[ scene_break ] belle : only one thing to do . you mean that you 're gon na leave mimi and i should leave philip and we 're gon na raise our baby together . shawn d. : no . that 's not what i mean . i 'm not leaving mimi . she is my wife , and you are married to philip . belle : but you and i love each other . we 're having a baby together , just like we planned . shawn d. : no , we did n't plan this baby , okay ? this baby was an accident . belle : no , it 's not . it 's meant to be , just like we are . it 's like fate is finally stepping in . shawn d. : you 're just making it harder for the both of us . belle : because you still love me . i know you do . shawn d. : it does n't matter how we feel or how we do n't feel . we are committed to other people . you are married to philip , and you have claire . and i would never , never want to break up your family any more than i would want to break my marriage vows to mimi . father jansen married us in good faith . belle : i did n't marry philip in good faith . my wedding vows were a lie . [ scene_break ] maggie : i hope you do n't mind us just popping by unannounced , but we were in the neighborhood . hope : are you kidding me ? of course i do n't mind . i always love seeing you and gran . and right now i could really use my family . maggie : that 's what we thought . alice : and the truth is , we 've been worried about you , dear . maggie : since hearing the news about the baby . hope : you mean that patrick 's the father . maggie : it does complicate things , does n't it ? hope : oh , yes , it does ... as though it was n't complicated enough already .. maggie : complicated or not , a new life is a wonderful gift . i am so thrilled for you . hope : thank you , maggie . alice : a new baby is always a blessing ... and especially this one . hope : gran , that 's how i feel -- like this baby is a gift from heaven , like -- like god ... had a conversation with zack and asked him to send him to me -- not to take his place -- i mean , no one could ever do that -- but to give me another chance to love another child . maggie : you were the best mom that zack could have ever asked for . and this baby is gon na be so blessed to have you as a mother . alice : but a child needs a father , as well -- two parents who not only love him , but love each other . hope : gran , i know . and it should be -- it should be that way in the perfect world . but the fact is , patrick is going to be a part of this child 's life , whether we 're together or not . but if there 's any chance -- any chance that bo and i can save our marriage , i mean ... maggie : well , then , your baby will have three parents to love him or her .. biology is n't everything . hope , you learned that with j.t . and mickey and i -- we learned that with melissa . hope : i know the happiest day in melissa 's life was when you adopted her .. but even still , it was hard . i remember . i remember the difficult time that her biological mother gave you and uncle mickey . maggie : oh , yeah , but it was worth it , trust me . true love -- true love wins in the end , hope , i promise you .

[ scene_break ] erica : jack , look , i 'm very sorry to put you in this position , but i had to act quickly . there was no time to check with you . jack : well , that 's awfully convenient . erica : jack , if i had n't made that deal with that reporter just now , asher 's attack on caleb would be all over the media . jack : attack ? erica : yes . asher has accused caleb of murder . jack : is this that `` stairs `` incident ? what , did caleb push this kid down the stairs ? erica : no , no . asher thinks that caleb killed asher 's mother . jack : caleb killed asher 's mother ? erica : no , of course he did n't kill asher 's mother . she actually died in a horrible accident right after she gave birth to their baby boy . and caleb gave asher up for adoption . and now after all these years , asher has found caleb , and he 's very angry . well , i mean , of course , he 's angry -- jack : i see . so he confronted him in front of the media . erica : yes , he did . and , jack , look , caleb and i are so close to the sec ruling in our favor . something like this could completely change their minds . jack : no , eric the sec is going to rule on cortlandt electronics based on the merits of the case , not caleb 's hotheaded kid going off in public . erica : that 's the way it should play out , but the board of the sec is just made up of flesh - and - blood men and women . if they saw that footage , that might make them never be able to see caleb in the same way . before they examine the facts , they may just decide they do n't like caleb . and that could delay our petition . it could even cancel our petition , which would -- we would never , ever get cortlandt back from chandler 's . jack , i promise to keep you out of this as much as possible . jack : it 's ironic , is n't it ? caleb finds a son , and i stand to lose a daughter . erica : any word from the jury ? jack : no . they 're still out . erica : greenlee will be acquitted . and caleb and i will get cortlandt back from chandler 's , and then we can focus on us . jack : oh , that 's something to look forward to , i guess . erica : i 'd love to start making it up to you right now . jack : yeah , that 's a lovely thought . lousy timing . greenlee 's on her way over to have a meeting right now . erica : all right , then . i 'll give you some privacy . jack : are you sure you want to be associated with this guy ? erica : ill see you later .

[ scene_break ] erica : you did not murder sonia . she ignored the barricade . she ran straight for the mine . you said that you did n't even know she was there until it was too late . caleb : erica , she wrote me dozens of letters . she wanted to come back . she wanted to start over again , but i did n't know that 'cause i only read the first one . erica : that does n't make you a murderer . caleb : yeah , but -- it was my pride that got in the way . it kept me from forgiving her right up until she died . erica : look , i ca n't tell you how to feel , but i do know how destructive it is to hold all those emotions in . i 've been there . talk to your son . tell him what you just told me . caleb : i 've tried . he wo n't listen . erica : you need to try again , for yourself as much as for asher . and no matter how he responds , at least he 'll know the truth . caleb : giving him away , i thought , was the best thing that i could do for him . all this time i imagined him happy and successful . and instead , he thought that i killed his mother and abandoned him . erica : you have to tell him the truth . caleb : there 's some things about his mother that he 's better off not knowing . [ scene_break ] annie : the building 's still standing . i half expected asher would still be taking caleb apart by now . j.r. : yeah . fathers and sons . annie : i have to admit , i almost felt sorry for caleb . j.r. : there 's a lot of hate out there . do n't waste your pity on cortlandt . he deserves it . annie : seeing asher and caleb like that , did n't it remind you of adam ? j.r. : a little . i was actually thinking about a.j . i never want that kind of relationship with my son . the competition , the anger , the misunderstandings . annie : then you wo n't have it . j.r. : what if it 's in the chandler dna ? this whole custody case with marissa does n't help . i do n't want my son coming to me saying , `` daddy , why did n't you fight harder ? why did you let me go so easily ? `` annie : but you are fighting for him . j.r. : that only counts if you win , and i will . a.j . will know just how much i want him , that he 'll never have a doubt that he 's the most important thing in my life . then and only then , we 'll have the kind of relationship that my father -- what ? what is it ? hey , tell me . annie : i 'm part of what is keeping you from having everything that you want . even if we 're not involved , i 'm something that they will all use against you . j.r. : i do n't give a damn what they think or say or do . i 'll win it all . a.j . will be with me and as far as we 're concerned , we have to know -- we have to trust that it wo n't always be like this . [ scene_break ] erica : maybe you should trust asher with the real story . caleb : and hurt him again ? erica : or maybe you just might set him free . if you do n't tell him , he 'll spend the rest of his life thinking the absolute worst of a man who was only trying to do his best for him . he 'll continue to suffer , and so will you . caleb : i abandoned the kid . erica : you were in shock . my goodness , the woman you loved had just died in your arms . caleb : when uncle pete turned him over to the family , i told him that i would be back and that i would be a father to my son , but i did n't . i never looked back . erica : i think you might have stayed on that mountain , but you never stopped looking back . caleb : kid was better off without me . he still is . erica : because he does n't know you , because he does n't know the man you 've become . [ scene_break ] colby : did you know it 's been medically proven when you keep it all inside , it wrecks the whole healing process , knees in particular ? asher : really ? colby : well , it 's possible . asher : you know , i 've had this plan in my head for years . rehearsed it over and over a million times -- what i would do , what i would say . one day , caleb would just look up and see the son that he just threw away -- be in his face , complete control , just grinding him into the dust . and -- did n't really go as planned . colby : it sounds like you still have a chance to slam him . asher : yeah , i got a chance . i thought it would be different , you know , better . i just feel -- the same .

[ johnny laughs ] olivia : by legal means . just stay out of this and let dante do his job . johnny : do his job ? 'cause he 's so good at that . like he did his job when sonny shot him pointblank in the chest and he lied about it . he could have put his father in prison like that , but he could n't do it . olivia : because he thought that sonny killed claudia , and he wanted him -- johnny : you know i 'm right , olivia . you just do n't want to face it , do you ? dante will always do whatever he can to protect sonny . he will throw innocent people under the bus . he 'll look the other way . he 'll bend the law , no matter what law sonny breaks . and if you 're on dante 's side now , you better bet your sweet ass you 're gon na be on sonny 's side in the end .

[ scene_break ] ethan : so , luke actually told you to stay away ? skye : in no uncertain terms . ethan : i mean , he loves tracy , but let 's face it , he lights up like the chinese new year every time you walk into the room . so if he can resist you , things must be bad . skye : i would agree . ethan : so where will you be hiding out ? skye : well , i would be leaving town , but i do have some unfinished business , and it 's nice to know i can find a back - up here when i need one . ethan : i 'm your man . what 's your game ? skye : oh , um , i 'm not sure you could handle it . ethan : oh , hey , my reputation may not be squeaky clean , but let 's face it , neither is luke 's . and if you trust him , you can trust me . skye : well , that 's true , but -- ethan : well , there you go . i rest my case . so what 's the problem ? skye : well , it 's about money . ethan : oh , see , i love money . skye : yeah , all locked up , but i ca n't get to it . and i need a good man to help me . ethan : good man at your service . skye : unfortunately , you 're a little bit late . ethan : well , if dad 's not available , then who else could you have in mind ? skye : oh , jax , there you are . thank you so much for coming . jax : how can i resist a phone call from my beautiful ex - wife ? what do you need ? skye : oh , where do i start ?

do you have any idea ? you know , the day that you made me president -- the day you made me president -- i actually believed for the -- but then you took it away . which you now know was a big mistake . eric : and this is your solution ? demanding we sell you the company ? thorne : yes . eric : thorne , you listen to me . you want to be part of this company again , you come back and work with us . do n't do it like this . thorne : you 've made that offer before . my answer 's still the same . stephanie : thorne , please . thorne : no , mother . it would be the same old , same old -- ridge and dad up here calling the shots , while they stick me down in the basement . stephanie : but it wo n't be that way this time , i 've told you . thorne : and i 'm telling you , i do n't want to go back . i want to move forward , and this is how we do it . ridge : oh , bull . i 'll say it again , this is total extortion . thorne : and i 'll say it again , it 's an offer . you can do what 's best for this family , its future , by accepting a huge amount of money for this company . or prepare to be hit hard . because as much as it would kill me to do it , i will bring forrester creations to its knees . brooke : thomas , did you hear me ? do i have your word that amber 's out of your life ? thomas : you and stephanie made pretty sure of that , did n't you ? brooke : we were acting in your best interests . i hope you understand that now . you do n't see it that way , do you ? it 's going to be okay . you are going to be okay . but you just have to -- thomas : forget about amber . yeah , i know . brooke : can you do that ? thomas : i 'm think i 'm going to take a drive , try and clear my head . brooke : i hate to see you go through this . we all do . but you are going to get through it . now that amber 's out of your life for good . amber : i ought to have my head examined for letting you in here . how 'd you find me , anyway ? caitlin : rick . he figured that you -- amber : where else would trailer trash like me go but back where i belong , right ? caitlin : amber -- amber : look , i do n't need this . so whoever sent you -- caitlin : no , i came on my own to thank you for doing the right thing , for protecting thomas from something that he 's not ready -- amber : okay , okay , that 's it . that 's it , okay ? you know what ? get the hell out of here ! caitlin : no , amber -- amber : no , get -- get out ! go ! no , you know what ? i do n't need this . i do n't need this , okay ? because whether you believe it or not , thomas and i , we had something special . no , that 's right , caitlin , it was n't ugly and it was n't bad . it was special . and if you think that it does n't hurt knowing that i 'm never going to be able to see thomas again , then you could not be more wrong . caitlin : amber , i 'm sorry , okay ? i did n't come here to upset you . i just -- look , i know how everyone has been coming down really hard on you , but -- amber : it had to be done . otherwise , i would ruin thomas ' life just like i ruined rick 's . right ? not that rick 's never hurt me , you know . caitlin : i 'm sure he never meant to . i know i did n't . but it did hurt , did n't it ? when rick moved on ? amber : that 's not what thomas and mine relationship is about . maybe at first , but it turned into something more , which i never expected , but before i realized it -- caitlin : it started feeling real . amber : no , no , no . it was real , caitlin . okay , it was just as real as you and rick . the only difference is , the forrester 's do n't hate you . so you guys got a break and thomas and i -- you know -- anyway , i backed off . and not because i think that there 's anything wrong with thomas and i being together , but because i did n't want to come between him and his family . or all of those great things that are gon na happen for him . and not that i 'm ever going to convince the forrester 's or you that i was n't using him , but , you know -- you know , i do n't care . i do n't care . oh , no , no , i do n't -- i do n't care that everyone thinks that i 'm not good enough , because you know what ? i 'm probably not . but i am good enough to do what 's best for him . which is why i 'm stuck in the middle of nowhere . and i 'm taking everything inside me and i 'm fighting so hard just not to pick up that phone and call him . and you know why ? because i know that that is gon na make it just that much harder for him . but i wo n't do it . i wo n't . and it does n't -- does n't matter how miserable i am . ridge : so what 's next , thorne ? you gon na take out an ad in the trades claiming you 've got forrester on the ropes ? thorne : no . no , ridge . like i said before , my next offer wo n't be as generous . and my offer after that -- ridge : it will be a lot less . yeah , we got that . well , thorne , for your information , dad and i have come up with a new line that 's gon na put forrester back on the maps . thorne : not according to my sources . word has it , you have n't come up with anything in days . eric : well , thorne , where did you hear that ? thorne : my pipeline is still open . which means , you do n't have to sell me this company , it 's already mine . ridge : not if we find your little rat on the inside . thorne : you wo n't , ridge . because i had their utmost loyalty . so , you see , whether you sell me this company or not , the future of forrester creations rests with me . now i bet you thought you 'd never hear that , huh , big brother ? [ knock on the door ] amber : oh , god , not caitlin again . oh ! oh , my god , thomas . thomas : you alone ? amber : yeah , yeah , yeah . wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , um -- thomas : what ? amber : i 'm not suppose to see you , remember ? thomas : oh , right , close your eyes . amber : what ? thomas : come on , close your eyes . close your eyes . now , can you see me ? amber : no . thomas : problem solved . amber : you are nuts , you know that ? you are . do you want me to wind up in jail ? thomas : it 's not gon na happen . the restraining order , it 's valid in l.a. county only . amber : yeah , but if anyone finds out you 're here -- thomas : they 're not going to . besides , i had to see you . i 've -- i 've missed you like crazy . amber : i 've missed you , too . thomas : i ca n't stop thinking about you . dreaming about you . you do n't know what it 's like . amber : yeah . i do . thomas : you really okay ? amber : hey , i 'm tough . i 'm gon na make it through this . thomas : no , we -- we will make it through this together . amber : what do you mean , `` together `` ? thomas : well , the restraining order says that you ca n't come see me , but it does n't say that i ca n't come see you . and that 's exactly what i 'm gon na do every chance i get . there 's no way -- there 's no way that i 'm letting you go , amber . no matter what anybody says or does . brooke : so the meeting 's still going on ? no . no , do n't interrupt them . thanks , megan . i hope this means the family 's finally resolving things -- coming together . ridge : was it really that bad being my little brother ? thorne : that 's not what this is about , ridge . ridge : well , yes , it is , thorne , only you saw it one way and i saw it another . thorne : meaning , you thought i liked growing up in your shadow ? that i liked being the brunt of your jokes ? ridge : i thought you knew it was all in fun . thorne : that it was just you being you , huh ? . ridge : now , wait a minute , wait a minute . now you 're telling us that i 've put you through all this grief for all these years . why did n't you speak up sooner if i hurt you this bad ? thorne : because i did n't have any confidence . i did n't have any self - esteem , ridge . because when you grow up feeling like that your whole life , you start to believe it . well , i have plenty of people who believe in me . and i have proven that i am not second best and that i do have a lot to offer . eric : your mother and i have never doubted that , thorne . not for one second . thorne : well , then you do what i 'm asking and you sell me this company . because i ca n't do what you 're asking . i ca n't . i ca n't just say all 's forgiven and just come back here . i wo n't , dad . i wo n't because i swear it would kill me . ridge : oh , for god 's sakes . thorne : i mean it , ridge . i mean it . i will not go down that road again ! not when i 'm fighting for my family , as well as for myself . darla and alexandria are my life -- my life -- and there is no way in hell -- god ! why ca n't you just believe in me for once the way that you 've always believed in him ? just once . you know what ? it 's not even -- it 's not even about that any more . it 's not even about me coming in here as the competition , even though in my heart -- i 'm through settling . i 'm through . i wo n't do it anymore , i ca n't do it anymore and i should n't have to do it anymore . stephanie : but , honey , your father and i have apologized to you . you know how sorry we are . he gave you the line . he 's told you everything will change if you come back . but just stop and realize what you 're asking . thorne : what i 'm asking ? it is n't anything that you would n't jump at the chance to do for ridge . you are the matriarch of this family . its conscience . and you know that . it 's my turn , mother -- mine . so you do whatever it takes to make it happen . you do it . i love this family . i love it . no matter how this may seem , i love it . present company included . you have 24 hours to think about it . stephanie : thorne , wait -- thorne : i 'm not changing my mind , mother . stephanie : i 'm not asking you to . thorne : and i 'm not apologizing for what i 'm doing . stephanie : you should n't have to . you 're only standing up for yourself . that 's something , as your mother , i should 've done for you a long time ago . but you 're doing it -- you 're doing it now , and that 's what counts . and as hard and tough as it is , i 'm proud of you . i 'm so proud of you . i just want this to be over , thorne . thorne : then do what i asked . i need this . make this happen .

well , bethie , this is n't quite the happy - ever - after you were hoping for , now , is it , honey ? i mean , for heaven sakes , you thought you were going to be mrs . luis by now , you know , at home with marty , with daddy earning the bacon . only thing is , you see , daddy is with sheridan and you are doomed to a life of waiting on spoiled yuppies who want their cafe macchiatos a little hotter . serves you right ! ah ! beth : oh . martin : you ca n't tell sheridan you 're her mother now . katherine : she might feel obligated to take my side over luis , and i do n't want that . i do n't want to be responsible for causing a rift between them . martin : then we should leave harmony as we planned . katherine : oh , martin , poor paloma . she 'll be devastated . now that she knows that you 're her father , she surely thinks we 're going to stay here . martin : i know . but she 'll get over it . and with us gone , she 'll turn back to luis and theresa and hopefully pilar . come on . we got to get out of here before sheridan comes back . luis : i feel a lot better now . sheridan : so do i . and i 'm so sorry you had to doubt my loyalty for even a minute . mrs. wheeler is just a stranger to me . but you 're everything . luis : you mean the world to me , too . sheridan : and as soon as we get in , i want to call pilar and make sure she understands that i never meant to side with mrs . wheeler over her . i do n't know why i let that woman get to me . singer : i would hold the hand of the one who could lead me places and kiss the lips of the one who could sing so sweet and i would fly on the wings of the bird i knew could take me highest breathe in , breathe out you keep me alive you are the fire burning inside of me you are my passion for life beth : oh -- oh , mother , i am sorry . my hand must have slipped . mrs. wallace : oh , yeah , right . you did that on purpose ! the lord knows you are a clumsy oaf ! beth : now , now , no need to draw attention to yourself . hey , why do n't you take marty and precious home and i 'll just call you later , ok ? mrs. wallace : fat chance . and i want a bandage for my burned hand . beth : oh , of course . mrs. wallace : ow ! beth : now , when you get home , put some cold compresses on it . i 'm sure it 'll be fine . mrs. wallace : if not , i 'm going to sue you for every penny you take in in this place -- beth : mother , people are looking . mrs. wallace : really ? let them look . as a matter of fact , i 'll give them something to look at . hey , precious , come on over here . show bethie - boo how to pour a cup of coffee . come on , because obviously she does n't know how . come on . here you go ! yeah , there . that 's what i call real service . her name is precious . first time as a waitress . do n't forget the tip , hmm ? beth : all right , mother -- mrs . wallace : what ? beth : stop it right now . take this obnoxious , smug animal out of my cafe . mrs. wallace : tsk , tsk , tsk , now , is n't that a terrible way to be talking to your son 's babysitter ? if precious and i were n't around , you know , you 'd have little marty here with you all day long , and i know you would n't want that , missy . beth : not one more word from you . mrs. wallace : you see , with little marty here safe at home , you do n't have to worry about sheridan stopping by for a sandwich , because -- oh -- they just light up when they see each other , because they really look like mother and son . not you two . beth : i 'm warning you , mother . one more taunt -- mrs . wallace : and what ? what are you going to do , bethie , huh ? you going to kidnap sheridan again , huh ? you going to steal her baby again , huh ? nah , no , missy . no , you see , you lost your accomplice . that 's not going to be happening . you are one lucky little lady , getting away with all those atrocities you did the last time . you are living on borrowed time , missy . this is a small town . and sheridan will be running into little marty again , especially now that she 's married to luis . beth : that was n't a real wedding in mexico . it 's not legal . mrs. wallace : it will be . and when luis stops by to see his son that he thinks he had with you -- guess who 's gon na be with him sheridan , sheridan , sheridan , sheridan , so i would be a little nervous , missy , because how long do you think it is going to take for this little marty to start being a spitting image of his beautiful mommy , huh ? hmm ? beth : get out , now . mrs. wallace : you know what , though ? i think you 're going to have to make marty wear a big hat or a paper bag over his head . mm - hmm . beth : you know what ? i have customers . mrs. wallace : hmm . not too many , by the looks of it . but again , that 's no wonder , is it , because you usually fail at everything you touch . how do you do it , bethie ? how do you look at yourself in the mirror every morning ? i 'd kill myself if i had you looking back at me . beth : i hate you . mrs. wallace : what else is new ? look . look . see ? it is already happening . you and luis have dark hair , dark eyes . little marty here -- oh , he 's so fair . beth : you know what ? you -- you do n't know what you 're talking about . mrs. wallace : huh . beth : genes -- they skip generations -- mrs . wallace : hmm . beth : all the time . there is no reason that marty has to look like either me or luis . mrs. wallace : i 'm just telling you what i see . and before long , a lot of other people are going to be putting this together . my guess is it 's going to be sheridan who 's going to be the first one , because you know how interested she is in little marty . beth : uh - uh , well , that 's not going to happen . mrs. wallace : and that is the day that precious and me -- we 're waiting for that day . oh , yes , the day that sheridan , sheridan puts it all together , gets luis back on the case . yep , that is the day that everything in your world is just going to -- boom ! -- blow up . and i 'm going to be standing there front row saying , `` i told you so . `` luis : what are you still doing here ? sheridan : i was hoping you 'd be gone by now . katherine : we 're on our way . martin : you know , the last thing we want to do is cause you any more trouble . luis : a little late for that . martin : i just , you know , wanted to say how sorry -- luis : not interested . martin : if there 's anything that i can do -- luis : you 've got a lot of nerve . martin : i hate what you think i did . luis : `` think `` ? you destroyed our family , papa ! well , what else is there ? martin : a lot . things i ca n't say . luis : why do n't you just save it ? i mean , i would n't believe a word out of your lying mouth anyway . you 're nothing to me , nothing but a bad memory i 'm going to spend the rest of my life trying to erase . martin : well , you know , i -- i just wanted to try and say goodbye and leave you something to remember me by . luis : i 've got a better idea . how about i give you something to remember me by , huh ? martin : luis -- sheridan : luis . luis : how about that ? huh ? ethan : it 's not going to work , all right ? theresa : what ? what , sitting on the couch ? because your wife told me to sit down . ethan : theresa , do n't . come on , you know what i 'm talking about . that little back - rubbing thing you pulled upstairs . it 's like you wanted gwen to walk in on us , you know ? theresa : oh . well , honestly , ethan , i had some pain in my lower back after the procedure . so it was completely innocent . ethan : right , right . just the way it always is with you , right ? theresa : wow . sounds to me like you think that i have some , like , irresistible power over you , ethan . i mean , i wish that i did . ethan : well , i do n't , all right ? i do n't . and no matter how often i tell you that we do n't have a future together , you refuse to believe it and you have this idea that we 're going to . it 's not going to happen . it just -- it just is not -- theresa : ok , why do n't you sit down for a second , please ? i did n't come down here to engage in some frivolous back - and - forth about fantasies , ok ? all i said was is that i have the strongest feeling that the baby i 'm carrying is the one that you and i made together . ethan : that does n't matter . it just does n't matter , because gwen is going to believe that it 's hers , and that 's going to be the end of that , all right ? theresa : i just feel that once this baby is born you 're not going to be able to resist the three of us being a family , ethan . it 's what you always wanted . hey -- ethan : hmm ? theresa : i 'm the mother of your child . i 'm not a monster . [ footsteps ] rebecca : keep your filthy hands off my daughter 's husband . fox : huh . whitney and i are having a baby . wow . ivy : what are you doing out here talking to yourself ? it 's cold . come inside . fox : right . yeah . [ fox whistles ] ivy : ok , what 's gotten into you ? why do you look like the cat who stumbled upon the canary ? fox : well , because , actually , i think i might have just stumbled on something better in the garbage . let me ask you a question . this is getting a little personal here , maybe a little weird , but , mom , have you by any chance taken any home pregnancy tests lately ? ivy : no . fox : i knew it ! i knew it ! ivy : oh ! oh . fox : i knew it , i knew it , i knew it , i knew it ! mom , it 's whitney . whitney is pregnant . ivy : well , what ? wait -- ok , no . you told me you were being careful , that -- that you did n't want to have kids right away . fox : no , no , no , no , we are being careful . but you know what ? accidents happen , and quite frankly , this is one that i could n't happier about . ivy : wait -- you said you found it outside in the garbage . fox : yes , exactly . ivy : well , you ca n't even be sure it 's whitney 's . it could be -- oh , god forbid , it could be jessica 's . sam will be devastated . fox : no , no , no , no . i do n't think sam has anything to worry about . look , jessica has n't been home in a while , right , and from what i understand , kay ca n't have any babies because of that whole bizarre story . so it 's whitney 's , mom . whitney 's pregnant . ivy : i do n't believe it . fox : no , it makes sense . look , she had me stop off at the drugstore last night , right , but she would n't tell me what she was buying . this is it . ivy : huh . fox : this is it . whitney 's pregnant . ivy : hmm . fox : congratulations , grandma . i 'm going to be a father . whitney : ok , come on , whitney , you can do this . ok . you 're going to leave harmony before anybody realizes that you 're pregnant . you 're going to go out of the state or out of the country and have the baby and give it up to loving , adoptive parents . and everyone is just going to think that you took a semester abroad . it 's going to be fine . ok . ahem . hey , what 's going on here ? fox : oh , nothing . we 're just , you know , celebrating the good news . whitney : what good news ? fox : the good news that i know everything . whitney , i know everything . i know that you 're having a baby . singer : you are my passion for life mrs .. wallace : every day , little marty here starts looking a lot more like his real mommy and a lot less like the psycho , whacko harridan that stole him . that would be you . beth : just get out of here now , mother . paloma : oh , my god . and people think we have strange customs in mexico . hot chocolate , please ? beth : do n't mind her . i 'll -- i 'll get it for you , ok ? paloma : um -- beth : ok , precious , get out . paloma : has -- has she -- he been working here long ? beth : oh -- ahem -- she does n't work here at all . she 's my mother 's caregiver . she helps out at home when i 'm here at work . paloma : no . beth : oh , yeah . you 'd be surprised at what she can do . she helps my mother shop , cook , clean -- all sorts of things . paloma : well , america 's certainly an amazing place . beth : oh , here you go . well -- well , are you from ? paloma : mexico . beth : oh . wait -- you -- you would n't be paloma , by any chance ? paloma : yes -- yes , i am . how did you know ? beth : well , luis -- he 's my -- well , he 's talked about you for years . and we 're very close -- i mean , we used to be . mrs. wallace : hey , what do you know ? paloma ! hi , there , honey ! paloma : hi . mrs. wallace : i 'm mrs . wallace ! it 's so good to meet you . hey , there , bethie , do n't you think that paloma would love to meet her new nephew , luis ' son ! paloma : yes ! oh , my god ! i 've heard about him ! marty , right ? mrs. wallace : yes ! beth : yeah , after -- after luis ' father -- and yours . paloma : yes . mrs. wallace : see ? paloma : oh , he 's adorable ! i ca n't figure out who he looks like -- you or luis . mrs. wallace : frankly , i do n't think he looks like either one of them . paloma : yeah , but he reminds me of somebody i know . mrs. wallace : oh . paloma : who could that be ? sheridan : luis , come on ! not again ! come on . stop . katherine : no matter what you think he did to you , he is still your father , luis . luis : yeah , do n't worry , i 'm not going to hurt him . i just want you to know it 's not over yet . martin : i told you i 'm going . you never have to lay your eyes on me again . luis : no , no , no -- what ? you think you can just waltz back into harmony and turn our lives upside down and then take off again ? oh , no . no way . sheridan : luis , i thought -- luis : i changed my mind . you 're not going anywhere , not till mama sees a lawyer . martin : a lawyer ? luis : yeah , that 's right . it 's time she filed for a legal divorce from you . she 's going to wipe you out , take you to the cleaners , take you for every cent you 've ever made . martin : hey , your mother can have all my money . i 'm afraid it 's not much . luis : that 's all right . for the rest of your life , every time you make so much as a nickel it 'll be mama 's . and then you 're going to pay her back for years of child support . unfortunately , you ca n't make up for the pain and suffering . martin : luis , i could work for the rest of my life and never be able to pay her back . luis : that 's ok . we 'll take the rest out in blood , sweat , and tears . in fact , i think i like that better anyway . theresa : hey . ethan : hey , what are you -- theresa : watch it ! you 're hurting me , rebecca ! rebecca : i have not even begun . now , you just keep your hands off my son - in- law . gwen : ok , here 's your warm milk . what 's going on here ? rebecca : same as always . i mean , you turn your back for a second and theresa is coming on to ethan . she was all over him . ethan : all right , no , not true , not true , ok ? gwen : ok , ethan , what is true ? ethan : theresa was trying to make a point . she put her hand on my shoulder , and as usual , your mother misunderstood the whole thing . let me tell you something , rebecca , i do n't appreciate you upsetting gwen or theresa . they 've been through hell the last 24 hours . and if you 're not considerate for her feelings , you could at least be considerate of your daughter . theresa , are you ok ? theresa : yeah . i mean , she pulled my arm hard , but , yes , i 'm fine . gwen : you still want this ? theresa : please . thank you . gwen : ok , i think you should just go upstairs to bed and get off your feet . theresa : all right . gwen , i really am grateful for everything that you 're doing for me . thanks . ethan : ahem . rebecca : ok , well , now i 've seen everything . i mean , after everything that that little tramp has put you through , you 're actually going to let her get away with more . gwen : mother , she is carrying my baby . rebecca : yeah , and she is also carrying a flaming torch for your husband . and if you ca n't see it , i really feel sorry for you . gwen : well , i do n't see it . i do n't see it . and , yes , theresa is nervy . but i do n't think that even she would take advantage of our desperation right now . i mean , would she ? ethan : no . no . of course not . she 's not trying to take advantage of us . your mother is just flipping out , as usual . look , i love you , i love you so much , and i 'm just looking forward to the future we 're going to have with our baby . and we 're going to have that no matter what theresa does , all right ? theresa : that 's what you think . fox : i wish you would have told me sooner about this . i would n't have known if i did n't come across your pregnancy test in the garbage . whitney : pregnancy test ? i do n't even know what you 're talking -- fox : now , wait , the pregnancy test , the pregnancy test you took last night . now , look , i 'm not an expert at these things , but i do know -- it says right on the box -- two pink lines , baby on the way . that 's what we got . whitney : yeah , but , fox , now , you do n't understand -- fox : and i know , i know , i know , i know , i know , i know , i know this is n't what we planned , we said we 'd wait a couple years , but i got to tell you , i am over the moon about this . i do n't think i 've ever been this excited in my entire life . whitney : but you know what ? you 've made a mistake . i am not pregnant . fox : well , how could that be ? whitney : well , i 'm not . i do n't know whose pregnancy test you found , but it was n't mine . fox : well , whitney , look , you do n't have to keep this a secret anymore , ok ? i already know . and i got to tell you , i 'm thrilled , i could n't be happier . mom , too . whitney : well , look , i 'm telling you , that pregnancy test you found was n't mine . fox : well , if it was n't yours , then whose is it ? i mean , it 's not my mother 's , and no one else is staying here right now . and what was with that trip to the drugstore we took last night ? whitney : well -- i mean , i told you , i -- i just wanted some aspirin . you know what i mean ? and i had a headache . i did n't want to worry you about it . ivy : well , there 's plenty of aspirin in the house , whitney . whitney : i thought you might have been out . fox : yeah . well , i 'm not buying it . look , first , you tell me it 's for a feminine product , right ? fine . then you tell me you have a queasy stomach . fine . we got to the drugstore last night , you wo n't let me come in with you , you do n't tell me what you 're buying , you come home with the bag in your hand , you rush into the bathroom . you camp out in there for about a half an hour . now , i know for a fact it does n't take me a half an hour to pop an aspirin ? mom ? ivy : no . fox : exactly . hey , look at me . whitney , you do n't have to be embarrassed about this , ok ? this is wonderful news . whitney : really ? fox : yeah . yeah , i mean , look , you and i -- we have been through so much lately , you with chad and me with my father and crane industries . i mean , do n't you think it 's about time that just a little bit of good news came our way ? and i know -- i know what you 're thinking . on the outside , i know i do n't look it , but i swear to you -- i swear to you -- i am going to be the best dad in the entire world to this baby . whitney : our baby ? fox : yeah . i mean , i 'm overjoyed . this is -- i feel like theresa , you know ? i think this is meant to be . you and i -- we 're going to be proud parents to a beautiful little baby . whitney : yeah , yeah , we 're going to have a baby . mrs .. wallace : well , you know what , paloma ? i always had the same feeling every time i look at little marty . i was just saying that to bethie before you walked in the door . you know , he reminds me of somebody , and it 's not luis and it 's not beth . is n't that peculiar ? i 'm just dying to know , who does this little , you know , blond - haired , blue - eyed little tyke remind you of ? hmm ? paloma : i do n't know . i 'm trying to think . beth : well , i was just telling my mother that it 's probably one of marty 's grandparents . you know , they say that it is just as likely for a child to look like his parents ' parents as it is his own mother or father . mrs. wallace : he does n't look like anybody in our family . beth : well , maybe it 's luis ' . paloma : no , no , that 's not it , no . beth : well , if you would have seen him when he was first born , paloma , he was the spitting image of his daddy , your brother luis . paloma : oh , i wish i had been here . i 've missed so many family things like that . mrs. wallace : oh , yeah , that must have been fun growing up in old mexico . i hear those mariachi singers are sexy beasts . beth : mother ! mrs. wallace : what ? she 's grown up . i 'm not saying anything that she should n't hear . beth : please forgive my mother . she says things sometimes . mrs. wallace : yeah -- paloma : oh -- oh , it 's ok . yes , a lot of mariachis are handsome , but not all . mrs. wallace : oh , mexico . boy , that 's a place i would n't mind living in . cuca - maracha . a lot less boring than harmony . paloma : yeah , it 's nice there , but my family was here . well , most of it . you might as well know . i do n't think luis would mind if i tell you . beth : well , what ? what 's happened ? paloma : it turns out that our father is alive . mrs. wallace : oh . paloma : he was living in the house i grew up in in mexico , but under a different name . beth : oh , my god . mrs. wallace : oh , i told you things were hopping down there . beth : wait -- i do n't understand . paloma : well , i thought he and his wife were just a nice couple living there , but he 's our father . mrs. wallace : oh . beth : but -- wait , you said something about a woman . are you saying that he married someone else after he left pilar , your mother ? paloma : yes . mrs. wheeler . mrs. wallace : and he had the nerve to bring her back up here ? well , that takes gall . paloma : mrs. wheeler has been like a second mother to me . but luis is very angry with her . i think he hates her almost as much as he hates my father . beth : wow . mrs. wallace : well , at least luis has the beautiful , lovely sheridan to comfort him in his hour of need . paloma : no . that 's the other problem . sheridan has become very attached to mrs .. wheeler , and that has caused big problems between luis and her . beth : hmm . you do n't say . hmm , i 'm sorry to hear that . luis : oh , no . you 're not leaving harmony , not till you pay mama back every cent . katherine : luis , please try and understand . your father never wanted any of you to suffer . luis : well , `` wanted `` does n't cut it . not that you 'd give a damn about that , knowing he was married with children all along . katherine : maybe it is best if we just leave . luis : i said you 're not leaving harmony . martin : we 've no place to stay . luis : well , that 's your problem , is n't it ? sheridan : you know what ? the bennett 's have a bed - and - breakfast and i 'm sure they have a room . martin : all right . we 'll try that . katherine : i 'm so sorry that our actions caused you so much damage . luis : look , save your breath , lady . you 're as bad as he is , if not worse . katherine : sheridan , i hope you wo n't hate me . sheridan : i think it 'd be best if we do n't contact each other ever again . luis and his mother are the only real family that i have . katherine : i understand . sheridan : and besides , you 're not the person that i thought you were . you lied to me . and i never would have been drawn to you in the first place if i had known the truth . and frankly , i wish i 'd never laid eyes on you . katherine : no . sheridan : i mean it . i never want to see you again . katherine : oh -- [ door closes ] sheridan : i should n't have been so harsh on her . luis : no , no , no , no . leave it . sheridan , that whore stole my mother 's husband , ok ? she does n't deserve any sympathy . sheridan : right . beth : well , i 'm really sorry to hear about this mrs .. wheeler coming between luis and sheridan . mrs. wallace : not . paloma : so you and luis are still friends , even though he 's with sheridan ? beth : oh , absolutely . we 're really close . i mean , for one thing , it 's better for marty if he has parents that get along , and , secondly , i 'm just crazy about sheridan . you know , she 's the best . mrs. wallace : yeah . paloma : that 's very civilized . well , it was so nice meeting you all . how much for the hot chocolate ? beth : oh , come on . you 're marty 's aunt . it 's on the house . paloma : why , thank you . beth : you 're welcome . mrs. wallace : hasta la vista ! paloma : adios . beth : hmm . i 've got a very good feeling about this . mrs. wallace : what did you just say ? beth : i ca n't wait to find out a little more about this woman that luis ' father has been living with . mrs. wallace : oh , you just want to stir up trouble between her and luis . beth : goodbye , mother . i 've got work to do . mrs. wallace : would n't you know it . just when i thought that luis and sheridan were safe from beth 's tricks , she comes up with another avenue of potential destruction . boy , i know my daughter . she is awful . she is not going to stop . no , she is not going to stop until she gets luis all to herself . martin : hey . katherine : oh , martin . i 've lost her again . this is worse than if i 'd never come back to harmony . martin : i know , i know . i mean , you got so close to sheridan . it was the next best thing to your real relationship to her . katherine : yeah . i could have lived just having her nearby , knowing that she cared about me . that would have been enough . martin : i 'm not so sure about that . how many times did you almost tell her that she was your daughter ? katherine : yeah . you 're right , i almost told her in there again . i thought -- i thought that if she knew that i was her mother she would n't turn against me . she would n't be able to . martin : honey , if she had taken your side , luis would have considered it the ultimate betrayal . katherine : oh , they love each other so much . martin : yeah . katherine : i would never want to come between them . i mean , at least she has one person that adores her that will take care of her , even if i ca n't be there for her . it just hurts so much , martin . martin : i know . i know how much you love her . katherine : i love her more than i ever could have imagined . she 's become the most beautiful , wonderful young woman . how am i going to live without her in my life ? how am i going to live hearing those words in my ears , her last words to me that she never wants to see me again ? martin : come here . luis : i know how hard that was for you . sheridan : please -- luis : and i appreciate it . sheridan : it 's all right . you know , mrs .. wheeler is just a stranger to me . you 're everything to me , though . you 're my life . it was n't a difficult decision at all . luis : sheridan , i know you better than that . sheridan : luis , i mean it . i really -- i never want to see that woman again . ok ? luis : ok . fox : well , i think this w le thing calls for an elaborate celebration . champagne -- no champagne -- sparkling water . sparkling water for everybody . come help me pour , mama - to - be . whitney : oh . fox : careful now . easy does it . ivy : hmm . you 'd think whitney would be thrilled with fox 's reaction . instead , she seems shocked , even horrified . i wonder how far along whitney is . hmm . fox : here we go . you just have a little seat . take a load off , ok ? i 'll take care of the drinks . from here on in , i 'll be waiting on you and the baby hand and foot . whitney : well , what about your mom ? why do n't i go get her ? fox : no , no , no , no , no . sit down , sit down , sit down . she 'll be in . it 's no big deal . she 'll come . i ca n't believe that you -- you did n't tell me about this . what 'd you think , i was n't going to be absolutely thrilled ? whitney : well , honestly , i did n't know what to think . fox : well , i 'll tell you what . this is the single greatest thing that 's ever happened to me in my entire life . you know ? mom , come on in . we got to have a proper toast . ivy : just one quick question . whitney , are you sure that the baby you 're carrying is fox 's , or might it be chad 's ? rebecca : you are both fools if you actually trust that little man - stealer . gwen : mother , i 'm warning you , not another word about theresa . ethan : you need to stop . do you realize she has lost two babies , all right ? first , sarah , and now one of the twins that theresa was carrying . gwen : i am not going to stand here and listen to you claim that i 'm going to lose another baby . i will not do it . rebecca : look , i am just trying to prepare you for the war that lies ahead . gwen : mother , you do n't even know what you 're talking about . there 's no way theresa 's going to deny me this baby that she 's carrying . and besides , she ca n't . theresa has no claim to her . this is our baby . theresa is only going to carry this baby to term for us . there is nothing more . theresa : ow ! ow ! ethan : theresa -- gwen : oh , my god . theresa : ugh . oh . ethan : what -- what is it ? what is it ? theresa : oh , god , it hurts . oh , ethan , i think i 'm losing the baby . ethan : oh , god . theresa : ow ! ethan : shoot . theresa : help , please ! ah ! chad : why ? what 's wrong ? ivy : tell him why you 're going to the hospital . alistair : i can do whatever i want . martin : you smug bastard . i 'm going to kill you for all the grief you 've caused . ethan : something 's wrong . something is really wrong .	rebecca tries to warn gwen and ethan that theresa is n't to be trusted , but they do n't want to hear it . meanwhile , theresa ends up doubled over in pain . at sheridan 's house , luis and sheridan tell the wheelers to go live at the b & b , and sheridan caps it off with the fact she never wants to see katherine again .	<s>[INST] whitney : i 'll go someplace far away and have the baby and let some kind , caring couple adopt him . it 's the only thing i can think to do . father lonigan : i 'm so sorry , whitney , but perhaps it 's the right decision under the circumstances . whitney : i could n't live with myself if i tried to pass this child off as fox 's . it just would n't be right . it 's not fair . father lonigan : unless you tell him the truth and let him make his decision . you say that he loves you . whitney : he does love me , which is exactly why i could n't possibly put fox in that position , father . no , placing my child up for adoption is the only answer . father lonigan : i 'll make some calls , help you find a place to go for the remainder of your pregnancy . whitney : thank you . thank you , father . thank you for everything , you know ? father lonigan : of course , my child . you and your baby are always in my prayers . whitney : yeah , and this way my baby is going to have a good home , you know , with parents who love him . and my secret will be safe forever . fox : well , someone in the bennett house is pregnant . it ca n't be my mom . kay does n't live here anymore . jessica has n't been home in weeks . that leaves whitney . that would explain the trip to the drugstore last night and why she took forever in the bathroom . what do you know . the woman of my dreams is going to make me a daddy . ethan : you know , this is the most relaxed i 've seen you in a very long time . you know that ? gwen : well , as hard as it is for me not to keep thinking about the baby we lost , there is just still so much to be grateful for and to look forward to . you know , honey , theresa 's going to deliver us a beautiful , healthy baby girl , and we are finally going to be the family that we have wanted to be for so long . it just really would n't feel right for me to keep dwelling on the sad part . ethan : yeah . theresa : you can say what you want , you can think what you want , but i know in my heart that fate has made it so this is our baby . and fate 's going to bring you back to me . gwen : what are you thinking about ? ethan : what am i thi -- the same thing you are . i 'm thinking about that baby . gwen : oh . it 's like waiting for a miracle . you know , honey , very shortly we are going to be sitting right here on this couch and we are going to have our new baby daughter in our arms . ethan : hmm . gwen : and i just want to thank you for being so understanding and realizing how truly important this is to me . you know i love you so much . ethan : theresa , hey . theresa : good morning . gwen : ok , what are you doing up ? theresa : i 'm -- i 'm totally fine , gwen . i just -- i just had this yearning for some warm milk , you know , like you made me last night . is it ok if i just go in the kitchen and heat it up myself ? gwen : no , you may not . theresa , you 're supposed to ring for me , or one of the servants and we 'll bring you whatever you need , remember ? look , i will get you your warm milk . you need to stay off your feet -- theresa : oh . gwen : so , please , just sit down , ok ? theresa : ok . thanks . gwen : ok . theresa : excuse me . sorry . hi . hi . ethan : hi . luis : all right , sweet angel , you stay put . i 'm going to grab us a couple lattes , ok ? beth : mother -- mrs . wallace : what ? beth : what are you doing here ? i told you never to bring that monkey in here again . mrs. wallace : orangutan ! they are far more intelligent and trainable than monkeys ever were . beth : look , i do n't care if she has an i.q . of 300 . she 's hairy , she has an attitude , and she scares my customers . mrs. wallace : well , i do n't think she can scare them any more than you do . besides , precious is quite pleasant to people , unlike you . [ mrs. wallace chuckles ] beth : hi , sweetheart . mommy wishes she could spend more time with you right now , but she 's just too busy , ok ? i 'll be right with you , ma'am . ok , i love you . love you . mrs. wallace : hey , precious , go on over there and sit down , wait for me , ok ? well , bethie , this is n't quite the happy - ever - after you were hoping for , now , is it , honey ? i mean , for heaven sakes , you thought you were going to be mrs . luis by now , you know , at home with marty , with daddy earning the bacon . only thing is , you see , daddy is with sheridan and you are doomed to a life of waiting on spoiled yuppies who want their cafe macchiatos a little hotter . serves you right ! ah ! beth : oh . martin : you ca n't tell sheridan you 're her mother now . katherine : she might feel obligated to take my side over luis , and i do n't want that . i do n't want to be responsible for causing a rift between them . martin : then we should leave harmony as we planned . katherine : oh , martin , poor paloma . she 'll be devastated . now that she knows that you 're her father , she surely thinks we 're going to stay here . martin : i know . but she 'll get over it . and with us gone , she 'll turn back to luis and theresa and hopefully pilar . come on . we got to get out of here before sheridan comes back . luis : i feel a lot better now . sheridan : so do i . and i 'm so sorry you had to doubt my loyalty for even a minute . mrs. wheeler is just a stranger to me . but you 're everything . luis : you mean the world to me , too . sheridan : and as soon as we get in , i want to call pilar and make sure she understands that i never meant to side with mrs . wheeler over her . i do n't know why i let that woman get to me . singer : i would hold the hand of the one who could lead me places and kiss the lips of the one who could sing so sweet and i would fly on the wings of the bird i knew could take me highest breathe in , breathe out you keep me alive you are the fire burning inside of me you are my passion for life beth : oh -- oh , mother , i am sorry . my hand must have slipped . mrs. wallace : oh , yeah , right . you did that on purpose ! the lord knows you are a clumsy oaf ! beth : now , now , no need to draw attention to yourself . hey , why do n't you take marty and precious home and i 'll just call you later , ok ? mrs. wallace : fat chance . and i want a bandage for my burned hand . beth : oh , of course . mrs. wallace : ow ! beth : now , when you get home , put some cold compresses on it . i 'm sure it 'll be fine . mrs. wallace : if not , i 'm going to sue you for every penny you take in in this place -- beth : mother , people are looking . mrs. wallace : really ? let them look . as a matter of fact , i 'll give them something to look at . hey , precious , come on over here . show bethie - boo how to pour a cup of coffee . come on , because obviously she does n't know how . come on . here you go ! yeah , there . that 's what i call real service . her name is precious . first time as a waitress . do n't forget the tip , hmm ? beth : all right , mother -- mrs . wallace : what ? beth : stop it right now . take this obnoxious , smug animal out of my cafe . mrs. wallace : tsk , tsk , tsk , now , is n't that a terrible way to be talking to your son 's babysitter ? if precious and i were n't around , you know , you 'd have little marty here with you all day long , and i know you would n't want that , missy . beth : not one more word from you . mrs. wallace : you see , with little marty here safe at home , you do n't have to worry about sheridan stopping by for a sandwich , because -- oh -- they just light up when they see each other , because they really look like mother and son . not you two . beth : i 'm warning you , mother . one more taunt -- mrs . wallace : and what ? what are you going to do , bethie , huh ? you going to kidnap sheridan again , huh ? you going to steal her baby again , huh ? nah , no , missy . no , you see , you lost your accomplice . that 's not going to be happening . you are one lucky little lady , getting away with all those atrocities you did the last time . you are living on borrowed time , missy . this is a small town . and sheridan will be running into little marty again , especially now that she 's married to luis . beth : that was n't a real wedding in mexico . it 's not legal . mrs. wallace : it will be . and when luis stops by to see his son that he thinks he had with you -- guess who 's gon na be with him sheridan , sheridan , sheridan , sheridan , so i would be a little nervous , missy , because how long do you think it is going to take for this little marty to start being a spitting image of his beautiful mommy , huh ? hmm ? beth : get out , now . mrs. wallace : you know what , though ? i think you 're going to have to make marty wear a big hat or a paper bag over his head . mm - hmm . beth : you know what ? i have customers . mrs. wallace : hmm . not too many , by the looks of it . but again , that 's no wonder , is it , because you usually fail at everything you touch . how do you do it , bethie ? how do you look at yourself in the mirror every morning ? i 'd kill myself if i had you looking back at me . beth : i hate you . mrs. wallace : what else is new ? look . look . see ? it is already happening . you and luis have dark hair , dark eyes . little marty here -- oh , he 's so fair . beth : you know what ? you -- you do n't know what you 're talking about . mrs. wallace : huh . beth : genes -- they skip generations -- mrs . wallace : hmm . beth : all the time . there is no reason that marty has to look like either me or luis . mrs. wallace : i 'm just telling you what i see . and before long , a lot of other people are going to be putting this together . my guess is it 's going to be sheridan who 's going to be the first one , because you know how interested she is in little marty . beth : uh - uh , well , that 's not going to happen . mrs. wallace : and that is the day that precious and me -- we 're waiting for that day . oh , yes , the day that sheridan , sheridan puts it all together , gets luis back on the case . yep , that is the day that everything in your world is just going to -- boom ! -- blow up . and i 'm going to be standing there front row saying , `` i told you so . `` luis : what are you still doing here ? sheridan : i was hoping you 'd be gone by now . katherine : we 're on our way . martin : you know , the last thing we want to do is cause you any more trouble . luis : a little late for that . martin : i just , you know , wanted to say how sorry -- luis : not interested . martin : if there 's anything that i can do -- luis : you 've got a lot of nerve . martin : i hate what you think i did . luis : `` think `` ? you destroyed our family , papa ! well , what else is there ? martin : a lot . things i ca n't say . luis : why do n't you just save it ? i mean , i would n't believe a word out of your lying mouth anyway . you 're nothing to me , nothing but a bad memory i 'm going to spend the rest of my life trying to erase . martin : well , you know , i -- i just wanted to try and say goodbye and leave you something to remember me by . luis : i 've got a better idea . how about i give you something to remember me by , huh ? martin : luis -- sheridan : luis . luis : how about that ? huh ? ethan : it 's not going to work , all right ? theresa : what ? what , sitting on the couch ? because your wife told me to sit down . ethan : theresa , do n't . come on , you know what i 'm talking about . that little back - rubbing thing you pulled upstairs . it 's like you wanted gwen to walk in on us , you know ? theresa : oh . well , honestly , ethan , i had some pain in my lower back after the procedure . so it was completely innocent . ethan : right , right . just the way it always is with you , right ? theresa : wow . sounds to me like you think that i have some , like , irresistible power over you , ethan . i mean , i wish that i did . ethan : well , i do n't , all right ? i do n't . and no matter how often i tell you that we do n't have a future together , you refuse to believe it and you have this idea that we 're going to . it 's not going to happen . it just -- it just is not -- theresa : ok , why do n't you sit down for a second , please ? i did n't come down here to engage in some frivolous back - and - forth about fantasies , ok ? all i said was is that i have the strongest feeling that the baby i 'm carrying is the one that you and i made together . ethan : that does n't matter . it just does n't matter , because gwen is going to believe that it 's hers , and that 's going to be the end of that , all right ? theresa : i just feel that once this baby is born you 're not going to be able to resist the three of us being a family , ethan . it 's what you always wanted . hey -- ethan : hmm ? theresa : i 'm the mother of your child . i 'm not a monster . [ footsteps ] rebecca : keep your filthy hands off my daughter 's husband . fox : huh . whitney and i are having a baby . wow . ivy : what are you doing out here talking to yourself ? it 's cold . come inside . fox : right . yeah . [ fox whistles ] ivy : ok , what 's gotten into you ? why do you look like the cat who stumbled upon the canary ? fox : well , because , actually , i think i might have just stumbled on something better in the garbage . let me ask you a question . this is getting a little personal here , maybe a little weird , but , mom , have you by any chance taken any home pregnancy tests lately ? ivy : no . fox : i knew it ! i knew it ! ivy : oh ! oh . fox : i knew it , i knew it , i knew it , i knew it ! mom , it 's whitney . whitney is pregnant . ivy : well , what ? wait -- ok , no . you told me you were being careful , that -- that you did n't want to have kids right away . fox : no , no , no , no , we are being careful . but you know what ? accidents happen , and quite frankly , this is one that i could n't happier about . ivy : wait -- you said you found it outside in the garbage . fox : yes , exactly . ivy : well , you ca n't even be sure it 's whitney 's . it could be -- oh , god forbid , it could be jessica 's . sam will be devastated . fox : no , no , no , no . i do n't think sam has anything to worry about . look , jessica has n't been home in a while , right , and from what i understand , kay ca n't have any babies because of that whole bizarre story . so it 's whitney 's , mom . whitney 's pregnant . ivy : i do n't believe it . fox : no , it makes sense . look , she had me stop off at the drugstore last night , right , but she would n't tell me what she was buying . this is it . ivy : huh . fox : this is it . whitney 's pregnant . ivy : hmm . fox : congratulations , grandma . i 'm going to be a father . whitney : ok , come on , whitney , you can do this . ok . you 're going to leave harmony before anybody realizes that you 're pregnant . you 're going to go out of the state or out of the country and have the baby and give it up to loving , adoptive parents . and everyone is just going to think that you took a semester abroad . it 's going to be fine . ok . ahem . hey , what 's going on here ? fox : oh , nothing . we 're just , you know , celebrating the good news . whitney : what good news ? fox : the good news that i know everything . whitney , i know everything . i know that you 're having a baby . singer : you are my passion for life mrs .. wallace : every day , little marty here starts looking a lot more like his real mommy and a lot less like the psycho , whacko harridan that stole him . that would be you . beth : just get out of here now , mother . paloma : oh , my god . and people think we have strange customs in mexico . hot chocolate , please ? beth : do n't mind her . i 'll -- i 'll get it for you , ok ? paloma : um -- beth : ok , precious , get out . paloma : has -- has she -- he been working here long ? beth : oh -- ahem -- she does n't work here at all . she 's my mother 's caregiver . she helps out at home when i 'm here at work . paloma : no . beth : oh , yeah . you 'd be surprised at what she can do . she helps my mother shop , cook , clean -- all sorts of things . paloma : well , america 's certainly an amazing place . beth : oh , here you go . well -- well , are you from ? paloma : mexico . beth : oh . wait -- you -- you would n't be paloma , by any chance ? paloma : yes -- yes , i am . how did you know ? beth : well , luis -- he 's my -- well , he 's talked about you for years . and we 're very close -- i mean , we used to be . mrs. wallace : hey , what do you know ? paloma ! hi , there , honey ! paloma : hi . mrs. wallace : i 'm mrs . wallace ! it 's so good to meet you . hey , there , bethie , do n't you think that paloma would love to meet her new nephew , luis ' son ! paloma : yes ! oh , my god ! i 've heard about him ! marty , right ? mrs. wallace : yes ! beth : yeah , after -- after luis ' father -- and yours . paloma : yes . mrs. wallace : see ? paloma : oh , he 's adorable ! i ca n't figure out who he looks like -- you or luis . mrs. wallace : frankly , i do n't think he looks like either one of them . paloma : yeah , but he reminds me of somebody i know . mrs. wallace : oh . paloma : who could that be ? sheridan : luis , come on ! not again ! come on . stop . katherine : no matter what you think he did to you , he is still your father , luis . luis : yeah , do n't worry , i 'm not going to hurt him . i just want you to know it 's not over yet . martin : i told you i 'm going . you never have to lay your eyes on me again . luis : no , no , no -- what ? you think you can just waltz back into harmony and turn our lives upside down and then take off again ? oh , no . no way . sheridan : luis , i thought -- luis : i changed my mind . you 're not going anywhere , not till mama sees a lawyer . martin : a lawyer ? luis : yeah , that 's right . it 's time she filed for a legal divorce from you . she 's going to wipe you out , take you to the cleaners , take you for every cent you 've ever made . martin : hey , your mother can have all my money . i 'm afraid it 's not much . luis : that 's all right . for the rest of your life , every time you make so much as a nickel it 'll be mama 's . and then you 're going to pay her back for years of child support . unfortunately , you ca n't make up for the pain and suffering . martin : luis , i could work for the rest of my life and never be able to pay her back . luis : that 's ok . we 'll take the rest out in blood , sweat , and tears . in fact , i think i like that better anyway . theresa : hey . ethan : hey , what are you -- theresa : watch it ! you 're hurting me , rebecca ! rebecca : i have not even begun . now , you just keep your hands off my son - in- law . gwen : ok , here 's your warm milk . what 's going on here ? rebecca : same as always . i mean , you turn your back for a second and theresa is coming on to ethan . she was all over him . ethan : all right , no , not true , not true , ok ? gwen : ok , ethan , what is true ? ethan : theresa was trying to make a point . she put her hand on my shoulder , and as usual , your mother misunderstood the whole thing . let me tell you something , rebecca , i do n't appreciate you upsetting gwen or theresa . they 've been through hell the last 24 hours . and if you 're not considerate for her feelings , you could at least be considerate of your daughter . theresa , are you ok ? theresa : yeah . i mean , she pulled my arm hard , but , yes , i 'm fine . gwen : you still want this ? theresa : please . thank you . gwen : ok , i think you should just go upstairs to bed and get off your feet . theresa : all right . gwen , i really am grateful for everything that you 're doing for me . thanks . ethan : ahem . rebecca : ok , well , now i 've seen everything . i mean , after everything that that little tramp has put you through , you 're actually going to let her get away with more . gwen : mother , she is carrying my baby . rebecca : yeah , and she is also carrying a flaming torch for your husband . and if you ca n't see it , i really feel sorry for you . gwen : well , i do n't see it . i do n't see it . and , yes , theresa is nervy . but i do n't think that even she would take advantage of our desperation right now . i mean , would she ? ethan : no . no . of course not . she 's not trying to take advantage of us . your mother is just flipping out , as usual . look , i love you , i love you so much , and i 'm just looking forward to the future we 're going to have with our baby . and we 're going to have that no matter what theresa does , all right ? theresa : that 's what you think . fox : i wish you would have told me sooner about this . i would n't have known if i did n't come across your pregnancy test in the garbage . whitney : pregnancy test ? i do n't even know what you 're talking -- fox : now , wait , the pregnancy test , the pregnancy test you took last night . now , look , i 'm not an expert at these things , but i do know -- it says right on the box -- two pink lines , baby on the way . that 's what we got . whitney : yeah , but , fox , now , you do n't understand -- fox : and i know , i know , i know , i know , i know , i know , i know this is n't what we planned , we said we 'd wait a couple years , but i got to tell you , i am over the moon about this . i do n't think i 've ever been this excited in my entire life . whitney : but you know what ? you 've made a mistake . i am not pregnant . fox : well , how could that be ? whitney : well , i 'm not . i do n't know whose pregnancy test you found , but it was n't mine . fox : well , whitney , look , you do n't have to keep this a secret anymore , ok ? i already know . and i got to tell you , i 'm thrilled , i could n't be happier . mom , too . whitney : well , look , i 'm telling you , that pregnancy test you found was n't mine . fox : well , if it was n't yours , then whose is it ? i mean , it 's not my mother 's , and no one else is staying here right now . and what was with that trip to the drugstore we took last night ? whitney : well -- i mean , i told you , i -- i just wanted some aspirin . you know what i mean ? and i had a headache . i did n't want to worry you about it . ivy : well , there 's plenty of aspirin in the house , whitney . whitney : i thought you might have been out . fox : yeah . well , i 'm not buying it . look , first , you tell me it 's for a feminine product , right ? fine . then you tell me you have a queasy stomach . fine . we got to the drugstore last night , you wo n't let me come in with you , you do n't tell me what you 're buying , you come home with the bag in your hand , you rush into the bathroom . you camp out in there for about a half an hour . now , i know for a fact it does n't take me a half an hour to pop an aspirin ? mom ? ivy : no . fox : exactly . hey , look at me . whitney , you do n't have to be embarrassed about this , ok ? this is wonderful news . whitney : really ? fox : yeah . yeah , i mean , look , you and i -- we have been through so much lately , you with chad and me with my father and crane industries . i mean , do n't you think it 's about time that just a little bit of good news came our way ? and i know -- i know what you 're thinking . on the outside , i know i do n't look it , but i swear to you -- i swear to you -- i am going to be the best dad in the entire world to this baby . whitney : our baby ? fox : yeah . i mean , i 'm overjoyed . this is -- i feel like theresa , you know ? i think this is meant to be . you and i -- we 're going to be proud parents to a beautiful little baby . whitney : yeah , yeah , we 're going to have a baby . mrs .. wallace : well , you know what , paloma ? i always had the same feeling every time i look at little marty . i was just saying that to bethie before you walked in the door . you know , he reminds me of somebody , and it 's not luis and it 's not beth . is n't that peculiar ? i 'm just dying to know , who does this little , you know , blond - haired , blue - eyed little tyke remind you of ? hmm ? paloma : i do n't know . i 'm trying to think . beth : well , i was just telling my mother that it 's probably one of marty 's grandparents . you know , they say that it is just as likely for a child to look like his parents ' parents as it is his own mother or father . mrs. wallace : he does n't look like anybody in our family . beth : well , maybe it 's luis ' . paloma : no , no , that 's not it , no . beth : well , if you would have seen him when he was first born , paloma , he was the spitting image of his daddy , your brother luis . paloma : oh , i wish i had been here . i 've missed so many family things like that . mrs. wallace : oh , yeah , that must have been fun growing up in old mexico . i hear those mariachi singers are sexy beasts . beth : mother ! mrs. wallace : what ? she 's grown up . i 'm not saying anything that she should n't hear . beth : please forgive my mother . she says things sometimes . mrs. wallace : yeah -- paloma : oh -- oh , it 's ok . yes , a lot of mariachis are handsome , but not all . mrs. wallace : oh , mexico . boy , that 's a place i would n't mind living in . cuca - maracha . a lot less boring than harmony . paloma : yeah , it 's nice there , but my family was here . well , most of it . you might as well know . i do n't think luis would mind if i tell you . beth : well , what ? what 's happened ? paloma : it turns out that our father is alive . mrs. wallace : oh . paloma : he was living in the house i grew up in in mexico , but under a different name . beth : oh , my god . mrs. wallace : oh , i told you things were hopping down there . beth : wait -- i do n't understand . paloma : well , i thought he and his wife were just a nice couple living there , but he 's our father . mrs. wallace : oh . beth : but -- wait , you said something about a woman . are you saying that he married someone else after he left pilar , your mother ? paloma : yes . mrs. wheeler . mrs. wallace : and he had the nerve to bring her back up here ? well , that takes gall . paloma : mrs. wheeler has been like a second mother to me . but luis is very angry with her . i think he hates her almost as much as he hates my father . beth : wow . mrs. wallace : well , at least luis has the beautiful , lovely sheridan to comfort him in his hour of need . paloma : no . that 's the other problem . sheridan has become very attached to mrs .. wheeler , and that has caused big problems between luis and her . beth : hmm . you do n't say . hmm , i 'm sorry to hear that . luis : oh , no . you 're not leaving harmony , not till you pay mama back every cent . katherine : luis , please try and understand . your father never wanted any of you to suffer . luis : well , `` wanted `` does n't cut it . not that you 'd give a damn about that , knowing he was married with children all along . katherine : maybe it is best if we just leave . luis : i said you 're not leaving harmony . martin : we 've no place to stay . luis : well , that 's your problem , is n't it ? sheridan : you know what ? the bennett 's have a bed - and - breakfast and i 'm sure they have a room . martin : all right . we 'll try that . katherine : i 'm so sorry that our actions caused you so much damage . luis : look , save your breath , lady . you 're as bad as he is , if not worse . katherine : sheridan , i hope you wo n't hate me . sheridan : i think it 'd be best if we do n't contact each other ever again . luis and his mother are the only real family that i have . katherine : i understand . sheridan : and besides , you 're not the person that i thought you were . you lied to me . and i never would have been drawn to you in the first place if i had known the truth . and frankly , i wish i 'd never laid eyes on you . katherine : no . sheridan : i mean it . i never want to see you again . katherine : oh -- [ door closes ] sheridan : i should n't have been so harsh on her . luis : no , no , no , no . leave it . sheridan , that whore stole my mother 's husband , ok ? she does n't deserve any sympathy . sheridan : right . beth : well , i 'm really sorry to hear about this mrs .. wheeler coming between luis and sheridan . mrs. wallace : not . paloma : so you and luis are still friends , even though he 's with sheridan ? beth : oh , absolutely . we 're really close . i mean , for one thing , it 's better for marty if he has parents that get along , and , secondly , i 'm just crazy about sheridan . you know , she 's the best . mrs. wallace : yeah . paloma : that 's very civilized . well , it was so nice meeting you all . how much for the hot chocolate ? beth : oh , come on . you 're marty 's aunt . it 's on the house . paloma : why , thank you . beth : you 're welcome . mrs. wallace : hasta la vista ! paloma : adios . beth : hmm . i 've got a very good feeling about this . mrs. wallace : what did you just say ? beth : i ca n't wait to find out a little more about this woman that luis ' father has been living with . mrs. wallace : oh , you just want to stir up trouble between her and luis . beth : goodbye , mother . i 've got work to do . mrs. wallace : would n't you know it . just when i thought that luis and sheridan were safe from beth 's tricks , she comes up with another avenue of potential destruction . boy , i know my daughter . she is awful . she is not going to stop . no , she is not going to stop until she gets luis all to herself . martin : hey . katherine : oh , martin . i 've lost her again . this is worse than if i 'd never come back to harmony . martin : i know , i know . i mean , you got so close to sheridan . it was the next best thing to your real relationship to her . katherine : yeah . i could have lived just having her nearby , knowing that she cared about me . that would have been enough . martin : i 'm not so sure about that . how many times did you almost tell her that she was your daughter ? katherine : yeah . you 're right , i almost told her in there again . i thought -- i thought that if she knew that i was her mother she would n't turn against me . she would n't be able to . martin : honey , if she had taken your side , luis would have considered it the ultimate betrayal . katherine : oh , they love each other so much . martin : yeah . katherine : i would never want to come between them . i mean , at least she has one person that adores her that will take care of her , even if i ca n't be there for her . it just hurts so much , martin . martin : i know . i know how much you love her . katherine : i love her more than i ever could have imagined . she 's become the most beautiful , wonderful young woman . how am i going to live without her in my life ? how am i going to live hearing those words in my ears , her last words to me that she never wants to see me again ? martin : come here . luis : i know how hard that was for you . sheridan : please -- luis : and i appreciate it . sheridan : it 's all right . you know , mrs .. wheeler is just a stranger to me . you 're everything to me , though . you 're my life . it was n't a difficult decision at all . luis : sheridan , i know you better than that . sheridan : luis , i mean it . i really -- i never want to see that woman again . ok ?

why would you say that ? nicole : well , i just saw you two hanging out at the horton town square , and it looked like you were hitting it off , so ... jennifer : we are friends , nicole . nicole : i know that . i know , but you two are , you know , going through a terrible time right now . must be nice to have someone like him to lean on . jennifer : mm . you mean instead of daniel ? anne : this is for jennifer horton . it 's her office assignment . maxine : b-102 ? is this for real ? anne : that 's what it says , is n't it ? daniel : uh , hold on there a second , uh , anne . anne : mm - hmm ? daniel : did you forget our little discussion that we had the other day ? anne : uh , discussion ? daniel : yeah , the one about how lucky we all are to have jennifer horton working for us and about how all of us , you in particular , are going to welcome her with open arms ? anne : i simply assigned the woman an office . daniel : yeah , that 's right , you did . b-102 . `` b `` as in basement . anne : i do n't know what you 're accusing me -- daniel : you know what i 'm accusing you of ? of thinking that just because she got the job that you coveted that you could stab jennifer horton in the back . well , it is not gon na happen . chad : melanie nearly died because of you . and there is no way you 'll be part of our wedding . this ca n't happen . gabi : what does that mean ? chad : it 's over . gabi : over ? okay , w -- you 're saying that you 're gon na tell melanie exactly what i did ? chad : all of it -- everything you did , what you knew about andrew . gabi : if you tell melanie , she 's gon na hate me . chad : no kidding . gabi : well , what about you ? chad : what about me ? gabi : well , i mean , you 've known this whole time , and you have n't said anything to her . how do you think melanie 's gon na feel when she hears about that ? melanie : but you heard already ? maggie : oh , word gets around . melanie : i know . i just wanted to tell you myself . do you like it ? maggie : [ gasps ] it 's beautiful . melanie : so i figured you could help me plan the wedding . wo n't that be fun ? maggie : yes , it will be , of course . melanie : um , i figured you would already have ideas about , like , dresses and flowers and , like , who should sit next to who . maggie : well , it 's your wedding , melanie . i do n't want to impose . and we 'll figure it all out together . melanie : you do n't really sound ... very thrilled about this . sonny : out of curiosity , when t told you i was n't interested in brian ... did he mention anything else about me ? will : what do you mean anything else ? sonny : just , you know , anything . will : uh , i mean , like , maybe if there 's somebody else you might be interested in ? sonny : more or less . will : yeah ? um ... yeah , actually . come to think of it , he did . rafe : god . brady : whoa . what 's wrong ? rafe : i 'm an idiot . that 's what 's wrong . ej : you look stunning . sami : thank you . ej : are we ready to go ? unless you have something you 'd rather do this evening . is there a problem ? sami : ej , i ca n't go out with you tonight . brady : what 's going on ? rafe : sami . brady : [ sighs ] sami , yeah . what about her ? rafe : ah , it 's just ... it 's kind of embarrassing , really . brady : it 's embarrassing ? rafe : mm . brady : after everything you guys have been through -- rafe : yeah , we kissed , all right ? we kissed . brady : that 's a bad thing ? rafe : [ scoffs ] ej : you 're canceling our date ... when i 'm standing here ? i 'm in your living room , samantha . i 'm ready to go . come on . so i have the most wonderful surprise planned for you . i promise you . sami : i know -- no , no . you know what ? no . i 'm -- i 'm serious . i really ca n't . something came up . ej : something -- what came up exactly ? sami : well , i forgot that allie has a school project , and -- and she just -- it 's due tomorrow . ej : samantha , we made this arrangement yesterday . it was your idea . sami : well , i know that , but i forgot about the project . i 'm really sorry . ej : you 're a gifted liar , samantha , but you 're not that good . is this because of what i walked in on earlier ? is this because of rafe ? sonny : so t told you that i was interested in you ? will : mm - hmm . and he also said that , um , you did n't think that i was interested in you . sonny : well , that 's 'cause i know that you are n't , so ... will : no . i mean , i ... you 're -- i mean , i -- you 're wrong . sonny : um , but the -- the night that i wanted -- i tried to help -- help you -- will : yeah , i know , i was messed up . and it was n't you . i mean , you were trying to help me , and i realize that . and i came to find you , you know , to kind of tell you how i felt , but ... sonny : uh , you saw me with , uh -- with brian . will : yeah . sonny : mm - hmm . will : that 's where i really messed things up . anyway , so i figured that you were with brian , you know , and that you were ... kind of ... sonny : kind of what ? will : i do n't know -- out of my league . sonny : out of your league ? will : yeah . out of my league . i do n't -- i do n't know . i 'm new to this , like i said . and i probably let that mess with my head . i 'm sorry . and this whole thing has been my fault , so is there any way that you can forgive me ? maggie : melanie ... i just want to make sure that this is all happening for the right reasons . melanie : it is . i love chad so much . he loves me so much . maggie : but you 're in such a hurry to get married . melanie : you think i feel threatened ? maggie : it 's hard not to think that . melanie : this has nothing to do with nick . maggie : melanie , i saw your face when you ran into nick yesterday . you could n't get out of here fast enough . melanie : because i was surprised , not scared , and i had somewhere else i was supposed to be . you know how much i want this . i have always wanted just a relationship where somebody loves me and it 's real and it 's honest . chad : so what are you saying , gabi -- that if i tell melanie that you knew about andrew all along , you 're gon na turn it around on me ? gabi : look , i tried to tell melanie . i know that i did things wrong . but you know what ? you tried to stop me , okay ? chad : because she was freaked out enough over nick 's parole hearing , okay ? she did n't need to know that the real enemy was right in front of her . gabi : i get it -- you were trying to protect her . your heart was in the right place -- i understand . chad : yeah , uh - huh , all the good that 's done , right ? gabi : i am not the enemy , chad . you know , nick is always going to be an issue for her , especially now that he 's staying in salem and working at the pub . chad : whoa , whoa , whoa . what -- what did you just say ? gabi : oh , you did n't know ? mrs. brady hired him . chad : i do n't believe this . gabi : that 's why she needs her friends now more than ever . chad : oh , do n't you talk like you 're one of her friends . get over yourself ! gabi : chad , look , i know i messed up , and i know that if she finds out , that 's gon na crush her . when she finds out what you did ... lying to her ... covering stuff up ... she 's gon na be destroyed . daniel : so i suppose it 's just a fluke that jennifer 's been given an office , say , in the basement . anne : it was the largest space available at the moment . daniel : you know , she really does n't need large . she needs to be online . you really want to go up against me on this , anne ? no . you do n't . nicole : jennifer , why are you being so defensive ? i 'm just trying to be positive and forward - looking for you . jennifer : `` forward - looking `` ? nicole : yes . brady is a great guy , and you and he , sadly , share something that you , no doubt , could help . that 's the only point i was trying to make . jennifer : i have to get to work . nicole : okay , just one more thing . since you brought up the subject of daniel ... i just hope i did n't offend you the other day . jennifer : oh , when you accused me of pushing him aside ? no , i did n't take offense to that at all , nicole . nicole : i 'm sorry if you think that was the point i was trying to make -- jennifer : no , but i think you were making yourself very clear that the best thing i can do for daniel is to give him space . i understand . nicole : look , i do n't mean to harp on it . that 's just what i 'm getting from him . i know that you do n't want to play mind games with him , no matter how unintentional it may be . jennifer : i 'll see you later . nicole : [ sighs ] and off she goes to work with daniel . [ scoffs ] hmm . well , with the number i just pulled , she 'll probably keep her distance , but ... just in case she does n't ... melanie : what chad and i have is real . maggie : melanie , i never doubted your love for chad . melanie : i know . and i was hung up on the fact that he 's a dimera . but that 's not who he is . maggie : of course not . but that 's not what i 'm concerned about . melanie : you do n't need to be concerned about anything . i called my mom . she 's happy . she 's totally fine with it . she and my brother are gon na come out for the wedding . maggie : that 's wonderful . melanie : it would be ... if you were happy too . maggie : come here . i am happy for you . we are gon na have so much fun planning the perfect wedding for you and chad . so ... when is your mom coming ? melanie : uh , she does n't know . she does n't have her schedule yet . [ sighs ] i was thinking maybe i would go , um -- go see her in europe first . maggie : i -- yes , i think you should go visit her definitely . melanie : i know , i just -- i do n't want to leave chad right now , so maybe i 'll just wait until the wedding . maggie : uh , does that mean you 've set a date ? melanie : no . no , no , no , we 're gon na have a long engagement . maggie : [ laughing ] oh , good . of course . yes . melanie : okay , i have to go . but having your support means ... everything . maggie : you have it ... always . i love you so much . [ crying ] melanie : i love you too . okay . okay . i will , uh -- i 'll call you . maggie : okay . melanie : okay . [ giggles ] maggie : [ sighs ] she 's not in a rush . oh , thank god . chad : all i wanted was for melanie to feel safe , and you messed it up . gabi : me ? really ? look , i am not the reason that nick got paroled , chad . chad : you hired andrew to stalk you . that 's how all this started . gabi : what ? look , all i wanted was for you to notice me -- that 's it . chad : so what are you saying ? this is my fault now ? gabi : yeah , maybe if you would have told me that it was never gon na happen between us , then i would -- chad : are you serious right now ? i had no idea how you felt about me . gabi : really ? [ scoffs ] how could you not ? i mean , did you -- let me -- did you look at me just once , maybe ? once ? chad : you know what ? i wish i did . maybe then i would have realized what a nut job you are and what you were capable of . gabi : or maybe you just liked the idea of me fawning all over you . chad : oh , yep , you know what ? that 's it . that 's what i live for -- being stalked by some lunatic girl who does n't care if someone dies , as long as they get my freakin ' attention ! gabi : chad ... this is not all on me , all right ? if you -- if you would have noticed me , noticed how i felt -- you know what ? you could have told me `` gabi , this is never gon na happen for us . i am never gon na be able to love you . `` then maybe , maybe none of this would have ever happened to melanie . [ doorbell rings ] maggie : okay , what did you forget ? nicole ? nicole : hi , maggie . i - i 'm sorry just to stop by . may i come in , or is the warden standing guard somewhere ? maggie : uh , no , i mean , you can come in , but , uh ... victor 's not at home . nicole : thank you . maggie : nicole , what can i do for you ? nicole : oh , um ... well , daniel told me he 'd talk to you about letting me stay here , and he said that you were willing , despite my history with victor . [ both chuckle ] maggie : nicole , i know you did n't come all the way over here just to thank me for that . nicole : yeah , of -- of course i did . i - i mean , i 'm so grateful that you stuck your neck out for me . you 're an angel . maggie : that 's it ? nicole : no . i 'm -- i 'm here because of jennifer . i 'm really concerned about her . maggie : and why is that ? nicole : i just -- i feel like she 's under a lot of pressure . maggie : nicole , what kind of pressure ? nicole : do you know she 's gone back to the hospital ? she 's working there again . she 's got her job back . maggie : no . no , i did n't know that . nicole : oh . well , that 's odd she did n't share that information with you . i - i just think it 's impulsive , you know ? i - i 'm just not sure she can emotionally handle that stress on a day - to - day basis . maggie : okay , you 're telling me this why ? i mean , what exactly do you suggest that i do , nicole ? nicole : i think jennifer needs to -- to get away ... with you , and i know she adores you , and it would help her escape from her sadness and the memories . but for poor jennifer 's sake , the sooner you leave , the better . maxine : it 's so good to have you back . jennifer : thank you . it is so good to be back , maxine . this is great . now i just need to figure out where they 're putting me . maxine : oh , do n't worry . i got a feeling you 'll have the best office here . jennifer : why do you say that ? maxine : because of the way dr. dan went off on that ... nasty woman in h.r . jennifer : wait . what ? what nasty woman ? maxine : anne . you remember her . she wanted your job . she was gon na put you in the basement , but he stepped in , made her rethink that nonsense . [ chuckles ] he 's got your back , girl . daniel : hi . jennifer : hey . daniel : welcome back . jennifer : thank you . hey , i - i heard about what you just did . daniel : i 'm sorry -- what did i do ? jennifer : uh , my -- my office and -- and anne -- what you did for me . daniel : oh , that . you know , it was n't -- i -- jennifer : yeah , i really wish that you had n't . i realize that you 're trying to help , but i want you to know that i can take care of myself . rafe : she 's crazy . you know that -- brady : hmm . rafe : reckless , impulsive . brady : yep , and you are done with her , right ? rafe : yeah , i am . i am done with her . i do not need or want that kind of craziness in my life . brady : i hear you . rafe : what am i supposed to do ? she was my wife . i was married to her . i raised children with her . huh ? what am i gon na do ? i 'm just gon na let her self - destruct with the jerk ? brady : `` the jerk `` ? oh , i assume you mean our , uh , favorite person in the world ? rafe : yeah , ej . who the hell else , right ? brady : mm - hmm . rafe : and after everything that he 's done to her , the ways he 's hurt her , not to mention the stuff that she 's pulled on him -- do they not realize that they 're toxic together ? brady : are they together ? rafe : oh , who the hell knows ? i do n't know . the only thing that i do know for sure , and i repeat , i am not -- i am not getting involved in this . brady : kind of sounds like you already are . rafe : what ? why ? what , because we kissed ? all right , listen ... i do n't even know why i said anything to you , okay ? it just kind of came out . bottom line , it meant nothing , okay ? it was meaningless and -- brady : mm - hmm . i get it . it was -- meant nothing . you 're over it . you obviously do n't care about her anymore , right , at all ? rafe : why would you say that ? no , of course i care . that 's the problem . i care . ej : i 'm waiting . samantha , is this because of rafe ? sami : yes . yes , okay ? i was all set to go , and then he just showed up here . ej : and ? sami : nothing . nothing . he was just being normal , you know , rafe . ej : what exactly does that mean ? sami : that he had to make himself heard . he needed to make sure i knew what a huge mistake i was making . ej : what , by spending time with me ? well , what did you say to him ? samantha ... what did you say to him ? sonny : so you want me to forgive you ? will : yes . sonny : for what ? for what ? we had just -- we had a -- like , a misunderstanding . do n't you think ? we have -- we have it all figured out now . will : okay , yeah , i guess so . well , then okay , great . that was a misunderstanding . okay , then -- i do n't know -- what do you want to call this ? sonny : i do n't think we need to call it anything , you know ? we do n't need to label anything right now . will : yep , i agree . yeah , good point . sonny : i think the word that we should focus on right now is just `` slow . `` will : `` slow . `` okay . [ both laugh ] yeah , no , i like that . i like that idea . yeah , i like slow . brady : does my sister know you still care about her ? rafe : i do n't know what your sister thinks ... [ scoffs ] not anymore . hell , i do n't know if i ever did . the only thing i know for sure is talking about it 's a colossal waste of time . brady : so you 're done , then ? rafe : well , nothing 's changed -- that 's for sure . no eyes were opened . no great truths were revealed . let 's see . yeah , look at that -- no calls , no texts , no nothing . so ... as far as i know , it happened . i walked out the door , and sami and ej could be having the time of their lives . brady : `` it `` happened . by that , you mean the kiss you guys shared , right ? rafe : yeah , just proves what i 've been saying all along . the kiss , which , yes , is what i meant by `` it , `` meant nothing ... zip ... not to her and ... sure as hell not to me . good talk . brady : mm - hmm . sami : i do n't know what you 're hoping for , ej . i did n't say anything to rafe . ej : why not ? sami : 'cause it 's rafe . i mean , he does all the talking , you know ? he was lecturing me . ej : no , he was n't samantha . he was scaring you away from spending time with me , and what i do n't understand is why you would listen to that . sami : i did n't have much of a choice . ej : did n't have a choice ? you opened the door , you let this guy in , and then you choose -- you choose to listen to what he has to say . sami : okay , first of all , no need to get angry at me . secondly , this guy is my ex - husband , okay ? we were married for a long time . i 'm not gon na just slam the door in his face . ej : look , i 'm not ... i 'm not ang -- okay , let me rephrase that . i 'm not angry with you . i did n't mean for it to come across like that , so i apologize . i recognize i 'm being somewhat unfair . rafe was your husband . you shared a family together , so i suppose he 's always going to have an ... investment where you 're concerned . but what i do n't understand is , if he had something to say , why he could n't say it to me . hmm ? why could n't he say that to my face ? sami : i do n't know . maybe he did n't want to get into it . ej : yeah . it 's more likely he went to spend time with nicole and his baby . sami : i do n't know where he went . i just ... look , ej , i 'm sorry , okay ? i really am . i know how special this night was and how much planning -- ej : samantha , i just wanted to spend some time with you . that 's it . sami : i 'm just not in the mood . i just do n't feel up to going out -- i 'm sorry . ej : okay . i understand . i , uh ... sorry for the way i behaved . i 'm sorry for that , so ... hey ... we can , uh -- we can do this , uh ... another time , you know ? i 'm a patient man .

will : i do n't know -- out of my league . sonny : out of your league ? will : yeah . out of my league . i do n't -- i do n't know . i 'm new to this , like i said . and i probably let that mess with my head . i 'm sorry . and this whole thing has been my fault , so is there any way that you can forgive me ? maggie : melanie ... i just want to make sure that this is all happening for the right reasons . melanie : it is . i love chad so much . he loves me so much . maggie : but you 're in such a hurry to get married . melanie : you think i feel threatened ? maggie : it 's hard not to think that . melanie : this has nothing to do with nick . maggie : melanie , i saw your face when you ran into nick yesterday . you could n't get out of here fast enough . melanie : because i was surprised , not scared , and i had somewhere else i was supposed to be . you know how much i want this . i have always wanted just a relationship where somebody loves me and it 's real and it 's honest . chad : so what are you saying , gabi -- that if i tell melanie that you knew about andrew all along , you 're gon na turn it around on me ? gabi : look , i tried to tell melanie . i know that i did things wrong . but you know what ? you tried to stop me , okay ? chad : because she was freaked out enough over nick 's parole hearing , okay ? she did n't need to know that the real enemy was right in front of her . gabi : i get it -- you were trying to protect her . your heart was in the right place -- i understand . chad : yeah , uh - huh , all the good that 's done , right ? gabi : i am not the enemy , chad . you know , nick is always going to be an issue for her , especially now that he 's staying in salem and working at the pub . chad : whoa , whoa , whoa . what -- what did you just say ? gabi : oh , you did n't know ? mrs. brady hired him . chad : i do n't believe this . gabi : that 's why she needs her friends now more than ever . chad : oh , do n't you talk like you 're one of her friends . get over yourself ! gabi : chad , look , i know i messed up , and i know that if she finds out , that 's gon na crush her . when she finds out what you did ... lying to her ... covering stuff up ... she 's gon na be destroyed . daniel : so i suppose it 's just a fluke that jennifer 's been given an office , say , in the basement . anne : it was the largest space available at the moment . daniel : you know , she really does n't need large . she needs to be online . you really want to go up against me on this , anne ? no . you do n't . nicole : jennifer , why are you being so defensive ? i 'm just trying to be positive and forward - looking for you . jennifer : `` forward - looking `` ? nicole : yes . brady is a great guy , and you and he , sadly , share something that you , no doubt , could help . that 's the only point i was trying to make . jennifer : i have to get to work . nicole : okay , just one more thing . since you brought up the subject of daniel ... i just hope i did n't offend you the other day . jennifer : oh , when you accused me of pushing him aside ? no , i did n't take offense to that at all , nicole . nicole : i 'm sorry if you think that was the point i was trying to make -- jennifer : no , but i think you were making yourself very clear that the best thing i can do for daniel is to give him space . i understand . nicole : look , i do n't mean to harp on it . that 's just what i 'm getting from him . i know that you do n't want to play mind games with him , no matter how unintentional it may be . jennifer : i 'll see you later . nicole : [ sighs ] and off she goes to work with daniel . [ scoffs ] hmm . well , with the number i just pulled , she 'll probably keep her distance , but ... just in case she does n't ... melanie : what chad and i have is real . maggie : melanie , i never doubted your love for chad . melanie : i know . and i was hung up on the fact that he 's a dimera . but that 's not who he is . maggie : of course not . but that 's not what i 'm concerned about . melanie : you do n't need to be concerned about anything . i called my mom . she 's happy . she 's totally fine with it . she and my brother are gon na come out for the wedding . maggie : that 's wonderful . melanie : it would be ... if you were happy too . maggie : come here . i am happy for you . we are gon na have so much fun planning the perfect wedding for you and chad . so ... when is your mom coming ? melanie : uh , she does n't know . she does n't have her schedule yet . [ sighs ] i was thinking maybe i would go , um -- go see her in europe first . maggie : i -- yes , i think you should go visit her definitely . melanie : i know , i just -- i do n't want to leave chad right now , so maybe i 'll just wait until the wedding . maggie : uh , does that mean you 've set a date ? melanie : no . no , no , no , we 're gon na have a long engagement . maggie : [ laughing ] oh , good . of course . yes . melanie : okay , i have to go . but having your support means ... everything . maggie : you have it ... always . i love you so much . [ crying ] melanie : i love you too . okay . okay . i will , uh -- i 'll call you . maggie : okay . melanie : okay . [ giggles ] maggie : [ sighs ] she 's not in a rush . oh , thank god . chad : all i wanted was for melanie to feel safe , and you messed it up . gabi : me ? really ? look , i am not the reason that nick got paroled , chad . chad : you hired andrew to stalk you . that 's how all this started . gabi : what ? look , all i wanted was for you to notice me -- that 's it . chad : so what are you saying ? this is my fault now ? gabi : yeah , maybe if you would have told me that it was never gon na happen between us , then i would -- chad : are you serious right now ? i had no idea how you felt about me . gabi : really ? [ scoffs ] how could you not ? i mean , did you -- let me -- did you look at me just once , maybe ? once ? chad : you know what ? i wish i did . maybe then i would have realized what a nut job you are and what you were capable of . gabi : or maybe you just liked the idea of me fawning all over you . chad : oh , yep , you know what ? that 's it . that 's what i live for -- being stalked by some lunatic girl who does n't care if someone dies , as long as they get my freakin ' attention ! gabi : chad ... this is not all on me , all right ? if you -- if you would have noticed me , noticed how i felt -- you know what ? you could have told me `` gabi , this is never gon na happen for us . i am never gon na be able to love you . `` then maybe , maybe none of this would have ever happened to melanie .

[ scene_break ] sami : wow , stefano . you are really losing it . not only did you almost just let something slip , you let me know that you did . stefano : i was trying to be polite . sami : [ laughs ] oh , sure . stefano : i was trying to keep myself from saying that i do not understand how a son of mine could possibly want to have children with someone like you . sami : well , that just settles it for me . that 's it , stefano . i 'm cutting off visitation . you are never gon na see johnny or sydney again . stefano : just do not threaten me , all right ? because if she finds out the truth , you wo n't have a choice . ej : okay , well , you do n't fix it so she finds out the truth , okay ? because if you do , you 'll never see your grandchildren , ever . stefano : samantha ... wait . [ scene_break ] hope : well , listen , i need to get home to my beautiful daughter . adrienne , thank you so much for your help . adrienne : do n't you need me to sign something ? hope : no , not a thing . uh , justin , i hope your head feels better . justin : is it just me ... adrienne : or does she seem really , really stressed out ? justin : well , she has ... adrienne : i know , i know . been through so much . justin : um , sorry . i should know better than to expect you to have any sympathy for her . see ya ... or not . adrienne : i -- i 'm sorry . i am . justin : it 's okay . no problem . adrienne : actually , there is . um , is there someplace that you and i could talk ? really talk ? [ scene_break ] sami : are you scared ? stefano : scared ? no . i 'm , uh , ahem . i 'm sorry . sami : really ? stefano : look , we all know , i ... i have a temper , all right ? and -- and -- and i say things . but i was sincere when i said to you that i think that we should get along . sami : right , you just do n't actually have the ability to follow through on that . stefano : fine , look , you do n't want to have any forgiveness for the past , that is your decision . sami : thanks . thanks for that concession . stefano : but it does not have to be war , samantha , all right ? what i am trying to say here is this -- since we can not have a truce , the least we can do is have a little civility , huh ? for giovanni , for little sydney . also elvis . sami : right , elvis , the man you ca n't understand how he could possibly have children with someone like me . stefano : all right , look , i was angry , and i lashed out . who knows how much time we have left in this life ? sami : what do you mean ? you 're the phoenix . i thought you were gon na live forever . stefano : i want to spend time with my family . sami : i do n't know what 's really going on between you and ej , but from where i sit , you have blown it big - time with him . and he is just making an effort to be civil , as you said . but i do n't have to do that , because , thank god , you are not my father . so i 'm gon na go , i 'm gon na take my children with me , and we are never coming back . stefano : you can take giovanni and sydney . sami : right , i know . stefano : but you will have to bring them back here eventually just to see their brother , william , because , samantha , as you know , he lives here now in this house .

' justin : [ sighs ] adrienne , we were divorced before i even thought about hope . adrienne : justin , believe me , believe me , i did n't bring you over here so we could go through that again . justin : then why did you ? adrienne : what i wanted to say was , as angry as i was about being tricked into coming back , i 'm now actually glad i came . justin : yeah ? adrienne : it 's help me to understand something . something about you and me . [ scene_break ] sami : thank you , mary . this 'll just take me a second . i have to find that penguin . stefano : [ tapping on desk ] i could have watched them , you know ? sami : oh , right , give you the chance to hop in the car and drive off with them ? stefano : oh , please . sami : you 'd probably take them back to nicole , would n't you ? 'cause i know you liked that last time . where is the stupid penguin ? are you sure johnny did n't have it with him upstairs ? stefano : no , i am not . sami : you have stashed it , have n't you ? it 's just like you . you kidnapped my son 's penguin so you could use it as leverage . stefano : you know , you 're crazier than ever ? sami : i do n't think so . i think i 'm seeing things very clearly . like , for example , i think that it 's very clear , i can change sydney 's custody arrangement . johnny 's , too . stefano : please , huh ? sami : i think ej would back me up . you want to take that bet ? kate : mary asked me to tell you that the penguin is in the diaper bag , whatever the hell that means . sami : oh , thank god . it means i can get the hell out of this place ... permanently . kate : i loathe that woman . stefano : i ca n't even put into words what i feel . oh , katherine , i have a very serious problem . kate : with her ? should i start baking some brownies ? [ scene_break ] adrienne : when i found you out there , and i could n't get you to wake up , it was awful . justin : sorry . adrienne : it hurt me more than it hurt you . but it got me to thinking . it got me to thinking about you and me and the way i grew up by ... i think the clinical term is i was a mess . justin : adrienne , you were -- you 'd gone through a lot , i mean ... adrienne : you were a rock . you were my rock , and i think the whole time that we were together , there were two things going on . i think the fact that i leaned on you so much covered up the fact that i loved you so much . justin : i knew you did , but i did n't mind being leaned on . adrienne : it gets old . and that 's the other thing i realized about coming back . i do n't need to lean on you anymore , and i probably did n't need to lean on you even when i did . and maybe because of all that bad stuff in my past , you could never really lean on me .

[ scene_break ] adrienne : those months we were separated , um , i got really good at figuring out all the things that you did wrong . no , in detail . i think , in reality , it was a lot more fun than facing my own mistakes . justin : adrienne , i do n't know if we should -- adrienne : no , justin , no worries . i 'm not looking for a do - over here . i just wanted the chance ... to say i 'm sorry . justin : i 'm sorry , too . adrienne : so i guess there 's nothing really left to do except find a way to move forward ... whatever the hell that means .

lulu : if you did n't say no when spinelli asked you to marry him , did you say yes ? maxie , tell me you are not gon na marry spinelli . maxie : oh , i -- i love spinelli . he 's the sweetest , kindest , most amazing man that i have ever met , and i am incredibly happy with him . why would i want to mess that up and get married ? lulu : so did you tell him that ? maxie : see , to me , getting married is basically the opposite of being of love , so i want to leave things how they are . that sounds reasonable , right ? lulu : what did you tell spinelli ? maxie : that i had to go to work and i would get back to him when i had the time . lulu : that is so cowardly . maxie : i think he 'll get the hint and just not mention getting married again . lulu : spinelli does n't get hints . we know this . unless you look him in the eye and tell him you do n't want to marry him , who knows what he 's gon na do ? [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] spinelli : thank you so much for responding so quickly to my distress call . it 's very much appreciated . max : what is it ? what 's wrong ? spinelli : it 's a situation most dire . max : are you in trouble ? where 's jason ? spinelli : he dispensed his advice and then left for the stone cold mission of the day . but , alas , i remain confounded , so it was my hope that mr. sir 's preeminent protector could shed some light in the area where he has displayed great skill . max : you need me to kneecap somebody . spinelli : uh , no , alas . uh , i require assistance of a far more tender and profound nature . [ scene_break ] edward : now , i can write you a check , or we could have the funds deposited directly into your account , whichever you 'd prefer . rebecca : oh . i 'm so grateful , edward , that you 're willing to give me $ 10,000 , no questions asked , but , uh ... edward : well , you know , there 's plenty more if you need it . as long as you do your part . rebecca : see , that 's just it . um , living in this house in exchange for a loan -- and it is a loan -- edward : mm - hmm . rebecca : is n't gon na work . i just moved in with nikolas . edward : that 's why i want you here .

[ scene_break ] michael : oh , this place is nice . all right . look at this pool . yeah . yeah . kristina : will you be a helpful big brother and sunblock my back ? michael : yeah , sure . um ... kristina : i missed you so much last summer . michael : hey , if you ever do the whole coma thing , i highly recommend waking up in the beginning of the summer . you know , school wo n't happen for weeks , you know , the weather 's great . all you got ta do is drink lemonade , play tennis , and hang out with your sister , you know . you do n't have to do anything . kristina : you 're lucky to be living at the quartermaines . it 's so close to the club . i have to beg a friend to drive me or beg viola to drive me there . oh , my god , did i tell you what my mom did ? michael : what , besides what happened with the mayor ? kristina : oh , the mayor thing was just bizarre . this was more of a typical my mom . molly and i have been begging her to get a hybrid , so what does she do ? she buys 2 of them , one for her and one for viola to drive us around . and they 're both white . michael : well , were white hybrids on special or something ? kristina : oh , who knows ? molly probably told her white was the best color for the environment or something . michael : so , do you like the new cars or not ? kristina : i guess they 're okay . hybrids start quiet , so it 's even easier to sneak out . plus , i get better mileage and reduce greenhouse gases while i 'm driving without a license . oh , how about that sunblock ? michael : oh , yeah . kiefer : i got k 's back . hey . kristina : hey . kiefer : pull your hair back . whoo . [ scene_break ] max : if this is about a marriage proposal , buddy , i ca n't help you . spinelli : has it not traditionally been the preeminent protector 's assigned duty to procure the ceremonial jewelry for mr. sir 's proposals for his assorted wives ? max : well , yeah , well , i picked up the boss ' ring for kate howard . i messed up so bad that diane thought i asked her to marry me . spinelli : but what did she say ? max : she said yes . spinelli : right ! that 's exactly why . if you managed to procure a yes from the brusque lady of justice when she did n't even want to get married , then surely you can help the jackal in his reframing effort to propose to maximista . max : but why do you want to marry her ? spinelli : ohh ... why ... why do the birds want to fly ? why -- why does the sun shine and the moon quickly follow at every turn of the earth ? why does the wind blow ? max : the girl 's crazy about you . why do you want to mess it up ? spinelli : ask the lily among thorns . so is my love among the daughters that ... as the apple tree among the trees of the woods , so is my love . i sat down under her shadow ... and her fruit tasted sweet to me . max : uh - huh . spinelli : such carnal pleasure was never -- had never been experienced by the jackal , and i daresay never by maximista either . after singing at karaoke night , we at last became one , a -- a -- locked in -- in naked embrace of perfect symmetry -- max : okay , okay , i got it , i got it . spinelli : i just -- i -- i want that glorious connection to continue . so , in -- in the midst of our ... morning after , as it were , i proposed . max : what did she say ? maxie : she proclaimed that she was late for work and fled the room . max : ohh . [ scene_break ] maxie : spinelli was ... just so vulnerable , which is really kind of brave if you think about it . lulu : he 's totally caught up with this courtly love thing . maxie : yeah , and i told him how i felt about marriage like a long time ago . lulu : he has asked you to marry him before ? maxie : no . and i never wanted him to . i mean , spinelli and i were alone in the church before patrick and robin 's wedding , and that made me start thinking about when my mom married mac . i thought of all the beautiful promises she made , and i stood there like an idiot and believed all of them . less than a year later , she was gone . and she walked away from me , georgie , and mac , just like my dad left her . i told spinelli then that i could never see myself getting married . lulu : so why did n't you say no when he asked ? maxie : because when i 'm with spinelli , i believe anything is possible . i believe in myself , the kind of love that lasts forever . and then i thought , you know , patrick and robin were having some problems and they managed to work it out . lulu : oh , my god ! you are actually thinking about marrying spinelli . maxie : i love spinelli with all of my heart , and if he wants to marry me so badly , i mean , how am i supposed to say no ? [ scene_break ] rebecca : you 've been very kind , edward . um ... i just do n't understand how a loan , freely given , with no strings attached -- edward : no strings . heh heh heh . rebecca : somehow turned into you trying to run my life . edward : you know something , my dear ? i wish that you had had the opportunity to grow up in this house with emily . that way , you 'd know how the quartermaines do things . you see , i look at you as my granddaughter , just as i looked at emily . and i 'm just as interested in your future as i was in hers . i want you to have a good , productive life , and i want you to be happy , and that will never happen with nikolas cassadine . rebecca : but with all due respect , uh , mr. quartermaine , you do n't know that . edward : oh , i do , my dear . i never wanted emily to become involved with nikolas in the first place . he 's descended from a long line of inbred , murderous lunatics . and in the brief time she was with him , she was assaulted and terrorized . he was the reason she was in that godforsaken castle that night that she died . and our -- our emily gave up her life , literally , for the love of nikolas cassadine , and i will not allow you to do it . rebecca : since when is that your call to make ? [ scene_break ] sonny : you know what , johnny ? i 'm not gon na act like claudia 's been faithful to me when she has n't , and i 'm not gon na allow her to pass ric 's kid off as mine . claudia : well , i 'd be surprised if the dna test results convince you that this is your baby . but you know what , sonny ? i do n't care . it does n't matter to me . i love this baby , and i 'm gon na take care of it , and i 'm gon na give it a good life . that 's all i want . i hope you want the same thing . sonny : we 'll see . johnny : what the hell is that ? we 'll see ? huh ? claudia : hey , do n't take it . do n't buy into it . do n't . sonny : your brother seems a little tense right now . does that mean you 're hiding something , johnny ? claudia : i have to go , so i 'm gon na go early . i have to be there early to fill out some paperwork at dr. lee 's office . sonny : well -- what -- uh , well , you 're not going anywhere right now without me , right ? claudia : i 'm not gon na switch the test results , sonny . i do n't have any reason to . sonny : then you do n't mind me coming with you . claudia : fine . if that 's what you want . but we have to go right now . i have to be there early . or , you know , if you wanted to , you could just stay here and tell johnny about how you banged his whore last night . [ scene_break ] max : i 'm no expert , but if you ask a girl to marry you , even after great sex , if she tells you she 's got to get to work , she 's either obsessed with her career or she 's running away 'cause the answer 's no . i 'm sorry . spinelli : you ca n't rule out the third option , however . max : there is no third option . there 's yes and there 's no . spinelli : but after a night of rare passion , after the cries of joy and abandon -- max : spinelli , i get it . i do n't need the details , okay , ever . spinelli : maximista may have been swept away by her unexpected -- max : that 's enough ! let 's bring it down a little bit . spinelli : all i 'm saying was the proposal was as spontaneous and wild as the night before and indeed the morning after . so maybe she just ... maybe she doubted my sincerity . max : she said no ? spinelli : no . she never said no . she never said no all night , in fact . so -- look ... i know you can help me out . please , just try ? max : i 'll give it a shot , metamorphically speaking . spinelli : all right . okay . i -- max : all right . spinelli : i await your instruction . please , give -- give me advice as to how to propose to maximista in such a way that it will guarantee an affirmative response . max : [ clears throat ] [ scene_break ] lulu : you can not marry spinelli just to make him happy . it 'll never work . my parents are the perfect example of that . maxie : what ? your parents are , like , legendary . people are still talking about their first wedding and great romance . lulu : yes , they loved each other , there is no question . but my dad is n't marriage material , just like you . he tried to be , but he could n't do it , and they ultimately wanted different things , just like you and spinelli . maxie : okay . so how am i supposed to tell spinelli that i love him with all of my heart and basically want to be around him all the time , i just do n't want to get married . [ telephone ringing ] kate : hello , ladies . so nice to see you at your desks . and yet , are those phones rolling to voicemail ? lulu : oh , they 're back in order . thank god . kate : nice save , lulu . i 'm sure that you 're lying , but at least i know you can think on your feet . you may update my phone sheet . maxie , you can get me the colletta proofs , you know , that photo session that i approved and you completely changed without my permission while i was away . [ scene_break ] rebecca : uh , i 'm so sorry , edward , i have a -- a quick temper . [ chuckles ] i 'm sure emily never yelled at you like that . edward : ho ho ho . on the contrary . emily could shout down this entire family if the situation warranted . but , you know , it might be kind of nice to have this kind of spunk in this house once again . rebecca : oh ... well , my situation is different from emily 's . um , she fell in love with nikolas when she was a teenager , and i 'm an adult . yeah , i 'm going into this with eyes wide open . edward : my dear , i 'm afraid you have n't lived in port charles long enough to know what you 're getting into with nikolas . rebecca : oh , are you talking about the grandmother ? i 'm not afraid of her . edward : you should be . that whole family is unstable . nikolas could snap like that in just a second . he has spent months wandering around that mausoleum mourning for the death of emily . the only reason he looked at you is you look so much like her . rebecca : i understand that a part of nikolas is always going to be in love with emily , but he has feelings for me , too . edward : he would n't have looked at you twice if you were n't her identical twin . rebecca : oh , maybe that 's true , edward , but deserve a chance to see if our relationship can go anywhere . edward : oh , that was a -- that was a very fine argument . it was well reasoned . it was effective . and the emotion was nice . but if you want that $ 10,000 , you 're going to move into this house . [ scene_break ] ethan : hello . nikolas : so alfred said you wanted to see me ? ethan : i 'm afraid so . what did you think of lulu trying to get the family together last night at jake 's ? nikolas : i 'm sorry , ethan , i do n't mean to be rude , but i do have a full schedule today . ethan : right . of course you do . it 's about rebecca . nikolas : huh . well , i 'm not interested in discussing rebecca with you . ethan : i do n't blame you for being territorial about her . you know , she 's -- she 's a very pretty girl . she 's also very good at 5-card . she plays a mean game of blackjack . not even i can beat her . but , see , rebecca has a problem saying what she really wants . so i 'm here to do that for her .

[ scene_break ] kate : so how did this happen ? i set up this shoot exactly the way that i wanted it . i never give the authority for even the slightest change , and yet -- is this in a park ? maxie : in queens . where the world 's fair used to be like a million years ago . kate : well , that 's a pedestrian idea at best . maxie : that 's kind of what i was going for . something to contrast against the clothes . a little more retro . kate : maxie , did you think that i would n't notice ? i would n't notice that you changed the concept , that you changed the location , that you sent it to the printer 's without my permission ? did it ever occur to you , maxie , to just call me and tell me that you had a problem ? maxie : i did call you . kate : well , all right . well , then who gave you the authority to go over budget ? i do n't -- maxie , how did this happen ? maxie : well , the day after you left for your cruise , the warehouse where the photo shoot was supposed to happen was flooded . they 're still saying it 's going to take 2 months to clean it up . we were about to lose the a - list models to other assignments , and the park was the only place i could get on such short notice . and then your concept did n't fit . so -- kate : so you took it upon yourself to change the concept and the location and go over budget . lulu : uh , the budget for the shoot is actually down by about 20 % . maxie : we had to pay some cancellation fees . that 's what drove the numbers up . kate : you know how i feel about excuses . lulu : we might actually get some money back , though , because of the flood . maxie made sure that i filed a claim with the insurance company . kate : okay , lulu , why are you standing up for maxie ? lulu : because i 'm telling you what happened . she rebooked the models . she found the photographer . maxie saved the october issue . kate : yes , or she sabotaged me while my back was turned . i will look at the proofs . let 's hope that i 'm pleased . you can close the door . [ scene_break ] johnny : hey , you are just counting those minutes , are n't you ? hoping that baby 's gon na be ric 's so you can get rid of claudia . never mind the fact that she risked her life for you . never mind the fact that she used all of her influence so she could give you our family 's business . that she involved herself in a business deal that allowed her to be traded off like she was from the damn middle ages . but that 's done now , sonny , right ? you got what you want . you 're done with claudia , so you 're just gon na throw her out like the garbage . sonny : saint claudia chose to sleep with my brother after we were married -- johnny : you do n't give a damn who claudia sleeps with and you know it . you married her for the money and the power . and you 've treated her like dirt since day one . then you went and knocked her up , and now you want to deny the child that you could have had with claudia so you can justify chasing after olivia . let me tell you something , pal . olivia deserves a hell of a lot better than you . and so does claudia . and so does that baby . which i pray to god is not yours . olivia : what he said . [ scene_break ] lulu : do n't you think you 're jumping the gun a little ? maxie : no . you know how kate is . she 's drawing this whole thing out to torture me . lulu : you really did save the october issue . maxie : do n't worry , i 'm gon na download all my information onto your pda and you 're gon na be fine . lulu : your shoot was good . maxie : i know . my layout was brilliant . it was cutting edge . it skews young like crimson is supposed to . i mean , it -- it was about dressing green for the future while looking back at the past . and i thought those links to the internet were kind of fun . and it made the colletta collection look way better than it does . but kate will never admit that . kate : maxie ! so , i reviewed every one of these photos twice , in an effort to be fair . the concept is nowhere near what i imagined , maxie . the photography is erratic . the clothes are misrepresented . the references to the environment are extraneous at best . and i 'm not really sure how i feel about outtakes being on the internet . however , at this late date , we 'll have to go with it . maxie : i 'll be out of the office within the hour . kate : maxie , why do n't you listen to me when i talk ? i just said that this layout was printable . barely , but printable . i 'm promoting you to junior editor . maxie : thank you . kate : now , i know , maxie , that you understand what it means to your personal life when you become a junior editor , and i really hope that mr. spinelli will not be a distraction . [ scene_break ] diane : maxie strikes me as an incredibly focused young woman who is determined to have a career in fashion , even if that means working for kate howard , which , while exciting , can not be very easy . spinelli : but she surely wo n't be tied to the demanding diva much longer , because she possesses the skill and drive to excel on her own . diane : yes , well , that 's my point , mr. grasshopper . a young woman is often asked to make sacrifices that , like it or not , a young man would never be asked to make . a career very often costs a woman far more than it ever does a man . it requires focus and determination , the kind which the men in her personal life might never understand . and a woman will be asked to keep proving herself in the professional arena long after a man has been accepted into the club . she must convince herself that her career is the priority and that she 'll have plenty of time for relationships later on . spinelli : so , you would be reluctant to accept an offer of matrimony ? diane : i 'm afraid i 'm not the marrying kind . spinelli : but ... he asked you to marry him . i mean , inadvertently , but you said yes . diane : yes , well , that was a misunderstanding . spinelli : well , but ... what if a proposal so sweet and tender could possibly win your heart again and change your mind ? diane : oh , i do n't know . i suppose if the guy went all out . if he , say , rented the restaurant at the metro court for an evening or ... took me away to new york for a weekend or rented a yacht for a romantic cruise . if he got down on bended knee and offered a serious ring . took my hand in his , telling me that he had no choice but to love me till the day he died . that his life without me would mean nothing . he wanted to give me the world . i suppose if a guy did all that , well , then , there 's a possibility -- possibility , mind you , that i would set aside reservation , common sense , and follow my heart and say , yes ! yes ! a million times , yes ! is he down ? spinelli : mm - hmm . diane : [ chuckles ] he 'll be up soon .

[ scene_break ] maxie : spinelli was ... just so vulnerable , which is really kind of brave if you think about it . lulu : he 's totally caught up with this courtly love thing . maxie : yeah , and i told him how i felt about marriage like a long time ago . lulu : he has asked you to marry him before ? maxie : no . and i never wanted him to . i mean , spinelli and i were alone in the church before patrick and robin 's wedding , and that made me start thinking about when my mom married mac . i thought of all the beautiful promises she made , and i stood there like an idiot and believed all of them . less than a year later , she was gone . and she walked away from me , georgie , and mac , just like my dad left her . i told spinelli then that i could never see myself getting married . lulu : so why did n't you say no when he asked ? maxie : because when i 'm with spinelli , i believe anything is possible . i believe in myself , the kind of love that lasts forever . and then i thought , you know , patrick and robin were having some problems and they managed to work it out . lulu : oh , my god ! you are actually thinking about marrying spinelli . maxie : i love spinelli with all of my heart , and if he wants to marry me so badly , i mean , how am i supposed to say no ?

[ scene_break ] max : i 'm no expert , but if you ask a girl to marry you , even after great sex , if she tells you she 's got to get to work , she 's either obsessed with her career or she 's running away 'cause the answer 's no . i 'm sorry . spinelli : you ca n't rule out the third option , however . max : there is no third option . there 's yes and there 's no . spinelli : but after a night of rare passion , after the cries of joy and abandon -- max : spinelli , i get it . i do n't need the details , okay , ever . spinelli : maximista may have been swept away by her unexpected -- max : that 's enough ! let 's bring it down a little bit . spinelli : all i 'm saying was the proposal was as spontaneous and wild as the night before and indeed the morning after . so maybe she just ... maybe she doubted my sincerity . max : she said no ? spinelli : no . she never said no . she never said no all night , in fact . so -- look ... i know you can help me out . please , just try ? max : i 'll give it a shot , metamorphically speaking . spinelli : all right . okay . i -- max : all right . spinelli : i await your instruction . please , give -- give me advice as to how to propose to maximista in such a way that it will guarantee an affirmative response . max : [ clears throat ] [ scene_break ] lulu : you can not marry spinelli just to make him happy . it 'll never work . my parents are the perfect example of that . maxie : what ? your parents are , like , legendary . people are still talking about their first wedding and great romance . lulu : yes , they loved each other , there is no question . but my dad is n't marriage material , just like you . he tried to be , but he could n't do it , and they ultimately wanted different things , just like you and spinelli . maxie : okay . so how am i supposed to tell spinelli that i love him with all of my heart and basically want to be around him all the time , i just do n't want to get married .

( scoffs ) why go back to the well ? tucker : unless it 's personal . victor : we have existing supply chains . we have factories . we have distribution centers . we have sales personnel in place . in fact , we have an existing and functioning infrastructure . why the hell not take advantage of that ? tucker : i am opposed to committing significant resources to something this speculative . i think it would be far more prudent for you to focus on your core businesses . victor : and let me tell you something -- newman cosmetics is a core business . beauty of nature was immensely profitable last year . it 's a strong and viable enterprise . lauren : personally , i think your time and money is better invested elsewhere . victor : all right . i appreciate your opinion , but i disagree with you , and i have the feeling that i 'm not the only one .

( laughs ) you know , so , um ... actually , i am going to fly to japan later , and i 'm going to put his advice into action . victoria : you 're going there today . genevieve : mm - hmm . victoria : you know , that 's the worst possible idea . genevieve : why ? victoria : you have absolutely no idea what you 're messing with here . my father could be steering you over a cliff right now out of pure spite . genevieve : ( sighs ) victoria : maybe you think i 'm being paranoid , but i have seen him in action way too many times , okay ? so we need to verify exactly what he said to you before you even think about going to meet with mitsukoshi . genevieve : i 'm going ... victoria : otherwise -- genevieve : and that 's that . there 's only one little snag . i had another trip planned to meet with our ad agency . i 'm going to need you to cover for me for that . victoria : i 'm not sure that 's possible . [ scene_break ] victor : now sharon has plenty of corporate experience , both at jabot and beauty of nature , okay ? tucker : as a model and spokesperson , neither of which qualifies her to manage a business . lauren : hmm . davis , what do you think ? you 've barely said two words . davis : i 'm evaluating . nick : in answer to tucker 's concerns about sharon , she 'll be working very closely with handpicked , seasoned executives and r & d people . she 'll also be answering directly to dad . and another thing -- we 're not proposing anything radical . we know cosmetics . under the newman umbrella , beauty of nature turned into one of the biggest players in the industry , without any adverse effects on our other divisions . adam : sorry i 'm late , but i 'm glad i 'm not too late . i would n't want to miss an opportunity to weigh in on this matter . nick : you mean , you did n't want to miss an opportunity to ruin dad 's plans . adam : on the contrary . i agree with them 100 % . nick : you support a new cosmetics line -- the person who sold the last one . adam : that 's right . victor : son , what are you up to ? [ scene_break ] victoria : where are we putting gifts ? nikki : oh , here , just right on this table , honey . victoria : great . abby : i 'm glad that you 're early , so we can catch up . how 's the new job ? victoria : well , i 'm feeling a bit stymied at the moment . nikki : oh , why ? victoria : well , genevieve wants me to cover this out - of - town meeting , and i 'm not really sure it 's the best idea .

[ scene_break ] adam : there 's nothing disingenuous about this . i support the idea . i think it 's a solid one . nick : then why did you let go of beauty of nature in the first place ? we could have run with that instead of trying to re - create its success . adam : you 're right , we could have , and we should have . that 's why i 'm trying to rectify my mistake . it was very profitable , so it was n't a mistake , per se . it was more a willful act of defiance on my part , and i regret it . newman enterprises is strong and solid because of its diversity . we 're everywhere you look . our products and services are as much a part of everyday life as eating and sleeping . why would we want to lose any part of that foothold ? lauren : because the cosmetic market is saturated . adam : and that 's why you anticipate what the market wants and you give it to them , especially overseas . organic and natural products are just picking up steam . we are in a very unique position to tap into this tremendous growth potential . bob : it sounds like you 're more suited to handle this than sharon is . nick : adam does n't work here anymore . bob : maybe he should . nick : that is not going to be necessary . look , while i have every confidence in sharon that she 'll be able to spearhead this new cosmetics line , if the board approves , i will run it with her . that should put any qualms you might have to rest . victor : thank you , son . now let 's get back to business . you all know where i stand , so why do n't we bring it to a vote ? connie : please vote yea or nay on the matter of creating a new organics line within the newman cosmetics division . victor : yea . lauren : nay . tucker : nay . nick : yea . adam : clearly , i say yea . bob : i think it 's still too risky . nay . victor : well , davis , it 's up to you to break the tie . davis : yea . connie : motion carries , 4 to 3 . victor : all right , meeting adjourned . thank you . victor : adam ? thank you for your support . adam : you offered me help yesterday at the police station . frankly , i think you were trying to buy my vote if , in fact , i could make it to this meeting on time . so i want you to know -- this , here , today , what i did -- this was not me accepting any kind of a bribe . i did this because i believe it 's the right thing to do . nick : so what is this ? the kinder , friendlier adam ? victor : i guess only time will tell . excuse me .

( scoffs ) why go back to the well ? tucker : unless it 's personal . victor : we have existing supply chains . we have factories . we have distribution centers . we have sales personnel in place . in fact , we have an existing and functioning infrastructure . why the hell not take advantage of that ? tucker : i am opposed to committing significant resources to something this speculative . i think it would be far more prudent for you to focus on your core businesses . victor : and let me tell you something -- newman cosmetics is a core business . beauty of nature was immensely profitable last year . it 's a strong and viable enterprise . lauren : personally , i think your time and money is better invested elsewhere . victor : all right . i appreciate your opinion , but i disagree with you , and i have the feeling that i 'm not the only one .

( laughs ) you know , so , um ... actually , i am going to fly to japan later , and i 'm going to put his advice into action . victoria : you 're going there today . genevieve : mm - hmm . victoria : you know , that 's the worst possible idea . genevieve : why ? victoria : you have absolutely no idea what you 're messing with here . my father could be steering you over a cliff right now out of pure spite . genevieve : ( sighs ) victoria : maybe you think i 'm being paranoid , but i have seen him in action way too many times , okay ? so we need to verify exactly what he said to you before you even think about going to meet with mitsukoshi . genevieve : i 'm going ... victoria : otherwise -- genevieve : and that 's that . there 's only one little snag . i had another trip planned to meet with our ad agency . i 'm going to need you to cover for me for that . victoria : i 'm not sure that 's possible . [ scene_break ] victor : now sharon has plenty of corporate experience , both at jabot and beauty of nature , okay ? tucker : as a model and spokesperson , neither of which qualifies her to manage a business . lauren : hmm . davis , what do you think ? you 've barely said two words . davis : i 'm evaluating . nick : in answer to tucker 's concerns about sharon , she 'll be working very closely with handpicked , seasoned executives and r & d people . she 'll also be answering directly to dad . and another thing -- we 're not proposing anything radical . we know cosmetics . under the newman umbrella , beauty of nature turned into one of the biggest players in the industry , without any adverse effects on our other divisions . adam : sorry i 'm late , but i 'm glad i 'm not too late . i would n't want to miss an opportunity to weigh in on this matter . nick : you mean , you did n't want to miss an opportunity to ruin dad 's plans . adam : on the contrary . i agree with them 100 % . nick : you support a new cosmetics line -- the person who sold the last one . adam : that 's right . victor : son , what are you up to ?

[ scene_break ] adam : there 's nothing disingenuous about this . i support the idea . i think it 's a solid one . nick : then why did you let go of beauty of nature in the first place ? we could have run with that instead of trying to re - create its success . adam : you 're right , we could have , and we should have . that 's why i 'm trying to rectify my mistake . it was very profitable , so it was n't a mistake , per se . it was more a willful act of defiance on my part , and i regret it . newman enterprises is strong and solid because of its diversity . we 're everywhere you look . our products and services are as much a part of everyday life as eating and sleeping . why would we want to lose any part of that foothold ? lauren : because the cosmetic market is saturated . adam : and that 's why you anticipate what the market wants and you give it to them , especially overseas . organic and natural products are just picking up steam . we are in a very unique position to tap into this tremendous growth potential . bob : it sounds like you 're more suited to handle this than sharon is . nick : adam does n't work here anymore . bob : maybe he should . nick : that is not going to be necessary . look , while i have every confidence in sharon that she 'll be able to spearhead this new cosmetics line , if the board approves , i will run it with her . that should put any qualms you might have to rest . victor : thank you , son . now let 's get back to business . you all know where i stand , so why do n't we bring it to a vote ? connie : please vote yea or nay on the matter of creating a new organics line within the newman cosmetics division . victor : yea . lauren : nay . tucker : nay . nick : yea . adam : clearly , i say yea . bob : i think it 's still too risky . nay . victor : well , davis , it 's up to you to break the tie . davis : yea . connie : motion carries , 4 to 3 . victor : all right , meeting adjourned . thank you . victor : adam ? thank you for your support . adam : you offered me help yesterday at the police station . frankly , i think you were trying to buy my vote if , in fact , i could make it to this meeting on time . so i want you to know -- this , here , today , what i did -- this was not me accepting any kind of a bribe . i did this because i believe it 's the right thing to do . nick : so what is this ? the kinder , friendlier adam ? victor : i guess only time will tell . excuse me .
