Devon: [ Exhales sharply ]
Lily: This party is a hit. I can feel the excitement in the air.
Devon: Oh, so can I. So can I. All that’s left is to deliver the goods and make this launch official.
Lily: Yeah.
Devon: You ready for this?
Lily: I think is the world ready for chancellor-winters?
Devon: I think so.
Lily: Oh, I know so.
[ Chuckles ] Well, let’s do this.
Devon: Let’s do it.
Lily: [ Chuckles ]
[ Indistinct conversations ]
Jill: Oh! Call me a romantic fool, but you know what I love? I love it when two corporations are able to come together and create an even bigger and more powerful one.
Jack: That’s what counts for romance these days, huh?
Jill: Well, just imagine it, jack. If all business sales were done this way, I mean, with respect, mutual admiration, equality, total transparency —
Jack: I couldn’t think of anything more boring.
Jill: I know. We would not like that.
Jack: We liked the fight.
Jill: We liked to knock our foes to the ground.
Jack: We had fun, too, didn’t we?
Jill: Yep, we did. You know, it’s okay for lily and devon because they’re really much nicer people than we are.
Jack: You’ll get no argument from me on that.
Jill: Okay, now, I’m gonna ask you a personal question.
Jack: Well, thank you for warning me.
Jill: Oh, you’re welcome. So, I have heard that a miracle has occurred in my absence and diane jenkins has risen from the grave.
Jack: I guess you heard that from one of my siblings.
Jill: Honey, you can’t keep news like that a secret. Besides, I saw her here. And nikki was obviously horrified that she was here, but here’s my question to you. Why weren’t you? I mean, you were really civil to each other, and I’m sure you and kyle must be going through —
Jack: This is neither the time nor the place for that particular discussion.
Jill: Okay, okay, I agree. But please, before we table the topic, may I say something? I understand that this craziness with diane has allowed to find a granddaughter that you never you had. Oh, my god, and while I know that it can’t make up for the loss of your son, darlin’ — and my heart is with you on that — what a gift to have found this girl.
Jack: Her name is allie. And getting to know her has been an absolute godsend.
Jill: Oh. Oh.
Amanda: Hi.
Jill: Hi.
Amanda: Oh, I’m so sorry. Am I interrupting?
Jill: No, not at all. No, we were just finishing up here. I will leave you to it.
Jack: Yeah. I haven’t had a chance to congratulate you on your part in this massive endeavor.
Amanda: Oh, thank you. Thank you. There were a lot of very complicated legal matters involved in this merger.
Jack: Which makes your already-full plate that much fuller.
Amanda: Oh, yes, but I do love a challenge, so…
Jack: Well, at least devon is involved.
Amanda: Yeah. It does make a difference having the right person in your corner.
Jack: We should all be so lucky.
Amanda: You know, discretion is very important as a lawyer, but right now I’d like to talk to you as a friend of a friend.
Jack: Okay.
Amanda: And this friend of mine, she may or may not have told me that she had a falling out with you recently.
Jack: And this friend of yours, does she happen to have red hair?
Amanda: And a soft spot for you. I hope you’re okay. I want you to know I am not taking sides. I’m not making excuses, but it sounds like she made a mistake. And I know that she is very, very sorry about what happened.
Jack: Yeah, so am I.
Abby: Excuse me, everyone. The main event is about to begin. I’m sure that everyone is very excited to hear what the senior executives of chancellor-winters have to say, so, please, let’s all head to the ballroom.
Nate: [ Clears throat ] It will be a great presentation. Definitely worth your while.
Imani: I’m sure it will be. Good luck — not that you need it, okay?
Victor: Where the hell is he?
Nikki: Don’t worry. Adam will be here. Your text said it was important, so he’s curious as to why. I’m sure he has his eye on the ceo position now that victoria has left.
Victor: Right.
Sally: Don’t worry, I will burn the midnight oil on this one. Trust me, it’s handled. Well, nothing like a cloud-server crash to wreck your night.
Adam: Well, I can stay here and I can help you deal with it.
Sally: That is very sweet of you to offer, but it does not take two people to oversee all the techies, and you shouldn’t keep your father waiting any longer.
Adam: Well, I just don’t know why it’s so important for me to go to this party. His text was so vague.
Sally: Well, there’s only one way to find out.
Adam: Yeah, I guess it would be a good idea to go and find out what lily and devon have planned.
Sally: Mm-hmm, yes. Gather all the intel you can and please have a glass of wine on my behalf.
Adam: Oh, I will. I’ll be back later with a full report.
Sally: Okay.
Abby: Hey, there.
Chance: Hey, baby. Just wanted to let you know we just wrapped up the case.
Abby: Oh, that’s great. How did everything go?
Chance: Oh, yeah, it couldn’t have gone better. I can’t wait to tell you about it. So should I head back to the hotel? Is the party still going on? I can meet you at home. I’m up for anything. You tell me.
Abby: Well, I’d love it if you came back here. The party’s just getting going, and the speeches are about to begin.
Chance: I’m on my way. I can’t wait to see you.
Abby: [ Sighs ] What the hell are you doing here? How many events do you have to crash before you realize that you are not welcome?
Lily: Good evening, everyone. I want to thank you all for coming to the launch of chancellor-winters. We are so thrilled to have you all here tonight. And tonight is the start of many exciting things to come. It’s just the beginning of a journey that is going to change the business landscape forever.

Abby: In case you’ve forgotten where the exit is, it’s right over there.
Diane: [ Scoffs ] Did phyllis hire you as her own personal bouncer?
Abby: Actually, I’m overseeing a party that you will not be attending. Bye-bye.
Diane: I wasn’t here for the party, but you should get used to seeing me around. I’ll be staying in genoa city for a while. And having to deal with hateful people like you will only make me stronger.
Abby: Really. Hmm. We’ll see.
Jack: It’s not gonna get easier anytime soon.
Diane: [ Sighs ] I know, but it’s okay, I can take it, because all I really care about is kyle. And, jack, when it comes to our son, I could use some brutal honesty. Do you think that I’m headed for heartbreak? Do you think that he’s going to ultimately turn his back on me the way I did to him?
Lily: Tonight is the celebration of two powerful companies becoming one. And it’s also a personal dream-come-true for me because I’m able to not only continue katherine chancellor’s legacy, but also my father’s, neil winters. And I know that at some point in the future, we will look back on this evening and realize that this was the start of something truly special. This merger could not have happened without the hard work and expertise of so many people, but I first want to acknowledge the owner and former ceo of chancellor, jill abbott.
[ Applause ] When I first approached jill about the idea of merging chancellor with hamilton-winters, I was very nervous because I knew I was taking a risk. But I think it just shows what an amazing businesswoman jill really is, because she understood my vision and she got behind it. And I am so honored to have her here tonight.
[ Applause ] I also want to introduce the company’s leadership team, which includes myself and my fellow ceo, devon hamilton, who’s also my brother.
[ Chuckles ]
Devon: Don’t you forget it.
Lily: Oh, I know. You won’t let me.
[ Chuckles ] But seriously, I’m so lucky and grateful that I have a brother who is such an amazingly creative executive and has one of the sharpest business minds I’ve ever come across. And I’m very grateful to work alongside with him.
[ Chuckles ] I also want to introduce our respective coos, billy abbott and nate hastings.
[ Applause ] See, I look at this company as more than a business venture. It’s a family, both figuratively and literally. Which I think just makes us even more formidable. So we are a team and we are united in our vision for the future of chancellor-winters. Thank you.
[ Applause ] Are you tired of clean clothes that just don’t smell clean?
Devon: So I would like to thank my sister lily for bringing this opportunity to me and for being so incredibly persistent in convincing me when I wasn’t completely sure about this merger.
Lily: [ Chuckles ]
Devon: And the reason that she was that way is because she realized immediately what I now see, which is that this company is going to achieve great things. And I like to compare today to the christening of a ship on its maiden voyage, since we know exactly where we’re going, we’re excited to get there. However, we are not ready to hand over the map just yet. But we do hope that you all will sit back and enjoy the ride with us.
Can you be more specific about the direction of the new company?
You may not want to share the route. Can you at least tell us the ultimate destination of this ship you’re steering?
Devon: The destination I can say will be an unexpected but exciting one.
At least tell us about your first few projects.
Devon: Well, we’re not gonna be revealing any details at this time, but I assure all of you that we have very exciting things in the works.
Why did you drop your name and your mother’s from the company?
Devon: Well, actually, the name hasn’t been dropped from the company. We’re gonna be rebranding lp into hamilton streaming as a tribute to my mom. So the hamilton name will definitely live on at chancellor-winters.
Diane: I’m asking you about kyle because you know him better than anyone. Do you think all these haters are finally going to get to him and turn him against me?
Jack: I think this is a longer conversation. I am missing the presentation right now.
Diane: Oh, I’m sorry.
Jack: I’ll tell you what, i will take you up on your offer to meet you at society and I’ll get out of here as quickly as i politely can.
Diane: Thank you. I appreciate your insight.
Abby: Ugh.
Chance: Hey. Was that —
Abby: Diane, yes, in the flesh.
Chance: Wow. I was wondering when I was gonna run into her around town.
Abby: [ Sighs ]
Chance: What is she doing here? She wasn’t invited, was she?
Abby: Oh, no, of course not.
Chance: Then why’d she show up?
Abby: Look, I don’t know. All that matters is that she’s gone now. Yes, and without her, I don’t want to jinx it, but this could be the first event at the grand phoenix where nothing major goes wrong.
Chance: That’s ’cause you’re running the show, honey.
Abby: Oh, look at you, with all the compliments and finishing your case early. You’re doing everything right tonight.
Chance: Turned out to be a good night, huh?
Abby: Let’s get in there.
Devon: So now at this time, i would like to bring to the microphone, my coo, nate hastings.
[ Applause ]
Nate: Thank you, devon.
[ Sighs ] I am so proud to be a part of this company, not just because i get to work with family, but because of the groundbreaking things I believe we will be able to accomplish. And in the vein of groundbreaking, I’d like to go a little off-script. Answer the reporter’s question earlier about some of our future projects. Regarding our podcast division, chancellor-winters will be launching not one, not two, but 50 new podcasts in the coming weeks. And the first one is gonna take the true-crime genre by storm.
Devon: What is he doing?
Lily: I don’t know.
Nate: Each podcast will have a unique take on a specific topic, covered in a way we have not seen before. They will vary in length and frequency depending on the content, but I promise you this, each and every one of them is going to be spectacular.
You never know
what opportunities
Nikki: That presentation was very impressive.
Lily: Thank you.
Victor: Your father would be very proud of you.
Devon: We appreciate that. Thank you.
Lily: Yeah, thank you. We really hope that katherine and our dad would approve.
Nikki: Well, you know, a while ago, when you asked me what I thought katherine would do in your situation, I really wasn’t expecting anything as ambitious. But you really embraced the way katherine lived her life through this merger. Blazing a bold new trail. I’d like to be the first to say bravo to both of you.
Lily: Wow. Thank you, nikki.
Devon: Yeah.
Lily: That really — that really means a lot to me.
Devon: Especially coming from two people who share ownership in one of our biggest competitors, ’cause I know that going toe-to-toe with newman media is not gonna be easy, to say the least.
Victor: Not gonna be easy.
Nikki: Alright, well, we’ll let you mingle. It’s your evening. Have a wonderful time.
Lily: Thank you. Good night.
Devon: Take care.
Abby: Oh, I’m happy to have a break from supervising the party.
Chance: Well, the night went off without a hitch. Good job, baby. I’m proud of you.
Abby: Oh, thanks, but phyllis and the whole chancellor-winters team, they did a lot of work leading up to tonight, so…
Chance: Yeah.
Abby: I’m just glad it all went well. Are you still thinking about that arrest you made earlier?
Chance: Oh, yeah, maybe a bit. I’m sorry.
Abby: No, no, that’s okay. Tell me about it.
Chance: Yeah? Well, you know, went down in pretty classic style. Guy had no idea we were coming till it was too late. Blood was pumping, danger was in the air, you know?
Abby: Danger? I don’t know if I like the sound of that.
Chance: Oh, no, no, it was all fine. Trust me. I mean, everything went together perfectly. I just — I wish I could tell rey about it. You know, doing all this for him. Another one of his cases closed.
Abby: Well, I’m sure this gives you some closure, too.
Chance: Yeah. Yeah, it sure does. But it’s more than that, you know? I feel like I’m getting my groove back. No second-guessing myself, no last-minute nerves — nothing like that. I mean, today felt like I was meant to do this. I haven’t felt like that in a long time.
Abby: Well, I’m glad that everything went well, but I do have to admit, I’m a little concerned about the risk part. I mean, how much danger was actually in the air?
Chance: No, it’s not that scary because when I’m on my game, there ain’t no issue, alright? I mean, I’m thinking on my feet. I know exactly what I need to do. Just got to trust I got justice on my side.
Abby: Yeah.
We’re please we finally get some specific information about the company, since mr. Hamilton and ms. Winters didn’t give us much.
Nate: Listen, I already told you guys, I spilled some of our secrets. I am not giving them all away. You’ll just have to stay tuned for the rest. If I were you, I would start to regularly check out our social media. Now, let me cut this short before I say something i shouldn’T. Hey. Hope you liked my speech.
Devon: It was definitely unexpected.
Victor: Well, I’m glad you finally showed up, son. Hope you put out whatever fire was ablaze at newman media.
Adam: Sally and I did.
Victor: Good.
Adam: She’s finishing up the last of it so I could be here. She really stepped up.
Victor: I’m glad you’re out and about. You should be seen like a mogul. Which you have become now.
Adam: Okay, thank you for that.
Victor: I’m gonna make an announcement tomorrow morning saying that you will be the new ceo of newman enterprises.
Adam: [ Exhales sharply ] The lows of bipolar depression
“The young and the restless”
will continue. (Lucky) uh-oh the magic’s disappearing!
Adam: [ Exhales sharply ] Dad, uh…I don’t know what to say.
Victor: It’s simple. Say you want the job.
Adam: Yeah. Yes, yes, very much. Just was a little caught off-guard. I…I can’t wait to get started. I’ve got a ton of ideas on how to take the company to new heights. And I know that you have done an excellent job as victoria’s co-ceo, so I look forward to working with you and sharing the title.
Nikki: Oh, that actually won’t be happening. Victoria and I were a team, and I can’t envision having the same working relationship with you, so I’ll be stepping back to my coo position.
Adam: Well, whatever you want, of course.
Victor: Well, that’s actually a good thing, you know. That way, the ceo title will be entirely yours.
Adam: [ Chuckles ] How can I argue with that, right? Well, I appreciate the vote of confidence. I won’t let you down.
Diane: [ Sighs ]
[ Clears throat ] Hi. How did the rest of the launch go?
Jack: It went well. I think chancellor-winters is going to be a force to be reckoned with. But that is not your primary concern right now, is it?
Diane: [ Sighs ] Thank you for meeting with me here. You’re really the only person i can talk to about this. It’s just, um, all my doubts and fears regarding kyle are back in full force, and I —
[ Sighs ] I would just love to get your opinion about the situation.
Jack: Honestly, I don’t think you need to be worried. As I see it, you’re not wasting your time.
Diane: [ Sighs ]
Jack: Kyle has given me every indication that he genuinely… he’s warming to you and wants you back in his life again.
Diane: Oh, I am so happy to hear that and I’m so relieved. I thought that when you said that — that you would meet up with me — I was just worried that you were going to give me bad news. Okay.
[ Sighs ] This makes dealing with the rest of this town a bit more manageable. It gives me hope. And maybe eventually…you’ll even find a way to tolerate me.
Nate: I know I gave up a bit more information than you probably expected.
Devon: It was a little more than a bit.
Nate: But I went with my gut, and I think it paid off.
Devon: Hmm.
Nate: People were hungry for details, any kind of specifics. And giving them a taste just made them hungrier. Look, I apologize for calling an audible, but I am convinced it was the right move. You know I felt all along that we should say more at this launch.
Devon: Yeah, I’ve known how you feel for a while.
Nate: If I’m being honest, i only said a quarter of what i wanted to say.
Devon: Oh, I believe that.
Nate: Look, you can’t deny that the people are excited and still dying to know more about this company.
Lily: Yeah, look, I hate to admit it, but, nate, you were right.
Billy: The investment group from seattle that you just did that photo op with, they are now very interested, and that executive gwen you two had a meeting with a couple days ago, she’s now 100% on board.
Nate: In today’s world, where we’re so saturated with decentralized news sources and social media, people need a way to distinguish the real from the hype. We gave them enough to let the world now chancellor-winters is ready to deliver.
Billy: Well, I’ll raise a glass to that.
Lily: Yeah, me too.
Devon: Well, I guess everything turned out for the best this time. After years on the battlefield
Imani: You did an amazing job, nate. You did the right thing taking my advice.
Nate: You think so, huh?
Imani: You should listen to me more often because I’m usually right.
Nate: [ Chuckles ] Noted. I’ll admit, I was nervous, like we talked about earlier. I always am when I’m giving speeches.
Imani: It didn’t show. You were charismatic, just like you were when you were working on askmdnow.
Nate: Well, that was easier because I didn’t have to look into the eyes of a bunch of people live.
Imani: [ Chuckles ] You are being way too humble — an instinct I really don’t understand because you are an engaging and persuasive speaker. I could tell how impressed everyone was. In fact, I think there were a few women who swooned a little in the crowd.
Nate: Oh, come on now.
Imani: Mm-hmm. Seriously. People weren’t impressed because you’re debonair. They liked what you had to say.
Nate: [ Chuckles ]
Jack: My true feelings about you and your relationship with kyle are irrelevant. I’ve said it before, I am staying neutral. If this is some kind of facade, though, if you have some ulterior motive, I promise you will live to regret it.
Diane: [ Sighs ] I don’t know what I can say to make you believe me. But it’s not a facade. It’s not an act. And you know what’s exhausting? What’s exhausting is trying to hold my head up high around this town while people are lobbing grenades at me. It makes it even more difficult to focus on what’s important to me, and that is kyle.
Jack: I don’t feel sorry for you.
Diane: I’m not asking you to. This is a hard time for me, okay? But I will get through it. And, uh…especially now that you confirmed that there’s still hope.
[ Sighs ] But, jack, there’s something i want to apologize for.
Jack: No, you’ve done that.
Diane: No, no, I want to apologize for something else.
[ Sighs ] I feel like my presence in town might have caused phyllis’ sudden departure, you know, at a time that the two of you were coming together romantically.
Jack: I am not going to discuss my relationship with phyllis in any way, shape, or form with you. Understood?
Diane: Okay. Understood.
Adam: Well, I can’t wait to hit the ground running tomorrow.
Victor: Congratulations, son.
Adam: And just to be clear, does this mean that sally is gonna be running newman media?
Victor: Yeah.
Nikki: Please tell her congratulations on our behalf. We should be leaving. Good night.
Adam: Good night.
Billy: Hey, there. Hope you’re having a good time.
Adam: I am. Thank you.
Billy: Little surprised to see you here.
Adam: [ Clears throat ] Why is that? I like to keep an eye on the competition, and you did invite me.
Billy: Yeah, we did. Yeah, lily and I thought it was only fair since you invited us to newman media’s launch.
Adam: It does have a similar vibe. Same venue, lot of the same people.
Billy: Yeah, except we’re gonna skip the shenanigans with the ice bucket. Anyway, listen, I hope you’re not feeling too threatened with all the attention that chancellor-winters is getting.
Adam: Oh, hardly. I know that our launches may have been similar, but our companies cannot be more different. And you have no idea how the tides have turned.
Billy: Think you might have had a few too many drinks, because you’re not acknowledging the headwinds that newman media’s about to face with chancellor-winters in the game.
Adam: I welcome it. So bring it on. Because from here on out, newman media is not gonna be a stifled division under victoria’s thumb. It’s gonna have the power of newman enterprises in its entirety behind it.
Billy: Am I supposed to understand what the hell that meant?
Adam: Okay, well, I will make it crystal clear. Starting tomorrow, I am gonna be ceo of everything newman. So while you are busy selling off divisions to make room for entertainment, media, and commercial real estate, I might be busy buying up some of them and become bigger, better, and stronger. Nice party, though. Thanks for the invite.
Imani: I hope I’m not intruding. I wanted to introduce myself. I’m imani benedict.
Jill: Oh, you’re amanda’s sister.
Imani: Yes, that’s right. I just wanted to tell you how excited I am to work at chancellor-winters with lily and devon and that nate is doing an incredible job. Matter of fact, this launch party was all his idea.
Jill: Really? Well, yeah, I know nate.
[ Chuckles ] I’m aware of his brilliance. He operated on my grandson years ago.
Imani: You get it.
Jill: I do.
Imani: He excels at everything he tries. Is there anything that man can’t do?
Jill: [ Chuckles ]
Amanda: Well, hello, hello. I am so glad that the two of you got a chance to meet each other. Unfortunately, I need to borrow my sister for a second, if that’s okay.
Jill: Oh, no problem.
Amanda: Yeah, I did bring you some company.
Jill: Company.
Amanda: Come on, sis.
[ Chuckles ]
Jill: Hi, honey. Tell me something. Does nate hastings live with elena dawson?
Chance: Yeah, he does.
Jill: Ooh, wow. Elena better watch out for that one.
Imani: What are you doing? I thought part of tonight was about networking, and I was talking to someone who is very important.
Amanda: I know, and I saw you, but we don’t want to come on too strong. And I saw that giancarlo has been alone most of the night, so maybe you should go over there and keep him company, hmm?
Imani: You are not worried about giancarlo. You’re still stuck on your thing about me and nate.
Amanda: Oh, honey, I am not the one who is stuck. And I’ve already told you — stay away from nate. He doesn’t need you praising him to jill, and I do suspect that if you had known that elena wasn’t gonna be here tonight, you might have turned giancarlo down, huh? So you can put the moves on nate. So let me warn you — keep your distance from nate for the rest of the night.
Imani: Listen, I love you, but I am getting sick and tired of you trying to tell me how to lead my life. You’re the one who needs to back off.
Diane: You got to admit, this wasn’t so bad, was it? Sharing a meal and some non-combative conversation.
Jack: Oh, I think your definition of “non-combative” might be a little skewed.
Diane: [ Chuckles ] You’re right. Let’s just say it was at the low end of the range.
Jack: [ Chuckles ]
Diane: Oh. Looks like my respite’s over. No matter who you are,
Nikki: Twice in one night. This cannot be my future.
Diane: Relax, nikki, we’re finished and I’m leaving.
Jack: I’ll walk you out before any more grenades are lobbed in your direction. Good night.
Diane: Thank you.
Nikki: Now, why would jack be spending time with diane? And how are people like her and ashland so easily forgiven?
Victor: Good question.
Nikki: [ Sighs ]
Adam: I’m back.
Sally: You stole champagne from the party for me? I’m so touched.
Adam: Actually, I bought it, because it is a very special occasion and I did not want to go for the cheap stuff that lily and devon sprung for, so…
Sally: What is going on?
Adam: Guess why my dad was so desperate to talk to me.
Sally: Because he finally succeeded at his goal of literally taking over the world?
Adam: Eh, even better, especially for us.
Sally: Well, I don’t know. I’m stumped. Just tell me.
Adam: You are looking at the new ceo of newman enterprises.
Sally: Oh, my god, you did it! Congratulations!
[ Laughs ]
Adam: And — and I am looking at the very beautiful new ceo of newman media.
Sally: What?
Adam: Yes, not only was I put in charge, my dad promoted you, so congratulations.
Sally: Oh, my god, this is everything we wanted.
Adam: Well, it didn’t go exactly as we expected, but we pulled it off. I mean, we make a pretty incredible team.
Sally: Well, we should commemorate this moment.
Adam: And how do you suggest that we do that?
Imani: Sorry we didn’t get much time to hang out and talk tonight. I’ll admit, I was trying to work the room a bit.
Giancarlo: I completely understand. This was a business function.
Imani: Mm-hmm, I saw you doing your fair share of networking, as well. Though you may have spent a bit too much time with claire from accounting for my liking.
Giancarlo: Oh, you’re jealous.
Imani: No, I don’t get jealous.
Giancarlo: Well, you feel like catching up now? I don’t mind extending my evening. How about a nightcap?
Imani: Mm. Normally, I would, but I’m exhausted. I think I’m just gonna head off to bed.
Giancarlo: Thinking of me?
Imani: If you’re lucky.
[ Door opens ]
[ Door closes ]
Nate: Hey.
Elena: Hey.
Nate: I’m sorry to wake you.
Elena: Don’t apologize. I want to hear all about the party. How did it go?
Nate: [ Sighs ] Well, tonight surpassed my wildest expectations.
Elena: Wow. Mm, I hope you took a lot of pictures. I want to see all the glitz and glam I missed.
Nate: Oh, there are plenty of photos I can show you, but what is most important is I took a risk and it paid off.
Elena: Oh?
Nate: I went a little rogue with my speech, got into some specifics devon didn’t want to discuss.
Elena: How’d that go over?
Nate: Really well. It generated a lot of buzz, even lily had to admit I was right all along.
Elena: And what about devon?
Nate: He seemed good with it. But I feel like I am in the exact right place at the exact right time.
Elena: Aww. Well, I’m glad you had such a perfect evening.
Nate: Not quite. You weren’t there by my side.
Devon: There you are.
Amanda: Thank you.
Devon: Mm-hmm. Well, I’d say tonight was quite the success.
Amanda: Mm.
Devon: Even if nate has potentially proven to be a handful.
Amanda: Oh, he’s still getting his footing. Remember, this is all very new to him.
Devon: Yeah, I’d like to think that’s all it is and everything’s gonna be okay.
Amanda: Okay, stop it. Stop looking for trouble. You had a tremendous night. And guess what.
Devon: Mm.
Amanda: Your night’s not over yet.
Devon: Oh.
Billy: I hope you are basking in tonight’s success.
Lily: Oh, I definitely am.
Billy: And to hell with adam and the company that he snagged by default.
Lily: Please, I haven’t even given him a second thought.
Billy: [ Sighs ] That’s why I adore you. You did good tonight. You scored a huge achievement, and I am humbled to be in your presence.
Lily: Oh, how humbled?
Billy: I’ll show you in about an hour from now.
Lily: Okay, I’m gonna hold you to that.
Billy: I hope so.
Lily: [ Chuckles ] Honestly, though, I couldn’t have done this without you.
Billy: I appreciate you saying that, but I was here to support you. I really didn’t have much to do with tonight’s success. This — all of this — was all you, baby.
Lily: [ Chuckles ]
