Billy: Good morning.

Lily: Good morning.

Billy: You know what they say about the early bird.

Lily: Um… she rules the world?

Billy: No. She misses her morning mocha and croissant in bed.

Lily: Oh, is that how the saying goes?

Billy: Historically.

Lily: Well, I didn’t want to wake you. Thank you.

Billy: Oh, thank you very much for that. Getting an early start on the day?

Adam: Connor’s taken a little detour from sports lately.

Victor: Oh, yeah? Into what?

Adam: Coding. He’s, uh, fascinated by it.

Victor: Coding? What the hell is coding? Whoa. Huh. I’ll be damned. You know, we miss that boy. Both Nikki and I do. Whenever he’s here, he brings a smile to our faces. I’m sure that kid will be very, very successful.

Adam: Unlike his dad. Serial failure.

Victor: I didn’t say anything like that.

Adam: No, but it was implied.

[Clears throat] You rarely say what you actually mean.

Victor: What do you mean, what’s implied? That’s pure nonsense you’re talking about. You trying to goad me into something or what? You trying to piss me off? Not gonna work tonight. I’m feeling good.

************************************************””””””””””””**

Adam: You’re gonna make me pull it out of you bit by bit. Okay.

[Glass thuds] Well, the latest threat to the Newmans was Ashland Locke.

Victor: Well, that S.O.B. Is thankfully no longer with us.

Adam: Mm, that eliminated some of the danger, but his death had its own turmoil. So, what changed?

Victor: All conversations about Ashland Locke are past tense, okay? Guy’s dead as a doornail. And any investigations into the circumstances of his death are now closed.

Adam: What?

Victor: Yeah. They’re closed. Chance was here earlier. He said he was no longer going to investigate the circumstances of Ashland Locke’s death, so Victoria can now pick up the pieces of her life. So can we all.

Diane: Why do you suppose Harrison sleeps like that?

Jack: All splayed out like he’s in the middle of a jumping jack? I don’t know, maybe to keep cool in the August heat?

Diane: That could be it. Whatever the reason, it’s adorable. It’s like he jumped into bed in that position and then just fell immediately asleep.

[Sighing] Ah. Thank you for letting me peek in on him.

Jack: Anytime.

Diane: You know, this grandparenting thing is never going to get old, is it?

Jack: I highly doubt it. All this joy he brings us seems pretty limitless.

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

Billy: What is going on here? Is this a therapy session I didn’t know I was having.

Chelsea: [Chuckles] I’m sorry if I’m overstepping. I don’t know what our boundaries are yet. I figure, since we’re working together, everything’s fair game.

Billy: Is that so?

Chelsea: Mm-hmm. It would be great fodder for an episode.

Billy: Okay. Look, uh, I’m not upset that you’re asking me about Victoria. I’m really not. I was just a little bit surprised. But I think you’re right. The more open and honest we are, the more authentic the podcast is.

Chance tells Kevin that he decided to close the case and say that Ashland died in a car crash because he didn’t have enough evidence to prove Victor moved the body after Ashland was punched by Nick and died. Kevin tells Chance that he did have the evidence and if the truth comes out they could accuse them both of coveting up a crime. Chance tells Kevin that won’t happen because everything is in the police report but some details are redacted so nobody will ever find out the second theory of Ashland’s death. Adam is listening to Chance and Kevin’s conversation and when Chance leaves Adam tells Kevin that if the truth comes out Chance is going to hang him out to dry unless he gets in front of the situation now.

Billy: You’re making it sound like I don’t like my job, and that couldn’t be further from the truth. Okay? And these podcasts are initiatives with this company that we are building. It was my idea to start that platform in the first place, and these podcasts are actually a major generator of our success.

Lily: Yeah, I know. You never let me forget how popular they are.

Billy: Come on, that’s not fair.

Lily: Or always begging me to listen to the latest episode.

Billy: Is that too much to ask of you?

Lily: Actually, yeah, Billy, it is a lot to ask right now. It is. I’m trying to deal with merging two companies together. I also am having tension with my family. Devon and Nate aren’t getting along. I have a lot going on right now, and I could really use some support from my COO. So is that too much to ask from you

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

Billy: [Whistles] What are you doing here?

Victoria: Well, I was hoping to gather my thoughts over a quiet drink, but it seems like everywhere I turn today, I keep running into reminders of my messy life.

Billy: Oh, wow. And here I thought I worked my way back into your good books.

Victoria: Well, that was before I got sandbagged by Chelsea wanting to tell Johnny the truth about his biological mother, and apparently she’s already discussed this with you. So, thank you so much, Billy, for the heads-up.

Billy: I’m sorry. She did talk to me about it. And of course, I was gonna talk to you about it, but… Vick, I know you got a lot going on. I didn’t think it was the right time.

Victoria: It was perfect timing for Chelsea.

Billy: Well, Chelsea jumped the gun. This is a massive decision.

Victoria: Look, it’s not that I disagree telling Johnny the truth, but he’s trying to understand what happened with Ashland. I mean, we all are.

Billy: Of course, we’re gonna have to tell Johnny. When that is, I don’t — I don’t know, but I do know that the older he gets, the harder it’s gonna be to justify not telling him.

Victoria: It’s just, why is it suddenly so urgent? It raises a red flag.

Billy: I get that. And believe me, I’m not pushing for this.

Victoria: [Sighs heavily] Look, I have no interest in trying to wrap my head around this tonight. I was just trying to figure out a way to [Sighs] Just relax so that maybe I would get a little sleep tonight.

Billy: Well [Pats seat] Come on. Sit down and let me buy you a drink. I’ll bore you senseless with my self-absorption about my podcast. You’ll sleep like a baby.

Summer: Okay. Don’t let me fall into the pool.

Kyle: I would never. I think we should have a private swim when we get back to the house later.

Summer: Ooh, that sounds like a good idea. I’m a lucky girl.

Kyle: And I’m a lucky guy.

Summer: Okay. Can I open my eyes now?

Kyle: Mm.

Summer: Oh, okay.

Kyle: Almost there. Here. Okay.

Summer: [Exhales sharply] This is so sweet. Are those drinks what I think they are?

Kyle: Negronis. And there’s bruschetta on the way.

Summer: Mm. [Chuckles] This is bringing back so many memories of our favorite rooftop bar in Milan. And that breathtaking view of the duomo.

Kyle: May not be able to see the duomo from here, but the view is just as breathtaking.

Summer: You’re a real charmer, you know that?

Kyle: Eh, you make it pretty easy.

Summer: I have to admit, as happy as I am to be back in Genoa City, there are still moments when I miss Italy.

Kyle: I do too. That’s why I thought we could enjoy a little taste of it this evening.

Summer: Do you remember that first night we discovered that other rooftop deck with the best negronis in the city? We held hands across the table like we didn’t want to let go.

Kyle: Mm.

Summer: And we danced until we could not dance anymore.

Kyle: When we finally got home, we stayed up all night wrapped in each other’s arms, watched the sunrise. Should make sure to make more of those memories, no matter where we are.

“”*********************************

Kyle: I should really learn how to make negronis at home.

Summer: Mm, so we can have a taste of Italy without ever leaving the house?

Kyle: I don’t care where we are, as long as I get to look at this.

Summer: You know, I wasn’t sure if I was going to like these at first. Gin, vermouth, Campari, and an orange peel.

Kyle: It is an unusual combination, but sometimes those are the best kinds. Things that don’t seem to go together, but somehow do.

Summer: An unexpected yet magical elixir.

Kyle: Exactly.

[Chuckles] Maybe we should head home to have that swim. If no one else is around, we can forget our swimsuits. What do you say? What’s the matter?

Billy: No, I do get it. I’m not sure it’s funny.

Chelsea: It is funny. When did you become so fastidious, so particular?

Billy: I put this studio together to be free of distractions. So, the absence of clutter is actually on purpose.

Chelsea: Okay. Well, I think that crumbs add a little something.

Billy: [Chuckles] These are great.

Billy: No, you’re not

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

Chelsea: How did this happen? The notorious Billy Abbott is now the buttoned-down guy you bring home to mom.

Billy: I don’t think there’s anything wrong with trying to maintain a professional atmosphere, like not having popcorn on the floor.

Okay. Whatever you say, grandpa. I mean, do you hear yourself? Who are you?

Billy: Oh, lord. Really? I mean, that’s a first — somebody’s complaining that I’m actually a rule follower.

Chelsea: Yeah, kind of off-brand for you, isn’t it?

Billy: Yeah, I would say so, maybe. You give me a line, and I will cross it. You give me an order; I will give you disorder. It’s actually gotten me into some pretty good trouble over the years.

Summer: Babe, she called me “snowflake” for years.

Kyle: It was in fun — mostly. But look, Mariah has her hands full at Jabot, so she won’t have time to play show-biz wife to Tessa. Look past all the Mariah stuff. Won’t it be awesome for Tessa to be the face of Marchetti.

Best Lines provided by Eva

Kevin: Far be it from me to tell you how to do it, but sometimes a car crash is just a car crash, even when it involves the most hated man in Genoa City.

Chance: There’s more to the story. Trust me. And it’s all in the police report. And since I want you to take on a bigger role in this case…

Kevin: I need to be up to speed. Got it.

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

Chance: And if something feels off, don’t be satisfied with the simple answer. When I learned that Rey had a heart attack, the whole scenario just made sense. It made sense why he didn’t have the natural reaction to avoid a collision, why he didn’t hit the brakes, why he didn’t try to steer away from oncoming traffic. And that is why I need to know exactly what happened to Ashland Locke yesterday. I want to know what he did every minute leading up to his death. And you’re gonna help me do it.

Kevin: Me? What can I do? I’m not a cop. I can’t interrogate people. And while I’m sure his car has plenty of microchips inside, you really need a mechanic to analyze that data.

Chance: Go see the medical examiner. She takes her coffee with two sugars.

Kevin: But I have nothing to do with it in her office. She doesn’t even technically work for the GCPD.

Chance: Go see her and tell her how much you like that fantasy role-playing game.

Kevin: Oh, she plays that, too?

Chance: That’s what I hear. And that’s why you’re the perfect man for the job.

Kevin: Unless you’re suggesting that Ashland’s death had something to do with the search for a mythical orb, I fail to see the connection.

Chance: You can take this shared interest, and you can butter her up, man. Get friendly. Yeah? I mean, ask her to join your, uh — whatever it is you call a group of people who play that game.

Kevin: A guild.

Chance: Yes. Yes. Guild. And then once you two are guild buddies — yeah? — You make sure she knows that that autopsy is our top priority.

Kevin: [Sighs] Alright. I guess that’s simple enough.

Chance: And you make sure you know that police report by heart, man. I’m gonna need you up to speed if we’re gonna figure this out.

Kevin: “We.” Sure. I mean, yes. And I will report right back to you because that is what a good sidekick does. We’re kind of a team now, right? You’re boots on the ground. I’m your guy behind the desk, eyes on everything, plugged in to the mainframe. Yes! Maybe not. But I will see what I can do about speeding up that autopsy, and, uh, I’ll be in touch.

Billy: Well, I guess there is some poetic justice, the fact that Ashland Locke left this earth in the same way that his big persona was born — in a car crash.

[ Sighs ] I’m just glad that he is not on this earth anymore and he is out of your life for good.

Victoria: You know they say you’re not supposed to speak ill of the dead, right?

Billy: Yeah, well, I’m gonna make an exception this time because I know what he put you through. The way that you handled yourself… I am just in awe of you. Your fortitude. Your stubbornness. And, of course, your grace.

Victoria: [Breathes deeply] I told you to go to L.A. And not worry about me, but you didn’t listen.

Billy: Yeah, well, there’s nothing you can say to stop me from looking out for you.

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

Nick: Sorry if it seemed like I was brushing you off.

Billy: It’s alright. I’m just glad that you’re both okay and that you are now Locke-free and this whole nightmare is over.

Nick: Yeah. Um, I need to talk to you about that real estate deal.

Victoria: Oh. Business Nick. He’s unstoppable.

Billy: Yeah. Look at him.

Victoria: Yeah.

Billy: I’ll let you two get to it. Thank you again. Glad you’re okay.

Victoria: Thanks for stopping by.
