Steffy: Thank god. My sweet husband.

Hope: Liam’s my husband, mom, I’m not worried.

Brooke: I’m not saying you should be, sweetheart, but situations like this. Steffy’s husband died, tragically.

Hope: Which steffy still knows nothing about. Mom, she remembers nothing about that night.

Brooke: But when she does, when she starts to remember everything.

Hope: Everyone that loves her will be there to help her through it.

Brooke: Including liam?

Hope: Yes, including liam. That’s the way it should be.

Steff: I need you.

Bridget: I’ve dealt with cases where the trauma of the event was so devastating, the patient blocks it out entirely.

Taylor: Yeah, I’ve dealt with that in my practice too. When it’s your own daughter?

Bridget: I know. On one hand, you wish you could just never tell her what happened. Spare her all that heartache and pain. But the reality is–

Taylor: Finn is gone.

Bridget: Right.

Taylor: Someone took him from us, from everybody that loved him. My daughter, most of all. I just– I just keep wondering if she’s ever going to remember what happened. I–

Carter: What did you say?

Quinn: Oh, come on. Don’t pretend you didn’t hear me.

Carter: I don’t know. You whispered– I don’t– I don’t know if I got that.

Quinn: Wh– okay, so. Fine. So you need me to say it louder? Is that it? I need to be– I need to be louder. Fine! I miss you, too.

[ Sighing ]

Carter: I’ll try not to let it go to my head.

Quinn: Well… you said at first, mr.

Carter: That I miss you? It’s true.

Quinn: And your involvement with paris?

Carter: I did what had to be done, I ended it.

Quinn: For her sake?

Carter: Yes, for her sake. She’d be much happier with zende. He can give her everything she deserves, and more.

Quinn: I don’t disagree with that. But now that things are over with paris, and I mean, they are over, right?

Carter: Yes, they are over.

Quinn: I am so glad to hear that.

Bridget: Well, obviously, you know, we’re going to continue to monitor steffy very closely. And I don’t have to tell you that we need to proceed cautiously. But ridge has really been trying to get steffy to remember who did this to finn and her. And I understand why. But I–

Taylor: But we can’t thrust the horror of what happened to her. She’s– she’s too weak, physically and emotionally.

Bridget: Exactly. I’m really relieved to hear you say that. I’m glad we agree. I’m going to go check on her. Okay?

Taylor: Thank you.

Brooke: Oh, sweetheart, I– I’m not trying to make you feel insecure or question liam’s feelings for steffy–

Hope: Mom, look, liam loves steffy, and he has always been honest with me about that and himself. They share a daughter together, and their love for kelly bonds them together the same way that liam and I– we have a daughter that we thought was lost to us. And now we have a wonderful family. And liam’s ring is on my finger. Not steffy’S.

Steffy: You mean so much to me. My husband by my side.

Bridget: What’s going on?

Steffy: Telling him how much I need him. How much I need my husband. Oh, man, that’s a whole lot of wrinkly.

Carter: So you’re glad that paris and I are over?

[ Quinn scoffing ]

Quinn: For all the obvious reasons. Your relationship with zende, your relationship with the forresters, uh, oh, uh, not to mention the little fact that that woman tried to blow up my life. What happened between us almost caused irreparable damage between you and ridge, you and eric. And now, if they were to– they were to find out that you were doing an end run around zende, trying to lure poor, sweet paris into your love nest?

Carter: Wow. Poor paris into my love nest? That is not what’s happening–

Quinn: I am sure that you didn’t do the luring. I’m sure that it was– it was mutual. And the two of you couldn’t fight your attraction to each other. Why? Why does that sound so familiar?

Carter: You talking about you and me?

Quinn: What happened between us, it’s in the past.

Carter: Mm hm.

Quinn: But I have to admit that I– I do, I do miss– I do miss our talks. The way we used to confide in each other. I don’t have a lot of friends. I know– surprise, surprise, but, um, there’s definitely been a void in my life since– since you and I stopped spending time with each other.

Hope: I’m lucky, mom. I have my husband. You– liam is safe. My family is safe. Our lives didn’t change in the blink of an eye.

Brooke: So many blessings to count.

Hope: Whereas steffy’s world will never be the same. Frankly, I mean– who could blame her if she never wants to remember th– that horrific night ever again? And if she does recall those awful moments, then– how does she handle that? I mean, how do you hear that your husband is gone and never coming back?

Taylor: Oh, honey, I know. I know you want to be here at the hospital, but douglas needs you there too. No, babe, just– just help him with his homework, and I’ll call you if anything changes. All right? Okay. I love you, too. Bye. Hi.

Sheila: Hey. I’m sorry, I didn’t– I didn’t mean to interrupt your phone call.

Taylor: No, it’s okay. I was just, uh, I needed to check in on thomas. Let him know what was going on.

Sheila: How’s– how’s steffy? I gather she’s still not remembering anything?

Taylor: No. No, not as far as that night is concerned. Everything is just a– it’s a blank for her. Oh, I’m so sorry, sheila. I know you are as anxious for steffy to remember what happened so she can tell us who did this as we are. But I promise you, we’re– we’re going to find out who did this. And we are going to put them behind bars for the rest of their lives. Come here.

Bridget: Very grateful to have your husband here with you, steffy?

Steffy: Yes. I knew liam would come.

Bridget: Honey? Do you remember anything else about that night?

Steffy: No. No. I’m trying, but…

Bridget: I think we need to give steffy some rest.

Steffy: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I wa– I want my husband here. I– I don’t want liam to leave me. No, no–

Liam: No, I’m– hey, hey! Listen, listen, listen. I’m not leaving you. I’m not leaving you. I’m– you see those doors? I’m gonna be right outside those doors. I’m not going anywhere. Okay?

Steffy: Thank you. Thank you. I love you. I love you so much.

Liam: Yeah. Yeah.

[ Sniffling ] I’m steve, I lost 138 pounds in nine months on golo

Carter: A void?

Quinn: I– nobody understands me the way that you do.

Carter: Even eric?

Quinn: Don’t get me wrong, I’m– I’m very happy to be back with my husband.

Carter: But?

Quinn: He’s been spending a lot of time working from home. Specifically the guest house, and, uh– he sleeps there quite often.

Carter: Is there A… is there still a problem?

Quinn: I love eric. He’s my husband. And I’m committed to him.

Carter: And I get that. But you still didn’t answer my question. Is there still a problem in your marriage, something going on that you can’t talk about, even with me?

Brooke: Sheila, ah. I didn’t expect you to be here. Is everything all right, taylor?

Taylor: Yep.

Sheila: I think what brooke really means to say is I don’t belong here.

Taylor: Well, of course you belong here. You’re hayes’ grandmother. You just lost your son. And you’re worried about finn’s little boy.

Sheila: And finn’s wife. I’m also concerned about steffy.

[ Hope clearing throat ]

Taylor: Oh, ridge, how’s steffy?

Ridge: Uh, well–

Hope: Has she remembered anything more?

Taylor: What is going on?

Ridge: You– you wanna…

Taylor: What’s going on?

Liam: So…

Taylor: Did my daughter take a turn for the worse?

Bridget: No, no, no. Steffy’s condition has not worsened. No, it– it’s nothing like that at all.

Taylor: OkaY. Thank god.

Ridge: But there is a change.

Brooke: What kind of change?

Bridget: Well, uh, it’s memory deficit. It’s, uh, a little more problematic than we initially realized.

Taylor: What you mean, problematic?

Ridge: That’s–

Bridget: Well, first of all, we all know that steffy does not remember how she and finn got shot, right?

Sheila: Ar– are you saying that that’s the way it’s going to stay, that– that she’s never going to regain her memory?

Bridget: No, no, I’m not– I’m not saying that at all, uh-

Taylor: What are you saying, bridget, please, just tell– tell us, please.

Bridget: This actually has more to do with liam.

Liam: Yeah–

Ridge: All right, li–

Liam: Okay, go.

Ridge: Liam came in the room and she– she was very grateful to see him.

Hope: Well, of course she would be, liam is important to her. This is kelly’s father, they were married.

Liam: Okay, all right, so that, um, that’s the thing.

Hope: What?

Liam: Uh, steffy now thinks, what she thinks–

Hope: Liam, what is it?

Liam: I– okay, so I come into the room and she’s really emotional, right? And– and she’s saying things like, you know, “oh, my god, I’m so glad you’re here. And– and, and I need you. And I need– I need my husband and…” hope, I’m pretty sure that steffy thinks that she and I are still married. Medusa lived with a hideous curse.

Quinn: I could always talk to you about anything. It’s what drew us together in the first place. It was always so easy between us. And I never had to be anyone but myself with you. It was– it was such a refreshing relief, knowing that you didn’t want to change me.

Carter: Why would I want to change you? And you can be yourself around eric too. He doesn’t want to change you either.

Quinn: Yes, but…

Carter: But what?

Quinn: You know what? I didn’t come here to get into all of that. I just came here to give you back your damn key, which I’ve done. So now I’m gonna leave and let you get back to work.

Carter: You sure the key wasn’t just an excuse?

Quinn: Okay. Also, I missed my friend. I know we see each other here at work, but it’s, you know, it’s just– it’s not the same thing.

Carter: And is that what we still are? Friends?

Quinn: I’d like to think so.

Carter: You know what I think?

Quinn: Hmm.

Carter: I think there’s not a woman in this world that is like you. You’re an original among originals.

Quinn: Oh, and don’t you forget it.

Carter: I haven’T. And never will.

Carter: Mm.

Nurse: Your blood pressure is slightly elevated. How are you feeling?

Steffy: Better if my husband was with me. Ask liam to come back right away.

Nurse: Okay, just relax. We’re going to get him. One second.

Hope: Steffy still thinks she’s married to you?

Brooke: What? So she has no recollection of finn whatsoever?

Liam: I don’t think so.

Taylor: But, what about hayes? Does she–

Ridge: Our daughter doesn’t think she has a little boy with finn.

Taylor: Oh my– oh my god.

Brooke: Well, you’re going to tell her, aren’t you?

Hope: She deserves to know what happened to finn.

Taylor: Okay, I– I don’t think that’s a good idea. And I– I’m speaking as a psychiatrist right now. S–steffy is going through a tremendous amount of trauma, and I don’t think we should–

Brooke: Yeah, but to let her go on believing that she’s liam’s wife, when he’s married to hope. I mean, that’s crazy. Uh– bridget, what do you think? Should steffy be told about finn?

Bridget: Mom, there are no easy answers here. Given steffy’s current condition and how fragile she is, I do have to agree with taylor here. We cannot dredge up steffy’s trauma. Not yet.

Nurse: Excuse me. Well, ms. Forrester’s asking for her husband.

[ Hope sighing ]

Liam: Yeah. Okay. We– I mean, we don’t want to upset her. We know that, right? Because her– her condition is fragile, like you just said. Maybe the best thing right now is just let keep believing what she’s believing. I–I– okay. Here we go.

Steffy: Oh, thank god. I thought you might have left.

Liam: I didn’t leave, I told you I was– I was right outside those doors. I didn’t go anywhere.

Steffy: I– I was so scared, liam. I– I was shot?

Liam: Um, yeah, you were. Yeah, but, but you know something? You’re going to be okay. Everything’s going to be okay. Listen to me. You are an extraordinary woman, and you are going to be 100%, in no time. You just got to tell me you believe that.

Steffy: I do. I do. I believe you.

Liam: Good.

Steffy: Yeah, as long as I have you, my husband, by my side. Just please tell me you’re not going to leave me. Please tell me I’m not going to be alone?

Liam: I’m not going to leave you. And you’re not going to be alone.

Ashland: Okay, I met with victor and adam, and it’s done. I see no reason to stay in this town one minute longer. You ready to go?

Victoria: Did you really think that I would run away with you, after everything you put me through? Did you really believe that this wasn’t the absolute end for us?

Ashland: I’m not sure what you’re saying right now.

Victoria: I told you whatever you wanted to hear so that you would sign everything away. I wanted out of this marriage and I want you out of this company.

Ashland: No, just — just hold on for one second. Wh–

Victoria: You pride yourself on being one step ahead of everyone else. Are you telling me you didn’t see this coming?

Ashland: Okay, okay, I will admit that I didn’t know what to think in the last few days, but when you agreed to run away with me to tuscany to — to — to get out of this town and start fresh, I thought that was our chance, victoria. I was overjoyed. I didn’t question it. I didn’t want to question it because I actually thought — and I still think — that we can get out of here and we could make this work.

Victoria: [ Groans ] Everything I said to you the past couple of days has been a lie. Not some grand fabrication that “I have cancer and I’m dying,” but a lie nonetheless. And now you know you’ve been deceived. So all of those feelings that you might be having right now of betrayal and humiliation, I know them — I know them well. It’s your turn now.

Sharon: Mr. Anderson, I told you that my husband wouldn’t appreciate — [ Gasps ] Oh, oh, it’s you.

Rey: I’m so sorry to disappoint.

Sharon: I’m not disappointed to see you ever.

Rey: Mwah.

Sharon: Especially in that jacket.

Rey: Mm. You like it?

Sharon: Very sharp. Did you get it for your trip to chicago?

Rey: No, no, not exactly, but I thought chicago would be a good place to debut it. Have you seen connor and chelsea?

Sharon: Not yet.

Rey: Thanks again for being okay with me going.

Sharon: No thanks necessary.

Rey: I know, I know, but it’s a little weird I’m taking another woman and her son to a hockey game.

Sharon: There’s nothing strange about it.

Rey: [ Chuckles ] I’m spending the night in chicago. A lot of wives would disapprove. Thank you for being so understanding.

Sharon: The most important thing is that connor will have a great time. And who are we kidding? I think that you’re more excited than he is.

Rey: Oh, it’s my first live hockey game, huh?

Sharon: Mm-hmm.

Rey: There they are!

Connor: Hey, rey.

Rey: What’s up, buddy? Ready for the big game?

Connor: Yeah, it’s going to be so fun. I get to watch the blackhawks in person, but the best part is i get to go with you, rey. No offense, mom.

Chelsea: Oh, listen, none taken. I’m just along for the ride. I feel like I’m a chaperone for these two because rey actually knows the sport and how to play the game.

Rey: Don’t undersell yourself, chelsea. It’s gonna be a great night for all of us, huh?

Victor: Thank you, son. Well, your deal worked. Ashland locke hopefully will be out of our lives very soon.

Adam: Mm. Well, it was my idea, but when ashland asked if you were on board, you backed me up. And that’s what made it successful.

Victor: We make a good team.

Adam: I’m sure victoria’s gonna be irritated that the plan that worked wasn’t hers. She never got the satisfaction, even temporarily, of throwing me under the bus. She would have loved to see me squirm.

Victor: There’s no place for sibling rivalry right now, okay? Considering what your sister’s gone through, just be happy to be rid of that fraud, okay? You should have feelings of compassion now for your sister, not competition. Alright?

Victoria: Do you know how insulting it is that you thought I would believe you were set up? I mean, how stupid did you think I would have to be to think that someone would go to all the trouble of making it look like you had faked your illness for months? Do you take me for an idiot, ashland?

Ashland: No, no, I do not. But, victoria, what was i supposed to do? With all the evidence that was being built up against me, was i supposed to come to you and say, “hey, that this terrible thing, I lied, I made a mistake”? Would you have forgiven me for that? Could you have forgiven me?

[ Sighs ] No, I don’t think so. And, no, I didn’t actually believe that you were gonna buy into the story that I had been set up. I — not in your head. But in your heart — in your heart, I thought maybe you wanted to believe it was the truth. That’s what I was hoping for.

Victoria: And that’s why you kept lying?

Ashland: I was stalling. I was trying to buy time because I honestly believed that our love would win out in the end, that — that somehow we could — we could go off and have a future together.

Victoria: Future? After what you did to me, we could never, ever have a future.

Ashland: I still think that we —

Victoria: No, stop it. There’s no point in you continuing to lie to me. You didn’t get control of newman/locke, okay? So maybe you just can take some comfort in what you do have — you have money and you have freedom.

Ashland: I don’t give a damn about the money. And I don’t care about the freedom if it means going off without you. All I want is you. Sweet pillows of softness!

Victor: Son… I did give you credit for coming up with the idea that finally got rid of ashland locke. But it’s not enough for you, is it?

Adam: [ Chuckles ]

Victor: Huh? You should be happy we’ll get rid of that son of a bitch. He’s out of our company, out of victoria’s life.

Adam: I agree. I agree. I retract my comment.

Victor: Alright.

Adam: I will try to focus on staying positive.

Victor: Good.

Adam: As hard as this is for victoria, I know that she’s going to move past it, no matter how long it takes. I’ll give her credit for being tough.

Victor: And I do, trust me.

Adam: Mm-hmm.

Victor: She’s endured a lot.

Adam: Yeah, but I also recognize that this is gonna take a while to move past. She’s gonna need time to recover. And even though she is tough, you know, we need to do what’s best for her moving forward.

Victor: Exactly.

Adam: You know the brilliant part of my plan is we get to keep everything that locke brought into the merger. We now have complete control over his empire, along with newman enterprises. I mean, we almost doubled our value for a mere $500 million. That’s a bargain.

Victor: [ Chuckles ] Interesting how things work out sometimes, isn’t it?

Victoria: All you want is me.

[ Scoffs ] Oh, wow, you — you are relentless. And you do not lack commitment, I’ll give you that. Commitment to the scam, not to me, obviously. But you have — you’ve played the dutiful, devoted husband all the way to the bitter end.

Ashland: I’m not playing at anything. It’s what I believe. You have to know that.

Victoria: I don’T. Why don’t you just admit it — admit what you did?

Ashland: I have.

Victoria: No. No, you haven’T. The whole thing. I want to know how you used me. I-I want to know how you could sink to such a disgusting low, lying about a disease that — that ruins so many people’s lives.

Ashland: You want the whole story, you want the truth?

Victoria: Yeah, I do. I do.

[ Laughs ] I think I deserve that.

Ashland: Fine. Here it is. I lied about having cancer.

Victoria: Finally. Finally some honesty. There’s a start.

Ashland: But that’s not the whole truth, victoria. The whole truth is not what you think it is. I didn’t come here with my sights set on newman enterprises. But then this thing happened. I found out my wife was cheating on me and that my son harrison was not my biological son, and in that moment, everything changed for me.

Victoria: You would use your child as an excuse?

Victoria: I was devastated. I was furious. The — the infamous locke ness monster kicked in the gut. But I saw an opportunity.

[ Chuckles ] Something bigger than I’d ever done before. And I channeled all of that righteous anger into going after your family’s company.

Victoria: Well, you didn’t waste any time, did you? You asked me to new york to have dinner with you after you learned about harrison.

Ashland: That’s right.

Victoria: And while we were there, you told me about your cancer diagnosis.

Ashland: I had momentum. I was moving forward.

[ Chuckles ] And it was so, so easy to sell the story that the scans after my heart attack showed signs of cancer.

Victoria: You know…I was surprised that you wanted me around when you were dealing with that news. I mean, we were — we were basically strangers, and now i know why. I know why. Because you knew that it would create an instant bond and that we would have trust and intimacy, and, of course, you would induce compassion out of me. Yeah, it was all very deliberate.

Ashland: That’s right.

Victoria: You know it’s one thing for you to do something like this to me, but how could you let that sweet, little, innocent boy think that you were dying? What defense do you have of that behavior?

Ashland: None. But I did what I could to keep harrison out of it.

Victoria: And that’s why you didn’t fight kyle in taking him to italy.

Ashland: That’s right.

Victoria: Because you could continue your scam and you could get all of your business arrangements in place, and then you would make the announcement that you had miraculously recovered. And you wouldn’t have to look that little boy in the eye and lie to him the way you did to me.

Ashland: I don’t deny any of it. I took advantage of you, of your immense heart. I worked an angle to win your love and your trust.

Victoria: You convinced me and everybody else that you were dying. Death — that was your angle?

Ashland: It was.

Victoria: All of it was to get your hands on my family’s company. And the merger — I mean, the merger was like your ultimate power grab. It was also the most selfish and disgusting move of your entire career.

Ashland: All of that is true. In fact, there was a time that i was even proud of myself. Can you believe that? But then this other thing happened. Something extraordinary. Something shocking. I, honest to god, fell in love with you. I’m steve, I lost 138 pounds in nine months on golo

Chelsea: Now, you behave. Thank you so much, sharon.

Sharon: Hope this will be enough.

Chelsea: I don’t mean just for the snacks. I mean for lending us rey for the evening. It really means a lot to connor.

Sharon: Yeah, I know it does. And I think staying in chicago tonight after the game makes sense.

Chelsea: Yeah, I mean, it’s just so late for connor, you know? The game doesn’t end till after his bedtime.

Sharon: Yeah. And it can get pretty foggy this time of year. It might not be that safe driving home so late. I just want you to bring rey home safe and sound.

Chelsea: We will do that.

Sharon: Um…you know what? Besides, I-I’m gonna have the house to myself tonight, and i can sit on the couch and watch my shows — the ones that rey always pretends to like, for my sake.

Chelsea: Yeah, sounds like a perfect evening.

Rey: So what are you most excited about seeing live?

Connor: A slap shot, ’cause I’m working on mine. It’s a really complicated move.

[ Grunts ]

Rey: Oh, give me some. Yes, sir.

Sharon: So any special requests for the road?

Chelsea: No. Plus, it looks like you put one of everything in here, so thank you. It’s very generous.

Sharon: It’s my pleasure.

Chelsea: Is it?

Sharon: What do you mean?

Chelsea: I just mean you’re going above and beyond to help prepare us for this trip to chicago.

Sharon: Is that a problem?

Chelsea: I don’t know. I get the sense that you’re not happy about this trip. But you’re working hard to come off like you are okay with it, so I just want to know, truly, are you okay with everything that’s happening tonight?

Nick: I keep calling victoria. There’s no answer.

Nikki: Well, I left her at the office a little while ago while ashland was talking to victor and adam. Did everything go as planned?

Victor: Ashland locke accepted the offer to leave. And he signed away control of both companies.

And he annulled his marriage to our daughter.

Nikki: Oh, thank god.

Nick: Wow.

Nikki: Well, I guess adam’s plan worked.

Nick: Good job, adam.

Nikki: I admit, I was a little skeptical, but you really came through.

Adam: Thank you. It’s all about helping the family.

Nick: Does victoria know yet?

Victor: Yeah, I told her as soon as locke left the office.

Nick: How did she react?

Victor: She didn’T. I have a feeling that she’s in the office right now, and I feel that ashland locke is with her.

Nick: Wonder how that conversation is going.

Victor: Yeah.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] I hope it’s nothing more than “goodbye and good riddance.” Victoria did tell me that she intended to walk away from him, but in order to get her to agree to this deal, she had to make him think that they would still be together in spite of the annulment.

Nick: And now he knows that is not the case.

Nikki: I hope so. I have no idea how he’s gonna react or the toll that it will take on victoria. He is just such a terrible person. But her feelings for him were real. She’s still reconciling the relationship she thought they had with the reality.

Nick: Vick’s a very strong, very proud woman. I know she can handle herself. It’s ashland I’m worried about.

Victoria: You “honest to god” fell in love with me. You know, I would be shocked if you even understood what any of those words even mean.

Ashland: I do. And I know they’re true.

Victoria: Those are empty words coming from a man who doesn’t have faith in anyone or anything but himself.

Ashland: I believe that we can get past this, victoria. I still believe that. I have never loved anyone as profoundly as I love you. Without you, if I walk out that door, I will be a lost man, without direction. No idea where to go. For the first time in my life, i don’t know what to do next.

Rey: What do you think — am I too old to learn how to play hockey?

Connor: Of course not.

Rey: Cool, so maybe after our trip, you can take me down to the rink, show me some things?

Connor: That would be cool.

Sharon: Of course I’m okay with rey going to chicago with you and connor. Why wouldn’t I be? And he told me how it happened. You had a business trip out of town, so you asked rey to take connor to the game, and then your trip got postponed, but you managed to get another ticket and you still wanted rey to come.

Chelsea: Well, connor had his heart set on it.

Sharon: I think it’ll be good for rey. He really likes how connor looks up to him.

Chelsea: I didn’t think that you had an issue with rey taking connor to the game. I thought maybe you would have an issue with rey spending time with me, given our history.

Sharon: Do you mean the history between you and me or history between you and rey, given that you once poisoned him?

Chelsea: All of it. I just want you to be comfortable, sharon.

Sharon: Well, I think I’ve made it very clear that my position is this is all behind us, in the past. And I know that you’re doing a lot better — much better than you have been doing in a very long time.

Chelsea: I am. I am, and I would never do anything to undermine that. You and rey have been so kind to me since I came back to town. You’ve offered me friendship again, which is shocking ’cause I really don’t deserve it. I won’t forget it.

Sharon: I’m sure you won’T.

Chelsea: That’s why I just want to live my best life from here on out. It’s also why I’m being up front with you. I hope you’ll be the same with me.

Victor: Why would you say you’re worried about locke?

Nick: We have to watch ashland until we are certain he’s gone for good.

Victor: Well, I told them to watch him all the time. Okay? I asked them to stop watching victoria and follow ashland locke. If that man makes one wrong step, I’m gonna get him.

Victoria: I have no sympathy for you. I have — I have none left to give. You had every opportunity to come to me before tonight, but all I got from you was lie upon lie. And the only reason you came clean is because you were backed into a corner. You got caught. That’s not love.

Ashland: I know it looks that way from your point of view, victoria, but —

Victoria: And then you told me that there was nothing left to hide, but there was — there always was more. And what is so demoralizing is that I knew it. I saw who you were because you showed me who you were over and over again. Taking your — your dead best friend’s identity so that you could start a new life, and then forging a letter so that you could get your hands on your mentor’s fortune. And I believed all of your excuses. I believed them, and I looked past them. I looked past all of your former sins because I wanted to believe that you had changed.

Ashland: I have —

Victoria: I wanted to believe that that was because of me.

Ashland: I have changed. I gave up my life’s work — locke communications group — i did that to show you I would do anything for you.

Victoria: Why would I believe anything that comes out of your mouth? Why? It’s over! And when you walk out of those doors, I don’t care what happens to you.

Ashland: I don’t believe you.

Who’s on it with jardiance?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Sharon: I think transparency is a great idea. Honestly, I’m really glad that we get along these days. It’s a relief. Don’t you think?

Chelsea: It is.

Sharon: Alright, so let’s not go looking for problems where there are none.

Chelsea: I’m really glad you feel that way, because you have nothing to worry about.

Connor: Mom, we should go soon.

Chelsea: I think you’re right. We should.

Rey: I hope I get to catch a puck.

Chelsea: I just hope you don’t catch it with your teeth.

Rey: Oh, well, that would make for a fun night, huh?

[ Laughter ]

Ashland: I deserve your scorn, your outrage, your hatred. All of that is justified, but i think deep down inside you are as conflicted as I am. There is still something between us, victoria. Let’s get out of here. Leave your family, leave this town, and start over.

Victoria: I am starting over. But not with you.

Ashland: Okay. The only thing left to say is… I’m sorry.

Nick: Any word from the security detail?

Victor: It seems that locke is leaving the building alone. Hopefully our daughter’s done with him once and for all.

Victoria: [ Screams ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Panting ] Are you one of the millions of americans

Nikki: Oh, my god.

[ Gasps ]

Nick: What happened here?

Nikki: I thought you said ashland left peacefully.

Victor: They assured me he did.

Nikki: [ Sighs ]

Victor: I bet you…victoria did this.

Adam: I can’t say I blame her for needing to blow off some steam, but seems like the work of someone who’s in a lot of pain.

Nick: I’m gonna call security. Yeah, this is nick newman. When’s the last time anyone saw my sister in the building? Was she alone? Alright, thanks. Security saw victoria leaving the parking garage five minutes ago. No sign of ashland.

Nikki: I’m calling her.

Victor: Please, sweetheart, just give her some time alone, okay? Why don’t we — I don’t know, let’s just get out of here.

Nick: Yeah, why don’t we grab something to eat?

Adam: Uh, I appreciate the invitation, but actually I have some things that I need to take care of, so let me know if there’s anything else that I can help with.

Victor: Okay, we’ll do that.

Nikki: What could have made her do this?

Victor: [ Sighs ]

Nick: Alright, let’s, uh — let’s go with society, okay? I got to make a quick stop, but I’ll meet you there. Mom? Dad?

Victor: I’m sorry, son, I’m checking with security right now. We’ll be seeing you at the restaurant, okay?

Nick: Mom, I know you’re worried, alright? But I think dad’s right — vick just needs some space, alright? Let’s give her some time alone and respect her choice.

Nikki: I just want to help her get through this as best i can.

Victor: [ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ] This is so upsetting. We all will, my darling, when the time is right.

Adam: Sally. I have great news. My plan worked. That’s right. Locke is on his way out of town right now, all thanks to me. Yeah, my father is very happy. He’s very appreciative. No, I don’t know, I didn’t want to push the “can I keep the job” angle. It just didn’t seem like the appropriate time. But, you know, when the dust settles, I will broach the subject with him. I agree. I think ashland’s departure is cause for celebration. Uh, well, let’s meet somewhere. That works for me. I, uh — I will be there.

Rey: Alright, we’re going now.

Sharon: Great, I have two coffees for the road — one for you, one for chelsea.

Rey: Wow, you’re the best.

Sharon: Well, if I’m not the best, I’m pretty high up there.

Rey: You definitely are.

Sharon: Would you please call or text when you get to chicago? I just want to know that you’re safe.

Rey: I will, I will, but don’t you worry — I got connor to protect me.

Sharon: Right.

Rey: [ Chuckles ]

Sharon: Wait.

Rey: You remember that when i get back.

Sharon: I will. I love you.

Rey: I love you. Alright, let’s hit the road.

Connor: Yeah!

Rey: Okay, I got coffee, snacks, my phone, keys, tickets.

Chelsea: Yeah, I have my ticket right here. You have the ones for you and connor?

Rey: For sure. Where are they?

Chelsea: Oh, did you forget the tickets?

Rey: Oh, I must have left them in my other jacket. Mm.

Connor: Oh, no.

Rey: But it’s okay, it’s all good. I’ll drive home, pick them up, meet you guys back here, and then we’ll head out.

Chelsea: Yeah, it’ll be okay.

Connor: I don’t want to be late for the game. Please hurry.

Rey: I will. I’ll be back before you know it, okay?

Sharon: See you soon.

Rey: See you soon. If your moderate to severe crohn’s disease

Chelsea: We’ll just wait out here, get out of the way.

Nick: Hey, I’m glad you’re here.

Sharon: Hey, what’s up?

Nick: Well, it turns out you were right.

Sharon: About what?

Nick: Victoria absolutely does not want me intervening with ashland, and she told me that when I went to see her.

Sharon: Were you at least able to be supportive like i suggested?

Nick: I tried my very best. The good news is ashland has decided to accept adam’s deal, so we’re not gonna have to deal with him for very much longer.

Sharon: Well, that’s good news for victoria and for the newmans in general.

Nick: It’s a giant relief. You know, I got to hand it to adam. He really stepped up for the family. My concern is he’s not just gonna accept a thank-you card for his efforts.

Sharon: What do you mean?

Nick: I think it’s gonna be very difficult to get him out of the ceo seat, so we may have gotten rid of one mess, but there’s another one right around the corner.

Sharon: Well, I hope not.

Nick: You alright?

Sharon: Yeah, just, uh, been a long day.

Adam: Sally? Sally? “Get comfortable and enjoy. Drink to your success. I’ll be back soon.” To a new beginning.

Victoria: Call mom, mobile.

[ Cellphone vibrates ]

Nikki: [ Gasps ] Victoria, where are you?

Victoria: I’m driving.

Nikki: Well, I’m so happy to hear from you. Your father and I are at society. Can you come join us?

Victoria: That sounds lovely, mom, but I need to do some thinking.

Nikki: Okay. I understand.

Victoria: I just wanted to call you and let you know that I’m okay.

Nikki: Well, I’m so glad you did. And don’t worry, everything will work out.

Victoria: Will it, really?

Nikki: Yes, of course it will.

Victoria: Because I really don’t think that anything is gonna be okay ever again. I loved him. I did, and he made a fool out of me. And I kept going back to him. I almost left with him tonight.

Nikki: Victoria, where are you? I will come get you.

Victoria: What is wrong with me? How could I let this happen? I loved him.

Nikki: Listen to me. I want you to pull over right now. Your father and I will come find you. And everything’s gonna be fine.

Victoria: No, everything is not gonna be fine. I keep making the same mistakes with men. [ Screams ]

[ Brakes squeal ]

[ Crashing ]

Nikki: Victoria?! Victoria?

[ Feet shuffling in distance ]

[ Feet shuffling ]

Drew: Ha-ha! [ Breathing sharply ] Oh! Whoa-oh-oh!

[ Both breathing heavily ]

Drew: What is this?

Michael What? What do you mean? What?

Drew: You taking it easy on me because I’m family?

Michael: Oh, since when does our family go easy on each other, huh?

Drew: Aha. That’s a good point. That’s a good point.

Michael: [ Sighs ] Yeah, I suppose I am a little distracted, though.

[ Boxing gloves tap ]

Michael: I, uh — look, Nina’s taking us to court.

Drew: [ Sighing ] Oh. Over Wiley?

Michael: Yeah. [ Sighs ]

Drew: [ Sighs ]

Michael: And I talked Willow into fighting back in a way that, uh, well, let’s just say, might have some serious repercussions.

Drew: [ Sighs deeply ] That’s it. Come on. Get it out there. There you go. Oh, oh. I see, I see.

TJ: Grandpa. Hey.

[ Bag thuds ]

TJ: I just saw Aunt Stella.

Marshall: And?

TJ: She fussed all over me, said it doesn’t look like I’m eating enough.

Marshall: Well, it sounds like she’s back to her old self.

TJ: Right.

Marshall: That’s good.

TJ: Mm-hmm. I made sure to let uncle Curtis now. Nothing’s more important to him than family.

Portia: I’ve seen you go outside the law time and time again to protect your family.

Jordan: And it’s brought nothing but trouble. Which is why I have to play everything by the book.

Portia: Oh, of course you do now, because this is my daughter we’re talking about. Which begs the question… you know what? Never mind. Mnh-mnh.

Jordan: No. You clearly want to say something, so say it.

Portia: I want to know if you’re making this personal, Jordan.

Jordan: I have no reason to make this personal.

Portia: Oh? Oh, really? ‘Cause I can think of one. He used to be your husband.

Jordan: [ Scoffs ]

Curtis: Okay, ladies, take a breath, all right? Before something is said that you can’t take back.

Cameron: Hey, Spencer. Why don’t you put on an apron and — I don’t know — help?

Spencer: All of my energy needs to go into busting Esme right now.

Cameron: Well, some of us can chew gum while we walk. You should try it sometime.

Spencer: You didn’t tell Joss anything, right? About my plan?

Josslyn: Maybe we should try Charlie’s.

Valentin: I considered bringing roses. But they die. Whereas a 2010 Pauillac blend from Bordeaux is immortal.

Anna: I do like roses, though. How are you?

Valentin: I’m better now… that I’m looking at you.

Harmony: No matter what I’ve done, Willow, I’ve done it for you.

Willow: Oh, wait. What do you — what do you mean you did it for me? What have you done?

Harmony: Oh, just, um, for starters, I — I declined Nina’s lawyer’s request to speak on her behalf at the hearing.

Willow: Nina’s behalf?

Harmony: Yeah, and I hope it doesn’t backfire and make her even angrier.

Willow: [ Scoffs ] Mom. There is no depth that woman won’t sink to. First, she asks you to try and convince me, your own daughter, to let her see Wiley, and now she wants you to go against me in court? I mean, how does anyone so underhanded live with herself?

Harmony: I wish I knew.

[ Water splashing softly, bell clangs in distance ]

Alexis: Oh, my god.

Anna: How was your convalescence?

Valentin: Uh, it was too long. Anna, the wine is an apology.

Anna: Yeah.

Valentin: I’m sorry that I stayed away, that I was out of touch.

Anna: I was worried when I couldn’t reach you. [ Breathes deeply ] But I understand your health takes the priority. How’s charlotte?

Valentin: Uh, she’s away at her new boarding school. Seems happy enough.

Anna: I didn’t realize that she was away.

Valentin: Mm. It was a quick decision, but ultimately a good one.

Anna: Oh. Must be very lonely for you when you return home and she’s not there.

Valentin: I’ll survive. I hear you’ve been doing some traveling.

Anna: Not for pleasure.

Valentin: Congratulations. It was a long and winding road, but you stopped Peter.

Anna: I did.

Marshall: Friendly wager?

TJ: Okay.

Marshall: Let’s see who can lift more.

TJ: Ha! That’s easy money, old man.

Marshall: [ Chuckles ] Those are famous last words coming from I-need-more-meat-on-my-bones.

TJ: Okay. Look. That’s according to Aunt Stella. Look, I could weigh a million pounds, and she would still say the same thing.

Marshall: Yeah, you’re probably right. Mm-hmm.

TJ: But I’m worried about her. I hope she finds a way to manage her anxiety.

Marshall: Your Aunt Stella is a tough cookie.

TJ: You know, being strong has nothing to do with addressing mental health challenges. To get help, she has to seek out that treatment.

Marshall: Mm.

TJ: Do you know what’s on her mind?

Marshall: Oh, come on. [ Chuckles ] Your — your Aunt Stella doesn’t confide in me.

TJ: I mean, it seemed that way. You two had your heads together right before she collapsed.

[ Feet shuffling ]

Drew: Whoa! [ Chuckling ] Hey. Ha! That’s what I’m talking about! He’s back.

Michael: Okay.

Drew: All right. Hey. Look, man, you’re — you’re not doing anything wrong, okay? I would fight for my kids the same way.

Michael: [ Sighs ] Yeah, I’m not sure you’d approve of my tactics, though.

Drew: Oh? You’d be surprised. [ Breathes deeply ] Let me guess — you’re employing questionable strategies to ensure necessary results.

Michael: Yeah.

Drew: Believe me, I’ve been there.

Curtis: It is probably best if we do this in private.

Jordan: I don’t think we need to do this at all.

Portia: So you don’t think that we need to address the elephant in the room, especially since it’s gonna impact my daughter?

Jordan: I was with Curtis. Now he’s with you. Neither of those facts have any bearing on Trina’s situation.

Portia: But it could have an impact on how vigorously you pursue other suspects, other theories. Jordan, given that Trina is my blood, are you telling me that you honestly can be impartial?

Curtis: Uh, you know what? Why don’t we step back? Portia, no one is questioning your right to fight for Trina, and no one is questioning your professionalism.

Jordan: Are you in the same room I am? I resent the implication that my feelings towards Curtis have any bearing on my actions as Police Commissioner, let alone something as important as this.

Portia: So you admit that you do still have feelings for Curtis?

Trina: I’m not going anywhere.

Josslyn: Agreed. Spencer’s the one who should leave.

Spencer: How you doing?

Trina: Does it matter?

Spencer: Of course it matters.

Jordan: Then get your psycho girlfriend to fess up already.

Spencer: Can we please not talk about Esme?

Josslyn: Aw. I thought she was your favorite subject.

Cameron: Okay, look, Spencer was just heading out, right?

Josslyn: What are you even doing here in the first place?

Spencer: It is a public space, last I checked. I mean, with Cameron. Just like us, he wants nothing to do with you.

Cameron: Spencer, uh, came to ask about being put back on the schedule.

Josslyn: [ Scoffs ] You’re not actually giving him his job back?

Spencer: I’m sorry, and how is this your business?

Josslyn: She’s my best friend, and you hurt her. That’s why it’s my business.

Spencer: I want to protect Trina, too!

Drew: You’re a good father, Michael. You’re gonna make the right decision for your family.

Michael: Thanks. So, uh, how’s Scout?

Drew: Fantastic. Oh? She — she asked me to coach her swim team.

Michael: Whoa. [ Chuckles ]

Drew: Right?

Michael: Okay, okay. That — that — hey, that’s awesome, man. I’m happy for you.

Drew: Yeah, thanks. Me too.

Michaeel: So, uh, well, now that things are settled on the Scout front, what’s next?

[ Metal clinks lightly ]

Drew: Can you narrow that down a little bit for me?

Michael: I mean, in terms of your career — you know, what’s — what’s Drew Cain’s future look like?

[ Police radio chatter ]

Rory: Are you cold, Ms. Davis? I have a blanket in my squad car.

Alexis: No, I’m just, uh, shocked.

Rory: Do you know the victim?

Alexis: He was face down. I didn’t see him. I hope not. Happening upon a dead body was not in my plans today.

Rory: Uh, what did you have planned? Can you tell me why you were at the pier and — and what you were doing when you found the body?

Alexis: Y-yes. I was on my way to Spoon Island, and, uh, my nephew lives there. I was gonna visit him.

Willow: Mom…really, are you all right?

Harmony: Yeah. Yes. Uh, yeah, it’s just been, um, it’s been a helluva day. Uh. But I’m so much better now that I’m sitting here with you. Can we please change the subject? [ Chuckles ] How’s nursing school going?

Willow: [ Breathes deeply ] I am studying hard for my final exam.

Harmony: Wow.

Willow: Mm.

Harmony: You’re graduating nursing school. I just [Laughs] — I am unbelievably proud of you.

Willow: Well, back at you.

Harmony: What? You’re proud of me?

Willow: [ Chuckles ] Were you not listening before? Yes, you’ve made mistakes, but you’ve taken responsibility and you’ve put all that behind you.

Harmony: I hope you know that… it doesn’t mean I’m not gonna make more mistakes. Willow, you know I have weaknesses, just like everybody else.

Willow: That’s exactly my point. [ Chuckles ] You own up to those weaknesses. You admit who you were and what you did and who you hope to be. It’s honest… and it’s very brave. [ Scoffs ] So am I proud of you? [ Thumps table ] Damn straight I am.

Harmony: [ Sighs ]

Curtis: I think what really matters is that we’re doing best by Trina.

Portia: That’s what I’m trying to do. But you can’t even defend the fact that she’s not even trying to help. Uh. [ Sighs ] [ Voice breaking ] I need to take a minute. Excuse me.

[ Door opens ]

[ Telephone rings in distance ]

Curtis: [ Breathes deeply ]

[ Door closes ]

Curtis: Portia’s under a lot of pressure. [ Sighs ]

Jordan: I know. And I’d be doing the same thing if I were in her shoes. She’s worried about her kid — I get that.

Curtis: Thanks for understanding and for not losing your cool. You know, it’s, uh, I’m sure it’s frustrating, you know, for Portia, not knowing the whole truth.

Jordan: That I am as committed to finding the real perpetrator as you are? I’m doing everything I can to look deeper.

Curtis: I know you are, and, uh, I appreciate it, along with the fact that you called me when they brought Trina in for questioning.

Jordan: [ Sighs ]

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Curtis: Oh, um, Jordan. About, uh, what Portia said about your feelings…

Jordan: work.

[ Ringing continues ]

Curtis: Do what you gotta do.

Jordan: Commissioner Ashford.

Spencer: I’m still your friend, Trina.

Josslyn: Oh, my god.

Spencer: What?

Josslyn: Yeah, Spencer, you’re a really good friend. You know, you’re protecting a criminal who violated us and framed her for it.

Spencer: You know what, Joss? Someday, you’re gonna be embarrassed that you assumed the worst of me.

Josslyn: Oh. Is that a threat? No, I just —

Britt: Ah, ah. Spencer, I think we should leave now. Let’s go.

Spencer: I hope that we can talk soon.

Trina; Thanks, but I think I’ve heard enough from you. [ Sighs ]

Anna: It was always my intention to hold Peter accountable so that his victims could have their day in court, have some kind of closure. But in the end…he’d just given in to his worst impulses, and he was almost a mirror image of Faison. I just — I couldn’t allow that to continue.

Valentin: I don’t blame you. He couldn’t be redeemed, Anna. There was nothing left to do. Just put him in the ground and keep the world safe from him. And Felicia did that.

But it was my call not to summon help. I chose not to. I let Peter die.

Spencer: Now that we’re seated [ Sighs ] Why are we here?

Britt: Your antics cost me the coffee I wanted at Kelly’s. You can order whatever you want — it’s on me.

Spencer: You don’t have to buy me dinner.

Britt: Oh, don’t you worry. You’ll be singing for your supper. So, uh, what’s happening with your friends?

Spencer: Pretty sure they’d say “former friends” now.

Britt: No way. You, Cameron, and Joss have been getting into mischief together since you were adorable little twerps.

Spencer: We grew up.

Britt: Grew up and started threatening each other?

Spencer: That wasn’t a threat. Joss misunderstood.

Britt: Well, maybe you should make her understand.

Spencer: What I was trying to say was she’d be sorry if she accused me of not caring about what happened to them.

Britt: Are you talking about the sex tape? Hey, I don’t — I don’t understand. Why would they think you wouldn’t care?

Spencer: Because I’m still with Esme. Or not not with her, at least. And they think that she’s responsible for the sex tape.

Britt: Okay. What do you think?

Drew: Honestly, I don’t know what my plans are. I mean, there’s Aurora, obviously. I just haven’t — just haven’t really found my sweet spot yet.

Michael: Well, I’d love to bounce some ideas around with you…

Drew: Mm!

Michael: …If you’re game.

Drew: Always.

Michael: Yeah? Okay. ‘Cause I have some thoughts on how to grow digital.

Drew: See, just the way you’re even talking about it, like, that passion, I — I just wish I had as much passion for the company as you do.

Michael: Well, you know, if not Aurora, there’s always ELQ.

Drew: [ Sighs ] Ah. Uh, that’s dicey territory there.

Michael Well, yeah, with our family, what isn’t?

Drew: [ Chuckles ]

[ Water bottle lid opens ]

[ Metal clinks ]

Michael: Now, have you given any thought into getting your shares back from Valentin?

Drew: [ Breathes sharply ]

Valentin: Tell me you’re not feeling guilty.

Anna: I did. Yeah, I mean, I denied medical attention to my own nephew. I waited, and I watched him take his last breath.

Valentin: Could he have even been saved?

Anna: We’ll never know, will we? And I carried that burden. But I don’t know. I mean, now I feel… at peace [Sighs] A little bit.

Valentin: Good.

Anna: I-I realized that we can talk all we want about the responsibility that we may bear in terms to who Peter became. But the fact is, he was an adult, and — and he forged his own path, and at every opportunity, he chose the wrong one.

Valentin: You’re a hero.

Anna: No. God, no. No, no. No. I would not say that.

Valentin: I’m saying it.

Anna: Would you have done the same thing?

Valentin: Yes, I absolutely would have done the same thing. And that last breath that Peter took — I would have enjoyed watching him take it.

Willow: Well, I think I’ll try and grab a quick hug from Michael before heading to the hospital.

Harmony: Ah, young love.

Willow: Oh, not so young anymore.

Harmony: Oh, my goodness. Bite your tongue.

Willow: [ Chuckles ]

Harmony: [ Chuckles ]

Willow: You’re sure you’re okay?

Harmony: Yeah, yeah. Yes, I just — you know, I got to get used to being alone, on my own.

Willow: Uh, what does that mean?

Harmony: Just that I will be moving out of Alexis’s eventually.

Willow: Well [Scoffs] You may be living alone, but you have us, mom. Which reminds me, I’ve been meaning to ask you if you have some free time soon to take Wiley to the aquarium.

Harmony: Really?

Willow: Yes. He’s on this huge aquatic animal kick. I know he’d love it. [ Chuckles ]

Harmony: Not more than I would, so sign me up.

Willow: Okay, great. I really want Wiley to spend more time with his grandmothers, the ones who care and deserve to be in his life — that’s you, by the way. [ Chuckles ]

Harmony: I can’t wait.

Willow: Okay, well, then I’ll text you, and we’ll set it up.

Harmony: Yeah.

Willow: Okay.

Harmony: [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ]

Marshall: So, has my grandson picked a specialty yet?

TJ: Well, I’m still weighing my options. But I gotta say — assisting in surgeries has been really exciting.

Marshall: Ooh, what about it gets your heart pumping?

TJ: Yeah, um, I think it’s the constant mastery that’s required. Like, when I first picked up an arthroscope, it felt so foreign, and now it’s like an extension of my arm.

Marshall: I feel that way every time I pick up my clarinet. Mm-hmm.

TJ: Yes! The surgical team…

Marshall: right!

TJ: …Is like a band, you got your nurses…

Marshall: [ Scatting ]

TJ: …Your anesthesiologists…

Marshall: [ Scatting ]

TJ: …Your surgical techs.

Marshall: [ Scatting ]

TJ: Everyone lending their individual talent to create a symphony, yes.

Marshall: You know, I don’t think I’ve ever heard playing music compared to saving lives. But, hey, man, passion is passion. And I’m so happy that you found yours. Yeah. [ Laughs ]

Rory: So after getting a closer look, you confirmed it was a body in the water and then called 911.

Alexis: Correct.

[ Police radio chatter ]

[ Air horn blows in distance ]

Jordan: I’m sorry you had to see this. Yeah. If you’re done with your statement, you’re free to go.

Alexis: Thank you. I-I would really appreciate it.

[ Police radio chatter ]

Rory: Commissioner? License I.D.s the deceased as a Brendan Byrne.

[ Police radio chatter ]

Alexis: Did you say Brendan Byrne?

Jordan: You know him?

Alexis: I do.

Anna: I did what I did. I don’t think I regret it [Sighs] But I’m not a hero.

Valentin: Maybe none of us are. Well. In the end, you weighed your misgivings over letting Peter die… …against your desire to end the torment of others. And you sacrificed your own peace of mind to do it. I think that’s pretty heroic. You’re not convinced?

Anna: Would you be if it were you?

Valentin: Yes. I don’t have a problem making impossible decisions.

Anna: If Jennifer was framed, our next move is to find this man that she brought to her room. I think once we find Francois Olivier, then we should get the truth.

Valentin: I would never judge you for that. And I hope you would never judge me.

Spencer: Now [Sighs] The evidence points to Trina.

Britt: That doesn’t answer my question. Do you believe Trina filmed and released that video?

Spencer: She swears she didn’t. But so does Esme. So it doesn’t really matter who I believe, because either way, someone ends up hurt.

Britt: Yeah, that’s a really crappy position to be in.

Spencer: Have you ever been there? Where doing the right thing could make people hate you?

Britt: More than once. This is going to shock you, but interpersonal relationships are not my strong suit. Once you’re known for less-than-honorable intentions, it’s hard for people to recognize your good ones.

Spencer: Hard, but not impossible, right? There is still hope for me and my friends?

Cameron: I don’t want to come off like I’m team Spencer —

Josslyn: Oh, I hate this already.

Cameron: But he’s got to be in a weird position.

Josslyn: In what universe?

Cameron: Well, it must be a total mind trip to be told that your longtime girlfriend is actually a nightmare.

Josslyn: Okay, well, I have zero patience for any of this angst that Spencer might be feeling, okay? There’s a right and a wrong here, and it is so glaringly obvious. But Spencer is just so far under Esme’s spell, he refuses to see it.

Trina: I need a minute.

Josslyn: Hey. Do you want me to come with you?

Trina: No, I’m — I’m good.

Josslyn: Sticking up for Spencer? I mean, really?

Cameron: I’m not sticking up for him.

Josslyn: Well, it sure sounded like it.

Cameron: But I-I was just trying to put things in perspective.

Josslyn: There is no perspective.

Cameron: I heard you. There’s a right, and there’s a wrong —

Josslyn: But you don’t agree?

Cameron: I-I do, but there’s just so —

Josslyn: Well, Cam, you’re letting Spencer in here, hanging out. I mean, I ask him to leave, and you say nothing. Whose side are you on?

[ Telephone ringing in distance ]

Portia: [ Chuckles ] I thought you would have left by now.

Curtis: Is that what you want?

Portia: No. But I wouldn’t have blamed you if you did.

Curtis: I had to see that you were okay.

Portia: [ Sighs ] I am now. Curtis, I’m so sorry.

Curtis: About what?

Portia: [ Sighs ] I don’t know. Let me start from the top, um — uh, causing a scene, going off on Jordan when she didn’t deserve it, and somehow I was able to make Trina’s arrest about the three of us…

Curtis: Portia, there’s no apologies necessary, okay? You were terrified for your daughter. Nobody expects you to hold that in. Maybe not, but I could have done a whole lot better job of that. I mean, good God. [ Voice breaking ] I accused Jordan of punishing Trina because I happen to be with you now. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. [ Chuckling ] I’m overthinking everything.

Curtis: I mean, there’s nothing wrong with you, okay? [ Sighs ] You, uh — you were frustrated. I get it.

Portia: And do you think that Jordan will get it, too?

Jordan: How did you know Mr. Byrne?

Alexis: He’s ne– was the brother of my ex, Neil Byrne.

Jordan: Local?

Alexis: Uh, he’s not from Port Charles.

Jordan: When was the last time you saw him?

Alexis: Neil’s funeral. I-it was a while — a while back, a-and then just the other day.

Jordan: So you spent time with Mr. Byrne since he came to Port Charles?

Alexis: No, I wouldn’t consider it “spending time.” He stopped by my office. He needed help.

Jordan: What kind of help?

Alexis: Financial. He — he wasn’t specific. I think maybe he was looking for a job.

Jordan: Why you? And why so long after his brother had died?

Alexis: That’s what I would like to know, especially after the way he treated me at the funeral.

Jordan: How was that? I take it you and the deceased were not on the best of terms.

Drew: Oh, you’re right, you’re right. I gotta stop dragging my feet, and I have to make a decision about those shares.

Marshall: Drew. How’s it going?

Drew: Marshall. How are you?

Marshall: All right. I’m, uh… good. …I’m ready to pursue that job you offered.

Drew: Oh, uh, I-I’m — I’m sorry. The — the board already green-lit another candidate.

Marshall: [ Chuckling ] We just spoke about it a few days ago. You said you were still interviewing.

Drew: Yeah, we were until the right fit came along. I’m — I’m really sorry, but if another opportunity arises, I’ll be sure to let you know.

Marshall: [ Scoffs ] Will you?

Drew: I beg your pardon?

Marshall: It’s hard not to wonder if you ever had any intention of giving me a job.

Michael: Uh, look, I’m gonna go hit the showers, give you guys some time to talk.

Drew: No, that’s — that’s really not necessary. Mr. Ashford, with all due respect, you didn’t follow up.

Marshall: Yeah, yeah. So you had to move on.

Drew: That’s right.

Marshall: More like you and my son — my son — you got all you needed from that fake interview.

TJ: Wait. What does uncle Curtis have to do with this?

Marshall: You want me to tell him or should I? [ Breathes deeply ] Curtis and this man, they came up with a fake job opportunity in order to get me to agree to a background check.

TJ: No.

Marshall: Yes.

TJ: What?

Marshall: I’m just curious — who pitched the idea first? Was it you, Mr. Cain? Must be nice having all that time and money on your hands.

Michael: No, no, that’s unnecessary.

Drew: N– no. Let Mr. Ashford say his piece.

Marshall: Not all of us are born with silver spoons in our mouths, Mr. Cain. Some of us have to work to survive. But then again, you — you wouldn’t understand that, would you? Would you?

TJ: Grandpa.

Michael: Well, he’s [Scoffs] — He’s got you all wrong.

Drew: Ah. Actually, I think he summed up my situation perfectly.

Curtis: Jordan understands the pressure you’re under. She doesn’t hold it against you.

Portia: I still need to apologize. And I will. I will. But I don’t think that I was entirely wrong, Curtis.

Curtis: About?

Portia: I know that you left your marriage behind. But can you honestly say that Jordan has, too?

Curtis: I don’t know, but, um, I do know that, uh, Jordan won’t let her feelings impact the case. With Jordan, work comes first. Work always comes first. Our divorce is a testament to that.

Portia: I saw the look you two gave each other when I said she wasn’t impartial.

Curtis: Jordan believes that there’s, uh, more to Trina’s case than meets the eye.

Portia: Well, Trina feels the same way, too. I’m glad that somebody’s finally confirming it. Good. Uh, okay. So what’s Jordan doing to dig deeper?

Curtis: She’s doing what she can, but you know how it goes.

Portia: She can’t give you any details. Yeah, of course. [ Stammers ] You know what? I don’t even care. It’s at least comforting to know that Jordan doesn’t believe that this case should be closed.

Curtis: Baby… not by a long shot.

Cameron: Look, I’m on the side of truth, okay?

Josslyn: What does that even mean?

Trina: Please tell me we’re not still talking about Spencer.

Cameron: Well, I’m ready to move on.

Josslyn: Well, I’m not. Please promise me you’re not gonna put him back on the work schedule here.

Trina: Don’t block him because of me.

Josslyn: He deserves to be blocked, Trina.

Cameron: Okay. And what if he needs the money?

Josslyn: He doesn’t.

Trina: Okay, let’s just back this up.

Josslyn: He has no right to work here, Cam.

Cameron: Well, Joss, it’s my call. And if he wants his job back, I’m not gonna get in his way.

Josslyn: And if that stands in our way?

Cameron: Well, then maybe you guys have to find another place to hang out.

Anna: You understand that there’s no judgment between us, right? There never is. And oddly…I trust you.

Valentin: And I trust you.

Anna: Your father, not so much. Have you seen Victor lately?

Valentin: No. Why?

Anna: Doesn’t matter. It’s nice that you’re back.

Valentin: Mm.

Anna: I missed my compatriot while you were away.

Valentin: Is that what I’ve been reduced to? I’m a compatriot?

Anna: Do you want to be something more? Shall I open this bottle of wine?

Valentin: Mm-hmm. I would like nothing more, but I have to take a rain check.

Anna: Big plans, huh?

Valentin: Something like that, yeah.

Anna: Well, I can’t promise that this will be here when next you come.

Valentin: I wish I had been there with you when Peter died. And I-I-I understand completely that you are capable of taking care of it on your own.

Anna: I think that it had to be me — doing it without you.

Valentin: I get that. And we have been together all along. I just wish we could have seen it through together.

Anna: [ Sighs ] I wish that, too. I think being alone was what I needed — it certainly wasn’t what I wanted.

Valentin: You had Dante and Drew and F-Felicia.

Anna: Yeah. They were incredible. But in that moment when I looked down and I saw that Peter was gone, all I wanted was to look up and see you.

Harmony: [ Clears throat ] Hey, sorry. Can you remind me where the restroom is?

Waiter: [ Clicks tongue ] Yeah. It’s the second door on the right. Of course, duh. [ Chuckles ] It’s like I’ve never been here before. Thanks.

Alexis: If it’s all right with you, I’d — I’d like to go.

Jordan: Just one more question. You mentioned that Mr. Byrne had fallen on hard times.

Alexis: Yes.

Jordan: Did he strike you as desperate enough to end his life?

Alexis: Uh… do you think it’s suicide?

Jordan: I don’t know. I’ll need to wait for the medical examiner’s report, but I’m not ruling anything out.

Alexis: All right. Thank you.

Jordan: I thought you were heading to Spoon Island.

Alexis: I’m not really in the mood to visit anyone right now.

Jordan: Because you knew Mr. Byrne? Or because the circumstances surrounding his death are suspect?

Alexis: Jordan, if you have any more questions, you need to talk to my attorney. You know her — Diane Miller.

Jordan: I thought you might say that.

Britt: The only thing you have control over is you. Trust your gut — no matter the fallout.

Spencer: Thank you.

Britt: That’s pretty generic advice, but if it helped, I’m happy.

Spencer: You always help.

Britt: Moi? [ Laughs ]

Spencer: I mean it. Since I was a little kid, you’ve always been there for me, despite my [Breathes deeply]

Britt: Many screw-ups. Many, many screw-ups.

Spencer: Having you in my life has made a world of difference.

Britt: Spencer. Listen, whatever mistakes you’ve made, you are worthy of love — remember that.

Spencer: Only if you do, too. Thanks for dinner.

Britt: Anytime. [ Sighs ] I don’t care what you say, Mom. His cat is cute.

Josslyn: I cannot believe you’re not backing me on this. After what Spencer did to Trina…

Cameron: look, I know what Spencer did to Trina. It was all kinds of wrong, but we’re talking about a job here, not matching BFF tattoos.

Josslyn: You’re doing him a favor, Cam, and I cannot understand why.

Trina: Joss, it’s okay.

Josslyn: No, it’s not. It’s not okay. [ Scoffs ] Guys always forgive each other.

Cameron: Well, that’s ridiculous.

Josslyn: But true.

Cameron: No, so, what, I’m just lumped in with all the guys now?

Josslyn: Well, it’s news to me, too, Cam, but apparently my boyfriend is a part of some almighty boys’ club. I could never be civil with Spencer after he stood by that witch —

Cameron: You know, you could if you actually knew what he was up to!

Portia: You know, I never even asked you why you came here to the hospital.

Curtis: I’m more concerned about you.

Portia: [ Chuckles ] Unh-unh. I’m not buying that. Something’s wrong. Is it Aunt Stella or…?

Curtis: No, she’s fine, um, but you are on the right track. Has to do with family.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Curtis: Do you mind if I take this?

Portia: No, no, no. Go ahead. Take it.

Curtis: Hey, Drew. What’s up?

Drew: Marshall was just here.

Curtis: What happened?

Drew: He knows that the job at Aurora was a setup. I tried to convince him otherwise, but he was too quick.

Curtis: How’d he take it?

Drew: Not well. I’m sorry.

Marshall: Don’t be. [ Breathes deeply ] My father’s whole life is built on lies. I suppose at some point he should realize that one day they would catch up to him.

Alexis: Hi. I’ll have a cranberry and soda, please.

Harmony: No. No cranberry and soda. [ Chuckles ] She’ll have what I’m having.

Jordan: Rory, come here. What do you see?

Rory: Uh, red markings near the victim’s trachea.

Jordan: There’s blood pooling under the skin. Was this injury sustained pre- or post-mortem?

Rory: No time to bruise, so it probably occurred in the hours before he was in the water.

Jordan: Very good. And what can you tell me about the shape of the marks?

Rory: Consistent with fingers?

Jordan: Mm.

Rory: So he was grabbed, but when?

Jordan: That’s the million-dollar question. And the answer may tell us if it was suicide, an accident, or straight up murder.

Anna: Were you going on lots of walks while you were recuperating?

Valentin: What? Why would you ask that?

Anna: Because you’ve got a tan.

Valentin: Yeah, walks. It’s amazing what getting your legs moving will do for your mind and your spirit. I’ll see you again soon. Save me a glass of the Bordeaux.

Anna: Well. Bye. [ Sighs ]

[ Knock on door ]

Anna: Did you forget something?

On the next “General Hospital” —

Laura: You are suspect number one.

Esme (to Nikolas): You’ve changed your mind about me.

Cameron (to Spencer): If you won’t tell them, then I will.

Alexis (to Harmony): Who are you terrified of?

Ava (to Nina): What is this big new you texted me about?

Carly (to Sam): Was there anything that could help Trina?

Sonny: Case closed. That’s it.

Days of Our Lives Transcript

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Brady: Hey.

Chloe: Hey.

Brady: Here to celebrate?

Chloe: Celebrate what?

Brady: Don’t be modest. Slapping leo with that prenup. That was brilliant.

Chloe: I thought so too.

Brady: So how did he take it? Has he left town already?

Chloe: Nope.

Brady: What happened? I know that money-grubbing little creep didn’t sign the thing.

Chloe: That’s exactly what that money-grubbing little creep did.

Leo: How can I be upset? I would do anything for you, craig. Don’t you know that by now?

Craig: Yes, of course I do. I just felt like I put you on the spot insisting you sign that prenup.

Leo: You didn’t insist. You asked, very politely. And I hope you know that the reason I hesitated wasn’t about the money. I felt ambushed. Yet another attempt by your daughter and the haters to put me on a spit. If I hadn’t signed it, you could’ve ruined our wedding day, maybe even our whole marriage, because chloe and everyone else would’ve continued to think that I’m a gold digger. So I caved. I don’t like caving. I’m a very proud man.

Craig: And a selfless one. Just when I think I could’ve love you more. Thanks, babe. I promise you won’t regret it.

Jack: You drove all the way to o’hare to pick me up. You don’t have to carry my luggage.

Xander: You said you’d be my best man, jack. I owe you.

Jennifer: Xander! Gram’s garden looks absolutely stunning, and jack tells me it’s because of you.

Xander: Oh, I said I’d look after it.

Jennifer: I am just so glad to be home. Although I know that we missed so much while we were away.

Xander: Including some very sad news.

Jack: But we’re here to celebrate the good news.

Jennifer: Yes, and the fact that abigail’s home safe.

Jack: And gwen’s matron of honor. Let’s hope that this means that the two of them are finally patching things up.

Gwen: Abigail? What are you doing here?

Abigail: I heard ava vitali had been arrested, and I wanted to talk to her.

Gwen: Why? What could you and ava possibly have to talk about?

Ava: The person who attacked you was your sister, gwen.

Abigail: A lot.

Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “days of our lives.”

[Soft orchestration]

Abigail: I was hoping that ava might finally give me the name of the person who knocked me out at the air strip and helped get me kidnapped. Told her she might be able to use the information to leverage a plea deal.

Gwen: I see. And did she tell you what you wanted to know?

Abigail: Sadly, no. So what are you doing here at the police station on your wedding day?

Jack: So where are my two daughters?

Xander: Actually, they’re taking care of some wedding business, but they should be back here soon.

Jennifer: Wait, you do know you are not supposed to see your bride on wedding day.

Jack: Right?

Xander: Yeah. Sarah insisted on that, and we all know what happened to sarah, don’t we?

Jennifer: I talked to aunt maggie. It’s really terrible.

Xander: I just feel like if I’d been there that night with her, I could’ve protected her. And, well, anyway, I’m not very fond of that superstition.

Jack: It’s understandable.

Xander: And anyway, gwen and I woke up this morning and decided today was the day. We feel like we’ve already had enough bad luck and that finding each other is the beginning of a better life.

Jack: I really hope you do.

Xander: So shall I fill you all in on the details?

Jennifer: Yes! Please!

Jack: Yes! Of course, please! That would be helpful, yes.

Xander: Well, we’re having the ceremony tonight, in the square. And you’re getting two weddings for the price of one.

Jack: Two?

Jennifer: What? That’s exactly what we did. Who’s the other bride and groom?

Xander: Gwen is the only bride. A friend of hers is marrying his boyfriend. There’s going to be three grooms.

Craig: Pretty quiet on the way over here. It’s not like you.

Leo: Just thinking.

Craig: About the prenup.

Leo: You were right. Signing it was the only way to get chloe and sonny and everyone else to believe what you and I already know. I’m not marrying you for your money. I’m marrying you because you’re the love of my life.

Brady: Okay, this states if leo and craig break up, leo gets nothing. You sure leo read this?

Chloe: He did. Every word.

Brady: And he signed it?

Chloe: You know why? Because my father convinced him to.

Brady: Okay, well, at least you have the satisfaction of knowing leo can’t screw your dad over. I mean, justin writes up a good prenup. This thing has no loopholes in it.

Chloe: Yeah, well, brady, is it possible that we were wrong? Is it possible that leo stark wasn’t after my father for his money? What if he’s actually marrying him for love?

Craig: Hey. You and I are getting married in a few hours. I think maybe we should try and get ready.

Leo: True. My toilette does take a while.

Craig: Yes, but there’s only one bathroom. We could shower together, maybe save some time.

Leo: I don’t think that would be much of a time save. Besides, there is something I want to talk to you about before the wedding.

Craig: Okay? You look serious. What is it?

Leo: I have a confession to make. It’s my 4:05, the-show-must-go-on,

Gwen: I came here because I was looking for you.

Abigail: Oh, well, when I came in, you seemed surprised to see me. And what’s with the hat? It’s april.

Gwen: Oh, right, yeah. Just trying to avoid frizzy hair on my wedding day, you know? I came here because I couldn’t find you, and so I phoned “the spectator” office, and they said you were here, covering a story.

Abigail: I see.

Gwen: And the reason I looked surprised is because I didn’t know that ava had been arrested.

Abigail: She has, yeah. She’s been charged with planting the evidence against rafe.

Gwen: And these charges– they don’t have anything to do with what happened to you?

Abigail: No, no, and like I said, you know, she just– she won’t give me the name of the person who helped her do it.

Gwen: I bet it was that pilot. I think perhaps she’s afraid of him.

Abigail: Maybe. Yeah.

Gwen: Right, well, if you’re finished here, shall we go? Because xander’s gone to pick up jack, dad, at the airport. And, well, I know he would love to see you. I think he’d be rather pleased to know that you’re standing up with me. Are you ready?

Abigail: Yes. My phone is vibrating. Hang on. Let’s see. Oh, it’s the office. They’re wanting an update. Do you know what? Can I just–I’ll just catch you at the house, and I’m not gonna be long, I promise.

Gwen: Yeah, of course.

Abigail: Okay. Bye.

Gwen: Bye.

Abigail: Hi, yeah, I’m just down here at the squad room. I just got done interviewing ava vitali.

[Uneasy music]

Ava: So, did you convince the da to give me a deal? Because that is the only way I’m giving you the dirt on your sister.

Craig: Okay, whatever it is, whatever you did, just tell me, all right? Tell me. You’re scaring me. What is it?

Leo: It’s about the guy that gwen is gonna marry.

Craig: What about him?

Leo: His name is xander cook, and I sort of kind of–

Craig: Sort of kind of what?

Leo: Tried to get him to go to bed with me.

Jac: Craig wesley is getting married?

Jennifer: He left nancy…

Both: For a man?

Xander: Yeah. A guy named leo stark.

Jennifer: What? The same leo stark that caused so many problems for will and sonny?

Xander: Yeah, that’s the guy.

Jack: And now craig is getting married to him?

Xander: Yeah, I guess craig had been in the closet his whole life, and now he’s making up for lost time.

Jennifer: No, that’s just poor judgment.

Xander: I wouldn’t know. I’ve never even laid eyes on craig.

Jack: And now you’re going to have a double wedding with the man?

Xander: Because leo and gwen–it turns out, they’re old friends.

Jack: Really?

Jennifer: I mean, I was never crazy about craig, the way he stole my brother’s job, but I mean, nancy worshiped him. She must be devastated by all this.

Nancy: I don’t know why I let you talk me into this, mommy. Look, it is one thing to like a guy’s picture, but it’s another thing to meet him face to face. Okay, I’ll try to believe that. Okay, I will believe that. And, yes, I will repeat after you. I am a great catch. I am charming. I am adorable. And the man I’m about to meet is damn lucky that he swiped right on me. Okay, I’m going in right now to face the… music.

[Lilting jazz music]

Clyde: Nancy?

[Soft music]

Clyde: Hi, I’m clyde. Clyde weston.

Nancy: I’m nancy, nancy miller.

Clyde: Are you sure?

Nancy: I’m sorry. I’m just a little nervous.

Clyde: Well, some of us hide it better than others. Perhaps we should sit down before our waitress runs us over with a big bowl of chowder?

Nancy: Oh, we can’t have that.

Clyde: Right.

Nancy: Oh, thank you.

Clyde: You’re welcome. Well… your picture on the website.

Nancy: What about it?

Clyde: You’re much prettier in person.

Nancy: Thank you. Your picture of you was very handsome, and your picture didn’t lie.

Clyde: Well, thank you. Guess we’re off to a pretty good start here, aren’t we?

Nancy: Oh, I hope so. This is the first time I’ve been on a date in a really long time.

Clyde: Yeah, your profile said that you’re recently back on the market. So am I.

Nancy: I’m divorced. And what’s your excuse?

Clyde: I just got out of prison.

Brady: Look, chloe, I don’t mean to sound cynical, especially for your sake or your dad’s, but the idea that leo is actually in love with craig– I don’t buy it. I don’t think a guy like leo changes his spots.

Chloe: Well, I’m cynical about leo as well, but if he is the gold digger that we think he is, then why did he sign that prenup? Unless he, what, plans on staying married to my father long enough to spend all of his money?

Brady: That’s a possibility. I suppose.

Chloe: I don’t know. Bottom line is, we thought of everything, and nothing worked. It always seems like leo’s one step ahead. I don’t know. I guess leo stark’s going to be my step-daddy, and there’s nothing I can do about it.

Brady: Actually…

Chloe: Actually what?

Brady: Maybe there is.

Craig: So you’re saying you cheated on me?

Leo: Oh, god, no. No, I would never do that. Didn’t I make that clear the night you caught me in bed with chad?

Craig: Yeah, yeah, but you just said that there’s–

Leo: This was years ago, long before I met you. I will admit, I was a bit of a player back then.

Craig: Mm-hmm. What happened?

Leo: Nothing. Xander’s straight.

Craig: But you wanted something to happen?

Leo: Craig. Trust me, when you meet this tall, dark, and handsome scotsman, you will understand why I wanted to get under his kilt.

Jennifer: Are the two of you going to be wearing kilts tonight?

Xander: Oh, I decided to spare jack that. No, I got tuxes for us.

Jack: Oh, my bony kneecaps thank you.

Xander: Actually, speaking of, we should get going. We need to try the monkey suits on.

Jack: Right!

Gwen: My goodness, you’re here! Hi. You’re here. I’m so happy you’re gonna be here for the wedding. Oh.

Jack: Oh, I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.

Gwen: Oh. You know, actually, I was wondering. Would you maybe walk down the aisle and give me away?

Jack: Give you away? I feel like I just got you. Yes, I would be honored to give you away, yes.

Gwen: Oh.

Xander: And when it’s all over, you’ll be my father-in-law. Like the sound of that.

Jack: So do I.

Gwen: Everything is so perfect.

Abigail: Guess who showed up when I was out in the squad room. Gwen.

Ava: How’d that go?

Abigail: Well, I didn’t give you up, if that’s what you’re asking. I told her you wouldn’t tell me who helped you kidnap me.

Ava: Well, that was a good move, because she was probably on her way in here to talk me into keeping my mouth shut.

Abigail: Well, she didn’t expect to see me, I know that.

Ava: So what kept you from telling gwen that I ratted her out?

Abigail: I’m not tipping her off until you give me the whole story.

Ava: That depends on what the da said.

Abigail: She’s interested. But she needs more information.

Ava: Okay. Tell her to come talk to me.

Abigail: I have a better idea. You tell me the story, and I go back to her.

Ava: I already told you gwen knocked you out. What more do you need?

Abigail: You made it very clear that gwen has done worse than that, a lot worse. I want the details.

Ava: Are you certain that the da’s willing to make a deal?

Abigail: Absolutely.

Ava: Great. Then you get me that deal, and then I will give you whatever you need to bury your sister.

Jack: It’s good to see the two of you looking so happy.

Gwen: Yeah, we are, aren’t we?

Xander: Definitely. But we should go get those tuxes fitted. I don’t want to be late for my own wedding.

Jack: Right, right, right.

Gwen: So, you know the next time that I see you–

Xander: I’ll be making an honest woman of you.

Gwen: Yeah, we’ll see about that.

Jennifer: Have fun!

[Soft music]

Gwen: Hey. I’m very happy that you’re gonna be at the wedding tonight.

Jennifer: Yes, I am too. I’m very happy that we have some time alone. There’s something I wanna say to you.

You never know

what opportunities

Clyde: Me doing time, being an ex-con, is that a deal breaker for you? Because if it is, I certainly understand. I see.

Nancy: No, no. You just took me aback, clyde. It’s not a deal breaker.

Clyde: Are you sure?

Nancy: You know, for more than 30 years, I thought that I was married to the perfect man. But he cheated on me. I knew that there was something wrong between us, but, well, I kept asking him, and he kept lying to me. I just met you, and you have been honest and open with me. And I respect that.

Brady: So do you remember yesterday, when we overheard leo talking to someone on the phone named jackie?

Chloe: Yeah.

Brady: Well, sonny seems to think that might be jackie cox. Now, this is a crony of leo’S. Sonny’s pretty sure that the two of them were in cahoots during that peacock scam last year. So if leo is actually trying to scam your father, this jackie cox might know about it, even be in on it.

Chloe: How do we find this jackie?

Brady: Sonny and chad are actually on their way to new york right now to try to track her down.

Chloe: Well, my dad’s wedding is in a couple hours, and this seems like a long shot.

Brady: Chloe, it may be the only shot we have.

Leo: I don’t want there to be any secrets between us. So I thought I’d better tell you you’d be sharing your wedding with a man I lusted after. You mad?

Craig: No. I appreciate you being honest with me.

Leo: Oh, craig. Nobody has ever cared for me the way you do.

Craig: It’s because you make me happy. I love you.

Leo: Maybe we do have time for a shower.

[Knocking at door]

Craig: Oh, boy.

Leo: Oh, well, if it isn’t the groom-to-be.

Xander: Hi, leo. Can we come in?

Leo: Why not?

Craig: Jack deveraux.

Jack: Hello, craig.

Leo: You two know each other?

Craig: Mm-hmm. Yes, we do. What are you doing here?

Xander: Well, jack’s gwen’s dad. He’s also my best man.

Craig: Oh. Well, I didn’t know that.

Jack: I thought as much. That’s why I suggested to xander that the four of us should have a friendly drink together before the wedding.

Xander: It’s a single malt, almost as old as I am. Jack’s treat.

Craig: So you’re xander cook. Leo and i were just talking about you.

Gwen: Look, before you say anything, I know I’m not your favorite person, and for good reason. When I came to salem, I was terribly unhappy, and I took that all out on you and your family, and especially abigail.

Jennifer: Yes, you did.

Gwen: So I wanted to say is that abigail has managed to forgive me. It means the absolute world to me. Because with her forgiveness and xander’s love, I’ve stopped becoming that person who did all those horrible things. So, really, what I’m trying to say for myself here is, I was very angry and spiteful because I just thought that nobody was ever gonna love me. But now I have jack, and I have xander. And for the first time, I feel like I have a family of my own. Sorry, so what is it that you wanted to say?

Jennifer: You know, you’ve lived in this house. You see pictures of family everywhere. So you probably figured that family means everything to me, gwen. And everything to my husband. So what I wanted to say is, jack is really proud of the person that you’ve become, and so am I.

Gwen: Oh.

Jennifer: [Laughs]

[Tender music]

It’s okay.

My asthma felt anything but normal.

Gwen: Thank you, jennifer.

Abigail: Mom.

Jennifer: Whoa!

Abigail: I didn’t know you were coming.

Jennifer: Well, I had to see you for myself. Oh, my goodness. Now I know that you’re really okay.

Abigail: Yeah, I’m fine. I’m happy you’re here.

Jennifer: And you’re going to be gwen’s matron of honor?

Abigail: Yes, I am.

Gwen: I know, I can’t believe it. I mean, I’m actually getting married here in a little while. I need to get dressed. I need to get ready.

Jennifer: Yes.

Abigail: Do you need help getting dressed?

Gwen: No, I don’t think so, but if I do, I will let you know. Thank you.

[Moody music]

Jennifer: Hey. What’s wrong?

Abigail: I just learned some very interesting intel about our bride-to-be.

Chloe: So, what did you say to chad and sonny?

Brady: Told them that leo signed the prenup and that now it’s basically all up to them.

Chloe: Well, did they have any luck finding this jackie person?

Brady: Hopefully, we’ll find out soon.

Chloe: Well, not soon enough to stop this wedding. Ugh. Ugh.

Brady: What?

Chloe: It means I have to go get ready for it. Feel like I’m going to a funeral. I should just get dressed in all black since I am ghoul girl.

Brady: Hey, you do realize that you’re not going to be doing this alone.

Chloe: What, are you ready to go public?

Brady: Yeah. Like I told you back in the good old days, I want the whole world to know that you are my girl.

[Tender music]

Xander: Oh, yes. Should we have another?

Leo: Might want to slow down there, big guy. Don’t want to disappoint the missus tonight.

Xander: I appreciate your concern, leo, but that’s not going to be a problem.

Leo: Lucky her.

Craig: So, jack, you’ve heard about me and nancy, yes?

Jack: Yeah, yeah. Yeah. How’s she holding up?

Craig: Well, she’s in a great deal of pain, and I feel terrible about that, but I just couldn’t lie to her anymore. Let alone myself. Anyway, she’s an amazing lady, and I pray that she finds the right man who she can spend this next chapter of her life with.

Clyde: Hard enough to have your husband tell you he’s leaving you, but for another man?

Nancy: The same man that he is marrying today. He wants us to be civilized, and he invited me to the wedding.

Clyde: Guy’s got some nerve.

Nancy: I might go. That’s kind of one of the reasons I got on the dating site. I just didn’t like the thought of showing up there alone.

Clyde: Nancy, are you asking me to escort you to that wedding?

It’s started. Somewhere between a cuddle

Nancy: Do you feel used?

Clyde: No. To be honest, the day I walked out of prison, the only clothes I had were the clothes that I walked in with, but I’m sure I could scare something up.

Nancy: Really?

Clyde: Yeah, but I don’t think you really want me to take you tonight.

Nancy: It is crazy, right? I’m asking you to be my plus-one at the wedding of my ex-husband and his boyfriend. Why don’t think you should go with me? Because you were in prison?

Clyde: Well, you said it didn’t matter to you, so why I would care what other people think?

Nancy: Then why did you say you shouldn’t go with me?

Clyde: Because I think you’re worried about people seeing you there alone. I think you’re afraid that people will feel sorry for you. And I’d tell you, that just ain’t gonna happen.

Nancy: How do you know?

Clyde: Nancy miller, you go to that wedding and hold your pretty little head up high, just like you’ve been doing ever since we sat down to talk, and people there will see exactly what I see.

Nancy: And what’s that?

Clyde: A beautiful, strong woman who doesn’t need a man to make herself complete.

Chloe: As much as I would love for you to go with me to this wedding–

Brady: What? What?

Chloe: Are you sure you’re ready for rachel to find out about us?

Brady: I haven’t told her yet, but do you how she feels about you?

Chloe: Yeah, she likes me because I’m your friend.

Brady: No, that’s not true. It’s not the only reason.

Chloe: Well, she might not like me if I’m your girlfriend.

Brady: Chloe, I have talked to her about kristen and me. She knows that we will always love her, but she knows that mommy and daddy will never be a couple again.

Chloe: Poor baby.

Brady: Yeah, it’s sad, but… she also doesn’t want her daddy to be lonely. She did tell me that. And when we’re together, she sees how happy that makes me. So I think that she would think that that was a good thing.

Chloe: Are you sure?

Brady: I am.

Chloe: Oh, brady.

[Soft music]

Craig: I’d like to propose a toast. To leo, the man who makes my heart sing and who I’ll soon be lucky enough to call my husband.

Leo: To the bravest man I know, my husband-to-be, who took on all the people he loves because he loves me.

Xander: To my bonny bride. She’s everything that I love in a woman. She’s beautiful, she’s bright, and she can drink you lot under the table.

Jack: To my good friend, xander, who stood up for my daughter, stood behind her, and showed me finally how to see what he saw in her: A young woman who just wants to be loved. And now she is, by both of us. To love.

Craig: Hear, hear!

Xander: To love.

Jennifer: Gwen is the one that knocked you unconscious? She is the reason that you were kidnapped?

Abigail: Yes. Yes, but she doesn’t know that I know that. So we– we got to keep our voices down.

Jennifer: How can I keep my voice down? I just told her how proud I was of her. Do you know how devastated your father is going to be by all of this?

Abigail: I’m sure he is.

Jennifer: Why did she do this to you?

Abigail: I think I know. I don’t want to talk about it until I know for sure that I’m right.

Jennifer: Why haven’t you confronted her about this?

Abigail: Ava told me there’s so much more to know about gwen. I want it all. And ava’s forcing me to broker a plea deal for her with the da. Otherwise, she won’t talk.

Jennifer: Does she have any idea that you are on to all of this?

Abigail: She tracked me down at the police station today. I think it’s because she doesn’t want me talking to ava.

Jennifer: What did you do?

Abigail: I told her that she wouldn’t tell me who her accomplice was.

Jennifer: And she believed you?

Abigail: Yeah. And that’s the way that I want it. I can’t have her going down there and telling ava not to talk.

Jennifer: So this whole miraculous change in her character has just been an act this whole time?

Abigail: I think so. And it scares me, you know, because she’s already done so much to our family. What if she’s planning something else?

Jennifer: Abigail, you can’t let her do anything else to you. Please.

Abigail: Trust me, I’m gonna protect myself. But I can’t do that unless I know the whole truth.

Gwen: The whole truth about what?

[Dramatic music]

To be a thriver with metastatic breast cancer means…

Abigail: Oh, mom and i were just talking shop. I wanted her advice on how to handle a source because I’m not sure he’s being truthful.

Gwen: Oh, right. I’m sorry if I’m interrupting.

Abigail: No, you’re not. I’m your matron of honor, and I’m at your disposal.

Gwen: Well, it was just the dress I bought, I can’t quite do the zipper myself.

Abigail: Oh, yeah, okay, well, let’s go get you into it.

Gwen: Right. Okay.

[Moody music]

Nancy: Clyde, let me ask you something. Are you turning me down about going to the wedding tonight because you’re just not interested? I mean, I’m a big girl, in more ways than one. You don’t have to let me down easy.

Clyde: Nancy, life’s too short to fool around. If I wasn’t interested in you, I wouldn’t waste your time or mine.

Nancy: I already like you.

Clyde: I like you too, nancy. Which is another reason for me to stay away from that wedding.

Nancy: I’m sorry. I don’t know what you mean.

Clyde: On our first date, I don’t want to deal with a bunch of other people. I want you all to myself.

Craig: I hate to question your taste, but xander is not all that.

Leo: Excuse me?

Craig: I’ll be standing near him at the wedding tonight, but I only have eyes for you.

[Knock at door] Oh, my god, what now?

Xander: Oh, hey, sorry, I just jumped in the shower, and I stupidly didn’t check before, but I don’t have any of those little shampoo bottles. You have any extra?

Craig: Uh, the maid, I think left a few this morning–

Leo: I’ll get them.

Craig: So, married.

Xander: You nervous?

Craig: I’m–yeah, no.

Xander: Oh, thanks so much, mate. Cheers. I’ll see you guys at the wedding.

Craig: I take that back. In a towel, he is–

Leo: All that.

Craig: Definitely.

Chloe: So we are going to this wedding together.

Brady: Yeah, we are.

Chloe: So we’re officially a thing?

Brady: Yeah. Couldn’t be happier about it.

Chloe: Okay, well, I am, too, but I really should go get ready for this thing.

Brady: Yeah, you know what? Maybe you should just stay, and maybe we could go to my room. The wedding isn’t for many hours.

Chloe: Oh, you’re right, it isn’T.

[Cell phone beeps]

Brady: God, really? It’s from sonny. He and chad have met with jackie cox. They have something on leo.

Bridget: This is good.

Ridge: Yeah?

Bridget: Very, very good. I am pleased with the progress you’re making, steffy.

Steffy: Mm. Can… I go home?

Bridget: Let’s not get ahead of ourselves right now. Not quite yet, okay, honey?

Ridge: Come here a second. Do you think I could try again? You know, trying to find out again, what happened in the alley, jog her memory a little bit–

Bridget: Ridge, just don’t get disappointed if she doesn’t have answers.

Ridge: I’m not– okay, hey, baby, you awake?

Steffy: Mm.

Ridge: I just want to try one more time, see if– maybe you remember what happened that night. Who did this to you?

Deacon: You were really going to jump?

Sheila: Yes.

Deacon: I just had no idea that you were that depressed.

Sheila: Am that depressed, deacon, I am. I would’ve done it. I just want the pain to go away I have never felt so low and worthless.

Deacon: And then taylor showed up.

Sheila: Yeah. She tried to stop me.

Taylor: Sheila!

Sheila: I was gonna do it anyway.

Taylor: Don’t do it.

Sheila: And she made a move toward me, and she slipped. She saved my life.

Taylor: Don’t drop me! [ Sobbing ] Thank you!

Sheila: And I saved hers.

Taylor: Have the kids been asking questions?

Hope: Uh, well, douglas did ask how long kelly and hayes are going to be there.

Liam: Oh, man.

Hope: Yeah.

Taylor: Well, he’s a very smart kid. I’m sure he’ll figure out something’s going on soon.

Liam: Yeah, probably. I ju– I’m grateful that steffy’s doing better, because at least it’s going to make that very difficult conversation we have to have with them a little bit easier. But– hey.

Brooke: Hi! I heard that steffy was awake.

Taylor: She is.

Brooke: She is? That’s wonderful. You must be so relieved.

Taylor: I am.

Brooke: So where’s ridge?

Carter: Uh, quinn, um, what can I do for you?

Quinn: Well, um, I thought it was time to give this back to you. Key to your loft. I figured enough time has passed. Maybe there was another someone special you might want to give it to. But… I never would have thought… you and paris. It’s true? You’re involved with paris because I saw her face when she walked out right now. That’s why she and zende aren’t engaged. [ Sighing ] Carter, what have you gotten yourself into?

Brooke: So, is ridge here?

Taylor: He is, yes. He’s in with steffy right now.

Brooke: Oh, okay. Yeah. So I probably shouldn’t interrupt.

Taylor: Yeah, probably.

Brooke: Has steffy said anything so far? Does she know who did this to her and finn?

Deacon: Hey. I don’t need to worry about you, do I? I– I mean, right now. Sheila, I know–

Sheila: No you have no idea.

Deacon: Okay, fair enough. You’re right. I don’T.

Sheila: Finn is dead. And my grandson is gonna grow up without his father.

Deacon: And maybe without a mother. Which is all the reason why you need to stay in this world. You gotta be here for– for hayes– I– sheila, you gotta be here for hayes if steffy doesn’t pull through.

Sheila: She’s doing better. Uh, she’s not out of the woods yet, but– but she’s awake.

Deacon: Hey! That’s great– that– that’s good news, right?

Steffy: It’s fuzzy how– I don’t remember being shot at. I don’T.

Bridget: Honey, maybe if you concentrate on why you were there in the first place?

Ridge: Yeah. Why– why were you in the alley with finn? You guys going out for a drink? Maybe? What were you doing?

Bridget: It’s okay, steffy, if you need to rest.

Steffy: No. I– I want to help.

Ridge: You are, you are helping, just try to see if– you remember a face, maybe? Was it a man or a woman? Tall, short? Anything? Who shot you, baby? Hi, I’m karen.

Quinn: So this thing between you and paris, this has been going on since new year’s eve?

Carter: It was a mistake, and it never should have happened. So it was an attraction we’re going to have to fight.

[ Keys jangling ] What?

Quinn: Trying to fight an attraction to you. That’s something I know a little bit about.

Taylor: Steffy doesn’t remember anything about the shooting. Her, finn.

Brooke: Oh, no.

Liam: But bridget did say that, um, that’s relatively normal, right, taylor? Like, we shouldn’t be too concerned about it.

Taylor: Well, I mean, it’s not ideal. But I– I don’t think we should worry. It’s understandable that steffy would suppress this kind of trauma.

Hope: Yeah, but suppress for how long?

Taylor: I don’t know. Right now, steffy is– she’s and out of consciousness. She has to be reminded where she is and what happened. [ Sighing ] But you know what? She’s– she’s made so much progress already. She’s– she’s awake. She’s getting better by the hour. Hopefully, she’ll be able to connect the dots and find out who did this.

Deacon: I get that steffy hasn’t exactly treated you with kindness since you came back. But I can’t believe that you would wish her dead.

Sheila: What I wish is that I could go back in time. Before they got shot and do somethin– just do something to stop it.

Deacon: I’m so sorry, sheila.

Sheila: So am I. I just wish that I could tell finn that. I could see him just one more time. Tell him how much I love him and how sorry I am. He’s gone. And I’m– I’m never gonna get to see him again. I’ll never get to see him again. [ Sobbing ]

Steffy: I want to remember. [ Wincing ]

Bridget: I think she’s had enough.

Steffy: I– I want to remember, but I can’t–

Ridge: It’s okay. It’s okay.

Steffy: I can’T.

Ridge: It’s okay. Rest. Just close your eyes and get some rest. It’s okay. What– I’m sorry. I’m just trying to find out who did this to her.

Bridget: I know, ridge, I know. And it will happen.

Ridge: It will happen. I promise you.

Ridge: We’ll find whoever did this. I know there’s more heartache coming your way, but– I’m here. I’m right here.

Brooke: Has anybody told her, about finn?

Liam: No. I mean, I– I don’t- I don’t think so, but, uh– it’s just– I mean that conversation, it’s going to be impossible. How do we even– she lost her husband, you know.

Hope: Hi, amelia said that the kids are fine. And if we wanted to, she can bring them by the hospital later.

Liam: Oh, excellent. That’s really cool. I would, I– I would like to stay a little bit longer, at least until I can have a– a proper conversation with steffy. Um, actually, maybe I’m going to see if I can go do that now. Do you mind?

Hope: No.

Liam: All right. I love you.

Taylor: You happy with the numbers?

Bridget: Quite happy. You saw the follow up ct scan?

Taylor: Yeah.

Bridget: This is exactly where I would expect steffy to be.

Taylor: What about her memory?

Bridget: Taylor. You, of all people, know we don’t worry about that yet.

Taylor: Yeah, as a doctor. Sure. I’ve been trying to stay positive around my family. Not let them know what I’m feeling. But as a mother, I’m freaking out, bridget.

Bridget: Just remember, she regained consciousness.

Taylor: Yeah, hm.

Bridget: That was our biggest hurdle. Taylor, look at me. You got to hang in there, okay?

Taylor: Yes. Thank you. I’m– I’m trying. I’m trying.

Bridget: Don’t forget, it may not be such a bad thing that she doesn’t recall everything, just for the time being.

[ Sighing ]

Taylor: I can’t imagine what it’s going to be like for her to have to recall that horrific night. To experience those emotions again, and all of that but I know that it’s important, so she can tell us who did this, so we can put them behind bars.

Bridget: Well, it was a good sign that she woke up and knows who she is, who we are. We just need to give her some time to remember the events of that night.

Taylor: But when is she going to remember? When is she gonna be able to tell us what happened?

Quinn: Who knew paris and I would have so much in common. I should go and find her. Give her some advice–

Carter: No, no, no. Please don’T. Don’t do that.

Quinn: What? Professor quinn, how to get over carter walton 101.

Carter: Why is this funny? Why– why are you joking right now?

[ Chuckling ]

Quinn: Are you sure things are really over?

Carter: Yes. Yes. Falling for a woman involved with another man? Fool me once, right?

Quinn: Are you all right?

Carter: Can I tell you the truth?

Quinn: Always.

Carter: I haven’t been all right since you went back to eric. Been a bit of a mess, very confused, and– instead of moving on with a woman who’s available, what do I do? I hook up with zende’s girlfriend, he’s one of my best friends, and then– I let something happen with the woman I knew I couldn’t have. A relationship I knew would go nowhere.

Quinn: Why would you do that to yourself?

Carter: Because I couldn’t go after a woman with actual potential. Couldn’t risk starting something, not when…

Quinn: Not when what?

Carter: Not when a part of me is… still wanting… wishing. I miss you, quinn. I miss you.

Quinn: I miss you, too.

Taylor: It’s so upsetting, knowing that whoever did this is just walking around free.

Bridget: I know. I understand. I really, really do understand your frustration. But you have got to have some patience. You know, we just have to hope that steffy will be able to remember everything.

Taylor: You don’t really believe that she won’t, do you? See, I–I’ve been trying to stay strong for my family. Not wanting them to see that there is– there’s a part of me that is afraid that she’s not going to remember anything. You think the same thing too, don’t you? You think it’s possible& steffy might not remember what happened that night?

Brooke: Must be a little strange for you. Your husband has barely left the hospital since he found out, practically holding vigil at his ex-wife’s bedside.

Hope: Uh mom, steffy is very important to liam.

Brooke: Yes, they share a history.

Hope: And they share a child. So trust me, liam is exactly where he should be.

Brooke: Okay. What about you?

Hope: What about me?

Brooke: Uh, you and liam are a couple. Why didn’t you go in there with him?

Hope: Because steffy is still in a fragile state. She experienced something very traumatic, and I don’t want to overwhelm her. And besides, liam should have alone time with her. Mom, where is all this coming from?

Hope: I just thought you should have gone in there with him, that’s all. I mean, why wouldn’t you go in there? Liam is your husband.

Hope: I know that, mom. I know. And you don’t have to worry because nothing is going to change that.

[ Groaning ]

Ridge: Hey.

Steffy: Dad?

Ridge: You’re all right? You’re in pain?

Steffy: A little bit. Where am I? What happened?

Ridge: Wait, wait, you’re in the hospital, we talked about this. You– everything’s fine.

Steffy: Oh. Yeah, you– you want me to remember.

Ridge: Don’t worry about that.

Steffy: Yeah.

Ridge: Just rest, don’t worry.

Liam: Hey. Room for one more?

Ridge: Sure.

Liam: I, uh– I heard a rumor somebody is up and talking.

Steffy: Liam! Oh, liam.

Liam: Hey! Hey. Oh, my god. Oh, my god. There you are. Oh, boy. Look at you. Look at your smile. You really came back to us, didn’t you? Do you have any idea how worried I was about you? What I would have done if you had left us?

Steffy: I would never leave you. I would never, ever, ever leave you. Thank god you’re here. Thank god.

Liam: Honey, of course I’m here. I’m here.

Steffy: I needed you. Oh, I needed you. I needed you. I needed my sweet husband. Oh, I needed you. My sweet husband. [ Steffy sobbing ] [ Sobbing ]

Review of “Aquaman: King of Atlantis”

Posted on April 20, 2022August 11, 2025 by TvMegasite Admin

DVD Review!

“Aquaman: King of Atlantis ” Review by Suzanne 4/20/22

This is a good miniseries for kids. As someone who grew up reading comics, I didn’t enjoy it. It’s too silly. It’s a kids’ cartoon. Also, I’m not a huge fan of this style of animation. It’s definitely a good series for kids or teens. The voice actors do a good job, and the animation has a lot of wonderful detail. We’ve never really seen this much of the world of Atlantis before. We only saw a little bit of it in the “Aquaman” movie.

I wish they would do more of the Aquaman animated movies, like “Justice League: Throne of Atlantis.” That was a good one. They need to give Aquaman his own animated movie, though. I know that many people like to make fun of the character, but growing up, I never had any problem with him or thought that he was comical. Jokes aside, he can do a lot more than “talk to fish!” He has that trident (just as powerful as Thor’s hammer, if you ask me), and he’s very strong, fast and smart – almost as much as Superman. He can breathe in multiple environments and has super hearing as well as SONAR abilities. He’s certainly not the boob portrayed in this cartoon.

The DVD does not come with any extras or features, unfortunately. I’m sure the kids won’t care. They’ll probably watch it on HBOMAX if their parents can afford it. Otherwise, the DVD is a great alternative.

AQUAMAN: KING OF ATLANTIS

EPIC MINI-SERIES COMES TO DIGITAL & DVD

AS A FULL-LENGTH ANIMATED MOVIE ON APRIL 26, 2022

BURBANK, CA (March 24, 2022) – Monstrous creatures, devious foes and incredible underwater adventures populate Aquaman: King of Atlantis, an action-packed mini-series now coming to Digital and DVD (USA $14.99 SRP; Canada $19.99 SRP) as a feature-length animated film on April 26, 2022 courtesy of Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.

Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, the mini-series premiered on HBO Max on October 14 to rave reviews from both critics and fans alike. James Wan (Aquaman) served as executive producer through his Atomic Monster production company on this playful reimagining of the iconic DC Super Hero and tells an original tale about Aquaman’s first adventures as King of Atlantis.

Aquaman: King of Atlantis begins with Aquaman starting his first day on the job as king of Atlantis – and he’s got a lot of catching up to do. Luckily, he has his two royal advisors to back him up: the scholar Vulko, and Mera, the water controlling warrior princess. Between dealing with unscrupulous surface dwellers, elder evils from beyond time and his own half-brother who wants to overthrow him, Aquaman must rise to the challenge and prove to his subjects – and to himself – that he’s the true heir to the throne, and holder of the trident!

Cooper Andrews (The Walking Dead, Shazam!) leads the cast of Aquaman: King of Atlantis as the title character, and he’s joined by Gillian Jacobs (Community, Invincible, Injustice) as Mera, Thomas Lennon (Supergirl, Reno 911!) as Vulko, Dana Snyder (Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Justice League Action) as Ocean Master, Andrew Morgado (Supergirl, Archer) as Mortikov, Kevin Michael Richardson (The Simpsons, American Dad!) as the Royal Announcer, Flula Borg (The Suicide Squad, Pitch Perfect 2) as Mantis, and Kimberly Brooks (DC Super Hero Girls, Batwheels) as Hammer. Also providing voices is Chris Jai Alex, Trevor Devall, Armen Taylor, Kaitlyn Robrock, Regi Davis, Ludi Lin, Robbie Daymond, Erica Lindbeck, Laila Berzins and Erica Ash.

Victor Courtright (ThunderCats Roar!) and Marly Halpern-Graser (Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) served as showrunners and co-executive producers. Courtright and Marly Halpern-Graser conceived the story for the mini-series/film, and Halpern-Graser, Bryan Condon (Right Now Kapow) and Laura Sreebny (She-Ra and the Princesses of Power) co-wrote the teleplay. The mini-series was executive produced by James Wan (Aquaman), Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear (Annabelle Comes Home), Rob Hackett (Swamp Thing), and Sam Register (Teen Titans Go!). Keith Pakiz (ThunderCats Roar) served as director on all three episodes of the mini-series.

Adam: If they won’t budge on the price, then walk away. Right, right, right. Well, get on it.

Victor: Where do things stand with locke?

Adam: [ Exhales sharply ] Our conversation couldn’t have gone better. He agreed to surrender control of the company.

Victor: I’ll be damned. Hmm. What about victoria?

Adam: He agreed to the annulment and that he’s gonna walk away from newman/locke. He is actually on his way over here right now to sign the agreement.

Victor: Well, so the end is in sight.

Adam: Uh-huh. Money talks. Locke will soon be out of our lives, out of the company and victoria’s life, so it’s the best possible outcome.

Victor: I still don’t like the way you handled this whole thing. It was very impulsive. Could have backfired.

Adam: It worked, didn’t it? I achieved the objective.

Victor: You will have achieved the objective once he signs.

Adam: It was the cleanest, most straight-forward way to tackle the problem. No tricks, no games — it was just cold, hard cash in exchange to get this jerk to take a hike.

Victor: Hmm. So you want me to believe that you did this for the good of the family, just to show your loyalty, right?

Adam: That’s exactly why i did it.

Victor: I know why you did it. You wanted to prove that you were smarter and more capable than your sister.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] You’re really doing this?

Ashland: Adam is waiting for me in his office right now to sign the paperwork.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] It’s just — you know, it’s a little overwhelming how quickly it all went down.

Ashland: Yeah. Well, adam and your father gave me 500 million reasons to walk away. From our combined company, from our “official” marriage. As long as I have your assurance that you’re on board with me.

Victoria: Ashland, I told you —

Ashland: Tell me again. I need to know if you’re really willing and ready to walk away from everything you have here, from your family, from this company, from your home here in genoa city. And build a new future with me someplace far away.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] The farther away, the better, as far as I’m concerned. After everything that has happened, you know, I could just — I could really use a fresh start.

Ashland: Well, that brings me to the hardest question of all. What about your children?

Jack: That is wonderful news. No, absolutely. If anything changes, you give me a call. I love you too, son. Bye. That was kyle. Summer can’t get away from marchetti, but kyle managed to clear his schedule and he and harrison will be flying in next week.

Traci: So the clock is ticking.

Jack: Yeah, as excited as i am about their visit, I am also dreading what comes with it.

Traci: [ Sighs ] Diane and all of her endless drama.

Jack: I get to sit with my son and blind-side him with the news that his mother is alive.

[ Knock on door ]

Phyllis: Please don’t make me play this game with you, “taylor.” Let me in. I have a master key. Please don’t make me use it.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

[ Exhales sharply ] Phyllis, wow, what a surprise.

Phyllis: Stop. Seriously? You didn’t think I was gonna figure out your alias when you checked in to my hotel? Hi, I’m karen.

Ashland: It’s because I love you so much that I’m asking you this question now. If you’re really ready to cut ties with everyone…I don’t want you to have any regrets. We both have to be sure about what that means. For instance, I would love to take a more active role in harrison’s life, but I know the newmans and the abbotts would join forces to keep me from doing that in the same way you need to think about billy.

Victoria: What about billy?

Ashland: It’s clear, isn’t it? He’s gonna hate the fact that you’re running away with me. And I’m pretty sure he’s gonna try to keep you from his kids.

Victoria: You know, I have been thinking about the impact that this would have on the children, and I actually think that I can — I can — I can reason with billy. I mean [Sighs] He’s not going to keep johnny and katie away from their mother.

Ashland: Are you sure about that?

Victoria: When it comes to determining what is best for the kids, I know that billy usually does the right thing. And depending on where we end up living, we’ll just have to come up with some kind of an arrangement.

Ashland: I’m not sure that’s going to be possible.

Victoria: Why would you say it like that?

Ashland: Because your ex can be vindictive. He’s proved it over and over again.

Victoria: Oh. I know, but…billy is a totally different person now. As ironic as that sounds, as much as he’ll hate to see me doing this with you, I think he’ll take great satisfaction in me finally walking away from my father. He despises him more than anyone, even adam. You’re not even a close third when it comes to the two.

Ashland: Are you really willing to take that risk?

Traci: Jack, I am so sorry you’ve been put in this position.

Jack: Oh, thanks. So am I.

Traci: But you’re doing the right thing. Kyle has to know the truth, and better it come from you where you can at least sort of prepare him. Although, god, how do you prepare a kid to learn that his mother skipped town to save her own skin and let him and everybody else believe she was dead?

Jack: Yeah, I don’t think we can count on diane to show much finesse. She’s been so callous about kyle’s emotions ever since her “death.”

Traci: Okay, I’ve been thinking a lot about the timing on this, jack. Why reveal herself now?

Jack: Oh, there is a reason, rest assured. Diane has a plan. And I am going to make it my life’s mission to figure out exactly what it is.

Diane: Your hotel? My, my, how things do change.

Phyllis: Stop the act. You know this is my hotel. You know that. That’s why you made a beeline for it when you landed.

Diane: You’re right. I won’t insult your intelligence that way. What I mean is it would be a pointless lie since I know very well what you’ve been up to since I’ve been away.

Phyllis: Oh, do you?

Diane: Mm-hmm.

Phyllis: Oh, is that so?

Diane: I’ve followed the lives of a lot of people in genoa city, not just jack and kyle.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness, listen to you. And I’m on the short list. I’m so lucky.

Diane: You’re running with the big dogs now.

[ Chuckles ] Congratulations, phyllis. It’s a beautiful hotel. And you fought hard to make this a success. Your success. You know, I’m really quite impressed given —

Phyllis: Okay, cut. Cut the act.& Alright, did you follow me and jack from la? Is that what you did?

Diane: Don’t be absurd.

Phyllis: Do you have any idea the hell that’s gonna rain down on you if anyone knows you’re here, diane?

Diane: [ Sighs ] I just — I just wanted to be here, prepared, for once jack tells kyle that I’m alive.

Phyllis: Prepare for what? What are you preparing for?

[ Chuckles ] Honestly, how do you see this playing out? For copd,

Diane: I’ve played it out in my head so many times, you know, seeing kyle again, being reunited with my son.

Phyllis: Okay, well, don’t bet on that happening, and don’t get too comfortable here if you know what’s good for you.

Diane: Is that a threat?

Phyllis: No, just advice. Listen, jack’s hoping — I’m betting — that when kyle finds out that you’re actually not dead, he’s not gonna want to have anything to do with you.

Diane: Gee, thanks.

Phyllis: I think you wasted a trip, diane. Sorry. But on the off chance kyle wants to meet with you, I’m gonna have to ask you not to do that in my hotel. I don’t want the fireworks here. Can you just check in to the athletic club, please?

Diane: [ Chuckles ] Are you throwing me out?

Phyllis: Nothing I would like to do more than to throw you out, that’s for sure.

Diane: Oh, then what’s stopping you?

Phyllis: You know what’s stopping me? If I throw you out, then you get to play the victim, and I’m not gonna let you do that this time. You know what I’m gonna do instead? I’m gonna take your money and I’m gonna ignore you, diane.

Diane: [ Scoffs ] Wow. Wow, you really have a knack for this hospitality thing. No — no, really, phyllis, it’s a gift.

Phyllis: If you create any trouble, I’m throwing you out on your butt.

Diane: Fair enough. But you don’t need to worry. I’ll behave.

Phyllis: I hope so.

Diane: Phyllis [Scoffs] I know it’s going to be very hard for you to accept that I’ve changed.

Phyllis: Oh, please, diane. I know you. You haven’t changed. I’m gonna give you a piece of advice. If people in this town that you’re actually alive and that you had the audacity to come back here, it’s not me you should be worried about. Things will get ugly in a real hurry.

Adam: I’m sorry that you think that of me. That I was purely acting out of selfishness.

Victor: Son, you said in so many words that you thought this was victoria’s fault. That she fell for a con man, therefore she should be stripped of her title. In favor of you.

Adam: Do I think that I’m a better leader than victoria? Hell yes. Because it happens to be true. But the approach that I took with ashland, it wasn’t about proving it to you or to anyone else.

Victor: So you weren’t out to impress me.

Adam: Well, to the extent that you were impressed, that pleases me. Yeah, I won’t deny it. I solved a problem that threatened everything that you have built your entire life. But the goal was to get ashland out, and it benefited the whole family. So whatever happens moving forward, I think we’re all better off for it, myself included. I’d say that’s a win all around.

Victor: I remember when you were a little boy on the farm in kansas. I taught you how to play soccer. Look at you now. You do impress me. But you’ve cost me a hell of a lot of money.

Adam: Well, it’s money, um, well spent. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Let’s finalize this. Until we get ashland’s signature on the agreement, um, I don’t want anything to get messed up, since we’re this close to getting rid of that bastard.

Victor: I’m proud of you.

Victoria: Since the moment we got together, billy has been meddling in our lives. He’s been digging into your past, almost to the point of obsession, and bringing gaines to tuscany to stop our wedding.

Ashland: But see, that’s exactly why I think he’s gonna be so hard on you. He will see the two of us choosing to run away together as proof that he was right to oppose our marriage.

Victoria: I actually think that it will be the opposite. Look, you said that you thought billy was still in love with me secretly and that that was his motivation, but you’re so wrong about that. Billy just doesn’t want to see me hurt again the way that he hurt me, and he wants to see me with some peace in my life. The kind of peace that he was never able to give me. I know it’s not gonna be easy for him to admit, but when he looks into my eyes, the way that you’re looking into them right now, he’s gonna see how much i love you. I love you so much, even after everything that’s happened. And…he’s not gonna be able to fight that.

Ashland: [ Chuckles ] So this really is a yes.

Victoria: I’m ready.

Ashland: [ Chuckles ] Okay. Okay, the world is ours. Where do you want to go?

[ Chuckles ]

Victoria: Tuscany.

Ashland: Of course.

Victoria: I mean, we own the palazzo.

Ashland: Yeah.

Victoria: It’s just so magical there. We had so many beautiful memories there.

Ashland: Okay. Tuscany it is.

Victoria: So go on, go take care of things with adam. I’ll be waiting here for you.

Ashland: Okay. And when I get back, we will start our new life together.

If you have medicare

and medicaid,

Diane: Thank you for reminding me how hated I am in this town.

Phyllis: No charge.

Diane: [ Huffs ] For the record, it’s incredibly difficult for me being back here.

Phyllis: Oh, come on, diane, please. When have you cared about what anyone thinks of you? I am actually interested in one thing.

Diane: What?

Phyllis: How’d you survive after all these years? I mean, you took on an alias and invested in therapy apparently. But how’d you pay your bills?

Diane: Well, uh, once I felt steady enough to venture out again, that I was confident my escape plan had worked, that nobody was going to come looking for me…

Jack: I have been doing some investigating into “taylor jenson’s” life in los angeles over the past few years, trying to come up with clues, something that’s gonna lead me to what diane is after.

Traci: And what did you find?

Jack: For starters, she tried to resume her career…

Diane: As an architect. But it was more competitive and difficult in los angeles. I couldn’t draw on the success of diane jenkins.

Phyllis: That’s one of the downfalls of faking your own death.

Diane: Well, my savings started to dwindle, and I was forced to take whatever job i could find. I — I started working in a real-estate office and answered phones, and pretty soon i learned the ropes and I got my realtor’s license.

Phyllis: It’s hard to picture you hustling, like the rest of us mortals. Even if it was in beverly hills.

Diane: It wasn’t as glamorous as one might think.

Phyllis: Oh, was it not?

Diane: No, I didn’t sell mansions to celebrities. It was small, postwar valley homes.

Jack: Taylor jenson had a modestly successful career as a residential real-estate agent. Hardly the life that diane was accustomed to.

Traci: Well, I suppose if you’re technically dead, it’s best to keep a low profile.

Jack: Yeah, when you’re keeping an eye on all the dollars, it kind of wears on someone as grasping and entitled as diane. My biggest worry right now is she’s gonna try to convince kyle to support her.

Traci: Well, that wouldn’t surprise me a bit. But either way, it’s gonna be kyle’s decision.

Diane: I kept my head down and made an honest living, and little by little, year by year, I made a life for myself in california.

Phyllis: Planning and plotting for the day when you could come back to genoa city and explode into our life again. Wreaking havoc on jack and everyone around him.

Diane: Phyllis —

Phyllis: I’m calling it like I see it. And then keemo’s house went on the market after he died, and you made a beeline for it because you found out that the owner was jack’s granddaughter allie, and you took advantage of a young woman grieving the loss of her father and you misrepresented yourself as a lovely woman…just there to hold her hand, right? Capitalizing on her grief and confusion.

Diane: Just stop. That is not how it happened. You’re just twisting everything around.

Phyllis: Am I? Am I really? See, I know who you are, and i don’t trust a word that comes out of your mouth, diane. And nothing you say or do is ever gonna change that.

Traci: So I guess we just focus on the positive — kyle will be coming to genoa city to spend some time, and he’s bringing that adorable harrison. I’m sure you’re excited about that, right?

Jack: Yes, I am, and I am hoping to convince allie to come out while they’re here. It seems like the perfect opportunity to meet her whole new family.

Traci: Jack, are you sure that’s a good idea?

Victor: Hello, ashland.

Adam: We’ve been expecting you.

Ashland: Hmm. Well, I don’t want to spend any more time here with you than I’m sure you want to spend with me, so let’s get to it, yes.

Adam: [ Clears throat ] Here’s the document. Pretty straightforward. You sign on page three. Which states for $500 million us, you agree to relinquish all ownership and control of newman/locke as well as agree to an annulment of your marriage to victoria.

Ashland: As if I never existed. But then that is the goal, isn’t it? To erase me from newman/locke and from victoria’s life.

Victor: Once you sign, we’ll transfer the funds.

Ashland: Hmm. Two unreadable faces. Well done, gentlemen. But I know that inside both of you must be salivating right now. Scarcely able to believe that i would make it this easy for you. Better skin from your body wash?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Jack: Why wouldn’t I want to invite allie here while kyle and harrison are visiting from milan? That never happens. She gets to meet you, ashley, billy.

Traci: Naturally, you want your granddaughter to meet her new family as soon as possible. I’m your biggest supporter. I support that wholeheartedly, jack.

Jack: Yeah, you lobbied for it the last time we talked.

Traci: But that was before i knew about diane. And do you really think that you can welcome her —

Jack: Allie has met diane, and she has been appropriately warned.

Traci: But that doesn’t mean it’s gonna go smoothly. Or that the explosion is gonna be short-lived. Ah. If the goal is to ease allie into the meeting her new family for the first time, do you really think that it’s such a good idea to bring her into such a volatile mix?

Jack: You’re right. You’re right. Telling kyle the news about diane is enough.

[ Doorbell rings ] I’ll get it. Hey.

Phyllis: Sorry I didn’t call first.

Jack: That’s okay. What’s wrong?

Phyllis: You want the bad news or the worse news?

Jack: Um, whatever the news is, tell me.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Diane is here in genoa city. Staying at my hotel.

Adam: I’m sure you’ll find everything in order. The agreement exactly as we discussed. As my father, we are prepared to do our part immediately after you sign.

Victor: $500 million to the account you specified.

Ashland: Okay.

[ Clears throat ] Initial page one. Sign page three.

Victor: Alright, it’s done. The money has been transferred. You’re out of our lives.

Ashland: Don’t assume you’re speaking for your entire family, victor. Your daughter —

Victor: Spare me.

Nikki: Is it a bad time?

Victoria: No.

[ Sighs ] I mean, yes, but…I’m glad you’re here. Maybe you can help calm me down.

Nikki: I hear that ashland has agreed to adam’s plan to pay him off.

Victoria: From dad, I assume.

Nikki: Is it true?

Victoria: Yes. But he has one condition.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] What is the condition?

Victoria: Once ashland signs away control of the company and gets the money, he wants me to break all ties with the family and go away with him.

Nikki: What?!

Victoria: He’ll agree to the annulment, mother, if — if i stay with him.

Nikki: Well, you didn’t agree to that, did you?

Victoria: Well, of course i did. What other way was I going to get him out of newman and out of our family’s lives? It’s what you all wanted, wasn’t it?

Nikki: What do you want? That was just a ploy on your part, right?

Victoria: Right now ashland is signing away his entire life. Everything that he’s built, everything that…that we’ve built.

Nikki: Honey, you don’t owe him anything. Not after all of his lies and the way he used you. There is nothing binding you to that agreement. It was just words. Unless… please don’t tell me you want to stay with him.

Jack: This is just the kind of stunt diane would pull — showing up incognito so that when kyle arrives, she can pounce on him for god knows what reason.

Phyllis: Well, whatever the reason is, we are not gonna like it.

Jack: How did she seem?

Phyllis: I don’t know. She went on and on about how she was trying to rebuild her life in the last 10 years, and she wants to mend fences with her son.

Jack: Yeah, sticking to her story like the skilled liar she is.

Phyllis: You know, I said a couple things to her, started baiting her, see if she would lash out at me. She didn’t go there.

Jack: So you believed her?

Phyllis: Well, she was convincing. She puts on one of the best sincere acts I’ve ever seen.

Jack: Wait, then you’re buying it.

Phyllis: No. Not for a minute.

Jack: I don’t like that she’s even close. I heard from kyle that he and harrison are coming in soon.

Phyllis: Yeah, summer called me on my way over here.

Jack: So how do I keep diane away from kyle before I can talk to him?

Phyllis: You don’t have to worry about that. I’ll do that for you. That’s what I’m for. I mean, you have enough on your plate, telling kyle the truth and how he’s gonna react when he finds out that his mother’s still alive.

Jack: I want you to know i appreciate you dropping everything and trying to help me through all this. I mean it, you have consistently been there for me.

Phyllis: I’m happy to do it. I really am. Just so you know, I’m also protecting my daughter, ’cause whatever happens to kyle affects her. So not only am I in “best friend” mode, but I’m in “mama bear” mode. And make no mistake, this is personal for me.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Hmm. “The business world is speculating about recent moves at newman/locke, where chairman emeritus victor newman has abruptly installed his son, adam newman, as temporary ceo.”

[ Chuckles ] Victor’s at it again. Pulling strings, keeping everyone guessing. “Adam newman seen at society with his recently-appointed coo, sally spectra, appearing to mix pleasure with business. Future power couple in the making?”

[ Chuckles ] “Nikki newman to chair arts foundation gala for 10th consecutive year. Her organizational talent par excellence, tireless dedication to worthy causes –” blah, blah, blah, blah. “Mrs. Newman is a bright light in our community, and a powerful voice. A force to be reckoned with.”

[ Sighs ]

Nikki: I’ve been so worried about you, being under all this pressure. And I-I know your feelings for ashland are still strong. Despite everything he’s done, he still has a hold on your heart.

Victoria: Mom, I know. I know I shouldn’t be so confused and conflicted. But [Sighs] God help me, I am. And you’re right, this has been really, really hard. All of the pretending and lying to his face and the hate that I feel for him for what he’s done to me and the family. While at the same time…I feel like I’m grieving the loss of — of my marriage and — and the man that I thought was my soulmate.

Nikki: Well…you must have put on the performance of a lifetime to get him to agree to this deal.

Victoria: Do you know why i was able to pull it off, mom? Because…those feelings are still there for me to draw from. And even though I’ve slowly been putting the screws to him… I just have reconciled it at all in my heart or in my mind. After everything that ashland and I have been through and everything that we’ve shared, I mean, ashland’s love for me, it just — it seemed so powerful and real. I mean, could it have all been fake this whole time?

Nikki: Yes, because he is a sociopath. He knows all the right words to say, put on the perfect act, while feeling nothing except for some sick satisfaction that he was able to dupe us. Darling, don’t be ashamed that you thought it was genuine. We all did. This isn’t your fault. Do you understand, baby? It’s not your fault.

Victoria: I know that, mom. I’m not blaming myself. I just don’t know what to do with all of this love that i have in my heart.

[ Voice breaking ] Where does it go?

[ Sobbing ]

Nikki: In time, it will fade. And then you will heal. And you have your entire family to help you, baby, don’t worry. I know.

Victor: You wanted to be treated as an equal — a man worthy of having his name side-by-side with mine. But you couldn’t do it through grit and hard work. You did it by taking advantage of my daughter’s feelings and by taking advantage of this family’s generosity, by claiming to be terminally ill. That, my man, is sick.

Ashland: You may find this hard to believe, victor [Sighs] But I still admire the hell out of you. I really do. Your devotion to your family. Your commitment to your empire. You’re a shining example for all of us.

Adam: Look, now that everything’s finalized, you should — you should leave.

Ashland: One more thing. My love for your daughter has not changed, even in this moment. She is a remarkable woman, an independent woman, and no matter what, you should be proud of her.

Victor: Get him the hell out of here.

Adam: [ Sighs ] We hit the bike trails every weekend

Diane: [ Sighs ] Was coming here a mistake? Can I really pull this off? If I — if I reconnect with kyle and it goes well, then what? Ugh! Why didn’t I think this through before I left la?

[ Knock on door ]

[ Sighs ] Damn it, phyllis. Now what? Why can’t you just leave me alone?

Jack: What the hell do you think you’re doing?

Adam: I’m glad you got that off your chest. Told him what we all think about him. But let’s not waste any more brain space on ashland locke, okay? It’s over. We won.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Victoria: [ Sighs ]

Ashland: Alright, I just met with victor and adam. It’s done. I see no reason to stay here one minute longer. You ready to go?

Victoria: Did you really think that I would run away with you after everything you put me through? Did you really believe this wasn’t the absolute end for us?

Brad: [ Chuckles ]

Britt: Hmm. Oh, look. Carbs, sugar, and sugar.

Brad: What? We need energy.

Britt: Isn’t this a bit overboard? Hey, it’s not every day I get to help my bestie find the love of her life. Pull up those matches, and let’s ogle some men.

Anna: Oh, thank you so much for coming by on such short notice.

Laura: Happy to do it. It actually gives Jake and Aiden some guy time with Grandpa Kevin, so…

Anna: Oh, that’s sweet. Yeah. Come on in, please.

Felicia: Hi, Laura.

Laura: Hi.

Robert: Laura.

Laura: Hi.

Anna: Hi. So…Felicia and I, we just got back from Tahiti, and we had some information that we wanted to share with you both.

Felicia: It’s a lead on the Ice Princess.

Anna: Did you find the diamond? We did, and, uh, you both should know that a suspect has been arrested in regards to Luke’s murder.

Elizabeth: Dr. Robinson? Dr. Robinson.

Portia: Yes. Yes, yes. I’m sorry.

Elizabeth: We have a problem.

Brendon: My brother, Neil, kept your file in a lockbox, probably wondering whether he should turn you in to the cops. When Neil died, I inherited that lockbox, and I had no idea that I would stumble across all of that incriminating information — such as your daughter, Willow, isn’t actually your daughter.

Maid: Excuse me. Can I help you?

Harmony: Hey. I’m — I was just looking —

Maid: Are you a guest here?

Alexis: Sorry I didn’t get a chance to say hi earlier.

Finn: What? Oh, that’s okay.

Alexis: Your understanding is very moving. I would have been here on time, but I-I got held up at work.

Finn: Trouble in the Fourth Estate?

Alexis: A pushy freelancer.

Finn: Care to share?

Selina: I’ll begin arrangements for the first game.

Curtis: No.

Selina: Mr. Ashford, I’ve been more than fair.

Curtis: My last term is non-negotiable. There will be no games unless I get the information that I asked you for.

Selina: Then we have a deal.

Curtis: Jordan.

Harmony: Yes. Yeah. I just checked in, so… I hope I haven’t lost my key. [ Chuckles ] Ah. There. Found it.

Maid: Enjoy your stay.

Harmony: Thank you.

[ Lock beeps ]

Alexis: So, I invited Harmony to live with me.

Finn: Oh. Well, how did, uh — how did Kristina take that?

Alexis: Better than Sam.

Finn: Ah. Oh. Ow.

Alexis: You know she’s been a really good friend to me, right, at Spring Ridge, and she’s having a really hard time, so I wanted to help her out.

Finn: Well, helping a friend is one thing. Letting them move in, that’s a…

Alexis: Just temporary — until she finds a place of her own.

Finn: Seems reasonable.

Alexis: So I thought. And it turns out that she has more than a passing familiarity with my house.

Finn: What?

Alexis: Yeah. She apparently has been there before. Knew her way around. When she was trying to recruit Kristina with that whole dawn of day thing.

Finn: Ah.

Alexis: After all the time I spent with her at Spring Ridge, I really thought that I knew her. And now that she’s living in my house, I don’t feel like I know her at all.

Robert: So, who was it?

Anna: They arrested Jennifer smith.

Robert: Jennifer smith killed Luke?

Anna: All right. Just hear me out, please. Because it is possible, actually. Not only was the diamond found in her safe, but the WSB has information connecting her to the cable-car inspector who caused the accident that killed Luke.

Robert: So why would Jennifer kill Luke?

Felicia: Well, it was no secret that Jennifer still carried a torch for Luke. We were thinking that she stole the Ice Princess to lure him back to her. Unfortunately, her scheme went south… and he was killed in the process.

Robert: So, is she working with Victor?

Anna: Well, as of now — all right? — As of now, there’s no evidence suggesting that she was.

Robert: So with all the evidence collected over all these months, do we really believe that we have justice for our friend?

Brad: So, obviously, the duckpin bowler is out.

Britt: Obviously. Too bad, though. He’s pretty.

[ Laughs ]

Brad: Yeah. But he’s way too proud of those pins. Swipe! Ah. Number two’s got a nice jawline.

Britt: [ Sighs ] Pet cat. My mother says that’s a sign of weakness.

Brad: You showed these to your mother?

Britt: She was excited to help. Unfortunately, she has different criteria than I do.

Brad: Clearly. Though I suppose one could do worse than Scotty Baldwin.

Britt: Given her history, he is somehow a step up.

Brad: [ Exhales deeply ] Okay. Number three. Ah. He seems adventurous. Danger’s sexy, right?

Britt: Why? ‘Cause he likes to go skydiving and mountain climbing? Those are all outdoor activities, Brad.

Brad: Okay. Sorry. I thought Jason had opened you up to more adventurous things.

Britt: Yeah — like crossing international borders with falsified documents, not whatever that is.

Brad: Mm. It’s called, uh, spelunking.

Britt: Sounds like something you would do in private.

Brad: [ Sighs ] Should we keep doing this? I mean, anyone’s gonna be boring after a killer for hire.

Britt: Jason was not a hired killer.

Brad: Right. That was his steady job. Okay. How about we approach it like this? What exactly is your selection criteria? ‘Cause you’ve got six perfectly good matches here, and you clearly aren’t into any of them. Do you even want to meet someone?

Elizabeth: I’m missing your note from Mr. Clark’s exam yesterday.

Portia: Um, I’m sorry. I-I didn’t get a chance to, um, do that before I left. Um, the pertinent notes from the physical exam are in there, and everything else is the same as it was the day before.

Elizabeth: Yeah, I see that, but I need the notes from yesterday so that I can properly fill out the discharge paperwork.

Portia: And I will do that later. Just do what you can with what you have. Please.

Elizabeth: I can’t.

Portia: Mr. Clark is not critical, obviously, which is why he’s being discharged. Elizabeth, you have everything you need. Maybe you could just help me out a little bit here.

Elizabeth: I have my own work I need to do. I have my own patients that I need to see. It is not the nurse’s job to make sure the doctors turn in their exam notes.

Jordan: We have to stop running into each other like this. How are you?

Curtis: I’m good. You?

Jordan: Still here, so… can’t complain. How are things at home?

Curtis: Those damn reporters, they’re hounding Trina.

Jordan: Do you need the police to step in?

Curtis: We’re handling it.

Jordan: Okay. Well, let me know.

Curtis: Yeah.

Jordan: I just came from Spoon Island.

Curtis: Oh, um, you did, huh?

Jordan: Yeah. Spencer and Esme gave Detective Lopez their statements regarding Joss and Cam’s leaked sex tape. I thought I’d follow up in person. Follow up with both of them… or one in particular?

Esme Prince’s name has come up numerous times throughout this investigation, but I’m just gathering more information to fill out the case.

Curtis: How’s that going?

Jordan: Unfortunately, the staff made it clear that spencer and Esme wouldn’t speak to me without a lawyer, so I’ll have to try again some other time.

Curtis: You’re the police commissioner. Couldn’t you have a detective go out to Spoon Island?

Jordan: You know me. I like to get elbow-deep in a case every now and then. Reminds me of why I became a cop.

Curtis: To make sure justice is served.

Jordan: If I’ve learned anything from my past mistakes, it’s that you can’t have justice without the truth.

Curtis: In that case, Port Charles is lucky to have you as its commissioner.

Britt: It’s not that I don’t want to meet someone.

Brad: That was enthusiastic.

Britt: It’s — it’s just — it’s — it’s very overwhelming. I mean, what? I go from zero men to six? Why do I need that many matches?

Brad: You don’t have to date all of them at once.

Britt: My point is one man is enough trouble.

Brad: Wish I had that trouble.

Britt: Okay. Then let’s find you someone. What are you doing tonight?

Brad: Uh, watching Scandinavian murder dramas without subtitles to see if I can still follow the story and crying. Why?

Britt: [ Exhales sharply ] We’re going to the savoy. I’ll be your wing woman.

Brad: Eh, I don’t know. My chances might be better if I had, like, a job. Hey, speaking of which, have you heard from Terry about me working G.H.?

Britt: I really — I haven’t seen her much lately.

Brad: You’re co-Chiefs of Staff.

Britt: No. I mean, I’ve — I’ve seen her. But we just have other matters to discuss.

Brad: More important than helping your bestie get a job?

Britt: I put in a good word for you. I got you the meeting. I can’t do much else.

Brad: [ Sighs ] I know. You’re right. You’ve done a lot for me — more than I deserve — and I’m grateful. I just haven’t heard anything. I mean, if the answer’s no, then just tell me.

Britt: Well, no news is no news, Brad. And, you know, Terry puts a lot of thought into things like this.

Brad: How complicated is hiring an orderly?

Britt: When the orderly is you? [ Chuckles ]

Brad: Is that really it? Or is there something you’re not telling me?

Finn: So, about this Harmony business. Would you like some advice or just want me to listen?

Alexis: I really just want you to listen.

[ Laughing ]

Finn: That’s what I thought. Well, I’m here if you need me.

Alexis: So, what about you? How are things with Elizabeth?

Finn: Oh. Uh…complicated. My very presence in her life may be causing problems.

Alexis: How so?

Finn: Well, speaking of having an unwanted presence in one’s home…

Portia: Very succinctly put, Nurse Baldwin. I’ll do it right now. Is there anything else?

Elizabeth: Portia… can we — come here. Look, I didn’t mean to come down on you.

Portia: No. You know what? You’re right. I am not doing my job properly.

Elizabeth: You’ve got a lot going on. It’s not like anyone got hurt.

Portia: And I didn’t run out of time to do my notes. Elizabeth, I forgot. I’ve been so preoccupied with everything that’s going on with Trina. [ Sniffs ] It slipped my mind. I’m forgetting things.

Elizabeth: I understand. Y-you’ve — you’ve — you’re going through a lot.

Portia: And you are too. I-I… how are you holding up with everything?

Elizabeth: I’m overwhelmed. I’m exhausted. On top of everything else that’s going on at home, I’m working extra shifts.

Portia: When you say “what’s going on at home,” you mean this mess with Cam, Joss, and the video?

Elizabeth: Among other things.

Finn: Dante’s trying to figure out who’s stalking Elizabeth, but so far, no luck. Jake and Aiden, they’re staying at. Meanwhile, the PCPD, they’ve got patrol cars watching the house. And all of this has taken an incredible toll on Elizabeth.

Alexis: I can only imagine. How are you dealing with this?

Finn: I feel a little helpless. It’s been hard on her, hard on me, hard on the relationship. I mean, I’m not going anywhere. I’m gonna be there for her, even though she likes to handle everything herself. Just I’m afraid I’m the reason that things are getting worse. Feel free to disagree with me or make a suggestion at any time.

Alexis: Kevin?

Finn: Kevin? What does that mean? Oh. Collins?

Alexis: Yeah. Psychiatrist. He helped me. He’s good. And maybe he can help her clarify her perception of that moment.

Harmony: Okay. [ Exhales deeply ]

Robert: Something kind of ironic about Luke dying at the hands of a scorned woman.

Laura: Jennifer had been obsessed with him for decades.

Felicia: Yeah, not to mention she had the nerve to show up at Luke’s memorial service.

Laura: Yeah, except that when I talked to her there that day, it seemed to me that she was genuinely grieving.

Anna: A-and she vehemently protested her innocence. She insisted that she was framed because she said she would never have done this. She loved Luke.

Laura: Yeah. This just doesn’t make any sense to me. You know, if she wanted to get to Luke, why did she need to use the Ice Princess to do that? And then to rig a cable-car accident that would kill a lot of innocent people — I-I’m sorry. That’s just not in Jennifer smith’s league. If you ask me, that’s a Cassadine move.

Anna: Well, exactly, because we had our doubts that Jennifer could possibly be behind Luke’s death.

Laura: No. It has to be Victor.

Anna: Agreed. But unfortunately, we can’t connect him at this time. Meanwhile, the WSB has this evidence implicating Jennifer. And their theory, no matter how implausible, is still possible.

Laura: But the thing to remember about the Cassadines is if everything points to them except the evidence —

Anna: that’s because they’ve arranged for the evidence to point elsewhere.

Laura: Exactly.

Anna: Right.

Laura: Um, there’s something else that I wanted to tell you about. Just the other day, Victor gave me the hard sell about combining forces. Yeah. To protect the family from some ominous threat in the future.

Robert: Let’s not forget that Victor has been after Drew, hoping to trigger that mind-control rubbish of Helena’s.

Felicia: Here’s a thought. Is it possible that whatever Victor is up to is completely unconnected to the Ice Princess?

Anna: No. Because Victor comes to town, all right? He’s planning to use Drew for some nefarious purpose. At the same time — at the same exact time — Luke dies… and the Ice Princess is stolen. It’s not a coincidence. I just don’t believe it’s a coincidence, no matter what the WSB says.

Felicia: Well, what if Jennifer is telling the truth? I mean, if she really was set up, what is it that we can do to prove Victor’s involvement?

Robert: Well, um, I can think of a surefire way to find out if Victor is really involved in this.

Valentin: You know, I’ve always wanted to do that.

Alexis: I have a feeling that’s not your first swivel. Up. Now hug me.

Valentin: Hi.

Alexis: Ooh, it’s good to see you!

Valentin: You too. Good to see the rumors are true.

Alexis: You’re gonna have to narrow that down.

Valentin: While I was away recuperating, word on the street was that you were greatly improving your circumstances. This is nice.

Alexis: Mm.

Valentin: Love the quote.

Alexis: Yeah. So do I. Harmony Miller gave it to me.

Valentin: Who? Wait. Shiloh’s fixer at the D.O.D.? How did that happen?

Alexis: I think she found it online. Tell me — how are you?

Valentin: I’m fine. I’m back, and I’m better than ever.

Alexis: I’m sure you’re happy to be reunited with Charlotte.

Valentin: After the incident with Peter, I sent her away to boarding school.

Alexis: Peter’s dead. I don’t think he can kidnap her again.

Valentin: Wish I could have been the one to have killed him.

Alexis: You would’ve had to take a number.

Valentin: Speaking of numbers, yours are impressive. Circulation is up. Your online presence is spectacular.

Alexis: Why are you being so nice to me? What do you want?

Valentin: Well, I’ve had some time to think, and, uh, it occurs to me that a media company in the family could be very useful.

Alexis: Could it, now?

Valentin: And as it happens, my father agrees.

Bartender: What can I get you?

Harmony: Um, I’ll get a whiskey, neat. Actually, you know what? Can you, um — can you make it a double?

Bartender: Rough day?

Harmony: [ Exhales deeply ] You have no idea.

Harmony: Brendan, please listen!

Brendan: I won’t! But the police will listen to everything I now know — today!

Harmony: No! [ Grunts ] I won’t lose my daughter!

Brendan: [ Screams ]

[ Thud ]

[ Ice clinking in glass ]

Harmony: I just want you to always remember that you are the most important thing to me in this world.

Willow: Okay?

Harmony: I love you.

Brendan: What if I was to tell Michael Corinthos about this information? If Nina Reeves was to find out that Willow was her biological daughter — oh, boy, would that complicate the visitation case.

Harmony: [ Exhales deeply ] Okay. Okay.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Willow: Mom?

Portia: You think this is the same person who put the wedding ring in your locker?

Elizabeth: I mean, that makes the most sense.

Portia: I’m sorry, honey, but this is terrifying.

Elizabeth: I know.

Portia: I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

Elizabeth: Thank you. I appreciate that.

Portia: And I really do owe you an apology. I-I mean, I’ve been so preoccupied on everything with Trina, I haven’t checked in on you at all.

Elizabeth: No. I mean, I haven’t checked in with you, either. I get it. We’re just stressed.

[ Cellphone beeps ]

Portia: I have to check on a patient.

Elizabeth: Yeah. Go. Go. But we’re okay. All right?

Portia: Yeah.

Britt: The truth is… I-I did — I did speak to Terry about your interview.

Brad: I take it it’s a hard pass.

Britt: No. She hasn’t made a decision yet. But she didn’t shoot it down, either. So that’s a good sign, right? I think she’s actually open to hiring you.

Brad: That’s amazing. So how can I move the needle?

Britt: Excuse me?

Brad: You know how Terry thinks. Tell me how to give myself an advantage. I really want this job.

Selina: Imagine that I have all the proof I need to send you back to prison — for good this time.

Britt: What do you want?

Selina: I have plans for Bradley. And changing bedpans isn’t part of this. This is where you come in. You will keep Brad on the right path. The challenge, Dr. Westbourne, is that while you’re pulling Brad’s strings, he’ll never know that I’m pulling yours.

Britt: Do nothing.

Brad: Do nothing? Wait. Are you afraid I’m gonna embarrass myself again?

Britt: No. No. I-I’m just wondering — do you really want to be an orderly?

Brad: Terry made it clear she wouldn’t consider me for anything else.

Britt: Then don’t work at G.H. Hold out for something better.

Jordan: I told you why I’m here. Your turn.

Curtis: I’m just clearing my head, getting some fresh air.

Jordan: Any chance you’ll need to go all the way to Spoon Island to clear your head?

Curtis: You know me.

Jordan: All right. Well, I’ll leave you to it. Are we good?

Curtis: Uh, yeah, we’re good. Why wouldn’t we be?

Jordan: Because I didn’t get Marshall’s sealed arrest records for you.

Curtis: Uh, pbht, no. I’m — I’m past that. We’re good.

Jordan: In that case, if your thoughts do take you to Wyndemere, don’t let spencer and Esme get under your skin. You have a new family now. They need you.

Curtis: Thanks for the advice.

Selina: I thought she would never leave.

Robert: All I’m suggesting is that you take your closeness with Valentin and maybe use it for some greater good.

Laura: It’s a lot to ask.

Robert: Well, look. If Valentin is on the side of the good guys, as he claims to be —

Anna: Stop. Stop it. Don’t push it. Even if I did get Valentin to tell us something, you wouldn’t even trust it.

Robert: Maybe not, but all I’m suggesting is that you take your relationship with Valentin and…use it for something better.

Felicia: Relationship? What relationship?

Alexis: Since when do you care what Victor thinks?

Valentin: Like I said, I’ve had a lot of time to think about it. And despite Victor’s many faults, I think there’s something to be said about his notion of family unity.

Alexis: These are Cassadines we’re talking about. They take to family like sharks take to chum. If Victor wants to get close to you, he’s not being paternal. He’s hungry.

Valentin: We have a rare opportunity. It’s unprecedented.

Alexis: You tell uncle Victor that we do not have a family paper. It doesn’t belong to me, and even if it did, I would never allow the Cassadines to use it as a mouthpiece. What do you think he wants it for, anyway?

Valentin: Greater good.

Alexis: Said no Cassadine ever.

Valentin: Alexis, don’t turn your back on what’s left of the Cassadine family.

Alexis: I have daughters. And you, I hope.

Valentin: You will always have me.

Alexis: Not if Victor’s attached.

Valentin: Okay. Well, think about it, because I have. And we’ll talk soon. You can’t pick your family.

Alexis: On the contrary. You have to.

Willow: What brings you back here?

Harmony: I just needed to unwind. Please come. Join me. Unless you’re here with Michael. I know I’m just — I’m not his favorite person.

Willow: Michael went to the gym. Oh. I was, um, planning to go to G.H. To study, but I’m a little under the weather, so I decided to have some soup while I study.

Harmony: Do you need to see a doctor?

Willow: It’s mostly my head. It’s probably a stress headache from Nina. Sorry. Sorry. You just said you needed to unwind. You don’t need me dumping all of my stress on you.

Harmony: No. Oh, my gosh. No. You can tell me anything any time, Willow. I will be here for you as long as I can.

Willow: As long as you can? What, are — are you going somewhere?

Finn: Hi.

Elizabeth: Hey. I’m so glad to see you.

Finn: I’m glad to see you.

Elizabeth: Dante called.

Finn: Mm.

Elizabeth: They couldn’t find any fingerprints on the defaced painting other than mine and Jake’s.

Finn: Mm.

Elizabeth: And they couldn’t trace where the paint came from. It looks like we’ve hit another dead end.

Finn: For now. You know, Chase is a good detective. He’s at your place right now. I know he’s gonna turn something up.

Elizabeth: I just wish I hadn’t taken that stupid sleeping pill that night. Maybe I could remember what the figure looked like.

Finn: What if there’s a way you could remember?

Britt: This is the perfect opportunity for you to start over. You can do anything you want with your life.

Brad: I want the life I had before I went to prison. But since that’s not possible, I…

Britt: That’s right. It’s not. So why settle for crumbs of what you used to have? Don’t limit yourself. Have you really considered any other options?

Brad: Do you not want me working at G.H.?

Britt: I just — I want you to have everything you’ve dreamed of. And this is not that. This is a crappy version of it — literally. Don’t limit yourself.

Brad: Well…I’m not qualified to do much else outside the medical field. And with my background, no other hospitals are gonna hire me without someone there vouching for me. Trust me, working at G.H. Is the best thing for me — even as an orderly.

Britt: I’m just saying, keep your options open.

Brad: The only other option I have is working for my aunt. [ Scoffs ] And we both know no good will come of that.

Curtis: Your messenger said you wanted to meet me here. I’m guessing you have some information for me.

Selina: We had a deal — I get you information on Marshall Ashford, and you let me host my poker games at your club.

Curtis: I remember. Were you able to get that police report?

Selina: Yes and no.

Curtis: Either you got it or you don’t.

Selina: My people were able to access witness-protection files, but they came up empty on Marshall Ashford.

Curtis: What do you mean?

Selina: My people don’t fail, Mr. Ashford. There is no file because Marshall Ashford was never in witness protection.

Felicia: I know you’ve been spending a lot of time with Valentin, but a relationship?

Anna: Okay. You know what? We’re getting off topic here. I agree with you, Laura, that there’s too many loose ends that just don’t add up. And — and that’s really because all of these missing pieces are being concealed by Victor.

Felicia: We do still have one bit of evidence.

Laura: What’s that?

Anna: Oh, yes. Thank you. So, Jennifer claims that she had a man in her room, a French naval captain, and she insisted that he was the one that planted the diamond in her safe.

Laura: Does this captain have a name?

Felicia: Francois Olivier.

Anna: Right. But we couldn’t locate him before we had to leave.

Robert: Maybe Jennifer invented him to save her own skin.

Felicia: Oh, no, no, no. I spoke with the bartender there. He confirmed that there was a man that Jennifer was friendly with.

Robert: Well, maybe she lured him to her room as a patsy.

Laura: Wouldn’t be the first time.

Anna: Okay. I don’t want to rule anything out — Jennifer’s guilt or Victor’s potential involvement.

Brad: Don’t work at G.H.?

[ Cellphone chirps ]

Brad: Why the change of —

Britt: uh, hang on. [ Chuckles ]

Brad: Something urgent?

Britt: Um, yes. That. I got a notification from society setups that I have matches to review. As if I forgot.

Brad: Why are you dragging your feet on that? You’ve got a perfectly great selection of guys there.

Britt: So great they need a matchmaker? I’m different.

Brad: Uh-huh.

Britt: I’m using a matchmaker because I have a pushy mother.

Brad: I hope you didn’t put that in your profile.

Britt: Maybe this is hopeless. I mean, what kind of future could I hope for with any of these guys?

Brad: What do you mean by that?

Finn: What do you think about making an appointment to see Kevin Collins?

Elizabeth: Um, you know I’m all for therapy, but I don’t see how talking about it is going to solve this particular problem. And I-I don’t even know where I’d find the time.

Finn: I don’t mean long term. I just — I know Kevin specializes in therapies that recover memories, right?

Elizabeth: Well, yeah.

Finn: Perhaps if you — you work with him, maybe he’ll at least help clarify what you saw. It might lead us to who’s harassing you.

Elizabeth: I don’t know.

Finn: It’s up to you, of course. It might be worth a shot.

Elizabeth: No, it’s — it’s a good idea, but I just need some — let — let me think about it.

Finn: Yeah. Yeah. Of course. Of course. Hey. You sure you’re okay?

Elizabeth: Actually, I’m gonna ask Epiphany if I can take a personal day.

Finn: That’s good. Okay. Well, um, you go home and get some rest. I’ll, uh — I’ll check in on you later.

Elizabeth: You’d better.

Jordan: Portia.

Portia: Commissioner.

Jordan: I ran into Curtis. He told me reporters are giving Trina a hard time. I-I came by to offer my help.

Portia: Well, if you really want to help, you can get the D.A. To dismiss the charges.

Jordan: I wish I could.

Portia: And I wish you meant that. Of course, if you did, you wouldn’t have arrested my daughter in the first place.

Curtis: Okay. Then I’ll just take a copy of the sealed arrest records, assuming they exist.

Selina: They do.

Curtis: Where are they?

Selina: They’re in my possession — where they will remain for now.

Curtis: Ms. Wu, we had a deal.

Selina: And I have every intention of holding up my end. But first, you must uphold yours.

Curtis: How do I even know you have those records?

Selina: Safely stored away. I’ll gladly give them to you after you do what I ask. Have your club ready for me.

Harmony: Don’t look so concerned. I just meant that, you know, soon you’re gonna be graduating nursing school, which is, like, amazing. I am so proud of you. That means you’re gonna be working full time, and your free time is gonna be with Wiley and Michael, your family.

Willow: Well, you’re my family, too. Look, I really appreciate the effort you’ve been making over the last few months to rebuild our relationship. I know I haven’t exactly… made it easy for you.

Harmony: Well, that’s understandable, all things considered.

Willow: Well, I’m happy to keep working on it with you.

Harmony: Willow, that… [ Voice breaking ] That means so much. You know, after all the mistakes I made with you growing up, getting you involved in Dawn of day, there was a time that I just — I didn’t even — I didn’t even hold out hope for a relationship or forgiveness.

Willow: I was angry with you for a long time. I didn’t know if I could trust you again. But, I mean, look at you now. Every time I see you, you are bending over backwards to make up for your past.

Harmony: Unfortunately, the past, it just keeps hanging over us.

Willow: But it doesn’t have to. I have forgiven you.

Harmony: You have? That is so much more than I deserve.

Willow: Oh.

Harmony: It’s just no matter how hard I try to do the right thing… trouble just keeps following me. Right up to your doorstep, even.

Willow: Mom, does this have anything to do with that man that approached us yesterday? What was his name? Brendon Byrne.

Jordan: this is my job. I had no choice.

Portia: Of course you have a choice, Jordan. See, I’ve seen you. I have seen you go outside the law for your family time and time again.

Jordan: And it has brought nothing but trouble, which is why I have to play everything by the book.

Portia: Oh, oh. Of course you do — now. Because it’s my daughter. Which begs the question… you know what? Never mind.

Jordan: No. You clearly have something to say. Say it.

Portia: I’m wondering if you are making this personal.

Anna: Thanks for coming by.

Robert: Oh, if it’s not the devil incarnate. Mm.

[ Birds chirping ]

Valentin: If I’m the devil, does that mean you were speaking about me?

Anna: We were.

Valentin: Good, ’cause I haven’t stopped thinking about you.

Britt: Look at my life. I mean, where would a relationship even fit in?

Brad: Evenings and weekends?

Britt: I work those. I mean, the only reason I had time for my last relationship was because we were on the run from the law and assassins. I couldn’t work remotely.

Brad: [ Sighs ] So you’ve been burned a few times. But that doesn’t mean you should give up. Your Mr. Perfect’s out there.

Britt: No, he isn’t.

Brad: But Mr. Sufficient might be. So go find him. You deserve to be happy, Britt.

Britt: Thanks, Brad. You know who also deserves happiness? You.

Brad: [ Sighs ] No.

Britt: Yes.

Brad: Ah, who am I to argue? So, here’s the plan. Step one — you get your man. Step two — I go get the job at G.H., Then I get my own man.

Britt: Isn’t that step two and three?

Brad: No. ‘Cause step three is you and I both living our best lives. Simple as that.

Britt: Brad…

Brad: What? You don’t like the plan?

Britt: I love the plan. There’s something I need to tell you.

Selina: Good afternoon, nephew. Dr. Westbourne.

Brad: Aunt Selina. Britt and I were just —

Selina: Yeah. I’m sure you’ve enjoyed your time with your friend. Now you must listen to my good news. I have a job for you.

Brad: You, uh — you do?

Selina: Starting immediately. Come, Bradley. We have much to discuss.

Brad: Hmm? Okay.

[ Telephone rings ]

Elizabeth: Nurse’s station.

Man: Don’t forget me.

Elizabeth: What?

Man: Don’t forget me — in room 1011. I asked for a blanket.

Elizabeth: Uh…yeah. Just a moment, please.

Harmony: What makes you think this is about that guy from last night?

Willow: I saw him say something to you when he was leaving. And it wasn’t “excuse me.”

Harmony: It was nothing. I swear. It was — um, he knows Alexis, and I met him at her office.

Willow: Then why didn’t you say so?

Harmony: ‘Cause I don’t know. I just — I didn’t think it mattered. There I go again, making the wrong decision.

Willow: Mom.

Harmony: [ Exhales deeply ]

Willow: Mom, what is going on? Do — do you need help?

Harmony: No. Oh, that’s so sweet of you. No. You don’t have to worry about me. Ever. Okay? I can look after myself, and I’m gonna be here to look after you, too.

Willow: Well, thanks.

Harmony: I know I said it before. But I truly, truly mean it… Willow. No matter what I’ve done… I’ve done it for you.

Willow: Uh, what do you mean, you did it for me? Mom, what have you done?

Alexis: [ Exhales sharply ]

On the next “General Hospital” —

Portia (to Jordan): You honestly can be impartial.

Marshall (to TJ): I’m so happy that you found yours.

Josslyn (to Cameron): Who’s side are you on?

Britt (to Spencer): Do you believe Trina filmed that video?

Valentin (to Anna): I absolutely would have done the same thing.

Drew (to Michael): I think you summed up my situation perfectly.

Alexis: Oh my God.

Nancy: Bonnie! Oh. Oh, I’m sorry for dropping in like this, but it’s an emergency.

Bonnie: Look at you, all gorgeous. Did you come by for a refresh?

Nancy: No, no, it’s not that kind of an emergency. I need some advice and I didn’t have anyplace else to go.

Bonnie: Oh, honey, you came to the right place. Tell me all about it.

Nancy: Yesterday, craig and i signed the divorce papers. Now there’s nothing stopping that little gold-digging fiancée of his from getting everything he wants.

Leo: “In the matter of”… oh, my god. It can’t be. It is. It’s A… prenup. On our wedding day? What the hell?

Craig: Hey.

[Tense music]

Ava: It’s ava vitali.

Abigail: What do you want?

Ava: Well, I have some information that I think you will find very interesting.

Nicole: Can I get a double espresso, please?

Eric: Coming right up.

Nicole: Uh… I thought I was having vivid dreams before, but this one takes the cake.

Ava: You came.

Abigail: What are you doing here?

Ava: What do you think? I don’t hang around the police station for fun. Well, at least not anymore.

Abigail: So you’ve been arrested.

Ava: Yes, by the police commissioner who I used to sleep with. He accused me of setting him up.

Abigail: Well, I never believed that rafe actually planted evidence in the first place, but what does any of this have to do with me?

Ava: It’s just a big misunderstanding. And I think that you can help me resolve it.

Abigail: You want your story in “the spectator”? Are you hoping for a little public sympathy?

Ava: No, I don’t want you to interview me, abigail. I want you to talk to trask on my behalf.

Abigail: Why would I do that?

Ava: Because I can help you in return.

Gwen: Gabi.

Gabi: Hey, gwen. What brings you here?

Gwen: I was actually thinking of booking this place. It’d be a wonderful venue for a little celebration.

Gabi: Oh, and what are you celebrating, pray tell?

Gwen: Xander and I are getting married today. Actually, we’re not the only ones; it’s gonna be a double wedding, and a fab one at that.

Craig: I’m glad I tracked you down, ’cause we’ve got a lot to do before we walk down that aisle in a few hours.

Leo: Including me signing this? With no warning at all? No explanation?

Craig: What are you talking about?

Leo: I thought you loved me.

Craig: I do.

Leo: Trusted me.

Craig: I do.

Leo: Then how could you ambush me with a prenup on our wedding day?

Craig: Prenup?

Leo: All that poison people poured into your ear about me– you believe them, don’t you?

Craig: Leo… I swear, I’ve never seen this before.

Leo: What? Well, then where did it come from?

Chloe: From me.

[Tense music]

Nicole: [Chuckles] Um… welcome back.

[Chuckles awkwardly] Okay. When did you get back to salem?

Eric: This morning. Yeah, my dad–he had some paperwork to get done and I volunteered to watch the bar.

Nicole: So why did you come back?

[Tense music]

Eric, did you leave the priesthood? As a struggling actor,

Eric: No, I’m still a priest.

Nicole: Oh. Then why aren’t you wearing your collar?

Eric: I only have to wear it when I’m saying mass or performing a sacrament. And the reason why I’m home– because the last time I was here it was a bit intense.

Nicole: Yeah, your mom’s exorcism.

Eric: Yeah. And I had some free time, so I, uh… I got on a plane, you know? I just wanted to be with the people that I love. I miss my family and I miss my friends and… I missed you.

[Lively jazzy music]

Chloe: A double wedding, huh?

Gwen: Yeah. I mean, it hasn’t really been a fantasy of mine, truth be told, but the thing is is my really old, dear friend lives in salem now. And he’s also in a rush to be married with his fiancé. So he suggested we take the plunge together. And he’s offered to pick up the tab.

Gabi: Oh, what a great friend. Anybody I know?

Gwen: His name’s matty cooper. You might know him as leo stark.

Gabi: Leo stark? Are you serious? He tried to ruin will and sonny’s lives– my daughter’s daddies. You know what? I hate that weasel with a vengeance.

Gwen: Okay, well, I know he’s not perfect. I mean, who is? He’s my friend and I’m terribly fond of him.

Gabi: You may be the only person on earth who is.

Gwen: I’ve also heard that his fiancé is quite mad about him too.

Gabi: Oh, okay. God help that guy. Must be a man, although i wouldn’t put it past leo to marry some rich old woman and take her for everything she’s worth.

Gwen: Okay, why don’t we just agree to disagree on matty. Yeah? Because he’s getting married, as I said, he’s a very good friend of mine, and I’m gonna marry xander and I want everything to just be perfect. And I do think this will be a very nice venue for a little intimate dinner after the ceremony.

Gwen: Hey, isn’t locking down the venue the maid of honor’s job?

Abigail: Matron, actually. And it’s abigail.

Gabi: Did you say abigail? Abigail who you drugged and sent to the loony bin? She’s your matron of honor?

Gwen: We’re moving past all that.

Gabi: Even the sleeping with her husband part? Okay, you know what? Never mind. None of my business.

Gwen: No, it isn’T.

Gabi: Besides, I really– I’m so happy right now. I am so really, really, impressed with myself. Ooh, more than usual.

Gwen: Why? What have you done?

Gabi: Well because–[Drumming on table] Drumroll please– I got ava vitali arrested.

[Laughs]

Abigail: How could you possibly help me?

Ave: Well, if I recall correctly, both you and your husband are pretty eager to find out who bashed you over the head that night at the air field?

Abigail: Hmm. You mean the night of your harmless prank wearing the sarah mask? The night you saw nothing and know nothing about?

Ava: Yeah, well, maybe i wasn’t being completely up-front.

Abigail: Hmm. So unlike you.

Ava: Last time I was here, chad came and he paid me a visit and offered me a quid pro quo. I give him a name and he will go to bat for me with the da, get me a deal.

Abigail: Which you refused.

Ava: I did, yes.

Abigail: But now you’re wanting to talk, which means you are guilty as hell.

Ava: Oh. I’ve been wrongly accused, abigail. And I need a little assistance. Look, the way I see it is if I tell you attacked you that night and you take that to trask and get me a deal, we both get justice.

Nancy: You know, signing those divorce papers was very hard for me, bonnie, obviously. But… craig was sweet and he made every effort to help me get through it.

Bonnie: Yeah? How did he do that?

Nancy: Well, he bought me a drink and then he told me how much our life together meant to him and, um… how much he treasured the moments, the fun times that we had together. And, um… well, then he asked me to come to his wedding and said that it would mean a lot to him.

Bonnie: I’m sorry, I don’t think I heard you right. Did you just say he–

Nancy: He invited me to his wedding.

Bonnie: To leo stark?

Nancy: Well, who else is he marrying?

Bonnie: [Scoffs]

Nancy: Oh, come on, bonnie. Get your jaw up off the floor.

Bonnie: Well, why wouldn’t it be on the floor? For the man who left you after 30 years of marriage and making two children together– not to mention treasuring all those “fun times” you had together– for him to think it would be fun for you to attend his wedding to someone else?

Nancy: I know. I know, bonnie. It would be hard for me to see him marrying that horrible leo stark, but… I told him I’d think about it.

Bonnie: Exactly how much did you have to drink before you told him that?

Nancy: Hardly anything. I was very sober.

[Sighs] But I have to admit, bonnie, I was… I was kind of touched. I…[Sighs] I care about craig and I always will and… that’s why I need your advice.

Bonnie: Really? Do you really need to know what my advice is?

Nancy: I guess I already know what it is.

Bonnie: Okay, then. In case you had the slightest doubt, I have exactly three words of advice: Just say no.

[Tense music]

Craig: Chloe, why did you do this?

Chloe: Well, I knew that you would be busy with your wedding arrangements, and so I had justin take care of that for you. But since you are marrying my father for love, it’s not gonna be a problem signing that, right, leo? I mean, you can just read it. It’s pretty straightforward. Oh, and you’re going to need… this.

No matter who you are,

Eric: So how you been?

Nicole: Good. Good. I’m good.

Eric: Good. How’s holly?

Nicole: Oh. Oh. Holly is– she is such a little lady now. You know, she absolutely loves to sing.

Eric: [Laughs]

Nicole: She knows all the words to all the songs in “annie.”

Eric: Oh, really? That’s great.

Nicole: Yeah. Yeah. Watched it about a million times.

[Both laugh] I really hope that you get a chance to see her.

Eric: Yeah, I’d love that.

Nicole: [Chuckles]

Eric: So I hear ej got cleared of, uh… sami’s kidnapping.

Nicole: Yeah.

Eric: And, um, you two still…a thing?

Nicole: No. No. We’re not. I realized that we are not right for each other.

Eric: I’m happy to hear that. And you know what? I meant what I said at new year’S. I just… I just want you to be happy with whomever it is that you’re with. But ej was just not the man that I–

Nicole: I’m seeing rafe.

Eric: Rafe’s a good man.

Nicole: [Exhales]

Eric: Yeah. You two have been friends for a really long time.

Nicole: Yeah. We have, but it’S…now turned into something more.

Eric: How did that happen? I mean– I mean… if you don’t mind me asking.

Gwen: Ava’s been arrested?

Gabi: And I made it happen. That bitch is gonna pay for framing my brother, not to mention moving in with jake just to spite me.

Gwen: Huh. How’d you pull that off?

Gabi: Well, I found the dirtbag that she paid to frame my brother, and he coughed up a recording admitting everything.

Gwen: Wow. Well done.

Gabi: Best part was I got a front row seat to rafe arresting her. I mean, talk about karma, right? That skank is probably cooling off her heels right this second at the station. And next– next stop is jail and then court and then statesville, where she’s gonna hopefully rot forever. No way out. I mean, can you imagine how desperate ava must feel right now?

[Inhales deeply]

[Exhales]

Ava: So? What did trask say?

Abigail: Not a chance.

Ava: Why the hell not?

Abigail: You framed the police commissioner, ava. It’s a felony. The person who hit me would only be charged assault, and it’s not nearly enough to interest trask.

Ava: It wasn’t just assault. They kidnapped you. They took you to a desert island and held you captive.

Abigail: I reminded her of all that, but she still thinks that you’re a bigger fish than whoever knocked me out.

Ava: So what if I told you that this person has committed other crimes since then?

Abigail: What other crimes?

Ava: So sarah’s not off with rex?

Gwen: No. She’s fending off bugs on some tropical deserted island that kristen sent her to.

Ava: [Laughs] Kristen does not mess around, does she?

Gwen: Exactly.

Ava: So that’s why you helped break her out of jail– because at any moment she could tell xander where to find his not-so-runaway bride. You switched out the antidote? How is that even possible?

Gwen: [Sighs] Because I still had some left from when I used it on abigail.

Ava: So you had that just tucked away on the odd chance that down the road, you might wanna drive somebody else out of their mind?

Gwen: And you can thank god that I did, because you and i both know that if rolf’s antidote could bring back sarah, xander would go back to her in a heartbeat.

Ava: Trust me. What this person has done– it’ll give trask a much bigger fish than me.

Abigail: Unless you’re just jerking me around.

Ava: Why would I do that, abigail? I wanna get out of here.

Abigail: Great. You want this so bad, this fish is so big, then who is it, hmm? Who is it and what have they done? Don’t waste my time. Okay, if you’re not gonna spill it right here, right now, then I’m leaving.

Ava: Wait. I’ll tell you.

Bonnie: You cannot go to that wedding, nancy.

Nancy: Bonnie, I know it won’t be easy for me. But–

Bonnie: But? But? How can that word even be in that sentence? I know you had a drink with craig and I know it was all sweet and comforting and that he went on about how great things had been between you. But seriously, girl, the man broke your heart.

Nancy: Oh, yes, I know. But… bonnie, it really wasn’t his fault.

Bonnie: Ugh, nancy, that’s “irrevelant.” No, is it–irrelevant. Relevant?

Nancy: Neither. It’s neither, bonnie.

[Sighs] Look… craig didn’t leave me because I wasn’t enough. And he didn’t go for a younger woman because he wanted to stoke his ego. I mean, he was a man trying to deal with his own sexual orientation.

Bonnie: Let me guess, you’ve been reading up on the topic of failed marriages.

Nancy: Well, I’ve been reading a lot of books, but– in general, but not just about failed marriages. They’re failed marriages that deal with, well, when one member of a marriage is gay. I mean, from everything that I’ve read, I feel like I have so much more empathy for what craig has been going through. A lot more than I had in the beginning.

Bonnie: Honey.

Nancy: Look, bonnie, I can tell by the look on your face that you feel that I’m, like, wimpy and totally pathetic. I mean, I’m sure that you had a lot more respect for me when I wanted to just kill the guy.

Bonnie: No, no. Stop. Stop. Honey, I didn’t have more respect for you back then. Honestly, I’m just trying to protect you from running right into the eye of that storm. Attending your ex-hus– and not ex for a very long time–wedding to someone you think is scum.

Nancy: I know craig doesn’t think that way about leo. So I have to try to respect that–

Bonnie: Have to? In my opinion, you don’t have to do anything but what you’re doing right now, which is trying to get through this and move on with your life.

[Sighs] But looking in your eyes, I can tell that no matter how many times I tell you to tell him no or tell you not to go to the wedding–just falling on deaf ears. And I get it.

Nancy: You really do?

Bonnie: Mm-hmm. Honey, you loved that man for most of your life and you wanna be there for him. All I’m saying is just, I don’t know, think about it for a couple of days.

Nancy: I can’T. Craig texted me and said that the wedding has been moved up to tonight.

Bonnie: Tonight? Well, why didn’t you tell me that?

Nancy: I just did. And bonnie…I wanna go.

Bonnie: Then I respect your decision.

Nancy: I, um, just hope that everybody doesn’t just stare at me and go, “oh, there’s the woman whose husband left her for a man,” while I’m sitting there all alone.

Bonnie: So don’t go alone.

Nancy: I have no choice. The wedding is tonight.

Bonnie: Sure you do. You just get yourself a hot date to take you.

Nancy: Bonnie, I just told you the wedding is tonight. Where am I gonna find a date on such short notice?

Bonnie: Easy, killer. We’ll find you a date right here.

Leo: I have never been so insulted in my entire life. Craig and I aren’t even married yet and you’re talking divorce?

Chloe: That’s the whole point of a prenup, leo, to figure it out ahead of time. And what better way to prove that you’re marrying my father for love and not money?

Leo: What better way than by signing a stupid document? With love and devotion, that is a better way. With something that is private and sacred. And also special and exciting and happens at least twice a day and sometimes more.

Craig: Leo.

Chloe: Okay, so you won’t sign it, will you? Surprise. Dad, what else do you need to prove that this guy’s a gold digger?

Craig: Chloe, stop it. Right now.

Leo: See? He is as appalled as I am. So you can take the stupid prenup and you know what you can do with it?

Craig: Hold it. Just… I think you should sign it.

[Tense music]

With depression, you just feel…blah.

Gwen: Why would you say that ava’s desperate? Did she say something?

Gabi: What do you mean? Like what?

Gwen: You’re not gonna rat me out, are you?

Ava: You know, despite committing my fair share of crimes, I’ve managed to stay out of prison for most of my life. I’m not getting locked up for this.

Gwen: What are you saying?

Ava: Well, what I’m saying is if I do get arrested, the only way out may be to give them a name. So I’m gonna ask you one simple question. Why shouldn’t I sacrifice you to save myself?

Gabi: Gwen? Something wrong?

Ava: Make the offer to trask. You hook her, and then I’ll give you the name and the crimes.

Abigail: You know, I don’t really think you’re in a position to be calling the shots here, ava.

Ava: I’m just asking you to work with me here. It’s not like you walk away empty-handed.

Abigail: But you won’t tell me who this mystery person is.

Ava: If I give away everything I know up front, then you can take all of that to trask and cut me out. And then I got nothing to bargain with, and there’s no reason for her to give me immunity.

Abigail: Well, then I guess we’re at a standoff.

Nicole: [Sighs] How rafe and I got together is a really long story.

Clyde: Well, look who’s back. And all the way from africa, huh? Your daddy told me you were living there now.

Eric: Clyde weston. Are you working here?

Clyde: I sure am. Your old man gave me a job. He didn’t tell you that?

Eric: No, he did not.

Nicole: Uh… weren’t you in prison?

Clyde: I got paroled.

Nicole: I’m sorry, why would roman hire you after you kidnapped his great-grandson?

Clyde: Because he knows I did my time, paid for my crimes, and that I’m determined to be a better man from this point on.

Nicole: [Scoffs]

Clyde: You believe in redemption, don’t you, padre?

Leo: Craig, I am beyond offended that you need me to sign some legal document to prove that I love you.

Craig: I don’t need you to sign it, but obviously my daughter does.

Leo: Because she doesn’t trust me, which is very hurtful.

Craig: I know. Leo, I am so sick of all of the people that I know and care about constantly coming after me with suspicions and warnings about you, but if– if your signing this puts a stop to all that, then… I think you should do it. Please? For me.

Ava: I make it a practice never to give away something for nothing.

Abigail: Right. Well, thank you. Now have fun in jail. Don’t pass go. Don’t collect $200 or anything. Boy, this was really a waste of time coming down here, except maybe– maybe I got a story for “the spectator.” “Ex-mafia princess finally brought down by ex-lover’s kid sister.” Meh.

Ava: It was gwen.

Abigail: What?

Ava: The person who attacked you, it was your sister… gwen.

Gabi: Gwen? Hey, you look–are you okay?

Gwen: Um, I just realized, I have a million things to do, so I’m just–I’m gonna run.

Gabi: Weren’t you gonna book this place for afterwards?

Gwen: You’re right. That is a job for my matron of honor, so I’ll just have abigail do it, so bye.

Gabi: Mm-hmm.

Nancy: How’s this: “Recently divorced, fun-loving woman. Donates her time to charitable causes.” What’s wrong with that?

Bonnie: They’re all too bland. It’s a jungle out there. You gotta spice it up. How about this: “Back on the market. Hot to trot and ready for action.”

Nancy: Ready for action?

Bonnie: You asked for my help–let me help you. I know about this stuff. Trust me.

Nancy: Oh. Is this how you met justin? On a dating app?

Bonnie: God, no. But I’ve helped plenty of my friends do this, so here we go. Now, the important thing is to get a really good picture, so– okay, stand up. Let’s go. Let’s go. Over here. Get a nice background. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. All right, yeah. Give me a smile. Oh, nancy, that looks like cramps. Try again. Nah, give me some teeth this time. Okay, honey, you gotta loosen up, all right? Have some fun. Think of something fun like a roll in the hay with a hot date.

Nancy: The only guy I can think of is craig.

Bonnie: Whatever floats your boat. Just give me a smile here. Ah, perfect.

[Camera shutter clicking] Hold that. Hold it. Hold it. Hold it. Uh-huh.

Nancy: Can I stop smiling now?

Bonnie: Yep. Now all we gotta do is pick the perfect picture, upload it, and we are off to the races. Then when you walk into that wedding with that gorgeous man on your arm, craig wesley, gay or not gay, will rue the day that he let you go.

Chloe: What are you waiting for, leo?

Leo: Give me a second, ms. Bossypants. I’d like to know what I’m signing.

Chloe: I told you, it’s pretty standard.

Leo: “All premarital and postmarital property is separate including any residence in which the spouses cohabit. In the event of a divorce, the residence goes to dr. Wesley. All bank accounts, including joint accounts, revert to single accounts for dr. Wesley.” Blah, blah, blah. “No alimony or cash settlement in the event of a divorce.”

Chloe: Yeah, none of that should matter if you’re marrying my father for love, right? Dad, I’m sorry I’m doing this to you on your wedding day, but you have to know before you get married.

[Tense music]

Leo: There, satisfied? My asthma felt anything but normal.

Chloe: You signed it.

Leo: This amazing hunk of man is the love of my life. So there’s no reason not to sign some silly piece of paper. We are going to be husband and husband from now until eternity, prenup be damned.

Craig: Oh, yeah. Guess I should make it official then.

Leo: [Exhales] I know you have had your issues with me and my past. But I hope that this will finally convince you that my love for your father is real, profound, and fills me with joy. Maybe you’ll even give us your blessing, because it’s the only way he’s gonna be happy, and that’s all I want is your father’s happiness.

Chloe: Okay, I guess we want the same thing then. Leo stepped up, so I will too. If he makes you happy, then I’m happy, and that’s all that matters. You have my blessing. I will take this to justin to file, and I guess I will see you two at the wedding later.

Craig: [Breathes deeply] Thank you, sweetheart. It means more to me than you know.

Chloe: I love you.

Craig: Okay. All right. Are you upset with me? Hmm?

Bonnie: It’s simple. If you like a guy, you swipe right. If you don’t like him, swipe left. Guys do the same.

[Gasps] Ooh. How about that one?

Nancy: Too young.

Bonnie: Kay.

Nancy: Oh, too old.

Bonnie: Okay.

[Gasps] Doctor.

Nancy: No doctors.

Bonnie: Okay.

Nancy: Oh, he has a nice smile.

Bonnie: Oh, well, he has no hair.

Nancy: So what?

Bonnie: Well, you can’t show up at the wedding with just anybody. You gotta turn heads, sweetheart. Ooh. Ooh, ooh, ooh. I found one. “Recently back on the market” just like you. “Family-oriented” just like you.

[Gasps] “Loves to cook.” Do you love to cook?

Nancy: I like to eat.

Bonnie: [Laughs] Sounds like a match to me. Oh, and he is cuh-yute! Look.

Nancy: He is good-looking.

Bonnie: What do you think?

Nancy: Okay, I’m gonna do it.

Bonnie: Do it. Do it. Do it. Aah! [Laughs]

Abigail: So I was right. It was gwen who knocked me out that day.

Ava: Oh, and there is so much more.

Abigail: Tell me. What else did she do? Did it have something to do with my kidnapping? Was it something else? Are there other victims?

Ava: I will tell you everything that you wanna know in excruciating detail. But trask needs to hear it first and only after I get my immunity. Abigail. This is your chance. You want your sister to pay for her sins? Get me the deal and I will sing like a canary.

Abigail: I’ll be back.

Eric: I do believe in redemption.

Clyde: Yeah, so does your old man, which is why he hired me. I’m paying it back by trying to do a good job and earn an honest living.

Nicole: Do you even know what that means?

Clyde: That’s a good question. I mean, I get why some people won’t give me another chance, given some of the things I’ve done.

Nicole: Like trying to blow up an entire town?

Clyde: But there ain’t no use in looking at the past, is there? I mean, I’m all about looking forward, doing everything I can to be a better man. But hey, I didn’t mean to interrupt you two. I’ll just get on with my break. Enjoy yourselves. Good to see you again.

Nicole: [Scoffs] A better man? After everything he’s done and all the people he’s hurt, does he really expect anyone to believe that he’s changed or is capable of it? I mean– oh. You must think I’m a hypocrite. After all the things I’ve done and the people I’ve hurt.

Eric: No. But like clyde said, you know, it’s about… it’s about working harder. Moving forward. So you, uh… you were gonna tell me about you and rafe.

Nicole: [Sighs] Yeah. Plus, I can tell you everything. You know the worst about me.

Eric: And I still care about you, nicole. You know that, right?

Nicole: And I’m grateful. I am, eric.

Eric: Talk to me.

Nicole: Okay. Well, rafe and I have been friends for a long time, like you said. And he was there for me when you and I split. And then in october… we slept together.

[Inhales sharply] Only he was living with someone else, and that someone was ava vitali. And she found out and she tried to ruin rafe’s life. She framed him for a crime he didn’t commit, and then just yesterday, gabi found proof that ava actually set him up, and she’s been arrested.

Eric: So if ava’s no longer a threat to rafe or to you… meaning that there’s nothing to stop you from living happily ever after. Right? It’s my 5:52 woke-up-like-this migraine medicine.

Nicole: Happily ever after? Yeah, I guess so.

Eric: [Chuckles] You guess so?

Nicole: I mean, I’m just a little skeptical of that particular phrase for obvious reasons.

Eric: Yeah. Me too. Meaning–why don’t I just skip the “ever after” part and just ask… you’re happy, aren’t you?

Nicole: Yes. I’m happy.

Eric: I’m glad. Like I said, that’s all I want for you.

Nicole: I should get to work.

[Chuckles] So thank you for the coffee.

Eric: You’re welcome. It’s on the house.

Nicole: Thanks. It was good to see you.

Eric: It was good to see you too.

Nancy: Ooh! I don’t even know why i let you talk me into this. He’s probably already swiped left.

Bonnie: Where is that confidence we’ve been working on?

Nancy: I-it got up and went home ’cause it wants to curl up with a good book. Oh, you know what? He probably didn’t even swipe left. You know what he did? He’s probably just ignored it, which is even more insulting–

Bonnie: You have to work on this attitude. Remember, you are strong, you are proud, and you are beautiful. And any man, including this one, would be proud to have you on his arm. You know what? Swipe another guy. In fact, swipe a dozen.

Nancy: I didn’t see anyone else that I was interested in.

[Phone beeps]

Bonnie: [Gasps] He swiped right. Honey, you got one on your first try! [Laughs] Oh, and he is cuh-yute!

[Laughs]

[Dramatic music]

Gabi: Well, I’m done. And so is ava. Nothing can save her now.

Ava: Sorry, gwen. I don’t really have any friends, and I do hate to lose you. But… it was you or me, so… what choice did I really have?

Abigail: Gwen?

Ridge: I can’t believe this. You could’ve died tonight.

Taylor: Yes. I…I was on the roof of the hospital, and–

Ridge: And she saved your life.

Taylor: Yeah. She did. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for sheila.

[Birds chirping]

Eric: [Sighs]

Quinn: You know, we didn’t have to come in to work today. Could’ve stayed home.

Eric: No, I wanted to come in to feel like we were doing something instead of just sitting around waiting.

[Sighs]

Quinn: Hey.

Eric: Thank god steffy’s regained consciousness.

Quinn: Yeah. Steffy and finn being shot– it’S…surreal.

Eric: Yeah. It’s hard to believe finn’s gone.

Quinn: [Sighs]

Eric: We just have to rally around steffy and the children. We have to do that. We have to help them get past this as a family. We’ve overcome so much before. We’ll overcome this, too.

Carter: Hey.

Zende: Hey. What’s up, man?

Carter: Thanks again for keeping me updated till I can get here.

Zende: Hey, man, we appreciate you holding down the fort at forrester with everything going on here.

[Cellphone chimes]

Carter: Uh, liam and hope stopped by the cafeteria. They wanna know if you want anything.

Zende: I’m good.

Paris: Yeah, me, too. I just–I can’t imagine how scared steffy and finn must have been. They didn’t deserve this, and ah–I just can’t believe finn is gone.

Carter: Can’t imagine what taylor and ridge are going through, seeing steffy in that hospital bed. They already lost one daughter. I just–I hate this is happening to them.

Zende: And to all of us. You’re not just a best friend to ridge. You’re like a brother to him. You’re a part of this family.

Carter: Yeah, you guys are like family to me, too.

Zende: Believe me, we know. Your love and loyalty is felt. Thank you for being a great friend to all of us.

Zende: Here.

Carter: Oh, thanks, man.

Zende: Yeah.

Carter: Paris took off?

Zende: Yeah, she didn’t want to, but she had to go meet up with her mom. I did get to speak to bridget, though.

Carter: Any updates?

Zende: Not yet. Steffy’s still resting.

Carter: That’s good.

Zende: Yeah. Yeah. Um…now’s probably not the right time.

Carter: For?

Zende: I wanted to talk to you, maybe get some advice.

Carter: Okay. Well, we have some time before we should head back to the office. You know, steffy wouldn’t want us holding vigil when there’s work to be done.

Zende: Yeah.

Carter: What’s up?

Zende: Well, I know I told paris that we’d take things slow, and I have been dating other women.

Carter: Plural? Not just sequoyah?

Zende: Yeah, listen, I’ve been doing what I can to keep paris off of my mind, but I can’T. I’m in love with her. And this whole experience– it proves that life is too short. I’m ready to make paris my wife, and I hope that she’s ready, too. I…I know I can make her happy. I would treat her like a queen.

Carter: Yeah. Yeah, of course you would.

Zende: So? What do you think? I mean, you know paris really well.

Carter: Follow your heart. Propose to her.

Ridge: I’m grateful that you saved taylor’s life. I am, and I’m grateful that there was no more tragedy. But we have to focus on steffy now. She needs us. And what happened to you is horrible. You need to mourn your son, but what are you doing, jumping off a building? That’s not gonna bring finn back.

Baker: Unfortunately, nothing is going to bring him back. But I can and I will do everything in my power to make sure that the trash that shot finn and steffy is found and brought to justice.

Sheila: Excuse me.

Taylor: Sheila–

Sheila: No, it’s all right. I’m gonna be all right. You just talk to the deputy chief.

Woman over P.A.: Dr. Forrest, dial 118, please. Dr. Forrest, please dial 118.

Sheila: [Exhales deeply] I’m amber, I’ve lost 128 pounds with golo,

Zende: Hey, quinn.

Quinn: Hey, zende.

Zende: Granddad.

Ridge: Hi. Hi, son.

Zende: [Sighs]

Ridge: Any updates on steffy?

Zende: Just that she’s stable and still resting.

Quinn: How are ridge and taylor doing?

Zende: Staying strong. I don’t know how they’re doing it.

Eric: They’re forresters. That’s how they do it. Son, what’s up? How you feeling? Everything okay?

Zende: Yeah. Yeah, I’ve just been thinking about family and how important it is and to never let go of what makes you happy. I can’t wait anymore, granddad. I can’T.

Eric: Can’t wait for what?

Zende: Ask paris to be my wife.

Carter: [Sighs]

[Knock on door] Hey, uh, paris, I’m in the middle–

Paris: Don’t do that. I know you’ve been avoiding me.

Carter: You’re right. It sucks, but it’s the right thing to do for the both of us.

Paris: Why is that something you get to decide?

Carter: Because I’ve been down this road, and I know how it ends.

Paris: You think you–

Carter: Paris, stop. We’re not doing this. This is never gonna happen. I’m wrong for you. You should be with zende, not me.

Baker: Okay, let me know if anything goes down.

Ridge: New leads?

Baker: Well, not yet. I was just talking with our cyber team. The restaurant’s cameras have been down. The only other camera that might be able to help was on an atm, but somebody put a decal across it.

Ridge: So we’re nowhere closer to finding out who shot finn or steffy.

Baker: We’re on it. In the meantime, I understand that steffy’s regained consciousness? That’s what I’m here for. I’d like to speak with her.

Taylor: No, I don’t– I don’t think that’s gonna happen right now. She’s really in no position to be questioned.

Baker: Dr. Hayes, your concern about your daughter is understandable, but steffy is my only witness. Anything she says could be helpful.

Taylor: Right.

Ridge: We tried talking to her when she woke up.

Baker: What did she say?

Ridge: She was disoriented. She didn’t remember anything about the shooting. Not yet, anyway.

Steffy: You shot your son! You’re a monster!

[Sobs] You’re going to prison for the rest of your life.

Sheila: I didn’t even know he was here!

Steffy: Oh, you’re sick. You’re sick!

Deacon: Sheila. I came to check on you. You shouldn’t be alone.

Sheila: I deserve to be. Oh, somehow I really don’t think I am. After ever–everything that’s been happening and what I’ve been going through, something really amazing happened today, too.

Deacon: Amazing?

Sheila: I saved taylor’s life. (Nathan m) secondhand smoke

Eric: Well, I have to say, with everything that’s going on, it’s very nice to hear some good news for a change.

Zende: Thank you, granddad. And I know we’re young, but she makes me happy.

Eric: I can see the joy she brings to you.

Quinn: Okay, I don’t mean to be a downer here. I don’T. Uh, but are you sure that paris feels the same way? ‘Cause I remember her telling you that she wanted to keep things casual?

Zende: She did, but it’s a gut thing, you know? I feel it in my heart, I mean, I know that paris is my future.

Paris: So you’re saying that we can’t be together? That could never happen?

Carter: We can’T.

Paris: I thought you said you loved me. Was that true? Because if you love me, and I love you, why can’t we figure out a way to make it work? And if this is about my mother–

Carter: Yes, paris, of course this is about your mother. Her–her reaction is the same exact reaction everyone else will have if they found out. I’ve been forgiven for my involvement with quinn, but I’m pretty much on probation around here. That nice guy with the moral compass is gone to them, probably forever, and I won’t let the same thing happen to you.

Paris: Carter…

Carter: No! Look, paris, as much as I care about you, I can’t give you what zende can. I spoke to him. He loves you. He wants to make a life with you. Zende is your future.

Taylor: I can’t believe this is happening.

Ridge: Steffy’s gonna be fine.

Taylor: Yeah. I know. Just…seeing her in there like that, it just reminds me of phoebe. I can’t lose her.

Ridge: Oh, don’t do that. You’re not losing steffy. She’s way too stubborn to go anywhere.

Taylor: [Chuckles] You always know the right things to say.

Ridge: Mm. You know why, right?

Taylor: Mnh-mnh.

Ridge: I used to be married to this really good psychiatrist.

Taylor: Was she world-renowned?

Ridge: Ha ha! Yeah, I guess she was. Steffy’s gonna be okay. We’re all gonna be okay.

Taylor: My hearts breaks for li and jack… sheila.

Ridge: Sheila. So now that she’s gone, why don’t you tell me what happened between the two of you on the roof?

Taylor: Aah! No! Don’t drop me!

[Exhales deeply] Sheila. The same woman who… destroyed my life years ago saved it.

Deacon: Taylor almost fell off the roof?

Sheila: Not almost. She did. She could’ve died.

Deacon: [Gasps] This–this is just like– it’s such a head trip.

Sheila: Tell me about it.

Deacon: Wait a minute. What were you and taylor doing on top of the roof?

Sheila: That’s where she found me. I wanted to end my life, deacon. Go with simparica trio it’s triple protection made simple!

Paris: I wish you would stop pushing me towards zende.

Carter: That’s where you would be if this never happened. And yeah, you’re not ready for commitment with him, but you love zende, and he loves you. It would have only been a matter of time if I never interfered.

Paris: Interfered? We fell for each other.

Carter: And it was wrong. And I’m sorry, paris. What we shared, it felt wonderful, but it should have never happened. We can’t be together.

Paris: Everybody thinks they have a say in how I feel. Everyone wants to tell me which way to go–you, my mother. But I need to make one thing clear. I’m a grown woman. I don’t need to be protected by you or my mom. I make my own decisions.

Carter: Paris, I–

Paris: I’m not done. I make my own decisions, and I’m deciding you. I’d risk it. For you, I’d risk my job, my standing with the forrester family, if it means I get to be with you. You’re worth the risk, carter.

Carter: Well, it’s not worth the risk to me.

Paris: You don’t mean that.

Carter: I do. I won’t ruin your life.

Paris: [Scoffs]

Carter: Whatever this is between us, it’s over. Zende wants to be your husband. If he proposes, and he will, you should accept. Make a life with zende.

Paris: [Sobs]

Carter: I just want you to be happy.

Carter: [Exhales deeply]

[Door closes]

Quinn: Really? You and paris?

Ridge: So I could have lost you? Steffy and thomas could have lost their mother because of sheila?

Taylor: Sheila was shattered by finn’s death, and, ridge, I don’t know. I could see how much she was hurting, and when I went to go find her, I…she was– she was about to jump. I didn’t know what to do. So I just–I…I… I lunged towards her, and I–

Ridge: And you fell off the roof?

Taylor: Then–but then somehow sheila just grabbed me, and she–she pulled me back up.

Ridge: And you know what? I’m very grateful for that. But let’s not forget all the things she’s done to our family.

Taylor: Well, but…I’m– I’m not forgetting that this is A…pretty good start.

Ridge: How–how is that? No. The woman shot you. One good deed doesn’t erase all the evil she’s done. Don’t–don’t tell me you’re looking at her differently.

Deacon: You were really gonna jump?

[Sighs] Sheila, I can only imagine the kind of pain that you’re in. Finn was a great man. He was a great father. And he didn’t deserve to die, but neither do you. I just didn’t realize that you were in such a dark place. I know this sounds cliché, but it will get easier.

Sheila: Oh, would you just spare me? You have no idea what I’m going through. You know, everything I touch, everyone that I love, I hurt and I destroy. I never should have come back to L.A.

Deacon: Sheila, stop.

Sheila: If only I hadn’t come back to L.A.

Deacon: You can’t blame yourself. None of this was your fault.

Steffy: You’re going to prison for the rest of your life.

Sheila: Put it down now! No!

Ridge: Doc… sheila hasn’t changed.

Taylor: She saved my life, ridge.

Ridge: The only reason you were on that roof is because of her. Wherever this woman goes, chaos follows her, and she’s at her lowest right now. Makes her more dangerous. Trying to figure out what she’s gonna do to this family next.

Sheila: [Gasps]

Interview with Michelle Williams, Romeo Miller and Anthony Cupo

TV Interview!

Interview with Michelle Williams, Romeo Miller and Anthony Cupo of “Wrath” on Lifetime by Suzanne 3/23/22

This was a fun press conference that Lifetime held for this season’s Seven Deadly Sins movie series. The first one is “Wrath,” airing tonight, and then next week is “Greed” on April 23. The plot for this one is mostly like a standard Lifetime movie where the main character, Chastity (played by singer/actress Michelle Williams) meets a new handsome guy, Xavier (Anthony Cupo), and he turns out to be someone that you don’t want to date (no spoilers here!). There is an added religious element that you may or may not like. It’s not as religious as “Greed,” though. You might recall that Williams was one third of the hit R&B group Destiny’s Child, along with Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland. Beyoncé’s mom, Tina Knowles-Lawson, plays Sarah, Chastity’s mom, so that’s pretty cool. Rap star Romeo Miller plays Roger, Chastity’s former high school boyfriend. You may recognize Cupo from his acting career as he’s been in many things. He’s really the best actor in the group. It was great to speak with all of the main stars of the movie! Here is the video of my question, and we hope to have a transcript soon of the entire press chat. Don’t miss the movie tonight!

Saturday, April 16 at 8/7c

After single lawyer Chastity Jeffries (Michelle Williams) meets Xavier Collins (Antonio Cupo), he seems to be everything she is looking for in a partner—handsome, smart and a lawyer as well. As his affection turns to obsession, Chastity realizes that she has been swept up by Xavier’s passion and abandoned her principles. When Xavier’s jealousy and wrath lead to suspicious actions and dangerous threats, Chastity confides in her mother Sarah (Tina Knowles-Lawson) and turns to her former childhood boyfriend Roger Thompkins (Romeo Miller). But in the end, it is Chastity that will have to fight to save herself.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Ashland: I know it sounds mad. Just hear me out. We can start over. Like we talked about. And thanks to adam, ironically, we will have all the capital we need to start our next venture.

Victoria: You don’t understand —

Ashland: I do understand. Think about the life we could have. No suspicions. No judgment. No family rivalries. Just the two of us…and this crazy, perfect love that we have found together. You want that…every bit as much as I do. Don’t you?

Adam: Well, you made the right choice, locke, by accepting my offer. And just in time — the deadline was almost up.

Ashland: You have a bad habit of getting ahead of yourself. I have some terms and conditions.

Adam: Well, you’re not in a place to negotiate. When I said you were making the right choice, I meant the only choice that is available to you. And after what you’ve done, you need to accept this deal or you need to suffer the consequences.

Ashland: And what consequences would those be?

Adam: My family will destroy you and your reputation in a way that you can’t come back from. So I will be the one presenting the terms.

Mariah: So we have one goal for today, one singular mission, and that is to find inspiration for our wedding outfits.

Tessa: Well, when I called her, our fabulous designer chelsea, she gave me a list of thrift stores that we could go to and check out. She told me that we should try on, like, a bunch of different things so that we can bring some examples of things that we like — different colors, fabrics, styles.

Mariah: Colors? I mean, what are we thinking?

Tessa: I don’t know, white?Ou thinking?

Mariah: Yeah. I mean, we should have a few nods to tradition, right?

Tessa: Matching white jumpsuits?

Mariah: Well, I think that matching couples’ outfits are more of a halloween tradition, less of a wedding tradition.

Tessa: Alright, wise guy. But we’re still doing ’70s glam?

Mariah: You are correct.

Tessa: So keep an open mind.

Mariah: Oh, I’m open to anything and everything, so let’s go find our dream outfits.

Sally: Getting takeout before a work session, too?

Lily: Yeah.

Sally: Being in the c suite means a lot more meals at your desk, am I right?

Lily: Uh, I guess it does.

Sally: Listen, I don’t blame you for giving me the cold shoulder. What I did with the wig and the disguise and keeping an eye on billy, it was…questionable. But I’m hoping that we can get past it.

Lily: Keeping an eye on billy?

[ Chuckles ] Is that what you call it?

Sally: What would you call it?

Lily: Uh, I don’t know, um, stalking, entrapment. Should I go on?

Billy: [ Sighs ] Just talk. Say it. Say anything. Can’t be that hard. Just say what’s on your mind. Of course, you can’t say that. Probably can’t say that either.

[ Sighs ] Or maybe you should talk about that.

[ Sighs ]

Nick: Hey, billy. What’s up?

Billy: Hey, listen, I can’t stop thinking about victoria and worrying whether she’s gonna let ashland get through to her with all his manipulations again. So I’m thinking I need to talk to her one last time and try to get her to see the light. What do you think?

Nick: No, don’t do that, alright? Stay out of it. It’s complicated enough.

Billy: Why do you say that?

Nick: Just let the family handle it, okay? We’re working on a way to get ashland out of our lives.

Billy: And what is it?

Nick: I promise you, I will fill you in at some point, but trust me when I say this — I have no intention of letting ashland get away with what he’s done to my sister.

Frank is a fan of fast.

He’s a fast talker.

Lily: Look, I know that victoria is in a terrible position and that it’s stirring up these protective feelings in you again. But maybe instead of allowing yourself to get drawn into it, maybe you use this opportunity to try and contain it, you know, whether that’s through your podcast, right, like how you did with delia. Or — I don’t know — maybe in your own head.

Billy: I’ve been thinking a lot about the abuse of power and the collateral damage that it causes. It makes me so angry when I see it. And I understand that might sound ironic coming from me, being an abbott, because I have been afforded many privileges in life. And some would say that I have abused those privileges in the past. All I can say is that I have worked very hard to not be that person anymore.

[ Sighs ] But maybe that’s why it sickens me when I see it. Because it’s like a mirror reflecting all my wrongs in the past, but because I have been on the other side, it makes me want to fight to protect the victims of power. It’s like a veil has been lifted. I get enraged when I see someone with privilege use that power to grab more and more and more when they have plenty of money, a successful career, a loving wife. I get enraged on behalf of the victims. And it makes me want to do something about it.

Ashland: It’s perfect. When people walk through that door and look up at that portrait, they’re gonna see what I see — a strong, powerful beautiful woman watching over her empire. Victoria newman…building her legacy as the rightful leader of newman/locke.

Victoria: Thank you again so much for this incredible gift. Hanging in that place and what that means to me. How significant that is to me.

Ashland: I wanted to commemorate the merging of our companies and give you something special for our wedding. To me…that portrait represents a new beginning for both of us.

[ Knock on door ]

Nick: Can we talk?

Victoria: Now what?

Nick: I heard from mom. She said that adam went to ashland, offered him a whole lot of money to walk away from newman/locke. Is that true? Is ashland considering taking that deal?

Ashland: Okay. Let’s get down to brass tacks, then. What exactly do you and victor expect in return for this “generous” offer?

Adam: It’s clear and simple. You sign a legal agreement relinquishing all control of newman/locke. And you agree to an annulment of your marriage with victoria.

Ashland: An annulment, not a divorce?

Adam: Well, a divorce applies to a valid marriage. Given the way that you fraudulently worked your way into her life, your union was never legally considered a marriage, so it would be annulled. Now, once you’ve signed all the necessary paperwork, we will wire money into an account that you give us.

Ashland: Why would I expect you to make good on that?

Adam: Why wouldn’t I? It’s in my best interests that you get the money you need to disappear.

Ashland: Yeah, well, if that’s the case, then why don’t we do it this way, okay? You wire the money first, and then I sign the agreement. For copd,

Victoria: Half a billion dollars to walk away from the company and from me.

Nick: [ Sighs ] Well, it’s the last part I’m concerned about. I’m sure you’re hurting. I just wanted to check on you.

Victoria: I’m fine. The last thing I need right now is your pity.

Nick: Come on, vick. It’s not pity. I’m worried about you.

Victoria: Do you know what’s really upsetting to me? Is that my family continues to doubt me and to intervene after I specifically told you all that I — I could handle this. I have been working really hard to convince ashland to set up adam, and then adam goes and he makes ashland an offer? He couldn’t bring himself to be a part of a plan that was mine — he had to make an end run around me with his own deal. And then he didn’t even bother to tell me about it. I mean, and now I’m playing catch-up, and it just makes everything harder.

Nick: Look, I get it. Adam’s motives are infuriating, but the blame for this whole thing falls on ashland. What he did was reprehensible. And we’re all grasping at straws trying to find a way to get this guy out of our lives, but more importantly, away from you.

Victoria: I had already come up with a solution. I didn’t need your input.

Nick: Who cares whose idea it is? If ashland is actually willing to sit down with adam and talk terms, then maybe adam’s plan is the best one we have.

Victoria: I can’t believe you’re siding with adam on this.

Nick: I’m not. We all want the same thing here, and that is to make locke disappear. And it sounds like offering him some money is the best thing we can do. So what do you think? Is he considering it? Is he wavering? Do I need to get involved in this?

Victoria: I don’t know what he’s gonna do.

Nick: Well, I’m telling you right now, I’m getting sick and tired of everyone treating ashland with kid gloves, trying to lure him in to these carefully laid-out plans. Well, I think all these plans are weak, and I think it’s time I get rid of this guy myself.

Victoria: Don’t you dare.

Adam: Okay, should we synchronize the paperwork and the payment to happen at the same time? 1, 2, 3, go?

Ashland: You can’t blame me for not trusting you.

Adam: I get it. But you are actually the one that has proven to be untrustworthy, okay? My family takes the greater risk by paying you first.

Ashland: We both have a lot at stake here.

Adam: Okay, okay, at this point, I don’t know — or frankly, I don’t care — what your motivations are, but I can tell you what ours are — we want you out. And my father has agreed that $500 million is more than a fair price to pay to achieve that. We have no reason to screw you over. And frankly, we don’t want to deal with whatever revenge plot you would concoct if we did. Because we know what you’re capable of. So all you have to do is take the half-a-billion-dollar leap of faith, you sign the agreement, and we’ll wire the money. It’s non-negotiable.

Lily: If you’ll excuse me.

Sally: I’ve learned that doing things on the up-and-up is the better path — the only path, really, now that I’m the coo of a major company. My behavior reflects on newman media, and I take that responsibility very seriously, so I have every intention of earning your respect and the respect of the other moguls in this town.

Lily: Look, that’s great, honestly. I really hope that’s true. But I think that as long as you’re partnered up with adam, you will find that people have a hard time taking you seriously.

Billy: I don’t think I can put that out there. I can’t say that.

[ Sighs ] Clearly ashland locke is on my mind. Although it did help me figure out why I feel so protective about victoria… I made a promise to not get involved in her personal life. So what now? There’s got to be something else to talk about because there’s so much going on. Starting with jack… and the pain that diane is about to wreak on his life. Let’s go there. People don’t need to have a lot of power to be manipulative. Some people have zero ability to tell the truth, to be honest. All they know is playing games. So how do you deal with someone who lies to you, who deceives you in such a massive, big way that it destroys lives? What do you do when that person weasels their way back into your life…only to do it all over again? Over and over and over again, causing you more pain and hurt. It’s not gonna take a genius to figure out who I’m talking about there. If I’m gonna talk like this, there’s only one solution. It’s my woke-up-like-this migraine medicine.

Lily: Well, I wish you luck with everything.

Sally: What can I do to make amends and wipe the slate clean? Because now that I’m the coo of newman media and you’re running chancellor, we’re going to be running in the same circles.

Lily: Yeah, I’m not so sure about that.

Sally: I heard that you’re going to be merging with hamilton-winters. Huge congrats on that. I’m just saying that who knows what kinds of business dealings we might be able to do in the future, and I would really like us to get along.

Lily: Look, getting along and being friends is something that has to be earned. Takes a level of trust, right? And I hope that you’re a better person than who you were when you first came into town. And I am always willing to give someone a second chance. But people have to show that they actually deserve it.

Sally: Challenge accepted. I do believe that one day we could be friends. And it’s something I would like to work towards.

Lily: Well, I’ll give you one thing, you definitely don’t lack nerve, that’s for sure. Maybe next time work on your subtlety.

Mariah: Oh, my gosh. You okay?

Tessa: Yep.

Mariah: Alright, um…

Tessa: Whew!

Mariah: Who do you think bought more?

Tessa: Let’s call it a tie.

Mariah: I call it a win for the both of us. Um…[ Sighs ]

Tessa: Okay, is it time for our fashion show? I cannot wait to see what you picked out.

Mariah: I mean, I really like the stuff I picked out for myself, but I’m kind of more excited at the stuff I picked out for you behind your back when you weren’t looking.

Tessa: [ Gasps ] You got stuff for me?

Mariah: I did. It’s just a few things that i thought you would look fantastic in, so I hope you’re not sick of trying on clothes because you’re gonna have a lot more outfit changes than me.

Tessa: Yeah, I’m not sure that’s true, because I picked out some stuff for you, too.

Mariah: You did? Oh, wow. Okay, um…so let’s dress each other, and then we can see how well we know each other’s style.

Victoria: Ashland is aware of how much my family hates him. But you need to stay out of it, nicholas. It’s just gonna rile you up. It’s not gonna accomplish anything.

Nick: Well, it is driving me nuts sitting around, doing nothing. And it’s not just because of everything ashland has done, but because of my concern for you. This whole situation has gotten completely out of control, and i know it’s taking its toll. I also know that the longer it takes us to get him out of our lives, the harder it is on you.

Victoria: I know, I know. I know you have my best interests at heart, but ashland is not gonna walk away from me and this company just because you confront him. In fact, if you personally attack him, it might have the opposite effect. He might just dig in deeper. And, yes, as furious as I am with adam for going off on his own and making this offer, we’re just gonna have to let it play out.

Nick: It’s very frustrating that you won’t let me help you get through this.

Victoria: It’s not your job to do that. I can get myself through this. Ashland can’t crush me. I’m stronger than you all think I am.

Nick: You think I don’t know that? Vick, you think I don’t know how strong you are? Anyone in the world would be overwhelmed by this. My concern is that ashland has dug himself in so deep with this family that we will never be able to get rid of him. Just the thought of him makes me want to strangle him.

Ashland: [ Exhales sharply ] Great. I see the newman brother are working overtime to protect their sister. When are you going to learn, nick, she does not need your interference? When I get a migraine,

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Sally: Got us some tapas.

Adam: [ Sighs ] I can’t even think about eating right now.

Sally: Why? What happened? Did you meet with ashland?

Adam: [ Sighs ] Mm-hmm. He wouldn’t commit to the deal. I laid out our terms — that he had to walk away and annul his marriage to victoria. And he was stone-faced and he was cool under pressure, but i swear I saw something in his eyes when I mentioned annulment. It was like that got under his skin more than the prospect of losing control of newman/locke.

Sally: Huh. Maybe he really does have feelings for victoria.

Adam: I don’t even know how that’s possible, given what he’s done. Besides, the annulment wasn’t even the sticking point. It seemed like he was gonna agree to the deal, and then we just got caught up arguing about the logistics — how is gonna shoot first. Was he gonna agree to it or are we gonna send the money? And then it just became this game of chicken.

Sally: Where’d you leave it?

Adam: He said he needed to find out one last thing before agreeing to it.

Sally: What was the “one last thing”?

Adam: I don’t know. But I bet it has something to do with victoria.

Victoria: I need to speak with ashland alone. Please.

Nick: You know, on top of everything that you have done, you’re tearing apart my sister’s relationship with this family, and you couldn’t care less. Is there not an ounce of decency inside of you?

Ashland: Don’t worry. You won’t have to deal with me much longer.

Nick: I better not.

Victoria: Well, that could’ve been much worse. You defused the situation.

Ashland: Are you okay? Did he upset you?

Victoria: That doesn’t matter. What did you tell adam?

Lily: Hello.

Billy: Hey.

Lily: I’m gonna need wine with my dinner.

Billy: Is that relaxation or aggravation?

Lily: Oh, the latter. Getting takeout should not be so stressful. I ran into sally at society, and apparently she wants to be my new best friend.

Billy: Uh, yeah, that’s, uh —

Lily: Not happening at all.

Billy: Good.

Lily: Anyway, did you finish your latest podcast episode?

Billy: Kind of, yes. Something good came out of it, though. I figured out a way to turn my one podcast into two.

Lily: Wait, I’m sorry, i thought you were having a problem figuring out your next episode. Now you have an idea for two series?

Billy: Well, the first podcast about delia was, you know, all about me from my heart, and that felt amazing, but I also realized that the people that are listening, they know who I’m talking about.

Lily: Yeah, that’s probably true.

Billy: So I took some of your advice, and I started to unpack why I feel so protective about victoria, which led me to talk about the abuse of power, which inevitably led me to ashland locke. Then I started talking about emotional manipulation, which led me to diane and jack.

Lily: You think people are gonna piece it together when they find out that she’s alive?

Billy: Yes, I do. And the whole purpose of this podcast was to feel free to be able to say what was on my mind without feeling that I was going to expose myself or anyone i care about, to speak my mind without consequences.

Lily: So you’re gonna be like that late-night radio guy who gets the town all riled up?

Billy: Hey, maybe. I feel like the only way I can do that is by coming up with a persona, to do a podcast under a pseudonym.

Tessa: Are you ready?

Mariah: I was born ready, babe.

Tessa: Okay, here I come.

Mariah: Wow!

[ Gasps ]

I like the way you drive your car

all around town like the cat you are

I like the way that you move your feet

Tessa: Ooh!

Swing your hips to the beat

oh, yeah

I like the way you sooth me

oh, yeah

[ Both sigh ]

Tessa: Ooh.

Mariah: Well, I am not sure that we found the perfect outfits, but —

Tessa: It was fun! And we found a ton of inspiration for our designer.

Mariah: Mm-hmm.

Tessa: [ Laughs ]

Mariah: But it doesn’t really matter what you wear, ’cause you’re gonna look gorgeous in anything.

Tessa: Right back at ya. Oh, this day, this theme — it’s gonna be so perfect.

[ Chuckles ]

This is the story of two homes.

Ashland: I can’t respond to adam and victor until I get an answer from you.

Victoria: An answer to what?

Ashland: To the question i asked you earlier. You never gave me a response. I don’t know if that was your intention, but I need an answer from you right now. Are you willing to walk away from all of this and start fresh? Because that’s the only way i will agree to their terms.

Victoria: And what are their terms?

Ashland: I cede control of newman/locke — which I’m willing to do, that’s fine — but they’re also insisting that we dissolve our marriage, that we get an annulment that acknowledges our marriage was based on a fraud.

Victoria: And you’re willing to admit that? That our love was nothing but a sham?

Ashland: No. Not our love. If in truth you love me as much as I love you. I’m willing to agree to all of it. Dissolve our marriage, get the annulment, cede control of the company. But my love for you, my feelings for you cannot be signed away and they cannot be bought for any amount of money, so the question remains. Do you love me?

Victoria: Yes, of course i love you. Of course I love you. And, yes, I would be willing to leave all of this behind for you.

Ashland: [ Sighs ] That’s all I needed to hear.

Lily: Wait, so now you think you have to hide your identity to do the podcast?

Billy: Well, that way, i could protect the people I care about, including you, and let’s face it — I’m the coo of chancellor. I can’t trash talk a bunch of people publicly without a bunch of lawsuits being thrown our way.

Lily: Yeah, I mean, look, i see your point, but I actually loved how personal and emotional your podcast about delia was.

Billy: Hey, believe me, I do too. And that’s why I think this can be good, right? I can still speak about the things that move me and have them focused on positive, life-affirming topics, and then when I want to…go at the bad actors of the world, I can do that. Speak freely under a pseudonym. I can speak truth to power without it affecting me and the people that I care about.

Lily: Well, it’s very bruce wayne and batman.

Billy: Yeah, billy abbott by day, the dark knight by night.

Lily: [ Chuckles ]

Billy: I can use a harmonizer to change my voice, make it unrecognizable. We can brand it like a completely different show. What do you think?

Lily: I mean, look, your passion is infectious, and i could see how being anonymous could open up the world for you, so why not? Might be fun, right?

Billy: Exactly, and I can say all sorts of things that billy abbott maybe couldn’t or shouldn’T.

Tessa: Alright. What about this — yay or nay?

Mariah: Nay.

Tessa: Okay.

Mariah: Uh, what about these two?

Tessa: Mm, I don’t know. Maybe a “maybe” pile?

Mariah: Do we have a maybe pile?

Tessa: Well, maybe we should start one.

Mariah: [ Chuckles ] Okay, well, let me ask you this — who do you think will be the first person to cry at the wedding?

Tessa: Oh, sharon, hands down.

Mariah: Yeah, agreed. She’s so excited to be helping plan this thing.

Tessa: Well, I am very grateful for all the help from your family with the planning, because it is gonna be one hell of a party.

Mariah: That it is. But only after the vows. Which, um, you know, have you given any thought to those?

Tessa: Oh, only every waking moment. Yeah.

Mariah: Oh, well, do you want to, you know, give me something?

Tessa: Oh, no, I am not saying a peep until may 13th.

Mariah: Great, now you’re making me even more nervous.

Tessa: Why?

Mariah: Because you’re a songwriter! It’s literally what you do. You turn words into beautiful lyrics. Your vows are gonna be so much better than mine.

Tessa: Stop that. Every time you speak from the heart, it is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard.

Mariah: Thank you. I just can’t believe all of this is happening, you know? The love between us, I mean, the love around us is just gonna make the most amazing day.

Tessa: I mean, not that we need a wedding to confirm our love or to know that we’re forever.

Mariah: Yeah, but still. I am very excited that we get to share our joy with all the people that we love. For copd,

Tessa: Mm. You know, I was thinking… with all the wedding planning, we haven’t really focused on the adoption at all. Is that bothering you?

Mariah: Yeah, I realized that when I saw the adoption paperwork under the piles of the lists for the wedding.

Tessa: [ Chuckles ]

Mariah: I still want to move forward with it. What about you?

Tessa: Oh. Hey, yes, of course. I want to bring a child into this family, 100%.

Mariah: Well, I think we have to face the fact that adopting and having a wedding at the same time was maybe a little bit too much. I just don’t know if I can do home study and lawyers and all the paperwork right now, you know? And I’m afraid a social worker would — would see that and think that we weren’t serious, when we are. It’s just…

Tessa: Yeah, no, I totally understand. We are on the same page. A month or two delay after we get married, I think, will only make us stronger candidates as parents. And I do have a lot of shows scheduled, which might make things a little tricky.

Mariah: Well, we will work around your schedule. And I promise I will take care of anything that I can while my wife is gone.

Tessa: I can handle some things from the road.

Mariah: So we’re agreed? We still want to move forward with a family?

Tessa: This is gonna be the best year of our lives.

Billy: Hello. This is “not billy abbott.” Geez. Of the lollipop gang. Let’s try this one. This is also “not billy abbott.” But clearly a baritone, probably a super villain.

[ Sighs ] Okay. Hello, this — whoa.

[ Chuckles ] This your local cable company, press one for billing. Ah. Hello? This is “not billy abbott.” Okay. I like that. That sounds interesting, and it doesn’t sound like me. Let’s try this one. Let’s talk about power. Everybody wants it. How much is too much? Then there’s that age-old question — does absolute power corrupt absolutely? Are those who crave power doomed to leave victims in their wake?

Ashland: Adam, it’s me. Have the paperwork drawn up.

Billy: Can the powerful who have been corrupted be redeemed?

Adam: Ashland’s taking the deal.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Billy: Is it possible to have power, to have everything you could want, and live a life with an open, vulnerable heart? Or will you only be destroyed?

Next week on “the young and the restless”…

Sharon: Of course I’m okay with rey going to chicago with you and connor. Why wouldn’t I be?

[ Knock on door ]

Adam: We’ve been expecting you.

Victoria: [ Screams ]

Nikki: Victoria?! Victoria?!

[ Water running ]

[ Cellphone ringing in distance ]

[ Sighs lightly ]

[ Metal squeaks ]

[ Sighing lightly ]

[ Ringing continues ]

Chase: [ Breathing heavily ] I know. I know. I’m — I’m on my way. Hey, I’m the one doing you a favor, okay? Relax. I’ve got this covered.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Laura: Aiden. Hey. What you looking at?

Elizabeth: Hi. What are you doing here?

Finn: I was just, uh… [ Sighs ] Nowhere near your neighborhood, and I thought I’d stop by and say hi.

Elizabeth: -Get in here. [ Chuckles ]

Finn: -Okay. You know, uh, to be honest with you, it didn’t sit right with me that you talked to me into letting you stay here alone last night.

Elizabeth: Aww, that’s sweet you’re worried.

Finn: I’m not sweet, but I am worried about you.

Elizabeth: Okay. Well, I appreciate that you’re concerned, but jake and Aiden are safe at Laura’s and nothing happened last night. [ Sighs ]

Finn: You can’t possibly think that the threat is over.

Elizabeth: No. Somebody is going through an awful lot of trouble to get my attention, and it’s working. How can I ever feel at peace until we find out who’s behind this?

Sonny: Once people learn that I don’t — I’m not the owner, then, uh, Charlie’s is now going to be targeted. You know what I’m saying? But it’s better to be safe than sorry. The most important thing is that Phyllis wasn’t here when it happened. Everything’s gonna be okay. Right?

Carly: Well, seems we agree on that. When was the last time that happened?

Alexis: Ah, Nina, thank you for coming.

Nina: Of course. It’s not every day that the editor-in-chief of the town’s hottest newspaper wants to speak with you in private. Alexis. This is all off the record, I’m assuming?

Alexis: Yes, as long as it extends in both directions. Please, come in. I mean, Crimson has done a number of journalistic pieces over the years.

Nina: Now I’m definitely intrigued. What’s all this about?

Willow: Nina completely omitted that she’d been with Sonny.

Smoltz: Been with him sexually?

Willow: Yes. And the next time Nina approached me, I confronted her. She insisted she hadn’t done anything wrong, and she was upset when I told her she couldn’t see Wiley.

Michael: And a few days later, she filed the petition for visitation.

Smoltz: Okay. Thanks.

[ Beeps ]

Smoltz: That’s all I need for now. Uh, I’ll contact you if I have any follow-up questions.

Michael: Look, it’s, uh… [Sighs] It’s important that the first segment of this feature is published before the visitation hearing.

Willow: We understand that judges are supposed to be impartial.

Michael: Still, if a story’s blowing up on people’s social media, it could get traction in the court of public opinion.

Smoltz: I’m on it. But just to be up front, I have to reach out to Ms. Reeves for her side of the story. So if there’s anything you haven’t told me yet, now would be the time. If there’s dirty laundry, I will find it.

Harmony: Yes, I’m still planning on meeting you at rana point, 8:00 P.M.

Brendan: Change in plans. I’m leaving Port Charles earlier than anticipated. We need to meet now.

Harmony: [ Sighs ] Fine.

Brendan: That was easier than I thought.

Harmony: What can I say? You have the upper hand. We both know that.

Good. Give me the money, and you’ll never hear from me again.

Harmony: Yes. That’s what I’m hoping for.

Finn: I really should have stayed here with you.

Elizabeth: You have to prioritize taking care of Violet, and we’ve already just discussed that she shouldn’t be here. And besides, if this person is motivated to do these things because they think I’m [Sighs] Forgetting about Franco, then having you here, it could make things worse.

Finn: You can’t keep going like this. When was the last time you had a full night’s sleep? You were probably looking over your shoulder the whole night.

Elizabeth: [ Chuckles ] I wasn’t alone. Cameron was with me.

Finn: Yeah, but Cam’s in college, and he’s got a girlfriend. He may not be here every night. So if you’re not gonna leave and you won’t let me stay here with you, I was going to suggest a — a possible solution to keep you safe. I was thinking —

[ Doorbell rings ]

Finn: That might be the, uh, possible solution right now.

Elizabeth: Mm.

Finn: [ Sighs ]

Chase: Hi, Elizabeth. I am so sorry I’m late.

Aiden: This? It’s just something stupid my friend sent me.

Laura: Can I see?

[ Bell ringing in distance ]

Laura: The Ouija board. [ Laughing ]

Aiden: Grandma, you know what those are?

Laura: Oh, sure. Yeah. When I was your age, we used to have slumber parties, and then we’d hold a séance and use the Ouija board to contact the dead.

Aiden: Wait. You talked to dead people?

Laura: No, no, not at all. I-it’s — it’s pretend. It’s completely pretend. I-I-it’s actually — you know what it is? It’s a little game that people play. Um, clearly, one of my friends was pushing the pointer around the board to trick us all into believing that it was real. But it’s not. Not at all. Why are you so interested in the Ouija board?

Aiden: Someone broke in again? What if it’s Franco?

Aiden: Just something I saw on TV.

Willow: Our dirty laundry has already been made public.

Michael: We have nothing to hide. But Nina does.

Smoltz: Good. And just to reiterate, you both signed over the exclusive rights to your story to me. You’re not allowed to discuss this with any other outlet — meaning print, radio, TV, online — they’re all off the table. Unless, of course, you want to hire another team of attorneys.

Michael: We understand the terms.

Willow: [ Sighs ]

Smoltz: Great. Then I’ll be in touch. Well, we officially pulled the trigger. [ Sighs ] How are you feeling about all this?

Willow: I don’t love it, but I feel like I’m doing what needs to be done.

Michael: And I feel the same.

Willow: What’s my mom doing here? Mom?

Harmony: Oh, hi, Willow.

Willow: What brings you to the Metro Court? And where are you off to in such a hurry?

Alexis: Can I ask you about your… well, about the nature of your relationship with Harmony?

Nina: Oh, we don’t really have a relationship, Alexis. I mean, I did recently talk to her about speaking up for me with Willow, because I was trying to avoid a court proceeding to get visitation rights with Wiley. But that’s it. You and Harmony — you’re friends, right?

Alexis: Uh, we forged a friendship in — in Spring Ridge. Harmony confided in me that you used her to get Michael and Willow to back down.

Nina: Uh. Alexis, I did not use her. I mean, I had a conversation with her, grandmother to grandmother.

Alexis: I-I don’t want to get bogged down in the weeds about that. When Harmony went to clear the air with Carly, she said that she went to bat for you, that she owes you something. Uh, do you have — do you know why she feels that she owes you something?

Nina: I have no idea what she is talking about. I mean, I’m not holding anything over her head, if that’s what you’re implying. I mean, I would think that she would have some sympathy for my situation because she’s also Wiley’s grandmother.

Alexis: True. I don’t know. Maybe there’s something more to it than that.

Sonny: Can you wait outside? Check on everything from there?

Frank: Yes, sir, Mr. Corinthos.

Sonny: Alright.

Frank: Mrs. Corinthos.

Carly: Well, I heard about the robbery attempt last night.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Carly: I just wanted to… come by and make sure everyone’s okay.

Sonny: Yeah. Good thing Phyllis wasn’t here w-when it happened.

Carly: What about Nina? I don’t want to be caught off guard, so, um, is this something I need to worry about?

Sonny: What do you mean?

Carly: Is this a sign that your enemies are smelling blood in the water?

Elizabeth: Uh, Chase. What’s all this?

Chase: You didn’t tell her about this?

Finn: Your timing stinks. I was just about to when the doorbell rang.

Chace: Nope, I’m out. Ambushing Elizabeth with this is a horrible idea.

Elizabeth: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What is a horrible idea?

Finn: I knew if I asked, you’d just refuse.

Elizabeth: Oh, well, that is an awful communication strategy.

Chase: My brother’s people skills leave a lot to be desired.

Finn: As a reminder, I saved your life. You think that’d buy me at least a year’s worth of slack.

Chase: I agreed to six months, so your coupon has expired.

Elizabeth: Will someone just tell me what’s going on?

Finn: Okay, look, as you know, Chase is a — is — is a cop, alright? But he’s been suspended, so he needs to keep busy. And you could use some security, so I thought maybe he could stay here a few days just to keep an eye on things.

Elizabeth: Dante and Jordan are sending patrol cars to check on the house. And no offense, but I don’t need a babysitter.

Finn: Mnh.

Chase: And that’s not why I’d be here. I can help you find out who’s been trying to scare your family for months… and put a stop to it.

Laura: Look, I know this is a change in your routine, but I promise you, we’re going to have fun. You know what? I’m gonna give you run of the kitchen. You can make Grandpa Kevin any dessert you want, ’cause you know he’s got a sweet tooth. [ Laughs ]

Lucy: [ Laughs ] Oh, that doc. You know, some things never change.

Laura: Lucy, hey. Hi. Congratulations on deception’s IPO.

Lucy: Oh!

Laura: It’s amazing.

Lucy: T-thank you. T-thank you. Thank you. Uh. Hello there. [ Laughs ] Listen, uh, it’s just… it’s just so crazy. I-I can’t get over it. I mean, I-I knew the company was good. I had high hopes, but I just never thought the universe was going to grant me all of this.

Laura: I know.

Lucy: [ Chuckles ]

Laura: I bet you’re glad now that our plans to use the Deception brand to launch a day spa didn’t work out all those years ago.

[ Both laugh ]

Lucy: Well, I appreciate your goodwill, but remember, I did offer to set some stock aside for you, because, you know, you were a former partner in the early 2000s.

Laura: [ Sighs ] I appreciate your offer. I really do. But as the mayor, I think it’s best that I don’t have a vested interest in any of the local businesses, even one as successful as yours.

Lucy: It is. It is. I know.

Laura: [ Laughs ]

Lucy: This is just crazy. I-it’s — it’s so good. I — I’m getting all these congratulatory bouquets from all the men in my life — mac and scotty and Martin — n-n-not that Martin. You know, I don’t even talk to Martin. I mean, I talk too much, but I don’t talk to him right now —

Laura: Lucy. I know you’re still dating my brother.

Carly: What Nina did to you is common knowledge. You didn’t retaliate, and you didn’t punish her. Just the opposite — you protected her, and now you’re sleeping with her. So maybe it sent a message to the other families that you’re weak.

Sonny: Y-you’re overthinking it, is what you’re doing.

Carly: What are you talking about? Everyone knows that you own Charlie’s, Sonny. Who the hell would risk robbing the place? Was it one of the other families?

Sonny: No.

Carly: I mean, was it Selina Wu?

Sonny: It’s not — it’s not the Wus. Selina and I have an understanding. As far as the robbery, the five families are now two, so there’s going to be a lot of wannabes who are gonna try to make a name for themselves.

Carly: Doesn’t help that Jason’s gone and he’s about to be declared legally dead.

Sonny: Well, let me make you feel a little better about that. Brick is gonna be taking over for Jason.

Carly: I don’t want to know. I don’t want to know. Because I’m no longer your wife, and I don’t want that responsibility.

Chad: So I assume, since you’re still in salem, you took victor took up on his offer and you’re the new ceo of titan.

Sonny: Actually, I haven’t talked to will about it yet.

Chad: Are you afraid to tell him?

Sonny: No. No. Our babysitter’s at this vortex retreat in sedona, so will’s going at it solo with ari, and he’s got deadlines, so– no, I just don’t want to drop it all on him over a zoom call.

Chad: Well, then, why don’t you go home and tell him?

Sonny: Because there’s something I have to take care of here first.

Chad: What?

Sonny: Leo.

Chad: Leo? Sonny, come on. Have we not spent enough time and energy on– on leo?

Sonny: No, not enough. Not until leo stark’s life is as screwed up as he made mine. Only then will it be enough.

Gwen: Oh, my god, matty, that’s wonderful. You’re the best.

Leo: How true, how true. So I will see you soon, but I must fly. I have a million things to do, and god knows I knows at least two hours power napping before tonight.

Gwen: For goodness sake, we’re getting married. We’re not going clubbing.

Leo: The two are not mutually exclusive. Cheers, my love.

Gwen: Cheerio.

[Phone beeps]

Xander: What was all that about?

Gwen: [Sighs] That was my dear friend, matty. Guess what. He’s rented out the horton town square for the wedding.

Xander: No way.

Gwen: Yeah.

Xander: No, you must have to book that months in advance.

Gwen: Apparently there was some sort of a cancellation. I don’t know. Whatever. I mean, matty’s somewhat of a magician when it comes to event planning.

Xander: Can’t wait to meet this guy.

Gwen: Oh, you are absolutely going to love him. And I guess it means that you seeing me on our wedding day hasn’t brought us any bad luck.

Xander: Guess not.

Gwen: So, tonight, we will get married in the horton holy of holies, and we’ll start living the rest of our lives happily ever after.

[Chuckles]

Leo: Well, well, well. If it isn’t salem’s own marquise de merteuil.

Abigail: What are you talking about?

Leo: I’m talking about a conniving, back-stabbing little… word I refuse to use.

Abigail: I gotta go.

Leo: Not until you and i have a little tete-a-tete. Since I will be making my home here in salem, and as you and I will be co-salemites, I think we need to set some ground rules, and now is as good a time as any.

Jake: Okay. Here I am, awake.

[Sighs] And now I will try to get up.

[Groans] Nothing to fear but fear itself, right? All right.

[Grunts]

[Exhales heavily] The pain is gone.

[Groans] And the pain is back. Ava? Ava, where the hell are you?

[Groans] I need your help. Ava? Where the hell did she go?

[Alarm ringing]

[Phone beeps]

Nicole: Guess we have to get up and work.

Rafe: We could sleep for, like, five more minutes.

Nicole: Or, alternatively, we could, um…

Rafe: Oh, good morning.

Both: [Chuckle]

[Door crashes open]

Both: [Gasp]

Nicole: Oh. [Gasps] Ava, what are you doing in our bedroom?

Ava: Formerly known as our bedroom. You didn’t think that you were gonna get rid of me that easily and I was just gonna let this go, did you? I mean, my best friend is screwing my boyfriend behind my back, and somehow it’s my fault.

Nicole: Ava, what do you want with us?

Ava: Oh, I think you know. You know, my first attempt at revenge– it was too complicated. It was just too… too cerebral. And then I woke up this morning with the blinding realization that I just need to get back to my roots, you know? Keep things simple.

Nicole: No. Rafe…

Ava: And now you die.

[Dramatic music]

Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “days of our lives.”

[Soft orchestration]

Chad: Sonny, I love you like a brother. Your enemy is my enemy. But you cannot, cannot ask me to go after leo again.

Sonny: You won’t have to, okay? Because this time, we are taking a different approach.

Chad: You’re saying “we.” I heard you say “we.”

Sonny: I know you still want to be a part of this.

Chad: No, sonny, I don’t still want to be a part of this.

Sonny: Unfortunately, we don’t have that much time, okay? Nancy signed the divorce papers, so legally, craig is free, and he and leo are planning on getting married as soon as possible.

Chad: Check and mate.

Sonny: You know what the sad part is? Chloe’s seemingly decided there’s nothing else she can do about it.

Chad: Maybe because there’s nothing she or anyone else can do about it.

Sonny: But I’m not so sure about that. And neither is brady. See, he came to me last night with some very interesting information, information that I think could spell the end of the leo stark reign of terror.

Abigail: Why do we need ground rules, hmm? I say we just both stay as far away from each other as possible, and that suits me fine.

Leo: You know, it was right over there where you did your insipid little monologue about how your husband had the hots for me. Trust me, katharine cornell you are not, but you are conniving, manipulative, spiteful. So don’t play lady of the manor with me.

Abigail: Don’t you think you calling me manipulative and conniving is sort of a pot/kettle moment? Don’t you remember blackmailing sonny into marrying you?

Leo: See, that is what I am talking about. I am tired of the lot of you flinging my past in my face. It’s not like you all have lived blameless lives.

Abigail: I never said that I did!

Leo: Yeah, when I met your husband, you two were separated, you were living in boston. How would you have felt if someone took advantage of that situation and insinuated themselves into his bed?

Abigail: You did try to take advantage of that situation, only you didn’t insinuate anything. You actually crawled into his bed while he was asleep and then tried to take advantage of him.

Leo: What I tried to do does not matter because it didn’t work and he only has eyes for you, which is how I feel about craig and how he feels about me.

Abigail: Okay. So that’s your story, and you’re sticking to it?

Leo: It’s not a story, it’s a beautiful reality. And our joyous double wedding is going to be the happiest day of his previously drab, humdrum life.

Abigail: Double wedding?

Leo: Mm-hmm, I’m sharing my special day with my bff.

Abigail: You actually have a friend?

Leo: Yes, you snide bitch. Her name is gwen, and she’s fabulous.

Abigail: Her name is gwen?

Leo: Mm-hmm. Very welsh, kind of mystic. Though her last name doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue.

Abigail: Oh, it doesn’t happen to be “rizczech,” does it?

Leo: Yes. My god, I hope she takes his name.

Abigail: Okay. So you and gwen are bffs. You know, if you think about it, makes a sickening sort of sense.

Xander: Gwen, we can’t possibly get married today, can we? I mean, what about the cake, among many other things?

Gwen: Well, I already told you, I ordered one from sweet bits, and i told them no bloody filling.

Xander: Thought you liked filling.

Gwen: I meant–never mind.

Xander: What about the wedding invitations, flowers, all that kind of stuff?

Gwen: Well, matty’s already taken care of all of the arrangements. And I suppose the bright side of not really having friends is you don’t really have any guests to notify, so–

Xander: What about my tux?

Gwen: We’ll rent one.

Xander: Your dress?

Gwen: I’m on it.

Xander: What about your dad? I mean, he’s my best man, and I told him the wedding’s next week.

Gwen: I already spoke to him last night after you did, and he’s already booked a flight this morning. He’s on the plane as we speak.

Xander: Hmm. Well, I guess everything is ready.

Gwen: Except for maybe the groom. Xander, you’ve come up with about 16 different reasons not to get married. Are you getting cold feet, darling?

Rafe: Put the gun down, ava.

Ava: Oh, make me.

Nicole: Rafe!

[Gunshot]

[Gasping]

Rafe: What is it, honey?

Nicole: I, uh–it was, um– it was ava. She came in here with a gun, and she wanted to kill me.

Rafe: No, no. Hey, you just had a nightmare. It’s okay. Don’t worry, okay? Nobody is going to come barging in here, okay?

Nicole: Okay.

Rafe: Don’t worry.

Nicole: [Gasps]

Gabi: Oh, for god’s sake, don’t shoot! It’s my 3:10, no-exit-in-sight,

Rafe: What the hell are you doing?

Gabi: Your job for you. You’re so lucky that you have me an assistant. Nicole, I am so sorry for barging in like this. Okay, come on.

[Sighs]

Nicole: What are you doing, a deposition?

Gabi: Shh. You’re gonna want to hear this.

Ava: Once you say rafe hernandez planted this evidence on you, there is no way he can come back from this. He’s going down.

Gabi: Yeah.

Rafe: Oh, my god.

Gabi: Hard evidence that ava set you up. Rafael, what are you waiting for? Arrest her!

Jake: Where the hell you been?

Ava: I went to the store. You got a refrigerator full of beer and condiments, and you got, I don’t know, two tea bags in the cupboard.

Jake: I’m a bachelor. What can I say? You know, when I woke up and saw that you weren’t here, I was worried you were up to no good.

Ava: Oh, yeah? What did you think I was gonna do? Think I was up to killing– killing rafe and nicole? Eh. Don’t think it didn’t cross my mind. But, instead, I’ve decided to take my rage out on some eggs and make a nice frittata.

Jake: Hmm, actually sounds pretty good.

Ava: So you got a frittata pan?

Jake: I’ve got a microwave.

Ava: You got any pans at all?

Jake: I can probably dig one up for you, but I’m gonna need something from you first.

Ava: What’s that?

Jake: I need help up. I can’t move.

Ava: [Sighs] Come on.

Jake: [Groans] Easy. Yeah.

Sonny: Okay, so listen to this. Chloe and brady overheard leo on the phone, gloating about his victory. Sounded like he was talking to some, like, an old crony.

Chad: Okay.

Sonny: And the person that he was talking to was named, wait for it…

[Beats a drumroll] Jackie.

Chad: Jackie cox?

Sonny: Yes! Leo’s source who was supposed to lead will to the emerald.

Chad: The source that mysteriously went missing when we tried to track it down?

Sonny: Exactly! Now I’m starting to think she was staying out of things on purpose.

Chad: Do you think that she and leo were working all along on a plan to–to switch out the emerald?

Sonny: I’m not sure, but they were attached at the hip when they came to the apartment! They mentioned the reward money together, so maybe, if they were working together then, maybe they’re still working together now!

Chad: Working on what?

Sonny: I don’t know! I don’t know! But if leo’s trying to bilk craig out of his money, if this all some sort of scam, which of course it is, I would be willing to bet a metallic opera glove that jackie cox is in on it. And I also think she could be the key to getting craig to see the light.

Leo: So how do you know gwen?

Abigail: She is my half-sister.

Leo: Really? I find that hard to believe. Gwen’s fun.

Abigail: Oh, yeah, she’s a barrel of laughs. You know, when you get a second, ask her the very hilarious story of how she systematically tried to destroy my life. It’s a knee-slapper.

Leo: Well, knowing you as I do, I’m sure she had a very good reason.

Abigail: How do you know her?

Leo: Intimately, but not carnally. I charted our horoscopes once, and it was fated that we would meet and fall instantly, madly, deeply, and platonically in love.

Abigail: Okay. Allow me to be more concrete. Where did you meet her?

Leo: In philadelphia. My god, it was like running into cher at a tractor pull. There was me, her, amongst hordes and hordes of philly fans. I knew I loved her before I even saw her. From across the room, I heard that glorious accent say in this clarion voice, “you can call that a cheese steak, but that yellow mucus is not cheese and that piece of rubber is not steak.” We saved each other from drowning in a proletariat sea of mediocrity.

Abigail: Pity.

Leo: You know, I can read people, and I sense that you and gwen are not close.

Abigail: Boy, you’re uncanny.

Leo: Well, that’s fine by me. Means you won’t be coming to our weddings, won’t be raining on anyone’s parades.

Abigail: Oh, au contraire, cookie, I will be there with bells on. I’m the matron of honor.

[Tense music]

Xander: I’m not having second thoughts about marrying you. I am having second thoughts about getting married on the spur of the moment in an event planned by someone else in a double wedding with strangers.

Gwen: Matty’s not a stranger. He’s my friend, with a very rich fiancé. And since you and I can’t afford a yucky rubber chicken buffet dinner on our own–

Xander: I am sorry about that, I am. I do want you to have the wedding of your dreams, which you absolutely deserve.

Gwen: Xander, could we just talk about the elephant in the room here, please? Can you just tell me, is this about the wedding, or is this about sarah?

Xander: [Sighs] No. This is not about sarah. Maggie’s taking care of her now. She’s getting the best treatment in the world. And now it’s time for us to have our life. Our life together.

[Romantic music swells]

Medusa lived with a hideous curse.

Jake: [Sniffs] That–that was delicious.

Ava: Thanks. Okay, and you look like you’re trying to perform a levitation trick.

Jake: I kind of am.

[Groans]

Ava: Hey, okay, all right, you know what? Enough, enough. Tonight, I am in the air mattress. You’re taking the bed. I feel horrible that I did not insist on it last night.

Jake: And, what, have you wake up tomorrow morning feeling the way I feel right now? No way.

Ava: Well, see, that’s not going to be a problem. Because I’ve been taking yoga for years. I can touch my nose to my toes.

Jake: I bet that comes in handy.

Ava: Hmm, you know, maybe we should get you into a yoga class.

Jake: [Scoffs] Me, yoga? No freaking way.

Ava: What? You afraid of a little downward dog?

Jake: Oh, now that sounds a little–

Ava: Oh, come on, no, no, no. You get your little mind out of the gutter, no.

Both: [Laugh]

Jake: What I need is to get my ass out of this chair. Huh?

Ava: Okay. Looks like this is a case for emergency measures. All right, come on.

Jake: Go easy on me.

Ava: One, two…

Chad: So if– if jackie cox has information that can be used against leo, how do you propose we get it?

Sonny: It’s funny you ask. So I asked will for some professional advice, and he said, get this–

Chad: “Start with google.”

Sonny: Wait, how’d you know?

Chad: I’m also married to a superstar reporter, remember?

Sonny: Right. Okay, so let’s see. Um… jackie…

Chad: It says jackee. Start over.

Sonny: Right. Right. Okay, here we go. Uh, jackie cox. Oh, see, she has her own website. Um, it says here she’s based in new york. It should be easy to track her down.

Chad: She does stand out in a crowd, doesn’t she?

Sonny: And I could ask my uncle vic for his jet. I mean, now that he wants something from me, he’d be willing to give me the moon. We could be in and out of there in, like, a couple hours.

Chad: There you go with the whole “we” thing again.

Sonny: I need you to come with me, chad. I need my wingman.

Abigail: So you and craig are having a double wedding with gwen and xander.

Leo: I think it’s going to be mind-blowing.

Abigail: Has anyone ever told you how most salem weddings end up?

Gwen: Hi!

Leo: Hi.

Gwen: You know matty?

Abigail: Uh, I know him, and he was just telling me all about your very exciting double wedding.

Gwen: I know, I’m sorry. I was gonna phone you. Did he tell you that it’s tonight?

Abigail: [Laughs shortly] Uh, he did not, no.

Gwen: Yeah. Well, it is. I hope you’re free.

Abigail: I am. However, there happens to be one new little wrinkle. Leo here hates me.

Leo: Pas vrai! There is nobody I’d rather have there to witness my connubial bliss than you. Hey, where’s that handsome husband-to-be?

Abigail: Oh, he’s right behind you.

Xander: Gwen, I called, and your dad’s flight is right on time. What’s this sneaky little bastard doing back here?

Leo: [Gasps] You didn’t tell him?

Xander: Tell me what? Wait, what’s going on here?

Gwen: I’m not quite sure. Xander, this–this is my friend, my really good friend, matty cooper.

Xander: This isn’t matty cooper! This is leo stark!

Leo: One and the same. I have to say, it’s wonderful to see you again, looking fantastic as ever.

[Uncertain music]

Still struggling with ibs-c, mike knew he needed a plan.

Rafe: Okay, well, thanks, I’ll keep you posted.

[Phone beeps] Huh. Well, trask is on board with filing charges. Once the warrant goes through, we bring ava in.

Nicole: Did she ask any questions about the tape?

Rafe: Oh, yeah, she asked plenty of questions, and I pleaded ignorance.

Nicole: I’m surprised she actually wanted to do this. I mean, she’s the one who prosecuted that trumped-up case against you. She’s gonna look like an idiot when it comes out that ava played her.

Rafe: All the more reason that she wants to take ava down.

Nicole: Yeah.

Rafe: Hey. You want to take ava down, too, don’t you?

Nicole: Of course I do. I’m just still worried about it. You said that tape might not be admissible in court, and if we go after her and she wiggles out of it, she might be even more rabid than she already is.

Rafe: Doesn’t matter. It doesn’t ma–listen. Ava, when she’s still out there, she’s gonna keep making threats. She’s gonna keep giving you nightmares. That is no way for us to go through our lives now, is it? No. Now, listen to me. I am not gonna let her ruin what we have waited so long to find. Okay?

Nicole: Okay.

Both: [Chuckle]

Jake: [Groaning] Oh yeah, that’s the spot, that’s– do it harder. Harder! Give it to me. Baba booey, harder. Oh, yes.

Gabi: Hello? Anyone home? So, ava, I see you’re earning your keep.

[Awkward jazz music]

Chad: So you want me to drop everything, go to new york with you so we can maybe track someone down who maybe has information that–that– that maybe will bring down leo?

Sonny: I know it sounds crazy, but it would just take a couple hours.

Chad: No, look. Sonny, I–I know that this is personal to you, but I thought that we agreed that it wasn’t healthy to keep obsessing about leo like this.

Sonny: We didn’t agree, and I’m not obsessing!

Chad: No? You just said that chloe, craig’s daughter, has accepted the fact that craig and leo are getting married. And if craig wants to screw up his life, that’s his business.

Sonny: You’re wrong. Okay? It’s all of our business.

Gwen: You two know each other?

Xander: Could say that.

Leo: You’re doing the nasty with xander cook? I hate you.

Gwen: Why?

Leo: Okay, I don’t hate you. I’m just envious. I used to have the biggest crush on him. You still haunt the occasional dream, but now I only have eyes for craig.

Gwen: Oh, come on, you little sneak, you know you don’t have a chance with xander. He doesn’t play for your team, darling.

Leo: He almost did.

Gwen: What are you saying?

Leo: Oh, don’t worry, nothing happened.

Xander: If you’re quite done, you know, strolling down memory lane, you want us to have a double wedding with him?

Leo: Oh, and craig. There will be four of us.

Xander: Yeah, I don’t think so.

Abigail: I wish I had some popcorn.

Gwen: What?

Xander: You heard him. He was just, you know, coming on to me.

Leo: Even his vocabulary’s butch.

Gwen: Okay, look, so leo fancied you, what, years and years ago? He’s moved on; so have you. It is really that big of a deal?

Xander: Yes, gwen, it is a big deal. I’m not doing this.

Unleash the freshness…

Gabi: So much for just giving ava a place to stay.

Jake: Not that it’s any of your damn business, but I threw my back out.

Gabi: Doing what?

Jake: Sleeping.

Gabi: Oh, so that’s what you’re calling it now.

Jake: You know what, gabi? You’re lucky I’m telling you the truth, because if my back wasn’t killing me right now, I would take your interfering ass and throw it out on the curb, where it belongs. Who the hell do you think you are, barging into my place like this?

Gabi: Someone looking after your best interest. That woman there is poison.

Jake: My best interest, really? What, did you have my “best interest” in mind when you screwed me to the wall in dimera? You know what? Ava, call the cops. Tell them somebody broke into my apartment.

Gabi: The door was unlocked, okay? Actually, I’m just here as a courtesy call.

Ava: Oh, so this is ’cause you’re always so courteous and all, right?

Gabi: I just wanted to let you know that I’m not gonna interfere and cause any more trouble for the two of you.

Ava: So this is you not causing trouble?

Gabi: You’re right. You’re right! I overreacted when I saw you straddling him and him begging, but jake, listen, when I first found out that ava moved in here, I really did think that she was just doing it get under my skin, but I’ve decided to not let my hatred of her get the better of me.

Ava: Until you actually showed up here?

Gabi: No, no, I actually believe the explanation.

Jake: That’s new.

Gabi: Even if I didn’t, I wouldn’t intervene because you have your lives to live, and I’ve got mine.

Jake: What’s the catch?

Gabi: What do you mean? What–

Jake: Well, gabi, this is very unlike you, right? Playing it cool and all. It makes me think it’s a trick. We won’t see that the other shoe is about to drop.

Gabi: What other shoe would that possibly be?

[Pounding at door]

Rafe: Open up. Police.

[Pounding continues]

Jake: [Groans]

Sonny: You know what? You’re right. This isn’t your problem. You don’t really care about leo or this whole craig wesley fiasco. I’m sorry I bothered you.

Chad: Sonny. I don’t care about leo… but you’re my best friend. I care about you. So let’s go find ourselves a drag queen.

Sonny: [Laughs] Thank you. Look, I know it seems like I’m over the top about all this. I know, I know, but… if I know leo, and god help me, I know leo, he is champing at the bit to get craig’s ring on his finger, okay? And once that happens, it’s gonna be hell of a lot harder to get rid of him.

Gwen: Xander, are you saying that you’re not going through with the wedding?

Xander: No, I’m– I’m saying I’m not going to stand up at an altar with, or a bloody yoga stand, with this, this– god, I have so many pejoratives running through my head, I can’t even pick one.

Leo: Ooh, pejoratives. Been snuggling up to your thesaurus, have you?

Xander: Look, I don’t get it. Why are you so dead set on doing this today?

Gwen: God, you do have cold feet.

Xander: No, I don’T.

Abigail: You know, this looks like it’s gonna take a while, so why don’t you give me a call, let me know if the wedding’s on or off? I’m really fine either way.

Gwen: I’m sorry, look, I didn’t know that you had a beef with him.

Leo: Hmm. Interesting choice of words.

Xander: Just watch it, okay?

Leo: No, I’m not gonna watch it. Can we have a very brief reality check here? You were the one who led me on. You took advantage of my interest in getting to know you better to find out what leverage sonny had, which you then used toward your own nefarious ends. He drugged me, led me to believe we slept together, when in reality, he was down the hall, getting the colored lights going with lady sarah horton. You used me. I’m the one who shouldn’t be able to abide having you at my wedding. But having found my own true love, I have a newfound ability to forgive, forget, transcend.

Gwen: Look, xander, if leo can put what happened in the past in the past, I mean, can’t you too, for me?

Gabi: Oh, hi, rafe.

Rafe: Oh, fancy meeting you here.

Jake: What the hell’s going on here?

Ava: I think the other shoe is dropping.

Rafe: Yeah, you know, I could’ve sent an officer to do this for me, but I wanted to do it myself. Ava vitali. Yeah. You’re under arrest.

Ava: Oh yeah? For what? Wearing a mask in public?

Rafe: No, for the framing of– well, me actually.

[Dramatic music]

Looking to get back in your type 2 diabetes zone?

Sonny: Wait, no, no, no.

Abigail: Sonny, what’s up?

Sonny: Hey, I just came to ask chad for a little favor, you know?

Chad: He wants me to go to new york with him to see if we can get jackie cox to spill what she knows about leo.

Abigail: Really?

Chad: Yeah. You want to come with? It’ll only take a couple hours. Maybe you get a good story out of it.

Abigail: Oh, I don’t think I can do a story about leo stark, as I am now personally involved. And I got a lot to do before tonight, so–

Chad: Why, what’s tonight?

Abigail: Gwen and xander are getting married, and I am now the matron of honor, and sonny, brace yourself.

Sonny: Me? Why?

Abigail: It’s a double wedding between gwen and xander and leo and craig.

Sonny: Tonight?

Abigail: I know, it’s hard to believe, but leo and gwen are apparently bffs. Birds of a feather.

[Sighs]

Gwen: Xander, look. After all this time we’ve waited, I just want to be your wife.

Xander: Right, but is this really your idea of a dream wedding?

[Soft music]

Gwen: Yes. Yes, it is. Xander, as you know, I–I don’t really have many friends. And leo is the only person besides you who really knows me and actually still likes me.

Leo: I’m sorry. “Like” is too tepid a word. Je t’adore.

Gwen: Je t’aime assui, cheri. Yes, xander, this is my dream wedding. To be loud and raucous in the horton town square, just four people saying, “I don’t give a damn what anybody else thinks because we are in love, and we are going to be happy in spite of all of you.” Yes, that is my dream wedding.

Leo: The party will be loud and raucous. The vows will be solemn and incredibly moving.

Xander: Is this really want you want?

Gwen: It is really what I want.

Xander: Then let’s do it.

Gwen: [Chuckles]

Leo: Ugh, I could cry.

Chad: Double wedding?

Sonny: Talk about wretched excess.

Abigail: Xander looked like he’d been punched in the gut.

Sonny: Wait, I’m–I’m sorry, if leo and gwen are best friends, maybe she knows what he’s up to.

Abigail: I don’t know. She didn’t even know he was in town until yesterday. So, sorry, I wish I could go with you to new york, but I promised I’d stand up for her, and I think it’ll mean a lot to my dad.

Sonny: It’s tonight? Clock’s really ticking.

Abigail: I don’t know. Like I said, I was there when xander found out he was gonna be sharing his wedding day with leo, and he didn’t look happy about it. So I can’t say for sure that he’s gonna go along with it.

Sonny: Here’s hoping.

Jake: [Grunts] You just gonna stand there and gloat?

Gabi: Admit it. You tried to make me jealous by having ava move in here.

Jake: I was helping out a friend.

Gabi: Your old mob boss? She’s friends to no one.

Jake: Better friend than you are. Get out.

Gabi: Well, it looks like you got the whole bed to yourself tonight. Better watch that back of yours.

Jake: You’re gonna want to watch yours too.

Gabi: What is that supposed to mean?

Jake: When ava beats these charges, my “old mob boss” is gonna be pretty upset with you.

Trelegy for copd.

Abigail: Good luck, guys.

Sonny: Gross.

Abigail: And no three-somes, okay?

Chad: Oh, no, we’re just a couple of best friends looking for a drag queen.

Sonny: Shut up. Thank you so much.

Abigail: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: Oh. Can you do me a favor, okay? If there’s anything you can do to stall the wedding–

Abigail: I will do my best.

Sonny: Okay.

Abigail: But I think even if the fab four do tie the knot, or knots…

Chad: Ha, ha.

Abigail: Call me a pessimist, but I don’t think either one of those marriages is gonna last.

Sonny: I hope so. Come on.

Gwen: Right, well, we’d best get a move on, ’cause dad’s flight is landing soon. Actually, could you pick him up? ‘Cause I have a million things that I have to do.

Xander: Of course. Yeah, I’ll be right back. Hey, I’ll see you at the altar, “matty.”

Leo: It’s leo. Leo stark. My god, you are a lucky woman.

Gwen: I know. Don’t I know it? Right, well, I do have to go, because I really do have a million things to do, so… abinto, my darling.

Leo: Je t’adore.

Messenger: I just heard you say you’re leo stark?

Leo: That’s right.

Messenger: I was just on my way to the inn to deliver this.

Leo: What the hell is this?

Messenger: No idea.

[Tense music]

Leo: “In the matter of…” oh, my god. It can’t be. It is. It’s A… prenup.

Rafe: We do have ironclad evidence against you. So your man flipped, said you strong-armed him, and we got it all on tape.

Ava: I want my phone call.

Rafe: Fine.

Ava: Privacy, please.

Rafe: No problem. Less time I spend with you, the better.

[Phone rings]

[Uneasy music]

Gabi: To me. Nobody, not the cops, not five mob families have been able to do what I did without breaking a sweat. To taking down that mafia princess once and for all.

[Phone rings]

Abigail: Unknown number? Hello? Who is this?

Ava: It’s ava vitali.

Abigail: Ava? What do you want?

Ava: I have some information I think you might find quite interesting.

Nicole: Yeah, I’m gonna need those sales reports by this afternoon. Okay, thanks, andy. You’re a doll. Okay, bye. Excuse me, can I get a double espresso?

Eric: Coming right up.

Ridge: Do you remember anything about what happened that night?

Steffy: [ Groaning ]

Ridge: Do you remember the person that shot you?

Taylor: Honey, it’s okay if you can’t remember right now. The last thing your father and I want to do is cause you any more stress. We’re just– we’re just trying to figure out how you got here, baby. Can you remember anything that happened in il giardino?

Ridge: Anything? Anything at all?

[ Steffy groaning ] What are– I’m sorry, I can’T. What did you say? Who shot you?

Steffy: Ah… der. Ah– other.

Liam: Thank god steffy’s awake.

Paris: Yeah, you must be extremely relieved.

Liam: Oh. Beyond. I mean, it’s only one hurdle down, but, you know, it’s a big one.

Zende: I can’t even imagine, man. I’m so happy for my family.

Paris: Ah, especially ridge and taylor. They’ve been praying so hard.

Liam: Yeah, I mean, we– bridget did say that steffy’s condition is still serious, but regaining consciousness, that– that’s a big deal.

Hope: God, I really feel like there’s a real reason to hope now. And you can breathe a little easier. We all can.

Liam: Yeah. You know what’s funny? Is I’ve been so worried that this moment would never come, but in retrospect, it’s like, “oh, yeah, it’s steffy.” Like, of course she’s going to pull through.

Paris: Of course she is. She’s fierce. I mean, she wouldn’t have it any other way.

Hope: And she would never, ever leave kelly or hayes.

Zende: No, they need her too much right now.

Liam: All right, I just want scoop them up and squeeze them. I mean, I–I’m being realistic. I know steffy has a long ways to go, but, my god, she’s been given another chance, you know?

Hope: I love you too. Bye. Right, well, my mom is beyond thrilled, and she’d like to come to the hospital, but she, um, also wants to be respectful of this moment with ridge and his family.

Liam: Oh, yeah, I could see that. Well, steffy might be a little overwhelmed right now.

Zende: Yeah, let’s just be glad that they’re all in there and they’re getting to spend some time together.

Paris: Yeah. I wonder how much steffy is aware of what happened. Like, if she knows who shot her?

Ridge: Who shot you? Try to say it again, please.

Steffy: Ah… der.

Ridge: I don’t understand, I’m sorry.

Taylor: Okay, maybe we should just give her a minute, okay?

Ridge: No, see, she wants– she wants to say something. What is it? Honey, did you remember anything? Their face, maybe? You remember their face?

Thomas: Okay. Obviously, it hurts for her to talk, but maybe, maybe she could write it down?

Sheila: Clearly, she’s struggling. Thomas, you don’t want to do anything that’s gonna–

Ridge: Nobody asked your opinion.

Taylor: Okay, okay. She’s very fragile right now. We just need to give her a minute, okay?

Steffy: No… no.

Thomas: No, see? She wants to tell us something.

Ridge: Go ahead. Tell us. What do you– what do you know?

Steffy: Ot… her.

Ridge: I’m sor– what? I’m sorry.

Steffy: Need… water.

Taylor: Wat– water?

Thomas: She needs water. Yeah, okay.

Ridge: Yeah.

[ Water pouring ]

Thomas: Here you go, I got some water.

Taylor: Here you go. Can you hold it here, baby? Here you go. Here you go.

Ridge: Hey, take it easy.

Taylor: Okay.

Ridge: Anything? Do you know what happened? Do you– do you remember anything?

Unleash the freshness…

Zende: We are too. Okay, great. Yes. Spread the word. Thanks, carter, we’ll see you soon. Everyone at forrester is thrilled to hear the good news about steffy. Uh, any update while I was on the phone?

Liam: Uh, no. Oh, but maybe thomas knows. Hey.

Thomas: Hi, you guys are great for being here.

Paris: We’re just so worried about your sister. And– and carter’s on the way, too. How is– how is steffy doing?

Liam: She’s still conscious, right?

Thomas: Yeah, yeah, and she is a little out of it, though.

Hope: Well, I can imagine. She must be confused by everything that’s happening.

Thomas: Yeah.

Liam: Has she spoken yet?

Thomas: Well, yeah. I mean, she– she did ask for some water.

Hope: That’s great.

Liam: Hey.

Thomas: Yeah.

Paris: Okay. Yeah, that’s good. It might just take her a little while to get her bearings again.

Thomas: Yeah, they did say it could take some time.

Zende: How are your parents doing? I mean, this must be a huge weight off their shoulders.

Thomas: Yeah, they– they’ve been by her bedside this entire time.

Paris: I’m sure she could feel them. All that love from everyone surrounding her. Rallying for her.

Thomas: Yeah. I mean, she could definitely use as much positive energy as possible.

Hope: Well, I know I– bridget said she was still being closely monitored.

Liam: But they– but they’re saying that the worst of it is over, right?

Thomas: Yeah. I mean, she– she won the battle, but there’s a whole war, you know, so you just have to help her through it all and– and hope that there aren’t any more surprises.

Taylor: You just need to take it easy, sweetheart. I mean, you’re– you need to rest so your body can heal.

Ridge: Anything you want, anything we can get you?

Taylor: You know what might be great? You know those–those ice pops that she used to like?

Ridge: Oh, yeah. It would melt all over the back seat of the car, remember those? Purple ones.

Taylor: Yeah. Oh, honey. I mean, I’m sure your mind is going a million miles a minute right now, trying to process everything and all these questions being thrown at you. But the most important thing right now is for you just to– just relax, to– to breathe. Don’t push yourself, okay? The doctors are giving you medicine to– to keep you calm, but no opioids. Are you in any pain?

Steffy: Mm-mm.

Taylor: Okay. We’ll– we’re going to stay on top of that.

Ridge: That is vip treatment you’re getting from dr. Taylor hayes.

Taylor: You’re going to be fine, sweetheart. Your dad and I are making sure you get excellent care.

Bridget: How’s our patient?

Taylor: Oh, she’s– she’s tired, but she’s alert.

Bridget: Steffy? Hi, honey, it’s bridget. How are you feeling?

Steffy: Okay. Do you know why you’re here?

Steffy: Shot.

Bridget: That’s right. Listen to me. You are doing very, very well. I’m pleased with the progress you’re making.

Taylor: She’s really not saying much.

Bridget: It’s such a good sign, how responsive she is. It– it’s pretty much what I would expect at this stage in recovery.

Ridge: I asked her if she can recall anything of that night. She can’T.

Bridget: That– that’s not surprising.

Ridge: No?

Taylor: No, but, uh, I think maybe she might have repressed the traumatic memory.

Sheila: So, is– is there a chance that she’ll never remember what happened that night?

Bridget: She may not. This could also just be temporary. Uh, sounds and images might come back in grainy little snippets. But on the other hand, they might come back very vividly, just flooding her memory. It’s extremely hard to predict the situation, but I will order a– a neuro consult asap.

Taylor: No, I think it’s probably a good idea for us to give her a healthy amount of space.

Bridget: That’s smart. Her brain and her body is extremely fatigued.

Taylor: You know, if I know my daughter, and I do, she’s going to want justice. Whoever did this, she’s going to hold them accountable, but as her mother, right now, all I care about is that she’s awake. She– she’s back with us.

[ Ridge chuckling ] If your moderate to severe crohn’s disease

Thomas: Bottom line is, as of now, steffy is stable. She’s hanging in there.

Liam: I mean, I’m– I’m optimistic, obviously, but I’m also very aware of the 800 other things that could mess up her recovery.

Thomas: You and me both.

Paris: Yeah, I– I think we’re all feeling like that. Hopeful, but scared.

Thomas: But, you know, steffy would say, uh, to– to keep the positive energy. Right? Keep our chins up. That’s what she would tell us to do. Because you know what? There’s a long road ahead, but she can use it.

Paris: Well, we will do anything to help get her out of here.

Zende: And tell her that everyone at the office was celebrating when they heard she’d woken up.

Thomas: Ah, she’ll love to hear that.

Liam: So, did– I mean, does she have any recollection or memory of what happened, or who did this to her?

Thomas: I mean, my dad’s been asking her questions, trying to spark that memory, but she’s really groggy. As of now, steffy doesn’t remember anything.

Bridget: Her reflexes are good, her blood pressure’s stabilizing. I am going to order another infusion of antibiotics.

Taylor: So, steffy’s condition is improving?

Bridget: Well, all I can say is she’s stable at the moment. I know you all are very, very concerned. And I’m not saying that there won’t be complications or challenges in the future, but she’s responding so well to treatment.

Taylor: It’s wonderful. It’s wonderful.

Ridge: Thank you, bridget, for everything.

Taylor: Yes, thank you so much. Finn would be so happy to know that his wife is being cared for by such a great doctor.

Bridget: It’s my pleasure, my job. I– I’m just so grateful I could be here for her. I will keep you all updated.

Taylor: This is everything I’ve been waiting for!

Sheila: We, uh, shouldn’t get ahead of ourselves because steffy’s condition is still touch and go. But I’m so happy for you, taylor.

Taylor: Thank you. All these hours that we’ve been waiting here, just hoping and praying that she’s going to be okay.

Ridge: All right. I have to tell you something. I may have made a deal with the big guy upstairs, and there might be a price to pay, but I’ll do it gladly.

Taylor: Oh, ridge. We are so blessed. We– we really are. You know, I’ve been– I’ve been trying to stay positive, I– I really have, you know? But I– every hour that passed, I kept thinking. I don’t know. I got scared that maybe steffy wasn’t gonna wake up, that maybe we weren’t gonna see her again–

Ridge: No, no, she is, she’s here, right? She’s gonna be okay. I can feel it in my bones. How are we going to tell her about finn? What are we gonna say?

Ridge: We’ll just– we’ll have to be strong for her– we have to. We’ll just have to be there for her. Hey. Our hearts go out to you, and I hope you find peace and calm in… how you’re dealing with finn’s death, but, uh, it’s time for you to go.

Taylor: Hey–

Ridge: It’s family business.

Sheila: It’s just– I– I really thought that–

Taylor: Ridge. It’s okay. She can stay. Sheila is the grandmother of steffy’s child. She’s a part of us. She belongs here.

Frank is a fan of fast.

He’s a fast talker.

Liam: Uh, hi– hey. We were hoping we might get to see steffy for a minute.

Nurse: Sure. She’s asleep. Just press the call button if she needs anything.

Hope: Thank you.

Liam: Okay, yeah. Thanks. Hey, steffy. It’s liam.

Hope: And hope.

Liam: We, uh– we heard the good news. Just wanted to come see for ourselves, and, uh, look at that. You actually came back to us. You’re going to be back to your old self in no time.

Hope: And– and we know you’ve already been through so much already, and you’re probably exhausted. But, uh, zende and paris were here at the hospital and they want you to know that everyone from work is thinking about you and sending their love and– and so does my mom.

Liam: Yeah, um, yeah, I’m also– I’m sure you’re, uh– you’re gonna be thinking about the kids. So, I want you to know they’re great. They’re doing totally great. Nothing to worry about there. Kelly and hayes have been loved and cared for and they’re going to continue to be until you can get out of this bed and do it yourself, which is going to happen in no time. You’re going to be back on your feet. So, you just keep doing what you’re doing. You fight the good fight. Get better. Okay? All right.

Hope: You get your rest now.

Liam: Yeah.

Ridge: Wait. You’re saying she’s– she’s a part of us? She should stay? Is that– is that what–

Taylor: That’s what I’m saying.

Ridge: Huh.

Taylor: Yeah. Yeah, if you just let me explain–

Ridge: No, let me explain something. I don’t wanna be the bad guy here. She’s not part of our family.

Sheila: My son is dead–

Ridge: I know he’s dead! I know that. Finn was a good kid. We’re all going to mourn him. You– you can mourn him in your time, with your friends, your family, not ours. We need to focus on steffy. Everything we have is going to go towards her. And you know what? I don’t think she’d want you here.

Taylor: She– she would. She would, if she knew what just happened, ridge. Something you don’t know. I have– I have to tell him. Ridge, something– something happened, uh– sheila was in a very, very dark place. Finn’s death profoundly affected her.

Ridge: Of course, it has– I’m not saying it hasn’T.

Taylor: I was worried about sheila. Something was– was really wrong. So, I went to look for her. And I found her on the roof.

Ridge: You– you were gonna end your life, you were gonna jump? Really?

Sheila: I– I’m not proud to admit that.

Taylor: Something happened up there. Something happened up there, ridge, she– sheila saved my life.

Ridge: What does that– what does that mean, she saved your life?

Taylor: She saved my life.

Ridge: How?

Taylor: She was– I don’t– she was about to jump. She was about to jump off the ledge. And– and I rushed up to her. And I– I don’t know what happened, but I slipped and I fell off the roof. Don’t drop me! And I was– I was– I was literally dangling off– off the ledge. And I– I don’t know how she did it, but she… no, don’t drop me! She found the strength to grab my arm and pull me back up onto the roof. Sheila saved my life, ridge. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for her.

Sally: Well, I was going to tell you what I’ve been thinking about for the last couple of hours, but…

Adam: I have been thinking about the same thing.

Sally: I’ll bet. I mean, you could point your mind towards the project that you pitched to victor and got approved, but…

Adam: But…this.

Sally: This is a big deal.

Adam: Yeah, it is potentially my birthday and christmas and a stock invested in splitting all rolled into one. If only the phone would ring. I could be getting a call from ashland right now saying he accepts my offer. Or he’s rejecting it.

Sally: Anticipation could be exciting, depending on who you’re waiting with.

Adam: [ Chuckles ] I mean, ashland is a smart guy. He had to do the math and realize that my deal was his best offer. It’s the only way that he can escape the mayhem with his dignity and his reputation intact. Right?

Sally: Clean slate, full bank account, can’t lose. I mean, I would take the offer.

Adam: Well, then why isn’t he jumping on it?

Sally: Because he’s toying with you. That’s what he does. He’s played this game 100 times.

Adam: I was — was flying blind. I just — I was totally going on impulse when I offered to give him that money to walk away from newman/locke. Telling that I was representing the newman family? What the hell was I thinking?

Sally: You were thinking like a leader.

Adam: [ Sighs ] It felt like the right move to make at the time. But maybe I just gave him another card to play.

Victoria: You went behind my back, daddy, to bribe ashland into leaving me?

[ Scoffs ] I don’t know what part is more offensive.

Victor: [ Chuckles ] It seems an offer was made, right, ashland? And you’re kind of considering it seriously?

Ashland: I don’t know what other option I have at this point. I want this turmoil to end, for your sake.

Nikki: The best way to end it is to admit to your lies and leave of your own volition.

Ashland: Tell your errand boy, adam, I will meet him at the grand phoenix to discuss the terms.

[ Sighs ]

Victoria: Does somebody want to tell me what’s going on here? Why the hell did you two do that?

Nick: No signs of a fight. I guess it was okay to leave you and ashland in the same room.

Sharon: [ Sighs ] How is a person supposed to believe anything that man says after what he did to victoria? You know, he started talking about how he’s gonna exonerate himself and that he’s innocent of all charges.

Nick: Thought we said we weren’t gonna engage.

Sharon: Well, I had to say something. I wasn’t in any danger. There were witnesses. Then adam came in.

Nick: What’d they say to each other?

Sharon: I don’t know. I didn’t want to get involved, so I made up some excuse and i ducked into the back, but i popped my head out now and then and watched them talking.

Nick: How’d they seem, like enemies, friends? Was it loud? Was it not?

Sharon: Mm, they were too far away for me to hear.

Nick: Well, what about, like, body language? You pick up on anything?

Sharon: I don’t know, seemed serious. High-key. They went out into the patio, so they obviously wanted privacy.

Nick: Okay.

Sharon: It was intense. I mean, nothing hostile, but they were both determined and very focused, like whatever they were talking about, their lives depended on it.

Victor: I got to come clean with you. I’m not the one who offered ashland money.

Victoria: Adam just took it upon himself? Why didn’t you just tell him, “ashland, no, I did not authorize adam to offer him money to go away”?

Victor: I’m going to discuss many things with adam, but i would not contradict him to ashland. We need to work on this whole thing as a family, stick together, okay? However, it was kind of interesting to watch ashland’s reaction to the offer. He seemed kind of interested, didn’t he?

Victoria: Do not take that at face value. It was never gonna be that simple to get rid of him. He was testing you, just like you were testing him.

Nikki: If ashland was testing anybody, it was you.

Victoria: Oh, he was not, mother.

Nikki: Oh, yes, he was. He was watching you. Every time you moved or looked his way.

Victor: Well, he can sense that you’re torn. You know he’s trying to drive a wedge between you and our family.

Victoria: I am well aware of that. Look, maybe adam’s obnoxious interference will make it easier for me to pretend that I am completely fed up with adam and blame him for setting up ashland.

Victor: But you said that ashland doesn’t like your plan of planting false evidence against adam.

Victoria: I am not giving up. I’m gonna do everything that i can to get him out of our lives and out of this company. And I’m gonna do it without spending tens of millions of dollars. Wait a minute. How much did adam offer ashland?

Nikki: $500 million. Nothing like a weekend in the woods.

Victoria: Where the hell does adam get off making an offer like that? We had a plan. We all agreed.

Victor: I will be speaking with adam. I don’t know what he was thinking when he made this plan, but he’s gonna hear from me, okay? Having said that, it’s irrelevant because we’re all trying to get rid of this bastard.

Victoria: Yes, I know, by moving forward with my plan.

Victor: But your plan has not come to fruition.

Victoria: And adam doesn’t want it to. I warned you over and over again that he would do anything that he could to try to undermine me and to try to make me look bad. This is really incredible. It’s all your fault.

Victor: Oh, yeah, what did i do?

Victoria: You should have put a stop to it before it started by letting adam know that you expected his full cooperation.

Nikki: Alright, alright. Victoria, there is nothing stopping you from executing your plan if ashland doesn’t take the money.

Victoria: “If”? Of course he won’t take the money.

Victor: Oh, yeah? Why? Because he’s eternally in love with you?

Victoria: I think you’re missing my point. I am never going to fall for ashland’s lies again. I know his mind far better than you.

Victor: Well, then kindly educate us.

Victoria: He would never accept a bribe, and he never backs down from a fight.

Nikki: If he doesn’t want the money, then why did he agree to consider adam’s offer?

Victoria: I don’t know. Maybe it was a part of his plan.

Victor: Oh, yeah? Maybe he doesn’t have any plans. Maybe this is the best option left.

Victoria: Well, I guess time will tell which one of us is right.

Nick: You know, I guess it could’ve been a business meeting. Adam is the temporary ceo.

Sharon: Of newman/locke? How did that happen?

Nick: Yeah, it was dad’s idea. He thought if he put adam in that role, it might convince ashland and victoria to not go to italy and stay in town.

Sharon: Well, I guess that worked. They stuck around.

Nick: Yeah, but adam resented it so much, he refused to go along with victoria’s plan to oust ashland unless dad decided to keep him in the big chair.

Sharon: Wow, that just sounds so —

Nick: Self-serving? Like the old adam? Imagine that. I actually tried to talk to him about it, you know, just to remind him how much progress he’s made and to let him know that it would be a real mistake to use this situation with victoria to his advantage or to allow ambition or sibling rivalry to get the better of him.

Sharon: Do you think he listened to you?

Nick: I don’t know. It was worth a shot.

Sharon: How’s victoria handling all this?

Nick: It’s hard to say. I mean, she’s pretty distant. She’s not listening to us. We’re trying to get her to come up with a plan “b,” just in case plan “a” doesn’t work. You know, I don’t think ashland is buying this at all, but she’s just so scared and defensive.

Sharon: Well, of course she is. She just had her heart broken by a man who one swept her off her feet. She’s probably feeling used and exposed.

Nick: Unfortunately, she’s still in love with him.

Sharon: Oh, no.

Nick: But she also knows that she can’t trust him completely, so when you add it all up, there’s no way in telling where she’s headed with all this or what to expect. In fact, I don’t even think victoria knows at this point.

Sally: You need to find some way to let this go. You did what you could. Seized the moment. You took bold, decisive action.

Adam: [ Exhales sharply ] That could fail miserably.

Sally: If this thing with ashland doesn’t work out, you’re gonna come up with something else. And do you know why?

Adam: Tell me.

Sally: Because you’re brilliant and relentless — a combination that is sexy as hell.

Adam: Well, that’s probably why we get along so well.

Sally: I read your mind.

Adam: Oh, you don’t say.

Sally: Do you know what I’m thinking right now?

Adam: Something like this?

Victor: Son, we have some serious business to discuss.

Adam: [ Chuckles ] I’m steve, I lost 138 pounds in nine months on golo

Adam: [ Clears throat ] Well, I’d love to hear more about what you’re here to say, but sally stays. I’m sure this is about ashland, and she is up to speed on everything.

Victor: Is she also aware of the reckless move you made offering this criminal millions of dollars to get out of the company?

Adam: I mean, I’m the one who made the deal, so why did he run to you?

Victor: Because he doesn’t trust you because he knows you were lying when you said you had the backing of your family.

Adam: So what’d he say?

[ Clears throat ] Is he gonna take the deal?

Victor: What difference does it make what he says or said? You’re trying to buy some time, trying to figure out where the hell to get that amount of money from?

Adam: Come on, nobody has that kind of cash laying around.

Victor: This is your first move as an executive, as a temporary executive of newman/locke? What are you gonna do, draw the funds from newman/locke?

Adam: No, it wouldn’t be appropriate to use company funds for a personal family, matter.

Victor: Then where the hell were you gonna get the money from?

Adam: Victoria’s the one who brought ashland into this family, so she should be the one responsible for getting him out.

Victor: Your lack of sympathy for your sister is appalling. As a family, we don’t do this.

Sharon: I remember how worried nikki and victor were about victoria when she split with billy. After she was attacked. Nikki even asked me to help. I mean, I imagine in some ways this feels even worse for them.

Nick: Oh, yeah, they were all in on the wedding, and I was sent to the doghouse for even daring to doubt the guy.

Sharon: And now it’s all falling apart anyway.

Nick: The scary part is if it doesn’t fall apart completely and victoria tries to salvage her relationship with ashland.

Sharon: You mean if she chooses him over the entire family?

Nick: If she does that, it could cause a rift in the family that may never repair.

Sharon: Oh, nikki.

Nikki: Hi, sharon.

Sharon: You know what? Why don’t I get you your usual? Are you gonna stick around or do you want it to go?

Nikki: Make it to go, and we’ll play it by ear. Thank you.

Nick: What have I missed?

Nikki: You’re never gonna believe it.

Nick: Let me guess, something to do with adam.

Nikki: Oh, how did you know?

Nick: Sharon said she saw adam and ashland in here talking earlier, and from the looks of it, it was a pretty intense conversation.

Nikki: Apparently adam has decided that he’s going to handle this ashland situation all on his own.

Nick: Nobody asked for his help.

Nikki: No, no, we did not. However, he told ashland that the family had authorized him to make an offer of an ungodly amount of money to terminate his contract at newman/locke and to walk away from victoria.

Nick: Let me guess how ashland reacted — he went whining and crying to victoria, saying there was no amount of money that will ever replace her and that their love will last forever and ever.

Nikki: Actually, no, he went to your father first.

Nick: Why would he do that?

Nikki: To make sure it was a bona fide offer. It was the first your father heard of it, but he played along and pretended that the offer was authentic.

Nick: Are you telling me that ashland’s considering taking this deal from adam?

Nikki: I don’t know. Victoria says he’s just pretending to be interested.

Nick: Well, it’s probably hard for her to accept that she meant so little to him.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] She begged us to trust her to handle this, and god knows I am trying my best, but the more time she spends with him, the more opportunity he has to charm his way back into her heart.

Victoria: We should talk.

Ashland: I’ll do anything you want, but not here. We need privacy.

Victoria: That would be ideal, yes. I’ll grab us a suite.

Wait, oh, yes

Nick: $500 million?

Nikki: Can you believe that?

Nick: It’s the exact figure that victoria, abby, and I won in that lawsuit with dad.

Nikki: Coincidence?

Nick: Doesn’t feel like it.

Nikki: Have you ever heard of a golden parachute that large for a ceo that has barely spent any time in that position? Now, mind you, adam is asking him to do more than just walk away from his job, he has to say goodbye to victoria, too.

Nick: Look, he’s probably just flexing his muscles. You know, he gets rid of ashland, he impresses dad. He proves that he can handle things on all fronts, unlike victoria.

Nikki: Yes, that’s exactly the message he was sending — that he thought her plan was doomed to fail. And she saw that for what it was. She’s furious.

Nick: And she has every right to be. If adam was this convinced that victoria’s plan was gonna be so ineffective, then he should’ve come to us, and together we could’ve come up with an alternative option. Instead, he just goes off freelancing.

Nikki: I really don’t know that he has it in him to be a team player.

Nick: How’s dad reacting to this?

Nikki: Well, he’s not happy.

Victor: I assume your coo encouraged you to take this path. And you thought it was a good idea based on what, based on her extensive experience in corporate deal-making?

Adam: No, dad, this was my idea. And it was mine alone.

Sally: But once I did hear about it, I thought it was wonderful. Simple, clear, and direct.

Adam: Look, I wanted to provide ashland with the incentive to do what you’ve been telling him to do ever since you discovered he’s a fraud — to get out of our lives.

Victor: Are you forgetting that victoria already had a plan?

Adam: Can I get a show of hands of anyone who actually thought that plan could work? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?!

Victor: Stop it!

Adam: Okay? I am coming at the problem from a different angle.

Victor: Really? Hell of an angle. You slack off, you listen to her advice, and you agree to pay this bastard hundreds of millions of dollars. Are you serious?!

Sally: If I may, adam’s plan is only expensive if it works, but you haven’t even told us how ashland responded to adam’s deal. If he wasn’t interested or he just blew it off, then this whole conversation is moot, right? There’s nothing to argue about.

Adam: He didn’t reject it, did he?

Victoria: Tell me that you never took that offer seriously. Tell me that you were just trying to make adam feel self-satisfied so that he would let his guard down.

Ashland: I’m sorry to say that adam has every reason to feel confident right now. He’s finally on track to getting everything he’s ever wanted. He’ll be victor’s shining star. Respected, admired, and, yes, he will take over for me once I’m gone.

Victoria: “Gone”?

Ashland: Yes. I told you already I want to get the hell out of this place. Start someplace fresh.

Victoria: You were tired. I — I just thought you were fantasizing or that you felt discouraged.

Ashland: All of the above.

Victoria: You know there is still time to hold adam accountable for all that he’s done. Clearly you can see by now that he is trying to set you up, now that he’s made this final push to shove you out of the company, now he’s demanding that we end our marriage. Tell me that you’re not gonna give in to these demands. You’re gonna fight this, right?

Ashland: I know that you want me to plant evidence to incriminate adam.

Victoria: It’s the least that he deserves.

Ashland: I care more about what you deserve. Victoria, I can’t give it all to you anymore. We can no longer continue the life that we’d planned and loved and built, running newman/locke side-by-side and trusting each other implicitly. That life is not gonna happen. But I can still be the man that I promised you I would be on the day we got married.

[ Sighs ] The thing is…I’m a selfish man. Greedy and selfish. I don’t just want your love. I want your respect. And I know if I do this thing that you’re asking me to do, that’s what I’ll lose.

Victoria: And that’s your final answer. You’re not gonna do what’s necessary to bring adam down.

Ashland: No. The answer to lies is not more lies.

Victoria: But it’s all been lies, hasn’t it? From the very beginning.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Victor: I will tell you about my conversation with ashland after you assure that I’ve been heard and understood.

Adam: [ Clears throat ] Loud and clear. You want me to work for the good of the family, and honestly, that’s what I thought that I was doing.

Victor: Don’t ever go off on your own and make a deal of this magnitude without me knowing about it.

Adam: Listen, I was trying to help. Sometimes you got to think outside the boardroom. I made a judgment call.

Victor: You had no right to take the situation into your own hands — none!

Adam: Okay, look, I should’ve come to you before I made the offer, definitely, yes, but i wasn’t trying to get away with anything. I saw locke, the idea came to me, and I just ran with it.

Sally: It’s true. I was there. It was not something we had discussed. He was just inspired.

Victor: I don’t care if you were there or not! It was an impulsive decision. You shouldn’t have made it without consulting me and the family. Don’t you ever do that again! Isn’t that what you accused your sister of, having rushed into a plan?

Adam: Look, there were plenty of problems with victoria’s plan. Most importantly, he didn’t bite on the bait, which was me. And when I gave him my offer, i actually saw a big, beautiful light turn on behind his dead eyes, okay? He was intrigued. So what did the guy say?

Victor: He said he’s at the grand phoenix, waiting for you.

Adam: When? Right now?

Victor: Maybe he’s still there now.

Adam: Okay, uh, well, it’s past the point of no return. Unless you want me to kill this deal. Tell me now. Just say the word, and I’ll drop it.

Victor: Son, let me say this quietly. Once again, don’t ever make a deal without me knowing. Not a deal of that magnitude.

Nick: I mean, is there a chance adam’s plan could work, just paying him off? It’s not clever, it’s not overly complicated, but maybe that’s it’s saving grace.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] It’s easy money, if that’s what ashland is looking for.

Nick: You think he’s ready to give up control of the company?

Nikki: I don’t know. He asked your father to have adam meet him at the grand phoenix so they could go over the agreement. Although that could’ve just been a tactic.

Nick: Well, what does that buy him?

Nikki: I don’t know. More time? He’s always telling her how much he adores her and he would give up the world for her. This scheme feeds right into that. The poor thing, I mean, she must feel like we don’t support her and that we’ve given up faith in her.

Nick: And then ashland could twist things around, make it seem like it’s just the two of them versus the big, mean newman family.

Nikki: And then he can make this enormous sacrifice out of love.

Nick: When really it’s just a ploy, a way to pull her back to him.

Victoria: My god, you really are a piece of work, aren’t you?

Ashland: I don’t understand where this is coming from.

Victoria: Love really is blind, right, ashland? But guess what — my eyes have been opened.

Ashland: By your family.

Victoria: No, by you. There’s one thing I have known, that everybody knows about you, is that you are a fighter. You never surrender and you hardly ever show mercy, so there is no way in hell that you would ever let anyone set you up or sully your reputation. And then what, after that, you’re gonna take a payoff and you’re just gonna walk away from the company that you built with your wife? That wouldn’t happen.

Ashland: You’re making a lot of assumptions.

Victoria: The only reason you stopped looking for evidence against adam is because you know that there isn’t any. You know that he didn’t set you up. You’re 100% guilty. You have been faking your cancer for months. You falsified records. You bribed the doctors. You conned me into caring about you, and after I gave you my heart and my trust and after everything that you put me through, you at least owe me the truth. Can you not give me the truth?!

Ashland: You’re right. About one thing. Who I am — I am a fighter. What you may not be considering is that I’ve changed what I’m fighting for. Do you struggle with occasional nerve aches

Victoria: You want me to believe that you are fighting for me.

Ashland: I am.

Victoria: And yet you just told my parents that you would consider accepting a bribe to get me out of your life.

[ Scoffs ] I’m sorry, just pardon my confusion.

Ashland: What I consider and what I agree to are not necessarily the same things.

Victoria: Oh, right, yeah. It’s all just semantics.

Ashland: Look, I know that it doesn’t matter anymore what i say to you. It’s not likely you’re gonna believe any promises or denials that come out of my mouth right now. I understand that. I get it.

Victoria: That is so big of you.

Ashland: But I’m gonna let you in on a little secret, okay? I don’t believe you either. When you act like this — so tough and so above it all — i know what’s going on inside.

Victoria: Whatever affection I might still have for you is far outweighed by how angry I am with you.

Ashland: If the situation were reversed, if I found out that you were using me, a sick and dying man, to gain control of locke communications, I would be livid.

Victoria: Would you?

Ashland: Yes. I would feel betrayed, I would feel used, I would feel manipulated, and yet it would be impossible for me to stop loving you. Because I would know in my heart that no matter how our relationship started, no matter what kind of simplistic and grasping intentions we had at the beginning, that what it turned into was something entirely different. Something real and true and strong. And I would know that you were in love with me despite your best efforts to cover it up or pretend it away.

Victoria: It seems that you’ve decided to disregard everything that I say.

Ashland: No, I’m telling you that a love as strong and real as ours cannot be forced or faked. It cannot be an act, and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Victoria: So if the shoe were on the other foot, you would forgive me.

Ashland: Without hesitation.

Victoria: Because?

Ashland: Because I love you. And I could never stop loving you.

Victoria: What is it that you want from me?

Ashland: The same thing you want from me. The truth.

Nick: Alright, you’ll let me know if you hear anything.

Nikki: Yes, of course I will.

Nick: Look, mom, don’t worry. Vick is gonna come out of this stronger and tougher than she’s ever been.

Nikki: I hope so. She’s been through so much.

Nick: She’s gonna be okay.

Nikki: Alright, I’m gonna take off.

Nick: Alright, I love you.

Nikki: Love you too.

Sharon: She looks really worried.

Nick: Well, everything keeps piling up. We thought adam was up to something, and we were right.

Sharon: Why, what did she say to you?

Nick: Do you remember when you saw adam and ashland in here talking?

Sharon: Yeah.

Nick: Well, I guess adam decided he didn’t trust victoria to be able to single-handedly get ashland out of our lives, so what you were watching was adam going behind the family’s back, putting his own plan in motion.

Sharon: Should I act surprised?

Nick: Now everything’s up in the air. Ashland’s gonna have a chance to play us all against each other. It’s time I have a talk with ashland, and I know right where to find him.

Sharon: Wait. Nick, I don’t think that’s a good idea.

Victor: I have issues with your plan, son. What if ashland locke pretends to agree to accept the $500 million? Then he can toy with us. He can suddenly say, “I don’t like the deal.” And then what?

Adam: So what are you gonna do? Are you gonna just wait and hope that victoria’s plan works out?

Victor: Victoria’s plan was a damn good plan, son. Very good plan. All we had to do is catch him in doing something illegal. He would’ve terminated his contract with newman/locke. He would’ve been the hell out.

Sally: If he’s up to something underhanded, he’s never gonna get caught. He’s way too smart. He’s been five steps ahead of victoria since the day he made her his mark, and I am not victim-blaming because I thought he was in love with victoria just like everyone else.

Adam: Look, I’m not asking you to trust locke, because i certainly don’T. But if he agrees to walk away, i will insist that he signs ironclad legal documents. Okay? Nondisclosure, non-compete — all of it. It’ll be easy. We’ll make it clean, and we can get him out of our lives for good.

Victor: All this is contingent upon you getting ahold of $500 million. Where are you gonna get it — victoria? You know that’s out of the question. What? You think it’s gonna come from me?

Adam: What is worth to you to get this guy out of our lives?

Victor: [ Sighs ]

Give your morning a

little boost

Nick: Just give me one good reason why I shouldn’t let ashland have it.

Sharon: Well, you just got through saying how wrong it was for adam to go behind victoria’s back and take charge of the situation himself.

Nick: Yeah, I know, but it’s —

Sharon: How is that any different than you going to confront ashland right now? What is that gonna do? It’ll show victoria that you don’t trust her to handle this herself.

Nick: [ Sighs ] Well, it’ll make me feel better.

Sharon: Okay, but this isn’t about you.

Nick: I know, you’re right.

Sharon: Why are you even involved in this? Why don’t you just sit this one out?

Nick: This sick bastard has caused my sister so much pain.

Sharon: Okay, well, if you want to get involved, go to her. Just offer her your love and support. That’s what she really needs right now.

Adam: Yeah, it’s an obscene amount of money.

Victor: Hmm.

Adam: But what price can you put on freedom? Because that’s what you would be buying for victoria. My sister would never have to see this guy again. She could stop pretending to love him because it’s pretty clear that’s what’s messing with her head, no matter how much she wants to claim otherwise. And, dad, aside from that, we have to get this guy out of the family company. He gets in control, he can make major changes. Our management team — gone. His lieutenants get promoted, he could sell off entire divisions to the highest bidder. I think half a billion dollars is a small price to pay to avoid the kind of chaos that that man could unleash.

Victor: You’re not bringing up anything that I haven’t already considered.

Adam: Well, I figured as much. So what do you want me to do?

Victor: Meet with him. Make the deal.

Adam: And the money?

Victor: It’ll come from your father.

Adam: You — you won’t regret this.

Victor: See to it that i don’T.

Victoria: After everything that’s transpired, how can you expect me to forgive you?

Ashland: No, no, no, don’t go anywhere. I know it sounds mad. Just hear me out. We can start over. And thanks to adam, ironically, we will have all the capital we need to start our next venture.

Victoria: You don’t understand —

Craig: Come on, nancy, how can I forget the first drink we shared? After I swiped the bottle from your parents’ house.

Nancy: You hooligan.

[Both chuckle] Craig, do you remember the car you borrowed?

[Gasps] Oh, my god.

Craig: That was a piece of junk. But it did get us down to that little lake. Built a fire under the stars.

Nancy: [Exhales] And we were gonna go skinny-dipping.

Craig: [Chuckles] Were, until we started drinking. And… I remember leaning in to kiss you.

Nancy: Our first kiss. I–I was surprised. Actually, I was in heaven.

Craig: [Laughs]

Nancy: But then everything started spinning around, and–

Craig: Yeah, and then you vomited all over the place.

[Both laugh]

Nancy: Ah, real buzzkill, huh? Maybe it was just a sign of– of things to come.

Rafe: I gotta go.

Ava: Rafe. What an unpleasant surprise. Oh, did I hurt your feelings?

Rafe: I’d be careful if i were you.

Ava: Oh, see, now that was much better.

Rafe: Yeah. Accessory to a kidnapping, subordination of perjury, incrimination on false evidence.

Ava: Are those words supposed to mean something?

Rafe: Well, they should mean something to you, yeah, ’cause those are the crimes that you’re going down for.

Ava: [Chuckles] Yes, I think you tried that once before, and you failed miserably.

Rafe: I’m not done, not by a long shot. So enjoy your freedom… while it lasts.

Ava: Hey, you know what? Before you go, tell me this one thing: Um, how is my good friend nicole doing? No, actually, let me guess. Let me just guess this. Um, she is–she is acting just like she did with her hundreds of previous lovers and husbands and is treating you like you are damn special and the only man in this world who can possibly make her feel happy. Am I right?

Jake: Mm, you heard that ava and I are living together, huh?

Nicole: [Chuckles] It’s kinda hard to keep a secret in salem.

Jake: It’s not a secret.

Nicole: Well, last I heard, she was hiding out in a motel because she’s wanted by the police.

Jake: Not anymore.

Nicole: Right. What I’m trying to say is that if she can afford a motel, why is she crashing with you?

Jake: Because, nicole, i invited her to. If I’m being honest, money’s a little tight right now, with me being unemployed and ava–

Nicole: Being a fugitive?

[Scoffs] Okay, so what, in exchange for a place to sleep, she’s cooking lasagna and perhaps cracking the occasional kneecap?

Jake: No, no, no, nobody’s cracking anything.

Nicole: Oh.

Jake: In fact, ava realized the whole suzy homemaker thing is not really working out.

Nicole: Because she’s more of a lizzie borden type.

Jake: [Chuckles] Okay, how about we change the subject, huh?

Nicole: Okay, fine, agreed. But can I just give you a little friendly advice?

Jake: Go for it.

Nicole: Ava’s been my friend for a long time, and I know, i know she seems fun and chill and kinda the “grab a beer and eat a cannoli” type, but she’s dangerous, so just do yourself a favor and watch your back.

Jake: Mm, sounds a little more like a warning than advice.

Nicole: I suppose it is, considering she framed rafe for a crime he didn’t commit.

Gabi: Mr. Hutchins?

Hutchins: Who are you?

Gabi: I’m, uh, assistant da lola montez. May I come in? With depression, it’s my 5:52 woke-up-like-thismigraine medicine.

Gwen: My god, matty cakes, how long has it been?

Leo: It’s leo cakes.

Gwen: Leo cakes?

Leo: Mm-hmm.

Gwen: [Laughs] Leo. Leo, you know, I quite like the sound of that. It’s really fierce yet regal.

Leo: Mm, thank you. I am the lion queen, my love.

Gwen: Mm. I’m trying to remember the last time we saw each other. Um, when was it? It was, uh–[Gasps]–Oh, my god, it was that club. Do you remember the–with the, um–the mirrored ceilings? Then there was that dj there with that insane tiara.

Leo: Yes, in the gayborhood! Ps, I own that tiara now.

Gwen: How on earth did you do that?

Leo: Honey, I do not kiss and tell.

Gwen: Oh, come on, yes, of course you do.

Leo: Okay, that’s true, but i wanna hear about you. Are you still dancing on tables?

Gwen: I have hung up my dancing shoes, I’m afraid.

Leo: Quelle dommage.

Gwen: Yeah, well, since i lost my dancing partner, kicking up my heels sort of just lost its appeal, you know?

Leo: We did define philly nightlife, didn’t we?

Gwen: God, didn’t we? I cannot count how many bars and clubs have us to thank for putting them on the map. We–you and I, we really had some wild nights, didn’t we?

Leo: Ah, well, we had the time. Your boyfriend, jake, was always working nights as a “mechanic.”

Gwen: Yeah, his job did require quite a few euphemisms, didn’t it?

Leo: Is that why you’re here? Are you in the program?

Gwen: Witness protection?

Leo: Mm-hmm.

Gwen: No, no. And, um, jake and I, we’re–we’re not together anymore.

Leo: He’s not…

Gwen: Dead?

Leo: Mm-hmm.

Gwen: No. He’s alive and well, and he’s actually living here in salem.

Leo: You’re kidding.

Gwen: Yeah. We’ve actually managed to peacefully co-exist here for a while now.

Leo: Any chance of a reconciliation?

Gwen: No, no, none whatsoever. I have zero interest. Plus, he’s with somebody else now, so…

Leo: Hmm.

Jake: If ava did frame rafe, why hasn’t she been arrested?

Nicole: ‘Cause there’s no proof.

Jake: Oh, what? So maybe, maybe she didn’t do it? I mean, she has–nicole, she has denied it, right?

Nicole: Oh, come on, please. Tell me you do not believe her.

Jake: I got no reason not to.

Nicole: Oh, gosh, jake. She’s–[Groans]

Jake: Okay, let’s just say for a second, hypothetically, that ava did set rafe up. Didn’t rafe go behind her back first and cheat on her with you?

Nicole: [Sighs]

Rafe: You leave nicole alone.

Ava: Oh, aren’t we protective? You got it backwards, commish. She slapped me.

Rafe: After you slapped her.

Ava: If you ask me, she definitely had it coming.

Rafe: You go near nicole, I’m gonna add assault to the long list of crimes you’re already going to be facing soon.

Ava: I’m not really worried about that.

Rafe: Yeah? Well, you should be. And this time, I don’t even need to use department time or resources to find you.

Ava: That’s interesting, ’cause I don’t recall sending you my forwarding address.

Rafe: Yeah, you didn’t need to. I know exactly where you live.

Xander: Unfortunately, sarah’s condition has gotten much worse.

Jack: Then she still thinks she’s renee dumonde?

Xander: No. [Sighs] No, she, uh–she knows she’s sarah horton… but now she thinks she’s a little girl. The antidote that rolf concocted caused her to regress back to her childhood.

Jack: I’m so sorry to hear that.

Xander: Maggie told me that sarah’s doctor saw no sign that she was getting better, but i thought it was only right that i see her for myself.

Jack: And how did that go?

Xander: She had absolutely no clue who I was. I tried to spark her memory, but it didn’t work. I think her doctors are right. There’s nothing more they can do for her.

Jack: So you’re moving on with gwen?

Xander: Ah, jack. Gwen has been just so incredibly patient with me. She gave me all the space and time that I needed to sort out my feelings about all of this, and all she asked in return was that I make her one promise: If the antidote didn’t work, that I’d marry her. So that’s what I’m gonna do. You still there, jack?

Jack: Yes, yes, I am. I just wonder…

Xander: Wonder what?

Jack: Xander, do you really think you’re marrying gwen for the right reasons? My asthma felt anything but normal.

Hutchins: You’re an assistant da?

Gabi: I work with melinda trask.

Hutchins: Then I got nothing to say to you.

Gabi: Please, you’re gonna wanna hear what I have to say. Please, mr. Hutchins.

Hutchins: Make it quick.

Gabi: Ava vitali is about to be arrested.

Hutchins: You don’t say.

Gabi: Yes, we believe that she orchestrated a plan to frame commissioner hernandez, a plan that you’re familiar with since you accused him of planting evidence, falsely accused.

Hutchins: I didn’t hear anything about ava vitali being arrested.

Gabi: Yeah, we’ve been keeping it quiet for obvious reasons, but we feel like we have a good case against her. We’d have a stronger one if you testified.

Hutchins: Not interested.

Gabi: Are you sure about that? Because if you did, my office could make the charges against you go away.

Ava: So gabi told you that i moved in with jake?

Rafe: She may have mentioned it.

Ava: Hmm. It’s eating her alive that I’m living with him, isn’t it?

Rafe: I wouldn’t go that far.

Ava: Really? Because when she stopped by his place last night and found me in his bed, she–her head practically exploded.

Rafe: Doubt that.

Ava: [Laughs] It was really pathetic. Yeah, she–she practically threw herself at him in front of me, and she’s begging him, pleading with him to take her back, and of course he said no, and then finally he had to kick her out.

Rafe: Well–well, I’m sure she’s over it by now.

Ava: Yeah, so much so that she went running straight to her big brother and let him know what’s going on. Yeah. Now that she knows that I’m living with her ex, I’m sure she can’t stop thinking about what we’re up to.

Rafe: She knows what you’re up to. Nothing.

Ava: Yeah, but things can change. You know that when we were all living under the same roof, I–i did find jake to be very, very intriguing.

Rafe: Now you’re just trying to make me jealous.

Ava: Oh, come on, what would be the point in that? You’re with nicole now, right? And I’m on my way home to jake. Oh, you might wanna give gabi a little heads-up that, uh, those changes that I was talking about–they may be coming a lot sooner than I thought.

Rafe: [Chuckles] Sure.

[Sighs]

Nicole: Okay, you know what? Rafe did cheat on ava with me, but the last I checked, they don’t send people to jail for that.

Jake: Well, maybe ava thinks that they should.

Nicole: Well, since they weren’t going to, ava took matters into her own hands.

Jake: Innocent until proven guilty. Hey, you said, nicole, there’s no proof.

Nicole: Ava vitali is many things. Innocent is not one of them.

Jake: Hmm, and you’re the poster child for innocence, nicole? I mean, haven’t we already established that you went behind your good friend’s back and lied about it for months?

Nicole: All right, you wanna trust ava, fine, trust her. I’m just trying to give you a little advice.

Jake: Thank you, nicole, but I’m a big boy. I can look after myself.

Nicole: Jake, look, i understand you worked really hard to put your life of crime behind you. Don’t let ava suck you back in, because I guarantee you, if she goes down, she is taking you with her.

Craig: I know you’re hurting, nancy, but try to focus on the good memories, you know? We had some wonderful times together.

Nancy: I suppose we had a few.

Craig: A few? Come on. What about all the wonderful things we did in high school?

Nancy: Do you remember when we–when we entered the senior talent show?

Craig: [Laughs] You mean when you swore you could back me up on “send in the clowns”?

Nancy: I–I did.

Craig: Yeah, on a kazoo.

[Mimics kazoo]

Nancy: Well, we took first place, didn’t we?

Craig: Yeah, yeah, we did. It was one of the best nights of my life. Look… our life together was real. Our love was real. The years we spent raising children together was real. Nancy, I know, I know that the future looks completely different from the way we ever imagined it, but those memories, those–those moments, they’re–they’re just as meaningful now as they ever were.

Nancy: Yeah, they are… except I wanted them to last forever. Okay, this is a freezer, not a time capsule.

Leo: It is too bad you and jake broke up. I’m just saying, the guy was very hot.

Gwen: What are you talking about? You never even met him.

Leo: I saw him a few times from afar.

Gwen: Well, it doesn’t even matter anyway, because jake and I–we’re ancient history. Plus, I have a new man now.

Leo: So do I. He’s crazy about me. So crazy, he left his wife.

Gwen: Oh, my goodness, what is it with you and straight men? Why are they always your cup of tea?

Leo: Can I help it if i appreciate a beautiful body, even if it happens to belong to someone who is hopelessly heterosexual? But my guy is different. He was closeted.

Gwen: [Laughs] How is that any better?

Leo: Well, because he’s out now, and he’s walking down the aisle with me.

Gwen: Stop it.

Leo: Tell all the boys I’ve loved before it is the end of an era. Mr. Right proposed. I said yes. I’m getting married.

[Laughs]

Gwen: Oh, my god! That is so wonderful. Congratulations.

Leo: Wait, hold on just a second. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What is this?

Gwen: This…

Leo: Uh-huh?

Gwen: This right here? Is this what you’re talking about? I believe they call that an engagement ring.

Leo: I–does this mean…

Gwen: Yes, my boyfriend proposed, and we’re also getting married.

Leo: [Laughs gleefully]

Xander: What do you mean, am I marrying gwen for the right reasons?

Jack: I hear the sadness in your voice.

Xander: Of course I’m sad, jack. I just watched a remarkable woman, a woman I–a woman who meant a great deal to me, turn into a child before my eyes.

Jack: Look, I–I don’t mean to be insensitive. I just–I–I wanna understand this promise you made to gwen.

Xander: I don’t know how i can say it any more clearly. I promised gwen that if the antidote didn’t work, that I’d marry her, and that’s exactly what I’m gonna do.

Jack: Because you’re madly in love with her and she’s the only woman you can imagine spending your life with? Or because you feel obligated?

[Somber music]

I’m sorry. I–I–I’m not trying to cause you any more pain, but gwen has suffered a great deal in her life as well.

Xander: Jack, look, I know that you’re just trying to protect your daughter, but believe me, gwen is–gwen is not some consolation prize in all of this, and I didn’t make that promise just to hedge my bets. It was an attempt to honor what sarah and I had, while still, at the same time, trying to be fair to gwen. So, to answer your question, jack, yes, I’m marrying gwen for all the right reasons, and I’m gonna dedicate the rest of my life to making her as happy as she makes me.

Hutchins: How can you make the charges against me go away?

Gabi: Well, the thing is that, uh, rafe hernandez being released didn’t reflect very well on my boss. She still has egg on her face from the debacle with judge smails.

Hutchins: Who?

Gabi: You know what? Never mind. The point is that there is nothing melinda trask hates more than looking like a fool. Now she’s on a warpath to take down any and every criminal she can.

Hutchins: Maybe that’s why they moved up my court date. I got something in the mail soon after hernandez was found not guilty of planting evidence against me.

Gabi: That’s not coincidence. That’s trask going scorched earth.

Hutchins: If that’s her mo, why would she drop the charges against me?

Gabi: She’s only after all you little fish because she couldn’t land the big one. But you could change that.

Hutchins: [Scoffs] By giving her ava vitali?

Gabi: Trask has no doubt that ava was behind the plan to take the commissioner down. If you got on the stand, you back that up, I’m sure she could find a way to make your case go bye-bye. The lows of bipolar depression

Gabi: So will you testify? If you’re worried about retaliation, we can protect you.

Hutchins: You mean that?

Gabi: Absolutely.

Hutchins: [Sighs] I’m sorry, ms. Montez, i can’T…

[Sighs] But… I can give you this.

Gabi: What’s this?

Hutchins: Let’s just call it a little insurance policy I took out.

[Suspenseful music]

[Jazz music playing]

Nicole: Oh, hi.

Rafe: Hi. Sorry I’m late. Been here long?

Nicole: No, not too long. You were worth the wait. I got you a beer.

Rafe: Thank you. Cheers. Ah, needed this.

Nicole: Tough day?

Rafe: It was fine, until I ran into ava.

Ava: Hey!

Jake: Hey.

Ava: You, um–you wanna share the rest of the lo mein with me? There’s also kung pao left over in the fridge.

Jake: Nah, no, I’m good. I just had a big plate of wings at that little bar downtown.

Ava: Mm.

Jake: Ran into nicole there.

Ava: Ah. My condolences.

Jake: Eh. She knows we’re living together.

Ava: Yeah?

Jake: Uh-huh.

Ava: So how many seconds till she started trashing me?

Jake: Well, she gave me a warning.

Ava: Well, what does she think I’m going to do, huh?

Jake: Well, she told me that you were gonna pull me into my old life, and that when you get taken down, you’re gonna take me down with you, and she would not let up on the notion that you set rafe up.

Ava: Hmm. And, uh, what did you say?

Jake: I told her you didn’t do anything to rafe, and she needs to curb her judgment, because she’s no saint herself.

Ava: Well, that is very chivalrous of you.

Jake: Well, I’m not a fan of hypocrites, especially when they play all high and mighty.

Ava: Okay, well, it does seem like nicole is thinking I’m a bit of a threat, so you sure you want me to still stay with you here?

Jake: Yeah. Like I told nicole, I’m a big boy. I can watch out for myself.

Nancy: You’re really going through with this, craig? You’re actually going to marry leo?

Craig: Yes, as soon as the papers are filed. Probably next week. Look, nancy, I know it’s sudden, and I know you and chloe and the whole town are skeptical of leo, but people change.

Nancy: And you really do love him?

Craig: Yeah, um, we love each other.

[Laughs]

Nancy: Well, if that’s true, then, craig, I’m happy for you.

Craig: You–you mean that? You–you really mean that?

Nancy: I’m trying.

Craig: [Laughs] Nancy… maybe–ah, maybe you’ll consider…

Nancy: Consider what?

Craig: Maybe you’ll consider coming to our wedding. Like pulsing, electric shocks,

Nancy: Come to your wedding?

Craig: Nancy… you have been with me at all the most important moments of my life. This moment, this–this step I’m taking–I don’t wanna take it without you.

Nancy: I–I don’t know, craig.

Craig: Well, will you at least think about it?

Nancy: I’ll think about it.

Leo: You’re getting married too? When?

Gwen: Next week.

Leo: So am I. I haven’t planned a thing.

Gwen: Neither have we. My god, I mean, things, um– things–things got a bit complicated, actually, and, um, well, we were in a bit of a holding pattern for a while. But now it’s full steam ahead.

Leo: This is like nuptial kismet. I haven’t seen you in forever, run into you in snoresville of all places, and we’re getting married at the same time.

Gwen: [Exhales] I know, it’s incredible.

Leo: You are my cosmic, karmic, bridal twin…

Gwen: [Laughs]

Leo: Except…

Gwen: Except what?

Leo: Well, you said things got complicated. Are you, uh–are you with child?

Gwen: Pregnant? No.

Leo: Oh.

Gwen: Um, I mean, uh–um, I was. I was, but, um, it was a long time ago, and, uh, it didn’t work out.

Leo: Oh, gwenny mouse, I’m so sorry.

Gwen: It’s okay. It was a whole big mess, actually, and, um, well, it wasn’t with the right person. But I am with the right person now, and I cannot wait to make him my lawfully wedded husband.

Leo: Amen to that. So what are you thinking about for a dress? Sleek and sexy? Poofy and fabulous? What?

Gwen: [Chuckles] No, I can’t afford a dress. Everything’s so bloody expensive.

Leo: The only thing more expensive than a wedding is a divorce. Not that you have to worry about that.

Gwen: God, especially since we’re so broke already. I keep telling myself that I’m– I’m fine with a small ceremony. I mean, we’re getting married. That’s all that matters, right?

Leo: That’s right.

Gwen: Oh, god, who am i kidding?

Leo: [Laughs]

Gwen: I want a big, beautiful wedding. I–I want–I want flowers everywhere, and I want beautiful music, and I want fabulous food.

Leo: Fabulous champagne.

Gwen: Ugh, yes. God, I can see it in my mind, this glorious, magical celebration.

Leo: Hmm, I’m right there with you. I want as much pomp as possible with my circumstance.

Gwen: You know, it’s funny, though, because I–I don’t know where it came from. I didn’t really grow up watching princess movies as a ward of the state.

Leo: Same. It’s not like after my dad was done knocking my mom and me around, we sat down in front of the telly and watched “cinderella.”

Gwen: But you did find your prince.

Leo: [Exhales] I did. He’s a doctor. He’s brilliant, handsome, loaded.

Gwen: Oh, my. Well, it sounds like your wedding will be an impeccably catered five-star affair, and mine will be some picnic by a river somewhere.

Leo: [Laughs] Picnics can be posh.

Gwen: Mm-hmm, yeah, sure. Oh, you just better invite me to your big day, so that I can live vicariously through you.

Leo: I might have a better idea.

Xander: Jack, are you still there, mate?

Jack: I’m here, I’m here. I appreciate everything that you said about my daughter, and I do believe that you wanna make her happy.

Xander: Well, I’m glad. So think you can make it to salem for the wedding? Stand up for me?

Jack: Of course I’m gonna be there. How could I not? It’s my daughter’s wedding…

Xander: Right.

Jack: And my best mate’S.

Limu emu

Gabi: Thank you, mr. Hutchins. My office will be in touch.

Hutchins: Make sure it is, ’cause I don’t even wanna think about what would happen if ava found out that I gave that to you.

[Tense music]

Ava: Once you say rafe hernandez planted this evidence on you, there is no way he can come back from this. He’s going down.

Hutchins: Isn’t it my word against his?

Ava: That’s the beauty of it. I got two other guys lined up. None of you know each other. No one will ever know that I put the three of you up to this.

Gabi: No one except me.

Nicole: You ran into ava?

Rafe: Outside the pub.

Nicole: How did it go?

Rafe: About as unpleasant as you’d imagine.

Nicole: I’m sorry.

Rafe: Yeah, you know, but the good news is, we might not have to worry about running into her much longer.

Nicole: What do you mean?

Rafe: Gabi is trying to find evidence that proves ava set me up, and she’s working on a lead right now.

Nicole: Gabi is?

Rafe: Hey, don’t worry. She’s not breaking any rules, and she’s being careful.

Nicole: Okay. Well, I hope she’s successful.

Rafe: Yeah, me too. I’ve also been thinking that even when you’re careful with ava, she finds a way to surprise you, and I don’t mean in a good way.

Nicole: I said the same thing to jake. He was here earlier.

Rafe: Oh, yeah? Talk to you about his new roommate?

Nicole: Yeah, I warned him not to get sucked in, because if ava goes down, she will take him with her.

Ava: So I guess the wings didn’t really do the trick?

Jake: No, they did. I can just never say no to kung pao.

Ava: Eh, I mean, who really can? Hope you don’t mind I took the liberty of inflating the mattress.

Jake: Yeah, I saw. I didn’t know I had extra pillows.

Ava: You didn’T.

Jake: So, what, the bedtime fairy stop by? They do turndown service in the garage now?

Ava: Yeah, well, I may have stopped by the store, picked up some extra pillows and a new set of sheets.

Jake: We already have sheets.

Ava: 800 thread count? Because that is as low as I go.

Jake: You?

Ava: Yeah. Look, I–I can’t keep asking you to give up your bed, especially with your bad back, so, since you made the splurge on the mattress, I’m sure it’s really comfortable.

Jake: I–I know it is, which is why I’m taking it.

Ava: Jake, you don’t have to.

Jake: I want to. I’m chivalrous, remember?

Ava: All right, be chivalrous and pass me that lo mein.

Jake: You got it.

Ava: [Chuckles]

Jake: Cheers.

Ava: Cheers.

Xander: Ah, I was just talking to jack. He’s very excited about our big day. Booking flights as we speak.

Gwen: Really? Oh, that’s wonderful. I–I–I wasn’t sure he’d be able to make it on such short notice.

Xander: He said he wouldn’t miss it. It’s his daughter’s wedding. So did you order the cake?

Gwen: I did. It was a tad expensive.

Xander: Well, tuxes aren’t cheap either. I’m starting to wonder how far we’ll get just on my maxed-out credit cards and winning smile.

Gwen: Actually, my darling, I have a proposition for you.

[Solemn music]

Nancy: [Crying]

Leo: Mm! How did it go?

Craig: It went as good as could be expected, I guess.

Leo: So nancy signed the papers?

Craig: Yeah, she signed. Justin’s gonna file the papers in the morning, and then we can make plans to move forward with the wedding.

Leo: Oh, I cannot wait. About those plans…

Craig: Mm-hmm?

Leo: I have a proposition for you.

Xander: A double wedding? With who?

Leo: My friend, gwen. We go back years. She and her fiancé can’t afford a nice wedding, so I kind of suggested that we share ours.

Gwen: My friend and his fiancé have plenty of money, and he told me that they’d be more than happy to include us in their wedding.

Xander: That is awfully generous of him.

Craig: That was awfully generous of you.

Leo: I know, I should have talked to you about it first, but she’s such a dear friend, and the thought of her having her reception on some sad picnic tables? What do you think?

Craig: What do I think?

[Inhales slowly, exhales] I think this is one of the many things I love about you, leo. You have such a kind and giving heart.

Gwen: So what do you think?

Xander: I think that we should slow our roll. Like, I don’t even know this friend of yours. Who–who is it again?

Gwen: His name is matty, and you’re absolutely going to love him. If you want to stay out of jail, you need to go good.

Steffy: Shei… la…

Liam: Nobody’s here. Why is nobody here?

Hope: I’m sure they’re all in with steffy.

Liam: Yeah, okay. Yeah. I just can’t– I can’t even believe this is happening, like the fact that steffy’s even laying in a hospital bed right now, like why– who would do this? Who would do this to steffy and finn, of all people?

Hope: Oh, bridget, is there any word on steffy?

Bridget: You haven’t heard yet? It’s good news! She regained consciousness!

Liam: Wha– what? Really? Oh, my god, oh, my god, oh, my god.

Hope: She’s going to be okay!

Liam: Yes. Yes.

Thomas: You had us all scared, sis.

Taylor: Yeah. But we need you to come back to the people that love you and need you.

Ridge: She was guided.

Taylor: What does that mean?

Ridge: Well, I had a word with the big man and he answered. It’s a long story.

Steffy: What… what happened?

Liam: Oh, my god, this is amazing. I– I can’t believe it. So, so what, so what exactly– what does this mean? Is– is steffy out of danger now, or–

Bridget: No, no, no, she still has a fight ahead of her, but regaining consciousness is a step in the right direction for sure. I am cautiously optimistic.

Hope: All right, well, we’ll take iT.

Zende: Man, what a relief. What’s the prognosis?

Liam: Uh, it’s just well, still some obstacles ahead, but– but it is a major improvement.

Steffy: Hos… a hospital?

Ridge: That’s right.

Taylor: Don’t– don’t try to talk, sweetheart, please. Save your strength, your body has been through a tremendous shock.

Thomas: Uh, you don’t remember why you’re here, huh?

Ridge: You were shot.

Steffy: Shot?

Zende: You can imagine how shocked we were when we heard what happened.

Hope: Oh my gosh, no one told the office. I feel so bad, I should have called. I’m sorry.

Paris: No, wait. You’re literally going through a tragedy.

Zende: It’s a double tragedy. But what the hell happened?

Paris: Yeah, is– is finn really dead?

Hope: It’s horrible, and it hasn’t really sunken in yet because we’ve all been so focused on steffy.

Paris: I was hoping that that was some kind of mistake through word getting around. Like, yeah, he’s been shot, but he’s still alive. How can it be any other way?

Zende: Thank god we didn’t lose both of them. Steffy, she’s gonna make it, right?

Hope: No, she has to.

Liam: I mean, it’s steffy, right? She’s not about to abandon her kids.

Hope: Poor hayes has lost his father now.

Zende: Finn was a good man.

Paris: So… what are the circumstances?

Liam: I mean, they don’t know exactly. They– they think it’s a robbery gone wrong.

Paris: What was taken?

Liam: Okay, so: Steffy’s purse, finn’s wallet and cell phone, and then, just, just their rings.

Paris: Anyone else find it strange why steffy and finn would even be there?

Zende: It’s a long valet line, maybe? They could have had dinner and parked out back.

Paris: I mean, I– I suppose. I don’t know, maybe it was a wrong place, wrong time thing? Does– does steffy know that finn is gone?

Liam: Yeah, see I– see, that’s a good question, and we don’T… I don’t know, I mean, I guess it would just depend on like, the timing. Right? ‘Cause if– oh, god, if, you know, finn was shot first…

Zende: Either way, this is awful. Steffy lost a husband and– and hayes lost his father.

Paris: Who would do something like this? Anyone who knew steffy and finn, how incredible and extraordinary they were– I mean, it had to be a stranger.

Zende: I mean– I don’t know, if you’re trying to piece this together, they– I mean, clearly, they had dinner, right? And I guess maybe they just– they left the restaurant out of the back for whatever reason and I suppose they just walked into something they couldn’t have anticipated.

Liam: I guess, I–

Paris: Oh how’s– how’s ridge?

Liam: Uh, you know, I mean he’s– he’s hanging in there, he’s– it’s ridge, he’s trying to be strong for his family, but, uh, it’s– it’s tough.

Zende: I’m sure. Steffy, she’s the light of uncle ridge’s life. I don’t even want to imagine what losing her would do to him.

Liam: Well, unfortunately she’s not– you know, we’re not in the clear yet. Bridget said there still might be complications.

Paris: But she did sound optimistic.

Liam: Cautiously, she said.

Hope: Yeah, but I mean, we can’t count steffy out. She’s a fighter.

Liam: Well, that much is true.

Hope: Yeah, I mean, she’s made it this far. I can only imagine that she’ll– she’ll find her way back.

Paris: Yeah, I mean there’s no way she’s leaving those kids. Hayes and kelly, they mean everything to her.

Zende: How you holding up, liam? This whole thing must be a nightmare for you.

Liam: Uh, thank you, thanks for asking. I, um– okay, I, it’s just– it’s, it’s steffy, so that, you know, there’s a lot of history there. We share a child together, we– we went through great pains to, you know, blend our families so that we could co-parent kelly. The thought of her not being around to see kelly grow up, I– I don’t know, it’s just, it’s not– it’s not something I was mentally prepared for facing.

Hope: Well, you don’t have to, okay? Steffy’s not going anywhere.

Liam: Yeah.

Paris: No way, but it goes to show how you have to cherish every moment. It can be gone just like that.

Hope: Something we shouldn’t take for granted.

Zende: Yeah, but I keep coming back to the same place in my mind. I mean, steffy and finn are good people. They don’t make them any better. Who– who would just shoot them and then just disappear into the night?

Steffy: You shot your son.

We need to get help!

You’re sick.

You’re sick. You’re going

to prison for the rest

of your life!

Taylor: This is too much right now. You just woke up.

Sheila: Yeah, taylor is right. You wanna take things slowly. You don’t wanna jeopardize steffy’s recovery. Her condition is still very fragile.

Ridge: Hey, sheila. Thank you. I think we got it.

Taylor: Okay. She’s just trying to help.

Ridge: We don’t need her help. If anyone knows what to do for steffy, it’s us, the three of us. Her family.

Sheila: I– I wasn’t trying to imply anything other than that. It– it’s just… there’s plenty of time for– for her remembering what had to be an incredibly traumatic event.

Ridge: You know what. That surprises me. I thought you want to find the shooter. Make sure they go to jail for what they did.

Steffy: Shot…

Taylor: Yes, baby, it was awful.

Steffy: Why? And there it is.

Hope: You hanging in there?

Liam: Yeah. I’m– you know, I’m just beyond grateful that steffy’s awake, but I guess I’m still processing.

Hope: I know.

Paris: I just don’t understand how this is real. Finn is gone. Like, he’ll never be able to teach hayes how to throw a football or save another patient’s life. How can that be?

Zende: I can’t imagine steffy without him.

Liam: You know something? I don’t think I ever told finn how much I appreciated him just loving my child. No questions asked.

Hope: Sweetie, I’m sure finn knew how grateful you were.

Liam: I don’t know how to tell kelly she’s never gonna see him again.

Hope: Well, when steffy feels up to it, we will find a way to tell her together as a family.

Paris: But for now, she’s just gotta keep fighting.

Hope: And she will. For the kids. Especially hayes, because he needs her more now than ever.

[ Liam groaning ]

Liam: It’s just, I don’t– I don’t understand how– I mean, it’s just the way that we lost finn. It’s like, it’s so senseless, it’s–

Paris: Over money or credit cards?

Liam: Yeah.

Paris: It’s j– that doesn’t make sense, and I know steffy and finn would have given whatever the person wanted, so why shoot them?

Zende: We’re trying to make sense out of something that’s totally random.

Paris: I just hope the police are close to catching the person who did this.

Hope: Well, I mean maybe steffy will be able to shed some light on the situation now that she’s awake.

Liam: With any luck. Identify the son of a bitch who did it.

Sheila: Why? You mean, why were you shot?

Ridge: It appears to have been a robbery.

Thomas: Yeah, stef, um, whenever we find out who did this to you–

Taylor: You know, I think we should– I think we should give her some– some time here. You know, she just– she just woke up. She’s still very fragile.

Steffy: What happened?

Ridge: What happened, the police is trying to put together now. What do you think happened? Do you remember anything? Do you remember someone’s face, maybe, or a car pulling away, anything like that?

Steffy: I…

Taylor: Okay, okay, let’s– let’s not push her. Okay, she needs to rest. The police are gonna be questioning her.

Ridge: I get it, I get all that. There’s a lunatic running around with a gun.

Taylor: I know.

Ridge: I don’t want somebody else’s kid being shot.

Taylor: I know, but–

Sheila: You know, as– as a trained nurse, though, it’s my professional opinion that you don’t want to– you don’t want overstress her. You don’t want to cause anything that might have her regress. What’s most important right now is– is her complete recovery.

Ridge: Steffy, try to remember. Restaurant. The alley. Is there anything– who do you think put you here?

Zende: How you doing over here?

Paris: Um, I’m just trying to imagine moving on without finn and I can’T. I can’t quite get there.

Zende: Yeah, I, um, I know you guys were close.

Paris: I mean, he was so alive. So full of love and laughter, and– and goofiness. Finn was so fun, and a great dad and and amazing partner and husband to steffy. Kind and warm, a healer, and now he’s just gone because of some random robbery?

Zende: It’s crazy.

Paris: I mean, I got to know him when I moved in to steffy’s, and he’s a wonderful guy. And he didn’t deserve this. Being shot dead in an alley and just left there. He didn’t deserve this.

Hope: You know what really hurts? This was the happiest I had ever seen steffy in all her life. With her husband, and her family, and now that’s broken.

Liam: Yeah, she’S… she’s gonna need all of us when she realizes.

Zende: And we’ll be right there for her.

Paris: Yeah. Whatever she needs.

Liam: I guess I just hope that everything that happened to her, you know, getting shot and losing her husband… she’s such a– steffy’s such a fearless person, I just don’t want it to change her, you know?

Paris: It won’T.

Hope: She’s got so many people who love and support her, and we will all be there for her.

Liam: Yeah. And then there’s kelly.

Hope: I know. We got kelly too.

Liam: Put me in a room with the guy who did this, I swear to god.

Paris: Seriously.

Hope: You know what, I think we should focus on the positives. Steffy has regained consciousness. That’s amazing. And now we just need to concentrate on getting her all the way back.

Paris: And for us to pick up the slack in the meantime.

Zende: It’s crazy that we even have to. I mean, steffy should be out there being the boss lady everyone knows and loves. Who would want to shut her down like this?

Ridge: Honey, I know it’s hard but you gotta try. There’s a lunatic out there with a gun. I don’t want anyone else getting hurt. Why were you at il giardino’s?

Steffy: I do not remember.

Ridge: Okay, you have to try to remember, please.

Sheila: Ridge, you know what, this really isn’t–

Ridge: Sheila! This is between me and my daughter. Please, be quiet.

Steffy: Uh…

Ridge: What? Are you remembering something?

Steffy: Uh…

Thomas: Yeah, stef. Anything. You remember what they look like, hair color…

Steffy: Her…

Ridge: Honey? Who did this to you?

Taylor: We’re all here, baby.

Ridge: Say it one more time. Just try to say it one more time.

[ Steffy mumbling and groaning ] HeR…

Taylor: If you can tell us, please tell us. We won’t let anyone or anything ever hurt you again.

[ Steffy mumbling and groaning ]

Proofread by Anita

Masked man: Don’t do anything stupid and you might live through this!

Sonny: Okay. You know what? Everything’s fine. Take what you want, and we’ll stay out of your way.

Masked man: Shut up. You stay right there.

Sonny: Nothing has happened. Nothing needs to happen. You turn around and go, and this will all be over.

Dante: What are you doing?

Sam: Um… I was forwarding your forensic file to my e-mail.

Dante: F-forwarding the — the PCPD confidential forensics file? That file?

Sam: Yeah. And you’re mad.

Dante: What the hell, Sam? Of course I’m mad. What were you thinking?

Sam: I don’t know. I-I did it for the right reasons.

Dante: What? What reasons?

Sam: Trina and — and Joss. You’re the one who said that Trina didn’t do it.

Dante: Yeah, I don’t think Trina did it, but I still have to do a legal investigation. And I don’t remember hiring you for your PI services on this one.

Sam: Well, I wasn’t doing it as a PI.

Dante: Then in what capacity were you taking a private work e-mail from my phone?

Carly: Oh, no, no, no, no. Carly —

Sam: This is my fault.

Carly: It is my fault. I’m the one who —

Drew: And we’re leaving!

Carly: What are you doing? Excuse me. What the hell do you think you’re doing?

Drew: You know exactly what I’m doing. I’m — I’m saving you from yourself.

Austin: Need me to hold the bag for you?

Chase: No, I’m good, thanks.

Spinelli: As it happens, you’d be wise to keep your hands free.

Austin: Why’s that?

Spinelli: Because insulting a woman’s honor does not go unnoticed. Not by me.

[ Laughter ]

Brook Lynn: We had champagne this morning, and now we’re working out. We’re doing this day backwards.

Maxie: Trust me, you’ll feel so much better after you get your sweat on.

[ Indistinct conversation ]

Maxie: Then again, adrenaline is way overrated.

Josslyn: Are you okay?

Trina: Oh, my gosh. You didn’t have to come.

Josslyn: Um, yes, I did. I could tell that you were upset.

Trina: Through my text?

Josslyn: That’s how well I know you.

Trina: But weren’t you just hanging out with Cam?

Josslyn: Yeah, but I had already left. I was on my way home. Stop asking me questions. What happened?

Trina: Spencer happened.

Cameron: What do you want?

Spencer: Wow. Welcomes don’t come warmer than that.

Cameron: Expecting something different?

Spencer: Look, I know that you’re pissed at me.

Cameron: That’s an understatement.

Spencer: But I could really use a friend right now.

Cameron: Then you’ve come to the wrong place.

Sasha: I can’t believe you forgot to invite Sonny to our reception.

Brando: I meant to and then… call the police.

Sasha: Okay.

Brando: Get out of the line of fire. Now. Go.

Sasha: You’re coming with me, right? Right?!

Brook Lynn: You invited your boyfriend, your baby dad, and Chase?

Maxie: To a dance cardio class? I most certainly did not.

Spinelli: It’s an ancient custom that lasted well into the 19th Century, even the 20th in some remote areas —

Maxie: well, this is quite the trio.

Austin: Hi.

Brook Lynn: Hi.

Chase: Hi.

Spinelli: Uh, had I known you were here, I-I would have… taken this elsewhere.

Maxie: Taken what? What are you doing, Spinelli?

Austin: Defending your honor, apparently.

Spinelli: The doctor has to answer for his transgressions.

Maxie: Okay. Let’s have a little chat. Come on.

Chase: I heard the deception IPO launch was a success. Social media went crazy and the stock price went through the roof?

Brook Lynn: Yeah. Thanks.

Chase: How are you?

Brook Lynn: I’m good. You?

Chase: Not so great.

Brook Lynn: W-what’s wrong? A-are you feeling okay?

Chase: No, I feel terrible. I feel terrible that I let you down.

Carly: I was just trying to explain that I was the one who put Sam up to it and Dante was getting twitchy —

Drew: Twitchy? Is that, like, the technical term for it?

Carly: I just want him to know that it was my fault, that Sam didn’t do anything.

Drew: I understand.

Carly: Great.

Drew: Wait, wait. Where are you going?

Carly: I’m going back out there to talk to them!

Drew: No, no, you’re not, actually. You know what you’re doing? You’re gonna sit right here like that. Here’s the deal. Dante and Sam are in a relationship.

Carly: I’m aware of that. I was just trying to explain to them —

Drew: Whatever’s happening out there, Dante getting twitchy or angry or — or — or whatever it is, that’s between them. I mean, I-I realize that you were just trying to explain, and that’s — that’s very well-intentioned, but…

Carly: Ill-advised.

Drew: Yeah. When has inserting yourself into another couple’s problems ever worked out?

Carly: Never.

Drew: Hmm.

Carly: Okay. You’re right. I made things worse, didn’t I?

Drew: Well…I mean. [ Laughs ] It kind of surprised me, I got to say, that you wanted to get involved at all.

Carly: Really? After the whole victor bridge debacle?

Drew: Huh. Yeah, well, this was a little bit different. Sam’s not in danger, so…

Carly: Yeah. Right. Oh, I feel like I’m losing my mind, you know? With the whole Josslyn videotape scandal, Trina getting arrested. It’s just…

Drew: Yeah. Hey, w-what’s happening with that?

Carly: Oh [Scoffs] You don’t want to know.

Drew: Yeah, Carly, I do.

Josslyn: Spencer said he was worried about you. Really? After all he did was accuse you of being guilty?

Trina: It was kind of like whiplash. One minute he was, like, concerned, and then the next, he was talking about how I can’t blame Esme for everything.

Josslyn: Like hell we can’t.

Trina: Go on and say it. You tried to warn me about him. Said Spencer is sincere in the moment, but at the core, he’s shallow and an easily manipulated person. The only thing that he has mileage for is being a lost, little rich boy, and… when it matters, there’s no “there” there.

Josslyn: Well, if I said that, I didn’t say it nearly as well. I probably just called Spencer a tool.

Trina: You said that, too.

Josslyn: I don’t want to be right.

Trina: And I don’t want to care about Spencer.

Josslyn: But you do.

Trina: If I didn’t, it wouldn’t hurt this much.

Cameron: Trina’s already having a hard time as it is, and then you go and accuse her of Esme’s crimes.

Spencer: How did you hear about that?

Cameron: About your little trip to the PCPD? Trina’s my friend — the real kind. The kind that share stuff and have each other’s backs.

Spencer: It’s not what you think.

Cameron: No?

Spencer: Can I just come inside, please? I hate that Trina thinks the worst of me. That’s why I’m here. Thanks.

Cameron: Well, I hope you’re not expecting any sympathy.

Spencer: I’m not.

Cameron: ‘Cause it’s not my fault you turned your back on Trina and spawned this baby with the devil.

Spencer: Esme isn’t pregnant.

Cameron: Well, too bad. You deserve to be tied down to that nightmare for life.

Spencer: Yeah. Okay, fine. So, no baby. But the other thing that you said is true. I let Trina down.

Cameron: Big time.

Sonny: Leaving is — is still an option. We c– we can’t id you even if we tried.

Masked man: Shut up and open the till! Add your wallets and jewelry.

Sonny: O-okay. Tonight’s profits have already been deposited, so it’s just gonna be petty cash.

Masked man: Get it.

Sonny: All right, I’m gonna grab it right —

Masked man: No, no, no, no, no. Not alone, you’re not.

Sonny: What are you —

Masked man: check for anything locked and loaded.

Nina: [ Gasps ]

Masked man: Hey! What are you doing?

Sonny: Hey! You don’t want to touch her.

Masked man: And if I do?

Sonny: You don’t want to find out.

Sonny: Take what you came for and get the hell out.

Masked man: Your watch.

Sonny: You’re not taking my watch. That belonged to my dad.

Masked man: Can you believe this guy?

Sonny: If you want to take my watch, you’re gonna rip it off me.

[ Door opens ]

[ Men fighting ]

Nina: [ Breathing hard ]

Sonny: Nina, you okay?

Nina: I think so.

Sonny: Brando, you did good.

Chase: I really regret the way I responded when you asked me to sing your song.

Brook Lynn: It’s fine. I understand you wanting to get off suspension is — is your priority, and I don’t want to jeopardize that.

Chase: Okay, you say it’s fine, but I’m really getting a vibe that it’s not.

Brook Lynn: Well, your future as a detective is bright. Excuse me.

Dante: I never thought I’d have to… guard my phone from you.

Sam: Dante, come on.

Dante: Sam, that’s a document, an official document meant for a police officer. For me, for work. It’s not for a civilian. Y-y-you see that, right?

Sam: Yes, o-of course I see that. But it’s a report, right? Everything in it eventually is gonna come out. It just — that’s the deal. It moves forward.

Dante: Yeah, it does. You’re right. But — but y-y-you don’t see where this is a problem?

Sam: I mean… it’s not like I was stealing government secrets or tampering with evidence.

Dante: No, no, you’re right. In this case, it’s not. You getting eyes on this is not a game-changer.

Sam: Okay. Then…

Dante: Come on, you — you — you went into my phone. You accessed private files without asking me. I thought — I thought we had gotten to a-a place of mutual trust.

Sam: We have.

Dante: Okay. It just doesn’t seem like it to me. Or maybe you’ve got a different definition of it than I do have.

Sam: Okay. I, um…

Dante: Look…I’m gonna get privileged information. Stuff you’re not allowed to see. It’s that simple. It has nothing to do with how I feel about you.

Sam: I understand that.

Dante: Do you? Just…

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Dante: [ Sighs ] I need to know I can trust you for this to work. Falconeri. Yeah. Okay. I’ll be right there.

Sam: You have to go?

Dante: Yeah.

Sam: [ Sighs ]

Drew: I don’t know if you got my message.

Carly: I did. I’m sorry I didn’t call you back.

Drew: Mnh-mnh. What are you talking about? You don’t have to apologize. I know things have been crazy.

Carly: You have no idea.

Drew: So tell me.

Carly: [ Sighs ] Okay. Well, so this tape gets out and — and Josslyn is utterly humiliated. And I know that Cam is, too. I do.

Drew: But — but it’s not the same. I mean, both were — were victimized. Absolutely. For sure. No doubt about it. But at the end of the day, the guy ends up looking like kind of a sex god and the girl gets labeled a slut.

Carly: Yeah. Pretty much.

Drew: I’m sorry. But I do give Joss and Cam credit for doing that article.

Carly: Yeah. Well, you’ve got to throw some credit Alexis’ way, too.

Drew: Wow.

Carly: [ Laughs ]

Drew: Praising Alexis.

Carly: I know. Wonders never cease. But she really got the story, and the way we wanted the story to be told.

Drew: Yeah. Focusing on the victimization and how much of that lands on the girl, right? Yeah. Part of me wanted to get in there with Aurora, pick up the story, give it more steam. But then I worried about piling on. I don’t know. Maybe it was stupid.

Carly: I’m glad you stayed on the sideline.

Drew: You are?

Carly: Yeah, I mean… Alexis was far enough removed that I could handle her doing the story, but with you, things could get tricky, and — and you’re just, um, too close.

Drew: In that case, I’m gonna take advantage of that closeness.

Carly: Okay? [ Laughs ]

Drew: How are you? You. How are you dealing with all this?

Spencer: I know I said hurtful things to Trina. I don’t deny that, Cameron. But it is complicated.

Cameron: Oh, cry me a river. You know, I miss the times when you were just an annoying snob and just pretentious. But now you’re a full-blown ass.

Spencer: Can you please hear me out?

Cameron: Why? So you can just bombard me with lies and excuses.

Spencer: No excuses. But I’m allowed to have problems, aren’t I?

Cameron: You want to talk about problems? I just lost my summer job that I’ve worked years to get. And now there’s people on the internet critiquing my performance in bed. And I’m in a weird space with my girlfriend.

Spencer: I’m sorry. You and Joss, you don’t deserve what’s happening to you.

Cameron: It didn’t just happen to us, okay? A crime was committed against us!

Spencer: I know. I —

Cameron: No, you don’t know, because you are not my friend! In fact, I want nothing to do with you! The way you have jerked Trina around, got her to lie for you and begged her to save you, and then the second your disgusting girlfriend —

Spencer: I know that Esme did it, okay?! And I know that she framed Trina! And now it is my turn to try to save her.

Maxie: Austin is a good man, Spinelli, and you would know that if you just gave him a chance.

Spinelli: He’s not worthy of you.

Maxie: You don’t think anyone’s worthy of me. I really like him, and I’d like to see where this goes. Can you accept that?

Spinelli: I suppose I’ll have to.

Maxie: That’s the spirit.

Spencer: Trina’s innocent. I’ve always believed that.

Cameron: Really?

Spencer: Really.

Cameron: Or are you just telling yourself that?

Spencer: Come on.

Cameron: So then why are you pretending to be on team Esme?

Spencer: Because I am trying to get Esme to lower her guard so that she can lead me to something, anything, that will exonerate Trina.

Cameron: That sounds really shady.

Spencer: I’m sorry, Cam. Do you have a better idea?

Cameron: No, but is it really worth hurting Trina?

Spencer: You should’ve seen the look in Trina’s eyes when I just left her at the gallery. It gutted me. And I haven’t been able to lose that feeling since I stupidly left with Esme the night of our ski trip.

Cameron: You mean that? You do have feelings for Trina. Okay. Well, uh, looks like we both have problems.

Josslyn: Hey. Are you okay?

Trina: This sounded like a good idea, but now that I’m here —

Josslyn: Spencer’s not working.

Trina: It’s not that.

Josslyn: I get it. I mean, when the video came out, I didn’t want to go anywhere. I didn’t want to come here. I didn’t want to go to the metro court. Especially not class. But then I realized hiding… it really doesn’t help. In fact, it actually makes things worse.

Trina: I’m not hiding, per se. I just don’t want to feel like I’m put under a microscope.

Josslyn: Well, the microscope, it’s not real.

Trina: You sure about that?

Josslyn: Besides, it’ll be good for us to be seen together. Would I really be hanging out with the person who made a sex tape of me and my boyfriend?

Trina: Probably not, no.

Josslyn: No, probably not. So let’s go inside, heads held high, let’s order dessert.

Trina: Well, speak for yourself, because I’m ordering potato wedges.

Josslyn: Oh, you rebel!

Trina: Right?

Josslyn: After you.

Carly: How am I?

Drew: Bit of a loaded question, I see.

Carly: [ Laughs ] I just want to come out swinging and fix everything. But it’s Josslyn’s fight, not mine.

Drew: Hmm. Still, feel pretty good to get out there and lay into somebody.

Carly: Not somebody. Esme Prince.

Drew: Spencer’s girlfriend, right?

Carly: That’s right. She made and sent that video, and then she framed Trina.

Drew: Now, are we trusting your instincts on this? Which I-I absolutely do — or — or is this based on fact?

Carly: A little bit of both.

Drew: Okay. Fair enough.

Carly: I mean, this girl has a history of deviant behavior way beyond sneakiness or manipulation.

Drew: Straight-up evil?

Carly: Yeah. And this so-called evidence against Trina, it’s all circumstantial, not to mention ridiculously convenient. I know Trina. She would never do something like this. So that’s where I’m at. You know, I just want all this to be over. I-I want Josslyn, Trina, and Cameron to move on with their lives, and I want Esme to go down.

Drew: Meaning you want to take her down?

Carly: Hell yeah.

Drew: I get that. I do. That’s how I felt about Peter August. You know, I wanted it to be me to get the evidence, me to put him away, me… after he escaped yet another conviction, to be the guy to shoot him.

Carly: Yeah.

Drew: And end that miserable life. But… that’s not how it panned out.

[ Police radio chatter ]

Brando: It’s okay. I’m fine. Okay?

Sasha: That was so dangerous.

Brando: And sexy, though, right? Don’t forget sexy.

Sasha: You could’ve been killed, Brando.

Brando: Yeah. Look, I had to do something.

Sasha: Just promise not to make it a habit.

Brando: Promise. I’m not going anywhere.

Nina: Geez. I’m just glad Phyllis wasn’t here for all of this.

Sonny: I’m sorry you were.

Nina: [ Sighs ] Thank you for protecting me.

Sonny: You know what? You — you protect me from Baldwin… I’ll always protect you.

[ Both chuckle ]

Dante: [ Clears throat ] Hey. You, uh, up to answering a few questions, or do you think you need a minute?

Dante: Uh, so Phyllis and the bodyguard, they’re outside being questioned. They — they were at the bank when these perps arrived?

Sonny: That’s right.

Dante: You think these guys knew that you owned Charlie’s? Because if they did… and they hit the place anyway, that’s a pretty bold move.

Brando: I should, uh, go talk to Dante so we can get out of here and go home.

Nina: Sasha. I think you know what I’m gonna say.

Spinelli: Most gracious of greetings. Oh. Has — has something undesirable transpired?

Sam: Yeah. You could say that.

Spinelli: Well, I-I c-certainly don’t want to push, but… if you’re inclined to share.

Sam: I just ruined my relationship.

Carly: You still think about it? The Peter thing?

Drew: Yeah. Yeah, but I’m learning to be okay with it, so hopefully you can benefit from that experience and prepare yourself. Esme has wronged people that you care about, and it may not be you who puts her right.

Carly: Okay, well, that’s hard.

Drew: It is. I got to remind myself not to go so far down that rabbit hole that it wrecks the things I do have.

Carly: Well, in all fairness, Peter’s dead, so you can’t Chase after him.

Drew: That’s true, but there’s always somebody, right? I mean, can go after Victor, and I will when the opportunity arises, but I’m just not gonna devote my whole life to it, because that’s not gonna get me anywhere.

Carly: I feel like that’s my problem. It’s like I’m standing here and I’m looking at the rest of my life without Sonny, and I… I don’t know what that looks like, or what it means.

Drew: But that’s okay. You’ve got time to figure that out.

Carly: But I’m not. Figuring it out? I’m not. I-I’m pouring my energy into everything and anything else. Josslyn, Trina, Esme. And like you said, I’m getting nowhere. Maybe it’s time I pour that energy into me.

Spinelli: Dante caught you with your hand in the proverbial cookie jar.

Sam: Yep.

Spinelli: How did you leave matters?

Sam: With Dante saying that… he can’t trust me, and without trust, it won’t work. I’m afraid he’s not wrong.

Austin: Do you wanna talk about that?

Chase: Not with you. Thanks.

Austin: Fair enough. Look, man, when — when I had that conversation with you about your marriage with Willow, I had an ulterior motive. And I regret that. For what it’s worth, that’s not the kind of behavior I ever want to repeat.

Chase: I said no to Brook Lynn, which I don’t often do.

Austin: I can’t imagine anybody does.

Chase: But it’s not just that. I insulted her without meaning to. And it’s not the first time. I don’t know. Maybe Brook Lynn’s decided she’s done with me.

Austin: How would you feel about that?

Brook Lynn: Good thing Spinelli didn’t take Austin out. Not that I’d care, though you seem to like the guy.

Maxie: Should we talk about the guy you like?

Brook Lynn: No. Thank you. Chase apologized not just for not singing my song, but the way he rejected me.

Maxie: That’s a start.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ]

Maxie: What is it that’s really bothering you, Brook Lynn? The fact that Chase said no to your song or that he didn’t do what he normally does, come running when you call?

Spencer: Thanks. [ Clears throat ]

Cameron: You have to tell Trina that you believe her.

Spencer: I can’t.

Cameron: She knows how to keep a secret.

Spencer: It’s not Trina that I don’t trust. What if she tells her lawyer? Scott Baldwin is also Ava’s lawyer. And now with Esme living at Wyndemere, we can’t risk this getting back to her, tipping her off.

Cameron: Okay. But what if you testify at the trial? That would be a huge blow to the prosecution.

Spencer: Yeah, true, but not foolproof. We need something that will guarantee that Trina walks away from these charges.

Cameron: Even if it means that she hates you?

Spencer: Even if.

Cameron: I’m sorry… for, uh, blowing up earlier.

Spencer: Don’t worry about it. You’re right. I’ve been an ass.

Cameron: Well, that’s because you were protecting your friend.

Spencer: Just like you. Which is why Trina can’t know. And, uh, neither can Josslyn.

Trina: So, how are we gonna nail Esme?

Josslyn: Taste of her own medicine — somehow record her confessing.

Trina: To who? The only person she would admit it to is Spencer. And he’s already gone to the dark side.

Josslyn: There has to be a way.

Trina: Well, at the gallery, you said that you left Cam at his house.

Josslyn: Yeah.

Trina: That seems kinda… weird. It’s kinda early for y’all to end the night. Is everything okay with you two? Well, you know —

Josslyn: Yeah. Yeah, everything’s fine. You know, there’s been a couple bumps along the way. I mean, how could there not be? But we’ll — we’re gonna figure it out.

Trina: You better ’cause Esme cannot take one more thing from us. What’s wrong?

Josslyn: There’s this guy, he keeps staring at us. Excuse me. Hi. Which one of us are you looking at? The video star or the criminal mastermind?

Cameron: There is no way I’m keeping this from Joss.

Spencer: You have to. You know how Joss and Trina are. They talk about everything. This will be no exception.

Cameron: Then why’d you tell me?

Spencer: Because you basically forced me into it, Cameron.

Cameron: Oh, so it’s my fault now?

Spencer: No, but Trina can’t know, and if we’re gonna keep it that way, then neither can Joss.

Cameron: She’d want to help.

Spencer: Exactly. You know the saying about too many cooks in the kitchen. Cameron, this needs to be a solo operation.

Cameron: This is unfair.

Spencer: Okay, fine. I’m sorry. Sorry I put you in a bad position.

Cameron: Yeah, well, I’m here.

Spencer: I need you to promise. Swear to me right now. This stays between us.

Cameron: You know, I can’t tell if this plan of yours is noble or idiotic. You know, it’s probably both.

Spencer: I’m just trying to redeem myself.

Cameron: Or maybe you’re trying to be Trina’s sole hero. Either way, you are in way over your head.

Josslyn: You get your money’s worth?

Trina: Joss, it’s not what you think. I know him.

Josslyn: You know him?

Rory: Um, sorry if I was staring.

Trina: I remember you… Mr. Invisible. The cop that gave me the soda.

Rory: I did bring you a soda, but I don’t recall wearing my invisibility cloak at the time.

Trina: I wanted to be alone at the courthouse, and…

Rory: And I said I would be invisible.

Trina: Yeah.

Rory: That’s right. [ Chuckles ]

Trina: Uh, um, this is my friend Josslyn. Um, Joss, this is officer…

Rory: Um, you can call me Rory.

Josslyn: Uh, it’s nice to meet you. I’m so, so, so sorry. I didn’t recognize you outside of the courthouse. And especially not in uniform.

Rory: No, it’s okay. It’s cool. Um, I get it. I’m just glad Trina has some friends that look out for her. Keep your chin up, okay? It’s good to see you.

Trina: You, too.

Rory: Josslyn, very nice to meet you as well.

Josslyn: Oh, my god. You know, I-I’ve had a really nice life, but can the floor just swallow me whole? Trina! I just reamed a cop.

Trina: You sure did.

[ Chuckles ]

Drew: You really seem to be handling your divorce pretty well. You know, you — you chose yourself.

Carly: I did. My life. What’s right for me. And of course that meant letting Sonny go. And it wasn’t easy, but it was right. You know?

Drew: A survivor in the best possible way, you know, not pushing people down and trying to climb over people, just — just resilient. Man, I want to be like that.

Carly: I’m sorry. How are you not like that? Seriously, if anyone has been dealt crappy hand after crappy hand and managed to get up and keep going, it’s you. You amaze me. You do. I mean, I would hate the whole world. I would be a horrible, vengeful person.

Drew: No, you would not.

Carly: I would.

Drew: You would not. You would be — you would — you would be who you are.

Carly: Who is that?

Drew: No, I’m not — no, no, no, no. I’m not going there. Why not? I’m not gonna try and define Carly Corinthos.

Carly: Why?

Drew: Because. You’re — you’re undefinable.

Spinelli: What may have felt harmless to you was c-certainly not harmless to Dante.

Sam: Yeah, I know. I — I get that now.

Spinelli: Right. So… so tell him. Y-you appreciate the — the stability and — and safety you have with Dante, yeah? Well, th-then it stands to reason that he would appreciate the same.

Sam: Well, I thought I was giving that to him. I mean, I want to give that to him.

Spinelli: You will. Look, you made one mistake. Mistakes can be rectified.

Sam: Okay, but…what if I don’t get another chance?

Nina: I’m so grateful that you and Brando came back. You and your husband really saved the day.

Sasha: That was all Brando.

Nina: Must be really proud of him.

Sasha: I’ll be proud once my heart stops pounding. How — what about you? That must have been terrifying.

Nina: Yeah. I am. They wanted to take my necklace.

Sasha: Hey. Even if they’d succeeded, a mother’s love can’t be stolen.

Brando: It seemed like amateur hour with those two yahoos. I mean, could be a coincidence they hit up Charlie’s.

Dante: I don’t know. I don’t think it’s any secret that Sonny’s the owner here. And if they cased the place, they’d know for sure. Hey, um, excuse me a minute. I’ll be back to take your statement, okay, Brando?

Brando: Yeah.

Sonny: Thank you.

Brando: Ah, please. You could’ve taken ’em both down.

Sonny: Maybe. Glad I didn’t have to.

Brando: It was pure luck we came back.

Sonny: Why did you?

Brando: [ Sighs ] Well, seems trivial now, but, um, we forgot to invite you to the wedding reception that Deception’s throwing us.

Sonny: It’s not trivial, ’cause I — I can’t wait to celebrate with you and Sasha. Hey, um… you think those crooks… didn’t know that I had a connection to this place?

Brando: Um… it’s possible they just didn’t care.

Maxie: Well, Brook Lynn and i have a class to take. Dance cardio waits for no one.

Brook Lynn: Least of all us. It already started.

Maxie: What? Diamond doesn’t let anyone in late.

Austin: Well, maybe dance cardio’s loss can be our gain.

Chase: Post-workout smoothies?

Maxie: [ Gasps ] Unearned?

Brook Lynn: Best kind.

Maxie: Well, are you buying?

Austin: You know, I seem to have lost my wallet. You wanna come help me look for it?

Maxie: Sure.

Austin: Hmm.

Chase: Come on. You can tell me how it felt to hear your song performed.

Brook Lynn: Only if you’re buying.

Chase: Deal.

Trina: Thank you, Joss. I was feeling so sorry for myself. But tonight, the fresh air, the French fries, the epic freak-out — like, it just made me feel normal again. Just even for a minute.

Josslyn: Well, if that’s the case, I should berate strangers more often.

Trina: [ Chuckles ] Maybe just Spencer.

Josslyn: He does not deserve your friendship, Trina. And he can forget about ever having mine again.

Trina: You don’t have to ditch Spencer just because he ditched me.

Josslyn: Um, yes, I do. My loyalty is to you always. And I know that Cam feels the same way. Our days of enabling Spencer are over.

Spencer: So, is that a no? You’re not gonna help me? Look, I know I can be a really lame friend.

Cameron: Yeah, the lamest.

Spencer: And, yeah, I’m single-handedly trying to save the day. But I really think I can do it, Cam. It’s a lot to ask, but I need you to trust me.

Cameron: Fine. You win. I won’t tell Joss.

Spencer: Thank you.

Cameron: But you better find something on Esme that exonerates Trina.

Spencer: I will.

Cameron: This is the last time I stick my neck out for you. Don’t make me regret it.

Carly: What are we toasting to?

Drew: Resilience. Something we obviously have in common.

Carly: Okay. Wouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t have to be, though? I mean, if life could just be easy once in a while?

Drew: Who says it won’t be? I mean… we’re just getting started, right?

Carly: I guess we are.

Spinelli: Dante will come around. How do you know? Because what mere mortal could stay angry with you?

Sam: [ Chuckles ] Well, I hope you’re right.

Spinelli: Just don’t make the same mistake I made, okay? Let Dante know he comes first.

Sasha: Dante.

Dante: Yeah?

Sasha: Do you know how much longer this will take? I-I’m — I’m not feeling so hot.

Dante: Uh, y-you know what? Why don’t you tell Brando to come down to the station in the morning, he can give a statement then?

Sasha: Thank you.

Dante: Okay. Have a better rest of your night, all right?

Sasha: Yeah, you too.

Dante: Thanks.

Nina: Hey. You’re really shaken up, aren’t you?

Sasha: I could’ve lost Brando tonight. And after losing Liam, I-I — I don’t think I’d be able to survive it.

Dante: Uh, just tell Commissioner Ashford I’ll have an update for her as soon as I’m done here.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Brando: I overheard some chit-chat at the garage. Now, I didn’t think it was legit, but then tonight happened. There’s a perception that your base of power isn’t what it used to be. And with only two families covering the territories and Jason gone, up-and-comers are sensing an opening.

Sonny: My operation is stretched thin. Even with Brick stepping up, my business is — is vulnerable. And now with these two clowns… …every lowlife punk is gonna think that, you know, it’s open season.

Brando: So what are you gonna do?

Sonny: I’m gonna remind everybody… …that I’m the boss.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Chase (on phone): Relax, I’ve got this covered.

Laura (to Lucy): I know you’re still dating my brother.

Finn (to Elizabeth): You can’t possibly think that the threat is over.

Alexis: Maybe there’s something more to it than that.

Harmony (on phone): That’s what I’m hoping for.

Willow (to Michael): I just want it to be over.

Carly (to Sonny): Your enemies are smelling blood in the water.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Victor: Sweetheart, please answer your mother’s questions. Are you saying that, after all the betrayal and all the lies, you still feel love for ashland locke?

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Do I love him? Or do I hate him? I mean, does it really matter?

Nick: Yeah. It does. We need to know if you have cut ties with ashland. I’m very concerned about the emotional toll this has taken on you. If you still have feelings for him, it’s gonna be much, much worse.

Victoria: Yes, nicholas, the feelings that I had for ashland were very strong, and they are not simply gonna go away overnight, even after finding out that he’s been lying to me for months.

Nick: Not just lying.

Victoria: I know what he’s done, nick. But what I’m saying is, whatever residual emotion there is left in my heart, it doesn’t matter. What matters is the crimes that he’s committed against me and this family. What matters is this plan to get him out of our lives and out of our company.

Nikki: But, darling, the plan seems to be falling apart.

Victor: Are you saying locke is having second thoughts?

Nikki: [ Sighs ] Now he doesn’t know if he wants to set adam up. Even though adam agreed to go along with it, ashland may not follow through.

Victor: Are you telling me that this is all off the rail now, this whole plan?

Sally: Thank you.

[ Sighs ]

Ashland: [ Sighs ] You have my attention.

Adam: Huh. Well, I would hope so. Half a billion dollars is, uh, hard to ignore. All you have to do is walk away from victoria and newman/locke.

Ashland: Well, I’m not exactly strapped for cash, but, uh, that is a substantial amount of money.

Adam: It’s enough to go anywhere that is not genoa city. You know, you could buy yourself a private island, buy a business, rebuild your empire. You could build a rocket and blast yourself into space. I don’t really care. But most importantly, you would get a drama-free exit with no questions asked.

Ashley: Are you spying on the neighbors?

Traci: [ Laughs ] No!

[ Laughs ]

Ashley: You know, seeing you like this, traci, reminds me when we were little. Daddy would go on business trips, and the day he was returning home, you would be here all day long, waiting for him to walk through that door. Do you remember that?

Traci: I remember vividly. I just — I just loved it when he came home from a trip. It just felt better when he was here with us, you know? Safer.

Ashley: Yeah. Plus, he always brought us presents from wherever he’d been, right?

Traci: Yeah. That helped.

Ashley: And here you are all these years later standing here and waiting for jack in the exact same spot.

Traci: Well, I just want to hear about los angeles. And I want to hear what happened with his granddaughter, allie. He’ll be here any minute.

Ashley: Maybe he’ll bring you a present.

Traci: Oh, that would be nice!

[ Laughs ] I just — I really hope the trip went the way he wanted it to.

Ashley: Me too.

Traci: [ Chuckles ]

Phyllis: Thank you. It’s so chivalrous of you to bring in my bag. Um, you don’t need to.

Jack: I just wanted to make sure you got settled in.

Phyllis: Thank you. I wish there was something i could do for you.

Jack: Are you joking? You have been such a help. It feels like you’ve been by my side for weeks now.

Phyllis: You know what i mean. I wish there was something i could do for you right this moment.

Jack: Can you call kyle and tell him his mother’s actually alive and wants to be part of his life now?

Phyllis: Well, I’m gonna stay away from that. In fact, I don’t even want to talk to summer right now. I’m afraid it’ll slip.

Jack: No, I have to be the one to tell him. Boy, am I not looking forward to that conversation.

Phyllis: No, but you have to do it before diane does. I mean —

Jack: Yeah, I just don’t know how he’s gonna react. Never in a million years did i imagine I would be in this situation. Poor kyle.

[ Breathes deeply ]

provided by…

Jack: The whole situation is just a mess.

Phyllis: Yeah.

Jack: It’s not just kyle’s reaction. Allie was dragged into the middle of this. That trip was supposed to be about me spending time with her, getting to know her. The whole thing was ruined by diane’s intrusion.

Phyllis: Yeah. Diane is a master manipulator. That’s for sure. Hey, I don’t want to talk about her. Let’s talk about allie. That was a good trip. I think you made progress with her. I really do. She’s a very smart, capable girl. I think that, uh, you made a real connection. That’s what I think. And there’s nothing that diane can say or do to ruin that.

Jack: Thank you for keeping things positive. When did you become a cockeyed optimist?

Phyllis: Just calling it like I see it.

[ Cellphone buzzes ]

Jack: Oh. Bear with me. It’s billy. He wants to know how my trip went. Well, I guess I have to break the news to all of my siblings at the same time. Wish me luck. I’m about to blow up a good old-fashioned abbott family meeting.

Victoria: Ashland was adamant that he didn’t want me to cross an ethical line. He felt that if — if I helped him to frame adam, it would corrupt me and there would be no coming back from that. He also suggested that the two of us run away together.

Victor: He’s testing you. He’s suspicious. He wants to know you’re on his side.

Nikki: That’s what I thought, too. He’s no dummy.

Nick: By that, you mean he is sneaky and a criminal.

Victor: Of course he is. We don’t know what he’s gonna do.

Nick: Well, he may catch on to what we’re up to.

Victor: If he even gets a hint of our plan, we need to rethink it.

Nick: I agree. The more I think about it, the more reservations I have.

Nikki: What we need to be concerned about is —

Victoria: I can handle myself. I can handle ashland. This plan is solid. I chose to bring you all in on it. I trusted you to help me. I just told you how committed i am to seeing it through, and you still don’t trust me.

Ashland: See, I think accepting a deal like this, as generous as it may seem, uh, may appear to be an admission of guilt.

Adam: [ Chuckles ]

[ Laughs ] Are you still playing this game?

Ashland: What game is that?

Adam: The one where we all pretend like you’re still innocent. Come on. Get over yourself, locke. There’s enough evidence out there. You never had cancer. You preyed on victoria’s emotions to get your hands on my family’s company. And I don’t care about that. I’m not judging. My past is littered with similar schemes, okay? You saw an angle. You played it. Good for you. But now it’s over. Make it easy on yourself. Get paid. Get out of this. With your reputation intact.

Ashland: You make it sound like it’s a generous offer and that you care about your sister, but this is really all about your own self-interest, isn’t it?

Adam: [ Chuckles ] I have the family’s interest at heart.

Ashland: Yeah, but if you get me out of the picture, then you can set your sights on victoria and you can make your move to be ceo of the company.

Adam: Look, I don’t think that my motives should play a role in your decision.

Ashland: Fair enough. $500 million. And you claim you’re representing victor and the family.

Adam: That’s right.

Ashland: How do I know that’s true? Does victor even know you’re making this offer?

Adam: [ Chuckles ] (Dramatic music)

Victor: Sweetheart, this is not about distrusting you. But you’ve got to realize that ashland locke is backpedaling from your plan because he is suspicious.

Victoria: Or maybe he is seriously conflicted. Maybe it’s possible to be this ruthless and to also love me and want to protect me. The two of those ideas are not mutually exclusive.

Victor: Well…

[ Sighs ] Maybe you’re right. It’s possible.

Victoria: That’s very ironic, coming from you.

Victor: What do you mean by that?

Nikki: She is comparing the dynamic she has with ashland to what you and I have. Now, you can be ruthless, yet you love me. You always want to protect me. And I have always loved you, even at your worst. And vice versa. But I can’t bring myself to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Victor: Sweetheart, the situations are different.

Victoria: The hell they are.

Victor: Ashland locke is a complete narcissist. That beautiful wedding in tuscany — if he had been a man, he would have come to you and told you about his past, about his lies! He would have begged you for forgiveness.

Nick: Or at least before he signed that contract to be co-ceo.

Victor: He used you, sweetheart. I hate to say this. He would have tossed you away as soon as he thought he had benefited enough. Trust me, I’m gonna make that bastard pay for the pain he has caused you. But you’ve seen enough now. You’ve seen what he has done. Don’t question your plan now.

Adam: You give me more credit than I deserve. I mean, you really think I have the, uh, temerity and the guts to make a deal like this without my father’s approval?

Ashland: Oh, I wouldn’t put anything past you. But you’re probably right. $500 million does cross a line. Victor would have to sign off on that. I think the amount, though… is really interesting, don’t you? I mean, if your father chose that number, that’s a bit cruel, don’t you think?

Adam: No, I’d say it’s quite generous, actually.

Ashland: Oh, no, no, I don’t mean cruel toward me. Toward you. I mean, I happen to know that $500 million is exactly the amount of money your father was forced to pay his other children when they sued him over their trusts. Victoria, nick, even abby. But not you.

Adam: Well, uh, if you did your research properly, you would know that, um, I was not a part of that lawsuit.

Ashland: Well, no, but it still seems unfair, don’t you think? I mean, you never got that kind of money from your father.

Adam: [ Chuckles ]

Ashland: It’s almost as if he was saying to you that you weren’t in the same league as his other children, as your siblings. That’s got to hurt.

Adam: Yeah. That was a nice try. Really. But I’m doing just fine.

Ashland: Okay. Still, though, to have to prove yourself over and over and over again to the old man — that has to be exhausting.

Adam: Yeah. My father and I are, uh, in a great place, actually. And as for the amount, which he and I agreed on, uh, I wouldn’t over-analyze it. We just were looking for the exact number necessary to get you out of our lives — and not a penny more.

Billy: Jack said to meet him here and he’ll fill us in when he arrives.

Traci: Fill us in on what? I mean, he never said anything to me.

Billy: Patience, darling. He’s on his way.

Ashley: Traci’s very anxious to welcome a new member into our family, obviously.

Traci: I am. It’s so exciting. I just — I just hope that jack and allie were able to find ways to forge a new connection.

[ Door opens ] Oh!

Jack: Oh, good, you’re all here.

Billy: Hey.

Traci: Jack. How did it go? Does allie want to go ahead with the relationship? When are we gonna get to meet her?

Billy: Just so you know, uh, traci’s already photoshopped her into our family portrait.

Traci: If I knew anything about how to do that, I would have.

Ashley: How are you? How’d it go?

Jack: First let me say this. It is so good to see these three faces in this house. We don’t do this enough. We all know how important family is. This should be a regular occurrence.

Traci: That is a wonderful idea, and I agree.

Billy: We all agree, but you’re stalling. What’s going on?

Jack: Allie. Have a seat.

Traci: Okay.

Jack: Allie is lovely. She’s pretty. She’s bright. She’s curious. She’s thoughtful. She reminded me of keemo from time to time.

Traci: Oh, that’s so nice.

Jack: But more than anything, she reminded me of you.

Ashley: Me?

Jack: Yes. Clear-eyed, critical-thinking. She’s working on her master’s in chemical engineering. I know how skeptical you have been about this whole situation. There’s someone else who’s even more skeptical — allie. I think you two are gonna hit it off when you finally meet.

Traci: Oh, I like the sound of that. So, when is she coming to visit?

Jack: Hopefully very soon. First I need to tell you all about something else that happened in los angeles.

Ashley: What is it?

Traci: Uh-oh. You look a little unsettled.

Jack: There’s no easy way to say this, no simple way to prepare you.

Ashley: Okay. What happened?

Jack: I learned the identity of the mysterious texter, the person who’d been luring me out to los angeles to keemo’s house. In fact, she ultimately bought keemo’s house.

Traci: Wait, “she”?

Jack: She. No matter who we considered, i never allowed for this possibility because it wasn’t possible.

Ashley: Jack, what are you talking about? Who is she?

Jack: Diane jenkins. She’s alive. One fateful morning,

Adam: Well, I think we covered everything. Except, of course, a deadline.

Ashland: Why does there have to be a deadline?

Adam: [ Chuckles ] Because we’re not gonna drag this out, okay? This is a one-time offer. You can take it, or you can leave it, but it expires today.

Ashland: It’s a lot to consider. What if I need more time?

Adam: You have one hour, okay? If you agree to the deal, the money will be wired into an account of your choosing tomorrow morning. And if not…good luck surviving what comes next.

Nick: Vick, we’re all just trying to look out for you.

Nikki: It may seem heavy-handed.

Victoria: “Seems”? It is heavy-handed.

Nikki: We don’t want you to feel attacked. We just need to get through to you.

Victoria: I don’t appreciate being told how to feel.

Nick: But you still don’t have affection for this guy, right?

Victoria: Oh, just give me some time to think about it, nicholas. It seems like every time we talk, it always comes back to your lack of faith in my ability to make good decisions.

Nikki: Honey, it’s just that we want to make sure you have a clear view of the situation.

Victoria: I just need time. I need some time right now away from all of you to think about this.

Nick: [ Sighs ]

Amanda: Well, hello.

Phyllis: Hey. How are you? Are you meeting somebody here?

Amanda: Uh, yeah. Yeah, I’m here to see someone very important, actually.

Phyllis: Who?

Amanda: You.

Phyllis: Me?

Amanda: Yes.

Phyllis: Oh.

Amanda: Yeah, and I came by yesterday, and someone told me that you were out of town.

Phyllis: Yeah. Yeah, I went to L.A.

Amanda: [ Gasps ] You did?

Phyllis: Yeah, jack went to california, and I — I flew there to meet him.

Amanda: Okay. Well, hopefully you got to do something fun this time around. Sightseeing? The beach?

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ] No, this trip definitely was not fun. Um, jack is dealing with the whole, you know, death of his son, keemo, and… yeah, it was one revelation after the other.

Amanda: I’m sorry. You know I just went through that same drama with my family, so I know how intense it can be.

Phyllis: Yeah. Yeah, “intense” doesn’t even begin to describe it.

Billy: I’m sorry. Please tell me that this is some kind of sick joke.

Jack: Not at all.

Traci: Okay, is possible that you only think diane’s alive? Maybe the texter’s messing with with your head.

Jack: Diane is alive. I saw her. I talked to her more than once.

Billy: How — how is that possible? They found her body.

Ashley: This is insane.

Traci: O-okay, let’s focus on what’s important. Diane, who miraculously came back from the dead after all these years, knew that keemo passed away and knew of the existence of allie?

Jack: Yes, that’s right.

Traci: So she’s gonna take this information and try to insinuate herself back into your life.

Jack: That’s not the way she would put it.

Ashley: Well, of course not because she could rationalize any horrible thing she’s ever done.

Jack: She was hoping that by bringing me and allie together, she could gain my forgiveness, at least enough forgiveness that I would allow her to re-establish a relationship with kyle.

Traci: Oh, no. Poor kyle.

Billy: And let me guess — she wants to be a mother again after all these years?

Ashley: You’re not gonna let that happen.

Jack: I was as outraged as you are by her demands. I know this is a lot to take in, and I’m asking you to keep this between us. I told you this because i haven’t told kyle yet, and i have to tell him soon.

Traci: Are you sure?

Jack: His mother’s alive. I can’t keep that from him. Look, and this has to be told in person. I can’t do this over the phone. So I’ve encouraged him to come here to genoa city in the next couple of weeks and I will tell him then.

Traci: But, jack, what is this gonna do to him, though? He grieved and suffered when she died. How could she put him through this?

Ashley: Because she’s inherently selfish.

Billy: Okay, can we go back to the beginning? How is this woman not dead?

Jack: You’re not gonna believe this.

Ashley: You know, when it comes to diane, I’d believe just about anything. So, please tell us — how did this bitch come back into our lives? What can I du with less asthma?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Jack: She knew the whole town hated her, she felt the walls closing in, and she faked her own death.

Billy: By herself?

Jack: With the help of deacon sharpe.

Traci: No way.

Billy: So, what has she been doing after all these years?

Jack: Well, she claims she’s been rehabilitating herself. She’s turned her life around. She’s looking at a happier, healthier future.

Ashley: Please. You didn’t buy any of that.

Jack: Not for one second.

Ashley: Thank god.

Jack: Everything you’re feeling — the anger, the shock, the outrage — I felt tenfold when I saw her face-to-face. And I haven’t forgotten one thing she did to me. The lies, the games, using kyle’s custody as a weapon. And, ashley, I have not forgotten what she did to you.

Ashley: Where do I even start? She slept with my fiancé. She blackmailed me. What she did to my daughter. And then her so-called death. We were all turned into suspects. Our lives were turned completely upside down the entire time she was alive. Even you hate her, and you try to think the best of everybody.

Traci: Well, she takes pleasure in wreaking havoc.

Ashley: She does. I just wish she’d crawl back under that rock she climbed out from under.

Billy: Well, she’s not going to, so please tell me you have a plan on how to deal with her — because she is a potential threat to half of this town. What do you think she’s gonna do next?

Jack: [ Sighs ]

Nick: Well, it’s probably my fault she took off. I was just trying to be supportive, but I probably came on too strong.

Nikki: Darling, you were coming from a good place. But that didn’t make it any easier for her.

Victor: [ Sighs ] Do you think we were too tough on her?

Nikki: We said what needed to be said.

Nick: I just wish she would have received it better, you know? I got to go. Uh, call me if anything comes up?

Victor: Okay, son.

Nikki: Alright.

[ Door closes ]

Nikki: Well, I’m gonna stay. I have a little work to do. I have a feeling victoria will be back sooner rather than later.

Victor: I’ll stick around, okay?

Nikki: Good. I think, when she has a chance to process everything, she’ll calm down.

Victor: [ Sighs ] You mean and realize that we were right?

Nikki: Oh, well, I don’t know about that. But hopefully we can all have a civil conversation. And we’ll take it from there. Together.

Victor: Yeah.

Sally: Wait. What? A half a billion dollars, and ashland didn’t say yes immediately?

Adam: Uh, well, he didn’t turn it down immediately, either, which suggests he is considering it.

Sally: So, you think he’s just gonna take the money and run?

Adam: He should. I mean, I made quite a strong case. But, uh, nothing’s for certain until I hear from him.

Sally: Well, I hope you get the answer that you want. But either way, for what it’s worth, I think you handled it masterfully.

Adam: Well, it’s worth a lot.

Sally: I have another question.

Adam: Oh, look who’s here.

Sally: Do you want to go somewhere else? I mean, in case you’re not in the mood to deal with her?

Adam: No, no, no. It’s okay. I, um — I have to talk to her for a moment. Do you, uh, want to get us a table?

Sally: Yeah.

Adam: So, how is the plan coming along? Any indication that ashland’s gonna make another move?

Victoria: You sound concerned.

Adam: Uh, well, I am a little bit. No one’s hacked into my computer today to plant fake evidence. So, if ashland is planning on committing a criminal conspiracy, he’s moving at a snail’s pace.

Victoria: I don’t really want to get into it, but there may be a change in plans. Motrin works fast to stop pain where it starts.

Ashley: Jack, clearly you see that her leading you to allie is just another one of diane’s games.

Jack: She claims it isn’T.

Ashley: Oh, jack.

Jack: She claims that she honestly wants to make amends with kyle. Look, my first instinct was to say, “hell, no.” To do what I could to protect kyle from any more pain. But phyllis helped me realize… that it’s kyle’s choice to decide whether she’s gonna be in his life or not.

Ashley: Phyllis? You told phyllis all this before you told your own family?

Jack: Phyllis was with me in los angeles, yeah.

Ashley: Why?

Jack: Because she decided to fly out to support me, knowing it might be a little difficult with allie.

Ashley: Well, that was nice of her.

Jack: Yes, it was, and I’m glad she did because I’ve been spinning out of control ever since diane showed up. No. She kept me grounded. And that’s exactly what i needed.

Amanda: So, you just flew to california because jack asked you to?

Phyllis: Uh, I offered.

Amanda: So, a gesture like that — it feels like there is more than just friendship going on.

Phyllis: You’re interpreting gestures now, are you?

Amanda: Phyllis, I’m just saying that, you know, clearly your connection with jack is getting a little deeper.

Phyllis: You know, this trip… it’s not what you think.

Amanda: You don’t know what i think.

Phyllis: Yeah, I do know what you think because it’s what you’ve been thinking all along. Listen, um, what jack is going through right now is — is quite profound. And, um, I was sort of there as his advisor, a voice of reason.

Amanda: [ Chuckles ] Well, that doesn’t sound like you at all, phyllis.

Phyllis: Yeah, I know. On this trip, I really had to push against my basic instinct. Trust me.

Amanda: Well, if that doesn’t show how much you care about jack, I don’t know what does.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Just so there’s no misunderstanding… jack and I are just friends. Really. Especially now. What he needs is a friend. And what I need is a friend.

Amanda: Okay. Yes. You’ve convinced me, alright? But as your friend in a very different way than jack, I’m thinking that there is something very important that we must do.

Adam: What do you mean, there’s been a change in plans?

Victoria: You’ll know when you need to.

Adam: [ Sighs ] You really are a piece of work. I have put myself at risk to try to help you, and you can’t even do the bare minimum to keep me informed? It’s like I’m a lesser being than you, except when you need something from me.

Victoria: Would you please calm down.

Adam: Okay. Obviously, your plan didn’t work. You screwed it up, didn’t you?

Victoria: Not at all.

Adam: I told dad that this was not gonna work. There was too many moving parts. I knew it. Let me guess. Ashland saw through your deception and he’s backing off. You can’t try to control the world. It kind of sucks to find that out, doesn’t it?

Victoria: I have accomplished more than you’ll ever dream of.

Adam: Maybe because, uh, i haven’t been given the opportunity. Oh, you’ve been given plenty of chances, adam, and you’ve failed every time. Because you are who you are.

Ashland: Oh.

Nikki: Uh, victoria just stepped out. We’re not sure for how long.

Ashland: That’s fine. In fact, I’m, uh, glad to see you both here, especially you, victor.

Victor: Why is that?

Ashland: I was hoping we could discuss the offer adam just made.

Victor: What’s there to discuss?

Ashland: Well, primarily, I’d like to know if it was legit.

Victor: Why wouldn’t it be legit?

Ashland: It’s a great deal of money.

Victor: So?

Ashland: You must really want me out of here.

Victor: I do, indeed. The amount seemed appropriate.

Ashland: Maybe. But the fact that it came from adam seemed cold.

Victor: Really? Why?

Ashland: The amount. You see, I happen to know that that’s the exact same number that you were forced to hand over to each of your children except adam. So he was forced to relive that pain all over again.

Victor: Mm-hmm.

Ashland: Which I thought was heartless on your part.

Victor: [ Chuckles ]

Ashland: How exactly do you rationalize putting your own son in that position?

Victor: How the hell do you dare come in here and ask me about my relationship with my son, hmm? Question is, are you willing to accept the offer of $500 million and get the hell out of town?

Lean cuisine.

Adam: Victoria was clearly on the defensive, refusing to admit that she blew it with ashland. Her plan is a mess.

Sally: It’s a dumpster fire.

Adam: Mm-hmm. It just validates, uh, my decision to take matters into my own hands and, uh, create an alternative plan.

Sally: Right. But here’s what I was about to ask you before we saw victoria earlier. How is your dad gonna react to you offering ashland a huge amount of money without consulting with him first?

Adam: If ashland takes the deal and he leaves town, my dad will be fine with it. And if he turns it down… he doesn’t even need to know.

Ashland: I have not yet decided if I’m going to take this offer or not. One mustn’t rush into a decision of this magnitude. There’s so many angles to consider. I did think it was possible that adam was acting on his own.

Victor: You think he would agree to that sum of money without my permission?

Ashland: Funny. That’s exactly what he said. Maybe this offer is real. But there was a moment when you seemed to hesitate, as if i caught you off guard.

Victor: [ Chuckles ] You surmise correctly. I was stunned by your gall, your unmitigated gall, to walk into this office knowing full well that we are all aware of what you have done.

[ Door opens ]

Victoria: What’s going on here?

Ashland: A negotiation.

Victoria: What are you talking about?

Ashland: Well, adam — and perhaps your father — have just made me an offer of a whole lot of money to walk away from everything I have here in genoa city, including you. What do you think? Should I take the deal and go? Maybe I put you through enough pain. Maybe it’s time to put it to an end. Maybe we should just both move on.

Traci: “Grounded” is not usually a word I would use to describe phyllis, but I’m very glad that she was there to help you during these very horrible circumstances.

Jack: Phyllis was a life-saver. And she’s right about being honest with kyle. He deserves to know the truth. And if I don’t tell him, diane’s going to. She came this close to calling him. Thank god I talked her out of it, convinced her that I should be the one to tell him.

Ashley: Well, how incredibly generous of her. She doesn’t want to traumatize her son, so she’ll just leave it to you.

Jack: I am concerned how he’s gonna react, though. But if I tell him, I can warn him about diane, about the dark side of his mother that I tried so hard to keep from him when we all thought she was dead.

Traci: What if he lets her back in his life?

Jack: That’s his prerogative. All I can do is give him the facts, all of the facts. Look, he read about her in

restless style and all the things people said about her. There’s so much more to know. And, look, reading about her behavior and being affected by it is quite a different thing. We all know that.

Billy: Okay, so, you tell him, he’s gonna want to see her. Does that mean she’s coming back to town?

Ashley: No. You can’t let her come back to genoa city, jack. You have to know the ramifications that her presence would have.

Jack: I am well aware of the number of lives that will be impacted by this. Right now, I am concerned about what’s gonna happen to kyle and summer and harrison if diane finds her way back into kyle’s life.

Phyllis: What do you think we ought to do?

Amanda: A spa day. Yes, massages, facials, some time in the sauna. We can have some drinks while we get our nails done.

Phyllis: Okay. That’s tempting.

Amanda: Isn’t it?

Phyllis: Yeah.

Amanda: Come on.

Phyllis: [ Laughs ] I have so much work to catch up on.

Amanda: Okay, phyllis, honestly, were you even expecting to be back today?

Phyllis: No.

Amanda: Okay. So then today is a bonus day. So, if there is nothing urgent, then what better way to pamper yourself after a very long flight than relaxing with your favorite person in the whole wide world?

Phyllis: Okay. Oh, well, if you put it that way, let’s do it. Let’s go.

Amanda: [ Laughs ] Oh, wait. Shoot. Um, do you think we’ll be able to get an appointment?

Phyllis: Oh, I think I can work that out.

Amanda: Yeah?

[ Laughs ]

Phyllis: Uh, if anybody wants me, I’ll be in the spa.

Amanda: Let’s go!

Diane: Hi. I’m taylor jenson. I’m here to check in.

[ Sighs ] I’ll be staying her a while.

Proofread by Anita

Brando: Ooh! What about a place with its own dock?

Sasha: I like the sound of that.

Brando: Yeah. Hm. Uh, we are not imagining things, right?

Sasha: I keep pinching myself over how well deception’s stock did at the IPO.

Brando: You, Mrs. Corbin, are one very wealthy woman. And what’s mine is yours, Mr. Corbin. We’re a team. Which means that we can live in the home of our dreams.

Sasha: What are you dreaming about?

Sonny: There’s the happy couple!

Brando: Whoa, Sonny! Yo! Dante deck you after I left the gym?

Sonny: No, it wasn’t Dante, but it’s not important.

Brando: [ Laughs ] Uh, so, I just want to congratulate, uh, you on your marriage to my cousin. Um…you know… welcome home.

[ Laughter ]

Sasha: Thank you.

Sonny: To the family, right?

Brando: Yeah.

Sonny: Phyllis, do you know Brando and Sasha?

Phyllis: Ah, you’ve been to the pub a few times. My staff appreciates the large tips you leave.

[ Laughter ]

Sonny: Brando’s my cousin, and he and Sasha just got married.

Phyllis: [ Gasps ] Congratulations. Your drinks are on the house.

Brando: Ohh.

Phyllis: It’s always wonderful to see such a happy couple.

Brando: Thank you. W-we do appreciate it.

Sasha: We do. Thank you.

Phyllis: I heard you lost your son. You have my sincere condolences.

Sam: Why the change of venue? I think pizza would have been fine.

Dante: Y-yeah, pizza probably would have been fine, but I told you I wanted to do something special. Wanna go to the bar, get a drink?

Sam: Wait. Why all the fuss?

Danta: You ask a lot of questions, you know that?

Sam: [ Chuckles ] Says the detective.

Dante: Yeah, well, I guess neither of us can let anything go. It’s, uh, one of the things that makes us work.

Sam: One of the things.

Nina: I wish you could have joined me at the spa for some pampering.

Britt: Ugh. Me too. Unfortunately, I was working.

Liesl: She works too much. You need to enjoy yourself more. I tell her all the time.

Britt: I-I declare tonight a mother rant-free zone. Let’s just enjoy our dinner, okay?

Scott: Okay. Good. ‘Cause I’m starving.

Liesl: It’s so nice to have a family dinner like this. It’s unfortunate Maxie couldn’t join us. At least two of my precious girls are with me.

Scott: Yeah, y-you know, if you want a girls’ night out, I-I could just lickety-split.

Liesl: You’re part of the family, Scott. You’re not going anywhere.

Scott: Ooh. Good.

[ Chuckles ]

Ava: -Scott!

Scott: -Ooh!

Ava: I’m so glad I found you. I need you.

Josslyn: Ugh.

Cameron: You, uh, can’t concentrate?

Josslyn: I keep thinking about that call with my R.A.

Cameron: Well, I mean, she was just looking out for you.

Josslyn: Asking if I feel unsafe rooming with Trina. Trina’s my best friend, okay? And she did not secretly record us, and she did not post it. They should be more worried about Esme.

Cameron: We have to find evidence that links her to the recording. So then Trina can accept all the apologies from everyone who’s been blaming her.

Josslyn: Yeah, well, that does nothing to lessen the pain that Trina’s already feeling.

Spencer: Ava! What are you doing here?

Trina: Surprised to see I still have a job? Unlike you, Ava knows I didn’t make that video of Joss and Cam, so here I am.

Spencer: That’s not what I meant. I just didn’t know that you’d be working here tonight.

Trina: [ Scoffs ]

Spencer: I’m here to see Ava.

Trina: Yeah, I heard you calling for her. But Ava’s not here, so you can go. What are you waiting for?

Spencer: You.

Cameron: Uh, are you hungry? I can see if Aiden has any award-winning cookies left.

Josslyn: Award-winning?

Cameron: Yeah. He won a contest promoting national carrot day.

Josslyn: National carrot day. Really?

Cameron: Yeah. It’s a thing. He — he won it by baking carrot-ginger cookies.

Josslyn: Sounds weird.

Cameron: I know, but they were oddly delicious. Did you see my post about it?

Josslyn: No.

Cameron: I’m sorry. I-I forgot you deleted social media.

Josslyn: It’s okay. I mean, I deleted all of my accounts. There were too many accounts just to block. The trolls were out in full force, so…

Cameron: Look. The internet will find something else to fixate on very soon.

Josslyn: Yeah, until Trina’s trial starts up again and the whole thing blows up. God. I can’t even believe I’m saying those words — “Trina’s trial.” It’s insane that she’s been arrested.

Cameron: Yeah, she would never do anything so hurtful.

Josslyn: It has to be Esme. No doubt she’s confident that she’s pulled this off and she’s covered her tracks, but she is not that smart. There has to be evidence tying her to the video.

Cameron: And we have to find it before it’s too late.

Esme: Did Ms. Davis leave?

Nikolas: She did.

Esme: Alexis doesn’t want me here, does she?

Nikolas: All that matters is what I want. And I want you to stay.

Esme: Thank you. My hope is that I can help you and spence start to heal your relationship.

Nikolas: We’re making progress, don’t you think?

Esme: I don’t think. I know. Not that I’m surprised. More time I spend with you, the more I realize what a great father you are.

Sam: What are we really doing here? Not that I don’t love having, like, the best night ever.

Dante: I don’t know. It was just a really tough day at work. And then when I saw you, I remembered how lucky I am to have you in my life, and I wanted to make sure that you knew that.

Sam: Ohh. Believe me…I know it.

Ava: I’m sorry to interrupt. Scott, I-I-I need to borrow you. Just for a couple of moments. I-it’s important.

Liesl: You’re too late. Scott’s mine.

Scott: I-it’s okay, my schnitzel. I’ll be quick. Ladies.

Liesl: It’s so wonderful to have finally found my soul mate. The two of you are long overdue. At least Nina has someone in her sights —

Nina: [ Stammers ]

Liesl: So that leaves my Britta. Any news from the matchmaker, hm?

Nina: Matchmaker?

Scott: Ava, Ava, I-is this about you divorcing Nikolas again? ‘Cause I thought you were gonna give him more than 24 hours.

Ava: This isn’t about Nikolas. This is about his son.

Scott: What’s Spencer have to do with this?

Ava: I don’t want Spencer at the gallery. So I’d like for you to arrange for him to make his restitution someplace else, like picking up garbage or sweeping the street. Either would be good.

Scott: Is this about Trina?

Ava: Trina has been through enough, and I’m not gonna let Spencer hurt her anymore.

Trina: Why are you waiting for me?

Spencer: I need to know that you’re okay.

Trina: What do you think? I was arrested for something I didn’t even do. I had an arraignment hearing, which you didn’t even bother to show up to.

Spencer: I didn’t think that you would want me there.

Trina: I didn’t! And how could you possibly think that I’d be close to okay?

Spencer: Sorry. Poor word choice.

Trina: I guess that would really affect someone who was vicious enough to post a sex tape. But despite what you think, that person isn’t me.

Spencer: Trina, stop!

Sasha: Brando and I are planning a long life together. We’re looking for our first home.

Sonny: Well, if you need any help, just ask. But since Deception did so well in the IPO, you’re not gonna have any problems. And I am a happy investor myself, so… good luck with your house hunting. You feel bad for Brando and Sasha, don’t you?

Phyllis: Mm-hmm. You never get over losing a child. But at least Sasha and Brando have each other. They can focus on building a life together.

Sonny: Yeah, they seem to be doing good. So, h-how’s your — how’s everything going with you?

Phyllis: Well, look around. Business is booming.

Sonny: No, that’s not what I asked. I’m talking about, like, Port Charles. How’s — how’s life?

Phyllis: Hm! I’m amazed how quickly it’s begun to feel like home.

Sonny: You don’t miss your friends in — in Nixon Falls?

Phyllis: I do, but when I go back to visit, they feel more like… the past. Port Charles is my present.

Sonny: Yeah, that’s — that’s, uh… that’s good.

Phyllis: What are you up to?

Sonny: [ Chuckles ] Actually, Phyllis, um… I have a favor to ask you.

Scott: Ava, the judge will have my head if I try and change a court-order placement, you know, over a couple of teenagers fighting.

Ava: Well, this is more than just a fight, Scott. You know that. S-Spencer told Trina that he believes that she is behind that revenge porn video. How can she be expected to work with him?

Scott: Well, unless Trina has some concerns over this thing, I mean… [ Sighs ] S-Spencer has no legal connection to her case.

Ava: [ Scoffs ] Except for the fact that he keeps defending the enemy.

Nina: So, Britt, I gather from aunt Liesl you haven’t been matched with your soul mate yet?

Britt: Mm. Sadly, soul mates are few and far between.

Liesl: Only because you’ve been dragging your feet.

Britt: I filled out the 10-page questionnaire. Now it’s up to “Society Setups.”

Nina: Oh, boy. Okay, ladies. I’m sorry. I can’t stay for dinner. Alright? I promised Phyllis that I would drop by and see her, but… make sure you call me when you meet Mr. Right.

Britt: [ Chuckles ] When hell freezes over. [ Laughs ]

Liesl: This has been more than just a “few moments.” Where has Ava taken mein Scott?

Dante: Oh, this is nice. My day is definitely improving.

Sam: Then I’m glad my plan is working.

Dante: And what plan was that?

Sam: To de-stress you.

Dante: Hmm.

Sam: I saw how tense you were at the station. You want to talk about it?

Dante: [ Sighs ] Yeah, you know, some cases are just tougher than others.

Sam: Trina Robinson? The new evidence that you asked the officer to e-mail you and the ADA? It won’t help?

Dante: I don’t know. Let’s get a table. You wanna get some food?

Sam: Yeah.

Ava: Detective Falconeri.

Dante: Yeah.

Ava: May I have a word, please?

Dante: Sure, Ava.

Sam: Go ahead. I’ll wait.

Dante: Uh, what, uh — what can I do for you, Ava?

Ava: You can stop wasting time and resources on this ridiculous case against Trina.

Spencer: I’m sorry. Can we start over? Seeing you caught me by surprise. I’m reacting inappropriately.

Trina: In more ways than one.

Spencer: Ok I am worried about my friend.

Trina: How do you do that?

Spencer: Do what?

Trina: Ignore the fact that you accused me of betraying my best friends and then humiliating them in public. Do you really think that we can talk as if none of that happened?

Spencer: I suppose not.

Trina: But that’s just you. Closing your eyes to the truth. I mean, how else can you stay with Esme, after everything she’s done?

Esme: Spence has no idea how lucky he is to have you as a father.

Nikolas: I’ve made a lot of mistakes with my son.

Esme: But despite everything, I still see your father-son bond. It might weaken, but it can’t be broken. I often wonder what kind of bond I would have with my birth parents if they had been alive to raise me.

Nikolas: Do you have any memories of them?

Esme: I was an infant when I was adopted. And then I lost my adoptive parents, too. It’s hard growing up without a mother.

Nikolas: Spencer and I would agree with you.

Esme: It’s not as though my adoptive parents left me intentionally. Their deaths were unexpected. Tragic. But I can’t help but feeling like my birth parents just threw me away. I’ll always wonder if I’ll be worthy of their love.

Nikolas: Children don’t have to earn love. And, besides, you don’t know why you were put up for adoption. Your parents could have desperately wanted you but found it impossible to keep you.

Esme: Like your mother couldn’t be a part of your childhood?

Phyllis: I’d do any favor you’d ask if it’s in my power. What do you need?

Sonny: Yeah, I know, I know. Look, look. Y-you’re just bearing the brunt of running this place. You know what I mean?

Phyllis: I don’t mind. You’re a busy man. Yeah, but I hope I — I just — it hasn’t burdened you in any way.

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ] Don’t worry, Sonny. I’m very happy here.

Sonny: Good, good, ’cause it — it would help me a lot if you would take Charlie’s off my hands.

Phyllis: [ Exhales sharply ]

Brando: Sasha. You okay?

Sasha: Why wouldn’t I be?

Brando: [ Stammers ] I know Phyllis’ mention of Liam upset you.

Sasha: Phyllis was just being kind. Besides, I don’t need a reminder of Liam. I think about him all the time.

Brando: Me too.

Sasha: Well, it was nice of Sonny to welcome me to the family. You invited him to the wedding reception, right?

Brando: I thought you were handling that.

Sasha: Brando! We — we discussed this.

Brando: [ Chuckling ] Well, don’t worry. I will make sure he knows. Okay? Maybe later, though. It looks like Sonny’s a little busy right now.

Phyllis: I’d love to own Charlie’s… but I can’t afford to buy it.

Sonny: Trust me, Phyllis — the price would be more than reasonable.

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ]

Sonny: How does $100 sound?

Phyllis: [ Laughs ] For Charlie’s Pub?!

Sonny: Yeah.

Phyllis: Don’t be absurd!

Sonny: I’d give it to you for free, but then the taxes would kill you. This place should be yours. You belong here.

Phyllis: Is this misplaced guilt about the tan-o burning down?

Sonny: That wouldn’t have happened if — if you and Lenny didn’t take me in.

Phyllis: Sonny, please —

Sonny: Listen to me. You gave me a home. Okay? That was the most beautiful thing, you know, anybody could do. And…I don’t — I — you know, how do I repay that? This is a start. Okay? You understand me?

Phyllis: Hm.

Dante: I don’t know if you know this, Ava, but I-I’m not the lead detective on Trina’s case.

Ava: Well, you could still be the voice of reason, right? The commissioner has lost her damn mind if she thinks that Trina would make a sex tape of anybody, let alone her very best friends! Why haven’t the cops looked into Esme prince?

Dante: Okay, Ava, I can’t talk about an ongoing investigation. You know that, right?

Ava: Oh, I am so sick of the party line.

Dante: You’re sick of th — okay, well, how about this one? We’re following the evidence.

Ava: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, why don’t you follow the evidence that leads to Esme’s guilt before Trina ends up in prison?

Dante: Wow. That was…weird.

Sam: Sorry I left you without any backup.

Dante: Ha! You kind of did. No, really. We shouldn’t both have to deal with Ava.

Sam: She was out of line.

Dante: Yeah. She was also right.

Liesl: I hope you billed her for your time.

Scott: Well, now, listen, my pet, as a lawyer, it’s never 9-to-5. I’ve always got to be on call for all my clients, especially the ones that pay so well.

Liesl: I find your work ethic strangely…sexy. [ Chuckles ] Hmm. Hm.

Britt: Gross.

Nikolas: True. I didn’t meet my mother until I was a teenager.

Esme: Spence told me a bit about it. I have to admit, it’s nice to talk to someone who knows what it’s like to have a lonely childhood.

Nikolas: Didn’t you have adopted brothers and sisters?

Esme: I did. But we were never close. After my adopted parents died, the only person who cared about me was my nanny, Maggie.

Nikolas: Well, at least you had someone. Are you still in touch?

Esme: When I was sent to boarding school… Maggie found another job, and we slowly lost touch.

Nikolas: So Spencer never met her.

Esme: I’m afraid not. But they really would have liked one another. And Maggie never knew that I found someone to love me… …however briefly.

Spencer: My situation with Esme is complicated.

Trina: It was complicated when you thought she was pregnant. Yeah. Ava told me that it was a false alarm. Congratulations on dodging another bullet. But you still think I’m guilty.

Spencer: You were drunk at the cabin. And you said that you don’t remember what happened.

Trina: I didn’t walk around with a burner phone in case I got mad at my friends and wanted to tape them having sex and then send out an e-mail while they’re in the middle of class! And in case you forgot, I was with you when they got that video.

Spencer: I know. You were with me at the cemetery.

Trina: At your mother’s grave. When you, once again, decided that the rules didn’t apply to you, when you decided to sneak out of prison. I lied to the Commissioner to cover for you.

Spencer: Wait. Have you told your lawyer that I’m your alibi?

Josslyn: Well, this is useless. I might as well be watching cat videos.

Cameron: Well, maybe we could take a break from the studying.

Josslyn: [ Chuckles ] What’d you have in mind?

[ Kissing sounds ]

Josslyn: Did you hear that?

Cameron: W-what’s wrong?

Josslyn: Someone’s here.

Nina: Hey.

Brando: Hey.

Nina: You guys recovering from your exciting day?

Sasha: Hm. Trying to.

Nina: Yeah, well, it’s no small thing to take a company public.

Brando: Yeah, my wife is an amazing woman.

Nina: Yes, she is. And have I complimented you enough on your speech at the launch party?

Sasha: My speech wasn’t all that great.

Brando: Sasha, come on.

Nina: Yeah. Stop being so modest.

Phyllis: You do realize you’re basically giving me Charlie’s. The place is worth a lot of money. Sonny, I don’t feel right accepting. I’m fine as manager.

Nina: Hey.

Phyllis: Help me out here, Nina. Talk some sense into Sonny. He wants to give me Charlie’s.

Sonny: I-I’m selling it to you for a hundred bucks.

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ] Which is ludicrous!

Nina: Well, actually, I think it’s a wonderful idea. Phyllis, please tell me you’ll accept Sonny’s offer.

Sam: I knew you didn’t think Trina should be charged.

Dante: But it doesn’t matter what I think. I can’t let my feelings get in the way. That’s the job.

Sam: No, your job is to serve justice.

Dante: Mm. Problem with that is… sometimes the law and justice aren’t the same thing. That’s the tough part about being a cop.

Sam: You’re a good cop.

Dante: I promise you I’m gonna do everything in my power to make sure the right person is punished.

Scott: Did Nina leave?

Britt: A while ago.

Scott: Oh, well, I-I guess I only have eyes for you.

Liesl: [ Chuckles ]

Britt: I’m gonna get another drink. Does anyone want a refill?

Scott: Sure.

Liesl: Just wave down our waitress.

Cameron: Hey. Okay, I-I checked underneath every bed, looked in every closet. No one is in this house. I even checked the alarm. It’s still set.

Josslyn: Wow. [ Scoffs ] I must be losing my mind. I mean, hearing things that aren’t even there?

Cameron: Don’t beat yourself up, Joss. That kiss just now… was I moving too fast?

Josslyn: Cam! I wanted you to kiss me. And I want us to be close in that way again. I just — I feel so exposed.

Cameron: I’m sorry.

Josslyn: Don’t. Don’t. Don’t. I do feel safe around you. And I’m not gonna let a horrible video get in between us.

Cameron: It won’t.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Cameron: Why is she calling?

Phyllis; You’re teaming up against me?

Nina: Well, selfishly, I want you to accept Sonny’s offer because it means you’re going to stay in Port Charles.

Phyllis: Sonny doesn’t have to give me this place to get me to stay in town.

Sonny: Y-you’re right. I don’t have to do anything. I just want to give you what’s yours.

Nina: Yeah. You deserve it.

Sonny: Will you do this for me, please?

Sasha: I know we talked about a house, but do we really want the property we’ll have to maintain? I mean, maybe we should think about a condo.

Brando: Hmm. I never imagined that, you know —

Sasha: that it would happen this soon?

Brando: No, that — that money wouldn’t be an issue. W-where did that come from?

Sasha: Well, I-I mean, we — we — we did get married in a hurry.

Brando: Yeah, because when you know something’s right, you don’t waste time thinking about it.

Sasha: Are you sure that’s it? Or did I — did I push you into this? Did we only get married because I wanted to?

Ava: Well, you look thoughtful. Anything you care to share?

Nikolas: I was waiting for you, wondering if you were gonna come home.

Ava: Of course. This is my house. I’m not gonna let Esme chase me out of it. Where is that little snake, anyway? Has she slithered off somewhere other than Wyndemere?

Nikolas: I hate to disappoint you, my love, but Esme is still here. We had an interesting conversation about her childhood.

Ava: Ohh. [ Chuckles ] Well, what heart-rending tale of woe did she spin? Or, the better question, how much of it did you buy?

Nikolas: I pretended to buy all of it.

Ava: So is that your strategy? Be a sympathetic ear so that Esme will open up to you?

Nikolas: The more we know about her, the better.

Ava: Oh, I already know more than I care to know.

Nikolas: Let’s talk about something more pleasant. How about I make you a drink?

Ava: No, thank you. I’m going to bed.

Nikolas: Ooh. Sounds good. I’ll join you.

Spencer: Trina…

Trina: My alibi hasn’t come up yet.

Spencer: Thank you for not ratting me out.

Trina: Don’t relax yet. I’ll tell Scott Baldwin everything if that means I win the case. I’m not going to prison for you.

Spencer: I don’t expect you to.

Trina: So have you changed your mind about me? Can you see that I’m telling the truth?

Spencer: It is hard to believe that you would do that to Joss and Cam.

Trina: So you believe Esme did it?

Spencer: I didn’t say that.

Trina: [ Scoffs ] Then who? You? Because you were the only other person in the cabin.

Spencer: It wasn’t me.

Trina: Then what’s your theory? Hmm? Some random hiker broke in? Without me, Joss, or Cam hearing anything? Without any sign of a break-in?! Or maybe it was a sasquatch. Come on. How far are you gonna go to defend Esme?

Spencer: I’m not defending, Esme! I’m doing this for you!

Spencer: I know you’re innocent. Esme set you up!

Trina: Then why are you still with her?

Spencer: I’m not! I’m only pretending to stand by Esme until she slips up, until I have evidence that she is the one who filmed and posted that video of Joss and Cam, that she is the one who is guilty and not you!

Trina: Saying you believe Esme… is just a pretense to trap her?

Spencer: That’s why I suggested that she move into Wyndemere. She thinks it’s so that she’ll stay safe from my Uncle Sonny, but, really, it’s so that I can watch her and try to get evidence that she is the one who was behind the video.

Trina: You’re doing this to help me. Why?

Spencer: Because I’m falling in love with you.

Trina: Well, Spencer? Esme got your tongue? Are you gonna keep denying what’s right in front of your face?

Cameron: Okay, well, um, thank you for calling and telling me yourself.

Josslyn: Hey. What did the director of Lila’s Kids want?

Cameron: Um… I can’t work at the day camp this summer.

Josslyn: What? But you were gonna be head counselor. Cam, you were so excited.

Cameron: Yeah, well, I can’t be in charge of the kids with the tape of us out there.

Josslyn: [ Scoffs ] That is so not fair. Okay? We did nothing wrong. It is not our fault that Esme recorded us and posted something.

Cameron: Still… the damage is done.

Josslyn: We were campers at Lila’s Kids. This is not fair.

Cameron: No, it’s not. But Ms. Aubrey’s not to blame. No one is. Esme is. She’s getting everything she wanted.

Esme: “Dear Esme, I was surprised to get your letter saying you’re going to the United States with Spencer. I hope he brings you all the happiness you deserve. But I have to ask if being in New York is wise. No good can come from any contact with your father. Please be careful. Love, Maggie.”

Ava: Well, I hope you had the housekeeper make up a guest bedroom for you. Because I have no intention of moving out of the master suite and I certainly have no intention of sharing a room with you.

Nikolas: We say a lot of things when we’re angry.

Ava: Did you think I didn’t mean it?

Nikolas: I think we are both passionate, volatile people. I think we both live in the moment and we say what’s on our minds. Which is why we’re so good together.

Ava: This isn’t foreplay, Nikolas. As long as Esme remains in this house… you’re gonna need a lot of blankets ’cause your bed is gonna be very cold.

Nikolas: Even after vow renewal ceremony?

Ava: Oh. There isn’t gonna be one.

Britt: [ Exhales deeply ]

Britt: Duckpin bowling?

[ Scoffs ] It’s competitive?

Is this a man or a 12-year-old? [ Sighs ] Next!

Hmm. Not bad.

I like that, too.

[ Laughs ]

Same sense of humor.

Could it be?

[ Cellphone beeps ]

Phyllis: You’re acting like I’m doing you a favor.

Sonny: You are!

Phyllis: Did you know about this?

Nina: Well, Sonny and I, we just want you to be happy, Phyllis, because when you’re happy, we’re happy.

Phyllis: [ Breathes deeply ] Thank you for your very generous offer. I accept.

Sonny: Ahh! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Nina: This is such good news.

Phyllis: Well, but before we finalize the paperwork… I need to drop off the deposit in the night box.

Sonny: Uh, doesn’t Rafi usually walk you to the bank?

Phyllis: He had to leave earlier today. Family emergency.

Sonny: Oh, no, no, no. You’re not walking alone with the — hey, Frank. Do me a favor. Walk, uh, Mrs. Caulfield to the bank, make sure nothing happens to her.

Frank: Copy that, sir.

Sonny: So, Baldwin came to see me at Pezzulo’s. He’s — he’s gonna subpoena me to be a character witness for you in the visitation hearing.

Nina: No, there’s not gonna be a subpoena. I’m gonna talk to Scott. If there’s a subpoena, then I’m gonna fire him.

Scott: Nina, we’ll see how it goes. Okay?

Nina: Alright.

Sonny: You want a drink? On the house. Since you helped me convince Phyllis to take over the pub.

Nina: No. I’m — I’m good. Thank you. And it was really lovely of you to do that.

Brando: I married you because I love you.

Sasha: And not just to make me happy?

Brando: There’s no “just” about making you happy. Your happiness is a priority of mine for the rest of our lives, so you better get used to it. Look. I would do anything for you, but I married you for us.

Liesl: Detective Falconeri, over here.

Dante: Uh, yeah. Obrecht, what is it?

Liesl: I demand you arrest Sonny corinthos this instant.

Dante: Why? What for?

Liesl: For threatening my beloved Scott.

Dante: [ Chuckles ] Well, Scott can go down to the station and file an official complaint all by himself, yeah?

Scott: Well, t-there’s no need to make it official. I’m just telling you off the record, since Carly left Sonny, you just need to corral your father.

Dante: Hm.

Sam: Good thing I know you, Dante.

Cameron: Did you tell your mom you’d be home by now?

Josslyn: I’ll text her, tell her not to worry.

Cameron: I think you should go, Joss. I’m not the best company right now.

Josslyn: You don’t have to entertain me. I just want to be with you.

Cameron: Well, I-I want to be with you, too, but, you know, I have that history test tomorrow and…

Josslyn: And you need your beauty sleep.

Cameron: Look, I-I just need a Noodle Buddha to, uh, sustain me for my all-nighter, but… Joss, I…promise I’ll make it up to you.

Josslyn: I hate everything that’s happened. And we need to prove that Esme’s responsible.

Cameron: We will.

Spencer: I wish that this wasn’t happening to you, but you can’t blame Esme for everything that goes wrong in your life.

Trina: Get out. Get the hell out!

Nikolas: You want to postpone our vow renewal? Can’t we work through this?

Ava: This is more than just a lovers’ spat. The way I feel right now, any vow you made to me… would be meaningless.

Dante: What are you doing?

Liesl: I’m sorry Scott had to leave. His law practice keeps him so busy.

Britt: Hmm. I thought maybe he was running away from Dante.

Liesl: Mein Scott runs from nothing.

Britt: Hm. Of course not. My mistake.

Liesl: I’m sorry Scott and I were making you feel left out earlier.

Britt: Don’t lose sleep over it, mother. I’m just happy you found love.

Liesl: It’s a wonderful feeling, one I want you to experience, as well. I paid a fortune for that matchmaker. What’s taking them so long to find you the intelligent and handsome man you deserve?

Britt: Well, actually, I received some possible matches earlier.

Liesl: [ Gasps ] You did? And?!

Britt: I’m still going through their profiles.

Liesl: Well, perhaps I should, uh, take a look for you. A second set of eyes is always useful.

Britt: Knock yourself out, Mutter.

Brando: Thank Phyllis for the drinks.

Sonny: Yeah, I will. And have a good one.

Sasha: Thanks.

Sonny: Yeah.

Brando: Bye.

Nina: Bye. Is it okay if I just hang around until Phyllis gets back? Because we didn’t really get a chance to connect and catch up.

Sonny: Y-yeah, I’m gonna stay here anyway and wait for Frank and Phyllis to get back.

Nina: Okay. Sounds like a plan. I’ll go lock up.

[ Both laugh ]

Masked Man: Don’t do anything stupid, and you might live through this!

On the next “General Hospital” —

Chase (to Brook Lynn): I feel terrible that I let you down.

Sasha (to Brando): Promise not to make it a habit.

Maxie: Can you accept that?

Drew: I’m gonna take advantage of that closeness.

Dante (to Sam): I need to know I can trust you for this to work.

Carly: I made things worse, didn’t I?

Sonny: You turn around and go, and this will all be over.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Sonny: [Chuckles] Okay. Look, I’m, uh– I’m sorry I dragged you over here, but it was– it was too big of a deal to get into over the phone.

Chad: Don’t worry about iT. What’s going on?

Sonny: I, uh– I need your help.

Chad: Please don’t ask me to get back in bed with leo.

Sonny: [Sighs]

Leo: Yes, he proposed. No, there’s nothing that bitch can do about it. Let me call you back. Craig just got here.

[Phone beeps] Hey, babE. I didn’t see you– I didn’t see you come in.

Craig: Yeah. Who were you speaking with?

Leo: Uh, just an old friend. I was sharing the good news.

Craig: Mm-hmm.

Leo: So how’d it go with the lawyer?

Craig: Just got off the video call.

Leo: And?

Craig: And…all looks good.

Leo: So this means…

Craig: Nancy and i will be signing the divorce papers tonight.

Leo: [Sighs]

Chloe: MoM.

Nancy: I didn’t expect to see you two here tonight. Um, I’m waiting for justin and your father to… sign the divorce paperS.

Chloe: Oh, thank goodness. We’re not too late.

Nancy: Too late for what?

Chloe: Too late to stop it. Mom, you cannot sign those divorce papers.

Xander: Bloody hell. All these monkey suits are so expensive.

[Knock at door]

[Exhales heavily]

[Grunts] One second.

[Grunting] Maggie.

Maggie: UM…

Xander: Is everything okay?

Maggie: Are you alone?

Xander: Yes. Gwen had somewhere important she needed to be.

Abigail: Gwen.

Gwen: Hello, abigail.

Abigail: What do you want?

Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “days of our lives.”

[Soft orchestration]

Maggie: I, um–I just wanted to see how you were holding up. I know how difficult this whole ordeal with sarah has been on you.

[Sighs]

Xander: Never mind me. How are you doing?

Maggie: Oh, great.

[Chuckles weakly] My daughter’s a strong, independent woman, and seeing her like this, it just–

[Sighs] It breaks my heart.

Xander: I’m so sorry, maggiE.

Maggie: [Sighs]

Xander: For both of you.

Maggie: Thank you, darling. But I know this has to hurt you too. I know you’ve been in love with sarah for a long time.

Xander: Well, I think part of me always will be. Even if now, she believes she’s a little girl who dreams of one day marrying eric brady.

Maggie: [Chuckling] Oh. Oh, yes. Oh, she had the biggest crush on him when they were kids.

Xander: [Sighs] Yeah.

Maggie: But xander, you must know that the only man in sarah’s life that she has ever truly loved is you.

Xander: Maggie, I, um– I need to tell you something.

Maggie: What is it?

Xander: Gwen and I… we’re getting married next week.

Gwen: I hope I’m not interrupting your evening.

Abigail: You’re not. Chad is out, and I just put the kids to bed.

[Clears throat]

Gwen: The kids. Oh. Oh, how are those adorable little munchkins? I really miss them.

Abigail: Gwen, what is this about? You obviously did not come here to ask me about my kids, and, quite frankly, I don’t like you talking about them.

Gwen: [Clears throat] I understand. But they are my niece and nephew, aren’t they? And you are my sisteR.

Abigail: Half-sister. Where is this going?

Gwen: Right, I fully admit that when I first came to salem, I waS…deceptive and vengeful. And I’ve since realized what a huge mistake that was.

[Sighs] Honestly, all I want is just for us to be closer. All of us. As a family. Nothing is more important to me.

Abigail: Okay, just spit it out already.

Gwen: FinE. I want you to be my matron of honor.

Sonny: I wish I could have seen your face when leo offer–

[Snickers] When leo offered you up as a gift to chloe’s dad.

[Laughs]

Chad: Horrified pretty much covers it, thank you.

Sonny: [Sighs] Oh, oh. So what was craig’s reaction when he saw you and leo naked in bed, game for a threesome? Leo was game. I was noT. And to be honest,

[Laughs]

Chad: Horrified pretty much covers it, thank you.

Sonny: [Sighs] Oh, oh. So what was craig’s reaction when he saw you and leo naked in bed, game for a threesome?

Chad: No, no, no, no, no. See, let me be very clear. Leo was game. I was noT. And to be honest, craig didn’t seem all that enthusiastic either.

Sonny: Oh, oh! Well, maybe he’ll come around to it by christmastime. I mean, leo could put you, like, right under the tree.

Chad: Oh, my god, you’re hilarious.

Sonny: You would also make an incredible stocking stuffer.

Chad: Please don’t touch me. I’m glad you find this amusing. I’ll be sending you my therapy bill. What do you want, sonny? What do you want? Why’d you call me here?

Sonny: Look, okay, don’t worry, okay? This is not another covert op to bust leo. I need your help on something totally different.

Chad: What?

Sonny: [Exhales] Whether I should let my uncle vic uproot my entire life.

Chad: Don’t tell me.

Sonny: Yeah. He wants me to step back in as ceo of titan.

Chad: What about your startup? You guys just went public, like, six months ago.

Sonny: I know–he said that my brothers could handle it.

Chad: Yeah, but the company means everything to you guys. You started it in honor of your mother. What about will’s job or ari’s school?

Sonny: I told him. I told him I have an entire life back in phoeniX.

Chad: Let me guesS. Vic doesn’t give a damn.

Sonny: No. You know how he gets when he wants something.

Chad: Do I need to remind you what happened last time you were ceo of titan?

Sonny: How could I forget? The infamous leo stark almost destroyed my entire family.

Leo: You’re signing the papers tonight? Babe, that’s amazing!

[Chuckles] Well, I hope nancy hasn’t taken you to the cleaners.

Craig: [Sighs] Nancy has her own money. She’s not trying to take any of mine. It’s a very equitable– equitable settlement.

Leo: This is so great! So the wedding is full steam ahead.

Craig: Mm-hmm. I’m glad you’re happY.

Leo: Aren’t you?

Craig: Well… yeah, I am. I just– I don’t think you need to call nancy names.

Leo: Oh, you heard that.

Craig: Mm-hmm. “There’s nothing that bitch can do about it”?

Leo: Actually, I wasn’t talking about nancy. Although this is going to offend you too, but there’s only so much I can take without being hurt and angry and…

Craig: Who were you talking about?

Leo: Your daughter. The one who hates me with every cell of her being.

Nancy: Chloe, i more than anyone know how difficult this is to face reality, but we have to. Your father is gay and our marriage is over.

Chloe: I know that, mom. And I’ve accepted reality, and I accept dad for who he is and that he needs to move on, but who he’s moving on with, leo stark, is gonna ruin his life.

Nancy: And I should care about that because?

Chloe: Because dad’s gonna get hurt, and I’m not just talking emotionally.

Brady: Nancy, he could lose everything. He could end up being jobless and homeless. I mean, if leo is desperate enough, he could lose his life.

Chloe: Mom, we don’t mean to scare you, and I know you don’t want to get involved, but dad, he really does need your helP.

Nancy: What do you want me to do?

Brady: Just stall the divorce. Just for a little while.

Chloe: Just long enough for us to come up with some sort of way that…

[Sighs] Dad’s not gonna make the biggest mistake of his life.

Maggie: Are you sure that marrying gwen is what you really want?

Xander: I do love her, maggie.

Maggie: As much as you love sarah? Oh. Oh. I’m sorrY. I shouldn’t have asked that.

Xander: Maggie, what– what gwen and I share is– is different from what i had with sarah. ObviouslY. I mean, come on, maggiE. Your daughter was so far out of my league. I mean, she was this goddess, and I was just some pitiful rogue. But a determined one. I was gonna find a way to prove my love to her, and that i was worthy of her love.

Maggie: And you did, xander.

Xander: Sarah inspired me to try and be a– be a better man, you know? She gave me hope that i could become what– what I’d never imagined. A husband, a father, a friend. But when sarah left, I lost that hope and became the rogue again. Marauding about, trying to cause as much damage as I could. But then gwen came along.

[Sighs] And she’s someone who’s spent her whole life feeling unwanted. And she appears heartless and cruel, but really she just– just desperately wants to be accepted, to belong, to be valued. And god, did I recognize that in heR. And I related to it, and it made me care. So much so that– well, I came to love her deeply.

Maggie: [Sniffles] Despite all the damage that she’s caused?

Xander: I don’t condone what gwen did, maggie, but I do understand it. It’s how we connected. We were there for each other during the darkest times of our lives. She’d just lost her baby, and I’d just lost sarah to rex.

Maggie: But you didn’t lose sarah. That was a terrible lie.

Gwen: Yeah, it’s true. Xander and I, we’re getting married in a week. God, you look shocked.

Abigail: I am. I am.

Gwen: Why? You knew that xander and I were engageD.

Abigail: Well, I just figured with sarah being back in town…

Gwen: That he would dump me and go back to her.

Abigail: Pretty mucH.

Gwen: Well, honestly, I expected the same thing. And it might have happened, if there was a chance that sarah could go back to her right mind. I mean, what’s the poor bloke to do? I mean, he can’t put his whole life on hold.

Abigail: I understand xander wanting to move on with his lifE. What I’m having a really difficult time comprehending is why you want me, of all people, to stand up for you at your wedding.

Chad: Look, selfishly, I would love to have my two best friends back in town, but do you really want to be mixed up at titan again?

Sonny: I don’t know. I mean, do i?

Chad: Pros and cons. Go.

Sonny: Okay. Pro, I would be helping out my uncle vic.

Chad: Con, you’d have to deal with your uncle vic 24/7.

Sonny: Pro, ari would be closer to her mother.

Chad: Con, her mother’s the ceo of dimera. You’d be going up against her.

Sonny: Yeah, but at least I wouldn’t be going up against you.

Chad: Yeah, you would. Make no mistake, I plan on getting my job back.

Sonny: So you and mE… full-on corporate warfare?

Chad: You know it. Don’t think I’m gonna go easy on you because you’re my best friend.

Sonny: Oh, come on. If anyone’s gonna be begging for mercy, it’s gonna be you.

Chad: Sounds like a challenge. So are you gonna take your uncle vic up on the offer?

Xander: If I’d known the truth, that sarah hadn’t left me, that she’d been kidnapped and taken to some deserted island, you know i would have moved heaven and earth to bring her home.

Maggie: Of course. But we didn’t know. None of us knew.

Xander: Well, she’s safe now, thank god.

Maggie: Yeah. I’m grateful for thaT. But if you and abigail hadn’t been so persistent…

[Sighs] My daughter might have been lost to us foreveR. The truth is, she still might be.

Xander: MaggiE… I feel like I’m abandoning you and sarah when you need me the mosT.

Maggie: No. No, no, no, no. No. Don’t do that to yourself. You need to try to find happiness with gweN. Sarah would have wanted that.

Xander: Well, I’m here if you need anything.

Maggie: I appreciate that. But I mean what I say when I don’t want you to have any regrets. If anyone should feel guilty about abandoning sarah, it’s mE.

Gwen: Given our history, I understand why you would be skeptical of my request.

Abigail: Skeptical is a little bit of an understatement. I– as I recall, the last time we spoke, I accused you of being ava vitali’s accomplice, and I told you that I intend to prove that you are the person who hit me from behind in the airfield.

Gwen: Once again, i had nothing to do with your kidnapping.

Abigail: Okay. Right. Well, the problem with that is, I will never again believe another word that comes out of your moutH. So if this is just your way of trying to get me to drop it–

Gwen: No, it’s not.

Abigail: Even if that’s true, what happened to you hating my guts?

Gwen: I absolutely do not.

Abigail: Oh, my god. It wasn’t that long ago that you accused me of only wanting to find sarah to cause problems between you and xandeR. So what, did you just stop believing that all of a sudden? That’s what I thought. Okay. All right. So if you still think that I am actively rooting for your fiancé to throw you over for my cousin, why in god’s name are you asking me to stand up at your wedding?

Gwen: Because of our father.

Abigail: What does our dad have to do with this?

Gwen: Jack has been trying to broker peace between us from the moment that he learned that I’m his daughter. And xander has now asked him to be his best man, and I thought, well, wouldn’t that be wonderful if– if jack could come to my wedding and he could see his two daughters acting like sisters?

Abigail: Acting, like pretending?

Gwen: No. Look, abigail, I know that you and I have gotten off to a very, very rocky start. And I don’t see this wedding as being some sort of magical reconciliation, but… I do see it as an opportunity for us to just move closer. And… if we keep going with that, just slowly, we might even have a chance of being real sisters, in a real family, which, despite my horrendous way of going about it, is truly the only thing that I have ever wanted. So will you please just be my matron of honor? If you won’t do it for me, just do it for our father.

Abigail: [Sighs] What the hell.

Gwen: Really?

Abigail: Sure.

Gwen: Really?

Abigail: Sure. What’s the worst that could happen, huh?

Chad: You know what? Maybe with the two of us in charge, we could figure out a way for dimera and titan to peacefully coexist.

Sonny: [Scoffs] YeaH. Yeah, don’t let my uncle hear you say that. He doesn’t want peace. He wants to bring your family to its knees.Il, ouees erth uofngju vilryé o a gbi wliof

don’t want you to have any regrets. If anyone should feel guilty about abandoning sarah, it’s me.

Gwen: Given our history, I understand why you would be skeptical of my requesT.

Gwen: Once again, I had nothing to do with your kidnapping.

Abigail: Okay. Right. Well, the problem with that is, I will never again believe another word that comes out of your mouth. So if this is just your way of trying to get me to drop it–

Gwen: No, it’s not.

Abigail: Even if that’s true, what happened to you hating my guts?

Gwen: I absolutely do not.

Abigail: Oh, my god. It wasn’t that long ago that you accused me of only wanting to find sarah to cause problems between you and xander. So what, did you just stop believing that all of a sudden? That’s what I thought. Okay. All righT. So if you still think that I am actively rooting for your fiancé to throw you over for my cousin, why in god’s name are you asking me to stand up at your wedding?

Gwen: Because of our father.

Abigail: What does our dad have to do with this?

Abigail: Acting, like pretending?

Gwen: NO. Look, abigail, i know that you and I have gotten off to a very, very rocky starT. And I don’t see this wedding as being some sort of magical reconciliation, but… I do see it as an opportunity for us to just move closer. AnD… if we keep going with that, just slowly, we might even have a chance of being real sisters, in a real family, which, despite my horrendous way of going about it, is truly the only thing that I have ever wanted. So will you please just be my matron of honor? If you won’t do it for me, just do it for our fatheR.

Abigail: [Sighs] What the hell.

Gwen: Really?

Abigail: Sure.

Gwen: Really?

Abigail: Sure. What’s the worst that could happen, huh?

Chad: You know what? Maybe with the two of us in charge, we could figure out a way for dimera and titan to peacefully coexisT.

Sonny: [Scoffs] Yeah. Yeah, don’t let my uncle hear you say that. He doesn’t want peace. He wants to bring your family to its knees.

Chad: Yeah, well, my father would be rolling over in his grave right now if he heard me talking about anything other than grinding titan into dust.

Sonny: [Chuckles]

Chad: So you any closer to making your decision?

Sonny: Not even a little bit.

Chad: Great. Glad I could helP.

Sonny: Oh, come on, look– shut up, okay? It always helps talking to you. I just– I don’t know. I think I need to mull it over with will, and then I’ll have some clarity, one way or the other.

Chad: Okay. Let me know how it all shakes out.

Sonny: [Laughs] Yeah, I will.

Chad: Um… So then does this mean you’re giving up on trying to get chloe’s dad to see the light?

Sonny: Uh, well, I lost my best undercover man, but I’m still holding out hope that, you know, craig will finally come to his senses.

Leo: I’m sorry. I know i shouldn’t be trash-talking chloE.

Craig: You shouldn’t be.

Leo: I know, I just– look, I am so angry at the lengths she and her friends went to to try and break us up.

Craig: Leo, i’m angry about it too. But she’s my daughter, and I love her, and that’s never gonna change. So you just better find a way to get along with her.

Leo: Hey, I will do my part if she does hers.

Craig: Okay, okay, look. Chloe is a very caring and protective and supportive persoN. But she just found out her dad is gay, he’s divorcing her mom, and he’s getting married to a man. I’d be thrown by that. Don’t you think she would be too?

Leo: Okay. I think I can be more empathetic. And who knows, maybe once things calm down, chloe will be more accepting of us after you and nancy sign those papers.

Craig: [Chuckles]

Leo: And then we can have our wedding. Oh, babe, I cannot wait!

Craig: Can’t wait either, baby.

[Both grunt]

Craig: All right, I gotta go.

Leo: Okay.

Craig: I love you.

Leo: I love you. Bye. And it will not be long until I am married to medicine.

Nancy: Let me get this straighT. You two want me to refuse to sign the divorce papers until you dig up enough dirt on leo stark to convince your father to dump him?

Brady: Yeah. Yeah, exactly.

Chloe: Mom, there’s gotta be something that we don’t know about him.

Brady: Something that’s gonna open up craig’s eyes to what’s really going on here.

Nancy: Wait, craig already knows about the blackmail, the attempted jewelry heist, the prostitution. If that isn’t enough to open up craig’s eyes and dump the little creep, then nothing is.

Chloe: But mom, we’ve gotta–

Nancy: But nothinG. Your father made his bed with leo stark, and now he can lie in it.

Chloe: Uh, I’m sorry, mom. I didn’t mean to put you on the spot like thiS.

Nancy: It’s okay, sweetheart. It just shows how much you love your father. But you have to understand, I promised craig an easy divorce if he would keep marlena on at the hospital. If I refuse to sign these divorce papers now, then he will surely fire her.

Justin: Nancy. Chloe, brady. I didn’t know you’d be joining us.

Brady: No, no, we’re just– we’re just leaving.

Chloe: Yeah. Nice to see yoU. Good luck, mom. I love you.

Nancy: Oh, I’ll talk to you later.

Justin: So how are you doing?

Nancy: I’ll be better when we get this over with.

Justin: Okay, well, I have all the papers right here. All we’ll need is your signatures, and we’ll be–

Craig: Nancy, i’m– I’m sorry I’m late. Hi, justin.

Justin: Craig.

Craig: I just saw chloe and brady outside.

Nancy: They came by for moral support.

Craig: That was wonderful of them.

Justin: Okay. Now that we’re all here, we should get started.

Maggie: It’s all my fault. What was I thinking, trusting my daughter’s mental health to stefano dimera’s mad scientist?

Xander: But you didn’t, maggie. You wanted that drug to go through proper safety trials before sarah tried iT.

Maggie: [Chuckles] Ah, and then anna dimera– she took matters into her own hands, literally. Damn her.

Xander: I hope you press charges against that witch.

Maggie: Oh, I plan to. But right now, my focus has to be on sarah. Getting her into the best long-term care facility possible.

Xander: Has it really come to that?

Maggie: I’m afraid it has. I’m taking her to a clinic in florida where abigail was taken after she…

Xander: After gwen drugged her.

Maggie: Mm. Yeah.

Gwen: I can’t thank you enough. Abigail, really, thank you. Thank yoU.

[Exhales]

Chad: What the hell is this?

Gwen: Um… Right, well, um, I will let you fill in your husband on the very good newS. Um, ’cause I have a million things to do, so i will talk to you later.

Chad: You know that’s gwen, right?

Abigail: I do, yeah.

Chad: And yet– yet you were hugging her.

Abigail: Well, she hugged me.

Chad: Why?

Abigail: Because I just agreed to be her matron of honor at her wedding.

Chad: I thought xander was gonna wait to see if sarah got better.

Abigail: He was. But apparently there’s no hope of that happeninG. So it looks like my cousin might be lost to us forever.

Xander: Abigail did really well at that facility. She made a complete recovery.

Maggie: Sarah’s prognosis, it isn’t as hopeful. But I have to do whatever I can. I don’t know, maybe this place can find a way to help her somehow.

Xander: God, I hope so. Well, how long will you be in florida?

Maggie: Until sarah’s settled in.

Xander: Well, good luck, maggiE. And please tell me how it’s all going, yeah?

Maggie: I will. And xander, I’m sorry that you won’t be my son-in-laW. I still care about you. I really do hope that gwen makes you happY.

Xander: Thank you so much.

[Sniffles] And please… take good care of yourself.

Maggie: I will.

Leo: No, I’m sorry I had to jump off so quickly beforE. [Chuckles] No. He just left to go and sign the divorce papers. Nothing and no one can stop this wedding now. [Troubled music]

Gwen: I saw maggie on my way in. Did– did something happen to sarah?

Xander: Maggie’s taking her to florida, where she can get long-term care.

Gwen: [Sighs] I’m so sorry, xander.

Xander: It’s just tragic, what’s been done to her.

Gwen: I know. I know it is. It’s really, really tragic. But with help and the proper support, she might be able to lead a somewhat normal life.

Xander: How’d it go with abigail?

Gwen: She said she’d do it.

Xander: Really?

Gwen: YeaH. [Laughs] My little sister’s gonna be my matron of honor.

Xander: Gwen, I’m so happy for yoU. Wow, i mean, can you believe all the progress you’ve made? Not just with abigail, but in every aspect of your life. I hope you are as proud as i am of how far you’ve come.

Chad: So you think gwen is a criminal, and gwen thinks you’re trying to sabotage her life, yet she asked you to stand for her at her wedding, and you actually said yes?

Abigail: Yeah. She went on and on about the importance of family and how much it would mean to my dad, and i guess it got to me.

Chad: Okay, so she guilted you into it?

Abigail: You could put it that way.

Chad: The wedding’s not till next week. You can call her and tell her you changed your mind.

Abigail: I don’t know.

Chad: Nobody’s gonna blame you after what she put you througH. Here, call gwen, and you can tell her where she can stuff her wedding.

Leo: Hey, jackie, my soon-to-be stepdaughter and her boyfriend just showed up. Gotta go. Bye, girl.

[Phone beeps]

Chloe: Oh, hi. Already calling me your stepdaughter.

Leo: I said soon-to-be, as i recall.

Chloe: It’s a little bit presumptuous, don’t you think?

Leo: More like inevitable, since your parents are signing their divorce papers as we speaK.

Chloe: Okay.

Leo: Look, chloe, honey, I know we got off on the wrong foot.

Chloe: That’s an understatement, and, uh, please don’t call me “honey.”

Leo: My point is, I understand that we’re not gonna have the kind of relationship where we’re jetting off for spa weekends, but I’m willing to try and get along. For your dad’s sakE. That is, if you arE. What do you say? How about I buy us all a drink? You know, this place has an actually pretty decent cosmo.

Brady: I have to get to granddad’s because maggie is taking sarah to a clinic in florida, so I want to say goodbye before they leave.

Leo: Oh, come on, come on. One quick drink. What’s your poison? I know, I know. Sparkling cider for you, mr. 12 steps. Chloe?

Chloe: I guess I’ll have a cosmo.

Leo: Awesome!

Chloe: [Clears throat] Yeah, totally.

Justin: Craig, I trust your attorney had a chance to review the document?

Craig: Yeah, uh, she diD. She gave me the green light and said it was all pretty standard.

Nancy: “Pretty standard”? What a lovely way to sum up the end of a relationship that has lasted the better part of our lives.

Craig: I’m sorry, nancy. I–it just– I didn’t mean it to come out that way.

Nancy: You know what? Let’s just get this over with, shall we? Justin, do you have a pen?

Justin: Not page…

Nancy: Your turn.

Leo: One more for the road?

Brady: Tempting, but no. I gotta get going, so…

Leo: Ah, ah, ah, ah. Drinks are on me, remember?

Chloe: Dr. Craig wesley?

Leo: He said I could use it. We’re gonna be married soon, and what’s mine will be his, and what’s his will be mine.

Chad: Seriously, I want you to call gwen, and I want you to tell her you changed your mind.

Abigail: I already agreed.

Chad: Because she pressured you into iT.

Abigail: True, but aside from that, I truly believe that she loves xander, and as much as it breaks my heart that sarah is so badly damaged, I have to at least try to respect that gwen and xander make each other happy, even though it’s so strange that they’re together.

Chad: Speaking of strange… I went to statesville to see rolf before my meeting with sonny.

Abigail: How did that go?

Chad: He has no idea what went wrong. He said that the antidote he made for sarah should’ve workeD.

Abigail: Well, it certainly seemed to work out for gwen, didn’t it?

Gwen: Oh, my god, I can’t believe we’re actually getting married. We’re getting married next week.

Xander: My wife, mrs. Gwendolyn cook.

Gwen: Oh, my god. I love the sound of that so much. You know what? I wanna get some stationery, actually, with my new initials on it. And I want a tote bag and one of those really plush bathrobes. I’ve never had one before.

Xander: Hmm. You know, as much as i appreciate your passion for monogrammed goods, they are not in the budgeT.

Gwen: Oh, yeaH. Right, the budgeT. Did you have any luck getting a tuxedo in our budget?

Xander: I can’t find a bow tie in our budget.

Gwen: Well, i’ll just have to help you when I get back, then.

Xander: Ah-da-da. You just got home. Where you running off to now?

Gwen: I just, um– I wanna run off to sweet bits before they close. We need to get them working on a wedding cake immediately.

Xander: Can’t that wait till the morning?

Gwen: No. It cannot wait till the morning, my handsome darlinG. We only have a few days to pull this all togetheR. And I want everything to be just perfect for our big day. Love you.

Xander: Love you.

Gwen: I really do. I’ll be back.

Abigail: So if the drug had worked properly, sarah would’ve been back to her old self, probably would’ve gotten back together with xander, and gwen would’ve been left out in the cold.

Chad: Your sister lucked ouT.

Abigail: I guess. Maggie called earlier. She’s taking sarah to florida.

Chad: The clinic?

Abigail: I just hope they can do for my cousin what they did for me.

Chad: I’ll, uh–I’ll call maggie and let her know that if she needs any help navigating the place, I’m happy to help.

Abigail: I’m sure she’d appreciate that.

Chad: Well, i’m gonna go upstairs, and I’m gonna play with the kids and try to run them ragged before bed.

Abigail: Oh, well, uh-uh. Too late. Those goofballs are already sound asleep.

Chad: Well… then maybe mom and dad can have a… have a little playdate of their own.

Abigail: What did you have in mind?

Chad: How about…some… naked hide-and-go-seek?

Abigail: HmM. That sounds kind of interesting.

Chad: Yeah?

Abigail: Mm-hmm.

Chad: OH. Okay.

Abigail: Mm-hmm.

[Seductive music]

Tag. You’re it.

Chad: Okay, i’m counting to ten, and then I’m gonna come find you! OnE… two… three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten!

Justin: Thank you.

Craig: I guess that’s it.

Nancy: I guess so.

Justin: I will file these in the morning and get certified copies to both of you as soon as possible. Let me know if there’s anything else, nancy.

Nancy: Thank you, justin, for everything.

Justin: Of course.

Nancy: [Sighs] Well, I guess I should be going toO. Goodbye, craig, and good luck, because if everything I’ve heard about leo stark is true, you’re gonna need it.

Craig: Nancy, wait.

Nancy: Yes?

Craig: Would you consider staying and having one last drink with me, for old times’ sake?

Sonny: Give ari a kiss good night for me, please. All right, I love you too. Bye. Hey, cuz. Are you here to see uncle vic?

Brady: Here to see maggie, actually.

Sonny: Oh, uh, I think she’s upstairs, packing for her and sarah.

Brady: Yeah. I hate that they have to leave town under these circumstances.

Sonny: Yeah. Yeah, me too. You know, but hopefully, this clinic can actually get them some helP.

Brady: Hoping.

Sonny: Speaking of people who need help, is there any more news on the leo stark front?

Brady: Yeah. Craig and nancy are signing their divorce papers tonight, and craig is going to marry leo as soon as possible.

Sonny: Oh, my god. That’s awful. I mean, how can he be so damn clueless?

Brady: I don’t know, sonny. It boggles my mind. Leo–I mean, I say his name, it makes my skin crawl. Chloe and I heard him gloating on the phone earlier about his victory to somebody named jackie.

Sonny: Uh, wait, jackie cox?

Brady: I don’t know. I didn’t hear the last name.

Sonny: Yeah. Yeah, no, I bet that’s who it was. I met her once back in phoenix during the whole “great peacock caper.” She was leo’s partner in crime.

Brady: Is that so?

Leo: Oh!

Gwen: Oh, god!

Leo: Gwen rizczech?

Gwen: [Gasps] Matty cooper?

Both: What are you doing in salem?

Taylor: Don’t let go of me, please! Pull me up! God!

[ Grunting ]

[ Sobbing ] Thank you! You saved my life! You saved my life! Charmin ultra soft has so much cushiony softness, together in front of ridge. But you’re right, thomas. It’s, uh– it’s really hard to see her like that. Fighting for her life.

Nurse: Pulse is 60, bp 120/80, oxygen 98.

Ridge: Tell me you got something. Anything.

Bridget: I wish I could. Just try talking to her, ridge try reaching her. We really need her to wake up.

[ Machines beeping ]

[ Ridge sighing ]

Ridge: Well, you heard the doctor. It’s time to wake up. Time to open your eyes and come back to us.

Taylor: Thank you. Thank you so much.

Sheila: No, don’t– don’t thank me. I’m, uh, I’m the reason that– oh, god. I’m so sorry. Taylor, I am so sorry.

Taylor: No, don’t be sorry. I understand, sheila, you’re in so much pain.

Sheila: Yeah, but if you’d– had– if you had died too, I–

Taylor: But I didn’T. I didn’t because you saved my life.

Sheila: You saved mine.

Taylor: We saved each other’s lives. In a million years, I would have never said– said that.

[ Chuckling ] You deserve a happy life, sheila. You really do.

Sheila: Do I?

Taylor: Yeah, yeah, you do. Hayes, family. And I’m here for you.

Sheila: You?

Taylor: Yeah. You saved my life, sheila. That is not something that old sheila would have done. Not at all. No, if that doesn’t give you a place in our family, I don’t know what does. And that stupid thing you were about to do, taking your own life? Sheila– what happened to finn and steffy is– is– not your fault. Please don’t blame yourself. There’s– there is nothing that any of us could have done to stop that tragedy. But– but you just stopped a tragedy from happening. You saved my life. Finn will be so proud of you. So incredibly proud. Hey, let’s, um– let’s go inside. We don’t have to tell anybody what happened, okay?

Sheila: Yeah, maybe I– maybe I should clean up.

Taylor: You think?

Sheila: Yeah. – Look, this isn’t my first rodeo,

[ Indistinct page ]

Hope: I realize this is painful for you. I know how you feel about steffy. You were married to her. You share a daughter.

Liam: Yeah. Yeah, it’s– I mean– it’s a lot of history there. Just keep thinking about all the history. And I– I– I don’t know, the idea of– of losing her, the idea that kelly would lose her. It’s– it just can’T. It can’t end that way. It can’T.

Thomas: Mom. Hey, I’ve been texting. Where have you been?

Taylor: Oh, god. I’m sorry. My– my phone must have been on silent.

Thomas: Are you okay?

Taylor: Yeah. Yeah, um, I was just having a much needed heart to heart. How– how is steffy? Are there any updates?

Thomas: Uh, no, nothing yet.

Liam: Just, um, just waiting, hoping, you know?

Thomas: Yeah, uh, dad’s in with her right now.

Hope: Hopefully he’ll be able to reach her.

Ridge: I don’t know what to do.

[ Machines beeping ] Everyone’s been in here, and they told you how much they love you and– how life would be without you here. And nothing’s changing. Okay.

[ Sighing ] Hi. I know we haven’t talked in a while, and that’s, uh– that’s partly my fault. But I need your help. We need your help. Because you see this beautiful woman right here, this strong warrior. Well, she’s not so strong right now because someone has hurt her very badly. And I don’t think she’s strong enough to pull herself out of this, so she needs a little help from you. I can’t lose her. You’ve already taken my other daughter, and I’m– still not sure why you would do that. Who knows? Maybe it’s a numbers game up there, maybe you just– need the numbers. Well, then maybe you should take me. ‘Cause my bags were packed the day that phoebe died.

[ Breath hitching ] I don’t need to be here anymore. She does. She’s a good person. She has so much to live for. She has two little kids, but you know that already. Why would you give her two kids and not let her finish her job, let her raise them? Help her find her way back. Please. Not for me. For her. Steffy! Steffy, can you hear me? Hey– I mean– don’t strain yourself. It’s gonna be okay. Everything’s gonna be okay. You’re back. Thank you. So what’s going on?

[ Steffy groaning ]

Ridge: Sh, it’s okay. You– you’re at the hospital. But everything’s fine. Ever– everything’s fine. But we need to have you looked at. Okay?

[ Bell ringing ]

Steffy: Ho– hospital.

Ridge: Yeah, but you’re going to be fine. Everything’s going to be fine. There’s a lot of things to talk about, but we don’t need to do that right now. Bridget’s your doctor, and she’s going to come in and she can look you over.

Nurse: Need help?

Ridge: Hey, she’s coming to.

Nurse: Excellent, I’ll get dr. Forrester.

Ridge: I– I can’t wait. I got to tell your mom, that you’re back, you’re back with us.

Bridget: Ridge!

Ridge: Hey, hi. She’s waking up– I think–

Bridget: Steffy!

Sheila: So steffy is– is still unconscious? She hasn’t woken up at all? She hasn’t been able to tell anyone what happened?

Thomas: Not yet. But hopefully soon.

Taylor: We know you want answers for finn, for what happened to him. And we will find them, sheila, as soon as steffy is back with us.

Ridge: She’s awake.

Taylor: What? What?

Ridge: She’s coming to.

Taylor: What?

Ridge: Go!

Thomas: Yeah!

Taylor: Steffy!

Bridget: I don’t know what you said to her, but it worked.

Thomas: Steff, you’re back?

Steffy: B– back?

Bridget: Let’s– let’s give them a little time with her while I order some more tests. I’ll be back soon for a full examination, but in the meantime, just keep it to topics that won’t upset her.

Ridge: Yeah. Okay.

Taylor: Hi, baby, it’s mom. Can you hear me?

Steffy: M– mom?

Taylor: Yes, baby, it’s me. I’m here with your dad and your brother.

Thomas: We knew you’d make it, sis. I mean, you’re the strongest, most resilient girl we’ve ever met.

Steffy: I–

Ridge: Hey! You’re in the hospital. And you had surgery.

Steffy: Sur…

Ridge: Yeah, but you’re gonna be okay. Everything’s going to be okay. And– and, um, we’re looking after the kids, all pitching in– in until until you– you’re back. You know?

Steffy: Dad? Dad?

Ridge: Yeah. I’m right here.

Taylor: Yeah. We’re all here, baby.

Steffy: Mom.

[ Taylor sniffling ]

Thomas: Hey, sis.

Steffy: No.

Taylor: What is it, sweetheart?

Steffy: She… la.
