Devon: I mean, if that’s the case, I will — what have you got there? I will call and I’ll raise you.

Amanda: [ Laughs ]

Devon: Yeah.

Amanda: Oh, I got you now.

Devon: Well, how you have me?

Amanda: Mm, because you have a tell. See, when you were bluffing, you smirk and your eyes smolder.

Devon: They smolder?

Amanda: [ Laughing ] Yes.

Devon: Maybe that’s just how I look at you. You ever think about that?

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

Sally: Okay, before you say anything else, let me remind you why this benefits Newman Media. We get eyeballs on the dress, which gives us cred for Newman Media’s fashion platform, and if the dress is as successful as I think that it will be, then we can do a lower-price-point version of it, sell it on our website, and the world will be filled with Victoria Newman-Locke look-alike brides.

Adam: Ah. So, you’re doing all this for the sake of the company. What a team player.

Sally: Yes, I’m glad you recognize that.

Adam: Mm. And you’re taking quite a gamble paying for all of it — with my money.

Sally: This is an investment, not a gamble.

Adam: You’re having a wedding dress designed for someone who has no idea what you’re doing. And I’m assuming she already has a dress, because the wedding is in a few days.

Sally: Okay, but this is a better dress — the perfect dress — for Victoria. And once she sees it, she will fall so in love that she will not want to walk down the aisle in anything else

Nick: Ashland shows up with Victoria, and the two of them demand that she’s a part of the conversation.

Phyllis: Well, she must have gone out of her mind, hearing something so epic, right?

Nick: You know, she didn’t say much about that. But later on, when we were talking alone, she just went off on me.

Phyllis: What?

Nick: Yeah, she said i betrayed her confidence. [Breathes deeply] Made it very clear to me that she’s done with me.

Phyllis: With you? Nick!

Nick: It’s what I get for doing the right thing

********†***†

Phyllis: Siblings have squabbles, right? I mean, she’s just mad — Victoria. She’s not gonna cut you out of her life.

Nick: Well, she cut me off the guest list.

Phyllis: What?

Nick: Yep. I’ve been officially disinvited from the wedding.

Phyllis: That’s ridicul– she’s just mad. She’s mad, you know? And she is shooting the well-intentioned messenger. That’s all. I mean, she’s shocked. I’m shocked. I don’t even like this guy, and I’m shocked. I mean, he really took the identity of a dying man? Really?

Sharon: I know what you’re thinking — “I asked for some time and space away from everyone.”

Mariah: You nailed it.

Sharon: And I gave that to you.

Mariah: Uh, yeah, you almost lasted, mm, 24 hours?

Sharon: Well, I think i lasted more than a day. Anyway, I lasted longer than i thought I would. You can give me some
credit for that.

Mariah: [ Scoffs ]

Sharon: Anyway, it’s good to see you making jokes again.

Mariah: Who says I’m making jokes?

Sharon: Well, you seem better. That’s a relief. But how about some genuine answers?

Mariah: Mnh, uh-oh.

Sharon: How are you really feeling?

*****†**********

Amanda: You still haven’t told Faith where she’s going?

Moses: It’s all a mystery. That’s part of the fun.

Devon: Exactly.

Amanda: Oh, so you know a little something about this date, huh?

Moses: Yeah, but I swore Devon to secrecy, so he’s not gonna blow it, right?

Devon: Oh, like you almost just did by forgetting your wallet? Like that?

Amanda: You are very trusting. I mean, you could be expecting a glamorous night on the town and end up at a
paintball range.

Faith: Paintball?

Moses: No. Next time. But, uh, we’re gonna get out of here before Devon ruins the surprise.

Jack: You got to stop this. Listen to yourself. Listen to the leaps of logic you’re willing to make to justify what you’re doing.

Billy: I’m protecting the mother of my children, Jack.

Jack: I know you keep saying that. Victoria is no longer your responsibility. And let’s be honest. This is not protecting Victoria or protecting your kids or maybe even about Ashland. This is about you trying to stop Victoria from moving on.

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

Billy: You’re not the first person to claim that I’m having a hard time getting over Victoria, but like them, Jack, you would be wrong ’cause I am happy with Lily, very, very happy. My life has taken a different direction, and I am great with that.

Jack: Historically, that would be about the time that you start to sabotage yourself.

Billy: There you go.

Jack: You’re my brother, and I love you, Billy, but you know that’s the truth.

Billy: It’s not what this is about, okay? This is about protecting Victoria and my children. That’s it. Their welfare. Nothing more. And given the amount of lies and half-truths that Ashland has told us in the short amount of time that he has been in our lives, I would be remiss not to look into him.

Jack: This is your ego talking. Victoria is perfectly capable of looking after her own life without any of your help.

Billy: Okay, you mentioned Nick as having the same thoughts. Does that make him an egomaniac, as well!

Jack: Hey, I’ve just been thinking of you. I read a very complimentary article about you and Newman Media.

Adam: Well, I have to admit, it is nice to get a little good press. It’s a welcome change of pace.

Jack: I’m sure it is. Well, the article said the expansion’s going very well, and — how did they put it? — It is a business
renaissance for Adam Newman.

Adam: Just a fancy way of saying I’ve gotten a do-over.

Jack: Well, fancy or not, it sounds like you’re turning things around, and I couldn’t be happier for you

***********

Phyllis: Well, okay. Room 600. Um, excuse me. I’m sorry, when are you gonna get this? You are not welcome at the
Grand Phoenix ever.

Sally: Well, when are you gonna get that I am not going anywhere. I’m a part of this town, so get used to it.

Victor: Are you just gonna stand there and stare at me or there’s something you want to say?

Billy: Just surprised to see you here again.

Victor: Uh-huh.

Billy: Or maybe you haven’t left. Either way, it seems weird that you would spend this much time in Phyllis’ establishment. You got a meeting by chance?

Victor: Yes, I do have a meeting. Thank you for asking.

Billy: Jesse Gaines. Does that name ring a bell?

Victor: It sounds like the name of your bookie

*********

Ashland: Victor, forgive me for running late.

Victor: That’s alright. Table in the restaurant is waiting.

Billy: I hope it’s a table for three. Got a few questions for the both of you.

Victor: [ Laughs ] You’re a pest, Billy boy.

Abby: I couldn’t stand the thought that our first real conversation would be after the “I dos.”

Ashland: [ Chuckles ] Well, to say that you have been busy is an understatement. Not only are you the owner of my favorite restaurant in town, but I have also heard that there’s a new member of the family.

Abby: Yeah, Dominic.

Ashland: That’s a strong name.

Abby: Dominic Phillip Newman Abbott Chancellor.

Ashland: Oh, my. That moniker is longer than he is.

Abby: Oh, he’ll grow into it eventually.

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

Abby: I can’t believe that Victoria ever spoke to you again after that first negotiation. I mean, you chose Victor and Adam over her.

Ashland: Well, as I told you, I think she was a little more than exasperated. I think she still might be.

Nick: I’m just glad that, you know, we’re okay.

Phyllis: Yeah. We are okay. We’re better than okay.

Nick: Put the whole Jack thing aside.

Phyllis: Yeah, I think we proved that last night. Um, by the way, you really outdid yourself, and that’s saying a lot.

Nick: You’re welcome.

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

Billy: What about advertising? Newspapers, magazines, maybe tv stations by chance?

Gaines: As a matter of fact, he did. Couple of news stations.

Billy: Oh, wow. There you go. Very cool.

Gaines: You know, it is amazing that you would remember my father’s name after so many years. You must have been very young. He stopped working a long time ago.

Billy: Well, it’s a steel trap. Information gets in, doesn’t get out. It’s kind of a cruse. So what brings you into town

Traci: Oh, Jack, I want to believe that daddy felt that their love was so strong that it could endure anything. That if the circumstances had been different, they would have made it work out. That she would have stayed here and she would have found her happiness here. That their love was just that strong.

Jack: Yes, yes, yes. We all want to believe that, yes.

Traci: I think you do believe that, Jack. And that’s why you never got bitter or jaded after all you’ve had to endure.

Jack: Always seeing a happy ending even when there isn’t one in sight.

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

Jack: You were right about one thing. You had enormous potential.

Sally: Oh. Well, thank you.

Jack: I recognize that part of you wishes you could do it without all the dirty tricks. You’re talented. You just don’t trust it. I know you have a moral compass. You just forget to look at it. We could never have had anything because you didn’t know who you were or who you wanted to be.

Sally: I actually know exactly who Sally Spectra is — the good and the bad. You just couldn’t accept it. And let’s be honest here, did i really do anything worse than Phyllis has done over the years? I mean, I never ran anybody over with my car, so why should she get a free pass?

Both: Because she’s Phyllis.

Amanda: That was quite a welcome-to-the-neighborhood.

Devon: I am a welcoming committee of one, you know. The celebration doesn’t have to stop. We can, uh, have some more of the wine that I got for us and put on this very rare Miles Davis album that I think you’re really gonna love.

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

Phyllis: Yeah. Okay. I’ll get on that. Thank you. [ Sighs ] Oh! To what do I owe this divine honor?

Victoria: I’m here for the spa, not you.

Phyllis: Well, since i hand-picked every single treatment on the list, I’m gonna take that as a compliment.

Victoria: Why am I not surprised?

Chloe: Well, that is the sweet and wonderful thing about kids. They bring out a side of you you never knew existed.

Sally: Yeah. I mean, I always saw myself as, like, single-mindedly career-focused, with a hot love life on the side, of course. I just wonder how working parents juggle having a career and kids the way that you do.

Chloe: Yeah. Trust me. It’s, um — [ Laughs ] It’s not easy.

Sally: Yeah. Well, I always admired people who do it all, but, I mean, single parenting? Wow…like, when I realized all that Adam has to handle on his own…

Chloe: Okay, well, Connor does still have a mother — Chelsea — who’s my best friend and who is also going to be our co-worker when she decides to come home, so…

Sally: Yeah. Nope. I have heard your message loud and clear — stay away from Adam. But, you know, seeing him as a good dad made him ever hotter.

Chloe: [ Coughs ]

Sally: [ Chuckles ] I’m just kidding! I gotcha.

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

Adam: Look, Rey, it has been rough on Connor hearing that Chelsea and I are splitting up. I wanted Sharon to talk to
him, maybe give him some tools to help him cope. Really hope that’s not an excuse for you to get pissed off.

Rey: Not at all. As I told you before, Connor and I became good buddies on our road trip. I care about him, and I’m glad you finally decided to be honest with him. The boy deserves to know the truth. And Sharon will always help where she can.

Adam: Am I hearing this correctly? It kind of sounds like we’ve found some common ground here. Could it be that we can actually co-exist?

Victor: Well, now, I guess there is no such thing as too many gifts. Such a joyous occasion.

Nikki: Well, I’m glad to hear you say that because there’s one more thing I need to do for me.

Victor: What?

Nikki: Well, I ordered these baby-themed cupcakes as a surprise for Abby. Do you think you’d be able to pick them up and then meet me at the church?

Victor: Pick up cupcakes, where? Where are they?

Nikki: At society. Their pastry chef has been sworn to secrecy.

Victor: You’re asking me, a busy business tycoon, to drive over to society to pick up cupcakes?

Nikki: Would you?

Victor: If you’re sweet with me, I will. I’ll do it for you and for Abby.

Nikki: Well, thank you. I’m always sweet. Anyway, I just thought it would be something festive to add to the day.

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

Ashley: And I’d better get out of here if I’m gonna get over to the chapel and check on everything before the ceremony.

Abby: Mom, I can do that.

Nina: No, there’s no messing with the plan.

Ashley: Sweetie, that’s right, I got it handled, okay? But I want you to do me two favors before I leave — take a deep breath. [Breathes deeply] And then get rid of your phone.

Abby: My security blanket? No way.

Ashley: Listen, we have all played our parts. It’s gonna go perfectly, so please focus on your beautiful son and this wonderful day.

Nina: Listen to your mother. It’s time to relax and enjoy.

Abby: Well, thank you both so much. I don’t know what I would’ve done without you.

Nina: Well, everything would still be perfect, but you’d be a whole lot more frazzled.

Ashley: That sounds about right.

Lily :Well, I have a meeting in the conference room, so you can use my office — if you both can be civil.

Billy: Oh, I will if he will.

Lily: And just remember, please, at the end of the day, what really matters here is that you both care about Victoria and want what’s best for her.

Ashland: That’s a smart woman. You should listen to her. Victoria’s best interests should come first. And that’s why I told my story earlier, because I wanted to take the pressure off of Victoria, to let those that are most important and that matter most to her, let them know that there’s no reason for them to worry about my past. I told the Newmans everything there is to know. And you, as the father of her children, you were included, as a courtesy. Now, I would think you might want to reciprocate that courtesy and back off. Stop digging where you have no business digging.

Billy: I’m aware that you don’t hear this word very often — no. It’s not gonna happen. I’m not gonna do that because i am certain there’s a whole hell of a lot more to learn about you.

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

Victor: How are you?

Nate: Always a pleasure.

Victor: Yeah. [Cellphone vibrates] You know, there ought to be a special place in hell for people who cancel appointments at the last minute. Damn it.

Nate: Oh, wow, would’ve been nice if you were informed before you came here.

Victor: Yeah. Well, it’s not a total waste of time. I ran into you, so there’s something I’d like to discuss with you. Please have a seat.
