[ Door latching ]

Thomas: Hey, did you, huh, see brooke? What did she say?

Ridge: No.

Thomas: No, you didn’t see her? Or she didn’t admit to calling C.P.S.?

Ridge: She didn’t admit to anything. She lied to me again.

Brooke: Thank you for pushing the reservation back, bernard. Yes, private cabana overlooking the ocean would be perfect. Okay, nine o’clock. See you then.

Liam: That’s your dinner reservation with ridge?

Brooke: Oh, yeah. I think ridge and I need a night alone together, just to hear the waves lapping on the rocks and see the stars in the sky.

Liam: Yeah, that sounds nice. Hope and I could probably use one of those too, actually. Speaking of– hey, do you know where she is?

Brooke: Well, she left a little while ago, and she did say that she was going to the office.

Liam: Well, unfortunately, hope being at the office means hope being with thomas

Steffy: Bill, letting us use his house in aspen is one thing, but letting our family have first dibs at buying it, that’s another. I mean, he must be mellowing out.

Taylor: Huh?

Steffy: Mom, are you all right? Please just talk to me.

Taylor: Oh, honey, just um… just overthinking about overthinking, you know? You have been a huge help.

Steffy: If that were true, dad would be right here beside you, jetting off to aspen on a romantic getaway. Who knows, you could be getting married?

Taylor: Steffy, please. Please, you’re killing me. I– I don’t want this. Ridge, ridge is married, okay? I don’t want this back and forth anymore. It’s so painful. I just want to move on with my life, I want more for myself. And your father would be the first one to tell you that.

Liam: It’s so tempting, I just wanna drive right over to forrester and see for myself. It’s fine, I’m sure it’s fine, I’m sure hope just– she’s it works, she– she gets distracted. It’s– it’s not a big deal.

Brooke: Or maybe thomas is doing all he can to keep her there so he can spend even more time with her.

Liam: Well, I wanna believe that if that’s true, hope would realize it, you know. But… but it is hope. We both know your daughter. She wants so badly to believe that thomas is different now and that it’s his love for douglas that caused the change in him, you know, she just wants everything to work out.

Brooke: Yeah, I mean, we all do. Especially for douglas’ sake. But ridge, and taylor, steffy, and that whole family, they think that thomas is harmless. But I don’t know, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to trust thomas.

Steffy: Mom, you love dad, and he loves you. Just wish there was a way you guys could figure it out.

Taylor: What are we supposed to do, you know? Pretend ridge isn’t married or that brooke doesn’t exist?

Steffy: Yeah, he’s married to this woman who can’t keep her eyes and lips off of every other guy, who also claims that dad is her destiny. I’m just so sick and tired of hearing the word “destiny.” The only thing that relationship is destined for is heartbreak. Dad’s seeing it. Soon, he’s gonna have enough of her drama. Dad is gonna see who brooke logan really is.

Thomas: Brooke lied? To your face? I’m sorry, dad. I know what this must be doing to you. I haven’t had the warmest or fuzziest feelings about brooke, you know that. Uh, but, she is your wife. But still though, I mean, for her not to confess? We literally heard her voice, she said her name–

Ridge: I know! I know.

Thomas: So, what did she say? Did you call her out on it? Why do dermatologists worldwide recommend

Thomas: She had a perfect chance to come clean?

Ridge: Yeah.

Thomas: What’d she say?

Ridge: She said she didn’t know who could have done that.

Thomas: She actually said that with a straight face? That’s a new low, even for brooke. What’d you say?

Ridge: I didn’t say anything, what’s the point? She lied on the phone. She lied to my face.

Thomas: I’m sorry.

Ridge: I got to go think.

Brooke: I think what we need to do is to stop thomas from taking this any further.

Liam: Yeah, but how do we do that? Thomas has all the leverage right now because he knows hope does not want this escalating into a court battle.

Brooke: Well, I don’t think thomas wants that either. But now he’s got douglas living with him and douglas saying he wants to spend more time with his dad.

Liam: Which puts thomas squarely in the driver’s seat.

Brooke: You and I both tried talking to him, and we got nowhere. So, it seemed at the time. But there are things that thomas has no control over.

Liam: There are? Like what?

Brooke: Well, it just seems like things have gone his way lately. Like, he’s got douglas living with him, and he has no intention of returning him to hope any time soon. And now, he’s got this little family, him and douglas, and hope. And now, beth is going over there to visit.

Liam: Yeah, yeah, I mean despite all my nagging, it really does feel like hope is becoming vulnerable to thomas again, even though she’s telling me that’s not what’s happening.

Brooke: It’s time, liam. Now, we just have to push back. Thomas needs to realize that he can’t just have whatever he wants.

Thomas: Oh, god. Of course, of course.

[ Thomas sighs loudly ] Spilling coffee, on a white shirt, had to be white, tsk.

Hope: Can’t catch a break, huh?

[ Thomas chuckles ]

Hope: I actually, I came by to talk to you, I… heard about C.P.S. Coming to the house.

[ Thomas sighs ]

Steffy: I can see the mountains, we’re almost in aspen. Believe in dad, okay? Your love for each other.

[ Ridge sighs ]

[ Ridge sighs ]

Ridge: Why would you do this, brooke? Why? We’ve forgiven each other for so many things. Here we are again. What am I doing with my life? I’m amber, I’ve lost 128 pounds with golo,

Brooke: Thomas has gotten away with a lot in the past, and I don’t want that to be true this time.

Liam: I mean, neither do I. But the guy’s got the entire forrester family in his corner, and now he’s got hope cutting him way more slack than she ought to be. So…

Brooke: We have to just keep warning her about thomas. We can’t let him get to hope more than he already has, especially for douglas’ sake.

Thomas: I’m gonna grab a shirt, just one second. In case I spill coffee again.

[ Thomas chuckles ] Huh, look, I know why you’re here, or at least I think I do. So, maybe I should tell you my side of things. Um… basically what happened is, I was cutting up an apple with my pocket knife, which you’ve seen before, on a cutting board. But brooke walked in and freaked out and thought, I don’t know, I don’t know what she thought. Maybe that I was too close to douglas or something. But I want you to know, like, there’s never a point in time where douglas’ safety isn’t, like, my first priority. I would never let him hold the knife, or play around with it, or anything like that. And then C.P.S. Shows up and… look, I– I didn’t want douglas to be put in that situation, but there’s nothing else I could have done. You know, these strangers coming into the house talking to him, but honestly, he was fine, he took it in stride. It was pretty amazing to see. Anyway, if you’re gonna just get upset with me, then–

Hope: No, I’m– I’m not.

Thomas: You’re not.

Hope: Thomas, I know douglas loves you, and I know you love your son, and you would never put him in harm’s way. I don’t believe you would do something like that.

Thomas: That’s incredible to hear. I’ve done some, um… some pretty awful things, and breached your trust, and hurt you and… I mean, it’s kind of amazing that we’ve gotten to this point now, I guess.

[ Hope laughs ]

Thomas: Um, anyway, god, just, thank you, hope. Thank you so much.

Steffy: Just spoke to the pilot. We’re landing very soon.

Taylor: Mm.

Steffy: You okay?

Taylor: Nope. You don’t need to keep asking.

Steffy: Well, you’re my mom. I just wanna see you happy.

Taylor: Honey, you– you make me happy. And thomas, and douglas, and kelly, and hayes, and finn make me happy.

Steffy: And dad.

Taylor: Do I love your dad? Yes, a part of me always will. But… the life that I’ve been wanting with him isn’t possible. Not like this.

Ridge: What am I doing? My true love. My destiny. What is that? What is my destiny?

With less

moderate-to-severe eczema,

Liam: It’s just what we thought. Hope is still with forrester, with thomas.

Brooke: So, donna confirmed it.

Liam: Yeah, they’re in the ceo office. She thinks they’re probably talking about “hope for the future,” but I can’t imagine hope not bringing up this C.P.S. Thing with him, too.

Brooke: Well, I’m sure he’ll just say that it was nothing. He’ll tell hope and the rest of the family, they have nothing to worry about in regards to douglas.

Liam: Yeah, no, of course he’s gonna say that. But if– even if it turned out to be nothing, the fact that somebody felt they had to call legitimizes our concerns about him.

Brooke: Mm-hmm, and you and I don’t want hope to spend more time with him because we know how manipulative he can be.

Liam: I know that your feelings about thomas have created some tension between you and ridge.

Brooke: I love ridge, and he loves me but he also loves his son. So, I have to be very careful on what I say, because I don’t want it to blow up in my face, and ruin things for us.

Othello: All set.

Steffy: Thank you.

Othello: Steffy, aspen’s missed you.

Steffy: I’ve really missed aspen. I’m hoping to reconnect on this trip, in a lot of ways.

Othello: I was so surprised to hear that bill is selling this place. You know, being a realtor, your family should really snatch this place up.

Steffy: We’ll see, we’ll see.

Othello: All right, let me know if you need anything. Rezzies, vip.

Steffy: Yeah.

Othello: Bill told me to hook you up.

Steffy: I might take you up on it.

Othello: All right, sounds good.

Steffy: Good to see you.

Othello: Good to see you.

Steffy: Bye. Thanks again, othello.

[ Steffy sighs ]

Taylor: Mm, you know, coming here was a really good idea. Maybe I can even get a fresh new perspective.

Steffy: I don’t think you need a fresh perspective, mom. You love dad. And you want to be with him, right?

Taylor: We both know the answer to that. I mean, he is the great love of my life.

Steffy: Mom, when dad’s marriage to brooke comes to an end, and I am certain it will, it’s not gonna be because of you. It’ll be brooke’s doing.

Ridge: My destiny… I don’t even know what the hell that means anymore.

Thomas: Steffy and I have

seen you go back and forth

between our mom and brooke

so many times,

it’s painful for us,

but it’s painful for her, too.

Steffy: Stop wasting

your time on brooke.

Have the life you deserve, dad.

Have it with mom.

You can find true happiness

with mom.

Go back to her.

Brooke: Oh, my god.

[ Brooke sobbing ]

Brooke: Child protective services doesn’t just show up at your doorstep for no reason.

Ridge: No, somebody call them, we’re trying to figure out who that was.

Brooke: I certainly don’t know who it was.

Update written by Joseph

At the Kiriakis Mansion, Nancy is on the phone with Chloe. Nancy assures that she’s fine and that a good night’s sleep helped her realize how lucky she is to be done with Clyde. Nancy says she loves her and hangs up. Nancy then looks in the mirror and complains that she looks ridiculous but is surprised when she turns around to see Craig arrive with flowers.

Doug and Julie visit Laura Horton’s grave. Julie leaves flowers and says they miss her so much. Julie thanks Doug for suggesting they stop by. Julie says the Horton family has had so much loss in such a short time. Julie supposes there is comfort in knowing that Clyde will rot in prison for what he did to Abigail but guesses she will have to wait on Gwen for what she did to Laura.

Jennifer goes to visit Gwen at the hospital. Gwen asks what brings her by and if she came to finish her off. Gwen has flashbacks to the accident and remarks that Jennifer looks like a deer in headlights. Gwen asks if that’s how she looked just before Jennifer pressed the gas pedal. Gwen informs Jennifer that she remembers it was her that ran her down and left her for dead.

Jack questions where Leo gets his information from. Leo informs him that Gwen told him that it was Jennifer. Jack notes that Gwen said she didn’t see the driver but Leo reveals that he just came from her hospital room and her memory came rushing back to her. Leo adds that it wasn’t hard to make Gwen realize that Jennifer did this on purpose. Leo declares that Jennifer needs to make restitution and that will come in the form of a check from Jack if he wants to make this all go away.

Gwen tells Jennifer to stay away from her. Jennifer says she didn’t come to hurt her, but to tell her how very sorry she is for what she did to her.

Chad helps Stephanie work outside of Julie’s Place. Stephanie acknowledges that Chad really made the press release better and says she really appreciates him as she’s been so worried about Kayla that she’s finding it hard to concentrate. Stephanie worries that if she doesn’t get a handle on all this work then she’s going to start losing clients. Paulina then appears and announces that the first one is going to be her. Chad stands and offers his seat. Paulina asks if Stephanie owns a calendar and complains that the election is a month away while her polling numbers are going down. Stephanie apologizes and tries to explain. Paulina just wants to do how she’s doing what it takes to get her behind the Governor’s desk.

Nancy tells Craig that Bonnie is helping her put highlights in her hair. Nancy questions him bringing her flowers and asks what he’s even doing here. Craig responds that he wanted to see how she is.

Gwen asks if Jennifer’s having second thoughts about trying to kill her. Jennifer swears that it wasn’t deliberate and didn’t see her until it was too late. Gwen argues that she knew she hit her and she left. Jennifer wishes she could tell her why she left but she can’t. Jennifer explains that she didn’t remember until an hour ago and as soon as she remembered, she knew she had to see her. Gwen questions Jennifer having no memory of hitting someone with her car. Jennifer confirms that she doesn’t because when she hit her, she wasn’t in her right mind as she was high.

Jack questions if Gwen is on board with Leo’s blackmail scheme. Leo calls it a settlement. Jack points out that he didn’t answer if Gwen authorized him acting on her behalf. Leo says they had begun talking about the possibility until they were interrupted by a nurse. Jack realizes Gwen doesn’t know he’s here. Leo admits that he took it upon himself to find a resolution for all parties involved. Jack finds it very hard to believe that Gwen would approve of this. Leo complains about what Jennifer did while Jack shouts that it was an accident.

Doug reminds Julie that Gwen told them that Laura’s death was an accident. Julie calls Gwen a liar. Julie brings up what Jennifer is going through and what a help Laura could have been to her. Doug states that Laura meant so much to everyone who loved her. Laura’s son, Mike Horton then surprises them and says truer words were never spoken. Julie is shocked to see Mike and excitedly hugs him.

Nancy asks how Craig even knew she was at the Kiriakis Mansion. Craig reveals that Bonnie called him and asked him to drop by and he’s relieved that she did. Craig explains that Bonnie thought she would need another friend to talk to. Craig asks if he is still her friend, but Nancy responds that she’s honestly not sure.

Paulina orders Stephanie to set up a press conference to make her national news by the end of the day. Chad interrupts and says Stephanie isn’t going to say anything, so he will, and that her mother is in the hospital so maybe Paulina could cut her a break. Paulina is surprised and says she’s sorry to hear that. Paulina complains that if Stephanie can’t do the job then she should be delegating the work to someone in her firm and she could have at least told her that she was dealing with a family emergency. Chad tries to explain but Paulina asks him to stay out of it. Stephanie tells Chad that it’s okay and tells Paulina that she’s right that she should’ve delegated and told her about her mom. Stephanie apologizes for dropping the ball and says she will start working on the press conference which Paulina notes is just what she wanted to hear. Paulina apologizes for laying in to her and says she’s truly sorry to hear her mother is in the hospital, so she will pray for her. Stephanie says she will call her later. Paulina suggests Stephanie delegate to her assistant but Stephanie clarifies that Chad is not her assistant and introduces him to her. Paulina then realizes who he is and apologizes as she sends her sympathy for what happened to Abigail which she calls a terrible tragedy.

Jack tells Leo that he and his wife buried their daughter a few weeks ago and are doing their best to take care of her two young children. Leo knows he’s been through a lot and that he’s worried about Gwen, so he would hate for him to lose his wife too which Jack questions. Leo points out that Jack called what Jennifer did an accident which confirms her liability, so Leo asks if Jennifer confessed. Jack responds that he was speaking hypothetically because if Jennifer did something like that, it would not be intentional. Leo says the point is that it happened and Jack knows about it. Jack questions what his part of the settlement is. Leo explains that Jack’s not the only one who has had a rough couple months as he got falsely accused of killing Abigail and had to hire a lawyer, who is now threatening to take him to court. Leo suggests they keep it easy and Jack can write a check for a million dollars but Jack says he can’t do that. Leo guesses he will have to alert the police and The Intruder about Jennifer’s accident then. Jack clarifies that he does not have a million dollars in his personal checking account, so he will have to go to the bank for that, and after the transfer is made, he’ll meet him somewhere. Leo decides he will wait right here to complete their transaction. Leo tells Jack that he’s doing the right thing for his wife and his family.

Julie calls Mike a sight for sore eyes. Doug says they have missed him so much. Mike knew he would see them later at the house but he wanted to come pay his respects to Laura and Abigail. Julie asks if Jennifer knows he’s here or if it’s a surprise. Mike reveals it’s no surprise and that he’s here because Jennifer needs him and asked for his help.

Gwen realizes Jennifer got high on those pills that she caught her with and questions why she decided to drive. Jennifer doesn’t know and says she was hallucinating seeing Abigail in the car. Jennifer swears it was an accident and she’s so sorry. Gwen argues that she didn’t come to apologize but to save her ass. Gwen complains that Jennifer knows she sped up and hit her but it didn’t matter. Jennifer claims she didn’t know she hit the gas pedal and thought she hit the brake. Gwen brings up their last conversation before the accident where Jennifer told her that she would be very sorry if she told Jack about her pills and that sounded like a threat to her. Jennifer points out that when she hit her, she didn’t know that Gwen had told Jack. Jennifer says she’s now glad that she told Jack because she needs help and is going to get it. Gwen talks about hearing all the same things from her mother growing up. Gwen says she’s learned that addicts are very cunning and they lie. Jennifer agrees and admits she’s said those same things to people she loves, so there’s no reason that Gwen should believe a word she says. Jennifer repeats that Gwen did the right thing by telling Jack about her, so she’s going to do the right thing too. Jennifer declares that she has just decided to go to the police station to turn herself in.

Mike explains that Jennifer called him and told him that she started abusing painkillers again. Doug mentions that they didn’t know for quite awhile. Mike decided a phone call wasn’t enough so here he is. Mike adds that Jennifer asked him to arrange getting her in to rehab. Julie is relieved that Jennifer will be getting help. Mike notes that Jennifer also told him how much their love and support meant to her. Doug assures they’d do anything for Mike and Jennifer, Laura’s two wonderful kids. Julie talks about how proud Laura was of them and how they are too. Julie suggests they go home for lunch. Mike decides he will meet them there since it’s been awhile so he needs to spend some time at his mom’s grave.

Jennifer tells Gwen that she has to go to the police now or she might lose her nerve. Jennifer repeats that she’s so sorry for everything. Gwen asks what about her addicition and if she wants to get clean. Jennifer is sure they have programs in prison. Gwen remarks that Jennifer wouldn’t last a week in prison. Jennifer responds that she’s stronger than she thinks. Gwen then stops her and tells her not to turn herself in. Jennifer questions that not being what she wants. Gwen thought it was, but she looks at her now and can see how much she’s suffered. Gwen talks about Jennifer’s mother dying suddenly and her daughter being brutally murdered, so it’s no wonder she turned to something to stop the pain. Jennifer points out that because of that, she almost killed Gwen. Gwen notes that she didn’t and she’s still here. Jennifer questions what she’s saying. Gwen responds that she cares about her and admits that’s a surprise to her as well. Gwen wishes someone told her mom that she cared about her. Gwen says it was just them growing up and she wasn’t up for it but she is now. Gwen tells Jennifer not to turn herself in and that she will go to the police and say she has no idea who hit her which shocks Jennifer.

Paulina talks about Jack and Jennifer being old friends of Abe and how she could see how much they were suffering. Paulina is thankful they finally caught the bastard who killed Abigail, which Chad calls a relief. Paulina couldn’t believe their governor turned that gang of violent criminals loose. Paulina gives her word that it won’t happen on her watch. Paulina then gets an idea and suggests Stephanie convince Chad join her campaign party since he has experience running a major corporation and could be a big help. Stephanie assures that if they need more help, she will hire enough staff to get the job done. Paulina says it’s her call and decides to leave them to their business. Paulina then exits. Stephanie jokingly tells Chad welcome to her world.

Jennifer questions why Gwen would cover for her. Gwen responds that she has two reasons, first is that she wants to see Jennifer do what her mother never managed to do and the other reason is because after everything she’s done to her family, she still allowed her to be part of Jack’s life. Gwen loves Jack and wants him to be happy and she can see his heart is completely broken from losing Abigail, so she can’t take Jennifer away from him too as that would absolutely destroy him and she won’t let that happen. Jack then walks in and questions what Gwen won’t let happen.

Doug and Julie go home. Doug heads upstairs while Julie goes in to the living room where she is shocked to find Leo eating donuts and watching cartoons.

Craig tells Nancy that he is sorry that she doesn’t think they can still be friends. Craig goes to leave but Nancy stops him and apologizes, saying she meant that she doesn’t think she was a friend to him since she paraded her engagement in front of him after he just had his heart broken. Craig responds that he knows Nancy did that because he hurt her, lied to her, and cheated on her with Leo which made her feel like nobody wanted her and she wanted him to know that somebody did. Nancy brings up that Clyde said he did love her and that she was good for him, but she wasn’t good enough to stop him from doing the terrible things he did. Craig acknowledges that no amount of love can change a man’s nature. Nancy says she knows that now too. Nancy thanks Craig for coming to check on her and for the flowers. Craig brings up that she was one of the first to come by when Leo broke his heart, so he just wanted to return the favor. Nancy says she just had the craziest thought and asks what if they got back together. Nancy knows it wouldn’t be a romantic relationship but there’s more about being together than just sex. Craig admits they know each other better than anyone else. Nancy jokes that they have seen each other at their best and their worst. Craig acknowledges that they care for each other and know how to take care of each other. Nancy says it would be so much safer than being with somebody new. Craig agrees that they wouldn’t have to risk having their hearts broken again. Nancy says it just wouldn’t be the romantic ending they both dreamed about. Craig agrees but says it would be pretty damn nice.

Julie questions what Leo is doing in their house. Leo says he smelled donuts and couldn’t resist. Julie complains that she made those for Doug and points out that he still didn’t answer what he’s doing here. Leo responds that it’s cool because Jack knows he’s there. Julie complains that it’s not cool with her as she knows who he is. Leo says she probably saw him on the news and that he didn’t kill Abigail. Julie points out that Leo still broke in to her bedroom, stole her jewelry and left behind the knife that killed her. Leo declares that’s enough about him and suggests they talk about what Jennifer did.

Jack tells Gwen that Leo came to see him which surprises her as he didn’t tell her he was going to do that. Jack explains that Leo said Gwen remembered the accident and demanded a million dollars in exchange for Gwen’s silence which shocks them. Jennifer realizes Jack knows what she did then. Jack confirms that Leo made sure of that. Jennifer assures that she blacked out and wasn’t trying to keep it from him as she just remembered it this morning and came straight here. Gwen tells Jack that she believes Jennifer that it was an accident, so she’s going to tell the police that she doesn’t remember what happened to her. Jack points out that Leo will then go to the police and tell them his version. Gwen argues that Leo wasn’t there, so without her, he has nothing. Gwen instructs Jack not to give Leo a penny. Jack is surprisd and questions why she’s doing this. Jennifer responds that it’s because Gwen is his daughter and she loves him.

Stephanie finishes a work call and tells Chad that now she just has to set up a press conference to put Paulina on the map. Chad suggests Stephanie take a break and call the hospital to check on Kayla. Stephanie says she will do that, but she has to get Paulina calmed down first. Chad calls Paulina unbelievable. Stephanie calls her a force of nature but says she does like her. Chad apologizes for shooting his mouth off while she was there. Stephanie apologizes for Paulina thinking he was her assistant. Chad points out that he is unemployed, so she has a point. Stephanie notes that he’s not hurting for money. Chad responds that he’s not but he does need to keep busy and she needs to hire more people, so he asks why not hire him?

Nancy and Craig agree that as nice as it sounds, they don’t want to give up on romance as they both deserve a chance at real love again. Craig tells Nancy that she has always been his friend and he wants her to have her happily ever after. Nancy says she wants that for him too. Nancy decides they will say goodbye, see each other around, and hang out some time. Nancy kisses him on the cheek as Craig then exits.

Julie questions the meaning of Leo’s crack about Jennifer. Leo decides he can’t divulge that. Julie demands he tell her or else she will hit him with her rolling pin. Jack then comes home. Julie informs Jack that Leo said he got in to the house with his permission. Jack responds that he did, but he’ll be leaving soon. Julie tells Jack to deal with him then and storms out. Leo assumes Jack meant he will be leaving with a big fat check but Jack says no because he just came from Gwen’s hospital room. Leo questions him lying about going to the bank. Jack responds that there was no need as they managed to settle the whole matter without him. Leo questions what that means. Jack informs him that the only eye witness to the accident is Gwen and she is not going to say a word about what happened. Jack yells at Leo to get the hell out, so he exits.

Stephanie asks if Chad really wants to help her make Paulina the Governor. Chad responds that he needs to focus on something other than himself and he honestly believes Paulina is the right choice for Governor. Stephanie notes that it will be very hectic. Chad gives her his permission to fire him if he sucks, so Stephanie welcomes him to SJ PR and they shake hands.

Jennifer comes home and tells Jack that she was afraid Leo would still be there. Jack assures that he made short work of him, so now he’s free to focus on her. Jennifer tells Jack that it was incredibly gracious of Gwen to cover for her and let this go. Jennifer says she’s so sorry for lying to Jack about the pills and for getting behind the wheel while she was wasted. Jennifer acknowledges that Jack already lost one daughter and she could have killed his other one. Jennifer asks if Jack can ever forgive her. Jack tells her not to talk like that and brings up how many times she has forgiven him. Jack says he’s so sorry that she was suffering with all of this alone and he never saw it. Jennifer guesses it’s what they call hitting bottom. Jennifer asks what she does now. Jack declares that whatever it is, she won’t be doing it alone as he hugs her.

Leo walks past the Brady Pub while on the phone with Gwen, saying he’s sorry as he assumed she wanted him to make the most of this opportunity. Gwen tells him that he assumed wrong. Leo thought he was doing this for both of them. Gwen tells him that he knows how she feels about Jack and he was furious when he came in, so Leo could’ve scorched her relationship with Jack for good. Leo gets now that Jack is nobody’s sugar daddy. Leo complains about now having nobody to pay for his pesky legal bills as Craig then approaches.

Mike stands in the town square at the plaque of Tom and Alice. Mike mentions staying with Doug and Julie and says he’s looking forward to seeing the people he hasn’t seen in so long. Mike says he’ll be back and turns around where he runs in to Nancy.

Update written by Joseph

Will visits Sonny in his hospital room and informs him that he is getting out today or tomorrow which excites him. Will says now that Clyde is being transferred back to prison, they can finally put this whole nightmare behind them. Leo then arrives with a fruit basket.

Jennifer finishes a call at home about making travel arrangements as Chad arrives and says he couldn’t help but overhear, so he asks if she’s going somewhere. Jennifer reveals that she is going to rehab.

Gwen wakes up in her hospital bed as Sarah asks if she’s alright. Gwen tells her that she was having a nightmare about the accident. Sarah asks if she remembered something else, what kind of car it was, or the driver.

Leo asks if Will and Sonny are going to congratulate him on getting released from prison. They question what he’s doing here. Leo says that he came to say thanks and bring him a fruit basket. Leo declares that Sonny saved his life, so he’s eternally grateful.

Jack sits at the Brady Pub when Xander arrives and startles him. Xander says he looks like he could use some company. Jack responds that he’s just picking up takeout for Gwen. Xander asks how she’s doing. Jack says she’s still shaken up but is on the mend. Xander asks if the cops have any leads on the driver.

Gwen tells Sarah that she can see the car and the headlights. Gwen says there was a figure behind the wheel and she almost saw their face, but then she lost it. Sarah hopes it comes in to focus soon. Sarah is glad Gwen is awake. Gwen asks if she’s going to poke and prod her like every other doctor. Sarah says no but notes that Gwen is scheduled for more tests today. Gwen asks why Sarah is here then. Sarah thought it was time they talk about how Gwen tried to have her committed.

At the hospital, Stephanie is on the phone with Joey, assuring that Kayla is okay and promises to tell him if anything changes. Stephanie hangs up as Alex arrives and asks what she’s doing there and what’s wrong.

Sonny is not sure how to interpret Leo’s gratitude. Leo tells him to just accept it and let it lift his spirits. Leo explains that if Sonny hadn’t remembered smelling Clyde’s cologne, then he’d still be rotting in prison. Sonny tells him not to take it personally as he just wanted to see the right person punished. Leo says they are all on the same side now, so he hoped he could get his job back at Titan. Sonny asks if he’s joking. Leo points out that he did used to work there and claims not to remember accusing Sonny of sexual harassment. Sonny tells Leo that it’s not up to him because his brother Alex is in charge now. Leo complains that he should’ve known as he can’t count on anyone these days. Leo tells Sonny to take it easy and get well soon. Leo calls Sonny and Will an adorable couple as he exits the room.

Chad questions Jennifer going to rehab. Jennifer admits that she relapsed. Chad tells her that he’s so sorry. Jennifer explains that her brother Mike works with a facility in New York, so they are saving a room for her and she leaves later today. Chad brings up everything he’s put on her since Abigail died like asking her to watch the kids and worries that he leaned on her too much when he didn’t know that she needed help. Jennifer understands he couldn’t have known after losing his wife, so he was already suffering so much. Chad declares that at least they know who did it now. Jennifer says that means Abigail has justice and it will never be enough, but it’s something. Chad knows now that he needs to start moving on. Chad adds that it’s more about finding peace. Chad tells Jennifer that he saw Abigail and it made him realize that he needs to be strong for himself, the children, and Abigail.

Jack tells Xander that the police don’t seem to know who hit Gwen so far. Xander calls that odd since it happened right outside the police station. Jack says the cameras weren’t working that night and he heard they are having budget problems which Xander relates to. Xander worries that his luck is finally running out at the Salem Inn. Jack asks how he can help. Xander asks him to give him a job.

Sarah wants to talk to Gwen about the time that she broke out of prison to get back at her and Abigail by attacking Abigail while wearing the Sarah mask, so Abigail would suffer and Sarah would disappear from Salem. Gwen asks what she wants from her. Sarah wants to know if it was all just revenge. Sarah points out that Gwen was in prison so she couldn’t get Xander back which means all that mattered was ruining her life. Sarah questions what she ever did to Gwen. Gwen asks what she wants her to say. Gwen admits she did everything in her power to keep Xander away from her, but Sarah got everything she wanted in the end while she’s here alone, lucky to be alive. Gwen tells Sarah that all she can say is congratulations and that she is sorry. Sarah argues that Gwen is not sorry. Gwen repeats that she said she was. Sarah says she heard the words but only sees bitterness in her eyes. Gwen questions what more she wants from her since she won. Gwen assures Sarah that she will stay away from her and Xander until the end of time. Sarah warns that she damn well better. Sarah tells Gwen that a nurse will be by later to take her for tests as she then exits the room.

Stephanie tells Alex that she’s fine. Alex asks if she’s sure since she seems really upset. Stephanie insists that she’s fine. Alex apologizes for not following their rules and says she made it very clear when she turned down a simple lunch. Alex complains that they can’t talk personal, only business, and they are not friends, only colleagues, because she could never be friends with someone like him. Alex gives Stephanie the numbers for the quarterly returns and they aren’t great, so he tells her to spin that and walks away.

Will talks on the phone, asking why he can’t do the meeting remotely over Zoom. Will says to tell him what he needs to do and hangs up. Will informs Sonny that the star of his project won’t sign unless his dogs give him their stamp of approval which Sonny laughs at. Will says apparently to do that, he needs to be in the same room. Sonny tells Will that he should go. Will asks what he’s talking about as he doesn’t want to leave while Sonny, Kate, and Marlena are all in the hospital. Sonny assures that the doctors are doing a great job and they wouldn’t want him to put his life on hold. Sonny tells Will that he will be okay and that his project won’t write and direct itself. Will notes that he’s working on a couple of projects, so if he goes back, he might be gone for awhile. Will questions what that means for them if Sonny stays in Salem. Will then asks if they are going to be a long distance relationship.

Chad tells Jennifer that maybe he’s losing his mind, but it felt so real to him as he communicated with Abigail at the cemetery. Chad says he’s sorry if this is upsetting but Jennifer responds that she saw Abigail too. Jennifer thought maybe it was the pills but insists that she was in this room and then she came with her in the car when she went to the police station. Jennifer flashes back to driving to the police station while imagining Abigail.

Xander tells Jack that he actually came to the Brady Pub to beg them for a job but he’s much more suited to an executive position at the Spectator. Xander knows he doesn’t have experience with newspapers but he did once run Titan. Xander says if not an executive, maybe he could be an assistant editor or something. Xander asks what he says. Jack then reveals that he thinks Jennifer is the one who hit Gwen.

Leo visits Gwen in the hospital. Gwen is surprised that he’s out of jail. Leo says he came by to thank Sonny for his freedom and then he overheard nurses talking about what happened to Gwen. Leo asks if it’s true that someone ran Gwen down outside of the police station. Gwen confirms that’s exactly what happened, right after she came to see him. Leo asks if she’s okay. Gwen says she’s just bruised, traumatized, alone, and miserable but she will live. Leo encourages her and gives her a chocolate covered strawberry. Leo asks who the hell did this to her. Gwen says she doesn’t know as she was leaving the police station and next thing she knows, she’s staring down these headlights. Gwen then has another flashback and remembers that it was Jennifer driving the car.

Sonny tells Will that it’s not like he’s shipping off to war. Sonny says they will visit him in LA and he can come visit them here. Sonny notes that the whole reason he stayed in Salem was so he could follow his dreams of becoming CEO of Titan, so now Will has to follow his. Sonny points out that it won’t be forever. Sonny acknowledges that Will waited a long time for something like this, so he thinks he should make the most out of it. Sonny says when it’s all done, he and Arianna will be right here waiting for him. Will thanks him and says he loves him as they kiss. Will wishes Sonny was out of the hospital bed and back in their bed. Will encourages that he will be on his feet again soon. Sonny says then he can get his company back from his snake of a brother, Alex. Alex then enters the room and asks if somebody said his name.

Chad asks if Jennifer is alright. Jennifer says she’s fine and is just thinking about seeing Abigail in the car. Jennifer laments that she just made so many mistakes and can’t believe she allowed herself to get addicted again and lied to Jack. Jennifer feels she let down so many people that she loves. Chad encourages that’s not true and if anything they let her down. Chad knows he’s been struggling but feels he should’ve been there for her and he wasn’t, but he is now. Chad states that Jennifer is Abigail’s mother and always felt like a mother to him. Chad thinks Abigail would want them to be close. Jennifer confirms that she did and they are. Chad assures that won’t change while she’s away because they are family and he loves her, so he would do anything for her as they hug. Chad then exits as Jennifer holds back tears.

Xander questions Jack thinking Jennifer drove the car in to Gwen. Jack doesn’t know for sure but he thinks it’s possible. Xander asks why. Jack reveals that he just found out that Jennifer has been abusing drugs again. Jack says he’s been so overwhelmed with his own grief that he didn’t pick up on it. Jack questions not seeing it. Xander is sure she covered it well but Jack figured it out eventually. Jack explains that he didn’t as it was Gwen who told him since she caught Jennifer with the pills and told him. Xander says that doesn’t explain why Jack thinks Jennifer was driving the car. Jack tells him that Jennifer told him that she was high last night and that she drove to the police station which was exactly at the moment of the accident. Jack states that Gwen is the reason he knows anything was happening with Jennifer. Jack worries about Jennifer’s condition and that she wouldn’t even remember if she did it.

Gwen can’t believe that Jennifer was the one who did this to her. Gwen assures that she can see her face behind the wheel. Gwen asks Leo if he thinks Jennifer did this on purpose. Leo says of course she did because she’d have every reason to want to get back at her. Gwen asks why now. Leo reminds Gwen that Jennifer threatened her when she caught her with the pills and so she mowed her down before she could talk. Gwen questions if she would really do that. Leo says she’s a junkie, so of course she would. Leo doesn’t care that Jennifer is a Horton and that everyone worships her. Leo declares that he and Gwen are now going to expose Jennifer for the vehicular homicidal pill popper that she is.

Stephanietits outside of Julie’s Place while working on her tablet. Chad arrives and comments that it looks like she has a full day ahead of her and he can figure how that’s going. Stephanie mentions hearing that they found the person responsible for Abigail’s death and that it must be such a relief. Stephanie gets a call from Joey and tells him again that she will let him know if she hears anything so he doesn’t have to keep checking in. Stephanie says they’ll talk later and hangs up. Chad asks if everything is okay. Stephanie informs him that Kayla is in the hospital. Chad asks what happened. Stephanie says they don’t know as it’s a mysterious illness and that Marlena and Kate have it too. Chad can’t believe it as he didn’t know and asks if they are okay. Stephanie states that Kayla keeps saying there is nothing to worry about. Chad encourages her to go be with her. Stephanie says she was just there and Kayla is sleeping while Alex just gave her all this work for Titan and she’s completely behind on Paulina’s campaign, so she thought sitting out in the sun might make the work go by faster. Chad offers to help to make it go faster.

Sonny calls Alex a snake. Alex repeats that he didn’t steal his job. Sonny asks if he came back to make more excuses. Alex explains that Justin said he should try to settle things with him, which he was going to do until he walked in on him calling him names. Sonny asks what he expects and if he should just forget he tried to screw him over and move on. Alex responds that he didn’t do anything. Sonny complains that this is like when they were kids and Alex broke his toys. Sonny argues that Alex hasn’t changed. Alex asks Will to try to talk some sense in to Sonny. Will points out that one of them almost died and they are arguing about business. Will asks who cares since they are brothers and life is short. Will tells them to get over themselves and call a truce.

Gwen questions Leo saying they are going to expose Jennifer. Leo calls her his best friend and says he’s going to see to it that Jennifer pays for what she did. Gwen asks if they should call the police. Leo clarifies that he means make her pay as in money because he has legal bills, she has medical bills, and they don’t have a job. Gwen is unsure. Leo argues that she deserves a win after the hell she’s been through or she can just lie here and think about everything she lost. Leo asks what she says. The nurse then comes in to take Gwen to radiology for a follow up CT scan. Leo points out that it sounds very expensive and tells Gwen they will talk later as he then exits.

Jennifer has another flashback to driving to the police station, swearing to Abigail that everyone who ever hurt her her would pay, and then running over Gwen. Jennifer then realizes what she had done.

Will tells Alex and Sonny to stop being so stubborn and make up already. Alex admits he shouldn’t have gotten so defensive while Sonny admits he probably shouldn’t have called him a snake. Will tells them to keep going. Alex doesn’t want to fight with Sonny. Sonny says the same. Will encourages them to move on to the apologies. Alex apologizes and then Sonny does as well as they shake hands. Will calls that much better. Alex adds that he really did come to make things better but he was pissed off after running in to Stephanie and she bit his head off for asking how she’s doing. Sonny doesn’t think it was about him. Will explains that Stephanie’s mom is in the hospital and is pretty sick.

Jack tells Xander that if Jennifer drove her car in to Gwen, he has to talk to her and find out exactly what she remembers. Jack says they will figure out how to deal with it. Xander promises not to say anything. Jack thanks him for understanding and says they will talk about his job another time. Jack says he has to talk to Jennifer right now as it can’t wait. Jack remembers he was picking up takeout for Gwen, so Xander offers to take it to her and asks what are friends for.

Jennifer realizes that she was the one driving the car that hit Gwen and begins to panic.

Alex questions what’s wrong with Stephanie’s mother. Sonny says they aren’t sure but both of Will’s grandmothers are sick with it too. Alex wishes he knew before acting like a jerk as he would have at least offered her a shoulder to cry on.

Stephanie questions Chad wanting to help her. Chad points out that if they split the work, they’ll get it done in half the time. Stephanie asks how he would even know what to do. Chad responds that he’s done some PR at DiMera so he’s sure he could figure it out. Stephanie questions him wanting to pitch in for Titan. Chad says he’s unemployed and his kids are at school so he has time and it’s up to her. Stephanie accepts his help and gives him a press release to start with.

Xander goes to the hospital with takeout from the Pub. Sarah sees him and calls it a nice surprise, asking if he brought her lunch. Xander clarifies that it’s for Gwen from Jack as he ran in to him at the Pub. Xander asks if Gwen is in her room but Sarah says she’s taking tests so she will have a nurse bring it to her when she gets out. Xander thanks her. Sarah questions why Jack sent him. Xander says he would’ve brought it himself but he’s going through something.

Jack goes home looking for Jennifer but instead finds Leo, who says Jennifer isn’t home but the door was open so he let himself in. Leo says he needed to see Jack which he questions. Leo suggests Jack bring out his check book because his addict wife got behind the wheel and plowed in to his best friend, so if he wants him to keep his mouth shut, he’s going to write him a very large check.

Jennifer goes to visit Gwen at the hospital. Gwen asks what brings her by and if she came to finish her off.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Summer: Thank you.

[ Laughter ]

Diane: Sit down.

Mariah: Kyle and summer, please join hands.

Noah: Dearly beloved…

Tessa: Friends and family…

Mariah: We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life’s most remarkable moments — the marriage between two people who have chosen to commit their lives to one another. And today, with their first wedding anniversary right around the corner, they have decided to renew their vows.

Kyle: Impossible as it sounds, you are more breathtaking today than you were on our wedding day.

Summer: I was just about to say the same thing to you.

Kyle: Mm.

Mariah: That’s the spirit, you two.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

Mariah: This isn’t a formal wedding ceremony. They already had one in italy. Today is for kyle and summer to share their joy with their nearest and dearest, bringing us all together on this beautiful autumn day to celebrate their love.

Tucker: The countdown begins.

Noah: We are here to bear witness to summer and kyle’s love. Now, I haven’t always had the best understanding of what love should look like. But when I see these two and how hard they fought to be together, to stay together, suddenly it all makes sense to me, wanting the best for one another, growing together, and trusting in each other and that love. It doesn’t get greater than that.

Tessa: I can’t sing today for the happy couple, but I’ve still been writing. And when I woke up this morning and thought about today, i jotted down some lyrics. “We were children together. We grew up together. We went our separate ways. But nothing can keep us apart, not even an ocean, because our hearts belong to each other.

Mariah: Kyle and summer have written their own vows to each other. So, ladies first.

Chelsea: Your dad should have been here by now. I wonder what’s keeping him.

Connor: It’s no big deal.

Chelsea: Well, it kind of is. You know, this is supposed to be a family thing.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

[ Sighs ]

Connor: What’s wrong?

Chelsea: Well, your dad is stuck at a meeting at jabot. He’s not gonna be able to make it after all.

Connor: Oh.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ]

Connor: Well, can’t the two of us do whatever the three of us were going to be doing?

Chelsea: You’re right. You’re right. This is important, and it shouldn’t wait.

[ Breathes deeply ] Um… okay, I need to explain something to you.

Connor: Okay. What’s it about?

Chelsea: Something that could change your life, hopefully for the better. Ever leave your clothes in the dryer

Chelsea: I love you so much. You are the greatest joy of my life. Nobody means more to me in this world than you do. You know that, right?

Connor: Yeah. What’s going on? I mean, you said this was important, but you’re making it sound, like, scary almost.

Chelsea: No. Oh, no. Connor, there’s nothing to be scared of. I promise. I just, um — I need to tell you something about my past.

Connor: Okay.

Chelsea: Before your father and I had you, before we were together even… I was pregnant. I was pretty much alone in the world back then. You know, I wasn’t ready to be a mom. I couldn’t handle that responsibility, you know? The thought of taking care of this tiny little human — it was just too overwhelming.

Connor: What did you do?

Chelsea: I made sure the baby was raised the way he deserved to be raised, surrounded by love and being cared for in a way i wasn’t capable of giving him at the time.

Connor: He?

Chelsea: Yeah. Yeah. I had a little boy. Letting this other family raise him was the best thing I could possibly do because this child grew up with a great life, surrounded by people who were devoted to him. I know this is true because the little boy I’m talking about is your cousin johnny.

Summer: I have loved this man for as long as I can remember. Even when I couldn’t admit it to myself. You were always a part of me. And now [Breathes deeply] As your wife, I love you more every single day for being my best friend. For making me laugh. For surprising me in all of the best ways, like coming up with the idea for this beautiful ceremony. Or always having the perfect negroni ready for me exactly when I need it the most.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

Summer: And for believing in me…as much as I believe in you. I love you.

Kyle: We’ve been through some stuff, you and I.

Summer: Right?

[ Both laugh ]

Kyle: But every moment leading up to our wedding in milan only made us stronger. And every moment since then only proved even more we were meant to be. Living in milan was glorious, being newlyweds and parents to the best little boy in the world. But now our journey has brought us back home again. And I can’t wait to find out what comes next. And I know one thing for sure — it’ll never be boring.

[ Laughter ]

[ Sighs ] No one has ever excited and challenged me as much as you have. I’m so thankful you are my wife. And like I said almost a year ago when we exchanged rings, ti amero per sempre, summer. For those of you who don’t speak italian…

[ Laughter ] …That was, “I will love you forever.”

Summer: [ Laughs ]

Tucker: Hey, it’s me. Ready to go? Great. See you on the roof. Hell, yeah, I want to make an entrance.

[ Chuckles ] So, you’re 45.

Connor: You were pregnant with johnny?

Chelsea: Yes.

Connor: And you gave him away as a baby, just, like, handed him over to billy and victoria?

Chelsea: No, it wasn’t like that.

Connor: Then what was it like?

Chelsea: It was a huge decision. I mean, this was the best thing for everybody.

Connor: Does johnny know?

Chelsea: Billy and victoria told him the truth a few days ago, that victoria is his mother always, but I’m his biological mother, which makes you and johnny half-brothers. I’m hoping this can bring us all closer now…like family.

Tessa: If kyle and summer’s parents would like to share any special thoughts on this day, we would love to hear from them.

Nick: Alright, I’ll start us off.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: I was, uh, lucky enough to be at your ceremony in milan. Very happy to be part of this one, too. You said you wanted some advice from time to time, so I’m just gonna run right with that.

Kyle: Already?

Summer: Oh, no.

[ Laughs ]

Nick: Just hear me out. Um…when you choose to spend your life with someone, you can never tell them enough just how much you value them, how much you appreciate everything they do, and that you are always on their side. Trust me on this one. Just do it at least once a day. Promise me you’ll remember that.

Summer: I will. Thank you, dad.

Nick: I was with my beautiful, amazing daughter earlier, and I told her I was completely awed by her. You’re a lucky man, kyle. And I’m very, very happy to have you as a son-in-law. I think you’re an incredible father, an incredible husband. I’m very proud of this family that you’ve created. And I’m sure you and summer will find a lot of joy in the days ahead. I love you both.

Phyllis: I’ll go next.

Nick: Okay.

Phyllis: Um… uh, okay. Well… [ Sighs ] Earlier, tessa said that you inspired her. You inspired me. Both of you. You have grown so much as a couple, and you’ve had a lot of speed bumps, a lot of obstacles, and you’ve overcome every single one. That takes a lot of tenacity. A lot. That’s what every parent wants for their child, the kind of happiness you share. I mean, that’s what everybody wants for themselves, right? Anyway, kyle and summer — they are living symbols of forgiveness and trust.

[ Voice breaking ] Your connection is profound. It’s beautiful. And you inspire me. Anything is possible. The sky’s the limit. So…keep on soaring. Um…you can achieve anything. I love you.

Summer: Thanks, mom.

Jack: A far wiser man than i once said, “the best romance is inside marriage.” The very best love stories happen after the wedding, not before.” But kyle and summer already know that. They know that the wedding is just the beginning of life’s greatest adventure when you venture forth into the world with your partner by your side. And, oh, what a partnership these two have. The last few months I have had a front-row seat to watch kyle and summer together as they toiled day long at work and then live under the same roof. Not every couple could handle that kind of togetherness. These two make it look so easy because they are so completely in sync. I want you to know it means the world to me and to traci and to ashley, who couldn’t be here today, that you chose to have this ceremony here in this home that means so much to all of us, that this memory is part of abbott history. I know the two of you will build so many more exciting experiences that will add pages to the story of your family’s life. But today, you both have added immeasurably to ours. Thank you.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Um… um, I-I wasn’t at kyle and summer’s wedding in milan, and that — that was totally my fault and one of the, um, most painful regrets I have about, uh, staying away for as long as I did. But, um, that was yesterday, and today is about renewed hope and love.

[ Voice breaking ] I’ve — I’ve gotten to know kyle all over again, and I’ve started a relationship with summer. And the kindness and generosity that you two have shown me and your — your willingness to give me another chance — it’s a testament to who you are as individuals and as a couple. And I am — I am so grateful and honored to be part of your world and of your brilliant future together.

[ Sniffles ] I love you. Sorry.

Mariah: Alright. This is it, the moment of truth. Summer and kyle, do you promise to keep each other as husband and wife, for better or worse, richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, as long as you both shall live?

Both: We will.

Mariah: And will you maintain your vows to each other to love, honor, and cherish each other always?

Both: We do.

Mariah: And to all of you loved ones out there, do you promise to support, love, and cherish this couple as they so fabulously deserve?

Together: We will!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Mariah: Alright, then.

[ Laughs ]

Noah: Only one thing left to do. Summer and kyle abbott, we now pronounce you husband and wife…again.

[ Laughter ] Let what god has joined together nobody put asunder.

Tessa: Amen!

[ Helicopter blades whirring ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Whirring intensifies ]

[ Wind whipping ]

[ Wind and whirring continue ] Technically when enamel is gone,

Connor: Johnny and I are cousins, so we’re already family. Are you saying you want to be family with johnny now, want to be his mother all of a sudden? Why? Did I do something wrong?

Chelsea: No. Connor, no. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I am so proud of you. I’m so proud to be your mom. None of that’s changed. I-I thought you’d see this as a good thing.

Connor: Are you serious right now? What’s good about it?

Chelsea: Well, it’s a way to get closer to johnny. You know, you can get to know him better as brothers.

Connor: I don’t get it. Why are you making it sound like this is about me? It’s about you.

Chelsea: Connor!

Connor: If you didn’t need to be with johnny before, why do you need to be with him now?

Chelsea: I-I don’t need to. I just — I hoped and I thought that —

Connor: How come you never told me about johnny until now?

Chelsea: Well, billy and victoria, your father and I — we wanted to wait until you boys were old enough to understand.

Connor: I don’t understand, and I don’t want to talk about this anymore.

Chelsea: Sweetheart —

Connor: Take me back to the ranch. I want to go home!

Chelsea: Connor! Connor!

Tucker: Oh, hey. [ Chuckles ]

Billy: Hey.

Tucker: Uh, I hope I didn’t miss the festivities.

Jack: Tucker mccall. What the hell are you doing here?

Nikki: Thank god your father isn’t here. Imagine what that “hello” would look like.

Tucker: Well, I heard about this glorious occasion. You know how gossip gets around this town. Uh, and since I’m back, i thought it’d be nice to say hello to as many people as i could in one fell swoop. More efficient that way.

Jack: This is not the time or place for a meet-and-greet. What, you disappear for years, then drop in on a private family gathering — by helicopter, no less? You have no right. You are not welcome.

Tucker: Yeah, uh, my humble apologies for the lack of advanced notice. I certainly didn’t mean to make this solely about my arrival in genoa city. I wanted to bring good tidings to the lovely young couple there and — wow. Sorry, I just got to take all this in. This is so beautiful. What a gorgeous setting, jack.

Summer: He has some nerve showing up here, on today of all days.

Diane: Who does tucker mccall think he is, barging in here like this, stepping all over your lovely ceremony, injecting himself where he’s not wanted?

Phyllis: Oh, that’s rich, that she would say that after she’s insinuating herself into jack and kyle’s life.

Nick: It is ridiculous, him showing up like this.

Phyllis: Let’s get rid of him, please. Can you?

Nick: We’re just gonna let jack handle this. It’s his house.

Tucker: [ Whistles ] Diane jenkins. I read about your return from the dead. I am very happy to see you looking good.

Jack: Back off.

Tucker: Oh, no, no, I — i mean all that sincerely, jack. I don’t bear diane — or anybody here, for that matter — any ill will.

Jack: I assume you’re here to see ashley. Fortunately, she’s stuck in paris, couldn’t get here in time to put up with your unwelcome presence. Now get off my property. A dental tool is round for a reason.

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Nope

Tucker: I promise I won’t impose much longer. Please try to be patient. I just want to congratulate summer and kyle, give them a gift, okay? Uh, I wish you both the very best. Please accept this as a token of my esteem. Key to a vintage bentley. I understand your grandfather preferred bentleys to rolls-royces.

Kyle: Yeah.

Tucker: Yeah. This is a classic one.

Kyle: Thanks, but no thanks.

Summer: The only gift I want is for you to leave.

Tucker: I see. Uh, well, it would meant a lot to me if you accepted. Um…but maybe once you’ve had a chance to enjoy the car, you’ll feel differently. Please. Good luck. Okay. There it is. Um, you all enjoy the rest of the ceremony, and, uh, we’re going to be seeing a lot more of each other from now on ’cause I’m sticking around. Before I go, I’d like a word with you, jack, if you please.

Jack: If it’ll get you out of here any quicker, I will happily talk to you. Make it quick.

Tucker: Um, when do you expect ashley to return?

Jack: Are you kidding me? You did this as a ploy to get ashley’s attention? She would never have appreciated this.

Tucker: I really need to speak with her. I want to make amends. I’m certain she’ll want to hear what I have to say.

Jack: Don’t bet on it. If you don’t want things to get a whole lot uglier real fast, i suggest you get back on that helicopter and fly away right now.

Allie: A bentley. Wow.

Noah: Vintage, nonetheless.

Mariah: One heck of a gift.

Summer: It’s creepy.

Kyle: It’s over the top.

Summer: Especially from someone that we have never been close to.

Kyle: It wasn’t about us. It was like he wanted to put on a show or something.

Tessa: Tucker does have a reputation in the industry for being a colorful personality, which in the music biz is saying something.

Mariah: That’s not the only thing he’s known for, at least around here. As well as being a major player in the industry, he’s also devon’s dad.

Allie: Wait. You’re kidding. Are they close at all?

Mariah: I don’t know that they’re necessarily on bad terms, but they haven’t seen each other in ages. Wait. Do you think that he’s — he’s back for dominic?

Kyle: I could see that — his son and his grandson. Wanting to make up for lost time.

Noah: Yeah, it could be. Still doesn’t explain why he felt the need to literally drop out of the sky and crash the party.

Chelsea: [ Breathes deeply ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Sniffles ]

[ Line ringing ] Pick up. Please pick up. Pick up. Pick up, please.

[ Sighs ]

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Billy: Chelsea. Hey.

Chelsea: Hey. Um, are you free by any chance? Could you meet me at crimson lights?

Billy: Now? I’m — I’m in the middle of a family function. Kyle and summer renewed their vows.

Chelsea: Oh. [ Sighs ] Oh. Sorry for interrupting. My timing is terrible today, in every way it seems.

[ Voice breaking ] I just — I can’t get anything right.

Billy: Okay, hold on. Um, listen, the main event is — is pretty much over, so I can sneak out for a little bit.

Chelsea: Really? Are you sure?

Billy: Yeah. Stay where you are, and I’ll be there as soon as I can, okay?

Chelsea: Okay. Thanks.

[ Sighs heavily ] Hey! It’s me! Your dry skin!

Chelsea: I completely blew it with connor. He refused to speak to me the whole drive home. And then when I dropped him off at the ranch, he ran inside without even saying goodbye to me. It’s like I can’t do anything right.

Billy: I didn’t realize you were planning on telling him so soon.

Chelsea: Well, I thought it was the right thing to do since johnny knows the truth. But I — I completely miscalculated the way connor would react. I think I really screwed this up.

Billy: I mean, this is complicated stuff for adults, let alone for kids. And it feels like right now you’re letting your emotions make some pretty major decisions. And that’s not always a good thing. I think you need to slow down a little bit and just take a step back. Maybe talk to someone that knows how to proceed in these kind of situations, like a child psychologist or an adoption specialist.

Chelsea: I should have done that. I should have done that first. I don’t know what I was thinking. Now I opened up this whole pandora’s box because I was just so insistent on it.

[ Sniffles ] I think I’ve wrecked my relationship with both boys now.

Billy: No, hey, you don’t have to go there, okay? These boys are smart. They got big hearts, okay? They just need some time to process through this.

Chelsea: But is it gonna work out? I think I’ve just hurt and alienated both johnny and connor, which is the last thing I wanted to do. How do I come back from this? What do I do now?

Billy: [ Sighs ] I can’t answer that for you. But I do have an idea, something that might help in the moment.

[ Up-tempo music playing ]

[ Indistinct singing ]

Nikki: Well, you handled that situation with tucker very admirably. I don’t know that I would have had that much restraint.

Jack: Well, I appreciate the compliment. Look, as long as I have you to myself, I was curious about something.

Nikki: Oh?

Jack: Your trip to L.A. — What was that all about?

Nikki: There’s been a lot of speculation about that. In fact, I’m sure diane is very interested in wanting to know what I was doing there.

Jack: Which was precisely what?

Nikki: Well, I was arranging for this beautiful gown for summer. Although your curiosity is intriguing.

Jack: Really? Why’s that?

Nikki: Well, diane has told anyone who would listen that she has nothing to hide about her time in los angeles. And if you believe that, then you really have no reason to care about my trip. But if you don’t believe it, well, then that’s a whole other matter. Excuse me, won’t you?

Diane: Is everything okay?

Jack: Yes, now that our uninvited guest has departed, everything’s okay.

Diane: Ugh, I can’t believe the nerve of that man, just waltzing in here like that. It’s so obnoxious.

Jack: Yeah, some things never change.

Diane: So, what were you two even talking about?

Jack: He wants to know when ashley will be home.

Diane: You think that’s all he’s after?

Jack: Not on your life. He may say he wants to reconnect with ashley or devon, but… no, he’s up to something. I am sure of it.

Nick: I’m just glad tucker finally left so the kids can finally have some fun.

Victoria: Well, tucker’s choosing to show up now was certainly interesting timing.

Nick: Yeah. Right when chancellor-winters is going public.

Victoria: Do you think there’s a connection?

Nick: I don’t know. Maybe. There could be lots of reasons, though, why he finally showed back up in town.

Victoria: Yeah, well, either way, we need to warn dad.

Phyllis: Okay. Yeah? Okay. I’m dying to hear your proof that diane has been lying about her time away. I’m dying to hear it.

Nikki: Well, deacon turned out to be very helpful. Despite her claims of living a modest lifestyle in L.A., Diane was being driven around town in a bentley.

Phyllis: A bentley. That’s the car that tucker gave kyle and summer.

Nikki: One hell of a coincidence, isn’t it?

You never know

what opportunities

Nikki: When tucker gave the kids that bentley, I about fell over.

Phyllis: I was watching diane and tucker, and it seemed that they were genuinely shocked to see each other here.

Nikki: Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Deacon said he would occasionally see a man in the backseat with her, but he couldn’t get a good look at the face. So it could have been tucker, or it could have been some other sugar daddy that she’s latched onto. Or maybe she has a pile of money squirreled away and it was her money. I mean, we just don’t know.

Phyllis: Yeah. I imagine you’re gonna keep on looking into it.

Nikki: Of course. Now, the car is owned by a company named private image limited. They’re based in london, but they have a branch in L.A. Victor put his people on the case, and they sent me a list of some of their investors. So, do you recognize any of these?

Phyllis: I mean… no. No, but diane’s keeping a secret. She’s definitely keeping a secret. We can’t stop now.

Nikki: Absolutely not — because whatever it is, we’re going to expose it… and her.

Billy: Come on. I come here from time to time when I feel like the walls are caving in. I think you might be feeling a little bit of that right now. So it feels like the right time for a little catharsis.

Chelsea: [ Chuckles ] Billy, I know you mean well, but what are we doing on the roof of the grand phoenix?

Billy: I feel like you’re a little overwhelmed, chelsea.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ]

Billy: So it’s time to take some control, and you can start to do that right here, right now.

Chelsea: How?

Billy: That anxiety and that fear that you have right now — it’s — you know just as well as anyone it starts to eat you up inside. Emotionally, physically. All of it starts to fill your brain, your veins, and your lungs, and you need to get it out. And I mean really get it out. Like this.

[ Breathes deeply ] Ahhhhhhhhhhh!

Chelsea: [ Chuckles ]

Billy: Whew. Go ahead. Give it a try.

Chelsea: Me? Oh, no way. No. Everybody in this town thinks I’m nuts as it is.

Billy: No. Don’t worry about anybody else, okay? This is about you. Come on. Take everything that is pent up inside and scream it out. You’ll be surprised how freeing it feels.

Chelsea: [ Breathes deeply ] Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

[ Exhales sharply ]

[ Laughs ]

[ Breathing deeply ]

Traci: Hey. Are you looking for somebody?

Victoria: Uh…billy. Have you seen him?

Traci: Oh, um, he left a little while ago. Something came up, and I assume it was business.

Victoria: Oh, probably. Duty calls and all that. Thank you.

Traci: You’re welcome.

Noah: Oh, these are lovely. Just one more.

Jack: Here, let’s get one of you and allie. Come on. Come on!

Allie: And the happy couple?

Summer: Yes.

Noah: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, sure.

[ Laughter ] Now to work the —

Jack: I’ll figure it out. Here we are.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: Oh, this is nice. Ready?

[ Camera shutter clicks ] One more.

[ Camera shutter clicks ] Okay, now a goofy one.

Summer: [ Laughs ]

[ Camera shutter clicks ]

[ Laughter ]

Jack: That’s it. There is your wedding photo. Have fun with that.

Allie: Oh, wow!

Summer: That’s good.

Nikki: Master harrison has something for the bride and groom.

Allie: Ooh.

Kyle: Presents? For us?

Summer: Show us, sweetie.

Kyle: Ooh.

Summer: Wow. It’s so pretty.

Kyle: That’s a great card. I love it, buddy.

Nikki: Wait till you see what’s inside.

Kyle: There’s more?

Summer: Ooh, let’s see.

Kyle: Ooh.

Noah: Oh, killer design, harrison.

Allie: Ooh, harrison, what are those?

Nikki: I understand they’re coupons.

Kyle: Coupons? For what?

Harrison: For hugs and kisses!

Summer: Oh, I love it!

Kyle: We’re gonna redeem some of those right now.

Summer: Yes.

[ Laughter ] Mwah!

Noah: Alright.

Kyle: Okay. Let’s take a picture. Come on.

Noah: Say cheese!

[ Camera shutter clicks ]

[ Laughter ]

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: Ohh. Shoot. I startled you. Sorry. You seemed engrossed. Something important?

Diane: No, no. It’s just a minor work thing. And, um — and nothing is more important than kyle and summer’s happiness.

Phyllis: Nothing is more important. We have to enjoy these moments with them while we can, right?

Diane: Yeah, absolutely.

Phyllis: Uh-huh.

Diane: Well, I’m going to go mingle. We’re here today to set the record

Victoria: Tucker shows up at the same time that chancellor-winters is prepping to go public. I mean, it’s got to be connected somehow. Maybe he’s working behind the scenes with devon.

Victor: Or jill. You know, he was in bed with her in more ways than one.

Nick: As if there weren’t enough reasons for us to avoid taking control of chancellor-winters, having tucker mccall in the mix is a complication we cannot afford.

Victoria: Well, make no mistake. We’re not backing out of this. Scooping up chancellor-winters is too big of a get. And in no way do I fear tucker mccall. If he comes up with a plan, then we’ll just find a way to outmaneuver him.

Victor: My thoughts exactly.

Victoria: And we’ll know about any complications or potential hazards ahead of time because of our ace in the hole — nate.

[ Elevator doors open ]

Nate: [ Sighs ]

[ Elevator doors close ] Do my eyes deceive me?

Esther: Oh, nate. Hi. How’s my favorite doctor?

Nate: Now your favorite businessman, I hope. I know I have a lot of competition out there.

Esther: Well, there’s always room for one more favorite, especially someone as charming as you.

Nate: Oh, well, thank you.

Esther: [ Chuckles ]

Nate: So, what brings you by chancellor-winters?

Elena: I have a meeting with devon.

Nate: About what?

Esther: [ Chuckling ] I’m not sure.

Nate: Well, why don’t you wait in here? So, is this the first time you’ve been here since the merger?

Esther: Yeah. Mrs. C would be so impressed. It was a big move, and she’d be so happy that her grandson’s company has joined hers.

Nate: Say, you knew katherine as well as anyone.

Esther: [ Chuckles ] The stories I could tell.

Nate: Mm. She was an inspiration. To have accomplished so much in an era where it was rare for a woman to run a big company…

Esther: Yes. People underestimated her because she inherited the business from her husband, and so they didn’t think that she was qualified.

Nate: Mm. I know that feeling.

Esther: Really? But you graduated from medical school. How could anyone ever think that you don’t know what you’re doing?

Nate: Oh, you’d be surprised. But I’m sure it’s nothing compared to what she went through. I’m sure she’s had more than her fair share of detractors and naysayers.

Esther: [ Chuckles ] More than you can imagine. And the worst one was jill. She was a thorn in my side, too. It’s crazy how she could become co-owner of this company.

Nate: Ah. I never had any issues with jill. She’s always been so helpful. If there are any problems at this company, they have nothing to do with jill.

Esther: Well, yes, she makes me crazy, but I guess I do kind of wish that jill was in genoa city full time. I mean, in the final decades of her life, mrs. C made peace with jill, and they eventually became co-ceos of chancellor.

Nate: Wow. So, katherine was willing to share her power. Hmm. That’s fascinating. You know, I would love to know more about katherine the businesswoman, if you wouldn’t mind.

Esther: Mind? Oh, no, I-I’d love to.

Devon: Elena, I trust your judgment, so you can tell me the truth and tell me what I’ve done that’s causing friction in your relationship.

Elena: You didn’t do anything per se. I’m just saying that i understand why you’re putting nate through the paces. You’re running a business. The success and failure of every decision falls on you.

Devon: Yeah, and I appreciate you understanding that.

Elena: But I think the only thing nate cares about is making his mark and showing everyone that he deserves to be where he is, that he has the talent and the courage to operate at that level.

Devon: Yeah, I know that. And I wouldn’t have hired him unless I thought he was talented or I thought he could handle this job. I mean, he’s one of the smartest people I know, and I have very high expectations for him. But he knows this already, right?

Elena: I think he’s just frustrated that things haven’t happened as quickly as he wants them to or in the way that he wants them to.

Devon: He still feels like that? ‘Cause since he’s come back to work, I’ve been under the impression that he’s really making an effort to respect the hierarchy.

Elena: It’s just the way that nate is handling his feelings. I can’t accept it.

Devon: Are we talking about just him struggling with this transition into the corporate world, or is it something completely different here?

Elena: I’m sorry, devon. I’m gonna head back to work.

Devon: You sure?

Elena: I’ll see you later. Ever leave your clothes in the dryer

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Let’s be real…

Esther: Oh, my goodness!

Devon: Hey. What’d I miss?

Nate: Hey.

Devon: Esther, you’re looking beautiful, as always.

Esther: Oh, you.

[ Chuckles ]

Devon: Everything all right with you?

Nate: Yeah. Why wouldn’t it be?

Esther: I was just telling nate how mrs. C liked to shake people up. She wasn’t shy.

Devon: No. And she didn’t waste one second of life on this planet.

Esther: Oh, that’s for sure.

Devon: She had a motto. Remember that?

Esther: Yes. “Live until I die.” And it wasn’t just a saying to her.

Devon: That’s right, not at all. She grabbed life with both hands and lived it. She saw the places she wanted to see. She had a whole bucket list she checked off. She was even lucky enough to find love later in life.

Esther: Yeah, she grabbed this happiness and hold on tight.

Nate: Words to live by.

Devon: Yeah.

Esther: So, devon…

Devon: Yeah?

Esther: …Why’d you want to see me?

Devon: Well, I wanted to see you because I’ve been thinking about a conversation that we had not too long ago.

Esther: Uh-oh. What’d I say?

Devon: You were just telling me how miles and bella are growing up and how you’re not taking care of the chancellor mansion anymore.

Esther: Yeah. That. Yeah.

Devon: And so I started thinking about our whole principle behind forming chancellor-winters. You know, it’s because we wanted it to be a family enterprise ’cause that’s something that’s very important to me.

Nate: I can’t begin to tell you how I feel about being a part of this.

Devon: And, esther, you are part of the chancellor legacy.

Esther: Oh, that means so much to me.

Devon: Well, it’s very, very true. And we would love to have you a part of what we’re building here, if you’d like to be.

Esther: De– wait. Devon, wait, wait. A-are you offering me a job?

Devon: I absolutely am offering you a job, yes. Our receptionist has to take off for personal reasons —

Esther: Oh! Oh, no! No! The answer — yes! The answer is yes!

Devon: Yeah?

Esther: [ Laughing ] Yes!

Devon: Good.

Esther: Wow.

Summer: All I know is when i look back on the day that we chose each other again in front of all of our friends and family, the last thing I want to think about is —

Noah: A stupid stunt pulled by some self-aggrandizing jerk? Yeah. Yeah, I agree. We should erase that part.

Summer: Consider it forgotten.

Noah: And tonight doesn’t have to end. After party tonight. My club.

Kyle: Ooh. Are you up for it?

Summer: Mm, dance all night with you?

Kyle: Oh, I thought you’d never ask.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

Allie: Ah, they kissed! That makes it official. After party it is.

Noah: Save me a dance. Or all of them.

Allie: Mm. Only if you play your cards right.

Noah: Alright, it’s official. I’ll see you guys tonight. Bye. See you, jack.

Jack: Good night. You know what? I think it’s a great idea. We could all use a little palate cleansing, particularly after tucker very nearly spoiled your day.

Kyle: I’m sorry. What happened?

Summer: Tucker who? What?

[ Laughter ]

Tucker: No, we’re still partners. I need you to continue to be my eyes and ears inside the abbott world.

Diane: And if I refuse? What, are you threatening me?

Tucker: I’m reminding you that you would not have been able to make progress with your son, nor would you have had any kind of important place with your adorable little grandson, were it not for my help. So I need you to continue assisting me until I can get a foothold. ‘Cause, you know, I’m facing the same uphill battle you faced, right? I mean, your crimes, granted, were more egregious than mine, which gives me hope — ’cause if you can overcome your obstacles, so can I.

Diane: To what end?

Tucker: Why do you want to know that?

Diane: Because I feel protective of the abbotts now. They’re my family. So I need you to tell me exactly what you want from them.

Jack: Are things that busy at marchetti? ‘Cause I honestly think you two deserve a honeymoon break.

Kyle: Oh, funny you should mention that. I have already lined up a villa on the beach in costa rica.

Summer: Mm, he surprised me. He even got me this cute little straw hat.

Kyle: Yeah, we’re still working out the schedule and things, but we hope we can get away in the next couple of weeks.

Summer: You know, as excited as I am about a romantic vacation, I’m still a little nervous about leaving marchetti and harrison.

Jack: Don’t worry about harrison. He’s got me, he’s got diane, mrs. Martinez, traci.

Kyle: [ Chuckling ] Okay, we get the picture.

Summer: Prepare to return to a spoiled kid.

Jack: No, we won’t peel any of his grapes for him. Unless he asks. You can always video-chat with him every night.

Kyle: We’re going to pack some picture books so we can still read him bedtime stories.

Jack: Great. As for marchetti, you’ve hired a great staff. Lean on them. Delegate. Look, you two take time. Enjoy the love you share with each other. You deserve it. We’ll take care of the rest.

Kyle: Okay, but what about our mothers? Is it safe to leave them without supervision?

Jack: At the moment, yes. There is a stalemate. I wouldn’t call it peace, but I — they’re not fighting. Take full advantage of that.

Esther: I should warn you — I cannot possibly start until tomorrow at 8:00.

Devon: Well, guess what. Tomorrow at 8:00 is perfect.

Esther: Really?

Devon: Absolutely. Yes. We’ll have the current receptionist start training you, and then I can go up and take care of everything in H.R.

Esther: I will learn the routine in no time.

Devon: I have no doubt that you will.

Esther: I’m so glad you thought of me.

Devon: Oh, absolutely. I’ve been thinking about you for a long time. I’m just happy that this opened up and we can make something work out.

Nate: Welcome aboard.

Esther: [ Chuckling ] Thank you. Oh! I am an employee of chancellor-winters.

Devon: Yes, you are.

Esther: Well, starting tomorrow at 8:00. Oh, no. Tomorrow? Oh, my gosh. I’ve got to find something to wear. I’ve got to go.

[ Laughter ] Mrs. C would be so proud of you.

Devon: Oh.

Esther: I got to go.

Devon: [ Chuckles ] Thank you. We’ll see you tomorrow.

Esther: Thanks. Bye!

Nate: Good move bringing esther on.

Devon: Oh, yeah, man. It feels like a missing piece to this puzzle having her here. Katherine always considered her family, so it’s only right that we take care of her like this, you know? But, uh, speaking of looking after family, when I asked you before if everything was okay with you, how come you weren’t honest with me?

Victor: Now as devon’s coo, nate hastings is perfectly positioned to find out if tucker mccall had anything to do with chancellor-winters going public.

Victoria: The more intel we have, the better prepared we’ll be.

Nick: Yeah, the sec has a name for that kind of behavior, and they don’t like it.

Victor: Son, no regulations have been violated.

Nick: Yet.

Victoria: Nate has also developed a personal relationship with a consultant that jill brought in to help with the ipo, a woman named audra charles.

Victor: Hmm. Good.

Nick: This is all assuming that nate can continue to lie to his cousins’ faces.

Devon: I asked you not that long ago how things are going between you and elena.

Nate: I said we’d work things out.

Devon: Yes, I know what you said, but I just had a conversation with her.

Nate: What did she say?

Devon: I’m not gonna betray her trust, but I can tell you that she loves you very much and she’s worried about you.

Nate: Yeah. I wish things hadn’t gotten to this point with her.

Devon: Well, I’m gonna say to you the same thing I said to her. If there’s something that I can do to help, I’d like to do it. So, let’s hear your side.

Nate: Elena’s been saying all the right things about me leaving medicine, but the fact of the matter is she never expected this to last. She thought I’d have fun for a while, but ultimately wind back up at memorial.

Devon: Hmm. I mean, I know a lot of your connection was based on being in the same profession.

Nate: Mm. When things got tense between the two of us, elena’s first instinct was to tell me to walk away from chancellor-winters. She’s still focused on the past, how things were. And I’m looking forward.

[ Cellphone pings ] It’s a business matter I need to follow up on.

Devon: Anything I can help with?

Nate: Consider it handled. And for the record, I’m committed to working things out with elena, and I’m hopeful it will happen because I love her. But I want to make one thing clear. I am determined not to allow personal issues to interfere with what I’m trying to accomplish here.

Devon: Okay. I appreciate your candor.

Nate: Better take care of this. (Hamlet) it’s beggin’! and I’m going to tell you about exciting medicare advantage plans that can provide broad coverage and still may save you money on monthly premiums and prescription drugs. With original medicare you are covered for hospital stays and doctor office visits but you have to meet a deductible for each, and then you’re still responsible for 20% of the cost. Next, let’s look at a medicare supplement plan. As you can see, they cover the same things as original medicare, and they also cover your medicare deductibles and coinsurance. But they often have higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage. Now, let’s take a look at humana’s medicare advantage plans. With a humana medicare advantage plan, hospitals stays, doctor office visits and your original medicare deductibles are covered. And, of course, most humana medicare advantage plans include prescription drug coverage. With no copays or deductibles on tier 1 prescriptions, and zero dollars for routine vaccines, including shingles, at in-network retail pharmacies. In fact, in 2021, humana medicare advantage prescription drug plan members saved an estimated $9,600 on average on their prescription costs. Most humana medicare advantage plans have coverage for vision and hearing. And dental coverage that includes two free cleanings a year, plus dentures, crowns, fillings and more! Most humana medicare advantage plans include a silver sneakers fitness program at no extra cost. You get all of this for as low as a zero-dollar monthly plan premium in many areas; and your doctor and hospital may already be a part of humana’s large network. There is no obligation, so call the number on your screen right now to see if your doctor is in our network; to find out if you could save on your prescriptions, and to get our free decision guide. Humana, a more human way to healthcare.

Can a cream really

reduce wrinkles?

Nate: I got here as quickly as I could. What’s going on?

Victoria: Tucker mccall has returned to genoa city.

Nate: Devon didn’t say anything about his father coming to town.

Victoria: Yeah, I gathered since you didn’t mention it to me, which means one of two things. Either tucker hasn’t told devon that he’s here, or devon knows that his prodigal father has returned and he’s just keeping you out of the loop.

Nate: I wonder if he found out about the plan to go public.

Victoria: I had the same thought. It’s possible that he’s thinking of making his own move on the company. With him, anything is possible.

Nate: I’ll see what I can find out.

Victoria: It’s imperative that you do. If there’s a wild card in the mix, it could change the entire game.

Phyllis: You know, it feels so wrong having these secret meetings here, but then it feels so right.

Nikki: [ Chuckles ] Well, since summer is suspicious of our new civility, I thought it would be a good idea.

Phyllis: I mean, I can’t believe I had to swear to her that I wouldn’t try to run diane out of town. I guess she wants me to just stand back and watch this woman try to worm her way into the lives of everyone we love.

Nikki: Well, from what I can tell, you’re doing a good job faking it.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Thanks. So, tucker. His desire to give this very ostentatious gift to kyle and summer — could that link him to diane in los angeles?

Nikki: With any luck, it will.

Phyllis: Alright, so, you have big news to tell me. I’m ready.

Nikki: Thanks to victor’s team, we have a fascinating new piece of the puzzle.

Tucker: Trust me — I’m not out to hurt anyone. I just want what you got when you came back to genoa city — forgiveness and acceptance, mostly from ashley. I’ve made no secret of that.

Diane: I am sure that people are already suspicious about the two of us being back here at the same time. And if anybody puts the pieces together, then all the help you’ve given me will be for nothing. And I have worked too long and too hard to lose what I’ve managed to get back. So, please. Come on. Just please reconsider continuing to use me as your spy.

[ Knock on door ]

Victor: Mccall? I know you’re in there.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Drew?! You’re awake. You’re here.

[ Chuckles ] Yeah. Where else would I be? Uh, I don’t know. I-I thought maybe you left. Hm. And if I had, would you have missed me? We really need to rethink this whole presentation. We’re going for classic and clean, not sterile.

[ Knock on door ] Paul, I’m gonna have to call you back. Sasha. Sasha: I’m sorry for interrupting. No, no. You’re not. I’m so sorry. Thanks. I know I’m supposed to be taking a step back from the company, but… I didn’t know where else to go. Forget the company. Whatever you need, I’m here. Book: Pick it up. I’ll get it later. Pick it up! Man, you dropped it. You pick it up. I said pick it up!

[ Groaning ] What is your problem?! God! You’re the one with the problem, my friend.

Me. Why do you ask about reiko? Finn doesn’t mention her. To me, at least. Well, I’m sure it brings up difficult memories. Losing reiko had an enormous impact on finn’s life. What’s going on? Is diane okay? Don’t tell me she didn’t make it. Ugh! I can’t tell you how good that felt! Not only to be back on campus, but to have no one stare at us like we’re a bunch of circus performers! Apparently, we’re last semester’s news.

[ Chuckles ] Ugh! What’s wrong? I’ve tried every social-media platform. I can’t find him anywhere. Who? Dex. I have no way to reach him.

[ Door opens ] Sonny: Hey. What are you doing here? Waiting for you. Frank said you were on your way. He made me a hell of a cup of coffee, by the way. Thank you again. Anytime. Yeah. Uh, any update on diane? Uh, no, not yet. But i am here about the attacks. What about ’em? Where’s your employee — dex heller?

Why are you looking for dex? Where is he? Is he working today? No. His day off. Mm. Um, w-why are you asking me these questions?

[ Sighs ] I can’t with this guy. He’s scaring off all the customers! No offense. Oh. Hello. Hi, dad. Hi. Dante. Kristina. Can you just please reassign this one and give me back dex?

[ Sighs ] So why are you trying to find dex again? I heard he was being questioned by the pcpd about the attacks. Whoa. What? Do they have evidence against him? Circumstantial. I mean, dex was in the area either before or after all of the attacks. But the evidence that i have points away from him. Oh, so he’ll be cleared. You weren’T. Not nearly as quickly as you should have been, at least. Good point. Okay. I-I still don’t get where you fit in, though. I just think it’s strange. I mean, dex starts getting questioned, and then he goes completely mia? I mean, he could be anywhere. It’s not like you know him that well. I mean… he could be lying low so that he can stay out of the spotlight. Or maybe he is guilty and he left town. Maybe. Or he’s with family. A significant other? Joss, what’s going on? Why are you so interested in this guy? What are you, a ninja? Damn. She figured out my secret identity! I didn’t even hear you leave this morning. Good! That’s good. I was trying to be quiet so you didn’t wake up. I can’t believe how late it is. Although I’m not surprised. I could not fall asleep last night. Yeah, I know. I heard you tossing and turning. Yeah? Sorry. Don’t have to be sorry. Are you always such a-a restless sleeper? Well, I’m — sleeping alone takes some getting used to. Hmm. I could help with that. N-not like that. I mean…

[ Laughs ] I mean, I could and I totally would in a heartbeat, but we’ve already had that conversation. I know that. Yeah. What I’m trying to say is I, uh — I learned some sleeping techniques while I was in the service, and those techniques can help you fall asleep in less than five minutes. Ah. I could have used that last night. You know, I had this awful dream that virginia’s grave was being dug up and peyton was just standing there laughing. But we’re not gonna let that happen, remember? Yes, and I wanted to tell you that I appreciate you offering to help me. I really do. But…? But I think I should just call diane and see what my legal options are. Oh. About diane… maxie: Sorry. What for? Right after nathan died, people were forever trying to ply me with tea. Half the time I felt like throwing it in their faces. And I’m now realizing they were just trying to do whatever they could for me.

[ Sighs ] What I’m trying to say is you’re under no obligation to actually drink that. I like earl grey. Is there anything else I can do for you? Anything at all? I, um — I need an outfit for brando’s funeral. I was going through my closet, and the only thing that’s appropriate is the dress I wore to liam’s funeral, and I-I can’t — no, no, of course not. I was gonna go shopping, but as I was walking into wyndham’s, I remembered my credit cards don’t work. I’m really sorry about the conservatorship. Um, you came to the right place. I can definitely find you the right outfit. Thank you, maxie. Diane made it out of surgery, and the pharma protocol I administered seems to have worked. Thank god. So she’s gonna be alright. That’s the plan. And is she awake? I mean, I’m hoping she’s got some information about the bastard that did this to her. She’s still unconscious, but you’ll be the first to know when she wakes up. Second to know. You stand in line behind me.

[ Chuckles ] Reiko really meant a lot to finn, didn’t she? I wish I could tell you stories about [Chuckles] Their time together. But the truth is, I wasn’t around when they were married. That’s from what I call the “dark period.” Finn and I weren’t in contact. Oh. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to dredge up painful times. Oh. Thanks. And I hate that finn and I, uh, missed out on all that time, but I mostly hate that I wasn’t there to support him when reiko died. But you’re here now. Yes. Mm. Something I’m grateful for every day.

[ Breathes sharply ] If you don’t mind me asking, what — what brought all this up? I’ve just been thinking a lot about the past lately. The past is a tricky thing. Even when you think you’ve let go of it, it has a way of hanging on to you. How am I your problem? You used your connections to steal my job. It took me 12 years to get assigned to the library, and you show up, and I’m out? 12 years. That’s — whew! That’s a long time. Yeah. It is. Pick it up. Okay.

[ Grunts ] God! I’m sorry, okay?! I did not mean to offend you. Mm. Well, anything useless offends me, and it doesn’t get more useless than you! You know, rumor has it that your daddy wanted to buy this place last year. And now hardworking citizens are paying to feed and house you. I think maybe I should give them a tax break, huh? Mnh-mnh. Cyrus: He who commits violence against his brother shall be covered in shame… and destroyed forever.

Go thump your bible somewhere else, renault. I’ll spare you the proselytizing, but… only if you let him up.

[ Grunts ] Conflict disheartens me. And I abhor violence. Right. From convict to convert. You’re a regular walking after-school special. It’s not too late for you, book. If you change your mind, you know where to find me. I sure do. Got lucky with the save, kid. Next time, I’ll make sure we’re not interrupted. How’s the hand? I had that under control, you know. Not from where I was standing. And now? You did me a solid. What do you want for it? God, I can’t believe diane was stabbed. I — oh, and I have messages from josslyn, michael, and sonny. Boy, I’m mother of the year, right? Okay, look, the fact that you weren’t glued to your phone… oh, my god. …The second you got out of bed in the morning? Most people would say that’s a very good thing. Now when your family’s in danger. Okay? To hell with this. I don’t care what sonny says. I’m going back to port charles. Do you really think that’s a good idea? You don’t?! Well — look. Sonny and I don’t necessarily see eye to eye on a lot, but when it comes to your safety, there is a murderer loose in port charles. The only common denominator — is sonny. I know. That means my kids are in danger! Yeah, these are kids that sonny has guarded 24/7, and the man only has so many resources, right? So one less person to guard means more protection for everybody else. So if I stay, I’m protecting my kids? Come on. Well [Sighs] In a way, that’s true. Not to mention the fact that you have unfinished business here, carly. And I happen to know that’s hugely important to you.

[ Groans ] Look. I don’t know. I can send for josslyn, I can send for donna, have them be close if that’s gonna make you feel better, okay? But that leaves avery. And ava and sonny are never gonna let me bring her here. And I don’t want to disrupt josslyn and donna’s lives. I mean, josslyn’s just starting school again. Ugh!

[ Sighs ] They’re safe. They really are. And thanks to you for making that video, I do know that donna and avery are happy. So you’re not gonna hop on the next flight to new york then? I’ll stay put. For now.

[ Sighs ] Trina: Okay. I feel like I’m missing something. So, why are you trying to find dex? Forget I said anything. You’re right. Dex is none of my business. So, um, I heard that ava might be close to getting discharged. You think she’s gonna go back to the gallery soon? No. And neither will I. Ava fired me. What?! Why? Okay, I guess “fired” is a little extra, but… ava thinks it’s safer if the gallery stayed closed. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but ava might be right about that. And I’d be fine with it if she came up with the decision on her own, but it was all curtis. He convinced ava to pull strings to get me a job at the chuck. Wait. The — the chuck? Like, the actual art museum? Yeah, and now I am the “proud” recipient of the murphy-katz foundation fellowship. Well, that sounds like a pretty big deal. It is. It’s a huge honor. Which is why I fully intended on applying for — next year. But now it’s given to me as a distraction to keep me away from the gallery. Okay, well, I know you don’t like how it came about, but… you’re gonna take it, right? No way. I don’t think you have anything to worry about, elizabeth. Meaning? My son lives in the here and now. As important as reiko was to him — and she was — he’s moved on. He’s lived a whole life in the years since reiko died, fathered a child. And now he wants a future with you. Finn doesn’t smile like that at just anybody, you know. In fact, I’d venture to say he saves that smile just for you. Alexis. How’s your friend? She’s gonna be okay, thanks to this guy. My son, the hero. Nah. It was — it was a team effort.

[ Chuckles ] Speaking of which, will you help me check diane’s vitals? Of course. She’s okay? She’s okay. Dex blends in with the clientele at charlie’s, and he has the “unique” ability to carry on a conversation. Again, no offense. Kristina, I don’t — look. M-my concern is — is your safety. I don’t care whether you’re entertained or not. But why can’t dex keep me safe?

[ Chuckles ] Oh! You flexing your big-brother muscles? What? I get that you don’t like him, dante, but just because you’re a cop doesn’t mean — no. Look, I have no opinion on dex one way or the other, but until he’s ruled out as a suspect, you shouldn’t be around him. That is ridiculous! Dex didn’t attack anyone. Tell him. He’s doing his job. What do you want me to tell him?

[ Sighs ] Okay. Well, do it faster. Clear him so he can get back to work. Aye, aye, captain. And is that really why I haven’t seen dex around lately? I mean, since when are you swayed by the pcpd? Kristina, listen, until we know who’s behind these attacks, you are gonna trust whoever is assigned to you. Got it? No. I don’t “got it.”

[ Monitor beeping ] Been kind of an interesting afternoon. Oh. Do tell. Well, your, uh — your buddy nik confronted me about telling ava that his alibi was a lie. Oh, no. What did he say? Oh, just kind of a lot of nonsense, but I guess the main point was that I put you at risk. Well, that doesn’t make any sense, considering we decided to tell her together. I guess he doesn’t see it that way. I’m really sorry he got on your case. He shouldn’t have done that. But I guess in his own misguided way, he was just looking out for me. I’ll take your word for it. You know, at one point, nikolas and I meant a lot to each other. That kind of connection never really goes away. Does it? Your safety is not up for debate. Why would dex hurt ava or diane or kill brando? I never said he did! I’m not an idiot, dad. Even if my parents don’t think I’m living up to my potential. Your mom and I just want to keep you safe and breathing. Maybe you do. Mom had a lot more to say on the subject. You know, I hear that. My mother still tries to tell me how to live my life to this day. Please. It’s not the same with sons. Well, maybe. Definitely not. Well, I bet you my mother could give your mother a run in the opinionated mother department. We — we can make a drinking game out of it.

[ Chuckles ] I have to get back to work. Okay. Do me a favor, will ya? Just do something for me? Mm-hmm. Yep. I’ll take the bruiser with me. Bye. Come on, cal. Let’s go to charlie’S. Do you think, uh… kristina was right about dex? Maybe. We did a search of his place earlier. What did you find? Nothing. Not even dex. You wouldn’t, uh… have anything to share about that, would you?

[ Cellphone rings ] Falconeri. Sonny: You were right

about one thing. I-I-I could let ray keep beating you up. But, you know, I’m just not gonna get the answers that I need, so… dex, this is carver. We haven’t worked together personally, but, uh, he comes highly recommended by the wu family. H-he’s well-known for getting people to talk by any means necessary. Alright. That’s great. I’m on my way. Diane’s out of surgery. Ohh! You know, you really should go home. You don’t have to stay. And thank you. You’re welcome. And I did what exactly? You kept me company, and you kept me from losing my mind. And I’m sure you have better things to do now, like lecture peop– I mean, give lectures and grade papers. But I’m really good. Truly. Josslyn: You’re really gonna turn down the fellowship?

[ Sighs ] I don’t want to turn it down. Then don’T. I-I can’t, if this is how it’s gonna be when my mom and curtis get married. Will he ever stop hovering or making preemptive decisions about my life? Or is this my world now? And if it is, there’s gonna be problems.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Rory. Mm-hmm! And what’s mr. Cutie cop saying? He’s just wondering if I’m available. Oh. Available for what? The new english version finally came in. I find it more elegant than king james, don’t you? I wouldn’t know. That seems to be a theme with you, I-including with the man you just managed to make into an enemy. Book? Um, why do they call him that anyway? What, ’cause he works in the library? Because he once beat a man into a vegetative state with an oxford dictionary. But I’m sure you “had it under control.” You still haven’t answered my question. What do you want from me? All set. Didn’t even need a fitting. Are you sure it’s okay? You shouldn’t have asked nina? Come on. Nina loves you. Of course she would want you to have this. Do you need a bag or shoes? I could have crimson send up some options. No, I have everything I need. Except brando. I miss him so much. I miss everything I thought our life was gonna be. And — and I don’t know what I’m supposed to do now. Okay. Alright. What you do now is you go home and you hang that dress on the back of your closet so it doesn’t get any wrinkles. And then you wash and dry your hair so you don’t feel rushed tomorrow. And do your nighttime beauty regimen because routines are important. And with any luck, tomorrow, you’ll feel like you’re in a bubble and nothing can get to you. But if that bubble breaks and it all comes rushing in… look around, and you will see people that love you. And that includes me. And then you focus on the next minute and the minute after that… and you don’t worry about what happens in an hour or even a week from now. You just take it one minute at a time.

[ Breathing sharply ] And what if I can’t do it? Sasha, you can. I survived it. You can, too. Uh, perfect timing! Breakfast is here! Drew: Thank god! I’m ravenous!

[ Breathing deeply ]

Robert. Hey. Detective. Uh, I got word that diane was out of surgery. She’s recovering in icu. That’s great news. The best. So when can we talk to her? Well, uh, not until she regains consciousness.

[ Chuckles ] That’d be helpful. Is alexis here? Ah, she’s probably off harassing the staff so they’ll let her in to see diane. Yeah. [ Chuckles ] It’s interesting, how all the victims have… one thing in common. You wish it was my fault, don’t you? I wish that I find this guy before he does it again. Can you believe it turns out… we want the same thing? Really?

[ Crunching ] Oh. Sorry. Uh-huh. I talked to one of, uh, aurora’s top media consultants this morning. Really? Yeah. Yeah. Recommended a colleague, a reporter with a local news station that can interview you at the cemetery. Oh, that’s great! Oh, that’s great. I mean, if the public really can see how this project is affecting people and their families, then maybe we can stop this parkway in its tracks. Yeah, that’s — that’s the best case scenario, sure. What? What? What? I can hear hesitation in your voice. What? No, I’m just saying that we’re talking about turning the dial of public opinion, right? And we got to remember that… that dial can turn two ways. Okay, so you think we’re gonna be dealing with some backlash? No, I just — I just want you to be prepared that in order to maximize impact… I need to shame the jacksonville elite. You just got to be willing to get personal. Right? Mm. You got to be vulnerable. Maybe — maybe talk a little bit about how much virginia meant to you. Alright. I can do that. You know? Here. Okay. Good. And you also have to withstand a little, you know, scrutiny. They’re gonna shine a light on your past. We both know that your past wasn’t all sunshine and roses. You think? So you gonna have a problem with that? It’s true — I could be grading papers right now or planning my next lecture. Exactly. But nothing’s more important than supporting a friend. Are we friends? I’d like to think so. Me too. Any update? Just waiting for her to wake up. Uh, this is sonny corinthos. Diane has been representing him and his family. For a long time. Yeah. And — and this is, um, professor chase. Gregory chase. He’s a colleague and a friend. Ah. Nice to meet you. Likewise. I’m gonna go, uh, track down my son. Hm. I’ll be back. Was — was it something I said? I have no idea. I don’t want anything from you. We’re family. We may be related, but we’re not family. If you think coming to my defense is gonna make me overlook everything that you’ve done… look, a fellow child of god was in trouble. I stepped in. I would have done the same for anyone. What a good samaritan you are. I’m — I’m sensing sarcasm. Do you really expect me to believe that you didn’t know that I was in pentonville? I’m sorry. I guess I missed your big entrance. Bull. You orchestrated that whole thing with book so that you could fly to my rescue and I’d owe you. You haven’t changed at all. Oh, but, spencer, I have. Yeah, there’s a comic-book convention out of town. Rory’s into graphic novels. That’s cool. I didn’t know that. So if it’s out of town, would you two stay in a hotel or something? I guess. Are you two there yet? I don’t know. Maybe. Hard to think about from the last time that I took a weekend “getaway.” Oh, yes, well… that weekend getaway will live on in infamy.

[ Sighs ] For all of us. Except for esme, who seems to somehow got scot-free. Well, dante said that there’s still precincts in europe looking for her. But how likely are they actually gonna find her? Especially if she’s not in contact with anyone at home. Not even spencer. Have y’all gone to see him? Cam and I talked about it. I bet he’d really like that. Would you want to come with us? I don’t know. I think it’s better to leave things where they are. Right, but, I mean, you said that you missed the opportunity to speak to him before he was shipped off to pentonville. If you had made it on time, what would you have said to him?

Wow. I think I’m a little offended. Why? You don’t think I can handle a couple questions from a reporter? Okay, so, that’s not at all what I said. When the reporter looks into my background and my connection to jacksonville, a couple things are gonna come up. I’m the grand-niece of the notorious madam ruby anderson… and there was a car accident involving peyton’s daughter, and I was somewhat involved. I don’t think it’s gonna come out that I had sex with peyton’s husband. I mean, I doubt that peyton wants to publicize that the man was sleeping with a 16-year-old and he committed suicide. Yeah, I’m guessing that she would want to exert influence without revisiting the scandal. I don’t get it. I mean. Peyton suffered a terrible tragedy. Where’s her empathy? I mean, how can she just go around steamrolling families that have no means to fight back? I don’t get it. Look. All we got to do… we just got to focus on the message that the parkway is unnecessary. However the opposition tries to discredit you or however the other news outlets try to spin it, we got no control over that. Drew. I’m not afraid. Let ’em come at me. Good. So the answer’s no. You don’t have a problem with the possibility that they’re gonna use your past against you. No. I have a problem with the fact that our food is getting cold because I’m really hungry. Oh. I can fix you a plate. Thank you. Okay. This looks incredible!

[ Laughs ] Yeah. It really does. Hey. How are you? It’s so good to see you. You too. Hi, trina. Hi. Listen. I can’t believe you found brando. Yeah, and you with ava. Yeah. So how are you holding up? I’m okay, I guess. I-I don’t know. The whole thing is so surreal. Yeah. Tell me about it. I just want the pcpd to figure out who’s doing this so we can put this behind us. Yeah, and so the people under suspicion can move on. People like dex. You heard? Not in so many words, but I figured. Well, dante definitely hasn’t ruled him out, and the weirdest part is that I think his suspicions are starting to get to my dad.

[ Finn sighs ] How are you doing? Hey. Yeah, you know, when I’m not worried about my patients, I’m — I’m probably worried about elizabeth. Well, I can’t help you with the former, but as far as elizabeth goes, I think she just needs a little reassurance. What makes you say that? She was asking about reiko earlier. Why? I’m not sure. Maybe after all you two have been through lately, all you’ve supported her through, she’s just feeling a little insecure. I basically begged my dad to reinstate dex as my bodyguard, and he flat out refused. So you think sonny’s concerned because he thinks the police might be right to suspect dex. Feels like it. Hi. Um, are we going to order? My stomach is growling. I’m so hungry. Yeah, give me one sec, and I’ll come take your order. Trina: Thank you. Sonny was so weird when I went to see him about dex. Wait. You went to see sonny? Yes, and now dex is nowhere to be found? I mean, if sonny thinks dex is guilty, dex is in serious trouble. Hold up. What happened to dex being none of your business? Look. I have to go. Do you want me to come with you? No, no. It’s probably better if you stay. Stay. Eat. I’m sorry to bail. Joss! Please be careful. I will.

Okay. I need to get dressed. No one’s making ya. You have been for a run and you’ve taken a shower. I need to start my day. Okay. Um. You want me to — you want me to step out for a bit? No. No, no. I can just go and use the bathroom. Okay. Drew. Thank you. For being here. I… I couldn’t have done it without you. Yeah, you could.

[ Chuckles ] Okay. I could. I’m glad I don’t have to. I will spend the rest of my life atoning for my mistakes. And, yes, I have more days behind me than in front. But the way you’re going, the same could be true for you. Is that a threat? You have nothing to fear from me, spencer. But allow me to give you a — a word of advice. Don’t let your disdain for me cloud your instinct for survival. I’m doing just fine. Thank you.

[ Cyrus groans ] Yeah, you are. And that fact makes me assume you’ve got some protection in here. The word is out about your… powerful relations. That scares some, but not all. Take book, for instance. Nothing to lose and no qualms taking chances? That’s a lethal combination. Lucky for you, I have ways of handling people like that. Baptism?

[ Laughs ] Yeah, joke if you must, but the old testament has many lessons for us. This is a dangerous place. I’ve noticed. And in spite of my past issues with your grandmother, I think we both could agree that you should be protected. And like our creator is for all of us… I am here for you. All you have to do is call. You know, I’m more and more convinced that dex heller isn’t our attacker. Well, let’s look at what we’ve got. First and foremost, all of our victims share a connection with sonny. Coincidence? Doubtful. Next up, we’ve got the clanking metal sound that both josslyn and brando heard at their crime scenes. Could be jewelry. Could be dog tags. Could be something we haven’t even considered yet. This perp is careful. No bloodied clothing or slaughter hook found at the quartermaines’, charlie’s, or brando’s garage. Add in the venom used in the last two attacks, and clearly our killer is honing their technique. Whoever it is has got one nasty modus operandi.

[ Monitor beeping ] I lost reiko a long time ago. I’ve had relationships since then. Why would elizabeth be asking about her in particular? Hey. Sorry for interrupting. Diane’s vitals are improving. She should be awake soon. Okay. Can I help you?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hi. Hey, it’s a veritable art gallery in here. Oh, apparently Ari thought my room. Could you some, uh, what did she say? Brightening? Yeah, she was right. She did a great job, although, Unfortunately, you’re gonna have to take ’em all down soon. Why? Why? Yeah. I just saw Sarah and she told me that you are healing so well.

You’re gonna get outta here today or tomorrow. . That’s so great. Oh, I guess I have been complaining a lot. I told her that I have cabin fever, so she, maybe she took pity on me. Mm-hmm. . Well, either way I will take it. You know, now that Clyde is being transferred back to prison, we can finally put this whole nightmare behind us.

Fruit. Anyone?

Thanks Mike. I’ll, I’ll, I’ll make the travel arrangements. Yeah. Okay. Love you. Let’s see you soon. Sorry, I should have knocked. Oh, no, no, no. Come on in. It’s okay. You know you’re always welcome here. Uh, I could happen over here. Are you going somewhere?

Yeah, I’m going to

you.

I was having a nightmare about the accident.

Did you remember something else, what kind of car it was? I doubt you saw the driver,

or did you?

Like sand through the hour glass. So are the days of lives.

Well, aren’t you gonna congratulate me for what? Being released from jail. Look at me Friberg. I know, I know. It isn’t really a surprise with Clyde being arrested. They couldn’t exactly hold me for his crimes. What are you doing here, Leo? Yeah. Shouldn’t you be out spreading your own special brand of joy?

I’m sure the world has seemed much bloomer without me in it. Is that supposed to be a uniform? Why are you here? Oh, well, I came to say, I came to say thank you and to bring you this delicious arrangement. Look, the point is, and you saved my life. I’m eternally grateful.

Jack I everything right? Uh, yeah. Yeah. He’s, he startled me. This all Well, didn’t mean to sneak up on you. Just be like you do some company. I’m just waiting for some take up for Gwen. How’s she doing? She’s, uh, she’s still a little shackling up, but she’s on the mend. I’m glad to hear it. Well, the cops are still investigating the accident.

Do they have any leaves on the driver?

I can see the car and the headlights and

there was a, a figure behind the wheel and I almost saw their face, but,

but then I lost it.

Well, hopefully that comes into focus soon. I’m glad you’re awake. Why? So you can poke and prod me like every other doctor? No. Although if you are scheduled for some more tests today. Brilliant.

And why are you. I thought it was time you and I talked about how you tried to have me committed

Joey, you just heard mom tell you she’s okay.

I promise. I will tell you if anything changes, I will talk to you.

Stephanie, what are you doing here?

What is it? What’s wrong?

You know, I’m, I’m really not sure how to interpret all this for gratitude. Just accept it and let it lift your spirits that your preternaturally excellent powers of well factory retention are being acknowledged. Okay, in English, please. Oh, don’t be so modest if you hadn’t remembered Smelling Clyde Sad and Girly drugstore co.

Vanilla. Really? I’d still be rotting in prison for a murder. I didn’t come in. Okay. Well, don’t take it personally, believe me. I just wanted to see the right person punished. Mission accomplished sunny kay, and since we’re all on the same side now, would not say that I was hoping I could get my job back at tight.

But you’re joking, right? I did used to work there. Yeah. Before you falsely accuse me of sexual harassment. Did I? So long ago? I have no memory of that. Really? I remember it vividly. Yeah. And even if we did have amnesia and forget what a conniving little creep you are. It’s not up to me. If you want a job at Titan, you’re gonna have to ask my brother Alex.

He’s in charge now. Your brother. You mean the super sexy, very handsome, vaguely familiar. Looks like someone, but I can’t quite put my finger on a guy who hates my guts, tried to beat me up and threatened to kill me. Yeah, that’s the one. Ugh, I should have known. Can’t counter on anyone these days. Well take it easy.

Get well soon. By the way, you two really are an adorable couple. You know that, Especially Sunny. But I have always been partial to brunettes. Especially once with big salt, brown eyes. Bye.

You’re going to rehab? Yeah, I, uh, I relapsed.

Jen, I’m so sorry.

My brother Mike is affiliated with a facility in New York. Um, they’re receiving a room for me. When do you leave later today. I, I can’t help but think of, of everything I’ve put on you since Abby’s death, I mean, all the times I’ve asked you to watch the kids. I leaned on you maybe too much and, and I was selfish and I didn’t even know you needed help.

No. No. How, how, how could you possibly know that I, that I needed it? You lost your wife. You lost the mother of your children. You were already suffering so much.

At least we know who didn’t. Now. Yes. And that, and that means that Abigail has justice.

Wasn’t not enough. It’ll never be enough. But it’s, it’s something, right? Yeah. It’s something.

But I know now that, um, ready to start moving on

actually what.

That’s more than, more than that really. It’s more than, um, helping her find peace.

I saw her,

You saw her,

didn’t even realize that I.

Be strong for myself and for our children. For her.

The police don’t seem to know who hit Gwen so far. That seems odd. Why do you say. Well, didn’t it happen right outside their station? They told me that the cameras on that side of the building weren’t working that night. leave it a Salem PD to foul up a crime on their own doorstep. I heard that they’re having some budget problems.

Them and me both really. Sorry to hear that. Looks like my luck is finally running out the Salem Moon and there’s only so long I can charm Phyllis at the front desk into rolling my bill into the next month. Wow. Past due are. Oh, how can I help by giving me a job?

I wanna talk about that time you broke outta prison. You wanted to get back at Abigail and me. So you attacked her while wearing that. Of my face that way, Abigail would suffer and I would disappear from Salem.

What do you want from me? I want to know, was it all just revenge? I mean, you were in prison, you couldn’t have possibly been delusional enough to think that you would get Sandra back. So all that mattered was ruining my life. And for what? What, What did I ever do to you? What do you want me to say? Yes. I did everything in my power to keep Xander away from you.

But you got everything you wanted in the end, didn’t you? You got the ring on your finger. You got the happily ever after. While I am sat here alone in this bed, Lucky to be alive. So really all I can say is congratulations.

And I am sorry

you’re not sorry. I said I was, didn’t I? Oh, I heard the words, but all I see is bitterness in your. What more do you want from me? Sarah? You won. Okay. And if you need more assurance, I, I assure you, I will stay away from you and Xander until the end of time. Right? You’re damn well better

a nurse will be by later to take you for those.

I’m fine. Are you sure? I seem really upset. I said I’m fine. Right. I forgot I wasn’t following our rules. Alex, Now you don’t have to tell me again, Stephanie. Honestly, you made yourself very clear when you turned me down for a simple lunch. We talk business, nothing personal, right? We’re colleagues, not friends, because you could never be friends with somebody like me, Alex.

But it’s okay. Cuz guess what? You’re in luck. I happen to have the numbers for the quarterly returns here and they’re not great. So you wanna spin something? Spin this.

Why can’t I do the meeting remotely? Did you, Did you say his dogs can’t read my energy over Zoom. Oh. Oh, okay. Yeah. Just tell me what I need to do. Okay. Bye. Okay, so that sounded weird. Yeah, that was infuriating. The star of our project won’t sign unless his golden doodles give me their stamp of approval.

Yeah. You’re joking, right? No, I’m, I’m dead serious and apparently I to do that, I need to be in the, in the same room. You should go. Okay. Not just for the meeting. Wait, wait. What? Maybe you talking about. I’m not, I’m not leaving. While, while you and, and my grandmothers are in the hospital, the doctors are doing a great job of taking care of Kate Marlin.

Okay. And they wouldn’t want you to put your life on hold for them. Okay. Well, what about you? I’ll be okay. All right. And this movie’s not gonna write and direct itself.

Yeah. Have. That’s funny. I’m, I’m, I’m, I’m working on like a couple projects, you know, so if I, if I go out there, I might have to be out there for a while and, and if you’re in sale, I’m like, what, what does that mean for us? Like, are, are we gonna have, are we gonna gonna meet a long distance relationship?

I know that it sounds like I’m losing my mind and I. I don’t know. Maybe, maybe, maybe I am, but I just, it felt so real to me. So you communicated with her? I, yeah. I went to the cemetery and I, I wanted to tell her that, that we’d finally caught her killer and she could, you know, whole, uh, rest in peace and then, Oh, so she was, she was just standing there right in front of me.

I’m sorry if this is as upsetting, Jen. I saw her, I saw her too. I’m swear, like yesterday I thought maybe it, it was the pills, but. She was here. She was right here in this room, and then she came with me. She came with me in the car when I left for the police station.

Not what they done to you.

Yeah, I actually came here to the pop today to beg them for a job pouring beers or flipping burgers, whatever they’ll give me. But you have to agree, I’m much more suited to an executive position, the spectator, right? I mean, you know, I, I know I don’t have any experience working in newspapers, but I did once run a multinational con.

You can’t be that different, can they? It’s all about steering the ship and managing egos no bigger than my own. Of course. Right. That was a joke. I know. I mean, Jack and I, I’m being a bit cheeky, assuming I’m come in as an executive, but maybe you could use me as an assistant editor or somewhere on the I’D sales side of it.

What’d you say? I think Jennifer’s the one who hit G.

Oh, Lady Gwe here. Matt, you’re out to jail. Finally, I came by to thank son for giving me my freedom, and then I overheard these gossipy nurses talking about what happened to you. Is it true? Is what true that someone ran you down like a fluffy squirrel outside the police station? That’s exactly what happened.

It was right after I came to see you. Oh, how terrible and frightening I are you okay? Any broken bones? Torn whatevers, No. You know, broken bones, but I am quite bruised and quite traumatized. Not to mention alone and miserable, but to our live. Of course you will. You are into fatigable. I don’t know what that mean, but it sounds good right here.

I brought you some chocolate covered strawberries. What one earth happened to the other one? I ate it. I had just found out about your accident. I was distraught and you know how I stress eat. So who the hell did this to you? I don’t know. I was leaving the police station, and the next thing I know, I’m staring down at these headlights and, and then I looked up and I, I saw,

Oh my God. What?

Oh my gosh. I remember Now, do you mean you remember who was driving the car? Yeah. Yes. That’s what I mean. It was Jennifer. Jennifer’s the one who was behind the wheel.

It’s not like you’re shipping off the war , right? Ari and I will visit you in la. You can come visit us here.

The whole reason I stayed here in Salem was so that I could follow my dreams of becoming the CEO of Titan. And now you have to follow yours. Okay? And no matter how long these projects do take, it’s not gonna be forever. So I should just wish for a speedy cancellation then. Is this, No, No.

You waited a long time for something like this, and now that it’s here, I think you should make the most out. And when it’s all and done, R and I will be right here waiting for you. Okay, so how does that sound? What do you say? I say thank you. I love you

coffee.

And I wish you were out of this bed and back into ours. Yeah, me too. But, uh, You’re gonna be on your feet again soon. Yeah. And then I can get my company back from my snake of a brother, Alex.

Did somebody say my name?

Oh, Jeffrey, you all right? No, I’m, I’m fine. I’m, I’m fine. I’m just, just, uh, Just like seeing Abi in the car and yeah. I’ve just made so many mistakes. I can’t believe I allowed myself to get addicted again. I, I can’t believe I lied to Jack. I, I, I just feel like I’ve, I’ve lied down so many people that I lost No, no, no, no.

Stop. We haven’t let anyone down. If anything, we’ve let you down. Oh, Jen. No. No. And this is, I, I know that I’ve been struggl. To keep my head above water, but that doesn’t change the fact that I should have been here for you and I wasn’t. But I am now. Abby’s mother, you’ve always felt like a mother to me, and I think Abby would want that for us to be close.

Yeah, she.

And then we were, we are. That’s not gonna change way you’re away or family. I love you and I don’t do anything for you.

You think Jennifer is the one who drove a carent? I, I don’t know for sure. Of course, but I think, I think it’s possible why? I just found out that Jennifer’s been abusing drugs again. Oh, I, I’ve just been. Well, I’m just my own grief. I, I just, I didn’t, I didn’t pick up on it that all. But Jack, I’m so sorry. I, I mean I, I, I didn’t see it.

I just, Why I didn’t see it. I’m sure she covered it well, I mean, and obviously you figured out eventually. No, I didn’t. It was Gwen Gwen’s the one who told me about it. Gwen, Yes. Swe got Jennifer with pills and confronted her. Oh, I see. But wait. That doesn’t explain why you think Jennifer was the one behind the wheel the night when was hit.

Jennifer told me that when she was high last night, she got into the car and she drove to the police station. I think it was exactly at the moment of the accident, but what’s the reason I even know anything happened to Jennifer? For her to be the one who got. Have you asked Janice I that night? No. I, I don’t know how to brush the subject and, and the condition that she was in, I, if she did do it, I don’t, I don’t think that she’d even remember.

I don’t believe this. Jennifer is, is the one who did this to me. I, I, I couldn’t remember before, but now I do. I can see it was her face behind the wheel.

Oh my God. Leo, do you think that she did this on purpose? Of course she did this on purpose. After all the misery you caused her and her family, she had ever reason to wanna get back at you. Why now? Well, didn’t you just tell me in jail that you caught her with pills and she warned you that if you didn’t keep your mouth shut, you’d be sorry that she threatened you?

She did do that. Mm-hmm. ? Yeah. Yeah. So she wasn’t taking any chances, so she mowed you down before you could talk. She really think she would do that though, Honey, She’s a junkie. Of course, she. And now that she has done this to you, I don’t care that she’s a Horton and that everybody worships her angelic little ass.

Now that she has run you over, Gny, you and I are going to expose that woman and it’s gonna be hard to say, but bear with me for the vehicular homicidal pill puffer that she is.

Like you got a full day out of you, Chad. Hey, I’d ask how it’s going, but I think I can figure that out.

Um, I heard they found the person responsible for Abigail’s death, that it was Clyde Weston. Yeah. That must be such a relief. Sorry, I have to No, go ahead.

Joey. I told you, I’d let you know if I heard anything. You don’t have to keep checking in every five minutes I will. Talk to you later. Bye. Everything. Okay?

My mom’s in the hospital. What happened? We don’t know. It’s this mysterious illness. Marlena and Kate have it too. Oh my God, I, I didn’t even know. Are they okay? They seem to be stable. And of course my mom keeps saying that there’s nothing to worry about. Well, it looks like you’re doing plenty of worrying.

You should go and be with her. I was just there and she’s sleeping now, and Alex just handed me all of this work for Titan. Not to mention that I’m completely behind on Paul Prices campaign. Thought sitting out here in the sun might make the work go by a little faster. Well, but I might know a way we could make it go faster.

I could help.

Oh, well speak of the devil. Or should I say snake? Oh, I told you, Sonny. I didn’t steal your job. Is that why you came back? No. To make more excuses, No, I came back here because dad said that I should try and subtle things with you, which I was ready to do until I just walked in on you calling me names.

What do you expect me to do? Give you a. Forget that you tried to screw me over and just move on. I didn’t do anything wrong, Sonny. This is what I was talking about right here. It’s like when we were kids, he would take one of my toys, he would break it, and then, oh, I gave it to him. I was the one who gave it to him.

Oh my God, man. You always do this. You always does this, this. What do I do? Do what? This. You should relate everything that happens to you It to some like childhood trauma that you supposedly suffered when we were kids, because you haven’t changed. Will, could you maybe please try and talk some sense into your thick head please?

Okay. How about I, How about I talk some sense into both of you because look where we are right now. One of you almost died and you’re arguing about business, about meaningless bull. Who cares, right? Your brother’s life is short, so get over yourselves and call a tru.

We are going to expose this woman, aka Jennifer Horton. Uh, who’s we? Who’s we? Who do you think us too? Gwe. You are my best friend and I’m gonna see too, that Jennifer pays for what she did. You think we should find the police? I went, No. I mean, pay ISN in money. What? I have legal bills, you have medical bills.

Neither one of us have a job. You ask me, we’re killing three birds with one black male. I dunno what? What is there to know? What is there to know after the hell you’ve been through this past year? You deserve a win one with dollar signs attached. Or you could just lie here thinking about everything that you’ve lost.

What do you say,

Mrs. Jack, I need to take you to radiology. Okay, we’ll talk later. When do you feel better? Radiology. Dr. Horton ordered a follow up CT scan. Ooh, that sounds very expensive.

Done to you.

It was Clyde. I swear. I’m trying to make him pay anyone who ever hurt you. Anyone who ever even thought about hurting you. I swear,

I promise. I promise you, just as a sweet girl,

they will be sorry they ever hurt my baby.

Stop being so stubborn and make up already, or do I have to take away your TV privileges?

I probably shouldn’t have gotten so offensive. Yeah. And I, I probably shouldn’t have called you up. It’s a nice think. Yeah. Repeatedly. Okay. Keep going.

If I don’t wanna fight with you, somebody, I don’t, I don’t wanna fight either. Nice. Now, onto the apologies.

I’m sorry.

I’m sorry, Tim.

There we go. Yeah, much better. And just so you know, I really did come over here to try and make things better. I was just in a. Pissed off mood. I, I ran into Stephanie and what she just pretty much bit my head off when I asked her how she was doing. God forbid I care about her as a human. If it makes you feel any better.

I don’t think it was about you. What do you mean? Says moms in the hospital. She’s pretty sick.

If Jennifer drove her car into Gwe, As hard as it is, I have to talk to her. I have to, I have to find out exactly what she remembers about last night, and if she didn’t eat

we’ll find a way to deal with it. But until I know for sure Sandra, you, you cannot, Oh, I’m not gonna say anything. I promise.

Thank you for understanding it. Listen, we will. We, we’ll talk about the job thing at another time. I, I gotta get home. Are gonna talk to Jennifer right now? Yeah. I, I can’t wait. I, I, quinn’s chatter, I, I gotta bring it to her, but I take it to her. One Mind. What a friend’s phone.

My God. I was the one driving the car. I, I, it was me.

Wow.

Wait, what’s wrong with Stephanie’s mother? They’re not sure, but both Will’s, grandmothers were sick with it too. Whatever it is. Oh my God. I wish I would’ve known that before I acted like such a jerk. I mean, I would’ve, I would’ve at least offered her a shoulder to cry on. So you wanna help me? Well, if we split the work, then we get it done half the time.

H how would you even know what to do? Well, I have done some PR in my day at Damara. I’m sure I can figure it out. You sure you wanna pitch in for Titan? But I’m unemployed. Kids are in school. I have a lot of time in my hands. I could use a distraction. What’s up to you? Are you kidding? That’s like asking a drowning woman if she’s interested in a life preserver.

Here, you can start with this press release,

baby. What a nice surprise. Did you bring me? Ledge? Oh, actually this is for Gwen. Oh, I, Jack, I ran into him at the pub. Is she in a room? No, she’s getting some tests done at the moment, so I will, uh, I will have a nurse bring it to her when she gets out. Okay, thanks. Can I ask why Jack sent you? Oh, he would’ve brought it himself, but um, he’s just going through something.

Jennifer, I don’t think she’s home. She go stark. What the hell? Well, the door was open. I hope you don’t mind. I let myself in. I, I very much What do you want? I needed to see you. Why? Well, before we go any further, maybe you should get outta your checkbook. It’ll save us some time. Why would I do that? Oh.

Because your addict white got behind the wheel and plowed into my best friend. And if you want me to keep my big mouth shut, you’re going to write me a very large check,

Jennifer.

What brings you by come to finish me off.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Dramatic music ]

Thomas: Sorry, dad. I know this must be hard for you.

Ridge: Hard? It’s unbelievable. My wife calls child services on my son so they can take his little boy away. Brooke wouldn’t do this.

Thomas: Except she did. We both heard the recording, there’s no doubt. It was brooke, dad. Ul

[ Phone pinging ]

[ Door creaks ]

Hope: I just talkus what is this about douglas and C.P.S.?

Steffy: Mom, you know how I feel. I want you and dad to get back together.A@ I do understand where you’re coming from. Brooke doesn’t deserve the consideration you’re giving her.

Taylor: Oh, honey, c’mon. You know, you don’t treat people as bad as they are, you treat them as good as you are.

Steffy: Okay. I understand that you want space. You want some time to breathe. Bill letting us use his house, I think it’s good, it’s not too far. A little distance might be a good thing.

Taylor: Yeah, yeah I think you’re right, because no matter where I go, there I am. So, I better get my head on straight. Because when I get back, I wanna move on completely from ridge.

Steffy: Well, finn understands. Amelia can help out with the kids. All systems go.

Taylor: Aspen, huh?

Steffy: Yeah. Bill’s house couldn’t be more timely. You get to clear your mind, exhaust all your options, and then come to terms with whatever you decide.

Taylor: Okay, that– that sounds like a logical strategy.

Steffy: Then let’s go.

Taylor: You know, I thought I would be moving in a different direction here, you know, towards ridge. That was the wrong way. Ridge is married to brooke. The fact that I love him doesn’t change that. It is way past time for me to move on.

Hope: Why would child protective services show up at eric’s? Do you know?

Brooke: I spoke to ridge briefly. Apparently, they wanted to check on douglas.

Hope: Why?

Brooke: He’s fine, honey, really.

Hope: Well, do you care to enlighten me, then? Because I don’t understand why C.P.S. Was called on thomas.

[ Brooke scoffs ]

Ridge: Why? Why?

Thomas: It feels like there’s only one explanation at this point. It’s like, brooke has always hated me.

Ridge: No, that’s not true, thomas.

Thomas: It is true. I mean, look at what she’s trying to do. She’s trying to take my son away from me. And then for what? For chopping up an apple with a knife?

Ridge: She said she didn’t make the phone call. She told me.

Thomas: And, uh, you really believe that?

Ridge: She wouldn’t lie to me about this. I’m gonna go see her and she’s gotta tell the truth to me, to my face. You didn’t live this strong, this long to get put

Hope: I’m still having a really hard time understanding why C.P.S. Was even called in the first place.

Brooke: I don’t know, but it really worries me.

Hope: And you said that ridge insisted that there was absolutely nothing wrong, nothing going on.

Brooke: Well, somebody felt strongly enough to call in a complaint. And I really hate saying this because thomas is ridge’s son. But, honey, maybe you can use this to get douglas back home to you, where he belongs.

Hope: I am not going to force that issue right now after what they just went through. I mean, mom, come on, can you imagine how awful that must have been, to have those people show up and then question your parenting?

Brooke: Well, then maybe he shouldn’t be wielding knives around his son.

Hope: Oh, wow. Mom. Mom.

Brooke: Honey, think about it. I mean, thomas told me he’s been doing this with this knife for a very long time, and douglas is always around him. So what? What’s gonna happen one day? Douglas is running around like that, and he falls on top of the knife. I mean, god forbid. Kids can be careless. That’s why the parents have to be careful.

Hope: Thomas is.

Brooke: “Thomas is.” Wow, I can’t believe that you are defending him again. This is what worries me. When you spend too much time with thomas, this is what happens. He knows how to manipulate you, hope.

Hope: Mom, I’m not naive. And if I’m defending thomas, then that’s because he deserves it. And as for me, spending all the time at eric’s, that’s where my son is, so that’s where I’m going to be.

Brooke: Well, I’m just going to pose a question here. Do you really think it’s wise to be around thomas that much?

Hope: Hmm. Now there you go, sounding just like liam.

Steffy: You know, instead of leaving town, you could hold your ground and fight for dad.

[ Taylor sighs ]

Taylor: Honey, I shouldn’t be fighting for a married man.

Steffy: Why? Brooke came after him when you were married to him.

Taylor: Okay, and that is a huge difference between brooke and me. I didn’t come back to L.A. To steal her husband.

Steffy: But you also didn’t expect to have this strong connection with dad.

Taylor: Doesn’t matter if he’s married. Come on, steffy. I have to love myself more than the possibility of a future with your father.

Steffy: I get what you’re saying. I really do. But, I just don’t want you to close any doors. Yeah, dad is married to brooke, but you know she’s gonna screw up. She always screws up, and then dad’s gonna realize he belongs with you.

Taylor: Yeah, okay, well, let him do that without wasting my time, all right? Because I don’t want to wait around for that anymore.

Steffy: I’m not asking you to do that. I just want you to be open to the possibility of a future with dad. I just have such a strong feeling about it. You two belong together. Just please, don’t close your heart, mom.

Taylor: I have to close my heart a little bit, because that’s how I protect it. I didn’t expect to fall in love with your father more than I already was. But, I did. Something happened with us, and… I just got– I just got to get away. I got to get away from him, and just figure out where I’m going from here.

Ridge: All I hear is that voice recording, I can’t get out of my head.

Thomas: Sorry, dad. I know this is torturing you. Can’t be that much of a surprise though. I mean, she did say that she would call C.P.S.

Ridge: She said it was– it was a moment of frustration. It was just an offhanded comment.

Thomas: Yeah, well, you heard her. You heard her voice, saying that… that I was a danger to my own son, to people who could actually take my son away from me. You heard her say her name, and then you, you call her out on it and then… she lies straight to you.

Ridge: Not a word to my dad or to steffy. Not now, okay?

Thomas: I won’t say anything. Are you gonna be okay?

Ridge: If she did this, I have to give her a chance to come clean. So, I’m gonna go over and I’m gonna see my wife. Cats really know how to do… less,

[ Phone chimes ]

Hope: Hope logan. Oh, hi, edgar. Yes, it’s so good to hear from you. Absolutely, I am so excited for our collaboration. Well, actually, because, uh, thomas is the lead designer for hope for the future. I think that should be his decision. Mm-hmm.

[ Hope laughs ] I know, all right, I’ll have him reach out. Thank you so much. All right, bye. What?

Brooke: Nothing.

Hope: Hmm, really? Because I know that look, and I think you should just say what you’re thinking.

Brooke: Well, listening to you just now, made me realize how interwoven your life with thomas really is. So, is that a coincidence?

Hope: And what exactly is that supposed to mean?

Brooke: Honey, can’t you see how he’s worked his way into your life? You guys are co-parenting together, and he’s obviously this integral part of your business. And now when you wanna see douglas, it’s a package deal with thomas.

Hope: I’m aware of how our relationship works. Are you suggesting that I’m not?

Brooke: No, of course not.

Hope: Okay. Because when you say it like that, it kind of implies that I’m incapable of taking care of myself or making wise decisions. And I get that it’s motivated by concern, but I wish you would just give me a little more credit than that. That I might have, I don’t know, learned something along the way? Mom, I know who thomas is, the good and the bad. And believe it or not, for a while now, all I have seen is the good side. And it’s actually really refreshing to see douglas and thomas together. I mean, douglas is so happy right now.

Brooke: It’s just that thomas has used douglas in the past in order to manipulate you.

Hope: Okay, but that is not what is happening now. So, I need you to trust me on that, mom. Thomas is doing what he said he would do, which is to become the man worthy of his son’s love. And that is why this is so upsetting to me. What happened with the C.P.S. Thomas is finally on the right track, he did not deserve that.

Brooke: Okay, I understand.

[ Cellphone ping ] Oh, I was hoping that was ridge responding to my text, but…

Hope: Well, I’m sure he’ll be back home soon. And I know you two need some alone time together, so I am, um… I’m going to head to the office to go have a conversation with thomas because I need to make sure that douglas is okay after… everything.

Steffy: The pilot said we should be taking off shortly. Bill texted, I guess the fellow will be there to greet us when we get in aspen.

Taylor: Okay. Well, I’m looking forward to the change of scenery. That will be nice. No ridge reminders.

[ Steffy sighs ] Oh no, the last time I was on a private plane was on the forrester jet, and we were coming up from monaco.

Steffy: Yeah, but we were so happy. Grateful to have finn back.

Taylor: It was such a beautiful day. So much joy for you and your family. We were so worried, on the way there, you know. But then, then a miracle happened.

Steffy: Finn. And now he’s back with his family.

Taylor: Yes, he is. He loves you so much. You picked such a wonderful man.

Steffy: Like mother, like daughter.

Taylor: Oh, boy, here we go.

Steffy: I’m just saying. You had your miracle when you and dad kissed in monaco. A kiss that never would have happened if you two weren’t in love with each other. I know it’s hard, mom. I know it’s– it’s unfair that dad goes home every single night to brooke, and it’s like a dagger in your heart. But know that he loves you, so don’t give up.

Taylor: Put your seatbelt on.

Brooke: Oh, great. Our favorite table? Oh, okay. That’s super. Well, see you then. There you are.

Ridge: Dinner reservations, huh?

Brooke: Yeah, I just thought it would be nice to get your mind off of what happened today. I mean, that was crazy, right?

Ridge: It was crazy, having child services showing up at my dad’s house was unexpected. Disturbing.

Brooke: Yeah, sorry you had to experience that. So, did you learn anything else about the C.P.S. Visit? Hi, I’m jason and I’ve lost 202 pounds on golo.

Taylor: Did you talk to finn?

Steffy: I did, offered to see if he wanted to join us.

[ Taylor sighs ]

Taylor: Okay, that’d be fun.

Steffy: Or maybe it should just be us. So, you get a chance to clear your mind.

Taylor: No, no, no. It’d be great if finn came. Can take the heat off me from my relentless daughter.

Steffy: Am I really that bad?

Taylor: Yes.

Taylor: No, it’s fine if finn comes, it really is. You guys are so wonderful together. I adore the guy.

Steffy: Yeah, you adore finn. You really adore dad. Mom, come on. You can have that miracle. Just keep the door open, that’s all.

Taylor: I don’t wanna keep the door open for ridge anymore. That draft is cold. Besides, something always leads him back to brooke so…

Steffy: Well, you play fair. Brooke doesn’T.

Taylor: Look if– if… she is the love of his life, if that’s who he wants, then… I wish him well.

Brooke: Child protective services doesn’t just show up at your doorstep for no reason.

Ridge: No, somebody called them. I’m trying to figure out who that was.

Brooke: Has thomas crossed somebody lately?

Ridge: What do you mean?

Brooke: I don’t know, like, maybe he rubbed somebody the wrong way and they’re just trying to get back at him.

Ridge: Seems a little extreme. They interrogated douglas.

Brooke: Well, maybe whoever called didn’t know that douglas was gonna be questioned. Maybe they thought they were just gonna go after thomas.

Ridge: Right.

Brooke: Well, I mean, I certainly don’t know who it was. I’m sorry you had to witness that. And I hope that they were gentle with douglas.

Ridge: They were. I got to go. I forgot something at the office.

Brooke: Wait, what? Now? It–

Ridge: Yeah.

Brooke: Oh, ridge.

Ridge: It was you.

Brooke: Please get there as soon as possible. His father, thomas forrester, is unstable. He has a knife. Please, hurry.

Ridge: You lied to me. You lied to my face. It was you. It was you.

Interview with Jacob Anderson, Sam Reid and Bailey Bass

Posted on by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

The actors and producers of "Interview with a Vampire" on AMC/AMC+ (from their Facebook page)

Interview with Jacob Anderson, Sam Reid and Bailey Bass of “Interview with The Vampire” on AMC and AMC+ by Suzanne 9/29/22

This was a fun roundtable with the three stars of this great new vampire show. If you love vampire shows, or the Anne Rice novels, you should love this show. It’s very well done, and these actors are great in it. Jacob plays Louie, and we see the story through his eyes as told to ailing reporter Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian, who’s outstanding as always). Sam Reid plays LeStat, the seductive vamp that turns Louie and becomes his friend, lover, mentor, etc. Bailey plays Claudia, the young woman that joins them. They were very kind and fun to interview.

Suzanne:   Hi, I’m Suzanne Lanoue from TVMEG.com, and I’ve watched the first episode. I didn’t get screeners till this morning, so I only got to watch the first one so far, but I’m really enjoying it. It just grabs you and drags you in. So, congratulations on being renewed for season two already, which is great. Do you know when you’ll be starting to film season two, or have you already started filming it?

JACOB ANDERSON:   We haven’t started. We haven’t started shooting, no.

SAM REID:   Probably, I don’t know if we can say anything. [Laughs]

Suzanne:   Have they told you yet?

JACOB ANDERSON:   They haven’t not told us anything.

Suzanne:  [Chuckles} OK, well, thank you!

Jamie from SCIFI VISION:  Hi, I’m Jamie Ruby from SciFi Vision. Thanks for talking to us today, I really enjoyed the first five episodes that we’ve seen. So, for the three of you, can you kind of talk about how you balanced what you pulled from the book versus what you added with your own spin on it?

SAM REID:   Hello, Jamie, I’ll answer that. No. But I would say that anything for myself and my character, my own spin probably came from my own interpretation of the books and Rolins’ work. So, I wasn’t really trying to put any of my own spin on it. It’s just how I imagined it to be, really.

JACOB ANDERSON:   Yeah. I second that. It’s like, you will always view a character through your own lens to an extent and then it’s just kind of, I mean, I guess with anything, it’s like, do other do the other creative people like that, and do they want to discuss it? But you don’t want to mess with this. Like the combination of Anne Rice’s writing and Rolins’ writing, you don’t really want to touch it, you don’t want to just sort of throw your own stuff in just for the sake of it.

SAM REID:   They’re so dense already the characters that it sort of would be a shame to try and deviate too much of thing.

JACOB ANDERSON:   What could you possibly add?

SAM REID:   Yeah.

BAILEY BASS:   I feel the exact same way. It’s really, yes, we were cast because there’s something special in us that Rolin and the entire team really enjoyed when we were doing our auditions. But other than that, it’s really just doing the research and the book, reading the scripts, doing our own technique, and then just coming and creating in this world.

Jamie:  Okay, great. Thank you so much.

Jamie from STARRY MAG:  This is Jamie Steinberg, with Starry Constellation Magazine. Jacob, this is another deeply tortured soul for you to portray. Is there something about these kinds of characters that really draw you to them? Or is this them finding their way to you? Or is it something you see in them that really resonates with you and makes you want to portray them?

JACOB ANDERSON:   I think it’s a combination of both. We find each other. I think I’m slightly less like Grey Worm than I am like Louis. But yeah, I mean, I think you normally want to be like very boundaried when you talk about things and be like, “Oh, well, I’m so removed from the character, and I’m brilliant at acting and blah blah blah blah blah”. But to be honest, yeah, I feel very, very connected to Louis. It’s the thing that bothered me about how Anne Rice wrote him, and also how Rolin wrote him as well. Yeah, I’m drawn to characters who are searching. And I’d ask him questions, not just about the world, but about their place in it and what they contribute or don’t contribute to it. But yeah, I also I felt like it would be like, narcissistic of me to be like, “I am the only person who can play Louis.” But namely, because there is somebody else that’s done it, as well. Many people.

Jamie:  Well, I think you brings such a unique take on it, though, because of the artistry you have. Both of these characters that you mentioned, have just been wonderfully nuanced, I think through your portrayal. So it might be just a little bit time for you to pat yourself on the back for what you’ve brought to the role on your own.

JACOB ANDERSON:   This one’s for you, Bailey.

QUESTION:   Question for Jacob and Sam, one of the really interesting things about this particular adaptation is the romance that we kind of finally get to see between Louis and Lestat. Can you speak to that a little bit? What does it mean to you to be able to portray that relationship in that way?

SAM REID:   Well, I think AMC has the rights to the entire Vampire Chronicles, and so it’s very important to make sure that relationship is established early on. Particularly as the books progress, it becomes much more clear that they are in a very intense romantic relationship. So, I think it’s it’s great to make sure that we’re serving the story correctly. And it wouldn’t be Anne Rice’s Interview With The Vampire if it wasn’t there. So, yeah.

QUESTION:   I was wondering, and this is kind of specifically for Bailey and Sam, the show doesn’t shy away from race or that being a factor at all for their very long life experience. Was that important to you? And were you afraid of any ignorant backlash, because previously, the characters were paid by white actors?

BAILEY BASS:   I was really excited to play Claudia. It’s really a dream to play such a complex character that’s very loud and unapologetic. I honestly didn’t think twice about anything else. I just knew that Rolin was very intentional about the actors that he wanted to cast in the show, and I’m very fortunate that I was one of them. I just dove into all the research. I read the book. I would cross reference the book and the script and see the quotes that Rolin took from the book and was very intentional about adding them into the script. After doing all the research, I mean, I became Claudia and it was fun to play her.

JACOB ANDERSON:   Yeah, I think something that Rolin’s done, which is – I’m almost loath to call it important, but like it creates a richness is that this isn’t a colorblind casting situation. Louis’ central question is about his humanity and his place in humanity. I think that if you were to cast a black actor or black actors for Louis and Claudia, and to not address that, you’d take a lot away from that question of their humanity. I’m glad that we don’t shy away from it. And in terms of backlash, I just don’t want to give it energy anymore. Like I just – people are going to – I think people need to be seen. Sometimes they’ll say anything to be seen or recognized, and it’s sad, but it’s the internet.

QUESTION:   I would love for you to talk a little bit about what it’s like just being vampires, being able to play vampires when biting people and having these kinds of scenes. What goes into that and how much fun is that to play? How difficult is that to play?

SAM REID:  

It’s very fun. It’s very fun. Yeah, you know, because we’ve got a lot of elements that come into every scene. So, they’re very beautiful, sort of rich dialogue-heavy scenes, but we also have this whole element of the vampire, you know, he kills, so we’ll be pausing for the blood to be put in. We had all these different types of blood that we’d been drinking and tasting, and they made us hibicus flavored blood when we had to drink large amounts of it.

JACOB ANDERSON:  

It did not taste like hibiscus. It tasted like it was like a Sour Patch Kid.

SAM REID:   Yeah.

JACOB ANDERSON:   But in liquid form.

SAM REID:   But there’s a lot of thought and consideration [that had] gone into this. But yeah, it’s so much fun, really. Vampires are, I think, the best type of monster, because they have so much humanity. They’re so articulate. They experience a huge amount. Anne Rice is responsible for our shift in vampires, because she puts the perspective into the eyes of the monster, and you have empathy for them. So, it’s very fun to do these really extreme, horrific things, but also with a level of understanding and empathy and bringing that into the character. So, it’s a fun thing to do.

JACOB ANDERSON:   It’s the best! It’s the best. The best monsters.

Jamie from SCIFI VISION:  So, obviously, you guys do go to some really dark places, though, with your characters. Can you sort of talk about getting into that headspace, and how you sort of, I guess, get back out of it? Is it hard to sort of go there? For all three of you.

BAILEY BASS:   Yeah, it’s hard. We had such long days that it kind of, for me personally, it was hard for me to differ[entiate], like, who’s Claudia and who’s Bailey. So, I kind of had to, like really sit with myself and reflect, but it’s hard. But then also, this is what I love to do, and playing such an extreme character, that’s what makes it fun is that I get to relive and be in these spaces that I would never normally be in if I didn’t get to play Claudia. But the dark, even though it’s dark and everything, I definitely enjoyed it. And I had Sam and Jacob, which they were incredible scene partners, and we all had each other. We made sure that throughout the whole process, our mental health, even though we’re like hysterically crying sometimes that afterwards, our mental health was still good,

SAM REID:   I think to Bailey’s point, like, sometimes the darkest jobs or the darkest sets where the material is the most bleak are the most fun, because, we instinctively know how to just kind of like, help ourselves through that. So, we’ll be making a lot of jokes. You know, it is ridiculous, sometimes what we’re doing, and you have to step back and think [laughs] You know, we’re suspended in the air, covered in blood, so we just kept it light. It was a fun thing to do.

JACOB ANDERSON:   Yeah, I agree. I mean, it’s dense. It’s dense, so you need to focus on the language as well. Like, aside from, yeah, we had a lot of fun, but when you’re doing the scene, you focus on what you’re doing. And I think if you let yourself get dragged into it too much, then hard to to do your job, I think.

Jamie from STARRY MAG:  Bailey, this is such a beautiful costume you have. Talk about when you first saw what you’d be wearing for the series, and if you had any input, and if it takes really putting on that costume to embody your character.

BAILEY BASS:   Costume is one of my favorite things in my job, being able to speak with the costume designer and be able to talk about what she saw when she read the script, because it’s not just me, it’s a big collaboration of an incredible crew that helps make us look good, basically. And to be able to talk to hair, makeup, and costume and get to know what their first ideas were when they read the script, and then being able to collaborate with them and say what I thought, was really, really fun. And the costume designer for this show, Carol, was just so collaborative. I came in and we were talking about posture. That’s a very big thing for Claudia, because in the beginning, she’s like fourteen years old, and she’s excited being a vampire. She would shrug a lot and just walked like, however and had terrible posture. So, the costume designer would think about that when she was making the costumes. And then also I have to look like a little girl. So, she created these beautiful bows along with making sure that the shape of my costumes hid any curves possible. So, when I put them on, I really felt like a little girl. So, when I was doing the scenes where Claudia is struggling, she wants to be a woman, and I’m sitting in this pink dress that it’s not flattering to anything that’s me as Bailey, it was really easy to feel what Claudia would be feeling at that moment.

Suzanne:   I really enjoyed the wedding scene and your dancing, Jacob; that was great. Was that actually you dancing? And did you have to train for that, or did you already know how, and will there be any more singing or dancing in the show?

JACOB ANDERSON:   That was me and Steven Norfleet, who plays Paul, and we had about a month to train, to practice. I don’t know if you’ve ever done tap dancing, but it’s like learning how to walk again, like how to walk for the first time, like to get your brain to coordinate in that way and to like shift the weight of your body is really confusing. And to add to that we did a lot of our lessons on Sikkim (???). And it’s all like, it’s all sound. You like making music with your feet, but with the lag of, of like, you know, doing it online. But you just drill; you just drill it every day. You drill it every day, and just you have to listen. It’s less about like being mechanical about your body and just like listening to the sound. But there is there is more dancing in the show.

Suzanne:   Oh, good.

JACOB ANDERSON:   Yeah. It was in the trailer, right?

SAM REID:   Yeah, the three of us did dancing lessons.

JACOB ANDERSON:   Yeah, we did.

QUESTION:   I’m curious to just have any of you or all of you talk a little bit about what you love most about the dynamic between all three of your characters, either once Claudia comes in, or kind of as that progresses.

JACOB ANDERSON:   I find it, I think from Louis’ point of view, he’s trying to recreate a kind of family dynamic that he is grieving for in his human life. I think it’s probably the thing that he misses most in some ways. It’s like a grounding thing, is his brother and his sister and his mom, maybe to a lesser extent, but maybe not. So, I find the way that it kind of goes for them, and for him, it’s kind of unexpected. I think he wanted, he was hoping that in bringing somebody else into their family, I think he thought that Claudia might be like him. [laughs] So, it’s interesting. I feel like an outcast, but to also be a part of – I mean, I’ll let Bailey talk more about about that part of it, but really, Claudia ends up being sort of forgotten about a little bit, and their dynamic, which is sad.

BAILEY BASS:   I think what’s wonderful though, is that there’s really no protagonist or antagonist. It changes through every scene in every episode, because these characters are so specific and complex, and Rolin Jones, the writer of the show, did an incredible job of explaining in depth why we do what we do. There’s a reason why we kill the people that we do, why we hurt each other. And because of that, the viewer kind of feels bad for the person hurting the other, but then also feels bad for the person being hurt.

QUESTION:   So, obviously, as vampires, your characters live very long lives. Which era would you like to see, be able to play your character in?

JACOB ANDERSON:   80s 80s 80s. I want the pastels. I want the hair. Let’s go, 80s.

SAM REID:   I’d probably do the 1700s. I think Lestat really that is where he’s from, and that’s the era in which he was born into, so I’d quite like to see him in that in that era.

BAILEY BASS:   I just want to get to the 50s. Like, I just want Claudia to get to the 50s so I can wear all those skirts and just explore more hairstyles, because we evolved. Doing the prep work, there wasn’t a lot of hairstyles – we had a horrible of time looking for photos of black girls in that time period with very versatile hair, which we know they existed, just no one took pictures of them. So, to be able to expand that more and show women who have curly hair, that this is what they look like in that time. I’d love to expand that and go into the 40s and 50s.

A sensuous, contemporary adaptation of Rice’s revolutionary gothic novel, Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire follows Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson), Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid) and Claudia’s (Bailey Bass) epic story of love, blood, and the perils of immortality, as told to journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian). The 8-episode second season will be set in Europe with Oscar and Emmy Award-winning producer Mark Johnson (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Halt and Catch Fire, Rectify) and Showrunner Rolin Jones (Perry Mason, Friday Night Lights) executive producing.

“The scope and breadth of this show, and what Mark and Rolin have delivered, is just stupendous. They have rendered the rich and vibrant world of Anne Rice’s Interview in a wonderful way, and we’re incredibly proud.  From the set build, to production design, costumes and more — no detail was overlooked. This stellar cast deliver powerful performances that emotionally connect us to these characters and their humanity,” said Dan McDermott, president of original programming for AMC Networks and AMC Studios. “We look forward to sharing the final product of this extraordinary effort with audiences in just a few short days and are thrilled that this story will continue. This is only the beginning of an entire Universe featuring enthralling stories and characters that capture the spirit of Anne Rice’s amazing work.”

Said Johnson: “The opportunity to revisit the passionate and shocking world of Louis, Lestat and Claudia is irresistible. We will happily walk through the doorway that AMC has so kindly opened for us and deliver a season two that takes full advantage of the wonders bestowed upon us by Anne Rice.”

Said Jones: “Bulgaria. Romania. Paris. (Ah Paris!) San Francisco. New Orleans. Dubai. The writing staff of Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire is honored, humbled, and hungry to add more stamps to our vamps’ passport books. All praises be to our fearless network, we shall endeavor not to screw it up.”

The company will also launch an Interview with the Vampire Podcast, hosted by writer/comedian/vampire-enthusiast Naomi Ekperigin, with the first preview episode available today.  Each week, Ekperigin will be joined by the actors and writers behind the show – unpacking the twists and turns of every episode.  Podcast episodes will feature exclusive behind-the-scenes stories from the set and writers’ room and take a deep dive on the history of the vampire genre with horror experts sharing how the vampire lore has changed and morphed over time – and what has compelled us to follow these terrifying, seductive creatures across centuries. New podcast episodes are available each week wherever you get your podcasts following new episodes of Interview with the Vampire on AMC and AMC+.  The AMC+ Interview with the Vampire Podcast is produced by AMC in conjunction with Pineapple Street Studios.

Ekperigin’s writing credits include BROAD CITY, SEARCH PARTY, MRS. FLETCHER, GREAT NEWS, and DIFFICULT PEOPLE. She has developed for ABC and Comedy Central and is currently developing for Hulu. Ekperigin’s acting credits include Apple’s MYTHIC QUEST, ME TIME, with Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg, SEARCH PARTY and SINGLE PARENTS.

As a comedian, she has appeared on 2 DOPE QUEENS on HBO and LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS. Her half-hour special is on Netflix as part of their series, THE STANDUPS.

AMC Networks acquired the rights to Rice’s iconic works, encompassing 18 titles including The Vampire Chronicles and The Lives Of The Mayfair Witches series, in 2020 with Interview as the first title to be developed and greenlit to series.  The second series, Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches, starring Alexandra Daddario, Jack Huston, Tongayi Chirisa and Harry Hamlin and executive produced by Johnson, Showrunner Esta Spalding (Masters of Sex), Writer Michelle Ashford (Masters of Sex), Director Michael Uppendahl and Jeff Freilich, is set to debut in January.

Nick: Phyllis, tell my boy you forgive him.

Phyllis: [Scoffs] I forgive you.

Mariah: Okay, everybody, who’s ready to dance?

Phyllis: I’m not. I’m not ready to dance.

Mariah: Nick. Nick, come on. I always count on you to — to bust a move.

Nick: No, let me go check on Summer.

Mariah: Okay. [Chuckles]

Jack: The place looks great,

Allie: Doesn’t it? Champagne, anyone?

Diane: The decor is amazing. Everything fits. Except for one thing that’s sticking out like a sore thumb.

Kyle: Mom.

Diane: I’m sorry, but it’s hard not to notice her big, pouty face. It’s like she’s about to throw a tantrum.

***********************************

Mariah: All right, excuse me everybody. Hi guys. Sorry. Sorry. All right. So, most of you know that this was supposed to be a double surprise. First, the vow renewal that Kyle hatched for Summer, and then this party planned by Noah. So, I thought it would be an appropriate time to announce my surprise. Kyle did me a favor, and so I want to return it by appointing myself best person and giving a speech.

[Laughter]

Nick: I did not know we could just appoint ourselves things. If that’s the case, I’ll appoint myself king of the dance floor.

Mariah: Oh, yes. I don’t think anybody would dispute that. And, by the way, I’m just kidding about the best person thing. I’m sure that you would rather have Harrison or Jack. So, this is the speech that I would give as one of Kyle’s best friends. You know, I, for one, am thrilled that Kyle and Summer are renewing their vows. As someone who recently married the love of my life, I know how meaningful it is to have your dearest friends and family bear witness. So, to Kyle, I am so proud of the man, the husband, and the father that you have become. And to Summer [Chuckles] I am truly, truly happy for both of you. I look forward to not only working alongside but raising our families together for years to come. To Summer and Kyle.

Primetime TV Review: So Help Me Todd

TV Review!

“So Help Me Todd” Review on by Eva 10/2/2022

I decided to watch this show because I saw commercials for it. I thought it was a comedy, but CBS calls it a drama. I think the show is an even mix of both comedy and drama. The show is about Todd Wright (Skylar Astin) who lost his detective license when his partner and detective agency framed him forgery and illegal wiretapping.

Joan Wright (Marsha Gay Harden) has been trying to help Todd get back on his feet, but she thinks that he should quit being a private detective. Todd’s mother, Margaret, needs Todd’s help investigating a case for her law firm, and is impressed at how good Todd at his job so, she gets him his detective license back, so he can be the investigator for her law firm while her investigator is on maternity leave.

I enjoyed watching the innovative way Todd solves cases, and the complicated relationships between him and his mother. If you like lawyer shows with some comedy you will enjoy this show.

The show airs on Thursday nights after Ghosts and if you missed the pilot you can watch it on the show’s official website or on Paramount Plus. I give this show 5 out of 5 stars.

Interview with the cast of “Family Law”

Posted on by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

cast of Family Law on The CW

Interview with Victor Garber, Jewel Staite, Zach Smadu, Genelle Williams, Jory Randall and Susin Nielson of “Family Law” on The CW by Suzanne 9/29/22

I really love this cast, but I’m worried that the show’s writing is not as good as it should be. I believe they’ve made Jewel’s character too unlikable. We’ll see, I guess. This is a Canadian show, renewed for a third season, so it must already be popular up there.

It was a very fun panel with a lot of joking around. I really enjoyed it. I love Victor Garber from “Alias,” “The Flash” and “Legends of Tomorrow,” and Jewel Staite from “Firefly” and “Stargate: Atlantis.”

THE CW NETWORK

Family Law

Jewel Staite “Abigail Bianchi,” Victor Garber “Harry Svensson,”

Zach Smadu “’Daniel Svensson,” Genelle Williams, “Lucy Svensson,”

Jory Randall (Executive Producer), Susin Nielsen (Creator/Showrunner)

HOST:  Hello, and welcome to the virtual press panel for the CW’S new drama series, Family Law. We are excited to have Jewel Staite, Victor Garber, Zach Smadu, Genelle Williams, creator and showrunner season, Susin Nielsen and executive producer Jody Randall participating on the panel today. Family Law follows lawyer and recovering alcoholic Abigail Bianchi, struggling to put her career and family back together after hitting rock bottom. As a condition of her probation, Abby is forced to work at her estranged father, Harry’s firm, Svensson & Associates, and practice in family law for the first time, while figuring new relationships with half-brother, Daniel and half-sister, Lucy, whom she’s never met. The result is a dysfunctional family law firm operating to help other families with their own dysfunctions. Premiering Sunday, October 2nd at 8:00 PM, this is Family Law.

HOST:  Please welcome the cast and executive producers of Family Law. And as a reminder to press, if you’d like to ask a question, please click the “raise your hand” button and we will put you in the queue and call on you when it’s your turn. Um, on deck we have Jamie Ruby, and first up, we have Suzanne Lanoue.

SUZANNE:  Hi. Thanks for talking to us today. You guys are great.  I love the show. My question is for Victor and Jewel. Uh, can you tell us about your character’s father-daughter relationship and what it’s been like for you to play that?

VICTOR GARBER:  Well, Jewel can’t talk, so you, do you wanna, do you wanna give them a clue as to why, why I said that?

JEWEL STAITE:  Yeah. I, I have a really bad cold, but I sound worse than I feel.

VICTOR GARBER:  That’s good. Cause you sound terrible.

JEWEL STAITE:  I know. Really bad  [OVERLAPPING] Do you want me to talk, do you want me to talk first? [OVERLAPPING]

VICTOR GARBER:  Uh, hi. Nice of you to all be here. I can’t see you all, but I’m, I’m, I’m very excited that the show’s premiering on The CW. Um, I think it’s a great show that, the, the relationship between, Abigail and Harry is, is fraught, it’s fractured. And this is an attempt on, on both their parts to try to mend it. Um, and it’s, it’s, of course like all relationships, it takes more than you realize. And, and that is the thrust of the first… that is, that that’s the beginning, and it continues throughout the, the season. Uh, and it’s you know, it’s, it’s family law and in, in, in so many different ways. And they’re trying, they’re trying to find common ground, and they’re, they’re just not quite making it.

JEWEL STAITE:  Which is interesting because Abby and Harry are very similar [LAUGHS]. They’re both really stubborn. They both like to win the argument. They both love to argue. So the dynamic is, is fraught, but it’s also really interesting to play because there are so many similarities between the two them that they haven’t noticed yet, of course.

VICTOR GARBER:  They, they don’t notice that for quite some time. [LAUGHS]

SUZANNE:  All right, thank you. And you don’t sound so bad, Jewel.

JEWEL STAITE:  Aw. Thanks. See guys?

JORDY RANDALL:  She’s being polite.

HOST:  Okay. So, on deck we have Terrell Roister, and up now we have Karen Moul.

KAREN:   Hi. thank you so much everybody, for speaking with us today. Jewel, I hate to make you talk, but I have a question about Abby. Uh, as the, as the series opens in that first episode, I think on paper, Abby is, she’s abrasive, she’s in denial about her mistakes. She’s, on paper, she’s maybe a little hard to like, and yet she hits the screen and I’m instantly rooting for her. And I hope you could talk a little bit about what audiences will see in Abby in these early episodes.

JEWEL STAITE:  Um, first of all, that makes me feel so good. Because, initially when I started playing this role, I had this silly, you know, worry that she wouldn’t be likable. And then I realized in order to make her as authentic as possible, I had to throw that out the window. And it didn’t matter if she wasn’t likable or, you know, she just had to be as authentic as possible. Um, but she, she uses all of these coping mechanisms – the abrasiveness, the haughtiness, the overconfidence, her sense of humor to hide all of this hurt and this pain that she just simply doesn’t feel like dealing with. That is not something she’s interested in facing for a really, really long time. So it takes her quite a journey to admit any sort of mistake. And, and she’s only willing to do it, to get her family back and get her children back, really, that’s, that’s her sole priority. And unfortunately, her addiction gets in the way of that priority. Um, but she’s, she’s a person in a lot of pain. And it’s incredibly hard for her to be vulnerable to show them.

KAREN:  Thank you.

JEWEL STAITE:  Thank you.

HOST:  On deck we have Mike Hughes and now we have Terrell Roister.

TERRELL:  Oh, I guess is my turn. Hey guys, how you doing? Hey Terrell, Big Ol’ Bell Media, question for Jewel, Victor, Zach and Genelle. Uh, you know, watching, watching the episode and seeing you guys work as a family is super tense on the show. Very, very uncomfortable at times, cause you know, you guys don’t know each other. Um, what, what was the kind of like, what got you in the mindset to get you to, “Oh yeah, we’re, we’re all a family,” or to feel like a family on set? Or at least say, I guess a broken family, if I wanted to say [LAUGHS]?

JEWEL STAITE:  You wanna go first?

ZACH SMADU:  Yeah, I mean that, that, that is the fun of the, the dynamic between all of us as, as Victor and Jewel has kind of have touched on, the fact that we’re somewhat combative and, and private people who are all kind of forced together, both within the family life and also within the law firm. And how was that to play? I mean, to be honest, that’s, that’s not so easy, cause we actually genuinely really get along. But maybe that’s probably why it’s, it’s, it’s easy to kind of step into that in the acting world, cause we, we trust each other, we love being around each other on set, going to work. And, you know, there’s no egos, there’s no, no, no problems, interpersonal problems, it’s just fun. And so, you know, whatever the scene requires, it kind of, kind of came second nature to us. We were able to find that dynamic between all the siblings and, and with our, our father figure  Harry as well, I think.

JEWEL STAITE:  Yeah. I think, you know, we, we shot this show at the beginning of COVID. So we, we shot for two weeks and then we took this big long break, the whole world took a break. And in that break we had a lot of time to text each other and to really bond in this weird way. So, when we did start filming again in July to finish out the season, we were really, really close. And then, because we had to be in this safety bubble to make sure no one got COVID we, we became even closer. And, and, I don’t know about you guys, but like, I trust you so much that it, it makes the job so much easier. Because I know that whatever I kind of throw at you, you’ll riff on that and throw back at me, and vice versa. So it, it makes these interactions really fun. You know, we love playing combative because, you know, in real life we’re all just like sickeningly in love with each other.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  Not in “real life,” in real life. [LAUGHS]

JORDY RANDALL:  But I what I want to know is how did the sibling relationships on the show play in real life. That’s the question, Jewel [INAUDIBLE]

GENELLE WILLIAMS:   Yeah, because you stole my point, just like a big sister would. She literally said what I was gonna say. So yeah. [LAUGHS]

JEWEL STAITE:   I would say, like Zach is more like the big brother. You know, like Genelle  and I we, we’re, Zach is very good at kind of calming everyone down. (We’re crazy, that’s what she wants…) He’s the voice of voice of reason and he’s like, he’s a calming presence. So when Zach is around you, I, you just automatically feel, like my shoulders drop and, and he’s just got that kind of presence. So I would say if anybody, you know, in the sibling relationship is like the older, sage, more wise sibling, it would be Zach.

ZACH SMADU:  Enough with the sage.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  What do you think of that, Zach?

VICTOR GARBER:  I find him confrontational. And kinda, it’s, it’s difficult some, some days, but I have overcome that. And now we’re, we’re doing, we’re doing much better.

JORDY RANDALL:  Zach, you’re the father figure to Victor it sounds like.

ZACH SMADU:  I guess, it sounds like that. It really plays into the Daniel/Harry story.

VICTOR GARBER:  I will just say, I, I will just say they take care of me, 100%. I am, I am so in, I, I can’t really do anything without their help. And I mean, anything,  order cereal on the, on… Ask Genelle how much money she’s forked out to get me the proper granola. It’s just, I rely on them for everything. And now that I’m home, I think, “Where, Oh, they’re not here.”

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  If they ship to America, I literally thought, “Oh, I have to get Victor some cereal.”  [LAUGHS]

HOST:  We have actually a question for Susin and Jordy. Uh, what was the inspiration in creating the show? How near and dear to you is this project? And how did you get this amazing cast together?

JORDY RANDALL:  Susin, you do have to speak. I told you.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  Uh, yes. Alrighty. Well, um yeah, I, the, the, the idea is very near and dear to me. Um, my own [LAUGHS] my own family background isn’t as dramatic as the show, or these four. But, but certainly the nubbin of the idea came from a lot of my own family history. Um, I didn’t grow up with my dad, I grew up with my mother. I didn’t meet my father until I was a teenager, at which point I also met my half-brother and my half-sister. Now my father only had one subsequent relationship, not two. Um, but I think that I, in a lot of my work, you know, a lot of our, I think we’re, we’re all informed by our families. And so that was where the idea started to percolate. And I love working in the realm of drama and comedy. And so it just felt like the world of Family Law was a perfect place for this very dysfunctional family to be operating, and attempting to help other dysfunctional families, you know, while Abby is also trying to win back her husband and children as well. Um, so that was kind of the inception of the idea. And then in terms of the cast, Victor Garber, when somebody mentioned Victor Garber, I thought, well, yes, that would, that would be amazing. [LAUGHS] That will never happen.  But that would be so amazing. So [LAUGHS]

VICTOR GARBER:  Thank you, Susin. Your check is in the mail.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  Um, and then when we were auditioning Abby, I just remember when, when we saw Jewel, I believe it was her callback audition. And you know, I just tell the story of just getting a jolt of electricity up my spine and just realizing, this is Abby, this, this is her. And it was such an exciting feeling. And then, of course we, and then we got Jewel together with some callbacks for the siblings. And again, it was just so obvious that it was Genelle and that it was Zach. And I was so excited because Zach actually rides a road bike [LAUGHS], so you didn’t have to fudge any of that.

ZACH SMADU:  Yeah, that was one of the questions you asked as we were walking out the rooms. “Do you actually ride a bike?” I’m like, “I do. Got it. I got it.”

JORDY RANDALL:  I think it’s one of those great stories where we look now and like, there’s nobody else who could have played these four parts other than these four people. Like, this is, what Susin visualized in this series is only possible with these four people, so we’re incredibly lucky. And I think when we look back at the development of the show, you ask if we’re passionate about it, I think we first talked about doing the show 10 years ago. I think we first had the idea, we started to develop it. And it’s been a journey and a labor of love. One of those things that you knew was gonna be a show. You knew it was gonna be a great show, but you kind of had to wait for the opportunity to rise, wait for the world to change and for it to open up. And I think we were lucky. We waited and we found that right moment where we got to finally do the show with the right people. So we’ve waited a long time to do this, so we, every day we’re thankful that we’re, we’re here and doing the show.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  Well, and that’s kudos to you, Jordy for sure, that you kept believing in it as well. So, yeah.

JORDY RANDALL:  But we’re right where we need to be now. So you can see the passion, you know, all of you watching these squares here, you can tell these, everyone here loves it.

HOST:  I love it. So on deck, we have Abby Bernstein, and right now we have Mike Hughes.

MIKE HUGHES:  This is for Susin and Jordy, and it kind of follows up on what Susin was saying before. We used to have quite a few shows like this, ones that had some comedy, some drama, and managed to solve a case at the end of each week. It kind of disappeared from American TV, but they’re making a comeback this year, “So Help Me, Todd, Rookie’s Fed and this one are three shows in that format. So, first of all, is Canada always consistent? We had these kind of comedy drama combinations throughout the years. And second of all, what is it that you really like about doing a show that has all of these things together and solves a case?

JORDY RANDALL:  Well, I’ll answer the first part cause I think Susin will be best suited to answer the second part. I think for us, no, this is not a type of show that’s prevalent in Canada more than the United States. I think, as, you know, producers, we looked at this and, and said, this is the kind of show the world needs right now. You know, there’s a lot of darkness, there’s a lot of controversy over the last few years. Like, it felt like the world doesn’t need another dark serial killer show. What they need is something where you care about family and you laugh and you cry a little bit and you solve the case. Like we wanted the audience to feel something, go on a journey where they actually have a pleasant experience and have fun. Um, so no, I think that was a conscious choice that’s turning out to yes, be the trend now, but I think it felt like what the market needed.

MIKE HUGHES:  And Susin, you mentioned…

SUSIN NIELSEN:  You, I mentioned what?

MIKE HUGHES:  That you like both comedy and drama and you like to combine them. So tell us about why you like that.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  Yeah, I, I, you know, it’s funny. I think it’s just always been my sensibility. Um, uh, I also write young adult novels, and they’re always in that vein of, of comedy and drama. Um, for me I don’t know, for me that’s life, right? You laugh, you cry. And I tend, it tends to be my own viewing tastes as well. I love watching shows that can both kind of punch me in the gut emotionally and, and make me laugh. Um, you know, my favorite writers do that as well. Um, I, and I think on, you know, I actually think it’s, it’s really hard to do to, to have that blend of, of, of comedy and drama and know what the right balance is.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  And certainly what’s so wonderful about our cast is that they get both of those avenues so well. So, you know, within the course of a few scenes, um… well, Episode 1, I mean, I’m, I’m feeling so bad for Abby when she’s talking to Nico on the phone and you realize that she’s separated from her children for the first time in the episode. And then she goes to AA and we realize, okay, she’s in AA and then she calls herself a shmalcoholic, and suddenly the tone changes again. And I just, I love playing with that kind of emotional journey.

JORDY RANDALL:  And I think that’s one of, that’s, well that’s, that’s like a Susin Nielsen superpower, honestly. Is like, you can call this a light procedural, but it’s a comedic procedural with heart. Cause every single episode, you’re gonna feel something. And I think that’s the beauty of the show.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  Well, and I do like to think of myself as the, as an optimist. It, sometimes it’s hard. But yeah, I like, you know, I’ll, I’ll be honest, like, I like writing a show that’s very hopeful. And we all have really effed up families, right?  So I think we can also [OVERLAPPING]

VICTOR GARBER:  What do you mean, Susin? What do you mean?

JORDY RANDALL:  I thought we weren’t gonna talk about that.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  And our, and most of our families make us crazy, but they also make us laugh sometimes too, hopefully.

HOST:  Um, on deck we have Rick Bentley, and up now we have Abby Bernstein.

ABBY:  Hi. Thank you all for doing this. Um, for anybody and everybody who’d like to discuss this, was there anything you had to learn in order to either write or play a legal procedural, comedic or dramatic in terms of how lawyers present themselves, or in terms of what the law is, or in terms of how to say the jargon?

ZACH SMADU:  Uh, well, I will, I will say, I know Abby and well… Jewel and myself, continually have to learn and check with each other and check with Susin and the writers going, “Sorry, how do you say that word? And what does that mean again? What does that exactly mean?” Cause I, I can speak for myself, I didn’t know too much about the law in detail, let alone pretending to be a lawyer and, and make that realistic and make that, you know… There’s, there’s, it’s like any other procedural, if it’s a medical or, or a police procedural, there’s certain terms and, and lingo and ways in which that, there’s a turn of phrase that people use that if, if you don’t understand, and if you, if you’re not with what it actually means and how it’s used, it can fall very flat.

ZACH SMADU:  And so I know, at least for myself, it’s been a challenge and something that I really wanted to make sure that I was always on, because, you know, you can, when you see it on television and it doesn’t ring true, well, it affects the show deeply. So, I’ve been studying law, I’m halfway through getting my diploma.

VICTOR GARBER:  Oh, stop it.

JORDY RANDALL:  It isn’t what it’s called.

ZACH SMADU:  It’s a law degree? No, it has, it has a challenge.

VICTOR GARBER:  Mythical law degree.

JEWEL STAITE:  Um, Zach and I have talked a lot about the, the courtroom… bravado that you have to have as a lawyer. So it’s like, it’s like being an actor when you’re on stage, right? So when you’re doing your thing and you’re up there and you’re questioning the witness, what, what does this person do with their body? How do they exude confidence? What’s their walk in the courtroom? Um, and, and we both have our little tricks and things. And [LAUGHS] remember Zach, I was watching him question a witness, remember? And he, and he came out, he like, he like did this really good thing where he sort of like leaned on the witness box, in this like, casual way as he was just sort of tearing this person apart. And after that take, I was like, “I like the lean, buddy. I like the lean.” And he’s like, “Thanks.” And I’m like, “I’m gonna steal that.” And he’s like, “Don’t you dare.”

ZACH SMADU:  Don’t you dare, that’s mine!  [LAUGHS]

JEWEL STAITE:  But you know, each character has to have their way of kind of taking control of the courtroom. So, that was interesting to learn. And, and I think, you know, I can speak for Zach as well as myself in saying that the courtroom days are the hardest. And it takes a lot of prep to learn the dialogue, to make it sound like it’s second nature, and to choreograph your moves. What line are you walking on when you have to hand over a prop, an envelope, a thing to the judge, to the, to the other lawyer, you know, the opposing council? There’s so many things to remember, that it’s literally, it’s like a dance. And, and we work on those for weeks [LAUGHS] before we actually shoot.

ZACH SMADU:  Well, and it’s really important, because there’s so many little details in a single court scene that, you know, there’s one line or there’s one piece of information that the audience needs to understand. And if, you know, you don’t build to that part, and it is a dance, or it’s like a song, right? If you don’t actually hit the melody at the right time and make it clear and make it obvious and, and let that scene sing, then it’s not gonna work. And so it can fall flat.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  Yeah. And I guess I would say from the, you know, from the writing point of view, I too know very little about family law. But I know more now than when I started. Um, and we have wonderful consultants who, who really help us out. And so we’ll often start with, you know, we’ll, we read copious articles and books and we have all sorts of ideas for cases. Some are torn from the headlines, some are…. there’s a beautiful episode in, in Season 1 where some of it takes place in a memory care home, a woman who has early onset Alzheimer’s. And that came from reading an article in, in the New Yorker.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  And we figured out a way to build it into a court case. And so, often what we’ll do is we’ll come up with the idea and we’ll come up with the things that we’d like to have happen, and then we run it by our consultant. [LAUGHS] And, and she’s great because she actually helps us figure out how to make it work within, mostly the realm of the law. We call it TV law. Um, you know, some of our law is maybe a little more Canadian, some of it’s more American. It’s TV law.

ABBY:  Thank you.

HOST:  We have a question actually for Genelle. What similarities are there between you and your character, and what are the differences, and how do you relate to your character?

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  Similarities? Um, I, I actually don’t, I, I get asked this question often, and I could be wrong. Maybe Jewel or Zach or Victor might say something different. Um, but I don’t find myself that similar to Lucy other than her being, you know, very empathetic and caring and loving. I guess that’s a lot of things, huh?

VICTOR GARBER:  Yeah, that’s a lot. You’re, you’re exactly like her.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  I think she’s way smarter than I am, cause she really genuinely is. She’s an incredibly intellectual young woman. Um, I’m smart, but not that smart. Um, I, I thoroughly enjoy playing Lucy for those reasons, I think just because she is very strong. She’s wise beyond her years. Um, and as much as she’s very self-aware of herself, she’s also, like I said, very sympathetic and very loving. And she’ll see, you know, both sides of things. Where I sometimes, especially with Abby and Daniel, where they can be very, by-the-book or extreme one way or the other, she tends to kind of be able to give this middle ground, which is nice. Which I guess again, is similar to me. So, ignore what I said in the beginning about me.

VICTOR GARBER:  Yeah, exactly. She’s exactly like you.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  I’m, I’m more like Lucy than I think.

VICTOR GARBER:  I’m so glad you worked that out. I’m so glad you worked it out.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  I didn’t know!

JEWEL STAITE:  You’re more fun. (Pardon?) You’re fun and silly and like, I don’t know, you’re just like a very warm, kind of radiating, like a, you know, you’re, you’re just like a super friendly kind of person and…

ZACH SMADU:  Yeah, you don’t take yourself too seriously. (More guarded) But yeah, I would say, I would say Lucy is way more guarded.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  Lucy is much more guarded.

ZACH SMADU:  But you have the same superpower that Lucy has. You can see it in the, in the scenes when she’s doing therapy sessions or whatever. You have the same, in real life of being able to instantaneously connect with people. Right? You know, we’re out for dinner and you, you know everybody’s, every, every server, every person, every, the host, all their names and their backstory. Like, we’ve been here for five minutes. Like, how, how do you know? How do you know what? But she just said she, you have the, the exact same [OVERLAPPING]

VICTOR GARBER:  Genelle, Genelle is the personification of joy that’s just… (Oh, guys) Every time she walks in a room, there’s like, “Oh, why is, Oh, I feel, oh, this is… [INAUDIBLE].”

JEWEL STAITE:  That’s true.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  I love you all. Thank you. Thank you. Well, you made me cry.

VICTOR GARBER:  That’s the point, yeah.

ZACH SMADU:  Something that Lucy also does, yes.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  Lucy, Lucy definitely, Lucy can be emotional. I just, the other day, wasn’t I, Susin told the other day, to not be so emotional. I remember this clearly. Lucy, Lucy, sometimes yeah, could be a little emotional. [LAUGHS]

HOST:  Genelle, we need to be friends. Um, so on deck, we have Bruce Miller and up now we have Rick Bentley.

RICK:  Thank you very much. Victor, I have a two part question for you.

VICTOR GARBER:  Oh now, can’t do two parts.

RICK:  Then we’ll do it as A and B.  (Okay) Could you talk a little bit about play,  the, the differences between playing Harry, the father and Harry, the legal eagle? And then on the, the second question is, do you look at yourself as sort of the personification of authority figures? Cause I think going all the way back to Godspell, you have by characters who are, who are in charge, people who lead. And I’m just wondering, are those the roles that attract you or, or do they see you, casting people see you in those roles?

VICTOR GARBER:  You know, I honestly don’t know how casting people see me. But I know when I read something, if it’s something I feel compelled to do. And this, this role, I, I was, this, this came out of the blue, this, this, this script. And I said, Oh, this is really good. Um, and I want to, to do this. And I, you know, I, I think I, I do have a need to… I, I think I’d be a terrible lawyer because I would be on both sides all the time. And I, that’s, that’s, I, I do find that I, it’s hard for me to, you know, I, I know what I think is right and um, but I also have compassion for people who don’t… know what’s right. And I think that’s why it’s a good fit for me. I think this role is… and as a father, that’s, that’s the, the joy of playing this role because it’s so, it’s, it’s always, it’s always changing, you know?

VICTOR GARBER:  And, and Harry’s problem or, or relationship with Abigail is, is so compelling. And it, and it, it’s shifted for those reasons. That he, he, he wants to be paternal, she won’t let him. And then he real and then, and then she’s, she’s so adversarial and he won’t, and he can’t, he can’t not fight. So there as, as, as, as Joel was saying, they are so similar. And that was really one of, that’s the joy of playing this role. It’s so multidimensional. Uh, and it, it’s challenging for me, which is really all I asked for in a role.

VICTOR:  Did I answer the second part? (Yes, sure) Okay. Do you wanna know what I had for breakfast?

ZACH SMADU:  Was it cereal?

VICTOR GARBER:  It was cereal.

HOST:  On deck we have Laura Novak, and up now we have Bruce Miller.

BRUCE:  This is for Victor, too. I, I was just curious, how many lawyers have you played?

VICTOR GARBER:  You know what, you have to read the resume, cause I don’t remember. Not that many. I mean, I know, not that many. Um, I’m sure I have… Oh, I was, oh, in Legally Blonde, I was a really terrible lawyer. (Bad one) Um, that’s the most, I think that’s, I, but I’m sure I’ve played more. But, I really don’t remember. I, I, I sometimes wonder how I’ve gotten this far because I don’t remember how I got here.

BRUCE:  So nothing carries over then from one lawyer to another?

VICTOR GARBER:  Well, of course, I mean, I, I, I mean, on some level, but not consciously. Because, you know, you can only do what the script is giving you to do. You know, and all scripts are different, and some are better than others. The, the, these scripts are better than other scripts I’ve, I’ve… been involved with. And, and so it’s, it’s really, it’s a gift really for an actor. It’s always on the page, always starts on the page. And that’s what, that’s what I always am completely taken with. Um, and I made decisions, for other reasons and I was wrong because the script wasn’t, I knew the script wasn’t right for me, and I shouldn’t, I, I think, oh, well, like, sorry I did that. I’m not, I’m not gonna give you the names of those things.

SUSIN NIELSEN:  Later Victor, over drinks.

VICTOR GARBER:  Yeah. Oh, you know.

HOST:  I wanted to do a quick last call for questions. Um, on deck we have Lou Ann Lee, and up next we have Laura Nokak.

LAURA:  Hi this question is for Jewel. I’d also like to hear from Zach and Genelle. Uh, how did you feel about inheriting half siblings you’ve never met and then having to work with them daily?

JEWEL STAITE:  Well, I mean, that’s a pretty wild concept, to begin with. I cannot imagine having to do something like that, especially in the position that Abby’s in where her tail is between her legs, and she is so ashamed and is, you know, living at her mom’s, and her life is falling apart and she’s gotta strut into that office acting like she already owns the place. And I think deep down she’s probably pretty terrified. Um, so it takes her a long, long time to figure out what her relationships are with these two people. I think Lucy comes on pretty strong, wants to be buddies, wants to be sisters.

JEWEL STAITE:  And Abby, by nature is just not super into that, and doesn’t have very many friends. Abby is not the type of person to have a best friend. Um, and so that’s just completely foreign to her. And Lucy, you know, is often quite affectionate and tries to link arms with her and give her hugs. And it’s like, you know, there’s like one moment where Lucy’s really despondent and sad and at a loss, and Abby sits next to her and doesn’t know what to do. Um, and just sort of like puts like a really awkward, like quick hand on her lap, cause she really is just so clueless.

JEWEL STAITE:  Um, and then with Daniel, you know, I think Abby really respects Daniel when she sees what he can do in the courtroom, she, she thinks he’s a pretty great lawyer. And they’ve got this weird relationship where she slams into his face, but talks really nice about him behind his back. [LAUGHS] And, and it, sort of does this, like this sisterly thing where, you know, she comes to Harry and says, “you gotta give him more credit. He’s really good at this. And the way you treat him is not okay.” You know, and, and essentially stands up for her brother, but Daniel never knows, He never knows about that. And it’s really interesting that Abby’s not willing to give that away.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  I think the beautiful thing is that, it’s not in, in this situation, especially for, for all three of us, it’s not that we didn’t know each other existed. So, yeah, you know, Lucy’s always known that she’s had this sister and she’s always wanted to have a relationship with her. It wasn’t a surprise that she existed. So, I, I think this longing to have her, as Abby said, she comes on strong because all she’s ever wanted was to have this sisterly bond. She’s always been close with Daniel, of course. Daniel and Lucy have had a relationship from the very beginning. But unfortunately with Abby, she hasn’t. So she does try every single tactic to try and get Abby to love her, and she does, in her own sort of messed-up way.

JEWEL STAITE:  That’s true. [INAUDIBLE]

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  Yeah. I mean she, she does, she does love her. She plays hard to get. But I think, based off of your question, it’s, it’s a, it’s a nice thing because it’s something that Lucy has always wanted. And she’s always known that she’s been there. And this is a day that she’s been waiting for. So there isn’t this big surprise. So, to play it was fabulous. I mean, I wanted her to like me even in the, in the casting, in the audition process, I wanted…

JEWEL STAITE:  And I love you.

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  And I don’t whether she, she took to my love very well the very first time I met her. But [LAUGHS] other than that, I mean…

JEWEL STAITE:  She was overly friendly in the audition room, and I was so stressed because, hey, guess what, I was auditioning. And Genelle [OVERLAPPING]

GENELLE WILLIAMS:  I could have wrapped her in my arms, I could’ve.

JEWEL STAITE:  It was so annoying. She was like, “I love your shoes. Where are you from? Have you been in this restaurant?” And I was like, Oh my God, I’m trying to memorize this monologue. Like, I wanna get this job, girl. [OVERLAPPING]

ZACH SMADU:  Well, in, in big contrast to, to Lucy, I think for Daniel it’s quite the opposite. I think Abby showing up is kind of the worst thing, both for his professional world and also the family dynamic that he has. He’s, he’s, it’s literally changes the pecking order in the family, you know, as Genelle and, and Jewel have said that we’ve known about each other, but we’ve never had any interaction. So when Abby shows up, Daniel goes from being, you know, the, the older son in his own mind, to being the middle child, to also being, you know, a partnered lawyer with his stepsister that he doesn’t know, who is quite competent and quite good, despite all the, the shame and the, the backstory that she comes into.

ZACH SMADU:  So it’s really a challenge for him to find where he lands within the family with, within Harry’s eyes. And also how he, Daniel is quite competitive in, in nature. So Abby is, is quite the foil for him constantly. And I think Daniel’s also very protective of the relationship, the, the one relationship he has with, with Lucy. So  even Lucy’s, you know, eyes and arms, you know, reaching out to, to welcome Abby is, is kind of threatening to Daniel. So it provides a lot of, a lot of a lot of conflict for, for him especially. Well, I mean, I think it still does as the seasons have gone on. So it’s, it’s very fun to play.

HOST:  Okay. So last question is with Lou Ann Lee.

LOU ANN:  Yeah. Victor, you’ve played everything from Jesus to the devil. Actors tell us that villains are much easier to play than the good guy, but you are so good at the good guy. What are the secrets of playing that kind of character?

VICTOR GARBER:  I have no secrets. I, I don’t know. I, I all, all I can tell you is that everyone is complex. Everyone has, you know aspects of their personality that they can rely on. And, and some, and they’re lost in, in other situations that they don’t know how to respond. And it’s, honestly, I don’t really think of them as evil or good. I just think of them as people. Do they have a problem? Do they, is there a challenge? Is there, you know, and I use this word “objective.” But it’s, it’s, it’s, it’s really, really dependent on what the writing is, and who you’re acting with.

VICTOR GARBER:  You know, you, I mean, Jewel and I have had scenes where things have come up at where, where we’re having a confrontation or something, where something comes up and sort of… and because we’re both in the moment, it hits us in a completely, an undiscovered way. Cause you can’t plan anything as an actor. I mean, you can plan certain things, of course, but I mean, in terms, if you start planning how you’re going to respond to people, you might as well just stop acting, because that’s just not okay.

VICTOR GARBER:  And, and so really  honestly, it’s about being in the moment. And, you know, it’s, if it’s in the script that you do something that is, that is not okay, you, you have to somehow believe that you’re, it is in your, in your own way. And so really, it’s really acting and, and I’m just so grateful that the three actors, that your other three actors are on this panel, are just, I, I cannot tell you how impressed I am by their level of professionalism, of talent, of support, of empathy, of and humor.

VICTOR GARBER:  We, we, that’s the secret, to me, of why this show is working as well as it is, aside from the incredible writing. It’s, it’s this chemistry, and it’s a magical thing, and it’s indescribable and it doesn’t always happen.

LOU ANN:  Thank you.

HOST:  Perfect way to end the panel. Um, thank you for joining us today. Thank you to everyone for your participation. As a reminder, Family Law premiers Sunday, October 2nd on The CW. I hope everyone has an awesome day.

    Interview with Executive Producer Don Mancini, actors Zackary Arthur, Björgvin Arnarson, Brad Dourif, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Devon Sawa, and Jennifer Tilly of “Chucky” on Syfy by Suzanne 9/15/22

    “Chucky” Season 2: Executive Producer and Cast Share Behind-the-Scenes Insights

    Virtual via Zoom – September 15, 2022 – In a fun TCA panel discussion, executive producer Don Mancini and cast members of the hit USA Network and SYFY series “Chucky” offered a glimpse into the upcoming season. The show, which garnered immense popularity in its first season, will return on October 5 at 9:00 p.m. on both networks. Fans of the film franchise and newcomers alike will be treated to a thrilling continuation of the story, as Chucky seeks revenge on those he holds responsible for foiling his plans in the previous season.

    The panel consisted of Don Mancini, the showrunner and executive producer, along with actors Zackary Arthur, Björgvin Arnarson, Brad Dourif, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Devon Sawa, and Jennifer Tilly. The discussion covered various aspects of the show, including the Catholic background that influenced Mancini’s storytelling, the evolution of Chucky’s character, and the actors’ favorite moments from the series.

    When asked about his Catholic background and its impact on the show, Mancini revealed that he was raised Catholic but attended an Episcopalian school in eighth grade, which exposed him to different aspects of the Catholic Church. This intersection between Chucky and religious themes intrigued him, as the character often subverts authority figures and challenges institutions.

    Mancini also explained how Chucky seamlessly transitioned from the film franchise to the TV series format. He attributed the character’s enduring popularity to Brad Dourif’s unforgettable performance as Chucky and the skill of the puppeteers who bring the doll to life. Furthermore, the serialized narrative storytelling, which the films had already established, allowed the TV series to delve deeper into character development and explore different sub-genres of horror.

    The cast members shared their own experiences and favorite moments from the show. Devon Sawa expressed his excitement about returning for another season and the joy of working with young actors. He particularly enjoyed the video game scene from the previous season. Alyvia Alyn Lind highlighted the scene where Chucky flips them off, as it showcased the characters coming together and created an unforgettable moment. Björgvin Arnarson praised Chucky’s manipulative nature and the surprising twists it brought to the story. Zackary Arthur mentioned the “Snug as a fucking bug in a rug” line and the creepy lullaby scene as his favorites.

    Reflecting on the evolution of Chucky’s character over the years, Brad Dourif acknowledged Don Mancini’s creative vision as the driving force behind it. He commended Mancini’s ability to adapt to changing horror trends and continually challenge the character, making each season an exciting and daunting experience for him.

    As the panel concluded, the cast expressed their gratitude for the opportunity to work on the show and their excitement for future seasons. Despite the challenges and emotions that come with wrapping up each season, the camaraderie among the cast and crew made the experience rewarding.

    With the return of “Chucky” just around the corner, fans can anticipate an exhilarating second season that pushes the boundaries of horror and explores new depths of the beloved character. The series continues to captivate audiences and carve its own path in the horror genre, thanks to the creative genius of Don Mancini and the exceptional performances of the talented cast.

    Update written by Joseph

    Roman checks on Kate in bed. She complains that she’s wide awake and thought coming here instead of the hospital would help. Roman says he has something that might help as he then brings in her son Rex, who greets her with a hug.

    Stephanie goes to the hospital as Steve is finishing a call. Stephanie confronts Steve over not updating her on Kayla. Stephanie questions not hearing from him that Kayla got so sick that she was in the hospital. Steve says he didn’t want to worry her. Stephanie argues that she’s not a child and complains that she had to hear it from Eric, who thought she already knew that not only is Kayla sick but so are Marlena and Kate. Stephanie asks if they are going to make it. Steve responds that right now, they just don’t know.

    John prays in the chapel and talks about whipping the Devil again, but now they are up against another force of darkness in Orpheus. John prays for God to give Kayla, Kate, and Marlena the strength to fight this. Brady enters and tells him that Eric and Belle are in with Marlena now as she sleeps. John mentions sitting up with her all night. John says he wants to help the woman he loves from suffering but there’s not a damn thing he can do except pray as Brady hugs him.

    Stefan goes to Chloe’s room with flowers and gift bags. Chloe questions what he’s doing here and reminds him that she’s with Brady now so he stopped by for no reason. Stefan responds that he came to wish her a happy birthday.

    Dr. Rolf works in his lab until Kristen comes in and startles him. Dr. Rolf tells her that he’s working on perhaps his most important project ever. Kristen says she has a new project for him, so he’s going to have put that one on hold. Dr. Rolf questions what it is. Kristen doesn’t know the technical term but tells Dr. Rolf that she needs him to fry Chloe’s brain.

    Steve apologizes to Stephanie for not telling her but he wanted to wait until they had a better idea as to what they are dealing with. Steve mentions waiting on more test results. Stephanie argues that it’s just like when Marlena and Kayla were kidnapped and asks what his excuse is this time. Stephanie points out that he clearly still doesn’t have the information. Steve informs her that what they do now is that Orpheus is behind this too.

    John tells Brady that he just talked to Roman, who said Kate and Kayla are failing just like Marlena and their fevers are getting worse. John adds that the medication isn’t doing anything and they can’t find a cure unless they find out exactly what Orpheus did to them. John mentions that even the ISA are totally stumped. John complains about having to just sit here and wait.

    Rex tells Kate that he came as soon as he heard. Rex feels Kate should be in the hospital. Kate asks what the point is since there is nothing they can do for her, so she wishes Rex hadn’t come. Rex says it’s too bad because he’s here to watch her get better. Rex encourages that they will figure out what’s making her sick and find a cure and he will be by her side until they do.

    Stefan praises Chloe and gives her flowers for her birthday. Stefan asks if she has any special plans or if anyone is throwing her a party. Chloe says no. Stefan questions if no one else remembered her birthday. Chloe admits that no one did. Stefan points out that only he did.

    Dr. Rolf tells Kristen that he does not fry brains. Kristen complains that Chloe’s is so small that it won’t be too challenging. Dr. Rolf asks Kristen to go because he’s busy. Kristen argues that she can’t let Chloe get away with what happened. Dr. Rolf responds that she doesn’t need him, she needs a lawyer. Kristen tells him about how she represented herself and she was so close to victory, but then suddenly the judge ruled against her. Kristen blames Chloe since she saw Chloe skulking around the court house right before the decision. Kristen doesn’t know what Chloe did but says she definitely pulled something and now she’s lost her daughter. Dr. Rolf wishes he could help her. Kristen tells him that he is going to help her and together, they are going to stop that homewrecking whore once and for all.

    Stefan questions all of the people that Chloe loves forgetting her birthday. Chloe wants to drop the subject and says it’s totally understandable that it was forgotten. Stefan calls her awfully forgiving. Chloe feels there’s nothing to forgive since her father just went through a horrible divorce and breakup while her mother almost married a murderer, so she’s obviously a mess. Stefan says he’s sorry about that. Chloe is glad Nancy found out about Clyde before their wedding, but she can’t believe what he did to Abigail and Sonny and that he tried to kill Chad too. Stefan is glad EJ shot him and saved Chad’s life. Chloe mentions that Clyde survived. Chloe says the point is that her parents have so much going on that they probably don’t know what day it is. Chloe jokes that her little sister has never remembered her birthday so that’s no surprise. Stefan says all of that makes sense and is understandable, but questions what Brady’s excuse is.

    John tells Brady that he’s been so wrapped up with Marlena that he didn’t even ask him about the custody hearing or apologize for losing it on the stand. Brady tells him not to worry about it as the case is closed and he won, so he still has custody of Rachel. John calls that great news and says he’s so glad it went his way. Brady notes that he has Chloe to thank since she went to bat for him with the judge and it made all the difference. John tells him that he and Marlena are so happy that Brady and Chloe are back together again.

    Roman assures that they are going to find a cure and he knows Kate believed that when she checked herself out of the hospital. Kate wishes she still felt that way, but it’s hard to be optimistic when she keeps feeling worse. Kate doesn’t see how they can find a cure when they don’t know what’s wrong. Rex encourages that they will and they are on it. Rex says Roman gave him all the information so he’s gone over all of it. Rex adds that he will confer with other doctors but he’s pretty sure it’s not a natural pathogen. Roman asks if he’s saying this could be man made by Orpheus. Rex says he could be proven wrong, but right now he thinks Orpheus created this in a lab.

    Kristen tells Dr. Rolf that all he has to do is kidnap Chloe, bring her here, and then zap her love for Brady out of her brain and strengthen her love and feelings for Stefan. Dr. Rolf says it’s out of the question. Kristen argues that he did it with Stefan and that she’s simply asking him to make he and Chloe’s feelings reciprocal. Kristen yells at him to get on it and get started now. Dr. Rolf repeats that it’s out of the question.

    Steve and Stephanie go to Kayla’s hospital room. Stephanie hugs Kayla and apologizes for not being there sooner. Kayla says it’s okay as she didn’t want Steve to worry her. Kayla says she wants to go check on Marlena but they tell her that she has to take care of herself too. Steve assures her that Marlena is getting top notch care. Steve decides he will go check with Marlena to make Kayla feel better while Stephanie stays with Kayla.

    Chloe tells Stefan that Brady forgot her birthday because he has so much going on right now too as he’s at the hospital with John because Marlena is very sick. Stefan apologizes as he didn’t know. Chloe adds that Brady also just went through a brutal custody battle with Stefan’s sister that was very stressful for him. Stefan asks if Kristen won. Chloe says she didn’t but the whole fight took a toll on Brady and now Marlena has a horrible disease. Stefan says he will definitely pray for Marlena as she was always kind to him even though he was not kind to her. Stefan admits he regrets locking Marlena up in the DiMera tunnels secret room. Stefan decides that Chloe has made it abundantly clear that she is in love with Brady, so he’s not going to push it and won’t pop in anymore. Stefan apologizes if he made her feel uncomfortable. Chloe is sure it’s not easy coming back after four years. Stefan assures he will get over it eventually. Stefan hopes they can still be friends.

    Dr. Rolf asks Kristen if she forgot they were recently pardoned. Kristen argues that she is the one who got him the pardon. Dr. Rolf says he’s grateful but he does not want to return to prison and he already put his freedom at risk by conditioning Stefan. Kristen argues that no one knows about that and they only know he kept Stefan alive for four years and brought him back with a new heart so he’s in the DiMeras good graces. Dr. Rolf wants to stay that way and play by the rules, so he strongly advises she do the same. Kristen questions sitting back and letting Chloe steal her life. Dr. Rolf worries that if Kristen kidnaps Chloe, they will send her back to prison. Kristen argues that the cops in town are too stupid to catch her. Dr. Rolf points out that she would end up on the run again and would never see Rachel again. Kristen complains that Brady won’t let her see Rachel now and blames Chloe for convincing him to cut her out of the picture. Kristen declares that she won’t stand for that and she will have her family back. Dr. Rolf knows how determined she is but he is equally determined to hold on to his freedom. Dr. Rolf declares that if Kristen wants to kidnap and brainwash Chloe, she’ll have to do it without him.

    Rex asks if Kate thinks Orpheus has access to a lab. Kate doesn’t know why not since he has resources all over the world. Rex feels this would have to be local. Roman points out that Orpheus and Dr. Rolf were pardoned on the same day. Rex questions if he thinks that crazy bastard is involved in this. Roman points out that they teamed up before. Rex says Dr. Rolf is known to engineer things. Rex recalls when Roman was sick in South America. Roman notes that was 25 years ago. Rex says it would be a bizarre coincidence but he wonders if Kate, Marlena, and Kayla could have the exact same illness.

    Kristen pleads with Dr. Rolf to be reasonable. Dr. Rolf feels he’s done enough for her already and begs her to leave him to his work. Kristen comments on everything he does being expensive. Kristen offers an infusion of cash to fuel his grand ambitions. Kristen says if Dr. Rolf helps her with Chloe, she’ll make it worth his while. Dr. Rolf says she’s wasting their time. Kristen tells him to think about what he can do with all that money. Dr. Rolf refuses to make Chloe a subject. Kristen then argues that he’s dishonoring Stefano’s memory by refusing to help her. Dr. Rolf thinks Stefano would respect that he has far more important things to deal with than her love life. Kristen asks like what. Dr. Rolf then informs her that Orpheus broke in and stole a deadly toxin. Kristen argues that Orpheus is back behind bars so it’s not like he can do anything with it. Dr. Rolf responds that she’s wrong because he already has.

    Stephanie can’t believe Orpheus did this to Kayla. Stephanie brings up Steve warning her that he was a serious threat and she just thought he was being overprotective. Kayla starts coughing so Stephanie asks if she should get a nurse. Kayla says a nurse can’t help her but having her there is lifting her spirits, so she is all she needs. Stephanie thinks they need to call Joey and Tripp to let them know what’s going on. Kayla doesn’t want them jumping on a plane. Stephanie says they will as soon as they find out she’s in the hospital and she can’t stop them. Kayla asks Stephanie to put a positive PR spin on this.

    Brady and John come out from the chapel and run in to Steve at the hospital. Steve says he just talked with Dr. Patel, who said there has been no change and all they can do now is treat the symptoms. Steve says they just have to hope the ISA will come through with answers. John wants to go confront Orpheus at the police station but Steve reveals he tried that yesterday and almost killed him. Brady questions what happened. Steve says Orpheus pushed his buttons until he lost it, so if John goes now, the same thing will happen and it won’t help. John complains that they need something to go on. Steve feels someone is going to crack this open soon.

    Roman questions Rex thinking that Kate, Kayla, and Marlena could have the same illness that he had 25 years ago. Rex calls it a hunch but thinks it’s worth looking in to. Roman points out that the circumstances couldn’t be more different since he was undercover with the ISA on another continent. Rex points out that he was exposed to a deadly toxin and he thinks it could be the same. Kate agrees that it makes a strange sort of sense since Orpheus’ vendetta begins with Roman as he targets him for his wife’s death. Roman admits that Orpheus did seem to single him out in the Pub. Rex says this would be poetic justice for Orpheus. Rex wants to compare Roman’s medical records from back then to Kate, Kayla, and Marlena’s. Roman gives Rex his permission. Rex tells Kate that they will figure this out and she will be cured of whatever this is. Rex says goodbye to them and exits for the hospital.

    Stephanie calls Joey and tells him about Kayla. Stephanie assures that if she thought he needed to come, she would have booked his ticket already. Stephanie tells Kayla that Joey wants to talk to her but Kayla says no. Stephanie then claims that one of Kayla’s doctors just walked in and promises to call Joey back, then hangs up. Stephanie tells Kayla that she can’t put them off forever. Kayla knows she hates lying to them. Stephanie questions why Kayla didn’t want to talk to Joey. Kayla says she doesn’t feel well and he would hear it in her voice while she feels she needs to be strong. Stephanie hugs her as they cry.

    Rex goes to the hospital and greets John and Steve. Rex informs them that he has a hunch about what’s going on with Kate, Kayla, and Marlena but he needs to get on a computer to look up old records. Steve is sure Kayla wouldn’t mind him using her office. Rex says he won’t be long because he knows what he’s looking for. John asks if there is anything they can do. Rex tells them to stick around because if he’s correct, he might need their help.

    Dr. Rolf informs Kristen that Orpheus stole this toxin and then used it to make Marlena, Kate, and Kayla very sick. Kristen realizes that’s what John meant when he said Marlena could be dying. Kristen asks if it’s really that bad. Dr. Rolf responds that she should not be surprised since she’s seen this illness before when it almost killed Roman. Kristen questions him saying that the women have the same illness that Roman had 25 years ago. Dr. Rolf confirms that and if anything happens to them, he could be blamed since Orpheus stole the toxin from him. Dr. Rolf declares that now she can understand why he doesn’t have time for her ridiculous obsession with Chloe.

    Stefan asks Chloe if he can still give her his birthday gifts as a friend. Stefan gives her a bottle of champagne and suggests they have a toast. Chloe thinks it’s a little early, so Stefan offers her a mimosa which Chloe admits does sound good. Stefan pours their glasses and toasts to the most extraordinary woman he’s ever met. Brady then walks in to see them having drinks together. Brady questions what the hell is going on here. Stefan says he’d expect Brady to comment on it being amazing that he’s alive. Brady says he’s glad to see that but he’s not glad to see him with his girl having drinks. Chloe clarifies that it’s okay as Stefan knows she and Brady are in a relationship and that they were just establishing that they are just friends. Stefan adds that he just came by to wish his friend a happy birthday. Brady realizes he forgot her birthday. Chloe tells him it’s okay as she doesn’t like making it a big deal. Brady apologizes and promises they will do something fun tonight. Stefan comments that he’d ask Brady to join them in a toast but he’s still not drinking. Brady wants some alone time with his girl so Stefan agrees to get out of his hair. Stefan tells Chloe happy birthday and that he’ll see her sometime soon. Stefan finishes his drink and then exits the room.

    Dr. Rolf tells Kristen that so far, no one knows he was in possession of that toxin, but if it were ever traced back to him then he’d be in a world of trouble. Kristen questions what the hell he was doing with it anyways. Dr. Rolf says he was preserving it for research purposes and never meant to hurt anyone. Kristen points out that he did and if anything happens to Marlena, Rachel would be devastated. Kristen adds that Dr. Rolf saved Roman once when Stefano instructed him to come up with a cure. Dr. Rolf recalls Stefano offering to trade the cure from his freedom from prison. Kristen remembers them bringing John and Hope to his lab. Dr. Rolf says only Stefano’s brilliant mind could conceive the projects he had him working on. Kristen reminds him of how he perfected the cure for Roman and says he cured this disease once before, so she asks if he can do it again.

    Rex shows John and Steve the lab results of Roman’s from 25 years ago which are very similar to Marlena, Kate, and Kayla. Rex admits the symptoms are slightly different but Orpheus infected them with a very serious toxin so he thinks the best way to treat this illness is the same way they treated Roman’s and to pray that it cures them.

    Stefan returns to the DiMera Mansion and tells the portrait of Stefano that he’s making progress and taking it one step at a time. Stefan declares that he will win because whenever he wants something, he goes after it with a vengeance and he wants Chloe Lane, so he will not stop until she’s his.

    Brady questions Stefan just showing up and not even calling. Chloe confirms that he did. Brady is sure Stefan was happy that he wasn’t there and that he forgot her birthday. Chloe assures it’s okay as he has so much going on. Chloe asks how Marlena is doing. Brady says it’s not good as her symptoms are getting worse just like Kate and Kayla. Brady worries about if they don’t find a cure as Chloe hugs him.

    Stephanie talks to Kayla about how she used to take care of her when she was sick, so now she wants to take care of her. Stephanie calls it a rare opportunity to take care of her and says she loves her so much.

    Roman tells Kate that he just got a text from Rex and he’s in to the hospital system. Roman encourages Kate that he has total confidence that Rex can help her. Kate hopes so as she doesn’t know how much longer she can hold on. Roman tells her not to give up as she has to hang on for him and her kids. Roman says he loves her way too much to let her give up.

    Kristen comments on Dr. Rolf looking exhausted. Dr. Rolf responds that he’s been working around the clock. Kristen asks him to tell her what he’s been working on. Dr. Rolf decides that he will instead show her.

    John tells Rex that curing Roman was a bit more complicated than just getting a prescription because he and Hope had to go through the jungle to find the rare orchid that Dr. Rolf used for the serum. Steve declares that they need to get their hands on one of those orchids then.

    Dr. Rolf presents the orchid to Kristen as the key to bringing Marlena, Kate, and Kayla from the brink of death. Dr. Rolf declares that this can save their lives.
