THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I love that picture. Hey. Hey. Did you forget that we were supposed to meet the reporter at virginia’s grave in 45 minutes? My mom’s grave is less than 10 minutes from here.

[ Exhales deeply ] I’m guessing this is where you went to high school. Yeah. And I had no intention of ever coming back. But we were, um… we were driving by, and I just needed to see this. I needed to see the spot where my, uh… …where my life changed in an instant.

[ Lock beeps ] Hello, ryan. Are you surprised to see me? Now, I know kevin pops in from time to time to monitor your condition, but… I just had to see for myself. And everyone assures me that you are still incapable of movement, but knowing how deceitful you are, you know, I never really bought it. I still think you could be faking it. Nikolas, thank you for meeting me. Let’s not pretend I had a choice. Why have you summoned me? You need to divorce ava immediately. Valentin: Working hard overat aurora, huh? Stock’s up.

[ Sighing ] Yeah. Yeah, it’s no secret that we took a hit when you blocked the merger, but we’re moving in the right direction. In no small part thanks to you, right? Well, uh, drew is doing a great job. He founded it. He knows what he’s doing, so… the reason I wanted to meet with you — I think your talents could be better utilized elsewhere. I want you to consider leaving aurora and coming back to elq full-time. What’s the matter? Cat got your tongue? Who are you? Uh, I’m josslyn jacks. I’m sonny’s stepdaughter. I know most of his guys. Are you new? I’m the new chef. Just getting my tools of the trade in peak condition. Huh. All right. Well, I left my jacket here, um, so I’m just gonna go grab it. No, you won’T.

O say, can you see

by the dawn’s early light

what so proudly…we… hailed yeah. They’re taking, uh, diane off the ventilator. I’ll — I’ll call you with an update when I get it. All right. Dr. Ashford? Ms. Miller’s breathing on her own. She’s conscious, although she’s still pretty groggy. Can I see her? Mr. Corinthos is gonna have to wait. Assuming she’s up to it, I got a few questions. District attorney. To what do I owe the pleasure? I’ve got a good mind to book you on malicious intent.

[ Chuckles ] You scared the life out of us.

[ Groans ] It was a hook, wasn’t it? Just like ava and brando. Unfortunately. But you’re a tough cookie. Here you are. Now, I know you just woke up, but, um, tell me what you remember.

I used to be a cheerleader. Did I ever tell you that? No, I don’t believe so. Yep. Reese and I made the varsity cheerleading squad our freshman year. It was quite an accomplishment. Reese — that’s peyton’s daughter? Yeah. Yeah. We were best, best friends. Hmm. So close. Like josslyn and trina close.

[ Chuckles ] Reese had it going on. Country club girl. Pretty, popular. Probably why we made the squad. Although I was a better athlete and a much better cheerleader, if I do say so myself. I have no doubt. Reese gave me access to a life I wouldn’t have been able to touch. And I was so grateful for that. I mean, we loved each other like besties. And by junior year, we ran that squad. Until that afternoon.

[ Sighs ] Reese had been ignoring me all day. And it was after practice, and reese, jody, lisa, and I, we were headed to reese’s car, and I realized I forgot my sweater. So I went back to grab it and… …on my way back to the car… …the girls were already in the convertible, and I could tell that reese was talking about me ’cause they were all laughing and whispering. And just like that, reese looked at me, started the car, and she pulled away. It was deliberate. You know, she wanted me to know that she was leaving me on purpose. And I yelled, “I hope you crash and burn.” 10 seconds later, reese pulled onto the parkway right in front of a semi. I saw the whole thing happen. Reese’s convertible disintegrated into a twisted pile of metal. Two girls dead, one in a coma. And I stood in this spot without a scratch on me. I’m not divorcing ava. Oh, come on, nikolas. You and ava have been on the brink of divorce at least three times, to my knowledge. It’s time you just got on with it. Aside from the fact that I love my wife, we’re remaining married to protect ava. Ah, yeah, you’re referring to spousal privilege. No, well, it’s true that, as ava’s husband, you can’t be compelled to testify that you saw ava and esme struggling just moments before esme plunged to her death. Keep your voice down. Why are you bringing that up? Oh, I can assure you we’re quite alone. And we’re quite done. This conversation’s over. Ava and I are remaining married. Nikolas, you seem to be under the misapprehension that you have a choice in the matter. You don’T. Let’s see how in control you really are. That’s convincing enough. Whoo! I may have overdone it there. Oh, that’s right. You don’t know about my — my injury, do you? Some maniac attacked me with a hook. Now, you know all about that, don’t you? You used to hook on at least one of your victims. And so, I have to wonder, would you use one on me, too, if you could get out of that chair? I was at brando’s garage because I’d gone there to see sasha.

[ Exhales sharply ] Um… I’d been asked to file a continuance regarding her guardianship. And? Go on. But sasha didn’t know where the papers were, where brando’s copy of the decree was. You’re doing great. Well, what happened then? Robert’s in there questioning diane. She’s not up for it. I mean, she’s still recovering. Right. She was stable when I left. I think she can handle it. Yeah. Diane’s tough. Yeah, doctor, she’s tough, she’s tough in the courtroom. She’s like a barracuda. But she didn’t have a defense against whoever attacked her with that hook, right? Look, diane — she survived. And if she can id the attacker, then we can finally get ahead of this psycho. Take your best shot. Go through all the channels. But I’m telling you right now, I’m gonna do what I have to do to make sure that diane gets justice. I admit, I did not see that one coming. Why would you want to bring me back on board after everything you’ve done to hold on to elq? I mean, you tore my family apart. You damn sure don’t trust me. No, no, I-I trust you. You and drew almost got the better of me. Fair and square. It was a strong countermove, and it would have worked. But I had ned. Right. So why risk alienating him by bringing me back to elq? I know, ultimately, you’ll put the good of elq first. Yeah, well, good luck explaining that to ned. I expect there to be pushback, and I’ll handle that. Michael, you have expertise that ned lacks. Right. Well, that’s always been the case. So what changed? What, is the — is the company in trouble? No, no, no. It’s stronger than ever. I have certain operations I’m undertaking that are at a critical juncture, and I don’t want elq to suffer. You know, you could always step aside as ceo. I’m not interested in giving up ceo. But, michael, if you come back to elq, I promise you we will both have the time and the resources to devote to our outside projects. What part of “my stepfather is your boss” is unclear? Mr. Corinthos isn’t here, and I can’t let you have free reign in this restaurant or my workspace. So, today, your access is denied. As for mr. Corinthos’ office, you’ll need his permission to go in there. You know, sonny won’t be happy to hear that you gave me a hard time.

[ Scoffs ] You think this is a hard time? What I think is you’ll regret being so rude to me. I’ll tell mr. Corinthos you stopped by.

I was attacked on the quartermaine grounds at a picnic they were having to benefit G.H.’S pediatric wing. Josslyn jacks, she found me. She made sure I got to the hospital. Unfortunately, sonny’s cousin, brando, he was attacked a few days later, and tragically, he did not make it. And then it was diane, sonny’s lawyer, who was the most recent victim. So if it isn’t you or some kind of copycat, maybe it’s sonny that’s the common denominator.

[ Thinking ] Outrageous.

Unacceptable.

If anyone is gonna gut

you with a hook, my love,

it’ll be me. Nikolas: Don’t delude yourself. Uncle victor, I’m the one in possession of the family fortune. And you have no power over me. You do not want to put that to the test, my boy. 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. No one “handles” ava. Yes, well, particularly not you. You are way out of your league, my boy, with your callow tricks and childish games, provoking ava into fights so that you can declare your love and win her back again. Look, marriages, they hit rough patches. We’ve hit one. But we will get past it. Your marriage hasn’t hit a rough patch. You jumped into bed with esme. Come on, open your eyes, man. Ava came out of hospital and then declined to move back into wyndemere. But she will. No, she will move home and she’ll believe in me again because I found a way to prove my love for her. It’s no secr et there’s frictionbetween you and your father. But unlike drew, I’m not interested in making peace. Just that you perform effectively at elq. I have no doubt that you will. Whatever your outside projects, they’re your own business. Uh, michael, I need to speak with you right now. Hey, uh, take my seat. I got somewhere I got to be anyway. Michael, think about it. Uh, what’s going on? I think I know why no one’s seen dex. I think sonny has dex in his restaurant. You need to help me get in there before he kills him.

O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave o’er the land of the free and…

[ Door opens ] Don’t let me interrupt. Keep singing if you like. I just want to have things ready for when sonny gets back. Don’t waste your time unpacking. You’re not gonna get to use any of that on me. ‘Cause I’m innocent. Sonny seems unconvinced. I have another patient to see, but I’ll be back to check on diane. What? I know it seems like you’re the common denominator with all these victims, and I know everything inside you is wanting to go after this attacker and make them pay. That’s right. Don’t do it.

[ Scoffs ] Diane: It’s really just a jumble. I-I don’t even know when sonny and sasha left. But they had to have left, right, because I was alone when I was attacked. What’s the last thing you remember? Talking to sonny. And then, after that, I’m just trying to get the sequence of events right. Maybe if I could talk to sonny again. He’s outside. I’ll get him.

you can’t cause an accident by wishing someone would crash or by screaming the words out loud. I know that. But I contributed to reese’s state of mind when she pulled out onto that parkway in front of that truck. Reese and I had been best friends since we were 12 years old. She would have never… left me behind. Never. She would have never turned against me. That was before she found out I slept with her father. Victor: More games? All right. Enlighten me. How do you plan on proving your love for ava this time? It’s private. It’s between husband and wife. But all you need to know is that I’ve proven to ava that she can trust me. Oh, I’m afraid I’m gonna need to know more than that. I’m afraid you’ll have to learn to live with unanswered questions. Now, if you’ll excuse me.

[ Chuckling ] Oh. Surely you don’t expect me to answer to valentin. Both of you can go to hell. Well, I had anticipated that you would be less than cooperative, so I reached out to my son for assistance. Were you successful, valentin? See for yourself. About time you woke up. Good to see you. Thank you, boss. From what I understand, it was touch and go. How you feeling? I’m blissfully numb at the moment. My mind’s a little foggy, but it’s starting to clear. I’m just trying to piece together what led up to the attack. That’s good. Yeah, whatever you can remember. Did sasha give me permission to go through brando’s papers? Yeah. You went into his office. Sorry, we can’t have you influencing diane’s memories. We need your recollections unprompted. Okay? And I just thought hearsay applied to the courtroom. Well, I’m not too concerned about admissibility at this point. I just want to get this psycho. But dante’s right. Sonny can corroborate, but the memory’s got to be yours. Right. Okay, well, I remember being in brando’s office. I found the guardianship papers. Mm-hmm. But the li– the light — it was so dark in there that I came back into the garage to be able to read it. Was anyone in the garage?

[ Cellphone ringing ] The next thing I remember was seeing dex. Mr. Corinthos, I’m ready to get the truth out of that punk. Let me know if I can proceed without you. You again. Mr. Corinthos isn’t here. If you don’t get that, maybe your friend here will. All right, you need to consider your next move carefully. How you choose to handle the situation will have direct implications for your future as well as sonny’S. If you blow it, well, sonny won’t be so forgiving.

I know I was a minor and that reese’s father took advantage of me. You know, the adult carly knows that. Right? But reese was just blindsided, and she was devastated when she found out. Reese’s father, he — he’s dead, right? Yes. He… killed himself not long after the accident. Carly… what he did was reprehensible. Look, one day, scout is gonna be 16 years old, and if one of her friends’ fathers seduced her into an inappropriate relationship, I would annihilate him before the case even reached trial. And I know you would do the same thing if joss or — or avery or donna was ever in the same situation. I would kill the bastard. Would you blame them, or — or would you think that they brought it on themselves? Of course not. I would never. Then why are you still blaming yourself? Ava: Gee, ryan, it must be hell sitting here alone all day, every day. No mental stimulation of any kind. Just sittin’ here, waiting for somebody, anybody. You know, I wonder if you’re still waiting for your precious esme.

[ Gasps ] Bingo. “I, nikolas cassadine, of sound mind and body, do hereby acknowledge and confess that I, and I alone, am responsible for the disappearance of esme prince. I know this because I killed her.” Easy. How did you get that? Trade secret. A more pertinent question is why the hell does a letter like this exist in the first place? What do you want? Dex. Where is he? No idea. I’m the chef. I have nothing to do with other employees. Mm-hmm. Okay, right. Okay, this is — this is what’s gonna happen. My — my sister josslyn is going to look around, and if she sees that dex is being held anywhere in this restaurant, she’s going to bring him out and we’re gonna leave. And if you interfere in any way, I will call my brother, detective falconeri of the pcpd, and we will have the cops search the premises. And if they find that dex is being held here prisoner, well, then, you’ll be arrested, as well as your boss. See, sonny, though, he’ll claim that you acted on your own without his knowledge. And if you think that you can cut a deal and give him up, ll, we both know how he’ll retaliate. So your best option — well, your only option — is to not let the police get involved in the first place. So what’s it gonna be? Dex. You saw him in the garage with sonny and sasha and yourself before the attack? Yes. Who is he? Well, he works for sonny. He was there at first, and then he wasn’t there. And I assume sonny sent him on an errand. Okay, so you found the guardianship papers. You took ’em to the garage to read with the better light. Mm-hmm. Is that when you saw dex? No. No, wait. No, he wasn’t there then. He wasn’t there — he was there before the attack, but then when I — I came to for a second. That’s when I saw him. Now, let’s get the sequence right here. You came out of the office with the papers. Uh-huh. Who was there? No one. No, the garage was empty. Sonny and sasha had gone, and I started reading.

[ Exhales sharply ] And that’s when I — that’s when I saw just a glimpse of motion out of the corner of my eye. And I — and I turned around, and that’s when I saw her. She ca– she came at me with a hook. Okay, t-take it easy. Y– what did — you just said, “she”? Diane, you saw your attacker? She came right at me. She? Yeah! Yeah, the attacker was a woman.

My country ’tis of thee

sweet land of liberty

[ Door opens ] Dex. What did sonny do to you? Nothing yet, but we — we have to get out of here. His guy, carver, he’s — he’s a dangerous freak. Yeah. Yeah, he gave me the creeps, too. Wait. Joss, he knows you’re here? No, you have to go now. Go! No, no, no, no. My brother’s dealing with him. It’s okay. We need to get you untied. Use — use the knives. It’ll be faster. Did he use these on you? No. No, and now he never will. Okay. Okay, okay. Hurry, cut the ropes, and let’s get out of here.

Diane, can can you describe your attacker? A woman with a hook. I-I mean other details like, um, age, height, build, hair color, that kind of thing. Well, she was about my height. Um, I — I couldn’t tell her build because she was wearing a bulky coat with a hood. Or maybe it was a cloak. I couldn’t tell for sure. And I — I couldn’t see her hair. Okay, that’s — that’s good. Just take a minute. Diane, you’re doing great. But can you remember any more details?

[ Sighs ] Sounds. Do you remember hearing anything? Yes. Yeah. She was wearing bracelets. And they — they jangled when she raised up that hook. Bracelets, not dog tags. Why can I remember her bracelets, but I can’t remember her face? This is far too many visitors. I have to ask you to leave now. Okay. Um, you’ve given us a lot to go on. Thanks, bud. Take it easy. Okay? Ow! I’m gonna be back to check in with you, okay? Ow. Okay. Hey, robert. If I remember any other details, I’ll call you. Or I’ll — I’ll have my people call you.

[ Chuckles ] Diane, the most important thing is that you focus that considerable energy of yours on recovery. Um, you’re doing great. That’s the most important — the most important thing to remember.

[ Chuckles ] You know, it’s never too soon to quit. If you’re not here, I’ll have less to say to my brother the cop, and you won’t have to answer to him or sonny.

[ Door slams ] Hey. Is he all right? Sonny had him in the freezer. He was tied by his wrists, hanging from a meat hook. All right, let’s go. You leave when mr. Corinthos says you can leave.

[ Scoffs ] When mr. Roberts… started paying attention to me, I was flattered. I could tell he liked me. And I liked it. I even started flirting with him in my own way. And I knew it was wrong, but I… I just felt like I was doing something new. You know? And I — I should have stopped going to the roberts’ house. Hell, I-I should have transferred out of the school, but I… I didn’t want to lose reese. I didn’t want to stop being the popular girl on the cheerleading squad. I didn’t want to stop going to the country club pretending I was a member. You know, reese gave me access to a life that I didn’t want to give up, and that’s on me. Carly… carly, you were a child. He was a predator. Reese… reese found us in bed together. And the next day, she wouldn’t talk to me and she wouldn’t even look at me. And I thought — well, I hoped that we could talk after we dropped the other girls off, but… reese had already turned against me. Something had broken in her. She shouldn’t have been driving. She was too upset. She shouldn’t have been on the road. She wasn’t — she shouldn’t have been driving. She shouldn’t been there. Wait, wait, wait. Did — did her mother tell you that? Look, peyton is a vindictive snob. But she’s not wrong. Yes. She’s not wrong. Yes, she is. Esme was determined to intern at spring ridge so she could work with you. She claimed to be fascinated by your case, which of course, makes perfect sense now. I’m sure she saw you at some kind of kindred spirit.

[ Thinking ]

You have no idea. And I know that kevin banned her from having any further contact with you, but that cunning esme, she found a way around that, didn’t she?

Yes.

My clever daughter. In retrospect, I think she was blackmailing nikolas.

Because nikolas

betrayed you.

He was never

worthy of you.

Only I’m worthy

of you, ava. But all good blackmail schemes must come to an end. And esme overstayed her welcome. Now she’s gone. Victor: What on earth could possess you to write out a confession to a murder you didn’t commit? I did it to protect my wife. I would do anything to protect ava. Yea– which is precisely why you have to divorce her. Your obsession with ava is not only detrimental to you, nikolas. It’s jeopardizing the entire family. I don’t give a damn. Clearly you don’t give a damn. You didn’t give a damn when you alienated your son. You didn’t give a damn when you were unfaithful to your wife. And you obviously didn’t give a damn when you wrote out this ridiculous confession. Now, fortunately, valentin intercepted the letter before it could fall into the wrong hands. It belongs in ava’s hands. It was meant for her. Oh, until she hands it over to the police in a fit of pique. Or were you assuming she wouldn’t do that because she’d be frightened of implicating herself? No, she wouldn’t do that because she loves me. Well, be that as it may, it’s too late now to matter.

I find it very hard to believe that peyton wasn’t aware what her husband was up to. That is a — that is a dysfunctional family. I’m betting that peyton was very used to dealing with her husband’s indiscretions because she didn’t want to give up all the wealth and — and the status and — and the social position. She couldn’t afford to confront her husband. It was just way easier for her to blame you. And the only person that really did have an excuse was — was reese because she was a child. And it was — it was too painful and it was too confusing and scary for her to confront her father about what he did. So she made it all your fault, too, carly. But it wasn’t your fault. It wasn’t your fault. Yes, it was a tragedy, one in which the parents acted…badly and the kids paid the price. And I — personally, I get why you want to run away from this whole thing, because you’ve been running your whole life. But now it’s time to stop. Let go of the misguided guilt. Just let it go. Let it all go. It wasn’t your fault. What happened to reese was a terrible accident, and I hate that it happened. But it wasn’t my fault. It wasn’T. I’ve telling myself that all these years, but I never really believed it, and seeing peyton brought it all out. But it’s over, right? It’s over. It’s over. All right, we need the police. Hold on, hold on, joss. Look, this is about to escalate in a way that is not going to end well. It’s best all around if you just let us go. If you’re so confident mr. Corinthos won’t mind his guest leaving, then you can afford to wait till he gets here to give his okay. All right. To hell with this freak, michael. I’m calling the cops. Sonny can get arrested, too. No. No cops. No cops. Why not? He tried to kill you.

[ Door opens ] Michael: Oh, hey, dad. Look what we found in your freezer. You’re doing well. I just want you to try and rest. Well, sorry, doc. Now I can’t stop thinking about my attacker. I’m sure I know this woman from somewhere. I just can’t place her. And I’ve usually got such a good memory for faces. You went through a traumatic experience. Hmm. Now, the brain, the mind will go into protect mode and keep the disturbing events at bay. You might start to remember in bits and in pieces. That’s — that’s what happened to me when I went through something traumatic. But driving yourself crazy trying to remember, it won’t do much good for your recovery. So be patient with yourself. It’ll come back in time. Sorry, doc. That’s not gonna work for me. Now I just want this maniac caught. Dante: Well, this is amazing. I mean, diane just gave us some real valuable information. Yeah. Thanks to her, we now know the killer’s a woman. This could change the whole direction of the investigation. It — it could mean patterns that we haven’t detected yet, a way to tie the victims together aside from sonny. Or it confirms our worst-case scenario, that the killings and the attacks are random after all. Esme just disappeared one afternoon at the height of trina robinson’s trial. Now, I bet that topic never came up in conversation. How she framed an innocent young woman. Well, she was just about to be exposed, too, and she just vanished. And I guess that esme has made a couple of posts from the french riviera. So that’s where the authorities are looking for her.

[ Thinking ] Esme would never abandon me for a place as banal as the french riviera. She’d never abandon me at all. You know, I, for one, am so glad that she’s gone. I found esme to be a really dangerously disturbed young woman. Reckless, too. Oh, she just kept pushing the boundaries, assuming that nobody would ever push back. You know, wyndemere isn’t always a safe place. It can be downright dangerous if you don’t watch your step. And esme, well, she failed to watch hers. Yeah, I seriously doubt that anybody will ever see esme prince again. Ava is a practical woman. I’m sure she’s already beginning to realize her marriage is toxic. It shouldn’t be too hard to convince her that it’s also jeopardizing her future. I’ll even make her a generous divorce settlement offer, which I — I’m sure she’ll be only too happy to accept. Even if ava agrees, I never will. Oh, stop being so tedious, nikolas. Aren’t you overlooking something? Nikolas isn’t really necessary. In fact, if he were to disappear like esme did, spencer inherits the cassadine estate. Oh, you do have a good point. If nikolas is intractable, there is always spencer. And after all, accidents do happen. Threats. You want me to choose my life over ava? Well, it isn’t really a choice, is it? How can you be with ava if you’re dead? Victor… I love her. Love is a luxury. Survival is essential. Just remember that. Fine. I’ll do it. I’ll divorce ava. Splendid. I’ll call my lawyer, have him prepare the paperwork, obtain the necessary signatures. Then, with you divorced and esme dead, I can finally turn my attention to more pressing matters.

On the next “General Hospital” —

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Chloe honey, I’m telling you, you feel much better this morning. Yes.

A decent night sleeps made me realize how lucky I am to, um, to be done with Clyde honey. Yes. I love you too. Yes. Okay. I’ll talk to you soon. Okay.

Oh, thank God. No one can see your mother now. How ridiculous to I look. Let’s just.

You, Laura, Wonderful, wise woman. We miss you

so much.

Thank you darling. For suggesting we stop by here after we left the flowers on Abigail’s last resting place. That’s still so hard to say, isn’t it? The Horton family has had so much loss in such a short time. Two beautiful women still so much to live for. I suppose there is some comfort in knowing that Clive Weston is going to rot in prison for what he did to have a gal,

but I’m guessing I’m going to have to wait until the roll is called up yonder to see Gwen Rez check fee forbidden entry through the pearl gates for what she did. Laura.

Jennifer, what brings you by come to finish me off.

Ooh, you look a bit like a deer caught in headlights. Is that how I looked? Just before you pressed the gas pedal down to the floor?

That’s right. I remember who was behind the wheel of the car, who hit me, person who tore into me and left me there for dead. That was you.

I don’t know where you get your information from. I think you newspaper boys like to call it a primary source. See, Gwenny told me that Jenny was behind the wheel of the car that ran her down. Gwen told me she didn’t see the driver. Well, I just came from her hospital room and while she was telling me this horrific story about what happened to her, her memory of everything that happened last night came rushing back to her and it wasn’t hard to make Gwen realize that Jennifer did this on purpose.

And I bet you gave it a really hard sell. Jennifer needs to make, what’s the word? Oh, I know. Restitution. And that’s going to come in the form of a check from you, that lot of zeros attached. If you wanna make this all go away, that is

like Sands through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

Look great. Please stay away from me. I, I, I didn’t come here to hurt you. I came here to tell you how very, very sorry I am for what I did to you,

okay? You really made this. Yeah, well, I’ve only read about 10,000 corporate announcements in that time. I really appreciate having you as a sounding board. I’ve been so worried about my mom that I’m finding it really hard to concentrate, and if I don’t get a handle on all of this work I have to do, I’m gonna start losing clients.

And the first one that’s going to be me.

Do you own a calendar? If you did, you’d see that the election is one month away. I know that. And do you know that my polling numbers, they’re going down? Yes. But, And that mailer that you promised would get into the hands of the voters by last weekend. Did that happen? I’m sorry. They got held up at the printers.

I was going to follow up, but, but the only butt that I want to hear about is mine and what, how you’re doing what it takes to get me behind that big old desk at the State House. Do I make myself. Crystal,

I, I’m wearing this thing on my head because I’m getting highlights. I’m Bonnie thought that a new would perk me up and Bonnie doesn’t take no for an answer. Well, I’m sure your hairs can look just beautiful. And that’s off flowers. Mm-hmm. , who are they for? Who like STAs and pink roses. I

you. You brought me flowers. Yes. Craig. Why would you bring flowers and what are you even doing here? See, I’m here because I wanting to see how you are.

Having second thoughts about trying to kill me. Oh, Quinn, No, no. It, it wasn’t deliberate. I swear I didn’t even see you, but until it was too late, you didn’t see me. You knew you hit me with your car and you still didn’t stop to help me. I don’t, I, I wish I could tell you. I left. I just don’t, I just, I just can’t, But I didn’t even remember Okay.

Until like an hour ago. And as soon as I remembered, I, I, I knew I had to see you. You’re telling me you have no memory of fleeting someone with your. No, because when I did it, when I hit you, I wasn’t in my right mind. I was, Hi,

is Gwen on board with his blackmail scheme of yours? Blackmail is such a cold, hard word. I like to think of this as a settle. You didn’t answer my question. Did Gwen authorize your being here and acting on her behalf? We had begun to discuss that possibility and we were interrupted by one of the many people providing her with very expensive medical care.

She doesn’t know you’re here. I took it upon myself to see gay resolution that benefits all parties involved. I find it very hard to believe that Gwen would prove this when she and I talked last night. Well, that was probably before your wife tried to turn her into a hood ornament. That is not what happened.

It was a hideous act with malicious intent. It was an accident,

but darling remember, That Gwen told us Laura’s death was an accident. Gwen is a liar. Darling, when I think of what Jennifer is going through, when I think of what, what the hell her mother could have been to her, I just swear I could throw things.

Laura meant so much to those people who loved her through her words were never spoken.

So, um, how did you even know that I was here? Bonnie called me. and she told me you were here. I’m glad she did. I’m, I’m relieved. And then she also asked me drop by. So that’s why you’re here, Nancy. I am here because Bonnie thought you needed another friend to talk to besides her.

I still am your friend, aren’t I?

Honestly, I’m not sure.

I want you to get those mailers out by today and I want you to set up a press conference, the kind that makes me national news. And if this doesn’t happen by the end of business today, then I’m going to have to, Okay. Stephanie’s not gonna say anything, so I will. Her mother’s in the hospital right now, so maybe you could cut her a break.

Oh. I’m very sorry to to hear that, but Oh, if you, you can’t do the job, Stephanie, then why are you not delegating someone else in your firm? And you could have at least informed me that you are dealing with a family emergency. Mr. Price, if you could just look, if you will just kindly stay out of this young man.

This is between me and Ms. Johnson, Chad. It’s okay. Really, you’re absolutely right. Ms. Price. I should have delegated and I should have told you about my. I’m sorry I dropped the ball on those mailers. I will have those out today and then I will start working on the press conference. That’s just what I wanted to hear.

And look, um, I’m sorry for laying into you like that.

I’m truly, I’m, I’m truly sorry to hear that your mom’s in the hospital. I’m praying four. I appreciate that. I will call you later to let you know when those mailers have. Thank you. Thank you. The, oh, you know, speaking of delegating, why don’t you let your assistant here pick up some slack. He’s not my assistant.

This is my friend Chad Damara. Chad Damara. Oh, good Lord. I came with a head of steam and didn’t take the time to find out who you were. Uh, Mr. Damara, uh, you, you have my sympathies. You know about what happened, Their poor wife. Such a terrible tragedy.

My wife and I buried our daughter a few weeks ago. We’re doing our best to help take care of her two young children. I know you’ve been through a lot and I’m sure you’re worried sick about Gwen, which is why it would be awful for you to lose your wife. What the hell is that supposed to be? Well, you called what happened to Gwen in accident by which you’re admitting your wife’s liability.

Did she confess? No. I was speaking hypothetically. If Jennifer had done something like that to another person, it would not have been intentional. The point is that it happened and now you know about it. What’s your cut of this settlement that you’re pushing?

You. You know, you’re not the only one who’s had a rough couple of months. I was wrongfully accused of killing poor Abigail. I had to hire a lawyer who’s now threatening to take me to court. Why don’t we just keep it easy? You can write a check for say a million books. I can’t do that. Oh dear. And I guess I’ll have to alert the police folks at the intruder and tell them about Jennifer.

Accident. What I mean is I don’t have a million dollars in my personal checking account. I’ll have to go to the bank for that after a transfer’s been made. I’ll arrange to meet you somewhere. I’ll wait right here to complete our transaction.

You’re doing the right thing, Jack, for your wife, for your family.

Michael Forten. Oh, you’re a sight for fries. We have missed you so much, Michael. Oh, I missed you too, so much. Nah, now I know. I’ll see you later at the house, but I. To come here and pay my respects to Mom and Abigail and, uh, so we’re all doing here, I assume. Of course, of course. Does your sister know you’re here or is this a surprise?

No, no surprise. In fact, I’m here because she needs me. Jennifer asked for my help.

Those pills I caught you.

You got high and then you got in your car. Why? I don’t know. I wasn’t in my right mind. I was, I was hallucinating that Abigail was in the car with me. I, it, it was an accident, I swear. And I am. So, so sorry. You didn’t come here to say you’re sorry you came here to save your ass. No, no. Yes. You say that you sped up, you know that you hit me, but it doesn’t matter though.

Right? So you didn’t know it was me. I didn’t know I, I hit the gas pedal. I thought I hit the brake, you know. The last conversation we had before the, um, accident, as you like to call it, wasn’t a very friendly one, was it? If I recall, you told me that if I went to Jack and told him that you were using that, I would be very sorry.

That sounded like a threat to me. But, but, but when I hit you, I, I didn’t know that you told Jack, but, but, but now that he knows, and, and I’m no longer in denial. I’m, I am. I’m glad that you told him because I need help and now I’m going, I’m gonna get it. Yeah. I know, I’ve heard this all before from my dear old mom.

I was stoned, so you have to forgive me. But now I’ve, I’ve seen the light and I’m gonna stop this. I’m gonna quit. I’m gonna come clean. You’ll see, blah, blah, blah, blah. You know what I’ve learned about addicts, though They are very, very, very cunning. And they lie.

You’re right, you’re right. I’m, I’m, I’ve said those same things to the people that I love.

I mean, there’s no reason in the world that you should believe. A word I say,

You, you, you did the right thing telling Jack about me. Now I’m gonna do the right thing too. What was that? I’ve just decided I’m going to the police station and I’m gonna turn myself in.

Jennifer called me, told me she started abusing painkillers again. She said, You knew about it. We do now. We didn’t for quite a while. I decided a phone conversation wasn’t enough. She’s my kid’s sister. Her life’s a mess. So here I am, Jen asked me to arrange to get her into rehab. Well bless you for that.

Oh, I am so relieved that she’ll be getting help. She also told me how much your love and support meant to her. Oh man. You’d know, you know we’d do anything for you. And Jennifer Rose Laura’s two wonderful kids. She was always so proud of you both as are we. Well, gentlemen, why don’t we all go home and I’ll fix this A nice lunch.

Okay. Actually, I’ll meet you. It’s, uh, it’s been a while since, since I spent some time with mom.

Look, I have to go to the police now, or I might lose my nerve. I’m, I’m so terribly, terribly sorry for everything.

What about your addiction? Don’t you want to get clean? I’m sure they have programs in prison. Yeah, I’ve been to prison. You wouldn’t last a week there. I’m stronger than you think. Don’t turn yourself in.

Isn’t that what you want? I thought it.

But I look at you now, I, I can see how much you’ve suffered. You’ve done your penance. Your mother died suddenly, and your daughter was brutally murdered. It’s no wonder why you turned to something to stop the pain. Because I did that. I almost killed you. If he didn’t, I’m here now. What are you saying,

Jennifer?

I mean, that’s just as much a surprise to me as I’m sure it is to.

I wish someone would’ve told my mom they cared about her. Someone like Jack. It was just she and I when we were growing up and I was so needy. I wasn’t up for the job. Well, I’m up front now.

Don’t go to the police. I’m, I’m gonna tell them that I have no idea who hit me.

Jennifer and Jack are old friends of AVEs. We had ’em over for dinner. I could see how much they’re suffering. I can only imagine what it’s been like for you and your children. Oh, thank goodness. The police finally got the best. Who. That’s a relief. I couldn’t believe that our current governor turned that gang of violent criminals loose.

You have my word. That won’t happen on my watch.

I just had an idea. Uh, maybe you could convince Chad to join my election committee. He’s run a major corporation. His experience could be a big. If we need extra help for the big push to the election, I will hire enough staff to get the job done. Well, okay, your call, well, I’ll leave you two to your business and you tell your mama get well soon so she can get to the poll and place and vote for price.

welcome to my world.

Why would you cover for me?

Well, I have two reasons. First one is my mom,

I want to see you do what she never managed to do.

And the other reason,

Well, after everything that I’ve done to your family, you still allowed me to be part of Jack’s life. I know you didn’t do that for me. You did that because you love him and you want him to be happy. I feel the same way about him and I can see that his heart is. Completely broken after he lost Abigail.

I can’t take you away from him too. He would absolutely destroy him. I won’t let that happen. You won’t love what happened,

darling. You go on up. I’ll fix you a cup of tea and some of grams donuts.

Jennifer are, are the kids in here?

You? Yep. Me. You take your feet off that table and turn off that television set. Yummy donuts.

Well, and see, I am, I’m sorry that you don’t think we can still be friends.

Uh, let me stop. No, wait,

I’m, I’m sorry. What I meant was, Craig, I don’t think a good friend would’ve rated her fiance a around and waved her engagement ring under the nose of a friend who had just had his heart broken. I know why you did that. Nancy, I hurt you. I, I lied to you. I cheated on you as Leo and I made you feel like nobody wanted you, and well, you wanted me to know that somebody did

like, said that he did love me. He said that I was good for him. The only problem was I wasn’t good enough to keep him from doing all the terrible things that he did it. Nancy , I know from experience you can’t love a man and change his nature no matter how much I know that now too. Anyway, um, Thank you for coming by to check on me and see how I am.

And thank you for the flowers.

You were one of the first people who came by and held my hand when Leo broke my heart. I, I just wanted to return the favor.

I, I just had the craziest thought.

Yeah. See that can read your mind. You’re thinking, what if we get back together? What if we did?

I, um, I know that it wouldn’t be a romantic relationship, but there’s more about being together than just sex, right? We know each other better than anybody else. We’ve seen each other at our best and our worst. You will. Never be anything but beautiful and Nancy. We care for each other and we know how to take care of each other.

When, um, it would be so much safer than being with somebody new

and we wouldn’t have to risk putting our hearts back out there and having them broken again. It just wouldn’t be the. A romantic ending that we’ve both dreamed about now,

but it would be pretty damn nice.

Hey, what are you doing in this house? I smelled donuts when I couldn’t resist. I made these donuts for my husband. And Zippy. The clown wants his shows back. Are you saying I have big feet? Are you commenting on my choice of footwear? You still haven’t told me what you’re doing in the house. It’s cool. Jack knows I’m here.

Oh fine. It’s not cool with me. I know who you are. I know who you are too. You Abigail’s second grandmother Once. Oh wait. Or are you her second cousin twice removed the family trees in this town? Get a little inbred. But if you know who I am, it’s probably because you saw me on the news. And then you also know that I didn’t kill Abigail.

No, no. You’re just the guy that broke into her bedroom and cried. Open her jewelry case to get what was inside and left behind the knife that killed our, Okay. Well what? Enough about me. Let’s talk about what Jennifer did.

Leo came to see you. He didn’t tell me he was going to do that.

He said You’d remembered the accident and he’s demanding a million dollars in exchange for your silence. He didn’t. He did. So you know what I did? Yeah. Leo made sure. I blacked out last night. I wasn’t trying to keep it from you. I blacked out and I, I just remembered it this morning and, and, and once I did, I came straight here.

I believe Jennifer, it was an accident. I’m gonna tell the police that I, I don’t remember what happened to me. Then Leo will go to the police and tell them his version. Like he wasn’t there and without me. He’s got nothing. Don’t you give him a penny?

Why are you doing this?

Because she’s your daughter and she loves you.

I have your word. Those mailers will be at campaign headquarters in an hour. Okay, good. I will let the staff know to expect. Now I just have to set up a press conference that will put Paulina on the map. You should take a break and call the hospital. See if there’s any news on your mom. I will do that, but I have to get Paulina calmed down first.

She’s unbelievable, huh? She’s a force of nature, but I do like her. I’m sorry if I shot my mouth off when she was here. I’m sorry. She thought you were my assistant. Well, I am unemployed, so she’s got a point. Don’t tell me you’re hurting from. No, but I, uh, I do need to keep busy and you need to hire more people.

So why not hire me?

What’s that smile for? Are you, uh, reading my mind again? You think that that thing on your head is gonna keep me out? That. I guess you know that I’m thinking as nice as it sounds right now, the thought of giving up on romances something we both don’t wanna do. No, we don’t. We both deserve a chance at real love again.

Mm.

Nancy, Nancy Miller, you have always been by friend. I want you to have that happy ever after, and I want that for you. So I tell you what we’re gonna say goodbye. We’re gonna see each other. We’re gonna hang out now and then, and have a good time. Maybe even go seeing some needle diamond karaoke, anything.

But you don’t bring me flowers. Cause that would never be you.

Is your husband enjoying his donuts? Was that nutmeg I tasted in there? It is my grandmother’s secret recipe. And none of your business, what was the meaning of that crack about Jennifer? I’ve decided I can’t divulge that attorney client privilege. Oh, you’re a lawyer. Like I’m a nuclear physicist. No, no.

You tell me about that cracker. I’m gonna take my rolling pin and hit you up the side of the head. Uh, Jack, this twit friend of yours said he got in the house with your permission. He did, but he’ll be leaving soon. Well fine. You deal with them.

I assume you meant I will be leaving with a big fat check. I’m afraid not. I just came from Gwen’s hospital room. You lied about going to the bank. No need Gwen, and I manage to settle this whole matter without you. What does that mean? That the only person who’s a eyewitness to the accident is Gwen, and she is not gonna say a word about who hit her when it happened, so get the hell outta here.

Now can I at least get the old ladies’ donut recipe first? Alright,

so you really wanna help me, huh? Put Paulina behind the big old desk in a state. Well, I need to focus on something outside of myself, and this is only for about month, so I won’t be shortchanging my kids. And honestly, I believe that probably enter price is the best choice for governor. So yeah, it’s really going to be hectic.

Well, if I suck at it, which you won’t, I’m giving you my permission to fire me. What do you say? I say welcome to S J P R.

Good. I was afraid Leo would still be here. No, I made sure work event, so now I’m free. To focus on you. Check. It was incredibly gracious of Gwen to cover for me and let this go. I am so, so, so sorry for lying to you about the pills for, for getting behind the wheel. The car when I knew I was wasting, you already lost one daughter and I could have, I could have killed your other.

Can you ever forgive me? Don’t Please don’t. Don’t even, don’t talk like that.

How many times have you forgiven me?

I am so sorry. You were suffering with all of this alone and I never.

I guess I’m just guess this is what they call hitting bottom

check. What do I do now?

Whatever it is, you won’t be doing it alone.

I’m sorry. Go. I assumed you’d want me to make the most out of this opportunity. Well, you assumed wrong. You bloody little tosser. I thought I was doing this for both of us. You know how I feel about Jack. He was furious when he came into my room. You could scotch my relationship with him for good. I get it now.

Okay. Jack de is nobody’s sugar daddy. Now I’m left with all these pesky legal bills. I’ve got nobody to pay for them.

I’m gonna be staying with Doug and Julie. Looking forward to seeing some of the people I haven’t seen in so long.

I’ll be back.

Oh my God. Mike. Mike H. Yeah. Yeah, it’s me. All right. Oh, you’re back in Salem. Always did have a keen grasp, the obvious Nancy. Oh, um, well, um, I’m nice to see you again. Really? Do you have amnesia or something?

[ Dramatic music ]

[ Door latching ]

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

Ridge: No.

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

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

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

Liam: That’s your dinner reservation with ridge?

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

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

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

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

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

Taylor: Huh?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Ridge: I know! I know.

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

Thomas: She had a perfect chance to come clean?

Ridge: Yeah.

Thomas: What’d she say?

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

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

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

Thomas: I’m sorry.

Ridge: I got to go think.

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

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

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

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

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

Liam: There are? Like what?

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

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

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

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

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

Hope: Can’t catch a break, huh?

[ Thomas chuckles ]

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

[ Thomas sighs ]

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

[ Ridge sighs ]

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

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

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

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

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

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

Hope: No, I’m– I’m not.

Thomas: You’re not.

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

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

[ Hope laughs ]

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

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

Taylor: Mm.

Steffy: You okay?

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

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

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

Steffy: And dad.

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

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

With less

moderate-to-severe eczema,

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

Brooke: So, donna confirmed it.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Othello: All set.

Steffy: Thank you.

Othello: Steffy, aspen’s missed you.

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

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

Steffy: We’ll see, we’ll see.

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

Steffy: Yeah.

Othello: Bill told me to hook you up.

Steffy: I might take you up on it.

Othello: All right, sounds good.

Steffy: Good to see you.

Othello: Good to see you.

Steffy: Bye. Thanks again, othello.

[ Steffy sighs ]

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

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

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

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

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

Thomas: Steffy and I have

seen you go back and forth

between our mom and brooke

so many times,

it’s painful for us,

but it’s painful for her, too.

Steffy: Stop wasting

your time on brooke.

Have the life you deserve, dad.

Have it with mom.

You can find true happiness

with mom.

Go back to her.

Brooke: Oh, my god.

[ Brooke sobbing ]

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

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

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

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Summer: Thank you.

[ Laughter ]

Diane: Sit down.

Mariah: Kyle and summer, please join hands.

Noah: Dearly beloved…

Tessa: Friends and family…

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

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

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

Kyle: Mm.

Mariah: That’s the spirit, you two.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

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

Tucker: The countdown begins.

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

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

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

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

Connor: It’s no big deal.

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

[ Cellphone chimes ]

[ Sighs ]

Connor: What’s wrong?

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

Connor: Oh.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ]

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

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

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

Connor: Okay. What’s it about?

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

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

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

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

Connor: Okay.

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

Connor: What did you do?

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

Connor: He?

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

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

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

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

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

Summer: Right?

[ Both laugh ]

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

[ Laughter ]

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

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

Summer: [ Laughs ]

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

[ Chuckles ] So, you’re 45.

Connor: You were pregnant with johnny?

Chelsea: Yes.

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

Chelsea: No, it wasn’t like that.

Connor: Then what was it like?

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

Connor: Does johnny know?

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

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

Nick: Alright, I’ll start us off.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

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

Kyle: Already?

Summer: Oh, no.

[ Laughs ]

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

Summer: I will. Thank you, dad.

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

Phyllis: I’ll go next.

Nick: Okay.

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

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

Summer: Thanks, mom.

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

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

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

[ Sniffles ] I love you. Sorry.

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

Both: We will.

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

Both: We do.

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

Together: We will!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Mariah: Alright, then.

[ Laughs ]

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

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

Tessa: Amen!

[ Helicopter blades whirring ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Whirring intensifies ]

[ Wind whipping ]

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

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

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

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

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

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

Chelsea: Connor!

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

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

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

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

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

Chelsea: Sweetheart —

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

Chelsea: Connor! Connor!

Tucker: Oh, hey. [ Chuckles ]

Billy: Hey.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jack: Back off.

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

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

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Nope

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

Kyle: Yeah.

Tucker: Yeah. This is a classic one.

Kyle: Thanks, but no thanks.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Allie: A bentley. Wow.

Noah: Vintage, nonetheless.

Mariah: One heck of a gift.

Summer: It’s creepy.

Kyle: It’s over the top.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Chelsea: [ Breathes deeply ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Sniffles ]

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

[ Sighs ]

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Billy: Chelsea. Hey.

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

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

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

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

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

Chelsea: Really? Are you sure?

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

Chelsea: Okay. Thanks.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[ Up-tempo music playing ]

[ Indistinct singing ]

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

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

Nikki: Oh?

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

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

Jack: Which was precisely what?

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

Jack: Really? Why’s that?

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

Diane: Is everything okay?

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

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

Jack: Yeah, some things never change.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Victoria: Do you think there’s a connection?

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

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

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

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

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

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

You never know

what opportunities

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Chelsea: [ Sighs ]

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

Chelsea: How?

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

[ Breathes deeply ] Ahhhhhhhhhhh!

Chelsea: [ Chuckles ]

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

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

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

Chelsea: [ Breathes deeply ] Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

[ Exhales sharply ]

[ Laughs ]

[ Breathing deeply ]

Traci: Hey. Are you looking for somebody?

Victoria: Uh…billy. Have you seen him?

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

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

Traci: You’re welcome.

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

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

Allie: And the happy couple?

Summer: Yes.

Noah: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, sure.

[ Laughter ] Now to work the —

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

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: Oh, this is nice. Ready?

[ Camera shutter clicks ] One more.

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

Summer: [ Laughs ]

[ Camera shutter clicks ]

[ Laughter ]

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

Allie: Oh, wow!

Summer: That’s good.

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

Allie: Ooh.

Kyle: Presents? For us?

Summer: Show us, sweetie.

Kyle: Ooh.

Summer: Wow. It’s so pretty.

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

Nikki: Wait till you see what’s inside.

Kyle: There’s more?

Summer: Ooh, let’s see.

Kyle: Ooh.

Noah: Oh, killer design, harrison.

Allie: Ooh, harrison, what are those?

Nikki: I understand they’re coupons.

Kyle: Coupons? For what?

Harrison: For hugs and kisses!

Summer: Oh, I love it!

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

Summer: Yes.

[ Laughter ] Mwah!

Noah: Alright.

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

Noah: Say cheese!

[ Camera shutter clicks ]

[ Laughter ]

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Diane: [ Sighs ]

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

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

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

Diane: Yeah, absolutely.

Phyllis: Uh-huh.

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

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

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

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

Victor: My thoughts exactly.

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

[ Elevator doors open ]

Nate: [ Sighs ]

[ Elevator doors close ] Do my eyes deceive me?

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

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

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

Nate: Oh, well, thank you.

Esther: [ Chuckles ]

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

Elena: I have a meeting with devon.

Nate: About what?

Esther: [ Chuckling ] I’m not sure.

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

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

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

Esther: [ Chuckles ] The stories I could tell.

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

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

Nate: Mm. I know that feeling.

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

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

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

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

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

Esther: Mind? Oh, no, I-I’d love to.

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

Devon: Yeah, and I appreciate you understanding that.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Devon: You sure?

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

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Let’s be real…

Esther: Oh, my goodness!

Devon: Hey. What’d I miss?

Nate: Hey.

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

Esther: Oh, you.

[ Chuckles ]

Devon: Everything all right with you?

Nate: Yeah. Why wouldn’t it be?

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

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

Esther: Oh, that’s for sure.

Devon: She had a motto. Remember that?

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

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

Nate: Words to live by.

Devon: Yeah.

Esther: So, devon…

Devon: Yeah?

Esther: …Why’d you want to see me?

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

Esther: Uh-oh. What’d I say?

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

Esther: Yeah. That. Yeah.

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

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

Esther: Oh, that means so much to me.

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

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

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

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

Devon: Yeah?

Esther: [ Laughing ] Yes!

Devon: Good.

Esther: Wow.

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

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

Summer: Consider it forgotten.

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

Kyle: Ooh. Are you up for it?

Summer: Mm, dance all night with you?

Kyle: Oh, I thought you’d never ask.

Summer: [ Chuckles ]

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

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

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

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

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

Kyle: I’m sorry. What happened?

Summer: Tucker who? What?

[ Laughter ]

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

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

Diane: To what end?

Tucker: Why do you want to know that?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Summer: Prepare to return to a spoiled kid.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Esther: Really?

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

Esther: I will learn the routine in no time.

Devon: I have no doubt that you will.

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

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

Nate: Welcome aboard.

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

Devon: Yes, you are.

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

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

Devon: Oh.

Esther: I got to go.

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

Esther: Thanks. Bye!

Nate: Good move bringing esther on.

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

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

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

Victor: Son, no regulations have been violated.

Nick: Yet.

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

Victor: Hmm. Good.

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

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

Nate: I said we’d work things out.

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

Nate: What did she say?

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

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

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

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

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

Devon: Anything I can help with?

Devon: Okay. I appreciate your candor.

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

Can a cream really

reduce wrinkles?

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

Victoria: Tucker mccall has returned to genoa city.

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

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

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

Nate: I’ll see what I can find out.

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

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

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

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

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

Nikki: With any luck, it will.

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

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

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

[ Knock on door ]

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

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Drew?! You’re awake. You’re here.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[ Cellphone rings ] Falconeri. Sonny: You were right

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

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

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

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

[ Breathing deeply ]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

On the next “General Hospital” —

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

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

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

Fruit. Anyone?

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

Yeah, I’m going to

you.

I was having a nightmare about the accident.

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

or did you?

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

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

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

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

Do they have any leaves on the driver?

I can see the car and the headlights and

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

but then I lost it.

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

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

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

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

Stephanie, what are you doing here?

What is it? What’s wrong?

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

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

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

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

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

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

Jen, I’m so sorry.

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

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

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

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

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

actually what.

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

I saw her,

You saw her,

didn’t even realize that I.

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

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

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

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

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

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

And I am sorry

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Not what they done to you.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Oh my God. What?

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

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

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

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

coffee.

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

Did somebody say my name?

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

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

Yeah, she.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I could help.

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

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

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

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

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

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

What do you say,

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

Done to you.

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

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

they will be sorry they ever hurt my baby.

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

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

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

I’m sorry.

I’m sorry, Tim.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Wow.

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

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

Here, you can start with this press release,

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

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Dramatic music ]

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

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

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

[ Phone pinging ]

[ Door creaks ]

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

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

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

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

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

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

Taylor: Aspen, huh?

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

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

Steffy: Then let’s go.

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

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

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

Hope: Why?

Brooke: He’s fine, honey, really.

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

[ Brooke scoffs ]

Ridge: Why? Why?

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

Ridge: No, that’s not true, thomas.

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

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

Thomas: And, uh, you really believe that?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Hope: Oh, wow. Mom. Mom.

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

Hope: Thomas is.

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

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

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

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

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

[ Taylor sighs ]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[ Phone chimes ]

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

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

Brooke: Nothing.

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

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

Hope: And what exactly is that supposed to mean?

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

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

Brooke: No, of course not.

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

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

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

Brooke: Okay, I understand.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Steffy: Like mother, like daughter.

Taylor: Oh, boy, here we go.

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

Taylor: Put your seatbelt on.

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

Ridge: Dinner reservations, huh?

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

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

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

Taylor: Did you talk to finn?

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

[ Taylor sighs ]

Taylor: Okay, that’d be fun.

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

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

Steffy: Am I really that bad?

Taylor: Yes.

[ Both chuckle ]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Brooke: Has thomas crossed somebody lately?

Ridge: What do you mean?

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

Ridge: Seems a little extreme. They interrogated douglas.

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

Ridge: Right.

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

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

Brooke: Wait, what? Now? It–

Ridge: Yeah.

Brooke: Oh, ridge.

Ridge: It was you.

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

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

Interview with Jacob Anderson, Sam Reid and Bailey Bass

Posted on October 2, 2022March 3, 2023 by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

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

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

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

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

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

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

Suzanne: Have they told you yet?

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

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

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

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

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

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

JACOB ANDERSON: What could you possibly add?

SAM REID: Yeah.

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

Jamie: Okay, great. Thank you so much.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

SAM REID:

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

JACOB ANDERSON:

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

SAM REID: Yeah.

JACOB ANDERSON: But in liquid form.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Suzanne: Oh, good.

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

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

JACOB ANDERSON: Yeah, we did.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Anne Rice’s Interview with The Vampire

Two-Episode Series Premiere Sunday, October 2; Subsequent Episodes Available One Week Early on AMC+

A sensuous, contemporary reinvention of Anne Rice’s revolutionary gothic novel, Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire follows Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson), Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid) and Claudia’s (Bailey Bass) epic story of love, blood, and the perils of immortality, as told to journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian). Chafing at the limitations of life as a black man in 1900s New Orleans, Louis finds it impossible to resist the rakish Lestat De Lioncourt’s offer of the ultimate escape: joining him as his vampire companion. But Louis’s intoxicating new powers come with a violent price, and the introduction of Lestat’s newest fledgling, the child vampire Claudia, soon sets them on a decades-long path of revenge and atonement.

Interview with the cast of “Family Law”

Posted on October 2, 2022October 2, 2022 by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

cast of Family Law on The CW

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

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

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

THE CW NETWORK

Family Law

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

JEWEL STAITE: Aw. Thanks. See guys?

JORDY RANDALL: She’s being polite.

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

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

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

KAREN: Thank you.

JEWEL STAITE: Thank you.

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

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

JEWEL STAITE: You wanna go first?

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

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

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

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

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

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

ZACH SMADU: Enough with the sage.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

MIKE HUGHES: And Susin, you mentioned…

SUSIN NIELSEN: You, I mentioned what?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

VICTOR GARBER: Oh, stop it.

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

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

VICTOR GARBER: Mythical law degree.

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

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

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

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

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

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

ABBY: Thank you.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

GENELLE WILLIAMS: I didn’t know!

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

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

GENELLE WILLIAMS: Lucy is much more guarded.

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

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

JEWEL STAITE: That’s true.

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

VICTOR GARBER: That’s the point, yeah.

ZACH SMADU: Something that Lucy also does, yes.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

ZACH SMADU: Was it cereal?

VICTOR GARBER: It was cereal.

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

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

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

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

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

SUSIN NIELSEN: Later Victor, over drinks.

VICTOR GARBER: Yeah. Oh, you know.

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

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

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

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

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

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

JEWEL STAITE: That’s true. [INAUDIBLE]

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

JEWEL STAITE: And I love you.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

LOU ANN: Thank you.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

With the return of “Chucky” just around the corner, fans can anticipate an exhilarating second season that pushes the boundaries of horror and explores new depths of the beloved character. The series continues to captivate audiences and carve its own path in the horror genre, thanks to the creative genius of Don Mancini and the exceptional performances of the talented cast.

[ Knock on door ] Brook lynn: Chase! Open up.

[ Knocking continues ] I know you’re in there. Come on. We’ve got a big d– a big what?

[ Clears throat ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Groans softly ] Remember me? I’m sorry. Who are you? I’m the pool man.

[ Giggles ]

[ Tense music plays ]

[ Handcuffs rattling ] Hi. My god, spencer, what happened? Dr. Finn. Nik, how can I help you? Well, you could start by minding your own damn business. Which is what I was doing before you stopped me. You went to my wife… whoa, whoa, whoa. …Behind my back and interfered with our private matters. That was a big mistake. And it will cost you. I hear you’re being discharged. Mm. Not a minute too soon. I’m grateful for the care I received here, of course, but I will be glad to leave. Then I will put a rush your paperwork and we’ll get you out of here. Oh, elizabeth. T-there’s something that you and I need to settle first. Morning, gregory. Morning, alexis. Have you slept at all? Why? [ Chuckles ] Do I look exhausted and bedraggled? We were at the invader till wee hours, so I was thinking maybe you’d slept in. Well, I-I knew you would be pulling a literal all-nighter doing the op-ed, so, uh, I came back here. Wanted to keep an eye on your friend. Nina: Hey. You — you okay? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I’m fine. I just — I’m just worried about everybody else. Oh, yeah. Any word on diane? Oh, she’s at G.H. I’m gonna check on her later. Did you, uh… did you see the invader? Oh, yeah. I saw that. What do you think? Uh, well, alexis took a brave stand. Letting that psychopath know that port charles is not a community to be messed with. What do you think? Well, I think she — she better know what she’s doing because it seems like the attacker is targeting people who are connected to me. Yeah, and you and alexis have a daughter who happened to see the killer, you know, in action. So I’m sure you have eyes on both alexis and kristina. Yeah. How’s your bodyguard? Oh, uh, well… guess I’m getting used to it, you know? But I did feel safer last night having him there, so thank you. Yeah, yeah, hopefully it doesn’t last too long. Do you know who’s behind these attacks?

I have a confession to make. Okay. I’m not really your pool man.

[ Gasps ]

[ Sighs ] I knew it. How? I don’t have a pool.

[ Both laugh ] I want to remember all of this. Okay. Name three things. Uh, being in your bed. Okay. That’s one. Being in your bed with you. That’s two. These are very general. Um, closure. No. No, no, no. I mean it. Letting go of decades of bad decisions and missed opportunities with you. It’s okay. This is all I want to remember — you and me doing this. Always.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Do you mind if I just — it’s fine. Yeah. It’s fine.

[ Sighs ] What’s wrong? I’m worried about you, spence. You — you look like you haven’t eaten since you got here. Oh, this? This is the work of my fellow inmates who go out of their way to make sure that I never have the right size clothes. I had assurances you would be protected. And I am. Physically, anyway. Go on. On my second day here, I had a run-in with a guy who said that he wanted to rearrange my face. Fortunately, a guy arrived before he could do that, and that was the end of that. And what’s this — this business with the clothes? Well, the other inmates know that I’m a rich kid who’s under protection from important people whose cop “friend” got him a cushy job. So they find other ways to mess with me, like making sure that I never have a uniform that fits, stealing food and supplies that I buy from the commissary, threatening me with all manner of, uh [Clears throat] Horrible fates. I’m gonna speak with the warden. No! No, please don’T. That will only make things worse. If you were referring to me being with elizabeth when she told ava that you lied about your alibi — you had absolutely no right. You lying to your wife is none of my concern. By which I mean, I literally do not care. Nor should you. But I won’t let you take advantage of elizabeth. So find someone else to give you a fake alibi. No, I was giving both of us an alibi because elizabeth couldn’t account for her whereabouts when ava was attacked. I did what I did to protect her. You were covering your own ass! You giving elizabeth an alibi was just working in your favor. You know what? I don’t care what you believe, but do you have any idea of the amount of damage you could have caused by telling ava the truth? It’s like you don’t even care about elizabeth at all. I just wan t to thank youfor telling me the truth about nikolas’ so-called alibi. Mm. I know that he is one of your oldest friends and that could not have been easy. I should be grateful he gave me an alibi. Do you think that he would have done that if it hadn’t provided him with one, as well? The nikolas I grew up with would have done it in a heartbeat. And what about the nikolas as he is now? After you were attacked, everything was so uncertain, um, yeah, I did have my doubts about his motives. Well, don’t beat yourself up about that. Neither of us were sure about nikolas. Exactly. But we are now. Well, from what I read, the police are waiting for diane to make it through surgery to see if she can identify her attacker. But if you have learned something new… let’s just say I’m, you know — I’m just — I’m — I’m working on. Oh, okay. Frank told me that michael went to the pozzulo’s last night. What about it? Well [Scoffs] How did it go? Did you come to some kind of truce? Well, you know, uh, we just talked about what happened to brando. How’s sasha? Uh, fragile. And gladys? Oh, well, gladys is gladys. She’s in a lot of pain, but she’s enduring. I admire that in her. Yeah, she actually convinced sasha to start making funeral arrangements for brando, but unfortunately, sasha’s credit card was declined. How — how’s that possible? Because she’s not in control of her finances right now, and it’s still unclear who is. But if she’s having financial problems, I-I’m — I’ll do what I gotta do to help. I know. I know you will, but — but you don’t have to worry about this because I already put my credit card down for the deposit. But you do know that I’m gonna help her. I do. I do know that, okay? Okay. I’m here. Right now, I’m more concerned about her state of mind because she’s already carrying so much. And now with this guardianship, I just don’t want this to be the straw that breaks her. Sasha is going to be okay. Well, how do — how do you know that? Because she has you. How are you able to get updates if you’re not family? I have a secret weapon. Finn. Yeah.

[ Chuckles ] Diane’s still in surgery.

[ Exhales sharply ] Still? Finn says these things can take a while. I hope that’s all it is, because I need her to be okay. I know. And now I guess we just wait and see how our little op-ed pans out and if it brings the killer out into the light. Have you eaten? Mnh-mnh. Let’s get you some sustenance. And while we’re at it, uh, maybe we can track finn down and finagle another update. Lead the way.

[ Sighs ] Shoot. I really needed that caffeine. I’ll go make us some coffee. Oh, you can definitely make me some coffee. And I will definitely thank you for it. You, my friend, cannot have any caffeine. And why not? Because it’s murder on your vocal chords. Didn’t your vocal coach ever teach you that? And tonight, you need to be in peak form. Wait, are you saying I’m not in…peak form? Vocally. I knew what you meant.

[ Scoffs ] Look, we need to get you ready. Everything we’ve been working towards, it’s all riding on tonight. Right. Right. Peak form. Okay, good. It’s just — it’s really important that we…stay focused. Oh, I’m — I’m laser focused. Are you?

Bonjour. I miss you.

Je t’aime. She looks happy. Charlotte still has no idea she’s being used as leverage. She misses me. She can’t understand why we’ve been apart so long. You will see her again. Trust me. More than anyone. Damning me with faint praise. A little bit. Yeah. Yes. I trust you implicitly. Then believe me when I say we will bring charlotte home. Victor’s playing the long game. So far he’s winning. I didn’t say it would be easy. He’s a formidable opponent. And you’ve carried this alone for too long. But you have me now. And we’re changing the game. Together. You with me? The ends of the earth, darling. What’s the move? Well…unfortunately, the best way to get to victor is through lucy. Oh, she’s proven to be a wild card in every sense of the word. I know. The sooner we can find another way, the better. Any thoughts on what that might be? Mnh-mnh. But that’s okay. We’ll figure it out together. Now, spencer, as head of this family, it’s my duty to make sure you’re taken care of. Both you and uncle sonny have people in here looking out for me, but they can’t be around me 24/7. This place is like 15 times bigger than spring ridge, full of angry, violent people. The best thing that I can do is keep my head down and stay out of everyone’s way. And the best thing that you can do — is assassinate anyone who looks at you cross-eyed. I’m sure your uncle sonny would agree. In fact, protecting you is probably the only thing we do agree on. What part of “don’t” is unclear? Spencer, I can’t just sit back and watch you suffer at the hand of a bunch of convicts. You owe me. All right. All right. But if you change your mind — I won’T. How’s life in port charles?

[ Sighs ] How’s ava’s recovery? She gets discharged today. You can ask me about him, you know? Who? Your father. Finn: Let’s get one thing straight. Elizabeth’s her own person. She decided to tell ava that your alibi is a lie. She thought you might pose a danger to your wife, and she decided to err on the side of the truth. A concept you’re not familiar with, I know. You know, the only person in danger is elizabeth, because all of this turmoil started with you. You’re the reason that she’s so messed up. What did you say? Wait. Wait. Wait. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Say it again! Say it again! Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop it! Whoa, whoa, whoa. Back to your corners. Geez. What are you doing? As long as there’s a lunatic running around with a hook, I don’t think I’ll be sure of much. At the risk of overstepping, at the quartermaine picnic, nikolas told me the two of you were having trouble. I’m under the assumption that you guys worked things out, but in case I’m wrong, can I say something? Yeah, of course. I’m sure you already know that nikolas has been through some really dark times growing up. He’s not an easy person. But he is capable of love and devotion. And honestly, I’ve only seen him in love one other time before he met you. Only you can decide what you’re willing to accept. And as for nikolas, it’s not always pretty, but it is love. Unwavering love. Oh, you know what? I have to get to the hospital because ava is getting discharged, and I want to make one last pitch for her to stay with me. Why aren’t they going to wyndemere? Well, she wants to go to wyndemere, but, you know, I’m worried that living with nikolas again so soon is gonna be too stressful for her. I know they’re having problems, but, you know, I j– I just wish that a– she would just kick him to the curb. Ava — nikolas is not a good person. Listen, it’s okay. Ava and nikolas have a very powerful connection. You call it powerful. I call it toxic. Well, their marriage is a lot more complicated than we know. Wish as much as you want, but I wouldn’t assume that they’re done. Nina, come on. You can’t tell me that they’re good for each other. A lot of people think that

we’re not good for each other. Stop it. Stop what? Being all sexy. Look, we — we need to stay focused on the plan. Sexy? You need to perform flawlessly tonight, okay? Right, right, the more successful I am, the more linc will want to sign me. And the angrier he’ll be with me, making him want to sign you even more. And then when we’ve got him exactly where we want him… I will fire you, sign with him, retire, and then leave him high and dry. Looking like the loser that he is. And then hopefully, uh, I can be a cop again someday. If they’ll have me. Oh, they will. You are the best guy who’s ever been on that force, okay? One day they’ll wise up to that. You think so? I know so. How? I just do. Time.

[ Sighs, giggles ] Look, as much

[Breathing heavily] As I want this… no. We — we want this. …You need to take all of this energy… so much good energy. …And just put it into the show. Huh? Yeah. And all the leftover energy will fill other arenas, okay? Hmm. No, no, no, no, no, no. Just — go get dressed, okay? And then… you’ll come back a-and we’ll talk strategy.

[ Exhales sharply ] Just go.

[ Exhales deeply ] Well, I’ll go get your paperwork. Hey, elizabeth. Are you all right? Nikolas mentioned to me that — that you blacked out the night that I was attacked, that you can’t remember where you were or what you were doing. Yeah. Sorry, I-I… probably should have told the police all that. No, I don’t blame you for anything. I’m just asking if you’re okay.

[ Sighs ] I just have way too much on my mind. This is a hospital, for pete’s sake. Oh, I know. I am on the board. Really? ‘Cause you’re acting like you’re on the playground. Come with me. Now! So that’s alexis’ nephew? Nikolas cassadine? Yeah. How could you tell? The overwhelming smell of jerk in the air? And he’s a-a friend of elizabeth’s? Well, the word friend might be a little subjective.

[ Exhales deeply ] I remember you said you didn’t think he had elizabeth’s best interests at heart. He’s only got his own best interests at heart. Okay, so why were you twogoing at it about elizabeth? Did he do something to her? Oh, it’s just — I don’t like him. Dad, I don’t trust him. But maybe in his own ultra privileged, narcissistic way, he does actually care about elizabeth. He said he was looking out for her. A-are you taking him at his word? For now. I would rather discuss literally anyone else. Like your stepmother? I didn’t know you cared so deeply about ava. I don’T. She’s the first person you asked about. Because she’s important to the people who I do care about. Like your father who you refuse to discuss? Like trina. Ah, I see. Speaking of trina, how is she? Well, I think you should probably ask your friends. I would if they’d visit. They haven’t? Mnh-mnh. You’re my first. I’m sorry. Why? What’d you do this time? No, I should have been here sooner. I — I got wrapped up in other time-sensitive matters. I’ll try to do better. Look, I brought this on myself. The only people left who care about me are you and maybe britt, my grandmother. Of course, she’s in italy. Still… nothing is more important to me, spencer, than family. If I’d only known what you’ve been going through. It’s not your fault. Let me make it up to you. I can get a message to trina if you’d like me to. Granted, our history — is nothing like nikolas and ava. Our cheering section is roughly the same size as theirs. I don’t care what people think. We’re good for each other. Well, you don’t have to convince me of that, handsome. Selina: Mr. Corinthos. Mm. Hey. Ms. Reeves. Hello, ms. Wu. Um, it’s nice to see you. Hi. I was so sorry to hear of your cousin’s passing. Thank you. And I understand you’re close to his widow. Uh, yeah. Uh, sasha and i are very close. Can’t imagine what that poor woman is going through, especially when her husband’s killer still roams free. If I can be of further assistance during these trying times, please let me know. Thank you. I will. In the meantime, I was wondering if I might see you at the savoy tonight. Perhaps you’ve heard. The young talent you mentioned to me is performing. Harrison chase. Well, actu– I was thinking about it, but… I, uh — sorry. Got to go.

[ Chuckles ] Uh, it’s a pleasure to see you. See you later. She’s quite lovely. Yeah, she is. And are you convinced you can keep her safe?

Diane miller is a formidable woman. Sonny: Yep. She is. I’m confident this isn’t how her story ends. I also know you have a guard watching nina. Yeah. I hope my supposition doesn’t offend you, but it would seem these attacks are related to you. That’s crossed my mind. And the police? It’s crossed theirs, too. It could be bad for business. And since we share a bottom line, my resources remain at your disposal. Thank you for your cooperation. Anything else? Just one more thing. In keeping you apprised per our arrangement, there’s a game scheduled for tonight. You know the place is gonna be crawling with friends of the pcpd. He was a cop. You know that, right? The concert provides my players with a convenient cover. And as an added benefit, they can watch the entertainment. Word of the game has spread, attracting even more influential players, raising the cost of the buy-in. Would you like a seat at the table? It’s an interesting offer, but I already get a cut of the door.

[ Chuckles ] You’d stand to gain so much more. From what I hear… yeah? …You’re quite a skilled player. Can I deal you in? Spencer: Thanks, but no. Come now, spencer. I don’t know if it’s pride or obstinance, but we both know trina is important to you. I never said that she wasn’T. Well, if you don’t want to reach out to her, then why bring her up? Because I read an article in the invader that there was another attack, this psycho with a hook, and I wanted to make sure that trina was okay. Well, you needn’t worry. The prevailing wisdom is that these attacks are related to your uncle sonny. Uncle sonny will take care and protect his family. I just wish I could help. No, you just — you just focus on helping yourself. And as for these gruesome attacks, well, there is some good news. Your father is no longera person of interest. Uncle victor, for the last time, I do not want to hear anything about my father. I told him that I was done with him and I meant it. If he’s capable of betraying me the way that he did, I don’t want anything to do with him. Oh, come on, spencer. Where is he? He hasn’t even tried to visit. I take it you want him to visit only so you can turn him away. Well, maybe he’s doing you a favor by skipping that part. Yes, I told him to stay away. But the man who I grew up with, the father who raised me, he wouldn’t have listen. I’ll talk to nikolas. No, don’t waste your breath. Thank you for visiting me. I should get going to the library. I don’t want to be late for my work detail. Very well. I’ll, uh — I’ll be back soon. Meantime, keep your chin up. And watch your back.

[ Receiver clicks ] May I remind you that my best friend is in the O.R. Fighting for her life?

[ Exhales deeply ] I’m genuinely sorry that I upset you, especially when you need to worry about diane. Has there — has there been any news? No, she’s still in surgery, and she’s gonna be in there for a while. Anything I can do to help?

[ Sighs, clears throat ] I don’t think that there — you could not brawl in the hospital, for starters. Done. Done. Anything else? I — there’s nothing anybody can do. You know, I saw — I saw the invader. Your op-ed on the united front in port charles. Too much? No. It was perfect. You’re showing this monster that we can’t be intimidated. Thank you. I needed that. Do you think he’s gonna answer up to the challenge? Well, we’re gonna find out soon enough. I hope that my instincts are right and that his ego is gonna be his downfall. Because if this doesn’t work… …I’ve poked the bear. And I’ve — I’ve set the bear onto this path of destruction that’s gonna put everybody in danger. So, how is elizabeth doing? Good. Good. All things considered, I think she’s — she’s making a lot of progress. Well, I’m glad to hear it. Yeah.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Oh. Hey, I’m sorry, dad. Gotta go check on a patient. Go. Save lives. Yeah. Are you gonna be at chase’s show tonight? Yeah. No, of course. I’m — I’m coming with elizabeth. And we’re bringing terry. Oh, wa– he’s gonna be great. But, you know, if he bombs, it’s okay if I tease him a little, right?

[ Elevator bell dings ]

[ Laughs ] Always a supportive brother, aren’t you? Always. Ha! Chase: Brook lynn?

[ Sighs deeply ] Whoa, whoa, whoa. What — what’s all this? Do you know how much hidden sugar is in your food? I know how much I spent on it, regardless of what’s in it. Well, that’s beside the point. You’re throwing out my oranges? Well, do you want to pepper-spray your vocal chords? Citrus is too acidic. I take it you threw out my peppers. I-I mentioned them for a reason. Nothing spicy. Come on! Yogurt? Uh, dairy? Eggs? I-I said no dairy. Eggs aren’t dairy. Well, they’re in the dairy section. Oh, come on! My soy milk? Oh, don’t even get me started on soy milk with singers. The phlegm. So this bag basically contains everything that’s in my kitchen? You know what? You are right. There is nothing in this house for you to eat. I got to stop by deception, and then I will treat you to breakfast. Are you coming or not?

[ Sighs ] I considered bugging victor’s room, but he takes extensive precautions. Yeah. He would have found it immediately. I wouldn’t have learned anything, and charlotte would have been put at greater danger. Hmm. We need him to lower his guard. Well, he’s hardly gonna do that with either of us, is he? We need someone he won’t see coming. Hi. Anna. Valentin. I didn’t know you two made it official. Yeah. Would it kill you to act a little jealous? Oh, fine. Okay, um… get your hands off my man! No. Listen, I’m glad I ran into you, because I’ve really been thinking a lot about charlotte. Oh, that’s funny. I just, uh, heard from her this morning. Oh! Look how growing up she is! Oh!I can hardly believe it myself. I know she’s really busy with her fancy school and all of her friends, but I miss her. I miss you, too. Next time you talk to her, will you tell her to give me a ring? I will. Congratulations, nina, on being the new co-owner here. Oh! Yeah. It’s an adventure.

[ Chuckles ] Well, it suits you. You look, uh, happy. You look happy, too. An– you — both of you. Oh. Thank you. Uh, I need to go. O-okay. Bye. Bye. It was really nice to see. You, too. I think she’s the answer.

It’s an interesting offer, but I think with everything that’s going on, I’m not gonna be able to make that game. A seat is always available to you, regardless. Mr. Chase. I’m looking forward to hearing you sing tonight. I heard — I heard about your gig. Congratulations. Thank you. Is, uh — is nina around? I was hoping to thank her. Uh, for what? For putting in a word with curtis about getting me an audition at the savoy. By she, I hope that you’re referring to lucy and not nina. Lucy’s already got an assignment. Nina’s the one. She can help us get to victor. How did things go with ava? Did you figure out what to do for her? “I, nikolas ca ssadine,of sound mind and body…” yeah, that’s debatable. Keep reading. “…Do hereby acknowledge and confess that I, and I alone, am resp…onsible for the disappearance of esme prince. I know this… because I killed her.” I took your advice. I gave ava total and complete power over me. That’s not what I said. That wasn’t my advice. How — how did “take a risk, show her how much you care about her” turn into “I’m turning over all my power to her”? No, I-it was the right thing. Honestly, it was the only thing I could do. Well, w-wha– never mind. I don’t want to know. Don’t need to know. Hope it works. Well, I am on my way to find out. Good luck. You’re gonna need it. It never hurts with ava. Mm-hmm. Oh, look, there’s my cue. Uncle victor. What brings you by? Oh, ava, of course. She is family. I’m here to support the both of you. And your son. My son’s not here. I know. I just came from visiting spencer. You did? How is he? A visit from his father would do him a world of good. Ah, spencer made it very clear he doesn’t want to see me. Nikolas, it’s time you stepped up as a father. Your son needs you now more than ever. Whoa there. Oh, hi. Sorry. I-I — sorry. I was, um — somewhere else? Yeah, between work and everything else, I just — I have a lot going on in my mind. I understand. Um, elizabeth… I know you’ve been going through a rough time lately. Finn h-hasn’t told me any of the details or betrayed your confidence. But, uh, I know he cares about you a great deal. Well, I care about him, too. Gregory. I need your help. I’m here to spring ya. Oh, thank god. You know, I really need a long, hot bath and a big, strong drink. Both of which you can get at my place. Come on, ava. I know you can go wherever you want to from here, okay? But listen, I know you believe that you can coexist with nicholas at wyndemere. But I’m worried that it’s going to be more challenging than you think. Yeah. Well, things are definitely still less than ideal. But I hate the idea that I’m being thrown out of my own house. I didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t screw up. That is right. And I would be more than happy to put you up at my place for however long you need. Nikolas: That won’t be necessary. Ava and I will be going home together.

[ Dramatic music plays ] What the hell? That was long overdue.

You remember at the pool? Nina said she was gonna talk to curtis about booking me at the savoy and then the two of you left I-I thought to go talk to him. No, no, we — we — we went to the savoy. But I don’t think nina got a chance to talk to curtis. Well, maybe she spoke with him later? I don’t think so, because, uh, I think she would have told me if she asked curtis to book you. Well, if nina didn’t talk to curtis, how did my gig get arranged? Selina: Has curtis given you any trouble? Nah, just a misunderstanding. I, uh — I ran into a singer — harrison chase. You heard of him? The detective on suspension. Yeah. Uh, good singer, good guy. I thought he’d be a good fit for the savoy. I appreciate you thinking of us and making the connection. I’m sure curtis will, too. I’m hoping you can answer a question. Absolutely. I’d be happy to. How well did you know finn’s wife, reiko? Hey! Just who I was looking for. I have news about diane. I can tell you right now that I have no intention of including another civilian in this. I’m not gonna put nina in harm’s way. But she can help us without being put at risk. So what are you thinking? To save charlotte, we need access. Nina could be the key. I’ve made all the arrangements, every comfort and amenity. It awaits you at wyndemere. Shall we? No. I’m not going with you. Wyndemere is you’re home, and you shouldn’t be driven away because of what I did. Well, I have no intention of giving up my claim to wyndemere. I’m just — I’m not ready to live under the same roof as you. Yet. But I thought after everything we discussed, we — I know. We’re just not there yet. Oh. Perfect timing. I am ready to go home. I thought you just said that — my old home. My first home in port charles, where I felt safe before I got mixed up with you. That is, if your offer still stands? It certainly does. Then let’s go. Pick it up. I’ll get it later. Pick it up. I — dude, you dropped it. You pick it up. I said pick it up! Ah!

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Katie, are you, uh, I awake. Oh, yes, I’m awake. I’m wide, wide awake,

cause of salt leaving the hospital and coming here. I feel better. Well, I think this might help.

I’m Fred. She’s the same, but thanks for checking in. Right. I’ll let you know. Oh, so you’ll let them know, but not your daughter, Stephanie. So mom is so sick. She’s been admitted to the hospital, but God forbid I should hear about it from you. I’m sorry, baby. I, I just didn’t wanna worry you, Dad. I am not a child.

My God. I had to hear about this from Eric who thought I already knew. And not only is Mom seriously ill, but so are Marlena and Kate. Yeah. Are they going to.

Right now, baby, we just don’t know.

Well, you know what the scorecard is? We whip the devil again. Thank you. But now we’re up against another force of darkness, Orpheus.

Lord Doc Kate K. They really need your help right now, so please just give them the strength to fight this.

Hey,

checked on my Lena, Eric Beller with her, and I told me that you were here. How is she? She’s asleep. I have. You know, I sat up with her all night trying to find a way to make her comfortable. I couldn’t do it,

and that the woman I love is suffering and help her son’s.

So pray.

That time. Uh, hi, uh, Stephan. Um, what are you doing here? I, I told you that I’m. Brady. Now, why would you stop by for no reason? I have a reason I came here to wish you happy birthday.

God, that could have been a disaster. Oh, relax. Relax. Do you have any idea how rare this is? Have I never been able to replace it? And this is perhaps my most important project ever. Well, I have a new project for you, Ralph, so you’re gonna have to put that one on hold and get on mine right away. Those have your urgent requests.

What is it this time, Kristen? Well, I don’t know the technical term for it, but I need you to fry Chloe’s brain

like Sands through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

I’m sorry baby. I was gonna tell you Yeah, when, as soon as we had a better idea of what we’re dealing with, we’re waiting for some test results from the ISA medical lab. The first round was inconclusive, so they have to run everything again. And you didn’t think I’d wanna know all. This is just like when Mom and Marlina were kidnapped.

Well, I explained to you why I had to keep you in the dark about that, right? Because Oria said he would kill them if you told anyone. So what’s your excuse this time? Like I said, I wanted to wait until, Until you had more information, which clearly you still don’t have. We do know one thing or fierce is behind this too.

I just talked to a woman, Kate and Kayla, they’re, uh, they’re failing just like doc fevers getting worse. So is the fatigue that. Maybe, maybe the medication give, give them some relief. At least to, he’s not doing anything. What we need is a cure, and there’s no way we’re gonna find a cure unless we can figure out exactly what that cycle into.

What about the ISA didn’t, Wasn’t the ISA runs some blood work, Steve said. They’re totally baffled too. I mean, these are experts. Totally stopped. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. We’re just gonna rerun these tests again and we’re gonna see if maybe we missed something the first time. In the meantime, all we can do is just sit here and wait.

I came as soon as I heard you called him. Of course I did. You should really be in the hospital right now, honey. What’s the point? There’s nothing that they can do for me. What? Don’t say that. What’s the truth? Okay, so that’s really why I wish that you haven’t come. Well, it’s too bad I’m here. Don’t watch mine.

To watch me die? No. To watch you get better. We’re gonna figure out what is making you sick and we’re gonna find a cure. And I’m gonna be by your side until we do

today is your birthday right? Ah S Stephan, listen, you know, I remember the first time I found out that you were a Libra. I thought to myself, classic Libra, she’s intelligent, kind, caring, often, thinks so much about others, that she commonly neglects herself yourself. These are for you, by the way, some of your favorites, if I remember correctly.

Yeah, that that’s right. Thank you.

So any special plans for the night? Anyone throwing you a party? No. No. No plans. No party. Why not? Don’t tell me no one remembered your birthday. Actually no one did. Huh?

Only me, huh? Yeah, only you.

I don’t know what you’ve been told Kristen, but I do not. Fry brains. Ooh. But Chloe is so small, it won’t be too challenging. Please go. I’m very busy. Okay. You don’t understand. I can’t let her get away with what happened. You don’t need me. You need a lawyer? No, no, no, no, no. See, I represented myself at the custody hearing and I was fantastic, Ralph.

Yeah. I mean, I was so close to victory, I could just taste it and then all of a sudden the judge ruled against me. I’m sure she had her reasons. Yeah. The reason was Chloe in right before the decision came down, I saw Chloe skulking around the courthouse, and I don’t know what the hell she did. But she definitely pulled something and now I have lost my daughter.

I wish I could help you. You’re going to help me, bro. See together we are gonna stop that home wrecking floor once and for all.

So all the people you love forgot your birthday, huh? Okay. Can we just drop the subject of my. It, it’s fine that no one remembered. It’s totally understandable. Hmm. You’re awfully forgiving. Well, there’s nothing to forgive. My father just went through a divorce and a horrible breakup, and my mother almost married a murderer, so she’s obviously a mess.

I heard about that. I’m so sorry. Yeah. Well, at least she found out about Clyde West and before their wedding, and it’s just, I can’t believe what he did to Abigail and to Sunny. It’s just, it’s horrific. The fact that he tried to kill Chad too. Well, thank God DJ shot him, saved my brother’s life. Clyde survived.

Unfortunately, I don’t know if would’ve mattered to my mother either way, but the point is she’s got so much going on right now. She doesn’t know what day it is, or it’s my birthday and my God too. And my little sister has never remembered my birthday, so that’s no surprise. Well, all of that makes sense.

It’s understand. But what’s Brady’s excuse?

I’ve just been so wrapped up on everything that’s happened with Doc here. I didn’t ask you about the custody hearing or apologize for how I lost her on the stand of, Hey, so Dad. Dad, don’t worry about it. case is closed. It is. It is closed. And your son won? I still have custody. Oh wait, that’s, Oh, that’s great.

You know, that’s wonderful news. I’m so glad it went your way. Yeah, actually, actually, I have Chloe to thank, She, she went to bat for me, but the judge and made all the difference in the world. God bless her heart. Yeah. Listen Kid, I, I want to know, and I’m sure you already knew the doc and I, we are just, we are so happy that you and Glue you were back together again.

So my, so

of course we’re gonna find a cure for whatever this is. I know you believe that when you check yourself out of the hospital. I wish I still felt that way. It’s. Just what, sweetheart? It’s hard to be optimistic when you just keep on feeling worse and worse. You know, I, I don’t see how they can find a cure when they don’t know it’s even wrong.

This, but, but they will. Okay. They’re on it and so am I. You. Yes, God, show me your labs. And he gave me all the information that the ISA and the doctors have, and I forwarded over all of it. And look, I have to confer with the other doctors, but I’m pretty sure that what’s causing you to be sick is not a naturally occurring pathogen.

Wait a minute. So you’re saying you think this could be manmade by or is? Mm-hmm. . Now look, I could be proven wrong, but right now, I think Orias created this in a lab.

All you have to do is kidnap Chloe and bring her here. And then you zap her nauseating love for Brady right out of her pee brain and strengthen her love and feelings for Stephan out to the Christian. Damn it. You, you, you did it with Stephan. You wiped out his love for Gabby and you pumped up his, his feelings for Chloe.

I’m just simply asking you to make it reciprocal.

God, six rough, get on it. You know what? This is gonna take some time, so you need to get this started. Now here what I just said out of the question.

Oh, mom, I’m so sorry I wasn’t here sooner. Oh, baby Don. It’s okay. I I didn’t want your father to worry you. And actually, I, I was just gonna go check on Marlena. No, no, no. She, She’s my friend and I, I, I, you know my job. I need to Well, no mom. Your only job is to take care of yourself, Baby. Listen, listen. Marla is getting top, not care from Dr.

Patel. Okay. Now I can go talk to him right now. If that’ll make you feel better, will that make you feel better? Yeah, yeah, yeah, please. You will make sure she doesn’t try to make a run for it. I will make sure. You stay right here.

Look, Brady, forgetting my birthdates. The same reason my parents did. He has so much going on right now. In fact, he’s at the hospital at the moment with his father because Marlena’s very sick. I’m so sorry. I didn’t know. Yeah, and you probably didn’t know that he went through a brutal custody battle with your sister.

And thank God it’s over now. But it was very stressful for him. So C one, no she didn’t, but the whole fight just took a terrible toll on him, and now his stepmother has some horrible disease. Wow. Well, I will definitely be praying for her. She’s always been very kind to me, which is especially generous because I have not been kind to her.

I’m assuming you’re talking about locking her up in the secret room. I am not mine. Finest moment and I deeply regret it. Look, Stephan, no minute, Say no more. You have made it abundantly clear that you are in love with Brady, so I’m not gonna push. So no more surprise visits, no more pop-ins, and I apologize if I made you feel uncomfortable.

It’s, it’s not that I’m sure that you’re uncomfortable as well. I’m sure it’s not easy coming back after four years. I do feel for you. Yeah. It is not the same way I feel about you, and that’s okay. I have to get over it and I will eventually. In the meantime, Chloe, I’m hoping we can still be friends.

Have you forgotten that the two of us were recently pardoned? Of course not. But I’m the one who got you the damn pardon. And I am grateful, but I do not want to return to prison. I’ve already put my freedom at risk by conditioning Stephanie. Okay? No one knows about that. All they know is that you kept my brother alive for four years and brought him back with a new heart, and you are solidly in the Damaris, good graces.

And I would like to stay that. So from now on, I will play by the rules. I strongly advise you do the same. So in other words, sit back and let Chloe steal my life. If you kidnap her, they’ll send you back to Statesville, please. The cops in this town are too stupid to catch me, son. You’ll end up on the run just as you did before, and you’ll never see Rachel again.

Brady won’t let me see her. Because that manipulative girlfriend convinced him to cut me out of the picture that I’m not gonna stand for that Ralph. Mark my words. I will have my family back. I know how determined you are. Kristin. But I am equally determined to hold onto my freedom. So if you want to keep that mis lane and Brainwasher, you’ll have to do it without me.

Do you think Orpheus has access to a lab? Well, I don’t know why he wouldn’t. I mean, he has resources all over the world. Yeah. , he would probably have to be local to manage this. Well, you know what he and Ralph were? Pardon? On the same day. You think that crazy bastard is involved in this? Hey, he and Orff is teamed up before, huh?

Well, Ralph is known to engineer things like say twins. His most phenomenal achievement. You no doubt this reminds me of is when you were sick in South America. That was 25 years ago. I know, I know it. It’d be really bizarre coincidence, but I’m wondering if Mom and Kayla could have the exact same illness

town, please be reason. I have done enough for you already. Now, I beg you, leave me to my work. Expensive, isn’t it? Everything that you do here, uh, I’m guessing an infusion of cash to fund those grand ambitions of yours would be really. See you helped me with Chloe, and I’ll make it with you while you’re wasting your time, Kristin and mine.

But just think about what you can do with all that money. I mean, you’re already making incredible strides with your studies conditioning. You don’t want that to stop, do you? I have no intention of stopping. But I will not make Chloe Lane a subject, Janet rules. Now, how does it occur to you that, uh, maybe you’re dishonoring my father’s memory by being so ol with refusing to help me?

I mean, he would be appalled Ralph or. Perhaps he would respect that. I have far more important things to deal with than your love life, such as if you must know obvious broke in here and stole it. Toxin. So what? He’s back behind bars. It’s not like he can do anything with it. So that’s for your own Kristin, He already has,

I can’t believe Orfe did this. Dad warned me that he was a serious threat and stupid me. I accused him of being overprotective. Sorry. Should I find energy? Nope. Can’t help me. But having you here, that’s really lifting my spirits. You’re all I need. What about Joey and Trip right about them. We need to call them and let them know what’s going on.

No, not now. Mm-hmm. Mom, I know you don’t want them to worry. No, I don’t want your brothers jumping on a plane. They will as soon as they find out you’re in the hospital and no way you can stop them. But you could me. What do you mean you’re in pr? You could put a positive spin on this.

Hey man, Dave. So we just wanna wait to see Dr. Patel. Oh, I just talked to him. What’s the word? Oh, there’s no change. He said all they can do now is continue to treat the symptoms. Oh, come on then. Give us a break. Look, we just have to hope that the ISA will come through with some answers. Yeah, well I think I’m gonna go on down to the cop shop there and see what I can, I already tried that.

No. Hey, I went down there yesterday. I almost killed. What happened? Let me push my buttons until I lost it. If you go down there now, same thing will happen. It won’t help, man. Come on. We need something to go on. I have a feeling that someone is gonna crack this thing wide open real soon. Sir, you’re saying that CAS could have the same disease I.

All those years ago. Gosh. Just a hunt. But I think it’s worth exploring. Yeah. I mean, the circumstances couldn’t have been more different. I was undercover with the ISA on another continent. Yeah. And you were exposed to an extremely rare toxin causing a deadly infection. I think possibly the one we’re seeing today.

I mean, I, It does make a strange kind of sense, you know how so? Well, Orpheus’s vendetta began with you. I mean, he blames you for his wife’s. Targeted Steven John, but still he really seems to want you front and center. Well, he did seem to single me out when he stole into the pub after his burden. Yeah. You know, in his sick, twisted head using the same illness to kill the women that you love.

I mean, that would be poetic justice. So what do we do? Here’s what I wanna do. I wanna take a look at your medical records from back then, and I wanna compare them to moms and Marlena’s and Kayla’s. I still have privilege at the hospital. I just need to log into a computer, but I need your permission. You got it all.

I’m gonna head out, Mom. We’re gonna figure this out and you’re gonna be curative, whatever the hell this is. Okay? I love you. I love you. Bye pop. Bye. See you guys. Great.

Trust me. If I thought you needed to come, I would’ve booked your tickets by now, but it’s not necessary. Hold on. Joey wants to talk to, you

know what? One of mom’s doctors just walked in will call you right back. Yes. I promise.

Wow. Now I know why they pay you the big bucks. I can’t put them off forever. I know you hate lying to them and I do too, but I, It’s okay, mom,

but why didn’t you wanna talk to Joey? Because I don’t feel well, and I, he would hear in my voice and I, I just feel like I need to be strong for him and for your dad and I, Well, you don’t have to be strong for.

Hey Rex. Hey John. Howle, Steve. That’s good to see you. I wish you was under better circumstances. Look, I came down here cuz I have a hunch about what’s going on with my mom and Kayla and Marla. I just need to jump on a computer and take a look at some old medical records. I’m sure Kayla wouldn’t mind you using her office.

Thank you as much time as you need. I I do appreciate that. I’m not gonna be long cuz I know what I’m looking for. Anything that we can do, let’s stick around is my hunch is correct. I might nature. So you are saying that Orpheus stole this toxin and then used it to make these three women sick. Very sick.

So that’s what John meant, that the hearing when he said that Marla could be dying, I mean, is it really that bad? You of all people should not be surprised. It’s a severity of their illness. You’ve seen it. When it almost killed Roman Brady. Wait, you’re saying that these women have the same illness that Roman did 25 years ago?

That is precisely what I am saying, and if anything happens to them, I could be blamed since obvious stoles a toxin from me. Now you understand why I don’t have time for your ridiculous obsession with Chloe Lane.

I can still give you your birthday gifts, right? As a friend, Of course, Huh?

Oh, wow. Well, it’s very thoughtful of you. Thank you. You are very welcome. Should we have a toast? Isn’t it? A little bit early for champagne? Ah, I was anticipating that. So how does a mimosa sound? I know that actually does sound kind of good. Uhhuh. Uh, I think I have some champagne flute somewhere around here.

Great.

Ah, here they are. I haven’t used these in a while. Now. This is good. A time as ever. Right. Oh.

Hey, but any luck, these will be done before Capricorn season. Okay, well just make mine mostly oj. Okay. I’ll do just that

mostly oj thank you.

Mostly champagne,

Okay. All champagne. Toast. Two,

the most extraordinary woman I’ve ever met.

Hell’s going on here? Wow, Brady. After so much time, I would expect something more to the tune of Stephan. Great to see you. How amazing you’re alive. It’s amazing. It is amazing that you’re alive and I’m, I’m, I’m glad to see I’m not so glad seeing you sitting here with my girl drinking whatever you’re drinking.

Um, Mim Brady. It’s okay. Stephan knows that you and I are in a committed relationship and we were just establishing that we are friends. Yes. And I came by to wish my friend I happy birthday. We sure have. It’s your birthday, everything that’s been going on. I’ve, Chloe, I forgot it’s your it’s birthday. It’s so, it’s okay.

You know, I don’t like anyone making a big deal of No, it is a big deal. And I’m sorry. And we will do something fun tonight. We’re gonna do something. Okay? Sure. So Brady, I’d um, ask you to join us in a toast, but you still not drinking, Still not drinking. How about some orange juice? No, thanks. You know what I would like, I would love to get some alone time with my beautiful girl here, if that’s okay.

Yeah, sure. I’ll get outta your hair. Happy birthday, Chloe. And, uh, I’ll bus you sometimes soon.

That’s good.

So far no one knows I was in possession of that toxin, but if it were ever traced back to me, I’d be in a world of trouble. What the hell were you doing with it? Anyway, preserving it for research purposes. I never meant to hurt anyone, but you did. Rachel’s grandmother, and if anything happens, I mean Rachel would be devastated.

You saved Roman months. My father instructed you to come up with a cure.

We’re still in prison. He, he offered to trades a cure for his freedom. . Well, I remember when we brought John in hope to the lab and my father set up for you. He introduced me as a world or now scientist doing research as us could only dream up . Oh, he had me working on many projects that only his brilliant mind could conceive.

The top priority was the cure for Roman when you arrived. I had not yet perfected it. But you did. You cured this disease once before.

Can you do it again, Ralph?

Okay. You see, these are my dad’s lab results from back. Very similar to your wives and my moms, including the progression of the disease and the fact that it’s not contagious. Okay, well, what about the symptoms? Well, the symptoms that the women are experiencing are slightly different. And that you think we might be dealing with the same thing.

All I can tell you is that Orpheus infected Marlena and Kayla and Kate with a very rare toxin. I think the best way to treat this illness is the same way that we treated my dad’s and pray that it cheers them.

Making progress, father taking it one step at a time. The slow and steady wins the race, right, and make no mistake. I will win. He like you. Whenever I want something, I go after it with a vengeance

and I, Chloe Lane and I will not stop until she’s mine.

So the guy just showed up? He didn’t even call? No, he just showed up and said he wanted to wish me a happy birthday, Huh? Well, I’m sure he was very happy that I wasn’t here. And even happier knowing that I forgot you are birth threat. It’s okay. Don’t worry about it. All right. You have so much going on.

How’s Marlena doing? It’s not. My symptoms are getting worse. So Kate or Kayla, and if they don’t find a cure, Chloe, I don’t know. I mean, I don’t, I don’t,

I have such clear memories of you giving me ice chips when I had my tonsils out , and then we moved on to Orange Sherbert, which is still my. Of course we call it so bay. Now. Remember what else he used to do for me when I was sick neck. That’s right. Well, now I’m gonna do that for you. Just scooch over a little

that feels. To me too, a rare opportunity for me to take care of you.

I love you mom so much.

Just got a text from Rex. He’s into the hospital system. You know what? Our son is so smart, He’s so determined, and he loves you so much. Look, I have total confidence that he’s gonna be able to help you, I think. I hope so. I don’t know how much longer I can hold time. Katie, listen to man. Why don’t you give up?

Okay. Don’t you give, You gotta hang on for your kids for me. All right? Don’t you even think about giving up. I love you way too much to let you do that. So listen to me. Do not give up. Hang on, please. I.

I look exhausted. I have been working around the clock working on what? Roll. Please tell me I’ll do better than that. I’ll show you.

Saving Roman was, um, a bit more complicated than just filling a prescription by walking down to the corner pharmacy. That’s right. You, you went to the jungle. Right? That’s a fact. That’s exactly what hoping I did, and it was pure hell. But we got what we needed because we found that very rare orchid. And from it Ralph made the serum.

To secure. So what we need to do is get our hands on one of those orchids.

What is that? It is the key to bringing three women from the Bri of Death, Kate Roberts, Kayla Johnson, and ELNs. This can save their lives.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Walter: If anyone finds out that I played this recording for you… I could lose everything, okay? The contract that I have with the organization, I would be totally finished. You have to understand my–

Thomas: Walter, we appreciate it. And trust me, no one is ever going to find out, right, dad? Dad?

Ridge: Yeah, no one’s gonna find out. I can’t believe it was brooke.

Thomas: It’s obviously her, her voice, and she even said her name. Your wife called child protective services on me. She’s trying to take away my son.

Liam: Oh, boy. Just wait ’til hope finds out about this. Or does she already know?

Brooke: Oh, I don’t know. Not from me. She’s probably over at eric’s hearing all about it.

Liam: Well, yeah. She’s been spending a lot of time over there lately, with douglas and, of course, thomas.

Brooke: Right. Something neither of us is very thrilled about.

Liam: I mean, I get why it’s important for hope to know that douglas is okay. And she does. She always comes home saying that he’s having the best time. Which is why I don’t really understand– like, okay, like you and I, we have our issues with thomas, especially with this whole knife thing. But to think that somebody actually called C.P.S. On him.

Steffy: You and dad are meant to be. There’s a reason why you’ve never moved on. You never made it work with anybody else. Because dad is the one. He’s the only one.

Taylor: But that loyalty’s a bit one sided, don’t you think? He’s always going to be torn between me and brooke.

Steffy: That was dad a long time ago. He was talking about moving on, growing, being better. That’s not achievable with brooke. She makes him miserable. It’s one disappointment after the next. I see him with you, so much contentment in his eyes, it’s clear he loves you, mom. Don’t give up.

Taylor: You know, when you argue with reality, you lose… 100% of the time.

Steffy: Uh-huh.

Taylor: No, your dad is married to brooke. I cannot argue with that. That is reality. I’m not the homewrecker here.

Steffy: How many homes has she wrecked?

Taylor: Okay, that is brooke’s karma, not mine. Do I need to pull out my “two wrongs don’t make a right” speech? ‘Cause I will.

Steffy: Mom, I love you so much.

Taylor: Mm-hmm.

Steffy: You’re, like, so pretty. But sometimes I just wish–

Taylor: No, no more “sometimes…” when it comes to compromising my integrity.

Steffy: I understand that, I totally get that. I love your goodness, I really do. But, like, I know there’s a fire deep down inside… you just gotta, like, ignite it, and fight for dad. Don’t let brooke win again.

Liam: Do you think there’s more going on here? Like, whoever reported thomas actually knows something we don’t?

Brooke: Uh, it’s possible. But C.P.S. Didn’t find anything wrong. And ridge said that they did the check, and it went well, and they’re not taking any action.

Liam: Selfishly, I admit, I mean, there’s a part of me that wouldn’t hate it if somebody came in and basically told thomas, “listen, you’re not providing the safe environment you’re supposed to be as a father.” And maybe, maybe that would, like, shock him out of this whole full custody thing.

Brooke: Yes, that crossed my mind.

Liam: The truth is, in reality, that would be obviously terrible ’cause it would mean the situation over there is, in fact, dangerous enough that somebody had to step in for douglas’s sake. And so, I guess… yeah, no, I guess it’s, um, it’s a relief to know that whoever made that call was probably wrong.

Brooke: Wrong or not, thomas shouldn’t have douglas all the time.

Liam: Oh, yeah, no, no argument there. I mean, the kid needs to come home.

Brooke: He does. He needs to come back home to you, beth and hope. And away from thomas.

Ridge: Play it again.

Walter: Ridge–

Ridge: I need to be sure

Thomas: Dad, it was obviously–

Ridge: I– just, play it one more time, please.

Walter: Promise me you won’t say anything to anyone.

Receiver: Child protective

services.

Brooke: Hello.

I’d like to report

a child in danger.

His name is douglas forrester,

he’s at 369 willow hill road,

los angeles.

Please get there

as soon as possible.

His father,

thomas forrester, is unstable.

He has a knife.

Receiver: And your name,

ma’am?

Brooke: Brooke logan.

Please hurry.

Thomas: I, uh, I appreciate you doing that for us.

Walter: Wouldn’t do it for anyone else. But just, please, please…

Thomas: No, no, no, no. Between us, promise.

Walter: Thank you. Well, I’ll– I’ll let you process this. It’s good seeing you both. Wish it was under better circumstances.

Thomas: Yeah, me too.

Walter: Will your father be okay?

Thomas: Yeah, I’m sure that was just, uh, hard for him to hear. Appreciate it.

Walter: You got it.

Thomas: I’m sorry, dad. Did you know if you turn to cold with tide

Liam: We had such a good system going, you know, it was working. We had a routine.

Brooke: Yes, something kids need. And you and hope let thomas be a part of it. He spent a lot of time with douglas. I don’t know why he would want to disrupt that.

Liam: Well, I can’t think of a reason, to have access to hope. I mean, because it puts her in this awkward position, right? Where if she wants to spend any time with her son, she has to go over there and spend time with him. It’s kind of messed up, if you think about it.

Brooke: Yeah, that is messed up.

Liam: I mean, I– I’m trying to take hope’s word for it, when she says she’s got her eyes wide open, but also just based on her choices, it’s really hard to believe that hope… that she sees thomas for who he really is.

Brooke: I don’t think she does. And I definitely don’t think ridge does, or taylor, for that matter. I mean, she’s had a few conversations with her son and she thinks that he’s fixed. Come on. I think this is all because of taylor. You know, she came into town and she started fanning the flames, and she put this idea in thomas’s head that he wasn’t spending enough time with his son, and voila. It’s not about douglas at all. This is about taylor coming together with ridge. She just wanted to get ridge back. All she’s doing is trying to drive a wedge between ridge and me.

Taylor: I don’t want to have to fight for a life with your father, I shouldn’t have to fight. It’s time someone fought for me.

Steffy: I get that. But how is dad supposed to fight for you if you aren’t even here?

Taylor: Are you rescinding the aspen offer? ‘Cause that’s what it sounds like–

Steffy: Absolutely not, we are definitely going. I could, possibly, invite dad.

Taylor: Please don’T.

Steffy: I think you would have amazing memories.

Taylor: Okay, we have so many memories. Lots and lots of memories. See, the problem is, is that I got sucked into the idea of making more memories with him.

Steffy: There was a genuine connection between you two, when you got back to L.A.

Taylor: Yes. And that connection is the problem. That’s why I have to back away from ridge. I– I have to. He’s married to brooke.

Ridge: This doesn’t make sense.

Thomas: Well, yes and no. I mean, no, it doesn’t make any sense why brooke would do something like that, so hurtful to our family. It’s a huge slap in your face. I don’t see why anyone would do that to their husband. But, at the same time, I mean, she did say that she would do it. She said she’d call C.P.S. If she had to.

Ridge: She didn’t have to. She didn’t have to. Douglas is safe here, he’s always been safe. And I asked her. And you– you heard her, she denied it.

Thomas: She lied.

Ridge: I told her I would intervene, if there was ever a problem, I would be there, I would fix it, it would be okay. So, she wouldn’t, she wouldn’t have done that, she– she would have, she would’ve–

Thomas: You heard her, dad. We both did.

Ridge: She wouldn’t lie to me. She wouldn’t lie to me. Hi, I’m nancy.

Steffy: Sure, dad always ends up with brooke, until he doesn’t–

Taylor: Oh steffy…

Steffy: There’s gonna be a day when dad’s had enough, and I promise you, mom, that day is coming.

Steffy: I promise you.

Taylor: Do you know how many times I have told myself that? That this is certainly gonna be the day that ridge decides he wants more for himself.

Steffy: I know this is hard, and I know that you’re hurting.

Taylor: Yes, hurting, frustrated. And steffy, that is all on me. I’ve been a willing participant

Steffy: No, you know that dad loves you. He said it, he shows you.

Taylor: Yes, and then he goes home to brooke. Look, I’ve been very vocal about how wrong it was for brooke to interfere with my marriage– and not just mine. Your grandmother’s, her sister’s, her daughter’S… I’m gonna do something that brooke logan has never done. Respect a marriage. Even if I have to leave town to do it.

Liam: Well, look, just because C.P.S. Didn’t take any action, doesn’t mean there won’t be consequences, right? The fact that somebody had to show up at all, I mean, that could have an effect, right? Like that– that could be the ammunition that hope needs to convince thomas to change things up.

Brooke: Could be. I mean, I got to think that thomas is freaking out right now, right? Maybe ridge is, too. Who knows? I can only imagine how upset they both are.

Ridge: I just…

Thomas: It wasn’t an anonymous call. She even left her name.

[ Phone rings ]

Ridge: Steffy.

Thomas: Oh, put her on speaker.

Ridge: Steffy, hey, I’m here on speakerphone. I’m here with your brother.

Thomas: Hey steffy.

Steffy: Hey, thomas. Good. You guys can both hear me.

Ridge: What’s wrong?

Steffy: Yeah, I really need to talk to you. Mom’s on a work call, probably won’t be on long.

Ridge: Wait, is something going on with your mother?

Steffy: She wants to leave.

Ridge: Leave what? Your place?

Steffy: Los angeles.

Thomas: What? Why?

Steffy: Because it’s– it’s killing her, dad. Seeing you constantly, go back to brooke.

Thomas: Okay, well, you can’t let her go. You have to convince her to stay. She has every reason to stay.

Steffy: The thing is, she’s really down right now. So, maybe some time away, could be a good thing. Especially if I’m with her to make sure she comes back.

Thomas: Where would you go?

Steffy: Aspen.

Ridge: Aspen?

Steffy: Yeah, bill called me, said he was putting his house up for sale and that we could take a look at it. We’re gonna take his jet and go.

I mean, the timing is good. Mom wants the space, and I can try to convince her not to give up.

Ridge: Give up on what?

Steffy: On you, dad.

Mom is losing faith. She loves you. She’s not a homewrecker. But this is all just so confusing for her.

Ridge: It’s confusing for all of us.

Steffy: How is that

confusing for you? All brooke does is disappoint you.

Are you really gonna

choose her again? Look, mom’s coming, I gotta go. Please don’t give up on her.

Thomas: Mom’s in pain. She wants to leave town. You know, steffy and I have seen you go back and forth between our mom and brooke so many times. It’s painful for us, but it’s painful for her, too. I mean, lately, I know that you’ve been living over at brooke’s, but your heart has been with mom and our family. And that’s been amazing, hasn’t it? Don’t let mom lose faith in you. Don’t make her go through all of this suffering. Especially after what brooke did. Why give your family just any eggs

Steffy: I don’t like the idthe idea of you going away. But I understand it. If you feel as though it’s necessary then I’m coming with you.

Taylor: To babysit.

Steffy: You don’t need a babysitter. You need a daughter. Someone who cares about you and understands what you’re going through. And a daughter who gives, like, a really amazing pep-talk, remind you, to never give up on dad.

Taylor: Oh, god, okay, so that’s the real reason you want to tag along.

Steffy: Tag along? I’m pretty sure bill was the one who called moi. So, you’re the one tagging along.

Taylor: That is an excellent point. Honey, I know you think I’m running away. But I’m not, I’m just–

Steffy: No, I get it. Maybe some time away is exactly what you need.

Taylor: I think you’re right. I just need to– I need to get my head on straight. Because when I come back, brooke will still be your dad’s wife.

Brooke: Ridge was upset. He was very upset.

Liam: Well, I’m not surprised. Somebody calls child protective services on your son, that’s gonna do a number on ya.-You and I, we have our issues with thomas, but I– I’m not, I just– I wish I knew who made the call.

Brooke: I’m sure whoever did call, did it out of love and concern for douglas.

Liam: Yeah, yeah, probably… hopefully. It’s weird to think we may never know.

Brooke: Yeah.

Thomas: It doesn’t have to be this way, dad. You can choose a better life. You could be with someone that makes you laugh, lifts your spirits.

Ridge: I thought I had that with brooke.

Thomas: No, I literally can’t remember a time where it was like that with brooke. You can’t pretend that brooke is a person that she’s not.

Ridge: I don’t know what to do with this.

Thomas: This isn’t the first betrayal, dad. It’s not going to be the last

Ridge: We’ve forgiven each other for so many things. So many things. But this… trying to take your son away from you. Thomas, she wouldn’t lie to me, she wouldn’T.

Thomas: No. Brooke wouldn’t lie to you. Unless she’s trying to protect herself from something horrible she’s done. Oh, like she did when, uh, when she was drinking with deacon. Remember that? When she, she was kissing him and let him sleep in your bed. Or how about when she made out with bill?

Ridge: Thomas, stop,

Thomas: No, no, no. I actually have to say this. Can we dispel with the whole thing about brooke not lying? It’s literally the first thing she goes to. Mom tells the truth, right off the bat. But, brooke, the truth has to be pulled out of her. Trying to act like she’s not going to betray you. You mean, like, she betrayed you with uncle thorne or with your father? Look, I’m not saying this to hurt you. That’s the last thing I would ever want. I’m your son, I love you. I want to protect you, I want to protect mom, I want to protect our family. But stop acting like brooke deserves you. Brooke called child protective services on me. She’s trying to take away my son. You heard the recording, dad, it was her voice. She even said her name. It was brooke, dad. It was brooke.

Allie: The backyard looks beautiful. Everything’s so romantic.

Traci: I know that kyle and summer are just gonna love it, and that’s what matters today.

Noah: Babe, you have got to try this éclair. I saved you a bite.

Mariah: I love pastries as much as the next girl, but we have a lot to do.

Allie: Oh, my gosh, this is delicious. It’s super light.

Noah: Right? I think it’s the best I ever had.

Allie: Mm-hmm.

Traci: Mrs. Martinez picks them up at a little shop over on hill street.

Mariah: Okay, focus, people. There is a lot to do, and we have tasks to complete.

Noah: Chill. We got plenty of time.

Allie: What needs to be done, mariah?

Mariah: Uh, okay, well, somebody’s got to talk to the wedding planner and figure out the last-minute details, and also the flowers for the driveway haven’t been delivered yet.

Noah: Hey, trace, what’s the name of that bakery again?

Traci: It’s called hill street buns.

Mariah: Why are we talking about pastries?! There is a lot to do, so please listen to me.

Tessa: Hey, babe, relax. They’re just getting in the festive spirit.

Noah: Yeah, I’m all about the festive spirit.

Mariah: No. We’re gonna focus on that later, okay? I just need you guys to listen to me for two —

Kyle: No! Today’s a party. Let’s treat it like one. “We have tasks to complete”?

Mariah: What, was that too bossy?

Kyle: Yeah. Kinda. Lose the clipboard. Let’s have some fun.

Tessa: Yeah, I think that’s a great idea.

Kyle: Now let’s go see if there are more éclairs.

[ Laughter ]

Jack: Did someone say éclairs?

[ Doorbell rings ] Hello.

Nikki: Special delivery for the bride from forrester creations of los angeles.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness! Is that the dress?

Nikki: Yes.

Phyllis: Thank you, nikki. Thank you so much.

Nikki: Oh, you’re very welcome. I’m happy to do it.

Phyllis: Uh, so, summer’s getting ready. Do you want to join us?

Nikki: I’d love to, but i have to go home and get ready for the ceremony.

Jack: And I have some éclairs to sample. Bye.

Phyllis: Welcome back. I’d like to hear all about your trip — and I mean all of it.

Nikki: It was very successful.

[ Door opens ]

[ Knock on door ]

Diane: [ Sighs ] I don’t have time for this.

Tucker: [ Chuckling ] Wow.

Diane: Today is a big day.

Tucker: Yes, it is. It is. For everyone.

Diane: [ Sighs ] I told you to keep your distance for now.

Tucker: Oh, uh, do you not want people to see you with me?

Diane: No.

Tucker: Diane?

Diane: Stop! Stop it!

Tucker: In room 567?!

Diane: Could you stop it?

Tucker: You better let me in, diane!

Diane: Alright, get in.

Tucker: 567!

Diane: Just come in. God.

[ Exhales sharply ]

[ Door slams ] You have come at the worst possible time. Kyle and summer are renewing their vows today.

Tucker: Oh, that’s so sweet.

Diane: Yes, it is. I have dreamed of this moment. And I am so close to getting the trust and forgiveness that i came back to genoa city hoping to find. If the abbotts get one whiff of suspicion about our connection, it’s over for me.

Victoria: I think we’d be foolish not to obtain a majority stake in chancellor-winters when they go public.

Victor: Is the announcement being made soon?

Victoria: I don’t know the timeframe, but that’s what I’ve been told.

Nick: I still don’t like it.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Well, I think your objections are sentimental. They’re not based on our business interests.

Nick: That’s not true, vick. We’d be opening ourselves up to a major conflict with lily and devon, especially when they find out we got our information from nate, who stabbed them in the back.

Victoria: Well, I’m not afraid of a fight.

Nick: Are you prepared for the legal consequences of using nate’s insider information? You want to fight with the federal government?

Victoria: I think it’s worth the risk.

Victor: Son, conflicts like this, legal or otherwise, you know, carry a certain price with it. Question is, is nate hastings able to deliver what we want him to do?

Nate: Audra. How are you?

Audra: Good. Nice to see you.

Nate: Likewise. So, you are making progress on the ipo?

Audra: I have some questions for you before I answer that.

Nate: Sure. Um, hopefully I can be of some help.

Audra: Non-business-related.

Nate: Okay. Well, what would you like to know?

Audra: I mean, what is there to do in this town at night? I mean, this place seems to shut down once the office closes. It’s a ghost town. Is genoa city all work and no play?

Nate: Uh, there’s plenty of play here. You just have to know where to look.

Audra: Where do I begin?

Nate: Well, there’s a club that just opened up. It’s, uh — it has sort of a modern-art theme with a really cool vibe.

Audra: Hmm. I’d like to check it out. Maybe we can go there one night. I mean, since, you know, I’ll be in town for a while.

Devon: Elena.

Elena: Hey.

Devon: How you doing?

Elena: I’m good.

Devon: Yeah?

Elena: How are you doing?

Devon: Doing alright. Just been working away. I’m excited, though, that you get to finally start the podcast for chancellor-winters.

Elena: Thanks. I’m looking forward to it.

Devon: Yeah. I’m sure you’ve heard that, uh — that things have gotten better between me and nate since he’s come back to work. We straightened everything out.

Elena: Yeah. That’s great to hear.

Devon: I’m sure it wasn’t easy for him to admit that he stepped out of line and to ask for a second chance, but we’re all glad that he’s back.

Elena: I’m sure he’s happy to be back.

Devon: Uh, is everything okay?

Elena: Um… actually, no. Numbers move you.

Jack: I don’t remember these cufflinks being such trouble in your wedding in milan.

Kyle: Oh, I still struggled with them. I just didn’t know how to say “cufflink” in italian, so I kept it to myself. Since they were a gift from you, I figured you had a trick.

Jack: Well, unfortunately not. Maybe your grandfather did.

[ Groans ] Your grandfather would be very honored that you’re wearing these, so…

Kyle: Good, because I’m honored to wear them. I love that summer and I are doing this in the house where generations of abbotts lived. Makes me feel connected to the whole family, past and present.

Jack: Voil! The mere mention of your grandfather, and it’s fixed. I love that you care so much about family.

Kyle: Well, it’s what you taught me and what I intend to teach harrison. We stand by each other. We may disagree, we may fight like hell, but in the end, we always come back together.

Jack: I am so incredibly proud of you, so proud of the man you’ve become. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

Harrison: Daddy! Grandpa!

Jack: We were just talking about you!

Kyle: Oh, come here.

Jack: You know what today is, don’t you?

Harrison: We’re getting married again!

Jack: That’s right. And you have a very important job today, young man.

[ Chuckles ]

Phyllis: You know what? You’re a beautiful bride again.

Summer: You’re not gonna cry, are you?

Phyllis: No! No. Maybe. I don’t know. I may.

Summer: Good. You are the toughest woman i know, but you turn into a mushy pile of emotions so easily.

[ Chuckles ]

Phyllis: I’m really happy for you.

Summer: [ Breathes deeply ]

Phyllis: Your wedding in milan — it was gorgeous. But here it just seems like it’s the one that counts, you know?

Summer: Yeah. This is so different than our wedding in italy, isn’t it?

Phyllis: Yeah.

Summer: I mean, this is our home. This is where everything began for me and kyle. It feels right.

Phyllis: Yeah. I agree.

Summer: I just — I hope that there aren’t any distractions.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] What do you mean, summer?

Summer: I-I just don’t want anything to erupt between you and diane today.

Phyllis: Nothing is going to. I’m not gonna do anything. I’m not going to. And we promised that we would co-exist peacefully.

Summer: Yeah.

Phyllis: Nothing will happen today. Nothing. Hey, listen, nothing’s gonna ruin this day for you.

Tucker: I made your return to genoa city possible.

Diane: I’m aware of that.

Tucker: Are you? Because the way you’re treating me suggests otherwise. I expect a little more respect since I’m the one responsible for your chance at redemption. I gave you the key, diane. We had a deal.

Diane: And I’m sticking to it. I’m just asking for a little more time. I-I need to prepare. There are things that need to happen before you reveal yourself.

Tucker: You’re stalling.

Diane: No, I’m not.

Tucker: Today’s the perfect opportunity to make my presence known to the abbotts. They’ll be gathered there for the happy occasion.

Diane: What? No.

Tucker: And then — pfft!

Diane: No!

Tucker: It’s my time.

Diane: No, no, no, no, no. Just listen to me, please. You have to be patient.

Tucker: Relax. I won’t blow your cover. I’ll never reveal our connection, okay? Trust me. I got this.

Nate: I’m not so sure that’s a good idea. The two of us going clubbing and we’re supposed to be working together?

Audra: I don’t see the problem. I mean, what if I suggested a round of golf, okay? Would you object to that because we work together?

Nate: Probably not.

Audra: You see? There’s a double standard. No, people combine work and recreational activities all the time.

Nate: But going to a club has some dangers and temptations you’re not going to find on the golf course.

Audra: You’ve never seen me golf.

[ Both laugh ]

Nate: I suppose you’re right. But I am having some trouble envisioning you teeing off and playing 18 holes.

Audra: Well, if you’re gonna picture me at all, picture me with you at that club.

Nate: Uh, yeah, I don’t see us getting much work done.

Audra: On the contrary. You know, I think it would be a very progressive way of doing business. Think of it as taking team building to a whole new level.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] I’m sorry, audra. I can’T. I’m actually in a relationship.

Audra: Oh. I see.

Nate: [ Sighs ]

Devon: So, what’s the matter?

Elena: Honestly, it’s not even a big deal.

Devon: Okay. If it’s not a big deal, it should be easy to tell me then, right?

Elena: Okay. Um… nate’s transition into the corporate world has been… complicated for me.

Devon: How?

Elena: Well, at first it was fun seeing him take on new role and, you know, trying to prove himself.

Devon: Mm-hmm.

Elena: But now it’s — it’s like he’s a completely different person. And I know I must sound really dramatic.

Devon: No. No, I don’t think you sound dramatic. And I know what you mean. I mean, he’s been a doctor his whole life, and that’s the only thing you’ve known him as. Yeah, this whole corporate thing — it’s a very different animal. I’ve even wondered if he’s made the right decision. When he quit, half of me thought, “maybe this is the right move.”

Elena: Yeah. I had a similar feeling.

Devon: Well, you know we all want him to be a part of the family business, as long as it makes him happy and he’s fulfilled by it and he’s not just going through the motions.

Elena: You know, you have always been incredibly generous and forgiving to him. I hope that’ll continue.

Devon: Yeah, I mean, he’s family, so we stand by each other.

Elena: Of course. Well, you know what? I think I should probably get going.

Devon: Okay.

[ Card clatters ] Uh-oh.

Elena: Thanks.

Devon: Why do you have this? You stay in a hotel?

Elena: Yeah. For a while.

Devon: Why are you staying at a hotel? Are you and nate fighting?

Elena: I really should get going. I’ll talk to you soon.

Victoria: I believe that nate has all of the incentive in the world to cooperate with us, given that I’m gonna put him in charge of chancellor-winters once we obtain a majority share. And I think that nate will handle the situation with care and grace.

Nick: So, you think nate can gracefully convince lily and devon that he’s a team player, even though he betrayed them?

Victor: Son, there will be ruffled feathers once we have made the offer, alright? But you must remember that chancellor-winters will be stronger and more profitable. And they’ll be backed up by newman enterprises.

Nick: But they won’t be independent. The people who lead the company won’t be calling any of the shots.

Victor: But that’s their problem. They made the ipo. Let them deal with it.

Nick: Well, as far as lily and devon know, they structured the ipo so their family would retain controlling interests.

Victoria: It was up them to consider every possible scenario. Nate has every right to sell his shares to us.

Nick: Well, you both know how I feel about this. Uh, I’m done talking about it. I got to go and watch summer and kyle renew their vows.

Victor: Give them our love, okay?

Nick: Well, you two have at it. I’m out of here.

Victor: Alright, son. You know, this offer is gonna be financially risky and complicated.

Victoria: I can handle it, dad.

Victor: I know you can. But I want you to go to the renewal ceremony, alright? I will handle things.

Victoria: Don’t you want to go?

Victor: Are you serious? Do you honestly think I want to spend an afternoon at a party given by jack abbott? Better things to do. I’m going to chicago to sort out the finances, alright?

Victor: Okay. Well, I guess it would be bad form if neither one of us showed up. So, you handle the money, and i will fulfill our family obligation.

Victor: It’s a deal, my darling.

Nikki: Well, hello, family!

Victor: Well, look who’s there.

Victoria: Hi, mother. How was your trip to L.A.?

Victor: My goodness.

Nikki: It was lovely. Our friends at forrester designed a beautiful dress for summer to wear today. I dropped it off on the way from the airport.

Victoria: And what about your main reason for the trip?

Nikki: I’ll fill you in later. Right now, your father and i have to get ready for the ceremony.

Victor: I’m not going.

Nikki: Why?

Victor: “Why?”

Nikki: Because jack is hosting it?

Victor: Of course.

Victoria: Well, that’s what he says, but he’s also gonna take care of a business thing for me. So, I’ll see you there.

Nikki: Alright, darling.

Victoria: Okay.

Victor: Come here, my sweet baby. I’m so happy to have you back.

Nikki: Mm. I’m happy to be back.

Victor: Oh, my goodness. So, tell me about deacon sharpe. What did he tell you about diane jenkins’ time in L.A.? Hi, I’m karen.

[ Laughter ]

Devon: Well, hey, you two.

Nate: Hey.

Devon: I must have missed the memo for the meeting today. You guys look like you’re being protective.

Nate: Uh, that would be audra here. I stopped in for some breakfast.

Devon: Oh. So, you guys just ran into each other?

Audra: Nate came in here looking for some eggs florentine, and I’ve been pestering him for things to do in town.

Nate: And no, cousin, i wasn’t much help. I don’t exactly have my finger on the pulse of nightlife here, especially with the work schedules elena and I have.

Audra: And I think that’s a shame. I mean, you have to mix things up, nate. You can’t work 24 hours a day.

Nate: [ Chuckles ]

Nikki: Seeing deacon was as unpleasant as expected. He has not changed.

Victor: Did you confront him about helping diane jenkins fake her own death?

Nikki: Yeah, yeah, but i didn’t really get much satisfaction out of it.

Victor: Well, did he apologize?

Nikki: He tried, but you know people like him — they never truly apologize, even as the words “I’m sorry” are coming out of their mouths.

Victor: Yeah, true, true.

Nikki: But I did get some new information. It seems that diane had a much more luxurious life in california than she led us to believe.

Victor: Huh.

Nikki: She was being chauffeured around in a bentley.

Victor: Really?

Nikki: Mm-hmm. Deacon had a photo.

Victor: Ah. Let’s have a look here.

Nikki: Now, granted, it’s not a great photo, but at least you can see the license-plate number.

Victor: Oh, wait a minute now. This is not a car that would belong to a mid-level real-estate agent.

Nikki: No, it is not. And deacon says that occasionally he would see her riding around with a man.

Victor: Who?

Nikki: Well, he didn’t know that. But I found out that this car is owned by a company named private image limited. They’re based in london, but they have a branch in los angeles, and the business is entertainment and art-related. That’s all I could find out.

Victor: Uh-huh. I’ll have my people find out more if they can, okay? But I’ve got to tell you, my sweetheart, the fact that you’ve found out as much as you have in such a short period of time from deacon sharpe — that’s impressive.

Nikki: But more importantly, it shows that diane is clearly hiding something.

Diane: Hi. I didn’t realize the groom was on door-answering duty.

Kyle: Come in. Come in. Everyone else is too busy listening to maria’s orders.

Diane: Ah. Oh, kyle, I am so happy for you and summer. I-I just can’t believe I’m here to witness this.

Kyle: It’s all the more special with you here.

Diane: Mm!

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

Diane: Oh, here.

Kyle: Oh, you didn’t have to.

Diane: Ohh!

Kyle: Come on. Come see everybody.

Traci: [ Laughing ] Ah! Nick, hi!

Nick: Hello.

Traci: Mwah! Come in, honey.

Nick: Thank you. I ran into a delivery guy coming up the driveway. I took this off his hands. I’m pretty sure it’s from ashley.

Traci: Oh. Thank you. Wow. Yeah, she got stuck in paris, and she’s not gonna be able to be here today.

Nick: Oh, that’s too bad.

Traci: Yeah. Ohh! You’re looking for a tip, I’ll bet.

Nick: I mean, a little something for the effort would be nice.

Traci: I’m gonna have to pay you in pastries. But bad news — noah ate all the éclairs.

Nick: Ugh. That kid. Sounds about right.

Traci: [ Chuckling ] Come on.

Phyllis: Hey, look at you.

Nick: No, no, no.

Phyllis: You look sharp.

Nick: Let’s look at you.

Phyllis: Thanks.

Nick: Wow.

Phyllis: You look very handsome.

Nick: Well, it’s a big occasion. It’s not every day your girl marries the love of her life, although it does seem like it’s happening once a year.

Phyllis: Yeah. Yeah. Are you ready to do this again?

Nick: Look, I’m very happy kyle decided to have the ceremony here, so I’m willing to get emotional again. I will do anything for that girl.

Phyllis: Are you okay with how it’s going down? I mean, are you okay with not walking down the aisle?

Nick: Totally fine with what they have planned.

Phyllis: Okay. You know, we made a lot of mistakes. But one thing we did right was summer. She’s an incredible girl — and mainly because you’ve been an incredible father.

Nick: I think most of the credit goes to you. I mean, she is more and more like you every day.

Phyllis: Oh, god, I hope so.

Nick: [ Laughs ]

Phyllis: Gosh.

Nick: She’s lucky to have you. You’re an amazing mother.

Phyllis: Thank you.

Nick: So, I hear there’s some pastries. I’m just gonna go introduce myself to them.

Kyle: Excuse me.

Jack: Hey.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

[ Silverware clinking ]

Diane: Hello, jack.

Jack: Diane. Good to see you.

Diane: Yeah, the place looks lovely.

Jack: Yeah, allie and traci did quite a job.

Diane: Well, it’s nice to see ali fitting in so well with the abbotts.

Jack: Oh, she has been a real joy. It’s funny how quickly she’s become an integral part of a family.

Diane: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: I guess we’ve all come a long way in the last few months.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Jack, I want to apologize again for what happened the other night. No, no, no, I — I overstepped. And I — I really shouldn’t have kissed you.

Jack: It’s okay.

Diane: I’ve just been feeling so disconnected from other people and a bit despondent. And I-I should not have put you in that position. But I did feel a connection between us, and I — I guess I just got caught up in the moment. For people who are a little intense about hydration.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

[Sfx: Stomach gurgling]

Billy: Okay. Everything is good to go. I’m gonna head to the house for the ceremony. Are you sure you’re not coming?

Lily: I can’T. I really have, like, a couple dozen things to do here. You keep looking at your phone. Is everything okay?

Billy: Yeah, I guess. Kind of. [ Chuckles ] I’m a little worried about chelsea, to be honest. I’m really second-guessing the way that I have handled this whole johnny situation. I don’t know if telling him that chelsea is his biological mother was the right thing to do. And, you know, it just did not go the way that we hoped at all.

Lily: Billy, you really can’t blame yourself.

Billy: I know. But it is gnawing at me.

[ Knock on door ]

Devon: Hey. Excuse me. Do you have a second to talk?

Lily: Um, yeah, sure.

Devon: Yeah?

Billy: I got to get going, alright? You give me a kiss.

Lily: Okay.

Billy: Mwah!

Lily: Tell summer and kyle i said congratulations.

Billy: I will. I’ll talk to you soon. Later, devon.

Devon: Good to see you, man.

Lily: Uh, what’s going on?

Devon: Uh, I wanted to talk about, uh, nate and audra.

Lily: What about them?

Devon: Well, I’ve noticed that they’ve been spending a lot of time together lately outside the office. And I just ran into elena, and she and nate have been having problems to the point where she’s now staying in a hotel.

Lily: Okay. Um… I mean, I don’t think that’s really any of our business.

Devon: Well, I’m gonna tell you why I bring it up. Elena has been nate’s voice of reason throughout this whole transition into the corporate world. And with everything that’s happened lately, with him quitting and coming back to work, I feel like he needs her positive influence more than ever ’cause there’s a lot riding on this ipo. And I would love for nate to be in a good headspace.

Lily: Devon, look, I —

[ Sighs ] I really think that you need to have more faith in nate. I mean, he seems determined to make the most of his role here.

Noah: And then after the ceremony, let’s play some chill background music.

Tessa: Yeah.

Traci: Well, it looks like allie and I have finished everything on our list. How about you, mariah? How’s the clipboard?

Mariah: Let me see. Check…check, check. I — I think we’re ready.

[ Chuckles ]

Traci: Oh, that’s awesome. Okay, so, I guess all we have to do is turn everything over to the officiant, and then we can relax. So, who is it?

Tessa: That is a great question.

Traci: You — you have someone, don’t you?

Noah: Well, I wanted to do it, so I asked kyle and my sister.

Tessa: And kyle officiated our wedding, so we asked him if we could.

Traci: Well, what did they say?

Mariah: They said we need to figure it out amongst ourselves.

Noah: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: It’s no big deal. You misread the situation, that’s all.

Diane: I realize that now.

Jack: You read more into my words of encouragement than maybe I intended, and I really just wanted to tell you I think you’re doing a wonderful job rebuilding your life here. You’ve worked very hard, and i think you should be proud of that.

Diane: Thank you.

Jack: I also admire that you’ve taken ownership of your mistakes. You do know some people are never going to forgive that.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Yes, and I’m glad you’re not one of them. You’ve given me a chance to prove myself, and I just — i just don’t want to let what happened the other night get between us.

Jack: We’re fine. I promise.

Diane: Because the connection that we do share as grandparents and parents — that means everything to me. And I-I just — I don’t want to jeopardize that.

Jack: You won’T.

Diane: Okay.

Jack: Well, now that we’ve covered that, maybe — maybe we should head inside.

Diane: [ Chuckles ] Smooth dark chocolate, refreshing peppermint,

Audra: Look, I love spinach. I just don’t want it near my eggs.

Nate: You do not know what you’re missing.

Audra: What’s wrong with a nice denver omelet?

[ Both laugh ]

Devon: Hey.

Audra: Hey.

Devon: I am running into you two everywhere. Look at that.

Audra: I thought lily and billy would be here.

Devon: Billy had to go to a family event, and lily went up to legal to get some clarification on regulations for the ipo.

Nate: What’s she concerned about?

Devon: She didn’t say. I don’t think it’s anything serious, though.

Audra: Does she need me there?

Devon: Uh, no, I’m sure she’ll keep you in the loop, but for now it’s just the three of us.

Nate: You know, uh, I’ve been thinking about the ipo. Should we drop the price a bit? Maybe like 5%, something like that?

Devon: Why? Why do you think we should do that? I think it’s priced just fine.

Nate: A discount could spur some early movement. It could lead to a feeding frenzy, which ultimately drives up the price.

Audra: I agree with devon. I mean, the current valuation is right in the sweet spot. We don’t want to go any lower and give the impression it’s some kind of bargain-basement stock.

Devon: Well, there you go. I’m glad you feel that way.

Audra: Yeah. Hey, I’m gonna go check in with lily in legal just to make sure I’m up to date. I’ll see you later.

Devon: Sounds good. So, man, how’s everything going with you?

Nate: Uh, what do you mean?

Devon: I’m just wondering how you’ve been. How are things with you and elena?

Nate: There’s some tension. She’s upset with me. She thought I let things get out of hand with you, and she’s taking some time to herself. But we’ll work things out.

Devon: Well, that’s good to hear.

Phyllis: I just got a call from abby. Dominic is sick. It’s nothing serious, but they can’t make it.

Jack: Oh, I’m sorry abby and chance won’t be here. Aww.

Phyllis: I know, but our kids come first, right?

Jack: Yeah, that’s right.

Phyllis: Mm-hmm.

Jack: Well, I have to head inside. If you’ll excuse me.

Phyllis: My daughter expressed concerns about us having a potential blow-up today.

Diane: Well, I don’t know why she’d be worried about that.

Phyllis: I don’t, either.

Diane: Yeah.

Phyllis: Nothing would ever spoil our kids’ day, right?

Diane: Right. Like you said, our kids and their happiness comes first.

Nick: You ready to do this again? I mean, it’s not too late. You could change your mind.

Summer: [ Chuckles ] That would be surprising. Just kick kyle to the curb after a year of marriage?

[ Chuckles ]

Nick: I mean, it’s an option.

Summer: I think I’ll keep him around. My question is, though, are you sure you’re okay with not walking me down the aisle?

Nick: Yeah. Your mom asked me the same thing. I’m totally fine. I still get to be the ridiculously proud father of the bride, which I am. When I see you so happy and loved, I couldn’t be more proud of you.

Summer: Thanks, dad.

Nick: You’re a newman. You’re tougher than people think. I mean, look at what you’ve been through. You were born in an elevator. You survived a coma. You beat all of that, with all the ups and downs with kyle. But look at you now — the head designer of your own chic fashion house, happily married, raising a family. In honor of today, I, uh — I got you a little something.

Summer: My gosh. That is beautiful.

Nick: Now, everybody is gonna think the “s” stands for summer. But you and I know what it really stands for.

Summer: Supergirl.

Nick: That’s right. You’re always gonna be my supergirl. I love you so much.

Summer: I love you, too, dad.

[ Inhales deeply ]

Jack: Hey, little brother. I’m glad you could make it.

Traci: Oh!

Billy: Look at this. Look at this place. Doesn’t it look amazing with all these people in here?

Jack: Isn’t it great?

Traci: It feels pretty good, doesn’t it?

Billy: Feels like old times, doesn’t it? Hey, diane.

Jack: Hey.

Billy: It’s really nice to see you here.

Diane: Oh, well, thank you, billy. That’s really kind.

Billy: If you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go find the man of the hour and wish him luck.

Traci: [ Chuckles ]

Diane: I was just going to say, I’ll make sure harrison’s ready.

Jack: Oh, no, I can take care of that.

Diane: Oh, no, no, no, no. You enjoy your guests, and i will keep him busy until the big event.

Jack: Thanks.

Diane: Mm-hmm.

Traci: Oh! Victoria! Nikki!

Nikki: Hello!

Traci: Thank you so much for coming.

Victoria: Hello. I’m so sorry that I missed summer and kyle’s wedding in milan, so I’m grateful to have a second chance.

Nikki: And victor would have loved to have been here, but he couldn’t come —

Jack: But he won’T…be here. You don’t have to explain. We know.

Phyllis: Ah. Hey, nikki. Can I steal nikki away? I need to talk to you about summer’s dress.

Nikki: Oh. Excuse me.

Victoria: This is beautiful.

Phyllis: Hey. So, um, diane is here.

Nikki: Yeah, I know. I saw her.

Phyllis: Yeah. She keeps on insinuating herself into this family, playing the reformed sinner. I mean…

Nikki: It’s total sham. She has to be stopped, nikki. I hope — I so hope you found something in L.A.

Nikki: I have proof that she has been lying about her time there.

Noah: Alright, everybody it is approaching that time, so if you could please make your way to the backyard, the ceremony will begin soon.

Jack: Thanks. Ladies.

Traci: Oh, here we go.

Victoria: Jack. Thank you.

Nikki: A reckoning is coming. Want your clothes to smell freshly

Mariah: Welcome, everybody. If you could please take your seats.

Tessa: Thank you so much for joining us today.

Noah: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to kyle and summer’s renewal of their wedding vows.

[ Applause ] So, the bride and the groom — they left it up to the three of us to decide who would be officiating today.

Mariah: And each of us had a pretty good claim for why we deserved the job.

Tessa: So we argued and fought and argued some more.

Noah: And the conclusion that we came up with is…

Mariah: All three of us are going to do it.

[ Laughter ]

Tessa: We figured a love as big and strong as summer and kyle’s could handle three officiants.

[ Applause ]

Kyle: I’m glad this is the arrangement you agreed on — the three of you. I love it.

Diane: Okay, it’s your turn. Come on. Stand up. Alright. You go do your thing.

[ Laughter ]

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Mariah: Kyle and summer, please join hands.

Noah: Dearly beloved…

Tessa: Friends and family…

Mariah: We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life’s most rewarding moments.

Next week on

“the young and the restless”…

[ Cheers and applause ]

Mariah: [ Laughs ]

[ Wind whipping ]

[ Helicopter blades whirring ]

[ Wind and whirring continue ]

Esther: Are you offering me a job?

Devon: I absolutely am offering you a job, yes.

Audra: Noah? It’s been a long time.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

It looks like you’ve been up all night . I have been. Actually took him an entire night to determine that you shooting Clyde Weston was justified. They also wanted to question us about why we weren’t exactly eager to offer aid to Western afterwards. Helped the man who tried to kill our. Helped the man who murdered Abigail and cold blood.

Really, I’m glad to see you share our sense of family loyalty. Well, look, Chad and I may not be on the best of terms right now, but he still a damara and last night you saved his life and you brought Abigail’s killer to justice and for that I am profoundly grateful. I know Abigail was very dear to. Yeah, I, uh,

thought I loved her. Once turned out it was just an obsession.

No, you know what? I didn’t know what love was telling my Chloe Lane.

Oh my God, Gabby, I’ve just heard the. Uh, By what? Clyde Wilson. Yeah. It’s crazy. No. About Steph and Damara. Is it true that he’s really alive?

Oh.

Are you looking at?

Like sand through the hour class. So are the days of,

it looks like you lost your blanket.

So, um, did you sleep okay? Uh, you know, there’s this thing called air conditioning. You and I should look into it. Good morning, sis. Hello Johnny. And goodbye.

Yeah, yeah, it’s true. Stephan’s. You know that for a fact. Yeah, I saw him and the demer crept my own eyes. Oh my God, Gabby, that’s amazing. Aren’t you so happy? Wait a minute. So when I thought that I was hallucinating my dead husband, I was actually seeing your dead husband who turns out not to really be dead after all , which means I’m not crazy.

Yeah, I’m not so sure about that.

Abby,

there’s so much that I wanna say to you.

I just dunno where to start. I do.

Well, the first time you saw Jake was at the Mansion, remember? Yeah. How would I forget I passed out cold, right? And Lee caught you. He says he didn’t see anything out of the ordinary. He would’ve seen Stephan had he actually been. Oh, so you’re telling me that the first time I saw Jake, I was hallucinating, and the second time I saw Stephan come on.

What are the odds of that? Look, whatever really happened, it’s better for both of us if you’re not crazy. Well, on that, we agree. Yeah, I need you at peak sanity so that Lee’s father can restore your rights as a voting shareholder. And you know, Stephen’s trying to take away my Dera shares for me. Okay, Wait.

Why? Why would he do that? He’s your husband. You are the love of his life. Not anymore. Okay. I don’t get this. Neither do I. He claims he never love me, and he sures hell doesn’t love me now

Chloe and I never got the chance. To see what would happen between us because, Well, Gabby, right? Gabby Hernandez is a duplicitous low life, and I’m glad you agree that she needs to be ousted from Damira. Of course. But you did mention that even if I got my shares back, Might not be enough. There’s still a chance that Shin could restore Ava AL’S voting rights to be sar.

We need someone to switch sides and I think maybe Johnny could be switchable. Johnny might need to switch sides. You mean to tell me your own son voted against you? He’s in Ava Batali’s throw. And as much as it goals me, my threats have only driven him further into her arms. Careful, brother, you need to think strategically.

I am. Now I’m going to see Johnny and Ava hat in my hand and express my heartfelt attrition. You’re gonna lie exactly. And if I do a good enough job, then maybe I could get both. What outside? Goodbye. What? What do you mean goodbye? I told you you could crash here for a night. It’s been two. Okay. I haven’t found a new place yet.

Jen. Whose fault is that? Do you know what the rents are like? The market is crazy. Okay, So go spend the night at the Salem in and don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Wow. Way to treat your favorite twin. I can’t do it anymore. All right. You make more of a mess around here than Henry. You’re leaving dirty dishes in the sink.

You’re, you’re leaving sweat stains on my couch because you’re always laying around half Maybe. Maybe you could do something about the AC and if maybe you could stop trying to be provocative towards chinette. It was hot and I’m not Provo. What? Are you taking his side? No, I’m not. I’m just saying what is a few more days on the couch until he finds a place to stay?

Unless of course you are worried that. Chanel nights succumb to the powerful sexual chemistry that the two of us have always had.

Why? Why, why? Why are you here now? Because after all these months, I’m trying to find my killer. You finally have, and I’d like to know how you feel. Oh. How I feel.

I thought I would feel relieved. God, that’s so determined to get justice for you. That’s all I cared about and now that I have, now that we know who, who took you from us?

I just, I feel empty inside.

It’s just, I, I don’t know what I’m living for.

This is dizzy. Keeping track of everybody’s evolving relationships. I think it’ll be disorienting for anyone, especially those who’ve been dead for four years. , I’ll get the hang of it eventually, as soon as they get my life legs back. . Do you have any idea why a wolf kept you on ice for so long? Aside from the hard thing?

Not at one. You know anyone else who may have been involved? I gather Kristin played some sort of role. Yeah, Yeah. Yeah. Are you aware of anyone else,

Mr. Shin? Uh, I wasn’t expecting you, uh, come in. I’m assuming this is about basic black. Actually, no. I was passing your door and thought I’d stop in and see how you and your family are doing, doing. That’s very kind of you. Such a horrible ordeal with Clyde Weston last night, right? Especially for your mother.

What a dreadful thing to have happen on her wedding day and Well, now that Gabby and I are engaged, I have to admit that every time I hear a nightmare wedding scenario, I break into a cold sweat . Especially now that we’ve learned that Gabby’s dead husband, Stephan, is alive. So EJ and Stephan were here to announce that they’re petitioning to have my shares returned to Stephan.

Can you believe it? Hmm. Well, to be fair, they were Stephan’s shares to begin with, right? I mean, you only had them because you were his widow, which it turns out now you’re not. Okay. Whose side are. Well since we share common interest yours for the time being. Good. Good. Because if Lee’s father is able to restore your rights to vote, then he can’t unseat me.

Even if Stephan reclaims his shares, they can’t boot me a ceo. Ah, well I hope now, cuz I certainly don’t want my first day on the job to be my last. Don’t worry. Still have six votes with you and Johnny now that he’s on our. Actually what? Actually what? Well, I’m not so sure we can still count on Johnny’s boat.

Believe me, I am not worried about losing Chanel to you. They’re fooled me. Uh, hello Girlfriend who can speak for herself is actually in the room. I am just responding to his idiotic suggestion that I am jealous when the real reason that I want him out is because I am tired of your smelly naked body taking up all the room in my apartment.

Oh. Do I smell? Yes, you do smell. So go take a shower and then get out. No. Fine, fine. Okay, I’m going Just relax. Would.

He’s so infuriating. Just walking around with that arrogant little smirk and thinking he’s so adorable. Checking himself out in all the mirrors, you know, He’s just pressing your buttons. Hey, you don’t really think you have anything to be jealous of? Me and Johnny, do you? I just got through saying I’m not jealous, Weren’t you?

Okay. Okay. I will admit that I. I have been a little bit thrown off, but it took you weeks to decide which one of us you wanted to be with, John or me, and now it seems like you’re totally fine with him staying here for God knows how long, laying on the couch in his teeny tiny little baby underwear. So I don’t know.

Do I have a reason to be jealous? You tell me. Dupree

Nancy. Ma’am, Mr. Weston’s not allowed any visitors. It’s all right. I, I spoke to, um, Commissioner Hernandez and he said it would be all right. I’m not gonna stay long.

I just wanna know one thing. Pride was anything between. Ever real? Did you ever really love me?

Well, I told you I loved you, Nancy, time and again.

Yes, you did.

And I don’t know why I, uh, even care now, except I thought it might help me to better understand why I got involved with you in the first place. You do anything that helps you. The thing is, and I, I didn’t really see it at the time, but I, I was really messed up after losing Craig. I, I just needed somebody, anybody hate me, feel desirable and there you were.

And crying, even after you were arrested for possessing Abigail’s jewelry, I still believed your lies. That’s how much, that’s how much I needed you and how the very word needy makes me cringed. Yeah, I get that.

Now I just have a one question, since I know the truth. Fire away. You killed Abigail Damira and you tried to kill Sonus.

Clay. Would I have been next? What do I need to do? You need to let go of your anger. You guilt Cause there’s only one person responsible for what happened. And that’s Clyde Weston. But I knew he was on parole. I should have been more careful. I should have protected you. I lived in so much terror after everything that Ben Weston did to me was always looking over my shoulder, everywhere I went.

And I didn’t want that. There’s no way to live. Neither is this. You’re right, it’s not. You almost died last night. Is that what you want? Maybe. Cause I could with you honey. It’s not your choice to make. Oh, maybe it should be. I don’t how to go on,

Don’t I? Can you have to.

It was quite a shock to learn that Stephan is still. I understand he claims he still has feelings for you. That’s what he said. Yes. So you saw him? I did. And it was surreal. He also doesn’t wanna believe that there’s no hope for us. Hmm. Are you quite certain of that? He is. Fascinating, charismatic man from a prominent family.

Hmm. While I already have a fascinating charismatic man whom I love with my whole heart, and even if I wasn’t in a relationship with Brady, I have a hard time going back to Stefan after he cheated on me with Gabby. Now, I’m pretty sure that that’s not what you wanted to hear, but if you’re thinking that I can keep Stephan away from Gabby, then.

That’s not gonna happen, . Well, thank you for your candor. Well, I’ve taken up enough of your time. Best wishes to your mother and you and Brady, and you and Gabby.

Anybody working with Dr. Off?

Man,

it’s all so hazy.

Finally, it seems those stock shares are officially yours for the taking. Mm. Let’s go retrieve them from Gary, Shall we?

I wish I could have seen E j’s face. I mean, thinking that you and his renegade son had done the nasty. Yes. Well, it was very satisfying to be hold, let me tell you. And then EJ promptly kicked me out of the mansion, no surprise there. And Johnny decided to come with me just to stick it through his father.

So we went to the Salem in, spent the night. He slept on the floor. Oh really? Instead of his four poster king size bed with the 2000 Fred count sheets. Yep. No posters, no sheets, but um, you know, we’re still on good terms. The truth is, when I kicked him out, he felt really bad and I. I actually missed him.

Great. Fantastic. Go. Go find him. Go wrap your arms and everything else around him and then tell him that you’ve changed your mind, that you actually do wanna sleep with him. Are we seriously doing this again? You know, I’m committed to you. I sometimes have my doubts. Ally, come off. Come on. What? When you finally chose me over, Johnny, you admitted that you still had feelings for him.

Yeah. And I also admitted that my feelings for you were deeper. I made my choice and I’m not looking back, but it’s difficult for me when it seems like you don’t trust me. Okay? I am washed and smelling sweet. Oh God. You ever wear clothes? Donnie, would you please stop torturing your sister? What? I’m not torturing my lovely and loyal sister.

I’m simply obeying her orders to get the hell out of her apartment. So I’m gonna go put my clothes on and leave, but, But where will you. I don’t know. I’ll figure it out and, and thank you for your hospitality.

Hey Johnny. Hey yourself. But you still haven’t found a place to stay. Uh, yeah, I was staying at my sisters for a couple days, but, uh, I think I overstay my welcome. So, yeah, it’s not very sisterly. Yeah. Well, I think you know my family well enough by now to know that we are, um, complicated. Hmm, that’s true. So where are you gonna go now?

I don’t know. I guess I should probably find an apartment, get a job. In a life, um, not, not necessarily in that order, but

why don’t you just start by coming back to the Salem. End with me.

Morning. Hi, um, I missed you last night. I stayed at Res. Thank you far giving me some time. No thanks. Necessary. I know it’s a lot for you to process getting engaged and then finding out that same day that your husband’s back from the dead. I know it must not be easy for you either. Lee, you can be patient.

Gabby, you’re worth it. I still love you. I still want to marry you and I’m hoping you feel the same way.

Stephan.

Oh, you here to take back your, uh, stock shares? What’s this? Oh, you didn’t hear Stephan and uh, ej. They’re teaming up to O me as ceo. No, I didn’t hear, I had no idea. Who’s your brother? You know, I’m sure he wouldn’t wanna miss a minute of. He’s taking care of some paperwork. There’s something I wanted to say to you before why I’ve had some time to think since our last meeting.

Things are a little more clear in my mind, something I need to say to you.

Well, you know, I never claimed to be one of the good guys. , but I swear I wanted to be a better man for you, and I want you to know you’re a special person. In fact, since I’ve been lying here in the hospital, you’re the one I think of most, how I hurt you,

how I wished I.

I wonder,

is there any way you could forgive me?

You gotta go on living.

I mean, what would’ve happened to our kids if they’d lost both their mother and their father? Oh my.

I know. You’re suffer. But please try to remember all. You have to be grateful for all you have to live for, especially our precious Thomas and Charlotte

and all of the memories that you have of us.

I wish we could have made.

But every day, every hour, every second that I spent loving you is more precious to me than if I had lived a hundred years without you.

The greatest gift that you could give to me is to live your life. Define joy again. To find love again. No, there is never gonna be anyone else. There’s only you. You might feel that way right now, but you won’t forever. And if you won’t move on for yourself, then do it for me. So you want me to come back and stay at the end with you?

On what terms? Do we have to put a label on it? ? Is there an it to label? You’re pretty definite about me leaving, so, yeah. Well, maybe I was a little hasty. I don’t know. Just it feels like faith that I just ran hand you now. So you wanna come up and put your bag down upstairs? Huh? Come on. What do you see?

What is it? Stephan? What do you remember? My feelings for Chloe? Chloe doesn’t want you. She will. Once I remind her what we were to each other, Chloe’s in a serious relationship. She’s with Brady now. I’m aware of that, but I’m not giving up on her. So bottom line, Gabby, it would be wise for you to move on with your life, just like I intend to move on with mine and to that.

I will be filing divorce proceedings as soon as possible. Well, it’s official. The securities have been transferred back to Stephen Zane. I should have been informed of this. Consider this your official notice, Gabby, the stock certificates, please. Now, ooh,

you can’t do this. Most shares belong to Gabby. Now, the law disagrees.

You’re enjoying every minute of this, aren’t you? I enjoy when things are ReSTOR to that proper place. You know? Just because I don’t have a single share after me stock doesn’t mean I’m not ceo. I am ceo, dammit, not long. If it were up to me, I’d throw you both out of. The guy’s in charges her call. I have no idea what has happened to you, Stephan, but you and your brother need to get the hell out my office.

Goodbye.

My mama says that you should never go to bed mad, and we’ve done that for the past two nights now. Ever since we had that stupid fight about your brother. Yeah. It always comes back to him, doesn’t it? Look, I know I made things difficult when I was choosing between you and Johnny, but you No, we, we have to get past that.

Either you trust me or you don’t. It’s Johnny that I don’t trust. He’s not, he’s over me. Okay. He’s he’s moved on. Right, But Ava dumped him. Yeah, but he was really into her. So doesn’t that mean that he’s over.

Allie, look at me. I don’t want him. I want you. And if words can’t prove that to you, then maybe this will,

if you’re sure. Yes, I am. Alright. Mm-hmm. . Oh, just who I was looking for. Look, dad, if you’re here to order me to come home. Uh, the answer’s still no. So if you’ll excuse us. What if I asked both of you back?

Climb what you did to me pales in comparison to, Oh my God, you killed an innocent young woman, the mother of two small children, not to mention what you did to sunny. He won’t forgiveness. You need to ask it from them, from their families, from Abigail’s family, from Sunny and his.

But I will pray for you, Christ,

Everyone deserves at least that. I appreciate that.

Goodbye.

What’s the catch? No catch. Truly look, son, I don’t know if you heard what happened with Clyde Weston last night. I did. Of course you did. Everyone’s heard by now. Anyway, it made me realize how important family is to me. I understand. I’ve hurt you deeply, Johnny, and I need to make amends. I’ve pushed far too many people away in this life and that stops now.

Your Uncle Chad and I have reconciled. I’ve had a chance to get to know your Uncle Stephan, and now I’m determined not to let any more time pass being estranged from my son, whom I truly. And so I’m asking you to come back to the house where you belong. What about Ava? Well, she’s invited as well. As I said, Why?

Yeah, Why this sudden change of heart? Consider it to me a culpa for my unfair conclusions about your mental. So well, how could I turn down such a gracious apology? Evidently, you weren’t hallucinating seeing Jake. You were actually seeing Steph and you were to blame for any understandable confusion. Ava, we do Mirrors owe you on a number of grounds.

Let me start making it up to you. Please come back to the house. My doors are open for the both of you.

Okay. Would you at least consider it?

I will, but But I’m not gonna speak for both of us. Yeah, we’ll talk about it.

How could I think of ever loving someone else when you still have my heart?

Just because you give your heart to somebody else doesn’t mean you have to stop loving me. I know you never will. Just like I will never stop loving you, nor are children

used to tell me how much of me you saw in Charlotte and Thomas doesn’t that. Did I live on in them?

It does Tell me how. Be specific.

Wow.

You live on in Charlotte’s kindness

and in her sense of humor

and in Thomas’s endless curiosity and how he always marched to feet of his own drill.

Thomas has you laugh

and I, Charlotte,

she has your eyes.

She has you. So beautiful. Beautiful eyes.

Will you do one more thing for me? Anything?

I love you with all my heart. I love you.

Ridge: Logan, are you still there?

Brooke: Yeah. Yeah, I’m here.

Ridge: You know, I hate asking you this, but put yourself in my shoes. I had people from child services come to my dad’s house, question my son, my grandson. Took everything in me not to lose it.

And you’ve been saying

for a very long time thomas

isn’t fit to raise a family. You don’t think that douglas is safe with him.

Thomas: Dad, she did it.

Ridge: Just please be honest with me. Just tell me. Did you do this? Did you call cps on my son?

[ Birds squawking and waves

Steffy: Mom?

Taylor: Hey, sweetie. How was your meeting?

Steffy: Uh, good, good. Paris and zende are really stepping it up. Finn stopped by.

Taylor: That’s very sweet of him.

Steffy: What is it? What’s wrong?

Taylor: I’m just– I’m just processing.

Steffy: Mom, you can talk to me.

Taylor: You know, I– I– I love your father so much, you know? He knows it, and you and thomas know. Even brooke knows, but–

Steffy: Dad loves you. He flat out told me.

Taylor: Yeah. Yeah, I’m just, um… I’m tired of the back-and-forth and the mixed signals. It feels like…

[ Steffy sighs ] Feels like history is repeating itself, and I did not come back to L.A. For this.

Steffy: Mom, where’s this coming from?

Taylor: Oh, I’ve been thinking about it a lot. I’ve been watching it play out in real time.

Steffy: I’m not–

Taylor: Sorry.

Steffy: I’m not following.

Taylor: I– I– I– I have just been hit with some common sense this week. Everything regarding ridge and brooke and where I fit in and… you know, I told your dad today that it feels like it’s a– it’s a karmic lesson or something. Me– me waiting for him to realize that brooke doesn’t make him happy. So he can choose us only to watch him go back to brooke’S. I know how this story ends.

Steffy: It’s not gonna happen. It’s not gonna happen. Dad’s at the end of his patience with brooke. Their marriage is not gonna last, I’m telling you.

Taylor: I am not a consolation prize.

> Steffy: I get that. But, I see you two together. You’re incredible, mom, and it’s not because brooke is terrible. It’s because dad is in love with you and that’s what drives brooke crazy.

Taylor: It doesn’t matter.

Steffy: Fine. If you want to give up, I’ll respect that. But don’t give up because of brooke. I’m telling you, you and dad are wonderful together.

Taylor: Yeah, we really are. We are wonderful together. And he’s married to brooke.

Brooke: You’re asking me if I called cps?

Ridge: Listen, I don’t think you’d do anything like that, but you mentioned that you would if–

Brooke: Ridge, it wasn’t me.

Ridge: It wasn’t you? Okay.

Brooke: Look, I– I understand. You had to ask. But the important thing is that douglas is safe.

Ridge: And– and he is safe. He’s always been safe, and this– this wasn’t– this wasn’t fair to thomas at all. I mean, nothing’s gonna happen here. All right?

Brooke: Okay.

Ridge: There’s a lot of things going on. I’ll call you later.

[ Beep ] Brooke said she didn’t do it.

Thomas: I’m sure that’s what she said.

Ridge: Thomas, come on.

Thomas: Look, I– I know you want to defend your wife, but I mean, do you actually believe that that’s true? We really had our hands full with our two-year-old.

Taylor: I– I hear– I hear what you’re saying. But, honey, I– I’ve been on this marriage-go-round for decades. I want to get off.

Steffy: Mom, I know you’re devastated, but you can’t give up. You’ve been in other relationships. Has anyone made you feel the way dad does?

Taylor: No. It hasn’t always been a good thing, you know?

Steffy: Well, I think you and dad are meant to be, and i don’t care if brooke talks about destiny. You’re his true love. You are.

Taylor: X marks the spot.

Steffy: Exactly. When dad proposed to you?

Taylor: Yeah. The boat, the deserted island, the treasure hunt.

Steffy: The treasure hunt, yeah, I know. It’s, like, so dad.

Taylor: So, your dad.

[ Steffy chuckles ] With an x in the sand. Found the ring in a treasure box. Hmm. He told me that he wanted to marry me and that he wouldn’t take no…

Both: For an answer.

Taylor: He said that I was the most important woman in his life. The only woman. It was like a fairy tale.

Steffy: It was.

Taylor: There was no happily ever after. Steffy, I’ve been in love with your father for over 30 years. And so much has happened, but I’m the other woman. I know I am on the wrong side of history on this one. Brooke is married to your father. I am not the homewrecker here. That is her karma. It is not mine.

Liam: Sorry I ran off like that. It’s, you know, my dad. When he says “work comes first,” you know, it’s, uh… oh, sorry. Thought– I thought hope was in here. She go down to the cabin?

Brooke: I’m not sure.

Liam: You okay?

Brooke: Um, yeah. I– I don’t want to get into it.

Liam: Yeah, I– I don’t want to pry, but I do care about ya, and, uh, you don’t seem okay.

Brooke: It’s just I have a lot on my mind, a lot I’m trying to process.

Liam: With ridge?

Brooke: Yeah. Ridge. Thomas.

Liam: Is this about the whole thomas/knife thing? Damn it, I wish we could just go over to the house, grab douglas, and get him the hell out of there, like, right now.

Brooke: Me too.

Thomas: Look, dad, I– I know you’re in a tough place and you want to believe brooke, but, come on, you’re not actually buying this, right?

Ridge: She said she didn’t call cps, and I believe her, yes.

Thomas: She’s lying.

Ridge: Stop! That’s my wife. She said she didn’t do it, so she didn’t do it. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t be angry at you. I’m just– it’S…

Thomas: It’s all right. We’re both frustrated.

Ridge: Well, let’s be frustrated with the people who did this to us, people who are trying to tear apart out family. It’s not brooke.

Thomas: There is a way we could find out.

Ridge: What are you talking about?

Thomas: You remember walter, product development?

Ridge: Walter, yeah, sure. What does he have to do with this?

Thomas: Oh, he decided to leave fashion and work in the, uh, the social services. I mean, he– he’s a consultant for a few branches. I think one of them is child protective services, so I’m sure they record those calls. He could probably tell us who made the call.

If you have type 2 diabetes

or high blood pressure…

[ Steffy chuckles lightly ]

[ Phone ringing ]

[ Beep ]

Steffy: Hey, bill.

Bill: Hey, steffy. Uh, listen, I’m rushing to a meeting, so I’m gonna cut to the chase. I’m putting the aspen home up for sale. I know how much you love it there, so I wanted to give you the first opportunity at it.

Steffy: Oh, wow. Uh, uh, that’s very nice of you. Thank you for the offer.

Bill: Listen, nobody’s there at the moment, so if you want to go check it out, you’re welcome to do that. In fact, uh, you can use my jet. I’ll have othello set it up for you.

Steffy?

Steffy: Uh, yeah, yeah, thank you. I’ll– I’ll– I’ll get back to you, okay? Thanks.

Taylor: Who was that?

Steffy: It doesn’t– it doesn’t matter. Look, I want to continue this conversation about dad.

Taylor: About me moving on with my life. That’s great.

Steffy: Dad loves you. And you love dad. I’m not asking you to be a homewrecker. Dad and brooke’s home was wrecked long ago.

Taylor: Yeah, well, this isn’t the first time their marriage has fallen apart because of brooke’s manipulative games, and it won’t be the last. I know how this story ends. Lots of drama, tears for days, and your dad ends up with brooke.

Liam: It kind of seems like maybe something else is going on. Is there something I’m missing?

Brooke: Ridge called while you were out. He was very upset.

Liam: Oh. Okay. Why?

Brooke: Well, as you know, thomas taking douglas to live with him at eric’s has put kind of a strain on our marriage.

Liam: Yeah, hope’s been, uh, worried about that. Not gonna lie, I have been too.

Brooke: Ridge and I always work things out. My main concern is douglas. Thomas is dangerous. I mean, yes, he’s made strides to make himself a better person, but who changes that much that fast?

Liam: I agree 100%.

Brooke: Feel like he’s just a crazy man wielding a knife around his child. And ridge doesn’t understand the danger it is for douglas to be there.

Liam: Neither does hope. I just– I don’t know. I– I think, um, I think maybe they’re so invested in– in thomas being well that– that it’s clouding their judgment. I– I can’t believe that douglas has been over there for this long. I… all right, well, anyway, what– so, what– what did happen? Is it you and ridge arguing over thomas and douglas again?

Brooke: No. No, but I can understand why his anger was directed at me. Child protective services were called to go check on thomas’ treatment of douglas, and ridge is very upset.

[ Brooke sighs ]

Thomas: Thank you.

Ridge: For what?

Thomas: For calling walter.

Ridge: No, it’s a good idea. We need to figure out who made that phone call.

Thomas: Yeah.

[ Knocking at door ]

Ridge: Here we go. Walter.

Walter: Ridge forrester, hey.

Ridge: How long has it been?

Walter: Uh, since you were teaching this guy how to drive a stick. Told you not to let him learn on the porsche.

Ridge: And you were right. I miss that car.

[ Walter laughs ]

Thomas: I’m a much better driver now, thankfully. It’s good to see you.

Walter: Good to see you, both of you.

Ridge: It is good to see you.

Walter: Yeah.

Ridge: Wasn’t easy losing you at forrester.

Walter: Are you kidding? It wasn’t easy leaving.

Ridge: But you’ve got a new job now, right? Helping people. Helping children.

Walter: It’s the main department my company consults for.

Ridge: That’s great.

Walter: So, what’s going on? Your call sounded urgent.

Ridge: It– it is urgent, walter. Uh, look. Thomas just moved into my dad’s house with his son douglas, and today, two cps officers showed up to question the boy.

Walter: Really?

Ridge: I just want to make it clear that– that– that douglas is safe and he’s happy and healthy in this house, and the officers saw that right away.

Walter: That’s really great to hear. Is this why you wanted to see me?

Ridge: We wanted to see you, walter, ’cause we’d like to know who made the phone call. ‘Cause either someone was deeply misinformed or someone was trying to hurt my family or my son’s name. So we need to see who made the call. I’m jonathan lawson

Steffy: Mom, I understand that you don’t want history to repeat itself, but you and dad have been great, and dad and brooke’s marriage is barely holding on. Why give up now?

Taylor: Because I don’t like who I am right now. I’m fighting with brooke over your father.

Steffy: But he’s finally realizing who brooke really is. And he’s realizing what he has with you. You honestly believe that he’s not in love with you, really?

Taylor: No, I know– I know he is. He’s in love with me while he’s married to brooke, trying to make a decision. That is– that is brooke’s karma coming back. I’m not gonna do to her what she did to me. To us. I’ll respect the marriage. I– I just can’t do it here.

Steffy: What are you saying?

Taylor: I just need to get out of L.A. I need to go.

Steffy: What?

Taylor: I just…

Steffy: No.

Taylor: Just temporary, I promise. I just– I don’t want to be here.

Steffy: Okay. If you’re not going permanently, then… I’ll go with you. We could go to aspen.

Taylor: Aspen?

Steffy: Yes, aspen. I was just on the phone with bill. He’s selling his house. He wanted me to go check it out. So that’s where we’ll go.

Taylor: Honey, you have– you have finn. You have your kids. You have your job.

Steffy: Mom, let me worry about that.

Taylor: Honey, just, I–

Steffy: No, mom, you’ve always supported me. You’ve always been there for me. Now it’s my turn. You want to get away for a little bit? Fine. But you’re not doing this alone. I’m just never gonna stop giving up that you and dad belong together, that you’ll be happy. You’re gonna reunite.

Liam: Cps?

Brooke: Yes.

Liam: And, what, they just showed up at eric’s? Started questioning thomas and douglas?

Brooke: They did.

Liam: I– I’m– I’m so confused. What– who would– who would call cps on thomas?

Walter: Ridge, what you’re asking me–

Ridge: I wouldn’t ask you at all if it wasn’t for my family. It’s my son’s name.

Walter: I can’t play you a recording from a cps call. It’s unethical.

Ridge: All of this is unethical. I have strangers coming to my dad’s house and questioning my son like he’s a criminal, looking at douglas like he’s being abused. He’s a good father.

Walter: I don’t doubt that, but what you’re asking me–

Ridge: What I’m asking you is to try to help me. Who’s trying to tear apart my family? I want to know who made the phone call.

[ Walter sighs ]

Walter: I understand your predicament, I really do. I feel for you, but I– I can’t– I can’t give you confidential information.

Thomas: Look, hey, hey. This would be a personal favor to us. I realize that it’s stressful to you, but it’s gonna be off the record, okay? No one’s gonna find out.

Walter: I– I could lose my license, my livelihood.

Ridge: I wouldn’t let that happen.

[ Walter sighs ]

Walter: If it was anyone other than you– you have to promise me you won’t say a word to anyone about any of this, especially the person who made the phone call.

Thomas: I promise.

Ridge: No one’s ever gonna know.

Walter: Douglas?

Ridge: Douglas forrester.

Walter: It’s the wrong phone. Work phone. There.

[ Walter sighs ] Douglas forrester. I found the case. Case is closed. No findings of concern or need for follow-up. There is a voice recording of the phone call attached. Before I play it, you have to promise me both again that you won’t say a word to anyone.

Thomas: We won’T.

Ridge: Play it.

[ Beep ]

Woman: Child protective services.

Sally: My treat.

Chloe: No, this is going on the expense account. With all the extra hours we’ve been putting in, newman should cover this.

Sally: Okay. Well, if you will not let me repay you and your hard work by buying you a decaf, then please let me at least thank you from the bottom of my heart for staying late tonight.

Chloe: Oh, it’s not a problem. The kids are in good hands, and I just really want to keep up this good momentum. So, speaking of, how was your meeting with nick? Tell me everything.

Sally: Everything?

Chloe: Yeah. So, does he like the direction we’re taking?

Sally: Yeah, he was positive.

Chloe: Okay, great. So, what ground did you guys cover?

Sally: It was a very constructive meeting. Nick gave me some really helpful pointers, and he, you know, uh — we saw eye to eye on just about everything. Yeah, it went better than expected.

Chloe: I mean, I am so happy to hear that. Look, I… I know I’ve said some things. I’ve heard from time to time i can be somewhat critical and, you know, a little outspoken.

Sally: Who, you?

Chloe: It’s only because you have so much potential. And I want what’s best for you and for newman media. You had to fight to stay here. And I will be damned if I’m going to let you screw it all up now. And now you have nick newman himself singing your praises. I mean, he can’t seem to get enough of you.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Chloe: What? What were you gonna say?

Sally: Nothing.

Chloe: Okay.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Chloe: But you know whatever it is, you can tell me.

Sally: We really can trust each other?

Chloe: You need a friend? Look no further.

Sally: Okay. It’s about nick. But it has nothing to do with business.

Nick: When you asked me about sally before, I told you it was none of your business, yet here you are. You followed me here just to repeat your accusations?

Adam: Well, sometimes you have to ask the question more than once to get the truth, nick.

Nick: Your ex can do whatever the hell she wants, and that does include having a business dinner with her boss.

Adam: Mm. Well, the way you two were looking at each other, I highly doubt you were discussing newman media’s profit margins.

Nick: Just letting that imagination run wild, huh?

Adam: [ Sighs ] Listen, this is ridiculous. Why do you keep avoiding the question? Why don’t you just come clean, nick, that you and sally are sleeping together? And you — you just couldn’t wait to make your move, huh?

Nick: Jealousy is not a good look for you, adam. And I advise you to tread carefully.

Adam: Nick, she’s using you.

Nick: Yeah?

Adam: Mm-hmm.

Nick: For what?

Adam: To get back at me. See, you’re the rebound guy. I broke her heart, and she went to the next newman in line. Now, you must know that, but you just decided to go along with it.

Nick: You don’t know what you’re talking about. If you think that’s what’s going on, then you don’t know me or sally very well.

Adam: Well, it’s a funny thing you haven’t denied that you’re sleeping together, so i guess that tells me everything that I need to know.

Summer: Ah. Mr. Abbott.

Kyle: Mrs. Abbott-to-be again. Happy vow renewal eve.

Summer: Same to you, my love. But there has got to be a better name for this.

Kyle: It is a bit of a mouthful.

Summer: Yeah, it really is. I was thinking about it on my drive home. Sorry I couldn’t leave the office with you, by the way. I got pulled into a last-minute meeting, and then I had a bunch of phone calls to catch up on —

Kyle: It’s fine. It’s fine. I want to hear all about your day later — because right now, you are needed in the bedroom.

Summer: Oh, you don’t say. Tell me more.

Kyle: I can’T. It’s a surprise.

Summer: Mm. Okay. [ Chuckles ]

Nate: I, uh, hoped that taking a walk…

[ Keys clatter ] …Would give us some time to cool off.

Elena: I’m certainly calmer now. But it hasn’t changed how I feel about what you did.

Nate: I guess it’s safe to assume you still think we need to spend some time apart.

Elena: Yeah. I think it’s for the best. I booked a room at the grand phoenix.

Nate: [ Scoffs ] For how long?

Elena: I don’t know.

Nate: I cannot believe you think moving out would be the solution to our conflict.

Elena: I didn’t say it was a solution. This is about getting some distance so that we can actually find one.

Nate: I still think it would benefit us if we stayed together and worked through this here in our home.

Elena: No. Considering how I feel… I can’t stay here with you. It would just make things worse than they already are. What happens to your body language

Sally: Things between me and nick have taken a decidedly personal turn.

Chloe: Okay. Um, are we talking, like, fun flirtation or something more intimate?

Sally: The second thing.

Chloe: Oh. Okay, um…how intimate?

Sally: Very.

Chloe: Okay. Um…these things happen. You know, you have a couple drinks over dinner and you forget your boundaries and, you know, we all make mistakes.

Sally: Is it still a mistake if it happens twice?

Chloe: Twice. Okay. So, not like a drunken one-night stand? Okay.

Sally: Mm-hmm.

Chloe: I see.

Sally: Do you?

Chloe: Yeah. Um… yeah, I d– I — you know, I’m gonna need, like, a minute to process this. I just — I’m fine. I-I’m — I’m to– I’m totally fine. I…

Sally: Okay. Well, I would appreciate that because I could really use a friend right now.

Chloe: Yeah. What kind? Like, what kind of friend? Like, the kind that, you know, is, you know, really supportive? Or the kind that offers, like, a ton of opinions? Because I just need to know before I go into this so I don’t screw it up. So, like, how long has this been going on between you and nick?

Sally: It’s brand-new. And — and — and it’s not even something I was looking for and certainly was not expecting. It just was out of the blue. But, oh, my god, chloe, it has just been mind-blowing, like —

Chloe: Okay. Uh, you know, over-sharing. I…

Sally: Okay, look, I don’t know what it is, okay? We’re not over-analyzing it. We’re not putting a label on it. It’s just, all I know is that he’s honest and charming and

[Laughs] So funny. And he listens to what I have to say, and he respects my opinions. Oh, my god, and, chloe…

[ Chuckles ]

Chloe: No. Please don’T. Please don’T. Just don’T.

Sally: [ Sighs ] All I was gonna say that I’m genuinely happy when I’m with him.

Chloe: [ Sighs ] Look, nick is a really good guy. And he’s been your biggest champion lately. But I don’t think you’re doing yourself any favors getting involved with not only your boss, but adam’s brother.

Sally: I know, and it wasn’t something that I was looking for. It just happened.

Chloe: Happened. Yeah, I know. I-I get it. I get it. I… I know what it’s like to have a connection and then it just, you know, veers off into a completely unexpected direction. But, you know, as much as I want you to move on because it is the healthy and smart thing to do… you’re not 100% over adam, are you?

Sally: I’ll get there.

Chloe: Adam’s a lot, and it’s gonna take you a while to get him out of your system and…

[ Sighs ] Overlap? It can get really messy.

Sally: Yeah, I know. I’m aware. And nick knows exactly what I’m going through, okay? We have been very open with each other about it.

Chloe: Okay, that’s great. But I have to ask. Does adam know about nick?

Sally: Know for sure? No. But, I mean, he definitely suspects. He asked me about nick point blank.

Chloe: Okay, well, that’s not good.

Sally: [ Sighs ]

Chloe: What did you tell him?

Sally: I refused to indulge him, and I shut him down. You saw me talking with him today. It was totally civil. And it was the same when nick and I crossed paths with him at dinner tonight with chelsea.

Chloe: [ Laughing ] Oh! That sounds like an evening from hell. I mean… wow, I have never been happier to have my husband and children waiting for me at home with our perfectly boring life.

Sally: Yeah. I know. Now that I’m finally saying it out loud, yeah, it does sound a bit —

Chloe: Dangerous?

Sally: [ Sighs ]

Chloe: If adam has even the slightest hint of suspicion that you are hooking up with his brother, he’s going to find you and hound you for an answer. And if he finds out what’s really going on, we both know that he will not handle it gracefully.

Adam: Look, if you and sally are together, why don’t you just have the decency to tell me that, okay? Why are you so afraid to tell me the truth, nick?

Nick: I’m not afraid of anything. But it’s clear you are. You obviously regret ending things the way you did. But you coming here looking for a fight with me is not gonna change what happened. You need to let it go, adam. You got a lot going for you. You got that new job. There’s a lot of room for growth and recognition with jack at jabot. He really likes and respects you. Try and be happy there. But this? We’re finished.

Adam: Are you for real, nick? You think I’m just gonna crawl out of here with my tail between my legs? Not a chance — because I am just getting started.

Nate: I hate that things have come to this.

Elena: So do I.

Nate: But what I hate even more is that you cannot and will not see my plan from my perspective.

Elena: I see exactly what you’re doing. But more importantly, I see exactly who you’re becoming. Nate, you used to care about people so much that you spent all your free time volunteering at the clinic. But now it’s like you’re blinded by greed and ambition and believing that your opinion is the only one that matters. And I don’t recognize that man. It’s like you’ve — you’ve turned your back on medicine and the only thing you value is power and recognition over everything else, even your own family.

Nate: That is not true. Yes, I want to make my mark. Yes, I believe I can be the kind of leader chancellor-winters deserves. But I do not value power over the people in my life, not more than what I have with you.

Elena: I used to believe that.

Nate: Wow. You’re killing me talking like this.

Elena: It kills me to have to say it. I never thought we’d end up here. And I would do anything to help you, but you won’t even listen to me, so I don’t know how i can.

Nate: I don’t need you to save me. What I want… what I want is your love and support. The same thing I give to you is what I expect in return.

[ Sighs ] Yeah, but it seems like that’s too much to ask. So, after, uh, talking this out, I see the sense in what you’re saying.

Elena: You do?

Nate: Yeah. I think you’re right. This separation is for the best. – Bedtime!! – Bedtime.

Kyle: No peeking.

Summer: Hurry up. You’re driving me crazy.

Kyle: Ah. That’s the idea.

Summer: Mm. Mmm. Mmm! If that was the surprise, I am not complaining, but you didn’t need to go through all this fanfare.

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Summer: Okay.

Kyle: [ Laughs ]

Summer: Well, that felt surprising. Can I see it? Oh, it’s cute!

Kyle: Uh-huh.

Summer: It’s cute. It’s, uh — it’s very wearable, although I don’t know how much use I’m gonna get out of it, considering it’s fall now. But I promise I will wear it as much as I can, despite the strange looks that I’ll get.

Kyle: Uh-huh.

Summer: Who knows? Maybe I will start a trend — straw hats in autumn. What do you think?

Kyle: Oh, you take my breath away. But I can’t believe you just bought that.

[ Laughs ]

Summer: Oh, you think i bought that ridiculous cover story that you were, what, walking through the fenmore’s sales section and you saw this off-season straw hat and just thought it would look so good on me?

Kyle: Mm-hmm. You make everything look good.

Summer: No. This isn’t your average, run-of-the-mill straw hat, is it?

Kyle: No.

Summer: It’s a — it’s a sign.

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Summer: A clue?

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Summer: What did my handsome husband do?

Kyle: You’ll never figure it out.

Summer: What, you… oh, you signed up harrison for those basket-weaving classes?

Kyle: Mm…think more romantic.

Summer: You want me to… fall in love… with this hat.

[ Both laugh ]

Kyle: I didn’t buy the hat on a whim, and the only straw baskets in your future will be filled with guava fruit because they grow all over where we’re headed.

Summer: We’re going somewhere?

Kyle: Uh-huh.

Summer: [ Gasps ] Oh, my god. We’re going away! Where we going?!

Kyle: To a place where the straw hat will fit right in with the tropical vibe. How does costa rica sound for a honeymoon?

Summer: Ahh! [ Laughs ] God! It sounds like the best honeymoon ever!

Kyle: Yeah!

Summer: [ Laughing ]

Adam: Well, thank you, nick, for the, uh, pep talk and the platitudes, but that’s not why I’m here. I want to know what is going on with the woman that I still love and my brother.

Nick: If sally wanted to talk about her personal life with you, she would have done that. But she obviously chose not to. She also made it clear that she doesn’t want to see that much of you. But you doing this little end around her and coming to me is just sad.

Adam: God, it is fascinating how you portray yourself as the outsider, nick, when you put yourself in the middle. See, this isn’t just about sally. It’s about you and what you are doing to me.

Nick: Oh, here we go. Cue the violins. Poor adam. Always the victim.

Adam: No, no, no. I prefer innocent bystander. Because you may not have intentionally done something to me, but you have to admit you took full advantage of my situation and you didn’t give a damn how I felt about it, nick.

Nick: I have no idea what you’re talking about.

Adam: Really? Really? ‘Cause after years of showing no interest in the family business, you’re suddenly coo? And having no interest in sally, now she’s never too far from you, having meetings in the office over dinner, in her hotel suite. I mean, nick, there are thousands of other women in this town, and who is the one woman that you went for?

Nick: Not everything is about you.

Adam: Yeah, it’s just a crazy coincidence, right? And, hey, I should ignore it because I have a new job.

Nick: I get it that you’re frustrated, but I do not appreciate you coming in here and twisting my words and everything I’m doing and making it into this weird personal vendetta that simply doesn’t exist.

Adam: No, nick, this conversation isn’t over, okay?

Nick: No, this is not a conversation because you’re not listening. You walked through that door and you already had your mind made up.

Victoria: What the hell is going on here?

Sally: I really don’t want to talk about how adam would react to that news because there really is no news to react to, okay? Nick and I are…

Chloe: Work buddies?

Sally: Not a thing. Okay? And if you wouldn’t mind, i would really rather drop the subject because I have way too much on my mind already.

Chloe: Okay. Yeah, I — you know what? You’re right. We can just cross that bridge when we come to it. But I do think we should address the most important thing.

Sally: What’s that?

Chloe: What does your heart feel?

Sally: Look, as complex and confusing as my emotions are, i know I can’t go back to adam. I refuse to let him break my heart again.

Chloe: Great. But I wasn’t talking about adam. I was talking about nick. A dental tool is round for a reason.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Elena: I think I have everything I need for now.

Nate: It’s not like this is forever, right?

Elena: I should get going.

[ Sighs ] I love you, nate. I wish…

Nate: Yeah. Me too.

[ Door closes ]

Summer: I cannot believe you did this. I’m getting an actual honeymoon with my husband?

Kyle: Mm-hmm. You are going to love the — mnh, no, no, nope, I shouldn’T. I shouldn’t say anything.

Summer: No.

Kyle: No.

Summer: No. Come on. Tell me. I want to know what I am in for.

Kyle: Are you sure it won’t wreck the surprise?

Summer: The anticipation will only make the excitement last longer. Now, come on. Tell me about my honeymoon.

Kyle: Well, hold on to your hat ’cause I’m taking you away to paradise. And I’m not just talking about skies bluer than anything you could imagine or warm and refreshing water and food so good your taste buds will wonder why you’ve been depriving them for so long. There will be all of that and more. But at some point, while you’re wrapped in the sheets, napping in the sunshine in our luxurious room, you’ll wonder why we missed those scuba diving lessons and why we’ve so rarely danced underneath the millions of stars you can see from our private villa.

Summer: [ Chuckles ] Wow. You have painted such a vibrant picture, I can — I can practically feel the sand beneath my toes.

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Summer: Babe, we have a company to run. Are you sure that we can actually get away?

Kyle: Have a little faith. There will never be a perfect time. We’re the bosses. But we have executives who can oversee things while we’re gone. Marchetti will keep running smoothly.

Summer: Mm. You are very persuasive. But you know what? I think I need to get a better glimpse of what’s gonna happen while we’re away.

Kyle: How about I give you a preview of our honeymoon right now?

Summer: I think it’s always smart to be proactive.

Kyle: Well, I predict your favorite memory from our trip to costa rica would be a kiss that looks a little something like this.

Summer: Mmm.

Victoria: Are you looking for me?

Adam: I actually came to see nick…but I’m leaving now. I’m sure he will bring you and sally up to speed — because i would bet good money he’s going to see her yet again tonight. Till next time, brother.

[ Door slams ]

Victoria: What is that?

Nick: Just, uh, adam doing what he does best — looking for a fight.

Victoria: I was actually referring to his comment about sally. Do you care to elaborate?

Nick: It’s nothing for you to worry about. In fact, it’s nobody’s business.

Victoria: Oh, I disagree. You and adam just made it my business.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Elena: [ Gasps ]

[ Sniffles ]

[ Cries ]

[ Stopper clinking ]

[ Bottle thuds ]

Nate: [ Sighs ]

[ Sighs heavily ]

Victoria: You’ve become a very strong advocate of sally, more so than I would have expected.

Nick: I am fighting for her because she deserves a position, and I’m still convinced she’s gonna do great things for newman media.

Victoria: I have my reservations about whether or not she’s the best person for the job, but I trust your judgment, which is why I gave her a chance to prove herself. I have to admit, she defended herself admirably.

Nick: Then what’s the problem?

Victoria: Well, you know, i don’t need to know any more than I already do, but what matters to me is that, regardless of the truth, adam seems to think that there’s something going on between you and sally, and he’s not happy.

Nick: You picked up on that, too, huh?

Victoria: You know what? Don’t joke about this, nick. Adam’s gonna lash out. The only question is, how bad will it be?

Sally: I don’t get your concern about nick. Don’t I deserve a nice guy?

Chloe: Of course. I think I’ve gotten to know you pretty well. And when you feel things, you feel them deeply. And when someone sees you, it means everything. Okay, look, I think you’re making a gigantic deal out of nothing, okay? It is not like that with me and nick.

Chloe: Okay. So, what if he shows up at your place and he says, “this was just a thing, and it’s over”? You’d be okay with that?

Sally: Okay, well, I don’t think that that’s how it’s gonna happen, but if this continues and things don’t work out for either of us, then we just talk about it and we call things off.

Chloe: Okay. Yeah. I mean, you just go back to the way things were before they started, and, you know, you’re adults and it’s — it’s fine.

Sally: Mm-hmm. Exactly.

Chloe: You know I’m just looking out for you, right?

Sally: I appreciate that. But I am not gonna get my heart broken.

Chloe: [ Sighs ] You know that’s something that you can never really predict.

Sally: You’re right. I mean, how could I possibly know what the future holds for me when I can barely even understand the present? I just…need time. You know? I’ll figure things out.

[ Sighs ] My skin, but better.

Nick: Don’t worry. I can handle adam.

Victoria: Well, he’s not the only person that you have to worry about. What about our father? He’s gonna have a thing or two to say once he finds out that you’re romantically involved with a woman that he wants to fire.

Nick: It’s not that big a deal.

Victoria: Well, it’s probably gonna be a big deal to summer. How do you think she’ll feel when she finds out you’re seeing someone who is hell-bent on stealing her job? And don’t you dare say all’s well that ends well.

Nick: You’re getting way ahead of yourself, alright? And whatever is or isn’t happening is not for public consumption.

Victoria: Dream on. Everything has a way of coming out eventually, whether you want it to or not.

Nick: It’s my life.

Victoria: Fine. I won’t push. No more big sister commentary.

Nick: Thank you.

Victoria: And we’re gonna table all work talk until tomorrow. I’m exhausted. I just want this day to be over.

Nick: Yeah, it makes sense, with everything that’s going on with chelsea and johnny that you’d want to get out of here early.

Victoria: You want to walk me out?

Nick: Uh, I got some things i got to take care of before I can leave.

Victoria: Alright. Don’t have too much fun.

Nick: [ Sighs ]

Victoria: And one more thing about sally.

Nick: Come on. I thought we were done with that.

Victoria: Before you take any further action, I’m asking you to consider what you’re doing very carefully. If this is some passive-aggressive attack against adam or you’re bored or you like playing with fire, just remember what you’re doing — it affects the company and the family. And that’s an absolute certainty.

[ Door closes ]

Chloe: We were about to leave. Let’s just stick to our plan. Adam, whatever it is, the answer is no.

Adam: Sally, sally, sally, I just want to talk.

Chloe: Did you not just hear what I said?

Sally: It’s okay, chloe. You can go.

Chloe: Okay, well, I’m not about to leave the two of you alone together.

Adam: Okay, well, fine. You can stay. I just — I just want a straight answer.

Sally: We have already been over this, adam.

Adam: Why — why is it so hard for you to just be honest with me? You know that this is eating away at me, and you know how i feel about you, so just tell me, please. I just need to hear the truth from you.

Sally: [ Breathes deeply ] Yes. Something happened between me and nick. I don’t know what it is, but whatever it is, you don’t get to have an opinion on it, okay? You and I broke up. I don’t owe you an explanation.

Summer: This is bliss.

Kyle: Mm.

Summer: Just the two of us. A quiet interlude before the wonderful mayhem of our vow renewal tomorrow.

[ Both laugh ]

Harrison: Daddy! I need you!

Kyle: Uh, we’re on our way, harrison!

Victoria: Hello.

Nate: Hey. You having dinner solo?

Victoria: Oh, I ordered to go. I just want to get home and put on my robe and have a little peace.

Nate: Uh, care to join me while you wait?

[ Clears throat ]

Victoria: You look like you’re not having the best night, either.

Nate: Yeah. I just, uh, needed to get out and clear my head.

Victoria: Does whatever is going on with you have to do with chancellor-winters?

Nate: It has everything to do with it.

Victoria: Oh, I see. Does that mean that you’re changing your mind about our arrangement?

Zyrteeeec

Kyle: What happened, kiddo? Was it a bad dream?

Summer: I’m gonna guess because I think I know what’s going on here. Did you have a really good dream? Like, the best kind, where everything you want happens and it all works out in the end? And then you were so happy you couldn’t fall back to sleep?

[ Laughs ]

Kyle: [ Laughs ]

Summer: I have those dreams, too. I bet it’s because of tomorrow. Are you super excited for tomorrow, too?

Harrison: I can’t wait.

Kyle: Mm. Neither can I.

Summer: I think it’s gonna be like your birthday and christmas and 4th of july and all of the best days wrapped into one and then dipped into chocolate.

Harrison: I love chocolate.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ] It’s gonna be a great day for all of us.

Summer: We just need to do one thing.

Kyle: What’s that?

Summer: A group hug.

Kyle: Ooh.

Summer: [ Chuckles ] Here.

Kyle: Come here and give us a hug, buddy. Come here. Aw!

Summer: Ohh!

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

Nate: I’m a man of my word. Our arrangement stands.

Victoria: I’m happy to hear that.

[ Chuckles ]

Nate: Too bad elena wasn’T. She doesn’t understand my reasons, can’t see my point of view. It’s, uh, created some conflict between us.

Victoria: Well, I am sorry to hear that, but I have to say, i was a little surprised that you told her what your plan was in the first place.

Nate: I wish I hadn’T.

[ Clears throat ] But, uh, if you’re worried she’ll spill the beans, don’t be. She would never do that to me.

Victoria: You know, there will always be people who take issue with people like me. And like you and my dad, the ones who take bold and daring moves and are not afraid to see the big picture.

Nate: Mm.

Victoria: We don’t all have the vision, you know, and that’s fine.

Nate: I cannot tell you what a relief it is to talk to someone I don’t have to explain myself to.

Victoria: You know, what we do in the corporate world is just as important and valid as any other field. We create jobs. We — we pay salaries. People are clothed and they’re fed and they’re housed. Their children can go to college because of what we do. And that’s nothing to be ashamed of.

Nate: I’m not used to justifying my decisions.

Victoria: Don’t waste your time with that. Make your choices. Follow your path. Stick to your convictions. It’s the only way to not have regrets.

Adam: Well, I’m sure that was cleansing for you, seeing sally eviscerate me like that.

Chloe: You know, I don’t like seeing my friend get hurt. And, sorry, I’m not talking about you. I’m talking about sally. But I would like to make a suggestion.

Adam: Mm. I just love those.

Chloe: You did this to yourself. You pushed too hard. Your desperate pursuit made sally run in the opposite direction, and now she finally has room in her life for good things. So I — wait a minute. I guess I should really be thanking you, if I think about it. Wow. You know, well done. Keep up the good work.

[ Knock on door ]

Sally: [ Sighs ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I said, thank you. I’m not e we’re finally getting down to the nitty-gritty. And if that’s the case, then you owe me an answer. If I don’t tell curtis about your theory that he may be trina’s biological father, are you gonna tell him yourself? Believe it or not, portia, I don’t want to blow up your relationship with curtis. You and I may never become the best of friends, but I want curtis to be happy. So do I. Then you can see that I’m right. It’s up to you to tell curtis yourself.

[ Laughs ] Hey, y’all. Um… hey, dad.

[ Chuckles ] Oh, here for a checkup? Well, my break’s over. Um… I’ll see you later, marshall. Okay. Man, I’m not here to get checked out tonight. I’m here to help. Uh, what does that mean? It means, thanks to epiphany, I have been asked to provide some music therapy to the G.H. Patients. Right on. Uh, that’s a good idea. Maybe you can start with the patient right here in this room who’s lucky to be alive. Now, I-I-I know this is upsetting. Just let me explain, okay? No need to explain. Okay? Working side by side with you kept me going during my trial. It gave me something to focus on besides my fear of being found guilty and sent to prison. I intend on working at that gallery until you’re back on your feet. Trina, listen to me. Whoever did this to me, whoever put me in this hospital is still out there, right? And as long as I’m a potential target, I have got to close the gallery. What? It’s just not safe there right now. Not for me and… not for you. I-I never said I wanted leopold taub to be my biological father. From what I heard, leopold taub was a misogynist tyrant, and mac, who raised me as if I was his own daughter, is the absolute best. So I think if mac were your dad, that would be a huge step up for you. Okay. Listen, I’ve always lived life on my own terms — no strings, no expectations. So let’s just say that the last thing I need is having a cop for a dad. What does mac’s job have to do with anything? I think it has to do with everything. So you’re behind society setups? I’m doomed, I tell you, destined to rot in a federally funded super-max. Okay, wait, wait. Calm down, spinelli. Everyone knows that you are prone to exaggeration. So what, you used your cyber skills to create a matchmaking service. There’s nothing illegal about that. Except when there is. Don’t you see? My one and only child is gonna grow up seeing daddy on visitation days. And trust me when I tell you, orange is not my color. Okay, no, no, no. Stop, stop, stop. Stop, stop. Please. Tell me everything, and just start from the beginning. Before or after I violated the computer fraud and abuse act? I asked you a question, michael. What do you care what happens to dex? Because he was on the scene either before or after all three attacks. And your point is? Look, we both know what you’d do to someone you suspected of targeting your friends and family. As you can see by my tools, I have options. You can answer my questions and we can proceed the easy way. Or you can play tough guy, keep evading, and we can do it the hard way. Really makes no difference to me. Sooner or later, you’re gonna start talking.

Okay, to be clear, I’m not taking sides here, but I do know a little bit about what it’s like to come from a family that you need to live up to — or live down, one of the two. You see? I’m not the only one who’s leery about family. Look, I-I assume you’re talking about the quartermaines. I know they treated you unfairly, but aren’t you still guided by the memory of your father? Sure. And other things. Okay, we’re gonna circle back to the other things later. My point is, if you give mac a chance, I promise, cody, you will not regret it.

[ Chuckles ] I take it there are no updates on diane miller. She’s still in surgery. Mac, you’ve been here for hours. Come home with me. I can’t do that. Okay. Well, then how can I help you? If you really want to help… anything. Yes. Tell me what happened after I got the call about the attack on diane and left you at the metro court with cody bell. I have a better idea. Come on. What exactly am i supposed to tell curtis? That, according to you, he may be trina’s biological father? Curtis asked me that question years ago. And what did you tell him? I told him, no, he wasn’T. And you know that for a fact? What I know for a fact is that curtis and i wouldn’t be the only ones affected by such a thing. Trina is marcus’ whole world. I realize that. Do you really? Because when things were truly bleak with marcus, the thought of trina is the only thing that kept him going. And trina adores him. You remember how badly she was grieving when she thought that he had been killed. I will not turn their world upside down because you — you keep inserting yourself into my life. Into curtis’ life, when he’s made it very clear that you have a minimal role in his. Curtis: Wow. Look at that. Good as new. Mm-hmm. Even better. Them punks who tried to steal it from me did me a favor. Leon purdee — he fixed it up some kind of good. Look how she shine. And wait till you hear how she sound. Sweeter than tupelo, mississippi, honey.

[ Chuckles ] Um, dad, are we still talking about the clarinet? Or you talking about epiphany? Man, I barely get to see that woman, alright? She — she busy studying for them mcats. I don’t know. The way she was smiling when y’all walked in, I don’t think epiphany’s ever too busy for you, dad. Alright, what about you? Mm-hmm. Uh, what about me? I figured by now you and portia would have set a wedding date. What’s the hiccup?

[ Exhales deeply ] Hmm? My dad has taught me to stand up to bullies, and my mom has never been afraid to do the right thing, no matter the cost. That is very commendable. But we’re not talking about a schoolyard bully here. We’re talking about a killer. And I could never live with myself if something happened to you. I understand there’s a dangerous person out there. But I carry pepper spray with me, always. I never miss my classes at pcu. Why does the gallery have to be any different? Oh! I forgot to tell you the exciting part. I helped you get a different internship. What internship? Only the most prestigious one offered by the port charles museum of fine art. The murphy-katz foundation fellowship? Mm-hmm. At the chuck? I was too late to apply. I couldn’t have gotten it this year. Well, this letter says differently. Frank, you go ahead and go take a break. You telling me I can’t protect my own family now? My — my problem’s with how you’re protecting your family. You’ve made it clear, michael, how many times, you don’t want me in your life. Unless you’re rethinking that. Then we can talk. I figured. But make no mistake the kind of father you’re gonna be taking back. He’s the kind of guy who’s gonna make sure his family’s safe, no matter what you think. I’m gonna make mistakes. You don’t have to agree with everything I say, but I am who I am, and I’m gonna do what I’ve always done. And that’s make sure that you, willow, your kids, your mom are safe! And I’m gonna make sure… …that nobody that I care about again… is left to bleed. And I’m sorry. I don’t give a damn if that offends your delicate sensibilities.

You and I have clearly led very different lives. Because in my experience, when someone promises you something that is absolutely guaranteed, that just means you’re gonna be disappointed — every single time.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Let me guess. The hospital needs you? Something like that. I got to go. Um, hang in there. I understand. Sometimes family can be a pain.

[ Scoffs ] Oh, austin? Hi. Uh, we know it’s late, and we don’t want to wake up the kids. Is this a bad time? I think that depends who you ask. Excuse me. Hey. Um, you — hey, maxie. We just want — uh… oh, you’re here.

[ Door closes ] Okay, now that I know that you’re not exaggerating and you might be in real trouble, can you please back it up and just walk me through it? You — you — you may understand this better than anyone. You know, ellie and i had just parted ways when jason was killed. Right. And I’m self-aware enough to know that I’m — I’m quirky. I’m not everyone’s cup of tea. But to lose… two of my guiding lights in such a short span… I was lost. And lonely. And so those dating websites and apps that I had mocked when I was with ellie, I suddenly fell prey to. But no one that I met was ever… quite the right fit?

[ Sighs ] So few people have actually read stephen hawking or a wordsworth poem. Oh! [ Chuckles ] Shocking. A-a true connection, devoutly to be wished, is incredibly rare.

[ Sighs ] Yeah, I-I know. Dante and I know how incredibly lucky we are that we have found each other. Yeah. Alas, I have not had that same good luck. Um… so I built a better… mousetrap [Chuckles] If you will. I wrote an algorithm… that takes a subject’s personal data and transforms it into a unique, completely objective profile and then matches them with their mathematically perfect fit. Okay, I-I may be lost here, but this sounds like an amazing matchmaking service. Yes, my invention might be worthy of a nobel prize for love. If only… if only what? How are you breaking any laws?

[ Sighs ] I realized that in order to find someone’s perfect match, I needed to cast a wider net of possible matches. Like, what good would it be if someone’s perfect match wasn’t a member of society setups? So in order for this to work, I had to have access to the digital footprint of the lovelorn… …all over the world. Wait. What are you talking about? Are you saying that you learned how to hack everyone? I’m equally proud and somewhat horrified by my invention, which I call cupid’s arrow. The program can penetrate every password, every firewall so that I can learn all the aspects of someone’s life, right? Mm-hmm. So, I mean, not — not just their favorite color and, yes, their social security number and bank account, but… what kind of ice cream they prefer, right, what teams they root for, are they online at 3:00 A.M. I mean, literally every aspect of someone’s life. Yeah. Wow. Spinelli… you’re screwed. Portia and I, well, we hit a few speed bumps on the way to the altar. Boy, I hope you’re not considering letting that girl go. Of course not, dad. It’s — it’s just that, um… well, technically, uh, jordan and I are still married. What?! How is that possible? There was a mix-up with the divorce papers, so they never got filed. God. Once it’s worked out, we’ll b– dad, I got to go, but good luck with the music therapy.

[ Sighs ] Is everything okay? I don’t know. You tell me. “The port charles museum of fine art is pleased to offer you a murphy-katz foundation fellowship for fall semester at pcu.” I don’t know how to thank you.

[ Laughs ] It was my pleasure. It was my honor. But, you know, it, um, wasn’t originally my idea. Curtis is the one who set all of this in motion.

[ Knock on door ][ Door opens ] He is the one you should thank. I didn’t do this. Let me go. Please.

[ Knock on door ]

[ Groaning ] Let me guess. Our guest wants an upgrade. More like an early checkout. He’s not going anywhere. So what do you think? Time for a break? I could use some fresh air. Good. You’re not going to protect anyone by finding a-a convenient scapegoat, some unlucky guy you can blame based on the flimsiest of circumstantial evidence. You’ll feel like a hero, right, showing the world that you’re willing to throw your associates to the wolves. But that does not make you right. Also doesn’t make me wrong. So, unless you — you know something I don’T. Why do you think dex is innocent, michael? Suffering from sinus congestion,especially at night? Try vicks sinex. Unlike most sinus treatments it provides instant relief that lasts up to 12 hours. Vicks sinex contains a powerful decongestant that targets congestion at the source. It relieves nasal congestion and soothes sinus pressure by reducing swelling in the sinuses. For instant relief that lasts up to 12 hours try vicks sinex.

That is, of course, unless the chief of detectives still considers me a suspect. No? Okay. Cody, wait. Uh… mac, you asked me what happened after you left the metro court and I was still there with cody. Well, the truth is, we talked. Okay. Okay, I’m listening. This is your chance, cody. Man up. Okay, fine. Um… when I found out you were asking questions about me, I assumed it was because you were trying to nail me for attacking ava jerome. But then, thanks to your wife — please call me felicia. Thanks to felicia… I realized you were asking questions because you used to be involved with dominique stanton, who’s my mother. And you wanted to know if… if you’re my son. Dr. Gatlin-holt. Amy, hi. What are you doing here? I didn’t see your name on the work schedule. Right, I’m — I’m covering for somebody. I forget who. Excuse me. Mason, you don’t get to summon me like this. I don’t work for you. Easy, cuz. You’re right. You don’t work for me. But we got the same employer, remember? Yeah, I quit that. That’s the thing about a family business. You don’t get to quit. And tonight, it’s your turn to do some heavy lifting. Have you asked yourself what happens if you say nothing? Things will go on as they have been. That’s wishful thinking.

[ Sighs ] Curtis doesn’t just share a home with you. He loves you and your daughter. Which means that nothing has to change. And have you asked yourself what happens if curtis finds a reason to suspect that trina’s his daughter, too? Sure, you don’t have to answer my questions, but you won’t have that luxury with curtis. I know from my own experience how curtis deals with secrets and lies. And I’m telling you, don’t repeat my mistakes. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but one day, this will come back to haunt you. Stay out of my business, jordan. I’m gonna handle my life my way. Jordan: Portia? I can’t predict what will happen if you come clean with curtis. But I know for sure how it’ll go if he finds out on his own. Did you tell her about the fellowship? I did. I couldn’t wait. I needed something to lift her spirits after telling her that I’m closing the gallery. I don’t know what to say except thank you. Well, like I said, it was a team effort. Oh. My mom has never told me that you were into art before. I’m more into keeping you safe. What does that mean? Well, it means that, um, ava and I had a conversation about the gallery and how it lacks proper security. But such is not the case at the chuck. Do you mind if curtis and i step outside for a talk? Yeah. Of course.

[ Door closes ] Hey, trina. What’s up? I appreciate the opportunity, but I can’t accept the fellowship. I barely know dex. But I’ve seen the way he acts around you. Yeah? How’s that, michael? Like a dog… oh, like a dog, right. …Who’s been in a shelter for too long and finally found a home that makes him eager to please you. So killing your cousin brando makes no sense. Yeah, well, you know, I don’t know. I mean, look, there’s been a few people that I’ve done really good things for, and they’ve turned their back on me. So we’ll just see how this shakes out. What does that mean? I want the guy with the hook! That’s it! That’s exactly who you want, the guy with the hook, not some wannabe who was willing to deck me because I was talking back to the boss. Look, what if you’re targeting dex and that leaves the real killer out there with a free pass and someone else from the family that you claim to love is next on his list?

Setups down now before it’s too late. No, I — I know that’s the right thing to do, but — but what? There is no “but.” But my program actually works. I mean, you should see some of the testimonials that come across zelda’s desk. Okay. Yes. My desk. Mm-hmm. Zelda’s just a figurehead. That’s not even her real name. Anyway, people, they — they are grateful. They’re — they’re happy and they’re satisfied romantically and in every other way because of me. Is the money that good? Well, yes. But it’s not just that. It — I feel like in some small way, I’m helping to change the world for the better. Okay, well, why don’t you tell that to britt westbourne and her string of losers? O-okay, that — that was an earlier version, a beta version. I’ve refined the program. Oh, you have? So you’re saying that britt’s perfect match is cody? Mac: It took me a while to accept the possibility that you could be my son. But I’m not afraid of it anymore. But it sounds like you are. Why is that? Who says I’m afraid? I’ve been around long enough to recognize when someone is hiding something. Oh, come on, mac. You can’t seriously think cody is some sort of serial killer. I’m not accusing him of having a hook up his sleeve. But you are a card player, right? Who told you that? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I mean, if the stakes are high enough, I’ll play, yes. What are you playing for now? Yeah, okay, I think I’ve had enough of this. You could do a lot worse than be a member of this family. Ask maxie. Eh, they’re alright. No, I’m kidding. My family is the best. And there are even more of us. So what have you got to lose by finding out? But when this is over, I’m done. Do you understand? Done is done. All my debts will have been repaid. It’s cute that you think it works like that.

[ Chuckles ] Amy: Dr. Gatlin-holt? Showtime, buddy boy. Hello, sir. Amy, let’s get this gentleman an exam room, please. Okay. I’ll call for an orderly. Uh, you know what? Um… I’ll — I’ll take care of it myself. If you say so. I do. Can you walk? Yeah, I think I can manage. What’s your name? Gordon. Hey, gordon. Let’s go this way, okay? Hey, trina, trina, look. The murphy-katz fellowship is very prestigious. It is prestigious, but that’s not the issue. I can’t leave ava right now. The gallery needs me more than ever. Well, ava said that she was gonna close the gallery until whoever attacked her is caught. So what’s this really about?

[ Sighs ] You didn’t ask me first. That’s fair. Trina, I was trying to do something nice for you while keeping you safe. Ava realizes that the guy with the hook is still out there, and it’s not safe for either one of you. Okay, I understand that you meant well, but why didn’t you talk to me first? I am a sophomore in college. I live at the dorms. I’m not a kid. I understand that. All I could think about was you working late nights at the gallery and no one there to look out for you. I look out for me. I know you had good intentions, curtis, but you don’t get to make decisions about my life. My dad doesn’t even get to do that anymore. And you’re certainly not my dad.

[ Footsteps approach ] Jordan: How’s it going? Uh, yeah, good. I’m just going over the forensics on ava’s injuries. Do you realize how much blood she lost? About 1 1/2 liters. Yeah. So her attacker would have been covered in her blood. That would be my assumption, yes. Is this about a potential suspect? Yeah, dex heller. I thought you already questioned him. I did. And? I don’t think he’s our guy, but… there was that sound that brando said he heard right before he was stabbed. Yeah, some sort of metallic clicking. Yeah. What about it? Josslyn heard the same thing in the alley behind charlie’S.

[ Grunting ] You’re working too hard, my friend. It could be the death of you. Dex is my employee. If he’s innocent, then he’s got nothing to worry about. Sorry, boss. Josslyn’s here. Let her in. I told you he’d see me. Hey. Oh, I’m so happy you’re here. Um… I need to see dex.

Finding out I might be a part of a whole new family… …it’s a lot to take in. You know, I missed out on a lot growing up. Things that I wanted I couldn’t get. And as soon as they seemed like they were within reach, they always turned out to either be wrong or just a complete disappointment. So, [Chuckles] Yeah. I don’t know if I really want to go down that road again. Okay, look, I know I’m not completely objective here, but you could do a lot worse than being related to mac. I mean, if you are a part of this family. And I am wildly prejudiced, but I’m not sure you could do any better. I-I mean, the three of you do look pretty cozy, but still, it — but still what? What difference does knowing make? Could make all the difference in the world. So let’s find out for sure. Ava: So what’s the latest? When can I get the hell out of here?

[ Chuckles ] You’re that anxious to get home, huh? Home? Don’t even know where that is now. Well, they say that home is where the heart is. Yeah, well, for now, I would settle for a breath of fresh air and a little moonlight. I think that can be arranged, maybe even with a little jazz music thrown in. That sounds heavenly.

[ Laughs ] I don’t know what I just walked in on here. Just a difference of opinion. Curtis was trying to help me, which I appreciate. But it wasn’t his decision to make. And I understand why your daughter feels this way. But, trina, I’m not gonna apologize for wanting to keep you safe. If I overstepped my boundaries, I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what your dad would have done. When your mother and i finally tie the knot, I’m gonna be your stepdad. Honey, that comes with responsibilities. So you think dex’s army dog tags could have made that metallic rattling sound that both josslyn and brando heard? Yeah, I mean, it’s a possibility. On the other hand, josslyn is pretty positive that when dex found her and ava at the quartermaines’, he was wearing a clean white t-shirt. And if he was ava’s attacker, he would’ve been covered in her blood. What if he ditched his clothes? I thought about that. So I got people re-canvassing the quartermaine property. And I got a search warrant to, uh, check dex’s apartment. You don’t sound optimistic. Ah, the timing is off. And josslyn was pretty positive that she doesn’t think dex could have done it. Does she have proof to back that up? No. But she does have good instincts. And I think in this case, her instincts could be right. Sonny: Have a seat. So why do you want to see dex? Who is he to you? When I found ava stabbed and bleeding at the quartermaines’, I screamed for help, and dex was the first person to show up. And he said that we had to get her to the hospital and we didn’t have time to wait for an ambulance. And that is the difference that saved ava’s life. And I heard that he left the pcpd with you. Dex works for me. You know that. Well, I also know that dex was near all three of the attacks, but he’s not the person that you’re looking for. What makes you so sure? When dex came over to help me with ava, he was wearing a clean white t-shirt. Of course, when we got to G.H., We were both covered in blood. But if dex had been the attacker, he would’ve had ava’s blood on him from the start. Could’ve changed his clothes, right? I don’t think there was time. I found ava moments after she had been attacked, and dex showed up a minute later. He didn’t do it, sonny. He didn’t do it to ava, brando, or diane. Now, where were we? Right. You were gonna answer some questions.

[ Grunts ]

epiphany: Hear it’s a full moon tonight. Yeah, I bet it’s shining over spoon island, too. Oh, I doubt it. Nothing ever really shines there. Not for long, anyway.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Clarinet playing ] Well, I guess I have a lot to think about. Trina, please don’t turn down this amazing opportunity because you’re mad at me or because I tried to help you. Noted. Be honest. Did I overstep? I-I don’t — I don’t really know. I mean, you know that I like taggert. I’m not trying to take his place. I just want trina to know that she can count on me, too. Mm. As we start to build our family together.

[ Chuckles nervously ] Oh. I know from my own experience how curtis deals with secrets and lies. And I’m telling you, don’t repeat my mistakes. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but one day, this will come back to haunt you.

[ Knock on door ] Come in. Hey, uh, just wanted to let you know I’m gonna take off for the night, but I’ll have my cell handy if you need anything. There’s nothing more we can do tonight except hope that diane wakes up after surgery and can tell us something else. Mm. I’ll see you in the morning. Yeah. Good night. Come on, spinelli. T-tell me the truth. If your algorithm is so foolproof, how could it match two obviously mismatched people like britt and cody? My program is not at fault. Forgive me, dear samantha. I know cody is an old friend of dante’S. But he coerced me into matching him with britt, and I am not sure his reasons were entirely romantic. There’s only one way to answer the question of whether or not you two are father and son, but you both have to agree on it. It’s time for a dna test. Gordon, before we get started, is there anything I need to know about your medical history? Uh… you don’t have to worry about all the doctorly motions, cuz. You know what to do. Gordon, why don’t you go ahead and lay yourself back down?

[ Groaning ] Lucky you. You’re not gonna feel a thing. It’s nice of you to look out for dex. I’ll let him know next time I see him. Frank, can you drive, uh, josslyn to carly’s or her dorm or wherever she’d like to go? That’s okay. I’ll make sure that my sister gets home safe. Thanks.

[ Scoffs ] Frank: Come with me. You surprised me. It won’t happen again. Stay away from me, freak. You have a somewhat limited range of motion, and I can always call for backup. At times, I really enjoy my work. This is one.

[ Knock on door ] What’s going on? We’re in a holding pattern. I got to do some fact-checking. Stay on call. Understood.

[ Door closes ] Saved by the bell. For now, anyway. Hm. Don’t you worry. I’ll be back to finish what I started.

Sally: [ Sighs ]

[ Chuckles ] You beat me here.

Nick: Yeah, I did.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: Have a seat.

Sally: Thanks.

Nick: Really glad you said yes to this.

Sally: I always love having dinner with a colleague. Work’s really exciting right now, so there’s so much to discuss.

[ Door opens ]

[ Door closes ]

Adam: Hey there.

Chelsea: Oh. Hi.

Adam: How you doing? Listen, I’m actually glad that i into you.

Chelsea: Yeah?

Adam: I would like for you to reconsider my proposition. A little getaway with connor and me. Nothing major, just a weekend trip, and it doesn’t have to be an amusement park since that idea was clearly not working for you. And it’s not just about you. I think it would be good for the three of us. So, what do you say?

Victoria: We need to talk.

Billy: What’s wrong?

Victoria: [ Sighs ] I went home to spend some time with johnny. I-I thought that we could just hang out, that he might need some reassurance or some comforting after the news we gave him, but he’s — he won’t even look at me. He won’t eat anything. He’s completely shutting me out.

Billy: I called him. I texted him. He’s not getting back to me at all.

Victoria: He’s holed up in his room, playing video games online with his friends. He’s got the door closed. I can hear him in there…

Billy: Well —

Victoria: …Acting like nothing’s happened.

Billy: Trying to distract himself.

Victoria: Yeah, I know that’s what he’s doing, billy. He’s furious with us, and this is his way of letting off steam. But this situation with chelsea is not gonna go anywhere. He’s gonna have to deal with it sooner or later.

Billy: Did you get anything out of him at all?

Victoria: No, of course not. Nothing new, except for the fact that he wishes that we hadn’t told him that chelsea’s his biological mom. He wants nothing to do with her. And, honestly, I feel the same way.

Billy: I don’t blame you.

Victoria: And get this — the woman had the nerve to barge into my office and imply that we’re not doing enough, and her helpful suggestion is that we all work together to nudge johnny into a relationship with her.

Billy: You got to be kidding. What is wrong with that woman?

Victoria: A lot is wrong with her. The whole episode was just insidious.

Billy: I talked to her, vick. I told her that he was very upset by the news and that he needed some space. I mean, I cannot believe that she went to you and kept pushing.

Victoria: Yeah, well, she did, and it was obnoxious. I had to threaten her practically to get her to leave.

Billy: I’m sorry that you had to go through that.

Victoria: I’m starting to think that this is only the beginning. I think we made a terrible mistake.

[ Doorbell rings ]

Diane: I hope it’s not a bad time.

Jack: No, the timing is great. I just poured myself a drink. Come on in.

Diane: Okay. I come bearing gifts. Well, actually, a gift, for harrison. He broke his favorite dump truck on our playdate and I found the exact same one and I thought i would get it into his hands as soon as possible.

Jack: Well, isn’t that nice? Harrison is already upstairs in his, uh, bedtime routine with the nanny, but I’ll make sure he gets this first thing in the morning and that he knows it’s from his dee dee.

Diane: Oh, well, thank you for that.

Jack: No sweat. For what it’s worth, he was in a very chipper mood when he said good night, so I think the worst of the broken truck trauma is behind us.

Diane: [ Chuckles ] Well, that’s good.

Jack: Boy, you’ve been in a spending mood today. First the gift basket for phyllis and now this.

Diane: Could we please not talk about phyllis?

Jack: Okay. I didn’t mean to start anything, especially since phyllis has agreed to a cease-fire. Though I’m not sure it’s because of the basket, no matter how artfully arranged it was.

Diane: Well, who knows what motivates that woman? And I’ve — I’ve given up trying to figure it out.

Jack: I’m a little surprised to see you this stressed. I thought you had agreed to accept phyllis at her word that war behind her. I mean, what changed since then? Uh, everybody seemed so optimistic.

[ Cellphone pings ]

Diane: [ Sighs ] Excuse me.

[ Sighs heavily ]

Jack: Okay, it’s obvious something is going on. Talk to me. What is it?

Diane: You’re right. I — I used the gift for harrison as an excuse to — to see you.

Jack: About what?

Diane: Well, maybe offer me some of that liquid courage, and I — I just might tell you.

Billy: That really pisses me off. I mean, how could she mislead us on her intentions in that way?

Victoria: Seriously? This really surprises you, that a former professional con artist would lie to get what she wants?

Billy: I was fully convinced that the reason why she wanted us to tell johnny is that so he wouldn’t be blindsided.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] I knew it, billy. I knew that chelsea was gonna want more. I knew it in my gut, and then that’s why I asked if we could just take things slowly, to just not rush into things. That’s what I wanted, but I went against my better instinct. I went with the program, and now here we are.

Billy: Okay, I think we need to remind ourselves why we went along with chelsea’s request in the first place, and that’s because there’s a lot of people in our inner circle that know the truth about johnny. And he is old enough to understand, and it’s better that it comes from us and not a random person in a situation that can’t be controlled by us. And maybe that’s why he’s upset — because he feels everyone around him knew and he didn’T.

Victoria: Right. I know. I know. I heard the argument from chelsea. I heard it already. And it was fine in theory, but this is reality. I mean, I wish that I had been more adamant about waiting. I wish that I had just…

[ Sighs ] Because we answered questions that johnny hadn’t even asked.

Billy: Not yet, and there might be a day that he’s going to want to know where his genes came from or the fact that connor is his brother and not just his cousin.

Victoria: Billy, he may. He might.

[ Sighs ] We asked our son if he wanted to know who his biological mother was, and he said no. What if he preferred to go through the rest of his life keeping that door permanently closed? Did we ever consider that possibility?

Billy: [ Sighs ] If you’re wondering if I’m questioning our decision, yeah, I am. But all we’re trying to do is save johnny from feeling like we’re hiding something from him. Or that he was unwanted or abandoned.

Victoria: Yes, but now, instead, he just feels confused and he feels vulnerable because we forced him to face something that he explicitly did not want to. And all of it because it’s what chelsea wanted.

Chelsea: Why don’t you and connor make it a father/son trip? I’m sure he’d enjoy spending quality time with you since you parked him at the ranch with his grandparents.

Adam: I didn’t park our son, chelsea. I see him every day.

Chelsea: It wasn’t a slam, adam. You needed space from victor. I get it.

Adam: Something really is wrong, isn’t it? I’m guessing that caffeine and sugar aren’t going to help. So…how about I buy you dinner and we can talk about it?

Chelsea: No, thanks. I’m not hungry. And I don’t feel like talking. I’ve been talking a lot — all day, actually — and it doesn’t seem like anyone cares what i have to say, so…

Adam: Okay. Well, then do it for me. I could use the company, and maybe some good food will perk up your appetite.

Chelsea: I doubt that.

Adam: I would consider it a favor. I’m tired of sitting at the bar, eating alone, tired of room service. Besides, connor has been hounding me about this new console, some virtual-reality thing.

Chelsea: Yeah, he’s been nagging me about that, too.

Adam: Mm-hmm. Well, I’m a little leery about him gaming so much. It could cut into his studying time.

Chelsea: Yeah, I mean, i guess we could make it work. We just have to set strict limits. But I’m inclined to say no because a distraction like that can be a slippery slope.

Adam: Well, whatever we do, i think it’s important to present a united front.

Chelsea: Agreed.

Adam: Okay, well, tell you what — how about you come out for a bite with me and we will stick to connor, our favorite subject, and we will not venture into anything else. Promise.

Chelsea: Okay. For the sake of our son, I will join you.

Nick: Well, I got to hand it to you, sally. You managed to win over the marketing team, all those people who were calling for your head after you missed that very important meeting. And I’m just dying to know how you did that.

Sally: Mm. Simple. I was candid and up-front. I called myself out, i apologized, I took full responsibility, and then i dazzled them with my brilliant ideas and my endless charm.

Nick: Well, I have no doubt about that.

Sally: I actually learned that from you. I’m kind of embarrassed to admit that being honest felt like a nel but you have been very up-front with me since the beginning. And it was very refreshing.

[ Chuckles ] So I figured I’d give it a whirl.

Nick: Well, you nailed it.

Sally: I did, didn’t I?

Nick: Mm-hmm.

Sally: It’s been my M.O. For so long to always be working an angle.

Nick: Well, now that that’s all behind you, what is your plan for success moving forward?

Sally: I would like to change my whole approach and actually learn from my past mistakes and not just let myself fall into the same trap again and again.

Nick: Give me some specifics.

Sally: I have a tendency to be a bit impulsive. I like to take on a new challenge without really thinking things through.

Nick: You do that often?

Sally: [ Chuckles ] 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: Well, I guess that’s why we make a good team. You do you, I do me, and in the end, we wind up inspiring each other.

Now glossy hair starts

with your shampoo.

Sally: So, I hope I’m not venturing too far afield, but I’m curious about your past.

Nick: My professional past.

Sally: Well, yeah, since we agreed to keep this dinner strictly about business.

Nick: That’s right. We did.

Sally: Tell me about new hope. I know it was a passion project for you and you poured your heart and soul into that organization. You helped create something important and did some lasting good for the community.

Nick: Was there a question coming?

[ Both laugh ]

Sally: How has it been to leave that behind for the business world?

Nick: Uh, you know, the work we do at new hope is very special. I’m proud of what we built. When I went back to newman, i left it in very capable hands. But I’m still on the board, so it’s not like I walked away forever.

Sally: Understood.

Nick: Very happy where I am right now. I needed a change.

Sally: Well, I’m glad to hear that. I hope you’re not overworking yourself, though.

Nick: No. Coming back to newman was, uh… invigorating. And no one is more surprised than I am.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: You should know you needn’t bring gifts for harrison or fabricate some reason for talking to me.

Diane: Thank you for saying that. I’m still so focused on getting back into people’s good graces, I feel like I’m walking on eggshells half the time.

Jack: Okay, tell me what’s got you so wound up.

Diane: I need to know something, jack, and I need you to be honest with me. Have you abandoned the war against me, too?

Jack: Aren’t we past this?

Diane: No, no, not completely. I need to hear you say it, that — that you believe that I’ve worked hard to make amends for my mistakes, that — that I’ve changed, that — that you forgive me.

Jack: I am willing to say that I can forget the past and start a new beginning with a clean slate. And I’d like to think that would be enough.

Diane: [ Sighs ] But is it really a clean slate? You know, hit zero and reset, a — a total start-over?

Jack: The answer is yes.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Jack: Unless what I overheard phyllis say is true, that there is something about your life in los angeles that could be your undoing.

Billy: I think it’s a waste of energy blaming chelsea. Our priority right now should be taking care of, johnny.

Victoria: Well, it’s easier to blame her or even blame myself for agreeing to it than it is to watch him suffer. I hate it.

Billy: I know. It’s the worst feeling in the world.

Victoria: I want to make it better for him, but I — I have no idea how.

Billy: Well, we’ll figure it out together. We’ll figure out a way to ease his pain.

Victoria: I think there’s a part of johnny that’s scared. I mean, the fact that we presented this to him without any warning, he thinks it’s for another reason. I know he’s not going to come out and say that he’s frightened, but I know him. He is.

Billy: Then if he’s scared that things are going to change, that his world is going to change, then we do everything we can to prove to him that it won’T. He is our son, vick. No matter what we tell him about chelsea, that’ll never change.

Victoria: I’ve told him that. And I’m going to keep telling him that. But how do I make him believe it? Not just know it and believe it, but how do I make him feel it?

Billy: I’m going to reach out to him and we’re going to hang out and we’re either going to talk about it or we’re going to not talk about it. We’ll do whatever he wants. And maybe it’s time that we have some family counseling, the three of us. Look, we can’t unring this bell.

Victoria: If only that were possible. But you’re right. We just have to keep the lines of communication open.

Billy: In the spirit of that, there is something that I should share with you.

Nick: Thank you. So, are you a chocoholic?

Sally: Yes. But not to the exclusion of anything else on this menu. The desserts here are fabulous.

Nick: Yes, they are.

Sally: You pick something, and I will just steal a bite.

Nick: Bread pudding with the bourbon sauce, two spoons, no stealing.

Sally: Perfect. Alright. My turn to ask you a question.

Sally: You just did, about my dessert preference. Sorry, but you have reached your question limit for the evening.

Nick: [ Chuckles ]

Sally: I’m kidding. Ask me anything. I am an open book.

Nick: But only about your career — because we are keeping this professional.

Sally: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Adam: Good evening.

Sally: Hello.

Nick: Adam. Chelsea.

Chelsea: Hi.

Adam: Well, enjoy your evening.

Sally: I don’t care what’s been said. He definitely knows.

Nick: Yeah.

Sally: Or at least suspects.

Nick: Let’s get out of here then. Let’s go get dessert somewhere else. That gelato place down the street’s really good.

Sally: And miss the bread pudding? Not on your life. Announcer: Type 2 diabetes?

Nick: Look, if this is uncomfortable for you with adam over there having dinner, let’s just get out of here.

Sally: I mean, just when i convince myself it isn’T… it is. Which is stupid because I’ve moved on.

Nick: You sure about that?

Sally: [ Chuckles ] Maybe I should try that forthright honesty I’ve been so eager to practice.

Nick: Yeah, let’s see what you got. Go for it.

Sally: I have made it clear to adam that he and I are through, that I’m focused on my work, that he hurt me, and that there is no way forward for us.

Nick: I know you told him that. And you told yourself that, too.

Sally: And yet it… this — it’s just complicated and confusing.

Nick: I mean, we better be careful. We’re getting very close to talking about non-business stuff.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Adam: Sally’s not wasting any time cozying up to the boss.

Chelsea: Whatever.

Adam: You just passed up an opportunity to take a dig at sally.

Chelsea: So?

Adam: Okay, this is not just a mood. Something is seriously wrong. What is going on, chelsea?

Chelsea: Okay, you promised we would only talk about connor.

Adam: [ Sighs ] Fine. Well, then let me try to raise your spirits by reminding you what an amazing kid he is. We both have screwed up, but he is the one thing that we have done right. And you were a hell of a mom, chelsea. I hope you hear that and you believe it because it’s true.

Chelsea: [ Chuckles ] I wish I could believe that. It feels like there’s a lot of things right with connor and I’m doing everything wrong with johnny.

Adam: Why are you bringing up johnny?

Chelsea: Earlier today, billy and victoria had a conversation with him. They told johnny I’m his biological mother.

Billy: I think you should know chelsea came by with a gift for johnny.

Victoria: She wants to buy her way in his life now?

Billy: I told her it was inappropriate and that now was not the right time.

Victoria: She thinks she’s gonna badger us into submission? Is that her plan?

Billy: Look, I get it. I know you’re upset. I was, too. But when I thought about it, I think maybe this is chelsea’s idea of an offering.

Victoria: What do you mean?

Billy: The gift. It’s a blanket. A baby blanket she had while she was pregnant with johnny.

Victoria: [ Scoffs ] She’s held onto it all these years, and now she just wants to force it on him?

Billy: Maybe she was trying to find a way to show him that he was always loved and that the decision to give up her parental rights wasn’t easy. But she did it because she knew it was best for him.

Victoria: This isn’t about chelsea and what she wants or needs, billy.

Billy: I understand that, but it’s still — she wants to let him know that he was always loved. It’s a positive message, isn’t it?

Victoria: No, I warned her not to use any subtle attempts to influence johnny. She won’t listen to me. Where do we draw the line? There it is, even from you — the lack of trust, the wondering if I’m hiding something, all because of some snarky remark from phyllis. No, I-I thought we put this subject to rest, but apparently not.

[ Glass thuds ] Will I ever get past all these doubts and suspicions?

Jack: I’d say that depends on you.

Diane: I have done everything that I can think of to prove that my intentions are good, that I — that I came back to genoa city for all the right reasons. But having to constantly defend myself about these — these never-ending innuendoes and accusations, it’s exhausting. I mean, I can’t go anywhere in this town without running into someone who wishes I’d stayed dead.

Jack: Diane, you have earned that reaction. You came back to a town where you made more than your fair share of enemies. You’re could have stayed in L.A.

Diane: No, I couldn’T. I had to come back because this is where kyle and harrison are. And you. The only people whose opinions of me I care about. The only ones who I thought accepted me. I mean, is — is there another shoe that could drop? I mean, I-I certainly don’t think so. But I live in fear that one of those enemies is going to find something that’s going to change the way that you and kyle see me, wh-whether or not it’s — it’s even true.

[ Exhales sharply ] I guess i just didn’t realize how, uh — how hard it would be to redeem myself, how long this battle would take.

[ Crying ]

Jack: I can see this has been tough on you. My advice? Take the clean slate kyle and i have offered you. Let that fortify you from here on.

Diane: Thank you. It means a lot. I appreciate you so much. You have the least reasons of anyone to make me feel worthy, believed, safe. And yet you do.

Jack: I’m glad that’s so.

Diane: Me too. Are you tired of clean clothes that just don’t smell clean?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Jack: When you asked for a reset, I was agreeing to a peaceful co-existence as kyle’s parents, as harrison’s grandparents, the two of us working together.

Diane: That’s all been wonderful, but —

Jack: It has. It has. I absolutely agree. But anything more than that, I… I just don’t want you misinterpreting my friendship for something else entirely.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Billy: I am fine with setting limits, as long as we don’t give up on johnny accepting chelsea because I don’t think that’s the right thing to do.

Victoria: I’m not giving up. I made it very clear from the beginning that johnny gets to decide, and he’s made his — he’s made his wishes very clear.

Billy: Look, vick, I’m not talking about putting the two of them in a room and letting them hash it out. He’s a 13-year-old kid. He’s processing a ton of feelings right now, but they might change, okay? It’s been known to happen.

Victoria: You know, I also made it very clear to you and chelsea that johnny is the one that drives any future relationship.

Billy: What —

Victoria: And she — she agreed to the ground rules, and now she’s the one overstepping. She is the one who’s taking it too far, too much, too soon. And I thought that you and i were in agreement on this!

Billy: We are.

Victoria: Chelsea changed our lives for the good when she stepped aside as johnny’s mother, and I will always be grateful to her for that. But she doesn’t get to decide this, and she sure as hell doesn’t get to force a relationship on our son that he doesn’t want!

Adam: Why would billy and victoria decide to tell johnny that?

Chelsea: Because I persuaded them to.

Adam: But why? And why now?

Chelsea: I didn’t want him finding out down the line that his biological mom lived in the same town and everybody knew about it except him.

Adam: I can’t — I can’t believe you didn’t tell me this. This is huge. And it affects connor, too. I mean, how could you not warn me about this?

Chelsea: I didn’t know if they’d even go through with it, adam, okay? I wanted to see how it would all pan out before I came to you. And don’t worry. I didn’t talk to connor about it. I wouldn’t do that without conferring with you first.

Adam: Well, thank you for that, at least.

Chelsea: Also, I promised billy and victoria I wouldn’t tell anybody until they saw how johnny reacted.

Adam: And?

Chelsea: It seems he’s upset. He doesn’t want me in his life. At all.

Adam: [ Sighs ]

Nick: Alright, you want to talk about you and me or adam?

Sally: No. Shoptalk only. Nothing about the rest. At least, not tonight. Not now. Is that okay?

Nick: Yeah, of course. We’ll do whatever you want.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Adam: I realize how big this is for you. I had no idea that you were dealing with this. It must bring up a lot of stuff that you’ve kept buried for a long time. And I know what it took to bring johnny into this world because i was there. I know how scared you were. And how brave. Yeah, it was a complicated time. But I also know that you wanted to do what’s best for johnny. And that’s why you made the hard decision that you did.

Chelsea: Yeah.

Adam: I respected you for it then. But I also understand it’s not a choice that you make just once. You have to live with it for the rest of your life.

Chelsea: Adam, I’m not a bad person. I want to do the right thing. But it’s like I always make the wrong choice or — or — or love the wrong person or — or go down the wrong path. It’s like I’m — I’m searching for these answers, and I’ve convinced myself that I’ve found them, and then ultimately i realize that I haven’T. And I’m starting to think i never will.

If you have type 2 diabetes

or high blood pressure…

Adam: I really wish you would stop being so hard on yourself. You know, maybe you do need a fresh start somewhere away from genoa city. I mean, we both know how toxic that this place can be.

Chelsea: What about connor?

Adam: We can work something out when it comes to him.

Chelsea: What does that even mean?

Adam: I’m not gonna let you take our son away, chelsea. I’m — I’m never gonna do that. But we could come up with an arrangement. Okay, I want you to hear me when I say this. Connor needs you to be strong, healthy, and happy. You claim that you can’t find answers, but maybe you can’t find them here.

Chelsea: I can’t leave town, adam. I finally have the opportunity to potentially spend some time with johnny. You know? He just found out who I am.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Jack, I heard you come racing in. What does the matter, uh, Julie tell me, uh, is, is Doug still taking painkillers for his shoulder? What well known, not since last year. Why I found these on the floor.

Oh, well I don’t understand this because we never refilled the prescription. I think Jennifer did. Doug’s fine now and

Oh no, go ahead and tell me that Jennifer is taking painkillers again. I didn’t wanna believe her, but I think she’s right.

I swear I’m gonna make him paid it. Anyone who ever hurt you, anyone who ever even thought about hurting you, I.

I promise you. I promise you. Just a sweet girl.

Sorry. They hurt my baby.

Yeah. He’ll be with Abigail soon. Now. Chad won’t take long now. Yeah.

Are you all right? Just tell that time a bitch is bad.

Like sand through the hour, so are of,

It’s too bad he’s still kicking.

Looks like the rolls of reverse. Now, hog chap, how does it feel to be the one bleeding out in the grass this time? That is what’s called poetic justice. I’m glad I could provide that for you. Go to hell you first. Oh wait. How does it feel? Clyde? Knowing you are only moments away from damnation and there is nothing that you can do about it.

Agonizing, isn’t it? Not for me. I’m gonna relish every single second of it. We both are. When I found Abigail, she was still clean to life alone in the bedroom, who almost have felt like an eternity. Terrified every breath would be her last. Tonight. You are gonna pay back every single painful second. You hear me, Clyde?

Except in Abigail’s final moments, she was with someone that she loved. Someone that loved her. You will not be so lucky.

Ah, voicemail damnit EJ

reports are gunfire. The cemetery is where Abigail’s buried. Stay here. No way. I’m coming with you. Don’t argue. I’m. Go. I just got back to the police station. I spoke to Shawnee’s. My God. Hey jd, I gotta call you back.

Can you hear me?

Cough help.

What was that? I’m sorry. You’re gonna have to speak up. You can’t let me die. Did you hear something ej? Huh? Not a thing. I thought I did guess now. Must have been the wind. Must have been beautiful night, wouldn’t you say? So peaceful and quiet out here among the dead.

She wasn’t upstairs. She’s not in the kitchen. She’s not in the den. She’s not here. Jack, she’s not answering your phone. Well, maybe she put it on silent. Well, listen. Have you noticed any kind of change in her behavior recently? Well, yes. She’s grieving deeply over the loss of her daughter. We all are. Yes.

She’s changed. Damn. I went to voicemail. Uh, look, I need to go back and find her. I’ll go with you. No, no. Clearly you stay right here. You stayed with Doug. She might come home. All right. Thank you so much for all your help. I will let you know when I find her. Jennifer, we’re so worried about you. Was trying to call you.

Oh, sorry, I, I didn’t hear my phone. Oh, I don’t know where it is. I need to sit down. Jennifer. You all right?

Jennifer? What happened? Where have you been

when you stay with me? How you stay? You’re gonna be all right. You’re gonna make it okay?

Yeah. This is Commissioner Hernandez. I’m outside the police station right now. I need an ambulance right away.

Wish she’d bloody Hurry up. Have a Liverpool game on the dvr. I am no rush at all. Oh my God, is he? He’s alive. He’s.

Yeah, this is Detective Brady. I’m the Salem Cemetery and I got a gun check wound victim. I need, uh, medical assistance asap.

What the hell happened here? EJ as your lawyer? No, ej As your lawyer, I have to advise you not to say a word. You heard our detective mum’s the word and same goes for my brother as well. I’m sure Bell will also be representing him. Mm-hmm. I don’t need a lawyer. I have nothing to hide.

You were supposed to stay home, you said you weren’t feeling well. I wasn’t. I. Supposed to, then I spoke to Aha. Jennifer, look at me. Okay. You know that’s not possible, right? Yes, of course. I meant, I, I imagine speaking to Abigail, I was, I have just so upset that we haven’t found her killer. So I decided to see what was happening with Clyde when she, the police finally decided that Clyde is, He may have killed, couldn’t here, Jack, Like, look good.

Am I doing Just, just waiting here. So I, I decided I would drive to the police station and I, I would see what was going on. You drove in this condition. I’m, I’m, I was fine. I, I’m okay. I just started feeling a little dizzy, so I turned around and I came back. Thank, Thank God. Thank God you should have known Jack.

Please tell me did they catch him? Yes,

He murdered our daughter, Chuck. Tell me he has to answer for that. He will. The police are handling it. Jennifer, there’s something that we need to handle right now. God, what? What is it?

This.

Oh, uh, okay. Remember what I said about it being a quiet night. Looks like I spoke too soon. What’s going on? Um, two ambulances just pulled in downstairs, so it looks like my break is officially. Okay, Doctor, get out your hair. I’ll see you back home, man. Yeah.

Oh, Michael Gwen. Once I spoke to Nancy about the vanilla after shave, I realized that, that the person who stabbed son and killed my wife wasn’t Craig. It was quiet and, and I was even more convinced after Ray told me Clyde’s Allen by fell. And so you decided to take matters into your own hands? Yeah, I did.

Oh, well, I got the gun for my family safe. I intercepted Clyde at the city hall and then I took him to the cemetery to Abby’s grave, and that made him from Fess Crimes Crimes, and he did it, Sean. He did it. He killed my wife. Why? Why do I just send a message to ej? Sort of, except Abby was in his original target.

She was in the wrong place at the wrong time. So when Clyde broke into our house, he didn’t intend to kill my wife. It was after yours. What?

I don’t understand and why would Clyde want to kill Bell? Several weeks before Abby died, Clyde plan to bug at Mansion. Mansion. It must been the night he came over claiming he wanted to go into business with. From that moment on, he was keeping tabs on it. He wanted leverage to use against me to keep me quiet about how he was responsible for my shooting.

Then Clyde’s Worst fear was confirmed when he heard a conversation between you and Bell. He heard me confide in her. I still cannot believe how reckless you are. Are you put my wife in danger. What is how stupid? He didn’t like Clyde was listening. Okay, And I wanted to help. Clyde wanted to send a message.

He wanted to show how easily he could get to e. Or anyone around him. Bella was living with us at the time, so he came for her there. Oh my God. Except you weren’t there. No one was, except for Abby. She had, she found him in the hall. She started asking questions. She was brave. Um, stubborn, you know, No nonsense.

She just knew too much. I’m so sorry, Chad. I, I don’t know what to say. Okay. So you got cly to confess. So then what happened next? While I was upset, as you may have guessed, he caught me off guard, knocked the gun away starting strangling me. I, uh, I just kept thinking what he, what he had done to Abigail and I picked up the gun and ended it.

EJ had no choice. Lyde was gonna kill Chad. She’s right. If EJ having to showed up, I would be with Abby right now. Okay. I’ve heard enough for now. If I need to hang down the hospital, see if I can get some answers at. Assuming he’s still alive, may relieve. No, not yet. Need you to stay here. I just have some more questions for you.

Okay. Let me know what you find out. I love.

What’s that prescription? Painkillers, Killers. I found them here on the floor.

The label says they’re Dougs. Yes, but Doug stopped using them a year ago. Never refilled the prescription, but about a month ago, someone did. What are you saying, Julie? What are you accusing me of? Jennifer, you had an addiction to painkillers years ago. Jack. Years ago. Sweetheart, I’m not judging you. I am not.

I need you. I need you to talk to me. Jennifer, please tell me the truth.

Have you been abusing pills again?

I think I’m gonna be single.

Oh, hey. Um, why went to Gwen? I’m not sure I, uh, found her outside the police station. She was on the ground, uh, non-responsive and, um, there were tire tracks nearby. Well, someone hits her and just left. It looks like a hit and run. Yes, we would do something like that. Well, we’ll find them. Because of now we have no witnesses, so we don’t know much.

Pretty much told you everything. Oh, come wait. Just Jenna, just about to come. Poor guy mean after Abigail. I dunno what he’ll do if you lose another daughter. Should I go check on Jennifer? No. No. Just give her a minute. Okay. What do you think? I,

Uh, I’ve got some bad news. Jack is about when.

Feeling better? Yes. Thank you. Where’s Jack? Uh, Jack had to go and he wanted me to take care of you. He had to go winter. RA called from the hospital. The hospital, Gwen was brought into the emergency room earlier this evening. Gwe. What happened? I have no idea. Jack got that call. Hung up. Ran outta here.

He must be so worried. I hope that she’s

Gwen, She’s stable. Um, she has some broken bones and possibly a concussion, but. No internal bleeding and there doesn’t seem to be any damage to any of her major organs. So for now, she doesn’t need surgery. She regained consciousness. Like may I ask her some questions? Uh, no. She won’t be giving any statements yet cuz we have her sedated.

Okay. Sarah Jack’s not here yet. Um, would you be off? I sat Mr. I know he wouldn’t want it to be alone. Yeah, of course. Cool.

Okay. Um, I’ll see if we can find, uh, trash and, and we need to make sure that your story’s first when she hears. Do you think Chad and I will be charged with anything? No. Not if I can help it. Before you go. I went to apologize for what Sean was right. I put you in danger. I never should have told you about Clyde

if Clyde, he was there for you. Bell and I, I’ll tell you what I told Sean, Okay. You had no way of knowing that Clyde was listening. How could you and yeah, I practically forced it outta you. You aren’t good at that. Bottom line is you have no reason to apologize. I just wish that we would’ve, you know, that we could have stopped Clyde before a

Yeah, me too.

Hey, I just got your message EJ talk. Lied. Yeah, and according to him, he was just trying to save Chad’s. Where’s Weston now? Tr room five. Booking doctors. They extract the bullet.

Just the way you like it, cold and bitter. Thank you,

Chad.

Abigail,

It was my fault.

Ej, you don’t have to. No, don’t.

I knew ply was a threat to the family, and yet I kept it to myself. I should have put a thought to him. Immediately. Chad, I failed you. I failed Abigail, your kids. I failed the family and I never forgive myself. Chad, I am very sorry, but we’ve both made mistakes. And done things that we regret and there’s no point in keeping score.

Not now. That’s very generous of you. Before we clear the board, I have to thank you. Came to my rescue night, ej, and you saved my life.

Brother.

You welcome brother.

Well, now that that’s out of the way, um, I guess I can tell you. Tell me why tonight. I didn’t do that for you. What do you mean? I just wanted to shoot him.

I don’t know what you’ve been told Mr. Deborah, but I’ve never harmed a single. On your daughter’s prairie little head. I should have done You be mad enough to admit you did. You know, I do believe it’s in my best interest not to say another word until I have an attorney present. Just fine. It’s fine by me because I, I don’t need to say myself.

When you did was a speakable evil Abigail, when she was a mother to two beautiful children. She was a wife. She was a daughter. And you stall it all away. It will haunt me and the rest of my family for the rest of my life. And I want you. To be haunted too. Whenever you close your eyes, I want you to see her.

I wanna see what you did and I hope it kills you slowly and painfully. And in your last moments when you’re dying, you won’t begin to understand a fraction of the pain that you cost us. Not a fraction bravo there Jack as a hell of performance. But you know, I think you better off. What did you say?

Let me see. Oh yeah, I can see her man. She was beautiful.

She’s not Angel Jay. That little slut cheated on my boy. No.

Hey, Gwen, it’s, it’s, I dunno if you can hear me, but I just wanted you to know your father’s on his way and until then, I’m gonna keep you. If that’s okay with you,

and I also wanted you to know that you’re gonna be right. Sarah says you’re very lucky that you and I both know that look has nothing to do with it. It’s tough as hell. One of the toughest women I’ve ever. That’s why in no time you’re gonna be up and complaining about the groty food and grumpy.

Sandra. Hey there, Alice. What’s going on? What’s she doing here? Where is he? Ah, you’re in a bit of a scuffle. Yeah. But you fought, Bly, took down several men twice your size. You’re a, at University Hospital. You were a victim of a possible hit and run. Who’s,

Hey. Sorry to interrupt. She just regained consciousness. That’s great. Hey, Glen, think you’d be up to answering a few questions? Sure. Okay, thank you. Listen, I just want you to know that I’m gonna do everything in my power to find the person that did this to you.

I should go, Jack needs me. No, no, no. Jack needs you to rest, darling. Jack needs. To take care of yourself. I’m fine, Julie. I’m fine. No, sweetheart, you’re not, Jack wasn’t around the last time that you started using painkillers, but I was.

That’s the reason we moved back into the house, Doug and me. Do you remember that? Or was to take care of you? I remember and I am grateful, but that is not what’s happening here. Jennifer Rose, you’re not fooling anybody, especially not me. You’ve been struggling. How long has it been?

A few weeks. Why didn’t you talk to. I was ashamed. You have nothing to be ashamed of. We don’t judge you. We wanna help you.

Maggie tried to help. Maggie knew about these bills? Yeah,

she, she found them in my purse. Mm-hmm.

It was, It was my accident. The bottle wasn’t full. I hadn’t taken any. She watched me throw them out. Then she took me to a meeting. Then I came back and I got them out of the trash and they took one. Then I took another in another.

Until the ball was empty.

Listen to me, Jennifer, we all love you very much

and after everything you’ve been through, I don’t presume to imagine the pain that you have been going. But I do know in this life there is nothing more tragic than when a parent loses a child, especially so son, So senselessly.

I know you’re struggling, darling. You’ve been struggling just to get through the name.

But remember, Your life is important to your life, how you live it, that’s important to all of us, and it’s especially important, those precious grandchildren of yours because with their mother gone, You, my darling, are the most important woman in their lives. They need you now. They’re gonna need. For a long, long time,

we all are.

Would you please give me a hug?

Yeah. Hey, you sure you’re ready?

My head’s finally starting to clear,

Gwen. Thank God you’re alright baby. Thank you so much for coming. Of course. Tell, tell me what happened. Yeah, we were just getting to that. So when you remember anything about tonight, Um,

I, I was, I was walking to the car park at the station. This car came speeding towards me. Oh my God, My God. Yeah. It, it didn’t swerve. It just, it happened so fast. Do you think it was,

That’s possible. I suppose. Could you see the driver?

What do you say? You get some sleep. Oh yeah. Thank you. Yes. And Julie, I am so sorry that I worried you and God, I cannot believe that I went driving in that condition that it’s just, it’s not me. You know that. I do know that.

It’s all such a blur. Well, I’m just so glad that you’re back home safe and sound. You know, you’re very lucky that you didn’t hurt yourself or anyone else. Let’s go darling.

No, I, I didn’t see the driver. I was God, the headlights. They, they blinded me and

Daddy would do something like this and then just drive off and outside of a police station.

I’m just sitting here Jack. What good am I doing? Just, just waiting here. So I, I decided I would drive to the police station and I would see what was going on. You drove in this condition.

Chad told me that Abigail wasn’t your intended victim, that you were planning on killing my.

I do believe I have the ride to remain silent. Now you do. And I’m gonna read you your rights really soon, you know? But first I want you to know one thing. Can’t wait. I’m never gonna rest until you’re back in Statesville and this time. You’re never getting out.

Well, how did it Gorok? Uh, unfortunately she’s gone for the day, but I will speak to her on your behalf tomorrow morning. Have you talked to Sean? Yes. Um, Clyde is gonna live, That’s a disappointment, but he will be shipped after Statesville for the rest of. And you know the truth and hopefully that brings you a little peace of mind.

Oh, peace of mind.

Yeah.

Abby finally be, finally gets some justice. She would want that. Yeah. Especially. Our kids different. All of us. Sorry.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Door opens ] Portia, what are you doing? Curtis told me about your little “divorce papers” chat. Jordan, how dare you? How dare I what? Keep insinuating yourself into curtis’ life. Trying to make him doubt me. If curtis doubts you, then you’re doing that all on your own. Ava? What, are you trying to break out of here? Hi. Come on. You should be in your room. Yeah, I couldn’t agree more. But my sadistic doctors tell me they won’t release me until I can do a couple of laps around the nurses’ station here on my own, but… would you mind helping me to that bench there, please? Not at all. Thank you. And when you catch your breath, I’ll lead you back to your room. Mnh. Oh, that room. I hate that room. It’s just a constant reminder that I’m here at this hospital because somebody tried to kill me. Well, ava, you’re not the only one. Yeah, I know. I heard. Brando corbin. And diane miller. She was attacked earlier tonight. Hey, I’m really sorry about our change of plans. No, don’t be sorry. I really like a nice, quiet evening with you. Well, james and bailey lu are fast asleep. And once georgie gets settled, we will have this place to ourselves. I like the sound of that. Are you okay? I will be, once diane is out of the or and making a full recovery. Yeah, me too. I haven’t heard anything yet. So…diane was attacked in brando’s garage? Well, that’s what my mom said. She and gregory found her. Oh, man, that must’ve been rough. I know that diane and alexis are best friends. So, I mean, how — how’s your — how’s your mom doing? Well, as usual, my mom doesn’t want to talk about herself because she’s so focused on diane. She’s actually at the paper right now determined to do something, anything that will help. My mom did want me to check in with her if there were any updates. What was diane doing in brando’s garage alone? You know, all I know is that diane wasn’t alone. Dex was with her.

[ Knock on door ] Yeah? Detective? Yeah? Your stepsister is asking to speak to you. Uh…alright, just give me a minute, and then you can send her in, okay?

[ Door opens ] Josslyn jacks. Hey. Uh, can you get this to the desk sergeant, have him take it to the commissioner? You got it thank you. Hey. What’s, uh — what’s going on? It’s about the attack on brando. Oh, joss, I already told you, I-I can’t talk about it. I know, and I’m not here to ask you to share your evidence. Okay. I’m here to share some evidence of my own.

[ Grunting ] Boss. You got this all wrong. Why should i believe anything that comes out of your lying mouth? You told me to lock up. Okay, that’s when I found her. I swear. You’re lying to me again! You obviously don’t take me seriously! That’s a huge mistake! Huge! A dental tool is round for a reason.So is an oral-B. Round cleans better by surrounding each tooth. So clean, you’ll feel like you just left the dentist. Oral-B. Brush like a pro. Pain hits fast.So get relief fast. Only tylenol rapid release gels have laser drilled holes. They release medicine fast for fast pain relief. And no w get reliefwithout a pill with tylenol dissolve packs. Relief without the water. What does that even mean? Now, what am I doing that’s so untrustworthy? You know what I’m referring to. I am so sick of your pointed comments, your little jabs you keep throwing at me. If there’s something that you want to say to me, you come right out and you say it. Alright, then. Is curtis trina’s father? Trina: Ava. Hi. I hope you didn’t get out of bed to wait for me. Mnh-mnh. No, I was ordered out of bed.

[ Chuckles ] Hey, curtis, do you think that, um, trina and I could have a few minutes to speak in private? Trina, where are joss and cam? I spoke with rory. He said he left you all at hatchet range. Oh, they had things to do. Trina, there is a lunatic stabbing people in port charles. You can’t be walking around here alone. Ahem.

[ Clears throat ] Hi. Um, is georgie all set? Yes, uh, she’s all tucked in and ready for her good night… kiss from mom. Okay, well, promise me you’ll let me know if there’s any news on diane. Of course. Spinelli, for what it’s worth, I’m sorry about your friend. You’re very kind. Spinelli, buddy, good to see you. I wish I could say the same. State your business. Well, maxie jones lives here, right? I need to talk to her. Okay, uh, that’s not going to happen.

[ As gandalf ] You shall not pass. So, uh, dex had diane’s blood on his hands? Literally. I mean, that makes sense. He — he did help josslyn get ava to the hospital, so maybe he was just, you know, trying to help diane. But where was he when diane was attacked? He said he didn’t see anything. How is that even possible? Do you know if — if, uh, dex was brought in for questioning? No, I’m — I mean, I assume he will be, but I don’t — I don’t know for sure, no. Well, let’s just hope that diane… comes through. Yeah, especially since brando went up against the same attacker and lost. I was in the alley behind charlie’s just before brando. I mean, why him and not me? Look, joss, there’s no reason to believe that you were or are a target, okay? Ava, brando, and diane all have ties to sonny. So do I. Right, but that link to sonny is just one avenue of the investigation. That’s why I’m here so late. I’m trying to figure this all out. But what’s the evidence you said you got? I remembered something that happened right before I left the alley. Maybe it’s not important. Well, why don’t you tell me what it is? We can figure out if it’s important or not. Did you see something? No. It was something that I heard.

[ Grunting ]

[ Coughs, breathing heavily ] Sonny: Okay. That’s enough. For now. I told you… everything. I disagree. I’ve never been able to shake the fact that you were hiding something, but I gave you the benefit of the doubt. And now you were either nearby before or after three attacks. Can you answer me that? I’m not a killer. Okay? I-I tried to save ava and diane. How can I make you believe me? Just answer my question! Why’d you start working for me? When I was — when I was subbing at volonino’s, I-I saw how you ran things, how everyone respected you. No, no, no, no, no, no. I don’t believe that. You — you were always pushy, trying to be around me. Why? That’s because I admire you. I respect you. You — you built yourself up from nothing. I — why?!I want to learn from you! So you can use it against me?!

Really should be nicer to me, considering I have information that could put you in some really hot water. Look, I already bought your silence by tampering with britt westbourne’s society setups experience to falsely match her with you. You can’t keep holding what you know over my head. Stay out of my way and I won’t have to. My daughter is none of your business! You’re the one barging into my office, making it my business. And I certainly think trina’s paternity is curtis’ business. I don’t need a lecture! I don’t need a lecture from you, jordan! Both trina and curtis deserve to know the truth. Look, I’m not your enemy, portia. I’m not saying this to hurt you. But the truth has a way of coming out. This is about curtis and how you keep running around behind him. That’s what this is about. Why don’t you just admit it? Admit it. Tell me the truth. Tell me the truth. You want your ex-husband back, don’t you? Trina, you should know better than to walk around alone these days. I do. Sorry. I just found parking. The garage was packed.

[ Sighs ] What’d I miss? My dad was with me. I’m not stupid. I should get back to my room. Trina, would you — would you give me a hand? Yes, of course. Thank you. What was that? That was me possibly being a bit hasty. Look, I was just trying to keep trina safe. I didn’t mean to overstep. Okay. No, it’s cool. I mean, it’s too bad you never had kids. You got this dad thing down pat. Sorry about that. Georgie wanted me to check in her closet for monsters… oh. …Then read her two more stories, then check under her bed. She’s impossible. She’s not impossible. Resistance is earned a little bit at a time. And she’s this little girl who wants her mom all to herself. She will get over her… resistance? …Uh, shyness with you sometime in the not-so-distant future. I hope. Yeah, I hope so, too. So, here we are again.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Knock on door ] Hold that thought. Hi, sis. The day ava was attacked, you made sure you were the guy who delivered the corinthos coffee donation. Why were you so eager to visit… the quartermaine estate? Dex: I warned you he was digging

into my background. Yeah, I know. This was all part of the plan. Look, your past is part of the reason that I hired you. Because almost getting court-martialed for striking a superior officer is such a big selling point? In this case, yes. Knowing that you protected a family from an abusive man the same way that sonny wishes that he could’ve protected his mother from his stepfather will only further his opinion of you, and he’ll trust you more. Sonny: Looks to me like you were casing the place, trying to figure out how to attack ava. I wanted to deliver the donation because I thought you would be there. Like I said, I-I want to prove myself. You believe him? Me neither. What are you gonna do? Just keep beating me until I confess to something I didn’t do? No, no, no, no, not at all. I’m gonna bring in a ringer. Someone who’s known to get results.

Is dex heller in custody? He left? How are you? Deeply concerned for diane, distraught that this could happen to anyone, let alone her. I mean, do we know, was this a crime of opportunity? Or were ava, brando, and diane targeted? We just know that they all have the same person in common. Oh, yeah. Hey, spinelli. I’m glad you’re here. Diane’s been a steadfast friend and able defender. The very least I can do is sit here in the waiting area. So here I am. Yeah, look, I-I’d like to stay, but, uh, something’s come up. Can you, um — can you text me if there’s any update on diane? Yeah, of course. Is — is everything okay? Yeah. Yeah, it’s fine. Just a misunderstanding. I’m just trying to get some facts straight. Okay. Alright, bye. What are you talking about? Can I come in? Sure. Austin, you remember cody from the quartermaine picnic? Yeah, I sure do. You’re the guy who was trying to give pork to my girlfriend.

[ Laughs ] Uh, yeah, we were never formally introduced. I’m, uh, cody bell. You’re dr. Holt, right? Yeah, dr. Gatlin-holt. Gatlin? Yeah. Dr. Gatlin-holt. That’s me. So, cody, why did, uh — why’d you call me sis? Oh, my gosh. Did mac talk to you? Thank goodness. I am so glad this is finally out in the open. W-what’s out in the open? Oh, boy. Wait, you really think that mac scorpio’s my dad? There you go. Thank you. So, you texted me that you wanted to talk. Is this about rory or spencer? What? Cameron, actually. Okay. So, you know how spencer was only pretending to believe that I was guilty so that he could work esme and try to get her to incriminate herself? Yeah, yeah, that kind of convoluted thinking happens to be a cassadine trait. Well, early on, spencer told cameron the truth. How early? Not long after I was arrested. Spencer told cameron but swore him to secrecy. Spencer thought if anyone knew what he was doing, esme might figure it out. But who knows? Ma– maybe he was right. But it just bothered me that cameron kept the secret. Have you told cameron any of this? Yeah, we just talked about it after josslyn left the hatchet range. I told him how I felt. He heard me and apologized. And now we’re good. Good. I’m glad. Me too. And you were so supportive when I was trying to figure out my feelings with cam. I wish I told you about it sooner. No thanks to curtis.

[ Scoffs ] Could you believe the way he jumped on me? You know, I-I think that he’s just trying t-to protect you.

[ Scoffs ] I just got used to living in a new house with him and my mom, and now I’m back at the dorms. But once they get married, curtis will be my stepdad. That sounds pretty good. I mean, it is. I really like curtis. But it’s just… he treats me like I’m 12. Oh, trina, try to be patient with him, though, okay? I don’t think curtis has been a stepdad before, has he? I can take care of myself. And if I can’t, I have my mom and my dad who can help me. And me. Don’t you — don’t you forget about me. And now you’re gonna have curtis, too. Is that so bad? I’m not following curtis around. This conversation started because I’m still very much in curtis’ life. We’re still married. Because you conveniently forgot to file the divorce papers, didn’t you, jordan? It was a mistake.

[ Scoffs ] I’m sorry for any trouble it’s caused curtis. I don’t want to make his life more difficult. W-well, then why are you hinting around to curtis that I’m lying to him? That makes no sense. I asked you if curtis was trina’s father. I haven’t heard a denial. So it’s obvious that you’re hiding something. You know what? I hope, diane, after surgery, is able to identify her attacker. What are you thinking, like male, female? What do you think the pattern is? Motives, and were the attacks random or deliberate? Well, they did happen on the quartermaine grounds, behind charlie’s pub. Yeah, but also in brando’s garage. Now, this attacker seems to be acting out of rage, especially considering the weapon. A slaughtering hook? I don’t know. Um, I tried to speak to trina and tell her to leave town for a couple weeks, stay at her aunt gia’s, but… yeah, I’m guessing that was met with an adamant “no.” Yeah, she absolutely refuses to leave college, especially after last semester and all the time she lost with the trial. Right. You know what? I understand trina not wanting to disrupt the start of her sophomore year, especially after the rough summer she had.

[ Gasps ] Oh, how about I take weekdays, you take weekends. That way we can make sure she’s covered 24/7. Right, right. You know what? I can think of a way to keep trina safer in port charles. So, you heard something. Like — like a voice? No, no, it wasn’t a voice. It was a — it was a sound. Sounded like — like jingling, like metal pieces rattling together. When did you hear this sound? It was right after I left charlie’s and I-I was, uh, crossing the alley. So there’s a dumpster in that alley. It could have been a homeless person kicking around some cans. Nobody else was in the alley. Except for maybe dex. I never saw dex there. I never did. I-I saw him leave charlie’S. He — he headed out the back entrance. And I also saw that he left his sunglasses. So I grabbed them and I went out to follow him and give them back, and he wasn’t there. Or maybe he just wasn’t visible. Do you think that the sounds I heard could have been coming from dex? That he was somewhere in the alley? And when brando followed after me… I didn’t say it, joss, but you just did. Sonny: You were right about one thing. I-I-I could let ray keep beating you up. But, you know, I’m just not gonna get the answers that I need, so… dex, this is carver. We haven’t worked together personally, but, uh, he comes highly recommended by the wu family. H-he’s well-known for getting people to talk by any means necessary.

[ Knock on door ] Mr. Corinthos? What is it, frank?

[ Whispering ] Michael’s here. He wants to talk to you. That’s unfortunate. Alright, listen, I got — I got — I got a matter I got to deal with. So… ray… watch the door. Dex, I’m gonna let you get acquainted… with carver.

So, what’s the plan? Make sure trina sticks around G.H. After she sees ava. Hey, so ava’s resting, and I think I’m gonna go check on diane to see if she’s out of surgery yet. I like it. I’ll go with you. Okay. Thank you. Um, yeah, I-I’m gonna head out. Your mom says that you’re staying at home tonight, not in the dorms? Mm-hmm. I’ll see you then. Alright, let’s go see diane. How did georgie handle the disruption of her evening with her father? Well, I told her that diane was in the hospital, leaving aside some details, of course, and she agreed that I should be here to support diane. So we’ll reschedule our viewing for another time. Oh, viewing? Oh, haven’t I told you? I’m mentoring my progeny on a tour of a certain galaxy far, far away. Oh. Yeah. Yes. So rest assured, georgie will see every original, every sequel, prequel, in-between-quel in the “star wars” universe. Okay. Who’s her favorite character? Oh, well, uh, princess leia organa, uh, closely followed by yoda, with a, uh, certain fondness for darth vader. Wait, does she know? Oh, that he was once anakin? Yes, of course. We’re watching the canon in order. It’s just — I don’t know. She — she’s got a tender heart and a hopeful — hopeful spirit. I think she — she insists that vader can be redeemed. Plus, she likes his helmet. Ah. I bet you she gets that perspective from you. Well, I-I try not to influence her with my likes or dislikes. The joy is in just watching her experience this storytelling universe that brought me so much joy. You’re a really good dad, spinelli. Well, I’m blessed with an amazing daughter. And equally fortunate to have… a co-parent like her amazing mother, so… is maxie okay waiting alone for news on diane? She’s not alone. Dr. Gatlin-holt is keeping her company. Oh, how is it going between georgie and austin? The last maxie told me that georgie was having a problem sharing her mom with austin. Georgie’s still not a fan, despite the efforts of the good doctor. And she’s not being influenced by anyone about austin, is she? I have no need. Georgie’s an excellent judge of character. I’m sure she is. It’s possible she may have picked up on my own… jealousy. …Reservations. I haven’t denied your allegation because I don’t owe you an answer. But you do owe curtis one. The timing works. You and curtis were involved about 20 years ago.

[ Scoffs ] Taggert and I were together for another three years after curtis left me. Taggert has been trina’s dad her whole life. We both know what you said in the basement last year. And I know you’ve been looking into genetic counseling for trina. How could you possibly kn– are you afraid trina may have inherited a predisposition to schizophrenia from curtis’ side of the family?

[ Knock on door ] Whoever it is, come in and distract me. Hey. Can we talk? Yeah, of course. What’s on your mind? Keeping trina safe. Oh, well, I’m all for that. How can I help? You need to fire trina. No, no. You just said that mac was your dad. I was bluffing. No one would give me a straight answer. Have you — have you even talked to mac? No. Okay, well, you should really do that. Well, I want more information before doing that. So what do you know? Oh, come on, cody. This was way before my time. Like that would stop you. Listen, I’ve asked around town. I learned about your reputation. You know everything there is to know in port charles. This is true. Okay, from what I’ve heard, mac and dominique, they fell in love. Wait. Here? In port charles? No, no. Somewhere else. Mac was on the run when he met dominique, and dominique was married to leopold taub, who was apparently the absolute worst. Yeah, I’m aware. Then taub died. Uh, I’m a little fuzzy on that part ’cause he was part of some evil cartel or something like that. Anyway, the good news is, with him out of the way, dominique was able to come back to port charles, where she was reunited with mac. Okay, well, I know they didn’t live happily ever after, but mac never said anything about having a kid? Mac didn’t know dominique had a baby. Yeah. So he says. Mac is not a liar. He’s the best man I know. And you would be lucky to have him as a dad. Michael. What a surprise. Look, ava was attacked, brando’s dead, and diane’s in the hospital. My people are monitoring her condition. Ava, diane, and brando have one thing in common, and that is you. Did you hear what I said? I’m handling it, michael. And what does that mean?

[ Chuckles ] Do you know who the killer is? Josslyn: No way. Dex is not behind these attacks. Well, I don’t know what to tell you. I got to be open to everything until it’s ruled out. What is that? This is the file on brando’s attack. When he woke up in the hospital, before all hell broke loose, he told jordan he remembered hearing a sound — a sound describing what you’re talking about, like a metal clinking. Really? So then I’m onto something. Dex was in the military, and he still wears dog tags.

[ Metal clinks ]

[ Exhales deeply ] Forget something? Probably. Could you be more specific? You left these at charlie’S. I was wondering what happened to them. Thanks for getting them back to me. Well, I-I actually tried to get them back to you yesterday. Um, I followed you out the back exit to the alley, but, you know, I didn’t see you anywhere. Do you think the sound that you and brando both heard could have been his dog tags? Well, it — it could have been tags on a dog’s collar. A dog? Was there a dog in the alley? Well, dex wasn’t there, either. And how do you know that he still wears these tags? Because I’ve seen them. And I think you have, too. Dex: You can skip the theatrics. I know the drill. Carver: Not sure what you mean. Unpacking your bag, taking out the knives. You want me ready to break before you ever start cutting. Which would probably work. If I knew anything worth knowing… I’d tell you. But you don’t want information. I don’t want anything. Mr. Corinthos does. I’m just the facilitator. Mr. Corinthos wants to know who stabbed those people. But I didn’t do it.

Fire trina? No, I can’t do that. S-she’s like a daughter to me, not to mention the fact that she happens to be very good at her job and — and she’s getting college credit for her work at the gallery. I understand, but your attacker hasn’t been caught yet. And you think he might try to finish the job?

[ Sighs ] I don’t know. But while there’s still a chance, I think trina should stay as far away from you as possible. What if your attacker shows up at the gallery and trina happens to be there? You’ve done quite a bit of investigating into my personal life, haven’t you? I hope you didn’t use your position as police commissioner to gain access to my personal medical files. I would never. Then how? How do you know? How do you know about the genetic testing, then? I came across this information by accident. You know, you keep trying to make this about me, but you need to take a good look at your actions. I thought you loved curtis. I do. I love curtis. I do. You can’t marry curtis with this hanging over you. Is that a threat? After losing ellie, my feelings for maximista may have been rebooted. May? Alright.

[ Sighs ] I have feelings for her. And — and it’s not just because we co-parent our incredible daughter or our platonic yet equally incredible friendship. Can you blame me? No, spinelli, of course I don’t blame you. And to be honest, I’m not even surprised. You and maxie have shared so much for a long time. Are you gonna tell her how you feel? I just feel like it’s not the right time. She seems really happy with austin. I’m trying to move on. Okay, well, any luck with society setups? So far, my — my true match has eluded me. Oh, wait, are you saying britt is not your match? Uh…a passing fancy. Okay. And realistically, too tall for me. So I will continue my search. But I… I fear that maxie’s the one. I-I can’t tell you how tempting it is to see if she and I are a match, but I have resisted thus far. Wait, how would you know if you and maxie were a match? She’s not a client of society setups, is she? I… I really couldn’t say. Wait, and zelda wouldn’t be able to match her with you because they don’t know each other. You know what? I’m not even sure about zelda’s matchmaking skills anyway. Society setups has had great success. I mean, if you go to their website, you can see they’ve made hundreds of compatible matches. Okay, spinelli, I know you’re a romantic, but — no, no, no, it’s not romance, it’s science. Wait, what are you talking about? Gah!

[ Gasps ] Spinelli! What haven’t you been telling me?

[ Whimpers ] Alright, alright, alright, alright. The truth. Zelda telesco is — is — is merely a front. She’s not the matchmaker. I am. Why are you here, michael? Three people, all who have ties to you, have been attacked. I’m asking you what you know about it. I got — all my people are doing everything they can to find out who did this. Right, the pcpd brought in dex heller for questioning. Where’d you hear that? He used his one phone call to contact you. You showed up and you got him released. Yeah, he works for me. I take care of my people. Right, and what kind of care is he getting at the moment? Did you pick him up because you think he’s innocent or because you think that he’s guilty and you plan on dealing with him yourself?

I’m not threatening you. We both need to just cool down. Really? Because it sounds to me like you’re saying you’re gonna go to curtis with your suspicions if I don’t speak up. Is that what you’re gonna do, jordan? Always a pleasure. You too. All set. Well, this is for the best. I’m glad we both agree. Yeah, the last thing I want is for anything to happen to trina. What really matters is that trina’s safe.

[ Door closes ] Back up, spinelli. Are you saying that you work for zelda? No, no, no. Zelda works for me. Uh-huh. I hired her. I’m not just a client of society setups. I’m the owner, as well. Okay. I, uh — I still don’t — I don’t get it. How? Okay. I am society setups. Society setups is me. And if anyone finds out, I’ll end up in federal prison. That’s a lot to take in. Yeah. I don’t really know what to believe right now. Again, you should really talk to mac. Right. Okay. Yeah. You know what? I don’t understand your attitude. Mac is the best dad. And leopold was some sort of monster. How could you want to be leopold’s son? Hey. I got your text. What’s wrong? Did you try to walk again? Tire yourself out? No, no, no. No, I’m fine. Well, something’s wrong. I can see that you’re upset. I am. Um… because I can’t be your boss any longer. You made it clear you don’t want me in your life. So don’t come to me when you want a problem solved, michael. I’ll tell you why this concerns me. Because — ’cause ava is avery’s mother, and I care about avery. And brando was extended family. Okay, right. And sasha, who I care about, is now a widow. Mm-hmm. And diane, who’s not only an amazing attorney who’s done miracles for me in court, she’s also a friend, someone I look up to and admire. And now she’s fighting for her life in the hospital. And guess what. You — you are the common denominator. And the police, they’re not — they’re not — not questioning you about — about any rivals or enemies who may be targeting people who were close to you. No, instead, they bring in dex heller, a guy who drives your car. And now, you know, dex seems to have vanished after leaving the pcpd with you. Go home. This doesn’t concern you. Are you sure you have the right guy? What makes you think that dex is guilty? What is dex to you, michael? Why do you care what happens to him? The night dex found you and ava and you were working to slow her bleeding, what was he wearing? The usual — jeans, white t-shirt. Okay, c-could he have had his — his dog tags on under the shirt? Well, we were trying to save ava. I mean, how am I supposed to remember something like that? Wait, so… wearing a white t-shirt. Was it clean? Yeah. Why? Mr. Corinthos has informed me that you’ve been evading his questions. I haven’t evaded anything. I’ve been telling the truth. And when he figures that out, you’ll be out of a job.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Thomas: You’re from child protective services?

Cps agent: Yes, we are. Does the child douglas forrester reside at this address?

Thomas: Yeah, it’s my son.

Cps agent 2: Is he here? We need to check on his well-being.

Ridge: Why? He’s fine.

Cps agent: That’s what we’re here to determine.

Thomas: Did someone file a complaint?

[ Music fades ]

Brooke: It’s better to talk here. I’m not comfortable discussing this at the office.

Liam: Yeah, I mean, it’s not exactly a secret that you’re unhappy about douglas staying with thomas.

Hope: I have been very careful not to escalate things.

Liam: Yeah, okay, but here’s the thing. If your mom is right, and is seeing this… change in thomas for the worst, then maybe it’s time to escalate.

Brooke: Well, that’s exactly what I’m saying.

Hope: Okay, all right. All right. Fine, I’m listening.

Brooke: Don’t you have to go pick up beth?

Liam: No, she’s, uh– she’s gonna be at her friend’s house for a bit.

Brooke: I’m sure she misses douglas as much as we do. I just hate to think of douglas, trapped over there with thomas.

Paris: I really appreciate you taking the time to look over this proposal, steffy.

Steffy: Your grant package?

Paris: Investor outreach.

Steffy: Right.

Zende: If you guys need to talk, I can leave the sketch, or we can discuss it later.

Steffy: I’ll text you two later, see how everything’s going. That’ll be best, I think. Hey, babe.

Zende: Hi, finn.

Finn: Oh, pam said I could come right in.

Steffy: Yeah. Of course, yeah, anytime.

Finn: Sorry, am I breaking up a tense meeting.

Steffy: N-n-no I was just about to tell them what a great job you two are doing. It’s just, um, I’M…

Finn: Yeah, well, something’s going on.

Finn: Tell me, what’s up?

Steffy: Argh.

Finn: You and brooke got into it?

Steffy: She’s on a rampage.

Finn: About your mom or your brother?

Steffy: You know what? I really don’t want to get into it right now, especially in front of paris and zende, all this family drama.

Zende: Well, I am family. And paris and I already know all about the drama.

Paris: Yeah, and nobody wants to take sides, but we work with thomas, and we see how happy he is having douglas stay with him.

Steffy: Yeah, everyone’s happy about it… except brooke. She’s attacking thomas’s role as a father, questioning his ability to take care of his own son.

Brooke: Douglas has been with thomas long enough, it is fortunate nothing has happened to him yet.

Hope: Mom, if I thought that douglas was in any danger, I would step in immediately.

Brooke: Honey, you didn’t see that knife.

Liam: Yeah, but you did say that thomas didn’t let douglas play with it or anything, right?

Brooke: No. But he was watching his father using it. And, you know, he wants to emulate his dad. And now with the forrester’s pushing this forrester family legacy on him, it’s just…

[ Loud sigh ] What was thomas thinking? What kind of environment is that for a sweet, impressionable child, like douglas?

Thomas: My son is perfectly safe and happy here.

Cps agent: Then you won’t mind letting us speak to him.

Ridge: You have a warrant or something?

Cps agent 2: No, sir. We merely want to see your grandson for a few moments, ascertain his well-being and hopefully be on our way.

Cps agent: Unless, you have something to hide.

Ridge: No one has anything to hide.

Thomas: No, no. You can see him right now. He’s right here, in the living room.

Ridge: Come on.

Douglas: Hey, dad.

Thomas: Hey.

Douglas: Did you know that grandpa hasn’t won a single game in the last 20 games?

Thomas: That’s ’cause, grandpa, uh, stinks. But, uh, if you could put that down just for a minute, ’cause these, uh, these people just need to talk to you.

Douglas: Oh, okay.

Cps agent: Hi, douglas. I’m elizabeth. This is michaia. We just stopped by to see how you’re doing. A lot of people care about you and want to make sure you’re all right. Hi, my name is reggie and I

Zende: Do you think we should take this in–

Steffy: You know what? My brother has earned this time with douglas, and it makes me furious that anyone wants to take that from him.

Finn: Hope misses him, that’s understandable.

Steffy: No, brooke is painting my brother out to be this bad guy, which is not true. I mean, anyone could see it if they– they just spent a few seconds with douglas and thomas, they would see how much douglas loves and trusts his father.

Zende: Hopefully, brooke will see that, too. All this drama between the logans and the forresters, it has to end.

Steffy: Yeah.

Charlie: Oh, zende, there you are. Uh, they need you down in the cutting room.

Paris: Oh, and I have a call right now, too.

Steffy: Huh, yeah.

Charlie: Oh, oh, oh, boss, boss, listen. Um, your dad was talking about brooke earlier. Ha-have-have you seen her?

Steffy: No, I haven’t, and I really don’t want to.

Charlie: Okey dokey. Uh, okay. Until I get the all clear, I guess we should make this a brooke free zone, huh?

[ Chuckles ]

Finn: Oh, until you get the all clear this office should be off limits to everybody.

Charlie: Why would that be? Oh, oh, oh you– ok– I–

[ Chuckles ] Sorry!

Finn: Okay. Are you all right?

Steffy: No. I’m just worried about thomas. This whole situation with brooke is just getting impossible.

Brooke: The knife was scary enough, but thomas’s attitude worries me even more. I mean, the way he was just brushing me off.

Hope: Okay, look. I am concerned about the knife. I didn’t think that thomas would be so cavalier about his son’s safety. And you’re right. He may not realize, just, how tempting it is for a little boy to want to be like his dad.

Brooke: He’s not equipped to be a full-time parent.

Liam: Whoa, okay, all right. I know that we don’t want this to get ugly, we want it to be civil. But, you know, “a” we have to remember the guy’s past, and, “b”, if he’s now just straight up ignoring advice and basically telling douglas’s grandmother to go mind her own business, that’s– that’s not a good sign. You agree, right?

Brooke: Ugh, and I think we’re the only people who notice that. Poor douglas, he wants to be just like his dad, and then ridge, and taylor, and eric, they want to boost thomas up. I don’t think they would see the warning signs if it was glaring them in the face. This is too important. I mean, somebody has to look out for douglas.

Elizabeth: Well, I see you play chess. You any good?

Douglas: I guess.

Ridge: He’s really good. He lives here with thomas and my dad. They’re teaching him.

Douglas: Yeah, he’s a designer.

Michaia: You like living here with your dad and great-grandfather?

Douglas: Yeah, once great granddad let me play in the living room.

Michaia: What about schoolwork? Does he help you with that too?

Douglas: No, dad helps me with homework. Only if I need it.

Elizabeth: You and your dad spend a lot of time together?

Douglas: Yeah.

Elizabeth: We just want to make sure you feel safe here.

Douglas: Safe?

Elizabeth: You’re not scared? Worried about anything?

Douglas: No! Why would I? I love being here with my dad. There’s a pool, tennis courts, and a really big screening room.

Michaia: Sounds like a blast. Thanks for talking with us, douglas. We’d like to speak with your dad now.

Thomas: Yeah, bud. Why don’t you grab your colors and sketchbook, and head upstairs and I’ll meet you up there?

Douglas: Okay. Bye.

Elizabeth: Nice meeting you, douglas.

Ridge: Was it necessary? You saw how confused he was.

Elizabeth: We have to investigate every call we receive.

Thomas: Okay, well, now you saw that he is perfectly safe and happy here.

Michaia: We had reason to believe that your son might be in jeopardy. We were told there was an incident with a knife.

Steffy: I know you didn’t stop by to hear me go on and on and on about brooke.

Finn: No, I stopped by to see how you… are.

Steffy: Better when you’re here.

Finn: Yeah, but you’re still frustrated.

Steffy: Of course, I’m frustrated. Brook’s coming after my family. It’s like, every time things are going in the right direction for us, she interferes. She interferes with my parents, with thomas, trying to get him away from his son, making him sound like he’s a dangerous person. It’s ridiculous.

Finn: And it’s upsetting. But thomas is douglas’s father, brooke can complain about them living together all she wants, but she can’t actually do anything.

Steffy: This is brooke logan we’re talking about. Everybody knows she’ll do whatever it takes to get what she wants.

Brooke: I hate feeling this way about thomas. He’s ridge’s son.

Liam: I mean, I know you want to trust him, but if– if he’s making bad choices, you’re the only one who can call him out on.

Hope: Mom, if you think that this is serious and it needs to be addressed, then I will talk to him.

Brooke: Yes, honey, it’s very serious, but I don’t want you caught in the middle.

Hope: Douglas is my son, and I need to know he’s safe.

Brooke: Well, I wish we didn’t have to worry about that. But thomas has done a lot of crazy things in his past. His judgment hasn’t always been sound.

Liam: Yeah, far from it.

Brooke: I can’t forget all the things that he’s done to you, hope. And the mannequin… and what about what he’s done to his own son? How he used douglas to get closer to you?

Hope: And it was inexcusable. But didn’t we want him to get better? Wasn’t that the point, to get him on the right track? I mean, mom, I think we need to be honest with ourselves here, he hasn’t shown any of those tendencies in a very long time. So, I do think we at least need to hear him out.

Liam: Well, we wouldn’t know. We-we haven’t even gotten to see him, with douglas. I mean, you get these invitations to the house, you’re going over there, so you’ve seen them. And, I mean, you say everything seems okay.

Brooke: But, yeah, they seem okay. But, honey, this is where douglas lives. Here with you. This is where we know he will be safe and secure.

Thomas: There was no incident with a knife.

Michaia: You deny having a large knife around the minor?

Thomas: I mean, like, I’ve like, a little pocketknife, but there was no accident.

Michaia: May we see the knife?

Ridge: What? Why?

Thomas: You know what, fine, I’ll get the knife and you guys can look at it.

Ridge: What do you–? What is happening here? Did somebody call you and say that the little kid was in danger. Is that what happened? What, that’s a secret? I’ll tell you what’s not a secret. My son is a good father, so there’s nothing to worry about here.

Thomas: Here you go. Here is the knife. You know what, you guys, you guys keep that thing because it disgusts me that there’s an idea that he could get hurt with anything that I have, I mean, it’S… look, my son is the most important thing in the world to me. It’s my job to make sure he’s safe, it’s my job to make sure he is secure. He-he’s living in this wonderful home, you can see how happy he is. Okay, he is surrounded by a family that loves him. Me most of all.

Michaia: We’re glad to hear that. We understand a visit like this can be upsetting, but a child safety must come first.

Thomas: Hey,I totally agree.

Elizabeth: Thank you, for your cooperation.

Ridge: Yeah.

[ Door closes ]

Thomas: What the hell was that?

Ridge: We got to make sure that none of this ends up on your permanent record. So, what is this? Now people think that douglas is in danger? Who called these people over here? Whoever it was, whoever made this– this phone call, they made a big mistake.

Finn: Hey, look, your brother, he’s holding his own.

Steffy: Yeah, he is. But once brooke sets her mind on something, she doesn’t let up, no matter who it hurts. Think of all the times she split my parents up, she wants my dad, she wants deacon, and she wants bill, she wants and wants and wants. It’s selfish and it’s toxic. But she doesn’t stop.

Finn: Well, it’s a good thing thomas has you looking out for him.

Steffy: Yeah. Thomas, douglas, my parents, everyone…

Finn: It’s a lot. I get it, feeling like your family is under attack, especially for someone as fiercely protective as you are. You said brooke never gives up? Guess what? Neither do you. All right? It’s one of the many things I love about you.

Steffy: “Many?”

Finn: Many. Come here.

Hope: Mom, I understand that you’re concerned about douglas.

Brooke: Honey, we don’t even know what’s going on over there at eric’S.

Hope: It’s where douglas wants to be. He asked to spend more time with his father.

Liam: Yeah, but he’s not old enough to make that decision. I think he’s mature enough to know if there is something wrong. And we know that for a fact, because in the past, he has told that to us.

Liam: Yeah.

Brooke: Okay, well, that’s a lot of responsibility to put on a little boy.

Hope: I am responsible, I am his mother, I have been keeping an eye out. I have been going over there and seen how he is with thomas. I have informed all of his teachers. I’ve been going to the house every day. He has been having a good time.

Liam: Okay. But just because he’s having a good time doesn’t mean he’s safe when you’re not there.

Brooke: That’s right. I mean, as a parent, you have to be diligent. The child expects you to be there, and love them, and support them, and put their needs first above everything else. And yes, maybe, thomas wants to do that for his son, but he can’t, because he’s not ready yet. And his behavior with that knife, that proves it. He has to be diligent. He has to be extremely careful with a child in his care. I have grave concerns about douglas living with thomas.

>Ridge: I can’t believe this. Can’t believe any of it. You know, really, I should call carter, get legal involved, make sure that none of this lands on you.

Thomas: Nah, you know, I don’t– I don’t think that they were convinced like anything was wrong.

Ridge: Why were they here? Why would they come to our house? What they– did they– they think that-that you’re– putting douglas in danger? You’re a great father.

Thomas: You know what?

Ridge: And wait, now they’re going to question that little boy, they’re going to question you?

Thomas: I would never give douglas a knife and let him play around with it, and possibly hurt–

Ridge: I know that. I think, everybody in their right mind would know that. There’s somebody out there’s– thinks differently.

Brooke: I mean, I will protect douglas no matter what, I would call child protective services on thomas, if I–

Ridge: Woah, woah, woah, you– no, no, no, no, no, no…

Thomas: What is it? Who are you calling? You think there’s a problem?

Ridge: I hope not.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Brooke: Ridge, hi.

Ridge: Hey. Where are you right now?

Brooke: I’m at home. Why?

Ridge: Just trying to find a way to tell you what just happened.

Brooke: What happened? You sound upset.

Ridge: I am upset. At my dad’s house, I was hanging out with douglas, and two officers from the cps showed up.

Brooke: Cps?

Ridge: Yeah. They were investigating thomas and douglas, and they questioned my grandson.

Brooke: Oh hun, oh what happened? Is douglas okay?

Ridge: Everyone’s okay, because douglas lives in a loving, beautiful house where he’s very safe. And the officers saw that right away, and they left. Here’s what bothers me… douglas and thomas had to go through this, in our house.

Brooke: Okay, well, you’re obviously angry.

Ridge: I got to ask you something. I don’t want to, but I have to ask you this, because this whole time you’ve been saying that you don’t think thomas is a good father to douglas. That you don’t feel safe having douglas in his care. Did you do this? Did you call child services on my son?

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness. Look at you, showing up to work with a big basket for your bosses. It may look like you’re trying to get special treatment.

Jack: Wow. Beautiful basket. Are you giving or receiving?

Phyllis: Everybody knows that diane is a taker, not a giver.

Diane: I’m giving. Since we’ve decided to turn over a new leaf, I thought i would extend an olive branch in the form of pastries.

Phyllis: Sugary sweet.

Diane: [ Laughs ] I realize it’s not the most subtle peace offering. I didn’t realize how big it was when I ordered it. But, um, phyllis, you probably shouldn’t eat all of that by yourself. But you can look at the size as a symbol of my determination to win back your trust and forgiveness.

Phyllis: Your timing is impeccable, isn’t it? You just showed up with this huge, unmissable basket right as jack was coming out of his office. Yeah, that’s not subtle at all.

[ Chuckles ]

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Allie: What?

Noah: Nothing.

Allie: Am I drooling or something?

Noah: No, you’re just beautiful first thing in the morning.

Allie: [ Sighs ] I can’T. I, um — I have to get to the lab.

Noah: Come on. You could be a little late, right?

Allie: No, I can’T. I have to be on time today since I took yesterday afternoon off to help plan for summer and kyle’s party. Why didn’t you tell me what time it was, huh?

Noah: Guess I wasn’t in a rush to let you go.

Billy: Hey. I’m sorry. It, uh, took longer at the park than I intended.

Lily: Hey. No, it’s fine. Are you okay?

Billy: Just harder than I — than I expected. Um…what did I miss?

Lily: Um…uh, well, we, um — we met with audra. And she was amazing. We all agreed that jill made the right choice, having her guide us through the ipo process.

Billy: Good.

Lily: So, she, um, sent over preliminary numbers, which was very fast, I think because we had the books together for the merger. I think that helped streamline the process.

Billy: Okay, great. That all sounds — that all sounds good.

Lily: Yeah, and devon said that he was worried that, you know, maybe your heart’s not in it.

Billy: Well, I hope you told him that that wasn’t true.

Lily: I did. I did. I didn’t say anything about johnny. I didn’t think it was my place. And, honestly, by the look on your face, I’m really concerned with how things went. Tell me what happened.

Nate: Is now a good time?

Victoria: Yes. Of course. I’m sorry. Come in. Have a seat. Give me the update.

[ Door closes ]

Nate: Our strategy’s working. I’m on the inside, playing the secondary role my family thinks I should have played all along. As a result, everything’s going smoothly.

Victoria: You’re sure nobody suspects anything?

Nate: Positive. All it took was a complete absence of an opinion on my part. (Kid) why aren’t there any buildings out there?

Nate: As I mentioned on the phone, the decision’s official. Chancellor-winters is moving ahead with the public offering. And we met with an ipo advisor that jill sent in. Her name is audra charles.

Victoria: That name doesn’t ring a bell.

Nate: Everyone thought she was impressive. And she thinks chancellor-winters is in a perfect place to pull off an offering.

Victoria: You know, it’s risky bringing in an outsider. You’re putting a lot in her hands.

Nate: Well, she did her homework on the company and its principals. She hit the ground running, and her presentation hit all the major points. I was thoroughly impressed.

Victoria: Well, I would just say, keep your eyes open. You’re trusting this woman not only with chancellor-winters’ future, but yours and now mine.

Nate: Don’t worry. I’m not going to let our plans be derailed by her or anyone else.

Victoria: Are you sure that this is what you really want to do, that this is the right move for you?

Nate: Why do you ask that? You think I’m not up to running chancellor-winters?

Allie: Last night was fantastic.

Noah: Yeah, it was.

Allie: Okay, I’m not just talking about that.

[ Both laugh ] I’m also talking about the party.

Noah: Yeah. Yeah. It started a little rough, but I’m glad we can bring all of our friends and family together to celebrate.

Allie: At your club.

Noah: I know. You know, I’m really glad we didn’t have to put the event description on the invites.

Allie: [ Laughs ]

Noah: That would have been a tough one. You know, glam club’s soft launch/non-bachelor/bachelorette summer/kyle pre-vow renewal party, something.

Allie: Yeah. Yeah. That’s a little bit of a word salad.

[ Both laugh ] But I think the evening ended up flowing really organically, and kyle and summer seemed to love it. Also, baby, what a meaningful way it was for you to debut your club. I am so blown away by your vision, by your ambition, and by the ways that you showed your family how much they mean to you.

Noah: Yeah, I’m really happy you were there. You, uh… you mean a lot to me.

Allie: Okay. Okay. You — you are not playing fair. I have to go.

Noah: Okay, but coffee on your break. I don’t want to wait all day to see you again.

Allie: I have to get to jabot.

Noah: [ Breathes deeply ]

Diane: There’s nothing subtle about this situation. We both almost lost our jobs, jobs that we cannot and should not take for granted. We’ve been given an incredible opportunity not only to excel professionally, but to do so surrounded by the people that we love the most.

Phyllis: Okay. I almost lost my job because of your emotional outburst, alright? Let’s not get it twisted. And you walked in here on edge, and I was the recipient of your fury. By the way, what was that about? You had just seen victor. Did he tell you that nicki’s in L.A.? Oh, are you — are you worried that she’s going to uncover some secret about you?

Jack: Wait, what are you talking about? Is this something I should know about?

Phyllis: No, no, no! I mean, I’m just making friendly conversation. I mean, that’s what this basket’s about, right? Being friends. And I think that last night — I think that we came closer to achieving that goal.

Diane: Oh, oh, absolutely.

Phyllis: Absolutely, abso– hey, why did you leave so early? I was looking for you, and I saw you slip out. You acted like you didn’t want anyone to notice.

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Billy: Johnny was rattled. He was angry, and he was hurt. I mean, he didn’t ask to know who his biological mom was, and now he’s thinking everyone around him knew this whole time and he didn’T. And I don’t blame him. I would be upset, as well.

Lily: Yeah. I mean, look, that was always going to be a consequence of telling him no matter when you did it. And I get why you chose to do it now, although I do kind of feel like it had to do more with the adults in his life than what he was going through. So I’m sure it was scary for him trying to process all that information out of the blue.

Billy: He’s my little kid. He’s just my boy. And he’s been through so much. And now I feel like I — I don’t know — I didn’t — maybe i didn’t make the right decision. Maybe I was too easily convinced by chelsea that this was the right thing to do. You know, when I told her that victoria and I were about to talk to johnny, she immediately jumped to inserting herself into his life, like this was step one in the bigger plan for the two of them.

Lily: What do you mean, exactly?

Billy: I think maybe she’s trying to figure out a way to be his mom. I get bladder leaks.

Lily: You think chelsea is trying to be johnny’s mom?

Billy: She didn’t say that outright. But I don’t know. There’s something about the way that she reacted when I told her that victoria and I had had the conversation with johnny. She immediately jumped into inserting herself into his life. She wanted to see him. She wanted to be there for him, support him in this situation. And I just think it’s completely inappropriate. She’s not his parent.

Lily: Yeah, no, I’m with you. I agree.

Billy: You know, victoria warned that this could happen — you know, chelsea could keep pushing. And I — I should have listened to her. But to be honest, there was a part of me that felt for chelsea, you know? She’s been in a bad place, and she’s right — johnny was going to find out about his biological mother at a certain point. And her arrangement made sense. But right now, I did not account for the amount of pain that it was gonna cause right in this moment, especially if chelsea keeps pushing.

Lily: Well, I mean, look, you could be jumping ahead, you know? I mean, this just happened a few hours ago. She could think about it and, you know, back off.

Billy: There’s a benefit to knowing who your biological parent is, but right now the only thing I can think about is the amount of pain that my son is in. And all I want to do is stop it.

Lily: Trust me. I know how hard this is. You know, I remember when i found out that malcolm was my biological father, and I felt the same. I was really hurt, and I was really angry. But at the end of the day, i always felt like neil was my dad. That never went away. And I know that, you know, I was a bit older than johnny was when he found out, but I think no matter what age you are, it’s a really confusing time.

Billy: My priority is protecting johnny at all costs.

Summer: I don’t know how we slept in that late.

Kyle: I guess the surprise party really wore us out.

Summer: And it has been one surprise after another for me lately. A few days ago, I didn’t even know that there was going to be a vow renewal ceremony, much less a bachelor/bachelorette party.

Kyle: Hey. Non-bachelor/bachelorette. You forgot you’re already married.

Kyle: And you better not ever forget it.

Kyle: Mm. You’re the best thing that ever happened to me.

Summer: Husband and wife forever.

Kyle: Remind to thank noah for last night.

Noah: You are quite welcome, sir.

Kyle: Hey. Your club did not disappoint.

Summer: It is going to be a huge success.

Noah: Okay, well, you might be a little biased.

Summer: I might be, but i also have a knack for predicting these things.

Allie: And I keep telling him the same thing.

Noah: Again, biased. But I will give myself some credit for trying out my club on something equally successful — your marriage.

Summer: We are so excited to renew our vows.

Kyle: Mmm.

Victoria: I am not backing out of our deal. I value your instincts and your ideas, and I think that chancellor-winters will flourish& under your leadership. However, this is a tricky endeavor that we’re venturing into, and if we do not do it right, there could be possible legal ramifications for both of us.

Nate: I can handle things on my end. I’ve taken all the necessary steps to be prepared to sell my shares to newman. And I’m sure you’ve taken all the steps, as well. Which makes me think that’s not what’s really on your mind. What is it that has you second-guessing now?

Victoria: I want to be certain that you’re willing to go the distance. You know, you’re risking the wrath of your family when they find out that you’ve betrayed them.

Nate: Betrayed them? What I’m doing is going to lead chancellor-winters to the next level of success. My family has continually told me that I need to prove myself. So I’m going to do just that. I’m setting the stage for them to witness my leadership and vision, as well as participate in the direction of the company moving forward. I am going to introduce a new way of doing things that will include and value us all. How can that possibly be betrayal?

Jack: I was actually wondering where you went last night, as well.

Diane: Phyllis has to turn every little thing into some big mystery. I did not sneak out. I was tired. It was a young person’s party. I’d had a long day. So I went home and I went to bed.

Phyllis: Oh, the old and tired defense.

[ Cellphone pings ]

Diane: [ Sighs ] You know, i am — I am trying so hard to bury the hatchet with you. So, let me just ask. What can I do to finally change your mind about me?

Phyllis: Um…okay. Uh…what? Oh. What can you do? Let me see. Well, the basket’s not gonna cut it. Um…what can you do? There’s absolutely nothing you can do to change my mind about you. -Fixed. -That’s my son.

Jack: Come on, phyllis. Give a little. You two cannot stay on this roller coaster of mutual destruction.

Phyllis: You didn’t let me finish. I have more to say!

Jack: Okay.

Phyllis: I have to finish. First of all, the basket’s tacky, okay? Um, but our constant fighting almost cost me my job here, a job that I love. And if I’m to be very honest, I, too, am so tired of this. I am so tired. But not because of the party last night. That was fun. I’m just tired of our constant battling.

Diane: I find that hard to believe because it seems like you enjoy it.

Phyllis: Oh, really?

Diane: Mm.

Phyllis: Well, maybe I come off aggressive sometimes.

Diane: Oh! And self-aware! Once a decade. Look at that.

Phyllis: Well, this feuding, if that’s what you’d rather call it — all of this feuding is just exhausting me. And it’s a burden I can’t carry anymore. And I figure if kyle and jack can move on from your manipulation and your lies and your betrayal, then I can maybe do it, too. I mean, they are flesh and blood.

Jack: Keep going. You’re doing great.

Phyllis: And I’m willing to do something. Listen, you’re never, ever, ever gonna convince me you’ve changed. You know why? Because I have to convince myself. I have to do that for me. And I am willing to meet you halfway, so…

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Phyllis: Let’s figure out a way to make this work, diane. Okay?

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Allie: I only have a few minutes before I have to get back to work.

Noah: And that is why i ordered ahead.

Allie: It’s perfect.

Noah: Yeah, well, you take your coffee black, so it’s pretty easy to remember.

Allie: Still. Points.

Noah: I didn’t think I could be this happy with anyone.

Allie: Same.

Noah: In the past, for me at least, there’s always been ups and downs and constant questioning how the other person feels, having to fight for love, appreciation.

Allie: Wait. Are you trying to say that we’re too easy?

Diane: I appreciate you making the effort.

Phyllis: Well, I appreciate your gesture. Hey, why don’t you take this home?

Kyle: Everything okay here?

Jack: Yeah, actually, it is. Yes.

Summer: Mom, can I talk to you for a moment?

Phyllis: Sure.

Summer: Jack, do you mind if we use your office?

Jack: Absolutely. Please.

Phyllis: Hey, I was doing my best to be civil out there. I was doing my best. Come on. I mean, if you don’t approve of what I was doing, then you’re gonna have to trade me in for another mom.

Summer: Thank you. I could tell that you were really trying, and that means so much to me.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Yesterday was a wake-up call. It was crazy. I can’t keep on feeling this way.

[ Voice breaking ] I can’t keep on doing it, summer, especially when you and jack and kyle have all moved on. I mean, you’ve forgiven diane. I don’t trust her, and I can’t be convinced that she’s changed. But I can’t harbor all of this hatred. You know what I mean? So, honestly, hey, if I’m wrong, then great for our family. But if I am right — and I know this from personal experience — secrets have a way of coming out. And I won’t have to do one damn thing to make that happen.

Audra: Victoria newman?

Victoria: Yes. Have we met?

Audra: Not in person, but I’m a huge fan. Audra charles.

Victoria: Nice to meet you.

Audra: I’m sorry if I’m being a little forward, but if you follow the business news and/or things happening in genoa city, then you know all about you. I happen to be tracking both because I’m in town doing some consulting for chancellor-winters.

Victoria: Welcome.

Audra: You know, I’ve been reading about newman enterprises’ latest acquisitions, and in my humble opinion, the company seems to be heading in a bigger and better direction with you at the helm.

Billy: This all looks good. I will send it out immediately.

Chelsea: Hey. Uh, sorry for interrupting. Do you have a minute?

Billy: I, um —

Lily: I’ll, um — I’ll give you two some privacy.

Lily: No. It’s okay. Stay. I just wanted to thank billy again for everything. I, um — I really appreciate you being in my corner and going to bat for me with victoria.

Billy: Look, chelsea, your reasoning for telling johnny — it made a lot of sense, right? I mean, he deserves to know the truth. He’s going to find out about his biological mother at a certain point. But right now, I have to tell you, I am definitely second-guessing my decision to tell him.

Chelsea: Billy, it’s a great thing he heard the news from you and victoria as opposed to someone else. And I’m really hoping going forward we can just go in a positive direction. I want you to know I’ve thought long and hard about what you said, that johnny is not ready to have me participate in his life. I heard you, and I’m not gonna try to force anything. But I was hoping you would give him something for me. I bought this when I was pregnant with johnny. And even after I gave him up, I kept it. I’m not even sure why. Maybe — maybe it was for a moment like this.

Billy: I think it’s a little too soon for that, chelsea.

Chelsea: Well, you know, i let connor play with it when he was a baby, but it never really felt right because it was always johnny’s blanket. And I’m hoping I can help him ease into a place of acceptance. And I feel like a gift like this could show him that I never stopped thinking about him. Billy, I do not intend to be a threat to you or victoria or johnny. I just want to be another person in his life that cares about him. And I want him to know that. Want your clothes to smell freshly

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Lily: May I see the blanket?

Chelsea: Oh, yeah.

Lily: Thanks.

Billy: Look, I can appreciate this, and I know that your heart is in the right place. I just find it inappropriate. This will always be johnny’s decision, and he will make this decision on his own time. And if we keep pushing him, well, he could shut down from all of us, and that would not be good. We are adults. We have had years to process the choices that we have made. My son is now dealing with this for the last few hours, and it is something that he didn’t ask to be a part of.

Chelsea: I’m — I’m sorry you see it that way.

Billy: Look, chelsea, I don’t want to be harsh. I really don’T. But you’re overstepping. So, no more gifts, no more anything unrequested. Again, this will be johnny’s decision, and I will support him no matter what. If he decides to reach out to you as his biological mother or as connor as his brother, again, that will be his choice. But until he decides to do that, you need to back off.

Lily: Look, chelsea, this is difficult for everyone, but honestly, it’s even harder for johnny. He has no idea how to even fathom the adult decision making that’s going on around him. But I know that in time, you’ll find your way through this.

Victoria: I happen to be friendly with devon and lily over at chancellor-winters. What kind of consulting are you doing for them?

Audra: Due to confidentiality, I can’t disclose the nature of my work.

Victoria: Oh, right, of course. I’m — I’m sorry.

Audra: I mean, I can say that this assignment should keep me in town for a while, so I would love to get together some time, perhaps over lunch. I have every intention of getting to know all the players in town.

Jack: Looks like we all had the same idea for lunch.

Kyle: Ah! We should have texted you. Could have saved you the trip.

Diane: But I never mind a few extra minutes with my favorite guys.

Kyle: I was just telling mom how much summer and I appreciate her efforts to mend fences with phyllis.

Jack: And phyllis does get some credit for meeting you, well, almost halfway.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: Hey, it turns out people actually can change.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Kyle: Uh, excuse me for a moment.

Diane: Jack, I want to thank you for always being able to see things with an objective viewpoint. Maybe things are different with phyllis this time. Maybe all we needed was some perspective. Between kyle’s amazing party and the threat of being fired, maybe things just came into focus.

Kyle: I forgot about a meeting summer and I scheduled. I have to get back.

Diane: Oh, no problem. I’ll bring your food to the office.

Kyle: Thanks. See you later.

Jack: Listen, I’m kind of curious about something. I didn’t bring it up with kyle here. Um, phyllis mentioned something about nikki discovering things in L.A. Is there something you haven’t told us? Who says you have to spend more on skincare

Diane: You know the newmans are not my biggest fans. Victor mentioned that nikki was in L.A., And then he implied that there could be some bad news coming my way. But I honestly can’t imagine what her trip has to do with me.

Jack: One of victor’s favorite pastimes is unsettling people with vaguely ominous threats. I’ve been on the receiving end of a few of those, as well as some that are not so vague.

Diane: [ Chuckles ]

Jack: Look, kyle said that nikki is in L.A. To buy a custom dress for summer from the forresters.

Diane: Oh. Well, then that makes perfect sense. I mean, I have said over and over again that there is nothing anyone can discover about my time in L.A. That could undercut or contradict anything I’ve said since I came back to town. Anyway, I am just going to enjoy what happened with phyllis today and hope that we have put the war behind us.

Jack: I hope so, too. It has exhausted me almost as much as it has exhausted you.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Noah: Yeah. Yeah, we’re too easy.

Allie: You’re doubling down?

Noah: Easy in the best ways.

Allie: No. Nope. Try again.

Noah: Look, I just mean that we don’t have to try. We’re comfortable with each other. It’s special.

Allie: Okay, that’s a little better.

Noah: I can just be myself around you. I’m not constantly worried about when the other shoe is gonna drop. I hope you feel the same way.

Allie: I do.

Noah: I want more days and nights like we had yesterday at the club.

Allie: Well, maybe you could throw an after party for kyle and summer’s ceremony.

Noah: Yeah, that’s a good idea. You know, this would be the second wedding that you and i have gone together.

Allie: Yeah, but we weren’t together then.

Noah: Yeah, but I knew it would happened eventually.

Allie: Oh, really? That’s a little overconfident, considering that we had, uh, just met that day.

Noah: Okay, well, I was hoping it would happen. And all this time, who knew I was waiting for you?

Allie: [ Sighs ] I don’t want to go, but I have to get back to work.

Noah: [ Sighs heavily ]

Allie: I promise I’ll see you later.

Noah: Okay.

Chelsea: Hey.

Victoria: Now is not a great time.

Chelsea: Victoria, I wanted to thank you for speaking with johnny earlier. Billy told me it didn’t go as smoothly as you’d hoped.

Victoria: It went exactly the way that I worried it would.

Chelsea: I’m sorry. I know this is hard on you and billy — and especially johnny.

Victoria: Yes, it is.

Chelsea: I still believe once the shock wears off, there is a future where johnny will want me in his life. If we all work together, maybe we can slowly nudge him in that direction.

Nate: Hey.

Elena: Hi.

Nate: How was your day?

Elena: Still working. Just reviewing charts, but I can finish them upstairs.

Nate: Hey, hold on. Hold on. It’s pretty clear you’re trying to avoid me.

Elena: I mean, after the last few days, I think that’s the best course of action.

Nate: Because you won’t talk to me unless I fall in line with your advice.

Elena: Nate, if I say something, it turns into a fight. If I don’t say anything, it turns into a fight. So I can’t have an opinion, and I can’t stay quiet. So, what do you want me to do?

Nate: [ Sighs ]

Nate: All I’ve ever asked you to do was to try to understand where I’m coming from and why i feel like I have to do this.

Elena: But you don’t have to do anything. You are making a very specific choice when there are plenty of other options. You could just leave the company. Or you could slow down and actually learn the ropes. But instead, you are choosing to hurt the people who are supposed to mean the most to you.

Nate: The people who are supposed to me the most to me have no problem overlooking me or belittling me.

Elena: [ Sighs ]

Nate: There’s no reason for me to play small ball when i have big ideas, strong leadership skills, the ability to execute.

Elena: I am sorry, but how exactly do you know that you have those skills? And what exactly have you successfully executed?

Nate: Nothing. But that’s because devon refuses to let me do anything.

Elena: It’s his business. He gets to make that call. Yes, you have ideas, but you need to let your boss warm up to them. Give him time to adjust to the new dynamic. But instead you’re mad at devon. So you want to hurt everyone else who’s directly or indirectly involved.

Nate: Who exactly is being hurt?

Elena: Lily will be hurt. Jill. Billy. And right now, you are hurting me because this is — this is more than just business. This is about morality. It’s about family, relationships, and love. You know, the things that still stand when everything else falls apart. I don’t know who you are anymore, nate, but you are not the man that I fell in love with, the one who used to help people. And I don’t know if I can be around this version of you anymore.

Nate: What are you saying?

Elena: [ Sighs ] I guess I’m saying… I think we need some time apart.

Nate: [ Exhales sharply ]

Lily: I’m really sorry you’re going through this.

Billy: I’m sorry. I know you got a lot on your plate right now, and there’s a lot to prepare for with the ipo. And I will be — I’ll be 100% in a bit.

Lily: No, you don’t have to. I’m not asking you to.

Billy: It was just a rough day.

Lily: I know, and you’re handling it really well. You’re just trying to figure out what’s best for your son.

Billy: I wish I knew that this was not the right time to tell him about chelsea.

Lily: Well, you know what? It’s done.

Billy: Yeah.

Lily: It’s done, right? And chelsea was right about one thing — all you can do now is just forge ahead in a positive direction… ’cause everyone is struggling. Everyone, including you. You’re the emotional rock of the group. You know, you’re trying to figure it all out. You’re trying to take care of everyone. And I know how exhausting that can be. So, if you want to vent, you know, or… take a break from anything… it’s okay.

Victoria: The only direction that we’re going in is the one that’s right for johnny.

Chelsea: I just want what’s best for him.

Victoria: But what I’m hearing from you is what you want. And this is exactly what I knew would happen. You’re trying to weasel your way into my son’s life, even after billy obviously told you that johnny doesn’t want anything to do with you.

Chelsea: Johnny is still a child. He doesn’t know what he wants.

Victoria: Oh, wait, hold on a second. Now he’s a child? I thought he was old enough to know the truth. So, which is it? So none of us are going to be nudging johnny along. But what billy and i are gonna be doing is reminding him every day that he’s loved and that his life is not gonna change and that he’s not obligated to build and maintain a relationship that he’s uncomfortable with.

Chelsea: I love him, too. I’m just asking that he be open to knowing every part of himself.

Victoria: Oh, I’m sorry. You gave up your rights to johnny when you signed away your rights as his mother. This is his life. This is his decision to make. And I hope with every ounce of my being that you’re not trying to influence him because I am the only mother that he has ever known and I will not stand for it.

Summer: Still have a few minutes before our meeting. How did diane seem at society?

Kyle: She was in pretty good spirits, but tell me what happened when you pulled phyllis aside.

Summer: Oh, she’s still not ready to fully trust diane, but she sees now how useless it is to continue their feud. She wants her family to be happy.

Kyle: That is a pretty good start.

Summer: Our moms making peace is the perfect way to go into our vow renewal ceremony. Nothing is going to get in the way of the celebration now.

Jack: Thank you. And thank you for waiting for my food with me.

Diane: Oh, of course. I couldn’t leave behind such great company.

[ Cellphone pings ] Excuse me.

Jack: Everything alright?

Diane: Oh, yes, ev– everything’s fine. Um, I’ve — I’ve got to run. Just enjoy your lunch.

[ Breathing heavily ]
