Victoria: What’s up?
Billy: Just grabbing a coffee on my way to work. Picked up the kids at camp and dropped them off at home.
Victoria: Did they have fun today?
Billy: I would say they had fun. Johnny learned how to throw a curve ball, and Katie created a masterpiece for the fridge.
Billy: Thought you could use a treat this afternoon.
Lily: Ah. You trying to butter me up or something?
Billy: Actually, I did run into Victoria at Crimson Lights. We had an interesting chat.
Lily: Oh, okay. That could be code for a lot of things.
Billy: Yeah. Well, you know, we were standing there, and — I’m sorry. Do you want me to skip the gory details?
Lily: No! No. I want to hear everything. I love hearing you ruminate about your ex.
Billy: Okay, I’m gonna shut up now.

Nick: So, it was a great concert. We raised a lot of money for New Hope. Really thought I was gonna earn some cool dad points with Faith, you know? But then Moses shows up with some VIP stuff from Devon, and i went right back from being the cool dad to just chaperone. Anyway, I’m sure you’ve heard it all from Faith.
Sharon: Yeah, her version was a little more pro-Moses, but she had a wonderful time
Nikki: Oh, nonsense. Now, I’ve been pouring lemonade and tea for Faith her entire life. At first, it was imaginary, though, for Miss Patsy and Faith, but now it’s actually real liquid.
Moses: Wait, who’s Miss Patsy?
Faith: Never mind. That’s not important.
Moses: No, no, now I’m curious.
Nikki: She was Faith’s first friend — a doll.
Faith: This was a long time ago, obviously.
Moses: No, actually, that sounds a lot like my favorite toy — Reggie Beggie. He was, like, a stuffed dinosaur with a football helmet.
Faith: Yeah, I don’t know if the helmet’s historically accurate.
Moses: No, no, it’s not, but he was a good friend to me growing up. He helped me through a lot of tough times.
Nikki: Well, that sounds like Miss Patsy. Faith took her everywhere, and she would always ask me to put six sugar cubes in Miss Patsy’s tea because Faith would say, “Grandma, she’s so sweet.”

Billy: Geez, are you kidding me? Well, our reporters are already all over it, questioning sources and staying on top of the details.
Lily: [ Chuckles ] You love this, don’t you?
Billy: It’s the best part of the journalism game — tracking down all the facts until it all comes together.
Lily: Well, I got to say, your instincts about Tara were spot on.
Billy: Well, it was clear she was trying way too hard to ingratiate herself into the Abbott family. And this is definitely one of those times that Phyllis’ meddling paid off. Once we were able to compare notes, she was off to the races, which led to Tara being arrested for embezzling money from her own company.
Lily: Yeah, I mean, that was bad, but what’s worse is using her own child to blackmail Summer into leaving town.
Billy: Well, this is definitely gonna drive a lot of traffic to the ChanceComm news site. Looks like the Lockes are the gift that keeps on giving.
Phyllis: You know, I knew that Sally was nothing but heartache for Jack — that’s why I was determined to keep her away from him.
Amanda: Well, he is really lucky to have a friend like you.
Phyllis: Yeah. You know, a lot of people are lucky to know me.
Amanda: [ Chuckles ]
Phyllis: I mean, what did I do? I reunited my daughter with the love of her life. I uncovered an actual crime — Tara’s embezzlement. And I stopped Lauren from going into business with a crook.
Amanda: Okay, as an attorney, I would advise that you never speak of how you managed to do that. As your friend, I think it was kick-ass.
Phyllis: You’ve been kicking ass, by the way — I mean, legally speaking.
Amanda: Mm, yeah, I have been. I want to make sure that I get justice for my father and Hilary. You know, in some ways, my mother. She was Sutton’s first victim. He crushed her spirit decades ago, and he made sure that everything in her life was about him and protecting his image.

Jack: I suspect if I spent the rest of the day coming up with reasons you should feel better about this, I wouldn’t put a dent in it. So, let me ask you something — how does Nick feel about this? Is he as upset as you are, or is he already seeing a silver lining? Judging from that reaction, the two of you are not seeing eye to eye.
Phyllis: Mnh-mnh, we are not.
Jack: What does Nick say?
Phyllis: I’m not gonna tell you what he says, ’cause I have a feeling you’re gonna agree with him, and then you two will be right, and then I’ll be wrong. And I will not accept that.

Jack: Well —
Phyllis: I’ll answer that. Yes. A big mistake, gigantic one.
Adam: Any particular reason why?
Jack: It’s —
Phyllis: I’ll answer that. Yes. Because she and Tara Locke were partners in crime.
Adam: You don’t say.
Phyllis: That one is selfish, self-centered, and devious. While Tara Locke is rightfully facing charges, this one over here lands on her feet.
Adam: So, you’re saying you and Sally have a lot in common. Is that why you don’t like her?

Nikki: I’m gonna need a moment to sit with that. I mean, I understand that. It’s bound to happen one of these days. It’s just very strange to think of you as a grandfather.
Nick: Yeah. And that would make you —
Nikki: No, no, no. Not talking about that.
Nick: [ Laughs ] Okay.

Phyllis: Sally Spectra — oh, trust me, you don’t want to get involved with that one.

Phyllis: Hey, is she still denying it?
Lauren: She is.
Sally: Please don’t listen to Phyllis’s nonsense.
