Steffy: Dad, come on. I’m talking about you and mom and the love you have for each other. It’s obvious. Here’s what I know: Life is a gift. Your whole life can change in a moment. I mean, finn and I, yeah, we were happy with each other. We didn’t take each other for granted, but our time? Yeah. Absolutely. We always thought that we would have our future. Years and years of raising our children, growing old together. And that awful night, everything was taken away. And I did, I– I learned something. That life is fleeting. And in a moment, the person you love can be taken away. I know you know that. I just don’t understand why you continue to be with someone who constantly hurts you. Stop wasting your time on brooke. Have the life you deserve, dad. Have it with mom.

Taylor: Yeah, for sure. Just, ye– refill his current prescription. Yeah, every– keep everything the same. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that’s fine. Okay. Thank you so much. Okay. Bye. Oh, my god.

Thomas: What’s shakin’?

Taylor: Oh, my god. I love you. Thank you so much. This is such a nice surprise.

Thomas: Yeah. Oh, you’re welcome. It is– oh, it’s– okay, go ahead. Yeah, just enjoy it.

Taylor: Mmm. Oh, my god. It’s perfect.

Thomas: They call that the legen-dairy birthday cake.

Taylor: It’s– and it’s– it feels like my birthday.

[ Laughing ]

Thomas: It’s punny, is what it is.

Taylor: That was good.

Thomas: Anyway, so your office said you’re working here.

Taylor: Mm-hm.

Thomas: What’s going on?

Taylor: Nothing, really. I mean, I love my office, but I hate the traffic.

Thomas: Totally get that.

Taylor: I– yeah.

Thomas: I just spent an hour in it, so, you know.

Taylor: So, how’s it going over at eric’s with douglas?

Thomas: Oh, it’s great. Oh, man. It’s so amazing having so much, like, concentrated time with my son.

Taylor: Yes! That’s as it should be.

Thomas: Yeah. I mean, we’re just so lucky that hope is, uh, allowing us to spend this time together, you know?

Liam: I like how you say hello.

Hope: Oh, well. Hello.

Liam: I love you.

Hope: I love you, too.

Liam: It’s, um, getting kind of awkward how quiet it is without douglas here.

Hope: Oh, I know. I miss him too.

Liam: I think it’s time we bring him home.

Hope: I was just talking with my mom about this.

Liam: I– yeah, it doesn’t shock me. Brooke and I are usually on the same page when it comes to this stuff.

Hope: Okay, so I’m going to tell you exactly what I told her. Which is more than anything, I want douglas home here with us. But at the same time, I don’t wanna push it with thomas. I– I don’t wanna start a custody battle.

Liam: Okay, but– nobody wants a custody battle. But that, that fear, that fear of pushing it with thomas, you can’t let that prevent douglas from being wh– you know, where he lives, namely with us.

Hope: Uh– I know, but I– I have been to eric’s, and I have seen first hand how much fun he’s having there, how happy he is to be with his father.

Liam: Aw, man. I get– okay. I always hate it when it gets to this point where I hear myself saying this stuff, but… I– I– I’m worried thomas is getting in your head again.

Taylor: Okay, just to clarify, it’s– it’s not hope’s place to allow you to see douglas. He’s your son.

Thomas: Okay. Heh. That’s true. But I don’t want things getting contentious between the two of us and hope and I are in a good place. And she realizes that I’ve changed. And that’s a good thing. We’ll work things out. Okay?

Ridge: I know what you’re doing. You’re being a good daughter. You’re trying to protect your mother and me.

Steffy: I just love you both so much. And I see the incredible potential you have for a wonderful future. And I know you see it, too. I see it. I see it all the time. And I just can’t stay quiet about it.

Ridge: Ah, ’cause you’ve been quiet this whole time.

Steffy: I to– I’ve definitely been quiet.

Ridge: Mm.

Steffy: Okay, what I’m saying is that you need to move out of brooke’S. Move in with– with granddad. Do whatever it takes to have a future with mom. That’s what I’m saying.

Hope: I just don’t want us to forget that douglas is the one who asked to spend more time with thomas. And I get that you’re concerned, and in the past, yes, thomas has given us a lot of reason to be–

Liam: Okay, but– okay, but that– but that is kinda the question, isn’t it? I mean, I– I’m not convinced it is in the past. I’ll tell you this: When I left him, it was the exact same sinking feeling I used to have.

Hope: Still can’t believe you went to go see thomas.

Liam: I know. I’m sorry. I should’ve– I was trying to be helpful. Helpful liam. You know, I thought maybe I could bring douglas home on my own. Didn’t work.

Hope: So, what gave you that sinking feeling?

Liam: It’s the whole– it’s the whole thing. It’s the whole, you know, it’s– it’s thomas showing up all of a sudden, demanding more time with his son. And when you are kind enough and generous enough to give that to him, what does he do? He takes advantage of it by never, literally never, bringing douglas back home again, which means that if you wanna see your own son, you have to keep doing these visits over at eric’s, to which I am never invited, by the way. So, what does that tell you? It’s just– it’s just very– it’s just all very classic thomas manipulation mode stuff.

Hope: I know, I know. And I get it. But I– I’m going to need you to trust me. I am well aware when it comes to thomas, but right now, right now, liam, I just wanna keep the peace. But where we should maybe be concerned is my mother.

Liam: What? Why? What did I miss?

Hope: Oh, just more of the same. Except now I really do think that steffy and taylor might be trying to break up my mother and ridge’s marriage.

Liam: Oh.

Hope: Yeah.

Thomas: Yeah. So, talking about hope and me and– and how we’re parents and we’re wonderful parents, I think, is– is great, and it’s so much fun for me. But I think we should talk about you, some other parents, you and dad. Hm? How you belong together.

Taylor: Oh, god. Uh– you know, you should’ve been here earlier when steffy was here, and the two of you could’ve teamed up. Done that thing that you do so well.

Thomas: Yeah, we do that– a really good job at that. You know, um… I will say, steffy and I don’t always agree, but on this, uh, she’s right on the money. I mean, you and dad, you do belong together.

Taylor: Oh. Too bad he’s married to brooke.

Thomas: Technically.

Taylor: Okay, well, then, technically, you and your sister want me to steal brooke’s husband. And that is not why I came back to L.A. And you guys keep doing this.

Thomas: Well, we wouldn’T. We wouldn’t tell you to do that because we know you’re not that kind of person. You would never try and steal someone’s husband. Brooke would. She– she has. She would again. It doesn’t matter. What I’m saying is is that we can see that you and dad belong together. You’re so great for each other. And if I could make a perfect world, I would take dad and just stick him with you.

Taylor: Oh, that’s so romantic. But I– you know, I think that your father has a say in all this, thomas.

Thomas: Yes, he does have a say in all this.

Taylor: Oh, boy.

Thomas: And I think deep down, this is what he wants. He loves you and you love him.

Taylor: Yes, this is true.

Thomas: Okay. I– I told dad the same thing I’m telling you right now. You two belong together. So, you know, just get together.

Taylor: Ah.

Thomas: Do it.

[ Taylor sighing ]

Ridge: Why are you making it sound like this is a simple situation? It’s not. I’m married to brooke because I wanna be.

Steffy: You don’t have to be. And you shouldn’T. Especially all the times she’s disrespected you. I mean, you could be with mom who loves you, honors you. Cherish–

Ridge: ‘Til death do us part.

Steffy: Now you’re getting the picture.

Ridge: I’ve always gotten the picture. I know you want. You– you want me together with your mom and have a happy family. Ye–

Steffy: I’m not askign for myself. I mean, yeah, thomas and I would love our parents to be back together. But ultimately, that is your choice. You have to decide. You can be with brooke, who cheats on you–

Ridge: Oh, come on.

Steffy: Who’s careless with your heart, or– or you could be with mom, who loves you and will make sure you’re always heard and seen. And who would never– she would never, ever, ever cheat on you. Mom is waiting for you with so much love in her heart. Look, if– if you don’t– if you don’t love her, then say it and– and I’ll stop trying.

Ridge: Of course, I love her. You know I love her. I will always love her. At metro by t-mobile… you can save more…

Hope: I get it. I– I’m sure this probably sounds paranoid, but I really do think I’m right. Taylor and steffy are actively trying to work against my mother’s marriage to ridge.

Liam: That doesn’t sound paranoid at all. I know your mom feels the same way.

Hope: Well, I thought she was at first just being overly cautious, given their history. But now, I think taylor and steffy definitely want ridge back with taylor.

Liam: Okay. But d– do you feel like they’re getting anywhere with that?

Hope: Well, it’s never smart to underestimate my mom and ridge’s connection. But at the same time, taylor did kiss him in monaco. And now, there are all of these forrester get togethers.

Liam: Yeah, right. Yeah, must feel like old times.

Hope: Yeah, except now there’s a lot of grandkids running around. But you should have seen them together, liam. It was like taylor took every opportunity to cozy up to ridge. I mean, she was practically in his lap.

Liam: It’s got to be uncomfortable for you to just have to sit there and watch.

Hope: Watch another woman pursue my mother’s husband right in front of my eyes. Yeah, it’s just a little bit weird, but, um, I haven’t said anything to my mom yet. I just– I don’t want her to get upset. And maybe overreact and then do something that would further taylor and steffy’s cause, but–

Liam: Oh. Yeah.

Hope: But it needs to stop.

Liam: Where are you going?

Hope: Oh, just to have a friendly chat with steffy.

Thomas: Okay, look. Steffy and I, we’re both grown-ups. We have kids of our own. Okay? We don’t need our parents back together. We don’t need to be one wonderful family unit, but…

[ Sighing ] We see what both of you are missing. Okay? And weirdly, it’s the same thing for both of you, even though you’re single and dad is supposed to be married.

Taylor: Um, he is married.

Thomas: Would you like to know what you’re missing?

Taylor: Nah, you’re going to tell me.

Thomas: I’m definitely gonna tell you. There’s no way I’m not going to tell you.

Thomas: It’s love. It’s– it’s– it’s happiness. It’s– it’s mutual respect. It’s joy in the relationship. And you guys are wonderful together. You have this– this dynamic that– it just is– is beautiful and comfortable and healthy. And– and it’s not like that with brooke. Okay, with brooke, it’s all about she– she’s got an issue every single week that needs to be solved, and she needs him to solve it. So, he’s got to be her savior. That’s not healthy for him. That’s not healthy for her either. But you guys together, it’s– it’s– it’s wonderful. He– he– he comes to life around you. And I know it’s the same way for you, too.

Taylor: Yeah. Yeah, it is.

Thomas: Right.

Taylor: You know, steffy says that it’s only a matter of time, but I just–

Thomas: Well, steffy’s right. I think it is only a matter of time. You guys are going to end up back together. And when you do, dad is going to, uh, look at his two wonderfully brilliant kids and be like, “hey, why didn’t I just listen to them?”

Taylor: Oh, my god. Come here, you brilliant kid.

[ Thomas laughing ] I love you so much.

Thomas: I love you, too.

Steffy: I love hearing those words come out of your mouth. The simple truth: You love mom.

Ridge: I have never denied that.

Steffy: And this is your chance. You just said that you love her.

Ridge: I know what I said and of– of course I love. I have a family with her. I have a history with her. Se does thi–

Steffy: Then claim the life you’ve always wanted. I mean, if you wanna find real happiness, you gotta grab it. Hold on to it. That’s exactly what you have with mom. And deep down, you guys are so connected, and no offense or anything, but you’re not getting any younger.

Ridge: Well, that’s rude. I’ve been taking care of myself. I look great.

Steffy: You are– you look great. But what I’m saying is that you can find true happiness with mom. She’ll give you stability, peace, everything. Brooke’s not gonna give that to you. So why don’t you leave here, go to mom, say that you, um, love her, and go back to her. Go back to mom.

[ Thomas sighing ]

Steffy: Where have you been?

Thomas: I was over at your house talking to mom about dad.

Steffy: Really? Great minds think alike. I was actually talking to dad about mom.

Thomas: I like that we’re in sync about this, because if both of us keep saying things to them, maybe one of them will hear us.

Steffy: I know. Here’s hoping. I mean, if they could only realize they could have an amazing future. It could be so magical.

Thomas: I know. It really would be. I mean, I– they’re so great together. They should just finally do it already and then move into a beautiful life together.

Steffy: Yeah. Well, dad actually admitted to me that he loves mom. He just needs to end this unhealthy cycle with brooke. I mean, think about all the things she has done. She’s cheated on dad with his father, with his brother, it’s disgusting.

Thomas: It’s toxic.

Steffy: I don’t know why he’s loyal to her. He should just move on to be with mom.

[ Door slamming ]

Hope: You know, I think that’s enough bashing of my mother for one day.

Thomas: Hey, hope.

Hope: You have a lot of nerve judging my mom.

Steffy: Well, it’s my father’s marriage, so I’m allowed to have an opinion.

Hope: Yeah, and ridge loves my mother, and no amount of you putting her down or trying to pit the forresters against the logans is going to change that. And for the record, I am no longer going to sit idly by and allow you and taylor to undermine my mother’s marriage.

Steffy: It’s only a matter

of time before you and dad

are back together.

Thomas: You guys are going

to end up back together.

[ Door closing ]

Ridge: Ah.

Taylor: Hey.

Ridge: Hey, yourself.

Taylor: What are you doing?

Ridge: I was just with steffy and she gave me an earful.

Taylor: Oh, my gosh. Thomas was just here doing the same.

Ridge: Those kids, right?

Taylor: Yes, I know.

Ridge: Quite a team.

Taylor: They really are. So, what are you doing here?

Ridge: I came to check on you.

Taylor: Because?

Ridge: Because if I got an earful, I knew you were gonna be next. And you were.

Taylor: Yes, I was.

[ Both sighing ]

Taylor: Those kids, they– they want us together so bad.

Ridge: The kiss in monaco raised their hopes.

Taylor: Yeah. And it’s so silly, right? Because we were just– were just caught up in the moment, and steffy and–

Ridge: Well, it was more than that, right?

Taylor: What are you saying?

Ridge: Saying that our kids are smart.

Taylor: Mm.

Ridge: Intuitive.

Taylor: Yeah.

Ridge: They get that from their mother.

Taylor: Me.

Ridge: I know.

Taylor: Yeah. They can see right through me. Mm. It is so annoying. They know how much I love you.

Ridge: Well, I love you too, doc.

Taylor: Say that again.

Ridge: Well, I love you too, doc.

Taylor: It feels really good to hear that. So, is that why you came by? Just to– just to tell me you love me and that maybe you’re ready to start a future with me?

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

John and Marlena wake up in bed together. Marlena comments that she hasn’t slept that well in ages. Marlena calls it nice that everything is back to normal. John responds that he’s not so sure about that. Marlena assures that everything is back to normal.

At home, Kayla calls upon Steve and warns that they are still in trouble as she finds a bouquet of flowers at the door. Steve tells her that it’s not what she thinks as Kayla worries that Orpheus is not giving up and drops the flowers.

At the Brady Pub, Roman calls Kate and leaves a message for her to call him. Kate then arrives. Roman complains about waking up and she wasn’t there. Kate is sure he was scared and apologizes for not thinking. Roman warns her that Orpheus is out there somewhere. Kate says she just ran out to get him a make up birthday cupcake.

Rafe wakes up from a nightmare about walking in on Nicole in bed with Eric. Nicole then asks Rafe what’s wrong.

Eric and Jada wake up in bed together. Jada says she didn’t plan on sleeping with him again last night but they ended up here. Eric jokes it was pretty intense and asks if something is bothering her. Jada points out that she broke one of her rules to not sleep with someone until they’ve at least been on three dates and they have technically only been on two. Jada guesses she might as well throw that rule out the window. Jada brings up that Eric was a priest, so she can’t help but wonder if he thinks less of her because they’ve gone to bed together and they just met.

Roman reminds Kate that he didn’t want to make his birthday a big deal and now the celebration is going on a third day. Kate says he never got to have a cake on his actual birthday, so the third one is the charm. Roman asks what could go wrong. Kate lights a candle and tells him to make a wish. Roman wishes that the next time she leaves him in bed, she leaves a note so he doesn’t get worried sick about her. Kate sneezes again on the cupcake, taking out the candle. Kate can’t believe she did that again and wonders what is wrong with her.

Kayla worries about the flowers and wants to call Rafe but Steve reveals that he sent her the flowers. Steve apologizes for scaring her and points out the card. Kayla says she was too scared to look at it. Steve explains that he just wanted her to have her yellow roses as that’s their thing and he wasn’t going to let Orpheus take that away from them. Kayla calls them beautiful and thanks him. Kayla smells the flowers but then suddenly sneezes. Steve asks if she’s coming down with a cold. Kayla points out there’s no other symptoms and blows it off as nothing. Steve asks if she’s not contagious then as he kisses her. Kayla mentions needing to get to work. Steve asks her to call as soon as she gets there so he doesn’t spend the morning worrying about her. Kayla agrees to do that and prays they find Orpheus soon because she hates living like this.

Kate apologizes to Roman. Roman says it’s just a cupcake but he is worried about her. Kate says she feels fine and wonders if it’s allergies. Kate adds that she can’t describe how she feels. Roman checks her and says she feels a little warm so he wants to get her seen by a doctor as he thinks she has a fever. Kate says she doesn’t have the energy to fight and wants to find out if she’s contagious. Roman wants to get her to the hospital but Kate says she’s driving herself in case she is contagious. Kate then exits the Pub. Roman then throws away the cupcake.

John tells Marlena that things are not back to normal because Orpheus is still out there. Marlena says she won’t let him control their lives, so she will pretend things are normal. Marlena brings up that Orpheus kidnapped three women so the police and FBI are looking for him. John worries that it doesn’t guarantee anything. Marlena asks if they have to talk about it because she doesn’t want to think about it for one day. Marlena gets up and decides she’s going to work because that is what’s normal for her and she wants normal. John asks if she really has to go. Marlena says she must have a ton of work piling on her desk. John asks if they can talk about it. John points out that it’s a beautiful day and suggests they go down to the inn on the lake. John guarantees the paper work will still be there when she gets back. Marlena says that sounds wonderful but it sounds like they are letting Orpheus run everything now. John feels that he is and talks about he and Steve interrupting Stephanie’s meeting because of him. Marlena argues that he couldn’t have known what was happening so he can’t blame himself and they have to stop feeling afraid. Marlena declares they have to let the police handle this for them. John urges her to be careful. Marlena assures that the hospital has security in place and are on alert for Orpheus, so she couldn’t be any safer than she is there at the hospital. John jokes that he hates when she starts making good points. John offers to drive Marlena to the hospital which she accepts because she knows he’ll just follow her anyway. John kisses her and asks if she wants to stay. Marlena goes to shower while John makes coffee.

Eric apologizes to Jada if she feels like he’s judged her. Jada clarifies that it’s not him as she really wanted this to happen, but maybe he didn’t and she doesn’t know him very well. Jada adds that she’s never known a priest before. Eric states that he’s not a priest anymore and assures that he wanted this to happen too which Jada says is good to know. Eric adds that it can happen again and kisses her.

Rafe tells Nicole that it was just a dream. Nicole asks him to tell her about it. Rafe says it was about her. Nicole asks if something happened to her in his dream and assures that she’s right there. Nicole tells Rafe that he can tell her anything as he’s starting to scare her. Nicole says if he doesn’t tell her about the dream, she’s going to imagine something worse. Rafe then admits that he dreamt that he caught her in bed with Eric. Rafe talks about how real it was. Nicole is sorry that he had such an awful dream but questions what brought this up. Rafe says he doesn’t know and suggests maybe it was something Jada said at work the other day which Nicole questions what that was.

Eric and Jada kiss in bed. Eric tells her that he doesn’t have to work this morning and offers her breakfast in bed. Eric talks about working for his dad and getting to plan his own hours and only work when he has to. Eric says he enjoys working at the Pub and being around his dad. Jada says she likes Roman too. Eric talks about being in Africa the last few years and always having something to do that mattered. Eric guesses in the end, it seemed to matter more than his marriage and his life here. Jada asks if he’d want to go back to Africa. Eric says he was fired as a priest so there is no going back. Jada asks if there’s something that matters here that he can do. Eric is sure there is and brings up how he used to run the Horton Center but he doesn’t want to go backward and he wants to move forward. Eric says he was always clear about what he wanted to do and his goals, but right now he’s so unclear and he doesn’t know what he wants to do which is new for him.

John goes to Steve’s and tells him that he just dropped Marlena off at the hospital. Steve says he wanted to take Kayla too but she wouldn’t let him. John knows Marlena just wants to move forward like nothing’s wrong but they know Orpheus is out there and this time, he doesn’t want to get blindsided by his next attack.

Kayla arrives at the hospital and texts Steve that she made it safe and sound. Marlena arrives and greets her. Marlena mentions that John insisted on taking her to work this morning. Kayla guesses they can’t blame them for being worried and knows she’d be hypocritical because she worries about Steve and the kids. Marlena hates always looking over her shoulder. Kayla tells Marlena about Steve sending her yellow roses and she freaked out, thinking they were from Orpheus. Marlena relates to always thinking it’s going to be Orpheus when the elevator opens. Kate then arrives and tells Kayla that she came to get checked out because she wasn’t feeling too good. Kayla asks what the problem is. Kate talks about having a fever and not feeling great. Kate notes feeling woozy coming up here. Kayla and Marlena point out that Kate looks pale and suggests she sit down. Kate tries to blow it off and say it was just Roman that wanted her to get checked out but she’s sure she’s fine. Kayla insists on getting her to an exam room. They start to head that way but Kate suddenly collapses. Kayla rushes back to check on her and asks if she can hear her.

John tells Steve that Marlena thinks they should just leave everything to the police. John mentions calling Shawn and they have nothing on Orpheus. Steve doesn’t trust the silence as he knows Orpheus is up to something, so he doesn’t want to wait around for it just like John. John agrees and thinks it’s time they make a move on their own.

Kayla and Marlena get Kate in a hospital bed. Marlena goes to call Roman. Kate wakes up and asks what happened. Kayla informs her that she fainted, has a slight temperature, and was feeling woozy. Kayla asks if she has any other symptoms. Kate then starts sneezing and says she didn’t even feel it coming on. Kayla brings up that she’s been sneezing too. Kate asks if she has a temperature. Kayla admits she feels a bit warm. Kate asks if she’s thinking what she is thinking. Kayla then decides to get a thermometer, but Kayla then collapses.

Eric and Jada have breakfast together. Jada asks if Eric ever thought about being a chef because it’s really good. Eric admits he enjoys cooking but it’s not his passion. Jada asks what his passion is. Eric talks about helping people in counseling at the Horton Center but they have a new director. Jada asks what he did before he was a priest. Eric informs her that he did photography for fashion and mentions that Nicole was a model but apologizes saying there was no need to bring up his past relationship. Jada disagrees and asks how they can get to know each other without talking about their past. Eric guesses that’s true. Jada asks if he fell in love with Nicole while photographing her.

Nicole asks Rafe what Jada said. Rafe calls it nothing but Nicole thinks it’s something if it triggered a dream. Rafe tells her that Jada thought Nicole might think it was weird that she’s going out with Eric. Rafe says she told her that Nicole was fine with it but Jada reacted like she was skeptical. Nicole asks if she told him that she went to see Eric the other day. Rafe reveals that Jada didn’t say that but Nicole just did. Rafe questions her going to see Eric and why. Nicole thinks back to her sex dream about Eric. Nicole then tells Rafe that she wanted to talk to Eric about something which Rafe questions.

Eric tells Jada that was when he and Nicole met a long time ago. Jada asks if he’s still interested in photography. Eric talks about he used to reach for his camera at every spare moment in Africa. Eric talks about his photos winning a competition. Jada would really like to see those photos so Eric suggests right now and goes to get them.

John tells Steve that the only people Orpheus really cares about is his kids and grandkids. John brings up Zoey being in New Zealand with Evan’s kid and that Evan is on his way there with he and Jan Spears’ kid. Steve doesn’t know if it will do any good but he has an old ISA contact in New Zealand that he can call. John brings up Zoey being different than the rest of them as she was always very honest about what a good job Rafe did with little David. John wonders if they should get Rafe to appeal to Zoey as a parent. Steve says he’ll take anything as they have to get a hold of Orpheus before he strikes again…

Kate checks on Kayla on the ground until she wakes up, asking what happened. Kate tells her that she fainted and doesn’t think it’s a coincidence. They bring up Orpheus and worry about Marlena.

Roman arrives at the hospital and asks Marlena how Kate is. Marlena says she will take him to her, but then stops and collapses in to Roman’s arms.

Rafe questions why Nicole went to see Eric. Nicole claims that she was going to offer him a job because Basic Black has a new campaign coming up and they don’t have a photographer and she thought this project would really help him get over not being a priest. Rafe points out that Nicole didn’t say anything about it to him. Nicole claims that’s because he’s been so busy at work, so it just slipped her mind. Rafe asks if Eric is going to take the job. Nicole says that Jada interrupted, so she never got to finish the conversation. Nicole knows they both have to go to work but says she’s going to take a shower first. Nicole kisses him and then goes to shower.

Eric shows Jada some of his favorite photos. Jada calls them really great and powerful. Jada asks if he ever thought about getting back in to it. Eric admits that it’s crossed his mind but there are other photographers. Jada brings up Eric saying his brother owned a fashion company. Eric mentions that he co-owns it with Nicole. Jada remarks that all roads lead back to Nicole. Eric apologizes. Jada says she’s sorry as it was a dumb thing to say. Eric understands and says there is something that crosses his mind. Eric offers to talk to Jack about doing work for the Spectator. Jada says they’d be lucky to have him. Jada says she has to get going and thanks him for the breakfast. Eric says anytime and he looks forward to their their third date. Jada jokes that she hopes they can figure out something to do as she exits.

Roman gets Marlena in to a hospital bed as John arrives. Roman then goes to check on Kate. John tells Marlena that he knew she shouldn’t have let her talk him in to bringing her to work. Marlena says it wouldn’t have changed anything as she still probably would’ve fainted. She’s just glad Roman was there to catch her. Marlena mentions Roman being so worried about Kate. Marlena says it can’t be a coincidence that she and Kate both fainted. John then reveals that Kayla had fainted also.

Steve sits Kayla up on the hospital bed as Roman sits with Kate. Steve asks Kayla if she’s sure she’s okay. Kayla says she is for the moment but it just comes over her in waves. Kate feels the same. Kayla declares that it’s Orpheus. Roman asks if she has any idea what it is. Kayla says the symptoms are sneezing, low-grade fever, and fainting. Kayla asks if they feel fine. Roman confirms that they and John feel fine so it can’t be that contagious. Kayla guesses that Orpheus exposed them to something in the warehouse. Steve says that means the kidnapping was just a setup and they were meant to find them. Kayla worries that with Orpheus associating with Dr. Rolf, it could be anything. Steve says that one thing they know about Orpheus is that he likes to take credit for everything and put his signature on it, like sending Kayla flowers and messaging them about the puzzles and the bomb. Roman realizes the bomb was never going to go off and this was the payoff. Steve guesses that Orpheus wanted them to know and that they are going to be hearing from him real soon.

Rafe goes to work at the police station. Jada arrives and hopes she’s not late. Rafe points out that she’s actually six minutes early and asks how her evening was. Jada says it was good as they celebrated Eric’s dad’s birthday. Rafe asks how things are going with her and Eric. Jada says it’s early but she thinks it’s going great and they are getting to know each other which she calls nice. Rafe asks Jada if Eric said he was going to take that job, but Jada questions what he’s talking about.

Eric gets out of the shower and Nicole shows up at his door.

Steve, Roman, and John get a video call from Orpheus, saying he hears the women they love are under the weather. Orpheus is sure they’ve figured out by now that he’s behind what’s happening to them. Orpheus declares that he doesn’t want to keep them in suspense about what’s in store for them and notes that it sounds ominous..

Primetime TV Review: Monarch

TV Review!

 

“Monarch” Review on by Eva 9/13/2022

I decided to watch Monarch after I saw some video clips of the show which made me think that it was going to be a nighttime soap opera. While I really enjoy daytime soaps, I also enjoy nighttime soaps if they are good and Monarch is very good.

The show centers around the first family of country music the Roman family, which seems like a family who is living the American dream, but behind closed doors everyone in the family is hiding secrets.

The Matriarch of the family is Dottie Roman (Susan Sarandon) who is facing a battle with cancer and how she handles that battle with cancer will leave a lasting impact on her family especially her daughter Nicolette “Nicky” Roman. Dottie’s husband Albie Roman (Trace Atkins) loves his wife, children, and singing but he hates the business side of the music industry. Albie and Dottie will do whatever they have to do to protect their family image as the first family of country music.

The show premiered its first episode on Sunday, September 11, 2022, but will debut in its regular time slot on Tuesday, September 20, 2022, at 9 PM Eastern time 8 PM Central time on Fox.

If you missed the first episode it is worth going to ABC.com or Hulu to watch it. This show is full of twists and turns that keep viewers guessing what will happen next and gives you the classic soap staple the cliff hanger. The first episode is full of classic country song covers, but the show also plans to have original country songs in it.

I give this show 5 out of 5 stars and I will be watching it every week.

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

Alex is in the Titan office on the phone with Justin. Alex tells Justin to give Sonny his best and that he’ll see him soon. Alex hangs up as Stephanie enters the office. Alex informs her of the great news that Sonny is awake which relieves her. Alex adds that Stephanie’s press release worked it’s magic on the Titan stock prices. Stephanie congratulates him but Alex says it’s thanks to her and suggests they celebrate by going out for drinks.

Ava questions why Johnny is being so nice to her. Johnny responds that he likes having her around and he cares about her a lot. Johnny and Ava then start kissing onto the bed.

Li enters the living room of the DiMera Mansion and tells EJ that he was grateful to be invited to Jake’s memorial since he was closer to him than most of the family. EJ responds that now that it’s over, he can feel free to make a quick exit. Li says that EJ will be free of him as soon as Gabi is finished saying her final goodbyes to Stefan…

Gabi removes her old wedding ring and places it at Stefan’s plaque in the Crypt. Gabi says she never imagined she’d be telling Stefan about her feelings for another man and she hopes he understands that as wonderful as what they had was, she needed to make a new life for herself. Gabi adds that even though she and Li are engaged, Stefan is the love of her life and always will be, but she has to let him go. Gabi says goodbye to Stefan. Gabi then gets up to leave right as Stefan returns to the Crypt. Gabi is shocked as Stefan says hello to her.

Chanel and Allie go to Paulina’s apartment, bringing her and Abe 9,998 “Vote for Abe” campaign cookies. Chanel asks if they meet her quality but Paulina responds that she’s sorry as they just won’t do.

Johnny and Ava kiss in bed until Ava stops and says they can’t do this. Johnny asks why not since it felt great to her. Ava points out that she’s old enough to be his mother while Johnny remarks that he’s always been mature for his age. Ava worries that EJ would flip. Johnny doesn’t care how he’d react after how he treated them. Ava says she doesn’t either but she doesn’t want to come between them. Johnny says that’s great because EJ already did that himself so she has nothing to worry about.

EJ questions how long it takes to say goodbye to a guy who has been dead for four years. Li points out that today was especially emotional for Gabi because he proposed to her. EJ mentions that Anna and Tony told him, so he offers his condolences. Li decides he will wait for Gabi outside. EJ brings up Gabi still wearing her wedding ring around her neck, so he must be aware that her heart still belongs to Stefan.

Gabi says she can’t believe Ava was right all along that she saw him alive as she believes he is Jake. Stefan questions why people keep confusing him with this Jake guy and points out having the same birthday, so he asks if he’s his twin brother. Gabi doesn’t understand and asks what he’s saying. Stefan declares that he’s not Jake, he is Stefan DiMera.

Stephanie tells Alex that only an amateur buys in to his own PR, warning that he’s next in line to be cancelled if he keeps up. Stephanie reminds Alex that their relationship will not ever extend beyond business. Alex explains that he was just offering to buy her a drink as a thank you for a job well done, not asking her to go to bed with him. Stephanie says she started out on the racing circuit, so she is well versed in men like him, who think they can have whatever and whenever they want. Stephanie warns Alex to read the Titan handbook on sexual harassment because it’s not acceptable to ask a subordinate out on a date. Alex apologizes for overstepping and says he’s just never felt like this before about anyone. Stephanie argues that feelings have to go both ways. Stephanie tells Alex that his attempts at charming her in to changing her mind about him is wasting their time and dangerous to his career because if he continues to overstep, they won’t be able to work together.

Chanel questions Paulina not liking her cookies and asks what’s wrong with them. Paulina says it’s that they say “Vote for Abe” and she’s been so busy but she’s been meaning to call. Abe and Paulina then reveal that Abe is not running for Governor, Paulina is.

Ava questions Johnny being over Chanel. Johnny argues that Chanel made her choice and is with Allie now, while he needs to move on. Ava then suggests maybe she’s not ready to move on after her husband just died a few weeks ago. Johnny apologizes for being insensitive and doesn’t want to push her in to anything she doesn’t want to do, but he is attracted to her and he thinks that she’s attracted to him too. Ava admits that she’s scared that she’s losing her mind. Johnny insists that she’s not crazy. Johnny suggests EJ could be behind it since he has a history of gaslighting women. Johnny feels there has to be an explanation for why she keeps seeing Jake but asks her not to hold back to protect him.

Li tells EJ that he has no illusions about Gabi’s feelings for Stefan. Li acknowledges that Stefan was the love of Gabi’s life so far, but she is ready to move on. EJ says she’s at least persuaded him that she is. Li questions EJ feeling threatened by Gabi’s commitment to him. EJ says he’s not in the least and is just warning him that Gabi’s commitment to him might not be so whole-hearted. Li warns EJ to mind his own damn business. EJ argues that Stefan was his brother while Gabi and Li are on a mission to consolidate power at DiMera, so it is very much his business. Li argues that they are not on a mission and they are very much in love. Li shouts that Gabi’s heart belongs to him, not EJ’s dead brother.

Gabi argues that it’s impossible because Stefan had his heart taken out of his chest and she begged Dr. Rolf to help, but he said that Stefan was beyond help. Gabi argues that she donated Stefan’s heart to Julie. Stefan reveals that Dr. Rolf gave him a new heart and had him on ice for four years. Gabi argues that he’s wearing Jake’s suit. Stefan says that Kristen brought it to him. Stefan assures that suit or not, he is Stefan. Gabi asks if it was him that Ava saw earlier and not Jake which he confirms. Gabi can’t believe Stefan is alive and really back. Gabi then grabs Stefan and kisses him.

Alex promises to never offer to celebrate anything with Stephanie ever again. Stephanie agrees that they should celebrate Titan’s successes separately. Stephanie mentions having another client to see. Stephanie says she loves her job most of the time. Stephanie asks if they are clear on where they stand. Alex confirms they are as she exits the office.

Chanel excitedly asks where Paulina running for Governor came from. Paulina informs her that they met with Stephanie. Abe adds that Stephanie believes Paulina would be a stronger candidate. Abe says that this was Paulina’s dream all along, so they decided she should go for it. Paulina hopes she can count on their support. Chanel says of course. Paulina assures they will pay for all the cookies but she’d like to place an order for 10,000 more that say “Vote for Paulina”. Allie jokes that they are going to need a bigger cookie.

EJ remarks that Li’s defensiveness about Gabi’s devotion to him leads him to believe that he’s not so sure of it himself. Li suggests they limit their conversation to business. EJ calls his latest hire an idiotic mistake. Li says that Ava is as shrewd as they come. EJ argues that she’s also off her rocker and hallucinating her dead husband. EJ adds that it’s obvious to anyone with half a brain that Ava and Jake’s marriage never occurred. Li responds that he and Gabi stand by Ava, as does Johnny. EJ says Johnny’s judgment is clouded. Li argues that EJ underestimates Johnny as he does anyone who isn’t blindly loyal to him. Li decides he should go check on the CEO of EJ’s father’s company because he and Gabi have so much to celebrate.

Stefan pulls away from Gabi and questions why the hell she kissed him. Gabi argues that she is his wife and asks if he doesn’t remember her. Stefan says he does remember her. Gabi reminds him that she loves him but Stefan says he doesn’t love her and can barely stand the sight of her, leaving Gabi confused.

Ava tells Johnny that he’s very persuasive, sweet, and supportive and she really does like him but they are not going to happen for many reasons. Ava says she needs to at least try to heal from losing Jake and needs to keep her life as simple as possible right now. Johnny says he’s trying to understand. Ava says that Johnny defending her against EJ and the way he’s been pursuing her helped her ego and lifted her spirits, so he’s helping her heal. EJ then knocks on the door, asking if Johnny is in there, arguing that he missed Jake’s service. EJ then walks in, shocked to find Johnny in bed with Ava.

Chanel and Allie sit together in the town square. Allie questions if they are really about to go back in to the Bakery to make 10,000 more cookies. Chanel talks about Paulina having to pay more for bigger cookies and says she’ll straighten that out with her in the morning. Alex approaches and says they are just the pair he was looking for because he needs their wisdom, guidance, and relationship advice. Chanel asks what he needs all that for. Alex responds that they need to help him get over Stephanie Johnson.

EJ screams at Ava to get up, get dressed and get the hell out of his house. Johnny tries to explain but EJ says he knew exactly what this was and calls Ava a scheming slut. Johnny warns him not to talk about her that way. EJ argues that Ava is using Johnny to get to him. Ava tells him not to flatter himself. EJ brings up questioning her marriage to Jake, her sanity, and her ability at DiMera. EJ accuses Ava of taking his son to bed for revenge. Johnny argues that he doesn’t understand but Ava says he does. EJ orders Ava to get out of his house now. Ava responds that she will because the sight of EJ makes her sick. Johnny reminds EJ that if she goes, he goes which EJ calls a win-win.

Gabi argues that Stefan has been through a trauma and is confused. Gabi urges him to try to remember how much they love each other. Stefan responds that he doesn’t feel that way at all. Gabi pleads with him. Li then enters the Crypt and pretends to be shocked.

Stephanie goes to see Paulina and Abe. Stephanie informs Paulina that she got her a magazine interview for tomorrow and brought her materials to prepare. Stephanie asks Abe to also participate in the interview. Abe reminds her that he’s not running. Stephanie explains that a portion of the polls showed people weren’t keen on voting Abe as Governor because they didn’t want to lose him as Mayor which means they can parlay his popularity in to a huge asset for Paulina. Stephanie calls them a political power couple which Paulina loves. Abe doesn’t want it to be about him. Paulina jokes that it won’t be with her standing next to him. Paulina tells Stephanie about how she was trapped in a very painful relationship with Lani’s father and then she met Chanel’s father and lost him, so after that she decided she was done with men and didn’t need love or the pain it brought because her business was enough. Stephanie relates to that. Paulina says that was untli she met Abe and realized just how wrong she was.

Chanel questions Alex wanting to get over Stephanie. Allie thought she was the woman of his dreams and it was love at first sight. Alex assures that’s true but that Stephanie pointed out that feelings have to go both ways and she drove home that in this case, they don’t. Chanel calls that rough. Alex assures that he understands no means no but he wasn’t used to hearing that until moving back here. Allie and Chanel joke about how anyone could say no to him. Alex says he has no idea how to get over Stephanie but says he never should’ve listened to Sonny when he told him to find love and settle down. Alex says he was great having casual encounters with wonderful women with no feelings to complicate things, but now he has all these feelings for Stephanie and she wants nothing to do with him. Alex questions how to stop obsessing and not feel so needy or pathetic. Chanel suggests Alex go back to his old ways for just a hook up with no strings to get his mind off Stephanie. Alex agrees that might work. Alex then asks if there’s any chance Allie and Chanel might want to volunteer to help him through a tough time with some no strings fun.

Li pretends to think Stefan is Jake. Stefan questions when people are going to stop calling him Jake. Gabi says she knows it’s hard to believe but this is Stefan. Li calls that impossible. Gabi explains that Stefan told her that Dr. Rolf brought him back from the dead. Stefan asks if Li is still with DiMera which he confirms. Stefan jokingly asks who the CEO is this week. Li responds that Gabi is and she’s doing an amazing job. Stefan notices Gabi’s ring and asks if that’s an engagement ring. Li then confirms that he and Gabi are getting married.

EJ comments that Ava has already started packing. Ava says she can’t wait to get out. Johnny feels the same. EJ says good riddance to the both of them and storms out of the room. Johnny apologizes to Ava. Ava says it’s for the best and that she’ll just get a room at the Salem Inn. Ava asks what about Johnny since this is his family’s home. Johnny assures that EJ needs to realize he can’t just bully people and get away with it. Ava asks where he’s going to go. Johnny responds that he’ll go to the Salem Inn with her. Ava argues that they just met a couple weeks ago. Johnny feels they had an immediate connection. Ava reminds him that they can’t be. Johnny says he’ll sleep on the floor and it doesn’t have to be about sex but jokes that he kind of loves that EJ thinks it is. Ava admits she does too. Ava doesn’t think it’s the right time for them to move in together. Johnny says they can start with just one night. Johnny tells Ava that he didn’t try to sleep with her to prove a point to EJ but because he really likes her. Johnny says they helped each other. Ava assures they are just friends but says she wasn’t looking for revenge against EJ but she won’t complain about that as a benefit.

Allie and Chanel turn Alex down again on the threesome. Alex argues that they’d be doing a good deed by helping him get Stephanie out of his system and helping him through a tough time. Allie says it would maybe help get Alex out of his misery temporarily but she thinks it would be a mistake. Allie argues that just because Stephanie turned him down doesn’t mean there isn’t someone else out there for him to have a real relationship with, that shares his feelings. Chanel agrees and suggests Alex consider this a bump in the road on his way to finding that special someone. Allie suggests instead of jumping in to fun, Alex should deal with his feelings as it might be therapeutic. Alex thanks them for listening and admits he respects that they aren’t in to the threesome idea. Alex says that after meeting Stephanie, he understands the idea of wanting to be in love with one person. Alex says he’s envious of what they have and then walks away.

Stephanie asks if Paulina and Abe was love at first sight. Paulina assures it was not. Paulina says when she first met Abe, she could tell he was a catch but told herself that she wasn’t interested until she eventually couldn’t ignore what was in front of her, so she opened up and gave in and she’s so glad she did. Paulina says they have had potholes along the way but calls Abe the best thing to ever happen to her. Abe adds that Paulina has made him happier than he ever thought possible. Paulina tells Stephanie that sometimes you think you know what you want and don’t want, but as it turns out, you don’t have a clue. Stephanie suggests she share that in the interview tomorrow.

Stefan congratulates Gabi and says he’s glad to see she’s moved on and hopes they have a happy life together. Stefan goes to leave but Gabi stops him, saying she doesn’t know what Dr. Rolf did to him but they have to get him checked out at the hospital. Stefan refuses. Gabi argues that he has to remember. Stefan responds that he remembers and that Gabi needs to be reminded that he was living a happy life with Chloe Lane until Gabi came along and ruined everything.

Johnny and Ava walk in to the living room where Johnny announces to EJ that if he needs him, he’ll be at the Salem Inn with Ava. EJ can’t believe it and argues that Johnny can’t be moving with Ava. EJ calls Ava a cougar that is using him and says this is wrong on so many levels. Johnny and Ava then exit the mansion together, leaving EJ frustrated.

Stephanie has a drink at the Bistro, thinking back to Paulina’s words about not having a clue what she wants. Alex arrives and says he’s sorry as he didn’t realize she’d be there so he’ll leave. Stephanie tells him it’s okay as it’s a public place so he’s allowed to be there. Alex says it’s okay but Stephanie stops him, saying she knows that she said they should celebrate separately but since they are both here, she doesn’t see why they can’t celebrate together. Stephanie says it’s just one drink and calls it business. Alex asks if she’s sure. Stephanie tells him to pull up a stool as she’s buying.

Allie asks Chanel if she thinks Alex learned anything. Chanel thinks Alex learned it’s a bummer to get hurt. Allie adds that they don’t need a man in the bedroom to have a good time. Allie tells Chanel that she doesn’t want to share her with anyone for any reason as she could not handle that. Chanel assures she will never have to and that she wouldn’t want to share her either. Allie kisses Chanel. Johnny and Ava then approach. Johnny greets them and informs them that EJ just kicked them out so they are getting a room at the Salem Inn which surprises them. Johnny tells them to have a good night as he and Ava head to the Inn.

Gabi questions Stefan saying she stole him from Chloe. Stefan brings up Gabi trying to seduce him to get her foot in the door at DiMera which seemed to be the theme of their whole relationship. Stefan hopes she comes to her senses and wishes her luck as he then walks out. Li tells Gabi that he’s so sorry as this must be so disturbing and painful for her. Li assures her that he will make it okay as she hugs him.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: I wasn’t sure you’d still be here. It’s after hours.

Sally: Well, I’m making up for lost time. There’s no way I was about to leave just because the sun went down. In spite of everything that happened, I’m determined to end today on a strong note.

Nick: Glad to hear it.

Sally: Yeah, I’m all about forward momentum, so this is me putting 100% effort into my job. Let there be no doubt that newman media is my number-one priority. I’m gonna prove to everyone that I belong in this chair.

Nick: Yeah… about that — we should talk.

Nikki: Oh, darling, you’re back. Welcome home.

Victoria: Oh, thank you.

Nikki: Mwah.

Victoria: I got in this afternoon, but we were both so busy at the office that we didn’t even cross paths. So I thought I’d stop by tonight so that we could catch up.

Nikki: Oh, um, is there a business matter we need to take care of?

Victoria: No, no, nothing like that at all. I, um — I was leaving work, and I noticed your e-mail that you plan on being out of the office tomorrow, and I was just wondering. What’s up?

Nikki: Oh, I decided at the last minute to go to L.A. And meet with ridge and eric forrester.

Victoria: Why?

Nikki: Well, kyle has told me he is planning a surprise for summer. He wants them to renew their vows here in town because a lot of people weren’t able to go to milan for their wedding. Isn’t that romantic?

Victoria: Yes, it is — very — but what does that have to do with you going to L.A.?

Nikki: I want forrester creations to design a special gown for summer as my gift.

Victoria: But why not just have one of lauren’s fashion designers do it? Or better yet, you could consult with the team at marchetti.

Nikki: Well, because it’s a surprise. I mean, we’d never be able to keep it a secret with all those people if summer works with them all. So, forrester will do a beautiful job.

Victoria: Yes, I know. Of course they will do a beautiful job. But why do I get the feeling that there’s something else going on here?

Nikki: I-I have no idea.

Victoria: I mean, if all you’re doing is meeting with eric and ridge, I mean, couldn’t you easily do that by phone or a video call? Instead, you’re clearing your very busy schedule, and you’re hopping on a plane for one meeting. Sorry, mom, I’m not buying it. I need you to tell me the truth. What is this trip really about?

Jack: Victor, you here to say hello or just to cast a dark shadow?

Victor: [ Chuckles ] Expecting someone?

Jack: No, I’m flying solo. Care to join me for a drink?

Victor: Sure.

Jack: I know abby keeps your favorite tequila in stock. I could get the first round started, though I doubt you’re going to want to toast my latest hire.

Victor: You’re right about that.

Kyle: [ Sighs ] Mm. I am happy to report harrison was tucked away in bed. Not asleep yet, but he’s chilling out with his favorite stuffed fox.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

Kyle: What are you working on?

Summer: I am looking at the proofs from tessa’s photo shoot, pictures from after she relaxed.

Kyle: Hmm. You mean the shots taken after adam left? For someone who just started working at jabot, I am already feeling the dark cloud of his presence.

Summer: Adam drives me crazy, too, but we promised to respect jack’s wishes. That means trying to stay positive. One way to do that is to not talk about adam at all unless it is absolutely necessary.

Kyle: Especially now, when we have so much to celebrate.

Summer: We do?

Kyle: Mm-hmm. Listen. Hear that?

Summer: What? [ Chuckles ]

Kyle: Beautiful, golden silence. Our boy is upstairs in bed. Nobody else is home.

Summer: Hmm.

Kyle: We have the whole place to ourselves.

Summer: I guess we do.

Kyle: Oh, imagine the possibilities.

Summer: My mind is going all sorts of places.

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

Kyle: All we need is a little music.

[ Soft music plays ]

Summer: And a little wine. I’ll go get a bottle.

Kyle: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. There’s something I need to do first.

Summer: I guess the wine can wait.

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

[ Doorbell rings ]

Kyle: [ Sighs ] Hold that kiss.

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Kyle: Mom. What are you…doing here?

Diane: I am livid. And it’s all because of phyllis.

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Kyle: [ Sighs ] You know why I love halloween?

Diane: Summer, I hate to say this, but your mother is relentless. I swear, that woman —

Kyle: Okay, mom, just slow down, tell us what happened.

Diane: [ Scoffs ] Came across a document relating to marchetti home — A.K.A. The line that phyllis heads up. It was — it was an agreement with a subcontractor to create furniture for an outrageous sum! It sent up a huge red flag for me. It reeked of some sort of kickback scheme.

Summer: Wait, back up a minute. How did you come across it?

Diane: It was a file on my computer.

Summer: That doesn’t make any sense. You don’t have anything to do with the home division.

Diane: Exactly. Look, summer, you are not conniving like your mother. You don’t think the same way. But I knew right away what happened. Phyllis, the very savvy computer hacker, slipped that document onto my hard drive. She’s setting me up.

Summer: [ Inhales deeply ]

Nikki: Darling, please, can’t we just enjoy some time together before I leave?

Victoria: I would love that, but I just can’t shake this feeling that you’re holding something back from me. I can hear it in your voice. Mom, you’re avoiding eye contact with me. I know you very well.

Nikki: Alright, fine. Since it’s clear you’re not going to drop this, I will tell you everything.

Victoria: Please do.

Nikki: Well, I am going to have a dress designed for summer, but that’s not the only reason for my trip.

Victoria: What is?

Nikki: Diane jenkins/ I am determined to find something I can use to drive her out of town. So I am going to L.A. To confront the one person who may have some information — deacon sharpe. If you have age-related macular degeneration,

Abby: Hi! [ Chuckles ] Oh, my god, you’re early, but that’s okay. Um, that means we can spend more time together.

Chance: Honey, I’m sorry, I have to cancel date night tonight.

Abby: Why?

Chance: I have to go out of town for a few nights. It’s just for a stakeout.

Abby: Oh, can’t you at least stay for dinner? And better yet, you could leave in the morning. I mean, do you have to leave right now?

Chance: I wish I could. With this case, it’s just — it’s too important to let slide. I mean, this is an investigation of a lifetime. And it means everything to me.

Abby: Everything? What about me? What about our family?

[ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ]

Sharon: Hey, you working late? Need a little caffeine to get you through an all-night stakeout?

Chance: Actually, the opposite. I’m here because I’m not working and I’m feeling a bit restless. Things have eased up for me a little bit at work since I’ve closed all of rey’s cases.

Sharon: Oh, yeah, you’re feeling a little lost at sea, aren’t you? Especially now you’ve finished working on the ashland case.

Chance: Wow, I didn’t know it was that obvious.

Sharon: Well, it’s probably not, to most, but I know that when rey would finally finish working on a complicated case, it would leave him feeling antsy and restless and needing to find something to do.

Chance: Yeah, well, you know, I haven’t really thought about it that much. But you know what? I’m sure I will figure out what I need to do now. For now, I’ll just take some tea. Decaf, please.

Chelsea: I could use one of those, too. Mind if I join you?

Victor: Cheers, jack. Now, I spoke with adam earlier about his latest career move. I would like to hear from you why you hired him as co-ceo of your company.

Jack: Actually, that’s very simple. I needed someone, he was available, and the best person for the job?

Victor: Only adam?

Jack: I suppose I could have cast the net a bit wider, but adam and I have history. We have a friendship. I think you and I will agree that his talents are indisputable. I needed someone I could count on — a partner, if you will — and not for the reasons most people would think. I want to spend more time with my grandchildren. Jabot has always been, will always be, important to me. But lately I have learned there’s more to life.

Victor: Mm-hmm. I agree with that. Adam led me to believe that you hired him so that you could distract him from his anger toward me. Is that so?

Jack: I suppose that was a consideration, but I assure you, whether you believe it or not, I did not hire adam to get under your skin. I honestly believe, in the end, this will benefit all of us — you, adam, and me.

Victor: [ Chuckles ] Remember what I’m telling you now. Hiring adam… is a huge mistake.

Sally: I thought we came to an understanding earlier. But given the fact that you’re back here, I’m guessing things took a turn whenever you went upstairs to see your sister.

Nick: I did report back to victoria, who rightfully expected an explanation for your absence from the marketing summit.

Sally: I can only imagine what she had to say when you told her I got the time wrong and then I got hung up talking to adam.

Nick: I didn’t feel the need to give her any details. I just told her there were some extenuating circumstances that, you know, you messed up and that you’re very sorry for that.

Sally: [ Chuckles ] Well, I appreciate the kind description of what happened,

[Inhales deeply] But I doubt that satisfied victoria. Okay, well, I guess that answers my question. So, [Inhales deeply] What, is that it, then? Am I out of a job? (Christine) my son really had to be

Sharon: Here you go.

Chelsea: Thank you.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Sharon: Oh, excuse me. Yeah? Oh, sure. I can do that. I’ll see you in a minute. Sorry, that was mariah and tessa. They need me to pop up there. Um, is there anything else you need for the moment?

Chelsea: I’m great. Thanks, sharon.

[ Sighs ]

Chance: So, how was your day?

Chelsea: Uh, you know, had its ups and downs. Not gonna lie, it was rough at first; then it got better because I got to spend time with johnny and connor. Yeah, billy and I got them together at the pool.

Chance: Well, yeah, that sounds fun.

Chelsea: Yeah. Yeah, it was fun. Um… [ Sighs ] It was fun, and then I went back to my suite by myself, and I felt really lonely and really restless and actually really anxious. And I’m not sure why. I’m sorry. You told me I could vent to you about this stuff, and now I bet you’re regretting saying that.

Chance: No, not a bit. I’m glad you feel comfortable enough to be honest with me. I just hope you’re taking it easy on the alcohol, though, to alleviate the pain.

Chelsea: Yeah, I’m not gonna drink like that again for a really long time. Um, thank you for making sure I got home safely.

Chance: Anytime. You know what? I think I might be able to help you out again right now.

Nick: I didn’t come here to fire you, sally, but you’re right about one thing. Vick is losing her patience. So much so, she’s starting to look around at other options.

Sally: [ Sighs ] I mean, I know you both signed off on giving me this chance, but I know that victoria hasn’t been as much in my corner as you have. And I have no illusions about how victor really feels about me.

Nick: [ Sighs ] It’s not over yet. Alright? I believe in you. I’ve told you that many times. You’ve come up with some really great ideas that I think you should have an opportunity to execute. So I really talked up those concepts to the executive team. And you know what? I want to prove I was right. Too.

Sally: I appreciate that. It’s nice to know I have at least one senior exec pulling for me.

[ Inhales deeply ] And I have spent every minute managing the fallout from my screw-up earlier. I responded to every single e-mail that people sent about chloe making the presentation in my absence, and I personally called the top newman enterprises and newman media execs to apologize. And then I set up follow-up meetings with all of them. I’m on it. I’m doing everything in my power to salvage this situation.

Nick: Alright. I know you intend to.

Sally: But you can’t guarantee that it’ll be enough. You’re still wondering if I can get it together and be the leader that you need me to be or if I’m going to continue to let my feelings for adam hold me back.

Victoria: Mom, I can’t even believe that you would consider seeing deacon sharpe face-to-face. God, no, no. I mean, for a million reasons.

Nikki: Well, I have one very good reason to go. If anybody knows the real dirt about what diane was up to when she was living all those years under an assumed identity, it would be him.

Victoria: Well, what about talia morgan? You saw the scathing article she wrote about diane. She’s obviously aware of her sordid history. Why not point her in deacon’s direction, you stay out of it.

Nikki: No, this is personal. Deacon helped diane fake her own death, and he was instrumental in my being arrested for her so-called murder. We have a lot of unfinished business.

Victoria: All the more reason for you to stay away from him. The man is disgusting. How can you trust anything that he has to say? And who knows how it’s going to affect you, seeing him?

Nikki: Victoria, I can handle him.

Victoria: Need I remind you of your completely toxic dynamic, how he enabled you to drink, your destructive affair? I mean, mom, he blackmailed you into marrying him. The list goes on and on and on.

Nikki: That was in the past. I’m not the same person I was. I’m much stronger.

Victoria: How do you know that seeing him isn’t going to trigger some — some kind of a setback, that it’s not going to make you want to reach for a drink? Mom, please, it’s just too risky. Can you just let it go?

Diane: Thanks.

Kyle: Okay, mom, just calm down. From what you’ve told me, you can’t assume phyllis is trying to set you up. How would that even work?

Diane: I know it sounds crazy, but please just hear me out.

Kyle: Alright.

Diane: Phyllis could have planted that document on my computer and then sat back to wait for the right time to make her move. Then, she transfers it to her own computer and then pretends to discover it. All she has to do is vehemently deny any responsibility and then use those I.T. Skills to trace it back to me, proving that I’m trying to sabotage her.

Kyle: Wow. That’s — that is a lot to digest.

Summer: Sounds like a very complicated and completely hypothetical scheme.

Diane: I know. And if it were about anyone else, I admit I would seem paranoid. But from the moment your mother asked to join you at marchetti, I knew that she was coming for me. It wasn’t a question of if, but how and when. And now that time has come.

[ Sighs ] Please tell me you believe me. If you have copd,

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Jack: Not that I expected a “thank you,” but let’s get real here. You have yanked the rug out from adam more times than he can count. You asked him to run his company. You handed him the keys to the kingdom. And no sooner did you do that, though, you snatched him back away and gave him back to victoria.

Victor: You obviously don’t know the inner workings of my company, nor of my family, do you?

Jack: I do know that the pride and joy that you have in victoria and nicholas and abby is exactly what adam feels is missing in his life.

Victor: And you must understand that adam chooses to see what adam wants to see. Under no circumstances did I ever indicate to him that he’s not part of newman enterprises or my family.

Jack: Okay. How many times over the years have you and adam done this dance? Did you really expect him to graciously accept this demotion, especially after the giant press conference announcing his ascension to the throne? You left him out in the cold. Of course he walked away. What did you think was going to happen?

Victor: I never left him out in the cold.

Jack: And now he’s broken off his relationship with sally. And you know better than anyone, adam at loose ends, angry at you is adam at his most dangerous. Thank god he saw the light and accepted my job offer.

Victor: I’m afraid, jack, that you misunderstood my earlier warning, or you didn’t listen. Hiring my son adam is a huge mistake for you.

Jack: For me? Why?

Victor: He may appreciate it, but trust me, he only accepted your offer to piss me off. Now, once he realizes he cannot get a rise out of me, the job will have lost its allure. And he’ll be out of there unless he’s already fed up long before then.

Jack: And why would he be fed up?

Victor: Why the hell wouldn’t he? Who in your family likes him? Who at jabot likes him? Now you have him work with diane and phyllis. Are you serious? And by the way, what happened to you to allow diane and phyllis to work under your roof?

Jack: I allowed that for one very good reason. Kyle and summer wanted to work with their mothers. Give them an opportunity to rise above the fray.

Victor: Really? How’s that working out for you?

Jack: It’s an ongoing experiment, and we’re keeping a close eye. The bigger point here is that I agreed to that because I had faith in summer and kyle — faith in their ability to keep things running smoothly. The same faith I have in adam.

Victor: And I wish you good luck with that.

Diane: Summer, I know this puts you in an uncomfortable position, and I hate doing that. But you yourself were worried about phyllis lashing out.

Summer: True, but my mom promised not to cross any lines and to maintain nothing but absolute professionalism, just like you did. That being said, I know this is a stressful situation, so we’re going to get to the bottom of it.

Kyle: Don’t worry, summer and I will look into it. But please let us handle it.

Diane: Of course. I will leave it in your very capable hands.

[ Sighs ]

[ Voice breaking ] I’m — I’m just trying so hard to be the best mother and grandmother and co-worker that I can be. And I know I have a lot to make up for, which makes me all the more grateful that the two of you seem to understand that, unlike the vast majority of people in this town. Being on guard 24/7 is a really tough way to live. But tonight I feel seen and heard. And for that, I can’t thank you enough.

Nikki: I appreciate you being so protective of me, but I can handle myself with deacon. I’m not the same person I was back then. There’s absolutely nothing he can do to me now. In fact, he should worry about facing me.

Victoria: I really want to believe that.

Nikki: Sweetheart, please trust me. I’ve got this.

Victoria: This is really important to you, isn’t it?

Nikki: It absolutely is.

Victoria: Okay, but I have to ask one thing. Why now? I mean, has diane been causing some sort of problem for you that I should be aware of?

Nikki: No. Not yet, anyway. She keeps saying that she has changed and she should be welcomed back into our good graces. But I see right through her. She is incapable of change.

Victoria: I get it. You feel very strongly about this.

Nikki: She brought nothing the pain before. And she’ll do it again until somebody stops her. So I am ready to do whatever I have to, to get that woman out of our lives.

Chance: So, I totally understand how you feel. I have bouts of restlessness all the time. And I remember you saying that your old therapist didn’t really have much to offer you. Right? Well, mine actually have some pretty useful advice.

Chelsea: Lucky you.

Chance: Yeah, yeah, he taught me these relaxation techniques to kind of help take the edge off. Want to try one?

Chelsea: Sure. Show me the way.

Chance: Right. Well, take a deep breath. Right?

Chelsea: [ Inhales deeply ]

[ Exhales ]

Chance: Yeah, nice, right from the stomach, deep from the diaphragm, right?

[ Exhales ] And for 4. I want you to hold it for 4.

Nick: I’m not judging you. I told you, I understand how overwhelming dealing with adam can be. You never know if you’re getting the worst or best of him. And he has this unique ability to keep the people around him constantly off balance.

Sally: Even though it might take some time to work through everything that he’s put me through, I refuse to use it as an excuse, because it would be easy to just blame all of my missteps on the fact that he messed with my heart and my head. But I won’t, because I am nobody’s victim.

Nick: No, you are not.

Sally: This is way more than adam. And this is also about my own insecurities and fears.

Nick: It’s funny, sally, when I think about you, fear is the last thing that comes to my mind. Unless I’m thinking about how fearless I think you are.

Sally: [ Chuckles ] Sometimes I am. I mean, it’s crazy, but ever since I was little, I knew that I was destined for something great. That’s why I fought so hard to make a name for myself. I wanted to prove to everyone that underestimated me that I had what it takes to succeed.

Nick: Look at you now. I mean, if they could see you, they certainly would be impressed.

Sally: Unfortunately, i stumbled a lot along the way, and I was my own worst enemy. And way too often, I still am. I mean, I have an opportunity of a lifetime. And still there is some small secret part of me that believes that I’m an imposter.

Nick: You ran your own design house.

Sally: Yeah, but that’s nowhere near the scale of business that we’re doing here. And I don’t want to think about that, because obviously I want to prove myself. But I just can’t help but have moments where I just feel lost. And I don’t know if a guy like you can relate to that, but…

Nick: No, I, uh — I know how you feel. Trust me, I know exactly what that’s like.

Can a cream really

reduce wrinkles?

Jack: I understand how difficult it must be for you to see adam move on. So, for tonight, I will overlook the condescending attitude.

Victor: I’m not being condescending. I’m simply trying to warn you what you are in for. You do with it what you want. Just know that I tried to get through to my son, to no avail. I’m done.

Jack: Done?

Victor: You bet. A wise man knows when to cut his losses and move on.

Jack: I don’t buy that for one second. You live and breathe family. For you to give up on adam is like you giving up on yourself. And I don’t see you doing that even for one minute. You may be too wounded to see it right now, but I know better.

Victoria: So, how does dad feel about this mission of yours? He is aware of it, isn’t he?

Nikki: Yes, and he is totally for it.

Victoria: Even if he was okay with the idea, I don’t think he’d want you to be alone with deacon, even for one second.

Nikki: Well, I have a feeling I won’t be alone. I’m sure he’s going to send his security team to watch over me.

Victoria: Well, I would feel a lot better if he does.

Nikki: Darling, please don’t worry. It will be worth the effort, and we’ll all be better off for it.

Victoria: I certainly hope so.

Nikki: Now, I have a few things I have to do before your father gets home.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Of course, mom. Just promise me that you’re gonna be careful.

Nikki: I will, darling. I will. I’ll be home before you know it. Phyllis, it’s nikki. Everything is in place for my trip tomorrow, and I am going to get that information we need in L.A. I just want to make sure that you do your part and put on the pressure at marchetti.

Diane: I am so sorry for interrupting. I’m going to go now and let you get back to doing whatever you were doing before I arrived.

Summer: Don’t worry about it. You had something important to tell us.

Diane: Oh, do you think i could go upstairs and say good night to my grandson?

Kyle: Yeah, sure. He’s probably still awake. Go ahead.

Diane: Oh, good. Well, in that case, could I read him a story?

Kyle: I’m sure he’ll enjoy that.

Diane: Okay.

Kyle: [ Sighs ] So… what do you think?

Summer: You mean, about the big plot, the alleged setup? I don’t know, babe. Just seems a little clumsy to me. There’s just something about this that doesn’t ring true.

Kyle: Look, I don’t want to think the worst of phyllis any more than you do, but how else could a marchetti home file get on my mother’s computer? I mean, it must have been deliberately planted to cause her trouble.

Summer: Or that’s just what diana wants us to think.

Kyle: What are you implying?

Summer: [ Sighs ] Don’t get mad, okay? Just think about it. What if diane created the file and this whole crazy story just to throw suspicion on my mom, to get her out of the way so that she can’t undermine diane? All I’m saying is that it seems to me like there’s more than one plausible explanation for what’s going on here.

[ Door closes ]

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Chance: What are you doing up? When I left, you were knocked out.

Abby: I had a bad dream.

Chance: Oh, no. I’m sorry. About what?

Abby: It doesn’t matter. Where were you? I tried calling you.

Chance: I left you a note. Did you not see my note? Uh, oh. Duh. [ Chuckles ] I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to worry you. I was a little restless. I ended up at crimson lights. You were sleeping so good, I didn’t want to wake you up.

Abby: Oh, I am wide-awake now.

Chance: You alright?

Abby: Not really.

Chance: What’s wrong? Are you coming down with something? You sick?

Abby: I feel like something is off between us, like we’re out of sync or something.

Chance: Why? Because I wasn’t here when you woke up? I mean, come on, no. Baby, we’re fine. I mean, we are beyond fine, in fact, right?

Abby: Yeah.

Chance: There’s nothing to worry about. I love you so much. You know that?

Abby: Love you, too.

Nick: You know the truth about how ashland died.

Sally: Yes. It was an accident while you were protecting your sister. It was not your fault.

Nick: I still did it. And I’m struggling, trying to find a way to live with what happened. Desperately trying to prove to myself that I’m still the same person I was before and that it’s okay, you know, to just let go of what happened and try and move on.

Sally: It is. You’re a good person, nick, and you deserve all the good things that life has to offer. You just have to keep believing in yourself.

Nick: It’s ironic, you know, that was the exact advice I was gonna give you.

Sally: Well, how about that? I’ll tell you what. Let’s make a deal. I won’t stop fighting for what I want… if you won’T.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

How could there be no record of our divorce? We — we — we filed that paperwork over a year ago, and I brought them here to you in this office. What exactly did your attorney say? He said because the papers hadn’t been filed, according to the state of new york, that [Sighs] — That we’re still married. But that’s impossible. Nothing’s impossible. What does that mean?

[ Grunts ]

[ Breathing deeply ] Hey, marshall, wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

[ Breathing heavily ] Look — yeah, look, uh, I can’t talk right now. I’m on my way to meet epiphany. If I could just slow you down for one second, honestly, I owe you an apology. Thank you so much for meeting me. I know you got a lot going on with school starting. Mom, my dorm’s almost unpacked, okay? And you never bother me. Hm. Stop. So, is this about you going to aruba for the leadership executive seminar? You know I’m in full support. I got you. I know. And I don’t want you worrying about donna and avery because pilar is going to be with them around the clock while I’m gone. Yeah, well, I plan on spending time with them, too. And I appreciate that. But I know you have quite a few distractions.

[ Scoffs ]

[ Door closes ]

[ Door closes ] You changed your mind? You’re — you’re thinking of telling the police you weren’t with nikolas at the time of ava’s attack? I don’t know if I was or wasn’T. Okay. You were… pretty determined

not to tell the police you’ve been losing time. I’m just curious — what changed?

[ Groans ]

[ Monitor beeping ]

[ Grunting ] Help… help me.

[ Door opens, knock on door ] Ava?

[ Beeping continues ] You up for a visitor? Hm. Depends.

[ Elevator bell dings ] I don’t think you have any business here. My wife is my business, and I’ll damn well see her if I want to. If you get within five feet of ava’s room… you’re not gonna like what’s gonna happen. The judge has already reviewed dr. Rubin’s recommendation and the legal documents. Mr. Corbin, you will be in charge of your wife’s finances and medical care, and you will have her power of attorney. The judge agrees there will be no prison time so long as sasha agrees to the guardianship and commits to attend outpatient rehab and therapy. That’s very important. Sasha, once you’ve entered into this guardianship, only brando has the power to terminate it. Do you understand? Babe, this is completely up to you. It’s your choice. If it does not feel right, we won’t do it. But that’s the deal. If — if you don’t take the deal, sasha will go to prison. Yes, but she can change her plea and go to trial. Sasha, you still have options. You understand that, right? So? What do you want to do?

[ Breathes sharply ]

Tide pods ultra oxi

one ups the cleaning power of

liquid. Can it one up whatever they’re doing?

For sure. Seriously?

One up the power of liquid,

one up the toughest stains.

Any further questions? Uh uh!

One up the power of liquid

with tide pods ultra oxi. The day of the heart attack, I was scared.I didn’t know what to do. Seeing my daughter have a heart attack, it shook me.

Aspirin helps

reduce the chance

of another

heart attack by 31%.

Be sure to talk

to your doctor

before you begin

an aspirin regimen. Do you want to go say “hi” to him? Oh, no, it’s fine. Are you sure? I mean, you guys saved ava’s life together. That’s kind of a big deal. Josslyn: Okay. Okay. Okay, I got it. Good job. Good job. It’s around. Okay. Now what? You keep pressure on the wound. Okay. My suv is nearby. I parked it in the back. We’re gonna carry ava to my car. You’re gonna ride in the back and keep pressure on the wound. I’ll drive. Okay, but won’t all this movement hurt her more? We do this or she dies. Carly: Joss? Hmm? Hello? Sorry, um, no, mom. It’s — it’s all good. We– we’ve talked since everything happened, and it’s all good. Okay. All right. Yeah. Um, so, back to you…

[ Chuckles ] Is there anything else you need me to do to facilitate your trip? Sasha: According to my attorney, martin grey, this is the best way to keep me out of prison. Correct? Yes. Hey. If you want to call this off, I will back you completely. Okay? We will find another way to fight the charges against you. I know I need help. And of course, I trust you, but…

[ Breathes deeply ] It’s just not easy signing my life over. I know, sash. Brando only wants to keep you out of prison and help you heal. It’s what we all want. And this is not a permanent solution, you know? Yeah. I-if you decide to go ahead with — with the guardianship, then we will schedule a formal check-in with dr. Rubin and the hospital administrator every month to see how you’re feeling. And we will decide together when to terminate the guardianship. I won’t let it go on longer than it has to — not one day. Won’t be soon enough for me. Bring back mr. Taylor.

[ Door opens ] You have no jurisdiction over this hospital or my wife. For whatever reason, ava thinks you tried to kill her, and that concerns me. And I’m trying to figure out how to deal with it.

[ Scoffs ] I would never hurt ava that way, and I have to make her understand that. And you keeping her away from me — that’s not helping. Why don’t you write her a note? Let me tell you something. If I get any proof that you had something to do with this, not even your uncle victor is gonna be able to help you. You coming? Go to hell. One look at ava, that’s where you’re going to go. Your bp is slightly elevated. Still a little anxious, I see. [ Chuckles ] Uh, no, I-I’m just a little distracted by that…

[ Monitor beeping ] …Giant bauble on your finger there to think about much else. Oh. [ Chuckles ] Curtis proposed.

[ Chuckles ] Congratulations. So why do you sound like you’re about to recite the changes in the tax code? Are you excited? No, really, I’m — I’m over the moon about it.

[ Chuckles ] It’s just that trina told me that you blocked nikolas from seeing you, and — I don’t know, I just didn’t feel like it was the appropriate time to share the news, considering everything else that you’re going through. That’s thoughtful of you. Thank you. And it’s true — things have gotten pretty bad. Portia, I’ve even wondered… …if nikolas was the one who stabbed me. Ava, no. No, no, no. That’s horrible. I mean, no, no. To even have to entertain the notion of your husband trying to kill you — oh, he — he says he has an alibi, but I still have unanswered questions. Like what? For one… would elizabeth baldwin lie to the cops to cover for nikolas? I was talking to dante, and it’s looking less and less likely that ava was targeted at random. He thinks the attacker knew her. That’s interesting.

[ Sighs ] Just say it. You think it’s suspicious that nikolas provided me with an alibi so quickly. No, no. Just wondering if that changes anything for you. I do wonder why he leapt to my defense so quickly. I mean, he said he doesn’t believe I did it, so why would I need an alibi? Unless the alibi was meant to protect nikolas. It’s just that impossible things happen all the time. I mean, you never know what to expect. Right? Right. I suppose, uh, it was just filed improperly because I can’t imagine what else it would be. But if either of you have a theory, I would love to know what it is. Well, we’re all human. Nobody’s perfect. And I know that you have experienced the power of forgiveness with your father. Auntie, what is this have to do with marshall? Someone at that clerk’s office made a mistake, and there should be consequences. Lives were affected, right? And I’m sorry that I just can’t let this go. I know what happened, curtis. Time. It’s life’s most precious commodity, especially when you have metastatic breast cancer.

For free help,

call 1-800-quit now. Look, I’ve been wanting to say this for some time. I’m — I’m really sorry for setting you up on that fake job interview. I re– I — I should have apologized long before now. Nobody likes being fooled, right? So I felt like a sucker, and that ain’t me. But I had a lot of time to think about it, and I realized you were just trying to be a good friend to my son. Curtis has been a very good friend to me, sir. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can see that. You know, but I guess maybe if I — if I had been honest with curtis all along, you wouldn’t have gotten dragged into his mission to find out what I was hiding. Mm. So, there it is. I guess it’s on me. So no hard feelings? Yeah, man. We all good. I don’t like what you did, but I appreciate why you did it. Did it for my family. Yeah, and you were there for curtis when I couldn’t be. Okay, so I emailed you the emergency numbers for the girls’ pediatrician. Mm-hmm. Sonny already has all this information. It’s just in case he needs help from you, you should have it. Okay? Right. You know I know most of this, right? You know… this is a bad time for me to go away. It is. Because school is just starting. Ava’s still in the hospital. I mean, what am I thinking? Mom! Donna and avery are gonna be fine. They have me. They have pilar. They have sonny. Fingers crossed, I don’t need to visit them at sonny’s penthouse. If I do, oh, well. I’ll live.

[ Chuckles ] Stop stalling. What do you mean “stalling”? This is your time. Focus on you and your career.

[ Sighs ] I really want to go to this seminar. I really do. You know, I’ve just been so untethered since I lost my half of the hotel, and I’m not used to feeling aimless. So, yeah, I really want to go, and I want to get my life back on track… in every way. There’s something underneath that scares you. And I’m here to tell you… you don’t have to be afraid of me. Josslyn: Mom. Yeah? Where’d you go? Uh, just thinking about my next step, yeah. Great. Keep the focus on yourself. Everything’s covered here. I promise. Okay. All right. So, lunch is on me. Oh. And here you go. There’s a little extra just in case something comes up. Oh, okay. I have to get out of here because the day is getting away from me. All right. Here, give me a hug. Oh. I love you so much. I love you so much.Thank you for being you, okay? Have a wonderful trip.

[ Squeals ] Okay. Bye. Okay. Bye. Hey. Aren’t you supposed to get going? Yeah. I was just meeting with josslyn, giving her some, you know, last-minute information — that’s all. Yeah, but you know what? Don’t worry about it. ‘Cause pilar is at the penthouse with donna and avery. We — we got this. Yeah, I know, I know. I-it — I’m probably going to call every night before they go to bed just to check in, okay?

[ Chuckles ] I’m sure you will. Okay. Hey, um… good luck. Thanks. Nikolas seems to really love ava. I can’t see him trying to kill her. Yeah, you know him better than I do. Why do you think he insisted on making you his alibi? I told him I lost time. And maybe he couldn’t vouch for his whereabouts, either. You know, the thing is, there was a lot of people on the property that night. You don’t know what one of them may have seen or what they said to the police. I guess the concern is, the longer you hold out, the more it will cast suspicion on nikolas…or you. A situation has come up I need you to get to G.H. Right away. Nikolas told me that he was with elizabeth when I was attacked.

[ Monitor beeping ] Well, then it sounds like he has an alibi. They’ve known each other since they were teenagers. If anybody would lie to protect nikolas, it’s elizabeth. I just don’t think that elizabeth would lie to the police about something like that, ava — I really don’T. Maybe she doesn’t know she’s lying. Maybe she’s being manipulated. My husband is capable of very bad behavior. Surprisingly bad behavior. It’s true what they say, portia — the ones you love the most, they can hurt you the most. You should keep that in mind before you march down the aisle. I understand you’ve made a decision. Yes, I have.

[ Breathes deeply ]

[ Breathes deeply ]

[ Papers rustling ] Jordan, you were there when portia and I got engaged. It never occurred to you to say something then? I only just found out about it.

[ Scoffs ] It’s my fault. I am very sorry, curtis. Help me understand, jordan. You said you filed those papers. I thought I had. I signed them, and I put them in my outbox. After our conversation at trina’s party, I looked through all the mail I received when I was at the clinic. It wasn’t there. And that’s when it hit me. I was going to take the envelope to the courthouse personally, but [Sighs] There was so much going on during that time, and I got called on another matter — I didn’t go. I guess I lost track of it, and [Sighs] It probably wound up getting covered in stacks of mail and documents on my desk. Okay, so you still have the divorce papers. We can file them. Can we look for them? Thanks. – Whoa. – Jake from state farm, I really need to know. Uh, go spicy or go home, right? What? No. What if I’m not sure I have the right coverage for my car? Oh, your agent can help you make sure it’s just what you need. What if I accidentally hit a food truck and it gets covered in empanadas? You can file a claim on the app. At state farm, we’re there for your “what ifs.” Ah, thanks! Oh… mmmm. That is too spicy. That’s for you! Like a good neighbor, state farm is there.

[ Line ringing ] Drew:

Hey, you’re reached drew cain.

Leave me a message, and I will call you back as soon as I can.

[ Beeps ] Keep an eye on the docks. You make sure that the wus are sticking to their agreement. You got it, boss. Anything else? That’s it for now. Hey, sonny.

[ Chuckling ] Hey. What’s going on, buddy? Not much, man. Care to join us for dinner? Or have you already eaten? Uh, uh, no. I got some business I gotta take care of, but thank you. Any– what’s — what’s — what’s going on here?

[ Inhales deeply ] Uh… how ’bout you two catch up, and I’ll go put in an order for the table? Skipped lunch, so I’m starved.

[ Chuckles ] I know what everyone likes. So do you mind if I make the selections? Might as well get used to it. We, um, actually just reached a decision with the courts. Um, sasha doesn’t have to serve prison time. That’s great, right? Sasha: Yeah. Yeah. Excuse me. I will be right back. What’s the agreement? Well, to avoid a prison sentence, sasha had to agree to a — a guardianship. She just signed over her entire life to me. Hi. You got a minute? Sure. Good. Uh, there’s something that we need to get straight. You know, if the police are going to catch whoever did this to ava, they — they probably need accurate information. You have a good point. And, hey, look, if nikolas is innocent, he’s got nothing to worry about. Except fabricating an alibi to begin with. What’s going to happen when I tell the police that nikolas and i weren’t together the whole time? We’re both going to become suspects. You know, it’s your call. Whatever you decide, I’m in your corner.

[ Sighs ] It’s a lose-lose no matter what I do. I just need to think about it for a minute. I understand. There might be one other thing to consider — as long as ava’s attacker is on the loose…

[Sighs] She could still be in danger. Yeah, you’re right. Ava deserves to know the truth. Are you gonna tell her? I don’t actually havethe divorce papers, curtis. Wha– you just said you had them in a stack of documents on your desk. That was a year ago. Just before I wound up spending several months recuperating in albany.

[ Sighs ] That envelope’s probably long gone. Jordan, this is all really irresponsible. My caseload was immense during that time, but that’s no excuse. Those papers were important, and I should have dealt with them immediately. I’ve complicated things for you and portia, and I’m sorry. Stella: Hey, life happens. You know, you — you should understand that, don’t you, curtis? I feel terrible about it. And I promise to do whatever I can to make sure your nuptials go as planned. I’ll have my attorney issue new copies, and we’ll refile. That’s probably the fastest way. I’ll sign them as soon as you have them. You have my word. Talk to you later. Jordan, why on earth did you do that? Portia: Curtis is, uh, well, he’s certainly nothing like nikolas, so… oh, no. No, of course he’s not. I’m — I’m so sorry. I’m — I’m not feeling very warm and fuzzy about marriage, but that definitely does not mean that they can’t — frank: You can’t come in. Nikolas: I’m going in there to see my wife. There’s nothing you can do to stop me. So I said, “yeah you’re saving hundreds with the home and auto bundle from progressive, but there’s no saving that casserole!”

[ Both laugh ] I just love that word “bundle.” It’s so fun. Two things coming together like a force of nature, like it was really meant to be, y’know? Yes, yes, I do. And I’m so glad you wanna save money. Rodney, set up a bundle for jon hamm. Mm! Of course! Jon, is it still cool if I catch a ride home with you? I never said it was. But technically you didn’t say it wasn’T. It’s not. Yet. A dental tool is round for a reason.So is an oral-B. Round cleans better by surrounding each tooth. So clean, you’ll feel like you just left the dentist. Oral-B. Brush like a pro. I have moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. So I’m taking zeposia, a once-daily pill. Because I won’t let uc stop me from being me.

Zeposia can help

people with uc

achieve and maintain

remission.

And it’s the

first and only

s1p receptor modulator

approved for uc.

Don’t take zeposia

if you’ve had a heart attack,

chest pain,

stroke or mini-stroke,

heart failure in the

last 6 months,

irregular or

abnormal heartbeat,

if you have untreated

sleep apnea, or take maois.

Zeposia

may cause serious side effects

including infections

that can be life-threatening

and cause death,

slow heart rate,

liver or breathing problems,

increased blood pressure,

macular edema,

swelling and narrowing

of the brain’s blood vessels

and increased risk of

pml–a rare brain infection

that usually leads to death

or severe disability.

Tell your doctor if you

are pregnant or plan to be.

Don’t let uc stop you

from doing you.

If you’re living with moderate

to severe ulcerative colitis,

ask your doctor about

once-daily zeposia. I’m aline and I live in castle valley, california. My husband, barney, and I have been married for 32 years. I think the most important thing in life is to stay healthy.

Keep it quilted with

Now, if you don’t leave, I will have G.H. Security escort you out. Call them. You have no idea what I’m capable of. Is there a problem here? I know I didn’t just hear you threaten my fiancéE. My wife has been badly injured, and they’re keeping me away. What would you do? Well, the way I understand it, she doesn’t wish to see you. Ava’s blood pressure was spiking. That’s why I came out here.

[ Sighs ] You hear that? So, do you wish to pick a fight in the icu just to convince ava that you care? Look, the police are already on their way, okay? So if you don’t want them involved…

[Whispers] I suggest you leave. This isn’t over. Let’s go.

[ Sighs ] I’m gonna go check on ava.

[ Sighs ] Are you doing okay? Do you want to give you something to — to help you settle down?

[ Inhales deeply ] Well, you know, I doubt it would matter. I — I don’t think I’m gonna get any sleep now. You were furious with me, and you had every right to be. Why on earth would you take the blame for me? I’m not excusing what you did.

[ Sighs ] I know taking those papers was way out of line. I’m surprised you would do something like that. It’s so unlike you. But curtis has moved on. I don’t see any reason to undo all that progress now. But still, I — I can’t let you take the blame for me. You’re not. I volunteered. Curtis will be mildly annoyed with me, but he’ll accept it was an accident. I’ll sign the papers, he and portia will get married, you’ll officiate, and everything will be all right. I just don’t see any reason to cause problems between you and curtis or you and portia.

[ Chuckles softly ] I meant what I said when I told curtis that you are still family.

[ Chuckles softly ] And you always will be. Thank you, again, for helping me find avery’s bracelet the other day. It was an adventure. Yes. It — it wasn’t quite as heroic as saving ava’s life, but you stepped up. Literally.

[ Chuckles ] I’m grateful. You’re welcome. I judged you…hard. And that’s really embarrassing because I hate judgy people. So, basically, that makes me a hypocrite. I didn’t make the best first impression.

[ Chuckling ] Yeah, well… I still think that you’re an idiot to work for sonny. Duly noted. Yeah, well, I figured you’d say something like that, but believe it or not, I’m not telling you this because I despise him. I’m telling you this because sonny wrecks people… …and I don’t want you to be one of those people. Just because I don’t take your advice doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate you giving it. I didn’t — I didn’t tell anybody, um, about you helping me out the other night. Not even cam. Your boyfriend? Yeah. It’s just really complicated to explain, so… I would appreciate it if you kept that just between us. Can you do that for me? I’m sure being sasha’s guardian is not easy for either of you. You know what? You’re gonna do right by sasha. You know that. Thanks, sonny.

We all go, why not enjoy

the go with charmin. You’ve been quiet since that little dustup with nikolas.

[ Sighs ] Yeah. I’m okay. Are you? Oh, I’m highly annoyed.

[ Scoffs ] But I don’t even know why I’m surprised by another one of nikolas cassadine’s little stunts. But at least my strong, handsome fiancé showed up when he did.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ] Everything’s fine. Oh, by the way, did you talk to your attorney about the divorce papers? Yes. That’s, uh, actually why I came here to talk to you. Apparently, there’s no record of the filing. How is that even possible? Babe, I wondered the same thing. So I went and talked to jordan. She said she thought she’d filed it, but as it turns out, she’d forgotten, and the paperwork must have got thrown away when she was at the clinic in albany. Wait, wa– [ Chuckles ] So you’re telling me that you’ve been married to jordan this entire time? Looks that way. But, baby, don’t worry.

[ Sighs ] Don’t worry. Okay? The attorney is expediting papers as we speak.

[ Sighs ] Well, that’s a relief, I guess. Uh. [ Scoffs ] Isn’t it? Babe? Uh, no, yeah. It is. It is. Definitely. Okay, something else is going on. Something is obviously still bothering you. Just tell me what it is. It’s jordan’s story — just doesn’t add up. And it reminds me of — it reminds me of how she dragged her feet to sign those papers in the first place. It means the world to me that you feel this way. I consider you family, too, stella.

[ Chuckles ] Who’d have thunk it?

[ Both chuckle ] I know what it’s taken for us to get this far. We had to work hard for our relationship. But I have grown to admire, respect, and care about you, jordan. And not just because you tj’s mother, but because of the wonderful person that you are.

[ Sighs ] And now, while I’m still happy for curtis and portia, I hope that you and i can continue to be in each other’s lives. I’d really like that. Besides, I don’t have a lot of family. We’re not all lucky enough to find lost cousins in england. Well, you know what? If you want to know more about your family, you should try a dna test, too. Uh, maybe I will. What was the site you used? I’m going to forward you the email that they sent with my results. Aside from that error saying I had another relative here in port charles, they’re fantastic. You — you gonna follow up? ‘Cause you never know what you’ll find.

[ Chuckles ] Dinner order’s in. Hey, hey. I figured we’d start with dessert first. Something fun and sweet to perk up the mood. Yeah. Where is everybody? Uh, sonny stepped away, and then, um, uh, sasha had to take a moment for herself, so she went to the ladies’ room. I hate that it’s come to this. Yeah, me too. But I am gonna do everything in my power to show sasha that she has the strength and that I have faith that she can get through this. What? What? Can’t a mother admire her son? Brando, you’ve become such a good man. I know we’ve had our differences — yeah, that’s one way of putting it.

[ Chuckles ] I know. I… handled a lot of things badly.

[ Sighs ] But despite my mistakes, you overcame your struggles and grew into this big-hearted man who not only looks out for his wayward mother, but all the people you care about.

[ Voice breaking ] I’m sorry I wasn’t there for you when you needed the support you’re giving sasha. And I’m so grateful to you for letting me back into your life and letting me be part of the family that you’re building.

[ Chuckles ] And I’m just so damn proud of you. I’m proud of you, too, mom.

[ Sighs ] And, listen, the past — that’s the past. I really appreciate you stepping up for sasha. I mean, you helped get us through our darkest times. I’m so glad you’re in our lives.

[ Sighs ]

[ Mouths words ] I love you, mom.

[ Whispering ] I love you. Sonny: Sasha? Hi. Brando, he, uh, told me about the guardianship. How you feeling about that? I, um, I can’t even describe it. It’s — I love brando, and I trust him. But I feel like an intruder in my own life. You know, your circumstances are — are different than mine, but I gotta tell you something — I’ve felt that before. I get it. You just gotta be — you gotta be strong. You gotta believe in yourself. You know [Sighs] Brando came into my life… …late. But he’s — he’s — he’s family, you know? And if he’s family, that means you’re family. And I want to let you know that if you need anything ever in your life… …I’m here for you. Thanks, sonny. Well, it looks like she got some [Laughs] — A lot of desserts and stuff, right?

[ Laughs ] You want some? Let’s do it. All right. Yeah, I hear what you’re saying. You talking about giving people — giving people time, not pushing them too fast. It’s just hard to know. Like, are you giving somebody time to figure things out, or… are you waiting too long? Like, what if you miss out on something amazing? I don’t know. I don’t know. If something’s meant to be, there’s always a sign. Mm. Hell, I’m glad I was finally able to see my sign before it was too late. Late. Man, I gotta bounce. Epiphany should be off by now. Okay. See you around. Yeah, definitely. You can count on that. All right. Okay. Good talking. You, too.

[ Cellphone vibrates ] Um, I’ll make this quick before I lose my nerve.

[ Breathes sharply ] There’s something you need to know. What’s that? I can’t guarantee that nikolas was with me when you were attacked. Why wouldn’t you know that?

[ Monitor beeping ] It’s, uh — it’s complicated. Is it? Did you lie to the cops or not? No. No, no, no. We were together, just not the entire time. Nikolas’ whereabouts can’t be fully accounted for. Were you just going to sit on this? Elizabeth was hoping to gather more information before amending her statement, but she thought you should know now. Although, it does seem like you have more than adequate protection. I just want you to be safe. But I would appreciate if you can give me some time so I can figure out all the facts. Well, it sounds like there’s a lot more to the story. I — I hope you find it. Thank you. Take care. You, too. Feel better. Oh, um, would you send frank in, please? You wanted to see me? Yeah. I need you to do something for me. (Vo) when you live with moderate to severe crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, your day can be full of reminders of your condition. Never knowing.

Infusion and serious allergic reactions can happen during or after treatment. Entyvio may increase risk of infection which can be serious. Although unlikely, a risk of pml, a rare, serious, potentially fatal brain infection cannot be ruled out. Tell your doctor if you have an infection, experience frequent infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. Liver problems can occur with entyvio. In clinical trials, entyvio helped many people achieve long-term relief and remission. Ask your doctor about entyvio.

Hi. You reached

I’m sorry I missed your call.

Leave me a message,

and I’ll call you back.

[ Beeps ] Carly, hey. I’m — I’m sorry I missed your call. I’m here. All right? I’m here whenever you can talk. What? Come on.

[ Rumbling ] Flight attendant:

Attention.

The captain has instructed

all passengers

to secure your loose items

and make sure your seatbelts

are securely fastened.

[ Passengers murmuring ] Flight crew, prepare for

an emergency landing. I’m looking to clarify some test results. Initially, there was a match that was supposedly a close relation, but it disappeared. I’d like to find this person. Woman: We’re not allowed to disclose

our customers’ personal information. This is a procedural question. How is it possible that there was a match and now it’s gone? Is that a glitch in your system? I assure you, a glitch like that wouldn’t happen. Then how did the match disappear? The only reason a match

would disappear

is if the person withdrew their identity from the ancestry database. I’m sorry. Sorry. My patient is now fine and resting comfortably.

[ Sighs ] Still thinking about those divorce papers, right? Something doesn’t feel right. What do you mean?

[ Sighs ] Jordan wouldn’t forget something like that. And the idea that — that — that the police commissioner’s paperwork would be removed or thrown away, I find highly unlikely. Yeah, I see your point. But the question is, why would jordan tell you that if it’s not true? Maybe jordan made sure those papers weren’t filed. -[ Sighs ] -I think that went better than expected. I’m not sure how much time we bought. This partial memory I’ve been having is at the root of everything. I need more information on it and the blackouts before I go to the police. How do you plan on getting to the bottom of things? I think I know what I have to do. Sonny: Tiramisu. I love it! Here you go. Mm-hmm. Thank you. I have no intention of telling your boyfriend or anyone else about our little dumpster-diving adventure. Thank you for understanding. Um, so… so, we’re good?

[ Thunder rumbling ] We’re good, joss.

[ Rumbling continues ]

[ Beeping continues ] Thank you, frank. You can step outside and close the door. I need to have a chat with my husband.

[ Thunder rumbling ] Uh, I need to step out for a second. You gonna be okay? Hurry back, though. Okay. You got it.

[ Chuckles ] Mmm. Cherry?

Zende: I didn’t think you had time this morning, so i didn’t schedule a fit model.

Paris: Oh, I’m always happy to help out.

Ridge: So, that’s the second one, right?

Zende: Yeah, yeah. I made the changes that you requested to the neckline.

Ridge: Oh, okay, now– I can see it now. You– you want the eyes to come up. It’s looking good.

Ridge: Thank you. It was your suggestion.

Thomas: Is everything all right?

Ridge: Yeah, it’s just the latest addition to a collection. Nice job.

Thomas: You just seem a little distracted. What’s going on? Or can I guess?

Brooke: You can see why I’m so concerned.

Hope: Well, I want douglas to come home just as much as you do.

Brooke: And where is he, honey? You are his mother.

Hope: He’s enjoying his time with thomas. I– I think it’s good for them.

Brooke: Do you really believe that?

Hope: Well, I don’t think–

Brooke: You can be honest with me, hope. Are you just trying to avoid a confrontation?

Hope: Well, I don’t believe that a giant custody battle benefits anybody.

Brooke: Including ridge and me? Honey, the last thing you should be thinking about is how any of this would affect my marriage. You aren’t, are you? Your focus needs to be on douglas and what’s best for him.

Hope: It is. And I’m also aware of how this situation could cause a lot of conflict for everybody, and i don’t want that.

Brooke: So you’re just gonna let your son stay with thomas indefinitely?

Hope: You know that douglas asked to spend more time with his father, and there’s already enough tension as it is between our families, and I don’t want to make it worse. Especially knowing how taylor feels about ridge.

Ridge: Everything’s fine. Why are you asking?

Thomas: I’m just saying I– I– I know that brooke doesn’t exactly like the idea of douglas over at granddad’s with me, so…

Ridge: I– I don’t really care if she likes it or not. I like it. I like that you guys are spending time together. The family’s doing great. Business is doing great. Good young designers. You did amazing fixing this. And thank you, paris, for stepping up.

Paris: Of course.

Thomas: All right, I’ll see you guys in a minute. I got to talk to him about something.

Ridge: What’s up?

Thomas: You know how you, uh, you say that you just love spending time with douglas?

Ridge: I do.

Thomas: Oh, he loves spending time with you too. So, I was thinking that maybe– maybe you should come back, come back over to granddad’s, stay for a little while.

Steffy: If it seems like I’m pushing, I am.

[ Taylor laughs ] I’m sorry, I’m just not gonna let up. You and dad are meant to be together.

Taylor: Honey, if we’re meant to be together, then it will happen. But we love our very well-meaning and persistent children all the same.

Steffy: It’s gonna happen, mom.

Taylor: Did I say “persistent”? I meant “relentless.”

Steffy: The life you want is still possible. Please just don’t give up on your future with dad. You know why I love halloween?

Thomas: So, what do you think?

Ridge: What do I think? Waking up at dad’s house, having cereal with your son, and watching cartoons? I– I can’t think of anything better.

Thomas: I remember you doing that with me.

Ridge: I remember that too. And now you get to make these memories with your own kid.

Thomas: Yeah, and I want you to have some of those memories too.

Ridge: And I will have them, and I will come on weekends and holidays, barbecues, sitting by the pool, but I’m married to brooke, and some people frown upon husbands not living with their wives.

Thomas: Okay, but before you went back to brooke’s after she broke her ankle, you were living at granddad’S. Who’s to say you couldn’t come back and live there again?

Ridge: Thomas, come on, man.

Thomas: Look, there– I did not realize how much i was missing with douglas. I’m– I’m– I’m having these moments with him, and it’s like, yeah, I had time with him before. We would– we would hang out, and we would have these, you know, sleepovers, but it wasn’t the same. I’m not there with him-with him every day. I’m not being a father to him. And in that, I’m being able to create these wonderful memories day in and day out. And it’s beautiful, and I want you to be more of a part of it.

Ridge: I do too, but moving in with you guys is not practical.

Thomas: Okay, but sometimes the best things in life aren’t exactly practical. I can think of, like, you know, uh, playing with paint in granddad’s living room. Not practical.

Ridge: No, that got messy really quick.

Thomas: Yeah, yes, it did, but douglas loved it. And he loves it over there. He loves walking through grandmother’s garden, and he gets to– to see about the family. He loves learning about it, right? And I’m sure that you have little nuggets you could give him about the family history, about that property, things he would never know, that no one else knows. Think about it. It’s four generations of forrester men in the same household. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Brooke: Honey, you don’t have to worry about me.

Hope: Well, I’m glad to see you’re feeling confident.

Brooke: Don’t misunderstand. As long as taylor is out there stirring up trouble, I have to be on guard. And so do you. That woman has an agenda. But I certainly am not going to be disturbed by that kiss. I mean, ridge was in monaco, and taylor was there, and yes, they just found out that their daughter got her husband back, so they were elated.

Hope: Did they have to kiss?

[ Brooke sighs ]

Brooke: Taylor will take advantage of every second she can to come between ridge and me. But I am not insecure, and i definitely am not naive. I am very well aware of the fact that taylor is still very much in love with my husband.

Taylor: Well, thank you for your unfailing support.

Steffy: I mean it. I wouldn’t be so adamant if i wasn’t sure it could happen.

[ Taylor sighs, chuckles ]

Finn: I’d listen to her, taylor.

[ Laughter ] I mean, she hasn’t led me astray yet.

Steffy: It’s true.

Taylor: Aww.

Steffy: I love you.

Finn: Love you.

Steffy: I love you. Have a good day at work.

Finn: I will.

Steffy: Bye.

Finn: See you, taylor.

Taylor: Bye. Have a good day.

Steffy: You deserve to be this happy and hopeful.

Taylor: Who says I’m not? I love my work. I love my kids, my grandchildren. I’m happy.

Steffy: Okay, but nothing compares to the electricity you felt in monaco after you and dad kissed. Boom.

Taylor: Boom, okay, but, you know, it was just a– it was just a moment of– of joy and relief and…

Steffy: Mom, what are we talking about? It was more than that. Yes, you were relieved, but you can’t deny it. Mom, I can see it every time you think about when you two kissed.

Taylor: Because that kiss hit different in monaco. It just did.

Steffy: Because?

Taylor: Because your dad and I are learning who each other are again, and, I don’t know, I mean, we’re– we’re– we’re totally different people now, but– but when we kissed, it was like that old connection just came back. I’ll never forget it.

Steffy: Neither will dad. Because you and dad love each other. Nothing’s ever gonna change that. Not even brooke.

Tide pods ultra oxi

Taylor: Yes, I love your father, and he loves me, but to– to have a future with him is a very different thing and–

Steffy: Mom, come on.

Taylor: No, would I love it? Yes? Would it be beautiful? Of course. I– the man makes me so happy. Like, even in his grumpiest and grouchy days. Like, no one brings me more joy and laughter than he does.

Steffy: Then, joy and laughter is what you’re gonna get.

Taylor: What?

Steffy: We’re gonna make it happen, mom.

Taylor: Steffy–

Steffy: We are. I love you.

Taylor: Love you.

Ridge: Well, thomas, you make a good point.

Thomas: You’re considering it.

Ridge: I’m– I’m considering showing douglas the best places to climb and the best places to hide, of course.

Thomas: You know, granddad mentioned that you and thorne built, like, a– it was, like, a tree fort or something. It was next to the tennis court, yeah?

Ridge: Me and thorne? Thorne can’t build anything. It was me. I built it. And when it was finished, felicia and kristin just took it away from us.

Thomas: See? This is what I’m talking about. These are the kind of stories i want douglas to hear.

Ridge: And he will hear them. I don’t have to live with you to tell him stories.

Thomas: But if you did, it would be epic.

Ridge: It would be epic, but I don’t think brooke would be on board with it.

Thomas: I’m thinking about douglas, and I’m thinking about granddad. I’m thinking about you and me. All of us, when we come together, it’s incredible. We have this– this wonderful camaraderie as a family. We have these beautiful moments, and it’s incredible, but it’s exactly like it was when you– when you kind of came home. When you were living at steffy’s, you were– you were there with mom, right?

Ridge: You’re making it sound like that was a vacation. That’s not what that was.

Thomas: No, I’m not saying it’s a vacation. I’m just saying that it– it was a home that you deserved to be in. It was this beautiful place there with mom. She– she cultivated a wonderful environment. I saw you laughing with her. She brings this joy out of you. Steffy saw it too. Okay? You guys are incredible together. That’s– that’s who mom is. I mean, she brings people in. She brings them together, and she– she makes them feel heard. They– they feel comforted when they’re around her. It is her superpower. And it happens to all of us. I want you to think about that, because– ’cause you do get that way when you’re around her. You– you– you have this joy in you, and it’s wonderful to see. But when you leave here, what are you leaving? What are you– what are you going to? Are you leaving to go to a place that is full of joy and fun? Or are you going to a place of anxiety and drama?

Hope: Look, I– I didn’t mean to bring up a sore subject.

No, I– I can’t let taylor get to me. I have to have faith in our relationship. Ridge and I can handle anything.

[ Inaudible ]

[ Inaudible ]

Steffy: Zende sent his designs down to cutting?

Ridge: Uh, yes. Yes, all approved and ready for production.

Steffy: All right, on to the next. Fashion moves just so quickly.

Ridge: Like my beautiful daughter. How are you?

Steffy: I am fantastic. Finn’s home. The kids are thrilled. My mom’s here. Douglas is living with thomas. The only thing that would make me really happy is if my father woke up and realized his true love is my mom.

Ridge: Um… dry skin is sensitive skin, too.

Hope: You’re right to be cautious.

Brooke: But I shouldn’t be paranoid or overreact.

Hope: Well, you’re definitely not doing that. I mean, taylor loves ridge, and she’s trying to get him to choose sides.

Brooke: Taylor and steffy say that I’m doing that.

Steffy: Mom, you’re trying to save your marriage, so, yeah, no, I don’t think that’s the same thing, not even close. And besides, taylor and steffy, they– they’re always trying to make it about logans versus forresters, but really, they’re just out to get ridge.

Steffy: The life you want is

still possible.

Ridge: Well, that was

unexpected.

Taylor: Was it?

Ridge: Oh, great. You’ve been talking to your brother.

Steffy: Both know how happy you were with mom. Seems like you’ve forgotten.

Ridge: I have not.

Steffy: Then, why aren’t you doing anything about it? I just don’t want you to miss this opportunity. Our family’s finally coming back together. Not just finn and me. All of us.

Ridge: Why are you making it sound like I’m standing in the way of that?

Steffy: No, you’re not. You’re not standing in the way. Brooke is.

Ridge: Brooke is my wife.

Steffy: Mm-hmm. She’s also cheated on you with your dad and your brother and like a dozen other men.

Ridge: Brooke and I, we’ve both done things, and we accept each other for who we are and what we’ve done.

Steffy: Okay, but she still disrespected you. She’s careless with your heart.

Ridge: I know this is a– a very complicated topic for you, but I would appreciate it if you couldn’t maybe go after the woman I love. I– I don’t like hearing it.

Steffy: Hey, I get it. Okay. But you love mom. And she loves you. With integrity. And loyalty. I mean, come on. This exceptional, loving, giving person is completely devoted to you. And you thought you lost her the same way I thought I lost finn. You honestly believed that she was never gonna come back. I know that grief, that sorrow, that– that emptiness. It makes you vulnerable. And that’s how brooke drew you in. Look, a miracle happened. Finn is back in my life, and I will be forever grateful. I never want to let him out of my sight, and deep down, I– I think you feel the same way about mom. Like, after what happened with finn, my life changed completely. You know, the way I see things, I now know that life is short. And it is so precious. And, really, the only thing that matters is– is love. And when it comes back, you got to grab it. That is why I am urging you, dad, to end this unhealthy cycle with brooke. Be with someone who you truly care about, who loves you unconditionally. ‘Cause I’m sorry, dad, it ain’t brooke. It’s mom.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Good morning, morning cook.

You sleep. Okay.

Slept that haven’t slept that ages. Isn’t that to,

I’m not so sure about that doc.

Listen to me, everything is

come here. Okay. Tell me, uh, what is it? We’re still in trouble. Look at this. Or if this is not giving up. Maybe it’s not what you think.

Okay. Call in the second. You get this. I mean, it I’m right here. The second I give this what happened? Did the hash knock brown dam me? How do you think I felt when I woke up and you weren’t there? I’m sure you felt scared for me. I’m I’m sorry. I’m fine. I’m fine. I should have thought. Yeah, you should have Ory is out there somewhere.

Okay. Well, I just ran. To get this happy birthday again.

Oh my God. Eric, what, what have we done so beautiful in the morning when you wake. How do you manage that? How did this happen? No, it’s more like, why did it take so long? Because it was pretty much inevitable. Oh my gosh, this is awful. No, this is wonderful. This is everything we both wanted. Hi, Eric, what, what are we gonna tell Rafe?

You didn’t go home last night. He’s probably wondering where you’ve been. I told him I was gone on a business trip. Well, God, I don’t wanna hurt him. Do I? Maybe it’s for the best? No, this is, this has got to be our secret. Maybe can never, ever find out. I’m afraid. It’s a little too late for that.

Like sand through the hour. So are the days.

Now I’d find you here. How, how I’m a cop. You don’t think, I know when people are lying to me, especially my own damn wife business trip. Really know exactly what kind of business you were up to. Dammit. Nicole, we’re married. We’re married. How could you have betrayed me? Like.

Good looking, Eric. You remember it? of worries. Listen, I didn’t really plan on sleeping with you again last night. You mean I wasn’t on your to-do list? No, I mean, I figured he’s saying happy birthday to your dad. And then I would politely say the night get upstairs to my bed. Yeah. And got into a really intense guard game, less of for hours.

And we ended up here. Yeah. It’s pretty intense

sometimes bothering you. What is it? It’s just that I broke one of my hard, fast. And what would that be? I promise myself that I wouldn’t sleep with somebody until at least a third date. And technically we’ve only been on two, but then we already have slept together. So I guess I might as well throw that rule out the window, but it’s just that funny.

You’re a priest or we were a priest and I, I can’t help but wonder. Even in the back of your mind, if you’re before, if, if maybe you, you think less of me because we’ve gone to bed together and we just met.

You what I kept saying, I didn’t wanna make my birthday a big deal. Now this celebration is going on the what? Third day, just like the Newport jazz festival. Right? Go open it.

you see, I realize that you never had a cake on your actual birthday. So yes, I was very careless to you getting kidnapped instead of. Pick it on my cake. I know within the second cake, I sneezed all over it. So anyway, the third one that’s the charm. Okay, well what could go wrong? Okay. Nothing here. I got the candle lit.

There you go. So now think Aish.

Okay. All right. I, I have to wish. Okay. I’ll wish that the next time you leave me alone in bed, you leave me note or something. So I don’t get worried sick about you. Oh,

oh, I’m so sorry. I can’t believe I did that again. What is wrong with me?

Well, don’t touch ’em. They could be poison. But they’re not well at the very least, or if it could be messing with our minds again, sweetness, you know, I better call, I better call Ray and, and tell him what your husband sent your flowers. Those are from you. Yes. Sorry, baby. I didn’t mean to scare you. I mean, didn’t you read the card?

No, I didn’t read the card cuz I was, I was too scared to look at it. I’m sorry, sweetness. I just wanted you to have your yellow roses, right? This is our thing. I wasn’t gonna let Orpheus take that away from us.

They’re beautiful. Thank you. And they smell.

Well, this is weird. And yesterday you sneeze because there was too much black pepper on your steak. And now the roses they’re coming down with a cold. Are you? I don’t have any other symptoms. Well, I’ve given you roses so many times and I’ve never seen you sneeze. Oh, come on. People sneeze all the time.

It’s nothing. so you’re not contagious. Oh, oh, I see what this is all about. You’re not concerned about my health. This is a self protection thing. No. Oh no. I just wanna make sure that it’s okay to do this. Oh,

well it’s more than okay. Except for, I need to get to work and late. Okay. Do me a favor. Uh, I don’t need you to drive me. I. Would please just call me as soon as you get there. So I don’t spend the morning worrying about you. I can do that. Oh God. Let them find orf you soon. I hate living like this.

I’m so sorry. Well, you know what? Just cupcake, but I am worried about you. You sure you feel all right. Well, yeah, I mean, I keep on telling myself I’m fine. I think maybe it’s allergies or something, but the, honestly the denials aren’t really working because I just, I feel, I, I, I can’t even describe it really.

He feel a little warm. Yeah. Maybe that means I just have a cold coming on you now. Well, you don’t know that let’s get you seen by a doctor. Oh, Roman. I’m not gonna go to the doctor because I’m squeezing and you feel warm. I think you have a fever. Okay. Cause I don’t really have the energy to fight that.

And besides I wanna find out if I’m contagious because we weren’t exactly social distancing last night. Well, don’t worry about me. I feel fine. And if I did get it, believe me last. Definitely was let’s go. Um, I’m driving myself. Thank you. No, no. Yes I am. You’re not gonna be cooped up in the car with me and we don’t know what I have and no kiss goodbye either is a cold is three days coming, three days with you and three days going.

Come on doc, you know? I deal in facts. Things are not back to normal because Orpheus is still out there. I know that, but I won’t let him control our lives. And if things aren’t normal, I’m going to pretend they’re normal and you can pretend all you want. You just need to be careful. I will, John. He kidnapped three women.

And the FBI, the police are all looking for his faces plastered all over time. It doesn’t guarantee anything. Do we have to talk about it? Can I just not think about it please? For just one day

I’m um, I’m going to work. Oh, I’m gonna go to work because that’s what I do. That’s what is normal for me? And I want normal. Do you really have to go? I do John. I must have a, a to of work piling up on my desk. Look, look, let’s, let’s talk about it. Okay. Well, I have a little discussion here. See it it’s a beautiful fall day.

I was thinking maybe we could go down to the Inn on the lake and have a quiet little lunch, and I guarantee you, when you come back here, that paperwork will still be here. It sounds wonderful. Sounds like. Letting Orias run everything now. Oh, isn’t he, you know, I’m still kicking myself when Steve and I went after Stephanie thinking ORPS was following her.

And what was she doing? She was having a meeting with Paul, but there were distracted by who John, John stop it. You couldn’t have known what was happening. You can’t blame yourself for this. You can’t do it. And I’ve gotta stop feeling afraid and you’ve gotta stop feeling. We have to let the police handle this for us.

You need to be careful. I will be careful. Look it. The hospital has so many security measures in place. They’re on the alert. They know what our F looks like, and I couldn’t be any safer than I am right there at.

You know, I really hate you when you start making all these good points. I know. I would think you’d be used to it. You at least let me drive you there and drop you off. Okay? Okay. Cause if you don’t, I know you’ll just follow me anyway. That’s a fact mm-hmm

I wanna stay I’m. Get a shower. I, you make the coffee.

If you felt like I’ve judged you. I’m sorry. No, no, no. It’s it’s, it’s not you. It’s just that I really wanted this to happen, but maybe, maybe you didn. and I don’t know you very well. And, and I was a priest. I’ve never knew a priest before. Let alone. I’m not a priest anymore.

I still live by judge. Not unless he be judged. I wanted this to happen to happen again.

Okay. Okay. It was just a dream. Yeah. But you, you were clenching your fist. It seemed more like a nightmare. Tell me about it. Uh, I, uh, I dreamt, uh, How about you?

You had a dream that something happened to me.

Brave. What, what, why are you looking at me like that? How do you know? You can tell me anything?

Okay. You’re starting to scare me if you don’t tell me what happened in the stream. I am. I’m just going to imagine something worse. I dreamt that, um,

I call you in bed with Eric.

Oh, my God. Well, you, you said you wanted me to tell you. Yeah, I, I did, but it that’s so upsetting. Yeah. Telling me it was pretty damn real too, you know?

Now, before you knew that I was there. You,

you said that he didn’t want to hurt me. And then Eric said something like for the best,

oh my God. I can still see the expression on your face when you realize that I was there an expression on his face, too.

I’m sorry, you had such an awful dream. Yeah, but why? I mean, what we brought this up, I don’t know. Don’t I don’t, you know, maybe it had something to do with something Jada said at work, the other.

And what was that?

Hey, I don’t have to work this more. Hmm. So maybe a little breakfast in bed, unless you have to go into work. I have a little. I’ve gotten nothing but time. Yeah. See, that’s why I, uh, I work for my dad. See, I get to plan kind of my own hours and work when I need to work and work. When I only, when I have to, why not?

because you job, I wouldn’t describe it like that. You don’t enjoy working at the pub. You know what I do? I do. I, I really do. I like being around my. Yeah, he’s a great guy. He’s very supportive and occasionally funny yeah, no, he is. I, I really like him even when I was in Africa the last few years, mm-hmm , there was always something to do something that mattered,

I guess, just in the end, it just seemed to matter more than my marriage, more than my life here. And. Even when I had planned to come home, even if it was just for a few days, I always found a reason to stay. Mm. Would you wanna go back to Africa? That’s a point once you fired as a priest, there’s no going back.

Oh, I see. Well, is there something here? You could do something that matters. I know there is. I mean, there’s you remember how I said, I used to help run the Horton center. Mm-hmm well, that matters, you know, but I just, it feels like I’m going backward and I wanna move forward. Yeah, I totally get that. I’ve just, you know, I always always been clear about what I wanted to do, you know, set my sides on my goals, you know, and right now I’m just so unclear and I don’t.

What I want to do, and it’s new for me,

everybody. Come on. Hey, well, I just dropped off Dr. Evans at the hospital. Mm-hmm . I wanted to take Kayla to the hospital too, but she would let me, yeah. Yeah. She like me hover. I know, I know. I know doctors wants to put her head down and move forward. Like nothing’s wrong, but we know, or his is out there and this time I don’t want to be blindsided when he decide to make his next move.

We here safe and ouch. Hey there. Hey, just letting Steve know that I’m here safely. Mm-hmm . John insisted upon driving me to work this morning. Well, I guess we can’t really blame them for worrying about us. I have to say, I feel a little hypocritical being too hard on Steve. I have been known to worry about him or the kids irrationally at times.

I know I just hate it. I feel like I’m looking all over my shoulder all the time. Just it’s taking a toll. Oh yeah. I hear that. You know, just this morning, Steve. He sent me yellow roses and I thought they were for Morpheus. I freaked out and I threw them across the room. I understand. Every time we elevator door opens, I think it’s gonna be Orpheus stepping out.

Oh, Hey, Hey, you meet again. Huh? Oh, you didn’t see enough of us. Um, actually I came by to see you professionally Kayla. Oh yeah. I mean, I. I I’m feeling too good that I was wondering if you could check me out. Sure. Uh, what’s the problem? Well, I, I, I’ve been having this low grade fever, you know, I feel kind of weird, you know, I was actually woozy coming up here.

You do look kind of pale. You look more than a little pale. Maybe you should sit down. Yeah. Never mind it. It’s actually in Roman. He’s the one that insisted that I come up here. I, I I’m sure I’m gonna be fine. No, no, no, no. Why don’t we just get you to an exam room and check you out? Come on.

Okay. Oh, Kate, Kate.

Kate Kate, can you hear me?

Why Elena thinks we should just leave everything to the police. In fact, she’d be freaking out right now. If she knew I was talking to you about this, you know, I did, I called Sean and guess what? I got nothing on or you I’m talking nothing. Well, I don’t trust the radio silence. I know he’s up to something and I don’t wanna wait around for it any more than you do.

That’s right. That’s why I think it’s time for you and I to make a move on our own right now. Yeah.

I’m gonna call Roman. It’s a great idea.

You are what. Well, you faint it. You have a slight temperature. You were woozy, obviously. Do you have any other symptoms? Oh, sorry. I keep, yeah, you go. I don’t even feel like coming on. It’s so really? What, what are you, what are you looking at? I’ve been sneezing. I blamed it on pepper or roses, but I, do you have a, do you have a temperature?

I, I do feel a bit warm are thinking what?

Kayla, Kayla. Hmm. Talking about careers. Have you ever thought about being a. Seriously, this is really good. Or scrambled eggs, perfectly done. Oh, I’m glad you like them. I do enjoy cooking, but not my passion. Well, that is, I mean, I know you love helping people. Mm-hmm well, like I said, when I was working at the Horton center, I did help in counsel.

Hmm. Would you get back into that again? If there was a need, but you know, there’s a new director, right. Here’s doing a great job. Right, right. So what did you do before you were a priest photography? Really? Mm-hmm what kind? Fashion? Yeah, I got hired for a fashioned. Nicole. She was a model actually. Oh, I’m sorry.

And there was no need for that. Why not? You know, I’m freeing. Past relationship, you know, in my opinion, it’s just not a good idea. Well, I disagree. How can we get to know each other if we don’t talk about our past? Yeah, I guess that’s true.

So, uh, when you were working with Nicole, Photographing her. Hmm. Is that when you fell in love?

Come on Rafe. Tell me what Jada said. Hmm. No, it is nothing, nothing. Well, if it triggered a dream, I think it’s something. Uh, tell me what she said. Okay. She, she just said that she thought that you might think that it was weird that she was going out with Eric. And then I told her, yeah, I told her that I thought you were fine with it.

And then she just, uh, reacted, reacted how? Just like, um, No, it seemed like skeptical what? That, I’m fine with it. Yeah. What, and then, did she tell you that I went to see Eric the other day? Uh, no, she didn’t say that. Uh, you just did.

So you went to see Eric? Well, yeah, I did. Why?

Wow.

Well, because I wanted to talk to him about something. Uh, and what did you want to talk to him about?

That was when Aquan I met long time ago. Hmm. So are you still interested in photography? I didn’t even catch. anytime I had a spare minute, I would, I would reach for my camera. Mm. I bet the landscape was amazing. It was beautiful. Oh, especially the children. So you ended up doing portraits. Oh, I probably shot every child in the orphanage, in every person in the village.

That’s wonderful. Yeah. Actually there was a, a nun, unbeknownst to me, submitted my photos into this competition and it. Oh, wow. That’s amazing. Yeah, it was great. Especially for the orphanage because they really need the money. Hey, I’d really love to see those photos sometime. How about now? Why not?

Nah, thanks man. You know, you know what I was thinking? Mm-hmm Orpheus. The only people who really cares about her is. It is grandkids. Right. And Zoe, Zoe, we know that she has got Evan’s son and her own kid in New Zealand right now. Right. Right. And, uh, Evan is on his way there with his and Jan Spears kid.

Right. Right. You know, uh, I don’t know if it’ll do any good, but I do have an old ISA contact at Wellington. I’ll give him a call. Nice. Nice. Check it out, Zoe.

You know, Zoe she’s, she’s, she’s different than the rest. Yeah. Yeah. How so? But she was always very honest about what a good job RA did with little David. Maybe we should get ahold of RA, you know, have him appeal to her as a parent. Well, at this point, I’ll take anything. We gotta get Orpheus before he strikes again.

Kayla, Kayla, what happened? You cranked it. I don’t think this is a co. Or if he

good. Oh, from hi, I’ll take you to it. Okay. Good. All right.

So why’d you go see Eric? Well, cause I was gonna offer him a job job. Mm-hmm yep. Basic black has new campaign coming up and we don’t have a photographer and you know what I thought this project would really help him get over, you know, not being a priest. Right? Yeah. You didn’t say anything about it to me, honey.

That’s because you’ve been so busy at work. Right. So it just slipped my mind. That’s all. Okay. Yeah. So is he gonna gonna take it job actually, uh, Jaya interrupted, so I never got to finish the conversation, but then I know you have to go to work. And so do I? Yeah. Okay. If I take a shower first. Okay, babe.

Use on the hot of water. Try not to

These are some of my favorites. Ooh. These are really great. Hmm. Thank you. Powerful.

Have you ever thought about getting back into it professionally? Uh, yeah, it’s crossed my mind, but you know what? There’s more photographers than the jobs, but didn’t you tell me that your brother owns a fashion company? Yeah, he co-owns it with Nicole all roads lead to Nicole. I’m sorry. Yeah, no, I’m sorry.

That was, that was a dumb thing to say. No, no, it’s okay. I understand. You know, but actually, you know what. Actually there is something that kind of crosses my mind. Yeah. Yeah. I could talk to Jack Deborah. I mean, maybe there’s some work. I could do it for the spectator. They’d be lucky to have you. Thank you.

Oh, look at the time. I better get going. Thank you for a wonderful breakfast. Yeah, anytime. And, um, I look forward to our third day. Me too. I just hope we can figure out something.

Okay. I called John he’s on his way right here. Oh, okay. Great. I’m gonna go check on PA. Thanks for your help. Roman, babe,

I knew I shouldn’t have, let you talk me into bringing you to work. I knew it that wouldn’t have changed anything. I still probably would’ve fainted. I’m just glad that Roman was there to catch him. Yeah. Thank God for that.

He’s so worried about Kate.

You know, it can’t be a coincidence that Kate and I both fainted. Well, if there were any doubt that Kate called Steve right after Roman called me and Kayla had fainted also.

Come on. Oh, thank you. Oh, Hey, are you sure? You’re okay. Yeah, for the moment, it just, it just comes over me and waves. Ugh, me too. It’s or obvious

you, uh, have any idea for this? Well, the symptoms are, uh, um, sneezing. A low grade fever and fainting. I mean, you felt fine, right? What, what about you? Fine, John too. Can’t be that contagious. Well, my guess is that, uh, he administered something or exposes to something in the warehouse. Well, that means that that kidnapping was just a setup and we were meant to find him, oh my God.

Well, with his association with Ralph. This could be anything. Well, one thing we know about Orpheus is he likes to take credit. He wants to put his signature on everything. Yeah. Like sending me those yellow roses. Yeah. I’m calling John and me and that whole crap show with the puzzles about diffusing, the bomb, which was never gonna go off.

This is a pair. Yeah. Yeah, and Orias is gonna want us to know it’s him. I bet we’re gonna be hearing from him real soon.

I hope I’m not late six minutes early. How was your evening? Nice. We celebrated Eric’s dad’s birthday. Oh yeah. Mm-hmm so how are things going between you and Eric early stages, but I think it’s going great. You know, we’re getting to know each other. It’s nice. Yeah. So did he say whether or not he is gonna take that job?

Good job. What are you talking about?

Janet, you already forget something.

I hear the, you love

Arem. Sure. You figured out by now that I’m behind what’s happening to your precious women, sweetness, stock sneezy. I’m sorry. I meant Kate. And I, I don’t wanna keep you in suspense any longer about what’s in store for them. Wait, does that sound ominous? It does. Doesn’t it.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

Days of Our Lives logo

Transcript provided by and proofread by Suzanne

Alex: Thank you, Dad. Send Sonny all my love, and tell him I’ll see him tomorrow. Bye. Great news. Sonny’s awake.

[cell phone beeps]

Stephanie: Oh, thank God. [Sighs]

Alex: Yeah, and your press release worked its intended magic. I checked Titan stock price at the bell and we rallied. We recovered all of our losses, and we closed the day at a half a point up.

Stephanie: Wow, congrats. Seems the public has a lot of trust in you.

Alex: Well, that’s thanks to you, queen of the spin. So what do you say we celebrate all this good news and grab some cosmos?


Ava: Why are you being so nice to me?

Johnny: Because I like having you around, and because I, uh… I care about you, Ava… a lot.

[soft music]


EJ: If you are here to help yourself to the free drinks and nibbles on our family’s dime, I’m afraid we don’t have much of a spread. Anna’s gone to get a bottle of champagne, but knowing her, it’ll be empty when she returns.

Shin: I don’t care about the drinks and nibbles, thank you. Just grateful to be invited to Jake’s memorial, since after all, I was closer to him, then most of the family.

EJ: Well, now that it’s over, feel free to make a tasteful yet hasty exit.

Shin: You’ll be free of me as soon as Gabi has finished saying her final goodbyes to Stefan.


Gabi: I never imagined I’d be telling you about my feelings for another man, and I, I hope you understand that as wonderful as what we had was, I needed… I needed to make a new life for myself. But, you know, even though Li and I are engaged, you are the love of my life, and always will be, but I have to let you go. Goodbye, Stefan. [sighs] Oh, my God.

Stefan: Hello, Gabi.


Like sands through the hourglass, these are the Days of Our Lives…

[soft orchestration]


Pauline, Oh, Chanel. I, um–

Abe: What– what’s all this?

Chanel: 9,999 campaign cookies.

Allie: 98. Sorry. I needed a sugar boost. Um, it is the largest order we have ever done. We started at 3:00 AM to finally get it all done, so…

Chanel: So? Does it meet your quality standards?

Paulina: Mm, I’m sorry, baby. These just won’t do.


Ava: Johnny?

Johnny: Yeah?

Ava: Oh, my God. We can’t do this.

Johnny: Oh, why not? It felt pretty great to me. Hmm?

Ava: Okay, well, all right, well, For starters, I–oh God, I am old enough to be your–God, I’d rather not say the M-word.
Johnny: Well, I have always been mature for my age.

Ava: Yeah, but, what about–what about your father, huh? He, he would–he would flip.

Johnny: Well, so what, who cares what he– I mean, after, after the way he treated you and me for that matter, I don’t know why we would– I, I don’t care what my dad thinks.

Ava: Okay. I don’t care either, all right? I really don’t. That ship has sailed, but– (sighs) I don’t wanna come between the two of you.

Johnny: Well, that’s great then, because, uh, he’s already done that by himself. You got nothing to worry about.


EJ: How long does it take to say goodbye to a guy who’s been dead for four years?

Shin: [Chuckles] Today was especially emotional for Gabi because, well, I proposed to her today.

EJ: Yes. I’m aware. Tony and Anna told me about your blissful announcement. Let me be the first to offer my condolences.

Shin: I’ll wait for Gabi outside.

EJ: Although, given that Gabi still wears her wedding ring around her neck, you must certainly must be aware that her heart still belongs to my dead brother.


Gabi: I– I can’t believe it. Ava was right. All the long shoot. She saw you. She’s not crazy. You’re alive. Jake, how would you survive–

Stefan: Why is everybody confusing me with this Jake person, huh? I see that we have the same birthday. So what, does that mean that this Jake is my twin brother?

Gabi: I don’t– I don’t under– I don’t understand. Are you saying–

Stefan: What I am saying is that I am not Jake. What I’m saying is that I’m Stefan DiMera.


Stephanie: First of all, only an amateur buys into his own PR.

Alex: Wait. So you’re saying I’m not really the next Bezos?

Stephanie: I’m saying you’re next in line to be canceled if you keep this up. So for the last time, our relationship does not and will not ever extend beyond business. Is that clear?

Alex: Yeah. In my defense, I was just offering to get you a drink as a thank you for a job well done. I wasn’t asking you to go to bed with me.

Stephanie: I started out on the racing circuit, okay? So I am very well-versed in handling men like you–

Alex: Oh.

Stephanie: Who think they can have whatever and whoever they want. I’d suggest you read the Titan manual on sexual harassment, particularly whether it’s acceptable to ask a subordinate out on a date after receiving a firm no. No spoiler alert. It’s not.

Alex: All right, all right. Um, I am sorry if I overstepped.

Stephanie: If?

Alex: I’m sorry. I overstepped, I just– I have never felt like this before about anyone

Stephanie: Feelings have to go both ways. You are aware of this, right?

Alex: Yeah.

Stephanie: And since I’m obviously not getting through to you. I will try yet again, to be clear. Your attempts at charming me into changing my mind about you are a waste of my time and yours, and frankly, dangerous for your career, because if you continue to overstep, we’re not gonna be able to work together. Understood? Say yes again, and mean it this time.


Chanel: You don’t like my cookies.

Allie: What’s wrong with them?

Paulina: Well, they say vote for Abe on them.

Chanel: Yeah, but that’s what you said. The order specifically said–

Paulina: I know, honey, and I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’ve been so busy. It must have slipped my mind to call you.

Abe: Ah, ah, you see, I’m no longer running for governor.

Paulina: I am.


Ava: Okay, fine. Fine. You don’t care what your dad thinks. All right, but we both know that you’re not over–

Johnny: Chanel made her choice. She’s with my sister now, and I need to move on.

Ava: Okay. Well, maybe I’m not ready to move on. Okay, my husband just died a few weeks ago.

Johnny: Wow. [Sighs] Wow, wow. Oh, I am so sorry. I– I’ve been insensitive. I– I look– I– I don’t wanna push you into doing anything you don’t wanna do, but I am attracted to you, and correct me if I’m wrong, but I think you’re attracted to me, too, no?

Ava: Johnny, it’s not– Look, it– I’m scared, okay? I- I am scared that I’m losing my mind.

Johnny: Ava, you’re not crazy. Look, you– you are not– no, look at me. Take my hand. Look at me. You are not crazy, I know it. Look, maybe my dad is behind all this. He’s got a history of gaslighting women. There’s gotta be an explanation for all this, for why you keep seeing Jake. But if you’re holding back to protect me, then please don’t.


Shin: I have no illusions about Gabi’s feelings for Stefan. Yes, he was the love of her life so far. But Gabi’s ready to move on.

EJ: Or at least she’s persuaded you, that she is.

Shin: And for some reason you feel threatened by her commitment to me. By her accepting my proposal of marriage.

EJ: Threatened? Not in the least. I’m just warning you that Gabi’s said commitment to you might not be so wholehearted.

Shin: And I’m warning you to mind your own damn business.

EJ: None of my business? Stefan was my brother, and you and Gabi are on a mission to consolidate power at DiMera. So it’s very much my business,

Shin: Gabi and I are not on any mission. We are deeply in love and soon to be married. Her heart belongs to me, damn it! Not your dead brother!


Gabi: Stefan? No, mm-hmm, that’s– that’s impossible because Stefan had his heart taken out of his chest, okay? I begged Dr. Wolf to– to help me, but he said Stefan was beyond help. I donated his heart! I donated his heart, and it is inside of Julie Williams’ chest right now.

Stefan: Yeah?

Gabi: Mm-hmm.

Stefan: Dr. Rolf gave me a new heart.

Gabi: [exhales sharply]

Stefan: That’s right. And apparently he had me on ice for quite some time.

Gabi: For four years– for four years? How would that even– That’s– that is Jake’s suit. How would you– I know this. I know this because I bought that suit for him. How could you–

Stefan: My sister brought it to me.

Gabi: Your sister? You mean Kristen?

Stefan: Yeah.

Gabi: Oh, my– she’s been living in Jake’s apartment. Does she know about this?

Stefan: What, that I’m alive? Of course she does. All right, but this suit? I don’t know if Kristen knows that it was my brother’s suit or not, but I can assure you, suit or no suit, I’m Stefan. That much, I’m sure of.

Gabi: So it was you– it was Stefan that Ava saw in here earlier, not Jake?

Stefan: Yeah. It was me.

Gabi: Stefan? You are alive? You’re– you’re back. You’re really– You’re back? Oh.


Alex: I promise I will never offer to celebrate anything with you ever again. Not even an office birthday.

Stephanie: Good. We’ll celebrate Titan’s successes separately as well.

Alex: Is that what you’re gonna go do right now? Celebrate separately?

Stephanie: Uh, no, I have another client to see.

Alex: Oh, all work and no play?

Stephanie: A recipe for success. I happen to love my job, Alex, most of the time. So we’re clear on where we stand?

Alex: Yeah. Crystal.


Chanel: Mama, you’re running for governor? Where did that even come from”

Paulina: [Laughs] Well, Abe and I had a meeting with Stephanie Johnson, our PR Wiz.

Abe: You see, she thinks that Paulina would be a stronger candidate.

Paulina: Well, that’s not exactly what she said, honey.

Abe: This was Paulina’s dream. It was hers all along. So we decided that she should go for it.

[Both chuckle]

Paulina: And I hope I can count on your support.

Chanel: Of course.

Paulina: Rest assured, we will pay for all of these cookies–every single one of them. [Laughs] And I’d like to place an order for 10,000 more that say vote for Paulina.

Allie: Well, too paraphrase one of my brother’s favorite movie quotes– “We’re gonna need a bigger cookie.”

Abe: [Chuckles]


EJ: [Chuckles] Your defensiveness about Gabi’s devotion to you leads me to believe that you are not so sure of it yourself.

Shin: How about we limit our conversation to business matters

EJ: Like your latest hire and what an idiotic mistake that was?

Shin: Ava Vitali is as shrewd as they come.

EJ: Oh, she may be shrewd, but she’s also off her rocker, hallucinating her dead husband, or rather her dead boyfriend. Since it’s obvious to anyone with half a brain that that marriage never occurred.

Shin: [Chuckles] Gabi and I stand by Ava as does your son.

EJ: My son’s judgment is clouded by his libido.

Shin: You underestimate him, EJ, as you do anyone who isn’t blindly loyal to you. I should go check on the CEO of your father’s company. She and I have so much to celebrate.

[soft music]


Stefan: What the hell did you do that for?

Gabi: Stefan, what are you talking about? I’m your wife. You remembered my name. Don’t you remember me?

Stefan: Of course. Of course I remember.

Gabi: Then– then you remember how much I love you.

Stefan: Well, I don’t love you. In fact, I can barely stand the sight of you.


Ava: Mm, you are very persuasive, Johnny.

Johnny: [Chuckles]

Ava: Not to mention sweet and supportive, and I really do like you.

Johnny: So does that mean–

Ava: No, no, no. You and me, Uh-uh, not gonna happen for many reasons, most of which I just told you, but mainly, it’s just because I want to, um… I need to heal, you know? Or at least try to…from losing Jake. I just think I need to keep my life as simple as possible right now. You understand, don’t you?

Johnny: Yeah, I’m trying to.

Ava: But I want you to know your defending me the way you did against your father, and the way you’ve been pursuing me, it’s– I gotta say, it, uh, definitely helped my ego.

Johnny: Good.

Ava: It lifted my spirits and, um, you’re helping me heal.

[knock at door]

EJ: Johnny. Johnny, are you in there? You missed Jake’s service, you know? Which is very poor form, considering that you arranged it. Johnny–

[tense music]

EJ: [Sighs]


Allie: Are we really going to go back into that bakery and make 10,000 more cookies?

Chanel: Well, I hope Mama understands that we’re gonna have to charge more for bigger cookies, but I’ll straighten that all out with her in the morning. In the meantime, we should probably figure out what–

Alex: Just the pair I was looking for.

Chanel: Hey, Alex.

Alex: Hey.

Chanel: What’s up?

Alex: Well, I need your wisdom, guidance, relationship advice or– or better yet, lack of relationship advice.

Chanel: And what do you need all of that for?

Alex: You guys gotta help me get over Stephanie Johnson.


EJ: Get up, get dressed and get the hell outta my house–now! I was right all along.

Johnny: Dad, calm down. It’s not what it looks like–

EJ: Don’t you dad tell me it’s not what it looks like. I know exactly what it is. This woman, this– this scheming slut.

Johnny: Hey! Don’t talk about her that way.

EJ: Can’t you see what she’s doing? She’s using you to get to me.

Ava: No, please do not flatter yourself.

EJ: I questioned your so-called marriage to my brother, Jake, which for the record, I still don’t believe actually happened. I questioned your sanity and your ability to carry out your responsibilities at DiMera. So you took my son to bed for one reason, and one reason alone.

Johnny: Dad!

EJ: Revenge!

Johnny: You don’t understand.

Ava: No, no, he does.

EJ: Get out of my house now.

Ava: Yeah, I damn well will because the sight of you makes me sick.

Johnny: Yeah, me, too, and if she goes, I go.

EJ: Win, win.


Gabi: Stefan, what– what are you saying? No, listen, you have been through a trauma. You are confused, but please just try, try to remember how much we love each other.

Stefan: I, uh… I don’t feel that way. Not at all.

Gabi: So you have to remember, please. You have to.

Shin: Oh, my God.


Stephanie: I was able to book you a magazine interview for tomorrow. I have some materials here for your prep.

Paulina: Oh, wow. Someone does their homework. Well, I’m pretty sure it’s safe to say. The only skeletons left in my closet now are Halloween decorations.

Stephanie: Excellent. and Mayor Carver, is it possible that you could also participate in the interview?

Abe: Oh, uh, I– I’m not running

Stephanie: Our polling shows that the main reason that Salemites were less keen on you running for governor was that they would lose you as mayor, meaning we can parlay your popularity into a huge asset for Paulina. Not that you’re not a strong enough candidate in your own right. But as one half of a political power couple…

Paulina: Ooh, I love the sound of that. A political power couple. Right? Right, Abe?

Abe: I– I– I don’t want this to be about me.

Paulina: Ha, not with me standing next to you. [Chuckles] Oh, I tease this man relentlessly, but lucky for me, he puts up with it.

Abe: Most of the time.

Paulina: Oh.. [Chuckles] You know, it wasn’t that long ago, I would’ve pushed you out that door, after hearing that I was only one half of the power couple.

Stephanie: Well, I’m glad you didn’t hire me then. May I ask why?

Paulina: Uh, when I was young–er, younger, I was trapped in a very painful relationship with my first daughter’s father. Then I met Chanel’s father, and I lost him. After that, I decided that I was just done with men. I didn’t need love, and I didn’t want the pain that it brought. You know, and I had my business. That was enough.

Stephanie: Well, I can certainly relate to that.

Paulina: Yes, until I met Abe. [Chuckles] Then I realized just how wrong I was.

Abe: [Chuckles]


Chanel: Why do you wanna get over Stephanie?

Allie: Yeah, I thought she was the woman of your dreams, love at first sight.

Alex: She is, and it was. But as she blatantly pointed out to me that those feelings have to go both ways, and she drove home that in this case, they don’t.

Chanel: Oh, dang, that’s rough.

Alex: Yeah, I guess there’s this new popular thing about respecting a woman’s boundaries and taking no for an answer. Y’all heard of that?

Allie: Mm-hmm, it rings a bell.

Alex: Uh, well, rung a bell to me, too, because I’m not a schmuck, and I understand that when a woman says, “no,” she means it. Just wasn’t really used to hearing that very often until recently, moving back here.

Chanel: Oh, poor baby.

Allie: Yeah, I mean, it’s really shocking, too, you know? ‘Cause you’re so charming, and handsome, and rich. I can’t even imagine how anyone could say no to you, like, you’re just such a catch.

Alex: All right. Get it outta your system; it’s okay. Just remember, I am a bit heartbroken right now, and I have no idea how I’m supposed to get over this incredible woman who thinks I’m a jerk. All I do know– I should have never listened to Sonny boy.

Chanel: You mean when he told you that you should find love and settle down?

Alex: Yup. And I told you about that. And I also told you that I completely rejected that idea. I was great. I was having a good time. I was having casual encounters with wonderful women that were all fine with it. There was no feelings to complicate things, you know? It was just good, old-fashioned, carnal, hot fun. But now. I’ve got all these feelings–

Chanel: Mm-hmm.

Alex: You know, for Stephanie, and this is a woman that I hardly know. She wants nothing to do with me. So I’m, like, how do I stop obsessing? How do I not feel so needy and pathetic?

Chanel: Well, maybe what you need is to go back to your old ways. You know, just a hookup. In other words, like, no strings attached, just fun, you know? No feelings. Just to get your mind off Stephanie.

Alex: Yeah, that might work. Actually…

Allie: Actually what?

Alex: Now, don’t take this the wrong way because you know how much I like you girls, and I know you didn’t exactly jump, the first time around, on this idea, but–

Chanel: But?

Alex: Is there any chance you two might wanna volunteer to help out your old friend, Alex, through a tough time? Some no-strings fun?


Shin: Jake, you’re alive?

Stefan: When the hell are people gonna stop calling me Jake?

Gabi: Um, Li, I know that this is unbelievable, but this is Stefan.

Shin: What? That’s impossible.

Gabi: Yeah, he told me that Rolf basically brought him back from the dead.

Stefan: Li, it’s been a long time. I take it you’re still with DiMera?

Shin: Yes, I am.

Stefan: Mm-hmm? Who’s the CEO this week?

Shin: Gabi is, and she’s doing an amazing job.

Stefan: That an engagement ring?

Shin: Yes, it is. Gabi and I are getting married.


EJ: Well, I see you’ve already started packing.

Ava: Oh, you’re damn right. Can’t wait to get out of this mausoleum.

Johnny: Me, neither.

EJ: Then good riddance to the both of you.

Johnny: [Sighs] I’m really sorry about that.

Ava: Nah, don’t be. It’s for the best. I’ll just, um, I’ll get a room at the Salem Inn, and, uh, what about you? Hmm? This is your family home. You sure that you–

Johnny: Oh, I’m very sure. Yeah. My father needs to realize he can’t just bully people and get away with it.

Ava: Okay. So what are you gonna do? Where are you gonna go?

Johnny: Well, I’ll go to the Salem Inn with you.


Ava: Johnny. We just met a couple of weeks ago.

Johnny: And had an immediate connection.

Ava: Yes, but you know that this cannot be.

Johnny: Look, it’s okay. All right. I–I–I’ll sleep on the floor. I’ll sleep on a cot, whatever, and it doesn’t have to be about sex; I mean that. But by the way, I– I kind love that my dad thinks it is.

Ava: Yeah. Me, too. But listen, still, Johnny, I don’t think that this is the right time for us to be movin’ in together. We know now–

Johnny: Look, you know, I didn’t mean– I didn’t mean move in together, move in together, it can be just one night to start, right? If that’s what you want.

Ava: To start–Mm-hmm

Johnny: Okay, look. Ava, I didn’t try to sleep with you to prove some point to my dad. I did it because, well, like I said, I– I really like. I really like you, Ava. You say I’ve helped you. Well, I’ve been a little bummed myself. You know, about Chanel, uh, about a lot of things, but, um, you helped me, too.

Ava: Well, I’m glad, and I just want you to know that, uh, our hanging out so much and getting close like we have, you know, now we know it’s just a friendship.

Johnny: [Chuckles]

Ava: Like I wasn’t looking for revenge against your dad, okay? But if it’s a fringe benefit, then I guess I won’t complain.


Allie: What happened to that little thing you were telling us about, you know, respecting women’s boundaries, taking “no” for an answer”

Alex: But did you ever actually say the word, “No?”

Both: Yes.

Alex: Okay, all right. Just hear me out. This time around wouldn’t all be just fun. You’d actually be doing a pretty good deed for someone. You’d be helping me get Stephanie outta my system and helping your pal out through a difficult time. And you said I was handsome and charming. So what do you say?

Chanel: Well, Alex, you know, we like to have as good a time as anyone–

Alex: Okay. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Listen, speaking for myself, and hopefully for Chanel as well… Sure, yeah, having a fun, no-strings time will maybe get you out of your misery, temporarily, at least. But I think it would be a big mistake to banish this new semi-enlightened you, and look, just because Stephanie wants nothing to do with you, that doesn’t mean that you can’t find somebody out there to have a real relationship with who shares your feelings.

Alex: Yeah. You know, I actually– I agree with Allie, and you know what, maybe you could just consider this a bump in the road on your way to finding that special someone.

Allie: Yeah. And maybe, you know, instead of just jumping into the fun, and distracting yourself from how you’re feeling right now, which is rejected and pathetic, you could deal with those feelings. You could sit with them for a little while. It might be therapeutic, you know?

Alex: Maybe. Thank you girls for listening, and to be honest with you, I really respect the fact that you’re not into the whole threesome idea. After developing these feelings for Stephanie, I kind of understand what it’s like to just want to be with one person– be exclusive and in love with that one– like you guys. But in your case, it obviously goes both ways. Unfortunately, not both ways, both ways, but both ways. You know what I mean. You know what I mean. Hey, I’m envious.

Chanel: [Laughs]

Alex: Take care, ladies.

Allie: [Chuckles] Yeah.


Stephanie: So it was love at first sight for you two?

Paulina: Oh, good heavens no.

[Abe and Paulina chuckle]

Paulina: No, what I mean to say is, well, when I first met Abe, oh, I could see he was quite the catch, but I just told myself, “Not interested.” Like I said, my business was my life. And well, I just– eventually, I just couldn’t ignore what was standing right in front of me.

[Abe and Paulina chuckle]

Paulina: I just–I just opened up, and I gave in, and I’m so glad I did. Man, we’ve hit some potholes along the way, yes. But this man right here is the best thing that ever happened to me.

Abe: Oh, Paulina has made me happier than I ever thought possible.

Paulina: Bottom line, Stephanie, is sometimes you think, you know what you want and don’t want, but as it turns out, you don’t have a clue.

Stephanie: Yeah.

Paulina: Anything else that you want from me?

Stephanie: No, no, I think, I think if you share in the interview tomorrow, what you just told me, you’ll give a lot of people food for thought.


Stefan: Wow, congratulations. Gabi, I’m glad to see that you moved on, and I hope you too have a happy life together. I should go.

Gabi: Oh, Stefan, wait. I– I– I– I don’t know what Rolf has done to you, but we need to get you to a hospital. We have to get you checked out.

Stefan: No, no, I’m not going to a hospital. In fact, I’m not going anywhere with you.

Gabi: But you have to remember.

Stefan: No, no, I do remember, Gabi. You’re the one who needs reminding. I was living a happy life in a relationship with Chloe Lane, and you came along and ruined everything.


Johnny: If you need me, I will be at the Salem Inn with Ava.

EJ: What? You can’t seriously be moving in with that woman? She’s– she’s a cougar. She’s using you. My God, Johnny! This is wrong on so many levels!

Johnny: Ava.

Ava: Aw, thank you. Bye, EJ. [Hisses]


Paulina’s voice: Sometimes you think you know what you want and don’t want, but as it turns out, you don’t have a clue.

Alex: [Sighs] I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to– I didn’t even realize– I’m– I’m gonna go.

Stephanie: It’s a public place, Alex. You can– you’re allowed to be here.

Alex: No, it’s– it’s okay, really. I’m– I’m gonna go– I’ll go sit over there.

Stephanie: Wait. I know I said that we should celebrate separately, but since you’re here, and I’m here, I guess I don’t see why we can’t celebrate together. I mean, it’s just one drink, and it’s business, right?

Alex: It’s business. Of course. You sure, though?

Stephanie: Pull up a stool. I’m buying.

Alex: [Sighs]


Allie: Do you think Alex learned anything?

Chanel: I think he learned that it’s a bummer to get hurt.

Allie: Do you think that he learned that we don’t need a man in the bedroom to have a good time?

Chanel: Um, yeah. I– I think you, I think you got through to him.

Allie: Chanel, I– I don’t wanna share you with anyone for any reason ever. Like, even for a night, I seriously could not handle that.

Chanel: Okay, well, then, you will never have to. And Allie, I don’t wanna share you, either.

Allie: Oh, look, who’s here.

Johnny: Hey, sis. Chanel. Uh, my– my dad kind of kicked us out, so we’re getting a room in the Inn.

Allie: Together?

Johnny: Yeah, why not? Well, uh, you guys have a great night. I know we will.

Allie: Okay.


Gabi: I stole you from Chloe Lane? What the hell are you talking about?

Stefan: As I recall it, you tried to seduce me to get your foot in the door at DiMera.

Gabi: What?

Stefan: That seemed to be the theme of our whole relationship. I hope you come to your senses and soon. Good luck to you.

Gabi: Stefan, wait.

Shin: I’m so sorry, Gabi. This must be so disturbing for you–so painful. But I assure you, it’s gonna be okay. I’ll make it okay.

Recap written by Michele and Cheryl

Gabi was shocked when Li proposed to her. She wanted to know what made him want to propose. He thought about his plan to stop Stefan from getting her back. Li told her he was proposing from the heart. He thought he might have jumped the gun. She said he might not have. She said she thought they were a fling at first. She said their relationship has grown. She said no one could take Stefan’s place in her heart, but Rafe told her not to give up on love. She said there was room for Li. She accepted his proposal. He was happy and wondered how the DiMeras would react to their news. Ava thought she saw Jake in the DiMera crypt. She told him he was dead. He said he wasn’t dead anymore. He tried to comfort her because he thought she looked pale. She thought she was going crazy. She ran out and said he wasn’t Jake. Stefan looked at Jake’s plaque and thought he could be his twin brother. Johnny told EJ that Ava could handle the memorial. EJ said it could send her over the edge. Johnny thought he wanted that to happen. Johnny said she was fine. He said EJ should pay respect to Jake. Johnny said Jake was family. He said family meant something to Stefano. He said he thought that meant something to EJ too. Tony and Anna talked about the family battling each other. Anna said Johnny had a crush on Ava. Johnny walked in and told them that the memorial was a good idea. Ava walked in and said she saw Jake again. She told them what she saw. She told them it was real. Johnny said he didn’t think she was crazy. They went to the crypt to see what was going on.

Tony told Anna that he thought EJ might have been right about Ava. EJ came in while they were talking. Tony told him that Ava saw Jake again. Tony said he hoped EJ wouldn’t be a jerk to Ava. Gabi and Li came in and told them the good news. Tony thought their move was strategic. He told them Ava saw Jake again. Li was scared and said they should go to the crypt. Ava and Johnny went in the crypt. Stefan was gone. She told Johnny what happened. She said it was impossible that he wasn’t there. Johnny said his family had a history of cheating death. He said Jake might have done it too. He suggested they look around. She wondered why Jake didn’t react to her if he was there. She asked why didn’t he stop her. She said she was losing her mind. He said she didn’t have to be insane. She thought it was too much to handle. She ran off. Johnny accused EJ of trying to gaslight Ava. EJ said she was doing it to herself. Johnny accused him of doing it to Ava. EJ said he wasn’t doing that to her. He said she was lying about being a DiMera. Johnny walked away from him. He went to Ava. She was packing her things. He asked her to stay. She said she thought she was being punished. He said she wasn’t. She said she has done terrible things. He said her family had nothing on his family. He asked her to stay.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Knock on door ]

Nick: How was the victory tour? From all your messages from the road, it sounds like the trip was a smashing success.

Victoria: That’s actually an understatement. I closed almost every single deal I set my sights on. Legal is gonna have their hands full in the coming weeks finalizing all of these acquisitions.

Nick: Maybe we should send them, like, a gift basket.

Victoria: I am going to send everyone on the team a huge bonus check when this is done for making this game changer possible.

Nick: Vick, I haven’t seen you this happy since — no. You’re even more elated than you were before the merger.

Victoria: Well, that’s because this time is different. This time, it’s — [Sighs] It’s mine. Carefully curated companies, everything that we need. We’re filling in the gaps as a corporation.

Nick: Hey, if you’re happy, I’m happy.

Victoria: And one of the reasons that I have this big smile on my face right now is due to you, because of your — your dedication to the company. And because you happen to be the best brother in the whole world.

Nick: Well, it’s about time you noticed.

Victoria: I was able to go out there and conquer and do what I needed to do without having to worry about what was going on back here. I mean, I know I’ve always been able to rely on mom as my partner, but it’s nice, the three of us together now.

Nick: Feels like a winning combination.

Victoria: Yes. We’re stronger together. We’re unbeatable. So, thank you so much for keeping everything running so seamlessly.

Nick: [ Sighs ] I hate to bring down the mood, but I’m not entirely sure that’s the case.

Chloe: [ Sighs ] There you are. I was five minutes away from calling out a search party. Did you get my text?

Sally: Yeah, I saw it. I was in an important meeting. You said it was an emergency, so I rushed back. What’s so urgent?

Chloe: Oh, just the marketing summit between newman media and the parent company’s marketing teams.

Sally: Okay. That’s later today.

Chloe: No. It just happened.

[ Cellphone thuds ] All of that preparation and work for nothing.

[ Scoffs ] So, what all-important, urgent meeting were you in?

Victoria: So, tell me — what have I missed?

Nick: In a nutshell, dad wants me to fire sally and then replace her with myself as ceo of newman media.

Victoria: Should I be worried that I’m losing you?

Nick: No way, vick. I’m doing what I want to do. I like being a part of the big-picture stuff with you and mom.

Victoria: [ Scoffs ] Why would dad want you to move over to media?

Nick: I’m sure it’s a form of retaliation against adam for abandoning us and also agreeing to be jack’s co-ceo of jabot.

Victoria: Yes, that was pretty shocking for me, too. I got a million-or-so text messages about it.

Nick: I’m sure most of those texts were from me.

Victoria: A bunch of them were from billy. I have to admit, I didn’t see this coming from adam…or jack.

Nick: There was just no way dad was gonna let this kind of betrayal go unpunished. And what better way than to kick sally to the curb after adam fought so hard for her to keep her job than to give me her old seat?

Victoria: Seems a little convoluted, but I can see the logic in it.

Nick: Dad just has to have his way and interfere in everything. He’s got to move the chess pieces around so everyone is exactly where he wants them, no matter what they want for themselves. I mean, can you believe this?

Victoria: [ Chuckles ] Yes, I can believe this. And you’re right. That’s exactly what dad’s doing.

Elena: I’ll go grab us some tea.

Nate: What I’d like is a burger.

Elena: Well, what you need to do is take a deep breath.

Nate: It’s pointless trying to relax.

Elena: Okay. Why don’t you tell me what happened?

Nate: I was foolish enough to think that I could get past devon’s stubbornness. But he’s so threatened by new ideas and just set in his stodgy way of thinking. I —

Elena: Was this that meeting with jill and lily?

Nate: And devon dialed in from virginia. I was — I was so excited to work with my family, to build something that matters, that’ll outlast us all.

Elena: Well, maybe there’s still a way to heal all this.

Nate: What do you mean? You’re the one who had reservations. You just told me the other day that I should leave. And silly me wasn’t ready. Well, guess what. I’m ready now. So you should be happy.

Lily: I mean, nate is one of the most polished, even-tempered men I know. And why would he lose his cool like that, especially in front of jill?

Billy: Because he’s under a lot of pressure, and most of that is self-imposed.

Lily: Well, he was in a good mood at the beginning of the call.

Billy: Well, yeah. He’s worked very hard on his music festival idea, and like i said on the call, I’m impressed. I think it’s a good idea.

Lily: I think it’s a good idea, too. But devon doesn’t like it.

Billy: No. That is clear. And I think nate was offended by his negative reaction. What?

Lily: Well, it just —

Billy: What’d I say?

Lily: It really sounds like you’re taking sides right now, and I would hope that you, of all people, would know that i can’t deal with that right now.

Nate: Thank you.

Elena: Mm-hmm. Now, the only reason I suggested that you leave chancellor-winters was because of all the tension between you and devon. That’s also why I suggested that you slow down with your plans for the music festival.

Nate: Yes, in retrospect, that was a good idea.

Elena: I’m gonna take a wild guess that you told lily about your plan while devon’s been away in virginia?

Nate: No. That was my original intention. I pitched it to billy. And he loved it.

Elena: And?

Nate: Then billy brought it up in our video call with jill and devon.

Elena: [ Chuckles ] And I’m sure devon was not very happy to be caught off guard in front of everyone about something he thought was dead in the water.

Nate: Okay, I did not expect billy to put it all out there like that.

Elena: Yeah, but that doesn’t change the fact that devon probably felt blindsided.

Nate: Which was the last thing I wanted. But am I supposed to just sit quietly while the rest of the executive team actually likes my idea and wants to hear details?

[ Scoffs ] I’m truly befuddled. I don’t understand why you keep taking devon’s side.

Nick: I don’t get it. Why aren’t you more bothered by dad’s interference?

Victoria: It’s who he is. I mean, at this point, I could write his playbook. You could. So, it’s okay. Let him — let him make his suggestions that he wants to make. Ultimately, we’re gonna make the call on how to handle this.

Nick: Okay.

Victoria: What do you want?

Nick: Oh. What do i want? Uh, I would like to no longer be a part of any more of dad’s mind games targeting adam.

Victoria: [ Chuckles ] Well, good luck with that. What else are you thinking?

Nick: I have some concerns about sally.

Victoria: Like what?

Nick: She seems to be second-guessing herself.

Victoria: About what?

Nick: You know, she had all these great plans to reinvigorate omega media. Then the numbers came back. They weren’t great. Then she was talking about scrapping the whole thing. She came to me for advice.

Victoria: Did you disagree with her judgment?

Nick: That’s the thing. She didn’t have an opinion about it either way. Uh…I don’t know. It’s like she’s questioning her instincts.

Victoria: Well, that’s not a good sign, especially not in the c-suite.

Nick: She seems to have lost that strong leadership and management style that she spoke so passionately about when she was pleading to keep her job.

Victoria: What do you think happened to her?

Nick: I have my suspicions about what’s got her off kilter. Pretty sure it’s adam.

Sally: That marketing summit is in two hours.

Chloe: [ Chuckles ] No. It just happened. And do you know why I’m so certain? Because I was there.

Sally: Oh, no.

Chloe: Oh, yes. I did that presentation alone. And everyone from our team and theirs was wondering where you were. “Where’s your ceo?” “I hope she’s alright.”

Sally: Damn it. It’s the right time in my calendar, but — I don’t know — for some reason, I swore it was later today.

Chloe: Are you serious?

Sally: Look, you know what? It’s fine, though, ’cause I am positive that you were amazing because you are so poised and polished. So, what was the response, generally?

Chloe: I mean, I did my best, but, honestly, everyone was a little confused and kind of annoyed that you were a no-show.

Sally: Okay. Well, I will just e-mail everyone and tell them that my assistant put the wrong time in the calendar.

Chloe: But that’s not what happened.

Sally: Okay, well, this is one of those times where a little white lie is best, okay? I really did think the meeting was later today. Otherwise, I would not have gone to the athletic club roof.

Chloe: Why were you there?

Sally: Just to clear my head.

Chloe: But you said you were in a different important meeting.

Sally: It was impromptu. I ran into someone that I have been trying to catch up with, and — and I just got a little distracted.

Chloe: With who?

Sally: I really don’t see why it matters.

Chloe: Okay. Well, if you forgot about your meeting because you had a different, important meeting, i think I have the right to know.

Sally: Adam. Alright? It was adam.

Chloe: [ Laughs ] That is so funny because I heard you say “adam” twice. I just must be hallucinating.

Sally: Okay. Well, you should be happy because now I finally have absolute clarity. The world is full of make or break moments.

Victoria: So, sally’s been knocked off center by adam. It’s such a pity that nobody warned her she should stay away from him.

Nick: Come on. We’ve all been gutted by break-ups. They throw you off your game. They make you question yourself and your life.

Victoria: Nicholas, I know that better than anyone. I’ve just been through hell and back. But I need everyone to be in fighting form for the next phase of this company. There’s a world of difference between having a couple of bad days and being completely unqualified for the job.

Nick: I never said she couldn’t cut it. I just don’t think she’s in the best headspace right now.

Victoria: Oh, I’m so sorry. This is not a charity organization. We do not take workers under our arm and give them a how-to on being an executive or regaining one’s confidence after adam.

Nick: Look, I’ve said it before. I’m gonna say it again. I think it’s bad for optics if we replace her so soon after replacing adam. Is she perfect for the job? Probably not. But do I think she can grow? I absolutely do, vick. I really think she deserves credit for coming to you and warning you that adam wanted to publish evidence about dad’s cover-up.

Victoria: I was impressed with her loyalty, nicholas, but that’s not enough reason to keep her around.

Nick: Just trust me, okay? I’m gonna keep an eye on her. Let’s give her some time. Maybe she’ll turn it around.

[ Cellphone pings ]

Billy: I’m not taking sides, but I do want this conflict between nate and devon to smooth out as soon as possible.

Lily: Well, then, maybe you shouldn’t have had nate bring up the music festival idea on the call.

Billy: Yeah, okay. You have a point there. But I thought it was important that my mother and devon both see that nate has good instincts. I mean, he took every problem that devon had with his music festival idea, and he fixed them. He made it better. What else can you ask for?

Lily: Well, maybe devon felt blindsided, like his authority was being undermined, you know, which apparently is how he felt, given his mood after the call.

Billy: Yeah, I did not expect nate to walk out, that’s for sure.

Lily: If we don’t do something about this, he might walk away for good.

Billy: How do you feel about that?

Lily: I mean, like a failure. You know? I’m in charge. I’m supposed to be able to help everyone through this.

Billy: I understand that’s how you feel because that’s who you are, but let’s not lose sight of something very important here. Devon is your equal partner, okay? If he has a problem with nate, they need to figure that out outside of this office. It’s not your job to mediate.

Lily: No, but it is my responsibility as the person who pushed for this merger and as their family.

Billy: Okay. Well, then you need to have a serious conversation with your brother because if they don’t fix their issues, your cousin could be jumping ship.

Elena: I’m not taking devon’s side. I’m just trying to see his point of view so that you could see his point of view. My whole objective here is just to get you both to resolve your issues.

Nate: I wish that were possible.

Elena: And for the record, i am sorry that things did not work out with chancellor-winters. I know how excited everyone was to work together. But I do believe that things will be better for you when there’s less friction and tension.

Nate: I’ll be a lot less stressed.

Elena: So, what’s next? Have you officially given your resignation?

Nate: No, but in my head, I’ve done it 100 times in a 100 different ways.

Elena: Okay, well, as long as you don’t burn any bridges. You want to keep your relationship with devon and lily intact.

Nate: Of course I want to be fair to lily, but I’m not sure i can swallow my anger at devon.

Lily: But you’re gonna try, right?

Nate: I have to cool off before I answer that.

Elena: Well, I’m still gonna take that as a “yes.” Let’s talk about your future. What you want to do next?

Nate: [ Sighs ] I haven’t thought that far.

Elena: Well, if it were up to me, I still think you should go back to memorial. And I’m not the only person who thinks so. Everyone misses you there.

Nate: Send them my best wishes because there’s no way I’ll go back. I hated the bureaucracy there when I was the chief of surgery. That’s the whole reason why i left. And besides, that position was filled months ago. The only way I’ll go back to medicine would be as a surgeon. And you and I both know that’ll never happen because of devon.

Chloe: If you think I’m glad that you missed your meeting because you were flirting with adam, you have well and truly lost both your mind and all perspective.

Sally: I wasn’t flirting, okay? It was a civilized conversation. It was almost as if none of what recently took place actually happened. And it felt good.

Chloe: Yeah, I bet.

Sally: Adam and I have always had this chemistry.

Chloe: And it’s still there?

Sally: Yeah. Off the charts. But when things could have gone completely off the rails, i looked in his eyes and I said no. And I put on the brakes.

Chloe: And you’re sure that my emergency text isn’t what slowed things down?

Sally: Okay, you are not paying attention.

Chloe: Do you see what’s happening here? Adam is so deep inside your head that he is screwing with what you swore was your number-one priority — becoming the best damn ceo newman media has ever had.

Sally: I am not letting my personal feelings get in the way of my work, okay? I missed one meeting. It’s not the end of the world.

Chloe: Well, it could be the beginning of the end of your career, all because you’re distracted by adam.

Sally: You are overreacting.

Nick: Everything okay in here?

Sally: I should ask you the same question. Is everything alright?

Nick: What makes you think there’s something wrong?

Sally: You’re the boss. Whenever you show up unexpectedly, it makes me a little nervous. Hopefully you don’t have any bad news.

Nick: Nah, it’s just an information-gathering mission. I wanted to see how the marketing summit went.

Sally: What would you say, chloe? I would be interested in hearing your take ’cause, I mean, as far as I’m concerned, you were brilliant.

Chloe: Yeah, I did, uh, my best. I wouldn’t go that far.

Sally: Oh, come on. Don’t be modest. You were, uh, really great in the coo role.

Chloe: And I was grateful to, um, be able to do the presentation. And, you know, if it weren’t for sally — I mean, she’s just such a great leader, willing to give others the spotlight.

[ Chuckles ]

Nick: So it went well then?

Chloe: Yeah. It was great. People were very engaged.

Sally: Yeah, my — my inbox is blowing up. I’m gonna be answering e-mails all day.

Nick: Well, the way you’re both talking, it’s as if you want me to believe sally was actually there when we all know she wasn’T.

Elena: If you blame devon for ending your surgical career, does that mean you blame me, too?

Nate: No, absolutely not. My point is, once again devon has screwed up my career path.

Elena: Nate, those are two very different things. And I think it’s dangerous to conflate them. The first was an accident because devon felt that we both betrayed him. And this is just a matter of different business philosophies.

Nate: No. He’s threatened. He doesn’t want me to outshine him. Why else would you shoot down someone’s ideas without trying to make them work?

Elena: I don’t know about that. Devon is an established music producer. He’s a successful businessman. I don’t think he has anything to prove.

Nate: I’m not interested in psychoanalyzing the situation.

Elena: Well, I’m just trying to understand —

Nate: It’s a waste of time. It happened. It’s over. I’m done.

Lily: And when jill said that she wants to take the company public…

Billy: Yeah. Not the news I was expecting. What do you think?

Lily: I mean, I haven’t even fully processed it yet.

Billy: I know you said on the call that you’re gonna have to talk to devon about it, but clearly he has concerns. So maybe we should, uh, unpack this a little bit, see what we got.

Lily: Okay. Why don’t you start?

Billy: Alright. Well, I will say initially I had the same concerns as devon. We’re gonna lose the power to make decisions on our own, in the room, collectively. We’re gonna lose control to a bunch of stockholders, and that makes me nervous.

Lily: I mean, yeah, it makes me nervous, too. It makes me…excited. You know, I think that you have to give up some control of some things to gain more control over other things.

Billy: Such as?

Lily: Well, I mean, this could provide us with the financial freedom to pursue other projects, like the music festival. I mean, that would help alleviate, you know, devon’s main concern, which were the financial pitfalls.

Billy: If that is actually the main concern, if that’s the reason why devon actually has a problem with nate’s idea in the first place.

Lily: Yeah. I guess all things lead back to my family feud.

Both: [ Chuckles ] You know, when we started this merger, I never imagined that my mother and I would be getting along better than nate and devon.

Lily: We need to solve this issue before it causes any more disruption. I mean, you’re my coo. Do you have any ideas?

Nick: I got a message from the head of newman marketing saying the ceo of newman media was not at the meeting. At first, I thought maybe you were sick or something, but I’m really hoping there’s a reasonable explanation for you not being there.

Sally: Unfortunately, I do not have one of those. I screwed up. I had it in my calendar, but in my mind, for some reason, i thought it was later today. I should have set an alarm to remind myself. I’m — I’m sorry. I will personally make it up to both teams.

Nick: Chloe, may I please talk to sally alone?

Chloe: Yeah. Of course.

Nick: Thank you.

[ Door opens ] You know, I can count on one hand the number of people who want to see you succeed. And I’m one of them.

Sally: Yeah, I know. And I appreciate that.

Nick: Then level with me, sally. You missing this meeting is a big deal, and I need to understand why it happened.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Elena: Well, hopefully we can finish up this conversation at dinner. I would love to map out a plan for your future and a way to amend things with your family.

Nate: I’ll see you later. I’ve been hearing some terrific things are in the works at newman.

Victoria: I have just returned from a very successful shopping spree.

Nate: Mm. Something tells me this has absolutely nothing to do with an afternoon at fenmore’s?

Victoria: [ Chuckles ] I’m buying companies, not clothes, but that’s all I can say for now because it hasn’t officially been announced yet.

Nate: Ah. Sounds exciting. And it’s good to see you this happy.

Victoria: Thank you. I’m doing what I was meant to do and I’m where I’m supposed to be. I hope that things are going equally well for you at chancellor-winters.

Nate: Mm. Ah — whew. How should I put this? I am interested in pursuing other opportunities.

Victoria: I’m surprised.

Nate: I was initially intrigued when I was first offered a job at newman. At the time, there was a lot of talk about how my experience and ideas could make me a great fit.

Victoria: You know I’m a big fan, right? But I have to ask — why would you even think about walking away from chancellor-winters?

Billy: I think devon’s reasons for always pushing back on nate’s ideas are excuses. I think every problem that devon has had, nate has figured out a workaround and he’s been doing a great job at it. Yet devon still won’t budge.

Lily: I mean, what do you think it is? Residual hurt feelings from nate cheating with elena?

Billy: Possibly. Or devon’s worried that his accolades are, you know, not being recognized. Look, nate’s a smart guy. He’s a surgeon, and now he’s working the way around the boardroom pretty well. I mean, even I’m a little bit jealous of him. People learn how to deal with healthy competition, but when it comes to family, it’s a whole new thing. And maybe that’s devon’s thing. I mean, he is well respected in this industry, and he’s worked very hard to earn that respect. And now there’s some, you know, new blood coming in that’s getting a little attention. Maybe that hurts devon’s ego a little bit. Whatever’s going on between them, I think it’s deeper than a music festival idea. The question is, what can we do about it?

Lily: I mean, look, regardless, whatever it is, we have to figure this out. Otherwise, it’s just gonna keep bubbling over until everything explodes, and that is not good for our family and it’s not good for the company.

Sally: I screwed up. And there’s no excuse, so I will just tell you the truth about why I missed the summit.

Nick: That’s always a good strategy.

Sally: I ran into adam.

Nick: You missed a meeting because you saw adam?

Sally: Yes. But also no — because I was positively convinced that the meeting was later today. I mean, look, if I’m being completely honest, I have been a little bit distracted processing my feelings about adam and our break-up. So I went to go clear my head, and I [Chuckles] Ran into adam, of course.

Nick: I didn’t know you two were on speaking terms right now.

Sally: We’re defrosting. He apologized, and he asked for forgiveness. Shocking, right? But we’ve actually gotten to the point where we can stand to be in the same room with each other. You know, we can have a conversation without things turning ugly.

Nick: Well, that’s good, I guess.

Sally: We indulged in quite a bit of small talk, actually. He told me things are going really well at jabot. He finally found where he belongs. Which is great, you know, ’cause whenever you find that…

Nick: This whole mess with adam has really done a number on you, huh? And despite your best efforts, you just can’t seem to get past it.

Psst psst.

Sally: Sure. Yeah. This whole mess with adam hurt. But it is hardly the first time I’ve gotten my heart broken. And I know now that adam was being noble. You know, he wanted me to keep my job, and he didn’t want you or victoria’s hatred of him getting in the way.

Nick: That doesn’t excuse what he did.

Sally: No. It doesn’T. And in some ways, it makes it harder to reconcile the fact that he deliberately hurt me because, in his own twisted way, he was just trying to protect me.

Nick: “Twisted” is often used to describe adam’s motivations.

Sally: I know you can’t stand the guy, but that’s not really fair.

Nick: Sally, actually, i don’t hate my brother, alright? We’ve had a lot of disagreements and issues over the years, but I’ve come to realize we share common ground. I’m starting to understand him a little better.

Sally: I’m glad to hear that. And I’m sure adam would be, too.

Nick: But I’m here to talk about how this affects you.

Sally: I’m fine.

Nick: Listen to me. I can’t ignore the fact that you missed this meeting. Like I said, it’s a big deal. It impacts everyone’s perception of you as a leader. Now, newman has a lot of very important acquisitions in the pipeline, and I need to know that you can do this.

Sally: I can. I will make things right. I promise. I — I don’t know how yet exactly, but I swear I will not let anything come in between me and my dream job.

Nick: But something or someone has. Look, I know adam can mess with your mind. I’ve seen it before. But I believe in you, sally. I’m doing everything I can to set you up to succeed. And I’m confident that you will,

if you can get adam out of your system.

Nate: Let’s just say it’s more difficult working with my family than I thought. There are just simply too many personal factors at play.

Victoria: You have wonderful instincts. And you are definitely a forward thinker, and you deserve to be somewhere where people appreciate your contributions. But right now, I just don’t have a good fit for you.

Nate: Oh, it’s — no worries. I know something will turn up eventually and, um, I’ll end where I belong.

Victoria: Hold on. Don’t jump too fast too soon. Once the dust settles on my new acquisitions, I’m gonna need people like you to run those divisions. I’m gonna keep you in mind.

Nate: Please do.

Victoria: You know, working with family — it can be complicated and it can be exhausting, but it kind of forces us to push through those difficult moments and make it work.

Nate: Mm. That’s good advice.

Victoria: I hope you figure it out.

Billy: Come here. Stand up.

Lily: What are we doing?

Billy: Come on.

Lily: [ Chuckles ] What — [ Laughs ]

Billy: Whoa.

Lily: What?

Billy: Okay, that’s not working. Sit back down.

Lily: [ Laughs ] Why?

Billy: Come here. Stand up.

Lily: [ Laughing ] What —

Billy: Come on. Bring it in. We got to try this again.

Lily: Try what?

Billy: Oh, lordy.

Lily: What is wrong?

Billy: Well, at first i thought it was me, but it is definitely you.

Lily: What is me?

Billy: I feel like I’m hugging a statue. Will you please just relax a little bit?

Lily: Oh, my god. Okay. I mean, that’s how I feel, and I don’t like it.

Billy: Lucky you have me to help you relax.

Lily: [ Chuckles ] Oh. Oh, wow.

Billy: Yeah? It’s okay?

Lily: That’s nice. Thank you.

Billy: You like that?

Lily: Oh, my gosh. I didn’t realize how tense i was. Ahh.

Billy: You have an ability to look cool and collected when the rest of us are all losing our heads.

Lily: [ Chuckles ] That is the true sign of a leader.

Lily: Yeah. Or someone in complete denial.

[ Breathes deeply ]

Billy: You’re born to be a ceo. And you’re doing it. You are merging two powerful companies into one major corporation…that is not gonna stop for anything. And you’re managing complicated family dynamics.

Lily: Hmm.

Billy: And my mother is so impressed with you that she wants to take this company public. And I am in awe of you.

Lily: Thank you.

Imani: Nate?

[ Chuckles ] Nate!

Nate: Hey. Ah.

Imani: [ Chuckles ]

Nate: I’m sorry. You got to forgive me. I’m stuck in my own head.

Imani: It’s alright. I’ll just grab a coffee, and when I come back, you can fill me in on the big move you’re gonna make while devon’s out of town.

Nate: It all blew up. I crunched some new numbers, ran it all by billy.

Imani: And I’m sure he loved it.

Nate: Yeah, but that turned out to be the problem.

Imani: [ Scoffs ] How?

Nate: Well, we had a big conference call with jill. She asked what everyone was working on. I wasn’t gonna say anything specific, but billy piped up and volunteered my pet project. And you know what? Devon got all bent out of shape. So jill asked lily what her opinion was on the matter. She didn’t take my side, so…

Imani: I’m sorry it played out that way.

Nate: Me too. But I’m not surprised.

Imani: Okay. So, how did it end?

Nate: I walked out.

Imani: [ Laughs ] While jill was still on the call?

Nate: Not my proudest moment. But it doesn’t matter. Today was my last day. I’m leaving chancellor-winters.

Imani: [ Scoffs ] You know why I love halloween?

Sally: How could I have been so careless? What was I thinking?

Chloe: You weren’T. Adam made your brain short-circuit.

Sally: I’m just grateful that nick is being so understanding, but if I make one more misstep, I’m history.

Chloe: So, you want to fix this?

Sally: Do you know a way out?

Chloe: You have to stay the hell away from adam from now on.

Sally: Okay, I get that you hate him and you want the rest of the world to despise him, too, but did you ever once think about it from my perspective? Did you ever once, for one minute, think that, after all of these years of heartache, that i actually thought that I finally found the person that i absolutely belong with?

Chloe: You don’t belong with adam. No one does. You are better than that.

Sally: Okay, I am tired of all of these warnings about how terrible he is.

Chloe: After all the things that adam has done, you don’t under–

Sally: Okay, I have also been accused of despicable acts, alright? And the more people criticize me and try to control me, I just want to fight back. That is why I believe i understand adam maybe better than anyone else. Adam and I are cut from the same cloth, and I can’t just erase him from my heart because you and everyone else tells me to.

Chloe: Okay! You throw away your whole future! I — I swear — I’m done.

[ Door slams ]

Nick: Hey.

Victoria: Hey. So, tell me — what did sally have to say for herself?

Nick: I’m not gonna get into details. Let’s just say there were extenuating circumstances. Sally messed up. She took ownership of it.

Victoria: Nick, I’m sorry, but that’s just not good enough. And I understand if you don’t want to go over to newman media. Frankly, I want you to stay. But we need to come up with other viable options if sally’s not up to task.

Nick: I really, really think she is.

Victoria: Well, I think the marketing department would beg to differ. I’ve already received several messages from them expressing their irritation that the ceo of newman media couldn’t even show up to the summit.

Nick: Come on. Who hasn’t missed a meeting?

Victoria: At bare minimum, you should make it clear to her that there will be no second chances.

Nick: Seems pretty harsh, vick. Who doesn’t deserve a second chance?

Victoria: We have overlooked a lot when it’s come to her. And there are plenty of good executives out there. Nate, for example. I just ran into him. He let me know that he’s looking for a new job.

Nick: Why would he leave his family’s company?

Victoria: I don’t know. I have no idea what went wrong over there, but he’s ambitious. And his drive to make a mark in the business world seems stronger than ever.

Imani: Listen. This disagreement with devon is no reason to walk out on chancellor-winters.

Maybe it’s a sign that i shouldn’t be there — because nothing that’s right should be this difficult.

Imani: Is this about elena? Because I know she was urging you to quit.

Nate: No, this is entirely my call. I cannot fight with devon anymore.

Imani: But where will you go?

Nate: Someplace I’m appreciated.

Imani: I appreciate you.

Nate: [ Sighs ]

Imani: [ Chuckles ]

Nate: Thank you. But unfortunately, you don’t have the authority to green-light my projects. Devon does.

Imani: Yeah, well, there may be another solution besides walking away. If you leave now, it’ll confirm to devon that he was right, that you couldn’t handle the position.

Nate: I don’t have any other choice. I have played by devon’s rules, and I defied them, as well. Nothing has worked.

Imani: Hmm. Well, then maybe [Clears throat] It’s time to start thinking a little more, uh…ruthlessly.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 grandpa, did you see my backwards somersault? I sure did. You were great. Uncle chase taught me. Yeah, and you know who taught me? Your grandpa. I did indeed. You look a little out of practice, son. Maybe violet should give you a few pointers. Ha ha. Hey, just ran into, uh, a buddy of mine. Dad, this is curtis ashford. Uh, curtis, this is my dad, gregory chase. Nice to meet you, curtis. Nice to meet you. Finn has told me all about your club, the savoy. Not that he’s ever taken me there. Not taking you there. Well, feel free to drop by any time as my guests. Drinks will be on me. Finn — finn can fend for himself.

[ Grunts ] What about me?

[ Laughs ] Well, I tell you what. I will open my place at lunchtime. And you can have all the shirley temples you can drink. Yay!

[ Laughter ] All right. Congrats on your engagement, by the way. Finn told me. Oh, the, uh, good old G.H. Grapevine, huh? Portia might have let something slip. You’re getting married? Can I come? I love weddings.

[ Laughter ]

[ Sighs ] Oh, lord, forgive me, but it’s for a good cause. Okay.

[ Exhales deeply ] Stella. Are you looking for me? Ms. Wu.

[ Chuckles ] I’m sorry. We’re closed. The club is always open for me. I’ll have an iced tea, no sugar, while I wait for my guest to join me. We don’t have any iced tea. I’m sure it won’t take you long to make some. Ms. Wu, thank you for meeting with me. I’m, uh, cody bell. Called you earlier. I’m not bleeding, so maybe that’s why you don’t recognize me. I assume you’re not back for another beating.

[ Chuckles ] No, definitely not. Uh, in fact, I have a proposition for you. Thank you for having lunch with me, dad. Thank you for inviting me.

[ Chuckles ] What’s up? Why does everyone always assume that I have an ulterior motive? Fine. I have something to tell you. Let’s hear it. Chase and i are dating. Wow. That’s great. It is? Isn’t it? Of course, it is. I just…

[ Scoffs ] Never mind. Are you happy? What do you think? Brook lynn, if you’re happy, that’s all that matters to me. So, has chase decided on who his manager is? What are you talking about? I’m chase’s manager, just like we planned. Uh-oh. Hey, elizabeth. Hey. What can I do for you? Uh, I need to see the E.R. Intake records for the night ava jerome was stabbed. I need to see if anyone else checked in with similar wounds. You think someone’s running around port charles attacking people? I don’t know. I mean, I doubt it. We didn’t get any other calls at the pcpd, but, uh, just thought I’d double check. Yeah, yeah, sure. Uh, but if no one else was attacked, does this mean that — it would mean that ava wasn’t the victim of a random act of violence. I think her attacker knew her. You have any idea who attacked you? I don’T. Why do I get the feeling you’re not telling me something?

[ Monitor beeping ] Who am I protecting you from, ava? I have no idea. You’re too smart to play dumb with me. Now, frank says you don’t want nikolas to visit. You were staying at the metro court before you got attacked. Obviously, you and nikolas were going through some problems. Do you think he would try to kill you?


What just happened here? You were happy that chase and I are dating. You seemed supportive of the idea of me managing chase’s singing career. So what changed? The other day, when you and leo were looking at all those photographs of eddie maine, I started to remember what it was like to work with your mom, when lois managed me and the band.

[ Chuckles ] It was really tough on our relationship. Mom left you because you chose elq over family. Sound familiar? Then I wish you well. Look, chase and I, we share a common goal, okay? To make him a star and rub linc’s nose in it. Sharing common interests bring people closer. Like when chase and i worked together to protect bailey lou from peter august. That’s when things changed between us. And look, I admit it, at first we couldn’t stand each other. That probably had something to do with me hitting him two or three times. You think? But we got past it. But there still is potential for friction, brook lynn. Okay. Like with all couples. Look, my point is, trying to maintain a romantic relationship while also conducting a business relationship is hard, sometimes impossible. Dad, chase and i make a good team, okay? We can succeed at anything we try. And if you don’t? You know, look, I-if this is a bad time, I can just come back at another time. No, not at all. Why did you want to see me? Um, it’s about curtis… and his engagement to portia. Oh. I hope you’re not angry you weren’t told right away. No, no, I understand. Um, but you and I, we didn’t even speak about the engagement last night. Are you avoiding? No, not at all. I almost witnessed the proposal myself and then got a chance to congratulate curtis and portia. Were those sincere congratulations? How much pain were you hiding? Their engagement was hardly a shock. I mean, they did buy a house together. Still, it had to be difficult. You loved curtis so very much. Curtis has moved on, and I need to do the same. Our marriage has been over for a while, after all. About that… I like my shirley temples with two cherries, not one.

[ Laughs ] Okay. [ Laughs ] Duly noted. Yeah.

[ Cellphone rings ] Oh. Excuse me. Yeah. Hey, n’neka, what’s up? N’neka: Hey, boss. So…ms. Wu is here meeting someone at the club. I told her we’re closed, and she said the club is open for her. Okay, thank you. I’ll be there as soon as I can. I can’t imagine what you could offer that I might want. Well, I’m sure you remember that I am really good at poker. Mm. You fleeced my high rollers, leaving me with very unhappy patrons. As I explained that night, my players come to relax, have a good time, not lose their shirts in a few hands. Right. So your associate worked me over after you got your money back

[Chuckles] And left me with a pathetic $50 — not even enough to feed a horse in oats. Your point? I want in on the next game. You have the $10,000 buy-in? Okay. Hear me out. So you stake me, and I can pay you $15,000 on the back end. I promise I won’t clean anyone out. I’ll just lighten their wallets a little bit, even though your players can afford to lose. Just the one game? Why? Well, I need to ride off into the sunset permanently. Couple bucks in my belt will help set me up in a new place. Don’t you earn a salary working for the quartermaines at their stable? I’ve got a lot of debts that I got to pay off.

[ Exhales deeply ] I’m still broke. There’s no guarantee you’ll win. What if you lose my $15,000 and more?

[ Chuckles ] I won’t lose. No, I’m a sure thing. So what do you say? I wanted to go back in the water and practice my somersault. Please? You be careful, okay? Well, I guess that’s my cue.

[ Laughter ] Let’s go. Come on.

[ Grunts ] You’re getting bigger. I’ll grab an iced tea with you.

[ Sighs ] When you were in first grade, you had the biggest crush on this little girl that sat next to you in class. Gretchen? W-wait. Where is this going? She wouldn’t give you the time of day, and you couldn’t understand why. You thought about her all the time. You did everything you could to get her to pay attention to you. And the look on your face then was just like — the look on my face now. Something going on with elizabeth?

[ Inhales deeply ] I though things had gotten better between you two. The other night at the quartermaine picnic… elizabeth finally admitted she has a problem. No one else with a stab wound came in the night of the picnic. Hmm. All right. Well, thanks for checking. How’s the investigation going? Ah, you know, it’s, uh, early days. It’s too bad that ava couldn’t identify her attacker. Yeah. I mean, we’re still talking to everyone who was at the picnic. Something will come up. And no one suspicious has crossed your radar? Dante: Not as of yet. How about you? Anything of importance from that night that you can remember? Nikolas would never stabbed me. Really? Then why you acting like you think he’s guilty? And if he is, why are you protecting him?

[ Monitor beeping ] A little thing called love. Really? You don’t love anybody but yourself, ava. So much for playing nice. If it wasn’t for avery, you being her mother, I would let you and nikolas just, you know, tear each other to pieces. Please leave. Really? You want me — you want me to, uh, take frank with me? I didn’t think so. You gotta come clean, ava. What happened with esme?


you don’t think I can make chase a star. Brook lynn, I’m just trying to manage your expectations. You know better than anyone that only a small fraction of hopefuls make it in the music business. Thanks for the support, dad. I’m just being realistic. Come on, be honest with yourself. The things that you like about chase as a boyfriend may drive you crazy as his manager, or drive him crazy as your client. Just saying. Well, that worked out for the best, didn’t it? You’ll have a gig in no time. Brook lynn, you went way too far tonight.

[ Sighs ]

[ Singsong voice ] Violet’s got a crush. No, I don’T.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Normal voice ] I saw the way you were just looking at him getting out of the pool. I don’t have a crush on tommy richardson. He’s not my boyfriend.

Violet and tommy sitting in a tree

k-I-s-s who are you sitting in a tree with, uncle chase? Who is your girlfriend?

[ Chuckles ] Finn: It’s been hard. I just — I hate seeing elizabeth suffering. But she’s opened up to you, right? She thinks there’s something in her past that’s adversely affecting her and… she’s asked for some help. That’s progress.She’s not going alone anymore. I just — I wish I knew how to help her, dad. If you need to talk, here I am. Thank you. I — I appreciate you. What about elizabeth? I mean, besides you, she has a ton of family and friends. So she has a great support system, yeah? Yeah, she does. Although, I’m not sure everyone in her life has her best interests at heart. Was there anything you forgot to mention when jordan took your statement? No. Sorry. I have nothing else to add. Is the pcpd any closer to finding my wife’s attacker? The investigation is ongoing. Thanks, elizabeth.

[ Scoffs ] What? Why we need to talk… in private. How about it? Will you give me a seat at the table? Okay, fine. I’ll let you in the game, provided you work for me. What does that mean? You talk like you can control the game’s outcome. Can you ensure that another player wins big, too? Sure. I mean, as long as they’re not completely hopeless at poker. I’ll stake your buy-in if you follow my orders. You’re allowed to win, but I may ask you to help or hinder another player along the way. Losing your nerve? We’re not just talking about one game anymore, are we? You might want to reconsider your desire to leave town, at least for now. You’ll be making more than you ever dreamed of.

[ Exhales deeply ] Maybe so. I’m not crazy about taking orders from anyone, though. Think it over. But don’t take too long. I’m not known for my patience. I realized how hard I was on you at first. So bullheaded, I refused to attend your wedding to curtis. But you did come. And that meant so much to the both of us. After that, I was team jordan all the way. You refused to give up on our marriage, even when curtis and i separated.

[ Sighs ] Unfortunately, it was already too late. I kept too much hidden from him, and I couldn’t walk it back. You two were so good together. Except when we weren’T. But why are you bringing this up now? Are you opposed to curtis’ engagement? I thought you liked portia. Oh, I-I do. I do. But — but…

[ Inhales deeply ] It’s not about portia. It’s about me. What I did. How sorry I am. Stella, what did you do? Why are you asking about esme? She’s gone, isn’t she? To europe. Isn’t that what the cops are saying? Come on, ava. You know more about esme’s disappearance than the cops. Now you’re a mind reader, huh? Is that more lucrative than selling coffee… among other things? Well, you know what? I remember when you came to me and you wanted me to make sure that, uh, trina’s jurors found her not guilty. I said, “it makes more sense if I — if I talk to esme.” And you said, “no, no, no. Your guys aren’t gonna be able to find her.” So when you were in surgery… and we all thought you weren’t gonna make it, nikolas was a little strange. Strange how?

[ Whispers ] Like he was hiding something. That’s funny. ‘Cause — ’cause I heard that nikolas was frantic, that he was the picture of a devoted husband. We both know better than that. The world is full of make or break moments. Especially if you have postmenopausal osteoporosis and a high risk for fracture, it’s time to make your move to help reduce your risk of fracture with prolia. Only prolia is proven to help strengthen and protect bones from fracture with 1 shot every 6 months. Do not take prolia if you have low blood calcium, are pregnant, are allergic to it, or take xgeva. Serious allergic reactions like low blood pressure, trouble breathing, throat tightness, face, lip or tongue swelling, rash, itching or hives have happened. Tell your doctor about dental problems, as severe jaw bone problems may happen or new or unusual pain in your hip, groin, or thigh, as unusual thigh bone fractures have occurred. Speak to your doctor before stopping, skipping or delaying prolia, as spine and other bone fractures have occurred. Prolia can cause serious side effects, like low blood calcium, serious infections, which could need hospitalization, skin problems, and severe bone, joint, or muscle pain. Don’t wait for a break. Call your doctor now and ask how prolia can help you. Frustrated with occasional digestive upsets? Align women’s probiotic naturally helps promote a balanced gut and soothe occasional digestive upsets. Plus, it supports vaginal health. It’s recommended by gastroenterologists two-times more than any other probiotic brand. Try align. Finally. I told you I was on the clock, man. What’s so urgent? Why is your boss out to get me? Remember when I had that last stroke and I — I felt like I had forgotten something that was really important? Vaguely. Isn’t that common among stroke victims? Yeah, it is. But I finally remembered what it was, what was bothering me. And I am so sorry. I — you’d think by now I would have learned my lesson. But there’s no fool like an old fool. W-what did you do, stella? I meddled in your personal business — yours and curtis’. How? Happened right here in this office. I took the envelope that contained your signed divorce papers. They were never filed. You and curtis are still married. Thank you. That didn’t take you long. I saw your bartender call you. What are you doing here, and who did you have a meeting with? My meeting is none of your business. I stayed because I want to deliver a gift. Oh, that you’re gonna take your poker game somewhere else.

[ Laughs ] You have a wonderful sense of humor, curtis. No. This gift is my way of thanking you for the continued use of the savoy. I’m upgrading the club’s audio board. Not necessary. Your live music nights are very successful. An advanced audio system can only enhance your customers’ experience. Have you thought about focusing more on local artists? I’ve been hearing about a singer. You know what? You can stop right there. Ms. Wu, need I remind you that the savoy is my business, not yours. Mr. Quartermaine. Hey, chase. Is, uh, brook lynn here? I texted her that I was coming over. Yeah, she is here. I’m sure she’ll be back soon. Um… would you like some iced tea? I’m — I’m good. Thanks. And thanks again for helping me find the right look for… me being a professional singer.

[ Chuckles ] So, brook lynn tells me that, uh, you two are a couple now. Yeah. Is this the part where you tell me if I hurt your daughter — I hurt you? Yeah. I’m thinking about it. Like, I promise, I — I only want to make brook lynn happy. Mm-hmm. You know, it’s not always possible in relationships. But brook lynn is an adult, and I’ve never been able to keep her under glass. But I will hurt you very badly if you ever hurt her, in addition to what she will do to you. I-I know better than to cross brook lynn. If I’ve learned one thing, she can be ruthless. Elizabeth is friends with this guy — nikolas cassadine. They were together years ago. Sounds like you don’t trust the guy. Did their relationship end badly? Think he wants to hurt her? No. No. But he’s the reason hayden left town. Kind of guy that’s always in it for himself first and doesn’t care if the people around him get hurt. There’s a chunk of time I can’t account for after I left finn and before you found me — possibly the time when ava was attacked.

[ Scoffs ] I don’t believe for one second that you’re the one that stabbed ava.

[ Sighs ] Okay, so then when you lied to jordan about being with me, was that to protect me… or you? Ava: Nikolas couldn’t have stabbed me. He was with elizabeth at the time. That’s what he told the police. Well, I’m sure they confirmed his alibi with elizabeth. Yeah. Nikolas and elizabeth have been friends since they were teenagers. You really believe that pure-as-the-driven-snow elizabeth baldwin would lie to the cops to protect nikolas? Well, elizabeth is loyal to her friends. She thinks the best of everybody. But, you know, now that we establish that, you know, she could cover for nikolas, why do you think he stabbed you? Come on. Something happened with esme.


Chase, hi. What are you doing here? I texted you I was coming over. Oh, you did? Really? Oh, not that it matters. I can come back another time if it’s more convenient. Actually, chase, I’d like to continue our discussion. So brook lynn told me that she’s now officially your manager. Dad. You know, there’s a hell of a lot of pressure involved with getting a music career off the ground. I mean, it could lead to a lot of arguments. Don’t you have somewhere else to be? I suppose I’m not telling you anything that you don’t already know. It’s good to see you, chase. And I am sure brook lynn will take very good care of you. Alone at last. Yeah. Is your dad, right? Are you gonna take good care of me? Oh, you can count on it. I will. I hope he didn’t get in your head. No, he didn’T. Although, I have been thinking the same thing about what the music business can do to relationships. Oh, no. Magazines are right. Women end up dating their fathers. Okay. [ Chuckles ] First, be serious. I’m being serious.

[ Clears throat ] Okay. And second, now that we’re dating… do you think going after linc is still worth it? My boss commissioner ashford? No. Mac scorpio. He’s chief of detectives, right? Yeah. What about mac? Well, he’s asking a lot of questions about me, treating me like a suspect in this attack at the quartermaines’. Mac thinks you stabbed ava jerome? Never even met her. But, you know [Chuckles] Rich people, they always blame the help. I’m working that case. Mac hasn’t said anything to me about bringing you in for questioning. No, he didn’t talk to me directly. But he asked britt a whole bunch of questions, which is ridiculous ’cause we’ve only been on one date, you know? Picnic didn’t count. All right, okay. Hold — hold on. Britt said mac thinks you’re a suspect? Well, she said that he asked her a bunch of questions. It’s — it’s pretty easy to fill in the blanks, you know? Media’s been all over this attack on the ava jerome woman and [Sighs]… Is your boss trying to pin it on me so he can say that he solved it? No. No, mac wouldn’t do that. I’m being paranoid? Depends. Have you done anything that would be considered illegal? No, no. Hell, no. All right. Okay. That doesn’t seem defensive at all. Okay, well, I’m the new guy in town, right? People tend to blame the outsider as soon as something bad happens. Okay, look. I’m here telling you relax. Mac’s gonna follow the evidence. That’s all he’s gonna do. I don’t want any more trouble with the police, man, had enough already. Well, that proves my point exactly. Back then, you were guilty. I wasn’t the only one. I would never presume to tell you how to run your business. I just want to lend a helping hand. Why? I’m invested in the savoy’s success. My players have grown fond of the club. They feel safe and comfortable here. Why your sudden interest in music? Selina: Has curtis given you any trouble? Nah, just a misunderstanding. I, uh, ran into a singer — harrison chase. You heard of him? The detective on suspension. Yeah, uh, good singer, good guy. I thought he’d be a good fit for the savoy. I appreciate you thinking of us and making the connection. I’m sure curtis will, too. I know what I like. Harrison chase brought the house down when he played at open mic night on the haunted star. I booked harrison chase. His contact canceled and said that he was no longer chase’s manager. Would you be willing to rebook mr. Chase? Why do you care? I know a thing or two about business and how to keep one profitable.

[ Sighs ] Harrison chase could be your big discovery and give the club the reputation of spotlighting new talent. Think about it. Yeah, uh, jermaine, did you find it? What? You really think that I stabbed ava? Nikolas… no, no, I don’t — I don’t want to think that. But then why were you so quick to give us a false alibi? How can we be sure it was false? The police don’t know the exact time of ava’s attack. Maybe it was when you and I were together. Then why didn’t you just say that? Come on. You’ve been acting very suspiciously. Have I? Elizabeth, what have I done since ava was attacked? I protected you. I’ve worried myself sick whether my wife was gonna live or die. I mean… I have been nothing but frustrated and concerned because the person who attacked ava is still out there. And I feel damn helpless because there isn’t anything I can do to try to catch him. And instead of understanding, you’re gonna think the worst of me? Is that — is that because… what you’re going through so much lately? Because your nerves are frail. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a minute. Are you saying that I’m imagining your sneaky behavior? You know, if elizabeth had a — a known infection, I would track it down, I would identify it, and then I would design a protocol to treat it. Like you did with harry. Yeah. But this psychology thing, dad, I… I’ve made a real mess of it at times, you know? And please, please don’t tell me some story about when I was 5 and I went through every encyclopedia in the house trying to find a cure for the common cold. Why would I tell you that story? Yeah, to remind me that I have this way, that I always have to try to find the right answer. I will tell you what I told you then. You have to learn to read before you tackle the encyclopedia. So, in other words, don’t rush. I’d imagine there’s a reason why elizabeth repressed her memories. She can’t work through them until she’s truly ready to face what they are. Esme was a manipulative, spiteful, little viper that nikolas let into our home without consulting me. And she did everything she could to come between us. Even spencer saw her true colors. But nikolas is so stupid. Keep going ’cause it’s really interesting. Uh, but nikolas was stupid. Stupid ’cause he’s a man… like you. Like you with carly — alienating her and your family. Okay, this isn’t — this isn’t about me. It’s about you, nikolas, and esme. Something’s going on with esme. Why are you and nikolas covering it up? And why haven’t you told the cops that you think it was your husband who attacked you?


ah. I’m sorry. I shouldn’thave brought that up. You did me a solid back then. No reason to mess up both of our lives. Put all that behind you, though? 100%. Cops don’t like me. Never have. [ Chuckles ] Never will. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, hey. I’m a cop. All right, true. Okay, other cops have an aversion to me. Well, you know, uh, mac scorpio’s one of the fairest cops, fairest people, I know. And he was a friend of dominique stanton’s when she was in portugal. Yeah, yeah. So he told me. So maybe that’s why he’s got interest in you.

[ Sighs ] Maybe. Still, might be time for me to move on. Yeah? And you really think you’re ready to go? The divorce was never finalized… because of you? I just wanted to give you and curtis a chance to work things out. It was an unconscionable act of hubris. You had no right to play god with our marriage! What happened to the divorce papers? I don’t know.

[ Sighs ] I suffered the stroke at kelly’s and everything after that is — is still a blank.

[ Scoffs ] This is unbelievable. You are unbelievable! I know. I — and I realize there are not enough apologies in the world to make this right. I would have never let it go this far. But I lost track. I lost memory of — of taking the envelope from your desk. And then after…

[ Sighs ] …Hearing about curtis’ engagement to portia, some of it came back. Does curtis know? No.

[ Sighs ] I wanted you to know first. And…

[ Sighs ] …If sometime in the future, if you could just find it in your heart to forgive me — but, jordan, I understand if you can’T.

[ Knock on door ] I’m in the middle of something. Can it wait? I am sorry to interrupt, but it’s important. Auntie stella, what are you doing here? Don’t act like I’m the crazy one when I know you’re hiding something. I don’t think you’re crazy, but I do think you’re overreacting. Okay. All right, maybe — maybe I am. I don’t know. Maybe I am just crazy. You wouldn’t be the first one to think so. What are you — what are you talking about? I thought when you signed out of shadybrook everything was okay. Nikolas, something is happening to me. I can’t explain it, but my life is out of control right now.

[ Sighs ] How can I help? It will be okay. I promise. Did I hear what I think I just heard? Now that we’re dating, you want to back out of our deal? No, I’m not backing out. I’m just asking the question. Brook lynn, you and I could have something really great, but you working as my manager didn’t get off to a great start. What do you mean? When you asked sonny to use his influence to book me at the savoy. Well, I thought we got past that. We did. But I know you. And I know we’re not always gonna see eye to eye. Oh, so any friction that’s between us will be my fault? No, no, no. It’s — it’s — um… [ Sighs ] It’s just, I don’t want to do anything that could jeopardize our relationship. So maybe we should just drop this plan to get revenge on linc.


Okay. So, you’ve got concerns. Our romantic relationship is new. We don’t want to do anything to mess it up. We sure don’T. But you’re being an idiot. What? Just because we’re kissing doesn’t mean we can’t get past an argument or two. Chase, it’s not a myth. We can have it all, and we will. Okay, brook lynn…

[ Chuckles ] …I want you to be honest with me. Do you really think we can make linc look bad without letting revenge destroy us as a couple? Of course! Look, neither of us are fragile flowers, and we’ve got a bond that can’t be broken. Certainly not over a dirt bag like linc. Gotta love your passion. I mean, I love my job at the quartermaines’. And, you know, it’s been great getting to reconnect with you, make new friends, even if [Chuckles] Some of them are driving me crazy. So honestly, nah. I’m not ready to leave port charles. Yeah, it’s good. You want me to stay? Yeah, man. It’s been good reconnecting with you, too, even if I have had to arrest you a few times.

[ Laughs ] Well, I’ll try and behave from now on. Yeah, well, I will hold you to that.

[ Scoffs ] Meanwhile, I gotta get back to work. But, uh… listen, I promise you I won’t let you take the fall for the attack on ava jerome. I have faith in you, bro.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Cellphone rings ] Hello? Yeah, ms. Wu, it’s, uh, cody bell. Do you have an answer for me, mr. Bell? I could use some extra cash. This means you’ll be my ringer in the poker games? Deal me in. I need a reason to visit jordan? She’s still family.

[ Scoffs ] What brings you barreling through my door, curtis? I just got off the phone with my attorney. Apparently, there’s no record of our divorce. How does something like that happen? You think it’s easy wondering if nikolas attacked me, that I enjoy having so little faith in him? Here’s the deal, ava. I-I’m not gonna allow… for avery to lose her mother.

[ Monitor beeping ] If I find out that nikolas stabbed you, I’m not gonna let that stand. Oh, I’m not gonna let nikolas get away with hurting me. I promise you that. I should get going. Okay. Finn. Finn: Nik. I’ll talk to you soon. Yeah.

[ Door closes ] You okay? I totally lost my cool with him. Was he being an ass? No, I was. I asked him why he lied to jordan about us being together when ava was attacked, and he insisted that he was just trying to help me out. But…? But I can’t shake this feeling that there’s more going on. How does that make you an ass? I’ve known nikolas for a long time, and I know when he’s hiding something. You didn’t accuse him of attacking ava? I came close, even though I don’t really think he did it. And then I-I… totally overreacted when I thought he was calling me crazy. Elizabeth, you’re not crazy. Thanks. But we both know something is happening to me. I’m losing time. And I think I have to tell the police that I don’t know if nikolas and I were together at the time of ava’s attack.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Sheila: Oh, grandma misses you so much.

Finn: Oh. I also need to schedule a consult–

[Hayes babbling]

Sheila: I just wanna hold you in my arms and never let go.

Finn: But please let them know.

Brooke: Look, I’ve tried to be nice about this, taylor, but if you refuse to respect certain boundaries.

Taylor: Boundaries?

Brooke: Yes, boundaries. Ridge is my husband, and hope is douglas’s mother. And if you try to undo those two things–

Taylor: I’m not trying to undo either of those things, brooke. They’re just happening naturally on their own. But the fact that you think I’m doing it to you tells& me everything I need to know.

Thomas: Oh.

Liam: You getting a few laps in?

Thomas: [Laughs] I had no idea you were here.

Liam: Sorry. Sorry. I, uh, actually I did text you, but, obviously, you don’t have your phone on you.

[Giggles]

Thomas: Obviously. What’s up?

Liam: Just– I was, uh, looking for douglas.

Thomas: Oh, he’s not here.

Liam: Where is he?

Thomas: Uh, he’s with steffy and kelly. Why?

Liam: Well, because I’m– I am here to pick him up. It’s time for douglas to come home.

Brooke: I don’t even know what you’re talking about. You have an agenda, taylor. You’re trying to uproot douglas out of the one stable, loving home he’s been in since caroline died.

Taylor: You know that is not what I’m trying to do. Thomas deserves to be with his son.

Brooke: Okay, fine. Hope is not stopping him at all. He’s always had full access to douglas.

Taylor: No, but he wants more now. And he deserves that.

Brooke: What if it’s too much too soon?

Taylor: Well, thomas doesn’t feel it is.

Brooke: Well, I don’t think he’s the best judge of that.

Taylor: Okay. And you are?

Brooke: Yes, I am. I’ve been there. I’ve seen it. I’ve witnessed it. Douglas is in a very stable, loving home with beth, and liam and my daughter.

Taylor: Yes. And I’m very grateful for that.

Brooke: Okay.

Taylor: But ouglas is thomas’ son.

Brooke: And hope& is douglas’ mother. His adoptive mother. And she has as many legal rights to him as thomas does.

Thomas: This is douglas’ home. This is the forrester family home. Right. His last name is forrester. So this is also his home.

Liam: I– what, wait. I think you know what I actually mean. Douglas has been here for days now. Hope has been trying to be understanding. But this is a lot that you’re asking.

Thomas: I’m asking to be a presence in my son’s life. A full-time presence. And douglas wants to spend more time with me as well. And I think hope understands that. But that’s not exactly why you’re here, is it?

Finn: No, that– yeah. I mean it would be great. But flying off to a medical conference

[Finn’s voice fades off]

Sheila: Grandma loves you so much. I hate being kept apart from you. It is the most painful thing in the world.

[ Hayes babbling]

Finn: But right now I’ve got a little boy who’s waiting for his dad to play with him. No, absolutely. I’m just– I’m still on the mend, so. Yeah. Tell him thank you. Okay, thanks. Bye-bye. Hey, bud. Sorry– how did I, uh, how did mr. Buddy end up on the floor? Hey, hayes. Sorry to take that call bud but I’m all yours now. Okay? What’s the #1 retinol brand

Taylor: I am not questioning hope’s rights as douglas’ legal guardian, and I’ve always been grateful to the love she has shown my grandson.

Brooke: But?

Taylor: But I’m just unsure at this moment why– why thomas actually signed those papers. They weren’t together at the time, and he was in a very bad place back then.

Brooke: Thomas was obsessed with my daughter.

Taylor: I know. I know. I remember.

Brooke: Do you also remember the harm that he caused?

Taylor: He was in a very bad place mentally. So naturally, the fact that he signed those adoption papers it’s always concerned me.

Liam: I really didn’t come here to get into all this. I just wanna pick up douglas and take him home.

Thomas: And I told–

Liam: I know he’s out. I got it. Whenever he gets back.

Thomas: But that might not be for some time.

Liam: Then I will wait.

Thomas: Okay. Suit yourself. But you should know douglas did invite his friend over they wanna do, like, a cookout thing tonight, and I think they’re kinda stoked about it. Why are you reacting that way?

> Liam: Oh my god. See? You keep saying you’re a changed man, and yet you pull the same crap over and over again.

Thomas: Like you would care. Like you would ever think that I’m a changed man. You know what? I don’t care. Do you think I love my son? Do you think my son loves me?

Liam: Yeah.

Thomas: Great. That’s all that matters. I wanna be with my son. I wanna be a father to him. And I wanna have a deepening bond. And you know what? In the last couple of days since he’s been here, I’ve seen that in action. We’ve been getting closer and closer. And I think as a father, you would understand that. As a son, you would encourage it. But you know what? You’re doing the same thing you always do. I’ll tell you what, liam, if you ever try and come between my son and me, there’s gonna be hell to pay.

[ Knocking at door ]

Finn: What did you forget? Ah, zende. Hey. Sorry. Um, thought you were steffy.

Finn: I’m sorry to disappoint. Um, here, come in.

Zende: Thank you. Thank you. I’m guessing the mrs. Is not here?

Finn: Oh, she’s, um, with kelly, uh, and douglas. Was she expecting you?

Zende: No, not really. I was eager to drop off these new sketches, though. It’s a bit of a different vibe from me.

Finn: Oh, you made a special trip?

Zende: Yeah, well, that was my cover anyway. What I really wanted to do is get some playtime in with my baby cousins.

Finn: Kelly is gonna be disappointed she missed you. Hayes, too. But I literally just put him down for a nap, so.

Zende: That’s a bummer. Wow, man. To think you almost missed your chance at all this, all because of sheila.

Sheila: Just those few precious moments holding you in my arms again, hayes.

[ Sighs ] I just wish it could have been longer.

[ Door opens ]

Sheila: What are you doing?

Deacon: Just took a break. I wanted to check on you.

Sheila: [Giggles] You mean check up on me?

Deacon: Sheila. Look, I know it seems like I’m your jailer, but I’m not. I’m just trying to look out for you.

Sheila: [Laughs] How sweet.

Deacon: Okay, you know what? Fine. You know, you wanna poke fun? Go ahead. I’m the only one who knows you’re still alive. So guess what? You stuck with me.

Sheila: Aw, got my son and my grandson.

Deacon: Except you don’t, sheila. I mean, look, if finn ever figures out that you concocted this whole bear mauling scheme and you’re still roaming around free I–

Sheila: You know that maternal pull, it’s always there. And wanting to be with finn and my grandson, that doesn’t go away. It’s all I think about, you know. I dream about that. If only things could be different. If only.

Why do dermatologists

choose dove?

Brooke: I can’t believe what you’re suggesting. Hope loves douglas as deeply as if she’d given birth to him.

Taylor: I have never questioned that. Not once. But hope could still be in my grandson’s life without having to seek legal control through paperwork.

Brooke: What? She has given douglas a stable, loving life. She’s been a wonderful influence for him.

Taylor: Oh, of course, she has. Yes, she has. But hope and thomas share custody. But the thing is, is she hasn’t really shared. Douglas has spent the majority of his time at your cabin with hope and liam and not my son. And see, now it’s time for thomas to get his son back. It is time for douglas to be with his father and the rest of the forrester family.

Liam: Can I clarify something with you? This is not me coming between a father and a son. That is not what’s happening here. But if you are the changed man you say you are, you would at least acknowledge that staying with hope and beth and me is what’s best for douglas right now.

Thomas: I’m not sure that that’s what’s best for douglas.

Liam: How? How can you think that? You know how happy he is over with us.

Thomas: Yes. And he’s happy over here, too. And hope has seen it for herself.

Liam: Yes. Which is why he should exist in both worlds. He should have both. But at this point, dude, you are– you are holding the kid and you are using it as a reason to get hope over here more and more.

Thomas. Okay. Stop. Stop. If you’re insinuating–

Liam: I’m not– I’m not insinuating. I’m telling you that you should look in the mirror right now because I think that your obsession with hope is kicking back up again. I really do.

[ Thomas scoffs ]

Zende: You know, man as someone who was adopted too, I’m sure you’ve been dealing with some pretty complicated emotions. I mean, li raised you. She’s your mother in every sense of the word, but sheila only gave birth to you. There’s no denying that. But to know what sheila did to you, to steffy, that is a lot to deal with emotionally.

Finn: Yeah. It’s, um, it’s been a challenging time for us. But I’ve just been focused on steffy and kelly and hayes, the family.

Zende: Uh, as you should. It’s just that, ah, I don’t mean to pry.

Finn: No, it’s okay. And you can. You can relate more than others. I appreciate you checking in. But the truth is, sheila, she’s gone. I never have to worry about her or think about her ever again. She’d never come back.

Sheila: I know what you’re going to say. That I’m dead to finn and hayes is never gonna know his grandmother.

Deacon: That’s how it is. That’s how it has to be. No, I–

Sheila: It’s not the way that I want it to be.

Deacon: Look, sheila. I get it, alright? I’m a parent, too. But you know hope is my whole world. But our situations are not the same. I mean, the stakes, they are astronomical. If you try and see hayes or finn again, you can never see them again.

Limu emu & doug

Brooke: Douglas can spend time with thomas and with the forrester’s any time he wants.

Taylor: Oh.-Brooke: Hope has made that abundantly clear.

Taylor: Okay, but you know that this isn’t about an occasional sleepover anymore. Thomas wants a permanent arrangement, and it’s only fair considering the amount of time he’s lost with his son.

Brooke: And that is not hope’s fault.

Taylor: I didn’t say that it was. But the fact is, is that thomas and hope share custody. But she hasn’t been doing that. She’s been keeping douglas to herself.

Brooke: What are you talking about, taylor? Hope stepped up. She gave douglas a loving, stable home when thomascouldn’T.

Thomas: And now he can. That little boy deserves a relationship with his father, he’s going to have it. Thomas is ready to be a loving and devoted father to his son.

Thomas: There it is. That’s what this is about. You’re acting like you’re concerned about douglas, even though there’s no reason to be. When really you’re just concerned about hope and think that I might still be obsessed with her.

Liam: Okay. All right. You tell me, then. Should I be concerned? Actually, no. You know what? Scratch that. More to the point. Should you be concerned? Should douglas be concerned? Should your family be concerned? Because the truth is, you’re the only one that truly knows if your obsession with hope is starting back up again. I mean, you’re standing here, you’re saying that you regret all the things you’ve done in the past, but here you are and you’re doing it again, right? You– you’re keeping douglas over here. You’re using it to woo hope over for visits. By the way, I’m not getting these invitations. Only hope. Not me. Do you know what that tells me? It tells me you’re enjoying the fantasy of you, hope, and douglas as a nuclear family. And if your obsession is starting back up again, you and I know what happens. We know where this goes. You will lose control. And I’m so– the only difference is this time, I’m– I’m not just gonna wait around for it to happen. Okay? My job is to protect hope and beth and douglas, even if that means from you at all costs.

Deacon: I know this is rough for you. Should probably have my head examined for letting you stay here, but I feel for you. I do. I know how much you love finn and hayes, and I can see that this is breaking your heart. Not being able to hold them and laugh with them. But that’s just how it has to be, sheila. You have to accept this. I gotta get back to work. You gonna be okay?

Deacon: I have to go.

[ Hayes babbling ]

[ Sheila giggles ]

Finn: Oh, bud, did you have a bad dream? Oh, it’s okay. Alright. Daddy’s here. And I’mma make everything okay. I’d never let anyone or anything harm you. Okay? All right. Here, let me get mr. Giraffe for you.

Sheila: Oh, it’s like I still– still feel you in my arms. I don’t care what deacon says. I am gonna be part of hayes’ and finn’s life again. I– I will somehow.

Phyllis: Boy, did Diane come to you crying about the article, Jack? Claiming that I was the one who hatched it?

Jack: When I first came to you, you claimed you wanted nothing to do with that reporter. But that wasn’t true, was it? Because you conveniently omitted the fact that you convinced her to use Diane as her subject.

Phyllis: I was just messing with Diane. It’s fun to do. And, honestly, she was sitting right here. If I wanted to create problems, I would have been more discreet. And it’s Diane’s own fault. She was sucking up to Talia, sucking up to an investigative journalist. If she didn’t want the heat, she shouldn’t have run into the kitchen, quite honestly.

Jack: She shouldn’t have to protect herself. No one deserves to be dragged through the mud like that.

Phyllis: Oh god, I cannot understand why you are so mad about this article. All of it has been published before. All of it. And it’s not like it wasn’t true. It’s all true. But yet again, I’m the one under suspicion for all the horrible things that Diane has done and that were published in that piece.

Kyle: What Summer is so politely trying to explain, because she’s good at her job and also at navigating company politics, is that we don’t need this many chefs in the kitchen.

Adam: Mm. Well, I’m not giving any opinions. I’m just observing.

Kyle: Could you give me a little moment alone with —

Summer: You know what? I’m just gonna let you handle this one, babe.

Kyle: You showed up. You observed. The best thing you can do now is to smile, give a polite wave, and wish everyone a great photo shoot. In other words, get out of the way and let the people who need to do their jobs do them.

Billy: So, I assume you’re here for a little afternoon pick-me-up, sorting through all the personnel changes at Jabot.

Jack: Yes, now that we’ve acquired Marchetti, I have a few more faces and names I have to remember.

Billy: Yeah, sure, but I’m talking about one employee in particular.

Jack: I knew exactly what you were talking about.

Billy: Adam’s been on the job for about 3 hours now. Has he burned the place down?

Jack: Hasn’t caused any problems, and I’m not going to discuss him with you anymore. No, because you are so wise about business, though, I’d like to tap your brain about a couple of other subjects.

Jack: Billy, I know you think of yourself as a great poker player, but I feel like I’m getting a good read on you.

Billy: Is that right? You think I’m bluffing?

Jack: Not completely, but i think you’re working very hard to convince yourself.

Billy: Well, either you’re not hearing me correctly or you’re projecting.

Jack: I’m projecting? How so?

Billy: I think you’re feeling really nervous about the recent corporate hires, and you’re projecting your insecurities on me.

Jack: I didn’t realize I was being so transparent.

Billy: Jack, got to look a little deeper. You’ll find it.

Jack: I’m not so sure. Look, I’m very happy you are now focused on your business career.

Billy: Are you really?

Jack: Yes, I am. Hey, I have a long track record in business, and maybe you’ve heard about it. There is not a corporate boardroom situation that I have not faced.

Nick: Yeah. Sharing my thoughts and feelings with a total stranger — yeah, that’s not something I’m into at all.

Sharon: But we all need someone just to talk to sometimes, someone professional and impartial who you can confess absolutely anything to without judgment because their sole purpose is to help you.

Nick: Well, maybe I got spoiled just having you to talk to. Or maybe you’re tired of all my moaning and groaning and this is your subtle way of saying, “hey, let’s move things along.”

Sharon: Well, that’s not true and you know it. I hope that you’ll give some thought to what Adam and I said. I mean if we’re both telling you the same thing… maybe it’s worth listening to.

Faith: Yes, but first I need an iced tea.

Sharon: Coming up. Did you, um, talk to Noah?

Faith: Yep.

Sharon: Alright. Did you get everything done on your list?

Faith: I just have one thing left I have to do here. But the good news is, all of my stuff is in the car, and I’m pretty sure I have everything.

Nick: And the bad news is?

Faith: The car is so packed, I don’t gonna fit in it.

Chance: There we go. Oh, what a treat this is.

Abby: [Chuckles]

Chance: Spend the whole day off with you? Are you kidding?

[Sighs] I love how you read my mind and put this whole thing together. Thank you. Sent Dom and nanny to the zoo so we can get plenty of alone time together. And you put together just the most perfect playlist for a perfect picnic in the park.

Abby: I don’t remember telling you about a playlist.

Chance: You didn’t. I just know you.

Abby: [Chuckles] Well, if you like that, you are gonna be blown away by lunch. I went to that little French market that you love so much, and I bought the whole place out. Let’s see. There’s a baguette, still warm from the oven, brie with fig jam, rare tenderloin, a little chocolate mousse for dessert. And, look, a vintage bottle of —

Chance: What happened? Did something spill?

Abby: [Sighs] Apple slices and cheddar fish crackers — sippy cups? This is what I packed for Dominic.

Chance: [Chuckling] Oh, no.

Abby: [Chuckling] Aw!

Chance: Well, Louise is gonna have one hell of a lunch today. She’s going to wonder why you sent her to the zoo with wine.

Abby: Not just wine.

Vintage wine. Ugh, this is what happens when you have two identical picnic baskets.

Chance: Well, you know what? It is my lucky day because i have been craving apple slices and little fish crackers all day. So, I hope you brought enough for both of us. I’m about chow down.

    (#2429) (8:30PM ET) From bigbrothernetwork.com: Tonight On Big Brother 24: HOH & Nominations
    Big Brother 24 is back tonight at 8:30/7:30c with the latest Head of Household competition and nominations for the Final Five HGs. Note the 30-minute delay for NFL games today, but that could still be extended if needed.
    The dust was still settling from the Double Eviction event where we saw Terrance and Michael knocked out in succession when it was time to crown a new HOH and this was a doozy of a competition.
    Feeds were cut for hours overnight Thursday as the HGs performed in an individual competition of the black box. Set in a “Horror Fest” the HGs would need to work their way through the dark to board up a house while under the threat of a slasher villain trying to get them. It was so intense that one HG decided to tap out and not finish due to anxiety. Should be an interesting one to watch!
    So we’ve got our Final Five HGs with Alyssa, Brittany, Monte, Taylor, and Turner. One of these HGs will soon be $750K richer in just two weeks from tonight. Yes, the Big Brother 24 season finale is going to be on a Sunday night which is nice because they won’t have to share the night with Survivor and that gives us more time to what’s sometimes a rushed event.

Local authorities ruled the death accidental, and over the next few months, Larry collected approximately $4.88 million in life insurance.

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

Li proposes to Gabi. Gabi doesn’t know what to say which Li worries is not a good sign and unlike her. Gabi calls it unexpected since they haven’t even been dating that long and questions where this is coming from. Li thinks back to talking to Dr. Rolf about solidifying his love for Gabi so that she’ll want nothing to do with Stefan. Li tells Gabi that he loves her and he was afraid if he waited any longer to make her his wife, he’d miss his chance and that would be unbearable because he wants to spend the rest of his life with her and hopes that she feels the same.

In the living room of the DiMera Mansion, Tony complains to Anna about Gabi being in control of DiMera and now his own family turning against each other. Anna laughs it off as nothing new. Tony doesn’t understand why Johnny is so protective of Ava. Anna thinks it’s obvious that Johnny has a crush on Ava.

Johnny assures EJ that Ava can handle the memorial and that she’s a lot stronger than he gives her credit for. EJ asks if he’s sure about that since Ava seemed pretty shaken up when she thought she saw Jake the other day. Johnny argues that Ava realizes that was her imagination now. EJ asks what if this pushes her over the edge and makes her start seeing dead people again.

Ava enters the DiMera Crypt and sees Stefan inside, but believes that he is Jake. Ava asks if it really is him and questions how this is possible since he’s dead. Stefan responds not anymore.

Johnny argues that EJ would like for Ava to have some sort of breakdown, so he could make a play for her shares. EJ admits the idea has crossed his mind. EJ suggests the memorial isn’t such a good idea if he’s so concerned about Ava’s state of mind. Johnny tells EJ that Ava is fine with it and that nobody is forcing him to go as he just thought he’d want to pay respects to his brother. EJ remarks that he hardly knew Jake. Johnny argues that he’s still family and that meant something to Stefano. Johnny thought it meant something to EJ too but guesses he was wrong. Johnny then walks away.

Ava tells herself that this isn’t real and isn’t happening as it’s just like the time before when he came to the house. Stefan notes her looking pale and suggests she sit down. Ava continues telling herself this is in her head. Stefan isn’t sure what’s going on. Ava says she’s going crazy and repeats that this isn’t real and he’s not Jake as she runs out of the Crypt. Stefan wonders who the hell is Jake.

Brady answers the door of Chloe’s hotel room to see Kristen. Kristen is surprised to see Brady, who asks if she was expecting someone else. Kristen walks in and searches through the room, asking where the hell is he. Chloe questions who exactly she is looking for. Brady asks Kristen who else she thought was there. Kristen thinks back to ordering Stefan to get to Chloe’s room at the Salem Inn. Kristen then claims that she thought an intern that Chloe has been flirting with would be there. Kristen claims that she thought Chloe was cheating on Brady and that she would catch them getting it on. Kristen admits she was clearly mistaken so she’s going to get going. Chloe stops her and argues that they know damn well she didn’t come because she thought she was cheating on Brady. Chloe then asks Kristen what she is hiding.

Stefan sits in the Crypt and looks up at the plaques on the wall. Stefan sees Jake’s and wonders if it’s a coincidence that they have the same birthday. Stefan asks if Jake is maybe his twin brother and if that’s who this woman thinks he is.

Tony and Anna talk about how EJ will go ballistic if Johnny and Ava get involved. Tony worries that things are bad enough between EJ and Johnny. Anna argues that EJ needs to get over himself and stop trying to control everyone around him. Anna adds that if Johnny is interested in Ava, good for him. Johnny then walks in and asks if he heard his name. Anna greets him and says she was just saying how sweet it was of him to put this memorial together and adds that Ava must be very appreciative. Johnny hopes it brings Ava some peace. Ava then rushes in from outside, saying she saw him in the Crypt. Anna asks who she saw. Ava says never mind, but Tony guesses that she saw Jake. Ava then confirms that she saw him again.

Li asks Gabi what she’s thinking. Gabi tells Li that she’s sorry but she needs a moment to process everything. Li tells her to take her time. Li says he thought about proposing in a more romantic setting but he figured this is where they first connected, so it was appropriate in a way. Li asks if she’s still processing. Gabi didn’t even know he was thinking about marriage. Li admits he’s thought about it for awhile now as ever since he met her, he’s been captivated by her beauty, intelligence, strength, and determination. Li calls the last few months the happiest he’s ever been, so he doesn’t want that to end, but he’s beginning to feel he may have jumped the gun. Gabi then tells him he did not necessarily.

Ava explains that she wanted a moment alone before the memorial, so she went down to the Crypt and “Jake” was standing there right next to his plaque. Tony asks if she talked to him. Ava confirms they said a few words but she freaked out and came in. Ava knows it’s impossible but insists it seemed real. Ava asks if Johnny thinks she’s crazy. Johnny says he doesn’t and offers to go to the Crypt with her to get to the bottom of this. Ava thanks him and they exit.

Kristen claims she’s not hiding anything. Kristen expresses her regret on accusing Chloe of being a cheating whore. Brady tells Kristen to get out. Kristen agrees to let them get back to whatever they were doing and tells Brady that she will see him tomorrow in court. Kristen exits and Brady wonders what the hell that was about.

Tony tells Anna that EJ must be right that Ava is having a nervous breakdown. Anna argues that the Crypt is incredibly dark and creepy, so she can’t be blamed for thinking she saw a ghost down there. EJ walks in and asks if they are ready to go pay respects to his brother. Tony thought EJ wasn’t attending. EJ admits that Johnny shamed him in to it. Anna suggests they wait here a bit which EJ questions. Anna explains that Ava and Johnny are at the Crypt so she thinks it’s best that they don’t interrupt them. EJ questions what is going on. Tony then reveals that Ava thinks she saw Jake again which makes EJ smile.

Johnny and Ava go to the Crypt. Ava stops outside and says she needs a minute. Ava admits on one hand she’s afraid that Jake won’t be in there but on the other hand, she’s terrified that he will be and she’ll be the only one who can see him which would confirm she’s lost her mind. Johnny tells Ava that whatever happens, he will help her through it as they will figure it out together and he’s here for her. Ava then agrees to go in.

Gabi tells Li that when they first got together, she thought it would just be a fun little fling and that’s what she wanted, so she assumed he was fine with that but as time went by, she started to realize it wasn’t just a fun little fling and has grown in to something deeper. Gabi mentions having a conversation with Rafe about a month ago when she told him that she was done with love and that no one could take Stefan’s place in her heart. Gabi notes that it’s still true to an extent but Rafe also told her not to give up on love. Gabi is starting to realize that there is room for someone else in her heart, for Li. Gabi tells Li that if the offer still stands, she would be honored to be his wife as they kiss.

Johnny and Ava enter the Crypt and see no one is there. Ava talks about seeing “Jake” next to his plaque and he was wearing his favorite suit but decides it couldn’t have been real. Johnny brings up that his family does have a history of cheating death with Stefano, EJ, Tony, and Kristen all coming back from the dead, so maybe Jake did the same thing.

Li and Gabi say “I love you” to each other as Li then puts the ring on Gabi’s finger which she calls stunning. Gabi worries that it’s too extravagant but Li wants to give her the world. Li suggests they go celebrate and says he’ll book the DiMera Jet. Gabi reminds him that they’ll have to go after Jake’s memorial. Li admits he’s excited to see how EJ and the rest of the DiMeras will react to their engagement, guessing they won’t be too pleased that they have consolidated their power. Li hoped that wasn’t the only reason she accepted his proposal as they kiss again.

Kristen returns to Dr. Rolf’s lab asking if Stefan is there. Dr. Rolf thought he went to see Chloe but Kristen reveals that she just saw Chloe and Stefan clearly had not paid her a visit, so she questions where the hell he went.

Johnny tells Ava that they should go outside because Jake could have wandered off but Ava says no. Ava wants to believe Johnny is right and that Jake is alive but it doesn’t make any sense. Ava says if Jake was back and came back for her, he wouldn’t have let her walk out the door since they were in love. Johnny can’t explain it but says if they find him, they can ask him. Johnny doesn’t see any harm in trying but Ava worries about EJ trying to use it against her again. Ava states that if EJ finds out that they are out chasing ghosts, he will have her locked up. Ava cries that maybe Bayview is where she belongs because she’s obviously lost her mind. Johnny disagrees and assures there is a logical explanation. Johnny suggests going to get her checked out by a doctor but Ava says it doesn’t feel like hallucinations. Johnny says they can’t just assume she’s insane. Johnny wants to think about what could be going on here. Ava complains that she can’t tell the difference between what’s real and what’s not and she can’t take it anymore. Ava declares that it’s too much and runs out of the Crypt. EJ then arrives and asks Johnny if Ava is alright.

Kristen doesn’t understand since she told Stefan to go to the Salem Inn and gave him Chloe’s room number so she questions how he could go and screw things up. Dr. Rolf reminds her that he warned her it was too soon to release Stefan out in to the world as he would have preferred another round of conditioning. Kristen questions if his brainwashing didn’t take. Dr. Rolf says he can’t say for sure and it worries him that he didn’t go straight for Chloe. Kristen complains that it’s ruining her day and possibly her entire future. Kristen declares that if Stefan wasn’t compelled to go straight to Chloe and if he’s still in love with Gabi, then this is on Dr. Rolf and he knows what that means.

Anna tells Tony that they better get down to the Crypt since EJ took off when they told him that Ava thought she saw Jake again. Tony hopes EJ won’t be too unkind to Ava. Li and Gabi then arrive. Gabi apologizes for being late. Tony asks if it was a busy day at the office. Gabi says you could say that as she announces she and Li are engaged. Anna hugs Gabi and congratulates them. Tony congratulates them, calling it a strategic merger on their parts. Li assures it has nothing to do with business as they are very much in love. Gabi asks if Johnny and Ava are at the Crypt already. Tony says they are and hopes Ava will be well enough to attend the memorial because she thinks she saw Jake again. Li is shocked and asks where. Tony explains that Ava says she saw him in the Crypt so Johnny went with her to take a look around. Gabi feels bad about Ava having hallucinations. Li suggests they go down there and make sure everything is okay.

Johnny assures EJ that Ava is fine and just feeling emotional about the memorial. EJ questions why since Tony and Anna just told him that Ava still thinks Jake’s alive. Johnny realizes EJ knows then. EJ says he’s been trying to tell Johnny that Ava is mentally unstable and asks if he believes him now. Johnny complains that it’s all going exactly how EJ planned it. EJ asks what the hell he’s talking about. Johnny accuses EJ of gaslighting Ava and trying to convince her that she’s insane so he can get his hands on her shares. EJ argues that Ava is making herself insane and doesn’t need any help from him. Johnny brings up that EJ told Ava it wouldn’t be long before she had another vision of Jake and then it happens, giving him the evidence he needs to take her shares. EJ questions how he would arrange that. Johnny suggests EJ put on a Jake mask. EJ responds that he must be confusing him with Kristen because he doesn’t do masks. Johnny suggests he could’ve hired a lookalike. EJ says Johnny is just being crazy. Johnny states that Jake has somehow turned up twice and he thinks EJ is behind it and trying to scare Ava. EJ argues that he’s not responsible for Ava’s hallucinations and complains that he’s sick and tired of him taking Ava’s side over his. Johnny argues that Ava is EJ’s sister in law. EJ remarks that you’d have to be an idiot to believe that Ava and Jake were actually married. EJ calls it more of Ava’s sinister lies as she’s an amoral woman with no conscience and that’s still the case no matter what she says to him. Johnny asks if that’s what EJ tells himself to justify his campaign against her. EJ argues that there is no campaign. EJ complains that Johnny defending this deranged woman is not only infuriating but downright sad. EJ calls Johnny gullible and naïve. Johnny responds that he’d rather be that than cold and cynical like EJ. Johnny declares that Ava is vulnerable and he will not let EJ push her over the edge. EJ says he’s not trying to. Johnny yells at EJ to stay away from Ava and leave her the hell alone. Johnny then storms out of the crypt.

Johnny goes to Ava’s room and finds her packing her bags. Johnny questions what she’s doing. Ava responds that she can’t stay here because the house is driving her insane. Johnny asks where she would go. Ava guesses she’ll go back to the garage. Johnny tells her not to do that because she shouldn’t be alone right now. Ava points out that she won’t be because Kristen is still staying there. Johnny argues that’s even worse because Kristen’s favorite game is getting people to question their sanity. Ava argues that she never belonged here and maybe that’s why she’s being punished. Johnny says she didn’t do anything. Ava says she’s done plenty of terrible things in her life so maybe it’s all coming back to haunt her literally. Johnny brings up what Stefano has done and he still has his portrait on the wall. Johnny says that Ava fought to overcome her past so she should be proud of all she has accomplished. Ava calls him sweet but says he’s giving her too much credit. Ava says she’s not the lovely person that he thinks she is and she’s losing her mind, so he shouldn’t have to deal with that. Johnny disagrees. Ava asks how else to explain what she thought she saw. Johnny admits he can’t but if she just stays, they can figure it out together. Johnny asks Ava not to go.

Dr. Rolf gets a text from Li that Ava thinks she saw Jake on the DiMera property again. Kristen guesses that means she saw Stefan again. Dr. Rolf says that would mean Stefan went back home instead of seeking out Chloe. Kristen argues that means he went to track down his wife. Kristen blames Dr. Rolf for not wiping out his love for Gabi after all.

EJ speaks to Gabi, Li, Tony, and Anna in the Crypt about how Johnny accused him of gaslighting Ava and complains that all Johnny does is assault him and doesn’t feel loyal to him. Gabi feels Johnny has reasons to be suspicious since EJ would do anything to get his hands on Ava’s shares. EJ insists he is in no way responsible for Ava’s decline and warns that he’s going to let Mr. Shin know about this latest incident in case they try to cover up for Ava again. Gabi calls EJ a creep. Anna reminds them that they are supposed to be here to pay their respects to Jake. Tony agrees and asks if they should begin the memorial. Anna says the less time spent in the Crypt, the better. Tony then begins the memorial, commenting that Jake has joined his twin Stefan in the great beyond…

Stefan enters the DiMera Mansion and asks if anyone is there. He looks around the living room and guesses not. Stefan then pours himself a drink and looks back at the portrait of Stefano, saying it’s good to see him again.

Kristen argues that Stefan was supposed to fall in love with Chloe and drive a wedge between her and Brady. Kristen shouts that her whole plan is going up in smoke because of Dr. Rolf. Rolf questions how it’s his fault when he told her that Stefan wasn’t ready. Kristen says he should’ve been more forceful with his concerns because now he’s ruined everything, her plans and Li’s as well. Kristen warns Dr. Rolf that if Stefan shows up to reclaim Gabi, Li Shin will make him pay with his life.

Anna compliments Tony on a lovely tribute to Jake. Jake thanks her but admits he found it hard to come up with cherished memories of a brother he hardly knew, but he did his best. Tony stops to ask if anyone invited Kristen. Anna says she didn’t. EJ says he didn’t as this whole thing was Johnny and then Johnny and Ava didn’t even have the courtesy to attend. Anna is sure Ava is grieving in her own way. Tony asks if they should get back to the house for cocktails. Li looks at Gabi, noticing that she is looking at Stefan’s plaque on the wall. EJ says not to let them keep them if there’s some place else they’d rather be. EJ exits. Li thanks Tony as drinks and food sounds lovely. Anna and Tony then exit the Crypt. Li asks if Gabi is alright. Gabi asks for a moment alone with Stefan as she would like to share their news with him and sort of ask for his blessing. Li says of course. Gabi says she won’t be long. Li kisses her and then exits.

Johnny pleads with Ava not to go. Ava says she has to because nobody wants her here. Johnny takes her hand and says he does. Johnny states that the house is a lot more bearable with her in it. Ava questions why he’s being so nice to her. Johnny responds that he likes having her around and he cares about her a lot. Johnny and Ava then start kissing.

EJ, Anna, and Tony return to the living room. EJ decides he’s going to look for Johnny. Anna suggests he wait a minute and give him more time, adding that he won’t want to miss the champagne toast as she reveals Gabi and Li are engaged which shocks EJ. EJ questions why the hell he would toast to that when they are just trying to consolidate their power at the family company. Tony admits he had the same thought. Anna asks Tony to help her pick out a bottle of champagne. Anna notices an empty glass there but Tony tells her not to worry as Harold will take care of it. Tony and Anna then exit together.

Gabi removes her old wedding ring and places it at Stefan’s plaque in the Crypt. Gabi says she never imagined she’d be telling Stefan about her feelings for another man and she hopes he understands that as wonderful as what they had was, she needed to make a new life for herself. Gabi adds that even though she and Li are engaged, Stefan is the love of her life and always will be, but she has to let him go. Gabi says goodbye to Stefan. Gabi then gets up to leave right as Stefan returns to the Crypt.

Recap written by Michele and Cheryl

Gabi was on the phone with Will when EJ barged in the room. He let her know that she made a mistake. He was convinced that Ava was her ticket out of the CEO position. He told her that hiring a crazy person wasn’t going to work. He didn’t think the marriage was real. He knew that Gabi didn’t think it was either. She told him that she didn’t lose her job, but he lost his son. He told her that she wouldn’t be a DiMera and wanted her to stay out of family business. EJ walked out just as Li showed up. He lied about where he was. He wasn’t happy that Ava was hired at the company. Ava was at DiMera Enterprises when Johnny showed up to check on her. She said EJ’s betrayal of his son was worse than what he did to her. She didn’t want to make their relationship worse. He told her that it was his father’s fault. He wouldn’t let his father treat her like that again. She was willing to move out so they could work things out. He offered to have a service for Jake at the family crypt. She thanked him for the gesture when EJ showed up. He yelled at Johnny before saying he was there to talk to Ava. Ava sent Johnny out of the room. EJ wanted to talk to her mental state and how she’s using his son. She said he was nice to her and that’s it. He brought up her hallucinations and he said he would prove she was unstable. He warned her that she was going to Bayview if she says she saw Jake again.
