THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Try not to worry. Ms. Price. Try not to worry. This is my daughter’s life we’re talking about. Not to mention my bid for governor. I know it’s at stake, believe me, but you can trust me. I’ve got this all under control. You better mean that I do. I’ve come up with a foolproof strategy and I’m just about to fill my associate in, so I better hang up the phone.

But Paulina, I promise you Sloane Peterson will not be a problem for you or Chanel anymore.

So what’s this foolproof plan that, uh, that we have? Beats the hell outta me.

Holly was waiting for us in the driveway. I didn’t hear your key in the lock up girl. It was so cute. Henry started bouncing in his car seat as soon as he saw her. Who? Holly. Yeah, I, I think it’s really great that Nicole decided to make the sleepovers a weekly thing. Yeah. And it’s just nice because now one night a week, you and I will have a night to ourselves.

So what do you wanna do tonight? Well, maybe we could call Alex.

No. Will I get it? And of course you should stay and do your job, but I was just, I was really looking forward to seeing you.

No, look, no, I, I know, I, I just, what about next weekend?

Okay, I’ll just try I guess, but I love you.

Bye. The hell did, will do now. Nothing. Um, he was just, Supposed to come for a little visit, but he’s stuck in LA doing rites. Ah, that sucks. Hey, do you want, do you wanna stay in tonight? Like hang out? We could order, uh, food Watch, American Ninja Warrior on peak talk. Oh, I’m sorry brother. That sounds great.

But I actually have plans. Plans. What kind of plans? Well, you may not be getting lucky. Tonight’s sunny boy, fresh as I am. I.

Oh crap. Turf. Um, are these free? Uh,

not so fast. You’ll be jackass. Take off that mask. Take off my maer. I’m gonna start screaming my head off for the cops.

You are so busted, Mr.

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

You really wanna call Alex? Yeah, why not? Well, I just thought that we agreed that the threesome was not gonna be a regular thing we did. Yeah. No, I just, I just thought maybe the three of us could grab drinks. Oh, okay. I guess, Dre, Hey, you and I, we are 1000% on the same page about hooking up with Alex. It was a one time.

I just figured that the sooner the three of us go back to hanging out the less awkward it will be. . Oh yeah. Right. That, that makes a lot of sense. Yeah. Um, but can we do it another night? I just, um, I’m not really in the mood to go out tonight. Is everything okay

No, it’s not.

So what you, just back to being a player. You are the one who told me I need to get over Stephanie and move on. Okay. Since when, need to take my advice. All since I found out that Stephanie is not just not interested in me, she’s caught up on somebody else. Who? Your pal. Chad Damara. So when you told Pauline that we had this handle, you were just blowing.

I was up all night trying to figure out some way to neutralize Peterson and I kept coming up empty. Right. Well, she’s not the most ethical lawyer, so why don’t we just hire her PI and try to dig up some dirt on her. That would take too long. Paulina wants this handled Yesterday you saw Paulina’s copies of what she has on Chanel.

If we could just get our hands on the originals, right? Well, that’s gonna be complic. There. There always, there’s always the option of just paying off Sloan’s client, whoever here she is. Pauline is touting herself as the ethical candidate. She’s not about to be a party to extortion. She also thinks, and I agree with her, that Sloan’s client is just going to keep demanding more.

Okay. Well I never said that Pauline had to be the one to pay it. Well, where else are we going to get the money? Me. How did you know it was me? My PI told me that you were hiding in plain sight dressed as a mule. I thought I was kidding. Sadly, I was wrong. First of all, it’s not a mule, it’s a donkey. And second, I’m not hiding.

I’m working for a polling enterprises campaign committee. Somebody in this town actually gave you a job. I’ll have, you know, I have a very impressive resume. Leo, I have told you and told you a resume and rap sheet are two very different things and I have told you and told you that you are very rude. You know what?

Enough of the chit. I want the money you owe me now,

unless you don’t mind playing a very unpleasant game. A pen. The tail on the donkey.

You can relax. Chanel darling darling. Our problem is going to be all taken care of. Everything’s looking. Oh yes.

Wow. What are you so happy about? ? Oh my you you said my polling numbers would go up and they did. Oh well you know that is wonderful. But don’t you let your guard down cuz the other side, they are going to come after you with attack hats. . I’m tough. No, I agree with that, but I do know from experience that those ask can get really personal and they’re gonna come after the fact that Lonnie’s in prison.

Well, they do that. I will drive myself over to Tim’s office and ring his corny ass net. That’s one thing to go after me, but nobody messes with my daughters.

Hey, Dupre talk. You know, you can tell me.

Yeah. Yeah, I can. Um, I’ll get it.

Hey, great. You guys are home. I, I really need a favor from you guys.

I’m telling you, there’s no way that Chad is interested in someone else. It hasn’t even been that long since Abigail died, and he was madly in love with her. Yeah, well, I just saw him with Stephanie. They didn’t even notice me because they only had eyes for each other. There’s no way that Chad would, and they denied it when I asked them if they were hooking.

I’m sorry you asked them if they were hooking you. I know Sonny. I know. Not my finest hour. Look, even if Stephanie isn’t with Chad, it’s clear that she doesn’t want any part of me. So what, you’re just back to being a player. Mm. You were the one who warned me that one day somebody would come into my life and make me wanna change my ways.

And guess what? It happened. Her name is Stephanie Johnson. Only hitch. She wants no part. So now I’m going to soothe my broken heart with as much meaningless sex as possible.

I would never ask you to use your own money to solve a client’s problem. You didn’t ask. I offered Sloan’s client wants a seven figure payoff. Okay. Used to pay off million dollar extortion attempts. Mr. Rockefeller? No, but I do have a trust fund and you’re the one that told Paul Anna you’d have this handle by tomorrow morning.

Okay. I’m only gonna say this one more time. I will not allow you to use your personal funds to get me out of a jam with a client. Our client, our client, we this together. That’s what you said. Besides that worst things I could do with that money that help out the future, governor of our. And I could use Pauline on my side.

Well, what if the wrong person finds out? People will say that I used my company to help a Damara get a governor in his pocket. Yeah, I didn’t think of that. I was just thought throwing money at the problem helps

upon further reflection. You could be right. You good? Yeah. We’re gonna give greedy Sloan Peterson, the payday she’s been looking for.

Don’t play with me stark. I defended you successfully against some serious charges. Now it’s time to pay up. When you took my case, you said something about the free publicity being payment enough. I wouldn’t say that if I was dead drunk. If you don’t cut me a check, that doesn’t bounce. I’m gonna send you to a collection agency and the one I use doesn’t take no for an answer.

Do we understand each other now?

Johnny, you really need to start calling before you just come over. Chanelle and I, were in the middle of something, Allie. It’s okay. Our conversation will keep until later. So, um, Johnny, what’s up? Last I heard you were moving into the mansion with Ava. Yeah, yeah, I did. Uh, I did move back home. Mm-hmm. . And what about Ava?

She had to leave town. Without saying goodbye to Henry, he’s her grandson. Well, she had to make a quick getaway. My dad was about to have her arrested.

You are threatening me with bodily harm, and that is against the law. I can make a citizen’s arrest. You’re absolutely right, and I am so sorry that you misconstrued what I was saying. Oh, please see, as an officer of the court, I would never stoop so low as to threaten a client with bodily harm, even one who is in serious areas.

So sue me, wouldn’t it be the first time I am getting really fed up here? Well, look, you cannot get blood from a turn up honey. And I am seriously strapped. Why else would I agree to take a minimum wage job dressed up as a beast of burden? Your kinks are your problem. You owe me in one way or another. I always get my man.

And by the way, you bet on the wrong horse, donkey talk English. There’s no way that Paulina Price will ever be moving in to the governor’s mansion? Not now, not tomorrow. Not ever. And how do you know that? I saw in the news that she’s pulling ahead in the polls. So what all it takes is one dirty scandal and Miss Price’s political career will be over faster than your little romance with that ZA doctor.

Yeah. Odd girls. They’re so lucky to have a mama. As fierce as you are about them, you really think that I really do because they both say I really get on their nerves with that . But uh, I just love them so much. Oh, and they love you back just like I do. Not to mention how proud I am. That you’ve decided that you, you want to be of service to the people of this state, which is why I have, uh, why, why, what I have made an important decision.

Oh. Oh, that sounds ominous. No, it’s all good. At least, uh, I hope you’ll think so. Well, we, we won’t know what it is until you tell me what it is you. Right, right. Yes. Well, if you’re elected governor, I will resign as mayor and move to the capital with you.

Look, I just, I don’t think you should give up on finding the, I have met the one Sonny. Her name is Stephanie. Oh, it’s not, because if she was the one, you wouldn’t have to convince her. It would’ve. To happen. Yeah. I don’t like to let things just happen. I like to be proactive. God, I really, I hate that word.

Oh, you do. You my man, I’m gonna do me, which means I’m gonna go back to doing what I do best. And that is having as much no strings attached sex with as many beautiful women as humanly possible. In fact, your brother just made his triumph return to the streets by closing out an incredibly smoking hot reason.

Come on, Alex. Here is what? You had a threesome. Oh, skeletal.

Do I know any of the parties involved? Both of them. Allie Horton. Andre,

you’re kidding, right? Mm-hmm. . No, I’m not kidding. I knew it was my idea at first, and they rejected, but then they came around. They agreed to stop. Stop. Stop me. I don’t wanna know any of details. Stop. Allie is Will’s younger sister. I know the CS brothers have great taste in Hor. You cannot let anyone find out about this.

Okay? Oh, oh, woo. Oh, that’s my companion for the evening, Alex. She’s ripping and roaring. I gotta go. Alex. Alex is just kidding about the valley thing, right? Because you were trying to mess with me. Alex, Alex.

So now we’re playing slow off. We sure are. Okay, but where are you going? I’m going to get the checkbook for the trust fund. I left it at my father’s house unless you want handle tonight a while. No, I already told you. I’m not letting you use your own money. How else are you gonna get your hands on that much cash?

I just realized it’s easy. I’ll go to my father.

I did not know Steve Johnson had that kind of money laying around. He does technically what? Sorry? I’m lost. Dad and John helped the DEA bust a drug, Lord, a few months ago, and they used counterfeit money to set the guy up. Oh God. I know where this is going. Well, I know for a fact that the bogus bills are still stashed at the Black Patch office in case they ever need to use it.

You can’t be serious. Uh, if that money fool the drug, lord, it’ll fool Sloan, and I’m sure my father and John won’t mind. You wanna pay Sloane Peterson off with counterfeit money. Actually, I was hoping I could put you in charge of that. And what the hell are you gonna be doing while I’m passing off the fake Benjamins?

I’m glad you asked. Well, you’re making that bitch think that she just won the lottery. I will be breaking into her apartment.

What’s up? Stop. Is that how you greet all your dates? Is that what This is a date when you text me to skip the restaurant and come straight here. I figured this was more of a bully car. Just get in here and shut your mouth. So now I can’t even talk. I have my friends for convers.

I could let you move out of. It’s your home. You’ve dedicated your life to serving the people here. Well, and I’m very proud of that, right? But now it is your turn to be of service to the people of this state. And I wouldn’t wanna miss that. And my Deputy Mary is more than capable of taking care of things.

You’re really going to give up your career to be my first gentleman. There’s nothing I want more. What did I do to deserve you? ? You were you? Oh, oh, what’s what’s wrong? It’s something I have to tell you. Excuse me.

What’s that? Oh, he works for the campaign. Uh, honey, the volunteer office is down the hall. Oh. I’m a paid employee. I’m here for my check. Oh, shoot. Mary didn’t mail those checks, not mine. Uh, look, why don’t one, you take care of this and I will, uh, I’ll go pick his up some food for dinner. Okay. Sounds good, boo.

Okay, Mr. Dokey, let’s see about getting you paid. What? That would be excellent. What don’t I know you from somewhere. I don’t think so. Hmm. I really feel like I’ve seen you before.

I can’t believe it. Ava used a fake marriage license to get Jake’s chairs of Damara. Yeah. She’s good. Mm-hmm. not that good. My dad figured her out. Like he hasn’t done just way worse things. True. So, uh, what was his favor? You wanted to ask us? Uh, well, I was wondering if your couch is still available. Oh, hell no.

Absolutely not.

Johnny, we’ve talked about this. You cannot stay here. Come on hor. No, no, I’m sorry. The last time it drove me nuts. And we’re not gonna go through that again. You, you don’t understand. Okay, I’m gonna be staying at my dad’s. I’m not asking for me, I’m asking for a friend how her name is Wendy. I just met her, but you guys are gonna love her.

Mr. Me. It’s been a while. Oh my goodness. It’s too long. It’s been too long. How old are you? Oh, I’m fine, thanks. Oh, I’ve just been shopping mostly for Victor . He never shops for himself. . Well, you know what, um, speaking of Victor, yes. Do you know if he’s going to support Paulina and the governor? As far as I know, the whole karaoke family is behind her.

I’ve already mailed in my ballot and Victor’s well, mail in voting is the way to go. Mm-hmm. and I voted for you too. Oh, well you know that, that means more to me than you know. I just thought of something. What if you and Paulina both win? Won’t you two hate being apart? Well, we won’t actually be apart. No, wait a minute.

How are you gonna manage that? How are you the first of my friends to hear this news? But if Paul Nina is what to governor, I’ll be leaving Salem.

Uh, Leo Stark, that’s me. This sounds familiar. It’s just one of those common names. Oh, not to me, not. Oh, you’re my first Leo. Oh my God. What? Those shoes are those from? Teresa Donovan’s New Genie Collection. ? Yes, they are. Oh, I like a man that knows his couture footwear. , , . Oh, that’s it. Oh, I’m sorry. But that’s a going way for handing out cookies.

Oh, I’m gonna have to hand out a lot more of them. Hard time. You ever have a money-grubbing shyster lawyer breathing down your neck? Oh, what’s this guy’s name? It’s a her Sloan Peterson with an E. Well, how’d you get mixed up with her? She defended me for like two weeks and now she thinks she owns me. If I pay her off, I’m gonna be sleeping on a bench in the Horton Town Square.

We can’t have that. You know what? I might just be able to help you out.

You’re gonna break into Sloan Peterson’s department. We have to get our hands on the documents that she’s holding over, pulling its head, right? Yeah. What if they’re not there? We have to start somewhere. Do they teach, break and entering at public relations school? No, but I am Patch Johnson’s kid in high school, I picked the lock to the teacher’s lounge with my student ID card.

I will do whatever it takes to get my hands on whatever it is. Sloan’s hiding in there.

This is for that dinner. You missed, baby. I have missed so much of my life, but it certainly is not dinner.

ignore it. Oh, it. Ignore it. Oh, great, babe. Oh, can’t. I was wondering what I was gonna hear from you. Now you know, I hope this is good news for your client’s sake. You’re getting what you want. Sloane, my associate will be at the Brady Pub in one hour. One hour. Okay. I’ll be there. And where do you think you’re going?

I have a very important meeting. Yeah. More important than the best sex of your life. Someone thinks quite highly of himself. Tell you what? This meeting, it shouldn’t take very long. So why don’t you stay put and do what? I’m gonna sit around twiddling my thumbs until you get back. Yeah, I don’t think so.

Forget about it. Oh.

Oh, that’s, that’s what I’m talking about. Okay. Right. That’s exactly what I want you to do.

Your meeting’s all said, so I will go pick up the fake loop, bring it back here, and. I’ll head over to Sloan’s department. You really think it’s gonna work? It better?

Mine, some company. No, I d if it’s you. No, don’t turn off your, it’s fine.

May I Please? Go ahead. . Okay. . I don’t mind if I do . That movie looked pretty sad. . Yeah, well it’s uh, it’s pretty fitting for my mood.

You’re missing Will. Yeah, I dunno. Um. He was just supposed to come out for a visit. He’s stuck in La Don Rights. Hmm. I know a little bit about being married to men who are also married to their careers. . Uncle Vick should have retired a long time ago. Uh, he’s not the type to play golf or build bird houses, but neither was Mickey.

Do you ever wish

that they would put you first more?

Yes. I still wish that that Victor would sometimes. Yeah. Same with you. Yeah.

I know this has been a problem for you and Will before. Yeah. I just, I don’t know. Something has to change. You know, I, I can’t let this break us up again.

You know, we all ought to talk to Abe Carver. Abe, why? I just ran into Abe. He said that if Paulina wins the governorship that he is gonna resign as mayor and go wherever she is.

I’d love to know how he, yeah, he made that decision. the guy, right? Indeed.

How can you help me deal with Sloane Peterson? You need money to pay her off, right? You’re gonna give me a loan that is so generous. How can, how can I ever thank you. Do I look like a credit union to you? Um, no. I’m not offering you a loan. I’m offering you a j o b,

so you want. Us to let some random girl that you just met move into our apartment that I live in with my kid. Look, she’s not some random girl. Okay. She’s LE’s little sister, which means she’s about to be Gabby’s sister-in-law. Okay, well, if she’s that rich guy’s sister, then why isn’t she just buy herself a con or move into the mansion?

It’s literally a mansion. She can just take Ava’s old rooms. Now I don’t want to living in the same house as me. She and I are working on something and it involves my dad and her brother. What are you up to now, Giovanni? It’s nothing dangerous. Wendy and I just don’t want my dad to catch on to the fact that she and I are working together.

Well, when does she wanna start staying here tonight? Tonight, , Chanel and I have not been living together that long, and this will be our second house guest. Both thanks to you. Look, look, she’s not gonna be staying for that long, okay? She just needs to save up enough money to get her own place. Well, why doesn’t she just borrow the money from her brother?

She doesn’t wanna. , what do you think? I’m okay with it if you’ll thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. Okay. I promise you I will make this up to you. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Right. Okay. You are an angel. Oh.

Found here. James Bond. Wow. Shut up. Sloan just left. Are you. As ready as I’m gonna be. Well, that’ll have to do. Be careful. Moy. Penny, you

okay? Girl? I’s, see if you can still remember what Papa tell you.

So Abes gonna give up his whole career just for Paulina. Well, that’s what he said, and he didn’t seem to have any doubts about it.

What are you thinking? I’m thinking that maybe getting stabbed in the back with a knife was a, um, sign from the universe. What kind of a sign? Well, Alex is in charge of Titan. Mm-hmm. , he’s doing just fine. So maybe I take a page at Abe’s book, you know, just quit. Move to LA with Will, if that’s what you really want.

But I don’t know. I, I’d love being the CEO of Titan. It’s like, it feels like what I was born to. And Will loves making movies.

You know what? I think that the two of you should figure out a way to meet each other halfway. I think you’re totally right and I think you better go find Victor. Thank you for sharing your pizza. Goodnight sweetheart. Goodnight. Thanks.

Hey, me again. Um, are you working?

Okay, good. We gotta talk.

Hey, I hope that this is enough to make Wendy feel comfortable. Oh, she’ll be fine. Oh God. I didn’t realize my phone was on silent. I missed a lot of calls. My mom texts me. Is everything okay with her? Oh yeah, yeah, she’s fine. She’s just checking in. Hey, uh, we never finished that conversation that we were having when Johnny came by.

You said you had something to tell me.

Here’s the deal. My assistant, her name is Mary, she’s been trying to handle the books for my campaign and my business from Florida . It is not working out to say the least. I need another assistant, someone who’s right here in Salem, and that would be, Pay is better than it is for a part-time campaign worker.

Plus there’s benefits. 401k health plan, a dental plan. I could use a cleaning. I’ll take it. Something you need to know. Now you remember that movie about the devil who wears Prada? Remember it? I know every word. Oh, well Mary will tell you that I think that PR wearing devil is the hero of the movie . And that ma little nobody is just lucky to have a job.

I understand. Don’t worry, Ms. Price. I will work my fingers to the bone, making sure your every need is met.

what are you doing here? Stuff. I was here when you left. That was. Uh, was being the operative word. Leo is now my new assistant.

Looks real to me.

You made it. Oh yeah. And for the sake of your client and your boss, I better like what I see in that briefcase.

Yes. It’s still got it.

What? What the hell are you here, here?

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Deacon: Are you ready for someone who’s committed to you and only you? Devoting himself to your happiness? Brooke, you will never have to question my priorities or doubt my loyalty. So, what do you say? You wanna make me the luckiest guy in the world? Tell me you’ll marry me.. tell me you’ll be my wife.

Ridge: I can’t believe it. You– you actually bought it back, you bought the house back.

Taylor: Mm-hmm.

Ridge: Filled with all these memories.

Taylor: And now we can make more memories. So, what do you think? You wanna do it?

Ridge: I’ve got the blindfold on, might as well–

[ Taylor laughs]

Taylor: No, turn– turn our old house into our new private hideaway?

Bill: Well, this doesn’t mean you get time off. Have a son on your own time.

[ Laughs ] All right, I’ll see ya later.

Liam: What was that about?

Bill: Ah, it’s official. Taylor bought back the beach house and your brother is already moved out.

Liam: What the hell?

Bill: Ah, what can I tell ya? I– I, uh… you know, she used to live there with ridge and now that they’re back together, I guess she’s feeling nostalgic. I wasn’t about to sell, uh, the bel air house, that– that is my home. And now that brooke is free of ridge, well, I want a place big enough for her to move into.

Liam: You’re that cocky. I mean, you really think brooke is gonna turn to you.

Bill: Absolutely.

[ Taylor sighs ]

Taylor: You’re speechless.

Ridge: Yeah, I’m just thinkin’ about all the great times we had in here, all the– all the fun we had even after the kids were born.

[ Taylor laughing ]

Taylor: Yes, we did. Oh, ridge, I– I know this is a lot. I do. And I also know that you do not like surprises.

Ridge: No, I hate surprises. But I’m gonna make an exception. Thank you.

Taylor: So, yeah? Yeah?

Ridge: Yeah.

Bill: Ridge bailed. Full pivot back to taylor. He and brooke are done.

Liam: Yeah, uh, o– okay, but– but does that just automatically mean that you’re in? Dad, there are, uh, other men in the world.

Bill: Why’re you whispering, liam? And there are none that have the history with brooke that I do.

Liam: None that you are allowing yourself to imagine, but you just mentioned one of them– hope’s father.

Bill: Deacon?

Liam: Yeah.

Bill: I brought him up as a joke. You seriously think brooke would entertain the idea of having that low-life back in her world? No. Our favorite convict doesn’t stand a chance of a life with someone like brooke.

[ Brooke laughs ]

Wow, I– I actually can’t believe this. I mean, you… you brought a ring. You’re proposing.

Deacon: Look, I know it’s premature, I mean, I– I know you’re still technically married to, what’s his name? I’m sorry. Look, brooke, what can I say? You bring it out of me. I’m a man of action.

Hope: Dad, I’m a little confused. I mean, how and when did you even get that ring?

Deacon: I have wanted to come by here so many times since I’ve been back in L.A. And just dropped on one knee. I’ve carried this around for a long time, just waiting for the right moment to propose my love to you. And thanks to, uh– thanks to our daughter, that moment’s now. Brooke, look at this ring as a symbol of a better future, not just for us but for our daughter, too. Imagine what that would mean to her. All you have to do is say, “yes.” W memories to be made.

Taylor: So, wyatt took all his personal things, so everything that is left here at the house comes with it. And it’s a good thing, because, um, this new couch is a lot more comfortable than our old one.

Ridge: Interesting, ’cause I remember getting very comfortable with you on the old couch, quite a few times.

Taylor: Well, like you said, there are new memories to be made.

Ridge: I like this.

Taylor: Yeah.

Ridge: An old place for a new start.

Taylor: Yeah… yeah, and this is a new start for us. And as happy as it is, it doesn’t mean that, you know, that your heart isn’t heavy right now. Ending a marriage, that’s a lot. You know, I– I still don’t know exactly how we got here, except something about a– a pine cone falling on your head.

[ Both laugh ]

Ridge: Huh.

Taylor: I know there’s something. And, no matter what it is, I am here for you, ridge. Good or bad, I am here. So, whenever you’re ready to open up… I’m ready to listen, okay?

Bill: So, you’re telling me that thomas spends all day with hope–

Liam: Yes, for this tofu–

Bill: And most evenings as well.

Liam: Most, no, but a good chunk–

Bill: And sometimes spends the night–

Liam: With beth, yes.

Hope: And hope has no idea what thomas is doing, that he is completely manipulating her?

Liam: Oh, she doesn’t appear to, no. But– but brooke and I certainly do and we don’t like where this is headed especially given how much time they’re spending together.

Bill: Okay, well that’s– that’s good, you and brooke are on the same page, at least, and– and presenting a united front. And once I’m back in brooke’s life, which should be soon, I can help steer hope away from thomas, as well.

Liam: I actually really appreciate that. Although, I think, maybe, you’re getting a little ahead of yourself.

Bill: Really? All right, listen, you can think whatever you want. Okay, in fact, I’m gonna kind of enjoy that and– and it’ll be funny. You know why it’ll be funny? Because i am going to choose you to be my best man. That means you’re gonna have to make the best man’s speech and you’re going to tell everyone how wrong you were.

Liam: All right, you know what? I look forward to that. You tell me when and where to show up and I’ll be there.

Bill: Well, I better get crackin’ on that right now. I’m gonna pay brooke a little visit and get workin’ on her future.

Liam: Hey, dad.

Bill: Yeah.

Liam: Just… be careful. She’s hurt.

Bill: I know.

Brooke: I am touched. Truly, I am. But as for you and me… uh, well, we’re always going to be hope’s parents. We’re always going to be grandparents to hope’s children. But as a couple, deacon, I mean, you know how I feel about ridge. I’m not gonna give up on him.

Deacon: You can– you can’t blame a guy for trying, right?

Brooke: It was really, very sweet, really.

Hope: I think– I think dad and i both understand why you can’t accept this ring right now. I mean, you’re still technically married and, uh, the wounds are still fresh, but mom, can you… can you please just do me a favor and… keep and open mind? You know how much dad loves you, he would be committed to you. And you would never have to question his devotion to us as a family. So, I don’t know, maybe the mood ever strikes again sometime in the future and dad wants to ask again, I just hope that, I dunno, you might possibly consider saying yes.

Brooke: Honey, I love it that you want to see us so happy. And I can see how much you love me, really, I can see how much you care and that means a lot. But… I have a husband, and he’S… he’s the man I love, the man I want to spend the rest of my life with, and I’m not giving up on him. I mean, that door is not closed, not yet.

If you have this…

Ridge: I like that I can talk to you about anything, but I don’t want to. I don’t want to talk about brooke, I don’t want to talk about my marriage, not now. I wanna just sit here and look at you. In this cool, old house, that is, by the way, walking distance to our daughter’s house with her husband and those little kids.

Taylor: Well, you see that was all part of my master plan.

Ridge: Master plan, I knew it, you had a master plan.

Taylor: I did. And I also had one or two backups just in case–

Ridge: That doesn’t surprise me, either. And that’s why you should always be in charge of the itinerary.

[ Taylor laughs ] You never forgot I want a window seat.

Taylor: Never. This is surreal, isn’t it? Kind of? You know, being here in this house, together again.

Ridge: Well, yeah, because of you, because you didn’t give up. You didn’t give up on me, you didn’t give up on us and that would’ve been easy to do. So, thank you.

[ Door opens ]

Liam: Hey! You’re home.

Hope: Uh…

Liam: And you have company.

Deacon: Hey, liam.

Liam: Hey deacon, how’s it goin’?

> Hope: Sorry, hi. I totally missed your text. I’m sorry.

Liam: Oh, no. That’s fine. I– I just figured you were you know, busy at work.

Hope: Um, well, I am, still. I actually do have to go back, it’s just a lot with the preview right now.

Liam: Why did you come home, is there–

Deacon: It’s okay, you can tell him.

Liam: Okay… tell me what, guys?

Hope: My dad had an interesting proposal for my mom.

Liam: All right.

Hope: Marriage. He proposed.

Liam: Huh.

[ Knocking ]

Brooke: Hi, bill.

Bill: Lemme save ya the trouble. I can’t be here, ridge might see me. Well, I am here because I care about you. So you might as well let me in. I told you last time I was here that I was going to check on you.

Brooke: Yeah, I remember.

Bill: I meant it. I wanna help you get through this.

Brooke: Well, the only way to really get through this is for ridge to come home and to come back–

Bill: Brooke–

Brooke: To me. It’s going to happen, bill, it’s going to happen.

Bill: Has he given you any indication of that? He has no intention of coming back. He is with taylor now. Let me help you through this. Come back to me. Ma cherie. Just being

Ridge: I love this.

Taylor: Mm. Me too. It’s so peaceful… just being in your arms, being here together and knowing our family is– is back together, it’s–

Ridge: Yeah, I was talkin’ ’bout the sound of the ocean, but yours is nice, too.

Taylor: Mine is nice because this brings me moe peace than any ocean ever could.

Ridge: Yeah.

[ Ridge clears throat ]

Liam: D’oh! Whoa, okay. You asked brooke to marry you?

Deacon: She said no.

Hope: For now. But ridge has chosen to run off into the sunset with taylor, that’s his future. And mom will one day come to realize that and choose a future of her own. Nay. Choose a man of her own who actually respects her, unlike ridge.

Liam: A man who, uh, truly loves her, right?

Hope: Yeah, no one loves my mom more than my dad.

Liam: Yeah, except maybe my dad.

Bill: We agreed we had some wonderful memories together, we can have more.

Brooke: You are proving katie right, you know? You’re doing exactly what she said you would do. Okay, fine, fine, whatever, great. Katie’s right. You became available and here I am… where I belong. That’s after well over a year of my many, many attempts to reconcile with katie, to do the– the right thing. Well, she made it clear, she wants nothing to do with me. So, you don’t have to worry about katie, she does not want me anymore. But I want you. I have always wanted you. And I had you… and I lost you. And I forced myself at that point to stay away, to respect your boundaries. I told myself that if a life with ridge was what you wanted, that was gonna make you happy, I would respect that.

Brooke: I do want that.

Bill: The way that he treats you…

[ Brooke sighs ] Why would you want– why would anyone want that? It would be so much better if it was us. We were so much better. A true partnership, brooke, we could have that again. Don’t you remember what we had? Let me whisk you away. Let me help you forget all the pain and all the disappointment that ridge has caused you.

Brooke: I don’t want to forget. I wanna learn and i wanna grow and I wanna heal and I wanna do that with ridge. I mean, I am– I am very touched that you came here. It’s just, there’s only one man I wanna spend the rest of my life with. And I’m gonna tell you the same thing I told deacon–

Bill: Whoa, whoa, wait a minute. The convict was here?

Brooke: Yes, he was here, with hope and don’t you dare call him that. Look, you two mean a lot to me, you’re very important parts of my past, and I will always care about you, bill. It’s just, there’s only one relationship for me, that’s it. I still don’t know why ridge left, I don’T. But I am going to find out. And I’m not gonna give up on him. I’m not.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Cellphone rings ]

Noah: Glam club. How can we make your night unforgettable, chance?

Chance: Well, you can reserve the best table in the house tonight for date night with my beautiful wife.

Noah: Consider it done. You and abby celebrating anything special?

Chance: Just the fact that she still loves me, considering I haven’t taken her out in centuries.

Noah: [ Chuckles ] Alright, I got you. I’ll make sure it’s a night you remember. You guys deserve it.

Chance: I appreciate you. Thank you.

Abby: [ Sighs ]

Chance: Well, hi.

Abby: Hi, babe. I am so happy to see you. Today has been a complete nightmare in the kitchen. I mean, patricia I cut her finger. She had to go to the E.R. Then the dishwasher broke, so I’m back there scrubbing dishes. I don’t even want to talk about the little fire that I had to put out, but at least now I know how to clean a grease trap. What’s going on? What is this? Did I miss, like, a birthday or an anniversary or something? What is it?

Chance: Surprise.

Abby: Oh.

Noah: Hey, nate. Why are you here byyourself, man? Don’t you want to be part of the action?

Nate: I’m good.

Noah: Okay, well, if you want to vent about whatever’s going on —

Nate: Thanks, but I wouldn’t subject my worst enemy to what I’m holding back right now.

Lily: Hey.

Devon: Hey.

[ Sighs ]

Lily: Did you confront nate?

Devon: Yes, I did. And then I went for a drive to try and cool off afterwards, and that didn’t work. I just don’t understand for the life of me what the hell he was thinking, how he could look us in the eyes while he’s stabbing us in the back, and then throw around all these ridiculous accusations after the fact.

Lily: Like what?

Devon: He has the nerve to say that I drove him to betray us because I haven’t gotten over neil’s death.

Lily: What? I don’t even follow that logic.

Devon: Yeah. And then he said that I only want to be partners with neil, and that’s the reason why I shut down all of his ideas.

Lily: I see.

Devon: Why would I agree to do this merger with you if that were the case?

Lily: Yeah, I mean, well, it did take you a long time to come around to the idea.

Devon: It didn’t take me that long, and it’s a pretty big decision, so, yeah, I was going to take time to think about it.

Lily: Yeah, and we do keep our two areas of the company separate. I mean, we don’t have any projects together.

Devon: Okay. And you’re saying this why? You think he has a point or what?

Lily: No, no, no. Look, there is no justification to what nate did, okay? I’m not saying that you drove him to betray us.

Devon: Thank you.

Lily: But, I mean, I’m sure that you want a better relationship with your next coo, so… I don’t know, maybe it’s worth it to do some soul searching and see if there’s any truth to what he said about dad.

Devon: Okay. What I’d really like to do is change the subject, if you don’t mind, okay? We can talk about literally anything else. How about you catch me up on what’s been going on here?

Lily: Sure. Okay. Well, there have been some developments.

Tucker: Hey.

Audra: Hey.

Tucker: Sorry I’m late. Nikki newman made me an offer I couldn’t refuse, and it turned out she was setting me up.

Audra: For what?

Tucker: An interview with that journalist, talia morgan.

Audra: Wait, I know that name. She’s the reporter who wrote that article on diane jenkins. Why would you agree to be grilled by her after you had her series killed?

Tucker: Uh, show the world that I’m an open book. Nothing to hide, no one to fear.

Audra: [ Chuckles ] Bottle that self-confidence, and it can be your most profitable endeavor yet. But did you find out anything from nikki or her daughter?

Tucker: No, I was not able to verify that victoria is the ceo in cahoots with nate, but even if she was, she’s backed off now that he’s given away their plan. And the same would go for anyone colluding with him. So we need a new plan of attack. If you think all pads are exactly the same…

Chance: I got it all planned out. I got the night off, I cleaned up, got you some flowers.

Abby: Well, these are lovely, and you look even more handsome than usual, but I am a complete nightmare.

Chance: What? You look absolutely incredible. Are you kidding me? What’s sexier than a woman who works hard?

Abby: [ Chuckles ]

Chance: You’re the boss lady. You get things done. Let me take you out. Let me show you just how much I love you.

Abby: Mm, well, if you think I look good tonight, just wait until what I look like tomorrow night.

Chance: I can’t tomorrow night. I got a stakeout. I mean, I might be able to do the night after. I’m going to have to juggle some things around.

Abby: No, no, no, we’re closed for a private party. We need all hands on deck. I have to be here to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Chance: I miss you.

Abby: I miss you, too.

[ Sighs ] You know what? Let’s do this. Let’s do this tonight.

Chance: You sure? I mean, you said —

Abby: I know what I said, but there’s a time in my life when I would’ve shut that club down, and I think it’s important that I go there for noah to support him. Family first, right? I know that we have our own family, and I am crazy about being a mom, but that doesn’t mean that I’m going to stop being me, you know? I should still go out and have fun when I get the opportunity.

Chance: You absolutely should.

Abby: I think it’s important for our son to see his mom have a well-balanced, well-rounded life. So I’m going to go in the back and I’m going to work out some minor miracles, and then you better put out an apb.

Chance: Oh, yeah? Why’s that?

Abby: You better put genoa city on notice because the chancellors are going up tonight.

Chance: [ Sighs ]

Audra: I wish I had the perfect plan “b” for you. Chancellor-winters’ ipo was our best option. That is, if convincing devon to merge his years with yours for the controlling majority wasn’t just a pipe dream.

Tucker: Doesn’t matter if devon and lily have given up on it.

Audra: If they have, your only way in is to do something to undermine the company and force them to sell it to you in a hostile-takeover scenario.

Tucker: I hate that word “hostile” ’cause I’m anything but. I just operate under a different set of beliefs.

Audra: Oh, this I’m dying to hear.

Tucker: I believe in family and that some things are sacred. And there are only two people who should be running a katherine chancellor company.

Moi and her grandson. Everyone else is superfluous. So you need to figure out a way for me to set things right.

Noah: Well, I’m happy to play bartender and listen with an objective ear, offer some sound advice. Judgment-free zone.

Nate: Thank you, but I’m sure you have other customers to attend to.

Noah: That’s true, and I’ll attend to their needs, as well, but most of those people are strangers to me, nate. You’ve literally saved the lives of a lot of people I love, so…

Nate: I was a different man back then.

Noah: I doubt that. I hate seeing you beat yourself up like this.

Nate: There are plenty of people out there who believe I deserve it.

Noah: Sounds like you’re really going through it.

Nate: We all have our challenges, right?

Noah: Well, if it helps, we can compare troubles. I’m in a little bit of a situation myself. My ex-girlfriend, she’s back in town out of the blue. Part of me’s wondering what she’s really up to. She’s definitely trouble with capital “T.” And the other part of me is wondering if people can change. I kind of feel guilty for assuming the worst about her.

Nate: Look, I see what you’re trying to do here, noah, and thank you, but there’s no comparison. I don’t want to elaborate.

Noah: Alright, I got you. I won’t push. But if you need anything, just let me know, okay?

Nate: Thank you. Right now, I would just like a quiet drink alone.

[ Sighs ]

Devon: Alright, what are these new developments? Has someone else betrayed us?

Lily: [ Scoffs ] Yeah. Billy and I, we spoke to jill.

Devon: Mm, I’m sure that was fun. What did she have to say?

Lily: Oh, yeah, she was furious.

Devon: I bet she was.

Lily: Mm-hmm.

Devon: She merges her company with mine, and it takes, what, a week for nate to ruin every idea we had.

Lily: Oh, yeah, she definitely had some choice words for nate, that’s for sure. But what was surprising is that she wants to move forward with the ipo.

Devon: You’re kidding.

Lily: Only after we figure out where the other threat is coming from.

Devon: It doesn’t matter where the threat’s coming from. It opens us up to too much risk, as we just learned.

Lily: Okay, I understand your reluctance. I do. Trust me. But we don’t have the threat with nate anymore. He doesn’t have any shares to sell, so he can’t sell anything behind our backs.

Devon: Lily, it doesn’t matter what you say. You’re not going to convince me this is the right thing to do. I’m sorry. It’s just not.

Lily: Okay, look, let’s just table the ipo for now, and we’ll revisit it. I just — I want to talk about the family issue. I mean, this company was supposed to bring us together, and instead it’s torn us apart.

Devon: That’s not true. Company didn’t do anything to us. Nate did. And if you ever expect me to forgive him, you can stop ’cause it’s not going to happen. You can go ahead and exclude me from all the family holiday get-togethers if he’s going to be there, ’cause I won’t be. I’m done with him. He crossed a line that you don’t come back from. Listen, I’m done settling. Because this is my secret.

Lily: Devon, I am not asking you to forgive nate.

Devon: Well, that’s good.

Lily: Because I’m just as furious as you are.

Devon: I would hope you are, because what he did was an attack on your company, too. You know that, right?

Lily: I know that.

Devon: Good.

Lily: But I hate this. I hate it. This is our family. Like, we’re supposed to be stronger than this. I mean, how do we fix things?

Devon: Everything got fixed the day that he walked out of that door. You and I, we move forward together. Who cares what happens to him?

Lily: I mean, what happened between you two today?

Devon: It doesn’t matter, really, and I don’t want to talk about it. The only thing that you need to know is nate isn’t telling us who this other ceo is.

Lily: Well, who knows? Maybe when things calm down, he’ll come clean.

Devon: Don’t hold your breath. And my money’s on tucker still.

Lily: Even though he’s continued to deny it?

Devon: Yeah, absolutely, ’cause he says his main motivation for coming back to town is knowing that he has a grandson, and he’s known that for a year, so he picks the one week we’re going public? No.

Lily: I mean, like we said, it could be a coincidence.

Devon: Well, it’s a better chance that it’s just more betrayal from someone that we’re supposed to be able to trust.

Lily: Look, devon, I know that this hurts, and I know how much it’s costing us, but if you’re going to fight back, you have to do it carefully.

Devon: Yeah, I plan to.

Lily: Okay, good. So what are you going to do next?

Chance: Whoa.

Abby: [ Gasps ]

Chance: Not bad.

Abby: Wow. This place is incredible. I love the music, the color, the vibe.

Noah: Hey, you made it.

Abby: Hi. Come here. I am so sorry that we missed your opening night.

Noah: Don’t worry about it. You’re here now, and you two are my guests of honor.

Abby: Oh, stop.

Noah: No, come on. How often do you get to go out and have some child-free fun?

Abby: I mean, chance has been so busy, it’s kind of been like we’re two ships passing in the night. But you know what? We’re here now, so it’s all good. Mwah.

Noah: Well, as a special thank you for spending your night with us, I’m going to give you two the early bird special.

Abby: No way. I am offended. Yes, we might be here opening this club up tonight, but I assure you we will also be shutting it down.

Noah: Okay, I like a challenge.

Abby: Mm-hmm.

Noah: Alright, best spot in the house reserved for my two newest regulars.

Abby: Ooh.

Noah: First round’s on me.

Chance: Hey, thanks, man.

Abby: [ Chuckles ] Nate’s sitting all alone. Should we go say hi to him?

Noah: I wouldn’t recommend that. He’s not having the best day, apparently.

Chance: We’ll check on him later.

Abby: Okay, well, how’s allie? Where is she? I thought she’d be a regular at your club.

Noah: She was here earlier when she was on break from the lab but had to take off. But, you know, she’s good.

Abby: Is she really? ‘Cause I can sense something in your tone.

Chance: Oh, hey, detective abby, what are you doing? I thought we left the badges at home.

Abby: Okay, yes, I did, but I am still a nosy aunt. So how is allie really?

Noah: Couldn’t be better. Look, I should probably get to my other customers, but I’ll have a server bring over a signature cocktail, and you guys should go check out the multimedia art installation next door.

Chance: Alright. Thanks, man.

Abby: Nice. Okay, did you notice how noah tensed up when I mentioned allie? Do you think there’s something going on with them?

Chance: You know what? I didn’t even notice. You’ll have to forgive me. I’m out with my beautiful wife, and I just couldn’t stop staring at her beautiful face.

Abby: Mm.

Chance: Just keep asking myself, how did I get so lucky?

Noah: Three days ago, you said you were excited about going with me to this opening. All of a sudden you’re refusing?

Audra: Yes, because the gallery owner is a money-grabbing troll. Look, I have no respect for her.

Noah: You were just trying to get your own show there. What did you have this great epiphany?

Audra: Since I found out what she’s really looking for.

Noah: What is that? What is that? Some kind of dig at my work?

Audra: [ Chuckles ] Come on. Look, we both know the only reason you got this is because the owner wants to sleep with you.

Noah: Why? Why do you do this? What the hell is wrong with you, audra?

[ Cellphone rings ]

Audra: Anyone important?

Tucker: Very. Hey, what’s the latest?

Devon: Hey, I was just wondering if you had time to grab a drink tonight.

Tucker: Of course. Where?

Devon: How about we do the glam club?

Tucker: Perfect. See you there.

Devon: Alright, I’ll see you in a bit. Well, it’s all set.

Lily: Good.

Devon: Let’s see what kind of information I can finesse out of him. If you’re on medicare, remember,

Abby: This was a spectacular idea. I mean, when was the last time that the chancellors were out after dark without dominic, having some fun?

Chance: It was about time the earth was cooling [Chuckles] And I’m sorry about that.

Abby: We’ve both been busy. I get it.

Chance: And, hey, I know things were bumpy there for a minute, but we rallied just like I knew we would. We got right back on track.

Abby: Better than ever. I think this calls for a toast.

Chance: Oh, yeah?

Abby: Mm-hmm.

Chance: What are we drinking to?

Abby: To the lucky few who have found their perfect spouse. I love you.

Chance: I love you 10 times more.

Abby: Mm. Cheers.

Chance: Cheers

Abby: Really? He has to show up here tonight of all nights?

Chance: Just ignore him, alright?

Abby: If he showed up in town trying to stir things up with my mom —

Chance: Look, whatever happens with ashley, that’s her call, alright? And she is more than capable of taking care of herself.

Abby: Well, there’s someone else who’s even more important that can’t protect themselves that I’m worried about. That’s our son, dominic. At some point, tucker is going to want to meet him, and I do not want him anywhere near our family.

Chance: Hey, don’t do this to yourself, not tonight.

Abby: I know that you think I’m being some crazy, overprotective mom, but, I mean, yes, devon wants to have a relationship with his father, but even he doesn’t trust him as far as he can throw him.

Chance: Well, did devon say that tucker was going to be a danger to dom?

Abby: Devon said he thinks he has some sort of hidden agenda.

Chance: Well, maybe he’s had a change of heart.

Abby: Why would you say that?

Chance: Mm.

Tucker: Hey, good to see you, son.

Devon: Yeah, man, i appreciate you doing this.

Tucker: Anything for you.

Devon: Well.

Tucker: [ Chuckles ]

Nate: I wanted to make the most of this position I had been given, to be a full participant, for at least some of my ideas to be implemented. But it became clear that as long as devon could pull rank, that was never going to happen. So when a different opportunity presented itself, I grabbed it, took the initiative, set things in motion that would allow my voice to be heard and respected. Because I knew it was the only way I’d ever have a chance to prove myself.

Lily: But it wasn’t the only way, nate. It was a choice.

Nate: Yeah. So, uh…I guess that’s it.

Lily: Get out.

Nate: [ Sighs ]

Lily: [ Sighs ] Audra. Hi.

Audra: Mind if I join you?

Lily: No, please. I would love the company. But if you’re looking for an answer on whether we go public or not, I think you will be disappointed.

Audra: It pays to be prudent in situations like this. There’s a lot to consider. But if there’s anything I can do to help tip the scale, I’d be happy to lend an ear or make suggestions.

Lily: Yeah. I don’t know. I think I’m too blindsided to look at anything from a business standpoint right now.

Audra: I understand. This is a very complicated family issue for you. Every emotion that you’re feeling right now is absolutely valid.

Lily: Yeah. Well, I mean, it’s not just me. You know, devon and billy are just as furious. It’s like, we trusted nate, you know, and he let us down in the worst possible way. And, honestly, I feel like I can’t even talk to devon about it because I feel so guilty.

Audra: Why?

Lily: Because it’s my fault. You know? I proposed the merger. I encouraged nate to take the job. I convinced devon that we should go public. I mean, I thought we were protected from a hostile takeover, but who knew that it would come from our own inner circle?

Audra: I mean, no one ever does. You know, I’ve seen more backstabbing and betrayal in the corporate world than you can imagine.

[ Sighs ] It’s never pretty. I mean, from a stranger, you might expect it.

Lily: Yeah, but when it’s family…

Audra: It’s downright brutal.

Lily: You know what? Changed my mind. Why don’t you tell me whatever advice that you have?

Audra: Trust no one.

Tucker: Is there a problem? Is it the venue? Is it me?

[ Both chuckle ] Seem a little upset.

Devon: No, not at all. It’s not you. I actually specifically chose this place ’cause I thought I’d be able to avoid running into him.

Tucker: Oh, nate?

Devon: Yeah.

Tucker: Thought you two were tight.

Devon: Things changed.

Tucker: Well, if we stay here, I don’t think avoiding him is going to be an option. Super emma just about sleeps in her cape. 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.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Devon: Don’t leave on my account. Please.

Nate: What I said about you and neil was the truth. One day, I hope you finally accept it.

Devon: Why don’t you leave neil’s name out of your mouth, since he’d be disgusted with you if he were alive?

Nate: Keep telling yourself that, but we both know the truth. Neil would want new blood, new ideas.

Devon: You don’t know a damn thing about what he would want for his company.

Abby: I think I should go over there. Maybe I can help.

Chance: No, honey, they are fine. They’re family. It’s an argument. Let them hash it out.

Abby: A couple of months ago, devon told me that he and nate were having some work-related issues. I thought they had resolved them, but clearly not. They’ve come to blows before.

Nate: You were the one who brought neil into this…

Chance: Alright, let me handle this.

Abby: No, no, no. I know them both really well.

Chance: Trust me, I’ll calm things down.

Nate: That’s what I think.

Devon: And this is coming from the guy who’s never ran a business a day in his life, right?

Nate: Wow. I know how to treat people with respect at least.

Devon: Respect?

Chance: Can I offer an opinion here?

Devon: If you had any bit of self-awareness, you’d actually be ashamed of what you did, but you’re not.

Nate: Me? Ashamed of what I did?

Devon: You have the nerve to stand here in front of me and point fingers like you’re the victim when you’re the one that crossed the line with your family.

Chance: Gentlemen. That’s enough. I don’t know what’s going on here, but this is not the place.

Devon: I agree. And you’re not worth any more of my time.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] Yeah, you’re not worth my time, either.

Devon: Sorry about that.

Noah: Hey. Is there a problem?

Devon: No, man. Everything’s great. Couldn’t be better.

Lily: I mean, there have been occasions where I’ve made the mistake of trusting the wrong person, but I refuse to believe that I should be skeptical of everyone, you know? Like devon, for instance. I trust him completely. I would do anything for him, and I know he would do the same for me.

Audra: I admire that, truly, but I got a reminder today about putting too much faith in someone. There was a man in my life who I thought would never betray me, but then he disappeared from my life, moved on without even dealing with our unresolved feelings. I mean, of course he sees things differently and blames everything on me. I’m oversharing. Sorry.

Lily: No, no, no, please. It’s fine.

Audra: What I’m saying is, i sincerely hope devon won’t ever turn on you.

Lily: Why do you say that?

Audra: When money and power are involved, people’s true selves emerge. Their masks come off, and it’s not always pretty.

Lily: Well, I don’t know. I like to think that people can surprise us in good ways, too. That’s something that my father taught us and lived by. God, I wish you were here to help me fix this mess. He would know exactly what to do.

Audra: I’ve heard of neil winters. He was very well-respected.

Lily: Well, whatever you heard does not do him justice. I’m really sorry. I have to go.

Audra: One last piece of advice, if I may.

Lily: Yeah, sure.

Audra: I know you must be feeling a little traumatized right now, but in all the ipos I’ve worked on, very few companies have regretted taking that big step. Should the transgressions of one person with an ax to grind rob you of that glory?

Chance: [ Sighs ] Potential fight averted.

Abby: What the hell happened?

Chance: I don’t know. I think you were right, though. It did sound like it was work-related. But, hey, nate left, devon said he’s all good, so there shouldn’t be any more problems.

Abby: Well, you know whose fault this is, right? It’s tucker’S. That man is toxic. He poisons everything he comes in contact with.

Chance: I don’t know, honey. It kind of sounded like he was on the periphery of whatever this was, and his name didn’t even get brought up.

Abby: Well, he certainly didn’t do anything to cool it off.

Chance: I got an idea. How about we quit worrying about everybody else, and we get back to enjoying our night? Huh?

Nate: Last man you wanted to see, right? In fact, as far as you’re concerned, I’m probably public enemy number one. Tattoo studio gel pencil liner from maybelline new york.

Tucker: Hey, I don’t want to pry into what’s going on with you and nate, but, judging by your reaction, I’m guessing nate is the chancellor-winters insider who’s been sharing information with some predatory ceo?

Devon: That’s personal company information, tucker, and I’d really rather not talk about nate, if you don’t mind.

Tucker: Roger that.

Devon: Thank you.

Tucker: Hey, I’m happy you called. It’s good to see you. I felt like last time we got together, it kind of got off track.

Devon: Yeah, yeah. No, that’s — that’s really ’cause of me, and I apologize for coming at you so aggressively. I’m sure you can understand how it looked from my perspective to have you randomly show up in town the same week and find out there’s a mole in the company.

Tucker: Yeah.

Devon: So I think if I wasn’t suspicious, I’d be a fool, right?

Tucker: Right, right. I guess if I were in your shoes, I’d be pointing fingers at me, too. I’m just sorry that — although I’m not surprised, that anytime anyone hears my name in this town, they instantly conclude the worst.

Devon: Well, give me a break.

Tucker: No, it’s a nuisance, man. There’s nothing but rumors and innuendo. Nobody trusts me.

Devon: I mean, yeah. I think you kind of relish in that, though, ’cause it adds to your whole mystique.

Tucker: My mystique.

Devon: Yeah.

Tucker: Is that how you see me? Really?

Devon: I mean, I think that’s just how you are. You know, no one expects you to ever be the good guy, so you have to play by any rules. Sounds freeing, if you ask me.

Tucker: Yeah, I suppose being a ne’er-do-well has its advantages, but I’m very pleased that the apple has fallen far from the tree.

Devon: Is that right? Why do you say that?

Tucker: Well, because two guys exactly like me, that wouldn’t work. But the two of us balances everything out.

Devon: Yeah, I can — I can agree with that. I’ve actually been thinking that you and I should spend some more time together.

Tucker: Really?

Devon: Yeah. I know you’re a busy man, of course, but I have dominic this weekend and was wondering if you’d like to find some time to come and meet him.

Tucker: You kidding? Meeting my grandson means everything to me.

Devon: To me, too.

Abby: [ Sighs ]

Chance: You know what I want to do?

Abby: What’s that?

Chance: I want to kiss you on that dance floor over there. You know what? I’ll kiss you in the art gallery. Doesn’t matter to me. What do you say?

Abby: Mm. I would love that.

Chance: That wasn’t a yes/no question.

Abby: Okay, so you assume that because I’m eavesdropping on tucker and devon’s conversation that I didn’t hear what my very handsome husband was saying?

Adam: Eh, something like that.

Abby: Let me clarify. I would like to kiss you on the dance floor and in the art gallery.

Chance: Ooh, with pleasure.

Abby: Mm.

Chance: I say we start in the art gallery. We can “ooh” and “ahh” at all the artwork.

Abby: Nice picture you’re painting, mr. Chancellor. I think I am the one who’s with the artist tonight.

Chance: Ooh.

[ Cellphone pings ]

Abby: Work?

Chance: It can wait.

Abby: Are you sure? ‘Cause, I mean, what if there’s some sort of crime spree in genoa city, and you are the only person who can stop it, but you and i are in the art gallery making out?

Chance: Ouf. I’m not going to lie. That does sound like something right out of an action movie. Alright, you convinced me. I’ll see what it is. Not urgent. You have my word. Genoa city will be safe for a few more hours. Now, before we head into this art gallery, I say we take a peek at this menu, see what other masterpieces they can whip up back there, because that last drink was actually pretty good.

Abby: That is a wonderful idea.

[ Sighs ]

Devon: Alright, so when do you think would be a good time to come and meet your grandson?

Tucker: Oh, you just tell me when you’re free. I’ll clear up my schedule. It’s not every day a man gets to meet his first grandson.

Devon: His first. No pressure. Hey, listen, no pressure at all to talk to me about what’s going on with nate. But I want you to know I’m a pretty decent sounding board. Alright? So it’s an open offer. You just let me know. I’m here. Whatever you need.

Devon: I appreciate that. And… you were right that nate is the one that sold us out. He lied to all of our faces and was ready to sit back and watch us lose everything that we built. You know, I just — I don’t, for the life of me, understand how someone who calls himself family could do something that malicious and that unforgivable.

Audra: If you’re worried about running into your potential enemies, you just missed lily.

Nate: Last thing I want is another run-in with top brass at chancellor-winters. I almost got into a fistfight with the devon tonight. And, frankly, I wouldn’t be shocked if you wanted to take a swing at me, too.

Audra: Why would I do something like that?

Nate: I’m the guy who potentially torpedoed your well-crafted plans for chancellor-winters.

Audra: True. I did have to put in some overtime figuring out what might come next, but trust me, I don’t consider you an enemy.

Nate: Why not?

Audra: Well, I’ve been in this cutthroat business world for a while now. I mean, I’ve seen it all, and there’s not much I take personally. In fact, I appreciate your creativity. This is gloria.

Audra: What’s with the look?

Nate: I feel like I should remind you of which side you’re supposed to be on.

Audra: Make no mistake. Look, I know very well who pays my bills. I’m not condoning what you did, but I appreciate a man who sings for the fences. You can’t win big unless you take chances.

Nate: Hmm. I see. You like to live dangerously.

Audra: Life is short, so you should grab every single morsel of excitement out of it. I want to know your story.

Nate: Why?

Audra: I’m curious to know why you did what you did.

Nate: Why would i share that information with you?

Audra: Because you look like you need someone to talk to. And I like an exciting story. Something tells me this one’s going to be a doozy. Pull up a chair. I want the inside scoop.

Nate: I guess I have a few things to get off my chest.

Audra: Mm.

Nate: But I know better than to think that anything I say here is going to stay between the two of us.

Audra: You’re underestimating my ability to keep a secret.

Nate: Mm. I will say this much. Maybe I made the mistake of putting business before family, but devon was so focused on family that it got in the way of the business.

Audra: Oh. In what way?

Nate: You know what? It’s a chancellor-winters issue. You should ask the man yourself. Although, he lacks the self-awareness to give you an honest answer.

Audra: That’s why I’m asking you.

Nate: Forget about it. I’m in this mess because I shared too much information with outsiders. I’m trying to learn from my mistakes.

Audra: [ Sighs ]

Tucker: I might not be the best guy to talk to about family loyalty given my business history with katherine. But I have changed since then, so you know.

Devon: Yeah, let’s hope so. No, it’s just the fact that the winters half of the company is what I created with neil, and it’s a piece of him that he left behind. And it means a whole lot to the family. And you would just think that it’d meant a little more to nate. That’s all.

Tucker: That’s interesting you should say that. Does that tie into what nate was saying regarding neil?

Devon: Why would you bring that up?

Tucker: Well, first of all, i don’t want it to be difficult for you to talk to me about neil. I know what he meant to you. He was dad, right?

Devon: Yeah. Yeah.

Tucker: Yeah. Also, I’m really — I’m really sorry that I wasn’t there for you when you lost him.

Devon: You really don’t need to apologize for anything. It’s completely fine. But, yeah, I mean, neil was everything to me. And, you know, when you share so many good memories with someone on top of a lot of dreams that didn’t have time to come true, how can it might affect you?

Tucker: Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah, it’s been difficult for you.

Devon: Sure, yeah. But not to the point where it’s held me back from anything. Nate said some nonsense about me not being able to move on from his death and how my connection to him is going to be the company’s downfall, ’cause, according to him, I’m convinced that no one could ever measure up to the legacy neil left behind.

Tucker: Well, is that true? I mean, is that why all this is affecting you so profoundly? Is he right? ‘Cause if he is, I think that you need to think long and hard about it and figure out a way to deal with your issues before they take down chancellor-winters.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Dramatic music plays ]

The drone was hovering over the lake. I can zoom in.

[ Gunshots ]

[ Romantic music plays ] Hey. Hi. Hey. Nice to see you. Um… I know we’re here for sasha, but have you heard anything about lucy? Did they find her? Is she okay? Uh… I wish I had good news, but t-there’s no word yet. Oh, my god. The longer she goes missing the worse it gets. I know that it looks bad, but you cannot bet against lucy coe.

[ Sighs ] Come on. We really don’t have to discuss this now. I know you’re focused on lucy, as you should be. Are you kidding? I’m doing this for lucy. She’d skin me alive if she knew I was neglecting a client. Especially when that client’s you. Are were in the right place? Nina: Hi. Thank you for coming, nina. You said the judge made a decision about my guardianship. Tell me. Felicia, listen, I-I’m going nutty. Now imagine serena’s state of mind. I-I can only imagine. Well, y-y-you gotta give me something to take back to her. Yeah, I-I-I-I’ve been texting mac constantly for updates, and there’s just no news except for what we already know. Two shots fired, and no sign of lucy anywhere.

[ Sighs ] I — I just can’t believe this is happening. I know, I know. Wait a minute. I’m gonna hire my own divers. I’m gonna send them into that harbor and let them look. Mac and jordan are doing everything they can. Yeah, I don’t know. I don’t know about that. I’m telling you, I feel in my gut that lucy’s alive. I-I can’t really explain it, but I-I just — I-I really do. And, you know, felicia, there’s always miracles. A-and I pray that you’re right. I’m fine, robert. What were you saying about miracles? I have a job to do. So if you don’t mind. In fact, I do mind. Victor cassadine has a team of lawyers who are salivating at the chance to sue for unlawful arrest. Well, that’s gonna be pretty difficult, considering I didn’t arrest him. But he is considered a suspect in lucy coe’s disappearance. I didn’t see victor in that drone footage. Did you? Well, why don’t we give your boss a call, see if he agrees with me? Do not involve D.A. Scorpio. Well, this is his case, not yours. With all the evidence against anna, his ex-wife and the mother of his child, robert will have no choice but to recuse himself. We are in the very preliminary stages of the investigation. It is way too soon to be talking recusal. And just to be clear, the evidence we have at this point is all circumstantial. Oh. We’ll see. Well, that kiss felt different. It did. Yeah, but, like, in the best possible way.

[ Laughs ] Okay, so what now? Like, right now, or you mean, like, in big picture? Well, I — well, both. But I — mostly right now. Yeah. Well, right now. We, um… we gotta head back to port charles.

[ Sighs ] Yeah. I knew you’d say that. Mm. Then why’d you ask? I don’t know. On the off chance that you wouldn’T. You don’t want to go home? Yeah, I want to go home. I miss my kids like crazy. I just, um — I’m just reluctant to go. And why is that? ‘Cause I found something in jacksonville that I don’t want to leave. What? You.


Dante: Anna. Oh. Hi. You’re still here? Yeah. Just leaving. And, uh, jordan cut victor loose? Oh, yeah. She had no choice. You know, he’s all lawyered up, convinced he’s got away with murder. Hm. Yeah. You know, you’re putting a whole lot of stock into what could be considered falsified evidence. And you’re giving your friend anna a whole lot of special treatment. I’m using the discretion of my office. An office anna devane held for how many years? She’s been with the pcpd off and on since the ’80s. You were her hire, weren’t you? Originally. Maybe your discretion isn’t so professional after all. How many people in this department, from the old timers to officers who’ve got five years in, feel a loyalty to anna devane? How many of them would be willing to… give her the benefit of the doubt? Or turn a blind eye? Or actively steer the investigation to another direction? There’s a case here. I intend to prosecute it.

[ Scoffs ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ] Robert, it’s j jordan. Give me a call when you can. It’s important. What’s got the ada all fired up now? First things first. Any news from harbor patrol? I was on a police boat all night and most of today.

[ Sighs ] The divers came up empty. No sign of lucy? I was hoping you had better news. We have a suspect. But you’re not gonna like who it is. We’ll find whoever shot lucy. It’s just a matter of time. I need to share something with you. Oh, yeah, that — that woman who washed up at the quartermaines’. Not lucy. Yeah. Uh, jordan told me. Right, but do you know who it was? No.

[ Scoffs ] You’re never gonna believe this. Holly sutton. I do not believe what I see right now. Oh, did we just die and go to heaven? I don’t think they’d let you through those gates. Holly! Hey. Hey. I — careful. We just fished her out of the lake. You got a hug for me? Always. Okay.

[ Giggles ] Um, I want to take her home for a rest. I don’t need to rest. I need faces. People. Especially the people I’ve missed so much. Not as much as we have missed you. But where have you been? And how did you end up in a lake? Well, he re memory’s a littlefragile at the moment. A kind way of saying that it’s all fog. I don’t remember much about the last two years. So, wait. Hang on a second. Poof! Then you just back in port charles with no clue? That’s the gist of it. Yeah. Well, don’t worry. Now that you’re home, I’m sure everything will come back to you. Now, you can contest the decision, as is your right. But you should know that that could take months. The decision being? The judge ruled that brando’s death makes it even more imperative that you remain under the guidance of a guardian. I can’t imagine it being anyone except brando. Neither can I. Who did the judge choose? Well, that’s the thing. I’m sorry, sasha. Seeing as how you don’t have any other living relatives, it’s gonna have to be a court-appointed guardian. You mean a stranger? I’m afraid so. When I left jacksonville in my 20s, I thought I was going after everything i wanted, you know? A better, different life. And in retrospect, I mean, I wasn’t really running towards anything. I was just trying to escape all my mistakes here. The funny thing is, though, is that you — you actually ended up with a lot of what you wanted. I did. I really did. I mean, I-I figured out who I was at my core, and that’s really huge. But I never realized I was running away. And now I’m able to admit that. So you’re afraid that if you leave now, then — then — then what? You’ll somehow lose that clarity? I’m afraid that, um, if we leave, it’s gonna change us… how we are together, the ease between us. I can talk to you about everything or nothing. I love being with you, and I’m afraid to lose that.


Now, are you saying sasha’s life or day-to-day decisions are gonna be left in the hands of a stranger? That’s correct. That’s not happening. But if that’s the law, then… well, human beings make the law. We can fight it. Right. And we’re gonna win. Because if she needs a guardian, I’m in. And so am I. We will help her in any way possible. Wait. Wait. And no disrespect intended, but [Chuckles] The court is never gonna sign off on somebody with a criminal record. Well, there has to besomething that we can do. Someone else who can step in. There is. You’re looking at her. Mac: Where is it anna now? She believes she was framed. Of course she was framed! So she went looking for evidence to prove it. Obviously. Look, I get that anna wants to clear her name, but I’m a little surprised you let her walk. In a good way, you’re usually all about playing it by the book. I still am. That so-called incriminating video may have convinced the ada, but to me, it screams setup. And whether or not anna has it in her to kill lucy, I don’t, for one second, believe that she would do it in such a stupid and obvious way. There’s something else going on here, mac. You’re not gonna get an argument out of me. And in the rush to declare lucy dead and charge anna with her murder, people seem to be overlooking one thing. Lucy’s been missing less than 48 hours, and we don’t even have a body. Why didn’t you tell me lucy is missing? Oh, don’t blame robert. He was probably too busy pinching himself, making sure he wasn’t dreaming. Can you believe this?

[ Chuckles ] It is still sinking in. I’m so sorry. Do you have any idea what happened? I mean, we’ve all wanted to tear lucy’s hair out at some point, I certainly have, but wanting to kill her? I mean, who would go to those lengths? Why don’t we ask him? What? Holly is alive? Yeah. Saw her in the flesh. Oh, my god, that’s incredible. I have to call robert. Robert already knows. Oh, yeah. That’s why I couldn’t reach him, probably. Yeah, probably. I mean, he was one of the first on the scene when the quartermaines found holly in the boathouse. He must be so happy. It was a pretty wild reunion, I’ll say that. And she’s all right? And where has she been all this time? She didn’t contact us. Why didn’t she contact us? We don’t know. I mean, her mind seems kind of fuzzy on the details, but they checked her into the hospital, and everything seems fine. Holly alive and well. Mm. Maybe that’s a sign. Of what? That if holly can be found… maybe so can lucy? Um, I can’t wait to see her myself. Ada arden: Detective falconeri, kindly inform ms. Devane that she’s not going anywhere. Looking back on life, it’s — it’s a trip, isn’t it?

[ Chuckles ] Yeah. Sometimes fun and sometimes not so much. Mm. I mean, I had the same or similar experience as you when I joined the navy right out of high school. Because at the time — at the time I thought I was looking for a purpose. Or a career? Right. But now I realize I was — I was just looking for a home. And I found that. I definitely found that. I mean, those guys are my brothers in every sense of the word, and… and it did fill the void for a little while. But the void’s still there. Yeah. I mean, after everything that happened, after thinking that I was jason, it just became so clear to me. My whole life… I was just looking for who I was. For — for were to belong. For… for someone to belong to. Don’t you think you found that in port charles with the quartermaines? Yeah. But where i really feel it… is with you.


I don’t want you to think that I’m looking to you to be the answer to all my problems. Like we’re just gonna slide into bliss and live happily ever after or something. Well, that’s good, because happily ever after doesn’t exist. And it certainly doesn’t exist with me. I mean, you know me. I do. Inevitably, I’m gonna get fired up about something and I’m gonna go tearing off to god knows where, doing god knows what. I know. I know. And I’m okay with that. Really? Really. Do you remember the conversation we had in your kitchen after the quartermaine picnic? Of course I do. You said you were scared to see the end before it even begun. After our time here… do you still feel that way? No. What we have feels solid. In a way it didn’t before. Well, I guess jacksonville not only changed me, but it changed us. Now, doesn’t that tell us all we need to know? Sorry I’m late. Got stuck in traffic. Martin was just filling us in on the judge’s decision. I figured as much. Court-appointed guardian? Yeah, and as you can imagine, sasha’s not too happy about it. And you two are out ’cause of you’re… history. That leaves me. You’re serious about being sasha’s guardian? You’re the one who told me it was time to step up and be here for my family. Yes, I did. So, somebody’s gotta do what brando would have wanted. Why not me? Jordan: Well? It looks like anna with a gun. But there has to be another explanation. Either this video was doctored or… something. This I know — no way in hell did anna lure lucy to the docs then shooter her in cold blood. Which means someone else did and set anna up to take the fall. In other words, lucy may be the victim, but it’s anna who’s the real target. Exactly. And you know who’s after her, don’t you? My, uh, apologies for the interruption, but, uh, D.A. Scorpio, do you, by any chance, have an update on lucy? Okay, cassadine! Why don’t you tell us? You’re the one who’s been spending all the time with her. Well, if only I could. T-there is nothing I wouldn’t do to find her. So if anyone has an idea as to how I can help, please, please let me know.

[ Grumbles ] You’re my first call. Cassadine? Victor. The rottenest apple in the whole barrel. And that’s saying something. Yeah, it is. He seemed sincere about wanting to find lucy. Why were you so hostile to him? Because we think victor’s behind lucy’s disappearance. Really? That suit doesn’t scream “cold-blooded killer” to me. Well, looks can be deceiving. In fact… don’t give her that look. What look? The look, as if I wouldn’t catch it. In fact what? What has that man done? What is going on? Ada arden: A warrant to search ms. Devane’s car, and another has already been issued for her home. Officers are on their way as we speak. That’s really very efficient. Well, what can I say? When a system works, it works. Yeah, but I know that commissioner ashford wouldn’t sign off on this. Fortunately, the commissioner isn’t judge and jury. That’s funny. I was gonna say the same thing about you. I admire your loyalty, detective, but in this case, it’s misplaced. Your former boss, here, is the prime suspect in the disappearance of lucy coe.

[ Scoffs ] Wait. What? Come on, that is insane. Maybe. Maybe not. Let’s take a look inside your car and find out.


You know… you were right about everything. Not only is what we have worth pursuing, I want it. But I want it because it’s something I choose. Not because it’s something I’m hiding in. Does it — does it feel like you’re hiding? It feels like you’re the best thing that’s happened to me in a really long time. And if we do this, I don’t want to mess it up by doing something stupid or making a dumb mistake. You won’T. Make a mistake? Oh, no, you’ll definitely do that. We both will. But you’re not gonna lose me over it. How do you know? I just do. When I said you needed to step up your game, I didn’t mean that you should take on this kind of responsibility. I want the responsibility. I want to be here for sasha, since brando can’t be, and helped her through this awful time. Keep it in the family? That’s good, right? It’s very good. I’m not brando. No one is or could be. But I promise to give it my best shot. I know you will. The last thing I want is a stranger telling me what I can and can’t do. So is this a possibility? For gladys to be my guardian, even though she’s technically not family? It’s not the worst idea in the world. In terms of succession rights, the state of new york doesn’t distinguish between a mother and a mother-in-law. Judge might be persuaded to think in the same terms when it comes to a guardianship, provided, of course, ms. Corbin is deemed a suitable option. Worth a shot. You say yea, I’ll inquire. What’s the worst thing that can happen, huh? They say no. So…it’s decided. Unless you think I’m not up for the job. Anna is convinced that victor set her up to cover his own tracks. It’s a win-win, right? He gets rid of anna and lucy in one shot. Well, back up. I thought victor liked lucy. And vice versa. Felicia told me they were both all over each other while martin grey was out of town. They were. But according to anna, it was all an act on lucy’s part. Lucy was actually working for her. For anna. Trying to get an angle on victor to connect him to luke’s murder. Problem is, lucy went a little rogue. Sounds about right. And anna tried to call her off, but — but lucy being lucy, she didn’t listen. So anna thinks victor found out and turned the tables? Victor denies it, of course. And if that drone footage can’t be disproved… victor gets away with murder… again. Warrants have been issued already, huh? Well, that’s impressive. Remind me to make a sizable contribution to ada arden’s campaign should she ever decide to run for higher office. I think that’s enough excitement for one day. I’m gonna take you home, put you to bed. Oh, really? While I sleep on the couch. I think that’s quite possibly the worst example of deflection that I’ve ever seen attempted. What is so terrible about victor cassadine? Well, holly… where should I begin? You know, she’s not gonna stop asking you. Like a dog with a bone. Like a dog with a bone. Yeah, but a really elegant, sweet, lovable dog. Nice try. Luke is gone. Gone? As in? Yeah. Yes. Gone. No. We have reason to believe that victor is responsible. We thought it was an accident — ah! Felicia. Accident, my foot. We all know it was premeditated murder. I can’t believe it. Luke, of all people. How can that kind of energy just cease to exist? Let’s go home and talk about it there. I’m not going anywhere just yet. What’s this? You just can’t go around harassing law-abiding citizens. I don’t care how high-profile the case. You may want to rephrase the “law-abiding” part when you see what we found in the trunk of ms. Devane’s car. Which she showed us voluntarily. She popped the trunk herself. Also in here are the clothes the perpetrator was wearing when they shot lucy coe. How do you know what the perp was wearing? There’s footage. And as you’ll see, the shooter bears an uncanny resemblance to ms. Devane. Footage that hasn’t been verified. We don’t know if anything on there is real. Hey, I gotta go take care of something. We know a woman is missing after two shots were fired… listen to me right now. We gotta play by the rules, okay? The system is working against you. But the advantage we have is we know someone is setting you up. We’re gonna fix this. Trust in that. I’ll be back.


You’re not gonna lose me. Because… I — I understand the true meaning of that word — loss. The weight that comes with it. I was — I was lost for over two years. It’s not like a — it’s not like a fight or — or — or a breakup or — or differences that you can’t work your way through. When you lose something, it’s gone. And if, by some miracle, you get it back, it — it’s never the same. I mean, the time that you don’t have together… that you couldn’t reach out and just hold somebody that you love. You don’t get that back. But… loss does teach you the difference between what you simply like, what you value… and what is truly, truly irreplaceable.

You are irreplaceable. Carly, there’s nobody like you. And no one is to me what you are. That’s just a fact. I think you’d make a great guardian. But since you’re throwing my words back at me, remember I told you? We’re all in this together. And I hope that includes me. I know that we’re not technically family, either, but there’s a part of me that will always think of you as the daughter I never knew. I’m honored. Even though I don’t deserve it. Hey, if life was about deserving, people in this room would sure be in trouble.

[ Laughs ] Would we ever. I love you. I will always be here for you. Always. I love you, too. Well, you let me know as soon as possible. Thank you. Nina: Hey. Lucy? Huh? Oh, no. Nothing yet. Hey, you know what they say — no news… but right now, I gotta be honest — it feels pretty lousy. We’re all pulling for her. You don’t have to say anything without a lawyer present. Oh, she seems to have the silent thing down pat. Jordan: Silence isn’t an admission of guilt. Or didn’t they teach the fifth amendment when you went to law school? What I was taught was to follow the evidence. That’s all I’m doing, commissioner — my job. We don’t know how that gun and those clothes ended up in your car. Someone planted them. It had to be victor. Dante: Robert. Have you heard from anna? You know, my phone hasn’t made a peep all day. Felicia: Is this about lucy? Lucy still hasn’t turned up. The ada is convinced that she’s got her shooter.

[ Groans ] Of course she does. Come on, robert, I mean, she works for you, but she’s always jumping to conclusions. Who does she suspect? Anna. You’re falling for it, just like he knew you would. You see that, don’t you? You know what needs to happen. Officer williams

[Sighs] Take the evidence to forensics to get analyzed. Now it’s your turn. You have more than enough to arrest her, and you know it. Do your duty, chief scorpio. Or I’ll find someone who will. Arden’s investigating anna? Yeah. For shooting lucy? That’s ridiculous. It’s a setup. I agree. Yeah, I-I’d bet the farm on who’s behind it. Excuse me. W-w-wait. Where you go– oh, damn it. Hello. Hello. Uh, I’m sorry. I, uh — I don’t believe we’ve met. Consider this our introduction, then.


I love this. Me, too. You know, the ocean is so incredible. It’s amazing how it can make you feel so small in the face of such vast beauty. And you’d think it would make you feel the opposite. But it’s empowering somehow. I am familiar with that feeling. No, it’s true. Such a big part of this past year has been sweeping away all the stuff that doesn’t matter, just, like, letting go of everything that happened to me. It was a nightmare. But…I survived. It’s over. And it’s shaped me into who I am. Just like this experience. This experience shaped you. 100%. And it’s not like we’re gonna lose sight of us. Because who we become is — is who we are. This is us. I think I’m gonna like us. A lot. I already do. No time like the present. I will officially petition to have ms. Corbin appointed as your guardian. Thank you. Yes, thank you. Martin, I can’t imagine how distracted you are, and yet you’re here getting things done. Yeah, well, with a little bit of luck, at least will have one happy ending. Don’t lose hope. No. To better days, little one. Better days. All right, you’ll hear from me as soon as I hear from the judge. Sir. Ms. Reeves, ms. Corbin.

[ Sighs ] You ready to go home, sasha? Oh, thanks.

[ Chuckles ] Hey. Hey. You got this. Thank you for everything. I’m really impressed with sasha. I mean, with everything she has to go through with this guardianship stuff, she still has empathy for martin. Well, you know, it — it just gives me hope that she’s gonna get through this. She’s gonna get through this. You know why? Hm? She has us. Damn straight. Yeah. That was for luke spencer. The next one will be for lucy coe and anna devane. I-I [Chuckles] I think you’ve made your point. Let’s go. There’s a lot more where that came from. Yeah. You know, I’m tempted to press charges. Press charges? Uh, for what? I didn’t see anything.

[ Sighs ] I was checking my e-mail. You know, I would throw this drink in your face, but I don’t want to waste good vodka.

[ Sighs ] ‘Cause, um, your day is coming. Oh, is that so? Yeah. Ticktock.

[ Cellphone rings ] Give me some good news. Ah! Mm. Yes. I thought our little surprise package would pay dividends. And what about casa devane? Oh, the search is under way. Good. You know, I almost feel sorry for anna. I’ll be such a shame if they find something in her own home, of all places, that could put her away for the rest of her life. Must be nice to be you. Defenders and special treatment wherever you go. A crime was committed. It’s my job to take the case and prosecute it. End of story. Do you not recognize a frame job when you see one? Or are you just another name on victor cassadine’s payroll? I could have your badge for that. Okay. Mac, come on. Don’t fall on your sword for me. I’m not arresting you. Then I’ll have no choice but to report you to internal affairs. Jordan, just do it. Come on, please. We’ll figure it out later. Come on. Anna devane [Sighs] You’re under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you can’t afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you. Do you understand these rights as I’ve read them to you? I do.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Honey, I’m, I’m fine. Actually, I’m doing better every single day. Yeah. I miss you too. Hey, John just walked in. Okay. I will. I’ll tell him. Yeah, and I will call you as soon as I get home. Love you too, sweetie. Bye. And that was semi. Hmm. Well, you’ll be talking to her real son. Oh, and why is that? Well, because you said you would call her when you got home and I just ran into Dr.

Patel in the hallway and he said they’re springing you outta here in an hour. Oh my gosh. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Don’t start quit. No, no. You start, I starting and get all this falls apart. I need to call be and you need to call Brady. He’s been very conservative. What’s the matter, uh, about Brady? What about him?

Ran into him when I was back at the house and, um, he just broke up with Chloe.

Have you completely lost your mind? There’s no way in hell that Brady would ever let you move in here. Well, I understand your reaction. I mean, I could hardly believe it myself, Brady, this, this, this can’t be true. Right. Please tell me that she’s making it up and then throw. The hell out of here.

Chloe. Stephan, listen, I heard about you and Brady. I came to check on you.

Chloe. Ah, come on,

Chloe.

I hope you’re not giving up on her that easily.

Kars nice this time of year. He says you love it. He says

What changes? Scenery can be good for his mind and new lab beans. New work. No ideas,

and after all, Salem is nothing without Ste. Anyway, so, so long. Good rids

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Coming somewhere, you’re all packed up. It looks to me like you’re fleeing the scene of a crime. As I told the police, I’ve done nothing wrong. And then why are you so anxious to leave? If you must know I’m leaving town, I have a plane to catch. So if you excuse me, I’m No, you’re not. You’re not going anywhere.

Not until we talk about what you did to step in. I’m not giving. Fun, Chloe, but seeing as she’s not here, I’m going to give up on knocking on her door. Just keep trying. Remember faint heart. Never one fair lady. Right? Thank you. It’s always nice to get advice from someone you barely know. It’s not advice, but encouragement.

Keep fighting for her. Don’t become discouraged just because for the moment she’s with Brady. Okay, not that it’s any of your business, but Chloe and Brady are not together anymore.

I on understand why you fired me and it wasn’t because a budget mandated downsizing. It’s because you and RA got in a fight last night. What? Well, you and Ra were arguing about the fact that you and I were working together and how exactly did you learn that? Jada told me. Wouldn’t she just go put it on her?

She was on her way home and she happened overhear the two of you fighting outside the pub. Oh, and she decided to listen in. It wasn’t on purpose. But you did hear enough to understand why you suddenly fired me this morning. Oh, I’m, I’m sorry. No, don’t be. I do wish you would’ve told me in person, but I understand that I’m, listen here, I know you’re here for my badge.

Oh. Um, this is why you’re here, isn’t it? No, I’m. We hire you. I want you to stay. What? What? Really? Yeah. And I, and I also want, um, to forget that this ever happened in the first place.

What about ra? Well, when I told him that I, I fired you, he was really upset. He didn’t wanna be the reason that you lost your job. He pretty much insisted that I hire you.

It’s really big of home. You know, maybe this isn’t such a good idea after all.

So, apparently Brady felt the need to end things with Chloe for Rachel’s sake.

I understand the impulse. Mm-hmm. , but what? I also understand that Rachel doesn’t want someone to replace her mother, but Brady can’t succumb to every tantrum that Rachel has. If he does, she will simply learn that she can manipulate people with her moods. Yeah. Well, you know what? I think you can tell him that, but it’s not gonna do any good cuz he also said he didn’t have a choice.

What does that mean? Well, I’m not sure. Think I have a pretty good idea. Oh, so we sense Kristin’s handy Work here. Well, I am so sorry, Chloe. I, it seems I caught you in Unawares Brady. I, why didn’t you tell Chloe yourself about our plans? I mean, men, they will forget to tell you the house was on fire.

I was gonna tell you. I had no idea she was showing up here today. But you knew she was moving in? Yes.

Oh my God. I don’t, I don’t understand. This is Marla’s house. She almost just died. And you’re gonna let the woman who spent a lifetime tormenting her move in here? No. I was really hoping that we can conduct ourselves. It’s a dull. What is John gonna think? But sitting across from her at the breakfast table every day, oh, maybe a train is around you don’t what, Kristin?

You can take your snide remarks and just shove. Now I understand you breaking up with me for Rachel’s sake, but moving her into your dad and Marlena’s house, that is madness. Mm-hmm. . Well, you know, you’re gonna have to take this up with Brady because it was all his idea.

Nicole, clearly my working with you and for you has caused problems for you and ra. So if I go back who say those problems aren’t gonna start all over again, well, no, they, they won’t because RA and I cleared the air, so things are much better. Is he like a ra? Just thought I rushed. He thought you rushed what?

Nothing. Nothing. No, no, no. You said you cleared the air with ra. I think you need to do the same thing for us.

Ry thought I rushed into marrying. Because of you, but why? Well, didn’t Jada tell you that part? No. No, no. Stop. Jada is not a part of this conversation. Stop using her to dodge answering the question. Why was Ray so worried about you rushing in to get married because of me.

Ra thought I married him too. Have avoided my feelings for you, , which is ridiculous. You see?

Wait, it, it was your idea to have Kristen move in?

Obviously it’s not ideal, but Rachel wanted to spend time with her mom. Yeah. Rachel wants to spend time with her mom, but you’re gonna inflict her on your dad and your stepmom. I think it’s going to be a time for healing. Wouldn’t sharing custody be better than this? Oh wow. Yeah. My dear, dear Sweet Chloe.

Thank you. Thank you so much for your loving input. Um, shared custody. Oh my god, that sounds like a reasonable solution. Uh, but I don’t think the judge is going to allow it because your big mouth made it sound like I was, uh, dangerous and unhinged because you are dangerous and unhinged. Okay, well, in a real way, you were responsible for, um, this new living arrangement, Brady.

Come on, you’ve gotta go back to the judge and make something else work. Other than this, Chloe, I just, this is, this is my only option. Your only option. What the hell,

Brady? Why are you really doing this?

Brady and Chloe broke up. That’s what my sister said. What happened? You know, I don’t know. Christian was so busy doing her happy dance. I didn’t get a lot of the details. Wow. good for you with Brady out of the way. Now you have a clear shot with Chloe. Worked out for both of you. Yeah. Worked out for you too.

What do you mean? You know, Lee, ever since I’ve been back, you’ve been shoving me at Chloe. You said you were in love with her. Right. You just want me to be happy. Had nothing to do with me being married to your fiance.

You want to know what I did to Stephan? I saved his life. So you are welcome and goodbye. Not so fast. What are you doing? Give that back. Oh, is this important? Is it fragile, irreplaceable, give it back. Nope. Mm-hmm. . Not until you tell me what else you did. I don’t know what you mean. Oh, well, Stephan. Stephan was madly and passionately in love with me, and now he hates me with a vengeance, and I know it’s because of you.

What did you get?

Yeah. Come on, start talking. Because I’m not just gonna destroy everything in this box. I’m gonna destroy the entire lab. All I did was bring s Stephan’s son back to life, which was a challenge because thanks to you, he was missing a heart. You told me there was nothing you could do to save him. And after I figured out how to keep him technically alive, I wasn’t sure if I could ever revive him, as in Jake’s heart became available.

And since severe twins, it was a perfect night. Wait a second. Stephan has Jake’s heart. Duh. Jake dies and sucker blue, his twin comes back from the dead. Didn’t you find that timing just a tag coincidental? Oh my God. Chris and I first tried to save Jake, of course, but, and we realized it was a lost cause. I made this switch and.

And then he was alive. Isn’t that enough for you? No. No. Go stop doing that. I can’t help it. If you woke up a little different, my theory is that I took a near death experience for him to realize that you weren’t worthy of him.

No, that is not what happened. Okay. You better start telling me the truth, or you are a dead. Right, and this time there’s not gonna be a doctoral to save your life.

I’m sorry, I shouldn’t ask you that. That’s none of my business. Let me know what it’s, it’s okay. I, I could see. Dragging rape off to City Hall to get married. It looked a little knee jerk on my part, but you know, he, he was, he was buried in work and he was in charge of Abigail’s murder investigation and I, I just didn’t think we needed all that fuss and bother.

Makes sense.

And, You know, last night is, it’s just bottom line. I, I, I should have told RA that I was hiring you in the first place. And it, and it bothered him that I didn’t, and, and he just, he started to think, you know, why did I move up the wedding and maybe, you know, did it hash something to do with us being at, at Abe and Paulina’s.

Like I said, we just needed to clear the air and, and we, and, and we did, and now everything’s fine. So, yeah. Yeah. I’m, I’m, I’m glad. Okay. Well now that that’s settled, um, are you willing to come back to work for me?

You know, Doug, I, I could point out that you think Kristin is responsible for every bad thing that’s ever happened, but then again, you’d be right. You know what scares me? Kristin’s ferocity when it comes to that child. I mean, what about the note in the lunchbox? Yeah. Trying to flame. The child’s hatred for Chloe with, with no regard for what it might do to Rachel.

Yeah. Well, you know what? And she will do anything to get her hands on that little girl. And what about Brady? She wants him back too. Ah, that’s not gonna happen. Doc. I think Brady has finally seen the light about Kristen. I wouldn’t be so sure. It does seem to have a weakness for her. Not anymore. Not anymore.

She no longer holds any sway over Brady. Thank you again. God,

call me please. Can you please accept the fact that I am, I am doing this for Rachel and you think it’s, it’s gonna be healthy for Rachel to live in this at. You don’t think there’s gonna be a certain level of tension in this home? All right, Brady, I’m gonna have to ask you to put an end to this and perhaps you can let her know that none of this, and especially Rachel, is any of her business, just stop.

Okay, Brady. It’s fine. I’m going, you know what? I hated it, but I understood why you had to break up with me, but caving to her. I don’t think I know you anymore.

Well, hmm. Given what I heard about you and Gabby, I was a bit thrown when you came back on the. Yeah, the least a dead husband could do is stay dead. Right. But since you keep saying things along the lines of, she turns my stomach, I can safely assume you no longer have feelings for her, right?

Yeah, sure. I mean, when I died, My feelings for Gabby died with me, although I’m not entirely sure. Why

does it matter? It all worked out. You can be with Chloe now. Hmm. And you and Gabby can live here happily ever after.

Uh, start talking doctor. Are you gonna be reun with Stefano in hell? You wouldn’t dare. Oh, that’s what fell and thought. And I put a bullet in his chest. And for you, I’m thinking cutting you up into tiny pieces and fitting you to the rats. Your deranged No, no. I am determined to get the truth. One last chance, Ralph, what did you do to Stephan?

This is your Caro, isn’t it? Alright. All right. You’re right. I brainwash you.

I knew it. I knew it. I knew you might step and hate me. So now that you know it, could you move that scar away from my throat? Oh, no, no, no, no. I’ve noticed, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but you’re more forthcoming with a knife to your neck. But I told you what you wanted to know, and now I wanna know why do you really hate me that much?

Of course I do, but it wasn’t personal. I was just, they’re just following waters. Kristin Dara’s orders, Kristin White. She was hoping that if Stephan Beta, Chloe, he would come between her and Brady. She could have free to herself. She remembers at that one time Stephan was lasting it, sorry, had feelings for Ms.

Lane. She asked me to pump up his old attraction to her, and at the same time, Rekindle his initial hatred of you. This really had nothing to do with me, Ms. Hernandez, a scalper in a minute. Good old Kristin. Always get what she wants. And this time it’s to break up. Chloe and Brady. Yes. That’s what she wanted.

Wait, what does that mean? Kristen wanted to break up Brady and Chloe, but your fiance wanted to protect his investment. Lee, Alicia, he knew everything he knew all along. I had Ste on ice, but the brainwashing , it was his idea. Reef. Hi. I was actually, um, gonna call you later. Do you have time for a drink?

There’s something I’d like to ask you. Um, yeah, sure. I don’t see why not. I’m about to hit you up for a favor. Okay.

I was wondering if you’d be my best. Me, I, I know we are not exactly old friends, but I think it’d mean a lot to Gabby. I know how close the two of you are. Yeah. Wow. Uh, okay. So this means that you two have set a date. Not yet, but now that she and Stefan have signed their divorce papers, there’s nothing stopping.

Unless, of course Stephan isn’t acting of his own free will.

What are you doing here?

Hey, there was, uh, leaving your note. I heard you and Brady broke up and what? You’re here zeroing in on me when I’m down? No, I’m actually. Check on you. Make sure you’re okay. Did your sister tell you that she’s moving in with Brady? No, she didn’t. I’m surprised cuz she, she had a lot of fun telling me she was rubbing my nose in it.

Sorry. Why am. People break up every day. It’s not a big deal.

You’re enjoying this immensely, aren’t you? Oh, yes I am. I have been waiting a long time. For this whole family thing, right? Chris, let me tell you a little something that you might not know. Our daughter Rachel, she’s razor sharp. She’s old for her age. She has a very clear eye. You know, a lot of her adoration that she has for you is based upon the fact that you haven’t even been around.

You convinced her that you were taken from her by this, this, this fairytale villainist, but you. Romantic figure. Just a, an illusion of what a mother is supposed to be. And it’s worked. It’s worked Mainly because she doesn’t even know who you really are.

I mean, is this going someplace? Yeah. Rachel loves my dad and Marlena, and if you try to pull the crap with them that you pulled with, It’s gonna register Kristin, and it’s gonna register in time with Rachel, and she’s gonna realize that you only give a damn about yourself. So I would rethink this family thing.

I would rethink spending a lot of time with Rachel. That might be a tactical era because it’s gonna be really hard, really hard for you to maintain that maternal illusion 24 7 up close and personal. As a matter of fact, I happen to think that that illusion is not gonna hold up. The second your daughter looks you dead in the eyes and says, you know what, mom?

No, are you done? Yeah. Yeah. I’m just giving you some food for thought. Okay, good, good, good. Brady, cuz I’m gonna give you the ground rules. Don’t you ever, ever question my relationship with my daughter again, and don’t you ever forget that I have the upper hand permanently. If I want us to be a family, we are going to be a family.

And if I wanna to live here, we are going to live. Because as only you and I know my lane and her lady friends are gonna need more doses of that serum or they will die. Oh, sweetheart, don’t look so put out.

You see couples fight and then they kiss and then they make up. And they do get on with their lives.

Well, can you ask her to come back? Well, thanks for nothing.

The model thought the shoot was canceled and she got on a plane back to new. I have to get these photos done for Bella Magazine today. Brady and Chloe are gonna kill me.

Do it yourself. What? You know, like you’re the best one I’ve ever worked with. Trust me. Sounds like Gabby told you about her, um, theory that Ralph somehow brainwashed. Mm. . Yeah, that’s right. Hmm. I think it’s just, uh, wishful thinking or a wounded ego on her part. Sure. It’s hard for her to, I accept how Stephan feels about her now.

Well, I guess we’ll be fine out soon enough. What do you mean? I mean that J is grilling raw as we speak.

No, no. Lee wouldn’t do that. Come now, do you think he’s too high minded? No, he wouldn’t do that to me. But he did do that to you. He wants you to himself. He didn’t want the risk losing you to Stephan to the extent that he tried to murder him in his sleep. Papa, he realized Kristin was about to let that happen.

He pitched the idea of brainwashing him and Kristin climbed on board with it.

Okay. Okay. I can’t think about all of that right now. Right now what is important is for you to, to take it back. The brainwashing. Oh, funny you should say that cuz it happens. I’ve already created an antidote. In that box, wouldn’t it be ironic in your fury you had destroyed it too? Get it. Get it.

One dose of this and Stephan will be back to normal.

I’d imagine your encounter with Kristin was pretty rough. She’s not exactly a gracious winner. You can say that again. She’s not exactly a gracious winner.

I mean, it’s hard enough that Brady broke up with me, and I understand that he was doing that for Rachel, but to let Kristen move in with him, It’s sickening.

I just wish I could get on a plane and get the hell out of Salem.

Right here, I got an idea. Oh, where are you going?

You know, shouldn’t I be carrying you across a threshold or so? Oh, hi. Hi. Oh my God, dad, I was, I was gonna call you Mar home. Oh, . I’ve never been so happy to be anywhere in my life. So let’s get you into bed then. Come on. Nope, nope. You know, I just wanna, I wanna sit right here and enjoy the fact that nobody’s walking in and sing.

How are you feeling today, ? That I, I, um, I didn’t know that. Um, there’s something I have to tell you. What is it? Ernie Brady? Do you know where La Marlena puts the, oh, John Marlena, welcome home.

How I look

that bad, huh? I know. You, you, you look great. Did I? I was just, you know, trying to figure out how am I gonna shoot the dress? That’s knockout, isn’t it the right words? For sure. Um, hey, can you stand over here and let me a few sample shots.

Oh, oh, . Sorry. Nervous. Oh my God. Yeah.

Well, I hope this is a kinda like riding a bicycle. I knew it. Camera loves you. Yes’, one thing.

It’s perfect. Hey.

Well, Marlena, you look so much better. I mean, back at the hospital, you really did look like you were on death store. What are you doing here? I am surprised that they let you home so soon. I asked you a. What? Why are you here? Oh, Brady, do you wanna tell them or should I

what? Saw this, you said you wanted to get away, but we are both tied to our jobs, so I thought I would recreate Miami. I think we did that time in Doug’s place. Remember? It’s kind of hard to forget. Yeah. Well, you need to relax now even more than you did then, Stephan. I, I, I, I appreciate this, but I’m sorry I’m in, I’m really in a terrible mood.

Okay. So being in a bad mood. On a beach with a margarita. Salton knows Salt

Gabby’s at the lab right now. I can’t believe you let her go there by herself. She didn’t ask my permission. I I, I’ve gotta get over there. How much you need the address right? Text it to me. Will you? Ga Gabby. Oh, I was, um, just, just coming to. I was talking to roll, you know, re just told me, Gabby, what did he say?

He said Gabby, what did RO say? Um, I’m sorry, I lost my train of thought there for a second. Um, he said that he didn’t do anything to turn stuff in against me and for some weird reason. Honestly believe him.

Mr. Shield was right. I’ll be better off than Jakarta. At least there I won’t have. Luda takes barging in on me whenever they feel like. And that Hernandez woman was the craziest as all . Thank God I had that vial of CRS 17. She won’t remember a thing. Gabby. No one, especially you ever believes Ralph. Well, I held a scalpel to his throat and he still said he didn’t do anything.

Okay? And if you have to hold a scalpel into someone’s throat, you shouldn’t tell a cop about it. You believe it? Yes. Yes I do. And I think it’s for the best. Makes moving on a lot easier. I’m so glad to hear you say that. Speaking of which, I just asked RA to be my best man at our wedding. Oh, that is a great idea.

I’m actually still waiting for an answer. It would be my.

Thank you ra. Mm-hmm. . I hope that, uh, our marriage is as happy as yours and Nicole’s.

Yeah. Oh, Eric, these are great. Well, I wasn’t lying. You still have what it takes? Well, after all these years, We still make a great team.

Ah, you like that one? Yeah. We’ll star that one.

So how’s your drink? Actually, it’s kind of perfect. Hmm.

Oh, I almost forgot.

There. What do you think?

I think this is the nicest thing anyone’s done for me in a while. Hmm. Thank you S Stephen.

You’re very welcome.

Cheers,

so. You’re going to be living here with us? Mm-hmm. . I mean, isn’t that great? Oh, I better get back to the kitchen. I wouldn’t wanna burn our first dinner together as family,

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Brooke sighs ]

[ Knocking on door ]

Brooke: Ridge.

Brooke: Tell me aspen was a mistake. That you got caught up. Just tell me you’re coming back home.

Steffy: The day has finally come. You and dad are back together.

Taylor: I know. I’m so happy. I– it feels like everything is just– it’s just right, you know?

Steffy: Because it is. Everything’s right. I mean, the only thing that’s wrong right now is dad not being here. I can’t believe he’s back at brooke’s again.

Taylor: No, no. Honey, I mean, you know, he had to do it. It was the right thing to do. And he had to get some stuff, anyway.

Steffy: Yeah.

Taylor: We trust him, remember?

Liam: Hey, I brought your favorite, carbs and carbs.

[ Bill chuckles ] Thank you.

Liam: Yeah. You know, ridge always comes back.

Bill: Until he doesn’T.

Liam: Yeah, but this isn’t the first time he’s left brooke.

Bill: Well, it’s gonna be the last time. Forrester is a fool, and brooke isn’t going to put up with him anymore.

Liam: See, I wouldn’t do that if I were you. I wouldn’t count ridge and brooke–

Bill: That relationship is finished, liam. And it’s the greatest thing that ever happened for brooke.

Liam: The greatest? You want to unpack that for me?

Bill: I’m gonna step in.

Hope: I can’t believe that you and dollar bill got into it. The fact that he came over to your apartment uninvited and then threw his fake money in your face. Dad, I’m– I’m sorry. That’s so disrespectful.

Deacon: Disrespectful? I don’t know. There’s another way of looking at it. I mean, he came all the way down to my place in person just to tell me to stay away from your mother. That tells me that he respects the possibility that I got a chance. And it also tells me that he’s worried.

Bill: The convict actually thinks he has a shot with brooke–

Liam: My father-in-law thinks he has a shot at brooke.

Bill: Another loser unworthy of her.

Liam: All right, well, that loser and brooke happen to have a daughter together. And why are we talking about deacon right now?

Bill: Because he’s dumb enough to think that brooke is gonna take him back.

Deacon: So, how’s your mom holdin’ up?

Hope: She’s heartbroken. It’s hard to believe that her marriage is actually ending.

Deacon: You know, I hate to hear that, I really do. But I– I’m not surprised. I mean, it’s classic forrester. Textbook. Is he really going back to taylor?

Hope: Yeah, it looks that way. None of us are really even sure as to why, but one thing is certain, that steffy’s interference certainly didn’t help.

Steffy: I can’t help but pity brooke a little.

Taylor: Yeah, she must be devastated.

Steffy: That is really nice of you, that you care about brooke’s well-being.

Taylor: Well, I mean, I just– I understand. I understand. I’ve been there many times.

Both: Because of her.

Steffy: You know what, this isn’t about brooke. This is about you and dad and your love for each other.

Steffy: So don’t let that man-go. Okay?

Taylor: Oh, my god. That was brilliant.

[ Both laughing ]

Ridge: It was never my intention to hurt you, logan.

Brooke: Ridge. Look, I know you still love me. I know that. So whatever this is about, we can work through it–

Ridge: I’m here to pick up some of my things.

Brooke: No. I am not gonna give up on us. And you never even told me what this is about, anyway.

Brooke: Ridge, please, just look at me. What is it? Why are you doing this?

Bill: Ridge did brooke a favor by cutting himself loose.

Liam: No, he didn’T. She’s totally shattered right now.

Bill: Yeah, and nobody hates seeing brooke in pain more than I do. So, I’m gonna put a stop to it. Right here. All right? Ridge and deacon can both hit the road.

Liam: So, to be clear, the way that you’re gonna be there for brooke is just by stepping in and taking over?

Bill: It’s what I do.

Liam: Fair enough. All right well, what about katie?

Bill: I’ve tried, and tried, as you well know. She wants nothing to do with me. Katie is moving on. Well, I’m moving on as well. For the woman who’s always accepted me for who I am.

Liam: All right, but you don’t think that brooke could use a little… space?

Bill: I am what’s best for brooke. And if that clown, deacon, thinks that he has a chance with her, he’s an even bigger moron than I realized.

Deacon: I know how close you and your mom are, and I can tell you’re worried about her.

Hope: Well, it’s hard not to be.

Deacon: Has anyone asked how you’re doing? I mean, how are you doing?

Hope: I’m okay. Although, my patience is wearing out when it comes to steffy.

Deacon: Is that causing any problems for you and liam? I mean, he… he and steffy share a child, so–

Hope: No, no. It’s nothing like that, it’s just… there’s been a lot of stress… overall, especially with the situation with douglas.

Deacon: Are there any new developments on that front?

Hope: Well, he’s with thomas. He’s happy.

Deacon: He’s happy. Are you happy about that, or–

Hope: Dad.

Deacon: Oh, hey, okay.

Hope: Let’s drop it.

Deacon: Pinning it.

Hope: Yeah. But I will say, though, between you and me… maybe a part of me is relieved with this whole situation with mom, because she’s been struggling for a while with ridge to try to make their marriage work. And maybe… maybe it isn’t what’s best for her.

Taylor: Okay. Yes. I love that. That’s awe– thank you. No, no, no, I got it. Thank you. Bye-bye. Bye, bye, bye, bye.

Steffy: Was that dad?

Taylor: Uh, no. No, he is still dealing with the brooke situation.

Steffy: Oh, okay. Do you want me to go into the other room? If it’s a private conversation, I respect that. I can– I can just go.

Taylor: No, no, you saw me getting off the phone. I was like, “bye!”

Steffy: You, like, seemed to… rush off. So, I can– I can just leave, it’s fine.

Taylor: I did? Really? I–

Steffy: Yeah. You, uh, you– you did.

Taylor: Hm. I didn’t realize that.

Steffy: Were you talking to a patient? Like, you’re acting, uh, I don’t know, a little weird.

Taylor: Me?

Steffy: What is going on with you?

Steffy: Are you okay?

Taylor: Yes, I’m– I’m– I’m fine. I’M… fine. I– I, um, I did a thing.

Steffy: You did a thing?

Taylor: A “thing” thing. A surprise thing. And I really hope your dad is as happy as I am about it.

Brooke’s voice: I’d like

to report a child in danger.

His father, thomas forester,

is unstable.

He has a knife.

Brooke: I know you, ridge.

I know there’s something

that you’re not saying.

And I wish you would just…

just say it. Just–

Ridge: Why– why are you

doing this?

Why are you– why are you

pretending that you don’t know

what this is?

Brooke: I don’T.

Ridge: Can you just

be honest and– and say it?

I just need

to hear you say it.

Brooke: It’s me, standing here. Ridge. Your logan. Your wife.

[ Sighs ] Please, just talk to me. I mean, we’ve survived so many things through the years, and we can get through this, too. I think it’d be good to just get it off your chest. We really need to be open and honest.

Ridge: Yeah. I just want to get some of my things.

Ridge: You’ll always be in my heart, but I’m– I’m moving on with taylor.

Liam: You– [Chuckles] Dad, you– I think you need to chill out a little bit and give brooke a minute to breathe.

Bill: I love brooke, liam. I do. And I respect her. I’m not gonna put any pressure on her.

Liam: Okay, that’s good to hear, because this is a lot for her, right? Losing ridge is a huge change in her life.

Bill: A change for the better.

Deacon: Listen, your mom’s gonna need people around her who really care about her, and I– I just want you to know she’s lucky to have you as a daughter. And so am I.

Hope: Thank you. I mean, you know I’ve always supported mom. Even defended her marriage to ridge. But, I don’t know. If he can just so easily and so callously walk away from her without any explanation and go back to taylor, then, you know, maybe it wasn’t meant to be after all.

Deacon: Well, it’s a safe bet that it wasn’T.

Hope: Yeah, well, if he acts like that, maybe he doesn’t deserve her. Not like you.

Deacon: Me?

Hope: Come on, dad, we all know how you feel about mom and you, would be there for her.

Deacon: Yeah, I’d be there in a minute. I mean, of course I would.

Hope: Yeah, well, guess what? You couldn’t because of ridge.

Deacon: Because ridge banned me from the premises.

Hope: Mm-hm.

Deacon: What?

Hope: Why don’t we go pay mom a visit and, I don’t know, maybe you could tell her how you feel.

Steffy: A surprise.

Taylor: Yeah.

Steffy: For dad?

Taylor: Yeah. Yeah, a– a– a big surprise.

Steffy: Mom, what did you do?

Taylor: Well, I– I just, um, I stepped into our future with something from our past.

Steffy: Uh-huh, okay, something from your past…

Taylor: Yeah. Yeah, okay, uh, I cannot tell you, I’m not going to say anything.

Steffy: Okay. Can I guess?

Taylor: You’re never gonna guess. Okay, one guess.

Steffy: Are you flying him to saint thomas? You’re gonna do, like, the whole romantic proposal? That’s what it is!

Taylor: No. No, it’s not. But that’s a really fun idea, too.

Steffy: It’s a good idea.

Taylor: It’s a really good idea.

Steffy: What else could it be, then?

Taylor: No, no, I am not gonna tell you. I’m not gonna tell you. I don’t wanna ruin the surprise that I– I really, really just hope that ridge is as excited as I am. I’m gonna text him right now.

Steffy: Okay, well, now that you’re not telling me, I’m gonna say, this whole vibe, I’m really loving. To see you so… joyful and full of excitement.

[ Taylor sighs ] Yeah. Thank you. It’s called love. You know?

Taylor: Do you have a blindfold?

Brooke: Ridge. Don’T. Ridge, please. Just, stay here with me.

Ridge: This is hard enough as it is. Listen, we can’t do this anymore. We can’t keep hurting each other. So, I talked to carter and he’s gonna– he’s gonna get some paperwork together.

Brooke: Some paperwork?

Ridge: For the annulment.

Brooke: Annulment?

Ridge: I– I think it’s the right way to handle things.

Brooke: What? What are you even talking about? You want to just pretend that our marriage never existed? You want to trample on our vows? And, what about the commitment we made to each other, and– and to our family?

Brooke: And everything that we built? Everything. All of the beautiful memories we’ve had here in this home. I– I don’t even know what you’re talking about, ridge. None of this makes sense. What happened? What changed things for you?

Ridge: Can you just– can–

Ridge: Carter is gonna be in touch.

Ridge: I’ll always love you.

[ Brooke sighs ] Ridge. Wait. Please.

[ Sighs ] (Vo) no matter what type of severe asthma you have,…

Taylor: Can you see?

Ridge: Uh, no.

Taylor: No? No, okay, step down

Ridge: Maybe because you told me to come down the P.C.H. And then you blindfolded me.

Ridge: So, that’s why I can’t see.

Taylor: Yeah, well, you look very sexy in that blindfold. Up.

Ridge: Okay.

Taylor: Now that– shh. You’re gonna ruin the surprise.

Ridge: Surprise? Ah, you know how I love surprises.

Ridge: Last time you surprised me was that roller-skating party. Ah, that was a big hit.

Taylor: Yeah, yeah. Yep, yep, I’m gonna just tell you the same thing that I told you then, just roll with it.

Ridge: Roll with it?

Taylor: Roll…

Ridge: I don’t wanna roll with it. I– I– I’ve been kidnapped and I feel like somebody’s gonna throw me off the malibu pier.

Taylor: Oh, no, you guessed what I was gonna do. Ah, see you later.

Ridge: Oh, god.

[ Both chuckle ]

Taylor: Okay, take it off. Your blindfold.

[ Laughing ]

Ridge: Oh, okay. Good start.

Ridge: The beach house.

Taylor: Mm-hm. Yup.

Ridge: What are we doing here?

Taylor: I don’t know, just being reminded of our, of our time in this magical little home on the ocean.

Ridge: Yeah. I remember. Those were the best times of my life.

Ridge: Mm. Does wyatt know we broke into his house?

Taylor: Ooh, it’s his old house.

[ Keys jingling ]

Taylor: You see, um, even before aspen, I was looking for a place to live ’cause, you know, I was sick of walking in on steffy and finn in mid-makeout. But then when you asked me, or, you told me that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with me, I, I just thought–

Ridge: Did you buy this place?

Taylor: I did. I just thought that, it would be great if we had, an amazing little place together– hm.

Taylor: Welcome home, ridge.

[ Door opening ]

Hope: Hi. I didn’t see ridge’s car in the drive, so…

Brooke: Yeah, no. Ridge is gone. He’s leaving me and going back to taylor.

Deacon: I’m sorry, brooke.

Hope: Are– are you okay?

Brooke: I’m confused. I mean, I– I don’t know why this happened. I don’t know why he suddenly just up and left. Me. His wife. So that he could be with taylor. He wants to put that other family back together.

Hope: Maybe that’s where he belongs. With them.

Brooke: How could you say that?

Hope: Well, it’s just, maybe he’s on to something. Maybe there’s something beautiful about rebuilding a family.

[ Brooke clears throat ]

Deacon: I think I’m gonna have to agree with our very wise, very smart daughter. O-okay. All right. We’re, uh, we’re gonna do this, right?

[ Clearing throat ] I know that this might seem, like, it’s out of the blue.

Deacon: But I’ve been dreamin’ about this for a very long time. It’s kept me going. You’ve kept me going. Both of you have. You’ve always been the one, brooke. And look, if ridge is off with taylor, then maybe it’s time that we, repair our family. I mean, look what we did together, you and me. Look, we– we made this amazing, exceptional woman. And if we could– if we can do that, imagine the– the magic and the love that we could have if we would just give it a chance. I– I— know I don’t deserve you, but then again, nobody does. You are the most phenomenal woman I have ever met. And I promise you that if you take this journey with me, I will prove my love to you every single day. And I will cherish, and honor you until my last breath. And you’ll never have to worry about my feelings, or my loyalty. And all you have to do, is just say yes. Just… say you’ll marry me.

Young & The Restless Transcript

Y&R logo

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Jack: So there is more to the story of your years in L.A. Than you admitted.

Diane: Yes. And I-I realized that I — I can’t keep hiding it from you.

Jack: So tell me this shameful secret. What is it? What happened?

Diane: Well, while I lived there, tucker and I did cross paths.

Jack: I see.

Diane: But it wasn’t anything that I wanted or — or that i planned. But he — he found out things about me.

Jack: Like what?

Diane: Things that… I had to do to survive. Things I’m not proud of. But, jack, before I tell you, please, you have to believe me that I had no choice.

Tucker: Nikki? Hello? Ah, there she is. I’m so happy you called.

Nikki: Tucker.

Tucker: I hope this invitation means that you and i are — we’re on good terms. Like, we’re — there’s no grudges between us, no ill will between us.

Nikki: Well, that all depends on what happens going forward, since you seem to be staying in town for a while.

Tucker: I might, I might. I’m having a ball getting reacquainted with all the, um — what’d you call them? — The respectable families of genoa city? And then, of course, to be invited here to the ranch, to sit with the grand dame of the community, well, that’s — that means a lot.

Nikki: That title does not belong to me. There is only one grand dame of genoa city. Your mother.

Tucker: Ah, yes. The duchess. Yeah. Very respectable. Sorry. Did I offend you?

Nikki: No, no, not at all. But I’m afraid you have misunderstood my invitation. This is not a social call. We will not be having tea and chitchatting. There’s someone I want you to meet. Tucker mccall… talia morgan.

Tucker: Ah.

Lauren: So, hey, how is your new product line going? Marchetti home.

Phyllis: Oh, it’s great. I’m killing. You know, not that I mean to brag, but I am killing.

Lauren: You don’t mean to brag, but you will.

Phyllis: Yeah. I wish the other reason why i was at marchetti was going as well as the actual job.

Lauren: Uh, yeah, getting rid of diane? Don’t tell me that has stalled.

Phyllis: It’s stalled, but it’s progressing. I mean, kyle and summer, they’re in costa rica. Now is the best time to get diane out of here.

Lauren: Oh, are you sure about that?

Phyllis: Yeah. I mean, when they come home, they’ll be in such marital bliss, they won’t even notice she’s not around.

Lauren: I don’t know about that, because from what I’ve seen about kyle, he has fallen for his mother’s reinvention, and he has fully accepted her into his life.

Phyllis: Yeah, I know he has. I can dream.

Lauren: Yes, you can. But you know what? I want you to get rid of diane because she is a sore spot in my household, too. And you know me. I can hold a grudge like the best of them.

Phyllis: Oh, and you know what? I love that about you.

Lauren: Well, thank you. Thank you. It’s michael. Michael has too much empathy. He has too much understanding for the human frailty.

Phyllis: What is wrong with him? Seriously, she has done me so wrong. She fakes her own death, she made her son believe that she was dead. I mean, that’s not just human frailty. That’s evil.

Jack: All the times I asked if there was more to your story. How many openings did I give you to tell the truth? Other people accused you of terrible things. I defended you.

Diane: I know, I know. And I — I feel awful that I put you in that position. But please, jack, just hear what I have to say before you pass judgment.

Jack: You want me to hear more of your excuses?

Diane: No, I want you to hear the truth.

[ Sighs ] I arrived in L.A. With the world thinking that diane jenkins was dead. The first thing I needed was a new identity, and I was able to find someone who would help me create a new persona.

Jack: Oh, how convenient for you.

Diane: Jack, I had no choice. In order to start over, I needed to become someone else. And there are people who do that sort of thing.

Jack: Oh, yeah — criminals.

Diane: What they do is illegal. But I needed a new social security number and driver’s license and birth certificate.

And taylor jenson was born. Or should I say reborn? To get that kind of documentation, you clearly had to assume the life of a dead woman.

Diane: It was the only thing I could think of to resume my life — my new life. I didn’t want to break the law. Not then and not now.

Jack: Stop with the excuses. Tell me what you did. And tonight’s winning numbers are 18, 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.

But they often have higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage. Now, let’s take a look at humana’s medicare advantage plans.

Diane: Shortly after I got settled in L.A. As taylor jenson, I met a man. He was charming and attractive. His name was jeremy stark. He, um… he sensed something broken in me. And I didn’t tell him where I’d come from, just that I’d been involved in a series of bad relationships. Which wasn’t a lie. He didn’t press for details. He just wanted me to know that my life could be good again.

Diane: Thanks for a lovely afternoon.

Jeremy: You’ll learn that every afternoon in california is lovely. Even when it rains, it’s a lovely rain.

Diane: Oh, the stroll up the beach in venice, and watching the dolphins play… fabulous lunch in malibu was… it was perfect.

Jeremy: You deserve it. It’s a big place, and I can’t wait to explore the rest of it with you, taylor. Hey. What’s the matter?

Diane: Uh, it’s just… it’s just been so long since I’ve had a — a good day. It feels relaxing and invigorating all at the same time.

Jeremy: Whatever happened to you, it’s in the past. You have your whole life ahead of you. You need to enjoy it. And I’m that person that’s going to make it happen.

Diane: He was kind and gentle and — and thoughtful. You know, I was not looking for a serious relationship, but I fell hard.

[ Chuckles ] You know, anyone who knows me probably wouldn’t be surprised. I… he was a wealthy jetsetter. And I do have a type.

Jack: So, was he the man in the bentley?

Tucker: Yeah, I know, ms. Morgan. By reputation only.

Talia: Likewise. But I’d like to begin by asking you a few questions about your future plans.

Tucker: Sure. You can ask me anything you want. Got nothing to hide.

Nikki: Well, I know that journalists like to speak to their subjects in private, so I’ll leave you to it.

Talia: Shall we sit?

Tucker: Yeah.

Talia: So, now that you don’t have nikki newman to impress, maybe you can give me some real answers.

Tucker: Fire away. Just don’t ask about the rumor.

Talia: What rumor?

Tucker: Oh, there’s this nasty rumor going around that the real reason I came to town is to try to convince victor newman to build a rocket with me so we can launch ourselves into space. You know, it’s what billionaires are doing these days. But I probably should not have said anything, should I? Because you’re going to do an article with the headline “mccall and newman shoot themselves into space.”

Talia: You should be so lucky. You have history with the newman family, going head to head with victor in business and personally.

Tucker: That’s correct. That’s excellent research on your part.

Talia: So if there is bad blood between you and the family, why do you think nikki newman encouraged me to write a profile of you? And now please welcome ana montoya.

Tucker: Well, look, if you want to write about me, I’m happy to accept the free publicity. But you said you wanted to learn about my current plans. And the newmans do not even remotely enter into what I have going now, so, uh… they’re in the past. If you want to talk about the present, let’s do it.

Talia: Fair enough. So do you have answers regarding why you’re divesting and liquefying so many of your assets? Are you downsizing? Getting ready to retire? Or perhaps do you have a major move in the works?

Lauren: You know, I am just so surprised that jack seems to have accepted diane back into his life wholeheartedly like nothing has ever happened.

Phyllis: Well, he was taking kyle’s lead. I mean, but he’s accepted her back. He was. I think jack is seeing diane for who she really is. I mean, I don’t know. I just sense he’s being polite now, but he’s definitely holding back.

Lauren: Are you sure about that? She’s been trying to worm her way back into his life through kyle and harrison. They’re now working in the same building. She’s coming at him from all sides.

Phyllis: I know, I know. But before I came here, I overheard jack in his office, and he said that his doubts are starting to reignite regarding diane.

Lauren: Oh. That’s a step in the right direction. What brought that on?

Phyllis: Ashley.

[ Chuckles ] It seems that there’s a diane-tucker connection.

Lauren: What? I haven’t heard about this.

Phyllis: There’s a theory going around that the two of them were connected up in los angeles.

Lauren: Wow.

Phyllis: Yeah.

Lauren: And you subscribe to this theory?

Phyllis: For sure. For sure I do. I mean, it’s diane. I mean, ashley told this to jack. He thought it was a rumor. He brushed it off, but it definitely resonated. Now he has doubts about diane. I mean, we just need to give him a little nudge in the right direction.

Diane: Jeremy was an international financier. He flew around the world finding opportunities and making deals.

Jeremy: Well, I didn’t think the deal was going to close, but you are now looking at the third-largest distributor of automotive parts in eastern europe.

Diane: Wow! That must explain all the paparazzi outside.

[ Both laugh ]

Jeremy: I know, it doesn’t sound like much, but it’s huge.

Diane: No, no. Congratulations.

[ Glasses clink ] Between this and that australian land you acquired last week, you are on a roll. You’re going to spoil me with all this good champagne.

Jeremy: I hope so. Mmm.

Diane: Jeremy, what is this?

Jeremy: Open it and find out.

Diane: Oh, it’s — it’s lovely, but what is it?

Jeremy: It’s a private island. I’m going there tonight for a meeting, and I’d like you to join me there tomorrow.

Diane: Oh. That sounds amazing, but I — I can’t go on such short notice.

Jeremy: [ Scoffs ] Why not?

Diane: Oh, come on. I know the circles you travel in. I’m not prepared for that. I don’t — I don’t have anything to wear. And even my luggage is all beat up.

Jeremy: Oh, that doesn’t matter. You look fabulous as is, and you know that. But if you’re concerned, you can reach out to my assistant, francesca. Tell her what you need. She’ll do all the shopping. All you have to do is be ready for my car to pick you up at noon tomorrow.

Diane: It was a whirlwind. It was a fantasy come true. It was wonderful and romantic, and it was the first of many. He traveled a lot for business, and he would invite me to join him on these spur-of-the-moment trips. And he took care of all the arrangements.

Jack: Very generous of him.

Diane: Yeah. For, uh… for the first time, I felt taken care of. Like, um… like I had found something that had been missing in previous relationships. But, um, what I didn’t realize until it was too late… is that was his trick. Dupixent helps you du more with less asthma.

Jack: I’m not sure i understand how showering someone with gifts and exotic travel is a trick.

Diane: I always flew alone. I met jeremy at the location. We never traveled together, and I didn’t think much of it at first. He said he wanted to get there early so he could get the boring business stuff out of the way so that we could enjoy ourselves.

Jack: And that wasn’t true?

Diane: Not exactly. It went on for months like this. Until I discovered that he was using me as a mule.

Jack: Wait. He had you smuggling drugs?

Diane: No, not drugs. Cash. Either his assistant or his driver would hide bundles of cash in my suitcases when I wasn’t looking. And then jeremy would remove them when we got to the location and deposit them in a local bank. Millions and millions of dollars, jack. He was sheltering illegal funds and using me to do it.

Jack: And you knew nothing about it?

Diane: You know what? I hear that skeptical tone in your voice, but, no, I didn’t know. I didn’t know until a trip to barbados. Jeremy was late meeting me at the airport, and I was just looking in my suitcase for something, and I saw stacks of 100-dollar bills, and I-I put them back. And later, when he thought I was taking a nap, I saw him remove them, and then I followed him to a bank. I realized what was happening. I was shocked… and devastated. But I waited until we were safely back in L.A. Before confronting him.

Jeremy: Going on a trip tomorrow. You up for it?

Diane: Where to?

Jeremy: Mm. Someplace special. I know you’ll enjoy it. I promise. Just be ready by 3:00.

Diane: Okay. I just have one question.

Jeremy: What is it?

Diane: How much cash do you plan to hide in my suitcase this time? Should I bring the carry-on or take two large suitcases? I — I just thought it would help if I knew so I could plan. I trusted you, jeremy. I even thought I was falling in love with you. But you’ve been using me as a money-laundering mule.

Jeremy: You’re overreacting, taylor. I’m sorry. The fantasy has been shattered. But this relationship does not have to end.

Diane: Yes, it does. It’s over. I’m not going to do your dirty work for you. You’ve been putting me in danger.

Jeremy: Calm down.

Diane: No.

Jeremy: I’ve invested a lot in you.

Diane: Oh, my god.

You’ve taken me on a couple of trips. That doesn’t buy you my loyalty to commit crimes for you. I won’t tell the authorities about you, but we are done.

Jeremy: We are not done. Social security numbers of dead people don’t come cheap.

Diane: I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Jeremy: The man who arranged your new identity? He works for. Now you do, too, diane jenkins.

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Jeremy: I can imagine that there are a lot of people who’d be very interested to know that you are alive and well. So, if you don’t want that kind of trouble, you’ll keep doing what you’ve been doing.

Diane: He was nothing but a con man. My meeting him wasn’t a coincidence. He never cared about me. It was just part of his system. You know, his — his way of recruiting people that he could control. He had all the leverage. He could expose my lies and tell the world that I was alive. Jack, I was trapped.

Lauren: Honey, I’m worried about you.

Phyllis: Why?

Lauren: Because if jack finds out that you are any way connected with diane’s downfall, this whole thing’s gonna backfire. He’s gonna be so angry. Especially considering what it could do to kyle.

Phyllis: Boo! I made my peace with that. I’m resigned to him being mad at me again. It is more important to me that my friend and my daughter know the truth about diane. It is more important to me that I am protecting them. Jack should thank me for being such a great friend.

Lauren: And you are sure this is the best way to handle it?

Phyllis: Yes, it’s the only way. Lauren, it’s the only way. Come on. If it keeps jack away from that she-devil and it keeps my daughter safe, this is the right thing.

Kyle: I think I still have sand in my hair. Can you check it for me?

Summer: Let’s see. Oh, yeah. You have sand everywhere. That shower did nothing. You’ve got some color on your face, too?

Kyle: I was worried the spf was too low and… ooh! I think you got a little too much sun.

Summer: Where?

Kyle: Right here. And… ooh, right here.

Summer: [ Laughs ]

Kyle: And right here.

Summer: Mmm. Was that supposed to help me with my sunburn?

Kyle: Mmm, I’m just trying to decide where I should rub some aloe vera. But if you don’t like it, then…

Summer: Oh, hey, wait. I didn’t say stop.

Kyle: Mm, mm-hmm.

Summer: I think you, uh — I think you missed a spot.

Kyle: Oh.

Summer: Right here.

Kyle: Oh. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Summer: And here.

Kyle: Oh, okay.

Summer: [ Laughs ] And right here.

Kyle: Oh, yeah. Yeah. If you still have symptoms of moderate

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Even though some

things are far away,

Jack: So how did you get out of his well-laid trap?

Diane: I guess you could call it fate. I continued carrying money out of the country for him. We — we continued the trips. You know, I-I pretended I was his lover, but I couldn’t stand to be in the same room with him. And then, one day, he demanded that we meet at our usual spot.

Diane: Why do we have to meet here? I mean, I’ll do the work, but can’t we quit the charade that we’re a couple, especially in L.A.?

Jeremy: Sit down. I’m about to be arrested.

Diane: How do you know?

Jeremy: A friend of mine tipped me off from the justice department.

Diane: Oh, my god. Do you know when this is gonna happen?

Could happen next week, could happen tomorrow… could happen before I finish this drink. Now, I don’t think you’re in danger because you’re a small fish. But they could use you to get to a bigger fish. That can’t happen. Do you understand? If they question you, you keep your mouth shut. Got it? I’ll do the same for you.

Diane: But what if —

[ Sirens approaching ]

Jeremy: Get out of here. Now!

Jack: Wow. Lucky you.

Diane: I didn’t feel lucky. I was terrified. His whole operation came to light in the investigation. The trial and the preparation took four years, and I was on pins and needles the whole time. I was — I was certain there would be a knock at my door and — and I would be implicated.

Jack: How were you not?

Diane: Well, the fact that we never flew together made it hard to connect us. But it was a huge wake-up call. I was determined after this experience to get my life on the right track. Jack… I need you to believe me. Everything I have told you about that part of my journey is true. I always… I always thought that, um… you know, a rich husband would solve all my problems. But after jeremy, I realized that’s just wrong, that I needed to take care of myself. And that’s what drove me to get the help I needed. I mean, I swore that — that if I got out of this mess that I would do everything in my power to reconnect with kyle, who I had missed every day. And that’s what kept me going for years.

Jack: And I guess I could assume by your being here a free woman that you managed to evade the law.

Diane: That’s right. Once jeremy was convicted and in prison, I was able to relax and focus on getting back to genoa city and getting back into kyle’s life. And that’s when tucker showed up.

Tucker: I wouldn’t read too much into my latest maneuvers. I’m buying and selling and investing and divesting all the time. The business world moves fast, and so do I. Are you sure I can’t get you something?

Talia: No, thanks. That is another non-answer.

Tucker: Ah. Okay. Um… let’s say I’m clearing a path.

Talia: To what?

Tucker: Who knows? Sometimes you just have to, uh…make room for whatever will be revealed.

Talia: Did you learn that at the ashram?

Tucker: I did. Very good.

[ Chuckles ] Excellent research on your part yet again.

Talia: So, what have you been doing since you left thailand? I know you spent some time in L.A. Did you have business there? Do you own a home? What do you enjoy doing when in town? My readers would love to know.

Tucker: Well, uh… I, uh — I go to the hollywood walk of fame and venice beach and the capitol records building and brown derby. All the hotspots, you know?

Talia: The brown derby has been closed for about 30 years.

Tucker: Is that right? Wow. That would explain the slow service.

Talia: All right. I have things to do. If you ever do get serious, I would love to interview you.

Tucker: [ Chuckles ] Wow. How quaint. Well, in this case, I’ll definitely be in touch. Take care. You can come out now, nikki. Would you like to explain what that was all about?

[School bells]

Diane: Tucker was the man in the bentley. That’s the one thing I lied to you about. We were connected in L.A., But it was just a random run-in.

Jack: When was this?

Diane: About six months before I started reaching out to you. Tucker recognized me immediately, and I was hoping he would drop it, but of course he didn’T.

Jack: That wouldn’t be his style, no.

Diane: No, not at all. He, um — he was able to connect the dots because he knew people who had done business with jeremy. And somehow he uncovered evidence of my crimes that the feds had overlooked. But he promised that he would keep quiet if we helped each other.

Jack: You were being blackmailed from two different directions.

Diane: Yeah.

Jack: I’m almost afraid to ask. What did he want from you in return?

Diane: Tucker was considering a return to genoa city to rekindle things with ashley.

Jack: He’s a fool.

Diane: Yes, and he wanted a way in with the abbotts. And that’s when he found allie.

Jack: Wait. Tucker’s the one who discovered keemo and allie?

Diane: That’s right. He thought I could be of help to him here, so he offered me the information about the house as a way for me to reconnect with you and kyle.

Jack: And what was he expecting from you in return?

Diane: [ Sighs ] Well, he — he wanted me to keep tabs on ashley. You know, her romantic status, work, travel plans.

Jack: Wait. You originally came to town to spy on my sister?

Diane: No! No, jack. Ca– can’t you see the situation I was in? I had worked so hard to turn my life around — years and years of effort and — and therapy so that I could be with my son again. This was my chance. And — and I couldn’t risk tucker revealing that I was a lie before I had a chance to do it myself. I could’ve gone to jail. And then kyle would have found out that I’d faked my death without me being able to explain it to him. So I — so I agreed to help tucker. Okay? I sold all of the expensive gifts that jeremy had given me, and I used the money to buy keemo’s house. You know everything after that.

Summer: How good are our lives right now?

Kyle: Mm. Our lives are perfect.

Summer: [ Breathes deeply ] I have loved you for so long. We’ve known each other for what feels like forever, and… all that time, I haven’t known how we were going to end up together, but…it always felt inevitable.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ] It did. And now we have everything we could ever want. We have each other, harrison, family, work. Could it get any better?

Summer: I don’t know. We both had personal issues that we had to deal with before we came here. You with adam, me with my dad and sally.

Kyle: Yeah, minor bumps in the road. That stuff barely even bothers me anymore. It was perfectly fine, and I owe that to you and harrison. I know the two of you are in my corner, so nothing else matters.

Summer: That’s so sweet. But it’s not entirely true.

Kyle: What?

Summer: Kind of hurts me to say this, but… I feel like you never felt truly whole until diane came back. And it makes sense, right? The mother you thought you lost back in your life?

Kyle: Guess I hadn’t thought about it like that. But… having her around does make me feel more at peace. I think that’s because I finally have some answers. There’s not as much uncertainty. No more unfinished business.

Summer: Mm.

Kyle: I think I was always looking for something that was just out of reach or lurking in the shadows.

Summer: And you’re not anymore?

Kyle: Mnh. That’s why I can focus on all the positive things in my life.

Summer: Well, I’m glad it’s worked out because, to be honest, when she first showed up, I was afraid it was gonna be a real mess.

[ Both laugh ]

Kyle: I know you did. But thanks for giving her the space and time to prove herself. You were supportive but never dictated how I was supposed to feel about any of it. You let me figure it out on my own. You were awesome.

Summer: Were awesome? Did I stop being awesome?

Kyle: Oh. No, no, no, no.

Summer: [ Laughs ] Okay. I didn’t think so. I — I’m still awesome. And don’t ever forget it.

Kyle: Never.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: I-I-I don’t even know what to say.

Diane: Jack, I — I was trapped, first by jeremy and then by tucker. I — I was forced to behave in ways that I would never do under normal circumstances. But it was — it was about survival. And I — and it was about my need as a mother to reconnect with my son. And I was willing to do whatever it took. Please tell me you understand. I am so sorry. But phyllis and nikki were determined to dig up dirt on me, and — and I knew that this would be discovered sooner or later. I just wanted you to hear it from me.

[ Knock on door, door opens ]

Phyllis: Hi. Uh, am I interrupting something? Is everything okay?

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Tucker: Did you expect me to believe that little song and dance there was for a real article, some puff piece about my future plans?

Nikki: What would I know about talia’s assignments?

Tucker: [ Chuckles ] Yeah. It’s funny — she was asking about my business in L.A., And it’s pretty common knowledge that most of my business is done internationally. But everyone seems very concerned about what I’m doing in los angeles. And by “everyone,” I mean you.

Nikki: I’m not sure what you’re referring to.

Tucker: Oh, nikki… I love a good cat-and-mouse game, especially with you. But I think it would be best if we just lay our cards on the table here. You and your friends have a theory that I’m somehow connected with diane jenkins. Right? So you’re siccing the reporter who did an exposé on her onto me.

Nikki: Out of respect for katherine, I want to treat you fairly.

Tucker: You sure have a funny way of showing it.

Nikki: I would like to think that you’re smart enough to avoid diane jenkins at all costs. Yet there is something in my head that tells me that there is a connection between the two of you. And you know what she did to me and my family. So you should certainly understand why I don’t want her in genoa city.

Tucker: But what does that have to do with me?

Nikki: If you are collaborating with her, I want to know why and what she is after. If she is planning to harm anybody that I care about, I will hold you personally responsible. Now, I would like to believe that if you knew something that would help me protect my loved ones, you would step up and give me the information.

Tucker: Yeah. I would really like to help, nikki, but… sorry, I can’T.

Jack: Everything is fine, phyllis. What is it you need at this exact moment?

Phyllis: Oh, it’s no hurry. None at all. Um, not important. I’ll come back at another time. Okay? Is everything okay, diane?

Diane: Yes, everything’s fine, just like jack said.

Jack: Well, I have an appointment I’m late for. We’ll continue this later.

Phyllis: I bet you’re looking forward to that. I don’t know what went down here… but it doesn’t seem too good for you.

Next week on “the young and the restless.”

Phyllis: Trust me when I say diane is at her tipping point. It’s only a matter of time before she snaps.

Nick: Newman enterprises has decided to replace you and chloe at newman media.

Adam: Are you okay?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

so beautiful. Isn’t it? There’s no rush here. You just take as much time as you want. We can… …come back tomorrow if you want. No, it’s okay. I’m ready. My god! Hello, robert. Holly? It’s me. Is it really you? Don’t tell me I look so awful that you don’t even recognize me.

[ Exhales sharply ] It’s really you.

[ Exhales sharply ] You’re the most beautiful sight in the world! Sasha: No one matching lucy’s description was brought into the E.R. Yeah. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I don’t know. On the one hand, it means she’s not hurt. But where is she? Ever since I got that call last night, I’ve been worrying about her nonstop. Me too. Why would the police be looking for lucy? When I got the call from dante last night, he was being intentionally vague, giving me that whole “I can’t discuss an ongoing investigation” thing. He just wanted to know if I had heard from her. Hey. Hi. I got a weird text. What’s going on? Lucy’s missing. Is everything okay? I saw the patrol car out front. Well, willow found a woman in the boathouse. Well, that doesn’t sound creepy at all. Well, we were hoping it was lucy, since nobody’s heard from her since yesterday, but michael and willow were just here, and apparently it’s robert scorpio’s dead wife. I’m sorry. What? Just another day at the quartermaines’. I’ve missed you, too. But why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost? We all thought you were dead. Why on earth would anyone think that? Where have you been for the last two years, holly? This is so typical of anna devane. Everyone knows she’s made it her life’s work to send you to prison. Well, I’m counting on that. There’s lucy. She turns, reacts…

[ Two gunshots ] …And then she’s shot. By you. I wasn’t there. That screen says otherwise. That is you, is it not? But there is an obvious explanation. You’re a murderer. No, I’m being set up!


I don’t know. Everything is all mixed up. I was on a…boat, I think. I think I’d like you checked out for a concussion. No, I’m fine. Yeah. I’d like a doctor to tell me that. Shall we? How in the hell did holly sutton get into our boathouse? Your guess is as good as mine. Ambulance is on the way. -Ambulance? -Yeah. Ambulance. You know, hospitals, medical people, stuff like that. I just need some dry clothes and a shower. And a guy with “M.D.” After his name. Look, this is not negotiable, holly. Still as stubborn as ever. Look who’s talking. Uh, ms. Sutton, I’m detective falconeri with the pcpd. Do you know how you got to port charles? Your last known location was monte carlo. I honestly have no idea. G.H. — Now. Fine, but no ambulance. And, uh, where’s your car? Would you like to drive? Don’t be ridiculous. They drive on the wrong side in this country. If lucy’s brought in, I’ll let you know right away, okay? Thank you. You’re welcome. I can’t lose anyone else. Listen, it’s way too soon to be thinking like that, okay? Do we know anyone who’s tougher or more resilient than lucy? No. Right. She’s a survivor. We need to remember that and think positive. You’re right. Austin. Hey. I was looking for you. Mason. I didn’t know you were still in town. Oh. Sasha, this is mason, austin’s cousin from pautuck. Nice to meet you. Likewise. Hey, uh, why don’t you two head home, and I’ll let you know if there’s any change? I’ll give you the news. I’ll catch up with you later. The thought of going back to my apartment is… when was the last time you ate? I don’t know, but I’m really not that hungry. No, that’s not gonna work for me. We’re gonna find the cafeteria. You can’t be here. You keep saying that to me as if it’s my choice. We both know it’s not up to either one of us. I didn’t shoot lucy! We just watched you do it! That’s not me! The woman found at the quartermaine boathouse, it wasn’t lucy. Oh, no. Search and rescue was right. But if lucy is gone, it’s because you killed her! -Keep your voice down. -Why should I?! You’re a lawyer, martin. You, of all people, know that video footage can be altered. Ohh. It’s fake. It’s fake. Yeah, and of course you would say that. Do you really think that anna would shoot lucy at point-blank range? And then just stand here and watch a video of it? I think anna devane’s a lot more complicated, maybe even cold-blooded, than she gets credit for. And why not? She’s a trained wsb operative. I’m sure that “wrongfully accused” is the first song they teach you at spy school! Just stop. I know you’re upset. I am, too. But you need to take a breath. I would never do anything to hurt lucy! Do not tell me to calm down. The last time I saw lucy, she was storming off to confront you. Now you’re here and she’s not. So what happened on that pier, anna? What was it? She wouldn’t give you what you wanted? Or she threatened to turn things around, so you got rid of her? Don’t you see this is all victor? This is victor! Wait here. Roz: Finally! What did you do? Where is she?!

[ Gu[ Elevator bell dings ] For the last time, I don’t need a wheelchair. For the last time, I want a doctor to tell me that. And I think I found one. Hi. Can I help you somehow? Uh, yeah. This woman was found wandering the quartermaine grounds. Oh, now I’m “this woman”? And I wasn’t wandering. Then what were you doing there? I don’t know. Memory issues. I’m concerned that there might be… a bit of damage. Hmm. I don’t want to be examined. Why not? Because I’m scared. Hey. Look. I’m gonna be with you every step of the way. And if there’s something wrong or if there’s a problem, better that it happens in here. Yes, no? Yes. Right. Hello. Hi. I’m holly sutton. This is my mother’s favorite spot. Yeah? Yeah. She would sit here and watch me down below catching hermit crabs.

[ Laughs ] I see it. No, you can’T. Sure, I can! Little caroline, running around on the beach, not a care in the world. Yeah? Well, that much is true. Scrambling over the rocks. Little bucket. Did you ever try to take one of those crabs home as a pet? No. No, I always would show them to my mom, and she always acted so impressed and amazed. Oh. But then we would always put them back because she said this was their home. And then she would joke, saying that she… …might live here one day. And now she will. Now she will. This feels right. You know? It really feels right. I’m glad. Laying my mother to rest at the ocean. There’s nowhere she’d rather be. Where do you think holly came from? Did the coast guard find a boat nearby? I don’t know. Hi? Hi. That’s more like it. Less out there and more in here.

Capiche?

Capiche. So why couldn’t you talk this morning? I had an engagement with my niece. A.K.A. A tea party? Yep. Well, I hope violet realizes she was having tea with a rock star. Okay, okay. Let’s not go overboard here. No, that’s not an exaggeration. Have you been following your social-media accounts? No. No, not really. Does that mean my set at the savoy went well? Uh, it didn’t “go well.” The people loved it. Look, the video that I posted, it has over 100,000 views already. Wow. “Wow”? That’s it? Chase, this is huge! You’re gonna be the next big thing! So what’s happened? Oh, no. No. Please don’t tell me you found lucy’s body. Did you actually kill her? Watch your tone with my client. There’s no sign of lucy’s body in the harbor. Tell us where she is. I don’t know! You’re lying! We watched the footage. Yeah, your little show. I’m — I’m sorry… that was very smart of you to arrange for a drone to fly over the docks precisely… what?! No! Ms. Devane is sounding completely unhinged! Please, will someone tell me what’s going on here?! We have a video that shows what appears to be a woman firing a gun twice at lucy coe. Oh, my god. Oh, no. So it was lucy that was shot. Oh, my god. Stop! Oh, I was clinging onto some hope that maybe she’d be found alive. Stop… officer!


So… how you doing?

[ Sighs ] I don’t know. Some days I feel like it’s gonna be okay, and others, I — I hang out at the hospital because I don’t want to be home without him. I remember that feeling. One of the worst parts about grief is that it’s not a straight line. It ebbs and flows. And, god, I just wanted an end date, you know, someone to tell me, “just make it to day whatever, and you’ll feel better.” That would be amazing. Yeah, it would. It’s unfortunate it doesn’t work like that. But I’m here for you, if you ever need to talk. Thank you, maxie. Oh. Excuse me. I’m sorry. I don’t want to interrupt. Um, I was hoping we could chat before I leave. I-I need a favor. So holly has zero memory of what happened? Mnh-mnh. She doesn’t even know how she got to the U.S. Chase, come here. Check this out. Look. What am I looking at? These are the comments from your latest performance. Look. “That voice, those eyes. I’m officially dead.”

[ Chuckles ] Look at this one. “Where can I get this song?” Reply — “never mind the song. Where can I get him?” Chase: Oh, wow. That’s embarrassing. What?! This is incredible! Look, we’ve got to release a single by the end of the week and an entire album by the end of the month. We got to give these people something to buy. Don’t worry. You’ll be able to perform live still. Man, do I miss that feeling — being in the spotlight, you know, in front of hundreds and thousands of people.

[ Cellphone rings ] Okay, I think this is the studio calling about the session I booked. I’ll be right back. Hi. This is brook lynn.

[ Footsteps depart ] Brook lynn’s, uh, really in her element. Brook lynn is having the time of her life. How about you? Hey. How’s holly? Gatlin-holt’s with her now. And how about you? How are you doing?

[ Door opens ] Oh, hey. Yeah, come on in. Hi. Uh, well?

[ Monitor beeping ] I think she’s great. Yeah. No — no double vision, no headaches. Mild case of hypothermia. Yeah, but this blanket’s doing the trick. Well, when’s she gonna be admitted? No, I’m not. I-I wasn’t asking you. How about this? How about I order an mri, and then when I get the results, we can discuss? That sound fair? Fair. Great. I’ll do that. So…

[ Door closes ] …Has anything come back to you? No, not yet. What’s the last thing you remember?

[ Sighs ] It’s all so foggy. Um… I was working for the wsb. Mm-hmm. And I was…investigating a casino in… monaco. Monte carlo. Hm. Yeah, ethan and I turned the place upside down looking for you. Ethan. How is he? Well, last I heard, he was pretty good. Mind you, he’ll be a lot better now that he knows his mother’s alive. I want to hear his voice. Well? I’m just realizing I have — I have no way of reaching him. On me. I’ll be outside. I got to talk to olivia about something. Okay?

[ Door closes ] Jordan: Let’s go. Thank you. You need to pull it together! Unless you want to be arrested for assault. I just couldn’t look at his smug face for one more second. You’re a professional. You know better. Cool down. Where do you think you’re going? In there. Unh-unh. After that little display? You’re out of this. Now. I want anna devane arrested! For? Did you not see what she just did to my client? Roz, not now. No. Now is not the time. A woman’s missing and might even be dead. The shooter was a female? It looked that way. But we still need to analyze the footage. Well, your tech experts are working on that, I assume. I — lucy’s attacker has to be identified! Robert. Hi. It’s me. You need to call me back as soon as you get this, because victor has made his move. He’s trying to frame me for lucy’s murder. No! Anna! Stop! That’s tampering with evidence. For god’s sake. Is this the surveillance footage? It is. Watch it. And have this woman arrested. For murder. Don’t get me wrong, I hate that we lost our fight to save the cemetery, but I think virginia would love being a part of the ocean that she loved so much. Two things can be true at the same time. Yes. I’m beginning to see that. Life. It’s quite the ride. I hate that my mother’s life was cut short, you know? I didn’t have the opportunity to say so many things that I’d want to say. Hey. It’s not too late. Say them now. You go ahead. I’ll be right here. Okay. Oh, virginia. You were a good mom. You were a great mom. And I’m so sorry that I didn’t always make you feel that way. I wish I could say this to your face.

[ Chuckles ] I wish you could know my kids. I wish you could be a part of our lives. But we can’t go back, no matter how bad we want to. I hope you’ve been at peace. And I hope you continue to be. I love you, mom.


So you’re alleging that I followed lucy all the way to a public pier, and then I shot her in full view of anyone who wanted to come by. And as you pointed out, I went to “spy school,” so surely I would have a more clandestine method to eliminate someone at my disposal. I basically put myself out there to get caught. Do you see that this doesn’t make any sense? I see the woman who blackmailed me, the same woman who, when I refused to spy for her, threatened to destroy my life. That’s a bit of an exaggeration. You use people, anna, any way you have to, to even the score in your own petty grudges. With people like you and victor, that gets dangerous real fast. And I should know. I watched my own brother do it for years. The stakes get a little too high, something goes wrong, someone like lucy gets in the way, and then you’ve got to get rid of the problem, permanently.

[ Door closes ] A.D.A. Arden. What’s going on here? Commissioner ashford, nice of you to join us. I was questioning a suspect. I heard. Now tell victor cassadine he’s free to go. How long did dr. Gatlin-holt say that the mri would take? He didn’T. You didn’t answer my question from before. How are you holding up through all this? You mean with my deceased ex-wife turning up alive and well? Yeah. That. Well, it’s a little overwhelming, but in a nice, warm, fuzzy way. It’s a miracle, robert. Now you are gonna get the chance to say all of the things that you didn’t think you’d have a chance to say. Hey. Austin. Uh, was wondering if I could get an update on holly sutton. Are you family? No. I’m not. Then you know I can’t tell you anything. Right. It’s f-for the investigation. I don’t need details or anything like that. I just — is she gonna get admitted or…? I’m recommending she stay for observation, but… okay. Can’t make a patient stay against her will. Right. What about that memory-loss thing? Anything to explain that? Oh, so much for no details. Ah, come on. Eh, there doesn’t seem to be any…physical reason for holly’s memory loss. Singing at the savoy was great. Connecting with the audience, getting lost in the music. I’m sensing a “but.” The whole time I was on stage, I was just waiting for it to be over. I enjoy singing. But it’s not your passion. I enjoy making people happy. And who doesn’t love a crowd cheering for them? But at the end of the day… it’s not making a real difference. Like you would be if you were on the force. Exactly. I want nothing more than to be a part of that investigation to find out who’s running around attacking people with a hook. I want to take that killer off the streets. Does brook lynn know about all this? Managing me means so much to her. And let’s be honest. I can’t be a cop right now. Which is entirely on me. I lost my cool, I punched linc, and now I am paying the price. And thank you for defending my daughter’s honor, by the way. No thanks needed. I regret the outcome. But, honestly, I can’t say that I wouldn’t do it again. Which is why the suspension is totally merited, but it doesn’t make me miss being a cop any less. God! It is pointless focusing on something that I can’t have. I need to focus on something that I can control. For brook lynn’s sake. Brook lynn: Sounds great. We’ll be there.

[ Cellphone chirps ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Beep ]

[ Cellphone rings ] Hello, linc. What can I do for you? I’ll help you if I can. Um, what is it that you need? Talk some sense into austin. Can you convince him to come home to pautuck for thanksgiving? We miss him something fierce. Oh. I didn’t mean to take you away from your family. You’re not taking me away for anything. I’m exactly where I want to be. You’d be welcome, too, of course. And your kids. Um, georgie, james, and bailey, right? That’s impressive. Why don’t we talk about this later? Didn’t you say you have to be on the road? Always looking out, aren’t you? Yep. Think about turkey day. I will. Walk you out. Gobble, gobble! Interesting guy. Yeah… A.D.A. Arden, thank you for taking an interest in this case. As soon as I was made aware, I knew it required my attention. I got to get out of here. If victor set me up, which I believe he has, he’s not gonna have stopped at the drone footage, and there’s gonna be other false evidence out there against me. I know. Go. Thanks. Martin: Oh, no! No, no, no. There’s no way you’re gonna let her walk out of here. Agent devane isn’t under arrest. But don’t leave town. No. Understood. Oh, isn’t that sweet? You give all your friends preferential treatment? Or just the guilty ones? Wait, wait. Sorry. I-I’m not following. A-are you saying you think anna did something to lucy? I know she did. You can see her plain as day on that video. The commissioner failed to mention that. Commissioner ashford, since your judgment is clearly compromised by your relationship with ms. Devane, it’s my opinion that you be removed from this case. You okay? Yeah. I’m feeling… so many things. Mostly free. You know, I mean, when I think about that emergency landing in jacksonville, I was so frustrated because I just wanted to get to where I was going. And that’s exactly what happened, right? I mean, my mother needed me to be here. And I needed to be here for my mother. Divine intervention.

[ Chuckles ] Yeah. It gave me closure with virginia. And it reminded me… of who I am… what’s important to me. My family. My friends. Hermit crabs. Hermit crabs.

[ Chuckles ] You.


I’ve been so focused on everything I’ve lost these past couple years. And it’s been a lot. But I’ve also gained something. What’s that? You. You dropped everything to help me. You slept on a really bad couch.

[ Laughs ] The couch. The couch was not so bad. Thank you for helping me. It meant so much to me. It meant just as much to me. I’m serious. Watching you face your past has made me take a good look at my own life. What did you see?

[ Indistinct conversations ] How’s the head? Still attached.

[ Both chuckle awkwardly ] Why don’t you give ethan a call? Maybe he’ll pick up now. Not exactly the kind of message you can leave on a — on a voicemail, is it? No. Uh, s-sorry. You — you are? Oh, I’m so sorry. Olivia quartermaine. I-I was at the boathouse earlier. That much I remember. I brought you some clothes for later when you get out of here, so… that’s really thoughtful. Thank you. There you go. Yeah. Of course. I got to tell you, it is — it is so wonderful to meet you. Although I feel like I already know you. Oh? Oh, ’cause I was — I was in monte carlo with — with robert and ethan when — when — when they were trying to find you. You should have seen what he went through to find you. It was really — I mean… well, I’ll let you tell her. But I got to tell you, it was really something else. You did all that for me? I don’t know why you’re so surprised. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. We did it! We’ve got him! Did what and got who? I knew this would work! I just knew it! Feel free to fill me in anytime. Linc called. He took the bait. Do not involve maxie in this. I’m not involving her.

You are. ‘Cause you’ve deluded yourself thinking that you can keep pautuck separate from your life here. You can’T. In all honesty, maxie and her kids would do better to just stay as far away from you as possible. I’m following the evidence without making assumptions. You saw the video. Can you say without question that the shooter is anna devane? Without question? No. Okay. So I’m sending the footage to I.T. They’ll do their best to determine if the video’s been altered in any way. Look, I think it might be worth mentioning at this point that whenever I was with lucy and anna’s name came up, lucy would get visibly uncomfortable. I agree. I didn’t think anything of it at the time, but now, well… I-I’m beginning to wonder if lucy might have been… afraid of anna? Add that to the evidence you’re “following.” Are you willing to make an official statement? Uh, yes, I-I suppose so. Does that mean you’ve changed your mind? If the person on the video proves to be anna devane, I will reassess. I can’t listen to any more of this. Until then, there’s nothing that links anna to lucy’s presumed death.

[ Beep ] Alright. Where would one plant evidence in my car?


The life that I came back to a year ago, that — that wasn’t the life that I-I left, and it took me a while to see it. But there’s beauty in that. And new beginnings. A new beginning for both of us. New beginnings can be scary. They can. But they can also be exciting and hopeful and… and full of possibility. I like the sound of that. So do I.

[ Both chuckle ] Is this okay? Yes. And you don’t have to ask me that ever again. Sasha: Mr. Grey? Ah. Sasha. Hi. I didn’t realize you were back in town. Yeah.Have you heard from lucy? No, nothing. And I’m not gonna give up until they find her. Uh, I was actually gonna check in with the E.R. You know, I know it’s futile, but, uh… better than sitting around waiting. Yeah. So, my young friend, how are you holding up? I am taking it day by day. It’s hard to think beyond that. Yeah. I heard from the judge. I have an update on your future. Right after I got off the phone with the studio, linc called. He said that he wants you to do a duet with one of his rising stars. I’ve actually heard her. She’s pretty good. And she’s got a pretty big following. And I think I have the perfect song for you two to sing together. Look, this will be a huge boost for your career. And one step closer to exposing linc for the predator that he is. Right! That, too. It’s really happening. Yeah. I’d like to change into these clothes now. You won’t be needing them, because you’re gonna stay here for observation. Uh, no, I’m not. Uh, I think that I will leave this between the two of you.

[ Chuckles ] Dr. Gatlin-holt said I’m fine. Dr. Gatlin-holt never said anything remotely like that. Or i will be once I’ve had a long bath and a decent meal, neither of which I’ll get here. I’m not gonna win this one, am I? Robert. Do you ever win with me? Anyway, I assume that the metro court is still around? It is. Perfect. I need a full english breakfast and some tea, preferably with some whiskey in it. I’m very sorry the police wasted your valuable time. Oh, look, all that matters is justice for lucy. As the commissioner said, just follow the evidence.

[ Suspenseful chord strikes ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey there. How about some lunch? Oh, I’d love to, but I have a shoot this afternoon. Oh, I thought you were still taking some time off. Well, I would, but mom and the girls are doing much better. That serum is actually working like gangbusters and I’m back at work, so I’m speaking the Devil . I should probably do away with that saying here and saying Home, but it’s from basic black corporate.

What?

I just got fired.

Oh, no, I’m late. I’m, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. No, no. It’s, it’s okay. I, I assumed you and Brady were gonna have a late night at the hospital, but hey, you know what? Good news about the cure for Marle and the others. Yeah, no, it’s, it’s such a relief and I’m, I’m assuming, I’m assuming Brady had a late night. It wasn’t with me.

He dumped me.

Hey dude. Hey dad. I just have to pick up some patient files for Doc and then I’m outta here. God forbid she should take off one day from work while she’s recovering. That doesn’t surprise me a bit. Well, I tell you, that serum suddenly appearing, that was surprising. Not to mention damn lucky for us. Yeah, yeah.

No, we, we, we got lucky on that one.

everything alright. Yeah, yeah. No, the fact that, I mean all, all three women. You know, feeling better and seemingly cured. I mean, it’s, it’s the best news ever. It really is. Yeah. So why are you trying to fool your old man? Because there’s something you’re not saying here. What’s, uh, what’s going on? What’s eating at you

to your health? Ladies, you’re welcome. Hmm. And little, do you know what your miraculous recovery is giving me?

Yes. Yes, Yes. I need you to be straight with me. Kristin. Did you mess with my brain?

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

You broke up with Chloe. I I don’t understand that. It’s not about Chloe. Yeah. What’s it about? It’s about Rachel. All right. I, I understand that she blames Chloe for not letting her see Kristen, but come on, kid. That can’t be you. Well, it is, it is. Dad. I can’t put that little, little girl through much more. I mean, I look at that little heartbroken look on her face, think about what she’s been through.

I know it’s not fair to Chloe and the way I did, but. Rachel comes first, right? Yeah. Yeah. I, I get all of that. It’s just so out of the blue. I mean, last I heard you were gonna sit Rachel down, you were gonna talk to her and try to get her understand, and you were hopeful that eventually she would come around.

So what the hell happened to make you stop all that to suddenly just take such a drastic step? After you break it off with Chloe, you reconcile with me and you and I and Rachel become a loving family. And don’t you dare think you can just turn around and dump me after they’re all cured. You see wolf?

Said that they’re all going to need a second dose in a few months and then maybe a booster after of that, and I am the only one that can see to it that they all get it. You and I are in long haul, Brady. That it was only sudden to you because you’ve been preoccupied. Oh, don’t I know it. I just hate to see you just, just throw away something so great here when you thoroughly haven’t thought this through.

Well, that, that, that’s where you robbed that. I’ve thought it through. I just don’t have a choice.

I think you’re pardon. Okay. Don’t get me wrong, Kristin. I am. To you for everything that you have done for me, everything you did to bring me back. But it’s Gabby, it’s my feelings for her. It’s almost as if something was done to my brain before I was revived and you were there, which is why I am asking you, Kristin, why do I hate Gabby so much?

Come on, RAVs, fill the team we had. Go on. I, um, walked in on her comforting, air, comforting. It was a, it was a hug. Gay was, it was completely understandable. Given the circumstances. They’ve always been close. Eric’s mom, and she’s really sick, right? And their marriage. It didn’t end the way that she wanted or the way that that he wanted.

And you know, so it was, it was, you know, kind of dramatic and sudden. Yeah. You know, mayor attending is never ideal, Rafe. Exactly, yes. So it is completely understandable that they still have these unresolved feelings. Yeah. In the meantime, you just got more and more frustrated. Yeah. Yeah, I did. Which I guess that’s why I, uh, exploded and I rant like a kind of stream of consciousness.

Um, Yeah. Like I’m the one you’re married to. He’s not your husband, I’m your husband, blah, blah, blah. And since that went over so well, you slept here. Yeah.

Yeah. Well, um, you’re not where you’re supposed to be. Hmm. Yeah, tell me about it. No, no. Wherever Nicole is, that’s where you should be trying to fix this together.

Brady wants to be a good father, obviously, so he’s, I put Rachel first and he’s as upset as I am, but he keeps saying he doesn’t have a. I just can’t believe Kristin is using her daughter like this things, things were so good for braiding me this time around and it happened so quickly and it was great and it ended just as quickly.

Chloe, I am so sorry. I mean I’ve, I know what it’s like because I think I might be, And it’s my own damn fault. Fired. Why? What does it say? It doesn’t really, it’s, it’s all we regret to inform you that your services are no longer required. Unfortunate situation for all involved. Budgetary restraints mandated downsizing.

But that, that doesn’t make any sense. They just hired you, man. I agree with you. But EJ DeMar, he just took over the parent company this morning, so I’m sure he had something to do with it. Is the email from him? No,

it’s from Nicole.

No, no, that’s, Yeah, I think that that’s a, it’s a bad idea cause if I go home, Nicole and I can end up getting it around to, and then we both end up losing. The problem is I let this go on for too long. It’s my fault. No, no. You were being patient. Right. If you were hoping things would change, you were hoping that you were overreacting and you were giving Nicole the benefit of the doubt, which is what Lee’s been doing with me.

You mean since Stephan came back. Right. Um, but it’s, it’s mot now. Anyway, Stephan served me divorce papers this morning, so if there was anything lingering in, in my mind at least, it’s definitely long gone and I love Lee. Yeah, I’m sorry. No, that must have been tough. I mean, the last thing I expected was to see stuff in alive again, but for him to be alive and hating me, but I, you know, I just, I, I need to get over, I need to accept the fact that the person that I loved with all my heart, the one that I thought loved, Back the exact same way, just actually finds me repulsive and he’s disgusted by me.

But you know what? Do you know what that is? It’s crazy. Come on man. Look at you sis. You’re beautiful. You’re successful, you’re smart, You’re, you’re Charma. I mean, you have all these things. No, you know. No, he’s crazy. He was damn lucky to have had you. Okay. . He has spoken like a loyal brother. Well spoken like someone who knows.

What a catch you. Yeah, well, I, um, thank you. But, um, I’ve accepted the fact that it’s never gonna work out for me and Stephan, but, you know, I just wish what I, I just can’t get rid of this nagging feeling that, that quack wolf did something to stuff and something to make him feel this way. But, uh, Wolf, Bird himself, underground, like the rat he is, and well, I can’t find him, Can’t track him down to confront him about it.

Gabby, I can tell you where to find him.

Thumbs he cops and in there intrusive search warrants, walking thumbs if you ask me. Jim Li and Dexterously deficient. It’s quite the mess. Thanks there. Those fools in blue all. I may have a solution for you. And what would that be? Leave it the way it is. I don’t mean to offend, sir, but have you lost your damn mind?

What you need is a new lab, clean and orderly state of the art. Oh, what a wonderful idea. Shall I write to Santa Claus? Ho, ho ho. A new love gleaming. Brand Spanking, new outfitted with everything your bad little heart could desire. Right down to the last test tube. I would like to see this place actually.

So a little more involved than jumping in the car and chanting over. How far are we talking? Exactly? How about 10,000 miles? I was actually shocked. You know, I just never seen Ray so upset and so angry. I’m so sorry. No, he didn’t even return my calls or my texts. And now Chloe, I I, I can’t stop thinking about that day.

I, I woke up when I had that dream about Eric, The sex dream. Yes. That one. No, I just, I couldn’t, I couldn’t stop myself. I couldn’t stay away. No, I, I had to go see him and just my luck, Jada was there. I lied, of course, about why I was there, and then the lie just kept going. You know, my reaction to that dream and all the feelings, it stirred up.

That is the sole reason Eric ended up working here,

but now that’s taken care of,

fired by. It’s classy. Hmm. Well, at least it wasn’t a text. Yeah. Well, maybe EJ forced her hand. Maybe it wasn’t about budget after all. Or maybe, maybe it’s just, you know, I’ve been outta the game for a while. Maybe I’m just not, not good anymore. All right. Look, if I did, if I did come to you and say that I wanted to hire Eric, what would you have said?

I would’ve said, It’s a terrible idea, Nicole. Why? Because there is no way in hell I want Eric working together with my wife, Jada. What is it? I, I think I know why this happened.

What? What do you mean? How? How could you know? Okay. Remember last night at the hospital and you asked me to go to the pub to let your father know about the serum? Mm-hmm. . Well, when I got there, brave and Nicole were outside and they were arguing. I didn’t mean to ease drop, but I was kind of stuck. If I would’ve went inside, they would’ve saw me.

So I just stayed where I was at a sight and I ended up catching the tail end of their fight. So what were Nicole and Ray arguing about?

You

wait. Oh my God. Right. You know where. Yeah, we rated his secret lab the other day. We suspected that he had the serum that could cure Kate, Kayla, and Marlena. But we didn’t find the serum, but we did find Ralph. So if I were looking for him, that’s where I’d start. I’m gonna go right now. Now hold on a second.

You want to go? I’m gonna send a uniform with you. Let guys Dangerous. Not afraid of that nutty old creep. No, I don’t. I don’t need an escort, but,

A what I, I just want answers since the minute that Stephan showed up and rejected me, Reef, I’m kinda overwhelmed thinking that I, I might get the truth.

Ah, s Stephen, I’m not your enemy. You are my brother and I love. And if I can help you, I will. But I mean, even if I could manipulate your feelings for Gabby, why would I wanna do that? I mean, she and I were allies when I backed her against EJ at the company. So if you two were together, I would love that.

I’d be happy for you. Hmm.

Does that make sense?

So maybe I’ve been thinking about this the wrong way. Maybe. No, obviously you’re not anti gammy, right? Maybe you’re just pro chloey.

You had no choice but to break things off. The Chloe’s son. There is always a choice. No, I know. I know that I. I didn’t mean for it to come out the way it did. That came out very angry and very abruptly. I’m sorry, I’m, I’m obviously, my emotions are a little hot on this topic right now, but what I meant to say was, when it comes to your children’s welfare, you do what’s best for them, right?

No matter what end of story. That’s it. No matter what the cost to you personally, or even if it’s a deep emotional cost, you stick by your kid. You do what you need to do for your kid, right? You’re a dad, you get it. You’re a great. Am I right?

Yeah, of course. And I respect your, your, your decision, your devotion to your daughter. I’m just sorry to see Chloe go.

Wait, so you, you fired him in an. Were there no carrier pigeons available. Okay. I took the easy way out. I know. I didn’t even give Eric a reason why I let him go. I just made up some stuff about budget cuts and downsizing. Oh no. But it was the right thing to do. I mean, Ray was so upset about Eric and he was so brutally honest about it.

I didn’t have a. What, why, why are you looking at me like that? I, I, I’m just wondering why did you really fire Eric? Did I not just explain that? I sort of, But is it because you’re feeling guilty about lying to ra or is there more or more, More meaning, do you wanna get back on track with ra? Do you want your marriage to.

I’d like to know the answer to that myself.

So this is all about something that RA said Rafe was upset about Nicole hiring you, and he said it was a terrible idea and that he wished that she would’ve talked to him about it so that he could tell her. So he is jealous of me. Of Nicole’s feelings for you. Yeah.

So she fired me. This save marriage.

I should look at you two talk.

I’m glad you’re here. Very glad this, this is so hard. I, I, I don’t even know where to start. Okay. Well then let me please,

I’m sorry. I am, I lost my temper and I said things that I shouldn’t have said. I should be the one apologizing. I pushed back on everything you said last night, and I wasn’t listening, and I didn’t understand your feelings. Listen, I, I just wanted to let you know where I was emotionally. I, um,

I said things that I shouldn’t have said and, and just that’s not how I wanted to handle it. Don’t blame yourself. I, I was unfair to you. It’s too much to ask. You know, me still being so close to Eric and Jada is his girlfriend and it’s her place to console him if things go bad or get bad for him. I mean, it’s not mine, right?

And he doesn’t need me to employ him.

But I am, I want you to know, I heard you loud and clear last night. You said that Eric working here was a terrible idea. Yeah. So I, I did something about it. What? I fired Eric. Oh, you shouldn’t have done that.

I shouldn’t have pushed you so hard about Chloe. That’s, that’s, that’s your business. I’m gonna just pick up this stuff for Dr. Do you need help with that? I can help you. No, no. I’m good kid. Thanks.

Hey, you know, I know that you don’t need me or anybody else twisting your arm to do what you think is right. Thank you

that Marla. She’s, she’s, she’s, she’s doing good, right? It’s working. She’s getting better. Kate and Kayla. It’s a miracle. No other word for it. I’m so glad. I mean, that’s the best news ever. Yeah. Somebody up there likes us, or. Doc, but a wood beats me . But in reality, we both know that that serum didn’t just drop from the heavens.

No, it didn’t. I don’t know if it came from Dr. Ralph or somebody else. It came from somebody else. I don’t have a clue who that is, but you know what? I’m not gonna look at gift twice in the. I just need to be sure that serum’s gonna keep working here. It’s gonna gimme my peace of mind. Absolutely, Dad. In the meantime, I’m just gonna stay optimistic that I know your feeling a bit skeptical about it, but my gut tells me that if everything’s gonna be just fine, That serum is working.

Doesn’t matter where it came from. That’s what we need to hold onto

Jakarta. You’re going to love it. Trust me. You’re just trying to get rid of me. We both stand to gain from this wolf, Dr. Wolf, and I don’t see what I stand to gain from ex. The police already suspect you to be linked to the disease that struck those women down. Take a look around Salem’s. No place for you to be right now.

Fair enough. I don’t like it, but I see your point. Good. How long will it take for you to get your things together? My most important work is kept off. It is simple. Much. I need to pack up here. All right, then you’re private jet waits. I still feel like I’m running. That’s because you are doctor, but there’s no shame in it and the police are not your only concern.

Gabby’s trying to find you. She wants to know if you brainwash Stephan into hating her, you may not. Under the police lights, but Gabby’s a whole other beast. You don’t want that. I certainly don’t, and neither does. Kristen,

it’s interesting you think that I did terrible mind altering things to you. You know, I spent all this money, time, and effort to play match. For Chloe to play Matchmaker for Brady in you Christian, it’s no secret. You have an obsession with Brady and Chloe was in the way, and I then miraculously coincidentally, wake up from this four year long nap.

With this intense disgust for Gabby and an equally as intense longing for Chloe. So, yes, that’s the only way I can explain it. Right. You know, I can’t speak to your feelings. So you think that I needed to, uh, have you want Chloe so that I could get to Brady? Yes, it makes sense. Except for one detail when that obviously escaped your attention.

Brady and Chloe are no more. Stephan, they broke up. No thanks to me. So. Well, they’re, in other words, she’s free, free.

Call me from the hospital with any updates. You got it yet?

Whoa. Hi, Chloe. John, I’m, I’m sorry, my interrupt. No, no, not at all. I’m just heading back to the hospital. Oh. How’s everything going over there? Fine. Thanks for asking. Getting better minute by minute. In fact, I don’t even want to think about what would’ve happened if that serum hadn. Dropped from. Well, I’m so happy for you.

It’s good to see you. Good to see.

Stuff in you. Okay. I didn’t mean to pull the rug out for, How do you know this? Where did you find this out? The good news travels fast in Salem. It just proves my point. Chloe and Brady were a ticking time. Look, I know, I know that you’re still unsettled, but part of it I’m sure has to do with this wonderful news about Chloe.

I can imagine that you still have some lingering doubts about your feelings before the four years when you were gone versus now, here’s my theory. See, in the back of your head, you had four years to resolve your conflicting feelings towards Chloe and Gabby, and then you woke up with this new sense of.

Yeah, you finally figured it all out and now you’re finally going after what you truly want. Yeah, I mean, this is just my opinion, Stephan. I mean, you can trust me, but um, I would trust your gut, right.

Sorry for bursting in here like this. You should really get going. Of course,

about.

Sorry little brother. I do feel a little bad for you, but I don’t need you to come between Brady and Chloe anymore. I guess it’s better safe than sorry. Leaving is the best option. Better safe than sorry. Yes. I’m not intimidated by Ms. Hernandez, unlike you. I can handle her . You’re a genius, Dr. Wolf and an idiot, Gabby’s a lion.

This she get the truth out of you in two seconds. She’s that formidable. So please stop fighting. Shak Carter’s lovely this time of year, and it has the added benefit of being out of the jurisdiction of the other Hernandez in your way. Gabby’s older brother, police commissioner.

I’ll need a little time to get my things in order. Good. I’ll send a car to take you to the airport. You’re doing the right thing.

I don’t understand. I, I thought I did the right thing. Right? Yeah. I mean, obviously we’re supposed to be partner. This isn’t a good patch that we’re in. I don’t know what happens next, but I do know that I don’t want you to fire Eric on account of me. I don’t just, I don’t want that on my shoulders. Okay, well, Kathryn, what do you want?

I did what I did to help fix us, but it hasn’t obviously, so.

So what’s the next step? Where do we stand?

Pleases Rafe, Just tell me what I can do. Tell me what you.

I want us to be. Okay.

So do I. But after last night, is that even possible? I mean, you didn’t even come home. No, I know, I know, I know. And I’m sorry. Okay. I was, I was just worried if I did then, uh, I was just gonna make things.

Or maybe coulda worked things out and had incredible makeup sex. Oh my. Why didn’t I think of that? What I do know is that I missed you so much. I missed you too.

Oh, sorry.

It’s the station I gotta get down there. When I see you tonight, I will be there.

Promise.

Um,

I know you feel bad for sharing what you overheard, but thank. I’m glad to know. It looks like I’m not going to shoot After all. My afternoon is gonna be free, so if you’d like, we can have a lunch here. Work on my resume. . Well, actually my lunch break’s just about over. I’m sorry, I talked cheer off. No, don’t be, But listen, I gotta hit back some station, but how about dinner?

Great, Nate. Okay, but you have to pay

Wait, what are you doing here? Uh, yeah, I’m, I’m sorry. I won’t, I won’t be long. I just, um, I love some things in your bedroom. Oh, yeah, yeah. I’m sorry. You can go, go, go ahead. You can.

Chloe.

Hey. Hey. I’m sorry. I, I feel, I feel really terrible. You know that, right? Well, yeah. That makes it two of us. But I know why you did what you did. Okay.

Got a minute, boss. Sure. What’s up? Uh, this is kind of awkward, but, uh, I accidentally heard some of the fight between you and Nicole last night. Huh? I see. Yeah. Uh, yeah. Not my best moment. And, uh, Sorry you had to hear that. Yeah, I, I really did not mean to overhear, um, I just felt that you should know that I also told Eric what I heard.

Oh, really? Okay. Well, surprised to hear you say that. Well, I was with Eric and he got an email from Nicole and he got fired. He was, he was so confused and, and I just didn’t know how to help him, so I just felt that he should know, Hey, Dave, don’t worry about it. It’s okay. All right. It’s, uh, everything’s gonna gonna work out fine.

Okay? It’s just, um, You know what I, I want you to know that I never told Nicole to fire Eric. In fact, I told her that it was a mistake and she should, she should rehire, You know, I gotta be able to trust my wife.

Cole, I was hoping you were here. Well, I’m not at work. Right. Um, anyway, I, I just, I wanted to explain the email I wrote earlier, even though it says that we’re reassessing the budget and mm-hmm. and making cuts. I know that’s not the reason why you fired. I know it’s about your marriage.

What are you doing here? No, we talked about this. I just broke up with Chloe last night. Okay. You only got, I need some more time. Dammit. To what? Get over her. I helped you dodge a bullet Brady, so the sooner you realize that, the better. Hello? Chloe? Uh, Brady,

What is this? I guess you didn’t have the chance to tell you I’m moving it.

[Door closing]

Thomas: Steffy? I’m here.

Steffy: O– okay. Hi.

Thomas: Hi.

Steffy: Is everything okay?

Thomas: Yeah, it’s just half the time I walk in, finn’s got his shirt off and you’re all making out and stuff. Just wanted to forewarn.

Steffy: Good to know. Thanks. I mean, I can’t help it. But just you wait. Wait till you have a girlfriend. I walk in on you, that’s gonna be super weird. Yeah, whatever. Why don’t you actually have a girlfriend? What’s going on? I want to know about your dating life.

Thomas: Uh, there’s not really anything to talk about.

Steffy: Uh-huh?

Thomas: Not seeing anyone right now. Outside of work, I’m just focused on my son.

Hope: So, ridge is coming home from aspen today?

Brooke: He’ll be landing anytime.

Hope: Well, I think it’s a good sign that he texted you.

Brooke: Yeah, but he’s not coming home alone. He’s been with taylor this whole time. They’re flying back to L.A., Together.

Katie: Well, thanks a lot, justin. You just made my life a whole lot more difficult. I didn’t think I’d be able to secure this deal. Now I’ve got to come up with a strategy.

Justin: [Chuckling] Well, I’m glad I could be the cause of more work. That means that you’re starting to trust me a bit.

Katie: Don’t push it.

Justin: Okay, I know. I have a lot to make up for.

Katie: Carter says you’ve been doing a lot of great work around here.

Justin: Thanks. Uh, this place is refreshing. Inspiring. It’s a lot of positive energy.

Katie: Did justin barber just talk about positive energy?

Justin: See, what can I say? I like it here. I’m using my law degree for something good. Helping people out while not tearing others down. But I must say, if you look at that deal, a lot of that work was carter. Those signatures, that’s all him. Speaking of, I actually have some forms that I need to get your wet signatures on. Do you mind if I come right back?

Katie: Yeah, of course.

Justin: All right.

Katie: Hey, justin, um… I like seeing you like this.

Justin: Thank you.

Katie: There are plenty

of people around here who think

that you’re amazing, carter.

Carter: Like who?

Carter: What are you plotting in here?

[ Giggling ]

Katie: Well, although I probably shouldn’t admit this to the C.O.O., I was, um, just daydreaming.

Carter: Hm. Depends on what you were daydreaming about.

[ Giggling ]

Carter: Well, I don’t want to distract you from your work.

Katie: Well, you’d be on my mind whether you were here or not.

Carter: Is that so?

Katie: You haven’t been thinking about me?

Carter: I might have asked pam to text me when you got done with your meeting.

Katie: Well, that explains the look she gave me. I thought it might have something to do with my sister.

Carter: How is she?

Katie: She’s heartbroken. She thought her marriage to ridge was solid and, all of a sudden, he’s leaving her. She can’t even say why.

Brooke: I just want some answers. I need ridge to come home and explain to me what happened. I– I have no idea what happened. So, our marriage is over, and he’s suddenly with taylor? Why? And how? What’s going on?

Hope: Ridge said he’s coming over, right? So, that could be good.

Brooke: Uh, yes. Yes, I suppose it could be. But, what if I can’t get through to him? I– I– I don’t know what else to do. And if I can’t, then our marriage could really be over.

Steffy: I think it’s really great you’re enjoying this time with douglas.

Thomas: You’re not gonna give me a hard time about not dating?

Steffy: No. I’m too happy to give you a hard time.

Thomas: That’s a once in a lifetime thing.

[ Car door thudding ]

Thomas: Car door. They’re here.

Steffy: Can you not on my coffee table?

Thomas: They’ll never– shh.

Steffy: What are you doing?

Thomas: They’ll never know.

Taylor: Hello!

Ridge: Hey, hey.

Steffy: Hey.

Thomas: Hey, you’re– you’re back.

Taylor: And– and back together?

Thomas: I know. Hah!

Steffy: What!

[ Laughing ]

[ Incoherent chatter ]

Thomas: Mom!

Taylor: I see you! I see you! Ah!

[ Laughing ]

Thomas: I almost don’t believe it.

Steffy: You gotta believe it. We’re finally back together.

Steffy: Forresters. The way we always wanted.

Thomas: Yeah.

Steffy: Oh, this is amazing.

[ Thomas chuckling ]

Ever notice how stiff clothes can feel rough on your skin?

Katie: These ad buys are going to completely round out our full saturation approach. Thank you both very much.

Justin & carter: All in a day’s work.

Carter: Okay, let’s never do that again.

Justin: Please, never.

Katie: All right, here you go.

Justin: All right. We’re all set. So, I’ll let you get back to it. Oh, and, uh, by the way, um, sorry to hear, word is getting around about brooke and ridge.

Katie: Yeah, well, I feel bad for my sister. I’m just hoping they can figure things out.

Carter: You’re a loving, loyal sister, katie.

Katie: Well, I know how much ridge means to brooke and how hard they’ve fought for each other and their marriage. But until she talks to him, all I can do is worry, and I know she wouldn’t want me to do that. She would want me to be positive.

Carter: And maybe I can help.

Katie: You already have. Is that why you were looking for me? You thought I might need some cheering up?

Carter: Or I do. You gave me quite the ego boost the other day. You said I looked like a trout.

[ Laughing ]

Carter: I just had no idea you, um… felt that way about me.

[ Laughing ]

Katie: I find that hard to believe.

Carter: It’s true.

Katie: Well, does that mean you’ve never thought about me?

Carter: You were with bill.

Katie: Not anymore.

Carter: Till quinn bailed on me, I thought I had something solid with her. But now–

Katie: Now you’re free to start something else.

Brooke: Oh, honey, you don’t have to wait around.

Hope: You need me. I’m here.

Brooke: Thank you. Actually, I would probably be driving myself absolutely crazy if you weren’t here. I still have so many questions.

Hope: So, ridge didn’t give you any sort of clue as to why he is now with taylor?

Brooke: No. I mean, yeah, there was that kiss in monaco that they had, but ridge explained that. He said he didn’t want that to impact our relationship.

Hope: Well, I know thomas and steffy took it as a sign that their parents should be together.

Brooke: Yeah. Steffy made sure that everybody knew, she wouldn’t let up, that’s for sure.

Hope: But I thought that ridge made it clear to her that he was committed to you.

Brooke: Yeah, he didn’T. He told me the same thing. And I actually believed him. I was just not gonna let anything or anybody come between us. Not steffy, not taylor, not the situation with thomas and douglas. Yeah, sure, sure, we were struggling a little bit, but we were working our way through things. And actually, we were in a good place.

Hope: But thomas, steffy and taylor weren’t going to accept that, so they drove a wedge between the two of you.

Brooke: And I really hate to say it, but I think that maybe it worked.

[ Forresters laughing ]

Steffy: Here you go. That’s for mom.

Taylor: Thank you.

Steffy: Love birds.

Ridge: Thank you.

Thomsa: You know, dad, if you have, uh, some luggage, I can– I can bring yours down, too.

Steffy: Yeah, we can bring the bags up to mom’s room. We could do that. Yeah, we should do that.

Taylor: You don’t need to fuss over us. Stop.

Thomas: Come on, we would do anything for you guys.

Steffy: Yeah, we should be doing more. You know what we should do? When the kids get home, we should have a barbecue.

Ridge: When the kids get home? They’re not gettin’ out?

Steffy: They’re not here yet. They’re very excited to do, like, an elaborate tea party for you. It’s really cute.

Thomas: You know, seeing you guys together, this is just, like… it’s so amazing.

Taylor: All feels right in the world now, you know? Us. We’re back together. And our beautiful, amazing, brilliant, wonderful kids are finally off our back.

[ Ridge gasping ]

[ Laughing]

Taylor: No, really. No, really. It’s– this is– this is everything I’ve– I’ve ever wanted. For all of us.

Music (“I swear”) plays

Carter: You know, we used to spend a lot of time together.

Katie: We used to do a lot of talking about bill and quinn. I don’t wanna do that anymore.

Carter: No argument here.

Katie: I do have one more question, though.

Carter: Yes, she’s really gone. And after speaking with shauna, I don’t think she’s ever coming back.

Katie: Well, I think that’s for the best, honestly.

Carter: Would you have wanted a clean break from bill?

Katie: Bill and I have a son. He’s always gonna be in my life. But honestly, we haven’t, um, connected as a couple in a while.

Carter: Mm.

Katie: Which is why I’m curious.

Carter: About me and quinn?

Katie: Yeah. You know, she had success, she had security. She’s a world-renowned jewelry designer. She was mrs. Eric forrester, and yet, she risked it all for you.

Carter: Thanks?

Katie: No, it’s just, you know, besides all of your success and talents. You obviously shook quinn to her core. Caused a seismic shift in her life.

Carter: And that idea intrigues you?

Katie: It does. Was the chemistry that hot?

Hope: You can’t lose hope. Because there is still a chance. And I know you still love him, and I have to believe that he still loves you.

Brooke: He does love me. He told me he always will. But that doesn’t mean we’ll be together.

Hope: Mom, I know you and I know you will be able to get through to him.

Brooke: I hope so, honey. But I am one small voice. He has his other family shouting in his ear all the time.

Hope: I know, because they’re trying to make it seem as if their connection and their love is more valid than yours when it is not. You are ridge’s wife.

Brooke: You’re right. You are. You’re right. And I don’t want to be at war with taylor and her kids. I don’T. God, I just want my husband back. That’s all.

Thomas: Okay. I want details. Like I was there.

Ridge: I assume that she told you every detail ad nauseam at this point.

Thomas: Yeah, well, I mean, have you ever heard her tell a story? It’s like–

Steffy: Excuse me?

Taylor: Steffy has good stories.

Steffy: Yes, I do.

Thomas: Okay, look, things seemed kind of bleak before you left for aspen. I mean, mom, you were thinking about leaving L.A.

Taylor: Well, that was the plan. But steffy convinced me to go to aspen and think things through. Don’t make any rash decisions.

Taylor: I mean, as much as I love your dad, I knew that he was torn and he was trying to make his marriage work. And our feelings for each other were making things very complicated, and it– it just didn’t feel right.

Ridge: Hey!

Taylor: But then he said that he came there to find me. Because he realized that I was the one that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

Ridge: And she didn’t believe me.

Taylor: I mean, I– I wanted to believe you.

Ridge: Eh.

Taylor: I did, I did. But I was– I was bawling my eyes out. And I was really fighting my feelings. So, naturally, I ran from them.

Ridge: And from me.

Taylor: Yes.

Taylor: But he didn’t let me get away. No matter how far or fast I ran, he didn’t give up.

Ridge: Can we please– can we please stop running? I’m gonna have a heart attack.

Taylor: Then stop chasing me.

Ridge: But I’m not that man anymore.

Taylor: Okay, what kind of man are you now?

Ridge: I’m a man who’s standing on a mountain in front of this beautiful woman, telling her that we can do this. That I’m not gonna let her down anymore.

Ridge: I want to be a better man.

Ridge: And you make me a better man. I want to be with you.

Ridge: For always. And she was so deeply moved that she said–

Taylor: What the hell took you so long?

[ Chuckling ] Cps agent: Child protective services.

Brooke: Hello. I’d like to report a child in danger. Cps agent: And your name, ma’am?

[ Cell phone beeping ] Brooke logan. Please hurry.

[ Cell phone beeping ]

Brooke: Brooke logan. Please hurry.

[ Taylor & ridge laughing ]

Taylor: Uh-oh, I think we lost him. Thomas?

Thomas: No, no, I was just, uh, just thinking. Uh, so then brooke showed up?

Steffy: Not that it mattered. It was too late.

Thomas: Yeah. No, I just thought that maybe she was trying to plead her case.

Ridge: Why can’t you take some responsibility and just say it? Say to me.

Brooke: Say what?

Thomas: Brooke didn’t say anything?

Ridge: Why are we talking about brooke? What are we doing? I’m here with your mom, and yes, there’s only one question I have, and you’re right. What took me so long?

[ Laughing ]

Taylor: See? I knew I– it was– it was valid. Good question.

[ Mouthing ] Research shows that people remember ads with young people

Katie: It’s a serious question. What?

Carter: I’m just thinking, if bill heard you right now.

Katie: Is that really what you’re thinking?

Katie: I made it very clear that I’m not interested in pursuing things with bill.

Carter: I do want to make one thing clear, though.

Katie: Okay.

Carter: I didn’t never give you a thought. I’ve always noticed how incredible you are. How smart. How strong.

Carter: Beautiful. How sexy.

Brooke: What I share with ridge is more than history. We are connected on the deepest level. And taylor and her children, they’ve never understood that. They’ve never been able to accept it. But I am not giving up on ridge.

Brooke: Our love story is not coming to an end.

Taylor: I just– then– then, yeah. But the– it was–

Steffy: That’s great.

Taylor: And it was beautiful, too.

[ Taylor laughing ]

[ Chatter ]

Steffy: Are we leaving you out?

Ridge: What?

Thomas: Yeah, like, what are you doing? You gonna join the team? Come on.

Ridge: I’m– I’m the leader of this team, what are you talking about? I’m just standing back for a second because I… I like seeing you guys laughing together. Those– those are precious moments. We don’t have too many of those. I mean, that’s something that steffy and finn have taught us, right?

Taylor: That is– that is so true. And thank you for that. You know? You know, this moment, right here, that we’re living right now, I– I really didn’t think it was possible. And I didn’t think it would ever happen. Until your dad caught up with me on the top of that mountain and proved to me that anything is possible.

Ridge: Hm.

Taylor: True love wins in the end, we’re happy, we’re together and we’re ready to build the rest of our lives together.

Taylor: We did it, ridge. We did it. It’s another miracle for a family.

Thomas: Another miracle for our family indeed.

This is a fun kids’ show, but I think it’s worthwhile for adults to watch as well. I enjoyed speaking to these kids. There was a successful kids’ series on PBS with the same name and general idea in 1992. They brought it back with this version in 2019 on Apple TV+. This season, there is a new cast and they’re including more socially conscious story elements.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Sharon: Hi. Is everything okay?

Mariah: Is it that obvious that something’s going on?

Sharon: Well, you two look a little anxious.

Tessa: Yeah, we kind of are.

Mariah: Christine asked us to meet her here.

Sharon: Is that about the adoption?

Mariah: Yeah, she helped us set up a profile that we put online.

Sharon: Yeah, I remember you mentioned that. It’s some kind of national database.

Mariah: Yeah, and our posting hasn’t been up that long,

Tessa: But if the right expectant mother sees it.

Mariah: Not if, okay? When. This is going to happen.

Tessa: Yes. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I will stay positive. It’s just hard after the experience with the first lawyer.

Mariah: Who said that our chances of being considered as adoptive parents was virtually zero considering our colorful pasts.

Sharon: Don’t let that discourage you. That’s one person’s opinion. You two are a wonderful, loving couple.

Mariah: Right. And any baby would be lucky to have us.

Sharon: They would, you know. That’s why I keep saying it. You can tease me all you want to, but it’s the truth.

Christine: Hi.

Tessa: Hi, christine.

Mariah: What’s — what’s going on?

Christine: I have news. Good news.

Jack: I’m glad you could free yourself up from the lab to be part of that presentation. I thought it would be a learning experience for you.

Allie: Yeah, yeah, it was really interesting to see how the moisturizing serum that I’ve been working on is going to be marketed.

Jack: You know, you may be able to follow in ashley’s footsteps, building a career that combines being a scientist and an executive. I think you could make a heck of a businesswoman. Or not. Maybe — maybe the board’s not for you.

Allie: No, it’s not that, jack. It’s just that when you said “businesswoman,” it made me think of someone in particular.

Jack: Someone you’re not terribly fond of.

Allie: It’s noah’s ex, audra. She got some finance job here in genoa city.

Jack: And you’d rather she found employment elsewhere.

Allie: Well, she says that she’s here just for the job and that he has nothing to do with it, but I’m just not so sure. I don’t know. She keeps showing up wherever he is.

Jack: So what does noah say?

Allie: Well, noah says that he wants nothing to do with her.

Jack: Well, there. You have no reason to be concerned.

Allie: It’s not that simple. Oh, she is very assertive and glamorous and, well, they have this history.

Jack: It is hard for me to imagine her being more glamorous than you are.

Allie: Come on.

Jack: No, I mean that. She and noah split up for a reason. Everyone knows how much he adores you. Don’t let this situation make you feel insecure.

Allie: Thanks, jack. I really needed to hear that.

Jack: And if this woman gives you any grief, you give it right back.

Allie: You know what? I just might do that.

Noah: Okay, first event with live music, so everything’s going to be right on point. So if the sound engineers want to come in a little bit early, please make sure you’re here to let them in.

Woman: Got it.

Noah: Alright, thank you. Hey. What are you doing here? Thought we agreed to keep our distance.

Audra: I didn’t come to start a fight with you, noah. It’s the last thing I need.

Ashley: I told jack all of it — how the bentley connects to tucker and diane and being in los angeles.

Nikki: And how did he react?

Ashley: Calm as a cucumber. Didn’t faze him at all.

Phyllis: Mm, I wouldn’t be too sure about that.

Nikki: Wait a minute. Do you know something we don’t?

Phyllis: Well, I just think that jack is starting to have doubts about diane’s whole reformed act that she’s pedaling all over town.

Allie: Is that a hunch, or is that actually based on specifics?

Phyllis: It’s strong intuition is what it is.

Ashley: Oh, that?

Phyllis: Yeah, well, we need to get him to our side. We need incriminating evidence…

Ashley: I agree.

Phyllis: …Yes, that tucker and diane were in L.A. Together, collaborating.

Nikki: And what was the nature of that collaboration? Was it something personal? Was it a moneymaking scheme? And how does that play out now that they’ve both returned to genoa city?

Audra: Devon and lily are gonna postpone the ipo while they sort things out.

Tucker: Oh, that’s to be expected, I suppose. We’ll just have to be patient. You’ll keep me apprized, of course.

Audra: Of course. But there’s a larger problem than the delay.

Tucker: Oh, let me guess. Some mysterious ceo who’s as interested in taking over chancellor-winters as I am.

Audra: That’s right. Any thoughts on the identity of the interested party?

Tucker: Mm. Many. But one name keeps coming to the surface — victoria newman.

Audra: That would be a reach, I think.

Tucker: I don’t think so because katherine — when she died, she left the company to victor. So, there’s history there. Victoria would know that and try to honor it. Hey, victoria. What a welcome coincidence. Ah, you look as lovely as ever.

Victoria: And you still have the same silver tongue.

Tucker: Can you join me? I’d love to catch up with you.

Victoria: I suppose that i can while I’m waiting for my takeout. It’s as good a way as any to pass the time.

Tucker: [ Chuckles ] Allow me.

Victoria: I gather from your dramatic entrance at the abbott’s that ashley is the unfortunate recipient of your attention right now.

Diane: Oh, have you seen the photos from kyle and summer’s first day of their honeymoon?

Jack: Yeah, I just looked at those. Seem to be enjoying themselves immensely.

Diane: It’s such an idyllic setting. They look so happy and so in love.

Jack: I’m glad they’ve taken the time off from work and everything else that’s going on.

Diane: By “everything else,” I gather that you still think tucker and I led some sort of secret life in L.A.?

[ Sighs ] I see you’re not denying it. You’re doubting my honesty all over again because of phyllis. I just — I hate that she’s turning you against me.

Noah: What’s the problem? Audra, it’s me. I know something’s wrong.

Audra: My consulting project isn’t going as planned.

Noah: I’m sorry to hear that, but, you know, why come here?

Audra: Where I know I’m not wanted, you mean? Rather than, I guess, sitting in my hotel room, I wanted to sit someplace vibrant and just figure things out.

Noah: I assume you’ll have your usual.

Audra: I’m flattered you remember my drink of choice, but something nonalcoholic for now, please. I need to keep my wits about me.

Tucker: I’ve made no secret of the fact that I want to make things right with ashley, show her I’m a changed man.

Victoria: With that entrance? Helicoptering in to a private family event?

Tucker: Well, I may have been overcompensating a bit.

Victoria: The next time you make a grand gesture like that, I recommend that you make sure the person that you’re trying to impress is actually there.

Tucker: That’s amazing advice. It’s no wonder you’re such a successful ceo.

Victoria: On second thought, maybe it’s better that ashley wasn’t there. Would’ve been really humiliating for you if she told you to go to hell in front of half of genoa city’s movers and shakers.

Tucker: I don’t care what anyone thinks of me.

Victoria: Oh, please. You are the most image-conscience person that i know. You thrive on attention.

Tucker: And you don’t want to give me that satisfaction, do you?

Victoria: I have nothing more to say about you.

Tucker: Okay, let’s talk about you, then. That whole ashland locke fiasco — what happened there?

Victoria: Well, I prefer not to think about that time.

Tucker: Ah. Well, I see. And yet you emerged from it all with newman even stronger.

Victoria: It’s kind of you to notice.

Tucker: Oh, I’ve noticed everything you’ve done. I’m impressed with everything you’ve done with the company since you took over.

Victoria: I take it you were getting all of the business news while you were at the ashram?

Tucker: [ Chuckles ] I plead the fifth.

Victoria: What about the mystical experience? Did you glean any insight into yourself?

Tucker: You mean into my cold, black heart?

Victoria: You tell me.

Tucker: Well, a spiritual retreat’s really only as good as what you’re willing to put into it, and, back then, I wasn’t ready to do the work.

Victoria: Yes, but you love to keep people guessing, so I guess it wasn’t a total waste, was it?

Tucker: You know, you’re the perfect blend of your parents. You’ve got nikki’s deft way of handling people, and, of course, you’ve got victor’s business acumen.

Victoria: I’ll take that as a compliment.

Tucker: You should. It was meant as one. I think you like to keep people guessing, too.

Victoria: Do I?

Tucker: Mm-hmm. With all the recent acquisitions you’ve been making and the aggressive expansion of the company, that’s had to have kept people surprised, including some in your own company, I’m sure. I used to be like that.

Victoria: I wonder if that’s really changed.

Nikki: Tucker claims he’s in town for three reasons — devon, his grandson, and you, ashley.

Ashley: Right. Well, trust me, his agenda goes far beyond trying to get me back.

Phyllis: Oh, really? Is that a hunch or based on something specific?

Ashley: Well, I have the misfortune of knowing intimately exactly how tucker’s brain works, and he’s not interested in anybody beyond how he can use them to get what he wants.

Phyllis: Oh, a hunch. Got it.

Nikki: Okay, okay, enough.

Phyllis: [ Clears throat ] Have you given any thought to my plan? Getting closer to him?

Ashley: Well, yeah. You wanted me to spend more time with him, right? Uh-huh.

Phyllis: Right, right. I mean, would it kill you? You can get him to let his guard down.

Ashley: Yeah, I know. That’s why I accepted his dinner invitation, actually.

Phyllis: Good for you.

Nikki: So how did that go?

Ashley: It didn’T. He stood me up.

Phyllis: Oh, he played that game.

Ashley: It worked out for the best, though, because I was able to spend more time with jack, trying to get him to open up his eyes regarding diane.

Nikki: Did tucker ever explain himself to you?

Ashley: He did. Eventually, he showed up right when I was about to leave, and, apparently, he had some kind of an emergency with devon.

Phyllis: I believe that. I do. He’s obsessed with you. I mean, he wouldn’t blow you off on purpose.

Nikki: So how did you leave things with him?

Ashley: He still thinks he has a chance with me.

Nikki: Great. We’ve got him just where we want him. At humana we believe your healthcare should evolve with you and part of that evolution means choosing the right medicare plan for you.

Mariah: Good news? Already?

Tessa: I think I need to sit down.

Sharon: Why don’t we all sit down? If you don’t mind me joining you.

Mariah: Yes, absolutely. Yes.

Tessa: In fact, we insist.

Mariah: Okay, christine, lay it on us.

Christine: Well, a pregnant woman has responded to your adoption profile and wants to know more about you as prospective parents.

Mariah: For real? This soon?

Tessa: I can’t believe it.

Sharon: What can you tell us about her?

Christine: Well, she’s young, so she’s not at a place in her life where she feels she can raise a child.

Sharon: Well, I know all about that.

Mariah: What does this woman want to know about tessa and me?

Christine: She wants to form a relationship with whoever winds up adopting her child, but she does have some requests when it comes to communication.

Tessa: I mean, whatever will make her feel comfortable, we will do it.

Mariah: This is insane.

Tessa: [ Chuckles ] I’m so happy that she picked us.

Mariah: Did she? Or…?

Christine: Yeah, I mean, i don’t know exactly where she is in her process. I just know that you’re up for consideration.

Mariah: Okay, okay. Stay calm. We got to stay calm. We can’t get ahead of ourselves, okay?

Tessa: No, I can’T. I am just too excited.

Christine: And you’re entitled.

Mariah: Christine, we owe you so much. I mean, the way that you’ve guided us through this process and helped us put ourselves out there. I know that we were just at the beginning of this journey, but we wouldn’t have even gotten this far if it weren’t for you.

Sharon: I’m really looking forward to reading your profile. It sounds really special.

Christine: Yeah, we wanted to focus on the future they would create for this child and the loving environment they’d provide. Also the incredibly supportive, extended family who will be part of this baby’s life.

Mariah: What do we do now?

[ Chuckles ]

Christine: Well, the next step is to exchange e-mails with the young woman. Her name is joss, by the way.

Tessa: Cool name.

Christine: Yeah, maybe you’ll have a phone call with her. I have gathered some information from her social worker, and, I mean, she’s really sincere about wanting to place this child with a family.

Sharon: Well, I always like to be the voice of caution, but this sounds like a really great step.

Mariah: [ Sighs ]

Nikki: Well, tucker knows he screwed up by letting you sit there. I mean, he’s the one who invited you, and he knew that you weren’t thrilled about going to see him anyway, so he’s just going to have to try harder to convince you that he’s sincere. And if there’s anything I know about men, they love the chase.

Phyllis: You have superior logic. I bow to you.

Nikki: As you should.

Phyllis: And then when you make him jump through hoops, you finally agree to spend some time with him. Go to dinner. Let him talk about how you had a great love, he’s a changed man. Blah, blah, blah. Then you reconnect.

Nikki: No, pretend to reconnect.

Ashley: It’s not going to be easy. I can barely stand to be in the same room with that man.

Nikki: Well, I understand, but given the stakes, eliminating diane from our lives, I’m sure you can find a way to hold your nose long enough to get that done.

Diane: Phyllis has made it her mission to keep me a pariah in this town. The woman is relentless. I mean, ever since I came back, she’s been trying to create suspicion about me, and it’s working. Because of her unfounded accusations, you’re distancing yourself from me, and that hurts, which is exactly what phyllis intended.

Jack: Don’t make this all about phyllis. The timing of tucker’s return, the unfortunate coincidence of this vintage bentley — they bring up a lot of questions, and neither of you have given reassuring answers.

Diane: What can I do to convince you that there is nothing to this?

Jack: I’m not sure you can. This has been eye-opening for me. I’ve been giving you the benefit of the doubt for a long time now, but if I’m honest with myself, I still have trouble trusting you, and I’m not sure that’s ever going to change.

If you have type 2 diabetes

or high blood pressure…

Noah: Ginger ale.

Audra: Perfect. Thanks.

Noah: [ Sighs ]

Audra: What are you thinking?

Noah: [ Sighs ] You know, audra, in the future, if you need to gather your thoughts… there’s a lot of other places in town you can go. Society. Top of the tower. ‘Cause you could say that you didn’t come here intending to stir up trouble, but with you, it’s kind of just part of the package.

Audra: How long are you going to hate me?

Noah: No, audra, I don’t hate you, okay? I can never hate you. It’s just… you bring chaos wherever you go. It’s just who you are.

Audra: You’re basically banning me from your club. Can you really not bear to be in the same room with me? I hoped we could get past how things ended, at least be civil.

Noah: Come on, don’t talk to me about being civil, not after what you pulled with allie.

Phyllis: Alright, well, that was a productive meeting.

Nikki: Yes. You and I will keep digging, and ashley will handle the tucker angle.

Phyllis: I’m glad we have a plan in action.

Talia: Hello, ladies.

Nikki: Oh, my goodness. What a nice surprise. I didn’t even know you were in town.

Talia: Came straight from the airport. I hope it’s okay that I just showed up. Your housekeeper let me in.

Nikki: Oh, of course. Your timing is perfect. I mean, we just had a meeting about our pet project.

Talia: Unveiling the truth about diane jenkins. That is my favorite subject these days, too.

Phyllis: Ours all the time. Listen, you just missed ashley abbott, the third member of our group. She has a plan in action, one, hopefully, that will get us some information about diane and what she was doing in L.A.

Talia: Well, I can’t wait to hear about it. And I may have some new tidbits, too.

Nikki: Oh, well, we appreciate any information you can share with us.

Phyllis: Oh, definitely. I mean, this is a gift for us. I mean, we realize that your main objective here is to write a book on diane.

Talia: That is the goal.

Nikki: Oh, I am so sorry. Please have a seat.

Talia: Oh, thank you.

Nikki: So, what’s new on your end?

Talia: Well, the original series of articles that I had planned that was so abruptly killed and no one from the magazine would tell me why — I finally pulled the truth out of my editor.

Phyllis: What happened?

Talia: Turns out, someone with a lot of money and clout put pressure on the owner of the magazine. She was warned to lay off diane, to not run any more articles.

Nikki: Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

Phyllis: Um, yes, I am.

Nikki: It is highly likely that this influential someone is tucker mccall.

Talia: The tucker mccall?

Phyllis: The one and only.

Talia: Wow. So he could be involved in diane’s story.

Nikki: Oh, mark my words. He is involved. It’s just a matter of finding out how and why.

Tucker: As I’m sure you’ve heard, I’m doing just the opposite of expanding my company.

Victoria: Oh, yes, you’re selling off divisions. You’re banking a heavy profit, saving up all that cash for a rainy day should something, I don’t know, something might come along that you might want to acquire.

Tucker: Mm, not me. I’m simplifying my life.

Victoria: Oh, I see.

Tucker: I understand that jill has stepped back from chancellor, and I really admire her for that, you know, ’cause she’s made her mark and achieved her ambitions, and she’s got nothing left to prove. So she’s enjoying her life away from the corporate battlefield. I often think about doing the same.

Victoria: Retirement? You?

Tucker: Well, semi-retirement. Maybe right here in good, old genoa city. I always did love this place.

Victoria: [ Chuckles ] I’m sorry, but I find it a little farfetched that you’re going to just pack it all in and do what? You going to take up pickleball?

Tucker: Yeah, right? Someday you’ll understand. It kind of sneaks up on you.

Victoria: So what is your take on the chancellor-winter merger? Were you upset that your mother’s company joined forces with your son’s company? You weren’t even in the mix.

Tucker: Not at all. I couldn’t be more pleased for devon. How it all turned out. You don’t have to worry, victoria. I’m not stockpiling cash to make a run at newman. I don’t see you as an adversary.

Victoria: The thought never crossed my mind.

[ Sighs ]

Ashley: Victoria.

Victoria: Well, this has been a very interesting conversation, and I see that my food’s ready, so I’m going to go.

Tucker: I enjoyed our chat.

Victoria: Yes. Best of luck with your semi-retirement if you actually follow through with that.

Ashley: Bye.

Victoria: Bye.

Ashley: Semi-retirement. Really?

[School bells]

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Keep it quilted means

you keep it the best.

Sharon: Thank you for everything you’ve done for mariah and tessa.

Christine: It’s my pleasure.

Sharon: Brings back memories of hen you helped nick and me adopt cassie. You know, I’ll always be grateful to you for how hard you fought for us and how deeply invested you were in the outcome.

Christine: I remember when that judge announced his ruling, I broke down in tears. I was so happy for you guys and for cassie, knowing that she was with a family she loved and belonged with, who loved her.

Sharon: Now you’re helping my daughter and her wife realize their dreams of adopting a child.

Christine: Yeah, best part of my job.

Sharon: What do you think of their chances?

Christine: Well, it’s hard to say, but I do know this young woman has looked at a lot of profiles. But she reached out to mariah and tessa, I believe, because of their solid relationship, their successful careers, a great deal of family support. That all works in their favor.

Mariah: We looked over the information on the birth mother,

Christine: And?

Tessa: We would love to connect with her in any way that she feels comfortable.

Christine: I’ll make it happen.

Mariah: [ Sighs ]

Tucker: So, why do you find the notion of me wanting to work less and enjoy life more so surprising?

Ashley: Oh, because I know how driven you are, tucker. I can’t really picture you, you know, taking it easy and settling into some kind of predictable routine.

Tucker: What do you imagine when you do picture me?

[ Both chuckle ]

Ashley: I know how obsessed you are with living life on the edge and pushing your boundaries and facing new challenges, you know?

Tucker: The only challenge I’m currently focused on is proving to you that —

Ashley: How much you’ve changed. Yes, I know. If only saying it over and over and over again made it true.

Tucker: Actually, “challenge” is the wrong word. I think “opportunity” is better. It’S… it’s a chance to take what you and I have learned about love and life and finally get it right ’cause we had such a beautiful connection and can again.

Ashley: You couldn’t even be on time for dinner.

Tucker: Touché.

[ Clears throat ] Well, how about we — how about we do it over right here, right now?

Ashley: You would actually stuff down two lunches for me?

Tucker: Baby, I would actually stuff down…

Ashley: [ Chuckles ]

Tucker: …An ocean liner…

Ashley: Oh, wow.

Tucker: …If it meant that I could charm you into giving me another chance.

Ashley: Mm. I hate for you to think that your charm is actually working on me. However, I’m hungry, and I need to eat, so I don’t mind doing it the same time and place that you are here, so just remember one thing. This is not going any further, okay?

Tucker: Absolutely. I’ll be sure to moderate my expectation.

Ashley: Okay.

Tucker: [ Clears throat ] I’m stuffed — or, starving.

Ashley: Hm.

Diane: I don’t know what to say. This is beyond disappointing. Jack, I thought he’d made such progress. How could it be undone so easily? Phyllis shares some convoluted suspicion with you about tucker and me, and you just buy it without hesitation?

Jack: I didn’t say that.

Diane: No, but that’s what’s happening. She poured poison into your ear, and now you’re doubting my honesty all over again.

Jack: I will admit that it brought misgivings I thought I had buried back to the surface. Maybe I never got past them. Maybe I just held them in check for kyle’s sake or harrison’s, hoping that time would prove them wrong. My instincts tell me that they’re not. I have to get back to work.

Diane: [ Sighs ] I was taking my antidepressant daily,

Diane: Don’t even start.

Phyllis: Oh, I don’t have to. I don’t want to. I like our truce. Like it. I know you would self-sabotage. It was only a matter of time. Hey, it seems like jack has lost all faith in you. He’s probably waiting for another secret to come out. And, let’s be honest, we all know there is another secret. I know it. Jack knows it. Ashley knows it. Nikki and talia morgan. She knows it. Oh, she’s back in town. She’s doing some research on you. Oh, my gosh. You should’ve seen her face when she found out that tucker mccall was involved with you. A man of his stature — she was so excited. And you know those investigative people, they dig and dig and dig until they find what they want.

[ Sighs ] And once everything comes out, diane, the people you love the most, kyle and jack, they’ll finally know what your secret is.

Talia: So, I am enthralled by the possible connection between tucker and diane in L.A., And I love that it all turns on a vintage bentley, which then tucker tried to give away the same make and model as a gift to the young couple as they were renewing their vows?

Nikki: Yeah, tucker and diane also had a romance back in the day here in town.

Talia: A romance? Really?

Nikki: Mm-hmm. Diane is fascinating in a train wreck sort of a way, but adding a world-famous billionaire to the mix, that could push your book over to another level.

Talia: You are right about that.

Nikki: Now that they’re both back here in town, I am convinced that they have some kind of a plan, and that can’t be good.

Talia: Well, what we need now is some hard evidence, and you say ashley is working on getting that?

Nikki: Yeah. Well, I’m not going to sit back and wait for her to be successful. I have an idea of another way to get at the truth. Are you game?

Talia: Absolutely.

Tucker: You know what i remember most fondly about our time together? Just how simpatico we were. It was just effortless, you know? That’s ’cause we connected on such a deep level, and I just don’t think those kind of connections ever go away.

Ashley: Did you get that off a greeting card?

Tucker: No, I just read it in the bathroom stall.

Ashley: [ Laughs ]

Tucker: I was actually thinking about our trip to japan and the first time that we —

Ashley: Had sex?

Tucker: [ Laughs ] Well, I was going to say first time we truly connected, you know…

Ashley: Oh.

Tucker: …Opened up to each other, which was not exactly my comfort zone, as you know, so it was a big deal to me. Yes, having sex was memorable.

Ashley: I didn’t say it was memorable, actually.

Tucker: Still calling them like you see them, eh?

Ashley: I guess I am, yeah.

Tucker: Mm. We were such a good team, weren’t we? I mean, I loved supporting you, and I… I took so much pride in watching you thrive.

Ashley: Oh, wait, so everything I am, I owe to you? I don’t think so, tucker.

Tucker: No, you got it backwards. Everything I am, I owe to you. When they wanted to take me off life support, you were not about to let that happen. You fight like hell for me to have every chance I could have to recover. So it’s because of you I’m alive. I mean, my grandson — our grandson, which I’m so looking forward to.

Ashley: Such a cutie. Dominic is amazing.

Tucker: Like his grandmother.

Audra: What I pulled with allie? What are you referring to?

Noah: Ah, don’t give me that. He tried to make her feel insecure about me, about our relationship. I don’t appreciate that. I’m not going to do this with you again. I’m not going to play this stupid game.

Audra: Did it ever occur to you that I missed you? That I hate what we lost? Because I do. Look, and I have to believe that you missed me, too.

Noah: God, you’re really just a piece of work. What is this, huh? What is this? You come in here saying all this crap. Why? What, you still need my attention, my validation? What do you want from me, audra? I told you I’m not doing this anymore, okay? I’m done.

Audra: I was just being honest. I just wanted to —

Noah: Get a reaction out of me. And I gave you one. That pisses me off even more.

Audra: Why can’t you see that we have unresolved feelings to deal with? Would it really make you this crazy to see me if there wasn’t something still there? Alice loves the scent of gain so much,

Mariah: Who had the lavender lemon?

Christine: Oh, that’s me. Thank you.

Mariah: There you go.

Tessa: Your cinnamon decaf.

Sharon: Thank you.

Mariah: So, when do you think we’ll hear from joss?

Christine: I don’t know. I e-mailed her your contact information, so the ball’s in her court.

Tessa: I really hope it will be soon.

Mariah: [ Chuckles ]

Sharon: Well, this is really big stuff, tessa. She might need some time.

Mariah: Look, whether it’s today, tomorrow, or the tuesday after next, I just — I am so ready to start a family with you.

Allie: Audra, hello. I didn’t expect to see you here. Hi. I had a break and wanted to talk about our plans.

Noah: Your timing’s perfect.

Audra: Thanks for that suggestion you made about going to society. Allie.

Allie: See ya. Hopefully not anytime soon.

Tucker: You know what I’d like to do with little dominic? Take him to a park with you. Watch him play, and —

[ Clears throat ] And just spend some time with him together, take turns spoiling him rotten.

Ashley: Yeah, not a chance.

Tucker: Excuse me?

Ashley: You got your shot. You got your do-over. Don’t push it.

Tucker: Ashley, have I done something to offend you in some way?

Ashley: I heard you out. And just for the record, it’s going to take a lot more than that for me to be convinced that you’ve changed in any kind of meaningful way. Thanks for lunch.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Tucker: Mccall.

Nikki: I hope this isn’t a bad time.

Tucker: Oh, no, I just finished lunch.

Nikki: Are you free to stop by the ranch? There’s something I’d like to talk to you about in person.

Tucker: How could I refuse you, nikki?

Nikki: Excellent. See you shortly.

Diane: Unlike you, I am not looking for trouble, and I’m certainly not trying to create it.

Phyllis: Mm. Well, even if that were true, and we both know it isn’t, god, diane, you’ve wreaked so much havoc. You can’t live out the rest of your days in peace. You’ve betrayed so many people. You’ve lied. I mean, you certainly can’t live here. You never had a chance with jack. All you’re going to get from him is strained acceptance, and that’s it.

Diane: [ Breathes deeply ]

[ Voice breaking ] You’re right. There’s, um… there’s something I haven’t told you. Something about my time in los angeles, something that I’m ashamed to admit.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

need to know,” right? Listen, if we keep this up, I’m not going to get any work done. So I can’t convince you to play hooky? Your powers of persuasion are considerable, but we are both very busy people.

[ Cellphone rings ] And I got to get — okay, I’m sorry. I just got to get — I got to take this. Okay. Mm. Go.

[ Sighs lightly ] Olivia… you’ve been here like 20 days in a row. Why don’t you go home? At least take the morning off. Let me handle this for you. I’m all set. Thank you. We’re partners, aren’t we? And for the most part, things have been going well, right? You know, I got to commend you on the way that you handled all the details of brando’s memorial. Thank you. I just wanted to do what I could — so why don’t we just quit while we’re ahead, okay? Why don’t you let me buy you out of the hotel before the whole thing gets real nasty? Because we all know that’s where this is headed. Marshall: There she is! Hey, babe! Marshall. What are you doing here? You’ve been studying for these mcats for almost a year. You think I wouldn’t show up on your big day to wish you luck? It’s a good thing that you’re here, because if I crash and burn on these mcats today, I’m holding you personally responsible. Now, I recognize that you have a few last-minute details that you need to settle before we can actually pick a wedding date. But some of these venues, I mean, they are booked out years in advance. Okay. [ Sighs ] Oh, I don’t know. Whoa. Oh. What about that one? Okay, at this point, if one of us likes it, it’s a “yes.”

[ Chuckles ]

[ Laughs ] I feel like everyone is marrying their fiancé in the next 18 months. What do you think, t? Got any ideas? Oh, tj? I bet him and molly have dozens of wedding invitations on their fridge right now.

[ Chuckles ] Portia: Tj? Huh? I’m sorry. What was the question?

[ Chuckles ] Aww. Well, now I guess the question becomes… who is more interesting than us? Hey, I thought you had a shift this morning. Uh, terry gave me a few days off. Really? That’s nice of her. I, uh, I heard they always work the new nurses to the bone. Oh, they do.

[ Chuckles ] Yeah? Well, I’m — I’m glad that terry’s being so accommodating with your pregnancy. I’m chairman of the board, remember? You can’t just drop off the face of the earth and leave me holding the bag. Call me, valentin.

[ Cellphone thumps ] Oh, sorry to hear you’re having troubles with valentin. I bet you are.

[ Breathes sharply ] Have you and drew been able to stop the aurora stock from free-falling yet? Ages ago, thanks. But then, drew and I know that we can trust each other. How is that working with you and valentin? Mr. Cassadine, thank you for joining us. Ah, your officers said you have some questions for me about what might have happened to lucy coe. We do. Hmm. Well, I’m more than happy to answer them… once my attorney gets here. Naturally. You can wait in there.

[ Indistinct conversations ] I guess… it’s too much to hope that he might just confess. We don’t know that there’s enough for him to confess to. Oh, come on. The evidence suggests otherwise. He had a date with lucy when she disappeared. We’re well within our rights to hold him for questioning. Yeah. But for now, he’s got an alibi. Yeah. Of course, because he always has other people do his dirty work for him. Anna, walk with me for a moment? When I first came back to the job, you and laura confided in me that you were working together to prove that victor killed luke spencer… and that he’s up to some even grander scheme. Do you want an update? That’s not it. Anna, as your friend, I’ve given you space to handle that investigation. But as your colleague, I need to make sure that your vendetta isn’t clouding your judgment. It’s not. It’s not. Fine. It’s fueling my resolve, but I see everything clearly. Okay, well, then I have to ask — with their connection so well-known, do you think victor could have murdered lucy coe? Absolutely.


[ Indistinct conversations ] Hey. I thought we were meeting out front. Oh, damn. I didn’t realize it was already 10:00.

[ Groans ] Did you at least remember to pack? That I did.

[ Chuckles ] Here I thought you couldn’t wait for our weekend getaway, and now I show up and you’re all distracted… uh, yeah. Last night was crazy. Uh, things got pretty swamped here. It’s a long story. Well, if the safety of the citizens of port charles is at stake, I can’t really drag you away from your duties. So if you need to postpone, that’s totally fine. That was the furthest thing from my mind. Oh, okay, great. Then, uh, let’s go. Are you sure? Because you were ready to call it real quick. Trina, do you not want to go away with me? Where is this coming from? You just got done saying I was doing a good job. I’m not doubting your adaptability or your business acumen. Then what is the problem? In order for this partnership to work, we’re gonna have to trust each other, and there’s no way in the world that I am ever gonna trust you.

[ Scoffs ] So much for being civil. This is my civil. When you kept sonny from all of us, you didn’t just hurt carly and sonny’s kids. You hurt everybody who cares for him. Sonny and I share a firstborn son. We share a grandchild, so that includes me. Now, sonny may be okay with you now. That doesn’t mean that everyone else is going to be. So, again, why don’t you just let me buy you out of this hotel for everyone’s sake? We can all move on with our lives. Sorry, liv. No deal. You’re stuck with me. Everything okay here? Peachy. You know what, nina? I’m gonna let you take care of all of this. Turns out I do need a breather after all. I hate to cut this short, you guys. I really do. But I want to get to the hospital early so that I can wish epiphany good luck on her mcats. Wish her luck from me, too. I will. You know, I think that it’s great that you are helping her prep for her test, and I know your support means a lot to her. Epiphany is my friend. And she’s important to your father, so… it’s my pleasure. Mm. Mwah. I’ll see you later.

[ Chuckles ] I see you smiling. Why you — why are you so happy all of a sudden? This family. Now, we have had our ups and downs, that’s to be sure, but I cannot say how thankful I am that you and marshall have settled in a good place. Yeah. Yeah, me too. I mean, it’s a huge 180 from last year. And of course, I’m sure it helps to understand the burden he was carrying all that time. Wait a minute. You want to run that by me again? How is you tanking the mcats — which is not going to happen, by the way — my fault? You walked into this hospital,

my hospital. Today? A year ago. Oh. And you get me to tell you how, for my entire adult life, I’ve had this fantasy about going to med school, becoming a doctor after decades of nursing.

You encouraged me. Yes, I did. Why would you do that?! Who goes up to near-strangers and just encourages them?! Someone had to! And I’m glad it was me. Okay, officer falconeri, I am here. What’s so damned important? You haven’t heard from lucy since last night, have you? No. No, I haven’T. Why do you ask? Seems she’s gone missing. What do you mean “missing”? She was last seen on the docks. There were signs of foul play. What kind of signs? There was evidence of a gun being fired. A bullet casing was found near where she was on the pier. Jordan: I need you to level with me. What exactly did lucy get mixed up with? Uh, well, um… she was helping me with my investigation into victor. Helping how? Honestly, I just needed one piece of information, and then… she was getting in over her head, so I tried to pull her out, but I-I forgot how stubborn lucy can be. How hard did you really try to extract her? Well, I-I-I brought martin back here, because I thought that that would at least put an end to her ability to see victor. Well, clearly, this move didn’t work. No. I think it was too late. It might have cost her her life.

[ Cellphone ringing ] Coast guard search and rescue. Maybe they found evidence that lucy survived. This is commissioner ashford. What?


Pretty obvious that this thing with you and olivia is not — not working. Yeah, you warned me what I’d be in for if I bought into this place. I was hoping that I was wrong. Well, she pretty much came out and said that I’d be a good partner… that’s a step in the right direction, right? …If I didn’t do what I did to your family. Even though I’m looking out for them now. I’m quite sure it was not easy for your grandfather to open up about his diagnosis…

[Scoffs] Especially to me. And I made a point… to tell him that I don’t want to hear his excuses about why he abandoned your dad and me. But, t, I got to say, man, it never occurred to me how — how difficult it was to make that decision then and then trying to own up to it now. Well, the world has changed since marshall found out about his schizophrenia. Now, he comes from a time when, if you admitted you had a mental illness, that was considered a weakness, a source of shame, which is ridiculous, but you of all people, you know how much courage and how much strength it takes to reach out. You’ve certainly helped enough people. I’m sure, if the time came, you wouldn’t hesitate to rely on family. Well, here’s hoping. If you don’t mind my asking… have you and portia talked about having kids?

[ Exhales deeply ] T, there’s a — there’s a lot to consider first. Portia: There’s no reason

to even think about curtis having symptoms. I mean, a predisposition, that’s no guarantee that the illness will actually develop. Thank god you were spared that. Yeah. I mean, it looks like I’m in the clear. The only reason I would get tested is if I were to have children, because they could be affected. Nina: We aren’t interrupting, are we? It was a pipe dream, something for me to think about when I was bored or fed up with arrogant doctors.

[ Sighs ] No. The point is that I was happy and liked the road I was on and dreaming of the road not taken. But now, I’m — I’m — I’m at a fork in the road, and it’s all your fault! Now, no, no, no, no, epiphany. All I said was if going to medical school was something you wanted to look into, then you should. You called me “dr. Johnson.” Mm-hmm.

[ Sighs ] And now… all these years, I could say to myself, “epiphany johnson, you would have been a great doctor, especially compared to some of these arrogant yahoos.” It was something… for me to dream about, comfort myself with. Epiphany, how is — how is that gonna change? If I bomb these mcats, the dream is over. No more imaginary genius doctor. I’ll just be a real-life failure. It is the early stages of the investigation, okay? We don’t want to get locked into a theory and miss out on something that could be possibly important. Commissioner. Anna. Is there any news about lucy? The coast guard have finished their preliminary search. As almost a whole day has passed, they’re moving the operation from rescue to recovery. So, lucy — my lucy is presumed dead? Hmm? No, no, I’m sorry. I do not accept that. Not without sufficient evidence. And a single bullet casing is hardly proof of anyone’s demise. Come to think of it, what exactly is the proof she was even on the docks, huh? Much less went into the water. We did find her shoe. Alright, for the sake of argument, let’s say that it was lucy’S. It was probably a high-heeled stiletto. Is it not also equally plausible if somebody fired a shot — one shot — and missed, but that lucy got away? She was running. She lost her shoe in the process. I have teams searching the city to see if she might be hiding out anywhere. What exactly does he have to do with it? Hey, uh, marty, come on. Let’s go for a walk. I should let baldwin know. Yeah. He and lucy share a daughter. Good thinking. We should notify lucy’s business partners. Did you want to handle that? Anna? Anna!

[ Door opens ] Oh, hello. How may I help you? You listen to me. Even if we never find lucy’s body, this will escalate into a murder charge, and you will be the number-one suspect. Oh, I very much doubt it’ll go that far. Better hope that it doesn’t, because one way or the other, I will make it my business to destroy you… anna. …And then you will wish that this had gone through the courts, so my suggestion to you is that you just start talking.

[ Breathing shakily ] Is valentin unscrupulous and amoral? Obviously. Has he been good for elq’s bottom line? Unquestionably. Right, compared to what the bottom line would have been if the aurora merger would’ve went through? Mm. Now, ned, come on. Let’s not — let’s not pretend that you’re in any position to lecture me about business. What’s going on here? What is this? Ned versus michael. Round 72.

[ Sighs ] Michael: You were the one leading the charge to keep elq in the family. Then, when what was best for the company meant that you couldn’t be ceo, you changed your tune really quick. Ned: Let’s just take a step back. You tried to drive me out of elq. That is not true. By offering me a figurehead position. What do you want me to say? Drew was the obvious choice for ceo if the merger would have happened. Okay, that’s enough. Both of you, stop it! With you as his second and me pushed to the sidelines! Drew was taking the biggest risk, okay?! He was going to control the largest block of stock. That is how business works, ned. And if you cared about elq as much as you claim you do, valentin would be gone! Honey, willow, what’s the matter? What’s wrong? What’s wrong? Hey, hey, willow. You okay?

[ Breathing shallowly ]


Marshall: You done? Excuse me? Am i done? You done done? Good. Now, take that energy, take that passion, and focus. Focus it on medicine. Focus it on helping people. Focus it on being the best at what you do, ’cause you know you are, and you love it. Are you accusing me of the sin of pride? Deary, there are worse reasons to go to hell.

[ Laughs ] Only a jazz man could talk about perdition like that.

[ Chuckles ] You, sir, are a terrible influence. If I was gonna influence you, it would be to set aside your fears. You’re not — you’re not just a nurse. You’re epiphany johnson. You know all. You see all. Fear runs from you and hides. You’ve been up till the crack of dawn studying for these mcats. Girl, you got this. I thank you for the encouragement. Hey, I’m — I’m just stating facts. What if I don’t pass? So what? So what, epiphany? A valiant effort is not a failure. Far from it. It’s — it’s brave, epiphany. It’s — it’s courageous. And it makes me so very proud of you.

[ Hurried footsteps ] Oh, good. Oh, good. I’m not too late.

[ Breathes sharply ] I wanted to wish you luck on the mcats. Not that you’re gonna need it.

[ Laughter ] Well, thank you. I couldn’t have made it without you. Yes, you could, and you got this. Okay. Okay.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Clears throat ] I guess, uh… I guess I should get down there. Good luck.

[ Sighs ] Willow, is it the baby? I’m fine. I just — I need some air. Well. Are the two of you proud of yourselves? Nina, how are you? Good. We seem to keep missing each other. Oh, yeah. We have to finally catch up one of these days. But before I forget, how did chase’s show go?

[ Sighs ] Brought the house down. Really? That’s wonderful. Yeah. Yay! Excuse me for a second. Hey, sonny, can I speak with you in private for a moment? Yeah. Lead the way. Excuse me. So, what’s on your mind? Sonny, I’m aware [Sighs] That you know of my father’s medical condition. Yeah, I do. So then you’ll probably understand where I’m coming from. Which is…? Well…

[ Sighs ] I’ve been doing a lot of reading about genetic counseling, and I saw that there are tests to determine a person’s predisposition to alzheimer’S. Now, I’m not even asking you to divulge your — your — your decision, but I made a decision not to find out about certain risk factors that could affect me, and [Sighs] — And I’m — I’m just wondering if I made the right choice. Of course I want to go away with you. But…?

[ Scoffs ] A comic convention was never really on my bucket list of things to do. I’m sorry. No, I — I get it. Um. Not everyone’s into comics, and, uh, those of us who are — we can be a little enthusiastic, and sometimes that enthusiasm can be a little overwhelming. Which I totally get, and that’s why I’m going. You made such a huge effort to learn why I’m so fascinated about art and art history. No effort required. You make it interesting. And I know you’ll help me see why you’re passionate about this entirely different kind of art. Hey, cabrera. I need to speak to you before you take off, alright? Yes, detective. I will be right back. Okay. Why are there members of law enforcement speaking to my client before I got here? We’re just having a friendly chat. I certainly hope no one said anything that could even remotely be construed as attempting to coerce a confession. Oh, as the lady said, we were just catching up. What a relief. Now, my client will be happy to answer your questions after I speak with him privately. But first, is mr. Cassadine being charged with something? Not at the moment, but we are within our rights to keep him here for 24 hours. If there’s even a slight chance of that, we’re going to need some water. So you can dust the glass for prints? Nice try. [ Scoffs ] He was the head of the wsb. You don’t think law enforcement has his prints? You make a fair point. I’m treating him to the vending machines anyway. Come on. Oh, come on. Don’t look so worried. Promise I won’t make a break for it. Marty, look, for what it’s worth… till there’s proof, there’s always hope. Yeah. I know. Yeah. For what it’s worth, if lucy’s alive and well, I’ll never take her for granted again. I will also make whoever did this pay… dearly.

[ Breathing shakily ] It certainly wasn’t my intention to upset willow. Oh! But michael was the one who started this argument. Oh, come on, ned. You started it when you betrayed the family. Okay, knock it off, both of you two! You listen to yourselves? You sound like a couple of children on the playground. “You started it.” “No, you started it.” Now, listen, I have been part of this family long enough to know that there is enough backstabbing and lying to make the starks and the lannisters think it’s over the top. But business aside, we always come back together. You know why? Because we are family. It’s about time the two of you started remembering that. Brook lynn? Brook lynn, is that you?

[ Gasps ]

[ Screams ]


ickly ] Willow, oh, my god. Are you okay? What happened? I — I was by the boathouse, and there were — there were footprints coming from the lake and — and what looked like drops of blood. I went into the boathouse, and there was a woman. I couldn’t see her face, but could it be whoever killed brando? God. I’ll call dante. Yeah, okay. Can you call security? Yeah, of course. Of course. Michael, what are you doing? The killer’s still here. I’m not letting them get away. -Michael, no! -Michael, stop! What — are you crazy?! Victor’s alibi is rock solid. We’re gonna have to release him. Now, I could have a plainclothes officer tail him, but… ned quartermaine just called and said that a woman wandered in from the lake and is trespassing on the property. Oh, my god, is it lucy? They can’t get a good look at her, but I’m gonna send a squad car over there, okay? Okay. I’d like you to check the site personally, though. Yeah. Yeah, will do. Yeah. Ah. Why don’t you stick around here and, uh, keep an eye on victor? I’ll report back to you. You do that. Tj. Dr. Ashford. Dr. Ashford. I want to apologize if I was too direct at brando’s funeral. When you warned that people might start spreading rumors about willow and me? It seems the only person doing that is you. Well, again, I am sorry if that seemed out of line — no, it didn’t seem out of line. It was out of line, ms. Reeves. But I’m not one to hold grudges, so I can accept your apology, as long as you stay out of my business and willow’S. But, see, you’re wrong there, because willow and michael, they are my business, because they are my grandson’s parents. So if something is happening, then I should — but there isn’t — there isn’T. You’ve got it all wrong. Then, please, please enlighten me. Could you please? Because every time I see you with willow, it seems like there’s a lot more going on than just being friends.

[ Scoffs ] So please, tell me — what’s really happening between you and willow? Sonny, I’m not trying to push you, okay? I just — I need your wisdom, your experience, your insights on my decision. You know, I considered getting tested for alzheimer’s to see if I had the gene. And then I-I didn’t want to go through with it, because not knowing or knowing is not gonna change the outcome, and I didn’t want to keep waiting for it to happen. So you’re saying I made the right decision? If you had schizophrenia, it would have shown by now, right? Oh, almost certainly. Then why would you get tested if it wouldn’t be about knowing your own fate? Well, no, it’d be about… it’d be about getting facts so I can make decisions about the future of my family. I don’t know what your plans are, but if I think… they’re what I think they are, there’s your answer. You two seem rather cozy. What, that — that kiss? I’m a jazz musician, portia. This kind of thing happens to me all the time.

[ Laughs ] It must be so difficult for you. Yeah. Yeah, I — I barely notice it.

[ Breathes sharply ] Well, I know you two have been seeing each other… but it seems a bit to me like you’re getting serious? Well [Chuckles] Portia, I wasn’t going to broach something like that on her big day. Well, for what it’s worth, I think you’re very good for epiphany. Well, she’s been good for me, too. For so long, I-I was worried about how my — my family, the people closest to me, would react to my diagnosis. And here come this woman, someone I just happened to meet, and she couldn’t have been more supportive. So I learned — I finally — I finally learned it’s best to get — get these things out in the open right away. You can’t walk around — you can’t live with some huge secret that can undermine your whole relationship. Anna: Anything? There was no security camera footage from the docks. Okay. But a flight path was locked for a drone last night. A drone? Thanks to the new york state division of tourism. They were shooting aerial footage of the lake. With any luck, they caught something and we’ll finally get some answers.


No, I will not explain my relationship with willow. I don’t owe you any clarifications, and neither does she, because it’s none of your business. I know you believe that, but i don’t believe that. Nina, you already have a reputation for coming between people, okay? Don’t allow that to be truer than it already is.

[ Scoffs ] Curtis had to go. He — he’ll catch up with you later, both of you. Yeah. Okay. Um… I’ll see you later, sonny. Mm-hmm. Well, I guess we both are gonna have busy days ahead of us. What was that about, with you and tj? Stop! Michael! Michael, stop, don’t be stupid!

[ Lowered voice ] Liv, liv. Just stop, stop. Stay back.

[ Gasps ] Oh, my god. The division of tourism sent the drone footage in its entirety. Once the time frame is isolated, I’ll bring it out and we’ll review it together. -Great. Thank you. -Okay.

[ Sighs ] Where’s robert? Where did dante go? There was an incident at the quartermaines’. Um, may not be related to lucy’s disappearance, but, uh, we’ll know more soon. How are you? Do you really care? I see why you would say that. You realize, don’t you, that none of this would have happened — none of it — if you hadn’t blackmailed me. I never would have left town, and lucy would never have ended up in victor’s crosshairs. It is a bit more complicated than that — no, no, anna, I don’t think it is. See, the last time I was with lucy, she told me what was going on, how the two of you were at odds. That it wasn’t just me with valentin. You’ve been leaning on her. That you’d wrapped her up in some misguided attempt to…take down victor. Now, how desperate would you have to be, how obsessed to involve lucy in something like that? I-I really regret involving her in this. Why did you wrap her up in the first place? Well, the risks, they weren’t that great. Yeah, but what risks? What exactly was your goal? Yeah. There, see. There it is. Well, now you and me got a whole other problem, ’cause there’s obviously more to this than you’re willing to tell me. And I want to know why.


[ Breathes deeply ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Whispering ] Here goes nothing.

[ Chuckles quietly ] Hey, what’s going on? I didn’t expect to see you again so soon. If you came here to wish epiphany luck, I’m afraid you just missed her. Mm-hmm. Oh, I don’t think epiphany needs any luck, though I wish her well.

[ Chuckles ] No, I came to see the both of you. Curtis, what’s going on? Well, you see, I’ve been doing some thinking, and I have changed my mind. I think I want to explore genetic counseling after all. That’s it. Officially, I am now all yours.

[ Sighs ] About time. Thank you. I’ve known tj since he was a kid. I can’t imagine what you guys would be disagreeing about. Uh, just add tj to the very long list of people who are not my biggest fans. You sure? Yeah. In fact, I shouldn’t be surprised, because it turns out he’S… quite close to willow. The woman you saw — is she inside? Hey, look, if there’s nothing else, I’d like to get willow home. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go, go. We’ll call if we need anything. Is it lucy? No, it’s not. Um… before you go in there, robbie…

[ Breathes deeply ] …You’re gonna need to prepare yourself, okay? For what? You need to see for yourself. I’m just asking you to put your trust in me. I-I know that that’s a lot to ask. Well, what a sublimely english gift for understatement you have. I’m gonna do everything in my power to bring lucy home safely. What if that’s no longer possible? Then I will go after whoever is responsible and I will bring them to justice. Okay, I have the footage queued up to the hour of lucy’s disappearance. Okay. Great. Okay. You may not want to see this. Why? ‘Cause I’m just a civilian? Believe me, I’m staying. Well, this shot’s too far. Can we click on it? Yeah. The drone was hovering over the lake. I can zoom in.

[ Gunshot ]

[ Gunshot ] What the… anna? Tell me the police won’t find any evidence connecting you to this woman’s disappearance.

[ Scoffs ] Oh, I wouldn’t worry about that. No, I trust anna and robert will be far too distracted to be worried about little old me. Oh, my god. Hello, robert.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

You’re looking for a job with spec? Yeah, we, we talked about this, remember? But then we got sidetracked when you realized Jennifer was the one who played Dan Gwen with her car. Just keep your voice down. Yeah. Sorry. I guess if I’m gonna work in the newspaper, bier needs to be a bit more discreet. But like I said, I, not to start as an executive, just wherever you can use.

Sorry, Jack. What’d you say? I’m afraid my answer is no.

You can’t tell anyone you saw me. No one can know that I’m here. Why? What’s going on? And what’s with the get up? I’ve been vanished from Salem. Here. Sit up. Mothers wanna. God, I’ve been calling, texting her for hours. No response. I’m starting to get really worried. I’m so sorry. Do you have any idea where she might be?

No, I don’t. All I know is that Eugene Damara forced her to leave town.

What are you doing here?

If my dad or your brother did put Ralph up in doing something to ste, there’s gotta be a trail, right? And maybe they’re still in contact with him. Worth looking into. I already tried hacking these email accounts. He’s got it well protected. Well, if it’s der, how maybe. All it would take is any other high level to merit password.

I could work my way in through back the, I don’t have a high enough clearance level for that, but maybe I could get into my dad’s. I asked you a question son, and I’d like an answer now. Uh, Stephan Beam to give me our divorce papers. That’s the errand you had to run. When I was leaving the building, I ran into my attorney and he informed me the papers were ready.

So you rushed over here to personally deliver them? I did. But imagine you’re anxious to get married. Just as I’m anxious to cut ties with Gabby. So yeah, I got here as soon as I could. Then I assumed their son. Not yet,

but as soon as they are, our marriage will be over and the two of you will be free to live your happily ever after,

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Xander, look, I wanna help you. I do, but I, I just don’t think that bringing you onto the paper at this time is a good idea. I need to explain, Jack. I I get it. You do. Of course. I’m just not good enough. And look, I know I have some of the skills I might need to help you, but I like the integrity, the, the decency, the ethics.

You know, if you need someone to clean out your gutters or smuggle some diamonds, I’m your man. But to sully the hallowed holes of the spectator by hiring a scandal like me, I mean, you’ve been insult to the entire third estate, wouldn’t it? Fourth estate, huh? The press is known as the fourth estate. I see.

I top of everything else, I’m ignorant. I mean, just forget it was a stupid idea. It was not, it was not a stupid idea. Look, my decision has nothing to do with you and your, your character, your, your capabilities. And as a matter of fact, it is. It’s not about you at all. And then who is it about when

vanished from som? By whom? EJ Dara. Yet you are still here? Yeah, but he doesn’t know that. Thank God. So this visit, it needs to stay between us. Fine. I know I’m gonna regret asking this. What did you do to anger EJ so badly that you are banished from Salem?

I know that. Look, I saw it every time I caught you with your hand in the cookie jar. Well, can I say I have a, uh, wicked suites? If, if you are after suites, you’d be at your sister’s bakery, not sculpting around my office. Now tell me, Johnny, what have I caught you doing now, son? I’m losing my patience. Okay?

Okay. I will, uh, I’ll tell you. Well, I am here.

I came here to apologize for what? I’ve had some time to think and I realized that you were right about Ava.

Go on. She did lie to us. She just wanted to scam our family, and, and it was right after Uncle Jake died and I, I, it, I believed that she really was grieving and I wanted to comfort her, you know, felt good to be needed. None of it was real. I tried to tell you, son, I know,

I’m really sorry, dad. I, I, I feel like a total idiot. For buying her act. You really did care about her, didn’t you? I thought she cared about me too. The truth is she never cared about me. She was using me to get to you, which is what you said she was doing all along and you were right. You were a thousand percent right.

So, EJ is furious with you because you faked a marriage to Jake so that you could inherit his shares. It was Gabby’s idea. Oh God can’t believe she convinced you to put a wedding ring on a dead man’s finger. A man that I loved. Look, Jake and I were going to be married, and if he hadn’t been gunned down in cold blood, we would be married right now looking.

He proposed to me right before he got shot. I mean, look, we even picked out our engagement ring. I know, because that is the same engagement ring that Xander gave to me.

What does Gwen have to do with me working at the Spectator? Well, as I told you today, I’m checking her out of the hospital, which is wonderful. I’m sure she’s thrilled. She is, but she’s also worried. I mean, she doesn’t have a job. She doesn’t have a place to live. I, I’ve told her she can come home with me and I, I offered her a position at the paper.

So, I mean, it’s a huge operation. There must be more than one opening. There is perfect. And you can hire both of us. Sander, As much as I’d like to, I can’t. And why? Because if I did, my newsroom would turn into a fight club.

You hit ej, but And he’s not making you leave town too. I already left town. I live in Seattle. I don’t remember. Right. Sorry. I, uh, I got distracted. Picturing you going all Anderson sofa, . You’re into mma. Yeah, who is it? And just when I thought I couldn’t like you anymore. So what happened after you popped dj?

Uh, he was going to have me arrested. But your brother stopped him. He was there. Yeah. I tracked DJ down in his office. Yeah, when my brother is currently working as his right hand man. So why would he go to bat for you? He didn’t. He did? For you? For me. It’s to show his gratitude for what I did over the summer in Hong Kong.

You don’t have to be modest trip. You can say it. You saved my life.

You and your brother, Joey. While it is something that we will both be very proud of, especially because we both think you’re. Which we made embarrassingly obvious as I recall. Yeah, yeah. You kind of did. Well anyway. That’s why Leera my defense, maybe he really does care about me. It surprises you. No, it’s just am.

It doesn’t take me seriously. You know, he doesn’t see me as a capable, ambitious adult to him. I’m still the little girl in pigtails who followed him around when we were kids. More pigtails? No, not by choice.

I don’t know. Trip. Maybe I’d have an easier time if I just conformed a little more. I traded in the hoodie and sneakers for suit? No, when they don’t do that. Don’t change for anyone. You are amazing exactly the way you are.

Well, if I’m so amazing, what does my brother refuse to gimme a job?

This all looks pretty straightforward. I think it’d be best if you had a witness for your signature. I’d be happy to be that witness. So, which one of you wants to sign first?

I do.

I cannot wait to be rid of. Once and for all.

Fight Club. You’re saying Gwen and I are gonna be brawling at the office? Not, not literally, but tensions can run high and it is newspapers so there can be long hours and late nights. Wait, you’re not worried I’m gonna cheat on my wife. Are you? Of course not. Good cuz I love Sarah with all my heart and you know, I care about Gwen but his, for anything romantic, that ship has sailed.

I’m over her. Of course. I know. I’m just not sure that Gwen is over you.

Please, please tell me you are not still carrying a torch for that bozo Sanda. Why would you say that? Well, because when I brought up your former engagement ring, you got a little annoyed. I did not. Mm. Anyway, we’re talking about your love life here, not mine.

Tell me, tell me about this scam that you ran on ej. There’s not much more to tell. I was outta my mind with grief and Gabby took advantage of it. She really ambushed you here in the hospital. Yeah. Jake’s body wasn’t even cold and she is pitching me on all the clash that I’m gonna make if I pretend to be his.

The proverbial cat is now out of the bag. EJ found out that the marriage wasn’t real. He’s in and now she’s out. Well, that’s not your fault. She still owes you. So how about you take your problems to her instead of with me? Oh, because Gabby’s got problems over own. Well, what are you waiting for?

You know, you might be alive again, but you’re dead to me now.

I don’t care what Ralph says. If you don’t have heart anymore, Your turn, Lee.

All right. Well Lee, she’s all yours and you are free to marry the man you love following. You’re free to chase your precious Chloe Lean. You know, I’m gonna go ahead and file these. Because if you filed them, I wouldn’t want their authenticity to be questioned. See, I don’t want there to be any doubt that this marriage is finally and permanently.

Over.

I thought you already worked for Damara. Yeah. In the ass end of nowhere, Alaska. Right. I mean, nothing against the state. Really good people. It’s just. It’s not my home and I hate the weather, and so I want Lee to get me transferred here. Give me a promotion, which I totally deserve. That can mean I’d show him up.

None. The shins can’t have that. God forbid, little sister out Shine the first warrant. Son, this sounds pretty sexist. That one’s very sexist. But sadly, it’s still a man’s world. Well, look, I saw that move. You did the get away from my dad in Hong Kong. You can go toe-to-toe with any man. But if what I did over there, what you and Joey did, if that offended you in any way offended me.

Of course not. You’ve saved my life and I’m so grateful. I hope I made that clear and didn’t I just read about you saving another woman’s life by the rowing yourself at a window. Yeah, I guess I’m a little old school like that, always wanting to be the nine shining. Guess I’m a little ashamed to admit. I find that kind of hot.

Oh, relax Lance. A lot. I’m just checking out your hand.

Must have been some punch. There was actually more than one. Really? Who else did you hit? I am Wendy,

you all right? Yeah, I’m fine. Just, uh, thinking about everything a did to me, it was like getting punched in the face. Not painful, huh? I just, I, I, I can’t believe that I defended. You know, I even after she cop to defrauding our family, I actually told you that it didn’t matter to me that she lied to us, that she stole from us.

And I, I don’t know what else to say other than that woman is very persuasive. Hmm. And you and my son, Uh, less so. Excuse me. Sorry Johnny, but I’m having a little trouble believing this. Mayor Culper of yours. When I told Ava to leave Salem, you looked at me with sheer hatred and swore that you’d make me pay.

So I have a temper. Wonder who I got that from? Your mother. But the charm that you use to cloak what you are really up to, that that you inherited from yours truly, and despite all of my demer dna. Still managed to get played by Vitale. You say that, but I wonder if you believe it or if you are the one playing me.

What’s going on? Uh, I was just asking your brother how he ped up his knuckles. Uh, you okay? Yeah. No, it’s nothing. Good. Well, in that case, Wendy, it’s so good to see you. Okay. Wow. It’s, uh, good to see you too. Joey Trip told me about your mom. We’re really glad she’s okay. Thanks. Yeah, no, we’re all incredibly.

So what are you doing in Salem? Oh, I was hoping to get a job here, but my brother’s paying a total to, Oh, I can relate to that. Are you hilarious? Where are you staying? I’m still sort of figuring that out. There’s no way I’m crashing with Lee, but I can’t really afford a hotel. Oh, you can stay with us.

Did Gwen tell. That she still has feelings for me.

Uh, Gwe Gwen. No, no, no, no. Actually it’s just, uh, just an impression I got Say no more. Your daughter has to come first. But for the record, Jack, if you did take us both on. I’ve never lead Gwen on and Gwen’s determined to get her life back on track too, and I wanna support her in that, help her make better decisions than she has in the past.

So, you know, support her to, to learn from her mistakes so that she doesn’t make them again. Oh, come on Gwen. I’m not gonna ask you to do anything that you haven’t done before. That’s what I’m afraid of. So what is it exactly that you want me to do? Help me get back at ej. What do you mean get back at ej?

As you know, I am not the kind of person who responds well to threats. EJ needs to pay. He needs to pay for thinking that he can threaten me and run me outta Salem. All right, so here’s the deal. I just need you to get close. Get him like you, and then No, no. I’m not going to infiltrate the Dara family. I’ve done that once before.

It turned out to be a bloody disaster. I’m not asking you to infiltrate anything. I am just asking you to cozy up to ej. I can’t. You can’t. While I certainly can’t because if he finds out that I am still here, he’s gonna have me arrested and thrown in Statesville. Oh. Oh, you remember Statesville? Yeah. That place that you begged me to break you out of and I.

No questions asked. That was only for a few hours and that is also because you threw me under the bloody bus. Okay. Well that is not the point is it? The point is, I was the only person who could help you back then. Just like you are the only person who can help me. No, we are even, and I don’t have to help you with anything.

Okay. You want me to beg? I’ll beg. I may not have a husband or a home or a job, but I’ve still got my dignity and I refuse to tuck my tail between my legs and run because ej Dara told me to, I don’t care if he hates me, that he will not disrespect me, and I would go after him myself if I could in a heartbeat, But I can.

I need help. I need your help. Come on Gwen. What do you have to lose?

Look, I am admitting to you that you’re right. Why is that so hard to accept? It’s never happened before. Like I said, I’ve had some time to cool off and reflect. And I came around on Ava, came around on something else too. Oh, you’ve always said that my place is here at Damara. You are right.

After years fighting me, you’ve just suddenly changed your mind. This, this whole thing with Ava has, has clarified a lot for me. You know, I. About loyalty, legacy, what I want in life, and that’s to work here with me. Guy. I know I’ve resisted it for a lot of years, but maybe to use your words. It’s time for me to grow up, learn the family business.

What are you working on these days anyway? Oh, dad, you’re uh, computer slacked. What’s your password?

Oh, it looks like someone else also forgot. We live in Seattle. No, I don’t get it inside. Joke. Oh, you guys have inside jokes now. That’s awesome. Oh, don’t worry about it. It’s not that funny. Okay, so when are you guys uh, headed back home? As soon as I hear from my mom Sure. Hasn’t been able to reach her. She all right?

I think so, but I just wanna make sure and then we can head back west. Well, I mean, we don’t have to leave quite yet. Oh, Kayla’s better now. I just assumed she’s not even outta the hospital. I think we should at least stick around and help out. And if Wendy’s gonna be staying with us, then well, I wouldn’t wanna get in the way.

Oh, my parents have a, a townhouse, plenty of space. Two guest bedrooms, which we’re sharing one and Stephanie has the other. Right. So you can move in with Steph and Wendy come back with me. Oh, well, you’s know step way more than I do, so it actually makes more sense if you move with Steph and when mugs with me.

Or I could just fuck with stuff, Dude. Why are you making this so difficult? I’m just trying to do what’s best for Wendy. So am I guys. I appreciate the offer, but I’m just gonna go find my own. Nice going dummy. What did I do guys? I offered Wendy a perfectly good option. Oh really? Cuz I don’t think her idea of perfect is rooming with you.

Okay. Time out. As entertaining as this is, you’re gonna have to take it someplace else because I have work to do. So see ya.

I seriously get out of here. Go.

Don’t, no hard feelings. Never. You my best mate. Well, thank you. Thank you for under. Now you’re saying you’re a couple of months behind in your bills that they’re in, correct? Yeah. But to stop the bleeding, Sarah and I decided to move back in with Uncle Bick and Maggie. Temporarily. Not our first choice, obviously, but it’ll help.

All right. Well, how about this? I’ll lend you a couple of bucks until you find something. It’s a lovely offer, Jack, but no, I’ll figure it out. I always do.

What have I got to lose? Only everything that matters to me. Quinn, you already lost Sander. I’m talking about my father right now. My, my main focus is being the daughter that he deserves. You know, recovering from being slammed into by a motor vehicle, I’m doing much better. Thank you for asking. I’m glad you’re doing all right.

Any idea when they’re gonna let you outta here today? Jack has, uh, invited me to stay with him. He’s even getting me a job at the newspaper. . I’m nicely done. No, Stop. This is not a con. By some miracle, he’s given me a chance to do things right and there is no way I’m gonna muck it up. So whatever this scheme is that you are cooking up with ej, I’m out.

Well, you’re really turning me down.

I have root for you though. I hope you do it, Ava. I hope you make EJ pay

my password. Let’s see.

I was raw. Uh, a what? Johnny, You don’t belong behind a desk. You’re an artist.

You don’t, you don’t want me at Damara. Of course I do. I’d love nothing more than to have my son by my side. But you wouldn’t be happy here. You usually be out there creating, following your vision, bringing it, bringing it to life, like, I don’t know, Dad, the last vision I tried to bring to. It didn’t turn out so well.

You’re not gonna let a little thing like demonic possessions stop you from achieving your dreams, are you? If you can be the devil, you can beat anyone.

You’re right. Anyway, I’ve got a lot of work to do up, undo all the damage Gabby did as CEO is a lot bigger task than I imagine. Well, I’ll leave you to it then. Mm-hmm.

Hey, any luck? Nope. Security is so tight on my brother’s work Emails like trying to break into Fort Knox. How about you? My dad walked in on me. I went through his desk and does he know your Aja? Not a chance.

That’s correct. I want tied to security on all of the mirror’s, devices, desktops, laptops, phones, and as the head of it, I want you to personally oversee its upgrades. No, there is no active threat, but not everyone is happy about the recent change in leadership that you could never be too careful. Okay, thank you.

You okay? Sure. Yeah. Why wouldn’t I be, Gabby, you just signed your divorce papers. That had to be very difficult. Uh, Lee, what are you, what are you doing here? Isn’t this the first day? You being ej second in command, You know, that’s just temporary, right? Yeah. I love you and I, and I trust you. I know you’re looking out for me and that I’m biting time until I can get rid of EJ in all the other Demaris, and then I’ll just be you and me.

Shin Hernandez Enterprises.

Oh, he. Shim. I liked Mando. Oh, believe me. I know.

Well, Gwen, ready to blow this joint and head. Yeah, that sounds really nice. And Dad, yeah, thank you for giving me this chance and for still believing in me even after all the ways that I’ve disappointed you. It’s not gonna happen again. This time. It’s gonna be different. I’m going to be. And I’m gonna do everything that I can to make sure that you’re proud of me.

All of a sudden, Glen’s chips has a conscience. Now what? Where am I gonna find someone to help me? No, no, no. Phyllis, of course. I’m not trying to avoid you or your. You’ve been sending text messages as well. That’s strange. I I never got them, but I’m so glad you caught me because I do have some good news for him.

Yes. I, I’m finally getting out of your hair. I found a new place to live. Well, obviously I know I have to settle up. Remind me, uh, how much exactly do I own that much? And tell me, does the Salem in offer an installment plan? Cause I had a line on a job, but it fell through, so I just need a little bit of time.

Legal action, Darling. Phyllis, I’m sure it’s not gonna come to that. No, no, no. Don’t worry darling. I will find a way to come up with the money.

Problem solved.

You still haven’t told me why you came back here.

After what we just did. You’re still thinking about that . I mean, I’m curious. My sister texted me saying she was gonna stop by. Oh, she did? What’d she want? Well, um, she wanted to see if you would reconsider hiring her here at Damara and. But since you’re refusing, she was hoping I would hire her myself, but since you’re not CEO anymore, but if I was, I would hire her in a heartbeat.

And your sister’s a rockstar.

You’re not the first person today to remind me of her talents.

Maybe I do need to reconsider. Yeah. Maybe you should, unless you know you’re intimidated by powerful, strong women.

Okay. I just got a text from my mom. Is she okay? She’s fine. Thank God. She says she’s gonna check in again soon. And now that we know both of our moms are okay, we can head it back out to Seattle. Man, you’re pretty anxious to get back. Because you know, if we stay when you’ll choose me. Well, I mean, she definitely would choose me, but, uh, I’m actually just saving you the humiliation.

I don’t want let everyone to see my little brother crying. Okay.

You know, she’s into mma. No way. Mm-hmm. , dude, she can hack into anything. She’s a badass poker player and she likes mma. Mm-hmm. , she’s like the perfect woman. To Wendy picking the best Johnson, or, you know what I mean? You know what I mean? I do. And I will drink it there.

Who’s a Lee? Oh my God. Oh my God. He just offered me a position at Damara here in Salem. A good one. Congrats. Congrats. You, Uh, you got what you wanted, so I guess that means we won’t be working together anymore. Sure Will. If my brother and your dad got this Dr. Wolf guy to mess with Stephan’s head, I wanna know.

And my new job puts us one step closer to finding out the truth.

Stephan, I’m starting to worry about you. Everything okay? It is now. Just got divorced. It’s done. Yes, my widow and I just put pen to paper. Once the judge signs off, it’ll be official. I’m very happy for you, brother. It must be over the moon. Gabby Hernandez is out of your life forever.

Hope: I get that you’ve never stopped wanting your parents to get back together, but to go about it in this way, luring ridge off to aspen?

Steffy: My father went to aspen all on his own.

Hope: And when he got there, you and your mother took full advantage of that, didn’t you? You couldn’t let another golden opportunity pass you by just like old times.

Steffy: No, that is not true. My father already made the choice to be with my mother for the rest of his life, not brooke.

Hope: Ridge will always love my mother, steffy. Always. And I’m sorry if that’s an inconvenience for you and taylor, but it’s the truth.

Brooke: Ridge, it’s me again. I really need to talk to you. I still have so many questions. Just call me or text, please. I love you.

[ Door opens ]

Brooke: Ridge?

Liam: No, sorry.

Brooke: Ah. Hi, liam. I just keep thinking ridge is gonna walk through that door, tell me it was all a big mistake and that he’s not back with taylor.

Liam: It could still happen.

Brooke: Yeah, I suppose. Just the more time that goes by, I– I’m not gonna go there, I– I’m gonna stay positive.

[ Sighing ] Just going to hope that it’s not the end for ridge and me.

Deacon: Who the hell’s that guy think he is? He comes in here throwing his weight around. And he’s got his face on these dollar bills. I– I don’t even know why he gets his hair that way. It’s ridiculous. Arrogant son of a–

Sheila: Don’t let it get to you. Okay? He’s– he’s not worth it.

Deacon: That’s for damn sure. It’s just he– god, he gets under my skin. Just wanna–

[ Grunting ] You know, he thinks he’s so much better than me.

Sheila: But he’s not.

[ Deacon sighs ] Is he richer? Yes. Does he have an incredible amount of influence? Definitely. But is he better looking?

Deacon: Watch it.

Sheila: Did, uh, did i hear him right, though? Ridge left brooke?

[ Thud ]

Katie: Have you recovered yet?

Carter: From humiliating myself, you mean?

Katie: You didn’t humiliate yourself.

Carter: I announced to an entire office of colleagues that quinn left me. If that’s not the textbook definition of humiliation, then–

Katie: First of all, they’re not just your colleagues, they’re your friends and they hate that this happened to you. Second, it’s quinn’s loss, not yours. You have no reason to feel humiliated.

Carter: Yeah? But the lawyer in me still wants answers. Like, why did she walk away when things were so good? I thought about reaching out to justin, have him tap into his old ways, do some digging, but I don’t wanna take him off the straight and narrow, he’s, doing some great work here. So I made a phone call myself.

Katie: I really hope you didn’t call quinn. I mean, I’m sure you’ve been trying to get a hold of her, but I– I think you’re better off without her.

Carter: Is that why you kissed me?

Katie: As I recall, you kissed me back.

Carter: Yes, I’ve been calling quinn, but that’s not who I’m talking about.

[ Knocking ]

Shauna: Oh, am I interrupting?

Katie: You called shauna for answers?

Shauna: Hi, katie.

Katie: Hey.

Carter: I figured if quinn opened up to anyone, it would be her best friend.

Shauna: And let me start off by apologizing because you did not deserve to be treated that way, carter, and I am really, really sorry. Truly.

Deacon: I guess ridge did what ridge does best, which is shatter brooke’s heart. Again. Bill just couldn’t wait to come running down here to tell me all about it.

Sheila: Or he was just marking his territory. Claiming dibs.

Deacon: Arrogance and delusional.

Sheila: Yeah. Well, you know, he is dollar bill spencer.

Deacon: Oh, dollar bill spencer.

Sheila: One of the wealthiest, most powerful men alive for whom nothing is unattainable, including a newly divorced brooke logan.

Deacon: Well, she isn’t divorced yet. And even if she was, doesn’t mean she’s gonna go running back into his arms. I mean, don’t forget she was already married to that jerk once. Didn’t work out then. There’s no reason to believe it would work out now. Brooke deserves– she deserves somebody better.

Brooke: If I could justE. I mean, there’s gotta be some way we can work through this. There’s– there has to be.

Liam: Yeah. Yeah, there has to be. And we’re pulling for you.

Brooke: Oh, thank you. I mean, that really means a lot to have you and hope in my corner.

Liam: Well, yeah. Well, we’re your family. Where else would we be?

Brooke: Well, ridge is my family too, but if steffy and taylor have their way.

Steffy: I know what it’s like seeing your own mother in pain.

Hope: She’s devastated, steffy.

Steffy: I’m not saying she isn’T. But brooke watched my mother be heartbroken over and over again. The blatant plays for my father, a constant assault on my family. You wanna defend your mom? I get that. I get to defend my mom, too.

Hope: Except you’re not just defending your mother, steffy. You’re condoning the destruction of a marriage. And if taylor hadn’t come back–

Steffy: Oh, really? Okay. So are you saying this is my mom’s fault, that my father doesn’t know his own mind, his heart? Because I can tell you, hope, he does. His heart is fully with my mother.

Laundry truths: The bargain

jug.

[ Carter sighing ]

Carter: Okay. You saw me and quinn not that long ago. How did we seem? Did I miss something?

Shauna: Other than me feeling like a third wheel? No. You both seemed very much in love.

Carter: We were. That’s why I don’t understand. I mean, she made comments about not being able to give me what I wanted– marriage, a family. But I told her none of that matters to me.

Katie: Yeah, but is that really true?

Shauna: Quinn’s extremely good at reading people, what they say and don’t say. And if she really felt deep down you did want those things, then that was probably part of it. And she said the same thing to me.

Carter: She did? What else did she say?

Shauna: Uh, you know, it– it was very quick. Nothing really except she felt horrible for leaving you. But she just felt like it was the best thing for both of you. Although I think that there’s more to it.

Carter: So I’m not crazy.

Shauna: You’re definitely not crazy. I mean, what she did was shocking. Cutting out after such a loving, passionate relationship? But then again, I’ve known quinn for so many years and I am used to her erratic behavior. But you, you definitely deserved more from her.

Carter: Still don’t get it.

Shauna: Carter, if I were you, I wouldn’t spend too much time trying to figure it out. Quinn’s who she is. And as much as she loved you, when something’s over for her, it’s over. Whatever the reason.

Sheila: Yeah. Whatever will poor brooke logan do without a man for five minutes?

Deacon: Lay off brooke, will ya? All right? She just lost her marriage. It– show a little compassion.

Sheila: For someone who hates my guts?

Deacon: No. For someone who happens to be my daughter’s mother.

Sheila: Yeah. That’s all she’s ever gonna be. I hate to agree with bill spencer on this one, but whatever future you think you have with brooke, it isn’t happening.

Brooke: Oh gosh, I’m– I’m sorry. Really, I didn’t mean to dump all this on you.

Liam: No, you’re not. I’m here to listen. And to– grab this ’cause it’s beth’S.

[ Brooke chuckling ]

Brooke: I’m just grateful, really, to have a loving and caring family. So, thank you.

Liam: Yeah.

Brooke: You and hope are wonderful.

Liam: Well, I’m always gonna have your back, and hope, she’s hope. She defends the people that she loves. That’s what she does.

Hope: Ridge has always been torn between our mothers, steffy. But even you have to admit that my mom has made him happy.

Steffy: When she’s not making him miserable, which is most of the time. That’s what it comes down to. Brooke can only behave herself for so long. She doesn’t let the happiness last.

Hope: Do you really despise my mother that much?

Steffy: No. I actually feel bad for your mom. She’s still making these mistakes. The same mistakes we made in our 20s. She doesn’t learn from them. And my father’s finally starting to realize that.

Hope: Yeah, thanks to you. And thomas and taylor constantly hounding him about all of my mother’s shortcomings.

Steffy: We don’t have to point anything out for my father. He can make his own decisions. I understand this is really hard for you and your mother, but right now I’m not really focused on that. It’s not on my radar. I’m focused on my family, my mother, and the joy she’s feeling now that she’s back together with my father. A dental tool is round for a reason.

Katie: Shauna is right. You’ll probably never know the full reason quinn did what she did. And in which case you’re–

Carter: I’m spinning my wheels looking for answers.

Shauna: I know quinn loved you. She just sometimes freaks out and bolts. And I hate that it happened, especially to such a great guy like you. But you’re not gonna be single for very long. I know there is a lucky lady out there that is going to make you forget all about quinn. Trust me.

Deacon: So you don’t think brooke and i have a future, huh?

Sheila: Mm-mm. I don’t see it in the cards.

Deacon: Maybe you don’t want me to see it because you’re jealous.

[ Sheila laughing ] Of brooke? Are you serious?

Deacon: Sheila, I’m just saying. You know, in a head-to-head competition, brooke’s beautiful. You’re beautiful. Brooke’s got brains. You’ve got brains. Brooke’s got sex appeal. You know she has that– she has that one quality that you lack. Um, she’s never been charged with attempted murder. It’s kinda sexy.

Sheila: Are– are you saying that I don’t have sex appeal? Because that’s definitely not the message I’m receiving every time we wind up between the sheets together or on the sofa, do I need to go on? Because there is definitely heat right here between the two of us. A heat that I know that you have never experienced with another woman. Not even with… what’s her name?

Brooke: I honestly don’t know what I’ve done to deserve a daughter like hope. I mean, she’s always lifting me up and supporting me and being there for me. And– and defending me. And I just wish she didn’t have to do that. I mean, I– I just want my husband back.

Liam: Listen, you know, just as steffy and thomas will always defend taylor, hope will always defend you. And you know something else, no matter what happens here, whether ridge stays over there with taylor or gets his ass back to you–

Brooke: Well he has to come back to me. We’re married. We have a life together, a life that seemed so promising just a few days ago until he saw something in me that made him change. He thinks that I did something and I have no idea what it is. I mean, what could possibly get ridge to upend our lives like this?

Hope: I’m focused on my family, too. Like, finding out why my mother’s marriage fell apart practically overnight.

Steffy: You don’t have to look any further than brooke. She’s the reason my father left her and went back to my mom.

[ Hope laughing ]

Hope: That is not true. My mother and your father were happy. Sure, they had their issues but they were working through them. And for ridge to just wake up one day and decide that taylor is his future–

Steffy: No, no, no. My father has always loved my mother. If you believe that this is temporary, you’re kidding yourself. My parents are committed to each other. You should have seen them in aspen. It was so beautiful. The love between my parents. There was no foul play, no misunderstandings. It was just peace and love. The sooner you and brooke get this through your heads, the better for everyone.

Music (“I swear”) plays

[ Door closes ]

Carter: Do you think shauna picked up on something?

Katie: How you really feel about quinn?

Carter: No. How I really feel about someone else. Someone who’s been so understanding and… so generous with her support.

Deacon: What a buffoon. You know, if ridge actually does make it official and divorces brooke for taylor, she could do a hell of a lot better than that clown.

Sheila: Oh… oh, someone like you?

Deacon: Yeah, someone like me. Yeah.

[ Chuckling ] Look, at least I’m not a– a an arrogant narcissist like he is. You know, on my good days. Like, come on, this guy has got so many issues. Brooke should just avoid him like the plague.

Sheila: Let me guess, then, you would just be all too happy to save her from him.

Deacon: I don’t know about save, but she is my kid’s mother. I mean, they’re close. Look, if bill winds up hurting brooke, then he hurts hope and I’m not gonna let that happen.

Sheila: Look at you being all chivalrist. Well, you know what? I hate to burst your bubble, sir lancelot, but no amount of chivalry is going to win lady logan for you. No, she’s always gonna belong to ridge, whether he wants her or not.

[ Deacon sighing ]

Liam: When you and ridge were in aspen, what exactly did he say?

[ Brooke sighing ] I can’t make sense of it. He asked me to just, “say it.”

Liam: Say what?

Brooke: I don’t know. That’s what’s so frustrating. What is it? I– is it something that I did with bill? Something with deacon?

Liam: Well, the thing with my dad was so long ago now it’d be pretty weird if ridge was carrying that around, especially since, you know, he forgave you for it.

Brooke: I know. And he already forgave me for deacon too. So if it’s not those two, what is it?

Liam: Okay. Well, then– brooke, you have to talk to ridge again to find out. The stakes are too damn high.

Brooke: Oh gosh, I know, liam. You don’t have to tell me.

[ Sighing ] My marriage, my life, my happiness, the man that I love, it’s all on the line because of steffy and taylor. I am not gonna let them win. I am gonna get to the bottom of this and when I do, I am going to fix it and ridge will come back to me. We will be together again.

Hope: There’s something you need to accept, steffy. My mother will never give up on ridge. What they have together–

Steffy: Had together. Everything has changed. Hope, I know it seems like I’m gloating right now, but I’m really not. I’ll admit there was a time when I was worried about my father, losing him to brooke and the logans. It was a dark, dark time. But we’ve moved on. My parents have reunited. Our family is whole again, hope. And it’s truly a wonderful time for us. For my family, the forresters.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Adam: Hey, bud. I’m so sorry. I got caught up at work, and I lost track of time. How you doing?

Connor: I’m fine. Sally’s been here.

Adam: Thank you for, um, texting me. I appreciate it. I’ve, uh, got it from here.

Sally: Okay.

Adam: So, what have you been doing? You working on some homework?

Connor: No. I forgot my backpack in mom’s car.

Adam: Oh. Well, we can get that later.

Sally: I guess I should get going, but thank you for keeping me company, connor. I enjoyed hanging out with you.

Connor: Me too.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Adam: What are you drinking?

Connor: Hot chocolate.

Adam: Ah.

Billy: I am still in shock about nate they did. I can only imagine how you feel.

Lily: Yeah. I feel confused, you know? Betrayed. I think it’s gonna take me a while to wrap my head around the fact that my own cousin was willing to hand over our family business to another ceo.

Billy: You know, I would expect something like this from adam, but not a decent guy like nate.

Lily: Yeah. I wonder if I even really know him, which is crazy. I mean, we — we grew up together.

Billy: Lily, don’t second-guess yourself about this, okay? I mean, I’m not gonna try and understand what he was thinking throughout this whole process, but if this is truly between him and devon, it’s got nothing to do with you.

Lily: You know, what hurts the most is that [Scoffs] I really believed that our family wasn’t like the newmans. You know? Or the abbotts. I mean, no offense.

Billy: None taken.

Lily: [ Sighs ] But I guess we’re no better than anyone else, you know? Or maybe chancellor-winters just changed us for the worse.

Billy: I am so sorry. I really wish that I could solve all your problems for you. Of course, there is one thing i can do. I could stick around until the ipo goes through, if we still decide to go through with that.

Lily: No, no, no, no, no. It’s up in the air. Devon’s opposed to it. I don’t know how jill feels about it.

Billy: Well, I am worried about the public perception once everyone finds out that nate’s been fired and if I’m walking away. And I want to be here to support you.

Lily: Thank you. I appreciate that. But I will figure it out.

Billy: Of course you will. You always do. But it wouldn’t be just for you. I mean, it would be me supporting my mother, as well. She co-owns this company, and it’s in flux. So maybe it is best if I stick around, at least till everything sorts itself out.

Nate: All I wanted when i joined chancellor-winters was a chance to be an active contributor, with ideas that could be implemented, and given a chance to become a success. But you were never going to allow that. So there was only one way for me to prove myself and really have a hand in things. When the opportunity arose, I grabbed it.

Devon: Nate, you grabbed an opportunity to stab the people in the back that gave you the space to even dream on that level.

Nate: That’s because i realized there was no actual opportunities for me at chancellor-winters. And why is that? You don’t know how to manage people.

Devon: Well, that’s the thing about opinions — because i never had an issue with managing anybody before you. And my track record speaks for itself. I’ve actually achieved a lot of the success you say you want, and the difference is I’ve actually done it.

Nate: You know, I’d like to talk to some of your employees, see how they feel about your management style, because, if you ask me, I’d say you don’t know how to delegate. You refuse to trust anyone’s business sense unless it’s your own. And in your mind, no answer is right unless it’s coming from you.

Devon: I swear, I feel like you’re messing with me at this point — ’cause I know you’re not dumb. I know you understand how hierarchy works. A boss can take input from the people that work for them, they can listen to their ideas, but at the end of the day, they make the final decision and everybody has to be okay with it. And if they’re not, they can leave, like you did.

Nate: Hmm. Your ego is shining through and through.

Devon: How’s my ego shining? What happened to the nate that came begging for his job back, saying that he understood his role in the company and he knew what he did wrong and yadda, yadda, yadda. Where’s that guy at? Oh, I know what happened to him. He never existed in the first place because the only reason you came back was to get information so you can screw over your family.

Nate: This was always about business. It was never personal.

Devon: How do you figure it’s not personal, nate? How do you figure? Lily and don’t trust you anymore. So, that’s your family. Elena’s been staying in a hotel. I heard from memorial that she took time off to leave town. So, there’s your girl. That’s your family and your girl. It doesn’t get much more personal than that.

Nate: How would you know elena left town? What, are you victor newman now, hmm, hiring private investigators to stalk people? Now that I think about it, that sounds about right because you crave nothing more than control. Does amanda know you’re stalking your ex? Because I’m sure she wouldn’t like that.

Devon: Do you hear how you sound right now?

Nate: That’s not an answer.

Devon: It doesn’t deserve an answer. It’s as ridiculous as you are. You’re clearly mad at the world, nate, and it’s affecting every part of your life. You’ve alienated your family, you’re on the verge of losing your girlfriend, and it’s all because of decisions that you chose to make all by yourself, on your own. And yet you have the nerve to stand here in front of me and talk like you’re a victim.

[ Door closes ]

Sally: Hey.

Nick: Hey.

Sally: I was just going over the contracts for the licensing deal.

Nick: Cool. I’m not here to check up on you, just so you know.

Sally: I know. I didn’t think you were.

Nate: Unless there’s something I need to know about the contracts.

Sally: There’s not.

Nick: Alright. See ya.

Sally: Oh, wait. Actually, um, there is something, but it’s not about the deal. It’s about your daughter. Summer came by to see me earlier.

Nick: Yeah. I, uh — I saw her at society. She’s had a busy day.

Sally: I’m guessing we had similar conversations?

Nick: Probably.

Sally: According to her, you deserve better than me.

Nick: [ Sighs ] I’m sorry about that.

Sally: It’s understandable. And actually kind of sweet the way she’s so protective of you.

Nick: Eh, that’s not cool. She crossed the line.

Sally: Okay. But there was definitely part of me that was tempted to let her have it. But I took the high road, and I told her that we were just… friends.

Nick: Yup. That’s what I told her, too.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Lily: Look, I understand and I respect your reasons for wanting to stay on, but you have been wanting to leave chancellor-winters for a while, and I don’t want to hold you back from what’s coming next for you.

Billy: You’re not. But I am a little bit worried about the optics, what people are gonna think if I walk away in the middle of all this.

Lily: Look, it’s fine. We don’t have to make a formal announcement about it, you know? You can just step away and — and move on, you know? And in that way, there’s no public concern of the stability of the company.

Billy: I just hate the thought of leaving you to deal with this on your own.

Lily: Billy, this is what i want, okay? And I want this for you. You deserve to find your path the way that I found mine. Besides, you’re still coming home to me, right? You’re not leaving me.

Billy: No, I’m not, and coming home to you will be the best part of my day every day.

Lily: [ Chuckles ] At some point, though, we will have to let jill know that you’re stepping away eventually.

Billy: Yeah, I know. But it’s best not to do that today. I think we need to focus on putting this nate-fueled ipo fire out. I e-mailed my mom and told her what happened. I have a feeling she’s not gonna take the news very well.

Adam: I, uh, overheard you and sally talking when I came in, connor. Can I ask you why you told mom you saw me inside? I know she wouldn’t want you to be here alone if she knew nobody was waiting for you.

Connor: It wasn’t a big deal. I’m old enough to wait alone.

Adam: Yeah, I know you’re not a little kid anymore. But you know mom, too. She wouldn’t want you to be here by yourself, not because she doesn’t think you can handle it, but because moms are super protective like that. We just want to make sure that you’re safe. Both your mom and I — we love you more than anything in this world.

Connor: You’re wrong.

Adam: What do you mean?

Connor: Mom doesn’t love me as much as she used to. If she did, she wouldn’t be acting the way she is. I brought in ensure max protein

Adam: Why would you think mom loves you any less? How is she acting?

Connor: She always seems sad now. Or she’s trying to prove she’s not sad.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Hey, it has nothing to do with you.

Connor: It feels like it does. She feels far away. Why is it so hard for her to just love me?

Adam: Listen. I-I promise you that you are mom’s heart and soul. She’s just going through a rough time right now. And I know it can be hard to be on the other side of that. And I am so sorry that you are feeling what you’re feeling.

Connor: I don’t know how to make it better.

Adam: It’s not your job to do that.

Connor: This has to do with johnny, right? She’s been like this since she told him he’s my brother.

Adam: It’s — it’s a little complicated, and it’s probably gonna take some time for us to get used to the new family dynamic.

Connor: Mom wants us to be one big family, but we already are family. We don’t need johnny.

Adam: You’re right. We are a family, connor. And your mother knows that, too.

Connor: No, she doesn’T. Johnny has his own family. If she misses him so much, she never should have given him up in the first place.

Sally: One thing you should know — I saw adam, too, and he looked like he had had a long night with a bottle or two of champagne.

Nick: Yeah. I saw him on the rooftop this morning.

Sally: You went looking for him?

Nick: Yeah. I wasn’t looking for trouble. I just wanted to talk to him.

Sally: How did that go?

Nick: He was, uh, pissed off and hungover. But beneath the anger and all the drinking, obviously he’s in a lot of pain. He, uh, brought up the two of us spending time together. It’s taken a toll on him.

Sally: Yeah, I got that sense, too. I’m sorry about that, but it doesn’t change anything.

Nick: It’s clearly taking a toll on you, as well.

Nate: This isn’t about elena or me. This is about you and the way you need to keep everyone under your thumb.

Devon: Hmm.

Nate: The second you lose a little control, you get all anxious and aggressive. You think you have the right to drastically change everyone else’s life, but nobody could ever have a say in yours.

Devon: And who’s everyone, nate? ‘Cause the only person whose life I tried to change for the better was yours by bringing you into chancellor-winters.

Nate: After you took away my old life.

Devon: Okay.

Nate: Mm.

Devon: So we’re back to this?

Nate: Yeah.

Devon: You haven’t forgiven me for your hand.

Nate: That’s right. I probably never will forgive you for what happened to my hand. You can’t understand that because it didn’t happen to you.

Devon: Well, hey, you know what did happen to me? You had sex with my girlfriend.

Nate: And in return, you took away my career, my purpose, my passion, and my drive. You dragged me to a place of uncertainty and depression. Yet and still, I wanted to forgive you. I tried so hard to let go of all that pain and anger. And — and for a while, i thought it was working. I was with the woman I love.

Devon: [ Chuckles ]

Nate: And you built a life with amanda. I figured holding on to all that resentment wasn’t serving anyone.

Devon: Yeah, but you clearly didn’T. You just let it grow.

Nate: No. No. Actually, it came back because of you. Being offered a place at chancellor-winters reinvigorated my hope and solidified my resolve to finally forgive and move on. I wanted to give that coo job everything I had. I wanted to put all my lost passion into something new and exciting. But what did you do? Stopped me at every turn. Wouldn’t allow me to do my job. This isn’t just about me. There’s something deep going on inside you, maybe something you won’t let yourself admit or — or haven’t realized.

Devon: [ Scoffs ]

Billy: I am not looking forward to this.

Lily: No, it is not gonna be pleasant, but we’ll get through it.

Billy: Yes, we will.

Lily: Hi, jill.

Billy: Hey, mom.

Jill: Don’t you “hi, mom” me, billy. I am not in the mood for polite conversation. I want to know how in the hell you let this thing happen with nate right under your noses.

Lily: It was a very unfortunate turn of events and something I would have never suspected from nate.

Jill: You didn’t know how sneaky and conniving your cousin was?

Billy: Okay, that is below the belt.

Jill: You know, when I agreed to your idea of merging chancellor and hamilton-winters to create a family company, i never dreamed that your family would be the downfall of your legacy, lily.

Lily: Nate will not lead to my downfall or the company’S.

Jill: Oh, I hope you’re right. You know, your determination was part of the reason why I put you in charge. I have to admit that I’m kicking myself, too. I think I have pretty good instincts with people. But I never saw nate as a threat. Although I have an excuse. I did not work with the man in the office day in and day out. You two did. So, again, I will ask you. How in the hell did you let this happen? Vicks vapostick.

Billy: I can assure you that lily is not sleeping on the job in any way, shape, or form, if that’s what you’re implying. Yes, there has been some tension between devon and nate, but lily has done everything she can to keep the peace, both balancing this company and her family.

Jill: Well, whatever approach she’s been taking obviously hasn’t been working, has it?

Billy: Well, it’s like you said — you haven’t been around to witness any of it, right? So you’re gonna to trust our account of things.

Lily: Billy, I appreciate you coming to my defense, but I am the ceo of chancellor-winters, and there are no excuses.

Adam: Giving up johnny — it was — it was a hard decision for your mother to make. It was all about trying to do what’s best for him. And your mother — she wasn’t in a place where she could give him the kind of life that she wanted. So she stepped back and she let aunt victoria be the mother that johnny needed.

Connor: It doesn’t make sense. Either you love someone enough to take care of them or you don’T.

Adam: It’s just… it’s not always that simple, connor.

Connor: Why didn’t she just give me to aunt victoria, too?

Adam: [ Sighs ] Y-your mother, she worked really hard to provide for you in the right way. And unfortunately, she was not in the position to do that for johnny when he was born. And not to mention, I would never allow you to be raised by somebody else if I was in a position to take care of you.

Connor: So, it was because of you.

Adam: No. No. We both wanted to raise you. We were overjoyed when you came into our lives, connor, okay? I know this news is a big shock. There’s a lot of changing in the family history that’s hard to get your head around. I mean, I had the same kind of thing happen when I found out your grandpa was my father. So I know how jarring it can be. But the one thing that will never change is how much your mom and I love you, okay? I’m your father, and I’m always gonna be here for you. You can talk to me as often as you want, anytime. Okay? If there’s one thing that I’ve learned, it’s secrets can cause harm to people. And that’s why your mother decided to tell you and johnny — because she did not want this secret to harm you down the road. You understand?

Connor: Okay.

Sally: [ Sighs ] Maybe you’re right that this is taking a toll on me. But on top of adam’s latest stunt, in the aftermath, I ran into connor at the coffeehouse.

Nick: You mean connor and adam.

Sally: No. Connor was by himself. Chelsea and adam had a misunderstanding, sort of. So I just kept connor company until adam showed up.

Nick: There’s a lot going on with the family right now. It’s probably hard for him to process it all.

Sally: Yeah, but adam being late definitely didn’t help. Connor deserves two loving, stable parents, and I can’t help but feel partially responsible if adam is falling short in some way.

Nick: You know, I love my nephew. He is a great kid, and I’m sorry he’s going through that. But, sally, you are not responsible for adam’s behavior, alright? Whether he’s a good dad or not is completely up to him.

Sally: But he doesn’t live in a vacuum. On some level, I do feel like i am partially to blame, and i know that connor thinks so, too.

Nick: Why would you say that?

Sally: Because he told me.

Devon: I’ll tell you what I’m not gonna do, and that’s stand here and let you make this about me — ’cause from day one, you have never been able to admit the fact or accept the fact that you’re a novice at chancellor-winters and you don’t have any experience.

Nate: Don’t act like I was a nepotism hire, not when I had other executive job offers.

Devon: From who? Don’t walk away from me. Who? Who are you talking about? Ashland locke? You think the guy that was using you to help scam people into believing he had cancer was excited about hiring you because of, what, your impressive résumé?

Nate: Wow. You want to take the gloves off? Let’s take the gloves off.

Devon: Sure.

Nate: Would you even be ceo if you hadn’t inherited a billion dollars to launch a company? Talk about starting on the mountaintop.

Devon: And do you know how many companies I worked for before I got that inheritance? I didn’t think you did. I had a track record back then. You don’t have one now. And you know something? That’s on me for handing you a coo job with that being the case. That’s my one mistake.

Nate: Your one mistake? Sure. Keep telling yourself that.

Devon: You know what? You’re right. Two mistakes. My second one was assuming that you were gonna approach a high-level job like this with some humility and maybe some intelligence even.

Nate: What did you want me to do? Call you sir, huh?

Devon: Come on.

Nate: Bow down to you like you were royalty?

Devon: Nate —

Nate: Would that have shown appropriate deference?

Devon: Don’t be dumb, man. Don’t be dumb. You know damn well the only thing I ever wanted from you was to respect my final word. And you couldn’t do that. You were too arrogant to see you weren’t qualified or to realize that when you make a big career change — I don’t know — maybe you got to take a step back for a second and learn the ropes. Wait for your time.

Nate: The time was never gonna come.

Devon: You made sure of that, didn’t you? You thought you knew what was best and you were the only person to lead the company in the right direction. So, what did you do? You set out to essentially destroy the family legacy that we’ve been building to leave behind. That’s what you did. And honestly, I don’t know how you brought yourself to do it. And you know what hurts more than anything, nate? This company is what I built with neil, okay? It’s what he and I shared together before he left this planet. And you want to talk about what I took from you? That’s what you tried to take from me. Did you know if you turn to cold with tide 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.

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Louisiana families are really getting good

Nate: None of this would have gone so far if you would have just been open to hearing my ideas, if you would have just loosened up your grip on the reins.

Devon: Nate, if I would have loosened up my grip on the reins, you would have run the business that neil and I built into the ground.

Nate: It’s not yours and neil’s business anymore. It’s yours and jill’S. And lily is jill’s ceo.

Devon: Oh, so you do understand hierarchy. I thought you might. And let me break this down for you so you understand it, okay? Half the company is called winters, as in neil winters. So a part of it is always gonna be his. And I had the privilege of learning from him firsthand. I got to see his example, and he set a standard of professionalism that you would never understand. And we had a partnership that someone like you can never even aspire to have.

Nate: Wow. So, is that what this is all about? That nobody can ever live up to neil? You can’t get past your partnership you had with your father.

Jill: Nate showed his hand when he got upset on the call with you. But we just assumed that it was a personal dispute between him and devon and that it wouldn’t bleed over into business.

Jill: Except it did.

Billy: Yeah, we know that now.

Lily: Yes, and he apologized, and we gave him another chance because his apology seemed sincere.

Jill: Because he’s family.

Lily: I guess so. And that’s my mistake, and i take full responsibility for it. But let me just say this. The ipo hasn’t happened, right? And nate has been fired. So the risk of him selling shares to whoever he was colluding with is done. They’ll no longer be able to have majority share of the company. So no permanent damage has been done…yet.

Sally: Connor brought up how much adam used to smile when we were together. And when I first showed up at crimson lights, he thought maybe I was there to pick him up, adam and I had reunited, and he was just hoping that it might get his dad smiling again.

Nick: Sorry. Uh, kids tend to make sense of things the only way they know how, and it’s not always accurate. You know, a lot’s happened since you and adam got together, and then you broke up. With the family and the business, it’s not necessarily about you.

Sally: Yeah, I’m — I’m sure you’re right. But I just have to assume that adam getting drunk last night was because I rejected him. But I just — I can’t — I just can’t ignore the impact that I’ve had on him and, as a result, connor.

Nick: Sally, I — I really think you’re taking this logic too far. Adam’s a grown man.

Sally: I’m aware. And I know that he’s not my responsibility. But I just really hate to watch him suffer, especially when my life and my career is going so well.

Connor: Mom is different now. She’d probably be happier if she had kept johnny.

Adam: Mnh, no, that is not true, connor.

Connor: It’s like I’m not enough anymore. If she can’t have johnny around, she doesn’t want anybody.

Adam: Connor, that is not true.

Chelsea: Hey, guys. I realized you were gonna need this, or else you can’t do your homework. Maybe that’s what you were hoping for, huh? Um…connor, why don’t you, uh, go pick out a pastry so I can talk to your dad for a minute?

Adam: It’s okay. How much did you overhear?

Chelsea: Uh, just that my son doesn’t think he’s good enough for me [Sighs] Which I will fix. I — I’m — I’m gonna fix that. I’m gonna make this right.

Adam: I don’t think that’s gonna be as easy as it sounds.

Chelsea: I know you’re furious and that you probably blame me.

Adam: Look, blame is not going to help anybody right now, but connor is upset. He’s trying to process things a kid his age doesn’t know how to make sense of. So I think we need to bring in a professional to help our family deal with this information about johnny.

Chelsea: I know what that person’s gonna say — that i messed everything up and it’s all my fault.

Adam: I don’t think that that is going to happen. A good therapist wouldn’t talk that way. But we need an outside opinion for connor.

Chelsea: Okay. You’re right.

Adam: Mm-hmm.

Chelsea: You’re right. I just — I feel ashamed. I had the best of intentions, and I failed miserably.

Adam: No, this isn’t about failure. In fact, finding a way to move on from this is the opposite of that.

Chelsea: Well, I’ll do whatever I have to do for connor’s sake. But in the meantime, I was hoping you could help me with something.

Jill: I appreciate your focus and your willingness to take responsibility for what happened and your problem-solving attitude that you’re adopting.

[ Cellphone pings ]

Billy: It’s victoria.

Lily: Do you have to leave?

Billy: [ Sighs ] We had plans to spend some time together with the kids at the park. I can tell her I’m busy if you think that’s the best thing to do.

Jill: Oh, no, no, no. We can handle it from here. You go hug my grandchildren for me.

Lily: Yeah. Go.

Billy: I’ll catch up with you as soon as I’m done, okay?

Jill: So, lily, you said there had been no damage yet, and that implies that there still could be some. What else are you concerned about?

Sally: [ Sighs ]

Nick: It’s obvious, sally, you have some unresolved emotions that you need to work through.

Sally: I’m not gonna argue that point. I thought I was in a better place and that I was fully ready to move on from adam. Look, I love spending time with you, nick, but —

Nick: Hey. You don’t have to finish that. The last thing I ever wanted was to make things more difficult or complicated for you. Whatever is happening here with us, it needs to happen at a pace you’re completely comfortable with. If at all. I just don’t want to make anything harder for you or — or adam…or me. For what it’s worth, um, when i talked to adam this morning, it seems like he’s really heartbroken. I know his feelings for you are genuine. I also know he really, really regrets pushing the woman that he loves out of his life.

Adam: Whatever you need, I’m here. So, what can I do to help?

Chelsea: You can give me your support, not your judgment.

Adam: At what point in any of this have I judged you?

Chelsea: You don’t have to say it, adam. It’s written all over your face.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Chelsea, I really hope you can find a way to stop looking at me as the enemy. We’re on the same team.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Connor: Can you take me home now, dad? You said I could go riding later at the ranch.

Adam: Sure. Yeah. Let’s go.

Chelsea: Did you find anything you want to eat? I can get you something for the car ride home.

Connor: No, thank you.

Chelsea: Okay. Connor? I love you.

Connor: Love you. Suffering from sinus congestion, especially at night?

Connor: 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.

Billy: Hey there. You’ve been on my mind. How you doing?

Chelsea: Um, I’m sick of feeling sorry for myself. I’ve decided I’m not gonna let a string of bad luck grind me into the ground anymore.

Billy: Well, that’s good. I’m glad to hear that. I hope you can stay strong.

Chelsea: I am. Thanks.

Billy: Listen, chels, um, I’m pulling for you. But right now, victoria and johnny and katie are on the way to the park, and, uh, it’s probably best that you’re not around.

Chelsea: Right. Right. Okay. Thanks for the heads-up.

Nick: I realize adam has lost a lot. Most of that’s his fault. But, sally, if you are conflicted, then I got to step away. It’s not doing anyone any good for me to be in the middle of this. I mean, even when we try to be levelheaded, like last night at the coffeehouse, it just gives away to…the attraction.

Sally: Yeah, I guess we’re better at managing business than our emotions.

Nick: Yeah. It’s clear we have chemistry. A lot of it.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: But that’s not enough.

Sally: Yeah. It doesn’t change the fact that I need to figure out what i want.

Lily: My other major concern is tucker. Devon and I have suspicions as to why he’s really back in genoa city. He says that it’s to reconnect with devon or meet dominic and maybe make amends with ashley, but we’re not really buying it.

Jill: Mm. Good call. There’s always something else brewing when it comes to that man.

Lily: Exactly. So, you know, even if he’s not the ceo that nate has been conspiring with, that means that there’s still someone else out there looking for another way in. So, there are sharks in the water. And whether that’s tucker alone, tucker with other people, or someone else entirely, I want to make sure that we’re not caught with our eyes closed again.

Jill: My priorities haven’t changed. You were correct when you said that with nate out, there is no one on the team who would sell their shares, giving an outsider a majority control. So I have every intention of moving forward with the ipo, and I certainly hope that you and devon are on board. And now that we know that there’s a business predator out there, we just have to figure out who that is.

Nate: Do you think that by allowing someone else in, letting them grow and shine, that you’re somehow betraying your father?

Devon: I think you’re looking for something that isn’t there. That’s what I think.

Nate: Maybe. But if it does ring true in any way, I can understand. I know how hard it is to let go.

Devon: Okay, we’re done, nate.

Nate: No, devon, hold on. Neil wouldn’t want you holding on to his ghost. He’d want you to move forward and allow yourself and the company to be the best version–

Devon: I don’t need to hear what you think my dad would want ’cause you don’t have any idea what he would want. You don’t know what mattered to him. You don’t know what was important to him. I do. And what he cared about more than anything in the world was his family, and that’s the thing that you betrayed. He would never forgive you if he were alive.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

ava, I’m so sorry. Now’s not a good — you have a lot to answer for, husband. I would love to talk. How about later at the pc grill? Mm. How about now? No, now doesn’t work for me because you can’t be here.

[ Door rattling ]

[ Sighs ] I don’t know how big your brain is yet, but…I’m gonna need all the help I can get. How are we going to get out of here? Cyrus: Tear-aways. Hello, nephew. Tear-aways? Men tear pictures of women out of the men’s lifestyle magazines.

[ Scoffs ] That’s pathetic. Prison’s a lonely place. The magazines are full of holes. Just like your redemption story. Sorry. Hey. I had to train the manager who’s going to sub for me. Hey. Are you looking forward to your trip? It’s not a trip, dad. It’s a management intensive. Ah. Well [Sighs] I’m dying to hear all about it, but bear in mind, I’m starving, so I don’t want you hogging all the crostini. There’s going to be plenty of food. We are overdue for a — a family meal. Yes. Which guard have you got today, dad? Frank? Or is dex finally back? You scared me. You don’t scare easily. I’m always scared.

[ Chuckles ] I just manifest it as righteous indignation.

[ Monitor beeping ] So was it your fear that made you goad my attacker in your paper?

[ Cellphone rings ] Hi, robert. Did you find lucy?

No. And I don’t like it. Her assistant said that the event on her calendar was a direct reminder from victor about a sunset cruise leaving from pier 47. But, um… there’s no sign of her. No sign of a boat either. W-what are you doing here?

[ Gunshots firing ]


Dex is back. Matter of fact,he’s in the alcove. I’m glad you finally backed off thinking dex was a person of interest. That made no sense whatsoever. It kind of did, actually, kristina. It was preliminary stages of the investigation. We’ve since found evidence that points us in a different direction. I told you.

[ Scoffs lightly ]

Both of you. For a minute there, I thought you lost confidence in dex, too. That’s because for a minute there I did. So you know about the open letter? Well, as you might imagine, I’ve been very busy the last few days, but I have managed to find time to read a few things. And my reading material of choice is the invader. Oh. Well, thank you for your readership.

[ Chuckles ] When I saw you on that garage floor, I just wanted to do something. I wanted to get the maniac. I wanted to smoke him out, to goad him into slipping. Mnh-mnh. Her. Definitely a woman. Either way, good job on keeping your presence of mind to make that partial I.D.

[ Beeping continues ] I just thought the open letter was — was a — it was a good idea at the time. And now there’s another attack, so I hope I didn’t provoke her. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Objection, counselor. Speculation. You and I both know a serial killer doesn’t need an excuse to kill. I wasn’t the first victim. I’m certainly not going to be the last. I mean, it stands to reason. You made a valiant effort, and I so appreciate it. Still, I would hate it if I were responsible for anyone else having to go through what you have gone through. Hey, I’m still standing. Well, or, you know, lying. Sitting. Anyway, listen. And aside from…reading your provocative journalism, this has given me a chance to put a few things in perspective. Like what? Like… am I living my life to its fullest, hmm? Maybe there’s something else out there that I have been missing. “K-nock, k-nock.” There’s a sight for sore eyes. So was uncle victor telling the truth? Truth about what? He said that you decided to divorce me. Were you planning to tell me that our marriage is over, or was I just going to answer the door one day at nina’s and be served with papers? It’s not what you think. I… I don’t know to think. My head is spinnin’. Last I checked, you wanted this to work. I do. More than anything. Why does victor think otherwise? Look, I’d really rather not waste my time and resources bringing you back into line, but I will if I have to. I won’t be intimidated into giving up my wife. Well, I can’t say I blame you. Ava is a spectacular woman. Beautiful. Ruthless. Oh, and that wicked sense of humor. But, sadly, she’s also far too much for you to handle. He probably got the wrong idea because I’ve been so cynical about our chances. I mean, it’s not exactly like you’ve been giving me hope. Do you think you deserve it? Probably not. But I will spend the rest of my life trying to win you back. And I won’t let anyone stand in our way. I know I’m asking a lot of you. You’re the only reason nikolas hasn’t wrung my neck. Mnh! Ugh! Let’s try this again now, shall we? You’re my ace in the hole, kid. Your daddy knows it. That’s why he’s trapped us in here. I really know how to pick ’em.

[ Chuckles ] Just wait until you meet your brother spencer. You are right to be skeptical. In my previous life, I was a scoundrel by every definition. But I’m no longer that man. Now you’re reformed.

[ Chuckles ] Yeah. I was faithless once, too. Oh, I have faith. Just not in men who say one thing and then do another. Oh, like your father. Or like yourself. You don’t know me. We’re family. No. No. I’m a cassadine. And family is simply a means to an end for us.

[ Sighs ] Now, that saddens me because I value family greatly. Martin and laura — do not say my grandmother’s name. I only meant to convey how much I regret pushing away the two people I wish to be closest to. In you, I see an opportunity to make amends. I’m sorry, but the adopt-an-inmate program has been discontinued.

[ Laughs ] That’s funny. This, uh, this uniform isn’t really your size, is it? And I — I heard that your bedding went missing again. Now, you could continue to endure this hazing, or you could let me look out for you.

[ Door opens ] Book: Careful. You rely on this old man, you won’t last another 10 minutes in this place.

[ Hushed ] I repeat, shots fired, pier 55.

[ Breathing heavily ]

[ Water lapping ] Victor: Lucy? Lucy? What…? What’s that? Is that lucy’s shoe?


You work for sonny, don’t you? I’m working right now. Mr. Corinthos is having dinner with your daughter. Kristina’s here?

[ Sighs ] Oh, well, it’s a good thing we didn’t order anything yet. No! Yeah. I’m sorry. Duty calls, but raincheck on the family dinner? Yeah? Fine. Okay. I’ll see you. Thanks for nothing.

[ Chuckles ] Love you guys. Love you. What are you doing here? Well, I might ask you the same thing. I heard shots. As did I. I was on my way to meet lucy at pier 47 when I heard the shots. I told my driver to pull over in case someone needed assistance, but I don’t see anyone here. Aside from you, that is. I was at pier 47. Lucy’s not there. Well, then where could she be? She’s not answering my calls. Oh, I hope nothing’s happened to her. Oh, if it has, I’ll feel so responsible. I’ll never forgive myself.

Are you responsible? Well, it’s my fault if she was out here alone. I — I was running late, you see. And, well, if that shoe’s any indication, she was waiting at the wrong docks. Ah. It’s still voicemail. So you arrived just now with your driver? I’m going to call pcpd. I already did. I just want to make sure they’re en route. I’ll call the harbormaster. Prison is all about partnerships, cassadine. I’m just trying to keep my head down, so… well, you can go that route, but the attention you’re getting won’t, uh, stop at your fluff-and-folds. Take your hands off him. It’s all about who you know. Ain’t that right, old man? Now, you might think you have it made, but those corinthos guys? They can’t be everywhere all the time. And the best you’ll get by aligning yourself with this prehistoric pusher is an extra helping at meal time. So, you’re suggesting my nephew throw in with your lot, book? Like I said… no one can watch after you 24/7 in a place like this. It’s dangerous… and random. What do you want? I want my work assignment back. Mm-hmm. Where are you now? Laundry. Mystery solved. So, what do you say? Real protection for my old gig back. Ava: You’d fight for us? You want me that much? Clearly… you want me, too. How arrogantly presumptuous. Admit it. Ava, you still love me and you don’t want to give up on us any more than I do. I admit nothing. Then why are you here? Ava, the minute you think that I’m going to throw in the towel, and you show up? Don’t flatter yourself. Do you have another reason for being here? Yeah. Yeah, as a matter of fact, I do. I — I have to take inventory before I close the gallery, and I left some files in the tower. So I’ll go get them, and — and we can continue this conversation when it’s more convenient for you. Whoa, whoa. Wait, wait. You can’t go up there.

[ Chuckles ] Why not? What is really going on here?


I am very proud… of all my children. Even michael? I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to chase alexis off. Oh, you didn’T. We had a long and lovely visit. So what can I do for you? Have you apprehended my assailant? Not as yet. But I thought I’d drop in and see how you were doing. Went into the icu, they said you’d been upgraded, which, of course, I expected, you being a tough cookie and all.

[ Chuckles ] Well, I try.

[ Monitor beeping ] I guess this is the universe’s way, though, of telling me I should slow down. Too bad the universe can’t give us these messages in a less painful format. Indeed. So what can I do for you? I’m assuming, since there’s no update, you have some more questions for me? Yeah. I was wondering if, you know, some other little details may have crossed your mind. It — it can be totally insignificant. I’m sorry, robert. I’ve tried. Uh, I… aside from the fact that it was a woman with her jangly bracelets, the only thing I can remember is my life flashing before my eyes. That’s a thing, you know. They say that happens. Well, it’s true. Yeah. I’ve been there before… once or twice. Why exactly were you meeting lucy here? We were taking a sunset cruise. Really? I don’t see a boat. Hmm? Oh, yes, I — I know. Why do you suppose her shoe’s here?

[ Exhales sharply ] I haven’t a clue. What brought you to the docks, anna? I told you. Anna. I’ve got a call about a missing or abducted person. You know anything about that? Okay, so I believe that the shoe belongs to lucy coe. We found it down here. Well, actually, to be accurate, ms. Devane found the shoe. I arrived shortly after the gunshots. Two gunshots, quick succession. Small caliber weapon. I can’t be certain that this is the precise origin, but if lucy’s missing… is lucy missing? W-well, it — it seems so. We were supposed to meet here, and lucy’s nowhere on the docks, and my — my calls go to voicemail. Okay. Cordon off the area. Get csi down here, forensics. We need an underwater dive team with sonar equipment, okay? I’ll call the commissioner. So, detective, what do you think happened here tonight? I don’t know, victor… but I’m gonna find out. And I’m gonna start with you.

[ Esme growls ] Aah! Aah!

[ Screams ]

[ Screaming ] Nikolas: A pipe burst in the north tower. It’s unsafe to go up there, ava, and it’s a mess. Well, my files will be ruined. No, no. Don’t worry. Everything was boxed up. It was moved to a different area. There was no damage. Okay, well, thank you. Yeah. When the tower is structurally sound, I will grab your files and I will get them to you. Okay? Are you trying to get rid of me? No, it’s just the opposite, ava. It’s just you reminded me I have to get back to checking how the work is coming. It’s night. I know. But I have to meet the foreman tomorrow morning. I like to be hands-on. Can I walk you out? Yeah. Okay. I said that I would meet nina for dinner, anyway. Uh… so… about what uncle victor said… nothing could be further from the truth. I am telling you myself, there is no third-party intervention needed. I want you, ava. Ball’s in your court. Goodnight, then. Well, albeit a tempting offer… I think I’ll watch my own back. You heard my nephew. Mm-hmm.

[ Grunting ] Oh!

[ Gasps ] What was that? Feels like butterflies. Are you moving around or just giving me indigestion? Either way, I suppose you’re right.

[ Sighs ] Can’T… fall apart now and start feeling sorry for myself. I won’t give up.

We won’t give up.

[ Sighs ]

[ Sniffles ]

[ Lock disengages ] We did it, ace.


It’s all fabulous, it’s all glad. Let’s go see your grandfather. Esme. Going somewhere? Like I said, you know, um… I’m proud of all my — my kids, michael included. Even though we’re not blood related, he’s the one that’s most like me. I never thought he — he would be. He’s the first child that I raised. You think you know how it feels to be a parent until you become one. But aren’t things still tense between you and michael? “Tense” is an understatement. I… um…it’s over. I think it’s done. I don’t believe that. Michael is hurt and angry, but I know underneath all of that… he loves you, and he always will. Like you and alexis? Hi. Hi, mom. Um, have you heard anything from diane? Yeah, I just came from the hospital. She’s out of the icu, and she’s recovering by leaps and bounds. Well, that’s good to hear. Listen, have a seat. You can join us. I got to take care of something. Oh. Okay. I-I’ll just sit for a bit, ’cause I-I don’t want to take away time from your dinner with your dad. Either way. Diane said that you called. That was very thoughtful. She’s your best friend. Almost an aunt. True. I also saw the flowers that you sent to brando’s memorial. I’m sorry I had to miss it, but I’m getting ready to go out of town, and I can’t take off work right before I leave. But I’m sure you think me slinging drinks and wings is not as important as missing my cousin’s funeral. You know, the bible says if someone smite thee on thy cheek, turn to him also the other. Glad god approves.

[ Grunts ] Aah! Ah! It also tells us to put on the full armor of god that ye can stand against the wiles of satan.

[ Grunts ]

[ Exhales sharply ] Move…on. And if I don’t? You gonna drop the spiritual act and do what? Only god can judge you!

[ Door opens ] Problem here? No. He’s got a shiv. What? That so, book? No, I don’T. Well, looks like you’ve earned yourself solitary confinement. That’s not mine! This is bs! Aah! Now, what were we discussing before we were so rudely interrupted? You ha ve calls and texts you canback of your statement with? Yes. Yes, of course, detective. Valentin, when you get this, you want to call me immediately. It’s about lucy. Okay? Calling my son? None of your business. Well, I am right here, anna, and I do have ears. Well, he’s unreachable, isn’t he, as well you know. I-it’s such a coincidence, isn’t it, that he’s on his way to switzerland when all of this is happening. Wait, are you accusing my son of something? Charlotte has an equestrian event. She’d like her father there. That’s the only reason he’s there instead of here. That’s understandable, isn’t it, given how long it is since he’s seen her. Well, it’s quite natural for a father to want to support his daughter. What is a little less understandable is why you should feel the need to loop valentin into lucy’s situation. Because valentin is a major shareholder in lucy’s company, isn’t he? Oh, yes, of course. That’s right. I — I underestimated how heavily invested valentin is in deception. Officers are headed to lucy’s home and office. Your driver corroborated your statement, mr. Cassadine. Ah, good. So I’m free to go? Yeah. You can leave the pier. I mean, I don’t think it’ll do you any favors if you actually leave town. Oh, no, of course not. I’m not going anywhere. Please let me know if you find out anything. Oh, it’s all so troubling. I do hope lucy didn’t meet with foul play. I should have known how enterprising you can be after you stalked ava, framed trina, and you seduced me. Oh, it didn’t take much seducing. And I may be enterprising, but you aren’t remotely equipped for this. Do you really think you can just shove me in a room for six months without any preparation or planning? What is this? Amateur hour? How was I ever snowed by you? Oh, like father, like son. Shut up! You have taken everything from me. You blew up my marriage. My son is in pentonville. All because you came into our lives. I am so sick of you! What are you going to do to me? I’ll scream. Go ahead. Nobody’s coming for you.


How you holding up? Oh, good, boss. Yeah, you can go. You want to take off for a couple hours? ‘Cause dante left, and i just ordered with kristina. No, I can stay. Listen, I-I want to — I want to thank you for not holding what happened to you against me. Mistakes were made. You were treated unfairly. But one thing I just want to sayis the good thing that came out of this is now I know how strong you are, and most importantly, how discreet you are. That’s very, very important in this business. I just hope I’ve proved my loyalty. Loyalty is very important… it’s very rare, and I don’t take that for granted. Ava, twice in one day. What a delight. For you it is. I’m sorry. Have I offended you in some way? Have you forgotten the glad tidings you brought me earlier… ah. …About my husband’s plans to divorce me? No, but I have to say I’m a little surprised at your reaction. I mean, considering how my nephew betrayed you, I’d have thought you’d want to be well rid of him. We’ve been over this several times, uncle victor. Let me try it again. My marriage is none of your concern. Of course. Nevertheless, allow me to be candid for a moment. Much as I care about nikolas…

[ Sighs ] …He’s hardly your equal. Spencer: You set book up? Well, that’s one way of looking at it, yeah. Did you know that the guard was going to come back, or was that just luck? I believe in blessings, not luck. But I can tell you I’ve got connections book knows nothing about. People often mistake bluster for power, but real power is much quieter. Doesn’t the bible also say something about bearing false witness?

[ Laughs ] Ah, apparently god’s not through with me yet. Evidently not.

[ Sighs ] It’s hard to reconcile sometimes, but there’s a spiritual world and there’s a real world. It’s — it’s not my job to take book off this planet, but i can remove him from your sphere, at least temporarily. And who knows? Maybe he’ll think twice approaching you the next time. Well, I guess I should thank you. I’ll settle for the benefit of the doubt. So tell me, are all of your injuries work related? Thank you. You don’t have a scar or a broken bone from something a little more pedestrian? Well, um, there was a scar from my cancer surgery.

[ Chuckles ] I’m not letting you see that until you buy me dinner. Or — or — well, maybe vice versa. Oh?

[ Chuckles softly ] Oh, don’t make me laugh. Ooh.

[ Monitor beeping ] Point taken.

[ Clears throat ] And point made. You are no stranger to brushes with death. For me, until this scar, which is very pretty, the closest I ever came was a broken pinkie toe from sliding into third in elementary school. You’re a tomboy? Shh. Not so loud. Everyone thinks I’m real classy.

[ Chuckles ] Ah, that tracks actually. But you get extra brownie points because of the fact somebody came after you with a hook. That never happened to me. It’s not a thrill I recommend.

[ Clicks tongue ] I can recall the times when i thought I was going to cark it. I felt… very uncomfortable at that… vulnerability. Maybe that’s why you and i have such empowering jobs. Or perhaps we’re just as tough as old boot leather.

[ Laughs ] Well, in any case… coming face-to-face with my mortality has been sobering. “We are not now that strength…” “…which in old days moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are, one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate… but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.” Well, I-I was looking for lucy on pier 47, and I heard two shots, and they seem to come from this direction. So I arrived on the scene probably three, four minutes later. No one was here. Something caught my eye. It was the shoe. I — look, I-I can’t swear that that’s lucy’s shoe, but it’s definitely her style. Okay. Uh, back up. Why were you looking for lucy in the first place? I was worried for her safety. I thought maybe she was in jeopardy. Why would you be worried for her safety?

[ Camera shutter clicks in distance ] Anna, it can’t be a coincidence that you and victor were on the same dock. It’s not. I believe that he knew lucy was going to be here on pier 55, not 47, which is where I was informed she would be. Informed by who? Anna, do you think that victor had something to do with lucy’s disappearance? Yeah, I do. I can’t prove it, but yes. Okay. Well, I trust your gut. So, assuming that lucy is missing, why would victor target her? She was working for me… to get information out of victor so I could bring him down. I know, I know. She’s a civilian. I know. I was trying to get her to stop, but she refused. So I called her office to find out where she was, and they said that she was going on some sunset cruise with victor leaving from pier 47. I got down here. I came to try to extract her from the situation, but then I heard the shots. I came here. I found the shoe. So you think victor’s on to her? Yeah. I mean, an hour ago, I had no reason to think so. But now… I believe that he’s found out somehow… and he’s done something about it.


I’m sure you think I’m crazy to be taking off for this intensive. I mean, why go to the trouble to become a better manager when all I manage is a pub? Your job is important to you. And what’s important to you… matters to me. But…it’s just a job and not a career. I admit, sometimes I question the way you go about thiS. I’m not even going to pretend not to know why. But I see you being responsible, being enthusiastic, being recognized for doing a good job. And you seem happy. I am happy. That’s what’s most important. And what else is important is that I never want you to think that I’m not proud of you, honey. I am so proud of you. I had the best working for me — dedicated, steadfast. But he’s gone now. I know I can’t fill his shoes, but… I’d like to try. You kept your head. You came through for me. I need a lieutenant that I can trust. I’m your guy. In fact, I think I’m ready for a new challenge. Can you think of anything more important than protecting my family? No, sir. I’d like to get to know you better, spencer, but…perhaps I’m asking too much. So… cyrus, wait. This just arrived this morning. This is william tyndale’s 1534 translation of the new testament. That’s a seminal version. It contains his — his prefaces and his notes, and… well, I haven’t logged it into the system yet, so it’s yours if you’d like it. Bless you. Well, it seems only fair — a book for a book. And now I don’t owe you anything. Eh, you never did.

[ Pounding on door ] Esme: Nikolas!

[ Pounding on door ] Nikolas! Help!

[ Pounding on door ]

[ Esme screaming ] Let me out! You can’t leave me in a locked bathroom! Who is going to stop me? Nikolas, please. You’ve made your point. I shouldn’t have tried to leave when you were just trying to help me. I’m clearing this room, esme. You’ve lost your privilege of luxury. For the sake of the baby, I’m not going to make you sleep on the floor, but you’ll have little else. Nikolas, I am a mother of your child, not some prisoner! Do this and you’ll be sorry! I’m already sorry.

[ Pounding on door ] Let me out! Robert, I did not peg you for a lover of poetry. Nice to know I’ve got some surprises left. We ll, it will be no surprisewhen you catch that killer. But please make it soon. I’m doing my damnedest to make things safe for you again.

[ Monitor beeping ] You know… …I do like sparring with you in court. Going to be a while before we do that again. Guess I’ll just have to… come and spar in here. I’ll look forward to it, counselor.

[ Door opens ] I really do care for nikolas, but I’m also very aware of his limitations. And frankly, ava, you’re just too much woman for him.

[ Chuckles ] What is that supposed to mean? Oh, I think you know… but I’ll spell it out for you. You’re full of life, ava. You’re…vivacious and beguiling, a force of nature. I hate to see such a woman… wasted on the wrong man. Not that it’s one iota of your business, but who, pray tell, is the right man? One who would repay your loyalty with devotion of his own. You have someone in mind, have you?

[ Chuckles ] Well, as you americans say. I should… stay in my own lane. Suffice it to say, I do know the crushing disappointment of putting one’s trust in the wrong person. You and I, ava, we both deserve better. If victor is on to lucy, then he’s on to all of us, which means that this investigation is compromised and victor won’t be charged for his crimes. You’re talking about luke spencer’s death.

[ Exhales sharply ] God, I should never have done this. Hey. I should never have enlisted lucy to work victor. I was trying to keep her safe. Hey, for all we know, she still is. What are the odds of lucy leaving a designer shoe on the docks willingly? We have to assume that he’s figured it out and he’s dealt with her, and we both know what he’s capable of. But we know lucy… and what she’s capable of. She is relentless, and if anyone can survive victor, it’s her.

[ Grunting ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Wendy, listen, it’s uh, it’s Johnny. Gimme a call back when you get this. There’s something I need to talk to you about. It’s important.

Trip . I, I, I didn’t know you were in town. Come on in. Yeah, I’m just here for a while. Uh, I came back because Kayla has been seriously ill. I’m sure you know all about that. Yeah, of course I do. Yeah. Uh, my, my grandma Marlene has also been sick. How is Kayla? She’s down the mind, Thank God. And, uh, and so as your grandmother, really No, that’s, that’s great news.

Yeah. Yeah. Awesome. It’s a huge relief. I’ll have to, uh, give my grandma a call. Yeah, I’m sure she’d like that. Uh, anyway, I just came by to see my mom. Is she around? Oh, you, you didn’t know your, your mom. She left town. She moved away. Why? Uh, because my dad forced her to two.

It’s great to see you, Wendy. Uh, when did you get in yesterday? My brother didn’t mention. No, No. But um, in his defense, we have a lot going on. Then I’m guessing. He also didn’t mention that I asked him for a job at Damara headquarters. Then he shot me down. He said, No, sure did. So I came here to ask him to reconsider.

But since you’re ceo, maybe you could. Overruling, I’m sorry, Wendy, but I’m not gonna be able to do that. I’m uh, not CEO anymore.

Goods to bad A rush. Was that really necessary? Probably not, but it was certainly.

When I offered you this job, you said that being engaged to Gabby wouldn’t be an issue and it isn’t good because now that I’ve returned to my rightful position at top to mirror, no unnecessary distractions will be tolerated. My sole focus is running my empire, our empire. You wouldn’t have this position if it weren’t for me.

However, I’m the one who is here. I’m CEO now, so let’s be clear why your loyalties lie, especially since I know what you did to my brother.

Like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

So are, are you saying that my mom and Jake were never even married? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, my, my dad hired a team of detectives and. They were able to prove that Ava concocted that whole lie. He was ready to send her to prison for fraud, so it took off. He made a deal with her. He agreed he wouldn’t press charges if she agreed to leave Salem for good.

I, I, I don’t believe this if. I guess you didn’t tell me because she was ashamed. I’m sorry. For what it’s worth, um, I, I tried to talk him out of it. I really like your mom. Yeah. Even if she’s tried to scam your family. Nah. It’s just business. So the damaris lose a little pocket change. None of that mattered to me as much as your mom did.

What does that mean? Faster. She moved in. She and I got really close. Oh really? How close

you? You were voted out as ceo. That sucks. Just happened this morning. So who’s in charge E, Dara, Of course. Another entitled Straight White Guy. Yeah, but it’s no surprise to me he’s been wanting to get rid of me ever since he got back into town. Me and anyone who supports me. Guess that means Lee’s out too.

Nope. Nope. Lee’s still there. In fact, he’s being kept on Esky days number two. Oh, really?

Good morning, Stephanie. Morning. I assume you overheard me. Chiding Shin. I did, but I’m not sure over what? Well, it was on your behalf actually. You see why I’m happy to have Lee on board. It doesn’t change the fact that he only ascended to his current role by usurping your position. I was simply trying to keep the company on track.

We all want what’s best for the company, right? And I hope you know I wouldn’t have stepped in if my father hadn’t expressed his doubts about your mental competence. Doubts that are completely unfound. I appreciate the support EJ s Stephen. It’s obvious to me as it should be to anyone that you are totally com manis, and once we prove unequivocally to all concern that that is the case and that you are capable of taking your rifle places as my co ceo, it’s only a matter of time before that comes to pass.

It’s not right Lee. Of course.

Gwen. Gwen.

Oh, Quinn haven’t been able to start thinking about you. Oh, since I watched them wheel you in here after that accident. What? What you talking about? I’ll see you lying there looking so helpless knowing that you could have died. When that moment I realized I still love you, Quinn.

You love me. I never stopped loving you. I just keep thinking back to all the great times that we had, all the, the laughs and the love making. I miss those times. I miss you.

What about. Oh, Sarah was this ideal in my head. I convinced myself that she was the perfect woman for me, respected doctor from a good family, and then when she came back, felt obligated to reconcile. But now I realize that’s what it was, an obligation because the person I really want to be with, It’s you after all for kindred’s spirits, aren’t we?

Oh, and you. You are my one true love now and forever. That is, if you’ll still have me, if I’ll still have you of. Of, I’ll still have you. Oh, Sandra, I you, I love you with all my hots.

Uh, Gwen. Gwen

dad. Hi.

I can come back if I’m interrupting.

Good morning. Beautiful. Hi. Oh, and good morning to my equally beautiful mother-in-law. Oh, you know you don’t have to butter me up, Xander. You know I adore you. Just save those compliments for your wife. You’re exhausted. Burnt out, wife. Oh, bumpy nights. Bumpy and long. An entire high school football team came in with food poisoning.

You really haven’t lived until you’ve seen giant humans vomiting on one another. You paint quite the picture still. I think I prefer that to what I’ve been doing this morning. Why? Where have you been upstairs? I swallowed my pride and asked Uncle Vi, We can move back in.

Answer me Jay. Just how close did you and my mom get? Or you’re, you’re asking if, if we, Yeah, I’m asking if, Okay. Look, Ava was going through a really hard time, you know, it was right after Jake died and I was still pretty bummed about Chanel leaving me for my sister. Um, and we just kind of, you know, Leaned on each other, leaned on each other, how we just, we, we gave each other a shoulder to cry on.

And that was it. Yeah. Pretty much. Other than, Well, that there was that time we saw each other naked, but, But that’s, What’d you think? And then even when my dad caught us in bed, we just came,

EJ named my brother as his second in command. Yeah. Why do you think my brother and your father could be working together? I don’t know. It’s possible, right? They both want the same thing. I, I do don’t realize EJ and Lee had that kind of relat. Hey, don’t. So why wouldn’t EJ put his brother Stephan in that position?

The thing is that your father and the board had some concerns about Stephan’s cognitive abilities. I mean, the man’s been in a coma for four years. Must have been a shock to you when he showed up. It’s shock. That’s a, Well, that’s an understatement. You know, when I lost him. I thought my life was over. I prayed over and over for a miracle.

You got one? I did, but uh, it’s not the same man that he was. What do you mean?

I don’t know. It’s like a, a switch was flipped in his brain and now he hates me. Do you have any idea why? I don’t know how to explain it. Except. Except what? All right. Look, Dr. Wolf, he’s the mad scientist that we can thank for Stephan’s return. I just feel like somehow in the process, he turned my husband against me.

Why would he do that? I don’t know. Wolf Wolf’s never liked me, but yeah. No, no. Through that much trouble just to make me miserable. Doesn’t make sense. Okay? So if he did do something to make Stefan hate you, it wouldn’t have been out of spite. No, no. That’s not the pattern of this lunatic. Now there’s always some larger purpose behind his experiments.

Should we get down to business?

Now that Dira is back in the family’s control, we must make sure we never lose it Again, you’re here, but before we begin, we need to agree that anything we discuss here remain confidential. You don’t have any problems keeping secrets from your fiance, Dude, . I wouldn’t have accepted this job if I did.

Because thanks to her, long over you dismissal. She’s a wounded animal and that makes her extremely dangerous. The last thing we want is to give her an opening. I assure you, I will keep my personal life separate from Dira. You don’t talk in your sleep. Do you have nothing to worry? When it comes to Gabby and I, honestly, I don’t know why you don’t get rid of that woman altogether.

Excuse me. She may dress some nice clothes, but Gabby Hernandez is a feral cat who used our family business to give herself respectability as if that were possible. The woman is trash, a low red schemer. She did nothing for this company, but taint its good name with her. Nasty Bette. That’s enough.

Oh, yeah. Now, now you want to help me. Hmm? I’m sorry. I’m honestly not sure why that happened. It happened because you thought I was bragging to you about sleeping with your mother, which I did not. You didn’t. But but you just said Yeah, that my dad caught us together in bed, but nothing happened. Seriously.

Oh. Uh, be all right. I’m fine. Yeah. That my, my jaw’s gonna be a little sore later, but I’ll. I’m sorry, I, I shouldn’t have done that. Probably would’ve done the same thing if, uh, I thought she slept with my mother. So I guess I’m just a little sensitive when it comes to Damaris cuz the way your dad treated my mom.

Yeah. I, I, I don’t, uh, I don’t blame you. You know, it was a total s. But like I said, I, I, I really do care about your mom and I think she got a raw deal from my family.

Do you have any idea where she went? I don’t. Sorry. It’s okay. Thanks. I’ll see if I can track her down and I’m sorry. It’s okay. It’s okay. Just, uh, Good luck finding your mom.

You know, I’m kind of bummed that I won’t be working for you anymore considering my father’s rather retrograde ideas about women having a female ceo. Damara actually gave me hope about moving up in this. No, I appreciate you saying that, but Wendy, I was so impressed by you. I really wish we could have worked together well.

We’ll still be seeing quite a bit of each other.

You are gonna be my sister-in-law, right? ? Yeah, I am indeed. Yes. Your brother told me you were the. Person he called after he proposed. Yeah, I was honored to be his very first call. Congratulations.

So when’s the big day? Uh, well we actually haven’t said it yet, but soon, hopefully. Great. Keep me boasting, Coursey. You’ll probably be the first one to know that too. Thanks.

Well, I. I should probably get going. Yeah. It was really nice to see you and I’ll definitely tell Lee that you stopped by. Yeah, thanks. It was, uh, it was good to see you too,

Gabby. For what it’s worth, you deserve better. Better than you brother. No. I mean about the job,

Is there a problem? Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought you couldn’t stand Gabby. No, my, um,

my personal feelings about Gabby have no bearing on my reaction.

I just believe that speaking Ill about a man’s fiance to his face is, uh, unco to say the least. Oh, you’d prefer I do it to him behind his back, You know, if you’ll excuse me. I just realize there’s a pressing that I have to run.

How are you pushing all like that about Gabby? Are you testing rolls conditioning? Precisely. I need to make sure it’s working, which given his behavior just now, I’m not sure it is. If you heard Stephan, He’s the only defending Gabby because of me. Oh, come. No, you don’t believe that anymore than I do. Okay.

So his feelings for Gabby. It might be starting to resurface. What are we gonna do? It might be time to send old Steph back to the good doctor for a tuna. Ralph’s just gonna assure you that his conditioning is holding up just fine. Then he’s wrong. One or two more insults to Gabby, and he might have cracked, at least by the very least, best an aneurysm.

I’m glad you’re finding this so amusing. You’re enjoying. Well, you obviously don’t. In fact, it looks like you might bust an UR yourself. I’m outta here not until you tell me what the hell your problem is. My problem is your total disrespect for me and the woman I plan to marry. Whoa. And here I thought your first loyalty was to D Mirror.

In fact, you just said as much of me a few minutes ago and quite emphatically at that. Well, I’m about to say something else quite emphatically. I don’t appreciate you bad-mouthing my fiance no matter what. The reason I really, And what exactly are you going to do about it?

Oh, at least for me. Oh, who else? Congratulations my dear. What for? For getting out of here. Finally. I’m here to spring. You really? Are they officially releasing me today? That’s what they told me. I’m here to walk you into the sunlight if you’ll let me.

Of course. I’ll let you. I’d like that very much.

So, so, um,

Dad, about, for what you saw earlier, Oh, oh, oh, no explanation necessary. You’re a grown woman. You have very right to, uh, have a slogan with a pillow if the pillows consenting

right.

I suppose I was dreaming well, it looked like a very nice dream, and unless you were fantasizing about the state puffed marshmallow, man, I can assume that the pillow was a stand in for Xander. Sadly, Gwen, I know how much you loved him, and I know that those feelings don’t simply go away because we want them.

And no, they don’t. And yes, I know that he’s married to Sarah and I, I know that they seem to be happy together. And yes, I know that I said that I would let him go. But, but what?

But after my accident, he, Hey, it was right there. He had this concern in his eyes. No, it was, it was, It was more than that. It was, It was like he cared about me.

You both wanna move in here. Well crawl back to Uncle Victor is hardly my first choice, but I see another option. You can’t afford an apartment. And I’ve racked up a fair amount of debt at the sale moon and I have no way to pay it off. So, Well, Sarah, you’re earning a salary? Uh, well half a salary cuz I’m still on probation, not full time yet.

Oh. And it won’t be forever. It’s just like getting myself back on my feet financially, which will hopefully be soon. Just asked Jack for a job. You’re gonna work for Jack at the spect. Well, I haven’t had an official offer yet, but that’s not cuz Jack was distracted. But I think Jennifer’s the one who had Gwen

Sanders. Jack was distracted by Gwen’s Aism of, Of course,

you’re right Gwen. Zander heard that you were hurt. It was obvious how concerned he was, and he does care about you, sweetheart. But honey, he chose Sarah. He loves her, and he chose her over me. Yes, I, I get it when I, I, I don’t want to see. Wasting your time pining away for someone who’s not gonna return your feelings,

you deserve happiness too. Gwen, do I? After what did to Sarah and to Abigail, I made my mistakes. We all make mistakes. You know what I want you to do? Is to concentrate on feeling better. Figure out what you’re gonna do with the rest of your life, not that you’re getting outta here. Focus on the future. The future.

What future I, I don’t even have a job. I don’t have a home. Well, I suppose there’s something I can do about. Least in the short term. How about if you come home with me,

Wendy? Listen, it’s, uh, it’s Johnny. Gimme a call back when you get this. There’s something I need to talk to you about. It’s important. Hey, Wendy, I’ve been trying to get in touch with you. Yeah. I just got your. I have something important to talk to you about too. Okay, well then, uh, maybe we should take this someplace a little more private.

I meant every what I said about Gabby. You want to defend her on good? Right ahead. What the hell do you think you are? Excuse me. How the hell did you get in here? Johnny just told me everything. I know that you forced my mom to leave town . Once we, they, we been throwing temper ats today. Oh, so you’re at.

Why would I? Your mother got exactly what she deserved. She tried to defraud my family and my company. She was grieving and trying to keep her head above water by making up a lie about my dead brother. Maybe they weren’t officially married, but they were engaged. They loved each other. Oh, is that why she waited a whole five minutes before jumping into bed with my son?

Didn’t he tell you that? Look, if you’re trying to shock me, you’re too late. Johnny already told me everything. Oh, really? And how did you. Oh, you wanna know how I reacted? I do. Okay.

One day, did you forget something?

Oh.

Oh. I hope that was worth spending the night in jail. Not to mention blowing your medical career after you were charged with a sort of battery. Let’s show the guy some leniency. Huh? Tripping. His brother saved my sister’s life in Hong Kong over the summer, so I’m not only grateful to him, but I know he’s a really good guy who just lost his temper because he’s worried about his mom.

Not to mention it, if you call the. This becomes a major story. You sure you want that kind of publicity, right? When you’ve just taken over?

Fine. I want to love the authorities,

but get the hell out of here before I call in security and have them drop you off the roof accident.

Thank you

so. You have something important to discuss? I have something important to discuss. Who goes first? I go first. That was easy. I just came back from visiting my brother. Okay. Only he wasn’t there. Gabby was, And it turns out that Gabby has been ousted from Damara. My dad is the new CEO And your brothers is second in command.

Yeah, that that was my thing too. I mean, this is exactly what we were looking for. Right. If this just proof that Lee and EJ have been in cahoots all along. I don’t know what does, I mean, it, it, it, it definitely looks that way, but just because they pushed Gabby out doesn’t mean they had anything to do with Stephan, except, Gabby also told me that Stephan has been acting different ever since he came back from the dead.

You mean like he hates her now? Yeah. Yeah. Without any reasonable explanation. Does she have any theories on why that might be? Well, she suspects that Dr. Wolf guy brainwashed him or. But she also said Ralph doesn’t do anything without a purpose, so maybe my dad or your brother put him up to it. Step. Yeah.

Why don’t you just come on in, but what are you doing here? Wait. I know you came here to code. You came here to rub it in my face that you voted me out. I bet you’ve been wanting to do that, right? Isn’t it great? You voted me outta your life. You voted me outta your company too. Yeah. I don’t, You have better things to do.

I mean, you got your precious. Shares you. You pointed it up with your heartless brother to vote me out. Shouldn’t you be at the office with EJ celebrating? Finally, send. You’re here taunting me, Gabby. I didn’t come here to taut you.

I hope your sister appreciates you going to bat for her night in Shin. I doubt it. I know exactly on me. Best of terms, why not? Jwe actually showed up in Salem yesterday and asked for a promotion here at Tamara, to which my response was, No way or words to that effect. She’s a coder, right? Yes. Is she good at what she does the best?

Well then perhaps you should reconsider. After all, what’s best for DE is best for the both of us now while I go and put some ice on my nose to stop from swelling. Perhaps you should go and find your sister congratulate on a promotion.

Maybe the guy we really need to talk to is Dr. Roth. How do we track him down? Well, if my dad or your brother did put Ralph up to doing something to ste, there’s gotta be a trail, right? And maybe they’re still in contact with him. Worth looking into. I already tried Hacking Lee’s email account. He’s got it well protected.

Well, if it’s dme, how maybe. All it would take is any other high level to mirror password. I could work my way in through back door. I don’t have a high enough clearance level for that butt. Maybe I could get into my dad’s how It’s not like you can just ask him. No, no. And he is a pretty paranoid guy.

However, he had a severe injury a couple years ago and he’s still sensitive about lingering memory lapse. So he writes everything down. That way he doesn’t forget it, but things. Passwords. Yes. And if we can get into my dad’s computer, we might not even need your brothers. We’ll see. Either way it would be a big help.

I’m gonna head over there now. Okay. In the meantime, I’ll keep trying to crack my brother’s password. I’ll text you if I find anything.

Wendy, Chris? Hey.

Hey, well, if you didn’t come here to float, then why are you here? Actually, I, uh,

I came here to give you these.

Imagine your fiance wants to get married soon, and last time I checked, you need to be divorced first.

Divorce papers? Yes. Once you sign them, I’ll go ahead and file and we can be rid of this mess of a marriage once and for all.

You didn’t sign them? Not yet, no. Well, What are you waiting for, Stefan? Why don’t you go first?

Hey, Jack. Um, Sorry to bother you mate. I, your assistant taught me. Oh, it’s all right. I was just checking. Going out of the hospital. What’s up? Well, I want to follow up with you about a conversation from the pub. Oh. What conversation is that about? Maybe bringing me on at the Spectator. I could really use a job, mate.

Is it looking good?

What are you doing here? I thought you lived in Alaska and I thought you lived in Seattle. I, I do, but I, I just came back cause my stepmom had a health. Oh my God, I’m so sorry. Is she, is she all right? Yeah. No, no, she’s fine now. Thanks. But, uh, I just found out that my mom disappeared.

It’s Flo my lovely dad. It’s not dad.

I need your help

dad.

Oh, come on’s. Gotta be here somewhere.

What you doing here?

Why does it matter who signs them first? Thus it doesn’t. Okay, well then why didn’t you sign them before you got here? If you hate me so much, wouldn’t you want us to be over as quickly as. I do. All right then sign away. Fine.

Here you go.

What’s to matter, Stephan? Can’t you do it? What’s stopping?

Nothing. Stephan, just look at me. Okay? I know. I know that there is something in your brain that is telling you to despise me, but if there is a shred of you in there that doesn’t hate me, that doesn’t want you to sign these papers, just don’t do it. Okay? I know that you feel something. I know that you do.

Even if it’s the tiniest flicker, I know that something left inside you still loves.

What’s going on in here?

Steffy: Just in the nick of time.

Thomas: Thank you.

Assistant: You’re welcome.

Steffy: Thank you.

Thomas: I think it’s gonna be good for us.

Steffy: Yeah?

Thomas: Yeah. I think we’re ready.

Steffy: Okay. Let’s get started. So, obviously, you guys know that, uh, my father isn’t here.

Paris: Yeah. Traffic was pretty bad.

Carter: Yeah. What else is new?

Thomas: He’s in aspen with our mother.

Steffy: Our parents are back together.

Katie: What?

Steffy: Yeah. My dad ended it with brooke and went back to his true love. Our family is finally reunited.

Hope: I– I wish I could help somehow.

Brooke: I just can’t make sense of it. I mean, ridge and I have had problems in the past, but we’ve always managed to work through it. But when did that change for ridge and why did ridge leave me for taylor?

Hope: But you don’t think it might have something to do with douglas’ custody?

Sheila: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You don’t need that. Spoils my view.

Deacon: What did I do to deserve my twinkle toes?

Sheila: Yeah. Well, I might only have nine toes, but I do still have nine lives.

Deacon: Ah. Lord, are you up there? Look, I– I know that I haven’t always been a good man, and I know you’ve sent sheila here to test me. And I’m just asking for some–

Sheila: Are you praying? Wait. What? Okay. Uh, the almighty told me that I need to lay down some– some ground rules.

Sheila: Oh.

Deacon: Yeah.

Sheila: Yeah. But you know what? I don’t like rules.

Deacon: Yeah. Well, here– here they are. So, rule number one, you get caught, okay? I had nothing to do with it. All right? You go to prison, you pay the consequences. Rule number two. Rule number two.

Sheila: Mm-hmm.

Deacon: You’re gonna stay here, you are gonna stay right here. Right in this apartment where you’re safe, okay? No crazy disguises. No little excursions to go see finn and hayes or taylor and steffy or whoever, you know? Just they’re off-limits. You got it? You got it?

Sheila: Yeah.

Deacon: Good.

Sheila: You know, listening to you barking out of all of these demands I– I gotta say though, that you’re very sexy when you’re serious.

Deacon: I am serious, sheila.

Sheila: Okay. I will abide by your rules.

Deacon: You will?

Sheila: Yeah.

Deacon: Okay.

Sheila: ‘Cause I don’t wanna go back to prison. And this dump is paradise compared to a cell. And I’ll do anything to stay out of prison and everything to make sure that I keep creating paradise for you, daddy.

Deacon: Hmm. Daddy like.

Hope: Please tell me it wasn’t the custody issues between the families that ruined your marriage because–

Brooke: Honey. Stop. I– no, you’re not responsible for what happened with ridge. But now that you bring it up, I have to say I’m not comfortable with thomas’s role in douglas’ life. That image of the knife is just stuck in my head. And it was right there by douglas.

Hope: Mom, douglas is perfectly safe. Okay? Thomas has changed.

Liam: Mm. I’m with brooke on this one. I know that’s shocking. But the guy has shown us how unreliable he is over and over again.

Hope: Okay. No, he’s not like that anymore. And I have spent plenty of time over at eric’s, I’ve seen it firsthand. And can we not change the subject here? Can we focus on you, mom? Because I’m tired of talking about thomas.

Thomas: Uh, yeah. So donna has had time to absorb the news, but this must be a shock and a blow to you. Brooke is your sister, and this is gonna be a difficult transition for her.

Katie: What– what are you even talking about? You knew about this?

Eric: Just since yesterday, katie.

Donna: Yeah. And– and we were hoping things would change.

Paris: This is crazy.

Carter: Ridge really ended it with brooke?

Steffy: Apparently my father did some deep soul-searching and then it finally hit him. He picked a future with my mom the way it should have been all along.

Thomas: Yep.

Deacon: I’ve gotta be a complete idiot. I mean, there’s no way this ends well. Me letting you stay here is gonna go down as one of the biggest mistakes of my life. And if you know anything about my life, that’s saying something.

Sheila: At least you’re doing it for a good reason.

Deacon: Oh, really? Enlighten me.

Sheila: You’re having the best sex of your life, you can’t deny that. And don’t forget the whole money thing. I’m in a position to get you some toys like that motorcycle you’ve been eyeing.

Deacon: You noticed.

Sheila: I notice everything. The better to please you, my dear.

[ Loud banging on the door ]

Bill: It’s bill spencer, convict. Open up.

Ever notice how stiff clothes can feel rough on your skin?

Hope: So you’ve heard nothing at all from ridge since he left for aspen? I mean, have you tried reaching out?

Brooke: Ridge was very clear. He wants to be with taylor. Though I don’t know what it is that made him want to leave me.

Liam: You don’t think it has something to do with my dad, do you?

Brooke: No. There’s nothing going on between bill and me. Ridge knows that.

Hope: So has ridge officially asked for a divorce?

Brooke: I don’t know really what’s going on. All I know is that ridge is in aspen and taylor’s there and they both spent the night there.

Hope: You think.

Brooke: I’m assuming. Sorry.

Hope: No, no, no. It’s okay. Don’t apologize.

Liam: You have every right to be hurt right now.

Hope: And we love you. Okay? We got you.

Katie: Brooke and ridge over? No, no way. This isn’t happening.

Paris: Yeah. This is really hard for me to wrap my head around and I can only imagine how unthinkable it is for the family.

Donna: Thank you. Yeah, we’re– we’re really worried about brooke.

Eric: So we are. But, uh, we’ll take care of brooke. Everything she needs.

Katie: This doesn’t make any sense.

Thomas: I’m sorry if the reason for our happiness upsets you, but I’m not sorry that my parents are back together. They never should have been apart.

Steffy: Yeah. Brooke had her time with our dad. She blew it. Well, I just wanted to let you know what was going on.

Eric: There’s something else, since we’re bringing everyone up to date. There’s some more news, sort of unexpected and, uh, not quite as joyful as you feel your news was. But, um, carter, you wanna tell them?

Carter: How do you know?

Eric: Quinn texted me. She thanked me for all her years at forrester creations.

Paris: Quinn is leaving the company?

Eric: Yes, she is. And she has already.

Carter: And not just the company. Quinn left me too.

[ Loud banging on the door ]

Bill: Come on, sharpe, open up.

[ Loud banging on the door ] Now.

[ Loud banging on the door ]

Deacon: To what do I owe this displeasure?

Bill: Believe me, being in here makes me wanna puke.

Deacon: Sure. Come on in here. If I knew you were coming I would’ve baked a cake. What’s this all about?

Bill: Am I keeping you from something?

Deacon: Why are you here?

Bill: Because I have news. Brooke and ridge are no more.

Deacon: No more what?

Bill: No longer a couple.

Deacon: Get out of here. I don’t believe you.

Bill: Ridge is back with taylor. And it wouldn’t surprise me if those two tied the knot.

Deacon: And you’re here for what reason?

Bill: To make it crystal clear. Don’t let that little pee brain of yours go to a place where you think you have a chance with brooke. ‘Cause I’m here to tell you it ain’t happening. You didn’t live this strong, this long to get put

Paris: Wait. So after all that, after everything quinn went through to stop you from marrying me, she just left?

Carter: Yeah. And I’m still struggling to process it. And what we did to you was so unfair. Should have been honest with you. I was in love with quinn, and I know she loved me. I know she did.

Eric: Yes, of course, she did.

Carter: That text, it’s the only contact you’ve had with her?

Eric: That’s all.

Donna: Quinn didn’t say anything to him before that.

Eric: No, not a word.

Paris: So you don’t know where she went?

Carter: No. Look I’m sorry my love life is hijacking this meeting. So can we just, uh, can we just move on?

Thomas: I’m really sorry, man.

Steffy: No apology necessary. I’m sorry. It is true I wasn’t the biggest fan of quinn. Her jewelry line did exceptionally well for forrester. So on that level, she will be missed. But today’s really about celebrating our parents’ reunion.

Katie: Well, just remember in all that celebrating, no one should ever count out ridge and brooke.

Hope: We’re going to be here for you, mom. Okay? No matter what happens.

Brooke: I still don’t understand it. I mean how are ridge and I suddenly over?

Hope: Well, if it’s any consolation, I don’t get it either. I don’t get why ridge went all the way to aspen in the first place. I mean, I know that things were a little tense because of the douglas situation, but–

Brooke: Yeah, not that much. I mean, we still could have worked through that. So what was it? What? Is it– is it bill? Is it because of your father? What? I don’t get it.

Hope: It’s going to be all right. Okay? It’s gonna be okay.

Brooke: Oh, honey. Thank you. I just–

Deacon: So brooke and ridge are over.

Bill: Hmm. That really surprises you.

Deacon: Doesn’t surprise you?

Bill: Hell no. And that proves my point. You’re not worthy, not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. You see, the reason none of this should surprise you is that it’s painfully obvious ridge always lets brooke down. And if you paid even the slightest bit of attention, you would know that. But I will give you some credit. You always seem to know when brooke is vulnerable, and that’s when you slither in bringing trouble with you like the gutter snipe that you are. Well, don’t even think about it. This is my turf.

Deacon: Your turf? That’s interesting.

Bill: Ridge’s loss is another man’s gain. And that man is me, not you. So I am giving you a fair warning. Stay away from brooke.

Deacon: And that’s because what? You’re– you’re staking your claim?

Bill: Because brooke will come to me and you can count on that.

Deacon: Look, man, I think you’re jumping the gun in this whole thing. All right? You’re looking at it all wrong. Yeah. Beat your chest and, you know, grinding your turf, whatever. But treating brooke like a piece of property, all that does is it shows that you’re the one that really doesn’t know her at all. And now please welcome ana montoya.

Bill: Brooke doesn’t want you, deacon.

Deacon: Well, then you’ve got nothing to worry about.

Bill: She’s been hurt enough by ridge. She needs a man that can make her happy. Well, that ain’t you. You are nothing but a two-bit con man, always looking for an angle. And I’m, well, me. And I will help brooke get over ridge while on my yacht, which I will fly her to on my private jet. Am I painting a picture that even you can understand, convict?

Deacon: See, bill, I think you’re confused on this whole thing. It– it doesn’t matter to brooke how many zeros the guy has in his bank account. You know, she follows her heart. And she’s gonna go where it leads her.

Bill: And it will lead her straight to me.

Deacon: Hmm.

Bill: Because I check every box, heart, soul, and wallet. So you see that you’re out of your league on every level. In fact, if it wasn’t for hope, brooke wouldn’t even wanna be in the same room as you.

Deacon: I’m sorry, bill. I– I can see that bothers you that brooke and I have a child together. Um, well, look, I think I’ve been patient long enough, so I’m gonna ask you nicely. Please. Pretty please. Go.

Bill: Well that I can happily accommodate because frankly, it stinks in here.

Deacon: This guy, man. I’ll tell you.

Bill: That’s just a reminder of who you’re dealing with. The dollar bill spencer.

Deacon: Hey, he’s got his face on the money. It’s pretty cool. I think he’s off his meds.

Sheila: Did I hear right? Ridge left brooke?

Brooke: Why? Why ridge? Why?

Operator: Child protective

services.

Brooke: Hello?

I’d like to report a child

in danger.

Operator: And your name,

ma’am?

Thomas: Brooke logan.

Please hurry.

[ Audio rewinding ]

Brooke’s voice: Brooke logan

please hurry.

[ Loud bang ]

Steffy: I’m guessing you heard the news.

Hope: Mm. A victory for the forrester’S. Or at least that’s what you’re thinking, right?

Steffy: What are you implying?

Hope: That I know how you and your mother operate.

Steffy: Operate? What exactly did we do?

Hope: You actively planned and plotted to steal my mother’s husband away.

Steffy: No, no, no. Um, my mother is not a homewrecker, so that’s, like, way off base. There’s nothing premeditated about it. My mom’s always been honest about her feelings for my father. She just never acted on it. My mom has more integrity than that.

Hope: Mm. Really? I think my eyes must have deceived me then because I was at eric’s and I saw the way she was flirting with ridge. How she took every opportunity to get her hands all over him while he was still a married man. So what integrity? Your mom went about this in the most underhanded way possible and you helped her.

Steffy: Okay.

Hope: But I’m not going to let you get away with it. You and taylor are not going to be the reason that my mom’s marriage gets destroyed. And I will do my damnedest to stop you.

Sally: [ Sighing ]

Sally: I won’t stop fighting for what I want… if you won’T.

Sally: [ Sighs heavily ]

[ Keys clacking ]

Sally: Do you remember when you introduced me to this nectar?

Adam: As I recall, you took to it right away.

Sally: Just like I took to you right away.

Sally: [ Breathes deeply ]

Sally: When I am overcome with inspiration, I have a hard time holding back.

Nick: Whereas I tend to do the exact opposite — overthink things. Sometimes it’s best, though, just to dive in, learn as you go.

Sally: [ Sighing ]

Adam: Wait a minute. Are you saying that you’re falling in love with me?

[ Knock on door ]

Summer: Hi. Busy?

Sally: [ Sighs ]

[ Door opens ]

Adam: [ Sighs ]

[ Door closes ]

Nick: There you are. You weren’t at your place. Took a shot you’d still be up on the roof.

Adam: Well, congratulations, nick. You found me, okay? Now, I strongly suggest that you turn around and you head back down those stairs.

Lily: So what happened when you confronted tucker?

Devon: Oh. I tried my best, but it wasn’t easy to get a straight answer out of him. And at first, he was shocked that I would accuse him of trying to pull a takeover of chancellor-winters.

Lily: Well, was it real shock or fake?

Devon: At first I thought it was fake, and then he swore up and down that he would never do anything to jeopardize our relationship or hurt me or my company.

Lily: Right. Well, I know that he’s saying the right things, but do you actually believe him?

Devon: Well, that’s the question, isn’t it? I have no clue. I would feel dumb if I did, just because this is exactly the kind of thing that tucker would do. And he has a long history of going after companies and taking them over. So, who’s to say? I really don’t know who to trust these days after watching nate do something that unforgivable to his own damn family. I’ll tell you that.

[ Door opens ]

Victoria: Nate, come in.

Nate: Thank you for meeting me.

[ Door closes ]

Victoria: The message that you left me yesterday has me a little concerned. I assume that the development that’s not good that you mentioned has to do with our takeover plans for chancellor-winters.

Nate: That’s right.

Victoria: Alright, well, why don’t you give me the details and we can adjust our strategy accordingly. I’m sure that there’s, um — there’s no setback that we can’t possibly handle.

Nate: I’m afraid this is more than just a setback. The plan’s been exposed.

Victoria: Well, how in the world did that happen? Elena’s the only one that knew what we were up to, but she wouldn’t possibly betray you like that.

Nate: No. It wasn’t elena. The person guilty of betrayal here is me.

Ever notice how stiff clothes can feel rough on your skin?

provided by…

Victoria: You exposed our plan?

[ Scoffs ] Why on earth would you do that?

Nate: We were just about to file the final paperwork for the launch. Everything was coming together smoothly. I had truly convinced myself that this was the right move to make for all parties involved — the opportunity we were creating for everyone to benefit from. Lily and devon were too cautious to take the company to the next level, but not me. And then elena walked into the office.

Victoria: Why?

Nate: To tell me goodbye for good.

Victoria: I’m so sorry to hear that. I fear that I may have played a part in her decision.

Nate: What do you mean?

Victoria: I ran into her after our meeting. I tried to smooth things out with her — for you.

Nate: And what did you say to her?

Victoria: I simply implied that you were making a very wise business decision.

Nate: I can imagine how that went over.

Victoria: Didn’t go very well, and she accused me of being the only one that would get anything out of this deal and said that I didn’t care how it was affecting your relationship with your family.

[ Sighs ] I’m afraid that I made things worse.

Nate: No. No. I can’t blame you. Elena already made her position quite clear.

Victoria: I just…

Nate: When, um, things came to a head at the office and she walked out on me, I realized i had to reevaluate everything.

Victoria: I wish you would have figured this out sooner, like when I gave you the chance to back out. I even asked you if this was gonna be worth all the problems it was causing in your relationship.

Nate: At the time, I thought I could handle it, make it work.

[ Chuckles ] But I was — I was fooling myself. After I confessed, I came home to elena and told her I came clean for us. But it was more than that. On some level, I knew I had to do it because deep down inside, I knew she was right. Not only could I not risk losing her, but I had to admit that I didn’t want to lose my family. Now here I am, having lost them all.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Look, what are you still doing here, nick? I hope you didn’t get us locked on this roof because there’s not enough food or champagne if we get stranded here.

Nick: Don’t tempt me. I just might lock you up here all alone, unless you’re straight with me.

Adam: Look, may I suggest that we have this intense conversation another time? Because I am really not in the mood.

Nick: Well, you better get in the mood, adam. I’m not leaving here unless i get some answers. What is the matter with you? Why would you lure sally up here under false pretenses?

Adam: Well, based on your question, I gather that while i was up here waiting for the sun to come up, sally ran to you to spill her version of the story.

Nick: Yeah. I talked to her.

Adam: Oh, good. Should I even bother getting up? If I do, are you just gonna knock me back down?

Nick: I did not come up here to fight with you. But I want to make sure we’re clear about something. We are not going to put sally in the middle of yet another brother-against-brother feud.

Adam: [ Breathes deeply ]

Sally: Sorry, summer, i actually am quite busy here.

Summer: Really? You didn’t seem busy. It seemed like you were kind of drifting off the first two times I knocked.

Sally: Mm-hmm. Well, I am the ceo, and I have a lot on my shoulders, so often i contemplate what my next strategic move is gonna be, which is probably why I didn’t hear you knock. Sure, yeah, I can spare you a brief moment.

Summer: Yeah, I know you must be swamped trying to make a good impression here.

Sally: Exactly what brings you by you? You in the building visiting family, or do I owe this special visit just to see me?

Summer: No, it’s actually your lucky day ’cause I am here to speak directly to you.

Sally: Really? Well, why is that? Did you finally decide to take me up on my offer to promote your fashion house?

Summer: [ Chuckles ] No. Marchetti is doing amazing. Thank you. And judging by the way you do business, I don’t really want you anywhere near mine. This is about something else.

Sally: Hmm. I wonder what that could possibly be.

Summer: I want to know what’s going on between you and my dad, why you’re spending time together outside of the office.

Sally: You know, I don’t take all my meetings here. I mean, you know, people often do business over lunch.

Summer: This seems like a little more than a lunch meeting or two.

Sally: There’s nothing happening.

Summer: I saw you, sally, with my dad yesterday at crimson lights, and you definitely weren’t talking media outlets or having a meal. You were in each other’s arms. So just cut the crap and tell me what’s actually going on. And don’t even try to act like it’s innocent because it looked like anything but. Ladies…

Sally: I think you’re reading far too much into a simple hug. Nick and I are just friends. I don’t know about you and your friends, but mine offer me a supportive embrace and a little pat on the back every once in a while.

Summer: Really? You have friends?

Sally: Believe it or not, yeah, I do.

Summer: I’m gonna have to put that in the “not” folder. Just because we’ve stayed out of each other’s way lately doesn’t mean I trust you.

Sally: Well, rest assured, the feeling’s mutual.

Summer: Don’t think that I’ve forgotten the number you pulled trying to take over my old job at fenmore’S. So, yeah, the idea of you possibly dating my dad is beyond disturbing.

Sally: Okay, look, whatever happened back then is old news. I am not that same person anymore.

Summer: One more thing I find unbelievable.

Sally: Tell me, summer — why did you feel the need to talk to me about this? Why don’t you just go directly to your father?

Summer: Because I wanted to see what all of this was about first. I know how you like to operate, sally. So, just tell me. Are you using my dad to make adam jealous, or is this a power move of yours because my dad is now in at newman media and adam is out?

Sally: So, what is it that you’re trying to say, that it’s absolutely impossible for me to just enjoy nick’s company and he mine? Clearly, in your mind, there’s no innocent possible reason why we could be hanging out. It all has to be low and conniving.

Summer: You said it.

Nick: Hey. Did you hear me?

Adam: Of course I did. I mean, when nick newman makes one of his heroic declarations, everyone listens. Except this one fell a little flat because sally isn’t in the middle of anything, nick, since I can’t compete with my great and noble big brother.

Nick: Come on, man.

Adam: No. I mean, really. Please proceed on your chivalrous crusade and keep playing the role of the protector to the hilt.

Nick: I heard about this little stunt last night while sally was still here. Did you see me rush over here to come to her rescue?

Adam: Why is that? Was your, uh, cape at the dry cleaner?

Nick: I just figured you two needed some time to work out some things, so I gave you some space. But I need to know going forward, do I need to protect her from you?

Adam: [ Scoffs ] Please relax. I’m not a glutton for punishment. And I can take a hint. Alright? Sally has made her choice, and I’m not gonna beg. I know I can’t force her to forgive me.

Nick: Well, I’m glad you finally realized that.

Adam: So you and sally are free to do whatever the hell you want together. And I guess I’m destined to lose everything I want and I care about to one sibling or the other. It’s called “the curse of the black sheep.”

Lily: Look, I feel the same way, okay? What nate has done is incredibly hurtful.

Devon: What happened yesterday after I left? Did he still just try and blame everything on me?

Lily: Honestly, I don’t even remember anything that he said, really. I mean, I just — I’ve been in complete shock. I can’t even believe that he would do this to us. Billy is furious.

Devon: He’s not the only one.

Lily: And I keep trying to concentrate on work, but all i can think is, how could he do this, I mean, to his own family? He was so a willing to put us in a vulnerable position to where we could lose control of this place.

Devon: Oh, I know. Believe me. And I understand why it’s hard for you to focus on work, but I’ll tell you that that’s exactly what we all need to do. We need to clear our minds and figure out how to move forward strategically.

Lily: No, I know, and we were all systems go when it came to the ipo.

Devon: Right, and so was this other person that nate was working with. And assuming that tucker’s telling the truth, did he give any hints about who it is?

Lily: No. After everything, he didn’t tell me anything. So we’re facing an unknown attacker.

Devon: Well, that’s — that’s great. So, the smart thing for us to do, then, is to pull the plug on this ipo deal.

Lily: Well, look, we can’t make that call, okay? Not right now, anyway.

Victoria: I’m just so sorry that your decision to form an alliance with me has — has cost you so much.

Nate: Yeah. I’m sorry, too. For so many things, I mean, including letting you down. I know you were already making financial moves to free up the necessary capital to buy chancellor-winters’ shares.

Victoria: Well, yes, it did take a little maneuvering, but it’s nothing that can’t be undone. Right now, I’m just wondering when a furious devon and lily are gonna come banging down my door. I’m sure they’re not very happy with me.

Nate: You don’t have to worry about that. I never revealed your identity. I only told them that I was meeting with another ceo. And tucker mccall’s well-timed splashy entrance puts the spotlight on him as the likely culprit. And I refused to confirm or deny.

Victoria: I appreciate your personal loyalty. But the fact that you didn’t expose me makes me realize something.

Nate: What’s that?

Victoria: All is not lost. We could still pull off this takeover. I’m not sure I’m ready to give up on the idea of controlling chancellor-winters.

Nate: But their guard is up now, and they’re gonna be extremely cautious.

Victoria: Yes, but lily and devon see tucker as the only threat left. They don’t think I’m involved at all. And they think that you’ve given up. So you could still sell me your shares. You told me that you feel like you’ve already lost everything. So, what do you have to lose? This is gloria.

Nick: I don’t believe in curses. I believe we make our own destiny.

Adam: Yeah, of course you do, nick, because 9 times out of 10, you get what you want with minimal effort.

Nick: [ Sighs ] Look, you’re still in love with sally. I get it. And I know you don’t take those emotions lightly. But do you mean it when you say you’re going to accept this? Or are you going to do what you always do, and that is blame everyone else and punish everyone else for the situation, a situation that you created in the first place when you pushed sally away?

Adam: Don’t worry, nick, okay? I’m not gonna ruin any lives before I’ve had my morning coffee. And I’ll probably restrain myself after that. So, rest assured, you can run back to sally and tell her that you saved the day yet again. Meanwhile, I have a job to go to. Unless you’re going to take that away from me, too.

Nick: [ Sighs ]

[ Door closes ]

Summer: Look, I didn’t come here to throw around insults. The point is that my dad deserves better — much better.

Sally: Do you not see that what you just said is the exact definition of an insult?

Summer: Take it however you want. You just need to understand that my dad has had enough romantic drama to last a few lifetimes.

Sally: Yeah, thanks to your mom.

Summer: He deserves something clean and easy and honest. He has a big protective heart, and he’s got this overwhelming desire to save broken people. But you, sally, you’re not just broken. You’re a train wreck. And the last thing he needs is to be pulled into your disaster of a life.

Sally: Well, thank you, summer, for your sage advice. I definitely will take that into consideration. But just for the record, what i think he deserves is more credit from his daughter. Why don’t you just let him make his own decisions, like he lets you make yours?

Nate: I hear your argument about not giving up on our plan. Yes, it’s over between me and elena. And unfortunately, lily and devon may never forgive me. But the plan isn’t even possible anymore.

Victoria: Why not?

Nate: I had no previously agreed-upon contract for the shares. Neil willed me a seat on the board of hamilton-winters, but that never legally translated into an ownership stake, even after the merger.

Victoria: But when they do go public…

Nate: If they do go public, and I’m sure that’s all up in the air now. And they will never give me any shares. Even if I had stock, what elena said really hit me. She was right about the person i was turning into. And I need to decide what kind of man I want to be. And I have.

Victoria: Nate, listen, what we were planning — it didn’t make you a terrible person.

Nate: Maybe not, but what i was doing to my family was ultimately hurting them. And I never want to do that again because the man I want to be wouldn’t sell my shares to you or anyone. After neil passed away, he left me a seat on the board of his family’s company because he trusted me. How could I have forgotten that? The whole point of the merger was for all of us to come together. If I act now, I may have a chance to get my family back, and I need to focus on that.

Victoria: I can’t be upset at you for being true to your family. It’s something that my father instilled in me since I was very young. I want you to be successful.

Nate: Thank you for understanding.

Victoria: And I know that you were able to keep my name out of it, even under what i assume was extreme pressure from lily and devon. And then you came to me with the news right away, and that means a lot to me.

Nate: It was the right thing to do.

Victoria: I think I have a way to reward that loyalty. I assume that you’re not employed at chancellor-winters anymore.

Nate: I was fired. No surprise there.

Victoria: Well, I would like to make sure that you don’t stay unemployed for long. I’m gonna find you a suitable position here. Chancellor-winters’ loss is newman’s gain.

Kyle: Just checking to see if the plane is ready to take off. Did you stock the galley with chocolate-covered strawberries and champagne like I requested? Thanks. Good. Want the honeymoon to start off right. You look like hell.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Well, I guess that’s why you’re in the fashion division and I am not.

Kyle: What’s your problem, adam?

Adam: Hmm? Um, I wasn’t aware that I had one.

Kyle: Well, lately, you rarely even show up to work, and today you show up late and clearly in no condition to do any legitimate work. I told my father that you’d be nothing but a liability to this company, and every day you prove me more and more right.

Adam: [ Breathes deeply ] Want to wake up to smoother, brighter skin day 1?

“The young and the restless”

will continue. There’s nothing like hitting the waves.

Devon: Well, hang on now. Why are you against shutting down the ipo deal? ‘Cause if we go public, it’s gonna make us vulnerable again to another attack like the one we just avoided with nate.

Lily: Because it’s not up to me. Going public was jill’s idea. We have to check in with her and see where she stands.

Devon: She’s gonna be pissed that this even happened. That’s where she’s gonna stand. And I highly doubt she’s gonna want to open ourselves back up to it happening all over again, right?

Lily: Okay, look, I don’t know what she’s gonna do, okay? But we have to take it into consideration because she’s co-owner.

Devon: No, that’s fine. We can consider it all day and night, but at the end of the day, I’m not gonna do it. I’m not. Half of this company is called winters, as in what I created with our father. So it’s just as much mine as it is hers. And I’m not gonna let anybody have a shot at screwing up what we built again. So, if jill wants to insist on going public, tell her to talk to me.

Nick: Hello, supergirl.

Summer: Hey, dad. Thanks for meeting me on such short notice. Look, there’s something that i want to discuss with you, and i want you to be completely honest with me.

Nick: Alright. Hit me.

Summer: Please tell me that you’re not getting involved with sally spectra.

Nick: [ Sighs ] I’m assuming you heard that from your brother.

Summer: [ Sighs ] That’s not the answer that i was hoping for. Dad, I’m only asking you about this because I’m worried about you. You must realize how dangerous she can be, how this could end in disaster, the way that you and mom repeatedly did.

Nick: I don’t think either one of those women want to be lumped together.

Summer: No, you’re right. Mom is nothing like that viper. It’s the situations that are comparable — you getting involved with a woman who’s not completely over her ex. Adam and sally. Mom and jack. I just… I don’t want to see you go through that again.

Nick: Summer, I understand what you’re getting at, but right now sally and I are just close friends.

Summer: You really mean that? There’s nothing more complicated or emotionally risky going on?

Nick: It’s nothing for you to worry about, okay? And, honestly, if there was something going on with me and sally, I can take care of myself.

Sally: Connor. Hi. You here alone?

Connor: Mom dropped me off to meet my dad, who’s late. But I’m fine. I’m not a kid, you know.

Sally: You’ve always struck me as very mature.

Connor: You here to take me to dad? Because that’d be cool if you were.

Sally: Uh, no, actually, that’s not why I’m here.

Connor: Oh. So, you and my dad aren’t back together again?

Adam: That’s funny, kyle. But why are you criticizing me? Don’t you have an important meeting about evening gowns to get to?

Kyle: Just go home. Get some sleep before anyone else notices your raggedy appearance and lack of professionalism.

Adam: Well, thank you for the advice, but why would I be worried about people noticing how I look when I’m sure you will waste no time spreading the word about that? And be sure to tell your father that I can’t handle a job that you totally bailed on. Nobody would ever think you are bitter about that.

Kyle: You just can’t take the loss, can you? You could admit that you screwed up and deal with the fallout, but, no, that would be too easy. You just have to keep digging that hole deeper.

Adam: You see, I would explain, but you wouldn’t understand it, kyle. It would go right over your head. See, men like you will never understand men like me.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ] I hope I never will. But I’m done wasting my time with you because as of this moment, I am on vacation. So you can keep digging that hole until you bury yourself in it. I’m not gonna stop you. There’s nothing like volunteering

Nick: Why are you even worried about this, summer? I mean, shouldn’t you be off packing, like, 16 pieces of luggage for your honeymoon?

Summer: Ha, ha. Very funny, dad. And I’ll have you know I have already packed — very lightly, at that.

Nick: Look at you, going light. Is that, like, 15 pieces then?

Summer: I mean, I’m not gonna need much more than some swimsuits and sunscreen where we’re going. This trip to costa rica — it’s gonna be amazing, all thanks to my wonderful husband. And to top it off, harrison is gonna come meet us for the last few days.

Nick: Well, it sounds like a perfect honeymoon.

Summer: Yeah. What more could a girl want? Although, I have to admit, I’m a little bit nervous about leaving marchetti.

Nick: I think they can manage without you for a week.

Summer: Yeah, maybe the company can, but what about mom and diane working together, having their kids so far away that we couldn’t do anything if they did try to pull something?

Nick: Look, just try and let it go, okay? You and kyle deserve this amazing trip. Promise me you’re not gonna let anything interfere with that.

Kyle: I promise for both of us.

Nick: There he is.

Well, glad you came. I got to go. I love you. You two have a great trip.

Summer: Hey, dad? I let you change the subject this time, but the conversation’s not over.

Nick: I can’t even hear you.

Kyle: I have a feeling I know what that conversation was about — sally, right? After the earful you gave me last night about seeing sally and your father together, I’m sure you had plenty to say to him now.

Summer: Yeah. I asked my dad what was going on, and I also confronted sally about it.

Kyle: Well, how did that go?

Summer: They both claim to be just friends, but it left me thinking that there’s certain benefits involved. I — [ Shudders ] I didn’t dare ask for clarification.

Kyle: Yeah, I get it. Too upsetting to even imagine.

Summer: Yeah.

Kyle: I had an equally frustrating run-in with my replacement this morning. Adam showed up late to jabot, looking hungover.

Summer: You’re kidding me. What — what is he thinking?

Kyle: Nope.

Summer: No.

Kyle: No more.

Summer: We are not talking about sally and adam.

Kyle: Or our mothers or even the issue with the textile company that is pushing back our resort collection.

Summer: No, we’re not gonna let anything wreck this vacation.

Kyle: Mnh-mnh.

Summer: From this moment forward, we are on honeymoon time.

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Sally: I didn’t realize that you knew that your dad and i were dating. I guess kids know a lot more than adults give them credit for, huh?

Connor: Again, I’m not a kid, okay?

Sally: Right. Sorry.

Connor: My dad was always in a good mood after he was with you.

Sally: That’s very grown-up of you to notice. And very sweet of you to say.

Connor: I mean it. He would smile and laugh a lot. I could tell he was happy for a change. Now my dad’s back to not smiling so much.

Sally: I’m really sorry to hear that. But maybe part of the reason he’s so serious is because of his new, important job.

Connor: No. That’s not it. It’s because dad misses you.

[ Cellphone pings ]

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Nick: Hey.

Victoria: Oh, good. You’re here. I need to talk to you.

Nick: Well, I can tell by that expression on your face something’s gone sideways.

Victoria: I’m sure that you’ll be pleased to hear that the chancellor-winters takeover deal seems to have imploded.

Nick: Didn’t want to do it in the first place. I thought it was gonna end up in a disaster, and it would have destroyed our relationship with devon and lily. I am curious about what happened, though.

Victoria: Nate had a major change of heart.

Nick: Well, I’m glad he saw the light, that family is far more important than climbing a corporate ladder.

Victoria: Actually, I think that his second thoughts had more to do with his relationship with elena.

Nick: Can’t fault him for that.

Victoria: I suppose not, but even though he sacrificed the deal for her, she still might leave him.

Nick: And I’m sure you blame him for your deal falling apart?

Victoria: No, not at all. I feel bad for him. Look, I know you think that I’m overly ruthless right now, but i would never let my ambitions get in the way of my friendships.

Nick: I’m glad to hear that.

Victoria: So, now that newman no longer has this major deal on the table, I am going to refine things closer to home.

Nick: Alright. Where do you want to start?

Victoria: Newman media. I want to replace sally with nate.

Nick: I cannot believe after everything that happened with your bid to acquire chancellor-winters that you would turn around and offer nate sally’s job.

Victoria: I haven’t offered it to him yet. But I did tell him that I wanted to find a place for him here at newman.

Nick: As, what, a consolation prize? This can’t be a knee-jerk response just because chancellor-winters slipped through your grasp.

Victoria: That is not what this is. Look, I know, for whatever reason, you’ve been in sally’s corner, but I’ve always thought we could get a much stronger person in the position.

Nick: Just hear me out. Nate may have changed his mind, but he was ready and willing to turn his back on his family and his company. He has proven that his loyalties are flexible at best. And now you want to bring him into our company and fire sally without due cause?

Victoria: And nate showed his loyalties to me when he came to me immediately to tell me that he was confessing to devon and lily that he was planning on selling his shares. He never mentioned to them that I was the ceo that he was plotting with. And, to me, that counts for a lot, nicholas.

Nick: So, is that what this job is — a bribe to make sure he keeps his mouth shut?

Victoria: No! No. I trust nate. And the way that he handled the situation showed me that he’d do a great job of running newman media.

Nick: If all that you told him was that he could have a position at newman, let’s find something else for him, preferably an open position so we don’t have have to fire anyone.

Victoria: This is the job that I want him to have. I told you from the very beginning that sally was not right to run newman media. My initial instinct was to fire her.

Nick: But then you realized you were wrong.

Victoria: No. I was swayed by her passion and her enthusiasm, which was a huge mistake. She never had the background for this job.

Nick: So, you’re saying an M.D. Has the appropriate qualification to run a media company?

Victoria: I appreciate that nate has been highly educated. And, yes, a ceo should be a graduate of more than just the school of hard knocks.

Nick: Look at our father. He was completely self-made. That never stopped him.

Victoria: Oh, my god, you cannot be seriously comparing sally to dad, can you?

Nick: Look, I am willing to talk about this later when we give it more time and thought, but I do not like this move, not now and not like this.

Victoria: Fine. We’ll table the discussion for now. But I want this to happen. Nate is a good man. He would be a great asset to have on board at newman media. You need to understand that, nicholas.

Nick: I do. But for now, we agree to do nothing.

Sally: So, how’s school going?

Connor: Okay.

Sally: Did you make any new friends?

Connor: Yeah, sure.

Sally: And what about hockey? Are you playing much?

Connor: Our season hasn’t started yet, but we’re practicing.

Sally: Yeah. I bet that’s keeping you busy.

Connor: Yeah.

Sally: [ Chuckles ] What about your mom? She busy, too? Was she in a rush whenever she dropped you off here by yourself?

Connor: No. I told her I saw dad in here so she wouldn’t worry and would just take off.

[ Sighs ]

Sally: Why would you do that?

Connor: I just wanted to get out of the car.

Sally: Well, you know, parents and kids get in arguments, right? It’s just temporary. They always make up.

Connor: This is different. Mom thinks were fine, but we’re not, not anymore.

Nate: [ Sighs ]

Devon: So, now it’s just the two of us. I’m gonna need you to help me understand what the hell is wrong with you and why you’d want to screw us over the way you did.

Nate: Mm. What’s the point in trying to explain things now? It’s over. I’m out of the company.

Devon: I’ll tell you exactly what the point is. This is your opportunity to finally explain everything to me and come clean. And since there’s no job on the table, there’s no reason for either of us to hold anything back, right?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

that’s very generous of you to help me sort through my brother’s things. Most people want nothing to do with peter august, alive or dead. I mean, it’s the least I can do to repay you for convincing me to get a dna test, figure out whether or not the chief of detectives is my dad.

[ Chuckles ] Well, if mac really is your father, you have a lot to celebrate. If you say so. I do say so! Mac is a great guy. This could be the start of something really wonderful for you. But no matter what we find among peter’s possessions… …my family’s legacy will haunt me to my grave. The secret that you’ve been carrying around… you sure you don’t want to unload it? I mean, it — it might make you feel better. Thank you, um, so very much for being so very understanding. I mean, I — I know I don’t have to apologize for being alone in your room, but it’s just with martin back in town, perhaps it’s how — shall we say — more appropriate that we meet in public. Well, don’t look now, but we are already being watched. Oh, I see that scott does not approve, perhaps, of my choice in dining companions. Next time I dump him out of a plane, I won’t include a parachute.

[ Clears throat ] Oh. Kidding.

[ Chuckles ] Kidding. Of course you are. Lucy i s refusing to endher involvement with victor, which means that we’re gonna have to intervene. Anna, I’m not gonna be able to help you. Why? Is he watching you too closely? Victor’s getting rid of me. I’m afraid mr. Baldwin is laboring under the delusion that I’m interested in dr. Liesl obrecht. So…are you? Currently? I only have eyes for you, my dear. Lucy: So it’s just a matter of time before I figure out what victor’s nefarious plan is, and then you — you get to take it to robert. I — I do hope martin understands. Right. Like you really do care. No, I don’T.

[ Chuckles ] But I know you do. Hiya, scotty. What, are you all alone? Where’s liesl? Uh, hiya, ava. She’s, uh, babysitting the grandkids. Wh– oh. Now, you do know that victor is no threat, right? Not to me. I’m fairly certain lucy coe can take care of herself. Yes. Yes. She’s a tough cookie. I’m thinking about you. Me? Yeah. I-I’m speaking to you here as your friend and your lawyer. You have got to cut ties with the cassadines, starting with that no-account husband of yours. Recent repairs on the points and lintels on the south tower have been completed in time for the first blast of winter. Excellent work. Thank you, sir. Hopefully, mrs. Cassadine will approve? Well, it’s mrs. Cassadine that I’m thinking of. That’s why there will be no repairs on the north tower. But, sir, if we don’t complete them before the — this is not open to debate. Further repairs will have to wait until springtime at the earliest. Is that clear? Yes, sir. Sign here. Until I say otherwise, the north tower is strictly off limits. Who am I kidding? There’s no way out unless I grow wings or I’m willing to risk falling into the lake again.

[ Gasps ] I guess I’m not the only one who’s trapped in here, huh? Yes, I know. You didn’t ask for this. Join the club. But we’re in this together. And I am gonna find our way out.


Believe it or not, I am a good listener, so whatever’s bothering you, I’m here. Yeah, see, that’s the thing. I did open up to someone, and he was very understanding. And not long after that, he was killed in a tragic accident. And, what, you think somehow those two things are connected? No, I-I don’t think the world works like that. It’s just the benefit I got from opening up was so short-lived, it’s hard to justify taking that risk again. And besides, you’re a horse whisperer. It’s not like you’re a priest to confide in.

[ Chuckles ] Well, I-I-I’m definitely not a priest. And I am damn good at taking care of horses. But, I mean, I’ve got other layers, too, just like you. You listened to me worry about whether I could live up to the heroic mac scorpio standards. So you really think I’m gonna be scared off by being reminded that cesar faison’s your dad and peter august is your brother? Remember, if mac scorpio is not my biological dad, that means that leopold taub is. So I do know what it’s like to be finding out that you’re related to bad guys. Except you seem intrigued by my family relations. Why is that? Look, I just offered to help you look through your brother’s belongings. That’s it. Given my brother’s history, most people run the opposite way when he’s brought up. But not you. So why do you want to help me? What does that mean? Victor’s getting rid of you? No. Should I be worried? He says he’s gonna let me go see charlotte. Not out of the goodness of his heart, obviously. People are starting to ask questions, why she’s been gone so long with no visitation. So it’s in his best interest to put me on a jet to go see her. Or he’s luring you into a trap. Of course I care about martin. He’S…a dear. Well, so is bambi, but I don’t see you living on berries and leaves the rest of your life. I see you enjoying much greater luxuries. Well, you know, martin is an attorney, and it’s not like he’s living on poverty row. He’s also a-a very kind man, and the last thing I want to do is hurt him. Alright, so that’s the last thing you want. What’s the first thing on your list?

[ Chuckles ] Well, I do so love this absolutely gorgeous necklace that you gave me and not to mention equally gorgeous and beautiful bracelet that matches perfectly. Well, it is one of a kind, after all. Just like the lovely lady who’s wearing it. So what was martin’s reaction to all these new additions to your jewelry box? Oh, I-I-I just made it clear to him that what we have is strictly platonic with… a dash of business thrown in. So what do you say we continue that business that was so prematurely cut short when my man johann fell overboard? You’re late to the party, scotty. I’m no longer living at wyndemere. I’m staying with nina in my old penthouse. So nikolas is all alone in that pretentious pile of rubble. Okay, listen, ava. I mean, y-you can run circles around me in the art world, but when it comes to legal matters, you know… and marriage? I mean…I’ve been there, and — and I know that marriages, they just don’t die like that. They are like… vampires. Y-y-you got to put a stake through their heart to end it. Do you — do you have something in mind? Yeah, yeah. You got to sort of figure this out because I-I — my hands are tied when you ripped up the prenup and the postnup. However, I-I think that things can be changed. But, you know, the biggest blunder you made was leaving the house ’cause the spouse that stays in the house has a leg up. But if we act quickly, I think we can fix that. And do what exactly? We got to undo nikolas before he tries to undo you. So we — we got to file divorce first.

[ Sighs ]

[ Keys jingling ] Nikolas: Step away from the door, esme! Now! Oh! So you’ve decided to feed me and your unborn child? How thoughtful of you. Honestly, I could care less whether you live or die. But I do care about that child that you’re carrying. So when I come back, I expect you to be a member of the “clean plate club.” Going forward, you should know I hate milk. I don’t care. The baby needs calcium. And what about what I need? And what you need? Speaking of babies, um… remember how we made this one?


Y not see it, but I actually think we’re pretty similar.

[ Chuckles ] Okay. I’ll bite. How do you think we’re similar? Well, there’s a big part of me that wants to pretend that I have no past — I can just shape my life the way I want it. No strings. No responsibilities. And most of all, no expectations. But you can’t run away from your past, can you? No matter how hard you try. You know, I-I-it’s not too late to just forget about the stuff that your brother left you and just dump it in the trash and move on. You don’t think I’ve considered doing just that? What’s stopping you? My brother wanted me to have these things for whatever reason. If there’s nothing of value, which there probably isn’t, at least I’ll know. But on the other hand, maybe there was something I missed. Something that might never come around again. Yeah, I’d hate for that to happen. Me too. Well, it’s your call. Let’s get out of here. Wait. W-where are we going? Look, this is victor cassadine we’re talking about. He’s perfectly capable of using my daughter as bait. What if he has decided that you are more trouble than you’re worth? You know, he — he knows that you are calculating, potentially lethal, and, if he’s honest, smarter than he is. If he’s honest. My point is that he is telling you what you want to hear in order to get you out of town and cut his losses. I think the odds are pretty good that he is laying a trap. So why would you give him that opportunity? Because I miss my daughter. I think we should continue mixing business with pleasure, starting with a sunset cruise around the harbor. Well, after all, our last attempt at a cruise was rudely scuttled. I think it only fair we try again. Anyway, the — the city lights are so very conducive. Conducive. Ah. Um… conducive to what? To work, of course. What else? Hm. Hm-hm-hm. Mm! Well, you know, before I could accept your lovely offer, I really don’t know absolutely anything about your business. Um, for example, I don’t think you have an office, not to mention the fact I don’t even think you have a — a mailing address. Ah, it’s really no different from yours. Ah. I sell…beauty. What are you selling, victor? Join me on the cruise and you’ll find out. Scotty, aren’t you the same friend who once told me that nikolas and I have something special and we shouldn’t throw it away? Yeah, but that was before you told me in confidence that he was running around on you! Yes, I told you “in confidence.” Confidence! Which means it’s covered by attorney-client privilege. Yeah, but, ava, we could get a big settlement. Scott, I’m gonna stop you right there. Nobody can know that nikolas cheated, okay? But — no one can know. If you breathe one word of it, I will turn you in for a violation of ethics and I won’t stop until you’re disbarred! Do you understand me?! Alright. I won’t mention the unmentionable. Good. And that means you can’t talk about it in written form, either. No texting or e-mailing about it. Nothing. Yeah, yeah. Good. But, ava, it — it makes me as mad as a hornet to know that you’re protecting nikolas. I’m — I’m not. Come on. Now, I-I’m gonna say this. You know, I-I’m trying to help you here move on with your life. You gave nikolas your best shot. It didn’t work out. So let’s help you find somebody that really… deserves you, hm? I haven’t forgotten. Neither have I. Why are we treating each other like enemies when… things could be so much more enjoyable between us? I haven’t forgotten every low-down, dirty trick you pulled to get ava out of my life or how you framed trina robinson for that sick video that you made, and I haven’t forgotten how you tried to turn my own son against me. Oh, so we’re back to the same old song again. Why don’t we talk about your wife attempting to kill me?

[ Scoffs ] Thank god that baby in your belly is half mine, because I shudder to think what it’s gonna inherit from your side. Oh, you have no idea. Enjoy your food. And don’t forget to drink every drop of milk.

[ Keys jingling ]


[ Screams ] Unh! You little psycho! Nikolas! Think about your baby! I might have done the world a favor. But cassadine blood is thicker than whatever is coursing through those veins. And you think keeping me a prisoner is good for your precious little heir? You know, people thought that you were dead, and no one shed a tear. For the most part, people were relieved. I mean, let’s face it — the only people that want you are the pcpd, and that’s just because they want to throw you in prison. There is evidence and testimony that you framed trina and you drugged oz haggerty. So you are better off here than in lockup. And what about after… I have the baby? The baby will be given around-the-clock care from the best nannies in the world. He or she will live in a lap of luxury going only to the finest schools in the world. And me? You…esme… are expendable. Ava: What are you doing? Well, I-I’m being specific here. Judges, they don’t like when you just throw some random number at them. They — they want to know what’s — what’s going on. And, you know, since I can’t mention the “unmentionable”… so what we got going is the fact that your stepson stalked you, his girlfriend lit your car on fire. So we’ve got to, you know, let the court know that the abuse, the mental abuse that you suffered at being married to nikolas cassadine. Okay, so you’re holding out for true love when it comes to your own life, but when it comes to my marriage, y-you want me to run to the nearest divorce court. Even though nikolas has made it clear that he really wants to work things out. Ava! That’s what he wants! What do you want?! I don’t know what I want. But I know that I don’t want you or anybody else to dictate what I should be doing.

[ Groans ] A sunset cruise in the brisk autumn air sounds delicious and heavenly and quite refreshing.

[ Chuckles ] Oh, but I — you know, I couldn’t possibly go like this. I-I’d need to change out of this old thing. Naturally, you’d want to change into your “business” attire.

[ Chuckles ] Uh, as a matter of fact, I do have something I need to attend to anyway. So why don’t we just meet at pier 55? I’ll, um — I’ll send a calendar invitation to your assistant. Oh, dear. You already have something on the books. No. No. No, no. Not at all. It’s just that that poor bartender was stabbed with a hook on pier 55. Oh. Yes. Of course. Well, don’t you fear. I’ll have one of my associates meet you at the pier. He can keep you safe till it’s time to board. So…do we have a date? I — I mean, a deal? Deal.

[ Chuckles ] Wait. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, there, missy. What the hell are you doing with victor? None of your beeswax. Look. You help ava. She needs it. I don’T.

[ Grunts ] The lady said yes. As I knew she would. Now it’s your turn. You know what to do. I haven’t seen my daughter in months. I got to go. Okay. I’ll come with you. No, listen, because if you get to see charlotte, then you will be focused on her, and you will need someone to watch your back. And if it’s an ambush, you will need someone to watch your back. No. Whether or not my father would eliminate me, he would definitely eliminate you. No. You’re staying here. I’m gonna go see charlotte. On victor’s terms?! What if we were talking about robin? Alright. I hate leaving you. I was hoping for another chance to wake up in that bed of yours. So it’s the bed you like. It’s an amazing bed. Hm. It’s soft. So soft. Really expensive. Hey. One more thing. I love you. If you don’t come back… I’ll never forgive you. If I don’t come back… I’ll never forgive me, either.

[ Door closes ] Hi. It’s me. Uh… yeah. There’s a lot of stuff happening. I’ll fill you in. But valentin’s in trouble. He needs your help.

[ Keypad beeps ] Oh. Uh, housekeeping must have skipped my room today. Living full-time in a hotel, huh? Remind me next time to go to med school. Oh, the new co-owner is a friend. She gave me a special rate. Uh-huh. But you have it pretty cushy, too. The quartermaine stables are a lot posher than some hotels.

[ Chuckles ] Well, that’s true, but a guy can dream, can’t he? What is your dream, cody bell? My dream? Freedom. You know, free to do what I want when I want… where I want… with the person that I want. Well, freedom may be the most expensive thing there is. So far, I haven’t even managed to save up a deposit.

[ Chuckles ] If that’s the case, then shouldn’t you be giving riding lessons to some rich divorcée or sucking up to the quartermaines instead of helping me sort through my brother’s stuff here? Well, you never know what you’ll find. When you least expect it.


uh, we’d better get to business before… before…? Before I have to go to G.H. And you have to go back to whispering to horses. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Okay. Here it is. Everything peter left me. Alright. Well… aren’t you gonna open it? I mean, that’s why I’m here, right? Maybe maxie was right. I should just throw it down the garbage chute and be done with it. W-well, I mean, think about what you were telling me earlier. You know, if you — if you don’t look inside the box, you’ll never get rid of the what-ifs. You’ll never fully be able to move on past your brother. That’s what you really want, right? Here goes. Alright.

[ Cellphone ringing ] Hm.

[ Beep ] Anna: Lucy, it’s anna. You listen to me. I am giving you fair warning. You either reconsider your options and you do as I say, or there will be serious consequences.

[ Exhales deeply ] Oh, lucy coe. You still got it. Now let’s put it to work. Hey, jesse, reload. So, did you have better luck with lucy than you had with me? I — I-I just don’t get it. Smart, sensible women. What do they see in the cassadines? I-I don’t get it. I don’t see their appeal. Well, suppose you ask the lovely dr. Obrecht. I believe she could fill you in. Eh, she’s already gotten rid of you. And lucy will, too. Ava, if you’re smart, you will cut your losses with nikolas while you can. You know, for once, I actually agree with baldwin on something. Look, I-I’m sorry you and nikolas couldn’t work things out, but… well, anyway, let’s just hope that the process moves as swiftly and painlessly as possible. I’ll even make sure it’s worth your while. What are you talking about? What — what process? Well, the divorce, of course. There’s a secondary benefit to keeping you locked away in this room until you give birth. Maybe not for you, but for the people in port charles. And what is that? We’ll be able to see if the serial killer who uses a hook continues to attack people. And if another attack does happen, that will prove that you are not the killer. How many times do I have to say it? It is not me! Tell that to oz haggerty — the witness that could clear trina’s name but was inconveniently drugged before he could testify. Oh, wait. You can’t question him because he was stabbed to death with a hook! Not by me! Only time will tell. And what happens after the baby is born? And you realize that I am not the woman who has been going around stabbing people? What then? Are you gonna put our baby up for adoption? Or, worse, try and convince ava to help you raise it? I’m not sure a cassadine could pull a rabbit out of that hat! Well, that’s really of no concern of yours. Just do as I say and take care of that new life inside of you. You can’t get rid of me that easily! You want to bet? No one is gonna miss you. Well, that’s where you’re wrong. My father knows I’m alive.


After all these months, you’ve never once mentioned ‘s someonewho loves and adores me. Didn’t see that one coming, did you? Not only does someone know that I’m still alive, but it’s someone who loves and adores me. My father. Your narrative of “poor little esme’s all alone in the world” just isn’t true. You’re lying. After all these months, you’ve never once mentioned having a father. Doesn’t mean it’s not true. And daddy would not be very happy with the way you’ve been treating me. You said both of your parents were dead. You were adopted as an infant and your adoptive parents were dead, too. You were raised by your nanny until you were sent to boarding school. And that’s where you met spencer. Oh, feel free to check with the boarding school. My teachers always said I had a very vivid imagination. So do I play fast and loose with the facts when it benefits me? Of course I do. And the truth is, yes, both my adoptive parents are dead. May they rest in peace. However… my biological father is very much alive. And where is he? And who is he? And why would I believe anything you say? You just admitted that you bend the truth to serve your needs. All of this time you were involved with my son, you never talked about your father. Clearly, you’re bluffing. My father’s a very powerful man. And if you don’t let me out of here, you’re gonna find that out. And trust me when I say you will not like how this story ends for you. Well, that’s the thing, esme. You’ve told so many lies that even if you were telling the truth right now, it is impossible for me to believe you. Hmm. Believe what you want. But when that day comes, your fate won’t be pretty. Don’t say I never warned you. Alright. That is enough, esme. You’ll do as I say. You’ll do what’s best for that baby. And once you’ve done the one and only decent thing that you have ever done in your entire miserable life and given birth, your future will be up to one person — me. And I’ll decide whether to toss you off the parapet again or throw you to the wolves. And we’ll see if your imaginary father comes to the rescue or not.

[ Door opens ] Let me go, nikolas! I’m the mother of your child!

[ Lock clicks ] I deserve to be treated with respect!

[ Grunts ]

[ Crying ] It’s so unfair. I’m a prisoner surrounded by ava’s tacky taste in art! Hi. Yes. Um, it’s imperative that I get a message to lucy coe. Okay. Could you check her appointments and see where she’s gone? Thank you. A sunset cruise. Does it say who she’s gone with? Business dinner. Victor cassadine. Okay. Thank you. Where? Pier 47. Are you absolutely certain about that? Okay. Thank you. You’ve been very helpful. Thank you. Once again, victor, you’re jumping to conclusions. Yes, I’m having drinks with scott baldwin. Yes, he is my lawyer. He also happens to be my friend. And we are not discussing any possible divorce. W-wait. Y-you mean you really don’t know? Why don’t you stop talking in riddles? What don’t I know? I just assumed nikolas would have told you of his decision. Irreconcilable differences? Well, this whole town knows that nikolas and i have had a tempestuous relationship. It’s always been like that. We’ve even discussed divorce in the past, but neither one of us has ever wanted to pull the trigger. Unless nikolas has told you something h-he hasn’t told me. Oh, ava. I’m sorry. Forgive me. Look, everyone knows my nephew changes his mind on a daily basis. I-I just assumed that… well, a-a strong, independent woman like yourself wouldn’t just sit back and wait for him to make the first move. But, well, maybe I’m mistaken. Ava. Ava. Ava! Oops. Something I said?

[ Grunts ] Damn it. Where are you?

[ Chuckles ] Must be upstairs. Britt: Okay. This all seems so random. An old atm receipt. Why would peter keep that? And what’s it supposed to mean to me? Well, I mean, if there’s money still in the account, it would go to you, right? I suppose. Money clip with cash. I know what that is. Why would he keep a stub from what looks like a parking garage? Maybe he’s got a car parked somewhere? Even if I were to track it down, peter’s been gone since last winter. It’s probably long gone. Ugh. I mean, peter did bad things on a big scale. T-the contents of this box are just so run-of-the-mill. Alright. Well, I mean, what about, you know, these? Yeah, I remember seeing these with maxie. I’m sure they open doors peter was never supposed to enter. One more thing I have to get rid of. Well, I don’t know what these other keys unlock, but this little one here, I know what kind of key it is and I know what it opens. What exactly? Safe deposit box.


I wonder what peter kept in his safe deposit box. More unfinished, worthless business? Or it could be something valuable. Like stocks or bonds. Maybe more cash. Or it could be filled with rubies and diamonds for all we know. Look. Hey, hey. No one says that you actually have to track down the safe deposit box. Some things are better left unopened. Really? Just walk away? Well… that doesn’t sound like you. You said it yourself. Your brother did bad things in a big way. Why mess with what he left behind?

[ Chuckles ] Don’t be so serious, cody. We’ll probably do a lot of work to find it only to open it up and a rubber snake pops out! My brother was warped like that. Well, then why push your luck? Because there’s only one way to find out. We have to find the safe deposit box and open it. You’re right. There’s only one way to find out. That should do just fine. Ava. What are you doing here? I thought you were done keeping secrets from me. Anna. It’s me. Shoot. Uh, I’m on my father’s plane. We’ll be in the air in a second. I…miss you. So wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, just know I’m with you in spirit. Always.

[ Exhales slowly ] Hm. Okay, victor, I’m here. Let’s get this cruise started. Listen, victor, I don’t know what game you’re playing, but I am gonna protect ava’s interests. So why don’t you go home and hold your nephew’s hand until this is over? Do ya follow me?! Ah. To be continued, mr. Baldwin. Now, if you’ll excuse me. Are we good? I took care of everything at her house. And anna herself? Our people tailed her from her home. She’s on her way to pier 47. Excellent. She’ll be far from where lucy is and exactly where I want her. Calendar invite says pier 47, not 55?! Are you absolutely sure?

[ Groans ] Okay. Fine. No, I got — I got to go. Damn.

[ Clatter ] Victor, we obviously got our — what are you doing here? Oh, no, no, no, no,no, no, no, no. Please. No. No. Ohh!

[ Gunshot ]
