TV Interview!

 

Idris Elba, Archie Panjabi and Max Beesley in "Hijack" on Apple TV+ starting June 28!

Interview with Idris Elba, Archie Panjabi and Max Beesley in “Hijack” on Apple TV+  by Suzanne 6/26/23

This was an early-morning press conference in London that I watched on Zoom. The host took questions from us ahead of time, as well as from the audience. This is a great show that you won’t want to miss, particularly if you love high-stakes drama and action. It was great to watch their chat.

[CHATTER]

[MUSIC STARTS]

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Thank you so much for joining us today. I’ve got to say, I think Hijack might actually be my new favourite show. I don’t know about you guys, but I guess there might be a few fans out there that binged it like I did – oh, yes! We’ve got a round of applause already, isn’t it brilliant? Ok, well, let’s get our glittering cast and creatives out. First up, Idris Elba [AUDIENCE APPLAUSE]; Idris plays Sam Nelson, and he’s executive producer; this is George Kay, writer and executive producer; here we have Archie Panjabi, who plays Zahar Gahfoor; Max Beesley, who plays Daniel O’Farrel; and then we have Jim Field Smith, director and executive producer [ALL APPLAUSE]. Wow. Thank you so much. I mean, I literally think this stage is bowing under the weight of the talented accolades, really. I mean, you guys are a stella team, isn’t it, you are a force, absolute force. So, firstly, I just want to you, you play Sam Nelson, when did you first know, you were going to play Sam?

Idris Elba: Hi everyone, how you doing? Nice to see you all, thanks for coming.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): What happened? How did the script land on you? Was it a conversation with George?

Idris Elba: It was some… made in an alignment of timings. And I think, you know, the idea came… George had the idea and was rearing that, at the same junction I was looking at, you know, Apple and I had a deal that were trying to figure out what we were going to do together, and this came as just an idea from George and then became, you know, the story beats and then the scripts. So… But I knew really much very early when I sat with George and talked about what were trying to achieve and what, you know, the story and the perspective of this story. For me, as a producer and a talent, I was sort of interesting in doing something that, you know, hit the mark in television. I love television, I love making television, I have done for years. I play in the film space as well and I think the- the sort of merger between film and what is film and what is television has gotten smaller, that sort of line. And- and working with George was just like… it was a joy. I was a fan of his work and wanted to make that happen.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Brilliant. Brilliant. I mean, Sam certainly stayed with me. I’ve got to say, like, you know, even that opening shot, it’s almost… the way you’re talking about the crossover between TV and film, it is filmic. I’ve never seen a travelator look so sexy in my life [ALL LAUGH]. Do you know what I mean? And the lens flare and the sun. And I love that motif that we see throughout, which is kind of, you know, you being backlit looking angelic and heroic, which actually brings me, really, I guess to the cinematography, and Jim, at the end.

Jim Field Smith: I thought you were going to say it brings you to Max Beesley.

[ALL LAUGH]

Kate Quilton (Moderator): From angel to another [LAUGHS]. But it is, it is exquisite, I mean, how it’s shot; can you tell us a little bit about how you settled on shooting style and the look and feel of it?

Jim Field Smith:     Well obviously, we spent most of our time trying to make Idris look presentable, which is tough…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Tough gig [LAUGHS].

Jim Field Smith: The biggest thing for us, I suppose, was we’ve got a show that’s set almost exclusively inside of an airplane. And there’s two problems with that, one is to make it engaging dramatically and not make it feel dull and flat, and the other thing is to make it feel like you are actually in an airplane that’s moving through the sky. So, it was sort of definitely very, very challenging, but we had a very talented team that figured out how to solve both of those issues. And I sort of heaped problem on top of problem by saying, you know, we didn’t really want to break this place apart, we wanted to move around the plane and never break through the skin of it, and we didn’t… I didn’t want the thing you sometimes see on screen where everything gets scaled up, we actually… the plane you see in the show is a millimetre for millimetre replication of a- of an airliner. So, we sort of made it as hard for ourselves as we possibly could and hope that translates onto screen into something that feels really convincing, but at the same time, yeah, try to make it look as engaging and sort of pull you into the drama as much as possible.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Mhm. I mean, that must have been challenging. I mean, how many people were on that plane? I mean, obviously we have the two hundred passengers, plus crew…

Jim Field Smith: Well, as many as you see… As many as you see, plus some of them behind the camera, yeah. So, that was sort of everybody boarding a long-haul flight every single day for a hundred twenty days.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): [GASPS]

Idris Elba: In the middle of summer with no AC.

Jim Field Smith: In the middle of summer, yeah.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): How was that for you? I mean, you must be…

Idris Elba: It was great I…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): 6’ 3” ish?

Idris Elba: Yeah [LAUGHS].

Jim Field Smith: He’s been wearing shorts ever since.

Idris Elba: 6’ 3”, but luckily the first-class cabin had the extra legroom.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Oh, ok. I guess you spent maybe half your time there and half at the back…

Idris Elba: Yeah, some of it in the back, yeah. But actually, you know, I think the- the fact that we didn’t break the Episode 2. Idris Elba in "Hijack," premiering June 28, 2023 on Apple TV+.plane apart and make… you know, this is a real plane, just in a studio, and the- the- the confinement of that just really applied to the drama. Even for the crew, you know, figuring out how we’re going to do this top shot without being able to take the roof off was about trying to figure out how to     do that. And, you know, it all sort of led into the claustrophobia of it, so the crew, the actors, you know, everyone was sort of tight, and we’re… it was almost like watching a documentary being made while being in the documentary, you know.

Jim Field Smith: It meant we could keep going more, you know, it meant that we could stay in the moment and let the scene play out more, which, you know, when you’re dealing with a hijacking it’s about people reacting and trying to figure out live, you know, how to get through the next second, how to get through the next minutes. And so, we were able to bring some of that into the actual making of it, you know, we used a lot of unbroken shots, we moved often with Sam’s character… with Idris’ character, Sam, we’re moving with him through the plane. So, we did a lot of that for real, you know. And there was a lot of like, you know, literally people having to hand the camera to each other and stuff like that. But, again, that was, as Idris says, that was all about wanting to feel engaged in the drama of it and not feel like it was artifice or that it was… we were sort of sitting aback and watching it from afar, I wanted it to feel like you’re in that hijack.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Yeah, which you certainly do. I mean, you feel it, it’s a ride, you know what I mean? George, I want to ask you – George is the writer of the project – how did it come about? I mean, where did the… what was the genesis of the idea?

George Kay: I was on a train, actually – I was on the Eurostar, I was doing a lot of work in France – and we were in the Eurostar tunnel and the train stops quite abruptly. And even though I knew everything was alright, it flashed through my mind, what if there’s something going on, on this train? What if it’s happening up the carriages? And I looked around me at the people, the kind of businessman eating his lunch, and the squabbling family, and I thought like, how would we     cope as a group of people if this was a serious incident? Would the tough looking guy really be tough, would the kind of the weedy guy really rise up and actually cover himself in glory and manage to stand up to people. Who are these people really when you look past them as- as- as… you get past your prejudice of those people and how they look. And it kind of put me in mind of blitz spirit and like when the chips are down, how does the British or an international community cope when suddenly thrust into kind of extremes. Then the thought of a plane was much more of a visual, you know, we could really open it up…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): High stakes.

George Kay: High stakes. Also, like a moving society, you know, we’ve got a class system on a plane, you’ve got all sorts of people. But as all the characters experience, whether they’re on the ground or in the plane, that hijacking is a great leveller for all these people and so they really get tested, no matter what their rank, no matter what their class seat they’re sitting on a plane, so it felt like a good setting to take it to a plane.

Idris Elba: So, you’re saying that I’m the weedy guy [ALL LAUGH]. So, that’s what’s really going on here, I didn’t see that.

George Kay: You’re the business guy eating his lunch. On a serious point, what was great was that when Idris came on board to play Sam, we all have our understanding of Idris as an actor and his like… and it’s great to give a role that, I think, that’s kind of a… he doesn’t have those skills of a Royal Marine or an SAS soldier or stuff, he’s really… as a character…

Kate Quilton (Moderator):     But he does in a real life…

George Kay: But he looks like he might. He looks like he might, right, yeah [LAUGHS]. So, it’s quite fun to play with what the hijackers thought… think of Sam Nelson, and what Sam Nelson thinks they think of Sam Nelson. Those are fun layers to exploit.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Yeah. Now, Archie and Max, together, you’re part of the ground force, what’s happening on the ground?

Max Beesley: After you, Archie.

Archie Panjabi: So, yeah, so I am the… Gosh, I was so interested in hearing how it all came about, I completely lost my words [ALL LAUGH]. Zahar’s character first learns about the hijacking and gets together all the authorities and starts a big investigation. We were in a room that… not as narrow as the aircraft, but it was still… it was probably about three times the size of the stage, and the room just got bigger and bigger as it became more tense. Those were stressful scenes though, we all had to stay in one position, we couldn’t move because of the number people in the room, we were watching the monitor with like a dart, which was the aircraft, and really like intense scenes.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Who had it worse?

Archie Panjabi: Sorry?

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Nobody knows who had it worse [LAUGHS].

Archie Panjabi: Yeah, well, I think we did because he was in business class with his feet… first class?

Kate Quilton (Moderator): First.

Archie Panjabi: He was in first. We were kind of packed like sardines too. But we did have, you know, I was telling Idris earlier, we did have a good laugh on the show. It was intense, right, Jim? We had a lot of fun on the show.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): So, when the script first landed with you, did you know immediately, yes, I want to play Zahar?

Archie Panjabi: Well, when I first read it, I think I was sent three and I couldn’t put it down. And then, by the end of the third one, I wanted to know if my character had [LAUGHS] successfully saved the passengers, so I phoned up my agent and said, “I need to read four to seven”, and she said [LAUGHS] so selfish of me. But she said, “do you not want to do it?”, I said “no, I’d love to do it. I just need to know what happens to the passengers” And that’s when I thought this is a brilliant script, it’s really thrilling, it’s going to have audiences at the edge of their seat, so. And Idris was in it, of course, and Max and Jim and [LAUGHS].

Kate Quilton (Moderator): I’ve just been handed a message, which, shall I read this out? Thank you. Ok, thanks, Ernie. Please remind press here in the screening room that while photos are ok, please do not video tape the press conference, thanks, Ernie. Running in a rule! Thank you. So, no videos but photos are great. So, sorry. Sorry to interrupt! [LAUGHS]. Brilliant, so, Max, I think you have maybe one of the best entrances possible, you know, just that killer reveal at the beginning     of the episode where you literally just roll into frame and it’s… it’s a couple of seconds but we learn so much. In terms of storytelling, it is brilliant. I mean, for you, when you first read the script, did you think, ok, I’m in, this is brilliant?

Max Beesley: Well, I… Interestingly enough, Idris is very kind enough to suggest me for the role to the producers, which was lovely, and then- and then when I got the scripts, the first thing I always look at is who’s written it, because I write myself and I love… I like good writing. And I saw it was George, and then Jim as a director, and I’d seen Criminal, and what I loved about that show was it was compelling. It was in such small, confined spaces yet there was so much going on within the stillness, if that makes sense, and I thought it was really clever television that they’d both created. And so, immediately, I was like great, let’s go. And also, I wanted to work with Idris. I didn’t realise that he’d be thirty thousand feet up in the air and I’d be running around the ground trying to find out what was going on, you know, but…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Did you ever see each other?

Max Beesley: No, not even in the six months shooting [LAUGHS].

Idris Elba: No, not once.

Max Beesley: So… But, of course, after reading it, the first couple of episodes – I think I read three – and the character became more and more involved. And there are so many wonderful nuances for me to play as well as a professional policeman, but also from a personal point of view, being involved in Sam’s ex-wife, played by Christine Adams. And we get very subtle reminders of that, you know, on the picture frame, there’s pictures of Sam with the family and he’s obviously     handsome and he’s, you know, he’s got a vibe about him. And so, I think that policemen, while they’re so tenacious and professional and very good at their jobs, their personal lives are very discombobulated, if you like. So, there was something interesting there for me to get hold of. And then, of course, my… Archie’s character is another ex-lover of this rogue… were we lovers? I think we were. George?

George Kay: Yeah.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): I mean, I’m itching to know the backstory because the relationship between you two, I mean, that dynamic just leaps off the screen, doesn’t it. I mean, something- something really bad went down [LAUGHS].

Max Beesley: We had… something went down, I’m not quite sure what it was, Kate, but…

Archie Panjabi: Oh, I am.

[ALL LAUGH]

Max Beesley: Oh, ok [LAUGHS]. But it’s excellent because we very delicately and subtly worked through Christine’s messages from… from Idris’ character, Sam, and then my relationship, past relationship with Archie, who is in counterterrorism, we can then start formulating something we don’t really think is going on, but as the dominos fall then we realise we’re into a very serious situation. Quite quickly in the show as well, which is good because it grabs you quite quickly. And it’s high octane… high octane stuff. It’s really, you know, a great drama… a thriller and a great drama. I’m really proud to be a part of it, you know.

Jim Field Smith: We actually, you just reminded me you guys talking about being on the ground, is that part of the necessity of where we shot was that everyone was sort of     separated, but it was also slightly by design as well. And the people on the plane never met really any of the people on the ground but used to call each other the ‘ground people’ and the ‘plane people’ [ALL LAUGH]. And they would always try and sneak in and look at what we were doing in other sets, and we’re like get off, get out of here. Because, of course, part of the, you know, without being too highfalutin about it, part of the fun of it is about information and about who knows what. And, you know, the genius of Sam’s character is he’s trying to get information to the ground without being caught doing that by the hijackers, meanwhile, because of the methods that he’s using, which are maybe a little bit unconventional, the characters on the ground are having to decipher this and figure out is it hijacked or is it not. And so, we sort of deliberately wanted to keep everyone separate and keep everyone guessing the whole time. And, yeah, again, hopefully that comes across on the screen.

Idris Elba: [LAUGHS] I remember actually, you know, because we’re shooting at a studio with several stages, and because I couldn’t sort of go and see what the other stages were doing every now and then, I’d always stay near the back, and then one time I realised I was walking right through basically a whole shot. And I think Archie was in there, I think, and everyone was huddled in this tiny room, and they were just, you know, I think they were just running lines, right, and I just walk past. And I was like “hey!” [ALL LAUGH] and they all looked at me like, what are you thinking? You’re meant to be… and I was in full costume, blood on my face, they were like, he looks happy! What the fuck are we doing!

[ALL LAUGH].

Jim Field Smith: He’s fine, hijack’s over, guys.

Idris Elba: I thought everyone would be like, hey, what’s up, Idris! They were like, what are you doing here? Just get out, man, you’re killing our vibe.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Brilliant. Well, those are a few questions from me, but the people we are really interested to hear questions from today is everyone out here and also everyone online who has joined us virtually. So, I’ll start by taking a question from the floor in the room here, if anyone has got a question, just pop your hand up and we’ll get a mic to you before you ask it.

Press: This question is for Max, you mentioned that you didn’t have the opportunity to meet with Idris for about six months while shooting, but your character is pretty much solving, trying to solve the pieces of the puzzle to this, you know, mystery with what’s going on with, you know, this hijacking, so did that help you in your role not having to be able to interact with Idris in those six months, or did that hinder you?

Max Beesley: I… It was helpful. I mean, just from a professional point of view, I wanted to do the dance with Idris on set because he’s a terrific actor, but I think it helped a little bit. And also, obviously, he’s a very handsome man, so like I say, when you do… there are very subtle shots of me and Christine in the bedroom, there are family pictures of her with Idris’ character with the boys, and there’s just a couple of moments that Jim shot there where you just… it’s the male thing of, you know, just like, what am I working with? And these… this guy is a professional but so is Sam, he’s a very successful professional guy. And so, I don’t know, I mean, yeah, it probably did help, maybe, yeah, I’m not too sure, just try to be real on the day with the scene and that’s it.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Thank you. Oh yeah, let’s take it. Thank you.

Press: Thank you. Question for Idris, obviously this is an action thriller, so talk us through, please, if it’s ok, the sort of fight sequences or action sequences, and     sort of how did it effect you? Did you get battered and bruised, or were there any injuries or anything like that?

Idris Elba: So, I guess, you know, one of the things that I guess was by design was that, you know, we didn’t take this plane apart and made it easier for us to shoot, we designed all the action sequences with what we’ve got, ok. And, you know, you know, Sam does a lot of sneaking around the plane, you know. Me sneaking on a plane is like, bro, what you doing? [ALL LAUGH]. We can see you, you know, so it meant that I had to even get lower, or we had to figure out another way. And that was actually really, again, adds to the sort of drama and reality of this thing. The fight sequences were certainly hard to shoot. They were choreographed within the space, if we hurt ourselves, we just took a breather and carried on, because not to say that we didn’t care but it’s just we didn’t try and change the choreography not to hurt ourselves because, in this instance, the fight sequence- sequences were based on what would we do rather than this is a fight sequence, you know. And one of the memorable ones for me is the one with Neil’s character, and this gun and this tiny kitchen space – I’m a big man, so I could just… but it just wasn’t easy to move around and fight this guy, especially if my character is not a fighter, he’s fighting out of desperation and he’s frightened of getting shot. Not only is he frightened of getting shot, but he doesn’t want the plane to go down because of a bullet. So, there’s all this stuff that was part of the design of the action and I think really gives… puts the audience in that… we’ve all been on a plane, we’ve all sat in a chair and looked over and seen that person from this perspective, we’ve all looked down the aisle and looked behind us, and that’s what Jim and the team really designed well and implemented into the action sequences, you know.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Thank you. I’m going to take a question now from the journalists that have joined us virtually. So, this is a question to Archie and Max, and this is from Barbara Monker, who is at DPA in Germany, you’re part of the team on the     ground and the personal backstory, how did you experience the tension building on the plane while figuring out a solution on the ground?

Archie Panjabi: Well, I guess we’re, you know, the great thing about filming this is that we did it chronologically and so the tension just builds. And having to, you know, work with the ministers, the JTAC, the county-terrorism, there’s all these different things going on that [LAUGHS]… I guess the pressure just builds so much that the tension in that room just escalates to a point where it becomes unbearable. In terms of us…

Max Beesley: Yes, carry on.

Episode 2. Archie Panjabi in "Hijack," premiering June 28, 2023 on Apple TV+.

Archie Panjabi: I remember when we first met, we were like, well, what’s our chemistry? What’s our backstory? What’s our history? And I think we both had two different stories, didn’t we, we both decided each of us had chucked each other, and then you pointed to the script, didn’t you…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): I said you were the dominant… you’re the dominant, you broke my heart, maybe.  I mean, I think it’s only George that can settle this.

George Kay: Yeah, sorry, Max…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): George, what’s the backstory?

Max Beesley: Was I an animal? I don’t know anything.

George Kay: I think Zahar is strong and managed to kind of see that maybe Daniel is not the right partner and they broke up. But they did have a relationship, for sure, yeah.

Archie Panjabi: And maybe Sam Nelson was more appropriate, you think? [ALL LAUGH]

Max Beesley: In answer to that lady’s question [LAUGHS]…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): That’s a whole new series.

Idris Elba: Yeah, a whole new one.

George Kay: A love triangle.

Max Beesley: No, no, in answer to the question, when we were working on the ground, obviously as we get more information, the stakes are high, everything’s heightened, everything’s heightened, everything’s heightened. And then, we’re out on the road and then the counter-terrorism units are involved, response units are involved, then it really does… you just play the script and that’s all you need to do. And it grows quite beautifully, you know, throughout the seven hours of the show, I think, so…

Archie Panjabi: There’s a really nice moment though, isn’t there, there’s a really nice moment when I’m driving the car and you ask me all these questions about your ex, and I have a complete… I have a go at you, and at the end she just says, “it’s ok, I get it”. I think from then onwards we just work together.

Max Beesley:     We’re very good at our jobs, which is important, and ultimately, we do kind of really help the situation, I think, you know.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): I think you’re all quite exceptional at your jobs. Talking about the tension building…

Max Beesley: Sorry, I meant as the characters. I wasn’t being an egomaniac. We are both very good counter-terrorist policemen, ok [ALL LAUGH].

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Oh, funny. There’s a question here, and this is to Jim and George, it’s from the States, it’s from Cherry the Geek TV – Joe at Cherry the Geek TV. Now, he was wondering if you could talk about the real time element in the show. In the past, this type of story was told as a two-hour movie, with this format, you’re telling the story of the seven-hour flight over the course of seven hours, and it works really well. Talk about the development of the stories and the challenges, and maybe unexpected surprises of doing this story in real time.

George Kay: You want to go first?

Jim Field Smith: Yeah. Well, I was going to answer the second bit, do you want to answer the first bit?

George Kay: Yeah, ok, yeah. In terms of the- the real time of seven hours and maintaining tension, what I realised when writing was that in the hijacking situation, it’s not immediately life or death, it’s not like you’re just about to be pushed off the edge of a cliff or something. For Sam’s character… For Idris’ character, Sam, he has to contend with a situation that is about to be, constantly is about to be life or death. So, there’s time and tension is suspended because until you know what     those hijackers want, where they’re taking the plane, what they intend to do, these are all unknowable things at the start of our story, and so we have a kind of… we’ve got a tension inbuilt. And there’s no point breaking that, from a writing perspective, there’s no point breaking that tension, you want to unfold the mystery really carefully and slowly because you should have people’s breath held in their chests at that point, and you’ve got seven hours to play with, that’s all they know. And I think at the end of the first or second episode, it becomes clear that they’re going to go to London, I don’t know what we can say in terms of the story, but the seven hours is the size of the football pitch under which Sam Nelson can plot his strategy around and get to his goal. So, the tension is going to be there throughout because you’re edging all more incrementally towards a more intense situation the whole time.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): And at which point did you decide, right, we’re going to do this real time?

Jim Field Smith: I was looking at the- the flight distances and the length of a TV series, and they’re very similar, and actually then the thought they cropped up, well, hang on, why don’t we just play it, why don’t we just run it for real, because we’ve all been on what would feel like interminable plane journeys, that it would not feel interminable or it would be suddenly a short, intense and magnified experience if you were under a hijacking so it just felt right that the length of the show seems to be the length of a flight.

Jim Field Smith: What you don’t want to be is on a flight that gets captained by the network halfway through [ALL LAUGH].

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Was that reason at the beginning, you thought… [LAUGHS]

Jim Field Smith:     They can’t- they can’t cancel it. Yeah, one of the… One of the bits of research we were doing early on, I was listening to this testimony from a hijack survivor, and she said this thing that really, really stuck with me the whole way through the show, which was that she had been in a hijack situation and she said, “during a hijack, time ceases to exist and all you’re left with is decisions”. And that… I sort of had that in my head the whole time because it is real time, it’s potentially more real time for the people on the ground as it is for the people on the plane. As George has said, for the people, you’re sort of suspended, I mean, you’re literally suspended but you’re sort of in suspension and you’re just trying to figure out how to sort of live through to the next moment. For the people on the ground, they’re scrambling for answers, they’re trying to figure out what’s going on, and of course, this plane is heading essentially towards them. In terms of the second part of the question, there were… the sort of… some of the challenges of making it sort of perversely became, I think, some of the benefits of the show. So, the problem with making a real time drama is that you are wedded to every single decision that you make in production throughout. Normally, if it’s like, oh, we hate this jacket, oh, don’t worry, we’ll get rid of it in the next scene or, you know, we’re going to jump to this or we can cut around this or we can go there, we can’t do that in our show. So, we had to live with all of the decisions that we made, and that’s the reality of what would happen in that situation and so we weren’t able to do the convenient thing of jumping ahead in time or sort of swerving around something, we had to just take everything head on. So, you know, we made decisions about characters in episode one that we then had to, you know, essentially live with. And I think, hopefully, that’s to the benefit of the show. You know, the downsides are that you can’t avoid anything. If you’ve got a real time storyline, you’ve got scripts that are written to a real time storyline, you can’t skip things.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): And there’s very little fixing in the edit.

Jim Field Smith:     There’s very little, you know, but the good thing was, to bring it back to the original point, the material on the plane we found could actually expand, because actually once you’re in those scenes on a plane, we, hopefully successfully, went for it, like I really wanted to feel the tension of moments that in any other situation would be completely inconsequential, feeling like the most important thing ever, like, you know, Sam’s character waiting for someone to move slightly so they’re not in his eyeline anymore and they can go this way. You know, I wanted those moments to feel like they lasted forever almost, you know, and- and conversely, wanted the stuff on the ground to feel like relentless, so.

Episode 1. Idris Elba in "Hijack," premiering June 28, 2023 on Apple TV+.George Kay: Also, we… we didn’t want to do any flashbacks or give the audience any irony or any knowledge that Sam and the characters on board didn’t have, everything has to be earned for people on the ground and for the people on the plane. TV is full of shows that are mixing timelines and flashing back and giving audience better knowledge than some of the characters in the show, so it felt fresh to try something just linear, everyone learning at the same time.

Idris Elba: Just quickly, as an actor though, it felt like I was flying to Mars [ALL LAUGH]. I was just like, am I still on this flight? Six months later I’m still on the flight, or three seasons of the show, are we still here? What’s going on?

Kate Quilton (Moderator): In the same outfit [LAUGHS]. Like, how many…

Idris Elba: Ironically, the same shirt I’m wearing now. I’m joking.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Did you have… Was it kind of like Jeff Goldblum in The Fly, did you have like literally twelve hanging up in your dressing room?

Idris Elba: Yeah, and they were all very different stages. Oh, this one over here with all this blood on, I know where that is, I’ll wear that again, ah man

[ALL LAUGH].

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Brilliant. Alright, we’ll take another question from the floor. Excellent.

Press: Not a very intellectual question, but I wondered, before making the show were any of you afraid of flying and if that had changed since making it?

Archie Panjabi: Well, I didn’t fly on the show, but in terms of watching it, no, no not at all. I think maybe for the first five minutes and then after that it didn’t really affect me so much. But I have done a few dramas on a plane before so maybe I’m, you know, used to flying, I don’t feel the fear so much.

Idris Elba: I, no, for me, more informed about flight and airplanes now, which is weird, you know what I’m saying, I’ll sit on a plane, and I’ll be like, oh, the A3 80 [ALL LAUGHS], oh, different trim, interesting. I don’t know this shit. But it’s actually not, you know, I love flying, I love travelling, and I’ve always, always said hello to staff on planes, off planes, just by way of people wanting to say and wave and what not, so yeah, it just felt interesting to be on a plane again after making this show.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Can I ask a question…

Max Beesley: Before you do, can I just say, sorry, because I flew in six hours ago on a BA flight and every single stewardess was like “are you doing something with Idris? He’s so lovely. We’ve had him on British Airways so many times, he’s such a nice guy”. Like, six minutes in, and I’m like, can we get back to me for a second?     But yeah, that was nice to hear. But I did use to have a fear of flying. I used to love it and then I had a couple of terrible, terrible turbulent flights, and then it was Paul McKenna actually that helped me years ago and now I love it. But I do remember after 9/11, because I live in Los Angeles, I always eyeball the passengers when I get on, and I just think, right…

Idris Elba: That’s helpful.

Max Beesley: Yeah [LAUGHS]. Right. Yeah, I’m like… No, I’m not… I just clock them quite quietly and I just go, mm, ok, because I’ve got two little girls and so I’m… if anything’s going to happen, I’m going… Well, after watching this show, you don’t know, who knows…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Who knows? But, as you already said, you are an excellent policeman, what would you be looking for on that flight?

Max Beesley: Just little tell-tale signs. You know stewardess, when you board a plane and stewards, they’re also reading you as a passenger as someone who can help them in an event, who’s fit? Who’s looking good? Who’s drunk? Who doesn’t drink on the plane? You know, so, yeah, I’m into flying, I really like it a lot.

[ALL LAUGH].

Kate Quilton (Moderator): If you ever happen to be on a flight with Max, he might be…

Max Beesley: You’ll be alright, you’ll be alright.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Don’t be alarmed! Right, we’ve got loads of hands in the audience so let’s go wherever we can get a microphone, yeah! Great. Excellent.

Press: Idris, serious question here, this sees you do a more multi-dimensional role, but in terms of being an actor and getting a variety of roles, is it a blessing or a curse to be a good-looking man?

[ALL LAUGH]

Idris Elba: I’m getting a lot of love today, thank you very much.

Press: Max, you can answer that as well, if you like.

Idris Elba: Wow. Look, I’m sure it’s all subjective. I’m not sure I’m good-looking to everyone, but there is something interesting you said earlier, George was talking about, you know, the weedy man versus the strong man and, you know, my size and shape and, you know, all my life sort, oh, you’re a big lad, you know, and I’ve taken on roles that sort of feed into that a little bit. And in this particular time, I was really interested in playing against that. Even though Sam is what he is, he isn’t always the sort of hero in that sense, you know. He’s using… it’s more cerebral, he’s quite vulnerable in the sense that he’s got lots going on internal in terms of his family, and I really was interested in that, you know. So, it played against type, if you like, and I… Yeah, you know, some camera angles are not sexy man, especially on a plane, let me tell you. When Jim’s got the camera right up my nozzle, I’m like, are you sure that’s the angle bro? [ALL LAUGH] Can I just shift to the light? He’s like, no, no, no, this is perfect.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): And let’s take another question from our journalists virtually, this is from Nando Rona at Deadline in Germany, this is it to Idris, Archie and Max, how do you think you might personally react in a situation like the series because of the show? So, since you’ve made it, how might you react on a plane that [LAUGHS] has been hijacked?

Idris Elba: Well, look, you know, I would shut up and mind my own business.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Really?

Idris Elba: No. But I wouldn’t be Sam, for sure, I just wouldn’t have thought out that clearly, but if I had an opportunity to speak to a hijacker and I got eye contact and I thought for a second that person would listen to me, I would go for that and be like, dude, this is very stupid. Or, dude, can you get me a drink please? Just quickly get me drink [ALL LAUGH]. I don’t think I would be the hero guy that’s trying to, you know, outsmart the hijackers, I doubt that very much, but I certainly would want to help the staff and say, look, I’ll, you know, if you need a volunteer to help you do something, I’m in, a hundred percent.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): And you’ve got a bit of intel now. I mean, you’ve learned a lot making this series.

Idris Elba: I know. I know how to fly now, I know how to fly a plane, so yeah.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): What about you, Archie?

Archie Panjabi: I don’t know what I would do. I guess it would depend on the hijackers, what they were like. I’d like to think I’d be able to communicate with them and talk with them, use some of Zahar’s skills, but I don’t know, that’s a really interesting question. It would depend on the people.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Max?

Max Beesley: Again, I’m no idea…

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Employ McKenna? I mean, would you rely on a few of those hypnotherapy tips, I don’t know.

Max Beesley: No, I’m… Because I remember years ago, I got robbed in Ladbroke Grove at gunpoint and I remember thinking if that ever happens, I’ll go to work and take care of business, and I completely froze. I was in a chair with a gun at the back of my head. And even if I had a weapon I would have said, “brother, I’ve got a gun here, man”, I was terrified. So, I don’t know. I have a friend in America, Spencer Stone, who was a… in the military, and he was on the Amsterdam to Paris, he was one of the soldiers that took that chap down. I’ve spoken to him at length about it and I think you’re just wired in a different way, so I’ve got no idea. I’ve got no idea what, you know.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): And George, I mean, it feels unfair to leave you out but…

George Kay: I would…. I would run and hide in the toilet [ALL LAUGH]. I would not step up at all, I think.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Jim?

Jim Field Smith: Me and George and a friend of ours used to play a game that if the three of us were on a boat that was sort of marooned at sea, which of us would turn on each other first to kill them and eat them? So, I think [LAUGHS] every man for themselves.

Kate Quilton (Moderator):     Are you… Ok, you’re eater, not eaten.

Jim Field Smith: I’d definitely rather be eating than be eaten [ALL LAUGH]. If that’s what you’re asking me.

George Kay: I get eaten in the game.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Oh, you get eaten.

Idris Elba: What’s the name of this game?

[ALL LAUGH]

Kate Quilton (Moderator): I think we got one… We’ve got time for just one more question from the floor. Great, we’ve got a mic there.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): Last question, do you think you could watch Hijack on a flight?

Idris Elba: [LAUGHS]

George Kay: Do you think they’re going to put it on when- when…?

Kate Quilton (Moderator): [LAUGHS] I don’t know, you might want to fight for it, George, I don’t know, like have that chat…

Jim Field Smith: You can watch it on a seven-hour flight. That would be a very specific requirement you need to be able to watch it.

George Kay:     It would be annoying to watch it on a four-hour flight.

Idris Elba: It would have to be a nine-hour flight because you’ve got two hours delay, then they don’t let the thing work.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): I mean, it’s intense. I watched one episode on a train and that was enough for me, to be honest, the blood pressure definitely raised for sure. Thank you so much, everyone. Thank you so much for this really exceptional piece of work. It is, yeah, an exhilarating ride. I will, just to bounce things out, compliment you all on your looks and say you are all beautiful, exceptionally handsome…

Jim Field Smith: And very good at our jobs.

Kate Quilton (Moderator): But it is a very beautiful panel. So, thank you so much, thank you for joining us today, thank you for coming, thank you everyone online.

[APPLAUSE]

ABOUT “HIJACK”:

Told in real time, “Hijack” is a tense thriller that follows the journey of a hijacked plane as it makes its way to London over a seven hour flight, and authorities on the ground scramble for answers. Idris Elba will star as ‘Sam Nelson,’ an accomplished negotiator in the business world who needs to step up and use all his guile to try and save the lives of the passengers — but, his high-risk strategy could be his undoing.

The series also stars Christine Adams, Max Beesley, Eve Myles, Neil Maskell, Jasper Britton, Harry Michell, Aimee Kelly, Mohamed Elsandel and Ben Miles.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Sharon: Faith, I’m fine. I’m keeping busy, I promise. Well, with all kinds of things. You’re too sweet to call and check on me. I’m supposed to be the one asking you that question.

[ Knocking on the door ]

[ Sharon gasps, sighs ] Hold on, somebody’s here.

Adam: Sharon, it’s me.

Sharon: Oh, it’s adam. Just a minute! Um, I better go. Okay, I will tell him that just for you. Call soon. Love you too. Bye.

Adam: I startled you. I’m– I’m sorry.

Sharon: What kind of jerk shows up at a crime victim’s house this late at night without calling first?

[ Adam exhaling ]

Nick: How are you feeling?

Sally: I don’t know.

Nick: What can I do?

Sally: Uh, nothing.

[ Sally chuckling ]

Nick: Uh, do you wanna lay down or…

Sally: I will figure it out.

Nick: Are you in pain? Is it time for your medication?

Sally: Oh, I don’t know. Maybe.

Nick: I can handle that. I can prep whatever. If you’re hungry, I can get you some food from downstairs.

Sally: Okay, will you just stop, please? You’re hovering and it’s making me really uncomfortable.

Nick: Yeah. Uh, sorry. That’s the last thing you need.

Sally: It’s just an awful reminder that everything is not okay and that is far worse than any physical pain.

Summer: I have a confession that I need to make.

Chance: Am I gonna regret listening?

Summer: Probably.

Chance: Awesome. This is heading in a really great direction.

Summer: It’s my marriage. It might be ending. And it’s all because of the lies I told about my mom.

Michael: She’s gonna be here any minute and I don’t want her thinking that I– I scrimped on all of the romance, so, no. What I need is over the top. Like rocky road ice cream to represent the past, yeah? And then, uh– then, uh– the– some of the– no, all the strawberries, have them dipped in every type of chocolate that you have. And that will illustrate the– the– the sweetness to come. Yes, and, uh– and– and your best wine. And then, whatever– whatever else you can think of. Just– I want– I want everything, I want over the top, all right? Yes. You can do this for me. You can. All right. Thank you.

[ Knocking on door ] Ah, uh… door is open!

[ Michael sighing ]

[ Door clicks open ] Boy. Somebody better do something about the heat in here. It’s hot and getting hotter. Yeah. Does somebody need to be held in a– the hell! Phyllis. (Wheezing)

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…

Michael: What are you doing here? Where have you been? What did you do? I have too many questions.

[ Michael laughing ] You’re supposed to be on the run, but you seem rather stationary. I mean, in– in a room to which you were not invited.

Phyllis: You worried about me?

Michael: Yeah, of course, I am. I mean, again, what are you doing here? I set up a romantic evening for lauren. She could be here any minute.

Phyllis: Yeah, can we just stall lauren so I can explain to you what’s going on? Please?

Michael: Do you have any idea?

[ Michael scoffing ] No. Of course, you don’T. ‘Cause you’re only worried about yourself.

Phyllis: Michael, I’m sorry. I truly am sorry. Do you think that this has been fun for me?

Michael: I have half a mind to walk right out that door.

Phyllis: Oh, please, don’T. I need your help.

Michael: Damn it!

[ Chuckling ] Oh, it’s good to see you.

[ Michael grunting ]

Phyllis: Ditto.

[ Phyllis chuckling ]

Sally: I– I know I seem like I’m pushing you away right now and I’m sorry. I just– you’ve been nothing but sweet and attentive.

Nick: And that will only stop if you kick me out of here, which I hope you don’T. But if you need some space, sally, I get it. I hope you know, my invitation for you to move in with me doesn’t have an expiration date.

Sally: You know, maybe, I should hold off on making any major life decisions for a bit.

Nick: Of course. Whatever you need.

Sally: You know, maybe, now actually, is a good time for me to kick you out, ’cause I just don’t feel very receptive to nice things right now.

Nick: Well, I could be bad.

[ Sally sighing ] I mean it. Think about how good it would feel to, uh… you know, just get loud and shut me down. Get rid of all those bad feelings you don’t know what to do with. ‘Cause if that’s the case, then you can let me have it. I’m right here. Sticks and stones, fists of fury, whatever. You can get as loud and as mean as you want. Give me your worst. You’re entitled to that.

Sharon: Those were faith’s words by the way. I was just repeating them.

[ Adam laughing ]

Adam: And I bet they came straight from her heart. But, um, she’s right. It is late. I’m– I’m sorry. I, uh– I lost track of time.

Sharon: I’ve been doing the same lately.

Adam: Hmm, well, I wanted to see how you’re doing.

Sharon: I’m fine. Thanks for your concern.

Adam: Huh, well, where is faith? I will, uh, apologize to her myself.

Sharon: She is in michigan. I think she just needed a break from all the excitement.

Adam: And you’re okay being alone here after everything that happened?

Sharon: Who’s alone? I have friends stopping by my house late at night. Mariah and tessa are just the stone’s throw away, and nick, you know him, he practically, moved in. But, um, faith is safe, and that’s what matters.

Adam: Yeah, well, I’m just lucky you bounced back so quickly.

Sharon: I didn’t let cameron break me when he was alive and I’m sure not gonna let him do it now that he’s finally dead.

Adam: It’s easier to process it all if you get some distance from him. You know, the killing. I know what it’s like.

Sharon: I don’t need any distance. I did what was necessary to keep my daughter safe and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Somedays, I cover up because of my moderate With cirkul, your water is deliciously flavored at the turn of a dial, with zero sugar and zero calories. And cirkul has over 40 flavors, so your water can be as unique as you are. Try cirkul at drinkcirkul.Com (michael) copd is harder on the folks around you, I think.

Michael: You’re conveniently forgetting the fact that you, uh… faked your own death and tried to pin it on diane. Making you officially no better than miss diane jenkins, soon to be abbott.

Phyllis: Michael, take that back, please. Really?

Michael: I will not. We thought you were dead. We were devastated.

Phyllis: At least, I know how people think about me.

Michael: There are easier ways to find out.

Phyllis: Yeah? Maybe I should have asked people. Well, people were calling me names and treating me like garbage. You love me, michael?

Michael: Now? Not so much. No. And barging in on a romantic evening doesn’t even come close to making the top of my list of grievances.

Phyllis: Wow. Have you ever wondered what I’m going through?

Michael: Yeah. I’ve heard. It’s been on all the police radios. You killed a man.

Phyllis: He was about to kill me. So yes, I killed him. And everybody presumed I was dead, so nobody would be looking for me, right? It’d be done. I was terrified.

Michael: Understandably.

Phyllis: Mm-hmm. And I fought for my life. And I tried to survive and I did. And I didn’t just do it for me, I did it for all of us and everybody who loves me. And I don’t feel bad about it because that man was garbage. Okay? So we could talk about all the grievances you have and you can itemize the criticisms you have of me, or we could talk about how you’re gonna help me before your wife walks through that door.

Michael: I’m not sure I know… how you think I can help you.

Phyllis: Well, you’re a lawyer. I committed crimes. So what do you think I need, michael?

Michael: Hm, a shoulder to cry on? An airline ticket to a country without extradition.

Phyllis: I’m not gonna run anymore.

Michael: You should have thought of that before you reached for the scissors.

Phyllis: Okay, wait a second. Let’s be honest here. Can you tell me something truthfully as a friend?

Michael: Oh, truthfully? Truthfully? Is that what friends do for one another?

Phyllis: Did I lose you to diane? Honestly, are you going to choose diane over me?

Summer: I lied to my husband. I knew that my mom was alive when everybody else thought she was dead. And now, I’m pretty sure that I’m dead to him. There was a moment when I could have come forward and said that diane was innocent. I could have proven it. Okay, there were– there were a few moments that I could have done that, but I didn’T. I– I kept up the charade and I let her sit in jail. Another thing. I– I was the one that my mom reached out to after her memorial service. It wasn’T… daniel, I– it was me.

Chance: Any idea why?

Summer: Because she knew I’d help her no questions asked. Because I’m just as deceitful as she is. You’re not surprised.

Chance: Blame it on my day job. Takes a lot to surprise me these days.

Summer: You know, this is the part where, as a friend, you might say something like… “you’re not a bad person, summer. Everyone makes mistakes.”

Chance: No, I think I’d say something along the lines of, “it’s been very clear now how far you’re willing to go to protect your mother.”

Summer: How much trouble am I in?

Sharon: So, how are you? Is it too soon to talk about the baby? That’s a hurt that never really goes away.

Adam: Hmm. Well, it’s good to know I have so much to look forward to.

Sharon: Trying to push those feelings down doesn’t work either.

[ Adan sighing ]

Adam: Well, it’s doing wonders for you, sharon. Two can play that game.

Sharon: Losing this baby, and then, losing sally all over again, that’s breaking you. You’re having a hard time focusing. You’re not eating and you definitely haven’t slept, am I close?

Adam: Well, it’s my, uh, survival mechanism.

Sharon: Avoidance?

Adam: Whatever works.

Sharon: Look… if you don’t wanna be honest with yourself about what this loss is doing to you, that’s fine. But what about sally?

Adam: I– she has nick.

Sharon: That’s different. You and sally, you need each other, as challenging and awkward as that may seem right now, you two lost so much together. You need to talk about what losing this little girl means to you. How you want to celebrate her or memorialize her. You know, just talk about it. Cry with her.

Adam: I– I can’T.

Sharon: Not even for sally? Isn’t she the woman that you would do anything for? I’m not saying that it’s gonna be easy or that it will happen overnight, but… you need to find a way to forgive yourself.

[ Adam sighing ]

Adam: And how am I supposed to do that?

Nick: If you don’t get these feelings out, they’re just gonna fester.

Sally: Believe me, you do not wanna see this level of anger.

Nick: I can handle it. Have you met my dad?

Sally: Look, I’m gonna take this mask off and trust me, you’re gonna see what’s underneath it and you’re never gonna wanna see me again.

Nick: You can let go with me. I’ve got you. Pretend I’m someone else then. Disposable. I’m teflon. Pretend I’m adam. The doctors, the universe, whatever, just get it out.

Sally: Look, if I start screaming, I’m not gonna stop. And I’m so scared that this is gonna be my world from now on. Just remembering what could have been, and… that I’m never gonna be that happy again.

Nick: Well, I’m here, sally. I’m yours.

Sally: [ Sighing ] Thank you.

Nick: But you don’t need anyone, right? I mean, not really. You’re tough. You can take it.

Sally: God, but I don’t want to have to take it! Everyone that I’ve ever loved has left me. And I finally wasn’t gonna be alone anymore. Ava was gonna be my world. How do you just get over losing someone like that?

Nick: But you’re resilient. They say–

Sally: Okay, well, they’re– they’re idiots, okay? Ava was my everything. And now, I have to spend the rest of my life trying to forget ’cause that is the only way I see myself getting through this. Forget about the doctors who told me that I was gonna be okay because I want them dead. And adam, who made the decision to let our baby die instead of me and leaving me to live with this pain for the rest of my life? How am I ever gonna be able to forgive him for that? God, and if I hadn’t been so stressed out, then maybe– maybe, she would have had more time. Oh, and trying to forget that I was stressed because of you. Where the hell were you, nick? Keeping me in the dark, leaving me to think the worst and not answering your phone? I mean, you were supposed to make everything okay. You were the one person I could count on. And I get it. I do. I really do. Your family needed you. But what about me? Where were you when I needed you?

[ Sally sobbing, sniffling ]

Nick: It’s okay. It’s okay.

[ Sally sobbing ] (Man) what if my type 2 diabetes takes over?

Adam: I appreciate you trying to help sharon, but everything between sally and me is– it’s over. She hates me.

Sharon: Well, when she first learned she lost the baby, sure.

Adam: I– I went back to see her today and I poured my heart out, uh, hoping to make her understand why I did what I did.

Sharon: How’d that go?

Adam: Um, I’m the loser in the blame game. So, as far as my demons go, let ’em be. I could use the company. Sally and I are going on our separate ways. It just wasn’t in the stars.

Sharon: You two were split when this baby was conceived.

Adam: Yeah, that’s true.

Sharon: I just find it interesting that when the doctors gave you the choice between saving sally or the baby, you chose sally. Is that because you thought maybe, somewhere down the line–

Adam: I– I wasn’t thinking. I wanted them both. I wanted the baby and sally. I never wanted our baby to–

[ Adam sighing ] I made a– a choice with the information that I had. Sally could survive. She could have other children someday if that’s what she wanted.

Sharon: But those children wouldn’t be with you.

Adam: Yes, that is true. I know that. But like many have said, it’s not about me. Sally’s the only one that matters. So, now, life goes on. It’s just– it’s just not the life that I wanted. Look, I should get going, okay?

Sharon: Adam.

Adam: Oh, I, uh– good night, sharon.

Nick: I hope you know how sorry I am. The way everything turned out.

Sally: I know. Me, too.

[ Sally sniffling ]

Nick: Feel good to get all that out?

Sally: Kinda. Yeah. [ Scoffing ]

Nick: You sleepy?

Sally: How could you tell?

Nick: I know you. And I know you really want to get in that bed. You want some help?

Sally: I would love your help.

Nick: Come on. Easy. Easy, easy.

[ Sally groaning ] You want some company?

Sally: Please. Okay.

Nick: Easy. There we go.

Sally: You know, you don’t have to stay the night. I know you’ve had a rough couple of days too, so just– you can go home. I’m sure christian will wanna see his father in the morning.

Nick: I’m not going anywhere until you fall asleep. However long that takes.

[ Sally sighing ]

Chance: Christine wants to bring charges against you the same time we indict phyllis.

[ Summer laughing ]

Summer: Of course.

Chance: I’m sure it’s nothing personal.

Summer: You really said that with a straight face. My mom’s nemesis is in charge of our fate.

[ Chance sighing ]

Chance: You know, summer, i wish I had better news for you.

Summer: Do you have any news at all? I mean, has anybody seen my mom?

Chance: How am I supposed to answer that? As the lead detective or your friend?

Summer: Is there a middle ground in there somewhere?

Chance: There have been no sightings.

Summer: And even if there had been–

Chance: You would be the last to know.

Summer: Great.

Chance: You really don’t know where she is, do you?

Summer: If you do find her, you’re gonna prosecute her to the full extent of the law, right?

Chance: I have no choice.

Michael: You don’t think that I tried not to be her lawyer? I did everything I could to get out of it. Lauren even– don’t start me with that. That woman loves you.

Phyllis: I love her. I can’t wait to see her and all of my friends and hug them and show them how much I love them.

Michael: Hey, good luck with that.

Phyllis: What do you mean good luck with that? Don’t be negative. You probably can’t take my case, right? Because it’s conflict of interest.

Michael: Diane’s been cleared of a crime that never happened. So, yeah. I’m a free agent.

Phyllis: I need you, michael. I need you to take the case. I need the best and that’s you. You have to plead my case, please.

Michael: Well, summer did already offer me the opportunity and I have to say, I graciously accepted.

Phyllis: What? Why didn’t you say something? Why did you let me go on and on?

Michael: Maybe I just needed to get some anger out.

Phyllis: Summer asked you?

Michael: Yeah, she takes after you. She’s inherited that chaos agent gene. She’s impulsive and–

Phyllis: Fearless.

Michael: Fear– fear is good. Fear keeps us alive and out of court. Are you aware of how many laws summer has already broken because of you? Look, if she doesn’t watch her step, she’s headed for big trouble. Oh

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness. You make it sound like keeping secrets is illegal. Summer’s fine.

Michael: Oh, well, this next endeavor she’s planning is more serious than aiding and abetting a fugitive or even obstruction.

Phyllis: You’re gonna have to be more specific with me.

Michael: The emt that helped you fake your death, she wanted to bribe him to commit perjury to swear that he witnessed you killing stark in self-defense.

Phyllis: Full disclosure?

Michael: No, I shouldn’t be hearing this.

Phyllis: That is true.

[ Michael groaning ] It’s true. He did witness it. He witnessed everything. But getting in touch with him is my plan. Summer has nothing to do with it, really. So take it away from summer. It’s all me. It’s all me, michael. It’s not perjury.

Michael: And what? Incentive? Do you trust me?

Phyllis: With my life.

Michael: Then from now on, you let me come up with the plans. Stark was a bottom feeder. There’s gotta be more we can learn from that emt. He’s got another whole story. The coverup, the bodies in the morgue. Stark’s ease with death. The lengths he’d go through to put his hands on your money. Carson. Carson can testify to his darker tendencies. He can really strengthen your case.

Phyllis: And he saw it all. He did. He knows it all. He knows what I went through and what stark made me do.

Michael: Well, unfortunately, we haven’t been able to locate him. Not even with victor’s help.

Phyllis: Victor’s help? Victor wants to see me in prison, not help get me out of prison.

Michael: Summer asked him to do what he could to find carson. The man has a special place in his heart for that grandkid.

Phyllis: Yeah, I’m sure he does. He doesn’t for me. We hate each other. So let’s keep him out of it. I rely on you.

Michael: You know… sometimes, if we want people to surprise us and we give them a chance, they usually do.

Phyllis: Yeah. And sometimes they surprise us with something good.

Michael: So, let’s change the world so you can come home.

Phyllis: Will you represent me?

Michael: Will you turn yourself in?

[ Phone ringing ]

Nick: I was just thinking about you.

Sharon: I was just calling to say that you can take me off of your list of people to worry about tonight.

Nick: Ah, it doesn’t work like that. Once you’re on the list, it’s a forever kinda thing.

Sharon: Who’s looking after you?

Nick: What is this? You looking for someone to hang out with and you’re just too brave to ask?

Sharon: No, I’m fine. Actually, adam just stopped by to see how I was doing.

Nick: All right. Uh, well, I could, uh, I could come over if you want. I mean, it’s not like I have a job to get to in the morning.

Sharon: What’s happening at newman?

Nick: I was forced into a temporary leave of absence. It seems my personal issues are no longer compatible with the company’s health, so.

Sharon: Well, that’s not the worst thing, you know. Take care of your health and, you know, give it some time. Let things get back into a normal healthy rhythm.

Nick: I’m a dangerous man with too much time on my hands.

Sharon: I have no doubt that you will find a productive way to spend your r&R.

Nick: Well, the only way I want to be productive is to work.

Sharon: Then find something.

Nick: All right, I’ll look into it. Thanks.

Sharon: Anytime.

Nick: Call me if you need me.

Sharon: I will.

Nick: Night. Tv: Try tide power pods with 85% more tide in every pod.

Adam: Thank you. You know, I– I really hope this isn’t becoming a thing. Us sharing a drink and our– our woes.

Nick: Well, one of us could leave.

Adam: Or you could just tell me how sally is doing.

Nick: How do you think, man? She’s– she’s spiky, you know. So it’s not a good time for her if you’re trying to come and make amends.

Adam: Nick, I live upstairs too.

Nick: Yeah. I’m just trying to figure out where your head’s at. You know, you kept showing up to the hospital when sally specifically asked you not to. Then you roll by sharon’s tonight.

Adam: Okay, what is wrong with seeing a friend who just fought her way through hell?

Nick: No, you went there to see if she could fix your life for you while she’s dealing with her own stuff. It’s typical.

Adam: Don’t you think it’s a little late to try to be everyone’s hero, nick? I wasn’t the only one who made a choice that night. You could’ve chosen to stay with sally, be the standup guy that she needed. I mean, you said that you love her, right?

Nick: I do love her. But–

Adam: But only when sharon doesn’t need you. I mean, you put me in charge of sally’s care while you were on your little side quest to bring down cameron. You got to be the hero and I’m the one who took all the blame.

[ Sally sighing ]

[ Sally sighing ]

Phyllis: I gotta make sure you got this.

Michael: Phyllis! Yes.

Phyllis: You know what? I already stayed too long.

Michael: No, you can’t keep going on like this. With no family, no friends, no one you can trust.

Phyllis: It’s really hard.

[ Phyllis laughing ] I don’t like being on the run.

Michael: Stay.

Phyllis: Make me an offer I can’t refuse.

Michael: You’ll be close to people who love you, who miss the heck out of you.

Phyllis: Missing all of you is all I think about. You gotta get me out of this, michael.

Michael: Okay. Okay. We’re gonna take all– all this messiness and put it behind you so you can get on with your life so you could be happy again. So you could walk down the streets of this town with your head held high. Carson, he’ll help. What do you say? With moderate to severe plaque psoriasis,

Nick: Nobody asked what happened that night. But, adam, honestly, I’m really glad you were there to do whatever you could.

Adam: You mean take a kick in the teeth so my big brother can shine?

Nick: Here we go.

Adam: No, really, I– I would really like to know how that feels to be the guy in the spotlight when the credits roll. You know, saved his family from a lunatic. And what does nick do on his victory lap? He swoops in to fix what adam couldn’T. I mean, you’re a hero. And I just get shoved back in the corner where I’m expected to stay until I’m needed.

Nick: That night took its toll on all of us.

Adam: Yeah, but you came outta that sewer smelling like a rose. Even though I did everything right, it all fell apart. How does that happen, nick? No, really. I would like to know because I– I just– I– I really wanna get this right for next time. And we both know there’s gonna be a next time. Someone’s gonna need me to do their dirty work. The stuff that they just don’t have the stomach for. You know, the unspeakable stuff, the decisions that nobody ever wants to make.

Nick: It was an awful night for everybody.

Adam: Yeah, well, it was worse for some.

Nick: And just so you know, I have told sally she needs to find some way to forgive you for something that was not your fault. But this is up to sally. All right? Wherever this goes from here is completely up to her. Now, she has decided that because the baby is sadly no longer here, there is nothing left between the two of you. So, if you ever cared about her, then you’ll respect that and stay away from her.

[ Adam sighing ]

Adam: Thanks for the advice.

[ Nick sighing ]

Chance: I feel like I said a lot of things you didn’t wanna hear and now you don’t wanna be friends anymore.

Summer: Yeah, well, it doesn’t matter. I told you once we get up from this table, the whole friend thing is dead.

Chance: It was fun while it lasted. So don’t worry. We’ll find your mom.

Summer: It’s your job after all.

Chance: You really think that’s the only reason I wanna find your mom? Hm? You know, until she comes back, you can’t move on. All this stuff between you and kyle and the rest of your family, it stays in limbo. But when she does come back, you can then focus on more important things like yourself, your life, what you want.

Summer: You’re right. You know what, you might have helped me after all. We need to find my mom.

Chance: Where the hell have you been? This is what I’ve been trying to do for the past month.

Summer: Okay, well, I’m gonna help you this time. We’re gonna help each other… ’cause that’s what friends do.

Phyllis: Michael, I– I can’t turn myself in yet. I can’t do it. Um… don’t hate me please.

Michael: Never.

Phyllis: All right. But this is a good talk, you know. I’m gonna weigh my options and take everything you said to me into account.

Michael: Yeah, well, don’t take too long. The clock is ticking.

Phyllis: All right. It was good chatting with you.

Michael: Come home.

Phyllis: Well, I will. One day. And what a grand day that’ll be, right?

Michael: Oh, I can’t wait. You know, I hate waiting. Phyllis… I’m gonna see you again, aren’t I?

Phyllis: Let’s make a deal. Work your magic… and I will come back with bells on.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

hoo!

[ Breathes deeply ] Ohh! Hoo! You should stretch. I will when I [Inhales sharply] Can breathe.

[ Breathes deeply ]

[ Sighs ] You really pushed yourself today. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but it was a really good idea to go for that run. I’m glad you think so. All I could focus on was my next breath, that next stride. And for a shimmering moment, I just almost forgot that my father doesn’t know who I am. Sorry. Where’s trina? She’s getting us drinks. Still worried about drew? I’m not worried about him. I know that he can protect himself. But three years in pentonville? It’s just wrong. My mom’s trying to be brave about it. She told me to have fun today. But I can’t help but feel a little guilty about being here. I hear that. It’s hard when someone you love is going through something and you can’t help them. Grandmother, are you sure that I can’t drive you to the airport? That’s sweet of you, honey, but I have a driver, and I will be busy with mayoral business right up until I get there. Is that all you’re taking to chechnya? I used to travel quite a bit, and I got pretty good at packing light. I-I don’t want to sound too repetitive, but I do think that this trip is too risky. Spencer’s right. Besides, we need you here. I understand your concern, um, and I have arranged for some backup for the two of you, uh, while kevin and i are out of town. What kind of… backup? You’ll see. But I feel, uh, quite confident that the two of you will be able to come together and work out your relationship for ace’s sake. I made such a mess of things last night. I-I-I was so worried about him coming home that I just — I pushed him further away. None of us would have fared any better. I know I wouldn’T. You really think so? Ned thinks he’s eddie maine. Not one of us knows how to deal with that. We just hope that he comes to his senses soon. How long you been up? Hi. Uh, an hour or so. Yeah. You seen ned? Um, no, not yet. Should I go check on him? I mean, he has a brain injury. And isn’t it a bad sign if someone with a concussion wants to sleep a lot? Doctors say that rest is the best thing. So… so I called olivia to check in on what’s going on, and she — you know olivia — gave me the rundown. And maybe he’s going to wake up and, you know, remember his life. I don’t know. Yeah. Here’s hoping. Right? Right? Shh. Hey. Good morning. Can someone tell me what I’m doing here?

[ Door opens ] What are you doing? Oh, god. My god. Are you all right? Of course I’m all right. Why wouldn’t I be? Have a look for yourself. -That’s it? -Yeah.

Well, what it lacks in subtlety, it certainly makes up for in style. I guess that happened when I was asleep. You didn’t hear anything? No. There’s no sign of forced entry, so… didn’t set the alarm off. Must just be kids. You think this was kids? Yeah. Probably read the article in the newspaper and knew where I live. Just a prank. Where are you going? I’m going to get something to clean it off. I’ve given it some thought, and I’ve changed my mind on that. I can’t — I can’t get pilar fired. Nannies come and go, right? Mason is a very impatient man, and if he feels like we’re dragging our feet on this, he’s going to come up with some very creative ways to motivate us. Broken bones come to mind. Well, he’s not going to get any information at all if he incapacitates me. Who says it’s your bones he’s going to break? I’m sorry. I’m a little bit tired. Ace was up half the night. Yeah, he’d settle down, or seemed to, and then five minutes later, he would be crying again. And you both got up with him? Why not trade off? I see. Because neither one of you trusted the other to take care of ace. I need more coffee. Esme, we’ve talked about this. I know. You don’t have to do absolutely everything for ace. Look, I just understand what ace needs better than spencer does.

[ Sighs ] Well, good for you. Now, let spencer figure it out so you can get some sleep. Spencer is very good with ace. You’re not wrong. I think that if you could bend just a little, spencer would meet you halfway.

[ Knock on door ] And there she is. Morning! Hey! Good morning, beautiful, beautiful baby sister. Morning. Oh, nice greeting. How are you, huh? I’m good. Very good. Oh. Lucy. Hi. Wow, what a surprise. Come on in. Oh, thank you. Um, I hope this isn’t an imposition. Um, marty told me you were heading to russia today? And we’re here to see you off. I’m so glad that you’re here to help me through this. If there’s anything you need me to do, just ask. Well, you could come inside with me, grab some water. Desperately need to hydrate. Why are you shiny? It’s sweat. We went for a run. Someone chasing you? Ha ha. Funny. What is? Any news on dad? You don’t remember me, uh, bringing you here last night? Of course I do, but I didn’t get a good look around. So when I woke up this morning and saw that view, it was amazing, man.

[ Chuckles ] Really. Nice digs. Yeah. Maybe one day when I’m on tour, I’ll be able to stay in a place like this. I’m glad I can make you feel comfortable. Comfortable? It was luxurious. Really. Thank you for letting me crash here. Any time. Listen, olivia’s like family. Yeah. Yeah. About her. Don’t get me wrong. She seems, you know, like a nice lady. Oh, yeah, she is. But I had to get out of that club last night before I said something I regretted. I don’t know how to convince her that I can’t be who she wants me to be.

If mason lays one finger on avery, I’ll kill him. You refuse to accept how ruthless mason is. There’s no one who’s off-limits. All right, fine. Fine. Do you have an idea? How should we get rid of pilar? We tell sonny that she stole something.

[ Scoffs ] She wouldn’t do that. And he wouldn’t believe it. No. Something else.

[ Door opens ] Oh, good. You’re both here.

[ Door closes ] Unfortunately, so are you. All right, you called this meeting. Let’s get it started. Great idea. So, what you got for me? So how long is the flight to russia? Keep in mind, it — ho ho! Martin! Lucy! What brings port charles’ most vivacious couple by? Uh, well, your uncle marty here is the backup that I was telling you about. Uh, just, you know, here to help out while kevin and laura are away in russia, you know, where americans are advised to leave. Well, that’s fantastic. We could certainly use all the help we can get. How are you with changing diapers? I’ll be acting in a strictly advisory capacity in that regard, you know, someone to call in the middle of the night should trouble arise. Uh, yeah. Oh, and you know what? Um, you can count on me. I mean, although I’m not officially a member of the family, I’m a phone call away any time. Promise. That’s great. Martin, I am curious, uh, have you held a baby before? Spencer, don’t be rude. Martin happens to have many, many, many hidden talents. In fact, you may think he would know nothing about skin care, but he was instrumental in the conception of the new deception product. Oh, now, now, let’s not start. Thank you. Thank you, my little petal blossom. You were. But you were instru– I appreciate your unwarranted and unwavering support. Listen, I don’t see kevin. Where is my newly minted brother-in-law? He’s at the hospital wrapping a few things up. He will meet me at the airport. Ah, so that means you two really will be all by your lonesome. Does that, you know, caring for a baby bring you together? Um, we both love ace, and that is the most important thing. Right, spencer? That’s right. So, dex, how long have you been in port charles? Uh, a little over a year. Oh. So where were you before that? All over the place. I joined the army when I finished high school. I did a tour. When I got discharged, I bounced around, did a bunch of odd jobs, and then I, uh, ended up being the substitute manager at volonino’S. What? Joss never said that. Is that where you two met? Okay. Obviously not. Uh, I met joss when I was working… for sonny. There was a misunderstanding. Oh! No, no, there was no misunderstanding. Joss threatened to call the cops on me. I threatened to call the cops on sonny. Dex was collateral damage, so I changed my mind. Oh. [ Chuckles ] Lucky you. Oh, it wasn’t luck. It was joss. I asked her to cut me a break, and she did. As far as anyone knows, ned is still at sonny’S. Olivia went over there under the flimsy pretext of taking him some clothes. Is that really a good idea? Well, she also took him some dessert pasta, so one can only hope. I understand why olivia feels she has to do this, but I’m just concerned that she’S… going to overdo it? Push him too hard? Drive him farther away? What are the odds? Well, if you’re so worried, why didn’t you stop her? Because olivia is ned’s wife. She’s fighting for her husband. And if there’s a 1% chance that it’s going to work, who am I to stop her? Don’t you think you should get changed? I mean, even a business as slipshod as deception can’t think that that is appropriate office attire. I took the day off. Why would you do that? Because her father almost died and he doesn’t recognize her anymore. Give her a break. She needs it. Look, I am sorry, but I have to go. I have to work this afternoon. Oh, yeah. Because you got your police badge… detective shield. …Back. You must be so grateful that you got to go back to a job you love so much. I sure am. I don’t doubt it, because sometimes work is the best thing for us. Olivia! Come in! Good to see you.Yeah, it’s good to be seen. Keep it together, will you? Yeah. Okay. Okay. Ned: I’ll be in my room. Please — uh, please stay. Just a second. Um… I’m so sorry about what happened at the savoy last night. Yeah, I’m sorry, too. Um… I made you some, um, ricotta ravioli. It’s — you like it. I mean, at least you used to. Uh, it — it, uh, looks really — it looks delicious. Maybe we can have it for dinner? Uh, it’s — it’s actually — it’s a dessert or a — or a — a snack. Just whatever. Just eat it whenever. Uh, I’ll put it in the fridge for now. Okay? You sleep okay? I did. How about you? Not so much. Um, I — I brought you some clothes. Oh. Thank you. Uh, that’s very considerate. I’ll go change. Could you just give me five minutes? Please?

Bye, T. Bye! You two look happy. We are. And you’re okay with dex working for sonny? No, but I know the type of guy that dex really is. One who works for sonny. Yes. But there’s more to him. Yeah, okay. I get it. You see a side of dex that no one else sees. I see a side of spencer that he usually keeps hidden. Really? Anything specific? Okay. Before victor died, he falsified evidence that could put esme in prison. That’s what victor left spencer in his will. Oh, my god. That’s fantastic. Why hasn’t he used it? Because the evidence isn’t real. So? Esme really did commit those crimes. So what’s wrong with setting her up to make her pay for them? It’s only been like five minutes since you last threatened us. You can’t possibly expect results already. You’re sonny’s baby mama, but you can’t get him to talk. For the last time, sonny and I are not friends. Sonny and i have never been friends. You know what? We have a great plan. We just need a little bit of time to execute it. Have I not made it clear the information I need is time-sensitive? What information? Maybe if you told us what you were looking for, things might move a little faster. Anything on pikeman — shipping dates, cargo manifests, anything. So quit stalling. We are working just as quickly as we can. See, I don’t think you are. I know that two intelligent, capable people such as yourselves can do anything you put your minds to. Or maybe you just need a little more motivation.

[ Cellphone rings ] I have to take this.

[ Ringing continues ] What is up with her? Thank you again for coming to tracy with that. I’m so glad that there’s surveillance footage of my dad’s fall. Otherwise, it would be her word against drew’S. Actually, that’s not true. Someone else witnessed ned’s fall. So, um… well, here is, um… here’s, uh, us when we were renewing our wedding vows. And… here’s — here’s one of you. You’re singing at leo’s birthday party. And there’s thanksgiving. If it’s thanksgiving, why is there pizza? You really don’t remember, huh? There’s — there’s always pizza at a quartermaine thanksgiving. Mm. Look, I can see how happy everyone is in these photos, but they don’t mean anything to me. I’m sorry. Maybe just — here, just — just — just keep taking a look. Just look through it. Just pick a page, any page. Just…you never know. Maybe — maybe something will — something will ring a bell. Maybe s– something. Wait. That’s me? Russia? Chechnya? I know the situation is volatile there. Oh, well… okay? I do. But kevin’s going to be there. Oh. Valentin will be there. What could possibly go wrong? I mean, if kevin can’t make the russians feel better about themselves, I’m sure valentin could arrange for a-a group of mercenaries to exfiltrate you. Marty, you’re an optimist after all! What can I say? You bring out the hopeful… just do me a favor. Take care of yourself. I mean it, baby sister. Be careful. I will. You come home to us. Okay. Do you not think that the police should see this? I’m not calling the police, valentin. Why not? Because it’s — it’s a prank. It’s A…juvenile act of vandalism. This is not a prank. This is an attack. And for all we know, this is a — this is a-a warning shot. I think you’re overreacting. And I think you may be underreacting. So until you can face what is, I’m staying. Uh, no, you are going to russia with laura. No, I’m not. Yes, you are going. Listen, we have a situation. This is a threat literally on your doorstep. And I can handle it, thank you, on my own. Because if it’s kids, it’s nothing. It’s not nothing. And it’s not kids. Well, and if it isn’t, then I will handle that, too. But I’m telling you, kevin and laura cannot handle chechnya on their own. They need you there. All right? I love you. And I want to protect you. I love you. And I love that you want to protect me. And I like worrying about you, even if you don’t need me. I think I need you more than I want to need you. I’m listening. I need… your voice. I really like how you make even the most mundane things sound very sexy. Go on.

[ Chuckling ] Oh! I really like the way that you say, um, “breakfast is ready.” Breakfast is ready. I like that a lot. And then along comes a full english breakfast, like 10% larger than it really needs to be. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, darling.

[ Chuckles ] And I like your bad jokes. I’ve never told a bad joke in my life. Okay. Sure.

[ Smooches ] I just need you.

[ Sighs ] Because when I’m with you, I can breathe. I don’t have to watch my back because you’re watching it for me. And also, you — you kind of understand the pain of… past mistakes. Yeah, I do. Is that what this is? You want me to leave as atonement? Some sort of righteous self-punishment for your sins?

What is — are those supposed to be mine? They are yours. Don’t worry. You can keep that. There’s plenty more on nikolas’ body. Oh, come on. A few of my hairs on his jacket? That doesn’t mean anything. Hairs and dna. The cops know that you were the last person to see nikolas before he “disappeared,” so it won’t take them long to come to the right conclusion. You murdered nikolas. Okay, look, e-everybody here in this room, we all understand the stakes. So we’ll — we’ll get you something soon. Promise. I hope so, cuz. I really do.

[ Door closes ] You would really be okay with giving the police false evidence to put esme away? Trina, after everything that girl did to us, yeah, I would, in a heartbeat. So you’re saying the ends justify the means? No. I’m saying that, in this situation, sometimes the system needs a little help to get justice. And I think that spencer would feel the same way. He did. What did you say to esme? Same thing I’m going to say to you. Ace needs both of you. No, I s– I still think that my brother would be far better off if esme was not in the picture, grandmother. Well, you can think that all you want, spencer, but it’s not going to happen. Esme and ace are a package deal. It’s not too late. I mean it. Spencer… we can leave this box locked. We can walk out of here. I know my uncle victor, and there is no good that is going to come from opening this box, trina. Do you really not want to know what this box might be protecting your family from? Esme is not going to disappear, no matter how much you may want her to. Very interesting. When I came back last night — not going to deny it — I — I was looking for some righteous retribution. And then, um, laura and felicia and robert came round and did their best to bolster me up. And I did my best to be appropriately grateful and appropriately receptive, I think. In other words, you couldn’t get rid of them fast enough. I couldn’t get rid of them fast enough. And then when they’d gone, I was left alone with that newspaper and that brutal headline. And I started to think about my entire career, everything I’d ever done. Everything. The — the good… and the bad. And all the people that I love, the people that I saved, people I betrayed. And I realized that even with all of my past spread out across the newspapers, the world didn’t stop. Well, listen, I think you’ve worked hard to make up for the time you spent working for the dvx. You think so? I really wanted to try to balance the scales. You have. Thank you. And with people like you around to remind me of that, I think I’m going to be fine. And if those vandals come back with their spray cans, then I’m going to be here to show them exactly what I’m made of. Ned: I look good. Olivia: Yes, you do. What about the girl next to you? You remember her?

[ Sighs ] It’s on the tip of my tongue. Her name was lois. She’s our old friend from the neighborhood. She — she was actually your manager. Wow. No, I-I-I can’t place her. I guess the bump on my head is to blame.

[ Gasps ] I remember this guitar.

[ Laughing ] Yeah! The guitar?

[ Chuckles ]

[ Chuckling ] You don’t remember your wife or your family. You — you remember a guitar from the ’90s?! Hey, look, look, look, look. I don’t need to upset you any more than I already have, okay? I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Where — where are you going? I-I’m getting out of here. Okay? I need some air. I’m not a prisoner here, am I? No, of course not. Thank you. Uh, eddie? Eddie! You know, you’re the only one who calls me that. Yeah. It’s your name, isn’t it? Yeah. But no one here wants to believe that, except you. I hadn’t heard about another witness coming forward. She didn’T. “She” who? Nina reeves was there when ned fell. You could see her plain as day on the security footage. But if nina was there, why wouldn’t she say anything? I don’t know. But it’s weird, right? When am I ever anything but focused? Of course I know how important this is. Do you want to criticize? Why don’t you come here and do it yourself, okay? That’s what I thought. Let me remind you that we are partners. You are not my boss. Good. Now, leave it to me. I will get the information on the deceptor that we need. I promise you.

Drugs. Okay, so family connection or not, sonny wouldn’t like it if he thought that pilar was using drugs. We are not planting drugs on avery’s nanny! You need to stop saying that things aren’t going to work and come up with something that is going to work. Because if we don’t give mason something, we’re going to, oh, uh, what’s the word? There’s a thing that’s going to — die. Yes, that’s what’s going to happen. And then…

[ Cellphone beeps ] …What’s going to happen to your daughter? All right, f-fine, fine. I’ll do it. I’ll think of something, after I spend time with my daughter. This was, uh, clearly a bust, uh, which gave me a lot to think about. So, uh, I’m going to go. Are you sure? Oh, yeah. Ned — I’m not calling him eddie. Ned says he wants space. I’ll give him space.

[ Sniffles ] I just wish I wasn’t so terrified that he was going to skip town. If anyone had to come after me, I’m glad it was you. Oh, really? Yeah. You don’t pressure me like the other two. I’m really, really sorry that this is happening to you. But no one should force you to be someone that you’re not. You’re right. Which is why I’m thinking that… maybe it might be best for everyone if I just left town. Lucy? Hmm? Are we okay? Why ever would you ask me that? ‘Cause I’m getting the distinct impression that you’re upset about that discussion we had regarding marriage. Nope, no. No, no, no, no. I want to believe you. I do. But you’re not exactly acting like yourself. I could say exactly the same thing about you. What on earth — what? You shut me down when I — I was just extolling your virtues to spencer. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold on. No, you — no, no. You shut me down. Darling, we talked about this, okay? Deception is your company. You can’t be out there saying that I helped you design the deceptor. Why not? And I didn’t even bring up the pillow talk. There was no bedroom mention. I was very — listen. Please. Just promise me that you won’t tell another soul that we even talked about the deceptor. Okay. If that’s what you want. Thank you. Did victor leave any kind of note that specifically said, “hey, this is the fake evidence that can get esme convicted”? No. So you don’t know for a fact that the evidence is fake. Not for a fact. Okay. Well, we got — we got to go tell spencer. Okay, we can’t do that. Spencer already destroyed the evidence. Really? What is that supposed to mean? Do you really think that you’re going to find my father? Spencer, all we know is that when your father was hiding out — uh, no. When he was pretending that he was dead for three years. He let the whole family believe it. Yes. That time. Uh, it was victor who gave him refuge at his house in — yes, he left my father the home in his will, the home in chechnya. Right. And I may or may not find your father there, but even if I don’t, I may find a clue as to where he is and what he’s up to. But do you really think that it’s worth all of that effort? Yes, spencer, he’s your father. Look, I know that esme manipulated me into trying to separate my father and ava, and I take full responsibility for the part that I played in that. Good. Now, that being said, my father has done some unforgivable things, and I don’t want to risk losing you on the off chance that he is in chechnya. You’re not going to lose me. Okay. And you know something? I think as you get older, you will see that there are few things that are truly unforgivable. People change if you let them. Don’t you two ever stop? Only when absolutely necessary.

[ Scoffs ] Let me know what you decide. I will. Be safe, okay? Okay. Now that he’s gone, don’t you think you should be — why? Why are you pushing so hard? What do you want from deception? And why is it more important to you than your own son? Olivia: Thank you. Sonny, I can’t tell you how much this means. Any time. Don’t give up, okay? Give up? Who are you talking to? Sonny, this is family. I’m going to fight like hell.

[ Cellphone chimes ] You take that. I’ll see myself out.

[ Sighs ] Well, that’s definitely something to… it’s okay. Don’t be scared. I’m leaving. Um… enjoy the ravioli. If you ever want to call me, uh, sonny has my number. That was brutal. Yeah. Um… I’m sure the more you see the quartermaines, the easier it’s going to get. But until then, every time you run into them, it’s going to — it’s going to be tough, because there’s a lot of them. This is why I love life on the road. It’s all about the music, being onstage, making people happy. I mean, that’s — that’s where I’m alive. Yeah. That sounds amazing. You know, I sometimes dream about running away, you know, being free. Well, as far as I’m concerned, there’s nothing keeping me here.

Don’t be long. The moment you’re away will be an eternity. Josslyn: I didn’t mean anything. I’m just a little surprised that he decided to destroy that evidence. Well, fasten your seatbelt, because not only did he destroy it, he agreed with me when I said that it would be wrong to use it. Wow. You must be a really good influence on him. Hey, it’s me. Meet me at the pool. I need your help. Something is up with martin. Aha! My driver is here. I really wish you weren’t leaving. Oh, sweetheart. I know you’re scared, but you’re going to be just fine, okay? Don’t be afraid to let people in. I’ll try. Good. All right, well, if you must be going, then I will walk you out. Okay. Um, actually, I think I can manage that suitcase on my own. Be safe, or else I’m coming to chechnya to find you. I love you. I love you, too. Be civil to esme. You can count on me. I hope I’ve convinced you to go and help laura. And, look, forgive me if I’m projecting, but I think that it’s important for you to do this. I think that you need to help her. I do. So then go, find nikolas, and then come back here and find me. Of course nothing is more important than your father. But as much as I hate to say it, there is nothing we can do for him right now. Yes, there is. We have to show him how much we love him, convince him he’s better off with his family. Olivia: I’m sorry, honey. It’s not going to work now. Your dad doesn’t think of us as family anymore. He thinks of us as, uh, strangers… just really pushy strangers. You didn’t have any luck with him? No. Nothing. I really thought that — that looking through some pictures, going through that album might — might trigger something, but, no, nothing, not even a glimmer. I-I just — I just made him feel worse. Okay, so now what? Because we’re not giving up on my dad, so… no, we’re not giving up on your dad. I am going to get my husband back. But [Sighs] We have to figure out a new tactic… just as soon as I figure out what that is. Okay. You heard her. He doesn’t want to see us. So…? I guess I’m going back to work. Sonny! What happened? Where’s ned? I am so sorry. I-I couldn’t stop him. Ned’s gone. What? Uh, I just wanted to say that, um, I’ve given it some thought, and I am willing to work together if you are. For ace. For ace.

[ Knock on door ] Dex: Boss, it’s dex. Come in. Ms. Jerome! Help! What? What is it, pilar? Where’s avery? Avery is gone. She disappeared.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hello boys. I’m back. How long is it gonna take you to get this place up and running after you provide the supplies? I’ll need no time at all if I don’t have to improvise with kitchen appliances this time. You’ll have top shelf equipment. I assure you there is one vital component of my project that’s missing.

It’s a subject you want me to work on? Patience, doctor, our friend, the Navy Seal will arrive very soon.

What do you want me to do? Cry. Plead for my life.

Truth is I’ve been expecting you, Michaels,

you specialize in gunning down the defense list. Just ask those people that you sent to a watery grave in the aja. So what are you waiting for? An engraved invitation.

Sorry I didn’t call first. Oh, Phil honey. That’s okay. You know, I’m always glad to see you. Do you have news? I do. I was just at the police station when a call came in. After that, Eli called Rafe and took off in a hurry. Oh, what was it called about? I’m thinking it was a lead. Something that’s gonna tie that nurse to what happened to my dad.

I don’t see anything. Yeah. Well, we gotta know for sure right now what we have is this guy’s word.

Charlie. I know that the visit with Theo was a little stressful, so why don’t we just sit and watch a little bit of body and soul. All right. But you’re gonna have to tell me who’s lying to who because it’s. It’s hard for me to keep up.

Okay. You know what to do when you get down to the dock, right? I should. I’ve gone over it like 50 times. Aleena. Aleena. Oh, uh, what? You didn’t hear me just now. You looked like you were a million miles away.

Did you get a good look at him before he went in the water? I, I, it all happened so fast. All right. Well do best to describe him, uh, my height, but older. Yeah, that could be a lot of guys. Like I said, it was fast. Yeah. Okay. Look, This is the guy that we’re looking for.

Gabe Carver.

Yeah, that was him.

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

Just calm down, Megan. Nobody’s getting shot.

The only time I ever pulled the trigger on somebody, unarm is when you were messing with my head and I have to tell myself every single day that it wasn’t me, that it was you. And now your days of making people do whatever you want are over. You’re going somewhere. Somewhere. You’ll discover new levels of misery every.

Single day, I’m a guess Disney World. Joe, call you one. You won’t be laughing when you get there. May I know why you’re doing this. To stop the insanity to stop you from doing whatever you’re planning to bow or hope or Kate. Funny you should mention Kate, tell me what’s her role in this cute little stunt of yours.

So you and rave. Thanks for this. Okay. I am not gonna pressure you into sharing more than you’re comfortable with, but I saw your face when I guess that you and Rave were upstairs together, right? A few hours earlier where you were over there at that very table and you were sharing how you felt about him.

So, uh, Well, I also told you that there are certain rules in play to stop me from acting on those feelings. Mm-hmm. Well, rules are made to be broken, especially silly ones. Come on chair. You just don’t give up, do you? Never. All right. All right. Okay. So Ray came over to give me some really good news about my sister, which was a huge relief, obviously.

And you know, one thing led to another. And that’s all I’m gonna say. Well, I am very happy for both of you. I really am. Thank you. He’s a great guy and you are a great catch and I, I really hope it works out for you. Thank you. So where is he now? Oh, he had to go. He, yeah. Well, one of us needs to be out looking for him.

Trying to figure out what happened to him.

I’m not sure about this guy. He was a little nervous to me. Yeah. Well, why wouldn’t he be? I mean, seeing somebody fall into the river and then just disappear. Yeah. Well, I still want to dive team in forensics all over this. Look man, you make the call. I’m going in. What? No, you’re not going in Not without scuba equipment and dive team.

You’re not. This is Abe. I need to see for myself. E Eli, Eli.

I was just thinking how happy I am that your test results were so good. You know, you’re not only on the road to recovery, you are in the express lane. Oh look, the commercial’s almost over. You know, I, I don’t wanna watch that show. You don’t. No. You know, it’s such a, a beautiful day outside. When do we get outta here?

Let’s go to the park.

You. You wanna go out? Yeah. Why not? It’s a nice warm day. Oh, it’s not just warm, it’s actually hot. You just got outta the hospital. You’re nowhere near ready for that kind of exertion. Oh, come on now. You can drive us to the park and we’ll sit on the bench. Listen to the birds. I, I know I’m up to that. You were just telling me how, how, how great my, my test results were.

I know what I said, but No, no, no, no, no. No box. No box. Come on. He’ll me get dressed and then we’ll go out and see what I’ve been missing. Oh, so you think maybe it was someone who recognized your dad and Ray and Eli, they’re on their way of finding him and bringing him back maybe so. Oh, oh, wouldn’t that, wouldn’t that be Oh, Uhuh uh, no.

No. No, no, I’m not going there. Not yet. Uhuh. I’m not getting my hopes up. Just, just have ’em dashed again. No, I have done that this too many times already. Uh uh, uh, uh uh. I’m not going there. I’m not going there for yo No, don’t. More wishful thinking. Oh, no, I can’t do it. I can’t handle it. I can’t handle it.

I can’t handle it. Theo, come inside. Oh, I got you. It’s okay.

I can see how this is affecting you, and it’s not my place to tell you how to deal with it, but I can tell you what’s been working for me and what is that? I know what you mean about not getting your hopes up, but hope is all we have right now. And until somebody I trust tells me that I’m never gonna see my dad again.

I’m gonna believe that they’ll find him. My dad and I, we’ve been through bad things before. A couple years ago I got shot and I went into a coma. Nobody knew if I was gonna regain consciousness. Sweetheart, what? Kate told me that my dad never stopped believing that I was gonna come out of it.

Maybe I felt that maybe that’s why I pulled through, and maybe that’s exactly what Dad needs from us right now is to never lose hope.

I couldn’t say anything. The current could have carried him downstream. Yeah. Okay. If it was him. How about we wait for the divers? Divers next time? Okay. A man like Abe just doesn’t randomly hit his head and then just disappear, man. What the hell was he doing down here? All alone? Or how’d he get away from wherever it was that grabbed him?

Are you sure that the man you saw go in the water? Is the man in the picture? Uh, yeah. I, I guess maybe. What do you mean you guess? Listen to me. Abe is my wife’s father. All righty, Eila. He’s eila. Hey. Hey. Okay. Chill off. I’m, I’m sure, uh, as soon as I saw the picture, I, I knew. Okay. Hey, listen, we got all your information.

You don’t have to stick around. So don’t leave town. Okay. We’re gonna wanna speak to you again,

vla. All we have is that dude’s word. Okay. And the blood stain. Napes Hospital brace stain Forensics hasn’t even typed the blood yet. So we’ll follow up on evidence because that’s what we do, but we can’t get ourselves. We both know how this ends.

Okay? I’m outta here. You’re gonna expect a delivery soon. All you have to do is sign for it. I’m impressed with your preparation. But that doesn’t change the fact that twice you have promised to have Commander Michaels ready to do what must be done, and twice you have failed to produce him. I would hate to find that I’ve risk coming back here for nothing.

Your joy ride on Princess Gina Summer and wasn’t wasted. Doctor. This is being handled by Megan Damara herself. Did I say more?

You forget about Kate. I’m doing this alone. I wanna be the one to make sure you get what you deserve. I’m, I’m feeling properly threatened, I assure you, but I can’t help wondering. Why are you doing this now? What nudged you into it? And when I asked myself that question, I remember just how ruthless your friend Kate Roberts Brady has always been.

So let me guess. Kate wants me dead, but you held out for delivering me to my own private Siberia. Am I close? This conversation’s a waste of time and your boat is waiting. Well, you see, you should have listened to Kate. Your problem that you’re too much of a Boy Scout. You are only effective when I was giving you your marching orders,

Kate isn’t here Commander. It’s just you and me and Mr. Baretta in your right hand.

So I’m wondering what you would do if I were to suddenly turn and run for my life? Do you really have it in here to shoot me in the back?

I’m not gonna shoot you cause you’re not going anywhere except where I take you.

How you gonna spend all that time? All alone in the middle of nowhere.

Gosh, maybe you can take my mind off April while, why don’t you tell me about you and Raf. Well, I mean, there’s not much to tell. It’s still very new, obviously. Yeah, but you’re, you’re happy it happened, right? Do you have regrets, right? Oh, nope. None. We definitely wanna be together, but we have to keep it between us, you know, behind closed doors.

Well, I’m sure you’ll be able to manage that. Now comes the time when you should. Thank me for giving you such good advice. Thank you Kate. Your advice really was helpful and, and you know, I’m grateful to Eli too because he had a talk with Rave, apparently he picked up on the energy between us and he gave him some similar advice.

Oh, I gotta go, Ralph needs me down at the docks. Do you think that’s about it? He didn’t give me any details. Listen, Kate, you can’t tell anyone about rape and I, okay? My life is not an open book either, and believe me, I know how crucial it is to have someone you can trust, especially with your secret self.

It’s time to go. Don’t I get a teary goodbye with my old friend, Kate. Oh,

what? What is it? Just something they shoot at charging rhinos.

Oh darling, I know how impatient you are to feel better and those test results are great. Step in the right direction, but look at you. You can barely walk. Darling. You know you brought me home in the wheelchair, so why don’t we, why don’t we take that with us, then the exertion will be all yours. May I remind you that a man tried to kill you and unfortunately he is still out there on the loose.

I would feel so guilty if I put you in danger for even one moment. Spra day we’ll be in a public park. I, I am not going to live in fear. I’m not gonna be a prisoner in my own home. Oh, let me get the door darling.

Oh, Theo, I am so very happy to see you. Perhaps you can convince your father that it’s not time for him to go out yet. Actually, I think that’s a great idea. Come on, puffs. Let’s get you dressed.

Oh, I’m sorry if it sounded like I was preaching at you. You, you didn’t preach. You opened my eyes. I’ve been thinking about myself worrying if I could handle the stress and it’s Abe who suffering the most away from his loved ones. God know where likely scared out of his mind.

I’m gonna have to keep myself strong for him until he gets home. We both will. Okay. So now tell me more about this call that Eli and RAF got got.

Hi, is this Hi Dave? Yeah. Uh, 9 1 1. Caller said he saw guy who was wobbly put this pile on and then toppled into the water. There was blood stain on it and uh, we found Abe’s Hospital ID bracelet. Did you interview the witness? Yeah, I showed him a picture, said it was the eye he saw. Oh my God. So there’s still a chance that it might not be.

No, I hope so. Yeah. I’m not gonna tell Pauline about any of this. It’s all based on circumstantial evidence in one guy’s statement, if there’s a body in there, the divers will find it. One, the texts gave me a blood sample from the pylon. They want to do a DNA match with apes. They volunteered to be a bone marrow donor, so they probably still have his sample at the hospital.

I’m gonna take it over there right now. Okay. I’ll let ’em know you’re coming and it’s priority one.

It’s Paulino.

I gotta, let’s go to voicemail. I can’t let her know what’s going on. Not yet. I can’t. You did the right thing. She’ll only hear what you know now in panic. Yeah. When did the call come in? I hope it wasn’t when you and I were together. Well, I know what you’re thinking. Just stop. I get in here a little bit sooner, I wouldn’t to change anything.

We’re here now and we’ve got a job to do much as we’re dreading what we might find.

I’m sorry to be bothering you again, Rafe, but as soon as Theo told me you have a had a lead. I, I had to call. Uh, so, uh, please call me back if something happens. Even if it doesn’t seem so important, and just so you know, I am filled with hope that you are on the verge of him finding my Abraham and bringing him home to me where he belongs.

That I do. That was great.

A won’t be long. It’s just peeking out a shirt to wear. What the hell’s the matter with you? Didn’t you hear me tell you to back me up? Oh, I heard you loud and clear. Then why did you shoot off your big mouth? I’m trying to make people think that he’s dead. Don’t you forget that’s why I hired you. I did everything like you said, and so far it’s going exactly the way you wanted to.

Okay? The cops think that Abe fell off that pier and drowned, and they’re using the evidence that I planted to prove it. Wait a minute, what do you mean? So far, when I left, they were calling in divers and crime scene investigators and pouring everything they had into it. And you know what? When I signed onto this thing, uh, I thought I was taking on an acting job to help a sick man, but somehow it morphed into this whole.

Weird nightmare where I faked someone’s death and it just so happens to be the mayor of the damn town. And I’m the one on the line with the cops. And you know what I think that costs for? I think it costs for a raise a big one. I am just a nurse. I’ve already paid you everything I’ve got. Well, you better figure something out then, because if I don’t get the money that I want and I’m going straight to the police station, then I’m blowing your whole little world to Smith Rains.

It seems like you should have shuffled me off while you had the chance. This change is nothing

you keep telling yourself that. I suppose you are wondering how this happened, but don’t waste your waning energy trying to figure it out.

You had this little thing planted on my car, thought you had me right where you wanted me. The truth is, I had you the whole time.

They’re not gonna get away with this.

You didn’t put enough in you, al. He nearly killed me.

Come on. Michael says, you have had an update by now. It’s taking you so long.

What took you so long? He was just about to march me outta here at gunpoint. I had to get a roll, settled and answer questions. Doesn’t seem he has a lot of confidence in our ability to provide the subject. Oh, note to self. Next time hire a mad scientist who keeps his mouth shut.

Check his pockets.

Damn thing’s locked. Must have a special coat on it. What about facial recognition? His eyes are closed. Well then open his eyes.

Wow. Disable that feature for you. Next time you wanna use his phone, he’s not gonna be available. Right? It’s Kate seems she wants an update. I knew she was in on it. Well, forget about her for now. We’ve got work to do. Let’s get him outta here.

So you’re not just an actor, you’re a blackmailer now. I guess that makes me a double threat. I better go check on the ape. Oh. Oh. How’s your grandmother doing Better? Mm. Yeah. I’m so glad that I was able to get her the medication that she couldn’t afford. I’m sorry, Ms. King. God, I really am, but I’m afraid the cops are gonna try to pin this on me.

It’s probably not just them. By now. They must have called in the fbi. And you’re right. You are the one who broke all the laws. I did what you told me to. What are you talking about? I’m a nurse. I’m a respected member of the community who’s gonna believe you against me. You’re just a two bit actor, but the police have enough on you to send you away for a really long time.

Am well. Try to look on the bright side. Maybe there’s an inmate’s FI’s troop up there at Statesville.

Busy Helena. Think I should try again. No, no. I, okay. You’re right. You’re right, you’re right. No point. He will call when he knows something. Oh, I’m so glad you are here, Theo, darling. I’m glad I’m here too. It was driving me insane, being half a world away. We need to be going through this together. You got a real way about you.

Hm? You remind me so much of your father. When Abraham gets home, I am going to tell him what a, a wise and caring son he has raised. Then I’m gonna plant kisses all over that man.

Ooh,

damn. Stone a word from Eli.

I’m gonna call him. Hey, there he is. Hey man. What’s up? You were right. The hospital still had that blood sample of Abe, or if it was a match, the blood we found was his.

They’re sure. Yeah. Everything that God Jerry said was right. Ape’s gone. Oh.

Oh, I can’t believe this. Yeah, me neither. Look, I, I need to go tell Lonnie in person. There’s probably gonna be re reporters down there. This can hit the news. I look, I, I, I just need to tell her before she finds out I can’t, I can’t have her find out like that. Yeah, yeah. No. Um, yeah, you take off, man. I’ll handle it.

Ray. What about, um, Pauline and, and Theo? Somebody’s gotta tell them. I’ll tell her. I’ll tell her, man. You just dumb.

Take care. Okay buddy.

Wow.

Here we are. Time for our adventure. Uh, you know, I’ve been thinking pops and um, I think Paulina has a point. You changing your mind. But, but Theo, you were so set on giving your father what he wanted. Uh, I know, and like I said, I, I thought about what you said to Pops and then to me, and I realized you were right.

Uh, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have agreed to taking you out, and there are so many good reasons for you to stay put right here. So it doesn’t matter that I really wanted to go out. Oh, darling, of course it matters. But that’s why I was really trying to get behind the idea. But Theo knows what’s best for you, and he’s your son.

And of course we care and oh my goodness, who knows what would happen if we got out there. I can’t. I, I, I can’t take it anymore. I’m going over to that police station and make somebody talk to me. Wait, I, I thought you were gonna wait until you get that call back from Reef. No, I can’t just, I can’t just sit here.

Not one more minute. Now you don’t worry. I’m gonna be filled with, with hope and all of that, but I, I need, I need to hear something. Where’s my purse went? Oh, oh, oh God. Oh, hey. I was just coming to see you. Didn’t you get my message? Yeah, yeah, I did. And what? You have news? What? What did you find that, um, can we come in?

No. No, you cannot. I, um, no. You didn’t come here for this? No, I will not have it. You, you did not come here for this. I will not have it. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. We, um, we find, but we did find some remnant stuff. Who was there? There was a witness. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no.

Well, wow. Commander Michaels, I should have known, I could count on you.

A guest is waking up. I don’t think he likes his accommodations. What are you trying to do? Same thing that you were just about to do to me. You woke up very quickly. I’m impressed. I expected you to be down for at least a few more hours. New strong one commander. But I doubt that you’re strong enough to resist what a good doctor has in store.

You know? What does that mean? In just a few short moments, you’ll be back under my control. No, no. I should have seen this coming. I’m telling you. I’m warning you. This is not gonna work this time. Woo. Did you hear that doc? Our friend here doesn’t have any faith in your freelance.

Oh no. Don’t worry. I have enough faith for both of us.

No, now.

Hope: I missed you so much. I– um, I hope it’s okay I– I stopped by beth’s school on the way back and just said hi really quickly. I just– I felt like I couldn’t get home fast enough to you and the kids.

Liam: Yeah. So, how was the trip? I mean, how– how was it? They don’t call rome the city of eternal love for nothing.

Hope: Liam, is… is everything okay? I just… you just seem like, um… is there something wrong?

[ Steffy sighs ]

[ Sighs ]

Liam: It was hope. She…

uh, she kissed him.

She…

kissed him.

[ Sighs ]

Steffy: Baby, I’m home.

[ Chuckles ]

Finn: Oh, my god. Hey.

[ Both chuckle ]

Steffy: Oh, god. I missed you.

Finn: Mm-mm. Not as much as I have missed you. Ah, please don’t leave me like that again.

Steffy: I’ll try not to.

[ Finn laughs ]

[ Birds chirping ]

Eric: The reviews for the preview were fantastic.

Brooke: The whole event was inspired.

R.J.: Yeah. We saw the footage of you and hope together. You looked great.

Donna: And you– you looked hot. I mean, hotter than normal– usual, you know.

Brooke: Wow. Thank you. I mean, it was fun to model again, especially because I was wearing one of my daughter’s designs. That made it even more special.

R.J.: Yeah. Hope and thomas must be stoked.

Eric: I’m sure. It’s really wonderful when all that hard work and dedication pays off.

Brooke: And perseverance and commitment and faith.

Donna: Uh-huh. Why do I get the feeling we’re not talking about hope for the future anymore?

Taylor: Wow. Well– well, this is a– a nice surprise. How was your trip?

Donna: Oh, my god!

Brooke: My god.

Taylor: So, what are you saying, ridge?

Ridge: I’m saying the hope for the future preview is not the only thing that happened in italy.

Taylor: Right, no, I know– I know what you’re gonna say. You lost your passport. Or you’re back with brooke.

Steffy: It was incredible. We got everything we wanted for hope for the future, but nothing compares to this. Being home with you, wrapped up in your arms.

Finn: Yeah. All I could think about last night was you coming home today.

[ Steffy chuckling ] It made me so happy, I started– started hearing things.

Steffy: What things?

Finn: You don’t– you don’t hear that? Kinda sounds like, um… monaco.

[ Steffy gasps ]

[ Bells ringing ]

[ Both laughing ]

Steffy: You’re the sweetest. I love you so much.

Finn: I love you, too. So, come on, tell me everything.

Steffy: Oh, gosh. I don’t think you’re ready for this.

Finn: Something’s– something’s bothering you. What’s– what is it?

Steffy: Uh, yeah. Um… it has to do with hope and liam.

Hope: Is everything okay? You seem… I don’t know. Uh, did something happen when I was away, or– or the kids?

Liam: It’s not the kids. The kids are fine. Nothing out of the ordinary happened here. You’re the one who went on a big adventure. So, I’m just… I’m just saying, tell me about it. That’s all. Tell me everything you did in rome.

It’s the most wonderful

time of the year

Eric: Wow. Talk about a sign. Ridge must have been floored.

Donna: Seriously?

Brooke: Yeah. I– and I had no idea what was going on. I heard him yelling for me, and I turn around and there he is running at me. And he seemed very excited. He– he was just beaming. He had this big goofy smile on his face and– and he told me that he believes again.

Ridge: Will you be…

my logan forever?

Brooke: [ Laughs ] Yes.

Oh, my god. Yes!

Yes, of course.

I’m having a hard time believing that this is really happening, but it is. Ridge and I reunited at last.

[ Laughs ]

Ridge: I– I had no idea we were gonna reconnect. That was… it was all about the preview. But I saw my future in rome.

Taylor: With brooke.

Ridge: I have to give this one more chance. I have to.

Steffy: You know what? Hope and liam can wait. I just wanna be with my sexy husband.

Finn: I’m not gonna fight you on that. Mm, man, I missed you. I’m glad you’re home.

Steffy: Yeah. So, the event went well? There’s no issues? There’s that look again. You mentioned hope and liam. Look, I know liam went to rome.

Steffy: You do?

Finn: Yeah, R.J. And i convinced him. Liam wanted to surprise hope.

Steffy: Yeah, liam’s the one who ended up being surprised.

Liam: I wanna hear about it. I wanna hear about rome. So, tell me. Tell me… everything.

Hope: Okay. Uh, well…

[ Clears throat ] …The, uh, press event and the preview were– were amazing. They– everyone loved, and I mean loved, the designs, so…

Liam: Cool. S– sounds like… thomas came through for you in a big way. You still riding that high? The virus that causes shingles is sleeping…

Donna: I am so happy for you and ridge.

Eric: If two people were ever meant to be together, aside from donna and me, of course–

Donna: Of course.

Eric: — It’s you and ridge.

R.J.: Uh, you know me, I don’t like inserting myself into my parents’ love lives, but I– I am very happy for you, mom.

Brooke: Aw, thanks, honey. Oh.

R.J.: I am, uh–

Brooke: So sweet.

R.J.: I am a little worried about how the news is gonna affect steffy and thomas. I don’t think they’re gonna take it well at all. Kinda leaves their mom on the outside looking in. Right?

Taylor: Okay. So– so, one more last chance with brooke.

Ridge: It– it may seem like we’ve been here before, but this is different.

Taylor: Yeah? Uh… how?

Ridge: I don’t know. I– I’m– I’m older and– and we’re wiser and…

[ Taylor chuckles softly ] Nothing’s ever gonna come between us ever again.

Taylor: Okay. Don’t jinx yourself with “ever again,” because that’s the perfect way to make sure that it happens again. And it’s coming. Getting back with brooke means setting yourself up for more heartache.

Finn: I don’t understand. So, did liam not get to the preview on time?

Steffy: No, he just missed it.

Finn: Oh, that’s a bummer. He must have been disappointed to miss her big moment.

Steffy: Oh, he was more than disappointed. I– I told him that hope went out to go sightseeing after the preview, and he took off. He went towards the colosseum. And, uh–

Finn: Well, that makes sense. I mean, that’s like the number one sight to see when you’re in rome. So, hope must have been blown away when she saw liam.

Steffy: She didn’t see liam.

Finn: How come?

Steffy: He came home. He came back to la.

Finn: Wait, well, th– that doesn’t make any sense. Why would liam do that?

Liam: Well, it sounds like you got… everything you wanted from this trip.

Hope: I know. Hubris. Right?

[ Chuckles ] But, um… it really was a success. I mean, like I said, the press, they were enthusiastic and supportive and they really did welcome us like family. And those dresses, I mean, they were– they were breathtaking and…

Liam: Breathtaking, huh?

Hope: They were. And to be able to wear those with rome as the backdrop, I just… I just wish that you could have been there to see it. Um, the piazza where we held the event–

Liam: Yeah. No. It sounds like a really incredible moment for you and thomas.

Hope: Yeah. It– it was.

Liam: Almost… I don’t know, uh… romantic. For copd, ask your doctor about breztri.

Brooke: Actually, I was pleasantly surprised. Thomas and steffy took the news quite well.

Donna: Really?

Brooke: Mm-hmm. They just want their dad to be happy. And if that’s with me, then they’ll respect it.

R.J.: Well, I mean, that’s a nice thing to say, but they must be disappointed for their mom on some level, right?

Eric: I do have to wonder how taylor’s gonna take this news.

Brooke: Yeah. I wonder, too. Ridge is telling her right now.

Ridge: You have every right to be cynical about brooke. I mean, you– you’ve been on this ride for a very long time.

Taylor: Ah, the old marriage go-round. Yeah. Not the happiest ride. But my happiness isn’t dependent on any man. Not even you, ridge forrester.

Ridge: I know that.

Taylor: I know you know. And I do love you. Always and forever and… and I miss you. But I’ll be okay. You don’t think that you’re setting yourself up to get hurt again?

Ridge: No, I– no. Not this time. I– I saw my future very clearly.

Taylor: Yeah, well, you see things clearly until you don’T. That’s– that’s what you do. Sorry. Okay. Fine. I– I’m sure that you and brooke are going to be very happy together until she betrays all the trust that you’ve put in her. And she will. Brooke logan will always be brooke logan.

Finn: Okay. Let me get this straight. Liam flew all the way to rome to surprise hope, saw her, didn’t speak to her, but then just turned around and flew home?

Steffy: Yeah.

Finn: And this mood that you’re in, this weight that I’m feeling from you has something to do with liam and hope. And I know lately you have been suspicious of something developing between hope and thomas. Are you telling me that… were you right? Something happened between your brother and liam’s wife over there?

Steffy: Yeah. And liam saw it with his own eyes.

[ Finn sighs ]

Liam: All those long nights… working with thomas… they finally… paid off. And that must feel… really good.

Hope: It does.

Liam: And to have that success play out in rome, it’s– like I said, it’S… romantic.

Hope: Well, it would’ve been romantic if you had been there, but you weren’t–

Liam: Yeah, well, you didn’t invite me until the last minute, which I completely understand, because it was a business trip. Strictly business. Right?

Hope: Yeah, but I’m home now… with you, with the kids, which is where I want to be, my most favorite place in the world. And I– I missed you. I missed all of you.

Liam: You did?

Hope: Of course. Liam, what’s really going on? Because I… is that– is that your luggage?

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: Oh. So, you’re– you’re going on a business trip now. Okay. Um… the tag says rome to lax. So, I, um– I’m not really– I’m not understanding. Were you in italy?

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: [ Chuckles ] So, you… why were you in italy?

Star Trek Character Biographies by Suzanne

Original Star Trek

Captain James Tiberius Kirk of the Starship Enterprise

Captain James T. Kirk (portrayed by William Shatner) is the ultimate hero. Modeled in part after the literary character Horatio Hornblower, he also embodies the lawmen of 60’s TV who went with their guts as well as their heads and hearts.  Kirk is very intelligent and was the top of class as well as being the youngest officer to make captain in Starfleet. He’s shrewd and has outwitted many strange space aliens, some of whom were foes and some of whom became friends.  Although Kirk generally follows regulations, he will sometimes divert from or even ignore them, when his crew is at risk, or when he feels that the greater good is more important (such as saving people on a planet).  Kirk’s crew is very loyal to him, and he to them.  Kirk is the model of the 23rd century man who believes in humanity and peace, not brute force (for the most part).  Kirk boxes to keep in shape, so he’s able to easily defend himself.

Kirk had a son, David, a scientist who resented Kirk at first. David was a pacifist and seemed to be the opposite of Kirk in most ways. He and Kirk grew to admire each other, but then he died when the Klingons stole the Genesis device and threatened Saavik and Spock. Kirk blamed the Klingons for David’s death. He had a hard time letting go of his hatred for them.

Captain Kirk has an eye for beautiful women, but his ship, the Enterprise, is the lady he always chooses to return to. He had a long career as both Captain and Admiral. Kirk dies when he and Captain Picard fight against an evil being named Soran who tries to destroy a planetary system in order to get back to a an extra-dimensional area called The Nexus (in the movie “Star Trek: Generations”).

Mr. Spock, Science Officer of the starship Enterprise

Mr. Spock (portrayed by Leonard Nimoy) is half-human and half-Vulcan. Vulcans suppress their emotions and use logic and science in their lives. Spock is the first Vulcan to serve in Starfleet. He’s the First Officer and Science officer of the Enterprise. Although he has learned not to show his emotions, it’s clear that Spock values his friendships, including those of his captain, James T. Kirk, and Dr. “Bones” McCoy and Nurse Chapel.  Spock gave his life to save the ship when it was about to explode due to the Genesis device. He went into the anti-matter core to adjust it manually, dying of radiation poisoning (In “Star Trek: Wrath of Khan”). He subsequently was resurrected by the same Genesis device and rescued by the crew of the Enterprise (in “Star Trek 3: Search for Spock”).

Later in his life, Spock worked to reunite the Vulcans and Romulans in peace, with help from Jean-Luc Picard (In “Star Trek: The Next Generation”). He also tried to help the Romulans when their planet was threatened. He ended up accidentally creating an alternative timeline because of a vengeful Romulan, Nero (in the 2009 reboot movie “Star Trek”). Spock meets the younger version of himself and Kirk in the other reality, and they defeat Nero. However, Nero had destroyed Vulcan, so Spock remained in the alternate universe to help rebuild New Vulcan. He also aided the younger Spock and Kirk with some advice in their fight with Khan (in the 2013 film “Star Trek: Into Darkness”).

Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy of the starship Enterprise.

Dr. Leonard McCoy (portrayed by DeForest Kelley) is the Chief Medical Officer of the starship Enterprise. He calls himself “an old country doctor” because he’s from Atlanta and studied at the University of Mississippi. He was divorced at a young age and had many failed romances, perhaps because of high moral standards. He’s good friends with Captain Kirk. Where Mr. Spock is very logical, Dr. McCoy is a bit emotional (even though he’s a man of science himself). He believes strongly that sometimes the body can heal itself.  He is very folksy, and he doesn’t trust all of the modern technology, even though he uses it to save lives. He and Mr. Spock were often at odds during tense situations, and McCoy often would call Spock a freak or some other insulting term, but they came to admire and respect each other. Indeed, they became friends.

Dr. McCoy became Chief of Starfleet Medical later on in life, also becoming an admiral. He lived a long life and appeared at age 137 on the Starship Enterprise once again (in “Star Trek: The Next Generation”) to inspect the medical bay of the new Enterprise-D; he was escorted by Lt. Commander Data.

 

Lt. Commander Montgomery "Scotty" Scott

Montgomery “Scotty” Scott (portrayed by James Doohan) is the Engineering Officer on the Enterprise. He’s Scottish and very proud of his heritage. He’s even prouder of the ship and its engines, which he treats as if they’re his babies. He’s able to perform miracles and get the ship and its crew out of many jams. He likes to drink Scotch Whiskey or other alcoholic drinks. Scotty gets along fine with his shipmates, and he’s very loyal to them (especially Captain Kirk).

Scotty served on 11 ships in his long career. He was about to retire when his shuttlecraft was hit by a Dyson Sphere. He put himself in the pattern buffer to survive, and he was there for 75 years until revived by the crew of the Enterprise D (in “Star Trek: The Next Generation”). Scotty didn’t adjust well to life in the 25th century because his knowledge was too outdated. After helping to save the Enterprise D, he was given a small starship (called a runabout) and went off to explore space in his remaining days.

Nurse Christine Chapel

Nurse Christine Chapel (portrayed by Majel Barrett) is the nurse that assists Dr. McCoy on the Enterprise. She originally had a career in bio-research, but she abandoned it to go into space when her fiancé went missing. Once they found him, and he died, she decided to stay on the ship.  She’s a capable medical officer who does a lot to help the crew. Eventually, she became a doctor (in the movie “Star Trek: The Motion Picture”).

In the series, Nurse Chapel has a crush on Mr. Spock, who can’t return her feelings because he’s a Vulcan. She kept trying to get close to him, despite that.

Lt. Hikaru Sulu

Lt. Hikaru Sulu (portrayed by George Takei) is the ship’s helmsman. He has a background in physics and was the ship’s staff physicist when it started. Then he became the helmsman.  Sulu has many hobbies, including botany, fencing, gymnastics and ancient weaponry. He later, in the movies, became Lt. Commander, Commander and then Captain. He commanded his own ship, the U.S.S. Excelsior.

In the movie “Star Trek: Generations,” we learn that he has a daughter, Demora Sulu. Sulu is also seen in a flashback by Lt. Tuvok, who served under Captain Sulu, in an episode of “Star Trek: Voyager.” We learn nothing else about Sulu’s personal or romantic life.

Lt. Nyota Uhura Lt. Nyota Uhura (portrayed by Nichelle Nichols) is the Chief Communications Officer on the ship. She can also fill in at the helm, navigation or science stations when needed. She speaks many languages, but she mostly interacts with the technology on the ship. She is religious (Christian) and also loves to sing for the crew when off-duty (sometimes with Spock playing the Vulcan lyre). Like most of the ship’s crew, she’s very loyal to the ship, its crew and to Captain Kirk.  She comes from the United States of Africa.

When challenged, especially by obnoxious aliens, she stands up for herself as a strong woman. One alien robot, NOMAD, erased her memory, so she had to relearn her whole life (with the help from the ship’s computers). It didn’t take her long, thankfully.  She has a good working relationship with the other crew, but no mention is ever made of any romantic relationships.  When some of the crew went to the mirror universe, she flirted with the mirror Sulu in order to distract him. Nothing else is known about Uhura’s personal or romantic life.  Later, Uhura was promoted to Lt. Commander and then Captain.

Ensign Pavel ChekovEnsign Pavel Chekov (portrayed by Walter Koenig) is a junior officer compared to the rest of the bridge crew. He’s younger and more naïve.  Chekov is later promoted to Lieutenant, and then to Lt. Commander. He’s the ship’s navigator. Later, he became the ship’s tactical officer and security chief. Hailing from Russia, he enjoys making jokes about how everything is a Russian invention.  However, his youthful arrogance hides the fact that he was an honors graduate of the Space Academy and is almost as good with science as Mr. Spock.

Like Captain Kirk, Chekov always admires beautiful women and frequently flirts with them. Chekov became the Executive Officer aboard the Reliant (in “Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan”) and showed up later on the Enterprise-B as a guest on its first voyage (in “Star Trek: Generations”).  His son, Anton, became President of Earth, but nothing else is known about Chekov’s life outside of the ship.

Yeoman Janice RandJanice Rand (portrayed by Grace Lee Whitney) is Captain Kirk’s Yeoman, which is similar to a personal assistant.  Captain Kirk showed his sexist side when he was uncomfortable having a woman in that position (probably because she was so beautiful, and he had a hard time ignoring that). There is always a lot of sexual tension between the two.  Yeoman Rand seemed quiet and shy at first, but she is clearly a capable officer who frequently goes on away missions with a tricorder, and she’s able to stand up for herself when necessary.

Later, Rand became the Transporter Chief on the ship (in the movie “Star Trek: The Motion Picture”) and then a Communications Officer on the U.S.S. Excelsior (in the film “Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country”).

Lt. Arex, Navigator of the Starship Enterprise (James Doohan)Lt. Arex (voiced by James Doohan) serves as one of the ship’s navigation officers (in “Star Trek: The Animated Series”). He’ss an Edosian, and that species has 6 limbs.  He is adept at using the science station and has commanded the Enterprise a few times when the captain was away. Arex has a very high, whiny voice.

Arex is known as one of the best navigators in Starfleet and was Ensign Chekov’s instructor at the academy. Arex got his start as a technician on merchant vessels but became an officer through a field promotion. He never went to Starfleet Academy. He has had many commendations and citations for bravery and valor, but he is quiet and unassuming.

Lt. M'Ress, Communications Officer of the Starship Enterprise (Majel Barrett)Lt. M’ress (voiced by Majel Barrett) is the ship’s Operations Division Officer and frequently fills in for Uhura as Communications Officer and sometimes as Science Officer. Her species is Caitian; she has a tail and a cat-like appearance. Also, she purrs when she speaks. She is close friends with Lt. Uhura and Nurse Chapel, and she also hangs out with Lt. Arex. She has interests in anthropology, archaeology, poetry-writing and performing in plays.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Ashley: My sister meant well. But traci, she’s so sweet. She just wants jack and I to lay down our swords. But from what I can tell, it’s not working. Not even a little bit.

Tucker: So, it had no impact on you at all? Doesn’t expending all this energy on hatred just wear you out?

Ashley: What is wrong with everybody? Why can’t you see that what I’m doing isn’t because of my hatred for diane? It’s because of love for my family and my brother. I don’t get it.

Jack: Hey, I got your text. Came as soon as I could. What’s up?

Diane: Well, thanks for rushing over, but I’m afraid it might be too late.

Jack: Why? What happened?

Diane: Well, I tried to bridge the gap between kyle and summer, but the whole thing might have backfired. It just went horribly wrong and now I– I’m afraid I’ve made things even worse.

Summer: Kyle. Kyle! Can you please stop? Wait a second. Look, it’s fine if you’re pissed off and you want to storm out of society and it’s fine if you hate me right now, but please, can you just stop with this evasion and silent treatment and talk to me?

Kyle: I don’t want to discuss this right now.

Summer: Okay, then when? When are you gonna want to discuss this? Because if you’re– you’re really that angry that you– you don’t feel like you can move past this at all, then you need to step up and say so.

Abby: Yep.

[ Knock on door ] Um, I’ll get it.

Devon: You sure?

Abby: Yep. Got it.

Chance: Hey.

Abby: Oh.

Chance: I’m sorry to do this to you. I, uh, I know I’m supposed to have him for a few more days, but I just got called into a new case. Louise has the flu, so… all that’s kind of blown up my plan.

Abby: Um. Yeah. Yeah, no problem.

Chance: Yeah?

Abby: Yeah.

Chance: Thank you.

Abby: We always love having dominic at home.

Chance: Uh, yeah. Look, I’m– I’m kind of in a hurry, but there is something I’d like to talk to you about while I’m here. Uh, it’s about dominic and this whole situation. It’s just not really working out. Choosing a treatment for your chronic migraine –

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…

Abby: Well, our boy knocked right out, so he must have had quite the day.

Chance: Yeah, never had a dull moment with him. That’s actually what I’d like to talk to you about.

Devon: Is something wrong with him?

Chance: No, no, everything’s fine. I just noticed that instead of enjoying the fact that he has two different places to live, I think it stresses him out. Every time we switch, he gets real fussy and uh, it’s kind of a struggle to calm him down. I won’t lie.

Abby: Oh, I– I didn’t realize.

Chance: Well, don’t get me wrong. It’s just when he first gets to my place. Once he has settled in and we’re having a good time, we got to pack his stuff up and come back here. So as much as we justify it to ourselves, I think the back and forth seems to be confusing him.

Abby: So, what are you suggesting? That we change our custody agreement?

Tucker: You have convinced yourself that you are saving jack from himself.

Ashley: Well, that’s exactly what I’m trying to do. I know that diane is a present danger, clear and present danger to our family’s company and the fact that jack doesn’t see that–

Tucker: Jack is a grown man! He doesn’t need protecting from anyone, by anyone. Least of all you.

Ashley: That’s kind of harsh, don’t you think? I mean a little–

Tucker: When did you become your brother’s keeper? If he wants to throw his life away with diane, that’s his problem. But if it causes chaos at jabot, so be it. That’s just how it goes.

Ashley: Oh, yeah, sure. Who cares, right? But it’s really easy for you to say that. It’s not your family. It’s not your father who built that company, tucker.

Tucker: Yeah, but your father’s company is now a yoke around your neck. You know, you’re just– I think you’re bigger and better than all of this pettiness. And it occurs to me that you have earned the right to call your own shots now. To build your own legacy.

Ashley: With you?

Tucker: Yes. You’re damn right. Yes with me.

Ashley: Okay.

Tucker: So what’s it gonna take to pull you across the finish line here, to… help you let go of this misguided need to protect jack and jabot.

Ashley: Our mother left us when we were just little kids. We’ve been protecting each other ever since.

Tucker: I understand, but it’s gone too far now. And it might be too late to save him anyway. I think what you need to concentrate on is purging yourself of this hatred for diane. And if you can do that, your whole world will be magnificent again.

Jack: How exactly did you make things worse for summer and kyle? What did you do?

Diane: Well, summer and I came here after leaving the family meeting earlier. She wanted my help convincing kyle to forgive her. And well, she made it very clear that if I did help her, it would go a long way towards me making amends for my part in things, which– which is important to me. And then kyle showed up…

Kyle: Excuse me, summer, but would you mind if I speak to my mother in private?

Diane: Uh, kyle, we can do that, but I think that maybe you should sit down and we should speak as a family first. You know, there are some things I need to tell you and, um, I’d like for summer to be part of that conversation as well.

Kyle: Look, mom, if this is about the problems between me and summer, I’d prefer you didn’t get involved.

Diane: It– it is, but not in the way that you think.

Kyle: Okay, in what way then?

Diane: Did you know that harrison has been crying himself to sleep the last three nights?

Kyle: What? How could that be? I’ve read to him until he’s fallen asleep every night.

Diane: Well, he wakes up about half an hour later and comes and finds his didi with tears in his eyes.

Summer: Tears, why?

Kyle: What’s he so upset about? Why didn’t he come to me?

Diane: He wouldn’t tell me what was going on at first, but then he finally asked what he was doing to make his mommy and daddy so upset.

Summer: Why didn’t you tell us that he was crying at night?

Kyle: Yeah, you should’ve come to us with this right away.

Diane: Well, I was afraid that you would think that I was interfering in your relationship. And plus I– I figured that the two of you would work things out soon, but it has been three nights in a row.

Jack: Wow. That is a lot for that kid to be carrying around.

Diane: Oh, yeah.

Jack: I hate that he blames himself for the chaos and upset that’s going on in our home. This is a lot for you to carry around. I mean, why didn’t you tell me?

Diane: Well, I– I– I didn’t tell you because it isn’t true. I told a little white lie trying to push kyle past his anger toward summer since she betrayed him. I was hoping that it would focus them both on what’s really important to them. Their family, their little boy.

Jack: It wasn’t true. Seriously?

Diane: Oh, no. It just kind of came to me and I went with it.

Jack: You lied to kyle. Again.

Chance: I am suggesting that we change the custody agreement slightly. Look, we all know that dominic loves the mansion. It was his first place that he lived. I would like for you to consider moving into the chancellor house. Devon, I’m sure your grandmother would love it. Abby, you could come back home and dominic could have all the space he could ever ask for to run, play and grow. I’m gonna take an apartment closer to the police station. I don’t need that big thing, okay? I don’t need to be rattling around all by myself in that big old mansion. I would much rather dominic have it. That way I can come visit whenever. And the chancellor home, you know, the first place that he lived, will be his permanent home.

Devon: Well, okay. Well, this is, uh, it’s not what I expected.

Chance: Yeah. Well, look, I, uh, I do have to run. I apologize. So, I’ll let you guys talk it over, but just know I still want to share custody. I still want to see him as much as I can, okay? Nothing’s changed and I understand this is a big move, so if you’re not up for it, I totally get it. I just wanted to put it out there for dominic’s sake. Talk to you soon.

Devon: Thanks.

Abby: Wow. Um, I was not expecting that at all, but I know chance is coming from a good place. But I mean, this is a huge decision for both of us. Is this even something that you would consider?

Ashley: You’re not wrong. It’s exhausting, having all this hatred towards diane, but I can’t just turn it on and off like a light switch, you know, not when she’s such a threat.

Tucker: Yeah. I’m sorry to tell you, but you’re not the only one who’s finding it exhausting. Diane seems to be occupying more space in your head than anyone else in your life right now. Wherever we go, diane seems to be with us. We might as well always ask for a table for three. We can’t have a conversation without it eventually steering back to diane. Diane this, diane that. Jack, jabot, jabot, jack, enough already.

Ashley: I apologize.

Tucker: Enough of jabot.

Ashley: I am so deeply sorry. It can’t always be about you. And maybe you’re missing the point here. I can’t just walk away from this company, tucker. It’s in my dna. It always will be a part of me.

Tucker: So, you’re always going to be miserable. You’re always going to be consumed by hatred and paranoia? All right, think about this. Let’s say you’re right. Let’s say your prediction about diane’s right and she brings jabot crashing down. You know what we do? We swoop in, we scoop it up, we fold it into our own company, which would make us stronger than ever. And you could rein over everything you see. Yeah?

Ashley: Well, I don’t want jack and traci and billy to think that I want to stab them in the back and destroy the family company. That’s not what I’m doing this for, you know that. I want to protect the company. I want to protect my father’s legacy. That’s what I mean when I say I’m doing this out of love and not hatred. Don’t you hear what I’m saying?

Tucker: Right, then let diane crash and burn on her own. That’s the best way to prove to jack what a threat she is anyway.

Diane: I’m not going to try to defend what I did other than to say my heart was in the right place. It was an innocent white lie. And you know what? Part of me is afraid that harrison might have picked up on the tension between his parents.

Jack: But you don’t know that. I mean, he hasn’t said that to you, has he?

Diane: No, no, I guess not. And I– I guess I took it too far. I just– I just wanted to rattle kyle into realizing what his anger towards summer could be costing his son.

Kyle: I had no idea this was impacting my son like this. I’ve had talks with him explaining that sometimes adults have arguments and it takes a little time for them to work through their problems, but I made it as clear as I possibly could that didn’t mean we love him any less.

Diane: Well, clearly it wasn’t enough. He’s– he’s suffering.

Summer: Kyle, this is even more of a reason for us to start trying to work things out between us. Harrison has been through so much in his life already. We owe him a sense of security now. Don’t you agree with that?

Kyle: Summer, are you sure you didn’t already know about harrison’s apparent upset?

Summer: No. How– how could I? I’ve been sleeping in the pool house. I go in and I say good night to him when you’re not around and then I go away.

Kyle: I’m still finding it odd that I’m only hearing about this now. Harrison has shown no signs of being upset or worried. He’s been the same happy-go-lucky guy. But if this is true, I am very concerned about my son and I will do everything I can to calm him down.

Diane: What do you mean? If this is true?

Kyle: Well, I’m just having a hard time understanding that he could have such a strong reaction that I wouldn’t have seen or sensed it. At least not to the level that kept him up at night. Something feels off here.

Diane: And then the whole thing just spiraled from there. And I– I had to admit that I might have exaggerated the situation.

Jack: I can imagine how that went down.

Diane: I was just hoping that kyle could realize that he needs to find a way to forgive his wife.

Jack: You do realize what you’ve done?

Diane: Yes, I know. And I know that it was a bit desperate. And I– and I know that I shouldn’t have used our grandson that way, but it wasn’t a total fabrication. I do think that harrison has picked up on the tension between his parents. He knows that there’s something going on.

Jack: But you tried to convince kyle it was a lot worse than that.

Diane: Yes, I know. And then after I confessed to him, he stormed out. But summer was right behind him.

Kyle: Honestly, I don’t know what I want. All I know is that this is hell for me.

Summer: Kyle, this is hell for me too. I believe what diane was saying earlier, that harrison is picking up on what’s going on. He knows that there’s a conflict between us and the question is how are we gonna fix it?

Kyle: I don’t know. Maybe what we need to do is take some time apart. Really apart while we try to figure this out.

Summer: What does that mean? Like a formal separation? (Wheezing)

Summer: Kyle, you can’t really mean that.

Kyle: I’m sorry. I– I can’t get beyond this betrayal. You kept this a secret from me for weeks. You lied repeatedly to my face and all I wanted to do was comfort you. I thought something was wrong with me, that I couldn’t do what you needed to help you feel better. How could you have been so cruel to me?

Summer: I know that I handled it badly. I know that I did. But kyle, I was caught between protecting my mom and–

Kyle: Destroying mine? Still, you could have come to me. Told me everything and we could have found a way to deal with it together, but instead, you opted to betray my trust and freeze me out.

Summer: Kind of like what you did when you worked with my grandpa behind my back. You know, I felt betrayed then too.

Kyle: Oh, no, no, no, this is completely different and you know, it. That wasn’t life or death, incarceration or freedom. You took my love and my sympathy and you threw it back in my face. You broke my heart. And the worst part is you didn’t trust me to help you through the trauma you were going through. The fact is you betrayed every bit of confidence I have in you. In us.

Summer: But we can get through this. I know that we can. I love you. And you love me… don’t you?

Kyle: You chose your mother over me. You were willing to let my mom suffer and maybe spend the rest of her life behind bars.

Summer: I would have never let it get that far. I promise you that.

Kyle: Well, we’ll never know for sure now, will we? No, I get the sense that this meeting at society was a clever little setup. Did you recruit my mother to help us bridge the gap? Was that stunt using harrison something the two of you cooked up?

Summer: I didn’t know what she was gonna do. But yes, I did tell diane that it would go a long way with me if she could help convince you to forgive me.

Kyle: Yeah. I thought so.

Summer: Kyle, I was desperate. You weren’t talking to me. I have never seen you that angry and I was– I was afraid for our marriage.

Kyle: And where did that lead, summer? Look at where we are now. You have made one bad choice after another. I… I think we need some time to process everything that’s happened. See what’s left. If anything.

Summer: Kyle, no, that’s too extreme. Do we really have to go that far? If we love each other, if you have ever loved me, then we should be able to work this out.

Kyle: I can’T. Not right now. I need time to think through things.

Summer: What does that mean? You want me to move out of the house completely?

Jack: Look, I’m– I’m not gonna lie. It upsets me that you used harrison to force kyle’s hand and I’m not surprised that this blew up in your face.

Diane: Well, I’m– I’m sorry. And I can see why you’re upset with me, but what am I supposed to do? I swear I was only trying to do something good, something to try to get them back together, and I– I feel like I need to try because I am partially to blame for their problems.

Jack: Wait, what are you saying? You are not to blame for what summer did.

Diane: No, but my feud with phyllis is at the center of this whole thing. Jeremy stark came back to town because of me and then he took advantage of phyllis’s intense hatred towards me.

Jack: You are no part of that scheme and summer went off the rails emotionally.

Diane: Well, yes, she did. But I– I think she was just grasping at any hope when she learned that her mother was alive. She had to do whatever she could to protect her, to– to try to clean up that mess and bring her back home safely.

Jack: That was your argument. Not using harrison.

Diane: I know. I’ve bungled this badly and I need to find kyle and try to fix it.

Ashley: Maybe you haven’t heard, but I’ve actually done something kind of like that. I went to paris with my patents and I created a very successful company. So how would this be different?

Tucker: Yes, yes, I recall that. This would be different in as much as you would not be alone. All right? And there’s no doubt you did a wonderful job in paris, which is why I know that together, we would be unstoppable.

Ashley: You really think so?

Tucker: I know so. And this time, you would not have the entire burden resting on your shoulders. I’d be right there with you. Think of how wonderful it would be to build something as a couple. Huh?

Ashley: That would be kinda awesome.

Tucker: Kinda awesome? It would be totally awesome. And we could do it right here in genoa city. Think about all the new products you could design. Oh, by the way, I’ve been spitballing names. You wanna hear my favorite? Simply ashley. Your name associated with beauty all over the world. People all over the world identifying with you, right? And then you and I become the power couple of the decade. You’re thinking about it. You’re seeing it in your mind’s eye, right? You’re gonna let jabot just pursue whatever goal it wants while you and I set the industry on fire.

Ashley: It would really hit jack right where he lives.

Tucker: Oh, god. Here we go again, jack, jack, I’m not proposing this as yet another means to get back at jack. I’m talking about taking this idea to its fruition, for us. And you’re either committed or you’re not. Are you in?

Ashley: Of course.

Tucker: Simone, if you please, a bottle of your finest champagne, for my business partner and me.

Ashley: Shh.

Devon: Honestly, the thought of dominic having one central place to call home is ideal. Because I’m sure it is rough for him to be carted back and forth between here and the chancellor mansion. But how would you feel being back in that house?

Abby: Well, there are a lot of things to consider. A lot of memories, both good and bad, and then there’s jill. I mean, that’s her landing spot when she comes to genoa city, and probably nina’s too. Even though she’s not here that often.

Devon: So would that be weird for you then? To be under the same roof as your ex-mother-in-law?

Abby: Whoo. Well, probably a little bit, especially after she told me exactly how she felt about me at the gala. Since I broke her son’s heart. I don’t know. What about you? This place is your home. Would you even consider giving it up? Even if it is the best thing for dominic?

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue. (Mom) america’s favorite strawberry yogurt.

Kyle: Living in the pool house is not much different than living in the main house. You still need to come in here on a regular basis.

Summer: That’s what you need a break from? You’re so angry at me that you want me as far away as possible? So what? You can decide if you want a divorce or not? You’re throwing me out because I was trying to protect my mom.

Kyle: No, you chose to protect your mom at the cost of honesty and the faith in me and our marriage.

Summer: What would you have done if the roles were reversed, kyle?

Kyle: My mother would never have stooped as low as phyllis. She never would have done what she did.

Summer: What are you talking about? Diane already did it. She faked her death. She abandoned you at a much younger age than me and daniel are now. Are you just forgetting that? How she walked out on you? Disappeared for years and how she was willing to let my grandma take the fall? You’re kidding yourself if you don’t believe how low your mom could stoop. What your mom did was no better than what my mom has done.

Kyle: I know you struggled with your feelings with my mother. That you believe she was guilty for phyllis’s death, but I really thought once you realized it was all a fake and phyllis was alive, you would see how wrong you were.

Summer: Yes, I was wrong about that, sure. But diane is guilty of so much more.

Kyle: And there it is. Your argument that you were just trying to protect phyllis no longer rings entirely true. Not when you’re still holding old grudges and punishing my mother for her lies.

Summer: You know, maybe you’re right. Maybe I should move out.

Jack: Summer, could I have a moment alone with my son?

Diane: Yeah, kyle. I would like to speak with you as well.

Summer: Fine.

Jack: Please tell me I didn’t just hear you ask summer to leave this house. Has it really gotten that out of hand?

Diane: Yeah. Look, you need to find some way to be able to forgive–

Kyle: Mom, I don’t want to hear your pleas for me and summer to work things out. Not when your meddling has already made things worse.

Devon: I gotta admit that leaving this penthouse wouldn’t be easy to do. ‘Cause there’s so much history here. You know, so many memories. I mean, I originally bought this place for hilary and I remember her initial reaction to it wasn’t what I expected. You said you wanted a real home, I thought that you’d be happy.

Hilary: First of all, this isn’t a real home. This is one of your gifts designed to keep me in line.

Devon: That’s not true.

Hilary: And secondly, how could you make such a huge purchase without consulting me? What if I don’t like this part of town?

Devon: This is your favorite neighborhood.

Hilary: Okay. What if I wanted a house with a yard?

Devon: Is that what you want?

Hilary: Maybe I want a pool or a tennis court?

Devon: Oh, hey, you remember we own athletic club right down the street. Or I could build you a gym downstairs. I could put a garden on the roof here. I mean, what– what do you really want?

Hilary: I want a damn say, okay? This is our life, devon. You and me. Sometimes I feel like I am just along for the ride. To smile and say thank you while you whip out your checkbook.

Devon: Well, that’s just not how I want you to feel at all.

Hilary: Then include me in things, okay? You wanna surprise me with a watch? Okay, fine. Go ahead, knock yourself out. But come on, devon. A home?

Devon: I agree with you. I get your point and I apologize, okay? But for the record, I did not buy this place for your gratitude.

Hilary: Really? You didn’t think that this big surprise was gonna make us kiss and make up?

Devon: Hilary, I bought this place because I love you and I want you to be happy. That’s the truth. Now for two seconds, can you forget about how much of an ass I am and just take a look around and see if you actually like it? Please? I mean, there’s more than enough space here for us. And think of all the ways that we can make it our own.

Hilary: Yeah, it has potential.

Devon: Sweetheart. This is in no way me trying to tie you down, okay? If anything, it’s me taking a step back so you can be exactly whoever it is you want to be. As long as that person is my wife, my partner, and my best friend.

Hilary: Well, it’s gonna need some paint.

Devon: Gosh. Hamilton-winters was created here too. I have so many good memories with neil in this place. Then again, it’s– this is also where he passed away.

Abby: I can only imagine.

Devon: Yeah. But, uh, you and I have made quite a few memories here. Wouldn’t you say?

Abby: Yes.

Devon: Remember when you set up that dinner so we could try out the food before you opened up society?

Abby: Yes.

Devon: It was fun.

Abby: Yeah.

Devon: And this is where we both realized that we’re in love with each other.

Abby: Yeah.

Devon: It’s not gonna be easy to leave this place. It’s a lot to think about.

Abby: Yeah. I don’t think I’ll be able to make a quick decision. I just, um, I don’t know. I wonder why chance is wanting to leave the chancellor house.

Devon: Well, I mean, I imagine because it probably gets lonely being by himself in such a big place. His mom and jill are rarely there. Dominic only comes over occasionally. I get it.

Abby: Yeah.

Devon: Maybe what he’s suggesting makes sense for us.

Abby: It would be nice to bring dominic back to the house where he spent the beginning of his life.

Devon: Yeah. It’s definitely something to think about.

Abby: Yeah. Even when I was with the people I love,

[ Ashley laughing ]

Tucker: So, if we– if we call your line simply ashley, we still need a name for the corporation.

Ashley: Yeah.

Tucker: So, what do you think would really piss jack off? How about, uh, mccall-abbott industries?

Ashley: Oh, I don’t like that at all. No, it should be abbott-mccall industries.

Tucker: Of course.

Ashley: Right? Because it’s just, you know, rolls off the tongue easier. It’s a much nicer ring to it. You think?

Tucker: All right. How about something a little more expansive?

Ashley: Uh-huh?

Tucker: Mcabbott universal?

Ashley: Oh, yeah. Okay, we gonna serve fries with that?

Tucker: Well, whatever the name is, it’s gotta– it’s gotta send a clear message that we mean business.

Ashley: Right. Right. I think that, um, anything with universal and global in it is just maybe a bit too expansive.

Tucker: How about, um, tushley?

Ashley: Okay, you’re not gonna stop are you?

Tucker: No.

Ashley: Not until I say yes? It’s a lot of fun talking about this imaginary company that we own together, right? But um, I’d like to know how the inner machinations would actually operate.

Tucker: The inner machination?

Ashley: Yes.

Tucker: What do you want? An organizational flow chart or something?

Ashley: Yes.

Tucker: You want to know who reports to whom and when.

Ashley: Yes. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. I want to know the dynamic we’d have.

Tucker: Between you and me? Oh, well–

Ashley: Well, obviously.

Tucker: We would be equals in every way, of course.

Ashley: Uh-huh.

Tucker: We would play off each other’s strengths.

Ashley: Right.

Tucker: Your brilliance in the lab creating products that people will die for. And my, uh, my remarkable business acumen.

Ashley: Right. About that. I mean wasn’t it that remarkable business acumen that pretty much tanked mccall?

Tucker: Yes, I…

Ashley: Did I say that?

Tucker: Did you say that? I know I– I made a misstep but my only fault was taking my eye off the ball and with you as my partner, I promise I will never take my eye off anything when it comes to you and me. Business or private. And I know that uh, with you at my side, you would never allow that to happen anyway. Would you? Have I convinced you yet?

Diane: My whole life has been a series of two steps forward and one step back. I mean, how long will it take for me to finally pay my dues?

Jack: Okay. Listen to me. You gotta stop thinking like that. This is phyllis’s doing, not yours. She knocked the floor out from underneath all of us with this stunt of hers and we’re all scrambling to regain our footing. Summer and kyle, you and me.

Diane: Well, I didn’t help matters using our grandson to try to mend kyle and summer. It was– it was pretty stupid.

Jack: It was not the best choice, but it’s done. And to your credit, it wasn’t malicious. You meant to help. You were trying to help kyle. And he will realize that as soon as he sees things clearly.

Diane: Well, I hope so.

Jack: You have to remember everything kyle is doing and saying right now is colored by his anger at summer. And that goes all the way back to phyllis.

Diane: I bet phyllis is having a good laugh right about now. I mean, even though I’m not in jail for her murder, she’s still getting revenge on me. A revenge that keeps causing pain. You know, she’s staying away so that she can avoid facing the music, but I bet there’s another reason. She knows that it is tearing this family apart and she is loving that.

Audra: So we meet again. And unfortunately, you don’t look like you’re in any better state of mind since the last time we met. Should I keep walking? Look for another saloon to have a quiet drink?

Kyle: No. Stay. Let me buy you one. With the freestyle libre 2 system.

Tucker: Champagne.

Ashley: Here’s to new beginnings.

Jack: Will you make me a promise?

Diane: Sure.

Jack: Will you embrace the positive and just let the negative in our lives take care of itself? We’re about to get married in the next couple of months. You’re gonna come work with me at jabot. We have so much to look forward to.

Diane: Yeah. Are you sure about jabot? I mean, me being there working with you, it’s bound to bring up conflict with ashley and maybe even billy.

Jack: Do I look like I care about that? As a matter of fact, let me show you something. You know how I asked the pr department to put together a press release about your new position? Asked them to polish things up and I wanted to send it out. Go?

Diane: Go.

Jack: Go.

Diane: Aw.

Jack: If the family is upset about that, too bad. They have a problem with this, it’s their problem, not ours.

Diane: Yeah. Mm.

Chance: You look like you could use someone to talk to.

Audra: So, something is clearly bothering you. Feel like talking about whatever it is?

Kyle: That’s the last thing I wanna do. Today has been absolutely disastrous. Hell, this whole week has been absolutely disastrous. What I really need is to forget about everything going on in my life. Shut it out. Pretend none of it is happening.

Audra: Yeah, I know that feeling all too well. Been there and I’m happy to help. Salud.

Kyle: Salud.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

How about I just sit here and you show me… and then I’ll watch? Okay. Legs straight. Cross over. And then crack your back. Just stretch it out. Yeah, I’m not gonna do that. Looks like it hurts. Well, you have to do something. No, I’m not gonna do that. You’re not gonna warm up? I’m not. No — confession. I asked you to meet me here because I didn’t think you would be able to. I didn’t think you — you would be free this evening. Really? Hm. Well, the joke’s on you because while, yes, carly’s case has been infiltrating many of my evenings, she is not facing a prison sentence. So here we are. Warm up. Carly’s very lucky to have you as a lawyer. Yep. But carly’s not the reason I thought you wouldn’t be free. Well, then what is? I was assuming it was…

[Singsong voice] Robert. So, we’re all in agreement? Yeah, absolutely. I think we go in there and we persuade anna to join us at the savoy. She’s been cooped up for a long time at home. And, well, remember what valentin said. No matter what, don’t take no for an answer. Um, can you smell something burning?

[ Sniffs ]

[ Door opens ] Anna. What are you doing? Just burning my past. Hey. Are you — are you warming his bottle? Um, you know, now that it’s officially summer, I was thinking I’d just make popsicles out of his formula, so I’m freezing it. Please tell me you’re joking. Obviously. I guess since laura and kevin aren’t here, I’ll have to share my good news with you. You’ve decided to turn yourself in for your many crimes? I just got my first paycheck. Ohh! Spencer: Honest pay for honest work. How does it feel? It felt great. Until I saw the amount. I was hoping it would be more. Yeah. I’ve been there. You worked? Mm-hmm. At kelly’S. It is a shock at first, but you get used to it. Yeah, well, here’s hoping. So how is the job? Um, well, you know, ace is loving daycare, and everyone at the daycare adores ace. I mean, who wouldn’t? He’s adorable. No argument there. And the invader staff seems to hate me much less now that I am transferring calls to the right people — mostly. That’s great. What? I’m just not used to you being nice to me. Well, uh, you know, grandmother asked the two of us to get along, at least while she and kevin are away, so… y-yeah, well, I mean, that’s just it, isn’t it? I mean, laura’s the reason we’re managing to get along even this well. I mean, and — and now laura’s going to chechnya to track down ace’s father. I’m just afraid that this is all gonna fall apart.

[ Ace fussing ] Where’s ned? Brook lynn: Maybe they just took him for some tests. No, he’s gone. No. He has to still be here! He doesn’t know who he is, so he wouldn’t even know where to go, right?! Right? How’s carly handling this? Well, how do you think? She’s ready to go to war for drew. War with who? I mean, look. This — even if — if ned’s responsible, he doesn’t even know who he is. Yeah, that’s convenient for ned and the worst possible outcome for drew. Ava, I didn’t plan for this to happen, but now that it has, I mean… there is a tiny part of me that almost — almost — feels sorry for carly. What is she going to do without drew for three long years? I know. It’s just — I feel so awkward. A-ava. L-let me call you back, okay? Just the person I’ve been looking for.

Are you insane? Do you realize how rarely the wsb gives out commendations? Yes, but it’s useless now, isn’t it? No, it isn’T. But you didn’t burn this newspaper instead. Look. I’m so sorry. I don’t mean to be rude, but I really intended to spend the evening alone, okay? Or you could come along with us to the savoy and maybe have a good time? You haven’t been out of the house in days. How do you know that? We’ve been surveilling you. Valentin reached out to us. He’s worried about you. Well, that’s just because he feels guilty. You know, we’re not spending his last night in port charles together, so… he told us that you insisted that he spend his last night with charlotte before he left for chechnya with kevin and me. Yeah, okay, so, apparently this is coming as a shock to all of you, but I am not very good company right now. Anna. Look. I have been enlisted to get you to come along to this club tonight. Now, the basic idea was valentin’s, and you know how much I despise him. So why don’t you come along and endure it? If I can do it, you can do it. That sounds like a lovely invitation. Just come with us. I don’t want to! I want to stay here — with my thoughts and my fire, alright? And you’re fine, right? Yes. Really? Yes. Then… what are you doing reading trash like this? Every word of it is true. I was a double agent. And innocent people were hurt because of me. And I really think that it’s about time I dealt with that. I have not been seeing robert. You said “have not,” and not “haven’T.” And when you do that, something’s wrong. I just don’t wish to discuss it. That’s all. Alright. I’m not gonna meddle. I’m just gonna pry. What happened with robert? Absolutely nothing! He chose holly. Holly left town. And that, as they say, is that. So if he chose holly, why did she leave town? I have no idea. Well, did robert say that he chose holly? No. He just didn’t call and he didn’t write. Ergo, he was at home nursing a broken heart. And as you know, I am nobody’s rebound. And as you know, I don’t wait by the phone. Hell no, you don’T. Mm-hmm. You deserve better.

[ Chuckling ] Damn right. Okay. I’m exhausted. Let’s go. You didn’t do anything! That’s how I exercise. You didn’t exercise! Let’s go get something to eat. You can’t eat! You haven’t exercised! Well, wait for me! Watch me. Alright, alright, alright. Grandmother wouldn’t have left us here alone if she didn’t think that we could handle it, esme. I’ve been doing everything that I can to share in this responsibility with you. Yes, you have been really helpful. I’m just wondering, will your commitment be the same when laura’s not here? I mean, what happens when it’s just you, me, and ace?

[ Knock on door ] Here. Will you please take him? I’ll get that. No, no. I-I’ll get it. Don’t listen to her. I’m not going anywhere. I thought you were staying in tonight. Here’s ned’s wallet. There’s no cash. Do you know if he was carrying any? I-I don’t remember. I don’t know. Alright. I’m gonna go talk to the nurses. Ned would not have left G.H. Eddie maine, however, is foolish, immature, and thoughtless. You know what? You know what? That is still my husband that you’re talking about. Yeah, well, in the immortal words of eddie maine, “lady, I don’t know you.” Okay. Listen! If they didn’t take dad for tests, maybe he just went for a walk or is raiding the vending machines, okay? We don’t know that he left the hospital. Chase will find out for us. This is not a reason to panic. Give it time. You were looking for me? Yeah. Let me buy you a drink, and you can tell me all about this place. The savoy? Yeah. Well, like, what kind of talent do you bring in here? And how are the crowds? They’re good, depending on the band. I-I’m sorry. I just have to ask you. Aren’t you supposed to be in the hospital? Ohh. You think you know me, don’t you? Well… you don’T. But you will soon. You and anyone else with a lick of taste and an ear for good music. My name’s eddie. Eddie maine. Nina. Nina reeves. Pleased to meet you, eddie. Nice to meet you. Let’s get that drink… nina reeves. Michael: At the moment, he doesn’t even know who my mom and drew are or the fact that he turned them in to the sec for insider trading. I was a silent partner in l&b records when eddie maine was touring. Ned lived a double life, but he always knew who he really was. Yeah, and now he thinks he’s eddie. How sure are the doctors? You think he’s lying? I didn’t say that, but I need to see it for myself. Well, here’s your chance. Let the good times roll.

uh, fine. They printed the truth. But it’s all ancient history, and you’ve more than atoned for all of it. Have I, though? I-I feel as if I threw myself into work so I wouldn’t have to face the truth of what I did… and that if I ran fast enough or far enough, then my past wouldn’t catch up with me. Right? And now it has. Oh, anna, you’re not running from your mistakes. If anything, you’ve owned up to your past. Laura: Look at it this way. Think of all the times you put your life at risk to help others. Now, were you doing that because you wanted to atone or because that’s just who you are? Some people may never know, but the fact is those acts of heroism and — and all the good that you’ve done, that can’t be denied. Laura’s right. You’re still a hero. I’m also a traitor. And you’ve called me that. And I just don’t want to involve you all in this by association. You know what, robert? Why don’t you, uh, go ahead and get us a table at the savoy? That’s a good idea. We’ll meet you over there. I’ll see you out. Yeah. What ever happened to not taking no for an answer? Yeah, well, we still haven’T. Get us a good table. Not too close. Perhaps for drinks, too? Oh, of course. Yes. I know what this looks like. But I’m not wallowing. Alright? I’m not. I think you’re taking stock. Yeah, I think that’s what I’m doing. Thank you for understanding. Of course. But what I don’t understand is why you’re shutting us out. Ned: I’ve been away from port charles for a while, so I’m just trying to get my bearings. I’m trying to find all the happening spots in town. What’s going on? Nina: Hey, honey. T-this is eddie maine. And he was just asking about the music scene here in port charles. Eddie, this is my fiancé, sonny corinthos. Oh! Well, I must say, your fiancé is one lucky guy. Yeah, I am. I apologize if I overstepped. What do you mean? Don’t worry. You didn’T. How about you let me buy you a drink? You know, I was just wondering why you’re in a nightclub when you just got out of the hospital. Now, how’d you know about that? Oh. Right. Well, sonny, hospitals are for sick people. Uh-huh. And lucky for me, I’m not sick. Right, right. So why don’t you let me buy you a drink? Michael, my son. We were j– michael. Eddie. Hey. Nice to meet you. Likewise. We w ant to hear all about yourmusic stories and everything. Weren’t you gonna make that call for me? Yes. Yes. Thank you for reminding me. It’s a business thing. I’ll be right back. Right. Excuse me. Uh, so, what — what kind of music do you play?

[ Line ringing ]

[ Sighs ] Come on, olivia. Pick up.

[ Cellphone rings ]

[ Scoffs ] This is the last thing I need. It’s nina. I can’t even begin to think about the metro court right now.

[ Cellphone rings ] Oh, my god! Just stop! Okay. I spoke to one of the nurses, and… don’t panic, but ned checked himself out.

[ Gasps ] How could they let him do that? He signed a form saying he was leaving against medical advice. What name did he use? If he signed out as eddie maine, they should have put him in a straitjacket instead of letting him run free.

[ Cellphone rings ] Okay. It doesn’t matter how he got out of here. The fact is that he’s gone and we got to figure out where. Ned would not have left the hospital. Eddie maine is probably busking on a street corner somewhere. What? I just wish I could think you were wrong. Well, where do musicians hang out?! You guys keep brainstorming. I’m gonna call this in to the station, see if they can help track down ned. Okay. That was nina. Oh, my god. She’s calling you?! What is her problem?! She found dad. Where? Where is he? At the savoy. A nightclub. Why didn’t we think of that? We better go before he tries to break loose again. Come on. Let’s go. Well, can’t nina just keep him there? Well, how?!

We couldn’t! Am I in trouble? Did I forget something? No. You didn’t forget anything. Oh. Okay. But I know how busy you’ve been, and I thought maybe we can have a chill night in. And I-I even brought some snacks. Well, it’s so good to see you, snacks or no snacks, but… are you guys gonna watch a movie? W-we — we haven’t decided yet. Well, I mean, there’s a lot of movies and shows on streaming right now. Yeah. Y– there — yeah. You guys don’t mind if I join you, do you? Um…

[ Trina and spencer chuckle ] I’m just kidding. Okay. I am going to go feed ace and then give him a bath, and then it’s bedtime for both of us. Um, isn’t that right, little guy? Want to go to bed?

[ Cellphone beeping ] Oh, there’s that timer. Sorry. I’ll, um — I’ll grab that. Oh, no, no, no. You have company. I’ll do it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

[ Sighs ] Wow. What? Just — it’s just a shock to the system to see you and esme together like this. Like what? Just… on the same side, like you used to be.

Right now I’m a front man without a band. Need to get one together. You got representation? No, not currently. I’m gonna put out some feelers, though. It’s been a while. Yeah. I know how that is. I’m sure — you know a few people in the music business, I’m sure, right, dad? Yeah. I don’t see why I can’t reach out. You’re not into music, are you? Uh, sure, yeah. Yeah. Really? Yeah. What was the last show that you went to? Uh, actually, phideaux. Right here on the stage. Phideaux. Never heard of him. Well, you should. But, then again, that was a long time ago. Since then, I’ve been kind of busy taking care of my family and running the business.

[ Chuckling ] Oh. Right. All business. You’re all business, aren’t — life is short. You got to live a little, kid. Right? Relax. How’d it go? Uh, great. Uh, the issue is headed to — to the press. Issue? I run a magazine. So, eddie, what do you think of the savoy? After some of the dives that I’ve played in, this place is a palace. And, look, you’re the mayor of port charles. You should not be seen with me. What if someone were to take our photo? I don’t care about that. Well, maybe you should. You know? You’re a politician. Yeah, you know, I didn’t get elected to office by trying to hide my past. And I am well aware of the complexity of yours. And I would be honored to have my picture taken with you. I would challenge anyone to compare the good you’ve done against the wrongs they’re writing. It’s no contest, anna. I appreciate that. And I knew, of course, that you wouldn’t turn your backs on me, no matter how much I want you to. But it isn’t about what other people think of me. This is what I think of me. And I had come to terms with my past and even the crimes that I was part of, you know? Because of my work as an agent, I felt that somehow I was balancing the scales. But now I’m no longer an agent, and I won’t ever be again, I realize that I’m not ready to let go of that part of my life. Because I feel like my work isn’t done. I invested in a small record company back in the ’90s. One of the co-owners was a friend of mine from the, you know, old neighborhood. Very ambitious. And she brought in two singers. One of them made it really big. Uh, I don’t know what he’s doing now. He’s just living the crazy life, I guess.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Oh. Uh, I am so sorry. I got another work call. Okay. You see? A beautiful woman like that, and she can’t even enjoy a night out. Take my advice, michael. Don’t let work consume you! Ned. Good to see you. Glad to see you out and about. I’m sure olivia’s delighted. Um, corinthos. A word? Hey, my friend. I’ll be right back, okay? Right. How can I help you? Well, I’m curious. Mm-hmm. Why does sonny corinthos need someone else to fight his battles for him? What battles are we talking about here? You’re gonna have to narrow it down. Okay. No problem. Well, actually, it is a problem… when you start using diane miller — diane miller? What are you talking about? Excuse me, district attorney. You’re not accusing my client of something without his attorney being present, are you? Esme and I are in no way on the same side. We’re just trying to make the best of a very, very messed-up situation right now. That’s fine. In fact… I’m glad your living situation is more…tolerable.

[ Chuckles ] Unfortunately, it means that you and i have less time to spend with one another, and for that, I am really sorry. I felt terrible when I had to leave curtis’ birthday party early.

[ Sighs ] What? Something happen?

[ Scoffs ] When is something ever not happening with my family? My family… which curtis is. Care to get more specific?

[ Exhales deeply ] Curtis and I were just starting to get closer and learn how to talk to one another… and he did something that really upset my mom. Do you want advice, or do you just need me to listen? I don’t think anybody can give me advice on this. Well, then, listening it is. Just an informal chat. Nothing official. I still don’t know what we’re chatting about, and at this point, I’m starting to lose interest. I don’t like the fact that you’re using diane miller to get confidential information from me.

[ Stammers ] Let me handle this. By all means. Where’s ned? He’s with sonny and michael. Alexis: Can’t take you anywhere. Where is he? Nina, where is ned? You said he was with sonny and michael. Well, he was. He was just here a second ago. What, you lost him?! Olivia, he can’t be far. We’re gonna find him. Good evening, everyone, and welcome to the savoy!

[ Cheers and applause ] Alright. So, I have some good news and, of course, some bad news. First, the bad news. Unfortunately, our opening act, caterwaul, got stuck in customs.

[ Patrons groan ]I know, I know. But the good news is, our headliner, the retrobates, will be out in just a few…minutes. Um, excuse me, sir. You can’t be up here. Well, if you need an opening act, I’m the man. How are ya? Poor charles! How’s everyone feeling tonight?

[ Applause ] Yeah! Port charles! How are we all feeling tonight?! Come on! Make some noise!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Okay. Everyone having a good time? Let’s get this party started! Ned! Come down from there! Oh, I don’t know that song, but here’s one you might recognize.

[ Guitar strums ] Ned!

[ Patrons gasp ] Ned! Ned! You’re okay. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I’m okay.

[ All murmuring ] I’m alright. I’m alright. Nina. Thank you so much. If you hadn’t called me, we would have never found him. I-I’m just glad I could help. Well, thank god he’s not halfway on his way to vegas by now. Ned’s gonna be fine. He’s sitting with michael. He’s gonna be okay, I think. Just needs some water. Look. I’m good, right? The crowd’s all warmed up. I need to get back out there. No, no, no, no. Hey, hey, hey. Look. The crowd can wait. And so can you. Sonny, he won’t listen to me. He thinks he’s someone else. He thinks I’m a complete stranger! It’s that bad? Yes. He doesn’t remember anyone. He didn’t remember brook lynn or tracy. He denied leo to his face. I mean, my — my little boy was devastated. I’m sorry. What do you want me to do? He doesn’t trust me. He doesn’t trust anyone in his family. Because you want him to be somebody he doesn’t remember being. I was talking to him. He didn’t seem all that — wait, wait, wait. Y-y-you didn’t mention that you knew him before? Not yet. Is that right…?

[ Clears throat ] Sorry. I just came to grab ace’s binky. Did you give him his bottle? Yes. And you turned on the noise machine? Maybe he needs to be swaddled. No, he’s too old for that. I came here to grab a pacifier, not attend a forum on parenting strategies. If I need anything, I will call you, but don’t hold your breath. So sorry about that. What were you saying? No. It’s okay. No, it’s not okay. I don’t like the way that she just spoke to you.

[ Sighs ] She’s tired. And if someone who didn’t have kids gave me unsolicited parenting advice, I would also be a little upset. Oh, no. Now I’ve got you defending her, as well. I told you. It’s alright. Except for that — okay. Yeah. Alright. Fine. I just don’t like it. I don’t like this whole…situation. Yeah, neither do I. I don’t, either. But this is how it’s got to be for ace — for now. Until we can find a way to get rid of esme. Just in case. We just have to find real evidence, evidence that we can trust. And once we do that, esme will be out of our lives forever. What the hell was that about? I hate the fact that corinthos thinks he can use you to get to me. Use me? Like you and holly used me? Or is that different? My goodness. You think so little of me, don’t you? No. It’s because I have so much respect for you. Oh, do you, now? And I hate the fact that sonny uses you to do his bidding. Okay, well, let’s get very clear. For one thing, I don’t do anyone’s bidding. I protect my clients. Like sonny. You know who I work for! For heaven’s sakes! I needed some information, so, yes, I asked you for it. Did sonny corinthos also need that information? Well, that’s attorney/client privilege. How convenient. And accurate. Besides, what do you care? I care probably a whole lot more than you realize. As an agent, as a cop, right, I felt that I had a purpose, like I-I was where I belonged. And now I don’t have that anymore, I — I’ve been asking myself the question… you know, what now? I completely understand. Felicia: So do I. In our own way, we all have had to reinvent ourselves. Yeah. Have you talked to valentin about it? I did, but, you know, I don’t want to burden him because he’s leaving with you. Um, I could tell him to stay here with you. No. Don’t do that. Please. You need him. I mean, I know you’re very capable, but a U.S. Government official isn’t supposed to travel to chechnya. Valentin — he has a lot of contacts there, and… and he speaks the language. Yeah, I think you really need him. Well, to be honest, I was really surprised when he offered to go with me, and it actually meant a great deal to me, so… and right now I-I need all the help I can get. Good. That’s settled, then. I’m gonna come with you to chechnya.

You know how much I value our friendship. Our…relationship.

[ Chuckling ] We don’t have a relationship, robert. Last time I checked, we were simply two colleagues who occasionally find ourselves on opposite sides of a courtroom and, even rarer, on opposite sides of a dinner table. It doesn’t have to be like that. Would you be saying that if holly hadn’t left town? You are absolutely right. I can’t wait for that day. Sorry to interrupt again, but ace won’t go down for bed. What is that silly song you sing to him? It’s not a silly song, esme. You just don’t sing it right. Okay, well, why don’t you sing it to him and I will listen so I can try and learn it better? Or is it too much asking you to sing to your baby brother? You know what? You guys seem to have your hands full. I’m just — I’m gonna take off. No. Stay. Please. No. It’s okay. You go sing your silly song to your brother and put him to bed. Trina, I — I don’t want it to be like this. Neither do I. But it’s not gonna be like this forever. Right? And with her track record, we won’t have to wait for long. I can’t really imagine what this must be like for you. I know that you don’t remember me and that you — you don’t want to be pressured into — into feeling things that — that you don’t feel — or — or — are you sure this is a good idea? Olivia wanted to talk to ned alone. Olivia: …That we love was in an accident… well, what do you think now that you’ve seen eddie maine up close? Ned is not faking it. No matter how I feel about him, he would not put his family through this. Olivia: …But we know that you were. Just come back to the hospital. Why? I’m not sick. But — but you just got dizzy on the stage and had to be helped off! I was — I was a little dehydrated, but I just had some water and I’m — I’m right as rain. No, no. What you had was a major head injury and — and chest compressions!

[ Guitar plucking ] And — could you stop tuning that thing?! It’s not even yours! Well, whosever it was, they shouldn’t have left it on the stage. Yeah, just like a man with a head injury who doesn’t know who he is should not be just walking out of a hospital! I couldn’t stand being in that hospital room one more second, being told what to do, when to eat, when to sleep, being told who I am or who I’m not. I know who I am! I know that — I know that you think that you do. And, please, if you can’t come home for me, I understand, but… but please believe me. Your kids are your kids. Could you do it for your kids? Look. I appreciate what you’re trying to do. And I think I even know what you’re going through. And I’m truly sorry. I am. That I’m causing you pain. I don’t want to hurt anyone. Then stop! But I can’t be someone I’m not. Right. And you can’t love someone that you don’t know. You upset about something? Yeah. Well, it’s just I hate seeing ned’s family in so much pain. That’s what I love about you. You got a big heart. Yeah.

oh then you take me by the hand I feel better again oh I feel better now ned, please! It’s “eddie.” Please. O-okay. Eddie. Eddie. If — if you’re not going back to the hospital, could you please just come home? Or you know what? You know what? Why don’t you come back to my place? Come back to my place. You can even have your own room. I appreciate the offer, but I, um… it doesn’t feel right to me. I need to be on my own. Shh. Okay, well, I will call you tomorrow and we will set up an actual date? Yeah. I would like that.

[ Ace fussing ] Esme: Shh. I know. I know. Hey, spencer. Where’s ace’s piggy? Spencer, the piggy. Go find the piggy. I know the way out. Okay. Spencer: Believe it or not, esme, the toy pig is in the toy bin. Please give him to me. Thank you. Hey. Lullaby and good night in the sky stars are bright wild roses in bloom fill with fragrance the room lay you down now and rest may your slumber be blessed

[ Indistinct conversations ] Olivia, I’m gonna pick him up and I’ll bring him back to my place. Thank you. Go after him. Please. Please. Yeah, yeah. Of course. Of course. Thank you. Alright. You good? Yeah. Come on. Okay.

[ Sighs ]

[ Sobs ] I-I have a lot of contacts, you know, more than valentin. And I was kind of thinking, you know… why have one fallen wsb agent when you can have two? Anna, you’ve just been accused of being a double agent. How do you think it will look if you suddenly just… take off? And go to chechnya? Of all places! I thought you didn’t care about optics. I don’t care about how this looks for me. I’m worried about how it looks for you. Do you think that this would somehow make my reputation look worse? I think it will look like you’re running away. Well, what am i supposed to do, then? What am I supposed to do? I help people. That is what I do. It’s who I am, laura! And if I’m not an agent for the wsb, who am I? You don’t need the wsb to give you purpose. There are plenty of people in the world that could use someone like you on their side. Maybe you’d be one of them. Oh, are you kidding me? Before all this happened, you would have been my first phone call. But it did happen. And now helping me will do nothing to help you. Okay. Anna. I promise you… you will find a new path. It may even find you. I know that ned and I have been at odds lately.

[ Chuckles ] Not anymore. Because he’s not ned. I know. Olivia. Olivia. But he will be again. Alright? I-I promise you, I’m gonna do everything I can to help you and ned through this, okay? Okay. Where’s my dad? He left. I tried to get him to come back home, but… well, we have to find him. He’s not safe out there. Sonny went after him. He’ll look after him tonight. Okay. Well, that’s great. Well, what about tomorrow night and the night after that? And the night after that and the night after — chase: Then we will cross that bridge when we come to it. In the meantime, I have a feeling that eddie maine can handle himself. I don’t get what holly’s leaving had to do with anything. I specifically asked you to call me when you had decided who you wanted to be with. And you never called. That’s because holly left town. So you thought your decision had been made for you. Robert, answer me this. Do I look like someone who would appreciate being chosen by default? Exactly. See, it’s just not good enough. And I can’t believe you thought it ever would be.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

And I’m kind of knocking with breakfast. Those two in grapes will have a little bit more appreciation, but no. EJ ate a bit, but Kristen turned her nose up at everything I brought down. So high maintenance in their defense. Megan, I think it’s safe to assume being held captive isn’t the most enjoyable of pastimes.

Lee, we cannot have two turn coats on the loose now, can we? They cast their shadow across my bright vision of the future. I got what’s coming to them that makes them a tad cranky and impatient, and so be it. Oh, speaking of impatient, how’s it all going? Tell me you’ve got good news for me. I do. I’ll be leaving soon.

Well, if we arriving any moment, great. But you just make sure that he knows what we expect of him. Brainwash shares Michaels. I know. And soon, so will he. Excellent. Once I have Michaels under my control again. Nothing can stop us.

Hey, so we have a lot to discuss. Yeah. First, tell me about your friend, the mayor. Any news on his disappearance. No, no. I just talked to one of the detectives and they have nothing. Mm. Which really calls me because Megan Hathaway still free to stalk the streets, and he had Abe, a really good guy, really runs the best of us.

He’s nowhere to be found.

Oh, I think I need to go lie down. Can I give you a hand? Yeah. I think I need it.

You, you don’t seem very steady. Do you have like a, a cane or anything to help you out?

What do you mean? I mean, this is a, this is a new suit. Is is my tie to wife. Your clothes are fine then the problem is that ugly ass hospital of yours. Oh yeah. No. Paulina doesn’t like it either, but, but what do you want me to do? I, I’m still unsteady. I mean, the last thing I wanna do is wipe out walking down the aisle at my own wedding.

Well, that’s a good thing. Your best man’s got you covered. You that

something wrong. Paul pops,

you keep calling me Pops.

You’re not my son.

Thank you so much. All right. Appreciate it. Bye. Phil, please gimme about three minutes and I’ll come and talk to you. Um, before you go back in there, can I just ask. Why are you questioning that nurse about my dad?

When, when I reviewed the case file on the day that your dad disappeared, I saw that Ms. Whitley King left the hospital early and I wanted to know why. What’d she say? She said that she wasn’t feeling well. Do you believe me?

I’m sorry, Abe. F B I breathing down my neck. What choice do I have?

Poor baby. You’re gonna have to die. Hi.

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

Hey, hey, um, I’m sorry. Um, I tried calling but you didn’t pick up. Uh, yeah, I was, I was in the shower. I’m, I’m lucky. I, I heard you knock. Yeah,

me too.

Okay, but what if he starts asking me about his life? Oh, or mine. Oh my God. You’re an actor. Just improvise. Improvise. You’re right, right, right. Just make some stuff up. Like talk to him. Your your guys. Do guy talk. That’s just the amnesia talking pops. Look, I, I, I’m your son Theo, and I, I love you a lot. Uh, but you’re just really not yourself right now.

I may not.

And I just had just now a vivid memory of my wedding day, and it was as bright as day, and I was talking to my best man. My son

and it wasn’t you. Uh, you’re really starting to worry me, pops. Um, let me get you a glass of water. All right.

So much for these acting skills. Oh,

Now, here’s the thing. When a hospital employee is sick, the protocol is to leave immediately. So she did the right thing. But what got my attention is that when Ray questioned her, she didn’t even mention it.

Agent Grant, I I, I’m very sorry to bother you. Uh, I really must get home. Is there anything else that you need from me today? Is everything okay? Yes. Well, a actually, no. Uh, my cat is sick as I, as I told you, and, uh, my neighbor has to leave and so I must get home and tend to him. He’s very old and very feeble, so.

Yeah. Um, sure. Yeah, you can go. If I need anything, then you’ll hear from me. Oh, no problem at all. Right. Bye bye. Bye bye now. Mm-hmm. Thank you for coming in. Oh, thank you. No, thank you. Wow. Is it just me or does she seem super anxious?

Yeah, I’m sorry. I seem a little, um, Yeah, once I heard the news, I dropped everything and I rushed over here. Come in please. Yeah. Thanks. Um, so yeah, so Bell came to the station. She was looking for you and uh, I don’t have all the details yet, but evidently Trask is willing to cut a deal. A deal. Hmm. What does that mean?

It means that Talia probably won’t have to serve any jail time. Are you kidding? Oh no. Oh my God. Yeah. Oh my God. Yeah. Oh, I can’t believe this. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you so much. Yeah.

Oh, Lee, if my heart didn’t belong to another man, I would kiss you. Not necessary. I assure you. So you’re positive everything’s secure with EJ and Kristen. I am. EJ is away on a fictional business trip, so all I have to do is send text messages to his dopey girlfriend and Stephan with his phone. And Kristen, no one’s looking for her except for her daughter.

And all she does is text, preteen, dribble. So I’ve just parked her phone in a drawer and on to more important things. As I told you, I’ll be meeting Ralph shortly, right. Just remember it’s imperative. But he understands that time is of the essence. So whatever he needs, he has it. There’s something he needs that we haven’t discussed.

The commander himself, well, don’t worry about that. He’s well within our grasp and he will do away with Stephan while we keep our hands clean and in her grief. Gabby will turn to me. She will indeed, and my little brother, Stephan, well, he’s in for quite a surprise. Am.

Oh, I’m sorry. I, um, no, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have, uh, brave. If you hadn’t, I would’ve jaya sh Just listen, listen to me. Okay. I, I, I wound up running into Kate downstairs and we started talking. And, and maybe she told me what I wanted to hear, but what she said, it, it really, it really changed my perspective.

What would she say? I mean, she said that, you know, what we do at work is one thing and what gives anyone the right to police what we do in the privacy of our own homes. It’s, it’s nobody’s business. And, uh, I think Kate is. Absolutely right.

So look, I appreciate your concern for my friend, but we have other pressing things to talk about. Like Shawn ruining your plan to grab Megan. Yeah, well, she was armed, he was drunk. I had to get Shawn out of there. She could have killed him. She could still kill him. I mean, she’s still free to create whatever chaos she wants to, and she also knows that you’re coming after her.

So how do we proceed now that you’ve lost the element of surprise? Kate? I’m, uh, I’m well aware of the situation, Kate. That’s why I’ve already prepared for my next encounter with Megan before I even left the property.

Oh, you have to go. No problem. Chat for now.

I didn’t hear you come in. Hmm. Obviously not. So what’s this big surprise you have in store for me? Well, I’ll just say that there are bad surprises and good surprises, and this one is in the latter category somehow. I’m not comforted by that. Fine, I’ll tell you, spoil sport. Hmm? It has to do with the party that I am planning to celebrate your engagement to.

Gabby, you told us about that. It’s hardly a surprise. Ah, but not when I was gonna keep you in the dark until the main event. But I would like to say I wouldn’t make any plans for tomorrow night if I were you. Oh, well thank you. And now that you know. I guess I’ll have to figure out another surprise for you tomorrow night.

Feel, I suppose that anyone would be anxious if they’re being questioned by the fbi? Yeah, I guess, but I don’t know. She seemed super nervous when I was talking to her earlier in the waiting room. Really? Yeah, like her hands were shaking. So what did she say? You know about not telling Rafe that she left early Liberty and my dad disappeared.

She just didn’t think it was important.

What are you thinking? Maybe it was important and that’s why she didn’t say anything, Eli. Somebody took my dad from the hospital that day and Nurse King’s whereabouts are unaccounted for. So I just hope that you’re not ruling her out. Hey, uh, here, go pops. Uh, drink some water and you’ll be, I don’t want any damn water.

I wanna know who the hell you are. Pops. I’m your son. Who else would I be? Hello there. Oh, hi there. How are my two guys? How’s my father and son duo? Did you have fun catching up? No, we did not. Um, actually there’s kind of a problem. Paulina uh, pops keeps saying I’m not who I say I am. What? Oh no, what are you talking about?

Of course. That’s your son, Theo. That’s a damn lie. He is not my son. I don’t even know him well. Well darling, you’re getting all worked up. You know, let me go and get you some water. I don’t want any damn water.

I want the truth.

Paulina, I had a very clear. Memory of our wedding day. Your best man has you covered. That’s what my son said. My real son, not this damn posture. So now, now I am starting to question everything.

Theo, I’m not ruling anyone out just yet, including Nurse King, but the issue here is evidence. Okay. So what about security cameras? They’ve gotta be all over the place in that hospital. I checked the cameras. Nothing. Hey, yeah, that, that brings up a good point because Nurse King would know where the cameras are and how to avoid them.

But Frank was given Ms. Willie King’s Hospital record. I mean by the looks of this thing. It’s immaculate. I mean, there’s not one negative word in here. She’s caring, compassionate. It’s a model nurse. So we just give up on her. She’s a good nurse. So that’s it, dear. I know this is hard, okay? It’s hard for me too, but I promise you I’m not ruling anyone out just yet.

She also said that file says at all. No, I never said that this file says at all. In fact, before she got here, I put in a request to have a background check on her.

Fuck. Let’s go in the room and see where the FBI turned up. Promise you if she’s telling stories, it’s not gonna hold up under FBI’s scrutiny.

Oh, darling, you, you, you’re getting worked up over nothing. There’s a simple explanation for everything. There is nothing simple about this. Wow. This, he’s, this is not an imposter. This is your son, Theo. And your other son was also at your wedding? My other son, yes, Brandon. He was your best man, and you just are your memories getting all mixed up.

See, doesn’t that make sense?

Grief, I hope you know that I would never do anything that could jeopardize your career. Of course. I know that. Of course. I was just, I was shocked to hear you say that because I was thinking the same thing. Don’t tell me Kate got to you too. No, no, no. It wasn’t Kate, it was Eli. Yeah, he asked about us cuz um, I guess it was obvious, you know, but he is a detective and he also had been through a similar situation with Lonnie, although they were partners, he was not her boss.

Right. But they were meant to be. And even now. Even now, nothing can stop him. I mean, he is patiently waiting for her to get out and talking to Eli just got me thinking this doesn’t matter. Doesn’t matter about a rule or a law or anything. If it is meant to be, then it will be. So what are you saying? We’re meant to be.

I’m saying

I wanna find out.

Welcome home. What happened? Why are you wet? One of the hazards of traveling via a submarine. You came in a submarine, princess Gina, some point of fact, a fine mode of transportation, especially when one wishes to arrive by stealth. You understand if I’m a little wary of running afoul of the authorities given my hasty departure last time after deprogramming stuff in the mirror?

Well, Let’s hope your skills in that department haven’t rusted with time. Ah, it cut but be to mess with that poor man’s brain yet again. Relax. Relax. This isn’t about Stephan. You recall Commander Michaels, I assume the Navy Seal. Megan ve had me back on. Mm-hmm. She needs him back under her control.

Well, don’t leave me in suspense. How have you prepared for your next encounter with Megan? After, uh, getting Shawn out of the house, I placed a small tracking device on her car. I mean, she can’t stay cooped up there forever. Eventually she’ll come out and she’ll be mine.

I am sorry. I spoiled the surprise, Megan, but I guess it’s just as well, right? EJ won’t be back from his business trip by tomorrow, so I wouldn’t worry about EJ crashing your party. I would like to include Kristen though. Have you seen her? Kristen? Yeah. Kristen, her sister. Blonde lady roaming around here a little.

It’s funny, I, I poked my head in her room and her bed looked like it hadn’t been slept in. You wouldn’t know anything about our whereabouts, would you?

Well, we can’t keep anything from you, can we, I’m afraid. Um, Kristen is indisposed tomorrow evening as well,

so Kristen won’t be there. You know this because, I saw her leave. She said goodbyes and she headed outta town last night.

I don’t understand. Well, the door, the front door is right through there, and she crossed the threshold out into the world and closed the door behind her. Oh, Megan, you know very well. That’s not what I mean. Ever since Kristen has been back, all she’s wanted is custody of her daughter back. That’s all she talks about.

And so now you’re telling me just out of the blue, she books a vacation somewhere. I said that she left town. I didn’t say she was going to The Bahamas and she has not given up on her daughter. Quite the contrary. She’s taken a proactive step. You more than anyone else should know that Damira has cannibalized all of the competent lawyers in town here.

So she’s headed to New York to see if she can find a custody lawyer who can grind Brady Black into the ground. And she had quite a significant list to go through, so I shouldn’t imagine that she’ll be home anytime in the next few days. Maybe weeks. So you said she left last night? I did. If you were alone when I came in here, who’s that extra breakfast plate?

Belonged to

tell me. Mr. Shin says, what does Megan ha have up her sleeve this time? If I remember correctly, her last escapade was about an elixir for eternal youth. She goes by De Marina, and all you need to know is that she requires a unique talent to fulfill a very ambitious plan. So the question is, Dr. Rolf, are you up to the task of getting Michael’s back under her control?

My boy, this would be child’s play. I could do it in my sleep.

That was, um, better than I imagined. I’ll admit, I’ve done a bit of imagining. Me too. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

So now what? Well, I don’t, I don’t want us to keep imagining, you know, being together like this. I, I want it to keep happening. For real. Me too. Oh, yeah. Oh yeah.

All right, so let’s see. Whitley King, born in Scottsdale, Arizona. Youngest of five. Father was a pastor, mother school teacher. She paid her own way through college and nursing school. I mean, it’s, it’s all pretty unremarkable. Uh, she’s on her own now, so she’s a loner. Now. Now she was married once, divorced, widowed, just a couple of years back, and no kids.

Anything else? I’m sorry, man, but this just isn’t the profile of a criminal.

Theo. I know you had your hopes up. But upstanding citizens don’t just turn the crime without a reason. And by the looks of it, this woman doesn’t have a reason.

Well, sweetheart, does that clear everything up? Hell no. It’s just the opposite. Why the hell didn’t you tell me I had another son? Why would you keep that from me, Abe? I know I should have told you sooner. I know, but. But, but you haven’t seen Brandon since the wedding. Um, actually, he doesn’t really approve of us, and I’m sorry to say, but the two of you had a falling out and I, I just didn’t wanna bring this up.

You had so much going on and I didn’t wanna share that tension with you. And I just, it would’ve seemed cruel, you know, but now it’s out in the open and, uh, Hopefully that just clears everything up now,

I suppose. Yeah. Yeah. And you,

I owe you an apology. I was, I was harsh with you before. That’s okay. Pops. Um, I’m, I’m just worried about you and, uh, I want you to get better. You know what, Theo, you’ve had such a long flight coming in from South Africa. You must be exhausted. Let’s get you to the hotel and rest up. Yeah, I am feeling a bit tired.

Yeah. Let’s, I’ll walk you out. Sure. Alright, come on. See, you see Pops? Yeah.

You are so lucky that he has another son. I, I leave you over two minutes and damn it Jerry, I told you to improvise in case something happened. What? I tried, improv is hard. Okay. You know what? Forget it. Just don’t have any time to waste. There’s something else I need you to do for me,

and don’t worry, there’s no improv. Just wait here for a second. There’s something I gotta go to first. Jerry,

what are you doing?

Don’t worry, darling. This won’t take long.

Oh, what won’t take long. I need to get a blood sample from you. Blood sample. Yes. Right before I came home, I got a call from the hospital. They want you to come all the way back down there just to get one little sample. I told him that you’re doing very, very well, but just not quite well enough to make that trip all the way back down there for something I could do right here in the comfort of our own home.

Okay? Okay.

Okay. Here’s an option. How about we never get out of this bed? And we just, we just leave the world and it’s stupid rules behind tempting, but

we both have jobs to do. So here’s another option. Okay. How about at work? We are consummate professionals committed to the forest. Mm-hmm. But behind and closed doors we’re committed to each other. Oh, I like that option a lot.

You gotta get back to work. No, no, no. I have to get back to work for you. You have to get that rest that I ordered you to get. Oh gosh. Mm-hmm. I knew you would find a way to pull rank, but you know what? Hmm? To complete that game, huh? And I am not going to let you leave without giving me another kiss. Oh, okay.

Mm-hmm.

There we go. All done. I’ll just run this down to the hospital. You know, I could go with you, huh? I think I’m feeling up to it. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You stay here and rest. I insist I’ll be back at two shakes of a lamb’s tail. Oh, I know you’re probably going stir crazy in here, but do this my way. It’s gonna be best for all of us.

Now listen up. This is what I need you to do. I was alone when you got here. But before that, my son, Dimitri was here and we were having breakfast fussy eater that he is. He turned his nose up at the breakfast sausages. Ah, I see. He is lost then. Good to know. I’ll make sure to include it on the menu for your last meal.

Your last meal is a bachelor before your wedding day sausages. Better write that down so I don’t forget.

Ah,

quite the shopping list, Ralph. That was the last time I performed work like this was under trying circumstances to say the least. Lots of proper tools. This time, instead of having to resort to a collection of kitchen implements and pub paraphernalia, not too much to ask in exchange for my talents, I suppose not.

Plutonium. If you want my work to stick this time, I need everything on that list. Everything okay? Okay. Relax. You’ll get it. Excellent. That is the subject. Now, we’ll make him available to you very soon. Is it really today to reconsider Megan’s fate? I mean, honestly. I mean, it doesn’t make any sense to disappear her into parts unknown if she’s just gonna escape and make her way back here.

Okay. Okay. Take my word for it. Once she’s gone, she’s not coming back. Is that arrogance or confidence? Michael’s experience.

What is it? It’s Megan, she’s leaving the house as we speak. I better go. Good luck. Luck will have nothing to do with this.

I guess Megan already left. I was gonna ask her if she thought there was a small chance Christian could make an appearance at our engagement party, but you’re right as you always are. I should just call her myself. All right. I’m gonna give her a ring and uh, let you know what she says. Love you.

Why the hell would Kristen go to New York without her phone

friend Michaels. You following me?

We have unfinished business. Megan,

your moments are numbered. Megan Deir, you Smart, evil witch. First sign of insanity. Hey, Jayda, talking to yourself. I’m in. Uhha. Right. Although I’m not sure that you heard what I was saying. Oh, I, I didn’t actually. Right, right. I was just bemoaning the fact that my son Rex really gets in touch with me. You know, the doctor.

Right, right. Mm. So, um, is that rave that I saw leaving before? It was actually. Mm-hmm. So did you take my advice?

Alright, let’s start from the beginning. Tell us everything you saw.

Hey, Brandon. No, no, there still no news about that. But I was at the station a couple of minutes ago when Eli and Raf got a call. Yeah, leave. I think, well, they rushed out to check it out without telling me much about it, but, um, hopefully we’ll finally get some answers.

You are gone for a long time, Pauline. I’m sorry Hun, but I wanted to wait for your test results and, and. You passed with flying colors. Good news. Oh, I was walking way over there when I saw someone by the edge of the docks and he looked, uh, totally out of it. What do you mean out of it? Uh, wobbly, like unsteady.

And then the next thing I know, uh, he just stumbles and hits his head on one of the pylons. And, and then splash right into the drink. And then I, I ran over here, but he must have sunk like a stone because I, I can’t swim otherwise I would’ve jumped in after him. Mm-hmm. And no one else was around. Uh, I called for help, but no one came.

All right. You stay here. We’re gonna check this out. Hey Ray, look at this. Yeah. It’s blood. It’s fresh.

Oh God, what’s this?

What is it?

Ridge: After all these years, you still amaze me.

Brooke: Oh, ridge.

Ridge: Yeah. You’re in a town that you know pretty well, you have gps on your phone and you still get lost. It’s amazing.

[ Brooke laughing ]

Brooke: It is amazing, but it guess I’m better at following my heart. It led me right where I am meant to be.

Ridge: Well, I can’t argue with that.

[ Saxophone playing ] What is that? Do you hear that?

Brooke: I don’t know.

Ridge: It’s nice.

Brooke: Yeah. Maybe we should go find out.

Ridge: Are you up to something?

Brooke: Come on, let’s go.

Wyatt: Liam, talk to me here.

Liam: Yeah. Okay. All right. Yeah. Um… I flew to rome to surprise hope. You know, ’cause we had been at odds lately, and I thought that I should be there for her. And, um, I wanted to make it in time for the preview and– and the press conference. But I– I– I– I wasn’T. I was too late. So I just, I took off looking for hope.

Wyatt: Okay. But how– how did you know where to go? I mean, rome is such a huge city. Like–

Liam: Believe me, I know. At first, I was just wandering around, but then I remembered, um, the colosseum. She– she had been talking about how much she wanted to see the colosseum and I figured that’s where she would be.

Wyatt: And was she?

Liam: Yeah. She wasn’t alone. I mean, at first, I couldn’t see who it was. Thomas.

Wyatt: Yeah, of course. I mean, he’s been obsessing and wanting your wife for years.

Liam: But I was wrong. I didn’t see it.

Wyatt: What? You didn’t see what?

Liam: Everything. Everything that steffy was telling me, the warnings. She– she was trying to get me to listen and I didn’t wanna hear it. I didn’t wanna believe that it wasn’t– thomas wasn’t the one to worry about. It was– it was hope.

Wyatt: What? No! No. Dude–

Liam: Wyatt, I saw this with my own eyes. Hope grabbed him and she kissed him. And if anything, he was the one taken off guard. But she– she– she initiated it. She kissed him. She kissed him. She wanted him. She chose him.

Hope: Look, steffy, I can understand if maybe you’re a little upset about your dad and my mom getting back together, but, you know, if it’s true love and a real commitment–

Steffy: Uh, you know all about love and commitment, right?

Hope: Steffy, this has been a really great trip and I would hate to sour that. I mean, the preview was a success. The press loved the designs. Our parents are happy. I mean, this– this should be a win.

Steffy: Yes. Especially for you and thomas. But you’re right. The preview was a hit. You must feel like you’re on some kind of a high right now. Rome was a magical place. Something you’ll never forget.

Brooke: This is andrea’s wife, veronica.

Veronica: Nice to meet you.

Ridge: Nice to meet you.

Brooke: And their precious daughter, virginia.

Ridge: Hi, virginia.

Virginia: Hi. Did you enjoy your stay in our villa?

Ridge: Uh, yeah. It’s beautiful. I just didn’t know that this is where we were.

[ Brooke laughing ]

Brooke: We can’t thank you enough. Really.

Veronica: It’s totally our pleasure.

Andrea: I hope you enjoyed my songs.

Ridge: Maestro, I’m– I’m speechless. Thank you.

Veronica: I know andrea does have that effect on people, but, you know, I’m so happy we were able to put this together for you.

Brooke: Oh, me too. Thank you.

Ridge: This is crazy, logan. Crazy.

Brooke: All for you.

[ Brooke chuckling ] – Hey. – Hey so,

Wyatt: I don’t even know what to say.

Liam: I don’t think there’s anything to say.

Wyatt: Are you– are you sure that’s what you saw? Because, I mean, you said yourself, you haven’t even had a chance to talk to her about it.

Liam: There’s no mistaking what I saw. Hope betrayed me with the one person she knows would end our marriage.

Wyatt: Uh, what can I do? Uh, what do you need, you know?

Liam: I don’t know. I think, um… I think maybe I just need to be alone.

Wyatt: Are you– are you sure? I mean, I– I can crash on the couch. Like, if you need somebody to be here. All right. Uh… I’m sorry, bro.

Thomas: Here you go.

Steffy: Oh, thanks.

Thomas: Welcome. That’s what your brother’s supposed to do. It’s a good trip, right?

Steffy: Yeah. Especially for you and hope.

Thomas: Yeah. We’d be nowhere without our co-ceo. I’m guessing finn’s gonna be excited to have you back home.

Steffy: I’m sure he has been holding it down and li and mom have been taking care of the kids.

Thomas: That’s good. I, um, I know why you’re upset, stef.

Steffy: Do you?

Thomas: Yeah. Dad and brooke being back together. We were there with mom when she told us she wanted a life with dad. She’s gonna be devastated, but it– it’ll be okay. I mean, if dad and brooke wanna be together, so be it. Mom will find her happiness. I know it.

Steffy: I just, uh, I guess I wasn’t prepared for being so surprised in rome. Definitely a kiss of fate.

Thomas: Kismet, for sure. All right, well, I’m gonna check in with the pilot. Good work.

Carter: Wouldn’t be a forrester event without some drama.

Hope: What are you talking about?

[ Carter chuckling ]

Carter: Ridge and brooke holding up this flight. But it’s all good. And you know what? I am relieved. Everything went great.

Hope: Well, you know, carter, you were a very big part of that success.

Carter: Thank you. But that’s not what I mean. Everyone is so happy. And it was a huge success and no scandals, no damage control to worry about. And on top of that, your mom and ridge are back together again. You gotta love a fairytale ending, right?

[ Hope chuckling nervously ]

[ Church bell ringing ]

Ridge: Wow. That was cool.

Brooke: It was cool.

Ridge: Andrea bocelli is singing for us here and– and we’re staying at his house. How did you pull that off?

Brooke: I have my secrets.

Ridge: Well, tell me your secrets. I need to know these things.

Brooke: Veronica loves forrester creations. She’s been wearing our designs for 20 years now. I thought you knew that.

Ridge: I did not know that.

Brooke: You didn’t?

Ridge: Uh-uh.

Brooke: Okay. Well, she was nice enough to let us use her villa. We’ve been friends. We’ve been staying in touch. She helped me set up the surprise.

Ridge: I– you know, I don’t think I’ve ever been starstruck like that.

Brooke: Andrea is amazing.

Ridge: Mm-hmm. You are amazing.

Brooke: Thank you. Well, maybe we should get out of here.

Ridge: Okay.

Brooke: Let them have their villa back.

Ridge: Oh, I thought you meant, you know, the other thing.

[ Brooke chuckling ] All right.

Brooke: Okay.

Ridge: Arrivederci, roma.

Brooke: Arrivederci.

Ridge: City of eternal love. Well, you were right. I will love you for all eternity.

Brooke: And I will love you forever.

Ridge: Yeah?

Brooke: Yeah.

[ Cannon blasting ]

[ Brooke chuckling ]

Brooke: Scared me.

Ridge: Every time.

Recap written by Suzanne

At Anna’s house, Laura, Robert, and Felicia tried to reassure Anna and convince her to join them at the Savoy, but Anna felt like a traitor and believed her work was incomplete. Felicia and Laura shared their experiences of reinventing themselves, and Laura suggested that Anna would find a new path. Anna agreed to accompany them to Russia.

At Laura and Kevin’s house, Trina visited Spencer, who was with Esme. Trina and Spencer shared their frustrations about the situation and their desire to get rid of Esme. They discussed evidence they had found that could incriminate Esme. Later, Trina and Spencer kissed in front of Esme, and Trina expressed hope that the situation wouldn’t last long.

At the hospital, Tracy, Olivia, and Brook Lynn searched for Ned, who had checked himself out against medical advice. They received a call from Nina, who informed them that Ned was at the Savoy. Ned, believing he was Eddie Maine, took the stage and caused concern for his family. Sonny and Michael approached Ned, and Sonny had a private conversation with Robert, expressing his concern about Sonny using Diane to get information. Ned’s family tried to convince him to go home, but he insisted on being alone. Sonny promised Olivia he would bring Ned home, and he returned to Nina, recognizing her big heart. Robert and Diane argued about their relationship, with Diane accusing Robert of not being good enough for her.

Interview with Jamie Bamber

Posted on by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

 

Jamie Bamber as Harry King in "Cannes Confidential" on Acorn

Interview with Jamie Bamber of “Cannes Confidential” on Acorn by Suzanne 6/23/23

It was wonderful to speak with Jamie on Zoom today. As I told him, I’ve been a huge fan of his ever since “Battlestar: Galactica,” which he starred in (20 years ago this December!). It was an outstanding series and one of the most successful TV reboots. He’s done great work since in many other shows, including “Law and Order UK” and “NCIS.” He has a great role in this new series as Harry King, a conman of sorts, who is incredibly charming (and also very annoying, especially to Camille, the police officer that he becomes involved with). He’s also haunted by his past.  The characters are complex and interesting, but it’s also a lighthearted and fun series, which lots of action. I hope you can watch it! It’s only 6 episodes, but they fly by. The show also has beautiful scenery and music.

Suzanne:   It’s great to see you. I enjoyed the screeners of the show. I loved it.

Jamie:   Oh, bless you. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate that.

Suzanne:   Yeah, it reminds me of [the 80’s TV show] Remington Steele a lot. I was a huge fan of that.

Jamie:   Yeah, so that’s definitely what we’re going for. We’re going for, you know, a police procedural that the whole family can enjoy, that should be fun, with characters that hopefully you’ll wish you were alongside them as they discuss the case and as they argue with each other, and as they get up to all sorts of scrapes that you want to be with them, sort of Lethal Weapon style.

Suzanne:   Right, right. Well, maybe you’ll be the next James Bond.

Jamie:   I’m waiting for the call.

Suzanne:   Oh, well, I’ve been a big fan of yours since Battlestar Galactica. Can you believe that this December is 20 years since it started?Jamie Bamber as (Apollo) on "Battlestar Galactica"

Jamie:   Strangely, I can believe it, because I know it’s true. But yeah, does it feel like 20 years ago? I don’t know what 20 years feels like, but I guess that’s what it feels like. Yeah, it’s a long time. And yeah, it’s weird. I was just with some of my cast mates at a convention in Phoenix. And, you know, we’re so close that we’ve never really been apart. We see each other regularly all the time. So, we’ve never really left the show behind. So, it is odd that was 20 years ago, but we love the milestones, because other people then remember us, and we get to be part of the conversation again, as we were back in the day.

Suzanne:   Oh, that’s great. That’s great. So, how did your involvement in this project come about?

Jamie:   Well, it was the first script I read after the first lockdown. And I know that, because, as soon as I was allowed to, I went to visit my mom, as people all over the world did with parents that they had lost touch with – not lost touch, but hadn’t seen. So, she lives in the south of France, and I happened to be there when another friend of mine from Marseille called me and said, “Look, I’ve just seen your name on a shortlist for a show called Cannes Confidential. Would you like to read the script?” It’s a friend of mine producing; I said, “Of course.” So, I read the script. I immediately fell in love with the nod to The Persuaders, that whole Cary Grant, Roger Moore, in the south of France kind of vibe. And I thought, “Well, if I can shoot a show, where I used to live, basically just down the road from where I used to live, I will do it.” And then, I read the dialogue, and I really liked it. I really enjoyed the tone, which is light and humorous, and the energy which comes from dialogue, rather than from, you know, any kind of sort of big angst or anything like that. So, yeah, I was in. The project been changed an awful lot. I can’t lie; I had some issues with some of the changes, but all the way through, the producers were great with me. They allowed me to sort of retain the essence of the character that I fell in love with, and they gave me some leeway with dialogue and stuff like that to maintain the sort of infuriatingly unflappable charm that Harry has on the surface, and yet also the sort of brooding tragedy that lies sort of somewhere beneath. And that was the attraction for me to play, a complicated man who seems effortlessly uncomplicated.

Suzanne:   It’s only six episodes, but they packed so much into it with the characters. The episode to episode mysteries and the backstories and the action. It didn’t seem like six episodes when I watched it. It seemed like a whole season. That’s a good thing.

Jamie:   Well, I appreciate that, and I’m glad. I’m glad. Well, I hope you enjoyed it. But, we’d love to make more than six episodes. Let’s see.

Suzanne:   Yeah, that’d be great. And I love the music too. I mean, the whole thing was kind of cinematic, but I felt that the music was very much so like those old movies that you’re talking about, but not in a bad way.

Jamie:   Yeah, no, I mean, that’s all done deliberately. I mean, the photographer Philippe Lozano is a true artist. He was very, very exacting. He had a style in mind, and it absolutely had to be filmic. And, you know, we were very much aware that is the element of the show. You have to want to be in Cannes. You have to fall in love with the city. That’s the other character. It’s the fourth character in the show. It’s the primary character in the show. And you’re right, the music is a sort of throwback to sort of, you know, those shows, The Persuaders. They’ve got simple little memes and little melodies for each character in each situation. Harry’s definitely got a theme that whenever he’s around, there’s this little trilling theme that sort of effortlessly jauntily flows its way through. Yeah, I agree with you. I’m very happy with those two elements as well.

Suzanne:   There’s one with a sort of, not haunted house, but [involving a séance] – and it was very Hitchcockian, and I thought the music turned very Hitchcockian.

Jamie:   Yeah, and you know there are references to Hitchcock films all the way through, and movies all the way through. One of Harry’s pseudonyms is Archie Leach, which is Cary Grant’s real name. And there’s a poster for To Catch a Thief in the hotel episode. So, yeah, those are all the influences, and we make no bones about it, that those are the shows we want to sort of evoke from the past. And we want to sort of celebrate that, because when you go to the south of France, when you go to that part of the world, you are stepping in the footsteps of the people that put it on the map over very many years, because, you know, they’re all just little fishing villages that have been transformed into these glamour spots by festivals and movie stars and famous films and TV shows.

Suzanne:   And have you ever played a character anything like this before? I’m trying to think if you have.

Jamie:   No, I don’t think anything quite like this. That’s really what drew me. I love watching old Cary Grant films. I love the effortlessness. He does nothing, and yet he seems to have everything. Roger Moore, I’m a massive admirer of Roger Moore, David Niven. Who else? Pierce Brosnan. You know, these are the people that we’ve exported over the years, and just the chance to play a character that’s even a little bit like that was a great opportunity. I’ve had characters in the past that have had elements of it, but they’re always in a much darker world. I mean, my character in Strike Back had elements of it, but that was a military action show where he was also a killer. You didn’t really get to dwell on that. So, yeah, it was fun just to play someone who seems to be effortless and light hearted, and yet, beneath, you know, there’s more to it than that.

Suzanne:   Was it difficult to walk this fine line you have there between charming and obnoxious?

Jamie:   Well, I think so. I’m not sure that I always did, but, yeah. And yeah, he is infuriating to her. So, the charm has to work on some level for the audience, but it also has to be deeply, deeply irritating to her, because she’s not someone who operates through charm. She operates through interrogation, arrest, investigation. She’s very direct, and Harry’s deflective. He deflects everything that comes anywhere near him. And yeah, you do see him actually, as the series progresses, as, you know, you see elements where he’s dealing with relationships that pre-exists the world he’s now in, and you see that his past implies a very different character than he’s now inhabiting. So, there’s a bit of an actor to him.

Jamie Bamber as Harry King in "Cannes Confidential" on AcornSuzanne:   Yes, and there’s a lot of action in the show. The women do, I would say, probably most of it, but you do a lot of it, too. Did you do any of your own stunts?

Jamie:   Well, I did all my own stunts, because I don’t think I did very many stunts. I think you’re being very generous to say that I was involved at all. I think, you know, maybe I stuck out a foot at one point to apprehend being a criminal, but no, Harry’s superpower are his words and conversation and understanding how to gain people’s confidence and how to push buttons. That’s his thing. The girls, the female police officers in the show, are very much the action heroes.

Suzanne:   You didn’t do a lot of fighting. You did some running. You rode a motorcycle.

Jamie:   I ride a motorcycle, but then also I have my motorcycle taken over and ridden far more aggressively than I would ride. So yeah, no, I enjoyed all that though. I’ve done a lot of action in my time, and it was nice to watch other people enjoy their action. I think Harry can probably handle himself, but that’s not the world he’s choosing to operate in at this particular point. He’s very – he’s got several different personas. This one is not a man of action; it’s a man of charm and taste. And he’s a [unintelligible], and he likes beautiful things. And he dresses well, and he’s not into running around and sweating too much.

Suzanne:   Well, thank you. I really appreciate your talking to me this morning. What time is it? Where you are?

Jamie:   It’s just about a quarter past three in the afternoon. Lovely time of the day. What about where you are?

Suzanne:   It’s a little after 9am.

Jamie:   Oh, morning coffee time.

Suzanne:   Yes, definitely. All right. Thank you. Good luck with it.

Jamie:   Thank you. I appreciate that.

But there are secrets being unraveled: Harry isn’t really an art collector, and regarding Philippe, Camille’s world is about to be turned upside down.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Well, thank you for agreeing to see us this morning. I know how busy you are. I am. So let’s keep this short. Okay, short. It is, uh, as we’ve discussed, my client has agreed to testify against Colin Bedford in exchange for some certain considerations. Actually, I’ve changed my mind about that. Excuse me. Yeah.

I think it sets a terrible precedent for a truly dangerous criminal to be given a walk in exchange for pointing the finger at our co-conspirator. Okay, well, it’s not your job to decide whether she’s dangerous or a criminal. It’s the court’s job. And in court I will present an open and closed case that will put Ms.

Hunter away for a long, long time.

I hope that if we went over everything again, maybe. So maybe we’d find something that we’d missed and all we missed was a night’s sleep. Yeah, thanks. Now they said the academy, that missing person cases go dry after three days. It’s been missing now almost three weeks. Rafe, we’ll find him. Yeah,

that that’s great. I will. Thank you so much. That was the Salem Health Department. They’re letting me reopen sweet bits. That’s wonderful, baby. Oh mama. I’m sorry. It wasn’t news about Abe. I keep saying to myself any day now, his memory will come back. The doctor said it could, and my, my phone will ring and it will be him.

I’ll go wherever he is and bring him home.

Time for breakfast time. Breakfast from my baby. Here we go. Here we go. Bon Appit boat meal again. Well, it’s, it’s heart healthy, and I want you to live a long life. Well, facing this every morning is going to seem like a long life. You know, when we renewed our vows yesterday, I promised to love you through sickness and health, and I’m gonna do my best to make sure that it’s mainly in health.

Wasn’t it nice to say those words again? Yesterday? Would’ve been nicer if we’d had our family there. Oh wow. That means you’re gonna really like the surprise that I have for you. Bacon. Oh, it’s better than bacon. Your son is back in Salem,

Theo. Oh my God. It is so good to see you again. Hi Kate. Oh, honey, I wish it was under circumstances. Me too. Listen, I uh, I heard your speech at Juneteenth. No, no, my, that was my dad’s speech. No, honey, you made that speech your own. He would be so proud of you. Do you think he’s gonna be okay? Of course I do.

You know how strong he is? Right now I know that he is working on getting back to you. I wish that I could be so short.

Theo thought you told me he lived overseas. He did, but he came back home because of your situation. So I’m going to see him. That’s right. You know, I’m thinking if I can see my son, my own flesh and blood, then I can remember him and then I can remember everything.

Like Sam through the hour. So are the days of lives.

You know, your dad and I had known each other for a long time, but I think I really got to know him. When thanks to me, you were in the hospital fighting for your life. No, I think that was, thanks to me being shot. Yeah. But that was my fault, you know? No, he never left your bedside ever, except of course when the doctors would, would make him leave your room.

I watched him go through parent hell, and he never wavered. I think, I think it was his love for you that we’ll do to come back and I, I really believe that that same love is gonna wheel him back to you. I hope you’re right.

I’m sorry, I, I have to go. Someone needs me right now. Okay. Phil, what is it?

Now, Abe, listen to me. I I don’t want you to get your hopes up. You know, you may not remember him right away, and that’s okay. I keep telling you these kinds of cases. Sometimes they just take time. Wait a minute, why isn’t he here? I mean, if he came here to see me, why? Why didn’t he come straight here? Well, because seeing him right away is gonna be stressful for both of you.

He wanted me to break it to you first, and so I did. And I just texted him and he’s on his way.

Eli. Whoa. What’s happening man? Wow. It’s good to see you. Hey, you doing hi? Looking good, man. Thanks. You too. Uh, hey, um, this is, uh, Jada. I don’t think you two, I’m sorry. Detective Hunter, this is, uh, Eli Grant. F b I used to work at Salem pd. Nice to meet you. Same here. Yeah. He’s also Abe’s, uh, son-in-law. Oh.

Figured. I’d come by and see if there’s any, anything I can do to help. Great. Well hopefully a fresh pair of eyes will help us find something that we missed. Yeah. This is everything we got. All right. You guys been pretty thorough? Oh yeah. Yeah. We spent the night going over everything, but, uh, nothing’s jumping out at us.

So, uh, let me walk you through So far. No, no, no. Jada, you go home. You’ve already been here all night. Well, so have you go home, get something to eat and get some rest. That’s an order. Has he always been this wishy That’s one of his best qualities. So, go on. I’ll let you know if something happens here.

Please do. Okay, Eli, it was great meeting you. Hopefully you can bring us some luck. Yeah, have a good one. See ya.

She’s great. She’s great. She’s been through a lobby. She never gives up. She’s not real. Ask that to the team.

What, what with the look? No, no. It’s. I’m, I’m happy for you. Oh, you’re, you’re okay. You’re happy for me? Yeah. She seems like you know. Good girl. Clearly there’s something going on between you two.

I know you’re not gonna deny it.

All I said was that Jada has an incredible work ethic and that she’s been a real asset to the team. And yeah, you know, it’s been intense between us because we have been working so closely together, especially on this case, and I have worked a lot of big cases and as intense as they’ve been. I don’t recall us ever holding Nance when I walked in.

Y’all were holding Nance.

Okay, fine. Mm, fine. All right. Jada and I are, we’re attracted to each other, but we also both know that nothing can come of it.

Jada. Hi. Oh my God, Kate. Oh my goodness. I am so glad to see you alive and back. Well, how do you think I feel, you know, this probably shouldn’t be the first thing I say to you, but you look like you’re feeling a little rough. Well, don’t sugarcoat it. Well, I’m just saying you dragged yourself in here. Did you have a night on the town?

Yeah, a night on the town at the station house going over Abe’s case. Oh yeah, I know. I’m so sorry. Of course. Of course. I’ll tell you. It’s just a nightmare, isn’t it? I’m just praying that he is somewhere alive and well. Yeah, we are all praying that. Ralph and I spent the night going over yet again.

Everything that we have, right. You know, um, I hope you’re a personal relationship isn’t going to be a distraction, you know, working on the case now, why would it be? Well, I mean, I have to admit that I do read Lady Whistle. Lowers column every once in a while. And, uh, recently she reported that you and Ray were seen being affectionate in the office.

So kissing you mean? Yeah. Well I wasn’t being so blunt. I mean, but it’s not like I had put stock in idle gossip anyway. Well, it’s, it’s not idle gossip. It’s, it’s the truth.

Big mama’s packing to go home. And of course she wouldn’t even hear of me trying to help. She’s pretty upset about going home before we found aid. What’d you say? Nothing important. Are you okay? Yeah, yeah. I, uh, was just about to post the job opening at Sweet Bits, and then I got caught in a bag. Kind of dejavu reminded you of Talia?

No, I didn’t need to be reminded. I ran into her yesterday. She’s out on bail. Did she threaten you? No, nothing like that. She was putting up posters asking if anyone had seen Abe, why would she be doing that? She was probably trying to help her case so that the DA will go easy on her. Wait, but you said that Talia, let me handle this.

My client and Colin Bedford are not co-conspirators. Yes, Talia committed some crimes at his instigation, which means that he is responsible for everything Talia did at his behest. But let’s not forget that on his own, he held a gun to Chanel Dupre’s, head to coerce Paulina Price to jump off a five story building.

Do you really think a guy like that should walk? Because without my client’s testimony, without your client’s testimony, I still have a rock solid case against Bedford. Ms. Hunter’s own sister, a Salem police officer is an eyewitness to what happened on that roof, and Paulina Price will testify to his attack against Mayor Carver, which will give me enough to lock your boyfriend up for a very long time.

He’s not my boyfriend. Not anymore. Well, that’s probably for the best I’ve heard. It’s hard to keep a relationship when each of you are serving long sentences in different correctional facilities. Oh, watch it more. I’ve got your confession to your own sister about you drugging those biscuits. And trashing Paulina Price’s office, which means I can use your own words to prove to the judge and jury that you are guilty as hell.

Okay? There is no need to pile on Melinda. Oh, am I supposed to be polite to her? I am a fit and healthy woman. And your drugs that you put in those biscuits sent me to the emergency room. Heaving my guts out all night long. It could have killed a child, a senior, anyone with a compromised immune system. Did you even think about that?

Did you? Okay. Did you think about the fact that she actually saved Chanel and Paulina’s life and nearly died in the process? You would’ve never been on that roof in the first place if it wasn’t for your client. Look, I don’t take my job lightly, and I’ve gone over and over the evidence. And there is nothing there that indicates any kind of leniency.

Okay, here’s something new.

I got Jack. There you go. Okay. I’m a little nervous. I, I just hope I, I, I hope I recognize him. If I don’t, I, I don’t know how that make him feel. Oh God. I told him about your condition. He’ll understand. You seem a little nervous. Maybe just a little. Are you and Theo getting along? Well, to be honest, we don’t really know each other that well.

I’ll get it.

Well, here he is, your son, Philo. Hello Pops.

I also think that Toya is working some angle trying to convince everyone that all the things she did were Colin’s fault. Is that what she said? No. No. She apologized and tried to take responsibility for what she did. So tell me this, are you thinking of forgiving her?

Oh, I’ll get it. Hmm.

Hey y’all. Oh, I’m so glad you’re here, honey. Hey, I came as soon as I got your text. What’s up? Oh, mama Price is uh, leaving for Florida this morning and she wouldn’t leave us saying goodbye to you. What she actually said was, I have to see that handsome face of his. One more time.

Is this my son? Yes it is. It’s uh, good to see you again, pops. Thank you for coming. No problem, sir. Uh, you really don’t remember me? I am, I’m sorry. I, I don’t, well just give it time. You two just need to get to know each other again. Theo, sit down.

Uh, yes. Would you, uh, like some coffee? Uh, no, I’m good. Oh.

Uh, uh, so, uh, how was your flight? Uh, it was good. Long. Yeah? Yeah. So, uh, where, where are you living now? Uh, south America, South Africa. I, uh, sorry, uh, a major jet lag. I had a layover in Brazil. I got mixed up. You, you had a stop over in Brazil on a flight from South Africa. That’s, uh, Boy, that’s way out of the way.

I, uh, got a deal. Cheap flights. Huh? Must have had it whole day. You know, you know what aid You are always so good at geography. You know me. I get lost on my way to the hospital sometimes. Oh, pops. Would you mind if I had a talk with Paulina out in the corridor? Why I, I don’t think that’s necessary. Paulina, right, please.

Yes. Excuse us. Let’s talk.

You didn’t tell me that The guy you were talking about was the mayor. What has she been with? Amnesia. He’s no fool. I mean, he’s not only good at geography, but he knows damn well there’s something going on. Because like an idiot. You said that you were from South America. I gave you Theo’s background. I didn’t have time to read all that stuff you sent and, and I, I didn’t expect to get grilled or, or that or that.

What? That he’s a good guy who needs help, needs his real family. I’m sorry, I can’t do this. You mean nothing can come of it? She’s single, right? She is. Okay. Well so are you. What’s the problem? Good jobs. Okay. Look, I know from experience that two cops getting together isn’t easy, but Lonnie and I proved that it’s possible.

You and Lonnie were partners. I’m Jade’s boss. Okay. And there are now new regulations in place. Fraternization with a subordinate is now grounds for dismissal. Yeah. Forgot about those new regulations. Mm-hmm. That sucks, man. Yeah. Uhhuh. And I know you’re looking at me right now and you’re thinking, oh man, this guy.

He’s got some real bad luck when it comes to women. Oh no. Yeah, I was not thinking that bad. You were. Cause I saw you. All right. You were and you’d be right. Yeah. Well, I am happy for race, happy for you. Well, there’s nothing to be happy about. I mean, the only reason he kissed me was because he was high on those tainted biscuits.

Well, whatever the reason, I don’t know. It seems like when you talk about him, there is a little something there. Okay. Maybe. Yeah. But I mean, we work together and, and plus the city council has all these guidelines. Oh, screw the guidelines. Are you kidding me? You know, I was just telling Eric and Sloan, life is short.

You know, we don’t wanna waste what little time we have. You’re just waiting. You’re just getting older, right? I mean, if you’re interested, you should go for it.

What is that? In a second? Talia, do you take responsibility for drugging those biscuits? Yes, I do. And do you also take responsibility for breaking into and vandalizing MS Price’s office? Yes, I do. You’re just making my case for me. Talia, are you also currently under the care of a psychiatrist? Yes. Um, Dr.

Melina Evans. This is a signed affidavit by Dr. Evans detailing the nature of the relationship between Talia and Colin, and I truly believe this changes everything.

The worst thing about being in a abusive relationship is the shame that we feel. I. A man treats us badly and somehow we still believe it’s our fault.

Years later, we think we’re past it and comes back like malaria. He not only makes us feel unworthy of his love, but of anyone else’s, you keep saying. We and us.

My ex-husband, Mr. Trask, he was a very, um,

shall we say, controlling man. I was so afraid of him. So cow. That I denied the existence of my own daughter. I kept, kept her a secret, um, from him, from the world.

Uh, sometimes I still wonder how I found the strength to break away from him.

I am so sorry. I I’m so sorry that you both have had to suffer like that.

So it’s, it’s clear though, Melinda, that you understand what Talia’s been through, and I, I know that that was really painful for you to share.

What do you think this means for her case?

You are back already. Your mom would not let me drive to the airport. So we got our taxi. And don’t worry, I slept a driver, a 21. Big mama wasn’t looking that way. He’d get more than Bible verses for a tip. Good for you. So Theo, you, you had breakfast, what would you like? No, nothing for me. Thanks. It was great to see your mom again, but I’m afraid I’ve gotta get going.

I’m gonna head down to the police station. I’ll find my dad.

So you really think I should go forward with Rae? Okay. Full disclosure, Ray and I have, uh, a little bit of history. We actually dated for a while. It was years ago. And, uh, even though I had issues with a lot of things that he did, I will say he’s one of that rare breed, a good man. But the work thing don’t, you can just make the work thing work out, you know?

I mean, I would suggest no more p d a in the office, but when you and Rave are in the privacy of your own home, Pass off the city council or anyone else’s business. Right.

Okay. Please. Those are all the witness statements. Like Jada said, maybe a fresh pair of eyes see something we missed. Speaking of eyes, you could barely keep yours open. Why don’t you take your own advice, go home, get something to eat, take a shower and get some rest. I’ll call you if I need anything. I’m actually too tired to argue with you.

That’s cuz you know I’m right. Mm-hmm. Right’s. Good to see you, bro. See you too. I’ll be back this afternoon. Don’t set an alarm. Mm.

You can’t back out on me now. You agreed to do this. Plus I paid you good money. This is a great challenge for an actor. I’m an actor, not a con man. I’m not asking you to con anybody. And wait a minute. Didn’t your grandmother get help when she was in the hospital? Here we go. Yeah, that’s right. Here we go.

Your grandmother had no health insurance, but thanks to me. She got the help that she needed. And what did it cost her? Nothing. Right? Nothing because I doctored her intake form so she could get the help she needed. So you owe me. Jerry, big time. You have been accepted into the family since you’re feeling so sorry for Pops.

I only wanted you to act like his son to help him with his recovery, but it’s not gonna help him. I mean, I can see that it, it’s only confusing him. Listen to me, Jerry. I’m a nurse and I’m his wife, and I know best. You can’t walk away from this besides what would happen to your career if this came out.

Okay, but what if I do? If he starts asking me about his life or fine, oh my God, you’re an actor. Just improvise. Improvise. Yeah. Right, right, right. Just make some stuff up, like talk to him. Your, your guys. Do guy talk sports or something? I don’t know.

Hello? This king? Yes, this is she. This is Agent Eli Gran the fbi. I’m investigating the disappearance of Abe Carver. I need you to come down to the police station right away. Oh, I, I can’t, my cat is sick and I can’t leave him. Okay, then I’ll, I’ll come to you. No, no, no, no. That’s not necessary. I’ll just have a neighbor come over.

Mm-hmm. I’ll see you soon.

Look, um, I, I need you to go in there and, and, and just be with him. I, I got some place I gotta go. Hey, look, you’ve spent an hour and I, I won’t take that long. Um, I’ll give you an extra hundred. Look, I, I, I, I need you to stay with him and I gotta go, alright? Okay. Okay. See and cash. Remember, I,

I’m back pops. What were you talking about out there? Where’s, where’s, where’s Paulina? What’s going on here?

Hey. Hey. Hello. Hey. Oh, how’s Shawn? Uh, he’s not doing great. He’s still reeling after everything that happened in Greece. Oh, well that’s understandable. Yeah. On top of that, he’s feeling pretty guilty about not being able to help find Abe. Oh, you know what? Tell him not to worry. Eli’s here. We got it covered, but, uh, is there anything I can do for you?

Uh, actually I’m here to see Jada. I have news about Talia’s case. I will file my recommendation with the court community service, and, uh, probation and continuing to see Dr. Evans.

Thank you so much. I never expected this to happen. If there’s anything I can do, You can keep going to therapy and work on your self-worth. Get to a place where you can feel that you deserve to be treated with kindness and respect so that what happened with you and Colin Bedford will not happen again.

So we were talking about Talia before Theo showed up. Are you thinking of forgiving her hearing Talia talk about Colin. It wasn’t just the things he said or did, it was more about the way he manipulated her. He played on her insecurities, took advantage of the way she felt about him to get her to do things that she didn’t really wanna do.

Emotional abuse, like what Ray did to me, Colin’s father did to me. Yeah, all too similar. So you think Charlie was a victim in all this? She loved Colin and she was afraid that she’d lose him if she didn’t do what he. Told her to do. And as, as much as I hate what she put you through, put us all through, she’s in pain, real pain, and it’s going to take her a long time to get over it.

What, you didn’t answer me, what did you have to talk to her about? Uh, okay. Okay. Uh, Paulina got a call. She, uh, had to run an errand. You still didn’t answer my question. What did you and Paulina have to talk about alone? Um, uh, you want the truth? Um, I asked her if my showing up here. Upset. You see? I mean, I mean, yeah.

It, it, it’s, it’s weird. I don’t know how to talk to you when you don’t, when when? I don’t remember you. Yeah. I’m sorry. It, it is weird. I’m sorry. Hey, it’s, it’s not your fault, so I guess we just gotta try to get to know each other again. It’s okay if I sit. Yeah, of course. Of course. Please do.

So, uh, how about those white socks?

Oh, excuse me, aren’t you Abe Carver son? Theo? Yeah, I am. Do I know you? No, no. I, I was one of your father’s nurses. I, I was there, uh, the day your stepmother was trying to jog his memory. Oh, he’s such a wonderful man. What a terrible thing to happen to him. Yeah, I was. Yeah. So why are you here? Oh, uh, uh, I received a call, uh, from the fbi, uh, agent grant to come down.

Yeah. Um, I’m actually here to see him too. Really? Oh, but you weren’t even here when your father went missing? No, not as a witness. Eli is my sister’s husband and my dad’s son-in-law, my friend. I’m here to help him and we’re not gonna stop until we find my dad.

You seem a little nervous. Yeah. You know, I just don’t know why they called me down here. I mean, I told the police everything I know. So. Ms. King? Yes, that’s right. Yoo. I need to speak to Ms. King. Yeah, that’s okay. I’ll wait this way. Nice to be.

Thank you Ms. King for coming in. You gotta have a seat right here. Okay.

Thank you. You’re welcome. I’ll be with you in just a second.

You know, as, as I was telling, uh, Abe carver’s son outside, I’ve, I’ve already told the police everything.

Now you can tell me everything, you know. I was going over your statement about the day Abe Carver went missing. You were on duty, right? Well, uh, yes. Yes, I was. Uh, but as I told the police, I, I didn’t see anything. Well, you, you couldn’t have, did you, excuse me, because you left work early hours before the end of your shift, and I’d like to know why

you, okay.

Just a little bit overwhelmed. I still can’t believe I’m not going to prison. Seriously. Thank you so much Ms. Brady. No. Well, not always, but sometimes the prosecution and the defense work together to get it right. Um, I just went to the station to tell your sister the good news, but she’d already gone home.

Well, should I call her? I, I think Rafe was going over there to tell her

Jayna open up. I got some good news

after all the terrible things that Colin Bedford did. He still denies taking Abe out of the hospital. Yeah. And the police say they’re sure that he didn’t do it, but we both know that Eli won’t give up until he finds Abe and he makes sure that whoever did take him pays. Um, I, I was sick that day, so I went home early.

Like your cat? Huh? What? When we spoke on the phone, you said that your cat was sick. Oh, right. That’s right. He has ringworm. Aw. What was wrong with you that day? The day that Abe car went missing? I, uh, well, I was feeling like I was getting the flu. I had a slight fever. Uh, and you know, I can’t be around patients.

I. Like that. So, you know, you didn’t mention that in your statement. Oh, well, I, I didn’t think it was important. No, it’s not for you to decide what’s important and what’s not, which is why you’re gonna tell me everything that happened on that day. And this time you’re not gonna leave anything out.

I’m sorry. I’ll be right back.

Kitchen grant.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Look, we bested Maggie in a business deal and now she’s pissed off. Why should we care? Because we care about Maggie. She’s not just a competition. No, and I understand that, but I mean, it’s not like Maggie getting even is like Uncle Vic getting even. I mean really Brady, what the hell is she gonna do? Like cut off our lemon bars?

It’s all right. You’re gonna laugh this one off. Really? Look, we made a better deal for Kassoff than Titan did, and now Maggie is gonna have to learn to live with that.

So you’re offering me a job at Titan to be my second in command. Alex’s old job. That’s right. I’d like you to start right away. What would Victor think about having a demara on the inside track at his company? A Damara was Once Titan’s, c e o Victor hired you himself, he also fired me,

but not for incompetence. Chad, you are a brilliant businessman. I know that you will be an enormous asset to Titan. Besides, I am in charge now, so Victor will defer this matter to me. And as far as this cu to me feud if Brady and Alex can work for your family’s company. Why can’t you work for mine?

Hey. Oh, sorry. You’re doing your yoga. No, no, no. I can wait. Please come in.

Something’s wrong. Your checkup today. Is it the baby? No, no, no. Everything is fine. It’s just I got home and I got this voicemail. Sarah. Hey, uh, it’s body carus. The reason I’m calling you is that we need to talk. Look, uh, the thing is, as hard as I’m trying, I. I don’t know if I can keep your secret.

I’m screwed. No, no, no, no. I’m so sorry. No, hold on. Just, just calm down. Look, um, it doesn’t sound like Bonnie told Sandra or anything. Yeah. Right. So maybe call her back and, and talk her down. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that’s, That’s a good idea. I’m gonna, I’m gonna, I’m gonna do that.

Hello? Sarah. Sarah, you sound awful. I know. It’s just No, but just a bad cold, I guess. You got my message? Yeah. I could. Please tell me that you didn’t tell Xander about the baby. No, I didn’t. I s I swear. Okay. That’s great. Thank God. But I did tell one person. You did. Who? Who did you tell Bonnie? It was just Justin.

Okay. You can spare a couple of minutes. Go on, pull her, pull up her chair and tells everything that’s going on with you. No, there’s really nothing new to report. Yeah. Uh, nothing really. I got nothing. Not one thing. Yeah. Are you, uh, sure about that? Why wouldn’t I be sure? I don’t know. You just seem like you’re acting a little bit nervous.

It’s not like you.

Okay. Look, there is something and you have every right to know what it is.

Like sand through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

You told Xander’s cousin that I’m having Xander’s baby. Oh man, he’s my husband. What was I supposed to do? You promised that you wouldn’t tell anyone. Bonnie, will you just listen? I gave Justin a dollar as a retainer before I opened my mouth. Right? So if he Blas, he’s gonna violate that attorney client thingy.

All right? And Justin would never do that.

You need an antihistamine for that cold? No, I’m fine. Justin, skinny me some chicken doodle soup. Listen, everything is gonna be okay. All right. Zander is very busy right now, and it’s not like Justin is gonna be seeing him. All right. Justin’s not gonna say anything. They’re not gonna be hanging out. Zander is busy.

Like I said, he is very, very busy. What do you mean? Very busy? Like, like with work? Well, he’s very busy with, with his new girlfriend. Look, you might as well know he’s Porking Chloe Lane.

Well, don’t leave us hanging. Justin, what’s the big news? This may come as a surprise. This is not my secret to tell, and I only know that Sarah’s pregnant because I ran into her in Chicago and she made me swear. Swear not to tell anyone, please. Justin, are you gonna tell Sandra,

I know you gave Sarah your word, but I didn’t. But you’re my wife and I love you so. I will not tell Zach. What is it? What is it that I have a right to know that Alex has gone to work for Basic Black. Ah, wait, that’s your big news. Oh, so Brady gave Alex my old job. You know, he practically begged Chloe to go back and work for him, but she told him that she’d rather to keep working for me at the Spectator.

Meant the world to me. So you are living together and working together? Yeah, that’s right. And that’s the way we like, you know, Maggie tried to get me to go back and work at Titan and I said, no dies. Well, no, I’m curious. I wonder if she’s gonna get to take Alex’s place.

I’m flattered, uh, about the offer, Maggie, but I already have a job at S J P R working for me. Chad is my most valuable employee, and Titan is one of s j’s most lucrative clients. So you do would still be working together? One of Chad’s responsibilities would be acting as liaison to S J P R like Alex did when he had the job.

And uh, as far as the Commute, Titan’s headquarters is right down the street. Right. Um, I actually just, uh, told Doug and Julie that the kids and I are gonna be moving out. Really? Oh, well, where are you moving? Well, we don’t know yet. We, yeah, we, Chad and I are moving in together. Hmm.

I would not underestimate Maggie if I were you. Alex, she’s been my sponsor for years, and I’ll tell you what, she is as tough as she has to be. Well, she’s definitely no pushover, but she sure as hell has no idea how to run a business. Oh, hey Alex. I, uh, I’m glad you’re here. I actually have your employment contract here saved me from sending you a pdf.

If you could just, uh, read it, sign it, send it back to me, that’d be great. I will do that right now. Okay. And I have another matter to discuss with you. Uh, uh uh, this looks good to me. Uh, that was pretty. There you go. Pretty set pretty fast. Did you read all of the fine print? Yeah. I’m a speed reader, not to mention I trust you guys.

Got leaving Titan behind me, going to work for my cousin who would never screw me over. It’s the smartest move I’ve made in a long time. Where you going? Well, it seems like you two needed to talk.

There you go. So what is this other matter? Is it a tamira business? Uh, one Damira in particular, Kristen.

Well, congratulations on taking that big step. I hope you find the perfect place to start your life together. Thank you Maggie. It’s gonna be so wonderful for Thomas and Charlotte. I know they’re quite crazy about you, Stephanie. Ah, I think it was both ways. I love them very much and they’re very lucky to have a wonderful father and now to have a wonderful you and their lives.

I’m the lucky one. Well, look, I really should get going. Um, just one thing, Stephanie, I hope you will support Chad if he decides to accept my offer. Yes, I will. Yeah. I can’t say I’m not interested. I, I, I just need some time to think about it. I understand. But don’t take too long. Uh, I am, I am just ready to go with my plans for Titan and fill in that position is crucial.

Care to tell me what your plans are. Okay. Um, EJ and the others, they’re so sure. I don’t know what I’m doing. I. So I am gonna take advantage of that. So Demer Enterprises is gonna get a run for its money. Congratulations you two again, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Whoa. I, uh, I haven’t seen that side of Maggie before. Yeah, me neither. What are you thinking? I, I don’t know. I mean, her offering me the number two PO position. I mean, I didn’t see that coming. I assume that this is about, My daughter. Yes it is. So you had asked me to make sure that the family court ruling giving you custody of Rachel was ironclad.

Yes. So I went over the ruling in detail and there is absolutely no wiggle room for Kristen. You are legally the sole custodial parent. But let me guess. Kristen wants to dispute the ruling. Oh, had to guess. Oh, just had a no-brainer there. Have you heard from her legal team at all? I have not, which I think is really strange.

And I’m guessing you haven’t either. Nobel not a word. Well, that begs the question then. Where is Kristen Demira and what the hell is she up to?

Xander and Chloe. How can that be? She hates him. Not anymore. She’s living with the dude.

Wow. Okay. Um, I guess he really has moved on only because he doesn’t think he has a snowballs chance in hell in getting back with you. Now, if he knew you were carrying his child, I bet he’d dropped Chloe Lane like a hot rock. So maybe you should reconsider and tell him about the baby.

I have no idea who Maggie will hire to replace. I’m not art of her inner circle. All right, well, I’m pretty sure that inner circle is just big enough for two, her and Uncle Victor. Hmm, probably. Well, if you excuse me, I have a sick wife who’s at home and she’s in desperate need some chicken soup. I’m concerned that Bonnie might be suffering from a little bit more than a head cold.

Wow. Why do you say that? It’s just that the last time I saw him, she’s acting, seem really nervous. I, I dunno it as if she knew something that she didn’t want me to find out.

You’ve been kind of quiet since Maggie blew outta here. What can I say? She’s a tough act to follow. Well, I’d like to know, uh, I’d like to know how you feel about the job offer. Well, I think you have to consider taking it. I mean, it’s a, it’s a very important position, but,

well, he’d be taking Alex’s job, a job that he loved.

Hey, what up, sunny Boy? How’s the hubby and my niece? Good, good. Now the new gig is going great. I actually just signed a contract today. No, I don’t have any problem working for the Demaris. And hey, I tried to stay a Titan, but Uncle Vick’s power mad wife had other ideas. I, I know Maggie tried to get me my job back, but I also know that it would just be a matter of time before she had some other reason to fire me again.

And who the hell needs that?

Okay. Just know that Maggie and I have parted company and I couldn’t be happier.

Well, you’re right. Radio silence has never been Kristen’s style. Mm-hmm. Look at how she reacted when I tried giving her limited visitation rights to sued for full custody. I think she’s just trying to make a sweat. I don’t know. You know her better than I do. Well, I, I mean, she’s capable of anything. She could be doing anything.

I, but at least she’s not gonna go after Chloe this time. How do you know that? You just said she’s capable of anything. No. Be the only reason Chloe was a target before was because Kristen thought Chloe would end up raising Rachel. All right. And that’s, that’s obviously off the table now. Why are you. You haven’t heard, Chloe is living with Xander now.

What is she out of her mind? I don’t know what Bonnie could possibly be hiding from you, Xander. I really don’t. I’m sure she was just. Being Bonnie, you know her now. If you excuse me, I really need to place my order. Sure. Its great seeing you, Justin. Take care. Good seeing you. You too. I seeing you too.

Is it just me or does it see my Justin knows whatever it is that Bonnie knows. I don’t know, but he does seem uncomfortable. But baby, he’s just anxious to get home to his sick wife. No. All right. Yeah, maybe that’s it. So Sarah, what do you say? Would it be so bad to tell Xander he’s gonna be a daddy? I don’t want him back in my life bar.

So you and Justin are just gonna have to keep it to yourself. So you hear me? Yeah. Yeah, I hear you. Our lips are sealed, so, oh, listen, I gotta get off the phone. I’m gonna have another coughing fit. Goodbye. And good luck to you. Bye Bonnie.

So Bonnie told Justin everything I. Pretty much. And Xander is dating Chloe now.

You okay? Yeah. Why wouldn’t I be? I mean, Zander and I are divorced and that’s her what I said to Bonnie. I want that creep outta my life. So, He can date whoever he wants. Dear it,

so can I.

I can’t believe Chloe is seeing Xander Cook. You’re not joking with me. No. No. You think I would joke about something like that? I mean, she just hasn’t said anything to me about this. Yeah, cuz she knew that you would go through the roof when you heard that. Yeah. Damn. Straight. I would. Xander shot mom and you and he made Sarah and Eric believe that Rachel was there, baby.

And that your baby with Kristen had died. Yes. And then he went, all I know understand blew up Eric and Nicole’s wedding. I know Bell. I didn’t he leave Chloe and Mexico with some drug lawyer Bell? He did. He did all that stuff and I’m aware of it. I mean, wow. Kristen just must have pushed Chloe way too far.

Yeah. Chloe must just see something in Xander that. We don’t.

Thank you. Well, I could certainly use another weed drown. How about you? Ah, yeah. A glass of wine sounds really nice. Wine, eh? That sounds even better. Well, you just relax and I’ll turn bar. How about that? Yeah, thank you. I just hand you this. Oh, thanks. You know, I still can’t go over how sketchy Justin was acting tonight.

Yeah, I know you didn’t stop talking about it the entire way home. Sorry. Should I take that to mean that you are sick of me banging on about my family and they’re strange behaviors? No, I like you talking about your family. It lets me get to know the real you and that’s something you want to know the real me?

Yeah, it is.

Can I ask you a question? Are you sure that you want sleep alone tonight?

No. Oh, Sarah, no. No, no, no. Wait, what’s the problem? It’s not like this hasn’t happened before. I know, but. This is different.

It’s me. Okay. Wow. You’re afraid to see me without any clothes on. What? Are you kidding me? Hey, you were the most beautiful pregnant lady that ever was. Well then, what’s the problem? I saw your face when you found out about Xander and Chloe. I don’t care about that. I was, I was just surprised. I thought that Chloe had better taste as all that.

Hey, come on, it’s me. You were nuts about the guy. And look, I haven’t exactly made it a secret that I want another chance with you. Why are you pushing me away? I want a real chance, not some. Rebound sex, and that’s what that would be.

You know that don’t you?

Looks like I got here just in time. Oh honey. You go and you brought me my chicken noodle, so of course guaranteed to make you feel better. Here you go. Thank you, honey. Oh, this is gonna fix me right up. I can tell. Mm. I ran into Chloe and Xander at the pub. Oh, please. Oh, please tell me you didn’t spill it about Sarah and the baby.

Only because I gave you my word. Oh, thank God. I just got off the phone with Sarah and she’s so mad at me for telling you. She made me swear that we would not tell Xander about the baby. Like I said, I do not feel good about this. Xander is far from a perfect human being, but he did love Sarah. Oh my God, it’s his baby that she’s carrying.

Believe me, I hear you. And I tried. I tried to convince Sarah to come clean with him. I tried a lot, but she won’t budge you and I have no choice but to do as she says. Oh, I wish I didn’t know about this. I know what you mean. I just hope Sarah’s secret doesn’t blow up in our faces.

You were in the kitchen for quite a while. Yeah, I was, uh, I was loading the dishwasher.

I know you’re upset with me.

Um, I just, uh, I just don’t understand why Alex’s, uh, feelings should factor into whether or not I take the job. It’s just. He tried really hard to make it work with Maggie, and she fired him without even giving him a chance. And, but how was that my problem? Or yours? I mean, he, he’s a, he’s a big boy. He can handle himself.

Uh, you, you don’t always have to worry about him. I don’t always worry about him. Okay. I just meant that, you know, he landed on his feet. He got a good job at Basic Black. I don’t understand what the problem is. I hate the optics. Chad, first you take Alex’s girl. Next you might end up with his job. No, no, no.

I didn’t. I didn’t. I didn’t take his girl. You’re your own woman, and unless I’m mistaken, you made your own decision about who you wanted to be with. True.

It’s just I’m, I don’t know. I still feel weird about this offer, and it’s not only because of Alex. Okay, then what else? It’s Maggie. It’s like she’s completely changed since Victor made her the c e o. How so? She fired Alex because he lost that Kassoff deal, but it wasn’t his fault. Kassoff had second thoughts.

It happens. Who’s to say that she won’t do the same thing to you?

I would hate to see her kick you out on that fine ass of yours.

Well then I guess, uh, I guess it’s fine. I asked is just gonna have to be better at staying on her good side than he was. Right. Well, I don’t have to make a decision right now. It’s not what Maggie said. Well, Maggie, uh, Maggie’s gonna have to wait. That’s all. And, and honestly, right now, I’d rather. I’d rather not be, uh, talking about Maggie or, um, or work at all for that matter.

I’d rather be looking at possible dream houses for you, me and the kids, he’s okay. Yeah, yeah. Well, sounds good and lucky for real good PR lady never leaves her house with our laptop.

Oh, hello, Alex. Hi, Maggie. I thought you should know that I found someone to take your spot at Titan. Mm, really? Really? I didn’t want you to read about it in a spectator. How decent of decent w. You know what, Alex, you’d get along a whole lot better in this world if you didn’t have that chip on your shoulder.

No, you fired me. All right, so I don’t need all the self-help bull. Mm mm Nope. Nope. Not doing that. Aren’t you gonna ask me who I found? Well, congratulations on finding your ideal number two. Hopefully now we can both move on with our lives. It’s Chad.

Good for him. I thought he was working for Stephanie. Oh, he is. He is. But uh, he’s gonna take some time to think about my offer, but I think he’ll accept it. He and Stephanie will see enough of each other now that they have decided to move in together. I’ll see you back at the house,

not if I don’t see you first.

Wow. Xander and Chloe are living together. I just, oh, I’m so sorry, Brady. I know how much you love Chloe.

Yeah, well there’s not much I can do about it, so it’s pretty much over. I don’t wanna dwell on it. Okay. Okay, I get that. I understand. Dwell on you. Let’s dwell on you, sis. Tell me how you’re doing not great. Sean. Is he still drinking? Well, yeah, I mean, he’s either staring off into space or sleeping one off.

I can’t tell he he needs help. Yeah, I know, but he doesn’t see it that way. Especially after Victor laid into him. Yeah. I love my granddad, but I’ll tell you what he can, he can really make a bad situation worse sometimes. Mm-hmm. Do you want me to talk to Sean? You know, I’ve been where he is. I know. Thank you for offering and I might take you up on that.

Okay. Not now though. Well, right now I’m trying to get him to make an appointment with mom. He just says he’s not ready. You know, he’s just swimming in guilt and, and he jinks his dad’s in a coma because of him. But the fact that he was saving his mother’s life when he shot Bo, that doesn’t even register.

Yeah. I’m so sorry about that. Ugh. All right, I gotta go. Okay. Um, let me know if you hear consistent. I will. And, um, listen, Brady, what I know. That you think things are over between you and Chloe. All right. But I really think that you should try and hang on. She is gonna see Xander for who he really is, cuz everybody does.

Okay. Bye. Okay, thank you.

Came on too strong, didn’t I? No, I, I just. I thought I was ready to move on with my life, but I don’t think that’s possible. Not quite yet anyway. Right. You have a new place, new job, but you’re still not over. Brady.

Trust me. I want to be over him, but I’m just not yet. And. Sandra, I don’t, I don’t wanna lead you on. No, I understand. I mean, if I’m being dead honest with myself, I am still missing Sarah. Aren’t we a fine, fair?

So what do we do in the meantime? Keep getting to know each other. Take our time. I like the sound of that. Maybe there’s something on telly. Ah, okay. Just no love stories. No, definitely not. How about an action adventure with a creepy villain who gets what’s coming to him in the end? That kinda hits a little close to home for me, so, okay.

Fair enough. Um, the Marx Brothers, perfect.

You are right. I was using you to forget my problems and I am. I am so sorry cuz that’s the last thing I wanna do. Can I point out though that most guys, including me, wouldn’t mind being used in that particular way, but with you, I, I want it to mean something. It’s okay.

Do you know how much I wish I was over Xander? You know how much I wish that too.

I hate that what he does with his life still gets to me. I know. But look, all you know is that Xander and Chloe are just living together. Doesn’t mean they’re sleeping with one another. And who cares what Bonnie thinks? I mean, her word is not exactly gospel. Sandra isn’t the kind of guy that lives with somebody that he isn’t sleeping with.

He.

All right, I’m gonna go because we are both on duty early tomorrow.

Good night. Good night. Hey, um, the second you get over Xander, you know where to find me.

Here, lemme get you some more. Mm-hmm. I felt better already.

And notice tonight that Xander and Chloe seemed happy together. Yeah. Huh. Maybe she’ll be a good influence on him. Like you were for me. I wonder if Brady knows about them. Poor guy.

Words.

You wishing you.

Chloe, have I told you recently how much I adore?

See your lascivious. That’s even better than

and also,

Words can’t describe this

feeling inside. Every time

you.

I,

I.

One day,

one moment will change my life.

I.

See how things.

Open your eyes.

I.

Open.
