brooke : we are all worried about douglas . but you do n't have to marry his father to make sure that that little boy feels loved . katie : especially if you 're still in love with liam . donna : and he 's still in love with you . hope : liam is with steffy and the girls . where he belongs . brooke : but that does n't mean that you belong with thomas . he 's trying to force you into something that you 're not ready for . hope : actually , mom , thomas was n't the one who proposed . it was douglas . donna : and you do n't think that 's a little odd ? hope : no , i thought it was sweet . he asked me to be his new mommy , and it would break his heart if i said no . brooke : that 's what thomas wants you to think . katie : listen , i -- i know that thomas loves his son . i know you 're very important to both of them . and if this is truly what you want , of course we will support you . but you ca n't marry someone if your heart is not in it . thomas : xander wants to tell hope and liam about beth , just let him . zoe : no ! xander , you can't . xander : it 's the right thing , zoe . thomas : yeah . poor xander , he just ca n't live with himself . the secret 's killing him . is n't that right ? you just ca n't do it . then don't . yeah . go to hope . go to the police . be a hero . clear your conscience . okay , but make sure to tell her goodbye before you leave . because her and her father , they 're gon na spend 10 to 20 years behind bars . oh , and you and flo ? you 're gon na be in prison , too . now , you say you do n't care about that . but i 'm betting you do . katie : hope , your mother is just worried about you and thomas . brooke : i 've been trying to warn you about him , honey . ever since he came back in town , he 's been ... focused on one thing . hope : yes . douglas . hope : no . you . and his attachment with you , it 's just ... it seems a little too much . it reminds me of issues that he 's had in the past -- issues with his anger , issues with impulse control . i mean , you may not remember , but it was n't too long ago , thomas would get fixated on things . and right now , hope , he is fixated on you . hope : he just ... he cares about me . brooke : yes , too much . too much . i have to say this . thomas is unstable . thomas : what 's your problem , xander ? you say you love zoe . xander : i do . thomas : okay . well , then , look at her , okay ? she 's freaking out . xander : honey , i know that you 're scared , but -- thomas : she 's scared because of you , okay ? because of what you 're about to do . xander : this has to be done , thomas ! this needs to be over . thomas : look , if you tell hope about beth , it 's only the beginning , all right ? there 's gon na be investigations , and there 's gon na be indictments . zoe : look , i called my dad , okay ? he 's still in london , and he 's trying to keep busy . he 's trying to work . but he is absolutely traumatized by what he did that night on catalina . he is terrified of this getting out , because he knows we will all go to prison . and he does n't want that . he knows it 's his fault . but we all lied , too . okay ? so now we 're all in it just as deep as he is . there are way too many consequences , and not just for us , if we tell the truth . so please , xander , i am begging you . for me . please , keep this secret . there 's a bunch of whole almonds in every bar hope : this engagement is n't about thomas getting what he wants . brooke : i 've talked to him , hope . thomas ' focus has been completely on you for months . hope : he just wants to build a family for douglas . brooke : that 's what you want . his motivation may be completely different . hope : look , mom , i appreciate your concern , and i understand why his history makes you a little nervous . but that is not what is happening now . okay ? this is what 's good . for thomas and for douglas and for me . making a stable home environment for that little boy is not something that i feel forced or obligated to do . brooke : [ sighs ] honey , i know what you 're doing . you 're trying to convince yourself that this is the right thing for you . hope : mom , i do n't want to argue with you about this . katie : your mom does n't want to argue , either . donna : you have to admit , this proposal did come out of the blue . i mean , thomas has n't even been in l.a. that long , and -- and douglas is still grieving his mother . brooke : this is n't the right time to start up a new relationship . hope : look ! [ sighs ] losing my child changed me . and i will be grieving the loss of beth for the rest of my life . and when i married liam , i felt like we finally overcame all of our obstacles . but i did not know what was to come . and i know that you 're scared that this marriage is n't going to be an expression of love , but it will be . because love is the reason that i said yes . because of my love for douglas . because of my love for kelly . because of my love for phoebe . and because of the mother that i want to be . now , i -- i love liam . and i will cherish the time that we spent together . and i will miss beth every single day for the rest of my life . but this is a way i can honor her . by giving douglas the mother that he needs . xander : hope and liam deserve to know the truth . zoe : and i wish that was possible , but i do n't see a way that -- xander : you just say it ! we go to hope and liam and say it . zoe : and sacrifice ourselves ? just destroy everything that we 've built together ? thomas : it 's not necessary , xander . xander : yeah , thank you . i 'm talking to zoe right now . thomas : okay , but what you 're suggesting does n't make sense . it 's destructive . xander : hope and liam 's life has been turned upside down . thomas : they seem pretty happy to me . xander : because they do n't know what reese did . thomas : you mean what reese and flo did . the crime that my sister and my mother unknowingly took part in . okay ? the one that zoe tried to cover up . look , steffy took a baby that was n't hers out of the country because of you . xander : just stop . thomas : no , you stop . you 're trying to make this simple , xander , and it 's not . we 're trying to tell you it 's not . hope and liam , they 're gon na be fine . and beth , she 's gon na be fine , too . xander : yeah , well what about emma ? she is dead because of you . because of this evil secret . thomas : emma was reckless and selfish , which is what you 're being right now . xander : is that a threat ? zoe : no . nobody is threatening anyone . xander : oh , please . he 's working you , zoe ! preying on your fear , just like he 's preying on hope . you know , i heard her mother talking to donna and katie . she 's not happy about this engagement . she 's worried as hell because she knows that it 's wrong . what kind of marriage do you think you 're supposed to have with hope ? it 's based on a lie . i mean , wha -- what kind of life do you think we 're supposed to have , huh ? with this always hanging over our heads ? you know , i - i -- i said it earlier , but i meant what i said , zoe . this has to come out one way or another . so either we go to hope and liam and -- and -- and come clean to the forresters and logans and the police , or ... or i 'm leaving . zoe : xander , you can't . xander : zoe , i meant what i said . either we go to hope or i 'm leaving forrester creations and -- and i 'm leaving l.a. and i 'm leaving you . brooke : honey , there is no doubt in my mind that you would make an incredible mother . donna : obviously thomas agrees . brooke : the bond that you have with douglas is beautiful . it 's been good for you . it 's been good for him . but he 's not your child . hope : he will be . brooke : honey , you said that you will always be grieving beth . that there will be a hole in your heart forever . and if thomas is making you think that douglas is going to fix that -- hope : being with douglas makes me happy . i need to feel like i 'm making a difference in my life , like i 'm doing something positive . i need something to look forward to and to be excited about , and i want to be there to watch douglas grow up . brooke : you -- hope : i want to share in those experiences , mom . i want to be a part of a family again . i want to have a family . brooke : and you can . you -- you could have done that with liam . hope : liam has kelly and phoebe . that is his future . and this ... [ sighs ] this is mine . katie : you know , i hear you talking a lot about douglas , but i have n't heard you say anything about thomas . hope : thomas knows how much i wanted to be a mother . brooke : yes , he does . and he is exploiting that . i hate to say this , but you 're really vulnerable right now , and he is using your loss . he 's using your maternal instincts for douglas to make you his wife . zoe : [ sobs ] xander , if you want to go back to london , i 'll go with you . xander : no . either we all tell the truth or i go alone . zoe : why ? we can both get away from all this pressure . xander : because , zoe ! if you are determined to keep this secret , i do n't know if i can be with you . zoe : but i do n't want to lose you . xander : well , i do n't want to lose you , either , but you 're not giving me much of a choice . zoe : xander , i can't . xander : when you followed me to l.a. , you said that you loved me . said that you 'd do anything to be with me . and i did n't know if i could trust you at first . but you won me over . made me fall in love with you all over again . and now ... i do n't even know you . you -- you wo n't listen to reason . you wo n't -- you wo n't listen to me , so ... i think you should stay here . i think you should keep your whole new life and your fancy job and your money . but you ca n't keep me . zoe : well , i ca n't go to jail . and i ca n't put my father into prison . thomas : xander , you , uh -- you promised to take care of her . that you would protect her . but you ca n't protect her from jail ? you 'll have her turn on her own father for your own , what , sense of justice ? zoe , look , your father begged you not to turn him in . zoe : xander , look , i love you . but i ca n't do what you 're asking . xander : that 's it , then . i am moving back to london by myself , because i ca n't take another minute of this . zoe : xander , i -- xander : [ sighs ] goodbye , zoe . zoe : xander ! xander ! thomas : hey , hey -- xander : you ca n't stop me . thomas : go . but if you tell anyone about this -- xander : what are you gon na do , huh ? you gon na kill me like you killed emma ? gon na kill zoe ? let me tell you something . if anything happens to her , i 'll go straight to the police . and there 's nothing that you can do to stop me . zoe : [ crying ] god ! why did n't he just listen to me ? thomas : i think you did the right thing . the secret 's safe . okay ? no one will ever know the truth about beth . the best thing that we can do is to put it behind us and move on with our lives . jardiance asks : [ door opens ] thomas : hey . hope : hi . heh . thomas : did you , uh , get my text ? hope : uh , my phone was in my purse . thomas : oh . i 'd rather see you face - to - face , anyway . hope : ha ... you 're in a good mood . thomas : i had a good day . so ... did you show off your ring ? hope : uh ... well , it certainly got a lot of attention . thomas : mm . you know , if you 're free tonight , i was thinking you could come up to the house , and we could make our engagement official . hope : well , i - i think we should tell douglas first . thomas : oh , well , that 's what i meant . but i like where your head 's at . hope : [ chuckles ] um ... i just -- i think we should , uh , make it special , and maybe go to a restaurant . thomas : oh . i was thinking we could order in . you know , have a bottle of champagne . hope : or cake . and ice cream . douglas will want to be a part of the celebration . thomas : he 's gon na be so excited . and then , once he goes to bed , well , we can celebrate on our own , just the two of us . hope : thomas ... heh ... i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i just -- i think we should wait until our wedding night . brooke : ugh ! god . i do n't know what else i could have said . donna : hope seems to have convinced herself that marrying thomas is the right thing to do . brooke : [ huffs ] she 's being manipulated . ridge believes that this relationship will be great for thomas , and for hope . i do n't think it 's gon na be good for any of them . katie : does ridge know that hope is still in love with liam ? brooke : well , yeah . but he does n't care . i mean , he think this is all working out the way it should . hope got the annulment from liam . liam is now with steffy , and thomas and hope are engaged . of course , that was orchestrated . katie : yeah . i agree . brooke : and hope , she 's just being swept up in the momentum . she does n't even know what 's happening . but thomas knows the kind of woman she is . she always feels the need to help . she feels the need to make a difference . katie : those are some of her best qualities . brooke : yes . and they 're being used against her . and i - i do n't know what to do about it . but that is what 's happening . and ridge , he called me stephanie . he thinks that i 'm doing what stephanie did to ridge and me when were younger . donna : no ! no . brooke : yes . donna : i mean , i - i could see why he would say that , but no , no , no , no , no . katie : this is completely different . you and ridge were destined to be together . brooke : and that 's how thomas feels about hope . he thinks that this is all meant to be , and now he 's got hope thinking that way , too . she does n't even realize what he 's doing . thomas : that must be a good book . douglas : my favorite . thomas : oh . you want me to read some to you later ? douglas : sure . thomas : maybe hope can read you some , too . douglas : like mommy used to ? thomas : yeah . douglas : tonight ? thomas : well , not tonight , 'cause tonight hope and i have something really important to talk to you about . but first , someone needs to clean up their room . yeah . [ thinking ] i have to get this done . i 'm sorry to do this to you , bud , but i ca n't wait any longer . | hope keeps repeating that liam is with steffy and the girls where he belongs . but katie , donna and brooke tell her that liam is still in love with her . katie says she appreciates that thomas loves his son and wants a mother for him , but hope can not marry a man when her heart is just not in it . thomas tells xander and zoe that go ahead and be the hero . go tell hope , go tell the police . but he knows that zoe and her father will end up in prison for twenty years . and for that matter so will flo and xander . zoe keeps begging and saying she called her father in london and he is doing all he can to keep clean and just work . he knows he is guilty and feels badly . but the consequences are such that he can not come forward without hurting everyone including himself of course . thomas adds again that xander does not need to be the hero now . look at zoe if he loves her and how devastating this is to her . he needs to let this go . zoe begs him again to please do not do this . thomas points out that xander is trying to make this simple but it is not . it is complicated . xander turns to zoe and says he can not do this . they would have no kind of life together with this held over their heads . they have to go to hope and tell her the truth and explain to the logan 's , the forrester 's and the police . if not , then he is leaving zoe and going his own way . he is distraught and will not believe thomas that emma was reckless while driving and he still knows he was responsible for her accident and death . as the ladies try to convince hope not to marry thomas , she says this will be a marriage of love her love for douglas , her love for phoebe and kelly and the love she will have in being a mother . all their words fall on her deaf ears . brooke ends up saying douglas is a wonderful child but he is not her child . and if thomas is exploiting her motherly instincts to make her his wife then that is wrong . | <s>[INST] brooke : we are all worried about douglas . but you do n't have to marry his father to make sure that that little boy feels loved . katie : especially if you 're still in love with liam . donna : and he 's still in love with you . hope : liam is with steffy and the girls . where he belongs . brooke : but that does n't mean that you belong with thomas . he 's trying to force you into something that you 're not ready for . hope : actually , mom , thomas was n't the one who proposed . it was douglas . donna : and you do n't think that 's a little odd ? hope : no , i thought it was sweet . he asked me to be his new mommy , and it would break his heart if i said no . brooke : that 's what thomas wants you to think . katie : listen , i -- i know that thomas loves his son . i know you 're very important to both of them . and if this is truly what you want , of course we will support you . but you ca n't marry someone if your heart is not in it . thomas : xander wants to tell hope and liam about beth , just let him . zoe : no ! xander , you can't . xander : it 's the right thing , zoe . thomas : yeah . poor xander , he just ca n't live with himself . the secret 's killing him . is n't that right ? you just ca n't do it . then don't . yeah . go to hope . go to the police . be a hero . clear your conscience . okay , but make sure to tell her goodbye before you leave . because her and her father , they 're gon na spend 10 to 20 years behind bars . oh , and you and flo ? you 're gon na be in prison , too . now , you say you do n't care about that . but i 'm betting you do . katie : hope , your mother is just worried about you and thomas . brooke : i 've been trying to warn you about him , honey . ever since he came back in town , he 's been ... focused on one thing . hope : yes . douglas . hope : no . you . and his attachment with you , it 's just ... it seems a little too much . it reminds me of issues that he 's had in the past -- issues with his anger , issues with impulse control . i mean , you may not remember , but it was n't too long ago , thomas would get fixated on things . and right now , hope , he is fixated on you . hope : he just ... he cares about me . brooke : yes , too much . too much . i have to say this . thomas is unstable . thomas : what 's your problem , xander ? you say you love zoe . xander : i do . thomas : okay . well , then , look at her , okay ? she 's freaking out . xander : honey , i know that you 're scared , but -- thomas : she 's scared because of you , okay ? because of what you 're about to do . xander : this has to be done , thomas ! this needs to be over . thomas : look , if you tell hope about beth , it 's only the beginning , all right ? there 's gon na be investigations , and there 's gon na be indictments . zoe : look , i called my dad , okay ? he 's still in london , and he 's trying to keep busy . he 's trying to work . but he is absolutely traumatized by what he did that night on catalina . he is terrified of this getting out , because he knows we will all go to prison . and he does n't want that . he knows it 's his fault . but we all lied , too . okay ? so now we 're all in it just as deep as he is . there are way too many consequences , and not just for us , if we tell the truth . so please , xander , i am begging you . for me . please , keep this secret . there 's a bunch of whole almonds in every bar hope : this engagement is n't about thomas getting what he wants . brooke : i 've talked to him , hope . thomas ' focus has been completely on you for months . hope : he just wants to build a family for douglas . brooke : that 's what you want . his motivation may be completely different . hope : look , mom , i appreciate your concern , and i understand why his history makes you a little nervous . but that is not what is happening now . okay ? this is what 's good . for thomas and for douglas and for me . making a stable home environment for that little boy is not something that i feel forced or obligated to do . brooke : [ sighs ] honey , i know what you 're doing . you 're trying to convince yourself that this is the right thing for you . hope : mom , i do n't want to argue with you about this . katie : your mom does n't want to argue , either . donna : you have to admit , this proposal did come out of the blue . i mean , thomas has n't even been in l.a. that long , and -- and douglas is still grieving his mother . brooke : this is n't the right time to start up a new relationship . hope : look ! [ sighs ] losing my child changed me . and i will be grieving the loss of beth for the rest of my life . and when i married liam , i felt like we finally overcame all of our obstacles . but i did not know what was to come . and i know that you 're scared that this marriage is n't going to be an expression of love , but it will be . because love is the reason that i said yes . because of my love for douglas . because of my love for kelly . because of my love for phoebe . and because of the mother that i want to be . now , i -- i love liam . and i will cherish the time that we spent together . and i will miss beth every single day for the rest of my life . but this is a way i can honor her . by giving douglas the mother that he needs . xander : hope and liam deserve to know the truth . zoe : and i wish that was possible , but i do n't see a way that -- xander : you just say it ! we go to hope and liam and say it . zoe : and sacrifice ourselves ? just destroy everything that we 've built together ? thomas : it 's not necessary , xander . xander : yeah , thank you . i 'm talking to zoe right now . thomas : okay , but what you 're suggesting does n't make sense . it 's destructive . xander : hope and liam 's life has been turned upside down . thomas : they seem pretty happy to me . xander : because they do n't know what reese did . thomas : you mean what reese and flo did . the crime that my sister and my mother unknowingly took part in . okay ? the one that zoe tried to cover up . look , steffy took a baby that was n't hers out of the country because of you . xander : just stop . thomas : no , you stop . you 're trying to make this simple , xander , and it 's not . we 're trying to tell you it 's not . hope and liam , they 're gon na be fine . and beth , she 's gon na be fine , too . xander : yeah , well what about emma ? she is dead because of you . because of this evil secret . thomas : emma was reckless and selfish , which is what you 're being right now . xander : is that a threat ? zoe : no . nobody is threatening anyone . xander : oh , please . he 's working you , zoe ! preying on your fear , just like he 's preying on hope . you know , i heard her mother talking to donna and katie . she 's not happy about this engagement . she 's worried as hell because she knows that it 's wrong . what kind of marriage do you think you 're supposed to have with hope ? it 's based on a lie . i mean , wha -- what kind of life do you think we 're supposed to have , huh ? with this always hanging over our heads ? you know , i - i -- i said it earlier , but i meant what i said , zoe . this has to come out one way or another . so either we go to hope and liam and -- and -- and come clean to the forresters and logans and the police , or ... or i 'm leaving . zoe : xander , you can't . xander : zoe , i meant what i said . either we go to hope or i 'm leaving forrester creations and -- and i 'm leaving l.a. and i 'm leaving you . brooke : honey , there is no doubt in my mind that you would make an incredible mother . donna : obviously thomas agrees . brooke : the bond that you have with douglas is beautiful . it 's been good for you . it 's been good for him . but he 's not your child . hope : he will be . brooke : honey , you said that you will always be grieving beth . that there will be a hole in your heart forever . and if thomas is making you think that douglas is going to fix that -- hope : being with douglas makes me happy . i need to feel like i 'm making a difference in my life , like i 'm doing something positive . i need something to look forward to and to be excited about , and i want to be there to watch douglas grow up . brooke : you -- hope : i want to share in those experiences , mom . i want to be a part of a family again . i want to have a family . brooke : and you can . you -- you could have done that with liam . hope : liam has kelly and phoebe . that is his future . and this ... [ sighs ] this is mine . katie : you know , i hear you talking a lot about douglas , but i have n't heard you say anything about thomas . hope : thomas knows how much i wanted to be a mother . brooke : yes , he does . and he is exploiting that . i hate to say this , but you 're really vulnerable right now , and he is using your loss . he 's using your maternal instincts for douglas to make you his wife . zoe : [ sobs ] xander , if you want to go back to london , i 'll go with you . xander : no . either we all tell the truth or i go alone . zoe : why ? we can both get away from all this pressure . xander : because , zoe ! if you are determined to keep this secret , i do n't know if i can be with you . zoe : but i do n't want to lose you . xander : well , i do n't want to lose you , either , but you 're not giving me much of a choice . zoe : xander , i can't . xander : when you followed me to l.a. , you said that you loved me . said that you 'd do anything to be with me . and i did n't know if i could trust you at first . but you won me over . made me fall in love with you all over again . and now ... i do n't even know you . you -- you wo n't listen to reason . you wo n't -- you wo n't listen to me , so ... i think you should stay here . i think you should keep your whole new life and your fancy job and your money . but you ca n't keep me . zoe : well , i ca n't go to jail . and i ca n't put my father into prison . thomas : xander , you , uh -- you promised to take care of her . that you would protect her . but you ca n't protect her from jail ? you 'll have her turn on her own father for your own , what , sense of justice ? zoe , look , your father begged you not to turn him in . zoe : xander , look , i love you . but i ca n't do what you 're asking . xander : that 's it , then . i am moving back to london by myself , because i ca n't take another minute of this . zoe : xander , i -- xander : [ sighs ] goodbye , zoe . zoe : xander ! xander ! thomas : hey , hey -- xander : you ca n't stop me . thomas : go . but if you tell anyone about this -- xander : what are you gon na do , huh ? you gon na kill me like you killed emma ? gon na kill zoe ? let me tell you something . if anything happens to her , i 'll go straight to the police . and there 's nothing that you can do to stop me . zoe : [ crying ] god ! why did n't he just listen to me ? thomas : i think you did the right thing . the secret 's safe . okay ? no one will ever know the truth about beth . the best thing that we can do is to put it behind us and move on with our lives . jardiance asks : [ door opens ] thomas : hey . hope : hi . heh . thomas : did you , uh , get my text ? hope : uh , my phone was in my purse . thomas : oh . i 'd rather see you face - to - face , anyway . hope : ha ... you 're in a good mood . thomas : i had a good day . so ... did you show off your ring ? hope : uh ... well , it certainly got a lot of attention . thomas : mm . you know , if you 're free tonight , i was thinking you could come up to the house , and we could make our engagement official . hope : well , i - i think we should tell douglas first . thomas : oh , well , that 's what i meant . but i like where your head 's at . hope : [ chuckles ] um ... i just -- i think we should , uh , make it special , and maybe go to a restaurant . thomas : oh . i was thinking we could order in . you know , have a bottle of champagne . hope : or cake . and ice cream . douglas will want to be a part of the celebration . thomas : he 's gon na be so excited . and then , once he goes to bed , well , we can celebrate on our own , just the two of us . hope : thomas ... heh ... i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i just -- i think we should wait until our wedding night . brooke : ugh ! god . i do n't know what else i could have said . donna : hope seems to have convinced herself that marrying thomas is the right thing to do . brooke : [ huffs ] she 's being manipulated . ridge believes that this relationship will be great for thomas , and for hope . i do n't think it 's gon na be good for any of them . katie : does ridge know that hope is still in love with liam ?

ridge : so it turns out my son is a hopeless romantic . who knew , right ? zoe was very surprised . brooke : well , i 'm not , 'cause thomas could have done something private for zoe . instead , he put on a show to celebrate her birthday so that people could witness how `` devoted `` he really is to her . ridge : you know , if this were n't so sad , it could almost be funny . now my son ca n't even throw a birthday party for his new girlfriend 'cause you 're gon na be suspicious ? what is it ? what , he 's moved on from hope . he 's not threatening anybody . why ca n't you accept that ? zoe : thank you for a wonderful birthday . thomas : i wanted everyone to see how important you are to me . hope : come here . come here . douglas : why is daddy kissing her ? wyatt : no . no . sally ca n't be dying . she 's got more life to live . uh , i do n't understand . katie : she has n't been herself lately . wyatt : yeah , i saw that . and when i asked her about it , she said that it was nothing . i - i just ... [ exhales deeply ] i need to -- i thought she was just stressed out about me breaking off the engagement or the showdown or whatever . katie : well , she did n't know what it was , and she thought that the symptoms would interfere with her work , so she tried to ignore them , but then everything got so bad that she went to the doctor , and ... she learned the truth . wyatt : so they 're sure ? it 's terminal ? no , i have to go see her . sally ca n't go through this -- bill : you ca n't tell her that you know , wyatt . katie : she swore me to secrecy . you ca n't tell anyone . i - i - i swore that i would not tell anyone . wyatt : except for me , though . katie : no , especially not you . wyatt : no , no , that 's not right . no , sally has to know that i would be there for her . she can rely on me to be there for her . katie : you ca n't tell her . we have to do this her way . she feels that this is the one thing that she can control . wyatt : [ sighs ] katie : please do n't make me regret telling you .

[ sighs ] quinn : you seem unusually distracted , sally . [ sighs ] are you all right ? ridge : sometimes it feels like time 's running out for us . the longer we 're apart , the harder it 's gon na be to get back together . and it should n't be hard at all . ridge : there 's one thing keeping us apart . brooke : thomas . ridge : no , not thomas , but the way you feel about thomas . you just ca n't see that he 's getting better , that -- that -- that he 's paid the price for what he 's done , that he 's moving on . brooke : stop it ! it 's all an act ! i am certain of it ! thomas has fooled everybody , most of all , you . zoe : you know , this could have been a really lonely birthday for me , but you made forrester feel like my family . douglas : i do n't want another mommy . you 're my mommy now . hope : do n't worry . that 's never going to change . okay ?

come on . hope : how on earth could you do that to your son ? thousands of women with metastatic breast cancer , ridge : can you please try and step away from all your anger ? brooke : [ sighs ] ridge : and judgment ? brooke : i wish i could . i wish i could walk into this office and see hope and thomas working together and not be filled with dread . ridge : okay , then why do n't you do that ? why do n't you see what everybody else sees ? two people working together , creating something , two people raising a kid together . brooke : ridge , have you ever stopped to ask yourself why this is so hard for me , why i am struggling with this ? something happened that i did n't tell you about . i had a moment of weakness , and i wanted a drink . ridge : well , you can't . you -- brooke : no , i did n't drink . i didn't . i wanted one , but i didn't . and i called my sponsor , and i went to a meeting . ridge : but we -- we ca n't let that happen . this -- it ca n't drive you to -- brooke : i know . it 's not . it 's just because of all the stress because of thomas . you know i 've been right about him , ridge . ridge : this is not about who 's right or wrong . it 's not about winning or losing , especially now . it 's gon na drive you to -- to drink ? why ca n't we just figure this out ? you 're the most important thing to me . this is what i want -- brooke : and you 're the most important thing to me . you know that . but i do n't trust thomas , not around hope . thomas : douglas is fine with zoe . she 's just taking him upstairs . hope : yeah , but you could n't see that he was upset ? thomas : douglas said it was okay . hope : he was being nice . but he was n't okay . thomas , letting him see that kiss was not okay . thomas : the kiss that i had with zoe ? hope : yes , or he did n't understand it . he does n't know what it means . thomas : it 's just a kiss . hope : but it 's not . thomas , have you told him about your relationship with zoe , who she is to you , who she could be to him ?

[ exhales deeply ] i need to -- i thought she was just stressed out about me breaking off the engagement or the showdown or whatever . katie : well , she did n't know what it was , and she thought that the symptoms would interfere with her work , so she tried to ignore them , but then everything got so bad that she went to the doctor , and ... she learned the truth . wyatt : so they 're sure ? it 's terminal ? no , i have to go see her . sally ca n't go through this -- bill : you ca n't tell her that you know , wyatt . katie : she swore me to secrecy . you ca n't tell anyone . i - i - i swore that i would not tell anyone . wyatt : except for me , though . katie : no , especially not you . wyatt : no , no , that 's not right . no , sally has to know that i would be there for her . she can rely on me to be there for her . katie : you ca n't tell her . we have to do this her way . she feels that this is the one thing that she can control . wyatt : [ sighs ] katie : please do n't make me regret telling you . [ keyboard keys clacking ] quinn : well , she was genuinely surprised , which is crazy because it 's almost impossible to keep a secret around here . sally : what ? quinn : i was telling you about zoe 's surprise birthday party . sally : right .

[ cellphone rings ] zoe : oh , i 'm gon na go grab that . thomas : sure . [ ring ] vinny : dude , what are you doing ? i get throwing this party to make hope jealous or whatever , but kissing zoe like that in front of douglas ? look at him . he 's freaking out , and hope is pissed , too . thomas : the only way to give my son the family that he wants is to make him think it 'll never happen . douglas has to convince hope to come back to us . these are real people , wyatt : i mean , i ca n't just act like everything 's fine , that sally 's all right . bill : you can and you wll , wyatt , because that 's what katie 's asking you to do . wyatt : i care about sally way too much . katie : and clearly she cares about you . wyatt : so much so that she does n't want me to know that she 's sick ? katie : yes . listen , i understand not wanting to be a burden . she 's dealing with this terrible diagnosis , and it 's gon na be a process . and at some point , she might want you to be a part of that process , and i want you to be ready for that if she does , but now is not that time . wyatt : but if she 's as sick as you say she is , that she does n't have a lot of time left , all right , she needs me now . [ door closes ] quinn : [ sighs ] i know we have n't always gotten along . but i do n't want you to think that i 'm taking any pleasure in what you 're going through right now . i know it 's a very difficult time . you planned on a long and happy future with my son , and now that 's not gon na happen . sally : no , it 's not . quinn : yeah , but , you know , i see good things for you on your horizon . do n't let this throw you off your game . sally : quinn , are you trying to be nice to me ? quinn : hey , i may not have been thrilled to have you as a daughter - in - law , but it does n't mean i do n't respect you as an artist . you 're young . you 're feisty . you 're ambitious . you 'll bounce back from this . brooke : [ sighs ] ridge : i 'm tired . i -- i ca n't -- i do n't -- are n't you ? you got ta be exhausted . 'cause every time i do something to try to heal my family , you push against me with everything you have . brooke : ridge , you 're still not getting the professional help that thomas so desperately needs . ridge : what he desperately needs is his family to believe in him . he 's got me . he 's got steffy . even your daughter 's okay with him . but you -- you just -- you ca n't -- you ca n't find your way back . what are you worried about ? brooke : i 'm worried about my daughter . okay , maybe thomas ' behavior has changed , but not his motives . he 's doing all of this to get closer to hope because he 's obsessed with her . i do n't wan na pick a fight with you , ridge . i don't . i love you , and i wan na stay married to you . but thomas is a danger to hope , and i need you to see that . i need you to open your eyes . hope : here we go . thomas : why are you so uptight ? vinny : because you 've made this mistake before , man . using douglas to get hope back is a bad idea . thomas : okay . i am giving douglas the family that he needs the only way i can . zoe : talk to you later . bye . [ cellphone beeps ] vinny : hey , zoe , happy birthday . zoe : thanks , vinny . [ laughs ] hey , i should probably head out soon , too , but this was a really fun surprise , thomas . thomas : you 're welcome . i 'm glad you liked it . zoe : [ chuckles ] thomas : hey , could you look after douglas for a few minutes ? i think that hope wants to talk to me about something . zoe : sure . thomas : yeah ? zoe : yeah . thomas : okay . ope : [ clears throat ] thomas : hey , bud . you 're gon na go upstairs with zoe for just a few minutes . i think it 'd be good for you to spend some time together . zoe : yeah , i 'd like that . [ chuckles ] thomas : but it 's birthday , okay ? so be extra nice to her . hope : we 'll be right up in a bit , okay ? douglas : okay . thomas : okay . zoe : yeah . and i 'll show you the secret shortcut to the elevator . models only ? come on . hope : how on earth could you do that to your son ? thousands of women with metastatic breast cancer , ridge : can you please try and step away from all your anger ? brooke : [ sighs ] ridge : and judgment ? brooke : i wish i could . i wish i could walk into this office and see hope and thomas working together and not be filled with dread . ridge : okay , then why do n't you do that ? why do n't you see what everybody else sees ? two people working together , creating something , two people raising a kid together . brooke : ridge , have you ever stopped to ask yourself why this is so hard for me , why i am struggling with this ? something happened that i did n't tell you about . i had a moment of weakness , and i wanted a drink . ridge : well , you can't . you -- brooke : no , i did n't drink . i didn't . i wanted one , but i didn't . and i called my sponsor , and i went to a meeting . ridge : but we -- we ca n't let that happen . this -- it ca n't drive you to -- brooke : i know . it 's not . it 's just because of all the stress because of thomas . you know i 've been right about him , ridge . ridge : this is not about who 's right or wrong . it 's not about winning or losing , especially now . it 's gon na drive you to -- to drink ? why ca n't we just figure this out ? you 're the most important thing to me . this is what i want -- brooke : and you 're the most important thing to me . you know that . but i do n't trust thomas , not around hope . thomas : douglas is fine with zoe . she 's just taking him upstairs . hope : yeah , but you could n't see that he was upset ? thomas : douglas said it was okay . hope : he was being nice . but he was n't okay . thomas , letting him see that kiss was not okay . thomas : the kiss that i had with zoe ? hope : yes , or he did n't understand it . he does n't know what it means . thomas : it 's just a kiss . hope : but it 's not . thomas , have you told him about your relationship with zoe , who she is to you , who she could be to him ? he was so confused and worried . he did n't know what was going on . thomas : okay , i mean , i ... i do n't like upsetting him . hope : well , it did . thomas : i 'm sorry that i hurt his feelings . i never want to do that , but ... i mean , i am with zoe now . it 's perfectly natural for me to kiss her . hope : okay , but to kiss her like that in front of your son -- i mean , you have to think of how it looks to him , and he barely knows zoe . thomas : yeah , and that 's why i want them to spend time together , so they can get to know each other . hope : okay , but this is something that we should discuss , thomas . we 're co- parenting together . we are a family , so -- thomas : but we 're not . not really . i mean , you 're his mom , and i 'm his dad . but we do n't live together . we 're not , like , a real family . and if i 'm being honest , that 's -- that 's why douglas is upset . katie : i guess i should have seen that coming . bill : he had to know . katie : i betrayed sally 's trust . bill : you were trying to help . katie : i knew it would be hard for wyatt . he 's with flo now . but he still cares about sally . i just thought that he would be able to be there for her without ... i do n't want him to make her feel like an obligation . bill : he wo n't make her feel that way . katie : he will if he tells her that he knows . bill : look , wyatt is a passionate guy . he can work up a good head of steam . i could certainly understand that . but i trust that he 'll do what 's right for sally . sally : [ sighs ] [ exhaling deeply ] [ exhaling deeply ] wyatt : donna , thanks . no , i found her . yeah , thank you . hi . sally : wyatt . wyatt : hi . sally : what are you doing here ?

devon : esmerelda . i know that . i stupidly took my hurt and my jealousy into a non - relationship with her , and you and i have been at cross purposes ever since . neither one of us are actually saying how we really feel about each other . hilary : you 're wrong . devon : i 'm not wrong . i 'm admitting it , finally . you be honest now . hilary : devon . devon : what ? say it . you did feel the same things i was feeling , did n't you ? hilary : yes . dylan : i can do this , ca n't i ? i can be the donor . barton : no , you can not . according to those tests , your war injuries put you at risk . dylan : yeah , but what if i accept the risk ? nikki : no , dylan , no . barton : mr. mcavoy , i strongly recommend -- dylan : i know your recommendation , but there 's no legal reason i ca n't go through with this , right ? todd : i appreciate you wanting to help my brother , dylan , but nobody is expecting you to make this kind of sacrifice . nikki : please listen to what he 's saying and listen to the doctor . barton : take my recommendation or not . it 's a moot point . i refuse to do the surgery . dylan : you have the right to refuse paul the medical attention he needs ? barton : not at the risk of another patient . dylan : are n't you morally and legally obligated to serve your patient ? barton : mr. mcavoy , i 've answered your questions . dylan : and i 'm gon na call my lawyer . nikki : avery is gon na say the same thing that i am . you ca n't put yourself in danger , especially when we have no promise it will save paul 's life . christine : but it might . it might . it 's his last chance . nikki : christine . dylan : michael , you 're a lawyer . nikki : michael , please . dylan : please tell me what legal action i can take to make this happen . nikki : tell him no . dylan : just answer the question , please . what is the law ? michael : i 'm aware of precedent cases in which a person has overruled professional medical recommendations in a life or death situation . dylan : how ? michael : by proving that he was a viable candidate . and was of sound mind when the decision was made to proceed . dylan : so you have to do this ? nikki : no , you do n't , dylan . dylan : yes , i do . i 'm not just gon na let my father die . nikki : [ gasps ] christine : paul is his father ? nikki : we should n't get into this right now . christine : what is dylan talking about ? nikki : it 's a long story , christine . christine : well , i do n't understand it . nikki : i was wrong about ian ward , even though i had every reason in the world to believe that he was dylan 's father . paul is his father . christine : paul is . dylan : we need to get this transplant done . and i 'm volunteering . barton : it 's too risky . christine : you were the one that said the transplant is his only chance . dylan : i want to do this . michael : let dylan and the doctor work this out , christine . nikki : but you could die , dylan ! father , please talk to them . make them understand . todd : i suggest that we all stop for a moment and consider what paul might want if he were able to speak for himself . nikki : i know that paul would not allow this sacrifice . especially if he knew dylan was his son . christine : what about my life with paul ? michael : all right . how much time do we have to make a final decision ? barton : none . if this is to be done , it needs to be done now . nikki : you ca n't do it , dylan . you ca n't . avery : well , certainly ian ward is no one 's idea of a father . leslie : that 's not what i meant , avery . ian -- avery : he 's behind you . leslie : [ sighs ] ian : ladies . avery : dylan told me that he asked you to be tested to see if you were a match for paul . ian : regrettably , i was unable . avery : i think you mean `` unwillingly . `` leslie : i - i need a refill . ian : [ chuckles ] you fully recovered ? avery : from ? ian : being held at gunpoint by that troubled young man . avery : you keep bringing that up . ian : just reminding you that your past has a way of catching up . avery : and amazingly yours does n't . somehow all the horrible things you 've done and the innocent people you 've hurt , it does n't affect you at all , does it ? ian : well , unlike some , i 've learned from my experiences . avery : what have you learned , ian ? ian : well , if i share that with you , it 'll prevent you from making your own journey of self - discovery , avery . but i will tell you this . what i do know will prove more valuable than anyone even imagined . mariah : [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] nick : doorknob 's loose . you better get that fixed . someone could break in here . mariah : well , good thing there 's nothing to take . what do you want , nick ? nick : i came to apologize to you . for jumping the gun and assuming you took noah 's wallet . mariah : great ! bye . nick : i also want you to come back to the underground . mariah : no , you would n't , but i 'm guessing sharon would . nick : i 'm doing this for sharon . mariah : you must really love her . nick : i do . and for some reason , she needs you in her life right now . but there 's gon na be a few rules . victor : hi . where 's nicholas ? sharon : he went ... somewhere . he 'll probably be back soon . victor : so ... how are you doing ? sharon : are you seriously asking me , like you care ? victor : well , i do care , yeah . you still trying to recover your memories ? sharon : that explains it . you 're wondering if i 've remembered my dangerous secret , the one that supposedly will hurt nick . no . victor : but you 're working on it . sharon : no , i 've set that aside and my anxiety over it . i 'm just enjoying what nick and i have right now , so i wo n't be asking for your help to put the pieces back together . victor : all right . as you wish . sharon : there is something i would like to ask you , however . victor : really ? what 's that ? sharon : tell me everything you know about mariah , please . ian : take care , avery . and try not to dwell too much on the fact that you put a killer back on the street . could happen to anyone . nikki : oh , avery , thank god . ian : nikki . you look all flushed . nikki : shut up , you bastard . you let me think that you were dylan 's father , and you knew all along that was impossible . avery : what ? nikki : i need your help . i need you -- avery : wait a minute . what did you just say ? nikki : he is not dylan 's father . paul williams is . avery : paul ? nikki : yes , and now that dylan knows that , he is determined to save paul 's life . avery : oh , my god . he 's gon na have the surgery . he ca n't do that ! nikki : that 's right , and he wo n't listen to me . please come . you can get through to him . i 'm so glad that i found you . nick : what new rules ? nick : one -- you 're not gon na wait until you save up the entire amount to pay sharon back . you 're gon na give up a portion of your pay check until your debt is paid . mariah : that 's gon na take awhile . nick : two -- you will form a truce with noah , however unpleasant that may be . mariah : hey , he was the one who tried to -- nick : maybe if you stopped getting in everyone 's face with all this attitude , you would stop provoking people . three -- i 'm gon na let you start working behind the bar so you can ring out . mariah : really ? you 're gon na trust me with the till ? nick : let 's be clear about something , mariah . i in no way , shape , or form trust you , but this gesture will mean a lot to sharon . and plus i think you 'd be an idiot at this point to steal from me after you saw how quick i was to call the police . mariah : you make a good point . i was raking in the tips , and there are worse jobs , so ... yes . i will come back . nick : one other thing . mariah : oh , my god . why is there one other thing with bosses ? nick : after you 've paid back sharon , you will leave genoa city . neil : hey , cane . give me a little credit on this , all right ? yeah , hilary is very beautiful and she 's young , but she 's much more than that to me . very mature , she 's wise beyond her years . i respect her . she 's very capable of making her own sound decisions . cane : you clearly understand what you 're doing . i 'm just -- [ sighs ] neil : you 're just trying to help . cane : i 'm just trying to help , yeah . neil : okay . that 's fine . i appreciate that . but do us all a favor . why do n't you concentrate on helping lily cope with this . in the meantime , why do n't you let hilary and i focus on managing our own relationship without any more family interference . got to go . talk to you later . devon : i knew you felt the same way . hilary : felt , devon . past tense . before i got close to neil . devon : and what happened to your feelings for me ? hilary : neil did n't have to learn to forgive me . he just forgave me . devon : hilary . hilary : he did n't hide his feelings from me . devon : i asked you a question . hilary : neil is offering me something that i never thought i would have . a life that my mother never knew . devon : do you still have feelings for me ? hilary : whatever i felt for you ended the moment that i fell in love with neil . devon : i do n't believe that . hilary : what are you doing ? devon : i did n't do it alone . hilary : how could you possibly think that we could be together , devon ? do you have any idea what that would do to your father ? he was devastated after leslie . he 's a new man now . a man that i love . devon : i know you care about him . hilary : i made promises to neil . okay ? i 'm not gon na go back on those promises . devon : hilary . hilary : i wo n't . whatever we said here today , whatever we did ... we are never , ever gon na mention it . okay , neil deserves so much better than that , and i am determined to make him happy . devon : what about your happiness ? [ footsteps ] devon : hey . neil : oh . hey , i was just out for a walk , and ... hilary : neil . neil : ... and i thought you 'd be -- hi . i thought you 'd be home by now . devon : yeah , i , uh , i held her up . i 'm sorry . neil : did you , now ? well , that 's all right . listen , i was gon na call you , devon . devon : no , no , i already heard about the news . your wedding day is tomorrow , right ? well , good luck with that . neil : thanks . see you later . hilary . what 's going on ? you seem upset . hilary : no . i 'm not . neil : what did devon say to you ? hilary : you know , just that he does n't think that we should get married . neil : we do n't have to . hilary : what do you mean we do n't have to ? neil : hilary , do n't get me wrong . i see us as partners , you know ? mutual respect . similar goals . hilary : what about passion ? neil : what about passion ? of course there 's passion . i 'm very passionate about you . but by marrying me , you 'd be forgoing a life that you have n't even lived yet . i 've actually put a lot of pressure on you , and , baby , if you want to back out , i completely understand . victor : i know nothing about mariah . sharon : well , you may never admit this , but you did hire her to haunt me , and i know you would never employ anyone without vetting them first . victor : what have you learned about her ? sharon : just that she had a difficult childhood . she had an absent father and an uncaring mother . victor : mm - hmm . she told you that ? sharon : did you hear something different ? victor : you want to be rid of her ? sharon : no , i do n't want mariah gone . there 's something about the girl . and it 's just the resemblance to cassie . there 's something about her that ... i do n't know . it really touches me . victor : so you 're glad she 's here . sharon : well , i 'm not about to thank you for putting me through the hell that i experienced , but i -- i get the sense that mariah came into my life for a reason . victor : yeah , you may be right about that . mariah : it 's gon na take me a long time to pay sharon back . unless i get a big raise . nick : do n't push it . mariah : fine . fine . years from now , when i 'm all paid up , i 'll hit the road . nick : there 's one other thing . mariah : no , no , you already did your `` one other thing `` thing . nick : sharon is a very loving and nurturing person . do not take advantage of that . mariah : okay . nick : and do n't pretend like you care . mariah : hey , i 'm not pretending . nick : sharon has had her heart broken numerous times . do n't cause her any more pain . all right . that should be a little safer . mariah : thank you . you did n't have to do that for me . nick : i 'm just trying to make sure that no one comes in here and steals the money you owe sharon . todd : how you doing , christine ? christine : um , i 'm hopeful . paul has a chance . todd : yes , he does . christine : and that should be the only thing on my mind right now . todd : but it is n't ? christine : this news that he has a son with nikki -- [ sighs ] todd : i think it 's a blessing . it 's a true blessing . christine : it 's just -- it 's a bit overwhelming . [ sighs ] i 'm having a hard time taking it in . todd : why do n't you just put that aside for a moment ? christine : i want the rest of my life with him . todd : that hope you have for paul , it 's working . if i were n't in this line of work ... i 'd still have to say this is nothing short of a miracle . dylan : thanks for going to bat for me . michael : i was just stating the law . paul is a friend . so is christine . but nikki has a valid point . avery : dylan . dylan : hey , avery . look , i made a decision that -- avery : i know everything . i know about paul and ian and what you 're gon na do . dylan : good . that saves me some explaining . avery : okay , listen to me . i understand that you feel responsible for what happened to paul and that you wanted to help him even before you knew that he was your father , but -- [ voice breaking ] i 'm begging you to think about you and me . i ca n't lose you again . dylan , what do i have to do to convince you not to do this ? cane : are you all right ? devon : i took your advice . i went and told hilary how i feel about her . cane : what 'd she say ? devon : she has feelings for me , too . cane : she actually admitted that ? devon : she did n't have to . cane : so who 's gon na go and tell neil ? devon : no one 's gon na tell neil anything . 'cause hilary 's gon na marry him anyway , so ... cane : i 'm sorry . devon : someone had to get hurt , right ? cane : now it looks like all three of you will . hilary : you do n't want to marry me anymore ? neil : i do . you see ? see right there ? that 's pavlovian . conditioned response -- i 'm with you and `` i do `` comes falling out of my mouth . hilary : now , why would you say that ? neil : i want to be fair to you . hilary : i love you . and our engagement was our promise to each other . and we are gon na fulfill those promises tomorrow when we say `` i do `` for real . neil : that 's exactly what i wanted to hear . see , i was just trying to be considerate . not sure what i would have done if you wanted out . hilary : i do n't want out . neil : that 's good . good to hear . because i love you so very much , and i ca n't wait to get married to you tomorrow . hilary : see ? that 's what i hoped you 'd be saying tonight . neil : okay , so what do you think ? do we break the rules ? by seeing my beautiful bride the night before the wedding ? is that bad luck ? hilary : oh , more like perfect timing . neil : and everything is right as rain in our world again . ian : it was quite a burden i handed over to you . giving you information that was so critically relevant to your friends . i apologize for that , leslie . leslie : really ? ian : as you said , this news was bound to come out . ironically , from another source , as well . leslie : and since that 's the case ... ian : you 're a damn good lawyer . i owe my freedom to you . and i will always be in your debt . leslie : thank you for that , ian . and thank you for being so understanding . sounds like you 're not going to report my breach . ian : if we do n't pay for our mistakes , leslie , how will we ever learn from them ? [ cell phone rings ] ian : [ chuckles ] that 's probably the bar association . i had a nice , long chat with someone there . nick : what can i do for you , dad ? victor : i came to tell you that your mother has moved back to the mansion . nick : she moved home ? victor : where she belongs . and there 's something else that she would like to tell all of you , but i 'll leave that to her , okay ? sharon : where did you go ? nick : i found mariah , and she 's going to come back to work . sharon : [ gasps ] thank you . nick : you 're welcome . sharon : are you ready to go home ? nick : yes . victor : so , sharon has taken quite an interest in that girl . nick : yes , she has . thanks to you for bringing her into her life . in fact , into all our lives . thank you . victor : you 're not too happy with her , are you ? nick : i do n't trust her . victor : nor should you . nick : do you know something ? victor : not yet . sharon : thank you for saying whatever you did to convince mariah to forgive you . nick : i do n't think i 'm forgiven , but we did reach an agreement . sharon : i love you . nick : i love you , too . let 's go home so i can show you just how much i love you . sharon : i know how much . christine : please , you ca n't back out now . avery : i did n't think so . barton : you ready ? dylan : i survived before so i could come back to you . and i 'm gon na come back to you again . i promise . barton : i need to take you to pre - op . avery : [ sobs ] barton : need to get you and chief williams prepped for surgery . dylan : just one second . barton : sure . nikki : [ crying ] good luck . avery : [ sniffles ] dylan : it 's gon na be okay . avery : [ sniffles ] dylan : i love you . i love you .

leslie : yes . avery : well , then , as your partner , i 'm the only one that you can legally disclose this confidential information to , so what happened ? leslie : okay , there 's someone else who needs to know first . avery : no , you 're telling me now , leslie . leslie : avery , a number of lives will be affected . avery : mine wo n't . you 're saying this involves me ? ian . leslie : can we table this ? avery : no , we ca n't . ian has been taunting dylan , telling him that he has information that dylan needs to know . is that what this is about ? is there something that dylan needs to know about his father ? leslie : ian ward is no one 's father . mariah : why is it so important to you that i stay here ? you do n't even want to be seen with me . ian : now , that 's for your own good . you know that . you 're very important to me . that ultimate goal i was talking about is your happiness . mariah : you really think i could be happy here ? ian : yes , i know that you 've led somewhat of a nomadic existence up until now . i feel partially responsible for that . you 've been unable to build any permanent relationships . mariah : except with you . ian : yes , and that 's very gratifying for me , but you deserve so much more . you deserve what everybody else has . mariah : it 's too hard . ian : no , do n't you give up . you do n't let anyone tell you that you 're not worthy , that you 're somehow less . do you want to leave that impression around here ? mariah : no . ian : hell , no ! mariah : hell , no . ian : that 's my girl . all right , you go get some sleep now , okay ? we 'll talk more about this tomorrow . a little less publicly . and everything will seem better tomorrow , i promise . okay ? mariah : okay . victor : [ sighs ] you 're playing with fire , girl . i warned you what it would mean to cross me . but you also remember what it means to be my ally . when you were useful to me , you profited handsomely . mariah : what are you getting at , victor ? victor : i think you know what i 'm getting at . i 'd prefer an ally . you hold onto that thought , okay ? nick : what are we doing ? what are we doing ? why are we doing this ? we should be getting ready to go home -- to our home . sharon : our home . nick : yes . sharon : but you know what , nick , i just ca n't stop thinking about her . nick : well , i already apologized for being too quick to accuse mariah , so ... sharon : but you did n't apologize to mariah . nick : well , i would have , and noah would have , too , if she would have stuck around and listened to us . but she did n't . so as far as i 'm concerned , this is over . sharon : how could it be over ? she 's still out there somewhere upset . nick : okay , we have had more than one argument about mariah already , and i do n't want to have anymore . sharon : where are you going ? nick : i refuse to let this woman get in between us . neil : so let me get this straight . there 's another reason for postponing my wedding . cane : neil , you 're a man who has a lot of life experience . you had a very successful career , you had a very successful marriage , and you have grown kids . you 're a man who 's lived his life . you know what you want . neil : yes , i have . and hilary -- cane : is just discovering herself . when we worked together , we talked , all right ? basically she told me that she has n't had a chance to live her life yet . she has n't had a chance to actually fall in love . neil : okay . this may sound very strange to you , but she is in love . cane : i do n't doubt that . i really do n't . but we 've all been in love , right ? before we actually knew that that was the person we wanted to spend the rest of our life with . neil : speaking for myself , i guess more than a few times . cane : so do you think it 's fair to expect her to make a choice before she actually knows that there is a choice ? devon : you 're getting married tomorrow ? hilary : neil and i love each other . there 's no reason to wait . devon : did you not hear anything that i just said to you ? hilary : that you have feelings for me . yeah , i heard you . but you need to hear me now , devon . i am marrying your father , a man that i trust , i admire . someone who makes me feel special and secure . a man that would never betray me . devon : well , there you go . that 's what you 're gon na get . you make it sound great . where 's the passion ? hilary : how dare you ? devon : what do you mean , how dare me ? do n't stand here and make it seem like the feelings i have are one - sided , 'cause i know they 're not . hilary : how could you possibly know that , huh ? devon : when i was getting to know you and learning to forgive you , i do n't care what you say , i could tell there was something there . and then you had to go and kiss jack . hilary : and who were you kissing ? devon : esmerelda . i know that . i stupidly took my hurt and my jealousy into a non - relationship with her , and you and i have been at cross purposes ever since . neither one of us are actually saying how we really feel about each other . hilary : you 're wrong . devon : i 'm not wrong . i 'm admitting it , finally . you be honest now . hilary : devon . devon : what ? say it . you did feel the same things i was feeling , did n't you ? hilary : yes . dylan : i can do this , ca n't i ? i can be the donor . barton : no , you can not . according to those tests , your war injuries put you at risk . dylan : yeah , but what if i accept the risk ? nikki : no , dylan , no . barton : mr. mcavoy , i strongly recommend -- dylan : i know your recommendation , but there 's no legal reason i ca n't go through with this , right ? todd : i appreciate you wanting to help my brother , dylan , but nobody is expecting you to make this kind of sacrifice . nikki : please listen to what he 's saying and listen to the doctor . barton : take my recommendation or not . it 's a moot point . i refuse to do the surgery . dylan : you have the right to refuse paul the medical attention he needs ? barton : not at the risk of another patient . dylan : are n't you morally and legally obligated to serve your patient ? barton : mr. mcavoy , i 've answered your questions . dylan : and i 'm gon na call my lawyer . nikki : avery is gon na say the same thing that i am . you ca n't put yourself in danger , especially when we have no promise it will save paul 's life . christine : but it might . it might . it 's his last chance . nikki : christine . dylan : michael , you 're a lawyer . nikki : michael , please . dylan : please tell me what legal action i can take to make this happen . nikki : tell him no . dylan : just answer the question , please . what is the law ? michael : i 'm aware of precedent cases in which a person has overruled professional medical recommendations in a life or death situation . dylan : how ? michael : by proving that he was a viable candidate . and was of sound mind when the decision was made to proceed . dylan : so you have to do this ? nikki : no , you do n't , dylan . dylan : yes , i do . i 'm not just gon na let my father die . nikki : [ gasps ] christine : paul is his father ? nikki : we should n't get into this right now . christine : what is dylan talking about ? nikki : it 's a long story , christine . christine : well , i do n't understand it . nikki : i was wrong about ian ward , even though i had every reason in the world to believe that he was dylan 's father . paul is his father . christine : paul is . dylan : we need to get this transplant done . and i 'm volunteering . barton : it 's too risky . christine : you were the one that said the transplant is his only chance . dylan : i want to do this . michael : let dylan and the doctor work this out , christine . nikki : but you could die , dylan ! father , please talk to them . make them understand . todd : i suggest that we all stop for a moment and consider what paul might want if he were able to speak for himself . nikki : i know that paul would not allow this sacrifice . especially if he knew dylan was his son . christine : what about my life with paul ? michael : all right . how much time do we have to make a final decision ? barton : none . if this is to be done , it needs to be done now . nikki : you ca n't do it , dylan . you ca n't . avery : well , certainly ian ward is no one 's idea of a father . leslie : that 's not what i meant , avery . ian -- avery : he 's behind you . leslie : [ sighs ] ian : ladies . avery : dylan told me that he asked you to be tested to see if you were a match for paul . ian : regrettably , i was unable . avery : i think you mean `` unwillingly . `` leslie : i - i need a refill . ian : [ chuckles ] you fully recovered ? avery : from ? ian : being held at gunpoint by that troubled young man . avery : you keep bringing that up . ian : just reminding you that your past has a way of catching up . avery : and amazingly yours does n't . somehow all the horrible things you 've done and the innocent people you 've hurt , it does n't affect you at all , does it ? ian : well , unlike some , i 've learned from my experiences . avery : what have you learned , ian ? ian : well , if i share that with you , it 'll prevent you from making your own journey of self - discovery , avery . but i will tell you this . what i do know will prove more valuable than anyone even imagined . mariah : [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] nick : doorknob 's loose . you better get that fixed . someone could break in here . mariah : well , good thing there 's nothing to take . what do you want , nick ? nick : i came to apologize to you . for jumping the gun and assuming you took noah 's wallet . mariah : great ! bye . nick : i also want you to come back to the underground . mariah : no , you would n't , but i 'm guessing sharon would . nick : i 'm doing this for sharon . mariah : you must really love her . nick : i do . and for some reason , she needs you in her life right now . but there 's gon na be a few rules . victor : hi . where 's nicholas ? sharon : he went ... somewhere . he 'll probably be back soon . victor : so ... how are you doing ? sharon : are you seriously asking me , like you care ? victor : well , i do care , yeah . you still trying to recover your memories ? sharon : that explains it . you 're wondering if i 've remembered my dangerous secret , the one that supposedly will hurt nick . no . victor : but you 're working on it . sharon : no , i 've set that aside and my anxiety over it . i 'm just enjoying what nick and i have right now , so i wo n't be asking for your help to put the pieces back together . victor : all right . as you wish . sharon : there is something i would like to ask you , however . victor : really ? what 's that ? sharon : tell me everything you know about mariah , please . ian : take care , avery . and try not to dwell too much on the fact that you put a killer back on the street . could happen to anyone . nikki : oh , avery , thank god . ian : nikki . you look all flushed . nikki : shut up , you bastard . you let me think that you were dylan 's father , and you knew all along that was impossible . avery : what ? nikki : i need your help . i need you -- avery : wait a minute . what did you just say ? nikki : he is not dylan 's father . paul williams is . avery : paul ? nikki : yes , and now that dylan knows that , he is determined to save paul 's life . avery : oh , my god . he 's gon na have the surgery . he ca n't do that ! nikki : that 's right , and he wo n't listen to me . please come . you can get through to him . i 'm so glad that i found you . nick : what new rules ? nick : one -- you 're not gon na wait until you save up the entire amount to pay sharon back . you 're gon na give up a portion of your pay check until your debt is paid . mariah : that 's gon na take awhile . nick : two -- you will form a truce with noah , however unpleasant that may be . mariah : hey , he was the one who tried to -- nick : maybe if you stopped getting in everyone 's face with all this attitude , you would stop provoking people . three -- i 'm gon na let you start working behind the bar so you can ring out . mariah : really ? you 're gon na trust me with the till ? nick : let 's be clear about something , mariah . i in no way , shape , or form trust you , but this gesture will mean a lot to sharon . and plus i think you 'd be an idiot at this point to steal from me after you saw how quick i was to call the police . mariah : you make a good point . i was raking in the tips , and there are worse jobs , so ... yes . i will come back . nick : one other thing . mariah : oh , my god . why is there one other thing with bosses ? nick : after you 've paid back sharon , you will leave genoa city . neil : hey , cane . give me a little credit on this , all right ? yeah , hilary is very beautiful and she 's young , but she 's much more than that to me . very mature , she 's wise beyond her years . i respect her . she 's very capable of making her own sound decisions . cane : you clearly understand what you 're doing . i 'm just -- [ sighs ] neil : you 're just trying to help . cane : i 'm just trying to help , yeah . neil : okay . that 's fine . i appreciate that . but do us all a favor . why do n't you concentrate on helping lily cope with this . in the meantime , why do n't you let hilary and i focus on managing our own relationship without any more family interference . got to go . talk to you later . devon : i knew you felt the same way . hilary : felt , devon . past tense . before i got close to neil . devon : and what happened to your feelings for me ? hilary : neil did n't have to learn to forgive me . he just forgave me . devon : hilary . hilary : he did n't hide his feelings from me . devon : i asked you a question . hilary : neil is offering me something that i never thought i would have . a life that my mother never knew . devon : do you still have feelings for me ? hilary : whatever i felt for you ended the moment that i fell in love with neil . devon : i do n't believe that . hilary : what are you doing ? devon : i did n't do it alone . hilary : how could you possibly think that we could be together , devon ? do you have any idea what that would do to your father ? he was devastated after leslie . he 's a new man now . a man that i love . devon : i know you care about him . hilary : i made promises to neil . okay ? i 'm not gon na go back on those promises . devon : hilary . hilary : i wo n't . whatever we said here today , whatever we did ... we are never , ever gon na mention it . okay , neil deserves so much better than that , and i am determined to make him happy . devon : what about your happiness ?

[ scene_break ] chelsea : do any of you have any idea what it 's like to lose a child ? 'cause i do n't , not first - handedly , but i was there the entire time my dad and hope mourned the loss of my little brother , zack . and i know that ford was sick and twisted . but i just think his family deserves some kind of closure . because no matter what he was in life , he still deserves a proper burial . morgan : ford was a disgusting rapist who deserved exactly what he got . chelsea : that 's not the issue , morgan . morgan : of course it is . the way that i see it is somebody 's dead , and i 'm not going to waste one more minute with this on my conscience . okay , it was an accident . look , i say we just stick to our story , let all this die down , and move on with our lives . [ scene_break ] marlena : okay , what is the idea that i 'm going to hate ? dr. carrington : john needs more intensive therapy than we can provide here . although your counsel may be relevant and perhaps even beneficial , obviously it would be inappropriate for you to treat your own husband . marlena : and what are you suggesting ? dr. carrington : we need to move john to the psychiatric ward if we hope to see any progress . marlena : you 're right . you 're right . i do hate the idea . dr. carrington : but you must know it 's for the best . marlena : i think we should consider other options . dr. carrington : that time has passed . clearly john nearly escaping under your watch only proves that we do n't have the proper security intact on a regular hospital floor , even with a security guard on him 24 - 7 . marlena : it does not mean -- dr. carrington : nor do we have all the tools readily available to treat his condition . it 's for the best . marlena : when are you thinking about moving him ? dr. carrington : i 'm starting the paperwork right away . look , you 've been through a lot here , dr. evans . yet you 've maintained your professionalism despite the fact that this is your husband . i 'm impressed . marlena : thank you . dr. carrington : i still want you to consult on john 's case , but others will have to take over . i 'll be in touch . marlena : like hell they will .

[ scene_break ] bo : yeah . you are a damn good cop . but with you , me , shawn all out there on the streets putting our lives on the line -- it 's kind of risky . hope : what can i say ? it 's a family business , brady . we 're good . we 'll stay safe . bo : if you say so . hope : and top priority is finding claire . bo : well , with all us brady 's on the case , we ca n't help but find her . [ scene_break ] marlena : john 's personality has been altered . his behavior is inconsistent with the man that i know . his memory has been wiped clean . dr. carrington : though he remembers the name stefano . marlena : yes , and i would say that his reaction to that indicates a strong internal conflict . dr. carrington : possibly . marlena : i 'm sure of it . dr. carrington : okay , so , where are you going with this ? marlena : john has certain qualities that i am sure can be accessed by traditional therapy and time . i know you 're the doctor of record , but i would strongly suggest that you take him off all the medications . dr. carrington : well , i read the medical history in john 's chart . if i truly believe he will not become violent , i will consider pulling back on the drugs . marlena : thank you . where do we go from here ? dr. carrington : well , i do have another idea , but i do n't think you 're gon na like it .

[ scene_break ] billie : so , what do you say , nick ? let me help you . tell me what you know . nick : unfortunately i do n't know any more than what chelsea already told both of us . ford came over . he slept off a night of drunkenness and he left . billie : you really want to stick to that ? nick : i really need to get these lab reports graded and back to my students . billie : i am begging you . clue me in . otherwise we 're all gon na get nailed to the wall . nick : i 'm sorry , billie . i wish i could help you . i ca n't . [ scene_break ] chelsea : do any of you have any idea what it 's like to lose a child ? 'cause i do n't , not first - handedly , but i was there the entire time my dad and hope mourned the loss of my little brother , zack . and i know that ford was sick and twisted . but i just think his family deserves some kind of closure . because no matter what he was in life , he still deserves a proper burial . morgan : ford was a disgusting rapist who deserved exactly what he got . chelsea : that 's not the issue , morgan . morgan : of course it is . the way that i see it is somebody 's dead , and i 'm not going to waste one more minute with this on my conscience . okay , it was an accident . look , i say we just stick to our story , let all this die down , and move on with our lives . [ scene_break ] marlena : okay , what is the idea that i 'm going to hate ? dr. carrington : john needs more intensive therapy than we can provide here . although your counsel may be relevant and perhaps even beneficial , obviously it would be inappropriate for you to treat your own husband . marlena : and what are you suggesting ? dr. carrington : we need to move john to the psychiatric ward if we hope to see any progress . marlena : you 're right . you 're right . i do hate the idea . dr. carrington : but you must know it 's for the best . marlena : i think we should consider other options . dr. carrington : that time has passed . clearly john nearly escaping under your watch only proves that we do n't have the proper security intact on a regular hospital floor , even with a security guard on him 24 - 7 . marlena : it does not mean -- dr. carrington : nor do we have all the tools readily available to treat his condition . it 's for the best . marlena : when are you thinking about moving him ? dr. carrington : i 'm starting the paperwork right away . look , you 've been through a lot here , dr. evans . yet you 've maintained your professionalism despite the fact that this is your husband . i 'm impressed . marlena : thank you . dr. carrington : i still want you to consult on john 's case , but others will have to take over . i 'll be in touch . marlena : like hell they will . [ scene_break ] max : hey ... i love the fact that you 're looking out for me , but this is n't about me . it never was . stephanie : i ca n't allow you to sacrifice yourself because of something that happened to me . max : it 's not a matter of sacrificing . if you girls decide as a group to tell the truth , then whatever . i 'll tell the truth , too . stephanie : and then what , we all end up behind bars ? what does that gain for anyone ? max : i do n't know . stephanie : look , even if chelsea just gets off with a slap on the wrist , we will all be forced to go to trial . cordy and i will have to relive every disgusting thing that ford did to us . it will be public , and i 'll be humiliated . i ca n't have his attorney attacking me , making me sound like the slut of salem while our defense makes me re - create every disgusting thing that he did to me , how he held me down and ripped open my clothes and ... max : it 's okay . it 's okay . stephanie : i ca n't go to the police . i ca n't .

[ flashback ] kendall : come on . this is not some anonymous test - tube experiment . my friend 's life depends on you implanting those embryos in me on schedule . now , is that happening or not ? greg : if the embryos are no longer viable , then we 'll postpone the procedure for a month . kendall : no . i mean , i 'm sorry . we ca n't do that . greenlee already came to you once . you made her play an insane waiting game . if we put her off any longer -- a month , a week , a day -- she wo n't make it , doctor . you do n't know her , i do . ryan 's baby is what she 's living for . greg : let me see what i can find out , and i 'll call you . kendall : no , i am here , doc . now , get used to it . i 'm not leaving until you tell me if greenlee 's little ryan survived .

[ back to the present ] greg : kendall was right . i saw what happened to your wife when she lost her first baby . if she were to lose her last chance of having your child , greenlee would be decimated . kendall understood this more than anyone . she was determined not to let that happen .

[ scene_break ] greg : so your child is important to you , mr. lavery ? ryan : this has blown apart my wife 's life , my life , kendall 's life . yes , i 'd like to know who 's responsible -- you or kendall . i want to know who manipulated whom . greg : no one manipulated anyone . there was a power failure two days before i was due to implant greenlee 's embryos . kendall was concerned . she came to me , i told her i would investigate the extent of the damage to the fertilized embryos , if any . she wanted to know , then and there . [ flashback ] kendall : come on . this is not some anonymous test - tube experiment . my friend 's life depends on you implanting those embryos in me on schedule . now , is that happening or not ? greg : if the embryos are no longer viable , then we 'll postpone the procedure for a month . kendall : no . i mean , i 'm sorry . we ca n't do that . greenlee already came to you once . you made her play an insane waiting game . if we put her off any longer -- a month , a week , a day -- she wo n't make it , doctor . you do n't know her , i do . ryan 's baby is what she 's living for . greg : let me see what i can find out , and i 'll call you . kendall : no , i am here , doc . now , get used to it . i 'm not leaving until you tell me if greenlee 's little ryan survived . [ back to the present ] greg : what i discovered was devastating . the backup generator had failed , and greenlee 's fertilized embryos , they were no longer usable . i told kendall . she was distraught .

[ back to the present ] greg : kendall was determined to help greenlee . she was prepared to sacrifice so much for her friend . i mean , not many women are willing to co - opt their bodies for nine months , much let alone give up control of their lives . kendall was n't thinking about herself that night . all she cared about was putting your baby into greenlee 's arms . it was extraordinary . i think kendall slater 's probably the most selfless woman that i 've ever known . [ scene_break ] tad : well , it 's perfectly obvious the good doctor intends to keep an eagle eye on kendall until baby day . di : but it was something more than that . i mean , when dr. madden told hazel about how everyone found out how kendall was inseminated , hazel said , `` i told you so . `` tad : well , it 's not surprising that she would know that kendall was the mother , not a surrogate , so it 's probably not a good idea to tell your boss `` i told you so `` even if you 're right . di : i know , but it was more than that . he got kind of ticked off . he said she should know his reasons for agreeing to kendall 's insemination , that his reasons should be obvious . tad : wonder what the hell that means .

[ scene_break ] di : yeah , it was more than just the words . you know , it was the way he said it . there was something more , something that hazel understood . what , too much imagination , not enough fact ? tad : no . you did good . di : do i get my magnifying glass now ? tad : patience , grasshopper .

[ back to the present ] greg : kendall was right . i saw what happened to your wife when she lost her first baby . if she were to lose her last chance of having your child , greenlee would be decimated . kendall understood this more than anyone . she was determined not to let that happen .

kim : why ? well , i do n't know . i mean , maybe it 's because when she shows up , you 're not sure what 's gon na happen . it 's not scripted . there 's an element of surprise . look , all i know is she brings a lot more eyeballs to the screen . and is n't that what we 're here supposed to do ?

henry : with pleasure . i know many of you out there are watching at home with your young children , and i know that you all agree with me that what aired the other day was simply inappropriate and unacceptable ! kim : ms . swift , may i ask you , do you have children ? henry : no , i have not been blessed as such . vienna : oh , that 's a surprise . henry : but i know that if i did have children and they had been at my knee watching as ms. hyatt 's mammary bounced up and down on the screen , their poor little eyes would have been scarred for life ! vienna : it was an accident . henry : there is a time and a place for baring one 's body , ms. hyatt . that is at night with the lights off and in the bedroom , not on my daytime television . katie : this woman is nuts ! kim : i would remind you that i did explain to you , that was not intentional . that was an accident . brad : we were doing the tango . it could have happened to anybody . henry : i think some of my moral friends would disagree . brad : okay , well , let me show you . henry : show me what ? brad : how it could happen . henry : oh , i do n't think so . brad : oh , come on ! you might even enjoy it . henry : that is rude and suggestive ! and i am hardly dressed to dance . brad : please , ms . swift . let 's just try it . come on . henry : you watch your hips , young man . brad : really , no problem . whoa . okay . you 're pretty light on your feet . henry : mother was a fan of the june taylor dancers ooh . oh , my . katie : oh , my god . henry has got to see this . brad : that -- that 's how it 's done .

[ scene_break ] krystal : you 're saying that little adam never left pine valley ? david : yeah . krystal : he left on adam 's jet . david : i had someone check the flight plan . the plane took off , but there 's no record of it landing in europe or anywhere else . which is not surprising considering adam could barely pay for a taxi to the airport . krystal : wait , wait , but the plane has to be somewhere . david : yeah , it 's probably in some hangar outside of town . and that piece of paper you saw erica hand to j.r. -- i bet you it did have an address on it , an address that 's local , so daddy can watch his little boy blow out the candles . krystal : oh , god . my grandson 's first birthday without his mama , and i could n't be there . david : we 're going to get him back , all right ? and you will never miss another birthday with your grandson again .

[ scene_break ] zach : there have always been three people in this marriage -- you , me , and ryan . kendall : so , what , you 're saying our relationship is a sham ? that i never loved you ? zach : no . i think you loved me as much as you could . then there was ryan . kendall : zach , that 's ridiculous . zach : is it ? how many times did i ask you to stay out of his business ? but you could n't . you just want to control everything he does . and he found somebody . he found annie . he was happy . he got married , and you had to break them up . kendall : yeah , with good reason . i did n't want spike to have a psycho killer for a stepmother . zach : or because you did n't want him to be with another woman . kendall : no , that 's -- that 's crazy . i -- i practically forced him to be with greenlee . zach : you pushed him towards greenlee so he would n't be around you , and you just -- you did n't want to be tempted . kendall : no . i 'm your wife . i want to be with you . zach : i know a part of you does , a big part . and when we 're together -- i was thinking about us . there 's something missing here . what is it ? and i finally figured it out . it 's a piece that belongs to ryan . kendall : zach , ryan is my friend . he is my friend . i just want him to be happy . that 's why i pushed him to be with greenlee . not because i was afraid of what i 'd do if he was available . zach : but the second he was , you went to bed with him . from the morgue to his bed . i know this is an awful thing to say , but i 'm glad greenlee is n't here to see this , to see what a great friend you really are . [ scene_break ] jake : did you see an envelope at all ? there 's something i 'm expecting . it should have my name on it . nurse : i have n't seen anything . gayle : ah , is this what you 're looking for ? jake : ah , you 're a lifesaver . thank you , thank you . where was that , just out of curiosity ? hey . ryan : hey . jake : um -- ryan : well , you must be making some serious overtime , huh , aidan ? aidan : i 'm not here for zach . ryan : really ? well , then why do you keep following me around all over the place , showing up at the hospital , showing up at fusion -- jack : because i called him . i thought greenlee 's ex - husband should be here when we got the dna results . jake : sorry . [ scene_break ] kendall : you 're right . you 're right . i have spent way too much time and energy on ryan , just like you have with reese . but what matters right now is us , zach . our marriage has been tested in every way possible . i mean , i thought you were dead . you thought i may never wake up . we almost lost both of our boys . but our love for each other and for our family , it always gets us through . zach : not anymore . kendall : if anyone should want to quit , it should be me . but i do n't . i want to fight . zach : and i do n't ? i fought . we both did , and it 's just -- it 's never enough . kendall : we have two beautiful boys . we have -- we have a home . we have a life . zach : yeah . we had a life before this . and you ca n't let go of it , so how can we move into the future if you keep clinging to the past ? kendall : including other people in our lives is not clinging to the past . i could be close with someone . i could spend time with them and -- zach : sleep with them . kendall : all right , zach , if you feel this way -- i mean , if you really feel that we 're -- that we 're just doomed , then why did n't you get out a long time ago ? zach : i do n't know . waiting for a miracle , i guess . i was looking at you when you were in the coma . just thinking , `` hey , we 're going to be ok when you come out of this . we 're going to start over and everything 's going to be fine . `` you came out , and we 're here . kendall : are you kidding me ? are you kidding me ? my whole world was turned upside down . zach : i tried to explain to you what happened , and you shut me out . kendall : what did you expect ? zach : i expected you to try . before the coma , at least you tried , you pretended to try . kendall : you 're surprised that i 'm different ? i had my heart cut out and my brother 's stuck in . zach : and i would love to blame your brother for this . it has nothing to do with him . it 's us . it 's all on us . kendall : ok , all right . ok . i -- i accept that . i -- i agree with you . we both made mistakes . and we 're both at fault . zach : yeah . you hung on to ryan , and i hung on to you . it 's time one of us let go . let it be me .

[ monitor beeping ] sam : danny . danny , what are you doing ? danny : [ laughs ] sam : hey . come on , kiddo . you got to let go of this man 's hand , because he 's -- he 's actually sleeping . he 's taking a nap . he 's trying to get some rest . you know when you take a nap and you feel better when you wake up ? that 's what he 's doing . danny : he got an owie . sam : i know . he has an owie , so come on . let 's go . danny : no . sam : honey . danny : [ mumbles ] sam : no , i 'm not playing around . we have to go . danny : no ! sam : hey . okay , big guy . what 's the story ? why wo n't you let this man 's hand go ? sabrina : sam all right ? patrick : yeah , no , she 's -- she 's fine . she just had to bring danny in for a checkup , and he 's kind of at that age where he 's a little hard to wrangle , so i 'm just giving her a hand . i think she 's in icu right now . sabrina : wait . they moved danny to the icu ? did dr. clay find out that he -- patrick : no , no , danny 's -- danny 's fine . sabrina : oh ! patrick : i was in icu . sam was there looking for me . i was actually helping out elizabeth with a patient . because obrecht 's not here , i kind of snuck in to give her a hand . sabrina : hmm . which patient ? patrick : john doe . sabrina : oh , the guy from the accident . yeah , no , i was here the day that he was brought in . he was in really bad shape . patrick : yeah . sabrina : were you able to help ? patrick : well , not really . he 's still unconscious , and since i 'm still the , uh , physician non grata , i was only able to look at his scans . sabrina : how 'd they look ? patrick : hard to tell as of right now . um , his cerebral edema has gone down considerably , but whether he 's able to wake up with full brain function is anybody 's guess . i did see something a little bit interesting on his scans , though . it turns out that this is n't john doe 's first rodeo . he 's had brain surgery before . dante : look , patrick has to find out if your father 's responsible for that accident . it 's my job to investigate this whole thing . the best way for all of these to happen is for us to be at this meeting tracy set up . lulu : yeah . i understand what 's driving patrick . he lost a child . we had a taste of that sorrow when we had to give up our baby girl . and it 's like the worst pain in the world . dante : yeah , it is . lulu : someone told rafe to drive patrick 's car off the road to deliberately hurt him and his family . i 've been thinking about it constantly , and it 's impossible for me to believe that that person was my father . it does n't make any sense . neither does the idea that my dad is somehow plotting against yours ? sonny : someone tried to kill you , michael , and you wound up killing him . you think that 's easy to go through ? michael : it 's been handled . and we all agreed that it never happened , so life -- life goes on . sonny : you do n't think they 're not gon na try again ? that 's exactly why i 've decided to send you away . kiki : maxie was here ? please tell me she did n't find my mom . morgan : no , no , i do n't think she would have scarfed the food down if she knew it was for a pregnant woman . she thought it was for you . kiki : all right , well , then what was she doing here ? was she protesting the wainscoting and the light fixtures ? morgan : no , actually , she was here to apologize for doing that to us . kiki : surprising and extremely random . morgan : yeah , well , it gets better . after she was done apologizing , i somehow ended up giving maxie relationship advice . maxie : okay , here it goes . nathan . nathan : maxie . maxie : i 've been thinking about you nonstop since we got back . i think about you when i 'm sitting in my bedroom at my mom and mac 's house . mostly i think about the little things , like how great the shower smells after you 've used your wonderful soap or the fact that you always offer to make me some of your special coffee after you 've made some for yourself in the morning or -- or that playlist of really great music that -- that you blast when you 're working out , which seems to be all the time -- not that i mind , because i do n't know that music , and i really like it . nathan : and i will tell you about all this stuff , the coffee and the music and the soap , tonight at dinner . maxie : that 's just it , nathan . [ clears throat ] i can not go out with you tonight . nathan : we can reschedule . i 'm flexible . maxie : no , i do n't have anything else to do . it 's ... nathan : look , you 're probably still recovering from everything that you just went through , okay ? like , i know i 'm not even 100 % , and levi and his band of psychos had you a lot longer than they had me . you got to be physically and emotionally drained . so , we can wait a few days . maxie : no , nathan , that 's not it , either . nathan : well , what is it ? maxie : i 'm sorry . i ca n't go out with you at all . morgan : i tried to tell maxie that i was n't the right person to be giving relationship advice , but then she promised to stop talking and leave if i told her what to do , so i just jumped at the chance of that . kiki : so , you told her what ? morgan : i just told her to trust her heart . kiki : [ chuckles ] uh , nice , but completely noncommittal . whatever . morgan : yeah , i mean , i think i just confused her more . but anyway , the upside of the whole thing is that she extends her apology to you and michael . which how -- how did things go with michael this morning ? kiki : yeah , about that . um ... morgan : look , i - i know i 'm putting you in a tough position , asking you not to tell him that our dad killed aj , but i promise you that this is the best way . kiki : keeping secrets from michael almost became a moot point last night . morgan : what do you mean ? kiki : someone tried to kill him . sonny : do n't be naive . you 've lived at my house . you know how it works . one hitman does n't finish the job , you get another one . michael : dad , i trust you to handle it , okay , but i really got to get to work . sonny : you 're not -- you 're not brushing me off here . i need you someplace safe so i can figure out who targeted you , and i can eliminate the threat . michael : dad , you 're worried about me . you 're concerned about me , and you have every right to be . but you have the national guard of the underworld outside my door , and you told me you have security all over elq . sonny : i do , but i do n't think it 's enough . i do n't want to take a chance with my son . you 're too important to me . michael : dad , i am not 10 anymore . i do n't need to be sent away to keep me safe . sonny : i ca n't lose you , michael ! you understand ? carly : hey , what 's going on between you guys ? why are you arguing ? michael : dad is trying to force me into hiding . can you please tell him he 's overreacting ? carly : i ca n't do that , michael . i agree with your father . lulu : i am the first one to admit that my father is far from perfect . he was m.i.a . for large chunks of my life , but whenever it mattered , he was there . and i knew deep down that he really loved me . dante : of course he loves you . lulu : whenever things would get really tough , he would just , like , magically appear . when i decided to have an abortion and the quartermaines took legal action to force me to keep the baby , my dad was there . he was there , and he was making everything right . when jerry jacks held a bunch of us hostage at the metro court , my dad saved the day . my dad has saved my life i do n't even know how many times . dante : i know he has . lulu : and now because of something that a kid said and -- and a bunch of coincidences , i am supposed to believe that my dad intentionally hurt patrick 's daughter , that my dad is dealing cocaine and heroin to kids ? i 'm sorry . no . no , this person that -- that everyone is talking about , this is not the person that i know and love . this man is not my father . dante : okay , we 're not sure of anything yet , but even you have to admit since your father came out of miscavige , he -- he has not been himself . lulu : it does n't mean that he has turned into a monster . dante : no , no , i 'm not saying he -- he is a monster . but i 'm saying we have to find out exactly what is going on , and the best way to do that is for us to go to amsterdam . lulu : yeah , except ... i 'm not going . patrick : hey , um , i 'm sorry to cut this short , but i need to go find sam . sabrina : you two still working together ? patrick : yeah , yeah , we are . sabrina : well , before you go , have you found out anything else about the accident that killed gabriel ? patrick : well , a little bit . we -- we think we might have a new lead . sabrina : this is n't about the crichton - clark clinic again , is it ? patrick : no , no , i 'm putting that place behind me . over and done with . no , the person we 're investigating has nothing to do with that place or anyone in it . sabrina : all right , then . who do you think did it ? sam : i do n't get this . daniel edward morgan , why are you doing this ? why wo n't you let go of this guy 's hand ? elizabeth : sam , is everything okay ? sam : i do n't understand . danny will not let go of this guy 's hand . i keep -- i 'm afraid if i yell at him , he 's gon na throw a tantrum . elizabeth : i have something that might work . sam : you do ? elizabeth : hey , danny . kiddo , look what i have . look at this . [ gasps ] sam : do you want a lollipop ? elizabeth : you want it ? you can have it as long as you sit down over here . come here . we 'll sit you on this stool . you hold it . and i 'll put you here . there you go . good job . sam : way to go . elizabeth : i have a lot of experience with stubborn little boys . sam : yeah . elizabeth : when all else fails , you bribe them . sam : clearly it works . elizabeth : so , that was funny he was hanging on to this patient right now . what was that all about ? sam : yeah , it was so strange . he -- he would not let go of this guy 's hand . it was just so weird . elizabeth : then i must be a little weird , too . i 'm not even supposed to be here right now . but for some reason , i just ... i do n't know . i feel the need to stick close to this one . sam : i mean , clearly you do care about your patients . elizabeth : it 's more than that . i have patients day in and day out , but i do n't feel the need to care for them like this . there 's something different about this guy . sam : so , what do you think it is that 's making you feel such a strong connection to him ? do you know who he is ? elizabeth : that 's the thing . no one knows . he was hit by a car , and i happened to be here when he was brought in . he was semi - conscious for a bit , but he could n't answer any questions . he does n't have any i.d . on him , and now -- now he 's a john doe . sam : well , someone 's got to miss him . elizabeth : you would think , but no one seems to be looking for him . sam : well , what did the police say ? elizabeth : there have been no reports of anyone matching his description , and obviously we have n't been able to release a photo because of his facial injuries . sam : of course . so , what now ? elizabeth : i have no idea how long he 's gon na be unconscious . maybe once his bandages can be removed , he 'll be recognizable , and then we can release a photo . sam : i mean , do you think he 's gon na wake up ? elizabeth : i hope so . then maybe he can have some company other than strangers . sam : you know , there must be someone out there who loves and misses him . sabrina : who do you think caused the accident that killed our baby ? patrick : sabrina , i just -- i do n't think i should tell you right now . sabrina : patrick , if you think that i ca n't handle it , do n't . i promise i 'm not gon na fall apart . patrick : it 's not that . i just , you know , this is a new thing for sam and i , and i do n't want to start pointing fingers and blaming somebody if they did n't have anything to do with the accident . sabrina : patrick , i was gabriel 's mother . if you have a lead , even if it 's a random , crazy theory , i have the right to know about it . patrick : okay . i can respect that . sabrina : thank you . so , who do you think did it ? patrick : luke spencer . sabrina : luke spencer ? that 's impossible . dante : you really do n't want to make the trip to amsterdam ? i mean , your dad 's gon na be blindsided . tracy 's already a mess . you do n't want to be there for that ? lulu : i want to be there when my dad proves to everyone that he did n't do all those hateful things , that he 's not this person that you and everybody suspect he is . dante : all i care about is uncovering the truth , and hopefully in the process , we exonerate your dad . lulu : i know . i know . and i want to be there when he clears his name , but i had the night to think about it , and i just remember what it was like when my dad would take off for whatever reason and i was left with my grandmother . and i loved her . she was wonderful . but i always felt left behind . i do n't want to do that to rocco . i want to be here for him . like , last night -- last night , he was really fussy . dante : yeah , i know . i heard him a couple times . i got up to check on him , but of course you already beat me to it . lulu : i was happy to be here to comfort him when he was crying . i do n't want to miss that . i do n't want to choose my father over my little boy . i hate the fact that i even have to choose , but we almost died at that clinic . i was terrified that i was never gon na see rocco again . dante : so was i . lulu : we lost all that time with him when he was a baby , and i just do n't want to miss another second . dante : i know . look , i do n't blame you , okay ? lulu : there 's another thing , okay ? we made the choice to devote ourself to rocco instead of adding another baby to our family , so i ca n't just hand rocco over to your mother and go off on some adventure . i 'm sorry , dante . i just ... i ca n't go with you . michael : did you two plan this , an assault from both sides ? carly : no , i came over to see how you were . i had no idea that your father wanted to do this , but i 'm glad . michael : mom , i have a life here ! sonny : you can pick up your life where you left off as soon as the threat 's handled . michael : i understand that you 're concerned , but you have to understand my position here . i run elq . i took on that responsibility . carly : ned can take over for however long it takes ! michael : yeah , maybe so , but the main reason i 'm running elq is because of aj , to do something he never had the chance to do , okay ? and i ca n't just walk away whenever i feel like it . carly : you 're a target , michael ! you have to let your father protect you , and that means going away until it 's safe . michael : i have plenty of guards . carly : what if these people get past the guards ? michael , you killed a man in self - defense , and we ca n't report it because of the trouble with claudia . michael : you mean my manslaughter conviction . carly : yeah . that 's exactly what i mean . you have to go away until it 's safe ! sonny : there is a satellite link on the island . you can work remotely . michael : okay . yeah . what about my -- my relationship with kiki ? i ca n't have a relationship remotely . sonny : you can take her with you . carly : your dad 's thought of everything . michael : you two are double - teaming me here . carly : yeah , we are . i know . but if it keeps you safe , we do n't care . sonny : so , what 's it gon na be , mike ? are you gon na do this for me and your mother ? you gon na give us some peace of mind here ? morgan : my brother killed someone last night ? is he okay ? kiki : he 's actually a little too okay , if you ask me . his -- his place is flooded with your dad 's guards . morgan : kiki , he 's been to prison for manslaughter once already for -- for self - defense . he was -- he was defending our mom and josslyn , but -- but the police are not gon na accept the same excuse twice . kiki : oh , i know , and that 's what i said , but he keeps saying that your father has it handled and that it 's all going to go away . morgan : this is insane . kiki : you know what 's a little more insane ? your new gal pal rosalie , she was there when it went down . nathan : i thought you decided to give me a shot . maxie : i did . and -- and then i , uh , went to the brownstone to apologize for that terrible sit - in that levi aka peter staged . nathan : got handcuffed together . maxie : yeah . anyway , i was talking to morgan . nathan : what was so bad about that ? we got forced to walk home through the park and we caught the fireworks on the way . maxie : we were n't forced to do anything . you forced me to because you were too embarrassed to go to the police station and get a new set of keys . so , technically , it 's like you kidnapped me , too . only you did it on a holiday on accident . nathan : i told you your eyes were beautiful . maxie : i vaguely remember that . very clearly . a little . nathan : [ chuckles ] so , what about the next morning when we woke up together ? that was n't so terrible , right ? maxie : well , my wrists did n't like it , but , yes , i think about that night all the time . and i think about all the other really nice things you 've done for me , like offered to perjure yourself so i could get custody of my daughter . that 's very sweet . nathan : okay , so what 's the problem ? maxie : i ... can not just jump right into something again . new year 's eve , i was supposed to leave on a soul - searching trip . i ended up making one of the biggest mistakes of my life . i was supposed to be alone so i could reflect . i ended up hooking up with levi . nathan : but i am not levi . i 'm not some guy you just met . you know me . maxie : no , nathan . i - i do n't know you at all . nathan : how can you say you do n't know me ? we lived together in your apartment for months . maxie : that does n't mean that i know you . i mean , i thought i knew who levi dunkleman was , but he did n't turn out to be some spiritual meditative altruistic guy . he turned out to be a homicidal maniac named peter harrell . nathan : yeah , but i 'm -- i 'm none of those things . i 'm not even all that -- that spiritual or -- or meditative or altruistic . maxie : hello , you 're , like , the most altruistic guy i 've ever laid my eyes on . you do so many nice things for me , and i refuse to believe that you have some sort of ulterior motive . nathan : i do n't . maxie : ha ! then how can you say you 're not altruistic ? nathan : okay . maybe i 'm a little altruistic when it comes to you . is that such a bad thing ? maxie : well , what about everything else ? nathan : what everything else ? maxie : nathan west is not just some cop who decided to move to port charles like i thought . you moved here because you thought dr. clay put your sister in a coma . i mean , your name 's not even nathan west . it 's james reeves . a - and yes , nina 's your sister , but you 're adopted , which makes britt your sister , too . and you got hammered and almost hooked up with her . that 's at least what i saw . nathan : okay , i did n't know she was my sister at the time , and these are all true things , and they 're all things that you already know about me . maxie : yes , but i do n't know , like , the little , tiny details that make you who you are . like , what was it like growing up in manhattan ? what 's your favorite color ? i would guess cerulean blue , but that 's just an educated guess . nathan : i like blue . i did n't know that i had it narrowed down to the cerulean part . maxie : no , you are missing the point . how can you say that i know who you are when your mother 's not your mother and your father 's turned out to be a cassadine ? you do n't even know yourself . nathan : all right , maxie , look , maybe you 're right . maybe i do n't know the truth about my parents , but i know myself , okay ? and if you 'll go out with me , i 'll tell you everything there is to know about me . morgan : rosalie 's not my new gal pal , especially after she told her boss , nina clay , that my parents were hooking up behind franco 's back . kiki : she 's a real crusader for the truth , is n't she ? morgan : what the hell was she doing at michael 's again in the first place ? kiki : oh , uh , supposedly she came to apologize for the other day when she told michael that we were hiding something from him . morgan : oh , that 's great . what 'd she tell him this time ? kiki : do n't worry . michael still thinks that the only secret we 're keeping from him is the big anniversary surprise that rosalie ruined . morgan : okay , so he still does n't know anything ? kiki : no , morgan . he still does n't know that sonny killed his father or that his mother knows about it or that she has been hiding it from him . fortunately , he still has no idea about that . morgan : which is a hell of a lot worse than anything else he could find out about . michael : you know , i think i liked it better when you two were fighting . you both together like this is a force of nature . [ sighs ] carly : we both love you , and we refuse to let you risk your life . sonny : listen to your mom . michael : you know , when i was a kid , i had to listen to everything that you said . okay , but now i 'm an adult , and ... i 'm setting boundaries . carly : michael . we tried reasoning with him , okay ? now we use force ! we make him go ! michael : mom , relax . relax , okay ? look ... i may not have to do everything that my parents tell me to do , but i do realize that an attempted hit is a serious matter and it should be addressed . and besides , i do n't want you two to worry more than you have to . i love you both too much for that . lulu : i understand that anna made you lead detective on this case and that you have to go to amsterdam to investigate my father . it 's your job . dante : it is . and , uh , i already cleared the trip with anna . lulu : you should start packing . dante : you do n't actually think i want to leave this little guy again , do you ? lulu : no , of course not . dante : and i sure as hell do n't want to leave you . and every second that you were gone , i did n't think you were coming back to me . and then we wake up in that clinic , and i do n't think that ... the three of us are ever gon na be together again . lulu : you hid it well . dante : well , i 'm a very brave and daring man . lulu : [ chuckles ] dante : actually , the truth is , i thought i was gon na collapse from happiness when i realized we were gon na be together again . lulu : i - i did see that . [ chuckles ] dante : i do n't ever want to leave you and rocco ever again . i love you both too much . but i also do n't want to let you down . lulu : what are you saying ? dante : i 'm saying -- or i 'm asking you ... would you be disappointed if i did n't go with tracy and patrick and sam ? sabrina : why would you think luke spencer 's behind what happened ? patrick : supposedly he came right out and admitted it . sabrina : he confessed ? to who ? patrick : spencer cassadine . spencer overheard luke saying something that luke wanted kept quiet , so luke threatened emma in order to shut spencer up . sabrina : that 's absurd . patrick : sabrina , we at least need to rule out the possibility that luke was n't involved . there 's -- there 's a chance that the reason we were run off the road had nothing to do with me or you or gabriel . this had to do with emma . sabrina : no , spencer is obviously lying . whoever did this to us was not after emma . they -- they were after our son . sam : whoever you are , i want you to know that elizabeth is going to take really good care of you . she 's actually the best there is here . i do n't know what it is about you , but i want to see you get better . [ alarm beeping ] sam : what is it ? elizabeth : his vitals are rising . sam : that 's good news , right ? elizabeth : yeah , but he 's under such heavy sedation , he should n't be manifesting all this activity . but he seems to be fighting to come out of it . sam : well , do you think he 's gon na wake up ? elizabeth : possibly . something 's bringing up his vitals , and that 's a good sign . patrick : i - i understand that you need to make sense of this , all right , and you want to find a reason why our son had to die , but as of right now , it does n't seem like it was about him . sabrina : and you know this because a 9-year - old boy said so ? patrick : if it was just spencer 's word , then that would be one thing , but we were able to uncover more information about luke . and if it checks out , then there 's a chance that luke was behind this accident . sabrina : well , five minutes ago , you did n't want to tell me who you thought it was because you had n't confirmed it yet , and now suddenly you 're trying to convince me that it was luke . and for all you know , this could just be another false lead just like the clinic was . patrick : right , you -- you were adamant that the clinic was a dead end . sabrina : and i was right , was n't it ? patrick : now you 're pretty sure that luke is a dead end , too . why is that ? sabrina : what do you mean , why ? have you been listening to yourself ? these are all just theories . you do n't have any proof -- patrick : okay , but do you have a theory ? do you have idea who caused the accident ? lulu : so , you 're not going to amsterdam ? you 're gon na stay here with rocco and me ? dante : is that okay ? lulu : oh , thank god ! oh , i do n't want to be away from you . after everything we went through , i just -- being apart so soon ... dante : we wo n't be . we wo n't be . we 'll stay right here . lulu : okay . wait , what about the investigation ? anna 's not gon na be happy if you 're not there . dante : i already talked to anna . she said there 's plenty for me to do here in port charles . i can build a file on your father , and if -- if -- he is working with the jeromes , the best way to find out is by sticking close to julian . lulu : julian jerome is a lying liar who lies . and i can not imagine that my father had anything to do with him . dante : well , then i will work to prove luke 's innocence , okay ? and i 'll keep an eye on what 's going on in amsterdam from over here , and i 'm sure sam will keep me apprised every step of the way . elizabeth : i need to go get his doctor , but if you want to stay here and talk to him , it seems to be doing a lot of good . sam : listen , i would , but i have to go . patrick must be thinking that danny and i went missing . elizabeth : right . patrick . yeah . about him . real quick -- he told me that you guys have been spending some time together ? sam : i mean , we 're working together , but it 's pretty much the story . elizabeth : well , it 's just my opinion , but i think he would like there to be more to the story . [ alarm blares ] sam : what was that ? elizabeth : it 's just an alarm , but i got to go get his doctor . bye , danny . sam : hey , buddy , do you want to say goodbye to the guy ? yeah ? say bye - bye . danny : bye . sam : see you later . danny : later . sam : feel better . danny : feel better . sam : okay . let 's go . nathan : okay , so maybe you 're right . maybe i do n't know the truth about my biological parents . but i know me , and i want to tell you everything there is to know about me , the -- the trivial stuff , the important stuff , and i want to ask you things , too . maxie : oh , well , i 've done a lot of bad things , but it 's all a matter of public record , as you know . nathan : no , maxie , i want to know you , not your rap sheet . so far , i 've learned that you 're funny and you 're beautiful and you 're kind and you 're loyal even when people do n't deserve it . and when you make a mistake , you make a really big mistake . maxie : i thought we covered that already . nathan : because you want to help people . and i know you 've been jerked about , and i know you 've been through a lot of loss . but i want us to learn everything about each other , and in order to do that , we have to spend time together . maxie : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry , nathan . i just -- i need to be alone right now . nathan : okay . i - i understand that . but i have a proposition for you . sonny : all packed ? michael : yeah , anything else i need i can get on the island . does enrique know i 'm coming ? sonny : everything 's arranged . we just , you know , just for a couple days till we clear things up . think of this as like a , uh , a mini vacation . michael : oh . well , maybe kiki will like seeing the place where i spent half my childhood . sonny : car 's gon na be waiting downstairs . you can pick up kiki on the way . your mom and i are gon na make sure we close up the place . michael : you really did think of everything , did n't you ? carly : you know how protective your father is of his family . michael : yeah . carly : thank you . thank you so much for doing this . michael : love you , mom . carly : [ sighs ] i love you so much . kiki : i ca n't explain to you how much i hate keeping this from him . morgan : kiki , we have to . he 's been through enough . kiki : maybe he could handle it . morgan , he just killed someone last night , and he 's -- he 's handling that perfectly well . morgan : you do n't get it . the reason why he can handle all the crap he 's been through is because of the trust that he has for our parents . kiki : this is n't just about your mom and your dad , okay ? this is about me and michael . i know that it was my idea to keep from michael that carly and sonny slept together , and maybe that was wrong of me . but we 're also not telling him that my mom is staying here in this building that he owns , but -- but this , to not tell him what your father did to aj , this is the biggest thing that we have kept from michael . morgan : which is why we are keeping it from him , kiki . kiki : every time i see michael , i 'm lying to him , morgan ! it took everything in me not to tell him that his father was n't worth defending . this is so wrong on every level . morgan : what are you saying ? you 're gon na tell mikey what our dad did ? carly : let us know as soon as you get there , okay ? you call me the second you get there . michael : all right . carly : i love you . michael : love you , too . bye . sonny : thanks for backing me up . i could n't have done it without you . carly : thank you for making that happen . um , well , i 'm glad that we 're alone here , because there , uh ... there 's some -- something i need to say to you . morgan : kiki , i am sorry that this is so hard for you , okay ? and -- and maybe my dad deserves what 's coming to him if mikey finds out . kiki : [ scoffs ] and then some . he killed his father . morgan : but then what about my mom , okay ? it 's gon na destroy their relationship . and hell , i feel like i just got my brother back after everything . kiki : everything that happened with us ? morgan : i do n't want to lose that . telling -- telling him is not gon na bring aj back . punishing my father -- that 's not worth all the damage it 's gon na do to everyone else . kiki : i do n't know . morgan : please , kiki , you -- you have to understand how mikey can never find out . please . it will change everything . please tell me that you will not say anything to him . [ door opens ] michael : anyone home ? what 's wrong ? did i scare you ? morgan : no , no , no . we just , uh , were n't expecting you , that 's all . kiki : i thought you were going to the office . michael : yeah , i thought so , too , but , uh , my parents had other plans . sonny : i think what you want to say is that you broke it off with franco . you 're gon na call off the engagement , 'cause you know ... that we should be together . nathan : so , i was so excited about us tonight that i made a reservation at the metro court . and -- and i 'm gon na be there , okay ? and if you want to be alone , i understand that . but if you change your mind , you know where to find me . [ door closes ] patrick : you have n't said much about who you think is responsible for gabriel 's death . do you have a theory ? sam : hey , wait a minute . patrick , sabrina , hi . patrick : hey . sabrina : hey . patrick : hi , buddy . sam : hey , sabrina , you remember danny , do n't you ? sabrina : yeah . hi ! how 's it going ? patrick : how was it ? sabrina : how was the doctor 's appointment ? sam : great . um , i was thinking we should probably get danny home , because we got to go . patrick : yeah , i just -- i want you to know that i told , uh , sabrina about our suspicion , but she seems to have her own theory , actually . sam : okay . well , that 's -- that 's great . w - what is it ? sabrina : you know what ? i - i overreacted . i 'm sorry . you guys are doing such a great job . just let me know if you find out anything else about luke spencer . patrick : okay . sam : okay . patrick : bye . good seeing you . sam : bye . patrick : hey , how was your appointment ? dante : hey . come check this out . lulu : ohh ! look at that smile . dante : he is having one happy , happy dream . lulu : i know exactly how he feels . except i 'm awake . dante : ohh , that 's , like , worse than any . lulu : [ laughs ] dante : yes , we definitely made the right decision staying home . patrick : so , you were looking for me ? sam : yeah , epiphany sent me to the icu , but i just missed you . patrick : yeah . were you there the whole time ? sam : the whole time . danny wound up wandering into your john doe 's room . patrick : really ? sam : yeah . patrick : he looks pretty beat up . it did n't upset him , did he ? sam : uh , no , it was just the opposite . i had a hard time getting him to let go of him . patrick : hmm . [ monitor beeping ] elizabeth : are you gon na give him more sedatives to keep him under ? doctor : his levels are all good . nature seems to be taking its course . if it 's time for him to wake up , then let 's not stand in his way . elizabeth : he 's gon na be in a lot of pain . doctor : we 'll deal with that when the time comes . but for now , i think it 's best we just let him come around on his own . so keep me apprised of his progress , okay ? elizabeth : i will . did you hear that ? you 're gon na wake up soon . then maybe we can finally find out who you really are . [ next_on ] patrick : ( to sam ) it 's just a matter of time before i 'm officially divorced . maxie : ( to lulu ) so you 're saying i should go out with nathan ? dante : ( to nathan ) why are you in such a rush here ? what are you running away from ? sonny : ( to carly ) we 're stronger together than we are apart . todd : ( to nina ) i 'm about to hear exactly how carly feels about sonny . | maxie tells nathan that she ca n't stop thinking about him , but she ca n't go out with him because she does n't want to jump into something so soon and she does n't know him well enough . he says he can tell her whatever she wants to know when they go out . he says that if she changes her mind , she can find him at the metro court restaurant that evening . | <s>[INST] sam : hey , elizabeth . have you seen patrick ? elizabeth : you just missed him . he left maybe two minutes ago . sam : oh , he did ? elizabeth : yeah . sam : danny . danny , wait . [ monitor beeping ] michael : hey , uh , tell dawn to hold off on buying those shares of roth enterprises until i have a chance to take a closer look at it . okay , thanks . i 'll see you soon . [ door opens ] sonny : thanks . keep up the good work . sure thing , boss . michael : hey , dad . what 's up ? sonny : how you doing today ? michael : i 'm fine . sonny : you sure ? michael : yeah . thanks for the concern and everything , but i really got to go get to work . sonny : no , you do n't . kiki : morgan , you home ? it 's just me . hey . is , uh , anyone else here ? morgan : no , just your mom . i just delivered breakfast . kiki : how is she ? is she okay ? morgan : yeah , she 's fine . she 's just staying out of sight in case we get any unwanted visitors . kiki : okay . great . is n't it a little late for breakfast ? morgan : uh , well , the first plate i made got devoured , so ... kiki : by my mom ? morgan : no . by maxie jones . nathan : so ... do n't leave me hanging . what 's , uh , what 's the verdict ? you gon na go out with me tonight or not ? dante : that was tracy checking in . she 's getting ready to head off to amsterdam to meet up with your father . and i got a text from patrick confirming that he and sam are gon na be there when the whole thing goes down . sabrina : patrick ! hey . patrick : hi . sabrina : you 're here . patrick : hey . how are you ? sabrina : good . does this mean there 's good news ? are you finally back on staff ? patrick : no , no . unfortunately , my appeal is moving at glacial speed . sabrina : oh . sorry to hear that . i 'm sure it 's all gon na work out . patrick : i hope so . i 'm actually just here helping out sam . just on my way to try and find her , actually . [ monitor beeping ] sam : danny . danny , what are you doing ? danny : [ laughs ] sam : hey . come on , kiddo . you got to let go of this man 's hand , because he 's -- he 's actually sleeping . he 's taking a nap . he 's trying to get some rest . you know when you take a nap and you feel better when you wake up ? that 's what he 's doing . danny : he got an owie . sam : i know . he has an owie , so come on . let 's go . danny : no . sam : honey . danny : [ mumbles ] sam : no , i 'm not playing around . we have to go . danny : no ! sam : hey . okay , big guy . what 's the story ? why wo n't you let this man 's hand go ? sabrina : sam all right ? patrick : yeah , no , she 's -- she 's fine . she just had to bring danny in for a checkup , and he 's kind of at that age where he 's a little hard to wrangle , so i 'm just giving her a hand . i think she 's in icu right now . sabrina : wait . they moved danny to the icu ? did dr. clay find out that he -- patrick : no , no , danny 's -- danny 's fine . sabrina : oh ! patrick : i was in icu . sam was there looking for me . i was actually helping out elizabeth with a patient . because obrecht 's not here , i kind of snuck in to give her a hand . sabrina : hmm . which patient ? patrick : john doe . sabrina : oh , the guy from the accident . yeah , no , i was here the day that he was brought in . he was in really bad shape . patrick : yeah . sabrina : were you able to help ? patrick : well , not really . he 's still unconscious , and since i 'm still the , uh , physician non grata , i was only able to look at his scans . sabrina : how 'd they look ? patrick : hard to tell as of right now . um , his cerebral edema has gone down considerably , but whether he 's able to wake up with full brain function is anybody 's guess . i did see something a little bit interesting on his scans , though . it turns out that this is n't john doe 's first rodeo . he 's had brain surgery before . dante : look , patrick has to find out if your father 's responsible for that accident . it 's my job to investigate this whole thing . the best way for all of these to happen is for us to be at this meeting tracy set up . lulu : yeah . i understand what 's driving patrick . he lost a child . we had a taste of that sorrow when we had to give up our baby girl . and it 's like the worst pain in the world . dante : yeah , it is . lulu : someone told rafe to drive patrick 's car off the road to deliberately hurt him and his family . i 've been thinking about it constantly , and it 's impossible for me to believe that that person was my father . it does n't make any sense . neither does the idea that my dad is somehow plotting against yours ? sonny : someone tried to kill you , michael , and you wound up killing him . you think that 's easy to go through ? michael : it 's been handled . and we all agreed that it never happened , so life -- life goes on . sonny : you do n't think they 're not gon na try again ? that 's exactly why i 've decided to send you away . kiki : maxie was here ? please tell me she did n't find my mom . morgan : no , no , i do n't think she would have scarfed the food down if she knew it was for a pregnant woman . she thought it was for you . kiki : all right , well , then what was she doing here ? was she protesting the wainscoting and the light fixtures ? morgan : no , actually , she was here to apologize for doing that to us . kiki : surprising and extremely random . morgan : yeah , well , it gets better . after she was done apologizing , i somehow ended up giving maxie relationship advice . maxie : okay , here it goes . nathan . nathan : maxie . maxie : i 've been thinking about you nonstop since we got back . i think about you when i 'm sitting in my bedroom at my mom and mac 's house . mostly i think about the little things , like how great the shower smells after you 've used your wonderful soap or the fact that you always offer to make me some of your special coffee after you 've made some for yourself in the morning or -- or that playlist of really great music that -- that you blast when you 're working out , which seems to be all the time -- not that i mind , because i do n't know that music , and i really like it . nathan : and i will tell you about all this stuff , the coffee and the music and the soap , tonight at dinner . maxie : that 's just it , nathan . [ clears throat ] i can not go out with you tonight . nathan : we can reschedule . i 'm flexible . maxie : no , i do n't have anything else to do . it 's ... nathan : look , you 're probably still recovering from everything that you just went through , okay ? like , i know i 'm not even 100 % , and levi and his band of psychos had you a lot longer than they had me . you got to be physically and emotionally drained . so , we can wait a few days . maxie : no , nathan , that 's not it , either . nathan : well , what is it ? maxie : i 'm sorry . i ca n't go out with you at all . morgan : i tried to tell maxie that i was n't the right person to be giving relationship advice , but then she promised to stop talking and leave if i told her what to do , so i just jumped at the chance of that . kiki : so , you told her what ? morgan : i just told her to trust her heart . kiki : [ chuckles ] uh , nice , but completely noncommittal . whatever . morgan : yeah , i mean , i think i just confused her more . but anyway , the upside of the whole thing is that she extends her apology to you and michael . which how -- how did things go with michael this morning ? kiki : yeah , about that . um ... morgan : look , i - i know i 'm putting you in a tough position , asking you not to tell him that our dad killed aj , but i promise you that this is the best way . kiki : keeping secrets from michael almost became a moot point last night . morgan : what do you mean ? kiki : someone tried to kill him . sonny : do n't be naive . you 've lived at my house . you know how it works . one hitman does n't finish the job , you get another one . michael : dad , i trust you to handle it , okay , but i really got to get to work . sonny : you 're not -- you 're not brushing me off here . i need you someplace safe so i can figure out who targeted you , and i can eliminate the threat . michael : dad , you 're worried about me . you 're concerned about me , and you have every right to be . but you have the national guard of the underworld outside my door , and you told me you have security all over elq . sonny : i do , but i do n't think it 's enough . i do n't want to take a chance with my son . you 're too important to me . michael : dad , i am not 10 anymore . i do n't need to be sent away to keep me safe . sonny : i ca n't lose you , michael ! you understand ? carly : hey , what 's going on between you guys ? why are you arguing ? michael : dad is trying to force me into hiding . can you please tell him he 's overreacting ? carly : i ca n't do that , michael . i agree with your father . lulu : i am the first one to admit that my father is far from perfect . he was m.i.a . for large chunks of my life , but whenever it mattered , he was there . and i knew deep down that he really loved me . dante : of course he loves you . lulu : whenever things would get really tough , he would just , like , magically appear . when i decided to have an abortion and the quartermaines took legal action to force me to keep the baby , my dad was there . he was there , and he was making everything right . when jerry jacks held a bunch of us hostage at the metro court , my dad saved the day . my dad has saved my life i do n't even know how many times . dante : i know he has . lulu : and now because of something that a kid said and -- and a bunch of coincidences , i am supposed to believe that my dad intentionally hurt patrick 's daughter , that my dad is dealing cocaine and heroin to kids ? i 'm sorry . no . no , this person that -- that everyone is talking about , this is not the person that i know and love . this man is not my father . dante : okay , we 're not sure of anything yet , but even you have to admit since your father came out of miscavige , he -- he has not been himself . lulu : it does n't mean that he has turned into a monster . dante : no , no , i 'm not saying he -- he is a monster . but i 'm saying we have to find out exactly what is going on , and the best way to do that is for us to go to amsterdam . lulu : yeah , except ... i 'm not going . patrick : hey , um , i 'm sorry to cut this short , but i need to go find sam . sabrina : you two still working together ? patrick : yeah , yeah , we are . sabrina : well , before you go , have you found out anything else about the accident that killed gabriel ? patrick : well , a little bit . we -- we think we might have a new lead . sabrina : this is n't about the crichton - clark clinic again , is it ? patrick : no , no , i 'm putting that place behind me . over and done with . no , the person we 're investigating has nothing to do with that place or anyone in it . sabrina : all right , then . who do you think did it ? sam : i do n't get this . daniel edward morgan , why are you doing this ? why wo n't you let go of this guy 's hand ? elizabeth : sam , is everything okay ? sam : i do n't understand . danny will not let go of this guy 's hand . i keep -- i 'm afraid if i yell at him , he 's gon na throw a tantrum . elizabeth : i have something that might work . sam : you do ? elizabeth : hey , danny . kiddo , look what i have . look at this . [ gasps ] sam : do you want a lollipop ? elizabeth : you want it ? you can have it as long as you sit down over here . come here . we 'll sit you on this stool . you hold it . and i 'll put you here . there you go . good job . sam : way to go . elizabeth : i have a lot of experience with stubborn little boys . sam : yeah . elizabeth : when all else fails , you bribe them . sam : clearly it works . elizabeth : so , that was funny he was hanging on to this patient right now . what was that all about ? sam : yeah , it was so strange . he -- he would not let go of this guy 's hand . it was just so weird . elizabeth : then i must be a little weird , too . i 'm not even supposed to be here right now . but for some reason , i just ... i do n't know . i feel the need to stick close to this one . sam : i mean , clearly you do care about your patients . elizabeth : it 's more than that . i have patients day in and day out , but i do n't feel the need to care for them like this . there 's something different about this guy . sam : so , what do you think it is that 's making you feel such a strong connection to him ? do you know who he is ? elizabeth : that 's the thing . no one knows . he was hit by a car , and i happened to be here when he was brought in . he was semi - conscious for a bit , but he could n't answer any questions . he does n't have any i.d . on him , and now -- now he 's a john doe . sam : well , someone 's got to miss him . elizabeth : you would think , but no one seems to be looking for him . sam : well , what did the police say ? elizabeth : there have been no reports of anyone matching his description , and obviously we have n't been able to release a photo because of his facial injuries . sam : of course . so , what now ? elizabeth : i have no idea how long he 's gon na be unconscious . maybe once his bandages can be removed , he 'll be recognizable , and then we can release a photo . sam : i mean , do you think he 's gon na wake up ? elizabeth : i hope so . then maybe he can have some company other than strangers . sam : you know , there must be someone out there who loves and misses him . sabrina : who do you think caused the accident that killed our baby ? patrick : sabrina , i just -- i do n't think i should tell you right now . sabrina : patrick , if you think that i ca n't handle it , do n't . i promise i 'm not gon na fall apart . patrick : it 's not that . i just , you know , this is a new thing for sam and i , and i do n't want to start pointing fingers and blaming somebody if they did n't have anything to do with the accident . sabrina : patrick , i was gabriel 's mother . if you have a lead , even if it 's a random , crazy theory , i have the right to know about it . patrick : okay . i can respect that . sabrina : thank you . so , who do you think did it ? patrick : luke spencer . sabrina : luke spencer ? that 's impossible . dante : you really do n't want to make the trip to amsterdam ? i mean , your dad 's gon na be blindsided . tracy 's already a mess . you do n't want to be there for that ? lulu : i want to be there when my dad proves to everyone that he did n't do all those hateful things , that he 's not this person that you and everybody suspect he is . dante : all i care about is uncovering the truth , and hopefully in the process , we exonerate your dad . lulu : i know . i know . and i want to be there when he clears his name , but i had the night to think about it , and i just remember what it was like when my dad would take off for whatever reason and i was left with my grandmother . and i loved her . she was wonderful . but i always felt left behind . i do n't want to do that to rocco . i want to be here for him . like , last night -- last night , he was really fussy . dante : yeah , i know . i heard him a couple times . i got up to check on him , but of course you already beat me to it . lulu : i was happy to be here to comfort him when he was crying . i do n't want to miss that . i do n't want to choose my father over my little boy . i hate the fact that i even have to choose , but we almost died at that clinic . i was terrified that i was never gon na see rocco again . dante : so was i . lulu : we lost all that time with him when he was a baby , and i just do n't want to miss another second . dante : i know . look , i do n't blame you , okay ? lulu : there 's another thing , okay ? we made the choice to devote ourself to rocco instead of adding another baby to our family , so i ca n't just hand rocco over to your mother and go off on some adventure . i 'm sorry , dante . i just ... i ca n't go with you . michael : did you two plan this , an assault from both sides ? carly : no , i came over to see how you were . i had no idea that your father wanted to do this , but i 'm glad . michael : mom , i have a life here ! sonny : you can pick up your life where you left off as soon as the threat 's handled . michael : i understand that you 're concerned , but you have to understand my position here . i run elq . i took on that responsibility . carly : ned can take over for however long it takes ! michael : yeah , maybe so , but the main reason i 'm running elq is because of aj , to do something he never had the chance to do , okay ? and i ca n't just walk away whenever i feel like it . carly : you 're a target , michael ! you have to let your father protect you , and that means going away until it 's safe . michael : i have plenty of guards . carly : what if these people get past the guards ? michael , you killed a man in self - defense , and we ca n't report it because of the trouble with claudia . michael : you mean my manslaughter conviction . carly : yeah . that 's exactly what i mean . you have to go away until it 's safe ! sonny : there is a satellite link on the island . you can work remotely . michael : okay . yeah . what about my -- my relationship with kiki ? i ca n't have a relationship remotely . sonny : you can take her with you . carly : your dad 's thought of everything . michael : you two are double - teaming me here . carly : yeah , we are . i know . but if it keeps you safe , we do n't care . sonny : so , what 's it gon na be , mike ? are you gon na do this for me and your mother ? you gon na give us some peace of mind here ? morgan : my brother killed someone last night ? is he okay ? kiki : he 's actually a little too okay , if you ask me . his -- his place is flooded with your dad 's guards . morgan : kiki , he 's been to prison for manslaughter once already for -- for self - defense . he was -- he was defending our mom and josslyn , but -- but the police are not gon na accept the same excuse twice . kiki : oh , i know , and that 's what i said , but he keeps saying that your father has it handled and that it 's all going to go away . morgan : this is insane . kiki : you know what 's a little more insane ? your new gal pal rosalie , she was there when it went down . nathan : i thought you decided to give me a shot . maxie : i did . and -- and then i , uh , went to the brownstone to apologize for that terrible sit - in that levi aka peter staged . nathan : got handcuffed together . maxie : yeah . anyway , i was talking to morgan . nathan : what was so bad about that ? we got forced to walk home through the park and we caught the fireworks on the way . maxie : we were n't forced to do anything . you forced me to because you were too embarrassed to go to the police station and get a new set of keys . so , technically , it 's like you kidnapped me , too . only you did it on a holiday on accident . nathan : i told you your eyes were beautiful . maxie : i vaguely remember that . very clearly . a little . nathan : [ chuckles ] so , what about the next morning when we woke up together ? that was n't so terrible , right ? maxie : well , my wrists did n't like it , but , yes , i think about that night all the time . and i think about all the other really nice things you 've done for me , like offered to perjure yourself so i could get custody of my daughter . that 's very sweet . nathan : okay , so what 's the problem ? maxie : i ... can not just jump right into something again . new year 's eve , i was supposed to leave on a soul - searching trip . i ended up making one of the biggest mistakes of my life . i was supposed to be alone so i could reflect . i ended up hooking up with levi . nathan : but i am not levi . i 'm not some guy you just met . you know me . maxie : no , nathan . i - i do n't know you at all . nathan : how can you say you do n't know me ? we lived together in your apartment for months . maxie : that does n't mean that i know you . i mean , i thought i knew who levi dunkleman was , but he did n't turn out to be some spiritual meditative altruistic guy . he turned out to be a homicidal maniac named peter harrell . nathan : yeah , but i 'm -- i 'm none of those things . i 'm not even all that -- that spiritual or -- or meditative or altruistic . maxie : hello , you 're , like , the most altruistic guy i 've ever laid my eyes on . you do so many nice things for me , and i refuse to believe that you have some sort of ulterior motive . nathan : i do n't . maxie : ha ! then how can you say you 're not altruistic ? nathan : okay . maybe i 'm a little altruistic when it comes to you . is that such a bad thing ? maxie : well , what about everything else ? nathan : what everything else ? maxie : nathan west is not just some cop who decided to move to port charles like i thought . you moved here because you thought dr. clay put your sister in a coma . i mean , your name 's not even nathan west . it 's james reeves . a - and yes , nina 's your sister , but you 're adopted , which makes britt your sister , too . and you got hammered and almost hooked up with her . that 's at least what i saw . nathan : okay , i did n't know she was my sister at the time , and these are all true things , and they 're all things that you already know about me . maxie : yes , but i do n't know , like , the little , tiny details that make you who you are . like , what was it like growing up in manhattan ? what 's your favorite color ? i would guess cerulean blue , but that 's just an educated guess . nathan : i like blue . i did n't know that i had it narrowed down to the cerulean part . maxie : no , you are missing the point . how can you say that i know who you are when your mother 's not your mother and your father 's turned out to be a cassadine ? you do n't even know yourself . nathan : all right , maxie , look , maybe you 're right . maybe i do n't know the truth about my parents , but i know myself , okay ? and if you 'll go out with me , i 'll tell you everything there is to know about me . morgan : rosalie 's not my new gal pal , especially after she told her boss , nina clay , that my parents were hooking up behind franco 's back . kiki : she 's a real crusader for the truth , is n't she ? morgan : what the hell was she doing at michael 's again in the first place ? kiki : oh , uh , supposedly she came to apologize for the other day when she told michael that we were hiding something from him . morgan : oh , that 's great . what 'd she tell him this time ? kiki : do n't worry . michael still thinks that the only secret we 're keeping from him is the big anniversary surprise that rosalie ruined . morgan : okay , so he still does n't know anything ? kiki : no , morgan . he still does n't know that sonny killed his father or that his mother knows about it or that she has been hiding it from him . fortunately , he still has no idea about that . morgan : which is a hell of a lot worse than anything else he could find out about . michael : you know , i think i liked it better when you two were fighting . you both together like this is a force of nature . [ sighs ] carly : we both love you , and we refuse to let you risk your life . sonny : listen to your mom . michael : you know , when i was a kid , i had to listen to everything that you said . okay , but now i 'm an adult , and ... i 'm setting boundaries . carly : michael . we tried reasoning with him , okay ? now we use force ! we make him go ! michael : mom , relax . relax , okay ? look ... i may not have to do everything that my parents tell me to do , but i do realize that an attempted hit is a serious matter and it should be addressed . and besides , i do n't want you two to worry more than you have to . i love you both too much for that . lulu : i understand that anna made you lead detective on this case and that you have to go to amsterdam to investigate my father . it 's your job . dante : it is . and , uh , i already cleared the trip with anna . lulu : you should start packing . dante : you do n't actually think i want to leave this little guy again , do you ? lulu : no , of course not . dante : and i sure as hell do n't want to leave you . and every second that you were gone , i did n't think you were coming back to me . and then we wake up in that clinic , and i do n't think that ... the three of us are ever gon na be together again . lulu : you hid it well . dante : well , i 'm a very brave and daring man . lulu : [ chuckles ] dante : actually , the truth is , i thought i was gon na collapse from happiness when i realized we were gon na be together again . lulu : i - i did see that . [ chuckles ] dante : i do n't ever want to leave you and rocco ever again . i love you both too much . but i also do n't want to let you down . lulu : what are you saying ? dante : i 'm saying -- or i 'm asking you ... would you be disappointed if i did n't go with tracy and patrick and sam ? sabrina : why would you think luke spencer 's behind what happened ? patrick : supposedly he came right out and admitted it . sabrina : he confessed ? to who ? patrick : spencer cassadine . spencer overheard luke saying something that luke wanted kept quiet , so luke threatened emma in order to shut spencer up . sabrina : that 's absurd . patrick : sabrina , we at least need to rule out the possibility that luke was n't involved . there 's -- there 's a chance that the reason we were run off the road had nothing to do with me or you or gabriel . this had to do with emma . sabrina : no , spencer is obviously lying . whoever did this to us was not after emma . they -- they were after our son . sam : whoever you are , i want you to know that elizabeth is going to take really good care of you . she 's actually the best there is here . i do n't know what it is about you , but i want to see you get better . [ alarm beeping ] sam : what is it ? elizabeth : his vitals are rising . sam : that 's good news , right ? elizabeth : yeah , but he 's under such heavy sedation , he should n't be manifesting all this activity . but he seems to be fighting to come out of it . sam : well , do you think he 's gon na wake up ? elizabeth : possibly . something 's bringing up his vitals , and that 's a good sign . patrick : i - i understand that you need to make sense of this , all right , and you want to find a reason why our son had to die , but as of right now , it does n't seem like it was about him . sabrina : and you know this because a 9-year - old boy said so ? patrick : if it was just spencer 's word , then that would be one thing , but we were able to uncover more information about luke . and if it checks out , then there 's a chance that luke was behind this accident . sabrina : well , five minutes ago , you did n't want to tell me who you thought it was because you had n't confirmed it yet , and now suddenly you 're trying to convince me that it was luke . and for all you know , this could just be another false lead just like the clinic was . patrick : right , you -- you were adamant that the clinic was a dead end . sabrina : and i was right , was n't it ? patrick : now you 're pretty sure that luke is a dead end , too . why is that ? sabrina : what do you mean , why ? have you been listening to yourself ? these are all just theories . you do n't have any proof -- patrick : okay , but do you have a theory ? do you have idea who caused the accident ? lulu : so , you 're not going to amsterdam ? you 're gon na stay here with rocco and me ? dante : is that okay ? lulu : oh , thank god ! oh , i do n't want to be away from you . after everything we went through , i just -- being apart so soon ... dante : we wo n't be . we wo n't be . we 'll stay right here . lulu : okay . wait , what about the investigation ? anna 's not gon na be happy if you 're not there . dante : i already talked to anna . she said there 's plenty for me to do here in port charles . i can build a file on your father , and if -- if -- he is working with the jeromes , the best way to find out is by sticking close to julian . lulu : julian jerome is a lying liar who lies . and i can not imagine that my father had anything to do with him . dante : well , then i will work to prove luke 's innocence , okay ? and i 'll keep an eye on what 's going on in amsterdam from over here , and i 'm sure sam will keep me apprised every step of the way . elizabeth : i need to go get his doctor , but if you want to stay here and talk to him , it seems to be doing a lot of good . sam : listen , i would , but i have to go . patrick must be thinking that danny and i went missing . elizabeth : right . patrick . yeah . about him . real quick -- he told me that you guys have been spending some time together ? sam : i mean , we 're working together , but it 's pretty much the story . elizabeth : well , it 's just my opinion , but i think he would like there to be more to the story . [ alarm blares ] sam : what was that ? elizabeth : it 's just an alarm , but i got to go get his doctor . bye , danny . sam : hey , buddy , do you want to say goodbye to the guy ? yeah ? say bye - bye . danny : bye . sam : see you later . danny : later . sam : feel better . danny : feel better . sam : okay . let 's go . nathan : okay , so maybe you 're right . maybe i do n't know the truth about my biological parents . but i know me , and i want to tell you everything there is to know about me , the -- the trivial stuff , the important stuff , and i want to ask you things , too . maxie : oh , well , i 've done a lot of bad things , but it 's all a matter of public record , as you know . nathan : no , maxie , i want to know you , not your rap sheet . so far , i 've learned that you 're funny and you 're beautiful and you 're kind and you 're loyal even when people do n't deserve it . and when you make a mistake , you make a really big mistake . maxie : i thought we covered that already . nathan : because you want to help people . and i know you 've been jerked about , and i know you 've been through a lot of loss . but i want us to learn everything about each other , and in order to do that , we have to spend time together . maxie : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry , nathan . i just -- i need to be alone right now . nathan : okay . i - i understand that . but i have a proposition for you . sonny : all packed ? michael : yeah , anything else i need i can get on the island . does enrique know i 'm coming ? sonny : everything 's arranged . we just , you know , just for a couple days till we clear things up . think of this as like a , uh , a mini vacation . michael : oh . well , maybe kiki will like seeing the place where i spent half my childhood . sonny : car 's gon na be waiting downstairs . you can pick up kiki on the way . your mom and i are gon na make sure we close up the place . michael : you really did think of everything , did n't you ? carly : you know how protective your father is of his family . michael : yeah . carly : thank you . thank you so much for doing this . michael : love you , mom . carly : [ sighs ] i love you so much . kiki : i ca n't explain to you how much i hate keeping this from him . morgan : kiki , we have to . he 's been through enough . kiki : maybe he could handle it . morgan , he just killed someone last night , and he 's -- he 's handling that perfectly well . morgan : you do n't get it . the reason why he can handle all the crap he 's been through is because of the trust that he has for our parents . kiki : this is n't just about your mom and your dad , okay ? this is about me and michael . i know that it was my idea to keep from michael that carly and sonny slept together , and maybe that was wrong of me . but we 're also not telling him that my mom is staying here in this building that he owns , but -- but this , to not tell him what your father did to aj , this is the biggest thing that we have kept from michael . morgan : which is why we are keeping it from him , kiki . kiki : every time i see michael , i 'm lying to him , morgan ! it took everything in me not to tell him that his father was n't worth defending . this is so wrong on every level . morgan : what are you saying ? you 're gon na tell mikey what our dad did ? carly : let us know as soon as you get there , okay ? you call me the second you get there . michael : all right . carly : i love you . michael : love you , too . bye . sonny : thanks for backing me up . i could n't have done it without you . carly : thank you for making that happen . um , well , i 'm glad that we 're alone here , because there , uh ... there 's some -- something i need to say to you . morgan : kiki , i am sorry that this is so hard for you , okay ? and -- and maybe my dad deserves what 's coming to him if mikey finds out . kiki : [ scoffs ] and then some . he killed his father . morgan : but then what about my mom , okay ? it 's gon na destroy their relationship . and hell , i feel like i just got my brother back after everything . kiki : everything that happened with us ? morgan : i do n't want to lose that . telling -- telling him is not gon na bring aj back . punishing my father -- that 's not worth all the damage it 's gon na do to everyone else . kiki : i do n't know . morgan : please , kiki , you -- you have to understand how mikey can never find out . please . it will change everything . please tell me that you will not say anything to him . [ door opens ] michael : anyone home ? what 's wrong ? did i scare you ? morgan : no , no , no . we just , uh , were n't expecting you , that 's all . kiki : i thought you were going to the office . michael : yeah , i thought so , too , but , uh , my parents had other plans . sonny : i think what you want to say is that you broke it off with franco . you 're gon na call off the engagement , 'cause you know ... that we should be together . nathan : so , i was so excited about us tonight that i made a reservation at the metro court . and -- and i 'm gon na be there , okay ? and if you want to be alone , i understand that . but if you change your mind , you know where to find me .

[ scene_break ] dorian : saying you are sorry is not going to bring starr 's baby back . joplin : no , it 's not . and i take full responsibility for your loss . you all deserve to know exactly how this tragedy came to happen . joplin : the coroner 's report indicates that hope died of rh disease . dorian : rh ? how is that possible ? rh is detectable and treatable . joplin : you 're absolutely right . it is . but i made a wrong assumption and starr 's baby paid the price . dorian : a wrong assumption ? what kind of explanation is that ? michael : dr. joplin , are you sure about that ? joplin : yes , i am . starr : what -- what is rh ? joplin : in some cases , a small amount of baby 's blood can escape the placenta and enter the mother 's circulation . if the mother is rh negative and the baby is rh positive , as was the case here , the mother 's body will produce antibodies to fight the antigens of the baby 's red blood cells . marcie : michael , what does that mean ? michael : it means that the mother 's blood does n't mix with the baby 's blood and in extreme circumstances causes death . joplin : it is an extremely , extremely rare occurrence . dorian : even a first year resident should be able to detect rh in a prenatal blood screening . why did n't you ? joplin : i just thought -- no . i do n't know what i was thinking .

( everyone talking ) tony : knock 'em dead . ross : oh , listen . comparatively speaking , it is so quiet in here . blake : that 's because most of your campaign workers are voting . they 're voting for the most wonderful man in springfield for mayor . oh , ross , this is such a big day . i really wish i had talked you into wearing that other tie , though . ross : someday i will be able to keep up with that mind of yours . blake : i 'm a woman , ross . we have the ability to juggle all these important ideas in our head at the same time . ross : well , maybe you should have run for mayor . blake : next time . come on , your honor . let 's hit the voting booth . christopher : reva , are you all right ? reva : ( gasping ) christopher : can you hear me , reva ? stay with us . reva : ( gasping ) christopher : reva ! josh : reva ! christopher : reva ! josh : what the hell is going on ? christopher : i do n't know . that 's never happened before . josh : reva ! reva ! reva ! she 's not breathing . christopher : keep her down here . josh : reva ! reva . reva . can you hear me ? ed : let 's go . christopher : she was under hypnosis . josh : reva , darling , are you there ? reva , come on . ed : her pulse is faint . how long was she under ? christopher : not long , but she went through some sort of trauma . i could n't pull her out . josh : reva , i 'm here . i 'm waiting for you . just come back to me now . is she okay ? ed : she 's got good breath sound . josh : is she all right , though ? ed ? ed : i think she 's coming to . josh : reva ? you 're back . where did you go ? reva : to hell . edmund : i 'm here to help . what can i do ? cassie : okay . well , maybe you could whip up a few crab puffs . and then when you 're finished with that , you can go in the ballroom and you can wire the tvs . and then if you 're really feeling ambitious , you can help me here at the hotel , because olivia ca n't be here , because thanks to me , i 'm the one that made her tell phillip that the baby was alive , and then lizzie found out and took the poor little thing , so it 's just ... ( grunts in frustration ) edmund : i think i 'll start with the tvs . cassie : no , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i 'm just feeling guilty and overwhelmed , and it 's a really bad combination . i 'm sorry . edmund : cassie , olivia 's baby is safe and sound , and danny 's party is going to be a success whether he wins or loses . everything is fine . cassie : oh , i just want him to win . you know , i really want him to win . i love ross -- i do , i do -- it 's just i think that danny will be so good for this town . edmund : i know . and he has a very good friend in you . so ... oh , look . hey , here comes your long lost business partner . i have some calls to make . get reacquainted . cassie : hi . olivia : hi . cassie : i am so happy that emma is okay . i mean , sam called and told me about it . olivia : thanks . i 'm sorry , cassie . i made it sound like all this was your fault . it wasn't . it wasn't . the fact is , lizzie would have found emma anyway . cassie : i 'm just so happy that everything turned out with a happy ending . ( laughs ) what are you doing here ? you do n't need to be here . olivia : i know this is a really bad time for you , but i have to talk . joey : guys , it was really cool of your folks to let us rehearse here . shayne : well , they technically do n't know that we are , because i could n't get a hold of them , but it 's no problem . marina : well , maybe they 're voting . sandy : all right , folks ! stop smacking , let 's get cracking . time to rehearse . tammy : okay . well , we could start , or we could wait for the coach that edmund arranged for us to have . lizzie : i do n't know why we need a coach at this point . sandy is the director , is n't he ? sandy : yes , i am . marina : and shayne and i can critique your work . nico : come on , guys . can we just keep this moving . joey and i , we got some plans to go jam with some of my boys down on fifth street , and i do n't want to be late . joey : well , if we 're running late , you could just leave without me . i do n't want to upset my juliet . sandy : okay , then . giddy up .

( laughter ) reva : my heart . josh : do n't try to talk , reva . reva : i feel like it 's been ripped out of my chest . ed : that 's because you stopped breathing . if that had gone on much longer , if josh had n't performed cpr , we could 've lost you . reva : i saw the most amazing things , joshua . josh : you said it was hell . reva : there 's so many things we did n't know about . josh : reva , this can wait . reva : no . josh : you need to rest . reva : no , it ca n't wait . this is exactly what we 've been waiting for . now we can make things right for marah , for you , for all of you . the night maryanne died ... i was there , and i know the truth about carrie and maryanne , all of it . ed : honey , rest now . you can tell us everything later . reva : no . could someone please find jeffrey o'neill ? josh : no , you heard what ed said . this can wait . reva : no . no , it ca n't wait . i 've got to say this while it 's still clear in my mind . please bring jeffrey here so i can tell him . jeffrey : what do you want to tell me , reva ? reva : maryanne ... maryanne caruthers survived the car that went off the bridge . jeffrey : are you sure ? reva : yeah . it was n't the crash that killed her , joshua . she survived that . it was n't you . it was n't your fault that she drowned . she did n't drown all those years ago . she did n't die because you gave up trying to save her . it was n't you . josh : then how ? reva : it was caroline . caroline caruthers killed maryanne . danny : what do you think we 've been up to ? we just voted . bill : you did ? good . excellent , excellent . i hope you voted for the right guy . all right , did you happen to check the exit polls ? danny : what do you think ? bill : all right . look , all right , obviously you did . but believe me , do not let that color your attitude , okay ? danny : okay . bill : all right ? i know it looks like we 're down a little bit , but believe me , we 're going to be back up there just like we were at 11 : 13 this morning . michelle : you have it timed to the minute ? bill : michelle , this is how these things work , all right ? this is how you have to do it . sometimes you can predict these things , sometimes you ca n't , all right ? the show is not over until it 's over . all right ? danny : but right now we 're down . bill : yeah . but ... danny : we 're down . when was the last time i was up ? bill : like i said , 11 : 13 . danny : what ? i did n't quite catch that . bill : 11 : 13 , danny ! will you stay positive , all right ? believe me , your number 's going to be back up there . you are due , my friend . danny : you 're right , you 're right , you 're right . i 'm due . bill : that 's what i like to ... danny : you 're right . bill : relax a little bit , okay ? ( cell phone rings ) look , i 've got to take this . but in the meantime , stay positive . talk to me . danny : what ? i know , i know . i 've got to buck up , put the game face on . michelle : that 's not what i was thinking . danny : what were you thinking ? michelle : just that check - in time was about 3 : 00 . danny : really ? oh , it 's way past 3 : 00 . michelle : so , now are you thinking what i 'm thinking ? danny : i 'm thinking maybe i am thinking what you 're thinking . let 's go . joey : ms. spaulding , this is really fun . you really helped me out a lot . alexandra : thank you , thank you . well , do n't tell anyone , but it 's a lot of fun for me . i wanted to be an actress , but my father said it was n't a noble profession . tammy : here , i thought my mom had maybe sent you over here to check on me or something . alexandra : oh , not at all , not at all , darling . as a matter of fact , i did this as a favor to edmund . but do n't tell him how much fun i 'm having really , because i told him he owed me really big for this one , and i like to keep him a little off - balance . ( laughter ) by the way , he is very proud of you , young lady . tammy : really ? he said that ? alexandra : oh , yes . he certainly did . tammy : edmund 's been so great , recommending other plays i should read , and he has me writing in a journal every day . it really helps with the process . joey : lizzie 's pretty amazing , too . alexandra : we are very proud -- always have been -- of lizzie 's acting abilities . i am so surrounded by talent here . and you know , marina is a gifted actress . mm - hmm . sandy : yeah , that 's the rumor i 've been hearing about her . alexandra : well , her grandfather and i are waiting for her to star in her college production next year . marina : who knows ? i 've learned not to plan ahead . alexandra : oh , now , nonsense . marina : well , listen , i do n't really want to talk about me . why do n't you guys go on with your rehearsal ? alexandra : good idea . let 's get on with it . i want to vote on my way home . nico : i hope you 're voting for the right person . alexandra : well , of course i am . ( laughs ) all right , now ... `` what 's here ? a cup , closed in my true love 's hands ? poison . i see . `` poison . reva : after christopher put me under hypnosis , i went back to the night maryanne died . i was there , right next to her at the fairgrounds , in the car , at the riverbank . i experienced everything that happened to her . ed : honey , take it slow . you 're still not out of danger . josh : you need to take a break now . reva : no . no . i need to tell this , all of it . maryanne got out of the car after it crashed into the river , but the current carried her downstream , and you could have kept diving and diving and you never would have found her . but carrie found her . jeffrey : how did carrie know where to find her ? reva : because she followed alan 's car from the fairgrounds . she 'd been watching maryanne all night . she did n't like what she saw , either . she was trying to control maryanne . that 's why she was going to take her away . that 's why she did n't want her in town . she was trying to take her away from springfield . they were going to leave the next day . ed : you mean the day after ? reva : yes . maryanne did n't want to go . and they were fighting . carrie was so controlling . she just was so controlling . she said terrible things to maryanne . she said she did n't belong in springfield , and that the boys did n't mean anything to her . and she tried to comfort her with this scarf , and she put it around her shoulders , but somehow it ended up around her throat , and carrie kept pulling on it and pulling on it . she just strangled her until it was too late . josh : you saw her die ? reva : there was nothing i could do to stop it , nothing . there was nothing you could have done that night either , any of you . ( sobbing ) jeffrey : all these years , carrie 's been in hiding , blaming these men , plotting a revenge so that she would n't have to face the truth : that she killed her own niece . reva : you 've spent half your life carrying around that guilt , joshua , and she was the guilty one . there was a crime committed that night , but it was n't yours . it was n't yours . jeffrey : reva , if your story checks out ... reva : it will , because it 's true , every word of it . christopher : in all my years of practice , i have never seen a patient regress so deeply into the spirit of someone who 's crossed over . what happened to reva is real -- so real that she almost lost her life . you ca n't fake something like that . ( cell phone rings ) ed : you ca n't have that on in here . jeffrey : i 'm sorry . i 'll be right back . josh : so are you going to rest now ? reva : i 'll rest when we find carrie . josh : she sounds like herself . how is she ? ed : she 's doing much better . i 'll tell you something , though . the way you came in here today , we should have lost you . i guess the will to survive surprises us all . reva : i 'm full of surprises , ises , ed . ed : you certainly are . i 'll check back in with you a little bit later . thank you . christopher : we need to talk . jeffrey : okay . just finish up with reva , okay ? christopher : i quit . josh : i never want to come that close to losing you again . reva : you wo n't , bud . josh : it was a big risk you took , going into the past like that . reva : it 's not like it was the first time . josh : ( laughs ) just promise me it 'll be the last . reva : it will . the only thing i care about now is our future . josh : i can let it go now , the past . and it 's because of you . you lifted from me the one sin that i 'd never really been able to carry . reva : it was a sin you never committed , though , joshua . josh : but still , you did n't just save marah 's life today . you saved mine , too . sandy : that 's weird . my aunt is here . alexandra : your ... oh , my lord . well , party 's over . sandy : excuse me . olivia : hi . sandy : aunt olivia . olivia : how are you ? sandy : i 'm good . olivia : good . looks like you got a big party going on in there . sandy : just play rehearsal . olivia : yeah ? is josh around ? sandy : no , actually , he was gone when we got here . olivia : oh . okay . alexandra : would you hold up just a minute ? blake : well , almost all of your staff has headed over to the towers for the victory party . do n't you think it 's about time that the new mayor heads over himself ? ross : blake , the polls have n't even closed yet . blake : yeah , well , if these numbers are any indication ... ross : please , do n't jinx us . blake : jinx ? since when do you believe in jinxes ? i do n't believe in jinxes . i believe in you -- a very practical choice , i might add . ross : you said `` practical . `` who are you ? what have you done with blake ? where 's my wife ? you know , if it were n't for you , i would n't even be running ? blake : are you blaming me ? ross : no , no . i 'm thanking you for the pep talk that made all of this happen . and it occurred right here , as a matter of fact . blake : i remember it well . i will be expecting a favor in return for that very effective pep talk from the new mayor . i think perhaps tonight , after the victory party . no jinxing , sorry . ross : remember this : anything can happen so long as the polls are open . so let 's put a stop to the victory talk , okay ? blake : ross , it 's not like you to get the jitters . you want to tell me exactly what 's going on ? edmund : hey . cassie : updates . tvs ? edmund : done . caterers ? cassie : overwhelmed . edmund : polls ? cassie : closing . meet back here in ... edmund : five minutes . tony : you look like you 're having a good time , enjoying yourself . eden : i 've never been part of anything like this . it 's exciting . tony : yeah , you look ... you look happy . eden : i am happy . tony : good . eden : i 've never been this happy . tony : that 's all that matters , eden . see ya . bill : well , that 's it . polls are officially closed . nothing left to do but count the votes . eden : what 's wrong ? bill : i just wish we had a few more hours . i think we could have really pulled this thing off . eden : you do n't think danny 's going to lose after all the hard work we did ? bill : you know , eden , i do n't know . i do n't know . eden : hey . what 's going on with you ? you 're usually his head cheerleader . bill : that 's campaign manager , okay , honey ? and it 's part of my job , okay ? i 've got to get him ready for the fight . and between you and me , it looks like danny really has a fight on his hands . reporter : the polls have closed in springfield and our early exit polls are showing ross marler leading danny santos by four points , and that 's a significant margin . you 'll want to stay tuned for complete coverage while the votes are counted . we 'll of course be bringing you live updates ... danny : hey , hey , hey . come on , whatever happened to waiting until the fat lady sings ? come on . michelle : okay . all right . well , then this fat lady is going to have to sing on mute , because i am not about to share you with a bunch of talking heads . danny : well , all right ... michelle : not after i finally got you alone after months and months of sharing you with this town . danny : no worries . i think you 're going to get a lot more of me to yourself than you bargained for after tonight . michelle : you know what ? you just do n't get it , because you 've already won . danny : really ? michelle : mm - hmm . danny : you know something i do n't know ? michelle : yeah . yeah , because i know that you ran your campaign right . you showed people in this town that it 's high time for them to start paying attention to the important issues . danny : mm - hmm . michelle : you put the people first . hey . hey , in my book , you 're already a winner . danny : i do n't think springfield has read your book . michelle : well , you know what ? maybe ross is going to get more votes than you . danny : oh , thanks for your confidence . michelle : but maybe he won't . maybe he won't . and whoever is going to move into that mayor 's office is going to have a complete changed landscape to deal with , and that is thanks to you , danny , because you raised the bar . danny : thank you . michelle : for what ? danny : for showing me how . michelle : so , does this mean that you 're going to , you know , make room for me in your agenda when you 're putting the people first ? danny : the people i 'll always put first are my family . michelle : i ca n't believe you 're wooing me with campaign promises . danny : no , it 's true . that 's a promise i 'll keep . i mean it . i do . oh , michelle , you and robbie are my whole world . michelle : you 're mine , too . jeffrey : you ca n't quit . christopher : i just did . jeffrey : look , you just went through a life - or - death situation with reva , okay ? you 're the shrink . i do n't have to tell you , you should n't be making rash ... christopher : this is not a rash decision . we 're in the kind of business where you ca n't make mistakes , and i just made one , and it almost cost reva her life . jeffrey : look at the results you got , chris . christopher : no ! the ends do not justify the means , not in this case . jeffrey : yes , they do . you 've got to do what you 've got to do to get the job done . if you 've lost sight of that , well , then maybe you should get out . christopher : that 's what i want . jeffrey : okay . fine , you 're out . christopher : just like that ? no argument ? jeffrey : if you do n't have the backbone to understand that your work is valuable and worth certain risks , well , then i do n't want you . so if you 'll excuse me , i have work to do . you know , i do n't always like what i have to do , but i know i have to do it . and i do know that it is justified in the end . josh : i 'm sorry i ever doubted your ability . reva : well , i 'm sorry it cost us so much . josh : but it 's given us so much , too . reva : it 's cost us more than it 's given us . you know , when i was on that riverbank , i felt so far away from you . i never want to feel that far away again . josh : you wo n't , because i 'm going to be with you , always . alexandra : well , i 'm surprised to see you here . olivia : likewise . i just ... i came to see josh . i just needed some advice . alexandra : oh , yeah . well , how 's emma ? olivia : she 's fine . she 's fine . i have to get going . alexandra : oh , wait just a moment , please . i mean ... i 'm sorry , i 'm just so curious about what your plans are . i mean ... it 's just that , well , having a new baby in the family is so exciting to all of us . it 's been so good for phillip . it 's very important for his recovery . olivia : i know . i know that phillip loves his children very much . alexandra : of course . well , children are the future of a family . look , olivia , i know we have n't been a very welcoming family , and i do realize that we have to change our ways . i just hope it 's not too late . olivia : too late ? alexandra : yes , to convince you and emma to stay in springfield and become a real part of the spaulding family . blake : okay , so you 're nervous , you 're second - guessing yourself , and you 're wondering why you even decided to run for mayor . ross : yes , yes , and yes . blake : perfectly normal , really . i mean , after all , we have a wonderful life . we each have our work , our children . we have each other . i 'd say we 're the luckiest people in the world . ross : well , there you go . that is a great reason for not making any major changes , and yet here we are . i do n't want our life to change , blake . it 's nice being a happy , normal couple . blake : `` normal `` just makes me a little nervous . ross : well , you know , being first lady of springfield , it does require a little bit of decorum and normalcy . would n't you say that ? blake : i suppose . i was kind of hoping to make this job my own . but there is something else . ross : i 'm so afraid to hear this . blake : i owe you this opportunity , ross . i 'm the reason you gave up your senate seat all those years ago . remember ? that was me . ross : blake , i 've never regretted that decision . i 've never regretted it at all . i told you that a million times , have n't i ? blake : you never regretted missing the opportunity to serve in office ?

( laughter ) reva : my heart . josh : do n't try to talk , reva . reva : i feel like it 's been ripped out of my chest . ed : that 's because you stopped breathing . if that had gone on much longer , if josh had n't performed cpr , we could 've lost you . reva : i saw the most amazing things , joshua . josh : you said it was hell . reva : there 's so many things we did n't know about . josh : reva , this can wait . reva : no . josh : you need to rest . reva : no , it ca n't wait . this is exactly what we 've been waiting for . now we can make things right for marah , for you , for all of you . the night maryanne died ... i was there , and i know the truth about carrie and maryanne , all of it . ed : honey , rest now . you can tell us everything later . reva : no . could someone please find jeffrey o'neill ? josh : no , you heard what ed said . this can wait . reva : no . no , it ca n't wait . i 've got to say this while it 's still clear in my mind . please bring jeffrey here so i can tell him . jeffrey : what do you want to tell me , reva ? reva : maryanne ... maryanne caruthers survived the car that went off the bridge . jeffrey : are you sure ? reva : yeah . it was n't the crash that killed her , joshua . she survived that . it was n't you . it was n't your fault that she drowned . she did n't drown all those years ago . she did n't die because you gave up trying to save her . it was n't you . josh : then how ? reva : it was caroline . caroline caruthers killed maryanne . danny : what do you think we 've been up to ? we just voted . bill : you did ? good . excellent , excellent . i hope you voted for the right guy . all right , did you happen to check the exit polls ? danny : what do you think ? bill : all right . look , all right , obviously you did . but believe me , do not let that color your attitude , okay ? danny : okay . bill : all right ? i know it looks like we 're down a little bit , but believe me , we 're going to be back up there just like we were at 11 : 13 this morning . michelle : you have it timed to the minute ? bill : michelle , this is how these things work , all right ? this is how you have to do it . sometimes you can predict these things , sometimes you ca n't , all right ? the show is not over until it 's over . all right ? danny : but right now we 're down . bill : yeah . but ... danny : we 're down . when was the last time i was up ? bill : like i said , 11 : 13 . danny : what ? i did n't quite catch that . bill : 11 : 13 , danny ! will you stay positive , all right ? believe me , your number 's going to be back up there . you are due , my friend . danny : you 're right , you 're right , you 're right . i 'm due . bill : that 's what i like to ... danny : you 're right . bill : relax a little bit , okay ? ( cell phone rings ) look , i 've got to take this . but in the meantime , stay positive . talk to me . danny : what ? i know , i know . i 've got to buck up , put the game face on . michelle : that 's not what i was thinking . danny : what were you thinking ? michelle : just that check - in time was about 3 : 00 . danny : really ? oh , it 's way past 3 : 00 . michelle : so , now are you thinking what i 'm thinking ? danny : i 'm thinking maybe i am thinking what you 're thinking . let 's go . joey : ms. spaulding , this is really fun . you really helped me out a lot . alexandra : thank you , thank you . well , do n't tell anyone , but it 's a lot of fun for me . i wanted to be an actress , but my father said it was n't a noble profession . tammy : here , i thought my mom had maybe sent you over here to check on me or something . alexandra : oh , not at all , not at all , darling . as a matter of fact , i did this as a favor to edmund . but do n't tell him how much fun i 'm having really , because i told him he owed me really big for this one , and i like to keep him a little off - balance . ( laughter ) by the way , he is very proud of you , young lady . tammy : really ? he said that ? alexandra : oh , yes . he certainly did . tammy : edmund 's been so great , recommending other plays i should read , and he has me writing in a journal every day . it really helps with the process . joey : lizzie 's pretty amazing , too . alexandra : we are very proud -- always have been -- of lizzie 's acting abilities . i am so surrounded by talent here . and you know , marina is a gifted actress . mm - hmm . sandy : yeah , that 's the rumor i 've been hearing about her . alexandra : well , her grandfather and i are waiting for her to star in her college production next year . marina : who knows ? i 've learned not to plan ahead . alexandra : oh , now , nonsense . marina : well , listen , i do n't really want to talk about me . why do n't you guys go on with your rehearsal ? alexandra : good idea . let 's get on with it . i want to vote on my way home . nico : i hope you 're voting for the right person . alexandra : well , of course i am . ( laughs ) all right , now ... `` what 's here ? a cup , closed in my true love 's hands ? poison . i see . `` poison . reva : after christopher put me under hypnosis , i went back to the night maryanne died . i was there , right next to her at the fairgrounds , in the car , at the riverbank . i experienced everything that happened to her . ed : honey , take it slow . you 're still not out of danger . josh : you need to take a break now . reva : no . no . i need to tell this , all of it . maryanne got out of the car after it crashed into the river , but the current carried her downstream , and you could have kept diving and diving and you never would have found her . but carrie found her . jeffrey : how did carrie know where to find her ? reva : because she followed alan 's car from the fairgrounds . she 'd been watching maryanne all night . she did n't like what she saw , either . she was trying to control maryanne . that 's why she was going to take her away . that 's why she did n't want her in town . she was trying to take her away from springfield . they were going to leave the next day . ed : you mean the day after ? reva : yes . maryanne did n't want to go . and they were fighting . carrie was so controlling . she just was so controlling . she said terrible things to maryanne . she said she did n't belong in springfield , and that the boys did n't mean anything to her . and she tried to comfort her with this scarf , and she put it around her shoulders , but somehow it ended up around her throat , and carrie kept pulling on it and pulling on it . she just strangled her until it was too late . josh : you saw her die ? reva : there was nothing i could do to stop it , nothing . there was nothing you could have done that night either , any of you . ( sobbing ) jeffrey : all these years , carrie 's been in hiding , blaming these men , plotting a revenge so that she would n't have to face the truth : that she killed her own niece . reva : you 've spent half your life carrying around that guilt , joshua , and she was the guilty one . there was a crime committed that night , but it was n't yours . it was n't yours . jeffrey : reva , if your story checks out ... reva : it will , because it 's true , every word of it . christopher : in all my years of practice , i have never seen a patient regress so deeply into the spirit of someone who 's crossed over . what happened to reva is real -- so real that she almost lost her life . you ca n't fake something like that . ( cell phone rings ) ed : you ca n't have that on in here . jeffrey : i 'm sorry . i 'll be right back . josh : so are you going to rest now ? reva : i 'll rest when we find carrie . josh : she sounds like herself . how is she ? ed : she 's doing much better . i 'll tell you something , though . the way you came in here today , we should have lost you . i guess the will to survive surprises us all . reva : i 'm full of surprises , ises , ed . ed : you certainly are . i 'll check back in with you a little bit later . thank you . christopher : we need to talk . jeffrey : okay . just finish up with reva , okay ? christopher : i quit . josh : i never want to come that close to losing you again . reva : you wo n't , bud . josh : it was a big risk you took , going into the past like that . reva : it 's not like it was the first time . josh : ( laughs ) just promise me it 'll be the last . reva : it will . the only thing i care about now is our future . josh : i can let it go now , the past . and it 's because of you . you lifted from me the one sin that i 'd never really been able to carry . reva : it was a sin you never committed , though , joshua . josh : but still , you did n't just save marah 's life today . you saved mine , too . sandy : that 's weird . my aunt is here . alexandra : your ... oh , my lord . well , party 's over . sandy : excuse me . olivia : hi . sandy : aunt olivia . olivia : how are you ? sandy : i 'm good . olivia : good . looks like you got a big party going on in there . sandy : just play rehearsal . olivia : yeah ? is josh around ? sandy : no , actually , he was gone when we got here . olivia : oh . okay . alexandra : would you hold up just a minute ? blake : well , almost all of your staff has headed over to the towers for the victory party . do n't you think it 's about time that the new mayor heads over himself ? ross : blake , the polls have n't even closed yet . blake : yeah , well , if these numbers are any indication ... ross : please , do n't jinx us . blake : jinx ? since when do you believe in jinxes ? i do n't believe in jinxes . i believe in you -- a very practical choice , i might add . ross : you said `` practical . `` who are you ? what have you done with blake ? where 's my wife ? you know , if it were n't for you , i would n't even be running ? blake : are you blaming me ? ross : no , no . i 'm thanking you for the pep talk that made all of this happen . and it occurred right here , as a matter of fact . blake : i remember it well . i will be expecting a favor in return for that very effective pep talk from the new mayor . i think perhaps tonight , after the victory party . no jinxing , sorry . ross : remember this : anything can happen so long as the polls are open . so let 's put a stop to the victory talk , okay ? blake : ross , it 's not like you to get the jitters . you want to tell me exactly what 's going on ? edmund : hey . cassie : updates . tvs ? edmund : done . caterers ? cassie : overwhelmed . edmund : polls ? cassie : closing . meet back here in ... edmund : five minutes . tony : you look like you 're having a good time , enjoying yourself . eden : i 've never been part of anything like this . it 's exciting . tony : yeah , you look ... you look happy . eden : i am happy . tony : good . eden : i 've never been this happy . tony : that 's all that matters , eden . see ya . bill : well , that 's it . polls are officially closed . nothing left to do but count the votes . eden : what 's wrong ? bill : i just wish we had a few more hours . i think we could have really pulled this thing off . eden : you do n't think danny 's going to lose after all the hard work we did ? bill : you know , eden , i do n't know . i do n't know . eden : hey . what 's going on with you ? you 're usually his head cheerleader . bill : that 's campaign manager , okay , honey ? and it 's part of my job , okay ? i 've got to get him ready for the fight . and between you and me , it looks like danny really has a fight on his hands . reporter : the polls have closed in springfield and our early exit polls are showing ross marler leading danny santos by four points , and that 's a significant margin . you 'll want to stay tuned for complete coverage while the votes are counted . we 'll of course be bringing you live updates ... danny : hey , hey , hey . come on , whatever happened to waiting until the fat lady sings ? come on . michelle : okay . all right . well , then this fat lady is going to have to sing on mute , because i am not about to share you with a bunch of talking heads . danny : well , all right ... michelle : not after i finally got you alone after months and months of sharing you with this town . danny : no worries . i think you 're going to get a lot more of me to yourself than you bargained for after tonight . michelle : you know what ? you just do n't get it , because you 've already won . danny : really ? michelle : mm - hmm . danny : you know something i do n't know ? michelle : yeah . yeah , because i know that you ran your campaign right . you showed people in this town that it 's high time for them to start paying attention to the important issues . danny : mm - hmm . michelle : you put the people first . hey . hey , in my book , you 're already a winner . danny : i do n't think springfield has read your book . michelle : well , you know what ? maybe ross is going to get more votes than you . danny : oh , thanks for your confidence . michelle : but maybe he won't . maybe he won't . and whoever is going to move into that mayor 's office is going to have a complete changed landscape to deal with , and that is thanks to you , danny , because you raised the bar . danny : thank you . michelle : for what ? danny : for showing me how . michelle : so , does this mean that you 're going to , you know , make room for me in your agenda when you 're putting the people first ? danny : the people i 'll always put first are my family . michelle : i ca n't believe you 're wooing me with campaign promises . danny : no , it 's true . that 's a promise i 'll keep . i mean it . i do . oh , michelle , you and robbie are my whole world . michelle : you 're mine , too . jeffrey : you ca n't quit . christopher : i just did . jeffrey : look , you just went through a life - or - death situation with reva , okay ? you 're the shrink . i do n't have to tell you , you should n't be making rash ... christopher : this is not a rash decision . we 're in the kind of business where you ca n't make mistakes , and i just made one , and it almost cost reva her life . jeffrey : look at the results you got , chris . christopher : no ! the ends do not justify the means , not in this case . jeffrey : yes , they do . you 've got to do what you 've got to do to get the job done . if you 've lost sight of that , well , then maybe you should get out . christopher : that 's what i want . jeffrey : okay . fine , you 're out . christopher : just like that ? no argument ? jeffrey : if you do n't have the backbone to understand that your work is valuable and worth certain risks , well , then i do n't want you . so if you 'll excuse me , i have work to do . you know , i do n't always like what i have to do , but i know i have to do it . and i do know that it is justified in the end . josh : i 'm sorry i ever doubted your ability . reva : well , i 'm sorry it cost us so much . josh : but it 's given us so much , too . reva : it 's cost us more than it 's given us . you know , when i was on that riverbank , i felt so far away from you . i never want to feel that far away again . josh : you wo n't , because i 'm going to be with you , always . alexandra : well , i 'm surprised to see you here . olivia : likewise . i just ... i came to see josh . i just needed some advice . alexandra : oh , yeah . well , how 's emma ? olivia : she 's fine . she 's fine . i have to get going . alexandra : oh , wait just a moment , please . i mean ... i 'm sorry , i 'm just so curious about what your plans are . i mean ... it 's just that , well , having a new baby in the family is so exciting to all of us . it 's been so good for phillip . it 's very important for his recovery . olivia : i know . i know that phillip loves his children very much . alexandra : of course . well , children are the future of a family . look , olivia , i know we have n't been a very welcoming family , and i do realize that we have to change our ways . i just hope it 's not too late . olivia : too late ? alexandra : yes , to convince you and emma to stay in springfield and become a real part of the spaulding family . blake : okay , so you 're nervous , you 're second - guessing yourself , and you 're wondering why you even decided to run for mayor . ross : yes , yes , and yes . blake : perfectly normal , really . i mean , after all , we have a wonderful life . we each have our work , our children . we have each other . i 'd say we 're the luckiest people in the world . ross : well , there you go . that is a great reason for not making any major changes , and yet here we are . i do n't want our life to change , blake . it 's nice being a happy , normal couple . blake : `` normal `` just makes me a little nervous . ross : well , you know , being first lady of springfield , it does require a little bit of decorum and normalcy . would n't you say that ? blake : i suppose . i was kind of hoping to make this job my own . but there is something else . ross : i 'm so afraid to hear this . blake : i owe you this opportunity , ross . i 'm the reason you gave up your senate seat all those years ago . remember ?

[ chuckling ] i mean , you do n't even want to try ? you 're not even gon na make an effort ? robin : no , no , no , i do n't mean that . it wo n't be possible because i wo n't be here . ric : ah , same old sonny . paranoid as ever . sonny : it 's not paranoid if you 're right . there are people working against me . ric : and why do you think that is ? sonny : jealousy . ric : perhaps . but for the first time , i ca n't be counted among your many enemies . sonny : you sure about that ? ric : you 're not ? sonny : you chained carly to a wall . you said you were gon na take my son away from her when he was born and give him to elizabeth like he was some abandoned puppy that needed to be rescued . ric : yes , i did horrible things . sonny : so we agree on that . ric : but those days are over . sonny : so , you 're one of the good guys ? ric : [ chuckles ] i 'm trying to be . sonny : i bet you are . ric : look , we 're far from water under the bridge here , but i thought we were coming to some kind of a détente before i left for los angeles . sonny : détente ? that 's nice . nice word . ric : yeah . sonny : so , what you 're saying , ric , is you want to pick up where we left off , leave the past behind us , be friends , be brothers . ric : we can start by trying to act peaceably with one another and , you know , maybe go from there . come on . what do you say ? julian : with me out of the picture , danny 's vulnerable . shawn : there you go again cowering behind a human shield . julian : i am just stating fact . shawn : well , here 's a fact . you can always donate bone marrow from a wheelchair . alexis : what the hell are you doing ? a.j . : come on , man . why are you doing this ? look , i already told you , you can take whatever you want . it 's -- it 's all insured , okay ? i - i ca n't i.d . you ! carlos : get down on your knees . a.j . : listen to me . there 's a safe behind that painting right there . i 'll open it up for you , okay ? carlos : get down ! a.j . : why are you doing this ? carlos : down . down . get down ! ava : what is wrong with you ? delia : oh , relax , sugar . ava : do n't call me sugar ! delia : i ca n't help it . sometimes my hands are not quite connected to my brain . ava : what brain ? i 'm sticky . covered in pulp ! delia : uh , i do n't think so . we only se juice here . you know , there are industrial hand dryers in the loo . fix you right up , ava . ava : unbelievable . delia : did you get my message ? sam : well , i did n't think it was important . delia : well , yes , it was important . sam : what is she doing here ? delia : i do n't know . she just showed up out of the blue . sam : yeah ? she did n't say anything ? delia : no , she said , `` i 'm just trying to catch up with you , `` which is really strange , 'cause i called her , and last time i called her , she went `` delia who ? `` where 's silas ? sam : silas ? uh , he had a -- he had a phone call with a patient . he 's gon na be here any second . so is nakamura . we got to get rid of her before our cover 's blown . delia : okay . all right . i 'll come up with a pl -- i know just how to make ava disappear . a.j . : please , please do n't do this . [ glass shatters ] tracy : what are you doing ? ! get out ! luke , do n't ! do n't ! do n't ! luke : stay here ! tracy : [ sighs ] are you all right ? a.j . : yeah . i think so . tracy : what was that ? was he robbing the place ? a.j . : for -- for some reason , he seemed intent on killing me . ava : what the hell . mother . mother ! is this some kind of a joke ? because it 's not funny ! i 'm not laughing ! what are you looking at ? delia : all right , you stay out of sight . let me deal with ava . sam : are you sure ? delia : i 'm positive . okay . sam : hey . delia : okay , fill him in . silas : what did i miss ? what 's going on ? we 're not going in ? sam : uh , not with ava in there , no . delia : are you all cleaned up ? ava : it 's gon na have to be dry - cleaned . delia : oh , just send me the bill . ava , can i ask you a little favor ? could you float me a loan ? ava : [ laughs ] you 're serious . delia : i am . just a couple of thousand . you know how i am about vintage clothes , and there 's this russian sable . it 's really beautiful . couple thousand bucks . and it 's got this little head on it with beady , little eyes that can look right through you . silas : what the hell is ava doing here ? sam : um ... silas : you think she 's onto us ? sam : supposedly it 's just a coincidence . [ footsteps approach ] both : that was close . ric : you gon na leave me hanging ? sonny : well , after everything that 's gone on between us , you know , i 'm a little cautious . ric : fair enough . but i meant what i said . things are different now . sonny : you 're different ? ric : yes . sonny : [ laughs ] ric : being away from molly made me realize what matters , okay ? sonny : uh - huh . ric : and i hated missing her , but it was a lesson that i needed to learn , and it 's changed me for the better , and i 'm just hoping that you 'll give me the opportunity to show you that . sonny : i just wish you were on the level , ric . ric : i am , sonny . sonny : you know what ? you might want to think twice about getting close to me . ric : why 's that ? sonny : because what i said earlier about people , you know , after me . it 's no joke . ric : i thought the zaccharas were out of commission . sonny : not the zaccharas . there 's -- there 's a new game in town . his name is julian jerome . alexis : are you out of your mind ? danny is a room away , and you attack his grandfather ? shawn : i did n't know danny was here . julian : yeah , of course not , because i tried to tell you . but before i said a word , the guy had me slammed up against the wall . alexis : i do n't believe this . julian : oh , the guy 's rabid . completely out of control . you know what ? if you had n't have showed up , i 'm honestly afraid of what this guy would have done to me . shawn : oh , give it a rest . alexis : all right , shawn , you need to go . shawn : but you have no idea of this guy -- alexis : shawn , please . do n't make it any worse . just go . shawn : fine . i 'll go . you just tell your little boyfriend here or whatever you want to call him to stay the hell away from tj . alexis : what are you talking about ? shawn : look , this man you trust to watch your grandson is the same man who just threatened a high schooler last night . julian : [ groans ] alexis : is that true ? sabrina : i 'm sorry . it 's none of my business what happens between you and robin . i - i should n't have pried . patrick : sabrina , if anybody has a right to ask what 's going with me or where i 'm gon na be , it 's -- it 's you . sabrina : last question . patrick : okay . sabrina : robin 's leaving . it did n't have anything to do with me , did it , or the baby ? i - i do n't think i could live with myself if it did . carly : i 'm still on pain medication , so maybe i did n't hear you correctly . robin : you heard me . i am leaving port charles . carly : with patrick and emma ? robin : alone . carly : okay . let me get this straight . international criminals fake your death , they kidnap you , they basically use you as their research monkey for two years , and when you 're finally free , finally reunited with your family , you say , `` hmm , maybe i like it better with me and my microscope `` ? robin : yeah , that 's exactly what happened . carly : then -- then correct me , robin . robin : this decision , it was n't made lightly , carly . carly : but you 're making it . robin : i did , because people ... they need me . carly : they need you ? what about your family needing you ? i mean , your -- your daughter and patrick . he just -- he just gave up a woman he loves for you . robin : patrick and i are meant to be together . carly : but yet you 're still leaving ! i - i get your research ! i really do ! but come on . i mean , you ca n't just leave your family ! they need you , too ! i do n't understand you ! robin : i do n't even know why i 'm listening to this . this has nothing to do with you , carly . carly : no , it does n't . it has everything to do with you , robin . it always does , does n't it ? robin : really ? carly : yeah , really . robin : says the self - proclaimed center of the universe . carly : i do n't know what i was thinking . i take it back . i take it all back about wanting to coexist or be friendly . i mean , you 're still the same self- absorbed , self - important martyr that you always have been . robin : carly -- carly : st. robin -- robin : carly , that is crap , okay ? if you knew anything , if you had any idea about why i 'm leaving , you would bow down and worship me . carly : what the hell is that supposed to mean ? patrick : no , sabrina , no . robin -- she 's not leaving because of you , and she 's not leaving because of the baby . all right ? i 'm really sorry that i missed the appointment . i - i just ... sabrina : it 's okay . it 's okay . you obviously have a lot going on . patrick : well , i do n't want you to think that i 'm not involved or interested in the baby , because i am , all right ? i care about you both very much . and next appointment , i 'll -- i 'll be there no matter what , all right ? sabrina : okay . patrick : okay . sabrina : [ chuckles ] just wait till you hear the heartbeat . patrick : yeah ? strong ? sabrina : oh , it sounds like -- like a horse galloping . [ chuckling ] it 's crazy . patrick : i ca n't wait . sabrina : patrick . patrick : yeah ? sabrina : i really am sorry about robin . patrick : yeah . me , too . thanks . carly : i 'm waiting . where are you going , and what am i worshipping you for ? robin : forget i said anything . carly : no , you 're the one ditching your family for some big , important reason . robin : carly , i 'm not ditching them . carly : then enlighten me , okay ? because you do n't get to throw out a statement like that and not explain what the hell you 're talking about . patrick : carly , lay off . carly : oh , my god . you are going to defend the wandering wife to the bitter end , are n't you ? patrick : i said that 's enough . carly : do you not care that robin is leaving you high and dry ? carlos : hola , chica . sabrina : [ gasps ] tracy : police are on their way . oh , luke , thank god . luke : [ sighs ] he made it to the tree line then disappeared . tracy : did you really think you were gon na catch him minutes out of the hospital ? luke : i 'm fit as a fiddle . tracy : and dumb as a post . luke : hey . i did n't want him coming back here and hurting somebody i care about . tracy : me ? luke : you . a.j . : you know , this is touching , truly . but the only person who was in any danger was yours truly . listen , that guy -- that guy purposefully waited for michael to leave . he let himself in , and then he tried to kill me . tracy : are you sure you did n't just interrupt a burglary ? a.j . : tracy , think about it . he was watching us , right ? i mean , why not just wait until i leave so that he can rob the place ? tracy : maybe he 's not the sharpest tool in the shed . a.j . : no , no , no , no . this guy had a mask on , all right ? i could not identify him . killing me was unnecessary ! luke : he 's right . so , who is it that wants you dead ? a.j . : i 'll tell you who 's at the top of the list . silas : ava knows , right ? nakamura must have figured out what we were doing . he got her down here . sam : do n't sound the alarm bells just yet . delia : so , you do n't think ava just came over here to catch up with me , do you ? sam : i do n't know , but i think if she thought that we were trying to get the goods on her , she would definitely want to stick around and lord over us . delia : oh , ava loves to lord . sam : okay , look , as far as we know , nakamura is still on his way over here for his date with you , so i say we go through with it . i mean , what do we have to lose ? alexis : i know you had a front - row seat to my hysteria with tj and molly last night , but molly is my daughter . i can handle it myself . shawn : it 's not about that . this guy does n't care about what our kids are up to unless it affects his business , right ? alexis : i 'm officially confused . shawn : the attack on sonny 's warehouse , max getting shot ? that 's what this was about . alexis : help me . julian : after you left the hotel with molly , yeah , i stayed behind , had a little chat with tj that 's all . shawn : oh , is that what you call it ? he threatened the kid . julian : what i did was urge tj to cooperate with the police , not to risk any trouble with the law by covering it up for you and sonny , to tell the police what he actually saw . alexis : which was ? julian : sonny and shawn about to execute my associate , carlos . oh , yeah . yeah . and when i showed up to intervene , they tried to kill me , too . so how about it , shawn ? go ahead . jump in anytime you think i 'm seeing something that 's not true here . ric : so jerome 's gunning for you now ? sonny : ever since he got here . as far as i can tell , years before that . seems like -- like you know something about that . ric : oh , molly , she eluded to something on the phone . i mean , she did n't go into details . i just gathered that it had something to do with sam 's biological father . sonny : you gathered right . ric : julian jerome . [ scoffs ] she drew the short straw on that one , did n't she ? sonny : sam 's rolling with it . ric : how alexis ever got involved with a criminal like that , that 's ... sonny : probably gearing up for you . ric : or you .

[ scoffs ] she drew the short straw on that one , did n't she ? sonny : sam 's rolling with it . ric : how alexis ever got involved with a criminal like that , that 's ... sonny : probably gearing up for you . ric : or you .

[ scene_break ] jason : when you lose someone you love , you want a reason . you want someone to blame , even if it 's yourself . spinelli : maxie wo n't stop until properly punished , even if that punishment stems from a crime that she did not , in fact , commit . jason : i - i know how she feels . i blame myself , too . spinelli : well , the explosion was no more your fault than hers . jason : robin went back into that lab to get the drug that she made for me . if she did n't , she 'd still be alive . spinelli : but that was her decision to make . jason : i was angry at her for making that decision , spinelli . i was angry at myself . spinelli : no person or -- or thing is accountable for robin 's death . i mean , there are so many factors that could have altered the outcome . jason : that 's exactly what you have to help maxie understand . spinelli : i 'm grateful , as always , for your wisdom . [ groans ] jason : what ? spinelli : well , while i subscribe wholeheartedly to your theory , there 's always the possibility that maxie wo n't see reason and -- and that she 'll still plead guilty , and then she 'll be condemned to a life behind bars . jason : so find the real killer . spinelli : the real killer ? jason : somebody murdered lisa niles . if you could prove it was n't maxie , then she 's off the hook . spinelli : whether she likes it or not .

[ scene_break ] jax : be honest . what do you really expect to get out of this ole revenge plot ? do you think it 's going to make up for the past or make you feel better ? irina : i expect jerry to suffer unspeakable pain while watching you die , the way he did n't suffer when he thought i died . jax : no , you 're wrong -- jerry did suffer . jerry lost his mind . that drove him to put himself at the center of a hostage crisis . yeah , there was a standoff with a swat team and police , and jerry set off explosives and it did n't end too well for jerry or the hostages . look , when my brother first told me about you , he told me how much you were in love . then he told me how he thought he caused your death . i 've never seen him so distraught about anyone . he 's been walking through a self - made hell ever since . and it gets worse because jerry drove our mother away . she never wants to see him again , she does n't want to talk to him . and he lost me . irina : yet , here you are . jax : yeah , well , it 's in my nature to protect my family when they 're being threatened . but that does n't mean i want jerry in my life . i do n't . jerry will never be an uncle to my kids . he 'll never win the good graces of my wife . jerry walked out of that torture chamber alive minus everything else that made it worth living , so you understand -- in a way , you 've already won . irina : you know , you possess something jerry does n't -- the purity of spirit , and that 's beautiful . that 's how i know jerry could never truly lose you . your heart is too big to shut him out . and if i know that , jerry does , too . and when he 's forced to witness the death of his younger , beloved brother , he will feel the same pain i felt when he shattered my heart ! make no mistake -- jerry will pay , according to plan .

[ scene_break ] lulu : can i ask you a personal question ? jason : yeah . lulu : you probably wo n't answer . you 'll probably just shut down the way that you do . carly says it 's because you feel too much . jason : you know , carly says a lot of things . lulu : yeah , i think she 's right . i think that you do n't let yourself show how you feel , because if you did , then you would drown in it . i mean , you have this baby that you love , that you hardly ever see , and when you do , everyone 's talking about how he 's lucky 's son . it has to kill you . jason : yeah , i just want -- you know , i want jake to be happy . lulu : yeah , me , too . that 's why i 'm starting to wonder if elizabeth 's plan is really going to work . i mean , lucky 's humiliated and furious , and he has every right to feel those things . but it does n't make for a happy home environment . and elizabeth 's not even fighting back -- which is okay , because she does n't want to be a hypocrite , but who wants a mom that 's suffering in silence , and a dad that 's furious and trying to pretend that everything 's okay ? which does not mean that i am trying to tell anybody what to do . i just think that it 's sad that everybody 's good intentions led to this . which leads me to my personal question . jason : i thought you forgot you were going to ask one . lulu : do you love elizabeth ? because i think that she loves you . jason : you were right before . um -- we just -- you know , we have to figure this whole thing out . spinelli : blond one ? huh . warmest greetings . what brings you to our humble abode ? lulu : i , um , just wanted to tell jason that i 'm finished telling him what to do about the baby and everything else . spinelli : oh . well , that 's very gracious of you . huh . although , i have no -- no doubts that stone cold is grateful for your discretion on the subject of his -- of his progeny 's true parentage , and , you know , his -- his silence , however misguided , was -- jason : spinelli -- spinelli -- spinelli : sorry . you go ahead . jason : i appreciate the concern . i do , from both of you . and i promise whatever happens , i 'm going to do the best that i can for jake .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 've given my relationship with lucky so many chances , and every time we run smack into another roadblock . maybe we 're not meant to be . and if that 's true , if it really is the end , then i need to be honest and look at what direction i want my life to take . and in the spirit of honestly , i have to admit that i 've always wondered what would 've happened with me and jason if i 'd given it more of a chance . maybe now 's the time .

[ scene_break ] jax : be honest . what do you really expect to get out of this ole revenge plot ? do you think it 's going to make up for the past or make you feel better ? irina : i expect jerry to suffer unspeakable pain while watching you die , the way he did n't suffer when he thought i died . jax : no , you 're wrong -- jerry did suffer . jerry lost his mind . that drove him to put himself at the center of a hostage crisis . yeah , there was a standoff with a swat team and police , and jerry set off explosives and it did n't end too well for jerry or the hostages . look , when my brother first told me about you , he told me how much you were in love . then he told me how he thought he caused your death . i 've never seen him so distraught about anyone . he 's been walking through a self - made hell ever since . and it gets worse because jerry drove our mother away . she never wants to see him again , she does n't want to talk to him . and he lost me . irina : yet , here you are . jax : yeah , well , it 's in my nature to protect my family when they 're being threatened . but that does n't mean i want jerry in my life . i do n't . jerry will never be an uncle to my kids . he 'll never win the good graces of my wife . jerry walked out of that torture chamber alive minus everything else that made it worth living , so you understand -- in a way , you 've already won . irina : you know , you possess something jerry does n't -- the purity of spirit , and that 's beautiful . that 's how i know jerry could never truly lose you . your heart is too big to shut him out . and if i know that , jerry does , too . and when he 's forced to witness the death of his younger , beloved brother , he will feel the same pain i felt when he shattered my heart ! make no mistake -- jerry will pay , according to plan .

[ customs officer sighs ] customs officer : i give you polite apologies , but your domestic problems can not concern me . i must call department superiors , perhaps have you sent back to united states . carly : no , no , no -- wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , no ! you ca n't do that . okay , look , you got to be reasonable here . i do n't even want to stay in your country very long -- i do n't , okay ? i just want to find my husband and make him pay for what he 's done to me . i ca n't deal with the red tape , all right ? i ca n't . he knows i 'm following him . look . if you let me leave here and you tell me whether or not my husband has been through the customs office in the past 24 hours -- look at that . that would be yours -- cash on the line . customs officer : you ask for information i can not give . and now that you attempt to make bribery , you are restricted from leaving this office .

[ scene_break ] lulu : i actually came over to apologize . jason : for what ? lulu : how obnoxious i 've been about jake , telling you what to do with your own child , like i have any right to make that decision . jason : you did n't ask to know the truth and then i 'm actually the one who asked you to keep it a secret , so -- lulu : well , the more that i live with this , the more i realize that there are no good and bad people . nobody 's perfect . fights happen , people get hurt and angry and they lash out . people make stupid mistakes and they end up hurting themselves or the people that they love or both . you and elizabeth had your reasons for sleeping together . and you had your reasons for keeping it a secret , too . and when elizabeth lied in court and said that lucky was jake 's real father , she had her reasons for that , too . jason : i was being tried for murder -- not a great time to announce that i 'm the father . lulu : exactly . jason : yeah . lulu : so , you guys are all adults , so you get to choose . i just hope that whatever happens -- i was going to say i hope that everyone comes out of it okay , but i guess that 's impossible , is n't it ? somebody has to lose .

[ scene_break ] lulu : can i ask you a personal question ? jason : yeah . lulu : you probably wo n't answer . you 'll probably just shut down the way that you do . carly says it 's because you feel too much . jason : you know , carly says a lot of things . lulu : yeah , i think she 's right . i think that you do n't let yourself show how you feel , because if you did , then you would drown in it . i mean , you have this baby that you love , that you hardly ever see , and when you do , everyone 's talking about how he 's lucky 's son . it has to kill you . jason : yeah , i just want -- you know , i want jake to be happy . lulu : yeah , me , too . that 's why i 'm starting to wonder if elizabeth 's plan is really going to work . i mean , lucky 's humiliated and furious , and he has every right to feel those things . but it does n't make for a happy home environment . and elizabeth 's not even fighting back -- which is okay , because she does n't want to be a hypocrite , but who wants a mom that 's suffering in silence , and a dad that 's furious and trying to pretend that everything 's okay ? which does not mean that i am trying to tell anybody what to do . i just think that it 's sad that everybody 's good intentions led to this . which leads me to my personal question . jason : i thought you forgot you were going to ask one . lulu : do you love elizabeth ? because i think that she loves you . jason : you were right before . um -- we just -- you know , we have to figure this whole thing out . spinelli : blond one ? huh . warmest greetings . what brings you to our humble abode ? lulu : i , um , just wanted to tell jason that i 'm finished telling him what to do about the baby and everything else . spinelli : oh . well , that 's very gracious of you . huh . although , i have no -- no doubts that stone cold is grateful for your discretion on the subject of his -- of his progeny 's true parentage , and , you know , his -- his silence , however misguided , was -- jason : spinelli -- spinelli -- spinelli : sorry . you go ahead . jason : i appreciate the concern . i do , from both of you . and i promise whatever happens , i 'm going to do the best that i can for jake . [ scene_break ] sam : i have been feeling really guilty all these months knowing that something more than friendship was going on between the two of them . lucky , there were so many times where i wanted to tell you . i just -- i really wish i had . lucky : you know what ? do n't -- do n't blame yourself . you know what ? i ca n't imagine the kind of pressure they put you under to be quiet . sam : um -- lucky : ahem . sam : okay , look , it was a little bit more than that . my own selfishness played a part big - time . lucky : how so ? sam : okay , well , i was kind of afraid that if you found out that jason and elizabeth slept together , you would walk out on her and then that would clear the way for the two of them to be together . i am -- i am so sorry , lucky . i was protecting my own screwed - up relationship , and i know , you can say it -- you probably think i am the biggest loser right now . lucky : you 're not the loser . you did n't do anything wrong . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 've given my relationship with lucky so many chances , and every time we run smack into another roadblock . maybe we 're not meant to be . and if that 's true , if it really is the end , then i need to be honest and look at what direction i want my life to take . and in the spirit of honestly , i have to admit that i 've always wondered what would 've happened with me and jason if i 'd given it more of a chance . maybe now 's the time . [ scene_break ] spinelli : may i offer assistance with the putting away of the armaments ? jason : no , i can -- i can handle it . should n't you stay away from guns ? spinelli : not a bad idea . [ spinelli chuckles ] spinelli : um -- wow , there 's a lot of room in there -- extra space without fair samantha 's lovely things . jason : yeah , there is . spinelli : maybe the extra room need n't go to waste . just a thought . uh , maybe there 's enough room for elizabeth and her little boys .

[ scene_break ] kate : you both can keep talking till you 're gasping for air , but i 'm going to paris , and you ca n't stop me . and by the way , attorney - client privileges are in effect here , so if the cops get wind that i 've left the country , i 'll know who leaked it , and you both can be wearing orange jump suits with me . diane : well , that 's not -- that 's not exactly the way it works , but do n't let reality stop you . sonny : well , you know what ? at least it wo n't be crowded , because i hear lockup clears out for the month of august . kate : wow . sonny : what ? kate : you think that my job is insignificant , do n't you ? you think that `` couture `` is some toy that could disappear tomorrow and no one would even notice . well , let me enlighten you . i have reams of people who depend on me for their livelihood , and that may not be important in your world , but it matters to me . i will not let my work slide because some provincial bureaucrat has decided to go on a power trip . diane : while i appreciate your position , and i do , that is exactly the kind of attitude that 's going to get you convicted . sonny : do n't worry , diane , because i 'm about to step in . kate : oh . meaning ? sonny : meaning i 'm about to teach you a lesson on humility and respect . [ scene_break ] jax : if this is about that caviar i ordered , i can explain . irina : there has been a change in plans . your brother moving faster than i anticipated . jax : he 's close ? irina : in a hotel room on the coast . it wo n't take him long to figure out which ship we are on . and i ca n't risk a rescue effort yet . jax : so the change in plans involves a move ? irina : in part . jax : and what 's the rest ? irina : i now believe it 's safer for me to watch jerry arrive too late and find you already dead .

[ scene_break ] tess : aw , what 's the matter ? does widdle wangston not want to play with fordie - wardy anymore ? ford : what do you care ? you 're getting what you want , right ? tess : and so are you . you got your kid , which , by the way , smells like a fertilizer factory , so you might want to change him before we all pass out from the fumes . ford : ok . tess : where 's , uh , the hot one ? james ? ford : he 's at the hospital with starr . i 'm sorry . did n't you hear that your uncle got shot ? tess : `` mystery sniper sought `` ? this is the greatest news ever ! ford : what kind of a selfish bitch are you ? tess : oh , give me a break . i 'm not talking about the shooting . i mean , todd protected me once . i feel sorry for the poor bastard . ford : you have a funny way of showing it . tess : do n't you see ? his wife is gon na be off her game , and with téa delgado on jessica 's parents ' side , getting your kid is gon na be a lock . [ scene_break ] viki : i 'm trying to buy us some breathing room , so i just dropped off a request for a continuance with the judge 's assistant . nora : a continuance ? viki : well , téa was representing us . of course , todd was shot , so ... nora : oh . she 'll want to be at the hospital with him . viki : i 'm assuming clint is gon na show up with one of his own sharks , but i ca n't take the chance . we have to play this by the book . nora : oh , absolutely . family court can be very tricky to navigate . viki : and i have to make sure that he and i are on the same page going into this hearing . nora : viki , do you trust clint ? viki : ha ha ha ! i do n't know . his increasing metamorphosis into asa is disturbing , to say the least . i mean , even if he did n't physically himself switch those dna samples , obviously he had something to do with it , right ? do you know anything about that ? nora : vimal confessed to tampering with the records . he insists that he acted alone , so we are no longer pursuing clint 's involvement . viki : but there 's something else . nora : i 'm not gon na burden you with this now . viki : nora ! nora , i 'm about to throw my lot in with clint to get custody of our grandson . if he 's involved in something that 's going to affect our future , i need to know about it . nora : i think we should wait until bo gets back . viki : but bo apparently left town all of a sudden . was there some sort of emergency ? nora : bo went to rescue david vickers . [ scene_break ] david : i was -- i was kidnapped at my own wedding , pa ! bo : yeah , i know . david : i was carted off , and i was thrown into a prison in morocco . bo : i know . david : i did n't write that `` dear john `` letter to dorian . i never stopped loving her , pa . i never stopped thinking about her or you or matthew or myself . bo : i know . david : it was all clint . clint kidnapped me . clint 's the one who wrote all those things on my myface page . bo : i know . david : you do ? bo : yeah . yeah . i found out about all of this a couple of days ago , but i know what clint did to you , and with your help , we 're gon na nail him for it . [ scene_break ] viki : rescue david vickers ? from what ? the man is off living the high life somewhere , is n't he ? nora : oh , well , i guess you 're gon na find out about this soon enough , and i think you need to hear it before you become too entrenched with clint again . viki : hear what ? nora : oh , viki , david did n't skip town . he was abducted just before his wedding to dorian -- by clint , who then shipped him out of the country and locked him up in a -- wait for it -- moroccan prison . viki : good god ! why ? nora : because he blamed david for destroying his marriage to kim , so he wanted to punish him . viki : but -- but david 's his nephew . he 's bo 's son ! nora : the other person that he wanted to punish . clint blames bo for stealing me away from him , so he wanted to pay him back by stealing david away from bo . viki : i wish i could say i do n't believe this . frankly , if you told me this a few months ago , i would not have thought clint capable of it , but now ? nora : i know , and i 'm sorry to tell you all this . viki : david has been gone for months . nora : oh , yeah . viki : he 's been in prison all that time ? good lord . how is he ? is he all right ? nora : all i know is bo found david . i have no idea the extent of what he 's been through . [ scene_break ] rex : clint 's going down for torturing david , and you 're going down with him . alex : torturing david ? that 's ridiculous . david : clint is gon na pay . that prison was barbaric . i was cooped up in this rat - infested cell . i did n't see my own image for 8 months ! alex : david 's been living it up here for weeks . he called it his final stop on his road to paradise . david : it was hell . all alone . alex : women around him night and day . david : nothing to eat but yak bones . nothing to drink but gutter water . alex : feasting on caviar and champagne . david : and then i was brought here , and these people started doing all these things to me . alex : working on his tan all day . david : they hosed me down with this orange stuff . alex : having manicures . david : i thought they were gon na rip my fingernails out . pa , how sick do you have to be to do something like that ? bo : i think i know what 's going on here . [ scene_break ] dorian : well , that baby comes with tess . you know , tess over you ? i 've got half a mind -- langston : no , no , no , dorian , please do n't do anything . i know how much you hate ford . i should n't even be talking about this with you . dorian : oh , baby , i do n't . i do n't hate ford . langston : i 'd be talking to starr about this , but she has problems of her own with her father in the hospital . dorian : of course , and rather than go find your trusted friend and cry on her shoulder , you came to seek me out and get a mother 's -- a loving mother 's advice . langston : yeah . let me guess what my loving mother is gon na say . `` blah , blah , blah . he 's not worth all this . `` dorian : no , i 'm not gon na say that . i 'm going to say that you deserve better from any man , and you deserve a lot better than mr. robert ford . [ scene_break ] ford : i , uh , just changed the baby . tess : great . call me when you change him into somebody who does n't cry and wet himself . ford : would you drop with the attitude ? i 'm busting my ass trying to help our son -- tess : hey ! you signed up for this . ford : right . right , and let 's not get into it . we have a custody hearing . we should be getting ready for it . tess : that is the smartest thing that you have said all day . ford : maybe you should change into something a little more ... uh ... tess : what ? ford : just a little more ... tess : please . you love it . ford : no , i really do n't . tess : you look at me like you 're starving , and i 'm the last hamburger in llanview . ford : fine . fine . from now on , we 'll avoid any eye contact , and you can have my noise - canceling headphones so you do n't have to hear me sing to ryder anymore , and i 'll change him faster than you can say baby poo . how does that sound ? tess : what is this ? ford : this is me trying to act like somebody who actually cares about you . tess : well , it 's creepy . ford : i do n't care . this is how -- this is how normal couples act , ok ? and that 's how we need to seem -- normal , ok ? no matter how much we hate each other , that judge has to think that we 're a happy , normal , loving couple who ca n't wait to come home and raise our child together , and that 's what i 'm trying to do . got it ? can you handle this ? tess : it 's gon na be the performance of a lifetime .

[ scene_break ] rama : when your wife and i became friends , we dreamed of marrying handsome princes and living in castles . aubrey 's dream came true . joey : seriously ? aubrey always dreamed of living in a castle ? rama : this is every girl 's dream . joey : yeah . well , i guess that 's why i 'm sort of surprised . aubrey does n't really strike me as every girl . she 's all about pushing boundaries . rama : this is somewhat new . joey : so what was she like in boarding school ? rama : well , the aubrey wentworth i knew was quite studious . joey : really ? rama : she was the type who read `` jane eyre `` for fun at 10 years old . she was quiet and terribly shy . joey : w - wait . shy ? rama : mm - hmm . she could n't even talk to a boy without stammering . joey : ha ! well , obviously , that has changed . rama : yep . she 's a completely different person now . joey : yeah , but i 'm trying to picture aubs as this shy little girl . rama : you know what ? i have our yearbook with us . joey : really ? rama : yeah . i found it when i was forced to move from our spacious apartment into a small room after my husband was imprisoned . i brought it to show aubrey . i thought she might appreciate a reminder of the girl she once was . [ scene_break ] cutter : do you really think clint killed that man ? aubrey : joey had just gotten back from his aunt nora 's , the d.a . she and her husband , the police commissioner , are hell - bent on getting proof of clint 's crimes , starting with the kidnapping of nora herself . [ scene_break ] viki : i have to say , i 'm very happy for dorian . i told her at the time i did n't think that david had just run away . i thought there was something else going on , some other reason , but then -- i do n't know -- he posted all that stuff on his myface page . nora : clint posted all that stuff on his myface page . viki : and all this time , dorian has felt so betrayed . she 's been alone and unhappy . this is going to change everything for her . [ scene_break ] dorian : you deserve better than this because you are better than this . you deserve a man who puts you first above everything else , a man who wants nothing more than to share his life with you . langston : yeah . well , that 's what i thought ford wanted . he promised me that we would be in this together , but then he went off and acted all alone . dorian : oh , typical , just so typical , and it 's ... just like david -- david putting his own selfish needs before the needs of the woman he supposedly loves . langston : no , dorian . that 's not what this is like . ford put his baby ahead of me . david went off to party . [ scene_break ] alex : it 's been party , party , party all the time . rex : bo , you will not believe the song this woman has been singing , that david has been here having a great time . bo : yeah . well , that 's what clint 's like us to believe , and he got you to help him set up this credible scene . alex : no . bo , no . this is totally -- there 's no scene . it 's the truth . bo : no . i 've heard enough of this , alex . david : pa , listen . it does n't matter . the only thing that matters now is that i 'm safe . you came , and you got me . bo : yep . david : rex , i do n't know what to say to you . rex : what did bo tell you ? david : he did n't have to tell me anything . you 're here . you trotted halfway across the globe and back just to help bo find me , and in the past , i 've treated you like a bad hair day . i 've been very competitive for pa 's attention in the past . i apologize . any way i can make that up to you ? rex : well , i 'm the one that should be doing the making up . david : what do you mean ? rex : i 've known about what happened to you for months . david : oh , clint told me that . i did n't believe a word of that . i mean , you would n't hide the fact that bo 's firstborn was languishing in lockup . rex : it 's true . i 've known that you were in that prison , and i did n't tell bo . david : you knew ? alex : could somebody please untie me ? rex : i wanted to tell bo where you were , ok , but clint was blackmailing me . he was threatening me , and he was threatening gigi 's life . david : so instead , you let him ruin mine ? rex : i 'm sorry . agh ! bo ! help ! bo : oh , i think my son has got things under control . rex : agh ... [ scene_break ] dorian : there most certainly is a parallel between david and ford . why , both of them put their own selfish needs ahead of the needs of the women that they profess to love . langston : i do n't know . i think i 'm being too hard on ford . dorian : you did the right thing breaking up with him . stay strong . stick to your guns . langston : guns ? i do n't have any guns . what does that even mean ? dorian : principles , resolve . you can not accept anything less than what you want or need , and i lied to you before . i do hate ford , although i have to admit , he 's done you a favor now , because you are free to find the right man . langston : then who , exactly , would that be ? dorian : you 'll know him when you see him . oh , yes . there 's no sense mourning for mr. wrong when mr . right , he may be right outside the door waiting for you . [ scene_break ] nora : dorian does n't know anything about david . viki : she does n't ? nora : mm . bo needs to approach this very cautiously . viki : oh . oh , i see . yes . you do n't want dorian to take clint on . nora : listen . the only reason why i 'm telling you is because , as you say , you 're about to throw your lot in with clint , and i think you deserve to make an informed decision . viki : well , i thank you very , very much for the information , obviously , but honestly , nora , i do n't know what i can do about it now . [ scene_break ] aubrey : best - case scenario -- clint 's crimes will catch up to him , and we wo n't have to lay a finger to get him thrown off that board . cutter : we really may just get everything we wanted . clint : no , no . please do n't let me stop you . do whatever you want . go have sex in the booth , for all i care , because exposing my son 's wife and her brother for the money - hungry grifters that they actually are is low on my priority list today , but then again , it does n't really matter because eventually , joey is gon na figure it all out on his own . [ scene_break ] joey : so come on , rama . let 's see it . rama : i 'm afraid aubrey would kill me if i showed it to you . joey : why ? what , was she , like , a geek or something ? oh , glasses ? oh , braces ? rama : she looks completely different now . joey : aw , come on . how bad can it be ? rama : you ca n't imagine . joey : see , now i really want to see it . come on , rama . this is gon na be something i can use to blackmail my wife . rama : i think i should wait for aubrey and see if she wants you to see this picture or not . joey : all right . well , she should 've been back by now , but she did go on a little bit of a shopping spree . rama : a shopping spree ? joey : mm - hmm . rama : how nice for her . well , joey , you know , if you want to see this picture -- joey : really ? aubrey : rama ! what are you doing here ? rama : i came to see you . joey : well , here she is . hi , honey . how you doing ? aubrey : mm . good . i think rama and i have some catching up to do . joey : ok . all right . well , i will leave you two ladies to talk . aubrey : ok . rama , it 's so nice to see you . what the hell was that about ? rama : i send my own husband to prison just so that your father - in - law would not tell joey who you really are . you owe me . aubrey : do you think i 've forgotten that ? rama : you said you were gon na share the wealth . here you are , living in a mansion , going on shopping sprees while i 've been forced into a small room by myself now that vimal is in jail . aubrey : this house is clint 's . i do n't have anything of my own , and cutter and i have not been able to get the money yet . rama : well , you better find a way to get it today , or your new husband is gon na see this . [ scene_break ] nora : if i could only find an airtight connection between clint and eddie ford -- clint : good morning , ladies . viki : speak of the devil . nora : why do n't i go check on that continuance for you ? viki : oh , thank you , nora . nora : sure . viki : thank you . clint : well , i assume that she was giving you an earful . viki : oh , yes . well , she did tell me everything that she and bo think you 're involved in . oh , my god , clint . clint : viki , it 's a load of nonsense . viki : is it ? know what ? i do n't want to think about it . i do n't even want to discuss it . i just want to make sure nothing jeopardizes our case to get custody of our grandson . clint : well , neither do i . viki : then let 's just get through this day , ok ... and let 's hope like hell that tess and ford do n't know what bo and nora think . [ scene_break ] tess : [ stomps ] ta da ford : that 's more like it . tess : thank god because i draw the line at mom jeans . ford : you look good , tess . tess : ew ! i should 've figured this was your thing . you 're such a pervert . ford : whoa , hey , listen . nothing can go wrong in that courtroom today , remember ? i did n't lose langston just to lose my son . [ scene_break ] langston : yeah . maybe you 're right . i mean , how could ford and i have an equal relationship when he would n't even consult me before making a radical decision that would affect both of us ? dorian : precisely . langston : i know that he has a kid that obviously means a lot to him , but to marry someone else , someone with that many issues ? dorian : my darling , what you need to do is look forward , and not look back . you need to start afresh and be able to attract a new man into your life . langston : kind of like you have ? dorian : heh . [ scene_break ] bo : get out of here . alex : this is my room . bo : alex -- alex : all right . david : how could you do this to me ? bo : ok . that 's enough . enough . rex : thanks . thanks . bo : yeah , yeah , yeah . you deserved it , balsom . there 's someone else we have to go after , so look . you save this rage . you save it for clint . david : right . clint . i am gon na bring clint down for what he did to me -- kidnapping me , ruining my wedding , my wedding ! well , and dorian 's , too . dorian . i 've got to talk to dorian . bo : no , no , no . let 's get you out of here before -- david : no , no , pa . i got to do it right now . dorian has to know that i 'm all right .

[ scene_break ] dorian : there most certainly is a parallel between david and ford . why , both of them put their own selfish needs ahead of the needs of the women that they profess to love . langston : i do n't know . i think i 'm being too hard on ford . dorian : you did the right thing breaking up with him . stay strong . stick to your guns . langston : guns ? i do n't have any guns . what does that even mean ? dorian : principles , resolve . you can not accept anything less than what you want or need , and i lied to you before . i do hate ford , although i have to admit , he 's done you a favor now , because you are free to find the right man . langston : then who , exactly , would that be ? dorian : you 'll know him when you see him . oh , yes . there 's no sense mourning for mr. wrong when mr . right , he may be right outside the door waiting for you .

'cause i 've been there . nick : well , of course . you always dump first , do n't you ? you dump them first . tell me . huh ? felicia : well , sometimes i 'm not quick enough on the draw . nick : you probably had a lot of relationships , have n't you ? felicia : well -- not for a while . nick : okay . how long ? felicia : well , there was someone , but when i got really sick -- well , he could n't handle it . so , since then i 've figured , you know , what 's the point of feeling anything , wanting anything ? you know ? it 's just more to lose . nick : what about now ? ridge : that 's it . feel that brazilian beat . [ brooke laughs ] ridge : how do you like that ? yes siree . he likes it , he likes it . okay , close your eyes . close your eyes , see us lounging in rio . visualize that , okay ? just keep your eyes closed , visualize . visualize us walking on that street in front of panama beach . hear those sounds , the music coming out of all the shops and oh , oh , the smells . can you smell that ? brooke : what is that ? ridge : that is fried plantains with cinnamon and honey ! brooke : and that 's not all . this is a feast ! catherine : want me to take r.j. ? ridge : no , i think we 're going to keep him with us , thank you . thank you , catherine . right , you just try one of these . try that . how is that , huh ? brooke : mm ! mm , heavenly . ridge : fasten your seatbelt , missy , because this is only the start . i 'm going to take you places you 've only imagined . brooke : well , we 've been to brazil . where do we go next ? ridge : wherever your heart desires . brooke : why do n't we ask r.j. ? if he wakes up . do you want to go to india ? oh , i know . maybe belgium , huh ? not belgium . ah , greece . yeah , yeah , that 's it . i think he likes the colors . ridge : he 's got his daddy 's eye for beauty . brooke : and his mother 's love of the ocean . ridge : but that 's not all greece has to offer . no , no , no . brooke : stuffed grape leaves . ridge : mm - hmm . try that . brooke : mm . ridge : mm . so fresh , you can taste the mediterranean breeze . mm , mm , mm . but greece would n't be complete without a trip to the beautiful island of santorini and some kefalotiri . brooke : from miklos ' farm ? ridge : he sends his best . try this one . brooke : mm . ridge : yes . mm , mm , mm . now , julian sent a little something along as well . we 're talking belgium , we 're talking flourless torte made from the finest dark chocolate in the world ! brooke : ohh ! now that is my favorite part about traveling . ridge : try this .

faith : um , yeah . nick : all right . i know , uh ... i know your mom had to hold the fort down here , otherwise , she would have been there to pick you up , too . i 'm sure she would have had a sign , you know , and jumped up and down and embarrassed you , but not me . 'cause i 'm cool , like a boss . sharon : faith ! faith : mom ! oh , my god ! sharon : yes ! oh , i missed you so much ! faith : oh , i missed you , too ! nick : i guess she reserved all her hugs for mom . sharon : [ laughs ] look at you ! you 've gotten so tall ! you 're gon na need all new clothes for school ! i bet you 're glad to be home . faith : yeah , i guess . sharon : you guess ? why would you say it like that ? chelsea : i just got a call from the movers who were supposed to deliver faith 's new bedroom set to my place . victor : mm - hmm . chelsea : you know , nick and i wanted it to be a surprise for her when she came home from camp . funny enough , they said that they were turned away . by you . victor : yeah . they were . chelsea : please do n't play games . not now . that was a gift from me . i designed that set . it was a gift for her . victor : really ? it was n't meant as a bribe , so that faith would tolerate the relationship between you and her father ? hmm ? i 'm not playing games . this is not about some damn furniture . this is about the well - being of my granddaughter . ashley : well , i have to say , mother 's report is -- it 's incredibly impressive . jack : she 's sharp , she 's fast . you know how concerned i was about all the errors on her first draft . this is very clean . impeccable . ashley : i know , i guess decades of leading a multinational really hones your skills , huh ? jack : mother is suddenly an asset at jabot . not without irony , given that she could n't have cared less when we were kids . ashley : jabot was not her priority , and , uh , neither were we . jack : maybe we should discuss an expanded role for her . ashley : are you changing the subject ? jack : because it 's obviously upsetting you . ashley : look , our mother had this incredible husband . our father was generous and loving and would have forgiven her anything . so , yeah , sometimes i still do n't understand why that was n't good enough for her . jack : i have asked myself that same question countless times . you know what i finally realized ? it does n't matter . ashley : well , maybe not to you , but you 're not the one who 's had to live with a lie because of it . abby : designdate outperformed all of the other dating apps that went live in the same month . dina : well , he certainly has the brains , he 's handsome , and he 's charming . zack really is the whole package . abby : yeah . he really is a good guy . dina : are you two still socializing away from work ? abby : well , as a matter of fact , he just helped me move . dina : you know , honey , i always did admire a man who was n't afraid to get his hands dirty . [ laughs ] abby : dina ! [ laughs ] phyllis : do you see how amazing mornings can be when we do n't have to rush to work right at sunrise ? billy : no complaints from me . phyllis : i think i 'm gon na send neil and devon a thank - you note for that bridge loan to brash & sassy ! it means more play and less work . so , you mentioned you want to hit back at jack . you care to tell me what you have in mind ? additional sponsorship billy : hitting back at jack ? nah . phyllis : you just said ... billy : i was just making noise because my brother ticked me off , raising the rent on brash & sassy ! knowing that we were cash - poor . phyllis : so you were just blowing steam ? billy : i have many ways to blow off steam . phyllis : oh . you do n't say . billy : i will say that i 'm glad brash & sassy ! did n't end up in bed with hochman , in a business sense , that is . phyllis : that would have been a horrible idea . billy : the guy kneecaps companies like a mob boss for a living . i 'm still not sure why victoria even considered taking a loan from that guy . he 's not that smooth . phyllis : you know , maybe they actually really liked each other . maybe his motives were pure . unlike yours . billy : can you tell me why you 're defending him ? dina : zack helped you move ? does that mean you now have a corner office ? abby : [ laughs ] well , it -- it was n't for work , actually . dina : oh ? well ... how did that come about ? abby : i moved to the newman ranch . dina : you did ? you 're living at victor 's ? abby : i am , yeah . it was all rather sudden , you know , it kind of was complicated , but , um ... okay , nick moved out of his place , and dad offered it to me , and although it is strange to live in my brother 's home , i -- i think it 's a good sign , right ? that dad wants me closer , more a part of the newmans . dina : victor is a man who does n't like being alone . abby : so you think that 's why dad asked me ? to fill up the empty space ? victor : i 'm sure you think a new bed would dazzle faith so much that she would forget how two upended her life while she was in camp . chelsea : no , upending faith 's life was actually your choice . i mean , when you kicked your son out of his home , you in turn kicked your grandchildren out , too . that 's why nick came to me about moving in together . you think we would have chosen to do it like this otherwise ? victor : does n't seem you had too much choice in it , did you ? chelsea : no , that 's not what i meant . i -- [ sighs ] nick wants to provide his children with a loving , stable home . that 's what we intend to give them . i 'm just wondering why you are always trying to make things so difficult for him . victor : do i need to remind you that nicholas turned his back on me ? do you think i 'll allow him to turn faith against me , as well ? chelsea : he would n't do that . victor : he can hardly hide his animosity towards his father . do you honestly think he 's singing my praises now to faith ? chelsea : do you hear the way you 're talking about your own son ? did n't you learn anything from your war with adam ? victor : chelsea , i 'm not concerned with nicholas anymore . i 'm concerned with faith . this is where she came when she found the situation with her parents unbearable . this is where she will come when she finds it difficult to live with you and nicholas . this is her sanctuary . it always will be her sanctuary . sharon : you 're not all that happy to be home with us ? faith : no , i am . sharon : oh , okay . well , what is it , then ? faith : um , i just had so much fun at camp , and i miss my friends already . sharon : mm , those are memories you 're gon na cherish forever . nick : all right ! lemonade after a nice long , hot bus ride . faith : thanks . so , is christian at home ? did he miss me ? nick : he sure did . and you 're gon na see him soon . but , first , i think we should have a little talk , you know , as a family . you , me , and your mom . there were some changes while you were at camp . i think you know how much chelsea means to me . i know you love being a big sister to connor and christian . they mean a lot to you , too , right ? sharon : and you 're so good with them . nick : and when you put two families together like that and they enjoy being around each other , it kinds makes sense to not be apart . so while you were at camp , i ... i decided to move in with chelsea at her penthouse . faith : you decided to move when i was away at camp , without telling me first ? nick : well , yeah , you know , it was n't something i wanted to tell you over the phone or by e - mail . look , i know you 've spent a lot of time at chelsea 's , and it 's great place to live . plus , there 's a surprise waiting for you . it was all chelsea 's idea . faith : what about mom ? sharon : sweetheart , you 're still gon na come to our house on my days , just like always . faith : and while i 'm there , can i see grandpa ? sharon : i do n't see why not . nick : yeah . yeah . if that 's what you want . faith : i do . grandpa needs the company now that grandma 's moved out . nick : how do you know about that ? sharon : faith . daddy asked you -- how did you find out that grandma moved out ? faith : um ... mom , you 're not the only person i talked to when i was at camp . sharon : i just assumed that she told you so that it would n't be such a shock . nick : you know , i know it 's a lot to take in , all these changes , and that 's why your mom and i wanted to get together with you and kind of help you make sense of it . so , you know , what do you think ? how do you feel about us moving in with chelsea ? faith : i loved our old house . i could walk back and forth from mom 's , the main house . plus , there 's my pony . nick : yeah . that 's true . faith : but this could be really good , too , i guess . nick : look , i think it 's gon na be awesome . you know , you 're gon na get a chance to boss around the littles , you 're gon na be in town , which means you 're gon na be closer to your friends and your school , and with that many people around , you are never gon na be lonely . sharon : okay , well , uh , how about that triple - chocolate brownie ? nick : yeah , you , uh ... you better get it to go . faith : okay . nick : thanks for helping me with that . sharon : yeah , that -- that went better than i expected . nick : it 's gon na take some time , you know ? and there will be other things that come up , but i promise you , i will be prepared . sharon : well , i can help out also , when she 's staying at my place . nick : yeah , just promise me that you wo n't let her spend as much time with my dad . faith : [ sighs ] sharon : okay ! nick : okay , uh , you want to get out of here and go check out your new digs ? faith : sure . sharon : all right . sweetie , i 'm so glad you 're home . i missed you so much . faith : i missed you , too , mom . sharon : okay . nick : all right , let 's do it . faith : okay . see you later , mom . sharon : bye ! nick : bye . sharon : hi . i was just saying hello and goodbye to my daughter , faith , who 's just come back from camp . scott : and you do n't want her to know about us . abby : it 's true . dad has chased off all of his other children . i 'm the only one who wants to work with him . i 'm definitely the only one who wants to live near him . dina : i understand that nikki has moved out , too . abby : do you think he 's just stroking my ego to keep me around ? dina : victor is a master manipulator , dear . now , that 's a fact , not a judgment . abby : no , everything dad does is for effect . i think he hired scott grainger just to drive me crazy , which makes me work harder , which i guess is n't such a bad thing . i mean , dad 's pleased with everything i 've accomplished . dina : keep in mind , dear , that victor praises or criticizes to get the reaction he wants . abby : [ laughs ] and he does both on a regular basis . dina : but do n't forget , my darling , just how valuable you really are . abby : you know , it 's complicated , being a newman and then being an abbott on top of that ... dina : oh , i know . i know . abby : do you still consider yourself to be a part of the abbott family ? dina : well , i did n't for many years , but i 'm trying now , hoping to be . abby : you know , there 's something that i 've been wanting to ask you . dina : well , ask me anything . abby : it 's rather personal . dina : oh , well , it 's a good thing that we 're related . abby : you know when we had that spa day , and you said that you had lots of stories to tell ... dina : yes . abby : well , there 's one in particular that i want to hear . why did you leave grandpa and the family ? ashley : i was telling ravi that i think you remember everything clearer because i was so young and probably blocked it out . jack : i was old enough to see it all . certainly a lot more than mother knew i saw . i was there the night dad found out that mother was having an affair . john : brent davis ? for god 's sake , i take golf lessons from the man ! so does jack ! how could you do this ? dina : oh , what do you care ? you have your company to love . i 'm home alone with three kids . i need more , john ! i need so much more than this . ashley : jackie . i 'm sorry . i never knew . jack : yeah . it was just one of many fights . fights that just kept going until , finally , she was gone . anyway , enough about that . ancient history . how about something lighter ? you still have n't told me about your trip to the lake with ravi . ashley : oh , yeah , there 's not much to tell . you know how it is up there -- jack : there 's the man himself . i was just asking ashley about your time at the lake . what 'd you think ? ravi : um ... ravi : i had a blast . the spot on the lake is very peaceful . jack : well , as much time as you spend behind a computer , i can only imagine what an education it was to be in the great outdoors . ashley : well , ravi is actually quite a sailor . jack : you took the boat out , too ? nice ! ashley : the weather was perfect , and so was the company . jack : any other adventures you care to share ? ravi : i finally got to paddleboard . yep . ashley : and we also -- well , he -- forged for mushrooms . [ laughs ] you made a great risotto . jack : so , cooking , sailing , foraging -- you 're a man of many talents . ravi : just putting those merit badges to use . [ laughter ] jack : well , i got to say , i 'm seeing you in a whole new light . how about you , ashley ? has your perspective changed , as well ? ashley : ravi and i are n't focusing on recreation right now , we 're focusing on work because we 're at work , so ... i guess we should go to my office . ravi : yeah , that sounds like a great idea . jack . [ clears throat ] abby : i heard there was another man , and that you were done with marriage and family and you moved to paris . but that 's all i 've been able to put together over the years . dina : that 's true , but it was much more complicated than that . abby : which part ? dina : all of it . i did betray your grandfather . i broke his heart . and our marriage . abby : well , did you love this other man ? dina : [ laughs ] oh , no , no . he -- he was charming and handsome . he was a golf pro -- catnip for a lonely , lonely unhappy woman . abby : so you did n't leave grandpa to be with him ? dina : i left john because i was unhappy and unfulfilled . and so , to paris . abby : did you ever see this golf pro again ? dina : brent davis ? yes , i did , briefly when i came back here in the ' 80s . abby : did you ever tell my mom or uncle jack any of this ? dina : they knew all about that part of my life , a part that , uh , i deeply , sadly regret . abby : even now ? dina : some mistakes live inside you forever . phyllis : i am not defending anybody , especially ben hochman . billy : sure sounds like you 're giving him the benefit of the doubt . phyllis : if victoria was embarrassed , that is on her . she got with a guy , changed her mind , and made a scene in a public place ! billy : a scene that ended up on television . phyllis : she had morning - after regrets in the middle of a hotel . billy : actually , it was in the hallway and nobody deserves that and it was n't a cool thing for hilary to do . phyllis : okay , hilary was being hilary . god knows what victoria was doing . billy : okay . if you want me to blame the mother of my children for this , it 's not gon na happen . billy : speaking of mothers ... that is one hypocritical bitch sitting right over there . billy : i hear she works at jabot now . that must be fun for you two . phyllis : jack took her on as a pity hire . she 's a former mogul , so she 's feeling useful now . billy : so it 's all for show ? phyllis : oh , no , no , no , no . she 's part of the company . she has her own office , you know ? she has no problem acting like she 's running the place , although it has been entertaining to see the way she 's bossing gloria around . ravi -- complete saint , dealing with all her tech issues , setting her new laptop up on the jabot system ... jack better watch his back , or that snake of a mother of his might steal the company right out from under him . chelsea : you 've thought about this a lot -- us being a family . nick : look , if you need more time , i understand . this -- this was your home with adam . i 'm sure you thought that you and adam would be taking connor to his first day of kindergarten , not me and you . so if this is too much , if it 's too soon , just say the word , and we 'll pretend like this conversation never happened . [ door opens ] nick : look who 's home ! chelsea : hi ! faith , welcome home ! oh , it 's so good to see you ! oh ! i ca n't tell how excited i am to have another girl in the house , you know ? and , you know , connor just adores you . i know it 's gon na take some time , but hopefully you eventually feel at home here . faith : [ chuckles nervously ] nick : check it out ! you already scored a spot on the piano . chelsea : yeah ! yeah ! faith : oh . cool . um ... chelsea : yeah . faith : could i see my room ? nick : that is the surprise ! chelsea : wait , not -- uh , well , we wanted to plan the surprise , but the timing did n't quite work out . there 's been a bit of a delay . faith : um , that 's okay . chelsea : you know , why do n't i show you upstairs ? faith : i can find it . chelsea : right ! okay . no worries . it 's the second door on the right . faith : thanks . chelsea : okay . welcome back ! um , so , the movers never showed . nick : [ sighs ] let me guess , dad would n't let them take the furniture . chelsea : yeah , i went to talk to him , i tried to convince him , you know , how important this was to us , and to me , but he did n't care . nick : [ sighs ] i 'm so sorry . you should n't have to deal with that . it 's my problem , not yours . chelsea : this is the second time i 've tried to redo her room , and i just feel like now i 've failed twice . nick : oh , no . hey . hey . no . you 're making her feel loved and welcome , and that is the most important thing , right ? and faith is a champ , you know ? i think she wants this to work just as much as we do . faith : may i speak to my grandfather , please ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : would n't that be something ? dina staging a coup to oust jack from his own company ? it 'd serve the condescending tool right , hiring her just to give her busy work . phyllis : i was n't completely serious . jack would never let anybody take jabot away from him ever again . billy : well , no company is immune to problems . look at brash & sassy ! phyllis : so why is n't victoria dealing with them ? billy : she is . she got a bridge loan . phyllis : she has n't replaced cane or juliet . now , the marketplace is full of talent . hire someone already . billy : she got screwed over by cane and juliet , okay ? she 's being cautious . it 's not a bad thing . she 's working with a headhunter right now and should have their positions filled very soon . phyllis : mm - hmm . unless she does n't want them to . billy : okay , listen ... i know that it drives you crazy , the amount that i 've been working . but that 's all about to change . the pressure has been relieved . more time for you , for us ... ... for this . phyllis : i 'm gon na hold you to it . meanwhile , let 's get back to work , all right ? billy : you go ahead . i got a couple things i got to take care of before i head in . phyllis : all right , but if you 're gon na have to pick up victoria 's dry cleaning ... billy : that 's enough out of you . phyllis : see you later . billy : bye . abby : thank you . dina : you 're welcome . billy : well , good morning , ladies . dina : hello , billy . billy : look at you two rays of sunshine . abby : aww . if he 's flirting , that means he wants something . billy : oh ! abby : you behave . i got to take off . dina : well , thank you for having this talk . abby : you have no idea how much it means to me . dina : and to me , too . anytime . because at my age , i have nothing left to hide . mwah ! abby : love you . dina : i love you . abby : bye . billy : see ya . you know , it 's got to be really nice to be able to catch up with your granddaughter like that . dina : oh , you have no idea . it means all the world to me now that i 'm here in genoa city . billy : [ chuckles ] i 'm heading back to jabot . would you like a lift ? dina : oh , well , thank you , but if you do n't mind , i -- i left a few things in my suite . billy : not at all . dina : well , there we go . sharon : of course i want faith to meet you . it 's just ... she has a lot on her hands today , you know , going from camp to her new living situation with nick at chelsea 's penthouse . it 's a new home , new room , new family dynamic . you know , i -- it was too much to throw you into the mix today . scott : yeah , i heard about abby moving into nick 's old place , and i guess i had n't thought about how that might impact faith . sharon : well , she 's so strong , but she 's just seen too much for a child her age . you know , parents apart more than they were together , not to mention step - parents , and nick 's house -- it was just always a constant in faith 's life , and now that 's gone . scott : and , uh , how 's she handling that ? sharon : she 's ... she 's fine , but she 's subdued . and i know my daughter . she 's not telling us everything . a child her age needs continuity and stability . scott : you know , i do n't know faith , but it 's obvious that she has a lot of people in her life who love and support her . that makes all the difference , no matter where she lives . victor : faith , sweetheart , are you all right ? faith : i 'm at chelsea 's . i hope it 's okay that i 'm calling you , grandpa . victor : of course you can call me . what 's on your mind ? faith : i 'm really glad you came to camp last night to tell me about dad moving in with chelsea . i would n't have wanted to find out after getting back . victor : what did you tell them ? faith : i did n't mention that we talked . i did n't lie , though . i just did n't tell them everything . victor : well , just know , whatever you say , i 'll back you up , okay ? faith : they keep calling this my home . but it isn't . there was supposed to be a surprise , but that did n't happen . victor : are you trying to make the best of it as we discussed ? faith : yeah , i am . i miss the ranch , though . victor : sweetheart , i miss you here , okay ? but you 'll be here visiting your mother , so then we 'll see each other . faith : i ca n't wait . victor : i ca n't , either . now , remember , if things get too bad over there , if you do n't like it , you know , if you have something to complain about , talk to your dad ! you have a right to express your opinion . dina : ahh ! now , if you 'll excuse me , i 'll just collect my purse . billy : take your time . [ door closes ] damn it . [ door opens ] dina : [ humming ] la , de , da , da billy : shall we ? dina : absolutely ! let 's go . thank you . dina : [ humming ] ashley : mother . dina : oh ! morning , ashley . ashley : hi there . i just wanted to tell you that your report was excellent . dina : oh , well , i really appreciate that . ashley : we 're gon na have to give you more work to do because you finished so quickly . dina : please do . i did n't realize how much i missed work , and you know , you were right all along . ashley : was i ? about what ? dina : about my being just a little depressed after i sold mergeron . ashley : yeah ? now not so much ? dina : oh , now i wake up with so much energy , and today , i had a real treat . breakfast with abby . ashley : oh ! that must have been nice . dina : oh , it was . and are you aware , honey , that she 's living now out at victor 's ranch ? ashley : how did that happen ? dina : well , nick moved out , and victor asked abby to move right in . ashley : and she 's okay with it ? dina : oh , very , very much so . ashley : abby 's always fought for her father 's approval . what victor gives , sometimes he takes back . dina : mm . ashley : not at all like my father . anyway , thank you so much for letting me know , and i 'll let you get back to work . dina : uh , ashley ? ashley : yeah ? something wrong ? dina : well , one more thing , dear . abby was very , very curious about my marriage with john . why it ended and why i left . ashley : how did you answer her ? victor : thanks for bringing these over . abby : of course ! mwah . it 's a good thing that you 're working from home . it gives me an opportunity to stop by my new place and unpack some boxes . victor : okay . so , if you want some breakfast , darling , i 'll look these over . abby : oh , no , thank you . i actually had breakfast with dina . victor : oh , you did ? abby : i did , yeah . you know , i finally get the chance to have a real relationship with her . a foundation to build on . victor : well , i understand that completely , you know . having grandchildren is a blessing . it 's a gift . one should never take it for granted . abby : i just hope dina knows how grateful i am to have her in my life . especially because i thought i never would . i feel like i can learn a lot from her . i mean , i learned something from her this morning . victor : oh , yeah ? what ? abby : as you know , i 've always wanted to know why she left my grandfather . victor : uh - huh . and why do you think ? abby : well , mom always chalked it up to boredom , that she had no interest in being a wife or a mother . victor : what do you think happened ? abby : i always thought that answer was far too simple . so that 's why i gathered enough courage to ask dina about it . victor : what did she say ? abby : she was very honest with me . she told me that there was another man -- a golf pro . she said that sounded very cliché , but he was handsome and charming and he gave her something that she was lacking . i felt like it was like , a sense of freedom , and that he made her feel very special . victor : let me just say , stuff happens . abby : they did n't end up together . i mean , this man -- he was worth risking her family for , but it never amounted to anything , right ? dad , you must know about this . please , what can you tell me about dina and brent davis ? nick : there she is ! chelsea : hey ! nick : what 'd you think of your new room ? faith : um , it 's fine . can i see christian now ? chelsea : uh , sure . i 'll go see if he 's up from his nap . i know he ca n't wait to see his big sister . i 'll be back . nick : so , what do you say we celebrate your first day back with , uh , i do n't know , a trip to the park , maybe get some lunch , some ice cream ... that 's how we roll , you know . a big family day ? faith : but chelsea and connor are n't my real family . nick : uh , connor is your cousin . and this is your home now . faith : why did n't you tell me before i got home ? nick : i just wanted you to have fun at camp and not worry about anything . nick : then why could n't you have at least waited to move ? or not moved at all ? nick : look , i know moving can be scary , but it could also be exciting . and i wanted you to get settled into your new place before school started . faith : if we 're a family , then why did you just decide without even asking me ? nick : faith ... faith ! do n't walk away from me . sharon : you know , i should have followed my instincts and had faith stay with me the first few nights instead of go to nick and chelsea 's . scott : why did n't you ? sharon : it was just so important for him to take her to their new home . i did n't argue . scott : yeah , but she 's your kid . i mean , you do n't have to defer to nick just because he says so . sharon : well , it was n't really about giving in . nick wants what 's best for faith just like i do . scott : yeah , but if your instincts are telling you something about your daughter , you should trust them . nick : look , sweetheart , you know how much i love you . and if there 's any reason that you are not happy , then i want to know , you know , so we can talk about it . faith : i liked things the way they were at the ranch . mom was close by , and grandma and grandpa . that 's what being a family is like . not this . nick : all of this is being a family . you know , all of it . the ranch , here ... families grow , you know ? they spread out . sometimes things get a little messy , yeah , but it 's okay . it 's just more people to love you . faith : i had my room in my house . but you took that away from me . my life was perfect , and you ruined it . nick : faith , wait . faith ! chelsea : sweetheart , if you want to maybe just ... [ knock on door ] jack : come in ! oh . i thought you were my mom . phyllis : oh , well , she was just at the club with abby . she should be on her way . jack : oh . good . i 'll have a chance to compliment her on her report . phyllis : oh ! since when did you start handing out compliments ? jack : when people do good work for me . phyllis : your mother , who works here ... for how long , exactly ? jack : as long as she wants . i 'd ask you if you had a problem with that , but if you did , i would n't really care . phyllis : oh , that 's so nice . thank you . no , you know what ? you are free to hire whoever you want . unless they 're affiliated with victoria and billy . jack : i assume by that you 're referring to cane , in which case , i would say we dodged a bullet there . i 'm a little more disappointed with how things worked out for ben hochman and victoria . phyllis : well , she 's gon na survive , especially with her sweet loan from neil , which she had time to swing that , but did n't fill cane 's position ... jack : why should she when she can completely monopolize billy 's time ? keep him in her orbit while she 's pretending she 's not trying to get him back in her life . phyllis : billy and i are fine , jack . jack : for how long ? you and i both know billy ca n't be trusted . that 's never gon na change . that is bugging the hell out of you , is n't it ? victor : i never knew about that because i -- i had not moved to genoa city when your grandparents split up . abby : yeah , but mom must have talked to you about it . all of those late - night conversations that couples have when they tell each other everything ... i mean , did mom ever mention a golf pro , a man that dina had an affair with ? victor : what are you getting at ? abby : well , i wonder if mom ever met him . victor : i do n't know . she was very young . but i have a feeling that she does n't want to revisit this period in her life . it 'd make her feel uncomfortable , you know . abby : yeah , but now that mom and dina are getting along , maybe she 's ready to talk about it . victor : eh , i 'm not so sure . abby : why not ? victor : i do n't think it 's too comfortable of a subject matter for your mother to talk about . i mean , you 're just revisiting it , and then perhaps open old wounds , you know ? abby : that makes sense . victor : so then do n't talk to your mother about it . that 's my suggestion . dina : i would never tell abby anything that you would n't want her to hear . ashley : okay , this is really important to me , so i 'm gon na be very clear , okay ? abby is john abbott 's granddaughter , just as i am his daughter . dina : and that will never change . ashley : okay , good . and now we never have to talk about this again . dina : mm - hmm . well , you never would have heard about brent from me . that was a secret that i intended to take to my grave . ashley : it 's not just your secret , though , mother , okay ? i 'm stuck with it , too . and i 'm never gon na burden abby with this , all right ? never . because i know what it 's like to carry something like this around . dina : i 'm truly sorry for that , dear . i am . but if -- if i had n't made that mistake ... you would n't exist . and i will never , ever regret having you in my life . [ next_on ] faith : right now , i want to see grandpa . nick : that 's not gon na happen . jack : you should want all or nothing ! victoria is pulling out all the stops . victoria : i do n't want to just punch back . i want a knockout blow . so , what 's your shady idea ? | nick and sharon tried to help faith warm up to nick 's new living arrangement at chelsea 's . faith let it slip that she knew nikki left victor , but she did n't tell her parents how she knew . sharon decided that it was n't the right time for scott to meet faith . sharon second guessed her decision to let nick take faith first . scott urged sharon to trust her instincts about what was best for faith . chelsea confronted victor when he would n't let her take the bedroom set chelsea designed for faith to the penthouse . victor accused chelsea of using the bedroom set to buy faith 's acceptance . chelsea made an unsuccessful attempt to convince victor to change the way he reacted to nick . victor predicted that faith would come to the ranch when she found life with nick and chelsea intolerable . nick brought faith to the penthouse , and everyone tried to settle in to the new situation . faith secretly called victor , who encouraged her to tell nick how she truly felt . faith lashed out at nick and accused him of ruining her life by leaving the ranch . jack and ashley talked about the impressive work dina was doing at jabot . jack told ashley about overhearing dina and john argue about dina 's affair with brent davis . ashley and ravi were uncomfortable when jack asked about their evening at the cabin . dina and abby talked about abby moving to the ranch and about zack . abby asked why dina left her family , and dina told her a bit about the affair with brent . billy told phyllis that he was n't going to get revenge on jack . phyllis and billy had a disagreement over whether victoria bore any responsibility for her public humiliation . phyllis was frustrated that victoria had n't hired any new employees yet . billy assured phyllis that he 'd have more time for her soon . phyllis griped about dina working at jabot . billy offered dina a ride to work . she accepted . billy followed dina to her suite , and he stole her jabot computer password . billy made an unsuccessful attempt to access jabot 's files . ashley was concerned when she learned about dina and abby 's discussion . dina promised that she 'd never tell abby the truth about brent . ashley did n't want abby to ever know the truth . dina said she did n't regret her affair with brent because it resulted in ashley . ravi might have overheard dina and ashley 's conversation . abby asked victor if ashley ever told him anything about dina and brent . victor claimed he did n't know anything , and he told abby not to ask ashley about it either . phyllis vented to jack about victoria . jack theorized that victoria was monopolizing billy 's time on purpose . jack told phyllis that they both knew billy could n't be trusted . | <s>[INST] faith : um , yeah . nick : all right . i know , uh ... i know your mom had to hold the fort down here , otherwise , she would have been there to pick you up , too . i 'm sure she would have had a sign , you know , and jumped up and down and embarrassed you , but not me . 'cause i 'm cool , like a boss . sharon : faith ! faith : mom ! oh , my god ! sharon : yes ! oh , i missed you so much ! faith : oh , i missed you , too ! nick : i guess she reserved all her hugs for mom . sharon : [ laughs ] look at you ! you 've gotten so tall ! you 're gon na need all new clothes for school ! i bet you 're glad to be home . faith : yeah , i guess . sharon : you guess ? why would you say it like that ? chelsea : i just got a call from the movers who were supposed to deliver faith 's new bedroom set to my place . victor : mm - hmm . chelsea : you know , nick and i wanted it to be a surprise for her when she came home from camp . funny enough , they said that they were turned away . by you . victor : yeah . they were . chelsea : please do n't play games . not now . that was a gift from me . i designed that set . it was a gift for her . victor : really ? it was n't meant as a bribe , so that faith would tolerate the relationship between you and her father ? hmm ? i 'm not playing games . this is not about some damn furniture . this is about the well - being of my granddaughter . ashley : well , i have to say , mother 's report is -- it 's incredibly impressive . jack : she 's sharp , she 's fast . you know how concerned i was about all the errors on her first draft . this is very clean . impeccable . ashley : i know , i guess decades of leading a multinational really hones your skills , huh ? jack : mother is suddenly an asset at jabot . not without irony , given that she could n't have cared less when we were kids . ashley : jabot was not her priority , and , uh , neither were we . jack : maybe we should discuss an expanded role for her . ashley : are you changing the subject ? jack : because it 's obviously upsetting you . ashley : look , our mother had this incredible husband . our father was generous and loving and would have forgiven her anything . so , yeah , sometimes i still do n't understand why that was n't good enough for her . jack : i have asked myself that same question countless times . you know what i finally realized ? it does n't matter . ashley : well , maybe not to you , but you 're not the one who 's had to live with a lie because of it . abby : designdate outperformed all of the other dating apps that went live in the same month . dina : well , he certainly has the brains , he 's handsome , and he 's charming . zack really is the whole package . abby : yeah . he really is a good guy . dina : are you two still socializing away from work ? abby : well , as a matter of fact , he just helped me move . dina : you know , honey , i always did admire a man who was n't afraid to get his hands dirty . [ laughs ] abby : dina ! [ laughs ] phyllis : do you see how amazing mornings can be when we do n't have to rush to work right at sunrise ? billy : no complaints from me . phyllis : i think i 'm gon na send neil and devon a thank - you note for that bridge loan to brash & sassy ! it means more play and less work . so , you mentioned you want to hit back at jack . you care to tell me what you have in mind ? additional sponsorship billy : hitting back at jack ? nah . phyllis : you just said ... billy : i was just making noise because my brother ticked me off , raising the rent on brash & sassy ! knowing that we were cash - poor . phyllis : so you were just blowing steam ? billy : i have many ways to blow off steam . phyllis : oh . you do n't say . billy : i will say that i 'm glad brash & sassy ! did n't end up in bed with hochman , in a business sense , that is . phyllis : that would have been a horrible idea . billy : the guy kneecaps companies like a mob boss for a living . i 'm still not sure why victoria even considered taking a loan from that guy . he 's not that smooth . phyllis : you know , maybe they actually really liked each other . maybe his motives were pure . unlike yours . billy : can you tell me why you 're defending him ? dina : zack helped you move ? does that mean you now have a corner office ? abby : [ laughs ] well , it -- it was n't for work , actually . dina : oh ? well ... how did that come about ? abby : i moved to the newman ranch . dina : you did ? you 're living at victor 's ? abby : i am , yeah . it was all rather sudden , you know , it kind of was complicated , but , um ... okay , nick moved out of his place , and dad offered it to me , and although it is strange to live in my brother 's home , i -- i think it 's a good sign , right ? that dad wants me closer , more a part of the newmans . dina : victor is a man who does n't like being alone . abby : so you think that 's why dad asked me ? to fill up the empty space ? victor : i 'm sure you think a new bed would dazzle faith so much that she would forget how two upended her life while she was in camp . chelsea : no , upending faith 's life was actually your choice . i mean , when you kicked your son out of his home , you in turn kicked your grandchildren out , too . that 's why nick came to me about moving in together . you think we would have chosen to do it like this otherwise ? victor : does n't seem you had too much choice in it , did you ? chelsea : no , that 's not what i meant . i -- [ sighs ] nick wants to provide his children with a loving , stable home . that 's what we intend to give them . i 'm just wondering why you are always trying to make things so difficult for him . victor : do i need to remind you that nicholas turned his back on me ? do you think i 'll allow him to turn faith against me , as well ? chelsea : he would n't do that . victor : he can hardly hide his animosity towards his father . do you honestly think he 's singing my praises now to faith ? chelsea : do you hear the way you 're talking about your own son ? did n't you learn anything from your war with adam ? victor : chelsea , i 'm not concerned with nicholas anymore . i 'm concerned with faith . this is where she came when she found the situation with her parents unbearable . this is where she will come when she finds it difficult to live with you and nicholas . this is her sanctuary . it always will be her sanctuary . sharon : you 're not all that happy to be home with us ? faith : no , i am . sharon : oh , okay . well , what is it , then ? faith : um , i just had so much fun at camp , and i miss my friends already . sharon : mm , those are memories you 're gon na cherish forever . nick : all right ! lemonade after a nice long , hot bus ride . faith : thanks . so , is christian at home ? did he miss me ? nick : he sure did . and you 're gon na see him soon . but , first , i think we should have a little talk , you know , as a family . you , me , and your mom . there were some changes while you were at camp . i think you know how much chelsea means to me . i know you love being a big sister to connor and christian . they mean a lot to you , too , right ? sharon : and you 're so good with them . nick : and when you put two families together like that and they enjoy being around each other , it kinds makes sense to not be apart . so while you were at camp , i ... i decided to move in with chelsea at her penthouse . faith : you decided to move when i was away at camp , without telling me first ? nick : well , yeah , you know , it was n't something i wanted to tell you over the phone or by e - mail . look , i know you 've spent a lot of time at chelsea 's , and it 's great place to live . plus , there 's a surprise waiting for you . it was all chelsea 's idea . faith : what about mom ? sharon : sweetheart , you 're still gon na come to our house on my days , just like always . faith : and while i 'm there , can i see grandpa ? sharon : i do n't see why not . nick : yeah . yeah . if that 's what you want . faith : i do . grandpa needs the company now that grandma 's moved out . nick : how do you know about that ? sharon : faith . daddy asked you -- how did you find out that grandma moved out ? faith : um ... mom , you 're not the only person i talked to when i was at camp . sharon : i just assumed that she told you so that it would n't be such a shock . nick : you know , i know it 's a lot to take in , all these changes , and that 's why your mom and i wanted to get together with you and kind of help you make sense of it . so , you know , what do you think ? how do you feel about us moving in with chelsea ? faith : i loved our old house . i could walk back and forth from mom 's , the main house . plus , there 's my pony . nick : yeah . that 's true . faith : but this could be really good , too , i guess . nick : look , i think it 's gon na be awesome . you know , you 're gon na get a chance to boss around the littles , you 're gon na be in town , which means you 're gon na be closer to your friends and your school , and with that many people around , you are never gon na be lonely . sharon : okay , well , uh , how about that triple - chocolate brownie ? nick : yeah , you , uh ... you better get it to go . faith : okay . nick : thanks for helping me with that . sharon : yeah , that -- that went better than i expected . nick : it 's gon na take some time , you know ? and there will be other things that come up , but i promise you , i will be prepared . sharon : well , i can help out also , when she 's staying at my place . nick : yeah , just promise me that you wo n't let her spend as much time with my dad . faith : [ sighs ] sharon : okay ! nick : okay , uh , you want to get out of here and go check out your new digs ? faith : sure . sharon : all right . sweetie , i 'm so glad you 're home . i missed you so much . faith : i missed you , too , mom . sharon : okay . nick : all right , let 's do it . faith : okay . see you later , mom . sharon : bye ! nick : bye . sharon : hi . i was just saying hello and goodbye to my daughter , faith , who 's just come back from camp . scott : and you do n't want her to know about us . abby : it 's true . dad has chased off all of his other children . i 'm the only one who wants to work with him . i 'm definitely the only one who wants to live near him . dina : i understand that nikki has moved out , too . abby : do you think he 's just stroking my ego to keep me around ? dina : victor is a master manipulator , dear . now , that 's a fact , not a judgment . abby : no , everything dad does is for effect . i think he hired scott grainger just to drive me crazy , which makes me work harder , which i guess is n't such a bad thing . i mean , dad 's pleased with everything i 've accomplished . dina : keep in mind , dear , that victor praises or criticizes to get the reaction he wants . abby : [ laughs ] and he does both on a regular basis . dina : but do n't forget , my darling , just how valuable you really are . abby : you know , it 's complicated , being a newman and then being an abbott on top of that ... dina : oh , i know . i know . abby : do you still consider yourself to be a part of the abbott family ? dina : well , i did n't for many years , but i 'm trying now , hoping to be . abby : you know , there 's something that i 've been wanting to ask you . dina : well , ask me anything . abby : it 's rather personal . dina : oh , well , it 's a good thing that we 're related . abby : you know when we had that spa day , and you said that you had lots of stories to tell ... dina : yes . abby : well , there 's one in particular that i want to hear . why did you leave grandpa and the family ? ashley : i was telling ravi that i think you remember everything clearer because i was so young and probably blocked it out . jack : i was old enough to see it all . certainly a lot more than mother knew i saw . i was there the night dad found out that mother was having an affair . john : brent davis ? for god 's sake , i take golf lessons from the man ! so does jack ! how could you do this ? dina : oh , what do you care ? you have your company to love . i 'm home alone with three kids . i need more , john ! i need so much more than this . ashley : jackie . i 'm sorry . i never knew . jack : yeah . it was just one of many fights . fights that just kept going until , finally , she was gone . anyway , enough about that . ancient history . how about something lighter ? you still have n't told me about your trip to the lake with ravi . ashley : oh , yeah , there 's not much to tell . you know how it is up there -- jack : there 's the man himself . i was just asking ashley about your time at the lake . what 'd you think ? ravi : um ... ravi : i had a blast . the spot on the lake is very peaceful . jack : well , as much time as you spend behind a computer , i can only imagine what an education it was to be in the great outdoors . ashley : well , ravi is actually quite a sailor . jack : you took the boat out , too ? nice ! ashley : the weather was perfect , and so was the company . jack : any other adventures you care to share ? ravi : i finally got to paddleboard . yep . ashley : and we also -- well , he -- forged for mushrooms . [ laughs ] you made a great risotto . jack : so , cooking , sailing , foraging -- you 're a man of many talents . ravi : just putting those merit badges to use . [ laughter ] jack : well , i got to say , i 'm seeing you in a whole new light . how about you , ashley ? has your perspective changed , as well ? ashley : ravi and i are n't focusing on recreation right now , we 're focusing on work because we 're at work , so ... i guess we should go to my office . ravi : yeah , that sounds like a great idea . jack . [ clears throat ] abby : i heard there was another man , and that you were done with marriage and family and you moved to paris . but that 's all i 've been able to put together over the years . dina : that 's true , but it was much more complicated than that . abby : which part ? dina : all of it . i did betray your grandfather . i broke his heart . and our marriage . abby : well , did you love this other man ? dina : [ laughs ] oh , no , no . he -- he was charming and handsome . he was a golf pro -- catnip for a lonely , lonely unhappy woman . abby : so you did n't leave grandpa to be with him ? dina : i left john because i was unhappy and unfulfilled . and so , to paris . abby : did you ever see this golf pro again ? dina : brent davis ? yes , i did , briefly when i came back here in the ' 80s . abby : did you ever tell my mom or uncle jack any of this ? dina : they knew all about that part of my life , a part that , uh , i deeply , sadly regret . abby : even now ? dina : some mistakes live inside you forever . phyllis : i am not defending anybody , especially ben hochman . billy : sure sounds like you 're giving him the benefit of the doubt . phyllis : if victoria was embarrassed , that is on her . she got with a guy , changed her mind , and made a scene in a public place ! billy : a scene that ended up on television . phyllis : she had morning - after regrets in the middle of a hotel . billy : actually , it was in the hallway and nobody deserves that and it was n't a cool thing for hilary to do . phyllis : okay , hilary was being hilary . god knows what victoria was doing . billy : okay . if you want me to blame the mother of my children for this , it 's not gon na happen . billy : speaking of mothers ... that is one hypocritical bitch sitting right over there . billy : i hear she works at jabot now . that must be fun for you two . phyllis : jack took her on as a pity hire . she 's a former mogul , so she 's feeling useful now . billy : so it 's all for show ? phyllis : oh , no , no , no , no . she 's part of the company . she has her own office , you know ? she has no problem acting like she 's running the place , although it has been entertaining to see the way she 's bossing gloria around . ravi -- complete saint , dealing with all her tech issues , setting her new laptop up on the jabot system ... jack better watch his back , or that snake of a mother of his might steal the company right out from under him . chelsea : you 've thought about this a lot -- us being a family . nick : look , if you need more time , i understand . this -- this was your home with adam . i 'm sure you thought that you and adam would be taking connor to his first day of kindergarten , not me and you . so if this is too much , if it 's too soon , just say the word , and we 'll pretend like this conversation never happened . [ door opens ] nick : look who 's home ! chelsea : hi ! faith , welcome home ! oh , it 's so good to see you ! oh ! i ca n't tell how excited i am to have another girl in the house , you know ? and , you know , connor just adores you . i know it 's gon na take some time , but hopefully you eventually feel at home here . faith : [ chuckles nervously ] nick : check it out ! you already scored a spot on the piano . chelsea : yeah ! yeah ! faith : oh . cool . um ... chelsea : yeah . faith : could i see my room ? nick : that is the surprise ! chelsea : wait , not -- uh , well , we wanted to plan the surprise , but the timing did n't quite work out . there 's been a bit of a delay . faith : um , that 's okay . chelsea : you know , why do n't i show you upstairs ? faith : i can find it . chelsea : right ! okay . no worries . it 's the second door on the right . faith : thanks . chelsea : okay . welcome back ! um , so , the movers never showed . nick : [ sighs ] let me guess , dad would n't let them take the furniture . chelsea : yeah , i went to talk to him , i tried to convince him , you know , how important this was to us , and to me , but he did n't care . nick : [ sighs ] i 'm so sorry . you should n't have to deal with that . it 's my problem , not yours . chelsea : this is the second time i 've tried to redo her room , and i just feel like now i 've failed twice . nick : oh , no . hey . hey . no . you 're making her feel loved and welcome , and that is the most important thing , right ? and faith is a champ , you know ? i think she wants this to work just as much as we do . faith : may i speak to my grandfather , please ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : would n't that be something ? dina staging a coup to oust jack from his own company ? it 'd serve the condescending tool right , hiring her just to give her busy work . phyllis : i was n't completely serious . jack would never let anybody take jabot away from him ever again . billy : well , no company is immune to problems . look at brash & sassy ! phyllis : so why is n't victoria dealing with them ? billy : she is . she got a bridge loan . phyllis : she has n't replaced cane or juliet . now , the marketplace is full of talent . hire someone already . billy : she got screwed over by cane and juliet , okay ? she 's being cautious . it 's not a bad thing . she 's working with a headhunter right now and should have their positions filled very soon . phyllis : mm - hmm . unless she does n't want them to . billy : okay , listen ... i know that it drives you crazy , the amount that i 've been working . but that 's all about to change . the pressure has been relieved . more time for you , for us ... ... for this . phyllis : i 'm gon na hold you to it . meanwhile , let 's get back to work , all right ? billy : you go ahead . i got a couple things i got to take care of before i head in . phyllis : all right , but if you 're gon na have to pick up victoria 's dry cleaning ... billy : that 's enough out of you . phyllis : see you later . billy : bye . abby : thank you . dina : you 're welcome . billy : well , good morning , ladies . dina : hello , billy . billy : look at you two rays of sunshine . abby : aww . if he 's flirting , that means he wants something . billy : oh ! abby : you behave . i got to take off . dina : well , thank you for having this talk . abby : you have no idea how much it means to me . dina : and to me , too . anytime . because at my age , i have nothing left to hide . mwah ! abby : love you . dina : i love you . abby : bye . billy : see ya . you know , it 's got to be really nice to be able to catch up with your granddaughter like that . dina : oh , you have no idea . it means all the world to me now that i 'm here in genoa city . billy : [ chuckles ] i 'm heading back to jabot . would you like a lift ? dina : oh , well , thank you , but if you do n't mind , i -- i left a few things in my suite . billy : not at all . dina : well , there we go . sharon : of course i want faith to meet you . it 's just ... she has a lot on her hands today , you know , going from camp to her new living situation with nick at chelsea 's penthouse . it 's a new home , new room , new family dynamic . you know , i -- it was too much to throw you into the mix today . scott : yeah , i heard about abby moving into nick 's old place , and i guess i had n't thought about how that might impact faith . sharon : well , she 's so strong , but she 's just seen too much for a child her age . you know , parents apart more than they were together , not to mention step - parents , and nick 's house -- it was just always a constant in faith 's life , and now that 's gone . scott : and , uh , how 's she handling that ? sharon : she 's ... she 's fine , but she 's subdued . and i know my daughter . she 's not telling us everything . a child her age needs continuity and stability . scott : you know , i do n't know faith , but it 's obvious that she has a lot of people in her life who love and support her . that makes all the difference , no matter where she lives . victor : faith , sweetheart , are you all right ? faith : i 'm at chelsea 's . i hope it 's okay that i 'm calling you , grandpa . victor : of course you can call me . what 's on your mind ? faith : i 'm really glad you came to camp last night to tell me about dad moving in with chelsea . i would n't have wanted to find out after getting back . victor : what did you tell them ? faith : i did n't mention that we talked . i did n't lie , though . i just did n't tell them everything . victor : well , just know , whatever you say , i 'll back you up , okay ? faith : they keep calling this my home . but it isn't . there was supposed to be a surprise , but that did n't happen . victor : are you trying to make the best of it as we discussed ? faith : yeah , i am . i miss the ranch , though . victor : sweetheart , i miss you here , okay ? but you 'll be here visiting your mother , so then we 'll see each other . faith : i ca n't wait . victor : i ca n't , either . now , remember , if things get too bad over there , if you do n't like it , you know , if you have something to complain about , talk to your dad ! you have a right to express your opinion . dina : ahh ! now , if you 'll excuse me , i 'll just collect my purse . billy : take your time . [ door closes ] damn it . [ door opens ] dina : [ humming ] la , de , da , da billy : shall we ? dina : absolutely ! let 's go . thank you . dina : [ humming ] ashley : mother . dina : oh ! morning , ashley . ashley : hi there . i just wanted to tell you that your report was excellent . dina : oh , well , i really appreciate that . ashley : we 're gon na have to give you more work to do because you finished so quickly . dina : please do . i did n't realize how much i missed work , and you know , you were right all along . ashley : was i ? about what ? dina : about my being just a little depressed after i sold mergeron . ashley : yeah ? now not so much ? dina : oh , now i wake up with so much energy , and today , i had a real treat . breakfast with abby . ashley : oh ! that must have been nice . dina : oh , it was . and are you aware , honey , that she 's living now out at victor 's ranch ? ashley : how did that happen ? dina : well , nick moved out , and victor asked abby to move right in . ashley : and she 's okay with it ? dina : oh , very , very much so . ashley : abby 's always fought for her father 's approval . what victor gives , sometimes he takes back . dina : mm . ashley : not at all like my father . anyway , thank you so much for letting me know , and i 'll let you get back to work . dina : uh , ashley ? ashley : yeah ? something wrong ? dina : well , one more thing , dear . abby was very , very curious about my marriage with john . why it ended and why i left . ashley : how did you answer her ? victor : thanks for bringing these over . abby : of course ! mwah . it 's a good thing that you 're working from home . it gives me an opportunity to stop by my new place and unpack some boxes . victor : okay . so , if you want some breakfast , darling , i 'll look these over . abby : oh , no , thank you . i actually had breakfast with dina . victor : oh , you did ? abby : i did , yeah . you know , i finally get the chance to have a real relationship with her . a foundation to build on . victor : well , i understand that completely , you know . having grandchildren is a blessing . it 's a gift . one should never take it for granted . abby : i just hope dina knows how grateful i am to have her in my life . especially because i thought i never would . i feel like i can learn a lot from her . i mean , i learned something from her this morning . victor : oh , yeah ? what ? abby : as you know , i 've always wanted to know why she left my grandfather . victor : uh - huh . and why do you think ? abby : well , mom always chalked it up to boredom , that she had no interest in being a wife or a mother . victor : what do you think happened ? abby : i always thought that answer was far too simple . so that 's why i gathered enough courage to ask dina about it . victor : what did she say ? abby : she was very honest with me . she told me that there was another man -- a golf pro . she said that sounded very cliché , but he was handsome and charming and he gave her something that she was lacking . i felt like it was like , a sense of freedom , and that he made her feel very special . victor : let me just say , stuff happens . abby : they did n't end up together . i mean , this man -- he was worth risking her family for , but it never amounted to anything , right ? dad , you must know about this . please , what can you tell me about dina and brent davis ? nick : there she is ! chelsea : hey ! nick : what 'd you think of your new room ? faith : um , it 's fine . can i see christian now ? chelsea : uh , sure . i 'll go see if he 's up from his nap . i know he ca n't wait to see his big sister . i 'll be back . nick : so , what do you say we celebrate your first day back with , uh , i do n't know , a trip to the park , maybe get some lunch , some ice cream ... that 's how we roll , you know . a big family day ? faith : but chelsea and connor are n't my real family . nick : uh , connor is your cousin . and this is your home now . faith : why did n't you tell me before i got home ? nick : i just wanted you to have fun at camp and not worry about anything . nick : then why could n't you have at least waited to move ? or not moved at all ? nick : look , i know moving can be scary , but it could also be exciting . and i wanted you to get settled into your new place before school started . faith : if we 're a family , then why did you just decide without even asking me ? nick : faith ... faith ! do n't walk away from me . sharon : you know , i should have followed my instincts and had faith stay with me the first few nights instead of go to nick and chelsea 's . scott : why did n't you ? sharon : it was just so important for him to take her to their new home . i did n't argue . scott : yeah , but she 's your kid . i mean , you do n't have to defer to nick just because he says so . sharon : well , it was n't really about giving in . nick wants what 's best for faith just like i do . scott : yeah , but if your instincts are telling you something about your daughter , you should trust them . nick : look , sweetheart , you know how much i love you . and if there 's any reason that you are not happy , then i want to know , you know , so we can talk about it . faith : i liked things the way they were at the ranch . mom was close by , and grandma and grandpa . that 's what being a family is like . not this . nick : all of this is being a family . you know , all of it . the ranch , here ... families grow , you know ? they spread out . sometimes things get a little messy , yeah , but it 's okay . it 's just more people to love you . faith : i had my room in my house . but you took that away from me . my life was perfect , and you ruined it . nick : faith , wait . faith ! chelsea : sweetheart , if you want to maybe just ... [ knock on door ] jack : come in ! oh . i thought you were my mom . phyllis : oh , well , she was just at the club with abby . she should be on her way . jack : oh . good . i 'll have a chance to compliment her on her report . phyllis : oh ! since when did you start handing out compliments ? jack : when people do good work for me . phyllis : your mother , who works here ... for how long , exactly ? jack : as long as she wants . i 'd ask you if you had a problem with that , but if you did , i would n't really care . phyllis : oh , that 's so nice . thank you . no , you know what ? you are free to hire whoever you want . unless they 're affiliated with victoria and billy . jack : i assume by that you 're referring to cane , in which case , i would say we dodged a bullet there . i 'm a little more disappointed with how things worked out for ben hochman and victoria . phyllis : well , she 's gon na survive , especially with her sweet loan from neil , which she had time to swing that , but did n't fill cane 's position ... jack : why should she when she can completely monopolize billy 's time ? keep him in her orbit while she 's pretending she 's not trying to get him back in her life . phyllis : billy and i are fine , jack . jack : for how long ? you and i both know billy ca n't be trusted . that 's never gon na change . that is bugging the hell out of you , is n't it ? victor : i never knew about that because i -- i had not moved to genoa city when your grandparents split up . abby : yeah , but mom must have talked to you about it . all of those late - night conversations that couples have when they tell each other everything ... i mean , did mom ever mention a golf pro , a man that dina had an affair with ? victor : what are you getting at ? abby : well , i wonder if mom ever met him . victor : i do n't know . she was very young . but i have a feeling that she does n't want to revisit this period in her life . it 'd make her feel uncomfortable , you know . abby : yeah , but now that mom and dina are getting along , maybe she 's ready to talk about it . victor : eh , i 'm not so sure . abby : why not ? victor : i do n't think it 's too comfortable of a subject matter for your mother to talk about . i mean , you 're just revisiting it , and then perhaps open old wounds , you know ? abby : that makes sense . victor : so then do n't talk to your mother about it . that 's my suggestion . dina : i would never tell abby anything that you would n't want her to hear . ashley : okay , this is really important to me , so i 'm gon na be very clear , okay ? abby is john abbott 's granddaughter , just as i am his daughter . dina : and that will never change . ashley : okay , good . and now we never have to talk about this again . dina : mm - hmm . well , you never would have heard about brent from me . that was a secret that i intended to take to my grave . ashley : it 's not just your secret , though , mother , okay ? i 'm stuck with it , too . and i 'm never gon na burden abby with this , all right ? never . because i know what it 's like to carry something like this around . dina : i 'm truly sorry for that , dear . i am . but if -- if i had n't made that mistake ... you would n't exist . and i will never , ever regret having you in my life . [ next_on ] faith : right now , i want to see grandpa . nick : that 's not gon na happen . jack : you should want all or nothing ! victoria is pulling out all the stops . victoria : i do n't want to just punch back . i want a knockout blow . so , what 's your shady idea ?Summarize.[/INST]nick and sharon tried to help faith warm up to nick 's new living arrangement at chelsea 's . faith let it slip that she knew nikki left victor , but she did n't tell her parents how she knew . sharon decided that it was n't the right time for scott to meet faith . sharon second guessed her decision to let nick take faith first . scott urged sharon to trust her instincts about what was best for faith . chelsea confronted victor when he would n't let her take the bedroom set chelsea designed for faith to the penthouse . victor accused chelsea of using the bedroom set to buy faith 's acceptance . chelsea made an unsuccessful attempt to convince victor to change the way he reacted to nick . victor predicted that faith would come to the ranch when she found life with nick and chelsea intolerable . nick brought faith to the penthouse , and everyone tried to settle in to the new situation . faith secretly called victor , who encouraged her to tell nick how she truly felt . faith lashed out at nick and accused him of ruining her life by leaving the ranch . jack and ashley talked about the impressive work dina was doing at jabot . jack told ashley about overhearing dina and john argue about dina 's affair with brent davis . ashley and ravi were uncomfortable when jack asked about their evening at the cabin . dina and abby talked about abby moving to the ranch and about zack . abby asked why dina left her family , and dina told her a bit about the affair with brent . billy told phyllis that he was n't going to get revenge on jack . phyllis and billy had a disagreement over whether victoria bore any responsibility for her public humiliation . phyllis was frustrated that victoria had n't hired any new employees yet . billy assured phyllis that he 'd have more time for her soon . phyllis griped about dina working at jabot . billy offered dina a ride to work . she accepted . billy followed dina to her suite , and he stole her jabot computer password . billy made an unsuccessful attempt to access jabot 's files . ashley was concerned when she learned about dina and abby 's discussion . dina promised that she 'd never tell abby the truth about brent . ashley did n't want abby to ever know the truth . dina said she did n't regret her affair with brent because it resulted in ashley . ravi might have overheard dina and ashley 's conversation . abby asked victor if ashley ever told him anything about dina and brent . victor claimed he did n't know anything , and he told abby not to ask ashley about it either . phyllis vented to jack about victoria . jack theorized that victoria was monopolizing billy 's time on purpose . jack told phyllis that they both knew billy could n't be trusted .</s> | 17,908 |

[ scene_break ] david : you are relatively new in pine valley , but it 's no different from any other sorry collection of mud huts you 've practiced medicine in . griffin : really ? how is that ? david : there 's an epidemic of ignorance , doctor . it 's widespread -- in fact , it 's universal . you do something extraordinary , and you are guaranteed to have villagers on your front lawn storming your keep with torches and pitchforks . but you can also rest assured that those same malcontents will be falling at your feet begging you to use your bold science to save them when they need it . griffin : if we 're not in prison first . david : the real crime would be to stop the project now . look , we 're never gon na get lavery to understand the merits of our work , even if we use flash cards and simple words to do it . griffin : ryan lavery is not stupid . david : but you know that he 's biased against me , and kendall will always follow his lead . so we continue to keep this quiet . i 'm not ready to go public yet . we do that , and they will kill the project , and we both know what a tragedy that would be . keep your eyes focused on the goal , dr. castillo . compartmentalize . you want to achieve unparalleled professional success , do n't get personally involved . maybe it 's too late for that , huh ?

lily : [ sighs ] so , this is how my marriage ends . cane over there , me over here , and the judge in between . michael : lily , you fought the good fight . you stood by cane much longer than most women would have in your position . lily : well , i loved him . michael : which is how i know that this is so difficult for you . lily : yeah , this is not what i wanted . but i know that cane wo n't give up hope until it 's official . last night was proof of that . [ sighs ] do n't ask . i just know that my family 's in limbo , and it 's not healthy . for any of us . i just -- i want to get this over with . michael : counselor , where is your client ? lily : yeah , that 's what i would like to know . paul : is that for me ? cane : paul . paul . paul . come on , man . what is taking so long ? i have somewhere i have to be , all right ? billy got out first thing . please . paul : that 's because somebody paid his bail . cane : well , i called esther ages ago . paul : maybe you should have called your wife . cane : oh , no . god , no . she 's the last person i want knowing about this . paul : sorry , cane . it 's out of my hands , really . cane : all right , well , just let me call my attorney , okay ? right now . i guarantee you , he 's probably wondering where i am even as i speak . paul : you know you already had your call . i ca n't do that . i 'm not gon na give you any special treatment , right ? cane : [ sighs ] paul : i have to treat you the same way as i do every other detainee . there you go . cane : all right , listen , i screwed up my marriage . do n't make me screw up my divorce . please ! [ sighs ] what ? you judging me ? please do n't judge me , okay ? i did what any married man would do trying to save his marriage , and i was just trying to let my wife know how much i loved her , okay , and it went sideways . you know , there was a time where , if i was caught up in a tough spot like this , there was a lot of people i could depend on , but ... not anymore . juliet : actually , there 's still one person who has your back . and eventually , someday , there will be two . paul : how could you let that happen ? ! okay [ stammering ] i do n't want to hear your excuses ! your slip - up cost us the best lead we have in the sex- trafficking case . and the girl could be in danger ! [ door rattles forcefully ] tessa : i - i still ca n't believe it . noah : yeah , i know . seeing the place burned down like that ... tessa : you and nick worked so hard . but you 'll get through this . noah : yeah ... tessa : is he still meeting us here ? noah : i sent him a text and voicemail . w - we have n't really talked since the fire . tessa : maybe he does n't want to talk about it . noah : maybe he just does n't want to tell me what 's going on in his mind . [ nick and noah sigh ] nick : hell of a thing , huh ? noah : yeah . tessa : hi . nick : hi , tessa . i 'm surprised you , uh , went by there , you know ? i did n't think you 'd want to see the place like that . noah : well , i could only put it off for so long . nick : yeah , we should probably have a conversation about that . noah : yeah . yeah , like , about rebuilding . when do we start ? nick : [ sighs ] honestly ? never . jordan : [ knocks ] chief williams ? paul : yeah ? jordan : jordan wilde . what is lily ashby 's almost - ex doing behind bars ? paul : can i help you with something ? jordan : i need to report a burglary . paul : okay . the desk sergeant can help you with that . jordan : look , sir , i know that you 're busy , but please just hear me out for one minute . and if you feel like i 'm wasting your time , i 'll head to that desk sergeant . paul : okay . you got your minute . jordan : thank you . um ... okay . here 's the thing . i 'm staying at the gcac . someone got into my room , trashed the place , could have helped themselves to some very expensive equipment , and who knows what else . it took me over an hour just to find my keys in the mess . paul : you know what , the club has their own security . jordan : they claim that their surveillance cameras did n't capture anything . i 'm wondering if it was an inside job . hilary : we 're doing a live show . i need you in the studio pronto . mariah : i 'm just grabbing coffee . hilary : which we have here . move it . mariah : well , the queen has summoned me . i got to go . sorry . sharon : oh , okay . well , have a nice day . mariah : yeah , not likely . thank you . [ rustling ] additional sponsorship lily : you guys did n't have to come here . devon : oh , of course we did . neil : oh , yes , we did . we 're not gon na let you go through this alone . devon : you 're stuck with us . and afterwards , we 'll go get lunch . maybe the liquid kind . lily : [ laughs ] well , thank you for being here . neil : hey , sweetheart , what you 're going through , it 's really hard , and there 's no way around it . this is one of many chapters in your life . the next one is just about to begin . if you 're ready . lily : i am ready . i thought cane was , too , but ... i had no idea what i was gon na say to him face - to - face , but it looks like he found a way around that . for all we know , this could be his last - ditch effort to stall the divorce . cane : thank you . hey , listen , thank you again for coming down here , okay ? i really appreciate it . juliet : esther filled me in . cane : what , she knew and she did n't come herself ? juliet : she wanted you to sit and stew for a while . learn from you mistakes . according to her , that 's what mrs . c. would want . cane : well , i learned a lot . last night was a disaster . [ sighs ] juliet : here . you 'll need this for court . cane : oh . thanks . listen , uh , i owe you . let 's just hope the judge does n't ask me why i 'm late . juliet : do you think lily will tell him ? cane : uh , i do n't know . i do n't think she knows about last night . let 's hope it stays that way . juliet : it 's a painful day after -- after a rough night . so , i 'm -- i 'm really sorry that you 're going through any of this . cane : yeah , yeah . you and me both . um , listen , uh , i got to get out of here , okay ? um , thanks . sharon : wow . [ sighs ] you gave me quite the scare . crystal : sorry . but i needed to see you . and i had to get in before anyone noticed me . sharon : crystal , it 's not safe for you to be out of police protection . i 've got to call paul . crystal : no ! no , please . i ca n't go back there . i think they found me . i could swear that i saw alice out the window , across the street . sharon : crystal , alice left town terrified for her own life . i do n't think she 's working for those people anymore . crystal : you do n't know them . they could 've gotten to her and pulled her back in . and it 's not just alice . i saw the same car parked out front of the house a couple of times . sharon : it could 've been a neighbor . crystal : or it could 've been the boss . or leon , or god knows who else , but i just ca n't sit there waiting for them ... to do whatever they 're gon na do next . i ... i 'm a threat that they 'll want to be rid of . ugh . you probably think that i 'm paranoid . [ sighs ] sharon : no . i think that you 're scared . as anyone would be after what you 've been through . i do n't know why you did n't tell the police what you thought you saw . they 're the ones that can protect you . crystal : or not . sharon : what does that mean ? crystal : i do n't trust anyone but you or tessa . noah : i get that this is a lot to process . once we get the insurance money , there 's gon na be plenty to get started again . we can make it just the way we want to -- you know , with a decent sprinkler system at the top of our priority list . nick : [ sighs ] look , i appreciate your energy and your optimism , but ... i just ca n't do it . noah : why ? nick : because i 'm done with that place . tessa : i 'm so sorry , noah , but i - i have to go . noah : okay . tessa : okay . um ... noah : yeah . i 'll talk to you later ? tessa : i 'll leave you guys to it . nick : sure . noah : okay . tessa : bye . nick : bye . tessa : bye . noah : this is just gon na take a little bit of time . i mean , you -- look , i can oversee the construction . that way you can focus on the new locations . that -- that makes it easier . nick : it doesn't . noah : dad , the original location is gon na be our flagship , okay , but better than ever , all right ? nick : look , you 're not hearing me , okay ? when i say i 'm done with that place , it means the underground in all its forms , okay ? that means this one and the other locations . noah : dad , you ca n't do this , okay ? you ca n't do this to me . michael : have you been in touch with you client ? i 'm sure i 'll hear from him soon . michael : in other words , you have no idea when or even if he 'll be here ? neil : michael , anything ? michael : sorry . nothing . no word , and possibly no show . lily : if he does n't show up , the hearing will be delayed , and then we 'll continue to be in limbo . i ca n't keep jerking the kids around and tell them , `` oh , well . dad did n't show up . `` it 's not fair to them or me to drag this out . michael : that 's not gon na happen . as long as cane 's attorney is here , we can proceed . in fact , without him here , it 'll go all the more quickly . cane : all right . i 'm here . i 'm -- i 'm sorry i 'm late . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . okay ? all right , listen . i - i did n't mean to worry you , okay ? devon : it 's not about worrying anyone . it 's about having enough respect for my sister to be on time . neil : cane , where you been ? cane : something came up . okay ? devon : that 's it ? that 's all you got ? lily : okay , can we stop , please ? it does n't matter where cane was or where he 's going after this . let 's just proceed as planned . tessa : if someone was outside the safe house -- are you sure you were n't followed ? crystal : i was careful . sharon : i 'm the only one who knows she 's here . and i 'm keeping the place closed for now . tessa : that does n't mean that zack ca n't figure out a way to track her down . i mean , he could have someone on the payroll that we have no idea about . crystal : who 's zack ? sharon : he 's the one we think is running the sex ring . using a legitimate dating app as a front for a prostitution ring . the one that you were forced into . tessa : show her the picture . crystal : that 's him . that 's the boss . noah : you 're still in shock over what happened , okay ? now is not the time to be making decisions like no more underground or no more chains . so [ scoffs ] you want to hold off on rebuilding , that 's fine . we 'll hold off . but the other locations are in perfect condition . there 's no reason to bail on them . nick : look , son , i 'm sorry . i just -- i ca n't do it . my heart 's not in it anymore . noah : because of the fire ? that -- that does n't mean we walk away -- nick : this is the second time that that place has gone to hell . it 's the second time that people 's lives were at risk . i do n't need the universe to keep hitting me over the head , all right ? that building , this business model , it 's not working . noah : it 's not the universe . it 's -- it 's fire . that 's it . that 's all . it 's a setback . it happens in business . nick : okay . you want to look at it from a pure business point of view , let 's do that . the return on the investment will be negligible for a very , very long time . every day that the underground is closed , we are losing money . it 'll take forever to catch up . noah : since when was this ever about just making money ? nick : you 're right . it never was . you know , i always wanted my own spot , you know , my own nightclub . i did n't have to wear a suit , and i did n't have to sit in any boring board meetings . it was awesome . but it 's not fun anymore . i do n't find it exciting or liberating anymore , and i 'm ready to move on . noah : [ scoffs ] fine . so we do n't rebuild . but that does n't mean we abandon the other locations . nick : it 's not gon na work . noah : is this because you do n't have your trust fund ? you know , because [ scoffs ] that was n't the fire , dad . that was your choice . nick : you 're right , that was my choice to give away my money to charity , and i 'm glad i did it . because my life is not about being victor newman 's son . and he is not backing off . do you know that he bought our liquor distributor ? he bought it . and he 's gon na raise the prices so high just to let us know that he is still in control . noah : so we get our vodka from somewhere else . these are just logistics . who cares ? nick : he is never gon na let me run that place in peace . i mean , you have to understand , that is why we hit so many dead ends in all those other cities . it was dad putting up road blocks . noah : so then we find a way around him . i mean , come on ! this is -- nick : look , i 'm not gon na spend the rest of my life reacting to my father , dodging bullets , all right ? you have had your run - ins with him . you know what it 's like . but it is different with me , okay ? you being even one generation apart is a huge difference . look , when i broke free , my dad saw that as a betrayal . in his mind , i just ... i betrayed him , and he 's never gon na let me forget it or forgive me . he 's never gon na let me off the hook . the only thing i can do is look forward . i 'm not looking back . that is why i gave away the money , is to be my own man , to take control of my life . because it 's mine . i hope you understand that . mariah : i 'm here . i 'm dressed . so can you tell me why we 're doing a live show instead of using the one that we have in the can ? hilary : because this is too juicy . too time - sensitive . it is about dating someone with a secret life . mariah : so , like every reality show on television . why is it time - sensitive ? hilary : because when someone finds out that they 're being played for a fool and lied to by the person that they 're dating , it takes some urgency , do n't you think ? mariah : well , i do n't know . some people keep secrets for good reasons . you know , they do n't want to cause any pain . which is a novel concept to someone like you , who hands out misery like halloween candy . but some people are n't soulless monsters . they prefer to leave the people they care about in peace and keep their mouth shut . hilary : oh , touched a nerve , have we ? are you lying to devon , or is devon lying to you ? mariah : no , i never said -- hilary : oh , please . that was rhetorical . i do n't actually care . but i will take you getting all fired up as a sign that i am on the right track . today 's show will touch a big , raw , pulsing nerve as i shine a light on some ugly lies . tessa : zack was always a creep . even when i knew him back in chicago . he 's just making more money than he did before . [ sighs ] i mean , i even ... talked to him about you recently . crystal : you did ? tessa : yeah . when i could n't track you down . he acted like he did n't know a damn thing . crystal : how did you know him ? did he ever , um ... ? tessa : he tried . but just more low - key . some massage - parlor stuff . i mean , he 's slicker now , with the clothes and the car and the app , just pretending he 's legit . sharon : is zack the one who recruited you ? crystal : mnh - mnh . i hardly ever saw him . and it was n't until later . i did n't even know his name was zack . in the beginning , it was all alice . `` you remind me of myself at your age . i 'll look out for you . `` [ sighs ] `` we all need a friend sometimes . `` that sort of thing . like she was doing us a favor . by the time i realized what was actually happening , it was too late for me to get out . tessa : are you sure that maybe zack did n't send alice out to get you ? i mean , after i took off on him , maybe he just wanted a replacement . sharon : tessa , if you 're thinking that this is your fault -- tessa : two sisters ? do you think that 's a coincidence ? crystal : who knows why alice picked me ? it was probably because i was stupid enough to listen . tessa : hey , you 're not stupid . do n't say that . sharon : i think we need to call the police and let them know that crystal can i.d . zack . crystal : no , we can't . you do n't know what it 's like . they have people everywhere . oh , god . like i said , the only two people i trust are in this room . sharon : i understand , but do you really think the police ca n't help ? crystal : once somebody knows where i am , the news is out . i know zack is looking for me . i can feel it . that 's why i had to leave the safe house . if i keep moving , he ca n't catch me . tessa : sh - she 's right . we ca n't risk it . not after natalia . crystal : what about natalia ? where -- where is she ? sharon : um ... i 'm sorry , crystal , but natalia 's dead . she was murdered . crystal : what ? ! all she wanted was a better life . i told you . he wo n't stop until he finds me and he shuts me up . look , no one can know that i 'm here . please . [ knock on patio door ] sharon : oh . suddenly people do n't understand what a `` closed `` sign means . i - i 'll deal with it . tessa : okay . it 's gon na be okay . [ knocking continues ] sharon : oh , paul . hi . um , sorry about that . paul : that 's okay . hey . uh ... you 're usually open by now . is there a problem ? sharon : uh , yeah , it 's the pipes . same thing that happened when dylan owned the place . you know how it goes . paul : well , we have to do this privately , anyway . uh , i have to talk to you about what 's going on with crystal . noah : so is this what you really want ? to be done with our business , with our partnership ? nick : [ sighs ] it 's not just for me , bud , all right ? it 's for you , too . noah : [ scoffs ] i 'm not the one that wants out . nick : well , i 'm the one with the target on my back . your grandfather still wants you to succeed . so if you would like to go ahead with this expansion and the rebuild , then go for it . noah : doing this alone was never part of the plan . nick : look , this was always ... this was always you , man . you were the brains and the heart of this operation . i was just the wallet . [ noah scoffs ] and you have your own money , noah . and when this insurance money comes in , you can have every penny of that , too . it 's yours . take it . so if you want to go ahead with this expansion , then you keep your dream alive . charlie : mom ? dad ? lily : charlie ! what are you doing here ? you 're supposed to be in school . charlie : look , you guys do n't have to do this . you do n't have to be here right now . try one more time . lily : listen , i know that you are upset , and it kills me to see you that way , but we talked about this . it 's time . cane : all right , just let him finish . say what you were gon na say , bud . charlie : look , you screwed up , and i thought i was never gon na forgive you . that night at the fire ... look , if things had been different , i would n't be here right now . and the point is , the only thing that mattered that night were the four of us . i 'm just asking why ca n't that be the only thing that matters today , too ? cane : charlie , it still does matter , okay ? sweetheart , you and these kids , you are my world , and we have survived worse than this . and i came to the house last night to tell you , but i -- i screwed it up . lily : cane , we agreed . for you to do this right now , in front of charlie , you ca n't do that ! cane : i know we did . i know , i know , i know . but you are a fighter . and you beat cancer . and the doctor said you could n't have a baby , but you did . you made it happen . and you 've protected our family every day ever since . i know why . i 'm just asking you -- i 'm begging you , just -- just fight for us one last time . that 's all i 'm asking you to do . neil : okay , look , cane . this lady here , she 's done the fighting . she 's earned the right to say `` no more , `` you hear me ? cane : and you are right , okay ? so , sweetheart , i will do the fighting for us . i 'll do it . all you have to do is say yes . and , sweetheart , that 's what i will do . i will fight for us . just say yes . devon : cane , have you not done enough , man ? i mean , really , we 're in this room right now because of all the stuff you 've pulled . cane : i know . devon : you do n't have to guilt - trip my sister . if you really want to do something good , let her live her life . charlie : this is n't just about them . this is about all of us . neil : charlie , your mother deserves peace , and if this is how she finds it , then we need to respect that . cane : it 's okay . lily : michael ... uh , maybe we should postpone and -- `` the young and the restless `` will continue . hilary : oh , my bees . now , do i have a question for you today . what would you do if you were dating a guy who seemed to be perfect -- he was thoughtful , sexy , talented -- but it turns out that he was hiding a secret ? a secret so deep that he locked you out of his life and kept you in the dark ? mariah : i , for one , have no clue , because my boyfriend -- maybe you know him -- he is all of those good things , but especially honest . hilary : yes , but not all men are devon hamilton . and only one of us can say that from experience . now , i 'm sure all of you remember jordan wilde -- or at least his abs . he was the fashion photographer hot enough to step out in front of the camera . now , how jealous would you be if you found out that jordan and i were dating for months ? yes , that 's right . mariah : i 'm sensing past tense . hilary : past and sometimes very tense . we are no longer seeing each other , which is a big relief , because jordan was keeping a secret . a deep , dark one . jordan wilde of new york is also marcus jones of illinois , and jason hightower of california . now , i need to ask myself , is jordan wilde even his real name ? or is he someone else entirely ? lily : did you really invite juliet to our divorce hearing ? cane : no , i did n't invite her here . lily : well , here she is . cane : not 'cause i want her to be here . lily : no . o - of course she thinks it 's okay to be here . of course . she 's living in jill 's house with you , she 's carrying your child , gon na be a part of your life for the next 50-odd years because you slept with her and you lied about it and now here we are . is this judge ever gon na get this thing started ? michael : you said something about postponing ? lily : no , i 'm over it . let 's do this . charlie : mom , please ! lily : charlie , i am sorry . this is how things have to be . cane : all right , my suit , you bailed me out , i appreciate it , but you do n't have to turn up here . why are you here ? juliet : i wanted to talk to lily . michael : oooh , um ... juliet : apologize . ask her to give you another chance . lily : you are amazing . inserting yourself into our personal business . do you think that after what you did to my marriage that you have the right to ask me for anything , ever ? are you that clueless , or are you just selfish ? why are you really here ? did you want to get a ringside seat , make sure everything goes as planned ? put the final nail in the coffin ? you know what , i do n't care why you do what you do anymore , because after today , you 're cane 's problem , and i plan to forget that you exist . cane : juliet , you need to leave , please . juliet : i never meant to cause any trouble . cane : what did you think was gon na happen , okay ? i 'm making progress with lily , and you ruined that like you ruined my marriage . juliet : this took two of us . even if you want to pretend that it didn't . and i know that you are upset , but that does not give you the right to yell at me , especially when i was the only one who was willing to bail you out of jail . lily : you did what ? juliet : i never meant for any of this . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . juliet : [ sniffles ] i know . your mom hates me , and your dad wants me gone . you do n't have to repeat the message . charlie : it 's not your fault . juliet : what ? charlie : the divorce . it was never just about you . look , cheating 's bad enough . but my dad lied and made it worse . he knows he screwed up . but it 's easier to take it out on you than to just own it . he was out of line . it 's not just because , you know , you 're ... juliet : you 're a good kid . i hope this ba -- ... baby -- aah ! charlie : are you okay ? juliet : [ exhales sharply ] yeah , i 'm fine . [ breathing deeply ] charlie : are you sure ? i mean , you look kind of a funny color . can i call someone ? juliet : uh , no . it 's -- it 's a cramp . it 's just a part of the package . ooh ... it 'll pass in a moment . and then i will be out of everyone 's way . aah ! phew ! cane -- cane : just -- sweetheart , listen . it 's not as bad as it sounded . lily : really ? cane : listen , i came to the house last night , and -- and i was drunk , and the cops hauled me off because i was outside and i was begging you to take me back . lily : yeah , i know . i was home . cane : and you did n't come to the door ? lily : no , i didn't . but i heard you . and obviously our neighbors did , too , because somebody called the police . i see these people every morning . our kids hang out with theirs . cane : i love you so much i ca n't think straight . and charlie was right -- it does n't have to be this way . cane , please . cane : [ sighs ] since all parties are present , i 'm calling this hearing to order . sharon : so , what are you saying ? where did she go ? did someone grab her or did she run away ? paul : well , all indications are that crystal left the safe house on her own . i mean , this young girl trusted us up to a point , and clearly we let her down , and now she 's out on her own again . sharon : oh , i hate to think of crystal scared and on the run . paul : i suspect she 's gon na come to your or tessa soon . so if you hear from her , you need to contact me immediately . so , sharon , one way or another , we 're gon na bring this trafficking ring down . but in order to do that , we need to work together on this . i can count on you , right ? sharon : of course . paul : good . sharon : um ... i 'll let tessa know right away . paul : okay . sharon : and , paul , we 're so grateful . i hope you know that . paul : oh , yeah . um ... one more thing you should know . i never got a chance to ask crystal if she could i.d . zack . hopefully she 's gon na be back in police protection very soon , and we can find out if he is involved . sharon : if zack is the one who 's behind this ... paul : then he is as dangerous as you and scott think he is . take care . noah : taking over the underground on my own ? nick : making it exactly what you want . your ideas . your vision . no compromise . noah : yeah , i got a trust fund , sure . what i do n't have is the experience . not like you . nick : the best way to get experience is to jump right in . your mom and i learned that years ago with the coffeehouse . noah : you really think i can do this ? nick : you can do anything you want . set your own pace . do what works for you . and no one says you ca n't take on another partner , you know . noah : i had one . my dad . meant a lot to me . nick : [ sighs ] that was definitely the best part for me , too . look , you know , we tried . now we 're gon na go do something else . you have way more sense than i did at your age . you know , you have the -- you have the energy and the time and the focus to make this business or anything else you decide to do whatever you want . noah : i already had what i wanted . anything else just feels like a step backward . nick : do n't look at it like that , you know ? yeah , we 're on different paths , but we 're moving forward . it 's a leap of faith . i 'm ready for that . are you ? hilary : with the internet and shows like mine , it is almost impossible to keep a secret these days . that 's why i 'm sure that many of you were as stunned as i was when i first came across this . mariah : i have to admit , i know a thing or two about keeping secrets , and even i 'm shocked by this . hilary : now , this is where you , my lovely and loyal buzzy viewers come in . if you know anything about this man -- jordan , marcus , jason , or whatever he calls himself -- drop us a line . these i.d.s are gon na be posted on our website later today . take a look . forward the link to your family and friends . this is crowdsourcing at its best . we need to look out for each other . as we wrap up this very special edition , i leave you with this -- if there is one thing i know about my bees , sometimes we 're all about the honey ... but sometimes we 're all about the sting . paul : oh , mr . wilde . an officer 's going to be getting in touch with you regarding the details of your burglary . jordan : oh , not necessary , chief . um ... it was a misunderstanding . turns out someone that i know borrowed my equipment without asking . so no harm , no foul . sorry for wasting your time . tessa : thank you , sharon . i know paul is like family to you . sharon : but so are you now . both of you . crystal , i know , when you 're scared , you run . even when you 're with people who do n't want to hurt you . i ca n't let that happen again , so i need for you to trust me . if you do n't want the police to know where you are , i wo n't be the one who tells them . i 'm gon na do everything i can to help you . but i know we 're all wondering the same thing . [ sighs ] when will this nightmare really be over , and when will you be truly safe ? noah : maybe we can just talk about this later , you know . nick : well , you never told me , you know -- are you gon na make a go at it or what ? noah : [ scoffs ] to be honest , i really do n't know what i 'm gon na do right now . nick : i did throw a lot at you at once . so take some time , do what 's best for you . but just know , whatever you think that is , you have my support . always . noah : yeah , you say that . nick : i mean it , son . noah : yeah . you know [ scoffs ] i got to tell you , it feels like you 're just pushing me away like you have the rest of the newman family . nick : well , it may feel like that right now , but i promise you , that is not what i want . and i hope in time you realize that . charlie : let me get someone . juliet : no , please . this happens . you are sweet to worry , but it will be fine . i will leave just as soon as i -- aah ! charlie : juliet ! juliet ! juliet ? hey ! j - juliet ... any other issues before we finalize the matter ? michael : no , your honor . i think that 's everything . charlie : i need help . it 's juliet . it 's -- cane : charlie , is that blood ? [ next_on ] dina : now that you 've lost victor , any rich young man would be happy to have a free lap dance . cane : what happened ? lily : they rushed her into surgery . she 's losing too much blood . either we get this baby out now or we lose them both . | noah is hurt that nick does n't want to ebuild the underground or move ahead with the club expansion but nick tells noah that he can do the club expansion asnd rebuilding on his own since he has his own money , noah thinks nick is pushing him away just like he did with the rest of the newman family . hilary does a live episode of the hilary hour to espose two of jordan 's identities from hiis con man days and ask her audience to help her find out about jordan 's past . paul finds out crystal ran away from the safe house but is unaware that sharon has agred to hide her since crystal is afraid that the sex ring leader will find her and kill her . sharon shows crystal a picture of zack whom she identifies as the leader of the sex ring . lily al , most postpones the divorce hearing when charlie shows up to ask her to give cane another chance . but changes her mind when juliet shows up top apologize for all the pain she has caused and ask her to give cane another chance . juliet starts to cramp and bleed and charlie rushes into the courtroom to ask for help before the judge can finalize cane and lily 's divorce . | <s>[INST] lily : [ sighs ] so , this is how my marriage ends . cane over there , me over here , and the judge in between . michael : lily , you fought the good fight . you stood by cane much longer than most women would have in your position . lily : well , i loved him . michael : which is how i know that this is so difficult for you . lily : yeah , this is not what i wanted . but i know that cane wo n't give up hope until it 's official . last night was proof of that . [ sighs ] do n't ask . i just know that my family 's in limbo , and it 's not healthy . for any of us . i just -- i want to get this over with . michael : counselor , where is your client ? lily : yeah , that 's what i would like to know . paul : is that for me ? cane : paul . paul . paul . come on , man . what is taking so long ? i have somewhere i have to be , all right ? billy got out first thing . please . paul : that 's because somebody paid his bail . cane : well , i called esther ages ago . paul : maybe you should have called your wife . cane : oh , no . god , no . she 's the last person i want knowing about this . paul : sorry , cane . it 's out of my hands , really . cane : all right , well , just let me call my attorney , okay ? right now . i guarantee you , he 's probably wondering where i am even as i speak . paul : you know you already had your call . i ca n't do that . i 'm not gon na give you any special treatment , right ? cane : [ sighs ] paul : i have to treat you the same way as i do every other detainee . there you go . cane : all right , listen , i screwed up my marriage . do n't make me screw up my divorce . please ! [ sighs ] what ? you judging me ? please do n't judge me , okay ? i did what any married man would do trying to save his marriage , and i was just trying to let my wife know how much i loved her , okay , and it went sideways . you know , there was a time where , if i was caught up in a tough spot like this , there was a lot of people i could depend on , but ... not anymore . juliet : actually , there 's still one person who has your back . and eventually , someday , there will be two . paul : how could you let that happen ? ! okay [ stammering ] i do n't want to hear your excuses ! your slip - up cost us the best lead we have in the sex- trafficking case . and the girl could be in danger ! [ door rattles forcefully ] tessa : i - i still ca n't believe it . noah : yeah , i know . seeing the place burned down like that ... tessa : you and nick worked so hard . but you 'll get through this . noah : yeah ... tessa : is he still meeting us here ? noah : i sent him a text and voicemail . w - we have n't really talked since the fire . tessa : maybe he does n't want to talk about it . noah : maybe he just does n't want to tell me what 's going on in his mind . [ nick and noah sigh ] nick : hell of a thing , huh ? noah : yeah . tessa : hi . nick : hi , tessa . i 'm surprised you , uh , went by there , you know ? i did n't think you 'd want to see the place like that . noah : well , i could only put it off for so long . nick : yeah , we should probably have a conversation about that . noah : yeah . yeah , like , about rebuilding . when do we start ? nick : [ sighs ] honestly ? never . jordan : [ knocks ] chief williams ? paul : yeah ? jordan : jordan wilde . what is lily ashby 's almost - ex doing behind bars ? paul : can i help you with something ? jordan : i need to report a burglary . paul : okay . the desk sergeant can help you with that . jordan : look , sir , i know that you 're busy , but please just hear me out for one minute . and if you feel like i 'm wasting your time , i 'll head to that desk sergeant . paul : okay . you got your minute . jordan : thank you . um ... okay . here 's the thing . i 'm staying at the gcac . someone got into my room , trashed the place , could have helped themselves to some very expensive equipment , and who knows what else . it took me over an hour just to find my keys in the mess . paul : you know what , the club has their own security . jordan : they claim that their surveillance cameras did n't capture anything . i 'm wondering if it was an inside job . hilary : we 're doing a live show . i need you in the studio pronto . mariah : i 'm just grabbing coffee . hilary : which we have here . move it . mariah : well , the queen has summoned me . i got to go . sorry . sharon : oh , okay . well , have a nice day . mariah : yeah , not likely . thank you . [ rustling ] additional sponsorship lily : you guys did n't have to come here . devon : oh , of course we did . neil : oh , yes , we did . we 're not gon na let you go through this alone . devon : you 're stuck with us . and afterwards , we 'll go get lunch . maybe the liquid kind . lily : [ laughs ] well , thank you for being here . neil : hey , sweetheart , what you 're going through , it 's really hard , and there 's no way around it . this is one of many chapters in your life . the next one is just about to begin . if you 're ready . lily : i am ready . i thought cane was , too , but ... i had no idea what i was gon na say to him face - to - face , but it looks like he found a way around that . for all we know , this could be his last - ditch effort to stall the divorce . cane : thank you . hey , listen , thank you again for coming down here , okay ? i really appreciate it . juliet : esther filled me in . cane : what , she knew and she did n't come herself ? juliet : she wanted you to sit and stew for a while . learn from you mistakes . according to her , that 's what mrs . c. would want . cane : well , i learned a lot . last night was a disaster . [ sighs ] juliet : here . you 'll need this for court . cane : oh . thanks . listen , uh , i owe you . let 's just hope the judge does n't ask me why i 'm late . juliet : do you think lily will tell him ? cane : uh , i do n't know . i do n't think she knows about last night . let 's hope it stays that way . juliet : it 's a painful day after -- after a rough night . so , i 'm -- i 'm really sorry that you 're going through any of this . cane : yeah , yeah . you and me both . um , listen , uh , i got to get out of here , okay ? um , thanks . sharon : wow . [ sighs ] you gave me quite the scare . crystal : sorry . but i needed to see you . and i had to get in before anyone noticed me . sharon : crystal , it 's not safe for you to be out of police protection . i 've got to call paul . crystal : no ! no , please . i ca n't go back there . i think they found me . i could swear that i saw alice out the window , across the street . sharon : crystal , alice left town terrified for her own life . i do n't think she 's working for those people anymore . crystal : you do n't know them . they could 've gotten to her and pulled her back in . and it 's not just alice . i saw the same car parked out front of the house a couple of times . sharon : it could 've been a neighbor . crystal : or it could 've been the boss . or leon , or god knows who else , but i just ca n't sit there waiting for them ... to do whatever they 're gon na do next . i ... i 'm a threat that they 'll want to be rid of . ugh . you probably think that i 'm paranoid . [ sighs ] sharon : no . i think that you 're scared . as anyone would be after what you 've been through . i do n't know why you did n't tell the police what you thought you saw . they 're the ones that can protect you . crystal : or not . sharon : what does that mean ? crystal : i do n't trust anyone but you or tessa . noah : i get that this is a lot to process . once we get the insurance money , there 's gon na be plenty to get started again . we can make it just the way we want to -- you know , with a decent sprinkler system at the top of our priority list . nick : [ sighs ] look , i appreciate your energy and your optimism , but ... i just ca n't do it . noah : why ? nick : because i 'm done with that place . tessa : i 'm so sorry , noah , but i - i have to go . noah : okay . tessa : okay . um ... noah : yeah . i 'll talk to you later ? tessa : i 'll leave you guys to it . nick : sure . noah : okay . tessa : bye . nick : bye . tessa : bye . noah : this is just gon na take a little bit of time . i mean , you -- look , i can oversee the construction . that way you can focus on the new locations . that -- that makes it easier . nick : it doesn't . noah : dad , the original location is gon na be our flagship , okay , but better than ever , all right ? nick : look , you 're not hearing me , okay ? when i say i 'm done with that place , it means the underground in all its forms , okay ? that means this one and the other locations . noah : dad , you ca n't do this , okay ? you ca n't do this to me . michael : have you been in touch with you client ? i 'm sure i 'll hear from him soon . michael : in other words , you have no idea when or even if he 'll be here ? neil : michael , anything ? michael : sorry . nothing . no word , and possibly no show . lily : if he does n't show up , the hearing will be delayed , and then we 'll continue to be in limbo . i ca n't keep jerking the kids around and tell them , `` oh , well . dad did n't show up . `` it 's not fair to them or me to drag this out . michael : that 's not gon na happen . as long as cane 's attorney is here , we can proceed . in fact , without him here , it 'll go all the more quickly . cane : all right . i 'm here . i 'm -- i 'm sorry i 'm late . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . okay ? all right , listen . i - i did n't mean to worry you , okay ? devon : it 's not about worrying anyone . it 's about having enough respect for my sister to be on time . neil : cane , where you been ? cane : something came up . okay ? devon : that 's it ? that 's all you got ? lily : okay , can we stop , please ? it does n't matter where cane was or where he 's going after this . let 's just proceed as planned . tessa : if someone was outside the safe house -- are you sure you were n't followed ? crystal : i was careful . sharon : i 'm the only one who knows she 's here . and i 'm keeping the place closed for now . tessa : that does n't mean that zack ca n't figure out a way to track her down . i mean , he could have someone on the payroll that we have no idea about . crystal : who 's zack ? sharon : he 's the one we think is running the sex ring . using a legitimate dating app as a front for a prostitution ring . the one that you were forced into . tessa : show her the picture . crystal : that 's him . that 's the boss . noah : you 're still in shock over what happened , okay ? now is not the time to be making decisions like no more underground or no more chains . so [ scoffs ] you want to hold off on rebuilding , that 's fine . we 'll hold off . but the other locations are in perfect condition . there 's no reason to bail on them . nick : look , son , i 'm sorry . i just -- i ca n't do it . my heart 's not in it anymore . noah : because of the fire ? that -- that does n't mean we walk away -- nick : this is the second time that that place has gone to hell . it 's the second time that people 's lives were at risk . i do n't need the universe to keep hitting me over the head , all right ? that building , this business model , it 's not working . noah : it 's not the universe . it 's -- it 's fire . that 's it . that 's all . it 's a setback . it happens in business . nick : okay . you want to look at it from a pure business point of view , let 's do that . the return on the investment will be negligible for a very , very long time . every day that the underground is closed , we are losing money . it 'll take forever to catch up . noah : since when was this ever about just making money ? nick : you 're right . it never was . you know , i always wanted my own spot , you know , my own nightclub . i did n't have to wear a suit , and i did n't have to sit in any boring board meetings . it was awesome . but it 's not fun anymore . i do n't find it exciting or liberating anymore , and i 'm ready to move on . noah : [ scoffs ] fine . so we do n't rebuild . but that does n't mean we abandon the other locations . nick : it 's not gon na work . noah : is this because you do n't have your trust fund ? you know , because [ scoffs ] that was n't the fire , dad . that was your choice . nick : you 're right , that was my choice to give away my money to charity , and i 'm glad i did it . because my life is not about being victor newman 's son . and he is not backing off . do you know that he bought our liquor distributor ? he bought it . and he 's gon na raise the prices so high just to let us know that he is still in control . noah : so we get our vodka from somewhere else . these are just logistics . who cares ? nick : he is never gon na let me run that place in peace . i mean , you have to understand , that is why we hit so many dead ends in all those other cities . it was dad putting up road blocks . noah : so then we find a way around him . i mean , come on ! this is -- nick : look , i 'm not gon na spend the rest of my life reacting to my father , dodging bullets , all right ? you have had your run - ins with him . you know what it 's like . but it is different with me , okay ? you being even one generation apart is a huge difference . look , when i broke free , my dad saw that as a betrayal . in his mind , i just ... i betrayed him , and he 's never gon na let me forget it or forgive me . he 's never gon na let me off the hook . the only thing i can do is look forward . i 'm not looking back . that is why i gave away the money , is to be my own man , to take control of my life . because it 's mine . i hope you understand that . mariah : i 'm here . i 'm dressed . so can you tell me why we 're doing a live show instead of using the one that we have in the can ? hilary : because this is too juicy . too time - sensitive . it is about dating someone with a secret life . mariah : so , like every reality show on television . why is it time - sensitive ? hilary : because when someone finds out that they 're being played for a fool and lied to by the person that they 're dating , it takes some urgency , do n't you think ? mariah : well , i do n't know . some people keep secrets for good reasons . you know , they do n't want to cause any pain . which is a novel concept to someone like you , who hands out misery like halloween candy . but some people are n't soulless monsters . they prefer to leave the people they care about in peace and keep their mouth shut . hilary : oh , touched a nerve , have we ? are you lying to devon , or is devon lying to you ? mariah : no , i never said -- hilary : oh , please . that was rhetorical . i do n't actually care . but i will take you getting all fired up as a sign that i am on the right track . today 's show will touch a big , raw , pulsing nerve as i shine a light on some ugly lies . tessa : zack was always a creep . even when i knew him back in chicago . he 's just making more money than he did before . [ sighs ] i mean , i even ... talked to him about you recently . crystal : you did ? tessa : yeah . when i could n't track you down . he acted like he did n't know a damn thing . crystal : how did you know him ? did he ever , um ... ? tessa : he tried . but just more low - key . some massage - parlor stuff . i mean , he 's slicker now , with the clothes and the car and the app , just pretending he 's legit . sharon : is zack the one who recruited you ? crystal : mnh - mnh . i hardly ever saw him . and it was n't until later . i did n't even know his name was zack . in the beginning , it was all alice . `` you remind me of myself at your age . i 'll look out for you . `` [ sighs ] `` we all need a friend sometimes . `` that sort of thing . like she was doing us a favor . by the time i realized what was actually happening , it was too late for me to get out . tessa : are you sure that maybe zack did n't send alice out to get you ? i mean , after i took off on him , maybe he just wanted a replacement . sharon : tessa , if you 're thinking that this is your fault -- tessa : two sisters ? do you think that 's a coincidence ? crystal : who knows why alice picked me ? it was probably because i was stupid enough to listen . tessa : hey , you 're not stupid . do n't say that . sharon : i think we need to call the police and let them know that crystal can i.d . zack . crystal : no , we can't . you do n't know what it 's like . they have people everywhere . oh , god . like i said , the only two people i trust are in this room . sharon : i understand , but do you really think the police ca n't help ? crystal : once somebody knows where i am , the news is out . i know zack is looking for me . i can feel it . that 's why i had to leave the safe house . if i keep moving , he ca n't catch me . tessa : sh - she 's right . we ca n't risk it . not after natalia . crystal : what about natalia ? where -- where is she ? sharon : um ... i 'm sorry , crystal , but natalia 's dead . she was murdered . crystal : what ? ! all she wanted was a better life . i told you . he wo n't stop until he finds me and he shuts me up . look , no one can know that i 'm here . please . [ knock on patio door ] sharon : oh . suddenly people do n't understand what a `` closed `` sign means . i - i 'll deal with it . tessa : okay . it 's gon na be okay . [ knocking continues ] sharon : oh , paul . hi . um , sorry about that . paul : that 's okay . hey . uh ... you 're usually open by now . is there a problem ? sharon : uh , yeah , it 's the pipes . same thing that happened when dylan owned the place . you know how it goes . paul : well , we have to do this privately , anyway . uh , i have to talk to you about what 's going on with crystal . noah : so is this what you really want ? to be done with our business , with our partnership ? nick : [ sighs ] it 's not just for me , bud , all right ? it 's for you , too . noah : [ scoffs ] i 'm not the one that wants out . nick : well , i 'm the one with the target on my back . your grandfather still wants you to succeed . so if you would like to go ahead with this expansion and the rebuild , then go for it . noah : doing this alone was never part of the plan . nick : look , this was always ... this was always you , man . you were the brains and the heart of this operation . i was just the wallet . [ noah scoffs ] and you have your own money , noah . and when this insurance money comes in , you can have every penny of that , too . it 's yours . take it . so if you want to go ahead with this expansion , then you keep your dream alive . charlie : mom ? dad ? lily : charlie ! what are you doing here ? you 're supposed to be in school . charlie : look , you guys do n't have to do this . you do n't have to be here right now . try one more time . lily : listen , i know that you are upset , and it kills me to see you that way , but we talked about this . it 's time . cane : all right , just let him finish . say what you were gon na say , bud . charlie : look , you screwed up , and i thought i was never gon na forgive you . that night at the fire ... look , if things had been different , i would n't be here right now . and the point is , the only thing that mattered that night were the four of us . i 'm just asking why ca n't that be the only thing that matters today , too ? cane : charlie , it still does matter , okay ? sweetheart , you and these kids , you are my world , and we have survived worse than this . and i came to the house last night to tell you , but i -- i screwed it up . lily : cane , we agreed . for you to do this right now , in front of charlie , you ca n't do that ! cane : i know we did . i know , i know , i know . but you are a fighter . and you beat cancer . and the doctor said you could n't have a baby , but you did . you made it happen . and you 've protected our family every day ever since . i know why . i 'm just asking you -- i 'm begging you , just -- just fight for us one last time . that 's all i 'm asking you to do . neil : okay , look , cane . this lady here , she 's done the fighting . she 's earned the right to say `` no more , `` you hear me ? cane : and you are right , okay ? so , sweetheart , i will do the fighting for us . i 'll do it . all you have to do is say yes . and , sweetheart , that 's what i will do . i will fight for us . just say yes . devon : cane , have you not done enough , man ? i mean , really , we 're in this room right now because of all the stuff you 've pulled . cane : i know . devon : you do n't have to guilt - trip my sister . if you really want to do something good , let her live her life . charlie : this is n't just about them . this is about all of us . neil : charlie , your mother deserves peace , and if this is how she finds it , then we need to respect that . cane : it 's okay . lily : michael ... uh , maybe we should postpone and -- `` the young and the restless `` will continue . hilary : oh , my bees . now , do i have a question for you today . what would you do if you were dating a guy who seemed to be perfect -- he was thoughtful , sexy , talented -- but it turns out that he was hiding a secret ? a secret so deep that he locked you out of his life and kept you in the dark ? mariah : i , for one , have no clue , because my boyfriend -- maybe you know him -- he is all of those good things , but especially honest . hilary : yes , but not all men are devon hamilton . and only one of us can say that from experience . now , i 'm sure all of you remember jordan wilde -- or at least his abs . he was the fashion photographer hot enough to step out in front of the camera . now , how jealous would you be if you found out that jordan and i were dating for months ? yes , that 's right . mariah : i 'm sensing past tense . hilary : past and sometimes very tense . we are no longer seeing each other , which is a big relief , because jordan was keeping a secret . a deep , dark one . jordan wilde of new york is also marcus jones of illinois , and jason hightower of california . now , i need to ask myself , is jordan wilde even his real name ? or is he someone else entirely ? lily : did you really invite juliet to our divorce hearing ? cane : no , i did n't invite her here . lily : well , here she is . cane : not 'cause i want her to be here . lily : no . o - of course she thinks it 's okay to be here . of course . she 's living in jill 's house with you , she 's carrying your child , gon na be a part of your life for the next 50-odd years because you slept with her and you lied about it and now here we are . is this judge ever gon na get this thing started ? michael : you said something about postponing ? lily : no , i 'm over it . let 's do this . charlie : mom , please ! lily : charlie , i am sorry . this is how things have to be . cane : all right , my suit , you bailed me out , i appreciate it , but you do n't have to turn up here . why are you here ? juliet : i wanted to talk to lily . michael : oooh , um ... juliet : apologize . ask her to give you another chance . lily : you are amazing . inserting yourself into our personal business . do you think that after what you did to my marriage that you have the right to ask me for anything , ever ? are you that clueless , or are you just selfish ? why are you really here ? did you want to get a ringside seat , make sure everything goes as planned ? put the final nail in the coffin ? you know what , i do n't care why you do what you do anymore , because after today , you 're cane 's problem , and i plan to forget that you exist . cane : juliet , you need to leave , please . juliet : i never meant to cause any trouble . cane : what did you think was gon na happen , okay ? i 'm making progress with lily , and you ruined that like you ruined my marriage . juliet : this took two of us . even if you want to pretend that it didn't . and i know that you are upset , but that does not give you the right to yell at me , especially when i was the only one who was willing to bail you out of jail . lily : you did what ? juliet : i never meant for any of this . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . juliet : [ sniffles ] i know . your mom hates me , and your dad wants me gone . you do n't have to repeat the message . charlie : it 's not your fault . juliet : what ? charlie : the divorce . it was never just about you . look , cheating 's bad enough . but my dad lied and made it worse . he knows he screwed up . but it 's easier to take it out on you than to just own it . he was out of line . it 's not just because , you know , you 're ... juliet : you 're a good kid . i hope this ba -- ... baby -- aah ! charlie : are you okay ? juliet : [ exhales sharply ] yeah , i 'm fine . [ breathing deeply ] charlie : are you sure ? i mean , you look kind of a funny color . can i call someone ? juliet : uh , no . it 's -- it 's a cramp . it 's just a part of the package . ooh ... it 'll pass in a moment . and then i will be out of everyone 's way . aah ! phew ! cane -- cane : just -- sweetheart , listen . it 's not as bad as it sounded . lily : really ?

nick : making it exactly what you want . your ideas . your vision . no compromise . noah : yeah , i got a trust fund , sure . what i do n't have is the experience . not like you . nick : the best way to get experience is to jump right in . your mom and i learned that years ago with the coffeehouse . noah : you really think i can do this ? nick : you can do anything you want . set your own pace . do what works for you . and no one says you ca n't take on another partner , you know . noah : i had one . my dad . meant a lot to me . nick : [ sighs ] that was definitely the best part for me , too . look , you know , we tried . now we 're gon na go do something else . you have way more sense than i did at your age . you know , you have the -- you have the energy and the time and the focus to make this business or anything else you decide to do whatever you want . noah : i already had what i wanted . anything else just feels like a step backward . nick : do n't look at it like that , you know ? yeah , we 're on different paths , but we 're moving forward . it 's a leap of faith . i 'm ready for that . are you ? hilary : with the internet and shows like mine , it is almost impossible to keep a secret these days . that 's why i 'm sure that many of you were as stunned as i was when i first came across this . mariah : i have to admit , i know a thing or two about keeping secrets , and even i 'm shocked by this . hilary : now , this is where you , my lovely and loyal buzzy viewers come in . if you know anything about this man -- jordan , marcus , jason , or whatever he calls himself -- drop us a line . these i.d.s are gon na be posted on our website later today . take a look . forward the link to your family and friends . this is crowdsourcing at its best . we need to look out for each other . as we wrap up this very special edition , i leave you with this -- if there is one thing i know about my bees , sometimes we 're all about the honey ... but sometimes we 're all about the sting . paul : oh , mr . wilde . an officer 's going to be getting in touch with you regarding the details of your burglary . jordan : oh , not necessary , chief . um ... it was a misunderstanding . turns out someone that i know borrowed my equipment without asking . so no harm , no foul . sorry for wasting your time . tessa : thank you , sharon . i know paul is like family to you . sharon : but so are you now . both of you . crystal , i know , when you 're scared , you run . even when you 're with people who do n't want to hurt you . i ca n't let that happen again , so i need for you to trust me . if you do n't want the police to know where you are , i wo n't be the one who tells them . i 'm gon na do everything i can to help you . but i know we 're all wondering the same thing .

[ scene_break ] alexis : the satisfaction that i take in telling you that this serial killer can no longer threaten the lives of the citizens of port charles is tempered by the fact that this person who committed these heinous crimes was , in fact , an officer in training in this very police department -- cooper barrett . mr. barrett 's reign of terror was brought to an end by his final victim , georgie jones , who bravely tried to fight off her attacker . [ shutters click ] alexis : skin was taken from underneath ms. jones ' fingernails -- it was a d.n.a . match to barrett 's . those test results , which cooper barrett stole from this squad room , have been discovered with his body after he committed suicide by hanging . if you have any questions , i 'll take them now . [ scene_break ] reporter : as police cadet , barrett had relatively easy access , he had means . but look at the other victims -- the corinthos nanny and emily quartermaine , the attempts on georgie jones ' sister and carly jacks . what 's your theory about motive ? why did he do it ? maxie : he did n't do it . spinelli : are n't you supposed to be in the hospital or something ? maxie : listen to me , okay ? coop did n't kill my sister , he did n't kill emily , he did n't try and kill me , he absolutely did n't kill himself . he is not the text message killer and you are going to help me prove it .

[ scene_break ] leyla : i know the other nurses were quite charmed by your false flattery . ian : hmm , not false . leyla : painfully predictable . it 's like i 'm staring at patrick 's clone . did you two have some kind of a score sheet in med school , keeping track of conquests ? a rating system -- yeah . well , you seem like a very competent surgeon , dr. devlin , and i look forward to working with you but other than that , i 'm afraid you 'd be wasting your time . i 'm really not the type of girl you 'd be interested in .

[ scene_break ] robin : well , the human race is evolving at an accelerated rate it seems , but that does n't include the male species . they are still ruled by primal urges , which means they 're only good for one thing . kelly : i gather you have n't told the guy who got you pregnant that he 's a father ? robin : he could n't care less . kelly : and how does that make you feel ? [ scene_break ] jason : hack into the phone records , find out who cooper called before and after he left me the message that he wanted to talk to me . spinelli : yes . the grasshopper obeys and assumes by his master 's continued interest that he is still not convinced that cadet coop is the text message killer . which would mean that coop 's ironic demise by self - inflicted strangulation is neither ironic nor self - inflicted . jason : spinelli ? spinelli : yes , i strive to be terse and laconic like men of action everywhere .

[ scene_break ] alexis : the satisfaction that i take in telling you that this serial killer can no longer threaten the lives of the citizens of port charles is tempered by the fact that this person who committed these heinous crimes was , in fact , an officer in training in this very police department -- cooper barrett . mr. barrett 's reign of terror was brought to an end by his final victim , georgie jones , who bravely tried to fight off her attacker . [ shutters click ] alexis : skin was taken from underneath ms. jones ' fingernails -- it was a d.n.a . match to barrett 's . those test results , which cooper barrett stole from this squad room , have been discovered with his body after he committed suicide by hanging . if you have any questions , i 'll take them now . [ scene_break ] reporter : as police cadet , barrett had relatively easy access , he had means . but look at the other victims -- the corinthos nanny and emily quartermaine , the attempts on georgie jones ' sister and carly jacks . what 's your theory about motive ? why did he do it ? maxie : he did n't do it . spinelli : are n't you supposed to be in the hospital or something ? maxie : listen to me , okay ? coop did n't kill my sister , he did n't kill emily , he did n't try and kill me , he absolutely did n't kill himself . he is not the text message killer and you are going to help me prove it . [ scene_break ] lulu : ugh . logan : let me get that . lulu : how can you be so nice to me after the way i treated you , assuming the worst ? logan : i 've given you reason to . lulu : yeah , but you did n't turn johnny into the police . i was wrong . [ logan sighs ] logan : lulu , i do n't like that guy , all right ? but you see something in him , something good -- maybe , you know , something he did n't even see in himself . and that 's the reason you gave me a second chance , so i got to deal with it . lulu : no , no , there is nothing to deal with . there is nothing going on with me and johnny like that . can you just do me a favor ? logan : name it . lulu : can we not talk about him ? logan : well , i think i can do a little better than that . now that you 're off work , i 'm going to take you out , show you some fun . [ scene_break ] monica : my husband 's will -- or rather , the one you forged . tracy : i did n't -- edward : no , you had luke do the dirty work . monica : which just makes you a lousy accomplice . edward : you see , no one actually believed all that poppycock that luke put in the will about the special bond that you and alan shared -- alan : actually , that part was true . edward : that made it necessary for him to donate everything to you out of some misguided sense of loyalty . monica : you know , even if alan had decided to stick it to us -- the whole family , as a parting shot -- he never would 've done it to emily . alan : but you got greedy . edward : but you got greedy . monica : emily was the hope of this family . she was everything good about us . if you had n't cheated her out of her inheritance -- tracy : oh , no , you do n't ! monica : if she had realized that we needed her as much if not more than nikolas -- tracy : you 're not going to blame me for emily 's death any more than you can blame me for this family turning into a eugene o'neill play . all we need is a little more drinking . monica : i 'm celebrating . tracy : huh , yeah , you are , and living in style . in fact , even if your career went up in smoke , you 'd still be living in style -- why ? because of the one true salvation of this family -- me . edward : oh , please ! tracy : so what if i did forge the will ? edward : aha ! monica : huh -- you admit it ! tracy : no , i 'm not admitting anything . i 'm just pointing out that your lifestyle never changed because i have been carrying this family !

[ scene_break ] reporter : are you satisfied that the pcpd got this right , that cooper barrett is your sister 's killer ? jason : no comment . reporter : is there any chance the cadet 's death was a mob hit and not a suicide ? mac : the man said no comment .

[ scene_break ] [ footsteps ] alexis : you scared me to death ! jerry : oh , come on , it 's better than being strangled to death . alexis : oh , god . jerry : you should be a little more careful -- any psychopath could get in here . alexis : no kidding . look , the police are certain they 've found our killer , okay ? jerry : are you ? alexis : what is your continuing interest in this case ? jerry : my interest , darling , is in you . alexis : i told you -- jerry : yes , you told me to keep a respectful distance so i would not tarnish your image -- fine . alexis : i told you that i do n't need a guardian angel . jerry : well , you see , i lack the required qualifications in that , darling . alexis : i told you that now that i 'm d.a . , i can no longer represent you . jerry : oh . you make it sound that it might be more than temporary . it feels good getting back in the saddle , does n't it ? alexis : huh . i 'm doing ric a favor . jerry : of course , yes . but somehow , i get the impression that you think that you might not be coming back at all . alexis : i know what this is about . i know why you 're here . [ scene_break ] spinelli : i -- i ca n't make the pattern fit -- i mean , at least not yet anyhow . maxie : well , you should add coop to the list . you 've already made up your mind that coop did it just like the rest of them . spinelli : no , no , that 's not true . i -- i swear on what is most precious to me , okay ? i -- i 'm willing to accept that cadet coop is not the evildoer . maxie : why ? spinelli : reasons i can not divulge . maxie : because you 're scared of me ? spinelli : fear plays a prominent factor , but i -- i also -- i also feel that you -- you ca n't accept the fact that maybe someone that you -- that you trusted , perhaps even loved -- maxie : i know that you think i 'm incapable , but i did love coop -- a lot . spinelli : well , what if he turns out to be someone you did n't know ? maxie : i want you to understand this so i 'm going to tell you how i met coop , and if you ever tell anyone -- spinelli : oh , it will go with me to my grave . maxie : during the metro court hostage crisis , i was locked in a vault with one of the gunmen -- three . that was coop . he only took the job so that he could make some quick money and afterwards , he tried really hard to rebuild his life but he was always looking over his shoulder . spinelli : because his identity , his real identity was known to the warped one -- mr. craig , also known as jerry jacks . [ scene_break ] alexis : this is about the piers . you know that skye owns them , you want them , and i stupidly told you too much before so i should 've known that you had ulterior motives . jerry : oh -- what are you afraid of , darling ?

[ scene_break ] leyla : i know the other nurses were quite charmed by your false flattery . ian : hmm , not false . leyla : painfully predictable . it 's like i 'm staring at patrick 's clone . did you two have some kind of a score sheet in med school , keeping track of conquests ? a rating system -- yeah . well , you seem like a very competent surgeon , dr. devlin , and i look forward to working with you but other than that , i 'm afraid you 'd be wasting your time . i 'm really not the type of girl you 'd be interested in .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : the killer may have just snapped not even intending to kill the first victim and -- and then some terrible beast inside was unleashed . [ scene_break ] [ blender shatters ] [ scene_break ] maxie : but at some point , it became a game with the text messages . this killer obviously enjoys taunting his victims .

i mean , you going on and on about belle like this ? kate : oh ... i do n't know . i just -- i think she 's a terrific kid , and frankly , i would be happy if philip found someone just like her . belle : what 's the matter , shawn ?

[ laughs ] jason : [ clears throat ] thank you . carly : [ chuckles ] there 's nothing i would n't do for you . you know that . jason : [ sighs ] sam : can you do me a favor ? i know that my sisters ' are gon na probably want to help in planning the wedding . can you just rein them in ? no white doves , no carriage , nothing like that . carly : it 's going to be simple , sweet , and absolutely beautiful . sam : thank you . jason : you know i love you , right ? carly : [ squeals ] i do , i do . and i love you , too . and i ca n't wait to discuss centerpieces with you . jason : oh , not even funny . not even a little bit . carly : i 'll see you later , okay ? jason : wow . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . [ laughs ] nelle : hey . hey , sorry if i seemed a little rude earlier . carly : not rude , concerned . so just tell me why you did n't want sam and jason to know that you 're josslyn 's kidney donor . nelle : do you mind if we talk about his privately ? carly : of course . nelle : yeah . carly : okay . we have to get to the house for avery anyway , so come on . [ scene_break ] sam : actually , i need to take off , as well . so i will meet you back here later , okay ? jason : i 'll walk you to the elevator . sam : okay . sonny : take your time . sam : good to see you , sonny . jason : and congratulations again . i 'm very happy for you guys . sam : thank you . jason : be right back . sonny : all right . jason : hey . you feeling okay ? sam : yeah . i mean , you know .

[ scene_break ] kevin : why do n't i get us some coffee from my favorite place ? and when i come back , we can discuss breakfast options or go back to bed . laura : oh , what an excellent idea . hurry back . kevin : oh , i definitely will . [ door closes ] laura : [ chuckles ] oh . oh , dear . [ sighs ] no , no , no , no , no . should n't have done that . oops . oh , a novel . dr. kevin collins ' ... [ scene_break ] parker : it was pretty cowardly on my part -- taking off like that and only leaving a note . kristina : i mean , given that we just spent the night together and agreed to give us a try , it was a surprise , to say the least . parker : at the time , i thought it was for the best -- i did . but looking back , you deserved so much better than that . kristina : i know that my mother pressured you into staying away from me . i 'm really sorry . but if you listen to me , i can explain everything . parker : look , this is n't only about what your said or did . this is about me and my feelings , my choices , my behavior -- kristina : your feelings ... for me ? you mean , you were really attracted to me ? parker : [ sighing ] yes , kristina . i still am . [ scene_break ] alexis : are you actually suggesting that i would discredit my own testimony ? you , of all people , should know better than that , jordan , because you were on the other end of that wire that was ripped off my chest when he held his hand to my mouth and knife to my throat and almost killed me , no thanks to you . not only is that insulating to me , it 's -- it 's absurd . no one wants him convicted more than i do . jordan : alexis , i 'm well aware of what julian put you through . but before you agreed to wear that wire , you protected him for months . alexis : so ? jordan : so maybe you 're still protecting him . alexis : [ sighs ] jordan : i do n't know , you married him knowing that he was a murderer . he obviously convinced you that he would change , that he change for your sake . maybe he 's convinced you again . i do n't know . you 're an excellent lawyer , alexis . you know exactly how to influence a jury . maybe after all that he 's done , you still do n't want julian convicted . [ scene_break ] carly : i need to have that champagne delivered by tomorrow , or i 'm just going to find another distributor . well , if he does n't like it , he can call me directly . [ chuckles ] okay , thanks . bye . i 'm so sorry i was on the phone the entire time we were driving from the metro court . nelle : mm . you know , it sort of amazing watching you work . you handle everything so well . carly : wow . that took a long time to develop . [ both laugh ] carly : well , i used to be a really different person . but that 's a long story for another time . come on , you wanted to tell me why you did n't want sam and jason , who happen to be my and sonny 's closest friends , to know that you 're josslyn 's donor . nelle : well , i 'm a little uncomfortable with you treating me like i made some huge , noble sacrifice when i had nothing to do with the decision in the first place . you know , i 'm thrilled that josslyn was helped by my kidney , but , you know , i got the closure i needed , and i 've come to terms with what my parents did . i do n't want to dwell on it , and i definitely do n't want to be known for it . carly : wow . okay , you sound like josslyn . she does n't want to be known for the transplant . [ chuckles ] but jason 's family , you know ? not only is he my best friend , he is michael 's uncle . nelle : yeah . i mean , i see the resemblance . carly : yeah . not just in looks but -- jason 's fair , you know , incredible loyal , and he 's always willing to give people the benefit of the doubt . i mean , michael and jason , they have similar temperaments . all , by the way , i 'm saying is i want jason and sam to know about you . nelle : look , no offense , but can you just tell them after i leave ? i really do n't want to make a big deal out of it . carly : [ laughs ] when i was your age , i would have been demanding every bit of attention i could get out of the situation . you , nelle , have a maturity that i never did . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , how 's it going ? you seem fully recovered from the trip . jason : yeah , they got me on medication for the malaria right away , so all good . sonny : given any more thought on your second career as a pilot ? jason : [ laughs ] after that crash landing , yeah , no , not much of an accomplishment . sonny : well , you managed to get my son and my daughter - in - law off that island after that man was trying to kill them . to me , that 's a big accomplishment . jason : have you heard anything more about valentin ? sonny : [ sighs ] yeah . i had diane follow up . he was extradited . he 's locked up in greece . why ? jason : he was pretty good . he 's a pro . i do n't think he 'd give up too easy . sonny : all right . well , i 'll keep an eye out for spencer 's sake , for sam 's sake . you sure you want to marry back into that ? really ? [ both laugh ] jason : sam 's relatives , i mean , what are you gon na do , right ? but , yeah , i want to marry sam , which is why i need to talk to you . sonny : about the wedding ? listen . carly -- i 'll calm her down . you know how she gets . jason : i know how she gets . i know how she gets . whatever she plans is gon na be great . that 's not it . sonny : what can i do for you ? jason : well , see , um , i need a best man . [ scene_break ] kristina : this is fantastic ! i mean , we can just forget everything that happened , just start over . i am so glad that i came . parker : kris . kris , honey . wait . you 're not hearing me . we should 've never slept together . we should 've never gotten involved . i am your professor . i was the first woman that you had feelings for , that you were attracted to , and you got caught up in that . but we can never be a couple . i have nothing to give you . kristina : but you do . you have feelings for me . i 'm never happier than when i 'm with you . and that night that we made love was the best night of my life . i do n't understand why you would want to push me away . parker : kristina , listen to me . i 'm gon na go back to my wife . [ scene_break ] alexis : look , i am not proud of my altercation with kristina . no parent wants to fight with her child , particularly in public . but , as you can see , i 'm a little tense lately . so , no , i did at the time , and i certainly did n't plan to help julian by discrediting myself . the whole idea of that is -- it 's absurd . jordan : alexis , the visitor 's log indicates that you went to see julian in his cell . what the hell are you two discussing ? alexis : none of your damn business . i do n't appreciate this ambush , jordan . i do n't answer to you . in fact , i do n't answer to anyone right now , because i do n't have the time . i need to go talk to my daughter , go find her , because she did n't come home last night . jordan : your behavior yesterday -- it was erratic , and it was unlike you . so , if this is n't part of some deliberate scheme , then what is it ? you have emotional problems , then put them in check before this trial . alexis : like i said , i do n't answer to you . jordan : well , let me tell you something . you are not going to screw up this case , alexis . alexis : go to hell . seriously , go to hell . [ scene_break ] kevin : it is a beautiful morning . i think we should go to the waterfront for break ... fast . laura : what is this ? [ scene_break ] nelle : okay , so , i have all your contacts in my phone , mr. corinthos 's numbers , too , a list of food avery likes , her binky she needs to go to sleep , extra diapers , of course , a sun hat , sweater . carly : wow ! you are the most prepared babysitter i have ever met . and avery fell in love with you last night , so i 'm not worried . you guys are gon na have so much fun . nelle : oh , well , you know what ? i love kids . so that 's why i 'm a teacher 's aide . carly : yeah . nelle : but i should get going . um , morgan needs to get to work . carly : all right . well , you guys have fun . nelle : okay . [ cell phone rings ] nelle : oh . it 's my supervisor , mrs. o'brien . hello . hi , mrs. o'brien . we were just talking about you . [ chuckles ] what ? [ scene_break ] sonny : so , you want me to stand up for you when you marry sam ? you know , carly is not gon na like it . i mean , she expects to be your best person in the universe . jason : yeah . i -- i know . and carly knows how much she means to me , but ... i 'd be honored if you 'd be my best man . i know i have n't been around a lot -- sonny : well , the mess with nikolas and all that -- jason : look , you know , as my memories come back , i 've been thinking a lot about you and how much you taught me , how many times you said that family is the most important thing . and , that said , i ca n't think of anybody else i 'd like to have standing next to me when i marry sam . so , if you have any advice to give me now , i could -- sonny : advice ? with my track record ? i do n't think that 's a good idea . jason : well , look , i think you and carly have finally figured out this whole marriage thing . you know what 's important . sonny : well , it means a lot that you think that . [ cell phone rings ] sonny : [ clears throat ] it 's max . jason : take it . sonny : hello . what ? what website ? i do n't know -- i do n't ' know -- i do n't know what you 're talking -- okay , i 'll check it out . jason : what 's wrong ? sonny : i 'm not completely sure . [ scene_break ] andré : hi , beautiful . jordan : hey . andré : i hated that i had to leave so early this morning after such a wonderful night last night . but , then my patient cancelled , so i thought i 'd surprise you . what ? jordan : nothing . um , this is -- this is great . this is a great surprise . andré : mm . you do n't look like it 's so great . what 's going on ? jordan : alexis . [ scene_break ] alexis : only 100,000 views at this point . what a mess . [ knock on door ] alexis : you heard . sam : hi . whoa . heard about what ? alexis : never mind . sam : never mind ? alexis : okay . you left a message . what 's going on ? sam : um , so , um ... jason and i told sonny and carly about the engagement . we did n't say anything about the baby news , because i think i 'm not far along enough in my pregnancy to be saying anything to anybody yet . alexis : okay . i 'm not going to say anything . sam : okay . good . alexis : did you tell him that your wedding 's right around the corner and you do n't have any plans yet ? sam : yes , we did . and carly actually offered to have the wedding at her house , on the terrace , and we said yes . alexis : and that 's not good ? sam : oh , no , mom . it just occurred to me that i did n't even ask if we could have it here . i do n't want you to feel like i 'm excluding you from anything . alexis : honey . honestly , i 'm -- i 'm okay about it . sam : you sure ? alexis : no worries . i just want you to have the wedding that you want . sam : okay . thank you . alexis : and , truthfully , with all the publicity that 's going on ... [ cell phone ringing ] alexis : ... with your father and his upcoming trial , it 's probably best you do n't have the wedding here . [ ringing continues ] [ ringing stops ] sam : okay . um , molly texted me , and she wanted me to check in with you about last night . she did n't give me any details , but i can see that you 're not happy . you want to tell me what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] kevin : laura -- laura : i was n't snooping . i knocked this stuff over by accident , and i found this letter that makes it very clear that you have a publishing deal . kevin : can we talk about this , please ? laura : and then , i look at this manuscript about an unnamed woman with a history of mental illness who 's looking for her ex - husband , following clues from a dead woman . you are writing about me . when were you going to tell me about this ? i mean , i know we made a joke of it when we were on the island , but i did n't think that you would ever actually do that . are you just going to stand there and deny it ? kevin : no . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm honored that you asked me to be your best man . and i do n't know if i made myself clear , but the answer is yes . i will stand by you when you marry sam . for good this time . do n't be like , `` fourth time is a charm `` like me and carly . jason : this is definitely it . this is it . sonny : and , as far as the advice that you wanted -- be true to yourself and always protect your family . i think you 've -- you 've done both . jason : thanks . [ scene_break ] jordan : julian has been living beyond the law for way too long , and i 'm not going to let him wiggle out of this one . andré : jordan ... what 's wrong ? jordan : have you not been listening to me ? are you not listening ? i 'm telling you what 's wrong . andré : no . it seems to me that this is more than just you fearing good police work will go down the drain or that the force might somehow look bad if julian jerome is acquitted . jordan , what is really going on ? jordan : [ sighs ] there 's something that you should probably know . i used to work undercover with the dea , and i lost a lot of my life , and i damaged my relationship with my son because of julian jerome . he 's got to face justice right now . we finally , finally have a case . i 'm not going to let this happen , no matter what alexis or anyone else does . [ scene_break ] alexis : it 's been one hell of a morning , and i do n't want to wreck my time talking about something that should n't matter anyway . so , can we please just focus on you ? sam : okay . alexis : okay ? sam : all right , we 'll talk about whatever it is that you do n't want to talk about later . alexis : okay . sam : okay . so , jason is asking sonny to be his best man . and i ca n't really -- i do n't have it in my heart to decide between kristina and molly . and , to be honest with you , i could n't imagine anyone else standing up for me rather than you . so , would you be my best girl ? would you stand up for me ? alexis : i will be your best girl . sam : you will ? alexis : i will be your best mom . sam : good . alexis : i will walk you down the aisle . i will do whatever you want , because , clearly , your father wo n't be able to make it . sam : yeah . alexis : let 's not talk about him . i want to do anything i can to help you with your wedding . i also want to know when i can tell people about it , and i can brag about being a grandma again . sam : okay . alexis : okay . sam : sounds good . alexis : i love you so much . sam : i love you . alexis : and i want to spend more time with you , but there 's stuff i need to handle . sam : i know . i understand that , and i 'll let you do that . but when you 're ready to talk about it , yeah ? alexis : i will . sam : okay . alexis : you know . you know i will . sam : all right . i love you . alexis : aw , i love you so much more . go . sam : okay . i 'll see you soon . alexis : bye , baby . sam : bye . [ scene_break ] parker : amanda and i realize that we need to work on what we have . kristina : what you have ? you 're divorced . parker : not completely . we were in the process . kristina : oh , just shut up , parker ? i ca n't hear it . parker : i understand that this is hard . i just have to be honest with you about where things are . kristina : honesty has nothing to do with it . you lied to me ! parker : no , kristina . i did n't lie to you . kristina : that night at the metro court , you told me that your marriage was over , that it had been for a long time . parker : that 's what i believed at the time . kristina : you broke down , and i comforted you . that 's why we made love that night , because you let me believe that you were free to be with me . i idolized you . i thought you were this great person , someone to admire , to emulate , to love . i thought you had real feelings for me . but you used me , just like everyone said you would . parker : kris , it 's a very complicated situation . kristina : not really . it 's the oldest cliché in the book -- young student crushes on professor , professor is bored in the marriage , looking for a little outside action , plays into stupid and , you know , naive student , sleeps with them , kicks them to the curb , and then goes back to the spouse that they had never had any intention of leaving . and all those lectures about how i should discover myself and my sexuality -- that was just a big smoke screen , so you could avoid the truth about yourself . you 're a weak , selfish person , and i never want to see you again . [ scene_break ] kevin : i agreed to the original booking of february of 2015 . it was meant to be a non - fiction collection of cases i 've had , stories about patients and types of treatment , but the book just was n't coming together . i was badly stalled , and i was even considering giving the advance back . and then , out of the blue , you came to me , and you asked me to help you decipher helena 's codes . solving that mystery , following those clues -- that renewed my creativity . suddenly , i had the impetus to write again . it just was n't about the original book . laura : so you wrote about me ? kevin : yes . but let me be clear -- no one has seen anything that i 've written so far . laura : were you ever gon na tell me about any of this ? kevin : of course . of course , i was . i would never move forward without showing you the work and getting your approval . you do n't believe me . laura : look how long you 've been at this ! y - you never said a word to me . you never mentioned it once . you kept it from me . kevin : [ sighs ] laura , i never intended to betray your trust . laura : [ sighs ] i have one question . kevin : anything . laura : yeah . what part does our love - making play in any of this ? hmm ? is that just sort of a , i do n't know , a good conclusion to your story ? because i have a very different ending in mind . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . nelle , what 's wrong ? nelle : [ sighs ] there was a meeting with the superintendent of the county today . bottom line is , i lost my job . there were budget cuts . carly : i 'm so sorry . nelle : you know what , i 'm gon na be fine . it 's gon na be okay . i just -- mrs. o'brien said she 'd give me a good recommendation , but i got to get back to atlanta as soon as possible to start applying for jobs . carly : okay . well , mrs. o'brien could n't have been more complimentary about you . so i 'm sure her recommendations are going to go far . nelle : yeah . yeah . well , um , the sooner i get back , you know , the sooner i can apply for stuff . so , i 'm gon na enjoy my day with avery , and , uh , say goodbye to port charles since i 'll be leaving tomorrow . [ scene_break ] kevin : laura , please . i 'm certainly not going to publish that now . i 'll burn it . laura : good . kevin : laura , what happened between us last night has nothing to do with any book . laura : [ scoffs ] kevin : what happened between us is real . laura : am i supposed to just take your word on that ? you know , a lie of omission is still a lie . kevin : ca n't we talk about this ? laura : no . goodbye , kevin . [ scene_break ] sam : mmm . so , how 'd it go ? jason : it went well . sonny agreed to be my best man . sam : good . well , my mother agreed to be my matron of honor ... jason : good . sam : ... which i think is going to be really good for her , get her mind off all the craziness that 's going on with julian . jason : okay . you sound worried . what 's going on ? sam : well , i mean , something happened , and i asked my mom about it . she does n't want to talk about it , so i did n't want to push . so , that 's that . i did n't push . okay . you have your best man . i 've got my matron of honor . we 've got a date , a location . now we just need someone to marry us . jason : oh , yeah , that . i got that covered . sam : what ? jason : i got it covered . sam : what ? jason : i got it covered . sam : wait a minute . what is that supposed to mean ? jason : i got it covered . [ scene_break ] parker : kristina , i did n't mean -- kristina : just go ! go the hell away . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] alexis : [ sighs ] hi . sonny : what happened ? ! alexis : i do n't want to talk about it . sonny : well , you know what , that 's my daughter in this picture spread all over the media , so you 're gon na tell me what happened right now ! [ next_on ] sonny ( to alexis ) : what are you going to do to make it right ? paul ( to tracy ) : convicting julian is my highest priority . ava ( to julian ) : i know that you 've got some fight left in you . elizabeth ( to franco ) : our upcoming date has been on my mind . hayden ( to laura ) : going somewhere ? heather ( to naomi ) : you 'd better pay up or else . laura ( to robert ) : i do n't believe it ! | alexis finds out , unknown to her , that what she thought was a private confrontation between herself and kristina , at the metro court , has been made public . jordan goes to confront her about that and questions if alexis did not purposely `` plan `` this in order to diminish her own credibility in court when she testifies against julian . hearing that , alexis angrily demands to know why she 'd even consider such a thing , reminding her that because the cops have failed to do their jobs with julian , she wore a wire and he almost murdered her . yet , jordan reminds her , that very recently before she agreed to wear the wire , she was protecting julian for months , agreed to marry him and believe him when he said he 'd changed . so how is she supposed to trust or believe that alexis would not do it again ? alexis is furious with that and when jordan is alone with andré , he tells her he can clearly see she has some very personal anger toward this beyond simply being the police commissioner who wants to put julian away . she then reveals to him , for the first time , that for many years , she went undercover for the dea and it cost her many years of her life as well as her relationship with her son . and so , now that they 've finally got all they need to put julian away for good , she can not bear the thought of him getting away with his crimes again and can not let anything or anyone pose a threat to that . sonny is happily with sam and jason after finding out they are getting married when he gets notification of alexis ' and kristina 's public brawl and goes to confront her , reminding her it 's his business since it involves his daughter . kristina goes to see parker and is once again `` taken `` by getting her hopes up when parker admits she still has feelings for her . yet parker declares she 's getting back with her wife , to which kristina concludes she knows parker has been using , manipulating and deceiving her and she never wants to see her again . laura is happily with kevin after they 've spent the night together . she makes it clear she wants to be with him yet she discovers he 's been secretly writing a book that sounds like he 's writing about her without telling her . this changes everything for her as she tells him she wonders if he has been deceiving and using her and she tells him she no longer wants to be with him . carly is ready to get nelle started and has complete trust that she can be the perfect nanny for avery . yet she finds it odd that when she happily introduces nelle to jason and sam , that nelle does not want hers ' and sonny 's best friends to know that she saved josslyn 's life by donating her kidney . nelle still knows how to make carly believe she is a hero . yet she suddenly declares she 's gotten a call from her boss in atlanta to inform her an issue has occurred that requires her to return there . carly suspects nothing with that although it may be cause for concern . | <s>[INST] laura : mmm . [ sighs ] good morning . kevin : good morning . so , i hope no regrets crept in since last night . [ scene_break ] sam : you could have ordered an omelet . jason : yeah , eggs are going to make your morning sickness worse . so i can suffer through it . sam : [ sighs ] jason : how 's that toast ? sam : delicious . jason : [ laughs ] sam : i think i 'm going to be okay in a couple of hours , though . it does n't seem to last past noon . which makes me really lucky , because i think a lot of women a nauseous their entire first trimester . jason : sounds awful . sorry . you think you 're going to be able to hold it together long enough to tell the news ? sam : [ chuckles ] yes . i think i 'm going to be okay . did you , maybe , want to tell them about the baby ? jason : nah . i think one step at a time . sam : really ? jason : you know , it 's probably all they can take . sam : okay . jason : hey . carly : you guys never ask us for breakfast , so what 's going on ? sam : okay . well , um ... we have some news . jason : we 're getting married . carly : [ gasps ] sonny : it 's about damn time . carly : aaaah !

[ scene_break ] jordan : alexis , please . alexis : thank you . jordan : thank you for coming . alexis : uh , you were very insistent on my being here . what was so important that you could n't tell me over the phone ? jordan : i needed privacy . i could n't possibly tell you this over the phone . alexis : and what would that be ? jordan : this . alexis : what the hell is that ? jordan : that is what i want to know . alexis , what the hell are you doing ? [ scene_break ] sam : yeah . so , we 're doing it , basically , pretty soon . um , what are you guys doing september 2nd ? carly : oh , my gosh . that 's so soon . sam : yeah . carly : okay , we can do that . and you can have a great wedding and reception here at the hotel . i will just bump whoever has the place rented , and i 'll comp them -- jason : what ? no , no . we 're good , thanks . do n't do that . carly : oh , do n't tell me you rented out that chinese restaurant for your ceremony . sam : no , we do not have any plans to go back to noodle buddha , although , i do love that place . jason : [ laughs ] we really want just an easy wedding . sam : yeah , we want it simple where we can just be ourselves , friends and family , that 's it . carly : you mean where jason does n't have to dress up and wear a suit ? jason : exactly , yeah . [ laughs ] carly : that 's exactly what we 're thinking . sam : and you 're practically the first people we 've told , so if you do n't mind keeping quiet until we 're able to invite our other guests , that 'd be great . jason : you know what ? planning this out , maybe just a quick , simple ceremony at the courthouse -- sonny : jason , we get that you want it simple . jason : yeah . carly : no . no , that is totally unacceptable . sonny : what do you mean , `` no ? `` here 's the way it works . they 're getting married , so you got no choice . carly : i say i do have a choice . [ laughter ] carly : i have a choice . you 're my best friend . you tell me you 're getting married , and then you i ca n't do anything to celebrate . jason : you can show up and be part of the big day . that would be great . carly : oh , i know , i know ! let us host your wedding at our house , please ? we can have a simple small reception . you know how beautiful the terrace is . sam : oh , no , no . there 's no need to go and do that . carly : i know there 's no need , but i really want to . sonny : we want to contribute on your special day . we want to show how happy we are , how much you mean to us . carly : yes . sonny : that 's it . carly : say yes , say yes . you 're going have to say yes . i 'm not going to stop asking if you do n't say yes . jason : yes , yes , yes . carly : yay ! [ laughs ] thank you very much . okay , great . you 're not going to be sorry . this is going to be a perfect , very small , not very loud , ceremony . it should be all about sam and jason . sam : that sounds nice . carly : okay , so who do you want to invite ? i mean , i know you 're gon na want your sisters and your mom there , and monica -- oh , my gosh , monica is going to be so thrilled . you -- [ groans ] i 'm sorry . one second . -hey . sonny : look , she 's distracted . you want to run ? sam : we ca n't just leave . sonny : just leave -- sam : i can run in heels , so ... nelle : sorry , i did n't want to interrupt . um , i know they were a few details you wanted to go over before i pick up avery . carly : yes , but first , i want you to meet to very important people to us . our very good friends , sam mccall , jason morgan . this is nelle hayes . sam : hi . nelle : hi . carly : avery 's hanging out with morgan right now , but nelle is going to be avery 's babysitter for the day . nelle : nice to meet you . carly : and , well , um , nelle is n't just a babysitter , she 's very important to our family -- nelle : mrs. corinthos ... can i talk to you privately ? [ scene_break ] laura : no regrets . how can you even ask that ? kevin : [ sighs ] you know ... laura : hm ? kevin : i have a confession to make . [ sighs ] my cryptography consultations usually do n't end up like this . laura : [ chuckles ] i hope not . kevin : [ laughs ] laura : yeah , when i asked you to help me crack helena 's code , i -- i did n't foresee this . i mean , if i knew that anything like this was going to happen , i would have stopped working with you immediately . kevin : what a minute . you said no regrets . laura : i regret putting you in danger . kevin : you did no such thing . laura : you got shot . kevin : i followed you to greece . after everything that we 've been through , i wanted to be with you when you went to the island to look for the nikolas . okay , actually , i just wanted to be with you . and there i go bringing it up , painful memories . [ sighs ] for a shrink , i can be incredibly dumb sometimes . laura : [ sighs ] it 's okay . i would be mourning nikolas now no matter what . you have made it bearable . you also helped me outmaneuver helena for the first time . thank you . kevin : your welcome ? [ chuckles ] though i 'm a little unclear on how i helped you get one over on helena cassadine . laura : well , the scavenger hunt that she sent me on was meant to hurt me . she wanted me to relive all the most painful moments in my life and the biggest mistakes that i 've made , but it backfired . [ both laugh ] laura : 'cause it lead to a very unexpected happiness . [ kiss ] [ scene_break ] parker : i did get your message , but i did n't call you back , kristina . kristina : [ chuckling ] yes , you did . parker : what ? no , i ... oh , god , i must have inadvertently pocket - dialed you . i 'm -- i 'm sorry , i had no intention to call you . kristina : are you sure you did n't just have second thoughts and hang up ? parker : no , i -- i did n't intend to contact you . i 'm sorry that you got that impression . kristina : never mind . bye . parker : wait , kristina , wait . um ... kristina : what ? i promise i wo n't come back here again . parker : no , no , it 's not that . the truth is you have been on my mind . kristina : i have ? parker : very much so . i ... i 'm sorry . [ laughs ] it was just such a shock to see you here . but now that you 're here , we should talk . [ scene_break ] alexis : how did you get this ? jordan : i have a source at tmi . alexis : [ sighs ] jordan : she used to be serious journalist but scandal sells , and she has to pay the bills , so ... anyway , she 's knows that you figure prominently in case that i 've worked , and she gave me a heads up . the accompanying article that goes along with this goes into some detail about a scene at the metro court last night between you and your daughter . alexis : well , she did n't contact me about it . jordan : this is going online . this is going online with the exact caption , `` violence runs in the family , `` within , i do n't know , within the hour . it 's quickly going to go viral after that . alexis : okay , jordan . then kill it . jordan : i ca n't . i tried . the publisher is not going to sit on such a explosive story . alexis : well , the story is out of context , the photo is out of context -- it 's all misleading . it was an unpleasant moment between a mother and a daughter . it happens . she walked away , i grabbed her arm . i was angry , not violent . jordan : that 's not what the photo says . this is a very direct and public comment on your character and your temperament . alexis : okay . so i like an ass in public . that 's my problem . jordan : no . it 's not just your problem . you 're a key witness in a major case , alexis . some of your actions surrounding julian 's arrest can be questionable and confusing for any jury . it 's publicity like this , along with your suspension from the bar , that cast doubts on your testimony against julian . or was that your intention all along ? alexis : [ chuckling ] i 'm sorry . i honestly do n't know what you mean . jordan : i 'm simply asking you what i know will be on da hornsby 's mind , and it 's certainly on mine . alexis : jordan , honestly , i have a splitting headache . you 're being way to cryptic right now . jordan : did you arrange for this very public incident as a way to discredit yourself as a witness against julian 's case ? [ scene_break ] carly : of course . can you wait for me at the bar ? i 'll be right over . nelle : yeah , great . sam : all right . nelle : it was nice to meet you both . sam : you too . nelle : bye , mr. corinthos . sonny : bye . jason : you going to tell us what that was all about ? carly : well , if it 's what i think it is , it 's really no big deal . but i do have to get going because i have to get avery squared away . but thank you . thank you for the news . sam : no , thank you . carly : congratulations . this has made my day , it really has . [ laughter ] sam : we appreciate your enthusiasm . carly : this is exactly what i wanted -- you guys back together . it 's about time you got your act together . [ laughs ] jason : [ clears throat ] thank you . carly : [ chuckles ] there 's nothing i would n't do for you . you know that . jason : [ sighs ] sam : can you do me a favor ? i know that my sisters ' are gon na probably want to help in planning the wedding . can you just rein them in ? no white doves , no carriage , nothing like that . carly : it 's going to be simple , sweet , and absolutely beautiful . sam : thank you . jason : you know i love you , right ? carly : [ squeals ] i do , i do . and i love you , too . and i ca n't wait to discuss centerpieces with you . jason : oh , not even funny . not even a little bit . carly : i 'll see you later , okay ? jason : wow . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . [ laughs ] nelle : hey . hey , sorry if i seemed a little rude earlier . carly : not rude , concerned . so just tell me why you did n't want sam and jason to know that you 're josslyn 's kidney donor . nelle : do you mind if we talk about his privately ? carly : of course . nelle : yeah . carly : okay . we have to get to the house for avery anyway , so come on . [ scene_break ] sam : actually , i need to take off , as well . so i will meet you back here later , okay ? jason : i 'll walk you to the elevator . sam : okay . sonny : take your time . sam : good to see you , sonny . jason : and congratulations again . i 'm very happy for you guys . sam : thank you . jason : be right back . sonny : all right . jason : hey . you feeling okay ? sam : yeah . i mean , you know . [ chuckles ] yeah . i 'm just gon na -- i 'll give you guys some time . i 'll be back later , okay ? jason : okay . be safe . sam : will do . jason : hey . sonny : big news . jason : yeah , big news . what , man ? sonny : i just get a feeling there 's something you 're not telling me . jason : well , there is . [ scene_break ] kevin : why do n't i get us some coffee from my favorite place ? and when i come back , we can discuss breakfast options or go back to bed . laura : oh , what an excellent idea . hurry back . kevin : oh , i definitely will . [ door closes ] laura : [ chuckles ] oh . oh , dear . [ sighs ] no , no , no , no , no . should n't have done that . oops . oh , a novel . dr. kevin collins ' ... [ scene_break ] parker : it was pretty cowardly on my part -- taking off like that and only leaving a note . kristina : i mean , given that we just spent the night together and agreed to give us a try , it was a surprise , to say the least . parker : at the time , i thought it was for the best -- i did . but looking back , you deserved so much better than that . kristina : i know that my mother pressured you into staying away from me . i 'm really sorry . but if you listen to me , i can explain everything . parker : look , this is n't only about what your said or did . this is about me and my feelings , my choices , my behavior -- kristina : your feelings ... for me ? you mean , you were really attracted to me ? parker : [ sighing ] yes , kristina . i still am . [ scene_break ] alexis : are you actually suggesting that i would discredit my own testimony ? you , of all people , should know better than that , jordan , because you were on the other end of that wire that was ripped off my chest when he held his hand to my mouth and knife to my throat and almost killed me , no thanks to you . not only is that insulating to me , it 's -- it 's absurd . no one wants him convicted more than i do . jordan : alexis , i 'm well aware of what julian put you through . but before you agreed to wear that wire , you protected him for months . alexis : so ? jordan : so maybe you 're still protecting him . alexis : [ sighs ] jordan : i do n't know , you married him knowing that he was a murderer . he obviously convinced you that he would change , that he change for your sake . maybe he 's convinced you again . i do n't know . you 're an excellent lawyer , alexis . you know exactly how to influence a jury . maybe after all that he 's done , you still do n't want julian convicted . [ scene_break ] carly : i need to have that champagne delivered by tomorrow , or i 'm just going to find another distributor . well , if he does n't like it , he can call me directly . [ chuckles ] okay , thanks . bye . i 'm so sorry i was on the phone the entire time we were driving from the metro court . nelle : mm . you know , it sort of amazing watching you work . you handle everything so well . carly : wow . that took a long time to develop . [ both laugh ] carly : well , i used to be a really different person . but that 's a long story for another time . come on , you wanted to tell me why you did n't want sam and jason , who happen to be my and sonny 's closest friends , to know that you 're josslyn 's donor . nelle : well , i 'm a little uncomfortable with you treating me like i made some huge , noble sacrifice when i had nothing to do with the decision in the first place . you know , i 'm thrilled that josslyn was helped by my kidney , but , you know , i got the closure i needed , and i 've come to terms with what my parents did . i do n't want to dwell on it , and i definitely do n't want to be known for it . carly : wow . okay , you sound like josslyn . she does n't want to be known for the transplant . [ chuckles ] but jason 's family , you know ? not only is he my best friend , he is michael 's uncle . nelle : yeah . i mean , i see the resemblance . carly : yeah . not just in looks but -- jason 's fair , you know , incredible loyal , and he 's always willing to give people the benefit of the doubt . i mean , michael and jason , they have similar temperaments . all , by the way , i 'm saying is i want jason and sam to know about you . nelle : look , no offense , but can you just tell them after i leave ? i really do n't want to make a big deal out of it . carly : [ laughs ] when i was your age , i would have been demanding every bit of attention i could get out of the situation . you , nelle , have a maturity that i never did . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , how 's it going ? you seem fully recovered from the trip . jason : yeah , they got me on medication for the malaria right away , so all good . sonny : given any more thought on your second career as a pilot ? jason : [ laughs ] after that crash landing , yeah , no , not much of an accomplishment . sonny : well , you managed to get my son and my daughter - in - law off that island after that man was trying to kill them . to me , that 's a big accomplishment . jason : have you heard anything more about valentin ? sonny : [ sighs ] yeah . i had diane follow up . he was extradited . he 's locked up in greece . why ? jason : he was pretty good . he 's a pro . i do n't think he 'd give up too easy . sonny : all right . well , i 'll keep an eye out for spencer 's sake , for sam 's sake . you sure you want to marry back into that ? really ? [ both laugh ] jason : sam 's relatives , i mean , what are you gon na do , right ? but , yeah , i want to marry sam , which is why i need to talk to you . sonny : about the wedding ? listen . carly -- i 'll calm her down . you know how she gets . jason : i know how she gets . i know how she gets . whatever she plans is gon na be great . that 's not it . sonny : what can i do for you ? jason : well , see , um , i need a best man . [ scene_break ] kristina : this is fantastic ! i mean , we can just forget everything that happened , just start over . i am so glad that i came . parker : kris . kris , honey . wait . you 're not hearing me . we should 've never slept together . we should 've never gotten involved . i am your professor . i was the first woman that you had feelings for , that you were attracted to , and you got caught up in that . but we can never be a couple . i have nothing to give you . kristina : but you do . you have feelings for me . i 'm never happier than when i 'm with you . and that night that we made love was the best night of my life . i do n't understand why you would want to push me away . parker : kristina , listen to me . i 'm gon na go back to my wife . [ scene_break ] alexis : look , i am not proud of my altercation with kristina . no parent wants to fight with her child , particularly in public . but , as you can see , i 'm a little tense lately . so , no , i did at the time , and i certainly did n't plan to help julian by discrediting myself . the whole idea of that is -- it 's absurd . jordan : alexis , the visitor 's log indicates that you went to see julian in his cell . what the hell are you two discussing ? alexis : none of your damn business . i do n't appreciate this ambush , jordan . i do n't answer to you . in fact , i do n't answer to anyone right now , because i do n't have the time . i need to go talk to my daughter , go find her , because she did n't come home last night . jordan : your behavior yesterday -- it was erratic , and it was unlike you . so , if this is n't part of some deliberate scheme , then what is it ? you have emotional problems , then put them in check before this trial . alexis : like i said , i do n't answer to you . jordan : well , let me tell you something . you are not going to screw up this case , alexis . alexis : go to hell . seriously , go to hell . [ scene_break ] kevin : it is a beautiful morning . i think we should go to the waterfront for break ... fast . laura : what is this ? [ scene_break ] nelle : okay , so , i have all your contacts in my phone , mr. corinthos 's numbers , too , a list of food avery likes , her binky she needs to go to sleep , extra diapers , of course , a sun hat , sweater . carly : wow ! you are the most prepared babysitter i have ever met . and avery fell in love with you last night , so i 'm not worried . you guys are gon na have so much fun . nelle : oh , well , you know what ? i love kids . so that 's why i 'm a teacher 's aide . carly : yeah . nelle : but i should get going . um , morgan needs to get to work . carly : all right . well , you guys have fun . nelle : okay . [ cell phone rings ] nelle : oh . it 's my supervisor , mrs. o'brien . hello . hi , mrs. o'brien . we were just talking about you . [ chuckles ] what ? [ scene_break ] sonny : so , you want me to stand up for you when you marry sam ? you know , carly is not gon na like it . i mean , she expects to be your best person in the universe . jason : yeah . i -- i know . and carly knows how much she means to me , but ... i 'd be honored if you 'd be my best man . i know i have n't been around a lot -- sonny : well , the mess with nikolas and all that -- jason : look , you know , as my memories come back , i 've been thinking a lot about you and how much you taught me , how many times you said that family is the most important thing . and , that said , i ca n't think of anybody else i 'd like to have standing next to me when i marry sam . so , if you have any advice to give me now , i could -- sonny : advice ? with my track record ? i do n't think that 's a good idea . jason : well , look , i think you and carly have finally figured out this whole marriage thing . you know what 's important . sonny : well , it means a lot that you think that . [ cell phone rings ] sonny : [ clears throat ] it 's max . jason : take it . sonny : hello . what ? what website ? i do n't know -- i do n't ' know -- i do n't know what you 're talking -- okay , i 'll check it out . jason : what 's wrong ? sonny : i 'm not completely sure . [ scene_break ] andré : hi , beautiful . jordan : hey . andré : i hated that i had to leave so early this morning after such a wonderful night last night . but , then my patient cancelled , so i thought i 'd surprise you . what ? jordan : nothing . um , this is -- this is great . this is a great surprise . andré : mm . you do n't look like it 's so great . what 's going on ? jordan : alexis . [ scene_break ] alexis : only 100,000 views at this point . what a mess . [ knock on door ] alexis : you heard . sam : hi . whoa . heard about what ? alexis : never mind . sam : never mind ? alexis : okay . you left a message . what 's going on ? sam : um , so , um ... jason and i told sonny and carly about the engagement . we did n't say anything about the baby news , because i think i 'm not far along enough in my pregnancy to be saying anything to anybody yet . alexis : okay . i 'm not going to say anything . sam : okay . good . alexis : did you tell him that your wedding 's right around the corner and you do n't have any plans yet ? sam : yes , we did . and carly actually offered to have the wedding at her house , on the terrace , and we said yes . alexis : and that 's not good ? sam : oh , no , mom . it just occurred to me that i did n't even ask if we could have it here . i do n't want you to feel like i 'm excluding you from anything . alexis : honey . honestly , i 'm -- i 'm okay about it . sam : you sure ? alexis : no worries . i just want you to have the wedding that you want . sam : okay . thank you . alexis : and , truthfully , with all the publicity that 's going on ... [ cell phone ringing ] alexis : ... with your father and his upcoming trial , it 's probably best you do n't have the wedding here . [ ringing continues ] [ ringing stops ] sam : okay . um , molly texted me , and she wanted me to check in with you about last night . she did n't give me any details , but i can see that you 're not happy . you want to tell me what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] kevin : laura -- laura : i was n't snooping . i knocked this stuff over by accident , and i found this letter that makes it very clear that you have a publishing deal . kevin : can we talk about this , please ? laura : and then , i look at this manuscript about an unnamed woman with a history of mental illness who 's looking for her ex - husband , following clues from a dead woman . you are writing about me . when were you going to tell me about this ? i mean , i know we made a joke of it when we were on the island , but i did n't think that you would ever actually do that . are you just going to stand there and deny it ? kevin : no . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm honored that you asked me to be your best man . and i do n't know if i made myself clear , but the answer is yes . i will stand by you when you marry sam . for good this time . do n't be like , `` fourth time is a charm `` like me and carly . jason : this is definitely it . this is it . sonny : and , as far as the advice that you wanted -- be true to yourself and always protect your family . i think you 've -- you 've done both . jason : thanks . [ scene_break ] jordan : julian has been living beyond the law for way too long , and i 'm not going to let him wiggle out of this one . andré : jordan ... what 's wrong ? jordan : have you not been listening to me ? are you not listening ? i 'm telling you what 's wrong . andré : no . it seems to me that this is more than just you fearing good police work will go down the drain or that the force might somehow look bad if julian jerome is acquitted . jordan , what is really going on ? jordan : [ sighs ] there 's something that you should probably know . i used to work undercover with the dea , and i lost a lot of my life , and i damaged my relationship with my son because of julian jerome . he 's got to face justice right now . we finally , finally have a case . i 'm not going to let this happen , no matter what alexis or anyone else does . [ scene_break ] alexis : it 's been one hell of a morning , and i do n't want to wreck my time talking about something that should n't matter anyway . so , can we please just focus on you ? sam : okay . alexis : okay ? sam : all right , we 'll talk about whatever it is that you do n't want to talk about later . alexis : okay . sam : okay . so , jason is asking sonny to be his best man . and i ca n't really -- i do n't have it in my heart to decide between kristina and molly . and , to be honest with you , i could n't imagine anyone else standing up for me rather than you . so , would you be my best girl ? would you stand up for me ? alexis : i will be your best girl . sam : you will ? alexis : i will be your best mom . sam : good . alexis : i will walk you down the aisle . i will do whatever you want , because , clearly , your father wo n't be able to make it . sam : yeah . alexis : let 's not talk about him . i want to do anything i can to help you with your wedding . i also want to know when i can tell people about it , and i can brag about being a grandma again . sam : okay . alexis : okay . sam : sounds good . alexis : i love you so much . sam : i love you . alexis : and i want to spend more time with you , but there 's stuff i need to handle . sam : i know . i understand that , and i 'll let you do that . but when you 're ready to talk about it , yeah ? alexis : i will . sam : okay . alexis : you know . you know i will . sam : all right . i love you . alexis : aw , i love you so much more . go . sam : okay . i 'll see you soon . alexis : bye , baby . sam : bye . [ scene_break ] parker : amanda and i realize that we need to work on what we have . kristina : what you have ? you 're divorced . parker : not completely . we were in the process . kristina : oh , just shut up , parker ? i ca n't hear it . parker : i understand that this is hard . i just have to be honest with you about where things are . kristina : honesty has nothing to do with it . you lied to me ! parker : no , kristina . i did n't lie to you . kristina : that night at the metro court , you told me that your marriage was over , that it had been for a long time . parker : that 's what i believed at the time . kristina : you broke down , and i comforted you . that 's why we made love that night , because you let me believe that you were free to be with me . i idolized you . i thought you were this great person , someone to admire , to emulate , to love . i thought you had real feelings for me . but you used me , just like everyone said you would . parker : kris , it 's a very complicated situation . kristina : not really . it 's the oldest cliché in the book -- young student crushes on professor , professor is bored in the marriage , looking for a little outside action , plays into stupid and , you know , naive student , sleeps with them , kicks them to the curb , and then goes back to the spouse that they had never had any intention of leaving . and all those lectures about how i should discover myself and my sexuality -- that was just a big smoke screen , so you could avoid the truth about yourself . you 're a weak , selfish person , and i never want to see you again . [ scene_break ] kevin : i agreed to the original booking of february of 2015 . it was meant to be a non - fiction collection of cases i 've had , stories about patients and types of treatment , but the book just was n't coming together . i was badly stalled , and i was even considering giving the advance back . and then , out of the blue , you came to me , and you asked me to help you decipher helena 's codes . solving that mystery , following those clues -- that renewed my creativity . suddenly , i had the impetus to write again . it just was n't about the original book . laura : so you wrote about me ? kevin : yes . but let me be clear -- no one has seen anything that i 've written so far . laura : were you ever gon na tell me about any of this ? kevin : of course . of course , i was . i would never move forward without showing you the work and getting your approval . you do n't believe me . laura : look how long you 've been at this ! y - you never said a word to me . you never mentioned it once . you kept it from me . kevin : [ sighs ] laura , i never intended to betray your trust . laura : [ sighs ] i have one question . kevin : anything . laura : yeah . what part does our love - making play in any of this ? hmm ? is that just sort of a , i do n't know , a good conclusion to your story ? because i have a very different ending in mind . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . nelle , what 's wrong ? nelle : [ sighs ] there was a meeting with the superintendent of the county today . bottom line is , i lost my job . there were budget cuts . carly : i 'm so sorry . nelle : you know what , i 'm gon na be fine . it 's gon na be okay . i just -- mrs. o'brien said she 'd give me a good recommendation , but i got to get back to atlanta as soon as possible to start applying for jobs . carly : okay . well , mrs. o'brien could n't have been more complimentary about you . so i 'm sure her recommendations are going to go far . nelle : yeah . yeah . well , um , the sooner i get back , you know , the sooner i can apply for stuff . so , i 'm gon na enjoy my day with avery , and , uh , say goodbye to port charles since i 'll be leaving tomorrow . [ scene_break ] kevin : laura , please . i 'm certainly not going to publish that now . i 'll burn it . laura : good . kevin : laura , what happened between us last night has nothing to do with any book . laura : [ scoffs ] kevin : what happened between us is real . laura : am i supposed to just take your word on that ? you know , a lie of omission is still a lie . kevin : ca n't we talk about this ? laura : no . goodbye , kevin . [ scene_break ] sam : mmm . so , how 'd it go ? jason : it went well . sonny agreed to be my best man . sam : good . well , my mother agreed to be my matron of honor ... jason : good . sam : ... which i think is going to be really good for her , get her mind off all the craziness that 's going on with julian . jason : okay . you sound worried . what 's going on ? sam : well , i mean , something happened , and i asked my mom about it . she does n't want to talk about it , so i did n't want to push . so , that 's that . i did n't push . okay . you have your best man . i 've got my matron of honor . we 've got a date , a location . now we just need someone to marry us . jason : oh , yeah , that . i got that covered . sam : what ? jason : i got it covered . sam : what ? jason : i got it covered . sam : wait a minute . what is that supposed to mean ? jason : i got it covered .

old todd : hey , shorty , you 're all grown up , huh ? i knew you 'd believe me . starr : ok . so you know my nickname . let 's see what else you know about my family and me . old todd : my family , too . starr : that 's what we 're going to find out . [ scene_break ] dani : destiny is a smart girl . she 'll figure this out . just wish she 'd told me sooner . shaun : i do n't think destiny could admit to herself that she was having a baby -- dani : i think you 're right . shaun : but there 's no denying it now . [ scene_break ] vivian : your pregnancy is normal . destiny : i guess that 's good news ? vivian : yeah , but now you have some tough decisions to make , and you need to make them right away . [ scene_break ] blair : well , you have finally told me the truth about your history with todd , no matter how horrible it is . tomás : you 've always deserved to know . blair : no . what i deserved to know is which of these two men is the father of my children . tomás : once mcbain gets the results of the dna test , you 'll know . blair : oh , tomás , i do n't think you 've noticed this about me , but patience is not one of my many , many virtues . tomás : meaning ? blair : well , the way i see it , we need to figure out what happened to todd from the time you dropped him off to that rogue agent baker till he walked back into town with a new face 8 years ago . tomás : yes . fortunately , the only person that knows exactly what happened to todd is todd . [ scene_break ] jack : you 're my father . i 'm on your side , and i always will be . todd : thanks , jack . i 'm glad you believe i 'm your father . jack : yeah . i do , even if starr does n't . todd : huh ? [ scene_break ] starr : if you are my father , like you say that you are , then you wo n't have any trouble answering a few questions . old todd : is this a test ? [ scene_break ] john : the answers you 're looking for are in this envelope . viki : why ? what is it ? john : it 's the dna test results on your brother and the man we have in our holding cell . this will tell us which one of them is the real todd manning . [ scene_break ] shaun : i ca n't even wrap my head around it . my baby sister is having a baby . dani : i know . it 's just -- shaun : wrong , especially since matthew buchanan is n't here to help out . dani : that 's not his fault . shaun , you know he would be here for destiny if he could . shaun : i know . it 's just that it 's bad enough that destiny has to go through this at all . she should n't have to do it by herself . dani : she 's not by herself . she 's got you and dr. wright , and she has me . i 'm not going anywhere . shaun : i know that . destiny is lucky to have you as a friend . she 's gon na need you . vivian : destiny would like you to come in for a consultation . not you , shaun . she wants dani . [ scene_break ] tomás : did mcbain give you any idea when to expect the results from the dna test ? blair : oh , i do n't know how long i can wait . my family is completely turned upside down . tomás : my family , too . blair : well , then we both have a lot at stake , do n't we ? we both need to know who the real todd is . what we know for sure is that baker ordered you to kill todd 8 years ago . tomás : but then he changed his orders once i found todd nearly beaten to death in that tomb . instead , he told me to bring todd in . blair : and then months later , he shows his face in llanview with a completely different face . tomás : and the only person who knows what happened in between is todd . blair : well , you know what ? we need to talk to todd . i want to hear his side of the story right now . [ scene_break ] john : what do you say we open these together ? viki : do you know , i 'm almost afraid to know the results ? i mean , what if i find out that the man that i 've been loyal to and been forgiving and defending all these years is n't my brother at all ? he 's an imposter . john : sounds like the guy downstairs made quite an impression on you . viki : john , that man not only has todd 's face . he has his memories , all of them . he knows things about our history that no one else could know . he knows details of private conversations between us . john : he does ? viki : yes , he does . he reminded me of a time that i came upon him in the cemetery . this was 18 years ago . starr was a baby . he had been gone for a long time . we all thought he was dead . john : lightning strikes twice . viki : he told me that i was the one person above all else and anyone else that he could trust . it 's like he 'd stabbed me in the heart because if he 's todd , and he seems to be , that means that i have been betraying my brother for years . i 've been loving and loyal to an imposter . how could i have done that ? john : you ca n't beat yourself up about that . viki : ca n't i ? john : no . no . you ca n't . you know , the more interesting question for me is , how can someone like you go to bat for someone like him for all these years , no matter who he is ? [ scene_break ] starr : you are damn right this is a test . old todd : oh , my god . starr : i was in shock . old todd : well , probably , but i could see in your eyes that you know who i am . starr : maybe you got me when you called me shorty , but that is not enough to convince me . if you are and want to prove that you are who you say you are , then you are gon na have to come up with the goods . old todd : ok . fine . go ahead . starr : ok . old todd : fire away . starr : first question -- when i was a little girl , how did we communicate when you were away ? old todd : through a stuffed frog . starr : name . old todd : fred . starr : that 's not enough . full name . old todd : fred the magic frog . next ? [ scene_break ] téa : jack , did starr actually say that she does n't believe that todd is really her father ? todd : of course she did n't , did she ? what did she tell you ? jack : i do n't know . she was saying all kinds of crazy stuff . todd : yeah ? like what ? jack : like about , you know , how you were with your old face , how you acted different then . todd : and where is she now ? jack : i do n't know , but do n't listen to her , dad . she 's wrong . todd : all right . thanks , buddy . really means a lot that someone i know believes in me . so jack is on my side . apparently , the jury is still out on starr . where do you stand ? [ scene_break ] shaun : so that 's how it 's gon na be ? my little sister thinks i 'm gon na sit out here in the waiting room while she goes through the toughest time in her life ? vivian : she asked for dani . i 'm sure she 'll tell you all about it later . shaun : i 'm the one taking care of her now . i have the right to be in there . vivian : i know , but she 's my patient , and it 's my job to make sure that she 's comfortable and to protect her privacy . shaun : and i 'm not going to make her uncomfortable , and i 'm not gon na sit out here and be quiet . destiny : shaun , i just want dani in here , ok ? shaun : i get that . i 'm glad that she 's here for you , but i love you , little d . destiny : i know . it 's just -- shaun : you think i 'm gon na embarrass you ? destiny : i do n't know . shaun : i can keep it in check . little d. this family has had too many secrets , and it has torn us apart . so from now on , we should n't hide anything . so i 'm asking you , please , let me come in and be a part of this . destiny : ok . [ scene_break ] todd : what 's the matter ? cat got your tongue ? you know what we should do is get dani down here . we can take a vote , and maybe i can convince her that i 'm really her father . then i 'd be ahead , 2 out of 4 . téa : you 're absolutely right . i want to tell dani about this . in fact , i was gon na tell her about it today , but she said she had to be somewhere . todd : oh , right . you could n't stop her . téa : no . i could n't . she said she had an important appointment , and she ran out somewhere . todd : mm - hmm . well , she can weigh in later , but i 'm just curious about you . you with me or not ? téa : did n't mcbain say something about a dna test ? he said he had a sample from you , right ? todd : yes . he did . i 'd like to know how he got it . i never consented to it , but the other day , i found him in my office ransacking my desk . so he must 've stolen it . is that legal ? téa : why would it matter ? if you are who you say you are , then some dna sample mcbain has should n't scare you . [ scene_break ] john : with all due respect , i never understood why you gave manning a free pass . viki : look . i know what you think about todd , and , obviously , it 's completely justified . when i first met him , i disliked him , and then my reservations about him were more than confirmed when he raped marty and tried to implicate my son kevin in the rape . that was unspeakable . and then i found out that he was my brother , and i was horrified , but after a while , i began to see him as a kindred spirit of sorts . john , we are both products , victims of our father , victor lord . you know the stories . you know what he did . the damage that he did to us manifests itself very differently in todd than in me , but we are both very damaged people nonetheless . john : and yet you 're not a sociopath . viki : i know . he 's a rapist . he 's a child . he 's a liar . he 's a monster sometimes . he 's also just a human being , and he is capable of great love and remorse and acts of kindness and courage that are completely unexpected . more than anything , he loves his family . [ scene_break ] starr : first snake . old todd : boa constrictor . starr : name . old todd : barney . starr : barney 's favorite lunch . old todd : mice , preferably white mice . starr : yes or no -- was a tarantula my favorite spider ? old todd : that 's , like , a trick question because technically , a tarantula , while an arachnid , is not actually a spider . do you know why ? starr : do you ? old todd : a spider 's fangs , they move on an axis , but a tarantula 's are fixed . starr : what was my favorite spider ? old todd : black widow because after it mates , it eats the poor sap . starr : my favorite place ? old todd : reptile roundup . starr : favorite mode of transportation . old todd : taxi , especially when you 're grounded . starr : these are all too easy . who is my arch nemesis ? old todd : max holden . starr : what did i do to him ? old todd : piranhas in the bathtub . by the way , really great move . i never got a chance to tell you . starr : there 's no chitchat here , ok ? old todd : ok . starr : we -- what did i buy with the credit card that i stole from max ? old todd : horse poop . starr : asa buchanan and i had a battle . what is it i used as a weapon ? old todd : silly string . how am i doing ? you believe me now ? starr : why should i ? everything i just asked you is right here in this book , and you read it , did n't you ? you cheated . [ scene_break ] tomás : blair , blair , todd is not gon na tell us what happened after i delivered him to baker . blair : why not ? tomás : two reasons -- he lived with it this long already -- blair : or he might not be the same guy . tomás : exactly . blair : well , you know what ? i got to try . if there 's just the slightest chance it 'll bring me closer to knowing who this guy is , then i 'm gon na take it . tomás : that kiss . blair : tomás , i thought we were gon na drop the kiss . tomás : the guy with the scar on his face kissed you . you felt something , even though you have n't admitted it . blair : i told you when i first met you that todd manning was the love of my life , and in that wedding , in that picture , he showered me with gold balloons . it was the happiest day of my life . tomás : dorian said something , that you never loved anyone as much as you loved todd , and that 's the reason you gravitate back to him . blair : well , what about it ? tomás : i want you to know that i hope that i can break that cycle , no matter who that guy is in the jail cell . you think that 's possible ? blair : i ca n't answer that , not until i know the whole story . [ scene_break ] vivian : i examined destiny , and i 've already told her that her pregnancy is progressing normally . shaun : that 's good , right ? her and the baby are healthy ? vivian : very , but this was an unplanned pregnancy -- destiny : no kidding . vivian : and the pregnancy is quite advanced . right now , destiny has a lot of options open to her , and we will go over all of those in detail , but as her doctor and her friend , i just want you all to understand that if destiny makes the decision to terminate , this will have to happen very quickly . shaun : wait . what do you mean , terminate ? dani : shaun , like if she decides to have an abortion . shaun : viv , what are you talking about ? [ scene_break ] john : some of those are very nice sentiments , but you know , in my line of work , you end up finding out that everybody has got an excuse . `` daddy did n't love me , so i became a murderer . `` `` daddy did n't show me any affection , and so i became a pedophile . `` and , yeah , you 're right . when todd 's family is in trouble , he tries like hell to save them , but 9 times out of 10 , he 's the one that put them in danger in the first place . viki : you do n't have to say any more . i mean , i 've said the same stuff to myself . i ca n't tell you how many times i 've said , `` that 's it . i give up . i am through with him , `` and i have never been able to go through with it because , basically , this is a child . he 's a child who was hurt and damaged and fractured , and i guess i will always love him . john : gigi morasco was your friend , was n't she ? viki : yeah . of course she was . john : jack manning is responsible for her death , and todd paid to cover it up . can you just ignore that one ? [ scene_break ] todd : i 'm not afraid of the test . i am who i say i am , and , obviously , the tests are gon na prove it . téa : good . todd : no . not good . john mcbain ransacked my desk and stole a dna sample . that has got to be invasion of privacy or something . téa : i think we got bigger problems than that right now . todd : well , i do n't . i 'm gon na go over there and deal with him , i think . téa : no , no , no , no . you 're not . i 'll go . you two are like oil and water , all right . let me go before you start world war iii . todd : you know , what 's nice is that you 're still my lawyer , even if you 're not sure i 'm your husband . téa : i 'll be back . jack , see you later . jack : dad , do n't worry . the dna test will prove that you 're you because you are . todd : yeah . ok . jack : you know , i do n't remember you with that other face , and i do n't care what you look like now or what you looked like before . you 're still my dad . todd : yeah . jack : yeah . you protected me from going to jail . you 're my father . only my father would do something like that for me , right , dad ? [ scene_break ] viki : no . i ca n't ignore what todd may have done to protect his son , but i ca n't turn my back on him . john : most admirable . i guess i 'll never understand your blind devotion . then again , maybe it 's not important that i do . what do you say we find out the truth ? [ scene_break ] todd : yeah , yeah . that 's right . so i did what i did because you 're my son and i love you and i believe in you , right ? ok . now , do n't forget that . give me a hug . blair : oh , sorry to interrupt a father - son moment . todd : what 's he doing here ? what was that stuff about my not being todd manning ? tomás : we need to talk , todd . todd : no . i 'd rather you just got the hell out of my house . blair : would you just listen , please ? todd : this has nothing to do with you . i do n't want this freeloader in my house anymore , ok ? i 'm gon na give you 5 minutes to get out , or i 'm gon na call the cops and have you arrested for trespassing . [ scene_break ] old todd : can i see the book ? thanks . i 've never seen this book before in my life . that 's the picture you put on a book ? look at that photograph . starr : you cheated . admit it . old todd : i did n't cheat . i did n't . i remember everything because it 's my life . i know it . every moment , every detail . starr : and that 's the problem . after so long , most people would forget a detail here and there , but you memorized todd manning 's life . old todd : i memorized my life because i had to relive it every day . it 's the only way i could keep myself from going crazy . starr : good save . did you prep that one , too ? t.m . : i did n't prep anything . they 're my memories . i had to hold on to something and i chose to hold on to you and jack because you 're the most important thing in my life . starr : do n't . do n't do that . you 're not my father . jack was right . you just ca n't be . old todd : why not ? starr : because my dad loves us . and he loved me , and he might not be perfect , but he would 've never stayed away from me for that long . old todd : i did n't have a choice . i would 've come home if i could 've . starr : i do n't believe you . i do n't . and i do n't know who you are or why you 're doing this , but it is cruel ! old todd : here 's your frog . starr : it 's not mine . it 's hope 's . old todd : who 's hope ? starr : my daughter . old todd : your what ? starr : you -- you do n't know about that ? t.m . : no , i -- not entirely my fault , you know . news travels slowly to remote , top - secret , paramilitary outposts . you have a kid ? you 're a child . you have a -- a daughter ? starr : i got pregnant when i was 16 and it was an accident , obviously . but she is beautiful . she is perfect , and she is the best thing that has ever happened to me . old todd : well , there you have it . i know exactly how you feel . can i -- can i ask you something ? who 's the lowlife who knocked you up ? [ scene_break ] shaun : an abortion ? you would do that ? destiny : maybe . i guess . look , i do n't know . shaun : viv , please . you said there were other options . what are they ? vivian : if destiny decides to carry the baby to term , i would immediately put her on a healthy prenatal regimen . after that , she would have time to consider giving the baby to a family for adoption or raising it herself . destiny : there are n't any other options , like , say , going back in time and getting a do - over ? vivian : i know these are not easy choices . shaun : not easy ? you 're telling my little sister to give up her kid ? vivian : that 's not what i 'm saying . shaun : or to farm it out to someone else ? or to give up her future to change diapers and clean up spit ? yeah . i 'd say that 's not easy . vivian : shaun , i promise you . i would never tell destiny what she should do . all i can do is let her know what her options are . destiny : shaun , do n't blame this on vivian . it 's not her fault . shaun : i know whose fault it is . and if he was n't in rehab over in philadelphia , i would beat his ass . [ scene_break ] old todd : i asked you a question . you answer me , young lady . starr : do n't call me young lady . old todd : who is the lowlife scum that knocked up my daughter ? starr : he is -- he is not a lowlife . old todd : i 'll be the judge of that . starr : no , you wo n't . hope 's father is a good person , a great person , and he was my first love . old todd : was ? where is he now ? starr : that is a long story . old todd : you know what ? i seem to have a lot of time on my hands , so go ahead . why do n't you tell me all about this -- ha ha ! this pillar of society , this great person ? you never heard of a condom ? starr : his name is cole . old todd : cole -- ? starr : thornhart . cole thornhart . old todd : thornhart ? starr : patrick thornhart and marty saybrooke 's son . old todd : i have a granddaughter with marty saybrooke ? starr : no . my father does . you do n't . [ scene_break ] blair : jack , will you excuse us ? i need to talk to todd for just a minute , all right ? jack : i want to stay with dad . todd : that 's ok , jack . hustle up . so what is this -- divide and conquer ? blair : listen , you ca n't kick tomás out . todd : so what would you like me to do -- let people stay in my house who accuse me of being an imposter rent - free ? blair : ok , i know things were confusing last night and -- todd : i have an idea what happened last night . if you recall , tomás gathered as much of my family as he could and he accused me of being an imposter . blair : and he admitted that he might 've been just a little bit hasty when he said that . todd : hasty . blair : he also said that he was sorry . todd : is n't that nice to know ? what do you want from me ? blair : he filled me in on your all 's back history , and i just need to hear from you . what happened in the mausoleum after mitch beat you and left you there ? todd : what do you mean ? blair : how did you get out ? because when i arrived at the crypt , it was empty . todd : what is this guy telling you ? [ scene_break ] viki : so let 's see what it says . john : yeah . viki : i may not like what i hear , but i have to know which one is my brother . cop : [ indistinct ] téa : do n't open that . well i always worry about what 's in the food are those the results of todd 's dna test ? john : yes . yes , they are . téa : and how exactly did you procure todd 's dna ? john : toothbrush from his desk . téa : that sounds like illegal search and seizure to me . john : oh , no . it sounds like probable cause to me . it was police business . téa : really ? and what business was that ? john : investigating the attack on jack manning . téa : that 's a load of crap and you know it . your purloining of todd 's toothbrush had nothing to do with jack 's attack . you had no legal right to do that . john : counselor , before you start popping that little vein in your forehead that 's always so cute , do you want to know who you 're married to or not ? téa : what i want is n't relevant . john : what about what mrs. lord wants ? i think she has a right to know which one of those guys is her brother . what about what jack and starr want ? i think they have the right to know which one of them is their father . viki : téa , please . one of those two men is lying to us . we need to know which one . téa : you 're right . we do need to know , especially todd and the man in that cell . viki : thank you . téa : so -- how do we do this ? john : i have an idea . [ scene_break ] blair : it does n't matter what tomás told me . i want to hear it from you . so how did you get out of the crypt ? how 'd you find your way out ? todd : is this a test ? tomás : yes ! because if you 're really todd manning , you 'll know all the details . todd : i see . so if my story lines up with this guy 's , then i 'm really who i say i am ? [ todd scoffs ] todd : all right . i 'll tell you .

[ shaun exhaling ] destiny : i do n't know what i 'm gon na do . dani : i wish i could tell you . destiny : i wish anyone could . every decision just seems like the wrong one . dani : ok , why do n't we try to talk it out ? maybe we can come up with something . destiny : sure . why not ? dani : all right . let 's start with adoption . destiny : it seems like the right thing to do , and generous . like , you can help someone and know that your baby is going to someone who really wants her , but -- dani : but ? destiny : she 'll end up just like me -- not knowing who her mother is . dani : there are all kinds of adoptions . you know , some people grow up knowing who their birth mothers are . destiny : i know , but is n't that kind of weird ? watching someone else raise your baby knowing it 's yours ? dani : ok , well , we can come back to that one . next option . [ scene_break ] shaun : whew . vivian : i think you might be the biggest baby of all . and i mean big . shaun : i ca n't help it . i 'm crazy about my baby sister . vivian : i know , sweetie . shaun : it just kills me to even think about her getting hurt or throwing away her opportunity to live the life that she deserves . vivian : no one says she has to . shaun : i just want what 's best for her . [ scene_break ] destiny : i think the easiest thing for me to do is to just keep the baby . dani : des , i do n't think `` easy `` is the best word to describe a single teenage mother . destiny : why not ? your sister 's fine . dani : yeah , but she 's also really lucky . and she 's rich , and everybody helps her . i mean , i know that shaun would help you . but you 're not speaking to your parents . destiny : please , dani , please do n't call them that . please . dani : ok . and even with everything starr has , she still has to give up a lot . it 's gon na take her longer to finish college , and she ca n't just go on a road trip or pull an all - nighter at the library like other college kids can do . every decision she makes every day of her life , she has to think of hope . destiny : i think i know what i want to do .

[ scene_break ] téa : oh . i just wish dani would answer her phone . i feel like we should all be together for this . viki : you know , i 'm actually going to wait until i know exactly what 's going on before i tell anyone . téa : that might be a really smart thing to do . we are making the right decision , are n't we , viki ? viki : absolutely . come on . we do n't have a choice . téa : i 'm really terrified right now . viki : that makes two of us . [ scene_break ] todd : not that i owe you or anybody else an explanation , but i guess i could tell you . so what 'd you do about squashing that dna test ? what the hell is she doing here ? téa : uh , she has a right to be here , too . todd : here for what ? jack : dad , there 's a police car out front . what 's going on ? téa : we agreed that this was the best way to do this . blair : what ? what is -- what is this about ? todd : would someone like to tell me what 's going on ? téa : um -- todd : what 's he doing here ? téa : we are now gon na hear the results of the dna test . john : time to find out who the real todd manning is . | everybody is awaiting the answer about who is the real todd manning . starr goes to visit original todd in the jail cell with a list of questions that only her father could answer . he knows all the answers but she suspects that this man `` did his homework `` and that is why he knows things that her real father may not remember from the distant past . viki informs john that the man in question ( original todd ) knows and remembers things about their relationship and history that an imposter could not know or fake . dani accompanies destiny and shaun to the ob - gyn clinic where vivian confirms that destiny is pregnant and explores the options . yet nobody likes to face the fact that she can either abort , give her baby up for adoption or raise a baby as a teenager . and they remark that matthew is not `` there `` for her . | <s>[INST] old todd : hey , shorty , you 're all grown up , huh ? i knew you 'd believe me . starr : ok . so you know my nickname . let 's see what else you know about my family and me . old todd : my family , too . starr : that 's what we 're going to find out . [ scene_break ] dani : destiny is a smart girl . she 'll figure this out . just wish she 'd told me sooner . shaun : i do n't think destiny could admit to herself that she was having a baby -- dani : i think you 're right . shaun : but there 's no denying it now . [ scene_break ] vivian : your pregnancy is normal . destiny : i guess that 's good news ? vivian : yeah , but now you have some tough decisions to make , and you need to make them right away . [ scene_break ] blair : well , you have finally told me the truth about your history with todd , no matter how horrible it is . tomás : you 've always deserved to know . blair : no . what i deserved to know is which of these two men is the father of my children . tomás : once mcbain gets the results of the dna test , you 'll know . blair : oh , tomás , i do n't think you 've noticed this about me , but patience is not one of my many , many virtues . tomás : meaning ? blair : well , the way i see it , we need to figure out what happened to todd from the time you dropped him off to that rogue agent baker till he walked back into town with a new face 8 years ago . tomás : yes . fortunately , the only person that knows exactly what happened to todd is todd . [ scene_break ] jack : you 're my father . i 'm on your side , and i always will be . todd : thanks , jack . i 'm glad you believe i 'm your father . jack : yeah . i do , even if starr does n't . todd : huh ? [ scene_break ] starr : if you are my father , like you say that you are , then you wo n't have any trouble answering a few questions . old todd : is this a test ? [ scene_break ] john : the answers you 're looking for are in this envelope . viki : why ? what is it ? john : it 's the dna test results on your brother and the man we have in our holding cell . this will tell us which one of them is the real todd manning . [ scene_break ] shaun : i ca n't even wrap my head around it . my baby sister is having a baby . dani : i know . it 's just -- shaun : wrong , especially since matthew buchanan is n't here to help out . dani : that 's not his fault . shaun , you know he would be here for destiny if he could . shaun : i know . it 's just that it 's bad enough that destiny has to go through this at all . she should n't have to do it by herself . dani : she 's not by herself . she 's got you and dr. wright , and she has me . i 'm not going anywhere . shaun : i know that . destiny is lucky to have you as a friend . she 's gon na need you . vivian : destiny would like you to come in for a consultation . not you , shaun . she wants dani . [ scene_break ] tomás : did mcbain give you any idea when to expect the results from the dna test ? blair : oh , i do n't know how long i can wait . my family is completely turned upside down . tomás : my family , too . blair : well , then we both have a lot at stake , do n't we ? we both need to know who the real todd is . what we know for sure is that baker ordered you to kill todd 8 years ago . tomás : but then he changed his orders once i found todd nearly beaten to death in that tomb . instead , he told me to bring todd in . blair : and then months later , he shows his face in llanview with a completely different face . tomás : and the only person who knows what happened in between is todd . blair : well , you know what ? we need to talk to todd . i want to hear his side of the story right now . [ scene_break ] john : what do you say we open these together ? viki : do you know , i 'm almost afraid to know the results ? i mean , what if i find out that the man that i 've been loyal to and been forgiving and defending all these years is n't my brother at all ? he 's an imposter . john : sounds like the guy downstairs made quite an impression on you . viki : john , that man not only has todd 's face . he has his memories , all of them . he knows things about our history that no one else could know . he knows details of private conversations between us . john : he does ? viki : yes , he does . he reminded me of a time that i came upon him in the cemetery . this was 18 years ago . starr was a baby . he had been gone for a long time . we all thought he was dead . john : lightning strikes twice . viki : he told me that i was the one person above all else and anyone else that he could trust . it 's like he 'd stabbed me in the heart because if he 's todd , and he seems to be , that means that i have been betraying my brother for years . i 've been loving and loyal to an imposter . how could i have done that ? john : you ca n't beat yourself up about that . viki : ca n't i ? john : no . no . you ca n't . you know , the more interesting question for me is , how can someone like you go to bat for someone like him for all these years , no matter who he is ? [ scene_break ] starr : you are damn right this is a test . old todd : oh , my god . starr : i was in shock . old todd : well , probably , but i could see in your eyes that you know who i am . starr : maybe you got me when you called me shorty , but that is not enough to convince me . if you are and want to prove that you are who you say you are , then you are gon na have to come up with the goods . old todd : ok . fine . go ahead . starr : ok . old todd : fire away . starr : first question -- when i was a little girl , how did we communicate when you were away ? old todd : through a stuffed frog . starr : name . old todd : fred . starr : that 's not enough . full name . old todd : fred the magic frog . next ? [ scene_break ] téa : jack , did starr actually say that she does n't believe that todd is really her father ? todd : of course she did n't , did she ? what did she tell you ? jack : i do n't know . she was saying all kinds of crazy stuff . todd : yeah ? like what ? jack : like about , you know , how you were with your old face , how you acted different then . todd : and where is she now ? jack : i do n't know , but do n't listen to her , dad . she 's wrong . todd : all right . thanks , buddy . really means a lot that someone i know believes in me . so jack is on my side . apparently , the jury is still out on starr . where do you stand ? [ scene_break ] shaun : so that 's how it 's gon na be ? my little sister thinks i 'm gon na sit out here in the waiting room while she goes through the toughest time in her life ? vivian : she asked for dani . i 'm sure she 'll tell you all about it later . shaun : i 'm the one taking care of her now . i have the right to be in there . vivian : i know , but she 's my patient , and it 's my job to make sure that she 's comfortable and to protect her privacy . shaun : and i 'm not going to make her uncomfortable , and i 'm not gon na sit out here and be quiet . destiny : shaun , i just want dani in here , ok ? shaun : i get that . i 'm glad that she 's here for you , but i love you , little d . destiny : i know . it 's just -- shaun : you think i 'm gon na embarrass you ? destiny : i do n't know . shaun : i can keep it in check . little d. this family has had too many secrets , and it has torn us apart . so from now on , we should n't hide anything . so i 'm asking you , please , let me come in and be a part of this . destiny : ok . [ scene_break ] todd : what 's the matter ? cat got your tongue ? you know what we should do is get dani down here . we can take a vote , and maybe i can convince her that i 'm really her father . then i 'd be ahead , 2 out of 4 . téa : you 're absolutely right . i want to tell dani about this . in fact , i was gon na tell her about it today , but she said she had to be somewhere . todd : oh , right . you could n't stop her . téa : no . i could n't . she said she had an important appointment , and she ran out somewhere . todd : mm - hmm . well , she can weigh in later , but i 'm just curious about you . you with me or not ? téa : did n't mcbain say something about a dna test ? he said he had a sample from you , right ? todd : yes . he did . i 'd like to know how he got it . i never consented to it , but the other day , i found him in my office ransacking my desk . so he must 've stolen it . is that legal ? téa : why would it matter ? if you are who you say you are , then some dna sample mcbain has should n't scare you . [ scene_break ] john : with all due respect , i never understood why you gave manning a free pass . viki : look . i know what you think about todd , and , obviously , it 's completely justified . when i first met him , i disliked him , and then my reservations about him were more than confirmed when he raped marty and tried to implicate my son kevin in the rape . that was unspeakable . and then i found out that he was my brother , and i was horrified , but after a while , i began to see him as a kindred spirit of sorts . john , we are both products , victims of our father , victor lord . you know the stories . you know what he did . the damage that he did to us manifests itself very differently in todd than in me , but we are both very damaged people nonetheless . john : and yet you 're not a sociopath . viki : i know . he 's a rapist . he 's a child . he 's a liar . he 's a monster sometimes . he 's also just a human being , and he is capable of great love and remorse and acts of kindness and courage that are completely unexpected . more than anything , he loves his family . [ scene_break ] starr : first snake . old todd : boa constrictor . starr : name . old todd : barney . starr : barney 's favorite lunch . old todd : mice , preferably white mice . starr : yes or no -- was a tarantula my favorite spider ? old todd : that 's , like , a trick question because technically , a tarantula , while an arachnid , is not actually a spider . do you know why ? starr : do you ? old todd : a spider 's fangs , they move on an axis , but a tarantula 's are fixed . starr : what was my favorite spider ? old todd : black widow because after it mates , it eats the poor sap . starr : my favorite place ? old todd : reptile roundup . starr : favorite mode of transportation . old todd : taxi , especially when you 're grounded . starr : these are all too easy . who is my arch nemesis ? old todd : max holden . starr : what did i do to him ? old todd : piranhas in the bathtub . by the way , really great move . i never got a chance to tell you . starr : there 's no chitchat here , ok ? old todd : ok . starr : we -- what did i buy with the credit card that i stole from max ? old todd : horse poop . starr : asa buchanan and i had a battle . what is it i used as a weapon ? old todd : silly string . how am i doing ? you believe me now ? starr : why should i ? everything i just asked you is right here in this book , and you read it , did n't you ? you cheated . [ scene_break ] tomás : blair , blair , todd is not gon na tell us what happened after i delivered him to baker . blair : why not ? tomás : two reasons -- he lived with it this long already -- blair : or he might not be the same guy . tomás : exactly . blair : well , you know what ? i got to try . if there 's just the slightest chance it 'll bring me closer to knowing who this guy is , then i 'm gon na take it . tomás : that kiss . blair : tomás , i thought we were gon na drop the kiss . tomás : the guy with the scar on his face kissed you . you felt something , even though you have n't admitted it . blair : i told you when i first met you that todd manning was the love of my life , and in that wedding , in that picture , he showered me with gold balloons . it was the happiest day of my life . tomás : dorian said something , that you never loved anyone as much as you loved todd , and that 's the reason you gravitate back to him . blair : well , what about it ? tomás : i want you to know that i hope that i can break that cycle , no matter who that guy is in the jail cell . you think that 's possible ? blair : i ca n't answer that , not until i know the whole story . [ scene_break ] vivian : i examined destiny , and i 've already told her that her pregnancy is progressing normally . shaun : that 's good , right ? her and the baby are healthy ? vivian : very , but this was an unplanned pregnancy -- destiny : no kidding . vivian : and the pregnancy is quite advanced . right now , destiny has a lot of options open to her , and we will go over all of those in detail , but as her doctor and her friend , i just want you all to understand that if destiny makes the decision to terminate , this will have to happen very quickly . shaun : wait . what do you mean , terminate ? dani : shaun , like if she decides to have an abortion . shaun : viv , what are you talking about ? [ scene_break ] john : some of those are very nice sentiments , but you know , in my line of work , you end up finding out that everybody has got an excuse . `` daddy did n't love me , so i became a murderer . `` `` daddy did n't show me any affection , and so i became a pedophile . `` and , yeah , you 're right . when todd 's family is in trouble , he tries like hell to save them , but 9 times out of 10 , he 's the one that put them in danger in the first place . viki : you do n't have to say any more . i mean , i 've said the same stuff to myself . i ca n't tell you how many times i 've said , `` that 's it . i give up . i am through with him , `` and i have never been able to go through with it because , basically , this is a child . he 's a child who was hurt and damaged and fractured , and i guess i will always love him . john : gigi morasco was your friend , was n't she ? viki : yeah . of course she was . john : jack manning is responsible for her death , and todd paid to cover it up . can you just ignore that one ? [ scene_break ] todd : i 'm not afraid of the test . i am who i say i am , and , obviously , the tests are gon na prove it . téa : good . todd : no . not good . john mcbain ransacked my desk and stole a dna sample . that has got to be invasion of privacy or something . téa : i think we got bigger problems than that right now . todd : well , i do n't . i 'm gon na go over there and deal with him , i think . téa : no , no , no , no . you 're not . i 'll go . you two are like oil and water , all right . let me go before you start world war iii . todd : you know , what 's nice is that you 're still my lawyer , even if you 're not sure i 'm your husband . téa : i 'll be back . jack , see you later . jack : dad , do n't worry . the dna test will prove that you 're you because you are . todd : yeah . ok . jack : you know , i do n't remember you with that other face , and i do n't care what you look like now or what you looked like before . you 're still my dad . todd : yeah . jack : yeah . you protected me from going to jail . you 're my father . only my father would do something like that for me , right , dad ? [ scene_break ] viki : no . i ca n't ignore what todd may have done to protect his son , but i ca n't turn my back on him . john : most admirable . i guess i 'll never understand your blind devotion . then again , maybe it 's not important that i do . what do you say we find out the truth ? [ scene_break ] todd : yeah , yeah . that 's right . so i did what i did because you 're my son and i love you and i believe in you , right ? ok . now , do n't forget that . give me a hug . blair : oh , sorry to interrupt a father - son moment . todd : what 's he doing here ? what was that stuff about my not being todd manning ? tomás : we need to talk , todd . todd : no . i 'd rather you just got the hell out of my house . blair : would you just listen , please ? todd : this has nothing to do with you . i do n't want this freeloader in my house anymore , ok ? i 'm gon na give you 5 minutes to get out , or i 'm gon na call the cops and have you arrested for trespassing . [ scene_break ] old todd : can i see the book ? thanks . i 've never seen this book before in my life . that 's the picture you put on a book ? look at that photograph . starr : you cheated . admit it . old todd : i did n't cheat . i did n't . i remember everything because it 's my life . i know it . every moment , every detail . starr : and that 's the problem . after so long , most people would forget a detail here and there , but you memorized todd manning 's life . old todd : i memorized my life because i had to relive it every day . it 's the only way i could keep myself from going crazy . starr : good save . did you prep that one , too ? t.m . : i did n't prep anything . they 're my memories . i had to hold on to something and i chose to hold on to you and jack because you 're the most important thing in my life . starr : do n't . do n't do that . you 're not my father . jack was right . you just ca n't be . old todd : why not ? starr : because my dad loves us . and he loved me , and he might not be perfect , but he would 've never stayed away from me for that long . old todd : i did n't have a choice . i would 've come home if i could 've . starr : i do n't believe you . i do n't . and i do n't know who you are or why you 're doing this , but it is cruel ! old todd : here 's your frog . starr : it 's not mine . it 's hope 's . old todd : who 's hope ? starr : my daughter . old todd : your what ? starr : you -- you do n't know about that ? t.m . : no , i -- not entirely my fault , you know . news travels slowly to remote , top - secret , paramilitary outposts . you have a kid ? you 're a child . you have a -- a daughter ? starr : i got pregnant when i was 16 and it was an accident , obviously . but she is beautiful . she is perfect , and she is the best thing that has ever happened to me . old todd : well , there you have it . i know exactly how you feel . can i -- can i ask you something ? who 's the lowlife who knocked you up ? [ scene_break ] shaun : an abortion ? you would do that ? destiny : maybe . i guess . look , i do n't know . shaun : viv , please . you said there were other options . what are they ? vivian : if destiny decides to carry the baby to term , i would immediately put her on a healthy prenatal regimen . after that , she would have time to consider giving the baby to a family for adoption or raising it herself . destiny : there are n't any other options , like , say , going back in time and getting a do - over ? vivian : i know these are not easy choices . shaun : not easy ? you 're telling my little sister to give up her kid ? vivian : that 's not what i 'm saying . shaun : or to farm it out to someone else ? or to give up her future to change diapers and clean up spit ? yeah . i 'd say that 's not easy . vivian : shaun , i promise you . i would never tell destiny what she should do . all i can do is let her know what her options are . destiny : shaun , do n't blame this on vivian . it 's not her fault . shaun : i know whose fault it is . and if he was n't in rehab over in philadelphia , i would beat his ass . [ scene_break ] old todd : i asked you a question . you answer me , young lady . starr : do n't call me young lady . old todd : who is the lowlife scum that knocked up my daughter ? starr : he is -- he is not a lowlife . old todd : i 'll be the judge of that . starr : no , you wo n't . hope 's father is a good person , a great person , and he was my first love . old todd : was ? where is he now ? starr : that is a long story . old todd : you know what ? i seem to have a lot of time on my hands , so go ahead . why do n't you tell me all about this -- ha ha ! this pillar of society , this great person ? you never heard of a condom ? starr : his name is cole . old todd : cole -- ? starr : thornhart . cole thornhart . old todd : thornhart ? starr : patrick thornhart and marty saybrooke 's son . old todd : i have a granddaughter with marty saybrooke ? starr : no . my father does . you do n't . [ scene_break ] blair : jack , will you excuse us ? i need to talk to todd for just a minute , all right ? jack : i want to stay with dad . todd : that 's ok , jack . hustle up . so what is this -- divide and conquer ? blair : listen , you ca n't kick tomás out . todd : so what would you like me to do -- let people stay in my house who accuse me of being an imposter rent - free ? blair : ok , i know things were confusing last night and -- todd : i have an idea what happened last night . if you recall , tomás gathered as much of my family as he could and he accused me of being an imposter . blair : and he admitted that he might 've been just a little bit hasty when he said that . todd : hasty . blair : he also said that he was sorry . todd : is n't that nice to know ? what do you want from me ? blair : he filled me in on your all 's back history , and i just need to hear from you . what happened in the mausoleum after mitch beat you and left you there ? todd : what do you mean ? blair : how did you get out ? because when i arrived at the crypt , it was empty . todd : what is this guy telling you ? [ scene_break ] viki : so let 's see what it says . john : yeah . viki : i may not like what i hear , but i have to know which one is my brother . cop : [ indistinct ] téa : do n't open that . well i always worry about what 's in the food are those the results of todd 's dna test ? john : yes . yes , they are . téa : and how exactly did you procure todd 's dna ? john : toothbrush from his desk . téa : that sounds like illegal search and seizure to me . john : oh , no . it sounds like probable cause to me . it was police business . téa : really ? and what business was that ? john : investigating the attack on jack manning . téa : that 's a load of crap and you know it . your purloining of todd 's toothbrush had nothing to do with jack 's attack . you had no legal right to do that . john : counselor , before you start popping that little vein in your forehead that 's always so cute , do you want to know who you 're married to or not ? téa : what i want is n't relevant . john : what about what mrs. lord wants ? i think she has a right to know which one of those guys is her brother . what about what jack and starr want ? i think they have the right to know which one of them is their father . viki : téa , please . one of those two men is lying to us . we need to know which one . téa : you 're right . we do need to know , especially todd and the man in that cell . viki : thank you . téa : so -- how do we do this ? john : i have an idea . [ scene_break ] blair : it does n't matter what tomás told me . i want to hear it from you . so how did you get out of the crypt ? how 'd you find your way out ? todd : is this a test ? tomás : yes ! because if you 're really todd manning , you 'll know all the details . todd : i see . so if my story lines up with this guy 's , then i 'm really who i say i am ?

[ door opens ] jack : and by that , i mean quit , just to be clear . victor : you know that ashley is the best in the business . you do n't want to lose her any more than i do . chelsea : well ? billy : well , it 's still there . jack made a deal with victor on purpose . here they are smiling , shaking hands . you know , there 's got to be only one explanation for this . pod people . alien impostors have come down to take over the world . chelsea : or this is jack 's choice and we have to deal with it . billy : or someone needs to smack the hell out of him and make him see sense . chelsea : let me guess . you are that guy . billy : in fact , i am . chelsea : [ chuckles ] billy : but you know what , chelsea ? it 's ... it 's not about the abbotts losing jabot . it 's about my brother losing his soul . kyle : weird , right ? phyllis : i ca n't look away . it 's mesmerizing . it 's like looking at bigfoot or the loch ness monster . kyle : do you think aunt ashley and uncle billy were right ? dad 's gone over the edge ? phyllis : i ca n't decide . maybe i set this all into motion . `` jack , be grateful that victor brought me out of a coma . jack , i need you and victor to help me expose kelly , `` and we just became this bizarre , little team that made absolutely no sense , but ... now victor is not trying to steal jabot , and jack is not trying to steal newman . and ... well , i do n't know . maybe this is how all wars should end -- with a handshake and a smile . kyle : you do n't sound completely convinced there . phyllis : smelling booze on your father 's breath really did n't make me feel warm and fuzzy about everything . kyle : are you sure that it was n't spilled on him or something ? phyllis : he admitted to taking a drink . and then he calmly played it off . kyle : he would never do that , all right ? that 's not dad . chelsea : okay , give me that . i am cutting you off . billy : all right . but it does n't change anything , though . my entire life , it 's been drilled into my head . you know , `` you protect the family name , you protect jabot at all costs . `` you know , and half the time , i sucked at it -- hell , three - quarters . but i ca n't turn my back on it now . chelsea : maybe you should trust ashley to protect jabot from the inside . billy : against victor ? she ca n't do that by herself . we need a team . we need allies . what the hell happened to your superfan , gabriel , huh ? i mean , he was always fired up to be by jack 's side , and he loved playing hero in front of you . so this is his shot . where is he ? i mean , he claims he hates victor , but he 's awol . nowhere to be found . so what the hell 's up with that ? i mean , what ? did you reject him one too many times ? kyle : if dad 's acting like a drink is no big deal , then he 's not in a good place . phyllis : look , i was there when jack detoxed . i reminded him of that . i pointed out that booze can be a gateway to pills . kyle : oh , and he what ? had another shot ? phyllis : no . it was n't like that . it was n't an addict rationalizing away a slip . he was jack . my husband . your father . explaining that it was a one - time thing in honor of the merger . kyle : the merge . great . that 's two things that make absolutely no sense at all . phyllis : i 'm not gon na argue with you on that . kyle : i do n't know . well , what is dad going after with this merger , then ? like , does he have an endgame in mind ? phyllis : it 's a possibility . kyle : you asked him . phyllis : he implied it . he asked me to trust him , so i am . now it 's your turn . can you trust your father for his sake ? jack : no one knows any better than i do my sister 's value to this company , but i have more than one priority . helping a smooth transition is one . keeping my sister happy is another . and i do n't want her to be miserable working with us . ashley : i 'm so happy right now , jack . i 'm incredibly happy . victor : ashley , you 're oozing sarcasm , but i truly hope that you come to believe that , you know ? meanwhile , jack , you and i shall do everything in our power to make ashley feel very comfortable . jack : of course . victor : all right . shall we adjourn ? victoria , my darling , let me see that logo . victoria : okay . victor : show it to ashley . let 's see what you think of the new logo . ashley : that was fast , was n't it ? boom , boom , boom . newman - abbott ? victor : well , you did n't expect that to be abbott - newman , now , did you ? ashley : actually , i did n't expect to see abbott at all . victoria : well , it carries weight in the business community . ashley : does it really , victoria ? thank you so much for sharing that information . i thought maybe it would be jabot , that 's all . or were you thinking if that was the case , that if our father was here to see it , he would be horrified ? jack : i 'm sorry ? oh , i had a text . victor : anyway , there 's a lot of history and baggage between our families . i thought that we could move beyond that . ashley : if you ' referring to the history that victoria and i share , both distant and more recent , i assure you that i can put it aside because that 's what adults do when they have to work together . victor : well , i 'm very happy to hear that , ashley . but let me just correct your assumption . it is t that you will be working with victoria . you 'll be working for victoria . kyle : dad would never let victor swallow jabot whole . no matter what he aged to , he would never willingly let it go . now , if he 's self - medicating because he 's stressed or -- phyllis : he swore that drink was a one - time thing . he 's in a good place . trust him . and me , okay ? kyle : okay . i 'm with you and dad . no matter how uncomfortable this whole thing makes me . phyllis : you know what ? that 's what faith is about -- trusting your gut . i just wish the rest of the family would get onboard . because no matter how centered jack is right now , he will be so pissed off if the rest of the family can not trust his vision . chelsea : i have no idea why gabe took off . um , maybe -- maybe it was getting the divorce papers from sage . billy : yeah , that 's it , because she was his priority . chelsea : jack going rogue -- i mean , why -- why are you making this about gabriel ? billy : you 're right . it 's not about him . with any luck , he 's gone for good and we 'll have new neighbors by next week . in the meantime , i got to figure out how to keep the abbott family from being completely waylaid by snidely . time to circle the wagons . chelsea : i did n't know you had a wagon . billy : oh , we have wagons . a whole fleet of them . i 'll keep you posted . chelsea : okay . love you . billy : love you . chelsea : [ sighs ] you 're still not answering . gabe , it 's me again . um ... i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i know you were expecting more after we ... but i -- it 's my fault , and i 'm sorry , and i 'm with billy now . [ door opens ] chelsea : but if you care at all about the company , if you care about your friendship with jack , you will come home . we need you . professionally -- professionally speaking . jabot -- jabot needs you . so ... just , uh ... just come home . gloria : who was that ? abby : do n't you feel bad now ? stitch : i do n't know . bad is not what i 'm feeling right now . [ chuckles ] abby : that you hated me at first . stitch : hated you ? i hated you ? me ? abby : yes . yes , it was obvious . stitch : okay , i think you 're projecting , because you were a total brat to me nonstop , first about the billy and victoria thing and then lying about my past . abby : okay , i can admit it . i was . but you can admit that you hated me . stitch : you were annoying but kind of appealing . abby : appealing ? stitch : yeah . it 's a polite way of saying sexy . abby : you did not think i was sexy back then . stitch : i did . i mean , i definitely do now . sweet and sexy and sweet . abby : wait , wait . um ... are we just gon na ignore the mention of billy and victoria ? i mean , mainly victoria and . ? we have n't really had a chance to talk about you two . stitch : there is n't much to say . you know , we parted ways . it -- it was mutual . it took us awhile to figure out , but , you know , we saw it coming . it took us a little while to figure things out , so ... abby : and now you have ? stitch : now we have . abby : hmm . wait . h - mnh . no , no , no , no , no . stitch : no , no , no , no , no ? abby : no . no , no . we have jobs that we have to get to , at least for right now . and we have to see what fresh hell awaits us at work . stitch : yeah , we do . abby : yeah . mm - hmm . we do . stitch : [ sighs ] abby : oh , gosh . mom is freaking out , and uncle jack wants us there . stitch : yeah , we 're late . okay . victor : this merger obviously calls for restructuring , so from now on , victoria will be chief operating officer . ashley : congratulations . i assume i 'll still be reporting to you ? victoria : actually , you 'll be reporting to me , given my experience in cosmetics . ashley : [ laughs ] like we do n't have any experience ? jack does n't have decades of experience in cosmetics ? victoria : granted , but i do have a personal investment in all of the brands . ashley : did y hear what she said ? she has a personal investment . not that any abbott would . please tell me you did n't agree to this . tell me . jack : jabot is now part of a larger newman - abbott enterprises . your answering to the chief operating officer simply means this is a lateral move . ashley : answering to a newman about anything to do with jabot is not a lateral move , jack , and you know it . you told me you were gon na make me co - ceo before you went to get married . jack : the merger was n't an issue at that time . ashley : so hex is a huge success and i 'm still not co - ceo and now this ? you know , this kind of reminds me of when adam 's office was moved to the men 's room 'cause you were trying to show him who 's boss . victor : it 's not quite like that . this move is an attempt to create a framework so that we can make the most efficient version of our company . victoria : a version that will provide hex and you a much larger platform than what you had before . but if you do n't see the benefits of us working together , then maybe it makes sense at you stay in the lab . your skills as a chemist are excellent , and if you 're gon na let your emotion cloud your judgment , then clearly you a not the leadership that this company is calling for . ashley : so , this is how you keep me happy , huh ? jack : welcome to our brave , new world . chelsea : i was leaving a message for billy . and you could have knocked and not eavesdropped . gloria : was n't locked . you know me . ca n't resist the opportunity to listen in . tidbits come in handy sometimes . chelsea : you are starting to sound as shifty as my father . gloria : i do n't know about that . jeffrey 's spending all of his time at the yacht club since we got back to town . decided to take up racing . wants to race in the america 's cu between you and me , the only cup he 's interested in is a double - d . chelsea : i 'm sorry that we have to do it here today . connor 's nanny quit . she got into medical school . gloria : the nerve of some people ! chelsea : [ chuckles ] actually , it 's better . i do n't really love the idea of being at the office these days . too many people jockeying for position . gloria : no , no , no , no , no . that 's where you should be -- jockeying yourself . chelsea : oh , no , that -- my -- my job is safe . gloria : really ? and my dear john thought his family company would last for generations . god rest his soul , but he must be rolling in his grave . chelsea : oh , yeah . i forget you two were married . gloria : not a day goes by i do n't think about that wonderful man . unfortunately , jackie boy did n't inherit his father 's qualities . selling out to that devil ? chelsea : it was a merger , not a sale . gloria : oh , come on , chelsea . i was n't born yesterday , and neither were you . jabot is as good as kaput . and you will be , too , if you 're not careful . and where does that leave me ? chelsea : you ? gloria : yes , me . oh , come on . my god - given talent wasted . i have ideas that will put your line in the stratosphere . chelsea : oh , my line 's already huge . gloria : really ? not by victor newman 's standards . or his daughter 's , for that matter . and if memory serves , you and victoria have a little bit of a history and not all of it good . and then there 's that little matter of you sleeping with her ex -- again . come on . you do n't think she 's going to prove who 's calling the shots ? you be careful , chelsea , or you 're gon na be on the street . ashley : just to be clear , i 'm not going to quit this job , no matter how insulting it is . i 'm gon na fight for my father 's legacy because somebody has to . victor : i 'm so glad to hear that , ashley . we think very highly of you . we need you to succeed . and , uh , we 'll give you all the assistance you need . jack : wonderful ! so , shall we continue the tour ? i have some other things i 'd like to show you . victor : you lead the way . leave you two alone . jack : really ? you could n't just let her quit ? that woman is hot , but she is a pain in my ass . victor : you listen to me . she is your sister . we need her to succeed . jack : she does n't like me . victor : she does n't think that you are quite right in the head . you 're a little cuckoo , do you understand ? jack : people change . victor : they do n't change that much . you do not make her question your behavior again . is that clear ? jack : i do n't think she thinks anything but who i am . same thing with my wife . incidentally , phyllis is a tiger ! victor : will you start acting like an adult ? victoria : ashley , i actually think i 'm gon na need a home base here in the lab . this office seems to be the most logical solution . ashley : my office ? victoria : it would be great if you could clear away some of these things as soon as possible . oh , and you know what ? you can base your office right out there in the lab . be perfect . you know , just clear away some of your things and then you can be there right on top of everything . is that a problem ? ashley : oh , no . i think i can make that work . victoria : great . i hope that all of the other employees are as resourceful as you are . victor : do n't you get cocky . you have a face like jack abbott . that 's why they think you are jack abbott . but your behavior is becoming a little cuckoo . do you understand ? that tie , for example . jack : a little color in the old guy 's life . victor : that is not what he would wear . i 'm telling you . jack : he would n't merge his company with yours , either . come on . i 'm having lunch with the missus . victor : you are doing no such thing . you 're not going to have lunch with her by yourself . jack : no , i can handle phyllis . victor : there is too much at stake . you will not have lunch with her by yourself . you got it ? i call the shots here . abby : hi ! hi , got your messages . lots of them . [ laughs ] victor : hi , sweetheart . abby : hi . victor : you 've heard of the wonderful merger ? abby : yes , yes . and the company is just like me -- a newman - abbott production . wow . [ laughs ] and -- and you 're okay with this ? jack : could n't be better . now , if you 'll excuse us , we have some place we have to be . victor : we 'll be right back . abby : okay . victor : yep . abby : `` we . `` he just said `` we , `` talking about him and my dad , and it was n't about killing each other . stitch : what can i say ? lot of things changed yesterday . ashley : oh , yeah . look who 's here . finally . abby : i 'm sorry . ashley : do n't tell it to me . tell it to the boss . billy : so , did you see it ? titans of industry smiling , shaking hands for the camera in our lab ? phyllis : you mean this wonderful moment of glory ? billy : yeah , that would be it . so , how does this not have you climbing the walls ? kyle : well , phyllis and i have been talking about it . dad must have a plan . billy : right , right . and if he does n't ? phyllis : can you support your brother maybe ? billy : i will do my brotherly duty by making sure that jack sees partnering with victor is a colossal mistake . and you are gon na help me . victoria : good morning . it 's good to see you both . finally . abby : you , too ? wow . [ chuckles ] this is so cool . all of us working at the same place together . [ chuckles ] ashley : are you okay , ben ? you look a little peaked . stitch : oh . [ scoffs ] i 'm fine . just , uh , just a little overwhelmed at the thought of us all , uh , working together . you know , uh ... so , where should we start today ? ashley : well , victoria 's the new coo . yeah , so i 'll be reporting to her . everything to do with hex and everything else in this department . stitch : congratulations on the title . this is a -- you know , we have a great department here . incredible , actual . victoria : i 'm a big fan of jabot . so , today i will just be meeting with you individually , you know , for status reports , where things are at . abby : of course . yeah , yeah . that -- that makes sense . victoria : great . so , i 'm going to go into my office a do some catch - up , and i 'll call you in . abby : her office ? this is n't happening . stitch : victor did this ? ashley : yeah , with jack 's express agreement . abby : okay , i work for victoria ? you work for victoria ? we -- we all work -- ashley : yes , we have to stick together . although , actually , that should n't be much of a problem for the two of you , right ? stitch : [ sighs ] abby : mom -- ashley : i think what we need to do is just assume that big brother is watching everything and victor knows everything , okay ? abby : you mean big sister . literally . how -- how can you be so calm ? ashley : because if i 'm not calm , i 'm gon na break all the glass in this room ! stitch : yeah , that 'd be messy . ashley : this whole thing is messy . and it 's gon na get a lot worse . victoria : ben , can i see you in here ? stitch : of course . abby : oh , my god . she 's gon na devour all of us . like jaws . some people let power go to their head . she lets it go to her teeth . ashley : would you please just stop talking ? stop chomping . stitch : victoria ... victoria : i ca n't tell you how much do n't want to hear it at all . this is your job . this is where you work . [ sighs ] but that does n't mean that you can show up here all moon - eyed whenever it suits you . stitch : oh , okay . this is all business ? nothing personal ? which is why you 're speaking to me like a little kid who just got sent to detention ? i am sorry . no one wanted to hurt you . victoria : it has n't even been one day since we broke up . not one day . stitch : i know . and if i had known you were gon na be in the lab ... victoria : you would have asked abby to follow you in here10 minutes later ? that would n't change the way that you 're looking at her , and that would not change the way that she 's looking at you . so now we focus on business . that 's all that 's left . abby : as in you share an office with ... ashley : your sister . abby : [ sighs ] ashley : yeah , so why do n't you tell me , what do you share with your sister ? what the hell were you thinking waltzing in here like that with him ? abby : okay , before you freak out -- ashley : oh , it 's too late for that . abby : victoria and stitch broke up last night . ashley : was that before or after she found out about the two of you ? abby : there was nothing to find out . their breakup was very painful , but they knew it had to happen . and i never expected her to plant herself here in the lab . ashley : you know , honestly , i do n't think her location is really the problem here . i 'm trying to keep our family and our family 's business from falling apart . abby : and ben and i are here to support you . i swear . ashley : i am so terrified . i am just so incredibly furious . abby : mom , i am here . i am loyal to you d jabot no matter who else is or is n't . phyllis : if you have some big plans to undermine your brother , then you are on your own . my husband has asked me to trust him , so here i am trusting him . billy : okay . all right . what about you ? you 're not a newlywed who 's drunk on love . please tell me that you know better . kyle : so now you 're being nice to me ? yesterday you called me an idiot . billy : heat of the moment , kyle . kyle : look , dad does things his own way . always has . this is no different . billy : you guys are both kidding me . phyllis : shame . billy : but you and me , we 've tussled once before . phyllis : more than once , and it was more than a tussle . billy : but we both love jack . phyllis : very much . billy : jack has always had his priorities clear . okay , his family , his business , and you . and he has just handed one of the things over to victor newman . phyllis : and he very might well have a plan to topple victor . billy : oh , that 's fantastic ! really ? i would love to hear about that . maybe he could fill us in , because this is legal , phyllis ! it 's binding ! he ca n't just turn around one day and say , `` psych ! just kidding ! `` phyllis : i do n't know . maybe he meant it when he said he just want peace for once in his life . billy : peace will come from crushing victor , not bowing to him . kyle : hey , my dad is not bowing to victor . he 's his own man , and he makes his own decisions . billy : correct . he was his own man . he used to make his own decisions . guys , something is going on here . kyle : you know , you do n't know what you 're talking about , billy . billy : okay , all that stuff that i said about heat of the moment , i take that back you are an idiot . look , we have got to figure this out . if victor is blackmailing jack for the whole computer - hacking thing -- phyllis : billy , what do you want me to say ? that all of this is true ? maybe it is . but this is what jack wants . billy : then it 's a huge mistake ! okay , look , just say that i 'm right , okay , and that jack has , for whatever reason , lowered his guard . if victor has a plan to pummel jack -- and come on , victor always has a plan to pummel jack -- then we have got to let him know . this is way too big a risk . [ scene_break ] jack : sorry we 're late . did you miss me ? phyllis : yes . victor : our meeting ran a little long . billy : this is adorable . did -- did the two of you walk in here together , side by side ? jack : you could always leave , billy . this is a private lunch . kyle : dad , really ? victor : no , billy , you 're more than welcome to stay . i want you to hear and witness how smoothly the transition is running . billy : no , no , `` thrilled . `` `` thrilled `` would be the word . victor : i 'm so happy that you 're thrilled . it 's thrilling , indeed , you know . victoria and ashley are working towards the same goal . so are jack and i . too bad you are n't mature enough to understand that change is inevitable . [ cell phone rings ] victor : excuse me . i need to take this . sorry . billy : yeah , this is all good . obviously . kyle : yeah , i 've got to head off . dad , um , could i talk to you for a second ? jack : uh , sure . yeah . you okay , son ? kyle : i am . are you ? jack : never better . like a new man . kyle : great . and this merger -- i do n't need details , but is this to keep the peace or do you have some plan to take down victor when all is said and done ? jack : you know your old man better than that . there 's more to this merger than even victor knows . [ scene_break ] chelsea : victoria is dealing with a major merger . i 'm not even on her radar right now . besides , she has stitch . she 's not gon na punish me for being with billy . gloria : she 's a newman . she will multi - task . and then there 's victor , who 's always had it in for billy . and then there 's jack who fired his own brother , billy . and then there 's that thing called guilt by association . chelsea , you 're my family . i 'm telling you this for your own good . chelsea : and yours , apparently . gloria : damn right . listen , sweetie . you 're a woman after my own heart . like me , no one ever handed you anything . you 've had to scratch and claw to make something of yourself . and look what you 've done . but if i 've learned anything in this life , it 's you do n't let your guard down . you can never rest . because when you do , somebody will be there to swoop in and take it all away from you . believe me . i know . so go . go on . i 'll stay with connor . you get back in that ring and you fight for everything that 's yours . [ knock on door ] victoria : yes ? abby : hi . is this a bad time ? victoria : do you mean this minute or the last 24 hours ? abby : oh . [ chuckles ] i love you . and you have been my best friend for ages now , and now we work together , and some other things have changed . victoria : if you mean you and ben coming in here together , sharing an ecstatic glow . is that what you mean by changes ? abby : i know it 's awkward . victoria : yeah , you think so ? abby : but i love you . victoria : oh , you said that . abby : because i really mean it , and i would never want to do anything to hurt you . victoria : we 're adults . we make decisions . and you 're my sister , and nothing 's ever gon na change that . not my job title , not your romantic life . abby : really ? 'cause i was so scared that you were -- victoria : but i need you to do something for me , please . abby : yes . anything . victoria : be on time . it sets a good example for the other employees . be present . be invested . be your best . and that means focusing on the work , not your personal life . abby : right . of course . victoria : good . you and i are gon na have such a good time working together . abby : [ chuckles ] yeah , yeah , totally . stitch : this seems off . i - i do n't know what 's going on . ashley : well , you ran the test . maybe you 're off . i mean , your game . probably have a lot on your mind , right ? stitch : [ scoffs ] ash , come on . ashley : i ca n't believe this . i mean , look at you , working in this environment with two sisters . what did you do ? break it off with one just minutes before you hopped in the sack with the other one ? stitch : not to mention there was a long , hot shower with one of their mothers . ashley : oh , i do n't think you have to go there 'cause i 'm not gon na be the problem in the scenario . unless , of course , you hurt my daughter , and then i 'm gon na be a problem . i 'm gon na be a very big problem . you do realize that victoria is gon na make your life so miserable . i mean , incredibly miserable . stitch : i can handle it . ashley : do you think so ? stitch : yeah . ashley : you do n't know much about the abbotts and the newmans , then . this is war . stitch : victor and jack called the truce . ashley : [ laughs ] yeah . that 's not gon na last . no , it 's gon na be vicious . actually , you know , both sides , i think , are gon na feel entitled to claim you as their own . but you did say that you would stay through the launch of hex . and it 's been launched , so , you know , if you wanted to resign , i think everybody would totally understand that under the circumstances . they would . stitch : you did n't walk , and neither will i . ashley : i have a stake in this , ben . you do n't . stitch : i am an asset as a chemist and an ally . but , you know , if my being here makes you uncomfortable ... ashley : oh , no . not at all . hey , you know what ? maybe you would be useful . stay . absolutely . victor : well , kyle , my boy . kyle : victor . victor : i 'm so glad to know that you 're on board with the merger . kyle : yes , i trust my father 's business instinct . victor : yes , i remember how loyal you are to your dad . that 's a good thing . fortunately , we 're all working under the same side now . kyle : well , it 's a relief to know that everything will work out exactly as it 's supposed to . victor : i could n't agree more . you have a nice day . kyle : you , too . jack : so , you like my tie ? phyllis : i think it 's dashing . i approve . and i love that you 're stepping outside of your color comfort zone . jack : broadening my horizons . phyllis : that 's right . billy : okay , yeah , while this is all fascinating , i 'm gon na take off and let you guys eat . victor : billy , you 're more than welcome to stay . billy : well , as much as i would love to call your bluff , sit down with you , and share a meal -- because i know how much that would drive you crazy -- i 'm gon na go ahead and take off . victor : all right . bly : jack , um , if we could find some time to do this one - on - one . and , uh , i 'll be in touch , phyllis . victor : well , now , why do n't we adjourn to the tae and celebrate ? jack : shall we ? phyllis : we shall . ashley : victoria , do you have a problem with me going to lunch ? victoria : no , that sounds fine . ashley : thank you . victoria : oh , ashley . ashley : yes ? victoria : i 'd like to rethink the artwork in here . it just feels sort of off . i 'm thinking of bringing in some of my own things . ashley : well , it 's your office now . do whatever you want . [ door closes ] ashley : have you come to kiss the ring ? chelsea : excuse me ? ashley : if you 're looking for victoria , she 's in her office . the one with my name on the door . chelsea : [ sighs ] victoria ? victoria : chelsea , hello . i guess you heard about the changes from billy . chelsea : i did . and saw in the newspaper . i heard on the radio . i saw online . i just want to make sure you know how profitable chelsea by jabot has been . we have made a real impact on the market . as a matter of fact , i brought these spreadsheets to show all of our growth . victoria : oh , that 's very helpful . thank you . chelsea : my point is that jack fired billy . victor hates billy . i 'm a part of billy 's life now . however , that does not mean that i will allow you to use my business as some sort of a whip to get billy to fall into line . victoria : what ? chelsea : i wo n't let you threaten my company so that billy will do your bidding . even he wanted to , i wo n't allow it . i wo n't . so , he 's taking a stand . i 'm taking mine . i ha been approached by several other companies . i would be glad to take my sketches and go elsewhere . victoria : are you finished ? ashley : jack , if you have some kind of a plan in place that explains this merger , then i need to know what it is because corporate machinations aside , jack , this is a family business , and what you 're doing to our family , it 's just ... it 's unacceptable . i mean , honestly , jack , if you 're john abbott 's son , then you would n't do this . chelsea : yes , i am done . victoria : did you practice that on the car over ? i 'm just asking because that 's what i do , and it works . that was good . as for your file , i know how much value your line brings to the company . that 's the point of being coo . is recognizing value . and yes , my father hates billy . that 's not news . but i would have to be stupid to cut your line , and i 'm not stupid . chelsea : i guess i was just afraid that -- victoria : that i would turn this into something personal , but i wo n't . and i assume that you wo n't , either . chelsea : we both just want to make great products . victoria : and lots of money . i 'll be in touch . chelsea : okay . abby : victoria is mad . she can say that she 's not , but she is . she 's angry and hurt , and we did that to her when we ... last night . stitch : yeah , i know what we did . abby : maybe we should have waited . you know , like they say , wait an hour after you eat to go swimming . stitch : i did n't know there were rules for these sort of things . abby : yes , lots of rules . a whole book of etiquette . stitch : yeah , well , does that mean you regret what we did ? abby : i want to regret it , but i ca n't . [ scene_break ] phyllis : please excuse me . i need to powder my nose . victor : all right . phyllis : just be sure not to intimidate the other guests with your combined wealth and power . jack : sometimes we just ca n't help ourselves . victor : eyes on me . eyes on me ! what did i tell you about sticking to the damn script ? jack : come on . it 's a tie . she liked the tie . victor : it 's not about the damn tie . you are beginning to become very un- abbott - like . jack : i 'll handle it . victor : you do n't even know what it is that i want you to handle . jack : lighten up . what are you drinking , anyway ? victor : no drinking . jack : aye , aye , captain . victor : do you think this is a game ? this is very serious business , my friend . i know you love playing with jack abbott 's toys . i 'll put you back into that miserable peruvian prison . i got you out of it . i 'll put you back into it . [ next_on ] hilary : i 've been thinking about the way that we left things , and i wo n't let it end like that . colin : lauren is nothing if not an alluring woman . you might keep a close eye on your husband . dylan : i realize why you 're panicked , why you believe michael ca n't win ! because you 're guilty ! | billy and ashley are worried about jack and are determined to figure out why he is acting so strangely and why he merged jabot with newman enterprises . ashley is set on working from the inside of the company to protect jabot 's legacy although she is very angry that victoria is her new boss . ashley is also upset with jack for not fighting to keep the company name because he agreed that the company be called newman abbott enterprises . phyllis wants to trust that jack has a plan for victor 's downfall and persuades kyle to trust him , although jack 's behavior has given him doubts about him . | <s>[INST] stitch : did you bolt on me ? abby : i was just contemplating our rash behavior of yesterday . and last night and on and off all morning . stitch : yeah ? so , what did you decide ? abby : i do n't have enough information to make the call yet . stitch : on whether it was good or not ? abby : oh , it -- it was good . it was amazing . but ... was it right ? stitch : it was very right . come here . ashley : abby , it 's your mother . we need to talk about how to handle this merger , so please get to the lab a.s.a.p . well , hey , there . new look ? jack : why not ? listen , i came by to give you a heads up that victor and victoria are going to stop by for a visit today . ashley : really ? they too busy having to run newman ? jack : well , you know , the lab and hex have been a real boon to our mutual bottom line , and they know a good thing when they see it . ashley : well , victoria certainly saw a lot when she used stitch as an excuse to prowl around the lab . jack : well , we 're one big , happy family now . no snooping necessary . ashley : i 'm kind of hoping you 're gon na tell me what this is all about , because the only other alternative is that you 've lost touch with reality , jack . jack : actually , you know i love and respect you . either you 're with me or you 're against me . if you 're against me , maybe you ought to go with billy . [ door opens ] jack : and by that , i mean quit , just to be clear . victor : you know that ashley is the best in the business . you do n't want to lose her any more than i do . chelsea : well ? billy : well , it 's still there . jack made a deal with victor on purpose . here they are smiling , shaking hands . you know , there 's got to be only one explanation for this . pod people . alien impostors have come down to take over the world . chelsea : or this is jack 's choice and we have to deal with it . billy : or someone needs to smack the hell out of him and make him see sense . chelsea : let me guess . you are that guy . billy : in fact , i am . chelsea : [ chuckles ] billy : but you know what , chelsea ? it 's ... it 's not about the abbotts losing jabot . it 's about my brother losing his soul . kyle : weird , right ? phyllis : i ca n't look away . it 's mesmerizing . it 's like looking at bigfoot or the loch ness monster . kyle : do you think aunt ashley and uncle billy were right ? dad 's gone over the edge ? phyllis : i ca n't decide . maybe i set this all into motion . `` jack , be grateful that victor brought me out of a coma . jack , i need you and victor to help me expose kelly , `` and we just became this bizarre , little team that made absolutely no sense , but ... now victor is not trying to steal jabot , and jack is not trying to steal newman . and ... well , i do n't know . maybe this is how all wars should end -- with a handshake and a smile . kyle : you do n't sound completely convinced there . phyllis : smelling booze on your father 's breath really did n't make me feel warm and fuzzy about everything . kyle : are you sure that it was n't spilled on him or something ? phyllis : he admitted to taking a drink . and then he calmly played it off . kyle : he would never do that , all right ? that 's not dad . chelsea : okay , give me that . i am cutting you off . billy : all right . but it does n't change anything , though . my entire life , it 's been drilled into my head . you know , `` you protect the family name , you protect jabot at all costs . `` you know , and half the time , i sucked at it -- hell , three - quarters . but i ca n't turn my back on it now . chelsea : maybe you should trust ashley to protect jabot from the inside . billy : against victor ? she ca n't do that by herself . we need a team . we need allies . what the hell happened to your superfan , gabriel , huh ? i mean , he was always fired up to be by jack 's side , and he loved playing hero in front of you . so this is his shot . where is he ? i mean , he claims he hates victor , but he 's awol . nowhere to be found . so what the hell 's up with that ? i mean , what ? did you reject him one too many times ? kyle : if dad 's acting like a drink is no big deal , then he 's not in a good place . phyllis : look , i was there when jack detoxed . i reminded him of that . i pointed out that booze can be a gateway to pills . kyle : oh , and he what ? had another shot ? phyllis : no . it was n't like that . it was n't an addict rationalizing away a slip . he was jack . my husband . your father . explaining that it was a one - time thing in honor of the merger . kyle : the merge . great . that 's two things that make absolutely no sense at all . phyllis : i 'm not gon na argue with you on that . kyle : i do n't know . well , what is dad going after with this merger , then ? like , does he have an endgame in mind ? phyllis : it 's a possibility . kyle : you asked him . phyllis : he implied it . he asked me to trust him , so i am . now it 's your turn . can you trust your father for his sake ? jack : no one knows any better than i do my sister 's value to this company , but i have more than one priority . helping a smooth transition is one . keeping my sister happy is another . and i do n't want her to be miserable working with us . ashley : i 'm so happy right now , jack . i 'm incredibly happy . victor : ashley , you 're oozing sarcasm , but i truly hope that you come to believe that , you know ? meanwhile , jack , you and i shall do everything in our power to make ashley feel very comfortable . jack : of course . victor : all right . shall we adjourn ? victoria , my darling , let me see that logo . victoria : okay . victor : show it to ashley . let 's see what you think of the new logo . ashley : that was fast , was n't it ? boom , boom , boom . newman - abbott ? victor : well , you did n't expect that to be abbott - newman , now , did you ? ashley : actually , i did n't expect to see abbott at all . victoria : well , it carries weight in the business community . ashley : does it really , victoria ? thank you so much for sharing that information . i thought maybe it would be jabot , that 's all . or were you thinking if that was the case , that if our father was here to see it , he would be horrified ? jack : i 'm sorry ? oh , i had a text . victor : anyway , there 's a lot of history and baggage between our families . i thought that we could move beyond that . ashley : if you ' referring to the history that victoria and i share , both distant and more recent , i assure you that i can put it aside because that 's what adults do when they have to work together . victor : well , i 'm very happy to hear that , ashley . but let me just correct your assumption . it is t that you will be working with victoria . you 'll be working for victoria . kyle : dad would never let victor swallow jabot whole . no matter what he aged to , he would never willingly let it go . now , if he 's self - medicating because he 's stressed or -- phyllis : he swore that drink was a one - time thing . he 's in a good place . trust him . and me , okay ? kyle : okay . i 'm with you and dad . no matter how uncomfortable this whole thing makes me . phyllis : you know what ? that 's what faith is about -- trusting your gut . i just wish the rest of the family would get onboard . because no matter how centered jack is right now , he will be so pissed off if the rest of the family can not trust his vision . chelsea : i have no idea why gabe took off . um , maybe -- maybe it was getting the divorce papers from sage . billy : yeah , that 's it , because she was his priority . chelsea : jack going rogue -- i mean , why -- why are you making this about gabriel ? billy : you 're right . it 's not about him . with any luck , he 's gone for good and we 'll have new neighbors by next week . in the meantime , i got to figure out how to keep the abbott family from being completely waylaid by snidely . time to circle the wagons . chelsea : i did n't know you had a wagon . billy : oh , we have wagons . a whole fleet of them . i 'll keep you posted . chelsea : okay . love you . billy : love you . chelsea : [ sighs ] you 're still not answering . gabe , it 's me again . um ... i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i know you were expecting more after we ... but i -- it 's my fault , and i 'm sorry , and i 'm with billy now . [ door opens ] chelsea : but if you care at all about the company , if you care about your friendship with jack , you will come home . we need you . professionally -- professionally speaking . jabot -- jabot needs you . so ... just , uh ... just come home . gloria : who was that ? abby : do n't you feel bad now ? stitch : i do n't know . bad is not what i 'm feeling right now . [ chuckles ] abby : that you hated me at first . stitch : hated you ? i hated you ? me ? abby : yes . yes , it was obvious . stitch : okay , i think you 're projecting , because you were a total brat to me nonstop , first about the billy and victoria thing and then lying about my past . abby : okay , i can admit it . i was . but you can admit that you hated me . stitch : you were annoying but kind of appealing . abby : appealing ? stitch : yeah . it 's a polite way of saying sexy . abby : you did not think i was sexy back then . stitch : i did . i mean , i definitely do now . sweet and sexy and sweet . abby : wait , wait . um ... are we just gon na ignore the mention of billy and victoria ? i mean , mainly victoria and . ? we have n't really had a chance to talk about you two . stitch : there is n't much to say . you know , we parted ways . it -- it was mutual . it took us awhile to figure out , but , you know , we saw it coming . it took us a little while to figure things out , so ... abby : and now you have ? stitch : now we have . abby : hmm . wait . h - mnh . no , no , no , no , no . stitch : no , no , no , no , no ? abby : no . no , no . we have jobs that we have to get to , at least for right now . and we have to see what fresh hell awaits us at work . stitch : yeah , we do . abby : yeah . mm - hmm . we do . stitch : [ sighs ] abby : oh , gosh . mom is freaking out , and uncle jack wants us there . stitch : yeah , we 're late . okay . victor : this merger obviously calls for restructuring , so from now on , victoria will be chief operating officer . ashley : congratulations . i assume i 'll still be reporting to you ? victoria : actually , you 'll be reporting to me , given my experience in cosmetics . ashley : [ laughs ] like we do n't have any experience ? jack does n't have decades of experience in cosmetics ? victoria : granted , but i do have a personal investment in all of the brands . ashley : did y hear what she said ? she has a personal investment . not that any abbott would . please tell me you did n't agree to this . tell me . jack : jabot is now part of a larger newman - abbott enterprises . your answering to the chief operating officer simply means this is a lateral move . ashley : answering to a newman about anything to do with jabot is not a lateral move , jack , and you know it . you told me you were gon na make me co - ceo before you went to get married . jack : the merger was n't an issue at that time . ashley : so hex is a huge success and i 'm still not co - ceo and now this ? you know , this kind of reminds me of when adam 's office was moved to the men 's room 'cause you were trying to show him who 's boss . victor : it 's not quite like that . this move is an attempt to create a framework so that we can make the most efficient version of our company . victoria : a version that will provide hex and you a much larger platform than what you had before . but if you do n't see the benefits of us working together , then maybe it makes sense at you stay in the lab . your skills as a chemist are excellent , and if you 're gon na let your emotion cloud your judgment , then clearly you a not the leadership that this company is calling for . ashley : so , this is how you keep me happy , huh ? jack : welcome to our brave , new world . chelsea : i was leaving a message for billy . and you could have knocked and not eavesdropped . gloria : was n't locked . you know me . ca n't resist the opportunity to listen in . tidbits come in handy sometimes . chelsea : you are starting to sound as shifty as my father . gloria : i do n't know about that . jeffrey 's spending all of his time at the yacht club since we got back to town . decided to take up racing . wants to race in the america 's cu between you and me , the only cup he 's interested in is a double - d . chelsea : i 'm sorry that we have to do it here today . connor 's nanny quit . she got into medical school . gloria : the nerve of some people ! chelsea : [ chuckles ] actually , it 's better . i do n't really love the idea of being at the office these days . too many people jockeying for position . gloria : no , no , no , no , no . that 's where you should be -- jockeying yourself . chelsea : oh , no , that -- my -- my job is safe . gloria : really ? and my dear john thought his family company would last for generations . god rest his soul , but he must be rolling in his grave . chelsea : oh , yeah . i forget you two were married . gloria : not a day goes by i do n't think about that wonderful man . unfortunately , jackie boy did n't inherit his father 's qualities . selling out to that devil ? chelsea : it was a merger , not a sale . gloria : oh , come on , chelsea . i was n't born yesterday , and neither were you . jabot is as good as kaput . and you will be , too , if you 're not careful . and where does that leave me ? chelsea : you ? gloria : yes , me . oh , come on . my god - given talent wasted . i have ideas that will put your line in the stratosphere . chelsea : oh , my line 's already huge . gloria : really ? not by victor newman 's standards . or his daughter 's , for that matter . and if memory serves , you and victoria have a little bit of a history and not all of it good . and then there 's that little matter of you sleeping with her ex -- again . come on . you do n't think she 's going to prove who 's calling the shots ? you be careful , chelsea , or you 're gon na be on the street . ashley : just to be clear , i 'm not going to quit this job , no matter how insulting it is . i 'm gon na fight for my father 's legacy because somebody has to . victor : i 'm so glad to hear that , ashley . we think very highly of you . we need you to succeed . and , uh , we 'll give you all the assistance you need . jack : wonderful ! so , shall we continue the tour ? i have some other things i 'd like to show you . victor : you lead the way . leave you two alone . jack : really ? you could n't just let her quit ? that woman is hot , but she is a pain in my ass . victor : you listen to me . she is your sister . we need her to succeed . jack : she does n't like me . victor : she does n't think that you are quite right in the head . you 're a little cuckoo , do you understand ? jack : people change . victor : they do n't change that much . you do not make her question your behavior again . is that clear ? jack : i do n't think she thinks anything but who i am . same thing with my wife . incidentally , phyllis is a tiger ! victor : will you start acting like an adult ? victoria : ashley , i actually think i 'm gon na need a home base here in the lab . this office seems to be the most logical solution . ashley : my office ? victoria : it would be great if you could clear away some of these things as soon as possible . oh , and you know what ? you can base your office right out there in the lab . be perfect . you know , just clear away some of your things and then you can be there right on top of everything . is that a problem ? ashley : oh , no . i think i can make that work . victoria : great . i hope that all of the other employees are as resourceful as you are . victor : do n't you get cocky . you have a face like jack abbott . that 's why they think you are jack abbott . but your behavior is becoming a little cuckoo . do you understand ? that tie , for example . jack : a little color in the old guy 's life . victor : that is not what he would wear . i 'm telling you . jack : he would n't merge his company with yours , either . come on . i 'm having lunch with the missus . victor : you are doing no such thing . you 're not going to have lunch with her by yourself . jack : no , i can handle phyllis . victor : there is too much at stake . you will not have lunch with her by yourself . you got it ? i call the shots here . abby : hi ! hi , got your messages . lots of them . [ laughs ] victor : hi , sweetheart . abby : hi . victor : you 've heard of the wonderful merger ? abby : yes , yes . and the company is just like me -- a newman - abbott production . wow . [ laughs ] and -- and you 're okay with this ? jack : could n't be better . now , if you 'll excuse us , we have some place we have to be . victor : we 'll be right back . abby : okay . victor : yep . abby : `` we . `` he just said `` we , `` talking about him and my dad , and it was n't about killing each other . stitch : what can i say ? lot of things changed yesterday . ashley : oh , yeah . look who 's here . finally . abby : i 'm sorry . ashley : do n't tell it to me . tell it to the boss . billy : so , did you see it ? titans of industry smiling , shaking hands for the camera in our lab ? phyllis : you mean this wonderful moment of glory ? billy : yeah , that would be it . so , how does this not have you climbing the walls ? kyle : well , phyllis and i have been talking about it . dad must have a plan . billy : right , right . and if he does n't ? phyllis : can you support your brother maybe ? billy : i will do my brotherly duty by making sure that jack sees partnering with victor is a colossal mistake . and you are gon na help me . victoria : good morning . it 's good to see you both . finally . abby : you , too ? wow .

i was so focused on getting here that i did n't think about anything else . jade : look , there ca n't be that many theaters here . we just have to find the one where she 's performing and somebody 's got ta know where she is or where she 's staying . luke : no , that could take a really long time . jade : well , do you have a better plan ? luke : no , but we have to move quickly . if cleo could run will 's car off the road , she 's capable of anything . will : cleo , you coming ? gwen : hey , does this look okay ? tim : wow , you look great . gwen : great . i was n't sure . this whole press thing is really new to me . tim : sorry you did n't know about the reception . thanks for stepping up . gwen : oh , of course . it 's fine . i mean , it 's why i 'm here . tim : i knew you really have n't had a lot time to yourself -- gwen : well , i was hoping that i got some more time when the rehearsal went so smoothly . tim : oh , man , you were amazing . you 've got your own sound and you connect with your audience . get ready , gwen , 'cause people are going to take notice . you 're going to have a big career , if you want it . gwen : well , i 'm gon na put that on hold for a while . you know , just while i finish school . tim : do n't be mad if i try and change your mind about that -- because the way i see it , you have everything it takes to be a star . dusty : i 'm glad you and alison are back together . aaron : yeah , i guess being stubborn worked in my favor for once . dusty : seems that way . aaron : ali told me how you and emily helped her in vegas . sounds like she was in a lot of trouble . i owe you . dusty : no . just be good to her . aaron : oh , i will . we 're getting a chance to start over -- with everything out in the open -- i 'm not messing that up . susan : look at those handsome guys at our table . looks like things are finally picking up for you two . alison : i think it 's a little too soon to say that . emily : yeah , no one 's walking down the aisle anytime soon . susan : do n't be so negative . alison : look who 's talking . susan : oh , i know i 've been a little rough on you two lately . alison : mom , you were humiliated by what we did . and i do n't blame you . susan : i do n't want to talk about that . that 's in the past , and that 's where it 's going to stay . i 'm very proud of the way we all came through it . together . emily : me , too . susan : and i like very much the way you two took care of each other . that tells me i did something right . well , you go on ahead . alison , i 'll meet you at the car with aaron . i 've got to go check on a patient . emily : okay , mom . see you later . bye . alison : she 's right . you did n't just look out for me . you pulled me back from the edge , and i never really thanked you for that . emily : honey , you do n't have to thank me . you 're here . that 's all i need . alison : i know , but my life would be very different right now if you had n't tracked me down , stood up to lance , put up with my attitude -- emily : ali , you 're my sister . there is n't anything i would n't do for you . alison : yeah , i think i put that to the test . i hope you know how much you mean to me . emily : just be happy , ali . leave the mistakes behind . alison : yeah , it 's not that easy when you 've made as many as i have . but i hope you know i would never deliberately hurt you . emily : of course i know that . what is this , lunch or group therapy ? alison : i think lunch is officially over . aaron : are you ready to run ? alison : all set . mom said she 'd catch with us outside . emily : i 'll see you guys later . good - bye . good - bye . aaron : bye . this was actually fun . alison : try not to sound so surprised . aaron : i 'm just being honest . we agreed , yeah ? okay . emily : okay , totally honest -- how was it for you ? on a scale of one to ten , ten being excruciating . dusty : it was good . i like your family . i feel like we have chaperones every time we 're on a date . emily : you do ? wait a minute . are we -- are we dating ? noah : dad , i 'm supposed to register in a few weeks . you ca n't back out now . it 's not fair . colonel mayer : do n't raise your voice to me . and i can do whatever hell i damn well please . noah : but we went over the numbers . i do n't understand . did n't you put money aside for this ? colonel mayer : it 's not the money . noah : then what is it ? everything i did in high school was about getting into northwestern . i 'm finally going to study filmmaking and directing . it 's all i want . colonel mayer : what you want is to play out your fantasies while i invest what amounts to the price of a house into a dead end . that 's not going to happen . it 's time for you to grow up and get serious . noah : my internship at woak is serious . colonel mayer : it 's a waste of time . they get free labor , you get a form letter and a pat on the back . noah : just because it 's not for you , does n't make it useless . colonel mayer : there 's work to be done in this country , noah . hard work . and you come from a long line of men who have been giving it for years . noah : i work hard . colonel mayer : you do n't know what that means . but you will . this fall , instead of enrolling in college , you 'll enlist . noah : so that 's it ? do n't i get any say in this ? colonel mayer : i am not going to stand back and let you drift into a world that has no substance . you are going to take your place in a long , proud tradition -- like i did , like my father did before me , and his father before that . noah : look dad , i do n't want a career in the military . colonel mayer : you can decide that after you 've served and the army 's made a man out of you -- something i 've obviously failed to do . noah : what about northwestern ? what about what i want ? colonel mayer : we 'll talk about that and your tuition fund after you 've served . not before . are we clear ? noah : yes , sir . perfectly clear . maddie : casey would n't block my calls . there has to be a mistake . operator : i 've doubled checked , you 're not on his list . maddie : well , could you please check again ? or let me talk to him in person . please , we need to clear this up . operator : i 'm sorry , there 's nothing more i can do . maddie : casey , why are you doing this ? gwen : honestly , i do n't really think the whole star thing is for me . tim : you ca n't know that . gwen : actually , i do . i had a little taste of it . but thanks for the compliment . maybe it 'll ward off stage fright right before i go on . will : if you do get shaky , all you have to do is look at me . gwen : hey , you 're here . just promise me you 'll sit in the front row . will : oh , i 'm going to be there . is this what you 're wearing to the concert ? gwen : no , there 's this thing at the titanic museum ahead of time . tim actually just told me that i have to make an appearance there . will : so you 're going to be busy right up until show time ? gwen : want to come with me ? will : no . you 're gon na be tied up , and you do n't want to have to worry about if i have somebody to talk to or not . gwen : you can look around the museum . tim : yeah . there 's this tank where you can stick your hand in the water and feel the exact temperature of the atlantic when the ship went down . cleo : wow ! that sounds so cool . i mean freezing , actually -- you know what i mean . silly . gwen : come on . go with me . we can go to tony z 's afterward . you can tell me about your day . will : why do n't we save that for after the concert ? i 'll stay busy somehow . i 'll figure something out . cleo : i make sure will never gets bored . gwen : good . i 'm glad you guys are keeping each other busy . what 's with the elf statue ? cleo : oh , it 's not a statue -- it 's a garden gnome . it brings good luck . gwen : oh . i thought they were supposed to scare deer away . cleo : well , that 's good luck for the plants . will got it for me . and it was n't even my birthday or anything . gwen : i guess he likes you . cleo : i know . tim : we should take off . will : knock them dead . and i 'll see you before you go onstage . gwen : i 'll be waiting . will : seeing as how we 're back here , i 'm going to go up to the room . cleo : oh , wait . no , not yet . i have to show you something . will : what ? cleo : it 's a surprise . please . it wo n't take very long , i promise . dusty : it 's been at least a decade since someone asked me if we were dating . emily : i thought it was a reasonable question . dusty : do you have to label it ? emily : well , we 've moved beyond friendship , right ? i 'm just curious how far past friendship . dusty : i think we have real potential . emily : even though you know everything about me ? dusty : i 'm sure i do n't , but yeah . emily : i like you too , dusty . but if i 'm not careful , i 'm going to do what i always do . dusty : what 's that ? emily : wreck this before it ever gets off the ground . susan : i 'm in a time warp . alison : seeing us together again ? susan : catching you in here smooching in my living room while i 'm off to work . it 's like you 're in high school again . aaron : ahh , you kick me out , i 'll just sneak back in once you 're gone . susan : do n't i know it ? just stay out of trouble . alison : we 'll be fine , mom . susan : sure you will . see you later , ali . bye , baby . alison : bye . aaron : your mother just gave me an idea . alison : i 'm not putting on that cheerleader outfit , if that 's what you 're thinking . aaron : no , let 's do what we used to do . rent a couple of movies , make some popcorn , curl up on the couch -- alison : you can watch me fall asleep . aaron : love to . maybe get a couple of movies worth watching . and some worth completely ignoring . [ alison laughs ] alison : your keys are by there . aaron : see you in a little . alison : call me if you get stumped . you 're always forgetting your phone . lance : he 's gone . did you miss me ? alison : get out , lance ! lance : and we 're off to bad start already . noah : what 's up with you ? maddie : nothing . noah : come on , maddie . something happened . maddie : i -- i really do n't feel like talking about it . noah : is it casey ? is he okay ? maddie : i do n't know . he would n't get on the phone when i called . noah : he would n't even talk to you ? maddie : nope . he told the operator or whoever not to accept my calls , i guess . i 'm -- i 'm cut off . i guess he decided to break up with me . noah : you obviously did n't see this coming . maddie : no , not for a minute . i mean , i know that in his letter he told me -- he told me not to wait for him anymore , but i thought that if he missed me as much as i miss him and i called , that he would at least get on the phone . noah : maybe he just felt too weird talking to you from prison . maddie : no , it 's not that . he wants to be noble and set me free whether it 's what i want or not . noah : that 's not fair . maddie : and it 's like , i do n't even get a say . why does he get to decide what 's best for me ? noah : he does n't . look , maddie , i 've never met the guy , but he sounds like someone who always puts himself first , okay ? what he wants . what he needs . and even if you play by his rules , you get shot down . you deserve somebody so much better than that ! maddie : are you okay ? noah : you know , i did n't have such a good day either . look , we should just both get out of here . maddie : do n't you want to get footage from the reception at the museum ? noah : no . no , it 's not even on the list and we both need to shake these moods . i mean , let 's go have some fun . you 're not going to make me do this by myself , are you ? jade : no matter how i try to say this to gwen , this news about cleo 's latest stunt is going to be a really hard sell . luke : well , maybe not . you brought me to back you up . jade : yeah , maybe we should have brought more of that confetti that was cleo 's diary . luke : no , will and gwen do not need to see anymore . just a few quotes and they 'll know that cleo is really crazy . jade : no , cleo 's got such a good way of making herself looking really innocent and making me take the fall . oh my god , luke look . luke : oh , this is great . this is great . now we know where gwen 's playing . the andy williams moon river theater . now all we have to do is hope that 's not too far away . here , take this . i 'm going to go get us directions . jade : cleo , you are so busted . will : so this is your surprise ? more trees ? cleo : i thought that you and gwen moved into the cottage so you could appreciate nature more . will : we did . cleo : so , take a minute to look at the beauty that 's right in front of you . you might see something that surprises you . will : it 's very peaceful out here . i did n't know i came out here for a field trip , though , so we should head back to the inn . cleo : just stay with me . just a little bit longer . i do n't think i should be out here alone . please ? i went on the roller coaster with you . will : you did . all right . just for a few minutes though . cleo : okay . will ? will : yeah ? cleo : i was thinking that i should probably name this guy . do you want to help ? will : no , that should be your department . cleo : how about bashful ? [ will laughing ] will : you really like him do n't you ? cleo : oh , yes . he 's the very best present i 've ever gotten . will : what about the cd that gwen gave you ? cleo : no , this is better because it 's from you . will : oh , we should head back , really . cleo : no , not until i do this . [ cleo kisses will ] will : cleo ! what are you doing ? cleo : its okay , i 'm just showing you how i feel . will : cleo , it 's not okay ! cleo : no , it really is okay because i love you . alison : lance , this is my mother 's house . if you do n't leave , i 'm calling the cops . are n't you supposed to be in jail ? lance : got ta love our justice system , huh ? just chill out , all right ? i just wanted to see what you thought was better than a huge career . a life of luxury , huh ? so , this is it ? this is what you want , ali ? you want to just hide in your mommy 's house and pretend you 're a little kid ? alison : i 'm doing what 's best for me . lance : whatever . you were hauled back here . you did n't choose this . alison : this is what i want , now . lance : you used to want so much more . excitement , glamour , real opportunities , you know ? alison : what opportunities ? to get hooked on drugs ? lance : you were my golden girl . i did everything for you . i gave you a name . i gave you an opportunity to make more money than you ever imagined . and you want to forget me . you know what , ali ? sometimes i want to forget you , too . you see , it 's just not that easy for me . come here . why do n't you take a good look at what you did to me ? alison : i wanted you to get away from me . you would n't leave me alone ! lance : so , the guy who put the stitches in said this is for keeps . so that i 'll always have this little reminder of you right here , is n't that nice ? alison : i 'm sorry . lance : why ? because you cut me ? because you left me ? you know , i ca n't get even get girls in vegas to work for me because they think i 'm a freak . alison : i did n't mean to hurt you , lance . you know that . lance : yeah , i do know that . all right , so , i 'll forgive you if you come back to vegas and work for me , all right ? alison : i 'm not doing that . lance : i need you to come back so the other girls will work for me and know i 'm not such a bad guy . you owe me that . alison : i do n't owe you anything . and you ca n't push me around anymore . lance : all right , is this about the boyfriend ? is he your boyfriend ? yeah , he must be because he 's invited to all of the family meals with mom and sis . do n't worry he 's -- he 's not going to be any trouble for us . jade : where the hell are they ? we 're in the right place are n't we ? luke : yeah , but she should be back soon . the benefit starts in about an hour . jade : maybe she went back to the hotel . luke : why ? jade : i do n't know ? maybe she left something . can you go check on that ? luke : okay . are you going to stay here ? jade : yeah , i might as well . they got to be back sooner or later with or without cleo . will : cleo , you do n't love me . cleo : yes , i do . i cross my heart . and we had the best time today , did n't we ? i mean you smiled and laughed the entire day . you never smile when you 're with gwen . will : cleo , i do n't know what you think you see but i love my wife . cleo : she does n't make you happy , will . not the way that i do . and she knows that . she even said that she wanted us to spend more time together . will : i think she was trying to be nice , cleo , she did n't realize you were going to jump me in the woods . cleo : well , when a relationship is n't working , it 's better if you just walk away , especially if somebody better comes along . will : do you mean you ? cleo : i 've stopped fighting it . will : well , do n't . cleo , i 'm never going to return any feelings you have for me . i do n't know what you were thinking . you 're going to try and bring me out here to make some kind of confession and i , what ? cleo : i thought you might be too surprised to speak at first and you know what ? that 's okay . because i know how you feel in the inside . i know that you love me too . will : cleo , you 're wrong -- i do n't ! cleo : well , maybe just not yet . will : no , not ever ! cleo : will , you have to understand that some things are just meant to be . and when gwen asked me to come to branson , i knew that it was going to happen . it was my destiny . and it was my chance to be with you , forever . will : really ? cleo : and you know what ? i was right . it 's so much better than pistachio ice cream and sprinkles all mixed together . will : oh my god , that 's what jade said you wrote in your diary . cleo : you have to understand will , gwen wants her career . all i want is you . will : cleo , i do n't care what you want . cleo : i 'll be good for you , will . gwen always lets jade get in the middle of things and i 've already proven to you that i 'd never , ever , let that happen . will : you have ? cleo : well , she 's gone is n't she ? i made sure she went to jail . and she 's never , ever , ever going to come back . she does n't bother you anymore , does she ? will : you did it . you drove me off the road ! you could have killed me ! cleo : oh no , i 'd never let that happen . i 'm a smashing driver . will : you 're a lunatic , cleo ! cleo : i stayed to make sure that you were okay . will : i was unconscious ! cleo : just for a little bit . everything worked out fine . will : no , it did n't . but it will now . we 're going to the cops and you are going to tell them everything you just told me -- and you 're going to be the one locked up , for good ! dusty : you 're not the only one who 's nervous about this , you know , i mean -- us . emily : you ? no way . dusty : yeah . anyone in on the whites of my eyes , i get nervous . emily : well , then i must be in the danger zone . dusty : you are . and i do n't like talking about feelings . emily : really ? i figured that about you . do n't worry . you 're secret 's safe with me . wait a minute -- i thought you were the guy who said he did n't have any secrets ? dusty : nobody 's perfect . emily : no , just you are the closest thing i know to perfect . dusty : i was trying to be perfect before my wife died . i thought if i did everything right , we 'd be set . emily : yeah , and you 've been punishing yourself ever since . it 's not what jen would 've wanted . dusty : i 've spent a lot of time figuring that out . emily : it takes time to heal . you ca n't blame yourself for that , you know ? dusty : i blame myself for letting my son disappear from my life . trusting anyone is major for me . but i 'll try . emily : even with a -- an ex - hooker ? dusty : someone who 's worth it . whatever it takes . aaron : hey , what are you doing here . holden : hey . i had to drop faith off for a dance class . you shopping for videos ? aaron : rentals . for ali and me . holden : you 're back together ? just like that ? aaron : well , we 're working on it . you got a problem with that ? holden : no , no ! after everything you told me -- i just think it 's a little soon to be jumping back into a relationship . aaron : this feels like i 'm in the right place with the right person . holden : with the same person who lied to you more than once . aaron : well , she 's not lying now . holden : how do you know ? how can you be sure ? aaron : i just know . okay ? i mean , the things ali told me , what she 's been through , i mean , that 's intense . she was ashamed and she was embarrassed . but she told me everything , dad . holden : okay . aaron : you 're saying okay , but -- holden : i just ca n't remember a time when she was n't lying to you about something . aaron : well , that time is over , okay ? she 's not doing it anymore . holden : what can i say ? you 're my son , she hurt you , i 'm just looking out for you . aaron : that 's cool that you 're worrying about me , dad . do n't worry about this . i got it covered . alison : forget all the threats you used before . okay ? everyone knows about everything ! all of it ! lance : somehow i doubt that . alison : it 's true . and you know i 'm never going to do meth again , so you really have nothing to hold over my head . lance : you were on the brink of a major career move , ali . how can i let you give that up ? alison : what am i giving up ? being ashamed of who i am ? what i 'm doing ? lance : well , that 's some attitude . what do you think you 're better than me now ? alison : i do n't think i 'm better than anyone . i 've just found something that works for me . lance : working in a diner ? alison : being with my family . lance : oh , that 's sweet . alison : they care about me ! lance : yeah , they 're going to keep telling you that , ali . but honey , because of me , your videos are flying off the shelves and you might nominated for newcomer of the year . alison : i 'm not interested . lance : well , maybe your boyfriend is . alison : there you -- he knows everything . so you ca n't blackmail me ! lance : i think you may have left a thing or two out . should i check ? alison : leave aaron alone ! lance : aaron , huh ? you mean , you actually went back with that jerk after he threw you away ? alison : he loves me . lance : oh , yeah ? what 's he doing about it , huh ? i used to do everything for you ! and you just slam the door in my face ! alison : i 'm not his meal ticket ! lance : give him time . alison : just get out ! go ! lance : that 's not very friendly after i 've come all this way , and i 've invested so much in you ! alison : you 've gotten all you 're going to get from me ! lance : you do n't get to make that call , i do ! and we are far from finished . maddie : noah ? noah : i 'm sorry . maddie : um , for what ? why are you apologizing ? noah : for being here . you probably want your privacy . maddie : no , it 's okay . so do you want to talk about what happened earlier ? noah : my dad came by and we had one of our famous father / son chats . maddie : oh , he must be really proud that you 're doing a segment for `` oakdale now . `` noah : he does n't give a damn about that , maddie . maddie : really ? does n't he realize that you get to make your own reel ? noah : maddie , he thinks anything having to do with theater , tv , film , whatever -- if it has anything to do with the entertainment industry , it must be a total waste of time . maddie : why ? what you 're doing takes real talent . and you 're going to develop that talent even more when you get to northwestern . noah : i 'm not going . maddie : what ? since when ? noah : since my father told me that i have to become a man and enlist in the army , just like every other male in my family . maddie : seriously ? noah : seriously . maddie : i mean , ca n't you tell him that you 're going to making movies about the army instead ? noah : he 's not giving me a choice . maddie , he 's not going to pay my tuition . maddie : wow , that 's major . noah : yeah , i 'm not sure i can get loans on my own . maddie : i 'm so sorry , noah . i wish there were something i could do . noah : it 's like the whole bottom just fell out of my whole future . that 's why when you were telling me that casey 's trying to shut you out , i could relate . maddie : casey 's trying to control me . just like your father is trying to control you . noah : it 's always been like between me and my dad . when i graduated high school , i thought i was going to finally to have something of my own . you know , college was supposed to be my great escape . and just as i 'm out the door , he sets another trap for me . maddie : you 're not going to enlist , are you ? noah : i do n't know what i 'm going to do . can we not talk about it though ? maddie : sure . sure . let me get this for you still . you 're kind of wet . um , i 'm really sorry , noah .

[ scene_break ] sonny : we got to go . lucy 's expecting us at the book signing . why did i give her money to write that book ? carly : honey .

cristian : that guy just stuck a gun in our faces in broad daylight like it was nothing . and you -- whathe hell was that ? do you have some kind of death wish ? sarah : i 'm sorry i shot my mouth off . it was just the weirdest thing . i felt like -- like -- like we were n't alone . cristian : what , did you think we had some kind of backup ? sarah : no . no . um , i just -- i do n't know -- i -- i had a feeling . cristian : you think yoheard nash ? look , that 's -- that 's normal . he 's been on your mind , so -- sarah : no , it was n't nash . i feel like i heard my mother . todd : you 're fon -- you 're fondling my constitutional rights , you know . john : not much there . if you got a complaint , yocan tell it to the dead police commissioner downstairs . todd : you have a boo - boo on your shoulder . john : yeah . what are you doing here , manning ? todd : oh , i just came in , check out my old digs and make ramsey another offer on the place . blair kicked me out , so i 'm looking for a place to call home . starr : as much as cole thinks he 's ready for a kid , he 's really not . langston : starr , he 's so into this baby . starr : no , he 's into the idea . he wants a family and i get that , but he 's not thinking about what he 's going to miss out on -- like school and college . langston : but ca n't you guys still do that stuff ? starr : ok , and who 's going to raise the baby ? a nanny ? my mom ? that 's not fair . and as much as cole says it did n't bother him , i know he wanted to shoot hoops with the guys . i -- i know that he wants to go on this roller coaster , and he was just as out of ideas when we were with sam in the park as i was . we were freaking out . langston : when it really comes down to it , i mean -- starr : ok , i know that i 'm doing the right thing , langston . but hoam i going to tell cole that -- that we should give this baby away ? i mean , this is the only family that cole has left in this world . john : just happen to show up here ? then what ? todd : i found ramsey dead and the other two guys dead . john : yeah . friends of yours ?

cristian : that guy just stuck a gun in our faces in broad daylight like it was nothing . and you -- whathe hell was that ? do you have some kind of death wish ? sarah : i 'm sorry i shot my mouth off . it was just the weirdest thing . i felt like -- like -- like we were n't alone . cristian : what , did you think we had some kind of backup ? sarah : no . no . um , i just -- i do n't know -- i -- i had a feeling . cristian : you think yoheard nash ? look , that 's -- that 's normal . he 's been on your mind , so -- sarah : no , it was n't nash . i feel like i heard my mother . todd : you 're fon -- you 're fondling my constitutional rights , you know . john : not much there . if you got a complaint , yocan tell it to the dead police commissioner downstairs . todd : you have a boo - boo on your shoulder . john : yeah . what are you doing here , manning ? todd : oh , i just came in , check out my old digs and make ramsey another offer on the place . blair kicked me out , so i 'm looking for a place to call home . starr : as much as cole thinks he 's ready for a kid , he 's really not . langston : starr , he 's so into this baby . starr : no , he 's into the idea . he wants a family and i get that , but he 's not thinking about what he 's going to miss out on -- like school and college . langston : but ca n't you guys still do that stuff ? starr : ok , and who 's going to raise the baby ? a nanny ? my mom ? that 's not fair . and as much as cole says it did n't bother him , i know he wanted to shoot hoops with the guys . i -- i know that he wants to go on this roller coaster , and he was just as out of ideas when we were with sam in the park as i was . we were freaking out . langston : when it really comes down to it , i mean -- starr : ok , i know that i 'm doing the right thing , langston . but hoam i going to tell cole that -- that we should give this baby away ?

[ scene_break ] gigi : you 're right ; the truth is the only thing i have left . schuyler : yeah , i know it 's a risk , but it 's worth it if it means getting them to understand why you need this favor so badly . natalie : truth from you ? i 'd love to hear what that sounds like . gigi : natalie , i love your brother . i have never stopped loving him and i never will . natalie : cheating on him while his son is fighting cancer , is that the way you show love ? because if it is , i -- i 'd hate to see -- jared : sparky . schuyler : tell them . it 's okay . gigi : my sister forced me to give rex up . jared : forced you . how ? gigi : she refused to give shane the stem cells that saved his life unless i gave rex up . jared : you 're kidding . schuyler : she 's been obsessed with rex since they were in , like , high school . gigi : and i did n't have any idea about that . and all of a sudden , my son 's life is on the line , and he needed a transplant as soon as possible , and the one donor we got from the registry fell through . schuyler : and stacy said she was a match . gigi : and she made it real clear that she would only donate under one condition . jared : that you broke up with rex . gigi : yeah , stacy told me to my face that she would n't lift a finger to save my son 's life unless she was sure that i had broken up with rex . natalie : that 's -- hey , but could n't you have -- gigi : have faked it ? my sister is not an idiot . not when it comes to men . and she was watching rex like a hawk . any fake - out , she would have smelled it from a mile away . i had no choice . i had to make rex believe that it was over between us or she would have let shane die . so i fixed it so that rex would walk in on brody and me . i was pretending to have an affair so i could -- so i could break rex 's heart . [ scene_break ] rex : you know , gigi kept saying that i do n't understand , that someday she 'd explain it to me . but how am i supposed to wrap my head around the fact that the woman i love stepped out on me while our son was fighting for his life ? what am i supposed to do ? brody : you 're supposed to trust the woman you love . rex : oh , give me a break . it is all i can do to not shove your face through that wall , you son - of - a - bitch . brody : well , there is another explanation . rex : then , dammit , explain it to me . brody : i ca n't , but she has her reasons , okay ? just trust her . rex : you can take your advice and shove it . there 's only one person i trust anymore , and that is stacy .

[ scene_break ] dillon : what is my mother doing at the airport ? sabrina : she 's catching a flight . dillon : she 's flying commercial ? since when ? sabrina : since she no longer has access to the elq jet . dillon : why is she leaving port charles ? sabrina : because of nikolas .

[ scene_break ] lulu : please talk to me . dante : how 's your grandma doing ? lulu : i have to be honest with you , dante . i was n't with my grandmother . dante : no kidding . no kidding ! you know , she called here on july the 4th . wanted to talk to you . i said you could n't come to the phone 'cause you were tending to rocco . i did n't think it was appropriate to tell your grandmother that you were too busy screwing dillon quartermaine . lulu : oh , my god . dante , that is not what -- dante : do n't lie to me ! do not lie to me . you threw away everything we had , and now you 're pissing on it by insulting me . lulu : no , you have to listen to me . dante : i have listened to you . i have listened to you over and over and over again . i listened to you when you told me dillon came here to meet rocco . that was a lie . i listened to you when you told me you were going to italy to take care of your sick grandmother . that was a lie . do n't stand there right now and tell me you 're not banging dillon when i know damn well that you are . [ scene_break ] dillon : my mother is n't one to let nikolas cassadine chase her out of town . sabrina : oh , no . tracy is n't running away . no , she 's got a plan . dillon : [ scoffs ] that 's not always a good thing . where is she going ? sabrina : los angeles . your niece , brook lynn , is on tour , and tracy wants to find out what nikolas is holding over her . dillon : i think i know where she 's going with this . nikolas blackmailed brook lynn , and blackmail is illegal . ergo , if my mom can prove nikolas is a blackmailer , she can force him out of elq . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] tracy : you 've got the ex - husband part right , but as far as favorite is concerned -- not so much . in a lifetime of bad relationships , you were the worst . paul : tracy , you wound me . tracy : if i were to use the word `` favorite `` to describe you , i would have to put `` least `` in front of it . paul : am i as bad as , say , lord larry ashton ? tracy : a weasel and a con - man , but ultimately harmless . paul : gino soleito ? anthony zacchara ? you 've married some real winners over the years . tracy : well , i guess it takes one to know one . paul : i will never apologize for who i am . but i do wish i was your favorite ex . tracy : keep wishing . paul : i 'm guessing that that honor would fall to luke spencer . tracy : [ chuckles ] well , luke spencer would give you a run for your money in the jackass department . in fact , i would be hard - pressed to figure out which one of you i despise more . [ scene_break ] alexis : nikolas , this is your aunt . again . your failure to return my phone calls leads me to believe that you have used questionable tactics in gaining control of elq . this concerns me for many reasons , not least of which you 're acting like a cassadine ! nikolas . the quartermaines are our friends . i 'm worried about you . call me . tj : ms. davis ? alexis : hey . tj . what are you doing at the hospital ? are you okay ? tj : oh , i 'm fine . i 'm just getting a physical , you know , pcu wants it updated every year . alexis : oh , yeah . i should know all about that because i 've gone over every page with molly with these admission applications . i think i 'm blocking it out . tj : why ? are n't you excited about molly going to college ? alexis : no . i 'm dreading it . [ scene_break ] nikolas : what exactly did patrick say ? elizabeth : hayden 's numbers are improving . he 's checking on her as we speak . nikolas : you think it 's possible she could wake up ? elizabeth : i do n't know . there 's no way to predict . some people can have brain damage and never recover , or they could be perfectly fine like nothing ever happened . nikolas : so what ? it 's a waiting game ? elizabeth : nikolas , it 's gon na be disastrous if she wakes up . aside from you and me and helena , hayden is the only other person who knows jake is really jason . [ scene_break ] jake : i imagine the elq stocks are not in there . sam : probably not . that would be too easy . you can take a look at those , though . jake : okay . is that your cousin 's idea of petty cash ? sam : yeah . pretty much . ooh . jake : nice gun . sam : mm . what 's this ? jake : what you got ? oh . sam : oh ! jake : family heirloom , huh ? sam : wow . yeah , it has to be . jake : [ chuckles ] sam : what ? jake : nothing . nothing . sam : what do you mean `` nothing `` ? look , the first rule of breaking and entering is you have to trust the person you 're working with , so whatever it is you were gon na say , you might as well just say it . jake : okay , i did n't realize there were rules to this game , but i just did n't think that you were into jewelry . that 's all . okay ? can we continue to -- sam : why not ? what , do you think this necklace is too girly for me ? jake : i did n't say that . sam : you did n't have to . just because i 'm a pi does n't mean i ca n't appreciate fine jewelry . jake : okay , you 're looking way too far into this . sam : you 're making assumptions when you barely even know me . jake : you know what ? i do n't know you ? i do n't know you ? okay . i know that you like riding motorcycles , and i know that you like drinking scotch on the rocks . i know that you 're good under pressure , just like you are right now . i know that you loved all your friends and your family . i know you do n't mind getting into a fight , and i know that your son is the most important thing in the world to you , and i know that you have n't had it easy . i also know that we 're in a hurry . and for the record , i think you 're very girly . sam : you do ? jake : [ clears throat ] yes , i do . in the toughest , most badass definition of the term . and if you ever got a chance to wear this necklace , you 'd be smokin ' hot , so ... sam : i would n't hold your breath , because i 'm sure nikolas would never let me borrow that necklace . and as far as he knows , i 've never seen the inside of his safe , so i would n't even know it exists . jake : yeah , you know , let 's get back to work here . sam : okay . what 's this ? jake : a driver 's license ? sam : hayden barnes . jake : what is my fake wife 's license doing in your cousin 's safe ? sam : i have no idea . jake : as far as i know , ric picked someone that no one from port charles would recognize to impersonate my wife , so how does your cousin fit into this , and how is he connected to hayden ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i was furious when you called hayden 's bluff and dared her to tell jason the truth . nikolas : i know . elizabeth : i knew i was gon na lose him . but then she got shot -- an accidental victim in a mob hit gone wrong . nikolas : things would be a whole lot different right now if shawn butler hit his target . elizabeth : i hate myself for feeling this way , but -- nikolas : you 're grateful for what happened . elizabeth : she was threatening to ruin everything for us . once she went into a coma , all of our problems were solved . and now if she wakes up ... nikolas : she 'll blow our secret wide open . [ scene_break ] jake : you ever think about the day that hayden was shot ? why did n't she just get the hell out of that garage ? sam : because she wanted to tell you who you are . jake : yeah , maybe . maybe she was lying . or maybe she was telling the truth . i do n't know . maybe she was trying to help me out , and she caught a bullet for her trouble . sam : that still is n't your fault . jake : it was my fault . i was the target . she was collateral damage , and now she 's lying in a hospital bed . you know , that was one of the risks of me having brain surgery -- that i might end up in a coma . and that scared the hell out of me , because i knew i did n't have anybody i could ask to kill me . sam : is that what you would have wanted ? jake : yeah . i 'm not afraid to die . sam : just -- just ... afraid to be helpless . jake : terrified , actually . valerie : chandler , can you do me a favor and call the launch captain ? tell him i 'll be ready in 15 ? jake : this one . sam : yeah , i like that one . valerie : sam ? sam : valerie ! hi . valerie : what are you guys doing here ?

'cause i lied , too . all right ? i told you i was going to work , but i did n't . i hung out in the hallway , and i watched you . i watched you . i followed you go to quartermaine house to see dillon . but you did n't go to the front door . no , you 're not that stupid . you 're a married woman . you know the servants do n't want -- you do n't want them seeing you , a married woman , going there having your little affair . lulu : that 's not what it was like . dante : really ? really ? you knock on the side door . the guy answers in the door in a freakin ' towel . did you even make it into his room , or did he just do you right there in the den ? [ scene_break ] dillon : i give my mother credit for trying , but her plan is a long shot . sabrina : well , at least tracy 's out there doing something instead of hiding out in this house after that disaster of an engagement party . dillon : as it turns out , there 's a lot more that happened . sabrina : yeah , and i get it . i -- when i lost my ex , patrick , i had to keep busy , you know ? i had to stay away from the things that reminded me of him , and tracy 's just doing the same thing . she needed a change of scenery after luke broke their engagement and broke her heart . [ scene_break ] paul : has luke been raiding your bank accounts ? pilfering your liquid assets ? tracy : no , that would be your mo . paul : oh , i ca n't be the only husband who 's had his hand in your pocket -- so to speak . tracy : luke has embezzled from me over the years . this time , all he did was break my heart . paul : well , it must have been bad if you 're willing to admit it . tracy : look , i have a plane to catch . i 'd like to say it 's been great . it has n't . paul : i know that you are obsessively early for any flight . you 're just want to avoid talking to me and end this conversation . tracy : what are you doing here besides irritating me beyond belief ? paul : what do you think ? i 'm here for dillon . i came to see my son . [ scene_break ] dillon : luke did n't dump my mother . sabrina : since when ? dillon : it 's incredibly convoluted , but it all boils down to something pretty simple -- luke never actually cheated . [ scene_break ] lulu : i did n't cheat on you with dillon . i swear . i love you , dante . dante : you love me ? you love me ? lulu : yes ! dante : you love our son , too ? were you thinking about us when you laying down with that guy in a hotel room ? lulu : you have no idea what happened in that hotel room . dante : like hell i do n't ! i went up there to vancouver to confront you ! i went into that room . i saw the food cart for two , the clothes all over the place , the unmade bed . your shirt -- your shirt that you 've taken off a million times -- the shirt that i 've taken off you a million times -- was it nice to have someone else take it off you for a change ? lulu : he did n't . he did n't . dante : stop lying to me ! stop lying to me ! i ca n't believe you would do this . i ca n't believe you would do this , of all people . i 'm not gon na do this to our kid . you know , we have a family , we have a son . you of all people , you know ? you take this away from him ? the little girl who cries about being left behind ? the forgotten child ? and you turn around and you -- you do the exact same thing to our boy ! lulu : you are so wrong about this right now ! dante : no , i 'm not gon na do this . i 'm not gon na do this to my son , okay ? i 'm not gon na pretend i do n't know you 're screwin ' around on me . i 'm done . i 'm done with this , lulu . our marriage is over .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : try not to jump to the worst - case scenario . elizabeth : i ca n't help it . the longer this goes on , the more i have to lose . jason and i are happy . my boys adore him . every day , it feels more and more like a family . nikolas : look . hey -- elizabeth : if hayden wakes up and she tells the truth -- nikolas : it could -- it could just be a glitch in her vital signs . it may not mean anything . elizabeth : not only am i lying to jason about who he is , i have taken him away from his wife and his child , and i helped you steal elq from michael . nikolas : i did n't steal it . elizabeth : oh , come on , nikolas . do n't pretend with me . we 're equally guilty , and we 're in this together . you took advantage of the quartermaines , and you stole that company . if hayden wakes up and tells jason who he is , he is going to rip that out from under you and give it right back to michael . nikolas : okay , look , getting worried and upset at this point is a waste of your time and energy . we just -- we just need to sit tight right now . elizabeth : [ sighs ] nikolas : i need to get my board meeting . if there 's any change in hayden 's condition ... elizabeth : i have a few minutes before my shift begins . i 'm gon na go to her room , see what i can find out . nikolas : okay .

[ scene_break ] sabrina : i wish there 'd been a way to rescue luke 's sons without tracy being hurt . dillon : me too . sabrina : but i could n't be happier that there 's a reasonable explanation . i did n't realize you were so invested . sabrina : oh , yeah . tracy and i became friends when i was ... nannying for aj , and your mother adores that little girl , so we 'd always end up talking . dillon : so you got an earful after the whole engagement - party debacle . [ chuckles ] sabrina : your mother was really badly hurt . and honestly , i do n't know how she 's gon na react to the news that luke 's reunion with laura was just an act . dillon : if i know my mother , she wo n't be pleased , but once the dust settles , hopefully she 'll see that luke really and truly does love her and never wanted to hurt her . sabrina : i hope so , too . dillon : i need to catch her before she takes off .

[ scene_break ] patrick : there 's been a spike in hayden 's vitals and an increase in brain activity . elizabeth : and they 've continued to improve ? patrick : her neuroelectrical output , her blood pressure , and her pulse have all gone back to normal levels , and we ordered another brain scan . elizabeth : so she 's not awake ? patrick : no . elizabeth : ah . [ sighs ] patrick : look , elizabeth , i know that hayden 's not your favorite person ... which is understandable , given what she did to you and jake . elizabeth : she was a victim of a senseless crime . i would never wish that upon anyone . but what matters right now is her possible recovery . do you think she 's gon na wake up ? patrick : i do n't know . we 're gon na keep a close eye on her . but with the good news that we got today , hopefully soon she will be .

[ scene_break ] sam : so , there is a connection between nikolas and hayden barnes ? valerie : well , i do n't really know if she fits into what 's going on with elq , but hayden was staying at wyndemere . jake : she was staying at -- when was she staying here ? valerie : uh , around the time of the nurses ' ball . initially , there was a mix- up , and they actually thought that hayden was rosalie . obviously , i figured out who she was at the ball when she -- jake : was outed as a fraud . yeah . valerie : right . um , then she showed up for breakfast here the very next morning . sam : so hayden was here the morning after she was exposed as a fraud . why ? valerie : nikolas told me and lulu that he knew her from back in the day . they had some sort of a fling in europe , and she came here looking for help . sam : okay , um , well , that 's , uh , very helpful . thank you . valerie : mm - hmm . sam : we probably should get going . jake : absolutely . thank you again , valerie . sam : yeah . thank you . jake : nice to meet you . valerie : sure . and should i let nikolas know that you stopped by ? sam : no , no , no . that 's not necessary . i 'm sure i 'll see him another time . thank you .

[ sniffles ] that you left me and your son to go off with the guy who got you pregnant in high school . i care that -- that our child and our marriage means so much less to you than being luke spencer 's daughter ! lulu : that is not -- that 's not true . dante : it is true , lulu . it was true when i met you . it was true when we got married . i thought that was all gon na change when we had rocco . i thought you would actually put him first . lulu : i do put him first . dante : no . no , you do n't . but you know what ? we 're just -- we 're just going in circles right now , and i 'm amazed that you ca n't see that you did anything wrong here . lulu : i do ! i do ! i know that i screwed up , dante . i - i can see how much it hurt you . but my brother 's life was at risk . dante : then why did n't you tell me about it ? why did n't you tell me about it ? do n't give me that crap about the kidnappers not wanting cops involved . i 'm your husband . you should have chosen to trust me . our choices have consequences . lulu : oh , stop . please stop . i - i know that you 're angry . okay . but i do n't want one of us to say something that we ca n't take back . dante : we are way , way past words , lulu . i 'm talking about actions that we ca n't take back . lulu : okay , well , we need to calm down , and we need to focus on what matters . okay , i am gon na go take a shower ... ... and go pick up our son . dante : no . no way . you 're not gon na get rocco and bring him in the middle of this . we have to deal with this right now and figure out what happens next . lulu : okay , well , i -- maybe you 're right . maybe i reflexively went to the place of being luke spencer 's daughter . and maybe i could let dillon help me , because that is what we always used to do ! we would chase after my dad , and we would tag along on the adventures , and sometimes my dad would thank me . and i 'd be so thrilled , because for that five minutes , i mattered . dante : you know , lulu , i know my heart should be breaking right now . but your father 's always got a reason and always got a crisis to come to you when he needs you the most , but right now , we 're in a crisis of our own . lulu : i know that it was wrong to lie to you , but i never thought that you would believe that i could be unfaithful . dante : what other conclusion was i supposed to come to ? lulu : you know me , and you know how i feel about you . i love you . i love you , and it killed me to lie to you . i - i deluded myself into thinking i could fix this on the back end , and i still believe that . you have every right to be angry with me , but come on , dante . one bad decision does n't cancel out everything that we have together and how much we love each other . dante : are you sure about that ? lulu : absolutely . we can come back from this . baby , you can trust me ... just like i trust you . dante : except you ca n't . [ scene_break ] alexis : i understand that sonny wants to help you . and i believe that his generosity is sincere . i 'm sure that he has said to you that under no circumstances does he want you to go into the business . tj : he has said that . alexis : you see , the problem -- sonny makes crime look glamorous while he 's warning you away from it . he wo n't ask you to compromise , and yet you find yourself compromising anyway . and the next thing you know , you 're in over your head . you 're doing all kinds of things that you never thought you could do ... because sonny , with all of his wonderful qualities -- his charm , his intelligence , his generosity -- he 's a criminal . he lies , he cheats , he steals to get what he wants . and this business -- this business that has all his power and gives him all of his power , it 's evil . tj : no offense , but , uh , julian 's a mobster , too . alexis : he quit . sonny wo n't quit . i ca n't tell you to move out . tj : kind of sounds like you are . alexis : i just want you to be careful . tj , you 're such a great guy . you have such a bright future . and with the best of intentions , sonny will ruin it . tj : wow . i guess i never realized how much you disliked him . alexis : mm . it 's just the opposite . i like him so much ... too much . and when you 're a cassadine , that 's very dangerous , because it 's easy for a cassadine to jettison principles and embrace the dark side .

[ scene_break ] jake : you ever think about the day that hayden was shot ? why did n't she just get the hell out of that garage ? sam : because she wanted to tell you who you are . jake : yeah , maybe . maybe she was lying . or maybe she was telling the truth . i do n't know . maybe she was trying to help me out , and she caught a bullet for her trouble . sam : that still is n't your fault . jake : it was my fault . i was the target . she was collateral damage , and now she 's lying in a hospital bed . you know , that was one of the risks of me having brain surgery -- that i might end up in a coma . and that scared the hell out of me , because i knew i did n't have anybody i could ask to kill me . sam : is that what you would have wanted ? jake : yeah . i 'm not afraid to die . sam : just -- just ... afraid to be helpless . jake : terrified , actually . valerie : chandler , can you do me a favor and call the launch captain ? tell him i 'll be ready in 15 ? jake : this one . sam : yeah , i like that one . valerie : sam ? sam : valerie ! hi . valerie : what are you guys doing here ?
