Ashland: Hello! Our bags are packed. We’re ready to head for the airport.

Victoria: Thank you for handling that.

Ashland: No problem. How are those, uh, “loose ends” on your to-do list coming along?

Victoria: Oh, I’m almost done. I cleared my schedule for the next few days, and I was just putting some finishing touches on a couple of reports that i need to get out.

Ashland: Yeah, you do realize you can work on the plane, right? Or at the palazzo. I mean, it’s not like we’re going on vacation.

Victoria: I know that. I just — I wanted to free us up so that we could figure out what our next move will be without some deadline hanging over our heads. I’m convinced that once we get away from genoa city and all of its distractions, like my family, that we will be able to figure out who’s behind this attack on you and we’ll be able to clear your name…together.

Ashland: I am so looking forward to that. You have no idea.

Victoria: There is something that I should probably mention to you, however.

Ashland: Okay.

Victoria: My father has decided to put adam in charge of the day-to-day while we’re away.

Sally: You are going to be ceo of newman/locke?

Adam: Eh, the interim ceo. While, uh, ashland and victoria are in europe.

Sally: Victor put you in charge. Amazing. I guess he’s not ignoring you after all. That is a huge vote of confidence.

Adam: Ah, well, I have no illusions where my father’s concerned. But, um, I will take it.

Sally: So, while you are off steering the mother ship, where does that leave me?

Adam: [ Sighs ] You already asked me that once.

Sally: Well, I’m asking again.

Adam: The answer’s the same. You and I — we are a team. So I’m gonna need you to step up here big-time.

Sally: Well, you can count on me, adam. You know that.

Adam: I do.

Sally: And victoria agreed to this arrangement? No pushback?

Adam: Eh, well, she wasn’t thrilled, but, uh, she went along with the plan. Not that dad gave her any choice.

Sally: [ Chuckles ] Ah! I love it. But then again, it actually benefits her in a way, frees her up so she can concentrate on how to deal with that piece of scum she’s married to.

Adam: Wow, that’s very astute of you.

Sally: Well, I have my moments. No, this all sounds very encouraging.

Adam: Look, I’m glad that you are very excited about this.

Sally: Aren’t you?

Adam: Sure. It’s nice when an opportunity like this falls in your lap. Still, I just — I can’t figure out what victoria’s game is. And make no mistake — she has one.

[ Glasses thud ]

Elena: [ Sighs ] Hmm. The only thing missing is nate.

Nate: Stop lying. Tell victoria the truth. Don’t let her live with this conflict and suspicion she must have.

Billy: That’s it. You wrestle with that lid there. Show it who’s boss.

Nate: Hey, billy. Um [Chuckles] How you doing?

Billy: I’m alright, man. I should be asking you that, though. Are you okay? It seems like you should be on cloud nine, with the way that your life is going lately.

Nate: Ah, you’re right. Yeah. I’m — I’m living the dream. Everything a man could ever want. But, uh, I had a run-in with ashland locke, and it kinda killed my good mood.

Billy: Yeah, he has a way of doing that. I was gonna ask you about him actually. What happened to that relationship? Because I know you two became pretty good friends.

Nate: Mm. Suffice it to say, I should’ve listened to your doubts about him. The friendship’s over. Turns out ashland isn’t the stand-up guy I thought he was. Actually, far from it.

Billy: Nate, can I ask you a question? What do you know about his current medical condition?

Nate: What do you know? (Rebecca) it wasn’t until after

Billy: Victoria confirmed that her husband is a liar and that the betrayal runs deep. But she did not get into the proof. It was you, wasn’t it? You’re the one that shared the evidence.

Nate: Listen. I was given ample reason to —

Billy: You know, what, nate? I’m gonna stop you right there. I don’t want you to say anything that’s gonna put you in a compromising position, okay? Victoria told me enough. And to be honest, it’s sickening.

Nate: Yeah, I lost a lot of sleep over it. Mostly thinking about how devastated she must be.

Billy: You haven’t spoken to her yet?

Nate: I haven’t had the heart. I brought what I uncovered to victor and adam. I figured I’d let them decide how to proceed. But from what you’re saying, victoria learned the truth.

Billy: Well, what she learned and what she continues to believe could be two different things. I just hope she doesn’t let the guy in again.

[ Cellphone pings ] Excuse me. It’s from nick. “Vick and locke are heading to tuscany. You need to talk to her asap.”

Nate: What? Victoria’s leaving with him? How can she?

Billy: I don’t know. That’s what I’m about to find out. Listen. Thank you for what you did.

Nate: [ Sighs ]

Sally: Trying to crawl inside victoria’s head is a waste of time. If you want to prove that you’re the better ceo, then I need to be a solid right hand, so I need to get up to speed on everything newman/locke, all the big-picture issues, so that i can help you strategize.

Adam: [ Chuckles ] Well, where do you want to start?

Sally: Well, first things first. I am so hungry, I could eat this chair. So, why don’t I go out, grab us something to eat so we can hunker down?

Adam: Sounds good.

[ Cellphone ringing ] Wait. Hang on a second. Let me, uh — let me see who this is first. Chelsea? What’s going on?

Chelsea: What are you doing tomorrow?

Adam: Um…why?

Chelsea: It’s about connor. You know he’s been so out of sorts lately, so I got him tickets to a blackhawks game in chicago as a treat for him.

Adam: That is phenomenal. Those, uh, blackhawk tickets are hard to come by. And connor is so into hockey these days…

Chelsea: Mm-hmm. The problem is, I just found out I have to go to new york on business.

Adam: You’re kidding. Um…well, can you get out of it?

Chelsea: Believe me, I tried. So I was hoping you could take him?

Adam: Um, ordinarily, I would say yes in a heartbeat, but, um, the timing is — is not good for me, either.

Chelsea: Why? What’s going on?

Adam: [ Sighs ] I, uh — I’ve just gotten a promotion of sorts, and I’ve just got too much on my plate. I can’t even think about leaving town right now.

Chelsea: It would only be for one night.

Adam: If I could, I would. I’m not gonna have a free moment, let alone a whole day, for probably the foreseeable future. So, I’m — I’m sorry.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ] Don’t apologize. It’s not your fault. It was an impulse buy on my part. The problem is, I got so excited, I already told connor. He’s gonna be so bummed.

Adam: Uh, I wish that I could help.

Chelsea: Thanks. But it’s my mess. I’ll just have to dig myself out of it. Bye.

[ Cellphone thuds ]

Adam: [ Sighs ] You heard?

Sally: I could tell you felt bad turning her down.

Adam: Yeah, normally i would love a father/son outing with connor. But, you know, taking over for victoria — it’s the chance I’ve been waiting for. So there can’t be any distractions.

Sally: It was a tough call. I understand. And I know spending time with your son is very important to you. But there will be other trips to look forward to. Because you’re right — this is a very crucial moment for your career, so you need to focus, focus, focus.

Adam: [ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ]

Ashland: Why does victor even have a say? We are co-ceos. I mean, this — this feels like the first move in a power play.

Victoria: Everything you just said — that was my first reaction. But I think that there might be a way for us to work this to our advantage.

Ashland: Really? How so?

Victoria: Okay, so, let my father think that he’s controlling his marionette. And fine — fine, let adam feel like he’s king for a day. It doesn’t matter if we’re here in genoa city or we’re at the palazzo in italy. We’re still the ones making the meaningful decisions.

[ Door opens ] And we’re the ones —

Billy: Victoria, I need to talk to you…now. Hi, I’m debra.

Ashland: Billy, as usual, your timing is impeccably bad. Victoria and I are in the middle of a private conversation.

Billy: I understand you’re leaving town, so I need to talk to you now.

Ashland: No. Hold on. How exactly did you know that?

Billy: Nick told me. But that’s not the point why I’m here.

Ashland: Then what is the point?

Billy: It’s an emergency involving the kids, okay? I’m sure you can understand. Vick?

Ashland: Well, fine. Go ahead. Talk. If it involves johnny and katie, then of course I’m concerned, too.

Victoria: I’m sure whatever it is won’t take long, okay? Just give us a few minutes. And then I’ll be right with you.

Ashland: Okay. Uh, yeah, there’s a few things that I need to take care of, too, so, uh, I’ll be back as soon as I can.

Victoria: Okay. Thank you.

Victoria: So…what’s wrong with johnny and katie? Are they okay?

Billy: Yes. They’re fine. And I want to make sure that i keep it that way. Which is why I’m here — to help make sure that you do the right thing.

Elena: [ Sighs ]

[ Doorbell rings ] You forgot your key, didn’t you?

Devon: Oh, I know we’re friends, but we don’t have a key to your place.

Amanda: Yet.

[ Laughter ]

Elena: Hey. Come on in.

Devon: Thank you.

Elena: I thought you guys were nate. He just went to go pick up some food.

Amanda: Oh, well, now you have a little something to wash it down with.

Devon: And we got some housewarming gifts for you guys from the both of us.

Elena: That is so sweet. You shouldn’t have.

Amanda: Well, we wanted to.

Elena: Well, thank you so much. This is so kind.

Devon: You’re very, very welcome.

Elena: Well, let’s sit.

Amanda: You know, devon and I — we’re really thrilled to have the two of you so close by.

Devon: Yeah, we sure are. I know that, uh, neil really enjoyed living here. I hope you guys do, too.

Elena: I think we definitely will.

Amanda: And I love what you’ve done with the place, you know, all the little personal touches.

Elena: Yeah. Yeah. Here and there. I mean, we were lucky to be able to buy the place fully furnished, but I think over time, we’ll be able to add our own personal things. ‘Cause everything else in the house was a little more traditional and didn’t really fit in this space.

Devon: I see you got a lot of flowers and the champagne on ice and you’re all dressed up. I feel like, uh, we’re intruding. I think they’re trying to have a date.

Amanda: Oh, no. We can — we can do this another time.

Elena: No, no, no, no, no! Please stay. You are not intruding. Nate is running late, and i would love to be able to celebrate with someone. And besides, I think nate would love to christen this new place with our new neighbors.

Chelsea: Hello, sally.

Sally: Hi. Wow. That actually seemed polite.

Chelsea: Don’t look so stunned.

Sally: Is it possible that we might actually be able to co-exist in this town?

Chelsea: [ Sighs ] Listen, i don’t have a reason — or, quite frankly, the energy — to wage any kind of war with you anymore. We’ve both moved on. We’re not in each other’s orbit anymore.

Sally: Well, I mean, that’s not entirely true. We still kind of are. Orbiting, that is. Because of adam. When you called to have him take connor to the blackhawks game, I was in the office.

Chelsea: Oh, you heard all that.

Sally: I’m really sorry it didn’t turn out like you were hoping.

Chelsea: You actually sound like you mean that.

Sally: Connor’s cool. I have nothing against him. Or you. And I assume you must be really busy at work, choosing a business trip over a mother-son bonding experience.

Chelsea: Okay, well, um, it actually sounds like adam had to make that same difficult decision, apparently. Seems like his hands are really full over there.

Sally: Oh, more than full. We are buried.

Chelsea: Ugh, it sounds tedious. I’m just so glad to be away from the newman business and all that family drama.

Sally: To me, it’s an absolute blast. I love working with adam.

Chelsea: Mm. Good. Well, I wish you all the best. Both of you. I’m really hoping adam’s found what he was looking for.

Ashland: We need to get a few things straight.

Adam: Does this mean you’ve reconsidered my offer? I won’t publish the news about your fraudulent cancer if you leave genoa city and never come back.

Ashland: Yeah, you would like that, wouldn’t you? Well, the fact is, yes, I am leaving town, but not because of cheap threats and ultimatums. I am actually going to tuscany with my beautiful wife. But then, you already know that, don’t you? Because your daddy has appointed you pretend-ceo.

Adam: [ Chuckles ] Why are you here?

Ashland: Oh, uh, I thought you could use a few lessons on how to conduct yourself in this new role you find yourself playing. First of all, you’re not gonna post any of those stories about me.

Adam: Why is that?

Ashland: Because, ironically, by putting you in charge, victor has neutralized that particular threat. Publishing anything about how i somehow hoodwinked the entire newman family into appointing me co-ceo would reflect very badly on the, uh, “interim” boss. That’s you. And, uh, the press would be hounding you for more details. You would be buckling under the pressure. The company itself would suffer irreparable damage. Not to mention the fact that all of that gets worse once I reveal that the entire story is based on nothing but lies.

Adam: Well, thank you for your cogent analysis. But I think I’ll make my own judgment calls, just as my father has empowered me to.

With age comes more…

Amanda: It’s beautiful.

Devon: Yeah.

Elena: Here you go.

Devon: Thank you so much.

Amanda: Thank you.-

Elena: You’re welcome.

[ Door opens ]

Devon: There he is.

Elena: There you are! The food must be ice cold. Where’s the food?

Nate: Uh, you know, I must’ve left it in the car.

[ Sighs ]

Elena: Excuse me.

[ Chuckles ] Everything okay?

Devon: We just came to welcome you to the building, but we can come and do this another time.

Nate: Guys, no. Stay, please. I’m sorry. I was just a bit distracted.

Amanda: Why? Did something happen?

Nate: Uh, when I went to pick up the food, I ran into ashland locke. He wasn’t happy that I turned down his job offer.

Elena: Did you guys exchange words?

Nate: No, it just unsettled me a bit, that’s all. Hey, but what better way to forget that than to toast to our new apartment, beautiful girlfriend, and our amazing neighbors?

Victoria: [ Scoffs ] You used our children to get me alone. That’s pretty low.

Billy: I did not lie. This is about our children. And the fact that you don’t seem to care that that monster lied to you about being sick in order to get control of your company. And then I find out you’re leaving the country with him, after everything you told me, vick. So, uh, forgive me, but I am concerned about you.

Victoria: Well, don’t be.

Billy: I need to know that you are not going to forgive him.

Victoria: Or what? Are you gonna try to take the kids away from me? You don’t even know what my plan is, and you’re passing judgment on how I’m handling this situation.

Billy: [ Sighs ] Vick, I am not here to attack you. I am on your side. I’m here as your friend and the person that you confided in when you found out what ashland did. So tell me your plan. You can trust me, I swear to you. Vick, I need to know that you are not going to let him convince you to give him another chance. And you jetting off to another country with him makes me think that maybe you are. So I’m worried.

Victoria: I promise you, i can handle care of myself. But don’t you dare suggest that I would ever put our kids in jeopardy.

Billy: I’m not worried about your actions, okay? I’m worried about his.

Ashland: Let me make something clear to you, adam. You are a place-holder. Nothing more. Your father has installed you in this position to put out fires, basically, not to make, you know, important decisions. You’re like the babysitter. You are babysitting the home office until we get back, not running the empire.

Adam: I find it interesting that you felt the need to come here to tell me this. ‘Cause victoria doesn’t have a problem with it. So, are you worried about something?

Ashland: Concerning you? No.

Adam: Because, from my perspective, you should feel lucky. You dodged one hell of a bullet. For victoria to still be taking your side, after all the evidence my family has shown her — it’s remarkable. Truly. I mean, she must still trust you, which just — it blows my mind. Maybe you really are indestructible.

Ashland: Or maybe she just has more faith in me than the rest of you put together. Maybe she’s not as easily duped as the rest of you. Imagine that. She knows better than all the newmans not to believe these ridiculous accusations against me.

Adam: You’re still playing the innocent card. God, you really are a piece of work. I admire you almost as much as i despise you. I mean, how is that for a dilemma?

Ashland: I couldn’t care less what you think about me or what your father thinks about me. Victoria’s opinion is the only one that matters.

Adam: What about harrison’s? I’d like to think his opinion matters. At least, when he gets old enough to understand exactly what his father has done.

Ashland: You son of a bitch. Don’t get too comfortable in whatever this position is. We’ll be back soon.

Adam: Have a safe flight! If you have type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Nate: There is so much to celebrate, how can we possibly choose?

Devon: Oh. How about we choose amanda going back into the corporate world with her big new job at chancellor?

Amanda: Oh, no, no, no. Then we have to toast to you and lily and your merger and your redesigning of your companies.

Nate: Better yet, let’s drink to elena, a rising star at memorial, and to this next chapter in our life in this amazing penthouse which she’s already made into a home.

Elena: Not so fast. I think the biggest leap forward here, in my opinion, is nate’s huge career change. It’s not every day that you give up your life’s work to tackle a new profession. What’s wrong?

Amanda: Nothing. Your toast was fine.

Devon: I’ll ask the question. Uh, how do you really feel about nate leaving medicine and coming to work with lily and me?

Nate: That’s a good question.

Sally: Well, I appreciate the attitude change. Too bad we couldn’t have gotten there sooner because maybe together with chloe, the three of us could have saved newman fashion.

Chelsea: Mnh, I seriously doubt that…for the simple reason I don’t think the three of us would be able to work for adam and expect it to go smoothly.

Sally: I see your point.

Chelsea: It all worked out the way it was supposed to, you know? We all ended up where we belong.

Sally: Does this newfound civility extend to the personal as well as the professional?

Chelsea: Listen, I don’t know what’s going on between you and adam. And, quite frankly, I’m not interested. But know this — whatever it is, I will deal with it.

Billy: Victoria, leaving the country with ashland is not safe.

Victoria: Oh, come on. Don’t be melodramatic.

Billy: I’m not sure what’s going on here, but you were the one pondering what his end game is. You were the one questioning whether he is capable of harming you. And why do you think he would go to such lengths in order to con you to merger companies and then share the power? It goes against everything we know about him. And if newman is the ultimate power grab, then, victoria, you are simply someone standing in his way.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Enough already. I don’t believe for one second that he intends to physically harm me. You have to trust me on this.

Billy: You’re not asking me to trust you, victoria. You’re asking me to trust him, and I don’t because I know what he’s capable of.

Victoria: Okay, well, fine then. If it makes you feel better, my father’s men will be “secretly” shadowing me while we’re away. I’m sure they’ll be intermingled with all of the staff at the palazzo. So I have my own security team. Not that I asked for one, but you know my dad.

Billy: [ Sighs ] Yeah, that does make me feel a little bit better, but you still haven’t answered the question. Why are you going to italy with him?

Victoria: I have my reasons. Now please go.

Billy: That’s not good enough, victoria. I need to know more.

Victoria: Fine. When I needed somebody to talk to, I turned to you. I showed you my vulnerable side. Because I knew that deep down, you are the one person that knows me. And I know you care about me.

Billy: Yeah, I do.

Victoria: I’ve looked at this from every angle. And I don’t think that I’m at risk. And I have a plan. And when I’m through, I promise you, billy, our children will not be exposed to ashland anymore.

Billy: I hope you’re right about that.

Victoria: [ Sighs ]

Billy: Just promise me that you are going to be careful.

[ Door closes ]

Victoria: [ Sighing heavily ] (Nathan m) secondhand smoke

Ashland: So, how did it go with billy? Are johnny and katie okay? Do we have to postpone the trip?

Victoria: No and no. He was just using it as a cheap trick. He used the kids as an excuse to talk to me alone.

Ashland: Alone. I see. For what reason? And, by the way, why is nick telling him that we’re going to tuscany? Since when does your brother confide in your ex?

Victoria: It seems that nick filled him in on everything. So billy took it upon himself to get involved. He warned me not to trust you and that you probably intend to do me harm and take over newman/locke.

Ashland: Do you harm? How dare he.

Victoria: Because he’s billy.

Ashland: What the hell is he doing putting ideas like that into your head?

Victoria: No. That’s not what’s happening, okay? I believe you. I know that you would never harm me. Ever.

Ashland: This smear campaign has got to stop. How long before it’s everywhere and we can’t control the story anymore?

Victoria: What do you expect? My family’s desperate. Why else would they involve billy?

Ashland: Please tell me he didn’t get to you. I can handle billy and your father and your brothers and your entire family thinking badly of me. I can even handle the public humiliation. But the idea that you would think, even for a moment, that i would harm you… all I care about is what you think.

Sally: Thank you. Anyway, it was really nice chatting with you. I mean that. And hopefully we can do it again sometime.

Chelsea: Uh —

Rey: Ladies.

Chelsea: Hey! Seeing you twice in one day — how lucky is that?

Sally: Lucky, indeed.

Chelsea: Well, I always love bumping into you.

Rey: Same here.

Chelsea: The bartender should be back any minute.

Rey: Yeah. No worries. So, I couldn’t help overhearing your conversation with sally, when you said that whatever’s going on between her and adam, you’ll deal with it. If you meant that —

Chelsea: Oh, I did.

Rey: Good. I’m happy for you. I know how hard it is for some people to get adam out of their system. I commend you for cutting the cord.

Chelsea: It wasn’t easy. I pretended I was okay way before I actually was.

Rey: I’m don’t think I’ve ever seen you like this.

Chelsea: Like what?

Rey: Happy.

[ Both laugh ]

Chelsea: I really am. Can you believe it? I mean, I was in a toxic cycle for so long, I don’t think i remember what it’s like to not be in one.

Rey: Good for you.

Chelsea: Yeah, you know, sally was over here earlier talking to me, goading me, trying to get a rise out of me about adam, and the truth is, the idea of the two of them being together doesn’t really bother me. I didn’t even have to put on an act with her.

Rey: What helped you turn the corner?

Chelsea: Honestly, I — I think you did.

[ Both laugh ] Your friendship and, you know, all those pep talks. It was really helpful. So keep them coming, detective.

Rey: Oh, I will. Although I think you’re giving me too much credit. I’ve seen how hard you’ve worked to transform your life.

Chelsea: I have. Thanks for noticing.

Rey: I mean, you even seem happier than when I saw you earlier today, when you were worried about connor and how moody he’s been.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ]

Rey: Maybe I spoke too soon. Did he cop an attitude with you?

Chelsea: Not yet, but I have a feeling he’s about to. And I have no one to blame but myself.

Sally: I brought us a feast.

Adam: Good.

Sally: Do you want to eat it now, or should we hold off?

Adam: I, uh, thought you were starved.

Sally: I am made of tough stuff. What have you been working on?

Adam: I’m actually not much further along than I was when you left. Ashland came by.

Sally: Let me guess. He found out you were stepping in for victoria and he’s having a cow.

Adam: It was a bit more interesting than that.

Sally: Oh?

Adam: He decided to school me on how I should handle myself at newman/locke. Like I’ve never run a company before.

Sally: What advice did he give you?

Adam: He told me that I, uh, should not make good on my threat to publish articles about him faking his cancer diagnosis.

Sally: Well, sounds more like a warning than a tutorial.

Adam: [ Chuckles ] Semantics.

Sally: You know, it’s really ironic that he would play that card since we already decided that it could damage newman if the story came out prematurely.

Adam: I made the same case. But I didn’t let him know that we came to that conclusion on our own. I mean, the guy seemed off. He was unnerved. Like the way he was coming in here and trying to intimidate me — it was a tell.

Sally: Like in poker.

Adam: Mm-hmm. It’s a weak move on his part. And ashland locke does not do “weak.”

Sally: Do you think he’s scared?

Adam: If he’s smart, he is. I don’t know. Maybe that was dad’s strategy, to do something so jarring by giving me the reins, throw locke off his game.

Sally: Apparently, it worked.

Adam: Mm-hmm. Like I said, victoria’s up to something, too. I’d like to think her eyes are finally open and she’s siding with the family behind the scenes. You know, that she’s playing locke the same way that he played her and then trying to remove him from her life and from the company with surgical precision.

Sally: I can’t wait to see it happen.

Adam: Well, if that’s the case, maybe she thinks the smartest way to do it is a one-on-one far away from genoa city. Which is fine by me. Give me the opportunity to show dad just how capable I am. And how much better equipped i am to run newman/locke than my gullible sister will ever be. People will say

Elena: Um, I have to say, nate’s decision did take some getting used to. I’ve only ever thought of him as a doctor. And he cares about his patients so deeply. Some would even argue too much.

Nate: [ Chuckles ]

Elena: It sometimes takes a toll. And, as you guys know, we met in the medical world. And it’s been amazing, working together. I have learned so much.

Nate: Well, my hours should be better. And the pay is excellent. And I should have more time and energy to lavish on the woman i love.

Elena: Well, now, that is a great perk. But I will say the biggest reason that I am behind this decision is because nate is gonna be working with his family. And I think that is going to be so rewarding.

Nate: Couldn’t have said it better myself.

Amanda: Look at the four of us. It really is incredible. We’re all so blessed.

Devon: Yeah, we are. And I think I have the perfect toast.

Amanda: Really?

Devon: I do. To new adventures for all of us. Cheers, guys.

Elena: Cheers.

Amanda: Cheers.

Nate: Cheers.

Devon: Mmm.

Amanda: Good toast.

Chelsea: The talk we had the other day inspired me to do something special for connor, since he was missing the sports program at his boarding school, you know? So I splurged on blackhawk tickets, the ones that you told me about. I was gonna drive us down to chicago and make a whole fun trip out of it.

Rey: Sounds amazing. -Why would connor be upset?

Chelsea: The problem is i just found out that I have to go to new york on business. Adam can’t take him, either, and I told connor about it already, hoping it would give him something to look forward to.

Rey: Only now, he’s going to feel let down.

Chelsea: Ugh. Royally. I’m gonna go back to “worst mom ever” status in no time.

Rey: [ Chuckles ]

Finn: Do I, uh — I look okay? I feel a little, you know… [ Inhales sharply ]

Elizabeth: You look very dapper for a man who’s been sleeping on the couch for the past few nights.

Finn: Are you kidding me? I’m starting to love that couch.

Elizabeth: [ Chuckles ]

Finn: Yeah. Yeah. I noticed Cam wasn’t in his room.

Elizabeth: Yeah, he and Josslyn went to visit Trina. She’s out on bail, and they just want to support her.

Finn: Hmm. I read Joss and Cam’s interview in The Invader. It took a lot of courage to get out in front of this thing and tell their side of the story. That’s a — that’s a pretty great kid you raised.

Elizabeth: Thanks. I agree.

Finn: Mm.

Elizabeth: But this whole thing with the video is far from over.

Elizabeth: I’m just glad Cameron and Josslyn’s relationship is so solid and that they don’t have to go through this nightmare alone. And neither does Trina.

Finn: Neither do you. I’ll be right here, by your side, no matter what happens.

Elizabeth: I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Finn: Yeah?

Amy: Oh, my god. I mean, the lyrics, the lyrics and the tune.

Maxie: Okay, Amy, we get it. You like Brook Lynn’s song.

Amy: And I love that Lucy’s exclusively using local talent.

Brook Lynn: [ Chuckles ]

Amy: Speaking of talent…

Brook Lynn: [ Clears throat ]

Britt: Thank you. I owe you.

Terry: You do owe me, big time. I have better things to do than interview someone completely inappropriate to work at this hospital.

Britt: But you agreed to give Brad a chance.

Terry: Which is why you owe me.

Britt: I swear, Terry, Brad’s time in prison has changed him. He’s — he’s grown. He’s matured.

Terry: Not kept any newborn infants from their rightful parents and passed them off as his own?

Britt: [ Sighs ] Please, will you just go into this with an open mind?

Terry: Fine. [ Chuckles ]

[ Knock on door ]

Brad: Dr. Randolph. So great to see you again. I just want to say, you’re even more beautiful than I remember.

Nikolas: Spencer. You okay?

Spencer: Good evening, Father.

Nikolas: You all settled in?

Spencer: Thanks for getting all my things out of storage. My bedroom has been perfectly reconstructed.

Nikolas: Probably because your things were never in storage. Your room’s always been waiting for you.

Spencer: Even after I renounced all things Cassadine?

Nikolas: Even then.

Spencer: So you thought that I’d come crawling back? That I’d cave?

Nikolas: I kept your room intact because you’re my child. A father never gives up on his child. And if Esme is actually pregnant, you’ll learn that soon enough.

Ava: Nikolas, my sweet. Where are you?

Esme: He’s upstairs. Hello, Ava. Rough day?

Ava: What the hell are you doing in my house? Get out of here, before I throw you out.

Finn: You sure you don’t want to come with me to dinner?

Elizabeth: [ Chuckles ]

Finn: Gregory would love to see you.

Elizabeth: This is… oh, thank you. This is Gregory’s first trip back in quite some time. I’m sure he would appreciate some alone time with you and Chase and Violet. And besides, you and I were just getting together when he left town. He’s not really used to seeing us as a couple.

Finn: But he knows we are, because — because I’ve become much better at communicating with him lately.

Elizabeth: Chase told him?

Finn: He would have, but Violet beat him to it.

[ Sighs, laughs ]

Finn: Okay, alright. Well, if you and Laura — you finish up early, then feel free to come on by. I mean, my dad really likes you. In fact, I’m pretty sure he thinks you could do much, much better.

Elizabeth: Well, then, he would be wrong.

Finn: You’re amazing. You know that?

[ Doorbell rings ]

Elizabeth: It’s Laura.

Finn: Mm.

Elizabeth: Hi.

Laura: Hi. Hope I’m not too late. Or too early?

Finn: No, no. Your timing was perfect. I was just leaving. But, you know, if you change your mind and you want to have dinner at the Metro Court, I’m buying.

Elizabeth: No, go, go.

Finn: Are you sure?

Elizabeth: Have fun.

Finn: Okay, alright. I’m leaving.

[ Chuckles ]

Elizabeth: Come in. Thank you so much for coming over.

Laura: Well, I wish I could have gotten here sooner. Tell me, how is Cam holding up?

Elizabeth: Better than I am.

Laura: Oh, sweetie.

Violet: There’s Brook Lynn. Let’s go say hi to her.

Chase: Sure, we can try.

Brook Lynn: Okay, I’m just gonna —

Maxie: What — What — what are you doing?

Brook Lynn: I forgot something downstairs.

Violet: Hi, Brook Lynn.

Brook Lynn: Hi, sweetie! It’s so good to see you. Oh, you look so beautiful.

Violet: I do. We’re having dinner with Grandpa Gregory. I wanted to look special.

Brook Lynn: Well, mission accomplished.

Violet: How’s your baby?

Brook Lynn: Um…

Maxie: Bailey is doing great. Do you want to see some pictures?

Violet: Yes, please.

Maxie: Come over here.

[ Brook Lynn clears throat ]

Chase: I’m sorry about that.

Brook Lynn: Sorry about what?

Chase: I spoke with Violet about Bailey, but she still doesn’t quite get it.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, well, who can blame her? Even we needed a scorecard sometimes.

Amy: What about Chase?

Chase: What about me?

Brook Lynn: Amy, no.

Amy: Oh, come on. He’d be perfect.

Brook Lynn: No, he’s not.

Amy: Uh, I beg to differ.

Brook Lynn: Okay, we’ve been over this, okay? Chase has made it perfectly clear that he doesn’t want to be involved.

Amy: We haven’t even asked him.

Brook Lynn: I did.

Amy: When?

Brook Lynn: Before!

Amy: Where?

Brook Lynn: Not here! Has it ever occurred to you that the entire universe still exists when you leave a room?

Amy: If you took that tone with him, it’s no wonder he said no.

Brook Lynn: I didn’t take a tone with him.

Amy: Do you mind if I ask him, then?

Brook Lynn: Yes, I mind, okay? He doesn’t want to be a part of it, and, frankly, I agree with him.

Amy: [ Scoffs ] Well, then you’re both idiots.

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ]

Terry: I’m not ready for you yet.

Britt: We’ll just wait outside.

Terry: Thank you.

Brad: [ Sighs ] [ Groans ]

Britt: What was that?

Brad: Sorry. I got nervous. I went for the compliment.

Britt: Okay, well, pull it together. I-I had to beg Terry to even talk to you.

Brad: And for that, I’m eternally grateful.

Britt: [ Sighs ] You have no idea.

Brad: Britt, is this hopeless?

Britt: It’s a long shot. But Terry’s fair, and she promised she would give you a chance to plead your case.

Brad: Like about why I kept Wiley from his family and claimed he was mine and Lucas’?

Britt: No, no, do not say that.

Brad: Okay, then what case? I’ve been in the slammer. “Case” means something entirely different to me now.

Britt: Bradley, you’re going to go in there and tell Dr. Randolph — and please remember to call her Dr. Randolph, not Terry…

Brad: Dr. Randolph. Dr. Randolph. Okay.

Britt: …That you are a kick-ass lab tech who knows his stuff, which makes you the ideal advocate to explain medical tests and procedures to concerned patients.

Brad: Okay. Got it. I can do this.

Britt: Mm-hmm.

Brad: [ Exhales sharply ] Thanks, pretty lady. For everything.

Britt: I’m with you all the way.

Li: Dr. Westbourne? You need to come with me.

Spencer: How did you feel when you found out I was your son?

Nikolas: Shocked. Scared.

Spencer: Great. Thanks.

Nikolas: [ Sighs ] That’s when I found out. The first time that I held you, all of that went away, and in its place, it… there was this love that I’d never experienced before.

Spencer: Those were the days, huh?

Nikolas: I still love you. Never stopped. And if Esme is pregnant, I will be right by your side, if you want me there.

Esme: Oh, there appears to have been a misunderstanding.

Ava: Nope. This is my house. You’re not welcome.

Esme: I’m sorry you feel that way, but I’m not leaving.

Ava: The only question is how much hair you’ll have left on your head when you go.

Esme: You might want to run that by your husband. He invited me to stay.

Ava: He wouldn’t.

Esme: Spence will be staying here, too. We’ll all be one big, happy family.

Ava: You’re lying. Nikolas would never do this without talking to me first.

Esme: Mm. And yet he did.

Ava: My husband may have fallen for this helpless waif act, but I haven’t. I’ll set Nikolas straight. I hope you haven’t unpacked.

Esme: Ava. You seem to be a little bit behind the times, so let me catch you up. You could be a grandmother soon. Well, step-grandmother. Because I just might be pregnant.

Ava: Nikolas!

Elizabeth: Cameron told me the police think Trina Robinson posted the video.

Laura: She was arraigned today.

Elizabeth: It’s impossible. Cameron and Josslyn are her best friends. She would never.

Laura: And from what I know about Trina Robinson, I couldn’t agree more, but Jordan couldn’t ignore the evidence.

Elizabeth: Oh, what, that they found the phone in her bag? Clearly, somebody put it in there just to frame her. I’m sure you know who the kids think it is.

Laura: I do. [ Chuckles ] But I’m afraid I can’t comment.

Elizabeth: No, I know. It’s okay.

Laura: What I can say — I have faith that the PCPD will uncover the truth.

Elizabeth: I hope they do it quickly, because right now, I don’t have it in me to weather another crisis.

Laura: The police haven’t found out anything about who broke in here and why they left the portrait?

Elizabeth: No, no. Apparently, they don’t have much to go on. But on the bright side, we did rule out another suspect.

Laura: Well, that’s good. Who?

Elizabeth: Jake.

Laura: Jake? Why do you think he would do that?

Elizabeth: He and Franco were so, so close, and he wouldn’t be the first kid to object to his mother’s new boyfriend. But also, he’s just… I don’t know. He’s been off lately. A-and I got worried.

Laura: Worried how?

Elizabeth: Well, I felt like he was keeping something from me. Turns out, I was right.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Keys chirping ]

[ Cellphone thuds ]

Brad: Li, what are you doing here?

Britt: Uh, I have my meeting with your aunt Selina tonight. But I was expecting her to text me, not send an escort.

Brad: Wow, why didn’t you tell me that was tonight?

Britt: Because I didn’t want you to worry. I know you were stressed about your meeting.

Brad: But I wanted to come with, run interference between you and my aunt.

Britt: It’s fine. I’ll be fine. Mr. Li, is it? We should get going. Uh, where are we going?

Brad: Call me the second it’s over.

Britt: I promise. Good luck.

Brad: Right back at ya.

Amy: You know, Brook Lynn, I’m done with your tone. Detective, explain yourself.

Chase: Uh, well…

Amy: Brook Lynn’s song?

Brook Lynn: There’s plenty of local talent to choose from.

Amy: But Lucy wants to give first dibs to people who’ve performed at The Nurses’ Ball, and detective Chase has.

Brook Lynn: Amy, can we just drop it, okay? He doesn’t want to, so you don’t have to pressure him.

Chase: Brook Lynn, can we…?

Brook Lynn: Yeah, sure. Okay. [ Sighs ]

Chase: I thought we were good.

Brook Lynn: We are. Amy just didn’t realize that you’d already turned me down.

Chase: It’s just, I’m not a professional singer.

Brook Lynn: We don’t have to go over it again, okay? I-I know that you think that singing for Deception would hurt your image.

Chase: I didn’t mean it in that way.

Brook Lynn: Oh, yeah? Then in what totally-secure-with-yourself, don’t-care-what-people-think of-you way did you mean it?

Chase: Okay, maybe I did mean it in that way a little bit, but I have to think about going back on the force. I mean, my suspension’s not gonna last forever.

Gregory: I should hope not.

Chase: Dad?

Gregory: [ Laughing ]

Chase: Hey.

Gregory: So good to see you, son.

Chase: Ohh!

Gregory: Ohh. I’m sorry it’s been so long.

Chase: No, it’s okay. You’re here now. Hey, I want to introduce you to Brook Lynn Quartermaine.

Gregory: It’s alright. I know exactly who she is.

Nikolas: Ava, I am so sorry —

Ava: What the hell are you thinking bringing Esme into my house?

Spencer: It’s father’s house, not yours.

Nikolas: Esme, Spencer, I need to speak to Ava alone.

Nikolas: Fine.

Esme: I hope I didn’t cause any trouble. I never meant —

Ava: We all know what you meant.

[ Door closes ]

Ava: Explain.

Esme: What did I tell you? We’re already coming between your father and Ava.

Spencer: Great. Let’s go.

Esme: Go? Don’t you want to stay and hear the fight?

Spencer: Normally, I’d enjoy nothing more than watching my father’s marriage implode, but right now, we have things to do.

Esme: Such as…?

Spencer: It’s time to take that pregnancy test.

Gregory: You’re the reason my son got suspended.

Chase: Whoa, Dad. I told you I punched Valentin Cassadine. I got angry and I lost control, and I’m responsible for my own actions. Brook Lynn had nothing to do with it.

Brook Lynn: Well, that’s not entirely true. Chase punched Valentin to defend my honor.

Gregory: And pretended to be the father of your child. A child who wasn’t even yours.

Chase: Dad.

Violet: Grandpa!

Gregory: Hey, there she is. How’s my little princess? I’m going to go claim our table.

Chase: I am so sorry.

Brook Lynn: What for? He’s not wrong. Chase, I had everything to do with your suspension. I don’t take accountability for anything in my life, but even I can’t deny that.

Chase: Well, I can deny it, because it’s not true.

Finn: Hey, I’m the last one here?

Gregory: Hey.

Finn: Hey! I missed you! Ahh.

Gregory: It’s good to see you, son.

Finn: You, too, dad. Good to see you, too.

Chase: Brook Lynn, listen…

Brook Lynn: Look, the gang’s all here. You enjoy your family tonight.

Finn: Who’s hungry?

Violet: I am!

Finn: You’re hungry? How about you? You hungry?

Gregory: -Oh, absolutely.

Finn: -Alright, we’re hungry.

Amy: Darn it, my shift’s about to start. I have to go.

Maxie: Bye, Amy.

[ Indistinct chatter ]

Laura: Why would Jake hide the fact that his grandparents had reached out to him?

Elizabeth: He thought I would be angry if I found out. And truthfully, I’m furious, but not with Jake. My parents went behind my back, contacted him directly, without my knowledge, without my permission. Do you think I’m overreacting?

Laura: No. No. I think you have every right to be angry. You know, I’ve known Jeff for so long. I’ve just never understood why he and your mother don’t seem more interested in having a relationship with you and the boys.

Elizabeth: I’ve tried to come to terms with my parents’ choices. I mean, they’ve sacrificed a lot in pursuit of a higher calling. They’re worried about the world, just not about their daughter.

Laura: The hell with the world. You’re their daughter. It just makes no sense.

Ava: I just came from Trina’s arraignment. My Trina, in court because of that Esme.

Nikolas: There’s no proof.

Ava: Proof?! Are you seriously going to stand there with a straight face and talk to me about proof? You and I have done a lot of things. Is there proof? No. But we still did them.

Nikolas: You’re right. Maybe Trina didn’t do this, but that doesn’t —

Ava: Oh, please, Nikolas. Please tell me that you’re not falling for that helpless act of hers.

Nikolas: Esme is in danger.

Ava: Oh, God.

Nikolas: Sonny’s goons snatched her right off of the street, in front of Charlie’s.

Ava: So?

Nikolas: So, you know better than anyone how dangerous Sonny can be.

Ava: Yes, I do. And that’s precisely why I asked him to take care of Esme.

Spencer: Hey, unh-unh. Wrong room. Bathroom’s two doors down.

Esme: I need a second.

Nikolas: You’ve been putting this off for days.

Esme: This is a huge deal, Spence. What if I am pregnant?

Spencer: Esme, we’ve talked this to death. Just take the test.

Esme: Maybe I don’t want to take the test, because if I find out that I’m not pregnant, I could be at Sonny’s mercy again.

Spencer: Please. Uncle Sonny didn’t hurt you.

Esme: He said — he said he could make me disappear, so yes, I have been stalling, because no matter what this test says, my life is gonna change. I mean, if it’s negative, I’ll be all alone in the world again. And if it’s positive, you and I will be tied to each other forever.

Terry: Take a seat. Sorry for keeping you waiting.

Brad: Oh, I’m just, uh, grateful for the opportunity.

Terry: The opportunity to be an orderly?

Brad: Uh, well…

[ Door closes ]

Brad: Look, I-I know I can never work in a lab again, but Britt — Dr. Westbourne and I talked about me being a patient advocate.

Terry: And here I thought this was a general interview.

Brad: Uh, yeah, that’s — that’s fine, too.

Terry: Okay, Mr. Cooper, I’m going to level with you. I do not trust you enough to let you advise patients. If I were to sign off on hiring you, and that is a massively big if, orderly’s the only job I’d consider.

Brad: If I may —

Terry: Mm-hmm.

Brad: Now, if you look at my old performance evaluations, you’ll see that when I ran the lab, I was consistently praised for my efficiency.

Terry: Well, lab tests take less time when you’re falsifying the results.

Brad: I made mistakes, and I’ve paid for them. I’ve served my time, and I-I’m ready to start over. And I was just hoping that, even with what you know about me, you might still believe in second chances.

Selina: Good evening, Dr. Westbourne.

Britt: Ms. Wu. And here I thought this place was popular.

Selina: I wanted us to have privacy, so I bought out the entire restaurant.

Britt: Oh. Better and better.

Selina: Problem?

Britt: No. It’s just been a night of surprises. Private dining, a personal escort. Here I was expecting a text, and instead… uh, I guess I’m just finding it all a little excessive for a friendly dinner?

Selina: But we are not friends.

Britt: No, I guess we’re not. But that’s what this dinner is all about, right? To get to know each other? For Brad’s sake.

Selina: No, Dr. Westbourne, that’s not what’s happening here.

Elizabeth: This all doesn’t sound petty to you? Like, “I know you’re saving orphans and refugees, but pay attention to me”?

[ Both chuckle ]

Laura: Honey, no. Look, I-I don’t want to minimize the good that Jeff and Carolyn are doing in the world, but I’ve seen it, you know? Every time your parents miss another milestone in your life, I see how much it hurts you. Weddings, births, deaths. You needed them to be there with you, and they weren’t.

Elizabeth: Thank you for saying that. And thank you for verifying that I’m not this awful, petty person I think I am.

Laura: No. Oh, my goodness. I understand your pain. I really do. But it worries me a little that holding on to all of this ill will, that could be hurting you now.

Elizabeth: So I should just let it go? I mean, really, I thought I had, but now here they are, talking to my kid.

Laura: This is just a suggestion, but if Jeff and Carolyn are reaching out now, maybe this is the time to let them back into your life. Not for them. For the kids. And for you.

Violet: Thank you.

Finn: Thank you.

Violet: Let’s go wash our hands before dinner.

Finn: You’re right. They’re absolutely filthy. Bring Sophia. We’ll wash her hands, too. Let’s go.

Gregory: So, how have you been occupying your time —

Chase: What the hell was that, dad? What was what? Why were you being so rude to Brook Lynn?

Gregory: Rude? How? By — by stating the facts? She admitted it was her fault you were suspended.

Chase: Okay. You want facts, Dad? I’ll give you facts. Fact — Brook Lynn was trying to pull one over on Valentin. But fact — Peter August is a very dangerous person, and Brook Lynn was risking her life for a child.

Gregory: That’s a bit of an exaggeration, don’t you think

Chase: He gladly would have killed her. Dad, he was the one who poisoned me. But Brook Lynn faced her fears and the wrath from Valentin and her family to keep Maxie’s little baby safe. And the whole time, she was falling for this little girl that she knew she would have to give back. So you want facts, Dad? There you go.

Gregory: Son, I have to ask… do you have feelings for Brook Lynn?

Chase: Brook Lynn and I are friends.

Gregory: That’s not what I asked.

Chase: Come on. You’re judging someone you don’t even know.

Finn: So, uh, sweetheart, what do you want to eat?

Violet: I want to know why Uncle Chase was yelling at Grandpa.

Gregory: It’s okay, honey. Your uncle and I were just having a discussion.

Violet: Discussion? That means quiet yelling.

Britt: Why did you want to talk to me?

Selina: I want what’s best for Brad.

Britt: So do I. Is this about the job? Look… I know Brad appreciates your job offer, but he really wants to work at G.H. again. It’s important for Brad to build a new life on his own terms so he’ll succeed after being in prison.

Selina: You consider menial labor at a hospital a new life? Success?

Britt: He’s owned up to his mistakes. He just wants to turn his life around, and we both know he can’t do that working for your organization.

Selina: What do you know of my organization?

Britt: Only what I’ve read in the paper.

Selina: Brad looks to you for guidance.

Britt: We look to each other. We’re best friends.

Selina: Which means Brad will listen to you, and you will listen to me.

Britt: And why would I do that?

Selina: Because I knew your father.

Esme: If it turns out that I am pregnant, then everything I thought about how my life would be just goes out the window. And if I’m not, I could have a mob boss after me.

Spencer: I can protect you from Sonny.

Esme: But only if I’m pregnant.

Spencer: Regardless.

Esme: Spence, what are you saying?

Spencer: That you can stay here at Wyndemere, no matter what the test says.

Esme: Do you mean it?

Spencer: I promise.

Esme: [ Sighs ] Thank you, spence. Thank you.

Spencer: Now it’s time we find out the truth.

Nikolas: You sent Sonny after Esme? She’s just a kid.

Ava: That kid blew up my car. That kid thought nothing of using my dead daughter’s memory against me. That kid is a monster.

Nikolas: I know what she did, but —

Ava: But nothing! And I don’t want to hear about how she did it for Spencer. That girl is responsible for her choices and her actions, and now she’s responsible for humiliating Josslyn and Cameron and for trying to destroy Trina’s life.

Nikolas: Well, Trina will have a day in court. Sonny won’t give Esme the same courtesy.

Ava: Nikolas, I am telling you, it would never occur to Trina to make a sex tape of her friends, let alone send it to everybody at PCU. Whereas Esme has already proven she’s capable of anything.

Nikolas: If Esme is pregnant —

Ava: Oh, God! That is the oldest trick in the book. Please tell me you don’t believe that.

Nikolas: Esme isn’t claiming to be pregnant. She’s just late. What? Spencer and Esme are two college kids having sex. Are you saying there’s no possibility that Esme could be pregnant?

Ava: What I’m saying is, pregnant or not, I don’t want Esme in this house. And after what he’s done, I’m not so crazy about having Spencer here either, but he’s your son. Esme, on the other hand, has got to go. So, what’s it gonna be?

Nikolas: I’m sorry, Ava, but I’ve made my decision.

Spencer: Well?

Esme: It’s not an instant result. You have to wait five minutes.

Spencer: Where’s the test?

Esme: It’s on the sink. It has to stay flat. If you move it, the results could be compromised. It says so right here.

Spencer: Fine. We’ll wait together, and we will look at the test together.

Brad: I’m ready to prove that I can be trustworthy again. Or at all. And if orderly’s the only option, then orderly it is. Alright? I’ll clean up after patients, push wheelchairs, do whatever it’s gonna take.

Terry: Well, Mr. Cooper, I have to say, you’ve made a better impression than I expected.

Brad: [ Chuckles ] Let’s hear it for low expectations.

Terry: I would have to check with Dr. Jones, make sure his ex-husband working here wouldn’t upset him.

Brad: Please tell Lucas I would do my utmost to make sure our paths don’t cross.

Terry: Well, those are all the questions I have.

Brad: Great. So…?

Terry: We’ll let you know.

Brad: Thank you for your time.

Terry: I’ll walk you out.

Brad: Of the building?

Terry: Of my office.

Brad: Right. Thank you. Thanks again. [ Sighs ] That could have gone better.

Amy: You!

Brad: Hello, Amy.

Amy: What are you doing here?

Brad: I…

Amy: Answer the question, Brad. What are you doing lurking around Dr. Randolph’s office? What are you up to?

Brad: I had an in–

Amy: Security! Security!

Violet: Daddy, can we order some apps?

Finn: Yeah, we can…

Maxie: I’m just saying, it sounded like Chase was defending your honor.

Brook Lynn: Oh, good God, Maxie. You got to lay off the romance novels and start seeing someone for yourself. Look, now that Peter is finally dead, you can get back to your own life.

Maxie: Actually, about that…

Brook Lynn: Excuse me for interrupting, Ms. Quartermaine, but, uh, it would seem I owe you an apology.

Brook Lynn: An apology for what?

Gregory: I made some assumptions about you without having all the facts. Rest assured, my son has straightened me out. Please forgive my rudeness.

Brook Lynn: Of course. You were just looking out for your son, doing what any good parent would do.

Brook Lynn: Thank you. Just don’t let it happen again. I’m kidding. I’m kidding. [ Laughing ] I’m kidding.

Gregory: [ Chuckles ] I’m looking forward to getting to know you better.

Britt: Lots of people knew my father. He was quite literally infamous. I don’t remember him having any associations with the Wu’s.

Selina: So Faison took you into his confidence?

Britt: Not really. But there was a time we were closer.

Selina: I know. You traveled with Faison for several years before the authorities caught up with you in 2017.

Britt: I don’t particularly enjoy going down memory lane when it comes to my father. So what does this have to do with your mistaken belief that I’ll manipulate Brad for you?

Selina: Because I know what you and Cesar were doing in 2016.

Selina: You and your father were very busy in Lisbon back in 2016, weren’t you? Such a fascinating story. One the WSB and others closer to home would love to hear.

Britt: My father and I traveled all over. You’ll have to be more specific.

Selina: Mm. I don’t think I do.

Britt: You’re either bluffing or you’re fishing.

Selina: Maybe. But imagine for a moment that I’m doing neither. 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.

Amy: What are you after? Are you trying to steal records?

Brad: No. I had a job interview.

Amy: [ Scoffs ] Security!

Brad: [ Sighs ]

Terry: What is going on?

Amy: I caught Brad trying to sneak into your office.

Brad: I told you, I had an interview.

Amy: You’re a lying liar who lies. I don’t know who you bribed to get out of prison, but I’m sure it’s only a matter of time before you do something to get yourself thrown back in.

Terry: Nurse Driscoll. Lower your voice.

Amy: I don’t know why you’re mad at me. Brad’s the one —

Brad: Who is leaving. I’m leaving. Dr. Randolph, thank you for taking the time to meet with me. I sincerely hope we can work together again.

Amy: Fat chance!

Terry: Amy! That was entirely unprofessional.

Amy: [ Scoffs ] Brad deserves every word I said to him, and then some. Please, Dr. Randolph, you can’t let him work here.

Terry: I can if I want to.

Amy: Look, you’re new at the hospital.

Terry: I have been here for four years.

Amy: Four years?

[ Both chuckle ]

Amy: Time really does fly, doesn’t it? Even so —

Terry: Nurse Driscoll. Hiring staff is my decision, not yours.

Amy: But you missed Brad at his worst —

Terry: Nurse Driscoll. Please get back to work.

Ava: I see. So we’re not even gonna talk about this?

Nikolas: Are you actually interested in talking? Because it sounds to me like you’re making demands.

Ava: If Esme is pregnant, and that’s a really big if, Sonny won’t hurt her. She’ll be fine. And if she’s lying again? Sayonara, Esme. Set her adrift in the launch, and if she makes it to shore, let Sonny do his worst.

Nikolas: I can’t believe that I’m hearing this.

Ava: What about my position on this should even remotely surprise you?

Nikolas: That you, of all people, would be sending Esme to her fate with Sonny.

Ava: Sonny sees the situation a lot more clearly than you do. Now, understand this. Either Esme goes, or I go. Fine.

[ Timer beeps ]

Esme: Spence, if it’s negative, will you really let me stay here?

Spencer: I said that I would.

Esme: I’m so scared. Please tell me you’ll protect me from Sonny.

Spencer: I promise.

Esme: Thank you. Okay, then. Let’s find out if we’re having a baby.

Brook Lynn: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So, wait, wh-what were you going to tell me before?

Maxie: What?

Brook Lynn: Yeah, before Chase’s dad came over. You were gonna say —

Maxie: That sure was something, wasn’t it? The way Chase stood up to his dad for you?

Brook Lynn: Yeah, of course he did. Chase always goes to bat for his friends.

Maxie: No, wait. Are you sure that’s all that is?

Gregory: I’m really looking forward to our next tea party. I can’t wait to hear all about what you’ve been up to.

Violet: Me and daddy have been having a lot of sleepovers at aunt Elizabeth’s.

Gregory: Is that right?

Finn: Mm. Yeah, we’ve been, uh, staying at Elizabeth’s a few nights a week, uh, in — in case…

Gregory: More problems?

Finn: No, no. Not lately. I’m kind of hoping the excitement is over.

Elizabeth: Thanks for the talk.

Laura: Oh, anytime. You take care of yourself, now.

Elizabeth: I’ll do my best. Love you.

Laura: Love you, too.

Elizabeth: Night.

Laura: Night.

[ Door Closes ]

[ Thud ]

Elizabeth: What do you want?

Man in shadow: Don’t forget me.

Elizabeth: Who are you?

Elizabeth: Okay. [ Sighs ] Okay. [ Exhales deeply ] That was one hell of a dream.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Maxie: To awe!

Brook Lynn: You don’t owe me anything.

Curtis (to Selina): I have made my position clear.

Finn (to Elizabetha and the boys): We need to call in reinforcements.

Scott (to Ava): Is there trouble on Spoon Island?

Esme (to Spencer): I have a confession to make.

Laura: Telle me I’ve misheard you.

Nina (to Sasha): This is just the beginning.

Brando (to Sonny): If I can ever repay the favor, I’d be honored.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Sheila: You are not calling the police.

Steffy: You shot your son. We need to get help!

Sheila: I didn’t mean to. I didn’t even know he was here.

Steffy: Oh, you’re sick. You’re sick. You’re going to prison for the rest of your life.

Sheila: Put it down now!

Taylor: Oh, I love this photo.

Ridge: Well, that is our daughter in her element, isn’t it?

Taylor: Yeah, you know, steffy has accomplished so much in her young life. She’s excelled at everything she’s tried. She’s such a force.

Ridge: Reminds me of you.

Taylor: Aww. I can’t take all the credit. You know, steffy has always been so strong, so fearless, so full of life.

Bill: Always like seeing you on dad duty, being with the kids, fixing their toys.

Liam: Yeah. Well, the toy fixing kind of comes with the territory– where does this go?

Bill: And you love it.

Liam: I– I love the being a dad part, although between you and me, I’m pretty sure these, uh, these toys are optimized for frustrating parents. You wanna give it a go, grandpa?

Bill: Oh, hell no. No, no.

Liam: Ah, you sure?

Bill: I just came by to keep you company while hope’s out with her friends.

Liam: Oh, well, perhaps you’re better suited to help douglas with his magnetism and electricity science project–

Bill: No, no! I don’t want to do that either. You see, I hire people to deal with these things, thereby eliminating the frustration you’re going through right now.

Liam: Ah, duh!

Bill: Although I do love anything to do with electricity. It’s power.

Liam: Oh! All right, that was– that was good.

Bill: Actually, I did love helping will with his homework. Something I never got to do with you. I didn’t even know you existed.

Liam: Yeah, but… that’s not on you. We both know my mother wanted it that way. Besides, I think you more than made it up to me, given everything you’ve done for me.

Bill: I appreciate that, son. And when I look at you, the father that you are, I mean, you’ve been a rock for douglas, and beth and kelly. Those warrior princesses absolutely adore you.

Liam: Yeah, well, a lot of that’s luck, you know? And kids couldn’t have asked for better moms than hope and steffy.

Bill: You are a very committed dad.

Liam: Yeah, well, trying.

Bill: No, well, you were doing more than trying. Those kids are your priority, as they should be.

Liam: Hey, I mean, family is everything. You, in fact– you drilled that into my head, as well as wyatt’s, as well as will’s as– how is will doing?

Bill: Oh, he’s– he’s great. I mean, he is really thriving at boarding school. I miss the hell out of him, even though katie and I, you know, video call him all the time.

Liam: Yeah, I’m sure. Well, he won’t be gone forever, you know?

Bill: No, and I still have you and wyatt to run roughshod over. You see, a father’s work is never done.

Liam: No, no. It’s never done. Neither is a grandfather’s, by the way. And you still owe beth a bedtime story.

Bill: Yeah, I know, I was really bummed when I got here and she was already sleeping. I had my latest fairy tale all picked out, beauty

and the business tycoon.

Liam: Hey, it’s a classic.

Bill: Yeah.

Liam: Which one are you?

Bill: I could play both parts.

Liam: Touché, touché. Well, maybe you test it out on kelly, next time you see her.

Bill: Hey, um, speaking of my other granddaughter, I continue to be impressed with– with you playing such a huge part in her life, even though you don’t live with her.

Liam: Thank steffy for that. I mean, she’s just been so supportive of my relationship with my daughter. I’m just– I’m really lucky to have both kelly and steffy in my life.

Taylor: Do you remember when the kids were young, and steffy wanted to learn to play baseball and she was hounding thomas to teach her?

Ridge: I do remember. I also remember that he wasn’t too keen on it because he thought his friends were gonna make fun of him.

[ Taylor laughing ]

Thomas: Yeah. What, uh– what big brother wants his tomboy little sister hanging around him all the time? Especially when she can pitch better than him and all of his friends?

Ridge: But you did stand up for her. Told your friends that if she didn’t get to try out, you wouldn’t play.

Thomas: Which is something I remind her of every time I need a favor from her. Not that she ever needed my help. Steffy can…

[ Sighing ] Stand up for herself against anyone or anything.

Sheila: I said drop it!

Steffy: You’re crazy. Finn needs an ambulance.

Sheila: Steffy, do not make that call.

[ Gunshot ] Hi, I’m karen.

Liam: On the house.

Bill: Thank you. So you ever wonder who kelly will be when she grows up?

Liam: I can’t tell what you’re asking. You mean if she’ll be more like steffy or me?

Bill: Well, I mean, you know, two of you are a real study in– in contrasts. You know, you have this gigantic, loving heart.

Liam: Yeah. Well, so does steffy.

Bill: Mm-hmm. Yes, she does, but, uh… but she can be tough as nails when she has to be.

Liam: Hey! Oh! Well, I can– I can be tough as nails– what, are you saying I can’t be tough as nails? I can be tough as nails.

Bill: No, no, I’m not saying that at all. Look, what I’m saying–

[ Liam laughing ] Is that, uh, kelly is lucky to have parents who bring both strength and sensitivity to her life. I mean, you guys– you guys care about each other and– and support each other, even though you’re not married to one another.

Liam: No, that’s true. I mean, steffy and I are really good at that, supporting each other and it’s– you know what, it’s because we just don’t ever want kelly to feel stuck in the middle.

Bill: Yeah, well, that’s very admirable, though I imagine it’s also easier said than done.

Liam: Uh, it is easier said than done. Uh… mostly just because it’s– it’s all the history– history between steffy and me, between hope and me, between hope and steffy. But, um, but at the end of the day, you know, all three of us, the– the bottom line is the kids and their well-being.

Bill: You’re a hell of a dad, liam.

Liam: Gah! Well, you know, beth and kelly really make it easy, douglas, too.

Bill: Yeah. Well, uh, see if you’re still singing that tune when they hit their teenage years.

[ Liam laughing ]

Liam: You know, beth and douglas, not too worried about, kelly– gonna be a handful.

Bill: Just like her mom.

Liam: And I love them both. I’m always gonna love steffy.

Ridge: Well, you’re absolutely right. Your sister never backs down.

Taylor: Yeah but then again, her namesake never did either.

Thomas: Yeah, well, there’s a lot of grandma in steff, that’s for sure.

Taylor: You know, our daughter wouldn’t be who she is without that fearlessness.

Ridge: Fearlessness, yes, fearlessness is great. Doesn’t stop life from smacking you around, if it chooses to. So I’m glad she has finn in her corner.

[ Sheila panting ]

Sheila: Steffy. Steffy, can you hear me?

[ Gloves tugging ]

[ Sobbing ]

[ Gasping ]

You never know

what opportunities

Bill: I– I’m fully cognizant of how much all of this means to you, hope, and your family with her, being a dad to beth, kelly and douglas.

Liam: Okay, why do I– i feel like there’s a “but” coming?

Bill: No “but,” it’s just that, um, well, I– I’m also aware of– of how much your life with steffy meant to you and– and how special it was, uh, because of how special steffy is. And oh, I think that maybe she brought some things out in you that– that hope can’T.

Liam: Okay, I’m not exactly sure where you’re going with this, but if it’s going to end in some criticism of hope–

Bill: No, no, no, no, no criticism of– of hope. Uh, I’ve nothing against hope. I have a lot of respect for her. She– she’s a wonderful woman who clearly makes you happy.

Liam: Yeah, she does.

Bill: But she’s not steffy, and your marriage to hope is not what your marriage to steffy was.

Liam: Just say it. What’s– what is your point?

Bill: I have no idea. I– in fact, I don’t even think there’s really a, you know, point. It’s just– it’s an observation.

Liam: Yeah, well– I mean, it– it’s a pretty trivial observation that hope and steffy are, in fact, two different people.

Bill: Exactly. Ah, so I guess there was a point, after all, and you just made it, because you’re so smart. Even though you’re married to hope, you’ve just admitted that you will always love steffy.

Liam: Yeah, dad, of course I admit that. Steffy and I share so much. We share a child, we share history. I mean, she’s– she’s changed my life in incredible, profound ways. And just because, you know, just because we’re not together anymore doesn’t mean that I can even imagine my world without steffy in it.

[ Ridge sighing ]

Ridge: Finn has brought so much joy to steffy’s life, right?

Taylor: Yes, I get to see it every single day. They are– they’re just there for each other. They support each other. They bring out the best in one another.

Ridge: Yeah, no, it’s true.

Taylor: Yeah.

Ridge: And why are we dealing with sheila? Why– why does she have to be in the picture at all? She’s already caused so many problems for finn and steffy. I don’t want to cause any more.

[ Metal clinking ]

[ Sheila panting ]

[ Sobbing ]

[ Whimpering and groaning ]

[ Wailing ]

Deacon: Doing it right now, paul. Chill out.

[ Sighing] Living the life, aren’t you, deacon?

[ Metal creaking ]

[ Bottles rattling ] Oh, my god, finn! And steffy! Every year we try

Thomas: You know, I don’t think we should spend any more time talking about sheila.

Ridge: You think I wanna talk about her? I wish I didn’t have to. I wish she was out of our lives forever.

Taylor: Well, I don’t know if that’s gonna happen because her son, and her grandson, live in los angeles. But, you know, I– I do hope that she has changed, and I hope that she’s not going to cause trouble for–

Ridge: Wait, you hope so? She’s already caused trouble. Why do you say these things? I know you’re a psychiatrist and you see the best in everybody, but this is, it’s–

Taylor: Okay, okay, and I know that that’s annoying. I get it. I understand. I want to see the best in people. So sue me. I want people to be happy. And– but– but I also know that there are people in this world that are so deeply wounded that even therapy can’t help them.

Thomas: Right, and you don’t see sheila carter as one of those?

Taylor: Well, I mean, sheila has never been my patient, and… maybe she should have been. What I do know is it feels like sheila just wants to be my friend.

Ridge: Oh, okay, no, that’s good. Maybe she does. She just needs a friend. What do you– what are you talking about? Do you hear yourself? How do you even say these things after what she’s done to your family? What she’s done to us? Wherever that woman goes, wherever sheila shows up, tragedy follows.

[ Gunshot ringing ]

Sheila: Oh, finn. My son. My– my sweet, beautiful son. What have I done? What have I done? [ Sobbing ]

Deacon: Oh, my god, no. No, no, no. Finn. And steffy! Oh!

[ Phone dialing ]

Deacon: Yeah, yeah, there’s been a– a shooting, uh, two victims, in the alley behind il giardino. Uh, a man and a woman. Finn– uh, john finnegan, and steffy forrester. I– I don’t know what happened. I can’t tell, they’re not moving. Just get here, damn it! What happened?

Gabi: What are you doing here?

Jake: Grabbing the last of my things. Thought you’d still be at work.

Gabi: I left earlY. I wasn’t feeling well.

Jake: Sorry to hear that. See you around. But hopefully never.

Gabi: Jake, wait, hold on. Are we really gonna end things like this?

Nicole: HI, rafe, it’s me. I was hoping to catch you. Listen, I ran into abe, and he’s having a really rough time. I was hoping maybe we could invite him to dinner. Just give me a call when you get a chancE. Bye. I love you.

Ava: I love you, too. Oh. You weren’t talking to me?

Paulina: So, if the dealer who shot eli doesn’t use drugs, how’d he od?

Rafe: That’s the million-dollar question.

Tr: He just shot a cop. Maybe he was looking for a quick exit.

Rafe: Well, he had a gun. That’d be a bit quicker.

Tr: But a lot less enjoyable.

Rafe: Hmm. Well, lani seems to think it was an accidental overdose, which seems unlikely to me, considering he had no priors.

Tr: Well, just ’cause he didn’t have any priors doesn’t mean he wasn’t using, right? I mean, maybe he thought a hit would calm him dowN.

Rafe: Hmm, maybe.

Paulina: But you don’t buy it.

Rafe: Well, something just doesn’t sit right with me.

Tr: Well, we know he od’D. Does it really matter why? That animal shot my son-in-law! Unless you’re suggesting that he didn’T.

[Monitor beeping]

Lani: Thank you for the flowers, chanel. They’re-they’re really beautiful.

Chanel: I know elI can’t really enjoy them right now, but I figured it brightens up the room.

Lani: Definitely.

Chanel: Mom says you’ve been here, like, 24/7.

LanI: As much as I can be.

Chanel: Yeah, so how– can I help? You need doughnut delivery? Help with the kids? Anything?

LanI: Thank you, but we got it covereD. Your, um–paulina has been all over iT. Cleaning my apartment too. She called earlier and said that she was organizing my spice rack.

[Both chuckle] Alphabetically.

Chanel: Sounds like her.

Lani: Everyone has been really supportive. Even tr came to see eli.

Chanel: Your bio dad. Really? Is that–is that something you wanted?

Lani: I mean, I will take all the support I can right now.

Chanel: Yeah, it’s just, you know, just a few weeks ago, everyone was acting like that guy was the devil himself.

Lani: Yeah.

Allie: Did you hear what i said? Turn around and face me, you son of a bitch.

Johnny: I’m busy.

Allie: Well, I need to talk to you, johnny. What’s the problem? Can’t look me in the eye?

Johnny: Go away!

Allie: Fine, if you don’t want to turn around, I’ll make you!

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

[Soft orchestration]

Rafe: No, I don’t mean to suggest that someone besides frank shot eli.

Tr: What are you suggesting?

Rafe: I’m just saying that something doesn’t feel right, that’s all.

Paulina: Oh, I can see how determined you are. Eli is lucky to have you on the case.

Rafe: Well, eli’s been a good friend to me. And I owe it to him to find out the whole story. Why he was in the park, and why he got shot.

Paulina: Well, I have faith that you will turn over every stone to uncover the truth.

LanI: Ray–tr–he swears he’s a changed man.

Chanel: And you believe him?

Lani: I mean, i was skeptical at first, but, i mean, paulina has these awful stories from the past, but he’s gone through treatment and therapy, and even paulina admits that he’s a changed maN.

Chanel: Yeah, when I first met him, I never would have guessed that that was the guy that mama’s been running from for half of her life. He almost seems nice. He even did allie and me a huge favoR.

Lani: What did he do?

Chanel: He agreed to let allie and I out of our contracts as actors in johnny’s movie.

Lani: That would have been really awkward, if not a nightmare.

Chanel: There’s no way I could work with johnny now. I can’t even believe I thought he ever loved me.

Johnny: What is so damn important that we have to talk about it right now?

Allie: You told tripp that chanel and I are together.

Johnny: Yeah, so?

Allie: Why would you do that?

Johnny: I didn’t realize it was a secret–you guys were all over each other in the middle of the square.

Allie: It’s not that it’s a secret, johnny, but I wanted to tell tripp myself.

Johnny: I guess I didn’t realize you hadn’t yet.

Allie: Do not act innocenT. You knew that I hadn’t told him I slept with chanel when I accepted his proposal.

Johnny: Oh. So now it’s my fault that you cheated on him.

Allie: No, no, I own that! But lately, it is like you are enjoying watching my life fall apart. Like you are doing everything possible to make sure that happens. Why?

Gabi: Jake, i am so sorry. So, so sorry for how I treated you. I truly believed that you betrayed me firsT.

Jake: But you didn’t think to ask me about it, give me the benefit of the doubt?

GabI: Doubt–what are you talking about? I heard you talking with maggie stabbing me in the back.

Jake: Except it wasn’t me.

Gabi: How was I supposed to know that? The devil using belle to morph into you? It’s not exactly my bingo card.

Jake: It’s not about that, gabi, it’s about how you handled it, right? And instead of asking me about it, you lied. You lied, and you plotted with johnnY. And you singlehandedly destroyed our relationship, my career, my future.

Gabi: I regret all of that. I’ll figure out a way to fix this.

Jake: There’s no fixing iT. Because for us to fall apart as quickly as we did, it made me realize one thing, and that’s that we had a fundamental problem between us from the very beginning, and I think I know what it was.

Gabi: Jake, what are you talking about?

Jake: StefaN. You always wanted me to be stefan, but guess what? I’m not, and I never will be.

Gabi: What? I never wanted you to be him.

Jake: Face it, gabi. All I’ll ever be to you is a pale imitation of my twin brother.

GabI: That is not true.

Jake: Really? Then why is it that you won’t take that necklace off, huh? The necklace with his ring on it.

Gabi: ‘Cause I li–I like it, and it’s honoring his memory.

Jake: Right. Well, whatever the reason is, gabi, we’re broken. And there’s no fixing us.

Gabi: Jake, wait, where are you staying?

Jake: My old place over the garagE. Because it’s available, it’s cheap, and it’s the only thing I can afford, thanks to you.

Gabi: Jake–

Jake: So long, gabi.

Ava: So already at the “i love you” stage, huh? Well, that didn’t take long. But of course, you’ve been hiding your feelings for a long time, right?

Nicole: I’m sorry, ava, I am.

Ava: No, you’re not.

Nicole: Well, I’m about as sorry as you are for setting up rafe for a crime he didn’t commit.

Ava: Clever.

Nicole: It’s too bad your revenge plot wasn’t clever enough. And despite all your efforts, rafe was acquitted on all charges.

Ava: Oh, good for him. Yeah, yeah.

Nicole: So what are you gonna do with all this pent-up anger?

Ava: Well, guess we’re just gonna have to wait and find ouT.

Nicole: Oh, come on. Ava, will you stop it already? If you’re gonna come at me, then come at me.

Ava: You really mean that?

Nicole: I do–just have the guts to do it to my face.

Ava: Okay.

Nicole: Ow!

Ava: That looked like it stung. I’d apologize, but you did tell me to bring it to your face.

Nicole: Yeah, uh-huh, I did.

Ava: You regretting that now?

Nicole: No, actuallY. I’m glad the gloves are coming off, because now I won’t regret doing this.

Jake: Whoa, whoa, whoA. Ladies, ladies, ladies. What are you doing? What are you doing, huh? Hey. Come oN.

Paulina: Lani said eli wasn’t even working on this case when he got shot.

Rafe: That’s right. You know, in fact, mr. Coates, I just spoke with your ex-girlfriend beth about that very question.

Tr: Really? Why?

Rafe: Well, because eli was interviewing her right before the shooting, so you know, i thought perhaps she could provide some insight as to why he suddenly left the station and went to the park.

Tr: Did she know anything?

Rafe: No, unfortunately. All he said was that he had to take care of something.

Tr: That’s too bad.

Rafe: Yeah, it is. But I’ll keep on digging.

Paulina: Well, we don’t want to keep you if you have work to do.

Rafe: Thank you, yeah, I actually do have to get back to the station.

Paulina: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Well, thank you–thank you for the update, commissioner.

Rafe: Yeah–rafE.

Paulina: Thank you, rafe.

Rafe: Yeah.

Tr: Nice meeting you.

Rafe: Yeah, you too. You know, actually, lani says that you have changed, and, well, for her sake, I hope she’s right.

Lani: So you’re still hurting over johnny?

Chanel: I don’t have feelings for him anymore. I just, I can’t get over how wrong I was about him. Allie’s pretty much done with him too.

Lani: And what happened with tripp? He seemed upset when you came in.

Chanel: Yeah. Yeah, he’s pretty angry with me.

Lani: Why? What happened?

Chanel: Well, turns out that johnny took it upon himself to tell tripp that allie and I are a couple now.

Lani: Wait, what?

Johnny: Look, call me crazy, but I thought tripp had a right to know that you guys were doing the down and dirty behind his back. You know, bro code.

Allie: Oh, bro code? I’m your sister, johnny.

Johnny: Yeah. And when you do bad stuff, I’m gonna call you out.

Allie: I agree that tripp had a right to know. But I was going to break it to him gently.

Johnny: Oh yeah? When?

Allie: This is not your business.

Johnny: Actually, it is, because you see, chanel is still my wife, and she’s cheating on me with my twin sister.

Allie: Your marriage is over. You threw it away.

Johnny: Still, you can imagine how that makes me look.

Allie: Oh, is it humiliating for you? Good. I mean, after the way you humiliated chanel by dumping her in front of her entire family, you don’t get to play the victim.

Johnny: Look, we’ve already talked about this, right? You’re the one who’s always saying I’m a jerk, i’m a player. You even warned chanel about me.

Allie: Yeah, and she should have listened.

Johnny: Well, you got what you want–her. So what do you want from me?

Allie: I want to know what happened to the brother that I’ve loved my whole life.

[Knock at door]

Gabi: Oh, sonny.

Sonny: Hey.

Gabi: Thank you, uh, for stopping bY. Your text came in right when I needed it.

Sonny: Are you okay?

GabI: I will be. Come on in. You said you, uh, you had something from ari.

Sonny: Oh, right, yeah. She was really upset she couldn’t give this to you before she went back to phoenix.

Gabi: Oh, are you kidding me? Oh, this is so sweet, and it’s– it’s beautiful.

Sonny: Gabi, gabi, hey. It’s okay, okay? It’s just a bracelet. I know you miss her. But ari and will will be back.

GabI: It’s not just that. It’s my whole life. It’s jake.

Jake: Hey, hey, come on, ladies. What are you–what are you trying to do, kill each other?

Both: Yes!

Jake: Oh, great.

Ava: You told me I could hit yoU.

Jake: You did?

Nicole: Not exactly.

Ava: Yeah.

Jake: What, did you say she could hit you back?

Ava: Of course not. You already cheated with my boyfriend. You don’t get to hit me back.

Nicole: I tried to be your frienD.

Ava: Oh, nice job.

Nicole: Well, now it’s every woman for herselF. And if you think you can get between me and rafe, think again.

Ava: In the old days, I would have–

Jake: Uh-uh–don’t say it. Don’t even think it.

Ava: Yeah? Too late.

Jake: What? So what’s going on? Her and rafe?

Ava: Yeah. Yeah, they slept together months ago and been lying to me this whole time.

Jake: How’d you find out?

Ava: Let’s just say I figured it out, all right? And finally, rafe had the decency to break up with me.

Jake: Wow. Now, what, they’re, like, a real couple?

Ava: Now they’re in love.

Jake: Woof. SorrY.

Ava: Yeah, well, your girlfriend’s gonna be over the moon. Hey, her brother finally got rid of me.

Jake: Girlfriend. Yeah, gabi and I broke up.

Ava: Really? What happened?

Jake: You know, your cheek looks like it’s kind of bruised.

Ava: Is this your way of avoiding the subject?

Jake: It’s my way of saying how about we go inside and find you some ice, maybe sit down, swap war stories over a drink?

Ava: Yeah. Could definitely use a drink.

LanI: You and allie have been seeing each other.

Chanel: Mm-hmm.

LanI: Since when, chanel?

Chanel: It’s pretty new.

Lani: [Stammers] Sorry I seem so surpriseD. I just, I’ve–I’ve always thought she was–

Chanel: Straight?

Lani: Yes.

Chanel: Well, she actually identifies as bi. And who knows, maybe I am too. I’ve never really done the whole label thinG.

LanI: Okay, so, how did it happen? I mean, not how did– how did it happen, you know–

Chanel: I know what you mean.

LanI: Okay.

[Chuckles]

Chanel: Well, i think there’s-there’s always been feelings, but, you know, allie was with tripp, and i was with johnnY. But, you know, now that we’re both single, we figured we’d explore those feelings and see what happens.

LanI: Okay. How’s it going?

Chanel: So far, so good.

Lani: GooD. That’s really good. But you’re totally over johnny.

Chanel: I’m still, you know, hurt by what he did. I really did love hiM. But he’s just not the guy I thought I married.

Johnny: According to you, wasn’t I always just an insensitive jerk?

Allie: No, you were a player. I mean, I remember times where you were juggling three girls, and you would have sydney lie for you. But you weren’t cruel. I mean, I always thought that there was a heart underneath there.

Johnny: And you don’t think I have a heart now?

Allie: I just want to know why you’re acting like such a jerk. Okay, yeah, you and i used to bicker.

Johnny: Well, that’s one word for it. I think I still have a bald spot on my head from where you took out a fistful of haiR.

Allie: Okay, yeah, we fought, a lot, but through it all, I always felt like there was this connection. I mean, I swear, sometimes I felt like I could read your mind. And now I-I don’t feel that connection anymore. It’s like it’s gone.

Johnny: I’m sorry to hear you say that.

Allie: Okay, no, don’t just blow me off! Who are you? Where is the brother that I love?

Real johnny: I’m here, allie! I’m right here, but he won’t let me out!

Tr: You ask me, that cop was wasting his time. Like you said, they already have their man. Who cares why that loser od’d?

Paulina: I think everyone just wants to know for sure what happened to eli.

Tr: Huh.

[Phone beeps]

Tr: Damn.

Paulina: What-what is it?

Tr: Text from one of my producers. Crisis with the moviE. Look, I gotta go put out a fire, but I hate leaving you alone here with the kids.

Paulina: Well, they’re asleep. I think I can handle it.

Tr: Well, if you do need to call, you can call me anytime. I mean it.

Paulina: I know. I know you’re a busy man.

Tr: They’re our grandchildren. I never got to be with lani growing up. But I do want to be there for them. Besides, I like spending time with them. And with you.

Paulina: What are you doing?

Tr: I’m sorry, I, um, I was gonna give you a goodbye hug, but I would never touch you without your permission.

Paulina: You know I’m a hugger.

[Tense music]

Rafe: Thanks, abe. I will let you know what I find out. We’ll be in toucH.

Nicole: Hey.

Rafe: Hey, there.

Nicole: Hi.

Nicole: Oh, mm.

Rafe: What’s wrong?

Nicole: Oh, I’m just a bit sore on this side of my face.

Rafe: What happened?

Nicole: I had a little run-in with ava.

Ava: So you want to tell me what happened with you and gabi?

Jake: How much time you got?

Ava: Come on. It can’t be that complicated.

Jake: Well, the devil impersonated me so that gabi would think I betrayed her.

Ava: Are you serious?

GabI: Oh yeah. Add on top of that that I think she’s still in love with my dead twin brother.

Ava: Okay. Pretty complicated.

Jake: Yeah, but you know what’s simple? We’re done, me and gabi. That’s it. Just picked up the last of my stuff from her house.

Ava: So rafe hasn’t changed the locks yet, huh?

Jake: Ah, not yet.

Ava: You know, I know that I’m probably supposed to have a sad face and tell you how sorry I am, but I would much rather buy you a glass of champagne and congratulate you for finally getting away from that snake.

Gabi: Jake thinks I only fell in love with him because he reminded me of stefan.

Sonny: Yeah, but that’s– that’s not true, is it?

Gabi: No, of course not. I do understand why he didn’t believe me. When I first met him, I really did think it was stefan, and I desperately wanted him to bE.

Sonny: And that’s very understandablE. You thought your husband was back from the dead.

GabI: Yeah, and then, when i found out that he wasn’t, I really did fall in love with jake for who he really waS. Well, at least I thought i did.

Sonny: You’re second-guessing yourself.

GabI: Jake is right about one thing: The minute I thought he betrayed me, I turned on him so fasT. Maybe I didn’t fall in love with him for who he really was. Maybe-maybe I was just waiting for him to let me down.

Allie: Is something wrong?

Real johnny: Allie, can you hear me? I’m in here! It’s me!

Allie: Johnny, why are you acting like this? I mean, why in god’s name did you marry chanel if you didn’t love her?

Real johnny: I did love her!

Johnny: Because I knew it would get to you.

Allie: So you’re saying that you married chanel just to hurt mE.

Johnny: I’m just doing what I’ve always done. Like when I used to take your toys, you’d scream your head off.

Allie: Okay, you were two years old. You are a grown man now, and this is so not normaL. I mean, I can’t believe that you’re talking like thiS.

Real johnny: Because it’s not me, allie! Can’t you see?

Allie: Wait a minutE. I know what’s going on herE.

Ava: Well, since it is pretty sad that you were frozen out of your family’s company, beer’s on me.

Jake: Thanks, but you should probably keep the ice on your face so that it doesn’t swell up. Come on, tough guy.

Ava: Thanks. So where you going with that?

Jake: Oh, staying at my old place over the garage since ben and ciara moved out. What about you? Where are you staying?

Ava: Meh, i’ve just been lying low.

Jake: That’s right, I heard something about you being wanted by police.

Ava: Okay, they got nothing on me. But I was staying at a motel in brookville. I only came out when I heard that rafe was let out of jail.

Jake: Oh. So you’re gonna get back together?

Ava: No. No, me and rafe, we’re through. In fact, he is convinced that I set him up on those charges because he cheated on me.

Jake: Did you? Hmm?

Rafe: Ava hit you?

Nicole: Yeah.

Rafe: You’re here to press charges.

Nicole: No. No, I’m here to see you.

Rafe: Are you sure?

Nicole: Look, i definitely dared her to push me, and I went at her just as hard.

Rafe: You–nicole, you– oh, my god, you can’t do that, okay?

Nicole: I know, okay, I know! I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I should have controlled myself, but it’s just driving me crazy not knowing what ava’s gonna do to punish us next.

Rafe: Okay. Listen to me, okay? Next time you see her, call me, okay?

Nicole: I did. I did call you earlier. I left a message.

Rafe: Oh shoot, that’s right. I’m sorry, I turned my phone off and I meant to call you. I just, I was working on eli’s casE.

Nicole: I thought you knew who shot eli.

Rafe: Well, we do. There are just, uh, some unanswered questions.

LanI: I really hope you and allie will be happy together.

Chanel: Thanks, sis.

[Phone beeps]

Lani: Oh, I didn’t even realize how late it is. Eli is scheduled for some tests. I’m sure the nurse will be in here kicking us out any minute.

Chanel: Well, what about you? Do you need anything?

LanI: No, i’m good. I’m gonna duck out of here and go see the kids while I have a chancE.

Chanel: Kiss them for me, will you?

LanI: Of course. And thank you for the flowers.

Chanel: YeaH. And lani, I am so sorry that you’re going through this.

Lani: Everyone keeps saying that. But the only person who needs to be sorry is the criminal who shot my husband in cold blood.

Beth: I got your message. What’s going on?

Tr: I heard you paid a visit to the police commissioner.

Beth: Yeah, he needed me to come and sign my statement.

Tr: Then you stuck to our deal?

Beth: I didn’t tell him that you were a drug user or about the abuse.

Tr: Well, that I know. Because the commissioner sure as hell would have mentioned it if you had. But I need to make sure that you’re gonna continue to keep your mouth shut. He’s asking a lot of questions about elI grant’s shooting.

Beth: What do you care? You said you had nothing to do with that, right?

Tr: You know you can’t trust the police. I need to know I can count on you. Or things could get dicey– for both of us.

Johnny: What do you mean you know what’s really going on?

Allie: You’re saying all these horrible things, but underneath it all, it’s like–it’s like I can still feel the real you.

Real johnny: Yes, allie. Come oN. You can sense me. I know you can. Just like always.

Allie: You’re trying to push me away because there’s something going on, and you don’t want me to know.

Real johnny: You’re right. He doesn’t want you to know I’m here–the real mE. Let me out, you bastard!

Allie: Johnny, what is going on? Are you all right?

Jake: So if I were to look up the names of perps who implicated rafe, would i recognize them from back in the day, or…?

Ava: Of course noT. You know no one uses their real names.

Jake: Right.

Ava: Anyway, I didn’t say it was me who set up rafe.

Jake: Didn’t say that you didn’T.

Ava: Look, if I were to tell you that it was me, that’d make you an accessory after the fact. I’d never do that to you.

Jake: Hmm! All heart, this one. Look at yoU.

Ava: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Anyway, I know how hard you’ve been working to put your life of crime behind you.

Jake: Just like you.

Ava: Exactly.

Jake: Well, here’s to us, huh? Two former business associates trying to walk the straight and narrow.

Ava: Ah. The straight and narrow.

Nicole: So before he went to the park, eli had checked up on lani’s father, who, apparently, back in the day, was a piece of garbage.

Rafe: Yeah, but tr, he claims to have turned his life around, a claim actually supported by his most recent ex, and paulina and lani think it might be true.

Nicole: Well, good on him, if it sticks. But like i was telling abe earlier, in my experience, it is rare that guys like that change their stripes.

Rafe: Yeah.

Beth: Why do I feel like you’re threatening me?

Tr: I’m just trying to point out the opportunity costs. You still want to be in my movie, right?

Beth: Yes, of course I do. And I had a really great meeting with the directoR.

Tr: What’d you tell dimera about me?

Beth: I stuck to the story. But he was asking a lot of questions about how I got hired.

Tr: What kind of questions?

Beth: Well, apparently, mr. Dimera gets final say on all casting. He wanted to know why you hired me without his input.

Tr: And what’d you say?

Beth: I didn’t sleep with tr. I swear. All I did was agree to keep quiet about his past.

Johnny: What past?

Beth: He assumed I traded sexual favors to get the role. I didn’t correct his assumptions.

Tr: I hope you’re telling the trutH. Because if paulina finds out that I’m not as reformed as I said, this whole film could go to hell.

Allie: Johnny, are you all right?

Johnny: I’m fine.

Real johnny: I’m not fine. Allie! Help me!

Allie: Okay, what’s wrong?

Johnny: Will you shut up?

Allie: No, I will not shut up! I’m trying to help you!

Johnny: I wasn’t talking to you!

Allie: Well, then, who the hell are you talking to?

Sonny: Hey, your cheeks are kind of flusheD. Are you feeling okay?

Gabi: I’ve been betteR.

Sonny: You’re kind of warm. Okay, how about you get in the bed? I’ll make you some tea.

Gabi: Thank you. You’re the best. I don’t think, uh, tea’s gonna do the trick.

Sonny: Look, I’ve seen you rally over and over agaiN. Okay, you will get over jake.

GabI: It’s not just jake. You know, kate–kate told me that I am doomed to be alone. She pointed out that I have ousted every single person at dimera that cares for me, and she’s not wrong, sonny.

Sonny: [Laughs] Okay, well, rule number one: Never listen to kate dimerA.

GabI: I know, I knoW.

Sonny: And rule number two: You are not alone. Okay, you have ari. You have will. You’ve got your brother. And you have me.

Jake: So where to now? Back to brookville? Philly, what?

Ava: Ah, no, no, no. I’m staying here because my son is here, so I’ll be in salem.

Jake: You gonna get a place of your own?

Ava: I’m not really sure yet. Can’t really have tripp see me digging into my inheritance to pay the renT.

Jake: Could probably stay with him for a while, yeah?

Ava: I don’t think that’ll be such a good idea since he lives with his father and kayla.

Jake: Ah. Well, look, it’s not much, but, uh, you’re welcome to stay at my place, you know, just while you’re figuring things out.

Ava: Yeah, you don’t really mean that.

Jake: No, no, seriously. You’d probably be doing me a favor, as long as you help out with rent or, at minimum, keep the fridge stocked with beer at all times.

Ava: And you know, I’m a pretty good cook too, so.

Jake: Is that a yes?

Ava: I don’t really have many other options, so, um. You sure?

Jake: Slainte.

Ava: Salud.

Nicole: Rafe, I am sure you’re gonna figure out the whole story of eli’s shooting.

Rafe: I just wish I knew why he left that day. And how he ended up facing the drug dealer that shot hiM.

Nicole: And you can’t find any witnesses?

Rafe: No. Not so far. I mean, at this point, eli’s the only one who knows what really happened.

Tr: I’m a little over-leveraged right now. I had to move some money around to cover some debts.

Beth: What does paulina have to do with that? Unless–are you trying to get back with your ex because she’s rich? Oh, is that how you’re gonna finance the film?

Tr: Let’s just say it’s in your best interest to keep your mouth shut. Paulina needs to believe that I am a totally changed man.

Beth: Ah, so you can get your hands on her moneY.

Paulina: Oh. Lani, sweetheart. How are you doing?

LanI: I’m hanging in there. I hope the kids behaved for you.

Paulina: Toddlers don’t behave; they just are. You know, like hurricanes.

Lani: Well, that doesn’t sound good.

Paulina: I love them to death, you know thaT. They just ran around here, tired themselves out, and now they’re sleeping like angels.

Lani: Mm, did dad leave?

Paulina: You mean abe?

LanI: Of course I mean abe.

Paulina: RighT. It’s just that, uh, ray was here when he arrived.

Lani: And how did dad react?

Paulina: Not well. He was upset. He didn’t stay long.

Lani: He’s convinced that ray is bad news.

Paulina: Yeah, I can understand that. But you know, it really does seem like the man has changed. Actually, he reminds me of the sweet guy I knew all those years ago, before the drugs, you know, made him angry and abusive. Oh, but he was so good with your babies. You should have seen him. Carver even fell asleep in his arms.

Lani: It was really nice of him to come by and help out.

Paulina: Mm-hmm. I thought so. And he couldn’t have been more of a gentleman.

[Line trilling]

Chanel: God, horton, where are you?

Allie: Johnny, what is going on?

Johnny: [Stammers] It’s nothing, okay? I’m fine. Just-just-just get out of here! Leave me alone!

Real johnny: Help me, allie. Please. I know you can feel me.

Allie: Okay, johnny, what is happening to you? Okay, talk to me, please. I want to help you, I love you.

Johnny: Leave me alone!

Allie: Are you sick? Okay, I’m gonna take you to the hospital.

Demon johnny: I said leave me alone!

Interview with Chicago Med Actors

Posted on April 5, 2022March 16, 2023 by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

actors Oliver Platt and Marlyne Barrett, and executive producers Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider of "Chicago Med" on NBC

Interview with actors Oliver Platt and Marlyne Barrett, and executive producers Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider of “Chicago Med” on NBC Suzanne 3/30

This was a really enjoyable part of an NBC virtual press day panel. I love Oliver Platt. I remember first seeing him in “The Three Musketeers,” (1993), where he played Porthos. He was in many great movies and TV series. This show has an amazing cast.

MORE INFO:

Interview with actors Oliver Platt and Marlyne Barrett, and executive producers Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider of "Chicago Med" on NBC

From Emmy Award-winning executive producer Dick Wolf (the “Law & Order,” “Chicago” and “FBI” brands), “Chicago Med” is an emotional thrill ride through the day-to-day chaos of the city’s newest state-of-the-art trauma center and into the lives of the courageous doctors, nurses and staff who hold it all together.

Dr. Will Halstead (Nick Gehlfuss) finds his career as an emergency medicine physician in jeopardy, following his cover-up involving a serious ethics violation. Dr. Daniel Charles (Oliver Platt) remains the Sherlock Holmes of psychiatry. Sharon Goodwin (S. Epatha Merkerson), the venerable head of the city’s largest hospital, is under intense fiscal scrutiny to preserve the bottom line while continuing to ensure that all patients receive nothing short of quality care and compassion. Dr. Ethan Choi (Brian Tee), a former Navy flight surgeon and chief of the E.D., begins the season in recovery mode after being shot by a former patient. Now it’s up to the blunt but talented Dr. Dean Archer (Steven Weber) to show what he’s made of as interim chief at the helm of Chicago’s trusted and busiest ER. Maggie Lockwood (Marlyne Barrett), the charge nurse and eyes, ears and brain of the ER, is skilled and confident but finds herself dealing with profound family issues of her own. Ace surgeon Dr. Crockett Marcel (Dominic Rains), the New Orleans-raised surgeon with a breezy manner, has finally started to let his guard down, earning the respect of his colleagues. And now two new doctors have joined the E.D. family. Dr. Stevie Hammer (Kristen Hager) is a brilliant, scrappy emergency medicine doctor with a surprising past and Dr. Dylan Scott (Guy Lockard) is an ex-cop who’s doing a dual residency in emergency medicine and pediatrics.

Together they will confront Chicago’s most critical medical cases and challenging ethical dilemmas with courage, compassion and state-of-the-art treatment. Inspired by ripped-from-the-headlines cases, “Chicago Med” will weave cutting-edge medicine with the personal drama that comes with working in such a high-intensity environment. Through it all, familiar faces from “Chicago Fire” and “Chicago P.D” will intertwine with Chicago’s finest medical heroes.

Dick Wolf, Diane Frolov, Andrew Schneider, Stephen Hootstein, Derek Haas, Arthur Forney, Matt Olmstead, Michael Brandt and Peter Jankowski are executive producers.

“Chicago Med” is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, in association with Wolf Entertainment.

Platt was featured in the HBO documentary “Love, Marilyn” and the telepic “Bessie,” where he plays writer and artistic photographer Carl Van Vechten. He also co-starred in Showtime’s “The Big C,” starring Laura Linney. Previously, he played George Steinbrenner on the ESPN miniseries “The Bronx is Burning,” opposite John Turturro.

Interview with Laurence Leboeuf

Posted on April 5, 2022March 18, 2023 by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

Laurence Leboeuf of "Transplant" on NBC from her film "Mirror Lake"

Interview with Laurence Leboeuf of “Transplant” on NBC by Suzanne 3/29/22

This was a very fun interview! We did it on Zoom. Unfortunately, the video recording didn’t come out. I hope you can enjoy it, anyway. She’s a wonderful actress, and I really love the show.

1. Mags struggles a bit for a while, with her mentor in the coma. Was that a challenge to play, or fun?

All of the above. It’s always a challenge to bring this character to life because she’s so complicated. Having to deal with not having her mentor around is very difficult for her, and she has to learn how to cope. It’s like her lighthouse has drowned.

2. Then everyone has to contend with the obnoxious new doctor who takes Bishop’s place for awhile, Mark. How was it, welcoming a new actor into the dynamic of the show?

Oh, well, Gord (the actor who plays Mark) is amazing. We had a lot of fun and he fit right in with the rest of us. We were surprised at how well. Even though we hate the character, we liked him as a person. He puts Mags through a lot and makes her doubt herself.

3. Then Mags and Bashir almost kiss and have some awkward moments. When did you know that Mags and Bashir might become a “thing?”

From the beginning, Mags has found him attractive because he’s so smart and has his own unique way of doing things.

4. Without giving us any spoilers, what other challenges does Mags have this season?

Mags has some major changes. She gets interested in cardiology because of what happens with a patient, and it’s really a big deal for her.

5. Now that you’ve been playing her for two seasons, is there anything you’ve learned from her?

I really admire her. She’s very smart and caring. I always want her to be like the Hermione Grainger of the show – the smartest person in the room who comes in and gets the job done.

6. Any fun behind-the-scenes stories you can share?

Oh, there are so many. It’s hard to think of one on the spot. We just have a lot of fun. The only thing I can think of right now is that when we have a lot of medical dialogue to memorize, we joke around a lot about it. We get to know it so well that we know each other’s dialogue, and we rap it or do fun things with it.

7. Do you have any other projects you’re working on besides Transplant?

Not right now because it’s a 10 month shoot, so it takes up all of my time.

8. What has the fan response been like for you so far?

It’s been wonderful. Fans have been really nice and it’s great that we have so many fans and viewers. Now it’s crossed over the border, so that’s nice.

9. Anything else you’d like to say to the fans?

Just thank you for watching and I hope you enjoy this season.

Transplant

Sundays on NBC (10-11 p.m. ET); Season Premiere: March 6

Official Website

“Transplant” follows the story of Dr. Bashir “Bash” Hamed (Hamza Haq), a talented doctor and Syrian refugee, who fled his war-torn country with his younger sister, Amira (Sirena Gulamgaus), for a fresh start in Canada. After a truck crashes into the restaurant where he’s been working, Bash earns the chance to practice medicine again by using his field-honed skills to save multiple lives in brilliant fashion, including that of Dr. Jed Bishop (John Hannah), the Chief of Emergency Medicine at York Memorial Hospital in Toronto.

But Bash is told he’ll need to redo his residency in Emergency Medicine from the bottom and despite his obvious talents intuition, and training, starting over is not an easy road and his life experience is not a perfect match for the strict protocols at York Memorial. Through perseverance he makes inroads, developing camaraderie with his new colleagues, including the driven Dr. Magalie “Mags” LeBlanc (Laurence Leboeuf), the reserved and ambitious surgical resident Dr. June Curtis (Ayisha Issa), easy-going pediatric ER physician Dr. Theo Hunter (Jim Watson), head nurse Claire Malone (Torri Higginson) and even earning the respect of Dr. Wendy Atwater (Linda E. Smith), the department’s second-in-command who runs a very tight ship.

Jed Bishop (John Hannah), the team’s demanding, inscrutable boss, looms large and keeps everyone on their toes with a unique compassion and commitment to his staff that also connects them.

Season two picks up with Bash and his fellow residents reeling after Dr. Bishop suffers a stroke. With everything at the hospital destabilized, the place that Bash had started to consider home suddenly feels precarious. As the team adjusts to new colleagues while dealing with the challenges of life, unexpected faces from the past leave Bash seriously doubting whether his transplant into this new world was successful.

Bash’s hard work, compassion and hopefulness tell a universal story about the human ability to not only survive, but ultimately thrive when our lives suddenly change course.

Creator Joseph Kay returns as showrunner and executive producer. Director Stefan Pleszczynski joins as executive producer and will direct six episodes. Additional executive producers include Bruno Dubé, Jocelyn Deschênes, Virginia Rankin, Tara Woodbury, Josée Vallée and Adam Barken.

“Transplant” is produced by Sphere Media in association with CTV and Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group.

TV Interview!

Jason Beghe and Marina Squerciati of "Chicago PD" on NBC

Interview with actors Jason Beghe and Marina Squerciati, and executive producer Gwen Sigan of “Chicago P.D.” on NBC by Suzanne 3/30/22

This was from a fun virtual press day with the “Chicago One” actors. They were great at answering our questions!

MORE INFO:

Jason Beghe and Marina Squerciati of "Chicago PD" on NBC From multiple Emmy Award-winning executive producer Dick Wolf and the team behind the hit series “Chicago Fire” and “Chicago Med,” “Chicago P.D.” is a riveting police drama about the men and women of the Chicago Police Department’s elite Intelligence Unit, combatting the city’s most heinous offenses – organized crime, drug trafficking, high-profile murders and beyond.

At the center of “Chicago P.D.” is Sgt. Hank Voight (Jason Beghe), who is at ground zero against the war on crime in Chicago. He will do almost anything to bring criminals to justice. In the past year, Voight has fought to turn over a new leaf, carefully navigating the situation at the P.D. with a new boss who has helped him and the unit adapt to a new reality.

His close-knit team of detectives share his passion for keeping the city safe, including Det.

Actors Josh Duhamel, Renée Zellweger, Judy Greer, Glenn Fleshler; and producers Liz Cole, Jenny Klein and Chris McCumber of "The Thing About Pam" on NBC.

Interview with Actors Josh Duhamel, Renée Zellweger, Judy Greer, Glenn Fleshler; and producers Liz Cole, Jenny Klein and Chris McCumber of “The Thing About Pam” on NBC by Suzanne 2/11/22

This show is very well done, so I hope you can watch and enjoy it. It’s a sort of docu-drama, where real actors portray real people in their real situations (in this case, murder), but it’s also done with a slight bit of humor. It has a great cast.

I was very happy to be able to speak to Josh Duhamel, who’s one of my favorite actors. It was great to see Renée Zellweger and Judy Greer, too. Of course Renée is not only the star of the show, but she’s the most famous person in the show and in our panel. Greer does one of the voices on “Archer” on FX, so I’m quite familiar with her. She’s done a lot of other acting, as well. Almost everyone in the press asked Renée or the producers a question, so I was glad to be able to ask Josh one. I felt bad for the other actors that were ignored.

“The Thing About Pam” is based on the 2011 murder of Betsy Faria that resulted in her husband Russ’s conviction, although he insisted he didn’t kill her. He was later exonerated. This brutal crime set off a chain of events that would expose a diabolical scheme deeply involving Pam Hupp. A thorough examination of the scheme was featured on several episodes of “Dateline NBC,” becoming one of the show’s most popular subjects. It also became the subject of a popular 2019 podcast, “The Thing About Pam,” which has been downloaded over 20 million times. “The Thing About Pam” will premiere Tuesday, March 8th, at 10 p.m., and run for six episodes.

Josh Duhamel in "The Thing About Pam" on NBC Here was my question for Josh: “What can you tell us about your character, Joel?”

He replied, “Gosh, where do I begin?” He told us that he became “pretty good friends” with Joel “throughout this process.” The Joel in the TV show “was just a really fun character to dive into. He’s a defense attorney and has defended the worst of the worst, and I think [he] came into this expecting the same as what’s he done in the past, [which] is defending a guilty man, and [then] he quickly finds out that …Russell didn’t do this.” He enjoyed picking Joel’s brain about how “he evolved throughout the process.” At first Joel was just doing his regular job, but then he realized that his client was not guilty, so he was determined, “like, a dog with a bone” by the end of it. He “really took it personally and really wanted to see justice. And I think that that’s what was really fun for me.” He added, “You know, obviously, it wasn’t as much of a stretch, this character, as it was for Renée or, you know, Glenn, or even Judy, but it was really fun to sort of try to [act out] the frustration that he had to feel throughout this process [because it] was something that was [difficult], but at the same time, he was a really cool dude; never really lost his temper, except for a few times….Me, as Josh, I would have lost it several times, but Joel Schwartz didn’t.” What was interesting for Josh was figuring out how Joel handled that. “And so, he was a really valuable resource for me throughout this whole process, and turns out to be a really great dude.”

Of course, almost everyone wanted to speak with Renée, the star. First, she was asked about her return to TV, since she’s mostly done films. Renée answered that she really liked it. The pace and everything suits her. She said, “I love that it’s quick, and you have to think fast on your feet. Yeah, I enjoyed it a lot. Not so different from making the independent films. You know, you’ve got to make the most of the little bit of time that you have. So, it’s good training, I think, for independent films,” she laughed.

She was next asked to compare the role she played of Judy Garland in he 2019 film with playing Pam, since both were real life people. The reporter figures that she had more leeway to play Pam, since she’s not as famous.

Renée mostly agreed with what was said. There is a lot more material of Judy to use than Pam Hupp. She’s not sure that she has much more freedom to play Pam, since there is some information out there already, and they had to recreate her as best as they could so that people who were familiar with her could recognize her. She admitted, “Yes, of course, I could see that people project their own life experiences in making assumptions about the character of this person, whom they think they know. That felt important. And it’s pretty well established, her looks. So, we did what we could to come as close as we could.”

Renée Zellweger as Pam Hupp Renée was also asked how much the prosthetics, costumes and wigs affect her performance and whether those present any special challenges. Renée laughed at that question and said that most of them would agree that using those things benefit an actor as it’s “part of your toolkit that makes it …easier to achieve what it is that you’re trying to, in terms of telling someone else’s story.” Speaking as an actor, she said that “the further you are away from yourself, the safer you feel to explore.” All of the actors went through “pretty remarkable transformations” to represent the real people. She asked Judy if that was “half the fun.” Judy agreed that it does make it easier to act like the person when you “have all that stuff on” and that it is like you’re “hiding” and “don’t feel as vulnerable.” She added, “And the crew is always surprised to see what you really look like when you do show up as yourself.” She laughed.

Josh joked, “Personally, I loved the wig. It made me feel like I had a full head of hair again. Like Judy said, I looked like Tom Hanks in ‘Splash.'” Everyone laughed at that. Judy made a joke at her expense that “Splash” is “such a hip reference. I got my finger on the pulse, you know?” which evoked more laughter.

Renée was asked next what about the character or the writing brought her to the series.

Renée confided that the script hadn’t yet been written when she signed on to the project, but she wanted to be part of the process of creating the show from the materials that were available, such as the podcast and the episodes of “Dateline.” She said that it was “Thrilling to be …alongside to witness that.” She remarked that it was the kind of story that “you couldn’t make up.” She shared with us that she listened to the entire podcast “when I was driving up and down the 5 Freeway, going to take my dog to get his hip replaced up in San Francisco, and I couldn’t believe it.” She called it an “experience of escalating absurdities.” She felt it would make an interesting show and would also allow them to “discuss some really important, current, relevant social issues.” Some people laughed at this as well.

The next reporter asked the producers how they figured out what tone they wanted to use for the series, since it was true crime, and how they cast Renée, and how she had to change her looks to play Pam.

Producer Chris let us know that Renée was the one to call him: “I’ll say this, and I’ll keep it really simple: When a two time Oscar winner calls and says, ‘I’m obsessed with this story, and I want to play Pam, and I want to produce,’ I mean, you say, ‘Yes, yes, yes, and yes.’ And our job, at that point, is to, you know, provide Renée, and the rest of the cast, with all the tools that they need to embody these characters.” He concluded that it was an easy choice, with this cast.

The cast of "The Thing About Pam" on NBC Creator/Producer Jenny also added, “Yes, we’re so lucky to have Renée embodying this totally unique character, and on the show, a lot of the absurdity comes from Pam herself.” She addressed the question about the tone of the show. She described how they had to have a real balance between the tragic story and how it was “so disturbing and unspeakable,” as well as showing the “absurd details that Pam really did or said.” The heart of show, she relayed, was Betsy and her family, and “that grounding emotional center with Russ, or Betsy’s daughter, Mariah. And so, when you’re really feeling their raw pain and frustration, it can actually make Pam’s actions all the more upsetting. So, I’d say it’s a real push and pull between the levity and the drama. It’s like a hybrid.”

Chris praised Jenny’s pitch, where she described the tone of show using examples from “Fargo.” The dark streak of humor comes from Pam’s psyche.

Jenny admitted that she’d never seen someone like Pam on TV before. She’s “completely unfazed when caught in a lie, and changing her story so much. It almost creates like a game for the viewer, where they’re the only ones actually tracking Pam’s lies through her world because they’re the only ones taking in the show as a whole.”

They were also asked why this murder case was different from the others that they wanted to make it into this miniseries.

Jenny let us know that the cooperation between NBC and all of the reporting done by Dateline, along with the other production companies were what infused the horror and other elements into the show. She believes that, “it’s a true-crime story that, in some ways, won’t leave you feeling depressed, but will keep you on the edge of your seat because there’s so many twists and turns.”

Chris asked Liz to chime in on this particular question. Liz revealed that they’ve wanted to make a good script based on one of the “Dateline” stories. This story about Pam Hupp was the only one they considered because it’s so rich and resonates well with “Dateline viewers. She added, “when we first embarked on this, I don’t think I imagined, in my wildest dreams, that we would have Renée Zellweger staring as Pam, and the rest of the incredible cast, and, you know, working with Blumhouse has just been a joy. So, it’s been a wonderful partnership.” Chris agreed with those comments and praised the partnership.

Josh also put in his two cents, saying, “I can’t believe this hasn’t happened earlier” because he’s a long-time “Dateline” fan and remembered thinking that this story would make a great movie or TV show. He stated, “You wouldn’t believe this story if it weren’t true.” To this note, Liz added that they called their second episode “Stranger than Fiction.” She also jokingly said to Josh that they needed to send Josh his own “Dateline” hat. He replied, “Please do. And if you could have Keith Morrison send me a Christmas card every year, that would be great, too.” Liz postulated, “An audio card.” Then, Josh did a fantastic imitation of Keith Morrison, saying, “Merry Christmas, Josh”, so everyone laughed.

The next reporter asked two questions in one, even though we’re not supposed to do that. He or she asked whether any of the real-life family members were involved in creating the show, as well as asked Renée how she prepared to play such an evil person, when she’s not that way at all in real life.

Jenny replied that they took their responsibilities of bringing a real-life story to life seriously. They contacted many of the people involved with Pam Hupp’s case who knew her, and many spoke with them so that they could get the full story. However, she stipulated that they also had to make it a dramatic story for TV, so some of it is fiction. Renée added her answer to what Jenny said. Hearing about the real life Pam, seeing videos, reading books etc. helped prepare her for the role.

Judy Greer as Leah Askey Renée was also asked about using prosthetics on the show to look like Pam. This type of process was pretty new to Renée, so she learned quite a bit about it. Apparently the pieces often fall off or turn into something else by the end of the day. She had to learn to act more with her whole body covered in these prosthetics. She had to learn a new skill. At the beginning of shooting, it took “about four hours” by prosthetic makeup designer & creator Arjen Tuiten and his team, but then because of his “genius,” they were able to cut it down to 2 1/2 hours. She found it to be quite “fun creatively.” Then she reflected that it might make her “a crazy person to find that fun, gluing stuff to your head every day, but I did find it fun.” She said that Judy also had some prosthetics, but Judy replied that she just put on a wig. Everyone laughed at that. Josh pointed out that she also had contacts to deal with.

Glenn added that he just had to sit there. He couldn’t imagine what Renée had to go through every day, spending hours putting the prosthetics on, and then “show up on set with the spirit that she had and has every day, it’s really remarkable.” He praised her quite a lot.

The next journalist asked about Renée’s accent and how she put on Pam’s attitude. He/she asked if Renée visited a lot of “convenience stores” to get more of a feeling for them (which seemed like kind of an odd question).

Renée said kindly that she loves to take road trips, so convenience stores are not new to her. She had a hard time getting the accent right, saying it was “elusive.” She found that even within the region she lived, Pam had a “peculiar” accent that was uniquely hers. She listened to a lot of recordings of Pam, repeating what she said until she got it right.

Next the producers were asked how they’re able to have the actors portray real-life people (other than Pam) – whether they have to be sensitive to how they are and whether they worry about having them be too comical or whether they get permission.

Glenn Fleshler as Russ Faria Jenny replied that they tried as much as possible to stick to the facts, which they had from court transcripts and video coverage (thanks to NBC news). She pointed out that “there’s certainly the law enforcement and prosecution side of the story that is very specific to this town and brings out one of our greater themes, which is about confirmation bias, and what happened to Russ Faria.”

They were also asked about what challenges they faced with creating a fictional story based on a pretty recent true story.

Jenny told us that the goal is to make the viewers feel heartbroken when they should be (about the families involved) and to also “recognize the absurdity” about it.

Chris jumped in to say that they also had the goal to make it a “really great entertaining piece of premium television.” He mentioned that it’s difficult in today’s TV landscape to get people’s attention and to create an event that will make the show break out from the other “millions of hours of shows.”

The producers were also asked about how they went about making this fiction and not just another retelling of the Dateline episodes or a podcast. Jenny praised their “amazing cast” for “bringing these people to life in ways that a podcast, by its nature, simply can’t.” They also “were able to just delve deeper into who Pam is” and really show the emotion of the story to the audience that those other outlets couldn’t do.

When the panel concluded, and the host said that the next panel would be for “Law & Order,” Josh joked, “Can I be on that one, too?” and Jenny replied, “No.” That ended the panel with more laughter. All that laughter is the sign of a great panel, and they also made a great show on top of that. It airs Tuesdays, 10/9c.

Interview with Lisa Berry

TV Interview!

Lisa Berry, Rainbow Sun Francks, Henderson Wade and Humberly González of "Fallen Angels Murder Club" movies on Lifetime.

Interview with Lisa Berry, Rainbow Sun Francks, Henderson Wade and Humberly González of “Fallen Angels Murder Club” movies on Lifetime by Suzanne 3/22/22

It was great to have a Zoom press call with these actors. “Fallen Angels Murder Club: Friends to Die For” airs Saturday, 4/2 and “Fallen Angels Murder Club: Heroes and Felons” airs next Saturday, 4/9. The movies star singer/actress Toni Braxton, who was not in attendance. Eddie Cibrian also stars in the first movie (SPOILER: I believe he’s the murder victim). I really wanted to ask Rainbow a question, but unfortunately, he arrived late and had to leave early. It was kind of amusing because when the conference started, he was on the subway, which we could see from his video. Then he was in his apartment for awhile, and then he was gone again! The main reason I wanted to speak with him because he was so great in “Stargate: Atlantis.” However, I was even happier to speak with Lisa Berry, who is the second lead in the series, and the others. She starred as Billie in “Supernatural,” so it was really great to interview her. I hope you can enjoy both movies, which are murder mysteries. More details about them below.

Here’s our interview with Lisa! We’ll have more videos soon as well as the transcript…

But when a member of her book club is murdered in a scene straight out of the previous night’s novel, Hollis becomes the subject of police scrutiny. Refusing to get stuck "Fallen Angels Murder Club" cast with another bad rap, Hollis sets out to investigate her fellow club members and after a second book-inspired murder, she races to identify the killer before she becomes the next victim.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Door opens ]

Diane: You came back.

Jack: I have no desire to be here. But it’s pretty obvious you’re not gonna let this go till you say what you have to say. Say it.

Diane: I know you’re angry and confused —

Jack: No, I’m a lot more than angry.

Diane: But there’s a reason for all of it.

Jack: A reason you dragged my grieving granddaughter into your little game? By the way, that’s over. She is off limits. This is between you and me. No one else. No one.

Phyllis: Hey, jack. It’s me. Um, I just wanted to know how you were doing. Um…you know, I know it’s pretty emotional for you, getting together with allie. Um…I just know it’s complicated. You know, there’s a lot going on. So, anyway, um, I just wanted you to know that I am here for you. Whatever you need, I am here for you. You can call anytime. And I really mean that — anytime, um, day or night. Don’t even worry about the time difference. Um, okay, I’ll talk to you later.

[ Cellphone thuds ]

Diane: My contact with allie was never about deception. It was about reaching out. Trying to give you back something that you didn’t even know you’d lost.

Jack: I hope you don’t expect her to thank you.

Diane: But what about you? I know you’re grateful.

Jack: Oh, is that what you want? A thank-you? Thank you, diane. Are we done here?

Diane: I’m trying to make amends.

Jack: To me. Not to the people you hurt. The people you used and exploited. The people accused of your murder. All you left in your wake was heartache and fear and anger. Some of us got over it. Others? Like kyle? You stole from him something he can never get back. [ Gasps ]

Jack: Can I get you anything at all?

Kyle: Yeah. My mom.

Jack: Look, I know you didn’t want to talk about it on the plane.

Kyle: Talking won’t bring her back.

Jack: Try to remember something, okay?

Kyle: Okay, what?

Jack: Your mother loved you more than anything in the world. You were her whole life, the best part of her, she used to say. And there is nothing she wouldn’t have done for you.

Jack: Your tore that little boy’s heart out. And for that, I will never forgive you.

Diane: You may not forgive me, but maybe, if you listen, you’ll finally understand.

[Sfx: Chicken clucking]

[ Keys clacking ]

Lauren: Hi.

Phyllis: Hey! How are you doing?

Lauren: Uh, I’m good, except that I need a massage, or maybe even a manicure, anything that the escape club could cook up to help me forget about the outside world.

Phyllis: Are you okay?

Lauren: I’m, uh — I’m going through something. Um, but I just — I need to relax.

Phyllis: Oh, alright. Well, I’ll book a massage for you if that’s what you want, but I have a better idea.

Lauren: Oh?

Phyllis: Yeah.

Lauren: I’m open to anything.

Phyllis: Want to talk to a friend?

Lauren: I would love to talk to my friend, but I don’t want to interfere in your work.

Phyllis: Oh, you’re not doing that. I could use a chat.

Jack: Well, you wanted this, so let’s hear it. Tell me why you shredded genoa city and our son’s life.

Diane: [ Sighs ] If there had been another way —

Jack: Than faking your own death? Oh, I guess there was no other option.

Diane: You’re right. I did enormous damage, with too many threats, and just as many schemes. I mean, victor hated me by then. And nikki and phyllis, tucker, ashley — I had wronged them all, one way or another. The walls were closing in, and so I made a plan. I would fake my own death and take kyle far away. Only none of it happened as planned. I mean, everyone was angry. Everyone wanted me gone. I mean, in the end, I was just desperation and panic. And I needed help, and [Sighs] Deacon sharpe gave it to me.

Jack: Oh, dear god.

Diane: A corpse from the morgue created the illusion. And limiting the people who saw me dead was key. And paying off anyone who could reveal the truth completed the effect. But when it was time, I couldn’t meet up with kyle. I knew that we would never outrun you, and I just — I — I couldn’t do that to him.

[ Voice breaking ] Having the world hate me was hard. But leaving kyle was soul-crushing, jack. I was so broken and I felt so worthless. And…well, then I just convinced myself that he was better off without me. You know, my — my only solace was he had a father who would love and protect him. Jack, I knew you would do whatever you could for him. And he was safe and loved with you. And I had nothing, and I had no one. And so I came west.

Jack: You ran away.

Diane: I did.

Jack: You didn’t take responsibility. You didn’t face the people that you abused.

Diane: Everybody wanted me gone, jack. I mean, I was truly hated, and — and, in time, I hated myself. I mean, all the self-loathing and — and the guilt and the shame. And [Exhales sharply] I thought, “why not? You know, the whole world thinks you’re dead. Why don’t you just give them what they want?”

Jack: So it was self-pity that motivated you, not caring about anyone else.

Diane: Fair enough. So, I — [ Chuckles ] I finally went to therapy. And I had to look at what I had done and why I had done it. And it took me years to come to terms with who I’d been, but who I wanted to be. But always, always, I held kyle in my heart. Any glimpse I saw of him on the internet — I mean, those were moments of pure joy. He was so beautiful and smart and strong. And, jack, it was obvious. You had made him into such a wonderful man. He’s got college, a career, maybe some heartbreak. But now he’s in milan with a wife and child. Jack, we’re grandparents.

Jack: We are nothing. You are kyle’s late mother. That’s what you chose.

Diane: Yes, and for many years that was the kindest thing I could do for him. I mean, to not burden him with my chaos. And — and — and, what, going back, admitting to him that I’d faked my death? I mean, how could I do that to him? How could I just upturn his life again?

Jack: Exactly. It is the one decent thing you did in this whole marvelous journey of self-discovery. Good for you. Congratulations. But we both know there’s more. What is it you want, diane? Attention? Absolution? Money? All three? Just tell me what you’re after so we can be done with this.

[Music: Sung by craig robinson]

Lauren: So, when michael retired from the da’s office, it was, you know, so we could spend more time together.

Phyllis: Mm.

Lauren: So he could have this quieter, simpler life.

Phyllis: And he worked for victor newman. Wow.

Lauren: [ Laughs ] Right. Exactly my reaction. Um, so he said not to worry, it’s not gonna interfere with our time together and he’s gonna make his own hours. And it’s not gonna be dangerous or risky.

Phyllis: What does victor have him doing?

Lauren: I can’t exactly get into specifics.

Phyllis: Ah.

Lauren: But let’s just say that a very routine assignment was anything but that. I went days without hearing from him.

Phyllis: Really? So he thinks it’s a wild adventure, and you’re just worried sick, right?

Lauren: Right. That’s why I’m so frustrated. How do I fight it? Do I just accept this new unpredictable lifestyle of his?

Phyllis: I mean, why is it that the thing that we love about someone is also the thing that just drives us crazy and makes us worry about them?

Lauren: [ Chuckles ]

Diane: You have no good memories of us? None at all? Because I do. From the very beginning. Of course I had my heart broken more than once. But it was worth it just to be in your life.

Jack: That was decades ago, diane. If you’re still holding on to that, I can’t help you. There was far more bad than good. Mountains of bad.

Jack: Diane, I don’t know what part of your little 12-step program I am.

Diane: As I said, I was passing through town. I happened to run into a man i was engaged to once, and i decided to speak from the heart.

Jack: Well, if you’re expecting the same thing from me, sorry. I’ve been there and done that.

Diane: No regrets?

Jack: None.

Diane: You mentioned you were talking about me this morning.

Jack: Yeah. To phyllis. She found an old set of plans you drew up for our dream house.

Diane: And you kept them all this time? How sweet.

Jack: I tore them this morning.

Diane: Oh.

Jack: I told phyllis all about our little “fiasco.” How while you were drawing up those plans, you were also starting a relationship with victor newman. How our entire relationship was a waste of time.

Diane: Ouch. That hurts.

Jack: You’re looking prosperous. Obviously, you’re doing well.

Diane: Yes, I am, thank you.

Jack: Good. I hate to kick someone while they’re down.

Diane: [ Scoffs ] Someplace you need to be?

Jack: Yep.

[ Dishware clatters ]

Diane: Do you have any parting words for an old flame?

Jack: As a matter of fact, I do. I’ve come to realize over time that victor newman did me a favor. Taking you off my hands. In fact, it’s the only nice thing he’s ever done for me. Goodbye, diane. Have a nice life.

Diane: Maybe we were too much alike. But the spark was addictive. Well, for me at least. And there was love.

Diane: [ Exhales sharply ] I can’t believe it.

Jack: What, something wrong?

Diane: It’s — it’s — oh, my gosh. Oh.

[ Sighs ] It’s a beautiful diamond engagement ring.

Jack: I love you. Please say you’ll be my bride. Here. Let’s see what a little champagne will do to add sparkle to a diamond. Here. Say you’ll be my wife. Make me the happiest man on the planet.

Diane: I loved you, jack. And I know there was a time that you loved me, too.

Jack: That died before you did. There’s no whipping up nostalgia. There’s no “good old times.” Any warm or even neutral feelings I had for you are gone. Obliterated by this latest stunt.

Diane: Stunt? I brought allie into your life. And more importantly, I brought kyle into this world. No matter what, that connects us. And I know that means something to you, too.

Lauren: And why do I feel like we’re not talking about michael anymore? Are you worried about jack?

Phyllis: Why do you think I’m worried about jack?

Lauren: Because I’ve heard you talk about him for months, and whatever’s going on with him must be pretty significant. And don’t deny it. You said you needed to talk to a friend as much as I did.

Phyllis: Well, it’s not a big deal. Really. I wasn’t worried about him. But now I’m wondering if i should be.

Jack: Yes, bringing kyle into this world is the one good thing you ever did. What about now, diane? Keemo. Allie. The mysterious texts. Hell, you bought this entire house just to talk to me. Think about that. Think about how absurd that sounds. The money, the time. The pretense. Does that sounds normal to you?

Diane: My thought was, it’s time. I have faced my mistakes. I’ve accepted the past, and i have done the work. The old diane truly is dead. And it is time to make amends.

Jack: I’m afraid there’s more than just me.

Diane: Yes, there are many others.

Jack: Yes. Who have gotten on with their lives without knowing you are a changed woman.

Diane: When keemo died, you lost any chance at being part of his life. And then I guided you to allie. The granddaughter you would have never have known otherwise. Because I know that family means the world to you, jack. Just as it does to me. [ Sighs ] So, all I’m asking is —

Jack: You want me to help you connect to kyle.

Jack: And there it is. The demand.

Diane: A request. That you of all people should understand. How could I not want to reconnect with my son?

Jack: You just said yourself you are toxic!

Diane: In the past, yes. Absolutely. But not now.

Jack: Now? You manipulated allie. You deceived me. Sent me mysterious texts so I’d find my son’s obituary. In what world is that reformed?!

Diane: I protected kyle by leaving. I did what was best for his sake. But he’s a grown man now. He’s a father. He — he knows how deep a parent’s love goes. Jack, he’s in a better place to understand my love for him. And I’m in a better, stronger place. I could be a healthy presence in his life. Oh, come on. You can’t tell me you don’t remember those moments when we’d look at that little boy and we marveled at how perfect anything could be.

Jack: I remember a lot, diane. I remember how hard you worked to keep my son from me. Shipping him off to switzerland, changing his name so I couldn’t find him. Timothy, wasn’t it?

Diane: Okay, that was when i was spinning out, and I regret every moment. But I have changed.

Jack: So you’ve said.

Diane: So have you jack, so don’t pretend it’s not possible. You were so cold and — and callous in the past. You were using people. Vindictive. Focused on revenge. But you’re not that person anymore. So why is it so impossible to believe that the same thing couldn’t happen for me?

Lauren: Jack is my friend, too. If there’s something to worry about, I would like to know.

Phyllis: Well, it’s not my news to share.

[ Footsteps passing ] He’s in los angeles dealing with something from his past. Oh, I shouldn’t have said that! Why’d I say that? It’s not my news to share. Don’t be concerned. I encouraged him to go.

Lauren: Alright, so then why are you stressing out about it? Are — are you having second thoughts?

Phyllis: Well, no, I’m not. I just — I’m worried about him. I — I should have gone with him. I’m worried about him facing this alone.

Diane: Kyle is my son.

Jack: You said yourself he’s a grown man. He has built a wonderful life with his family. You think I’m gonna let you destroy that? Poison his life in italy? No. Never. So you go back to your new and improved life. I’ll go back to genoa city and forget this ever happened.

Diane: But you won’T. You can’T. That’s not the man you are, jack. You love kyle with your whole heart. And half of him is me.

Jack: He grieved, diane.

Diane: [ Exhales sharply ]

Jack: Cried himself to sleep night after night. His mother died. She was killed. He was lost, confused. Heartbroken. He had his mother ripped from his life. I know this because I was there. I held him. I tried to comfort him by telling him it wouldn’t always hurt so much, that I would always be there to protect him. Why would I stop doing that now?!

Diane: Our son needs me in his life. He deserves his mother.

Jack: A real mother. Not you.

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Jack: And you sure as hell don’t deserve him.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Jack: Goodbye, diane.

[ Door opens ]

Diane: [ Breathes deeply ]

[ Exhales heavily ] Charmin ultra soft has so much cushiony softness,

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Be ready for whatever life throws your way.

Jack: You’re not really worried that I have feelings for diane jenkins?

Phyllis: No, because I know you’re in love with me.

Jack: That’s right. Body and soul.

Phyllis: Yet you chose to get involved with this woman again and again?

Jack: My history with diane goes way back. I met her when she was a model at jabot. Hell, I should’ve learned my lesson then and gotten her the hell out of my life.

Phyllis: But you didn’T.

Jack: No, I didn’T. She came back into town, and I got sucked right back in. And that, of course, is when i got my comeuppance from victor newman. Actually, I should be thanking the mustache. He did finally get diane out of my life once and for all.

Phyllis: And victor got his own comeuppance.

Jack: Oh, you mean the ugly divorce. Yeah. The final blow came when diane found out that, uh, the baby she was carrying wasn’t victor’s, as she had insisted it was.

Phyllis: That’s when she split out of town.

Jack: Yep. Any trace of diane jenkins is out of my life forever.

Jack: Diane’s son kyle… is my child.

Phyllis: How?

Jack: You know the circumstances surrounding how she got pregnant.

Phyllis: Yeah, I do. I know that she stole sperm from a reproductive lab.

Jack: Okay, what — what — what you don’t is that a couple of years ago I had a testicular cancer scare. My doctor suggested as a precaution, I leave a sample at robertson reproduction labs. It turns out now that victor’s swimmers were switched with mine. And the mystery father is yours truly.

Phyllis: Nikki is responsible for the switch.

Jack: Nikki is not responsible for this.

Phyllis: Yes. Right. Right.

Jack: Nikki never even met the man that switched the samples.

Phyllis: So, what are you telling me? It’s a coincidence?

Jack: Yes. Yes.

Phyllis: Bull. It’s not a coincidence. Give me a break. Nikki is responsible for this. Or maybe diane. I mean, we both know that she has a thing for you. Somebody is responsible for this, jack.

Jack: Listen to me. Nikki would never do anything consciously to mess me up.

Phyllis: What about diane?

Jack: Diane — if she had known, why would she leave the country for a year? Why would she go through the public humiliation she went through with victor? She could have come to me. You and I weren’t together then. Besides, I’ve seen diane. She’s as messed up by all this as I am.

Phyllis: Oh, I’m sure she is. Oh, I’m sure she’s so messed up. Jack, this is absolutely unbelievable.

Jack: Phyllis, I need desperately for you to understand this.

Phyllis: Oh, god. You know what? Yeah, I understand all of this. But you know what I don’t understand, is if you and diane just found out about this, what is she gonna do? Just give up her kid to you and me and go merrily back to milan? Is that the story?

Jack: Not exactly.

Phyllis: Not exactly. Right. Wow. There’s that phrase again. Don’t you tell me that you’re thinking of going to court over this. Don’t you dare tell me you’re thinking of making diane stay in genoa city so we can share custody with and her and have this bitch in our life 24/7. Don’t you dare tell me you’re thinking of that.

[ Cellphone pings ]

Lauren: Thank you. You know, I’m sure jack appreciates your willingness to support him and your opinions.

Phyllis: Well, I don’t know about that. You know, I think he’s tired of my opinions.

Lauren: [ Laughs ]

Phyllis: And I’m sort of walking the line of being a friend and meddling.

Lauren: Yeah, but based on what you’ve said to me, I don’t think you have anything to worry about.

Phyllis: Yeah. Listen, this is no big deal compared to what you’re going through with michael. And it’s fine. Jack and I are friends, and it’ll be fine. It’s just — [ Stammers ] I’ve been calling him and he’s not answering and he usually answers and it just makes me anxious.

Lauren: I get that.

Phyllis: Yeah.

Lauren: But I’m sure he can handle whatever’s going on in los angeles. He’s a very capable man, just like michael.

Phyllis: Yeah, he is. He just has this big, amazing heart. And it’s a good thing. But it can cause him to get blind-sided in the worst way.

Diane: Why don’t you sit on the couch with kyle between us? We’ll play with some of your old toys, and that’ll keep him happy.

Jack: Okay.

Diane: That’s right.

Jack: There we go.

Diane: Look, sweetie. This was daddy’S.

Jack: What do you think of that?

Diane: He likes it. I know you don’t trust me, jack. You’ve made that very clear. But still, seeing you and kyle together like this makes me wish that there could be a better solution to this mess. In fact, it makes me certain that there must be a better way. He deserves that.

Jack: I had a great time.

Kyle: Me, too.

Jack: I’m really proud of you, son. You have no idea. You’ve turned into a great kid. And I know that wasn’t my doing.

Diane: Oh, don’t be so sure.

Jack: Don’t forget our deal.

Kyle: I won’T.

Diane: What “deal”?

Kyle: The next time a father/son event comes up… dad wants to be there.

Diane: Well, I hope he is.

Diane: [ Sighs ] And tonight’s winning numbers are 18,

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Phyllis: Oh, it’s jack!

Lauren: Excellent timing. He could tell you were thinking of him.

Phyllis: Yes. Yeah. I’ll be right back. Hey, jack! What is going on? Um, I tried to call. I’ve been worried. I’ve left messages.

Jack: Yeah, I got them. I appreciate all of them.

Phyllis: Okay. Are you okay?

Jack: I’ve been spending some time with allie.

Phyllis: Oh. And how is that time going?

Jack: You know, I’ll tell you all about it when I get back.

Phyllis: There’s something going on. I can hear it in your voice.

Jack: I’ll handle it.

Phyllis: Okay, now it’s worse.

Jack: I’ll be back as soon as I can.

Phyllis: Okay. I’ll be here.

Jack: Don’t worry. Hi.

Allie: Hi. Thanks. So, how did it go? With diane?

Jack: Listen to me. Diane is not your problem. Forget about her. Forget you ever even met her.

Allie: She’ll be living in my dad’s house.

Jack: [ Sighs ]

Allie: Which she only bought to go through me to get to you. God, it feels so wrong. Like a violation.

Jack: I am so sorry.

Allie: It’s not your fault.

Jack: No, I still responsible. Diane wants to be near kyle, and that’s the last place she should be.

Allie: She abandoned her son when he was a child who needed her. But after all this time, she wants him back.

Jack: Well, that’s not gonna happen. And I told her to stay away from you from now on.

Allie: But will she stay away from you?

Jack: I can handle diane.

[ Breathes deeply ] What? What — what does that look mean?

Allie: [ Laughs ] Nothing. Nothing. It’s just… you know, I can see some of my dad in you. He gets pretty fierce when he gets protective.

Jack: He was like that, was he?

Allie: Very much so. I would need to tell him to tone it down sometimes.

Jack: I’d like to learn more about how keemo — how hao was as a father.

Allie: I have stories. But the thing is…

Jack: Go ahead.

Allie: I’d like to learn about you, too. You and your family.

Jack: It’s your family, too. Yeah, that’s great. What do you want to talk about first? Uh, your great aunts? Your cousins? Your uncle kyle who’s pretty close to your age?

Allie: This is surreal.

Jack: Yeah, it really is. And so much better than I ever expected.

Lauren: Do you feel better now that you’ve spoken to jack?

Phyllis: No. I feel worse. Something’s wrong.

Lauren: What did he say?

Phyllis: He didn’t say anything. It was the tone of his voice. I’ve heard that tone before.

Lauren: Hmm. So this is about his past.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Oh, yeah. It has to do with his family.

Lauren: Ah, the most important thing to him.

Phyllis: Yeah. I mean, it’s where all of his emotional scars come from, going all the way back to dina.

Lauren: Yeah, but you don’t ever get over the abandonment of a parent. I can certainly relate. I have had a really hard time with my mom.

Phyllis: You know, I heard that when dina first came into town to rebuild a relationship with her adult kids, right, that traci and ashley were very cautious about their feelings, you know? They weren’t very vulnerable.

Lauren: I knew the family back then, and that’s exactly how I remember it.

Phyllis: But it wasn’t like that with jack, you know? He — he let her in, you know, only to get the rug ripped out from under him time and time again.

Lauren: But, you know, that’s jack, you know? He has that capacity for love and forgiveness.

Phyllis: Yeah, he gets hurt over again and again. I’m guilty of that. I’ve hurt him a lot. I just stick the knife in and twist it.

Lauren: But you two are beyond that now.

Phyllis: Yeah. Yeah. I feel that we are. I mean, that’s why I’m very, very careful with him, you know? He means a lot to me. And, um, I never want to hurt him again. Uh, I could never do that to him.

Diane: Are you telling me that —

Jack: The two of you can move in temporarily until you’re able to decide which job to take. I am hoping, yes, in appreciation for my generosity, you might not move halfway around the world.

Diane: Have you spoken to anyone else about this?

Jack: Any family? No. No. I haven’t talked to my father yet.

Diane: So, you think he’ll agree?

Jack: Look, I’ll see to it that this works out. At any rate, you’ll be staying at the pool house.

Diane: The pool house?

Jack: It’s perfectly comfortable.

Diane: It’s not exactly a home.

Jack: Hey, it’s right next to the home.

Diane: No, still, that’s not what I had in mind.

Jack: Diane, given the circumstances, I thought it best for everyone concerned to keep a little distance between you and phyllis.

Diane: I knew that’s what this was about.

Jack: What the devil did you expect?

Diane: [ Scoffs ]

Jack: Look, I want this to work out. I am not gonna roll over my wife like some bulldozer. I have to take — no, i want to take her feelings into consideration.

Diane: Which means what? Sticking your son and me in some outbuilding so she won’t make waves? Well, thanks a lot, jack, for nothing!

[ Footsteps departing ]

Diane: [ Sighs ] I’m amber, I’ve lost 128 pounds with golo,

Jack: Oh, yeah. Breakfast is the great abbott family tradition. Best way to start any day. No matter how busy all of us are, we always make time for cinnamon rolls and bacon.

Allie: [ Chuckling ] Oh, wow. Thank you. That sounds amazing. I guess as an only child, I kind of missed out on that kind of thing.

Jack: Well, I never knew what it was like to grow up in a small family.

Allie: Oh, I got plenty of attention. Whenever I needed my dad, he was always there for me.

Jack: Your dad loved you very much.

Allie: [ Chuckles ] Even when I didn’t want him around.

Jack: A little too attentive sometimes?

Allie: Believe it or not, I was a mathlete. I know. Totally uncool. And having him show up to give me a one-man standing ovation at all our school competitions was just downright embarrassing.

[ Laughs ]

Lauren: You really think this situation in los angeles is going to lead to jack getting hurt?

Phyllis: Well, after that phone call, I’m just convinced that something is wrong. I don’t know what it is, but something is wrong. I mean, I spoke to him earlier, and he was fine. And then I spoke to somebody else who’s worried about jack’s situation, and that stirred up all these protective feelings that I have. And then that phone call that i just had with him, it was totally different. He had a totally different vibe than he had before. So, something has happened in between those two calls.

Lauren: I know. I know. You’re concerned about him.

[ Sighs ] Right now michael is home resting and recovering because he won’t let this thing go and he’s not gonna stop until he’s righted a wrong. So…I completely understand. You love him, and you don’t want to see him hurt. It’s as simple as that.

Diane: [ Breathes deeply ]

Next week on

“the young and the restless”…

Nikki: To have michael held captive in a foreign country? How can he do that to someone?

Victor: He’s not gonna get away with it.

Billy: Victoria, I need to talk to you…now.

Diane: Phyllis. I didn’t know you were in town.

Phyllis: I didn’t know you were alive. I have a lot of nausea, <

Proofread by Anita

Sonny: Good to see you, Brick.

Brick: Good to see you. How you doing, man?

Sonny: How’d you get here so fast from L.A.?

Brick: Ah. I know a guy who knows a guy who’s got a jet fueled and ready at LAX. When you call, I’m here. How you doing, man? How can I help you?

Sonny: There’s, uh — there’s been a void in my life too long that I’ve been trying to fill, but…

Brick: Someone used to fill that void.

Sonny: Yeah. Jason.

Man: Been a long time, Ms. Davis.

Alexis: It’s you.

Man: You remember.

Alexis: Oh, I never forget a face. Especially when it belongs to the man who blamed me for his brother’s death.

Harmony: [ Sighs ]

Nina: Hey. Hi. So, how did it go with Michael and Willow? You saw them, right?

Harmony: Yeah. Yeah, I did.

Nina: A-and? Did — did you tell them that it’s in Wiley’s best interests to let him visit with me?

Harmony: I said all that and more.

Nina: Great. And…?

Harmony: [ Sighs ]

Nina: Come on, Harmony. Don’t leave me in suspense. What did Michael and Willow say?

Harmony: Not what you wanted to hear.

Nikolas: [ Sighs ] There’s nothing to be afraid of. You’re safe.

Esme: This place is extraordinary. I mean, even the name sounds grand. Wyndemere.

Spencer: It’s not like you haven’t been here before.

Esme: Not for months. It’s good to be back.

Nikolas: Well, most importantly, you’re safe from Sonny and his goons here.

Spencer: And what about the lady of the house? When are you gonna loop Ava in?

[ Door closes ]

Judge Young: Ms. Robinson, there are two counts against you. How do you plead? Ms. Robinson?

Scott: Your honor —

Trina: I-I got this. Your honor… I plead not guilty.

Brick: The sun’s going down. Perfect time to raise a glass to our gone but never forgotten friend. Yeah. What happened to the bar? No single malt, aged 12 years in a sherry cask?

Sonny: Ah, I’m taking a break from the hard stuff. But the bar’s loaded, if you want to go and help yourself.

Brick: Wither thou goest, I will go.

Sonny: [ Laughs ] I was hoping you’d say that.

[ Both chuckle ]

Brick: So, how can I help you fill that void? You up for an adventure? San Juan, Hong Kong? Marrakesh?

Sonny: No, not adventure. Monica has declared Jason legally dead, so we’re all gonna be going to the memorial service.

Brick: May he rest in peace.

Sonny: Maybe Jason can, but I can’t. You remember… uh, Selina Wu?

Brick: I do.

Sonny: Right.

Brick: Formidable lady. She causing you trouble?

Sonny: She’s been giving me advice. Um, I’ve heard it many times.

Brick: What advice is this, exactly?

Sonny: I can’t run the business alone anymore, Brick. I need somebody else to step up and fill that hole that Jason left behind.

Brick: I accept.

Alexis: Brendan, isn’t it?

Brendan: It is.

Alexis: Last time we saw each other was at Neil’s funeral. Not a very pleasant occasion, for many reasons.

Brendan: This is a celebration of Neil’s life. You stripped him of everything he considered worth living for. I do not want this service tainted with your presence. You’re not welcome.

Alexis: You made your feelings crystal clear. And if it’s any consolation, that moment was devastating to me and sent me into my own personal hell.

Brendan: I heard you lost your law license, hit the booze pretty hard, and didn’t stop until you attacked a cop and went to prison.

Alexis: Mm. Very flattered that you’ve kept up with my life. What do you want?

Nina: Listen, Willow just told you what she thought Michael wanted to hear. You know what you need to do? Get her alone.

Harmony: [ Sighs ]

Nina: She’ll change her mind and let me see Wiley.

Harmony: No, I’m sorry, Nina. Willow does not think it’s in Wiley’s best interest to have contact with you.

Nina: So Michael and Willow want a fight, do they? They’ll get a fight. Especially after my run-in with Carly earlier.

Harmony: What happened?

Nina: Well, I foolishly tried to talk to Carly about reaching a compromise with Wiley, but she wasn’t having it.

Harmony: Is she not just going through a rough patch, right? She got divorced from Sonny.

Nina: Carly filed for that divorce. She pushed it through basically overnight. She threw away Sonny with both hands.

Harmony: Just give her some time. Let, you know, Carly lick her wounds, give her time to heal.

Nina: If that ever happens. And then what, Harmony? Wiley will be in college, asking, “who’s Nina?” And he’ll never know who his birth mother is. If only I knew that Nelle was my daughter before she died. I could have saved her from herself. [ Voice breaking ] I know I could’ve. And I wouldn’t have to be begging for a chance to get to know my grandson or for him to know me.

Nikolas: I’ll wait to tell Ava when she gets home. Right now, she’s at your friend Trina’s hearing.

Spencer: Right. That was today.

Esme: Do you wish you were there?

[ Liquid pouring ]

Spencer: I’m the last person that Trina wants to see.

Esme: I didn’t ask what Trina wants.

Nikolas: Esme, do you want to drop your bags off in your bedroom? It’s the same one you were in last time you were here.

Spencer: Father, you can’t stop Esme from bringing up Trina. She’s obsessed.

Esme: Don’t I have reason to be? I mean, it doesn’t matter that there’s evidence that Trina posted that video of Joss and Cam. Sonny corinthos still believes it was me.

Nikolas: Which is why you’re at Wyndemere. It’s Spencer’s home. And it’s safe.

Esme: Is any place really safe from Sonny Corinthos?

Spencer: Uncle Sonny will do anything and everything to protect his family.

Esme: Protect them from me, you mean.

Spencer: I didn’t say that.

Esme: Oh, I didn’t have to. I’ll take my bags up.

Nikolas: Why are you treating Esme this way when you invited her to stay here?

Spencer: I’m sorry, father, but she really pushes my buttons. The way that I’ve been known to push other people’s. By the way, is there a bomb shelter on the island?

Nikolas: Why?

Spencer: Because I’d like to be inside it when you tell Ava that Esme and I have moved in.

Scott: Stick with me, kid. They’ll be sorry they tried to railroad you.

ADA Arden: Your honor, this was a premeditated act that required a significant amount of planning. The defendant specifically targeted her friends with the intent to cause harm. The state asks that bail be set at $250,000.

Scott: Your honor, my client is a freshman in college. She’s not Lizzie Borden. She has ties to the community. She is innocent until proven guilty. She should be released without bond.

ADA Arden: If the defendant is released without posting significant bail and has access to a computer, she has the capacity to do significant harm. Who knows who else she’s taped?

Scott: You know, why don’t you save that for your closing statement, if you can get that far?

Judge Young: That will be enough, Mr. Baldwin. Ms. Arden, there is no indication that the defendant poses a threat to the community. Therefore, the defendant is released without bond.

[ Gavel bangs ]

Judge Young: Ms. Robinson, you’re free to go, pending a trial date to be determined.

Bailiff: Court is adjourned.

Portia: Oh, honey, I have never been prouder of you.

Trina: Thanks.

Portia: Good job. Oh!

Curtis: Trina, you were great. You did great.

Ava: May I?

Trina: Thank you so much for coming.

Ava: Oh, Trina, I’m just so proud of you for proclaiming your innocence.

Portia: And now we prove it, whatever it takes.

Trina: You too, Webber.

Cameron: [ Chuckles ]

Brendan: I was in pain, and I wasn’t ready to face my brother’s failings. So I lashed out at you, blamed you for his death.

Alexis: Is that an apology?

Brendan: It is.

Alexis: I wish that I knew about Neil’s addiction. I maybe could have helped. But he hid it from me, so I had no clue.

Brendan: Well, you’ve suffered enough. But look at you now — brand-new career, off the booze, respected, productive member of your community.

Alexis: Well, thank you for the compliment. You were really hostile to me at Neil’s funeral. So what is it with the sudden attitude adjustment?

Brendan: Oh, I’ve had some bad luck myself. Failed marriage, failed business. It’s taught me humility.

Alexis: And the need to make amends?

Brendan: Well, as two people who loved Neil, I hoped we could come to an understanding.

Harmony: I’m sorry, Nina, that nothing can bring back Wiley’s birth mother. But you have to know that Willow loves that little boy like he’s her own flesh and blood. And if you give it some time, maybe she can convince Michael to let you see your grandson.

Nina: How much time? This is the same woman that you told me who doesn’t think that I’m good for Wiley. I remember when she was “Ms. Tait,” and she taught my former stepdaughter Charlotte. I didn’t like her then. I should have trusted my instincts.

Harmony: Willow is highly principled.

Nina: Oh, please. I mean, she tells me that she’s going to help me. And then the next moment, she pulls a 180 and then sides with Michael. She doesn’t have a backbone. She only pretends that she’s compassionate. That “weeping Willow” is no oak.

Harmony: Just because she’s gentle doesn’t mean she’s weak.

Nina: I’m so sorry. I know that she’s your daughter. I’m just frustrated.

Nina: I mean, look how she has treated you, right? She’s barely spoken to you since you got out of prison.

Harmony: Things are much better between us now.

Nina: Oh, until Michael shuts her down. And then what’s gonna happen? She is incapable of standing up to the man or Carly. I’d be better off to ask a stranger for help.

Harmony: Willow is no stranger! And she’s just as strong as her mother!

Nina: No, no, no, no. No, she’s never gonna be as strong as you, Harmony. You’ve overcome a lot, and you turned your life around. Willow would be lucky to have even one drop of your courage.

Harmony: [ Voice breaking ] I’m sorry. I forgot I have an appointment. I have to go.

Sonny: Was that a serious offer? ‘Cause I could use your areas of expertise.

Brick: Oh, I can definitely help with the logistics, business support, definitely cybersecurity. But you’ll need to bring in somebody else as a facilitator.

Sonny: I trust you with my life.

Brick: Trust goes both ways. You know that.

Sonny: So, Jason used to do the day-to-day.

Brick: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: But since he passed, I got to deal with the other families and try to figure out who targeted my stepdaughter.

Brick: You mean the tape of her and her boyfriend?

Sonny: You saw the tape?

Brick: Hell, no. But I saw people seeing it. And I got to tell you, it took every bit of self-control I could muster for me not to take every one of them out. Please tell me you found out who did this.

Sonny: I know who’s responsible. I don’t have proof yet.

Brick: [ Sighs ]

Sonny: But I put them on notice.

Ava: Well, congratulations. You’ve got one courageous client.

Scott: Yeah, tell me about it, but she’s got a big fight ahead. Oh, hey, counselor, get used to the judge seeing things my way.

ADA Arden: Cybercrimes are insidious. The law’s still catching up. The fact is, whatever goes on the internet lives there forever. And your client taped her friends without their knowledge and put it up for the whole world to see.

Scott: Hey, Molly, tell your boss here —

Molly: You can address me as ADA Lansing-Davis.

Scott: Ohh, brother, okay. But y-you don’t really believe that Trina did it.

Molly: I believe that DA Scorpio offered a generous plea bargain. And it was your obligation, as Trina’s attorney, to advise her to take it.

ADA Arden: My associate’s right. You should have taken the deal. But you didn’t, so we’re going to trial. I’m gonna take a stand for everyone who’s ever had an intimate picture or video weaponized against them. Your client may have thought it was no big deal, but she was mistaken. And she’ll go to prison for the full term.

Trina: Thank you for being here, for standing by me.

Josslyn: That’s what friends do.

Trina: You took back the narrative when you told your story to the invader. Your courage made me realize that I don’t need to give in to cyberbullies, to Esme. The world needs to know I’m not the one who hurt you.

Scott: Okay, so, listen, we got to talk strategy.

Portia: Now? I-I mean, is that really necessary? Trina’s already been through so much today.

Scott: That ADA is out for blood.

Curtis: The judge hasn’t even set a trial date yet.

Trina: Honestly, I just want to take a long, hot bath.

Scott: Okay. You can do that. Tomorrow, we got a lot of work to do.

Trina: Thanks.

Curtis: Okay, I noticed that there were reporters outside in the corridor, and they’re gonna want a statement, which I don’t think any of us should be making.

Ava: Oh, I know my way around this courthouse. We can exit this way.

Portia: [ Chuckles ] Let’s go home.

Trina: [ Chuckles ]

Portia: Bye.

Cameron: Joss?

Josslyn: If this were my mom, she would walk out of this courtroom with her head held high.

Cameron: But you’re not your mom, okay? You have nothing to prove.

Josslyn: Yeah, only to myself.

Smoltz: Hey, hold up. Hold up.

Cameron: No, you’re too late. Trina went out the back.

Smoltz: Oh, it’s not Trina Robinson I want, Mr. Webber. It’s you and your girlfriend.

Josslyn: [ Scoffs ] We already told our story to the invader. Read it yourself, if you can afford the paywall.

Smoltz: I did read it.

Cameron: Well, if you did read it, then you would know we have nothing else to say.

Smoltz: I know Alexis Davis stole my scoop and cut me out of the story.

Cameron: Oh, boo-hoo. Life’s unfair.

Smoltz: What — well, what about your friend Trina, huh? Your story did some good. But what about your friend?

Josslyn: What about Trina?

Smoltz: Did she do it? Did she film you two and then post it?

Josslyn: [ Scoffs ]

Cameron: Hell, no.

Smoltz: How can you be so sure? Do you know who’s responsible? Oh, you do know. You just can’t prove it.

Josslyn: What do you want, Mr. Smoltz?

Smoltz: An exclusive. Tell me everything you know, stuff you didn’t say in the interview. And I’ll help you get the goods on whoever set up your friend. Sound good?

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Ava: You! Get the hell away from them!

Portia: Welcome home. [ Chuckles ]

[ Door closes ]

Portia: So, tell me. What do you think?

Trina: I mean, I liked it when it belonged to Joss’s dad. I like it even better now that it’s yours.

[ Both laugh ]

Trina: A safe harbor.

Curtis: Good memories?

Trina: Yeah. I mean, six months ago, our biggest problem was opening a jar of Sonny’s marinara sauce. [ Sighs ] Now everything’s changed.

Curtis: Well, now, you heard what the lawyer said. We’re gonna fight this.

Portia: We’re gonna fight this, and we’re gonna win.

Trina: I told Joss and Cam that their courage gave me courage. But your support helped me out a lot, too.

Curtis: Well, um, we can do a lot more than offer moral support. I could, um, find evidence to exonerate you. I haven’t forgotten how to find clues in dumpsters and garbage cans.

Portia: [ Chuckles ] Let’s just hope that it doesn’t come to that.

Trina: Yeah. I hate to admit it, but Spencer’s right. On one hand, there are tons of people who believe in me.

Curtis: And, uh — and on the other hand?

Trina: There’s evidence that proves I did it. Esme made sure of that.

Nikolas: Ava’s well aware of Sonny’s methods when he feels someone has crossed him or his family. She’ll understand the need to protect Esme.

Spencer: But will she understand why I’m sitting across from her at breakfast? [ Sniffles ]

Nikolas: Yeah. This isn’t a permanent arrangement. You know, if Trina is found guilty, even Sonny will have to accept the verdict and back off.

Spencer: Even if Uncle Sonny does, I don’t think that Ava will, because Ava loves Trina like a daughter, and she would happily throw Esme to the wolves if it means that Trina goes free.

Nikolas: And if Esme is carrying your child? Ava might not like it. She’ll make peace with it.

Spencer: And if Esme isn’t pregnant?

Nikolas: It’s all the more reason for you to find out.

Brick: So little Spencer has a girlfriend.

Sonny: Yeah, he’s not little anymore.

Brick: You always — you’ve always liked this kid.

Sonny: I still do, but not — not his company.

Brick: You’re convinced this Esme Prince is behind the video. Are you sure Spencer didn’t help her?

Sonny: Well, you know, Spencer’s done some terrible things, but he’s known Josslyn since they were in kindergarten.

Brick: Yeah.

Sonny: And, uh, Cameron I-is… part of his extended family, I think his — I think his hands are clean.

Brick: So the girlfriend is operating behind his back.

Sonny: Yeah. If we can prove that Trina is innocent and Esme is — is guilty, it won’t be just justice for Josslyn and Cameron. It will be a way for Spencer… to dump this girlfriend.

Brick: I know you’ve got your own people on it, but as always, if you need me…

Sonny: Yeah, I need you.

Brick: Then I’m on it. But in the meantime…

Sonny: What is on your mind?

Brick: You’re always running around here looking out for everybody else. Who’s looking out for you?

Scott: Ah, hiya, Nina. What do you want? Uh, I-I’m very busy. I got a young woman that needs my help, unlike you.

Nina: Uh, okay, whatever. Listen, I am sorry. I thought we could avoid going to court.

Scott: Oh, you thought you might get, uh, Wiley’s parents, somebody to intercede with them, like Sonny? But he threw you to the wolves, didn’t he?

Nina: No, this has nothing to do with Sonny. It’s just my go-between, she couldn’t really do anything because Willow is so besotted with Michael, she won’t stand up to him or Carly.

Scott: Well, why would she? Her mother couldn’t even stand up to a snake-oil salesman.

Nina: Okay.

Scott: Shiloh.

Nina: Alright, you’re not making this easy for me, are you? So can we just — can we sit down?

Scott: W-why should I? I mean, I kept you out of prison, and you turn your nose up to my legal expertise. So if you want my help now… I-I’m gonna have to hear you say it.

Alexis: I assume this understanding comes at a price?

Brendan: I wouldn’t put it that way.

Alexis: Oh, well, then how would you put it?

Brendan: You couldn’t have risen from the ashes, shall we say, without help. Is it wrong of me to want the same thing?

Alexis: I don’t know. It depends on what you mean by “help.” Forgiveness? Friendship?

Brendan: My brother lost his life by getting involved with a self-destructive alcoholic.

Alexis: There it is. There it is. I was wondering how long you were gonna keep up the “Mr. Nice guy” act. There’s the door. Move toward it and don’t look back.

Brendan: My brother was never a rich man, and funerals are expensive. You can deny it all you want, but you contributed to Neil’s death. You need to make things right.

Alexis: I will never stop wondering what happened to Neil, how he became an addict and how that addiction took his life. And I will tell you, I’m not at all satisfied that that’s the truth. But I will not be browbeaten into paying for his brother’s mistakes. And there’s nothing you can say that’s gonna change my mind.

Brendan: Are you sure about that?

Alexis: You need to leave.

Brendan: I’m not leaving until I get what I want.

Harmony: Oh, Alexis, am I early?

Alexis: No, actually. You’re right on time. Brendan was just leaving.

Harmony: Hey, Harmony miller.

Brendan: Brendan Byrne, Neil’s brother. Harmony miller. Why do I know that name? Have we met before?

Harmony: No, no, I don’t think so. You might have seen me on TV in, uh, connection with an organization called Dawn of Day. I was pretty notorious back then.

Brendan: Well, that must be it.

Alexis: Harmony and I were just leaving, Brendan, so if you don’t mind…

Brendan: Of course. I’ll send you my contact information. If you see an opportunity you think I might be right for, just let me know. Ms. Miller.

Harmony: What was that all about?

Alexis: [ Sighs ] I don’t know, but it was scary.

Sonny: You don’t have to worry about me. I spent all those months in Nixon Falls. If I can survive that, I can survive anything.

Brick: But you weren’t alone.

Sonny: You talking about Nina?

Brick: Uh, yeah. She must be one hell of a lady to come between you and Carly.

Sonny: You still have something for my wife?

Brick: [ Chuckles ] Don’t you mean ex-wife? I just admire your taste. But you gave up Carly. I hope this new lady’s worth it.

Scott: Thank you.

Nina: Okay. You need to hear me say it. [ Clears throat ] [ Lowered voice ] I made a mistake.

Scott: What?

Nina: [ Normal voice ] I made a mistake, okay? Alright, I shouldn’t have pinned all my hopes on Willow’s compassion.

Scott: [ Sighs ]

Nina: Do you feel better?

Scott: You know, maybe you ought to hire Martin Grey. You know, that folksy, down-home charm, I-I-it works with a few judges.

Nina: I don’t need folksy, down-home charm. I need a fighter, a killer that’ll leave his opponents bloody on the field.

Scott: Ohh. That’s me. However, I’m a little busy right now with Trina Robinson.

Nina: Scott, I need your help, and I’m willing to put you on retainer immediately.

Scott: Before I take your money, I need to know that you’re gonna fight for Wiley. No matter what, you’re gonna fight. And if that means kicking Sonny to the curb, then you’re gonna do that.

Portia: What do you think?

Trina: It’s a great room. Thank you.

Portia: I made it up just like your old room. You probably want to get rid of all of those stuffed animals. You’ve probably outgrown them.

Trina: No. No, no, never. But, I mean, I’m still looking forward to returning to my dorms whenever this nightmare ends and I prove my innocence. Then this place will be yours.

Portia: This is your home, too. You hear me? And you don’t have to be brave. We’re all in this together.

Curtis: All of us.

Portia: Come here.

Josslyn: What part of “no way” do you not understand?

Cameron: Just give it up, man.

Ava: [ Scoffs ] A “journalist” like Mr. Smoltz won’t stop until you slam the door in his face — or, better yet, on his writing hand.

Smoltz: Excuse me, Ms. Jerome, haven’t you heard of the First Amendment?

Ava: Yeah, comes right before the Second.

Smoltz: Oh, that sounds like a threat.

Ava: I was hoping it would.

Cameron: Ms. Jerome, Joss and I, we can handle this.

Josslyn: We’re not interested in boosting your career.

Cameron: In other words, get lost.

Smoltz: Fine. Your loss. And your friend Trina’s.

[ Door slams ]

Josslyn: This wasn’t your fight.

Ava: Well, no, on the contrary. Avery would never forgive me if I didn’t stand up for her sister.

Cameron: That guy had one thing right. Trina’s in deep trouble until we can prove she’s innocent.

Josslyn: And Esme’s guilty.

Esme: I just got an alert on my phone. Trina pled not guilty.

Spencer: I hope she can prove it.

Esme: Even if she tries to accuse me instead? When I might be carrying your child?

Spencer: Let’s find out. Why haven’t you taken that home pregnancy test yet?

Esme: I’m scared, okay?

Spencer: I get it, Esme. But are you scared that you’re pregnant or that you’re not?

Harmony: I assume Brendan was here talking about his brother. Is that what caused all the tension when I walked in?

Alexis: That was really weird. He shows up all sympathetic, not at all like the guy that heaped all this abuse on me at Neil’s funeral.

Harmony: Has something changed?

Alexis: Yeah, he thought this “Mr. Nice guy” act would convince me to help bail him out of his troubles. And when I refused, he went from Jekyll to Hyde. He thinks I owe him for causing Neil’s relapse that caused his death.

Harmony: Well [Sighs] It was a good thing that I walked in when I did. Just stay away from Neil’s brother. The farther the better, Alexis.

Ava: Don’t lose any sleep over Esme. The truth will come out, and Trina will be vindicated.

Cameron: You sound confident.

Josslyn: Yeah, Esme has skated so far, Ava.

Ava: I have spoken to someone who has an interest in seeing that Esme is punished for targeting the two of you.

Cameron: And who’s that?

Ava: I know it’s difficult for you to trust me. This time, you’re gonna have to. Esme is gonna get what’s coming to her.

Esme: I want you with me when I take the test. But I don’t need a test to tell me what I really want.

Spencer: Which is?

Esme: You. I want to be with you. But do you want to be with me?

Spencer: Esme —

Esme: N-no, no. Don’t answer that now. Just ask yourself this. With or without the baby, does my being here work to your advantage?

Spencer: How?

Esme: By driving a wedge between your father and Ava. I mean, isn’t that what you wanted all along?

Sonny: I’m taking it day to day, my friend.

Brick: Hm.

Sonny: Uh, as far as me and Nina, I can’t read into the future. But I will say this. [ Sighs ] That the connection we had in Nixon Falls… …was real.

Brick: Sonny, I know you. When you want something, you go for it and you usually get it.

🎵 But peace, peace, peace / and loyalty is needed

Nina: Oh. [ Laughs ]

Brick: You’re thinking about her right now, aren’t you?

Sonny: Can we get back to the matter at hand?

Brick: Ah, the future. [ Sighs ] Without Jason. That’s something we can work on. But a future without love, with all due respect, my brother, that’s not for you.

Nina: Sonny knows that I am not gonna force him to pick sides.

Scott: Yeah, but, uh, Carly and Michael and Willow will. So if Sonny has to choose…

Nina: He’s gonna do what’s best for his family. And I’m going to do what’s best for mine.

Scott: Are you willing to lose lover boy?

Nina: I won’t lose him if he’s the man that I knew at Nixon Falls and the man that I see in Port Charles.

Scott: What makes you think that you can just have it all?

Nina: I’m gonna have my grandson in my life, Scott, and I’m going to have the man that changed my life for the better.

Scott: Well, I’m sorry, but nobody gets it all. Nobody.

Nina: There’s always a first.

Sonny: Let’s, um, regroup after Jason’s memorial service. In the meantime, are you willing to take on more managerial responsibilities?

Brick: I’ll head the search for the facilitator to take on some of Jason’s other skill sets. Don’t worry about that.

Sonny: Okay. I got one more job for you.

Brick: Yeah.

Sonny: I want you to find out how Esme prince engineered that video.

Brick: I’m on that. No problem.

Sonny: Alright, you want a drink to seal the deal? Sparkling water.

Brick: [ Chuckles ] And to think I thought I always admired you, Sonny.

Sonny: Not anymore?

Brick: More than ever.

[ Glasses clink ]

Scott: Michael is out to win, okay? And Diane Miller, she’s a tough cookie. She will dig up whatever she can.

Nina: I understand.

Scott: Okay, then is there anything I need to know before I file this petition?

Nina: No, I mean, don’t faint, but I think my life is pretty much an open book at this point.

Scott: Really? No little secrets in your diary, skeletons in the closet?

Nina: No. I mean, Wiley is the only thing left of my daughter in this world. And I owe it to Nelle to be in his life. Whether Michael or saint Willow like it or not.

Scott: Okay, then hang your hat with me. You won’t regret it.

Nina: I hope not.

Alexis: Anyway, you never did say what brought you by.

Harmony: Oh, it’s nothing important. It can wait. You know what? I’m gonna cook dinner for you tonight. I’m gonna make something soothing.

Alexis: Good. I can use something soothing. Having his brother here reminds me how horrible Neil’s death was. And I-I really can’t help wonder if that addiction is the thing that caused his death. Ah, shoot. I forgot my phone.

Brendan: I knew that name was familiar.

Trina: It’s one thing to plead not guilty, but now I have to live with that decision. That ADA is obviously out to get me. I couldn’t believe what she said — $250,000 bail.

Curtis: Um, well, honey, I do believe that she was just grandstanding. You know. Uh, the judge ignored her recommendation.

Trina: This time, but she thinks I’m guilty. And Scott said she’s out for blood. What if she convinces the jury that I am guilty?

Portia: That’s not going to happen. And instead of dwelling on it, why don’t you go on upstairs and take that nice long, hot bath that you were talking about earlier? It’ll make you feel better.

Trina: Okay. You talked me into it.

Portia: [ Chuckles ] Good. [ Voice breaking ] I don’t know how long I can keep this up. What if Trina’s right? We have no idea what’s gonna happen. I don’t know what I’m gonna do.

Curtis: Trina has a lot of people by her side, okay? And that daughter of yours, she has more courage than anyone I know.

Portia: And I don’t disagree with you. I-I-I do. I have faith in my daughter. Just not in the world.

Curtis: Baby…

Portia: [ Sniffles ]

Curtis: …As long as we have faith in each other, we can’t lose.

Cameron: Ready to go home?

Josslyn: Actually, I think I want to go back to the dorm. What?

Cameron: It’s just Trina isn’t the only one being brave.

Josslyn: Oh, I’m not being brave. I just want things to go back to normal, if that’s even possible.

Cameron: And I will try to help make that happen.

Josslyn: Thank you.

Cameron: Come on, let’s go.

Josslyn: Actually, can we go out the front?

Cameron: Are you sure?

Josslyn: Yeah. I mean, if I can face a bunch of people on campus, I can face a couple reporters outside. It’s hard to believe that Trina’s gonna come back here and fight for her innocence.

Cameron: It doesn’t matter what Ava says. This is going to be tough.

Josslyn: Yeah, which is why we need to help Trina. We — we need to help find a piece of evidence that Esme framed her.

Cameron: Okay, but how do we pull that off?

Josslyn: [ Sighs ] By proving that Esme can be in two places at once. Well, come on. [ Sighs ]

Ava: Nikolas, my sweet! Where are you?

Esme: He’s upstairs.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Female child (to Brook Lynn): How’s your baby?

Finn (to Elizabeth): I’m right here, by your side, no matter what happens.

Gregory (to Chase): So good to see you, son.

Brad (to Terry): And I was just hoping that … you might still believe in second chances.

Britt (to Selina): And why would I do that?

Ava (to Nikolas): What’s it gonna be?

Spencer (to Esme): It’s time to take that pregnancy test.

Sheila: I tried, steffy. I really did.

Steffy: Let go of me.

Sheila: No. You let go of the idea that you have any say in this. You think I’m not welcome? You think I’m not going to have a place in my son’s life? My grandson’s? You think again.

Taylor: Thomas… I wish he’d ease up a bit.

Ridge: Honestly, I like the fact that our kids don’t hide their feelings.

Taylor: You do?

Ridge: Yeah.

Taylor: Hey, you know, they’re– they’re going to be fine, no matter what happens. You shouldn’t let any of that influence you. Their happiness doesn’t hinge on us being a couple.

Ridge: I like to pretend that it does.

Taylor: Oh, they’re just trying to heal the past. That’s all. I just– I wish thomas would focus on his future and maybe his own love life and stop focusing on ours.

Ridge: You mean like steffy.

[ Taylor chuckles ] Because she’s got the house and… husband, beautiful kids, and a lot of work here, but still finds time to meddle in our lives.

Taylor: I’m so proud of her.

Ridge: You’re proud of her for meddling?

[ Taylor chuckles ]

Taylor: No, for who she’s become. I mean, she has accomplished so much… not just here at forrester, but in her– in her life, in her– in her family. I was worried about her for a long time, ridge. She was stuck in that cycle with liam. The same one she watched growing up with me and you for so long. Still watching–

Ridge: Here we go.

Taylor: Well, it’s true. It sticks. She watched it as a little girl and then she got into it. The same thing with liam. I’m not worried about her anymore. She found finn.

Ridge: I– I couldn’t have found a better husband for her. You know, he’s perfect. Almost perfect, if it weren’t for his mother.

Finn: Come on, steffy, text me back. Il giardino? What are you doing there?

Nurse: Hey, finn, finally discharged the broken ankle. He swears he’ll never ski again.

Finn: Is– is dr. Becker still on?

Nurse: Yeah, scheduled all night.

Finn: Okay, just give him my apologies, but I need him to cover me for a while.

Nurse: What?

Finn: It’s important, okay? I’ll come back as soon as I can.

Taylor: Finn can’t choose where he came from. You know, sheila– sheila gave birth to him, she isn’t his mom, like li is.

Ridge: I know. Doesn’t make it any less disturbing that she likes to hang out and spend time with finn. And spend time with our grandson.

Taylor: I understand that. But if, you know, she truly changed,

Ridge: What do you– what do you– what? “If she truly changed,” you really believe that?

Taylor: You know, I– yes– no. But I’d like to. For finn’s sake.

Ridge: Okay, now it all makes sense. That’s why you invited her over for christmas eve. Well, no, I did that for finn, I just…

[ Sighs ] You know. I’m cautious any time we have interaction, my guard is always up. I can promise you that.

Ridge: All right. Because this– this reformed sheila, it’s not a real thing. She’s incapable of being a good person, she’s incapable of being a normal person. She’s as dangerous now as she’s always been.

Steffy: I– I don’t want to fight with you, sheila.

Sheila: No. Me neither, I– I don’t want anyone to get hurt. You know what I want? I want my son’s wife to accept me. To love me. Allow me in, please.

Steffy: Never!

Sheila: Steffy.

Steffy: No, you’re never going to be accepted. Never loved. Not by me. And certainly not by finn. Not anymore. Hi, my name is cherrie.

Ridge: You said you have these communications with sheila. How often does that happen?

Taylor: Well, that’s the thing, ridge, she’s– she just– she just shows up at my office, unannounced, and– and she wants to talk.

Ridge: She shows up at your office and she wants to talk. About what? What are you– she must have an ulterior motive. She must have something like that, right?

Taylor: See, that’s the thing. I don’t know, ridge. I– I know that she seems really happy about us, about the possibility of you and I getting back together.

Ridge: Stop. Wait, wait, wait. She seemed happy?

Taylor: No, she–

Ridge: Sheila doesn’t seem happy about anything because she’s a mean, nasty woman. She’s selfish.

Taylor: What could it be? Could– could sheila benefit from us being together for any reason? No, right? So what is it? So I’m thinking, and I was– maybe it’s because she shot me, and maybe she feels guilty and…. it’s absolving her guilt from–

Ridge: Why don’t you listen to anything I say? Why?

Taylor: What are you– I’m listening.

Ridge: She’s not- she’s not– she doesn’t feel guilt for anything. She likes causing pain. You know this. She thrives on it.

Taylor: She does, and she did. But she wants to change. And, you know, I’m a psychiatrist. It’s what I do. So I want to see people change. I believe that people can, ridge.

Ridge: I know.

Taylor: I mean, even sheila.

Ridge: You believe in a lot of things, don’t you? And you should. Maybe… unicorns and… gold at the end of the rainbow. I like it, but when you believe in sheila, you got to be very, very careful, you got to promise me that.

Taylor: I promise, ridge. But not around unicorns–

Ridge: Can we just be serious for a second?

Taylor: I am serious. Unicorns are harmless.

Ridge: It’s not a joke!

Taylor: I’m not trying to make a joke about it, ridge. I know that sheila is dangerous. I know better than anyone, okay? I know firsthand what she’s capable of. Not only that, but she’s finn’s birth mother. We share a grandson. I’m on high alert.

Finn: Il giardino? Why won’t you text me back?

Sheila: I’ve disappointed

you enough, son.

And I promise, you are never

going to hear anything

about me that would

let you down again.

Steffy: Brooke’s new year’s

eve, the booze, kissing deacon,

inviting deacon into

my father’s bed?

That was all set in

motion by your mother.

Finn: You’re evil, mom. You’re never going to change. Getting brooke drunk. You just better stay away from my wife.

Sheila: You know I can’t let you say anything–

Steffy: No, don’t you dare. Don’t you take one more step!

Sheila: You need to know what happened. What I did to brooke.

Steffy: Finn already knows.

Sheila: Then I’ll just explain it to him.

Steffy: You don’t have to explain it to him, you’re never going to see him again.

Sheila: We can keep this between us, just the few of us that know, we can put this behind us. Let your parents get back together again. If you feel like we need to say something later down the line, then fine. After taylor and ridge are married and brooke has moved on. We’ll just wait.

Steffy: No, I’m– I’m not letting my parents start a life together based on a lie.

Sheila: Would you stop being so high and mighty? Just think about what you’re going to be giving up. I did this for you… for your family. This is the best chance that you have.

Steffy: No, you’re a liar. You did this for yourself. You did this because brooke put her foot down about hayes being in your life.

Sheila: Well, that was just an added bonus. But what difference does it make? Because the outcome is the same. Ridge left brooke for your mother.

Steffy: And I’m supposed to be thanking you? You psychopath, you set this all in motion. You know who I should be thanking? Brooke. Who stood up to you!

Sheila: Whoa, whoa, whoa, now all of a sudden you’re team brooke?

Steffy: I’m on anyone’s team but yours. Anyone who’s willing to join me to get you away from finn and my son!

Sheila: The losing team. No one… is ever going to keep me away from finn and hayes. Not even you… steffy.

Why hide your skin if dupixent

Taylor: You know, I’m sure it bothers steffy on some level. Finn.. being a part of sheila, sheila being a part of hayes’ life.

Ridge: I’m not– you know, I know she thought about walking away from it. And nobody would have blamed her. But she didn’t, because she sees finn for who he is. You said before, he’s not just his dna, he’s a good guy.

Taylor: He really is a good guy. And I’m just so happy. Steffy– steffy’s so fulfilled, you know? With everything. I’m just– I’m so happy for her.

Ridge: So am I.

Taylor: You know what, I– I actually– I think it’s just going to get better and better. I can see it, ridge, I– I do. She has this great career. She has a great business partner. She has a– a loving family, her children are wonderful and– and she and finn, oh, they’re such a great team together. They really are. A doctor and a fashion designer? What a great match.

[ Laughs ]

Ridge: Okay.

Taylor: I’m just so happy. I mean, this is everything I’ve ever wanted for her, ridge. Everything.

Steffy: I feel bad for finn. He thought this was all a misunderstanding, that I was wrong about you. But once he hears what you’ve been saying… how you’ve been talking to me, he’s going to hate you as much as I do.

Sheila: Why? Why do you have to fight me? Why can’t you just accept me and care for me the way I want–

Steffy: I don’t want anything to do with you, sheila! Knowing that you’re thinking about me, my family, that is my worst nightmare. You– you’re– you’re sick. You’re unhinged. You shot my mother. Maybe she can forgive you, but I can’T. Now, you need to stay away from us. You should be behind bars.

Sheila: I served my time.

Steffy: It didn’t do you any good. You didn’t come out a better person. You just fell back into your old ways. You hurt people to get what you want. You hurt brooke to have access to finn and hayes. Access you’re never going to have.

Sheila: Because you say so?

Steffy: That’s right. Finn is my husband, hayes is my son, I’m in control.

Steffy: So know when to give up.

Sheila: Never.

Steffy: Everyone’s going to know what you did, sheila. Everyone’s going to know the truth.

Sheila: Oh, it’s not going to happen. Steffy, I can stop you.

Steffy: From going to my father? Not a chance.

Sheila: I will… if I have to. You know what it’s like, you’re a mother, you’d do the same. Finn means everything to me. I love him more than life itself. You’d do it. You do anything in your power to protect that relationship with your child.

Steffy: That’s what you don’t get, sheila. You don’t have a relationship. Not with finn. Not with hayes. You’re never gonna see them again.

[ Echoing ] You’ll never see

them again. Never.

You’ll never see them again.

Again.

Never again.

Never.

[ Gunshot ]

Sheila: No! No! When tough pain hits,

Ridge: You talked about steffy having a good business partner in me, but the truth is, she is ready to run this company on her own.

Taylor: Oh, come on, like– you and your dad will be roaming these halls ’til the day you die.

Ridge: Maybe even after. I mean, why not? My mom’s got the house covered. Maybe we should be haunting these– these little hallways here.

Taylor: Yeah, you’re good at ghosting. So…

Ridge: Oh, here we go again.

Taylor: What? My point is this. It’s time for steffy to take over. I know she can do it. It’s a nice feeling. She is one hell of a leader.

Taylor: Yeah, she’s– she’s one hell of a woman, isn’t she? She has the strongest spirit. She really does. She’s gone through so much and she– she always rises to the top. Never fails. I am– I am just so proud of her and for the life that she’s creating. Our girl, our girl, her future is so bright.

Ridge: I can’t wait to see what she does next.

Steffy: Finn! Finn! Oh, my god! Oh my god! There’s so much blood! Finn! Oh my god!

Sheila: God, what’ve I done?

Steffy: Finn, talk to me, please talk to me.

Sheila: I didn’t see him. I didn’t know he was here.

Steffy: God, finn, can you hear me, please? Please, finn! Finn! Finn, ple– please, breathe, baby, breathe. Breathe. Oh, god, please, please, breath.

[ Finn gasping ] Oh! Oh! Oh, oh, baby. Oh, my god. Finn! Finn! I’m gonna get you help, okay?

Finn: What– what happened?

Steffy: I’m gonna get you help.

[ Finn mumbles ]

Steffy: Oh, god, oh, god. You need to call for help, sheila! You need to call now!

Finn: Stay here with me. Just be– stay here with me.

Steffy: Hang in there, okay? Hang in there. We got you. We got you, okay? I got you.

Finn: I love you.

Steffy: Baby, I love you. You’re gonna get through this. Okay? You’re gonna get through this. So blessed to have… to have you… and make sure… make sure hayes…

[ Breathless mumbling ] Our life is… I love– I love you, steffy. I’ll always, always-

Steffy: I love you.

Finn: I’m gonna love you for–

Steffy: No, no, no! No, finn! No! No, no, no, no, no, finn! No, no, finn, no, no. I need you. I need you. Hayes needs you, he needs his daddy! No! No!

[ Steffy sobbing ]

Sheila: Finn, baby!

Steffy: Your only son.

Sheila: I didn’t know– I didn’t know he was here.

Steffy: You were going to kill me. You’re a monster! You’re going to prison for the rest of life.

Sheila: You put your phone down.

[ Key tapping ] Put the phone down! Don’t do it, steffy. Don’t you dare!

[ Steffy sobbing ] Because this is my secret.

SORRY, THE ENDING IS MISSING; WE’LL HAVE TO PUT IT UP NEXT WEEK

Victor: No, thank you, I know this menu by heart. Thank you. So this is my treat. It’s the least I can do for the hardships you must have endured in that peruvian prison.

Lauren: The very least.

Michael: I intend on taking full advantage of this, considering the fact that i haven’t had a decent meal in weeks.

Lauren: Oh, the lobster enchiladas look good. Why don’t we start with those and a bottle of society’s best wine and work our way through the menu.

Victor: That’s a wonderful idea.

Michael: [ Chuckles ]

Victor: Let’s go for it. Be my guest.

Lauren: And all the wine in the world is not gonna erase the fact that michael’s life was in danger and you, my friend, weren’t honest with me.

Victor: Now, your continued loyalty will be very well rewarded, okay?

Lauren: Unh-unh — continued?

[ Chuckles ] No. No, no, no. Good luck finding his replacement.

Michael: Victor didn’t have me locked up. That was ashland. He’s giving me a very personal reason to bring him down. I’m not walking away from this fight. Not now.

Lily: Two coffees, please. Thank you.

Billy: Hey.

Lily: Hey.

Billy: Are you worried that you’re with a man that can’t keep a secret?

Lily: You can keep a secret.

Billy: Yeah, well, I’m having a really hard time with this one.

Lily: Okay, then tell me.

Billy: This really needs to stay between us for now.

Lily: Okay. [ Chuckles ] What’s up?

Billy: You know we always thought ashland locke was a back-stabbing piece of trash?

Lily: Yeah.

Billy: Well, it turns out he’s worse than that.

Lily: How is that possible? I mean, he stood by while his best friend died and lived under his name for decades and stole an inheritance and lied and cheated his way through most business deals.

Billy: And do you remember how he had cancer and went to peru for a miracle treatment?

Lily: Yeah.

Billy: He lied about it all.

Lily: Which part?

Billy: All of it. He never had cancer. Didn’t go get a cure. He was never sick in the first place.

Lily: Wait, are you saying that he pretended that he had cancer?

Ashland: [ Sighs ]

Victoria: I will be ready to go to tuscany as soon as I tie up a few loose ends.

Ashland: Yeah, you do realize that there’s nothing you can’t do from cruising altitude, right?

Victoria: [ Chuckles ] Yes, but it won’t take me long.

Ashland: Well, how can i help?

Victoria: You know how you could help? You could run home and you could throw a few of our things in a bag and make sure that everything’s locked up tight, and maybe you could stop off and get us some food for the flight. You wouldn’t mind running by society, would you?

Ashland: Why do I get the feeling you’re trying to get rid of me?

Victoria: [ Laughs ] No, not at all.

Ashland: Well, then there must be something I can do around here to lighten the load.

Victoria: I have everything under control. I’ll be ready before you know it.

Ashland: Music to my ears. You know what else I love the sound of?

Victoria: What?

Ashland: You telling me that you love me and that we’re okay.

Sally: Okay. Tell me where the fire is, and we will put it out together. What is the latest in the sordid tale of princess victoria and the big, bad wolf?

Adam: I would not know. My father hasn’t said anything to me since victoria’s ill-fated intervention. My family only wants me around when I can be useful, and when they have decided they don’t need me anymore, I’m left out in the cold.

Sally: Or maybe there’s just nothing new to report.

Adam: Mm, possibly. But I am naturally suspicious when it comes to the newmans, especially my dad. You’ll pick up on all the subtleties as you spend more time with us.

Sally: [ Chuckles ] Hate to break it to you, but there is nothing subtle about you and your dad’s unique dynamic.

Lily: God, why would ashland make up such a horrible story?

Billy: Because he assumed correctly that if he told everyone he was dying from cancer, he would seem harmless and vulnerable. Not the kind of guy that was about to steal his new wife’s corporation.

Lily: So he was just lying about everything — the doctor appointments, the chemo side effects.

Billy: All of it.

Lily: My god, it’s — what an insult to anyone who has had cancer or loves someone who’s survived it.

Billy: Yeah. He’s a bad man.

Lily: I can’t even imagine how victoria must be feeling.

Billy: Well, that’s the thing, neither can I.

Lily: What do you mean?

Billy: [ Sighs ] When she was telling me about ashland, she was very hurt and furious, and I thought the next time that they were face-to-face she was gonna rip him to shreds.

Lily: Well, what changed your mind?

Billy: When they did have that conversation, there was no fighting, nothing. It ended in hugs and kisses. He has a way of getting to her. Maybe I can get answers from them.

Nikki: Oh.

Billy: Is there any word from victoria?

Lily: Billy told me what’s going on.

Nikki: I assumed that he would. I know you understand.

Lily: Don’t worry, I won’t say a word, although I do have some choice ones for locke.

Billy: Look, I don’t want to butt in, I just want to hear that victoria’s doing the right thing and she told ashland exactly how she feels about him. Do not tell me that she is forgiving that son of a bitch.

Jack: Who the hell are you?

Taylor: You know me, jack. You know exactly who I am.

Jack: Were you part of this?

Allie: I don’t even know what

this is. Wait, I don’t understand — you guys know each other? Taylor, is this why you bought my —

Jack: Her name isn’t taylor. Her name is diane jenkins, and she shouldn’t be here. That woman died. That woman was buried. And believe it or not, she was mourned.

Additional sponsorship

provided by…

Taylor: It’s good to see you again, jack. I’ve…I’ve imagined this moment for a very long time.

Allie: You — what do you mean, jack, she was dead?

Taylor: And it was true in a way. A huge part of me died in genoa city. I was so lost and so desperate, and all this anger and hatred directed towards me.

Jack: And you had nothing to do with that. You were just an innocent bystander, right?

Taylor: It was the darkest time in my life, and, yes, it was my doing. I just had this vision of escaping, of starting over, only none of it went as I planned, and it — it took me a very long time to come to terms with how i failed.

Jack: You left nothing but destruction behind. Anger. And upset. All you could think about was yourself.

Taylor: No, that’s not true. If you knew how much I thought about you and kyle —

Allie: No, stop, stop it. I don’t know what you dragged me into — fake names and deaths.

Jack: Allie, allie, look at me. Look at me. Forget you ever met this woman. Wipe her out of your mind. She is nothing but vengeful and vicious, and her fight is with me.

Taylor: Jack, I didn’t bring you here for a fight. I did all this so I could explain, so I could — so i could show you how sorry I am for all the pain I caused.

Allie: No, you lied to me. You came into my father’s house with a fake name, acting — acting like some guardian angel, trying to give me advice. My father died, and you waited to exploit him and me?

Jack: It’s all she knows. It’s who she is to her core. Everything she does is for her benefit. There is no forgiveness, diane. There is no understanding, and if you thought otherwise, that was your mistake.

Lauren: I’m sorry, michael, but did or did you not just finish telling me how dangerous locke was and that he’s capable of anything? And based on everything that you’ve said, he’s still a threat to us.

Victor: No, I promise both of you that neither one of you will be in danger, okay?

Lauren: Well, no offense, but your protection did not keep michael safe in peru or bring him home. He had to rescue himself.

Victor: Lauren, I’m very sorry my team didn’t get to him first, but they were awfully close.

Michael: As prisons go, I’ve been in worse, so…

Lauren: [ Chuckles ] So not amused.

Michael: Yeah, I could tell because that’s — that’s her “that’s not funny” face.

Lauren: Yeah, this — this comes with a side of “don’t even think about going in for a second serving of locke.”

Victor: I want to rest assured that michael’s next assignment will not require him to leave this zip code.

Michael: Totally local?

Victor: Yeah, right here in genoa city.

Michael: Okay. What is it?

Victor: I need you to take a close look at the locke/newman enterprises merger contract. I want you to find any loophole, any clause that allows us to kick that bastard to the curb.

Michael: Alright, but before I start, I need to know something. Where do things stand between victoria and her husband?

Victoria: We’re fine.

[ Sighs ] We’re fantastic, even. But we might not be if we don’t get on that jet.

Ashland: Not the most enthusiastic response, but I’ll take it.

Victoria: Let’s make a pact. I believe you and you believe me.

Ashland: You know I do.

Victoria: Then trust me when I say this is all gonna work out.

Ashland: Okay. I think italy is gonna be great for us, and I cannot wait to get you there alone all to myself. And who knows? Maybe we’ll just never come back.

[ Exhales sharply ] If you have advanced non-small cell lung cancer,

Nick: I wish I could tell everybody what they want to hear, but victoria’s being very tight-lipped about what she’s gonna do about ashland.

Nikki: We do know she’s determined to do it on her own.

Billy: Well, I really hope this plan is legit because, from what we saw, it was not the messy break-up I was expecting.

Nikki: I think victoria needs to take some time to come to terms with who ashland really is.

Nick: We don’t have time for that. We have to get this guy out of her life immediately.

Billy: I agree with nick. She may not be thinking logically.

Lily: Victoria makes tough decisions every day. I think she can handle this.

Nikki: Lily’s right. This is victoria’s problem to solve. She doesn’t need any of us hovering around her. It’s in her hands now.

Adam: My dynamics with my father lack subtlety? Ouch.

Sally: [ Chuckles ] Okay, let’s just put that aside for a second. Focus less on the parent and more on the parent company.

Adam: Um…that is all I’ve been able to think about ever since we last discussed this. There is going to be consequences for newman/locke, given what ashland did. Especially if victoria stands by him.

Sally: Well, no one could’ve seen this coming, at least not so soon after the marriage the merger. It leaves the whole company on shaky ground. But do you know what this calls for?

Adam: A strong leader, because there’s definitely gonna be a change at the top.

Sally: And it could be you if you play your cards right.

Adam: And if that happens, you will be right there with me.

Sally: Good. ‘Cause I like it here.

Adam: Well, you’re creative. Always think five steps ahead.

Sally: Well, if we’re gonna pull this off, we have to be proactive.

Adam: You mean buck the family tradition of letting victoria spiral out of control and drag the company down with her?

Sally: Even if you don’t know what’s going on in the inner sanctum, that shouldn’t stop you from making moves.

Adam: Well, nothing can. And no one will. Okay? I’m beginning to see this whole thing very clearly.

Sally: Hmm. Well, what will you do first?

Adam: Reach out to my father, because if I want to be in the loop, I need to put myself there. And I need to make plan of my own.

Sally: Well, I already know that it’s going to be incredible.

Taylor: I was that person. I did those things, all of those mistakes, but that is not who i am now.

Jack: Those weren’t mistakes. You know damn well everything you did you did on purpose. I can’t believe you can stand there and try to explain yourself.

Taylor: I know it’s a lot to take in, jack.

Jack: All you left behind was damage. At least when you were dead, i knew you couldn’t hurt anyone ever again.

Taylor: [ Scoffs ]

Jack: Now you’re back, and, what, you’re dragging my granddaughter into this?

Taylor: I reached out to allie for you. I made this possible. Jack, I gave you back a piece of your heart, a piece of keemo.

Allie: Oh, my god. It’s like I’m not even here. You got what you wanted, which was to hand me over like some sort of prize.

Taylor: No, a gift. A gift for both of you.

Allie: He’s right. You are evil. I don’t know you, and I don’t want any part of this.

Jack: Wait, wait, allie.

Taylor: Allie, please. Please, please. I’m sorry I deceived you. But jack is such a good man. Please don’t take this out on him. Please don’t lose what you just found. P–

[ Exhales sharply ]

Jack: You are and have always been poison. Why give your family just any eggs

Nikki: Alright, I have to run. Please contact me if you hear anything.

Nick: You have my word.

Nikki: Thanks. Good to see you, lily.

Lily: You too.

Nikki: Billy.

Nick: So what are you thinking?

Billy: You want the legal thoughts or the illegal thoughts?

Lily: He’s — he’s kidding. There’s nothing illegal.

Billy: How the hell do we stop ashland? How do we stop victoria from going back to him?

Nick: Listen, billy, nobody in our family has been able to get victoria to see reason. So, against my better judgment, I think our best plan of attack here is to turn to you.

Billy: Me? Why?

Nick: I hate admitting it, but I think you’re the best person to try and get through to her. So would you consider having a conversation with her?

Billy: Your father would love that, huh? Billy boy abbott the screw-up saving the day.

Nick: You can gloat all you want once victoria is safe. I only care about her safety, so if you do this favor for me, i promise you I will never, ever forget it.

Victor: By the way, victoria is fully aware of everything that ashland locke has done.

Lauren: Oh, then where are the sirens and the helicopters? Because if he had tried that with me…

Victor: She claims she has a plan of her own to deal with him.

Lauren: You sound skeptical.

Victor: For good reason. She didn’t explain to us what her plan was. She asked us to just trust her.

Michael: Sounds like you’re not quite ready to do that.

Victor: What you’ve got to know is that, tragically and sadly, my daughter is very much in love with that bastard, okay? He has a strong hold on her.

Lauren: Then you’re not going to leave it entirely in victoria’s hands, right?

Victor: No. Ashland locke needs to be dealt with swiftly and severely.

Michael: It’s the only way.

Lauren: [ Sighs ] Looks like we’re gonna need another bottle of wine.

Jack: Thank you for agreeing to meet me. If you wanted to cut me completely out of your life, i wouldn’t blame you. Listen. Diane was aiming for me, and you got caught in the crossfire.

Allie: You know that I had no idea, right? I didn’t know who she was or — or what she wanted. I mean, taylor — diane was just this nice woman who — who bought my father’s house and then gave me advice.

[ Scoffs ] She seemed kind and understanding. I have never thought of myself as dumb or —

Jack: Wait, wait, wait, don’t let her undermine your self-confidence. She has conned older and supposedly wiser people than you.

Allie: What did you both mean you thought she was dead?

Jack: Actually dead. Complete with memorial service, with her young son grieving in the front pew. Where people who knew who and what diane was tried, for his sake, to find something kind to say about a woman they knew was pure destruction.

Allie: [ Sighs ] That’s awful. To turn your back on your son and then just — just walk away. How do you even know this woman?

Jack: The child she walked away from was our son. What’s the #1 retinol brand

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Allie: That woman is your wife?

Jack: Diane and I were never married. When I say it’s complicated, you have no idea, but kyle was — kyle is one of the greatest gifts of my life, and to see him struggle, to see him in pain, to see him grieving with confusion…

Allie: When did this happen?

Jack: He was just a kid. He’s a man now. He’s a husband, a father, but a wound like that —

Allie: I bet it never goes away.

Jack: No, it never goes away.

Allie: All these years, he thought she was dead.

Jack: Not just dead, murdered in gruesome fashion. All of her lies exposed, people kyle cared about implicated, and it was all a lie. And I defended her. How many times did I tell him, “your mother loved you more than anything”? What kind of mother lets her child suffer like that?

Michael: Oh, andy, more wine.

Lauren: Are you trying to get me drunk?

Michael: The thought has crossed my mind.

Lauren: [ Chuckles ] Well, victor certainly knows how to spoil someone after inflicting untold damage, pain, and worry. It doesn’t matter how many bottles of wine we have, I am not gonna change my mind about you working for him.

Michael: What if I tried one of my tried-and-true methods of convincing you to make a 180 by sweeping you off your feet and dancing with you until you feel better about me staying on?

Lauren: No, no, no, no, you are not gonna litigate your way through this. You have no idea how hard that was for me. Not being able to talk to you, to not know if you were okay.

Michael: I’m so sorry.

Lauren: You’re gonna spend the rest of your life making that up to me.

Michael: Absolutely. And I’m fine. I’m home safe.

Lauren: Yes, and I want you to stay that way. Do you remember why you decided to leave the da’s office? Because you wanted to enjoy the fruits of your labor. You wanted to spend more time together.

Michael: I intend to make up for every moment we have been kept apart. I will be so annoyingly attentive that you will be begging, you will be begging for a restraining order.

Lauren: That is impossible.

[ Chuckles ]

Michael: A challenge — i like that. But for now…I need to see this through.

Lauren: For victor.

Michael: For me. Ashland locke is the person who kept us apart. Ashland locke is the person who made you worry, and it’s time someone held him accountable.

Lauren: But why does it have to be you?

Michael: When I was locked away and wasn’t sure how things would turn out, I thought of three things — coming home to my gorgeous wife, celebrating with my family, and seeing to it that locke reaps everything he’s sown.

Billy: I am as worried about victoria as you are, but I’m not the right guy. I talked to her about ashland already. You were standing right there. She walked away from both of us.

Nick: But before that, when you two were alone, you said that she had opened up to you, that she talked about ashland and what he had done to her and how hurt she was.

Billy: Yeah, and I just don’t think that there’s anything else that I can say to push her in the right direction.

Nick: Billy, the fact that she confided in you is very significant. She hasn’t shared her anger about locke to anyone in the family. She showed a lot of faith in you. She might be more open to what you have to say to her.

Lily: I think nikki was right when she said to let victoria take the lead. I mean, this is her fight.

Nick: I get your concerns, lily, but time is of the essence here. And I still think you are our best shot. So what do you say? Will you talk to victoria, just one last time?

Adam: I have a vision for newman/locke that I think will surprise all my detractors. Dad.

Victor: I want to bring you up to date about what’s going on, okay?& I’m sure your coo wouldn’t mind giving us some privacy.

Adam: Oh, that actually won’t be necessary. I’ve told her everything.

Victor: Son, this is none of her business. It’s about family.

Adam: Well, it’s about both, actually.& Victoria’s choice in men affects newman media.

Victor: Alright, you can stay.

Adam: So what is the latest?

Victor: Well, victoria claims she knows how to handle things and she has a plan.

Adam: Has she told you what this mysterious plan is?

Victor: No, not exactly.

Adam: I mean, you don’t believe her, do you? I mean, I didn’t realize that billy was pretending to be a lush, and she wanted me fired. Now she’s gonna put the whole future of the company at risk, and what are we supposed to do, just sit by and let her bury us deeper?

Victor: This company is as important to her as it is to all of us.

Adam: I suspect that she will try to protect her public image, maybe even her marriage. She’ll think about how she’ll be perceived, how the company will be perceived if the news ever got out. But we have to look out for our reputation. Now, given everything you stand to lose, do you really think you can trust victoria to do what’s right for newman?

Victor: I will handle things. Okay?

Adam: How?

Victor: I wish you would stop vilifying your sister. She’s the victim in this.

Adam: She was warned more times than one. She knew who locke was. Even before she let him sign the contract to be co-ceo, there were warning signs and she ignored them. And now she needs to be stopped.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Victor: I will take care of things, okay? It’s your sister. Yes, honey.

Victoria: I’m glad I reached you. I’d like you to meet me in my office. And bring adam.

Victor: Alright. We’ll be over there. Your sister wants to see us. Let’s go.

It’s the most wonderful

time of the year,

Jack: I am so sorry you were dragged into all this.

Allie: I don’t understand what she thinks will happen. She pretended to die. That was her choice. And then she abandoned her son and let people think she was murdered. And of all the times she could’ve come back, she chooses now?

Jack: I guess she thought she could manipulate her way into forgiveness. I don’t — I don’t know. I do know this. Anyone in genoa city who knew her…will never forgive. They will never forget.

Nate: You’re the last person I expected to see around here. I assumed you’d leave town.

Ashland: Why would I do that? I have no reason to flee. I have been dealing with baseless rumors my entire life.

Nate: Baseless rumors. Are you still trying to convince me that’s all this is? You’re the poor, misunderstood victim of your powerful enemies.

Ashland: Yeah.

Nate: For god’s sake, give it up.

Billy: You don’t have to tell me, I know that you don’t think it’s a good idea that I talk to victoria about ashland.

Lily: No, I hate it.

Billy: What do you think could happen?

Lily: Um, I don’t know, ashland adds you to his growing list of enemies.

Billy: Well, he’s despised me for a long time, and I’m still standing.

Lily: Why don’t you let someone else fight this battle?

Billy: Look, lily, first of all, I’m not gonna let anything happen to you. But ashland is more dangerous than we even thought, and the stakes are even higher. And I don’t want him anywhere near johnny or katie. So I think it’s the right thing to do. I’ve got to try one more time to get through to victoria.

Lily: Okay.

Billy: Hey. I’ll fix this before you know it. Thank you. I love you.

Lily: [ Chuckles ]

Adam: Happy to see the gang’s all here. Hopefully that means there’s some good news to share.

Nikki: Nicholas and I haven’t heard a word yet.

Nick: Vick wouldn’t tell us what’s going on until you arrived.

Victoria: Because I only want to say this once, and once I’ve given you my decision, I hope that you’ll abide by it and respect it.

Adam: Oh, this can’t be good.

Victoria: Ashland is leaving for tuscany tonight, and I’ll be joining him.

Nikki: What? You have got to be kidding.

Nick: You can’t be serious.

Victoria: I told him that we need to distance ourselves from the barrage of attacks that are consistently coming from my family.

Victor: So you do have a plan? Why don’t you tell us what it is? Because the fate of this company and the family depends on your next move. For copd,

Ashland: You know what, nate? Believe what you want.

[ Sighs ] There is obviously nothing I can say or do to convince you of the truth.

Nate: I know the facts. I’ve seen the evidence. Do you really think you can make this all go away by pretending none of it’s real?

Ashland: I am truly sorry that I’ve lost your trust and your friendship.

Nate: Do you really mean that?

Ashland: Yes, I do.

Nate: Well, if our friendship really meant something to you, then take this last bit of advice from someone who defended you, who enjoyed your company. Stop lying. Tell victoria the truth. Don’t let her live with this conflict and suspicion she must have. For once in your life, do the right thing.

Victoria: Is that a request, dad, or a demand?

Victor: How about both?

Nick: Why are you still shutting us out?

Victoria: I’m just simply trying to handle things my own way.

Proofread by Anita

Sam: [ Sigh ]

Carly: Thanks for dragging me here.

Sam: Oh, well, at least it wasn’t kicking and screaming.

Carly: Almost. But I really needed to come, you know, so I could just clear my mind.

Sam: Good.

Carly: So.

Sam: Hopefully you can have some serenity in here.

Carly: [ Chuckles ] Yeah, hope so. Well, so much for that.

Esme: I keep playing it over and over in my head. If you and Victor hadn’t shown up when you did, who knows what Sonny would have done to me.

Spencer: I still can’t believe that my uncle had you kidnapped.

Esme: Really? Because here I was betting you thought I deserved it.

Scott: So, here’s what happens today. You enter your plea. The ADA will recommend bail. Of course, I will argue against that as to why you should be free. Then the judge will decide whether or not there is bail and how much.

Trina: And my plea is “not guilty.”

Scott: Bingo.

Portia: Sounds easy enough, right?

Curtis: You’ll be out of here before you know it.

Female Reporter: Well.

Alexis: Well, we’re trending. I mean, I knew this would do well locally, but the wires picked it up and it has gone national. I mean, it’s huge.

Female reporter: [ Chuckles ]

Josslyn: Did you see the article?

Cameron: It’s hard not to. I feel like it’s everywhere.

Josslyn: Yeah. That’s probably ‘cause it is. How do you feel about that?

Willow: We just do not want this to escalate.

Michael: Uh, yeah, for a lot of reasons. The main one being that my family had enough to deal with right now. Their focus should be on Josslyn. But I know we’re just worried that the charges could hurt us if Nina petitions for visitation.

Diane: Oh, they can. And they will.

Nina: [ Sighs ]

Maxie: Do you want to take a different class?

Nina: No.

Maxie: Are you sure?

Nina: I won’t be scared off, Maxie. Not by Carly or anyone else. Come on.

Maxie: Okay.

Carly: I hate that I run into Nina everywhere I go. It’s like that game at the carnival when you whack the mole and it pops up in another hole.

Sam: Okay, Okay. Look, we can leave if you want–

Carly: Oh, hell, no. I’m not leaving. I’m staying right here.

Sam: Really?

Carly: I’m not gonna let that bitch run me out of here.

Spencer: Of course I don’t think that you deserve to be kidnapped.

Esme: I don’t know. Your track record of siding with other people lately over me lately is pretty strong.

Spencer: I love my Uncle Sonny, but do I always condone his actions? No.

Esme: [ Sighing ] He was so angry, and…threatening.

Nikolas: Well, considering he believes you took that video of Josslyn and Cameron, I’m not surprised.

Esme: What else has to happen for people to believe it wasn’t me? The police made an arrest.

Nikolas: Have you heard the latest?

Spencer: I went to see Trina at the PCPD.

Esme: [ Scoffs ] Of course you did. So while I was being hauled off by some goon to face the wrath of your beloved uncle, you were professing your undying devotion to Trina?

Spencer: Actually, that’s not what—

Esme: No, no, no. That’s just great, Spence. I hope you two are very happy tog–

Spencer: Esme.

Esme: What?!

Spencer: If you’d let me get a word in, you’d know I told Trina that I believe you.

Molly: Curtis. Hi.

Curtis: Molly. Hey. I, um—I was wondering if you were gonna be the ADA on this case.

Molly: Well, I’m–I’m working under ADA Arden, but yes.

Curtis: Mm.

Molly: I hope this isn’t too awkward, me prosecuting Portia’s daughter.

Curtis: No, you, uh – you’re doing your job. I get it.

Molly: Between you and me, I was surprised when I found out Trina was the defendant. She seems like such a good person.

Curtis: She is. That’s why I have faith that justice will prevail. I’m gonna get back in there. Good seeing you.

Molly: Yeah, of course. You too.

Curtis: Alright.

Molly: [ Sighs ]

Scott: So, I, uh, heard that there’s a possible plea deal coming. I spoke to my man in the DA’s office, but nothing’s been decided yet. Oh, damn.

ADA Arden: Mr. Baldwin.

Scott: Mr. Arden. Uh, what’s going on? I though Ms. Lansing-Davis was prosecuting this case.

ADA Arden: Yes, I’m sure you were counting on that. Molly is second chair on this trial. I’ll be prosecuting. Unless your client chooses to take the deal I’m about to offer.

[ Dramatic music ]

Nina: Hey! Why do you keep staring at them?

Maxie: Do you feel it? You could cut the tension in here with a knife. I’m very thankful we don’t have any of those, by the way, because the last thing we need right now are weapons.

Nina: Would you please try and relax?

Maxie: Well, that’s the idea. But this is beyond cringey.

Nina: For who?

Maxie: Me.

Nina: Oh, I am so sorry, Maxie. I’ve often thought about how difficult this is for you.

Maxie: Point taken. Okay. Change of topic.

Nina: Please.

Maxie: How is visitation going with Wiley? I’ve been so busy with the Deception IPO that I think I’ve lost track of what’s going on.

Nina: Well, my goal is to avoid involving the courts.

Maxie: Oh, so Michael and Willow are letting you visit with Wiley?

Nina: Not quite, but I may have found someone who can change that.

Alexis: Hi.

Harmony: HI. I hope you don’t mind that I just dropped by. Things felt a little unsettled this morning.

Alexis: Yeah, when you forgot to tell me that you had already been in my house indoctrinating my daughter.

Harmony: Yeah. Alexis, I’m so sorry for what I did to Kristina and—and for not telling you. Especially after you’ve been so kind to let me into your home. So, uh…if you want me to leave…

Alexis: I understand that your past has been problematic. But in the present, you need to be forthright from now on, okay?

Harmony: Okay.

Alexis: Because that way, it’s fine. You can stay in the house until you find someplace that’s right for you.

Harmony: I hope it won’t take that long. And as soon as I save up for a deposit, I’m gonna be out of your hair, I promise. Thank you.

Alexis: It’s a good thing I’m feeling generous today.

Harmony: [ Sighs ] I take it the article was a success?

Alexis: Actually, it was. I think I might be finding my groove back in my second act. I haven’t felt this good since before I fell off the wagon.

Harmony: I’m just so happy that, you know, it seems like your troubles are a thing of the past. Finally.

Alexis: And why do I have the feeling that yours aren’t?

Michael: I was defending my sister. Right? Do you really think a judge is gonna hold that against me?

Diane: Depends on the judge. But worrying about it at this juncture is premature. Nina has yet to file a petition for visitation.

Michael: I just – I want to be prepared in case she does.

Diane: Okay. Um…Nina’s counsel could use the assault charge to argue that Nina will provide a more stabilizing influence for Wiley.

Michael: What?

Diane: Considering that you are prone to punching reporters and defense attorneys.

Willow: Scott never pressed charges for that.

Michael: Right, and look, we – we have piles of evidence that proves that Nina is – is anything but stable.

Diane: Okay. Could also use it to impugn your character – casting Nina in an even more sympathetic light.

Michael: My character?

Diane: Mm-hmm.

Michael: Okay, Nina let everybody believe that my father was dead. What – What rational person would have sympathy for her after that?

Diane: Michael, Willow. This is all moot.

Willow: It is?

Diane: Mm-hmm. Because I have a plan to make it all go away.

Carly: [ Sighs ] It’s not working. Every time I close my eyes, I see Josslyn’s face.

Sam: You know, after you showed me that article, I reread it. And I am super impressed with Joss and Cam’s bravery.

Carly: Right? Me too. Yeah. And a lot of credit goes to your mom. Yeah, I mean, that article really struck a chord with people. It’s trending everywhere.

Sam: Is that a good thing?

Carly: Yes and no. I mean, it’s great because it’s telling Joss and Cam’s side of the story, but…

Sam: But so many people are reading Joss and Cam’s side of the story.

Carly: Yeah. I mean, it’s just shining a bigger spotlight on Josslyn and Cam, so when are they gonna be able to get back to their normal lives?

Sam: Have you talked to Joss about it?

Carly: She was asleep when I left for work this morning, but she texted me and she sounds great. She sounds strong.

Sam: Wow. Like mother, like daughter.

Carly: [ Chuckles ]

Sam: She’s gonna be okay, Carly.

Carly: She is.

Cameron: Is it just me, or does it feel like we’re living under a microscope?

Josslyn: Oh, it’s not just you. My phone’s been blowing up.

Cameron: Reporters asking for follow-up statements?

Josslyn: Oh, yeah. And I think I’ve decided to never leave the house again. Not until this whole thing dies down.

Cameron: I could say “I told you so”…

Josslyn: Oh, but you won’t?

Cameron: Look. This is exactly why I didn’t want to do the interview.

Josslyn: No, I still think that the good outweighs the bad. Oh, how’d that thing at school go? Did you get the issue resolved with the registrar?

Cameron: Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it was — it was weird to be back in public.

Josslyn: Yeah, I bet.

Cameron: All those people whispering and staring.

Josslyn: Oh, I made myself stop reading all comments on social media. It’s insane. I mean, after all of our transparency, people still think that they know our experience better than we do. It’s messed up.

Cameron: Yeah. There was a few good moments, though. Yeah, this, um — this girl came up to me on campus.

Josslyn: What girl? I need a name.

Cameron: [ Chuckles ] No, she — she said that she admired us for speaking out. Apparently, that makes me a feminist.

Josslyn: I did see a handful of comments saying they respected us for calling attention to the issue. Some women even said that they might want to share their stories.

Cameron: That’s really cool.

Josslyn: Yeah. [ Sighs ]

Cameron: So, I guess… …I’m not huge on the extra attention that we’ve been getting. But in the end, I think we made the right decision.

Josslyn: Well, I think it’s my turn to say “I told you so.”

Cameron: It’s still hard, okay?

Josslyn: Yes, I know. I know. But maybe if we just focus on the specks of positive and we try to ignore all or most of the negative, you know, things will get easier.

Cameron: Mm. I’m game.

Josslyn: I mean, now that the article’s out, there’s nothing really to brace ourselves for. You know? We took a lot of control back.

Cameron: [ Inhales deeply ] This will not define us for the rest of our lives.

Josslyn: We won’t let it.

Diane: We should try offering something to Smoltz in exchange for dropping the charges.

Michael: Like?

Diane: Like you or someone close to you providing information for one of his stories.

Michael: Yeah, I mean, I’d be down for that. Mm-hmm. As long as the piece isn’t damaging to my family.

Diane: Well, of course not. So, let me brainstorm with Alexis. We’ll see what bait we can dangle to Smoltz. I’ll be in touch.

Michael: Thanks, Diane. Look, I’m sorry.

Willow: Why?

Michael: [ Sighs ] For jeopardizing our ability to block Nina from Wiley.

Willow: You don’t know that, Michael.

Michael: Well, it’s a pretty good assumption.

Willow: And even if you have, there’s zero reason to apologize. I love that you stood up for Josslyn. The fact that you’re protective of your family is one of the things that made me fall for you.

Michael: One of the things? You’re saying there’s — there’s — there’s more?

Willow: Many.

Michael: Oh, yeah? I’d — I’d love to hear.

Willow: Oh, what, like a list?

Michael: Whatever form suits you.

Willow: Okay. How much time do you have?

Michael: For you? Forever.

Harmony: I’m gonna go see Willow and Michael, and I’ve been thinking a lot about Nina’s request.

Alexis: To — to convince Michael and Willow to allow her visitation.

Harmony: Yeah. I’ve decided to help her.

Alexis: And I advised you not to do that. So why — why are you entertaining that?

Harmony: [ Sighs ] I don’t know. I just — I… I just felt bad for Nina. She’s had so much loss, and — and if I can help her by being kind, I mean, shouldn’t I?

Alexis: That’s very generous. Not smart, but generous.

Harmony: [ Sighs ] I just don’t want Willow to hate me.

Alexis: Willow is not gonna hate you. She’s not gonna like it, but she’s not gonna hate you. This is not gonna tank your relationship with her.

Harmony: I hope you’re right.

Alexis: You need to have some faith in your daughter.

Harmony: Mm. Thanks for listening.

Alexis: Anytime.

Harmony: And, Alexis… I’m really happy for you that you’ve got your life back on track. It must feel good.

Alexis: It does. It feels really good.

Esme: I…didn’t think you had it in you to stand up to Trina. And I’m glad you did, but I can’t forget all the horrible things you said, Spence.

Nikolas: It’s been a rough day. Maybe you should save this conversation for later, when everyone’s had a chance to regroup.

Esme: It’s no use, Mr. Cassadine. No matter how much time Spence takes, he’s made it clear that he’ll always believe the worst in me. Excuse me. I feel sick. Um…

Nikolas: You should try being a little gentler, given that she might be pregnant.

Spencer: How did you know that?

Nikolas: Victor told me. He’s worried about you — and Esme.

Spencer: You seem pretty concerned about Esme, too.

Nikolas: I’m more worried about you. Whatever else is between us, you’re my son, and I want to help you.

Spencer: Esme insisted that she was innocent. Swore that Trina wasn’t who she seemed. For so long, I trusted Esme over everyone else. I don’t know why I didn’t this time.

Nikolas: Well, that’s pretty obvious, isn’t it? You’ve developed feelings for Trina.

Scott: Well, let’s hear it. What’s the deal you have for my client?

Ada Arden: If Ms. Robinson pleads guilty to the misdemeanor charge of cyber sexual harassment, we’ll drop the felony charge of unlawful surveillance and we’ll recommend to the judge three years of probation with a fine of $1,000. This way, Trina avoids jail time.

Curtis: Um, there’s no guarantee that the judge won’t decide to give Trina jail time anyway.

ADA Arden: That’s the risk you take.

Trina: What do you think?

Scott: I think that the DA’s office can take this deal and shove it.

Molly: Trina, it’s a good deal. If you’re convicted of a felony, you could spend time in a higher-security prison. Not to mention, you’ll lose certain civil rights.

Scott: Okay. Okay. Now I need to confer with my client.

ADA Arden: Do it fast. DA Scorpio is being overly generous with this offer. It won’t be on the table for long.

Portia: Yeah, I don’t know about this. If Trina pleads guilty, it’s gonna be on her record for the rest of her life. And let’s not forget, she’s innocent. She did not do what she’s being accused of doing. Mr. Baldwin, that has to count for something, right?

Curtis: Of course it does.

Scott: Trina, it’s your decision. What do you want to do?

Trina: If I take the plea deal, I may not have to go to jail.

Portia: “May” — may being the operative word. I don’t like it. I don’t like it at all.

Curtis: I don’t like it, either. On the other hand, if the judge does sentence you to jail time, it would be a minimum-security prison.

Portia: Where she’ll be serving time for a crime that she didn’t do.

Curtis: I know.

Scott: Well, u-unfortunately, that’s not the way it works. She could be spending a year in Pentonville.

Portia: No. No. No way.

Trina: But if I plead not guilty and I’m found guilty for a felony, that’s even more jail time.

Scott: Well, that could be 2 to 5 years and/or probation, but time likely served in Pentonville.

Trina: Why’d you say to shove the deal?

Scott: Well, because that’s the way prosecutors work. They want to get a conviction. They don’t want to go to trial. It costs too much money and time, and they don’t know how the outcome is gonna be, so they start tacking on all these other charges. Then they present this shiny deal and it looks good in comparison. Now, I’ve seen all the evidence, and it’s not airtight, and I can almost guarantee you that the jury will come back with a “not guilty.”

Trina: “Almost.”

Scott: Well, that’s the rub, kid.

Curtis: Look, Trina. Let’s not think about this in terms of guarantees, okay? I want you to think about what you feel comfortable with and the outcome that you can live with.

Cameron: I can’t believe they found the phone in Trina’s backpack.

Josslyn: I don’t care what they found, because Trina would never do that to us. But I know somebody who would.

Cameron: Esme.

Josslyn: She’s good. She’s good. I’ll give her that. She framed Trina perfectly. Oh, I could — I could literally kill her.

Cameron: Please don’t. I cannot bear to have you serving jail time.

Josslyn: Can you imagine how scared Trina must be? She’s all by herself. She’s accused of something she didn’t do. The look on her face when they arrested her — I-I can’t get it out of my head, Cam.

Cameron: Isn’t her arraignment today? We should go.

Josslyn: Are — are you sure? I mean, there’ll be reporters everywhere.

Cameron: We can deal with that. Our friend is more important.

Josslyn: I’ll drive.

Willow: [ Yawns ]

Michael: I saw that.

Willow: Sorry. I was up late studying. [ Sighs ]

Michael: [ Groans lightly ] Come on. Are you, um — are you okay? If you need to go to get checked out, we can always reschedule with your mom.

Willow: [ Chuckles ] The only medicine I need is more iced tea.

Michael: Uh, and food.

Willow: Don’t worry. I learned my lesson. No more skipping meals for this girl. I am taking much better care of myself.

Michael: Okay, well, good, because I don’t know what I’d do if anything happened to you, so don’t make me find out.

Willow: I won’t. Hey, mom.

Harmony: Hi, sweetheart. Mm! Hey, Michael.

Michael: Hey. Look, I, uh — I just wanted to thank you for helping Willow out the other night. I-I’m grateful you were able to help her when I couldn’t.

Harmony: Yeah, of course. I would do anything for my daughter.

Sam: I’m in fear of Scout growing up.

Carly: It’s hard, right? I mean, you want to teach them to be mindful of all the dangers in the world, but at the same time, you want to encourage them to be open and fearless. It’s just… [ Sighs ]

Sam: I know, talk about walking a tightrope.

Carly: Totally.

Sam: I want Scout to be smart with her choices, but I don’t want to scare her.

Carly: You would think with all the progress that we’ve made, we wouldn’t have to worry about that. But just ask Josslyn. I mean, it’s like society has found new ways to be cruel.

Sam: Oh, well, if Scout can be half as tough as Joss… then I’ll be a happy mom.

Carly: Hey, you don’t have anything to worry about. And you’re a great mom.

Maxie: You asked Harmony to help you with Wiley?

Nina: Yeah. I mean, she’s Willow’s mother.

Maxie: Yeah, and from what I understand, not on the best terms with her.

Nina: No, but that’s changing. It is. Harmony and Willow are working on repairing their relationship.

Maxie: Okay, do you really think Harmony lobbying on your behalf is the best idea? It seems a bit risky to ask her to go against her own kid.

Nina: Yeah, Maxie, I’ve thought about all of that. But I am running out of options. If Harmony doesn’t come through for me, then I’m afraid my only choice is go the legal route.

Nikolas: You’re going through really complicated stuff. I mean, have you even had a chance to process what a pregnancy would mean?

Spencer: It means I would be a father. We do not know if Esme is even pregnant yet, okay? So…

Nikolas: Well, this is what I know. Esme is afraid and alone, and when I drove her back from Sonny’s office, she was shaking the whole time. And that can’t be good for a baby.

Spencer: If there is a baby. God, there’s just been so much hurt and distrust between us, right?

Nikolas: Yeah, I understand that, okay? And I’m not — I’m not even saying that you two should get back together. But I do think you need to find a way to navigate this.

Spencer: I’m open to suggestions.

Diane: The article was phenomenal. I’m so proud of Josslyn.

Alexis: And Cameron.

Diane: And you. Nicely done, Ms. Editor-in-Chief.

Alexis: It was a labor of love.

Diane: I can tell.

Alexis: Did you come all the way over here to tell me how great I am? I’m not complaining.

Diane: No. Actually, I need your help. You got a minute for your bestie?

Trina: Am I allowed to go to the hallway? Just to clear my mind for a minute.

Curtis: Can she go stretch her legs for a minute?

Officer: Yeah, I’ll take her.

Portia: Oh, okay. Come on, sweetie.

Trina: Um, I love you, and I appreciate you so much for being here, but…

Portia: You just — you want to be alone right now?

Trina: Or as alone as I can be.

Officer: It’ll be like I’m invisible.

Trina: Is that okay with you?

Portia: Of course. Whatever you need.

Trina: Okay. Thank you.

Portia: What is going on right now? Plea deals, prison time? The only thing Trina should have to worry about as a freshman is where she’s going to spring break. Not dealing with all this.

Curtis: I know. But everything will be fine because she has you. And I am absolutely here for you in any way you need me.

Portia: I love you.

Curtis: I love you, too, baby. We got this.

Josslyn: Trina!

Cameron: Hey, do you need some extra company?

Trina: What are you guys doing here?

Josslyn: Where else would we be?

Trina: I just thought you guys want to keep a low profile.

Cameron: Not today.

Willow: I keep telling myself there’s no reason to worry since Nina hasn’t filed a petition yet. But it’s hard not to.

Harmony: Well, do you think maybe Nina’s changed her mind about taking you to court? That she’s realized that being at odds with you is just not the best strategy?

Michael: Well, I’m not counting on it. Nina feels that it’s the only way to see Wiley. It’s just a matter of time.

Harmony: It’s so awful thinking about him in the middle of all this, his family fighting over him.

Willow: We hate it, too. And of course, we’ll shield him as much as possible.

Harmony: Yeah, but, you know, he’s growing up. He’s picking up on everything now.

Willow: Basically a human sponge.

Harmony: Who, if Nina is awarded visitation, he’s gonna be the one to feel the resentment between the people that he loves.

Michael: Yeah, well, that’s just, uh, something we’ll have to deal with as it comes.

Harmony: Or… or not, maybe. Listen, like, what — what if you granted Nina informal visitation and you could control the terms, and — and Wiley would be protected from all that fighting? What?

Michael: I don’t know. It sounds like you want Nina to see Wiley.

Willow: Do you?

Instructor: Okay, class is gonna start in just a few minutes, so make sure you have enough water. It’s gonna get hot in here.

Carly: Yeah.

Sam: Okay.

[ Laughter ]

Nina: Carly, uh… I-I heard about what Josslyn’s going through, and I’m really sorry. It’s horrible, but the good news is, Josslyn is tough, so if anyone can handle it, she can.

Maxie: That wasn’t terrible.

Nina: It was not terrible, was it? Hey, maybe there’s another way, huh? I haven’t tried talking to Carly about Wiley again.

Maxie: There’s a reason for that.

Nina: Well, I know my odds are not great, but for Wiley’s sake, I have to try to keep it out of the courts, right? I mean, what kind of grandmother would I be if I didn’t try everything?

Maxie: Okay. Just be careful. Everything is still so raw for Carly. You don’t want to make things worse.

Nina: Oh, and can things get worse?

Maxie: Yes.

Nina: Here I go.

Maxie: This is a bad idea.

Nina: Uh, Carly… wish me luck.

Maxie: No. Abort. Abort.

Nina: I’d like to talk to you about Wiley.

Trina: So, taking the deal and pleading guilty is probably my best chance of avoiding jail time.

Josslyn: But you’re not guilty.

Trina: I know. A-and the thought of saying I did this awful thing when I didn’t is just… and not to mention, a guilty verdict will be on my record forever.

Cameron: But if pleading guilty prevents you from doing any jail time, the people that matter know that you’re innocent.

Josslyn: I get that line of thinking. Okay, playing it safe.

Cameron: But you disagree?

Josslyn: Yeah. I think you should fight it.

Trina: Really?

Josslyn: Trina, you didn’t do it. And I’ll testify to that.

Cameron: Me, as well.

Trina: Thank you. But I-I don’t know how that’ll counter the evidence.

Josslyn: Planted evidence.

Trina: It’s still enough to convince some people. And if those people are on the jury…

Josslyn: Well, we’re here for you. Okay? No matter what you decide.

Officer: Time to head back in.

Cameron: You got this.

Bailiff: All rise. The honorable Judge Oliver young presiding.

Spencer: How are you feeling?

Esme: You don’t have to act like you care.

Spencer: I do care. I want to make sure you’re okay.

Esme: My stomach’s not feeling so great. Um, I think I’ll just head back to my room at Kely’s. And hopefully this time, no one grabs me and shoves me in a car.

Nikolas: Sonny won’t bother you anymore.

Esme: You don’t know that. I-I mean, it’s not like he doesn’t have access to the rooms. His ex-mother-in-law owns the building. If Sonny wants me, he can get to me at any time.

Spencer: Father, would it be alright if Esme stayed at Wyndemere? I’ll move in, too.

Esme: Really? You would do that?

Spencer: That way, you won’t be alone. And we can figure out next steps. If you give the okay.

Diane: This is about your reporter, Smoltz.

Alexis: Smoltz is not my reporter.

Diane: Well, Smoltz does freelance for the invader, yes?

Alexis: From time to time.

Diane: I’m trying to entice him to drop the charges against Michael.

Alexis: Yeah, he came running over here to report about that incident.

Diane: Personally, I think Michael was justified.

Alexis: I’m sure he was.

Diane: Except he did punch the man, and he did it right in front of the police commissioner.

Alexis: So Michael’s best chances are, then, if the charges get dropped.

Diane: Precisely. So I’m thinking, is there something, is there some bait that we can dangle in front of Smoltz? Perhaps a juicy story for which either Michael or one of the Quartermaines could be the source.

Alexis: What I can tell you about our little friend is he’s got a big, huge ego and he’s very greedy. And he hates me because I rejected his version of Josslyn and Cameron’s story and gave it to a responsible reporter to handle it appropriately.

Diane: For which Josslyn and Cameron and their respective families, I’m sure, are eternally grateful.

Alexis: It’s also very unlikely that I can convince Smoltz of anything. I’m sorry.

Diane: Don’t be. Your instinct to deny that bottom-feeder the story was spot-on. I will simply have to think of a different strategy.

Alexis: You always do.

Diane: [ Chuckles ]

Harmony: I was just thinking about what’s best for the whole family, you know? No long, drawn-out court battle for you, and Wiley would just get another grandmother who loves him.

Willow: I’m sorry. I’m con– I’m confused. [ Scoffs ] You know the pain Nina inflicted on Wiley. On Wiley’s entire extended family.

Harmony: I understand.

Michael: I don’t — I don’t think you do, Harmony, ’cause how could you ever trust Nina again? Not only because of what she pulled with my father, but the things that she said to Wiley.

Willow: Mom, did Nina ask you to lobby on her behalf?

Harmony: Y-yes. Yeah. Nina approached me and asked me —

Willow: A-and you agreed?

Michael: I don’t believe this.

Willow: To try and co-opt my own mother…

Michael: Yeah, nothing’s too low for Nina, she’s proven that.

Willow: Did she actually think it would work? Did you?

Harmony: Oh, my loyalty is to you, Willow, not Nina.

Michael: That’s kind of questionable at this point.

Harmony: I’m sorry if you guys think that I acted otherwise. I just — she just — Nina got me thinking, you know, that what would be in the best interest for Wiley is that if you could just settle this amongst yourselves, that’s all.

Willow: I know what this is really about.

Carly: I am not chatting with you about my grandson…

Nina: Our grandson.

Carly: …As if you didn’t throw a huge grenade in our life.

Nina: Well, Carly, I was hoping that we could maybe work together when necessary, like we did with Gladys when she was upset about Sasha and Brando.

Carly: That was a very special circumstance.

Nina: No, it wasn’t that different than this. We found a way to coexist, right? Due to our shared concern for Sasha. Can’t we do the same for Wiley?

Carly: No.

Nina: We can’t put our personal problems aside for that little boy? Why not?

Carly: Oh. [ Scoffs ] Well, let’s see. Because Sasha’s life wasn’t turned upside down because you kept her grandfather from her family. So save your concern, because you didn’t have any when you lied to Sonny or when you made a scene at his funeral or when you told Wiley that Nelle was his real mommy. So stop, Nina. Leave me and my family alone.

Nina: You can’t deny that we share a grandson.

Carly: Oh, the way you denied that Sonny had a wife and children?

Nina: Wiley is the only part of my daughter left out there in the world. You will not keep me from him. I will be in his life. And I am sorry if you and Michael have a problem with that.

Carly: Oh, my god, look at you! You are such the victim. Acting as if Michael and I are the issue, that we did this. You did this to yourself.

Judge Young: The defendant will rise. One count of cyber sexual harassment. One count of unlawful surveillance in the second degree. How does the defendant plead?

Nikolas: There’s certainly more security at Wyndemere than my mother’s, let alone Kelly’s. And… you feel safe there? Give the two of you a chance to figure things out with both proximity and space, should you need it.

Spencer: So, is that a yes?

Esme: Wait, I… I need to make sure that this is actually what you want, because if you’re not comfortable —

Spencer: It was my idea, remember? I wouldn’t have offered if I didn’t want to.

Esme: Okay.

Nikolas: [ Chuckles ] All eyes on me, huh?

Spencer: It is your home.

Nikolas: And I’m happy to share it. I think it’s what’s best for both of you right now.

Esme: Then it’s settled. Spence and I will move in.

Carly: You could have had a role in Wiley’s life. But at every turn, you made choices that put you at odds with Wiley’s family. So if you’re looking for someone to blame, go find a mirror.

Nina: It’s not about blame, Carly. It’s about this little boy. And nothing and no one will stop me from fighting for him.

Carly: Do you hear yourself? I mean, you’re not talking about Wiley like he’s a person with emotions and needs. You’re not even thinking about what’s best for Wiley. This is about you and your need to stay connected to your dead daughter. And you want to use Wiley to make you happy. You don’t give a damn about how it affects him. I do.

Nina: I’m leaving.

Maxie: Okay. I knew this was going to happen.

Carly: I hate her. I hate her. And I’m trying not to engage, but I hate Nina.

Sam: Stop. First of all, Nina is the one who engaged. You stuck up for yourself, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

Carly: Yeah. Thank you.

Sam: And as an added bonus, you got Nina to leave. Now we get to breathe and relax and enjoy ourselves.

Carly: Huh. Well, that is a plus.

Willow: You have sympathy for Nina. And I get it. I’m sure it hits close to home, makes you think of all the time we lost.

Harmony: Yeah. Yes, it does. Um, you know, being separated from your child — I wouldn’t — I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.

Michael: But I mean, you — you do understand, though, that this situation is — is different.

Willow: I have thought about Nina’s perspective, mom, from pretty much every possible angle, but our first concern is what’s best for Wiley.

Michael: Yeah, and Nina isn’t it. But we — we can’t — we can’t reach an agreement with her.

Harmony: Understood. Truly. I won’t bring it up again. I’m sorry.

Willow: Don’t be. I had compassion for Nina, too. Once upon a time, at least.

Michael: Well, must be genetic. Chuckles ]

Unknown Man: Been a long time, Ms. Davis.

Alexis: It’s you.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Spencer (to Esme): Why haven’t you taken that home pregnancy test yet?

Ava (to Joss and Cam): I know it’s difficult for you to trust me, but this time you’re gonna have to.

Scott: I’m gonna have to hear you say it.

Alexis: Oh, I never forget a face.

Nina (to Harmony): Michael and Willow want a fight, they’ll get a fight.

Brick (to Sonny): My brother, that’s not for you.

Trina: I plead…

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[Monitor beeping]

[Soft dramatic music]

Lani: Please, god, bring my husband back. I know he’s fighting as hard as he can, but he needs your help. So please don’t give up on him. Our children need him and I need him. Please.

[Monitor beeping]

Abe: Hey, sweethearT.

Lani: Hey.

Abe: Any change?

[Monitor beeping]

Lani: Eli is my entire world. What am I gonna do if I lose him?

Rafe: Thank you for coming in, ms. Howard.

Beth: Uh, you said you need me to sign my statement?

Rafe: Yes. Before you do, I just wanna go over a few things.

Beth: Is there a problem?

Rafe: No. I’m reviewing everything. The grants are two of my best detectives. They’re also personal friends of mine, so this is close to me and I want to make sure I get it right, for eli.

Beth: I’m so sorry about what happened to him.

Rafe: YeaH. So it says here in your statement that you came in to meet with detective grant and during that meeting, he left.

Beth: That’s right.

Rafe: But you have no idea why he left or where he was going? Is that accurate?

Paulina: [Scoffs] Jules and carver grant, it’s time to go to sleep. Uh-uh, don’t look at me like that, girlfriend, I just fed you. Oh!

[Knock at door] Oh, come in, it’s open. Uh! It is not a good time.

Tr: I stopped by the hospital earlier to visit lani. She said that you were watching the kids.

Paulina: And?

Tr: I thought you could use a little helP.

Johnny: What’s up, doc? You know, just because our exes own that bakery doesn’t mean we can’t partake. I mean, these devil food… cupcakes are to die foR. You should get some before they run ouT.

Tripp: I’ll pass.

Johnny: If you’re worried about running into allie, she’s not in there. Neither is chaneL. They’re probably off somewhere, making passionate love.

Chanel: Thanks for letting me stay over.

Allie: You do not have to thank me, dupree. I love having your here.

Chanel: Are you sure you’re not sick of me?

Allie: Are you sure you’re not fishing for compliments?

Chanel: We’re working together all day and now we’re sleeping together all night. That is a legit question.

Allie: I’m not sick of you. Are you sick of me?

Chanel: Hmm. Let me see if I can answer that.

[Door opens]

Nicole: Oh. Good morninG.

Allie: It is a good morning.

Chanel: Really good.

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

[Soft orchestration]

Beth: All detective grant said was that he had something to do and he’d be back soon.

Rafe: Mm-hmM. And the reason you met with him was to provide background information on tr coates with whom you have a relationship.

Beth: Had. In the past. It’s over now.

Rafe: Okay. Got you. It also says during that time, while you were together, he never was under the influence of drugs or was physically abusivE. Is that correct?

Beth: Yes.

Rafe: Okay. All right, well, just sign on the x there at the bottom, please.

Beth: How is detective grant?

Rafe: He’s still in a coma.

Beth: That’s awful. I feel so bad for his wife.

Rafe: Yeah, me too. In fact, i’m on my way to the hospital to see her right noW.

Abe: Eli is young. He’s strong. He has so many reasons to fight his way back.

Lani: Not everyone is so optimistic, dad.

Abe: What do you mean?

Lani: I just said goodbye to valerie. She had had to fly back to dc for work.

Abe: That must’ve been very difficult for her. But she’s a doctor.

Lani: Exactly. And she left. She wouldn’t have done that if she thought eli was gonna wake up soon. And seeing her leave, it made all this so much more real for me. We have to face it, dad. This can go on for a really long time.

Abe: Sweetheart, you can’t lose hope.

LanI: I’m trying. But it’s like no matter what choice I make, someone is being neglected.

Abe: What do you mean?

LanI: Obviously, the kids, they need their mother and I miss them so much, but everything inside of me says that I should be here by his side and that if I just hold his hand and tell him how much I love him that he will come back to me.

Abe: If that’s what your heart is telling you, then this is right where you need to be.

Lani: And what about child care? Valerie was at the house with jules and carver and now paulina is there.

Abe: Okay, so you’re covereD.

Lani: For now. But I can’t expect her to watch two babies full-time, dad. I need a nanny, but I feel like if I get one, I am admitting to myself that eli is never coming back.

Abe: Sweetheart, sweetheart, sweetheart. You’re admitting nothing. You’re just simply looking out after your needs until we get through this. Sweetheart, you don’t have to hire anyone. I–I would be happy, I would be happy to pitch in and help you whenever you need me. And so would julie. We’re all here for you.

Lani: Thank you, dad. I feel really blessed to have so much support. But taking care of twins, dad, is a lot for one person.

Abe: And you said that paulina is there with them? Well, maybe she can use some help.

Paula: On what planet do you think that you can help? You don’t know the first thing about babies.

Tr: But the woman at the store sure did.

Paulina: What store?

Tr: Where I bought the deluxe toddler package. Toys, stuffed animals, pacifierS. You name it. There’s gotta be something in here you can usE. Like maybe right now?

[Babies fussing]

Paulina: Okay, fine.

Tripp: Now, if you’re trying to get to me, johnny, you’re not.

Johnny: Really? I’m surprised.

Tripp: Why? I already know allie and chanel slept together because you just couldn’t wait to tell me, on valentine’s day, no less, and right after I’d just proposed to your sister.

Johnny: Look, tripp, I just– I thought you had a right to know that allie’s been having sexual relations with my wife behind your back.

Tripp: It happened one time.

Johnny: Ooh, man. As usual, you’re the last to know.

Tripp: Know what?

Tripp: It’s not one time. It’s, like, all the time. Allie and chanel are a couple now.

Allie: What we meant to say is good morning to you too, nicole.

Nicole: [Chuckles] Well, thank you, allie. Chanel, it’s good to see you.

Chanel: SamE.

Nicole: So who wants some coffee?

Chanel: Oh, thank you, but I’m actually on my way out. I’m gonna go see my sister at the hospital.

Nicole: Oh, please give lani my love.

Chanel: I will. Later, horton.

Allie: Bye.

Chanel: Bye.

Nicole: Would you like some coffee?

Allie: [Chuckles] I’d love somE. But I think first we should talk about the elephant in the room.

[Clears throat] Um, obviously, chanel and I are a couple now.

Nicole: I can see that.

Allie: Are you not happy about it?

Nicole: Well, it’s just– I’m wondering–

Allie: Wondering what?

Nicole: Allie, could this possibly just be a rebound thing?

Allie: It is definitely not a rebound thing.

Nicole: Okay. You know I’m not judging you. But tripp, he did just call off the engagement.

Allie: And now I’m with chanel. I know it seems fast, but it’s really not.

Nicole: Okay.

Allie: Because I was in denial about my feelings for so lonG.

Nicole: Your feelings for chanel?

Allie: Yeah. I mean, I know i was attracted to her, but I also know that I’m attracted to meN. And I didn’t know what that meant. And then I talked to will and he helped me figure out that it means that I am bi…sexual.

Nicole: Oh, honey. I know what bi means.

Allie: Sorry. I’m just learning a ton still myself, so–

Nicole: And this feels right to you?

Allie: Yeah. And I understand now that what I had with tripp was real and so is what I have with chanel. I care about her and she cares about me and we want to be together. As a couple.

Nicole: Well, then I fully support you. And I know that you have a lot to process, so if you need to talk about anything, I am herE.

Allie: Thank you. That means so much.

Nicole: So you and chanel? Are you out in the open?

Allie: Um, not exactly.

Nicole: Okay. So you’re keeping it a secret?

Allie: No, no. But I’m just a little nervous about going public because tripp doesn’t know yet.

Tripp: It is amazing someone who spends so much time gossiping and spreading false rumors has time to make a movie.

Johnny: No, it’s not a rumor. It’s true. Yeah, I saw allie and chanel here in the square. They were all over each other. And when I said they made a cute couple, they didn’t deny it.

Tripp: I have to get to worK.

Johnny: If you don’t believe me, you can ask linda in the bakery. I got out of her that challie spent last night together at nicole’s place. That’s the same bed that you and allie used to share, right? Well, I guess I don’t need to waste any time waiting for you to thank me for cluing you iN. Because like you said, you don’t care, right?

[Sighs and exhales deeply]

[Monitor beeping]

Lani: Hi.

[Delicate music]

Rafe: Oh, man.

Lani: [Exhales deeply]

Rafe: I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry that this happened. And that I couldn’t be there for you.

Lani: It’s okay, rafe. You were in jail for something you didn’t dO.

Rafe: YeaH. Well, I’m out now. And I’m gonna do everything in my power to get to the bottom of this.

Tr: Listen to that.

Paulina: What?

Tr: The peaceful quiet of sleeping kids.

Paulina: [Chuckles] These two are perfect angels.

Tr: Mm.

Tr: Like you said, I don’t know anything about babies, but I wanna learn. After all, carver and jules are my grandkids, too. I wanna be around for them, get to know them. But even more than that, I wanna prove to you that you can trust mE.

[Knock at door] You stay. I’ll get that.

Nicole: So tripp doesn’t know about you and chanel?

Allie: Well, we’re not exactly blasting it all over social media. But I know he’s gonna find out eventually. You think I should tell him?

Nicole: What do you think?

Allie: I think I hate the idea of hurting him agaiN.

Nicole: It’s gonna be hard, but if i were tripp, I would wanna hear it from you.

Chanel: I, um, here to see lani. Eli’s in a coma.

Tripp: I’m aware. I work here.

Chanel: Right. Uh–well–uh– I should get going. I really need to go be there for my sister.

Tripp: Surprised you can tear yourself away from your new girlfriend.

Beth: So you’re johnny dimera.

Johnny: The one and only. And you are?

Beth: Beth howard, aka the new celeste perrault. I’m sorry to drop by unannounced, but I just had to tell you in person I think this script is just incredible. I mean, so original, so fresh, with a nod to kubrick and hitchcock?

Johnny: [Chuckles] Two of my biggest influences. Wow, beth, you really know your stuff.

Beth: I’ve been doing this a while. But I have never been this excited about a project before. If you have time, I’d love to get your take on the character.

Johnny: My take is that celeste parrault is a kick-ass character that my idiot soon-to-be-ex-wife gave up. Her loss.

Beth: My gain. [Chuckles]

Johnny: Hmm. You do have a good looK. And I like how bold you are, seeking me out, asking for my input.

Beth: I wanna give you my best.

Johnny: And I hope you get the chance.

Beth: Sorry?

Johnny: Well, you don’t have the role locked up yet.

Beth: What? Tr told me himself that I did.

Johnny: Wonder why he would do that when he knows that I have final say on casting.

Abe: Well, lani told me that you’d be watching the kids and I thought that you might need some help. And I also brought some supplies from home.

Paulina: Well, that was very thoughtful of you. Thank you.

Abe: Jules loves these little dolls.

Paulina: Uh, tr, he brought over some supplies as well.

Tr: Great minds. Look, mr. Mayor, I know how you feel about me, but I visited lani earlier at the hospital and she said that she wanted to spend as much time as possible with eli so i thought I would come by here to help and spend some time with my grandkidS.

Abe: May I speak to you, please? In private.

Tr: I have some emails that need my attention.

Abe: You know, you may think this is none of my business, but having that man here, it’s a damn big mistake.

Rafe: I’ve been reading statements, reviewing evidence, and conducting interviews. I’ve had some questions about what happened in the park that day.

Lani: We know what happened. Shawn and I were there.

Rafe: Yeah, but I’m not sure it’s as simple as it seems. I think there might be more to this story.

Chanel: My girlfriend? What are you talking about?

Tripp: Cut the crap, chanel. Johnny told me you and allie are together now.

Chanel: He did what?

Tripp: Yeah, don’t bother denying it, okay? He said he saw you two getting it on in the square and he knows you spent the night at nicole’S.

Chanel: GiovannI has a big mouth.

Tripp: Of course. Of course, blame the messenger.

Chanel: Okay, look, for what it’s worth, this is not how we wanted you to find out.

Tripp: You think I care? Don’t flatter yourself.

Chanel: Well, allie and i care about you a lot.

Tripp: Please. I remember you, when you came running over here after I called off the engagement. Saying, “what allie and i did was a one-time thing. She wants you, tripp, not me. Can’t you just get find it in your heart to forgive her?” What a crock.

Chanel: I had no idea we would end up together.

Tripp: Right. Right, you’ve only been dangling yourself in front of allie from day one. Making sure she can never get you out of her head. I mean, you just couldn’t let us be happy, could you? I think you only went after her brother just to get under her skin.

Chanel: I did not! I was in love with johnny and he broke my heart!

Tripp: Well, if that’s true, that sucks for you. But I don’t think it is. Because you sure got over him quick.

Johnny: I take it tr didn’t mention that little detail when he offered you the part?

Beth: No, he did not.

Johnny: Weird. Because he told chanel and that’s why she came running to me, begging me to recast her. Because she knew that without my approval, she wasn’t getting out of her contracT.

Beth: And what did you tell her?

Johnny: I said I’d cut her loose if she dropped the lawsuit that she had against me. Before she could get back to me, tr went ahead and signed you.

Beth: Well, maybe you guys just got your wires crosseD.

Johnny: [Scoffing chuckle] No, I don’t think so. But tr is a veteran producer. He knew damn well that he didn’t have the authority to give you that role without my approval. So it makes me wondeR. Why would he do that? Could you shed any light on that?

Paulina: You’re right, abe. It is none of your business.

Abe: You know, I know your history with that man. And why the hell would you let him be around you and the twins?

Tr: Excuse me. I know you two are talking about me, so let’s just get it out there.

Abe: Like i told you, when you showed up at the hospital after eli had been shot, I don’t want you around paulina, my daughter, or my grandchildren.

Paulina: Abe, pleasE.

Tr: No, no, no, it’s okay. I can tell you a thousand times that i’m not the man that I used to be. But you’ll never believe that until I show you and that’s all I’m trying to do. And I want to assure you as I have assured paulina, she has nothing to fear from me.

Paulina: Abe, I’m fine. Really, really. You can go. And thank you for the supplies.

Abe: I’ll call you later. Just to make sure all is well.

[Soft dramatic music]

Tr: Mayor carver does not like me.

Paulina: He’s just being protective.

Tr: Oh, is that what you think?

Paulina: Well, what else could it be?

Tr: Maybe he’s jealous. Let’s go over everything. First question, why did elI go to that park?

Rafe: I don’t know. I need to keep digging on that. Obviously, we know he was there, right? So theory number one, eli’s going through the park, he sees that frank guy, sees him shooting up, right? So he goes to arrest him. Struggle ensues, they end up fighting for the gun, and elI gets shot.

Lani: If that’s true, why wouldn’t frank just run?

Rafe: Okay, yeah. So that brings me to theory number two, right? ElI’s going through the park, sees the frank guy, he’s dealing, so he goes to arrest him. Again, they start fighting, gun goes off, guy thinks that he’s killed a cop, he panics, shoots up, ods.

Lani: In other words, he killed himself.

Rafe: Right.

Lani: Why not use the gun?

Rafe: Well, maybe it was an accidental overdose.

Lani: He just wanted to calm his nerves and ended up doing too much?

Rafe: I don’t knoW. See, every time I come up with a new scenario, I just have more questions than I have answerS. And we have no witnesses.

LanI: Security footage?

Rafe: No. Not in that section of the park. I mean, that’s why the dealers and junkies go there.

Lani: Eli is the only one who knows what happened that day. I pray every minute of every day that he will wake up and tell us what happeneD.

Rafe: Yeah. Listen, in the meantime, I’m gonna try and find out more about the dealer, okay? You hang in there, all right?

LanI: Hmm. I’ll do my best.

Rafe: You betteR. And, listen, you need anything, anything at all, I’m here, okay?

Lani: Thank you, rafe.

Rafe: Okay. We’ll talk soon. All right, kid?

Lani: Yeah.

[Downbeat music]

Tripp: You and allie could’ve told me the truth at any point. From the moment I met you to the moment I asked her to marry mE.

Chanel: I’m sorry.

Tripp: No, you’re not. You’re probably psyched. I mean, “stupid, naive tripp. He actually bought it when we said we’re just friends? Wow, if he’ll believe that, he’ll believe anything.”

Chanel: We did not think that!

Tripp: How could you not? I was stupid enough to believe you when you said it was just two innocent kisses. And I was stupid enough to believe allie when she said she’d left your place after comforting you the night of the reception. And when i came to you to check on you after your breakup, you must’ve been laughing at me inside.

Chanel: No, that’s not true! Look, I understand you’re upset after finding out in the worst possible way, okay? Johnny never should’ve opened his big, fat mouth!

Tripp: At least he told me the truth. Which is more than you and allie have ever done.

Johnny: So why would tr go out on a limb for you?

Beth: We have history. He knows me, knows my work, and he thought I’d be right for the role.

Johnny: Oh, come on, beth. I know how these things go in hollywood. Woman of a certain age, work isn’t as easy to come by as it used to be. You wanted to play celeste, tr wanted something in return–

Beth: Are you implying that–

Johnny: If he gave you this role in exchange for sexual favors, that could blow up in my face. And that is not gonna happen because this, this is my big shot, and no one’s gonna get in the way of that.

Beth: I wouldn’T. I would never. You have to believe me.

Johnny: Why? Because you say so? Look, I’m sorry, but your word is not enough for me to stake my entire career on. I’m sorrY. We’re gonna have to start looking for another actress.

Beth: I didn’t sleep with tr. I swear. All I did was agree to keep quiet about his past.

[Shrill tones]

Johnny: What past?

Paulina: Abe is not jealous.

[Scoffs] There’s nothing to be jealous of. First of all, there’s nothing going on between you and me. And less than nothing going on between me and abe.

Tr: He couldn’t forgive you for lying to him?

Paulina: That’s the sad parT. He did forgive me. He doesn’t know if he can ever trust me again. So there’s no hope for the future.

Tr: I’m sorry to hear that. As i have said, I know I have a lot of work to do to win your trust again. And I intend to do it. Prove myself through my actions, a little more each day. Because I want to be a part of your life, paulina. I want another chance to show you how good we can be together. However long it takes, no matter I have to do, I’m not giving up. I’m never giving up on you. A sweet-talker, ray. Lots of pretty words. Just the rest of it I’m not so sure about.

Tr: I don’t blame you. But I hope over time you’ll see that I’m sincere… and give me another chance.

Johnny: What happened in tr’s past? What does he want you to keep quiet about?

Beth: Just some things I know about hiM.

Johnny: Like what?

Beth: It’s not important. I shouldn’t have even said anything.

Johnny: Now, didn’t anyone ever tell you that secrets have a way of coming out?

Beth: Not this one. This is dead and burieD.

Johnny: Who else knows about it besides you and tr?

Beth: No onE. And that’s how I’m gonna keep it. Look, you can’t say anything to tr about this. Please. I can’t lose this role.

Johnny: I think I get the picture now.

Beth: So you’re not firing me?

Johnny: No, nO. I’ll be in touch. I look forward to working with you.

[Eerie tense music]

Lani: Any changes?

Tripp: No, but don’t be discouraged by that. It means he’s stable. Something positive to hold on to.

[Monitor beeping]

Lani: [Sighs] And how are you doing, lani? When’s the last time you slept or got something to eat?

Lani: Honestly, I don’t know. I don’t even remembeR.

Tripp: It’s important to take care of ourselves, too. Maybe on my break, how about I go down and get you a sandwich? Maybe some coffee?

Lani: [Chuckles] That’d be great. Thank you, tripp. Paulina said you were a great doctoR. She was righT.

[Phone rings]

Allie: Hey, dupree.

Chanel: Hey. [Sniffles]

Allie: What’s wrong?

Chanel: I’m at the hospital.

Allie: Did something happen to eli?

Chanel: No, I– I haven’t been to his room yet.

Allie: Okay, then what is it?

Chanel: I ran into tripp. He knows we’re a couplE.

Allie: You told him?

Chanel: Johnny beat me to it.

Allie: Are you serious?

Chanel: Yes. And tripp is not taking it welL.

Allie: Well, yeah, no, of course not. Damn johnny for telling him!

Chanel: I just–i– it’s like johnny just– he can’t but make it worse and worse for us. But okay, I need to pull myself together. And I need to be there for my sister.

Allie: Okay, call me after you see her.

Chanel: I will.

Allie: [Sighs] And I know I have to see.

Nicole: I am so sorry, abe. I mean, seeing this tr guy with your grandkids must’ve been terribly uncomfortable.

Abe: I’m really worried about paulina. I don’t like her spending time with this guy.

Nicole: And this guy who says he’s changed now, right?

Abe: His ex-girlfriend backs him up. She says that he never used drugs and he never laid a hand on her when they were together.

Nicole: Do you believe that?

Abe: I don’t know. And he’s saying and doing all the right things. I–I just don’t trust him.

Nicole: You remember how abusive my father was, right?

Abe: Hmm.

Nicole: And he told everyone that he had changed, but he didn’T. And it is rare that guys like that do.

Abe: Yeah, well, that’s what’s got me concerned. Unfortunately, i don’t have the right to say anything since I’m not in paulina’s life anymore. You know what? I had– oh, I had better get going. It’s so good to see you again.

Nicole: AW. You too, abe. You take care of yourself, okay?

Abe: Yeah, I will.

[Knock at door]

Paulina: [Inhales deeply] Door’s open, come in.

Rafe: Oh, hey, paulina. Sorry to bother yoU. You got a minute?

Paulina: Oh, no. Of course, of course. But keep it down please, okay? Because the twins, they’re asleep.

Rafe: Oh.

Paulina: This is, um–

Tr: Tr coates. Paulina’s ex.

Rafe: Oh. Pleasure to meet you. Rafe hernandez, salem pd.

Tr: Pleasure, officer.

Rafe: Actually, it’s commissioneR. Yep, I was just reinstated.

Paulina: Oh! That’s wonderful!

Tr: [Chuckles] Excuse me.

[Baby babbling]

Paulina: So what can i do for you?

Rafe: Well, lanI said that abe was here so I was hoping to talk to him about eli’s shooting.

Paulina: Oh, you just missed him.

Rafe: Oh.

Paulina: And can I tell you how glad i am that you are back on the job and on this case? Oh, I know you are as relieved as I am that lowlife junkie that shot my son-in-law, he’s dead.

Rafe: Thing is, he wasn’t a junkie.

Paulina: What?

Rafe: Yeah, i just got off the phone with a reliable source who says he didn’t use drugs, he only sold theM. So now, I’m wondering how the hell he died of a massive overdose.

Chanel: I’ll come back.

Lani: No, stay.

Tripp: I was just leaving.

Chanel: I’m so sorry.

[Monitor beeping]

Demon johnny: As you always knew, stefano, everyone’s got a dirty, little secret. And I can’t wait to find out what mr. Coates’ iS… so i can use it against him. Just like I used allie’s secret against her. Huh. Poor thing.

Allie: I know what you did! Did you hear what I said? Turn around and face me, you son of a bitch!

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Steffy: You haven’t changed, sheila.

Sheila: Brooke is the one that hasn’t changed. Boozing it up with deacon, cheating on your father the first opportunity she had.

Steffy: Because of you. This chance at a relationship with finn, with hayes, it’s over. It is never gonna happen now that I have proof that you’re still the same manipulative sociopath you have always been. Targeting brooke like that?

Sheila: You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Steffy: Oh, stop denying it, sheila! Stop denying it. I know how sick you are, how far you’re willing to go. I know what you did to brooke.

Hope: Well, I, um, tried to stop by the house earlier, but you weren’t home.

Brooke: I went to the office to see ridge.

Hope: Oh. And, uh, how did that go? Any progress?

Brooke: He says that he misses me. He’s concerned.

Liam: Of course he’s concerned. That goes along with loving you.

Brooke: He may care about me, but doesn’t mean he’s gonna get past what happened. I betrayed his trust. Now I have to deal with the consequences, whatever they may be.

Thomas: That’s an odd way to put it.

Taylor: What?

Thomas: That there is nothing I wouldn’t do to get you and dad back together.

Taylor: Okay, when you say it like that, it does sound a little weird. Honey, I just– I know how much this means to you and steffy. I know how much you wanna see your father and me back together.

Thomas: And that’s what you want too, right?

Hope: Mom, whether ridge forgives you or not, you have to forgive yourself and move on.

Brooke: That’s what ridge said. He said I need to stop torturing myself and stop living in the past.

Liam: He’s right about that much. Self-flagellating isn’t gonna help anyone.

Brooke: You think I like being stuck like this? I don’T. Constantly wondering what happened to me, why I let ridge slip away.

Hope: [Scoffs] But you haven’T. Not yet.

Brooke: He doesn’t live here anymore, does he? He seems happier over at steffy’S. And who can blame him? I think he feels safer with taylor.

Hope: Well, that might be a temporary situation, because, mom, I mean, at the end of the day, you are still married to him. And unless that changes, you still have a chance.

Ridge: Ah, good. You’re still here.

Thomas: I will be till I finish this sketch.

Ridge: I was talking to the pretty one.

Taylor: Well, then you were talking to thomas.

[Laughs] I’m gonna head out so you guys can work.

Ridge: Wait, wait, wait. Without answering the question? I mean, I overheard you guys.

Thomas: Yeah, mom. Answer the question.

Taylor: Oh!

Ridge: I–I was only kidding.

Taylor: The question. Do I wanna get back together with this guy? What do you think?

Sheila: If I did anything to brooke–

Steffy: If?

Sheila: I’m not saying that I did, but–

Steffy: I overheard thomas talking to you on the phone. Talking about he couldn’t take it–the little secret he was keeping? How you switched the labels on brooke’s bottle. She thought she was drinking non-alcoholic champagne, but you made sure it was the real stuff. No wonder she turned to vodka. She was drunk because of you.

Sheila: Okay. Fine. It’s true. I did it. I’m the one that got brooke to drink, and it’s a damn good thing that I did. You should be on your knees, steffy, thanking me profusely. Because of me, I’m the one that got your father away from brooke. And yet here you stand, lashing out at me, judging me, telling me I will have no place in my son’s life? No! If anything, I just solidified my place in his life, in yours. Don’t tell me… this isn’t what you’ve always wanted. Because we know it’s exactly what you’ve wanted. You’re welcome.

[Sfx: Chicken clucking] Everyone wants to be the cadbury bunny. Cause only he brings delicious cadbury creme eggs. While others may keep trying…

[Sfx: Chicken clucking]

Brooke: I’m not giving up. I know ridge is extremely hurt. But I also know that he still wants to be with me.

Hope: There you go. So have faith in that.

Liam: Yeah. That is what’s gonna get you through, just knowing that you belong together.

Brooke: We do. I pleaded for him to come home.

Hope: And what did he say?

Brooke: Uh, nothing much really. But I could tell he was quite torn about it. For now, he’s staying put, living with steffy and taylor. Steffy is harassing ridge at home, and thomas is harassing ridge at the office. They’re doing everything they possibly can to keep ridge and me apart.

Taylor: Okay. Um, I think–I think everyone knows how I feel. As a matter of fact, I think I’ve been too honest about where I stand on wanting a happy life with your father. But I’ve–I’ve also told steffy and thomas that I think it’s really important that– that you just heal right now, and you don’t know any pressure from anyone. Do you feel pressure from me?

Ridge: I don’T.

Taylor: A little bit?

Ridge: Mm-mmm.

Taylor: No? From the kids?

Ridge: No. Not at all. A thousand times a day maybe.

Thomas: Okay. All right. Maybe we’re a little vocal.

Taylor: A little? A “lottle.”

Thomas: [Laughs]

Ridge: A lottle? Really? A lottle? Yes. With rapid fire.

Taylor: Yes.

Ridge: A lottle.

Taylor: Yes.

Ridge: Wow.

Taylor: So see, thomas, th–this is what it is. I– you have to ease up on all of this. You can’t put any more pressure on us, okay? Seriously, you can’T. ‘Cause we don’t know what’s gonna happen. Your dad could go back to brooke at any time.

Thomas: I know.

Taylor: Do you, though?

Thomas: Yes. Yes. If–if… you and dad decide to make a go of it, and I’m pretty sure that you will, then… he has to want to be with you as much as you wanna be with him and not because steffy and i just said that you guys should be together.

Ridge: Pretty insightful.

Taylor: It is.

Thomas: Well, it’s true.

Taylor: Yes, it’s very true. So, you’re promising us, right? No more parent trap. You won’t do or say anything that could interfere with your dad’s decision about his marriage to brooke.

Steffy: You think I should be thanking you?

Sheila: You wanna see your parents together, don’t you? That’s what’s happening, isn’t it? Is it because of something that–that you or thomas did? No. It’s because of me. Because I took the initiative while you all set around watching your father waste his life away on a drunken slut.

Steffy: You mean alcoholic in recovery who hadn’t been tempted to drink in years until you tricked her to do it.

Sheila: I allowed her the ability to have what she really wanted. I allowed her to stop suppressing her desire to drink, to cheat. And it’s a good thing that I did. Because of brooke’s little slipup, your father is living at your house with your mother. A woman that he has always admired. And it won’t be long before they’re back together again. That’s what I want, steffy. I want that for both of them. I want that for you and thomas, for the children. You deserve to have your family reunited.

Steffy: Why do you even care?

Sheila: Because you’re my family too. I know–I know that you don’T… like to hear that and that you have a hard time dealing with that, but you’ll be able to one day. You’ll be able to accept me the same way that your mother has. She probably hasn’t said anything, but… she’s so wonderful. By giving me… a chance, believing that I’ve changed.

Steffy: No, you haven’T. What you did to brooke proves it. You’re just as dangerous. You are just as manipulative. You will never have a place in our lives. I’m putting an end to this.

Sheila: To what?

Steffy: You. No more stopping by my mom’s office. No more secret meetings with thomas. You’re done, sheila. I never wanna see your face… not ever again. I’m amber, I’ve lost 128 pounds with golo, taking release. I have literally tried everything. I was on the verge of getting gastric bypass surgery, and I saw the golo commercial, and it was the last thing I tried ’cause it worked. (Vo) can you spot the cinnamojis in your bowl? For a limited time, try new cinnamoji toast crunch, blasted with cinnamoji faces.

Brooke: Bridget, you didn’t have to call and check on me. I know it’s late in new york.

Bridget: Actually, I just wanted to let you know I’m back in L.A. I’m working out of university hospital for a while to help with restructuring and shortages.

Brooke: Oh, that’s wonderful. It’ll be good to see you.

Bridget: You too. You hanging in there, mom?

Brooke: Yes. Thank you, sweetheart.

Woman: [Speaking on P.A.]

Bridget: Sorry, mom. They’re paging me. I’m gonna have to go.

Brooke: Oh, okay. You go. And just please stop by soon.

Bridget: I will. I promise. Love you, mom.

Brooke: I love you too, sweetheart. Bye, bridget.

[Sighs] Well, your sister’s in town.

Hope: [Gasps] Yes! That means I have backup now. Look, mom, what thomas and steffy do doesn’t even matter. The only thing that matters is ridge’s love for you.

Brooke: What if that’s not enough?

Hope: It is.

Brooke: Even if there’s an outside force working against us?

Liam: Outside force. What are you, uh– what are you referring to?

Brooke: [ Sighs ] I–I don’t know. It’s just this feeling I’m getting, and I can’t shake it. I told eric and ridge about it too.

Hope: What, is it like a feeling like someone’s working against you?

Brooke: [Sighs] I don’t know. Something or someone. Just…this feeling that I’m getting. It’s like ridge and I are up against more than we realize.

Sheila: You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Steffy: Oh, I do. And when my mother finds out what you’ve done, she’ll say the exact same thing. That kindness–

Sheila: No, you can’t say anything to taylor. You can’t tell anyone why brooke drank.

Steffy: You think I don’t wanna show everyone what a lying, manipulative person you are?

Sheila: Just think of your mom. She wants another chance with ridge after years of standing on the sidelines watching him pursue a pathetic destiny with brooke.

Steffy: Years you took away. You took her away. And now you think you can spike a few drinks and all is forgiven? You really are insane.

Sheila: You want to see them back together again, and thomas does too.

Steffy: How long has he been involved?

Sheila: What?

Steffy: Thomas. Did he help you?

Sheila: No. No, he just found out about it recently. And I told him the same thing I’m telling you right now. Your family can be whole again.

Sheila: You just need to keep quiet. So please, steffy, think of your mother’s happiness and your father’s too. Doesn’t he deserve to be free of brooke?

Steffy: He does, but not like this– not being manipulated into it.

Sheila: Does it really matter?

Steffy: If my parents wanna be back together, it’s because they wanna be back together, not because you did something wrong and sick.

Sheila: I exposed brooke, that’s all.

Steffy: You exposed yourself for the dangerous person that you are. Everyone’s gonna know the truth.

Sheila: No.

Steffy: Any interest of finn having a relationship with you, that you could actually–

Sheila: Just stop, steffy!

Steffy: You are never having a relationship with finn. Never.

Sheila: That is not your decision to make.

Steffy: He is my husband.

Sheila: He is my son. And I’m warning you, don’t do anything to come between finn and me. Not a damn thing! Do you hear me? You keep your mouth shut. Go with simparica trio it’s triple protection made simple! Simparica trio is the first and only monthly chewable that covers heartworm disease, ticks and fleas, round and hookworms.

Taylor: What is it, thomas? What’s–what’s wrong?

Ridge: Is there something you wanna tell us?

Thomas: Well, uh, that you–you still have feelings for mom, which I wasn’t sure about, but, obviously, you do, right?

Ridge: Yeah. What– yeah, of course I do.

Thomas: Yeah.

Ridge: What are you–

Thomas: And I know that you’re still married to brooke. But when I see you two together, I see amazing potential. I see two people that could build an incredibly wonderful life together, and it just seems meant to be.

Hope: Not sure I’m following. Are you suggesting that thomas and steffy are somehow manipulating all of this?

Brooke: It’s just– it’s this overwhelming feeling that I keep getting, that I’m–I’m missing something, that there’s a– a bigger explanation to all of this.

Steffy: You’re warning me? Or do you mean threatening? Because if that’s how you speak to finn’s wife, the mother of his child, how do you expect to make inroads with him?

Sheila: Oh, but that’s just it. You tell me I can’t– I won’t be a part of his life, and yet it’s like you’re baiting me, trying to get me to do things.

Steffy: Show that you haven’t changed? Yeah, whatever works.

Sheila: Just have a little understanding, please. You’ve never given me a chance since I came back to town. You won’t even consider that I might have good intentions, even though your mother was open to that possibility, the one person, out of everyone, who had the right to doubt that I’m reformed.

Steffy: You’re not reformed, sheila. You purposely got an alcoholic to drink.

Sheila: What would you have done? Hmm? Go ahead, steffy. Why don’t you tell me? What would you have done… if you had brooke in your face telling you that she was never going to let you be a part of your son’s life? I couldn’T… let her get in the way, and I won’t let you either.

Steffy: So this is a threat.

Sheila: I didn’t want it to be this way. But finn’s my only hope. He’s the one child that… I could have a future with, a life with. A life that I could have had with you too. I really wanted that, steffy. An opportunity to love you.

Steffy: Who would ever want that from you? Being loved by you is a curse– a curse that finn will never have to know. I will make sure of it. I will make him realize that you’re still a criminal. You’re still as dangerous as ever. You will never be part of our lives. Do you hear me?

Sheila: No! If one of us isn’t meant to be in finn’s life, it’s gonna be you, steffy. You.

TV Interview!

"How We Roll" cast on CBS

Interview with actors from “How We Roll” on CBS by Suzanne 3/23/22

This was a nice CBS press day – my first with them. I was very happy to be included, even though I was only able to ask one question.

This seems like a fun sitcom, so I’ll definitely be checking it out when it airs tomorrow.

CBS SPRING 2022 VIRTUAL PRESS DAY
“How We Roll” with actors Pete Holmes, Katie Lowes, Chi McBride, Julie White and Mark Gross, Executive Producer
Virtual via Zoom
March 23, 2022
© 2022 CBS Broadcasting Inc. All Rights Reserved.
“How We Roll” premieres Thursday, March 31st, at 9:30 p.m. Eastern on CBS, and streaming on Paramount Plus.

The show is based on the life of real-life Midwestern dad, Tom Smallwood, who decided to pursue his dream of becoming a pro bowler after he was laid off from his job

There was a video from Brian d’Arcy James, Executive Producer, who couldn’t be there. He told us about how the show came about. He heard about Smallwood because they’re both from Saginaw, MN. He fell in love with the idea of this guy deciding to follow his dream, regardless of the odds against him, in order to take care of his family. They loved and supported him, and so did his whole community. James thought this would make a great story. It’s certainly an interesting idea. I don’t think there’s every been a sitcom about bowling before. There was the comedy-drama, “Ed,” about a lawyer who returns to his hometown and buys a bowling alley…he practiced law out of it. There have been many sitcoms about working class people who go bowling regularly, such as “Laverne and Shirley” and “Roseanne.” There’s never been one that’s mostly about bowling, let alone one that is about a professional bowler. I just hope it’s funny because that’s my main criteria for a comedy. It has to make me laugh, often, or I won’t keep watching it. We’ll see!

I was really happy to be able to ask Chi McBride a question because he’s been in so many great shows I’ve watched and loved, such as “Boston Public,” “Human Target,” “House” and many more. I asked him, “You’ve done a lot of dramas over the past — I don’t know, how long it’s been…. A couple of decades. But you got your start in sitcoms. So, what was it that attracted you to this project?”

He gave me an unexpectedly heartfelt answer. It was really nice. He confided that not only did he “love the story,” but he could relate to it. He said, “30 years ago, I left my successful career at the phone company when I was making $300 a week, against the advice of my broker.” He drove from Atlanta to California to be in show business. He mentioned that he had a lot of confidence. He probably had some money to keep him afloat for awhile, too, is my guess, since he decided he wouldn’t be a waiter or anything like that. He credits that confidence with getting into the business, which he’s worked in for 30 years. He can identify with the situation because everyone thought he was crazy, too, for taking this chance.

He talked about his character, Archie, who is a mentor to the main character, Tom (played by Pete Holmes). He told us that Archie has believed in Tom since he was a child. He really loves characters like Archie and felt that this was “a wonderful opportunity.” Also, he added that he knew all the other people in the cast and their work. He praised them for being both talented and “lovely people at the same time.” He shared that it’s “been a real gas, to tell you the truth.” Going back to my question about having done mostly drama for a long time, he did admit that he hadn’t been “in front of three camera format in 25 years” (that’s how they shoot sitcoms), so he found it “daunting” at first. He gave credit to director Mark Cendrowski for helping him figure it out and get over that bump road. He joked, “it was like riding a bike. Like, when you ride a bike into a tree at first.” He was very funny throughout his answer, and we all laughed a lot. The whole panel was pretty funny. Anyway, he concluded that he’s “just glad to be here” and that the basic story inspired him.

Producer Mark Gross talked about his part in bringing the show to life. He wanted to write something with hope in it. James told him about the Tom Smallwood story. He praised Tom’s beautiful writing about Tom and his story. It really inspired him. He spoke in detail about how he worked on it feverishly (sometimes literally, when he had COVID). He can’t believe that they got such an “incredible, amazing cast.” He thinks Tom’s story is filled with miracles.

Pete Holmes was asked to compare his other show, “Crashing,” based on his early days of trying to make it as a comedian, to this one, since they’re both about someone giving up steady work to pursue their dreams.

Pete answered that he never though of that comparison before. He confided that his parents didn’t seem too concerned about his becoming a comedian. He added, “I don’t know if that’s because they believed in me, or they just weren’t paying attention.” Everyone laughed, so he riffed on that idea for a minute. It was hilarious. Then he told us, more seriously, that his parents were always very supportive of him, and other people he knew ere, too. He believes that you should get rid of the “naysayers” in your life if you want to be successful. He also mentioned that he always saw some other comedians that were unsuccessful because they were always comparing themselves or their careers to other comedians, which he referred to as “comedy cancer.” He told us that Mark Gross and one of the other writers (Tommy Johnagin) are both great stand-up performers and writers. He talked about how he and his wife read the script when he got it, praying that it was good. They enjoyed it and laughed, and appreciated that the wife was not just the usual TV “nagging wife.” It reminds him of the series “Ted Lasso,” in the sense that the wife believes more in Tom than he does. He also thought that the other characters were not stereotypes, either. Back to the question, he said that he’s very grateful that he didn’t have people doubting him when he was starting out. He “was one of the first people to go to college” in his family, so they said that he could do whatever he wanted after that.

Another reporter asked a question, but unfortunately, the actors didn’t answer it seriously. It was a very funny time for all of us, though. He/she asked what the actors found it easiest and most difficult as far as connecting to their character. Instead, Pete joked about the other new CBS show “Beyond the Edge,” saying that “I thought the monkeys that were encroaching on our camp were really difficult.” From then on, it only got funnier. I can only hope that the real show is half as funny as these guys were in this panel.

CBS ANNOUNCES NEW COMEDY “HOW WE ROLL” TO PREMIERE THURSDAY, MARCH 31 AT 9:30 PM

“How We Roll,” Formerly Titled “Smallwood,” Stars Pete Holmes, Katie Lowes,

Chi McBride, Julie White and Mason Wells, and Is Based on the Life of

Professional Bowler Tom Smallwood

CBS will premiere the new comedy HOW WE ROLL (formerly titled “Smallwood”) on Thursday, March 31 (9:30-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, after B POSITIVE completes its second season order. The series will also be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+*. Based on the life story of professional bowler Tom Smallwood, the series stars Pete Holmes as Tom, a stoic Midwest husband and dad who gets laid off from a car assembly line and makes the extraordinary decision to provide for his family by following his dream of becoming a professional bowler.

As a skilled player, Tom knows that in bowling you get two chances: no matter what you do with the first ball, you get another one to make it right – the ultimate second chance. Keeping that in mind, he begins his new career with the loving “OK” from his wife, Jen (Katie Lowes); the unfaltering support of Archie (Chi McBride), his mentor and the proud owner of Archie’s Lanes: Home of the Curly Fry; the cautious backing of his protective mom, Helen (Julie White); and the encouragement of his son, Sam (Mason Wells). It remains to be seen if Tom will strike it big on the pro bowler circuit, but right now, the pins are set, he’s taking his second shot, and it’s 300 or bust.

HOW WE ROLL is produced by CBS Studios. Mark Gross, David Hollander and Brian d’Arcy James are the executive producers. Mark Cendrowski directed the pilot.

*Paramount+ Premium subscribers will have access to stream live via the live feed of their local CBS affiliate on the service as well as on demand. Essential-tier subscribers will have access to on-demand the day after the episode airs.

Pete Holmes (Tom on HOW WE ROLL)

Pete Holmes is a nationally touring standup comedian, actor, “Christ-leaning spiritual seeker,” improviser, writer, cartoonist, and late-night host. Most recently, “Comedy Sex God,” Pete’s first book, was published May 14, 2019 by Harper Wave. Part autobiography, part philosophical inquiry, and part spiritual quest, “Comedy Sex God” is a hilarious, profound, and enlightening romp around his fertile mind.

In March 2019, Pete’s semi-autobiographical HBO comedy series, “Crashing,” that he created, starred in and executive-produced alongside Judd Apatow, celebrated its third and final season. “Crashing” was critically acclaimed and followed a stand-up comic (Holmes) who reevaluates his life and enters the New York comedy scene after discovering his wife’s infidelity. Currently, Pete is the host of the wildly popular podcast, “You Made It Weird,” which is a comedic exploration of the meaning of life with guests ranging from Deepak Chopra and Elizabeth Gilbert, to Seth Rogen and Garry Shandling. With more than 660 episodes, “You Made It Weird” has been downloaded over six million times and is recognized annually as a top podcast.

Since 2011, Pete has starred in CollegeHumor’s hilarious web series, “Badman.” “Badman” parodies the Christopher Nolan Batman films, with Pete playing the Caped Crusader as oblivious and incompetent, much to the annoyance of friends and foes alike. Pete also provided the voice for the talking baby in the award-winning E*TRADE ad-campaign.

An accomplished standup, with three hour-long television specials (HBO’s “Pete Holmes: Dirty Clean,” HBO’s “Pete Holmes: Faces and Sounds,” and Comedy Central’s “Pete Holmes: Nice Try, The Devil!”) and innumerous late-night appearances, Pete also hosted his own late-night TBS talk show, “The Pete Holmes Show,” that aired for two seasons. Pete has written for several television series, including “The Simpsons” and “Outsourced,” and many of his cartoons have been published in “The New Yorker,” which he thinks is pretty neat.

Currently, Holmes lives in Los Angeles with his wife and daughter. His birthday is March 30. Follow him on Instagram and Twitter @peteholmes.

Chi McBride (Archie in HOW WE ROLL)

A prolific actor in both television and film, Chi McBride most recently starred in the hit series “Hawaii Five-0” as Captain Lou Grover, on the Network.

He is also known for his principal roles in Bryan Fuller’s “Pushing Daisies” and David E. Kelley’s “Boston Public.” McBride has also lent his voice to the Marvel world playing the iconic ‘Nick Fury’ in multiple animated series, including “Avengers Assemble.”

McBride is from Chicago and currently resides in Los Angeles. His birthday is Sept. 23.

Recently, Lowes starred in the original television movie CHRISTMAS TAKES FLIGHT, on the Network. Currently, she stars in Shonda Rhimes’s Netflix series “Inventing Anna,” alongside Anna Chlumsky, Julia Garner and Laverne Cox.

Lowes is in the fourth season of her popular parenting podcast, “Katie’s Crib,” which is produced by Shondaland in partnership with iHeartRadio. “Katie’s Crib,” which launched in Spring 2018, is a weekly podcast covering the unexpected joys, pains, foibles, and hilarity of new motherhood. Each episode highlights a specific parenting issue from a variety of different points of view. Lowes conducts frank, intimate conversation with fellow moms (such as A-List actresses Kristen Bell, America Ferrera, and more) about the ups and downs of being a new parent.

In summer 2021, Lowes lent her voice to Netflix’s animated film “Vivo.” The film also featured voices from Lin-Manuel Miranda, Zoe Saldana, Gloria Estefan, Nicole Byer and more, with Miranda writing several songs for the movie.

In fall 2018, Lowes made her Broadway debut, starring in the Tony-nominated musical “Waitress,” with Katharine McPhee. Lowes played the role of ‘Dawn’ opposite her real-life husband, actor Adam Shapiro.

Lowes is no stranger to the big or small screen. Over the years she has appeared in big budget films, such as Disney’s “Ralph Breaks the Internet” and Dreamworks’ “Transformers 2,” Bad Robot’s “Super 8” directed by JJ Abrams and was the voice of Abigail in the 2015 Academy Award-winning animated feature film “Big Hero 6.” In addition, she voiced an animated character in the 2015 Academy Award-winning animated short film, “Feast,” as well as the Oscar-nominated Disney film “Wreck It Ralph.” Lowes was the inspiration behind the motion and movement work for Idina Menzel’s character, Elsa, in the movie “Frozen.”

Additionally, she has appeared in several independent films, including “Dinner for Four,” “The Job,” “Callers” and “Bear” and “Café.” She has been a guest star on hit series, such as “The Closer,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Private Practice,” “Leverage,” “Castle,” “The Sopranos,” “NCIS,” on the Network, and was a series regular on “Easy Money,” created by producers of “The Sopranos.”

TV Interview!

Michael Bolton at "American Song Contest" on NBC

Interview with Michael Bolton at “American Song Contest” on NBC by Suzanne 3/28/22

It was great to speak with this legend a second time. Last week, Michael Bolton competed in the first episode of “American Song Contest” on NBC. This is a show similar to “Eurovision.” NBC had this great after-show virtual red carpet for those of us in the press. Unfortunately, between technical problems, background noise, and Michael Bolton being a very quiet speaker, we weren’t able to hear or understand him, nor could we get a good video! Fortunately, it was announced during this week’s show that Michael had been voted to continue in the next round, so NBC was able to get us this short Zoom interview with him to make up for last week. I’m so grateful and happy!

Enjoy this nice CLEAR video! We’ll have the transcript up later.

Chase: [ Sighs ]

Dante: Oh! There he is. Hey. Good to have you back.

Chase: It’s good to be back in the squad room. I missed this place.

Dante: Did you? You’re not gonna cry, are you?

Chase: No, come on.

Dante: Ha. Do you want me to give you a minute with the desk? Get reacquainted? What’s going on? The suspension’s over? I-I-I’m not in the loop.

Chase: No, I’ve still got 54 days, 11 hours, and…33 minutes. But who’s counting? I’m only here because I volunteered to organize this year’s community softball league. I should be fully reinstated in time to play.

Dante: Oh, that’s nice of you. I mean, uh, we’ll be looking forward to having you back on the team and the force. And if it was up to me, you would have been reinstated just for what you did for helping out Maxie’s baby.

Chase: Oh, I just helped out a little bit at the end. Brook Lynn’s the real hero.

Lawyer: Everything is in order. All that’s left to do is take this to the stock exchange. I’ll be in touch.

Lucy: Okay. Thank you so much for your time. We appreciate it. And of course, we will be waiting. Okay, take care, see you soon, bye. Thank you. [ Inhales deeply ] [ Screams ] Oh, my goodness! It’s happening. We did it. I am so proud of all of us. All our hard work we did together. You guys, we are such a team, and I just cannot wait to celebrate all our accomplishments at the IPO launch party. Yes.

Maxie: That’s coming up April 5th.

Brook Lynn: Oh, right.

Lucy: Right. Okay. Okay. [ Exhales deeply ] Focus. When we hear from the lawyer, while we wait, let’s just finalize everything. Okay. Wait. Guest list, refreshments, the food and drink, and the entertainment, and then let the fun begin.

Maxie: Yeah!

Lucy: Wooh!

Brando: [ Chuckles ] You mean that PB&J sandwich with stale bread didn’t do it for you?

Sasha: [ Laughs ]

Brando: Hmm. I guess that is the downside of having an extended honeymoon. No groceries.

Sasha: I can live with that.

Brando: Yeah, me too. You know, I-I really loved our time away, but it is nice to be back as husband and wife.

Sasha: I’m not ready to give up our honeymoon vibe yet. I love it when it’s just you and me.

Portia: He’s late.

Curtis: By one minute.

Portia: Hmm. Yeah. I just don’t know about this. What if he’s not the right fit for Trina? We have no idea.

Curtis: Baby, we’ll never know unless we talk to him. Now, Laura hooked us up, and she said he would know what to do, and I trust her. So let’s just give it a chance. And I know everything will work out. And I’m sure Trina’s in good hands.

[ Knock on door ]

Scott: Oh, hi. Sorry I’m late. The elevator was chock full of people. Hi, Curtis. Scott Baldwin at your service.

Trina: Did you just ask me why I did it? You know I didn’t!

Spencer: I was ready to believe that it was Esme.

Trina: You knew that I’m not capable of doing something like this.

Spencer: I thought so. But there is evidence. And it points to you.

Victor: Ah, Nikolas, glad I found you. We need to talk about Spencer.

Nikolas: Later. Did you see Esme outside?

Victor: Uh, as a matter of fact, I did. As I was pulling in, another car was pulling out. I saw Esme in the back seat.

Nikolas: Who was driving? Which way did they go?

Victor: Well, I-I couldn’t tell. I didn’t think it was unusual. Although, I must say, it did seem like an expensive ride-share for someone with such limited means. What — why are you worried?

Nikolas: I was asking Esme about the video and Spencer. She got really upset. She was keeping something from me. And then she told me that she needed air, but that she would be right back.

Victor: Well, perhaps she felt better and left.

Nikolas: But why? Why would she just take off without a word? I mean, she was obviously holding something back.

Victor: Well, that she most certainly is. Esme could be carrying the next Cassadine heir.

Sonny: Thank you for coming.

Esme: I didn’t have much of a choice.

Sonny: I’m — you know, I’m sorry about my — my associate. He’s — he’s kind of rough around the edges. He doesn’t come from the school of social graces. He’s kind of the — a man of action. I hope he didn’t frighten you.

Esme: Actually, he did.

Sonny: Well, that wasn’t my intention. I just wanted you to come here so we could chat.

Esme: I don’t know why you’d want to chat with me.

Sonny: Oh, I think you do.

Esme: Spence?

Sonny: This is about what you did to my stepdaughter Josslyn.

Maxie: Okay, we really need to finalize music selections and book the artists.

Lucy: Yep, and I happen to have some inspired live performance ideas.

Maxie: Where are we gonna get talent on such short notice?

Lucy: Uh, hello? Lucy Coe, mistress of ceremonies of The Nurses’ Ball.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, but this is the Deception IPO.

Lucy: Yeah, and I happen to be senior equity partner of Deception, and I am just going to ask all the people that I asked to sing for The Nurses’ Ball to sing for our company. Okay? Starting with Amy and Chase.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, about that —

Lucy: Listen, Amy will love it. You know, she is a sucker for the spotlight. So, did you get a chance to ask Chase to sing?

Brook Lynn: So the thing is that I —

Lucy: No, you’re not hearing me. We need him to sing. So why didn’t you nail him down when he happened to be by here the other day?

Brook Lynn: So…

[ Knock on door ]

Gladys: Am I interrupting anything? Are you guys still talking about the IPO?

Lucy: Uh. Yes on both questions.

Brook Lynn: Gladys, what do you want?

Gladys: Stock options. Especially now that Sasha is my daughter-in-law, I’d like to revisit having a personal stake in the company.

Lucy: Ha! Really? So, see, around here, we don’t hand out shares based on nepotism. Oh, you know what, though? If you want to prove your worth to our company, you know what you could do? You could go get us all lunch. And I would love a Caesar salad with lots and lots of little croutons. Brook Lynn needs me here.

Brook Lynn: Actually, I don’t. I’ll take a chicken pasta salad.

Maxie: Make that two.

Lucy: Okay. Two chicken pasta salads and that Caesar. Lots of little tiny croutons. Thank you. See you soon. Bye-bye. Ta.

[ Door closes ]

Lucy: Oh, good grief. Okay, enough of the distractions. We really, really have a million things to do, right? We — we got to get on this, and the first thing is, you have got to get Chase to sing. Go talk to him.

Brook Lynn: I’m sorry, guys, but the answer is no.

Dante: You know, I-I gotta hand it to Brook Lynn. I mean, I knew she could scheme with the best of them, but this is next-level-type stuff. She didn’t even get anything out of this.

Chase: Well, that’s what I mean. Brook Lynn went into it for the wrong reasons but wound up doing everything right.

Dante: Yeah. Who would have thought that faking a pregnancy would turn out to be a noble gesture?

Chase: She thought she was looking out for her family.

Dante: Yeah, I know, but t-that’s Brook Lynn for you right there. She’s a walking contradiction. I mean, I told you, we grew up together. As kids, she — she even then had this heart underneath all the selfish pranks she used to pull.

Chase: People grow up.

Dante: Well, hopefully she did. I mean, hopefully that’s — that’s what this is and not just a one-off. And then the real Brook Lynn, the old-school selfish Brook Lynn just comes back out again.

Chase: Well, you know what? Brook Lynn today is kind and caring, and I don’t like you talking about her like this.

Dante: Whoa. Whoa, where’s this coming from? You’re the one who told me you couldn’t trust her.

Brando: We are getting our food to go.

Sasha: Thanks, husband.

Brando: Ooh. I love it when you call me that.

Sasha: I love it when you call me you wife. So, we’re doing this?

Brando: Yes, definitely. And since no one knows we’re in town yet, we can just try and ease our way back into reality. Um, but there are a few things that we do need to talk about immediately now that we’re married.

Scott: So, let me say this. I-I’m sorry that this happened to Trina. I’ve reviewed the case, and, yeah, I-it’s a doozy.

Portia: My daughter didn’t do the things that she was charged with, Mr. Baldwin. And I know that people probably say that to you all the time, but she didn’t. She — she just could never. It’s not her.

Scott: Okay, so if you want me to say that I believe her, I do. I really do. So I got a guy in the DA’s office, so I know what the evidence is, and the burden of proof is on the prosecution. And this case is loaded with opportunities to cast reasonable doubt.

Spencer: The whole time you were trying to convince me that the sex tape was Esme’s fault, you had that phone with that video.

Trina: I’ve never seen that phone before. Someone set me up.

Spencer: You mean Esme?

Trina: That’s the only thing that makes sense.

Spencer: How did she do it?

Trina: I don’t know. How does she do half the stuff she’s done? She’s figured it out somehow.

Spencer: We weren’t at the cabin when that video was taken, but I was there long enough to know that you were really drunk and mad about Joss and Esme.

Trina: I don’t remember being mad at Joss.

Spencer: That’s exactly right. You don’t remember what you did or didn’t do. But Esme was next to me pretty much all the time. So when would she have had the time to frame you?

Trina: Are you really trying to accuse me of this?

Spencer: Look, I’m not judging you. I’ve done enough that I’m in no position to do that. I’m just trying to understand.

Trina: Understand this. I didn’t do it.

Spencer: I want to believe you.

Trina: Then why can’t you?!

Nikolas: Esme might be pregnant?

Victor: Yeah, Spencer said they don’t know for certain yet.

Nikolas: That would explain why she’s been so emotional. She’s dealing with a lot right now.

Victor: Yeah, I heard about the breakup.

Nikolas: Obviously, Spencer knows. How is he dealing with all of this?

Victor: Well, he’s pretty shaken up, as you can imagine. That’s why I came to find you. If Esme is indeed pregnant, then that baby will be a Cassadine. They’re both going to need our support.

Nikolas: Maybe we should talk about this some place more private. I’m just gonna call Esme and make sure she got back to Kelly’s all right.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Victor: What do you got there?

Nikolas: This is Esme’s phone.

Esme: I haven’t done anything to Joss.

Sonny: You know what you did, and you’re gonna make it right.

Esme: W-wait, is this about that unfortunate video of Joss and cam?

Sonny: [ Snaps fingers ] Got it.

Esme: The PCPD arrested someone for that. It — it wasn’t me.

Sonny: You know, I have very good instincts, and they’re telling me that Trina Robinson wouldn’t do that.

Esme: You’ve never been wrong?

Sonny: Never. And your name is being tossed around a lot.

Esme: It’s no secret that Joss and I don’t get along, but I would never do that to her. Please. You have to believe me!

Sonny: Don’t do that. There’s no need for that. I called you here ’cause I want to know the truth.

Esme: I am telling the truth. What have I done to you that would make you think the worst of me?

Sonny: You don’t remember the hospital? When you lied to me?

Esme: If you mean the time I mistakenly told you that Nikolas and Ava were taking Avery out of the country —

Sonny: Yeah, that’s it.

Esme: That was a misunderstanding. One I regretted.

Sonny: Why? Because it led to the truth about what you did to Ava a-and Nikolas?

Esme: Because I didn’t mean for anything bad to happen to your daughter.

Sonny: Now you’re lying to my face. You and Spencer meant every horrible thing that was done to Ava. And then to reach your goals, you involved my daughter twice. Once with the — with the teddy bear. And the other time when — when you lied that Nikolas and Ava left with — with my daughter.

Esme: I mean, I regret the things that Spence and I did, but I-I apologized to you. Didn’t you forgive me?

Sonny: Yeah, I did.

Esme: But you didn’t forget.

Sonny: I have a long memory, especially when somebody hurts my family. And now you’ve hurt Josslyn. [ Whispering ] Let’s save everybody a lot of time. And just admit you were behind the sex tape.

Spencer: I believed you when it was your word against Esme’s. What you say means a lot to me. But now there is evidence.

Trina: Which was planted, because, like I keep telling you, Esme set me up.

Spencer: Esme and I have been through a lot.

Trina: Then you should know what she’s capable of.

Spencer: Yes, and I’ve seen the worst in her. But I was the instigator when she did those… things. She thought that she was helping me because she loved me.

Trina: See, the difference between me and Esme is that I would never… I could never intentionally hurt a person.

Spencer: You’ve done things for me you wouldn’t normally do. Like lie. If I stoked those impulses in Esme, maybe I did the same to you.

Chase: Okay, yeah, Brook Lynn has done some shady things, but people do change, and it’s hard when everyone keeps dredging up who they used to be. But I was there during some of the toughest times. She was taking heat from all sides, and I saw how it affected her. And she kept on protecting Bailey.

Dante: Aha. See, I was right. You — you do have feelings for her.

Chase: We went through something significant together. And I know that Brook Lynn is more than what you’re saying.

Dante: Hey, look, man, I didn’t mean anything by it. But that’s the beauty of a real friend, they see you for who you are, and they like you anyway.

Chase: Just give Brook Lynn a little more credit. That’s all I’m saying.

Brook Lynn: I can’t ask Chase to do the duet. I feel like I’d be taking advantage of our friendship.

Lucy: What? Wait a minute! This is the same guy who pretended to be a father who wasn’t a father all to help you protect Maxie’s baby. This — this is just a teeny, tiny little favor in comparison.

Maxie: Okay, wait, lucy. I see Brook Lynn’s point. We owe Chase for everything he’s done already. So let’s explore other options.

Lucy: What?! What good are friends if you can’t guilt them into singing for your company? Come on. I have guilted tons of people over my li– never mind. Never you mind. I give up for a moment. Maxie, I need you to talk some sense into yourself, then talk sense into this one. I need gummies! And I’m gonna go get them.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Brook Lynn: Thank you.

Maxie: Not a problem. Now that it’s just the two of us, what’s your deal? Do you not want Chase around?

Brook Lynn: That’s not it. It’s the exact opposite.

Sasha: What needs our attention? Should I be worried?

Brando: Well, I hope not. I just wanted to point out that we’re married and we don’t live together.

Sasha: Yeah, well, we should figure that out. But let’s just enjoy being married for now.

Brando: Okay. It’s not like we do things in the right order.

Sasha: Look, I-I know that our relationship has been a little unorthodox, but I’m happy where we are now.

Brando: Me too.

Sasha: So let’s just enjoy this feeling a little longer.

Gladys: Brando, you’re back! I missed you so much.

Brando: Mm-hmm.

Glady: [ Sighs ] Hello, Sasha. You’re looking well. If I’d known you were coming back, I would have asked for the day off from work.

Sasha: It’s probably best you didn’t. I’m sure deception is busy with the IPO.

Gladys: Oh, yes. Oh, oh. It’s all anyone is talking about. And since what’s Sasha’s is yours now, you’ll be living on easy street. You can retire early.

Brando: Ma, come on. I’m keeping the garage.

Gladys: Have it your way. But you’ll need somewhere to work on all the cars you’ll be collecting. But look, I got to put in this lunch order. Do not go anywhere. I want to hear all about the honeymoon.

Brando: Too late to make a run for it.

Sasha: So much for easing back into reality.

Victor: Are you sure that’s Esme’s phone?

Nikolas: I saw it earlier.

Victor: Well, perhaps she dropped it.

Nikolas: No, Esme would need her phone for the updates with the ride-share. She’d notice if she didn’t have it, and she would have come back for it by now.

Victor: Well, maybe she caught a ride with a friend.

Nikolas: No, Esme told me she doesn’t have any friends. She said everyone blames her for the sex tape.

Victor: Oh, yeah, I read about that. Carly Corinthos’ daughter, right?

Nikolas: Sonny? What about him?

Esme: He’s had it in for me ever since I stretched the truth about you and Ava leaving town with Avery.

Nikolas: We have to go.

Victor: Go where?

Nikolas: Sonny Corinthos has her.

Maxie: Explain, please. You want Chase around, but you don’t want him to sing at the IPO launch party because of Amy?

Brook Lynn: Because of me and my feelings.

Maxie: Oh, now we’re getting somewhere.

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ]

Maxie: See, I knew something was going on because you were acting really weird around him the other day. This is why you hustled him out of here and didn’t want to talk to him about singing the duet.

Brook Lynn: Look, Chase has made it clear that he just wants to be friends, so I have to keep my distance until, you know, I can get a handle on my feelings, get back to the friend zone. So I really don’t want to be asking Chase for any favors right now. I don’t even want to see him at the launch party, to be honest.

Lucy: Chase! Just the man I wanted to see. Isn’t that funny how the cosmos works? You put the energy out there, and then there you are.

Gradys: Well, at least you had a nice honeymoon, considering you got married out of the blue. Um, and the rings aren’t bad, though I might have gone for something a little flashier.

Brando: I picked them out, and I was lucky to find a jewelry store nearby.

Gladys: Yeah. Yeah. Like buying that garage you got married in.

Brando: Ma.

Gladys: Listen, I gave you my blessing, and I meant it. Believe me, I only want what’s best for you both.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Brando: Oh. I need to take this. I’ll be right back.

Gladys: Now that it’s just us girls, let me tell you how I really feel about this elopement.

Scott: I will have witnesses testifying to Trina’s stellar character and lack of motive. Cameron and Josslyn, I’ll get them. They should have significant sway.

Curtis: Okay. But first, I think we have to get through the arraignment. What’s that look like?

Scott: Well, it could go two ways. The best is that they waive bail because there’s no priors. The worst is they take it up a notch, you know, to a high profile because of Josslyn’s stepfather. But it still comes down to Trina’s character, which is really great. I mean, she at PCU, 4.0. She’s got a job. Teachers love her. You know, a lot of friends. And your reputation as Chief of Internal Medicine.

Portia: I see you’ve definitely done your homework, Mr. Baldwin.

Scott: I see Cameron as my grandson, so I would never represent anybody that would do this to him.

Curtis: Uh, well, we should get to the arraignment. Can’t be late.

Scott: Yeah, you’re right. Judges do not like it when you’re late. So I’ll see you there.

Curtis: Well, feel better about him?

Portia: We, uh… we better get going.

Curtis: Whoa, whoa. Hold up. Are you okay?

Portia: [ Voice breaking ] I will be. I will be after all of this is over. But it’s just — I just need to stay strong for Trina right now. [ Sighs ]

Curtis: Okay. Look, look, look. I know everything’s gonna be okay, all right? But I need you to know that whatever happens, I’ve got you.

Portia: Mm-hmm.

Trina: I knew you were self-centered, but this — this is next level. I may have gone against my instincts and my principles by covering for you, but that does not compare to making a sex tape of Joss and Cameron, my best friends, and posting it. I would never do that to anyone for any reason.

Spencer: But you were drunk, Trina, and you admitted to a lot of buried feelings about Joss and Cam being together.

Trina: How can you even consider that I did this? I had faith in you when everyone told me that you didn’t deserve it. All I had was a gut feeling that you were a good guy deep down. Where’s that good guy now? Was I wrong all along?

Spencer: It’s not that simple for me.

Trina: You know the truth in your heart. But you just don’t want to see it. You’re still blind to Esme — after everything she’s done.

Spencer: Everything she’s done has been for me and my family.

Maxie: Chase, it is so good to see you. What brings you by?

Chase: I’m following up with H.R. About the softball league to get the charity donation set up.

Maxie: Oh, man. They’re out today. Recruitment event.

Lucy: Yeah, but boy, oh, boy, are we glad you showed up.

Maxie: You know, Chase, on your way in, did you happen to see Gladys Corbin?

Chase: Uh, no.

Maxie: Typical Gladys. Lucy, why don’t we go to the restaurant and look for her? And if she’s not there, we can have a working lunch.

Lucy: Well, no, but I-I would really like to a–

Maxie: It’ll be great, and after, I’ll get you some gummies.

[ Door closes ]

Chase: What was that all about?

Brook Lynn: Oh. You know Lucy. She probably just wants to change the color of the softball jerseys or something.

Chase: Are you gonna play?

Brook Lynn: I haven’t really thought about it.

Chase: You should. Be fun seeing you around the diamond.

Brook Lynn: Yeah?

Chase: Yeah.

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ] Actually, um… Lucy wants to get some singers to perform at the launch party. You remember that duet I wrote? I’d really love for you to sing it…with Amy. Plus, it’d be really fun to see you there. So what do you say?

Trina: What do you mean, your family? Your father? Because Esme sure hasn’t done a thing for Nikolas and Ava.

Spencer: I mean the Cassadines. My family. Esme is included in that.

Trina: How? By pushing her way into it?

Spencer: No, she’s a part of it now because she — because she might be carrying my child.

Trina: Esme might be pregnant with your baby? Hmm. That explains why you have to see the best in her. And the worst in me.

Spencer: Trina, you have to understand.

Trina: Here’s what I understand. From the moment I met you, my life has gotten worse. So many times, I looked the other direction when I shouldn’t have to protect you. And now I’m arrested because of your girlfriend’s lies! And you want me to understand? I understand that you should know me better than that. So if you can’t look me in my eyes and tell me you know I had nothing to do with this, then I’m done. I’m through! We have nothing left to say to each other.

Spencer: I, uh…

Trina: You should go check on Esme. You two deserve each other.

Spencer: Trina.

Trina: Leave!

Officer: Time to go. Come with me.

Sonny: Neither of us are going anywhere until you tell me the truth.

Esme: I have told you. I didn’t do it.

Sonny: Okay. You hungry? You want something to eat?

Esme: You can’t keep me here forever.

Sonny: You know, I’ve had my share of regrets. Um…choices I can’t take back. But it doesn’t define you. You can step up right now, take responsibility for your actions, make amends to the people who you have hurt, and just move forward.

Esme: Some things you can’t make up for.

Sonny: True. The people you’ve hurt are not obligated to, uh, forgive you. And sometimes you can’t make it right by them. But you know what? You keep working on that. You know why? To better yourself for you and the people that are going to come into your life. You’ve played games with Avery, Ava, and Nikolas. And now… you’ve hurt Josslyn and Cam. There’s a young woman sitting behind bars right now. You can make it right. All you gotta do… is confess.

Sonny’s Associate: Where do you think you’re going?

Nikolas: I need see to Sonny.

Sonny’s Associate: He’s busy.

Nikolas: Yeah, I’ll bet.

Victor: Hey, take your hands off my nephew.

Nikolas: Where is she?

Esme: Help me!

Sasha: I don’t expect you to understand why we eloped, but that is what felt right in the moment.

Gladys: That is my concern right there — “in the moment.” Marriage is a big step. You two went on that trip to deal with some pretty weighty issues in your relationship, and you came back married. Just doesn’t seem like you thought it through.

Dante: Trina’s in the interrogation room.

Portia: Oh, you really have some nerve showing up here after what that vile girlfriend of yours did to my daughter.

Chase: So, that’s why lucy was fawning over me. The last time that happened, I was in the men’s locker room just out of the shower.

Brook Lynn: What?

Chase: The first time that she recruited me for The Nurses’ Ball. She basically ambushed me. I had to say yes. It was the only way I could get dressed.

Brook Lynn: Right. Well, um, we all know what a great singer you are because of how great of a success you’ve been at the nurses’ ball.

Chase: Look, I’m — I’m flattered, but I’m not a performer. The only reason I sing at The Nurses’ Ball is ’cause it’s for charity.

Brook Lynn: Making people feel beautiful may not fit into the definition of charity, but it’s still worthwhile. Remember you even said that what we do here at Deception is interesting.

Chase: Look, my suspension is up in a few months. I kind of have to keep up appearances. Singing for — for charity, it’s — it’s one thing, but I don’t know how it would look to sing for a cosmetics company.

Brook Lynn: It’s fine. I get it. You have an image to maintain. You don’t fit into my world.

Sasha: Our decision to get married was spur of the moment. But Brando and I talked it through, and we know that it’s the right decision. I love Brando so much more than I thought was possible. You raised a good son, Gladys, and I promise you I am gonna make him happy. I can already see being married to you makes Brando happy. I just don’t want him getting hurt. And I can’t deny we’ve had issues. But he means everything to me.

Brando: Look who I found.

Lucy: There she is — a married lady. Congratulations.

Sasha: Thank you.

Lucy: Oh, I’m so happy.

Maxie: Yeah, I should be mad at you for not letting me plan your wedding, but I’m just to happy for you.

Sasha: Oh, thank you. We’re pretty happy ourselves.

Lucy: Mm, I bet. Hey, listen, the launch party is on track. But after we celebrate the IPO and Deception’s fabulous future, we are gonna throw another fabulous, big, huge party for both of you.

Maxie: Yes! A “happy marriage” party. We’ll go all out. Everyone will be there.

Gladys: Now we’re talking.

Brando: Thank you guys so much. That’s very generous.

Sasha: Totally not necessary.

Maxi: Nonsense. Getting married is a big deal. It deserves to be celebrated properly.

Sasha: But we are already married.

Lucy: So who cares? It’ll be great.

Brando: Yeah. I’ll take any excuse to celebrate my beautiful new wife.

Sasha: Well, when you put it like that, how can I say no?

Dante: Are we gonna have a problem here, Spencer?

Spencer: No, sir.

Dante: Good. Do you want to go see Trina now?

Curtis: Portia?

Portia: Yeah, I’m fine. I don’t have time to deal with you today ’cause my daughter needs me.

Curtis: Let’s go. I’ll, uh… I’ll give you a minute.

Portia: Okay.

Dante: Uh, you know what, Spencer? On second thought, there’s nothing really for you to do here. In fact, I think you’d be making things worse. So why don’t you help out Trina and her mom and get out of here?

Portia: Oh, baby, I’m sorry you’re going through this.

[ Door closes ]

Portia: But I want you to remember that you’re gonna be home in just a little while. And Scott Baldwin is your lawyer. He believes in you. He believes in your case. And when you walk into that courtroom, I want you to walk up there with your chin up. You hear me? And your head held high.

Trina: [ Voice breaking ] I didn’t do it, mom.

Portia: Oh, baby, I know you didn’t. The truth is gonna come out.

Nikolas: Esme! Sonny, you let her go!

Esme: [ Sobbing ]

Nikolas: Are you okay? Esme, are you okay? Sonny, what the hell?

Sonny: We were just talking. Esme, if you want to say anything, you know where to find me.

Nikolas: That’s enough, Sonny.

Sonny: [ Chuckles ] Okay. We’re done.

Victor: Oh, I don’t think so. You and I are just getting started.

Lucy: Once deception is officially public, we are gonna focus all our time and attention on a great, big, wonderful wedding party. Oh, wow, I just realized folks are gonna flip out when they find out the face of deception is married.

Maxie: Are you okay?

Sasha: [ Sighs ] Just a long day of traveling.

Maxie: Are you sure? I’m fine, yeah. I — I’m fantastic. I have the perfect husband, super thoughtful friends. Why don’t you guys catch me up on the IPO? I missed so much. Okay. Have a seat.

Lucy: Yeah, yeah. Thanks. Here you go.

Maxie: Thank you.

Brando: You’re welcome.

Sasha: Excuse me a moment.

Brando: Uh…

Gladys: She sure bolted out of here.

Brando: Yeah, I-I think you guys just surprised us. She’s probably a little overwhelmed with everything. But, uh, don’t worry. You know, Sasha can take care of herself.

Sasha: Siena, hi. It’s Sasha. Yeah. Yeah. I need something to get me through. How soon can you meet?

Chase: I-I really didn’t mean to imply anything negative about you or your job.

Brook Lynn: No, it’s fine. I understand where you’re coming from. You’re — you’re a cop, not a singer. You want to focus on getting off suspension and getting back out on the job. I get it.

Chase: So we’re good?

Brook Lynn: Yeah, of course. Look, I better get back to work. I promised Maxie that I’d run some of these numbers. Just shut the door on your way out, okay?

Chase: Okay. See ya.

Scott: We all set?

Dante: It’s time to go.

Curtis: How you holding up?

Trina: I’m okay. Thanks.

Curtis: You’re better than okay. You’re a champ. Now, come on, let’s go.

Nikolas: [ Sighs ] Are you sure you’re okay? Only because of you. I mean, you saved me. I can’t thank you enough.

Victor: I’m putting you on notice, Mr. Corinthos. Stay away from my family.

Sonny: Spencer is my family, too. And, uh, what happens to him or if anybody influences him in any way, it concerns me, especially if they’re coming after my family.

Victor: You’ve been warned.

Sonny: Really?

Victor: The Cassadines always come out on top one way or another. Keep harassing my family, and you’ll learn that the hard way.

Sonny: I have faced down men a lot more intimidating than you, and I’m still standing. So if you want to take the first shot, believe me, I will finish the fight.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Spencer (to Esme): Why haven’t you taken that home pregnancy test yet?

Ava (to Joss and Cam): I know it’s difficult for you to trust me, but this time you’re gonna have to.

Scott: I’m gonna have to hear you say it.

Alexis: Oh, I never forget a face.

Nina (to Harmony): Michael and Willow want a fight, they’ll get a fight.

Brick (to Sonny): My brother, that’s not for you.

Trina: I plead…

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I don’t know how much longer I can do this. Sheila, keeping your secret doesn’t feel right and will you just write it out because it’s a means to an end. Thomas, what you did is despicable switching champagne labels to get Brooke drunk. She’s an alcoholic, but you knew that you did it anyway. You traded Brook’s Sobriety for a future with your.

Come on this. This is, this has a lot more to do when with just Finn, I did this for you, for your parents. I don’t wanna hear that, Sheila, that you did this for me and my mom and my sister. Like this is some selfless act. It’s not. You wanted a family with your son and what about Brooke? What about Brooke and my dad?

Don’t they deserve to know the truth? Brooke would not have kissed Deacon on New Year’s Eve if she wasn’t wasted. And the only reason for that is because you orchestrated the whole thing. I want you to think very carefully about this, Thomas. You say a word to anyone and you can kiss your family’s future.

Goodbye. What good is reuniting my family? If it’s built on a packet of lies,

you gotta stop. I can’t stop rich. This is consuming me. You’ve gotta stop beating yourself up. I need to know why I dranked that night. I can’t move forward with my life until.

Got a bad night. Yeah. You want yourself, I don’t even know who that person was. You don’t have to know. You’re never gonna meet her. . That’s why you have sponsors. That’s why you go to meetings. Leave the past in the past. Stop torturing yourself, please. I’m afraid to look into the future without you in it.

Logan Bridge. We’ve overcome so much. We’ve come so far. So why would I do this? Why would I hurt and try to destroy our marriage like that? I wouldn’t do that. Don’t you see? Come on. There’s something going on here. Something else. I don’t know what it is, but I have this feeling it’s something or someone working against us.

It’s already done. Thomas, we’re at the finish line. Just bite your tongue. It’s not already done. This is a lie by omission. Okay. And lies eat you from the inside out. Yeah. Well, there’s something else you need to know, Thomas, about our little meeting in the alley. Uh, I, um, actually can’t talk right now. I gotta go, okay.

You better doesn’t want everything for me. I not lose my relationship with my son,

Finn. How good I thought you might be down with a patient. This is a nice surprise. I’m expect to see my gorgeous. What something wrong? I don’t, no, I, I don’t, I don’t even know what to say. No. The kids, the kids are fine. I just, I don’t even know where we begin. What, what happened? It’s your mother, Sheila.

She’s back to her old manipulative ways.

Are you sure that you weren’t just trying to see dad again? . I’m kidding. I’m not actually, I’m not . Ugh. You and stuff. We just want you to be happy. I know that you wanna see us together and you want that too, right? Of course, of course. If, if the circumstances were right, but at the moment, they’re, they’re not.

Right.

You’ve made Dad so happy and you guys seem perfect together, and his relationship with Brooke, it’s never been the healthiest. I mean, it is. Toxic almost since day one. She’s heard him over and over again. I’m not just talking about the most recent incident, I’m talking about all the things that she did in the past.

Oh, I know. This has gone on for such a long time. And this most recent situation, you know, Brooke, kissing Deacon and Deacon sleeping over and her lying about the whole night. It was, it was Brooke defending Deacon that sent her dad over the edge. and a as it stands, you know, even though your dad says that he wants to come home, Brooke is your father’s wife.

You and I had disagreements about Deacon when he came back into our lives. I thought we reached a middle ground and we were doing it for hope. For my daughter, for her sake. But then of course I messed up and I did what I did and I, I didn’t realize how weak and pathetic I, you’re not any of those things.

You’re one of the strongest people I know. And as far as that night, I think that is something that both of us would like to disappear, but it won’t. No, it won’t. We just have to move forward and we can do that because we were happy. We were content with our lives rich. We had everything we ever wanted.

And then this feeling just kind of started creeping in this feeling of evil. I don’t even know how to describe. This force that started taking over, and I’m telling you, my gut kept saying, well, I was screaming at me actually to keep digging, keep on searching for the answers, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do.

You know, no matter how hard you try, you’re never gonna be able to clean up that mess. That is your life. Okay? In the spirit of brevity, what’s going on? I’ve been so patient, deacon, coming to la, staying in that hotel, I hoping for a real relationship with my son, a, a chance to connect with my son and my grandson being what they want me to be.

What’s getting. You know, I, I remember this woman, she looked a lot like you who said, I always get what I want. And what happened to that plucky, albeit evil genius, where did she go? you two make me laugh, but things aren’t going quite as planned, and I’m really starting to wonder if I’m even gonna have a future with Finn as long as he’s married to.

What are you talking about? My suspicions about Thomas, right? Yeah. You said he’s not acting like himself. Yeah, and then I found him talking to Sheila in the alley behind El Jino. Uh, Stephanie, I think he’s just being, he’s being protective. He’s trying to look out for you guy. No, that’s not what it’s about.

It’s not that he wasn’t telling Sheila to keep her distance from us. Okay. Then what were they doing? I mean, what? What are you getting at? I knew it. I knew something was going on that Sheila was stirring the pod, trying to become BFFs with my mom showing up at her work. I told her to stop doing that. It’s like she’s been plotting this the whole time.

Finn, I even want to know your mom attacked Brooke. What? Yeah, Brooks, new Year’s Eve, the booze, kissing deacon, inviting deacon into my father’s bed. That was all set in motion by your mother.

I must have done something right in this life to have raised such wonderful kids. You’ve always been there for us. And if there’s a chance that we could do something for you, I’m sure Stephanie would agree, I we would do anything for you. Thomas, you have grown into such a wonderful, caring, honest young man.

I love you and dad so much, and I, I just want to do what’s best for you. I hate to see you like, I thought you’d be better off without me, but I was wrong. I, I miss you all the time. I’m concerned about you. Oh, I can’t get rid of this feeling. You know, it’s kind of like a loop going round and around my head 24 hours a day, and I just can’t stop thinking about what I did to you and how I hurt you.

Can you do me a favor? Can you try not to lose sight of who you are in all this things you’ve done in your life? Things you’ve accomplished, but my life means nothing to me without you in it. You have to know that I’m not gonna give up on this rich, I want you to come home. I never should have said you free.

I never should have said that I was gonna give you a divorce. We will survive this some. Some way we will find our way back to each other.

Sheila Sabotage, Brooke, just slow down. Okay. What does my mom have to do with New Year’s Eve? Sheila changed the labels on the bottles. Brooke thought she was having non-alcoholic champagne, but she was actually drinking the real stuff, and I think that’s what caused her to start doing shots of vodka.

Brooke, who’s an alcoholic, like obviously I’m not the biggest fan of Brooke, but what your mother did is sick and evil, and that just proves that she hasn’t changed. Who told you? I like, how do you even know that this is true? I overheard Thomas talking to Sheila on the phone. I, I don’t know how he found out, but he’s been keeping this a secret and I, I think that he wanted to tell my dad in Brooke, but Sheila is trying to get him to stay silent.

Okay. This, this is sounding insane. I, why would Sheila do that? To br for what purpose? I, I, I’m not sure. All I know is that, She wants to be part of your life. She wants to be welcomed in her family, but that is not happening now. We have to stay away from her. This just proves that Sheila cannot be trusted.

Have you talked to your brother about this? No. No. I I was eavesdropping. He was still on the phone with was Sheila when I left. Okay. Look, I, I have a patient being rushed to the icu. Stephanie, look, you have every reason to be upset, and I’m hoping that this is just some big misunderstanding and that you’re wrong about Sheila.

I mean, I love you.

Stuffy. Are you available to. Well, it depends. Are you ready to show your mother-in-law a little respect? Because our last conversation was anything but but fuzzy and and inviting. I need to speak with you. It’s important. Where are you?

I’m at El Zinos. As a matter of fact, I’ll be right there.

Yeah. You and dad have been, uh, apart for all the wrong reasons. You’ve been separated for too long. We’re just, we’re finding each other again. It’s been, it’s been really nice though, you know, spending time with him and the grandkids making breakfast together. Yeah. Well, we are always gonna have that, though.

You’re always gonna have our family together. You, you have your kids, right. And our kids. , you want more right now. Your dad needs to heal. You know? So whatever, whatever happens is, is gonna happen. Um, now you have the opportunity to be a couple again, and if things keep going the way they are, well then you can end up together and have the life you’ve always wanted.

Yeah. And we will just see how everything works out, won’t we? Thank you for believing in us.

I can’t imagine that there’s anything in the world that you wouldn’t do to make sure your father and I end up together.

I will prove my loyalty to you, rich. I’m gonna show you that I’m not that woman that I turned into that night. I wanna be somebody that you could be proud of.

If you could see yourself the way that I see you, even for one second, you are and always will be the love of my life. There’s no way I’m ever gonna let anybody or anything come between us.

Yeah, I made a mess with us, but I also believe that I have the power to fix. And that’s exactly what I’m gonna hold onto.

Just keep quiet and you’re going to have the happily ever after the family that you have always dreamed of. Grandma loves you sweetheart.

I warn for not to come between me and my son, I will be in Finn’s life for many more years to come. What’s that? Oh, nothing. Can I get you another Uhuh?

Stuffy. I’m, I’m really happy that you reached out to me again. I, if you reconsidered I did you find a, a small place in that big heart of yours for me? You know, Sheila, the whole drive over here. I was thinking about what I wanted to say to you. The question of you being part of our lives. I know that’s something that you’ve wanted since returning to Los Angeles, more than you will ever know, and it will be really nice for my kids to be close to their grandmother for Finn to have a real connection to his roots.

You say that you are a different person now. Everything that I do now is for the greater good. I had a hard time believing that in the.

And I still do because now I see you are worse than ever. Oh my gosh. Are we really doing this again? No more games. I know what you did.

I’m done with this. I’m not done with you

alone. God, you’re not going anywhere. You both of me. What the hell do you think you’re doing? You claim to be this reformed woman. You said you put your devious ways behind you. I have. No you haven’t. You are the same twisted sociopath You have always been. Attacking Brooke on New Year’s Eve. She is an alcoholic.

You got her a drink without her knowledge. I know all about your dirty little secret. You don’t change, Sheila. You just find new ways to hurt people. There’s no hope for you. You’re never getting better. Everyone’s gonna know what you did, everyone, and you will never have a place in our lives. Not ever.
