Interview with actors Natalie Zea, Eoin Macken, Nicholas Gonzalez, Veronica St. Clair, Jack Martin and Zyra Gorecki; and executive producer David Appelbaum of “La Brea” on NBC by Suzanne 9/15/22

This was for a TV Critics Assocation panel. They have them twice a year, and they’re a lot of fun. We’re not allowed to use photos, videos or transcripts from them, though, so I’m having to quote and paraphrase what was said here. I hope you enjoy it! I love this show. It’s even more exciting this season.

Those of us in the press saw the first episode of the show ahead of time. A lot happens in that first episode, and (MINOR SPOILER) Izzy’s artificial leg is damaged. I tried to ask Zyra Gorecki about that, without giving away too much. She admitted that, “both physically and emotionally, she’s having a very difficult time. So the goal is, obviously, they land in Seattle, they’re trying to make it back to L.A., right? That’s a very long walk. That’s a very long walk with two completely there legs, let alone, you know, one leg and a dad that’s got a lot of issues, you know?” I think she put it very well and without giving spoilers. Just know that all is not what it seems when the show starts! There are many surprises in the first episode, so you don’t want to miss it.

Another member of the press asked whether that idea about her leg was from the writers’ or from Gorecki herself. Showrunner David Appelbaum answered that the writers came up with the idea but consulted Gorecki. Gorecki said that it was “very weird” to imagine herself in 10,000 BC and having that happen.

Many journalists were at the panel and asked their questions. Appelbaum was asked whether this season has the same amount of both CGI and non-CGI special effects as last season. He confirmed that there were many special effects this season because the audience expects that, given the setting. He thinks the audience will enjoy it this season even more. He was also asked about physical things the cast interacts with when there is the CGI effect, such as a mastodon. Applebaum explained that sometimes they just use their imagination, while other times they have a proxy that they use. He praised the cast for their imagination and creativity.

Macken joked that their director, Adam Davidson, waves his hands and runs around, which works for him. Everyone laughed. Gonzalez agreed, saying that it can be hard to keep a straight face when Davidson is dressed up in a blue leotard and doing animal impressions. He and Macken joked a bit more about that.

The actors were then asked whether they had “unique acting challenges” this season. Martin spoke vaguely about some problems involved with being in a different time period and having to imagine his own family at that age. Macken added that he felt the scripts were very exciting. He praised Applebaum for giving the actors details about what’s going on in the story and with their characters, so that they can share in the journey and the action.

Gorecki was also asked about a scene where she pet a particular prehistoric baby animal. She replied that it was a foam head of a baby rhino, which Davidson held and wiggled at her. She laughed that it was “super entertaining.” She was also asked about how different it is this season, now that she’s working more with CGI and doing more action. She related that it was very different and had to act like this fake animal was trying to hurt her. She told us that “being afraid of something that isn’t there is wild,” and then she laughed.

Next, Martin was asked about having to learn about a new time period in which his character, Josh, lands. He revealed that he was already obsessed with that decade, especially the music and movies that he loves. He consulted with his relatives and looked at old photos to get an idea about the costumes. He can’t wait for us to see it. Applebaum added that Riley is also a huge part of that story with Josh. St. Clair spoke about how great this new storyline is. She praised their new time period, especially the hair, the costumes and the music. She also loved that it was very different from last season when they had to work in the mud, rain and Australian winter. Zea, whose character stays in 10,000 BC, made a joke about how she shouldn’t rub it in, and everyone laughed.

Gonzalez was asked how his character has evolved since last season. He spoke about how his character is principled and upstanding, yet he had an affair with Eve. Things are different this season because he has to keep everyone safe but is faced with this woman that he loves. He shares that there will be a big test to find out whether friendship or love will win out.

He was also asked whether he still runs because (according to Wikipedia), “he was an accomplished cross-country and track runner, winning the Texas State Championship in the mile and two-mile.” The reporter saw him run when he was in college. Gonzalez answered that he just started running again, so he found it interesting that he was asked this now.

The actors were all asked what they liked most about their characters. Zea told us that she likes that Eve felt like she was just a regular person, but now that she’s faced with this “extraordinary situation,” she is struggling both externally and internally about herself. She also likes that she’s flawed.

Macken shared that he likes how his character is involved with his children and not just his ex-wife. He enjoyed this season’s father-daughter journey, and how Izzy can understand her father more. Gorecki agreed that it’s fun to see how different Izzy and Gavin interact this season, and how she takes more control and grows more.

Martin answered that he thinks his story “is about agency and self actualization.” He likes how Josh is forced to grow up and take on more responsibility than most 17-year-olds and to be heroic, even though “he’s definitely still a kid.”

Gonzalez likes how Levi has to navigate his relationships with Eve and her family, as well as the rest of the characters.

Sinclair likes how Riley is “resilient,” especially when dealing with her father and the other “temperamental men,” even though (as she noted), she’s usually wearing a skirt.

Another question was about what will happen when everyone gets back together – especially with the love triangle, and now that Eve knows that Gavin wasn’t crazy, like she thought.

Zea answered that there will be “Fireworks, baby,” which Applebaum agreed with. She went on to say that she believes they cooperate very well together because of the life or death circumstances. Macken agreed that they had to put their survival ahead of their “emotional complexities.” Gonzalez and Macken joked around a bit about it until Zea said, “All right, boys. You’re both pretty,” which made everyone laugh.

Appelbaum was asked about expanding the original world, which was set in 10,000 BC. He thinks the show has a lot of potential for more growth. He praised NBC, Universal, and all the people that he’s worked with, who have been so supportive, and the writers. He loves how they keep finding “these different layers and elements of what this world is and what the characters are and where the show can go.” He thinks it’s exciting to peel back all the layers. Gonzalez added that as actors, it’s fun to jump into the different time periods and how unpredictable the story is. Martin also chimed in to say how much he likes it when the characters go to different times and places where they’re forced to change.

Gorecki was asked about which city in Michigan she’s from, but she said that it’s a very small town, so she won’t say where because of stalkers. She was also asked how the story about her being an amputee came about. She passed the question to Appelbaum, who said that it was always part of this story, even before they found Gorecki. They did an exhaustive search to find the right actor, he said, and they were very lucky to find Gorecki because “she has this great charisma and this natural talent and just immediately inhabited the role.” He praised her growth in season two.

Appelbaum was asked where he was when he learned that they were being renewed for season two. He laughed and said that they just had a baby, so he was feeding the baby with a bottle when he heard. This was a very sweet way to end our panel!

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hey, I, I, I didn’t expect you back so soon.

I, uh, decided to go to the police station instead of the spectator office. Oh, why? I had to see Leah Stark. I had to, Here’s denial in person. And I know how much he wanted it to be him. I wanted it to be him too, just so that this nightmare would begin to be over. But I think Gwe is right. I don’t think he did it.

I’ve got the Salom prison blue

and it ain’t gold. Base for

good. God. Thought someone was torturing a cat. Rub salt in the open wound. Did you come here to gloat? Yes. After you said you were gonna help me, No, I’m here to tell you that you were wrong about Craig Wesley setting you up. You said you believed me. I did. It was Clyde Weston, right? It’s him. Matt Clyde Weston.

Nancy’s new boyfriend. It. Sit, sit, sit. Really want some tea? Have her a stick drink. Oh God. Nancy, I’m sorry. I know what Justin said upset you. It’s okay, buddy. Justin was right. What? What are you talking about? I never showed up for the wedding, but the police did. They had a warrant for his arrest. He’s the one that stabs son.

And what’s worse? So much worse. Oh, honey, go on. Go on honey. They said that. Take your time, buddy. They said that he killed Aga. Oh God. Oh my God. I suspected, but I didn’t wanna believe it. I’m so sorry. I’m trying so hard not to believe it now, but I kept saying it that God, that I know he would never do such horrible things, but nothing I said changed their mind.

Well, Nancy, they had to have proof. Yes, but I just kept right on arguing with him, and I just had this little voice inside of me saying to me, Are you arguing because you think you’re right. Or are you arguing because you’re terrified that you are wrong? Bonnie? Honey. Honey. Oh.

Cause I want you to tell me what you did to my Abby, or you have two seconds to live. One. Okay. Okay. Settle down like I said. I went over there looking for Be Brady. I was, um, wearing gloves because I was gonna send a message to EJ because EJ told her that you shot him. Yeah, yeah. I was gonna fix it. So he’d find her strangled to death, but, um, you know, I couldn’t find her anywhere.

It seemed like I had broken the house for none. Um,

but then I ran into your wife.

What the hell are you doing here?

Like sands through the hour glass, so are the days of lives.

So Clyde Weston is the one who framed me. That’s what the cops are saying. Well, it does make sense. I did get him in a little trouble sticking him with the jewelry I lifted from Abigail’s room, but he had an alibi. What’s the big deal? Unless he’s doing this for Nancy? Yeah. Okay. He totally lost me. Well, I stole his girlfriend’s husband, so he frames me for stabbing son.

I, He should be thanking me. It’s because of me that she was back on the market. Like could you just listen?

He didn’t just stab Sunny PDE also killed Abigail. Oh my God. He’s a monster. Yeah. Yeah, he is. So it’s been Clyde Weston from the beginning and he’s finally found the right man.

How many times have we been told that the police have the person who killed Abigail? And how many times has it turned out that they were wrong? I, I just had this gut feeling that it wasn’t Leo, why Leo told me things that he hadn’t told the police. Like what? Like he used a steak knife to open Abigail’s jewelry box and left it on her dresser.

That’s. The real killing was to found it. Yeah. Why would he hold back something like that from the police? He would’ve been a gift to the da. He would’ve put Leo and had gal’s bedroom with a knife. All that we had to do is say that Abigail walked in on Leo, interrupted a robbery. Leo panicked and killed her.

This is, this is just, This is just too much. I. It’s the police, Jack Devo. Hey, Jack and Sean. I’m glad you called him. Listen, I just came from seeing Leo Stark. I don’t think he did it. We’re way ahead of you. I’m calling to let you know that we put out an APB on Clyde Western, not Greg Wesley. I climb down on my, fell apart.

The, uh, the video footage that cleared him, it was faked. And I just wanted you and Jennifer to be the first to know it’s. And, uh, now we just gotta find him.

Okay, So you’re in the house and then you were in the Abby, and what did you do? But what do you think I did? I lied. I asked you a question. Will you Butler let me in. Oh, I’m sorry. I, I’m here to discuss a business opportunity with your husband at this hour. What do I just get off my day? You know what made this proposal to EJ first and he turned me down.

But I had a hunch, a smart fella like your husband would know a good deal when Selma. Hmm. Yeah. You know, uh, Chad a smart, but so am I. Did you think I would notice you wearing gloves in the middle of June

if she only had just not started in with all the damn questions?

Sean said they’re absolutely certain that client’s their man. Oh, they’re absolutely certain about someone they cleared months ago. Know I know what this whole investigation is doing to you. It’s doing the same thing. Me just keep telling yourself that people are safe, but they’re not safe. Nobody is safe.

Abigail’s killer is still out there waiting. I’ll tell you what, why, why don’t we, we’ll go to the police together and we’ll make them tell us everything they can. It’s got to be better than sitting around here waiting for the phone to ring. Oh, it’s, no, you, you go, I, I’m not feeling so well. Well then I’m not going anywhere.

Oh, no, no. If you do what you, you think’s right. You know, you, you go to the police station. I’m not leaving you alone if you feel sick. Well, I’m not gonna be alone. I mean, Doug and Julie are right upstairs and I I don’t feel sick. Exactly. It’s just. This is just a lot, you know, it’s a lot to take in and, and, and I, I think it would just make things worse sitting around the police station.

So I must have showed up after I grabbed the jewelry and then took off. Yeah, I guess. But why, What did he hear? Have against down the Gail? I, Why do you dare? You’re gonna be less out of here in a few hours.

Well, why you came me like that? I’m trying to figure out why you made a special trip to give me all this info. Wasn’t for you. I wouldn’t even be in here. So now, or even, Cause it wasn’t too long ago, I was on the other side of those bars because you couldn’t shut your big mouths. Are you still playing me?

I just told you who the murderer is. How, how? How is that playing? One I know you. And two, if they’re so short, Clyde, why am I in the cell? Instead of him? Maybe they can. He’s on their own with fancy, isn’t he? I could see it now. The two of them cutting a SWAT across the Midwest on a crime spree, like a new vo.

Bonnie and Clyde get it. Of course she’s gonna have to change her name. Clyde didn’t even show up at City Hall. Well, he probably knew the cops were after

it’s Chloe. I just can’t, No, let me, let me, It’s okay. Let me. Hey, honey. Uh, yeah, it’s Bonnie. Your mom is with me and she’s okay. She just, um, she really can’t come to the phone right now. No. She’s gonna stay with me a while and she’ll call you when he’s feeling better. Okay. Hi. You don’t have to thank me.

She’s my friend.

She’s worried about you and why wouldn’t she be ? I don’t know whether I’m desperate or just stupid. Maybe I’m a combination of both. Don’t, don’t. You dare do that. Money. All I wanted was someone to love me, and all Clyde wanted was a warm bed in somebody to vouch for him a needy bra who could make him legit after his time in prison.

Well, he sure found her.

You broke into a woman’s house and you didn’t want her asking you questions. You just didn’t like that she was onto you, did you? You stupid bastard. Are you sure you want to hear this? You wanna keep living talk,

hear the boss.

Yeah. I do feel a little silly wearing gloves, but what happened was I was taking a pot off the stove at the pub. It was so dang hot. It blistered my fingers just wearing the gloves. Keep the lotion off. Hm. Well, maybe you need more than lot. So why don’t you take the gloves off and let me look at your hands.

I don’t see any need to do that. That’s what I thought. Why is it that every crook I know decided to stop by tonight? What do you baling about? My sister’s supposed to be in prison. She breaks in for a chat. Now you so tell you what, why don’t you come up with a more believable story? I’m gonna go call the police.

You don’t get your hands off me,

Abby. You know, we can just stop right here. The rest is gonna be even harder on you. You probably don’t even want see me anymore. Go, go. I told you I wanted to hear it all and I.

Was the wedding cold off? Was it even here? Nancy was, Clyde was a no-show. He must have figured you were off after him. Now keep dumped Nancy at the altar. I mean, he is the type, No, when I saw him, he was all dressed up and acted like everything was fine. Have you been in Tuss with Ben? No, I haven’t been able to reach him.

There’s no way Clark could have seen this arrest coming. I just, It doesn’t make any sense. Ej, We have to tell him everything. The whole story. I don’t know what you mean the hell. You don’t what whole story.

Even iFLY is on the run. The police should have caught ’em by now. Even you have managed to evade them for quite a while. I don’t, I don’t think there’s ever been a crowd that you can blend. I’ll take that as a company. I don’t care if you believe me or not about Clyde. I’ve come here to tell you what I know, and now I’m gonna go worry about all the other things I need to worry about.

Don’t go Gwe, I’m sorry. I do believe you. And I’m sorry. I told the police you didn’t.

Sorry That I told them why to find. I deserved it. Anything I can do to make it up to you?

Maybe you could help me figure out what to do about my pill Popping stepmother,

do you remember when we were in Boston together at your grandma? And we talked and we talked and it helped both of us so much.

Who am I gonna talk to now about how much I miss you?

Oh, Abigail.

Well, it seems like I’m just adding to your problems here, but like I said, you’re the boss.

When I saw that knife on the table, I saw way out of the mess. I then,

why don’t you put that phone down before you regret it? Where did that come from? That’s the least. Your worries right now. You really think you’re gonna get away with threatening me? You know, everything has fallen into place for me right now and I swore I’d never go back to prison. So I’ll be Dan if I let you ruin my life like you ruin my sons.

Are you blaming me for Ben’s problems? When he was a kid, you used to beat him within an inch of his life, and him and me were working through that and he was doing just fine until he got tangled up with you. You were living with Ben and cheating on him with Rich Boy Amira, and you got yourself knocked up and tried to pass that baby off as his, I thought that I was telling the truth about the baby because you changed the paternity results.

All I know is my boy ended up in a psycho award and you ended up.

So does that really justify threatening me with a knife? Oh, it ain’t all about you, Missy. Your fancy bad singer brother-in-law suddenly remembered it was me. You got him shot. You did that. Dayja told him to keep his mouth shut. He goes and grabs it to that lady lawyer friend of his walking by. To teach him a lesson and shut her up for good.

Well, unfortunately for you, DJ and aren’t here. Yeah. Figured that out. But you knew him. I told DJ that if he did let his mouth, I was coming after his family and sisters mom. They’re. Right. Ain’t not right.

And now we get down to the real nitty gritty.

Chad’s got a gun and you didn’t tell me on the phone that he went looking for Clyde. We don’t know that for sure. Okay. What is a guy like Chad gonna do with a gun? All I told Bell was that the gun wasn’t in the safe. That doesn’t mean Chad has it. I don’t even know if the gun was in this safe. No, that’s not what you said before, ej.

I was mistaken. Now you’re just wasting my time. Listen, I know you think you’re protecting Chad. Now I’m gonna go check with building Security and see if they’ve seen Chad or Clyde, and then I’m gonna put an APB out on Chad. So you keep him here. You keep him outta my way,

I’m sorry, but he needs to know

now you tell me what you did to her and you make it fast. And after that, I’m done with you.

Is that what

you come from Heaven to let me know that you are right

or are you, are you a.

Are, are you here because I miss you so much.

Huh? I know what you are

you the answer to my prayers?

you,

you know, I didn’t want the stand in judgment of Jennifer and not a good look for you. For the minute I said something to her, she said that if I told Jack, she would just unleash on me the saint did. Jennifer, you’re the highest a kite. Jennifer, are you sure? Yes, I’m sure. I’ve spent all those years with my mom.

She said if I even open my mouth to Jack, that she would she’d ruin what little relationship I have left with him. Hmm. Feeling stuck Are. God, I’ve really progressed in my relationship with Jack. I don’t wanna ruin that. And he really cares about Jennifer. He deserves to know what she’s doing to herself.

Maybe he can help her. This is why you and I have got to get back to being tighter than Channing Tatum’s. You my dear, have lost your edge. I have not. I have more edge now than before. What is the golden rule of Grif? Always look out for old number one. Telling daddy about his wife’s drug problem isn’t gonna get you squat.

In fact, it might get you less than squat. So we’re gonna take that off the table. Wow, this is brilliant advice. Okay, now I know you’ve got off to spend a little time with Cousin Mattie. You’ll be back to your selfish self in no time. You know, Jennifer, dipping into mother’s little helpers could actually work out for you.

Oh, can’t wait to hear where this goes next. Well, you wanna be closer to your dad, right? When Jen goes off the rails, he’s gonna need someone’s lean on. We know it isn’t gonna be happen. Ah, Matt, what? Bottom line. Jennifer’s pill habit is Jennifer’s problem, not yours. When I finally get out of here, you and I are gonna have a drink to that

here. Just don’t drink it too fast. All right. All right. Let’s put this down for a second. Actually, come here a little. Do not blame yourself because you got conned by an expert. First of all, honey, he fooled the cops too. What’s wrong with trusting? What’s wrong? With believing in love? We should all be as openhearted as you.

It’s so easy for you because you have Justin. Yes, and I thank my lucky stars every day for that. But that’s because for my entire life, I didn’t think I deserve what I have now. Oh, no. Yeah. No. I was as down on myself as you are now. But I am here to tell you it does get better. It does now. You learned a hard lesson.

You don’t let to guard down until you know everything there is to know about a med, right? Right. So now you need to believe in yourself, don’t you? Gar Clyde or Craig take that away from you? They have no, look at me. They have already taken away so much.

Thank you.

One. Jack, what are you doing here? Well, I came here looking for an update, but it looks like it already down on the search. You probably should know that about Clyde Western. Yeah, I already know. It’s actually why I’m here. I’ve just told Leo. Well, I guess it’s just a waiting game now. I should, I should probably be getting back to Jennifer.

You left her home alone. Well, no, I’m Doug and Julia there. Why? Sorry. I dunno. I’m just a bit junky. You know, all this western business, him being out on the. Gwen, I’ve gotten to know when you’re not telling me the whole truth,

you’re right, I’m not. There’s something that you need to know about Jennifer.

I miss you every second of every.

People keep talking to me about closure, but I feel like there’s this part of me that’s just been ripped off.

How do you close a wound like that?

I started, I started taking these again, just just to get to the. I, I, I really don’t want to, I just, I know, I know. I promise that I never would, again, I wouldn’t touch them, but

I, I just don’t know how else I can go on living without you.

It’s just, if I just understood why I need that. I just, I just need that so much. Is that why you’re here? Is that why you’re here to, to tell me the truth, because I need that so badly. I need that more than I need these. I need that more than I need anything.

Can’t you guess what happened next? You really warm spelled out for you. Yeah. What I want, it’s for you to use the last few minutes of your rotten life to tell me what you did to my. You asked for it. You so bitch. You’re not gonna get away with this.

Yeah, the output from security cameras is on here, so if Chad or Cly went through that foyer, this camera would’ve picked them up. Let’s see here. Camera one

doesn’t show which way they went when they. There’s gotta be a better angle from another camera. So you got, uh, camera one. Camera one’s got a perfect view of the outside door.

Do you have any idea where tab taken?

I took our kids to a movie. We were eating popcorn and laughing. While you were doing that to her,

did you enjoy it?

Dejo,

How do you know that Jennifers taking prescription drugs? Well, I went back into the house because I’d forgotten my purse, and she was holding the bottle in her hand and I could see from the first three letters on the generic label, I knew instantly what they were. Are you sure what you saw? I was blackmailed into delivering the same things with Dr.

Feel good last summer? Yes. Yes. I’m sure. No, no, no, no. You can be right. I mean, I mean, yes, she had a problem before, but she, she, she wouldn’t get back into that stuff again. She’s stronger now. Strong enough to deal with the brutal murder of her only daughter.

No, you can’t be right,

Jack. I. I told her that I knew and she threatened to turn you against me if I said anything. God, you.

When,

Oh my God.

Okay.

So you stabbed my wife. You left it for dead. You sent your message to ej. What did Sonny ever do to you? Why would you go after my best friend too?

Had nothing to do with you. I wasn’t even planning on it. I read in the paper how Leo Stark was saying that when somebody confessed to kill an Abigail, I knew that wouldn’t own the, I mean if anyone knew she was innocent, it’s me and somebody had to pay for the craft. So to I figure who better than that little pansy Cause Nancy so much trouble as she told me.

He made a list of all the people he was gonna get even with. I knew all I had to do was get ahold of that list,

took her right out of his bag when Idiot wouldn’t looking sure enough Abigail’s name was there. So all I had to do was take out somebody else on that list and it would look like he was knocking ’em off on that one.

Could have been Chloe, you know, cuz of Nancy and um, Brady Black. Same thing, which left, um, you and son, but I guess you looked down. So I started trailing Leo. He led me in light to your Buddy’s office. All I had to do is wait, he’s back to me and. He used the same guy. I used with Abigail, and then all I had to do was set the scene.

Is that enough detail for you? I mean, I could probably describe the blood stains to the floor if you’d like me to. I’ll be satisfied when you’re dead. Yeah. You know, you keep saying that, but you haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

Thank you so much for trying to make me feel better, but I don’t know how I’m ever gonna come back from this one two punch. Honey, I’m not gonna be able to walk into a room without people pointing and whispering about me, honey, if I worried about stuff like that, I’d have to live in a desert of Mars.

Seriously, some place where nobody knows who I am and that ain’t happening. I judged in this household every day before breakfast. No, it’s true , but not by Justin kk. I live life the man I love. And that makes it worth, and you are gonna have that too. Did you have to? No. You have to promise me that you’re not gonna stop trying to be happy and don’t ever stop believing in love.

Jennifer, Jen, Jennifer, Honey, are.

Was Clyde. I swear I’m gonna make him paid. Anyone who ever hurt. Anyone who ever even thought about hurting you, I swear

they will be sorry they ever hurt.

Oh, there’s no sign of ej. It’s like he just disappeared in the thin air. Well, he probably thinks he knows where Chad is. Oh, great. So I got a murder on the loose and I got two Demira brothers with revenge on their brains. Beautiful.

You don’t have the guts. Do your big man. Show your mouth. Come on. Come on. Shoot in our man and cold blood.

Okay.

Yeah, he’ll be with Abigail soon. Now, Chad won’t take long now.

[ Dramatic music ]

Steffy: Brooke said what?

Taylor: That thomas is dangerous, and that he hasn’t changed one bit.

Steffy: Oh, my god. When will brooke let up?

Taylor: I don’t know. I don’t know. But these attacks on your brother’s character are just getting worse and worse.

Steffy: Who does she think she is? Like, calm down, woman. Oh, my gosh.

Steffy: Look, it’s fine. She can come after me all she wants, bring it on. But to come after my kids? It’s like she’s looking for things to pick apart.

Steffy: Brooke thrives on conflict, and she’s always had issues with thomas and me.

Taylor: It’s ridiculous that she’s claiming that thomas is a danger to his son.

Hope: What do you mean? I have seen thomas make strides in his relationship with douglas, so…

Brooke: He’s convinced everybody that he’s turned his life around. But the other side is still there. I know, I’ve seen it.

Hope: Okay, so then what exactly happened?

Brooke: Honey, I’m sorry. I know you don’t wanna believe the worst in thomas.

Hope: No, I don’T. But I also wanna know if my son is at risk. So, what are you saying? You said that you saw thomas with a knife around douglas?

Liam: Excuse me? What is this about thomas and a knife?

Thomas: Somebody is clearly overreacting.

Ridge: I told brooke there’s nothing to worry about.

Thomas: You know, I was, uh, I was cutting an apple with a knife, dad, like anyone would do.

Ridge: All right, she just felt that the blade was maybe too close to the kid.

Thomas: I’m not giving it to him, letting him throw against the wall or something.

Ridge: I know. I know all that. But you know brooke, and she doesn’t trust you yet.

Thomas: Clearly, if she’s thinking about calling child protective services on me.

Steffy: Tell me every word out of brooke’s mouth.

Taylor: Well, I can only go off of what thomas told me, and, oof.

Steffy: Why does she keep doing this to him? Thomas is proving himself every single day.

Taylor: She’s convinced that thomas is emotionally unstable, that douglas shouldn’t be with him.

Steffy: She needs to worry about her daughter. Hope’s unwillingness to compromise. They share custody.

Taylor: You’re right. You’re right, none of this is okay. She’s making thomas doubt himself, making him think he’s not capable of being a good father.

Steffy: Oh, my gosh.

Liam: Okay, so, thomas had a knife.

Brooke: Yes.

Liam: And, what?

Brooke: Well, it wasn’t just a butter knife from the kitchen. I mean, this was a good sized knife, and it was sharp, and he was using it to cut an apple.

Liam: Well, that’s not creepy.

Brooke: The thing is, he shouldn’t have been doing that right by douglas. Douglas was sitting right there.

Liam: So, douglas is just– is sitting there. And then thomas pulls out a knife and starts cut– like, what was going through his head at that moment?

Brooke: I don’t know. It’s not just the knife. I mean, I have doubts about just how healthy and well-adjusted thomas really is.

Thomas: You really think brooke would do that?

Ridge: I shouldn’t have mentioned anything to you.

Thomas: Report me for child endangerment?

Ridge: No, no one’s gonna report anybody. Because it’s not necessary. You are an amazing father to that little boy.

Thomas: Thanks, dad. I mean, it does mean a lot hearing you say that. I just– I just can’T. I just wish that brooke would stay out of our lives for good.

Thomas: Brooke really has no respect for me as a father.

Ridge: Yeah, I see it. And I’m sorry. You worked so hard to get here. So hard, and everyone can see it. Everyone but brooke.

[ Knocking on door ]

Charlie: Hey, boss. Uh, you were asking if– if brooke had left the building?

Ridge: Yeah.

Charlie: Well, she’s in the design office with– with hope and liam.

Ridge: Okay. Thank you, charlie.

Charlie: You bet. I’m here for you.

Ridge: Charlie.

Charlie: Yeah. Yeah?

Ridge: Would you mind getting the door, please.

Charlie: Oh, sure.

Ridge: That’s your head of security.

Thomas: Yeah. Um, I just hate that brooke is giving you all this grief.

Ridge: I just want some peace for my family.

Thomas: That… that’s honestly what would be best for douglas.

Ridge: I know.

Thomas: I don’t know. I just– I can’t stand the idea that anyone would think that my house isn’t safe for him. Like, look, I’m gonna go home. I’m gonna make sure that– that it’s the safest place that it possibly can be.

Ridge: Come here. I believe in you.

Thomas: That means more than you can know.

Ridge: You put your son first, that’s all you can do.

Thomas: I just, um… I don’t know why brooke has to always come in and start drama and make the whole situation just– blow it out of proportion. You know what? I don’t need to blow up on you at all. It’s just, uh– I’ll just put it behind me. You know, actually, you should probably start heading over to the house ’cause douglas is waiting for you. Spend time with his grandpa.

Ridge: I’ve been looking forward to that all day.

Thomas: And then you can see just how safe that house is for a little boy.

Ridge: I don’t have to go over there to see that. I see the smile on his face every day.

Thomas: Oh. I know he’s looking forward to hanging out with you. He always has a great time.

Ridge: You always have a great time.

Thomas: Hey, I’m going to stay here and finish up some work, and then I’ll head over and meet you there.

Ridge: Sounds good.

Thomas: Uh, dad? I just wanna say it means so much knowing that you believe in me. I mean, I wouldn’t be the man that I am without you.

Taylor: Thomas has completely changed himself for the better.

Steffy: We know that. Dad knows that. But, brooke? She keeps making a case out of every little detail. Thomas is holding a knife in front of his son? It’s not like he’s waving it around in front of his face.

Taylor: No, no. But brooke only sees her own made up version of thomas.

Steffy: Partly because it benefits her daughter. We all know that hope wants full control over douglas, and brooke is just stirring the pot.

Taylor: Thomas has worked so hard to redeem himself, to rebuild his life. And brooke refuses to give him credit.

Steffy: She doesn’t give thomas a fair chance.

Taylor: You know, it breaks my heart for thomas. And also for ridge.

Steffy: But what does that say about the woman he’s married to? The more brooke condemns thomas, the closer she gets to losing dad.

Brooke: You should’ve seen the way thomas was glaring at me while holding that knife.

Liam: So– okay, wait. So, just wait. So, at first, he’s just, like, totally dismissive of you when you ask him to put the knife away, and then he proceeds to, like, taunt you with it?

Brooke: Whatever his intentions were, it was very unsettling.

Hope: Well, I’m just relieved to hear that douglas wasn’t fully aware of it.

Liam: Yeah, that we know of.

Brooke: Okay, so the knife was very concerning, but what’s even more concerning is the fact that thomas is not bringing douglas home.

Hope: Okay, well, mom, douglas has asked to spend more time with his father, so…

Brooke: Honey, he’s a kid, and he’s at a very impressionable age. And of course, he wants to spend time with his father, but unfortunately, thomas is not a healthy father figure. I mean, think of all the horrible things that he’s done.

Liam: Kinda hard to forget.

Brooke: He’s been devious, unpredictable and he may have fooled some people, but not me. I’m gonna do everything I can to keep douglas safe. Okay everyone,

Steffy: Nothing could justify brooke bashing my brother.

Taylor: No, her perception of thomas is just a byproduct of her own warped sense of reality.

Steffy: She’s always like, “how can I twist this in a way that benefits me?”

Taylor: It’s so frustrating.

Steffy: Beyond. Brooke is way off base.

Taylor: You know, she will never love anything of mine.

Steffy: Except your husband.

Taylor: That’s a good point. You know, she has always resented both of you because you’re a part of me.

Steffy: Because we’re dad’s first family. His real family. We’re like a living, breathing connection of you two, and she can’t stand it.

Taylor: But brooke shouldn’t hold that against you.

Steffy: Well, she does.

Taylor: Yeah.

Steffy: Even if she doesn’t realize it. Thomas, he’s completely changed. He’s so devoted to his son.

Taylor: His whole world revolves around douglas.

Steffy: He’s not even dating anyone.

Taylor: No, he doesn’T. He– he works all day. And then he goes home to eric’s just to be with his son.

Steffy: And brooke finds fault in that. She’s digging her own grave.

Taylor: She is, but– but I don’t– I don’t know if ridge will ever see it like that.

Steffy: This time, it’s different. Mark my words. If brook continues to see thomas as some screwed up loser who doesn’t know how to parent his child, that’s gonna push dad away real quick.

Douglas: Checkmate.

Ridge: What?

Douglas: Yeah.

Ridge: Really?

Douglas: Did you see that?

[ Sighing ]

Ridge: How many is that?

Douglas: Today? Three times in a row. But the running tally is grandpa–

Ridge: The great one.

Douglas: Okay, the great one, five. Douglas–

Ridge: The apprentice.

Douglas: The apprentice. Come on. Douglas, 67.

Ridge: 67? Just remember who taught you.

Douglas: Come on, you don’t have to let me win.

Ridge: I’m not letting you win.

Douglas: “There’s an art to it.” That’s what you said when you were teaching me.

Ridge: I know, well you’re an artist. Not just at this, but– your drawings are amazing. Little picasso.

Douglas: Yeah. You know, dad’s been helping me lately.

Ridge: He’s a talented man.

Douglas: Yeah, runs in the family.

Ridge: Does now. How do you like living here? With your dad and my dad?

Douglas: Yeah, it’s awesome. You know, I’m having– having such a good time.

Ridge: We all love you very much. All right, set ’em up, come on. Not losing again.

Douglas: Okay.

Ridge: 67…

Hope: Well, thank you for coming with me to get coffee. Well, of course, far be it from me to keep you from your caffeine fix. Besides, my meeting got pushed back, so. You’re stuck with me a little while longer.

Hope: I guess I’ll have to deal.

Liam: I know.

Hope: Ugh, no…

Liam: What? Do I smell?

Hope: No! My mom forgot her purse, which means she will be back soon to retrieve it, I’m sure. Speaking of, um… so, what do you make of what she had to share?

Liam: She could’ve shared nothing at all, and my position would remain the same. I think it’s time for douglas to come home.

Hope: I miss him, too, liam.

Liam: Yeah, so does beth, and we keep trying to explain it to her, and I’m sure she’s super weirded out and confused by now.

Hope: No, I know. I know, but I don’t want to force douglas if he isn’t ready yet.

Liam: Listen, okay– let me agree with you about something. If I’m a little kid, being over at eric’s is probably awesome, right? All the nooks and crannies and places to explore, I’m sure he’s having a great time, but home is home, and home is with us.

Hope: I want nothing more than to be able to walk in that room and tuck my son into bed. But at the same time, I don’t wanna be the one that impedes on all this progress that he is making with his father. You know, and I’ve been over there and I’ve seen–

Liam: Yeah, well, don’t get me started on that. I know. Listen. Bottom line, bottom line, douglas can go over there literally any time he wants with the appropriate supervision. But even now that– thomas is carrying a knife around? Like, that does not sit well with me.

Hope: Me neither.

Liam: Okay, okay. So don’t let thomas intimidate you. You have to make it clear that douglas has to return to his normal waking life, which is home with us. Like, are we– are we still on the same page about that? And now please welcome ana montoya.

Taylor: You know, brooke feels like her marriage is under fire, like she’s not the one burning it to the ground. So, she’s attacking my children.

Steffy: Dad’s not gonna put up with that much longer.

Taylor: I don’t know, steffy, come on. How many times have we said that? I know that you want your father and me back together, and you want your family whole. I do, too. But, honey, it can’t just be because of brooke’s toxic drama. It has to be because your father really wants to be with us.

Steffy: I get that.

Taylor: Okay.

Steffy: But mom, you have to have faith. His whole demeanor changes when he’s with you, when he’s around the kids. I know you see that. And it seems like dad’s a little more present these days. It’s like he’s trying to make up for all that lost time. And it seems like he’s been more caring and thoughtful, especially over these last few months.

Taylor: That’s true. You know, your father is– is so proud of you and thomas. He really is, and… oh, he loves his grandchildren so much. He’d do anything for you.

Steffy: This whole knife overreaction… implying that thomas is a risk to douglas? Are you kidding me? That’s ridiculous. That’s a new low for brooke. I see dad’s eyes opening. He wants to hang around us more. He wants to be with you, mom.

Liam: I understand that you don’t want this to turn into a giant custody battle.

Hope: It’s the last thing that any of us needs right now.

Liam: Yes, I know. Granted, that would not be ideal. But, your mom still has a point. When it comes to somebody like thomas, we have to be extra vigilant, right? You don’t just– with somebody like that, you don’t just take their word for it that suddenly, they’re a happy, healthy, well-adjusted, psychologically normal, sensible person, right? I mean, the– the kind of– of issues, of deep-seated psychological issues that thomas had or still has. I mean, that, that– that stuff takes years– years in therapy to unravel, if it can be unravelled at all. For all we know, thomas is pulling one over on all of us.

Hope: Okay. The story with the knife is disconcerting, but you also can’t deny the fact that that thomas’s overall behavior has shown improvement.

Liam: You’ve said that before. And I don’t wanna do it all again. In any case, we can’t just ignore what your mom witnessed, right? Yeah, I know douglas is having fun over there, but enough is enough. He needs to be home. He needs to be sleeping in his own bed. He needs to be sitting at the dinner table with his sister. He needs to return to his routine. Children thrive on routine, all right? It’s not like he doesn’t get to see thomas anytime he wants. All we want is for him to come home.

Brooke: Liam is right, and the only way we can guarantee douglas’s safety, is if he’s in your care. So, I am going to do everything I possibly can to get douglas back to you, liam and beth. Where he belongs.

Douglas: Got your bishop.

Ridge: No. How did– no. How did that happen?

Douglas: Great-granddad taught you how to play?

Ridge: Yeah, he did. I blame him.

Douglas: Maybe we could do a tournament tonight. You know, you, me, great-granddad, dad and maybe even donna, if she wants to.

Ridge: Donna? Yeah, I’m not– I’m not sure that donna knows how to play chess. You– you like being here, don’t you? In this house? Everyone loves having you here, and they just wanna make sure this is the most loving home you could be in. You got two homes, really, right? You got hope’s as well.

Douglas: Yeah, I really like it here.

Ridge: Good.

Douglas: Okay.

[Knocking on door]

Ridge: All right, give me one second. Hey, do not move any– any of these pieces. I know where I am.

Douglas: I’m not gonna.

Ridge: All right. Hi, can I help you?

Woman: Thomas forrester?

Ridge: Uh, no, he’s– he’s not here. Who are you?

Man: We’re from cps, child protective services.

Ridge: What?

Woman: We’re here to investigate a case regarding douglas forrester.

Thomas: Hey, how are you? Hey, dad. What– what’s going on?

Ridge: They’re from child protective services.

Thomas: Child protection services?

Ridge: They’re here about douglas.

Victoria: You got my invite for the meeting with the semiconductor firm that we’re acquiring?

Nick: Got it. I’ll be there.

Victoria: And you’re on top of the publicity team as far as making the announcement?

Nick: On it. Let’s talk about another one of our possible acquisitions. Are you still planning on acquiring chancellor-winters?

Victoria: Full steam ahead.

Nick: And you have run this by dad?

Victoria: I have. And he seems to be fully behind it.

Nick: Surprised you didn’t lead with that news.

Victoria: Yes, no, I’m very excited that dad is on board. Newman acquiring chancellor-winters would be a total game changer.

[ Sighs ] I’m sorry. I-I know I’m a little bit preoccupied today.

Nick: No, all good. Everything okay?

Victoria: Yeah, it’s fine. I-I just might need to run out for a little while. I might be a few minutes late for the meeting. So if you don’t mind getting the ball rolling, that would help me a lot, and I’ll be there as soon as I can.

Nick: Of course. You want to talk about it, vick? You do seem rattled today.

Victoria: I thought I was doing a better job of hiding things, but I guess you know me too well.

[ Sighs ] I have to deal with a personal matter with one of the kids, and it cannot go wrong.

Chelsea: Oh, hey.

Billy: Hi.

Chelsea: Do you mind if i join you?

Billy: No, please.

Chelsea: I’m really glad i bumped into you, actually. I wanted to thank you again for agreeing to tell johnny the truth about my connection to him. And for helping me convince victoria.

Billy: Oh, I don’t convince victoria to do anything. She makes up her own mind.

Chelsea: Well, despite her initial reservations, she seemed very understanding and open-minded.

Billy: Oh, that’s victoria most of the time. She’s very capable of seeing all sides of the situation.

Chelsea: Well, as far as my side goes, I promise, I plan to be very patient about the timing. You know, I know you and victoria need to find the perfect moment to talk to johnny, so…

Billy: Actually, you’re not gonna have to wait for very long. We plan on telling johnny today.

Audra: Thanks for meeting me this morning. I wanted to continue our conversation when I was well-rested.

Nate: I get the feeling that you’re sharper on no sleep than most ipo advisors are after eight hours.

Audra: [ Chuckles ] I’ll take the compliment. Sometimes, I do calculate profit/loss statements in my head to help me drift off.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] Tell me why I can see that.

[ Chuckles ] So, what would you like to know before walking into chancellor-winters?

Audra: None of my questions will matter if chancellor-winters isn’t going public. I’m hoping to hear during our meeting, but do you know if an official decision has been made?

Nate: I haven’t heard anything yet, but that just makes me more optimistic that it will happen.

Audra: In that case, why don’t you give me the lay of the land, the dynamics behind the scenes at the company? I like to know all the players before the games begin.

Lily: So I’m having the video call set up. Before we hop on, I just want to make sure that we’re still on the same page with the decision we made last night.

Devon: Yes, we are still on the same page, and I have not changed my mind one bit.

Lily: Okay, good. Alright, well, let’s do this.

Devon: Okay.

Jill: Hey there.

Lily: Hey. Good morning.

Devon: Thanks for hopping on with us, jill.

Jill: I’m just intrigued as to why you wanted to talk.

Devon: Lily and I are in agreement, and we are ready to take chancellor-winters public.

Jill: Oh, fantastic. Listen, you have made the right decision. From now on, chancellor-winters is going to be unstoppable.

Sally: So, last time we pitched to victoria, I just think we tried to cover too many topics at once. I’m just worried that our agenda got a little muddled, like we’re just trying to throw ideas at a wall, hoping something sticks. So this time I want to be more focused. Like, maybe we just go hard on our top two or three priorities.

Chloe: Okay, so you’re saying you want to just consolidate our to-do list?

Sally: Yeah, I mean, there’s so much we want to do, I just don’t want our enthusiasm to get the best of us.

Chloe: Yeah. Mm. Agreed. You know what? Since we’re all fueled up, you know, why don’t we just head back to the office and finish up?

Sally: Sounds good.

Adam: Hi, ladies. Plotting world domination this morning?

Sally: Every morning.

Adam: I don’t doubt that. I would never bet against you.

Sally: Smart man.

Chloe: Okay, what’s going on here? ‘Cause this polite banter is really freaking me out. So either we’re all just okay now, or someone is suddenly ready to explode.

Jill: I’m thrilled to get things moving. Oh, and you should connect with that ipo advisor that I recommended.

Lily: We are, with audra charles. We’ll be meeting with her later this morning.

Jill: Great. Wow. I’m loving how everything is just coming together.

Lily: Yeah, we are, too. I got to say, though, devon took some convincing.

Devon: Mm, I — that’s true. I did. Little bit.

Lily: But we’re on the same page now, and I assured him that we’ll orchestrate this in a way where we retain control of the company even after going public.

Jill: That’s exactly what i want. And by the way, where are your coos? I thought billy and nate would be in on this call. After the last one, I have to admit, I was a little concerned about nate.

Devon: There’s no need to be. That’s all been put to rest.

Jill: Okay, good. So billy and nate will be in on the meeting with miss charles.

Devon: Correct. Nate will be there.

Lily: Yeah, billy will be here later, as well. He’s just dealing with a family issue.

Jill: Is everyone okay?

Lily: Yeah, everyone’s fine. I’m sure he’ll fill you in later.

Jill: I won’t keep you, then. I have to tell you that I’m very excited about these latest developments, and I’ll check in with you later.

Lily: Okay. Thanks for everything, jill.

Devon: Talk to you later.

Jill: Okay.

Devon: Alright. Um…hey. I know that, uh, family always comes first, but what’s really going on with billy? ‘Cause for him to miss this meeting and then maybe miss the one with audra, it makes me question if his heart is really in this.

Chelsea: You’re going to talk to johnny today?

Billy: Yeah. Yeah. I’m going to go pick him up, and then we’re going to go — we’re going to go meet victoria.

Chelsea: Wow, that’s really exciting. Wow. I know I said earlier I was being patient, but that wasn’t entirely true. I could hardly sleep last night, realizing that johnny was going to know who I really am soon. I just didn’t realize it was going to be this soon, but —

Billy: Well, once we decided it was the right thing to do, we thought, “why wait?” Of course, as we’ve talked about, there’s no way to know how he’s going to react to the information.

Chelsea: Of course. I understand, and I’m not expecting any miracles right off the bat. This would be a lot of information for anyone to process, let alone a little boy of that age.

Billy: You know, johnny, he’s very attached to his family. You know, he likes his routine. And this is going to be a titanic change in his life.

Chelsea: I promise not to interfere with anything, but I do think that this will be a first big step towards something really healthy and rewarding for all of us.

Billy: I hope you’re right.

Victoria: Billy and I have come to a decision that we’re going to tell johnny that chelsea is his biological mother.

Nick: Wow. That’s huge. I know that’s not a decision you could’ve come to very easily. I remember a few years back, adam wanted to go to christian and tell him that he was his biological father. I was able to do some damage control, and, frankly, my boy was just too young to understand, but I know at some point in the future it’s something we’re all going to have to deal with.

Victoria: Up until now, I put it out of my mind. I just pushed it away, feeling that we would tell him eventually.

[ Sighs ] But chelsea has been asking questions lately, and somehow, I don’t know how it’s possible, but my little boy, he’s old enough to know the truth. He’s old enough to have a say in what comes next.

Nick: Vick, you are johnny’s mother. He adores you. You’ve been with him every step of his life, even before he could take his own steps.

Victoria: I know that deep down, and I’m always going to want what’s best for him, but I’m really — I’m just praying that I made the right choice.

Sally: Nothing is about to explode between me and adam, I’ve moved on. However, we both still work and live in this town, so I’m hoping that things can remain pleasant between us when we see each other around.

Adam: Completely agree. I have come to the conclusion that moving on is the best thing for both of us, as well. You made it pretty clear the other day there is no future for us, so I am stepping back to let you focus on the things you need to focus on. There’s no hard feelings, no reason for any awkwardness.

Sally: Great.

Adam: Well, I should… go. Okay.

Chloe: Okay, that exchange was civil and downright mature. I’m really proud of you for focusing on your own life instead of that jerk.

Sally: Yeah, well, I’m not that mature. That jerk is still on my mind but less and less every day.

Chloe: Onward and upward.

When moderate to severe

ulcerative colitis persists…

Nate: As you may know, jill is a force to be reckoned with.

Audra: Just one of the many reasons I liked her when we met.

Nate: She’s one of a kind, for sure. But these days, jill seems less interested in power and control than she is in providing a financial legacy for her family.

Audra: Got it.

Nate: Jill handpicked lily winters to run chancellor before the merger. It was lily’s idea to combine the two companies. She’s really hitting her stride as co-ceo and is only getting stronger by the day.

Audra: Sounds like my kind of woman.

Nate: Then there’s billy abbott, lilly’s coo.

Audra: Jill’s son.

Nate: Mm-hmm. And lily’s significant other. But that’s not the reason he has the job alone. Billy really knows what he’s doing, yet he is content in letting others take center stage.

Audra: You haven’t mentioned the other key player, devon hamilton.

Nate: Mm. Devon brought hamilton-winters to the party. He’s nothing if not focused and single-minded.

Audra: Mm.

Nate: Now, why don’t you tell me how you got into this business?

Audra: There’s plenty of time for that later. Right now, we have a meeting to get to and, hopefully, a company to take public.

Chloe: Okay, so let’s dig into this list of priorities.

Sally: Yeah, why don’t you start whittling them down? I’m just gonna go upstairs for a quick meeting with nick.

Chloe: Oh, you want me to go with you?

Sally: That’s okay. I think he just wants a brief one-on-one.

Chloe: You’ve been doing a lot of one-on-one meetings with nick lately.

Sally: He’s a good boss. He just wants us to succeed.

Chloe: Yeah, well, that’s — that’s great, because we really do need him on our side. The last thing we need is any more conflict. Just feels good just to focus on the work.

Nick: [ Knocks on door ] Glad I caught you. Did you get my text? Can I talk to you for a second?

Billy: Alright, remember what your coach said? You got to dribble with both feet. Find an opening. Go — oh. Oh-ho! Look at him. Look at him. He’s getting better.

[ Sighs ]

Victoria: You know, there’s really no way to prepare for this, but he had a good night’s rest, and he had a big breakfast.

Billy: He always eats a big breakfast.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] I can’t tell you how many times I wanted to grab ahold of them this morning and tell them how much I love him, but I knew he would just roll his eyes at me.

Billy: You know, you may feel like he’s outgrowing your love, but he’s not. He never will.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Thank you.

Billy: What do you think? You ready?

Victoria: Just let me watch him just for another minute.

[ Breathes deeply ] I tried to ground myself. I knew eventually this day was going to come, but, honestly, I’ve had years to prepare for it emotionally, and still it’S…

[ Sighs ]

Billy: It’s been a long road to get here, you know, a journey that started before he was even born. We wanted a family so badly, and I made a lot of mistakes out of desperation, things that I did wrong in that time.

Victoria: Don’t have to go there, billy. It’s okay.

Billy: All I’m saying is that I have regrets, but him being our son, coming into our life when he did, that is definitely not one of them. He’s such a sweet, innocent kid. He’s been a joy from the moment he came to us.

Victoria: He’s the greatest& joy of my life.

[ Sighs ]

Billy: Remember how he used to smile in this bed, in this little crib, sleeping?

Victoria: Yes, he was the happiest baby ever.

[ Sniffles ]

Billy: Yeah. All those bedtime stories, he would just…

Victoria: Oh, god.

Billy: …Get swallowed up in all of it long after katie fell asleep.

Victoria: Yeah, I didn’t think you were ever going to get out of there until morning sometimes.

Billy: Oh, I could’ve read to him all day. Some of my favorite memories.

Victoria: [ Sighs ]

Billy: [ Sighs ] I just can’t believe that sweet little kid is so grown-up.

Victoria: Yeah.

Billy: You know, I got to say, whatever was going on between us all of that time, he had a very loving, stable home. You deserve most of the credit for that.

Victoria: You were a wonderful father. And you will continue to be.

Billy: And you will always be his mother. Forever.

Victoria: Thanks.

[ Sighs ]

Billy: What do you say? Is it time to let this be more of his life story than ours?

Victoria: Yeah. I’m ready. I’m ready.

Billy: Hey, buddy, come over here for a sec.

Victoria: Johnny, hey, honey…

Billy: Hey.

Victoria: …Come sit down. There’s something that we need to talk to you about. Music (I swear)

Chloe: It’s actually my fault that sally is running a bit late. We got super into our work, and now we’re just busy making things happen.

Nick: I love hearing that.

Chloe: So I’ll give you guys some privacy to talk.

Nick: Does she know about us?

Sally: I haven’t said a word to anyone.

Nick: Me neither.

Sally: Good. So you wanted to talk to me about something work-related?

Nick: Partly.

Sally: Is it something I should be concerned about?

Nick: No. It’s all good. I was wondering if you wanted to, uh, discuss it over dinner.

Sally: Can I check my schedule and get back to you? I have another meeting that I have to attend that I do not plan on missing or even being late for.

Nick: Yeah. Just let me know.

Sally: Will do.

Nick: [ Exhales sharply ]

Lily: Billy is behind us doing the ipo.

Devon: Yeah, but that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m asking, is he fully committed to chancellor-winters in general? Because it’s going to take everyone being at 100% to pull off this ipo.

Lily: Look, the family issue that he’s dealing with is very important, but he has recommitted himself to this job and everything it entails.

Devon: Are you trying to convince yourself or me? You can tell me the truth. What’s happening with him?

Lily: Well, I mean, I guess sometimes I feel like billy is pushing himself a little too hard to make this position work for him.

Devon: Okay.

Lily: You know, because when he talks about it, he talks about it in terms of supporting me, which I appreciate, but i think, to do this job, you know, with everything it entails, like the hard work and the long hours and the stress, you have to love it. And I know that he wants to love it, but I think you can’t really force something that isn’t there.

Nate: Hey, lily, devon.

Lily: Hi.

Nate: Let me introduce you to audra charles, chancellor-winters’ ipo miracle worker.

Audra: It’s nice to meet you.

Lily: Yeah, we’ve heard great things about you from jill.

Audra: I plan to live up to them.

Nate: Based on our earlier conversation, I have no doubt she will.

Chelsea: Nick?

Nick: Hey, chels.

Chelsea: Hi. I was looking for victoria.

Nick: Yeah, she’s out of the office right now. I’m sure she’s with billy and johnny. Vick told me everything about, you know, what’s going on with you guys.

Chelsea: Right. Sure. I bet. Yeah, I’m just trying to rein in my anticipation. That’s why I came here instead of, you know, calling billy. I didn’t want my name popping up on his phone at an inopportune time during a very delicate conversation.

Nick: Yeah, that’s the right move.

Chelsea: Yeah, just trying to give him some space.

Nick: Well, I’m sure you’re wondering how — how it went. It’s got you on edge, I bet.

Chelsea: I’m not going to lie, it’s a little nerve-racking, but my thoughts and my heart are entirely with johnny right now. I mean, this is big news, something that could impact a child’s life forever.

Billy: So your mom and I were just sitting here reminiscing about how lucky we are to have you in our life, and I know that we’ve talked about this in the past, but after mom had your brother reed, the doctor said she wasn’t able to have any more kids until we were very pleasantly surprised with your sister. But you, uh — you remember all that stuff, yeah?

Johnny: Uh, yeah. I’ve heard the story all my life. I grew in mom’s heart, not her stomach. I know.

Billy: I guess we’re just wondering if you have any questions about that?

Johnny: Not really.

Victoria: We just wonder if maybe you ever think about your birth mother.

Johnny: No.

Victoria: Because it’s okay if you do. It wouldn’t hurt our feelings at all. You have every right to wonder about it and to want to know about it. And, um… look, we feel that you’re at an age where it just — it might be the right time.

Billy: You know, the woman that gave us a chance to be a family, she lives here. She lives here in genoa city.

Victoria: You know her.

Johnny: What?

Victoria: Chelsea. Connor’s mom.

Johnny: [ Breathes deeply ] But we just saw her at the pool the other day. Were you all planning on telling me this? Behind my back?

Victoria: No, no, it’s not like that.

Johnny: Well, what’s it like, then? Because you asked me if i wondered about my birth mom, and I said no. You just — you told me anyways? Why? What’s really going on here? Is something going to change? Don’t mind me. I’m just the flu.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Lily: So great to put a face to the name.

Audra: Same here.

Lily: Yeah, so billy will be here later, but this is my brother and co-ceo devon hamilton.

Devon: Hello.

Audra: Your reputation precedes you.

Devon: I hope that’s a good thing.

Audra: That man who built hamilton-winters into what it is today? How could it not be? Nate has been singing your praises.

Lily: Oh, I didn’t know that you two knew each other so well.

Audra: We met by pure coincidence last night. I was at a local coffeehouse, and I recognized him from the media coverage of your launch party. Then he gallantly took me out to breakfast this morning to let me pick his brain a little.

Lily: Okay, great. Well, I’m glad you two are getting along and that you’re familiarizing yourself with the company, ’cause I think that’ll come in handy.

Nate: Does this mean…?

Lily: Yep, chancellor-winters is going public.

Nate: That’s exciting.

Audra: A smart decision, in my opinion.

Lily: Yeah, thank you. I think we’re all in agreement on that.

Devon: Yeah.

Lily: So let’s get down to business, yeah?

Audra: This is where it gets fun. Let me tell you why I’m here and what I can do for you. My purpose is to walk you through the ipo process from start to finish, offering advice and recommendations before, during, and after the actual offering. Yeah, there are a lot of things you just couldn’t know if you’ve never done this before.

Lily: Yeah, and we haven’t done it before, so can you be a little bit more specific?

Audra: Of course. So the first thing I’ll do is an ipo-readiness assessment. Assuming that goes well, I can offer project management services, technical accounting, and help with the sec reporting. There is a lot of paperwork to file, so we’ll put together a timeline that will keep us on track as far as what we need to do and what’s coming up next. I’ll oversee the drafting process and stay on top of the deadlines to make sure things go as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

Devon: Well, you sound like exactly what we need, somebody that has a lot of knowledge and experience in this area.

Audra: And I look forward to joining forces with you. This is clearly a team of all-stars, and working together, we’ll be unstoppable.

Lily: I love it. Your energy is infectious.

Audra: It’s rooted in data. But based on the research I’ve done so far, I am confident that this could be the most satisfying business move you will ever make.

Nate: You two definitely made the right decision.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Nothing is going to change. That’s not why we told you.

Billy: No, we just thought you should know. You’re getting older, you know?

Victoria: Other people know. It might come up at some point. We didn’t want you to hear it from anyone else, sweetie.

Johnny: Great, so everybody knows that my birth mother lives in town? You told me. Thanks. Now, I don’t want to talk about it ever again.

Billy: Johnny.

Nick: I’m sure this revelation will have a huge impact on johnny’s life, just like I know it’s going to have a huge impact on yours.

Chelsea: Thanks for understanding. And I’m not trying to stake a claim to johnny. I completely respect billy and victoria’s roles as his parents. They’ve done a wonderful job.

Nick: Vick is the best mom a kid could have.

Chelsea: I know in my heart i did the right thing giving johnny to them to raise. I know — I knew then I needed to take a step back so he could live a beautiful life, one that I couldn’t give him at the time. You know, he deserves to have an amazing family, a loving family, without all the baggage I had back then. I’m just hoping that johnny will understand I did what I did out of love.

Nick: Look, my nephew is an awesome kid. He is open-hearted and empathetic. That’s because of the way vick and billy raised him. He’s at a tricky age, but I know he’ll understand how much you care about him.

[ Cellphone vibrates ]

Chelsea: Excuse me. Oh, my god. It’s from billy. It’s done. Johnny finally knows who I really am.

[ Sighs ] Alright, the reason why your dishes

Lily: Well, that was very productive. Thank you for laying things out so clearly and objectively.

Devon: Yeah, we appreciate that, and we look forward to next time.

Audra: Do I take that to mean I’ve been officially hired?

Lily: Yeah. Right?

Devon: Yeah, I think so.

Lily: Yes, you have the job.

Audra: Great. I will get to work right away and circle back when it’s time for another meeting. I’m truly excited about this.

Lily: Good. Well, thank you.

Devon: Yeah, take care.

Lily: Jill’s instincts were spot on. She’s fantastic.

Devon: Yeah, I feel like we’re in really good hands. But we probably should have asked your opinion before we officially brought her on board. What’d you think?

Nate: I approve if you guys approve.

Devon: Yeah? I would assume you would have a stronger opinion since you got to know her before the official meeting.

Nate: I hope you’re not trying to start something when we’re finally in a good place again.

Devon: How’s that me trying to start anything? It was a compliment. You obviously made a good impression on her, which is great for our company.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] In that case, thanks.

Victoria: I’m sorry I missed the meeting. Things with johnny went longer than I thought.

Nick: Yeah, not a problem. I handled it. Everything okay?

Victoria: Honestly, I don’t know.

Nick: What happened?

Victoria: [ Sighs ] I’m not sure I’m ready to talk about it.

Nick: Yeah, I get it. Just so you know, chelsea came by here, very anxious for some news.

Victoria: Well, chelsea can wait. She’s not my priority. Right now, I just came by to pick up a few things so I can go home and spend some more time with johnny.

Nick: So it didn’t go well.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] It went worse than I expected.

Chelsea: How did johnny take the news? Does he have a lot of questions? I mean, I’m sure he does, but what I mean is —

Billy: Chelsea, um… he’s going to need some time to process the information.

Chelsea: Yeah, of course, but, I mean, what was his initial reaction? I’m assuming shock and surprise, but was he at least a little relieved to find out it was me? Because he knows me, you know, he’s comfortable with me.

Billy: Chelsea.

Chelsea: Don’t you think this is going to help him in the long run? Does he want to see me?

Billy: [ Sighs ] Look, um… we’re not going to push things with him.

Chelsea: Right, well, I’m just wondering of ways I can help the situation. You know, like when he gets to know me in this context, I’ll be here. I’ll be waiting.

Billy: I don’t think you’re hearing me. This news, it really threw him. You know, johnny’s a very happy kid, and he doesn’t want his world to change. And we’re not going to pressure him to do anything that he doesn’t want to do.

Chelsea: Well, I hate that it was so hard on him.

Billy: And the last thing we’re going to do is make it harder on him. To be honest [Sighs] It’s all catching me off guard, this immediate want to be a participant in his life. It’s not what we discussed when we talked about telling him the truth, and this was always about him. It should be about what’s best for johnny.

Chelsea: That’s what I want.

Billy: Except it seems like you want more.

Chelsea: I just want johnny to be okay. Everything else, um… everything else is just about what he — what he wants and what he can handle, so, um… okay, well, thanks for filling me in. I got to go.

Billy: [ Sighs ]

Why hide your skin

Adam: Hey. How you doing?

Chelsea: I’m fine, adam. You don’t need to worry about me.

Adam: I’m not worried. I just… I got a call from connor this morning. He said he scored two goals in his game last night?

Chelsea: Yeah. Yeah, he’s really coming into his own on that field.

Adam: Hey, I had a thought. Do you remember when you wanted to take connor to see anita? Maybe long term?

Chelsea: I obviously remember. I also remember your response.

Adam: Well, I’m still not in favor of that, but I was thinking that we could finally do that “something together as a family” thing, maybe take him to that amusement park he’s been begging us to go to.

Chelsea: You hate spinny rides.

Adam: Yeah, but I love my kid.

Chelsea: And you think we could be together for hours without being at each other’s throats?

Adam: Chelsea, of course we can. Okay? We’ll divide and conquer the park. You can do the spinny rides, and I will get wet on the log rides. It’ll be modern parenting at its finest.

Chelsea: I’ll talk to connor about it.

Adam: Well, no time like the present. Why don’t we do it together?

Chelsea: Because it’s not a good time for me, adam. I’m having a bad day. Why are you pushing this?

Adam: Just thought it might be fun.

Chelsea: You know, when i asked you if I could take connor away for a little while, you accused me of using my son to fix me. And, what, now you’re proposing this family outing, what, as a way to fix whatever’s wrong with me this week?

Adam: That is not what I’m doing at all.

Chelsea: Well, then maybe you’re trying to fill a hole in your own life. I would never use my son to make my life better. I just want to love him and take care of him. Why can’t anyone understand that?

Adam: Chelsea.

Nick: Vick, it doesn’t matter how old somebody is. Getting news like this can absolutely rock them. But kids are tougher than we give them credit for. Sometimes they can adapt to things better than adults can. I’m very confident johnny is going to understand this and maybe even someday make peace with it.

Victoria: I really hope you’re right, but I just can’t shake this awful feeling that I’ve made the wrong decision and that I’ve messed him up for the rest of his life.

Nick: You haven’T. Trust me, johnny is surrounded by people who love and care about him, including his uncle nick. You know, maybe — maybe we need to hang out, just go to the batting cages or maybe play some video games and absolutely not talk about this unless that’s what he wants to do.

Victoria: Well, I appreciate that. I do. And I may take you up on it, but I think that this is a much deeper issue, that it is not going to be easy for him to come to terms with.

Nick: Well, I’m here for whatever you need.

Victoria: Thank you.

[ Cellphone pings ] Who’s that?

Sally: [ Sighs ]

Devon: Hey, hey.

Lily: Hey.

Devon: Have you heard from billy?

Lily: Yeah, he’s on his way. He said he’s sorry for missing the meeting.

Devon: Are you ready to tell me what he’s really got going on, though?

Lily: Uh, I’m not really sure it’s my place.

Devon: I understand. There’ll be more meetings before the ipo. I’m sure he won’t miss them all.

Lily: No.

[ Cellphones ping ] Oh, wow. Audra sent over initial figures already.

Devon: It was really fast.

Lily: My god, it’s all really happening.

Devon: I know. It is. I’m feeling a lot better about my decision, too.

Lily: Yeah, me, too. And I couldn’t be more excited to be doing this side-by-side with you.

Devon: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: Just finalizing some dinner plans.

Victoria: Uh-huh. Okay.

[ Cellphone rings ] Oh, well, you’re off the hook for now, because I have to take this call.

Nick: You are a busy woman.

Victoria: [ Chuckles ] Hello?

Nate: Great news. It’s official. Chancellor-winters is going public. When and where can we meet to talk about taking our next big step.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Come on in. Oh, gosh. Want to start a fire, maybe? I’ll pour us a couple of brandies. Yeah, I think that’s a good idea. Thanks. Ohh. I guess consider it down payment. On what? I owe you a pair of shoes. Oh. Ce n’est rein.

Ce n’est pas rein. They were very nice shoes. Not to mention comfortable. Well, no mission is without its sacrifice. Yeah, but we failed. Oh, I don’t know. Lucy is still in victor’s clutches. By her own choice. But we got on the haunted star and off again undetected. We returned a stolen zodiac — “borrowed.”

Borrowed zodiac. But here we are, slightly damp, missing a shoe… but otherwise none the worse for wear. And we’re together. I’ll call that a win. Take it, ava. It’s yours.

[ Monitor beeping ] I don’t care if that envelope contains a cashier’s check for a million bucks. You can’t buy back my love or my trust, both of which you threw away when you chose to have sex with esme prince. It’s not money. I’m not trying to buy back your love. Like I said before, this is proof of just how much I love you. What is this? You might say… it’s my life. And as you can see… it is now in your hands. Mr. Scorpio. Can I get you a drink? A glass of white wine would be great. Thank you. Okay. What? We’re two minutes late. You already have your nose buried in your e-mails. I told you he needed a break. Speak for yourself, little brother, who’s been looking for brando’s killer since they got out of bed. You know, I’m thinking… this guy probably sharpened the hook on ava first. Can we agree that both scorpio brothers need a break? I need a break, too. And I’m not exactly squeamish, but can we talk about something else besides hooks? Of course. You know I can’t deny you anything. That’s better.

[ Sighs ] Okay. Now you’ve got your way. What are we gonna talk about? I can think of at least one topic for sure. Uh, hey, could I get a bottle of beer? Foreign or domestic? Domestic. Always domestic. Oh, and, also, could you make sure you have a bottle of champagne chilling for when my date arrives? She’s a bit more upscale than me. Ah, great. Him? What, is he stalking me now? You know, on second thought, y– hold the beer. And the bubbly. Terry, I just want to tell you I am officially off the clock. Wish me luck. From the looks of things, your luck is already improving. Thank you. I am going on another date with cody. Last time we saw each other was at the quartermaine picnic, and we all know how that ended. Tonight is a new night. Have a good time. Thank you! Oh, when were those delivered? Ooh. More importantly, who are they for? “Lovely terry, until we meet again.” Since when did you get a secret admirer? It’s not a secret. His name’s yuri. And I met him at the quartermaine barbecue… hm! …Which just goes to show you that night wasn’t a complete disaster. I need you! Oh, it’s too late. I’m off the clock. No. Not you, britt. Can we talk? It’s important. If brando was specifically targeted, we need to figure out why. We need to talk to people that he worked with. Maybe they know if he was in a dispute with someone. Anything that will give us a clue as to who brando’s killer is. I see. “We’re” following clues now? Listen, if this is any kind of an inconvenience for you, I’m perfectly capable of following up on my own. What, and cut me out of what might be an important article? Not a chance. When do we start? Now.

[ Fire crackling ] Good to get out of these damp clothes. Sorry I didn’t have a robe for you, but… do you want a blanket? No, no. It’s not necessary. I ran out of brandy. So…scotch. Is it okay? Always. Especially when it’s that good. Yeah.

[ Glasses clink ] How are you? Well, I think I’m dreaming because… you are even more beautiful by firelight. Thank you. That wasn’t what I was asking. In the space of two years, you’ve learned that you were raised to believe a lie, that helena was your mother and victor is your father. And now charlotte, the one person that you love without reservation, has been taken from you… as leverage. If you want to maintain that everything’s fine and you’re handling it, I won’t press. But I’ve been where you are. Or close enough. Was keeping a cool facade when my life was literally blowing up in flames… and I wanted to scream and cry. But I was too afraid because if I started, I didn’t think I would know how to stop. And then if I was broken, truly broken, what would happen to my child? Or I could just be projecting all of that. Sometimes I think my fear for my daughter and my rage at victor cassadine is the only thing keeping me sane. Is he following us now? He’s probably wondering the same thing about us. Are we following him? You know, I have not the slightest idea what you’re talking about, and, um… who’s this dude at the bar? He’s new in town. As a kid, he went to camp with dante. He works at the quartermaine stables now. Come on, mac. Robert’s gonna find out sooner or later. What’s robert gonna find out? His name is cody bell. Bell. That name was on a list of 50 people at the quartermaines’ at the time that ava was attacked. That’s not all that he is. Finn, you seem more serious than usual. I… did you identify the venom that killed brando corbin? Britt, aren’t you off the clock and don’t you have a date waiting for you? Yeah. Don’t let us keep you.

[ Cellphone rings ] Cody, I was just on my way to meet you. Cody:

Glad I caught you, then. I just thought maybe we can try something different. Maybe go to meet up at the pc lanes, go bowling? Excuse me? You know, drink a couple beers, roll a few frames. What’s your size? I’ll rent you a pair of rental shoes. I am in a dress and heels. I’m not going bowling. We either stick to the plan and meet at the metro court, or I’m going home. Alone. Alright. Yeah. Metro court it is. See you soon. Change of plans? No. Bye. Bye!

[ Sighs ] Is britt right? Did you want to talk to me about the toxicology report? I’ve identified the venom. I’m waiting on a supply of the serum to treat that venom so we can have it here on hand just in case. Well, if that’s all settled, then why did you not — oh. This is about elizabeth, isn’t it? Wait. Wait, wait. Why is the door open? Oh, brando’s assistant is probably still working. I don’t know. With all the crime that’s been going on around here, I don’t — I don’t have a good feeling about this. It’s just a garage. Let’s go inside.

[ Gasps ] Oh, my god. What the hell?!

Charlotte’s only in this world because of me. And I know every parent gets to say that, but our case is a little different. Helena made an embryo. And it was my call to go with a gestation host. I chose the surrogate. I’m solely responsible for her being alive. And I think that may have been the most selfish thing I’ve ever done. Because I knew the laws I’d broken, the crimes I’d committed. I wronged people. I made so many enemies. I could hide her all I want, but she’s always got a target on her. You think if you had to do it over, you’d make a different choice? No, no, of course not. I feel the same about robin. Apart from the fact that she’s spectacular, I just couldn’t imagine a world without her. Until I became a mother, I just lived my life for myself. And as you know… that led to a series of terrible decisions. I basically just sold my soul to the highest bidder. Robin changed that. Robin just changed my entire perspective. I wanted to be a better person for her. The way you want to be better for charlotte. The only difference is you’ve succeeded. My case is still very much in doubt. Go on. Read it. “I, nikolas cassadine, 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.” You know, you’d think the way that mac keeps looking at this guy, he had something on our mr. Bell. Forget about it, robert. I questioned him about the night at the picnic. He has an alibi. Then why so interested? Britt westbourne. Wasn’t she with cody the night of ava’s attack? Since when does britt westbourne qualify as a legitimate alibi? Look. [ Sighs ] You’ve had a crack at this dude. Maybe I should go over there and rattle his tree a little. -Mr. Cody bell. -Hi. I am definitely ready for that champagne cocktail. Are you sure? You know, I thought maybe we’d relocate to that cool new burger joint off the highway. First it was bowling, and now it’s a burger joint?

[ Scoffs ] Okay. If you don’t want to go on a date with me, just say no. No, no. Britt, it’s not you. It’s, um — it’s them. The scorpio brothers? Chief of detectives has a brother? Law enforcement runs in the family. Robert’s the D.A.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Cellphone chimes ] -Robert, wait. -Mac, what is it? There’s been another attack. The details are minimal. -Anything to do with a hook? -No. Then we don’t know if it’s tied to brando or ava. It could be totally unrelated. It happened at brando corbin’s garage. Sonny’s cousin was the second victim. Yeah, we could be looking at victim number three. Look, I need to take felicia home and then get to the scene. No, no, no, no. That’s okay. I’ll take a ride share. You go ahead and go. And I’m going to the hospital. I want to be there when the victim comes in. I know you’ve been worried about elizabeth, you know, but she’s finally trying to understand the root cause of all the things she’s been experiencing — the memory loss, the blackouts, all of it. Thank you for telling me that. That’s a relief to hear. Ever since biz found us talking about her, it’s like a wall went up between me and my best friend. I know, but with kevin’s help, she’s — she’s finally remembering some things from her past that she’s been repressing for years. About her family? I think so. I know better than to push for more. I won’t ask you to betray her confidence. Thanks. I’m just really glad that as biz goes looking into her past, she won’t be going alone. Oh, my god! That’s diane! Whoever you are, step back from diane now. What? No, no. I-I didn’t do this. I swear. I came in, and I found her like this. Okay? I’m trying to help her. We have to stop the bleeding. You heard me. Step back and keep your hands where I can see them! Alexis, call 911. I already called 911. The paramedics are en route. Who are you? I work for sonny corinthos. Okay? She’s his lawyer. You gonna help her or not? Please! I can barely feel a pulse. We need to slow the bleeding.

[ Glasses clink ] Do you believe the end justifies the means? Well… I’m not supposed to. But you do, don’t you? Yeah. On occasion, yeah. I think it’s my guiding principle. Whatever the desired outcome, it’s worth whatever I have to do to get it. I want to be a better man for charlotte. But what I want more than anything… is to keep her safe. And if that means I have to murder my own father… so be it. Is this a disclaimer? Because I-I do know who I’m dealing with. I don’t have any illusions about who you are, valentin. I enjoyed our evening together on the haunted star. But I could make the argument it was a missed opportunity. I had victor off guard. I could have cut his throat. Why didn’t you? Well, for one, there would be a fail-safe in place. Victor lives, charlotte lives. But victor dies.. yeah. You could not take that chance. But there was another reason I couldn’t have killed my father tonight. You. So you wrote a letter where you claimed you killed esme, something we both know isn’t true. Yeah, the truth is that esme accidentally fell off the parapet and drowned in the water. And that accident happened after you found out that I slept with her. No jury would ever believe that that was actually an accident. And I made that confession to protect you. Do you think this is gonna work? Do you really think that this… melodramatic gesture made at the 11th hour is gonna change how I feel about you? I mean, this so-called confession is actually just a reminder that you did indeed have sex with your son’s girlfriend. And should it ever be made public, well, the whole world would know about that. To expect me to see this as something heroic is just…delusional. You know, I can do a lot of things, ava… but I don’t have a time machine. And I can’t undo the errors of my judgment. Well, that’s a polite euphemism for adultery. The only thing I can do… is to make sure that you don’t suffer the consequences. Make sure that I don’t suffer? Look at me. I’m suffering every day. I suffer all the time. And I’m not talking about a wound from a hook. I’m talking about the pain that I feel because of how — of how you hurt me. The betrayal. The loss of self-esteem. Just the sheer humiliation that I ever bought into your promises of love and fidelity. That stuff, that — those wounds are never gonna heal. If nothing else, I can protect you. From what esme can do to you, even from beyond the grave. And, sure, my confession might not mean anything to you today, but keep it. Put it in a safe deposit box and consider my life on deposit, as well. And if the day ever comes that you need to withdraw it, then you — alright. I’ll keep it. You will? Uh-huh. Under lock and key. But I’m gonna need more than a piece of paper, nikolas. I’m gonna need much more. You saw mac and robert rush out of here. Do you feel better now that they’re gone? Not really. Why not?

[ Chuckles ] Why do you break out in hives at the mere mention of the scorpio name?

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, well… let’s just say that, uh, me and law enforcement don’t make a good match. Ooh, let me guess. You are against it? Uh, no. No, no, no. They just tend to be against me and people like me who don’t always play by the rules. Thought that was something we had in common. Ohh. No. I’m — I’m reformed. Are you? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I made a deal, got a clean slate, and I’m sticking to it. This was just delicious. Thank you. May I have a glass of water, please? Well, hello. Another date night. Oh, I’m really glad that the quartermaine picnic didn’t scare you two off. Yeah, well, your husband isn’t gonna scare me off, either. You know? I’m tired of him looking at me like I’m hiding some hook up my sleeve. And now apparently I have to deal with his brother, who’s the D.A.? You know, is that the locals’ idea of an investigation? “There’s a killer running around, so, hey, let’s just blame the newest guy in town.” Mac is just doing his job. I mean, if you don’t have anything to hide, there’s absolutely nothing to worry about. Cody, why don’t we go get that table? Why does it feel like your husband’s investigating me for personal reasons? What makes you say that? I don’t know. You tell me. Is it just because he knew my mom? Man: Lift. Okay.

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Radio chatter ] Alexis, catch me up. Alexis! I-it’s diane, mac. Diane miller? She’s hanging on, but just barely. You. Again? No, no. He was the first one to find diane. He called 911. If it weren’t for him, she’d be dead now. You want to tell me what you were doing here in the first place? I need to go to the hospital with diane. I need to be with my friend. Is it alright if we leave? You know, we’ll answer any questions you may have. But just for the record, from what we saw, this young man did everything he could to save diane’s life. Of course. Go ahead. But we’re gonna want to question both of you. Thank you. I know you work for sonny. He’s a good man. You listen to him and you tell him the truth. Alexis just gave you some good advice. Question is, are you going to take it?

Do you think I’d have a problem with you killing victor? I don’t know. Maybe, maybe not. You’d have a problem with my killing your good friend lucy. Well, yeah. Which I would have to do. I couldn’t leave a witness. I’d be a witness. Well, there is that. Hm. ‘Cause I’d be asking you to stay quiet about the death of your friend. And I know you wouldn’t do that. So I’d have to kill you, too. Could you? Alright. What more can I do to prove myself to you? If esme’s disappearance is ever investigated by the police, my confession — it proves your innocence and my guilt. Well, nikolas, you have a history of making grand declarations that come to nothin’. No, I need — I need proof that can’t be faked or forged. Fine. What else do you want me to do? If I’m able, I’ll do it. What are you doing? Here’s what’s gonna happen. You’re gonna take your little confession… and you’re gonna look into the camera and you’re gonna read every single incriminating word.

[ Beep ] Action. Like we told you, when we met you the night of the quartermaine party, back in the day, mac and I ran in the same circles with dominique. The person you really need to talk to is mac. He knew your mother much better than I did. Well, I already talked with scott baldwin, and he was married to my mother, so, arguably, he knew her better than anyone. And he claims that she never said anything about me. Yeah, my champagne’s getting flat. I’m so sorry. I am ruining your date. Yeah, you kind of are. Okay, I’ll let you get on with it. But, you know, you really should talk to mac. Why would I make it easy for him? Easy for him? Your husband’s been asking a lot of questions about me, even though I’m relatively new to port charles and I never even met ava jerome or the other victim. Is he laying the groundwork to frame me? Well, now, that’s not fair. You don’t know mac. Oh, but it’s fair for him to assume to know me? Well, like I said, h-he and dominique were close once. Oh, yeah? How close? If you knew the garage was closed because the owner was murdered and his body was lying in a funeral home, why did you just happen by? I didn’t say that. You did. Damn it. I’m trying to help you! Your fingerprints are all over the place. I mean, you got diane miller’s blood on your hands, literally. You also showed up right after ava jerome was attacked. And to top it all off, you were seen at charlie’s shortly before brando corbin was attacked in the alley outside the pub. So either you’ve got the worst timing in the world or you know a hell of a lot more than you’re saying. My boss always told me not to talk to cops without a lawyer present, so… am I under arrest? I am questioning you. You either answer me here and now or down at the pcpd. What’s it gonna be? Yeah. Got it. Been a report of another stabbing? Paramedics are bringing her in now. Paramedic: Bp is 70 over 40. Tachycardic and lost a lot of blood. Initiate massive protocol here. I need two units in her and run me a center line. Get a dic panel, a cmp… hey. How’d you — how’d you find out about diane so quickly? Um, we were going to brando’s garage to speak with his assistant. We were trying to get information about why brando might have been targeted by the attacker, and that’s when we found diane on the ground. Brando corbin. Diane miller. Ava jerome. They’ve all got one thing in common. Sonny corinthos.

Yeah. I’d kill you. If I had to to save charlotte, just as you would kill me to save robin. Yeah. I would. I’d miss you, though. But anything short of that… I wouldn’t harm a hair on your head. I would protect you as fiercely as I would myself. Because I’ve loved you since I first saw you. An insane, crushing love. Never stood a chance. But look at us. On the floor of your townhouse. I’m baring my soul in front of your fire. And the look in your eyes doesn’t look like pity. It’s not.

[ Monitor beeping ] 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. The means? My own two hands, by pushing her off of the parapet at wyndemere, my family’s estate on spoon island. The motive? Revenge. Justice. Guilt. You take your pick. Esme prince was my son spencer’s girlfriend, and I had sex with her. And to be very clear, it was consensual. And if anything, esme initiated things. But I shouldn’t have given in to my worst instincts. And my behavior was indefensible. However, esme used that lack of judgment to destroy my marriage. Not only that, she used it to destroy the relationship with my son. Any chance of reconciling things with spencer was ruined. In effect, esme destroyed my life. And when she taunted me on the turret, in a fit of rage, I grabbed her and I pushed her to her death. Honestly, my only regret was not doing it sooner to spare the ones that I love the pain that I caused. This I solemnly swear. Cut. Did you get all that? I think I have to go. Um, could I have my check, please? And, um, I interrupted britt and cody’s date. Would you put their drinks on my tab? Oh, that’s very sweet, felicia. Of course. Oh, no. No. I don’t want your charity. Okay? If you want to give me something, then tell me what you and your husband are hiding from me, especially if it’s about my birth mother. Cody, I understand your frustration and I understand the questions that you want answered. This just isn’t my story to tell. If you want answers, you have to talk to mac. I mean, it’s not like it’s some state secret. Okay, then. If it’s no big deal, why can’t you just tell me now? Why do I have to hear it from your husband? Um, here. This is mac’s personal cellphone number. However, before you make that call, you need to ask yourself if you really want to know the truth. Well, this date got way more intense than I expected. Terry: Diane’s wounds appear similar to the ones found on ava jerome and brando corbin. Dr. Dempsey has to operate immediately. She looks so helpless. Thank you. If diane was stabbed with a hook tipped in the same venom that killed brando, we don’t have much time. Okay.

What’s wrong? I’ve wanted you for years. I don’t want to rush this. We can go slow next time. Well, I appreciate you putting your words into action. But if you think I’m gonna fall back into your arms, you — you ought to think again. What are you smiling at? I just rejected you. Oh, yeah, you — you rejected me…

tonight. But I can see that I made progress. So, no… you won’t be back in my arms this time, but you will be in the future. That’s enough for me. I’m leaving you with the recording and this letter. I’m literally leaving you with my life in your hands. One more thing. It’s a chocolate truffle for you. Britt: Well. [ Sighs ] Whether you’re willing to admit it or not, this date pretty much feels over to me. I’m sorry, britt. I really didn’t want tonight to go like this. I believe you. Dominique is your biological mother. Of course you’re gonna have a million questions about her. I understand that. And I’m guessing if felicia is that eager for you to talk to mac that it’s for good reason. So why don’t the two of us quit while we’re ahead?

[ Chuckles ]

[ Smooches ] Bye. Hey, you want this phone number, buddy? Yeah. Yeah, I want it. Okay. Back to you, dex. You gonna talk now or talk later? You see an attorney here? No attorney, no talk. Well, then, you leave me no choice. Officer, we’re gonna be taking mr. Heller down to the station. -Yes, sir. -But you know — you know what? I don’t think cuffs are necessary. Right, dex? I’m not gonna talk. But, no, I’m not gonna resist going to the station. That’s the smartest thing you’ve said all night. -Let’s go. -I’m going. If there’s any change in diane’s condition, I want to know right away. You got it, robert. How are you doing? You want me to call one of your girls? No. Would that make you feel better? No, because then I’d have to tell them what happened to diane, and I’m not ready to do that. I understand that, but… I was just thinking about h-how long I’ve known diane. It feels like forever. You know, she’s the one person who has been there for me for everything. And if diane lives, then you and I and dex made all the difference. Yeah. That’s not good enough. Alexis, you’re not a doctor. There’s nothing more you can do here. I’m not talking about here. I’m talking about the paper. It’s time to have a conversation with the killer. Are you just gonna stand there or are you going to double-check my spelling? Okay. Yeah. I’ll talk to you soon. I came straight from the lab. These are the test results you asked for. Diane’s system’s tainted with the same substance that killed brando. Mm-hmm.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Finn, what is it? Confirmation the anti-venom just arrived. I have to prep an injection. If there’s a chance of saving diane, I’m taking it. Ooh, ooh-ooh call me a fool, I never learn touch the fire just to feel the burn but I don’t, but I don’t, but I don’t I don’t feel the pain I’ve just touched the fire again old friends like we’re old friends ohh I’ll run right towards the blaze and I’ll embrace the flame get lost in the blaze the smoke and haze

Jason, I so right, your home , because I have the most wonderful news. Oh, I’m always up for that. Nancy Lyer getting married. Really? Mm-hmm. when tonight, And it’s all because of me. . I never told you, but my Nancy’s married to crash and burn. I gave her little pep, Anna a makeover and I got her on a dating app where I, um, Thank you very much.

Found the sexy stud, who is now her fiance. Mm-hmm. . So she met Clyde. Yes. Isn’t that a coincidence? Uh, Justin, I am just so thrilled for Nancy. I, she was just so crushed when she found out that Craig was cheating on her with a man. I swear now she’s found someone will make her happy for the rest of her life.

So take that Craig Wesley.

Dad, please, can you just talk to her? She will not listen to me. You think she’s gonna listen to me? The guy who broke her heart, Pray through hell. Who do you think’s gonna happen when she becomes Mrs. Clyde Weston Dad? She’s making the biggest mistake of her life. Honey, I understand your concerns, but can put me in the middle of this.

It’s not my place to tell your mom who she should or shouldn’t. Sorry, I just want to, I just talked to Chloe and she and Brady and Craig are gonna meet us at City Hall. Great. That we’re all set. Oh God. I thought my life was over and, and you came along, gave me hope. I love you, Claire, and I can’t wait to be your.

I can’t believe it. Flight to alibis. Bogus. There’s no doubt that he docked the surveillance footage by the docks. Well, which we would never known. Were not for you. Good job, Detective Hunter. Thanks. But you were the one who told me to go over everything again. I mean, that’s why I was able to see. That’s timestamp having altered.

It looks like Chad was right about Leo being framed for Abigail’s murder. Who’s just wrong about who was doing it? Yeah. He thought it was Craig Wesley. But it was glide. We need to issue an arrest warrant on it. We need to do it fast, but by the book. I do assure Chad that his wife’s killer is not gonna slip through our hands again.

What are you doing here?

Like sands through the hour glass. So are the days of our lives.

Dad, can you please go talk to her? Tell her she cannot go through with this wedding. Chloe, maybe. Maybe we should take a minute. We don’t have a minute. We’re due at city hall. We gotta do this now. Oh, you’re not hearing me. Well, you weren’t hearing us before. Remember when we were begging you to see that Leo is a conning lying con artist.

What if we’d stop trying and just said, Forget it. Throw our hands up in the air. You would be broke and married to a bigamist. And I am grateful that you and Brady and everyone who cared about me tried to tell me the truth at the time, but I didn’t wanna listen then. Well, I know. And we did it because we love you and I know that you love mom.

So please, you need to go talk some sense into her. Oh, your mom’s made her choice. And whether we like it or not, kinds. He’s paid his debt to society and from what I can tell, he’s staying on that side of the law.

This marriage is a bit sudden. No. Huh? Well, you find the one. Why? Wait. Huh? You don’t agree? No. In this case, I definitely do not agree. And Bonnie, how can you be excited about Nancy or anyone else marrying a criminal like Clyde Weston? Here’s a rap sheet. As long as my arm, and I believe that he had son stabbed.

Oh, Leo stabbed son. Unless you think he and Clyde were in cahoots. No, I’m talking about an incident that happened several years. It was Clyde’s way of sending Victor a message during a business view that they were having, but no one was ever able to prove that it was him. Well, then maybe he wasn’t involved.

Oh, he was involved. Are you sure? I’m sure I Now he’s involved with Nancy. Sorry to rain on your parade, but this wedding is nothing to Celebr.

Back at your sweetheart. Can’t wait to be your lawfully wooded husband. I just get chills here. You say that, I don’t know if it was fate or good fortune or divine providence, but I’m one lucky man to have you in my life. You wore my miracle. Oh God, it’s true. You know, I got that dating nap. I didn’t think a jail bird like me stood a snowballs chance in hell of meeting anybody, which let a woman like you wanna marry me.

But you took a chance on me and I’m forever grateful. Yeah, I’m just so glad I did. Every day keeps going better and better. This is the best one yet, is our wedding day. Oh, I gotta get a move on. I’ve gotta go make myself beautiful. You already are. Oh, I will see you soon. Right. Bye Bye.

I just came by to pick something up. Another stuffed Mo Charlotte. Oh, something else. And now I have it, so I have to go. Are you alright? Get outta my way. Can you at least tell me if there’s any news on Leo? Are yours innocent? What do you mean? Believe wasn’t the one who killed my wife. It was Clyde Weston.

And now I’m gonna make Hampshire that he pays

well, good evening, their counselor. Where are you off to in such a hurry. None of your business. Well, before you go, tell me how’s your client doing? You know my old buddy partner in crime, EJ Deira, As far as I know, he’s fine. Why do you ask? No reason? You give him my best will you? Don’t worry. I’m gonna hurry myself going to the chapel.

Gonna get married. What? . Well, City Hall, Ashley, your friend Chloe from Mom not getting hitched now. You actually surprise counselor isn’t not the way the criminal justice system is supposed to work. I do my time. I get a second chance. My second chance comes tonight.

Slide. Weston is a career criminal. Who’s to say he didn’t get outta prison and just pick up right where he left off? He’s making honest Living at the pub. Yeah, right. He’s probably dealing drugs outta that place. Oh, at Roman Brady’s. The former police commissioner who gave him a job when no one else would.

I don’t think so. Why are you being so easy on him? Dad, Clyde is a psycho who abused his own children and their mother. What if he does that to mom? Chloe? What? He traumatized Ben so badly. He turned him into a psychopath, a serial killer. Chloe. That was a long time ago. Look, I don’t think this guy’s good for your mom.

I told him, so when I first met him, the side would I. The mom’s made a choice and, and Clyde has shown no signs of going back to the other side. So we gotta be fair. We can’t judge you. So what we just let mom take this ridiculous chance with this guy, this guy that she barely knows. I mean, come on Dad.

Even if Clyde was a perfectly lovely, upstanding citizen with no rap sheet, isn’t it too soon for her to be marrying? Sweetheart. Mother is very happy right now. I don’t wanna be the one to deprive her because I’m being negative. Look, all we have to do, be positive. Show her our support. Okay,

Alex, Alex. Calm down. I will talk to son and try to smooth things over. Yes, I promise I’ll call him right now. What was that about? Alex and Sonny got into a big fight over Titan. Okay. So I have to call Sonny and see if I can sort this out.

Mommy. Nancy Henderson let me in. I hope it’s okay. Well, yes, of course. Aren’t you getting married tonight? Oh, but nothing in my class at works. It’s too late to go shopping. Will you please help me? Oh, honey, of course. How much time do we have? Oh, not much. Well, I just have to work my body magic that much faster,

And before you know it, I’ll have you transformed into the most beautiful bride that ever lived. All right. So just spin around. Let’s get to it. Okay? Okay. Yeah, it’s Rafe. Listen, I just wanna give you a heads up. Claude Wesson’s alibi for Abigail’s murder fell apart. The surveillance footage from the docks was tampered with.

Uh, we just got the arrest warrant and, uh, Now we’re gonna go pick him up. So, uh, I’ll be in touch. Okay? Now all we have to do is find him.

You should warn me that Clyde West didn’t threatened our family. Do you know I’ll never stop being sorry. And forgive me for asking, but doesn’t Clyde have an alibi for that night? I don’t answer your question. Chad, please tell me what happened with Clyde. I want to help

the marriage falls apart. We’ll be there for her. Okay? Right now, I think we owe your mother all the support we can. We gotta be positive and optimistic. Well, I can’t do that. Not if she’s marrying that thug. Come on, Brady. Help me convince him that we have to get my mom to reconsider her. Chloe. Chloe, Look at me sweetie.

I’m sorry. I think your father is right on this one. What? Listen, I hear everything you’re. And I too wish that your mother was making a different decision about Marion Clyde, but it is her decision to make, We have to stay out of it. So unless you plan on being a nohow, maybe we should get ready for a wedding.

Come and as sweetheart, let’s see what we got here.

So I’ve never seen you look more beautiful. Oh,

what’s this? Every bride serves a Okay. And I want you to see it. I’ve had it wrapped in. And the outfit you’re wearing, you borrowed from me and it happens to be new. Also, a necklace you borrowed and that I’ve let you is vintage, so you’ve got all your bridal bases covered. My hair. I’m so touched, buddy.

Thank you. Thank you so much. You know, our, our, our wedding is gonna be very small. Just family. But I would love it if you and and Justin would come.

Oh, my Justin check out our Boshing bride. Is that she fors all because of Bonnie. Oh, I guess that phone call didn’t go so well with Sunny. Um, are things that bad with him and Alex, this isn’t about Alex. What is it about? I don’t know how to say this except to just say it. Clyde was the one who stabbed son.

Oh God. What? Justin, Why would you lay that old news on Nancy on a wedding date? Oh my God. That’s something that happened so long ago. Victor and Clyde had a business wobble. Vic claimed that Clyde sent a message by stabbing son, Bonnie, and watch what? I’m not talking about that. Talking about the stabbing that just happened, the one that landed my son in the hospital.

No, no, Leo did that. Turns out he didn’t. Son just told me that the one who attacked him is Clyde West.

Please chair, call me back as soon as. This. I really do want to help. Well, what are you doing here? Well, I just had a run in with Clyde Weston. Are you alright? Yeah, I’m fine. But I thought you should know since he asked about you in a way that was very unsettling. Where was this? It was in the square. Do you know he’s marrying Chloe’s mom tonight?

Oh my God. I know. It’s horrifying. We can’t let Nancy marry a guy who, who, who put a hit on you and left you to die, and that’s not all he did. According to Chad Clyde’s, also the one who murdered Abigail.

What are you talking about? Clyde did not stab anyone. Yes, Sonny was stabbed from behind. He didn’t see who did it. He didn’t. He only knew that his attacker smelled of vanilla. I guess it was vanilla scented cologne lately. I mean, do you know how many people wear that? That doesn’t prove to any. This afternoon, he also remembered seeing Clyde’s reflection in a picture frame hanging on the wall in his office.

Sonny’s in the hospital being p full of drugs. You can’t trust anything he says. And besides, why would Clyde go after Sonny? Because of some old grudge with with Victor. That’s not why he did it. Son is convinced that Clyde was trying to. Leo Stark. That is even more ridiculous. Leo is out for revenge. He has this hit list, and first on the list was Abigail and then Sunny.

Yes. But after Abigail was murdered, the cops turned Leo loose. They cleared him, so Clyde had to find a way to implicate him again. Seal the deal, if you will. You’re not saying what I think you’re saying. Clyde that he just stab at my son. He also murdered Abigail Damara.

But I thought Clyde had an alibi. So did I. I asked Chad to tell me what it changed, but he just stormed off. He’s in a bad way Bell. I’m really worried about him. Okay. Maybe we should call the police. How would that. I’m gonna handle Clyde, myself.

Cloud’s not here. Dishwasher said he took the night off. Should we check his girlfriend’s house? No, he’s not there either. He’s getting married. Married? Yeah. City hall. Well, let’s go. Yep.

Hey, what you doing? Every buddy? Don’t make a scene. I want you to pretend like everything is. And come with me. I’ll kill you right here, right now. Whoa. We hope Justin, you would be a hot shot attorney, but CDE is innocent. He has an air tight alibi for the night that Abigail was killed, he was down at the doc’s fishing.

There’s a video to prove it. Maybe it would help if you spoke directly with Sonny. Sonny is confused. I mean, and I’m sorry about that. And I’m sorry for everything that he’s been through, but I have a wedding that I need to get to. Bonnie, I, um, I wanna thank you for everything that you’ve done for me, Nancy.

Nancy, listen, I strongly advise you to rethink this wedding. No. Stop trying to ruin this for me. Crye is innocent and he loves. And I am getting married today. Please, this is a big step. So before you take it, just talk to my son. No, and stop it. Right. This one, I am not listening to anymore of this insanity.

I am getting married today and nothing, nothing you can say or do is going to stop me.

I wanna thank you for everything you’ve done for me, but given how your husband feels about my fiance, I don’t think it’s a good idea that you come to my wedding. Oh,

Nancy’s, right? Of course. It’s just right. I mean, CL would never set up anyone. You don’t really believe that? I believe in innocent until perfect. Guilty. I thought you did. Sunny says he saw fly in a reflection. And honey, Nancy’s right son’s on a lot of painkillers. I’m telling you, I saw elephants and pink tutus when I was on those things.

I son could have made a mistake, honey. I don’t think so. You know what? If flights stabbed him before, it makes perfect sense that Sunny’s wine will go there. But honey doesn’t make it really. Hde Weston has done terrible things. So have I. And I know what it’s like to be unfairly judged about your past.

Honey, I was a rotten person, but I changed. Maybe Clyde’s changed too. For Nancy sake. I really hope you’re right.

All is everyone. Thought we were running late. uh, well this might be a, a good sign. Maybe mom changed her mind and canceled the wedding. Uh uh uh, she’s probably just taking some extra time. Getting ready or she wised up and ran. Chloe, we’re going to be supportive. Glad Weston isn’t even here. I mean, what’s keeping him?

Oh, that’s the perfect excuse to leave. We came here, the bride and groomer Mia, so we took off. We can’t do that. Why not? No one’s here. Not even the efficient. I am sure they’re on their way. Well, I gave ’em two more minutes than I’m out Chloe. I know how you feel about the situation, but we are not bailing on your mom.

This is her big day. She asked us to come look. Think I heard she believe she came through that door. We weren’t here. Hmm. And it’s probably her right now. Oh my. I can’t believe this. Did you, did you? Track me here to my ex-wife’s wedding. I, I told you at that interrogation I had nothing to do with Abigail or Sunny.

Wait, no you didn’t stab either one of ’em. You know who did well, we have reason to believe it was Clyde Weston. What doesn’t he have an alibi? Uh, fell apart. Yeah, the timestamp on the video footage that put him at the dock that night, it was altered. Oh my God. I mean, I knew Clyde was a bad guy, but is he?

He’s that bad. He stabbed Sunny and he killed Abigail that way. Oh my God. My mom’s gonna marry that guy. That’s why we’re here. We wanted to get to him before he walks down the aisle.

The hell we doing here, man, that headstone, look at it. I said look at it.

That was my wife, the mother of my children. I wanna know why you put her in the ground. You got the wrong guy man. I had nothing to do with it. I have an alibi, Frog xr. Rav told me that that footage was tampered with, why everyone, including the cops, knows that you were trying to cover your track. So why would you do that if you weren’t guilty?

I wanna know why. Why did you do it? Why did you slaughter? My wife start dog. She crying. Why did you wanna send a message to my brother? Is that why you targeted Abigail? Huh? To warn him against talking about what you did to him? No, it wasn’t like that at all. Then what was it like?

Tell me the truth. I’m telling you the truth.

Abi

man. She wouldn’t know what I meant to kill.

Who was

start talking? He was bail.

Bales the one hour’s half.

What do you mean you’re gonna handle Clyde? What are you planning to do? What I should have done a long time ago. I should have put that animal down the minute I remembered he was the one who had me shut. Okay, EJ take. I’ve lost everything because of him. This ends now. No more.

What’s in there? My father’s God. No ej, I am not gonna let you kill Clyde. If you do that, you’re gonna lose everything all over again. You will end up behind bars for the rest of your life. Abigail is dead because of me, because I kept quiet about what I knew. I brought this help on my family, and now I intend to make things right.

No, ej, you can’t do this. What the hell? What? The God it’s gone.

Bonnie, I love that you have such a forgiving heart, but not everyone is able to turn their life around like you did.

I was able to turn my life around because I had the love of a good man. And now Clyde has the love of a good woman. Can’t you least try to give him the benefit of the,

Sonny was pretty sure about what happened, but Okay, I will talk to him. Thank you. You okay? I’m just worried about Nancy. How the world is she gonna handle getting her heart broken all over again? Well, she’ll just have to lean on the people who care about her wonderful friends like you.

Well, they were supposed to be here by now. What if Clyde found out that the cops are after him and kidnapped my mom and. Oh my God. We have to find them. Hi. Oh, thank God they got Mom. Are you okay? I’m fine. What’s going on? Where’s Clyde? We don’t know. We’re actually trying to find him. You don’t know where he is?

No, I don’t. But I know why you’re hunting him down. It’s because of what son Kka said. Justin told me all about it. Yeah, we just need to find him because he wears vanilla scented cologne. And that son saw his reflection. Huh? Clyde is not the one that stabbed son. His reflection son says that he saw Clyde’s reflection in a picture frame hanging on the wall in.

Wait, he saw a flight in his office? No, he was hallucinating from all the drugs that they’re giving him in the hospital. It’s like to sit down. I can get you some water or something. I do not wanna sit down and I am not thirsty. I’m getting married. Mom, this is not just about sunny. The police also believe that he killed Abigail.

Justin told me that too, but he didn’t. He has an alibi. There’s a video that proves it, Mom. It’s, it’s, it’s fake. The timestamp was altered, The time stamp.

No. No. No, I’m afraid your daughter’s right. Clyde has multiple felonies out and we have a warrant for his arrest.

No.

Why in the hell would you go after Bell?

Because EJ blabbed her after I told him to keep his mouth shut. About what? Our history, What does that have to do with my wife? I’m trying to tell you, man, but tell me faster. I paint a visit to the management, whatnot. Made the excuse that I was there to talk business with ej.

How the hell would you get on the. It wasn’t very difficult. Well, you wasted you the time. You know, Welcome here. Not a very warm welcome for your old cell mate.

Got anything to drink? I didn’t trust your brother,

so I planted that bug in the house so I could keep some tabs on them. That’s a good thing I did. Because when I listened to Courtney, I found out he’d betrayed me. I pushed play and heard EJ talking to Bell. Everyone said that you were shot by a mugger in the park. You’re saying Clyde did it. He didn’t pull the trigger.

He lured me to the park, threatened me. When things became heated, his man shot me and then they left me there to. That ain’t all he told her. I confronted Clyde before he was being released about what I remembered. He said if I turned him in, it wouldn’t just be me. He would make pay. He would take it. My entire family, EJ assured me that what happened in the park would be our secret, but he’d lied.

But you can’t let Clyde get away with this. I’m not going. It may take some time for my plan to be put into action, but once it is, I’m going to guarantee that Clyde Austin will never be able to hurt me or anyone I love ever again. Your brother wanted to rub me out, but bail talked him out of it. Listen to me, ej.

I am not talking to you as your lawyer now. I am talking to you as someone who really cares about. Don’t be an idiot. You cannot take the law into your own hand. But make no mistake, she still had every intention of making me pay. I think you’re going down the wrong path, okay? And if you try to deal with Clyde on your own, things aren’t gonna work out well for you.

Or what do I do? Just get over the fact that Clyde shot me in the back. No, but you know, you could, Let me think about it and let me figure out a legal way to bring Clyde to justice. So I knew they were coming after me one way or another, so I decided to send EJ a message using Bell. Yeah, I knew she was living with EJ Dimension, so I decided to teach her lesson.

Bella was calm. Oh, thank God. No. Chad what? When he came by earlier, he said he came to pick something up. It was the gun. Are you sure? Maybe it wasn’t in there. I saw it yesterday when I put something in the safe. Chad definitely took it. Why isn’t it obvious? Chad just found out who really murdered his wife.

He’s going to handle Clyde himself. He’s going to kill him. My brother is going to kill Clyde. We need an AP B on Clyde Weston. He’s wanted for murder and attempted murder. Consider him extremely dangerous. He’s just kidding. True. It just can’t be true. Don’t, don’t you touch me. I’ll see if I can catch her.

I’ll come with you.

Now. I really am calling the police to say what? But my brother has a gun. He’s gonna use it to kill Clyde. We have to do something. I’m right. We do. We need to find Chad ourselves before it’s too late.

I’m still waiting to find out how you went from taking bell out to murdering my wife. When I got to the Manion that night,

there was no sign of Bell or your brother, so when you couldn’t find. He decided to murder my wife. That ain’t how it went down. Stop telling me what didn’t happen. It start telling me what did I wanna know how my wife died

and I wanna know everything.

Why’s been living in Nancy Wesley’s house, right? Maybe he’s gone back there. No, I told you they’re getting married today. Do you know where I, I think City hall? Nope. No, no, no. What? No, I’m going with you. No. Yes. But first I’m going to call Sean and tell him that we think that Clyde is at City Hall. I told you I don’t want put all the fully let finish.

Chad is not experienced with guns and Clyde. What happens if he gets the gun away from Chad and uses it on him? Are you ready to deal with that? Uh, alright. Go ahead and call the police, but do it from the car. Okay? Okay.

Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit. Really doing some tea. Have a stiff drink. Oh God. Nancy, I’m sorry. I know what Justin said upset you. It’s so clean, buddy. Justin was right. What? What are you talking about? Craig never showed up for the wedding, but the police did. They had a warrant for his arrest. He’s the one that stabs Sunny and what’s worse?

So much worse. Oh, honey, go on. Go on honey. They said that. Take your time buddy. They said that he killed advocate. Oh God. Oh my God. I suspected, but I didn’t wanna believe it. I’m so sorry. I’m trying so hard not to believe it now, but I kept saying to them the kind that I know he would never do such horrible things, but nothing I said changed their mind.

Well, Lindsey, they had to have proof. Yes. But I just kept right on arguing with them, and I just had this little voice inside of me saying to me, Are you arguing because you think you’re right? Or are you arguing because you’re terrified that you’re wrong? Bonnie? Honey. Honey. Oh.

Start talking. You don’t want to do this to yourself, son, shut up. I Tell me how you did it. I don’t think that hearing about it is gonna do you any good. I know it’s gonna be bad for me. They’re stalling. Yeah. I saw a freshly dog grave over there. Why don’t we try that on for size?

[ Dramatic music ]

Thomas: I’m serious, brooke. Keep it up.

Brooke: That sounds like a threat.

Thomas: I promise that you will never interfere with my father’s life or family again.

[ Taylor chuckling softly ]

Taylor: I’ll never forget monaco. But, god, it confuses me. I… because I know how we feel about each other. But this feels like some– some karmic lesson. I don’t want to force anything either way. If we’re meant to be together, then we’re gonna be together.

Ridge: Is that right?

Taylor: Yeah, that is right. I think it would be smart for you to open your eyes. What you think it is you’re fighting for over there doesn’t make you happy. Is that what you want for the rest of your life?

Eric: Nikki newman in the forrester office right here in L.A.

Nikki: And I came all the way from genoa city.

Eric: Yeah, just to see me.

Nikki: Well, yes, of course, and also to find the perfect forrester original for summer.

Eric: I think you have. Oh, this is my granddaughter steffy.

Steffy: Hi, there. Lovely for me to meet you.

Eric: And hope logan.

Hope: Hi, it’s good to see you again.

Nikki: Good to see you too.

Hope: Yes.

Eric: So, here we are. You think we’re going in the right direction?

Nikki: Oh, eric. Oh, the sketches that you sent didn’t do it justice.

Eric: Good.

Nikki: I– I’m thrilled. I– I know summer will be too.

Steffy: Oh, that’s fantastic.

Hope: I’m sure she’s so excited about her vow renewal.

Nikki: I think my granddaughter is going to be even more excited that eric and ridge forrester, world-renowned fashion designers, have created a dress for her.

Eric: Well, we’re happy to do it. The newmans and the forresters go way back, don’t we?

Nikki: Mm-hmm.

Steffy: By the way, nikki, I’m so sorry my father couldn’t make it, but he does send his regards.

Nikki: And please give him mine. Haven’t seen him in ages. I wish I could catch up with him on this trip, but I’m so scheduled. Oh, my goodness, it is hard to believe that ridge forrester is a grandfather.

[ Eric laughing ] Of course, we all tend to think of ourselves as still 25. I know I do.

Eric: Yes, and so do I.

Steffy: Well, he’s definitely a– a doting grandfather. Family is everything to him.

Nikki: Oh, speaking of which, I’m so glad you and your husband are all right. I read about those terrible shootings. And what you and your family must have gone through. You are all right, aren’t you?

Steffy: Yes. Yes. Despite the hell sheila carter put us through.

[ Tv playing ]

Sheila: What are you doing? I’m trying to watch my stories.

Deacon: I’m pacing.

[ Exhales sharply ]

Sheila: I can see that, but can you stop? Because you’re making me dizzy just watching you.

Deacon: Deal with it.

[ Tv shuts off ]

Sheila: What’s wrong?

Deacon: There’s– there’s nothing wrong, not with me. It’s the situation.

Sheila: What– what situation?

Deacon: You and me living here. Sheila, I don’t know how much longer this can continue.

Nikki: Sheila hurt so many people. In genoa city. In L.A. She was such an evil, destructive force.

Eric: “Was” being the operative word. She’s dead now. She can’t cause anyone else any harm.

Steffy: Thankfully. Though there’s not a day that goes by where I don’t thank god for finn or my family knowing that we were so close to losing him.

Nikki: I would like to meet finn sometime. He sounds like a remarkable man.

Steffy: He is. He’s really remarkable. Remarkable husband, father. He’s loving. He’s really compassionate.

Hope: And he’s great with kids too. They all adore him.

Nikki: It’s hard to believe a sociopath like sheila could give birth to someone so caring given who she is.

Eric: Was.

Nikki: Yes, was.

Eric: Yeah.

Nikki: Past tense.

Sheila: I… I don’t want to hear this.

Deacon: You asked me what was going on. I told you.

Sheila: If you are even suggesting–

Deacon: No, no, I know, I know, sheila. This is not what you want to hear, but with you hiding out here, one screwup and we’ll wind up back in prison. You’re not doing either of us any favors with this insane delusion you have. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Your dream.

Sheila: What dream?

Deacon: Do I look like I’ve got “dumbass” tattooed on my forehead? You know damn well what I’m talking about.

[ Laughter ]

Taylor: Hi, sweetheart.

Thomas: I wasn’t expecting you.

Taylor: I know. I was just on my way into the office, so I thought I’d stop by and see how everything was going.

Thomas: Oh, you’re checking up on me now too.

Taylor: Huh?

Thomas: Uh, I’m sorry. That wasn’t meant for you.

Taylor: Hmm. Who was it meant for?

[ Thomas sighing ]

Thomas: It was brooke.

Taylor: What did she do now?

Thomas: It doesn’t matter.

Taylor: Oh, it does. What did she want?

Thomas: What does she always want? To call me crazy again.

Brooke: Oh, wow, I needed that.

Ridge: Me too.

Brooke: What are you doing here? I thought you were having a meeting with nikki newman.

Ridge: Oh, uh, no, dad’s doing that one.

Brooke: Oh, okay.

Ridge: What about you? I thought you were gonna go see ronaldo.

Brooke: Yeah. Uh, I just pushed that back a bit.

Ridge: Okay.

Brooke: I wanted to go see thomas and talk to him about douglas.

Ridge: Brooke, why do you do these things?

Brooke: Please just hear me out. I’m not doing this to upset you. You know how much I love you. I just… I’m just worried about douglas being in thomas’ care. Sweet pillows of softness!

Nikki: Eric, you are a true artist. It’s gorgeous, and summer is just gonna be a knockout. The cut, the neckline. It’s just stunning.

Eric: Well, those were ridge’s ideas, but I did the– I did the length of the stitching.

Nikki: Oh, well, I love the stitching too. It’s very inspired.

Eric: Thank you.

Nikki: Thank you. Thank you, everybody. I know that you’ll be hearing the same thing from summer as well.

Steffy: Oh, it’s great. So, are you staying in L.A. For a few days, or are you gonna head back to genoa city right away?

Nikki: No, I’m heading back. I have one stop I need to make first.

Deacon: Sheila, please tell me that I’m finally getting through to you, that you’re really hearing me, that you understand that this– this crazy fantasy you have about reuniting with finn and hayes, it just can’t happen.

Sheila: I’m a mother and a grandmother, and no one is going to take that away from me, and you certainly are not taking that away from me.

Deacon: I– I know, and we’ll talk about it tonight, but I’ve got to get to work.

Sheila: Oh, yeah, if I need you, that– that’s right. You want– you do– you do that. You– you go to work, and you see people, and you see your daughter, and I’m– I’m just gonna keep staring at these same boring four walls that i have been looking at ever since I got here while my son and my grandson… forget it.

Deacon: Come on, sheila.

Sheila: What? I said forget it.

Deacon: How the hell did this become like a real marriage?

Taylor: So, brooke went after you because steffy wouldn’t let her talk to your father the other night?

Thomas: Yeah, and because I probably didn’t yell from across the room and be like, “hey, by the way, dad, brooke’s on the phone.”

Taylor: Wait, you knew about it? You were in on it? Honey, you’re just giving brooke reasons to attack you.

Thomas: I understand, but honestly, I think that brooke was just trying to tell me how little she thought of me, and she accused me of not being fit to be douglas’ parent.

Taylor: Wow, like she’s one to talk with her own parental track record.

Thomas: Yeah, I mean, I think it was the knife that’s kind of what set her off.

Taylor: A– a– a knife?

Thomas: Yeah, I was– I was peeling an apple with a knife. You know how you always do before you eat it?

Taylor: Yeah.

Thomas: Yeah, and I think that just triggered her, and, um, yeah, she accused me of being a danger to my own son. I mean, how insane is that?

Brooke: Look, I don’t like to feel this way about thomas. I don’T. I know he’s your son.

Ridge: Are you still concerned that he’s gonna do something?

Brooke: Yes, I am. And– and I’m also concerned that he hasn’t brought him back home.

Ridge: Back home? He had– thomas and hope share custody, and right now it’s thomas’ turn to spend some time with his son because he hasn’T. And he’s gonna be fine. He’s gonna be safe. What do you– what is that? What is that look? What do you know? Tell me.

Brooke: He had a knife. A knife around douglas. I mean, that worries me, ridge. Thomas scares me.

[ Sneezing ] Are you okay? to see nikki.

Hope: Yeah, she has a really good energy about her. Never mind. I’m just glad she liked the dress.

Steffy: Yeah, okay, well, since we have nothing else to really talk about, I’m gonna return some calls.

Hope: Actually, I would like to address the fact– actually, revisit the fact that you hung up on my mom and refused to let her speak to her husband.

Steffy: You’re not over that? I thought we moved on from this.

Hope: Uh, no, I– I wouldn’t say we have, especially given how it is affecting the families. I mean, look how divided we’ve become.

Steffy: I wouldn’t necessarily say that.

Hope: Really?

Steffy: No.

Hope: I’m currently trying to not, uh, have to start a custody war over douglas, and meanwhile you and taylor and thomas are trying to lure ridge away from my mom, so…

Steffy: Yeah, well, the clock’s ticking. My mom feels it. Thomas feels it. Sooner rather than later, brooke’s gonna do something, and my father’s not gonna be able to forgive her, and then my mother and my father, they’ll eventually find their way back to each other.

Hope: And isn’t that what you wanted all along, for my mother’s marriage to fail? It’s okay, you can stop pretending.

Steffy: I never pretended brooke was the woman I wanted for my dad. She is the last person I want for my father. I admit I tried not to interfere when my mom wasn’t here, but she’s back now. And my mother and my father, they’re reconnecting in such a beautiful way. So, yeah, I am rooting for my parents to get back together. And I’ll do whatever it takes to make that happen, hope.

Taylor: Who doesn’t peel an apple with a knife? It– it’s not like you left douglas alone with it or handed it to him and said, “hey, let’s play catch.”

Thomas: I know that, you know that, but brooke, she likes to put her own spin on things.

Taylor: You would never let anything happen to douglas. Brooke is just trying to make a fake fight like she always does.

Thomas: Well, that’s what she loves to do. She loves to paint me in the worst light possible. And why? Because she thinks I’m a terrible person. She– she can’t ever bring herself to believe that maybe I’ve changed.

Taylor: But you know that you have, and we know that you have. You put in so much work to turn your life around.

Thomas: Not according to brooke. Look, I made mistakes, and I’ve done things that I’m not proud of, but I think I’ve moved past that. And– and I made sure to tell brooke that if I am so messed up, it is her fault. Because she came in and she hurt you. She hurt dad, ripping him away from the family that he loves so much, and I’m not going to let that ever happen again. I will protect you and our family from her at all costs.

Brooke: I hate admitting it, ridge. I– I know how much you believe in thomas.

Ridge: But you don’T.

Brooke: I wish I could, for your sake, but I just don’t feel like douglas is safe around him.

Ridge: Come on, because of a knife? Really?

Brooke: Yes, because of a knife. That was very dangerous. And also the fact that he won’t bring douglas home to his mom, to hope. And also his troubled history. I mean, I will protect douglas no matter what. I would call child protective services on thomas if I had to.

Ridge: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Brooke: Yes, I would.

Ridge: Hang on one second. I know you’re upset, but this is my son you’re talking about. No one’s calling anybody. We’re gonna handle this as a family, and if you’re concerned about some knife, then I’ll go get it and get rid of it. I told you I would intervene if there was ever a problem, if i ever felt that– that– that– douglas was in danger. He’s my flesh and blood. I love that little kid, and so does thomas. There’s nothing to worry about.

Brooke: I want to believe you.

Ridge: Well, then do. Believe me. The kid is happy, and he’s safe. Okay?

[ Brooke sighing ] Ridge: Okay. Are you tired of clean clothes that just don’t smell clean?

Deacon: Enjoy.

Woman: Thank you.

Nikki: Let’s make this short and sweet.

Deacon: You came.

Nikki: You said you might have something that would help me with diane jenkins.

Deacon: What are you talking about? I’m kidding. I’ll be right back. I hope this does the trick.

Nikki: Me too. Thanks.

Deacon: Nikki, if there’s anything else I can do, just let me know, okay? I want you to know that, uh, you’re a class act. You always have been. You always will be. And I care about you, and I respect you a lot. And, nik, you do look good.

Taylor: Oh, I’m so glad you came by. It’s perfect timing. I’m– I’m in between clients.

Steffy: You seem a little agitated.

Taylor: I am agitated. I am. Um…

Steffy: What’s– what’s wrong?

Taylor: I talked to thomas. You’ll never believe what brooke is saying about your brother.

Steffy: Oh, no.

Ridge: I’m not sure we need the belt. What do you think? Thomas?

Thomas: Sorry. What?

Ridge: What’s going on?

[ Thomas clearing his throat ]

Thomas: You know what? I– I just got a lot on my mind.

Ridge: Stuff with brooke, you mean.

Thomas: Yeah. I’m guessing she talked to you about it.

Ridge: What happened?

[ Thomas sighing ] She’s– she’s never gonna believe me. Dad, she doesn’t believe that I’m a changed person at all. I mean, she saw me eating an apple with a knife, and she freaked out.

Ridge: She mentioned the knife, yes. Brooke’s concerned, and she, um, she said she’d, um–

Thomas: She said she’d what?

Ridge: She said she would call child services on you if she had to.

Thomas: What?

Hope: Mom, what is really going on?

Brooke: Honey, I know you want to believe that thomas has put all of his ugliness in the past and that he’s learned from his mistakes and he’s a better man, he’s a better father, but he’s not. I saw. I was there.

Hope: So, what did you see?

[ Brooke sighing ]

Brooke: I went over to eric’s to tell thomas to please send douglas home.

Hope: Mom–

Brooke: Look, I know you don’t want me involved in this and you want to take care of it all yourself, but, honey, I am worried. I think that thomas is dangerous. He had a knife.

Hope: What?

Brooke: Yes. He had a very sharp knife. Douglas isn’t safe with thomas. He shouldn’t be in his care. I’m really worried about that little boy.

Here were some introductory remarks about the show. First, from the moderator: The series is inspired by our creator and executive producer Scott show premieres Thursday, September 29th, at 9/8 Central on CBS and Paramount+.
Joining us today is the cast and executive producers of the series. Please welcome creator and executive producer Scott Prendergast, showrunner and executive producer Elizabeth Klaviter, stars Marcia Gay Harden, Skylar Astin, Madeline Wise, Tristen J. Winger, Inga Schlingmann, and Rosa Arredondo.

The second remarks were from the creator/EP Scott Prendergast: “I’m so happy to be here with my showrunner Elizabeth Klaviter and our six incredible cast members. Just a quick recap. This show is based on a true story. My mother’s husband did disappear and I helped her find him and that’s where we drew the inspiration for the show. So it’s very exciting to be here. The cast is incredible. And I’ll just quickly tell you that when I pitched the show, the first thing I said to CBS was if you took Alicia, the lawyer, from “The Good Wife” and Kalinda, the investigator, made them mother and son and had them do “Moonlighting,” that’s the show, and here we are a year and a half later.

This press panel was for the TV Critics Association. They give us a transcript of the interviews, but we’re not allowed to post them verbatim, and there’s no video or audio.

This is a fun new dramady starring Oscar winner Marcia Gay Harden (whom you may remember from “Law and Order” and other shows) and Skylar Astin, who’s probably best known for playing Zoey’s love interest in “Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist” (ZEP) I spoke with Marcia before, years ago, so I was very happy to get a chance to speak to Skylar because I really loved ZEP.
CBS/Paramount let us watch one episode before airing. It’s a quirky show, and those rarely do well on TV, but you never know. One of the more interesting things about it is that the idea for the story came from the show’s creator’s real life experiences.

With these large press panels, we’re lucky to get one question in, so I was ecstatic to ask him if he would be singing on this show. He not only starred in ZEP but was in the musical movie “Pitch Perfect.” He said that they had no plans to do that yet. He didn’t think his character, Todd, would be a very good singer.

The follow-up question to mine asked if filming the show was easier because there wasn’t choreography and everything, like on ZEP and Pitch Perfect. He felt very comfortable doing musicals, but this show has its own “specific rhythm,” so he treats it the same way. He was talking about the dialogue, which is “very rhythmic.”

“So Help Me Todd: A Quirky Blend of Comedy and Mystery Unveiled in CBS’ New Series”

In a recent Television Critics Association (TCA) panel, the creators, cast, and executive producers of CBS’ upcoming series “So Help Me Todd” gathered to share insights into this intriguing blend of comedy and mystery. The series, set to premiere on Thursday, September 29th, at 9/8 Central, promises to captivate viewers with its unique storyline and a cast that seamlessly mixes humor and drama.

“Inspiration from Real Life”

The show’s creator and executive producer, Scott Prendergast, kicked off the event by sharing the series’ origin story. He revealed that the inspiration for “So Help Me Todd” came from a real-life experience where his mother’s husband disappeared, and he played a pivotal role in helping her find him. This deeply personal narrative forms the foundation of the show’s premise.

Prendergast described the series as a blend of “The Good Wife,” “Moonlighting,” and classic CBS procedurals, with a strong focus on the unique mother-son dynamic at its core.

“Balancing Comedy and Mystery”

A recurring theme during the panel discussion was how the show successfully balances comedy and mystery. Skylar Astin, who plays the titular character Todd, explained that while the show has its comedic moments, it also explores deeper emotional aspects. Astin noted that Todd is a complex character, and he enjoys portraying the character’s messiness and vulnerability.

Executive producer Elizabeth Klaviter emphasized that the humor in the show is grounded in authentic character development. The cast’s performances and the witty scripts allow viewers to relate to the characters while enjoying the comedic elements.

“A Cast of Characters”

The cast of “So Help Me Todd” includes the talented Marcia Gay Harden, Skylar Astin, Madeline Wise, Tristen J. Winger, Inga Schlingmann, and Rosa Arredondo. Each actor brings their unique qualities to the series, contributing to the chemistry that makes the show stand out.

Finding Laughter in the Unusual

One of the standout aspects of the show is its willingness to embrace humor in unusual situations. Scott Prendergast shared a real-life anecdote where he pretended to be someone else to locate a missing person. This blend of absurdity and suspense is at the heart of “So Help Me Todd,” making it an engaging and entertaining watch.

Plans for the Future

When asked about the show’s future, Scott Prendergast revealed that they have ambitious plans for seven seasons. He believes that the evolving mother-son relationship and the characters’ growth will provide endless material for captivating storylines. The panelists expressed their excitement about exploring the family dynamics further, including relationships between siblings, colleagues, and adversaries.

A Quirky Family Saga Awaits

As the panel concluded, it was evident that “So Help Me Todd” promises to be a unique addition to CBS’ lineup, offering viewers a captivating blend of comedy and mystery while delving deep into the intricacies of family dynamics. With a strong cast and a commitment to maintaining the delicate balance between humor and drama, this series is poised to become a must-watch this fall.

Prepare to embark on a journey with the Todd family as they navigate life’s twists, turns, and absurdities, all while seeking answers to intriguing mysteries. Tune in on September 29th to catch the premiere of “So Help Me Todd” on CBS and Paramount+.

MORE INFO: Trailer

SO HELP ME TODD stars Academy Award winner Marcia Gay Harden and Skylar Astin as razor-sharp, meticulous attorney Margaret Wright (Harden) and Todd (Astin), her talented but scruffy, aimless son whom she hires as her law firm’s in-house investigator. As the black sheep of the well-heeled Wright family, Todd is a laidback, quick-thinking, excellent former private detective who fell on hard times after his flexible interpretation of the law got his license revoked. Margaret’s penchant for excellence and strict adherence to the law is at complete odds with Todd’s scrappy methods of finding his way through sticky situations: by the seat of his wrinkled pants. When Todd inadvertently teams with his mother on a case, she’s surprised to find herself duly impressed by – and proud of – his crafty ability to sleuth out information with his charm and his wide-ranging tech savvy. At last, Margaret sees a way to put her son on a “suitable” path to living an adult, financially solvent life she approves of, and she asks him to join her firm. Todd agrees, since it means getting his license back and once again doing the job he excels at and loves. Mother and son working together is a big first step toward mending their fragile, dysfunctional relationship, and they may even come away with a better understanding of each other at this pivotal point in their lives. But whether Todd and Margaret will be able to accept each other for who they are is another case entirely.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Phyllis: Party for the bride and groom without the mother of the bride. She’s here.

Summer: Mom, please, just let us explain.

Phyllis: And — and he’s here.

[ Breathes deeply ] Is this why you ran out of the coffeehouse so quickly? You just needed to ditch me to get to the party?

Summer: No, kyle and I had no idea that this is what noah was planning.

Noah: We never planned on excluding you from any of this. You were always going to be invited.

Phyllis: Yeah, just, um — it’s fine. Just — just second on the list. That’s all.

Noah: We never thought about first or second. We didn’t think that it mattered, okay? It’s supposed to be a happy celebration for kyle and summer. As the host, I take full responsibility for messing this up. Can you forgive me?

Nate: [ Sighs ] Hey there.

Elena: Hey. What’s all this?

Nate: Just some drinks before dinner. I have a pot of bolognese simmering in the kitchen.

Elena: Okay.

Nate: Do you want to take a hot shower before dinner? Or I can bring out our appetizers. It’s burrata with heirloom tomatoes.

Elena: That sounds delicious, and this place looks amazing, but if this is your attempt at trying to get me to forget about your plan for corporate espionage against your own family, or trying to convince me to jump on board, it’s going to take a lot more than champagne and flowers.

Lily: I cannot tell you how happy I am that everything worked out with nate.

Billy: I am, too. I think it’s great, and I’m a little surprised he showed up hat in hand with an apology, as well.

Lily: I mean, that took a lot for him to swallow his pride like that, admitting that he overstepped.

Billy: And you met him halfway. I think we appreciate the two of you reaching an understanding.

Devon: Yeah, no, I’m happy that we did, too, ’cause I meant what I said, that I wanted to put this conflict behind us ’cause this constant back and forth isn’t good for us or the company. And I also agree with your suggestion to give him more opportunities to prove that his ideas will work.

Lily: Yeah, I mean, it’s the only way to move forward.

Billy: Yeah, see his ideas in action instead of in a pitch deck.

Devon: And then we will see if the ideas actually do work.

Billy: You’re not saying you’re setting him up for failure, are you?

Victor: By the way, I heard from your mother. Apparently, she met with this deacon sharpe character.

Victoria: Thank you. How did it go?

Victor: Well, she didn’t elaborate, but she hinted that she learned some details about diana jenkins’ life in los angeles.

Victoria: Well, all I know is that I’ll feel a lot better when mom’s home and there were thousands of miles between her and deacon sharpe.

Victor: Yeah.

Victoria: In the meantime, can I run something business-related past you?

Victor: Sure. Go ahead.

Victoria: I’d like newman to become the majority shareholder of chancellor-winters.

[Sfx: Stomach gurgling]

Additional sponsorship

provided by…

Devon: Yeah, no, billy, I would never intentionally set somebody up to fail, especially at my own company. I’m just — I’m agreeing to do what everyone’s urged me to do, and that’s let nate run with some of his ideas despite my reservations and see if they’ll work.

[ Cellphone pings ]

Lily: Is there a problem?

Billy: No, it’s chelsea. She wants to meet for a drink to talk about something, but I’ll just — I can tell her I’m in the middle of something.

Lily: No, it’s fine. Honestly, you should just go. She might have rethought the idea of doing the podcast solo, and I think we need all the content that we can get. We should be firing on all cylinders if and when we go public. So I’ll meet you at home. We have everything under control here.

Billy: Okay. I will do that and I will talk to chelsea and it’ll give you time to talk about going public face-to-face. See you later.

Devon: Ooh.

Lily: Should we do what he suggested?

Devon: I am a little talked out on the subject.

Lily: Yeah, I’m sure. I know we’ve been so focused on chancellor-winters that we haven’t gotten to talk about anything personal. How is amanda doing? I heard that naya’s husband collapsed from exhaustion? Is he okay?

Devon: Yeah, yeah, he’s doing better, but just created a whole lot of stress for amanda. I’m supposed to fly out and spend some time with her this weekend. But I wish there was more that I could do to support her and the family. I feel like I’ve been neglecting her a lot lately. Which is another reason why all this unnecessary back-and-forth energy with nate has gotten to me ’cause I should be and I could be focused on amanda.

Nate: You’ll be happy to know I had a very good conversation with devon and lily today. It was very healing. I made amends with my family, and I’m going to stay on at chancellor-winters.

Elena: Okay. Well, that’s a 180. How exactly did that happen?

Nate: I admitted that I let my anger and pride get in the way of the big picture.

Elena: Uh-huh. But you did that with an agenda in mind, didn’t you? Because staying on with the company is part of your plan. Are you still working with victoria as her man on the inside, or have you rethought that?

Nate: I’m still going ahead with my original idea, but I hope you can believe that this will ultimately be the best move for everyone involved as well as for chancellor-winters. I’m going to use this public offering and victoria’s purchase of the majority stake to unify my family.

Elena: You’re going to have to explain that.

Nick: Phyllis, tell my boy you forgive him.

Phyllis: [ Scoffs ] I forgive you.

Mariah: Okay, everybody, who’s ready to dance?

Phyllis: I’m not. I’m not ready to dance.

Mariah: Nick. Nick, come on. I always count on you to — to bust a move.

Nick: No, let me go check on summer.

Mariah: Okay. [ Chuckles ]

Jack: The place looks great,

Allie: Doesn’t it? Champagne, anyone?

Diane: The decor is amazing. Everything fits. Except for one thing that’s sticking out like a sore thumb.

Kyle: Mom.

Diane: I’m sorry, but it’s hard not to notice her big, pouty face. It’s like she’s about to throw a tantrum.

Traci: Maybe we will all behave ourselves today.

Summer: Dad, I just don’t know what to do anymore. Will you please go talk to her?

Nick: Yeah.

Summer: Thank you.

Nick: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: [ Sniffles ]

Nick: Can I talk to you for a minute? Look, I get it. The last person you want to see right now is diane. I don’t blame you.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] I’m spinning out. I lost my job at marchetti because of her. A job that I loved. I got to work with our daughter.

Nick: What happened?

Phyllis: She happened. She lost her mind, and I got punished for it.

Nick: Alright, I need you to just take a breath for a minute. I need you to leave it alone for tonight, okay? It’s about them. Noah put in all this work. Kyle and summer deserve to enjoy their party. Phyllis, come on. Don’t ruin that. Life… doesn’t stop for diabetes.

Victoria: It seems that nate is frustrated with the current leadership style at chancellor-winters. So he came to me and told me that he’s looking for a change. He was fishing around for opportunities at newman. I told him I would keep him in mind now that we’ve made all of these new acquisitions.

Victor: Huh. Well, he would be good to have on the team. But why in the world would he give up so easily on his family business?

Victoria: He’s not giving up. In fact, nate told me that chancellor-winters is planning to go public soon. He offered himself as my inside man, that he would feed me information and that he would sell his shares to newman so that we could have the majority stake.

Victor: And why would he do that?

Victoria: Because I agreed to put him in charge once newman has control.

Victor: I think he’s playing a very risky game, you know. What if the situation at chancellor-winters implodes and they go after nate? You said something earlier about him being willing to give you some inside information. You know what that means, don’t you? That’s called insider trading. That can have enormous legal ramifications.

Victoria: But when do we ever shy away from a risk?

Victor: You’re tough, like your father. I love it. So let’s do it.

Chelsea: Hi.

Billy: Hey.

Chelsea: Thanks for coming to meet me.

Billy: Yeah, of course. I was in lily’s office when I got your text. She encouraged me to come. We’re both hoping that you are reconsidering doing the podcast solo.

Chelsea: You don’t need to name-check lily to make it clear you’re only here about work. I promise not to misread the situation, make you the target of any unwanted displays of affection.

Billy: Fair enough.

Chelsea: But I should apologize if I lured you here under false hope. I still don’t have any interest in doing the podcast by myself.

Billy: [ Clicks tongue ] Okay. What would you like to talk about?

Chelsea: Well, I wanted to thank you for letting me spend time with johnny at the pool the other day. Connor had a blast.

Billy: Yeah, no, it was great. They had a great time. I mean, they’re cousins, right? They get along really well. It was really nice to see johnny talking about video games with someone besides katie. She doesn’t really put up with him. She kind of covers her ears and runs away.

Chelsea: Connor would be glad to go toe-to-toe with him any day. Um…

[ Sighs ] I don’t want to mince words.

Billy: Mm-hmm.

Chelsea: The hangout the other day was such a success, I think it’s time we told johnny and connor they’re more than just cousins.

Kyle: You think you made some headway with your mom?

Summer: [ Sighs ] I don’t know. But, honestly, right now, I would like nothing more than to just forget about our mothers and enjoy this night.

Phyllis: Hey, everyone, everyone, I want to make a toast. As the mother of the bride….

Diane: Ugh, here we go.

Phyllis: …I’d like to make a toast. So I want everyone to know that diane and i are perfectly capable of being in the same room together. Isn’t that right, diane?

Diane: Oh, of course.

Phyllis: Cheers.

Diane: Yeah, cheers.

Phyllis: Cheers. And this is an incredible party, noah, this is beautiful, what you’ve done. I wish I still owned the grand phoenix. I really do. I mean, this place will be a huge hit.

Noah: Thank you.

Phyllis: Yeah, and I —

[ Sighs ] I want to thank you for including me in this party. So let’s toast to one of the best couples I know, my daughter, summer, and kyle. Cheers.

Jack: Summer and kyle.

Together: Cheers.

Phyllis: Yeah. Hey, let’s party. Okay?

Noah: Yeah.

Charli xcx: ‘Cause you’re everything I’ve spent my whole life fightin’

so when I walk away, it’s not your fault

I always let the good ones go

and, baby, you couldn’t

Nate: I know when i originally defended this idea to you, some of my bitterness and anger with devon came through.

Elena: Some of it, nate? All of it did. And you couldn’t hide it, which is what was so concerning. Coming at anything with that much heightened emotion, it can cause a lot of damage.

Nate: I promise you, I’m not being driven by revenge. What’s fueling me is my desire to prove what chancellor-winters can become under my leadership.

Elena: Don’t you think devon and lily will feel blindsided?

Nate: Yes, at first. But I plan to be the opposite of what devon was as a leader. I am willing to embrace his input as well as lily and billy’s, too, to show how all four of us can collaborate and to create something amazing.

Find nutrients.

Find energy.

Lily: Well, if it makes you feel any better, I know that amanda can feel your love and support, and she’ll really appreciate you visiting.

Devon: Yeah, I hope so. And it will be nice to have some one-on-one time without the pressures of work, you know?

Lily: So, listen, I think that we should talk about taking the company public, because I want you to be as excited as I am of the opportunities that this could afford us, you know, and the kind of things that we could bring to fruition.

Devon: Yeah, I know that you want me to be as excited as you are, and I wish that I was ’cause you made a great pitch, and I know that jill certainly thinks that it’s the right thing to do, but I still have a lot of concerns about it. And the biggest concern is losing control of our family business that neil and I worked very hard to build and then strengthened by joining up with you.

Lily: Yeah, look, I agree with you. I have the same concern. But, you know, we’ve identified the potential problem, and I think that we can structure the ipo in a way where we maintain 51% of the shares. So that way we have the final say on everything.

Devon: Well, let me tell you, that would be the only way that I would agree is if it was for sure that no one could override our decisions. You know?

Lily: See, this is why you and I make a great team, right? We can have opposing points of view, but then we can have a consensus. So do we have one?

Devon: Because I trust you so much, and I know that you just want to see this company succeed as much as I do, if you really think this is the best course of action, then, yeah, I’m on board.

Lily: Yes.

[ Both chuckle ]

Nate: I really need you with me on this. Your support, your love, to know that you understand where I’m coming from and why.

Elena: I want to believe in you, and I want to believe that this can work. I can feel how passionate you are about it and I understand that you think this is the right thing to do and I’m your partner. I want to be able to support you.

Nate: Okay, can I just stop you there? ‘Cause that’s all I need to hear, that the woman I love has my back. I can risk angering my family to get to my ultimate goal, but I cannot risk losing you.

Billy: Look, chelsea, both victoria and i feel like this is not the best time to talk to johnny about you. I’m sure you can appreciate. Look, as much as I am glad that ashland locke is not in johnny’s life any more or victoria’s, victoria did an amazing job protecting him from everything that ashland was. In johnny’s life, he is dealing with the loss of his stepfather.

Chelsea: I understand. I do. But I think johnny will consider this great news. I mean, he has a brother. How cool is that?

Billy: I get it. And it is. It’s just there’s a lot to this.

Chelsea: It’s a complicated situation.

Billy: Yes.

Chelsea: And, look, I’m grateful that victoria has already explained to johnny that he’s adopted, but he’s getting older. He’s going to wonder about his biological mom. Why not get ahead of the questions — who she is, where she is, why she’s not the person raising him?

Billy: Well, to be honest, he’s already had those questions, and we’ve done our best to avoid them at this point.

Chelsea: Because you don’t want to lie to him.

Billy: Look, you make good points, okay? I’ve said that before, but it’s not just up to me or you. This is an important decision for victoria.

Chelsea: Which is why, when you mentioned that when I first broached the topic with you, I went directly to her. But, billy, I have to know, when do you intend to get victoria on board?

Mariah: Alright, excuse me, everybody. Hi, guys. Sorry. Sorry. Alright. So most of you know that this was supposed to be a double surprise. First, the vow renewal that kyle hatched for summer, and then this party planned by noah. So I thought it would be an appropriate time to announce my surprise. Kyle did me a favor, and so I want to return it by appointing myself best person and giving a speech.

[ Laughter ]

Nick: I did not know we could just appoint ourselves things. If that’s the case, I’ll appoint myself king of the dance floor.

Mariah: Oh, yes. I don’t think anybody would dispute that. And, by the way, I’m just kidding about the best person thing. I’m sure that you would rather have harrison or jack. So this is the speech that I would give, as one of kyle’s best friends. You know, I, for one, am thrilled that kyle and summer are renewing their vows. As someone who recently married the love of my life, I know how meaningful it is to have your dearest friends and family bear witness. So to kyle, I am so proud of the man, the husband, and the father that you have become. And to summer [Chuckles] I am truly, truly happy for both of you. I look forward to not only working alongside, but raising our families together for years to come. To summer and kyle.

Together: Summer and kyle. Psoriatic arthritis, made my joints stiff,

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Hey! It’s me! Your dry skin!

Mariah: Oh.

Noah: Alright, well, I’d like to thank everyone for coming out to be a part of this. You know, for me, it’s kind of like killing two birds with one stone, ’cause, on one hand, I get to have a soft open for my new club, and on the other, I get to score some solid big-brother points for throwing this little soiree for the bride and groom.

[ Laughter ]

Nick: My boy’s always thinking.

Noah: Another reason that i wanted to have this party was ’cause it gave me a second chance at my brother-of-the-bride speech. Now, I realize that the first one I gave at your wedding in milan, it… well, it didn’t adequately describe the incredible woman that you’ve become. Yeah, maybe that’s ’cause I was too far away when you were blossoming into this amazing person. But I’m so glad that we’re both home now and we can make up for lost time. See, I see this as a celebration not only for summer and kyle’s love, but one for family and home. So here’s my older sister. You deserve every happiness. And to kyle, the guy who’s lucky enough to have her. Cheers, everyone.

Together: Cheers.

Billy: I am going to ask you to be a little bit more patient. You just sprung this up on us, and I haven’t had enough time to talk to victoria about it.

Chelsea: No time like the present.

Victoria: Well, how convenient to find you two here together. I’ve actually been meaning to talk to you both. Johnny told me that he had a little hangout with connor the other day by the pool. Given everything that you’ve just asked me, chelsea, I don’t really appreciate the two of you organizing this little outing behind my back, so what exactly are you up to?

Nate: Guess we both had the same idea. Late-night snack. Couple bites of the dinner we didn’t get to.

Elena: No. I’m not hungry. I’m worried.

Nate: I thought we settled everything.

Elena: I have a better understanding of what you’re trying to accomplish and your reasoning behind it, but… I still don’t think I can get behind this.

Nate: Why is it impossible for you to see things from my perspective? No matter how many times I try to explain that this is my best option? My only option? You know what? Never mind. It’s not going to happen. You are as limited in your view of what I can accomplish as devon is. I guess the two of you have more in common than I thought. I’m getting some fresh air.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Billy: There was nothing sneaky or subversive at all. We decided to get the boys together. They’re cousins. I mean, you were out of town, and there’s nothing unusual about it at all.

Victoria: Please. Do you really expect me to buy that? You’ve both, on separate occasions, asked me to tell johnny that chelsea’s his biological mom and connor’s his brother. So now you’re going to pretend that that was just a coincidence?

Billy: Victoria, I think it’s a tricky situation. We’re all trying to navigate it the best we can, maybe even lay a little bit of groundwork.

Victoria: Yeah, that’s exactly what you’re trying to do. You’re trying to lay the groundwork and back me into a corner.

Chelsea: Victoria, you’re right. I am so sorry. You are johnny’s mom. We should’ve spoken to you before we got the boys together. I’m not trying to do anything behind your back.

Victoria: Yes, I know that. And we already talked about this, and I said I would think about it. And I have kept my word. I have thought about it. But the bottom line is that johnny and katie have been through a lot lately, and this is not a good time for this.

Chelsea: I’m trying not to get emotional here. I just — I need you both to know how important this is to me. And not because I’m trying to insinuate myself into johnny’s life at all. It’s because I’m worried about what emotional issues this could cause for him down the road when he realizes his biological mom was in his orbit and she never told him. You know, I mean, with all of this dna testing these days, he will discover one day that his half brother and biological mom were not only living in the same town, but they were the people he would see at family gatherings, and he’s going to realize that his relatives all knew it. He’s going to realize that he was the only person who didn’T. Do you realize the damage that could cause?

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Summer: You know, despite the earlier drama with our mothers, this has turned into a really lovely night.

Kyle: We made the right choice moving back to genoa city. This is where we should be building our lives, around everyone we care about.

Summer: You’re right, of course, but it’s also kind of like, be careful what you wish for.

Kyle: [ Chuckling ] Exactly. There will always be bumps in the road, but nothing can replace the importance of family.

Summer: Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

Kyle: [ Sighs ] Let’s do it.

Summer: Mom, first of all, i want to thank you for being here, and I’m so sorry about that botched arrival earlier. That was no one’s intention. You have to know how much it means to me and kyle that you’re here for the celebration.

Kyle: Maybe it was all the speeches about family and home, but summer and I would like to see you back at the office tomorrow.

Diane: What?

Summer: We’re giving you one more chance, but this is seriously the last one.

Diane: Oh, I’m so grateful. Thank you.

Phyllis: Yeah, thank you very much. I’m really happy to have my job back. I have so much more to accomplish at marchetti. I really do. So I look forward to a long tenure without incident.

Diane: Yes, phyllis and I are going to find a way to put down our swords and work together.

Kyle: Please mean it.

Summer: Don’t make us regret this.

Diane: We won’T. We won’T.

Phyllis: Oh, yeah, promise. Promise.

Diane: Now, both of you should put aside any unpleasantness that we’ve caused and just go and enjoy yourself.

Phyllis: Yeah, you don’t have to worry about us anymore.

Kyle: Okay.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Victoria: Of course I want what’s best for johnny. He’s my priority. He always has been. That’s why I never hid the fact that I wasn’t his biological mom.

Billy: She was always so wonderful with him. She was always honest. She always told him that she was not the mother that carried him, and those were difficult conversations to have, but she did not shy away from them. Saying that, maybe it’s time we tell johnny about chelsea.

Victoria: It’s always been my intention to tell him at some point when it was right. It’s just that time, it’s gone by so quickly.

[ Sighs ] When we when we tell johnny — if we tell him — it’s going to change everything for all of us. You know that. And then johnny has to decide what kind of a relationship that he wants to have with you and connor. And if he’s not ready to process this and — and if he doesn’t suddenly want to spend more time with you, I need you to be willing to accept that.

Chelsea: I am.

Victoria: Okay. And, of course, you’re going to have to explain things to connor. He may not react the way that you expect him to. He’s been through a lot, as well.

Chelsea: I know.

Victoria: I would only ask that you don’t tell connor until we have a chance to speak to johnny about it, because he’s the one that’s going to be the most affected by this, and his feelings should be considered first and foremost, of course.

Chelsea: Of course. Of course. And I just hope that johnny will want to know connor as his brother.

Victoria: And I imagine that you’re also hoping that he’ll want to know you in a different way, but you should be prepared that he might not want that, and you have to accept his decision, because I’m only willing to take this step if that’s the way it’s going to be. (Vo) when you live with moderate to severe crohn’s disease

Summer: [ Giggles ]

Jack: Nice to see our kids so happy, isn’t it?

Diane: Oh, it is. A mother couldn’t ask for more.

Jack: So you mind telling me what that little tte–tte was about between you and the kids and phyllis?

Diane: Oh, well, they decided to give us another chance at marchetti. I mean, to be honest, I was really surprised. I thought I had blown it this time. Wait a minute. Don’t tell me you had something to do with that.

Jack: No, no, not at all. Any decisions made at marchetti are kyle’s and summer’s to make. I was very impressed with your taking responsibility and offering your resignation.

Diane: Well, I’m trying to make better choices these days.

[ Sighs ]

[ Cellphone pings ]

Jack: Everything alright?

Diane: Uh…oh, yeah. It’s just spam.

Chelsea: I agree to those parameters. They are fair and sensible. And thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Victoria: Then we have a plan.

Billy: I think victoria and i need to get together and have a conversation about when and where to tell johnny.

Victoria: And then it would be up to him.

Chelsea: Understood. I can’t believe it. Thank you. Thank you.

[ Sighs ]

Audra: You’re nate hastings.

Nate: You got me. I apologize. Were you a patient of mine?

Audra: I recognize you from the press coverage of the chancellor-winters lunch party. You made quite the splash.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] Didn’t realize at the time what kind of waves that splash would make. So what is it you do that has you memorizing names and faces of people in the business news?

Audra: Audra charles. My name’s not ringing a bell? You’re lucky I’m not offended easily.

Nate: Should I recognize it?

Audra: Yes, considering I’m meeting with your team at chancellor-winters tomorrow, jill brought me in to help take your company public.

Nate: I hadn’t heard the decision was official.

Audra: It’s not. But I hope it will be by morning.

Nate: In that case, can I join you? I’d be happy to answer any questions you have about the company or about our plans. Anything I can do to help. I’m looking forward to a smooth and successful venture.

Nick: How you holding up?

Phyllis: I’m okay.

Nick: I’m very proud of your restraint.

Phyllis: Thank you. Excuse me.

Next week on

“the young and the restless”…

Billy: I mean, how could she mislead us on her intentions in that way?

Victoria: This really surprises you that a former professional con artist would lie to get what she wants?

Elena: I don’t know if I can be around this version of you anymore.

Nate: What are you saying?

Elena: I think we need some time apart.

Diane: How did you get in here?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Brando, can you hear me? Brando? Please tell me you didn’t leave me.

[ Door opens ] Brando? You look a lot better. Thanks.

[ Door closes ] I’m so glad that you are out of that icu. Yeah. If only I could get out of this hospital altogether. Can’t wait to get out of here. All in due time, right? Okay. Since you told me about nikolas sleeping with esme, kind of sounds to me like your marriage is over. So have you thought about where you’re gonna go when they discharge you?

[ Knock on door ] Come in. Hey. What brings you by? Just checking in to see how you’re doing. Yeah. Is that reiko? Yeah. Yeah. It was taken at — taken on the mariana islands a long time ago. I see. What’s got you thinking about your late wife? Oh — nurse andrea: Dr. Finn? Yeah? Mr. Sanchez is prepped and ready for you. Oh, I’ll be right there. I’m sorry, dad. This might take a while. That’s okay. I’ll — I’ll walk out with you. Yeah? Thanks. Who are you? Here’s to you. Thank you. First of all, you don’t have to toast me. And second of all, you don’t have to drink a plain iced tea just because I can’t drink. I wanted a glass of iced tea, just like I wanted to celebrate my best friend. Especially after that scoop. “Two victims, one hook.” Definite clickbait. Brava, madame editor-in-chief. I had my reservations at first, but it turns out there was a lot of traffic on the website. And well-deserved. So, how’s kristina doing? What did she think of the article? I don’t even think she read it. What do you mean? You said she walked in on the attack. Is she having a hard time? Just the opposite. She doesn’t think witnessing the attack put her in any danger at all. I did manage to keep her name out of the article. But what if the attacker saw her and didn’t realize that kristina didn’t see the attacker? I don’t like the fact that she’s taking this so lightly. Then again, I’m not surprised at all. She’s always been a very gutsy girl. Even witnessing an attack won’t bring her down. No. She has her mother to do that for her. Alone at last.

[ Sighs ] You’ve sent the waiter away. Does that mean the meal is over? Mm, not at all, my dear. It just means now it’s time to serve ourselves.

[ Sniffling, gasps ] Brando? It’s me.

[ Sighs ] Did you really think I was brando? No. I-I know that it’s impossible. I just can’t believe that he’s gone. Yeah, it’s hard to believe. He was one of a kind. Hey, come on.

I have been thinking a lot about what happens when I’m well enough to leave G.H. Proud as I am of the metro court, and I’m super proud of it, I hate the idea of you camping out in a hotel room, so you’re just gonna have to stay with me. Oh. Well, thanks. But I — you know, I don’t — I don’t want charity, nina. Definitely don’t want pity. Ava, come on. We’re way past that. We have so much dirt on each other. I think by now we’re firmly ensconced in the girlfriends zone. I feel the same way. And friends, they help each other. It’s not charity. There’s no pity. Yeah, I know. But I… you don’t really want to stay with me because you would prefer to go back home to wyndemere. But, ava, nikolas is there. I’m not sure how this happened, but somehow in my trying to warn kristina about potential danger she may be in, I sort of blurted out that she was not living up to her full potential. Music to her ears, no doubt. And then to add to that, I sort of blurted out that she was risking her life for a dead-end job. Well, I’m sure that worked. You didn’t bring up law school? No. Oh, no. She’s sharp. She knew what was happening. And that is just my point. She’s too smart to be spending her life making work schedules for the wait staff. I completely agree. But it is her life. I’m painfully aware of that. Mm-hmm. I will try to do better at keeping my opinions to myself.

[ Laughs ] Good luck with that. Alexis. Yes? Hey, I’m glad I ran into you. I need your help. Nurse andrea: Elizabeth? You’re off today, aren’t you? What are you doing here? Call gladys. We’re okay. We’re okay. How’d you find me? Well, there are two places that brando always wanted to be. One was with you, and the other is in his garage. So I figured if you were looking for brando, you would come here. He really did love this place. I think you giving it to him was the best thing that ever happened to brando. Not at all. You were.

[ Crying ] So there’s more. Whatever you desire. You deserve to be waited on hand and foot. So please, I am utterly at your service. Your wish is my command. Well, I can’T. I mean, this has all been so lovely, and to ask for anything else would just be horrible. No, no, please. Please ask. You must promise me you must always be honest with me, no matter what. Shoe. What? Give me your shoe. No way. Come on, these things are italian.

[ Shoe thuds ]

[ Water splashes ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Screams ]

[ Water splashes ]

Can we talk? What is this about? I’d rather speak in private. Ava.Ava. Fear not, nikolas. I have to be going anyway. Alexis, it was lovely having half a drink with you. Go easy on krissy and yourself. Prince. So, you know, there are therapy apps where you can find a marriage counselor, you can speak to them in person or do it virtually. That’s not what I want to talk about. You said that ava was too proud to forgive a stupid mistake. Do you remember that? I do. Well, I should have listened to you. You understand the way that ava thinks. God help me. Clearly, ava and I, we have a volatile relationship. But when she was attacked, everything crystallized for me. I want ava in my life. I don’t want to lose her. And I take it ava didn’t have the same epiphany. No. That’s why I need some straight talk. Is it time for me to give up on my marriage? Wyndemere is huge. You know? And nikolas and i have lived there together in the past when we were estranged. Is this like the strategy keep your enemies close? Something like that. Alright. You know what? You told me before that you wanted to wait to make nikolas pay for cheating on you. Is now the time? I mean, I’m sure scott is just chomping at the bit to file a generous divorce settlement for you. You know, I, uh — I haven’t spoken to scotty about this yet. Ava jerome, you’re stalling. You’re still in love with your husband. You spoke to gladys? She said to thank you for finding sasha. I, um — I guess I should go home. I just want to stay here. Stay. Go. I felt like — like brando was here, working, like any minute, he would walk through that door with some part that he had forgotten to order. And he would smile and kiss me and say “thank you for waiting.” Like any other day. But brando is gone. And no matter how many times I pretend or wish or try to convince myself that it’s just a horrible nightmare…

[ Crying ] …Brando isn’t here. He’s not anywhere.

[ Sighs ] You know what? It’s like my — my son morgan. Um, with my dad, it was different because I got to say goodbye to my dad, but — but morgan, he was like brando. It was unexpected. It was sudden. One minute he’s here. Next minute he’s gone. We didn’t even have a body to bury. I got to confess something to you. A lot of times I go into crowds, and I — I just want to see him, you know? Sometimes the phone rings… and I think it’s him. How long did you feel that way? Tell you the truth, I still scan crowds for morgan. I just want to be able to see him one last time, you know? My boy, my son. Tell me, lucy, what — what do you want from me? Just — just name it. No, I can’T. I mean, you asked me not to ask you, and so I just — I can’T. I won’t ask you. But you also told me to wait, and I’m so bad at waiting. I’ve never been good at it. And I’m just really brimming with curiosity. You know, I have always just loved a man with a big plan.

[ Chuckles ] So I’m just so excited. Come on. Couldn’t you just give me a teensy, weensy little hint, please?

[ Engine rumbles ] W-what is that? Are we stopping? Well, we certainly shouldn’t be. Mr. Cassadine. What is it? What’s going on? Someone went overboard. (Vo) when you live with moderate to severe crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, your day can be full of reminders of your condition. You weren’t made for uc or crohn’s, but entyvio is. In clinical trials, entyvio helped many people achieve long-term relief and remission. Infusion and serious allergic reactions can happen during or after treatment. Entyvio may increase risk of infection, which can be serious. Although unlikely, a risk of pml, a rare, serious, potentially fatal brain infection cannot be ruled out. Tell your doctor if you have an infection, experience frequent infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. Liver problems can occur. Ask your doctor about entyvio. Entyvio, entyvio, entyvio one prilosec otc in the morning blocks excess acid production for a full 24 hours. Unlike pepcid, which stops working after 9. 24 hour protection. Prilosec otc one pill, 24 hours, zero heartburn. It’s josslyn.

[ Clears throat ] Sonny. Go ahead. What do you want, diane? Gladys said that sasha was here, and I’d like to speak to her. She’s in the office. Brando’s office. S-she doesn’t want — you know, she doesn’t want to deal with anybody. Wants to be left alone. I can wait. I need to go over some legal issues that have arisen with brando’s death. Hell of a time, diane, to be doing business, don’t you think? I’ve been asked to serve as interim counsel. Martin grey is still out of town. We’re dealing with brando’s widow. Why should I trust you to represent her when you grilled me on the stand? Believe me, sonny, I could have gone a lot harder on you. Dex, go. Understand something, sonny. I liked brando a lot. I love the fact that he came into town and — and rescued carly. I love the fact that he became a father figure to — to dev cerci, that boy that you were trying to keep in the country. And then he infiltrated cyrus renault’s organization and saved sasha. All he wanted was to make an honest living. Brando corbin was a hero who deserved a much better hand than the one life dealt him. You’re not gonna get any argument from me there, diane. I am not trying to capitalize on tragedy, sonny. I’m just trying to do right by brando by helping his widow at the request of her lawyer and his grieving mother. And you — you expect me to ignore that you just pretty much — you grilled me on that stand at nina’s hearing. I mean, how could you do that to me? I was fighting for michael and willow. I was doing my utmost to win the case for them, as I would for any client, no matter how ungrateful. Sonny, I have been through thick and thin with you. I have been through good and bad. I have protected you and yours. And I have done pretty much everything except dig a grave in the pine barrens. You sided with michael. Because michael retained me to defend against the petition brought by nina for visitation. And if you will recall, you and nina were not a couple formally at the time, so there was no conflict of interest. And it was you who spontaneously volunteered to testify on nina’s behalf, asked scott baldwin to put you on the stand. I was only cross-examining you the way any halfway competent lawyer would. You laid out…

[ Scoffs ] …My life for everyone to see. That’s personal to me. How can I forget that, diane? In love with nikolas? Oh, hardly. No, I am not the sort of woman that’s gonna let somebody cheat on me and humiliate me and get away with it. Mm. Ava, besides me, who knows that nikolas slept with esme? Besides you, um… just spencer and victor. Well, I doubt they’re gonna throw it into your face if you decide to forgive nikolas. I mean, I won’T. Why are you pushing for me to get back with nikolas? I’m not pushing for you to get back with nikolas. I just — I just don’t want your pride to get in the way of your happiness. It is your prerogative if you want to expose nikolas’ bad behavior or if you want to forgive him. I just want you to be happy. I don’t know if I could live with myself if I gave him another chance. I would be worried, wondering if it could happen again. And I’ve lived with that kind of betrayal in the past. I lost my daughter because of it. I know. We both have made our share of mistakes, and we both have suffered. And we’ve paid terrible prices, haven’t we? But we’re still here. Just barely. No. Listen, you’re on the mend. You are. And it’s pretty amazing that we both found love after everything we’ve been through. It’s kind of like a miracle, isn’t it? So, ava, whether or not you want to forgive nikolas, it’s up to you. But if you still love him… did you know I blackmailed nikolas into this marriage in the first place? That is hardly a foundation for everlasting commitment. Well, your marriage may not have started as a love match, but it’s a love match now. Do you want to give up on your marriage? No. But I’m at the end of my rope. I mean, nothing I’ve said has budged ava even a bit. Well, that’s ’cause talk is cheap.

[ Scoffs ] Is that the best you can do? May I remind you that you came to me? You’re more than welcome to vacate that bar stool for a more nuanced commentary. Okay. I am sorry. I’m just trying to figure out what to do. Do you think that I need to take action? I don’t know what you need to do. I don’t know what you did, and I don’t want to know. I’m just asking you, whatever it was, will it cost ava her pride to forgive you? Definitely. Then you need to give something back. Like what? I don’t know. Something that shows ava that you value your relationship with her to put something on the line, to risk something for her. Just like you’re asking her to swallow her pride in order to take you back. So, I convinced kevin to hypnotize me again because I was on the verge of remembering something. I just didn’t do it in the session. And then I did. Finn, I remembered the face of the woman at the bottom of the stairs. That’s encouraging. Who is she? That’s the thing. I don’t know. You saw her face, but you didn’t recognize her. I cannot place her. I have no memory of this person except for the moment on the stairs. Except I feel like she wasn’t a stranger.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Thanks. That’s, uh — that’s reiko. That’s my late wife. Victor: Are you sure there’s a man overboard? Deckhand: Yes, sir. I saw a body hit the water and told the captain to stop. We’re circling back now. What? Well, what are you doing standing around here for? Come on. Help with the rescue operation, man. Victor, oh, my god! This man could drown! You need to go help. I mean, you’re so strong. Alright. I suppose I should go supervise. Listen, I promise I won’t be too long. Perfect. I’ll be right here when you come back. Go on. Go with the wind. Psst, psst. Come on. He’s gone. He’s gone. He’s gone. Okay, wait a minute. Did you — did you just throw a man overboard? Wait a minute. What happened to your shoe? Don’t worry about it. It was just johann. He never saw us. Don’t worry. No one knows we’re here. That could change any moment. What are you doing here? We’re rescuing you. What if I don’t want to be rescued?

We don’t have time for games, lucy. Victor could be back any moment. We have to go. I cannot go right now because then he’ll know that I am playing him. And he’ll know that you probably set me up to do this whole thing. He is just starting to open up to me. This is obviously the scene of a seduction. Champagne, petit fours. How do you expect this evening’s gonna end, lucy? Yeah, how? I can handle victor. He is putty in my hand. Well, that’s a very expensive gift. It’s really nice, isn’t it? Focus. Okay, listen. I haven’t felt this alive in years. I still got it. Okay, well, there’s no need to keep discussing this. I would like to speak with sasha, but if that is not going to happen, please, please have her give me a call. Diane, wait.

[ Sighs ] Sasha needs a good lawyer. Good?

[ Door opens ] Diane. Hey, honey. I am so, so sorry about brando. I was just telling sonny how much I admired him. Thank you. Now, I don’t want to intrude on your grief, but martin grey is still out of town. So he and your mother-in-law feel that there may be some pressing legal issues that require your prompt attention. So I’ve been asked to serve as interim counsel, if that’s okay with you. I guess. But what is so important that it can’t wait? It’s a confidential matter. It’s okay. You can talk in front of sonny. Alright. It concerns your guardianship. Oh, that’s settled. Brando — your agreement to avoid prison stipulates that you must have a legal guardian. Are you saying, diane, that the agreement is null and void? Am I going to prison? Well, if it isn’t the woman behind the headlines. How’s the response? Good and bad. I think the general public is glad that they were alerted to the fact that there’s a hook-wielding maniac on the loose. The police commissioner, that’s another matter. I’d like to hear more. Are you leaving? You have time to join me for a cup of coffee? Sure. Why not? Elizabeth: This is reiko? Finn: A long time ago. We were both with doctors without borders. It was our first post. She looks so young. Yeah. You don’t talk about her. I know. Never been able to make peace with how she died. Infected with the same disease I was trying to cure. Blackwoods disease. Uh-huh. What brings her up for you now? Um, a case — case I’m working on. It reminded me of something that reiko and I went through when we were posted on the mariana islands. Mariana islands? That’s near guam, right? Yeah. You amaze me. Most — most people don’t even know those islands exist. And when we were there, we had A… a good friend, good doctor, and he… he died of this poisonous snake bite. You okay? You got a headache? Yeah, just a little bit. From the hypnotherapy? Probably. I’m just so frustrated because I have all these little pieces that I can’t quite seem to put together to see the larger picture. It’s okay. It’s coming. Every day you’re learning a little more. None of this makes sense. I need to go home and just lie down for a little bit. I think you’re incredible. We’re gonna find the truth. You are in way over your head, lucy. You can’t underestimate victor. I know, I know. But listen to me. He actually told me that he has plans. Some kind of plans, big plans. And he wants to include me. What plans? I-I don’t know, because the two of you interrupted. But I am getting this close to it. Shh. Someone’s coming. Okay, look, this is your last chance. If you don’t come with us now, you’re on your own. I’m fine. I’m fine. I’m on my own. I got this. I promise. I’ve got this. Oh, oh, oh, oh.

[ Coughing ] Oh, my — oh, my goodness. What — what — what happened? This is awful. What happened? Well, I’m not entirely sure. Johann went overboard, but he isn’t able to tell me exactly how or why. I guess he must have got a concussion when he hit the water. Oh, dear. That’s horrible. Here, drink this. Drink this. Here. Take it. Come on, man. Focus. Tell me what happened. I was on the deck. Maybe I lost my balance? Well, could you have been pushed? I mean, did you see anyone else? I don’t remember seeing anyone. I was… you were? You were what? Having a drink. Oh, my goodness. You were drinking on the job? You know, that is really dangerous. I wasn’t drunk. Alright, come on. You better go back to your state room and dry off. Come on. I’ll call the captain and see if we have a medic on board. I’m sorry for the trouble, mr. Cassadine. Yeah, well, we’ll deal with this later. Oh, dear. Poor johann. You know, alcoholism is such a serious burden. Something’s off.

I only agreed the first time because I trusted brando. Now that he’s gone, it’s — it’s over for me. No, no, no, no. Legally, it’s not. Okay, but sasha should not have to be going through this right now, diane. I completely agree. That is why I am prepared to file a continuance, pending your approval. Do you — do you understand what that means? Yes. And that’s fine. You have my approval. Thank you. Now, do you know where brando kept his copy of your guardianship decree? His office. Or — or maybe our place. He didn’t say. Do you want — you want diane to go in his office and check for the papers and stuff? The sooner we get this sorted, the better. I mean, that is if it’s okay with you. Yes. Okay. Yeah, that’s fine. I should go home. I’m tired. Okay. I’ll take you. Okay. Um, the office is in the back. Copy that. I’m on it. Hey, diane. Thank you. Actually, I have it on good authority that the police commissioner is unhappy with our article. Does it surprise you? I’m not insensitive to her concerns. I just consider warning the public to be a part of the greater good. It doesn’t hurt that the readership is up, does it? 30%. Most people were glad for the warning, and a small amount thought

the invader was fearmongering. The article I read didn’t sensationalize the crimes. It just gave the public the facts. I was very impressed. Now I can sleep at night.

[ Laughs ] I know my opinion doesn’t really matter. Actually, it does. It matters to me. I could use some help. I found sasha. What? I’m confused. What — sasha was missing? Why didn’t someone call me? We’re here at brando’s garage. I’m gonna take her home. Can you meet us there? Yeah, of course. I need to be there. I’ll see you soon. What is that? Is sasha okay? No. I mean, considering. No. Sasha is definitely not okay. And I should be with her.

[ Knock on door ]

[ Sighs] Can we talk? Go. Help sasha. I’ll be okay. Well, say whatever it is you came here to say. But just know that it’s gonna take a lot more than words to make things right between us. I know. That’s why I brought this.

I need you to wait till ms. Miller’s finished. Make sure you lock up. I’m taking sasha home. She gonna be okay? She’s got her family to take care of her. Hey. You ready to go? Yeah, I’m done. Alright. Don’t worry. I’ll take care of things here. What is that? I’m done talking. This is proof of how much I love you. Okay. Zodiac’s docked. Are they coming after us? No, I don’t see any sign of a disturbance. I think we got away clean. Whew. Well, except for the shoe. You’ll live. You’re glowing, you know. Yeah, you smooth talker. You’re really in your element, aren’t you? It’s fun working together. Sorry our rescue attempt fell flat. Oh. Yeah. I mean, I-I wanted victor to be enamored with lucy, but I am still very concerned that putting her in his sights is just such a risk. Well, it was her call. She didn’t want to leave. No. We’re going to keep an eye on the situation. If she needs us, we can help her. I worry that it’s not if, but when. Why don’t we get back on track and resume this date we’re having? Date? Well, now, I’m surprised you call it a date. You seem determined to make it all about business. Well, I don’t know too many business meetings I’ve had where I’ve been presented with diamonds, so I can safely assume that this is a date. You don’t seem angry. Well, I am compelled to tell you that I’m spoken for. And I really am very much in love with marty. However, you are making it very, very difficult to stay true. And I find myself wondering, what would a future with mr. Victor cassadine look like? Well, let’s find out. This coffee is probably the last thing that I need. I’ll be up all night. Not that I need an excuse. I’m still really worried about kristina. She witnessed that attack, and — and that could make her a target. Have you given more thought to your idea about posting an open letter in the invader to try and draw the killer out, get them to give something away, some clue that might help the pcpd to catch them? Then kristina will be safe. I think if we engage the killer, keep them occupied, it might give the police more time to investigate. Start a dialogue, maybe provide a distraction. It’s a fine balance, though. Don’t want to give the attacker a platform. Just enough rope to hang. You know, I’ve been a lawyer for a long time, and I’ve seen cases like this, and I don’t believe for one minute that this killer is done.

[ Sighs ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, Detective Hunter, I keep telling you Mrs. Hernandez, please call me Jada and I keep telling you Jada to call me Nicole. What brings you by, Well, I know it’s Eric’s first day here, so you brought him his lunch. No, uh, I meant that I hate to bother him, but I think he has my phone. This is his, I must have picked it up by mistake, Lynn, when you woke up in bed together this morning

and call purchasing and say that we need an extra order of that wool.

Okay, so how did things go with Bell? Well, my hand is cramping from all the documents I had to sign. It’s official. I have full custody of Rachel . Oh, I’m so happy for you, Brady and for Rachel.

I’m so, I’m honestly, I’m so overwhelmed, but I’m also surprised. I’m surprised with all that stuff that Kristen Dred up in the courtroom. I, I don’t know how the judge ruled in my favor, but, Huh. Well, hi.

So once you get back into Salem last night, uh, and when was the last time you saw Leo? Um, I think just now would’ve been, um, probably the morning after our, our boarded wedding. Ugh. Yeah. So you left town right after that? Mm-hmm. . Mm. When, Right back to New York when cut ties. I Could I ask where you were?

September 1st? I’m, I’m not sure why. Well, it’s nice. Sunny C was stabbed.

That’s odd. What? Well, all the time that Craig and I were married, he, he never wore after shave or cologne. Maybe he started wearing it after the, the two of you split up something that smells like vanilla. Oh, that would be a coincidence. Why do you, why do you say that? Because that’s what my fiance wears.

Clyde Wesson. Mm-hmm. , You know, at first I kind of thought it was feminine because it’s so sweet, but. You now? I kind of like it.

What? Nothing. I just thought that I smell Benoa.

Oh my God. Chad, what is it? What’s wrong?

Clyde.

Like sand through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

Well, I happened to run into the judge in the hallway outside of the hearing. And I told her that we knew we can’t use Kristen’s past crimes against her because of her. Pardon? But I told her that I have evidence that she tried to assault me after she was released. You told the judge that she threatened to attack you with the letter opener?

Well, I didn’t give her the play by play, but I gave her the surveillance video from our office. I’m assuming she watched it. Why didn’t you tell me about that earlier? Because if Kristen found out that I was the reason that she lost this case, then she would use that against me with Rachel. And, and even worse, she would use that against you.

And I didn’t want Rachel hating you for being with me. I mean, that that poor kid has been through enough already. And the judge was okay with this. Well, she was a little. Wary, but I sort of sense that she was really frustrated with this whole situation and I think she clearly knew that there was a whole lot more that was going on that she wasn’t privy to.

But because of Kristen’s, pardon? She couldn’t even consider any of the real facts. So I considered this just helping un entire hands a bit so that she could make the ruling she wanted to make all. Look, I know, I know this was a bit risky, but I just, I couldn’t stand by and watch you lose custody of Rachel to that monster.

So I am not sorry for what I did, but I, I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you Sarah. Don’t, don’t, I don’t even want to hear you say sorry you didn’t have to be sorry about anything. You understand Because of you, I, I’m not gonna lose my little girl. I’m gonna have her forever. Chloe, I told you recently how much I adore you.

Well, that was very transparent. Transparent meaning what? The comments you just made. Or was it a question? Well, I, I suppose it was a, uh, rhetorical question that I already knew the answer to. What? Why are you looking at me that way? What way? Like, I’ve offended you so deeply. Look, you are the one that told me you had Eric’s phone and he had yours.

Yeah. And then total non sequiter, you ask if the phone mix up happened when Eric and I were in bed together. Well, it was a reasonable assumption. I, I mean, this image just popped in my head. That’s all. I had pictured these phones getting mixed up under the sheets or whatever. Eric and I don’t keep our phones in the sheets.

Well, I just, I meant that, you know, I pictured you and Eric waking up in bed together. So what, how is that transparent? Oh, come on. It does not take a strength to realize that you’re being bothered that I’m involved with your ex-husband. Which I might understand if it wasn’t for the fact that you are a newly way.

In fact, you are married to a great guy. In my opinion, I am not bothered that Eric has a girlfriend. I’m just protective and look, I really hope you two are right for each other, right? That would make you deliriously happy. Okay. Can we cut the sarcasm please? Well, can you be honest that you are not rooting for Eric and I to be happy?

In fact, you are waiting and hoping that we fall apart. That is not true.

Okay. I admit, I overstepped when I made that comment about you and Eric waking up in bed together. Okay? So whatever you two do behind closed doors is none of my business, but I already knew that you two were. Sleeping together. Yeah. Yeah. Because you told me when I dropped by Erics the other day. Right, right.

Um, that was when you came by to offer Eric the, uh, job, wasn’t it? Your husband had mentioned it to me. Wow. I would thank you. Two would have more interesting things to discuss at the station. Oh, but you see, this is very interesting. You see the day after you came to visit Eric, he was just talking to me about looking for a job, and he said he was looking for one as a photographer, which makes sense considering his vast amount of experience, which makes him the perfect hire for basic black, right?

But he didn’t mention that. In fact, he was saying how scarce these kind of jobs are. Oh, well we just happened to have an opening, and I get all that, but why didn’t Eric mention. I mean, especially since you just offered him the job. At least that’s what you told ra. Excuse me. Are you calling me a liar?

Um, I’m sorry. Commission. Are you asking me if I, if I stab son Cka? I’m just gathering information. Ah, information. About my whereabouts when the attack occurred. Yeah. Um, well I was, I was just visiting with Leo and his cell, as you know, and it was just going on and on about, uh, how I must have, you know, wanted payback for him breaking my heart.

That’s all he kept saying. Is accusations overcome? Um, yeah. I’m aware of the accusation, which are Arthur Raving, So Desperate man. As, as I’m sure you know,

Oh my Rav is Craig. He is accusing me of stabbing Sonny and murdering advocate. Aga dir, I.

Look, you can’t actually believe that I would be so blinded by, by hatred for Leo that I would, I would take an innocent woman’s life. I, I would forget my oath. Did you? No harm. Oh my God.

You believe him? Actually believe him.

What are you uh, doing here at Clyde? Well, as a matter of fact, I just got called in for a random drug test, you know, as part of my parole, which is something you should know a little bit about being an ex con and all. Not exactly. Yeah. I know you got the conviction overturned, but you did several time. You do remember when we shared an address at Statesville, don’t you?

It’s hard to forget. Um, seeing as you tried to. But then Ben tried to stop you and you ended up shing him instead. , isn’t it amazing how I just turned himself into a standup guy? You know, I’m trying to do the same thing. Does that, So, yeah. Ever since I got out, I’m doing everything I can to turn my life around.

You’re looking at a change guy. Oh, glad to hear that. I’d love to stay and chew the fat with you. But Nancy and I got a date, she and I going down the city hall and get hitch. Congratulations. Thank you. You take good care of that husband of years. Now. I’m really glad to hear they caught the guy that attacked him.

Must be a real relief knowing that scum like that is off the street. Now,

Chad, what is it? But I just re remember when I saw Craig Clyde was standing right there. So I must have been his clo I was smelling. That must have been it. You don’t have know what Clyde is now, do you? Um, he’s at the hospital getting his drug test. It’s a condition of his parole troll. But you know, if you really wanna get some of that cologne, you’re not gonna have any problem.

I know for a fact they sell it down at parents I’ll to get some, Huh? Chad, are you sure? You’re all right. You’re as Payless a ghost. I’m fine. I just, I I have to be somewhere.

I never accused you of lying, Nicole. Well, you’re certainly insinuating it. You know what? I’m just gonna leave Eric’s phone here and go. Not yet, not until you let me. Please.

Is Eric working at Basic Black or not? Apparently he is. Okay. Then why would I lie to my husband and tell him that I offered Eric a job if I hadn’t? Maybe because you came to see Eric for some other reason. Like what? You know what? I came to give Eric his phone and to get mine, I did not come here to argue with.

Nicole, it’s like, it’s like we’re some sick competition for Eric’s love and affection, even though you are divorced and married to another man. Jah, I’m not competing with you. And like I explained, aside from being married to Eric, we have a long history as friends and you know what? Because of everything he’s been through lately.

Yes. And you’re protective of him. I get it. You said it many. But what I don’t get and what I find insulting is that you being so damn protective of Eric and I’s relationship, it’s, it’s, it’s suggesting that I’m not good for him. Like he needs protection from me. I mean, you understand how that might make me feel.

You get the shoot all set up, hey.

What’s going on?

Of course, I didn’t stab Sunny K over Murderer Abigail Damir. Aside from the fact that I’m not a homicidal maniac, I wasn’t even in town. And those two attacks occurred. You know, the fact that you are listening to some grifter who takes advantage and prays upon people’s vulnerability, you know, this is an insult, it’s an outrage.

Still be able to provide an alibi.

Yes, of course. And not just for September 1st. I’ll need one for the night of June 10th.

and three months ago, I don’t know what I was doing. So was that a yes or no for the alibi?

You know, I’m, I’m, I’m up and on call. I don’t know where I’m practitioning from day to day. I, Well, that could be a problem for you. Yes. I’ll have my secretary. They’ll get my schedule and I will get back to you. Okay? Yeah. The sooner the better.

You don’t want what? I don’t have to pick Rachel not from school for about an hour. You wanna make this, uh, celebration official? What are we waiting for?

Kidding me? Maybe they’ll go away. Are you here? Mm-hmm. . Oh yeah. I doubt it. Yeah.

Oh sweetheart, I am so glad you’re here. Hello. Hello, Mother. How you doing, Nancy? Oh, I am just wonderful and I can’t wait to tell you both the news. Oh, what news is that? Hi, and I are getting married. Yeah, Mom, we know you told us last night, but I didn’t tell you the best part. We’re getting married today.

Well, hey, hey. How’s, how’s son? Uh, he’s sleeping. He had a visitor earlier, so we kind of knocked him out. Who, Uh, his brother Alex. Okay. You haven’t seen Clyde Wesson anywhere around, have you? I have actually Here he was here. It was kind of weird. Did he go into Sonny’s room? No, not that I saw, but he, I mean, he was, was standing here looking in, He said he was here for a drug test.

Why? Why? What’s going on? I don’t think Leo hurt anyone. I think he’s been Clyde Weston this whole time.

Wait, I’m sorry. You think Clyde was the one who stabbed? Sonny? Why? Where’s this coming from? Okay. You remember, remember yesterday when we, we tried to help Sonny recall what had happened to him when he was attacked. He said that he smelled vanilla. Okay. And then after I ran into Craig and Clyde at Horton Town Square, and, and I smelled it vanilla.

Okay? And then at first I thought it was, But then Nancy said that Clyde Weston wears a cologne and his smells like vanilla. Well, it’s him. You’re marrying Clyde today. When did this happen? It was Clyde’s idea. We’re going to be married at City Hall in an hour. , Why? Why are you rushing into this? You have no reason to get married today.

And I don’t have any reason not to. I mean, quiet is the man that I wanna spend the rest of my life with. Why shouldn’t we make it official as soon as possible? And that’s why I’m here. I’d really like the two of you to be my witnesses. So, um, could you go put on something nice? And you too, Brady? Mom, can we talk about this for one minute?

No. Your father is going to be here any minute. Daddy here. Well, I, I ask him to be here and being part of my wedding. I want both of you to be part of it. Let’s him now. Oh, Craig, you got my message. Please, please tell me that you are free to come to my wedding. Um, I, I’m not sure Nancy. See Mom, even Dad thinks you’re rushing into this.

No, it’s not that. It’s just I. I don’t feel like I’m gonna sell between mood. I just got accused of murder.

Hey, hey babe. Can you wake up? Wake up. Time to wake up. Hey Chad, what’s going on? Hey, Chad. Learned something that might, that might. Prove who your attacker was. It wasn’t la No, I, I don’t think so. So, I, I, Sonny, I know your, your memory’s hazy about what happened and, and who stabbed you. But we’re gonna need you to rack your brain one more time.

I mean, I can for a shot. Look, I, I need you do, do you, when you were attacked, do you remember seeing Clyde Weston?

This is a surprise. I think you might have my phone. I do. Um, yeah. I’m sorry. I didn’t notice. Must be a slow crime day. Yeah. Otherwise you would’ve received a barrage of text messages by now. Yep. Pretty slow day. All right. Well, I better be getting back to the office. I’ll see you right home. Yeah, definitely.

So you said you’re all set up for the shoot. We should head downstairs. Is it me or are things a little tense between you and Jay when I walked in? Tense? Yeah, tense. Not just a little but very. Is there something going on between you two?

Well, you’re right. There was some tension between Jada and me. Why? Because I lied to my husband and she called me out. You lied to rape about what? I hadn’t told him that I came by your place the other day. And when he found out, he asked me why. And I felt awkward telling my current husband that I’d been dreaming about my ex-husband.

So I didn’t tell him the truth. And I told him that I offered you a job and I felt bad about lying to him about that. So I raced over to your place to offer you a job. For real. So you offered me a job to make your lie become the truth. Something like that. Yeah. Well, there’s only one thing left for me to do.

I quit.

Sorry to be late. I had to run over and see Eric over at Basic Black. Everything okay? Yeah, no big deal. We had just Swiss uh, phones by mistake. , right? Yeah. So, uh, how’s his first day going? So far, so good. . Good. Good. Glad. Think you’re working out for him. Yeah. Well I didn’t stay too long, guy. I wanted to get to work.

Any news on the case maybe? Yeah. Um, so know you haven’t been here long, but you’ve had some honors with Melinda Trash, can’t you? I have. She seems like a very tenacious prosecutor. Hmm. Yeah. So might say a little too tenacious. Is that a bad thing? Oh, it can be. Yeah. You know, especially if the suspect is, I.

Wait, I’m sorry. Who do we think is innocent? Leo Stark.

So Leo actually accused you of framing him. He did that bastard. That is absurd, huh? You’re absolutely right’s. Totally ridiculous. You’re an upstanding citizen. You’re a doctor for crying out loud. Craig, you wouldn’t hurt anyone much less kill them. That’s not what the commissioner believes. Otherwise, he would not be entertaining.

Leo’s accusations. Wave. He must know better than to believe a word outta Leo’s mouth. Well, apparently he doesn’t, or he wouldn’t have questioned my alibi. This is ridiculous. You, you are no more guilty than Clyde is. He was accused of killing Abigail, but he had an alibi for the night. She was. He was innocent.

You and Clyde have been unfairly accused. Clyde Weston. Yes. Clyde Weston. He wears a cologne that smells like vanilla. I need you to think, Son. Do Do you remember seeing Clyde that night?

I’m trying. I I’m, I’m sorry. It’s just, there’s nothing. Are you sure? Yes. I mean, I wish I could see anyone. I mean, someone in my mind’s side, but there’s just, there’s nothing happen. Okay. Nothing happening yet, so just try, try again. Take your time. Stay calm. Try again.

Okay. Um,

okay, so I’m at the filing cabinet. I hear someone coming. I start to turn and what, what, what, what? Is it exciting? What is it? Do you remember something

you quit? Why you just started? Because you just admitted that it wasn’t a legitimate job offer. I’m not gonna work for basic black just to ease your guilt because you chose to lie to your husband. I’m wonder, go get my things. Wait, wait. Eric, please just listen to me for a second. Okay? Yes. Initially I may have offered you the job to, to ease my guilt, but we, we do need you here.

Trust me, we do badly because thanks to Kristen in her reign of terror, there’s just been a lot of turnover with our staff. But we do need a photographer whose work I can trust, and you are definitely qualified. So it was strange. This my offer may have been, uh, I still want you here. That is if you wanna work here.

Yes, I wanna work here on one condition. From now on, you’re gonna be up front with rave about us working together because the last thing I want is to cause any trouble between you and your husband.

You think Leo Stark is innocent? I said might be, but as time goes on, I am less and less sure that he’s guilty. Even with all the evidence, Well, it’s hardly an ironclad case, and there’s possibility that Leo is being frame. Okay. The problem with Trask, when she settles on a suspect, especially someone who looks reasonably guilty, well, she’s gonna try and push the whole case through without looking back.

So what do you have in mind? Wow. I want you to look at all the evidence that we have. You’re a fresh pair of eyes. Maybe you see something that I missed. Do you think there’s anything to Stark’s accusation? Craig Wesley, are you leaning in that direction? Honestly, I don’t know, but, uh, I am hesitant to lean into anything without giving it a lot more thought.

Now I am damn sure gonna check and see you on Wesley’s alibi. Yes. In the meantime, want you go through all of this with a fine tooth comb. See if there’s any evidence that someone other than Leo committed these crimes.

Sunny, Come on. Did you?

It was him. I saw him. He was Clyde Weston. Yeah, it was just his reflection in a glass of a painting, but it was definitely him, which he said, Clyde was the most stabbed me. Why would he do this to me, not just you? The fact that he stabbed you with was also used on Abigail. Which means he murdered my wife.

You know, it, it seems like the Salem PD has accused everyone except the guilty party. Okay. Craig, I’m sure all of this will go away as soon as you provide RA with those alibis that he wants. I hope you’re right. You’re right. I, I know I’m right. And then all of this will be over, but today is for me. Can we just celebrate me?

I want that for you guys. No one should be happier than you. Thank you, Craig. And I really want you there. I mean, we’re still family.

Is there any way that you can put aside all your worries and just celebrate today with me? Of course. I’ll come. Nancy, I want to be there for you too. Thank you, Craig.

What am I standing around here for? I gotta go get dress. Be like for my own.

That son of a bitch, they had him in custody and they just let him go cuz he had an alibi. That’s right. Yeah. He said he was fishing at the time of Abigail’s murder. And that’s why you accused my dad because Clyde said he was down at the docks and their surveillance footage to prove that. But I know that I saw his reflection.

How can I be,

How’s it going? I might have so, Tell me. I was going over Clyde’s statement about Leo selling him that jewelry and it mentioned his alibi, and since I wasn’t here when he was a suspect, I decided to look through the surveillance footage for myself. You mean the video of Clyde fishing on the docks At the time I abi Gill’s murder.

Yeah. And there’s a problem with it. Did client say where he was gone after the drug test? He did. He, he’s, he’s going to city hall to marry Nancy today. Char what

I’m tell what we learned and where they can find

of. I will be honest with Rafe in the future. I mean, I, I never should have lied to him in the first place. Then why did you, I mean, when you had a dream about a slow cooker raining, sloppy Joe’s all over me, why would you lie to Rafe about something so silly? Because I lied to you too. You lied about what?

I didn’t. Dream about you getting hit with sloppy joe’s.

The dream I had about us was it was a sex dream.

You had a sex dream about me. Wow. Well, I didn’t mean anything. It was just a dream. On interest of full disclosure, the dream I told you I had about you. Mean, I wasn’t just suddenly delivering singing telegrams. Not exactly. I lied to. Why would you lie? Because I had a sex dream about you too. I mean, but it was just a dream.

Right? Yes. It was just, just a dream. Yeah.

I wanna see you downstairs. Mm-hmm. . Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

Well, I guess I should go get ready for your mom’s wedding. See downstairs, half an hour. Dad, wait. You can’t honestly think that this wedding is a good idea, Chloe, I just want your mom to be happy. You have always Clyde Weston Seems like a long shot to me, more than a long shot. It sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

Dad, please, please, you have to help me stop.

Clyde. Oh, Oh, no, it, it’s bad luck. You can’t see me before the wedding . Come on. We’ve already seen each other today. You can take that tradition and throw it out the window. Besides, we are not gonna have any bad luck. Did you pass your drug test the flying colors, baby? Hey, nothing gonna stop us from being the husband and wife and sharing a wonderful life together.

So there’s c. Yep. Fishing on the docks at the time of the murder, except what do you see? I’m stand. Whoa. But there was this split second there where it looked like a different number. I went frame by frame. It’s been scrubbed pretty thoroughly, but where it now reads 8:03 PM where the eight is, there’s a ghost of the number 11.

Which means Clyde doesn’t have an alibi for Abigail’s murder. After all,

you want any more? No, I’m good. No you’re not.

I Western still out there. Yeah, not for long, hopefully. But what if he comes back to finish me off?

If he was trying to frame Leo, it would not make any sense for him to go after you again. While Leo’s still locked up. You’re right. Right. You’re right. Yeah. You’re safe. You’re safe here. I’m gonna be here. I’m not. I’m not letting anything else happen to you, but this isn’t just about me.

And then do you think Clyde really could have killed that? Chad thinks so. And I’ll bet right now he is doing his damnest to convince the cops of that.

[ Upbeat music]

Taylor: Oh, my timing is off.

Steffy: Oh, mom.

Taylor: I get you when you guys are in the middle of kissing. And this time you’re breaking apart. So,

Steffy: No, no– I– ha. Ha. You’re so funny.

Finn: I have to say, it is probably hard not to… interrupt us kissing.

Taylor: I know the struggle is real. I see it. And it makes me so happy for both of you.

Steffy: I think I know what would make you happier. If, like, dad were here with you, especially in this cute number. It’s really amazing. Why is it, like, too early to parent trap?

Taylor: You know, speaking of parent trapping. Brooke came by very heated and told me what you did. Steffy, I know– I know that you have the best intentions. But hey, please don’t ever do anything shady like that again.

Steffy: Shady? Me? I did dad a favor. I saved him from being summoned back to brooke’s house. You know he’d rather be here, mom.

Thomas: Bowling? That’s what you want to do this week? Because I’m always throwing gutter balls. No. What? Ah, there it is.

Douglas: Just like you say, you just got to keep practicing, dad.

Thomas: You want the apple, huh?

Douglas: I want the apple.

Thomas: Here you go. Now, here you go. Take it. Take it.

Douglas: Oh, grandma.

Brooke: Douglas. Oh, so good to see you. Couldn’t you use something a little safer?

Thomas: I’ve been cutting apples like this my whole life, brooke. It’s all right.

Brooke: Well, I’m sure eric has something in the kitchen.

Thomas: Hey, you know what? No big deal. Anyway, what’s going on?

Brooke: Well, I wanted to stop by and see douglas. I understand that you’ve been letting hope come by an awful lot.

Thomas: She’s always welcome here.

Brooke: Mm hmm. Yeah. Well, I haven’t seen my grandson in a long time.

Douglas: Hey, you want to come bowling with us on the weekend?

Thomas: Hey, you know what? I think that brooke is probably always busy. She’s got a slam packed schedule, so. Ah, you know what? Why don’t you go out and see donna? She said she’d look after you while I was at work.

Douglas: Um, good seeing you, grandma.

Brooke: Good seeing you, honey. See you soon, okay?

Douglas: Yeah.

Thomas: Have fun. Apple?

Brooke: No, thanks.

Thomas: Okay.

Brooke: We need to talk.

Thomas: What about? You know what? I’ve been cutting apples like that my entire life, so.

Brooke: Oh, no, no, not that. We need to talk about douglas coming home.

Thomas: Douglas is already home, brooke.

Brooke: He hasn’t been at his other home for a very long time. A home where he feels safe. And hope certainly doesn’t play with knives.

Thomas: Will you let that go?

Brooke: No, I won’T. Not if you expect him to be here with you.

Thomas: Okay, fine. I will use a peeler next time.

Brooke: Look, don’t make fun, okay? Because I will always watch out for douglas. I will always protect him.

Thomas: That’s not your job, brooke. I can protect my son. Now, if that’s all.

Brooke: No, that’s not all. Hope told me that you knew what steffy did the other night, intercepting my phone call to ridge.

Thomas: I was there. Yeah.

Brooke: Yeah. Well, that’s enough. No more attack on my marriage. By you, your mother, steffy. Just stay out of it. None of you can sabotage my relationship with ridge.

[ Taylor exasperated sigh ]

Taylor: If it’s meant to be, it will happen.

Steffy: Look how things are turning around for our family. The next logical move is dad finally coming to his senses and getting back with you.

Taylor: Well, I don’t know how logical it is. But just to shut you up, I’m going to say, “I’ll buy it.”

Steffy: Good. Great.

Ridge: What are you buying? Don’t buy anything. Whatever it is, don’t buy fuzzy bears. Because I tried that once, and I don’t want to compete with you.

Taylor: Oh, god. I don’t know if I can compete with such fuzzy cuteness. And the bears are cute, too, huh?

Steffy: They’re adorable, dad.

Finn: Kelly is going to flip out, in a good way.

Ridge: Where are the kids?

Steffy: Out with amelia. But if you wait around, you could give it to them. We could do another, like, family dinner.

Ridge: Yeah, we could do that. Let me just check with brooke. Yeah, you know, but my phone doesn’t seem to work here.

Steffy: Oh, she told you about that?

Ridge: You knew she was going to tell me about it.

Steffy: Yeah. I just felt it was like the right moment for all of us to be together. I hope you’re not mad.

Ridge: No. If you want to be my secretary, you can go ahead and answer my phone. But if you don’t, then please let me do it.

Steffy: I get it. I completely get it. I thought it was just a really nice, you know, dinner we were having. And we were all laughing and really enjoying each other’s company. And you two were, like reconnecting. I hope we have more nights like that. I really do. Life… doesn’t stop for diabetes.

Thomas: Okay. Look, brooke. You are kind of like spiraling right now, so you need to ease up on the dramatics. There’s no reason to overreact about a phone call.

Brooke: It was completely inappropriate for steffy to interfere.

Thomas: Was there some sort of emergency? A real reason for interrupting our entire family?

Brooke: No. I don’t need an emergency to talk to my own husband.& I was planning a very special evening for us.

Thomas: Oh, special evening. It have to do with a red teddy and some giggling. You know what? He has seen that so many times, it’s probably just boring.

Brooke: Doesn’t matter what I had planned. The fact is, steffy shouldn’t have intercepted my phone call to my husband.

Thomas: Okay. Maybe. I mean… is that really the reason why you’re hounding me about this?

Brooke: No. I don’t want to argue with you, thomas. I don’T. I just want you to respect my marriage with your father. And it’s time for douglas to come home. He needs to get back into his routine.

Thomas: He has a routine, right here.

Brooke: Well, this is like an extended sleepover, and it needs to end. He has to come home.

Thomas: Says who? You? Look, this is between hope and me. So, stay out of it. I know that it’s going to be really, really, really hard for you. But please, stay out of our lives.

Ridge: I enjoyed the other night and we’ll do it again. If it doesn’t happen tonight, we’ll find some other time. I promise.

Steffy: And I promise not to confiscate any phones.

Ridge: Good. What was I doing when you were talking to brooke anyway? Where was I?

Steffy: You and finn– I think you guys were having like a– I don’t know. Some kind of, like dad competition. Dad joke competition.

Finn: Yeah.

Steffy: You guys were laughing. And mom, you were like, groaning. That’s exactly what was happening.

Taylor: Yes, yes. And I have to say, finn won fair and square.

Finn: Thank you.

Ridge: Really though?

Taylor: Yeah.

Ridge: Come on.

Taylor: Yes, he did. The bubbles joke? Come on.

Ridge: All right. All right.

Steffy: Do you see them looking at each other?

Finn: Same as when you were young.

Steffy: Exactly.

Ridge: What look is that?

Steffy: As if there’s nowhere else you’d rather be. This is exactly what thomas and I wanted. Our family together. The forresters winning. And it really does feel like we are winning. Thomas is having real time with douglas. My husband is back, and that is such a miracle. And you two are getting closer. We’ve had so much time apart. I just feel this genuine connection. This feeling right now. We could feel it every single day. I can’t help but repeat myself because I see it. You two belong together. Dad just come home. Go back to mom. I’m jonathan lawson

Brooke: So, you expect me to sit back and say nothing about what you’re doing to my daughter and my grandson? No.

Thomas: What am I doing besides stepping up and providing a good, solid home for my son?

Brooke: You are using him.

Thomas: How? Like, for what purpose?

Brooke: To create problems for ridge and me.

Thomas: Okay. This– this may be really hard for you to understand, brooke. But me stepping up and being a great father to my son, reconnecting with him, it’s not about you.

Brooke: Okay, wait. So, you think you’re the influence that douglas needs? I mean, thomas, are you going to just pretend you haven’t had issues in the past?

Thomas: Yeah, you know what? I have had issues. I have. And I think I’ve worked through them. But if I had tons of issues, you might want to look in the mirror to see where they came from.

Brooke: Oh, wow. So now you’re blaming me for all the terrible things that you’ve done.

Thomas: You talk about influence on a child. I think about you and how you were always lurking around my entire family and what you did, hurting my grandmother and my mother. This oversexed, gold digger just bulldozing her way through my entire family. My father, my grandfather, my uncle. And you know what? I heard– I heard about the things that you said behind my back. I know what you said. You think that doesn’t affect a child? It does.

Brooke: Okay. So, me stepping in as your stepmother, when your mom was gone, that gives you reason for all those bad mistakes and decisions you made your entire life. No, I don’t think so.

Thomas: This is just classic you. Not taking any responsibility. Of course, you wouldn’t take responsibility. You know, that doesn’t really matter to me, because steffy and I, we’re moving past this whole thing.

Brooke: Oh. Well, that is a relief.

Thomas: We’re putting it behind us because the forrester’s are finally rising up. Yes, brooke, I am talking about my mother and father. Their time together has finally come.

Ridge: You want the family back together? I know. I know how much that would mean to you.

Steffy: You know what it would mean to you? The difference it would make for you and for mom?

Ridge: Are you– I see your mother and I– and I see your husband. And these are two people who have dedicated their lives to helping others. And– and– I mean, that’s a choice, right? That’s a choice you make in your life. And I look at my choices and my life. Honestly… I– as long as I can remember, I’ve been selfish. Everything I did still is selfish.

Taylor: Ridge, you don’t– you don’t need to apologize.

Ridge: I’m not. I don’t– I don’t know– I don’t know if– um, I wish thomas was here right now because I have to say this. I have to say to you and I almost have to say it so I can hear it. I’ve made bad choices all my life. And they’ve affected my kids, especially when they were younger. And now… I’m standing in your house and I look at this guy. This amazing person, your husband. Doesn’t mean he’s amazing because he saves people. Yes, that’s part of it. But the amazing thing is you come home.

[ Ridge exhaling ] Oh. You– you take care of your family. And your kids are going to grow up knowing what a father and what a husband should look like, and that’s important.

Finn: Thanks, ridge. That means a lot. And you’re right. I will always come home to steffy and the kids.

Ridge: I know. That’s my point. That’s what I’m saying. Of course, you’ll come home because you’re going to take care of these guys. You are going to take care of your family. I mean, you’re not going to be sidetracked by some– you’re not going to be– you’re the– the father, the husband that I should have been.

Steffy: Dad, you did the best you could.

Ridge: The best I could, steffy. That doesn’t compare to what you deserve. Both of you. I’m sorry. Hi, I’m karen.

Taylor: You know, it’s a shame steffy and finn had to go to work.

Ridge: You know, I think steffy made up that meeting so we could be alone.

Taylor: You think?

Ridge: I meant what I said earlier about bad choices. I could have been a better dad. Definitely could have been a better husband.

Taylor: Well, hindsight really is 20/20, isn’t it? It never does any good to hold on to feelings of guilt and shame about the past. I mean, we all do it but–

Ridge: Yeah. What I do know is that when you came back all those years ago, that was it. That was our time to be together as a family. The five of us. It’s what thomas wanted. Steffy. Phoebe. But I couldn’t give it to them. I had to walk away from them. I turned my back on you and a beautiful family.

Taylor: But, it’s all being healed now.

Ridge: Really?

Taylor: Yeah. Yeah, because– because time heals all– most wounds.

Ridge: Huh.

Taylor: Listen. You know, of course our marriage breaking up left an imprint on our children. Of course, it did. Ridge, they were so young, and they didn’t even have the emotional capacity to process what was happening. So, they– they learned to cope. Steffy– steffy became the strong one. She doesn’t want anyone to do anything for her because she doesn’t want to risk being let down. And phoebe, all she wanted was love and family. And thomas. Thomas was the sensitive one, for sure. And he’s the one who got lost. It affected him the most.

Ridge: Because of me.

Taylor: No, ridge.

Ridge: Yes, because of me.

Taylor: Because of all the confusion. So much confusion. That the past is just a trail we leave behind. It doesn’t– just tells us where we’ve been. It doesn’t tell us where we’re going. That’s what now is for, right now. And yeah, we can– we can– we can imagine the future wisely. We can– we can see what it is that we want to create, what we desire, what makes us feel good. How we want to love. And be loved back. Kind of like right now. Right now.

Brooke: Even if you’re right and you’re not. But let’s just say that ridge and taylor do get together. It’s not like I’m going to be out of your life for good. I have forrester children.

Thomas: You’re right. And you did your best to ruin their lives, too. I mean, gosh, I only had to spend like part time with you. But them, it was like full time. Rick, rj, bridget. I mean, it’s kind of interesting actually, because all of them decided to leave los angeles, almost like they’re getting away from you.

Brooke: How dare you?

Thomas: It was hope though. She’s the only one who keeps justifying all the things that you have done. But you know what? I feel for her. Because she actually had to spend her entire childhood with you.

Brooke: Yeah. Well, then how did she turn out to be such a good person and somebody that you could trust with your child?

Thomas: Dumb luck, recessive gene kicking in, who knows?

Brooke: It’s really not fair that you would blame me for all of your bad behavior.

Thomas: I just wonder what it would have been like if I had the chance, the opportunity to grow up without you as a mother.

Brooke: So, because of my influence, you turned into the kind of person that would lie about a baby being dead or think that kidnapping is a courtship. And I’m not even going to mention the mannequin. To think about what you put my daughter through. And you really wonder why I’m so worried that douglas is here alone with you.

Thomas: Worry all you want, brooke. I don’t really care what you think. And soon my dad won’t either.

Brooke: No, that’s not true.

Thomas: You know, my mother is a thousand times the woman that you are. And her and my father, they are getting closer because they’re meant to be. I mean, that kiss in monaco. That was meant to happen. A day is coming and soon will be, when your reign and your grip over my father and my family ends. Mark my words, brooke, they will end.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Diane: I am warning you, phyllis. Back off.

Phyllis: You’re warning me? Really? Diane, this is one of those teachable moments. Really, it’s teachable. I mean, “back off.” It doesn’t really have a lot of heat. “Back off or…” is really a threat. So you want to try it again?

Diane: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Back off!

Jack: Diane. I can hear you all the way down the hall. What is going on here?

Phyllis: Diane seems to be reconnecting with her authentic self.

Diane: No, I’m sorry, jack. I just — things got a little heated, and —

Jack: Well, try to cool things down, would you? Kyle and summer just laid down the law. They made very clear boundaries about this kind of thing. If they’d walked in on this instead of me, you two would be out of a job right now.

Tessa: [ Sighs ] Do you really think I can get all of this done by tonight?

Mariah: Oh, yeah, I have no doubt. We’re going to finalize everything when I see noah later.

Tessa: Okay.

Mariah: [ Chuckles ]

Summer: Hate it. Sad. Help me.

Kyle: These are, um —

Summer: Don’t even say it.

Kyle: What are we going to do?

Tessa: Uh, this was not part of the plan.

Mariah: It’s okay. It’s fine, alright?

Tessa: This could ruin everything.

Mariah: We’re just going to go in there, you’re going to smile that gorgeous smile, pretend like it’s any other day. We’re just here getting coffee. No one’s going to suspect a thing, alright?

Traci: [ Gasps ] Oh. Oh. [ Chuckling ] Allie. Oh, my god. What are you doing here?

[ Both chuckle ]

Allie: Terrifying you, apparently.

Traci: No, no, no, no. I’m fine. I mean, my tablet is still dry, and my tea is still wet, so I’m good, but what about you?

Allie: I’m doing okay. Why do you ask?

Traci: Well, because I’m used to having this couple of hours to myself in here. You know, I can spread out and I can work and I can procrastinate to my heart’s content because all of you are at jabot.

Allie: Working on anything interesting?

Traci: Yes, as a matter of fact, I am. It is about this brilliant scientist who loves being in the laboratory until one afternoon she’s home instead of at work.

Allie: Everything’s fine, traci.

Traci: [ Chuckles ] Well, honey, I know that it must be grueling doing an internship. I know that, you know, you have to do all this grunt work, and you don’t get very much, I don’t know, recognition or credit for what you do.

Allie: You know, actually, ashley is making sure I get plenty of special projects and recognition. I love it there.

Traci: Okay, um… even with phyllis and diane there, too? I mean, I know they’re in a different division than you are, but you’re all still in the same building.

Allie: I try to keep my head down and just do the best job that I can.

Traci: Well, that must be difficult, especially with a couple of chaos junkies like phyllis and diane, I know…

Allie: Oh, traci, stop.

Traci: …Dragging you into their cage matches.

Allie: Yes, it’s true.

Traci: And that’s me being nice. They are like a chemical reaction.

Allie: With two highly combustible compounds?

Traci: [ Chuckles ] Yeah. They’re a handful on a good day, but put them together, something is bound to explode.

Diane: I hope you’ll accept my apology for my outburst. Excuse me.

Jack: Phyllis —

Phyllis: I didn’t do anything, jack. I was just — I was just doing my job.

Jack: I can see it’s killing you not to gloat. I won’t keep you from your glee any longer. Just be happy that summer and kyle didn’t see this.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ]

Jack: You’re not off the hook, by the way.

Allie: Yes, diane and phyllis, they are a handful.

[ Both chuckle ] But they have actually not been a problem for me.

Traci: I am so glad to hear that.

Allie: Yeah, they have given me a wide berth ever since i stood up to them and made clear that I am nobody’s pawn.

Traci: Well, good. It is really important that you set boundaries. Good for you.

Allie: Thank you.

Traci: And you are lucky that they don’t work in the lab.

[ Both chuckle ]

Allie: You know, if I time my days just right, I don’t have to run into either of them.

[ Both laugh ] But I do love it there. Ah. With chemicals, you know, you know exactly what they’ll do in a given situation.

Traci: Yeah, they’re a lot easier to predict than most people, aren’t they? Ashley used to always find it so peaceful to work in the lab.

Allie: It really is. And, my gosh, ashley, she is such a legend. I mean, the things that she’s been able to accomplish. And working at the place where my dad found so much joy at, it’S… oh, it’s — it’s [Chuckles] More than I could have dreamed of.

Traci: Alright, I’m just going to have to come out and ask you.

Allie: Yeah?

Traci: If you are loving the laboratory life so much, why aren’t you there instead of here today?

[ Both chuckle ]

Allie: Things and reasons I just — I just can’t tell you about, not just yet, traci.

Mariah: Come on. Just be nonchalant.

Tessa: I can’t be nonchalant when they’re literally ripping apart photos of me from the marchetti photo shoot. I am so chalant right now.

Mariah: It’s going to be fine.

Tessa: Hi.

Kyle: Hi.

Mariah: Hi, guys.

Tessa: So was my modeling photo shoot just, like, a total waste of time? I know it took me a while to warm up, but I thought I finally got the hang of it.

Kyle: What is she talking about?

Tessa: Well, I saw you looking at the photos and things you were saying.

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

[ Both chuckle ] We’re not looking at the marchetti photo shoot.

Summer: Which was fantastic, by the way. But also problematic in another way. I could not choose which photos to use for the layout. They were all so good.

Tessa: You really mean that?

Mariah: She wouldn’t believe me. They loved you. They’re calling you marchetti’s brightest star.

Tessa: Oh, stop. Seriously.

Mariah: See? I told you she wouldn’t believe me.

Tessa: She’s biased.

Mariah: Okay, well, maybe the two of you can talk some sense into her.

Summer: Tessa, your smile alone could sell a million dresses.

Tessa: Thank you so much for saying that and for your support. I mean, you guys know I’ve never done anything like this before, and I didn’t want to let you down.

Summer: You could never.

Mariah: So what were you guys looking at that was so disappointing?

Kyle: We were looking at different concepts for our vow renewal.

Mariah: What? Oh, my god. You’re doing what now?

Summer: We are getting married again — in town, this time, in front of all of our family and friends.

Mariah: Wow. [ Chuckles ]

Tessa: Aww, what a sweet and romantic idea. I love it.

Kyle: But we are having a difficult time trying to find the perfect theme.

Summer: You know what i think? I think we should step back and let it come to us.

Kyle: That’s a great idea.

Summer: Let’s turn our attention to our gorgeous model. Tessa, you killed it.

Tessa: Aww, thank you so much. But, I mean, I couldn’t have done it without you. I mean, your idea for the brand? I mean, you’re making it more fabulous than it already was.

Summer: Aww.

Kyle: Our wives are a mutual admiration society. Who could have predicted it?

[ Laughter ]

Mariah: Alright, I want to see these ideas.

Summer: Oh, yeah, it’s not…

Diane: [ Sighs ]

[ Sniffles ]

[ Sighs ] Whatever it is you tracked me down to say, it’s, uh — it’s not necessary. I am — I am already beating myself up for what you overheard. I — I really screwed up, jack.

[ Sighs ]

Jack: I’m not going to disagree with you.

Diane: I’ve just — I’ve just been hiding my feelings inside and just stuffing them down for so long, and then today just really pushed me. I mean, first I had this uncomfortable, borderline threatening conversation with victor, and then, you know, yet another run-in with phyllis. I’m not — I’m not — I’m not trying to make excuses. I’m just trying to explain.

[ Sniffles ] And for all I know, you know, it cost me a job with my son, a chance to be closer to him.

[ Sniffles, sighs ] I just hate it when I let people like victor and phyllis get to me. But what I hate most of all is that I brought this on myself.

[ Sighs ]

[ Sniffles ]

Jack: Wait, wait, wait. Who are you calling now?

Diane: [ Sighs ] Kyle. He deserves to know the truth. No matter who you are,

[ Indistinct conversation ]

Noah: Hey.

Mariah: Hey, noah.

Tessa: Hi. Hi.

Kyle: Good to see you, man.

Noah: Yeah, is this a private conversation, or can anyone jump in?

Summer: No, we were just talking about tessa’s photo shoot the other day.

Noah: Oh, are you saying it was a hit because of all the practice we got making the album cover?

Tessa: Yeah, something like that.

Kyle: And celebrating our impending wedding redo.

Noah: What? You guys are getting married again?

Summer: We are — here this time so that everyone can come and see what true love looks like.

Noah: Ah. Sounds cool. Maybe I’ll be there.

Summer: Maybe you’ll be invited.

Noah: No, seriously, though. Congratulations, you two. I’m happy for you.

Kyle: Hey, thanks.

Summer: Will you be bringing anyone? Like, say, allie perhaps?

Noah: Yeah. Yeah, about that, I actually want to talk to you two about that if you have time.

Mariah: Uh, yeah, of course. We can do that now.

Noah: Yeah.

Mariah: Okay. Sorry to run off like this, guys, but see you later.

Noah: Bye.

Tessa: Well, good luck with the planning and everything.

Kyle: Huh.

Summer: That was weird.

Kyle: 100%.

Summer: I mean, any relationship advice I could give is just as valuable as mariah’S. I mean, are we not as blissfully happy as there are?

Kyle: We left bliss in the rearview. We are on our way to “no one’s ever been this happy” level of happy.

Summer: Yeah. So why them and not us?

Kyle: Maybe he knows we need to focus on the details of our vow renewal. Come on what about this one?

Allie: Traci, I promise I am not doing anything wrong.

Traci: Oh, that’s a relief.

Allie: And — and I did not call in sick. I’m very careful about getting my hours in at jabot.

Traci: I’m sure that you’re going above and beyond, but let’s see. This mystery of yours has got my curiosity piqued. We’ve got a scientist who isn’t at the lab assigned to keep her auntie in the dark. I don’t know. I think I’m going to need more. How much longer am I going to have to wait? I need spoilers.

Allie: And I wish I can tell you, but unfortunately, this just isn’t my secret to tell.

Traci: Okay, whose secret is it?

Allie: Noah will be here soon, and I am sure we’ll both find out more.

Traci: Noah? Now, that is interesting.

Allie: Wait, wait. What’s so interesting about noah? The way you’re saying that is making me a little nervous.

Traci: Oh, no, no. I’m just so delighted things are going so well for you, honey, both at the office and outside of work. I knew you would find your way.

Allie: Well, I couldn’t have done it if I hadn’t gotten some sage advice.

Traci: From your favorite auntie, I suppose.

Allie: Oh, yes. She told me that I, uh — I needed to give myself permission to be happy. And I have. So thank you again, traci, for more than just the advice. It feels really great to have family again.

Diane: I mean, how do I even begin to tell my son what an idiot I was? Having a fight with phyllis in the office when I knew better? I just — I just hope he can forgive me.

Jack: Before you make that call, you should know I have no intention of telling kyle about this run-in with phyllis.

Diane: Why would you protect me?

Jack: I’m not protecting you. I’m protecting myself. Look, this is between kyle and summer and phyllis and you. I can’t be the one to instigate issues at marchetti.

Diane: Well, I respect that, and I — I also feel terrible that you had to witness my meltdown.

Jack: Well, you were certainly pretty careless about anyone and everyone who works with you hearing you.

Diane: Yeah, so you’re not the only one. Another reason that I should come clean.

Jack: Okay, I don’t think anyone was nearby.

Diane: [ Sighs ] It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter. I mean, even if you carried the secret of my fight with phyllis to the grave, I would know, and that lie of omission would impact my interactions with my son. That’s why I have to be honest with kyle. It’s the only way our relationship can work. So I am… I’m going to tell him how horribly I behaved, and then, um, he can decide how to deal with it.

Kyle: None of these options are speaking to me.

Summer: Maybe we’re not listening hard enough.

Kyle: Oh, really?

Summer: Yeah, sometimes you have to lean in. Shh.

Kyle: What’s the muse saying?

Summer: We need more choices. Mom, hi. Is everything alright?

Phyllis: Something has happened.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Kyle: It’s my mom. Girls trip.

Allie: I wonder what’s keeping noah.

[ Knock on door ]

Traci: Oh, I think we’re about to find out.

[ Chuckles ]

Mariah: Hi, allie.

Allie: Hi, mariah. Hey, tessa.

Tessa: Hey.

Noah: Hey, babe. Alright, I am sorry that we’re late. I can explain everything. I ran into the two people who could’ve —

Traci: [ Clears throat ] Hi.

Noah: Traci, hi. Uh, what does she know?

Allie: Uh, I hinted something was up, but I wasn’t sure how much to tell.

Traci: Okay, so whatever you’re planning, I’ll leave you to it.

Noah: No, no, no. Stay. I’m actually really glad you’re here, and I hope that your evening is free.

Traci: I have nothing on the calendar.

Noah: Good.

Tessa: Because we planned a surprise.

Mariah: For summer and kyle.

Noah: And we can really use your help.

Traci: [ Chuckles ]

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Jack: Phyllis, I didn’t know you would be here, as well. I —

Diane: Seriously? I assume you wasted no time in sharing with them what happened earlier.

Phyllis: Oh, well, I felt they had the right to know.

Diane: Yeah, I’m glad you told them, because honesty is so important. That’s why I told kyle and summer to meet me here so that I could own up to what happened.

Phyllis: Well, I mean, you’re just saying that because you were caught.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Kyle: Is that true, mom?

Jack: I was with her before the phone call. She is very remorseful.

Diane: Thank you, jack, but what I did was indefensible. My behavior was completely out of line, and I — I am truly sorry. After sharing my commitment to family harmony and assuring you both that my priorities were in the right place, I lost my temper. It was unprofessional, it was uncalled for, and I am truly sorry.

Phyllis: Wow. Is this where I applaud? I mean, because this performance is truly remarkable.

Diane: I’m not going to make some last-ditch plea to try and save my job. You know, a job that I have grown to love because working with you two has been a dream. But you made it painfully clear that there would be zero tolerance for this kind of thing, so I am going to save both of you the discomfort and officially resign.

Traci: Okay, I love a good mystery just like the next person, but I’m going to need a little bit more information before I sign on to this plan of yours.

Allie: Well, I promise noah’s idea is exciting and fun.

Noah: Even if it is coming together at the last minute.

Mariah: Tonight was the only night that worked.

Traci: Okay, so I think I’m getting this. This is about kyle and summer, but you can’t possibly be surprising them with their vow-renewal ceremony, because I think I just successfully talked kyle out of keeping it a surprise from summer.

Noah: It’s a surprise pre-vow-renewal party.

[ Laughter ]

Allie: At noah’s new club.

Tessa: Tonight.

Traci: Oh, my gosh. I love it. And I know kyle and summer are going to love it, too. What a great idea to christen your club. So what can I do to help?

Noah: How do you feel about being a decoy? We could really use someone to lure the guests of honor into the club.

Traci: I can do that.

Noah: I could also use your advice on something.

Traci: What’s that?

Noah: We’re having a little bit of a guest-list quandary. Obviously, my dad and phyllis have to be there and you and jack.

Tessa: But should we include diane?

Mariah: Or are we just asking for trouble putting those two in a room together with a throwable cake?

Phyllis: I, for one, would like to congratulate diane for doing the right thing, stepping down after that very, very embarrassing outburst. I’d like to congratulate you for doing the very noble, sensible thing.

Kyle: Are you sure this is what you want to do, mom? You’re willing to step down?

Diane: I made a promise. I agreed to your terms, and I violated them. How could you ever trust me again if I didn’t keep my word?

Phyllis: Yeah.

Phyllis: Why are you nodding to him? What’s going on?

Summer: Mom. Those terms we agreed on?

Kyle: We made it clear that both of you would be terminated from marchetti if there were any more infractions, and we meant it.

Summer: Diane resigned because of an argument with you.

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ] What? What, you — you both don’t want me to resign, as well.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ] Ubrelvy helps u fight migraine attacks.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Traci: Phyllis and diane. Well, they would definitely cause a rift in the time-space continuum considering how much chaos they generate. But wouldn’t they have to be on their best behavior because this is about their kids? Wouldn’t they?

Allie: Yeah, I agree with traci. Why would kyle and summer’s mothers cause trouble at a celebration of their love for each other?

Mariah: Because this is phyllis and diane, and history has proven that that’s just what happens when they’re in each other’s orbit. So why risk it?

Tessa: Because if only one of them is invited, they’ll probably take it very personally.

Mariah: So maybe we shouldn’t invite either of them.

Allie: Wait, no moms at all?

Tessa: Well, of course they’d be at the ceremony.

Noah: No, seems weird and wrong. I know phyllis and diane bring out the worst in each other, but they love their kids.

Tessa: But maybe the best gift that we can give summer and kyle is a night of love and support without all the drama.

Allie: I know I’m new here, but what if there’s another option, one that doesn’t exclude phyllis or diane?

Phyllis: What? I’m not at fault. She lost her mind. I didn’t provoke her.

Summer: We’re aware of what happened, mom.

Phyllis: She’s resigning because she knows she did the wrong thing. I shouldn’t have to resign, too.

Summer: I guess I need to remind you of the lunch that we just had where we notified you and diane that it wouldn’t matter who said or did what to whom, that you would both be out.

Phyllis: Okay, wait a second. So when I came to you in good faith about what happened, I was just sealing my fate?

Diane: Nobody likes a tattletale.

Kyle: What was that?

Diane: Oh, I was just saying that you made the terms of our employment crystal clear.

Kyle: Even more reason we appreciate you being honest. You knew the cost, but you did the right thing anyway.

Phyllis: Okay, well, that’s it?

Diane: You know, I guess phyllis just didn’t grasp the concept of what you had said, but I respect that when you and summer say something as senior executives at marchetti, that you mean it.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness. Okay, so, listen, I have the utmost respect for both of you because you’re fair and you’re both very, very smart. And I would think you wouldn’t let some ridiculous, arbitrary rule stop you from doing the right thing.

Kyle: Summer and I are sorry to see you go. Both of you were assets to the company, but it seems as if this was inevitable.

Summer: We’ll miss seeing you around the office.

Phyllis: Okay. Thank you for the opportunity. It was a great time. Thank you.

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Diane: Well, I — I hope we can all get together for dinner at some point.

Jack: [ Groans ] I know that wasn’t easy for you. I have to ask. Were you just teaching your mothers a lesson, or is marchetti saying goodbye to them forever?

Kyle: I don’t think learning to play nice is even a possibility for those two at this point.

Summer: You know what the worst part about this is? They were both doing really great work, and my mom is a perfect fit at marchetti home, and…

Jack: Can I perhaps offer a suggestion?

Summer: Anything. Please.

Jack: Let them stew in this for a while, and then offer them one final one last chance.

Mariah: I want to be optimistic. I do, okay? But I have to be realistic. And diane and phyllis in a room together, it’s just going to be total war.

Noah: Alright, well, I think we should hear allie out.

Traci: I agree. What’s your plan, honey? One mom and then the next.

Tessa: Oh, like staggering their arrival?

Allie: Yes, precisely. We have one mom spend time with the happy couple, they give a toast, they have fun, and then all we have to make sure we do is get her to be gone before the next one arrives.

Noah: Genius. I love it.

Traci: This plan might actually work.

Mariah: Yeah, it definitely has potential. You know, we just have to make sure that there is no overlap ’cause then everything will fall apart.

Tessa: If anyone can pull it off, we can.

Noah: Alright, we need to set the next phase of this plan in motion.

Allie: Operation let’s get everyone there on time. Okay, suggestions?

Traci: Um, I think you should ask diane to be there first. I think she’ll be easier to get out of the room. Easier than phyllis.

Mariah: Well, perfect. I’ll escort kyle and diane to the venue.

Noah: And I’ll take care of summer and my dad.

Traci: I can get jack there.

Tessa: And allie and I will make sure that the club is ready to rock.

Traci: [ Chuckles ] Alright, everybody have their assignments?

Noah: Alright, let’s give kyle and summer a night they’ll never forget.

Summer: You’re seriously advocating giving our moms one more last chance?

Kyle: We’ll take that under advisement.

Summer: How many more last chances do they deserve anyway?

Jack: I will leave that decision in your very capable hands.

[ Cellphone pings ] That’s traci. She wants to see me. Um, I’ll see you both later.

Kyle: Yeah, go. We’ve got this under control. What do you think?

Summer: I think your father’s a pushover. Why should we give our moms another chance to break our hearts?

Kyle: Maybe we scared them straight, and they’re filled with remorse.

Summer: Yeah, they’re sorry. They’re sorry that they’re suffering any consequences. This is the only way they’re going to learn, kyle. We have to be firm.

Kyle: I hear what you’re saying, but is it worth the collateral damage to marchetti just to prove a point?

Summer: On the other hand, if we let them off the hook now, they may never take anything we have to say seriously again.

Kyle: Okay, let’s see what they’ve been up to since they left. If they’re carefully crafting apology letters, we can talk. If they’re planning on waging war, they’re out of chances.

Summer: Okay. I’m on board. Just hope for the best.

Summer: [ Sighs ] I’m sorry about how that went down.

Phyllis: You are my daughter. You’re supposed to be on my side.

Summer: You’re not being fair. I am always on your side.

Phyllis: No, you’re not. You fired me because of something diane did. She lost her mind, summer. She lost her mind. Doesn’t seem to matter. I mean, she can’t get over her hatred for me. She’s constantly playing mind games, but I’m paying the price.

Summer: We laid out the zero-tolerance rules less than 24 hours ago.

Phyllis: Yep. It doesn’t matter. Her hatred for me goes back decades. No rule is going to change that.

Summer: I know. Mom, I’ve heard all of your stories about diane. And you know what? I believe them. I understand why you feel the way you do about diane, but you gave me your word that you would keep the peace.

Phyllis: I did keep the peace. Diane didn’T. I mean, honestly, this — this rule is ridiculous, summer. It’s ridiculous. One mom is bad, and then the other one should get fired, too. I mean, come on.

Summer: It’s the behavior that’s unacceptable.

Phyllis: It’s diane’s behavior that’s unacceptable.

Summer: Mom, be honest with yourself. If you wanted to keep the peace, you would have quashed the conflict. You could’ve ignored her, you could’ve walked away, but you didn’T.

Phyllis: Gandhi wouldn’t be able to walk away from diane.

Summer: But must you accept every invitation for a fight? Mom, as much as I love you, and I do love you, and as much as I sympathize with what you’re going through, my husband and I are trying to run a major fashion company. We’re dealing with time differences, creative differences, and now, every single day, it seems like, we’re dealing with issues with our moms that are distracting us. And I’m not even going to talk about that mysterious file that allegedly showed up on diane’s computer.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness. And there it is. You just mentioned it.

Summer: Diabolical plot or not, it’s the fact that I had to take time out of my day to deal with it. That is the problem. Mom, I need you to see my perspective on this, to focus on the bigger picture here, please.

[ Cellphone pings ]

[ Sighs ]

Phyllis: Is that a fashion emergency? Do you need my help?

Summer: No, it’s — it’s noah. He wants me to meet him at the grand phoenix.

Phyllis: What’s going on?

Summer: I don’t know. Maybe something to do with the club? I should go.

Phyllis: Okay, well, I’ll go with you. We can finish our discussion.

Summer: You know what, mom? I think we should sleep on this, talk of the morning.

Phyllis: Okay.

Summer: Love you.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Are you here to get me to hand over my company credit card?

Kyle: No. I came to tell you I’m proud of you.

Diane: Proud? That’s not a word that comes to mind when speaking about what I did.

Kyle: Well, we can all agree you were in the wrong, but I am still proud that you made the right decision afterwards.

Diane: Resigning.

Kyle: Yeah.

Diane: Yeah, what choice did I have? You know, part of my therapy has been learning to own my actions. I just… I just hope this doesn’t change the way you see me or affect my relationship with harrison.

Kyle: Hey, it was business, nothing more. And it’ll stay that way unless things escalate.

Diane: I do not intend for that to happen. I hope you know that. And I know I made a similar promise earlier today…

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Diane: But after losing the job that I’ve grown to love, I, um — I am more resolved than ever to do better, to be better.

Kyle: I really hope you mean that.

Diane: I do. So has phyllis officially resigned?

Kyle: [ Scoffs ]

[ Cellphone pings ]

Diane: Is everything alright?

Kyle: I’m not sure. What do you think?

Phyllis: [ Thinking ] Oh, diane, you are so sweet and innocent and humble.

[ Sighs ] Could you actually [Sighs] Be getting the better of me? Could I be failing? No. I will not let her win. I will not. Think. Oh, phyllis, think. They all have blinders on. If I could you just get to summer, and if I could just get her to open her eyes and look at things honestly from my perspective… yeah. That’s it. Summer just needs a little nudge to see that diana is the one who was wrong. That’s it.

Summer: Okay, what’s going on?

Diane: I have no idea.

Summer: What did your message say?

Kyle: Mariah said to meet her here and bring my mom.

Summer: Hmm. Noah told me to meet him here, but he didn’t say anything about the two of you.

Together: Surprise!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Noah: Yeah!

Mariah: Ow!

Noah: Surprise! A fragrance this alluring

Summer: I think we walked in on the wrong party.

Noah: No, this is exactly where you’re supposed to be.

Kyle: But why? Would someone please explain what’s going on?

Noah: You’re in the right place ’cause this party is for you. And you.

Kyle: I don’t get it. Surprise what?

Jack: Traci, what would you call this?

Traci: The surprise non-bachelor/non-bachelorette party. Eh, that’s a little clunky.

[ Laughter ]

Allie: Well, whatever it is, it is my first big abbott shindig.

Noah: Oh, in honor of you having yet another wedding.

Summer: Aww.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ] I love it.

Summer: Oh, my god. You guys, this is so sweet. I’m fine. I’m fine. It’s just, you don’t — you don’t know how much this means to me. To us.

Kyle: Mm. Thank you so much, everyone. As you all know, historically, I am the go-to guy for wedding and all things wedding-related.

Mariah: I’m sorry. Have you planned a speech for your surprise party?

[ Laughter ]

Kyle: What I’m trying to say is you guys really know how to celebrate.

[ Laughter ]

Noah: You heard the guy. Let’s party. Welcome to the glam club.

Traci: Wow.

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

Summer: Noah, this place is going to be packed day and night. I love it.

Kyle: You’ve done an amazing job.

Allie: I’m so impressed.

Traci: And noah planned this entire evening.

Noah: Yeah, well, I know you have pretty high standards, so I hope I lived up to the expectation.

Kyle: You sure have.

Summer: You know what? I was right to suspect something earlier, even though you all were very convincing when you were pretending not to know anything about our vow renewal.

Mariah: Well, I really hope you can forgive us.

Kyle: It’s the best surprise we could’ve gotten.

Traci: Even better than the surprise re-wedding you had planned?

Diane: Ah, I’m so glad everything’s out in the open.

Summer: Noah, did you say something about champagne?

Noah: I didn’t, but, uh — okay.

Jack: [ Chuckles ]

Summer: Noah, I see kyle’s parents here, but where are mine?

Noah: Oh, dad’s on his way. He should be here any second.

Summer: And what about my mom?

Noah: We thought it might be a good idea to avoid any possible tension, so we staggered the arrival of your mom and diane. I know it’s weird.

Summer: Oh, actually, after the day the four of us have had, that is the most brilliant solution ever. You are about to win brother of the year award.

Noah: Yeah, we got to make sure that diane’s out of here before phyllis shows up.

Summer: And you have a plan to get her out of here on time?

Noah: I thought that I did, but it looks like we just hit a little snag.

Summer: Oh. No, no, no.

Phyllis: What’s going on?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Indistinct conversations, down-tempo music playing ] Hey, you. Hey. Hey. Hi. You doing all right?

[ Sighs ] Brando? Anything else happen? Yeah. Well, alexis and i got into it with kristina. You both talked to her? Mostly alexis. Kristina witnessed the attack on brando, and we just — we were just trying to keep her safe, and, you know, it’S… yeah. You just express it differently, in different ways. Right. And she’s an amazing young woman. I-I-I love that she stands up for herself. But… yeah. I know. …I mean, it’s like… right? I know. I know. Hey, guys. I’m — I’m, uh… nina: Hey. …Sorry if I’m interrupting anything. I just, um… wanted to tell you how sorry I am to hear about brando. Thanks. How did carly take the news? I have no idea. I haven’t spoken to carly in a couple days.

[ Sighs ] Come on, come on, come on. All right.

[ Cellphone chirps ] Whew! [ Claps hands ] All right. Oh. Oh, gosh. Wow. That’s a lot.

[ Exhales deeply ] Hey, joss. It’s me. Um, well, I’m still in jacksonville, and I now have a phone. Gosh, I could have used you when I was trying to download everything from the cloud. But so far, so good. Call me when you get this, okay? I love you.

[ Beep ] Drew: Carly.

I’m sorry I missed your call. I’m here whenever you can talk.

[ Beep ]

[ Beep ] Sonny:

Carly, it’s me. Call me back.

[ Beep ]

[ Footsteps approaching ] Peyton: Why on earth are you still here? Was lucy expecting victor? She seemed surprised to see him, so I don’t think so. Do you know where they were headed? Oh, no. Sorry. How long ago did they leave? Maxie: I don’t know. A little bit ago. To be honest, lucy was definitely trying to get rid of him, but victor — just wouldn’t take “no” for an answer. Let’s just say he was…persistent.

[ Chuckles ] Okay, you two. What’s going on and how worried should I be? This — this is just too much.

[ Chuckles ] Nonsense, my dear. For a woman such as yourself, the whole world would not be enough. Well, I did used to believe that, and then I saw the whole world. But th– it — it’s — it’s amazing. You know, when you said a business lunch, I really thought…salads, arnold palmers.

[ Chuckles ] If that’s all you expected from an afternoon with me, then it is high time we got better acquainted.

[ Thud, metal creaking ]

[ Gasps ] Oh! Whoa! My g– my goodness. What was that? Oh, it was probably the — the ship unmooring. Oh. And — and why would the ship unmoor? Well, to — to set sail, my dear. Soon we shall be miles from port charles. Elizabeth. Hi. Are you all right? I’m better. Well, good. Um, I look forward to picking up where we left off. That’s why I’m — I’m here. I keep thinking about yesterday’s session and how I remembered that man who I think is my father being at the top of the stairs when that woman fell. I mean, that was a huge breakthrough. Yes, it was. We made a lot of progress. Unfortunately, memories can be a little tricky. The only way to really verify what happened is for you to reach out to your father. And I will if I have to. But for now, I have a better idea. But for it to work, I’ll need your help. Jordan: I’m only conferring with you about the results of the toxicology report because you were brando’s doctors and you could be of help to this investigation. So no discussing with family or friends. No leaking to the press. Let’s keep this between us. Are we good? Of course. Yes. Yes. Good. Now, someone killed brando with a poisoned hook. Any thoughts? May I see that? The toxin — it — it seems vaguely familiar. I just don’t know why. Because the assailant didn’t use just any toxin. Whoever you’re looking for has got a real imagination for murder.

You’ve mostly practiced in big cities, right? Yeah. Yeah. Why? What is this, a country poison? You could say that. It’s a kind of venom. Like from a snake? Well, you’d have to do further tests to determine the genus and species, but the origin is definitely a reptile. And you know this why? Well, I’ve never run into something like this in a modern clinical setting, but, you know, in the past, there’s been warrior cultures that used venom to poison their spears, some untouched indigenous cultures still do to this day. That’s right — to protect themselves from missionaries and interlopers. I watch the science channels. But we aren’t talking about ancient warfare or protected tribes. I’ll check the databases, but I don’t recall any serial-killer profiles that include any of this. So you do believe this is the work of a serial killer? I called carly yesterday a couple times, actually, and — and I just never heard back. I take it you guys haven’t heard from her, either. I called her. She — she never called me back. Okay. I’ll just check in with michael, see if his mom reached out to him, then. You got her involved in that — what is it called? It’s that, uh, seminar. The leadership-seminar thing. Yeah. You got contacts for that? I do. Yeah. I’ll call mia. S-she’s the leader of the whole program. She set the whole thing up. I’ll just tell her that it’s a family emergency. I’m only worried ’cause carly wouldn’t ignore me in a dangerous situation. No. You don’t — sonny, you don’t have to explain to me why you’re concerned about carly. Neither does drew. I’m a guest at this hotel. I have every right to be here. Oh. This place used to have better standards. You still working on your gala, or were you and the other ladies who lunch meeting about community resources? What’s next? Designated picnic area for those making under six figures? Oh, actually, the jacksonville beautification guild is known for our charity work. Yeah, when they’re not digging up souls from their eternal resting places. I had no idea virginia was buried in that cemetery. Great. That’s great. Since you have no vested interest, either way, you can reconsider. I’m afraid it’s too late. Why? The measure to move the cemetery wasn’t unanimous. All you have to do is hold another vote. No, I-I don’t think there’s anything to worry about. I’m just a little surprised. I knew lucy and my father were acquainted. I hadn’t realized they were lunching together these days. Can you reach her, please? ‘Cause she’s not picking up my calls, and I-I just need to have a chat. Is this about deception? Potentially. Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Um, do you know when she’ll be back? I don’t suppose you have any important business meetings she has to return for. Oh, I don’t, but lucy might. I can check with her assistant. That’d be great. Thank you. Thank you so much.

[ Telephone beeps ] Maxie: Does lucy have many appointments today? This is on me. This is just — I should never have done this — pushed her to get information from victor. He’S… he’s too dangerous. I think lucy can handle herself. What? Robert’s people wouldn’t take this, and they’re professionals. Also, check any sticky notes, scratch paper, napkins. Sometimes she writes things down there. Okay. Look. You know your father better than me. So…this unexpected lunch date — could it be because he’s figured out lucy has an agenda? Well, if I did… victor certainly could. So, what do you think of the venue? Ah! The, um, haunted star. It’s interesting. Oh. Just interesting? Okay. Rather inspired. Because isn’t this the very vessel that first brought you to port charles and — oh. Shh. Shh.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Chuckles ] Yes. So many, many, many years ago. I mean, that is before the dearly departed helena cassadine gifted it to your nemeses, luke and laura, on their wedding day.

[ Chuckles ] That’s right. Of course! You literally wrote the book on all this. You bet I did. So, here we are. And, you know, if I didn’t know better — which I’m not saying I do know better — I would think… that you just abducted me. Is that a bad thing?

[ Chuckles ] Well, I haven’t been kidnapped in a very long time. I suppose I could use a refresher. Hm. You are a charmer, aren’t you? Please.

[ Laughs ] Thank you. And you, sir, are a master of understatement. But, um, do tell, really — what are we doing here right now? I mean, on this particular vessel. Well, I have rented out the entire ship so we won’t have any interruptions. Ah! How very gracious of you, when you could have just taken it.

[ Chuckles ] Oh! And I see you also brought your goombah. Hello, goombah. Champagne? Oh! Uh, of course. Thank you so much. You know, I’m just curious, though — do all your business lunches include bubbly and…boat rides? Well, neither you nor I, ms. Coe, are what I would call traditionalists. That’s one of the reasons I feel we’ve been drawn to each other. So, shall we, uh, enjoy our champagne? We shall indeed. And we can watch the sun set over the water from the main deck. Sunset? Ah. How — how long is this lunch? Well, uh, I have taken the liberty of checking your schedule, and you are free for the rest of the day. Mm. Yes. You are correct. I don’t really have any plans. Except, you know, if you want to mention…work. And your lawyer acquaintance is still out of town? So it’s settled, then. You’re all mine.

Okay. No meetings written down in lucy’s day planner, sticky notes, scratch paper, or napkins. But that doesn’t really mean anything. She frequently doesn’t write things down and still manages to show up. Did her assistant catch where they were going, maybe? No. No. She wasn’t in the room when victor was here. But now that I’m thinking about it, it is really weird that lucy actually went with him. We’re kind of in crisis mode with everything going on with sasha, and it’s really not like lucy. Of course, you know, drew’s concerned. Him and carly are friends or — I don’t know what they are. Well, sonny, from the look of what happened at the picnic, they’re a lot more than friends. You’ve mentioned that before. And I’m just — I’m just saying it again, because maybe drew’s investment in carly’s well-being is more than he’s letting on. Wait. So carly never even checked in? Do you know what happened? Oh. Where did the plane land? Okay. All right. Well, um, thank you very much, mia. I’ll find her. Here’s hoping she didn’t get into too much trouble. The process of moving the cemetery has already begun. Oh, you were given ample notice. Same as all the other families.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

[ Sighs ] That’s not the point. The point is, my mom had one burial request — to be buried near the water in her hometown. Virginia also probably wanted to have her grave tended to on a regular basis. Well…we know what happened there. And I wanted a happy, healthy marriage. You spoiled that, too. I guess we can’t always have what we wanted. Okay. I was trying to be nice. But if you want to do this the hard way, that’s fine with me. I still haven’t been able to recall that woman’s face. That’s frustrating. I know. If you hypnotize me again and we revisit that memory, I think what I saw will become clearer. Well, we can concentrate on recognizing those faces during our next session. Can we do it now? I’m afraid not. I have an appointment in 10 minutes. Kevin, I-I know this isn’t an emergency, but I can’t sleep. I’m not eating. I haven’t lost time since our last session, but who knows when that’ll happen again? And I understand. This process can really take a toll. How did that woman get to the bottom of the stairs? And is that man I can’t see my father? Whoever it is, is that person still a threat to someone? I really feel like we should figure out these answers as soon as possible. Kevin, please. I wouldn’t ask if I wasn’t desperate. I’ll cancel my appointment.

[ Exhales deeply ] I don’t want to jump to conclusions, especially since the weapon used in ava’s attack wasn’t poisoned — with venom or otherwise. But you do believe it to be the same assailant?

The invader’s “anonymous, well-placed source” certainly seems to think so. Regardless, it’s too soon to say. A serial killer may have as few as two victims but are usually defined by a cooling-off period in between attacks. These were very close together. Why would a perpetrator employ different methods between attacks? In my analysis, whoever did this was disappointed that ava survived. So they upped the ante to make sure their next victim didn’T.

Ant chatterhas given me the need to check on my daughter. And don’t worry. I won’t mention any details of the case. I want her to be able to sleep at night. Hey, look, commissioner. I’d like to — we’re likely dealing with a violent repeat offender whose modus operandi is growing more lethal. Which is why I believe that whoever furnished the quote to the invader was simply trying to warn the public. Yes. All any of us want is to mitigate risk and prevent injury. Of course. But crucial information needs to be kept under wraps. This helps us separate the lunatics who confess from the real perpetrators who might want to toy with us. No kidding? You got phony confessions? Since the invader article. But they don’t know about the venom on the hook. Hey, nor — nor will they. The last thing I want to do is compromise your investigation. We’re all worried about our families, dr. Finn. I imagine this must hit pretty close to home for you. I mean, I used to see tj and brando around the hospital. They got in a fight over there in one of the hallways one day. I remember. Yeah. But, I mean, they seem to have gotten pretty friendly. I guess they worked everything out. I suppose they did. Seeing a man so close to my son’s age cut down in his prime… that really makes it more personal for me. We can continue to escalate, or we could search for some common ground. So why don’t you let me buy you a drink and we can discuss this? Are you sure you can afford it? Excuse me? Oh, well, we have google here in jacksonville, too. It was nice! Uh, the hotel you…used to own. The kind of place that would attract visitors. I imagine at some point you were even a leader in port charles society, someone who would understand the need for civic improvement. And now — oh, just look — look how the mighty have fallen. Oh, lamont, uh, would you get the…lady a — whatever she wants. Don’t worry, darlin’. It’s on my tab. I want to discuss something with you. Okay. You need security. Oh, sonny. No. Until we catch the guy. I’m fine. No. Famous last words.

[ Sighs ] Okay. Can I just hire my own security, then? I’m gonna have to do the background check anyway, so just let me hire the people that I want. Come o– I just — humor me. You know what? I don’T… I, uh — I tried carly again. Still no answer. All right. Thanks for trying. Yeah. Of course. Of course. Um…I will see you two around. He never said if he talked to that mia woman who ran the seminar. It’s none of our business. Right. None of our business. But you know who is my business is sasha, and I’m really worried about her. Yeah. So am I. I mean, she’s gone through so much, and… now that brando’s gone, you know… she needs all of our support. If she needs anything — and I’m — I’m serious — if she needs anything, I’m here for her. And part of that support team is carly. So…do you know when she’s gonna come back from aruba?

[ Cellphone ringing ] Oh. Let’s — let’s find out right now. Hey, carly. I’ve been trying to get ahold of you. So, where are you? Uh, take one of the guys with you. Okay. Well, brook lynn has no idea where lucy could be headed. Well, thanks for checking. Thank you. She did say that lucy tweeted something like 20 minutes ago. “Follow your stars,” accompanied with a jack-o’-lantern emoji — not a pumpkin, a jack-o’-lantern — with no stars, in september, a month before halloween.

[ Chuckles ] I mean, what does that even mean? I don’t know. Thank you, though, maxie. I really appreciate it. Yeah. You’ve been a big help. Uh… halloween. Hmm. Valentin is a brilliant strategist, and I’m so fortunate to be working with him. I also think… that he’s extremely handsome and charming and savvy and even sometimes a tad bit ruthless. I can certainly see where he gets that from. I bet you’re so proud of him. Well, it’s true. Valentin does take after me in some respects.

[ Chuckles ] But I’m afraid even family can disappoint. Oh, no. That’s horrible. H-how? I can’t see how valentin could possibly disappoint you. That’s sad. Well, one would assume that blood would engender unwavering loyalty. But, sadly, that is not always the case. Which is why it is so important to forge other bonds — with, uh — with you, for instance.

[ Chuckles ] Oh. Thank you. No. I couldn’t possibly eat another morsel, really. You know, what I could use is a power walk to walk off all this amazing, delicious food. Will we be heading back to dry land soon? I certainly hope not. Our afternoon… is just getting started.

But that was your halloween costume last year, james. A pirate would be so much more fun. Yeah, of — of course you could wear a fake parrot. C-can we talk about this later? Your aunt nina just got here. Okay. Love you. Bye. Fake parrot? Geez. Like you’ve ever said no to james.

[ Laughing ] Never. Never. Hi! Hi. It’s so good to see you. Nice to see you. What’s up? Well, I actually need your opinion. Ooh. Okay. Uh, fall fashions — I’m your gal. Advice on your love life — you should know better. No, it’s not that. I’M… I’m just trying to figure out the best way to help sasha. Oh, well, in that case, I’m the last person you should talk to. If you’re in jacksonville, what took you so long to respond to your messages? I lost my phone. I left it on the plane. But you know our — our — our numbers. Why couldn’t you borrow a phone? I called josslyn after I landed. I figured everybody else could wait until I got my replacement phone. Why? What’s going on? Is everything okay with donna and avery? Yeah. The girls are fine. Uh…brando isn’T.

[ Indistinct conversations ] You know, in the spirit of full disclosure, the venom element makes this kind of personal for me, too. How so? How so? Just out of medical school, I accepted a doctors without borders posting to the mariana islands. In micronesia. Yes. That’s a very remote location. It is. It is, but I was, uh — I was with my wife. Uh…my — my late wife, reiko. She was also a doctor. And we both felt very strongly that we could do some good work there. While we

were on the island,we had a very good friend — good doctor. He died a very painful death from a snakebite. So what we just discovered about brando has… has brought all that back up. The person at the top of the stairs — are they still there? Yes. Can you see their face? No, not clearly. In our last session, you said you might know the woman at the bottom of the stairs. Can you try to see her face again? Take your time. Is she moving? No. I still can’t see her face. Can you get closer? I’ll try. Can you see her face now? Elizabeth? Elizabeth.

[ Grunts ] Whose boat was that we just took? It was a zodiac. Okay. Whose zodiac was that we just took? I know people. Really? What do you mean, “really?” Well, we just grabbed it so qckly, I assumed we hadn’t had permission. You sound disappointed. I am a little, yeah. We’ll steal a boat next time. I’m really worried about lucy. Well, listen. My father is a despicable human being and capable of horrible acts. But he’s not gonna take advantage of lucy, because he’s the type who prefers his conquests to surrender. Ew. You honestly think he sailed her out into the open waters with her permission? I think that this is a grand romantic gesture. And I think that as long as he hasn’t discovered her deception, she’s perfectly fine. But your father’s like a bloodhound, sniffing out people’s weaknesses. And lucy’s, you know… practically advertises hers. Right. He’s perfectly capable of exploiting her worst instincts. Victor: May I? Lucy: [ Exhales deeply ] It’s — it’s staggering. It’s simply stunning. And shiny and sparkly and some other “s” word. What have I done to deserve this? That remains to be seen. Oh. Oh — ohh. Oh. Oh, um…mr. Cassadine, I’m not sure what kind of impression you have of me, but, um, yes, I have had a very colorful and imperfect past. A real page-turner, if I do say so myself. But I am always and still will be always a lady. Oh, without question. And please. I apologize if I implied otherwise or if my intentions appeared anything other than — honorable? Please accept this gift as, um, merely a-a tangible token of the alliance that we are about to forge together. An alliance? Do tell. I’m sure you must have noticed by now, my dear, that I am not a man to do anything in half measures. And that includes my plans for the future. Hmm. What kind of plans? Something big is coming. One might even say… earth-shattering. Earth-shattering? Really? Well, uh, tell me. Are you going to be the man steering the ship, so to speak? Let me say just this right now. We’re heading into rough waters, and the only way we can save all souls aboard is with me at the helm. Now, I was hoping that my ship would be crewed by fellow cassadines. But it seems they can’t be relied upon. I need a first mate, lucy, and I think that could be you. Portia: Oh, jordan. I didn’t know you were still here. Is there, um, anything else that I could do to help regarding brando’s case? No. I wanted to thank you for requesting the tox screen. Without it, we wouldn’t have discovered the cause of death for brando, so… well, I’m just glad I followed my instincts on that one. This latest bit of information is so distinct. It’s like a signature. Hopefully, it’ll help us to identify who the killer is. Well, if there’s anything else I can do to help… I’ll let you know. Whatever it takes to get to the truth. I’m glad to hear we’re both on the side of truth. Elizabeth, answer me. Do you want to end this session? All right. I’m going to count backwards from five. When I get to one, I will clap my hands, and you’ll wake, remembering everything. In five, four, three, two…

[ Claps hands ] …One. Nod if you’re with me. Mm-hmm. Gave me a bit of a start there. You okay?

[ Exhales deeply ] Yeah. I know exactly what I need to do. Look, lately, all I’ve done is hurt sasha, not help her. Maxie, how can you say that? Well, things really started going downhill when lucy suggested it would be best for deception if sasha took a major step back — especially as spokesmodel. Look, I’m not — I’m not blaming lucy. I’m actually blaming myself. I wasn’t fully on board with the idea, but I went along with it anyway. Well, in all fairness, we know that sasha needs help — more than she’s willing to accept. So maybe not having to focus on work is a good thing. Yeah, but that’s not why we did it. We did it for the bottom line, not to help our friend. Yes, sasha needs help. But what if the help she needs is a purpose, not a kiss-off? I — maxie, you didn’t kiss her off. Yeah? How do you know that? Yeah. I know that because I know you, and you don’t kiss people off. Even so, we professionally pushed sasha away when she personally needed us the most. And I-I wasn’t even able to be at the meeting where we informed sasha. Lucy had to do it alone. Sasha was so upset. She had another public meltdown. And now, on top of losing a child not even a year ago, she’s lost brando. How many times is this poor woman’s heart gonna be shattered? Oh, my god. Poor sasha. And gladys. How are they doing? Devastated. We’re all doing the best to take care of them. It just doesn’t make sense. Brando was one of the good guys. I’m sorry, sonny. I’m so sorry. I know how close you guys were becoming and how much you both loved mike. At least they’re together now. First ava, now brando? Why? Jordan thinks this, uh, nutjob might be targeting people close to me. What? All right. That’s it.I’m on the first flight home. No, you’re not.

[ Exhales deeply ] Maxie, you… you couldn’t have known that this was gonna happen. You’ve been trying to help sasha through this really tough period. Yeah, but everything I do seems to make matters worse because of this company. I feel so cold-blooded. Okay. Look at it this way. You are protecting sasha’s livelihood during this crisis. There’s got to be something else I could do to help, something to show that I actively support sasha. There is. Just do whatever she needs, even if she pushes you away. Yeah, I know. Trust me. I know what it’s like. I mean, when nathan was killed… well, you remember. Yeah. There’s so much that needs to be done. Yeah. Maxie, there’s one thing that’s gonna be too difficult for sasha and gladys to do, something that requires a master planner like you. Right. This is horrible. A week ago, I was drafting a guest list for sasha and brando’s wedding reception. Now I’m gonna use that list for his funeral. The girls are safe. Josslyn too. I got around-the-clock security on all of them. What about michael?

Well, michael has

his own security

and doesn’t need my help. But I’m looking out for him. All right. Well, it’s just really hard not coming home when there’s a homicidal maniac targeting our family. Carly, you’re safer where you are. I’m in jacksonville, florida. I know I can’t stop you from coming back, and I know you hate jacksonville. Do me a favor. Do not come back until I give you the all-clear. You’ll keep me posted? Always. Thank you.

[ Indistinct conversations ] Homicidal maniac? Sounds like your family needs you. Oh, pity you must go. I’m not going anywhere until I’m sure virginia is staying right where she is in that cemetery. That’s not up to you. I know it’s been quite a few years since you knew me, mrs. Roberts… that’s no longer my name. …But I’m not impressed or intimidated by you. And the one thing that hasn’t changed? I’m still really good at raising hell. So if you think you regretted knowing me then… just wait. Hm. You know, I do so love a man with plans and a vision. Could you just perhaps share your nefarious plans with me? I mean… I’m so excited to hear them. You’ve got me curious, and i don’t even know what they are. Oh, I would like nothing more. I just wish I knew who I could trust. Oh, I see. I-I really did truly think we were building a rapport. And so we are, and I look forward to deepening our connection. But you have to understand. A-a man in my position, I… I need to be judicious. Mm. I see. Especially with your grand designs. Speaking of designs. Johann? Why don’t you, uh, enjoy some air outside? Yes, boss. Alone at last. I think we’ll find lucy and your father in the main room. Unless we find them in a stateroom. Ew. What? You said it yourself. My father’s very persuasive. Do you think we should split up? Oh. Door.

[ Door opens ]

Oh dang. You think of Guy be able to have lunch with his fiance without getting interrupted, wouldn’t you? Is this everything? Okay? Uhs my probation officer. I gotta do these random drug tests. You know, there’s a condition of my parole. Nothing’s wrong, I hope. Oh, well, no. I mean, back in the day, I, I did a little bit of dealing, but right now your love is the only drug I need.

Jennifer,

I trusted you, buddy. I thought you were my friend. How could you wrap me out to the cops when you know I didn’t kill Abigail? You’re going to help me figure out who was setting me up. They say that. Talking to oneself is the first sign of losing one’s mind. Is that what you’re doing there? Laying groundwork for insanity to defense

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

Didn’t know you were back in town back last night. I heard one turns you in, but it looks like he sold her out first. What are you talking about? Come on, Leo. I’m following the. You steered the cops right to her, whatever. I had no doubt she would get out of it. Uhhuh. , okay. Maybe I earned a little payback myself, but what you did, you are going to burn in hell for it.

What are you doing? I’m just straightening Abigail’s picture. Remember how she always used to come over here and rearrange things? place for everything and everything in his place? Yeah, except our little girl is not in the place where she belongs, Sweetheart.

It’s okay.

You should get that. They’ll go away. More important. It’s okay. I’m, I’m just having a moment. Go see.

What’s up? What’s up? What are you visiting? The pediatric ward. Oh, no, no, no. These are all for you, my brother. I cleared out the whole gift shop for you. I can. You got me a pony. Thank you. Yeah. You said you always wanted one. Yeah, a real one when I was five. Oh, check it out.

Jelly beans fancies. Remember we’re little kids we used to dare each other to eat. Know the little black licorice ones? What are you doing? How Alex Trying to make my little brother feel. How do you think I’m doing if we both know that’s not what you really want?

So you think I don’t make my kid brother feel better? What are you talking about? What I’m talking about is you trying to steal my job and take over Titan.

See, I don’t want your job, Sonny. I’m not trying to steal your job. I don’t want your job. Oh, okay. So you were forced to step in a ceo. Uncle Vic practically begged me to do it. Oh, right. Okay. So it was his idea for you to take over the company, Okay. Yeah. On an interim basis until you were able to get on your feet again.

Interesting. What’s that? Oh no, it’s just, um, From what I’m reading, you’re not just keeping my seat warm. You’re, you’re making big moves. I mean, word is you’re about to take over gcm and then after that you’re gonna acquire, uh, vision industries too. I’m trying to do what’s best for the company. Sonny

You what? You don’t believe me? No, you’re unbelievable. You know what? It’s just like when we were kids, Oh, let me watch your jelly beans for ya. I’ll keep ’em safe. Except when you gave them back. All the purple and red ones are gone. Serious. You’re so bad about me taking you Jelly B. No, that’s, I’m not about to taking over the company.

You should be thanking me for taking over the company son. Because while you’re laid up here on your back, I’m busting my ass trying to keep the stock price up so that there is a company for you to run when you get out. So you did this for me, I did it for the family. I don’t want your spot at the company.

Keep your damn jelly. Alex, Alex, look.

I’m sorry.

What was that? I didn’t hear you. I said I’m sorry. Okay. Look, I’m just, I’m frustrated that I’m stuck here and maybe I overreacted.

Baby, I overreact.

I only want what’s best for you kid. I remember how hard you took it when Leo Stark took you out last time, stopped you from getting a chance of running Titan. Now this guy took you out again. I wanna help you make good on your second chance.

I have no idea what you’re talking about. I did nothing to you. Oh, really? Yes. Really? You’re the one who tricked me into believing that you love me and then you humiliated me on our wedding day. Listen to you. Your words are positively dripping with scorn. They should be. I was hurt. I was humiliated, and, and mortified.

I still am, and all that hurt, humiliation, and mortification. It turned you bitter, didn’t it? Greg filled you with anger and resentment. So much so that you have dedicated your life to making me suffer

Are you somehow blaming me for your cur predicament? You’re damn right I am. You’re the reason I’m in here. What I know, Craig, I figured it out. You’re framing me for the attempted murder of and the murder of Abigail.

Hello, Jennifer. Gwen, sorry to drop in unannounced. I’m sure that I’m the last person that you’d want to. Actually, I’m, I’m grateful that you came. You are. This gives me a chance to Thank you. Thank me for what you turned your friend Leo into the police, and for that, I’m grateful. Oh, that we both know that that couldn’t have been easy for you.

Why? Well, as much as I’d like to say that. Turned in Leo for Abigail’s sake, I did have my own selfish motives. Oh, well you may remember that he falsely accused me of killing my sister, and I was not about to let him get away with that. You called the police out spite, right? Mostly. Well, you know what? I don’t care why you did it.

The only thing that matters now is Abigail’s killer is in custody. I wouldn’t be so sure about that.

Did you see this Leo Stark got arrested? Really? Huh? Well, It looks like your ex-husband’s ex fiance got sold out by his best friend. No. I’m just glad that Abigail and Sonny are finally getting the justice they deserve and that that murderous rodent Leo is getting what he deserves and that you and your daughter safe.

Oh, Clyde, if I told you how much you mean to me, I’m back at you baby. And you know that ring looks really good on your finger. Mm-hmm. , but I’m wondering maybe, maybe you could use a little more bling on that beautiful hand of ears. No, no. I love this ring. I’m talking about putting another band on a still cute little finger.

You mean? I mean, I wanna marry you and I am tired of waiting around. You wanna get married soon? Hell, I wanna get married today.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen you would’ve lost words before. I, I, I, I’m sorry. It’s just that you wanna get married today. Yeah. Having dinner with your ex last night call of thinking. Did you notice when he saw that ring on your finger? He turned that deep, deep shade of. Hm. He did look a little jealous, didn’t he?

Yeah, he did. So I’m thinking why not double down? Give him a wedding to make him really feel jealous about. Wait, you, you wanna get married today? Just to stick it to Craig? No, sweetheart, I won’t marry. Because I love you and I wanna spend the rest of my life making you happy. I wanna get married today to sweeten the deal a little bit, right?

As you say, sticking it to the guy that cause you so much pain. Well, Craig is definitely not gonna be happy. You telling me you are afraid of Craig ? I mean, what do you think the big bad doctor Wesley’s gonna do anyway?

So tell me why you think Craig could be the murderer. Will and I were with son and we, we were trying to help him remember what had happened when he was attacked. I questioned Sonny myself. He didn’t see anyone. I’m not saying he saw anyone. He didn’t see anyone, but he remembers right when he was attacked, smelling vanilla.

Vanilla. And, and then, and then after that, when I was on my way home, I ran into, And he was offering me condolences about Abigail, and then he gave me a hug and I got a strong with a vanilla. You killed Abigail and then you followed me to the Titan office where you laid in weight. Laid in weight, yes. And then you plunged that knife into Sonny’s back.

You actually think that I stabbed two. For you.

It’s just you and me here, Craig. Like pillow talk without the Saturn encased, goose down. Extra firms we used to lay our heads on. So talk to me. Love her. To love her. Admit what you did. I know you want to,

You know what?

Yeah. Consider this a, uh, Performance bonus for the great job You’re doing well. I’m stuck in there. Really, really, brother. Those are some smart moves you’re making. Seriously, I’m, I’m glad Uncle Vic put in charge. I’m proud of you. I, I’m sorry I ever doubt.

Apologi accepted. Bring it in. Bring it in. Bring it. Oh, oh, oh oh. Alex the back. No, my, That’s my back. Alex, Alex, Alex. Oh, it’s the bad back. I’m sorry. I’ve got the bad back. Yeah, I’m sorry. Hey. I love you, bro. I love you. Hello, ceo, Acting ceo. Hey, am I, uh, interrupting some kind of power lynch? Mm-hmm. . God just splitting some beans.

Um, well I just got a call from a reporter asking for a comment on the LA room systems deal. What about it? You know what, why don’t you just let me handle this pipe, Sonny. Rest. It’s rust. It’s fine. No, got it. Normal. I got it. What’s What’s gone? They wanna know why an LLC owned by Alex, bought the company and then turned around and immediately sold it to Titan.

Did I say something wrong?

I was working on that deal for months only to lose it at the last second to some unknown competitor, and now I find out it was you, son. It is not what you think it sounds like it’s exactly what I think it is. Oh my God. All this talk about how it was Uncle Vic’s idea, how he came to you. Are you kidding?

It was his idea. Really? I can’t believe I felt for this. This was your plan all along, wasn’t it? You have been plotting against me since you got to Salem.

You think Leon’s innocent Leo is anything that innocent but truly I I don’t think he’s the one who killed Abi. Why do you say that? I’ve known Matt a very long time and he has been quite vocal about denying this from the start. It wouldn’t be the first time he lied. No Leo lies like people breathe, especially if it’s to save his own skin.

But honestly, I just, I don’t think he’s got the stomach to stab someone. So you’re basing this mostly on his word. When he and I were in the motel room together, before I turned him in, he swore that he was being framed. He was awfully persuasive. I’ve gotta admit, I had my doubts too. I mean, something about this has never added up.

There is so much evidence against him. If Rio didn’t kill Abigail, then who? Well, he’s convinced that it’s Craig Wesley.

Go ahead, Craig. There must be a part of you that is dying to admit what you did to rub it in my face. Prove how smart you are. Don’t you want me to know it? To beg you for forgiveness?

Feel. Youre of desperation. What? Do you really expect anybody to believe this? This crazy theory of yours? Yes. As a matter of fact, I do, because we both know it’s true and I’m gonna prove it.

Craig does have a temper, but I’m not worried about him getting mad. Then what’s the problem? Well, when we get married, I want it to be the perfect time for us, not because I wanna hurt my ex. I mean, don’t you think there’s enough nastiness in the world right now without our adding to it?

Yeah. You are a Marvel, Nancy. How about this? We get married today, just you and me. We don’t tell anybody and it will only be because I can’t wait to make you my wife. It won’t be about sticking it to Craig or anyone else. It has everything to do with me wanting to share my life with you. Best person I know.

Okay. Really, really , you’re the best thing ever. Oh, maybe,

but I, I really wanna have Chloe there. Oh, um, okay. And she’s gonna wanna have Brady there. Yeah. And I’m sorry, but Craig should really be there. What you just said that I, I want Craig there, not because I wanna rub his nose in it, but for the same reason he wanted me at his wedding to Leo. We shared two beautiful daughters together and a lot of wonderful memories we’re family and we always will be.

So even after all the pain he comes, you and all the lies he told, Craig has made some mistakes in his life, but deep down he is a good man. You left Nancy. You gave up your whole life to be with me, and then on the day of our wedding, you found out I was lying. You were, as you said, hurt, humiliated, mortified.

You had given yourself to me, mind, body, and soul, and when you found out the truth, something inside you broke you, snapp. That’s why you killed Abigail.

I was not plotting against you. Then why did you buy the company? I bought it because you almost blew it. Excuse me. Uncle Victor said, You’re not a killer, Sonny, and you’re. But that’s okay because I’m here and I’m here to help you. That’s what I was trying to do to make sure that you didn’t miss out on an opportunity.

The only opportunity you saw was making yourself look good at my expense. Are you serious right now? You think that’s what this is about me trying to show you up? No. No. I think the Leo Stark isn’t the only person who stabbed me in the back. You’re crossing a line, brother. You know what, brother? You take your jelly beans and your horse and your balloons and get outta my room.

Get outta my room. Alex.

Guys, can we talk about this? Alex?

You know, I can’t wait to make you memorize, but I do wish that Ben and Sierra and the baby were here with us. Joy too. But we’ll celebrate with him another. Today is just for us. You have no idea how happy that makes me. Now all we have to do going down a city hall, make it official. Oh, you know, Brady.

Brady could be your best man. And Chloe could be my maid of honor. Sure. And Craig could be the witness. Hell, he could walk you down the aisle if you want. . Oh, unless you think that’s a little bit much. Oh, Craig giving me. Oh, I wonder if he’ll do it. I kinda like the symbolism. I’ll give him a call. ACEs.

Meanwhile, I’ll go get the stupid drug test taken care of. Now I don’t want to do anything wrong. I don’t wanna spoil a chance too. Have him hold you. Nancy Miller Seal, Death dues part. Maybe the vanilla was Craig’s cologne or, or, or aftershave. So you want me to lock up someone else based on hunches and smells?

Look, I, I, I just want the right person behind bars for murdering my wife. I, I would love to accept that it was Leo. Okay. Cuz maybe I could finally start to get a little bit of closure. Chad, I want that for you too. Then start asking the question. Leo has a ton of enemies. I mean, he, he ruined Craig’s life in a very public manner.

Okay. All right, so, So what’s the motive? Vengeance. He killed Abigail so that Leah would be locked up for murder. . It’s not that crazy of a theory.

Okay, Chad, I, I’ll look into it. Okay. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. It’s all I ask. Okay. Thank you.

For what you did to me and to so many other people. I don’t. There is one person on this birth that would miss you, the Diana self. Wow. I did not stab anybody. No one. And if someone is framing you, it is not.

You are a scary, sadistic maniac Look in your eyes. It’s a, it’s the look of a stone cold killer . What you, if someone had asked me a few months ago, uh, if I thought you could kill anybody or stab anybody, I was sitting crazy, but I didn’t know you. The truth is I don’t know you. I just thank God you are out of my life forever.

You’re an excellent liar, Craig Wesley, Even better than me. Excuse me. You lied to your wife and to yourself for your whole life, but I am on to you. You think you can frame me for murder and get away with it? I am going to prove that I am innocent and you are guilty. And when I’m through with you, you are going to be so sorry.

You ever laid those beauty lies on Leo Stark. I already am. Sorry.

I have known Craig a long time. He’s totally an. But a murderer, why would he kill Abigail? Well, Leo’s Siri is that Craig was furious when he found out he was duped. He’d given up everything for Leo and um, he was humiliated for it. So he sort of went off the rails and was willing to kill for revenge. Well, that was the case that Abigail was.

Collateral damage.

I know how much I hurt Abigail.

I’m very sorry. That I was unable to make amends for what I did to her, and I hope that whoever it was that killed my sister pace for it dearly. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I hope that you can find comfort from it. Thank you. Thank you for coming and uh, I, I’ll walk up with you. There. You’re going.

If you’re going somewhere. Yeah, I’m, I’m gonna go by the paper, see how the free story’s going, and I’ll be back as soon as I can. Oh,

take care, Jennifer.

Sorry.

Just taking the last of these antibiotics. Sinus infection.

I know what those are. Jennifer, you know, it’s not too long ago, I was a delivery girl for a doctor selling opiates. That’s not what these are.

You know, growing up my mom used to hide those little bottles behind picture frames too. First looking at you, I thought it was just grief, but then looking into your eyes, I could see that it was more than that. You have no idea what I’m falling through. No, I don’t. And I’m not judging you, but you are in pain and I know that you want to find something to.

Jennifer, you are an addict. You’ve been in recovery for a while now. That has none of your business. No, I know it’s not, but if you remember, I did do quite a bit of research on your family before I came to Salem looking for dirt that I could use to hurt your,

But now I want to help you. Yeah, you wanna help me? Help me. How? I’m gonna go catch Jack. Don’t you even think about it.

I am so sorry, Sunny. I didn’t mean to cause trouble between you two.

It’s okay. Didn’t know. I thought you knew about the deal, Alex. I didn’t.

I do know.

I also know I can’t trust my brother and I

talk about looking at gift horse in.

Hey, what my career going son? Not your son.

Hi, Craig. It, it’s n um, I’d really like you to be at my wedding. It, it would mean the world to me. Okay. Would you give me a call as soon as you get this? Thank you. Bye. Oh, Chad, I haven’t seen you since. I’m so sorry about Abigail. Thank you. So, you know, I ran into your ex yesterday. Oh, he’s in town because of Leo.

What did he say? Just had some kind of weird spot avenue. You know, I couldn’t help but notice his cologne. His cologne. Oh, maybe after shave. Has he always worn something that that smells like vanilla.

Hello, Greg Commiss. Hey, uh, you by any chance, have a few minutes to talk how well you were engaged to start. So, uh, I figure, you know, I’m better than most people. Uh, I can’t imagine what that would tell you, but Sure. Uh, yeah, happy to. Great. You know, um, when we head in there, yeah, have two.

Sonny’s trying to get discharged so he can take his job back. May I tell you my side of the story? That depends. Is your side also feature you screwing over your brother? You mean hogging all the best flavors of jelly beans or, I don’t think he finds any of this funny. See your team. Sunny. I’m Team Titan.

It’s my job to deal with this little mess you’ve made and squash it before it becomes a story. Why don’t you let me help us. Just grab some lunch. We’ll figure it out. I’ll pass.

You just popped me a drink the other day, which was a mistake. I think it’s best if we just stick to business. This is business. And I’ll handle it myself

after everything that you have done to this family. Now you wanna wrap me out to Jack? You need help Jennifer, Jack is your husband. You wanna help me? Why don’t you mind your own damn business? I saw you looking at Abigail’s photo. So she wouldn’t want this for you if she were here. She is not here, is she?

And don’t you dare ever compare yourself to my darling beautiful angel because you have been nothing but a virus in this family. That’s why I’m trying to make things better. I owe it to Jack. Tell him, Oh no. Oh no you don’t. You owe me. How do you figure the only reason you have any relationship with Jack at all is because I allow it.

If you had to choose between the two of us, you might dear would lose every time. So if you even think about going to Jack and telling him what you would imagine that you saw here, I will make sure that you’d never see your father again.

Now, get the hell outta my.

That’s odd. What. Well, all the time that Craig and I were married, he, he never wore after shave or cologne. Maybe he started wearing it after the, the two of you split up something that smells like vanilla. Oh, that would be a coincidence. Why do you, why do you say that? Because that’s what my fiance wears.

Clyde, we mm-hmm. , you know, at first I kind of thought it was feminine because it’s so sweet, but. Now I kind of like it.

What? Nothing. I just thought that I smell.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Dramatic music ]

Brooke: Enough is enough. You really need to keep your daughter out of my marriage.

Taylor: Okay. Brooke. Whatever it is that you think steffy did, I’m sure there’s–

Brooke: “Whatever it is I think she did.” I know what she did, taylor. She crossed the line. She wouldn’t let me talk to my own husband. She is being very immature and quite disrespectful–

Taylor: Okay, don’t– don’t do that.

Brooke: She is coming between ridge and me and I won’t allow it.

Paris: Hey. Is everything okay between you and steffy? I just passed her in the hallway and she seems pretty upset.

Hope: Uh… no, it’s– it’s okay. It will be fine.

Paris: I– I wasn’t born yesterday and I can tell that there’s something going on between you two.

Hope: Look, paris, I really value our friendship. And I know you’re close with steffy, too. And I just, I– I don’t want to put you in the middle.

Paris: I can handle it. Is it serious?

Hope: Yeah. And it… it might get worse.

Bill: No, no, no. I’ll be taking care of that.

Jj: Bill spencer. Ever the charmer.

Bill: So you’ll do it?

Jj: You realize I have a client base that books out years in advance.

Bill: And you realize I have deeper pockets than all those clowns put together.

Jj: Modest.

Bill: Money. Come on, jj. You have to come through for your boy, dollar bill. This is a huge release party. I need the best. And the best is you.

Jj: All right, get your assistant to call mine and I’ll have a venue list to you by the end of the day.

Bill: Ah, I can count on my jj.

Jj: I’ll see you soon.

Bill: Okay. Take care. Li.

Li: Bill. Hello. What a wonderful surprise.

Bill: Yeah, it’s been a while. How have you been?

Li: Great. Really great. Things have been just better and better.

Bill: Well, I’m glad to hear that. If anyone deserves it, it’s definitely you.

Li: It’s really good to see you, bill.

Bill: Yeah, you too. I hope I’m not interrupting. Are you meeting someone? Finn?

Li: Oh, no, no. He has a long shift today at the hospital. I’m here alone.

Bill: Well, what do you know? So am I. Join me?

Li: Uh, looks like you already ate.

Bill: Uh, yes, but suddenly I’m feeling very hungry again.

Li: Well, in that case, I’d love to.

Bill: Wonderful.

Paris: Hope, I don’t mean to pry but if there’s anything I can do to help–

Hope: I appreciate that. And I wish there was something you could do. It’s just…

[ Sighing ] This is way bigger than just steffy and me. It’s the history of our families and it’s honestly been going on since before steffy and i were even born. And it’s–

[ Clearing throat ]

Thomas: Uh, hey, uh, don’t mind me. I was just going to grab my sketchpad.

Hope: Actually, can i talk to you about something?

Thomas: Okay.

Paris: I’ll… give you a call later.

Hope: Yeah, thanks.

Thomas: Did you, uh, did you see the designs zende and I left you?

Hope: Yeah, I just– I just looked at them.

Thomas: Is everything okay?

Hope: Oh… depends.

Thomas: On?

Hope: On if you were aware of what steffy did last night, how she prevented my mom from speaking to ridge.

[ Thomas sighing ]

Brooke: I just want to know what– what right does steffy have to keep me from speaking with my husband?

Taylor: Listen, brooke. This is the first I’m hearing about it. Okay? And it’s coming from you. So, if there is truth to it, I will talk to steffy and I– and I– and I understand why you’d be upset.

Brooke: Well, of course there’s truth to it, taylor. It’s no secret that your kids want me to break up with ridge so that you can have a chance with him. But now, they’re actively trying to make that happen and I won’t tolerate it. So, you need to stop your daughter from interfering. And you need to do that today.

[ Taylor sighing ] Want your clothes to smell freshly

Bill: How’s finn doing?

Li: Oh, he’s doing great. Almost fully recovered. It’s truly a miracle.

Bill: Yeah, a miracle you made happen. You saved him. You found hope in what others would deem a hopeless situation.

Li: Had no choice. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for my son.

Bill: Well, that much is clear. And I would have done the same in your situation.

Li: I realize in retrospect, I should have told steffy that finn was alive. It wasn’t fair, but it felt right at the time.

Bill: All right. Stop beating yourself up about that. You were trying to save your son. Mission accomplished. We all carry, uh, regret and we make mistakes. But it doesn’t outweigh who you are and what you were able to do. Finn is lucky to have a mother who loves him so fiercely.

Thomas: Steffy might have gone too far last night.

Hope: Might have? Come on, thomas. Look, I know you’re always going to have your sister’s back but come on.

Thomas: It’s complicated. Your mother…

Hope: Hurts your father?

Thomas: Yes.

Hope: They both have over the years. And my mother has made a lot of mistakes in the past, but she has done her best to make up for them. And I would hope that you, of all people, would understand that.

Thomas: It’s not exactly the same.

Hope: How? How is it any different? You are working so hard to prove to people that you’ve changed and– and– and to show that you’re a different thomas.

Thomas: Right. And brooke is never going to believe that, no matter how hard I try. But I get it. I– I understand where she’s coming from. She is trying to protect you, just like we’re trying to protect our father from her.

Hope: I’m sorry, we’re? You never– you never did answer my question from before. Did you know? Were you aware that your sister prevented my mother from speaking to your father?

Thomas: Okay, look. Hope. I want you to know that I respect you and that I– I would never lie to you. Yes. I know that steffy grabbed the phone and kept my father from speaking to your mother. I was standing right there.

Brooke: You really need to make her stop.

Taylor: Okay. All right, I will. I am going to ground her as soon as she gets home from school. Come on, brooke. She’s a grown woman.

Brooke: Well, then maybe you should remind her of that. She is acting like a child. What is wrong with her? She should be happy. She should be grateful. She found out that finn was alive. She’s reunited with her husband. I’m sure that makes her feel blessed.

Taylor: You know it does.

Brooke: Okay. Well, that’s what she should be focused on. Her family, her husband, her children. Not my marriage to ridge.

Taylor: You know, she is, uh, she’s focused on it because she’s just concerned about her father. That’s what it– she’s looking out for him.

Brooke: I see. Okay. So, I’m a monster because of mistakes I’ve made in my past. But steffy? No, she’s a sweet little angel.

Taylor: Everybody makes mistakes. Everyone does. But you’ve made the same ones over and over again for decades with ridge.

Brooke: Oh. God. And you think he deserves better, right? Well, guess what, taylor? He chose me. He loves me. And I love him. We’re married. We have a future together. And we don’t call each other destiny just because it sounds cute. We call each other destiny because nothing or no one will ever come between us.

[ Coughing/sneezing ]

[ Door knocking ]

Bill: It’s so good to see you smiling and happy again. Quite a contrast to the person I found in the alley.

Li: I was A… very different woman.

Bill: On the surface. But, when I looked into your eyes, I could see that fire, that passion.

Li: You really saw all of that?

Bill: Yeah. Maybe that’s why I was so drawn to you.

Li: You were so gentle and kind to me. I was so disorientated. But there you were, reaching out to me. Thank you.

Hope: So you were right there when steffy stopped my mom from speaking to ridge.

Thomas: Like I said, it is important that you know that you can trust me. And that you know that I’m telling you the truth, even if the truth disappoints you.

Hope: Okay… so then, what really happened?

Thomas: We were all over at steffy’s, having a great time. And dad’s phone was sitting there on the table. And it lights up when brooke called, but it was on silent. Steffy sees it, she goes, she grabs it, she answers it. Look, I think it was a pretty aggressive move on her part.

Hope: And manipulative. Look, thomas, if your dad decides that he doesn’t want to be with my mom anymore,& then fine. But, let that be his own decision and not because of some outside interference.

Thomas: I get why you’re upset. I really do.

Hope: Yeah. And you just stood there and let it happen.

Thomas: Have you ever tried to stop steffy from doing something?

Hope: Did you even want to stop her? I mean, do you– do you really even think that what she did was wrong?

Thomas: I think she was trying to protect our father. And I think if one missed call can ruin the relationship, it’s not that great of a relationship.

Hope: Huh? So you don’t think it was wrong?

Thomas: I think it’s complicated.

Hope: Look. I don’t want to fight with you. But what steffy did was low. She’s deliberately trying to undermine my mother’s marriage and get your dad back with your mom.

Taylor: All right. Um, I– I don’t think that you make ridge happy but that’s just my opinion. And ultimately it’s ridge’s opinion that matters here. And, brooke, I’m just– I’m just following his lead. I’m not the home wrecker that you want to believe I am.

Brooke: Really? Well, then what happened in monaco? And I’m not talking about the reunion between steffy and finn. I’m talking about the reunion you hoped would happen after you kissed ridge.

Taylor: I kissed him back. And it was truly A… it was a moment.

Brooke: Yes, it was a moment with my husband.

Taylor: I don’t think that I can actually explain–

Brooke: Look, I don’t mean to be insensitive. I mean, I certainly don’t understand exactly how it felt to be there and find out that finn was alive and that he was reunited with your daughter who was broken at the time. But then she became whole again. And it must have been– must have been amazing. It was miraculous and I’m sure very exciting.

Taylor: Yeah. That’s it. I’m– I’m glad you understand.

Brooke: Yeah, I do, I do understand how ridge could get caught up in that moment. But you? No. I think you knew exactly what you were doing. You see, you act all sweet and innocent and caring but really, you’re very manipulative. Say whatever it is you want. Really doesn’t matter. The fact is, you laid your lips on my husband. If you have advanced non-small cell lung cancer,

Bill: I was just trying to do what was right. So, I would really appreciate it if you would stop thanking me.

Li: But I can’t because you didn’t just save me. You saved my son. You played a key part in reuniting him with steffy and the kids. You’re a good man, bill.

Bill: That is stretching it. I have done many things that I’m not proud of. Li: What was it someone once told me? We all carry regrets, make mistakes. But it doesn’t outweigh who we are or what you’re able to do?

Bill: No, no, no, that’s not how it works. Nah, that’s not allowed. You can’t be throwing my own words back at me.

Li: Oh, but they’re good words.

Bill: I enjoy getting to know this version of you.

Li: Not the disheveled woman you found in the alley.

Bill: You mean the woman who– who beat down impending death? Or the woman who fought through trauma to save her son? That woman’s pretty impressive. I mean it. It is a pleasure to have this– this strong, accomplished, beautiful woman sitting across from me.

Thomas: Hope. I don’t want to argue with you. And we have worked too hard to get to the good place we’re in.

Hope: We have.

Thomas: It’s tough, though. I mean, our families don’t exactly make it easy. I don’t know who’s worse, our moms or our dads.

Hope: Oh… I don’t know. I– I think it’s a tie, there.

Thomas: Two families, both alike in dignity.

Hope: From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.

Thomas: See! If romeo and juliet can figure it out then we can.

[ Hope laughing ]

Hope: You know, they both died in the end, right?

Thomas: You’re right. That’s a terrible example. But what I’m saying– like, I know that this whole forester-logan thing has taken its toll on you. I mean, you have done so much work trying to mend that bridge. And– and you have been incredible allowing douglas to– to spend as much time as he has over with me at the forresters. I think that that’s– that’s beautiful. And I get how you feel about your mother and what she’s going through and the– and the worry and the frustration that you get seeing that. Steffy understands that, too, though.

Hope: Oh, please.

Thomas: She does. Look– look at what’s happening with our mother. Okay, every time our dad goes to be with your mom… think about what that does to our family. Think about what that does to our mom. We have felt every inch of worry and frustration that you have.

Taylor: I’m sorry.

Brooke: What?

Taylor: You heard me. That– that kiss was not planned. And I didn’t have any intention of making a play on your husband in monaco. I– I know you don’t want to believe it, but it’s true.

Brooke: How can you expect me to believe you after everything we’ve been through?

Taylor: Because as much as we fight, I don’t want to hurt you, brooke. Seeing you in pain doesn’t do anything for me. But I love ridge, too. And I always will. And it’s not just because he’s the father of my children. Or because we had a beautiful life that was ripped away all those years ago. I love him for who he is, for everything that he is. From his grumpiest moods to his happiest moments, I… he– he understands me better than anyone ever has. And, I’m sure you feel the same.

Brooke: Yes. Of course. He’s my husband.

Taylor: And your husband is in love with both of us.

Brooke: Okay, um. What are you getting at? Ridge is torn between his feelings for you and his feelings for me. Don’t tell me that you don’t feel it.

[ Brooke scoffing ] When you’re with him, it’s like he’s there, but you don’t have him 100%. He loves us both. And he is desperately trying to figure out if he wants to stay in his marriage with you. Or move on to A… anew life with me.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Finally, I was waiting for someone from the Justice League of Salem to show up. Guess Cyclops drew the short straw.

I’m gonna give you one chance to do what? Tell me what you did to Kayla, Kate and Marla.

No, I’m sorry. I, I I can’t make it for lunch. I just, I, I’ve just swamped at work. No, your dad’s just, he’s just as busy as I am. No, no, no, no. It’s just my allergies. My allergies are acting. Listen, I, I love you and I will call you later. Alright. Okay. Okay. Bye-Bye. Oh gosh, Stephanie. Yeah. Uh, Steve and I decide there was no point in scar.

Her, John and I made the same decision not to tell the children. Yeah, I just feel.

It is really long. It just isn’t full of closure. Oh my gosh. Aren’t we a parent? Well, I’m just afraid to prescribe anything because I don’t know what we’re dealing with. Uh, did John go home and try to get some sleep? Uh, no. No. John said he had, I think he had to, to get done.

Mr. Black, we heard from your son’s sponsor, Maggie Horton Carus about his commitment to his sobriety. Can you tell us what kind of man he is, what kind of father he is?

Mr. Black. You three will stand helplessly by and watch the women you love leave you.

And then you’ll finally know what I felt when you took my Rebecca, Mr. Black. Did you hear the question?

Okay.

I’m sorry. Did you,

What are you doing? What do you think I’m doing? I’m getting dressed to get the hell out of here.

Job. Hey. Hey Chloe. What’s up? Is everything alright? No, everything is not alright. What’s wrong? It’s about Philip.

Like Sands through the hour, so are the days of our lives.

Phillip, like, have you, have you heard from him? No, I haven’t heard from him. No one’s heard from him in almost a year. No one knows what happened to. And Kristen, she’s using that, how she’s dredging up the fact that you guys investigated Brady, making it seem like he killed Philip only to get custody of Rachel.

Yeah, well, imagine that Kristen coming up with something vicious, vile and, and disgusting just to get her way. Yeah, I just, I just, I hate her that she’s floating that out there, that Brady might have killed Philip. Like she really cares about Rachel. She’s using the Worried Mother Act because she knows that we can’t argue back.

The only thing Brady can do is deny it, but the more he does, it just starts to sound lame. Sean, if, if Brady loses Rachel? If, If Kristen gets away with this. Okay, Chloe. Okay. Just sit down for a minute. Okay? Yeah,

I just. I, I was hoping that you would go back to the hearing with me and tell the judge that Kristen is wrong, that Brady did not kill Philip. Chloe. I can’t do that. Why not? You know, Brady, you know, he would not do this. Do you want Kristen to take his daughter from that? No. I am an officer of the court here.

All right, and, and, and Phillip’s disappearance. It’s been classified as a cold case, so I’d have to testify to that.

Well, then she wins that bitch wins again.

Used black. Do you need a moment?

Uh, No, No. Uh, no. I’m sorry, Your Honor. Um,

I get a little emotional when I hear so in questioning what type of father breed he is, could you elaborate on that? I can, uh, I can give you an example. Yeah. When Chris and Damira was, um, Was in prison or kidnapping, or was it attempted murder? Mr. Black, Be careful, I’m sorry. Anyways, when she was away doing time in prison and so many people were appalled at all of the things that she had done, I, I’m, what I’m meant to say was all of the.

Things that she allegedly had done, All Brady did was take care of Rachel personally. He, he never said a bad word against her mother. He always tried to shield her from what other people were saying, but most importantly, he was desperate. But little Rachel never found out that her mommy. Stabbed her great granddad Vic, right in the chest.

Sister black. I’m sorry, sorry, sorry. It’s just with all that going on, Brady made sure that, that Rachel got to see her mommy as often as possible. He always put Rachel’s feelings first. It isn’t that what good parents really do anyway.

Thank you Ms. Damara. Do you have any questions for Mr. Black? Actually, I have one for the court.

Mr. Black is here to testify to Brady’s character, right? Yes. And that’s appropriate. But is he a good judge of character? His wife went on a three month crime spree and he didn’t even seem to notice. So isn’t it possible that he only sees what he wants to see and turns a blind eye to the rest?

Case you can’t leave. We don’t even know what’s wrong with you. Okay, so is knowing going to make a difference? Yes. Dam it. The ISA medical. Lab is working 24 7. When they identify what Orpheus infected you with, okay, Then they can call me and I’ll come back. But until then, I wanna be at home, hopefully with you.

How are the girls this morning? Little green around the gills.

I’m not here to play games. So get straight to the point.

Okay. Think you’re making a big mistake. Well, I don’t, Yeah, of course you never do. You have no idea what’s wrong with you. You have no idea what’s coming. You’re right. I don’t, and it really galls me just to be sitting around in this God forsaken room waiting because, because it seems like I’m already dead.

God rabbit, I, I don’t want sympathy. I just don’t I, Or sentiment. It’s not sentiment. It’s love. I know it is. I’m sorry, I, I’m doing this the way I always do it, which is impulsively and I, I should have told you or tried to explain it to you and it’s just not fair. I know, Kate. I don’t care about what’s fair.

I just want you someplace where you get help. I’m not me here. Okay. And if I have a short. I don’t wanna spend it like this and asking you to understand Roman, but I’m leaving with you too.

This is funny to you. Yeah, Yeah. It amuses me that only you would be dumb. Sorry, literal enough to actually believe that the pen is mightier than sword . Oh, but it now, I couldn’t get a sword past those cops out there. No one questions a pen, even though if I jam this into your carotid artery. An air bubble.

Your brain killing you. And what’s, if you don’t tell what you did to Kayla?

Michael, you’re doing just great. Yeah, I, You’re doing everything you need to do right now. It’s a process, you know, overcoming a agoraphobia is a process and, and you, you have to take it one step at a time. And that, that, that cliche really is true. The first step is the hardest. Sorry. And you’ve taken that already.

Yeah. I’m very proud of you and, Okay. Call me anytime you need. Bye. You know, you really shouldn’t be working.

Said the pot to the kettle. Your immune system took a bigger hit than mine. Yeah. Did. I’m just, I, I’m, I’m just trying to get myself distracted from what’s going on. The custody hearing. Yeah. I know it’s bad name, but I don’t know what judge in the world would a grant custody of a child to Kristen Damara.

Fuck, Your Honor. The witness’s wife is not on trial, but his judgment is his wife stopped and threatened to kill two prominent citizens. Doug and Julie Williams. That is not relevant. It’s relevant that at the time he didn’t even seem to notice, and even when that what she did is a matter of public records.

He’s still married to her. Apparently he’s pretty easygoing when it comes to right and wrong. She assaulted her own son-in-law, locked my brother’s mother in the Crip. She locked you up in the Crip, John. But hey, to air is human right. I hope you choke on your hypocrisy. Be careful. Mr. Black, you said that your son is a good father.

We both know that he is, but what kind of standards are you applying? I mean, you are married to a woman who threatened to murder Sierra Weston’s relatives with torches. If they, if they tried to prevent, said woman from kidnapping her. I mean, John, you don’t set the bar very high, do you? Your Honor, my mother was not in her right mind when these alleged acts took place.

Oh, right. The devil made her do it again. Oh, and were you possessed by the devil as Wellness Grady? Objection. The devil framed me. Said, Are you, Are you listening to this, Your Honor? I mean, these people are the ones that I’m going to trust with my daughter this Damir. You are skating on extremely thin ice.

Move on or sit down. Okay, sorry. I apologize, Your Honor. Just one more question. John, can you tell the court where Dr. Evans is today? I mean, why isn’t she here supporting her stepson, who she claims she loves like her own child? Because at this moment she could be dying. You miserable bitch.

I know you’re mad at me. No, I’m not. Liar. Okay. I am mad. I think what you’re doing is stupid, willful, and totally irrational, but then, Also sit here and, uh, say, I have no right to be mad. I didn’t fall in love with you because you were rational. I don’t care why you did. I just care that you did. Hey, good morning.

I’m, I’m sorry. I don’t mean to interrupt. No, that’s okay. Um, nice to see you. It is, What’s wrong with. Uh, look, if you came by to ask about Clyde and your mom, we’re, we’re not thrilled about it either. But there’s nothing we can do. No, this isn’t about Clyde. Actually, Kate, I was hoping for your help, I mean for Brady.

What kind of help? Please testify at Rachel’s custody. Tell the judge that you don’t think that Brady killed Philip.

If Philip’s alive, I’ll deliver him to you personally.

That’s news. Anybody from Fire Phillips, Steve?

Steve’s not going to find film. You don’t know that for sure. I do know

I’m calling a recess. I think we could all use a break. Court will reconvene in one hour. Dad, what’s going on with mom? I’m sorry. She’s really sick. She said, What? What’s, We don’t know. It’s all about Orpheus. He didn’t just kid, never her and Kayla and Kate. He infected them with some kind of a biotoxin.

What? Oh my God. And why don’t, why don’t you tell us? She wouldn’t let me. She didn’t want you two to be distracted and worried about her when you had this going on that that’s just like my heart. I have to see her. I’m on my way. Come on, let’s go. I’m coming.

Brady, please wait.

Go ahead. I’ll, I’ll be there as soon as I can. Oh, Brady, don’t let her go to your, into punching her in the face.

What is it you want?

I think you really need to try and get some sleep. Can’t I can’t sleep. Not until I have some idea of what’s going on with a custody hearing. Well, I think John’s testimony is really gonna help. I’m worried. I’m worried about John. He was trying to sleep in the chair, but could hear him having nightmares all night.

I imagine Steve is going through the same thing. Same thing. He’s gone to see Orpheus. Well that won’t help. Yeah, we’ll try telling Steve to wait and be patient for America The same man. Men of action. I’m just so scared. God knows what he’s gonna do.

How much you heard? Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent. See, what the hell are you doing?

Oh God, no. Impeccable timing. Constable. This man’s trying to kill back away. Steve, you back. Away it out. No, stand it out. You think you’re gonna help anything ending up in a jail cell? No. My hero. Look at me. Look at me. Just go, Wait, what if I want press charges? I mean it. I mean, go kiss sweetness for me. No, no, no, no.

Get on.

Be, Oh, you told her dad, you’d, um, just kind of slipped out. Dad said, You don’t even know what it is. Um, we’re working on it. I’m gonna go check with the ISA lab. Okay? Thanks.

I can’t lose you, honey. I’m not going anywhere.

I just wanna say I’m sorry about your mom. I love it. Try to see him human. I didn’t know, I didn’t know she was ill braid. If I had, I would never have pushed jump like that. If, if you had, you would’ve thrown it in his face. Okay? Just drop the high moral tone. You have your whole family lined up behind you to keep me from Rachel.

You can’t expect me to not fight for her. You can drop the hole. I’m fighting for my daughter routine because it is a load of crap. This is not about Rachel. This is about you and your sick compulsion to win every single hill for you. Every little mole hill is a hill to die on. You are your father all over.

Yes, I am. So think about it pretty, If I die for a mole hill, imagine what I would do to keep my own daughter. Mm-hmm. , if you hear it, my own daughter, This is not about a little girl for you, Christ. It’s about ownership. You know, there was a point, a very low point, mind you, where I thought I could, I can do this, I can share custody with Kristen.

But after seeing the way you behaved in this c. I will do anything to keep Rachel safe from you. Anything.

The idea that Brady killed Philip, thanks to Kristen. Now it’s. Black cloud looming over the courtroom. I mean, I thought I’d seen Kristen at her worst, but now she’s just being feral. And do you think that, uh, Kate could help? Well, yeah. When, when Brady denies everything, Kristen just has this way of looking at the judge, like, what else is he gonna say?

But you, Kate, you or Phillip’s mother, the judge would believe you. We don’t know. That’s true. Look, I know that I’m asking a lot of you, and I know that it’s, it’s very painful for you to talk about Philip. Okay. Um. I’ll think about it All right.

Right. Okay. Well, don’t put yourself out there anything. It’s just the life of a little child. Okay. Sorry. Didn’t mean to interrupt your breakfast.

Oh, come on. Don’t look at me like that. I, I sent it. I’ll, I’ll think about it.

Um, when you finish, Breakfast promised me or go upstairs and, uh, get some rest. Where are you going? What do you think to tell the judge that Phillip is alive?

You wanna tell me what that was about? I was gonna kill. Would you stop me? Oh, that’s a great idea. You’re gonna kill a man who’s handcuffed to a chair in a police station, but smart that you shouldn’t have stopped me. He’s in police custody. He can’t hurt anyone anymore. You know what? That’s just not true.

How do you.

I’m just a little tired. That’s all. That’s all. I, I didn’t, uh, want you to know about this. We had to,

All right. Well, I, I’m gonna be just fine. I’m getting all the kind of help that I need and, and, you know, trying to see her all the times. So what I need you, what I need you to, Is go back to the hearing and fight like hell for Rachel. You better do what she says cuz she never swears

Well, I I love you. Oh, I love you. Yeah. It’s the courthouse. Recess is almost over. I will be back as soon as I can’t. Yes, yes, yes. Final art. Let’s do this. Okay. Okay. Give him hell, kid my best.

Those kids,

we did good. Yes, I did.

Roman, please don’t do this. Don’t do this to me. If you tell that judge that Phillip is still alive, the FBI is gonna track him down and they’re gonna put him in prison when all he needs is help, he’s getting better, but he, This is. He couldn’t deal with this. He could send him right back over the edge and then I will lose him.

Okay. I can’t stand by feeling like Christian, take Rachel away from Brady. That would be wrong on every single level. Okay. Okay, so I will go to the judge and I will tell him that I, I don’t think that Brady killed Philip and risk Christian getting Rachel. Think about that, Kate. Think about what that little girl’s life would be like.

And if you do this to help Brady, he’ll know what it cost you. And I think that he will ask for leniency fulfilled. Oh gosh, we don’t know that. Yeah. But what we do know is, Brady didn’t deserve what Philip did to him, and he sure as hell doesn’t deserve to lose his daughter because of it. Oh, that’s not fair.

No, no, no, it’s not. Because Philip is my son, Roman. Yeah, and you are in a horrible position. I know that Kate. I got kids. Hell, I got Sammy. I understand that. So you know what, Kate, it’s your. All right. Think about it. I won’t say anything about Philip unless you tell me to so I repeat. Think about it. You are told to stay away from these proceedings.

I just need word with Brady. Well, he’s not here. Do you know where he went? If you wanted you to know, he would’ve told you. Don’t you think he’s got enough on his mind that he doesn’t need you stalking him? I don’t think someone who broke outta prison put in fake teeth and wore a house. Coach impersonate Susan Banks should be talking about stalking.

Well, a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do. Oh, you mean like manipulate your just back from the dead brother to try to woo me away from Brady? Don’t know what you’re talking about. Oh, like hell, you don’t. But guess what? Sister has a broke and bizarre as that was Brady. And I saw right through your plan.

Oh, and I was so wanted you to be my sister-in-law. Hmm. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go over my closing argument. Have fun. Clarence Darrow.

Judge, Uh, your Honor, um, I’m sorry, can I, can I speak to you for a second?

Well, you really called her that in court. Yeah, I called her a m bitch doc. She kept pushing my buttons until I just lost it. I just, I might have blow that case for Brady. I’m sure Judge saw through what Kristen was doing.

You know how I feel about Kristin. Having said that, I know how much she loves that little girl. Like I can’t imagine that she would put her own needs before that child’s.

It’s okay. That’s okay. Coqui. No, no, no, no. Kayla is trying to get sort of the ISA lab and see if she can get our testified. I hope the hell they can finally figure out what this is.

Hey, hey, listen. You need to go lie down. No, no. I’m, I’m fine. It passed. How did it go with, or, I got nothing. Sorry. Well, I didn’t have high hopes, but please tell me that he’s still among the living. Did Sean call you? No, but I didn’t think that you were gonna go over there and politely ask for his assistance.

What did you do? I just tried to persuade him to tell me what he’d done to you and when he. Sorry. Oh, it’s the ISA lab. Uh, Dr. Johnson

Family Court is back in session. Ms. Brady, do you have any more witnesses? Uh, no, Your Honor.

That all listen to your closing argument. In conclusion, I maintain that it’s in the child’s best interest that Rachel Black remain in the custody of her father, who has provided a loving, stable, saying environment no matter what kind of chaos her mother has created. Thank you, your Honor.

We will now hear Ms. Dara’s closing statement,

Your Honor, it would be dangerously wrong to leave my daughter in the custody of a man who was so obsessed with Ms. Lane, a baby thief, that he would kill his own uncle to be with her.

Your Honor, I am, uh, Roman Brady, retired commiss of the Salem Police Department, and I have something to say that I am sure will be relevant to this case.

Hey, so good to hear your. I, You sound so much better. Oh, that’s great. Philip me. Um, No, no, no. I’m fine. Sure, sure, sure. Go to your therapy. I was just calling to to tell you that I love you. Right.

Your on I protest. Roman Brady cannot just barge in giving one sided statements on Brady’s behalf. Both sides have already rested their. Why are you so sure the commissioner’s statement would be in favor of Mr. Black because he hates me. His old family does. Your Honor, I would like to hear what Mr. Brady has to say.

I’m sure you would, but that’s not going to happen. Your Honor, Please. You’re too late, Mr. Brady. I’ve already made my decision.

Gimme a call when you get this. Okay. I’m glad you’re back. I might need some medical attention. Oh, you’re gonna be fine. Unfortunately. Oh, that seems to me you’re letting your personal feelings take precedence over your professional responsibilities. Like father, like son, you were terrorizing three innocent women, one of which is my aunt.

So if I were to go with my personal feelings right now, I would pound the crap outta you. I’m terrorizing three innocent women to punish their guilty as health, significant others. They will watch the women they love die. And then, and I’ll finally be Aven.

I just got off the phone with the ISA lab. They’re having a hard time. Hard time with what? Hard time. Figuring out Kayla. Figuring out what’s wrong with Kayla. You really need to, No, no, no. They need time. Whoa, whoa.

So what happened? Did you tell them about.

Turns out I didn’t have.

The judge had already decided to rule in Brady’s favor. Oh, did that just happen? It really did. This is an outrage. Rachel belongs with me. Well, the court doesn’t think so. And let me put you on notice, Kristen, any interference or or harassment on your part, and you will end up back in court a criminal court.

I have full custody. Oh, thank God. Thank God you did this. Didn’t you swear I saw you skulking around earlier, Kristen, you did this. You showed that judge exactly who you were, and I think it was a big mistake. What exactly did you do?

Your Honor, could I please talk to you? I’m sorry, Ms. Lane, but I can’t talk to you about the case outside court. I know that, and you don’t have to say anything, but please if you would just watch this. What is this? It’s video footage of Kristin Damara attacking me in my own. And I know you can’t use any of her past crimes for your decision because of her.

Pardon? But this happened after she was released from Statesville. This should have been entered into evidence. I couldn’t give it to Brady’s attorney because if Kristen found out that I gave you that footage, she would try even harder to make our lives miserable and turned Rachel against me. Now, please.

Your Honor, all I’m asking is that you watch it and make your own decision. Should a woman like that be responsible for raising an innocent.

I guess the judge put Rachel’s welfare first.

Believe me, this isn’t over.

I feel like I can breathe again. Oh God, Rachel’s gonna be okay. And. I think we’re all.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Brooke: Oh, you’re probably still on your conference call, but I… I just wanted to touch base. Sorry I missed you last night, and again this morning. You left before I woke up. Anyway, just call me.

Hope: So you and ridge weren’t together last night?

Brooke: No.

Hope: Why is that? What happened?

Brooke: Steffy happened.

Steffy: So this is a joint effort?

Zende: Thomas and I were hanging out after eric went to sleep, and then we thought we’d put the time to some creative use.

Thomas: Yeah, I think it’s pretty good, don’t you?

Steffy: Yeah, I think it’s really fascinating. You’re both blending your styles together. That’s cool. You should show this to hope. This just proves my point.

Thomas: What point is that?

Steffy: Instead of being competitive, we’re collaborating. It’s kinda like what’s happening with our family. We’re all coming together.

Zende: I think you’re right. We forresters, we’re in a good spot right now. Granddad is happy with donna.

Thomas: Yeah. You and finn are reunited.

Steffy: Yeah, and douglas, he’s spending more time with you. All we really need is our mom to reunite with our dad and we’d be great.

Taylor: Steffy! Seriously? Is no one safe? Are you seriously trying to enlist zende in your quest to reunite your dad and me?

Steffy: It’S… not what I’m doing.

Liam: So– I mean, you know, not that your company isn’t always a treat, but… why the hell are we here?

Bill: What do you mean why the hell are we here?

Wyatt: He’s asking why you summoned us.

Liam: Yeah, like– like, is there a problem?

Bill: No, there’s no problem. Can’t I just wanna have lunch with my boys?

Liam: Really? That’s– that’s all this is?

Bill: Yes. A simple lunch that has nothing to do with business. How about you show some appreciation? All right, give me a kiss.

Wyatt: Oh, jeez.

Liam: Oh, god. Stop it, please. Okay, okay– let me just make sure– you know, I have, like a, like a concept of this in my brain. You just wanna catch up?

Bill: Exactly.

Liam: Okay. How about we start with the fact that ridge walked in on you and brooke in each other’s arms?

Bill: Oh, that’s funny. That’s very funny.

Wyatt: You and brooke, dad? Again?

Bill: Alright, you see? This is how rumors get started. It is not how liam made it sound when he told you. And it’s not how I made it sound when I told you.

Liam: You–

Bill: No, no, no. We were not in each other’s arms. That’s a gross exaggeration.

Wyatt: Is it, though?

Bill: No. I mean, yes.

Liam: A-ah!

Bill: I mean, there was nothing going on between brooke and me. All right? Forrester walks in, and makes something out of nothing like he always does because the guy is riddled with insecurities. All right? I was just there to talk to brooke about katie.

Wyatt: So how did you end up in a– what, a hug? Cuddle? Brace, maybe?

Bill: A little embrace.

Liam: Right. Well, given how, you know, ridge feels about you, don’t you think any amount of proximity to his wife, especially in his own home, would be a bit… triggering?

Bill: Oh. Triggering.. That’s like the new word. Everybody gets triggered. All right? This is all I know. God forbid that ridge doesn’t control every aspect of brooke’s life. Why she puts up with poser the clown, I will never understand.

Hope: Steffy happened? So, what does that mean?

Brooke: She’s making sure that her influence is felt. The romantic time that I had planned with ridge, it didn’t happen because he didn’t come home in time for us to be together.

Hope: And why not?

Brooke: Because he was over at steffy’S. And she made sure her dad didn’t come home ’til very, very late.

Steffy: Zende, please tell my mother that I’m not enlisting you.

Zende: She wasn’t, but I’m always up for helping a worthy cause.

Taylor: Okay. Yes. And I love your philanthropic heart, but don’t let my kids work you. They’re relentless.

Thomas: But it’s for your own good.

Steffy: Yeah. Dad’s, too.

Zende: We were just talking about what a great place the family’s in. Finn and steffy got their miracle. Thomas and douglas have been bonding like crazy.

Steffy: We just want dad to come to his senses and leave brooke for you. The world is full of make or break moments.

Bill: You know, you think you’d be used to by now? Or at least accept that it’s none of my business. But every time I see forrester, undeserving of brooke, I wanna grab him by his neck and say, “you fool, don’t you realize how lucky you are to have this magnificent woman?” I mean, he should be on his knees every day thanking whoever blessed him. But instead he manipulates brooke, and he takes for granted, and… she stays. Or goes back.

Liam: Yeah, and ridge does the same.

Wyatt: I think that’s the destiny part. You know where they end up together no matter what.

Bill: What am I missing? Forrester’s an uptight, entitled waste of skin. What does she see in him?

Liam: Well, like… do you actually wanna know the answer? Or is that rhetorical?

Bill: Oh, yeah. No, no. You have some insight, I wanna hear.

Liam: Okay. I mean, you live there long enough, and you start to see the other side of ridge. The side that you don’t really get to see. He’s a, he’s a family man. He’s looser. He… he laughs more. He actually has a sense of humor, believe it or not. But the connection between him and brooke, the deep love that they feel for each other, it’s pretty undeniable up close.

Bill: What do you know?

Liam: I– that. That is what I know. I know that. And I also know that there are outside forces working against them. Steffy and thomas, for example.

Hope: Tell me everything. What did steffy do?

Brooke: Well, it was getting later and later, and ridge still didn’t show up. So of course, I was concerned. So I, I called him, and guess who picked up the phone. Steffy.

Hope: But how did she even get ahold of ridge’s phone?

Brooke: I don’t know. But she said ridge was there, and enjoying himself with her and thomas and taylor, and he didn’t want to be disturbed. And I had to remind her that I am his wife. And then you wanna know what she had the nerve to say to me?

Steffy: Not for long.

Hope: She actually said that to you?

Brooke: Yeah. I can’t believe it. She said he was happy, and he was having a really good time, and– because he was with the woman that he truly loved. And then she hung up the phone.

Hope: Wait, what? Mom, please tell– did you call back?

Brooke: No. I mean, what was the point, really? By the time ridge got home, I was already asleep.

Hope: Oh… and then he had that early morning conference call, so I bet he has no idea what steffy even did.

Brooke: I’m sure he doesn’T. Unless she told him, which I’m sure she didn’T.

Hope: What gives steffy the nerve to refuse to allow you to talk to your own husband? I mean, she has no right. I have long been an advocate for peace between our two families. For understanding, for acceptance. But taylor and steffy– they’ve gone too far.

Brooke: You’re right. I completely agree. I think it’s time to have a talk with taylor.

Hope: I think it’s time I have a conversation with steffy about her blatant campaign against your marriage.

Zende: You don’t pull any punches, do you, steffy? You just come right out and say it.

Steffy: I believe in the direct approach.

Thomas: I’m with my sister on that one.

Taylor: Do you see, zende? Relentless. You know, kids, sometimes the thoughts that pop into your head should never come out of your mouth. Like wanting to end your dad’s marriage.

Zende: It sounds like you could use a moment alone with these two. And I gotta make some calls, so I’m gonna hit the road, and I’ll see you back at the house.

Taylor: Bye, zende.

Zende: Bye bye.

Taylor: I love you both so much. I really do, so much. And I know that you wanna see your father and me happy together. But please stop. Both of you, please. Just focus on your own lives and your– your own family. And don’t worry about your dad and me. Okay?

Steffy: We’re always gonna be worried about our parents.

Thomas: Yeah, and we have your best interests at heart.

Steffy: And we know exactly what that is, even if you’re not ready to admit it yet. Which is– it’s obvious. The way you and dad look at each other, it’s beautiful, and it is criminal that you are wasting this much time. You could be together right now, planning your future.

Taylor: You’re both impossible.

Thomas: But you still love us.

Steffy: Mm-hmm.

Taylor: I really do. I brought in ensure max protein

Wyatt: So, when did steffy and thomas become the bosses of ridge and brooke? And don’t they have their own stuff going on?

Liam: Excellent questions.

Bill: Yes. Kids should stay out of their– especially grown kids should stay out of their parents’ lives.

Liam: Well, that’s the thing. It’s not just the whole full-frontal assault. I mean, ever since thomas basically started holding douglas hostage, there have been all these forrester family gatherings that, you know, yours truly is not invited to, of course, but hope is, as douglas’ mother. And if she wants to see the kid, she’s gotta keep going over there, which keeps her in thomas’ orbit.

Bill: Oh, when he’s at his best playing the caring, devoted dad.

Liam: That’s– exactly. That’s exactly right. It’s classic thomas. And hope just doesn’t see it that way, in my opinion because I think he’s getting into her head.

Wyatt: It’s not working, though, is it?

Liam: Well, I– I don’t know. I keep expressing my concerns. Obviously, it would be devastating for me if– if hope fell for it again. But– but there’s also another piece to this, which is, you know, hope keeps getting distracted by the stuff she’s seeing when she goes over there. Like steffy and thomas constantly disparaging brooke to ridge, and then taylor taking every opportunity she can to be all cozy with ridge, and get all cute. It, like, stresses hope out. She doesn’t know, you know, whether to tell brooke, how much to tell brooke, because it would all most certainly ratchet up the whole forrester-logan war again, which she doesn’t want.

Bill: But nobody has to coddle brooke. I mean, beneath that sweet smile andthat twinkle in her eyes… brooke’s a fighter. I mean, it’s beyond me, but especially when it comes to ridge. She won’t let anyone undermine her marriage.

Thomas: I’m sorry that call took so long.

Taylor: Oh, that’s okay. It’s all right. Are you headed to work now?

Thomas: Uh, yeah, just for a little bit. And then I’m taking douglas to the skate park.

Taylor: Oh, yay. It’s a great day for it. God, I love seeing the two of you have so much fun together.

Thomas: It really is great. I mean, spending all this time together, day in and day out. It’s amazing. I mean, I missed so much time with my little boy.

Taylor: Oh, but honey, you’re making up for it now. And douglas is happier than he has ever been, and it’s all because of you.

Thomas: Thank you for supporting me.

Taylor: I will always support you. I love you so much.

Thomas: I love you, too.

Taylor: Have fun.

Thomas: Okay.

Taylor: Okay.

Thomas: If you are looking for my sister–

Brooke: No. I see what I’m looking for.

Taylor: Okay, well I think this is your cue to go. Tell douglas I said hi.

Thomas: You two play nice.

Tayor: Hello, brooke. What’s wrong?

Brooke: Uh… your daughter’s out of control, and I expect you to put a stop to steffy.

Paris: Is it just me, or are these designs fantastic?

Steffy: They really are. I love that they have, like, a whimsical feel to it, too.

Paris: Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

Steffy: Right?

Paris: Has hope seen these?

Taylor: No, not yet.

Paris: Oh, hey hope. Have you seen zende’s latest design for “hope for the future”?

Steffy: Hey, hope.

Hope: Um, I actually haven’t, but I’ll take a look at them later. But I was hoping to have a moment alone with steffy?

Steffy: Go. Thank you for your input.

Paris: Yeah, anytime.

Steffy: Yeah. Here, I’ll take this.

Paris: Yeah.

Steffy: See you.

Paris: Okay.

Hope: We’ll talk later.

Steffy: We were talking about your– your line. Dunno why you chased paris out of here. It’s a little inappropriate.

Hope: Oh, wow. What a word choice. Inappropriate. Kind of like you deliberately trying to sabotage my mother’s marriage to ridge? Be ready for whatever life throws your way.

Taylor: Okay, here’s what’s not gonna happen. You coming over to my daughter’s house, expecting me to do anything. Why are you coming after steffy?

Brooke: It’s the other way around, taylor. Look, we’re all happy that finn is alive. And he’s back with steffy, where he belongs. The family’s together. Family is so precious. But wedding vows are very precious, too. And steffy seems to have forgotten that. She is blatantly trying to interfere in my marriage. And I need you to put a stop to her.

Taylor: Of course, steffy is in favor of ridge and me getting back together, yes. Every kid wants their family to be whole.

Brooke: She’s not a kid anymore, taylor. She is a grown woman. A grown woman with children of her own. And you know what? She needs to focus on that. Not on my marriage with ridge.

Taylor: Now you’re not going to believe this, but I just told steffy and thomas the exact same thing. I did. I understand where they’re coming from, but I also understand why you’d be angry.

Brooke: I’m frustrated. I was very frustrated last night.

Taylor: What happened last night?

Brooke: You really don’t know? Okay, well, it was supposed to be a special evening with ridge and me, and we were gonna have time to reconnect. Just the two of us. But it didn’t happen. He didn’t come home in time.

Taylor: Yeah, he was here having a family night. I’m sorry that your plans didn’t work out, but to be fair, you had all day to coordinate with ridge about your– your night. You know, you can’t blame steffy for that.

Brooke: I called him.

Taylor: You called him? What– when, when he was here already? And I didn’t– I didn’t hear his phone. Didn’t– don’t remember him on the phone.

Brooke: I called him and steffy answered. She said that he was busy. She didn’t put him on the phone.

Taylor: Oh, god. I don’t wanna believe that.

Brooke: Well, you have to believe it. You can ask her yourself. She is playing the gatekeeper. That’s what she’s doing. She refused to put my husband on the phone with me. And she’s doing that because she wants my marriage to fall apart, so that you… you can have your chance with ridge.

Hope: You’re screening your dad’s calls? Refusing to let him speak to my mother, who, by the way, if I need to remind you, that’s still her husband.

Steffy: You’re overreacting, hope.

Hope: Oh, really? How so?

Steffy: We were having a family evening. Obviously, there was no emergency on brooke’s end. My mom, thomas, the kids, me, we deserve quality time with my father.

Hope: Are you kidding me? Ridge spends more time at your house than he does at home. And that’s all part of the plan, isn’t it?

Steffy: What are you talking about? My father can go wherever he wants. If he wants to stay at my house, go for it.

Hope: My gosh, you are so obvious. First, it’s all the talk, telling ridge that he should go back to taylor, that he’s better off with her than he is with my mom.

Steffy: That’s exactly what I believe.

Hope: But to actively interfere in their marriage? That’s a step too far. Come on, steffy, I thought we were past this. What happened to bringing the families together? What happened to putting the children first?

Steffy: This isn’t about kelly, hayes, douglas, or beth. This is about my parents. A future that was stolen from them. This is about my father’s happiness. About a woman who loves him unconditionally. Who will never throw herself into the arms of another man. My father’s starting to feel, like, what it’s like to just be. No drama. No pain. Just love. And that’s exactly what my grandmother wanted for him all those years ago. Well, she’s not here to fight the battle anymore. But I am. Brooke’s disrespected my father long enough. It’s time for my father to come back to his real family. The forresters.

Nikki: [ Exhales sharply ]

[ Knock on door ]

[ Exhales heavily ]

Deacon: Nikki?

Nikki: Hello, deacon.

Deacon: [ Laughs ] I can’t believe this. I-I haven’t seen you in forever. I-I didn’t think I’d ever see you again.

Nikki: Yeah, well, I didn’t think I would ever have to see you again, either, but I needed to speak to you, so I tracked down your phone number and i sent you a message.

Deacon: Well, you are about the last person that I thought would be on the other side of that text — summoning me to a mysterious hotel room, nonetheless.

Nikki: I wasn’t sure you would show up if you knew it was from me.

Deacon: Well, you’re wrong. Of course I would. Come on, nik. I’m happy to see you. You know, I got to admit, I’ve — I’ve thought a lot about you over the years, you know, all the things that we went through together.

Nikki: Is that right?

Deacon: Absolutely. I wondered how you were doing. Oh, and, nik, one more thing. You look good.

Diane: [ Breathes deeply ] Hello, victor. You’re looking well.

Victor: There something you need?

Diane: Well, I just haven’t seen much of you lately, not since you came by to say hello when I returned. But, um, I thought maybe we could catch up.

Victor: I recall I had two unfortunate occasions when I saw you. One was when you engaged in a slapping fest with my wife and the other when you crashed the chancellor-winters launching party.

Diane: Well, I’ve been on my best behavior ever since.

Victor: Really?

Diane: Mm.&

Victor: Good. Well, then I think that’s all the information you and I need to exchange, right?

Phyllis: Hey. This is interesting, seeing you two together.

Diane: Phyllis.

Phyllis: Hello.

Diane: Hello.

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ] I feel the need to sit down and watch. That’s all.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: [ Clears throat ]

[ Whispering ] What are you talking about? Do I have to ask?

Lily: Thank you for joining me.

Devon: Yeah. It sounded urgent.

Billy: Is this about nate’s resignation?

Lily: Uh, no, no. Devon and I talked about that already, and I am optimistic that nate will change his mind. So we’ll discuss that later. Right now, I want to talk about taking chancellor-winters public. Now that jill and I have done the research and looked at all the numbers, we are very, very eager to pursue this ipo. And I’m really hoping to have this be a unanimous decision and to have your support by the end of today.

Victoria: It made more sense to meet here than at my office.

Nate: Agreed.

Victoria: You know, I’ve been considering the information that you brought me about jill and lily’s desire to take chancellor-winters public. Do you still think that they’ll be successful?

Nate: No guarantees. But I believe it’ll happen.

Victoria: Based on?

Nate: Well, jill was fired up about the idea, and with lily backing her, I’d be shocked if devon and billy didn’t ultimately go along with it.

Victoria: I’m sure the two of them could be very persuasive. Provided that they can make this happen, I’m interested in buying as many shares as possible to help me obtain the majority stake in the company. I mean, it’ll be an extraordinary addition for newman, don’t you think?

Nate: Couldn’t agree more.

[ Laughs ]

Victoria: Although I know that jill and lily are very savvy, and I’m sure they’ve already orchestrated the deal so that the family retains the bulk of the stock.

Nate: That is correct. 51% of the stock will remain in the hands of the chancellor-winters senior executive team.

Victoria: Well, then it would be impossible for newman to have the level of involvement that I’m hoping for.

Nate: Not necessarily. I’d be willing to sell you my shares. They, along with what you can purchase on the stock exchange, will make newman majority shareholder.

Victoria: That would be a huge risk on your part.

Nate: It’s one I’m willing to take, if and only if you’re willing to give me what I want in return for my help. (Grump) there is no perfect, only practice.

Victor: I apologize, but i don’t recall asking anyone to join me.

Phyllis: Mm. Well, I’m not going to join you.

Victor: Ah.

Phyllis: I have to-go order. I’m gonna get it and leave. I was here earlier for a lunch meeting, but we didn’t really have lunch, did we?

Diane: Mm. We met up with summer and kyle.

Phyllis: Mm-hmm.

Victor: How riveting.

Diane: Mm. Uh… oh, look, phyllis, here comes your to-go bag. I certainly don’t want your lunch to get cold.

Phyllis: Oh, don’t worry. It’s gazpacho. I’m all good.

Diane: Well, I have a few things I’d like to say to victor in private.

Phyllis: I’m sure you do. Um…I wish you luck. Good luck.

Diane: Why do I need luck?

Phyllis: Because he sees right through you, just like i do. Good luck.

Victor: Hey, phyllis, good seeing you.

Phyllis: You too.

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Nikki: Save your flattery, deacon. This isn’t a reunion for two old friends. Or have you conveniently forgotten that you almost ruined my life?

Deacon: No, I haven’t forgotten. But I did try and make it up to you.

Nikki: Oh, yeah. As if you could, after everything you did to me. You took advantage of me when i was vulnerable. You manipulated me into marrying you. And then you pretended you were on my side when I thought I had killed diane jenkins. You didn’t give a damn about me.

Deacon: Nikki, I swear that’s not true. Yes, I did set out to use you in the beginning, but then i started to have feelings for you. And then I fell in love with you. Now, look, there wasn’t a lot that meant anything to me back then, but you did.

Nikki: Thanks for the ride.

Deacon: Oh, come on, nikki. You’re hanging on by a thread, alright? Look — great. There’s booze in the house. I-I’m not leaving.

Nikki: Well, feel free to watch.

Deacon: Please don’t do this. I — look, hey, we can go to another meeting, alright? I — there’s another one in 20 minutes.

Nikki: Salute.

Deacon: [ Sighs ] So, uh, everything at the meeting was just a bunch of B.S., Right? I mean, obviously, you’re — you’re off the wagon.

Nikki: What I said was, um, “one day at a time.” “One hour at a time,” is what i said, and at this hour, I need a drink.

Deacon: Is this about diane? Is this about the night that she died? I saw you in the park. I know.

Nikki: You know what? This is probably very awkward& for you, so you should probably go.

Deacon: Nikki, please. I’m not gonna say anything. I’m not gonna tell anybody what I saw. Please, just…know that.

Nikki: I asked you to leave.

Deacon: We — we can talk. I just want you to know that i understand. W-we don’t have to talk. Just please put the glass down.

Nikki: Will you go away?

Deacon: I-I can’t do that.

Nikki: Fine.

[ Glass thuds ] I can.

Deacon: You don’t have to believe me, but there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t wish that I handled things differently.

Nikki: [ Scoffs ] Don’t stand there and tell me about your regrets. And don’t tell me that you tried to save me from taking the fall for diane’s murder when you helped her fake her own death. Yeah, that’s right. I know the whole story now, how you helped her escape from genoa city, leaving me and a lot of other people to suffer in her wake. Did you really think that the truth would not come out?

Deacon: No. No. I wasn’t that naive. I would like to know how you know.

Nikki: Did you not see the article about diane returning to genoa city? Talia morgan wrote it. It’s generated quite a lot of buzz.

Deacon: I don’t know anything about any article, and I didn’t know that diane went back there.

Nikki: Okay. Well, she recently revealed herself to jack, and —

Deacon: Wait. Jack abbott?

Nikki: Yes. Jack abbott.

Deacon: Wow.

Nikki: And she didn’t hesitate to let him know the part you played in her demise.

Deacon: [ Chuckles ] Diane, diane, diane. Threw me under the bus, huh?

Nikki: Instantly.

Deacon: Hmm.

Nikki: She’s not loyal to anybody but herself.

Deacon: So, that’s what this is all about, right? You, uh — you wanted to confront me about my deceit. So, what now? You getting ready for a little revenge?

Nikki: Yes. But not on you… so long as you do everything I ask. Hi, my name’s steve.

Billy: I appreciate your passion, lily, and my mother’s, of course, as far as the ipo goes, but I think we have a lot more to consider before we get a full consensus.

Devon: Yeah, I completely agree with that. And I don’t want to be rushed into some quick decision because of an arbitrary deadline.

Lily: Devon, no one is doing that. I really think that once you see the numbers that you’re gonna cha–

Devon: Even after hearing the numbers, though, I know I’m still gonna want to hold off, okay? I made that clear. I think — I know that the merger just happened not that long ago. So, if we go public, that’s gonna be two major moves within a matter of months. I think that it’s too soon for a number of reasons. And on top of all that, I’m not a fan of giving up autonomy as a family-owned business and losing control of everything that matters and ending up having to answer to shareholders instead of doing what we think is best for our company.

Lily: Look, you know what? I’m gonna e-mail you some things, okay? Financial analyses, projections that are pursuant to an ipo. And I really think that you’re gonna be impressed by what you see.

Victoria: While I am very grateful for what you’ve done already, I’m also interested in you continuing to give me information that might be helpful, as I’m planning to make my move.

Nate: You’re on.

Victoria: Alright, then. I have a question for you. Before you offered to be my eyes and ears, you said you were looking to leave your job, alluding to the fact that maybe there’s been some difficulty working with your family. So, are you still part of the inner circle?

Nate: I’m determined to iron things out with my cousins. And I’m confident I will have access I’ve always had.

Victoria: Excellent. Then I view you as the perfect person to help me achieve and oversee this transition, both while you’re at chancellor-winters and when you join me at newman.

Nate: So, you’re agreeing to let me run the company once it’s under the newman umbrella?

Victoria: Consider it done.

Diane: I’m sorry phyllis interrupted us. That woman has a habit of inserting herself into situations where her presence is not welcome.

Victor: There something you wanted to say to me?

Diane: Yes. I feel this conversation is long overdue.

Victor: I honestly don’t remember there being anything that you and I have to discuss.

Diane: Well, that’s — that’s true. We do have an ugly history, and I’ve done a lot to atone for, probably more than I could hope to accomplish in this lifetime.

Victor: Mm.

Diane: But I want you to know that I don’t carry any ill will towards you or nikki.

Victor: The feeling isn’t mutual.

Diane: I understand, victor. But I want you to know that I am doing everything I can to prove that I’m not the person you knew before. And — and I will keep doing so for as long as it takes.

Victor: I’ll pass this on to nikki — alright? — When she returns from her trip.

Nikki: Diane says she’s waited this long to reach out because she wanted to be the best possible version of herself for her son — kyle.

Deacon: And I’m sensing that you don’t believe that.

Nikki: Oh, please. Little by little, she has wormed her way back into our world. And she even wrangled a job for herself at the business that her son and his wife run. It’s infuriating. I’m not gonna tolerate it anymore.

Deacon: What do you expect me to do about it?

Nikki: Diane tells a story about how hard she worked to pull herself together, that she lived a very clean, modest life when she lived here in los angeles. Of course, I don’t believe that for a second. I think she is hiding something that could ruin the new image that she has created for herself. And that is where you come in, deacon. You owe me, and it is time that you pay up. So, if you know what’s good for you, you will tell me everything I can use to expose that bitch, get her out of our lives for good. Woman tc: My a1c stayed here, it needed to be here.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness. Lucky me. I keep on running to newmans and ex-newmans everywhere I go today.

Victoria: Whatever that means.

Phyllis: That means I just ran into your ex-stepmommy

[Chuckles] Diane and your dad at society.

Victoria: Uh, what woman is not my step anything.

Phyllis: Oh, well, I mean, whatever. Your dad wasn’t buying what she was selling. That’s good.

Victoria: You know, frankly, I’m less interested in what my dad is up to with diana and I’m more interested in what my mother is doing in L.A. About diane.

Phyllis: What? No. Your mom is in L.A. Meeting with the forresters about summer’s wedding dress.

Victoria: Oh, so then this trip isn’t news to you?

Phyllis: Hardly.

Victoria: Then you are also in the know that she’s there to get the goods on diane.

Phyllis: You know about that?

Victoria: I don’t know why you didn’t just admit it. Could have saved us both some time.

Phyllis: I know. I’m keeping nikki’s private life private. I’m being discreet.

Victoria: Since when does my mom confide in you?

Phyllis: Well, we found common ground when it comes to diane.

Victoria: I don’t understand. And I don’t appreciate you encouraging my mother to fly halfway across the country just to face off with deacon sharpe. You understood what kind of position that would put her in and how that would cause stress for her, both physically and emotionally. What the hell is wrong with you, phyllis?

Deacon: Nikki, as attractive as you are when you’re making threats, I can’t help you. I wish I could, but I can’T.

Nikki: I don’t believe you.

Deacon: I’m not jerking you around. Look, you’re right. I-I do owe you for the way i treated you.

Nikki: Yeah, I know you do.

Deacon: I just don’t have that much to offer. I mean, after diane died, we went our separate ways. You know, I saw her a couple times over the years when she was living her life as taylor jenson.

Nikki: Okay. Okay. So, think back to those meetings. Any detail, no matter how small. It could be very important.

Deacon: [ Sighs ] The only thing that comes to mind is I thought she had a lot of money.

Nikki: Wha– why would you think that?

Deacon: ‘Cause every time i saw her, she was buzzing around in a bentley.

Nikki: Really?

Deacon: Mm.

Nikki: Because she said she was just getting by working as a real estate broker, selling small homes, just a tiny commission.

Deacon: She led me to believe the same thing.

Nikki: Well, what about that car?

Deacon: I-I don’t know. I just figured she was dating some rich guy. You know, every time I’d see her, there was this guy in the backseat sitting next to her. I don’t know. You know, I’d ask her about it, and she’d shut me down.

Nikki: Hmm. I wonder why she would be so secretive about that with you. I mean, wouldn’t you tell your co-conspirator the truth?

Diane: Is nikki on a business trip for newman?

Victor: [ Chuckles ] Yes. Important business.

Diane: Ah.

Victor: You worried she may stumble across something while she is on the west coast?

Diane: Victor, I have already told anyone who would listen that I have nothing to hide. I know that you and nikki already investigated my time in los angeles, but you couldn’t come up with anything to use against me, could you?

[ Scoffs ] You know, you and nikki both have checkered pasts, but you’ve managed to put all that behind you. And I just — I just wish you would extend the same courtesy to others, mainly me, as I build my life here.

Victor: I bet you do.

Diane: Victor, I pose no threat to you or your loved ones. The only reason I’m in genoa city is to be with my family.

Victor: That’s your choice. But since my family lives in the same town, you’re gonna have to deal with the repercussions.

Lily: Now do you see the benefits of an ipo?

Billy: [ Sighs ] I mean, assuming these numbers are correct, they’re — they’re pretty damn impressive.

Lily: Right. Okay. So, I mean, does that move the needle at all for you? Are you moving closer to a “yes” vote?

Devon: [ Sighs ] Lily, one of the biggest reasons, for me at least, for doing this merger is because we wanted to create a unified, family-owned business and a legacy, a legacy that we can leave behind for our kids and our grandkids. And I think that if we go public, we’re gonna lose that completely ’cause we’re gonna have to end up answering to a board of people we don’t know and it’s all gonna become about profits and share prices and pleasing our hedge funds. We’re gonna have to completely change our mind-set, and I don’t know if it’s gonna be for the better.

Lily: So, what I’m hearing is that you’re not convinced.

Devon: I just feel like there should be more owning a company than turning a profit, as crazy as that might sound, because i feel like there should be a personal satisfaction you get from coming to work. And as a public company, that’s gonna go out the window.

Lily: Look, devon, I get it. I get it. And I-I believe part of that. I do.

Devon: Yeah.

Lily: But I really think that our vision would still define the future of chancellor-winters going forward. I mean, to me, this is an opportunity to grow and to make an impact. You know, we’re allowing people who believe in us to invest in us and give us the money that we need to make this a bigger and stronger entity. This is the next step in our evolution. I mean, this is our moment to reach for the stars. We can’t pass that by.

[ Knock on door ]

Lily: Nate. Hey. Come on in.

Nate: Hey. Um… I can see you’re busy, so, uh, I’ll get right to the point.

Devon: Please do.

Nate: I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting, and I realized i was wrong and you were right about me overstepping. I need to grow into my position and pay my dues like everyone else. No matter how strongly I feel about my ideas, I need to respect the opinions of others. Especially those in the hierarchy above me. I regret I resigned in anger, and I’m here to ask for another chance.

You might take something

for your heart…

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Can you imagine a world where moms and kids agreed

Nikki: I suppose it’s possible diane could have been seeing a man who was wealthy. Or maybe she fell into money herself, whether it be illegally or legal. She was always very resourceful.

Deacon: Ain’t that the truth.

Nikki: Mm. Well, whatever the real story is, maybe the reason she kept her distance from you is she didn’t want your grubby paws on her money.

Deacon: [ Chuckles ] You know, I’d like to tell you I’m offended by that characterization, but given my past, I guess I can’T. Your theories are solid.

Nikki: Yeah, well, theories do me no good. I need proof. So, keep thinking about these meetings with diane. What else do you remember?

Deacon: Nikki, I wish I could tell you what you want to hear. I really do. But I-I can’T. Look, I admire the way that you’re trying to protect your family. I would love nothing more than to help you as a way of trying to make amends.

Nikki: There is no making amends for what you put me through, no forgiveness. The only thing I want from you is information. And if you don’t have anything to give me, I will send you on your way and forget I ever knew your name. Okay. We’re done here.

Deacon: Nikki, wait.

Phyllis: I think, in a way, it might be a good thing that she’s meeting with the man who was aiding and abetting diane. It could be — I don’t know —

Victoria: Cathartic?

Phyllis: Yeah.

Victoria: Yeah, I — i understand that. But we’re talking about deacon sharpe.

Phyllis: Yeah. I mean, I think we all regret having anything to do with him. Ugh. He’s a pig.

Victoria: Yeah, which is why I preferred that my mom stay away.

Phyllis: Yeah, I’d prefer that, too. But, I mean, listen, if she could deal with victor newman on a daily basis, she can deal with deacon.

Victoria: Oh, that’s so funny.

Phyllis: Okay. This is the thing. She may have been — I don’t know — a bit of a train wreck all those years —

Victoria: “Might have been”? Really?

Phyllis: Yeah, she may have been, but she’s not like that anymore. She’s not. She’s different. And she’s not gonna let deacon play her, especially when it comes to the goal of getting diane jenkins out of town once once and for all.

Victor: Is there a problem? Are you surprised by what I’ve said?

Diane: Yes, victor, there is a problem.

Victor: Really?

Diane: Yeah. When I chose to come back to this town, I was under no illusions about the long, hard road I’d have to travel. And there have been countless smears and insults and threats. And I have — I have rolled with it all. I have handled it all with grace because I understand what emotions my presence provokes.

Victor: Do you now?

Diane: Yes, victor, I do. But I didn’t just come back from the dead to suffer endless abuse. I have worked so hard to start over, and I have too much to lose to have anyone tear me down or scare me off. I will never let that happen.

Victor: Should I bring in the violins now?

Diane: [ Chuckling ] No.

Victor: You know that I enjoy a good fight. And I can see your fighting spirits are up. But you know where this will probably end, right? Girls trip.

Nate: I, um, guess I stunned you all speechless.

Lily: Look, thank you for coming here and saying that. I know that wasn’t easy for you.

Nate: I have a new perspective now, know exactly what I want, which meant checking my temper and ego at the door.

Lily: Well, I’m — I’m just curious. I mean, what — what changed your mind?

Devon: Yeah, I was about to ask the exact same thing ’cause this is a pretty big shift for you.

Nate: You’re right. After we got into it yesterday, I had a chance to cool down, take a step back, and think about what you’ve all been trying to tell me. I’ve been doing a lot of talking and not a lot of listening. And now I finally heard you.

Billy: On a delay, it sounds like. Of course it happens. Happened to me many times.

Nate: That is the perfect way to put it — a delayed reaction that could only occur once I got out of my own head. It doesn’t mean I don’t feel strongly about my ideas. I would love to see them come to fruition when the time is right. But I realize I overstepped. I felt underappreciated and attacked, so I lashed out.

Devon: Yeah, you sure did.

Nate: Because I was only thinking about myself. I wasn’t considering the bigger picture — the relationships with my family, the need to present a united front for the sake of chancellor-winters’ success. I realized it would make the company look less stable for the ipo if word got out that I’d jumped ship. Assuming you’re planning on moving forward with it.

Lily: Uh…uh, well, we — we haven’t decided yet. That’s what we were just talking about.

Devon: Nate, if we were to hae you come back after everything you just said, how are things going to be different between you and me? How’s that dynamic gonna change with us?

Nate: I’m your coo. I report to you. The final word lies with you and lily, and I won’t circumvent your wishes. That being said, I would like for you to be open to my suggestions, even if they’re not ideas you’re comfortable with at first. And if jill or lily or billy sees merit in what I have to offer, I’d like for you to give weight to their opinions.

Devon: So, you’re expecting, like, a majority-rules type of situation?

Nate: No, no, no, not at all. You’re the boss. But simply put, if we’re going to make a sincere attempt at operating as a team, I hope you will meet me halfway.

Victoria: I want it in digest form twice a day. Any mention of the company, no matter how cursory. Oh, and I may need you to do some research for me in the near future. Alright. Excellent. I knew I could count on you. Bye-bye.

Victor: That sounds to me as if you’re about to acquire another company to add to the newman portfolio.

Victoria: Time will tell.

Victor: Care to share?

Victoria: Well, I, um — actually, I do have something in play that you might find intriguing, but I’m not quite ready to present it to you yet.

Victor: Hmm. Well, well, well. Interested to hear all about it. By the way, I want to tell you that I’m very proud of what you’ve accomplished here so far. You and your mother make a hell of a team, you know.

Victoria: I know that mom is in los angeles meeting with deacon about diane.

Victor: And you have concerns about that, right?

Victoria: I’m still concerned about it. I-I’m very concerned. Have you heard from her?

Victor: Unh-unh.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] God knows what games he’s playing with her now.

Victor: Hmm.

[ Door slams ]

Nikki: Of course you were holding out on me. How typical of you and your tenuous relationship with the truth.

Deacon: Take it easy. It just occurred to me in the moment, alright? I don’t even know if it’s significant.

Nikki: Alright, will you just tell me?

Deacon: It’s not something i tell you. It’s something I — I have to show you, alright? I can bring it to work — the restaurant.

Nikki: Oh, my god. Are you actually trying to lure me to your place of employment?

Deacon: Why? You want to be lured?

Nikki: Ugh!

Deacon: Come on, nik. No. Just — look, you come, I’m gonna give this thing to you, I’m gonna hand it over, and once I do, you can pretend you never knew me. Okay everyone,

Lily: I mean, you know where I stand. I would love to have nate back. But it’s gonna take all of us to make this work.

Devon: Yeah. Well, listen, nate. I can — I can try and be more open to your ideas and to hearing you out, and I can even give you more leeway in certain areas. But the back and forth that we’ve been having between us — it’s been terrible. And it really has to stop. I mean it when I say that. I want to put it completely behind us. So, if you think we can do that, then, sure, I’m fine with giving you a second chance.

Billy: Well, as the king of second chances, I’m just gonna say it. Welcome back.

Lily: Yay!

Nate: Thank you. Thank you.

Lily: I’m so excited.

[ Laughs ] I see a bright future for all of us.

Nate: Mm. I couldn’t agree more.

Lily: [ Chuckles ]

Victoria: Look, I know that mom said she could handle anything that deacon threw her way, but what if he tries to mess with her head again? Or maybe he flies into some kind of a rage because he’s being confronted about helping diane fake her death. This could all go south so quickly.

Victor: Do you honestly think I would let her go there without providing security? I mean, my security team has eyes on her the entire time. She is in no danger, okay?

Victoria: Look, that’s no guarantee.

Victor: My baby, if I thought your mother wasn’t up to dealing with this fellow, I would have found another way to handle him, alright? Your mother’s strong. She asked me to have faith in her, and I do.

Victoria: So do I. I just hope she can get whatever dirt this bastard has on diane and comes back home and she never has to give deacon sharpe another thought ever again.

Talia: What happened? Are you alright?

Nikki: Yeah, I’m fine. Seeing deacon brought up a lot of bad memories.

Talia: From all that you told me about him, how could it not?

Nikki: Mm. He’s still the same snake that he was, still has some of the old charm, which he tried on me. It was disgusting.

Talia: I’m sorry you had to deal with that.

Nikki: Well, I knew what i was getting into when I decided to come here. But I did get one thing out of him.

Talia: What’s that?

Nikki: He said that during the few times he saw her in L.A. That diane seemed to be living the high life. And that contradicts the story she has told.

Talia: Interesting.

Nikki: Yeah. We need to dig deeper. We need to find out what that lifestyle entailed.

Talia: That would be my instinct, too. Any ideas?

Nikki: Well — oh, and then deacon says that there’s something that I might be interested in seeing and he wants me to meet him. Like I would ever go anywhere he suggested. I mean, I don’t even know if this thing actually exists.

Talia: Obviously, the decision is up to you, but off chance deacon has something worthwhile in his possession…

Nikki: You think I should go.

Talia: All I’m saying is, i wonder if meeting with him one last time might be worth the effort.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: You made it out unscathed! Good for you! So, how’d it go? The mea culpa — did it work? Did you get shot down? Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Diane: You know, we’re — we’re here to work, not to do whatever it is that you’re doing.

Phyllis: Well, I’m caring for a co-worker.

Diane: Oh, please stop.

Phyllis: Stop what? Caring?

Diane: Stop being so damn disingenuous.

Phyllis: Now you’re hurting my feelings.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Phyllis, I have a meeting to go to. If you’ll excuse me.

Phyllis: Are you gonna apologize to me?

Diane: Oh, get over yourself. And get out of my way.

Phyllis: Oh, there it is.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: There it is. There it is. This is the real diane. This is the real diane. I knew you would start to crumble. This is the first crack in the armor, isn’t it?

Diane: Alright, where do you and victor get off? Where do you get off throwing stones at people? You have both lied and cheated and deceived others countless times! You’ve both been charged with a litany of crimes! And you know what? By the way, I’m not the only person who’s faked my death. Victor has done it half a dozen times!

Phyllis: But who’s counting, right?

Diane: And yet you continue to think that you get some free pass where you just torment and punish me!

Phyllis: I’m not doing that.

Diane: I am warning you, phyllis. You keep pushing me, and you will regret it.

Phyllis: There you are. There you are.

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Phyllis: That is the diane I know and hate. There…you…are. And this is the beginning of the end for you.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Pop music plays ] Enough. He’s perfect the way he is.

[ Drum roll ] Curtis: Ladies and gentlemen, sisters and brothers, hold your hats or hold a hand, because coming to the savoy stage with a brand-new jam is a hot new star who’s on the rise. So kick back and enjoy what you see with your eyes or what you hear from his captivating production. And without further ado or any more introduction… put your hands together and let the music do the talking!

[ Cheers and applause ] They’re ready for you. Brook lynn… they can wait. Problem is, I can’t wait another minute to be with you. Lucy: Earth to brook lynn.

[ Slams fist on table ] Brook lynn? Yes. I’m — I’m so sorry.

[ Clears throat ] Can you please repeat that? Okay, where were you just now? Right, because you certainly weren’t here.

[ Chuckles lightly ] What are you doing? W-what’s wrong with you? You tell me. What happened to brando? Hey, uh, any word on brando’s cause of death? No, nothing yet.

[ Sighs ] Sorry, work. Uh, I assume, uh, you were up all night. Hard to stop the press when you have late-breaking news.

[ Papers rustle ] Anna: Yeah. Thanks for the use of your contacts. I have feelers out. I know. Let’s just say that I knew this wasn’t going to be easy. Yeah. I — it’s — it — it appears to be more dangerous than I anticipated. Yes, of course I’m being careful.

Stop worrying, robert, please. Why don’t you take that energy and focus it on finding the person that attacked ava and killed brando? Yeah, I’ll be in touch. Thank you. Bye. Oh, sorry for startling you. I don’t want to interrupt your phone call. Uh, you know, maybe in order to avoid any future misunderstandings, you might want to leave the sharp objects at home. I just picked this up from the marina shop. It’s the same brand and type missing from the quartermaine property. Mm-hmm. Like the weapon used on ava and brando? That’s the theory. I’m on my way to G.H. To speak with the medical examiner. Oh, okay. Well, if you need any assistance, you know how to reach me. Thanks.

[ Sighs ] But the matter I need off my plate is one I need to handle myself. As soon as I get this mess sorted out with jordan and my divorce papers… we will get married. Is there anything that I can do to help? Well, no. I spoke with jordan last night. And how did that go? Well, uh, let’s just say the divorce papers won’t be an issue.

You didn’t really answer my question. [ Chuckles ] Does jordan feel as you do? I don’t mean to be intrusive —

no, no, you’re not. My relationship with jordan isn’t only ours — you’re a part of that, too. I’ll tell you all about it

[Sighs] When I see you. Just be careful out there. Always. Selina: Mr. Ashford… it seems things are getting dangerous in port charles. Michael called me last night and said brando was attacked, but that he was gonna be fine. By the time I got through to sasha, brando was dead and she was in pieces. I know. I understand. Everyone here is in shock, as well. One — you know, one minute, brando was conscious and in good spirits, and the next thing you know, he was coding. How does something like that happen? I don’t know. Trying to find out. Dr. Robinson sent out his bloodwork. We’ll — we’ll try to find the cause. And until you do, if you do, brando’s family is suffering, and that mystery is only gonna add to their grief. The invader quoted an anonymous general hospital source, which means somebody here knows enough to talk to the press about the fact that ava and brando were attacked with a hook, and I want to find that person and talk to them myself. To what end? So I can find out who killed sasha’s husband. That’s kind of the job for the cops, and… you’re no longer a cop. Phew. I got the last sparkling water. You’ll have to tell the runner to get another case. I’m sorry. Ugh. Why can’t the fridge in the break room adequately chill a-a simple sparkling water? I mean, how are we supposed to be our best or most creative when we’re not even sufficiently hydrated? Speaking of our best… lucy and I were just discussing, uh, brando.

[ Sighs ] Poor sasha. Poor gladys. Yeah, it’s horrible — and poor social media response for deception — or lack thereof. Right. Well, I-I did — I did draw something up this morning, and I can send it right over, you know, before I publish it. No, no, no. You — you don’t have to send it to lucy or me. Just send it out now. Yeah. Don’t you want to weigh in on something this sensitive regarding a partner? No, uh — that’s the point. Something this sensitive, timeliness is crucial. Well, I just found out about brando this morning. And why is that? Because we called you last night. We texted you, we e-mailed you, and then we called you again. Well, I-I turn my phone off at 9:00 — you know, work-life balance, right?

[ Laughs nervously ] Okay, that’s — that’s true, but isn’t it kind of possible that maybe you’re focusing more on your life and not work? Yeah, like, maybe 101% for life and -1% for work. Okay, we feel like maybe your heart isn’t totally with deception. Like, maybe it’s totally with… chase. I’m sorry about brando. Yep, me too. How’s sasha? Is this on the record? Well, no — no, I’m sorry. I just don’t want to be blindsided. I meant to give you a heads up, and time got away from me. So what can I do to make amends? Sasha — she’s having a hard time. So if you just — you know what I’m saying? Keep that in mind. I will do my best. I mean, we’re always gonna, you know, agree on what’s best for our daughter. Absolutely. Speaking of which… let’s go. Oh. Victor: Well, you know, in england, if you mispronounce that word, you’re sent to the tower of london and your head’s cut off.

[ Kristina laughs ] Well, it’s true.

[ Chuckles ]

I think we should agree on a plan of action first.

[ Laughs ] No, no. You and i are going to stay out of this. What are you doing?! That’s my daughter. And victor is your uncle. That makes him kristina’s great-uncle. I’ve spent more time than I want to as my father’s lieutenant. It’s better to stay on his good side. Trust me — let sonny take care of the bad. You are so totally wrong.

[ Chuckles ] What’s victor wrong about? Hi, dad, hi, baby. I was just teaching great-uncle victor the correct pronunciation of the word “scoune.”

[Scone]

[ Sighs ] And I was telling kristina that in europe, we call it “sconn.”

[Scone] But in america, my daughter is correct. Back to work for me, uncle vic. Glad you enjoyed your scone.

[ Chuckles ] Well, always a pleasure, but I must be off. Victor, victor, victor. How many times do I gotta tell you?

[Whispering] Stay away from my family. Oh, well, I’m afraid, like it or not, kristina is my family, as well. Natasha. Ready?

[ Dramatic music plays ] Way to kick a guy when he’s down, bro.

[ Sighs ] Yeah, I’m sorry, bro. I don’t like saying it any more than you like hearing it, but the reality is, you’re not — you’re not part of this investigation. Sasha and I bonded when were trying to help michael and willow, and now she is going through hell, and — and there’s gotta be some way I can help her. Yeah, I-in a way the police can’T. I mean, do you got a lead? I mean, is there somewhere you can go that they can’t? Come on, bro, you know the drill. Alright, say you do some digging around and you find something. Without a badge, without a warrant, without jurisdiction — that piece of evidence gets invalidated, they could throw the whole case out, alright? And then you can really kiss your law enforcement career goodbye. If you are implying that I am trying to solve this, to make myself look good to the higher-ups, you could not be more wrong. I’m not angling to use brando’s death to get my badge back. I know that. Look, all I’m trying to say is the pcpd, they need a good cop like you back on the force, not out in the cold for good. And who knows when or if I will get reinstated? I mean, what am I supposed to do in the meantime? Be there for sasha. She’s got plenty of people there to comfort her. All I have is time and frustration. If I were you, I would spend time with someone I care about, and I would channel that energy into a cause that makes a difference. I know you have both. You’ re accusing me of shirkingmy work duties for a guy? Let’s see. Yesterday, all morning, you spent looking at chase wallpaper to select it for your computer screen. Oh, and somehow, our call waiting music — oh, it’s now chase’s demo. Yeah, and everyone who’s had to wait on hold has thanked me for it. You know, since when is it a crime to enjoy a relationship? Okay. Lucy and I, we are happy for you and chase. So, so, so happy, and it’s okay to focus on your boyfriend sometimes. But really, you are spending our work time promoting chase’s career and his music, okay? So if you don’t start promoting and taking care of deception and stop mooning over chase and doing everything about his work and his career, then we’re gonna just part ways — fire you. You want to fire me? No! No! We are not going to fire you. Okay, but you better

[Tapping on table] Get your head back in the game now.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Duly noted. I do have to run. What? No! Where are you going? Uh, to get my head back in the game. I’ll see you guys. Wait, wait, wait, wait. But — alright, so I’m guessing that the matter on your plate is the life-changing information you gathered on curtis that’s likely causing a lot of problems. My own problems continue to multiply, despite having kept the information to myself.

[ Sighs ] So when you took a long, hard look at why you wanted to disclose said matter, you didn’t like what you saw in yourself. My self-examination got derailed by a tough question from curtis. He asked if I’m trying to hold on to our marriage. What gave him the idea that you might be? A volunteer postal worker. And that’s all I’ll say about that. Okay. What did you tell him? Did you lie? I told the truth.

[ Sighs ] It just wasn’t the answer to the question he asked. Ms. Wu, is there a poker game going on in the back that I’m not aware of? It’s a bit early in the day for a high-stakes poker game. Then I can’t imagine a good reason why you would be in my nightclub. I do have a reason, just not a good one. Hope you know what you’re doing. Well, apart from a lesson in pronunciation, I was just offering kristina my professional assistance in the wake of her close brush with a murderer. It would be a mistake to provoke sonny corinthos.

[ Chuckling ] I can’t believe you’re intimidated by a local mob kingpin. Sonny pursues his own ends quietly, but he is dangerous when he’s provoked. Which is why I’m keeping you around. Amongst other reasons. Ah, nice seeing you. Let’s, uh, reconnect soon. No, no, no. You were gonna give me a date when I could visit charlotte. I will. But right now, I have a more pressing issue to attend to.

Adieu.

So what do you want from me now? 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. An apology.

[ Scoffs ] I’ve seen you twice since your engagement to dr. Robinson and you never said a word. I had to hear about it from my nephew. Apparently, that’s all anyone is talking about. Oh, you exaggerate, selina. Dr. Robinson is a very lucky woman. But I wish you had shared your intentions with me. Why? I could have connected you to a fine jeweler that I know. And, um, how much would that favor have cost me? No favor. A courtesy from one partner to another. You see, partners are equal, but clearly, we are anything but that. I’m open to expanding your role in my organization. No thanks, selina. I prefer my independence. If life has taught me anything, it’s that independence is an illusion. If you won’t take my gift, then accept another, to honor your engagement.

[ Sighs ] You’ve done enough. You don’t even know what it is.

[ Footsteps approaching ] Hi. I hope we’re not late. Jordan: Of course I still love curtis. It wasn’t my choice to end the marriage, but… he couldn’t forgive me for keeping too many things from him.

[ Buoy bell ringing, waves crashing ] Why are you still keeping secrets from him? If I told curtis what I know, it could destroy his relationship with portia. And where does that get me? Gratitude? A second chance with him?

[ Scoffs ] Unlikely to get either. What about your own self-respect, jordan? I wouldn’t feel proud of myself for hurting two people that are in love. So [Sighs] I’ve decided that curtis and portia’s relationship is no longer my business. Perhaps not. But is curtis’s happiness your business? Perhaps? I mean, you — you had a great marriage when you were together, didn’t you? You still love and respect him. You just said that. But by withholding this information from him, you’re basically deciding what he can and cannot handle, what he should and shouldn’t know. I mean, is that fair?

[ Sighs ] Thanks for listening. I’ll always listen. Uh, forgive me for intruding. Commissioner, is there something you want to tell us? Actually, I do. Be careful. We know the how of ava jerome and brando corbin’s attack, but we don’t know the why, which makes it harder to predict who might be the next target. Hi. Hey. Wait. Aren’t you off today? Oh, I-I don’t really know. Is it today or yesterday? Tomorrow? I-I have no idea. You never left the hospital?

[ Sighs ] Britt and, um, terry had their hands full with the police, and I volunteered to take over. I wish you would have told me. So you could stick around and relieve me? No, I-I know that you had a prior commitment with your daughter. It’s true. And besides, trina’s back in the dorm, curtis is working late, and with everything that’s going on around here… yeah, you prefer the hustle and bustle of the hospital. Focusing on work helps keep my mind off of things, like what really happened with brando. I went over everything, finn. I w– I went over all of his vitals, the post-op reports. He should have made a full recovery. I’m hoping the tests the lab ran last night is gonna provide some answers. And if not, maybe we can get some answers from the invader. I read the article linking the attacks and disclosing that a hook was used in both. I also happened to notice that they cited an anonymous G.H. Source. I wonder who spoke up. What went on with you and victor? Hold on. Hey, kristina. You okay? Yeah, I’m good, dad. Save your concern for sasha and gladys. Our concern is for you right now. You witnessed that attack. Honey, we have every right to be concerned.

[ Sighs ] Great-uncle victor thought so, too. And he had some pretty good advice. Victor was checking up on you? He offered to hire someone to protect me from whoever went after brando. I mean, great guy, but overreact much? In this situation, your uncle victor has the situation sized up correctly. Maxie: Okay, don’t choke on your gummies. Look, take nice, even breaths… right. …And breathe away your frustration over brook lynn. Mmm. Mm-hmm. Mmm. Blq might just be bfe. Bye forever. Brook lynn is in love, lucy, and that is not worth firing her over. Look, we’ve spoken to her. Let’s give her a chance to do better. Mmm! Mmm! Okay. Okay. But, mmm, maybe — maybe we should just check with the headhunters just to see if there’s some other social media talent out there, maybe? Can we put a pin in that and just give brook lynn one more chance? Think of all the mistakes we’ve made for love. And I’d hazard a guess you’re long overdue another chance.

Did I get the time wrong for chase’s audition? Because it seems like we’re interrupting. Apparently, there’s been a mix-up. I didn’t realize that there was an audition on the books today. I knew I should have come in person to confirm and not gone through our assistants. Uh, it looks like curtis is really busy, so we should come back another time. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Let’s go. I’m sure that a successful entrepreneur such as yourself can eke out 2 minutes to, you know, hear chase cut loose.

[ Sighs ] Well, I do know from the nurses’ ball that kid’s got a set of pipes on him. I could do with a refresher, but I always got time for a star on the rise. I even saw an item on the news this morning, which means that the national outfits are sniffing around, and that’s all thanks to the invader story. Well, whoever did decide to speak to alexis’s reporter may have been responsible for bringing additional attention to the case, which is such a good thing. Yeah, i really, really doubt the party in question was looking for any kind of attention. Well, otherwise they would have gone on record. Hmm. But I’m sure this civic-minded individual’s only goal was to alert the public to a killer in their midst. The best of intentions…

[Sighs] …If only they didn’t threaten to disrupt an investigation that’s barely started. If either of you has an idea as to the identity of this civic-minded individual… please let me know. Your mother and I are going to keep you safe, not victor. I’m grateful for the concern, but, I mean, focus on molly. She had a thing with brando. She must be feeling awful. Honey, molly didn’t witness the attack.

[ Sighs ] I can hardly be called a witness. It was dark and raining, and I’m not even sure if the attacker was male or female. Brando’s killer doesn’t know that, kristina. If I had gotten a good look, jordan would have made me sit down with a sketch artist and post the likeness on social media and on the news outlets and every lamppost and telephone pole in port charles. But there’s no posted likeness, so the attacker knows that I’m not a threat. You can’t read the lunatic’s mind. Neither can your father and I, which is why we talked about it. We agree. We think it would be best if you would just come stay with one of us just for a little bit.

[ Scoffs, laughs ] Hard pass. Yeah. It won’t matter if you take a little break here. Not quitting my job, folks. No one said anything about quitting. Pcu is back in session, and phyllis is slammed with students at night. I’m not going to leave her hanging. Phyllis will understand. O-of course she will. Just tell her you’re scared. She will understand. But I’m not scared. I have so much respect for your courage. I think it’s so admirable, honey, I really do — t-this has nothing to do about courage. This is an objective evaluation of the situation. For god’s sake, do you really want to risk your life for minimum wage slinging beer in a dead-end job?! Victor, you are such a flirt.

[ Chuckles ] Guilty as charged. But I was merely referring to your wayward companion — marvin, isn’t it? Martin.Martin. Any word on a return date? Ah. No, no, not quite yet. Oh, criminal to allow such a very beautiful woman to go unchaperoned.

[ Laughs, pretends to cough ] I’m sorry. Are you feeling alright? Sorry. Sorry. I’m just trying to wrap my head around the idea of lucy and a chaperone. Hey, wait a minute. No, don’t engage. Don’t engage. It’s not worth it.

[ Sighs ] Yeah — is there someone we can talk more privately? Oh, I would absolutely love that, but [Stammers] We’re in a-a huge, very important business meeting. We are? Yes, we are. Remember? We’re discussing the marketing of the cunning concealer. Oh, we had that meeting yesterday. Oh, yes, you’re right. But then we’re talking about the testing of the bluffing blush. Right. They, uh, passed with flying colors. Oh.

[ Chuckles lightly ] Lunch? Hmm. On me.

[ Laughs ] Enjoy. Should be fun.

[ Sighs ] I thought she’d never leave.

[ Sighs ] Now, at last, I have you all to myself. I’ve kept you waiting. I’m sorry. That’s okay. I figured you were with your father. Anything relevant to charlotte? No. He keeps putting me off. He’s more concerned with kristina right now. She witnessed brando corbin’s attack.

[ Sighs ] I know. Horrible. I heard. So victor’s playing family man? Oh, he’s — he’s very devoted to family, as the cassadines define the term. We eat our young. Not you.

[ Buoy bell ringing, waves crashing ] We’re going to bring charlotte home. Thank you. When you say it, I almost want to believe it’s true. The moment I decided to have a child… from the moment she was born, she was in danger.

[ Sighs ] Just because she was my daughter… …there were forces, people, enemies who would be tempted to use her as leverage against me. I had to be careful. I just wasn’t careful enough. My own father, victor cassadine — turns out he was more lethal than anyone.

[ Sighs ] She doesn’t even know to be scared of him. I’m so frightened. Good. Good? Yeah. To be brave, sometimes we need to be frightened. And right now, we need to be brave. Why? Anna, what’s happened?

So, I engaged one of robert’s contacts to surveil the so-called school where victor is — is — is holding charlotte. Okay. Less than 24 hours after taking the assignment, the operative wanted out. Apparently, victor’s name, it — it produces a kind of chilling effect. So if robert’s people are gonna back out, then you and i may be on our own. We have lucy. Don’t you think that now’s the time for us to maybe reconsider her involvement? Why? Well, it was one thing when I thought maybe she could get us in the door, but if robert’s people are not going to take the job because they’re afraid of victor, I can’t in good conscience put a civilian’s life at risk. Then we may have to cut her loose. Before she gets in deeper. Yeah. You know, I have worn myself out trying to reach you over the last two days. Oh, is — is that so? Yes, I’ve left you messages. I’ve sent telegrams — both the written and the singing variety.

[ Laughs ]

[ Chuckles ] Oh, well, dear me, you know, I-I didn’t get any of that. I am simply gonna have to just fire my assistant. Oh, please. Let’s do that together. It’ll be a bonding experience. Oh, no. You know, I have a feeling that might be a bit of a violation of hr rules. Oh, well, then we’ll just have to rewrite the rules over our long-awaited lunch. You know, about that… uh-oh, I’m sensing bad news. Well, it’s just that sasha gilmore, um, her husband died. He was murdered.

[ Sighs ] So, you know, I-I think I would just feel very uncomfortable about having lunch with you. I mean, it would be very, very tempting, but under the circumstances, it’s not a great idea. I hope you understand. I understand nothing of the sort. That escalated quickly. Well, technically, moving a conversation from a threat to your life to your career would qualify as a de-escalation. We are not here to discuss kristina’s career. We’re here to discuss her safety — you know that, right? A subject that happens to provide mom with a segue into my life choices. Well, maybe if you had made different choices and taken a different life path, we wouldn’t be — okay, a-a path more reputable? One that’s less “dead-end-y”?

[ Sighs ]

[Stammering] I-I — limited. I meant limited.

[ Sighs ] This is a great job in the short term. Yeah, but it’s not law school. No one said anything about law school, kristina. Oh, well, here’s her chance. Go ahead, mom. Do I embarrass you? What? Well — no! Of — of course not. You just think that I should quit my job here and do something, you know, uh, more productive. Go ahead, mom. Say it. You’ll feel better. Kristina, that’s enough.

[ Stammers ] Here’s what I meant. I just — I just want you to live to your full potential. And working here at charlie’s, I’m doing anything but. If you want to know who the anonymous source is, why don’t you give alexis davis a call? So I can get a “freedom of the press” and “we protect our sources” speech from alexis? Why waste my time? And you think one of the doctors here leaked the story? Prior to that article, it wasn’t public knowledge that both brando and ava had been stabbed with a hook. I’m here to lay down the law with your co-chiefs of staff about disclosing important details. Huh. But, really, you must have bigger priorities than tracking down the source in some leak to a newspaper. Believe it or not, dr. Finn, I can juggle several priorities at once. I see. So h-h-how much damage could acknowledging that port charles might have a serial killer actually do to the investigation? We won’t know until the damage is done. Remember when the invader leaked franco’s brain tumor and alexis tried to kill him, but almost killed dante instead? I wanted to keep the perp guessing. Now this person has an edge — an edge they can exploit. Dr. Robinson, this is for you. Oh. Hey. Is it — is that — it’s the test results we ordered last night. This is brando’s cause of death. I hope you don’t mind if I stay. I’m considering renting the club for a private party. I’d love to get a sense of the acoustics and how the music plays. Yeah. That’s up to chase. Uh…

[ Stammers ] Whatever. I gotta get used to an audience at some point. Thanks. Excuse me. You hate me. What? Where’d you get that? It’s just, you’re distracted thinking about sasha, and here I am, dragging you to an audition you don’t even want. Look. Is now the perfect time to sing? No. But do I hate you? Absolutely not. Are you sure? I know there’s something that you wish you could do for sasha right now. Well, I can’t deny that. Okay. So then — then — then let’s go. We’ll forget the audition. W-we’ll go see sasha, and we’ll both feel so much better. Hey, hey. Look. Sasha’s got brando’s mom and nina hovering over her. Me foisting myself on her right now — that might be more for me trying to feel useful than of being of real use to her. Well, won’t know until you try. Later. Right now, I want to do something useful for you. For us.

Now is absolutely the right time for our lunch. Oh, well, you know, I — I don’t know if I’d be very good company. I’m so distracted, worrying about sasha. Well, fortunately, I am the master of distraction.

[ Chuckles ] I will keep your mind off these gruesome events and focused on our shared interests.

[ Chuckles ] Uh, business, yours and mine, and, uh, ways of increasing your profit potential. Well, I’m always looking for a good corporate partner.

[ Breathes deeply ] Well, I think I can do a little better than that. You give me your undivided attention, and I may surprise you with a more than satisfactory cassadine infusion… of capital, of course.

Feels like the sky is falling

shattered like a vase

I’m starting to think I’m falling into place

feels like the sky is crashing

crashing over me

I’m starting to think I’m falling into place

I’m falling into place

[ Applause ] So what do you think?

[ Sighs ] I think… there’s a savoy debut in chase’s future.

[ Laughs ] Really? Of course there is. You’ve got the voice and so much more. Kid’s got talent. And you have taste. And this private party you were talking about — place is yours for 50… thousand. Do you accept checks? Sorry. Cash is king. Anna: Hey, maxie. Hi. Hi. Uh, we’re looking for lucy. She’s not in her office.

[ Laughs ] You just missed her. Do you know where she went? Nope. They didn’t say. They? Oh, lucy and victor. They left together. Your mom and I only want what’s good for you. Does what’s good for me include my happiness? Of course it does. Does that go for you, too? What kind of thing is that to say? Okay, then the subject is closed. I don’t intend on working at charlie’s until I die, but working here right now makes me happy. And I don’t intend on dying anytime soon, by crook or by hook. She’s all you. Jordan: What do the test results say? Can we make a call on brando’s cause of death? The stab wound didn’t kill brando. The weapon was laced with a toxin — a poison.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Diane: Well, this is a nice surprise, you and summer arranging for us to all meet up.

Kyle: We felt like we should all sit down together.

Diane: Oh, absolutely. I think it’s a great idea.

Summer: Mom, are you on board?

Phyllis: Oh. I mean — well, I thought it was gonna be a private lunch, just the two of us, but, gosh, the four of us? That’s a kick. Sure.

[ Door closes ]

Nikki: Thank you for coming to meet me, talia.

Talia: It’s good to see you again, nikki, but I am surprised you’re in L.A.

Nikki: I have some important business to take care of.

Talia: For newman enterprises?

Nikki: No. Um… actually, I am here on behalf of the people of genoa city who deserve to be rid of diane jenkins. I’m also going to be talking with deacon sharpe, who helped her fake her own death. I’m hoping to get enough dirt out of him to drive her from town for good.

Talia: I did some research on him for my article. His past is almost as colorful as hers.

Nikki: Yeah, it is. But he’s sure to know what diane was up to when she was living in L.A. Under that assumed identity.

Talia: Well, please tell me what you learn because I can use that information to expand the scope of my story about diane.

Nikki: Oh, I’m so happy to hear you say that. I mean, maybe if what I find is compelling enough, your editor would let you finish writing the series. Frankly, I was rather suspicious of how that was killed so abruptly after the first installment.

Talia: Well, so was I, and that is why I’m committed to turning this into a book if the magazine refuses to publish any more about diane.

Nikki: Oh, my god, that would be amazing. I mean, as long as the world gets to hear the whole sordid story.

Talia: And I get the feeling that deacon sharpe could take this in a whole new direction.

Nikki: Yeah, he could. That’s why I have to catch him completely off guard. I’m gonna confront him about everything he did with diane and how it almost ruined my life. He has no idea what’s coming.

Talia: I sense there’s more to it for you.

Nikki: What do you mean?

Talia: You’re talking tough, but you seem a little nervous. So, what exactly do you think is gonna happen today?

Nate: Imani. How’s it going? Oh. You look upset.

Imani: [ Sighs ] Is it that obvious?

Nate: What’s got you so stressed? Is it your mom?

Imani: No. Now it’s my dad. He’s been such a rock for me and mom, even amanda, but here we are, always leaning on his strength.

Nate: Okay. Did something happen?

Imani: I guess all the pressure and stress from mom was just too much. He collapsed and had to be hospitalized.

Nate: Oh. I-I’m sorry to hear that.

Imani: So here I am, terrified about mom, and now this? I’m so worried about him. I’ve got this knot in my stomach that will not go away.

Nate: I know it’s a lot, but hopefully your father’s condition isn’t too serious. Would you like for me to call his doctor, see what I can find out?

Imani: Nate, I can’t keep dragging you into my personal business. You have been so helpful, but there’s only so much —

Nate: Okay, and you’ve done more for me than you realize. At least let me return the favor.

Nick: Okay, that takes care of all the questions legal had about our new acquisition contracts.

Victoria: Okay. Well, it all looks good. But now I would like to get to the biggest item on the agenda.

[ Door closes ]

Nick: Alright. What do you got?

Victoria: I have come into possession of some huge information, something that could be quite lucrative for us, but for the time being, it can’t leave this room.

Nick: Well, you have my full attention now.

Victoria: I have learned from a reliable source that devon and lily are taking chancellor-winters public.

Nick: Seriously? That’s a huge step, given how recently they merged.

Victoria: I want newman to use this inside information to grab as much initial stock offering as possible. The goal is to secure a majority of control and several seats on the board. Are you really that wowed, or are you calculating the potential of how huge newman’s reach might be with a move like this?

Nick: Honestly, my first thought isn’t about newman at all. I want you to be honest with me, and I want to know where you got this information. Did it come from a disgruntled chancellor-winters employee? Did nate bring this to you?

Additional sponsorship

provided by… my cholesterol is borderline.

Nick: I know nate’s been having a hard time working at chancellor-winters. He’s struggling with the complications of working with his family. I’m sure he and devon have butted heads.

Victoria: The situation has become untenable for him.

Nick: But why make a move like this? It seems so unlike him.

Victoria: I don’t know. I was quite surprised when he came to me with the idea. But he has his reasons.

Nick: But it makes you wonder what happened to make him go so far as to leak insider information about his own company. It seems extremely vindictive.

Victoria: Nate’s an executive now. He’s looking at this as a businessman. He sees that it’s a smart move all around.

Nick: Obviously, he doesn’t think lily and devon would agree or he wouldn’t have gone behind their backs. So, if he’s looking at it as a businessman, my question is why? What’s in it for him?

Nikki: I-I don’t have any specific expectations for what will happen when I talk to deacon. I mean, I have a general sense of caution where he’s concerned. I mean, he has no conscience. He’s manipulative. He’s very self-serving.

Talia: Well, then it’s no wonder you’re on edge about this.

Nikki: Oh, he was perfectly fine with me being accused of a murder that he knew full well had not happened. So, yeah, I have my issues with him. I just know that I have to be focused and not let him distract me from my goal — exposing diane for the fraud that she is.

Talia: Mm. You know, nikki, my job requires me to be adept at reading people, at listening to what they’re saying and what they’re not saying. And what I’m hearing is this deacon guy has the potential to knock you off your game — or at least try.

Nikki: Well, that’s why i have to be on my guard.

Talia: You know, in my research, I learned you were married to him once.

Nikki: I don’t see how that’s relevant.

Talia: We’re talking completely off the record. I promise.

Nikki: Yeah. We better be.

Talia: Correct me if I’m wrong, but you’re about to come face-to-face with a man you haven’t seen in years, a man who, in your own words, is manipulative and without a conscience.

Nikki: Believe me, I can handle deacon sharpe.

Talia: Maybe, but it could be a good idea for you to talk this out first. It could help you to go in there feeling more solid and in control.

Nikki: Well, maybe you’re right. I mean, it would be good for me to get some things off my chest and be at the top of my game and stay in control. Off the record.

Kyle: I’m afraid you got it wrong. Summer and I didn’t invite you to join us for fun.

Summer: In fact, it’s the exact opposite. This is serious, and it’s something that we wanted to discuss with both of you.

Diane: Oh. I-I see.

Phyllis: Okay, well, this doesn’t sound good.

Kyle: Summer and I want you to know we have two priorities — peace within the family and productivity within the business.

Phyllis: Uh, okay. Well, we’re on the same page. Those are my priorities, too.

Diane: And mine, as well. No question.

Phyllis: There’s nothing that I want more than to see, you know, marchetti run smoothly.

Diane: And successfully. I hope you know how much i appreciate the opportunity you’ve given me.

Phyllis: Yeah, and it is my mission to make sure that all your dreams are realized with marchetti.

Diane: The most important thing to me right now is family harmony. Being close to you is the only reason I’m here. I can’t tell you how lucky i feel. And it means everything to me to be accepted back into your lives.

Phyllis: Well, we’re on the same page. Look at that. We are. We want to work in harmony, and we want to see marchetti succeed.

Kyle: Okay, we appreciate you are both in agreement. But summer and I will be doing the rest of the talking.

Summer: We’re glad to hear you saying all of the right things, but — I’m sorry — it’s not enough. You need to back up those flowery words with actions.

Kyle: So, here’s the deal. No more threats, no more accusations, no more trying to undermine each other in any way.

Summer: No more coming to us complaining about the other one.

Phyllis: Guys, that’s gonna be easy for me. I mean, honestly, I’ve been all but ignoring diane, I mean, despite her attempts to create conflict.

Diane: I merely let kyle and summer know about the mysterio file on my computer because i thought it could impact the company.

Phyllis: Oh, okay. Alright. So, for the good of the company, you decided I was responsible?

Diane: Phyllis, we all know that you’re the expert hacker. I was just trying to be helpful in pinpointing the potential source of the issue.

Phyllis: Okay. Alright. Cool. Well, I, in turn, um — I needed to defend myself, you know? And I — I denied these baseless allegations.

Kyle: Okay, look —

Phyllis: And I just wanted to tell you the truth, that’s all.

Kyle: Look, we don’t want to be put in a position of trying to figure out which one of you was being honest.

Summer: No, we are done refereeing your feud, okay? So, if there’s one more incident, one more confrontation…

Kyle: No matter who provoked it…

Summer: You’re both out.

This is john.

Nate: So, you’ve confirmed that his collapse was due to extreme exhaustion? Are there any other symptoms? How’s his heart rate and blood pressure? Have you run other tests? And your prognosis of his overall health at this time is? I see. Thank you for your time.

Imani: Well, based on what i heard, it isn’t awful.

Nate: Your father’s gonna be just fine. He’s suffering from extreme exhaustion. The doctor recommends he get some rest, which I know is easy to say. He’s gonna prescribe him something and encourage him to take better care of himself.

Imani: Oh. Thank god it’s not life-threatening. I couldn’t handle that right now. Just — nate, thank you again for explaining things.

[ Sighs ] And you always just give me so much peace of mind. Thank you.

Nate: Not a problem. But I think you should go see him.

Imani: Why? I mean, you just said it wasn’t serious. Is there something you’re not telling me?

Nate: Relax. I’m not giving you this advice because I think your father’s symptoms are worse than they appear. I’m just saying this because i know you won’t feel better until you go see him yourself. Okay?

Nate: Thank you.

Diane: Wait. We’re both out, no matter who’s at fault?

Summer: That’s right.

Diane: Well, that’s not fair. I mean, why should I be held accountable for her bad behavior?

Phyllis: Um… okay, just so I get this clear. So, if she does something, I get fired, too? That just doesn’t seem right.

Kyle: It won’t matter who said what or who did what to whom. You will both — both — be immediately removed from the company.

Summer: No questions asked, no excuses tolerated.

Diane: But —

Phyllis: Okay —

Summer: This is non-negotiable, period.

Kyle: We warned you from the beginning to stay out of each other’s way. You were told that any conflict between the two of you would be a deal breaker.

Summer: And now you know that we mean it. Besides, the two of you have limited need to interact at marchetti anyway.

Phyllis: Okay, well, that’s not entirely true. Diane is writing the press release for my division, so I’m going to have to be around her.

Kyle: True. But if you can’t handle the times when you do need to interact, you shouldn’t have the job in the first place. It’s just that simple. Understood?

Phyllis: Summer, are you really…

Diane: Kyle, don’t you think this is a little harsh?

Kyle: Mom, we have a company to run.

Summer: And we’re both committed to its success.

Kyle: Hey, we are in the middle of a huge transition. Moving a company from milan to genoa city is a mammoth of an undertaking, and this is a big step for jabot and my father, so this affects him, as well.

Summer: We just don’t need these kinds of distractions.

Kyle: Like I said, you’re both doing great work in your respective jobs. Neither of us want to lose you. We want to see you succeed and be a part of this adventure. But we are done making allowances.

Summer: We’re done with the attacks and the accusations. This is your last warning. Are we clear?

Phyllis: Yeah. Sure. Fine.

Diane: Yeah, whatever you say. You can count on me.

Phyllis: Is there something you’d like to say?

Diane: Oh, no, phyllis. You — you go ahead.

Phyllis: No, I insist.

Diane: [ Sighs ] I think it has been very difficult for the two of you to be caught in the middle between us. And that’s not fair. So I want you to know that i promise that you won’t have to deal with that anymore.

Phyllis: You know, it really breaks my heart that you’re having this conversation with us. I mean, I don’t want to stress you out. I just want to help you make this company grow into the success that you want it to be. So, don’t worry. I’m not gonna do anything. You don’t have to worry about me.

Diane: See? You don’t have to worry about this ever again.

Phyllis: No. It’s all good. I’m good.

Diane: Yeah.

Nikki: Deacon was around during a very low point in my life. I’m in recovery now, but back then I was drinking excessively. And deacon took advantage of that and worked his way into my life and became my enabler.

Deacon: If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you were stalking me.

Nikki: Oh, god. If I had known you were working, I wouldn’t have come here.

Deacon: Well, I’d probably be wounded if I didn’t know that was a lie. On the house.

Nikki: I don’t want it.

Deacon: Honey, I’ve earned enough of these and lost ’em…

[ Chip clinks ] …To know that’s exactly what you want.

Nikki: I cannot believe that I am here again. The — the lying and the sneaking around. I swore I would never put myself through this again.

Deacon: Okay. Alright. All right, listen. You know what we’re gonna do? We’re gonna make a pact, alright? Tonight, that’s it. We pour the booze out. No more slip-ups. Come on. Come on. Let’s pour it out. Good. Now, we gotta promise that we’ll be there for each other ’cause nobody else understands but us.

Nikki: But finally it was just too much for victor. He had had enough, and he moved on with diane. Then, the day that she supposedly “died,” I confronted her, drunk. Things got out of hand and I picked up a rock and I hit her with it in the head.

Talia: So that’s why authorities thought you were the one who killed her.

Nikki: And I was so drunk, i didn’t know if I had or not. Clearly, deacon took advantage of that situation.

Deacon: You know, I was born and raised in this town. God, I love me some las vegas. Nikki, come on. Please? I mean, you really don’t want to do this.

Nikki: You know, you’re right. If I put all these together, it’s still not enough to get me through a wedding to you.

[ Sighs ] Yes, hello. Could you please send up a bottle of vodka immediately? Thank you.

Nikki: As I said, it was a very dark period of my life. I hardly knew who I was, but i did know that I wasn’t the person I wanted to be. It took me quite some time to climb out of that hole. And once I did, I didn’t want to look back. But today, in order to face deacon, that’s exactly what I’m gonna have to do. Family is just very important.

Kyle: Thanks for understanding our position on this.

Summer: We’re glad that you both see why we had to take this step.

Phyllis: You don’t have to warn us again.

Dian: Oh, no, no. You don’t have to give this another thought.

Kyle: Great. Then we’re good. And now we can all head back to work with our new attitude and perspective.

Phyllis: That’s right! Let’s do it! Let’s do it!

Diane: That’s right. Everything’s going to work out just fine. You’ll see.

Phyllis: Yeah. Um, I have to make a phone call, so I’ll see you at the office.

Diane: Alright. I will see you shortly. Bye.

Kyle: Well, let’s hope that’s the end of it.

Summer: Yeah. Let’s hope.

Imani: You’re right. I’m gonna go to virginia today to see dad, and you don’t have to worry about me because I am not gonna fall apart.

[ Laughs ]

Nate: Okay. I’m sure devon would want you to use his jet. He’s probably gotten the news from amanda by now.

Imani: Yeah. I guess I’ll reach out to him.

[ Sighs ] I don’t know what it is about you. You — you’re just so calming and supportive, reassuring. I don’t know how I’d get through any of this without you.

Nate: I’m just glad I can be here to help.

Imani: Yeah, well, you were talking earlier about me being there for you, but you are the one that is always showing up for me. Nate, I think I’m the lucky one.

Nate: I guess that goes both ways…because I cannot begin to explain to you how helpful it’s been to have someone to confide in who really understands what I’ve been going through. Dealing with devon’s constant second-guessing and having all of my ideas shot down — it’s been frustrating, to say the least.

Imani: Well, of course it’s frustrating — because your ideas are amazing.

Nate: And that’s why i appreciate that you really listened to me. I mean really listened.

Imani: Well, about that… I hope that you are willing to listen to what I have to say to you right now.

Nick: Clearly nate brought you this insider information because there is some upside for him, something other than provoking his own family.

Victoria: Well, of course there is. The leadership of chancellor-winters.

Nick: Whoa. Are you saying you would make him ceo, leading the whole thing, above lily and devon?

Victoria: Yes. Why not? It’s what he told me he wanted in return.

Nick: [ Sighs ] It’s just such a mercenary move. I would never expect that of nate.

Victoria: Nate has learned a lot about how the game is played. He sees an opportunity, an opportunity that ultimately will be what’s best for everyone at chancellor-winters.

Nick: Oh, I’m sure that’s the speech he’s composing right now. He’s completely ignoring the fact that everything he is doing is absolutely unethical. And if he benefits from this financially in any way, it’s gonna invite some serious sec scrutiny.

Victoria: Oh, nicholas, would you just let me worry about that? I want to know what you think of the acquisition. Putting aside your feelings about nate’s role in it, don’t you think that it’s a smart move for newman enterprises?

Nick: It is impossible to take that element out of the equation. Nate felt so underappreciated, his response is to do an end run on lily and devon — and everything they did, they worked so hard to build by merging these two companies. Vick, they’re gonna take it personally because it’s personal.

When moderate to severe

ulcerative colitis persists…

Nate: Okay. I’m listening.

Imani: So, now I am talking to you as your biggest supporter. The reason I am constantly encouraging you to follow your instincts is because you’re really good, even if devon doesn’t give you the recognition you deserve.

Nate: I appreciate you saying that. I would like to believe you’re right.

Imani: No, I am not the only one. Lily and billy see the merit in your ideas, too. Now, maybe she didn’t side with you against devon, but that is definite confirmation you belong in the c-suite, that you were right to think big and bold.

Nate: [ Inhales sharply ] I’m only getting bolder.

Imani: Good, ’cause I don’t want devon undermining your confidence, always going around saying that maybe he gave you too much responsibility too soon, that you were ill-equipped to handle the transition from medicine to business. Because we both know that is not true.

Nate: Trust me on this. Devon has not undermined my confidence.

Imani: I understand why you got frustrated and thought you had to leave chancellor-winters. I get it. But I hope that you will reconsider. And I wish elena had never suggested it because you deserve to reap the benefits of your ideas. Devon has no reason to hold you back, and you need to show him that.

Nate: Once again, you’re tuned into exactly what’s going on with me.

Nick: Just think about it, vick. If you used nate’s insider information to take over chancellor-winters, lily and devon are gonna see it as an act of betrayal. And, frankly, there is no other way to look at it.

Victoria: They’ll be upset, at least initially, but they’re both aware of the risks involved in going public.

Nick: You know, there’s one other member of the chancellor-winters executive team that you haven’t mentioned yet. Does you wanting this company so badly have anything to do with billy?

Victoria: Why would this have anything to do with him?

Nick: Because I know you, and I know you’ve looked at this from every angle and thought about how it shakes out for everyone involved.

Victoria: Yes, I have made a few calculations.

Nick: Okay. Let’s just say we get you everything you want, get you those seats on the board. What does this mean for billy? Does he have to answer to you? Is that what this is about?

Talia: You are quite a remarkable woman. I admire your strength. It’s not easy to pull yourself out of a difficult time and reclaim your life.

Nikki: Well, I can’t take all the credit. I had a tremendous amount of love and support, and I realize a lot of people aren’t that fortunate. So, I had to be strong for myself — and, more importantly, for my family.

Talia: I hope talking about it all before going in to meet with deacon was of some value to you.

Nikki: It was. You know, uh, sometimes when you say things out loud, it lessens the power it has on you. Funny how that works.

Talia: From what I’ve learned about you, though, you are strong enough to deal with anything or anyone.

Nikki: No, you’ve been very good for me. God knows I’ve given you a lot of mixed messages.

Deacon: Listen. I’m just happy to be with you. Any time I get to spend with you is great, and I’ll take it any way I can get it.

Nikki: You are too nice.

Deacon: Oh, that is so funny ’cause it’s — everyone says that in genoa city. They say, “deacon sharpe is such a nice guy.”

Nikki: Will you just take the compliment, please? You’re not the evil bastard you want people to think you are. At least, not right now, not with me. And I’m very grateful for that.

[ Sighs ] And I’ve — I’ve got to stop doing this to both of us. I have to stop it. So, um, I’m gonna be leaving town for a little while, and I’m just gonna go see my sister. It — it couldn’t be a better time, actually. I need to get away, and, um, think and, uh, put some miles between me and… the coffee.

Deacon: [ Chuckles ]

Nikki: I just need to figure out what’s going on in my head…and in my heart.

Nikki: When you’re in recovery, especially early on, they warn you to avoid the people, places, and things that are associated with your addiction. That’s another good reason it was good for you and me to talk like this. I needed to remember exactly who and what deacon sharpe is. And I cannot be complacent because that’s when, if you’re not careful, you can really get into trouble. Hi, I’m karen.

Victoria: Billy’s potential role is not a factor.

Nick: So, you’re telling me you haven’t considered what the management structure of chancellor-winters will look like once you’ve installed nate at the top?

Victoria: I’m just saying that there’s nothing personal about this move. It’s — it’s all business, nicholas.

Nick: While I admire you channeling your inner dad, i don’t buy that answer for one minute.

Victoria: As far as I’m concerned, there is absolutely no downside to bringing chancellor-winters under the newman umbrella. Just think about how powerful and explosive that would be.

Explosive, yes, but not in a good way. Let’s put aside the undercutting of devon and lily, two people i greatly respect and care about. It’s a massive financial outlay, vick. Have you forgotten you recently went on a very impressive spending spree?

Victoria: Financing the stock buy is not an issue. Risk and reward, nicholas.

Nick: Have you run this by dad?

Victoria: No, not yet. But it is too big of a deal not to, so of course I will, and i also intend to get input from my co-ceo — mom. But ultimately, this is my call. And you’re right. You’re absolutely right. This is exactly the kind of move that dad would make.

Nick: And you think that’s a good thing?

Victoria: You know dad. He once had control of chancellor. He inherited it after katherine died. And although selling it made a lot of sense, I know it was hard for him to let go of her legacy. Now here we are. We have the perfect opportunity to get the company back. Can you give me one solid reason why we shouldn’t seize the moment?

Nick: Not one you want to hear, apparently.

[ Knock on door ]

Diane: I hope this isn’t a bad time?

Jack: Uh, no. It’s a perfectly fine time. Come on in.

Diane: I wanted to stop by and apologize.

Jack: Apologize? For what?

Diane: Well, I’m sorry I took my suspicions to kyle and summer about phyllis setting me up. I realized what a huge mistake it was, and, um, I’m also sorry if somehow you got in the middle of it.

Jack: Do you realize you were wrong, that what you accused phyllis of she was not guilty of?

Diane: I’m just saying I know now what a terrible position i put them in.

Jack: How so?

Diane: Well, because I forced them to mediate some issues between phyllis and myself, when really all they want are uncomplicated working relationships with their mothers.

Jack: Seems to me they’ve made that clear for a very long time now. What caused the sudden epiphany?

Diane: Kyle asked me to meet him at society, and summer did the same to phyllis. It was a setup. They wanted to address the situation with both of us together.

Jack: Wow. How did that go? Anyone throw any food?

Diane: [ Laughs ] No, it was actually quite civilized.

Jack: Well, that’s progress, I’d say.

Diane: Phyllis and I were on our best behavior. We had to be. They gave us a pretty harsh ultimatum. They said that if either of us does anything remotely antagonistic, we’d both be fired.

Jack: Tough love mixed with mutually assured destruction. Seems to me that’s plenty of incentive to get along now.

Diane: Well, we were both pretty shocked. I mean, it’s — it’s kind of unfair.

Jack: Then you and phyllis agreed on something.

Diane: That’s hardly a silver lining.

Jack: It could have been a whole lot worse. You and phyllis could have lost your jobs.

Diane: I suppose. It was kind of an odd role reversal, our kids sitting us down and reprimanding us, laying down the law like we were the obstinate children that needed disciplining.

Jack: Well, were they off base? (Rose h) smoking caused my lung cancer.

Nate: You’re right. I do want to show devon he’s wrong about me. Maybe I did act prematurely by walking away. I let my frustration with devon get the better of me. But there is still a lot I want to accomplish in my role at chancellor-winters.

Imani: I’m very happy to hear you say that. But now you have to promise me that you’ll be back at chancellor-winters when i return.

Nate: That is the plan.

Imani: You’re a pretty awesome guy, nate.

[ Both laugh ]

Nate: Good luck in virginia.

Imani: Thank you.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Nate: Victoria. Good to hear from you.

Victoria: Nate, I’ve been thinking about your proposal, and I’d like to meet.

Nate: [ Chuckles ]

Summer: I am choosing to remain…hopeful about our mothers’ ability to follow through.

Kyle: Mm, I’m with you on that. Now that the situation’s been dealt with, we can put our energy where it belongs.

Summer: Mm. That’s right.

Kyle: Mm. Like focusing on making marchetti a huge success.

Summer: No! You’re kidding me, right? I was talking about our vow renewal. The next time the four of us get together, we’re gonna be talking about music and flowers and our color scheme.

[ Both laugh ]

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Hey, nikki. It’s me. I mean [Sighs] Please tell me you’re getting enough pay dirt in los angeles to drive this bitch out of town.

Diane: I don’t think kyle and summer needed to threaten our jobs to prove their point.

Jack: The way you and phyllis have been behaving, you honestly are surprised that summer and kyle felt they were forced to handle the situation the way they did?

Diane: Well, I wouldn’t say forced. That’s a little strong.

Jack: Come on, diane. You have to admit, even though you and phyllis claim that you have your priorities straight, it appears the two of you are enjoying this war. And I have to wonder if it’s more important to you than your commitment to work and to family.

Diane: That’s ridiculous. Why would you even say —

Jack: Listen to me. I know what I’m talking about. I have been there with victor. Our ongoing battles after a while looked like they were shaping who we were. Don’t let that happen with you and phyllis. Do not get lost in the hatred. Do not feed off the animosity and confrontation. Don’t fall into old habits.

Diane: You say this like you’re concerned for me. I’m — I’m touched.

Jack: I am concerned about kyle and summer.

Diane: Yeah, but I bet you’re not giving this same advice to phyllis.

Jack: Oh, believe me, I have tried repeatedly. And I get the sense that I’m not gonna get through to phyllis on this particular subject. I hope the same can’t be said of you.

Diane: Jack, I can assure you I am taking all of your advice to heart. And I promise that things will be different from now on.

Jack: I’m glad to hear that. For kyle’s sake — and yours.

Diane: [ Raps desk ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Sighs ] Been so long since I’ve been here. Too long. I mean, I’ve meant to come by many times, and, you know, something always came up and… excuses, excuses, right? Just seems so fitting. That after everything I’ve been through… that I would end up here in jacksonville. With you. I don’t even know how to respond to this. Uh, the truth would be a great start. You think I would sabotage your happiness, your upcoming wedding like that? If you still had feelings, maybe. Of course I still have feelings, curtis. They don’t just up and disappear. But you’ve moved on with your life. And you and your fiancée are sharing a new home now, so… so I’m still not hearing an answer. Yes or no. I’m scared. Kevin: I understand. It’s alright. I’m here with you. You were talking about the staircase. Is the woman still at the bottom of the stairs? Yes. I was so angry with her. I’m telling her to stay away from my father. But now she’s not moving.

[ Gasps ] Elizabeth, what is it? What do you see? Gregory: I know your thoughts are with elizabeth. She’s in really good hands with kevin. I know. I know. Look, you got your own stuff going on. Really. How is kristina doing? She’s unsettled. But she’s not hurt. And brando seems to be out of danger, so I’m grateful. Ah. But it won’t stop there, will it? Not if the same person who attacked brando was the one who attacked ava. The real question is, does the public have the right to know that there may be a lunatic out there with a hook who could very well strike again? Well, you can finally breathe a little bit. Brando got out of surgery. He’s gonna be okay, right? Yeah, he’s a strong guy. It’s probably in the genes. My dad loved brando. I mean, who wouldn’t love him? He’s just, like… amazing… yeah. …Loyal, generous. Gladys: And alive! My son is alive, and I’ve never been more relieved! I’ll bet. Ohh! I thought I lost him, sonny. I — th– thought lost my boy. You know what? Brando’s with us right now. That’s — this is where he belongs. Okay? You’ll be alright. Come on. Gladys: Ohh.

[ Alarms beeping ] Brando! Brando! Oh, my god! Please! We need help in here! Please, baby! Baby, it’s okay! Oh, my god. -Sasha, sasha, please. -What’s wrong with him?! I thought everything was okay! What’s happening?! Please! Get her out. I want to stay. Get her out of here! Sasha… we need room to work. What is happening?! Please, please! You have to save him! Portia: Let’s get him on his side. Please save him! Lorazepam going in. Easy, easy. Check his stat. Deanna: Pulse is 30 and dropping. Come on, brando.

I couldn’t wait to get away. From you. The condo. All the mistakes I made. And get to port charles and claim the life that I knew was mine. And I had it for a while. I did. I had a husband, a family… money, career. Even that social status that I was so fixated on, you know? I had the right car… I had the right clothes, and I had the right address.

[ Chuckles ] No condo for me, no. I had an estate on the lake. And then it all came crashing down like a house of cards. I mean, I’m fine. I’m not destitute or anything. But I’m here. Back in this place. It’s like a round-trip ticket to where I started. I signed the papers, sealed them in an envelope, and left them on my desk to be delivered to the judge. But they never got there. Stella: You think by now I would have learned my lesson! But there’s no fool like a old fool. What did you do, stella? I meddled in your personal business. How? Happened right here in this office. I took the envelope that contained your signed divorce papers. They were never filed. You are curtis are still married. I never saw those papers again. So let’s just sign the new ones and move forward. Yes. And that’s what I want. Okay. If you say you didn’t hold onto those papers, then, uh, I believe you. Hallelujah. But I do have another question. If there were no papers… if I did not ask for a divorce… would we still be married? So is this your dinner attire or is dinner off? Ohh. I-I meant to text you back, but it’s been crazy around here. Oh. Is everything alright? It is now. I mean, you know my friend brando corbin. Of course. Mike’s cousin. We almost lost him tonight. Ohh… but he pulled through. He pulled through.

[ Chuckles ] Oh, thank goodness! For him and his family, but also for you. Good friends are hard to come by. And so are wonderful aunts. Come here.

[ Chuckles ] On the one hand, there’s the people’s right to know. And on the other, there’s getting involved in a police investigation and everything that comes with that. And here I thought medicine was complicated. Go meet elizabeth. Yeah? Yeah. We’ve got this. Okay, I’ll — I’ll check in later. Who is this “we” you’re speaking of? Is she someone you know? I think so. But you still can’t see your face? No. It’s alright, elizabeth. You’re safe. And you’re doing great. Now look up at the top of the stairs. Is someone there, too? Yes. Yes. Someone’s there. No. “No” what? Elizabeth, who do you see? Hey, carly. Kids are fine. Listen. There’s a lot going down right now. And can you just call me as soon as you can? George: Bad news? No, no, no. Just the opposite. Really good news. Ah. At my age, you have to wonder if there’s a difference.

[ Chuckles ] -He needs another round. -His heart rate’s plummeting. Portia: We need to push atropine 0.5 milligrams. We need to set him up to be paced and prep a dopamine drip. Fight for us, brando. Remember what we mean to each other. Everything we’ve been through. The good and bad. If you’re sonny’s cousin, what are you doing working for the man who tried to kill sonny’s family? Sasha? Her pulse is racing. You gave yourself a heart attack, and you’re spending thanksgiving in the hospital. Look. This is your thanksgiving holiday, too. What are you doing spending it with me, trying to help me? Because! You’re the only one that i can help right now.

[ Sighs ] Mistletoe. Merry christmas. Brando: You know what I appreciate? What? That you just come right out and say you wanted to see me.

So breathe me in just want to say something about last night. I know. No. It shouldn’t have happened. Really? Because I was just about to say I’m glad it did. If you are pregnant with my child, I want you to tell me. Yes. The baby is yours. I feel that I have a chance at something amazing here. I want to be a part of this child’s life. And yours. Meet your son or daughter, brando corbin.

Here we are

holding on

[ Groaning ] Saa! Hey. You okay? Ohh! Brando, we have to hurry. The baby’s coming. Oh, my god! That’s our son! Can I hold him? Where’s our baby? Liam mike corbin. You were here for such a short time. But you made quite the impact. Brando: I love you, sasha gilmore. I love you with everything inside of me. I love you, too, brando.

Stay with me anyone ever tell you what a great guy you are? Let’s get married. Today!

[ Chuckles ] You are my family, brando. You’re all the family I need. With this ring, I thee wed.

[ Chuckles ] You deserve the world. I know that this wasn’t your fantasy elopement. This is my fantasy elopement. Because at the end of the day, you are my husband. And you’re my wife. For the rest of our lives.

Go on and breathe me

breathe me

[ Alarms beeping ] This makes no sense! He was trending up after surgery. It’s like his body’s been hit with something else that’s wrecking his entire system!

[ Flat line ] We’re losing him! The hell we are. Get him over on his back. Start chest compressions right now.

[ Flat line ] Okay. Come on, brando. Come on. Deanna: One, two, three, four… come on. …Six… one, two, three..

Never gonna escape it, am I? I mean, it doesn’t matter that I clawed my way to the top in port charles. In jacksonville, I’m always gonna be caroline benson from the wrong side of town. I mean, the tacky little wannabe who’s trying to pretend she belongs with the kids that go to the country club.

[ Scoffs ] I can hear you now. “Be content with what you have, caroline. It’s more than what you think.” God, as a kid, I used to resent that. I took it as though you wanted to hold me back. That you didn’t think I was good enough to want more or better. But I understand now, mom. What you meant was… “you’re wonderful just the way you are.” I’m sorry I couldn’t hear it. For your sake. And mine. Five, four, three, two, one.

[ Fingers snap ] Ohh. I’m sorry. I can’t do this. It’s alright. Are you sure you don’t want to try again? It seems like we were getting somewhere. I’m positive. Okay. We’ll pick it up again on tuesday. Look, I’m not accusing you of anything. This is legit curiosity. If things had been different… yes. As far as I’m concerned, we’d still be together. But I’m not the one who wanted to end our marriage, curtis. And that’s not an accusation or a condemnation. It’s just a fact. And despite all the things that pulled us apart… I still loved you. I loved you, too. It’s just… there were things that you couldn’t live with. Yeah. The lies. The secrets. I know what goes into being married to a cop, but it was bleeding into our personal life. Look. I guess I just… I never felt like I was on solid ground with you. And is that how you feel with portia? Like you’re on solid ground? Are you saying I’m not? -My treat. -Ooh. Big spender. Oh, yeah, that’s me. I’ll tell you what. You could spend a lot of money on me when we attend the panel at pcu. How’s that? I’m so glad you agreed to attend with me. Actually, I’m speaking on the panel. And just forgot to mention it? I’m mentioning it now. Of course you are. Always in a position of control. Look who’s talking. “Finn, go take care of elizabeth. We got this.” “We”? Who’s we? As in, we work on the paper, my paper together? You don’t value my opinion? When I ask for it. Alright. I’m asking for it. Don’t gloat. Stick to the facts. You don’t want to frighten your readers. Just inform them, appeal to their — to their reason, not their emotions. But that right there is the problem. This is emotional. Your son was this close to the boathouse where ava was attacked, and my daughter was in the alley where brando was hurt. So this is scary and it’s making people angry, so we need to channel those feelings into action. Such as? We write an open letter to whoever’s terrorizing the town. We appeal to that person’s vanity. And then what? We wait for them to write back. Hey. Hey.

[ Sighs ] Ooh. How’d it go? Learn anything new? I did. That I’m an excellent liar. Do I know you? You — you remind me of someone. Yeah. Yeah. I get that a lot. The name’s george. And you are? My friends call me sonny. You may know my old man. He used to bet on horses. Horses? Yeah. Oh, that? No. No. I just found that in the trash. No, I never actually been to a race track. So what was your old man’s name? Mike. Huh. Hey, you know what I said before about good news? Eh. Don’t mind me. I’ve overstayed my welcome. I should have checked out a long time ago. You shouldn’t say that. Life matters. Everybody’s life matters. What are you, a priest? What’s so funny?

[ Chuckles ] I’m not a priest. Oh. Want to go find sasha, join the party?

[ Gasps ] Yeah. Let’s do it. Come on.

[ Sasha exhales sharply ] We’ve wasted so much time together. No, actually

i have wasted it. Please, brando. Give me another chance. Stay with me, and I promise that we’re going to have a beautiful life together, making only happy memories. Please. Brando?

You’re never gonna believewho I ran into. Reese’s mom, mrs. Roberts. Of course, she goes by “mrs. Wade honeycutt” now. I didn’t even recognize her. You know? I mean… I mean, she has a different name and she’s older, but there was something familiar about her. God, I remember how I used to talk about her. Her car. And how great of a tennis player she was and the amazing parties she used to have. I pray that I never said the words “she’s better than you.” But that was the message. And I was so wrong. Oh, god. [ Chuckles ] Oh, my god. I was so wrong about so many things, mom. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry that I didn’t see how amazing you were.

[ Click ] Man: You want to tell me what you’re doing here? What the — I’m visiting my mom! Can you get that light out of my face, please? Who are you? What are you doing here? The night watchman hired by the developers. What developers? You’re not from around here, are you? The land has been repurposed. The city declared eminent domain. What are you talking about? You can’t just shut down a cemetery. It’s already happened. The graves in the north section have already been moved. They’ll move this section soon. Why? To put in a parkway for better access to the beach. That’s ridicul– I mean, can’t they just go around the cemetery to get to the beach? I guess not. That’s crazy… okay. Is the jacksonville beautification guild involved in this in any way? They got the ball rolling, yeah. Well, what’s gonna happen to my mom? You’ll need to move her. I’m not trying to cause trouble for you and portia. I’m just saying, can you ever truly know a person? To their absolute core?

[ Sighs ] Maybe not. But you can sure get damn close. Curtis. Believe it or not, I’m rooting for you. I really hope you get everything you want.

[ Scoffs ] And I hope the same for you. You want to elaborate on this lying thing? Kevin helped me reconnect with my memory. Of the staircase. Not only the one when I was a teenager, but a more recent one. Peter. As soon as my mind went there, I just — I shut it down because obviously it’s not like I can tell kevin about that. It’s kind of my fault. What? No. I pushed peter down the stairs, not you. Right? And if that’s preventing you from getting the help you need — no, no, no, no, finn. Y-you’re missing the point. I think the incident with peter triggered my memory from when I was younger. Right, so you think you witnessed this woman being pushed down the stairs, and what happened to peter has brought it all to the surface. Don’t you? My dad and brando understood each other. Despite the age difference. I mean — or because of the age difference. I mean, you know, that’s life. The longer you live, the… the more lives you touch, you know? Welcome back, george. What — what’d you say your cousin’s name was? Brando. Well, don’t ask me how I know, but you’re needed. No. No. I’m so sorry. No. No. They don’t get to take both liam and brando. They just don’t! We did everything that we possibly could. No, no. He was fine. He was fine. He was laughing and talking. Brando wouldn’t leave me. -What? Sasha. -No, he wouldn’T. He didn’T. W-what’s going on? I am — I’m so sorry, mrs. Corbin. But there were complications. -Mnh. -And your son didn’t make it. What?!

[ Sobbing ] I was telling sasha that we did everything that we possibly could. No! No! No!

[ Sobbing ] Gladys: My brando! Sasha…

[ Sobbing ] Oh, brando!

[ Sobbing ] Nina: Sonny. Brando? I’m so sorry.

[ Gladys sobbing ] I don’t understand. His eyes were open. He regained consciousness. How did this happen? There were, um, unforeseen complications. And we might never know what really happened. I can’t believe it. I don’t want to believe it. Oh, me neither. I know how much brando meant to you. And I wish there was something I could say or do… to help you. Give me a second. Portia. I want to see him. You’re actually going to invite a killer to write a letter to the editor? It worked for jack the ripper. Except they never caught jack the ripper. It’s the longest cold case in history. Well, think about it. His ego wouldn’t allow him to remain silent. He was proud of his craft, boasted about the killings. He taunted the police to the point where he practically dared them to catch him. And you think you can succeed where scotland yard couldn’T.

[ Sighs ] It’s different. It’s a different time now. Law enforcement has a lot more tools at their disposal. They’ve got dna. They’ve got digital footprints. That sort of thing. You’ll either win a pulitzer or…get indicted. I honestly don’t know which. But you’re intrigued. I’m intrigued. Tj: Everything okay? Yeah, we were just catching up. Yeah, we were consulting. Uh, which is it? Catching up or consulting? A little bit of both. I was just picking curtis’ brain, drawing up on those rusty pi skills of his. Rusty? Your mom is determined to find who tried to kill brando. And I will. Even the darkest secret can’t stay secret forever. Tj. Tj. I’ve been looking for you. What’s up? There’s something that you need to know. I’m so sorry about your cousin. Thank you. I know it — it’s cold comfort, but it doesn’t make it any less true — brando’s at peace now. I’m just — just worried about the rest of us, you know? We’ll give you some time with him. Thank you. You left us way too son, buddy. You, liam, mike. Y-you take care of each other up there. And I’m gonna take care of sasha and your mother. And everybody else. I promise you that.

I should call molly. I should, um — I should let her know what happened. Do you want me to? Nephew, we can take that right off your plate, man. No. She should — she should hear it from me. It just doesn’t make any sense. What doesn’t? The surgery was successful. The damage to his lung was repaired and all the bone fragments removed. And t-the symptoms that portia described weren’t even consistent with sepsis. What do you think went wrong? I don’t know. I could see the woman at the bottom of the stairs. I just couldn’t see who pushed her. There’s no pressure, okay? It’s — it’s like a hike or climbing a mountain, you know? You don’t race to the top. You take it one step at a time. What did you just say? You know. Mountain climbing. You put one foot in front of the other and all that. That’s how you — that’s how you reach the summit. What just happened up there? Um, I’m so sorry to interrupt, but I need a consult, please. Okay. Just wait one minute. I-it’s very important. It’s okay. We can finish this later. There’s something I have to take care of anyway. Yeah? Yeah. Oh. Okay. I’m sorry. This is insane. So my mom gets dug up like she’s some kind of potted plant? Most of the families have already made arrangements. Why wasn’t I notified? Virginia benson. Yes. Hold on. The records on file had the name jason morgan.

[ Groans ] They reached out but never heard back. Well, jason’s no longer with us. But I’m here. And these people aren’t gonna get away with this. I’ll be sure to bring it up at the next guild meeting. What on earth?! If you think for one second my mother is leaving her resting place, you have lost your mind.

[ Knocking ] Elizabeth. I remembered something. -What’s going on? -It’s about brando corbin. Yeah. How’s he doing? We lost him. What? And I’m hoping that you can tell me why. You can go in now. I don’t know if I can. No one’s — no one’s making you. Either — either of you. If you want to take your time before you go in — or if you don’t — if you decide you don’t want to go in, you don’t have to. That’s fine. I’m ready. Okay. Will you — will you come with me?
