[ scene_break ] officer : you 've got some abrasions , ma'am . there 's a first - aid kit outside . kim : oh , she does n't need first aid ! she needs a lie detector ! they both do . officer : i 'm gon na have to call this in . be right back . cutter : sure . she ai n't going nowhere . kim : i ca n't believe you 're doing this to me . cutter : [ sighs ] you think i really wanted it to be like this ? kim : how could you team up with that bitch ? cutter : rama was coming after you with or without me . i had to make sure she did n't turn on me , too . kim : oh , and tell everyone it was really you ? cutter : i wish it did n't have to be this way . kim : it 's not just me i 'm worried about . what about stacy ? i mean , if i go away , well , who takes care of her ?

[ scene_break ] roxanne : no , no , no . that is not right . she can not marry brody . she would have told me ! rex : well , you 've been busy . tampering with possible murder weapons eats up a lot of time . roxanne : do n't you get smart with me when your sister is about to make the stupidest mistake of her life ! rex : why is it a mistake ? brody and natalie have a kid . they live together . roxanne : because she does n't love brody . she loves johnny mcbain , and she always will . brody : she 's not supposed to care that john does n't love her ? roxanne : johnny does love her ! rex : you do n't know that . roxanne : hell yes ! i do know that -- he just told me that the other night . [ scene_break ] john : relax , man . ballistics done . we 'll have an answer in a minute . brody : you should never have asked the question . john : hey , listen , i 'm running down every lead . i have to , all right ? 'cause if i do n't , some sharpie defense attorney finds out we did n't , we can kiss a conviction goodbye . brody : right . you 're just being thorough . john : i 'm doing you a favor , brody . brody : how do you figure that ? john : better answering those questions here and now than on the stand or in front of internal affairs . brody : you know , vimal patel has done time at statesville , and now he says one thing about a cop . john : i know . i know . but you argued with the man . you argued with him on the day that victor died , and you still have n't told me why . brody : liam 's not my son . [ crying ] he 's john 's . vimal was n't accusing me of killing victor lord , if that 's what you 're thinking . john : okay . so what were you two shouting about ?

[ scene_break ] brody : okay , i admit i lost it , but it had nothing to do with victor lord . so let 's ... you already done ? [ door opens ] téa : thank you . bo : are you okay ? téa : i will be ... once the murder charge is dropped ... because whoever victor was talking to that night , it was n't todd . natalie : sorry , john . sorry to disappoint you , but brody 's gun was not used to kill victor lord . brody 's innocent . [ scene_break ] irene : and that 's how you ended up at the door with the keys in one hand and a gun in the other . you had to get back what was yours . todd : hello ? victor : so , uh ... oh , my god . what the hell are you doing here ? todd : you take my life , victor ? i take yours . oh , my god .

[ scene_break ] rex : john told you he still loves natalie . he said those words ? roxanne : `` l - u - v `` -- love , baby . he spilled his guts at rodi 's the other night . rex : at rodi 's ? roxanne : yes , at rodi 's ! what about it ? rex : no , no , no . natalie told me about that conversation . john specifically said he does not still love natalie . roxanne : yeah , well , he did n't admit it at first , but then when i leaned on him . excuse me , but how did she even know about that ? did she tell you that she was there ? rex : do n't tell her i said anything . roxanne : i 'm gon na tell your sister she 's a moron . rex : what are you talking about ? ! roxanne : she did n't hear the best part , okay ? she heard half the part . your dim - witted sister did n't even get to the best part . john loves natalie . rex : and n - natalie has no idea ? roxanne : yeah . that 's why she ca n't marry brody . rex : whoa ! where are you going ? roxanne : natty needs to hear the truth , and i 'm gon na be the one to tell her . rex : no , no . that 's the last thing you 're gon na do . [ scene_break ] natalie : so , why do you think a cop killed victor ? john : someone made a statement , someone who worked for victor . natalie : not that secretary ? john : what secretary ? natalie , what secretary ? natalie : uh ... you know what ? uh , sorry . i - i guess i - i just got a little confused . you said somebody who worked for victor , and i - i misunderstood . john : i was talking about vimal patel . who were you talking about ? natalie : not important . john : you know , why do n't you let me be the judge of that ? natalie : uh ... look , john , this is kind of -- this is pointless . brody : just tell him . [ scene_break ] téa : without further evidence , this will never make it past a grand jury . bo : well , even if we make the murder charge go away , there 's still the matter of todd 's escape . téa : todd is willing to face that as long as you drop the murder charge . bo : i 'll talk to nora . téa : thank you , commissioner . and i want you to know , this is not about todd . i need to find who murdered my husband . bo : i just hope that you 're not putting your faith in the wrong person . [ scene_break ] todd : there 's no evidence . there 's nothing that can put me in that house . irene : oh , you were very careful , were n't you ? todd : how could i kill my own brother and then not know it until now ? irene : well , you talked about it often enough . all those nights in neighboring cells , i encouraged you to take care of -- todd : it was you . you forced me to do it . irene : you did n't do anything you did n't want to do . [ scene_break ] natalie : uh , victor 's secretary stopped by and offered a statement . john : when was this ? natalie : a couple of weeks ago . john : a couple weeks ago ? i do n't remember seeing anything in the files . natalie : i did n't think it was worth recording . john : excuse me ? natalie : her statement was n't relevant to this murder . john : oh , you made that determination . what did she say ? natalie : she said that she overheard a conversation in victor 's office between victor and brody . john : between victor and brody . what were they saying ? natalie : i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't really remember . brody : i threatened him . natalie : brody , you do n't have to say anything . brody : it 's okay . i told him if he did anything to hurt me or my family , i 'd kill him . [ scene_break ] todd : i did n't kill my brother . you know , you ... you -- you kill your brother , that 's something you remember , right ? how could i block something like that out ? irene : force of habit . eight years in captivity taught you to bury the parts of yourself that you did n't like . but i know the real you . todd : no , you do n't . you do n't know me . you do n't know me . you do n't know anything about me . irene : i know you are the son of victor lord . do n't you forget it ... because nobody else will . [ scene_break ] nate : so , what do you say ? huh ? give me another shot . please ? danielle : i ca n't be your girlfriend . not without ... going on a date first . l - listen to me . i 'm willing to take this slow ... and see what happens , okay ? nate : dani , that 's ... slow . danielle : yeah . nate : slow 's good . danielle : right . nate : [ chuckles ] so , uh ... until next time ? danielle : next time . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] cutter : [ sighs ] all right ... i 'll check on her , just this once . [ monitor beeping ] doctor : lie still , please . lie still . cutter : wait . w - what happened ? she woke up ? nurse : yes , but she 's still a little confused . doctor : do you know who the president is ? how about your name ? can you tell me your name ? [ scene_break ] roxanne : let go of me . your sister needs to know that john loves her . rex : do n't you think he should be the one to say that ? roxanne : he ca n't ! rex : why the hell not ? roxanne : he ca n't ! it 's his pride ! rex : oh , well ... then i think she 's better off without him . she 's got a good guy , rox . he makes her happy . they 're starting a family together . roxanne : brody is not the one . rex : he could be ... if she gives him half a chance , and that 's what she wants to do . roxanne : how do you know ? rex : she told me . she 's moving on , rox . just like me . i 'm letting go of gigi -- she 's letting go of john . now , let her do this , rox , okay ? let her be happy . [ scene_break ] john : well , i can see how you 'd find that irrelevant . you know , brody , you do n't usually threaten to kill a man without provocation . so what did victor do ? how 'd he threaten to hurt your family ? [ scene_break ] téa : i have great news . todd ? todd ! todd ?
while todd is alone in the cabin , he is once again `` visited `` by irene who tells him that he must remembering going to victor 's home in the rain , finding jack 's keys which were lying on the ground , letting himself in and murdering victor . we see that very event occurring and todd being devastated to remember for the first time . he then realizes or wants to believe that it 's only irene haunting him and brainwashing him to believe that and it did not happen . but do we really know ? it appears that neither rex nor shane are `` viable `` suspects . but brody looks somewhat suspicious when shaun and vimal reminds john that the murder weapon is the same as what brody uses and that brody was overheard making a death threat to victor . rex tells roxy that he supports natalie moving on with brody and getting over john . but she adamantly tells him that john is the man for his sister . in kentucky , cutter and rama `` help `` each other by turning kim in for drugging and killing the customer at the spotted pony . meanwhile , the young woman known as stacy who looks just like gigi awakens . yet we do not yet get to know who she really is or what she remembers .
<s>[INST] [ monitor beeping ] rex : i mean , i still ca n't believe that 's what it took for me to wake up -- seeing my son with a gun in his hand . i 'm just glad gigi did n't have to see it . natalie : i 'm sorry , rex . rex : no . i 'm the one who 's sorry . i mean , i filled myself up with so much grief , i left my son to fend for himself , and he could n't and spiraled out of control . it 's like the high school roof all over again . natalie : so from now on , you 're gon na do things differently . rex : well , from now on , shane is my priority -- no excuses . i think that 's what gigi was telling me when she said , `` do n't give up `` -- do n't give up on our son . [ scene_break ] [ monitor beeping ] stacy : [ gasps ] rex . [ scene_break ] kim : what are you doing here ? rama : oh , i 'm here to settle an old score . kim : we have n't seen each other in like a century . what old score could we settle ? rama : i 'm talking about my money , the money you stole from me . kim : oh , right . the -- you mean the -- the cash i borrowed . well , i was totally gon na pay you back . i - i -- rama : well , you had a century to pay me back , and you have n't done it . no ! you used it to buy new everything . kim : [ clears throat ] rama : you thought you were safe 'cause i would n't recognize you . well , guess what . you 're not safe , aubrey . kim : kim . rama : whatever the hell you 're calling yourself now . you 're not safe from me , 'cause i 'm here to collect , with interest . [ scene_break ] téa : todd is willing to turn himself in , but we 're gon na need something in return . bo : [ laughing ] oh . well , that 's pushing it , téa . i mean , even for you . téa : i 'm simply giving my client the best representation i can . bo : but you 're dictating terms , and your client 's negotiating position -- it 's pretty much nonexistent . téa : you have n't heard our request . i think it 's pretty reasonable , given the circumstances surrounding the investigation . bo : all right . let 's hear it . téa : the murder charge . bo : victor 's ? téa : todd will come in once it 's dropped . [ scene_break ] shaun : l.t . just the man i 'm looking for . john : i 'm kind of busy right now , big man . shaun : the victor lord murder ? john : could be . shaun : i got some information . john : what kind of information ? shaun : the kind you should hear before anybody else does . [ scene_break ] todd : so , who killed you , brother of mine ? we 're twins , right ? are n't we supposed to have some kind of a spooky connection ? [ wood creaks ] todd : blair ? téa ? irene : guess again . todd : no . irene : do n't be so negative , son . i know you 've missed me . [ scene_break ] téa : the murder charge does n't hold anymore , commissioner . bo : but that 's not your call , téa . téa : the lion 's share of evidence against todd is jack 's `` eyewitness `` account , which has now been shot full of holes by shane morasco . bo : yeah , but just because jack did n't see anything , that does n't mean that todd did n't shoot victor . he had a motive . and we have a recording on shaun evans ' phone . and it was made just before victor was shot , and it might be the proof that todd was the one that killed him . so i think you 're being a little bit premature , téa . what ? téa : that phone has victor 's voice on it ? bo : yeah . téa : i need to hear it . [ scene_break ] john : you 're not bringing me another voicemail , are you ? shaun : why ? john : well , for the record , jack manning did n't overhear the murder . he , uh , he knew about the voicemail because , uh , he overheard you and starr talking . he then pretended to have firsthand knowledge of the crime . shaun : guess i should n't be surprised . damn , i hate the fact that kid played me out like that . john : yeah , i just hate that kid , but , hey , look , maybe you 'll make up for it , right ? you know , with the information you 're gon na tell me . have a seat . shaun : well , i ca n't guarantee it 's gon na lead anywhere . i do n't know the guy that well . john : what guy ? shaun : i ran into vimal patel at capricorn last night . i got a feeling he might know something . john : oh , yeah ? like what ? shaun : well , we started talking about the murder . then he said he thought a cop might have done it . john : an lpd cop ? shaun : he was a little freaked out , man . john : did he tell you why he thought the shooter was a cop ? shaun : whoever did victor used a 9-millimeter , right ? standard issue at the lpd . but i told him to forget it . there 's no way one of your boys could be behind something like this . [ scene_break ] [ monitor beeping ] stacy : rex ... do n't ... give up . [ scene_break ] kim : rama . sweetie . rama : do n't `` sweetie `` me , you bitch ! kim : whoa ! you never used to talk that way when we were in school together . rama : well , i was young and naive . i 'm not naive anymore . you ca n't con me . kim : oh , trust me . i 'm too tired to con anybody . this job -- killer . [ scoffs ] rama : really , kim ? shaking your booty ? it 's like digging coal , huh ? kim : it 's hard work ! and the pay sucks . but i have been setting a little aside each week so that i would be able to pay you back . rama : stop it ! you had no intention of ever paying me back ! kim : of course , i did ! and then the most amazing thing happened -- financially . something 's about to come through for me , and i will definitely be able to -- hey ! there he is . just ask my brother . he 'll tell you all about it . cutter : tell her all about what ? kim : you know , that i 'm gon na be a very rich woman . so i can pay rama back the loan she gave me . cutter : i -- sorry . i do n't know anything about that . i 'm ... just here to do my civic duty ! kim : your what ? why are you talking like that ? cutter : officers ! she 's , uh , she 's in here ! kim : what the hell is this ? rama : do n't look now , but i think you 're busted . kim : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] danielle : why 'd you turn it off ? nate : maybe we should watch it some other time . danielle : why ? nate : i think i should have picked a comedy . i mean , you 're just -- when we saw `` the manchurian candidate , `` you were just so into the remake , and -- danielle : yeah . and y -- and you wanted me to see the original . nate : someday . but , um , maybe now 's not the right time . danielle : yeah . it 's just a little close to home , you know ? uh , the guy -- he 's -- he 's trying so hard to get his life together , but how can he when his psycho mother is controlling everything ? you know , he 's like her puppet . [ scene_break ] todd : this is not happening . irene : why ? because you shot me ? todd : i shot you . i shot you dead . irene : and yet ... here i am . todd : no . you 're in my head . get out of my head , irene . irene : sorry . as long as you draw breath , so do i . todd : no , you do n't . there are people in this world who care about me , and they 're helping me . and you 're not a part of that . irene : what can they do that i ca n't ? todd : starr helped me get out of jail . blair dug a bullet out of me . and téa 's gon na make sure that i do n't go to jail for a murder that i did n't commit . irene : oh . is she , now ? todd : yes , she is . so all your work to frame me for victor 's murder was a waste of time . the cops ' case is falling apart as we speak . i 'm gon na walk . irene : [ chuckles ] you may not go to prison , but you wo n't walk away . a guilty man never escapes . not really . [ scene_break ] kim : hi . wait , these -- these are n't real cops , are they ? officer : oh , we 're definitely real ... ma'am . cutter : guys . guys , she 's gon na have some questions . you guys mind if -- if -- if you just wait a second before you take her away ? kim : take me where ? officer : no problem . cutter : thanks . here . why do n't you guys just make yourselves comfortable over here ? you need a drink or anything , i 'm a partial investor . kim : cutter , this is n't funny . what is going on ? rama : you 're busted , kim . kim : for what ? is this about the handicapped sticker on my car ? because that is totally legit . i have sciatica from the pole ! my doctor gave me a note and every -- cutter : it 's not about the sticker . look , you 've been on the run for a long time from the truth . we all have . but me and rama -- we could n't run no more . all right ? so we went to the police , and we told them the whole story . rama : we showed them the evidence . kim : what story ? what evidence ? what are you talking about ? cutter : the proof that you 're the killer . rama : i 've been holding onto this for a very long time .

maxie : it 's a long story , and i will fill you in on that later . the point is , her job offer is in ... spinelli : portland , oregon . ellie does n't want to leave me behind , nor do i want to be left . and adding the baby , as well . it 's not fair to maxie to take our daughter so far away . sam : no , spinelli , maxie would -- she would freak . robin : you must be freaking out . spinelli ca n't take the baby to portland . i mean , i 'm astounded he would even consider doing that . maxie : actually , i 'm the one who told him -- robin : i hope you told him absolutely no way . spinelli : we were certain that maxie would oppose the idea . sam : [ sighs ] spinelli : but , in point of fact ... maxie : i told him to go . and to take the baby with him . spinelli : so , to say ellie and i were shocked ... but it 's true . maxie demanded -- practically begged us to leave town with this little one . carly : can you visit her every once in awhile ? lulu : she 's not my baby , so no . carly : [ sighs ] i am so sorry , lulu . that custody hearing must have been brutal . lulu : it was -- it was beyond . maxie and i dredged up every hateful , stupid thing we 've ever done . in the end , i lost the baby . and so did maxie . carly : so did maxie ? lulu : the judge said she was unfit . carly : well , so who 's raising the baby ? lulu : spinelli . he just came over and he picked her up and that was it . we went from being a family to ... being all alone . sonny : i know things have n't been easy for you and lulu since connie left . dante : well , i knew it was gon na be a struggle . i just thought we 'd be doing it together . sonny : and you will . dante : i 'm not so sure , sonny . i mean , lulu does n't even want to look at me , let alone talk to me . i mean , what if when we lost our baby , we lost our marriage , too ? carly : spinelli is amazing , and he 's great , and i 'm sure he will do the best he can to take care of that little girl , but he did n't even know that she was his daughter until after she was born . so , just because biology , he 's the only one worthy of custody ? lulu : it was n't just biology . i mean , it played a part in it , but ... the real reason that we lost her is because of dante . dante : lulu 's slipping away , and i ca n't stop her . sonny : sure you can . dante : how ? sonny : if she pushes you away , do n't let her . be there . dante : i 'm not gon na force her to talk to me . sonny : just wear her down until she does . dante : wear her down ? she 's my wife . we 're -- we 're -- we 're a team . at least , we were a team until ... sonny : until what ? dante : [ sighs ] lulu 's convinced i 'm the reason we lost custody . maxie : [ sighs ] i know myself , and i will never stop trying to see my baby . and spinelli is no match for me . i will get him to cave in no time . robin : but if spinelli takes your baby to portland , you might not have that opportunity . you need to think about this . maxie : i have . robin : well , think some more . if spinelli and ellie -- maxie : i know . right ? they 're quirky and smart and their names rhyme . it 's like the nerd gods fated them to be together . robin : if they take you up on your offer and they move across the country , you need to be prepared to live with that . are you ? spinelli : maxie confessed that she 's constantly tempted to defy the judge 's order . sam : no , i get it . if someone tried to take danny from me again , i would move heaven and earth to make sure that did not happen . spinelli : she already showed up here once , and all she wanted to do was -- was to see the baby , to hold her . [ sighs ] took everything in me to deny her access . sam : ooh . i can imagine . spinelli : so , you can see how maxie 's idea makes sense , right ? avoid temptation altogether by putting a continent between her and the baby . sam : i see , but what are you gon na do ? spinelli : i do n't know . ellie and i were up all night trying to figure it out . [ sighs ] you know , sometimes i hate being an adult . sam : [ chuckles ] spinelli : i just wish someone would tell me what to do . sam : well , spinelli , i know it 's not my place , but if it were up to me , i would tell you not to go . kevin : you killed your mother . franco : yeah . kevin : i assume you mean heather webber . franco : yeah , you heard about that , huh ? kevin : i know she made a spectacle at your art show a few weeks ago . must have been quite a shock . franco : ah , come on . nothing major . just , you know ... anything and everything that i ever thought about my life was proven to be a lie . kevin : you also learned the identity of your father , scott baldwin . franco : oh , yeah . that guy . why ? you know him ? kevin : he 's a close friend of my wife 's . and her ex - husband , as a matter of fact . franco : lucy coe ? kevin : you 've met ? franco : briefly . really ? lucy coe was married to my father ? kevin : yes . she was . franco : ooh . what did she ever see in that cold fish of a jerk ? scott : whoa , whoa , whoa . wait a minute , lucy . lucy : [ sighs ] scott : you want to get back with kevin ? lucy : absolutely . scott : but you were so -- scratch that ! you were furious with him ! lucy : yeah , i was . people make mistakes , though . look at us ! we 've made a million of them . and , you know what ? that 's the easy part . you know what the hard part is ? is owning up to them , and that 's what doc just did . he said he made a mistake by putting his patients before me . he is ready to change his life . scott : and you believe him ? lucy : yeah . more than that -- i love him , and he loves me . this -- this is incredible . scott : wait a minute , lucy . what -- what about me ? maxie : that judge was furious with me . and for argument sake , let 's just say that it does go my way . six months for me is like forever . robin : [ chuckles ] six minutes for you is like forever . maxie : at the cemetery , you said that i 'm strong , but i 'm not . robin : maxie . sending your daughter away so that spinelli wo n't lose her is so brave . you 're incredibly strong . maxie : well , it helped having you home . i know that . robin : [ chuckles ] maxie : and you do n't have to worry about me . we promised each other that we would survive , and that 's exactly what i 'm gon na do . rob : okay . maxie : now , enough about me . i need to know what 's going on with you and patrick . robin : oh . i did something really stupid . kevin : that cold fish of a jerk has been in my life for some time now . franco : on purpose ? kevin : mainly through lucy . franco : yeah ? all right . okay . so , then , you do n't like the guy , either , then , do you ? kevin : we 're not discussing my relationship with lucy . no , we 're taking it back to heather . franco : i mean , we kind of are . kevin : what happened ? franco : okay . um ... heather came to my hotel room to threaten carly jacks , my girlfriend . see , heather does n't -- did n't want me to be with carly . kevin : why not ? franco : i do n't know . she was never clear about that . but she was clear about all the rest , believe me . i mean , we 're talking phone calls and dead roses and death threats , and i warned her . i warned heather . i said , `` you [ sighs ] make a move on carly , and i will kill you . `` but she just would n't listen . kevin : so , heather attacked carly . franco : no , no . first , she got me out of my hotel room so that she could threaten -- kill c -- i figured out something was wrong , and , so , i rushed back into the room and there was heather standing there , with a knife ! kevin : was carly hurt ? franco : no , carly was in the shower , thankfully . carly does n't even know what happened . kevin : so , you got back to your room , and there 's heather with a knife . franco : yes , about to kill carly . kevin : what happened then ? franco : we argued , and i -- i got the knife away from her , and i killed her . i stabbed her . i had to stop her . she was n't gon na stop until she killed carly . i had to kill heather , to save carly . carly : the judge gave custody to spinelli because of dante ? dante : you were there . you saw how ugly that got . first maxie gets raked through the coals , then lulu . i could n't stand to see diane tear into her like that . carly : they accused you of killing your child ? you were a child yourself ! and the abortion was legal . lulu : it did n't end there . carly : okay , is this where dante comes in ? lulu : [ sighs ] during one of my many face - offs with maxie since this all started , i told her that i tried to get dante to leave the country . carly : with you and the baby . lulu : obviously , we did n't do it . it was one of those , like , heat of the moment things , and maxie told her lawyer . carly : and diane asked you about it under oath . lulu : i was terrified that i would look unfit . dante : so , lulu lied . she swore she never said that to maxie , that maxie was making it up . i do n't even know why i 'm saying this to you . you were there . sonny : sometimes you got to go over things just to make sense of it all . dante : yeah , well , it does n't make any sense to lulu . she 's never gon na understand why i did what i did . lulu : dante was on the stand , and he did everything that he could to dodge the question , but the more he drew it out , the more i knew that he was n't gon na back me , and he did n't back me . lulu : he told the judge that i lied . carly : [ sighs ] lulu : and then the judge said that our petition was denied . and i argued with him . i knew that i should n't , but i could n't help myself , and that 's when the judge said that i hurt the case by perjuring myself . carly : that must have been really awful for you . lulu : if dante had just backed me up , we would n't have lost our little girl . carly : you think this is dante 's fault . lulu : is n't it ? scott : what we did last night -- that does n't mean anything to you ? lucy : of course it does . it [ chuckles ] was beautiful , and i will never , ever forget last night . and we are always gon na be connected , i mean , though our daughter , and i -- i hope through our friendship . because , pal , that 's all we can ever be , is just friends . so , what do you say ? can we just please stay friends ? please ? kevin : well , it sounds like you acted to protected carly . franco : i did , yes . kevin : an uninvited woman was in your room ... with a weapon . you had no choice . franco : [ sighs ] thank you . kevin : i assume the police agree ? franco : uh , well , i did n't call the police . kevin : why not ? franco : um , `` hello , mr. policeman , nice to meet you . i 'm franco . `` if i tell them that i just stabbed my mother , then , you know , hasta la vista to the brain tumor defense . they 're not even gon na ask me why i did it . they 're just gon na throw me in a jail cell for the rest of my life . kevin : so , heather 's dead and nobody knows . franco : that is correct . kevin : what did you do with the body ? franco : i buried it . kevin : where ? franco : in a cemetery . kevin : you -- you -- you transported her body to a cemetery , and you dug a grave ? franco : no , okay , that 's the weird part . when i got there , there was already a freshly dug grave for me . dante : you know , i guess i should have backed lulu up , no matter what the cost , right ? that 's what you would have done . sonny : i 'm not you . i 'm not a cop . dante : well , i honestly do n't think it would have made any difference . sonny : but lulu does . dante : that 's not the only reason she 's upset . sonny : what do you mean ? dante : well , she -- she wanted to know why i could lie for you , but i could n't lie for her . sonny : that was a different situation . dante : yeah . you know , i perjured myself because the thought of telling the truth would cause so much pain to the people that i love . you know , that 's something i got to carry around with me every day for the rest of my life . and maybe it makes me a hypocrite , but i did n't want to see lulu have to carry around a lie like that . sonny : especially if it was n't gon na do any good . look , i did n't say anything at the time , but i always thought this custody was a long shot . dante : oh , yeah , i know . we -- we lost custody way before we ever set foot in that courtroom , but lulu ca n't accept that . sonny : but in time she will . that 's what i 'm trying to tell you . dante : i do n't know . you have n't , uh ... you have n't seen her , sonny . she 's in agony . sonny : she 's not the only one . dante : i want to help her , but i , you know -- she would n't let me go near her . [ chuckles ] i mean , what does she think ? i wanted us to lose our daughter ? lulu : you should be laughing in my face right now . carly : why would i do that ? lulu : you know why . [ sighs ] i was -- i was so smug , i was so self - righteous that day when dante barged into sonny 's trial and announced that michael killed claudia . sonny was standing trial for a murder he did n't commit , and you were perjuring yourself to save your son , and there i was , preaching about dante 's reasonability as a cop , and how it was the right thing to do to tell the truth , like i had some idea what it would be like to fight for your child . but i know now . carly : you know what ? losing a child -- there 's nothing worse . i get that you want to lash out . i do . [ chuckles ] but you and dante -- you guys need each other right now . he 's suffering , too . lulu : i just miss her so much . i just miss holding her , loving her . i feel like a piece of my heart has disappeared . [ crying ] what am i supposed to do without her ? carly : oh , i 'm so sorry . robin : so , i asked sabrina to let patrick go , because it would be easier for him if he did n't have to break her heart . maxie : easier for him to come back to you , where he belongs . what 's so stupid about that ? robin : well , for starters , she said no . that it 's patrick 's decision , not hers . maxie : that does n't mean it was a bad idea . robin : but who am i to think that i 'm more important than sabrina ? maxie : um , you 're patrick 's wife and the mother of his child . robin : what if that 's not enough anymore ? maxie : what if what 's not enough ? robin : maxie , it 's been two years . i mean , he could choose sabrina . maxie : he wo n't . robin : how can you be so sure about that ? maxie : i just am . and once patrick realizes that it 's you , that it 's always been you , you will know he chose you because he really loves you , not because sabrina made things easier on him and bowed out gracefully . robin : [ sighs ] i really hope you 're right . maxie : oh , please . i 'm always right . fine . this time i 'm right . i know it . spinelli : port charles has truly become my home . thanks to you and jason . connie : [ whines ] sam : here you go , baby . spinelli : you two were the first to make me feel like i actually belonged . and i have family here , thanks to you . sam : thanks to me ? come on , spinelli . you have family here because you are a loveable guy . spinelli : how could i even consider leaving that ? sam : for ellie . she is perfect for you . spinelli : well , you would know , after being witness to my many crushes . sam : oh , come on . they were n't all crushes . spinelli : i feel ready to give my entire heart and soul to another person , or , uh ... [ chuckling ] two people , as it were . [ sighs ] i just wish i knew where to do it . sam : how about this ? can you see yourself in portland , raising a family there ? spinelli : yeah , i can . and it 's a beautiful sight . but can i really leave my family here in port charles , with so many people that i love ? with you ? dante : i love connie , too . she was everything i ever wanted . this tiny , little , pink bundle . [ chuckles ] i wake up at night , thinking she 's crying , and i do n't know if she needs a diaper or if she needs to be fed , or something like that . she 's not even there . she 's never gon na be there . i 've never -- [ sighs ] oh , man . i 've never hated silence so much in my life as i do right now . i 'd like to just hear her cry . you know what i mean ? sonny : yeah . dante : oh , man ! [ voice breaking ] there 's this , like , emptiness right here . [ sniffles ] i ca n't feel it , you know ? it just kind of ... [ sniffles ] it just kind of hangs there . and , uh ... i 'm dealing with this all on my own because lulu does n't want to talk to me , and she does n't want to grieve with me . sonny : listen ... i know this is n't exactly the same thing , but i kind of know where you 're coming from a little bit 'cause -- what it feels like to -- to -- to have nobody . but i want you to know you got me . you always got me . sonny : no . dante : [ sighs ] sonny : hey . dante : guess i needed to get it out . sonny : that 's good . that 's good . you got it out . now , what are you gon na do about it ? sonny : you guys ca n't wallow in what 's going on here . i did that when connie died , and look where it got me . dante : i agree with you , but i still do n't know what the hell i 'm supposed to do . sonny : you got to take action . you got to jump - start your marriage . dante : [ chuckles ] okay . all right , i 'm open to any ideas , suggestions . sonny : you 'll figure it out . i have faith in you . dante : i 'm glad someone does . sonny : hey , listen to me . you 're my son . you 're strong . you can do this . and lulu can , too . carly : i would n't wish this pain on you ever . you know ? i do know you 're strong enough to survive this , and it will get easier , especially if you let somebody help you . lulu : by `` somebody , `` you mean dante . carly : you said it . i did n't . lulu : [ sighs ] why were you asking for help with franco , of all people ? you hate that guy . carly : oh . um ... things have changed between franco and me . lulu : are you seeing him ? carly : he 's hit rock bottom , and he 's looking for a job , and i just thought if you needed to hire a bartender at the haunted star , that you could hire him . lulu : okay , so , just so we 're clear , you are asking me to hire the man who strapped me to a bomb and tried to blow me up . franco : hey , doc , look . i know that you said that everything that happens here is just between us , but now that i told you -- kevin : i 'm still bound by doctor / patient confidentiality . franco : best rule in medicine . kevin : the only way i could divulge anything is if i believed you were a danger to yourself or to someone else . franco : well , that 's the thing , right ? i - i do n't know . i do n't know if i 'm still dangerous . kevin : do you feel any differently than you did before the tumor was removed ? franco : yeah . trust me , i feel different about everything . and , no , you know , i did n't have those -- those urges , right ? but then , you know , i stabbed my mother , so there 's that . i ca n't tell , you know ? you know , maybe taking the tumor out did n't have anything to do with anything . maybe i 'm just a psycho . kevin : is that how you see yourself , as a psycho ? franco : well , look who my mother is . kevin : your father 's not psychotic . franco : okay , maybe , but he 's not exactly the poster boy for compassion , either . scott : i do n't want to be friends . i want more than that . lucy : [ sighs ] scott : but , if i 'm gon na keep you in my life , what choice do i have ? lucy : [ sighs ] really ? scott : well , i could never say no to you . lucy : [ sighs ] thank you , thank you , thank you . i do n't know what i would do without you in my life . [ chuckles , sniffles ] scott : well , do n't tell kevin we slept together . not only would he not let us be friends , but he would n't let us be in the same room together . lucy : [ sniffles ] you think ? scott : yeah . every time we were alone , he would think that you were cheating on him . lucy : right . yeah . since you put it like that . scott : trust me , lucy . if you tell kevin the truth , it 'll hurt us all . franco : come on , doc . give it to me straight . really , i - i - i can take it , man . just -- just -- just -- i need to know , all right ? i really -- i really need to know who i am right now . kevin : my first impression ... is that killing heather was an isolated incident . as to the rest of it , who you are now , that 's a larger issue -- one to be explored in future sessions . franco : in future sessions ? so , you 'll take me on as a client ? kevin : yes . franco : thank you . thank you . i mean that . thank you . 'cause i really need to sort this out . if i do n't sort this out , i 'm gon na lose carly . she 's the best thing that ever happened to me . lulu : i 'm sorry , carly . i ca n't . carly : okay . franco was n't responsible for the things he did . his brain tumor was . lulu : you bought that ? that his brain tumor made him do it ? carly : he 's not the same man he used to be , okay ? can you just think about it ? will you at least do that , please ? lulu : yeah , fine . carly : and will you not mention it to franco that i was here ? lulu : you definitely do not have to worry about that . carly : thank you . [ sighs ] about the baby -- [ sighs ] give it time . it will get better , okay ? lulu : [ sniffles ] carly : it will . i promise . do n't push dante away . listen to me . do n't push him away . he 's gon na need you , and you 're gon na need him . do n't forget that . [ door closes ] lulu : [ sniffles ] robin : your little girl is so precious , and she looks exactly like -- maxie : georgie . robin : yes ! it 's like looking at georgie 's baby picture . maxie : i know . [ knock on door ] maxie : um , i 'm gon na go get a tissue . will you -- will you get that ? robin : sure . [ gasps ] hi ! spinelli : robin ! w -- i -- i - i -- i heard -- i heard you were alive , but to actually see your countenance , your -- robin : just shut up and give me a hug ! spinelli : okay ! oh , my gosh ! robin : hi . spinelli : it 's really you . robin : [ laughs ] it 's really me . spinelli : welcome home . robin : thank you . spinelli : oh , my gosh . it is truly , utterly amazing to see you . robin : back at you , spinelli . spinelli : oh . [ chuckles ] robin : congratulations . she is so beautiful . spinelli : yes . yes , she is . robin : you 're gon na make a terrific dad . spinelli : well , coming from you , that 's high praise . robin : and i heard you have a girlfriend . spinelli : mm - hmm . i see you 've been caught up . [ both laugh ] robin : yeah . i guess it 's serious ? you potentially might be moving out of town together ? maxie : about that . have you decided what you 're gon na do ? spinelli : i have . [ elevator bell dings ] franco : [ gasps ] carly : it 's just me . that was some nightmare you had this morning . franco : no , no . i 'm fine . i 'm better than fine now that you 're here . hi . carly : hi . so ? how 'd the job search go ? better today ? franco : yeah . carly : yeah ? franco : i talked to someone who gave me some hope . [ door opens ] lucy : doc ? kevin : come in . lucy : um ... i heard you were looking for me . kevin : so you saw scott . lucy : [ sighs ] scott : [ sighs ] lucy : yes , i saw scott . briefly . just now . and , um , he told me everything you said . kevin : i did n't think i could trust him . oh , lucy , i am so sorry . lucy : [ crying ] me too . me too . kevin : i swear to you , i am committed to this , to you , to our marriage . i want to fix our marriage . lucy : i - i - i do , too . kevin : you do ? lucy : with all my heart . [ chuckles ] [ sighs ] kevin : i swear ... i am never gon na let anyone or anything come between us ever again . lucy : i wo n't , either . maxie : not to make this all about me , but -- spinelli : you would never . maxie : i really do think it 's best if you go . spinelli : you truly mean that ? maxie : i do . spinelli : well , in that case , ellie will accept the job in portland ... and the baby and i will move with her . dante : hey . i , uh , i have something to say . lulu : okay . dante : i know you blame me for losing connie , okay ? and i know you 're hurting , lulu , and i am , too , okay ? but we need to pull together . we need to start healing , and i think i know how . lulu : how ? dante : we need to try again . we need to try and have another baby .
robin goes to maxie 's apartment to check on her to make sure she has n't tried to hurt herself again . maxie tells her that she told spinelli to take the baby with him and his girlfriend to portland , oregon . robin is surprised that spinelli has a girlfriend who is not maxie . robin asks her if she is prepared to live with that . spinelli tells sam about the move . he says it took all he had to deny maxie access to the baby . sam does n't want him to go . robin tells maxie that she asked sabrina to break it off with patrick , and that she said no . maxie is confident that patrick will choose to have his family intact . robin answers maxie 's door to spinelli . they are overwhelmed to see each other and hug . he tells maxie that he and ellie are going to go ahead with the move to portland if maxie is sure that she wants them to go . maxie agrees .
<s>[INST] [ knock on door ] maxie : [ sighs ] [ gasps ] robin ! oh ! i still ca n't . robin : need me to slap you again ? maxie : no . my cheek is still singing from the last time , thank you . i 'm sure you 're getting sick of people gawking at you like this , and i swear i will stop ... soonish . it 's just i 'm really happy you 're alive . robin : alive and nagging . [ clears throat ] how are you ? maxie : fine . good . robin : okay . not thinking about hurting yourself anymore ? maxie : now that i know i have you back , no way . robin : because you 're gon na get through this , and i know that you ca n't be with your daughter right now , but at least you know she 's just across town . maxie : for now . she might be moving across the country . spinelli : never has a more stunning being existed . nor a hungrier one . [ laughs ] sam : look at you . you 're feeding her like a champ . spinelli : yeah , we 're getting there . [ laughs ] she 's much calmer now that we 've had several days together . sam : well , she just needed time to adjust to a new place . [ sweetly ] hi . spinelli : or a new parent . [ chuckles ] i mean , even at her tender age , i 'm -- i 'm certain she was missing dante and lulu . sonny : hitting the bag pretty hard . dante : [ sighs , sniffs ] yeah , i got a lot of aggression to work out . sonny : about losing the baby ? dante : [ sniffs ] and about losing my wife . lulu : [ crying ] [ knock on door ] lulu : [ sniffles ] [ sighs , sniffles ] carly : hey . lulu : carly . uh , wow . it 's been forever . why are you here ? carly : i left you a message . i need your help . lulu : with what ? carly : franco . kevin : fine . thank you . how are you ? good , listen , uh , the reason -- franco : sidney , he 's gon na have to call you back . kevin : excuse me ! franco : no worries . you 're excused . i need your help . kevin : [ sighs ] you mean in a professional capacity ? franco : of course in a professional capacity . what other kind of help could i need from you ? kevin : well , i 'm sorry , i 'm not taking on any new patients right now . franco : not even one ? kevin : no , not even one . franco : why not ? what 's so important that you do n't have time for your work ? kevin : well , if you must know , i need to spend more time with my wife . lucy : did you hear what kevin said ? he wants to save our marriage . so , i have to go out there and find him and confess . i have to tell him that i slept with you . scott : hold on a second , lucy ! you 're gon na go tell him about this ? about us ? lucy : [ sighs ] yeah , of course i am . scott : why ? ! franco : i am so sorry to hear that you 're having problems with your wife . okay , that 's a lie . you 're right . i do n't care . i do n't care what kind of problems you 're having . whatever problems you 're having , trust me . my problems are much bigger . you need to make room for me . kevin : why so urgent ? franco : look ... if i do n't tell somebody what i 've done , i feel like i 'm gon na explode . please , you got to talk to me . please . kevin : tell you what . why do n't i reach out to some of my colleagues and see if they have some availability ? franco : i want to talk to you . kevin : why ? franco : well , because from what i hear , you 've went a little , you know , and , so , i -- kevin : i do n't see what that has to do with anything . franco : you will understand , and you wo n't run screaming from the room when i tell you what horrible , violent , and vicious thing i 've done . kevin : okay . what 'd you do ? franco : this is confidential , right ? kevin : yes , it is . franco : i killed somebody . lulu : i 'm guessing that you do n't know . carly : know what ? lulu : i -- we lost the baby . they took her from us . carly : oh , my god . i -- i did n't realize the judge had made a decision . can you appeal ? lulu : no . no . no , no appeal . it 's over . carly : i 'm so sorry . oh , lulu , i 'm so sorry . lulu : [ crying ] carly : i should have been here with you . i should have -- lulu : it 's not like i called or reached out or anything . carly : it does n't matter . i should have paid attention instead of being so caught up in my own life . kevin : i 'd be lying if i said i did n't know you by reputation , mr. franco . franco : it 's just franco . kevin : franco . franco : right . clearly you do know my reputation . so you also know ... kevin : that you allegedly killed several people . franco : okay , please , just do n't use the word `` spree , `` okay ? i hate that word . kevin : i also know that you were tried and found not guilty of those crimes . franco : right , because the tumor made me do it . kevin : did n't it ? franco : i do n't know . i mean , i thought so . i hoped so . and then ... yesterday happened . kevin : excuse me ? franco : yesterday , i stabbed someone ... to death . kevin : who ? franco : my mother . lucy : what kind of person would i be if i did n't tell kevin that we slept together ? scott : you would be a smart person . lucy : come on , he stood there while i shamelessly hid , and he professed his love for me . he said he loves me and that he wants our marriage to work . he even said that i 'm a force of nature . scott : so ? he said some nice things about you . so what ? lucy : so what ? ! scott : wait a minute . you want to get back with kevin . lucy : um ... of course i do . spinelli : what 's all this ? sam : this ? um , well , i 'm clearing out the office . i figured you could use it as a nursery . spinelli : thank you , but that may not be necessary because -- connie : [ coughs ] spinelli : ooh . we may not be here . i 'm considering leaving port charles . robin : your baby might be moving across the country ? maxie : well , ellie landed her dream job . robin : who 's ellie ? maxie : spinelli 's girlfriend . robin : spinelli has a girlfriend . maxie : oh , yeah . a real serious one . robin : who is n't you ? maxie : it 's a long story , and i will fill you in on that later . the point is , her job offer is in ... spinelli : portland , oregon . ellie does n't want to leave me behind , nor do i want to be left . and adding the baby , as well . it 's not fair to maxie to take our daughter so far away . sam : no , spinelli , maxie would -- she would freak . robin : you must be freaking out . spinelli ca n't take the baby to portland . i mean , i 'm astounded he would even consider doing that . maxie : actually , i 'm the one who told him -- robin : i hope you told him absolutely no way . spinelli : we were certain that maxie would oppose the idea . sam : [ sighs ] spinelli : but , in point of fact ... maxie : i told him to go . and to take the baby with him . spinelli : so , to say ellie and i were shocked ... but it 's true . maxie demanded -- practically begged us to leave town with this little one . carly : can you visit her every once in awhile ? lulu : she 's not my baby , so no . carly : [ sighs ] i am so sorry , lulu . that custody hearing must have been brutal . lulu : it was -- it was beyond . maxie and i dredged up every hateful , stupid thing we 've ever done . in the end , i lost the baby . and so did maxie . carly : so did maxie ? lulu : the judge said she was unfit . carly : well , so who 's raising the baby ? lulu : spinelli . he just came over and he picked her up and that was it . we went from being a family to ... being all alone . sonny : i know things have n't been easy for you and lulu since connie left . dante : well , i knew it was gon na be a struggle . i just thought we 'd be doing it together . sonny : and you will . dante : i 'm not so sure , sonny . i mean , lulu does n't even want to look at me , let alone talk to me . i mean , what if when we lost our baby , we lost our marriage , too ? carly : spinelli is amazing , and he 's great , and i 'm sure he will do the best he can to take care of that little girl , but he did n't even know that she was his daughter until after she was born . so , just because biology , he 's the only one worthy of custody ? lulu : it was n't just biology . i mean , it played a part in it , but ... the real reason that we lost her is because of dante . dante : lulu 's slipping away , and i ca n't stop her . sonny : sure you can . dante : how ? sonny : if she pushes you away , do n't let her . be there . dante : i 'm not gon na force her to talk to me . sonny : just wear her down until she does . dante : wear her down ? she 's my wife . we 're -- we 're -- we 're a team . at least , we were a team until ... sonny : until what ? dante : [ sighs ] lulu 's convinced i 'm the reason we lost custody . maxie : [ sighs ] i know myself , and i will never stop trying to see my baby . and spinelli is no match for me . i will get him to cave in no time . robin : but if spinelli takes your baby to portland , you might not have that opportunity . you need to think about this . maxie : i have . robin : well , think some more . if spinelli and ellie -- maxie : i know . right ? they 're quirky and smart and their names rhyme . it 's like the nerd gods fated them to be together . robin : if they take you up on your offer and they move across the country , you need to be prepared to live with that . are you ? spinelli : maxie confessed that she 's constantly tempted to defy the judge 's order . sam : no , i get it . if someone tried to take danny from me again , i would move heaven and earth to make sure that did not happen . spinelli : she already showed up here once , and all she wanted to do was -- was to see the baby , to hold her . [ sighs ] took everything in me to deny her access . sam : ooh . i can imagine . spinelli : so , you can see how maxie 's idea makes sense , right ? avoid temptation altogether by putting a continent between her and the baby . sam : i see , but what are you gon na do ? spinelli : i do n't know . ellie and i were up all night trying to figure it out . [ sighs ] you know , sometimes i hate being an adult . sam : [ chuckles ] spinelli : i just wish someone would tell me what to do . sam : well , spinelli , i know it 's not my place , but if it were up to me , i would tell you not to go . kevin : you killed your mother . franco : yeah . kevin : i assume you mean heather webber . franco : yeah , you heard about that , huh ? kevin : i know she made a spectacle at your art show a few weeks ago . must have been quite a shock . franco : ah , come on . nothing major . just , you know ... anything and everything that i ever thought about my life was proven to be a lie . kevin : you also learned the identity of your father , scott baldwin . franco : oh , yeah . that guy . why ? you know him ? kevin : he 's a close friend of my wife 's . and her ex - husband , as a matter of fact . franco : lucy coe ? kevin : you 've met ? franco : briefly . really ? lucy coe was married to my father ? kevin : yes . she was . franco : ooh . what did she ever see in that cold fish of a jerk ? scott : whoa , whoa , whoa . wait a minute , lucy . lucy : [ sighs ] scott : you want to get back with kevin ? lucy : absolutely . scott : but you were so -- scratch that ! you were furious with him ! lucy : yeah , i was . people make mistakes , though . look at us ! we 've made a million of them . and , you know what ? that 's the easy part . you know what the hard part is ? is owning up to them , and that 's what doc just did . he said he made a mistake by putting his patients before me . he is ready to change his life . scott : and you believe him ? lucy : yeah . more than that -- i love him , and he loves me . this -- this is incredible . scott : wait a minute , lucy . what -- what about me ? maxie : that judge was furious with me . and for argument sake , let 's just say that it does go my way . six months for me is like forever . robin : [ chuckles ] six minutes for you is like forever . maxie : at the cemetery , you said that i 'm strong , but i 'm not . robin : maxie . sending your daughter away so that spinelli wo n't lose her is so brave . you 're incredibly strong . maxie : well , it helped having you home . i know that . robin : [ chuckles ] maxie : and you do n't have to worry about me . we promised each other that we would survive , and that 's exactly what i 'm gon na do . rob : okay . maxie : now , enough about me . i need to know what 's going on with you and patrick . robin : oh . i did something really stupid . kevin : that cold fish of a jerk has been in my life for some time now . franco : on purpose ? kevin : mainly through lucy . franco : yeah ? all right . okay . so , then , you do n't like the guy , either , then , do you ? kevin : we 're not discussing my relationship with lucy . no , we 're taking it back to heather . franco : i mean , we kind of are . kevin : what happened ? franco : okay . um ... heather came to my hotel room to threaten carly jacks , my girlfriend . see , heather does n't -- did n't want me to be with carly . kevin : why not ? franco : i do n't know . she was never clear about that . but she was clear about all the rest , believe me . i mean , we 're talking phone calls and dead roses and death threats , and i warned her . i warned heather . i said , `` you [ sighs ] make a move on carly , and i will kill you . `` but she just would n't listen . kevin : so , heather attacked carly . franco : no , no . first , she got me out of my hotel room so that she could threaten -- kill c -- i figured out something was wrong , and , so , i rushed back into the room and there was heather standing there , with a knife ! kevin : was carly hurt ? franco : no , carly was in the shower , thankfully . carly does n't even know what happened . kevin : so , you got back to your room , and there 's heather with a knife . franco : yes , about to kill carly . kevin : what happened then ? franco : we argued , and i -- i got the knife away from her , and i killed her . i stabbed her . i had to stop her . she was n't gon na stop until she killed carly . i had to kill heather , to save carly . carly : the judge gave custody to spinelli because of dante ? dante : you were there . you saw how ugly that got . first maxie gets raked through the coals , then lulu . i could n't stand to see diane tear into her like that . carly : they accused you of killing your child ? you were a child yourself ! and the abortion was legal . lulu : it did n't end there . carly : okay , is this where dante comes in ? lulu : [ sighs ] during one of my many face - offs with maxie since this all started , i told her that i tried to get dante to leave the country . carly : with you and the baby . lulu : obviously , we did n't do it . it was one of those , like , heat of the moment things , and maxie told her lawyer . carly : and diane asked you about it under oath . lulu : i was terrified that i would look unfit . dante : so , lulu lied . she swore she never said that to maxie , that maxie was making it up . i do n't even know why i 'm saying this to you . you were there . sonny : sometimes you got to go over things just to make sense of it all . dante : yeah , well , it does n't make any sense to lulu . she 's never gon na understand why i did what i did . lulu : dante was on the stand , and he did everything that he could to dodge the question , but the more he drew it out , the more i knew that he was n't gon na back me , and he did n't back me . lulu : he told the judge that i lied . carly : [ sighs ] lulu : and then the judge said that our petition was denied . and i argued with him . i knew that i should n't , but i could n't help myself , and that 's when the judge said that i hurt the case by perjuring myself . carly : that must have been really awful for you . lulu : if dante had just backed me up , we would n't have lost our little girl . carly : you think this is dante 's fault . lulu : is n't it ? scott : what we did last night -- that does n't mean anything to you ? lucy : of course it does . it [ chuckles ] was beautiful , and i will never , ever forget last night . and we are always gon na be connected , i mean , though our daughter , and i -- i hope through our friendship . because , pal , that 's all we can ever be , is just friends . so , what do you say ? can we just please stay friends ? please ? kevin : well , it sounds like you acted to protected carly . franco : i did , yes . kevin : an uninvited woman was in your room ... with a weapon . you had no choice . franco : [ sighs ] thank you . kevin : i assume the police agree ? franco : uh , well , i did n't call the police . kevin : why not ? franco : um , `` hello , mr. policeman , nice to meet you . i 'm franco . `` if i tell them that i just stabbed my mother , then , you know , hasta la vista to the brain tumor defense . they 're not even gon na ask me why i did it . they 're just gon na throw me in a jail cell for the rest of my life . kevin : so , heather 's dead and nobody knows . franco : that is correct . kevin : what did you do with the body ? franco : i buried it . kevin : where ? franco : in a cemetery . kevin : you -- you -- you transported her body to a cemetery , and you dug a grave ? franco : no , okay , that 's the weird part . when i got there , there was already a freshly dug grave for me . dante : you know , i guess i should have backed lulu up , no matter what the cost , right ? that 's what you would have done . sonny : i 'm not you . i 'm not a cop . dante : well , i honestly do n't think it would have made any difference . sonny : but lulu does . dante : that 's not the only reason she 's upset . sonny : what do you mean ? dante : well , she -- she wanted to know why i could lie for you , but i could n't lie for her . sonny : that was a different situation . dante : yeah . you know , i perjured myself because the thought of telling the truth would cause so much pain to the people that i love . you know , that 's something i got to carry around with me every day for the rest of my life . and maybe it makes me a hypocrite , but i did n't want to see lulu have to carry around a lie like that . sonny : especially if it was n't gon na do any good . look , i did n't say anything at the time , but i always thought this custody was a long shot . dante : oh , yeah , i know . we -- we lost custody way before we ever set foot in that courtroom , but lulu ca n't accept that . sonny : but in time she will . that 's what i 'm trying to tell you . dante : i do n't know . you have n't , uh ... you have n't seen her , sonny . she 's in agony . sonny : she 's not the only one . dante : i want to help her , but i , you know -- she would n't let me go near her . [ chuckles ] i mean , what does she think ? i wanted us to lose our daughter ? lulu : you should be laughing in my face right now . carly : why would i do that ? lulu : you know why . [ sighs ] i was -- i was so smug , i was so self - righteous that day when dante barged into sonny 's trial and announced that michael killed claudia . sonny was standing trial for a murder he did n't commit , and you were perjuring yourself to save your son , and there i was , preaching about dante 's reasonability as a cop , and how it was the right thing to do to tell the truth , like i had some idea what it would be like to fight for your child . but i know now . carly : you know what ? losing a child -- there 's nothing worse . i get that you want to lash out . i do . [ chuckles ] but you and dante -- you guys need each other right now . he 's suffering , too . lulu : i just miss her so much . i just miss holding her , loving her . i feel like a piece of my heart has disappeared . [ crying ] what am i supposed to do without her ? carly : oh , i 'm so sorry . robin : so , i asked sabrina to let patrick go , because it would be easier for him if he did n't have to break her heart . maxie : easier for him to come back to you , where he belongs . what 's so stupid about that ? robin : well , for starters , she said no . that it 's patrick 's decision , not hers . maxie : that does n't mean it was a bad idea . robin : but who am i to think that i 'm more important than sabrina ? maxie : um , you 're patrick 's wife and the mother of his child . robin : what if that 's not enough anymore ? maxie : what if what 's not enough ? robin : maxie , it 's been two years . i mean , he could choose sabrina . maxie : he wo n't . robin : how can you be so sure about that ? maxie : i just am . and once patrick realizes that it 's you , that it 's always been you , you will know he chose you because he really loves you , not because sabrina made things easier on him and bowed out gracefully . robin : [ sighs ] i really hope you 're right . maxie : oh , please . i 'm always right . fine . this time i 'm right . i know it . spinelli : port charles has truly become my home . thanks to you and jason . connie : [ whines ] sam : here you go , baby . spinelli : you two were the first to make me feel like i actually belonged . and i have family here , thanks to you . sam : thanks to me ? come on , spinelli . you have family here because you are a loveable guy . spinelli : how could i even consider leaving that ? sam : for ellie . she is perfect for you . spinelli : well , you would know , after being witness to my many crushes . sam : oh , come on . they were n't all crushes . spinelli : i feel ready to give my entire heart and soul to another person , or , uh ... [ chuckling ] two people , as it were . [ sighs ] i just wish i knew where to do it . sam : how about this ? can you see yourself in portland , raising a family there ? spinelli : yeah , i can . and it 's a beautiful sight . but can i really leave my family here in port charles , with so many people that i love ? with you ? dante : i love connie , too . she was everything i ever wanted . this tiny , little , pink bundle . [ chuckles ] i wake up at night , thinking she 's crying , and i do n't know if she needs a diaper or if she needs to be fed , or something like that . she 's not even there . she 's never gon na be there . i 've never -- [ sighs ] oh , man . i 've never hated silence so much in my life as i do right now . i 'd like to just hear her cry . you know what i mean ? sonny : yeah . dante : oh , man ! [ voice breaking ] there 's this , like , emptiness right here . [ sniffles ] i ca n't feel it , you know ? it just kind of ... [ sniffles ] it just kind of hangs there . and , uh ... i 'm dealing with this all on my own because lulu does n't want to talk to me , and she does n't want to grieve with me . sonny : listen ... i know this is n't exactly the same thing , but i kind of know where you 're coming from a little bit 'cause -- what it feels like to -- to -- to have nobody . but i want you to know you got me . you always got me . sonny : no . dante : [ sighs ] sonny : hey . dante : guess i needed to get it out . sonny : that 's good . that 's good . you got it out . now , what are you gon na do about it ? sonny : you guys ca n't wallow in what 's going on here . i did that when connie died , and look where it got me . dante : i agree with you , but i still do n't know what the hell i 'm supposed to do . sonny : you got to take action . you got to jump - start your marriage . dante : [ chuckles ] okay . all right , i 'm open to any ideas , suggestions . sonny : you 'll figure it out . i have faith in you . dante : i 'm glad someone does . sonny : hey , listen to me . you 're my son . you 're strong . you can do this . and lulu can , too . carly : i would n't wish this pain on you ever . you know ? i do know you 're strong enough to survive this , and it will get easier , especially if you let somebody help you . lulu : by `` somebody , `` you mean dante . carly : you said it . i did n't . lulu : [ sighs ] why were you asking for help with franco , of all people ? you hate that guy . carly : oh . um ... things have changed between franco and me . lulu : are you seeing him ? carly : he 's hit rock bottom , and he 's looking for a job , and i just thought if you needed to hire a bartender at the haunted star , that you could hire him . lulu : okay , so , just so we 're clear , you are asking me to hire the man who strapped me to a bomb and tried to blow me up . franco : hey , doc , look . i know that you said that everything that happens here is just between us , but now that i told you -- kevin : i 'm still bound by doctor / patient confidentiality . franco : best rule in medicine . kevin : the only way i could divulge anything is if i believed you were a danger to yourself or to someone else . franco : well , that 's the thing , right ? i - i do n't know . i do n't know if i 'm still dangerous . kevin : do you feel any differently than you did before the tumor was removed ? franco : yeah . trust me , i feel different about everything . and , no , you know , i did n't have those -- those urges , right ? but then , you know , i stabbed my mother , so there 's that . i ca n't tell , you know ? you know , maybe taking the tumor out did n't have anything to do with anything . maybe i 'm just a psycho . kevin : is that how you see yourself , as a psycho ? franco : well , look who my mother is . kevin : your father 's not psychotic . franco : okay , maybe , but he 's not exactly the poster boy for compassion , either . scott : i do n't want to be friends . i want more than that . lucy : [ sighs ] scott : but , if i 'm gon na keep you in my life , what choice do i have ? lucy : [ sighs ] really ? scott : well , i could never say no to you . lucy : [ sighs ] thank you , thank you , thank you . i do n't know what i would do without you in my life . [ chuckles , sniffles ] scott : well , do n't tell kevin we slept together . not only would he not let us be friends , but he would n't let us be in the same room together . lucy : [ sniffles ] you think ? scott : yeah . every time we were alone , he would think that you were cheating on him . lucy : right . yeah . since you put it like that . scott : trust me , lucy . if you tell kevin the truth , it 'll hurt us all . franco : come on , doc . give it to me straight . really , i - i - i can take it , man . just -- just -- just -- i need to know , all right ? i really -- i really need to know who i am right now . kevin : my first impression ... is that killing heather was an isolated incident . as to the rest of it , who you are now , that 's a larger issue -- one to be explored in future sessions . franco : in future sessions ? so , you 'll take me on as a client ? kevin : yes . franco : thank you . thank you . i mean that . thank you . 'cause i really need to sort this out . if i do n't sort this out , i 'm gon na lose carly . she 's the best thing that ever happened to me . lulu : i 'm sorry , carly . i ca n't . carly : okay . franco was n't responsible for the things he did . his brain tumor was . lulu : you bought that ? that his brain tumor made him do it ? carly : he 's not the same man he used to be , okay ? can you just think about it ? will you at least do that , please ? lulu : yeah , fine . carly : and will you not mention it to franco that i was here ? lulu : you definitely do not have to worry about that . carly : thank you .

[ birds chirping ] thomas : steffy would never let that happen . ivy : i do n't really think she has a choice , thomas . thomas : ivy , this is beginning to sound a lot like blackmail . ivy : you 've seen the video . you 've seen that it 's not an accident . it was murder . thomas : aly was my cousin , too , all right ? her death was a tragedy . but murder ? that 's going too far . ivy : well , i doubt the police will see it that way . thomas : you would n't go to the cops . ivy : why should i cover for steffy ? hmm ? she took away someone 's life . she took away aly 's life . she took her away from her father , from her friends . she died in vain , and what ? i 'm just supposed to stay quiet ? no . i want something in return . i want to be right there next to maya as the new face of forrester . ridge : so , i have the feeling you did n't hear anything i said . where did you go ? caroline : oh . i 'm so sorry . yes . no . i heard , uh ... [ chuckling ] i heard everything you said . and i agree . i think , uh , adding a second face to forrester is a great idea . and maya did mention that she wanted to focus on her marriage for a little bit , so ... ridge : honeymoon should be long enough for that . caroline : oh . was it for you ? ridge : which time ? ah ! all i remember is my kids wanting me to come home . caroline : oh , that 's sweet . they miss their daddy ? [ door opens ] steffy : hi . where is everyone ? liam : actually , you know what ? i 'm kind of glad we have a minute . um ... as you know , we 've gotten a lot of press coverage about ... aly 's death . guys , i think it 's time we address that as a company . katie : i like it . it 's really respectful . bill : thanks . i 'm glad you do . you see , even i would not exploit the death of a young woman . katie : i know . [ sighs ] so awful . just a horrible , horrible accident . bill : yeah , it is . and i can tell you for a fact that other , more ... nefarious news outlets are going to dig for details . katie : sure , they 've only been given bits and pieces . bill : a forrester is dead . that 's news . steffy being there when it happened -- bigger news . thomas : you know , if you really wanted justice for aly , you would n't be making demands . ivy : you would n't understand , but this is for her . [ door opens ] thomas : wyatt , do you mind ? we 're -- we 're kind of in the middle of something . ivy : no , actually , it 's fine , because he 's seen the video , as well . thomas : [ chuckles ] you know what ? i had a feeling that you were behind this . wyatt : behind what ? let 's be clear here . this is not a witch hunt . this whole situation has been tragic for everyone , and despite her instincts , ivy has kept quiet and has not turned steffy in . so i agree . i think she deserves a little compensation for that . bill : steffy could have been the one in that body bag . katie : well , i knew aly had issues with steffy . i just did n't realize they were that serious . bill : issues ? that girl was dealing with some serious demons . katie : i just think it 's so unfortunate that she did n't get the help that she needed . i mean , therapy or medication -- something could have helped . bill : well , thorne must have taken her to the very best shrinks in paris . katie : [ sighs ] i guess liam says that steffy 's handling things pretty well , all things considered . bill : there 's nothing steffy could have done differently to prevent aly 's death . and the fact is she should feel grateful to be alive . carter : aly 's death is on the cover of every magazine , newspaper -- you name it , they 're running it , including your father . ridge : the man never misses an opportunity , does he ? carter : it 's actually not a bad article . but if anyone commits libel , i 'm filing a lawsuit . ridge : thank you . we got a few things we got to talk about . we got to talk about image and we got to talk about marketing . maya 's done a great job as lead model at forrester and the face of forrester , and the numbers reflect that , so i want to add another face to our new print campaign , and we talked about you being president and a model as well , but i think it 's time for some familiarity . i think it 's time for you to step up . steffy : well , if there 's any time to build on the brand , this is it . i 'd be honored , and i 'm very happy . ridge : all right . settled . ivy : actually , i have another hat i 'd like to throw into the ring . what about me ? ivy : look , i 'm sure steffy would do a great job . i mean , i know you would . but why not think outside the box ? why not give me a shot ? look , i get it . she 's your daughter , and you 're also the president of the company , so it makes sense . ridge : i did n't ask steffy 'cause she 's my daughter . i asked her because she 's the most qualified . caroline : i mean , we already have photo shoots lined up . the campaign is ready to go . ivy : yeah , well , i 'm ready , too . you know , i could start today . ridge : ivy , we need a seasoned spokesmodel , someone on par with maya . nothing against you . liam : listen , nobody is saying that you would n't make a great choice . in fact , i - i think we all know you would be . but -- but the thing is , right now , time is of the essence and we need somebody with a lot of experience . liam : if i may ... look , i - i realize steffy 's got the experience , but i agree . i think you should strongly consider ivy instead . katie : i knew aly had issues with steffy . i just did n't realize how serious they were . bill : no one could have predicted that aly would go off the rails like she did . katie : do you think she just snapped ? or did she have it all planned out ? bill : well , given the fact they found pictures of steffy and maya in her closet with nails between their eyeballs , i would say that indicates years of pent - up aggression . katie : yeah , but trying to run down steffy with her car , i mean , without any provocation -- it 's so extreme . bill : aly wanted revenge for her mother 's death and , i guess , for steffy being ... an evolved , liberated woman . katie : that 's one way of describing steffy . i can think of a few others . bill : you know who i think maybe has a little blood on their hands ? katie : who ? bill : ivy . katie : ivy ? why ? bill : because ivy should have discouraged her from being so protective -- i - i should say obsessive -- about liam and steffy . katie : steffy stole ivy 's boyfriend away from her . i 'm sure , in aly 's mind , she was just being loyal . bill : well , either way , it is a huge loss for the forrester family . and from what i understand , steffy is dealing with it as well as can be expected . but i think that , um , it 's probably a lot more difficult for her than we realize . liam : look , steffy 's got a lot on her plate -- more than any of us can even imagine . she 's back to l.a. she 's got a job as president now , and that just takes up a huge chunk of time and energy . steffy : i can manage . thank you . ridge : ivy , you got your own career . you 're a jewelry designer . you 're not a model , really , right ? ivy : look , i - i know that i do n't have as much time in front of the camera as steffy does , but ... i mean , come on . let 's not forget how i stepped up in that shoot in amsterdam . i mean , that was a huge success . carter : yeah , ivy , you did a phenomenal job , but you have to give hope credit for that , too . liam : but ivy 's got more to offer than just being a designer . she 's beautiful , poised , upscale . this is everything the forrester name embodies . ridge : [ sighs ] jumping into a shoot 's very different than representing a whole line . you know that , right ? liam : plus we 've used steffy before . i mean , experience is one thing , yes , but -- but our clients really want consistency , and they know steffy 's face . carter : and she has a huge fan base . liam : all the more reason to use ivy . she 's fresh , she 's new , and i - i hate to bring this up , but it 's something that we do need to consider in all this -- the confrontation the other night -- that was between aly and steffy . and i do n't know about you guys , but from a p.r . standpoint , i just think it 's -- it 's not wise to put steffy in the spotlight until it all sorts itself out . ridge : it has sorted itself out . aly attacked steffy . she fell , hit her head , and she died . it was a tragic accident . ivy : no , i think wyatt has a point . we do n't know exactly what 's gon na come of this . some of these investigations can take months , and we do n't know what other information could emerge . look , forrester could end up looking bad -- really bad -- unless we do what 's right . steffy : that 's enough . that 's enough . how dare you ? thomas : dad , dad , i have something to say , okay ? i think they may have a point . maybe we should go with ivy . steffy : are you serious , thomas ? thomas : just hear me out . zende : should we leave ? nicole : yeah , we can go if -- carter : you 're fine . ridge : you want ivy representing this line ? thomas : might not be a bad idea keeping her working behind the scenes for the time . liam : what -- why ? what does that accomplish ? thomas : just for the time being , okay , until things blow over . liam : okay , but , i mean , i can understand if steffy had done something wrong or if she was hiding something , but that 's not the case here . caroline : no , no , no , no , no . no one 's saying that . everyone knows that aly 's death was accidental . carter : steffy 's not accused of any crimes . no charges have been filed . thomas : and i 'm not saying she will be . ridge : what are you saying ? thomas : look -- ridge : you 're making her sound like a criminal . thomas : people are talking , okay ? they 're coming up with their own theories about what might have happened that night . liam : what ? where ? on blogs ? on social media ? that 's -- that 's gon na happen no matter what the story is . thomas : we have to be smart and respectful . okay , thorne 's hurting . he 's still processing his daughter 's death . yeah , aly 's followers are devastated . you know , and the media 's still hungry for more gossip . it might not be a bad idea to keep steff away from all the attention . liam : okay , thomas , listen . if -- if we hide steffy , what message do you think that sends ? caroline : he 's right . it may just add fuel to the fire . liam : exactly . people are just gon na get more and more suspicious , and for what ? i mean , nobody 's even broken the law . nobody 's even come close . thomas : i want to keep this as uncomplicated as possible , keep steffy safe from scrutiny . look , you 've already got a full schedule running the company with dad . ivy 's modeled before . like she said , she came through in amsterdam . i think ivy 's our safest bet right now . adding her to the face of forrester is the -- is the best decision for all of us . steffy : wow . wyatt : at least consider it , ridge . i think that 'd be the wise thing to do . ridge : thank you for your input . i 'll think about it . steffy : you ca n't be serious . ridge : meeting adjourned . steffy : i need to talk to you right now . [ door closes ] katie : you know , compared to forrester , it 's pretty calm around here . i mean , no drama , no arguments , no secrets . bill : there are no secrets over there anymore , either . forrester 's an open book ... thanks to the big dog . katie : are you still patting yourself on the back for making maya a household name ? bill : absolutely . i mean , come on . you got to admit . was what i did so bad ? katie : yes ! it was , and i 'm still a little bit mad at you . bill : how can you be mad at this face ? katie : aww , you 're right . you 're very lucky you have such a handsome face . bill : [ chuckles ] hey . you know , i 've been , uh , you know , really good lately . katie : i know . it 's almost eerie . makes me wonder what you 've done . i guess it -- it has been pretty calm around here , knock on wood . bill : yeah . we 're on a roll . i mean , we 're good . kids are good . katie : mm - hmm . [ chuckles ] bill : it 's all good . katie : should i lock the door ? bill : i already did . katie : [ laughs ] ivy : thank you . wyatt : yeah . ivy : [ chuckles ] mm . wyatt : hmm ? ivy : thank you for jumping in back there . wyatt : yeah . you ready to be on a bunch of billboards all over the world ? ivy : well , ridge still has to make his decision first . wyatt : right , but there were a lot of valid points made in there , from thomas , too . and if our instincts are right , if thomas knows what 's good for steffy and the company , he 's gon na convince ridge to choose you . ivy : god , if only everyone knew the real reason why . wyatt : i know , but thomas was looking out for his sister . ivy : and liam sure was quick to jump to steffy 's defense . wyatt : yeah . as if it was n't annoyingly clear before -- those two are officially attached at the hip . ivy : well , at least we know where liam 's loyalties lie , i guess . wyatt : i wonder if that would change if he saw the video , you know ? ivy : thomas has n't told steffy yet . she has no clue about the footage . wyatt : right . ivy : yeah , i bet she 's wondering while he stood up against her in that meeting , too . wyatt : yeah , i 'm sure she 's freaking out right now . i 'm surprised we ca n't hear her screaming from all the way up here . steffy : what the hell was that ? thomas : steff , calm down . steffy : no , thomas , you are supposed to be on my side . i am your sister . why are you promoting ivy ? thomas : i did it for you . steffy : what ? ridge : oh , boy . what a meeting , huh ? caroline : i do n't know how you did n't just completely lose it . ridge : almost did . caroline : i thought that thomas and steffy were getting along . ridge : yeah , i thought they were , too . caroline : well , if there were n't issues before , there 's definitely gon na be some now , 'cause steffy was so upset . ridge : so , thomas is backing wyatt and ivy ? when did that happen ? caroline : i do n't know . but i think ... i think , if i 'm being honest , you did rip up his designs , and then you gave steffy the presidency , and now you 're offering her a modeling contract . i mean , maybe he just feels slighted . ridge : they 've always been competitive . there 's sibling rivalry . it happens all the time . and i just -- him not endorsing steffy ... [ sighs ] i do n't know . it 's just something 's happening that i 'm not aware of . caroline : yeah , but , you know , wyatt does have a point . he does . there is this media frenzy over aly 's death . but , i have to tell you , it does n't take a genius to figure out why he 's pro - ivy . ridge : 'cause they 're hooking up . caroline : right ? it 's kind of obvious . ridge : it 's written all over their foreheads . caroline : all over . ridge : all over them . yeah . caroline : so , who you gon na choose ? is ivy gon na be the new face of forrester ? wyatt : look , why should n't you be representing the company , ivy ? i mean , you 're more than qualified . you 're a forrester . i mean , you deserve the title just as much as steffy . ivy : i mean , it 'd just be such a privilege . wyatt : yeah , and not only that , it would make aly happier , seeing you , you know , succeed . ivy : and knock steffy down a peg or two . wyatt : i know . but there 's no more waiting on the sideline , okay ? ivy : mm - hmm . wyatt : you have way too much to offer here . ivy : so do you . wyatt : oh , i know . i know that . my brother does n't know anything about fashion , and i got way more p.r . experience . ivy : exactly . that 's what i 'm saying . you know this company inside out , back to front . wyatt : yeah . liam does n't know anything . dad made him vp of spencer and vp of forrester . there 's -- there 's got to be something illegal there . ivy : that is just like liam . wyatt : what ? ivy : well , he -- he ca n't make up his mind , so he keeps his two options just there for as long as he possibly can . wyatt : right . right . you know what ? he can have steffy , and he can have the titles . okay ? 'cause we 're not gon na let anyone stop us . not anymore . this is our time to shine now . steffy : you did it for me ? thomas : yes . steffy : oh , thomas , you know how i feel about ivy . all the things that she 's been saying about me . and now you 're backing her ? i 'm thinking about firing her , not making her the face of forrester . thomas : there is a reason i said what i did . steffy : oh , why ? why ? because you -- you think she 's talented ? so is quinn . no , i - i 'm not allowing this to happen . thomas : you may not have a choice . steffy : of course i have a choice . i 'm president of this company . and dad is ceo , and we just put him on the spot in that meeting . but do n't worry , i will talk to him , because he 's -- he 's loyal to me . unlike you are . thomas : i am loyal to you , steff . steffy : oh , clearly . thomas : you and i made a promise , remember ? to look out for each other , to have each other 's backs no matter what ? steffy : yeah , you did a really good job of holding up your end of the bargain . thomas : okay , you listen to me , steff . you have no idea how dangerous this situation really is . steffy : what situation ? thomas : you and aly . what happened that night . steffy : you told me not to tell anyone . thomas : and you ca n't . steffy : okay , i do n't care if ivy is saying bad things about me . if that 's why you 're siding with her , you do n't have to do that . it 's not necessary . thomas : oh , yes , i do . steffy : i was defending myself . oh , my god . if i did n't do anything , aly would have killed me . thomas : i know that , steff . i know . steffy : you know what , no matter what ivy says , it 's her word against mine . thomas : it 's not that simple . steffy : what are you talking about ? what are you talking about ? thomas : i did n't want to tell you this . i was trying to protect you . steffy : protect me from who ? ivy ? thomas : yes . she has a video . steffy : a video of -- of what ? thomas : you and aly on the side of the road that night . she 's implying that ... steffy : implying what ? thomas : that it was murder .
thomas says this is beginning to sound a lot like blackmail . aly 's death was tragic but murder is carrying it too far . ivy says steffy took away a life and she is supposed to be quiet – no , she wants something in return .right there next to maya as the new face of fc . with ridge and caroline together , liam and steffy walk in and liam says they are getting a lot of press about aly 's accident and he thinks they need to address that . katie and bill discuss the same thing , the news of aly 's death and how it is big news and needs to be handled in the magazine . thomas tells ivy if she really wanted justice for aly she would not be making these demands . wyatt tells thomas that he too thinks ivy needs some compensation , this is not a witch hunt . ridge tells steffy that he thinks it is time to step up . ivy walks in and says she would like to put her name in the hat . ridge says he picked his daughter and liam chimes in that she has the experience . bill explains to katie that the board had been found in aly 's bedroom with nails between steffy 's eyeballs , just a little aggression there . this is a huge loss for the forrester family but especially on steffy for how it went down . she is handling it as best she can . wyatt repeats that ivy is more than just a jeweler , she is beautiful and can do this . she is fresh and new and they need to consider this since the confrontation was between steffy and aly .
<s>[INST] [ birds chirping ] thomas : steffy would never let that happen . ivy : i do n't really think she has a choice , thomas . thomas : ivy , this is beginning to sound a lot like blackmail . ivy : you 've seen the video . you 've seen that it 's not an accident . it was murder . thomas : aly was my cousin , too , all right ? her death was a tragedy . but murder ? that 's going too far . ivy : well , i doubt the police will see it that way . thomas : you would n't go to the cops . ivy : why should i cover for steffy ? hmm ? she took away someone 's life . she took away aly 's life . she took her away from her father , from her friends . she died in vain , and what ? i 'm just supposed to stay quiet ? no . i want something in return . i want to be right there next to maya as the new face of forrester . ridge : so , i have the feeling you did n't hear anything i said . where did you go ? caroline : oh . i 'm so sorry . yes . no . i heard , uh ... [ chuckling ] i heard everything you said . and i agree . i think , uh , adding a second face to forrester is a great idea . and maya did mention that she wanted to focus on her marriage for a little bit , so ... ridge : honeymoon should be long enough for that . caroline : oh . was it for you ? ridge : which time ? ah ! all i remember is my kids wanting me to come home . caroline : oh , that 's sweet . they miss their daddy ? [ door opens ] steffy : hi . where is everyone ? liam : actually , you know what ? i 'm kind of glad we have a minute . um ... as you know , we 've gotten a lot of press coverage about ... aly 's death . guys , i think it 's time we address that as a company . katie : i like it . it 's really respectful . bill : thanks . i 'm glad you do . you see , even i would not exploit the death of a young woman . katie : i know . [ sighs ] so awful . just a horrible , horrible accident . bill : yeah , it is . and i can tell you for a fact that other , more ... nefarious news outlets are going to dig for details . katie : sure , they 've only been given bits and pieces . bill : a forrester is dead . that 's news . steffy being there when it happened -- bigger news . thomas : you know , if you really wanted justice for aly , you would n't be making demands . ivy : you would n't understand , but this is for her . [ door opens ] thomas : wyatt , do you mind ? we 're -- we 're kind of in the middle of something . ivy : no , actually , it 's fine , because he 's seen the video , as well . thomas : [ chuckles ] you know what ?

[ scene_break ] colin : the good news is there are some new studies on our side . doctors are more comfortable now prescribing chemo for pregnant women , as long as the patient is in her second trimester . jeffrey : so what would the first step be ? colin : well , to start , we would refer you to an ob / gyn who has experience in cases like these . and then he and i will go through this thing hand - in - hand . jeffrey : so you 'll have a whole team , reva , your own crew . reva : kind of like nascar . colin : yes , i guess you could look at it like that . and of course , we 'll give you the chemo that 's least likely to affect the fetus . reva : you 'd be pumping my body full of poison , and that goes against everything i was told at the onset of this pregnancy . colin : but , reva , all pregnancies have risks , even normal ones . the trick is to minimize those risks . reva : i ca n't eat a tuna sandwich , and yet you 're saying it 's okay to put toxins in my blood ? colin : the placenta is an amazing piece of work . the levels of chemotherapy agents found in the mother 's blood do not correspond to the levels found in the placenta or the amniotic fluid or the baby itself . in plain english ... jeffrey : it 's a miracle . colin : yeah . reva : well , i just ... i feel like there has to be exceptions , like there is this giant `` but `` coming . colin : well , there are exceptions . there 's a slightly elevated risk that the child could be stillborn , or low birth weight . but those numbers are statistically very low . jeffrey : reva is in her second trimester , so could we start the chemo right away ? colin : yes . and the goal is complete remission . that means no leukemia cells in your bone marrow , which will happen when your platelets and your white blood cells ... reva : you have no children , right ? colin : right . reva : okay . so what i want to know is that , if this were you , if this were your baby and you were in my shoes , would you do this ? jeffrey : reva , i do n't think that 's appropriate . colin : no , it 's okay . i 'd be doing exactly what you 're doing , which is asking a lot of questions . this is a big consideration . jeffrey : well , i liked him . i mean , i really liked him . is he going to be okay ? reva : oh , yeah . yeah . i feel safe with him . josh : hey . reva : hi , josh . josh : what are you guys doing here ?

[ tearfully ] please ? [ beeping ] brady : damn it ! it 's not phoenix either . ah , screw this . maybe unscrew this . [ suspenseful music ] what the hell . xander : chill , boss . i was in and out of salem in under an hour , and everything 's under control here . kristen : i need to know that you 're loyal to me and not distracted by nicole . xander : i am loyal to you . you gave me a job when my whole family turned their back on me . i thought victor would be grateful when i saved theresa from that drug lord in mexico , but no ... he threw me out on my ass , again . kristen : when i heard about that , i had a feeling that you would be happy to work for one of your uncle 's rivals . xander : and have i not delivered ? i kept your project safe . even nicole has no idea what i 'm doing here . kristen : no , you 've accomplished what i 've asked you . but we ca n't get sloppy . our work here is not done , and until it is , we have to protect this project with our lives . sami : so ... where is ej ? stefan : he 's ... recovering ... in a private facility . sami : ' kay . where is this facility ? do you have a -- do you have an address ? stefan : whoa , ho - hold on . need i remind you of our deal ? half of the money before i talked , half of the money after ? sami : yeah , but you 're not done talking -- you have to tell me where to find my husband . stefan : wire the rest of the money into my account , and i 'll tell you exactly where he is . sami : wait a second -- that is not our deal . stefan : yeah , well , you know , deals evolve , and this is ... what 's on the table now . take it or leave it . roman : can you believe that crazy woman came to the pub ? kayla : yeah , of course i can believe it . she 's `` crazy `` about you . and brady 's cheeseburger and fries , apparently . roman : yeah , well , she 's back now , and hopefully , she will ... remain loyal to her new husband . kayla : [ sighs ] poor john . this on top of everything else . to have hattie adams as his lawfully wedded wife ? oy . roman : yeah , well , hopefully we can get that marriage annulled very soon . kayla : and she 'll be out of our lives for good . roman : i hope you know how proud i am of you . kayla : [ small laugh ] me ? why ? roman : yeah , you . for being so brave and for giving yourself so completely to helping marlena even though ... you 're going through a tough time yourself . kayla : well ... i feel better now that i talked to steve ... just knowing that he understands now why he was arrested . and like you , i 'm gon na be optimistic that shane will clear his name , and then he can finally just ... come home to me . roman : it 'll happen , kay . soon . eric : i am not leaving you here with xander . nicole : it 's the only way for holly to have the life she deserves . eric : what about the life you deserve ? think about everything you went through to be her mother . are you really willing to let her go ? nicole : it 'll be the hardest thing i 've ever done . but i 'm telling you , you could give her a better life than i could right now . eric : no . nicole : yes . eric : no . i will not do that . nicole : please , eric . eric : you are her mother . she needs you , and you need her . nicole : holly 's already had a tough life . i just want her to be safe and happy . eric : and she will be , and so will you . nicole , we 've already lost so much time together . we 're in this together . and i 'm not leaving you ... ever . sami : you son of a bitch . i should have known that i could n't trust you . stefan : [ laughing ] let 's be honest , sami -- can either one of us really trust the other ? sami : you know , i 'm going to find ej , with or without your help . and if it 's without , i can tell you right now that i will make sure he knows how his half- brother treated me , and he will destroy you . stefan : well , h - how you gon na find him ? sami : i see what you 're doing -- you do n't want me to find ej . is that it ? you 're afraid of what will happen if i do ? stefan : why would i be afraid ? sami : you have a very good reason to be afraid , because he 's twice the man that you are . you 're worried that he 'd try to take the company from you , and you 're already having to deal with chad . stefan : look , if ej dimera decides to come back to the land of the living , i will welcome him with open arms . i mean , i came here to salem to connect with my family . that was the whole reason . sami : really ? stefan : yeah . sami : then why did you start a war with chad ? stefan : well , chad is threatened by me . he tried to push me out . sami : you wan na connect with your family , then prove it . help me find my husband . look ... stefan . i do n't know you very well . so i ca n't expect you to understand . and maybe you 've never had this experience of meeting someone who sees you for who you really are ... all your faults ... and they love you anyway . or maybe they love you because of them . but that 's what i have with ej . he is everything to me . and he is everything to our kids . and when we lost him ... our whole world fell apart . i have spent ... three years searching for him . and if you have any decency , please ... please tell me where to find him . stefan : i do n't know where he is . i would tell you if i did . [ soft emotional music ] wait . i may have something that can help you -- maybe . sami : what ? stefan : when kristen left , uh ... harold found this scratch piece of paper with an address on it . i do n't know if it 's connected . sami : but it might -- i - it might be the address -- stefan : i do n't know . sami : it might be where kristen has ej . [ breathless laugh ] xander : so you 've been in salem this whole time . kristen : mm . mostly in tunnels under the dimera house . xander : oh . did you at least accomplish what you set out to do ? kristen : well ... i did n't come to nashville alone . brady 's with me . xander : brady left eve for you ? kristen : why so surprised ? he has n't gotten over me . xander : he told you that . kristen : yes ! he told me that . xander : and you do n't think maybe he was lying ? kristen : i am not naive . i overheard him talking with his father , and he could have turned me in , but he didn't . he loves me . and i can trust him . [ suspenseful music ] brady : oh , man , that 's a lotta wires . okay . green and blue -- [ exhales ] what the hell ? [ electric sizzle ] today is the day and it 's gon na be great . john : i want you to listen to me . no more field trips . [ hattie laughs ] no more burger runs . you just sit here in your bed , you eat your damn jell - o and keep your big mouth shut ! hattie : is that any way to treat your new wifey ? you 'd better not forget who 's got the leverage here . john : you do n't have as much leverage as you think you have . hattie : oh , really ? really ? what if i just tell them who busted me outta statesville ? huh ? and who set me up here to become marlena ?

[ dark , tense music ] eric : you would n't have stabbed deimos if you had n't been drugged . you are not a killer . nicole : no , i 'm not a killer . and no matter how ... terrible deimos was to me i still have to live with the guilt of his murder every day . eric : then why would you bring up the idea of killing xander ? nicole : because i 'm desperate , eric . you have no idea what it 's been like the past few months here -- trapped , alone , scared that if i do something wrong , he 'll send me to jail with that confession . eric : killing him 's not the answer . nicole : then what is ? how else am i gon na be free ? how else am i gon na be with you ? eric : i do n't know . i do n't know yet .

[ laughing ] john : thank you for bringing her back . i can handle her from here . roman : all right . i 'll let kayla and marlena know all is well . hattie , do n't even think about coming by the pub again ! all right ? [ hattie making comical sounds ] i 'm serious . if you do ... there will be hell to pay , i guarantee . hattie : all right ! and you know what else ? i think you 're sexy when you 're angry . i do .

[ dramatic chords ] eric : ca n't believe how big she 's gotten . nicole : well , it 's been almost a year . eric : i guess in my head she was still that little girl that i said good - bye to . nicole : yeah . yeah , holly , this is ... my friend eric . he 's a very good guy , and he helped rescue us the last time we needed help . eric : wow . holly , you sure are the prettiest thing i 've ever seen .

[ soft , emotional music ] [ whispering ] god , i miss this . and i miss the idea of the life i thought we were gon na have together . nicole : i miss it too . and i ... eric : what is it ? nicole : [ exhales ] xander 's never gon na let me go . not as long as he has that recording . but eric , you ... you could keep holly safe . you could take her with you . eric : and -- and leave you behind ? nicole : it 's -- it 's the only way . i do n't want her to grow up a prisoner like i did . i mean , i spent almost my whole childhood in fear of my father . i - i don't ... i do n't want that for her . i want better for my little girl . i want holly to have a normal life and a great family , and she 's never gon na have that if she 's trapped here with me . eric : nicole , listen -- nicole : please , eric . will you take my daughter and ... and raise her as your own ? [ tearfully ] please ? [ beeping ] brady : damn it ! it 's not phoenix either . ah , screw this . maybe unscrew this . [ suspenseful music ] what the hell . xander : chill , boss . i was in and out of salem in under an hour , and everything 's under control here . kristen : i need to know that you 're loyal to me and not distracted by nicole . xander : i am loyal to you . you gave me a job when my whole family turned their back on me . i thought victor would be grateful when i saved theresa from that drug lord in mexico , but no ... he threw me out on my ass , again . kristen : when i heard about that , i had a feeling that you would be happy to work for one of your uncle 's rivals . xander : and have i not delivered ? i kept your project safe . even nicole has no idea what i 'm doing here . kristen : no , you 've accomplished what i 've asked you . but we ca n't get sloppy . our work here is not done , and until it is , we have to protect this project with our lives . sami : so ... where is ej ? stefan : he 's ... recovering ... in a private facility . sami : ' kay . where is this facility ? do you have a -- do you have an address ? stefan : whoa , ho - hold on . need i remind you of our deal ? half of the money before i talked , half of the money after ? sami : yeah , but you 're not done talking -- you have to tell me where to find my husband . stefan : wire the rest of the money into my account , and i 'll tell you exactly where he is . sami : wait a second -- that is not our deal . stefan : yeah , well , you know , deals evolve , and this is ... what 's on the table now . take it or leave it . roman : can you believe that crazy woman came to the pub ? kayla : yeah , of course i can believe it . she 's `` crazy `` about you . and brady 's cheeseburger and fries , apparently . roman : yeah , well , she 's back now , and hopefully , she will ... remain loyal to her new husband . kayla : [ sighs ] poor john . this on top of everything else . to have hattie adams as his lawfully wedded wife ? oy . roman : yeah , well , hopefully we can get that marriage annulled very soon . kayla : and she 'll be out of our lives for good . roman : i hope you know how proud i am of you . kayla : [ small laugh ] me ? why ? roman : yeah , you . for being so brave and for giving yourself so completely to helping marlena even though ... you 're going through a tough time yourself . kayla : well ... i feel better now that i talked to steve ... just knowing that he understands now why he was arrested . and like you , i 'm gon na be optimistic that shane will clear his name , and then he can finally just ... come home to me . roman : it 'll happen , kay . soon . eric : i am not leaving you here with xander . nicole : it 's the only way for holly to have the life she deserves . eric : what about the life you deserve ? think about everything you went through to be her mother . are you really willing to let her go ? nicole : it 'll be the hardest thing i 've ever done . but i 'm telling you , you could give her a better life than i could right now . eric : no . nicole : yes . eric : no . i will not do that . nicole : please , eric . eric : you are her mother . she needs you , and you need her . nicole : holly 's already had a tough life . i just want her to be safe and happy . eric : and she will be , and so will you . nicole , we 've already lost so much time together . we 're in this together . and i 'm not leaving you ... ever . sami : you son of a bitch . i should have known that i could n't trust you . stefan : [ laughing ] let 's be honest , sami -- can either one of us really trust the other ? sami : you know , i 'm going to find ej , with or without your help . and if it 's without , i can tell you right now that i will make sure he knows how his half- brother treated me , and he will destroy you . stefan : well , h - how you gon na find him ? sami : i see what you 're doing -- you do n't want me to find ej . is that it ? you 're afraid of what will happen if i do ? stefan : why would i be afraid ? sami : you have a very good reason to be afraid , because he 's twice the man that you are . you 're worried that he 'd try to take the company from you , and you 're already having to deal with chad . stefan : look , if ej dimera decides to come back to the land of the living , i will welcome him with open arms . i mean , i came here to salem to connect with my family . that was the whole reason . sami : really ? stefan : yeah . sami : then why did you start a war with chad ? stefan : well , chad is threatened by me . he tried to push me out . sami : you wan na connect with your family , then prove it . help me find my husband . look ... stefan . i do n't know you very well . so i ca n't expect you to understand . and maybe you 've never had this experience of meeting someone who sees you for who you really are ... all your faults ... and they love you anyway . or maybe they love you because of them . but that 's what i have with ej . he is everything to me . and he is everything to our kids . and when we lost him ... our whole world fell apart . i have spent ... three years searching for him . and if you have any decency , please ... please tell me where to find him . stefan : i do n't know where he is . i would tell you if i did . [ soft emotional music ] wait . i may have something that can help you -- maybe . sami : what ? stefan : when kristen left , uh ... harold found this scratch piece of paper with an address on it . i do n't know if it 's connected . sami : but it might -- i - it might be the address -- stefan : i do n't know . sami : it might be where kristen has ej . [ breathless laugh ] xander : so you 've been in salem this whole time . kristen : mm . mostly in tunnels under the dimera house . xander : oh . did you at least accomplish what you set out to do ? kristen : well ... i did n't come to nashville alone . brady 's with me . xander : brady left eve for you ? kristen : why so surprised ? he has n't gotten over me . xander : he told you that . kristen : yes ! he told me that . xander : and you do n't think maybe he was lying ? kristen : i am not naive . i overheard him talking with his father , and he could have turned me in , but he didn't . he loves me . and i can trust him . [ suspenseful music ] brady : oh , man , that 's a lotta wires . okay . green and blue -- [ exhales ] what the hell ? [ electric sizzle ] today is the day and it 's gon na be great . john : i want you to listen to me . no more field trips . [ hattie laughs ] no more burger runs . you just sit here in your bed , you eat your damn jell - o and keep your big mouth shut ! hattie : is that any way to treat your new wifey ? you 'd better not forget who 's got the leverage here . john : you do n't have as much leverage as you think you have . hattie : oh , really ? really ? what if i just tell them who busted me outta statesville ? huh ? and who set me up here to become marlena ? 'cause if i do , you know what ? it 's over . it 's over for you and for marlena . john : and you ! forget freedom , forget burgers , forget roman . you 'll be dragged back to prison so damn fast , it 'll make your head spin ! hattie : oh , i doubt that you would do that . john : oh , we wo n't do it . because as much as i hate it , you and i are now mr . and mrs . john black , so damn it , start acting like it ! hattie : [ groans ] ohh ... ohh ! nicole : you 're right , i - i -- i do n't know what i was thinking . i could never live without my daughter . eric : and you 'll never have to worry about that either . you know , my ... biggest mistake -- we 've made so many of them when we first fell in love -- and my biggest was ever letting you go . nicole : you ca n't change the past , but i know in my heart , some way ... somehow , we will have a future . eric : we will . but first , we need to find that recording . nicole : okay . eric : i want you to tell me , where does xander go when he leaves this apartment ? nicole : well , he leaves every morning for a -- a few hours . supposedly , he goes to work like he told you . eric : well , starting tomorrow , i 'm gon na follow xander and see where he goes . maybe wherever he spends his day , that 's where the recording is . nicole : okay , but just be careful -- you know how dangerous he is . eric : you do n't need to worry . [ whispers ] promise .

is she having her baby today , right w ? w ? i just pray she 's all right . sheridan : please help . i 'm having the baby . help me , please . ugh ! ugh , i can do this . i have to do this . i owe it to my baby and to luis . ugh ! luis : stop now ?

theresa : oh , look ! whitney : oh , god . theresa : more champagne . fox : whoo - hoo ! chad : wait , what 's going on ? whitney : oh , not a whole lot . theresa : can i talk to you for a moment ? fox : mm - hmm . chad : what was that all about ? whitney : hmm , not sure . but hey , at least they 're together , right ? chad : whitney , i do n't think this matchmaking deal 's going to work . whitney : look , you 'll see . if anyone can make theresa forget about ethan , it 's fox . i mean , i have a feeling if he wants something , he wo n't stop until he gets it . fox : hey , what , what , what do you want to talk to me about ? theresa : i have come up with a foolproof plan , ok ? i figured it all out . fox : you have , have you ? ok , ok , what exactly have you figured out ? theresa : how you 're going to help me get ethan back . gwen : i 'm worried , ethan . today is sheridan 's due date . you would think she would contact somebody . ethan : well , we 're out here in l.a. maybe she called luis or antonio . gwen : but don'yoyou think they would 've called us , especially if she had the baby ? i would think she would want me to know . i 'm sheridan 's best friend . ethan : i 'm sure she 'll be in touch . gwen : but when ? i really miss talking to sheridan . i miss the girl talk , especially now . i thought this was going to be such a wonderful time for the two of us . ethan : because you 're both pregnant . gwen : we should be sharing all the joys that mothers - to - be feel dreaming about our babies ' futures . sheridan and i have been friends practically forever and i alally need her with me during this time , and i know that she needs me , too . that 's why it is just so strange that she has not been in contact with me . ethan : it -- it is odd . gwen : ethan , when we were younger , sheridan and i used to talk on the phone forouours , about boyfriends and our futures and what it would be like to be married and have a child . and -- and now it 's happening and we 're apart . ethan : well , gwen , she did say that she needed to get away from the tension in her life and to work on the situation with luis and antonio . gwen : but to be completely and totally out of touch ? no , that is not sheridan . she is a wonderfully thoughtful and caring person . why would she completely ignore the most incredible time in my life , and would n't she wante e to share in the happiest part of her life ? she wanted to have this baby . she was so excited . you would think that her best friend would get at least one call , right ? ethan : i 'm -- i 'm not making any excuses for her , but , gwen , like i said , we 've been away . gwen : she has our cell phone numbers , ethan , plus she 's a crane . she has the capability to get in touch with anyone in the world . ethan : that 's true . gwen : i 'm just -- i 'm scared for her . i just can not shake this feeling that sheridan 's in trouble , maybe in danger even .

[ ethan sighs ] ethan : yeah . it is odd , you know , that she has n't even at least gotten in touch with me . i know having a family has always meant the world to her . you 're right , i do n't understand why she would isolate herself at a time like this . gwen : it just does not make any sense . ethan : but it is sheridan 's choice . we have to respect it . gwen : well , it does n't mean i have to like it , and i still can not shake the feeling that sheridan is in trouble .

eve : no . kay : but i 'm fine , dr . russell . eve : honey , you had a very difficult birth procedure . kay : yeah , but i 'm back to normal now , right ? eve : well , you 're hardly back to normal . but you are strong enough to go home . the question is , do you want to , though ? maria 's going to be hospitalized for some time . do n't you want to stay here where you can be close to her ? kay : well , miguel and i will both come back every day to see her , wo n't we ? miguel : yeah , sure . kay : so , can i go home ? eve : well , yes , but i 'm -- kay : thank you , dr . russell . i knew you 'd understand . pilar : kay , sweetie , your mother is n't here to help you get home , and i took the bus today . kay : well , i would n't want my mother to help me , anyway . but it 's ok because miguel can do it . you will help me go back to tabitha 's , wo n't you ? i mean , i 've got all these , like , gifts and flowers and stuff here , i mean , both mine and maria 's . i 'm going to need a lot of help . so you 'll stay with me for as long as it takes , right ? theresa : all right , if fox wo n't pursue me , then how am i going to get ethan to realize that he should be with me , because time is running out . and i 've got to come up with a way to get ethan to realize that he loves me and that he should spend the rest of his life with me . fox : i do n't know , whitney . i do n't think it matters how much i romance theresa . she 's always going to be in love with ethan . whitney : well , i would n't be too sure about that , fox . you are a smart , funny , great - looking guy . i think you could definitely make her forget about ethan . fox : well , it 's all academic , anyway . whitney : what do you mean ? fox : well , i 'm not going to go along with this plan . whitney : aw . that 's too bad . you know , i thought it would 've been fun working together . fox : working together ? whitney : sure . i mean , if you d r romance theresa , i could show you some tips . fox : tips ? whitney : yeah , i mean , i know her better than anyone . i could tell you all the things she likes , all the things she does n't like . i could give you all kinds of advice . we 'd work together really closely . oh , not to mention all the double - dates that we would go on , you and theresa , chad and i . you know what , you would probably get sick of seeing me . we 'd be together , like , 24/7 . fox 's voice : now , there 's a plan i could get behind -- whitney , 24/7 . gwen : i know it 's crazy . luis has the d.v.d . showing that sheridan 's in paris . but i still -- i can not kick this feeling that she 's in danger . ethan : well , i hope you 're wrong . gwen : so do i . but for her not to call ? sheridan and i have always talked about very personal things -- our joys , our fears , everything . no matter what was going on in our lives , we always made sure we had time for each other . that 's why it is bothering me so much that she has n't called since she got to paris , nonot once . ethan : well , look , it 's still possible she just needed to get away from the pressure . gwen : but , honey , that 's what i 'm talking about . she would be on the phone with me working things out . so why has n't she called ? what 's holding her back ? luis : well , i 'm going to find out who it was . beth : no , luis , wait ! luis : i 'll be right back . beth : i thought you said there was no way sheridan could get out of the basement . mrs. wallace : i never said that . you 'd better get in there . [ knock on door ] charlie : get me out of here . mrs. wallace : if i were you , i 'd stay put . get used to a confined space , huh , because luis is about to discover sheranan , and when he does , you , beth , and me , we 're going to go to prison for the rest of our lives ! luis : oh , my god . gwen : if someone told me that theresa was in los angeles right now plotting to get you , i would n't be the least bit surprised . theresa : if i do n't come up with something , i may have no choice but to give ethan up forever . fox : how long have you been standing there , man ? chad : long enough . long enough to hear exactly what 's going on .
theresa tells fox her newest plan and asks him to help her make ethan jealous to win him back . he turns her down but when whitney decides it would be a good idea and they 'd spend lots of time together he rethinks it . gwen and ethan decide something is wrong that sheridan has n't contacted them on her due date . kay does all she can to ruin charity and miguel 's night out . luis hears sheridan calling his name and is concerned so he goes to investigate .
<s>[INST] miguel : i ca n't wait for tonight , you know , the two of us getting away , finally spending some time together . charity : miguel , i 'm not sure it 's such a good idea now . miguel : you do n't want to go to the red sox game tonight ? charity : i do , i do . i -- i just do n't know if we should . miguel : but we 've been looking forward to going to this game . charity : i know . miguel : look , i talked to dr . russell , ok ? she said that maria 's stabilized and that she does n't see any reason why i ca n't get away for one evening . and besides , i 'll have my cell phone . charity : i 'm feeling guilty about takingouou away from kay and from your baby . miguel : do n't , ok ? i will always be there for them when they need me . but you 're the woman i love , and i want -- i want to be with you . tabitha : kay ? kay : tabitha . what are you doing here ? tabitha : we 're going home . we 're being released . kay : oh ! well , lucky you . oh , i 'm not getting out of here till tomorrow . and maria , they said she 's doing better , but she 's still not well enough to go home . tabitha : do you know that charity and miguel are going to the red sox game tonight ? kay : what ? no . tabitha : oh , yes . and i do n't think it 's because they 're aching to see pedro martinez . in fact , i think they 're aching for something else . and with all that beer flowing , anything could happen . they could end up under the damn bleachers . or worse , they could -- they could head off to rhode island to elope . whitney : what are you thkiking ? what kind of crazy idea have you got planned to try to get ethan back now ? theresa : how do you know i 've got a plan ? whitney : because you just said you know how to get gwen to leave ethan , and then something about him coming to your rescue ? what does that mean ? fox : dude , check out the look on theresa 's face , huh ? you know who she looks like ? she looks like lucy when she used to come up with one of her crazy ideas . chad : yeah , i 've seen that look , too . it can only mean she 's plotting to get ethan back again . the girl 's never going to learn . fox : i feel sorry for gwen . chad : yeah , me , too . i mean , it 's got to rip your heart out knowing that somebody 's after the person you love . the only thing worse than knowing that someone 's after the person you love is not knowing someone 's after the person you love . i mean , because if you do n't know , you ca n't do anything about it , you ca n't protect yourself . whitney : hello , sweetheart . fox : whitney . you look -- hmm , well , you know i 've never real b been good with words . whitney : well , you make it up in every other way that counts . fox : well , i hope so . whitney : trust me , you 're the best . and to show you how grateful i am , i thought that we would have a romantic evening at home instead of going out . fox : how did i get so lucky to have you in my life ? whitney : no , baby , i 'm the lucky one , lucky to have you in my life . i mean , to think i almost made a terrible mistake and married the wrong man . but instead , i ended up with the perfect man . chad : yo , man , i know you have some feelings for theresa , but i just do n't see you getting anywhere with her . i mean , her love for ethan 's just too strong . ethan : you know what , it 's not long till your due date . i ca n't wait for this baby to arrive . then we can finally start our lives together . i got plans for us , gwen . gwen : do you ? ethan : what 's wrong ? gwen : sweetheart , i was just thinking , today is sheridan 's due date . ethan : are you sure ? gwen : oh , yes . it 's the first thing we talked about when she got pregnant . ethan , where could she be ? is she having her baby today , right w ? w ? i just pray she 's all right . sheridan : please help . i 'm having the baby . help me , please . ugh ! ugh , i can do this . i have to do this . i owe it to my baby and to luis . ugh ! luis : stop now ? sheridan : who is that ? luis : but i 'm almost done . sheridan : luis ? am i hallucinating or is that really him ? luis : i just want to keep at it . sheridan : oh , that is luis . he came to find me ! oh , he is here . i have to get to him . ugh . luis . luis : just put these groceries in here . charlie : that 's it . open the door , luis . i 'll finally be rid of you once and for all . mrs. wallace : do n't bother , luis . we can put those away later , honey , you know ? matter of fact , we can do that tomorrow morning . luis : well , it 's no bother . i know you 're both tired , so i 'll just put these away and then i 'll leave , ok ? singer : i would hold ththe hand of the one who could lead me places and kiss the lips of the one who could sing so sweet and i would fly on the wings of the bird i knew could take me highest breathe in , breathe out you keep me alive you are the fire burning inside of me you are my passion for life whitney : oh , come on , theresa , tell me what 's going on in that crazy head of yours . what plan have you come up with to try to get ethan back now ? theresa : oh , look ! whitney : oh , god . theresa : more champagne . fox : whoo - hoo ! chad : wait , what 's going on ? whitney : oh , not a whole lot . theresa : can i talk to you for a moment ? fox : mm - hmm . chad : what was that all about ? whitney : hmm , not sure . but hey , at least they 're together , right ? chad : whitney , i do n't think this matchmaking deal 's going to work . whitney : look , you 'll see . if anyone can make theresa forget about ethan , it 's fox . i mean , i have a feeling if he wants something , he wo n't stop until he gets it . fox : hey , what , what , what do you want to talk to me about ? theresa : i have come up with a foolproof plan , ok ? i figured it all out . fox : you have , have you ? ok , ok , what exactly have you figured out ? theresa : how you 're going to help me get ethan back . gwen : i 'm worried , ethan . today is sheridan 's due date . you would think she would contact somebody . ethan : well , we 're out here in l.a. maybe she called luis or antonio . gwen : but don'yoyou think they would 've called us , especially if she had the baby ? i would think she would want me to know . i 'm sheridan 's best friend . ethan : i 'm sure she 'll be in touch . gwen : but when ? i really miss talking to sheridan . i miss the girl talk , especially now . i thought this was going to be such a wonderful time for the two of us . ethan : because you 're both pregnant . gwen : we should be sharing all the joys that mothers - to - be feel dreaming about our babies ' futures . sheridan and i have been friends practically forever and i alally need her with me during this time , and i know that she needs me , too . that 's why it is just so strange that she has not been in contact with me . ethan : it -- it is odd . gwen : ethan , when we were younger , sheridan and i used to talk on the phone forouours , about boyfriends and our futures and what it would be like to be married and have a child . and -- and now it 's happening and we 're apart . ethan : well , gwen , she did say that she needed to get away from the tension in her life and to work on the situation with luis and antonio . gwen : but to be completely and totally out of touch ? no , that is not sheridan . she is a wonderfully thoughtful and caring person . why would she completely ignore the most incredible time in my life , and would n't she wante e to share in the happiest part of her life ? she wanted to have this baby . she was so excited . you would think that her best friend would get at least one call , right ? ethan : i 'm -- i 'm not making any excuses for her , but , gwen , like i said , we 've been away . gwen : she has our cell phone numbers , ethan , plus she 's a crane . she has the capability to get in touch with anyone in the world . ethan : that 's true . gwen : i 'm just -- i 'm scared for her . i just can not shake this feeling that sheridan 's in trouble , maybe in danger even . [ sheridan groans and pants ] sheridan : luis . luis , are you there ? luis , help me . help me . ugh ! mrs. wallace : no ! oh ! luis : what 'd you do that for ? charlie : what the hell ? mrs. wallace : uh , i 'm sorry , honey . i -- i guess i just slipped . luis : right . luis : and now it 's jammed . you have a screwdriver ? beth : uh , top drawer . beth : what 's going on ? why 'd you throw the walker against the door ? we need to get luis out of here before he goes to the basement and finds sheridan about to have a baby ! mrs. wallace : you idiot ! beth : what , i 'm the idiot ? now luis is going to stay longer trying to pry open this door because of you . mrs. wallace : charlie is in the pantry ! beth : what ? mrs. wallace : she hid in there when luis showed up . beth : oh , my god . if he opens that door -- mrs . wallace : yes , she 's going to come out of there like a hellcat and tear luis ' heart out ! luis : this ought to do it . beth : um , luis , you do n't need to open the pantry , ok ? i 'll put the groceries away later . luis : it 's all right . this should just take a second . charlie : go ahead , luis , open up the door , and i 'll open you up belly to throat . kay : tabitha , i 've got to keep miguel and charity from going to that game tonight . how am i going to do that ? tabitha : well , find some excuse to keep him with you . kay : gee , thank you , that 's brilliant . what 's the excuse , tabitha , huh ? eve : and how 's my patient today ? simone : hey . eve : and you , tabitha , i understand you 're going home today . tabitha : yes , me and my little endora . we 're so excited . nurse kravitz : please help me ! i do n't want to die ! i do n't want to die ! oh , please , please ! oh ! oh ! oh , you ! you and your evil baby ! the two of you are n't normal ! it 's -- it 's like magic ! black magic ! i could 've sworn there were five bottles here before i took my break . oh ! i 'm not crazy . there 's something about that baby that just is n't right .

[ ethan sighs ] ethan : yeah . it is odd , you know , that she has n't even at least gotten in touch with me . i know having a family has always meant the world to her . you 're right , i do n't understand why she would isolate herself at a time like this . gwen : it just does not make any sense . ethan : but it is sheridan 's choice . we have to respect it . gwen : well , it does n't mean i have to like it , and i still can not shake the feeling that sheridan is in trouble . [ sheridan groans ] sheridan : oh , god , my baby 's coming . help me , luis , someone . help me and my child . beth : luis , be careful . i do n't want you to get hurt . luis : what ? beth : i do n't want any harm to come to you . luis : it 's a pantry door , beth , ok ? i do n't figure it 's going to cause me any harm . charlie : how come beth 's so concerned about luis ? she does n't want him hurt ? i 'm going to kill the son of a bitch . that 's the only thing that 'll save us . luis : there we go . tabitha : well , i 'm all ears , kay . what 's your idea ? how are you planning to keep charity and miguel apart tonight ? kay : you 'll just have to wait and see . hey , simone , could you come talk to me for a minute ? simone : what do you want ? kay : why do you sound like you 're mad at me ? simone : because you 're staring out in the corridor , watching miguel and charity like a hawk . kay : so ? simone : so , what 's going on , kay ? and do n't tell me nothing because i always know when you 're up to something . kay : if you 'll quit talking , i 'll tell you . simone : ok . i 'm listening . kay : i have a plan , and i need your help . simone : not if it involves another one of your back - stabbing hehemes . kay : oh , gee , thanks , simone . it doesn't . miguel and charity want to go to this red sox game tonight -- simone : and you 're trying to stop them from going ? kay : shh ! keep your voice down . simone : if that 's your plan , kay , forget it . i 'm not helping you . kay : sisimone , we 're best friends . simone : and when i wanted someone , did my best friend help me get him ? no . chad is all the way in california right now with whitney . so if you think that i 'm going to help you get miguel , you can forget it . kay : iningrate . tabitha : did n't go so well with simone , huh ? kay : no matter . nothing 's going to stop me from keeping miguel away from charity tonight . tabitha : that kravitz woman is starting to get under my skin . nurse kravitz : oh ! eve : nurse . what happened ? tabitha : yes . hmm . chad : i just think when it comes to theresa and fox , you should be careful . whitney : well , honey , i just want them to be happy . chad : then let them decide . look , if theresa and fox are going to be together , they 'll be together , just like we are , ok ? so please do n't interfere , all right ? you 're going to end up making it worse for everybody involved . fox : so i 'm going to help you get ethan back ? theresa : yes , that was our deal -- you help me get ethan , i 'll help you get your mystery woman . you remember ? fox : yeah , yeah , i remember , but , you know , we really have n't sat down and talked about the nuts and bolts of this whole deal thing , ok , and , you know , i got a couple of questions for you . theresa : such as ? fox : well , such as , have you forgotten that ethan 's married to gwen , they got a baby on the way , you know , and you got a child of your own ? theresa : no , no , i have n't forgotten . in fact -- i just bought this for little ethan . fox : ok . theresa : i miss him , fox . and the only thing that 's going to keep a away from little ethan is bringing him home a father . and it should be ethan . fox : theresa , you got a one - track mind . theresa : oh , come on , you said you would help me with this . now please , come on , you can do this ? fox : ok , what do i got to do ? theresa : ok , ethan said that he loves me , right ? he said that he did . he just told me that . fox : yeah , yeah , yeah , but he also told you to move on with your life and find somebody else . theresa : yeah . now , if that were true , then why would he be jealous that you might be interested in me ? fox : what ? theresa : yeah , whitney just said he said that . fox : really ? theresa : yeah . fox : imagine that . hmm , my perfect half - brother jealous of me . theresa : yeah , he is , so here 's my plan , ok ? i want you to pursue me . i mean really pursue me . i mean send me flowers , take me out on , i do n't know , romantic dates -- anything that you can come up with . fox : anything ? ththeresa : except that . i want to make ethan so crazy with jealousy that all he 'll do is think about getting me back . fox : come on , that 's kind of a tall order , do n't you think ? theresa : no , no , not at all . all you got to do is pretend like you 're in love with me and that i 'm the only girl in your heart . what do you say ? [ music plays ] singer : i could show you in a word if i wanted to a window on the world with a lovely view from close up inside a single room with an open book beside like you read in school it 's so easy believe me when you need fun i 'd do anything to turn you on anything to turn you on oh whitney : i 'm feeling kind of out of place here . all the women are so beautiful and sophisticated - looking . fox : whitney ? you 're joking , right ? are you serious ? i mean , come on , you 're the prettiest girl here . in fact , i tell you what , i 'm surprised that every single one of these women have n't run into their apartments to hide in shame now that you 've arrived . whitney : you know , you 're definitely a charmer . it 's no wonder all the girls fall in love with you . fox : i will tell you what , the only woman that i care about falling in love with me is you , whitney . i 'm going to make sure that happens . singer : i 'd do anything to turn you on fox : theresa , i 'm sorry , i ca n't do that . i 'm not going to do that to help you get ethan back . gwen : i know you probably think i 'm being overly dramatic thinking something is wrong with sheridan . ethan : no , i don't . gwen : wait , so you 've been concerned about her , too ? ethan : yeah . gwen : honey , then why did n't you say anything ? ethan : because , gwen , i did n't want you to have any more stress because of the baby . gwen : oh , ethan , come on . ethan : look , look , i would n't go so far as to say that she 's in danger , but it has struck me as so unlikely for her to run away from her problems . gwen : exactly , exactly , because sheridan is a fighter . and besides , why would she want to be alone at a time like this when she 's giving birth ? this time of a woman 's life , she wants to be surrounded by the people that she loves . ethan : i do n't know , it 's very odd . gwen : oh , god , i -- i hate to even say this , but i think i agree with luis ' first instinct . ethan : you think sheridan was kidnapped ? gwen : and is being held against her will . sheridan : please . luis , i have to make you hear me .

sheridan and i have always talked about very personal things -- our joys , our fears , everything . no matter what was going on in our lives , we always made sure we had time for each other . that 's why it is bothering me so much that she has n't called since she got to paris , nonot once . ethan : well , look , it 's still possible she just needed to get away from the pressure . gwen : but , honey , that 's what i 'm talking about . she would be on the phone with me working things out . so why has n't she called ? what 's holding her back ? luis : well , i 'm going to find out who it was . beth : no , luis , wait ! luis : i 'll be right back . beth : i thought you said there was no way sheridan could get out of the basement . mrs. wallace : i never said that . you 'd better get in there . [ knock on door ] charlie : get me out of here . mrs. wallace : if i were you , i 'd stay put . get used to a confined space , huh , because luis is about to discover sheranan , and when he does , you , beth , and me , we 're going to go to prison for the rest of our lives ! luis : oh , my god . gwen : if someone told me that theresa was in los angeles right now plotting to get you , i would n't be the least bit surprised . theresa : if i do n't come up with something , i may have no choice but to give ethan up forever . fox : how long have you been standing there , man ? chad : long enough . long enough to hear exactly what 's going on .Summarize.[/INST]theresa tells fox her newest plan and asks him to help her make ethan jealous to win him back . he turns her down but when whitney decides it would be a good idea and they 'd spend lots of time together he rethinks it . gwen and ethan decide something is wrong that sheridan has n't contacted them on her due date . kay does all she can to ruin charity and miguel 's night out . luis hears sheridan calling his name and is concerned so he goes to investigate .</s>

brooke argues that it 's happened and all they can do now is accept it and move past it . thomas had to do this to get the attention of the press . brooke does n't believe thomas meant to hurt him or get back at him for anything . what really frightens her is that ridge is buying into taylor 's version of her as seductress . he ca n't understand why these things keep happening to brooke . taylor rants to thomas and claims that she knows brooke would go along with his stunt . brooke did n't care ; she would go along with anything . taylor is worried about thomas , but he wo n't let her turn this back to being brook 's fault . stephanie is so disappointed in brooke . she thought they had shared so much these last few weeks and there was some hope for her , but leopards can not change their spots . she calls ridge and he says he will be over . brooke wants to go , but he tells her that is not a good idea right now . he needs time to clear his mind .

caitlin : okay . jackie : what are you doing ? caitlin : i 'm sorry , mrs. marone . i just -- i have to be clear . jackie : all right . i 've explained to you , dear , that the paternity results were not affected by the computer problems . nicky is the father of brooke 's baby . caitlin : you got confirmation ? jackie : yes . i was in touch with the lab . caitlin : wait -- you said you found out at dr. paxon 's funeral . jackie : yes . that 's right . at the funeral . i talked to the man from the lab at the funeral . caitlin : and he redid the tests ? jackie : he confirmed the results . caitlin : well , did you ask him how ? jackie : oh , caitlin . i came here to drop something off for eric forrester . i do n't have time to go through the third degree , thank you . caitlin : okay . i did n't mean to upset you . jackie : i 'm not upset , dear . caitlin : i was n't accusing you , mrs. marone . jackie : well , i should hope not . caitlin : thomas is my friend . his family is having a really hard time with this . jackie : well , it 's been difficult for everyone . caitlin : i know . it 's just -- thomas has been so honest with me . i could n't stand being dishonest with him . sally : it 's all right . they 're all gone . amber : now can we talk about this ? deacon : there 's nothin ' to talk about . i 'm leaving . amber : because we got a little criticism ? deacon : because that 's all you 're gon na get with me around here . amber : oh , that 's bull ! deacon : were you not here when eric called the collection a disaster ? amber : it needs some work . sally : you ca n't ignore the opinions of a man like eric forrester . he 's known for his instincts . deacon : come on . you 've got as much experience in this business as eric does . hell , you liked the designs , did n't you ? sally : yes , i did . but i am a risk taker . eric is n't . deacon : you know what ? i 'm gon na tell you what he is . he 's a hypocrite . he voted brooke out of the company for doing the same thing to him that he 's doing to us ! amber : okay . then go talk to him . tell him how you feel . maybe he 'll understand . deacon : oh , gosh . maybe if i bare my soul and ask him real nicely he 'll give us a second chance . forget that . sally : all right , leave it to me , will you ? leave it to me . i 'll deal with eric . he and i have always been very simpatico . deacon : sally , look -- you wan na go do something , that 's fine . just leave me out of it . amber : no ! you ca n't quit . this was your idea . deacon : do n't you get it ? this guy 's never gon na give me a break . amber : well , not if you give up and walk away ! deacon : hey , look , as long as i 'm a part of this company , my hands are tied , amber ! which means so are yours . amber : so , what are you going to do , huh ? deacon : i 'll tell you what i 'm gon na do . i 'm gon na get the hell out from underneath his thumb ! sally : what are you talkin ' about , tough guy ? where do you think you are ? this is a tough game , right ? there 's always gon na be somebody higher up the ladder ! deacon : well , you know what , sally ? i 'm not done climbing . all right ? you , more than anyone , know you need power . you need leverage . you need strength . and more than that , you need respect . amber : and respect has to be earned ! deacon : well you know what ? you 're nuts if you think i 'm gon na grovel to eric forrester ! that ai n't gon na happen . amber : yeah ? and what are we gon na do , huh ? deacon : well , you better make a success out of this company because i still own a third of it . amber , i 'm sorry . sally -- look , i know that there 's something out there for me . all i got ta do is keep my eyes open . and one of these days , i 'm gon na be the guy who 's in charge calling the shots . caitlin : thomas has really opened up to me lately about his family . especially his mother . jackie : hmm . and what does this have to do with the paternity test ? caitlin : if there was a chance it was wrong , i could n't keep it from him . jackie : no one 's asking you to lie , caitlin . caitlin : but if i kept it a secret -- jackie : oh , there is no secret . how many times do i have to explain this to you ? you have to forget about the paternity test . it 's not an issue . caitlin : so , what dr. paxson said about the computer problem -- jackie : there is no problem . caitlin : you told me that dr. paxon wanted to redo the test , but she did n't know if the results were right . jackie : well , i do know that the results are right . look , i know you 're worried about your friend . the child 's paternity has been very difficult for ridge and the children to accept . but there is no question about the test results . please understand , caitlin . whatever dr. paxon said , it was wrong ! there 's no doubt nicky is that baby 's father .
jackie arrived for breakfast – very hung over . she mumbled something about having a dream . jackie showed up at work and heard thomas talking about his dad and brooke with caitlin . caitlin again tried to get jackie to tell the truth . deacon overhears them talking and finds out about the paternity test .

[ groans ] look , my dad is up there right now , and i 'm sure he 's not going to let her do anything that 's not in her best interest . the plus side is when this is all over , we 're finally going to know if marlena 's innocent or guilty . this has just been so hard , you know ? on my family and friends , especially my little sister belle . she 's been taking it really tough . but this way they 're going to question marlena about each individual murder , and she 'll either admit her guilt , or they 'll realize that she 's innocent . i 'd sure like to know what happened to my grandfather , what killed him . i thought you wanted that , too . nicole : of course i do . brady : good . let 's go find out . brady : nicole , come on .

[ atomizer puffing ] tessa : oh , that 's so nice ! mariah : yeah , i love it . that 's incredible . lola : wow . it 's my new favorite thing . abby : [ chuckles ] well , my mom will be very happy to hear that . tessa : okay , now let 's not forget something blue . lola : [ chuckles ] mariah : ohh !

[ giggles ] lola : [ gasps ] abby : when you want your own , be sure to drop a few hints to your husband , and i will make sure he gets it right . lola : you guys have already made this the most incredible day of my life . thank you so much . i -- i really love you guys . mariah : do n't you dare cry . because i can not replicate whatever the glam squad did . [ laughter ] come on . ashley : look , you have a point . i know you 've seen a million examples of how to make a marriage go wrong . traci : yes . and not just in our family . it 's everywhere . ashley : yeah . traci : so , you take all of those mistakes , and you learn from them and do the opposite . kyle : [ scoffs ] easier said than done . traci : okay . okay . look at it this way -- you and lola have already survived events that would destroy most relationships . ashley : that 's true . that 's true . i mean , you 've already loved her through sickness and health . traci : through overprotective brothers , through a marriage to someone else . ashley : and she 's been building an empire since the very first day you laid eyes on her , right ? i mean , crazy hours . you lived through that . kyle : [ sighs ] traci : and the two of you flourished in the process . you 've been together through sunshine and rain . kyle : but -- but how do you make that last forever ? traci : well , you take it day by day . marriage is n't something that 's set in stone , kyle . you ca n't neglect it or ignore it and expect it 's just gon na work itself out . marriage is a living thing , and your love keeps it alive . ashley : and you already know this , but , obviously , commitment , right ? marriage takes commitment and -- and attention . and you 're -- you 're definitely gon na have your challenges . traci : plenty . ashley : and you 're gon na have your disagreements . traci : yes . ashley : but i would advise that you just meet them head - on . and if you 've got a choice between being right and being happy , please , please choose happiness . kyle : [ snorts softly ] traci : and if you get invited to an argument , do n't show up . ashley : [ laughs ] yes , do n't show up . you need to learn to let things go . forgive and -- and move on . traci : and always remember -- remind each other that , out of all the people that ever were and ever will be , you have chosen each other . you belong to each other . cherish it . ashley : and talk to her . right ? about everything . i mean , the good , the bad , everything in between . and , of course , you need to listen to her , 'cause -- [ traci laughs ] well , you 're gon na be her rock . traci : and she will be yours . ashley : yeah . traci : oh , honey . you 're both so young yet . you 're going to change in ways you ca n't even imagine . so create memories that will last a lifetime , and traditions you can pass down to your children . ashley : not that you have to have children . traci : yes , they do . ashley : well , i mean , in case they don't . but , i mean , you do n't have -- kyle , you do n't have to rush it , because you and lola both have dreams , and you 're gon na help each other reach them . you 're gon na be encouraging each other . traci : honey ? do you love her ? kyle : [ sighs ] with all my heart . more than i ever thought i could love anyone . from the moment we met , it -- she 's everything . ashley : just tell her that all the time . the things you say . the things you do for her . traci : give her your best , and you 'll get so much back in return . ashley : and just remember -- you 're always gon na have the love and support of your very flawed family . [ traci and kyle laugh ] forever . both of you . kyle : ohhh , what would i do without you ? [ laughs ] traci : oh , honey , that is something you 'll never have to worry about .

bill tells steffy that he knows who sabotaged the brooke tribute . he learned after the fact . she wants the name . he tells her it is his assistant , justin barber , and liam was involved as well . justin came by and realized that liam had struck gold so he was able to retrieve the conversation and edit it into the tribute . she wants to talk to justin , but bill said he is traveling right now . he assures her that has already lowered the boom on him . he says he knows this is upsetting to her as to him as well . but he can make it better by talking to her father and clearing her name . oliver kisses hope again , but she pulls away and say it will never change . all she sees is him and her mother together that way . nothing will change that . being outside for her first time on the wall with any of her friends to see is not the way she envisioned their first sex . he is not the man she thought he was and she must not be the girl that he was expecting . he begs her not to do this over some stupid mistake . he just needs another chance . they can just go away and start over . she asks him to stop . he is making this so much worse . she wants him to leave . stephanie asks liam to repeat himself . he says he is ridge 's son . ridge tells him that he has one minute to explain himself . liam says his mother was a model here in l.a. but ridge says she did not work at forrester so that does not make him his dad . he punches him in the jaw and tells stephanie to call security and have liam thrown out .

[ scene_break ] david : it 's christmas . so i gave krystal a present . how thoughtless of me . j.r. : yeah , a present , huh ? more like baiting a trap , huh ? david : krystal and i created babe and then we lost her . i mean , look at you , all worried that i 'm going to take little a ? what if you were really gone , j.r. ? huh ? j.r. : shut your mouth . david : what if your son were gone for good ? that 's where i am ! that 's where krystal is , in a hole so deep , we may never get out . so if i want to share a picture or a memory or a story about our daughter , i 'm damn well going to do it ! j.r. : a story , a memory -- you did n't even know her , man ! most of her life , she was a complete stranger to you . david : she was my daughter ! and , no , i was n't there , but i was going to make it up to her , and we had the time until you took it away ! yeah , that 's right . that 's right , you want to talk about guilt , huh ? all those things that eat you alive ? why do n't we talk about that ? j.r. : i said stop ! david : you killed her , j.r. ! your daddy rang his bell , and you came running , like pavlov 's slobbering dog . j.r. : shut up ! david : i 'll tell you something , you want me to own up , huh ? you want me to confess my sins ? fine , but you 're going to have to go first ! j.r. : yeah -- yeah ? david : what are you going to do , junior , hmm ? go ahead , i dare you .

[ krystal sighs ] krystal : with these , all right ? plans for something i 'm thinking about building on the comeback site . i do n't know anything about blueprints , and i asked for david 's advice . opal : the man 's a surgeon . he 's not an architect . krystal : i know that , opal , but with tad out of town -- opal : what , you had nobody else you could turn to ? oh , come on , krystal , you got family and friends up the wazoo . krystal : do i ? opal : yeah . krystal : that would be nice . friends who do n't judge me and friends who -- opal : understand ? krystal : yes . opal : i 'm sorry . i get it , krystal , i really do . the man was babe 's father , and he 's hurting , too , and it 's only natural that you would want to be around him . but it 's high time that you admit it . krystal : fine . opal : fine what ? krystal : i am drawn to david . and i just -- i do n't know what to do about it .

[ krystal sighs ] krystal : it 's not like that , opal . he 's really just trying to help me . what is that ? hmm ? did kathy leave something over at your house ? opal : no , that 's mine . i 'm -- i 'm moving in for awhile . somebody 's got to look out for you , krystal , help you to stay away from david hayward . and since tad is n't around , the job falls to me . that 's right . so if you want out of here , you got to pass through me first . [ scene_break ] zach : what was that ? why ca n't i check on reese and bianca ? ryan : i -- i just -- i -- it 's probably better just to let them figure it out on their own . greenlee : whatever they 're dealing with , it 's about way more than the wedding . ryan : yeah . zach : did reese say something or bianca say something ? greenlee : no , no , no , i just got that feeling . i mean , we 've all been there . it 's not like you and kendall have n't had your issues . and would you really want a million outside opinions when you 're trying to figure those things out ? zach : those opinions usually come from you . greenlee : yes , but not anymore , right ? ryan : yeah , right , right , absolutely . yeah , it 's just probably better to leave this all alone . greenlee : they love each other , and they love their daughter . zach : yeah ? i know that better than anyone . greenlee : well , then you also know that they 'll work it out . zach : without my interference . greenlee : without your interference . [ scene_break ] david : so tell me , junior , what are you planning to do with my big , old nasty confession , huh ? go to the police ? or maybe you 're planning on playing this closer to home , right ? [ david chuckles ] david : have you even looked at yourself in the mirror lately ? i mean , come on , let 's be honest here . who 's going to take anything you have to say seriously ? j.r. : just because i 've had a few drinks . david : oh , a few ? you 're kidding , right ? you 've been drinking for two solid days . you 're a sniveling , slobbering mess who has no right raising a child . i mean , come on , let 's face it , junior , huh ? you 're no good for little a , just like you were no good for babe . her life was ruined way before that tornado hit down . j.r. : babe was happy . david : oh , yeah , right , sure . yeah , she had a few smiles before she was wiped off the face of the earth . but what about before that , huh ? what about the rest ? the months , the years ? you made her life a living hell , and you know it . j.r. : shut up ! shut up , shut up , shut up ! [ j.r. shoots at the ceiling ] david : feeling better ? i 'm guessing not really . because no matter what you do , or where you try to hide , your guilt will always be there as a reminder , junior , that while babe was here , you could have been so much better . so is that on you , or on god , that she was taken so soon ? i guess we 'll never know .

[ scene_break ] rosanna : well , if you are feeling guilty , okay , do n't . you were right to tell me that craig tried to frame you for rose 's murder . paul : that 's not what i 'm talking about . rosanna : and if i had been a sensible person and tossed him out then , i think everything would be different . paul : yeah , well , that still would n't change the truth about cabot . rosanna : it 's the truth about craig , that 's the problem . i knew his track record , everybody knew his track record . you have no idea how many times he lied to me , how much he manipulated lucy and aaron -- he kidnapped your mother during the whole monte carlo disaster . but did i listen ? no , i was there . i just bailed him out . forget reason , forget logic . when it came to craig , there was none . paul : well , i 'm not sorry you 're not with craig . i 'm not . but i am sorry that it all happened this way . rosanna : just -- i knew there was a problem with cabot from the beginning . and i did n't say anything . he just brought him home , out of the blue . and every time i would ask a question , he would n't -- he would n't answer . i guess part of it is my fault , because when i -- when i tried to push , i would just look at this sweet little man 's beautiful face , and everything else just seemed so unimportant . paul : you know , most people do n't question miracles , rosanna , most people just enjoy them . and look at you . that 's what you 're doing . we need to think about the future now , okay ? we need to find new identities ; we need to find a new place that we can call home . rosanna : this is so surreal . paul : we need to get our hands on as much cash as we can as soon as we can . now , i 've filed a plan that will get us to the next refueling point , but by the time we get there , we really -- we should have a final destination in mind . rosanna : i can go anywhere . anywhere but canada . paul : believe me ; i do n't want to go to canada . rosanna : because if i have to think about cabot 's birth mother , i will lose what is left of my mind . paul : well , then , maybe what you should do is think about how much you love your son . maybe what you should do is think about how you 're gon na be there for the rest of his life for him . rosanna : i have a right to be his mother , do n't i ? it 's not all about biology , is it ? paul : what do you want me to say ? rosanna : all this time , i -- i thought he had been given up willingly . now that i know that he was n't -- paul : does it really change anything ? rosanna : i tell myself it does n't matter . it does n't matter ; that i love cabot , loving him makes him mine . but it 's not right . it 's just not right . and to keep trying to think so is just lying to myself .

[ scene_break ] rosanna : well , if you are feeling guilty , okay , do n't . you were right to tell me that craig tried to frame you for rose 's murder . paul : that 's not what i 'm talking about . rosanna : and if i had been a sensible person and tossed him out then , i think everything would be different . paul : yeah , well , that still would n't change the truth about cabot . rosanna : it 's the truth about craig , that 's the problem . i knew his track record , everybody knew his track record . you have no idea how many times he lied to me , how much he manipulated lucy and aaron -- he kidnapped your mother during the whole monte carlo disaster . but did i listen ? no , i was there . i just bailed him out . forget reason , forget logic . when it came to craig , there was none . paul : well , i 'm not sorry you 're not with craig . i 'm not . but i am sorry that it all happened this way . rosanna : just -- i knew there was a problem with cabot from the beginning . and i did n't say anything . he just brought him home , out of the blue . and every time i would ask a question , he would n't -- he would n't answer . i guess part of it is my fault , because when i -- when i tried to push , i would just look at this sweet little man 's beautiful face , and everything else just seemed so unimportant . paul : you know , most people do n't question miracles , rosanna , most people just enjoy them . and look at you . that 's what you 're doing . we need to think about the future now , okay ? we need to find new identities ; we need to find a new place that we can call home . rosanna : this is so surreal . paul : we need to get our hands on as much cash as we can as soon as we can . now , i 've filed a plan that will get us to the next refueling point , but by the time we get there , we really -- we should have a final destination in mind . rosanna : i can go anywhere . anywhere but canada . paul : believe me ; i do n't want to go to canada . rosanna : because if i have to think about cabot 's birth mother , i will lose what is left of my mind . paul : well , then , maybe what you should do is think about how much you love your son . maybe what you should do is think about how you 're gon na be there for the rest of his life for him . rosanna : i have a right to be his mother , do n't i ? it 's not all about biology , is it ? paul : what do you want me to say ? rosanna : all this time , i -- i thought he had been given up willingly . now that i know that he was n't -- paul : does it really change anything ? rosanna : i tell myself it does n't matter . it does n't matter ; that i love cabot , loving him makes him mine . but it 's not right . it 's just not right . and to keep trying to think so is just lying to myself .

[ scene_break ] logan : ahem -- look , there are two ways -- ow -- that you can read this , all right ? you either stayed with me because you think i 'm some sort of loser that would n't make it on their own , or you stayed with me because you have the hots for me . lulu : huh . for , like , 20 seconds , you 're almost a human being , and then you go right back to neanderthal . logan : you know what ? you make up reasons to fight with me because you have feelings for me you 're not willing to admit . lulu : no , no , no -- there are so many shades of gray that you have n't even considered . first of all , when i am in trouble , people help me , so i am just paying it forward . secondly , you and i are becoming friends as much as you would allow . and third , i can admit my feelings any time i want . logan : uh - huh . i 'm waiting . lulu : what , now ? logan : huh . lulu : okay . i have come to realize that you are not totally obnoxious all the time . logan : uh - huh . lulu : and there are moments that i think you could be worthwhile . logan : and you want me , in that way ? lulu : huh . wow -- the one thing i know about guys is the more they talk about it , the less they deliver , and if you think shoving your big , fat ego in my face is sexy , you have a lot to learn about women .

olivia : hi . i got some good news . i hope . i 'm officially relieving you of your duties as my birth coach . cassie : oh , well , you finally came to your senses and you 're giving phillip a shot , huh ? olivia : as my birthing coach . nothing more . cassie : right . he 's wearing you down . olivia : no , no , no . he has just bent over backwards trying to prove that he deserves a place in this baby 's life . and i ca n't argue with that . i agree he does . cassie : okay . what about a place in your life ? olivia : that 's not up for negotiation . cassie : oh , come on . just admit it . you want to raise this baby with him . olivia : i admit it . all right . but not for me for this baby . this baby needs two parents . i see that now more than ever . cassie : why ? what 's going on ? olivia : well , whether i like it or not , this baby is a spaulding and that comes with a whole set of problems that can only be made worse if phillip and i are on opposite sides , right ? i hate to admit this . i do n't want this child to turn out like lizzie . felecia : well , welcome to my office for the day . lizzie : and why are we in here ? felecia : broken pipe . they 've assured it 'll be fixed before the end of the day . phillip : ( clearing throat ) i wish people were as easy to fix as broken pipes . lizzie : and so now i 'm broken ? phillip : oh , honey , that 's not what i meant by that . felecia : lizzie , do you feel that your father thinks you need to be repaired ? lizzie : all i know is that daddy likes to fix things . since you 're not getting the job done , he 's come to give it his shot . felicia : you agree that your father could join us . lizzie : yeah , i do n't know what i was thinking . i mean , i 'm outnumbered . it 's two against one . i really do n't like my odds , okay . phillip : now wait a minute . no , you are not walking out that door . now we are going to start to close this distance between us right now . salerno : it 's okay . nice to see you , daniel . you 've been missed . danny : i wish i could say the same , vinnie . salerno : how 's business ? danny : oh , business has never been better . or was when you agreed to stay out of town . it seems that you 've got a little problem staying out of town . salerno : well , new york keeps me busy , danny . you know , springfield holds no interest for me now that you 've made it all squeaky clean . danny : right . so then what 's this , vinnie ? amateur photography is your new hobby ? salerno : tony 's a bad boy . danny : so bad you offered him a job ? salerno : these things happen . i 'm like you . i 'm more accepting . danny : i do n't accept anyone messing with my family . salerno : i know you protect your own , but understand something . i feel the same way about eden . i think we can work something out . i 'm not the only one that wants to keep tony and eden apart . bill : well , it looks like someone did their homework . michelle : yep , like i used to do yours . hey , it looks like i still am . bill : no , no , no . no , no , no , no . michelle : ah , the lewis filing system . bill : never fails . all right , look i had some of my guys come down here and check out this space . now we can go state of the art like the radio stations do it , or we can even go more high tech like nasa . now if you check your e - mail every once in awhile you 'll see the mark - up i did for our website , okay . it 's got some chat rooms in there , i m capabilities . it 's ... it 's ... michelle : wow , okay , i guess i underestimated you . that sounds amazing . you are amazing . bill : that is quite true . eden : hi . bill : hey . eden : so did i interrupt ? so , this is harley angels , huh ? you know i always wanted to be one of charlie 's . michelle : yeah , me too . so you must be awfully proud of yourself . eden : what ? michelle : the health center . i mean , was n't that partly your idea ? it was a good one . why , what did you think i meant ? bill : um , i just got to clear the air here . i know that tony and marah broke up , okay . and for some reason danny seems to think that you are responsible . so could you please tell michelle that he is just overreacting and that you did n't have nothing to do with it . eden , tell her you had nothing to do with breaking tony and marah up . marah : mom ! dad ! i 'm home . well , i guess you 're not . uncle rusty , when are you going to remember that i moved ? marah : hey , you scared me . tony : sorry . shayne gave me a key . he was having trouble with the starter on his car and well , i did n't want to let him down just because we 're not together . i just came by to pick up these . you could put that down now . marah : i 'm sorry . i know you were n't going to hurt me . tony : no , i would die first . marah : tony , we can not keep going over this . it 's not going to change anything . tony : but pretending that you do n't love me does ? marah : i do love you . but we ca n't be together . when i saw the pictures of the girl , it just reminded me of everything . and i ca n't live each day of my life wondering if something might set you off or not . tony : that is not going to happen . marah : tony , we have to make a clean break . tony : marah , okay , i know you think that that you 've made up your mind . but if you just listen to me one last time , you 'll realize that you 're making a mistake . michelle : eden , you do n't owe me any answers . and anyway i 've got to get going . so ... eden : no . no stay . we should clear this up . look i know that danny does n't like me and i know that he never will . and i know that you do n't think i 'm good enough for bill . so ... bill : whoa . wait a minute now . danny and michelle know more than anyone that someone can turn their life around , okay . eden : yeah , well , maybe they do n't know that it 's harder to turn your life around than they think . bill : what are you saying ? eden : what i 'm saying is it is my fault that they broke up . i mean i did n't mean to do it , but i did . michelle : that really is my cue to go . eden : look , salerno did n't like that tony was helping me to clear my name during the murder investigations . and when salerno does n't like something , he shows it in a big way . bill : okay . eden : so he sent me some photos . michelle : what kind of photos ? eden : tbey were pictures of tony with some girl that he met in chicago . and in the pictures it look like he had beaten her to pulp . michelle : what ? eden : look , i know . they may have been fixed . i do n't know . maybe they were real , but apparently they did the job . bill : so you showed these photos to marah ? eden : no , i was showing them to tony so that he could know that salerno was messing with him . i never meant for marah to see them . bill : then how did she see them ? eden : it was an accident . michelle : an accident . eden : it was ! look , i had the photos in my purse and marah bumped into me and then these photos were everywhere and she saw everything and i tried to explain it to her , but she did n't understand . look , bill , you 've got to believe me . come on , i did not mean to show her those photos . bill : like hell i do . danny : so what are you telling me , vinnie ? do you want eden back ? take her . she 's not even with tony . right . you do n't want eden . bill : then what do i want ? salerno : the same thing that you wanted when you sent your boys into springfield after telling me you vacated . you 're testing me . you 're saying in you 're not so subtle way that even though you 're physically off my turf , you 're not . not really . salerno : tony 's the one that showed up on my course though . danny : and you 're the one who showed up at my house when my wife was there . salerno : beautiful woman , your wife . we did n't get to spend much time together , but i saw enough to know that you 're a very lucky man . danny : you 're right . i am . i 'm sure you feel the same way about your family . salerno : i do . danny : yeah . you know , i think your sister made a smart move when she moved her family out of the city . yeah , i think little vinnie is going to really like growing up in a small town . it 's a much better environment for a kid . salerno : do n't even go there , man . danny : i already have . i know where they live , where the kids go to school , what time they 're tucked in at night . salerno : is that a threat ? danny : you know , vin , i do n't like doing business this way . but if this is how you 're going to play , yeah , i 'll sink to your level . i 'm seeing that the best interest in my cousin stays healthy . very healthy . enjoy your meal . cassie : look , i got to tell you that tammy has tried to become friends with lizzie , but it 's been a real struggle for her . olivia : lizzie ... lizzie 's a really troubled kid . i do n't imagine it 'll be easy to be her friend . cassie : well , if she 's about to do something or if she 's done something , can you tell me . i do n't feel like bailing tammy out of jail again . olivia : no , i think tammy 's okay . she 's kind of focused on me . she 's never going to come to turns with the fact that her father and i are having a baby and that he 's going to be a part of my life . cassie : so he is going to be a part of your life . olivia : he 's going to be a part of my baby 's life . the only role he 's going to play in my life is my baby 's father . look , if i was n't letting him into my life would n't he be coming with me to find out if this baby is a boy or a girl ? cassie : oh , well , you know , he still could . and okay , so what happened to wanting it to be a surprise ? olivia : well , i do n't care what my decorator says about purple being the new yellow . i ca n't keep buying two of everything . besides , the baby kicked yesterday , and i asked him to kick again . once for boy , twice for girl . i 'm one of these people . i have to know . cassie : i think there 's another reason . olivia : i hate purple . cassie : everyday this baby gets more real . and so do your feelings for phillip . lizzie : what did you guys do plan this in advance ? lizzie : what did you guys do which one is the good cop and which one is the bad ? phillip : honey , this is not an interrogation ? i 'm ... i 'm trying to find a way to get things back to the way they used to be . there was a time when you felt like you could tell me just about anything . lizzie : yeah , well , nothing is like the way it used to be . felicia : and what 's changed all of that ? lizzie : you really believe that if i tell you every ugly thought that i 've ever had that i 'll just suddenly be okay ? felicia : no . but it might make you feel just a little bit better . lizzie , what do you think has changed everything in your life ? lizzie : it used to be that we were like other families . you know , the kind that does n't have to make appointments to see each other . like cassie and tammy and her brothers . they have dinner together every night and it 's not scheduled . they just do it because they love each other . phillip : honey , you and your mom are together every ... lizzie : yeah , but , dad , you 're not there . phillip : i know that . and i 'm sorry . but , honey , all you have to do is call me . i can come over for dinner anytime . lizzie : dad , that 's not the only thing . phillip : well , then what else ? lizzie : you do n't want to know . phillip : yes , i do . lizzie : it seems like i 'm like this toy that ... you 're going to think i 'm so stupid . phillip : honey , i 'm not going to think anything you tell me is stupid . lizzie : it 's like i 'm this toy that you and mom both made and i 'm your first and you just want to take it everywhere you go . it might even be your favorite . it 's like when i do something wrong , the second i screw up , you 're just ready to put me back on the shelf and never play with me again . phillip : honey , you ca n't possibly believe that . oh , honey . phillip : come here . come here . you listen to me . i love you . and it does n't matter what you do or say or think or feel , i will still always love you . because you 're my little girl and you 're going to be that forever whether you like it or not . lizzie : i 'm just scared , daddy . phillip : scared of what ? honey ... felicia : go ahead , lizzie . lizzie : i do n't know . felicia : honey , it 's time for you to be honest with your father . lizzie : you gave up on my grandpa . and grandpa gave up on you and he traded you in for gus . i mean , it happens all the time in our family . phillip : but , honey , those are entirely different situations . i could never give up on you . lizzie : yeah , well , when the baby gets here , he 's ... he 's never done anything wrong or made any mistakes and then you 're going to look at me and just see how screwed up i am . the baby 's never made any mistakes , never done anything wrong , never been locked up , never had to have his head shrunk . and i hate that . i hate the baby and he 's not even here . how can you love someone like me , dad ? how could you love a ... phillip : come here . let me tell you something . you 're forgetting something very important , honey . you were the most perfect little baby girl . i remember the first time i held you in my arms . i was so afraid that i would break you . and i knew that you were the best thing that had ever happened to me . you changed my life . lizzie : is that good ? phillip : it 's more than good . it 's wonderful . it 's amazing . but i 'll tell you something else . as overwhelmingly perfect as you were then , i love you so much more now . because babies are beautiful . but you know what ? they ca n't do the things that we can do . they ca n't go to the movies , they ca n't order pizza . they ca n't just hang out with each other , because we love each other the way we can . you are always going to be my best girl . lizzie : i really want to believe that . phillip : well you better believe that . you better believe that . felicia : all right . i think you two have had enough for one day . why do n't you go do some of that hanging out that you 've mentioned ? phillip : come on , sweetheart . felicia : this was really good work today . but it 's just the beginning though . we 'll do this again next week . phillip : okay . lizzie : can i say something real quick ? felicia : sure . lizzie : we did n't talk about olivia , and i know that dad really wants me to be friends with her , but i 'm not sure i can do that . and i 'm not sure what happens if i can't . felicia : phillip , i think lizzie needs to know that she 's not going to lose you if she ca n't accept olivia . phillip : honey , you 're not going to lose me . all i 'm asking you to do is work with me as far as olivia is concerned , okay ? lizzie : i 'll try . phillip : okay . felicia : and we 'll talk more about olivia next session . phillip : okay . bill : you know this pattern is getting a little old . eden : bill , do n't do this . i 'm telling you the truth . bill , i do n't care what they think . i just care what you think . what ? michelle : i just ca n't imagine what seeing those pictures must have done to marah . i mean , no wonder she moved out . bill : yeah , you and your friend salerno really did a number on her . yeah . eden : salerno is not my friend , okay ? look , this is the way he operates , okay . he showed me those pictures , because he knew exactly what it would do to tony . michelle : yeah , and you just had to show them to marah , right ? eden : would you stop this ? look , i screwed up , okay . but i did n't mean to show those pictures to marah . i did n't want tony and marah to break up . bill , come on . do n't do this . do n't let salerno get in between us , too . michelle : i 'll call you about the help - line , okay . bill : yeah . eden : come on , say something . anything . bill : you know what ? it does n't really matter what i want . what do you want now that tony 's free ? tony : do you remember me , marah ? do you remember that guys that walked through the door of that club and fell for you the second he laid eyes on you ? that guy was trouble . and that 's what you were looking for . marah : i was looking for a way to rebel against my parents and there you were . tony : yeah , but we found something more . you found the good in me . i mean before you my life as just one big fight , but you showed me there was more to it . i changed because of you . i mean you stood by me through tough times . that whole mess with catalina . there was no one else . i guess you regret that now . marah : i do n't regret any of it . tony : i do i regret hurting you . and when i think about how i hurt you , if i could take it back , i would . marah : i know . i know . but you can't . tony : listen , after i hurt you my life was just ... was a mess , okay ? but i fought my way back . and i fought my way back to you . and you forgave me . and we were happy . were n't we ? marah : yeah . i can't . i can't . bill : ( laughs ) oh , you ... you 're something . eden : yeah , something good or something bad ? bill : all right , i 'm not going to share you . i 'm going to share you with anybody . eden : i do n't want tony . i only want you . ( both laughing ) bill : this is what i want you to do . i want you to take a little time , think about what you just said . and if you want to be with me , you know where to find me . cassie : thank you . hey . what are you doing ? edmund : did you know that you could order seeds from a catalog ? cassie : i did . but i did n't know that you knew that . edmund : well , i wanted to get a jump start on the garden at the farm . but unfortunately you ca n't order cows or chickens through a catalog . i checked . cassie : whoa , mr . ambassador . why do n't we worry about planning before we worry about cows and chickens . besides we have so much other things to do . you know , we have to rebuild the barn , the farmhouse . there are experts that you know can help us with this . i know this plant guy at the university whose going to come show us what to plant and when . edmund : cassie , i do n't want to consult an expert . i want to do this on our own . i can plant ... i can get one of those planting for dummies book . come on . come on , i can do this . cassie : oh , i believe you can . i just ... i got this flash of you in overalls . edmund : hmm . how did i look ? cassie : well , they were designer , of course , but you looked really cute . edmund : oh , that 's nice to know . cassie , i ... i know this is n't exactly my natural habitat , but i am having a wonderful time . cassie : i ca n't believe how ... how easy it is to be with you . edmund : you know , i 've been accused of many things in the course of my life , but never being easy . cassie : ( laughs ) no , i look at all of our ... well my friends . and they 're struggling to stay together . or apart . and i know with you it 's just ... it 's good . it 's fun . it 's easy . edmund : well , it 's like growing tomatoes . cassie : tomatoes . edmund : tomatoes . that 's why so many people grow them . you just add a little water and oh . cassie : oh , my . ( laughs ) well , that 'll be one way to get the garden to grow . edmund : yeah . phillip : hey , is everything all right ? olivia : everytuq i just took a tour of the maternity ward . the birthing instructor recommended that . felicia : phillip , excuse me . why do n't we decide on an appointment for next week . phillip : oh , right . excuse me . lizzie : you 're just here to check up on me . olivia : i 'm glad to see you kept you appointment , lizzie . lizzie : yeah , i had no choice . it 's called blackmail . olivia : i want this to help you . i was just saying to lizzie , i think it 's great that the two of you are seeing felecia . phillip : yeah . olivia : yeah . phillip : you do ? lizzie : oh , you know what ? we should probably let olivia get back to her tour , right ? olivia : i 'm on my way out . it 's okay . phillip : actually so are we . here , i 'll take that for you . olivia : no , it 's okay . it 's not heavy . phillip : a lot of pink . does that mean what i think ? olivia : i just spoke with dr . sedwick , and i was going to tell you in class . it 's a girl . you 're going to have another daughter . phillip : so you 're sure ? we 're having a little girl ? olivia : yeah . lizzie : ( laughs ) wow , a little sister . phillip : yeah . and she 's going to need a big sister to show her the ropes . lizzie : oh , i really doubt olivia wants her to be anything like me . olivia : actually , i think it 's great growing up with a sister . phillip : yeah . hey , let 's celebrate . olivia : you know what ? i need to take a raincheck , because i 'm really tired . you two enjoy your time together and i 'll see you tomorrow . phillip : okay . lizzie : look , you do n't have to hide your happiness on my account . i have to go . phillip : honey . ( knock at the door ) danny : hey . marah : hey , danny . danny : can i come in ? marah : yeah . danny : so , what 's going on , marah ? i mean , eden accidentally on purpose showed you some pictures and that 's it with you and tony . marah : it 's for the best . danny : come on , you 're obviously unhappy about it . so is tony . how is that for the best ? marah : look , danny , i appreciate that you 're trying to help , but this is between me and tony . and i have a lot of work to do , so ... danny : marah . hiding behind your work is not going to help . believe me , i know . look , you and tony have been through a lot . and i know that you probably do n't want to fight anymore , but you have to . marah : no . no , i don't . danny : so what ? that 's it ? eden august wins ? marah : maybe . maybe she understands tony a way that i ca n't . eden : dear bill , i want you to know that i meant what i said earlier . tony is my friend and that 's all he is . but , bill , you could be the best thing that 's ever happened to me . and all i want is the chance to be the same to you . love eden . tony , what are you doing here ? tony : i need you , eden . cassie : i see a reality show in your future . edmund : bite your tongue , woman . cassie : you think it 's possible for us to have the best of both worlds ? we could live at the farm and then have room service delivered to us whenever we want ? edmund : no , no , no . you see i vote ... i vote for a working farm where the kids do n't just play , they work . they get their hands dirty . as a matter of fact , i think it 's time i got my hands dirty , too . cassie : oh , really ? edmund : mm - hmm . cassie : i have to remind you of that when you 're mucking out the stalls . edmund : as long as there 's a pond . cassie : for fishing ? edmund : no , so we could swim with absolutely nothing on . cassie : i think we could sell that reality show . edmund : hmm . cassie : ( laughs ) olivia : get a room ! cassie : i 'm getting a farm . olivia : oh . cassie : so what 's the verdict ? olivia : ( laughs ) cassie : oh , a girl ! edmund : congratulations . olivia : thank you . cassie : oh , my god , a little girl . olivia : thank you . cassie : is n't that wonderful ? olivia : it is . i really hope it is . felicia : lizzie ? lizzie : i just had to sit for a minute . felicia : i thought you and your dad were going to go out together ? lizzie : yeah , i did n't really feel up to it . i just sent him on his way . he and olivia are having a little girl . their own little baby girl . felicia : and you would rather it been a boy . lizzie : i would rather it not ... i really do n't want to talk about this anymore , okay . felicia : honey , this does not change the fact that you are still your father 's first daughter . lizzie : but i 'm not his little girl . felicia : having a little sister is n't so bad . it could be fun . you could teach her things . she can really depend only on you . lizzie ? danny : you ca n't let a bunch of pictures make you forget what you know about tony . marah : it 's not just the pictures . it 's where you come from . it 's a place that i do n't understand and i do n't want to understand and it 's a part of tony that i just ... i ca n't handle . i ca n't live my life wondering if he 's going to snap from day to day and i wo n't . danny : well , you do n't have to . tony 's changed . he 's not the same messed up , angry kid that we all knew . he 's not . he 's grown into a good man . and a lot of that is due to you . marah : but that angry kid is still in there inside of him somewhere , just like with ben . danny : no , marah , tony is not ben . he 's not . he recognized he had a problem and he worked on it . marah : i do n't know if that 's enough . danny : i know that you love him , marah . and he loves you very much . marah : yes . and love solves everything . danny : sometimes it does . marah : look , loving tony is easy , but that does n't make it right . danny : i feel like ... well , i think you 're making a big mistake . and i hope it is n't too late before you realize it . marah : i know what i 'm doing . danny : marah , i feel like you 're looking for some kind of , i do n't know , darkness that is n't there . marah : it is there . and it 's always been there . i just did n't want to see it before . and i am not going to look the other way anymore . i can't . danny : okay . okay . just think about it . eden : you need me . tony : i have to make marah understand . eden : look , i ca n't help you . she wo n't listen to me . tony : she 's fixated on those damn pictures . i have to prove to her that i never hurt that woman . eden : yeah , but you said that you do n't remember . tony : i have to find her . i have to ... i have to make her tell me the truth . now you use to do this for a living . you used to set up men for salerno . eden : you want me to find out who she is ? tony : you are the only one who can . eden : but i thought we said we were n't going to see each other after ... tony : i have no other choice . this is the only way that i could win marah back . now i helped you when you needed help with salerno . it 's your turn . eden : i 'm in . olivia : next on `` guiding light `` ... beth : you and olivia and this on again , off again relationship . phillip : look , i 'm not going to discuss my relationship with olivia with you . lizzie : why do you always think i 'm hiding some big secret from you or something ? beth : i do n't know , lizzie . are you ?

<s>[INST] olivia : hi . i got some good news . i hope . i 'm officially relieving you of your duties as my birth coach . cassie : oh , well , you finally came to your senses and you 're giving phillip a shot , huh ? olivia : as my birthing coach . nothing more . cassie : right . he 's wearing you down . olivia : no , no , no . he has just bent over backwards trying to prove that he deserves a place in this baby 's life . and i ca n't argue with that . i agree he does . cassie : okay . what about a place in your life ? olivia : that 's not up for negotiation . cassie : oh , come on . just admit it . you want to raise this baby with him . olivia : i admit it . all right . but not for me for this baby . this baby needs two parents . i see that now more than ever . cassie : why ? what 's going on ? olivia : well , whether i like it or not , this baby is a spaulding and that comes with a whole set of problems that can only be made worse if phillip and i are on opposite sides , right ? i hate to admit this . i do n't want this child to turn out like lizzie . felecia : well , welcome to my office for the day . lizzie : and why are we in here ? felecia : broken pipe . they 've assured it 'll be fixed before the end of the day . phillip : ( clearing throat ) i wish people were as easy to fix as broken pipes . lizzie : and so now i 'm broken ? phillip : oh , honey , that 's not what i meant by that . felecia : lizzie , do you feel that your father thinks you need to be repaired ? lizzie : all i know is that daddy likes to fix things . since you 're not getting the job done , he 's come to give it his shot . felicia : you agree that your father could join us . lizzie : yeah , i do n't know what i was thinking . i mean , i 'm outnumbered . it 's two against one . i really do n't like my odds , okay . phillip : now wait a minute . no , you are not walking out that door . now we are going to start to close this distance between us right now . salerno : it 's okay . nice to see you , daniel . you 've been missed . danny : i wish i could say the same , vinnie . salerno : how 's business ? danny : oh , business has never been better . or was when you agreed to stay out of town . it seems that you 've got a little problem staying out of town . salerno : well , new york keeps me busy , danny . you know , springfield holds no interest for me now that you 've made it all squeaky clean . danny : right . so then what 's this , vinnie ? amateur photography is your new hobby ? salerno : tony 's a bad boy . danny : so bad you offered him a job ? salerno : these things happen . i 'm like you . i 'm more accepting . danny : i do n't accept anyone messing with my family . salerno : i know you protect your own , but understand something . i feel the same way about eden . i think we can work something out . i 'm not the only one that wants to keep tony and eden apart . bill : well , it looks like someone did their homework . michelle : yep , like i used to do yours . hey , it looks like i still am . bill : no , no , no . no , no , no , no . michelle : ah , the lewis filing system . bill : never fails . all right , look i had some of my guys come down here and check out this space . now we can go state of the art like the radio stations do it , or we can even go more high tech like nasa . now if you check your e - mail every once in awhile you 'll see the mark - up i did for our website , okay . it 's got some chat rooms in there , i m capabilities . it 's ... it 's ... michelle : wow , okay , i guess i underestimated you . that sounds amazing . you are amazing . bill : that is quite true . eden : hi . bill : hey . eden : so did i interrupt ? so , this is harley angels , huh ? you know i always wanted to be one of charlie 's . michelle : yeah , me too . so you must be awfully proud of yourself . eden : what ? michelle : the health center . i mean , was n't that partly your idea ? it was a good one . why , what did you think i meant ? bill : um , i just got to clear the air here . i know that tony and marah broke up , okay . and for some reason danny seems to think that you are responsible . so could you please tell michelle that he is just overreacting and that you did n't have nothing to do with it . eden , tell her you had nothing to do with breaking tony and marah up . marah : mom ! dad ! i 'm home . well , i guess you 're not . uncle rusty , when are you going to remember that i moved ? marah : hey , you scared me . tony : sorry . shayne gave me a key . he was having trouble with the starter on his car and well , i did n't want to let him down just because we 're not together . i just came by to pick up these . you could put that down now . marah : i 'm sorry . i know you were n't going to hurt me . tony : no , i would die first . marah : tony , we can not keep going over this . it 's not going to change anything . tony : but pretending that you do n't love me does ? marah : i do love you . but we ca n't be together . when i saw the pictures of the girl , it just reminded me of everything . and i ca n't live each day of my life wondering if something might set you off or not . tony : that is not going to happen . marah : tony , we have to make a clean break . tony : marah , okay , i know you think that that you 've made up your mind . but if you just listen to me one last time , you 'll realize that you 're making a mistake . michelle : eden , you do n't owe me any answers . and anyway i 've got to get going . so ... eden : no . no stay . we should clear this up . look i know that danny does n't like me and i know that he never will . and i know that you do n't think i 'm good enough for bill . so ... bill : whoa . wait a minute now . danny and michelle know more than anyone that someone can turn their life around , okay . eden : yeah , well , maybe they do n't know that it 's harder to turn your life around than they think . bill : what are you saying ? eden : what i 'm saying is it is my fault that they broke up . i mean i did n't mean to do it , but i did . michelle : that really is my cue to go . eden : look , salerno did n't like that tony was helping me to clear my name during the murder investigations . and when salerno does n't like something , he shows it in a big way . bill : okay . eden : so he sent me some photos . michelle : what kind of photos ? eden : tbey were pictures of tony with some girl that he met in chicago . and in the pictures it look like he had beaten her to pulp . michelle : what ? eden : look , i know . they may have been fixed . i do n't know . maybe they were real , but apparently they did the job . bill : so you showed these photos to marah ? eden : no , i was showing them to tony so that he could know that salerno was messing with him . i never meant for marah to see them . bill : then how did she see them ? eden : it was an accident . michelle : an accident . eden : it was ! look , i had the photos in my purse and marah bumped into me and then these photos were everywhere and she saw everything and i tried to explain it to her , but she did n't understand . look , bill , you 've got to believe me . come on , i did not mean to show her those photos . bill : like hell i do . danny : so what are you telling me , vinnie ? do you want eden back ? take her . she 's not even with tony . right . you do n't want eden . bill : then what do i want ? salerno : the same thing that you wanted when you sent your boys into springfield after telling me you vacated . you 're testing me . you 're saying in you 're not so subtle way that even though you 're physically off my turf , you 're not . not really . salerno : tony 's the one that showed up on my course though . danny : and you 're the one who showed up at my house when my wife was there . salerno : beautiful woman , your wife . we did n't get to spend much time together , but i saw enough to know that you 're a very lucky man . danny : you 're right . i am . i 'm sure you feel the same way about your family . salerno : i do . danny : yeah . you know , i think your sister made a smart move when she moved her family out of the city . yeah , i think little vinnie is going to really like growing up in a small town . it 's a much better environment for a kid . salerno : do n't even go there , man . danny : i already have . i know where they live , where the kids go to school , what time they 're tucked in at night . salerno : is that a threat ? danny : you know , vin , i do n't like doing business this way . but if this is how you 're going to play , yeah , i 'll sink to your level . i 'm seeing that the best interest in my cousin stays healthy . very healthy . enjoy your meal . cassie : look , i got to tell you that tammy has tried to become friends with lizzie , but it 's been a real struggle for her . olivia : lizzie ... lizzie 's a really troubled kid . i do n't imagine it 'll be easy to be her friend . cassie : well , if she 's about to do something or if she 's done something , can you tell me . i do n't feel like bailing tammy out of jail again . olivia : no , i think tammy 's okay . she 's kind of focused on me . she 's never going to come to turns with the fact that her father and i are having a baby and that he 's going to be a part of my life . cassie : so he is going to be a part of your life . olivia : he 's going to be a part of my baby 's life . the only role he 's going to play in my life is my baby 's father . look , if i was n't letting him into my life would n't he be coming with me to find out if this baby is a boy or a girl ? cassie : oh , well , you know , he still could . and okay , so what happened to wanting it to be a surprise ? olivia : well , i do n't care what my decorator says about purple being the new yellow . i ca n't keep buying two of everything . besides , the baby kicked yesterday , and i asked him to kick again . once for boy , twice for girl . i 'm one of these people . i have to know . cassie : i think there 's another reason . olivia : i hate purple . cassie : everyday this baby gets more real . and so do your feelings for phillip . lizzie : what did you guys do plan this in advance ? lizzie : what did you guys do which one is the good cop and which one is the bad ? phillip : honey , this is not an interrogation ? i 'm ... i 'm trying to find a way to get things back to the way they used to be . there was a time when you felt like you could tell me just about anything . lizzie : yeah , well , nothing is like the way it used to be . felicia : and what 's changed all of that ? lizzie : you really believe that if i tell you every ugly thought that i 've ever had that i 'll just suddenly be okay ? felicia : no . but it might make you feel just a little bit better . lizzie , what do you think has changed everything in your life ? lizzie : it used to be that we were like other families . you know , the kind that does n't have to make appointments to see each other . like cassie and tammy and her brothers . they have dinner together every night and it 's not scheduled . they just do it because they love each other . phillip : honey , you and your mom are together every ... lizzie : yeah , but , dad , you 're not there . phillip : i know that . and i 'm sorry . but , honey , all you have to do is call me . i can come over for dinner anytime . lizzie : dad , that 's not the only thing . phillip : well , then what else ? lizzie : you do n't want to know . phillip : yes , i do . lizzie : it seems like i 'm like this toy that ... you 're going to think i 'm so stupid . phillip : honey , i 'm not going to think anything you tell me is stupid . lizzie : it 's like i 'm this toy that you and mom both made and i 'm your first and you just want to take it everywhere you go . it might even be your favorite . it 's like when i do something wrong , the second i screw up , you 're just ready to put me back on the shelf and never play with me again . phillip : honey , you ca n't possibly believe that . oh , honey . phillip : come here . come here . you listen to me . i love you . and it does n't matter what you do or say or think or feel , i will still always love you . because you 're my little girl and you 're going to be that forever whether you like it or not . lizzie : i 'm just scared , daddy . phillip : scared of what ? honey ... felicia : go ahead , lizzie . lizzie : i do n't know . felicia : honey , it 's time for you to be honest with your father . lizzie : you gave up on my grandpa . and grandpa gave up on you and he traded you in for gus . i mean , it happens all the time in our family . phillip : but , honey , those are entirely different situations . i could never give up on you . lizzie : yeah , well , when the baby gets here , he 's ... he 's never done anything wrong or made any mistakes and then you 're going to look at me and just see how screwed up i am . the baby 's never made any mistakes , never done anything wrong , never been locked up , never had to have his head shrunk . and i hate that . i hate the baby and he 's not even here . how can you love someone like me , dad ? how could you love a ... phillip : come here . let me tell you something . you 're forgetting something very important , honey . you were the most perfect little baby girl . i remember the first time i held you in my arms . i was so afraid that i would break you . and i knew that you were the best thing that had ever happened to me . you changed my life . lizzie : is that good ? phillip : it 's more than good . it 's wonderful . it 's amazing . but i 'll tell you something else . as overwhelmingly perfect as you were then , i love you so much more now . because babies are beautiful . but you know what ? they ca n't do the things that we can do . they ca n't go to the movies , they ca n't order pizza . they ca n't just hang out with each other , because we love each other the way we can . you are always going to be my best girl . lizzie : i really want to believe that . phillip : well you better believe that . you better believe that . felicia : all right . i think you two have had enough for one day . why do n't you go do some of that hanging out that you 've mentioned ? phillip : come on , sweetheart . felicia : this was really good work today . but it 's just the beginning though . we 'll do this again next week . phillip : okay . lizzie : can i say something real quick ? felicia : sure . lizzie : we did n't talk about olivia , and i know that dad really wants me to be friends with her , but i 'm not sure i can do that . and i 'm not sure what happens if i can't . felicia : phillip , i think lizzie needs to know that she 's not going to lose you if she ca n't accept olivia . phillip : honey , you 're not going to lose me . all i 'm asking you to do is work with me as far as olivia is concerned , okay ? lizzie : i 'll try . phillip : okay . felicia : and we 'll talk more about olivia next session . phillip : okay . bill : you know this pattern is getting a little old . eden : bill , do n't do this . i 'm telling you the truth . bill , i do n't care what they think . i just care what you think . what ? michelle : i just ca n't imagine what seeing those pictures must have done to marah . i mean , no wonder she moved out . bill : yeah , you and your friend salerno really did a number on her . yeah . eden : salerno is not my friend , okay ? look , this is the way he operates , okay . he showed me those pictures , because he knew exactly what it would do to tony . michelle : yeah , and you just had to show them to marah , right ? eden : would you stop this ? look , i screwed up , okay . but i did n't mean to show those pictures to marah . i did n't want tony and marah to break up . bill , come on . do n't do this . do n't let salerno get in between us , too . michelle : i 'll call you about the help - line , okay . bill : yeah . eden : come on , say something . anything . bill : you know what ? it does n't really matter what i want . what do you want now that tony 's free ? tony : do you remember me , marah ? do you remember that guys that walked through the door of that club and fell for you the second he laid eyes on you ? that guy was trouble . and that 's what you were looking for . marah : i was looking for a way to rebel against my parents and there you were . tony : yeah , but we found something more . you found the good in me . i mean before you my life as just one big fight , but you showed me there was more to it . i changed because of you . i mean you stood by me through tough times . that whole mess with catalina . there was no one else . i guess you regret that now . marah : i do n't regret any of it . tony : i do i regret hurting you . and when i think about how i hurt you , if i could take it back , i would . marah : i know . i know . but you can't . tony : listen , after i hurt you my life was just ... was a mess , okay ? but i fought my way back . and i fought my way back to you . and you forgave me . and we were happy . were n't we ? marah : yeah . i can't . i can't . bill : ( laughs ) oh , you ... you 're something . eden : yeah , something good or something bad ? bill : all right , i 'm not going to share you . i 'm going to share you with anybody . eden : i do n't want tony . i only want you . ( both laughing ) bill : this is what i want you to do . i want you to take a little time , think about what you just said . and if you want to be with me , you know where to find me . cassie : thank you . hey . what are you doing ? edmund : did you know that you could order seeds from a catalog ? cassie : i did . but i did n't know that you knew that . edmund : well , i wanted to get a jump start on the garden at the farm . but unfortunately you ca n't order cows or chickens through a catalog . i checked . cassie : whoa , mr . ambassador . why do n't we worry about planning before we worry about cows and chickens . besides we have so much other things to do . you know , we have to rebuild the barn , the farmhouse . there are experts that you know can help us with this . i know this plant guy at the university whose going to come show us what to plant and when . edmund : cassie , i do n't want to consult an expert . i want to do this on our own . i can plant ... i can get one of those planting for dummies book . come on . come on , i can do this . cassie : oh , i believe you can . i just ... i got this flash of you in overalls . edmund : hmm . how did i look ? cassie : well , they were designer , of course , but you looked really cute . edmund : oh , that 's nice to know . cassie , i ... i know this is n't exactly my natural habitat , but i am having a wonderful time . cassie : i ca n't believe how ... how easy it is to be with you . edmund : you know , i 've been accused of many things in the course of my life , but never being easy . cassie : ( laughs ) no , i look at all of our ... well my friends . and they 're struggling to stay together . or apart . and i know with you it 's just ... it 's good . it 's fun . it 's easy . edmund : well , it 's like growing tomatoes . cassie : tomatoes . edmund : tomatoes . that 's why so many people grow them . you just add a little water and oh . cassie : oh , my . ( laughs ) well , that 'll be one way to get the garden to grow . edmund : yeah . phillip : hey , is everything all right ? olivia : everytuq i just took a tour of the maternity ward . the birthing instructor recommended that . felicia : phillip , excuse me . why do n't we decide on an appointment for next week . phillip : oh , right . excuse me . lizzie : you 're just here to check up on me . olivia : i 'm glad to see you kept you appointment , lizzie . lizzie : yeah , i had no choice . it 's called blackmail . olivia : i want this to help you . i was just saying to lizzie , i think it 's great that the two of you are seeing felecia . phillip : yeah . olivia : yeah . phillip : you do ? lizzie : oh , you know what ? we should probably let olivia get back to her tour , right ? olivia : i 'm on my way out . it 's okay . phillip : actually so are we . here , i 'll take that for you . olivia : no , it 's okay . it 's not heavy . phillip : a lot of pink . does that mean what i think ? olivia : i just spoke with dr . sedwick , and i was going to tell you in class . it 's a girl . you 're going to have another daughter . phillip : so you 're sure ? we 're having a little girl ? olivia : yeah . lizzie : ( laughs ) wow , a little sister . phillip : yeah . and she 's going to need a big sister to show her the ropes . lizzie : oh , i really doubt olivia wants her to be anything like me . olivia : actually , i think it 's great growing up with a sister . phillip : yeah . hey , let 's celebrate . olivia : you know what ? i need to take a raincheck , because i 'm really tired . you two enjoy your time together and i 'll see you tomorrow . phillip : okay . lizzie : look , you do n't have to hide your happiness on my account . i have to go . phillip : honey . ( knock at the door ) danny : hey . marah : hey , danny . danny : can i come in ? marah : yeah . danny : so , what 's going on , marah ? i mean , eden accidentally on purpose showed you some pictures and that 's it with you and tony . marah : it 's for the best . danny : come on , you 're obviously unhappy about it . so is tony . how is that for the best ? marah : look , danny , i appreciate that you 're trying to help , but this is between me and tony . and i have a lot of work to do , so ... danny : marah . hiding behind your work is not going to help . believe me , i know . look , you and tony have been through a lot . and i know that you probably do n't want to fight anymore , but you have to . marah : no . no , i don't . danny : so what ? that 's it ? eden august wins ? marah : maybe . maybe she understands tony a way that i ca n't . eden : dear bill , i want you to know that i meant what i said earlier . tony is my friend and that 's all he is . but , bill , you could be the best thing that 's ever happened to me . and all i want is the chance to be the same to you . love eden . tony , what are you doing here ? tony : i need you , eden . cassie : i see a reality show in your future . edmund : bite your tongue , woman . cassie : you think it 's possible for us to have the best of both worlds ? we could live at the farm and then have room service delivered to us whenever we want ? edmund : no , no , no . you see i vote ... i vote for a working farm where the kids do n't just play , they work . they get their hands dirty . as a matter of fact , i think it 's time i got my hands dirty , too . cassie : oh , really ? edmund : mm - hmm . cassie : i have to remind you of that when you 're mucking out the stalls . edmund : as long as there 's a pond . cassie : for fishing ? edmund : no , so we could swim with absolutely nothing on . cassie : i think we could sell that reality show . edmund : hmm . cassie : ( laughs ) olivia : get a room ! cassie : i 'm getting a farm . olivia : oh . cassie : so what 's the verdict ? olivia : ( laughs ) cassie : oh , a girl ! edmund : congratulations . olivia : thank you . cassie : oh , my god , a little girl . olivia : thank you . cassie : is n't that wonderful ? olivia : it is . i really hope it is . felicia : lizzie ? lizzie : i just had to sit for a minute . felicia : i thought you and your dad were going to go out together ? lizzie : yeah , i did n't really feel up to it . i just sent him on his way . he and olivia are having a little girl . their own little baby girl . felicia : and you would rather it been a boy . lizzie : i would rather it not ... i really do n't want to talk about this anymore , okay . felicia : honey , this does not change the fact that you are still your father 's first daughter . lizzie : but i 'm not his little girl . felicia : having a little sister is n't so bad . it could be fun . you could teach her things . she can really depend only on you . lizzie ? danny : you ca n't let a bunch of pictures make you forget what you know about tony . marah : it 's not just the pictures . it 's where you come from . it 's a place that i do n't understand and i do n't want to understand and it 's a part of tony that i just ... i ca n't handle . i ca n't live my life wondering if he 's going to snap from day to day and i wo n't . danny : well , you do n't have to . tony 's changed . he 's not the same messed up , angry kid that we all knew . he 's not . he 's grown into a good man . and a lot of that is due to you . marah : but that angry kid is still in there inside of him somewhere , just like with ben . danny : no , marah , tony is not ben . he 's not . he recognized he had a problem and he worked on it . marah : i do n't know if that 's enough . danny : i know that you love him , marah . and he loves you very much . marah : yes . and love solves everything . danny : sometimes it does . marah : look , loving tony is easy , but that does n't make it right . danny : i feel like ... well , i think you 're making a big mistake . and i hope it is n't too late before you realize it . marah : i know what i 'm doing . danny : marah , i feel like you 're looking for some kind of , i do n't know , darkness that is n't there . marah : it is there . and it 's always been there . i just did n't want to see it before . and i am not going to look the other way anymore . i can't . danny : okay . okay . just think about it . eden : you need me . tony : i have to make marah understand . eden : look , i ca n't help you . she wo n't listen to me . tony : she 's fixated on those damn pictures . i have to prove to her that i never hurt that woman . eden : yeah , but you said that you do n't remember . tony : i have to find her . i have to ... i have to make her tell me the truth . now you use to do this for a living . you used to set up men for salerno . eden : you want me to find out who she is ? tony : you are the only one who can . eden : but i thought we said we were n't going to see each other after ... tony : i have no other choice . this is the only way that i could win marah back . now i helped you when you needed help with salerno . it 's your turn . eden : i 'm in . olivia : next on `` guiding light `` ... beth : you and olivia and this on again , off again relationship . phillip : look , i 'm not going to discuss my relationship with olivia with you . lizzie : why do you always think i 'm hiding some big secret from you or something ?

jared : i am sorry , tess . jared : gwen , hi . gwen : hey , jared , it 's -- it 's really good to see you . jared : likewise . gwen : um , i 'm looking for ethan . have you seen him ? jared : so your husband went awol , and the first place you check is to see if he is here with theresa ? gwen : yeah , i guess old habits die hard . jared : well , you 're in luck . he 's not . from what i hear , you do n't ever have to worry about them hooking up again . theresa said ethan made it very clear that they 'd never be a couple . gwen : yeah , that 's what he told me , and i believe him . i just really hope theresa takes him on his word this time . and if she does , you know , you two can pick up where you left off . jared : gwen , uh -- gwen : jared , after just a couple days , i guarantee you theresa will be so into you again , i mean , ethan will be a distant memory . jared : that 's probably not going to happen . gwen : why ? jared : because i am leaving harmony . gwen : wait , you -- you ca n't . jared : well , theresa knew it was going to happen . that 's my letter of resignation , so -- gwen : wait , jared , ok , you ca n't leave harmony , and that 's just -- i mean , that 's all there is to it . ethan : why , gwen ? why does jared have to stay ? [ scene_break ] theresa 's voice : miguel 's got to be around here somewhere . fortune teller : excuse me , young lady . would you like to have your fortune told ? the cards never lie . theresa : sorry , i do n't really believe in that kind of thing . fortune teller : you used to . theresa : excuse me ? fortune teller : the town carnival back in 1999 . it was then a fortune teller who predicted you would marry a crane . that prediction came true . theresa : and how did you know that ? fortune teller : it is the cards . they can see both the past and the future . theresa : maybe later . fortune teller : do n't you want to know how things turn out ? theresa : what things ? fortune teller : your future with the man you love , the man you just lost . theresa : how did you know -- fortune teller : but he loves you still but is bound to another woman -- his wife . theresa : gwen . it 's gwen and ethan . [ scene_break ] tabitha : that 's right , endora . you enjoy your snack while mommy finishes arranging these damn appetizers , and then we 'll go out back and enjoy the festivities . tabitha : well , i did n't want to upset you , but i think i saw charity here earlier -- right here in our very own home . tabitha : actually , no , i was -- i was hoping that my eyes were playing tricks on me , but if they were n't and charity is back here in harmony , then -- then all heaven could break loose , broiling us in the process .

fox worked hard to keep kay from telling him she 's dumping him for miguel , but it was jessica that really saved his bacon . she stormed into tabitha 's yard , drunk as a skunk , and berated her sister , blaming her for all the bad things that she 's done because kay let ivy run their mother off . she threw in a couple of hearty slaps , too . fox used the reprieve to run and find charity so she could make her presence known to miguel and kay . paloma , who rescued kay from jessica with noah 's help , then went on to try to get noah to pay attention to her . they had a good chat , with her throwing herself at him with every word , but he seemed happy they are just good friends . tabitha was running herself ragged , trying to get kay 's bridal shower up and running , and having endora remember it 's thanksgiving only made things worse .

[ scene_break ] jake : mm . ooh . [ yawns ] [ door opens ] elizabeth : hey . jake : hey . elizabeth : i can not believe you 're awake . jake : ah . well , i 'm up . elizabeth : what time did you come to bed last night ? jake : oh , 3 : 30 , 4 : 30 , i do n't know . elizabeth : oh , you must be exhausted . jake : i 'm fine . nothing a cup of coffee could n't fix . oh , thank you . that 's so nice of you . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] how 's the roof ? jake : oh , it 's good . it 's good . i think it 's all patched up . i think it 'll be fine until a professional can look at it . elizabeth : oh , thank you . i knew that branch needed to come down . i should 've taken care of it . jake : mm . you 've been busy . it 's okay , and besides , it 's really not that big of a deal . elizabeth : oh , wrestling a tree in the middle of the night -- no big deal . jake : not for me . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jake : get the kids off to school ? elizabeth : and i remembered to sign cameron 's permission slip for his field trip next week . jake : did you ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . jake : did you get it into his backpack ? elizabeth : his lunchbox . that way i know he will see it . jake : you are good . nicely done . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] the boys were bummed they could n't hang out with you this morning . apparently , your eggs trump my cereal any day . jake : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : did aiden leave this in here ? so much for my lectures on putting their toys away . jake : it 's -- it 's weird . i just had a dream about that thing . elizabeth : about this ? reliving your childhood memories ? jake : [ chuckles ] no , not exactly . you and i were here . we were playing with this kid and his motorcycle . elizabeth : aiden ? jake : no , that 's the weird part . it was n't -- it was n't aiden . it was sam 's son . [ scene_break ] sam : wait a minute . rosalie martinez , as in nina 's old nurse , rosalie ? sabrina : she 's michael 's assistant now . sam : oh , wow , from nurse to executive assistant . that 's quite a leap , do n't you think ? sabrina : well , yeah , it would be , but she was never really a nurse . sam : huh ? sabrina : rosalie was lying the entire time she was working for nina , and i have a feeling she 's still lying now . [ scene_break ] michael : you told me that nina refused to sell the shares that ned gave him . rosalie : yeah . i mean , i -- i tried to convince her , but nina would n't budge . like i said , we did n't exactly part on the best of terms . but i swear , michael , i did everything in my power to try to convince her . michael : i 'm sure you did . it 's just ... franco came to see me yesterday . he was furious . convinced that i owed him money . rosalie : why would he think that ? michael : well , according to franco , nina did sell those elq shares ... to you . [ scene_break ] franco : remember when i said that i was going to confront nina ? dr. obrecht : i remember everything you say and do . franco : well , i went to her hotel room , `` egg salad `` in hand , and she busted it over my head . dr. obrecht : that vindictive schlampe . franco : i 'm guessing `` schlampe `` is a not - nice word ? dr. obrecht : i told you to stay away from her . franco : yeah , i know . but someone needed to show her that ric lansing only married her for her money . dr. obrecht : did she thank you for showing her the error of her ways ? jump into your arms ? divorce ric on the spot ? did she pledge her undying love to you ? franco : not exactly . [ scene_break ] ric : i 'm sorry . did you just say that you own 11 1/2 % of elq ? nina : `` owned `` -- past tense . yeah . ric : oh ? nina : franco got the shares from ned in exchange for us keeping a secret that olivia had . ric : well , those shares are worth a fortune . nina : oh , yeah , they sure are . ric : you sold them ? for ... how much ? nina : uh ... not sure . but i 'll tell you something . there were a lot of stacks of cash involved , that 's for sure . ric : wow . and where are those stacks now ? nina : well , with part of it , i used it to pay the bill that i owed olivia . that 's why you have n't seen her around nagging us , right ? i just did n't think it was fair for you to take responsibility for , you know , what franco and i racked up when i was single . ric : yeah , but , i mean , all the cash is n't gone , right ? nina : oh , no . part of it is in the bank . ric : [ sighs ] thank god . [ chuckles ] nina : why `` thank god `` ? i thought you were n't interested in my money . [ scene_break ] franco : nina has taken up permanent residence in lala land . she thinks that ric married her for her sparkling personality and that the whirlwind nuptials had nothing to do with the reeves fortune . dr. obrecht : denial is a powerful thing . franco : yeah , it is . and i have tried everything that i can think of to try and get her to see the truth . i -- i even threatened her with jail time . dr. obrecht : how did you do that ? franco : oh , with the help of your son , actually . nathan brought nina in for kidnapping a kid -- avery quartermaine . dr. obrecht : i believe it 's `` aj `` now . franco : they should pick a name and stick to it . dr. obrecht : but nina did not confess ? franco : oh , god , no . i made that whole thing up . dr. obrecht : and nathan went along with it ? franco : oh , yeah , he hates the idea of ric being with nina as much as i do , if not more so . and it was going beautiful , liesl , it really was . i mean , when faced with the choice between a jail cell and an annulment , nina 's so - called marriage was about to implode . dr. obrecht : until ? franco : until nina called our bluff , and then your son chickened out , 'cause he 's a yellow - bellied coward . he may -- he may call himself a cop and walk around with a badge and a gun , but he did n't have what it takes to lock his sister up for one measly night . dr. obrecht : nathan can be too compassionate for his own good . i do not know from where he gets it . franco : well , not from you . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] and certainly not from his vater . franco : nathan is useless . dr. obrecht : i urge you to rephrase immediately . franco : in this particular situation . and i 'm fresh out of ideas . i know that there 's a way to get nina to see the truth . i just do n't know what it is . dr. obrecht : maybe i do . [ scene_break ] sabrina : franco showed up here last night ranting and raving . sam : well , i mean , that 's par for the course for franco . sabrina : yeah , i guess , but this time he actually had a reason . nina sold his elq shares , and he was not happy about it . [ scene_break ] rosalie : wait , franco said that nina sold me the shares ? michael : and that it was n't her right , because they were half his , so he wanted half the money . [ scene_break ] sabrina : michael was taken completely off guard . sam : yeah , well , that 'll happen when someone storms into your home . sabrina : well , yeah , but not just because of that . those shares -- rosalie specifically told michael that nina refused to sell . [ scene_break ] michael : it 's just really strange , you know , because what franco was saying is the complete opposite from what you told me . rosalie : i mean , yeah , that is -- that is really strange . um ... the only thing i can think is that maybe nina lied to franco . [ scene_break ] sabrina : michael 's first thought was that nina lied to franco . sam : okay , well , what were you thinking ? sabrina : i think it 's equally possible that rosalie is lying to michael . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i mean , why would n't nina lie to franco and say that she did n't have the shares anymore ? you know , she 's probably trying to get him off her back . especially now that she 's done with that psycho and married to someone else . [ scene_break ] ric : i do n't care about your money . i do care about my wife , though . we 've already established that i 've not been around much lately , and the thought of somebody using my absence to take advantage of you , that just does n't sit well with me . molly : hey , dad . ric : molly , hi . sweetheart . oh , i 'm so glad to see you . oh , you finally get a chance to meet my wife , nina . nina : hey . you told her the good news ? mm - hmm . molly : yeah , he told me the news , all right . and fyi , we 've already met . nina is the one who ruined sam 's relationship with silas . nina : oh , well , in all fairness , he was my husband at the time . molly : okay , well , in all fairness , they thought you were dead . nina : she 's got spunk , that one . ric : [ chuckles ] that 's a -- a word for it . nina : yeah . well , listen , i -- i just want you to know that i 've done some work on myself and apologize for any pain that i inflicted on anyone . [ clears throat ] molly : to my sister ? nina : um ... well , no , to silas , but i -- i supposed i should apologize to your sister , samantha , and anything that i did , it -- it was n't personal . molly : [ laughs ] okay , nina . nina : listen . hey ? hey ? call me `` mom . `` [ scene_break ] jordan : look , i know you 're not happy with me at the moment , but i 'm still your mother , and i want to help you . so , please , no judgments , i promise . i 'm just -- just here to listen . tj : okay , well , i guess i do have one thing to say . jordan : okay . tj : congratulations . your big promotion . that must be your reward for screwing over shawn . jordan : will you please just tell me what happened ? why did dante arrest you ? tj : why do you care ? jordan : why do i ... ? why do you think ? tj : 'cause you 're the hot - shot commissioner now . you 're probably just worried that i 'll embarrass you . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you threatening me ? sloane : no , i 'm just pointing out facts . you helped me fix the mayoral election . now ... if that fact were to come to light , not only would it tarnish your royal reputation , could land you in jail . i 'd hate to see that happen . nikolas : [ chuckles ] right . sloane : so , i thought i 'd do you the courtesy of talking to you first . nikolas : cut the crap , sloane . we both know you ca n't expose me without exposing yourself . you have no intention of coming forward . so , just tell me what you really want . [ scene_break ] jake : danny and i were playing with this motorcycle , talking about how fast we could make it go . and you said something like , `` wonder where he gets that from ? `` like he was my kid . elizabeth : well , dreams are supposed to confuse us , right ? i mean , mine never make any sense . jake : yeah , i guess so . i do n't know . [ sighs ] this one was just out there , you know ? elizabeth : like when cameron dreamed that he was ... the host of his own tv show ? [ chuckles ] jake : his own `` mr . fix it `` show . what 's so out there about that ? he and aiden were helping me every step of the way when i fixed the washer and dryer . elizabeth : and the garage door opener and aiden 's bike and the bathroom window . you know , i did n't ask you to stay here , because you 're good with a toolbox . jake : you did n't ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jake : no . i like spending time with those guys . elizabeth : well , they like it , too . you 've gone above and beyond when it comes to them . jake : look , it 's all temporary . i just have to find a job . that way , i can pay for my own place . elizabeth : there 's no rush . the boys love having you here . and so do i . so , stop worrying . jake : how do you suppose i do that ? elizabeth : well , i could tell you , but it would probably be quicker if i just showed you . jake : oh , yeah ? i can be quick . elizabeth : you 'd better not be . jake : i can be quick . [ chuckles ] hey , we 're getting pretty good at that . elizabeth : practice makes perfect . jake : oh , yeah ? it does ? then i guess i 'm a perfectionist . elizabeth : oh , really ? [ both laughing ] jake : i do n't know . bad joke . sorry . just really enjoy being here . elizabeth : uh - oh . jake : `` uh - oh , `` what ? elizabeth : well , generally when someone says that , it means they 're about to leave . jake : ah , come on . i mean it . i 've got to -- i 've got to go find my own place . i 've got to stop mooching off of you . elizabeth : jake , you are many things , but you are not a moocher . jake : [ sighs ] now that i 'm ... not working with the jeromes -- elizabeth : oh , thank god . jake : yes , thank god . as much as i have enjoyed hanging out with you and your boys and ... performing various and sundry home repairs , i need to go find a job . [ scene_break ] sloane : what i want is simple . i want you to call lomax and order her to reappoint me . nikolas : order her ? first off , the mayor is not my lap dog . sloane : could 've fooled me . nikolas : second , she would never reverse her decision . it would be political suicide . sloane : so , i 'm screwed ? is that it ? nikolas : no , no , no , no . not necessarily . i have an alternate job opportunity for you . sloane : i do n't want to be nanny to your kid , okay ? no offense , but he 's hell on wheels . nikolas : do n't worry about spencer . he 's taken care of . sloane : hmm . nikolas : i want you to help me take over elq . [ scene_break ] rosalie : if you 're asking me to explain franco , or nina , for that matter ... look , all i know is that i did n't buy the shares . how could i have ? every last dollar was returned to you , right ? and i think it 's pretty obvious that i do n't have access to that kind of cash . or any cash , for that matter . michael : oh . rosalie : so , you believe me ? michael : [ chuckles ] yeah , yeah , i do . rosalie : good . although ... i have to say , i was a little surprised that you would even ask . have i done something recently that makes you not trust me all of a sudden ? michael : no , no , you did n't . rosalie : okay . 'cause i thought we were solid . i thought we were friends . michael : we are . rosalie : okay . so , what is it ? you know what ? i think i just answered my own question . this suspicion is not coming from you , is it ? it 's coming from sabrina . [ scene_break ] sam : if rosalie is trying to pull one over on michael , it is definitely my problem . sabrina : oh ? i -- i guess i did n't realize you guys were close . sam : well , i mean , michael was arguably jason 's favorite person in the whole world , which means i would actually get on my knees and walk miles for him . not to mention that i think he is actually a really great guy . sabrina : yeah . sam : so , fill me in . you think that rosalie is lying -- that she actually did try and buy elq shares from nina ? sabrina : it 's just a thought , but yes . sam : okay , so what did rosalie do with the money that michael gave her to make the purchase ? sabrina : she returned it , which is where things get complicated . sam : yes , of course , because rosalie does n't have that kind of money . sabrina : exactly . sam : okay , well , maybe someone else gave it to her . sabrina : that 's what i was thinking . sam : any idea who ? sabrina : whoever rosalie called `` boss . `` sam : `` boss `` ? sabrina : yeah , so ... i brought aj to michael 's office one day to visit her older brother , and when i got there , rosalie was finishing up a phone call , and whoever was on the other line , she called `` boss , `` and it was n't michael . sam : really ? did you ask her about it ? sabrina : no . i told michael , but i do n't think he ever followed up . sam : okay , well , that means that she 's working for somebody else or she 's some kind of big corporate spy . sabrina : yeah , i do n't know . but maybe you could find out . [ scene_break ] franco : you have another way to get through to nina ? what is it ? you going to peel back her fingernails ? you going to waterboard her ? what ? dr. obrecht : something slightly less painful but equally dramatic . i am , however , hesitant to get involved in the matter , as i never believed my niece to be worthy of your genius . franco : yeah , well , you and i , we 're going to disagree on that , but back to your idea -- what is it ? what could possibly get nina to see the light ? dr. obrecht : it 's not a `` what . `` it 's a `` who . `` her mother , magda .

[ scene_break ] molly : oh , let 's just back up a little here . i 'm still getting used to the idea that my dad is remarried . it was very unexpected . nina : oh , yes . well , ric and i just clicked . we have a lot in common . molly : you do ? ric : look , nina and i have had our share of misguided choices and been ostracized for them , you know ? look , i do n't want to keep bringing up and revisiting all of our past mistakes . molly : yeah , of course not . you do n't have to do that . ric : right , no , but nina and i empathize with one another . i mean , we were criticized , and we felt , you know , judged for that , but now we do n't have to feel that anymore because we have , you know , each other . nina : all we need to make our family complete is to know that -- molly : `` family `` ? nina : yes . you and me and molly makes three . [ cell phone rings ] molly : oh , is that me ? please , let that be me . yes ! `` unknown caller `` ? ric : sweetheart , no , maybe you can wait until after breakfast ? molly : well , maybe it 's my mother calling from court . i 'd better take it . whoever you are , you have great timing . tj : mol , it 's me . look , i need your help . [ scene_break ] jordan : well , did you get a hold of falconeri ? valerie : not yet , but i left him a message . jordan : all right , well , keep trying . i need to know what the hell happened to my son . [ scene_break ] tj : i 'm really sorry to dump this on you . molly : stop . i 'm on it , okay ? somehow we 'll figure this out . tj : okay . molly : i 'll talk to you soon , tj . tj : thanks , mol . ric : honey , what 's wrong ? molly : tj 's been arrested . [ scene_break ] franco : nina hates her mother , and for good reason . dr. obrecht : and she 's more than entitled to those feelings . but in this particular instance , you 'd be wise to ally yourself with magda . franco : why ? dr. obrecht : magda wants the family fortune , ja ? has been trying to pry it back from nina for decades . franco : ja , so ? dr. obrecht : so , if ric lansing is truly attempting to strip nina of her money , magda would do everything in her power to stop it . franco : the enemy of my enemy is my friend . i like that . dr. obrecht : precisely . franco : yeah , i like that a lot . there 's only one problem . dr. obrecht : what 's that ? franco : madeline is in prison . dr. obrecht : rendering her a captive audience . [ scene_break ] jake : i need something that does n't require , like , certification . you know , i do n't know , construction , something like that -- manual labor . elizabeth : [ gasps ] `` dog walker . `` right there . jake : are you serious ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jake : really ? okay . whoa , wait , go back . that one , right there . is that working for michael quartermaine ?

[ scene_break ] sabrina : unless you 're not taking on any new cases right now . sam : no , are you kidding me ? even if i was n't , i would absolutely make an exception for michael . sabrina : because of jason . okay . sam : yeah , okay . so ... what 's your story ? sabrina : what ? sam : it 's obvious that you and michael are , you know ? i mean , this is definitely not a part of your job description , and i saw the two of you getting close at the nurses ' ball . sabrina : yes , michael and i are seeing each other . sam : that 's great . sabrina : and very new . sam : that 's good . sabrina : yeah . i mean , i do n't know . we 're still trying to figure out the whole employer - employee/ boyfriend - girlfriend thing . sam : yeah . sabrina : it 's kind of -- sam : complicated . i get it . sabrina : yeah . sam : yeah . sabrina : michael 's worth it . and -- and i know how much elq means to him , and i would hate to see him lose the company . sam : i agree , and not just for michael 's sake , but danny 's , as well . the quartermaines are his family . sabrina : so , you 'll do it ? you 'll look into whatever 's going on at elq ? sam : [ sighs ] yes , of course . i just -- i do n't know where to start . sabrina : well , that 's easy . with rosalie 's secret . [ scene_break ] sloane : so , you have 43 1/2 % of elq ? nikolas : that 's correct . sloane : and if you were to have dillon quartermaine 's 11 1/2 , that would give you a majority -- pretty fortuitous he just showed up in port charles . nikolas : i 'm on top of the dillon situation , but it 's not a lock . in the event he ca n't be swayed , if i could get 6 1/2 % from either maya ward or brook lynn ashton ... sloane : that would give you an even 50 . you really have a way to get your hands on those shares ? nikolas : that 's where you come in . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i think elq does background checks on all their new employees . jake : yeah , i imagine that you 're right , but ... if i knew the ceo , maybe i can get around all that . elizabeth : you know michael ? like , well ? jake : um , i would n't say well . i 've met him . and when i did , i really liked him . you know , he just seems like a really great kid . elizabeth : he is . jason adored him . jake : yeah . it 's funny . when i met him , he kept going on and on about how much he loved his uncle . i did n't realize at the time he was talking about jason . elizabeth : oh . sounds like you guys got kind of personal . jake : mm - hmm . well [ clears throat ] it was the day that i insisted on climbing the hospital steps . elizabeth : `` i 'm king of the world ! `` jake : [ chuckles ] yeah . anyway , you got paged , and i was sure that i could make it back to my room . i found myself too tired to move , and i was ready to swallow my pride and ask an orderly for help , and there michael was . did n't know me at all . he was just ready to help . being kind . elizabeth : obviously , he made quite an impression on you . jake : yes . and we -- [ chuckles ] we discussed the trials and tribulations of tbi , which , in the case of getting a job , michael knows better than anybody else why i do n't have a social security card or an id , you know ? elizabeth : yeah , that 's true . but , i mean , you really want to go corporate ? does n't seem your speed . jake : oh - ho - ho ! i see what you 're getting at , and i would agree with you if i was applying for a stockbroker , but this is head of security . and i 'm pretty sure i can handle that . elizabeth : yeah . yeah , no , you definitely can . it sounds perfect , except for one thing . what about sonny ? [ scene_break ] michael : look , jealous or not , and i do n't think sabrina is , she 's not out to get you . rosalie : are you sure ? michael : yeah , that 's just not the kind of person she is . rosalie : if you say so . michael : i do say so . and what i say goes , right ? rosalie : well , you are the boss . michael : do n't you forget it . rosalie : [ chuckles ] michael : seriously , though , we 're cool ? rosalie : you tell me . i 'm not the one with questions . michael : neither am i , not anymore . look , i believe you , i do , and i 'm sorry about before . rosalie : do n't be . you were just looking out for your company . michael : so , erase this conversation from the books ? rosalie : done . michael : okay . now we need to focus on getting those missing shares back before someone takes over elq . [ scene_break ] nikolas : this is a dossier on maya ward and brook lynn ashton . i want you to find them . get one , or ideally both , to sign over their shares without it being traced back to me . sloane : oh , sure , that should be easy . nikolas : i 'll make it worth your while . i mean , come on , it has to be better than standing in the unemployment line , right ? what do you say ? [ scene_break ] sam : wait a second . back up . wait , you just said that rosalie has a secret ? sabrina : yeah . she told michael about it . well , not about it , you know , but the fact that one exists . apparently , that 's how nina got her to do all her dirty work . otherwise she would 've been out of there . or so rosalie says . sam : okay , wait a minute . so , nina is obviously the key to all this . she knows rosalie 's secret , and she knows what happened to the elq shares . sabrina : sam , i just realized . i 'm so sorry . sam : why ? sabrina : because nina -- because of everything that happened with her and with silas and with you . i mean , i 'm sure she 's the last person you want to deal with right now . sam : are you kidding me ? nina ? please . bring it on . [ scene_break ] ric : sweetheart , what did tj say ? molly : not much . i do n't even know what happened yet . just that he 's gon na need a lawyer . you 'll represent him , wo n't you ? ric : of course , i will . nina : of course , he will . ric : you know what ? i 'm gon na head down to the station right now . molly : i 'm coming with you . nina : okay , and i 'll just ... um ... hang here . [ scene_break ] franco : um ... look , i understand that madeline wants to keep ric away from the family fortune . i get that , but she 's not in any position to do anything about it . dr. obrecht : where there 's a will , there 's a way , as you americans always insist on saying , and magda has will in spades . franco : yeah , but why would she listen to anything that i have to say ? i left her for half - dead on a -- on a motel - room floor after nina bludgeoned her . she 's not exactly my biggest fan . dr. obrecht : but you have a secret weapon . franco : i do ? dr. obrecht : i will accompany you and explain the situation to her . franco : but what if that 's not enough ? dr. obrecht : i have ways to ensure my sister 's cooperation . so , are you up for a trip to pentonville ? franco : shotgun ! [ scene_break ] jake : what about sonny ? elizabeth : well , you 've made tentative peace with him . would n't working with michael just mess all of that up ? jake : by heading up his son 's security ? elizabeth : estranged son . jake : okay , his estranged son . sonny 's not gon na try to kill me for that . look , anyway [ clears throat ] it 's worth a shot . if it works out , it works out . if it does n't , oh , well . but who knows ? maybe i 'll just fit in with the quartermaines . you never know . got to give it a shot .

[ scene_break ] sam : wait a minute . rosalie martinez , as in nina 's old nurse , rosalie ? sabrina : she 's michael 's assistant now . sam : oh , wow , from nurse to executive assistant . that 's quite a leap , do n't you think ? sabrina : well , yeah , it would be , but she was never really a nurse . sam : huh ? sabrina : rosalie was lying the entire time she was working for nina , and i have a feeling she 's still lying now . [ scene_break ] michael : you told me that nina refused to sell the shares that ned gave him . rosalie : yeah . i mean , i -- i tried to convince her , but nina would n't budge . like i said , we did n't exactly part on the best of terms . but i swear , michael , i did everything in my power to try to convince her . michael : i 'm sure you did . it 's just ... franco came to see me yesterday . he was furious . convinced that i owed him money . rosalie : why would he think that ? michael : well , according to franco , nina did sell those elq shares ... to you . [ scene_break ] franco : remember when i said that i was going to confront nina ? dr. obrecht : i remember everything you say and do . franco : well , i went to her hotel room , `` egg salad `` in hand , and she busted it over my head . dr. obrecht : that vindictive schlampe . franco : i 'm guessing `` schlampe `` is a not - nice word ? dr. obrecht : i told you to stay away from her . franco : yeah , i know . but someone needed to show her that ric lansing only married her for her money . dr. obrecht : did she thank you for showing her the error of her ways ? jump into your arms ? divorce ric on the spot ? did she pledge her undying love to you ? franco : not exactly . [ scene_break ] ric : i 'm sorry . did you just say that you own 11 1/2 % of elq ? nina : `` owned `` -- past tense . yeah . ric : oh ? nina : franco got the shares from ned in exchange for us keeping a secret that olivia had . ric : well , those shares are worth a fortune . nina : oh , yeah , they sure are . ric : you sold them ? for ... how much ? nina : uh ... not sure . but i 'll tell you something . there were a lot of stacks of cash involved , that 's for sure . ric : wow . and where are those stacks now ? nina : well , with part of it , i used it to pay the bill that i owed olivia . that 's why you have n't seen her around nagging us , right ? i just did n't think it was fair for you to take responsibility for , you know , what franco and i racked up when i was single . ric : yeah , but , i mean , all the cash is n't gone , right ? nina : oh , no . part of it is in the bank . ric : [ sighs ] thank god . [ chuckles ] nina : why `` thank god `` ? i thought you were n't interested in my money . [ scene_break ] franco : nina has taken up permanent residence in lala land . she thinks that ric married her for her sparkling personality and that the whirlwind nuptials had nothing to do with the reeves fortune . dr. obrecht : denial is a powerful thing . franco : yeah , it is . and i have tried everything that i can think of to try and get her to see the truth . i -- i even threatened her with jail time . dr. obrecht : how did you do that ? franco : oh , with the help of your son , actually . nathan brought nina in for kidnapping a kid -- avery quartermaine . dr. obrecht : i believe it 's `` aj `` now . franco : they should pick a name and stick to it . dr. obrecht : but nina did not confess ? franco : oh , god , no . i made that whole thing up . dr. obrecht : and nathan went along with it ? franco : oh , yeah , he hates the idea of ric being with nina as much as i do , if not more so . and it was going beautiful , liesl , it really was . i mean , when faced with the choice between a jail cell and an annulment , nina 's so - called marriage was about to implode . dr. obrecht : until ? franco : until nina called our bluff , and then your son chickened out , 'cause he 's a yellow - bellied coward . he may -- he may call himself a cop and walk around with a badge and a gun , but he did n't have what it takes to lock his sister up for one measly night . dr. obrecht : nathan can be too compassionate for his own good . i do not know from where he gets it . franco : well , not from you . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] and certainly not from his vater . franco : nathan is useless . dr. obrecht : i urge you to rephrase immediately . franco : in this particular situation . and i 'm fresh out of ideas . i know that there 's a way to get nina to see the truth . i just do n't know what it is . dr. obrecht : maybe i do . [ scene_break ] sabrina : franco showed up here last night ranting and raving . sam : well , i mean , that 's par for the course for franco . sabrina : yeah , i guess , but this time he actually had a reason . nina sold his elq shares , and he was not happy about it . [ scene_break ] rosalie : wait , franco said that nina sold me the shares ? michael : and that it was n't her right , because they were half his , so he wanted half the money . [ scene_break ] sabrina : michael was taken completely off guard . sam : yeah , well , that 'll happen when someone storms into your home . sabrina : well , yeah , but not just because of that . those shares -- rosalie specifically told michael that nina refused to sell . [ scene_break ] michael : it 's just really strange , you know , because what franco was saying is the complete opposite from what you told me . rosalie : i mean , yeah , that is -- that is really strange . um ... the only thing i can think is that maybe nina lied to franco . [ scene_break ] sabrina : michael 's first thought was that nina lied to franco . sam : okay , well , what were you thinking ? sabrina : i think it 's equally possible that rosalie is lying to michael . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i mean , why would n't nina lie to franco and say that she did n't have the shares anymore ? you know , she 's probably trying to get him off her back . especially now that she 's done with that psycho and married to someone else . [ scene_break ] ric : i do n't care about your money . i do care about my wife , though . we 've already established that i 've not been around much lately , and the thought of somebody using my absence to take advantage of you , that just does n't sit well with me . molly : hey , dad . ric : molly , hi . sweetheart . oh , i 'm so glad to see you . oh , you finally get a chance to meet my wife , nina . nina : hey . you told her the good news ? mm - hmm . molly : yeah , he told me the news , all right . and fyi , we 've already met . nina is the one who ruined sam 's relationship with silas . nina : oh , well , in all fairness , he was my husband at the time . molly : okay , well , in all fairness , they thought you were dead . nina : she 's got spunk , that one . ric : [ chuckles ] that 's a -- a word for it . nina : yeah . well , listen , i -- i just want you to know that i 've done some work on myself and apologize for any pain that i inflicted on anyone . [ clears throat ] molly : to my sister ? nina : um ... well , no , to silas , but i -- i supposed i should apologize to your sister , samantha , and anything that i did , it -- it was n't personal . molly : [ laughs ] okay , nina . nina : listen . hey ? hey ? call me `` mom . `` [ scene_break ] jordan : look , i know you 're not happy with me at the moment , but i 'm still your mother , and i want to help you . so , please , no judgments , i promise . i 'm just -- just here to listen . tj : okay , well , i guess i do have one thing to say . jordan : okay . tj : congratulations . your big promotion . that must be your reward for screwing over shawn . jordan : will you please just tell me what happened ? why did dante arrest you ? tj : why do you care ? jordan : why do i ... ? why do you think ? tj : 'cause you 're the hot - shot commissioner now . you 're probably just worried that i 'll embarrass you . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you threatening me ? sloane : no , i 'm just pointing out facts . you helped me fix the mayoral election . now ... if that fact were to come to light , not only would it tarnish your royal reputation , could land you in jail . i 'd hate to see that happen . nikolas : [ chuckles ] right . sloane : so , i thought i 'd do you the courtesy of talking to you first . nikolas : cut the crap , sloane . we both know you ca n't expose me without exposing yourself . you have no intention of coming forward . so , just tell me what you really want . [ scene_break ] jake : danny and i were playing with this motorcycle , talking about how fast we could make it go . and you said something like , `` wonder where he gets that from ? `` like he was my kid . elizabeth : well , dreams are supposed to confuse us , right ? i mean , mine never make any sense . jake : yeah , i guess so . i do n't know . [ sighs ] this one was just out there , you know ? elizabeth : like when cameron dreamed that he was ... the host of his own tv show ? [ chuckles ] jake : his own `` mr . fix it `` show . what 's so out there about that ? he and aiden were helping me every step of the way when i fixed the washer and dryer . elizabeth : and the garage door opener and aiden 's bike and the bathroom window . you know , i did n't ask you to stay here , because you 're good with a toolbox . jake : you did n't ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jake : no . i like spending time with those guys . elizabeth : well , they like it , too . you 've gone above and beyond when it comes to them . jake : look , it 's all temporary . i just have to find a job . that way , i can pay for my own place . elizabeth : there 's no rush . the boys love having you here . and so do i . so , stop worrying . jake : how do you suppose i do that ? elizabeth : well , i could tell you , but it would probably be quicker if i just showed you . jake : oh , yeah ? i can be quick . elizabeth : you 'd better not be . jake : i can be quick . [ chuckles ] hey , we 're getting pretty good at that . elizabeth : practice makes perfect . jake : oh , yeah ? it does ? then i guess i 'm a perfectionist . elizabeth : oh , really ? [ both laughing ] jake : i do n't know . bad joke . sorry . just really enjoy being here . elizabeth : uh - oh . jake : `` uh - oh , `` what ? elizabeth : well , generally when someone says that , it means they 're about to leave . jake : ah , come on . i mean it . i 've got to -- i 've got to go find my own place . i 've got to stop mooching off of you . elizabeth : jake , you are many things , but you are not a moocher . jake : [ sighs ] now that i 'm ... not working with the jeromes -- elizabeth : oh , thank god . jake : yes , thank god . as much as i have enjoyed hanging out with you and your boys and ... performing various and sundry home repairs , i need to go find a job . [ scene_break ] sloane : what i want is simple . i want you to call lomax and order her to reappoint me . nikolas : order her ? first off , the mayor is not my lap dog . sloane : could 've fooled me . nikolas : second , she would never reverse her decision . it would be political suicide . sloane : so , i 'm screwed ? is that it ? nikolas : no , no , no , no . not necessarily . i have an alternate job opportunity for you . sloane : i do n't want to be nanny to your kid , okay ? no offense , but he 's hell on wheels . nikolas : do n't worry about spencer . he 's taken care of . sloane : hmm . nikolas : i want you to help me take over elq . [ scene_break ] rosalie : if you 're asking me to explain franco , or nina , for that matter ... look , all i know is that i did n't buy the shares . how could i have ? every last dollar was returned to you , right ? and i think it 's pretty obvious that i do n't have access to that kind of cash . or any cash , for that matter . michael : oh . rosalie : so , you believe me ? michael : [ chuckles ] yeah , yeah , i do . rosalie : good . although ... i have to say , i was a little surprised that you would even ask . have i done something recently that makes you not trust me all of a sudden ? michael : no , no , you did n't . rosalie : okay . 'cause i thought we were solid . i thought we were friends . michael : we are . rosalie : okay . so , what is it ? you know what ? i think i just answered my own question . this suspicion is not coming from you , is it ? it 's coming from sabrina . [ scene_break ] sam : if rosalie is trying to pull one over on michael , it is definitely my problem . sabrina : oh ? i -- i guess i did n't realize you guys were close . sam : well , i mean , michael was arguably jason 's favorite person in the whole world , which means i would actually get on my knees and walk miles for him . not to mention that i think he is actually a really great guy . sabrina : yeah . sam : so , fill me in . you think that rosalie is lying -- that she actually did try and buy elq shares from nina ? sabrina : it 's just a thought , but yes . sam : okay , so what did rosalie do with the money that michael gave her to make the purchase ? sabrina : she returned it , which is where things get complicated . sam : yes , of course , because rosalie does n't have that kind of money . sabrina : exactly . sam : okay , well , maybe someone else gave it to her . sabrina : that 's what i was thinking . sam : any idea who ? sabrina : whoever rosalie called `` boss . `` sam : `` boss `` ? sabrina : yeah , so ... i brought aj to michael 's office one day to visit her older brother , and when i got there , rosalie was finishing up a phone call , and whoever was on the other line , she called `` boss , `` and it was n't michael . sam : really ? did you ask her about it ? sabrina : no . i told michael , but i do n't think he ever followed up . sam : okay , well , that means that she 's working for somebody else or she 's some kind of big corporate spy . sabrina : yeah , i do n't know . but maybe you could find out . [ scene_break ] franco : you have another way to get through to nina ? what is it ? you going to peel back her fingernails ? you going to waterboard her ? what ? dr. obrecht : something slightly less painful but equally dramatic . i am , however , hesitant to get involved in the matter , as i never believed my niece to be worthy of your genius . franco : yeah , well , you and i , we 're going to disagree on that , but back to your idea -- what is it ? what could possibly get nina to see the light ? dr. obrecht : it 's not a `` what . `` it 's a `` who . `` her mother , magda . [ scene_break ] molly : thanks , but i have a mother . her name 's alexis . nina : i know that . i know . and i did n't meant to imply otherwise . molly : yeah , i 'm sure you did n't . nina : no , i did n't . just listen . just consider me to be another female presence to guide you through this new stage of womanhood . molly : oh , my god . ric : okay , molly , nina 's just trying to be a friend . nina : no , i -- more than that . just consider yourself to have two mommies now . [ scene_break ] jordan : i 'm your mother . tj : you 've said that already . jordan : okay , well , i think it bears repeating . tj , you can never embarrass me , baby , no . i just -- i just want to make sure that you 're all right , so , please , just tell me what happened . so , that 's it ? you 're just gon na shut me out ? you need to talk to someone . tj : you 're right . i want my phone call . i 'm entitled to that . right , commish ? [ scene_break ] molly : oh , let 's just back up a little here . i 'm still getting used to the idea that my dad is remarried . it was very unexpected . nina : oh , yes . well , ric and i just clicked . we have a lot in common . molly : you do ? ric : look , nina and i have had our share of misguided choices and been ostracized for them , you know ? look , i do n't want to keep bringing up and revisiting all of our past mistakes . molly : yeah , of course not . you do n't have to do that . ric : right , no , but nina and i empathize with one another . i mean , we were criticized , and we felt , you know , judged for that , but now we do n't have to feel that anymore because we have , you know , each other . nina : all we need to make our family complete is to know that -- molly : `` family `` ? nina : yes . you and me and molly makes three . [ cell phone rings ] molly : oh , is that me ? please , let that be me . yes ! `` unknown caller `` ? ric : sweetheart , no , maybe you can wait until after breakfast ? molly : well , maybe it 's my mother calling from court . i 'd better take it . whoever you are , you have great timing . tj : mol , it 's me . look , i need your help . [ scene_break ] jordan : well , did you get a hold of falconeri ? valerie : not yet , but i left him a message . jordan : all right , well , keep trying . i need to know what the hell happened to my son . [ scene_break ] tj : i 'm really sorry to dump this on you . molly : stop . i 'm on it , okay ? somehow we 'll figure this out . tj : okay . molly : i 'll talk to you soon , tj . tj : thanks , mol . ric : honey , what 's wrong ? molly : tj 's been arrested . [ scene_break ] franco : nina hates her mother , and for good reason . dr. obrecht : and she 's more than entitled to those feelings . but in this particular instance , you 'd be wise to ally yourself with magda . franco : why ? dr. obrecht : magda wants the family fortune , ja ? has been trying to pry it back from nina for decades . franco : ja , so ? dr. obrecht : so , if ric lansing is truly attempting to strip nina of her money , magda would do everything in her power to stop it . franco : the enemy of my enemy is my friend . i like that . dr. obrecht : precisely . franco : yeah , i like that a lot . there 's only one problem . dr. obrecht : what 's that ? franco : madeline is in prison . dr. obrecht : rendering her a captive audience . [ scene_break ] jake : i need something that does n't require , like , certification . you know , i do n't know , construction , something like that -- manual labor . elizabeth : [ gasps ] `` dog walker . `` right there . jake : are you serious ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jake : really ? okay . whoa , wait , go back . that one , right there . is that working for michael quartermaine ? [ scene_break ] michael : i 'm not really sure why we 're talking about sabrina right now . rosalie : it 's pretty obvious she does n't like me . michael : is it ? rosalie : although i 'm not sure why . unless ... michael : unless ? rosalie : never mind . forget it . michael : no , tell me . what were you gon na say ? rosalie : well , i just think that maybe the reason that i am not sabrina 's favorite person right now is because she 's jealous . michael : of you ? rosalie : of us . not that there is an `` us . `` michael : oh , well , there could 've been . rosalie : yeah , but you were n't interested , so ... michael : sorry , i -- i was n't interested ? rosalie : were you ? michael : you 're the one who wanted to put on the brakes . rosalie : i just figured , you know , once i started working for you ... michael : right . it would n't have been appropriate . rosalie : but now sabrina 's working for you , too , is n't she ? look , it 's no secret that we slept together . and now that you and sabrina are seeing each other ... you are seeing each other , right ? michael : it 's kind of new , but ... yeah . rosalie : i just think that maybe , however misguided , sabrina sees me as a threat .

[ previously_on ] devon : i am afraid that i have some bad news . i 'm closing down power communications . mariah : i was just looking at a text . lindsay : from tessa ? mariah : no , from tanner . lindsay : as in tanner watts ? that 's who she 's on tour with ? mariah : yep . billy : what are you doing ? paul : who was it ? amanda : his name 's robby turner . he was my ex . i have a restraining order against him . paul : why would you want to hurt victoria ? amanda : because he thought that she was me . nate : she 's made it through surgery . but i 'm afraid that , for now , all we can do is wait and hope for the best . chance : chelsea is selling you her shares at this hotel . phyllis : i do n't do things halfway . i do n't want half of this hotel . i want the whole damn thing . abby : still no change , huh ? well , i 'm just glad that you were able to stay with dad and nikki for so long . were you able to get them to eat something ? i 'm gon na stop by memorial tonight after i 'm done with some some things here , okay ? no , go home , get some rest , and i will see you tomorrow . [ sighs ] chance : victoria is the same ? abby : nick is just leaving the hospital . the poor guy is exhausted . chance : is that why you did n't mention the meeting with phyllis that you 're about to have ? how she 's pressuring you so hard to give up your interest in this hotel ? abby : i do n't need to get my brother tangled up in all of that , okay ? he has enough to worry about . abby : and so do you . especially with victoria 's a attacker still on the loose . abby : you mean amanda 's attacker . that 's who he was really going after . with her living here and all the security measures that you put in place , i feel a lot better about things . chance : i 'm happy to hear that . abby : the front desk is on high alert . there 's a police officer outside amanda 's door . so if that guy dares to show his face here , he 's gon na be arrested . chance : and in the midst of all this turmoil ... we 've got phyllis being more obnoxious than usual . i hate that she wo n't back off , especially your family 's going through this crisis . abby : well , what do you expect from an opportunist like her ? but i am thrilled that you 're riled up on my behalf . chance : it is only because she was able to dig up dirt on adam and me , and i did n't take it serious . she 's exploiting it to make your life hell . abby : chance . i do n't blame you for any of this . i had an epiphany , a way to neutralize phyllis in the short - term by handing her a win . chance : you 're going to give her the grand phoenix ? abby : i did n't say that . phyllis : you need to take a stand . you were harmed and you were hurt emotionally . well , they need to take responsibility for that , for their own negligence . no , it 's not being greedy . listen , you have an obligation to call them out on their recklessness and their irresponsibility . you have that obligation . how else are we all going to bring about change in the world ? ah . you know what ? i understand . i wish there were more people like you in the world , people who are willing to fight the good fight . no , no , no , no . thank you . lindsay : so ... how 's the job search going ? mariah : [ sighs ] it 's going . devon referred me an executive recruiter . lindsay : a headhunter ? mariah : yeah . and i appreciate the help , but ... i 'm looking at their website , and this company is used to placing executives with way more experience than i have who are , let 's see ... oh , `` thought leaders in their industry . `` lindsay : [ chuckles ] well , devon would n't have referred you if he did n't think they 'd see potential in you like he does . mariah : thank you for the positive vibes . lindsay : on the house . theo : hey , lindsay . my usual , please . lindsay : you got it . theo : no luck finding a new gig ? i 'd be glad to put in a good word for you with my boss , for old time 's sake . mariah : summer ? you 're actually suggesting that i -- i work for ... no . no , thank you . theo : just trying to be helpful . i remember how supportive you were when devon fired me , which is to say , not at all . mariah : you have a very short memory , my friend . theo : do i ? mariah : yeah , devon fired you because you kept trying to undermine me . theo : oh . mariah : yeah . theo : yeah , he seemed like he really had your back at the time . but the situation 's changed , and , hey , beggars ca n't be choosers . mariah : hey , theo . theo : yeah . mariah : piss off . theo : okay . rey : any new thoughts on ripley , where he might have gone off to hide ? amanda : i do n't know what to tell you , detective . rey : so you have n't heard from him . amanda : no , thank god . i feel so sick about how badly i misjudged the situation . i had no idea that ripley wanted me dead , and now victoria is paying the price . rey : look , i meant what i said last night , okay ? you are the victim here , too . you are not accountable for your stalker 's behavior . amanda : i gave him a chance . you could have gotten him off the streets when he violated that restraining order . rey : yeah , maybe . maybe not . even if i put him in lock up and booked him , a judge still could have granted him bail , anyway . amanda : i know . i know . i know you 're right . i just -- i ca n't help feeling responsible for this . victoria should be home right now with her kids . i remember thinking about things i did and wondering additional sponsorship theo : hey , um ... mariah : are you still here ? theo : look , i was just giving you a hard time before . i did n't mean anything by it , mariah : really ? theo : look , you 're bright with a great track record . you 're gon na land on your feet . mariah : well , thank you . i appreciate the pep talk , but it is really not necessary . something will turn up . theo : you know what you should do ? mariah : i do n't really remember asking for your advice . theo : mm . use your connection to tessa . get in with tanner watts ' people . they run a first - class outfit . you could put all your skills to good use . mariah : they 're based in new york . i really have no interest in pulling up stakes . theo : why not ? nothing tying you here , is there ? mariah : well , theo , family is very , very important to me , and i lost so many years with my mom as it is . theo : well , i get that . i 've been trying to build my own long - lost family connections . but , still , you ought to at least look into it . you can tell they know what they 're doing from the way they run tanner 's social media . the content schedule has a good balance between promotion and engagement , and every so often , they throw out a little catnip . like they did today with that photo of tanner and tessa . mariah : what photo ? theo : oh , you have n't seen it ? it 's a brilliant strategy . you know , i 'm going to the rumor mill pumping , everybody guessing is this kind of , what , some secret romance ? you know , i guarantee you , their next move will be to concoct some fake feud between tessa and tanner 's actual girlfriend . the fans will fall for it , like they always do , and get all worked up and download more of tessa 's songs . it 's genius , right ? mariah : yeah . it 's genius . rey : hang in there , and if you do hear from ripley ... amanda : i will let you know immediately . rey : that goes for you , too , billy . do n't try and chase this guy down on your own or play the hero . billy : yeah , uh , trust me , the last thing i 'm feeling right now is heroic . rey : yeah . sharon mentioned that you had to tell your kids that their mother was in the hospital . how 'd that goo ? billy : uh , it was tough . when you see sharon , please tell her the place looks great . rey : i 'll do that . amanda : so , um ... how did katie and johnny take the news ? billy : they 're okay . you know , i gave them the bare minimum , that their mom was in the hospital and the doctors are gon na make her feel better . i 'll let victor explain to them that i 'm the reason why it happened . amanda : the reason it happened is because ripley mistook victoria for me . billy : and i am not going to let you blame yourself for this . you 've been trying to escape ripley for months now . amanda : and , last night , i led him straight to you and victoria . billy : you did n't lead him anywhere . you didn't . you tried to stop a friend from going to a place that he should n't have been at , that he was n't welcome to at all . and i really wish that i listened to you . amanda : i think the time for you to listen was weeks ago when i told you that we needed to stay away from each other , that what we were doing was wrong . billy : we did n't do anything . amanda : no , you might still be with victoria right now working things out , you never would have met ripley . last night never would have happened , and ripley never would have stabbed victoria thinking that she was me . billy : i do n't regret being there . amanda : it 's reckless , billy . okay ? all of it . we are playing with fire . and i know -- i know you love that . you like just taking chances and standing on ledges and screaming out to the wind . but this is where it gets you , people getting hurt , maybe even -- i 'm gon na do what i said i was going to do weeks ago . i 'm keeping my distance . billy : amanda . amanda : no . no , billy . no more . devon : hey . i was hoping we 'd run into you . do you have a chance ? amanda : i ca n't , devon . not right now . ( clucking noises ) abby : so ... what do you think of my plan ? chance : i hate that my problem became your problem . abby : the way i see it , my problem became your problem . chance : how do you figure that ? abby : phyllis and i have been butting heads for months . she 's obsessed with besting me . and until she wins , she 's not going to let it go . that 's what this is about . it 's not about the hotel . the grand phoenix is just a symbol . phyllis is dying to come out on top , and so , fine , i will surrender . chance : by giving up the hotel . abby : i 'm giving phyllis something that means a lot to her , but it does n't mean much to me . bragging rights . she 's gon na make a big production about how she outfoxed me , and hopefully that will be enough to make her go away . chance : adam had a similar attitude -- give her enough to make her happy , and then she 'll leave us alone . abby : great minds think alike . chance : only it did n't work , abby . she took it as a sign that we had more to hide . abby : i 'm confident that my approach will work . [ cellphone rings ] chance : i need to take this . abby : no problem . chance : yeah , can you hold on one second ? thanks . abby : i have to go meet phyllis . wish me luck ? chance : you know that i do . abby : mwah ! [ sighs ] chance : what 's the latest ? devon : you and i both knew that amanda and ripley had taken restraining orders out against each other , but we really jumped to the wrong conclusion about what that meant . if only we had known what she was really going through . elena : she did n't want anyone to know . ripley was her past , and she wanted to leave him behind and have a fresh start in a new city . devon : yeah , i just wish she would have been upfront about the kind of danger she was in . i would n't have been so suspicious of her . elena : yeah , but sometimes victims of abuse feel shame , and they 'd rather keep it to themselves than enlist someone to help them . devon : [ sighs ] now that i think about it , when she heard everything about herself wiped off the internet , it probably nothing to do with colin at all . it was about hiding from ripley . elena : you 're probably right , and i will bet that she only took on the case involving katherine 's will because she needed to get out of town in a hurry . devon : explains why she did n't vet her new client as thoroughly as she should have . and why she has n't gone back to madison yet because the threat 's too big . elena : ripley turner is certainly a sick man -- attacking victoria so viciously . that knife wound was not superficial . he meant for her to die . devon : which means as long as someone like that is out there , amanda 's in jeopardy . billy : well , i 'm here . you ready for my command performance ? jill : i was afraid you would n't show up . billy : to be honest , i did n't once i got in the car . i almost kept driving . take the road wherever it led . jill : i do n't like to hear that , billy . billy : well , i would n't leave my kids , mom . and now that i 'm here , why do n't we just get on with it ? jill : why do you think i wanted to see you ? billy : because you want to know what happened between me and victoria . because you are our biggest supporter . because you were thrilled that we were back together . jill : you were thrilled , too , or so you said . billy : i was . and i thought it was a miracle that she gave me another chance . jill : so what happened ? billy : what always happens ? i let her down . i mean , i talked a good game , and i believed every word and i could n't live up to it . so i freed us both of our unrealistic expectations , jill : oh , billy ... billy : okay , look , i know you 're disappointed in me , or you 're disgusted at me . whatever -- jill : stop . stop , stop . do not put words in my mouth . billy : i do n't actually have to put words in your mouth because you 've always told me that i am so much like john abbott , except i do n't think i am , and i think it 's probably best that we both acknowledge that because it 's not true . it never was true . jill : well , there 's a lot of him in you . billy : okay . jill : no , stop . stop . billy , we 're not done . billy : what do you want me to say ? what are you gon na do ? you 're going to ground me ? are you gon na take away my tv privileges ? okay ? there 's nothing you can say to me that i have n't heard 1,000 times . i am your son . here i am . billy foster abbott , okay ? and this is as good as it gets . and i 'm sorry . tessa : hey , you ! mariah : hey ! i finally got you . tessa : man , is it good to hear your voice . mariah : yeah . yours , too . tessa : sorry i did n't call you back right away . we had sound check and then we we 've been working on the new song , so ... mariah : no , i -- i understand you 're totally crazed . it 's just great to finally be able to talk to you . tessa : i know . it seems like forever . mariah : well , how are things going ? you and tanner must still be getting along if you 're still writing songs together . tessa : well , i ca n't say anything bad about him now because he 's right here . tanner : hey , mariah . abby : you are right on time . please , have a seat . phyllis : all right . this is a conversation that should have happened months ago , but i 'm fine , whatever . abby : well , i think you 'll find that your patience has paid off . i 've been doing a lot of thinking , and i 've decided that you 're right about a lot of things . phyllis : what `` things ? `` abby : what you 've been saying all along . you invested a lot in this hotel , creatively , and i 've been reaping the benefits in a way that i have n't acknowledged . i let our personal conflict blind me to what you 're entitled to , and i would like to make it up to you . phyllis : oh ! okay . well , how do you plan to do that , abby ? abby : mm . phyllis : what is that ? abby : my offer to buy your shares in the grand phoenix . phyllis : oh , god . please , this is three times what they 're worth . devon : so colin was spotted again where ? chance : in europe ? elena : whereabouts ? chance : luxembourg . devon : luxembourg . it 's one of the wealthiest countries in the world . i imagine he felt like he 'd fit right in . chance : yeah . he stopped there briefly . then he took off again . devon : all right . well , thanks for the update . chance : i wish i could say he was captured , but at least now we have a solid lead . i 'll keep you posted . devon : thank you . are your former colleagues on the lookout for this ripley turner guy ? chance : affirmative . devon : good , because with someone like that running around , i do n't think anybody 's safe until he 's in custody . jill : can i get you some water , sweetie ? maybe something stronger ? billy : no , no . that 'll just knock me out . i did n't sleep very well last night . jill : yeah . i do n't think any of us did . um ... there is one thing that i want to make very clear to you . your family is here for you . we love you . there is nothing we would n't do to help you and johnny and katie get through this . as a matter of fact , i would be happy to come and stay with you at victoria 's house , help with the kids until she gets out of the hospital . billy : ah , well , johnny and katie are actually staying at the ranch with nikki and victor . jill : is that a good idea ? i mean , victor 's not going to let you stay there . billy : no , but i think it 's the best thing for them . you know , it gives me some time to clear my head . the kids need some stability right now , and the cops have n't caught ripley yet , so it 's probably the safest place in town . jill : well , i 'm really glad that you 're putting the kids ' needs first , okay ? but i 'd say that it 's time we discussed what you need , and number one on that list is a job . billy : you 're funny . jill : no , no , no , no , no . i know you , and the worst thing you can do is let yourself get bored . that 's when the trouble starts . and that 's the way it 's been since she started crawling . billy : well , the last thing on my mind is job hunting . jill : well , lucky for you , you do n't have to hunt because the right job has just found you . your mission : `` the young and the restless `` will continue . now , we know the trump strategy- billy : i do n't need you to run my life , mom . i do n't need you to step in and take over and fix it . jill : no , no . getting back to work would be the perfect thing for you , something that you 're good at , that you can control . it would counterbalance all the chaos . billy : well , the firm in chicago said they got work for me when i need it , so ... jill : that 's part - time , plus , it 's not nearly challenging enough , and there 's too much travel involved . billy : okay . what do you want me to do ? you want to go back to jabot , right , where it 's safe . jill : oh , no , not jabot . no , no , no , no , no . you get too involved in family politics there . billy : well , newman is n't exactly an option . jill : nope . billy : [ clears throat ] the only place left is ... jill : bingo ! chancellor industries . billy : what would you want me to do there ? jill : i am starting up a media division , and you would be the perfect person to run it . phyllis : abby . what kind of game are you playing with this very generous offer ? abby : it 's no game . actually , i think the correct thing to say would be the game is over . you won . you played your cards exactly right , and you hit the jackpot . here are your earnings . phyllis : why do i think that this has more to do with the intel that it picked up in vegas and less to do with your newfound respect about my contributions to the grand phoenix ? abby : phyllis , i do n't know what you 're referring to , but i do know with this simple transaction , you and i can dissolve our partnership amicably , and we can both be on our merry way . phyllis : okay , well , i could be merry with this kind of money . abby : do we have a deal ? phyllis : eh ... i 'm gon na need a little more time . abby : amanda . hey . i was hoping i was going to see you . how are you doing ? amanda : i 'm hanging in there . that 's a lie . i am -- i 'm a mess . abby : well , we 've added some plainclothes security people and additional monitoring equipment . between that and your police detail , i 'm hoping that i 'll give you some peace of mind . amanda : thank you . you 're you 're being so kind and thorough . i know that it 's a lot of added trouble and expense . abby : it 's worth it . our guest safety is our top priority . amanda : and i hope your first priority as victoria 's sister is getting off of work and spending some time with her and your family . abby : i was at the hospital earlier , and i will be going back shortly . amanda : is there any news on her condition that you can share ? abby : she 's critical . she 's in a medically induced coma . there 's not much we can do right now except for wait and pray . amanda : i 've been doing a lot of that , so ... abby : well , keep 'em coming because victoria needs all of our prayers . nate . hey . how 's victoria ? any word ? nate : she 's holding her own . i 'm on my way there now . just , uh , wanted to stop by , see how amanda was doing . abby : i 'll give you guys some privacy . amanda : you did n't need to come . i 'm okay . i 'm as okay as you can be . nate : under the circumstances , i understand . amanda : i know that victoria is in excellent hands ... nate : but you ca n't help being concerned . victoria 's getting the best care available . you need n't worry yourself about that . amanda : so , do you think she 'll make a full recovery ? nate : there 's every reason to hope for that . amanda : but you ca n't be sure . nate : no guarantees in medicine , or law , for that matter . amanda : nate , please , i just -- i need to know that she 's gon na pull through this . tanner : your girlfriend is blowing up the internet . did you see the picture ? mariah : yeah , i saw it . tessa : what picture ? tanner : all right . you love it ? tessa : oh ! oh , this is the one that bruce took at the after party . tanner : yeah . tessa : who posted it ? tanner : no clue . someone in the office , probably . but they knew the fans were gon na go nuts over this . look , it 's already over 20,000 comments so far . mariah : what are they saying ? tanner : `` rock 's new power couple . `` `` hot ! `` well , they 're right about that one . tessa : okay , well , she was talking about you , so ... tanner : i do n't know . they love you . this is gold for you , babe . mariah : well , congratulations . tessa : okay , well , are you just gon na hang up our call , or ? tanner : okay . i can -- i can take a hint . i 'll give you girls some alone time . later , mariah . tessa : bye . tessa : okay , well , that probably looked weird on your end . mariah : tessa , why was tanner half - dressed ? tessa : oh , he 's such a klutz . he spilt food all down his shirt . tessa : and i 'm -- i 'm supposed to believe that ? tessa : well , why would n't you ? mariah : have you two slept together ? tessa : i ca n't -- i ca n't believe you would ask me that . mariah : i notice that you still have n't answered the question . tessa : i should n't have to . you know i love you . you 're the only person on earth i would -- mariah : i need a drink . lindsay : i can see that . theo : hey . so i saw you were on a video call . i assume with tessa . how 's life on the road ? mariah : please tell me what i did to make you think that we 're friends so i can stop it immediately . summer : hey , uh , my shift just ended , so .. maybe you want to go get a drink somewhere else ? billy : now i know where i get my reckless streak . jill : oh , you 're damn right . billy : yeah . do n't worry , mom , i 'm not going to hold you to the offer , okay ? jill : oh , billy , you misunderstand . that was not an offer . that was an order , and i expect you to follow through with it . billy : mom , i 'm not gon na -- jill : no , i 've been wanting to start this division for over a year now . i want to keep chancellor competitive . billy : in what ? jill : in all aspects -- streaming , news , websites , publishing , you name it . and you would be division president . you would bring in all your own people . you could structure it anyway you 'd like . billy : well , i know a dozen people that would love that opportunity . i 'm just not one of them . jill : billy . billy , you are relentlessly creative , and that 's what i need . come on . you come up with bold new ideas . you rethink the possible . billy : i left jabot a while ago , and you have n't brought this up before . this is the first time i 'm hearing about it . jill : so what ? billy : so what ? it 's not a real job offer . not really . i mean , this is you throwing a life preserver to somebody that you think is drowning . jill : no , it 's not . i did n't offer it to because i did n't think you 'd be interested . you seemed really happy at jabot . all right ? and then when you finally left , i thought you were just getting kind of cramped by the corporate structure . billy : which i am still , by the way . jill : billy , i keep hearing how you want adventure , okay ? this could be it . this could be a new challenge for you . this could be a way to channel all you need for excitement into a positive , profitable way . plus , you could make chancellor relevant in a way that it has n't been for ages . hey , you could go head to head with newman . now , do n't you tell me you do n't love the sound of that . abby : time 's up . i need to the hospital , so let 's get this thing resolved . phyllis : oh , my goodness , i 've barely had time to consider your offer . abby : take a look at all those zeros . it might help you decide . phyllis : well , i mean , i ca n't possibly sell my shares without an independent appraisal or -- or three . and what if you 're off on the value and you 're actually ripping me off by your offer ? abby : phyllis , you know exactly how much this hotel is worth down to the penny . phyllis : well , then there are the tax implications . abby : well , you can have a nice little sit - down with your accountant after the millions are in your hot little hands . phyllis : what 's your hurry ? abby : why are you stalling ? this is a limited - time offer . the clock is ticking . if you make me wait , i might change my mind . phyllis : no , you won't . abby : try me . phyllis : can we help you ? yeah , i 'm looking for abby newman . phyllis : this is abby newman . abby : what 's this ? you been served . phyllis : oh , my goodness . what could that be ? nate : victoria is doing about as well as we could hope for right now . and she 's surrounded by loved ones , whereas you 're trying to deal with what happened on your own . amanda : and i 'm dealing with it . you do n't have to worry about that . nate : come on , do n't do that . amanda : do n't do what ? nate : pretend you 're not traumatized . how could you not be ? a man who you used to love tried to kill you last night . you ca n't sit there and tell me you 're fine . amanda : i swear , i did not have an inkling that ripley was violent like that . god , you must think i 'm a fool , thinking that i had the whole situation under control , that i regained my power . nate : nothing like that has ever occurred to me . not for one second . what ripley did was insane . no one could have predicted it . amanda : well , that 's no longer true . now we know exactly what he would do if he got the chance , and to anyone who is unfortunate enough to be close to me . i need to leave . i need to go into hiding because while i am here , you 're all in danger . lindsay : you ready ? mariah : yeah . elena : i think it 's amazing that the feds were able to track down colin again . i mean , i ca n't imagine he 's had any piece of mind since you took your money . he 's had to watch his back . everywhere he goes . i bet he 's a nervous wreck . devon : yeah . yeah . and you saying that makes me think of how amanda 's probably had to live , always watching over her shoulder and being afraid of being found . elena : yeah . imagine living with all that stress . devon : i just wish we would have known what she was going through , and we would have if we would have asked her about the restraining orders instead of just assuming the worst . elena : well , you had enough on your plate , then taking on amanda 's problems , too ... devon : i know . i know . i was just -- i was focused on not getting played again , but ... i am happy . that colin 's close to being caught , that i might get some of the inheritance back . but with what victoria and amanda are dealing with , it reminds me that there 's a lot more important things in life than money . abby : oh , my god , i 'm being sued . phyllis : oh , my god . for what ? a former guest of the hotel is claiming that he has post - traumatic stress after the simon black hostage incident . migraines , panic attacks , the loss of workdays . phyllis : oh , my goodness . that 's horrible . this is the last thing you need . abby : especially with victoria in such bad shape . phyllis : yeah . oh , no . you know , ever since you and chelsea ripped this hotel out from under me , you have had one disaster after another . it 's like this hotel is cursed . i 'm not one to hand out advice , but instead of trying to hurl money at me , you should just ... give up and give me the hotel outright , i 'm just saying . nate : you ca n't leave . you 're building a new practice here , a new life . you have friends who support you . amanda : and i do n't want to see any of them get hurt . what happened to victoria , because of me ... nate : not because of you . amanda : well , tell that to her little girl and her little boy who are wondering why mommy did n't come home last night . nate : the authorities are going to catch ripley . his photo has been plastered all over the news . everyone 's on the lookout for him . not to mention , the man has made a sworn enemy of victor newman . he 's doomed . look , if you want to hide from ripley without leaving town , you can stay at my place . i have a spare room , security system , and you 'd have your police entourage . amanda : nate , that is very sweet of you , but i can not take you up on that offer . nate : why not ? amanda : because i 'm not putting anyone else in danger . this hotel right here , this is the safest place for me . i hope that means you 'll stay put , not leave genoa city . amanda : it does . for now . jill : why are you fighting me on this ? this position was tailor - made for you . billy : when i walked in here tonight , i told you i was this close to driving o o abandoning all my responsibilities . jill : mm - hmm . billy : i am not the person that you want at the helm of your brand - new expensive division . jill : wrong . you are the best man for the job . billy : mom . everybody that trusts me lives to regret it . jill : god ! i do n't care that you 've made mistakes , okay ? i do n't care that you 're probably gon na keep on making them . welcome to my world . i love you and i do n't want to lose you . billy : which is exactly what this job offer really is . jill : so what if it is ? i own the company , and i know the best when i see them . billy : okay . i ca n't do this right now . i got to go , and , um , i really ca n't take on anything else in my life right now . jill : okay . billy : i just have to function for the kids . jill : okay . just know this . i 'm here if you need me for anything .
mariah has an arguement with tessa after a shirtless tanner interrupts their video call . mariah does n't believe tanner spilled juice in his shirt and she asks tessa if she and tanner have slept together . tessa is shocked that mariah would ask the question and denies the accusation but mariah ends the call while tessa is still talking and goes to have a drink with her friend lindsey the bartender . nate persuades amanda not to leave town and assures her ripley will soon be caught . abby offers to buy phyllis 's shares of the hotel for three times their value but minutes later abby is served with papers because she is being sued by a former guest because of trauma he suffered durring the simon black hostage crisis . jill offers billy a job as the head of chancellor industries soon to be created media division but he turns down her offer because he thinks its just to give him something to do . chance tells devon that they tracked down colin to luxemburg but colin is n't there anymore .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] devon : i am afraid that i have some bad news . i 'm closing down power communications . mariah : i was just looking at a text . lindsay : from tessa ? mariah : no , from tanner . lindsay : as in tanner watts ? that 's who she 's on tour with ? mariah : yep . billy : what are you doing ? paul : who was it ? amanda : his name 's robby turner . he was my ex . i have a restraining order against him . paul : why would you want to hurt victoria ? amanda : because he thought that she was me . nate : she 's made it through surgery . but i 'm afraid that , for now , all we can do is wait and hope for the best . chance : chelsea is selling you her shares at this hotel . phyllis : i do n't do things halfway . i do n't want half of this hotel . i want the whole damn thing . abby : still no change , huh ? well , i 'm just glad that you were able to stay with dad and nikki for so long . were you able to get them to eat something ? i 'm gon na stop by memorial tonight after i 'm done with some some things here , okay ? no , go home , get some rest , and i will see you tomorrow . [ sighs ] chance : victoria is the same ? abby : nick is just leaving the hospital . the poor guy is exhausted . chance : is that why you did n't mention the meeting with phyllis that you 're about to have ? how she 's pressuring you so hard to give up your interest in this hotel ? abby : i do n't need to get my brother tangled up in all of that , okay ? he has enough to worry about . abby : and so do you . especially with victoria 's a attacker still on the loose . abby : you mean amanda 's attacker . that 's who he was really going after . with her living here and all the security measures that you put in place , i feel a lot better about things . chance : i 'm happy to hear that . abby : the front desk is on high alert . there 's a police officer outside amanda 's door . so if that guy dares to show his face here , he 's gon na be arrested . chance : and in the midst of all this turmoil ... we 've got phyllis being more obnoxious than usual . i hate that she wo n't back off , especially your family 's going through this crisis . abby : well , what do you expect from an opportunist like her ? but i am thrilled that you 're riled up on my behalf . chance : it is only because she was able to dig up dirt on adam and me , and i did n't take it serious . she 's exploiting it to make your life hell . abby : chance . i do n't blame you for any of this . i had an epiphany , a way to neutralize phyllis in the short - term by handing her a win . chance : you 're going to give her the grand phoenix ? abby : i did n't say that . phyllis : you need to take a stand . you were harmed and you were hurt emotionally . well , they need to take responsibility for that , for their own negligence . no , it 's not being greedy . listen , you have an obligation to call them out on their recklessness and their irresponsibility . you have that obligation . how else are we all going to bring about change in the world ? ah . you know what ? i understand . i wish there were more people like you in the world , people who are willing to fight the good fight . no , no , no , no . thank you . lindsay : so ... how 's the job search going ? mariah : [ sighs ] it 's going . devon referred me an executive recruiter . lindsay : a headhunter ? mariah : yeah . and i appreciate the help , but ... i 'm looking at their website , and this company is used to placing executives with way more experience than i have who are , let 's see ... oh , `` thought leaders in their industry . `` lindsay : [ chuckles ] well , devon would n't have referred you if he did n't think they 'd see potential in you like he does . mariah : thank you for the positive vibes . lindsay : on the house . theo : hey , lindsay . my usual , please . lindsay : you got it . theo : no luck finding a new gig ? i 'd be glad to put in a good word for you with my boss , for old time 's sake . mariah : summer ? you 're actually suggesting that i -- i work for ... no . no , thank you . theo : just trying to be helpful . i remember how supportive you were when devon fired me , which is to say , not at all . mariah : you have a very short memory , my friend . theo : do i ? mariah : yeah , devon fired you because you kept trying to undermine me . theo : oh . mariah : yeah . theo : yeah , he seemed like he really had your back at the time . but the situation 's changed , and , hey , beggars ca n't be choosers . mariah : hey , theo . theo : yeah . mariah : piss off . theo : okay . rey : any new thoughts on ripley , where he might have gone off to hide ? amanda : i do n't know what to tell you , detective . rey : so you have n't heard from him . amanda : no , thank god . i feel so sick about how badly i misjudged the situation . i had no idea that ripley wanted me dead , and now victoria is paying the price . rey : look , i meant what i said last night , okay ? you are the victim here , too . you are not accountable for your stalker 's behavior . amanda : i gave him a chance . you could have gotten him off the streets when he violated that restraining order . rey : yeah , maybe . maybe not . even if i put him in lock up and booked him , a judge still could have granted him bail , anyway . amanda : i know . i know . i know you 're right . i just -- i ca n't help feeling responsible for this . victoria should be home right now with her kids . i remember thinking about things i did and wondering additional sponsorship theo : hey , um ... mariah : are you still here ? theo : look , i was just giving you a hard time before . i did n't mean anything by it , mariah : really ? theo : look , you 're bright with a great track record . you 're gon na land on your feet . mariah : well , thank you . i appreciate the pep talk , but it is really not necessary . something will turn up . theo : you know what you should do ? mariah : i do n't really remember asking for your advice . theo : mm . use your connection to tessa . get in with tanner watts ' people . they run a first - class outfit . you could put all your skills to good use . mariah : they 're based in new york . i really have no interest in pulling up stakes . theo : why not ? nothing tying you here , is there ? mariah : well , theo , family is very , very important to me , and i lost so many years with my mom as it is . theo : well , i get that . i 've been trying to build my own long - lost family connections . but , still , you ought to at least look into it . you can tell they know what they 're doing from the way they run tanner 's social media . the content schedule has a good balance between promotion and engagement , and every so often , they throw out a little catnip . like they did today with that photo of tanner and tessa . mariah : what photo ? theo : oh , you have n't seen it ? it 's a brilliant strategy . you know , i 'm going to the rumor mill pumping , everybody guessing is this kind of , what , some secret romance ? you know , i guarantee you , their next move will be to concoct some fake feud between tessa and tanner 's actual girlfriend . the fans will fall for it , like they always do , and get all worked up and download more of tessa 's songs . it 's genius , right ? mariah : yeah . it 's genius . rey : hang in there , and if you do hear from ripley ... amanda : i will let you know immediately . rey : that goes for you , too , billy . do n't try and chase this guy down on your own or play the hero . billy : yeah , uh , trust me , the last thing i 'm feeling right now is heroic . rey : yeah . sharon mentioned that you had to tell your kids that their mother was in the hospital . how 'd that goo ? billy : uh , it was tough . when you see sharon , please tell her the place looks great . rey : i 'll do that . amanda : so , um ... how did katie and johnny take the news ? billy : they 're okay . you know , i gave them the bare minimum , that their mom was in the hospital and the doctors are gon na make her feel better . i 'll let victor explain to them that i 'm the reason why it happened . amanda : the reason it happened is because ripley mistook victoria for me . billy : and i am not going to let you blame yourself for this . you 've been trying to escape ripley for months now . amanda : and , last night , i led him straight to you and victoria . billy : you did n't lead him anywhere . you didn't . you tried to stop a friend from going to a place that he should n't have been at , that he was n't welcome to at all . and i really wish that i listened to you . amanda : i think the time for you to listen was weeks ago when i told you that we needed to stay away from each other , that what we were doing was wrong . billy : we did n't do anything . amanda : no , you might still be with victoria right now working things out , you never would have met ripley . last night never would have happened , and ripley never would have stabbed victoria thinking that she was me . billy : i do n't regret being there . amanda : it 's reckless , billy . okay ? all of it . we are playing with fire . and i know -- i know you love that . you like just taking chances and standing on ledges and screaming out to the wind . but this is where it gets you , people getting hurt , maybe even -- i 'm gon na do what i said i was going to do weeks ago . i 'm keeping my distance . billy : amanda . amanda : no . no , billy . no more . devon : hey . i was hoping we 'd run into you . do you have a chance ? amanda : i ca n't , devon . not right now . ( clucking noises ) abby : so ... what do you think of my plan ? chance : i hate that my problem became your problem . abby : the way i see it , my problem became your problem . chance : how do you figure that ? abby : phyllis and i have been butting heads for months . she 's obsessed with besting me . and until she wins , she 's not going to let it go . that 's what this is about . it 's not about the hotel . the grand phoenix is just a symbol . phyllis is dying to come out on top , and so , fine , i will surrender . chance : by giving up the hotel . abby : i 'm giving phyllis something that means a lot to her , but it does n't mean much to me . bragging rights . she 's gon na make a big production about how she outfoxed me , and hopefully that will be enough to make her go away . chance : adam had a similar attitude -- give her enough to make her happy , and then she 'll leave us alone . abby : great minds think alike . chance : only it did n't work , abby . she took it as a sign that we had more to hide . abby : i 'm confident that my approach will work . [ cellphone rings ] chance : i need to take this . abby : no problem . chance : yeah , can you hold on one second ? thanks . abby : i have to go meet phyllis . wish me luck ? chance : you know that i do . abby : mwah ! [ sighs ] chance : what 's the latest ? devon : you and i both knew that amanda and ripley had taken restraining orders out against each other , but we really jumped to the wrong conclusion about what that meant . if only we had known what she was really going through . elena : she did n't want anyone to know . ripley was her past , and she wanted to leave him behind and have a fresh start in a new city . devon : yeah , i just wish she would have been upfront about the kind of danger she was in . i would n't have been so suspicious of her . elena : yeah , but sometimes victims of abuse feel shame , and they 'd rather keep it to themselves than enlist someone to help them . devon : [ sighs ] now that i think about it , when she heard everything about herself wiped off the internet , it probably nothing to do with colin at all . it was about hiding from ripley . elena : you 're probably right , and i will bet that she only took on the case involving katherine 's will because she needed to get out of town in a hurry . devon : explains why she did n't vet her new client as thoroughly as she should have . and why she has n't gone back to madison yet because the threat 's too big . elena : ripley turner is certainly a sick man -- attacking victoria so viciously . that knife wound was not superficial . he meant for her to die . devon : which means as long as someone like that is out there , amanda 's in jeopardy . billy : well , i 'm here . you ready for my command performance ? jill : i was afraid you would n't show up . billy : to be honest , i did n't once i got in the car . i almost kept driving . take the road wherever it led . jill : i do n't like to hear that , billy . billy : well , i would n't leave my kids , mom . and now that i 'm here , why do n't we just get on with it ? jill : why do you think i wanted to see you ? billy : because you want to know what happened between me and victoria . because you are our biggest supporter . because you were thrilled that we were back together . jill : you were thrilled , too , or so you said . billy : i was . and i thought it was a miracle that she gave me another chance . jill : so what happened ? billy : what always happens ? i let her down . i mean , i talked a good game , and i believed every word and i could n't live up to it . so i freed us both of our unrealistic expectations , jill : oh , billy ... billy : okay , look , i know you 're disappointed in me , or you 're disgusted at me . whatever -- jill : stop . stop , stop . do not put words in my mouth . billy : i do n't actually have to put words in your mouth because you 've always told me that i am so much like john abbott , except i do n't think i am , and i think it 's probably best that we both acknowledge that because it 's not true . it never was true . jill : well , there 's a lot of him in you . billy : okay . jill : no , stop . stop . billy , we 're not done . billy : what do you want me to say ? what are you gon na do ? you 're going to ground me ? are you gon na take away my tv privileges ? okay ? there 's nothing you can say to me that i have n't heard 1,000 times . i am your son . here i am . billy foster abbott , okay ? and this is as good as it gets . and i 'm sorry . tessa : hey , you ! mariah : hey ! i finally got you . tessa : man , is it good to hear your voice . mariah : yeah . yours , too . tessa : sorry i did n't call you back right away . we had sound check and then we we 've been working on the new song , so ... mariah : no , i -- i understand you 're totally crazed . it 's just great to finally be able to talk to you . tessa : i know . it seems like forever . mariah : well , how are things going ? you and tanner must still be getting along if you 're still writing songs together . tessa : well , i ca n't say anything bad about him now because he 's right here . tanner : hey , mariah . abby : you are right on time . please , have a seat . phyllis : all right . this is a conversation that should have happened months ago , but i 'm fine , whatever . abby : well , i think you 'll find that your patience has paid off . i 've been doing a lot of thinking , and i 've decided that you 're right about a lot of things . phyllis : what `` things ? `` abby : what you 've been saying all along . you invested a lot in this hotel , creatively , and i 've been reaping the benefits in a way that i have n't acknowledged . i let our personal conflict blind me to what you 're entitled to , and i would like to make it up to you . phyllis : oh ! okay . well , how do you plan to do that , abby ? abby : mm . phyllis : what is that ? abby : my offer to buy your shares in the grand phoenix . phyllis : oh , god . please , this is three times what they 're worth . devon : so colin was spotted again where ? chance : in europe ? elena : whereabouts ? chance : luxembourg . devon : luxembourg . it 's one of the wealthiest countries in the world . i imagine he felt like he 'd fit right in . chance : yeah . he stopped there briefly . then he took off again . devon : all right . well , thanks for the update . chance : i wish i could say he was captured , but at least now we have a solid lead . i 'll keep you posted . devon : thank you . are your former colleagues on the lookout for this ripley turner guy ? chance : affirmative . devon : good , because with someone like that running around , i do n't think anybody 's safe until he 's in custody . jill : can i get you some water , sweetie ? maybe something stronger ? billy : no , no . that 'll just knock me out . i did n't sleep very well last night . jill : yeah . i do n't think any of us did . um ... there is one thing that i want to make very clear to you . your family is here for you . we love you . there is nothing we would n't do to help you and johnny and katie get through this . as a matter of fact , i would be happy to come and stay with you at victoria 's house , help with the kids until she gets out of the hospital . billy : ah , well , johnny and katie are actually staying at the ranch with nikki and victor . jill : is that a good idea ? i mean , victor 's not going to let you stay there . billy : no , but i think it 's the best thing for them . you know , it gives me some time to clear my head . the kids need some stability right now , and the cops have n't caught ripley yet , so it 's probably the safest place in town . jill : well , i 'm really glad that you 're putting the kids ' needs first , okay ? but i 'd say that it 's time we discussed what you need , and number one on that list is a job . billy : you 're funny . jill : no , no , no , no , no . i know you , and the worst thing you can do is let yourself get bored . that 's when the trouble starts . and that 's the way it 's been since she started crawling . billy : well , the last thing on my mind is job hunting . jill : well , lucky for you , you do n't have to hunt because the right job has just found you . your mission : `` the young and the restless `` will continue . now , we know the trump strategy- billy : i do n't need you to run my life , mom . i do n't need you to step in and take over and fix it . jill : no , no . getting back to work would be the perfect thing for you , something that you 're good at , that you can control . it would counterbalance all the chaos . billy : well , the firm in chicago said they got work for me when i need it , so ... jill : that 's part - time , plus , it 's not nearly challenging enough , and there 's too much travel involved . billy : okay . what do you want me to do ? you want to go back to jabot , right , where it 's safe . jill : oh , no , not jabot . no , no , no , no , no . you get too involved in family politics there . billy : well , newman is n't exactly an option . jill : nope . billy : [ clears throat ] the only place left is ... jill : bingo ! chancellor industries . billy : what would you want me to do there ? jill : i am starting up a media division , and you would be the perfect person to run it . phyllis : abby . what kind of game are you playing with this very generous offer ? abby : it 's no game . actually , i think the correct thing to say would be the game is over . you won . you played your cards exactly right , and you hit the jackpot . here are your earnings . phyllis : why do i think that this has more to do with the intel that it picked up in vegas and less to do with your newfound respect about my contributions to the grand phoenix ? abby : phyllis , i do n't know what you 're referring to , but i do know with this simple transaction , you and i can dissolve our partnership amicably , and we can both be on our merry way . phyllis : okay , well , i could be merry with this kind of money . abby : do we have a deal ? phyllis : eh ... i 'm gon na need a little more time . abby : amanda . hey . i was hoping i was going to see you . how are you doing ? amanda : i 'm hanging in there . that 's a lie . i am -- i 'm a mess . abby : well , we 've added some plainclothes security people and additional monitoring equipment . between that and your police detail , i 'm hoping that i 'll give you some peace of mind . amanda : thank you . you 're you 're being so kind and thorough . i know that it 's a lot of added trouble and expense . abby : it 's worth it . our guest safety is our top priority . amanda : and i hope your first priority as victoria 's sister is getting off of work and spending some time with her and your family . abby : i was at the hospital earlier , and i will be going back shortly . amanda : is there any news on her condition that you can share ? abby : she 's critical . she 's in a medically induced coma . there 's not much we can do right now except for wait and pray . amanda : i 've been doing a lot of that , so ... abby : well , keep 'em coming because victoria needs all of our prayers . nate . hey . how 's victoria ? any word ? nate : she 's holding her own . i 'm on my way there now . just , uh , wanted to stop by , see how amanda was doing . abby : i 'll give you guys some privacy . amanda : you did n't need to come . i 'm okay . i 'm as okay as you can be . nate : under the circumstances , i understand . amanda : i know that victoria is in excellent hands ... nate : but you ca n't help being concerned . victoria 's getting the best care available . you need n't worry yourself about that . amanda : so , do you think she 'll make a full recovery ? nate : there 's every reason to hope for that . amanda : but you ca n't be sure . nate : no guarantees in medicine , or law , for that matter . amanda : nate , please , i just -- i need to know that she 's gon na pull through this . tanner : your girlfriend is blowing up the internet . did you see the picture ? mariah : yeah , i saw it . tessa : what picture ? tanner : all right . you love it ? tessa : oh ! oh , this is the one that bruce took at the after party . tanner : yeah . tessa : who posted it ? tanner : no clue . someone in the office , probably . but they knew the fans were gon na go nuts over this . look , it 's already over 20,000 comments so far . mariah : what are they saying ? tanner : `` rock 's new power couple . `` `` hot ! `` well , they 're right about that one . tessa : okay , well , she was talking about you , so ... tanner : i do n't know . they love you . this is gold for you , babe . mariah : well , congratulations . tessa : okay , well , are you just gon na hang up our call , or ? tanner : okay . i can -- i can take a hint . i 'll give you girls some alone time . later , mariah . tessa : bye . tessa : okay , well , that probably looked weird on your end . mariah : tessa , why was tanner half - dressed ? tessa : oh , he 's such a klutz . he spilt food all down his shirt . tessa : and i 'm -- i 'm supposed to believe that ? tessa : well , why would n't you ? mariah : have you two slept together ? tessa : i ca n't -- i ca n't believe you would ask me that . mariah : i notice that you still have n't answered the question . tessa : i should n't have to . you know i love you . you 're the only person on earth i would -- mariah : i need a drink . lindsay : i can see that . theo : hey . so i saw you were on a video call . i assume with tessa . how 's life on the road ? mariah : please tell me what i did to make you think that we 're friends so i can stop it immediately . summer : hey , uh , my shift just ended , so .. maybe you want to go get a drink somewhere else ? billy : now i know where i get my reckless streak . jill : oh , you 're damn right . billy : yeah . do n't worry , mom , i 'm not going to hold you to the offer , okay ? jill : oh , billy , you misunderstand . that was not an offer . that was an order , and i expect you to follow through with it . billy : mom , i 'm not gon na -- jill : no , i 've been wanting to start this division for over a year now . i want to keep chancellor competitive . billy : in what ? jill : in all aspects -- streaming , news , websites , publishing , you name it . and you would be division president . you would bring in all your own people . you could structure it anyway you 'd like . billy : well , i know a dozen people that would love that opportunity . i 'm just not one of them . jill : billy . billy , you are relentlessly creative , and that 's what i need . come on . you come up with bold new ideas . you rethink the possible . billy : i left jabot a while ago , and you have n't brought this up before . this is the first time i 'm hearing about it . jill : so what ? billy : so what ? it 's not a real job offer . not really . i mean , this is you throwing a life preserver to somebody that you think is drowning . jill : no , it 's not . i did n't offer it to because i did n't think you 'd be interested . you seemed really happy at jabot . all right ? and then when you finally left , i thought you were just getting kind of cramped by the corporate structure . billy : which i am still , by the way . jill : billy , i keep hearing how you want adventure , okay ? this could be it . this could be a new challenge for you . this could be a way to channel all you need for excitement into a positive , profitable way . plus , you could make chancellor relevant in a way that it has n't been for ages . hey , you could go head to head with newman . now , do n't you tell me you do n't love the sound of that . abby : time 's up . i need to the hospital , so let 's get this thing resolved . phyllis : oh , my goodness , i 've barely had time to consider your offer . abby : take a look at all those zeros . it might help you decide . phyllis : well , i mean , i ca n't possibly sell my shares without an independent appraisal or -- or three . and what if you 're off on the value and you 're actually ripping me off by your offer ? abby : phyllis , you know exactly how much this hotel is worth down to the penny . phyllis : well , then there are the tax implications . abby : well , you can have a nice little sit - down with your accountant after the millions are in your hot little hands . phyllis : what 's your hurry ? abby : why are you stalling ? this is a limited - time offer . the clock is ticking . if you make me wait , i might change my mind . phyllis : no , you won't . abby : try me . phyllis : can we help you ? yeah , i 'm looking for abby newman . phyllis : this is abby newman . abby : what 's this ? you been served . phyllis : oh , my goodness . what could that be ? nate : victoria is doing about as well as we could hope for right now . and she 's surrounded by loved ones , whereas you 're trying to deal with what happened on your own . amanda : and i 'm dealing with it . you do n't have to worry about that . nate : come on , do n't do that . amanda : do n't do what ? nate : pretend you 're not traumatized . how could you not be ? a man who you used to love tried to kill you last night . you ca n't sit there and tell me you 're fine . amanda : i swear , i did not have an inkling that ripley was violent like that . god , you must think i 'm a fool , thinking that i had the whole situation under control , that i regained my power . nate : nothing like that has ever occurred to me . not for one second . what ripley did was insane . no one could have predicted it . amanda : well , that 's no longer true . now we know exactly what he would do if he got the chance , and to anyone who is unfortunate enough to be close to me . i need to leave . i need to go into hiding because while i am here , you 're all in danger . lindsay : you ready ? mariah : yeah . elena : i think it 's amazing that the feds were able to track down colin again . i mean , i ca n't imagine he 's had any piece of mind since you took your money . he 's had to watch his back . everywhere he goes . i bet he 's a nervous wreck . devon : yeah . yeah . and you saying that makes me think of how amanda 's probably had to live , always watching over her shoulder and being afraid of being found . elena : yeah . imagine living with all that stress . devon : i just wish we would have known what she was going through , and we would have if we would have asked her about the restraining orders instead of just assuming the worst . elena : well , you had enough on your plate , then taking on amanda 's problems , too ... devon : i know . i know . i was just -- i was focused on not getting played again , but ... i am happy . that colin 's close to being caught , that i might get some of the inheritance back . but with what victoria and amanda are dealing with , it reminds me that there 's a lot more important things in life than money . abby : oh , my god , i 'm being sued . phyllis : oh , my god . for what ? a former guest of the hotel is claiming that he has post - traumatic stress after the simon black hostage incident . migraines , panic attacks , the loss of workdays . phyllis : oh , my goodness . that 's horrible . this is the last thing you need . abby : especially with victoria in such bad shape . phyllis : yeah . oh , no . you know , ever since you and chelsea ripped this hotel out from under me , you have had one disaster after another . it 's like this hotel is cursed . i 'm not one to hand out advice , but instead of trying to hurl money at me , you should just ... give up and give me the hotel outright , i 'm just saying . nate : you ca n't leave . you 're building a new practice here , a new life . you have friends who support you . amanda : and i do n't want to see any of them get hurt . what happened to victoria , because of me ... nate : not because of you . amanda : well , tell that to her little girl and her little boy who are wondering why mommy did n't come home last night . nate : the authorities are going to catch ripley . his photo has been plastered all over the news . everyone 's on the lookout for him . not to mention , the man has made a sworn enemy of victor newman . he 's doomed . look , if you want to hide from ripley without leaving town , you can stay at my place . i have a spare room , security system , and you 'd have your police entourage . amanda : nate , that is very sweet of you , but i can not take you up on that offer . nate : why not ? amanda : because i 'm not putting anyone else in danger . this hotel right here , this is the safest place for me . i hope that means you 'll stay put , not leave genoa city . amanda : it does . for now . jill : why are you fighting me on this ? this position was tailor - made for you . billy : when i walked in here tonight , i told you i was this close to driving o o abandoning all my responsibilities . jill : mm - hmm . billy : i am not the person that you want at the helm of your brand - new expensive division . jill : wrong . you are the best man for the job . billy : mom . everybody that trusts me lives to regret it . jill : god ! i do n't care that you 've made mistakes , okay ? i do n't care that you 're probably gon na keep on making them . welcome to my world . i love you and i do n't want to lose you . billy : which is exactly what this job offer really is . jill : so what if it is ? i own the company , and i know the best when i see them . billy : okay . i ca n't do this right now . i got to go , and , um , i really ca n't take on anything else in my life right now . jill : okay . billy : i just have to function for the kids . jill : okay . just know this . i 'm here if you need me for anything .Summarize.[/INST]mariah has an arguement with tessa after a shirtless tanner interrupts their video call . mariah does n't believe tanner spilled juice in his shirt and she asks tessa if she and tanner have slept together . tessa is shocked that mariah would ask the question and denies the accusation but mariah ends the call while tessa is still talking and goes to have a drink with her friend lindsey the bartender . nate persuades amanda not to leave town and assures her ripley will soon be caught . abby offers to buy phyllis 's shares of the hotel for three times their value but minutes later abby is served with papers because she is being sued by a former guest because of trauma he suffered durring the simon black hostage crisis . jill offers billy a job as the head of chancellor industries soon to be created media division but he turns down her offer because he thinks its just to give him something to do . chance tells devon that they tracked down colin to luxemburg but colin is n't there anymore .</s>

[ scene_break ] ashley : okay , so , if it is n't tom who 's pulling the strings , then that must mean that it 's jennifer . which also means that it 's brenda because you think they 're the same person , right ? paul : well , that 's sure how it looks to me . ashley : so why do you think she 's the mastermind ? paul : well , as i said , it 's just a theory at this point . but there are just too many red flags . not the least of which is what i learned in toronto . ashley : you said you did n't find anything out . paul : well , not entirely . i was able to track down brenda 's address through the university . she was staying at a residence hotel and checked in just before her class started with scott . ashley : why is that strange ? paul : she checked out three months ago . and no one has seen or heard from her since . ashley : yeah , but scott said she went back there a few days ago . she called him from there , remember ? paul : from her cell phone . ashley : oh , but still , could n't she have gotten a room at a different hotel or something ? paul : i canvassed all of them in the toronto metro area -- all of the hotels , the motels , the rooming houses -- no brenda harris , no jennifer mitchell . and then there 's the motel from last night . ashley : what about it ? paul : the room was completely wiped clean of all fingerprints . ashley : paul , a maid would 've gone through there after she checked out . paul : no maid at that hotel is going to scrub every square inch . it just is n't gon na happen . ashley : what about the airline receipt ? paul : that 's pretty convenient , do n't you think ? that it just happened to be there for someone to find ? ashley : maybe , maybe not . you know , he was renting a room there . he could 've figured that he would come back and get rid of the evidence later . ( doorbell rings ) paul : it 's possible . that 's j.t . hi , what did you find out from the motel manager ? anything interesting ? j.t . : yeah , it turns out that tom did n't pay in advance for his room this week . jennifer did .

i 'm not pressuring liam or anyone . let 's get one thing straight . you may have a family with liam , but kelly , liam , and i are a family . we were living here with phoebe , something that you insisted on . everything was working out , and then it all fell apart . that little girl that i loved as my own , you took her away . hope : okay , beth was n't taken from you . she was stolen from me -- steffy : i -- hope : and given to you . steffy : i know that . i know that . and i had enormous empathy for you . but i was her mother , too . i loved her . and i cared for her every single day . and it feels like you do n't even realize that you ripped her from my arms . you took her away from kelly and me . you took her sister away . do you even think about that ? do you think about my daughter or me ? the pain that we 're going through ? no . because you 're a logan . and that 's what logans do . they take , and they take , and they take . all you do is take from others . especially from my family . after my dvt blood clot , i wondered . zoe : thomas , you ca n't be serious . the other woman is flo 's mother ? thomas : wild , huh ? but it 's true . so here 's what happened . uh , brooke and my dad , they got into a fight about me , and he went over to bikini . he hit the sauce too hard , and he passed out . but then he ended up spending the night upstairs above the bar with shauna fulton . zoe : all right , thomas , come on . you do n't really expect me to believe that your dad would -- and with shauna fulton ? i mean , especially after what her daughter did to hope and steffy . she would be the last woman he would ever have an affair with . thomas : i 'm not saying that they had an affair . in fact , well , nothing really happened that night . not that shauna did n't want it to . like i 'm telling you , shauna is into my dad , and the more that brooke pushes him away , the more she could be pushing him right into shauna 's arms . shauna : i really admire how committed you are to your children . ridge : of course i 'm committed to him . same way you are to your daughter . shauna : flo is the light of my life . i wish i 'd been a better mother , but , you know , luckily , she does n't hold that against me . ridge : well , we all hope that , right ? that our kids do n't hold our shortcomings as parents , as people , against us . ca n't worry about it . it 's the past . all we can do is be in the present . that 's what i want to do . i want to be there for thomas , and i want to be there for steffy . she loved that little kid . shauna : i know . ridge : when they took her away from her , she just -- i do n't know , something broke inside of her , and ... now there 's just emptiness . shauna : i might be wrong ... but i get the feeling that hope and brooke are n't sensitive to what steffy 's going through . hope : are you really going to go there , steffy ? attacking my family , bringing up old history ? steffy : i 'm just saying how it felt watching you walk out the door with my daughter . hope : my daughter , steffy . my little girl with liam . steffy : and kelly is my little girl with liam . hope : okay , so you 're saying what , that that gives you permission to undermine my relationship with my daughter 's father after everything the three of us have been through ? steffy : i 'm not trying to undermine anyone . in case you have n't noticed , i have given you space to be with your daughter and liam . i 've been focusing on myself , my daughter , going through my own heartbreak . but kelly and i are family with liam , too . she needs her daddy . he loves her , and she loves him . hope : of course he does . liam being with me and beth does n't mean that he loves kelly any less . he 's always , always going to be here for her , steffy . it 's just that liam sees his future with me . steffy : and you 're sure about that ? i think you 're getting way ahead of yourself . hope : because there 's not a ring on my finger yet ? you know how that sounds , steffy ? like -- like you think he 's still fair game , like you can still pursue him . you understand that we 're living together , right ? we 're sharing a bed . steffy : but , like , for how long , though ? it 's not like you made a permanent commitment . hope : that still does n't mean that you get to go behind my back . liam and i , we 're in a relationship , so show some respect , the same kind of respect that i would show you if it were the other way around , not sending little messages with heart emojis and xoxo . like , i 'm not going to tolerate it , steffy . steffy : why were you even on his phone ? hope : it just popped up . steffy : oh , i 'm sure it was . liam : whoa . whoa . hey , guys . hope , what is going on ? zoe : wow . you really got it out for the logans . thomas : do you blame me ? i 've had to watch them infiltrate the forrester family for years . first it was brooke , okay ? my dad , my mom , uh , my sisters , me , we were all happy , and then brooke flirted her way in , and she snatched my dad away , and that 's exactly what hope 's doing now to my sister with liam . you know what ? i feel for hope 's little miss innocent routine . i did , but -- but she 's exactly like her mother , okay ? uh , they do n't care . they do n't care that they hurt us , that my mother was hurt , that my sisters were hurt , that i was hurt . no , all they care about is latching on to a man , and for hope that 's liam . but he and my sister , they have a daughter of their own . they have their own family , and i just hope to god that he realizes his place should be there with steffy and with kelly and not with a logan . liam : hope , what -- what is happening right now ? why are you talking to steffy this way ? steffy : it 's okay , liam . liam : well -- well , no , it 's not okay , given everything that you 've been through . hope , do you realize that , for steffy , it 's as if there was a death in the family ? i mean , as far as she 's concerned , she lost her phoebe , right ? she lost the little girl that she had loved and raised and cared for for months . i mean , i -- i should have been bringing beth over here more . we , as a couple , should have been bringing our daughter over to play with kelly more . i mean , can you -- can you try to show some compassion ? hope : i do feel compassion for steffy . liam : okay . then you got to respect my choice to bring beth over here . hope : no , it 's not about that . it 's about her showing respect for us , for our family . liam : how is she not showing respect for us and our family ? look , we 're all in a tough spot here , right ? i have daughters with each of you . we 're doing our best . hope : i understand that , but if steffy is feeling the way she 's feeling , like she 's stuck in some sort of limbo , then ... steffy : i never said that . hope : okay , well , it still amounts to the same thing , right ? and the one person who can put an end to it is liam , so , liam , can you give us a clear answer once and for all ? who does your heart belong to ? we 're in love . we 're living together . we 're raising our daughter . that does n't mean that you wo n't see kelly . you are an amazing , attentive father to her , but that is where it ends . and you need to be straight with steffy that you see your future with me . you know , i actually -- i -- i think this is good that this is happening , that we are all here and discussing this because obviously there are still some shades of gray and confusion about this matter , so let 's ... set things straight . let 's not give steffy any false hope . okay ? you two are just co- parenting , and the romantic relationship is over . please tell her . what -- i do n't even think this needs saying . liam , we 're in a relationship . we do n't need a piece of paper or a ring to say that . our love speaks for itself , and steffy should respect that . okay ? so i 'm gon na need you to tell her , liam , that -- that , if steffy sees some sort of future with you , it 's misguided . the two of you are just co - parenting , and the romance is over . can you please make that clear to her , liam , please ? it 's the kind thing to do . she deserves to hear that from you . it 's -- it 's the right thing to do so she can move on with her life . so for one and for all , liam , tell steffy it 's over .
steffy hums as she waltzes around holding beth . she tells her that she can nap a little longer and then she and kelly can go with her down to the beach and play in the sand . she tells her that she and her daddy love her so much . liam is back home looking for some papers when hope comes in and is concerned that he did not tell her he was taking beth over to see steffy . he gets a text from steffy and hope picks it up out of his presence . steffy thanks liam for making her day . when liam returns to the living room hope is taking off to do something she forgot . thomas tells zoe that he tried to get back in brooke 's good graces but it did not work . she tried to kill him by pushing him off the cliff and could be in jail right now . zoe thinks thomas is just bitter because hope is with liam . in a flash hope shows up at steffy 's and says she came to get beth . both of them know how hard it is for steffy , but .she saw the text with xoxo emojis . hope makes her point ; he is with her now . thomas tells zoe it is not that unreasonable to think this could be permanent . ridge has already moved out of brooke 's house and there is another woman in his dad 's life . zoe can not believe the other woman is flo 's mother . she would be the last woman he would ever have an affair with . he says shauna is definitely into ridge and the more brooke pushes , the quicker he will land in shauna 's arms . shauna shows up again unannounced at ridge 's office . says she flashed charlie and made sure brooke was not at work or in her parking space . ridge asks what she wants . she quips that is a loaded question . but she thinks she can help him . she needs to tell him someone else knows about the kiss thomas . that does not please ridge and he says she needs to fix that . he is trying to do all he can to get thomas back on path and help him and steffy . this rift with brooke will not help . she puts her hand on his shoulder and says she could be wrong but she does not think brooke will care one way or the other about his kids .

that our kids do n't hold our shortcomings as parents , as people , against us . ca n't worry about it . it 's the past . all we can do is be in the present . that 's what i want to do . i want to be there for thomas , and i want to be there for steffy . she loved that little kid . shauna : i know . ridge : when they took her away from her , she just -- i do n't know , something broke inside of her , and ... now there 's just emptiness . shauna : i might be wrong ... but i get the feeling that hope and brooke are n't sensitive to what steffy 's going through . hope : are you really going to go there , steffy ? attacking my family , bringing up old history ? steffy : i 'm just saying how it felt watching you walk out the door with my daughter . hope : my daughter , steffy . my little girl with liam . steffy : and kelly is my little girl with liam . hope : okay , so you 're saying what , that that gives you permission to undermine my relationship with my daughter 's father after everything the three of us have been through ? steffy : i 'm not trying to undermine anyone . in case you have n't noticed , i have given you space to be with your daughter and liam . i 've been focusing on myself , my daughter , going through my own heartbreak . but kelly and i are family with liam , too . she needs her daddy . he loves her , and she loves him . hope : of course he does . liam being with me and beth does n't mean that he loves kelly any less . he 's always , always going to be here for her , steffy . it 's just that liam sees his future with me . steffy : and you 're sure about that ? i think you 're getting way ahead of yourself . hope : because there 's not a ring on my finger yet ? you know how that sounds , steffy ? like -- like you think he 's still fair game , like you can still pursue him . you understand that we 're living together , right ? we 're sharing a bed . steffy : but , like , for how long , though ? it 's not like you made a permanent commitment . hope : that still does n't mean that you get to go behind my back . liam and i , we 're in a relationship , so show some respect , the same kind of respect that i would show you if it were the other way around , not sending little messages with heart emojis and xoxo . like , i 'm not going to tolerate it , steffy . steffy : why were you even on his phone ? hope : it just popped up . steffy : oh , i 'm sure it was . liam : whoa . whoa . hey , guys . hope , what is going on ? zoe : wow . you really got it out for the logans . thomas : do you blame me ? i 've had to watch them infiltrate the forrester family for years . first it was brooke , okay ? my dad , my mom , uh , my sisters , me , we were all happy , and then brooke flirted her way in , and she snatched my dad away , and that 's exactly what hope 's doing now to my sister with liam . you know what ? i feel for hope 's little miss innocent routine . i did , but -- but she 's exactly like her mother , okay ? uh , they do n't care . they do n't care that they hurt us , that my mother was hurt , that my sisters were hurt , that i was hurt . no , all they care about is latching on to a man , and for hope that 's liam . but he and my sister , they have a daughter of their own . they have their own family , and i just hope to god that he realizes his place should be there with steffy and with kelly and not with a logan . liam : hope , what -- what is happening right now ? why are you talking to steffy this way ? steffy : it 's okay , liam . liam : well -- well , no , it 's not okay , given everything that you 've been through . hope , do you realize that , for steffy , it 's as if there was a death in the family ? i mean , as far as she 's concerned , she lost her phoebe , right ? she lost the little girl that she had loved and raised and cared for for months . i mean , i -- i should have been bringing beth over here more . we , as a couple , should have been bringing our daughter over to play with kelly more . i mean , can you -- can you try to show some compassion ? hope : i do feel compassion for steffy . liam : okay . then you got to respect my choice to bring beth over here . hope : no , it 's not about that . it 's about her showing respect for us , for our family . liam : how is she not showing respect for us and our family ? look , we 're all in a tough spot here , right ? i have daughters with each of you . we 're doing our best . hope : i understand that , but if steffy is feeling the way she 's feeling , like she 's stuck in some sort of limbo , then ... steffy : i never said that . hope : okay , well , it still amounts to the same thing , right ? and the one person who can put an end to it is liam , so , liam , can you give us a clear answer once and for all ? who does your heart belong to ? we 're in love . we 're living together . we 're raising our daughter . that does n't mean that you wo n't see kelly . you are an amazing , attentive father to her , but that is where it ends . and you need to be straight with steffy that you see your future with me . you know , i actually -- i -- i think this is good that this is happening , that we are all here and discussing this because obviously there are still some shades of gray and confusion about this matter , so let 's ... set things straight . let 's not give steffy any false hope . okay ? you two are just co- parenting , and the romantic relationship is over . please tell her . what -- i do n't even think this needs saying . liam , we 're in a relationship . we do n't need a piece of paper or a ring to say that . our love speaks for itself , and steffy should respect that . okay ? so i 'm gon na need you to tell her , liam , that -- that , if steffy sees some sort of future with you , it 's misguided . the two of you are just co - parenting , and the romance is over . can you please make that clear to her , liam , please ? it 's the kind thing to do . she deserves to hear that from you . it 's -- it 's the right thing to do so she can move on with her life . so for one and for all , liam , tell steffy it 's over .Summarize.[/INST]steffy hums as she waltzes around holding beth . she tells her that she can nap a little longer and then she and kelly can go with her down to the beach and play in the sand . she tells her that she and her daddy love her so much . liam is back home looking for some papers when hope comes in and is concerned that he did not tell her he was taking beth over to see steffy . he gets a text from steffy and hope picks it up out of his presence . steffy thanks liam for making her day . when liam returns to the living room hope is taking off to do something she forgot . thomas tells zoe that he tried to get back in brooke 's good graces but it did not work . she tried to kill him by pushing him off the cliff and could be in jail right now . zoe thinks thomas is just bitter because hope is with liam . in a flash hope shows up at steffy 's and says she came to get beth . both of them know how hard it is for steffy , but .she saw the text with xoxo emojis . hope makes her point ; he is with her now . thomas tells zoe it is not that unreasonable to think this could be permanent . ridge has already moved out of brooke 's house and there is another woman in his dad 's life . zoe can not believe the other woman is flo 's mother . she would be the last woman he would ever have an affair with . he says shauna is definitely into ridge and the more brooke pushes , the quicker he will land in shauna 's arms . shauna shows up again unannounced at ridge 's office . says she flashed charlie and made sure brooke was not at work or in her parking space . ridge asks what she wants . she quips that is a loaded question . but she thinks she can help him . she needs to tell him someone else knows about the kiss thomas . that does not please ridge and he says she needs to fix that . he is trying to do all he can to get thomas back on path and help him and steffy . this rift with brooke will not help . she puts her hand on his shoulder and says she could be wrong but she does not think brooke will care one way or the other about his kids .</s>

jason : maybe i was wrong to pressure michael to keep quiet about killing a.j . sam : no , forget about what dr. thomas says , jason . he does not know you and he does n't know your heart . come on , that guy is so off base ; he does n't even think you have one . but you feel more intensely than anyone i have ever met . you are a kind and loving man . and if you do not believe anything else i ever tell you , believe that . [ scene_break ] maxie : do n't go . jesse : you should be sleeping . you need your rest . maxie : like you do n't ? jesse : i have to keep an eye out . maxie : well , i 'm not going to be closing mine anytime soon , so you can just use them , too . [ thunder ] jesse : ca n't relax ? maxie : i 'm afraid . jesse : i 'm sorry , maxie . i should 've never dragged you into this mess . maxie : i 'm not afraid for me . i 'm scared for you . [ thunder ] [ scene_break ] jax : are you -- are you feeling this on some kind of instinctual level where women just know that they 're pregnant ? elizabeth : no . no , it 's nothing like that . i would tell you . jax : well , then my position remains unchanged . i do n't want you to carry the child . elizabeth : the surrogacy has already caused so many problems , and it 's just beginning . jax , i need you to know , if i am pregnant , there 's no way i 'm terminating . [ scene_break ] carly : what is that ? are you trying to prove you can be as -- as irrational and violent as sonny ? have we entered some kind of twilight zone of negative macho competition ? lorenzo : well , maybe it 's the only way to get your attention . it worked so well for sonny . carly : why do you keep making this about sonny ? my problem is with reese . that woman has an agenda . i thought you agreed with me . lorenzo : it just occurs to me that you would n't be so nearly obsessive about exposing reese if she was sleeping with someone else , like jax or ric . carly : i do n't deny it ! that 's what i -- that is my whole point . she zeroed in on sonny and michael and bobbie . it 's like she wants to live my life better than i do . [ scene_break ] reese : what kind of question is that ? i have no reason to -- to beat carly . she 's the one that 's in the fight , not me . sonny : well , it 's just the way you said you -- you would be damned if you let her win . i mean , it sounds like your boxing gloves are laced up as tight as hers . reese : it 's just a poor choice of words . i mean , come on . there 's no big revelation of some sinister intent . i just -- maybe that explanation is too simple . maybe you want carly to be right about me so you have an excuse to get back with her . sonny : what do i got to do , make a tape so i do n't have to repeat myself a thousand times ? i 'm not getting back with carly . i mean , she knows that . that 's what this is about . reese : obviously , i missed something . sonny : well , you know , it 's easy to do . carly 's good . and believe it or not , she can be subtle when she wants to be . she does not like to share , all right ? and when she considers something hers , you know , god -- you know , she holds on for dear life . god forbid anybody tries to take it away from her . like jason -- if he goes off and marries sam and lives in a house far away with kids , i can guarantee you carly will barge into his house and turn his life inside out . reese : and she 's not even ever been married to jason . sonny : no . no . exactly . she 's mad because i am with you . she 's like a -- like a spoiled little girl who 's throwing a tantrum because somebody touched one of her dolls . she 's trying to cause trouble between us . reese : hmm . you know , and we almost let her . we did . yeah . you 're right , carly is good , and she did n't even have to try very hard . sonny : you know , i should -- i should be better at this because i 've had a lot of practice . reese : you should be . sonny : but i 'll tell you what , i 'm going work on it , all right ? yeah . [ reese laughs ] sonny : and in the meantime , you know , can we just move on ? because i do n't want to fight over , you know -- what is it that you said ? a poor choice of words ? reese : yeah . sonny : right . reese : i 'm really glad to hear it . sonny : now , look , if you want to -- if you want to , you know , give carly a taste of her own medicine and beat her at something then , hey , you know what ? who am i to stop you ? but i got to tell you right now , the best way to get back at carly is not to engage . believe me , i know . i 've tried . so why do n't we forget carly , ok , and concentrate on just -- just each other . reese : well , that 's going to be difficult to do right now , considering that we 're stranded at her house . sonny : yeah . well , we 're in a stable . [ reese laughs ] sonny : we 're in here with , you know -- reese : hay . sonny : cut off from every -- yeah , hay . why do n't we just -- i do n't know -- make the best of it ? reese : make what ? [ scene_break ] [ thunder ] carly : i am not jealous of reese . i do not care that she is sleeping with sonny . lorenzo : you know , the more you say that , the less believable it sounds . just one more lie to throw on the trash heap with the others . carly : you 're in no position to throw stones . lorenzo : you know , that 's true . i have done my share of lying . but that was before i made vows to love and honor you and protect the bond between us . that means telling the truth , and that is what i have done from that minute until now . i guess i had expectations to get that from my wife , if that 's possible . carly : ok , i 'm sorry . ok , i told one lie in the moment because i wanted to avoid a fight and because i knew you were going to misinterpret what i -- lorenzo : oh , stop the justifications , carly . i went into this marriage with my eyes wide open , and i knew that you and sonny were just a tangled mess of loose ends and that i would have to be patient to give you the time to let go of your past so that you could come to me with an unencumbered heart . my justification was the payoff would all be worth it . and you are making me think that somehow i was wrong . carly : what are you saying ? lorenzo : i 'm saying that if you married me to pay back sonny for allowing another woman into his bed , then you need to tell me now so that we can walk away before more than a mirror gets broken . [ scene_break ] jax : can i speak from a strictly selfish point of view ? elizabeth : please . jax : i hope that you are pregnant , because i could n't think of a better person to carry this child . elizabeth : thank you , jax . that 's very sweet of you . jax : well , it 's true . you 're strong and you 're passionate . you 're smart . i 'm just sorry that this is causing so many problems between you and lucky . elizabeth : i never imagined how difficult this would be for him . i mean , maybe i should have anticipated it . but the point is , this -- this agreement would benefit all of us , including lucky , and i just ca n't understand for the life of me why he feels so threatened by it . jax : men . you know , we 're naturally insecure . if the positions were reversed ; if courtney were carrying lucky 's child , i 'd -- i 'd probably have a few issues of my own . [ scene_break ] jesse : forget about me . think about your own safety . if i ca n't get you to the authorities before murphy catches up -- maxie : wait , the authorities ? does that mean that you 're going to turn yourself in ? jesse : i have n't made my mind up . but you definitely will . maxie : no , i 'm not leaving you . jesse : i wo n't be the reason you die , maxie . maxie : but -- jesse : listen to me . murphy has me so completely framed that no one will ever believe what i say . you 're the police commissioner 's daughter . people , especially mac , will believe what you say , and murphy knows that . he 's going down in flames unless he makes sure you never tell what you know . maxie : wait , you think murphy 's going to try and kill me ? jesse : i know he will . maxie : well , then we 're just going to have to be smarter than him , that 's all . jesse : why do you keep standing with me in the face of insurmountable odds ? i do n't deserve it . all i 've done since the first day i met you is put you in danger . maxie : well , am i supposed to be sorry that you walked into my hospital room that day ? because i 'm not . and you can forget it . i never will be . [ scene_break ] jason : my first memory is waking up in the hospital . you know , strangers coming in and out , claiming to be my family . my girlfriend , you know , always asking the same question -- `` do you remember me ? do you know who you are ? `` and always the same look of disappointment when i could n't answer and did n't remember . it was -- it was like it was hurting them to see me . so i avoided all of them , including the doctors who kept telling me i was hopeless . i met sonny . i built a life where the injury did n't matter , where it actually worked in my favor . because i do n't -- you know , i do n't really feel fear , so that makes me good at my job . but michael feels things . you know , he 's scared and he 's confused , and i have no -- i have no frame of reference . if i do n't understand what he 's dealing with because i 've never felt it myself , then i 've got nothing to offer . you know , it 's the first time that i 'm failing michael , and it just makes me feel like i could -- you know , i could fail you . sam : are you cheating on me ? jason : no . sam : no ? would you ? jason : never . sam : never . have you lied to me , used me , treated me like i was cheap or irrelevant ? jason : no . sam : no . then what makes you think you could fail me ? [ thunder ] jason : because i have brain damage , and i pretend it does n't exist , but it does . i do n't think or feel like a normal person . sam : like a normal person ? jason , what is normal anyway , huh ? normal is way overrated . until i met you , normal meant being used and dumped . it meant lying to myself to protect my heart and having it stomped on anyway . what is so great about that ? jason : if i could understand how michael feels , i could help him . sam : you have been helping him , jason . you help him every day . you are his touchstone . without you , that little boy would be so lost right now , and i do n't care what a bunch of self - important doctors say . i do n't even care how you feel deep down inside , because when i look at you , i do not see damage of any kind . i see an extraordinary human being who feels as profoundly as anyone i have ever known . i experience your capacity for love every single day of my life . i saw it in your eyes and i felt it in your touch when that baby we wanted so badly was inside of me . and i saw your grief when we lost her , and your sorrow mirrored mine and so did your healing . so do not -- do not talk to me about a bunch of doctors who do n't know you say about your inability to love . because i know better . [ scene_break ] jax : men put a lot of stock in pride , and sometimes we trip over that when we do n't think we 're fulfilling our -- our traditional role . you know , inadequacy can turn to anger and then to frustration , which turns to more anger , and then before you know it you 're trapped in this vicious cycle . elizabeth : hmm . sounds like the voice of experience . jax : yeah , yeah , i 've been there myself . but in my case , the -- the dependency was brought on by a physical injury . in lucky 's , it 's financial which , you know , is still the same emotion . you know , i 'm sure lucky feels the need that he has to provide , and now you 've taken that away from him , which is a huge ego blow . not to mention , you know , the way you 're providing -- by carrying another man 's child . elizabeth : cameron is another man 's child . jax : yes , but cameron 's father is dead , so there 's room for lucky in his life . maybe that 's one of the reasons why you and lucky bond -- you know , cameron 's need to see lucky as a father figure . elizabeth : yeah , and how willing he is to assume that role . jax : i 'm just sorry that this has caused problems for you . i really am . elizabeth : no , jax , none of this is your fault . i wanted to be a surrogate for you and courtney . i just -- i really hope lucky can get past his reservations and be with me through this experience . but if he ca n't -- i mean , if what we have is n't solid enough to see us through -- i guess it 's better we know now . [ scene_break ] carly : are you telling me that after a grand total of one month together you want a divorce ? lorenzo : i want to know why you married me -- the truth . and if it was yet another way of lashing out at sonny then , yes , i want a divorce . carly : i married you , even though michael begged me not to , even though my little boy refuses to live in the house with me . i am your wife , even though it put distance between me and jason , the person i trusted most in this world , even though that there is a rift between courtney that may never be fully repaired . lorenzo : all right , i realize you 've made sacrifices . carly : if i wanted to go back to sonny , i would be back with sonny . but i did n't want to go back to that pathetic , bitter cycle of love and betrayal and anger . i wanted something better . i did n't want to be in a marriage where i was always sorry and wrong . i 'm not perfect , lorenzo . i never claimed to be perfect . i only claim to love you , but maybe flawed love is n't good enough . maybe you can only truly love an idea . [ scene_break ] [ horse whinnies ] reese : caroline ? sonny : it 's ok . i 'm right here .

[ scene_break ] jesse : when i came into your room , the only thing i was thinking about was finding a place to hide . then i looked over and i saw you . i remember moving to your bed . the whole time i was screaming at myself inside , `` stop . `` it was reckless and dumb . i could n't afford to be seen , but i wanted to be there when you opened your eyes . i knew they 'd be the most amazing blue . i should 've kept running . we both would be better off . maxie : speak for yourself . [ thunder ] jesse : you 're stranded in a cabin . a hurricane is coming down , and so is a bad cop that wants you dead . what part of any of that is an improvement on your quality of life ? maxie : the part when i 'm with you . i believe in you , jesse . you are a good person and i want to help you prove that . and i want us to come out of this on the other side and have a chance to get to know each other in the real world , in real time . but if that 's not meant to happen and we 're about to die , there 's no one else i 'd want to be with right now .

[ scene_break ] reese : caroline was my best friend . we were both only children , so for a while we were as close as sisters . sonny : what happened ? reese : she betrayed me utterly and completely . i was devastated , furious . i mean , i hated her with every fiber of my being for making lies out of what i thought we used to share . sonny : i understand about betrayal . [ thunder ] sonny : it 's like broken glass . you can pick up all the pieces , try to put them back together , but in the end the damage is done . ca n't fix it . reese : so , what about forgiveness , huh ? you know , letting the hurt heal and -- and turning a new page ? sonny : yeah , well , i 'd love to be able to do that . but forgiveness is not something that i do very well . every time i 've been betrayed i kind of -- i shut down inside , you know ? reese : yeah . sonny : and i ca n't get past it . there 's no going back .

[ thunder ] emily : look , lucky , nikolas and i ca n't seem to get back to what we used to have . but you and elizabeth -- you did . and if you throw that away because of your stupid pride or any other reason , you 're going to end up regretting it for the rest of your life .

[ scene_break ] lorenzo : you know how much i love you . carly : which version of me , lorenzo ? the one in your head , or the flesh - and- blood version sitting right in front of you ? you worked so hard to make me your wife . i never saw anyone so single - minded in purpose . but did you ever stop to think about what getting married really means ? it 's a long , hard road . you 're constantly renegotiating the terms ; you drive each other crazy . you get on each other 's nerves but you stick it out . and you hang in there anyway . or -- you decide it 's not worth it and you walk away . maybe that 's what you want to do . lorenzo : i have thought about those things before . it 's why i never got married before . my love for you is no illusion . it is the driving force of my life . i love you for all your contradictions and your complications . i do n't expect you to be perfect . i just want you to be honest with me about one thing . how you feel about me .

[ scene_break ] [ thunder ] carly : i am not jealous of reese . i do not care that she is sleeping with sonny . lorenzo : you know , the more you say that , the less believable it sounds . just one more lie to throw on the trash heap with the others . carly : you 're in no position to throw stones . lorenzo : you know , that 's true . i have done my share of lying . but that was before i made vows to love and honor you and protect the bond between us . that means telling the truth , and that is what i have done from that minute until now . i guess i had expectations to get that from my wife , if that 's possible . carly : ok , i 'm sorry . ok , i told one lie in the moment because i wanted to avoid a fight and because i knew you were going to misinterpret what i -- lorenzo : oh , stop the justifications , carly . i went into this marriage with my eyes wide open , and i knew that you and sonny were just a tangled mess of loose ends and that i would have to be patient to give you the time to let go of your past so that you could come to me with an unencumbered heart . my justification was the payoff would all be worth it . and you are making me think that somehow i was wrong . carly : what are you saying ? lorenzo : i 'm saying that if you married me to pay back sonny for allowing another woman into his bed , then you need to tell me now so that we can walk away before more than a mirror gets broken .

[ scene_break ] jesse : forget about me . think about your own safety . if i ca n't get you to the authorities before murphy catches up -- maxie : wait , the authorities ? does that mean that you 're going to turn yourself in ? jesse : i have n't made my mind up . but you definitely will . maxie : no , i 'm not leaving you . jesse : i wo n't be the reason you die , maxie . maxie : but -- jesse : listen to me . murphy has me so completely framed that no one will ever believe what i say . you 're the police commissioner 's daughter . people , especially mac , will believe what you say , and murphy knows that . he 's going down in flames unless he makes sure you never tell what you know . maxie : wait , you think murphy 's going to try and kill me ? jesse : i know he will . maxie : well , then we 're just going to have to be smarter than him , that 's all . jesse : why do you keep standing with me in the face of insurmountable odds ? i do n't deserve it . all i 've done since the first day i met you is put you in danger . maxie : well , am i supposed to be sorry that you walked into my hospital room that day ? because i 'm not . and you can forget it . i never will be . [ scene_break ] jason : my first memory is waking up in the hospital . you know , strangers coming in and out , claiming to be my family . my girlfriend , you know , always asking the same question -- `` do you remember me ? do you know who you are ? `` and always the same look of disappointment when i could n't answer and did n't remember . it was -- it was like it was hurting them to see me . so i avoided all of them , including the doctors who kept telling me i was hopeless . i met sonny . i built a life where the injury did n't matter , where it actually worked in my favor . because i do n't -- you know , i do n't really feel fear , so that makes me good at my job . but michael feels things . you know , he 's scared and he 's confused , and i have no -- i have no frame of reference . if i do n't understand what he 's dealing with because i 've never felt it myself , then i 've got nothing to offer . you know , it 's the first time that i 'm failing michael , and it just makes me feel like i could -- you know , i could fail you . sam : are you cheating on me ? jason : no . sam : no ? would you ? jason : never . sam : never . have you lied to me , used me , treated me like i was cheap or irrelevant ? jason : no . sam : no . then what makes you think you could fail me ? [ thunder ] jason : because i have brain damage , and i pretend it does n't exist , but it does . i do n't think or feel like a normal person . sam : like a normal person ? jason , what is normal anyway , huh ? normal is way overrated . until i met you , normal meant being used and dumped . it meant lying to myself to protect my heart and having it stomped on anyway . what is so great about that ? jason : if i could understand how michael feels , i could help him . sam : you have been helping him , jason . you help him every day . you are his touchstone . without you , that little boy would be so lost right now , and i do n't care what a bunch of self - important doctors say . i do n't even care how you feel deep down inside , because when i look at you , i do not see damage of any kind . i see an extraordinary human being who feels as profoundly as anyone i have ever known . i experience your capacity for love every single day of my life . i saw it in your eyes and i felt it in your touch when that baby we wanted so badly was inside of me . and i saw your grief when we lost her , and your sorrow mirrored mine and so did your healing . so do not -- do not talk to me about a bunch of doctors who do n't know you say about your inability to love . because i know better . [ scene_break ] jax : men put a lot of stock in pride , and sometimes we trip over that when we do n't think we 're fulfilling our -- our traditional role . you know , inadequacy can turn to anger and then to frustration , which turns to more anger , and then before you know it you 're trapped in this vicious cycle . elizabeth : hmm . sounds like the voice of experience . jax : yeah , yeah , i 've been there myself . but in my case , the -- the dependency was brought on by a physical injury . in lucky 's , it 's financial which , you know , is still the same emotion . you know , i 'm sure lucky feels the need that he has to provide , and now you 've taken that away from him , which is a huge ego blow . not to mention , you know , the way you 're providing -- by carrying another man 's child . elizabeth : cameron is another man 's child . jax : yes , but cameron 's father is dead , so there 's room for lucky in his life . maybe that 's one of the reasons why you and lucky bond -- you know , cameron 's need to see lucky as a father figure . elizabeth : yeah , and how willing he is to assume that role . jax : i 'm just sorry that this has caused problems for you . i really am . elizabeth : no , jax , none of this is your fault . i wanted to be a surrogate for you and courtney . i just -- i really hope lucky can get past his reservations and be with me through this experience . but if he ca n't -- i mean , if what we have is n't solid enough to see us through -- i guess it 's better we know now . [ scene_break ] carly : are you telling me that after a grand total of one month together you want a divorce ? lorenzo : i want to know why you married me -- the truth . and if it was yet another way of lashing out at sonny then , yes , i want a divorce . carly : i married you , even though michael begged me not to , even though my little boy refuses to live in the house with me . i am your wife , even though it put distance between me and jason , the person i trusted most in this world , even though that there is a rift between courtney that may never be fully repaired . lorenzo : all right , i realize you 've made sacrifices . carly : if i wanted to go back to sonny , i would be back with sonny . but i did n't want to go back to that pathetic , bitter cycle of love and betrayal and anger . i wanted something better . i did n't want to be in a marriage where i was always sorry and wrong . i 'm not perfect , lorenzo . i never claimed to be perfect . i only claim to love you , but maybe flawed love is n't good enough . maybe you can only truly love an idea .

[ scene_break ] jesse : when i came into your room , the only thing i was thinking about was finding a place to hide . then i looked over and i saw you . i remember moving to your bed . the whole time i was screaming at myself inside , `` stop . `` it was reckless and dumb . i could n't afford to be seen , but i wanted to be there when you opened your eyes . i knew they 'd be the most amazing blue . i should 've kept running . we both would be better off . maxie : speak for yourself . [ thunder ] jesse : you 're stranded in a cabin . a hurricane is coming down , and so is a bad cop that wants you dead . what part of any of that is an improvement on your quality of life ? maxie : the part when i 'm with you . i believe in you , jesse . you are a good person and i want to help you prove that . and i want us to come out of this on the other side and have a chance to get to know each other in the real world , in real time . but if that 's not meant to happen and we 're about to die , there 's no one else i 'd want to be with right now .

steffy : yeah . liam : okay . so thomas knows hope , right ? he knows she 's probably up there right now feeling horrible about all this , and thomas knows if he manipulates douglas enough , then hope 's gon na crack . steffy : and she 's gon na go back to him ? liam : exactly . ridge : thomas , i 'm not trying to start a fight with you . i just want you to look me in the eye and tell me about this proposal . eric : thomas , you have to admit this just came out of the blue , kind of . now , i 'm -- i 'm willing to welcome zoe into the family if you want to start a life with her , but if there 's something else going on here -- ridge : something that has to do with hope , maybe . thomas : okay , look , hope does n't want to be with me , all right ? the only place that i fit into her life is as co - parent or designer of her line , okay ? i have to accept that . ridge : and we had to accept that you were obsessed with hope for a very long time . so tell me this has nothing to do with her . tell me this has nothing to do with hope . thomas : okay , you wan na know if it has to do with hope ? yes . it does . it has to do with hope . it has to do with getting over hope . i have this beautiful , incredibly sexy woman that wants to marry me . do n't keep pushing me on this and questioning my feelings for zoe . ridge : we 're not questioning & that at all . it just seems that you 're rushing . thomas : would n't you ? i mean , look , you 've got this beautiful woman that wants to marry me . it 's -- it 's amazing . she 's gon na help me move on . i mean , what , you think i should turn her away ? ridge : i do n't think any of those things . it just seems that all of it is a little suspicious . thomas : i am so sick and tired of all of the suspicions , okay ? i 'm tired of liam and brooke constantly questioning me . they want me to move on , and then they question me when i do . i 'm sick and tired of all of that . i do n't want to listen to them anymore . i want to move on with my life . i want to get on past what i had with hope and move forward here with zoe . okay ? ridge : that 's all i wanted to hear . thomas : [ sighs ] okay . look ... i need to go check on my son . quinn : thomas . zoe : is everything all right ? thomas : yeah . why ? quinn : uh , 'cause we saw you talking to ridge and eric and it seemed a little intense . thomas : no . no , just , uh , just dad being dad . he 's really happy for me . uh , they both are . zoe : hmm . thomas : i 'm very lucky . but i need to go check on douglas . is that okay ? zoe : yeah . of course . just , uh , hurry back . thomas : okay . zoe : [ giggles ] quinn : so are you excited to start planning your wedding ? zoe : i am . quinn : yeah ? zoe : i 'm real excited . quinn : yeah . zoe : i really did not even see this coming . douglas : please , mommy , marry daddy so you wo n't go away . hope : sweetie , i understand why you 're afraid that might happen , but i promise you it won't . we 're a family , always . and when your dad marries zoe , he 's just going to be adding to that family . it 'll just be one more adult to look after you . you 're not going to see less of me , okay ? douglas : but i 'd see even more of you if daddy married you instead . we could live together . daddy loves you . he told me . he wants to marry you , not zoe . we could be a family with beth . please , say yes . tell daddy you want to marry him . please , mommy .Summarize.[/INST]everyone is shocked by thomas ' proposal to zoe , including her . she tells him that she would like to hear him say `` i love you `` before she answers . eventually , he does tell her that , so she accepts . douglas runs upstairs , with hope following . liam and brooke confer . they ca n't believe how thomas is obviously using douglas and zoe to get to hope . eric and ridge welcome zoe into the family . eric and steffy take photos for social media . later , eric and ridge asks thomas if he 's serious about this proposal . it seems a little rushed , and it was n't too long ago that he was obsessed with hope . thomas explains that he loves zoe now and that he 's moved on from hope . brooke warns zoe that she should leave now because thomas is using her . liam and brooke both chastise thomas for what he 's doing . liam warns him that he wo n't have hope . liam also points out to steffy what thomas is up to . upstairs , hope assures douglas that she 'll always be his mommy , even if zoe and thomas get married . he begs her to marry his dad instead because he loves her . thomas walks in just as douglas is saying this , and hope looks up . they both have awkward looks on their faces .</s>

( giggles ) ridge : let me check out where that messenger is . katie : hey . brooke : hi . i went to look for you in your office earlier . katie : i was with bill . ridge : he 's still taking quite an interest in you , huh ? katie : yeah , he 's also interested in something else -- forrester creations . [ scene_break ] bill : getting close , very , very close . the forrester check has to be in the bank by noon . justin : you 've got a plan in action . bill : do n't i always have a plan in action ? justin : timing is everything , as they say . bill : that 's what they say . so it 's a big day for you , huh , finding out you 're marcus ' daddy ? justin : what a trip , right ? bill : well , better you than me . justin : did n't quite happen the way i pictured it , but ... bill : well , look on the bright side . you wo n't have to change any diapers . justin : i 'd give anything to go back in time and raise my son from birth , but i 'm -- i 'm grateful to have him with me now . you know , i think i 'm going to stay in l.a. , get to know him , shoot some hoops , go to some laker games , all the things i 've always wanted to do with a son . [ scene_break ] marcus : ( sighs ) i never thought that the day would come -- meeting my biological father . donna : it 's a lot to take in . how do you feel ? marcus : ( sighs ) i do n't know . it 's weird . um , i did n't think i wanted to know who he was . i did n't think i cared . but now that i 've met him -- donna : you 're -- you 're glad that he 's come into your life . marcus : yeah . donna : good . then i 'm happy for you . come here . marcus : me , as well , mom . but , you know , finding you was the best thing that ever happened to me . donna : ( sighs ) marcus : and now i found my dad , too . donna : yeah . ( sighs ) marcus : eric . donna : yeah , i know . he 's drawing up the adoption papers right now . marcus : well , how 's he gon na feel when he finds out about this ? i mean -- donna : i do n't -- i do n't know .

[ scene_break ] brooke : bill spencer 's after our company again ? ridge : i 'm surprised he would even admit that to you . brooke : he must have known that you 'd come tell us about this . i know this is hard for you , katie . you thought bill had changed . katie : well , this is n't personal , brooke . it 's business . bill made a very strong argument for taking over forrester , and i think you both should hear it . [ scene_break ] ridge : so what are you saying ? we should just hand our company over to bill spencer ? katie : i 'm saying you should listen to what he proposed , that some of his ideas made a lot of sense . ridge : well , katie , i 'm not interested in any ideas that that guy has concerning our company . katie : i think you should listen , ridge . you ca n't deny that forrester 's having a difficult time . if bill were to take over the company -- ridge : it 's not gon na happen . katie : if he were to buy us out , forrester would have the backing of the entire spencer media empire -- unlimited p.r . , world - wide exposure , not to mention a rock - solid financial foundation . brooke : this is ridiculous . i ca n't even believe that you would go along with this . ridge : forrester creations is not for sale , and it 's never going to be . do you hear me ? bill spencer is never gon na get his hands on this company . [ scene_break ] bill : well , congratulations . i 'm , uh , i 'm happy for you . you got yourself a son today . you gon na make me godfather ? ( chuckles ) you know what ? marcus is lucky to have you as a dad . and , uh , he seems to be a pretty good kid . justin : yeah . ( sighs ) he 's a great kid . bill : what 's wrong ? you 're worried you 're not gon na cut it as a father ? justin : no . i 'm just afraid i found out about marcus too late . bill : oh , come on . you 'll make up for lost time . justin : no , it 's not that . it 's eric forrester . he 's adopting marcus today . in fact , they 're probably signing the paperwork right now . [ scene_break ] eric : you met your father ? marcus : yes . this morning . eric : how ? how did that happen ? donna : he -- he came to l.a. recently . as you know , justin -- th - th - that 's his name -- he was n't aware that he had a son . well , i - i did n't know what to do , eric . i mean , i wanted to tell both of you , but marcus insisted that he did n't want to know his biological father . eric : hmm . donna : but -- but justin figured out that he was his father , and ... ( sighs ) he 's a really , really good man . and i - i did n't want to deprive marcus or justin the chance of getting to know one another and ... eric , i 'm so sorry . i just hate that this is happening now , and you 're about to adopt marcus , and i just hope that you understand . eric : huh . huh . wow . this man -- you -- your father -- uh , does he seem like a ... ( sighs ) does he seem like a good guy ? and you 're okay with this ? marcus : yes , i am . eric : well , then so am i . donna : ( sighs ) you 're not upset ? eric : no . no . well , uh - uh - uh -- this must be incredible for you . i mean , meeting your father after all this time . well , tell me about him . what -- in marcus : well , he -- he works for bill spencer . eric : he works for -- all right , i 'm not gon na hold that against him . donna : oh , eric . despite the company he keeps , he -- he 's a kind and decent man . he -- he 's always ... ( sighs ) always wanted children . it just never really happened for him , and -- well , until now . he wants to be part of marcus 's life . marcus : and i would like to get to know him as well . eric : good . well , the question is , are we gon na be needing these adoption papers ? [ scene_break ] bill : so your long - lost son not only works at forrester creations . he is about to become a forrester himself . i guess your world just got a lot more complicated , did n't it ? justin : like yours when you got involved with katie logan . ( knocking on door ) bill : come in . hillary : michael galey from the bank is here . bill : good . send him in . bill : michael , it 's been a while . always good to see the money man face - to- face . this is my right hand justin barber . michael : good to meet you . justin : pleasure . michael : so you asked to see me . are you dissatisfied with our service in any way ? bill : you are here , because if my information is correct , and it always is , this could be a monumental day for your bank and for me . i believe it was 12 : 00 noon when i called and asked you to come over here . had you received the forresters ' payment yet ? if not , they 're in default on their loan , which means you 're going to have to foreclose , and i 'm going to buy forrester creations . [ scene_break ] brooke : you would have to be crazy think that we would ever let bill spencer control this company . katie : i 'm just telling you what bill was saying . brooke : well , it seems like you 're agreeing with him . katie : ( sighs ) brooke : i think dating bill was n't such a good idea . i started believing that he had genuine feelings for you , but now i 'm not so sure . katie : what the hell is that supposed to mean ? brooke : just be careful , katie . katie : bill wants controlling interest of the company to bail us out . ridge : we do n't need him to bail us out . katie : really , ridge ? he would keep us all onboard . ridge : oh , how generous . how very generous . it 's not gon na happen , katie . we are not handing our company over to bill spencer . katie : i understand your concerns . i really do , but bill made some very valid points . we 're barely breaking even here . our clothes are n't exactly flying off the racks , because people ca n't afford to buy them . if we ca n't sell clothes , we ca n't stay afloat . if bill owned the company -- brooke : okay , wait . ridge and i run the company with eric . so tell me , katie , if bill were to buy the company , who would he put in charge ? you ? his girlfriend ? brooke : ( laughs ) [ scene_break ] eric : well , your head must be spinning right now , meeting your -- your father for the first time after all these years . i mean , i - i -- this must be ... marcus : ( sighs ) eric : very emotional for you . marcus : it 's -- it 's been a very interesting day , i might add . eric : ( chuckles ) marcus : it 's definitely thrown me for a loop . eric : i would understand if you need a little more time to sort of process all this . and -- and , uh , i would also understand if -- if , uh , if this changes things for you . marcus : you mean about the adoption . eric : yes . marcus : ( sighs ) eric , ever since you found out that i 'm donna 's son , you 've been like a father to me -- welcoming me into the family , giving me more responsibility at forrester , treating me like i 'm already your son . i mean , do n't get me wrong . meeting my biological dad , it was cool . he seemed like an okay guy . it 'll give me a chance to get to know him better . but you and my mom are together . you 're solid . and i know that this adoption means so much to her . no man , and i mean no man has ever been there for me like the way you have . for the three of us to be together , a real family , legally , well , that would just be huge for my mom and me . so i understand if things have changed for you . eric : ( sighs ) no . no , they have n't . not at all . i would like very much to have you officially be a member of the forrester family . so all we really have to do is sign the papers . marcus : all right . ( chuckles ) eric : ( chuckles ) good . come here . sign this right here . here . eric : there . now ... you are officially marcus forrester . ( chuckles ) donna : ( chuckles ) eric : ( mouthing words ) [ scene_break ] michael : you want me to foreclose on forrester creations ? bill : well , is n't that what a bank does when a client defaults on a loan ? michael : we do n't treat our long - term clients like that . the forresters have been good friends to this bank for years . bill : well , not anymore . it 's a bad loan , michael , and you know it . you sweat it out every month wondering if the forresters will make their payments . now that 's got to weigh on you . there 's a lot of unemployed bankers out there . no time for job insecurity . michael : what is your point ? bill : the forresters did n't meet the terms of their loan . they 're in default . you have to act in the best interest of the bank , not to mention you own best interests . i took the liberty of having these papers drawn up for the sale of forrester creations to me . it 's our standard asset purchase agreement securing my commitment to buy forrester creations after the foreclosure . i am prepared to sign . all you have to do is sign on behalf of the bank . i will then wire over the funds , and it will be a done deal . michael : give me the pen . bill : you 're making the right move , mike . ( intercom buzzes ) bill : yes , hillary ? hillary : mr. spencer , katie logan is here . bill : wonderful . send her in . all right , gentlemen , i believe this concludes our business . mike , i will have the signed documents over to you shortly . ( door closes ) bill : hi , beautiful . katie : hey . bill : twice in one day . why am i so lucky ? katie : maybe i just missed you . bill : mm . katie : mm . bill : what ? katie : i - i stopped by forrester . i ran your proposal by ridge and brooke . bill : you told them ? katie : yeah . i thought you had some good points , and i thought that they should hear them from me . bill : they wo n't sell . katie : no . bill : well , what is it ? what else is going on ? katie : oh , it 's just something that brooke said as i was leaving . she , uh , she asked who you would put in charge if you took over the company . me ? katie ? your girlfriend ? and then she and ridge laughed . bill : they laughed at you ? katie : i 'm sure they were n't trying to be mean , but they seemed to think it was real funny . whatever . it 's no big deal . bill : no , katie , it is a big deal . without you , forrester creations would n't have hung on this long , all right ? and if ridge and brooke ca n't see that ... ( sighs ) look , you are never going to get the respect you deserve as long as eric , ridge and brooke are running that company . join forces with me . bill : look . the bank 's already signed off . the stroke of a pen , and forrester creations is ours . katie : would n't that be stabbing my sister in the back ? bill : the same sister who just insulted you ? laughed at the thought of you running forrester creations ? katie , it 's time you stood up for yourself , reached your full potential . all i have to do is sign those papers , and forrester creations is ours . katie : do n't do it . do n't do it . please . for me . do n't -- do n't sign those papers . bill : ( sighs )Summarize.[/INST]ridge gets a phone call from the bank . the forrester loan is due by noon and the messenger is still not there with the money . ridge assures the banker that it will be . ridge and brooke speak with katie who advises they should at least listen to bill spencer 's offer that could save the company . ridge is adamant that he will never get his hands on the company . justin shares with bill that he is happy that he has found he had a son after all these years . bill calls the banker to his office and notifies him that it is his understanding that the forrester 's have not repaid their loan so they are in default . at noon , he will make that payment and take over forrester . eric is ready to sign the adoption papers when marcus has to explain that he just found out justin is his biological father . he 's a kind and decent man and wants to be part of marcus 's life . eric is happy for marcus and laments that perhaps this changes things and he needs more time to process all of this .</s>

[ scene_break ] chelsea : daniel 's wife died , and he was n't able to save her . kate : oh . oh , i see . chelsea : which is why he does n't want to get involved with me . kate : oh , honey , but i know he cares about you . i - i - i could see that by looking at him , and he felt incredibly guilty about what happened to you . chelsea : i do n't want him to feel guilty . i want him to give us a chance . i just do n't know what to do . kate : [ sighs ] well , you know that i would do anything for you . chelsea : okay . then help me . please , just tell me what to do . kate : i do n't think that it 's a relationship with daniel that you need . in fact , in my opinion , i think you should get as far away from him as you possibly can . [ scene_break ] marlena : i do n't think that i can help you here . if you genuinely love somebody , it 's very hard to resist those feelings , no matter how hard you try . daniel : not what i want to hear . marlena : i see that . what 's got you scared ? daniel : i guess i just , uh , i want a guarantee . marlena : we 'd all like a guarantee . it does n't work that way . daniel : [ chuckles ] marlena : try something for me . picture your wife . picture her being here with us right now . close your eyes and try that . do you see her ? daniel : okay , kind of weird . not really getting the vibe . marlena : okay , try this . if she were sitting here with us , what would she say to you ? daniel : i do n't know . i guess she would say , uh ... ... `` my baby , you have so much to give . allow yourself to love someone . `` marlena : that 's very good .

( not sure about this line of dialogue ) chloe : that 's just it . i ca n't .

[ scene_break ] ryan : yesterday i could n't even mention greenlee 's name in a positive tone , and now you 're throwing rice ? kendall : i ca n't stand the thought of the two of you saying vows , making plans , and sharing a wedding night -- not when it should be you and me in that four - poster bed . that 's why i 'm here . i know this is a huge risk , wearing this dress , making up with greenlee . if i took a second to think about it , i would probably die of embarrassment or go running in the woods , but -- but i had to try . i had to say it to you , and i had to tell you that in my heart , i 'm your true bride . ryan : ok , that 's how you feel . but why the rush ? kendall : well , i -- i ca n't come running to you , opening my heart to you after you are mr. and mrs . i had to -- ryan : no . i mean , why the mad dash to tie the knot ? why just not break up the wedding and then just take it from there ? kendall : because , ryan , right now , this moment -- this moment feels right . it feels perfect . we have a chance at everything we 've ever dreamed of -- trust , honesty , peace , passion . ryan : and how do you figure that ? we 've had about six seconds of peace since the day we met , forget about trust and honesty . kendall : you did n't mention passion . ok , all right . i admit it 's been crazy . i would never want to go back . ok , no more darkness , no more drama . only pure , positive , grabbing - you love . but if you do n't want that from me , if greenlee gives you that , then -- then i 'll -- i 'll let go . no more gestures , no more games . you can have a lifetime with greenlee , and -- and i 'll just have to deal . but seeing you here and feeling this close , i know one thing -- i will never stop wanting you , i will never stop loving you , and i will never forgive myself for ruining it all . [ scene_break ] greenlee : come on , simone . key , lock -- open now ! simone : kendall really locked you in there ? greenlee : no , this was a test for ryan . i have to grow my hair and haul him up through the window ! simone : oh , you would look good with long hair . greenlee : simone ! simone : you know what , do n't yell at me ! you know , this is a lot to take in ! greenlee : kendall shoved me in here , locked the door , and hauled ass down to ryan . she 's going to spin her lies and suck the life out of him . simone : wait , she 's with him now ? greenlee : yes . simone : i beg to differ , because the last time i saw kendall , we were downstairs finding out that you two were getting hitched , and the last thing she wanted to do was stay here . she wanted the hell out of here ! she told me to call the pilot . greenlee : to get rid of you while she took care of me and put on that bride- zilla dress . simone : oh , like ryan would n't notice . greenlee : simone , can i explain kendall 's brain to you after you open the damn door ? [ simone sighs ] simone : how am i supposed to know that you did n't lock yourself in there to try to make kendall look bad ? greenlee : the same way i know that once upon a time , you had more than ten brain cells . simone , you and i should be gagging from all the smoke that kendall was blowing . i should 've run when i saw her , but she said she was sorry , she wanted to get past all the bad stuff , she had a change of heart . ugh ! liar ! simone : you know , the whole reason kendall wanted to come up here was so that she could make peace with you and ryan . yeah , she was all weird and -- and happy before . you know , she had this , like , righteous in - love glow . did you ever think that maybe she meant what she said to you ? huh ? huh ? greenlee : then why did she lock me in a turret ? simone : well , there is that . greenlee : i have to get to kendall . let me out of here , simone ! simone : hold on a sec ! you and ryan are getting married , and kendall 's the bad guy here ?

[ scene_break ] kendall : dance with me . ryan : what ? kendall : this may be my last time to feel your arms around me or it may be just the beginning , but i 'm not afraid anymore . take my hand . if we dance off of this cliff , if we take this leap , then we 're unstoppable . no more fear . we wo n't hurt each other . i wo n't hurt you , you wo n't hurt me , not anymore . [ scene_break ] simone : the timing is too funky . ryan becomes a billionaire and then he and kendall part ways , and then you drag his fanny to the altar before he can return the ring ? greenlee : no , ryan proposed to me . he picked me . he wants me . and i 'm not like kendall . i 'm too smart to push the man away . simone : yeah , well , obviously , kendall wised up . greenlee : you really think so ? simone : yeah . greenlee : open the door and we can go ask her together . simone : greenlee , ryan and kendall have sparks , you know , and my gut says root for the fireworks . greenlee : ah !

[ sighs ] i was so happy to get to know dina . and i still want her to be a part of my life , but ... after dinner the other night , the way she just blurted out that painful information about my mom ... [ sighs ] you know , my whole life , my mom took such pride in telling me that i was john abbott 's granddaughter . jack : because that 's who you are , abby , through and through . you are an abbott . just like ashley . blood is only part of the equation . [ cellphone rings ] jack : you know what , i - i 'll let you get that in privacy . um , i 'll be up in my office , all right ? abby : okay . hi . zack : hey . i 'm so glad you finally picked up . i -- [ chuckles ] i missed hearing your voice . abby : um ... sorry , i - i 've been tied up all day . um , are you calling about designdate ? zack : i 'm calling about our date . the one i hope you 'll go on with me tonight ? abby : um ... zack , you know what , that is very sweet , but , um ... i do n't know if i 'd be the best company . i just got some bad news . zack : then my timing 's perfect . you can talk to me about it . abby : i doubt that you 'd find it very enjoyable listening to me vent about all my personal problems . zack : do n't you know by now ? anything you need , i 'm there for you . look , i know things have n't been all that stellar between us lately , but i care so much about you , abby . give me a chance to prove it . hot pockets satisfies hunger ... cane : i , uh , hope you 're gon na be comfortable here . juliet : oh , let me think . will i somehow manage to feel at home in this gorgeous mansion on this huge estate ? i ca n't make you any promises , but i will give it my best shot . cane : in all seriousness , all right , i want you to rest . you gave me a scare earlier . juliet : it was nothing . just a passing moment . but , yes , i promise i will be more careful . nothing means more to me than this baby . i ca n't tell you how touched i am that you asked me to move in with you . esther : he did what ? cane : all righty . um ... esther valentine , this is juliet helton . esther lives here , and she manages the place . juliet : it 's a pleasure to meet you . esther : uh , you , too . so ... this is juliet , and she 's ... living here now ? cane : yes , and i would like to think that you 'll make her feel at home . juliet : no , do n't worry . i will stay out of your way . i wo n't be any trouble . esther : there 's plenty of space here for everyone . cane : okay , thank you . juliet : think i 'll head to my room , lie down for a bit , maybe take a bath . uh , the rose guest room is made up . cane : okay . it 's , uh , upstairs , second floor , third door on the right , okay ? juliet : okay , got it . cane : here , let me help you . juliet : no , i think i can manage the steps . cane : are you sure ? you sure ? all right . well , uh , i 'll bring them up in a minute . juliet : thank you . cane : okay . i know it 's a surprise . i know . esther : why on earth would you do this , cane ? ! cane : because she needs our support , that 's why . esther : well , how do you think jill 's gon na feel when she hears this ? cane : i do n't think jill 's gon na mind . esther : [ scoffs ] oh , yeah . have you met the woman ? cane : yes , i have . and if she can make me the acting c.e.o . of chancellor , she would n't mind if i have a houseguest . esther : you 're living here and running chancellor ? cane : yeah . esther : wow . okay . uh , so ... what does your wife think about this arrangement ? cane : lily and i are over . and as much as i do n't want to admit it , my marriage has ended . and so now i need to take care of this baby , and lily 's just -- she 's gon na have to accept it . lily : hi . you wanted to see me ? victoria : hi . oh , yeah . come on in . lily : oh . uh , what happened to your face ? victoria : oh . [ sighs ] i was just a complete and total klutz . [ chuckles ] it 's a long and boring story . i - i -- not worth repeating at all . [ chuckles ] lily : okay . uh ... i - i can -- i 'm good with concealer . i can help you . victoria : oh , really ? okay . uh , thank you . lily : yeah , sure . victoria : that 's great . have at it . um ... so , um ... thank you for coming in . i want you to represent our company at the cosmetics convention in dallas . you 'd be leaving tomorrow night . lily : oh . um ... that -- that sounds incredible . victoria : oh , good . so , i 'll book your flights , then ? lily : um ... would you be disappointed if i say i do n't feel ready ? i just -- i feel like i 'm still easing into this job . victoria : oh , come on . i mean , you 'll do beautifully . i have every confidence in you . between working for dare and all of your personal appearances and your marketing experience with jabot , you should be just fine . lily : yeah , it just -- it kind of feels like short notice . victoria : i know . i 'm sorry about that . juliet was supposed to go , but after she left , after all the chaos , everything just sort of fell through the cracks . but we have you on board now . lily : uh ... okay . i see . victoria : look , it 's imperative that we have an executive presence there for the sake of our reputation in the industry . lily : uh [ sighs ] yeah . um ... right , because you and billy are working on expanding the men 's line , so ... victoria : yes , exactly . would you please do this for us ? you wo n't have to give any presentations or sit on any panels . i have two people from p.r . already down there . they 're gon na set up the booth in the convention center , so you wo n't have to deal with that . you 'll just have to network and schmooze and talk up the company . easy peasy . lily : okay . um ... yeah . i mean , in that case , i 'll do it . victoria : oh , great . great . thank you so much . lily : sure . victoria : i 'll have your travel arrangements ready by tomorrow morning , then . lily : okay . victoria : all right . great .

[ laughs ] i know it was an intimate family thing . i was n't expecting an invite . abby : it 's just as well that you were n't there . it was supposed to be this lovely occasion to celebrate this award that my mom received , innovator of the year . and , well , out of nowhere , it turned ugly . it turned into this massive showdown . zack : sounds rough . abby : it was awful . you know , all this ancient family history put out on display in front of everyone . things that i did n't even know . by the time i left , i was just ... i was so confused . zack : i 'm sorry you had to go through that . abby : and as bad as it was for me , it was even worse for my mom . this jerk completely attacked her , and someone that she really trusted betrayed her , even though they did n't mean to . but ... the damage was already done . and my mom was heartbroken , and so was i. i just felt so helpless , you know ? i do n't know what to do . i 'm sorry . [ chuckles ] i should n't have even gotten into this . i get so wound up . zack : you need to give yourself a break . abby : [ sighs ] zack : i mean , it just happened . when stuff in your life blows up , it takes time to sort through . especially given it 's about your mom . first time i met ashley , i could tell just how close the two of you were . abby : we really are , yeah . zack : and i know how tight you are with her side of the family . that has n't changed because of what 's happened , has it ? abby : no . no , no . they are amazing . i mean , we 're all in this together . zack : in that case -- and not to sound glib . i honestly believe this -- you and your mom are gon na be fine . abby : do you really think so ? zack : i know so . you 're both strong women with all these incredible people around you who love and support you . i ca n't imagine anything -- anything -- getting either one of you down for very long . abby : thank you . those were the exact words i needed to hear . lily : sorry to just stop by like this . esther : uh ... oh , it 's fine . cane : hey . hey , i was n't expecting you . esther : uh , i 'll be in the kitchen if anyone needs me . lily : uh , i tried calling . this wo n't take long . cane : okay . lily : yeah . uh , i guess you did n't get my message ? cane : uh , no . uh , my battery died , and , uh , i 'm charging it . so , um , what 's up ? lily : um , i had an emergency that i needed your help with . cane : sure . what 's the emergency ? lily : i 'm going out of town to dallas on a business trip tomorrow night , and i thought maybe you could stay at the house with the twins while i 'm gone . cane : you want me to move back in , huh ? um ... yeah . i mean , i would love to spend more time with the kids , but , um ... lily : but what ? i thought you would jump at the chance . what 's stopping you ? billy : tell me again why we 're leaving without just a little sip of brandy ? phyllis : because i want you to myself . billy : well , that 's a damn fine reason . phyllis : [ chuckles ] you know , we 've been living together for the last few months , and i feel like we are not on the same page . like our minds are just a million miles apart . and i think in some ways we have failed to appreciate what we have right in front of us . billy : i could n't agree more . phyllis : yeah . victoria : hi . um , listen . billy : hey . victoria : i 'm sorry to interrupt your evening , but something 's come up . phyllis : always . it always does . billy : what is it ? victoria : i just heard from hilary . she had a guest cancel on her , and she wants me on her show tomorrow . billy : and you said yes with -- with no prep time ? victoria : i mean , of course i did . in a heartbeat . phyllis : why do n't you two talk , and i 'll be in the ladies room . jack : what is it ? phyllis : plans have changed . victoria 's going on `` the hilary hour `` tomorrow . jack : to promote the new men 's line ? phyllis : yes . we do n't need to just move fast . we need to move now . we need to get the new men 's products out of the warehouse and delivered to fenmore 's immediately . jack : then take care of it . phyllis : are you sure about this ? jack : yes , i 'm sure . i told you , you 're in charge of this . take care of it . phyllis : consider it done . billy : look , i know you want to move on this soon , but we got to put the brakes on , okay ? hilary will understand . we 're just not ready to launch . victoria : we 're ready enough . billy : vick , you 're gon na go on there , and you 're gon na talk about the extended line , which includes this new face mask . people are gon na get excited about it , and we 're not gon na have enough product for them to buy . victoria : listen , i just want to keep up the momentum . i want to stay ahead of the pack . and what better way than to surprise our competitors ? especially jabot ? billy : okay , but we got a schedule for this -- victoria : i know it 's gon na make things crazier than they already are . but we can handle this , billy . billy : okay , fine . we 'll figure it out . victoria : okay . thank you . billy : what is that ? victoria : what ? billy : what 's on your face right here ? victoria : oh , you can see it ? oh , damn it . i put on a ton of concealer . billy : victoria , what happened ? victoria : uh , nothing . it 's not a big deal . it was a fender bender . billy : what ? victoria : yes , earlier tonight . it 's not a big deal . billy : are you okay ? victoria : it was a minor thing . i 'm okay . the only thing i 'm concerned about is that it 's gone before i appear on hilary 's show . billy : it 's not that bad , but ... victoria : yeah , but the camera sees every flaw , so ... oh , well . it 's fine . really . phyllis : you all finished here ? ready to take this guy home . victoria : yep . all done . i 'll see you bright and early tomorrow . we have a big day . billy : okay . scott : `` county connect `` ? paul : right . that is the name of the llc they used to rent the house the prostitutes were living in . that is , until the boss decided to suddenly move them to wherever they are now . sharon : well , you always said these people would be hiding behind a dummy business . now we have a name to go on . paul : [ groans , exhales ] when you say `` we , `` sharon , i certainly hope you mean the police department ? and it is just a name . i would n't get too excited . i would expect to see a string of shell companies behind this one . and remember , it would be for the express purpose to bury the names of the people running it . sharon : how long will it take to cut through all of that and get to the real owner ? paul : it 's probably gon na take a while . but i have the forensic accountant team working on it now . scott : well , thanks for sharing that . but if it 's all the same , i 'm gon na pursue it myself for my article . paul : yeah , i figured you might . i just want to ask one thing . scott : that i keep it as discreet as possible , and i let you know if i hear of anything . i know how this works . paul : and that you do n't take any unnecessary risks and do anything dangerous . because i would have to answer to lauren . sharon : i 'll keep him in line , too . scott : she always does . sharon : well , thanks for coming by , paul . and thanks for delivering this information personally . paul : okay . i 'm serious , though . please . sharon : well , it 's a start . scott : now for the fun part . unraveling miles and miles of muddle paperwork to get to the source . sharon : you know , you 're a great journalist . scott : and researcher . sharon : and researcher . but do you really think that you can do this faster and more thoroughly than the police can ? scott : the cops have plenty of resources at their disposal . but , uh ... i have something they do n't have . zack : feels so good seeing you smile again . abby : well , it 's all on account of you being a phenomenal listener and an all- around sweetheart . zack : tell you what . i 'm starved . i bet you are , too . let me get something to go with the wine . abby : yeah , now that you mention it , i could use something to eat . zack : i 'll be right back . abby : okay . zack : what are you doing here , natalia ? you 're not supposed to be working in genoa city . i specifically told you that when we moved you to the new house . natalia : i know , but leon is boss now . zack : excuse me ? natalia : he tells me -- he tells me who to see and wh - where to work . i tell him that you will be very angry , but he -- zack : i ca n't believe this . natalia : my arm , please . let go . zack : convince your date that you ca n't wait to get him back to his room . then get the hell out of here . move ! [ sighs ] leon , i need to talk to you . give me a call , asap . [ exhales deeply ] cane : come here . have a seat . lily : i do n't want to have a seat . i want to know why you 're hesitating . since you moved out , you 've wanted to spend more time with the kids . cane : yeah , that 's true . i do . lily : okay , well , here 's your opportunity . you get to spend several days with them . you can wake up and have breakfast , and dinner , and shoot hoops , have a normal routine -- cane : sounds fantastic . it really does . it 's just the timing . it 's just not good right now . you 're kind of just dropping this on me , and i -- lily : well , if it has to do with your job at chancellor , the commute 's the same . cane : it 's not that . juliet : oh , hands down , that is the most comfortable bed i have ever been in . and that rain head in the shower ? oh , my god ! it was pure heaven . it will not take me long to get used to living here . lily : you 're living together ? cane : i hope now you understand why i asked juliet to stay here . because i ca n't have her stay at the club on her own while she 's having problems with the pregnancy . and at least here , i can take care of her , and esther can help . lily : you do n't have to explain anything to me . i get why you made your choice , and i really hope that -- that everything is okay . and , plus , we 're getting divorced , so you can live your life how you want . cane : all right , just -- juliet : just so you know , this is all about the baby . there is nothing going on between cane and me . lily : so , you do n't want to stay at the house with the twins because you would rather be here instead ? cane : well , hang on a second . no , i did n't say that . i did n't say that to you . and i did n't get a chance to answer earlier because i was trying to tell you about juliet . look , i do n't have a problem staying at the house with the kids while you go to dallas . 'cause i already said to you that esther can take care of her while i 'm gone . she 'll be fine . juliet : yeah , of course i will . and you should be with charlie and mattie . cane : and if she needs me , she can call me . right ? juliet : yeah , i wo n't forget . cane : okay . juliet : well , excuse me . i 'm gon na go finish unpacking . cane : i know that this is a shock for you . lily : cane , just ... stop . abby : oh , no ! you got to be quick . zack : [ laughs ] i could watch you do that all day . abby : what , chew ? [ laughs ] zack : it 's pretty adorable . just like everything else you do . abby : he finally notices . zack : oh , please . i noticed a long time ago . so , how about it ? how you feeling now that you got this food in you ? abby : i definitely feel much better than when i first walked in . zack : i 'm glad . abby : [ laughs ] zack : what 's going on in that beautiful head of yours ? abby : i was just thinking , um ... you 're full of surprises . zack : uh - oh . what 'd i do this time ? abby : how you insisted on seeing me tonight , even though i told you i was in a lousy mood . and how attentive you are , and such a good listener . i feel like i really saw a different side to you . one that i really liked . and i 've just -- i 've never felt closer to you before . zack : i feel the same . abby : you know , i 've been wondering where things stood between us . i mean , where you stood . if this relationship was important to you . and , well , i was hoping -- i need to know -- [ cellphone rings ] what , you 're -- zack : abby , i 'm sorry ... abby : you 're not actually gon na take that now ? zack : i know . again , i 'm sorry . abby : i was about to tell -- zack : i 'll be right back . jack : i highly doubt they have a doctor with them . what would be graham 's incentive for keeping my mother alive ? all he cares about is the millions he 's going to inherit from her . he 's not going to let anything or anyone come between him and that money . paul : jack , i 'm truly sorry that you and your family have to go through this . jack : paul , we have to find her . paul : and i sincerely hope you do . and soon . graham has dina 's power of attorney . he was well within his rights to have her released from memorial . and it was not illegal for them to leave town together . jack : i know all that . but there is something you can do for me -- if you 're willing . [ cellphone chimes ] sorry . just take a moment . just a work thing . billy : this late ? phyllis : well , let 's not worry about that . let 's focus on the things that need to get done . okay ? you know what we need ? billy : i do n't need anything but you . phyllis : we need champagne . i 'm gon na get the glasses . billy : i 'll get the music . phyllis : awesome . [ celllphone chimes ] billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : where 's that music you said you 'd put on ? what are you doing with my phone ? hot pockets satisfies hunger ... sharon : so , you working for newman might be what finally brings down these vicious criminals . scott : all i need is victor 's approval , and his resources . sharon : you think you 'll get it ? scott : i have to . `` no `` is n't an option . i need to reach out to his backroom legal team -- his sharks who can put their legally- and ethically - gray methods to good use for once . maybe with their help , i can uncover the real mastermind behind the fake corporation . zack : i do n't care if it was a platinum - level request specifically for natalia . and i do n't care how much money was in it . there are people in this town who are looking for any connection to alice and crystal . they can not -- i repeat , can not -- see natalia . understood ? yeah , you 're damn right it wo n't happen again . abby ! hey , i 'm so sorry . i should never had put you on hold like that . abby : then why did you ? zack : because i ca n't help myself . there are times where i know i should stop working , but i can't . i need to stop that . abby : [ scoffs ] it 's always the same excuse with you . zack : abby -- abby : look , i take work just as seriously as you do , but that does n't mean i - i peel off in the middle of a personal conversation to take a business call . it 's rude . i was embarrassed , zack . you left me sitting there . i would n't treat you that way . i would n't treat anyone that way . i - it was like i was so unimportant , like i would be happy to just sit there and wait for you . well , i 'm not , okay ? you ca n't do that to people . zack : everything you just said -- you 're absolutely right . there 's a reason for it . just let me explain . you 've been an executive for a long time . this is my first big break . i 've been struggling for so many years . now that i 've had a little bit of success , i do n't want to risk it . abby : look , i get that . but that does n't excuse what you just did . you need to figure out what your priorities are . zack : i do n't want to lose you , abby . i know that you 've been burned in the past , and that you need someone you can rely on . i swear , you can count on me . abby : i really want to believe you . zack : you can . i need you to . because you are , by far , the most incredible woman i 've ever met . come back to the table . please ? so i can keep telling you how much you mean to me . cane : hey , hey , do n't go . all right ? stay here so we can talk this out . come on . lily : talk about what ? juliet ? no , thank you . i will pass . cane : all right , listen , i - i -- [ sighs ] lily : cane , listen . you can do whatever you want , okay ? you can . but at some point , you have to tell the kids , 'cause i 'm not gon na do it for you . cane : i do n't expect you to do it for me , okay ? lily : good . cane : when the time is right , i 'll tell them . and i think it 's great . i will be able to spend more time and reconnect , okay ? lily : i hope so . cane : all right . lily : for their sake . because they need their father . cane : i know they need their father . and i 'll always be their father , irrespective of the fact that you 're the one who asked me for the divorce . lily : [ scoffs ] speaking of divorce , michael has n't received your copy of the signed papers . cane : yeah , no , i , um ... i 've been too busy with my new job to -- to sign them . lily : well , you seem to be moving on in other ways , so i do n't know what 's holding you back . jack : and after all that , we still do n't have a flight plan . without it , the trail goes cold . paul : well , a private jet does complicate things , jack . jack : well , i am asking you to un - complicate things . you 're the chief of police . your wife is the d.a . you have connections at the highest level . surely you can get this information . paul : jack -- jack : paul , i saw how devoted you were to mary , god rest her soul . you would have done anything for your mother . paul : you 're right . i would 've . jack : so ? paul : all right . i will do whatever i can to find your mother . but there are no guarantees . jack : thank you . i will not be able to rest until i know she is away from that guy and back home where she belongs . billy : jabot 's launching a new men 's line ?

[ laughs ] i know it was an intimate family thing . i was n't expecting an invite . abby : it 's just as well that you were n't there . it was supposed to be this lovely occasion to celebrate this award that my mom received , innovator of the year . and , well , out of nowhere , it turned ugly . it turned into this massive showdown . zack : sounds rough . abby : it was awful . you know , all this ancient family history put out on display in front of everyone . things that i did n't even know . by the time i left , i was just ... i was so confused . zack : i 'm sorry you had to go through that . abby : and as bad as it was for me , it was even worse for my mom . this jerk completely attacked her , and someone that she really trusted betrayed her , even though they did n't mean to . but ... the damage was already done . and my mom was heartbroken , and so was i. i just felt so helpless , you know ? i do n't know what to do . i 'm sorry . [ chuckles ] i should n't have even gotten into this . i get so wound up . zack : you need to give yourself a break . abby : [ sighs ] zack : i mean , it just happened . when stuff in your life blows up , it takes time to sort through . especially given it 's about your mom . first time i met ashley , i could tell just how close the two of you were . abby : we really are , yeah . zack : and i know how tight you are with her side of the family . that has n't changed because of what 's happened , has it ? abby : no . no , no . they are amazing . i mean , we 're all in this together . zack : in that case -- and not to sound glib . i honestly believe this -- you and your mom are gon na be fine . abby : do you really think so ? zack : i know so . you 're both strong women with all these incredible people around you who love and support you . i ca n't imagine anything -- anything -- getting either one of you down for very long . abby : thank you . those were the exact words i needed to hear . lily : sorry to just stop by like this . esther : uh ... oh , it 's fine . cane : hey . hey , i was n't expecting you . esther : uh , i 'll be in the kitchen if anyone needs me . lily : uh , i tried calling . this wo n't take long . cane : okay . lily : yeah . uh , i guess you did n't get my message ? cane : uh , no . uh , my battery died , and , uh , i 'm charging it . so , um , what 's up ? lily : um , i had an emergency that i needed your help with . cane : sure . what 's the emergency ? lily : i 'm going out of town to dallas on a business trip tomorrow night , and i thought maybe you could stay at the house with the twins while i 'm gone . cane : you want me to move back in , huh ? um ... yeah . i mean , i would love to spend more time with the kids , but , um ... lily : but what ? i thought you would jump at the chance . what 's stopping you ? billy : tell me again why we 're leaving without just a little sip of brandy ? phyllis : because i want you to myself . billy : well , that 's a damn fine reason . phyllis : [ chuckles ] you know , we 've been living together for the last few months , and i feel like we are not on the same page . like our minds are just a million miles apart . and i think in some ways we have failed to appreciate what we have right in front of us . billy : i could n't agree more . phyllis : yeah . victoria : hi . um , listen . billy : hey . victoria : i 'm sorry to interrupt your evening , but something 's come up . phyllis : always . it always does . billy : what is it ? victoria : i just heard from hilary . she had a guest cancel on her , and she wants me on her show tomorrow . billy : and you said yes with -- with no prep time ? victoria : i mean , of course i did . in a heartbeat . phyllis : why do n't you two talk , and i 'll be in the ladies room . jack : what is it ? phyllis : plans have changed . victoria 's going on `` the hilary hour `` tomorrow . jack : to promote the new men 's line ? phyllis : yes . we do n't need to just move fast . we need to move now . we need to get the new men 's products out of the warehouse and delivered to fenmore 's immediately . jack : then take care of it . phyllis : are you sure about this ? jack : yes , i 'm sure . i told you , you 're in charge of this . take care of it . phyllis : consider it done . billy : look , i know you want to move on this soon , but we got to put the brakes on , okay ? hilary will understand . we 're just not ready to launch . victoria : we 're ready enough . billy : vick , you 're gon na go on there , and you 're gon na talk about the extended line , which includes this new face mask . people are gon na get excited about it , and we 're not gon na have enough product for them to buy . victoria : listen , i just want to keep up the momentum . i want to stay ahead of the pack . and what better way than to surprise our competitors ? especially jabot ? billy : okay , but we got a schedule for this -- victoria : i know it 's gon na make things crazier than they already are . but we can handle this , billy . billy : okay , fine . we 'll figure it out . victoria : okay . thank you . billy : what is that ? victoria : what ? billy : what 's on your face right here ? victoria : oh , you can see it ? oh , damn it . i put on a ton of concealer . billy : victoria , what happened ? victoria : uh , nothing . it 's not a big deal . it was a fender bender . billy : what ? victoria : yes , earlier tonight . it 's not a big deal . billy : are you okay ? victoria : it was a minor thing . i 'm okay . the only thing i 'm concerned about is that it 's gone before i appear on hilary 's show . billy : it 's not that bad , but ... victoria : yeah , but the camera sees every flaw , so ... oh , well . it 's fine . really . phyllis : you all finished here ? ready to take this guy home . victoria : yep . all done . i 'll see you bright and early tomorrow . we have a big day . billy : okay . scott : `` county connect `` ? paul : right . that is the name of the llc they used to rent the house the prostitutes were living in . that is , until the boss decided to suddenly move them to wherever they are now . sharon : well , you always said these people would be hiding behind a dummy business . now we have a name to go on . paul : [ groans , exhales ] when you say `` we , `` sharon , i certainly hope you mean the police department ? and it is just a name . i would n't get too excited . i would expect to see a string of shell companies behind this one . and remember , it would be for the express purpose to bury the names of the people running it . sharon : how long will it take to cut through all of that and get to the real owner ? paul : it 's probably gon na take a while . but i have the forensic accountant team working on it now . scott : well , thanks for sharing that . but if it 's all the same , i 'm gon na pursue it myself for my article . paul : yeah , i figured you might . i just want to ask one thing . scott : that i keep it as discreet as possible , and i let you know if i hear of anything . i know how this works . paul : and that you do n't take any unnecessary risks and do anything dangerous . because i would have to answer to lauren . sharon : i 'll keep him in line , too . scott : she always does . sharon : well , thanks for coming by , paul . and thanks for delivering this information personally . paul : okay . i 'm serious , though . please . sharon : well , it 's a start . scott : now for the fun part . unraveling miles and miles of muddle paperwork to get to the source . sharon : you know , you 're a great journalist . scott : and researcher . sharon : and researcher . but do you really think that you can do this faster and more thoroughly than the police can ? scott : the cops have plenty of resources at their disposal . but , uh ... i have something they do n't have . zack : feels so good seeing you smile again . abby : well , it 's all on account of you being a phenomenal listener and an all- around sweetheart . zack : tell you what . i 'm starved . i bet you are , too . let me get something to go with the wine . abby : yeah , now that you mention it , i could use something to eat . zack : i 'll be right back . abby : okay . zack : what are you doing here , natalia ? you 're not supposed to be working in genoa city . i specifically told you that when we moved you to the new house . natalia : i know , but leon is boss now . zack : excuse me ? natalia : he tells me -- he tells me who to see and wh - where to work . i tell him that you will be very angry , but he -- zack : i ca n't believe this . natalia : my arm , please . let go . zack : convince your date that you ca n't wait to get him back to his room . then get the hell out of here . move ! [ sighs ] leon , i need to talk to you . give me a call , asap . [ exhales deeply ] cane : come here . have a seat . lily : i do n't want to have a seat . i want to know why you 're hesitating . since you moved out , you 've wanted to spend more time with the kids . cane : yeah , that 's true . i do . lily : okay , well , here 's your opportunity . you get to spend several days with them . you can wake up and have breakfast , and dinner , and shoot hoops , have a normal routine -- cane : sounds fantastic . it really does . it 's just the timing . it 's just not good right now . you 're kind of just dropping this on me , and i -- lily : well , if it has to do with your job at chancellor , the commute 's the same . cane : it 's not that . juliet : oh , hands down , that is the most comfortable bed i have ever been in . and that rain head in the shower ? oh , my god ! it was pure heaven . it will not take me long to get used to living here . lily : you 're living together ? cane : i hope now you understand why i asked juliet to stay here . because i ca n't have her stay at the club on her own while she 's having problems with the pregnancy . and at least here , i can take care of her , and esther can help . lily : you do n't have to explain anything to me . i get why you made your choice , and i really hope that -- that everything is okay . and , plus , we 're getting divorced , so you can live your life how you want . cane : all right , just -- juliet : just so you know , this is all about the baby . there is nothing going on between cane and me . lily : so , you do n't want to stay at the house with the twins because you would rather be here instead ? cane : well , hang on a second . no , i did n't say that . i did n't say that to you . and i did n't get a chance to answer earlier because i was trying to tell you about juliet . look , i do n't have a problem staying at the house with the kids while you go to dallas . 'cause i already said to you that esther can take care of her while i 'm gone . she 'll be fine . juliet : yeah , of course i will . and you should be with charlie and mattie . cane : and if she needs me , she can call me . right ? juliet : yeah , i wo n't forget . cane : okay . juliet : well , excuse me . i 'm gon na go finish unpacking . cane : i know that this is a shock for you . lily : cane , just ... stop . abby : oh , no ! you got to be quick . zack : [ laughs ] i could watch you do that all day . abby : what , chew ? [ laughs ] zack : it 's pretty adorable . just like everything else you do . abby : he finally notices . zack : oh , please . i noticed a long time ago . so , how about it ? how you feeling now that you got this food in you ? abby : i definitely feel much better than when i first walked in . zack : i 'm glad . abby : [ laughs ] zack : what 's going on in that beautiful head of yours ? abby : i was just thinking , um ... you 're full of surprises . zack : uh - oh . what 'd i do this time ? abby : how you insisted on seeing me tonight , even though i told you i was in a lousy mood . and how attentive you are , and such a good listener . i feel like i really saw a different side to you . one that i really liked . and i 've just -- i 've never felt closer to you before . zack : i feel the same . abby : you know , i 've been wondering where things stood between us . i mean , where you stood . if this relationship was important to you . and , well , i was hoping -- i need to know -- [ cellphone rings ] what , you 're -- zack : abby , i 'm sorry ... abby : you 're not actually gon na take that now ? zack : i know . again , i 'm sorry . abby : i was about to tell -- zack : i 'll be right back . jack : i highly doubt they have a doctor with them . what would be graham 's incentive for keeping my mother alive ? all he cares about is the millions he 's going to inherit from her . he 's not going to let anything or anyone come between him and that money . paul : jack , i 'm truly sorry that you and your family have to go through this . jack : paul , we have to find her . paul : and i sincerely hope you do . and soon . graham has dina 's power of attorney . he was well within his rights to have her released from memorial . and it was not illegal for them to leave town together . jack : i know all that . but there is something you can do for me -- if you 're willing . [ cellphone chimes ] sorry . just take a moment . just a work thing . billy : this late ? phyllis : well , let 's not worry about that . let 's focus on the things that need to get done . okay ? you know what we need ? billy : i do n't need anything but you . phyllis : we need champagne . i 'm gon na get the glasses . billy : i 'll get the music . phyllis : awesome . [ celllphone chimes ] billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : where 's that music you said you 'd put on ? what are you doing with my phone ? hot pockets satisfies hunger ... sharon : so , you working for newman might be what finally brings down these vicious criminals . scott : all i need is victor 's approval , and his resources . sharon : you think you 'll get it ?

[ luke growls ] skye : ok , i 've had enough . i 'm meeting lorenzo and if i were n't , i 'd pretend that i was . oh , escape while you can . oh . oh . you found out about georgie 's prom date . dillon yeah -- the harday . skye : i 'm sorry . [ tracy gasps ] tracy : my angel . you have come to your senses and returned to the nest . i 'm so glad because i really need someone on my side . dillon : oh , selfless as always . skye : hang in there . tracy : so , will you help me keep an eye on luke and help me figure out what 's he up to ? carly : you are so adorable -- you and jane and your one - track minds . you know , she hears wedding bells , too . jax : well , what were you guys talking about ? carly : we 're planning your son 's christening , but thanks for obsessing over me . jax : christening ? carly : mm - hmm . jax : why ? carly : because you have secured little john 's place in your life in every other way possible . now , you need to stand up before god and all of your friends and promise to nurture and protect that little boy as your -- am i wrong here or do you want to set me straight ? jax : no , no , no . my son needs to be christened . carly : like i said . jax : do n't i need to pick godparen before the big event ? carly : yeah , two . x : well , i wanted mike to be john 's godfather because that 's the only blood connection to courtney that john will have , and i think it would make courtney happy . carly : yeah . and since mike is john 's grandfather , he 'll be thrilled . jax : right . then let 's go pick a godmother . carly : hmm . jax : it 's going to be tough . i mean , skye would be great , do n't you think ? i mean , you know , her kid and john -- they could be great friends . carly : yeah , she 's great . jax : right . right . and then there 's alexis , of course -- lexis and robin , who i 'm both devoted to . it 's going to be tough . oh . i 'm just going to have to make a choice . yep , i 'm just going to have to make a decision . it 's done . carly : you ca n't seriously think about picking robin or alexis -- jax : carly -- carly : to be that little -- jax : would you be the godmother to my son ? carly : that was n't funny . jax : sorry . robin : having a meltdown at jax 's expense because of carly would be a huge mistake . maxie : but at least the truth would be out . robin : but , maxie , there is so much about this situation that we do n't know . maxie : you 're right . maybe carly does n't even know that nikolas is john 's father . we ca n't just automatically jump to the worst - case scenario . robin : come on , please . it 's carly . maxie : right she knows . robin : yes , and she 's probably the one that talked him into it to begin with . maxie : oh , my god . do you think courtney knew that nikolas was john 's father ? robin : i do n't know . you know what ? no , she could n't have known . she loved nikolas too much to keep that secret from him . maxie : do you believe in signs ? nikolas : hello . robin : hi . nikolas : hi . robin : you know , are you free for lunch later ? i do n't think we finished our conversation from the other night . nikolas : i would 've thought you had enough of me going on about courtney and her son . robin : no , not at all . that i important stuff you 're dealing with . nikolas : care to join us ? maxie : no , thanks . have plans . nikolas : ok . metro court ? robin : yes -- uh , 1 : 00 ? nikolas : yeah . robin : ok . nikolas : ok . maxie : you 're going to tell him , are n't you ? robin : i think courtney would want nikolas to know . maxie : ugh . i know , i know . i forgot to check in with my keeper . robin : hi . mac : nice to see you , maxie -- hi . college has been out for three days . we aeed you 'd move home for the summer . maxie : they 're letting us stay in the dorms . mac : that 's not what i hear . maxie : did he give you this much grief when you lived at home ? robin : yes , i believe so , but in retrospect , i am very grateful . georgie : ooh . mac : georgie ? georgie : is it ok if i move back home ? mac : i have one thing to say . georgie : if this sounds anything like `` i told you so , `` i 'm going back upstairs . mac : no . more like you 'll always have a home with your family . but since both you girls are going to be living at home now , i think we should revisit some ground rules . maxie : in case you 've forgotten , i 'm in college . georgie : i 'm married . robin : oh , come on , you guys -- be nice to him . just be grateful that you have a father around when you need him . robert : words to live by . you 'll never go wrong by respecting your dad . oh , is n't this quaint -- a family reunion . jason : please do n't call back . sam : we -- we have to talk . i need to see you and it -- it 'll only be a couple of minutes . if you can just give me , like , five minutes -- stan : oh . this can wait . jason : no , no . it needs to happen fast . bernie : i 'll make the arrangements . jason : thank you , bernie . just call me when everything 's ready . bernie : yeah . alexis : jason ? sam : hung up on me . alexis : sam , what are you going to do ? sam : i do n't know . he told me not to call him again . alexis : oh , i 'm so sorry . i ca n't imagine how much this hurts you . sam : no , you can't . if i could just talk to him , you know ? i just -- i need a couple of minutes to talk to him . i know that he would be able to hear me . i do n't even know who i am without jason . alexis : then that 's what we 're going to figure out . and i promise to keep it rant - free . sam : you keeping anything about jason rant - free ? i 'd like to see that . alexis : it 's because i understand why you can love him . jason is an easy man to love . it 's just living in his world is another story . you said something to me , that you did n't know who you were without jason . i want to know who you were before jason . what did you want , sam ? did you have any dreams at all ? sam : yeah . i wanted to make a big score and retire . because i always thought that if i had enough money , that i would feel safe . but it 's not about the money and i -- i feel safe with jason . jason makes me happy . alexis : you , you , you . i want to know about you . i want to know about you , what you want . you said you wanted your g.e.d . , that you wanted to go to college , that you even wanted to go to law school . sam : jason said i was just doing that because of you . alexis : well , so what ? sam : no , i mean , i think -- i think i would 've liked it . i think i would 've been really good at it . you know , i spent so much of my time on the wrong side of the law . it would 've been -- it would 've been nice to be on the right side of the law . alexis : you are focused and you are determined and you can do whatever you want . det . rodriguez : m sorry to bother you , ms . davis . ballistics got back to us on the durant murder . alexis : it 's ok . it 's ok , you can talk . det . rodriguez : the strike marks matched the bullet that shot ms . mccall . as the d.a . , i thought you 'd want to know . alexis : thank you . sam : durant is dead and you 're the new d.a . ? robin : dad , that 's a really nice gesture . but i happen to be a grown woman with , believe it or not , a life of my own . robert : exactly how long do you intend to remain angry with me ? i mean , just so that i can , you know , make a note on my calendar . robin : well , you know , that 's the thing -- i 'm not angry with you anymore . robert : oh . robin : i have come to realize some basics . number one , you can not change who you are no more than i can . so now i just find you mildly amusing . so now that i 'm all grown up , i do n't really need a father , but thanks for volunteering . maxie : wait , robin , were n't you just telling georgie and me that we should appreciate the father that we have ? robin : actually , i said appreciate that you have a father around when you need him , and we can all be grateful to uncle mac for that . mac : maybe we should cut robert a little slack . georgie : i 'm sorry i ruined your plans by moving home , uncle robert . robin : better luck next time . but you know what ? i 'm sure some agency will call you any minute and tell you that they desperately need you to go on a mission . robert : fortunately , i have plan b. i have this standing invitation at a place that , unlike yourself , they just ca n't get enough of me . luke : mmm . island life has its advantages , but , alice , i 'll tell you , nothing compares to the high - class joint you run . you make married life tolerable . tracy : i heard that . luke : oh , wife , come , sit your spanky buns down here . papa 's made this spot right here nice and warm for you . lulu : i thought you would ditch the stepmonster over the pacific . tracy : oh , you are a chip off the old block . do you want me to tell her or should you ? luke : well , i 'd rather not relive it , wife . tracy : i understand . holly , darling daddy 's dream girl , ditched him and ran off with the jewels -- or so she thought -- proving what i knew all along -- she 's just not that into you . lulu : sorry , dad . luke : ah , it 's ok , daughter . it 's true the english crumpet did do me wrong , but c'est la vie . i always have the bosom of my extended family to return home to . hey , pop , what do you say ? would you extend me a small loan ? edward : not on your best day . tracy : oh , thank you , daddy . you 're absolutely right , luke deserves nothing . oh , wait a minute . from now on , i am the center of your universe , not mr . luke , and should you defy me , i 'll put him hind bars . lulu : for what ? tracy : do you remember the jewels he was so desperate to get his hands on ? well , it turns out he was highly motivated . yosee , he 's been skimming off my accounts . in fact , he 's racked up so much debt that he could be in prison for decades . luke : but my wife has seen fit to reach into her heart and generously decided to take it out on my hide instead . edward : i say toss him behind bars . tracy : maybe , but for now i like him right where i 've got him -- firmly under my thumb . luke : ouch . lorenzo : i 'm returning this in person so there will be no mistake . with all due respect , juan , you 're wasting your money and my time . i have no interest in going into business with you . diego : i would rethink that , dad . jason : i have a lot of respect for you , ms . johnson . i am so grateful to you for the way you helped with sam 's recovery , ateful for the way you helped when manny ruiz grabbed elizabeth . epiphany : you 're going to turn me down . you 're not going to fire my son . jason : if stan wanted to quit , i would respect that , but i ca n't fire him . he 's done nothing wrong . epiphany : except spit in the face of his talent and his future . jason : i promise you i will do my best to see that nothing bad happens to your son . epiphany : i suppose that 's the best i can hope for . jason : i would n't blame you if you refused this , ok , but i have to ask . will you keep me updated on sam 's progress , at least for the next couple of days ? epiphany : what you did for sam , it obviously cost you a lot . i guess you 're one of those men that can handle a broken heart . you do n't even realize that not everyone is like you . alexis : thank you . a lot happened while you were unconscious . john durant was killed . he was caught in between carly and two snipers . and from what we just heard , it turns out that those were the same snipers who shot at jason when you got in the way . sam : so you get the big job ? alexis : reluctantly , mayor floyd offered me the job and i took it . but i 've spent most of my time here and this is where my focus has been , so i would n't be surprised at all if he took the job away as quickly as he offered it . sam : well , that would be good because , i do n't know , i do n't really like the idea of you being the d.a . of port charles . alexis : i get that . i hope you understand , too , that it 's a bss ring for anyone involved in the law . sam : right , and i hope you understand that you are going to make it your mission to prosecute the man i love , and i just -- i have a feeling that might put a damper on the whole mother - daughter bonding . [ knock on door ] ric : excuse me ? alexis : hi . ric : bad time ? sam : not at all . i should be resting , anyway . robin : hey . jax : hey . robin : i was supposed to meet nikolas for lunch , but i do n't see him . have you seen him ? jax : well , no , but i 'm sure he 'll be here . robin : what 's this all about ? jax : planning john 's christening , so i 'm just -- i 'm trying to learn this . robin : that 's great . jax : you know , i 've been sitting here thinking about how close i came to losing him and , you know , how amazing it is that he lived . this is my way to give thanks for my son and ask for god 's help and guidance in his future . robin : could all use a little of that . jax : you know , i 'm a little intimidated to be that boy 's father . john and i are getting closer every day . i 'm incredibly humbled at the prospect of shaping his life . alexis : i 've been waiting for you . oy ! oh , my goodness . hello there . hello . thank you for bringing them so quickly . will you do me a favor and go have lunch with molly , and i need to talk to kristina alone for a little bit ? viola : oh , absolutely . mm - hmm . alexis : and then i 'll call you when we 're finished . viola : ok . alexis : thanks . do you mind having a talk with mom ? ok ? kristina : do n't mind at all . alexis : ok . i 'm going to have to tell you some things that i really do n't think you 're going to be able to understand all of it , and i just want you to know it 's ok , you do n't have to . you just listen because mom always wants to tell you the truth . ok ? do you remember your friend lori ? kristina : yeah . alexis : ok ? you know she 's adopted and you know what that means ? ok . now , the same thing happened to mommy . when mommy was 16 years old , mommy had a baby , and mommy was n't old enough to take care of the baby , so she gave it to a family that could . well , it turns out now that that baby is not a baby anymore . the baby is a big , grown , beautiful woman who 's your sister . do you know who that is ? it 's sam . kristina : so sam 's my big sister ? alexis : is that ok with you ? kristina : are you going to give me and molly away like you di -- alexis : never . never , never . mommy waed till a long time so i could be a good mother and i would know how to take care of you , so you came right at the perfect time . and we will always be together , all of us , ok -- you , molly , me , and sam . sam : not long ago , you thought i was a deluded stalker . you were going to get a restraining order put on me . remember ? ric : i did n't know the circumstances . sam : wow . you must 've been thrilled when you found out i was the dead daughter . ric : no , i was happy for my wife . see , sam , i was there when alexis opened up the file and read that her little girl had been killed . and i held her in my arms and she cried , and even though she did n't believe me , i tried to convince her that it was n't her fault . now , as far as things being what they are , the only thing i was thrilled about was that alexis had received a miracle , and those are kind of rare tse days . now it 's not just up to alexis or fate , it 's up to you . you have a say in this . so i 'm asking you , as your stepfather , do n't blow it . make your own relationship with your mother , ok , apart from jason or anyone else . alexis : i brought a couple of people i thought might make you feel better . kristina : sam , you 're my big sister . sam : well , your mom is n't very subtle , now , is she ? should i say `` our mom `` ? alexis : ah . lorenzo : i have no quarrel with you , morgan . whatever business dealings you have with escobar , they have nothing to do with me . i 'm merely here to protect my family . jason : if you really want out of this , you and your son should leave now . any future discussion with escobar will only be interpreted one way . diego : look , you do n't give orders to lorenzo alcazar . lorenzo : try to remember what it was like to be young and hotheaded . gentlemen . juan : you and i need to talk in private . jason : you do the talking . call your people . they 'll all tell you as of five minutes ago , your entire operation belongs to me . tracy : tell me , why does the haunted star always do better when you 're out of the country ? luke : because i was smart enough to hire a partner who has his finger on the pulse of port charles ' nightlife . tracy : yeah , uh - huh , but he 's still not going to give the place any class . luke : i beg to differ . i think this crowd he 's pulling in are going to drop a bundle . i will pay you back by the weekend . alice ? alice : in here , mr . luke . luke : my martini . robert : just the way i like it , too . luke : alice , what are you doing ? alice : well , mr . robert was just telling us how he saved your life . luke : that 's my massage , alice ! edward : welcome to my world , spencer . oh , by the way , i 've just hired scorpio . mm - hmm . his fee is quite reasonable and i anticipate a brief but very fruitful relationship . tracy : hired him for what ? edward : pest control . he 's promised to fumigate luke right out of our home . robert : it was the least i could do . i mean , edward and i , well , we go way back . edward : mm - hmm . robert : oh , by the way , he 's also invited me to move in . cheers . georgie : i 'm sorry . dillon : no , me , i am . i made a mistake . georgie : can we just forget about this and move on ? dillon : no . georgie : dillon , i screwed up . i really screwed up . i want -- dillon : don't . just stop . please , just let me -- ok ? me first ? i should n't have gone and left you . if i had thought about it , i would 've realized that that would hurt you , and the last thing that i want to do is hurt you . georgie : we both made mistakes , dillon , we both did , and it does n't matter anymore because i love you . dillon : i ve you , too , but it 's not that simple . robin : well , i ca n't wait to see little john . jax : yeah . robin : oh , there 's nikolas . jax : take care . robin : you , too . hey . nikolas : hey . carly : what kind of trash was she talking about me this time ? jax : no , she was actually saying that she would do her part to ensure john 's welfare . she 's a good friend . nikolas : i 'm so sorry i kept you waiting . robin : is everything ok ? nikolas : no , my grandmother 's on the loose again . apparently she confronted some people that i do business with , so i need to find her before things get out of hand . robin : do you really think she 'd hurt you ? nikolas : she certainly would n't hesitate to hurt people i care about . i mean , thank god that is public knowledge that jax is the father of courtney 's son . robin : i 'm sorry , i just ca n't believe that helena would hurt an innocent little baby . nikolas : if i ever give her an heir , she will do whatever 's necessary to take over that child 's life and try and mold him into her idea of what a perfect cassadine should be . i know this is all very exciting for you . robin : -- nikolas : anyway , what about you ? you said -- on the phone , i mean , it sounded like something specific you wanted to talk about . lorenzo : hey ! have you lost your mind ? diego : leave me alone . lorenzo : you do n't mess with men like that , they will kill you . morgan does n't care that you 're my son . diego : that 's because he does n't respect you . ok ?

[ luke growls ] skye : ok , i 've had enough . i 'm meeting lorenzo and if i were n't , i 'd pretend that i was . oh , escape while you can . oh . oh . you found out about georgie 's prom date . dillon yeah -- the harday . skye : i 'm sorry . [ tracy gasps ] tracy : my angel . you have come to your senses and returned to the nest . i 'm so glad because i really need someone on my side . dillon : oh , selfless as always . skye : hang in there . tracy : so , will you help me keep an eye on luke and help me figure out what 's he up to ? carly : you are so adorable -- you and jane and your one - track minds . you know , she hears wedding bells , too . jax : well , what were you guys talking about ? carly : we 're planning your son 's christening , but thanks for obsessing over me . jax : christening ? carly : mm - hmm . jax : why ? carly : because you have secured little john 's place in your life in every other way possible . now , you need to stand up before god and all of your friends and promise to nurture and protect that little boy as your -- am i wrong here or do you want to set me straight ? jax : no , no , no . my son needs to be christened . carly : like i said . jax : do n't i need to pick godparen before the big event ? carly : yeah , two . x : well , i wanted mike to be john 's godfather because that 's the only blood connection to courtney that john will have , and i think it would make courtney happy . carly : yeah . and since mike is john 's grandfather , he 'll be thrilled . jax : right . then let 's go pick a godmother . carly : hmm . jax : it 's going to be tough . i mean , skye would be great , do n't you think ? i mean , you know , her kid and john -- they could be great friends . carly : yeah , she 's great . jax : right . right . and then there 's alexis , of course -- lexis and robin , who i 'm both devoted to . it 's going to be tough . oh . i 'm just going to have to make a choice . yep , i 'm just going to have to make a decision . it 's done . carly : you ca n't seriously think about picking robin or alexis -- jax : carly -- carly : to be that little -- jax : would you be the godmother to my son ? carly : that was n't funny . jax : sorry . robin : having a meltdown at jax 's expense because of carly would be a huge mistake . maxie : but at least the truth would be out . robin : but , maxie , there is so much about this situation that we do n't know . maxie : you 're right . maybe carly does n't even know that nikolas is john 's father . we ca n't just automatically jump to the worst - case scenario . robin : come on , please . it 's carly . maxie : right she knows . robin : yes , and she 's probably the one that talked him into it to begin with . maxie : oh , my god . do you think courtney knew that nikolas was john 's father ? robin : i do n't know . you know what ? no , she could n't have known . she loved nikolas too much to keep that secret from him . maxie : do you believe in signs ? nikolas : hello . robin : hi . nikolas : hi . robin : you know , are you free for lunch later ? i do n't think we finished our conversation from the other night . nikolas : i would 've thought you had enough of me going on about courtney and her son . robin : no , not at all . that i important stuff you 're dealing with . nikolas : care to join us ? maxie : no , thanks . have plans . nikolas : ok . metro court ? robin : yes -- uh , 1 : 00 ? nikolas : yeah . robin : ok . nikolas : ok . maxie : you 're going to tell him , are n't you ? robin : i think courtney would want nikolas to know . maxie : ugh . i know , i know . i forgot to check in with my keeper . robin : hi . mac : nice to see you , maxie -- hi . college has been out for three days . we aeed you 'd move home for the summer . maxie : they 're letting us stay in the dorms . mac : that 's not what i hear . maxie : did he give you this much grief when you lived at home ? robin : yes , i believe so , but in retrospect , i am very grateful . georgie : ooh . mac : georgie ? georgie : is it ok if i move back home ? mac : i have one thing to say . georgie : if this sounds anything like `` i told you so , `` i 'm going back upstairs . mac : no . more like you 'll always have a home with your family . but since both you girls are going to be living at home now , i think we should revisit some ground rules . maxie : in case you 've forgotten , i 'm in college . georgie : i 'm married . robin : oh , come on , you guys -- be nice to him . just be grateful that you have a father around when you need him . robert : words to live by . you 'll never go wrong by respecting your dad . oh , is n't this quaint -- a family reunion . jason : please do n't call back . sam : we -- we have to talk . i need to see you and it -- it 'll only be a couple of minutes . if you can just give me , like , five minutes -- stan : oh . this can wait . jason : no , no . it needs to happen fast . bernie : i 'll make the arrangements . jason : thank you , bernie . just call me when everything 's ready . bernie : yeah . alexis : jason ? sam : hung up on me . alexis : sam , what are you going to do ? sam : i do n't know . he told me not to call him again . alexis : oh , i 'm so sorry . i ca n't imagine how much this hurts you . sam : no , you can't . if i could just talk to him , you know ? i just -- i need a couple of minutes to talk to him . i know that he would be able to hear me . i do n't even know who i am without jason . alexis : then that 's what we 're going to figure out . and i promise to keep it rant - free . sam : you keeping anything about jason rant - free ? i 'd like to see that . alexis : it 's because i understand why you can love him . jason is an easy man to love . it 's just living in his world is another story . you said something to me , that you did n't know who you were without jason . i want to know who you were before jason . what did you want , sam ? did you have any dreams at all ? sam : yeah . i wanted to make a big score and retire . because i always thought that if i had enough money , that i would feel safe . but it 's not about the money and i -- i feel safe with jason . jason makes me happy . alexis : you , you , you . i want to know about you . i want to know about you , what you want . you said you wanted your g.e.d . , that you wanted to go to college , that you even wanted to go to law school . sam : jason said i was just doing that because of you . alexis : well , so what ? sam : no , i mean , i think -- i think i would 've liked it . i think i would 've been really good at it . you know , i spent so much of my time on the wrong side of the law . it would 've been -- it would 've been nice to be on the right side of the law . alexis : you are focused and you are determined and you can do whatever you want . det . rodriguez : m sorry to bother you , ms . davis . ballistics got back to us on the durant murder . alexis : it 's ok . it 's ok , you can talk . det . rodriguez : the strike marks matched the bullet that shot ms . mccall . as the d.a . , i thought you 'd want to know . alexis : thank you . sam : durant is dead and you 're the new d.a . ? robin : dad , that 's a really nice gesture . but i happen to be a grown woman with , believe it or not , a life of my own . robert : exactly how long do you intend to remain angry with me ? i mean , just so that i can , you know , make a note on my calendar . robin : well , you know , that 's the thing -- i 'm not angry with you anymore . robert : oh . robin : i have come to realize some basics . number one , you can not change who you are no more than i can . so now i just find you mildly amusing . so now that i 'm all grown up , i do n't really need a father , but thanks for volunteering . maxie : wait , robin , were n't you just telling georgie and me that we should appreciate the father that we have ? robin : actually , i said appreciate that you have a father around when you need him , and we can all be grateful to uncle mac for that . mac : maybe we should cut robert a little slack . georgie : i 'm sorry i ruined your plans by moving home , uncle robert . robin : better luck next time . but you know what ? i 'm sure some agency will call you any minute and tell you that they desperately need you to go on a mission . robert : fortunately , i have plan b. i have this standing invitation at a place that , unlike yourself , they just ca n't get enough of me . luke : mmm . island life has its advantages , but , alice , i 'll tell you , nothing compares to the high - class joint you run . you make married life tolerable . tracy : i heard that . luke : oh , wife , come , sit your spanky buns down here . papa 's made this spot right here nice and warm for you . lulu : i thought you would ditch the stepmonster over the pacific . tracy : oh , you are a chip off the old block . do you want me to tell her or should you ? luke : well , i 'd rather not relive it , wife . tracy : i understand . holly , darling daddy 's dream girl , ditched him and ran off with the jewels -- or so she thought -- proving what i knew all along -- she 's just not that into you . lulu : sorry , dad . luke : ah , it 's ok , daughter . it 's true the english crumpet did do me wrong , but c'est la vie . i always have the bosom of my extended family to return home to . hey , pop , what do you say ? would you extend me a small loan ? edward : not on your best day . tracy : oh , thank you , daddy . you 're absolutely right , luke deserves nothing . oh , wait a minute . from now on , i am the center of your universe , not mr . luke , and should you defy me , i 'll put him hind bars . lulu : for what ? tracy : do you remember the jewels he was so desperate to get his hands on ? well , it turns out he was highly motivated . yosee , he 's been skimming off my accounts . in fact , he 's racked up so much debt that he could be in prison for decades . luke : but my wife has seen fit to reach into her heart and generously decided to take it out on my hide instead . edward : i say toss him behind bars . tracy : maybe , but for now i like him right where i 've got him -- firmly under my thumb . luke : ouch . lorenzo : i 'm returning this in person so there will be no mistake . with all due respect , juan , you 're wasting your money and my time . i have no interest in going into business with you . diego : i would rethink that , dad . jason : i have a lot of respect for you , ms . johnson . i am so grateful to you for the way you helped with sam 's recovery , ateful for the way you helped when manny ruiz grabbed elizabeth . epiphany : you 're going to turn me down . you 're not going to fire my son . jason : if stan wanted to quit , i would respect that , but i ca n't fire him . he 's done nothing wrong . epiphany : except spit in the face of his talent and his future . jason : i promise you i will do my best to see that nothing bad happens to your son . epiphany : i suppose that 's the best i can hope for . jason : i would n't blame you if you refused this , ok , but i have to ask . will you keep me updated on sam 's progress , at least for the next couple of days ? epiphany : what you did for sam , it obviously cost you a lot . i guess you 're one of those men that can handle a broken heart . you do n't even realize that not everyone is like you . alexis : thank you . a lot happened while you were unconscious . john durant was killed . he was caught in between carly and two snipers . and from what we just heard , it turns out that those were the same snipers who shot at jason when you got in the way . sam : so you get the big job ? alexis : reluctantly , mayor floyd offered me the job and i took it . but i 've spent most of my time here and this is where my focus has been , so i would n't be surprised at all if he took the job away as quickly as he offered it . sam : well , that would be good because , i do n't know , i do n't really like the idea of you being the d.a . of port charles . alexis : i get that . i hope you understand , too , that it 's a bss ring for anyone involved in the law . sam : right , and i hope you understand that you are going to make it your mission to prosecute the man i love , and i just -- i have a feeling that might put a damper on the whole mother - daughter bonding . [ knock on door ] ric : excuse me ? alexis : hi . ric : bad time ? sam : not at all . i should be resting , anyway . robin : hey . jax : hey . robin : i was supposed to meet nikolas for lunch , but i do n't see him . have you seen him ? jax : well , no , but i 'm sure he 'll be here . robin : what 's this all about ? jax : planning john 's christening , so i 'm just -- i 'm trying to learn this . robin : that 's great . jax : you know , i 've been sitting here thinking about how close i came to losing him and , you know , how amazing it is that he lived . this is my way to give thanks for my son and ask for god 's help and guidance in his future . robin : could all use a little of that . jax : you know , i 'm a little intimidated to be that boy 's father . john and i are getting closer every day . i 'm incredibly humbled at the prospect of shaping his life . alexis : i 've been waiting for you . oy ! oh , my goodness . hello there . hello . thank you for bringing them so quickly . will you do me a favor and go have lunch with molly , and i need to talk to kristina alone for a little bit ? viola : oh , absolutely . mm - hmm . alexis : and then i 'll call you when we 're finished . viola : ok . alexis : thanks . do you mind having a talk with mom ? ok ? kristina : do n't mind at all . alexis : ok . i 'm going to have to tell you some things that i really do n't think you 're going to be able to understand all of it , and i just want you to know it 's ok , you do n't have to . you just listen because mom always wants to tell you the truth . ok ? do you remember your friend lori ? kristina : yeah . alexis : ok ? you know she 's adopted and you know what that means ? ok . now , the same thing happened to mommy . when mommy was 16 years old , mommy had a baby , and mommy was n't old enough to take care of the baby , so she gave it to a family that could . well , it turns out now that that baby is not a baby anymore . the baby is a big , grown , beautiful woman who 's your sister . do you know who that is ? it 's sam . kristina : so sam 's my big sister ? alexis : is that ok with you ? kristina : are you going to give me and molly away like you di -- alexis : never . never , never . mommy waed till a long time so i could be a good mother and i would know how to take care of you , so you came right at the perfect time . and we will always be together , all of us , ok -- you , molly , me , and sam . sam : not long ago , you thought i was a deluded stalker . you were going to get a restraining order put on me . remember ? ric : i did n't know the circumstances . sam : wow . you must 've been thrilled when you found out i was the dead daughter . ric : no , i was happy for my wife . see , sam , i was there when alexis opened up the file and read that her little girl had been killed . and i held her in my arms and she cried , and even though she did n't believe me , i tried to convince her that it was n't her fault . now , as far as things being what they are , the only thing i was thrilled about was that alexis had received a miracle , and those are kind of rare tse days . now it 's not just up to alexis or fate , it 's up to you . you have a say in this . so i 'm asking you , as your stepfather , do n't blow it . make your own relationship with your mother , ok , apart from jason or anyone else . alexis : i brought a couple of people i thought might make you feel better . kristina : sam , you 're my big sister . sam : well , your mom is n't very subtle , now , is she ? should i say `` our mom `` ? alexis : ah . lorenzo : i have no quarrel with you , morgan . whatever business dealings you have with escobar , they have nothing to do with me . i 'm merely here to protect my family . jason : if you really want out of this , you and your son should leave now . any future discussion with escobar will only be interpreted one way . diego : look , you do n't give orders to lorenzo alcazar . lorenzo : try to remember what it was like to be young and hotheaded . gentlemen . juan : you and i need to talk in private . jason : you do the talking . call your people . they 'll all tell you as of five minutes ago , your entire operation belongs to me . tracy : tell me , why does the haunted star always do better when you 're out of the country ? luke : because i was smart enough to hire a partner who has his finger on the pulse of port charles ' nightlife . tracy : yeah , uh - huh , but he 's still not going to give the place any class . luke : i beg to differ . i think this crowd he 's pulling in are going to drop a bundle . i will pay you back by the weekend . alice ? alice : in here , mr . luke . luke : my martini . robert : just the way i like it , too . luke : alice , what are you doing ? alice : well , mr . robert was just telling us how he saved your life . luke : that 's my massage , alice ! edward : welcome to my world , spencer . oh , by the way , i 've just hired scorpio . mm - hmm . his fee is quite reasonable and i anticipate a brief but very fruitful relationship . tracy : hired him for what ? edward : pest control . he 's promised to fumigate luke right out of our home . robert : it was the least i could do . i mean , edward and i , well , we go way back . edward : mm - hmm . robert : oh , by the way , he 's also invited me to move in . cheers . georgie : i 'm sorry . dillon : no , me , i am . i made a mistake . georgie : can we just forget about this and move on ? dillon : no . georgie : dillon , i screwed up . i really screwed up . i want -- dillon : don't . just stop . please , just let me -- ok ? me first ? i should n't have gone and left you . if i had thought about it , i would 've realized that that would hurt you , and the last thing that i want to do is hurt you . georgie : we both made mistakes , dillon , we both did , and it does n't matter anymore because i love you . dillon : i ve you , too , but it 's not that simple . robin : well , i ca n't wait to see little john . jax : yeah . robin : oh , there 's nikolas . jax : take care . robin : you , too . hey . nikolas : hey . carly : what kind of trash was she talking about me this time ? jax : no , she was actually saying that she would do her part to ensure john 's welfare . she 's a good friend . nikolas : i 'm so sorry i kept you waiting . robin : is everything ok ? nikolas : no , my grandmother 's on the loose again . apparently she confronted some people that i do business with , so i need to find her before things get out of hand . robin : do you really think she 'd hurt you ? nikolas : she certainly would n't hesitate to hurt people i care about . i mean , thank god that is public knowledge that jax is the father of courtney 's son . robin : i 'm sorry , i just ca n't believe that helena would hurt an innocent little baby . nikolas : if i ever give her an heir , she will do whatever 's necessary to take over that child 's life and try and mold him into her idea of what a perfect cassadine should be . i know this is all very exciting for you . robin : -- nikolas : anyway , what about you ?

[ sighs ] i shut your computer down . i probably wo n't snoop again . michael : `` probably `` ? oh , no . excellent . i get it . i 'm supposed to thank you for not invading my privacy . kevin : just tell me , if it is an affair , that it 's over , and it 's not gon na happen again . michael : you have -- kevin : oh . lauren : an affair ? michael : [ scoffs ] no , lauren . no . kevin : uh , it was a case of michael 's -- cases . that 's all . lauren : [ sighs ] funny . i thought i heard you accusing michael of something . michael : kevin knows better . in fact , just two seconds ago , he was calling me a fool for love . i should be offended , but how could i be , because he 's absolutely right ? kevin : that 's true . i did say that . lauren : you did n't come here just to say that . michael : no . no , he brought us treats . kevin : i did , and , uh , now that i 've brought them , i 'm leaving . michael : good idea . kevin : i 'll call you later . michael : ca n't wait . i really am , you know -- a fool for you . lauren : so maybe i should just slip that nurse 's uniform back on and see if i could elevate your heart rate . michael : as much as i love the sound of that ... i do n't think so , sweetheart . lauren : and why not ? you say there 's no affair . so what 's going on with you , michael ? michael : [ sighs ] sharon : now really is n't a good time . our family has plans . victor : sharon , i 'm aware of your plans , okay ? another attempt at a wedding ? sharon : you sound disgusted , which is an honest response . it 's more honest than showing up here with a bottle of champagne and pretending -- victor : do you mind if you and i are honest with each other ? sharon : if you think you 're up for the task . victor : this is a mistake . sharon : victor , this is ridiculous . victor : sharon , you came to me months ago . you asked me to help you find whatever secret you were harboring in your unconscious because you were afraid it might hurt nicholas . that 's a good sentiment . you should follow that sentiment . you should call off this wedding . sharon : i have tried everything to remember , and i ca n't . and maybe that 's the way it should be . nicholas and i can get married . we can move on from all of this together . victor : what are you not seeing ? i come to you as a father who loves his son . you can not tell me , with good conscience , that you 're entering upon this marriage without some concern that you might hurt nicholas all over again . you 've got to call off this wedding . nick : damn it , dad . this wedding is happening -- no matter what . phyllis : yeah , i 'm off my game . the world just kept spinning , and i 've been playing catch - up . i - i 've been out of the loop so long , it started to really -- to mess with my head . honestly , it 's a little scary . you get that , right ? jack : of course we get that . phyllis : because if you two ca n't understand how hard this is for me , i do n't know where i 'd turn . jack : oh . summer : should we call the doctors ? phyllis : no , baby . i just have to sort out a few things . i was in this shadow for a year . you go back into the light , and it kind of hurts your eyes , that 's all . abby : phyllis ! hi ! i 'm abby -- abby newman . jack : abby , phyllis knows who you are . abby : oh . sorry . of course you do . i was just trying to be polite , not knowing what sort of state she 'd be in .

she wants the baby to bond with the new mother as soon as possible . besides , she does n't live here . i 'm sure she wants to go home and go back to work . ridge : because she 's running from something . taylor : i did n't get that sense , no . why do you always have to think the worst of everybody ? ridge : that way , i do n't get disappointed . taylor : [ sighs ] look , if it gives you any peace , i - i know that the baby 's healthy . i 've looked at the ob / gyn report , the first - week vitals , the labs . ridge : okay . then -- then why -- why does something about this not feel right ?

carter : well , a court will rule whether they satisfy the requirements for a legal adoption . do n't worry -- they do . flo : and then once the -- the court sees them , then what ? carter : the termination of parental rights is irreversible , florence . if that concerns you , maybe we 're moving too fast . flo : no , that 's not -- i just -- i mean ... what happens with all the documents afterward ?

<s>[INST] ridge : taylor ? taylor : ridge ? ridge : taylor ! taylor : what ? what are you doing here ? ridge : why do n't you answer your phone ? hi . taylor : what ? ridge : is kelly okay ? taylor : of course she is . why ? why would n't she be ? ridge : because i got a note saying to come see you . pam gave it to me . it was underlined . what does that mean ? taylor : oh , my gosh . the hazards of leaving messages with pam . she 's fine . she 's healthy as a horse . ridge : okay . good . 'cause when she had that cough , it just tore me up . taylor : oh , i know . you always thought every stuffy nose was cholera . ridge : well , as a parent , you 've got to be careful . as a grandparent , you got to be really careful . taylor : well , you better get ready for one more . kelly 's about to have a baby sister . carter : okay , these are copies . you do n't have to sign them . flo : okay . carter : this is the adoption agreement , the adoption order . in lieu of form 310 , we 're filing this affidavit , which relinquishes your rights to contact the child post - adoption . steffy : oh , that 's something we did n't discuss . i did n't realize we had to agree on that now . flo : it 's all right . steffy : are you sure ? [ baby fussing on monitor ] flo : yeah . i do n't really think of her as mine . i never really did , to be honest . hope : what if she has questions ? liam : um ... well , if she asks questions , then , do n't worry . i 'll answer them . but , uh , the doctor may already know . hope : yeah , she probably got filled in by dr . phillips . they both oversaw my pregnancy . liam : yeah . hope : but ... still ... [ sighs ] i feel really empty being here and not being pregnant . liam : i get it . dr. lin : hope . i 'm so sorry . dr. lin : placental abruption is n't `` rare , `` technically . but it 's uncommon . less than 1 % of all pregnancies . what causes an abruption is n't well understood , but the impact can have some bearing on future pregnancies . so i 'd like to examine you and do some lab work , if that 's okay . hope : of course . dr. lin : what i want you both to understand is that you did n't do anything wrong . ridge : i know steffy talked about adopting , maybe . she even did the -- the -- the thing . taylor : home study ? ridge : the home study , yes . taylor : oh . ridge : but i do n't think she 's gon na go through with it . taylor : well , you 're living proof that father does not always know best . meanwhile , steffy should be bringing home the baby today . ridge : today ? ! carter : this is steffy 's information . flo : why do i need that ? steffy : it 's my birth certificate , divorce decree , financial statements , a letter from the doctor saying i do n't have hiv or hepatitis . carter : the court needs it . you don't . but steffy wanted to offer it to you for your peace of mind . flo : i do n't see why that 's any of my business . steffy : did n't i tell you ? carter : [ chuckles ] flo : tell him what ? steffy : how special you are . just like your little girl . flo : i - i used to be a good person . or at least i used to think i was . steffy : florence , you are doing the most unselfish thing a woman is ever called on to do . i know it 's not easy . but i swear to you , your daughter will be surrounded by love every day of her life . ordinary tissues left dakota 's nose sore and red . [ cellphone whooshes ] excuse me , doctor . can you tell me where i can find the rest of the money you owe us ? reese : are you crazy , coming here ? you put yourself in this position . reese : i should have the rest of the money today . all of it ? reese : all of it . but if you go near my daughter again , if you come to my place of work again , i will call the cops , regardless of the consequences to me . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have patients to see . hope : hi . liam : hey . hope : hey . um , so -- so ... like , is there anything for us to be concerned about ? dr. lin : the exam went great . i think you 've been extraordinarily -- obviously `` lucky `` is not the right word , but there are complications , some of them serious , that can follow a placental abruption , and i see no sign of any of them . in the way of good news , i see nothing that would prevent you from conceiving again , and carrying a child to term . hope : i 'm not prepared to think about another pregnancy . dr. lin : understandable . hope : well , i 'm ready to go . are you ? liam : yeah . yeah , okay . dr. lin : uh , excuse me , doctor ... ? reese : buckingham . oh , i 'm so sorry . i 'm in the wrong room , obviously . ridge : why am i just hearing about this now ? taylor : i do n't know . i mean , who knew that this would work out so quickly ? ridge : well , that 's -- the speed is what bothers me . is steffy the one hurrying this along ? taylor : no , i -- i would n't say that . but she is keeping up with the pace . ridge : whose pace ? taylor : the birth mother . okay ? she wants the baby to bond with the new mother as soon as possible . besides , she does n't live here . i 'm sure she wants to go home and go back to work . ridge : because she 's running from something . taylor : i did n't get that sense , no . why do you always have to think the worst of everybody ? ridge : that way , i do n't get disappointed . taylor : [ sighs ] look , if it gives you any peace , i - i know that the baby 's healthy . i 've looked at the ob / gyn report , the first - week vitals , the labs . ridge : okay . then -- then why -- why does something about this not feel right ? taylor : because you have n't seen our daughter with thats . it 's like she was meant for her . it 's like she was meant to be kelly 's sister . carter : the documents are tabbed where i need you to sign . please read them carefully . i 'm able to witness your signature since i 'm not mentioned in the documents and do n't profit from anything in them . we thought that might be the best arrangement for privacy . but if there 's someone else you 'd rather call -- flo : oh , no . privacy is good . carter : okay . this is the most important document , florence . the termination of parental rights . without that , we ca n't do anything . you look like you have a question . flo : just , wh - what happens once i sign these and put my name on them ? carter : well , a court will rule whether they satisfy the requirements for a legal adoption . do n't worry -- they do . flo : and then once the -- the court sees them , then what ? carter : the termination of parental rights is irreversible , florence . if that concerns you , maybe we 're moving too fast . flo : no , that 's not -- i just -- i mean ... what happens with all the documents afterward ? carter : they become part of the state 's records of every citizen -- like a marriage license or a birth certificate . flo : well , what -- what if i do n't want anyone to know my name or where to find me ? steffy : you mean the child ? when she 's grown ? carter : california adoption records are exempt from public disclosure . flo : so that means that no one will be able to see them ? carter : i mean , there are -- there are exceptions , but not without your consent . flo : i guess that 's okay , then . carter : so , are we ready to get back on track ? flo : yeah . yeah . i - i 'm sorry . i -- you seem so nice , and i know that you 'll be a better mother than i would be , i just ... i just need to look out for myself a little bit , you know ? there 's little rest for a single dad , ridge : i guess that 's what happens when you live with a millennial . just on your phone all the time . taylor : i 'm waiting for a text . ridge : we 're all waiting for a text . taylor : [ sighs ] from steffy . as soon as she gets the adoption papers signed , i have to deliver that . ridge : yeah , i was looking at that . what is it ? taylor : ridge , what -- oh , my gosh ! ridge : are you kidding me ? what is this ? taylor : [ sighs ] ridge : i - is she adopting a whole orphanage ? how much money is here ? taylor : it 's none of your business . $ 200,000 . ridge : $ 200,000 f -- for one kid ? has it ever occurred to you that maybe she 's being taken ? taylor : it 's my money . what was i supposed to do , haggle ? ridge : this is your money ? taylor : yeah . ridge , i do n't need a financial advisor . i invited you here to give you some good news for a change . ridge : okay . what ? taylor : do you know what she 's going to name this beautiful little baby ? ridge : no . taylor : phoebe . ridge : phoebe . taylor : it 's perfect . ridge : [ sighs ] [ emotionally ] yeah . reese : i 'm so overbooked , i do n't know where i 'm supposed to be when . please forgive me . dr. lin : dr. buckingham , did you say ? you were the attending at the clinic when mrs . spencer ... reese : yes . that terrible night . i ca n't get it out of my mind . i do n't suppose i ever will . i ca n't imagine what it 's been like for you these past few weeks . hope : well , you were so caring . you know , you -- you tried as hard as you could , even with the odds stacked against us that night . reese : [ sighs ] sometimes life is too much like a rigged game of chance . hope : i - i know you 're busy , but , um , we still have a couple of things that we -- we do n't understand about that night , and -- dr. lin : perhaps i 'll just step out for a moment . hope : thank you . reese : uh ... dr. lin : come find me before you leave . reese : i ca n't promise you any new answers . understand that . it 's just , um ... you know , she had passed out , and i did n't arrive until it was over , so ... you 're kind of the only authority we have on this . reese : okay . uh ... what would you like to know ? hope : why we lost our little girl . flo : i do n't really understand a lot of this . steffy : yeah . it is n't my first time seeing it , but i know what you mean . carter : what would you like explained , florence ? flo : nothing . i guess sometimes you just have to take the leap , right ? carter : well , all the paperwork reduces the need for trust , but it does n't eliminate it . flo : this is a good thing that we 're doing . carter : now that the paperwork is done , we will arrange for the funds to be delivered to ... ? steffy : i actually do n't have the name of my mom 's original contact . flo : i said that i would text him . um , i should probably get the baby 's -- phoebe 's things together . steffy : florence , i ca n't thank you enough for everything you 're doing for me and kelly . our little family . flo : i know she 's gon na have a really good life with you . steffy : i promise . i promise . mmph . reese : i wish i could tell you more . i left as full a report as i could on hope 's record . hope : uh , she already told me what it said , but -- liam : but if dr . buckingham is saying there 's nothing more to add , then maybe there 's nothing more to add . hope : no . you -- you told me to keep pushing , so i did . i kept pushing . reese : hope , you did nothing wrong . hope : i know . that 's what everyone keeps telling me . but obviously something did go wrong , and i just -- i want to know why , you know ? why did i black out ? it 's like i slept through the most important thing in my life , the most -- the most terrible thing . reese : and that 's what it was -- a tragedy that i could n't prevent . liam : hey , hope -- hope : no , no , no . i just -- liam : maybe -- okay . hope : i - i want to ask what happened next . are you sure that she did n't cry or move ? because i felt her moving inside of me . reese : i 'm sorry . hope : nothing ? there -- there was ... there was nothing ? [ sobs ] doctor , if -- no . if i -- if i had n't passed out , would our -- would our beth still be here ? reese : i have a patient that i have to tend to . i 'm sorry . if you only knew how much . hope : [ sobs ] carter : okay . steffy , these are for you . and , florence , these are for you . and these are for me to file at the courthouse . steffy : thanks for everything , carter . carter : i 'm happy to do it . ca n't wait to meet the new family member . florence , thank you so much for all the thought and care you 've put into this . you 're amazing . bye . steffy : bye . so , i - i guess now we wait . flo : let 's not talk about money , though , please . steffy : oh , yeah . no problem . flo : so , i - i have -- i have all of her stuff here . um , the clothes , she 's not really gon na fit in for more than like a week or so , but there 's a -- there 's a binky and a rattle , but she does n't really play with anything yet . she mostly just eats and sleeps . heh . steffy : i do n't think i 'll be doing much of that for the next couple years . flo : [ exhales softly ] how old is your other daughter ? steffy : uh , she 's a few months older than phoebe . i guess it 's okay to call her that , right ? flo : yeah . it 's a beautiful name . steffy : as i mentioned before , i - i had a twin . she died in a car accident years ago . flo : i 'm so sorry . that 's awful . steffy : her name was phoebe . we were really close . flo : well , now your other daughter will have a phoebe of her own .

aly provoked steffy enough to murder her ? wyatt : okay , you keep throwing that word around here , but we do n't know everything , right ? ivy : no , because all i know is what i saw and what steffy lied to the police about . i mean , why would she do that ? if it really was just this act of self- defense , why would n't she tell the police that ? why would she say aly fell and hit her head ? i knew that she was in trouble that night . it 's why i was calling her and leaving her messages . i wanted to bring her back . i 'd done it before , and i could have done it again , but this time , i did n't get the chance . and then she died on the side of the road . i ... wyatt : you 're amazing . ivy : wha - what ?

ridge : thorne , come on . thorne : shut up , ridge . steffy : she attacked me . i just tried to defend myself , and th - then she slipped and she fell and she -- she hit her head . ridge : all right . that 's enough . come on . let 's go . thorne : no . no . i do n't believe you . i do n't believe that aly just fell , hit her head , and died . i do n't believe it . something else must have happened . you tell me . tell me !

sonny and kate return to his bensonhurst to look for her lost earring . when they enter the house , he is pleased to find that she has decorated it with all the trappings of christmas to give him the christmas he never had as a child in that house . she gives him the trumpet he wanted as a child . he kisses her under the mistletoe . she suggests changing the house that was a prison to him and his mother into a safe house for mothers and children escaping from abusive situations . he thinks it is a great idea . he says that leaving it as it always was only made it a shrine to all the damage that was done there . sonny watches little sonny disappear from the closet . they have a snowball fight in front of the house . sonny breaks someone 's window with a snowball . he and kate run away , holding hands .
<s>[INST] kate : you know , it 's got to be here somewhere . i 've looked everywhere else . and i 'm sorry to bring you back here , but if it was n't my favorite earring , i would n't have even asked . sonny : do n't worry about it . look , it 's probably -- probably in the house . you might have left it there , you know ? kate : yeah . you sure you 're okay ? sonny : yeah , i 'm okay . kate : you do n't look that way . sonny : it 's just -- no . we -- we 've been spending -- we 've been having such a good time and everything , you know ? i just do n't want to do anything to ruin it . and there 's not a lot of good christmas memories in there , you know ? so -- kate : i thought you were starting to make peace with the place . sonny : i 'm not sure i ever will .

[ sighs ] and i - i - i think that 's why you told me just now -- at least , i hope it is . 'cause it means you -- you already have had enough and you want to get help and you know you can trust me . sam : after what he did to me -- i do n't think i 'll ever be the same .

[ scene_break ] robin : you know that research is my passion , and i -- neglected that when i became chief of staff . i 've been avoiding what this patient 's going through , what her -- her family is going through . patrick : i understand that . i know it 's personal to you . i know you want to help any hiv patient that 's not as fortunate as you . you 've been blessed in a lot of ways , and this is your way of giving back . i get that . robin : i 'm just not hearing what i want from the current researchers in the field , and it 's -- it 's just killing me . matt : medical research kills another patient ? shocking ! let me see who the poor loser is . robin : hey ! hey ! matt : what ? robin : stop . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] ewen : and here we were getting along so well . elizabeth : [ sighs ] oh , my god . uh , you -- um , i am so sorry . i - i 'm intruding , and now i 'm just really embarrassed . ewen : curiosity 's perfectly natural . we all want to glimpse the unknown , especially when it 's off limits . we all want what we ca n't have . kind of like the man you 're going home to heal with . elizabeth : you were listening to our conversation ? ewen : it was honestly hard not to overhear . and for what it 's worth , i think you 're making a mistake . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] and why is that ? ewen : 'cause you 're leaving too soon and for the wrong reasons . elizabeth : okay , not that it 's any of your business , but i - i happen to know what i 'm doing . ewen : hmm . you 're doing what you planned . but i do n't think you know what the consequences will be , just as you did n't consider what the emotional consequences would be if i 'd arrived a few seconds later and caught you looking at my painting , as i specifically requested otherwise . elizabeth : [ sighs ] it 's just a painting . ewen : it 's an intimate form of communion , one that an artist is compelled to create by primal forces . it has a certain kind of truth which you wo n't find on other people 's canvases -- and may explain why you abandoned painting yourself . elizabeth : okay , y - y - you know what ? i - i do n't know why you 're here , and you do n't know anything about me or my life . ewen : i know what i 've seen . elizabeth : maybe you need to focus a little more on your own treatment and find some people skills while you 're at it . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't believe it . kate : [ laughs ] you said you always used to stare at the one in the window at finder 's keepers and wonder what your life would have been like if you 'd ever bought it , so -- it 's not the same one , but now we can find out . sonny : well , i think it 's a little too late for me to be a musician , do n't you think ? kate : what are you talking about ? sonny : what -- what do you mean , what am i talking about ? kate : well -- okay , when we were kids , you remember father lino ? sonny : yeah . kate : remember when he just suddenly took up ballroom dancing ? sonny : yeah . he was like 70 years old . kate : 82 . sonny : 82 . whatever . kate : yes , and he used to fox trot his way down the sidewalk to the rectory . you remember that ?

[ scene_break ] sonny : i really appreciate you -- chasing the ghosts away . kate : you 'll have to chase the rest of them away yourself . sonny : it 's all right . kate : i have a suggestion . sonny : yeah ? kate : we could turn what used to be a prison for you and your mother into a place of light and hope . sonny : that -- that -- that would be a - a real christmas miracle . kate : listen to me , sonny . we can transform this place into an emergency shelter for mothers and children in abusive situations . we could provide counseling , therapy , legal help . sonny : sounds great . okay . what do we got to do ? when do we start ? kate : i 've already got the ball rolling , contacted people in new york -- architects , builders , charitable organizations . you just have to say the word . sonny : and all i bought you was a scarf . kate : [ chuckles ] sonny : you know , when i -- when i , uh -- when i bought this place , i felt like i - i was -- i could own it , you know , so it would n't own me . and now i realize it was just a shrine to all the damage that was done here . but that 's all gon na change . you know why ? because of you . hmm ? kate : no , i ca n't take all the credit , sonny . you 're the -- you have so much courage . you came and faced this down . sonny : listen to me . you helped me move forward , right ? you let me see all the possibilities . and i know that i 'm not all the way there yet , but i 'm not gon na stop trying . but i can tell you right now -- it feels good not to be -- afraid of that darkness .

michael : why would i do that ? a.j . : look , i know you have no reason to trust me . michael : yeah , you 're damn right . whatever this whole thing is , is obviously some kind of a setup . a.j . : please just walk with me out to the pier . just listen to what i have to say . you deserve to hear the truth . michael : the truth ? why would i believe anything you say ? a.j . : all i 'm asking you to do is to listen to me . wait . what about over here ? starr : trey , i thought that we agreed we did n't want the woman who killed cole and hope to be free to walk the streets . trey : just wait . just listen , okay ? starr : why did you back out on me ? trey : i did n't back out . i swear . look , alexis filed the motion for me to become the legal guardian to kate howard , a.k.a . connie falconeri , ad litem . she said that i had concern for her mental health and that i was afraid that she was a danger to herself and everyone else . starr : okay , well , then , what happened ? trey : something that none of us really expected . sonny : it 's all johnny 's fault . if he had n't walked into the courtroom with connie on his arm , she 'd be safe in shadybrook right now . alexis : and i did n't anticipate that connie would burst in and object to my motion . sonny : insisting that only her husband can have her committed and telling the judge that the only reason i wanted her in the loony bin was because she dumped me at the altar . that 's why i had trey sign those papers . trey : connie told the judge that she was never my mother , that , you know , she did n't know until recently that she even had a son , that , you know , therefore , how could i possibly have her best interests at heart ? and , i mean , let 's be honest . she is -- have a point with that . i really do n't give a damn about her best interests . i just want to lock the woman up . starr : okay , but that can still happen , right ? please do not tell me that connie convinced the judge that she 's totally sane . trey : not yet . but she did schedule a hearing for her and zacchara to tell their side of the story . starr : sounds like really bad news . alexis : obviously , i would like to have wrapped this case up today . sonny : mm - hmm . alexis : but seeing that did n't happen , we have a chance to persuade the judge to get connie committed . we do . sonny : connie and johnny can make their own argument . alexis : but you heard what the judge said . he said that trey could make a case on why he should have connie committed , and that 's exactly what we need to do tomorrow . sonny : connie and johnny in that courtroom , the way they hate me -- you know it 's gon na get ugly . johnny : i would n't exactly call what happened in court today a win . connie : uh , i 'm not in shadybrook , am i ? johnny : anyway , i 'm not feeling like celebrating . connie : yeah . must be difficult to know that carly 's up in todd 's room getting her freak on . i mean , i would n't want to go up there , break that up . she 'd probably retaliate . i do n't know . if we ate here , she might poison our food . so , anyway , why do n't we go somewhere else ? how about we hit up kelly 's ? johnny : i 've lost my appetite . connie : okay . just gon na drown in your sorrows then , huh ? yeah . pay the tab on the way out , will you ? johnny : sorry about that , pal . you might want to discourage mrs. zacchara from dining here . the staff are used to miss howard . it makes them uncomfortable . johnny : okay . i 'll tell you what . i 'll make sure my -- wife stays out of this restaurant if you tell me mr. manning 's room number . todd : what 's wrong ? carly : nothing . nothing 's wrong . todd : you just said `` wait . `` carly : because . todd : because why ? carly : because of you . because of you . todd : because of me ? carly : yeah . you do n't want to do this . todd : i do . you know what ? i do . i really , really do . carly : your body wants to , but your heart is saying something totally different . todd : like , my heart is part of my body and , right now , my heart is pumping blood to the rest of my body . carly : you love blair . todd : blair 's not here . carly : you proposed to her . todd : yeah , she married some other guy . she 's some other guy 's problem . carly : she broke your heart . todd : look , whatever 's happening here or , in this case , maybe not happening here has got nothing to do with blair . carly : but you still want her . todd : i -- you know , for months now , you 've been telling me that i need to start over and i need to make a new start with someone else . why ca n't that be you ? why ca n't you be the someone else ? carly : i do n't want to be . i do n't want to be the rebound girl , todd , you know ? i do n't want to ! todd : if anybody 's rebounding , it 's you -- johnny . what are you doing ? why 'd -- why 'd you come here tonight , carly ? carly : you think i 'm here and i 'm interested in you because i 'm rebounding from johnny ? you 're wrong , okay ? you 're completely wrong . todd : great . that 's great . that 's great . that 's great . okay ? no , you 're not rebounding from the weasel . i 'm not rebounding from blair . we 're just two -- very healthy -- people who really enjoy one another . [ knock on door ] todd : go away ! johnny : carly ! carly , i know you 're in there . alexis : you got to stop this . you got to try to be a little positive here . sonny : i want to believe what you 're saying . i really do , okay ? but i ca n't . alexis : try . will you please try ? sonny : kate 's disappeared , connie 's in control , married that son of a bitch , and johnny -- what if that 's why she 's hiding ? what if -- kate came back , right , saw johnny , and just completely broke down ? alexis : it does n't do any good to speculate . sonny : all right , listen . um , i do n't know if you 've heard , but there 's been no word from jason . and sam is trying to convince herself that he 's still alive , but i know better 'cause he would have contacted me by now . so , i 've lost two people that i care about the most . you know , our daughter almost got killed , i lost my accountant , and now it 's gon na take me years to untangle my business affairs . you know what ? i 've just -- [ sighs ] feeling sorry for myself , i know . i know , i know , i know , i know . alexis : that 's what you pay me for . sonny : yeah . alexis : kidding . i know this sucks . i know you were happy and you wanted to marry kate and the whole thing is just shot to hell . carly : that 's johnny . todd : i do n't care . johnny : manning , open up ! i know you 're in there with carly ! todd : okay , correct me if i 'm wrong , but i 'm pretty sure he 's married to someone else . carly : you 're right . open the door . todd : hey , johnny . that 's a nice costume . i 'm all out of peanut clusters . johnny : if you -- if you 're doing this to get back at me -- carly : to get back at you ? i do n't give a damn about you . you know , i decided to re - evaluate my life and decide on what matters , and i 've wasted enough time with you . johnny : carly -- you have no idea who he really is , what he 's really about -- carly : thanks for the warning , but you know what ? i 'm just gon na assume it 's a lie like everything else you told me . todd : bye , johnny . johnny : i know i hurt you , but that is no reason for you to turn to him . carly : i do n't want to listen to you ! and i do n't want to see your face , so get the hell out of here ! go home to your wife ! todd : ooh . ouch . connie : [ laughs ] well , well ! look who it is ! my favorite mobster and his mouthpiece -- i mean attorney . you two having a little pity party ? alexis : mrs. zacchara -- or do you prefer connie ? connie : eh , either . alexis : okay , well , connie , it would be in all of our best interests if you found some place else to eat . connie : best interest -- those are the magic words . that 's why you showed up for court , right ? it was so much fun to watch you fall flat on your collective asses , i have to say . sonny : kate 's sick . you 're nothing -- just a symptom of the illness . connie : you know what , sonny ? you know what i think ? i think deep down you 're jealous because you wish that i was hot for you . not that that would ever happen , but if it did , you could stop pining for kate and get up close and personal with connie . sonny : there 's a name for women like you , connie . i never really liked that kind and i never will . connie : all right . i guess you prefer your phony little kate , then , huh ? well , suit yourself . not that you 're ever gon na see her again . sonny : do n't bet on it . connie : look , i know you thought you 'd be tucking me into shadybrook right now . i guess you 're gon na have to learn to live with disappointment , 'cause that ai n't never gon na happen . sonny : do n't get too cocky . it 's never too late . trey : look , i have no idea what connie and zacchara plan on saying to the judge tomorrow at the hearing , but , you know , even if the judge does n't buy their explanation , there 's still no guarantee that we can get her committed . i mean , yeah , i 've got the legal authority to do this , but then i 've got to tell the j -- hey , i 'm sorry . am i boring you ? hello ? starr : what ? what ? i 'm sorry . it 's just michael was supposed to meet me here and i do n't understand what 's taking him so long . trey : oh , whoa . oh , now i get it .

'cause they had morgan , their biological son , so according to you , my mom and dad gave me away . a.j . : look , i was trying to explain this to you in a way that you would understand . michael : this is what i understand . jason found out where i was . he came to get me . so , you took me and you ran back to port charles , and when things did n't work out the way you wanted , you shot your own father in the back . a.j . : that 's one of the biggest regrets that i 've ever had . michael : jason saw you sitting on top of the stairs . you had a gun in your hand and you were gon na kill him . i remember screaming for you to stop , then you and jason were fighting over the gun and you fell over the rails . i thought you were both dead and that it was my fault . a.j . : no , michael , no . none of this is your fault . michael : i know it 's not my fault . it 's your fault . and it just keeps getting better 'cause i saw dr. thomas kill you right in front of me . i -- i went into shock . i could n't talk for weeks . a.j . : michael , i 'm sorry . i did n't know . michael : you wanted to tell me the truth , right ? so tell me . are you honestly gon na deny any of that ? a.j . : no . no , i ca n't . but there 's two sides to every story . listen to me . i was trying to get you back from sonny , from jason , and , most of all , from your mother , who spent your whole life trying to keep you away from me . johnny : carly , listen to me . if you let me explain , i will tell you -- carly : i do n't want to hear it ! i made myself clear ! todd : do not disturb . can you do me a favor ? put that on the door on your way out . put it on the door . [ door slams ] carly : where the hell does he get off showing up policing my behavior ? todd : i - i 'm not sure , but i hope that this does n't stop us from going in there right now and jumping up and down on that huge king - size bed that you completely overcharged me for . i -- carly : really ? todd : he lies to you . he -- he pulls the rug out from under you , and i got to pay for his misdeeds ? carly : i -- sorry . i 'm gun - shy . you 're right . he lied to me , he humiliated me , and i ca n't go through that again . todd : you did n't do anything wrong . you just put your trust in the wrong person . and for the record , i told you so . carly : you did n't tell me . you did n't tell me anything . you did n't tell me what he was actually doing . todd : because i 'm not the guy that wants to see you humiliated . me -- i 'm the anti - johnny . i 've never misrepresented myself . i - i tell you all the time i 'm not a good guy , okay ? carly : that 's not true . you just said two minutes ago -- todd : yeah , because i wanted to kiss you . people say things . i -- all right , i 'm being completely honest with you right now . i 'm not such a good guy . it 's really nice for me that you think i might be . carly : i do n't want to mess this up by , um -- rushing things . todd : okay . okay . you know what ? i think that we have been thinking about this all the wrong way . carly : really ? todd : yeah . we have been . i think that you should have sex with me because that 's the best way you can get back at johnny for marrying connie . connie : now , this is what i 've been waiting for , sonny , because my hubby and i finally get to tell our side of the story . tomorrow the whole courtroom is gon na know the truth about us . sonny : when have you ever told the truth about anything ? connie : oh , you 're so slick , are n't you ? coming up with that whole plan to get my unwanted brat to sign those papers . alexis : he did have the legal right . connie : please ! he ca n't stand me . what 'd you do , huh ? what 'd you do ? did you promise him a new car ? alexis : we did n't have to do anything . you persuaded him all on your own . connie : i persuaded him ? sonny : you went knocking on his door , acting like you wanted to see your long- lost son , and that you 're so grateful that he took your side . he looked right through you , connie ! alexis : made a very compelling case as to why you can not be trusted and that kate can only be made whole and fully integrated if you no longer exist . connie : see , it 's kate that 's long gone , alexis . alexis : well , let 's let the court decide that , shall we ? and i , for one , will look forward to that . connie : you know what , sonny ? i think you better tell your attorney to back off . 'cause whatever you got planned in court tomorrow , i assure you you 're gon na lose . the gloves are coming off , and by the end of it all , there 's gon na be blood on the floor . alexis : well . connie : that was nice , was n't it ? now , if you 'll -- if you 'll excuse me . i 'm gon na go have sex with my hubby . see ya . michael : my mom and dad did n't force you to do a damn thing . they did n't force you to kidnap me or to shoot your own father or try and kill your own brother . a.j . : you know what ? there 's a lot i could tell you about your father and your mother . hey , i got an idea . let 's talk about the time that sonny threw me up on a meat hook , forced me to try and give away my parental rights . michael : that 's a lie . a.j . : no , it 's not a lie . it 's the truth . he told me if i did n't do it , that i 'd have a little accident , that they 'd find me dead , apparently of a drunk- driving accident , so i signed them away . and , michael , there 's not a day that goes by that i do n't feel sorry that i did this . but you know what ? i wanted to live . i wanted to have another chance with you . michael : you think you can spew out all this garbage and turn me against my father ? i grew up with him . i know he loves me . a.j . : you grew up with sonny as your father because carly would never accept me as your father . michael , she was so worried that i 'd find out that she was pregnant with -- you know what she did to me ? she drugged me , and she dropped me off in an alley like a piece of trash , and then she doused me with alcohol so that i would think that i drank again . michael : maybe you got drunk , passed out , and decided to blame it on my mother . a.j . : no , michael , no . i was in rehab . i was -- i was committed to staying sober . the only mistake that i made was telling carly that if i did fall off the wagon again , i 'd go to rehab out of state and i 'd never come back to port charles . well , hell , that 's all she needed to hear . i mean , she never wanted me to know that i was your father . as a matter of fact , she wanted me the hell out of there so that she could pass you off as tony jones ' , and when that did n't work , she passed you off as jason 's . michael : jason was helping my mom hold on to me when you tried to take me away from her . a.j . : she tried to take you first . look , do n't you get it ? i was struggling to stay sober . she made me think that i drank . she pushed me too far , and when i pushed back -- when i pushed back , she turned my brother against me . michael : do n't say a word against jason . a.j . : jason was my little brother , and i loved him very much . i never knew what carly did to get him all twisted around , what made him think that he had to take her side against me . michael : they were protecting me . a.j . : that 's what they told you , right ? there 's two sides to that story . listen to me -- carly lied first . now -- now , i 'm not exactly proud of what i did after that , but you got to understand something -- they were goading me every step of the way . michael , i know i 'm not a saint , but please believe i 'm not that same guy that i used to be . michael : oh , you 're a different guy now . after all those years of hiding , you 're suddenly a changed man . a.j . : yes . yes , i am , because now i know what 's important , and that 's you . son , please , i just want a chance to have a relationship with you , to show you that i can be a good father to you . michael : father ? did you hear anything i just said ? i already have a father . a.j . : michael , i heard you talking to your grandmother . i heard you telling her how you wish you knew what it would have been like to have a relationship with me if i had n't have died . michael : monica was grieving . i wanted to say something to make her feel better . now that i know that you 're actually alive , i 've got nothing to say to you . a.j . : then why 'd you ask for the picture , michael ? i mean , come on . come on . you must have wondered what this guy , a.j . quartermaine , was like -- the guy that 's your father . you know , is he just a -- i do n't know -- a compilation of all the bad things that he did ? or is there more ? well , now 's your chance to find out , son . starr : fine , trey , michael and i have not been together yet . are you happy ? trey : okay , i did n't mean to make you get all defensive . starr : we 're taking things slow . we 've been through a lot -- everything with cole and abby . trey : i get it . it 's hard to lose someone you love . starr : yeah , and i would like to know what 's taking so long at the drugstore . trey : maybe he chickened out . what ? i 'm sorry . you can be scary sometimes . starr : no , i 'm serious , trey . i 'm really nervous . i mean , michael 's uncle just got shot . they have n't found the killer . trey : let 's not go into total freak - out mode . i 'm sure he 's fine . maybe the drugstore just ran out of condoms . starr : are you kidding me ? trey : my offer still stands . starr : i appreciate you trying to make me laugh by you talking about your sex life , even though there is n't any , but i 'm really worried about this , trey . i 'm worried about michael . a.j . : michael , please just give me a chance . that 's all i 'm asking . [ cell phone rings ] michael : my phone . i got to go . a.j . : michael , please . just talk to me . michael : it 's not about you . i have somewhere i have to be . a.j . : okay . all right . um -- look , i 'd really like to see you again . i 'm gon na be up at the house . just please keep this between us . michael : why would i protect you ? a.j . : it 'll be a little hard for us to have a relationship from behind bars . michael : what makes you think i want a relationship with you ? a.j . : you 've listened to me this long . i 'm betting you 've got more questions . i just want the chance to answer them . michael : you mean feed me more lies about my parents . a.j . : no . no . i want you to think for yourself . but please just do n't tell sonny , do n't tell the cops , and please do n't tell your mother that i 'm alive . not until i have a chance to figure out what i 'm gon na do about these charges against me . michael : those charges were filed against you for a reason . a.j . : look , i understand that this is a lot . i 'm just asking you for two things . please keep this between us . just think about what i said . michael : i got to go . alexis : what are you doing ? calm down . i 'm not kidding . is everything okay ? alexis : we just had a little incident . sonny : i 'm sorry . i just -- here . this should pay for the damage . i 'll get it . let me get it . johnny : you missed a spot . connie : ah , look at that . my hubby decided to join me for dinner after all . johnny : do you ever stop ? connie : what 's with the face ? [ gasps ] oh . i think i know what happened . you went and found carly and todd going at it , did n't you ? carly : i 'm not gon na sleep with you to make johnny suffer , you know ? i do n't want to be that person anymore . todd : you 've never had revenge sex ? carly : yes , i have -- many of times . todd : whoa ! [ laughs ] carly : i mean , as recent as when i walked in on connie and johnny . todd : are you kidding me ? carly : no . todd : with who ? carly : sonny . but it did n't happen . i mean , it did n't happen , and cooler heads prevailed , and that has to happen now , okay ? todd : okay . c - can we agree on this ? can we agree that whatever happened or almost happened here was really nice ? and that if it ever did happen again , that it would be really nice ? carly : i agree . todd : something between us , carly . carly : i know . todd : okay . carly : but if i slept with you , it would be for the wrong reasons . todd : that 'd be okay with me , you know ? we could find a way to make meaningless sex meaningful . carly : todd ? todd : what ? carly : you 're my friend , and i do n't have many . jason was my best friend and he 's gone , so i ca n't lose you . thank you [ chuckles ] for tonight , you know ? it was -- interesting . todd : hey ! hey , hey , hey ! can i just ask you just one -- one quick thing before you go ? carly : yes . todd : your friend jason -- did you ever sleep with him ? oh ! carly : that was a long time ago ! todd : yeah , there 's still hope for me . i got it . connie : well , you 're in luck , johnny boy . i have n't eaten yet . but we got to find a new watering hole . you see the kind of people they serve in there ? johnny : well , they serve you , so they ca n't be that picky . connie : lose the ' tude , okay ? johnny : you know , you 're blackmailing me . you 're making my life a living hell . what the hell ? you expect me to just suck it up and be okay with it ? connie : well , i can tell you something that you 'll enjoy . a night at home , you , me , bed or whatever flat surface you prefer . come on . todd and carly are having sex . why ca n't we do it , too ? johnny , why do n't you let your wife take care of you ? johnny : on second thought -- connie : yeah ? johnny : -- i 'd rather kill todd manning . connie : [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] todd : well . maybe this is friends with benefits . you 're not ralphie . todd : no . wait , i 'm not ? no , but you are cute ! darlene , you got the wrong room . hey , get off my girlfriend , man . todd : sorry . ralphie ! i 've been looking all over for you . todd : i 'm gon na go take a cold shower . carly : [ exhales deeply ] [ chuckles ] oh , man . jason . this is kind of morbid , coming to the place where everyone thinks you died and talking to you , huh ? well , i did n't want to bust in on sam , and i really need to feel close to you right now , and jake 's is n't jake 's , so here i am . [ sighs ] i almost jumped into bed with todd tonight , and i could have . [ laughs ] i was really close . but for the first time , i stopped and i thought it through . i do n't want to find out that todd 's lying to me . i do n't want to get hurt , and i do n't want to get jealous , and i do n't want to make a whole bunch of mistakes and just destroy my life . i do n't know if i can trust todd . i know i really want to . [ crying ] and i know i really wish that you were here right now so you could tell me what to do . [ chuckles ] [ clattering ] hello ? starr : i texted michael 10 minutes ago , and he has n't texted me back yet . trey : well , maybe he 's on his way already . starr : well , then where was he before ? trey : well , what are you doing ? starr : i 'm going to walk to the haunted star . hopefully i 'll find michael along the way . trey : okay , well , just wait . starr : trey , no matter what you say , i 'm still going to go and look for michael . trey : what i was gon na say is i 'm gon na go with you and help you look for him , okay ? starr : okay . sorry . i -- where were you ? ! michael : where you going ? trey : nowhere . whoa ! actually , yeah . look at that time there , kiddos . i 'm , uh -- i 'm gon na go to bed . um , you guys have fun . do n't worry . i have earplugs . starr : would you stop ? [ laughing ] do n't pay any attention to him . where were you ? i thought you were just going to the drugstore . what took you so long ? michael : yeah , i , uh -- i got a little delayed . starr : okay , michael , if you do n't want to do this tonight , i completely understand . michael : it 's not that . starr : well , then , what is it ? michael , what happened ? michael : i just -- i just saw my father . carly : hello ? is someone there ? [ footsteps approaching ] carly : jason ? oh , my god .

<s>[INST] connie : hey , johnny . you know who makes a good dirty martini ? the haunted star . johnny : i told you , i do n't want to go there . connie : come on ! you do n't want to go to your own party ? johnny : no . the last thing i want to do is go to that place and have everybody jump down my throat for marrying you . it 's not my idea of a good time . connie : oh , well , i guess i should be happy that you 're not sitting home feeling sorry for yourself . hmm ? i 'm hungry . let 's eat . the restaurant 's been booked for a private party . connie : uh -- excuse me . someone rented this restaurant on halloween ? the party 's been on the books for months , miss howard . connie : okay , it 's mrs. zacchara now , formerly falconeri . you should know . it 's on your paychecks . johnny : we do n't need to make threats . it 's not this guy 's fault . connie : i need to know who okayed this without my say . mrs. jacks gave the okay . connie : mrs. jacks ? i see . well , i need to talk to her right now , so why do n't you go get her for me ? where the hell is she ? carly : um , that was , um -- todd : yeah . i 'm not sure of mrs. jacks ' whereabouts at the moment . connie : why not ? johnny : let 's just go eat somewhere else , please . connie : no . you 're gon na tell me right now or i 'm gon na demote you to busboy . mrs. jacks hired me . only mrs. jacks can -- demote me . however , if you wish to discuss it with her personally , i believe she 's in mr. manning 's suite . johnny : oh , wait a minute . carly 's where ? [ clears throat ] alexis : you do n't like your burger ? sonny : yeah . alexis : i know you wanted things to go differently today . sonny : kate was supposed to be committed to shadybrook , on her way to recovery . alexis : i 'm sorry things did n't go your way in court . starr : [ sighs ] trey ? okay . thank god . [ sighs ] michael : i really want to be with you -- if that 's what you want . starr : well , you know , i did n't know how i would feel when i would be ready to take the next step , but -- i know how i feel now , and it 's -- perfect . get it together , manning ! why are you so nervous ?

[ laughs ] it 's like a conspiracy . carly : [ laughs ] excuse me . connie : how do you like that ? carly 's up in todd manning 's room . johnny : zip it . connie : look , it did n't take her long to get over you , but it is halloween . maybe she just wanted a little candy . johnny : carly and todd are just friends , all right ? connie : a little more than that , johnny . not that i blame her , because i did see todd with his shirt off . i wonder if she 'd share him with me . johnny : there 's nothing between them , all right ? connie : hey . you know how cute you are when you 're in denial ? come on ! turn that frown upside down , john - john . we got something to celebrate tonight . we won in court today . sonny : i do n't even know what i 'm doing here , 'cause i should have gone home . alexis : where are you going ? no . you 're not going home . you 're not going home to brood . sonny : i do n't know how to stop that , alexis . alexis : well , you 're gon na have to figure out a way . sit down . sit down right now . sonny : [ sighs ] alexis : once you brood , you go to the dark place , and then when you go to the dark place , even badder things happen . sonny : well , i ca n't have bad things happen , 'cause i just -- you know , just lost jason . kate needs me more than ever . alexis : exactly . so keep it together . and you also need to understand that there 's a limit to the actions that you can take legally to get kate treatment . sonny : but i thought once trey signed the commitment papers that , you know , we were free and clear . alexis : so did i. i 'm sorry . sonny : why are you sorry ? you 're not to blame . what happened in court was not your fault . starr : uh , what are you doing here ? since when do you knock at your own door ? trey : since i forgot my keys , but since we are trading explanations here , who are you expecting ? starr : forget about me . what happened at the hearing ? trey : the commitment hearing ? starr : yes . did you finally get your mom sent to shadybrook ? trey : can you do me a favor ? just please do n't call her that . starr : all right . connie . i 'm sorry . connie . did you get connie committed finally ? trey : mm , no , i did n't . carly : oh ! we have to wait . michael : what the hell is going on ? who are you ? a.j . : i 'm a.j . quartermaine , and i 'm your father . michael : a.j . quartermaine is dead . my father is sonny corinthos . a.j . : michael , i can see it in your eyes . i know you believe me . please . michael : i saw dr. thomas smother a.j . 's face with a pillow . i was in the room when he died . a.j . : well , then , you tell me how i can be standing here right in front of you . michael : what ? there 's a place where the sky is always blue a.j . : michael , please . i can explain everything if you 'll just let me . let 's go out on the deck . a.j . : look , someone 's coming . please , no one can know i 'm here . michael : then leave . a.j . : will you come with me ? michael : why would i do that ? a.j . : look , i know you have no reason to trust me . michael : yeah , you 're damn right . whatever this whole thing is , is obviously some kind of a setup . a.j . : please just walk with me out to the pier . just listen to what i have to say . you deserve to hear the truth . michael : the truth ? why would i believe anything you say ? a.j . : all i 'm asking you to do is to listen to me . wait . what about over here ? starr : trey , i thought that we agreed we did n't want the woman who killed cole and hope to be free to walk the streets . trey : just wait . just listen , okay ? starr : why did you back out on me ? trey : i did n't back out . i swear . look , alexis filed the motion for me to become the legal guardian to kate howard , a.k.a . connie falconeri , ad litem . she said that i had concern for her mental health and that i was afraid that she was a danger to herself and everyone else . starr : okay , well , then , what happened ? trey : something that none of us really expected . sonny : it 's all johnny 's fault . if he had n't walked into the courtroom with connie on his arm , she 'd be safe in shadybrook right now . alexis : and i did n't anticipate that connie would burst in and object to my motion . sonny : insisting that only her husband can have her committed and telling the judge that the only reason i wanted her in the loony bin was because she dumped me at the altar . that 's why i had trey sign those papers . trey : connie told the judge that she was never my mother , that , you know , she did n't know until recently that she even had a son , that , you know , therefore , how could i possibly have her best interests at heart ? and , i mean , let 's be honest . she is -- have a point with that . i really do n't give a damn about her best interests . i just want to lock the woman up . starr : okay , but that can still happen , right ? please do not tell me that connie convinced the judge that she 's totally sane . trey : not yet . but she did schedule a hearing for her and zacchara to tell their side of the story . starr : sounds like really bad news . alexis : obviously , i would like to have wrapped this case up today . sonny : mm - hmm . alexis : but seeing that did n't happen , we have a chance to persuade the judge to get connie committed . we do . sonny : connie and johnny can make their own argument . alexis : but you heard what the judge said . he said that trey could make a case on why he should have connie committed , and that 's exactly what we need to do tomorrow . sonny : connie and johnny in that courtroom , the way they hate me -- you know it 's gon na get ugly . johnny : i would n't exactly call what happened in court today a win . connie : uh , i 'm not in shadybrook , am i ? johnny : anyway , i 'm not feeling like celebrating . connie : yeah . must be difficult to know that carly 's up in todd 's room getting her freak on . i mean , i would n't want to go up there , break that up . she 'd probably retaliate . i do n't know . if we ate here , she might poison our food . so , anyway , why do n't we go somewhere else ? how about we hit up kelly 's ? johnny : i 've lost my appetite . connie : okay . just gon na drown in your sorrows then , huh ? yeah . pay the tab on the way out , will you ? johnny : sorry about that , pal . you might want to discourage mrs. zacchara from dining here . the staff are used to miss howard . it makes them uncomfortable . johnny : okay . i 'll tell you what . i 'll make sure my -- wife stays out of this restaurant if you tell me mr. manning 's room number . todd : what 's wrong ? carly : nothing . nothing 's wrong . todd : you just said `` wait . `` carly : because . todd : because why ? carly : because of you . because of you . todd : because of me ? carly : yeah . you do n't want to do this . todd : i do . you know what ?

why ca n't you be the someone else ? carly : i do n't want to be . i do n't want to be the rebound girl , todd , you know ? i do n't want to ! todd : if anybody 's rebounding , it 's you -- johnny . what are you doing ? why 'd -- why 'd you come here tonight , carly ? carly : you think i 'm here and i 'm interested in you because i 'm rebounding from johnny ? you 're wrong , okay ? you 're completely wrong . todd : great . that 's great . that 's great . that 's great . okay ? no , you 're not rebounding from the weasel . i 'm not rebounding from blair . we 're just two -- very healthy -- people who really enjoy one another . [ knock on door ] todd : go away ! johnny : carly ! carly , i know you 're in there . alexis : you got to stop this . you got to try to be a little positive here . sonny : i want to believe what you 're saying . i really do , okay ? but i ca n't . alexis : try . will you please try ? sonny : kate 's disappeared , connie 's in control , married that son of a bitch , and johnny -- what if that 's why she 's hiding ? what if -- kate came back , right , saw johnny , and just completely broke down ? alexis : it does n't do any good to speculate . sonny : all right , listen . um , i do n't know if you 've heard , but there 's been no word from jason . and sam is trying to convince herself that he 's still alive , but i know better 'cause he would have contacted me by now . so , i 've lost two people that i care about the most . you know , our daughter almost got killed , i lost my accountant , and now it 's gon na take me years to untangle my business affairs . you know what ? i 've just -- [ sighs ] feeling sorry for myself , i know . i know , i know , i know , i know . alexis : that 's what you pay me for . sonny : yeah . alexis : kidding . i know this sucks . i know you were happy and you wanted to marry kate and the whole thing is just shot to hell . carly : that 's johnny . todd : i do n't care . johnny : manning , open up ! i know you 're in there with carly ! todd : okay , correct me if i 'm wrong , but i 'm pretty sure he 's married to someone else . carly : you 're right . open the door . todd : hey , johnny . that 's a nice costume . i 'm all out of peanut clusters . johnny : if you -- if you 're doing this to get back at me -- carly : to get back at you ? i do n't give a damn about you . you know , i decided to re - evaluate my life and decide on what matters , and i 've wasted enough time with you . johnny : carly -- you have no idea who he really is , what he 's really about -- carly : thanks for the warning , but you know what ? i 'm just gon na assume it 's a lie like everything else you told me . todd : bye , johnny . johnny : i know i hurt you , but that is no reason for you to turn to him . carly : i do n't want to listen to you ! and i do n't want to see your face , so get the hell out of here ! go home to your wife ! todd : ooh . ouch . connie : [ laughs ] well , well ! look who it is ! my favorite mobster and his mouthpiece -- i mean attorney . you two having a little pity party ? alexis : mrs. zacchara -- or do you prefer connie ? connie : eh , either . alexis : okay , well , connie , it would be in all of our best interests if you found some place else to eat . connie : best interest -- those are the magic words . that 's why you showed up for court , right ? it was so much fun to watch you fall flat on your collective asses , i have to say . sonny : kate 's sick . you 're nothing -- just a symptom of the illness . connie : you know what , sonny ? you know what i think ? i think deep down you 're jealous because you wish that i was hot for you . not that that would ever happen , but if it did , you could stop pining for kate and get up close and personal with connie . sonny : there 's a name for women like you , connie . i never really liked that kind and i never will . connie : all right . i guess you prefer your phony little kate , then , huh ? well , suit yourself . not that you 're ever gon na see her again . sonny : do n't bet on it . connie : look , i know you thought you 'd be tucking me into shadybrook right now . i guess you 're gon na have to learn to live with disappointment , 'cause that ai n't never gon na happen . sonny : do n't get too cocky . it 's never too late . trey : look , i have no idea what connie and zacchara plan on saying to the judge tomorrow at the hearing , but , you know , even if the judge does n't buy their explanation , there 's still no guarantee that we can get her committed . i mean , yeah , i 've got the legal authority to do this , but then i 've got to tell the j -- hey , i 'm sorry . am i boring you ? hello ? starr : what ? what ? i 'm sorry . it 's just michael was supposed to meet me here and i do n't understand what 's taking him so long . trey : oh , whoa . oh , now i get it .

'cause they had morgan , their biological son , so according to you , my mom and dad gave me away . a.j . : look , i was trying to explain this to you in a way that you would understand . michael : this is what i understand . jason found out where i was . he came to get me . so , you took me and you ran back to port charles , and when things did n't work out the way you wanted , you shot your own father in the back . a.j . : that 's one of the biggest regrets that i 've ever had . michael : jason saw you sitting on top of the stairs . you had a gun in your hand and you were gon na kill him . i remember screaming for you to stop , then you and jason were fighting over the gun and you fell over the rails . i thought you were both dead and that it was my fault . a.j . : no , michael , no . none of this is your fault . michael : i know it 's not my fault . it 's your fault . and it just keeps getting better 'cause i saw dr. thomas kill you right in front of me . i -- i went into shock . i could n't talk for weeks . a.j . : michael , i 'm sorry . i did n't know . michael : you wanted to tell me the truth , right ? so tell me . are you honestly gon na deny any of that ? a.j . : no . no , i ca n't . but there 's two sides to every story . listen to me . i was trying to get you back from sonny , from jason , and , most of all , from your mother , who spent your whole life trying to keep you away from me . johnny : carly , listen to me . if you let me explain , i will tell you -- carly : i do n't want to hear it ! i made myself clear ! todd : do not disturb . can you do me a favor ? put that on the door on your way out . put it on the door . [ door slams ] carly : where the hell does he get off showing up policing my behavior ? todd : i - i 'm not sure , but i hope that this does n't stop us from going in there right now and jumping up and down on that huge king - size bed that you completely overcharged me for . i -- carly : really ? todd : he lies to you . he -- he pulls the rug out from under you , and i got to pay for his misdeeds ? carly : i -- sorry . i 'm gun - shy . you 're right . he lied to me , he humiliated me , and i ca n't go through that again . todd : you did n't do anything wrong . you just put your trust in the wrong person . and for the record , i told you so . carly : you did n't tell me . you did n't tell me anything . you did n't tell me what he was actually doing . todd : because i 'm not the guy that wants to see you humiliated . me -- i 'm the anti - johnny . i 've never misrepresented myself . i - i tell you all the time i 'm not a good guy , okay ? carly : that 's not true . you just said two minutes ago -- todd : yeah , because i wanted to kiss you . people say things . i -- all right , i 'm being completely honest with you right now . i 'm not such a good guy . it 's really nice for me that you think i might be . carly : i do n't want to mess this up by , um -- rushing things . todd : okay . okay . you know what ? i think that we have been thinking about this all the wrong way . carly : really ? todd : yeah . we have been . i think that you should have sex with me because that 's the best way you can get back at johnny for marrying connie . connie : now , this is what i 've been waiting for , sonny , because my hubby and i finally get to tell our side of the story . tomorrow the whole courtroom is gon na know the truth about us . sonny : when have you ever told the truth about anything ? connie : oh , you 're so slick , are n't you ? coming up with that whole plan to get my unwanted brat to sign those papers . alexis : he did have the legal right . connie : please ! he ca n't stand me . what 'd you do , huh ? what 'd you do ? did you promise him a new car ? alexis : we did n't have to do anything . you persuaded him all on your own . connie : i persuaded him ? sonny : you went knocking on his door , acting like you wanted to see your long- lost son , and that you 're so grateful that he took your side . he looked right through you , connie ! alexis : made a very compelling case as to why you can not be trusted and that kate can only be made whole and fully integrated if you no longer exist . connie : see , it 's kate that 's long gone , alexis . alexis : well , let 's let the court decide that , shall we ? and i , for one , will look forward to that . connie : you know what , sonny ? i think you better tell your attorney to back off . 'cause whatever you got planned in court tomorrow , i assure you you 're gon na lose . the gloves are coming off , and by the end of it all , there 's gon na be blood on the floor . alexis : well . connie : that was nice , was n't it ? now , if you 'll -- if you 'll excuse me . i 'm gon na go have sex with my hubby . see ya . michael : my mom and dad did n't force you to do a damn thing . they did n't force you to kidnap me or to shoot your own father or try and kill your own brother . a.j . : you know what ? there 's a lot i could tell you about your father and your mother . hey , i got an idea . let 's talk about the time that sonny threw me up on a meat hook , forced me to try and give away my parental rights . michael : that 's a lie . a.j . : no , it 's not a lie . it 's the truth . he told me if i did n't do it , that i 'd have a little accident , that they 'd find me dead , apparently of a drunk- driving accident , so i signed them away . and , michael , there 's not a day that goes by that i do n't feel sorry that i did this . but you know what ? i wanted to live . i wanted to have another chance with you . michael : you think you can spew out all this garbage and turn me against my father ? i grew up with him . i know he loves me . a.j . : you grew up with sonny as your father because carly would never accept me as your father . michael , she was so worried that i 'd find out that she was pregnant with -- you know what she did to me ? she drugged me , and she dropped me off in an alley like a piece of trash , and then she doused me with alcohol so that i would think that i drank again . michael : maybe you got drunk , passed out , and decided to blame it on my mother . a.j . : no , michael , no . i was in rehab . i was -- i was committed to staying sober . the only mistake that i made was telling carly that if i did fall off the wagon again , i 'd go to rehab out of state and i 'd never come back to port charles . well , hell , that 's all she needed to hear . i mean , she never wanted me to know that i was your father . as a matter of fact , she wanted me the hell out of there so that she could pass you off as tony jones ' , and when that did n't work , she passed you off as jason 's . michael : jason was helping my mom hold on to me when you tried to take me away from her . a.j . : she tried to take you first . look , do n't you get it ? i was struggling to stay sober . she made me think that i drank . she pushed me too far , and when i pushed back -- when i pushed back , she turned my brother against me . michael : do n't say a word against jason . a.j . : jason was my little brother , and i loved him very much . i never knew what carly did to get him all twisted around , what made him think that he had to take her side against me . michael : they were protecting me . a.j . : that 's what they told you , right ? there 's two sides to that story . listen to me -- carly lied first . now -- now , i 'm not exactly proud of what i did after that , but you got to understand something -- they were goading me every step of the way . michael , i know i 'm not a saint , but please believe i 'm not that same guy that i used to be . michael : oh , you 're a different guy now . after all those years of hiding , you 're suddenly a changed man . a.j . : yes . yes , i am , because now i know what 's important , and that 's you . son , please , i just want a chance to have a relationship with you , to show you that i can be a good father to you . michael : father ? did you hear anything i just said ? i already have a father . a.j . : michael , i heard you talking to your grandmother . i heard you telling her how you wish you knew what it would have been like to have a relationship with me if i had n't have died . michael : monica was grieving . i wanted to say something to make her feel better . now that i know that you 're actually alive , i 've got nothing to say to you . a.j . : then why 'd you ask for the picture , michael ? i mean , come on . come on . you must have wondered what this guy , a.j . quartermaine , was like -- the guy that 's your father . you know , is he just a -- i do n't know -- a compilation of all the bad things that he did ? or is there more ? well , now 's your chance to find out , son . starr : fine , trey , michael and i have not been together yet . are you happy ? trey : okay , i did n't mean to make you get all defensive . starr : we 're taking things slow . we 've been through a lot -- everything with cole and abby . trey : i get it . it 's hard to lose someone you love . starr : yeah , and i would like to know what 's taking so long at the drugstore . trey : maybe he chickened out . what ? i 'm sorry . you can be scary sometimes . starr : no , i 'm serious , trey . i 'm really nervous . i mean , michael 's uncle just got shot . they have n't found the killer . trey : let 's not go into total freak - out mode . i 'm sure he 's fine . maybe the drugstore just ran out of condoms . starr : are you kidding me ? trey : my offer still stands . starr : i appreciate you trying to make me laugh by you talking about your sex life , even though there is n't any , but i 'm really worried about this , trey . i 'm worried about michael . a.j . : michael , please just give me a chance . that 's all i 'm asking . [ cell phone rings ] michael : my phone . i got to go . a.j . : michael , please . just talk to me . michael : it 's not about you . i have somewhere i have to be . a.j . : okay . all right . um -- look , i 'd really like to see you again . i 'm gon na be up at the house . just please keep this between us . michael : why would i protect you ? a.j . : it 'll be a little hard for us to have a relationship from behind bars . michael : what makes you think i want a relationship with you ? a.j . : you 've listened to me this long . i 'm betting you 've got more questions . i just want the chance to answer them . michael : you mean feed me more lies about my parents . a.j . : no . no . i want you to think for yourself . but please just do n't tell sonny , do n't tell the cops , and please do n't tell your mother that i 'm alive . not until i have a chance to figure out what i 'm gon na do about these charges against me . michael : those charges were filed against you for a reason . a.j . : look , i understand that this is a lot . i 'm just asking you for two things . please keep this between us . just think about what i said . michael : i got to go . alexis : what are you doing ? calm down . i 'm not kidding . is everything okay ? alexis : we just had a little incident . sonny : i 'm sorry . i just -- here . this should pay for the damage . i 'll get it . let me get it . johnny : you missed a spot . connie : ah , look at that . my hubby decided to join me for dinner after all . johnny : do you ever stop ? connie : what 's with the face ?

[ scene_break ] lorenzo : sonny controls the waterfront . james : well , we 'll have to remedy that . lorenzo : for the most part , he has a lock on water transportation . we try to coexist , but occasionally i have to make adjustments to accommodate sonny 's ego . james : what adjustments ? lorenzo : over the last month alone , sonny has raided several of my shipments . james : why is this man still alive ? lorenzo : good question . timing . with this big shipment coming up , i could n't risk an all - out war . james : and there ca n't be any problems with this particular shipment . lorenzo : that 's why i took things into my own hands . the plan went bad , and the bottom line is that sonny still remains a threat .

judge carroll : michael , do you understand the question that was put to you ? michael : yes . judge carroll : medical evidence has been presented that you suffered brain damage . i want to be absolutely certain you understand what you were asked and are in full possession of your faculties when you replied . to that end , i want you to repeat my question back to me . michael : you asked me if i killed my stepmother , claudia zacchara corinthos . judge carroll : and did you ? young man , are you incapable of answering , or are you refusing to answer ? michael : no . judge carroll : no what ? `` no , `` you did not kill your stepmother ? michael : no , i 'm not refusing to answer your question . judge carroll : well , you 're certainly taking your time about it . michael : sorry . judge carroll : young man , the court is well aware you 've been intimidated and pressured and lied to and lied about and generally coerced into a cover - up of the events that took place surrounding the death of claudia zacchara corinthos on november 4 , 2009 . however , you are now in a court of law . you have been asked a direct question by the court . declining to reply is not an option . you will be held in contempt and subject to criminal prosecution . do you understand ? michael : yes , your honor . ahem . judge carroll : now , detective falconeri has given testimony and presented evidence that you killed claudia corinthos on the night of november 4 . did you , in fact , do so ? michael : yes , your honor . judge carroll : i 'm going to need to hear you say the words , son . michael : on the night of november 4 , i killed my stepmother , claudia zacchara corinthos . judge carroll : michael corinthos iii , will you tell the court , in your own words , how you came to take the life of claudia zacchara corinthos on the night of november 4 of last year ? michael : where do you want me to start ? judge carroll : the same place i expect you to end -- by telling the truth . michael : i mean , do you want me to start at claudia 's party , or when i drove away from the house ? judge carroll : well , do you feel that any of that is relevant to your actions in the cabin ? michael : the party was . claudia lost it completely . she had a gun . my mom was begging jason to shoot her , but he could n't get a shot . she took my mom into the elevator , and my mom could barely stand up straight 'cause the labor just started . and she was so scared . you know , mom -- my mom does n't really get scared , so i knew -- i knew that -- and no one -- no one could find her or claudia . judge carroll : so did you take it upon yourself to look for her ? michael : no . i decided to leave . i convinced myself that everyone would be better off if i was n't around , which is stupid . like everyone did n't have enough to already deal with . so i -- [ exhales ] i drove north going to canada on route 56 , and i saw a wrecked car on the side of the road . i went to go check out the car , and it had a -- a valet ticket to the metro court . and then , i realized it was the car that claudia used to take my mother away . i followed a trail to the woods to the cabin . and as i got closer , i heard my mom screaming . she 's begging for claudia not to take the baby , and that would be josslyn , my baby sister . i ran to the porch . i grabbed something -- the ax handle . and i ran inside , and i saw claudia was standing there with my baby sister in a basket , and she 's trying to leave . my mom was still on the couch screaming . yeah , and i hit her . and she fell , and she died . judge carroll : now , to the best of your recollection , what were you thinking when you picked up the ax handle and came in the door ? michael : that mom needed my help , that claudia was going to hurt my mom and my baby sister , and that i needed to stop her . judge carroll : and when did you realize your stepmother was dead ? michael : right away . i knelt down beside claudia 's body , and there was a lot of blood , you know . and it got on my hands and on my shirt , and later , it got on my dad 's shirt . judge carroll : and at what point did your father , michael sonny corinthos , arrive at the cabin ? michael : my dad was never there . jason and sam showed up . sam took my sister and my mom to the hospital , and jason and me went outside to the road to wait for my dad . judge carroll : and what happened subsequent to your father 's arrival ? michael : he and jason talked for a while . judge carroll : you hear what was said ? michael : no , but i 'm sure they were talking about how to handle all this . they did n't want me to get into trouble . judge carroll : did anyone , at any time -- mother , father , jason morgan , samantha mccall -- suggest notifying the police ? michael : no . judge carroll : and after your father had conferred with mr. morgan , what happened next ? michael : my dad drove me home in my car . judge carroll : well , i want to commend you , michael , for your decision to cooperate with the court , and i wish to thank you for answering clearly and , under the circumstances , remarkably concisely . now , i have just one final question . when you walked through the door to the cabin wielding the ax handle and struck your stepmother , were you trying to kill her ? michael : i did n't care what happened to claudia . i just wanted to protect my mom and my baby sister . judge carroll : all right . michael corinthos jr. , you have confessed to taking the life of claudia corinthos on the night of november 4 , 2009 . and the court finds that you are in full possession of your mental faculties and also finds your confession to be credible and in accord with the evidence and the timeline presented by agents of law enforcement , specifically detective dante falconeri . the court commends dante falconeri for his diligence and his unswerving commitment to the rule of law . unlike other principles in this case , he has conducted himself with honor and respect for the office he upholds . michael corinthos iii , you are hereby remanded into custody to await sentencing for the crime of manslaughter . said sentencing to take place on friday , the seventh of may . diane : your honor , at this time -- judge carroll : i have n't finished , ms. miller . since the defendant is a demonstrated flight risk , no petition for bail will be heard . guard , restrain the prisoner . take him out . dante : please , your honor , if i may , the prisoner is my brother . i respectfully request that i be allowed to handle the procedure . judge carroll : i could cite conflict of interest , but given your exemplary behavior thus far , i wo n't . detective falconeri , you may take the prisoner into custody . and i am instructing you at this time , formally , to place him under arrest so that , for once , we can follow the letter of the law . you can step down off the stand , son . dante : michael corinthos iii , you are under arrest . anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law . you understand these rights , as i have explained them to you ? michael : yes . dante : let 's go . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] judge carroll : mr. corinthos , in the light of your son 's confession , all charges against you in regard to the death of your wife , claudia zacchara corinthos , are withdrawn . you are a free man , for the time being . now , before i adjourn , i would like to take this opportunity to reprimand counsel for defense and prosecution , various and sundry witnesses , and anyone else who conspired to conceal the truth and waste the people 's time , money , and patience . mr. corinthos , mrs. jacks , you have perjured yourselves and may be so charged . ms. miller , ms. walsh , you have suborned perjury and may be so charged . ms. walsh , you may be further charged with malicious prosecution if there is any evidence that you knew the defendant was innocent and decided to pursue this case , hoping for a high profile conviction for the purpose of your own career advancement . this country is founded on the principle of the rule of law . and good men and women have fought and died , and continue to fight and die , to secure that principle , and you spit all over it . you should all be grateful for this same rule of law , because if it was up to me , i would send the lot of you to prison for the next 20 years . you disgust me . now , get the hell out of my courtroom . we are adjourned . diane : well , that 's a first for me -- going from defense counsel to defendant in one fell swoop . claire : yeah . i 'll save a bunk in the cell for you .

[ scene_break ] [ carly exhales ] jax : hey . what 's your best and worst case scenario for michael ? claire : well , if you can predict what judge carroll will do , you 're way ahead of me . jax : well , it was clear from michael 's testimony that he acted in the moment . there was no premeditation . so that 's got to count for something , right ? claire : jax , i think the rest of us are in a lot more trouble than michael is . we made a mockery of the judicial system , and judge carroll 's going to make sure we pay . jax : could you stop thinking about yourself for just one moment ? i am trying to figure out if there 's any way i can help michael . claire : i already told you , it 's in the judge 's hands . and unfortunately , we do n't have enough evidence to support self - defense . and carly 's lied so many times anyway , the judge is not going to believe a word she says . but on a positive note , michael was a minor when he killed claudia , and his records show brain damage . jax : okay . so what 's your best guess on sentencing ? claire : i imagine michael will get a suspended sentence and mandatory counseling . but your wife may not be so fortunate . [ scene_break ] sonny : i can feel your mind working . you 're trying to think of a way to help michael . but you know what ? our son is stronger than we think . he 's going to be okay . carly : our son 's going to be okay ? you know what i saw ? i saw my son being handcuffed by your bastard , sonny .

[ scene_break ] sonny : what do you want me to say ? i read dante wrong . i thought he wanted me in prison more than he wanted to go by the letter of the law . carly : i do n't care what you thought , sonny . i do n't care . i only care that michael is in police custody waiting to be sentenced . sonny : and that 's what we have to focus on . carly : jason and i will focus on it . you had your chance when you decided to trust dante . sonny : okay . hold on here . dante never planned on michael being in lock - up . carly : are you kidding me ? he gave up michael . he performed the arrest in front of the judge , who gave him a nice pat on the back . everything turned out exactly the way dante wanted it to . sonny : i do n't believe that . carly : okay . that 's great . you know what you need to do ? you need to take dante out for a beer , and you guys can bond , because that 's really all you wanted , and to hell with michael , right ? sonny : how could you say that to me ? i spent this whole trial for michael . carly : and because of your beloved dante , it was all for nothing . he betrayed michael . when are you going to get that ?

[ jason sighs ] spinelli : dante is a policeman , obviously . but you would be facing the most severe penalty , namely life in prison , should this murder be tied to you . now , of equal importance , and perhaps even more importance , is that dante is mr. sir 's firstborn son . he 'll never forgive you for killing him . and the loss of dante would also have a grave impact on his new siblings -- kristina , morgan , even young michael , who might blame himself for yet another death . and finally , have n't we learned by now that violence in the wake of violence only serves to perpetuate that tragic cycle ? please , i beg of you , do not do this . do n't kill dante . and if the plan is already put in motion , stop it before it 's too late .

<s>[INST] judge carroll : michael , do you understand the question that was put to you ? michael : yes . judge carroll : medical evidence has been presented that you suffered brain damage . i want to be absolutely certain you understand what you were asked and are in full possession of your faculties when you replied . to that end , i want you to repeat my question back to me . michael : you asked me if i killed my stepmother , claudia zacchara corinthos . judge carroll : and did you ? young man , are you incapable of answering , or are you refusing to answer ? michael : no . judge carroll : no what ? `` no , `` you did not kill your stepmother ? michael : no , i 'm not refusing to answer your question . judge carroll : well , you 're certainly taking your time about it . michael : sorry . judge carroll : young man , the court is well aware you 've been intimidated and pressured and lied to and lied about and generally coerced into a cover - up of the events that took place surrounding the death of claudia zacchara corinthos on november 4 , 2009 . however , you are now in a court of law . you have been asked a direct question by the court . declining to reply is not an option . you will be held in contempt and subject to criminal prosecution . do you understand ? michael : yes , your honor . ahem . judge carroll : now , detective falconeri has given testimony and presented evidence that you killed claudia corinthos on the night of november 4 . did you , in fact , do so ? michael : yes , your honor . judge carroll : i 'm going to need to hear you say the words , son . michael : on the night of november 4 , i killed my stepmother , claudia zacchara corinthos . judge carroll : michael corinthos iii , will you tell the court , in your own words , how you came to take the life of claudia zacchara corinthos on the night of november 4 of last year ? michael : where do you want me to start ? judge carroll : the same place i expect you to end -- by telling the truth . michael : i mean , do you want me to start at claudia 's party , or when i drove away from the house ? judge carroll : well , do you feel that any of that is relevant to your actions in the cabin ? michael : the party was . claudia lost it completely . she had a gun . my mom was begging jason to shoot her , but he could n't get a shot . she took my mom into the elevator , and my mom could barely stand up straight 'cause the labor just started . and she was so scared . you know , mom -- my mom does n't really get scared , so i knew -- i knew that -- and no one -- no one could find her or claudia . judge carroll : so did you take it upon yourself to look for her ? michael : no . i decided to leave . i convinced myself that everyone would be better off if i was n't around , which is stupid . like everyone did n't have enough to already deal with . so i -- [ exhales ] i drove north going to canada on route 56 , and i saw a wrecked car on the side of the road . i went to go check out the car , and it had a -- a valet ticket to the metro court . and then , i realized it was the car that claudia used to take my mother away . i followed a trail to the woods to the cabin . and as i got closer , i heard my mom screaming . she 's begging for claudia not to take the baby , and that would be josslyn , my baby sister . i ran to the porch . i grabbed something -- the ax handle . and i ran inside , and i saw claudia was standing there with my baby sister in a basket , and she 's trying to leave . my mom was still on the couch screaming . yeah , and i hit her . and she fell , and she died . judge carroll : now , to the best of your recollection , what were you thinking when you picked up the ax handle and came in the door ? michael : that mom needed my help , that claudia was going to hurt my mom and my baby sister , and that i needed to stop her . judge carroll : and when did you realize your stepmother was dead ? michael : right away . i knelt down beside claudia 's body , and there was a lot of blood , you know . and it got on my hands and on my shirt , and later , it got on my dad 's shirt . judge carroll : and at what point did your father , michael sonny corinthos , arrive at the cabin ? michael : my dad was never there . jason and sam showed up . sam took my sister and my mom to the hospital , and jason and me went outside to the road to wait for my dad . judge carroll : and what happened subsequent to your father 's arrival ? michael : he and jason talked for a while . judge carroll : you hear what was said ? michael : no , but i 'm sure they were talking about how to handle all this . they did n't want me to get into trouble . judge carroll : did anyone , at any time -- mother , father , jason morgan , samantha mccall -- suggest notifying the police ? michael : no . judge carroll : and after your father had conferred with mr. morgan , what happened next ? michael : my dad drove me home in my car . judge carroll : well , i want to commend you , michael , for your decision to cooperate with the court , and i wish to thank you for answering clearly and , under the circumstances , remarkably concisely . now , i have just one final question . when you walked through the door to the cabin wielding the ax handle and struck your stepmother , were you trying to kill her ? michael : i did n't care what happened to claudia . i just wanted to protect my mom and my baby sister . judge carroll : all right . michael corinthos jr. , you have confessed to taking the life of claudia corinthos on the night of november 4 , 2009 . and the court finds that you are in full possession of your mental faculties and also finds your confession to be credible and in accord with the evidence and the timeline presented by agents of law enforcement , specifically detective dante falconeri . the court commends dante falconeri for his diligence and his unswerving commitment to the rule of law . unlike other principles in this case , he has conducted himself with honor and respect for the office he upholds . michael corinthos iii , you are hereby remanded into custody to await sentencing for the crime of manslaughter . said sentencing to take place on friday , the seventh of may . diane : your honor , at this time -- judge carroll : i have n't finished , ms. miller . since the defendant is a demonstrated flight risk , no petition for bail will be heard . guard , restrain the prisoner . take him out . dante : please , your honor , if i may , the prisoner is my brother . i respectfully request that i be allowed to handle the procedure . judge carroll : i could cite conflict of interest , but given your exemplary behavior thus far , i wo n't . detective falconeri , you may take the prisoner into custody . and i am instructing you at this time , formally , to place him under arrest so that , for once , we can follow the letter of the law . you can step down off the stand , son . dante : michael corinthos iii , you are under arrest . anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law . you understand these rights , as i have explained them to you ? michael : yes . dante : let 's go . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] judge carroll : mr. corinthos , in the light of your son 's confession , all charges against you in regard to the death of your wife , claudia zacchara corinthos , are withdrawn . you are a free man , for the time being . now , before i adjourn , i would like to take this opportunity to reprimand counsel for defense and prosecution , various and sundry witnesses , and anyone else who conspired to conceal the truth and waste the people 's time , money , and patience . mr. corinthos , mrs. jacks , you have perjured yourselves and may be so charged . ms. miller , ms. walsh , you have suborned perjury and may be so charged . ms. walsh , you may be further charged with malicious prosecution if there is any evidence that you knew the defendant was innocent and decided to pursue this case , hoping for a high profile conviction for the purpose of your own career advancement . this country is founded on the principle of the rule of law . and good men and women have fought and died , and continue to fight and die , to secure that principle , and you spit all over it . you should all be grateful for this same rule of law , because if it was up to me , i would send the lot of you to prison for the next 20 years . you disgust me . now , get the hell out of my courtroom . we are adjourned . diane : well , that 's a first for me -- going from defense counsel to defendant in one fell swoop . claire : yeah . i 'll save a bunk in the cell for you .

[ scene_break ] [ carly exhales ] jax : hey . what 's your best and worst case scenario for michael ? claire : well , if you can predict what judge carroll will do , you 're way ahead of me . jax : well , it was clear from michael 's testimony that he acted in the moment . there was no premeditation . so that 's got to count for something , right ? claire : jax , i think the rest of us are in a lot more trouble than michael is . we made a mockery of the judicial system , and judge carroll 's going to make sure we pay . jax : could you stop thinking about yourself for just one moment ? i am trying to figure out if there 's any way i can help michael . claire : i already told you , it 's in the judge 's hands . and unfortunately , we do n't have enough evidence to support self - defense . and carly 's lied so many times anyway , the judge is not going to believe a word she says . but on a positive note , michael was a minor when he killed claudia , and his records show brain damage . jax : okay . so what 's your best guess on sentencing ? claire : i imagine michael will get a suspended sentence and mandatory counseling . but your wife may not be so fortunate . [ scene_break ] sonny : i can feel your mind working . you 're trying to think of a way to help michael . but you know what ? our son is stronger than we think . he 's going to be okay . carly : our son 's going to be okay ? you know what i saw ? i saw my son being handcuffed by your bastard , sonny . [ scene_break ] [ footsteps ] dante : you 'll be asked for your personal belongings , then i 'll get you through photographs , booking , and fingerprinting , okay ? michael : yeah . dante : then we 'll get you to a cell . michael : sucks being a flight risk . dante : you know , it 's only till friday . i 'll make sure they do n't put you in with anyone else . michael : so why 'd you turn me in , hmm ? you afraid dad would go free , and no one would pay for killing claudia ? dante : the short version is 'cause the truth had to come out . you did kill someone , whether or not it was an accident . michael : so , you were just doing your job . dante : actually , michael , i was doing it for you , too . your whole life , sonny has taught you that the law does n't mean anything . you can do whatever you want and get away with it , even if people die in the process . that 's not acceptable . michael : i never said it was . dante : i know . it 's 'cause you got a conscience , michael . i mean , that 's why your guilt was eating away at you . you do n't have to live with that hanging over your head . michael : what if the judge ... does n't buy that i accidentally killed claudia , hmm ? what if he sends me to prison ? dante : it 's not going to happen . you 're not going to prison , okay ? you were a minor when you killed claudia , and you have brain damage . you 're going to get a suspended sentence and mandatory therapy , and then , you get a chance at building a better life . [ scene_break ] sonny : what do you want me to say ? i read dante wrong . i thought he wanted me in prison more than he wanted to go by the letter of the law . carly : i do n't care what you thought , sonny . i do n't care . i only care that michael is in police custody waiting to be sentenced . sonny : and that 's what we have to focus on . carly : jason and i will focus on it . you had your chance when you decided to trust dante . sonny : okay . hold on here . dante never planned on michael being in lock - up . carly : are you kidding me ? he gave up michael . he performed the arrest in front of the judge , who gave him a nice pat on the back . everything turned out exactly the way dante wanted it to . sonny : i do n't believe that . carly : okay . that 's great . you know what you need to do ? you need to take dante out for a beer , and you guys can bond , because that 's really all you wanted , and to hell with michael , right ? sonny : how could you say that to me ? i spent this whole trial for michael . carly : and because of your beloved dante , it was all for nothing . he betrayed michael . when are you going to get that ?

[ jason sighs ] spinelli : dante is a policeman , obviously . but you would be facing the most severe penalty , namely life in prison , should this murder be tied to you . now , of equal importance , and perhaps even more importance , is that dante is mr. sir 's firstborn son . he 'll never forgive you for killing him . and the loss of dante would also have a grave impact on his new siblings -- kristina , morgan , even young michael , who might blame himself for yet another death . and finally , have n't we learned by now that violence in the wake of violence only serves to perpetuate that tragic cycle ? please , i beg of you , do not do this . do n't kill dante . and if the plan is already put in motion , stop it before it 's too late .

[ scene_break ] arianna : are you saying that you suspect that i had something to do with sydney 's disappearance ? ej : nicole tells us that a woman takes my daughter , and now we know that my father 's not involved , so i 'm looking at the only lead i have . arianna : oh , my god . you are accusing me of stealing your child ? ej : you 're damn right i am . arianna : you know what ? forget it ! forget that i have no motivation , but you do n't have any proof for this accusation ! ej : why were you in cleveland , huh ? you did n't have to go to cleveland . you had no business in cleveland . why were you in cleveland ? why ? arianna : i went to see brady . ej : oh , i 'm sure you did . maybe the two of you took my child . arianna : [ laughs ] you 're crazy , okay ? that 's unfair ! that is paranoid ! ej : really ? you think so ? it 's not paranoid at all . look at him . he did everything for her . aided and abetted her every single step of the way , and you , you 'd do anything for him . arianna : oh , you know what ? get out of here ! you need to get out of here right now ! ej : not until you tell me the truth ! i want to know exactly what you know about when the -- brady : hey ! back off ... now .

[ scene_break ] brady : what the hell are you doin ' here , dimera ? ej : what do you think i 'm doing ? i 'm trying to find my daughter is what i 'm doing . brady : how does that involve her ? ej : because we found out that my father had nothing to do with taking sydney . brady : i 'm sorry , so process of elimination , you 're gon na blame her now , is that it ? ej : it 's a woman , you understand me ? nicole told us it 's a woman who took sydney , and you had no business being in cleveland . why were you there ? it was very odd that you were there . brady : ej ! ej ! she was there to see me . arianna : okay , you know what ? just stop , okay ? i can defend myself . listen to me , when sami got that phone call and nicole was knocked out , i was at the java cafe with melanie layton . you can talk to her about it . you can check the surveillance cameras if you need to , but i did not know that sydney had disappeared until all of you were in ohio , all right ? and that is the truth . ej : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i just ... i ca n't sleep , i ca n't eat . i 'm just trying to find my little girl , and i 've ... i 've run out of leads . i 'm sorry . should n't have spoken to you like that . arianna : it 's okay . it is . i understand . [ scene_break ] sami : okay , so we know it 's not stefano . maybe it is nicole . you know , maybe you could give her truth serum and we could get her to admit that she did it ! rafe : no . sami , no . honestly , i do n't think that it was nicole . i paid her a visit last night , too , and the woman 's ... she 's a mess . she 's as worried about sydney as we are . sami : you understand that if it 's not nicole and if it 's not stefano then we 're back at square one . rafe : well , she did come up with something , but , uh ... sami : what ? no , just tell me , what ? rafe : the woman who took sydney ... well , she remembers seeing her when she was walking away . she just saw her boots . but , apparently , these boots are very distinctive , so distinctive that they 're actually looking for 'em in high - end stores right now . sami : are you serious ? boots ? that 's what we have to go on ? boots ? rafe : sami , it 's something , okay ? sami : no , it 's not something ! we are running out of time ! god , you know better than anyone that the more time goes by , the less chance we have of finding her . we just have to think . who would want my child ? [ scene_break ] anna : this is your uncle tony . yeah . that 's the best man i ever knew . sydney : [ babbles ] anna : intelligent , charming , and so very loving . yes . but , you know , being a dimera was very hard for him . he suffered with it his whole life , and in the end , it 's what eventually destroyed him . thank god you 'll never have to suffer like that , hmm ?

you decide you 're gon na pick up a bottle and you 're gon na drink and you 're gon na drink more and maybe you wo n't leave this room alive . i 'm not gon na force you to do anything . i 'm just gon na simply remind you that you 're not alone in all this . you see , victor needs you much more than he 'll admit . you 've got children , you 've got grandkids , and they 're all looking up to you , and your job is to help navigate them through life . you are the matriarch . you are the example . now , my guess is that you want this , that you really need this . it 's your choice . sage : okay . we need some more lemons , triple sec , and tomato juice . nick : you are doing a fantastic job of not talking about what 's really on your mind . sage : and check the ice . nick : i know it 's early in the pregnancy and you did n't want to talk to anyone about it , especially your ex . sage : well , like you said , your ex knows . it was only a matter of time . nick : sharon and i are not together right now , but it was complicating , talking to her about it . sage : well , there is no comparison with gabe . nick : there was n't a baby , but you two had a connection . sage : it was a marriage of convenience . i do n't want to worry about what he thinks or how he feels about this . this pregnancy was n't supposed to be able to happen , and ... it feels a little fragile . adam : connor 's an amazing kid . he 's got a dream life , and it 's all because of you . chelsea : oh , i do n't -- the dream part of the equation is all thanks to connor . i mean , i do my best , but i 'm no tiger mom . adam : that 's a good thing that you 're not programming the kid for success . chelsea : i do n't know . i see all these mothers in the park , you know , with their flash cards , teaching their babies mandarin between breastfeeding sessions , and i 'm just happy i can get his pants on right . adam : `` happy `` being the operative word , yes . that kid 's life is full of joy and wonder . he 'll have plenty of time to be the victim of expectations soon enough , right ? newman curse ? chelsea : newman curse ? adam : yeah . chelsea : that 's what adam called it . adam : yeah , you mentioned that to me before . plus , i 've seen victor in action , and , i tell you , connor 's lucky to have you . you 're too strong to be controlled by victor , too smart to be manipulated . and that 's why he 's lucky to have you as a mom . chelsea : i wonder if sage knows what she 's in for . it took me a long time to have a good relationship with the man , but the reality of the situation is he is going to be the grandfather of that child . jack : i 've been kind of busy , victor , following your orders , doing your bidding all around town . i did n't have time to stalk and kill these two kids . victor : on the contrary . you 've been conspicuously absent from your job . jack : to spend time with my son , which you wanted . victor : you know that 's b.s . you 've been off doing who knows what ? jack : okay . look , i have done some improvising -- maybe too much -- but it was n't gon na fly , me just imitating jack abbott . there were bound to be inconsistencies . i was covering those inconsistencies with my actions . i did not kill those kids . victor : your dna just kind of showed up ? jack : if i had to guess , i would say that you probably gave the police my dna to keep me in line . that was n't necessary . i 've already taken steps . victor : what kind of steps ? jack : the abbotts -- i have assured them that i am totally focused on the family company . no more kicking back , no more midday golf breaks . i 'm committed . i have convinced them that my inconsistencies are based on my near- death experience in the underground . victor : you want me to just accept this ? jack : look , you 've built exit ramps for yourself all through this process . i want this to work . i 've come through for you . i came straight to you with the gabriel bingham thing , and i am still in a perfect position to find out who he really is . victor : you 're good . you 're really good , are n't you ? do you think you 're pulling the wool over my eyes ? from now on , bandido , you 're gon na act like jack abbott and you 're gon na get your ass into this office every day and you devote your time to business . you got it ? and you become assertive , the way jack abbott does . jack : i am well aware of what 's at stake -- for both of us . victor : from now on -- last warning i give you -- you do exactly as i tell you . no games , no improvisation . is that clear ? jack : you have more than my word . you will have my actions . chelsea : i may have potential as a mom , but as a fashion designer , not so much -- at least according to victoria . adam : yeah , well , you know , victoria is upset that her father promoted me -- gave me the same title as her . you got caught in the middle of that whole thing . her shooting down your idea for a children 's clothing line -- that was -- that was a message she was sending to me . chelsea : a message that you have lousy taste in fashion ? adam : it 's got to get you on some level , right ? chelsea : i 'll live . you really think you know me well , do n't you ? adam : well , i 've learned something about artists ' artistic temperament , and i definitely have an eye for real talent . chelsea : just your unbiased opinion . adam : victoria 's angry . it 's not about you . chelsea : ugh . i should n't let it get to me so much . it 's just , you know , when you care about your work and you put your heart into it , when you believe in it ... adam : yeah . let me ask you a question . do you , um -- do you believe in it any less after how she reacted ? chelsea : no . adam : why do n't you take it to jack ? chelsea : go over victoria 's head ? adam : i think it 's worth fighting for . chelsea : that 's actually not a bad idea . maybe i will . thank you . adam : thank you for what ? chelsea : i mean , you just said what i needed to hear . it 's like you knew exactly what to say . adam : huh . chelsea : you have no idea how much that means . summer : i mean , if we had gone to the police in the beginning , then they may have caught the killer by now . and who knows ? courtney may still be with us . kyle : no , you do n't know that . summer : it was because of me that we decided to cover up austin 's murder in the first place . mariah : as tempting as it is to let you blame yourself , princess -- kyle : could you just lose the chip on your shoulder for one second ? mariah : her life is in danger , and you 're upset with me because i do n't want to join the pity party ? or -- i 'm sorry -- is this your version of foreplay , kyle ? kyle : you have serious issues . you know that ? mariah : i am not playing along with summer 's attempts to gain sympathy when real danger is out there . it might not be scarface who 's out to get us , but somebody murdered two of our friends , and i 'm gon na focus on that . kevin : whoa . look , something about this just does n't add up . dna gets run through codis , then cross - referenced through the fbi database . the lab looks for genetic markers and unique patterns . mariah : nothing of what you 're saying is making sense . kevin : something does n't come up as a match unless it 's an actual match . summer : so , you 're saying someone might have changed it ? paul : so , the fbi takes over the case , and , suddenly , we do n't have a hit . i do n't understand it . i was gon na mention something , but i did n't want to do it in front of kevin and all his little buddies . christine : as the da , i am asking you to put that on hold . paul : why ? christine : so i can wish my husband happy birthday . come here . [ chuckles ] i have to say , i did n't know whether i should make plans or not , with the turn in the case , so ... paul : no , it 's better that you did n't , i guess , everything considered . a lot different from last year , huh ? you made such wonderful plans -- champagne and a room at the club . christine : and we both blew out that candle together ... and made the same wish that i 'd be pregnant . paul : i know . nikki : i should n't have said what i said to you about the accident -- christine , the baby . i 'm sorry . neil : it 's okay . it was my fault . if i had n't been drinking , i would n't have caused that accident . that 's the reality . nikki : i had no right throwing it in your face . neil : it was the booze talking . nikki : i am serious about my recovery . neil : i know what it means to take this next step . [ knock on door ] nikki : who could that be ? oh . victor : i do n't like the way we left things . what 's going on here ? neil : all right , victor , look -- this is n't what it looks like . i heard that nikki was staying here . i came by to see her . i just wanted to discuss things with her , and i had my concerns . victor : you would do well to focus ... on the job i hired you for . do n't you worry about my personal life . neil : we 've been friends a long time now , and nikki does n't stop being my friend just because i 'm working with you . you remember the court case . come on ! she 's a big advocate . i owe her . victor : and this is how you return the favor -- by having all this booze around ? nikki : oh , victor , do n't . victor : commiserating over the minibar ? nikki : stop it . victor : are you determined to drag her down to the gutter with you ? i guess misery likes company . neil : no . that 's not what this is about . victor : neil , i would like you to leave now , okay ? nikki : it 's okay . thanks again . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] nikki : okay . go ahead and tell me . tell me how weak i am . tell me how much i 'm gon na embarrass the family . victor : why do you let him drag you down like this ? nikki : this is not neil 's fault ! this is your fault ! victor : my fault ? nikki : yes ! i drank this because of the lie you made me tell ! and i drank this one to try to drown the guilt ! let 's see . this one -- i took this one -- i drank it to try to kill the pain ... that you always cause , the way you treat our kids ! you manipulate them ! you control them ! the way you rejected my son and you tried to ruin him ! and all along , i just stood by , and i - i protected you . i made excuses for you . why the hell i did that , i do n't know ! neil was here tonight -- he did n't have one drop of liquor ! he was here to help me , unlike you ! victor : you 're coming home with me . nikki : i am not your lackey . i do n't take orders . victor : you 're coming home with me . you need help . nikki : no . victor : pack your bag . nikki : i told you i 'm not going anywhere . [ knock on door ] jack : come in ! chelsea : hey . i know you 're busy , but could you spare a few minutes ? jack : for our top fashion designer ? chelsea : well , nice to think you think so . jack : something happen while i was away ? chelsea : well , i came up with a new concept for a children 's line . i put together a whole proposal -- research , designs , budget . jack : do you have it with you ? chelsea : yeah . here . i mean , it took months of work before i put my name on it . you know i always only want to give you my best , jack . i have a very strong work ethic . jack : yeah . that 's why we value you . chelsea : well , then i showed it to victoria , and she rejected it . i mean , she barely even looked at it . jack : did she give you a reason ? chelsea : she said she wants to focus on a men 's line . so , that was a tough pill to swallow , but the name on the label says , `` chelsea lawson by jabot , `` so i started making designs for the men 's line . you know me , jack , and i 'm a hard worker and i want to be a team player . jack : but ? chelsea : i mean , i just worry . i do n't think these designs are gon na fare any better with victoria . jack : what exactly are you saying , chelsea ? kevin : dna tests are almost always conclusive . there 's no such thing as a false positive on these tests . summer : but someone could falsify the results . kevin : exactly . kyle : the point is , though , that these test results can only be changed deliberately , after the fact . summer : well , who would do that ? not paul . kyle : i mean , he had legitimate motive . austin shot him , right ? mariah : no , paul does n't seem like the type of police chief to be consumed by revenge . summer : plus he really liked courtney . kyle : maybe he did it for a price . i do n't know . kevin : no . no . not a chance . but ... he may have misled us and told us the dna did n't match . summer : well , why would he lie to us ? kyle : yeah . kevin : if he found some new evidence on the killer ... mariah : he wanted us to stay out of it so we were n't running around town , talking about the big , bad drug lord ... kevin : thus tipping off the big , bad drug lord . paul is trying to protect us . kyle : [ sighs ] or the fbi lied to him , too . summer : yeah , but how can we be sure ? kevin : there 's a way . sage : i was shocked at how well you took the news when i told you i was pregnant . nick : this baby ... our baby ... is a miracle . sage : not everybody 's gon na feel that way . i know you think that faith is gon na love the idea of being a big sister . nick : she will ... eventually . sage : what about the other newmans when they find out you knocked up a girl you hardly know ? nick : in my family , this does n't even come close to qualifying as a scandal . i mean , honestly , it 's not in the top like 58ish . sage : i 'm serious . your dad , your mom , victoria -- what are they gon na do ? nick : look , if anyone in my family gives you any grief , if they even look at you funny , you know what i 'm gon na do ? i 'm gon na step in and look right back at them funny ... funny ... funnier . sage : [ laughs ] nick : look , we 're happy , and we 're in this together , and that 's really all that matters , right ? who cares what anyone else in my family thinks about this ? christine : i 'm sorry . paul : we lost a child . there 's no time table on grief . we 're doing the best we can . one day at a time . christine : right . okay . so , listen , i do -- i do kind of have a surprise . i was looking for some flights online , trying to figure out how this place could run itself without us for a few days , 'cause we just -- we need to get away , just the two of us . paul : okay . we can do that . just -- i just ca n't do it now . christine : i know . i know . when the time 's right . paul : i really have to go to washington and verify the fbi 's story that there is no match with this marco annicelli . you know , i 'm gon na call in a few favors . i think they owe me that . christine : okay . have you reached out to ronan ? paul : well , i 've called to his office at homeland security , so ... christine : yeah , and i 'm gon na try a few of my contacts at the d.o.j . maybe they 'll figure out where this information originated . at least it 's a start . paul : you know , i 've got a better idea . why do n't you clear your calendar , just like you planned , and , uh ... come with me ? christine : [ chuckles ] paul : i know it 's not the trip that you had in mind , but -- christine : you can count me in . [ both chuckle ] paul : okay . mariah : if they catch you hacking the fbi 's database , looking for dna results , your life is over . kyle : yeah , and anybody who had a conversation about it with you . kevin : what conversation ? i did n't say anything . kyle : you did n't have to , buddy . mariah : kevin , for god 's sakes ! they 'll prosecute you as a terrorist threat ! kevin : you think i do n't know what i would be risking ? look , i am not crazy , and i 'm not stupid . but i do have to get back to work . this conversation did n't even happen . chelsea : victoria was being petty because of billy , punishing me because i hurt him . i mean , that 's why she rejected my idea . jack : that 's a pretty serious accusation , chelsea . chelsea : well , i think you should know how your company is being run , why decisions are being made -- because of vendettas and personal animosity . jack : a lot of things go on behind that desk that you do n't understand . chelsea : i just want my work to be judged by its merit . jack : okay . here 's what i propose -- we double your budget , give a green light to the children 's line and the men 's line . what do you think ? chelsea : i think if you 're being serious , i might kiss you . jack : well , let 's see how you feel in a few months . chelsea : oh , my god ! jack , i do n't know what to say ! jack : well , you do n't have to say anything . trust your instincts and run with it . chelsea : so , i mean , what about victoria ? you 're gon na have to run this by her , right ? jack : do n't worry about victoria . you go be brilliant . i 'll worry about victoria , and i 'll take care of victor , too . victor : i think this should tell you how far -- nikki : how far gone i am ? victor : you need help , my baby , okay ? i 'll have someone pick up your things later . nikki : did you not hear a word i said ? victor : i 've heard everything you 've said . is this how you want to live ? nikki : i do n't want to ... submit anymore . and i do n't want to keep my mouth shut while you ... do whatever you want . and i do n't want to give my soul away piece by piece by piece . so ... no , i do n't want to live life this way . victor : what has happened to us ? [ sighs ] i 'm killing your soul piece by piece ? i have provided you with the biggest luxury any man can provide a woman with . nikki : that 's not the point . victor : you have a ranch . you have children . you have grandchildren . nikki : that 's not the point ! that 's not the point ! victor : you have cars -- [ sighs ] nikki : just please go . [ crying ] please go . [ sobbing ] sage : okay . no slacking , newman . i expect you to be a good provider for our kid , all right ? this place ai n't gon na run itself . nick : you call me controlling ? sage : just do n't forget the lemons . adam : that was quite a bomb you dropped earlier , sage . sage : we were just as surprised . and we 're both really , really happy about this baby . adam : how happy do you think he 's gon na be if he finds out he 's not the father ? mariah : so much for leaving it to law enforcement . kevin : if we can find out who the real killer is , is n't it worth the risk ? mariah : no , kevin , it 's not . and it 's not up to you . you 're putting all of our lives in danger . chelsea : this is an amazing opportunity . jack : you earned it . chelsea : well , it 's good to hear you like this -- more like yourself . jack : well , it took a little while , but , yeah , i 'm back . and i am reconsidering the direction of this merger . and i would n't say that to someone i could n't trust ... that i could n't count on . chelsea : of course . neil : i assume you 're here to fire me . victor : [ sighs ] nikki told me why you were there . i appreciate it , okay ? she needs help . neil : yes , she does . victor : man , oh , man . i had half a mind to drag her out of there kicking and screaming . neil : mnh . you ca n't force someone to get clean . neil : none of that matters , does it ? victor : it does n't , does it ? the woman i love ... is falling victim to the bottle . nothing i can do . neil : you realize it 's totally out of your control , right ? acknowledging that is the first step . nikki : i 'll take this ... and this . [ sobbing ] oh , god . sage : this baby 's nick 's . adam : how can you be so sure ? sage : we had sex once . adam : we had sex o -- i 'm pretty sure once is all it takes , sage . i want a paternity test . sage : it has been your goal this whole time to get chelsea back , to be a father to connor , your son . hmm ? what do you think this is gon na do if they find out ? adam : i have a right to know if that 's my child . nick : bingo ! adam : hey ! nick : what brings you by ? adam : you know , i , um ... had a question for sage , and i did n't get a chance to ask her , with all the , uh -- the baby stuff earlier . but mission accomplished , so ... mission accomplished . congratulations again . nick : thanks . what was that about ? sage : nothing . just something came up about constance 's estate . nick : it obviously ... upset you . sage : no . i -- there are so many other things that i want to deal with right now , aside from gabe . nick : well , i 'll do anything i can to help . we 're in this together , remember ? [ next_on ] ashley : this used to be a family business ! when did you stop caring about our family ? ! phyllis : quit using avery . avery : phyllis , you need to go . it was a mistake for you to come here . billy : no , jackass . what i 'm saying is i do n't hate chelsea . adam : so , you 've forgiven her for sleeping with me ?
when nick and sage tell gabe and chelsea that she is pregnant , adam suspects that he could be the father and demands a paternity test even though sage tells him that nick is the father of her child . gabe suggests that chelsea talk to jack about doubling the budget for the fashion line and tell him that victoria said no , because she is mad that she cheated on billy with him . paul tells the cabin group that further dna testing by the fbi reveals that marco , the mexican mob boss , is n't the killer . kevin suspects the fbi lied to paul and plans to hack into the fbi computer and find out the truth .
<s>[INST] christine : you ca n't take that personally . paul : `` police incompetence `` ? i am the police . how can i not take it personally ? christine : your investigation has some obstacles . all investigations have obstacles . huh . in fact , there are a few of your obstacles right now . paul : those kids have been obstructing this case every step of the way , and this is where it 's gon na end . let 's -- get in here , please . summer : you wanted to talk to us ? kyle : is there any news ? paul : just stop talking and listen . this has gone on far too long . i am in charge of this investigation , and you are not . i will tell you exactly what you need to know and when you need to know it , so i need you to shut up and listen to me . and if any one of you have a problem with that , i will be more than happy to escort you down the hall and put you in a holding cell . have i made myself clear ? ! victor : it was you , was n't it ? you murdered those two people , did n't you ? jack : you ca n't be serious . victor : the dna of a former drug lord was linked to both crimes . jack : two rich kids i never set eyes on -- what possible reason could i have for killing them ? victor : austin travers was making a documentary exposing the newmans and the abbotts . he stumbled upon something . the killer wanted to get ahold of the computer . jack : well , it sounds like if anyone has a motive ... it 's you . nikki : [ slurring ] no , no , no , no -- no more coffee . done with coffee . neil : i guess you could always pick up a real drink , right ? what 's that gon na get you ? nikki : you know , neil , i played the very dutiful wife for all these years ... and i 'm done . i can not do it anymore . neil : victor -- he put you in this bad situation . i know that , all right ? he pressured you into witnessing a merger contract that jack never signed . it was very manipulative . it was very unfair . what i 'm saying is that you drank because you wanted to drink and the merger contract was just an excuse to drink . nikki : do n't you understand that i do n't want to be that person ? neil : i do n't want to be an alcoholic , either , but i am . nikki , i have a choi -- you have a choice . nikki : well , thank you . thank you for ... helping me get it together before ... it went further . neil : okay . enough is enough , and too much is foolish . this is crap here . your life is totally spinning out of control , and it 's going from bad to worse . you know what you need to do , nikki . chelsea : wow . that 's so great . and you 're right - it really is a miracle , after being told it could n't happen -- getting pregnant . it must be overwhelming . sage : yeah , it is overwhelming , but in a good way . lots of planning and nesting . nick : yeah . we 're checking out new homes for sage . chelsea : just you ? nick : yeah . she 's gon na live alone , but we 're gon na raise the baby together . this child will have whatever he or she needs , which is both parents . sage : well , we have a lot to do , so ... adam : before you guys go , there 's something i , uh , have to ask -- something i need to know . paul : further testing by the fbi shows that there 's no dna match with the former drug kingpin . now , i had my suspicions . i could n't understand why someone on the fbi 's most wanted list would have any interest at all in austin and courtney . kyle : who sent the envelope to fen ? summer : yeah . who blackmailed him into drugging us ? paul : we have no new leads . i 'm working very closely with the fbi agent who 's heading the case . mariah : t blind leading the clueless . kevin : mariah . christine : i think you all need to get a clue . mariah : what ? ! there 's a killer out there , and we know nothing ! paul : you covered up a murder . you ignored my instructions . you did everything you possibly could to hinder this investigation . and you have the audacity to ask me why we do n't have a suspect in custody ? ! victor : i would n't murder someone over a petty exposé . that 's absurd . jack : oh , i 'm sure you have plenty of people to do your dirty work for you . victor : austin travers ... was married to my granddaughter , and my grandson was just about to marry that pretty blond officer that worked for paul williams when she was killed , so this is personal . now , i 'm not a killer . but when it comes to protecting my family , there are no limits . jack : that sounds remarkably like an admission . victor : it should sound to you like a warning . jack : if the truth got out about what you did to the real jack abbott ... victor : it 's a secret that you 're eager to protect , are n't you ? jack : you 'd be the one rotting behind bars . victor : i know about your history . i know about your proclivity for violence . i know the extent you would go to to change your identity . jack : your idea , remember ? victor : listen , amigo -- it must have been an enormous relief to finally be off the list of the 10 most wanted by the fbi . now that they have dna , your dna , you 'll jump right back to the top of that list . neil : you ca n't keep doing this . you need to go to rehab . nikki : no , no , no . i am not doing that to my family . neil : your family is gon na understand where this is coming from . your family will support you . they 'll be grateful that you took this leap of faith . nikki : oh , yeah , right , until they 're accosted by those tabloid vultures . neil : you 're very worried about everyone else 's feelings instead of being worried about you . the only thing you 're worried about is where that next drink is coming from . nikki : oh , stop it ! you 're projecting . i had a slip . neil : and you 're in the middle of a slip . it 's potentially a long and dangerous one . nikki : you know , you do n't get it ! you do n't get that this affects more than just me ! i have my kids . victoria and nicholas -- they have just started to pull their lives together , and summer and noah , my god -- the losses that they have suffered . the last thing they need is to deal with more chaos . neil : all right . well , then , we 'll come up with a reason for you , what , to go away for 30 days . it does n't matter what it is . it can be going overseas for charity . it can be tracing your family r -- hey , you could be training for the olympics ! nikki : you are so missing the point here . neil : whatever the excuse , it 's not important . nikki : i have my family to consider ! neil : i will help you . i 'll cover for you at work . i 'll help you in any way i can . nikki : damn it , neil ! i am not going to rehab , so shut the hell up about it ! nick : what is it you 'd like to know ? adam : well , it 's just when chelsea and i came in here , you guys were talking about the baby . i was n't -- i just was n't aware if you guys were going public with this information or not . nick : well , sharon knows . i felt like it was important she knew . and it 's only a matter of time . thanks for asking . adam : yeah . i want to respect your wishes . sage : this is still the beginning for us . we 're still processing the news . chelsea : we will keep it private -- promise . adam : i know there 's been some tension between us recently , and i know that i have n't always handled things with the bingham grace and charm , but now that there 's a baby involved , that 's what 's important -- the well - being , the health of the baby , so ... i guess what i 'm trying to say is congratulations . chelsea : yeah . congratulations . sage : thank you so much . nick : yeah . thanks . uh , we should go . sage : okay . bye . chelsea : bye . adam : bye . chelsea : ooh ! well ... i 'm sure that must have been kind of hard on you , considering you wanted kids of your own . adam : sage and i were never in love . a kid deserves two parents ... chelsea : yeah . adam : ... a stable home . chelsea : that 's definitely the ideal situation . that 's what i wanted for my son , but sometimes life does n't work out that way . not every kid gets the dream life . adam : well , for connor , that dream 's alive and well . nikki : what really matters here is that i am serious about my recovery . walk the walk . neil : i could n't agree more . nikki : i do n't need rehab to do that . i mean , i certainly do n't need that public ridicule and [ sighs ] that indignity . neil : yeah , i like that word , `` indignation . `` if you do n't get help , how are you gon na feel when you wake up in the morning after a blackout and you do n't remember a damn thing ? you got your family and friends everywhere , and all they can do is tell you about your ugly behavior the night before . these are the people that you claim you want to protect . nikki : i will get a sponsor , and i will work the program . neil : sure , you will , and you 're gon na sneak off to the occasional meeting . what 's that gon na get you ? nikki : you know , you ca n't force me to do this any more than i could force you to do it . we all know where that ended up . you were drunk , you grabbed my steering wheel , and we hit christine and she lost her unborn child . that happened because of you . neil : ohh . this is the part of the story where , after talking to you for a long , long time , i get pissed off and i decide that i 'm gon na leave , and what do you decide ? you decide you 're gon na pick up a bottle and you 're gon na drink and you 're gon na drink more and maybe you wo n't leave this room alive . i 'm not gon na force you to do anything . i 'm just gon na simply remind you that you 're not alone in all this . you see , victor needs you much more than he 'll admit . you 've got children , you 've got grandkids , and they 're all looking up to you , and your job is to help navigate them through life . you are the matriarch . you are the example . now , my guess is that you want this , that you really need this . it 's your choice . sage : okay . we need some more lemons , triple sec , and tomato juice . nick : you are doing a fantastic job of not talking about what 's really on your mind . sage : and check the ice . nick : i know it 's early in the pregnancy and you did n't want to talk to anyone about it , especially your ex . sage : well , like you said , your ex knows . it was only a matter of time . nick : sharon and i are not together right now , but it was complicating , talking to her about it . sage : well , there is no comparison with gabe . nick : there was n't a baby , but you two had a connection . sage : it was a marriage of convenience . i do n't want to worry about what he thinks or how he feels about this . this pregnancy was n't supposed to be able to happen , and ... it feels a little fragile . adam : connor 's an amazing kid . he 's got a dream life , and it 's all because of you . chelsea : oh , i do n't -- the dream part of the equation is all thanks to connor . i mean , i do my best , but i 'm no tiger mom . adam : that 's a good thing that you 're not programming the kid for success . chelsea : i do n't know . i see all these mothers in the park , you know , with their flash cards , teaching their babies mandarin between breastfeeding sessions , and i 'm just happy i can get his pants on right . adam : `` happy `` being the operative word , yes . that kid 's life is full of joy and wonder . he 'll have plenty of time to be the victim of expectations soon enough , right ? newman curse ? chelsea : newman curse ? adam : yeah . chelsea : that 's what adam called it . adam : yeah , you mentioned that to me before . plus , i 've seen victor in action , and , i tell you , connor 's lucky to have you . you 're too strong to be controlled by victor , too smart to be manipulated . and that 's why he 's lucky to have you as a mom . chelsea : i wonder if sage knows what she 's in for . it took me a long time to have a good relationship with the man , but the reality of the situation is he is going to be the grandfather of that child . jack : i 've been kind of busy , victor , following your orders , doing your bidding all around town . i did n't have time to stalk and kill these two kids . victor : on the contrary . you 've been conspicuously absent from your job . jack : to spend time with my son , which you wanted . victor : you know that 's b.s . you 've been off doing who knows what ? jack : okay . look , i have done some improvising -- maybe too much -- but it was n't gon na fly , me just imitating jack abbott . there were bound to be inconsistencies . i was covering those inconsistencies with my actions . i did not kill those kids . victor : your dna just kind of showed up ? jack : if i had to guess , i would say that you probably gave the police my dna to keep me in line . that was n't necessary . i 've already taken steps . victor : what kind of steps ? jack : the abbotts -- i have assured them that i am totally focused on the family company . no more kicking back , no more midday golf breaks . i 'm committed . i have convinced them that my inconsistencies are based on my near- death experience in the underground . victor : you want me to just accept this ? jack : look , you 've built exit ramps for yourself all through this process . i want this to work . i 've come through for you . i came straight to you with the gabriel bingham thing , and i am still in a perfect position to find out who he really is . victor : you 're good . you 're really good , are n't you ? do you think you 're pulling the wool over my eyes ? from now on , bandido , you 're gon na act like jack abbott and you 're gon na get your ass into this office every day and you devote your time to business . you got it ? and you become assertive , the way jack abbott does . jack : i am well aware of what 's at stake -- for both of us . victor : from now on -- last warning i give you -- you do exactly as i tell you . no games , no improvisation . is that clear ? jack : you have more than my word . you will have my actions . chelsea : i may have potential as a mom , but as a fashion designer , not so much -- at least according to victoria . adam : yeah , well , you know , victoria is upset that her father promoted me -- gave me the same title as her . you got caught in the middle of that whole thing . her shooting down your idea for a children 's clothing line -- that was -- that was a message she was sending to me . chelsea : a message that you have lousy taste in fashion ? adam : it 's got to get you on some level , right ? chelsea : i 'll live . you really think you know me well , do n't you ? adam : well , i 've learned something about artists ' artistic temperament , and i definitely have an eye for real talent . chelsea : just your unbiased opinion . adam : victoria 's angry . it 's not about you . chelsea : ugh . i should n't let it get to me so much . it 's just , you know , when you care about your work and you put your heart into it , when you believe in it ... adam : yeah . let me ask you a question . do you , um -- do you believe in it any less after how she reacted ? chelsea : no . adam : why do n't you take it to jack ? chelsea : go over victoria 's head ? adam : i think it 's worth fighting for . chelsea : that 's actually not a bad idea . maybe i will . thank you . adam : thank you for what ? chelsea : i mean , you just said what i needed to hear . it 's like you knew exactly what to say . adam : huh . chelsea : you have no idea how much that means . summer : i mean , if we had gone to the police in the beginning , then they may have caught the killer by now . and who knows ? courtney may still be with us . kyle : no , you do n't know that . summer : it was because of me that we decided to cover up austin 's murder in the first place . mariah : as tempting as it is to let you blame yourself , princess -- kyle : could you just lose the chip on your shoulder for one second ? mariah : her life is in danger , and you 're upset with me because i do n't want to join the pity party ? or -- i 'm sorry -- is this your version of foreplay , kyle ? kyle : you have serious issues . you know that ? mariah : i am not playing along with summer 's attempts to gain sympathy when real danger is out there . it might not be scarface who 's out to get us , but somebody murdered two of our friends , and i 'm gon na focus on that . kevin : whoa . look , something about this just does n't add up . dna gets run through codis , then cross - referenced through the fbi database . the lab looks for genetic markers and unique patterns . mariah : nothing of what you 're saying is making sense . kevin : something does n't come up as a match unless it 's an actual match . summer : so , you 're saying someone might have changed it ? paul : so , the fbi takes over the case , and , suddenly , we do n't have a hit . i do n't understand it . i was gon na mention something , but i did n't want to do it in front of kevin and all his little buddies . christine : as the da , i am asking you to put that on hold . paul : why ? christine : so i can wish my husband happy birthday . come here . [ chuckles ] i have to say , i did n't know whether i should make plans or not , with the turn in the case , so ... paul : no , it 's better that you did n't , i guess , everything considered . a lot different from last year , huh ? you made such wonderful plans -- champagne and a room at the club . christine : and we both blew out that candle together ... and made the same wish that i 'd be pregnant . paul : i know . nikki : i should n't have said what i said to you about the accident -- christine , the baby . i 'm sorry . neil : it 's okay . it was my fault . if i had n't been drinking , i would n't have caused that accident . that 's the reality . nikki : i had no right throwing it in your face . neil : it was the booze talking . nikki : i am serious about my recovery . neil : i know what it means to take this next step . [ knock on door ] nikki : who could that be ? oh . victor : i do n't like the way we left things . what 's going on here ? neil : all right , victor , look -- this is n't what it looks like . i heard that nikki was staying here . i came by to see her . i just wanted to discuss things with her , and i had my concerns . victor : you would do well to focus ... on the job i hired you for . do n't you worry about my personal life . neil : we 've been friends a long time now , and nikki does n't stop being my friend just because i 'm working with you . you remember the court case . come on ! she 's a big advocate . i owe her . victor : and this is how you return the favor -- by having all this booze around ? nikki : oh , victor , do n't . victor : commiserating over the minibar ? nikki : stop it . victor : are you determined to drag her down to the gutter with you ? i guess misery likes company . neil : no . that 's not what this is about . victor : neil , i would like you to leave now , okay ? nikki : it 's okay . thanks again . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] nikki : okay . go ahead and tell me . tell me how weak i am . tell me how much i 'm gon na embarrass the family . victor : why do you let him drag you down like this ? nikki : this is not neil 's fault ! this is your fault ! victor : my fault ? nikki : yes ! i drank this because of the lie you made me tell ! and i drank this one to try to drown the guilt ! let 's see . this one -- i took this one -- i drank it to try to kill the pain ... that you always cause , the way you treat our kids ! you manipulate them ! you control them ! the way you rejected my son and you tried to ruin him ! and all along , i just stood by , and i - i protected you . i made excuses for you . why the hell i did that , i do n't know ! neil was here tonight -- he did n't have one drop of liquor ! he was here to help me , unlike you ! victor : you 're coming home with me . nikki : i am not your lackey . i do n't take orders . victor : you 're coming home with me . you need help . nikki : no . victor : pack your bag . nikki : i told you i 'm not going anywhere . [ knock on door ] jack : come in ! chelsea : hey . i know you 're busy , but could you spare a few minutes ? jack : for our top fashion designer ? chelsea : well , nice to think you think so . jack : something happen while i was away ? chelsea : well , i came up with a new concept for a children 's line . i put together a whole proposal -- research , designs , budget . jack : do you have it with you ? chelsea : yeah . here . i mean , it took months of work before i put my name on it . you know i always only want to give you my best , jack . i have a very strong work ethic . jack : yeah . that 's why we value you . chelsea : well , then i showed it to victoria , and she rejected it . i mean , she barely even looked at it . jack : did she give you a reason ? chelsea : she said she wants to focus on a men 's line . so , that was a tough pill to swallow , but the name on the label says , `` chelsea lawson by jabot , `` so i started making designs for the men 's line . you know me , jack , and i 'm a hard worker and i want to be a team player . jack : but ? chelsea : i mean , i just worry . i do n't think these designs are gon na fare any better with victoria . jack : what exactly are you saying , chelsea ? kevin : dna tests are almost always conclusive . there 's no such thing as a false positive on these tests . summer : but someone could falsify the results . kevin : exactly . kyle : the point is , though , that these test results can only be changed deliberately , after the fact . summer : well , who would do that ? not paul . kyle : i mean , he had legitimate motive . austin shot him , right ? mariah : no , paul does n't seem like the type of police chief to be consumed by revenge . summer : plus he really liked courtney . kyle : maybe he did it for a price . i do n't know . kevin : no . no . not a chance . but ... he may have misled us and told us the dna did n't match . summer : well , why would he lie to us ? kyle : yeah . kevin : if he found some new evidence on the killer ... mariah : he wanted us to stay out of it so we were n't running around town , talking about the big , bad drug lord ... kevin : thus tipping off the big , bad drug lord . paul is trying to protect us . kyle : [ sighs ] or the fbi lied to him , too . summer : yeah , but how can we be sure ? kevin : there 's a way . sage : i was shocked at how well you took the news when i told you i was pregnant . nick : this baby ... our baby ... is a miracle . sage : not everybody 's gon na feel that way . i know you think that faith is gon na love the idea of being a big sister . nick : she will ... eventually . sage : what about the other newmans when they find out you knocked up a girl you hardly know ? nick : in my family , this does n't even come close to qualifying as a scandal . i mean , honestly , it 's not in the top like 58ish . sage : i 'm serious . your dad , your mom , victoria -- what are they gon na do ? nick : look , if anyone in my family gives you any grief , if they even look at you funny , you know what i 'm gon na do ? i 'm gon na step in and look right back at them funny ... funny ... funnier . sage : [ laughs ] nick : look , we 're happy , and we 're in this together , and that 's really all that matters , right ? who cares what anyone else in my family thinks about this ? christine : i 'm sorry . paul : we lost a child . there 's no time table on grief . we 're doing the best we can . one day at a time . christine : right . okay . so , listen , i do -- i do kind of have a surprise . i was looking for some flights online , trying to figure out how this place could run itself without us for a few days , 'cause we just -- we need to get away , just the two of us . paul : okay . we can do that . just -- i just ca n't do it now . christine : i know . i know . when the time 's right . paul : i really have to go to washington and verify the fbi 's story that there is no match with this marco annicelli . you know , i 'm gon na call in a few favors . i think they owe me that . christine : okay . have you reached out to ronan ? paul : well , i 've called to his office at homeland security , so ... christine : yeah , and i 'm gon na try a few of my contacts at the d.o.j . maybe they 'll figure out where this information originated . at least it 's a start . paul : you know , i 've got a better idea . why do n't you clear your calendar , just like you planned , and , uh ... come with me ? christine : [ chuckles ] paul : i know it 's not the trip that you had in mind , but -- christine : you can count me in . [ both chuckle ] paul : okay . mariah : if they catch you hacking the fbi 's database , looking for dna results , your life is over . kyle : yeah , and anybody who had a conversation about it with you . kevin : what conversation ? i did n't say anything . kyle : you did n't have to , buddy . mariah : kevin , for god 's sakes ! they 'll prosecute you as a terrorist threat ! kevin : you think i do n't know what i would be risking ? look , i am not crazy , and i 'm not stupid . but i do have to get back to work . this conversation did n't even happen . chelsea : victoria was being petty because of billy , punishing me because i hurt him . i mean , that 's why she rejected my idea . jack : that 's a pretty serious accusation , chelsea . chelsea : well , i think you should know how your company is being run , why decisions are being made -- because of vendettas and personal animosity . jack : a lot of things go on behind that desk that you do n't understand . chelsea : i just want my work to be judged by its merit . jack : okay . here 's what i propose -- we double your budget , give a green light to the children 's line and the men 's line . what do you think ? chelsea : i think if you 're being serious , i might kiss you . jack : well , let 's see how you feel in a few months . chelsea : oh , my god ! jack , i do n't know what to say ! jack : well , you do n't have to say anything . trust your instincts and run with it . chelsea : so , i mean , what about victoria ? you 're gon na have to run this by her , right ? jack : do n't worry about victoria . you go be brilliant . i 'll worry about victoria , and i 'll take care of victor , too . victor : i think this should tell you how far -- nikki : how far gone i am ? victor : you need help , my baby , okay ? i 'll have someone pick up your things later . nikki : did you not hear a word i said ? victor : i 've heard everything you 've said . is this how you want to live ? nikki : i do n't want to ... submit anymore . and i do n't want to keep my mouth shut while you ... do whatever you want . and i do n't want to give my soul away piece by piece by piece . so ... no , i do n't want to live life this way . victor : what has happened to us ? [ sighs ] i 'm killing your soul piece by piece ? i have provided you with the biggest luxury any man can provide a woman with . nikki : that 's not the point . victor : you have a ranch . you have children . you have grandchildren . nikki : that 's not the point ! that 's not the point ! victor : you have cars -- [ sighs ] nikki : just please go . [ crying ] please go . [ sobbing ] sage : okay . no slacking , newman . i expect you to be a good provider for our kid , all right ? this place ai n't gon na run itself . nick : you call me controlling ? sage : just do n't forget the lemons . adam : that was quite a bomb you dropped earlier , sage . sage : we were just as surprised . and we 're both really , really happy about this baby . adam : how happy do you think he 's gon na be if he finds out he 's not the father ? mariah : so much for leaving it to law enforcement . kevin : if we can find out who the real killer is , is n't it worth the risk ? mariah : no , kevin , it 's not . and it 's not up to you . you 're putting all of our lives in danger . chelsea : this is an amazing opportunity . jack : you earned it . chelsea : well , it 's good to hear you like this -- more like yourself . jack : well , it took a little while , but , yeah , i 'm back . and i am reconsidering the direction of this merger . and i would n't say that to someone i could n't trust ... that i could n't count on . chelsea : of course . neil : i assume you 're here to fire me . victor : [ sighs ] nikki told me why you were there . i appreciate it , okay ? she needs help . neil : yes , she does . victor : man , oh , man . i had half a mind to drag her out of there kicking and screaming . neil : mnh . you ca n't force someone to get clean . neil : none of that matters , does it ? victor : it does n't , does it ? the woman i love ... is falling victim to the bottle . nothing i can do . neil : you realize it 's totally out of your control , right ? acknowledging that is the first step . nikki : i 'll take this ... and this . [ sobbing ] oh , god . sage : this baby 's nick 's . adam : how can you be so sure ? sage : we had sex once . adam : we had sex o -- i 'm pretty sure once is all it takes , sage . i want a paternity test . sage : it has been your goal this whole time to get chelsea back , to be a father to connor , your son . hmm ? what do you think this is gon na do if they find out ? adam : i have a right to know if that 's my child . nick : bingo ! adam : hey ! nick : what brings you by ? adam : you know , i , um ... had a question for sage , and i did n't get a chance to ask her , with all the , uh -- the baby stuff earlier . but mission accomplished , so ... mission accomplished . congratulations again . nick : thanks . what was that about ? sage : nothing . just something came up about constance 's estate . nick : it obviously ... upset you . sage : no . i -- there are so many other things that i want to deal with right now , aside from gabe . nick : well , i 'll do anything i can to help . we 're in this together , remember ? [ next_on ] ashley : this used to be a family business ! when did you stop caring about our family ? ! phyllis : quit using avery . avery : phyllis , you need to go . it was a mistake for you to come here . billy : no , jackass . what i 'm saying is i do n't hate chelsea . adam : so , you 've forgiven her for sleeping with me ?Summarize.[/INST]when nick and sage tell gabe and chelsea that she is pregnant , adam suspects that he could be the father and demands a paternity test even though sage tells him that nick is the father of her child . gabe suggests that chelsea talk to jack about doubling the budget for the fashion line and tell him that victoria said no , because she is mad that she cheated on billy with him . paul tells the cabin group that further dna testing by the fbi reveals that marco , the mexican mob boss , is n't the killer . kevin suspects the fbi lied to paul and plans to hack into the fbi computer and find out the truth .</s>
