Liam: Man, our daughter never ceases to amaze me.

Steffy: Yeah, I know. Right when I told her mommy was going to italy, she immediately wanted to learn italian.

Liam: I know. Yeah, I gotta say, that app is pretty incredible just because of the way that it, like, with the videos and the games and stuff. It makes it fun. Even I’ve picked up a few phrases, I think.

Steffy: Oh, really?

Liam: Yeah. Uh wait, wait.

[ Speaking italian ]

Steffy: Oh, okay.

Liam: Right? Yeah.

Steffy: Translation please?

Liam: Oh, uh, I love our little girl so much.

Steffy: Aw, [Indistinct].

Liam: Big day tomorrow.

Steffy: Yeah, everyone’s flying off to roma for hope for the future’s big preview and the big press event. You know what that means?

Liam: Yeah. Yeah. Your brother and my wife are gonna be inseparable.

Steffy: How are you doing?

Liam: I’m all right. Wish I could say, carefree, but not so much.

Deacon: Sweetheart, thank you so much for making time to see your old man before you go jetting off. You must be so excited.

Hope: I am. I can’t wait.

Deacon: Yeah.

Hope: We’ve been working so hard on this. Oh, and um, guess who will be joining us now?

Deacon: Oh, your mother?

Hope: How did you know that?

Deacon: What, are you kidding me? You think she wouldn’t be there to support you?

[ Hope chuckling ]

Deacon: So, uh, what about thomas? Is he still going?

Hope: Yes, of course, he is. Dad, he’s the lead designer of hope for the future.

Deacon: I can only imagine how liam feels about that.

Rj: You’re all packed for the big day tomorrow, right?

Ridge: Me? I haven’t even started.

Eric: Yeah, your father always waits ’til the last minute.

Ridge: I like travel light. What can I tell you?

Rj: Hey, you know, I do the same thing. It makes for more of an adventure. But, uh, it’s not saying that this is that by any means, there’s a lot at stake, right?

Ridge: Yeah. But, uh, I think hope and her line are gonna do just great.

Rj: Yeah. You know, mom says the same thing. She really, really is hope’s biggest cheerleader.

Ridge: And she’s gonna be there to see it all.

Rj: Who, mom?

Ridge: Yeah. She– she told you she was coming, right?

Rj: Oh, yeah. She might have mentioned it maybe like two dozen times.

[ Eric laughing ]

Eric: Well, your mother and father together in rome, one of the most romantic cities in the world. Wonder what they’re gonna do with their spare time.

Brooke: Si. Yes, I am so proud of hope. Her line is just, uh, well, you’ll see for yourself. Just prepare to be wowed. Yes. Ridge and I will be in italy together. Uh, gabrielle. I have to go. Somebody just walked in and I have to deal with them. Okay. [ Speaking italian ]

Taylor: You know, I’ve been thinking. And um, I still believe that you are not transparent when it came to ridge, but I reacted poorly. Besides that, I– I really was trying to support you in moving on with your life.

Brooke: So, that you could try to move on with ridge.

Ridge: Do I need to remind you guys that this is a business trip?

Rj: Sure seems like you’re packing in a lot in a really short amount of time.

Eric: And that doesn’t mean that you and brooke can’t enjoy a little time together by yourselves in your spare time.

Ridge: Oh, wow. You are about as subtle as a sledgehammer.

[ Eric laughing ] Don’t get any ideas. You or you.

Rj: Me? What did I say? What did I say?

Ridge: Brooke is going because she is an essential part of this company. Anything else?

Eric: Anything else? Anything more than that would make this trip even more memorable, actually, in more ways than one.

Brooke: Okay. I really don’t have time for this. I’m trying to prepare for my trip tomorrow.

Taylor: Your big trip, your– your trip to rome with ridge.

Steffy: Liam, I understand why you feel that way. And you know, I have my concerns too, but this isn’t like san francisco. Hope and thomas aren’t gonna be alone together.

Liam: True.

Steffy: They’re gonna be crazy busy the whole time. But you’re still worried?

Liam: I mean, not about hope. Like I– I know she loves me.

Steffy: Yeah, so do I. But you know how I feel. I think hope has these confusing feelings towards thomas. Feelings that she hasn’t even acknowledged to herself or to you.

Hope: Don’t worry about me. I can handle liam.

Deacon: Just a little gentle suggestion. Don’t handle him. Listen to him.

Hope: Yeah, except he’s not listening to me. I keep telling him it’s just business. Nothing more.

Deacon: You sure that thomas knows that?

Hope: Thomas isn’t the problem, okay? And besides, I’ve actually, I’ve been thinking about something else lately.

Deacon: What have you been thinking about?

Hope: You know, just you and mom. Your lives, the decisions that you’ve made.

Deacon: Oh, boy.

Hope: Mm-hmm. Obviously, dad, I know that you are a good man, but you know, once upon a time, maybe you didn’t make the best choices and kind of gave into your desires and maybe you were a little impulsive.

Deacon: Well, you know, it is true that I’m not exactly a paragon of restraint but, you know, had I not given in to some of those desires, you, my darling daughter would not be sitting here in front of me. But you’re not like that. You don’t have to worry about it. Everything looks so good.

Ridge: Charlie. Charlie. No, no, no, no. It’s– it’s a simple question. Is my passport in the safe? No. Okay. Thank you.

Eric: Leave charlie alone. You do this every time and–

Ridge: And every time, I find it. It’s okay.

Rj: I’m gonna remind mom about hers tonight. I’m sure that she knows where her passport is.

Ridge: You’re being very helpful. Thank you so much. Ha!

Rj: Hey!

Eric: We’re all so happy. We’re all so relieved. Now, what about taylor?

Ridge: What about her?

Eric: You said that she expressed the desire to maybe come along?

Rj: Whoa, wait a minute. Taylor’s gonna tag along with you to rome?

Ridge: It’s a big moment for her son.

Eric: Yeah. No question about that. But like you said, this is a business trip and I’m not sure that taylor tagging along is a very good idea. Especially with brooke there.

Brooke: Yes, I am going to rome. In addition to the preview and the press event, I will also be meeting with the top suppliers and our very important buyers.

Taylor: I’m just– I’m just glad that you– you get to be there to support your daughter.

Brooke: Yeah, she has a lot riding on this and she’s going to be center stage, so of course, I would be there to support her.

Taylor: You know something? I was thinking about going too.

Brooke: Oh, you’re just gonna tag along?

Taylor: You know, I actually mentioned to ridge that I’d like to be there to support thomas.

Brooke: When did you mention that to ridge? Before or after you told him that I haven’t changed and that I never will? Which is a complete lie, by the way. Oh, and then you told him how much you missed him.

Taylor: Yeah, it was the same conversation that you overheard. I guess you missed that part. Anyway, wouldn’t it be fun if we were on the same flight together?

Brooke: No, that is absolutely ridiculous. This is strictly business. This is forrester creations fashion. You have nothing to do with that, taylor. So, there’s absolutely no reason for you to be there.

Deacon: Sweetheart, look, I’m not putting your mother down. I mean, far from it. And without a question, brooke is one of the most exciting, passionate women on the planet, but she is also impulsive, like me. In the past, that’s gotten us both into hot water. Especially when it comes to affairs of the heart. Somehow, miraculously, we didn’t seem to pass that gene along to you. And you know, you’ve got a set of values that you live by, you know? You don’t let your emotions and your passions run wild. Frankly, I don’t know how you do it. I mean, I think you’re a saint.

[ Hope chuckling ]

Hope: No, dad. I am not a saint.

Steffy: Look, I’m not trying to cause you to question hope or make you paranoid, but my concerns haven’t changed.

Liam: Like, I’ve talked to hope about this and– and she’s assured me so many times there’s just nothing to worry about.

Steffy: Yeah, I– I realize that. But I also think she might be a little confused right now.

Liam: I know where you’re coming from. Like I know your intentions are good. It’s just the more I consider this, the more I gotta think you’re mistaken.

Steffy: I hope so. I– I really hope I’m wrong. But just to be safe, maybe you should come to rome. Welcome to my digestive system.

Rj: Granddad left pretty quickly to go see donna. Do you think everything’s okay?

Ridge: Oh, I– I think everything’s more than okay. This kind of stuff happens quite a bit.

Rj: Oh? Oh.

Ridge: Well, I’m glad we have this time alone together anyway because I wanted to talk to you. This trip that I’m taking with your mom to europe, don’t read too much into it.

Rj: Now, look, you know me, I’m– I’m allergic to the family drama. I hate all this stuff. I don’t want to get involved in any of it. But dad, mom is your destiny and you know it. The world knows it, including rome.

Taylor: Hey, brooke, it’s okay. I just– I just mentioned that I’d– that I’d like to go.

Brooke: Do I really need to say this again? You’re not in fashion, taylor. You’re a psychiatrist, you analyze people’s minds, not what they wear, so there’s really no reason for you to be there.

Taylor: You just don’t want me to go because you wanna jet off to rome just to be with ridge.

Brooke: Need I remind you I’m a very big part of forrester creations? I created the belief formula, the men’s line, taboo, and the very successful brooke’s bedroom line and now hope has her line, hope for the future.

Taylor: And that would have been pulled if it wasn’t for my son. So of course, I’d love to be there to support him.

Brooke: We all know why you want to be there. I can see right through you.

Deacon: It’s great to see you guys again. Thank you. Hey, what’s going on? You seem like you’re kind of down. Was it something I said?

Hope: Oh, no, no, no. No, it’s not– it’s not you. I just, um, have a lot going on in my life right now.

Deacon: You mean like resurrecting your company, an international fashion preview and maintaining your family? A little bit of advice. Honey, sometimes I think you might be a little hard on yourself. I mean, you’ve got all these– these goals and all these expectations and that’s fantastic. It’s important. But don’t forget to be human, all right? You know, let yourself have a little fun. It’s okay to make a couple of mistakes every now and then. You know, follow your passions.

[ Hope chuckling ]

Hope: Thank you. Uh, not exactly the advice that I was looking for, but um, it is appreciated. I need to be getting home to liam and the kids.

Deacon: Come here. Listen, you be careful, all right? But I want you to have a good time. I want you to make some memories. I know you’re gonna crush it in rome.

Hope: Thank you, dad.

Deacon: Okay, go get ’em.

Steffy: It’s totally up to you, but I think it would be wise to come along.

Liam: So funny. Wyatt said the same thing.

Steffy: And?

Liam: And uh, like I told him, I just, I refuse to be that guy that like insecure husband who’s keeping tabs on his wife.

Steffy: You’re not being insecure.

Liam: Yes. My wife works with your brother. I wish she didn’T. There’s nothing I can do about that, but it’s for all the reasons you and I both know. It has nothing to do with like a lack of faith in my wife.

Steffy: I know that. You have faith in hope just like I have faith in thomas. And I get this is hard for you and I’m not trying to add to it. How about I just keep an eye on things in rome? Just in case.

Rj: Look, I know that it– it sounds like I’m trying to push you and mom together, but I’m not, okay? It’s your lives, it’s your futures.

Ridge: But?

Rj: But, we both know if thomas hadn’t have done what he did, you and mom would still be together.

Ridge: Oh, stop it. I’ll always love your mom. Never gonna go away. We’re adults. We’re– we’re trying to break this cycle of pain and disappointment.

Rj: Okay, I get it, but I mean, unless you’re trying to join the clergy–

[ Ridge laughing ] I’m just saying.

Ridge: No, I know you’re just saying and I’m just saying, brooke and I, we don’t want to hurt each other anymore or the people we care about, including you.

Rj: Okay, I hear you. I’m just– I don’t know. Someday. Destiny. Maybe in rome.

Ridge: Yeah. All right.

Taylor: Wait a second. So– so you can see right through me? At least one of us is transparent, huh? All right. I just, I think that there’s– there’s more going on to this than you’re telling me. What is it?

Brooke: Okay. Yeah. There is. Um, I’m just a little bit worried about ridge.

Taylor: Why?

Brooke: I just feel like he’s lost, you know? Like, lost his faith.

Taylor: Lost his faith… in destiny? Oh, my god. That’s what it is. I’ve been right this whole time. Oh, god. So, you and ridge have been growing closer and– and now you’re going to rome to make him believe in love again. Oh, god. That’s what– I’m right. That’s what it is.

Brooke: Ciao, taylor.

Liam: Hey. Um, I just put the kids to bed.

Hope: Hm. Uh, well, I, uh, wasn’t working late with thomas, if that’s what you were wondering. I actually went to see my dad before I leave for this trip tomorrow.

Liam: Are you hungry? I can fix you something.

Hope: No, that’s okay. I’m just– I’m going to say goodnight to beth and douglaS.

Liam: Actually before you– just… because you already brought it up. But one last time, here’s my thing about thomas. It– it– it’s just–

Hope: Liam. Liam. Could we please not do this tonight? I’d really like our last night together to be one that’s peaceful and not talking about any of that. I mean, liam, look at me. I love you. More than anything. You’re the man I want in this life that we’ve built together as a family. I will not let anything jeopardize that. I made my vows to you, to love and to cherish you and nothing’s going to change that in the next few days, okay?

Liam: Yeah. No, I know.

Hope: I love you.

Liam: I know. I know. I know. I love you too.

Hope: Rome– rome’s going to be exciting. I mean, this might be one of hope for the future’s biggest successes and– and then I will be able to come home to you, to our family, to our life.

Liam: Yeah.

Daniel: I understand how urgent this is, but there is a right way and a wrong way to clear mom.

Summer: Okay. What would be so wrong with finding a witness that saw the whole thing?

Daniel: It’s a fake witness. One who could make matters worse 20 different ways.

Summer: What about my idea to find, um, the emt? Carson. He– he saw what stark did.

Daniel: He’s also a fugitive. He was a part of the plot. He’s not a credible witness. He’d be lying under oath, which means he’d be tacking another felony onto his record. Look, say that you did, by some miracle, convince this guy to do what you’re asking for some huge sum of money. Carson would hold that over your head for the rest of your life. He’d continue to extort you. You’d never be rid of him. Not to mention the fact that he might invent details that– that contradict mom’s story. I just think that the whole plan isn’t realistic.

Summer: Okay. You’re just throwing out worst case scenarios. This actually could work.

Daniel: Summer.

Summer: No, we need to find carson. We need to at least talk to him. All he has to do is tell the police that he saw mom act in self-defense.

Daniel: Oh, that’s all he has to do, huh?

Summer: Stark paid him to be an accomplice, so clearly, he can be bought. So, what, I– I find him, I give him a big bag of money and he says what I want him to say.

[ Daniel scoffs, sighs ]

Victor: I don’t care how damn busy you are. I wanna know what judge is responsible for today’s arraignments. Exactly. Get back to me. All right? Don’t give me a– what? Get to it.

Nikki: How is that going?

[ Victor groans in frustration ]

Victor: All I know is that I want our son out of that jail cell. He doesn’t belong there.

Nikki: As soon as cameron showed up in town, I think everybody expected this. I mean, there was bound to be a showdown.

Victor: Of course there was bound to be a showdown. Question is how to resolve it.

Nikki: I think we need to let michael do what he does best. He will get nicholas out as soon as possible. In the meantime, have there been any cameron sightings?

Victor: Uh-uh. And if that punk knows what’s good for him, he won’t show up anywhere near this house or our family.

Nikki: We’ve done what we can. Michael will keep us updated. So, in the meantime, why don’t we focus on our work and let him focus on his?

Victor: I know you’re trying to distract me. Good idea, too. There’s some business I want to discuss with you.

Nikki: Oh, the anderson deal. I have it right here.

Victor: No. I wanna talk to you about nate hastings. How’s he doing?

Nikki: You mean since he has started seeing victoria?

Victor: No, overall.

Nikki: I have to say, very well. He has made good decisions for newman media.

Victor: Good to know.

Nikki: I understand you’ve taken him under your wing.

Nate: My day was productive. Yours?

Victoria: Mine was… it was extremely productive.

Nate: Really?

Victoria: Yeah.

Nate: Why do you suppose that is?

Victoria: I don’t know. For some odd reason, I was just filled with energy.

Nate: Mm.

Victoria: Maybe it was that private meeting that we squeezed in before we went to the office.

Nate: Oh, you mean upstairs in the newman corporate suite?

[ Laughing ] You know, come to think of it, I was pretty invigorated myself afterward.

Victoria: I think we got a lot accomplished upstairs.

Nate: An amazing amount.

Victoria: We you usually do, though.

[ Nate chuckling ]

[ Phone chiming ]

Victoria: Oh, I’m sorry. I meant to turn my phone off.

Nate: No, go ahead. It’s fine.

Victoria: Sure?

Nate: Problem?

Victoria: Oh, my– my brother got arrested.

Nate: Oh, boy. What’s adam done now?

Victoria: No, not– not adam. Nicholas.

Nate: Are you serious?

Victoria: Yeah. Look, sadly we’re gonna have to cut this short. Excuse me. Can I please get the check?

Faith: I don’t understand how this can happen. That cameron kirsten freak is a criminal who killed a cat and dad is sitting in jail?

Sharon: Michael is a very sharp attorney. He will get your father out of there and out of trouble. Though it may take some time.

Faith: How much time? I never would’ve agreed to leave town if I’d known that you’d be alone.

[ Knocking on door ]

Chance: It’s chance.

Faith: How could you arrest my father?

Michael: Hey. How you doing? You hanging in there?

Nick: How do you think I’m doing? Kirsten is lying. These charges are a joke. It’s a setup to get me out of the way so I can’t protect sharon and faith. He’s obviously planning something, which means you have to get me out here now!

Michael: I appreciate the urgency, but you’re not gonna be arraigned ’til later today. And frankly, seeing how wound up you are right now, this might be the safest place for you. When migraine strikes, you’re faced with a choice.

Additional sponsorship provided by…

Daniel: Summer, we are not paying someone to lie to the authorities.

Summer: I still say–

Daniel: No, no, no, no, no. Look, we have broken enough laws already trying to help mom. Let’s not add any more to the list. People have gone to prison for a lot less. You wind up in a cell, how are you gonna help mom do anything?

Summer: I’m just thinking how mom would think. This is how she would approach things.

Daniel: Yeah? How’s that working out for her? She has screwed up her life beyond recognition. I mean, even she would tell you not to do this. It’s– it’s– it’s crazy, one, and it wouldn’t work.

Summer: You know what? If that’s your attitude, fine. I don’t need your help.

Nick: What do you mean you think it’s safer for me in here? Are you kidding me?

Michael: Nick! Nick, I am on your side.

Nick: Are you sure about that, michael?

Michael: I know exactly what I’m dealing with. All right? If you’ll recall, I was the first to hear about cameron, how vicious he is. Years ago, sharon told me what happened in denver before she admitted it to anyone else. The man is a disgusting pig, but he’s not stupid. In fact, he’s got you all figured out. You didn’t even touch him, and where are you? In jail. Out of commission. Because cameron anticipated that you’d come for him and he used it like a judo move against you. Pretty damn elegant if you ask me. Now, you are gonna stay in here for an hour or so and calm down while we wait for your arraignment. In the meantime, chance is with sharon, looking out for her. I mean, her own private special forces expert. I’ll even check on her, too, on my way.

Nick: Just make sure that sharon is safe and you keep cameron kirsten away from faith.

Michael: I give you my word. Between chance and me and victor’s security team, there’s gonna be a whole lot of people watching over them.

Nick: And I’m grateful for that, believe me. But I’m afraid that cameron is planning something, and once he puts it in motion, there may be no stopping it.

Chance: Cameron kirsten filed a complaint against your father. His face was beaten. And nick did admit to going to his hotel room, and his hands were bruised, so I had to follow the law.

Faith: Dad punched the wall. It is his word against cameron’S.

Chance: Well, the truth has a way of coming out in court.

Faith: Well, it needs to come out now. Dad shouldn’t be in jail. He shouldn’t have to deal with any of this. And he should be here with mom.

Chance: I understand that this guy is a creep, and that’s why I’m here. Since nick can’t be with you, I’m here to protect you.

Sharon: You are such a wonderful young woman. And I promise you, we will all be together again soon. But if you’re going to catch your flight, you better scoot.

Chance: I have a plainclothes officer outside in an unmarked car. His name’s officer swift. He’s gonna drive you to the airport and escort you to the gate. I’m gonna stay here with your mother so all bases are covered.

Faith: I hate leaving you with this guy in town.

Sharon: I am not afraid of him. And I do not want you worrying about me. You text me from your seat before you take off. Promise me.

Faith: I will.

Sharon: All right. Give me a hug. Okay. Remember to drink water. Stay hydrated. Those planes are very dry.

Faith: [ Chuckling ] Okay. Hydrate. Got it.

Chance: Come on. I’ll walk you out.

[ Kissing ]

Faith: I love you. Bye.

Sharon: I love you. Safe flighT. And we’re done.

Sharon: I really appreciate you coming by. But shouldn’t you be out there looking for cameron?

Chance: Well, I got my team and victor’s guys on high alert. I’m gonna stay put, if that’s okay? I’m sure as hell not gonna leave you here alone. Plus i told nick I’d look after you. So, just feel free to ignore me and go back to business.

Sharon: Well, I can’t just putter around you like you’re the furniture.

Chance: Ah, sure you can. I’ll blend right in. You’ll be mistaking me for an old ottoman in no time.

Sharon: [ Laughing ] Somehow I doubt that.

Chance: It’s nice to hear you laugh again.

Sharon: Well… you’re a positive influence. And not just on me. I appreciate you being so reassuring with faith. These past few days have been tough on her.

Chance: Yeah, she’s a good kid.

Sharon: Now that she’s off to college, the time I have with her is really precious. You know, a few short years from now she’ll be graduated and off on her own, and– and then I’m really gonna miss her.

Chance: Well, I can tell how much you two love each other. I doubt she’ll end up very far away from home.

Sharon: I hope not. Having to send her away like this is agonizing. It’s one of the reasons why I’m so angry with cameron. You know, I want this house to be a haven for faith.

Chance: Yeah, I understand that. I kinda wanted something similar at my place for dominic. Didn’t really work out for me.

Sharon: Well, it’s tough when you’re trying to keep your kids safe.

[ Knocking ]

Chance: It’s okay.

[ Phone ringing ]

Summer: Mom.

Phyllis: Hey, I’m glad you picked up.

Summer: I’m glad that we got you out of there when we did. Kyle brought chance straight to your room.

Phyllis: Yeah, that was a good call. I’m sure they’re still looking for me.

Summer: Yeah. Everybody wants to know where you’re hiding and they think that I’m keeping the secret.

Phyllis: Well, that’s why I’m not letting you know. Not that I can’t trust you.

Summer: It’s my own fault that kyle found you in the first place and I– I’m gonna make it up to you.

Phyllis: What? You have nothing to make up. Are you kidding me?

Summer: No, I’m gonna– I’m gonna find that emt that was in on the plan with you and stark– carson. I’m gonna find him and I’m gonna make him go to the police and say that he saw stark attack you and that you had to defend yourself.

Phyllis: No, you are absolutely not going to do that, summer.

Summer: Mom–

Phyllis: No, I mean it, summer. If anyone’s gonna find the emt, it’s gonna be me. You got it? He broke so many laws. I’m sure he’s very far from genoa city right now.

Summer: But… if I paid him enough–

Phyllis: Summer, I mean it. No! I’m gonna take care of this on my own now. Okay? I’m gonna come up with a plan. Please trust me. I don’t wanna pull you and daniel into any of this mess anymore. What I want you to do is go to kyle and work on your relationship. Fix it. Okay?

Summer: I don’t even know if that’s possible.

Phyllis: Anything is possible. Go try. All right, super girl? Listen, I have so much to make up for. I can’t have your marriage on my conscience.

Victoria: Hi. So–

Nikki: Hi, guys.

Victor: Oh, hey.

Victoria: What’s the latest? Is nick okay? I’m assuming that cameron is behind this.

Nikki: Yeah. Who else? As far as we have heard–

Victor: Your brother is being arraigned momentarily. Michael baldwin will call as soon as he’s finished with the hearing.

Nikki: We’re confident he’ll be released on bail.

Victoria: [ Scoffs ] As usual, nick couldn’t help himself. He had to take matters into his own hands. You know this isn’t gonna reflect well for the company.

Victor: Nicholas denies he attacked the man.

Nikki: You know, that is such classic cameron. It’s all based on his twisted vendetta against your brother and sharon.

Victoria: I don’t doubt that’s an element. But we all know how aggressive nick can be when he’s protecting the people that he loves.

Victor: And if you recall, that helped you a great deal, didn’t it? Anyway, michael baldwin will, I’m sure, solve the problem. He owes me one.

Nikki: I trust him implicitly.

Nate: Michael is one of the best.

Victoria: On a personal note, I sympathize. Cameron is a horrible excuse for a human being. But as ceo, I have to be practical. Nick and sharon helped to put him away for murder. All it’s gonna take is a reporter with an ax to grind, to connect the dots in other areas. And that, dad, is the last kind of publicity that we need.

Victor: What are you talking about?

Victoria: Until this conflict is resolved and he clears his name, I’m gonna ask nick to take a leave of absence. Ladies…

Nikki: A leave of absence?

Victor: What are you talking about?

Nate: Uh, clearly this is a family matter, so I’ll excuse myself, if you don’t mind.

Victor: Thank you, nate.

Nate: I’ll talk to you later.

Victoria: Yeah.

[ Nate clearing throat ] Nick has one priority right now: Protecting his family.

Victor: As he protected you from ashland locke.

Victoria: Exactly. We don’t wanna draw attention to nick taking the law into his own hands. It’s the right solution for both him and for the company.

Victor: Sweetheart, it isn’t your call to make.

Victoria: Well, what do you think, mom? How do you feel about nick trying to deal with work while getting himself out of this legal trouble, while protecting faith and sharon at the same time?

Nikki: I agree with your father. I mean, yes, he needs to focus on his family, keep them safe. I’m happy to cover for him, but I don’t think we should call it a formal leave of absence. That would just raise more questions.

Victor: Just personal time off. End of story. No one else’s business.

Victoria: Okay. Well, you can call it whatever you wanna call it, but I want nick to be free to focus his energies where they belong right now.

Phyllis: I’m gonna do things on my own now, summer. Okay? I made a mistake. I put you in a horrible position. But I’m going to take care of everything now. All right?

Summer: But, mom, I can help you. The only thing that I wanna do right now is bring you home. And if getting carson to cooperate is what it takes–

Phyllis: No! Summer, I mean it. This is non-negotiable. You got it? Drop it.

Summer: [ Scoffs ] Fine. You win. What are you gonna do now?

Phyllis: Um, I’m not quite sure, but you don’t need to worry about me. You know me. I’m gonna come up with something. But what I want you to do is go to your husband. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be okay.

[ Sighing ]

Sharon: Nick must be climbing the walls in there.

Michael: No, he’s just anxious to have this arraignment over and done with.

[ Sharon sighing ]

Sharon: I thought that this nightmare was behind us, michael, a long time ago, when cameron got sent to prison.

Michael: Look, this time, you went straight to the authorities. You did the smart thing.

Sharon: I remember you begging me last time. “Tell nick, go to the police. Don’t try to handle this maniac on your own.” But I… I was just too terrified. I couldn’t bring myself to do it.

Michael: We’ve handled everything correctly this time. And I’m– I’m here to help.

Sharon: And we are eternally grateful.

[ Whispering ] I think I lost my mind last time. And… I– I cannot have that kind of violence or cruelty in my life again. And I will be damn sure that faith never experiences anything like that.

Michael: Um, detective, I don’t wanna alarm you, but, um… uh, nick thinks that cameron is up to something. And I’m afraid I have to agree.

Chance: Yeah, I think so, too. Now that he’s got nick out of the way, feels like he might make a move soon. All’s quiet on the ranch so far, though.

Sharon: Well, I am so glad that faith is going far, far away from here.

[ Phone ringing ]

Daniel: Hello?

“The young and the restless” will continue.

Sharon: If cameron is planning something, I need to be ready. I wish there was some way we could know what he was planning and when he was going to attack.

Chance: We’re working on that. Don’t worry about it.

Sharon: Well, I’d be thrilled if you found a reason to arrest the creep. It’s the waiting that’s killing me.

Michael: Yeah. Unfortunately, it’s all part of the process.

Sharon: Well, in the meantime, every creak, every gust of wind has me thinking it’s cameron lurking somewhere.

Michael: Well, maybe we’re all mistaken and he’s not gonna pull anything tonight because of the beefed up security. But I would like to get a restraining order.

Chance: That’s a great idea.

Michael: If you agree, I’ll try to push it through asap.

Sharon: Yes. If you think he’ll abide.

Michael: Well, if he doesn’t, he’ll be cooling his heels in a jail cell somewhere. Now, let me head into town. I will set it in motion. There’s not really very much left I can do here right now.

Sharon: Okay. It’s going to be another long evening and a sleepless night.

Chance: Well, don’t worry. I’ll be here, so you can rest. Tomorrow may be tense.

[ Phone ringing ]

Michael: Oh, I’m sorry. I should take this. Summer, what’s up?

Summer: I’m at society. Can you meet me? It’s about my mom.

Michael: Your mom? Um… uh, uh, I’ve got some time before nick’s arraignment. I can be there in 20.

Summer: Okay. I’ll see– wait, nick’s what?

Daniel: Oh, you’re worried about summer? What did she tell you? Her ridiculous plan?

Phyllis: Yeah, she did. And I told her in the strongest possible terms not to pursue it. I was adamant, but I’m afraid she’s just gonna do what she wants anyway.

Daniel: Yeah. You’re probably right.

Phyllis: Okay, so, listen. This emt guy, his name is carson. He’s really sketchy. And not only that, he was really, really scared, which is not a good sign. I mean, he stole two bodies from the morgue. He faked two deaths, and then he lied to the police. He’s probably long gone by now, I’m sure.

Daniel: You’re sure or you hope?

Phyllis: I don’t know. But listen, daniel, if she confronts him with the truth and he knows that now his cover is blown, who knows what he’s gonna do. That just can’t happen. You have to make sure she doesn’t do this. Please. We don’t wanna mess with this guy.

Daniel: I tried to talk her out of it, but no such luck.

Phyllis: Well, you have to try again. Whatever it takes, daniel, you have to. Please. I gotta go.

Daniel: Hey, hey, wait, wait. Mom. Where are you? Does summer know?

Phyllis: No, she doesn’t know. And you’re not gonna know either. I’m gonna take care of myself from now on. I’m gonna come up with a plan. I’ll be fine. I need you and your sister to back away from this. I’m gonna keep you safe from now on.

Michael: Summer.

Summer: What’s going on with my dad?

Michael: Um, he ran into some trouble. It’ll be taken care of in… hold, 45 minutes.

Summer: But he’s in jail?

Michael: Well, for now. Talk to him when– when he gets out. He’ll tell you what happened. You both will have a good laugh over it.

Summer: Oh, god. My dad is in jail. My mom is on the run.

[ Chuckling ] What is happening in my life? What–

Michael: Summer, I’m taking care of your dad. It’s just a big misunderstanding. Really. Don’t worry about him. Now, tell me what’s happening with phyllis. Have you seen her?

Summer: Yeah, I have. And I– I– I think that she’s nearby, but she– she won’t tell me where she is.

Michael: Good. SmarT.

Summer: I have a plan to bring her home safely.

Michael: [ Grunts ] And you need my help?

Summer: I need you to help me find the emt that stark paid to help with the whole faking mom’s death thing. Carson.

Michael: Yeah. I know who he is. The guy’s a crook. What could you possibly want with him?

Summer: I wanna convince him to be a witness. Say that he saw stark abusing my mom. Say that she had to act in self-defense. And then we can get her off the hook for murder, at least. And I will pay for it. You don’t have to worry about that part.

Michael: Okay. Okay. Look, everything you just said, we are not going to do.

Summer: I’m trying–

Michael: No way, no how.

Summer: I’m trying to find a solution.

Michael: Yeah. Well, you would be committing serious crimes with a wanted man to aid and abet another fugitive. I mean, we’re talking about fraud, obstruction, witness tampering, conspiracy to suborn perjury– that’s just the beginning. Look, n– the answer is no. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Have I made myself clear?

Summer: Okay, you sound like my mom and daniel.

Michael: Yeah. Well, then listen to all three of us tell you to forget this unworkable scheme.

Summer: Michael, you’re supposed to be my mom’s oldest and dearest friend. Do you not think that we owe it to her to help her try to come home without a prison sentence?

Michael: Sweetheart, you know my history. I’ve been there. I’m not breaking the law. I’m not doing for phyllis. I’m not doing it for anyone. And I’m not encouraging you to do so.

Summer: So, what, then? She’s just– she’s just doomed? I’m– I’m not ever gonna see my mom again? And I– if she gets caught, she’s gonna spend the rest of her life in prison.

Michael: All right, all right, all right, you might wanna take that down a notch. Because hysteria really doesn’t work with me. No, I– I am, I am grateful that you brought up this carson character. I don’t want you anywhere near him. But he could be a critical piece of this puzzle.

Summer: Wait. Seriously?

Michael: Yeah. He could legitimately testify that stark was the mastermind behind phyllis’s fake death, and about his darker tendencies, which may have caused phyllis to kill him in– in– in self-defense.

Summer: So, you do think that he could help with her case?

Michael: Potentially. It’s a long shot. We have to locate him, we have to convince him to return to the jurisdiction and– and expose himself to possible arrest.

Summer: But there’s hope. That’s what– that’s what matters. There’s hope.

Michael: Only if you swear not to make any moves on your own, or to get your hopes up too high. Then– then I will do everything I can to follow up on this angle.

Summer: It has to work. She has to come home.

Michael: There’s one caveat. I don’t have the necessary resources for a, um… well, something this delicate. You may have to bring in the big guns.

[ Victoria sighing ]

Nikki: When did you wanna go over your brother’s projects and divvy them up?

Victoria: However you wanna allocate them is fine by me.

[ Keyboard clacking ]

Nikki: You seem a bit agitated.

Victoria: Well, I have work a pile high. It’s late. I’d like to get out of here at a reasonable hour.

Nikki: Big plans with nate?

Victoria: I didn’t say that.

Nikki: Well, I can’t help wondering if your relationship is influencing your decision about your brother’s status.

Victoria: My concern is for nick and the company. Nate has nothing to do with this.

Nikki: Well, let me ask you this. If nicholas were to walk away from newman for whatever reason, would you consider elevating nate to that position?

Nate: Nick’s dealing with some serious issues that require his full attention.

Audra: Hmm.

Nate: Victoria’s gonna ask him to take a leave of absence.

Audra: Creating an opening you could take advantage of.

Nate: Even if it’s temporary, it will give me a chance to show what I’m capable of at that level, without nick around constantly breathing down my neck.

Audra: Mm. And bring me one step closer to running newman media.

[ Nate chuckles ]

Nate: Here’s to us. Advancing our plan.

Audra: [ Laughs ] I’ll drink to that.

Kyle: Summer’s not here.

Daniel: Actually, I came here to talk to you.

Kyle: Why?

Daniel: Because I’m worried about her. She’s desperate. She’s trying to come up with ways to help mom that are risky. They– they don’t make any sense. And she’s not gonna listen to me but she might– she might listen to you. I mean, that is if you’re willing to talk to her. Are you? Can you forgive her just a little bit?

Victor: Michael baldwin, why aren’t you getting my son out of jail?

Michael: Oh, well, I’m headed to the arraignment right after this meeting.

Summer: Hi.

Victor: Hello, sweetheart.

Summer: Thank you for coming, grandpa.

Victor: Yep. Thank you. So, what is this all about?

Summer: Um… we need your resources to, um, help track someone down. Carson, the emt from the night of the gala. We think that he could help my mom’s case, but we need to find him first.

Victor: So, you want my investigator to find a criminal to help another criminal, your mother? And by the way, you, mr. Baldwin, you left my employ to help diane jenkins, against my wishes.

Michael: Well, it was proven she was innocent. So, I did the right thing. That should pardon some of my sins.

Victor: How would that pardon phyllis’ sins? Why should I lift a finger for a woman who has caused so much hell and stress for my granddaughter?

Chance: So, rey and I pull up on the scene, right? It’s this possible burglary in process. Apparently what happened was this couple was walking into their house with groceries. The husband was telling the wife a joke, and after he hit the punchline, they heard somebody laugh upstairs.

Sharon: [ Gasps ] Oh, my gosh. No. How creepy.

Chance: Yeah. So, they drop their groceries, they run outside, they call the cops, right? Rey and I get there. We go upstairs and we find nothing but an open window and nothing stolen.

Sharon: Oh, too bad you didn’t catch the guy, but…

Chance: Yeah.

Sharon: At least nobody got hurt.

Chance: True. True. But the– the lesson here is, right, if you’re a burglar, don’t laugh.

[ Both laughing ] Come on. Come on. What’s up? Something wrong?

Sharon: Faith. She should have texted me by now to let me know she’s okay.

For your most brilliant smile,

Victoria: Mom, I’m not trying to push nicholas out of the family company, if that’s what you’re asking. I love working with him. I do. I– would I prefer it if he kept his opinions about my personal life to himself? Of course, I would. But other than that, I love having him here working alongside us.

Nikki: Well, that’s very interesting, but you didn’t answer my question.

Victoria: Okay, then. Let me be more direct. If nick came to me and told me that he was leaving newman enterprises permanently, then yes. I would consider having nate take over as coo.

Kyle: Look, I don’t want to talk about this.

Daniel: Oh, I’m sure you don’T.

Kyle: I’ve got no problem with you. Okay? You’ve been decent through all of this. But this whole thing with summer lying and pretending not to know where phyllis was while framing my mom, it’s just too much.

Daniel: Hey, listen, man, I was furious with her, too. But when I spoke with her earlier, she was so stressed out. She’s not thinking straight. And I hate to say it, but when she feels like she has her back up against a wall, she’s a lot like our mother. And I’m worried that she’s gonna do something reckless thinking that it’s gonna help her.

Kyle: Daniel, as upset as I am with summer, I still love her. And the last thing I want is to see her hurt. But as far as you asking me to step in, I think you’re expecting too much.

Daniel: Why?

Kyle: Because it wouldn’t do any good. The way things are between summer and me, it’s pretty obvious my wife doesn’t give a damn what I say or do anymore.

Summer: Grandpa, this is my mom that we’re talking about. And I love her. And I know that you love me. Gosh, I just want her to be able to come home without a murder charge hanging over her head.

Michael: Victor, however this turns out, phyllis is not gonna be going home to a bed of roses. She has a lot of consequences to face for her actions. And so does carson. He has committed a multitude of crimes that he’ll have to answer for, which doesn’t make him the most credible witness, but at the moment, he’s all that phyllis has got.

Summer: Look, I’m not over what she did. Not at all. She made me and daniel suffer so much. But after thinking that my mom was gone forever, I just want her back home.

Victor: I understand how you feel, my darling. But every fiber of my body is against the notion of bringing phyllis back into this town. I mean, after all she has done, all the damage she has done to so many people, and most of all, to you.

Summer: Does that mean that–

Victor: Well, if you look at me like that, I’ll help you find carson.

[ Exhales in relief ]

Chance: Anything?

Sharon: No.

Chance: Maybe the flight got delayed.

Sharon: Faith would’ve said that to me. She would’ve told me that, too.

Chance: Look, we’ll give her a ring. See if she– see what the deal is. Call her.

[ Phone ringing ]

Sharon: Straight to voicemail.

Chance: Okay. Well, it could be airplane mode, right?

Sharon: No. Faith, she promised me, she promised she would check in. She wouldn’t neglect to do so.

Chance: Let me call swift, see what the deal is. Hold on.

[ Phone ringing ] It’s voicemail.

[ Sharon sniffling ] Oh, my god.

Chance: Hold on. Hold on.

Sharon: Chance!

Chance: Hold on, hold on. Give me a second.

[ Phone ringing ] Yeah. Hey, this is detective chancellor, genoa city pd. I need to know if a faith newman is on the passenger manifest for trans-global airlines flight 875. Yeah, I was scheduled to, uh– to leave genoa city a half hour ago. Yes. I’ll hold.

Sharon: I just– I don’t like this. I don’t like this one bit, chance. I don’t like this.

Chance: All right. Thank you.

[ Faith crying ] The flight took off. Faith wasn’t on board.

Sharon: No! No! No! [ Sobbing ] Chance!

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

just so we’re clear — I don’t like the fact that you’re going to keep working for sonny, but I do understand why. It’ll be a lot safer this time. Oh, good. Maybe you’ll get shot less. Sonny can’t catch me spying for michael because I’m no longer spying for michael. Okay, well, I’m still going to worry. Nice to know someone cares about what happens to me. Get used to it. You’re not alone anymore. Hey, uh… truce?

[ Siren wails ]

[ Telephone rings ] 10th floor.

[ Indistinct conversations ] Just a moment, please. They’re asking to speak with the head nurse. I’ll take it. This is the head nurse. Elizabeth baldwin.

[ Breathes sharply ] Oh, I’m so sorry. Unfortunately, nurse johnson is no longer with us. Thank you. Yes, she was a — a very special person. Of course I can. I’ll transfer you. Mm-hmm.

[ Receiver clicks ]

[ Sighs ] I still miss her. Me, too. All the time. But being here is when I miss epiphany the most. Austin: Hey. Mm. There’s something going on out there. Do you know what’s going on out by the pool? Apparently, somebody fell. They called the paramedics. Anyway, have a seat. Oh, thank you. This is cozy, right? A public place but still away from it all. Well, I thought privacy would be best, considering we’re talking about betraying the most dangerous man I know. You okay? Yeah. Would you believe me if I told you I was?

[ Chuckles ] Is this still about what happened after I got back from nixon falls? Because that’s all — I — you have to — you have to know that’s all behind us, right? Mm. We’ve — we’ve both done things that we regret. You have. I have. And guess what — you move forward. Yeah. Sonny and I are engaged. Oh. Not for long. Gee, ned, most people say, “congratulations.” Nina, just accept the fact that you and sonny will not be living happily ever after. You know, that tip was anonymous. There’s no way that anyone will be able to prove that you did it, ned. Because I didn’t do it —

you did. I know that we’ve moved on from what happened back then. What’s the problem? It’s just… I will always regret the pain that I caused you. I’m not leaving you, ned.

[ Sniffles ] Not for one single second. What happened? Okay, um… drew attacked ned. He practically killed him! Put your badge to use and arrest him for assault! Drew attacked my dad? W-wait. What? Th– that — that is not what happened. Ned came charging in here, and it looked like he tripped on something, hit his head, and fell in the pool. It was an accident. It was attempted murder. Okay. If anything, I saved his life. I went in the pool, and I pulled him out before he drowned, tracy. You were covering your tracks. Oh, my — if it had just been the two of us, you would have let him drown. Well, that — that doesn’t sound like drew. This is not the first time he attacked ned.

[ Sighs ] He sucker-punched him back at the house. You were there. You saw it. Brook lynn? That’s true, but — what are you waiting for? Arrest him. Tracy, this is not the time! They’re taking your father down in the service elevator. I’m going to ride with him in the ambulance. I’m right behind you. Okay. I’m going, too. Do your duty.

[ Radio chatter ] Hey… hey, I-I mean… I was nowhere near ned when he fell, okay? I — are you seriously going to arrest me?


As I’m settling in as the new head nurse, I’m trying not to compare myself to epiphany, but rather do the job to the best of my ability. But there are moments… when I forget that she’s gone, and I just wish so badly that I could ask for her advice or have her listen to me vent or watch her make some arrogant doctor twitch in fear. You liked that, didn’t you?

[ Chuckles ] Very much so. Hmm. A little less fun, though, when you’re on the receiving end. Oh, please. She liked you right from the start. And if she was tough on you, it was only because she knew you could do better. Yeah, I just hope I lived up to her expectations. Well, if you didn’t, she would have told you. Yeah, she would, wouldn’t she?

[ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ] It is so hard to say goodbye to her. I loved her. She taught me so much — never to take this place for granted. That’s one of the perksof medicine, isn’t it? It’s never boring. It’s never finished. There’s always something left to learn. Very upbeat and optimistic of you. Hmm. You sound surprised. Not really. You’re a lot more hopeful than you want people to believe. Don’t worry. Your secret is safe with me.

[ Chuckles ] You’re still angry? Yeah, I am. But I’m also grateful that you gave mom the footage of sonny and pikeman, even though you refused to use it. Did she tell you that she destroyed the flash drive? She did. And that was her choice. Oh, well, at least you’re giving people choices now. Unlike dex. Joss — you did everything he asked you to do, and you are leaving him out to dry. Actually, that is not true. I want to hire dex again.

[ Breathes sharply ] I have another job for you.

[ Indistinct conversations ] Drew! There’s something I have to tell you. Ned! Zeke: Drew? Hey. Zeke. Hey, hey, hey. I’m glad you’re here, actually. Hey. What’s — what’s going on? And why are you wet? I, um… my cousin ned came in here,and he tripped and hit his head. He fell in the pool. I had to go in and — and — and rescue him. I gave him cpr. He wasn’t breathing. I-is he going to be okay? I don’t know. He was unconscious when the paramedics dragged him out of here. Wait, is this the same ned that ratted out you and carly spencer to the sec? That’s him. Drew. Please tell me you didn’t — you didn’T… no! I-I didn’t do anything. I was — I was nowhere near him. Un– unfortunately, right now, it’s my word against his mother’S. And his mother is tracy quartermaine. Ohh. And no one else saw what happened? Afraid not. Try and understand. I-I think there’s more dangerous things in this world than sonny corinthos. Well, maybe for you, but sonny can keep avery away from me, and nothing in this world would be worse for me than losing my child. I-I think you’re just not using your imagination.

[ Scoffs lightly ] You know, I’m really — I’m — I’m sick of these vague portents of doom. Okay. Well, how’s this for doom? M-mason is capable of making sure that you never see avery or anybody else ever again. Forever. I know mason isn’t the one calling the shots. He reeks of errand boy. But is that all he is? Mason is a lot of things — many, many things, and none of them good. I don’t really understand what you’re asking. You want — you want to narrow it down a little bit for me? Could mason be acting on his own? Without his boss knowing? We settled this a long time ago. Why are you dredging it up now? I’m just — I’m just in a mood, s-sonny. One that I don’t necessarily want to be in. Hey. Are you still working? Or can I tempt you away? Well, I mean… …you always tempt me.

[ Chuckles ] What do you — what do you have in mind? Uh, well, what I want, what I really want is — feel my heart? Mm. I do. Let’s get out of here. Let’s go home, get into bed… .. .and let’s pretend the restof the world doesn’t exist. Ned quartermaine — do you know where he is?

[ Voice breaking ] Holy mary, mother of god, pray for us sinners now and… olivia? How is he? Did he wake up in the ambulance? No, he didn’T. But I was talking to him the whole way there. I just hope that he could feel that I was there with him.

[ Sniffles ] Is that where he is? Yes, but you can’t go in there right now. Do you know how much money my family has given to this hospital? Nobody’s stopping me. Tracy! Mother to mother, I respect that ned is your son. But if you interrupt his treatment right now and he dies on that gurney, I promise you, we will be having a double funeral. Okay.

[ Crying ] Have the doctors said anything? No, no, no, no. Dr. Ashford is in there with him right now. Finn. Ned has a head injury. Finn: Oh. Dr. Ashford is with him right now. Do you know dr. Ashford? I do. I do. He’s a — he’s a very talented intern. No, no, that’s not good enough. I want you to examine him. Oh, I’m — I’m — I’m not a neurologist. I don’t care. Okay, I’ll take a look. You have another job for dex? After you left him hanging? That’s unbelievable. Let’s go. Joss, wait. I want to hear his offer. You don’t owe him any more favors. Michael hired me to spy on sonny. That’s a job, not a favor. What do you want me to do?

[ Scoffs ] I want you to do what you’ve already been doing. Keep working for sonny. What?! So he can risk his life getting more evidence that you won’t use?

[ Sighs ] I don’t need you to gather evidence. I need you to keep an eye on sonny. Protect him.


This is a 180. Yeah. Five minutes ago, you wanted sonny in prison. Yeah. Besides, sonny already pays me to protect him. Yes. Which is why this will work. All you have to do is keep doing what you normally do for sonny. If you get wind of any trouble from pikeman or anyone, report back to me. To what end? So I can help him. No. No, michael, this is insane. You’re putting dex right back where he was, spying on sonny for you. You can’t possibly think this is a good idea. Josslyn… this was my idea. Sonny: I like the way you think, but, um, I’m waiting on a call from brick. Mm. Are you choosing brick over me? Well, you know, brick and I go way back, and you’re like a — a close second, like a photo finish. Now you’re comparing me to a horse? Well, not just any horse. A racehorse.

[ Both laugh ] Consider me swept off my feet. Alright. I’m — I’m going to talk to brick. Shouldn’t take too long. And then you’re going to have me. And for the rest of our lives.

[ Indistinct conversations ] Olivia: How is ned? Is he awake? Is he talking? Can we see him? Yeah… we managed to stabilize ned, but he’s still unconscious. We’re gonna take him for a ct scan, alright? Um, we believe there might be some swelling in the brain. A specialist will meet us at imaging and — and go over the scans as they’re being taken. How bad is it that he hasn’t regained consciousness yet? It’s entirely too soon to jump to any conclusions. Soon? Feels like we’ve been waiting forever. I know. And I know the waiting is hard. But I promise you, ned’s getting the best possible care.

[ Crying ] Can you, uh… can you tell me what happened? I don’t know. I wasn’t there. By the time I got to the pool area, he was already on the ground and the paramedics were all over him. I was there. I saw everything. Drew cain flew into a rage and attacked him. Oh. O-okay. Why wouldn’t — why would drew do that? Because he is convinced that ned turned him in to the sec. He wants revenge. Hey, drew, would you come down to the station and answer a few questions? What? No, not without his lawyer present. Um, chase, this is my attorney, zeke robinson. This is detective harrison chase. He’s also a family friend. It’s good to meet you. Same. I just need to get your official statement. And why can’t you do that here? Well, an accusation has been made. As such, it’s customary to do this down at the station. But by all means, his attorney should be present. Look, my client is soaked from rescuing his cousin, ned. Yeah, it’s — it’s fine. Why can’t this wait? It’s fine. It’s fine. It’s fine. I’m perfectly happy to go down and answer some questions. No problem. Could you excuse us a moment? Uh, sure. Hey. Hey. What’s going on? Don’t you want to go to the hospital and be with your family? Yeah, but, I mean, if I go there now, tracy’s going to start pointing fingers. She’s probably already telling everybody in earshot that I tried to kill her son. Great. I’ll prepare the slander suit. In the meantime, we got to make this thing go away as quickly as possible, okay? The last thing we need is — is tracy’s wild accusations to complicate our case with the sec. Another dead end?

[ Sighs ] Yeah. Uh, no, I know you’re not giving up, brick, and I’m not giving up, either. Alright. Talk to you soon.

[ Breathes sharply ] Bad news? Eh, brick’s trying to track down some information for me. It’s just taking a little longer than I thought. So, um, you know, if you — if you — if there’s any way you want to distract me a little… well, I’ll try my best. Alright.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

[ Chuckles ] Ignore it. No. Ignore it. I-I-I… aaah, I’m sorry. Hold on.

[ Ringing continues ] It’s brook lynn. Yeah. Okay. Just calm down. I’ll be right there. What’s going on? Uh, ned fell, hit his head. He’s at general hospital. Oh, my god. Is he going to be okay? I don’t know, but — but brook lynn was very upset. And ned didn’t tell them what happened? He’s unconscious. I got to go. I got to go. Oh, yeah. I-I’ll go with you. Hey, sonny. I’ll go with you. Okay, let’s go. Okay. Are you certain that mason is acting on orders? And could it be that he’s just torturing us for the hell of it because he likes having power over you? He does like having power over me. But he’s not the one calling the shots. Who is? And how do we get out from under them? Ava, I have been trying for years to get out from under them, and it’s just not possible. That should tell you how powerful these people are. And I know you don’t want to hear it, but the best course of action — for you. For both of us is for you to do what mason wants you to do. And go against sonny? That’s suicide. You are avery’s mother. That protects you with sonny. Exactly. But if you don’t do what mason wants, it could get us both killed.


[ indistinct conversations ]

[ Crying ] Oh, sonny. How did you know that we were here? How did you — I called him. Okay, so, um, what do we know? Practically nothing. They took dad for a ct scan. Did he wake up? Did you talk to him? No, no, no. He’s — he’s unconscious, sonny. He’s — sonny. He’s going to be okay. He’s a fighter. They’re taking care of him. You don’t understand. And he wasn’t breathing. I’m so sorry that this is happening. Yeah, well, so are we. Um, sonny and i were shocked when we got your call, brook lynn. And this is a horrible accident. Tracy: It wasn’t an accident. Drew tried to kill ned. Okay. I know you’re upset, tracy, and you want to blame somebody, but drew had nothing to do with this. I can state it right now. Oh, god. Of course you’d say that. You always deny crimes that have actually been committed. I mean, why wouldn’t you defend a former navy seal who’s trained to kill? Why would a man like that ever get violent? I-in a public place? In front of you? What part of “in a rage” do you not get? Olivia: Oh, tj.

[ Breathing deeply ] How’s my husband? So you want dex to continue to risk his life, but instead of risking it to put sonny in jail, he’s risking it to protect him? I want dex to keep doing what he’s been doing. The only difference is you have michael as backup if there’s any trouble. Why are you doing this? And don’t say donna and avery. Michael: No, you’re right, joss. This goes beyond our baby sisters. Yeah. This is about keeping us safe and moving on. Except dex can’t move on if dex gets caught this time. Joss, can I talk to you… privately? I need you to think about what we said. An d I want you to understandhow important this is. Don’t tell me you’re actually considering it.

[ Recorder beeps ] Chase: Detective harrison chase to interview drew cain in the matters of injuries sustained by ned quartermaine this evening at the metro court hotel pool. Also present is drew cain’s attorney, zeke robinson. Mr. Cain, you are here voluntarily. Is that correct? I am. Could you walk me through what happened? Tracy quartermaine and I, we were in the pool area. Um, ned came rushing out. He — he was calling my name. Kind of came around the corner. Seemed like he tripped on something. He went down, hit his head, immediately rolled into the pool. Facedown, unconscious, bleeding. I went in. I pulled him out of the pool. I determined that he wasn’t breathing. I checked for a pulse. There was no pulse. I started performing cpr. I told tracy to call 911. And…I mean, that’s that, until the paramedics showed up and — and they took over. Thank you. Some follow-up questions. You said you and tracy were at the pool area. Were you alone? Yes, we were. What were you doing? We were talking. About? Business. Family. Quartermaines, they kind of go hand in hand. It’s kind of an odd place to discuss business, don’t you think?

[ Scoffs ] What tracy and I needed to speak about required privacy. Yo u said ned quartermainewas rushing toward you? Yeah, he was — he was walking very quickly. Yes. Did the two of you make any contact before he fell? Absolutely not. He didn’t even come remotely close to me. Why do you think tracy quartermaine would say otherwise? No, you don’t have to answer that. My client is not a mind reader. Fair enough. Why do you think tracy made that accusation?

[ Sighs ] Tracy and I are at odds. Family issues, I guess. Detective, there’s something you should see.

[ Recorder beeps ] I will be right back.

[ Sighs ] Talk to me. How are you doing? How am I doing? I mean, I’m — I’m fine. I’m just worried about ned. Me, too. Because from what you told me, he’s your best shot at making these insider trading charges go away. As requested, here’s the security camera footage from the metro court pool area. Hmm. Let’s take a look. Ned has sustained a tbi, a traumatic brain injury. When he fell, the impact of his brain against his skull caused his brain to swell. What is that exactly? We can see some physical damage on the scans, but we won’t know the extent of any cognitive damage until he regains consciousness. My dad is still out? Isn’t that bad? Not necessarily. The body often shuts down to devote all of its energy on the injury — the brain in particular. It will actually reroute neural pathways after an injury, but that takes time. So, this respite may actually assist in his healing.

[ Crying ] Okay, but what if ned doesn’t wake up tomorrow or the day after that?

[ Sniffles ] Well, the longer ned remains unconscious, the longer we go without a clear sense of how and where his brain has been affected.

[ Crying ] Mr. Quartermaine is also suffering from hypoxemia. Tracy: Which is? Just let him speak. Don’t you talk to me that way. Shh! Dr. Ashford, please continue. Hypoxemia means the oxygen level in mr. Quartermaine’s blood is low. This indicates that his brain was deprived from oxygen for a brief time.

[ Voice breaking ] Okay. Are you saying that my dad… may never wake up? Mason wants inside information on sonny and this pikeman. Mm-hmm. Well, good luck with that. Sonny doesn’t discuss his business with me. I mean, we share a child together. That’s it. And honestly, that’s the only reason he didn’t kill me years ago. No, sonny barely tolerates me. He certainly doesn’t trust me. Okay. Okay. Well, you’ll just have to figure out a different way to get the information.

[ Breathes sharply ] How, exactly? Ava, you’re really smart. You’ll — you’ll — you’ll figure it out. You can — you can listen to his conversations. You can go through his papers —

[ Chuckling ] Yeah, right. Because sonny just leaves incriminating documents tying him to arms dealers and paramilitary contractors just lying around. Okay, now you’re just — I mean, that’s about as likely as him having a conversation about it near enough that I could overhear it. You n do it. You can. And I-I know you can. You just got to think outside the box. Au stin, the feds have beenafter sonny for decades. They — they — they use actual undercover agents and surveillance equipment. And you’ve probably noticed that the guy is walking around a free man. How could I possibly do any better? Well, you — you know him. So you can do better because you know all of his vulnerabilities and his weaknesses and you know how to use them against him. Uh-huh. And what makes you think that? Because — because we share avery? Uh-huh. We may both love our daughter, but she was hardly conceived in a moment of mutual regard. Okay. But you still have access because of avery — you got to help me out here. You got to help you out here. Sonny is avery’s father. I’m not going to betray him like that. You should rethink that. Because… w-w-when mason talks about taking sonny down, he’s not just talking about sending him to prison. W– wait. Mason wants to kill sonny? All of avery’s life, right, I’m imagining that sonny’s made you walk this emotional tightrope and jump through these hoops. And — and when was the last time he tried to take avery away from you? Well, he did that a lot. But not — not — not lately. Okay, but what if he does again? M-maybe next week or next month or next year or next time he feels grumpy. Come on. Ava, wouldn’t your life just be, like, a little bit better if sonny were gone for good?


Is my dad in a coma? It’s too soon to tell. Oh, that’s what doctors say when they have no idea what’s going on.

[ Voice breaking ] Tj, can we see ned? Yes, he’s in the icu. One visitor at a time. Nurse sirtis. Uh… you can go first.

[ Breathes deeply ] Just tell daddy that we’re here, and we love him, and we’re waiting for him, okay? Mm-hmm. Right this way, mrs. Quartermaine.

[ Crying ] Okay.

[ Sighing ] I’m thinking about taking the job. Were you not just telling me how much safer you would be now that you’re not spying for michael? I’m not going to be spying. I’ll be protecting sonny. He doesn’t need your protection. I think he does, joss. Look, sonny’s business is changing. The people he’s dealing with are extremely dangerous. What else is new? No, this is different. Look, pikeman is massive. The scope of its resources and connections… they’re global. He has brick. Who’s based on the west coast. He can’t be with sonny day to day — I can. Why would you want to? Because sonny needs someone who’s going to have his back. Okay? Someone who’s not going to sell him out for more money. Someone who’s not going to cut and run when things get dangerous. Okay, someone like me. Why does it have to be you? Because I won’t be doing it for the money. I’ll be doing it for you. I can’t even think about the sec charges right now, zeke. No problem. That is why I am here. Look, when I pulled ned out of the pool, he wasn’t breathing. I felt like I was performing cpr forever. That — that is not good. Look, and I don’t mean to sound callous, but you are my client, and I’m always going to do what’s best for you. Okay. Alright. Fine. Just go ahead. Will tracy drop the accusation when she’s had a chance to cool down? Absolutely not. No. Tracy wants to neutralize me. And by “neutralize,” you mean what? It’s better you don’t know. Oh. Great. Something every attorney loves to hear. Look. Look. Tracy’s accusation…

[ Sighs ] …Is just a temporary nuisance, okay? Whatever the — the pcpd drag up, that’s going to show — that’s going to prove that I’m innocent. Eventually. Hopefully. But if you’re charged with attempted murder, the us attorney’s office will never accept your plea deal. Brook lynn: Chase! Oh, I’m so glad you’re here. Hey.

[ Sighs ] How — how’s your dad doing? Has he — has he woken up yet?

[ Sighs ] I am so sorry. Tracy: Detective! Oh, here we go. I trust your presence here means that drew cain is safely locked up in a jail cell? About that. I am here to see if, with time to reflect, you would like to amend your statement. Why would I want to do that? I know what I saw. I’m the only one that witnessed drew cain’s vicious attack on my son. Why would you think that I would want to change a word of that? Because… the metro court security camera caught the entire incident. Plain as day.


Well, it looks like dex is considering my offer. Josslyn: So, don’t even think of saying that helping sonny would help me. Dex: No, all I’m saying is I think I could do what michael is asking me — no, sorry, what michael is willing… mm. Joss doesn’t look happy. Josslyn: And don’t say… but I think dex can convince her. Dex: To what end? There’s no way dex is going to disappear. Not as long as he keeps looking at josslyn like that. We talked about this. I already decided I’m not leaving town, and my best option is to keep working for sonny. It’s in my best interest to keep him on top. Okay, and with michael involved… how is that remotely a good thing? Because michael is smart, okay? And he understands the business. He can’t advise sonny directly, but he can do it through me. I just hate that my family is putting you in this position. I made my choices, okay? My eyes have been wide open the whole time. Well, did anyone ever tell you that you make really bad decisions? I don’t know about that. Look where they’ve led me. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I do not want sonny dead. I mean, once upon a time, maybe. Why not? I will not deprive avery of her father. Okay — she loves him. With sonny out of the way, you get full custody. No. Stop it! You never have to worry about him… I will not be a party to killing sonny! …Ever taking your child away from you, ever again. Ava, I’m just trying to convince you of something that you already know to be true. You’re trying to manipulate me! No. That’s what you’re trying to do. I’m — and this may shock you, but I don’t take kindly to that sort of thing. I’m being honest with you. That’s what I’m doing. If you do this one thing —

[ Chuckles ] “This one thing.” You only want me to do it because if I cooperate, then mason will leave you alone. Oh, ava, please. Mason is never, ever, ever going to leave me alone. It’s like you refuse to believe how dangerous these people really are. Because I need context. I need names. I can’t give you their names. That should tell you everything you need to know about these people. Ava, believe it or not, I am trying to protect you. Why? Okay. Well, you’re not boring, are you, ava? You’re never boring, even when you’re at your worst. And when you’re at your best, you say mean things that make me want to hear you say more mean things. It’s true. You get me right here. It’s like the — the — the burn you get after a strong drink. Comparing me to cocktails. You trying to flatter me or something? Maybe. Partly, but not entirely. Ava, we can do this… if we do it together. You witnessed a traumatic event involving your son. Your first impressions may not have been accurate. In light of the security footage, would you like to rethink your official statement? Look, it all happened really fast. I was very upset. I thought my son was going to die. Spit it out, tracy. It…might have — he might have slipped and fell.

[ Breathes deeply ] Okay, just to be clear, drew cain was not the aggressor. Just like alexis wasn’t driving that car. It was an accident. Okay? Now, is olivia going to stay with ned all night? I’d like to see my son. Thank you. I know you cut my grandmother some slack. I’m just glad that we cleared it all up. I’m sure drew will be pleased to know that it’s over.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

[ Monitor beeping, respirator hissing ]

[ Voice breaking ] Can I touch him? You can hold his hand.

[ Sobs ]

[ Crying ] I’m here, ned. Just like I said I’d be.

[ Sniffles ] Your daughter’s here. Brook lynn. Your mother’s here, breathing fire on your behalf.

[ Chuckles ] We’re all here, just trying to hold it together for you. But you got to wake up.

[ Sniffles ] You got to wake up. I love you so much. Now, you’ve got to come back to us.

[ Sniffling ] No. You got to come back to me.

[ Sniffles ]

[ Sobbing ]


[ Police radio chatter in distance ] Mr. Cain. Detective chase just called. You’re free to go. So, my client

isn’t being charged? No. According to the witness, mr. Quartermaine’s fall was an accident. Detective chase wanted me to thank you for your cooperation and apologize for the inconvenience. Okay. Well, thank you very much, officer. I’m glad that, uh, this got cleared up. Well, I’m glad that turned out okay. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Me, too. I, uh… I wonder what got tracy to change her mind. I don’t like it. And I think that you’re both terrible for putting him in this position. But it’s his choice. I’ll do it. I’ll protect sonny.

[ Exhales deeply ] Okay. Thank you. I really believe this is the best way to keep everybody safe. Look, it’s not going to be easy. Pikeman is massive and dangerous. Yeah. That’s why it’s important for you to keep michael informed. This is a situation sonny has never been in before. And I just hope he doesn’t end up trusting the wrong people. Let me think about it. What’s there to think about? If you could just tell me who mason is working for — no. That’s not going to happen. You really expect me to do this without knowing who I’m doing it for? What I expect is for you to believe that whatever we’re doing, we’re doing for your own good. Oh, please.

[ Laughs ] No, it’s pretty obvious that my best interests are not your main concern. Okay. You know, um… when I found you with nikolas all [Clicks tongue] In the stables, I didn’t run away, right? I stayed. I helped you out. It’s time for you to return the favor. Oh. Oh, so that’s what this has all been leading up to — one big, fat quid pro quo? Maybe a little. But you do get to help yourself out in the process.

[ Indistinct conversations in distance ] You go. -I’ll be right here. -[ Sighs ] Nina: Olivia, I am so sorry that this is happening.

[ Cellphone chimes ] If there’s anything that I can do for you or your — the family… you’ve been so great with willow. And if I can repay you in — in any way, I — I can go get you some food.

On the next “General Hospital” —

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hello? Hey, Steph, still prepping for that Zoom meeting? Yeah, I just finished going over our proposal again and I think we’re in pretty good shape. You on your way? I’m actually not gonna be able to make it. Oh no. Why not? Is everything okay? I just have something I need to take care of. I’m sorry though. No worries.

I can, um, I can just drop by your place when I’m done and fill you in. I don’t know when I’m gonna be free, um, but I’ll let you know. I, yeah. Okay. I will talk to you later. Goodbye,

Sarah. Honey, will you. Relax. Of course, I’m gonna keep your secret. I am not gonna tell another living soul that you are pregnant with Ander’s baby. You betcha. Now you take care now, hun. Okay. Okay. Bye-Bye. Oh God. That girl has wound up tighter than a $2 watch. Hey Bonnie, you’re home. I didn’t know you were here.

I just got in this second. Oh my God. How I miss you? Oh, oh, I miss you. That was Chicago. Tell me everything.

Hey, bam. What’s this? Oh, just a major ad buy from Saxon’s department store. Excellent. Wow. That’s some bottom line. How’d you get ’em to fork over so much cash? Well, I happen to know Mr. Saxon from working at Basic Black and we always got along and I just turn on a little charm and he was putting my hands see.

Told you you’d be great at this job. Ain’t glad you didn’t quit. Yeah. Today’s been a really great day. Stress free. I think it’s because Gwen’s not around.

Gwen, did you order me room service?

You do. I know you. Oh, I should hope so. Since what happened in Phoenix changed the course of my life. Oh, right, Phoenix. I remember you now you’re agent Kyle Graham, of course. You and and Billy Reid were very cute together. Very Mr. And Mrs. Smith, any who? I’d love to stay in chat. That’s so fast, Mr. Stuck. You and I have unfinished business.

Do we? We do. And you’re not going anywhere until it’s finally settled.

Like Sam through the hour class. So are the days of our lives.

Did I do something to offend you? Do stolen jewels ring a bell? Um hmm. No, not really. Oh, oh, you mean when I swapped out that priceless emerald for a phony? Is that what this testosterone driven posturing is all about? Because really it was just a silly prank. Nothing to get riled up about. Riled up a silly prank.

You know? Your silly prank ruined everything for me. Okay. Okay. I’m sorry. Really? I am. I didn’t know that my little caper was going to. Poor your evil plans for world domination. Listen to me, you simpering idiot. It wasn’t about world domination. It was about me becoming very, very rich. You cost me a fortune not to mention my own freedom, and now I’m going to make you pay.

So where is. Gwen. Anyway, apparently she scored some exclusive interview with Dimitri Vaughn. Ner Ner. Yeah, I heard that guy is kind of a dirt bag. Yeah. Unfortunately Dirtbag sell, but hopefully it’ll be good for our numbers and he keeps her out of your hair police for today. That is true. Well, I should get back to work or you could take a break.

I was hoping we could spend a little time together thought You think we should keep things professional here at the office? Absolutely. Professionalism is very important, but I can’t stop thinking about last night and specifically like it’s you. Me neither. So maybe Hello? You too. Oh, hi. Am I interrupting?

No, not at all. Maggie. Hi. Nice to see you. Hi. How are you, Chloe? What brings you by? Um, okay. Well, I’ll get right to the point. I don’t know if you’ve heard I had to let Alex go. I did. And good for you. Well, it might be good for you as well, sander. Because I would like to offer you Alex’s job.

Oh, hey. Hey. What are you doing here? Well, I just wanted to, oh, is this a bad time, Ms. Chad here? No, uh, he’s not. Oh, okay. Well, I just wanted to come by and tell you the good news. Well, I would love to hear some good news. What is it? I am officially employed again. Oh my gosh. That’s great. Mm-hmm. I told you Maggie would take you bash.

She needed some time to cool down. Yeah, yeah, you’re right. And she did offer to rehire me, but I turned her down.

Hey, Abby.

Can’t believe it’s been a whole year since we lost you,

and it seems like yesterday we were together. Happy raising Thomas and Charlotte.

I’m just thinking about having a new baby.

I think about it all the time.

We would’ve been successful, but we’ve had a boy girl, her,

hello. We would’ve been Christ. We were trying to juggle two kids and a newborn baby.

I know that we would’ve loved every minute of it, though.

I can picture it, you know. I could picture exactly what our lives would be like.

Sometimes it seems so real.

Feels like I never lost you.

Julie, I startled you. No, God, nevermind. You want your privacy? I’ll come back later. Please stay.

So, uh, did Thomas and and Charlotte get off? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. It all worked out. Jack and Jennifer picked him up from the airport in Boston earlier. Oh, that’s great. They’ll have a lovely visit. Yeah, I hope so. I think they needed a change of scenery. Yeah. They’ve, they’ve been acting out a bit lately. I’m sure you noticed.

It’s my fault. Yeah. I should have. I didn’t talk to him, you know, and I know they know Subc consciously, and it’s the anniversary of their mother’s passing coming up. They feel it. You know, children always understand more than we give them credit for.

Abigail is watching over you, darling. I truly believe it. Yeah, I hope so.

I wonder what she would think about me and Stephanie. Wait, I don’t understand. You turned Maggie down. So how are you employed again? I took a job at Demara. What? My cousin Brady offered me a position at Basic Blank and I accepted. So you’re working for the competition? Mm-hmm. Wow. And, um, how does Maggie feel about that?

Let me get this straight. Sorry. You, you want me to work at Titan again? Well, I floated this idea before. Surely it can’t come as a complete surprise. What about Victor? He’d never approved and he’s barely spoken to me since I quit. It’s not up to Victor. The only person who needs to be on board with this decision is you so.

What do you say?

Isn’t my granddaughter the cutest? She’s adorable. Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute. Are you teaching Emily Poker? Well, yeah. You’re never too young to learn it’s math, which is what I tried to explain to Mimi and Rex, who weren’t too thrilled. I bet. So what’s going on with Sarah? What do you mean? Why on earth would you ask me about Sarah?

Well, she’s living in Chicago and she’s working with Rex, so I figured he must have mentioned her, right? Oh, yeah, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure. Um, actually, I, I saw her. Oh, how is she? Oh, she’s good. I mean, she’s the same. Exactly the same. Hasn’t changed a bitch. The same old, same old. Oh, is it hot in here? Oh, hotter than Billy goat with a blow torch attack.

Need some water?

What’s going on with you? What you mean? What’s going on with me? Nothing. Well, you seem to be a little nervous. Bonnie is, there’s something wrong. Please don’t hurt me. I will give you anything you want. All I want right now is revenge. Okay. Well, if I can’t change your mind, can I please say one last thing?

Make it quick. Thank you, GWE. Save me Gwenie. Come and help me please. Going on here. What does it look like? He’s trying to kill me for heaven sake. You let him go. This is none of your concern, Gwen. Actually, it is because Maddy is my best friend, Maddy. Yeah. Maddy, you’re not the only with an alias. Kyle, do you have any idea what your best friend here did to me?

No, and I don’t care. Now, are you gonna stop this nonsense or am I gonna phone the police when I don’t think you understand? It doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is this. Do you want to go back to prison or not?

So you are really not worried about how Maggie feels? Hell no. Or Victor? Nope. Nope. Hell no. Especially after the way they treated me. I mean, come on. If, if, if Uncle Vic wasn’t so dismissive with his personal decisions, both Brady and I would still be working at Titan. And if Auntie Mag is such a good CEO O I’m sure she won’t mind a little healthy competition, I guess.

Anyway, I just wanted to tell you the good news she probably get going before Chad shows up and finds us together. Don’t wanna piss off Chad. I don’t, I don’t think Chad’s showing up today. I’m pretty sure he is with Abigail. Yeah, Stephanie and, and, and I have been seeing each other for a while now. Yes.

Well, I like Stephanie. She’s a lovely person. She’s wonderful with your children, and you always seem happier when the two of you’re together. Well, I am. I still feel guilt. Guilty. You know, uh, being with someone who isn’t abbey, not always, sometimes today I do. I understand you love somebody as much as you liked Abigail, you’re always gonna feel her presence in your heart.

But I think Abigail would want you to make room in your heart or someone else, cuz Abigail would want you to be happy.

Yeah. She told me she wanted me to move on. What do you mean? Yeah. After we found out that Clyde was responsible for Abigail’s death, I came here. And I talked to her.

I know it sounds crazy, but she talked back to me. I swear to you, I saw her. I held her in my arms.

Well, that must have been comforting.

Yeah, it was.

Maybe it was just wishful thinking. You know, me telling myself what I wanted to hear, what I wanted myself to hear. Nothing is wrong with me. Nothing at all. Are you sure? Mm-hmm. Because, um, seem to be acting a little strange.

It’s just probably jet lag. Jet lag. Mm-hmm. You know, you drove Chicago and we’re in the same time zone. It’s true. Silly me.

Okay, sweetheart, I can tell something’s really upsetting you, so just talk to me. What’s going on.

You know what, what you,

you are my husband, obviously. Yeah, but you’re also an attorney. I. Uh huh So, so

now you’re my attorney, which means we have attorney code privilege. Bonnie, did you do something illegal? No. No, of course not. No. I just got the secret. I wanna tell. And if I don’t tell it, my tongue is gonna explode and I just love off somebody. All right. What is it? Sarah’s pregnant with Sander’s baby.

Um, my god, I don’t know. I won’t, uh, won’t Sarah be upset if, if you are home? I, well, well, I suppose she might be, but she knows I’m fond of you. Oh, listen, to be honest, there’s a part of me that is hoping that Sarah will forgive you and she’ll come back home someday. Yeah. Well, I don’t see that ever happening, but, and honestly, I’m not sure I’m ready to abandon this newspaper just yet.

Well, wait a minute. I thought you were already taking a step away because it was so awkward working with, you know, with Gwen. Am I wrong? No, you’re not wrong. It’s, I’ve been awkward as hell, but, huh. I dunno. Certain things about the job have improved recently.

Oh. Well, okay, you just take some time and think about it. Not too much time though. I do need to replace Alex sooner than later. And I really do hope it’s you. Of course. Oh, I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Wonderful. Chloe, it was so nice seeing you. Oh my goodness gracious. I see you too. Oh, listen.

Would you tell Parker that? I absolutely loved his birthday gift. He got me. Of course. I’ll tell him. Okay. So nice to see you. Oh, it’s so nice to see you. Think about it.

How is unexpected? Yeah. Well, Maggie obviously thinks very highly of you. I feel the same about her, but No, I mean, I’d be crazy to go back to work at time, wouldn’t I? Then why didn’t you just say No, I didn’t wanna be rude. Or maybe deep down, you actually want the job.

So what’s it going to be? Are you going to call a truce or am I going to call the police?

No, no need to call the police. I apologize, Mr. Stark. I shouldn’t have manhandled you. Oh, that’s okay. Normally I enjoy a good man handling. You’re right. It was too easy. Anywho, I have got to get to work. Guinevere, you are a lifesaver. Love you minutes.

Your best friend is, uh, yes, I know I, I know he’s a lot, but he has a good heart and he makes me laugh so,

Are you still willing to do the interview or, oh, um, of course. Brilliant. Okay. Well, I’ve, I’ve made a lunch reservation at the Bistro, so we could just head over. Actually, I was thinking, well, why not just do it here? Could be a lot more intimate.

Chad was being really vague about his plans, but I, I figured they had to be important if he was blowing off a client meeting and then it hit me. Today is the one year anniversary that’s Abigail’s death. Wow. So I’m sure he just needed some time to process that. Well, why wouldn’t he just say that? I guess because.

It’s just something he has to deal with on his own right. I mean, obviously I’m sure it’s still very painful for him. Mm. How could it not be? Right.

You know, one thing I did notice though, um, what, nevermind. Oh, Alex, what were you gonna say? Um,

he still wears his wedding ring. Yeah, he does. I think I haven’t noticed that too.

We, um, we haven’t talked about it, but I totally understand. I mean, when you love someone so much, It must be hard to let go.

Wow. You’re just so chill about all this. Just living in Abigail’s shadow. Nope, nope. Sorry. That’s not what I meant at all. That that came up very, very wrong. Um, I didn’t mean that you don’t like measure up at all because you do. Um, it’s just that you have to. Somehow, I don’t know. You have to share Chad with Abigail’s memory.

You’re a strong person, Stephanie. I know you can handle it. Chad’s really lucky to have you. You’re understanding, caring. You’re always there for him. You don’t pressure him about anything. Thank you. That was much more tactful, not only tact. That was kind and insightful. Must be the therapy. I don’t know that Dr.

Evans, Hey, she’s a genius. Yeah. Anyway. I, um, I really do hope that Chad’s okay. Yeah, me too. I know it seems impossible that you actually saw Abby, but who knows? What did Shakespeare ride in Hamlet? There are more things in heaven and earth than dreamt of in your philosophy. Maybe you did see her. I will never know that.

But I know one thing, whether you just imagined her or not, whether you just told yourself the things you wanted to hear or not. I know that she would want you to get on with your life and you know that too, don’t you?

Sometimes. Only sometimes other times I just, I’ve, I, um,

I just have this overwhelming feeling of guilt,

like I’m betraying her, you know what I mean? Well, maybe I just made up this vision of Abigail so I could give myself permission to be with Stephanie. Sleep long enough. It’s only been. A year since Chad stop, I have something to say and, and I want you to really hear me okay. There is no timetable for grief.

There is no right or wrong way to mourn, but one thing I know from living a long, long life is that guilt is corrosive. It will steal all of your happiness if you let it. So don’t you let it. You deserve to be loved. You deserve to have happiness, and not just for yourself, but for your children too. They need to see their father living a full life.

Yeah, you’re right. I see you’re still wearing your wedding ring. This is really none of my business. You can ignore anything I might say, but.

Do you think that wearing the ring is holding you back from moving on?

Yeah, maybe.

Maybe it, I just hadn’t been able to bring myself to take it off. I’m afraid that if I do, it’ll allow me

make it final and really let her go. My darling, she will never be gone. Abigail is always going to be with you in your heart and wearing a piece of jewelry, a little golden ring. It’s not gonna prove that to you. You don’t need it and you don’t have to prove it to anyone else in the world.

Another thing, the guilt that you feel, I think it’s because you are here. She’s not, it’s called survivor’s guilt,

but life is a gift. And we should treasure every single bit of it we get cuz it’s brief, it’s limited. It’s limited for all of us. So forgive yourself for finding love again, for wanting to move into the future. Forgive yourself. And be thankful for all the blessings you have and all the glorious joyous moments that are ahead of you.

Will you do that,

Mr. Vaughn Lona? I think that it’s best that we keep things strictly professional. Oh, I wasn’t suggesting otherwise. Well then why? It’s just that restaurants can be so crowded and noisy. I thought it might just be easier to do the interview here that we were not disturbed. Oh, right. Well, alright. I suppose you have a point.

Wonderful. Well then I will order us room service, my treat, of course. Oh, no, I can, no, I insist please. I think we might have gotten off on the wrong foot earlier, and I’d like to make it up to you fresh start. Of course, Mr. Von Lena, uh, as I said last night, please call me Dimitri. All right. Well, thank you in advance for lunch, Dimitri, and for the interview.

Hmm. Normally I, uh, I detest interviews. For some reason, I’m looking forward to this one. Something tells me that you and I are gonna get along

well, to be honest, I mean, God, part of me would just love to go back to Titan, I mean, Bro, not face to dream about being part of the family business and finally feeling like I belonged. I have to say, I mean, it would be so satisfying to go back and just rub it in Victor’s face showing that he made a mistake by not believing in me.

I could see why that would be satisfying. So I guess you’re taking the job

actually. I think I’m gonna turn it down. You are? Why? Well, as much as I enjoy spending time with Maggie, I enjoy spending time with you much more. Listen, we already live together and this job. Yeah, the job, right? I mean, I can’t abandon you to battle Gwen or by yourself. That wouldn’t be fair, would it? So what, you’re staying here for me?

Yeah, I guess I am.

How on earth could Sarah be pregnant with Xander’s baby? She left town months ago. Well, she was pregnant before she left. She just didn’t tell anybody. Why not? Isn’t it obvious? She thinks Sander is a dangerous criminal. She’s trying to protect her unborn child. Yeah, I guess I can see where she’s coming from.

I mean, he did hold you and Susan hostage. Mm-hmm. Which led to Susan’s death. She rest in peace. Well, if Sarah didn’t want anyone to know, why did she tell you? Well, I ran into her, bless her heart. It’s kinda hard to hide your pregnancy at this stage. So she tried to convince me that the father was Rex, which of course I didn’t believe, and then she finally confessed, but she begged me not to tell anyone her secret, but holy moral doesn.

It’s a huge of a secret for me to hold it. I just had to tell someone. Yeah. I understand Justin, this has to stay between us. No one, not even Maggie can know that she’s pregnant, who’s pregnant.

Hi Maggie. I didn’t know you were home. I just got back. So who’s pregnant? And why am I not allowed to know? Well, well, it’s not just you. No one can know. She wants to keep it a secret. She who? Mm-hmm. Mimi. Yes, Mimi is. She’s pregnant and she doesn’t want too many people know until she’s through her first trimester.

You know how that goes. Oh, yes. Of course. Of course. I won’t say a word. Thank you. Thank you. Well, that’s, that’s, that’s wonderful news though. No, you have to be thrilled. Oh, thrilled. If yes, the word yes. Now I have to admit a little jealous. Mm. I’d love to be a grandmother again. Oh yeah,

him. Sorry to interrupt. I just wanted to grab my paycheck.

Thanks, Xander. Are you busy or do you have time to talk about my next column? Busy. You’ll have to wait. Someone needs an answer from me. Air sap.

So that’s your definition of platonic. Interesting. Listen, Leo, can you please not mention this to Gwen? She hates me enough as it is. Girl, please. Gwen is so over that Scottish longhead has been for ages. As a matter of fact, she’s having lunch with a hot new hunky hun. Even as we speak, you know, most of our readers view you as this sort of James Bond type villain.

Who threatens to obliterate entire cities to get what he wanted. And I know that that’s, um, part of your story, but um, I would actually like to move beyond that. And, um, well, I’d like to learn more about the real Dimitri Vaughn Leischner. What would you like to know? Well, how about we start at the beginning.

What was your childhood like? My childhood. Well, I was an only child raised mainly by my mother, whom you’ve met, whom I love dearly, although I, she can be quite needy. You see, she went through a lot before I was born. And come to think of it, sometimes it felt like I was the adult in the relationship. Yes, I know what that’s like.

And, um, what about your, your father? Ah, yes, the venerable Oscar Ner. My father. My father, my father and I didn’t really have very much of a relationship because he was always off on business traveling. And when he was home, he, well, he was cold. And distant, not exactly what you would call a, a fatherly figure.

In fact, I would go as far as to say he may as well have been absent from my life altogether. Sounds like an awfully lonely childhood. Yes. Yes. I suppose it was. Of course I grew up with great wealth and privilege, and I am fully aware of how lucky I was,

but looking back, I, uh,

I would’ve traded all in for just a, a modicum of unconditional love,

if that even exists. I think it does.

Well then you’re less of a cynic than I am anyway. When you’re deprived of love, it starts to eat away at you and to cope with this deprivation, I think I developed a sort of a me against the world mentality. And to be honest with you, I don’t think I’ve ever been able to shake it. And I suppose that it might be that mentality that’s driven many of my, shall we say, less prudent life choices?

Ah, you mean, um, your choice to use a weapon of a mass destruction to bend world governments to your will? Uh, yes. Like that. Mm. Among others

in prison, you spend a lot of time by yourself alone with just your thoughts to keep you company and you start to wonder. How did I get here? How did I hit rock bottom,

and do you know what I realized? No, I’m very eager to hear. I realized that my need for power and money was all born from a lifelong desire just. Just to be loved.

Please feel free to scoff. I just, uh, I realize how wildly cliche that sounds, and I’m sure that now you think that I’m just some self-pitying narcissist. So if, uh, I don’t know. No, I don’t. Um, I don’t, um, actually, I, I completely get it.

I should be going. I’ve given you a lot of advice. I hope, I hope you take it to heart. I will. I appreciate everything you said. You are always. You’re so wise and caring. You really helped me, Julie. Good. Anytime you wanna talk. I’m, I’m always around. I,

I love you. She, I love you too, Julie.

I want you to know, Abby,

well, I saw you here that day and that what I said.

I will love you forever.

Oh, hello. Hi. I didn’t think I’d seen you today. I’m in. I just wanted to come by and, uh, apologize for missing the meeting today. Oh, it’s okay. The truth is, is I went to go see Abigail. That’s what I thought. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you Chad. You don’t owe me an apology.

How was the meeting? It was really good. Actually, we just finished up right before you got here. And the client wants to see the numbers you crunched. Hmm? I have them right here.

Got them right here.

Great.

Let’s get to work.

So are you still looking for that perfect love?

I suppose I am.

And um, is there anyone special? No. Perhaps, um, anyone you fancy?

Sadly, no.

Has there ever been?

Yes, yes. There was someone that I thought was perfect for me, but I kept getting hurt. So finally, as painful as it was, I had to walk away. I think you might know what that feels like. Sorry. Excuse me. Forgive me. I, uh, last night at the house, I overheard you speaking to my aunt and you said something about wanting to put someone named Xander behind you and starting fresh with someone new.

Oh yes, I suppose I did say that. I’m so sorry. I really shouldn’t have been dropping, but secretly I’m glad that I did because it made me realize that perhaps you and I have a connection. Of sorts.

Um, yes, um, it’s true. I mean, honestly, since hearing your story, I am. I think it’s quite uncanny how much we have in common. Really. It’s Imagine that Gwen’s on a date. I thought she was interviewing Dimitri Von Leischner. Oh, well she is, but you never know. One thing could lead to another. Well, I hope you’re right.

If she’s happy and moved on, then she’ll be less of a problem for Xander and me. You know, even if Gwen is out of the picture. What about Sarah Horton? What about Sarah? She and Xandr have been over for a while now. I mean, she doesn’t even live here anymore and yet her Specter always loomed large over Gwen’s relationship with Xandr.

Poor Gwen always playing second fiddle to Xander’s. Beloved Sarah, who’s to say that won’t happen to you too? That’s ridiculous. They’re, they’re done for good. Trust me. You say so.

Oh Lord. Do you think Maggie bought my story? Let’s hope. And you may wanna let Mimi know that she needs to get pregnant. A sap. That’s the only thing I can think of. This is all your fault anyway. My fault. Yes, your fault. I was a much better liar before I fell in love with you. Now I’m outta practice. Oh, well I guess I should take that as a compliment.

Yes, it’s a compliment and a curse cuz now I feel guilty for lying and I never used to feel guilty before. Oh my God. Did you see Maggie? She can’t wait to be a grandmother again. Well, she will be, won’t Sarah eventually have to tell Maggie? I mean, it’s not like she can keep this secret forever, especially from her own mother.

Oh, no, you’re right. It just, I think Sarah needs time to figure it out, you know? Well, she better do that soon, because I’m not sure how much longer you can last before you put it in Skywriting. I really not. You’re the only one I’m gonna tell. Okay. I try to do that.

All right. I have a client to meet. Okay. Then you’ll be here when I get back. Oh, God, yes. All right. And keep your mouth. Mm, yeah. Ow

you can do this bunny girl. You can keep Sarah’s pregnancy a secret. Easy peasy. You just gotta stay away from Xander.

[ Relaxing music ]

Steffy: Hope! You didn’t hear me?

Hope: Uh– uh. No– no, I just…

Steffy: Are you all right?

Ridge: Look at you. You seem just as excited about going to rome as we are.

Brooke: Well, of course, this is a pivotal moment in my daughter’s career.

Ridge: And my son’S.

Thomas: I’m glad you wanna come, brooke.

Brooke: Really?

Thomas: No, it’s– it’s awesome because you get to see just how connected and in sync your daughter and I are.

Wyatt: Did you know they were about to file for bankruptcy?

Liam: Uh, no, I hadn’t heard that.

Wyatt: I think we– we should think about an acquisition. You know, they’re– they’re small right now. They have only about five magazines. Price tag won’t be that high and– and– and their sensibility when it comes to their lifestyle coverage completely aligns with ours. I think it would be a seamless takeover. Thoughts?

Liam: Yeah, no, for sure.

Wyatt: Or I mean, we could just be good samaritans and blow the building up, you know. Save on legal fees.

Liam: Yeah, that sounds good.

Wyatt: Liam!

Liam: What?

Wyatt: I just said blow up the building.

Liam: Really?

Wyatt: Where are you right now? I’m trying to get some work done.

Liam: I’m sorry, I’m sorry, you know, I’m just– I’m still thinking about hope and thomas.

Ridge: You know what, brooke? I think you going to rome actually makes a lot of sense. Not just because your daughter’s line is being showcased, but because you’re a big part of this company.

Brooke: Oh. Well, it’s nice to be appreciated.

Ridge: Well…

Carter: And not just in this room. Been speaking to potential buyers and suppliers and they’re all asking for interviews and meetings with you.

Ridge: Really? I guess you’re going.

Brooke: Oh, thank you, carter.

Liam: I’m sorry, I just– I know– I know I’m not the best at focusing now.

Wyatt: No, I– I– I get it. I– I guess I was just hoping to redirect your thoughts, you know, distract you a little bit. I didn’t actually expect it to work.

Liam: I mean, I am doing everything I can to not let my concern about hope, send me into a spiral. I just, what– what am I supposed to do? This trip’s killing me, man.

Wyatt: I don’t– I don’t blame you, okay? You have every reason to worry about hope and thomas going to rome right now.

Steffy: Is everything okay?

Hope: Yeah, I’m fine.

Steffy: Are you sure? You good?

Hope: I appreciate your concern, but everything is under control.

Steffy: That’s a weird thing to say, everything’s under control. Let me guess. Whatever this is, it has something to do with my brother. This vibe I’m sensing, it has something to do with thomas, doesn’t it?

Your hair is damaged,

Carter: Okay, so let’s go down this list, right? We have the leaf, the men’s collection and brooke’s bedroom. Come on, it’s no wonder why they’re asking if you’re making the trip to italy.

Ridge: The legendary brooke logan, everybody.

Brooke: Oh.

Thomas: We are lucky to have you.

Brooke: Oh, well, thank you, thomas.

Thomas: You’re welcome.

Carter: So, is it official? Can I go and set up meetings and interviews for you?

Brooke: Okay. But just a few. I want the focus to be on hope.

Carter: Got it.

Ridge: I’m glad you’re coming.

Brooke: Yeah, me too.

Thomas: You know, I– I do wonder… you think mom’s gonna feel weird about you two being in rome together.

Wyatt: Not only is rome one of the most beautiful cities in the world, it’s also one of the most romantic, right? They’re all about amore. The whole country is. I mean, I don’t have to tell you– you– you, you’ve been there, you, you got married to hope in puglia.

Liam: Yeah, I know. But those are not the same thing. One is two people madly in love at a destination wedding and the other is business partners at a press event, for god’s sake.

Wyatt: Right, and one of those business partners has been known to be obsessed with the other one. The other one just so happening to be your wife. And they’re about to be alone in fabulous rome of all places.

Liam: I’m curious to know how you think this is helping.

Wyatt: I’m empathizing with you.

Liam: Stop empathizing.

Wyatt: All right, fine, I’m bad at it. Liam, you cannot be more concerned about this situation. Thomas is a master manipulator. He’s good at it because he’s had a lot of practice doing it, okay? He– he knows how to get hope to feel safe around him. He knows how to get her to let her guard down around him. Hell, even defend him for god knows why. And then he does something awful. You have to do something. You can’t let this trip happen.

Liam: How?

Wyatt: I don’t know.

Liam: Exactly.

Wyatt: But liam, maybe you can find a way to keep thomas from going, right? Then– then rome wouldn’t be a problem anymore. The problem here is– is thomas, right? Not your wife.

Hope: Thomas? And why would you bring him up?

Steffy: You know why. The moments I’ve witnessed between you and thomas, I’ve been very clear about my concerns.

Hope: And I’ve told you that there is no reason to be concerned.

Steffy: Good because thomas is doing a remarkable job turning his life around. He’s re-channeling his negative energy into creativity. I love that he’s working hard on himself. He’s really coming into his own. I love that. I just don’t want to see him backslide.

Hope: Thomas has reinvented himself. I am very proud of him.

Steffy: Yeah, you’ve reaped the benefits of that big change. He’s dedicated to reviving hope for the future.

Hope: And I’m very grateful for that.

Steffy: Good. Now, you and thomas are jetting off to rome together and we all know how liam feels about that. The question is, how do you feel about it? Head & shoulders is launching something huge.

Ridge: Well, this is a business trip and your mother understands that.

Thomas: No, I– I’m, I wasn’t trying to make it a deal. It’s just– just a thought.

Brooke: That’s understandable considering our history.

Thomas: Yeah. And it sounds like some of that history has resurfaced.

Brooke: You heard?

Thomas: About things kind of falling out between you and my mom? Yeah.

Brooke: Yeah. Well, it turns out that we don’t have the same perspective on what a friendship is.

Thomas: Yeah. It’s a– it’s a shame honestly because, uh, you know, your renewed friendship, it kind of brought peace and stability to our families.

Ridge: It did, it was nice.

Thomas: Yeah. I guess that’s, uh, it’s up to hope and me to keep that going.

Brooke: Uh, no, I mean, you don’t have to feel responsible for holding the families together. We’re all adults. We can do it ourselves.

Thomas: Sure. We can always just set an example though, right? Anyway, um, speaking of hope, I do have to speak to her about a few designs. Do you need me for anything?

Ridge: No, you go ahead. So, what was that? What was that look? You don’t think there’s something going on between hope and thomas, do you?

Wyatt: And you– you hit the jackpot when you convinced hope to marry you.

Liam: I know.

Wyatt: And I mean, she’s beautiful inside and out. She’s kind, compassionate, loyal–

Liam: Okay, relax.

Wyatt: I’m just saying that she’s fully committed to you and your family, okay? I mean, it wouldn’t even occur to hope to– to be unfaithful. She’s different than brooke.

Liam: You talking smack about my mother-in-law, dude?

Wyatt: No, I’m not saying anything bad about brooke. I’m just making an observation about her past. Look hope was– was surrounded by all that drama in her life. She probably made a conscious decision to do the complete opposite with hers. I’m just– I’m just saying that you don’t have anything to worry about with hope and thomas. Or hope or any other guy for that matter.

Liam: I know– I know that. I just still hate how much time they’re having to spend together, especially with this trip to italy coming up. Like, I– I– I’m sorry, I’m just, like, not capable of– of pretending thomas hasn’t done all the stuff he’s done in the past.

Wyatt: And you shouldn’T. I wouldn’T. I mean, just because thomas is going around saying, “I’m a changed man,” over and over and over again, doesn’t exactly make it true.

Liam: Yeah. Except everyone believes it, including my wife.

Wyatt: Well, she has to. At least until this new collection is off the ground, right? Who knows, maybe after she– she’ll have a major reassessment in life, right? She’ll– she’ll find a new lead designer after the pressure of survival is off.

Liam: Hm. Yeah. I mean, that would be ideal. I– I– I, you know, I definitely believe that– that thomas is the problem and– and– and he always has been. I just wish I could keep him away from hope.

Hope: How do I feel about thomas coming to the preview? I think he should be there. Absolutely. He’s devoted every minute to hope for the future and he’s a great leader. He’s had a good attitude. He deserves to have this moment. I mean, we deserve to have it. We’re a team.

Steffy: Have you shared that with liam?

Hope: Yes because I’m open and honest with my husband.

Steffy: I can’t imagine liam feels good about you and thomas working together indefinitely.

Hope: Well, does finn tell you how to run forrester?

Steffy: No.

Hope: Liam doesn’t tell me how to run my line. And right now, thomas is the best fit as a designer. So look, it’s all fine, steffy. Liam and I, we talk, we’re in a good place, and like I said, everything’s under control.

Steffy: I hope so.

Thomas: Is everything okay in here?

Hope: Great.

Thomas: Okay, ’cause it kind of feels like I walked in on something.

Steffy: Hope and I were just talking about your trip to rome. How happy she is that you’re gonna be there with her. Hmmm! Twix with cookie and cookie dough?

Brooke: Hm.

Ridge: You wanna try something for me?

Brooke: Hm?

Ridge: Let’s not worry about hope and thomas.

Brooke: Mm-hmm. They’ve changed, they’ve worked through it. Thomas is a different person. I’ve seen it. You’ve seen it and hope, she’s welcomed him back with open arms.

Brooke: I just want things to work out for both their sakes.

Ridge: All right, good. Let’s focus on that. Let’s take this show on the road all the way to rome. What do you say?

[ Brooke chuckling ]

Brooke: You know, I have a good feeling about this trip. It’s gonna be a game changer, for all of us. Just really looking forward to being alone with you.

Wyatt: I feel you, bro. I mean, you are– you are absolutely right not trusting thomas.  I mean, if you let your guard down, even for a second, it’s gonna be a huge mistake.

Liam: [ Scoffing ] Also… also, why does he have to be the only designer in L.A. That– that apparently can interpret hope’s vision?

Wyatt: Like I have no idea. I don’t buy it.

Liam: Yeah. Well, try telling hope that.

Wyatt: Maybe you should go too, to rome? Hm?

Liam: Listen, the– the thought crossed my mind, but I don’t wanna be that guy tagging along on his wife’s business trip. What? Like keeping tabs. Also, I kind of don’t want a front row seat to the hope and thomas show. Singing each other’s praises, clasping hands, taking a bow together like blegh.

Wyatt: That does sound nauseating. Bottom line is you have to trust hope, you have to trust your wife, all right? The last thing you wanna do is– is make her defensive or– or accuse her of something or assume anything. You don’t want to create any kind of issue whatsoever between you and her. Especially when she’s gonna go to rome with thomas.

Thomas: I am so excited about this fashion preview and I want to thank you so much for inviting me.

Hope: Well, you’re the lead designer, of course, you’re a part of it. I mean, you’ve done more work on it than anyone else.

Thomas: Except you.

Hope: Teamwork…

Thomas: Makes the dream work, yeah. Um, honestly, it’s– I think that this– this fashion preview and the press event, it’s gonna reposition hope for the future. You know, not just in a place at the forefront of the fashion industry, which it will be, but also as a way to make positive changes in the world.

Steffy: Both of you have worked very hard on the line for weeks now.

Thomas: More like months.

Steffy: Okay, months. And it needs to pay off and I won’t let anything or anyone get in the way of relaunching the line.

Thomas: Okay. Well, I can hear what you’re oh so nicely not saying. And you don’t have to worry. Hope and I know this is– this trip is just about business. Nothing else, right?

Hope: Right.

Steffy: Great. Well, I’m gonna go and get ready for rome.

Thomas: Okay. Bye. Oh, okay. Hey, um, don’t worry about my sister, right? She’s just being bossy and her being the boss actually makes it that much worse.

Hope: Yeah. Well, I’m used to steffy.

Thomas: Okay. Well, then don’t worry about liam. Look, I know that he is frustrated with us working together, but that’s coming from a place of him wanting you to be successful and loving you, right? And so, it’s okay what– the way we need to be successful is to work together and to go to rome together, right? So, let’s do that because it’s strictly about business and nothing else.

Hope: Yep.

Thomas: All right. Now, my sister, my dad, your mom, who, by the way, is going on the trip, you know that?

Hope: Yes, she told me.

Thomas: Liam, none of them, have anything to worry about. Tell me you believe that.

Hope: Yes, I believe you, thomas. I trust you.

Thomas: Okay. Well, I do have something I wanted to show you that I’ve been brainstorming.

Hope: Oh, okay.

Thomas: Um, it is something that I wanted to bring out the– the romance and the sex appeal of rome, right? It needs to be sort of this ancient idea…

[ Hope’s heart thumping ]

Thomas: You know, something subliminal just below the surface waiting to be seen.

Recap written by Suzanne

Carly and Josslyn were shocked when Michael asked Dex to continue working for Sonny and gather information about Pikeman. Carly revealed that the idea was hers, not Michael’s. Dex spoke to Josslyn privately and explained that Sonny needed his protection against Pikeman, convincing her to understand.

At the hospital, Tracy accused Drew of attacking Ned, leading to a confrontation. Chase arrived and took Drew to the police station for questioning. Drew urged Zeke to make the incident disappear, fearing complications with the SEC investigation.

Nina wanted to spend time alone with Sonny but received a call from Brook Lynn about Ned’s condition. They went to the hospital, where Ned was stable but unconscious. Tracy falsely claimed that Drew had tried to kill Ned. T.J. diagnosed Ned with a traumatic brain injury, leaving Olivia devastated.

Chase reviewed security footage, confirming Tracy’s account. Tracy later recanted, admitting it was an accident. In Ned’s room, Olivia and Brook Lynn visited him. Nina comforted Olivia while Chase received a mysterious text.

Austin pressured Ava to help take down Sonny, but she refused, citing her commitment to Avery. Their argument revealed a strange connection between them. Austin asked Ava to consider his request but refused to disclose who he was working for.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Nikki: Your assistant told me you were covering for sharon.

Nick: Yeah. I’m just checking on a few things and I’m gonna get the staff up to speed, then I’m gonna head out to the ranch and check on sharon and faith.

Nikki: Have you calmed down since you went at it with your father?

Nick: Went at it, mom? Hardly. I’m just sick of dad’s fixation with sally. Not with cameron in town and making all these threats. Right now, sharon’s making sure that faith gets out of town herself and I think it’s breaking sharon’s heart.

Nikki: Honey, you really need to do something about that hand. It could be broken.

Nick: Will you leave me alone about my hand, mom?

[ Nick sighs ]

[ Cameron groans ]

Cameron: It– it’s kind of sweet how protective you are of your ex-wife. A little sad because she no longer wants or loves you, but super sweet.

Nick: You are gonna stay away from sharon and faith, and you will be gone by the morning

Cameron: Or what?

Nick: You don’t wanna find out.

[ Cameron chuckles ]

Abby: Oh, my gosh. Did you see dominic with that little hand drum?

Devon: I did.

[ Abby laughing ] It’s actually starting to sound like music.

Abby: Almost. Yeah. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Devon: Did you see that picture that tucker sent earlier of dominic in class waving his little wand around, trying out conducting? It’s the cutest thing in the world.

Abby: So cute. I think we might be a little bit biased though.

Devon: Oh, well. Definitely biased for sure.

Abby: I don’t know, I just, I can’t stop wondering.

Devon: Hm.

Abby: Tucker hasn’t missed a single music class and that is not easy on the eardrums. I mean, is he really just trying to prove to our family that he wants to be a part of all of this? Or is this some sort of angle that he’s using? Look, I know. I know it feels like I’m being negative and I should just be grateful that he’s doting on his grandson, but.

Devon: I know. He’s– he’s tucker and he is not the most trustworthy guy in the world.

Abby: Especially where my mom is concerned.

Devon: Yeah. Well, maybe it’s time that I put my plan into action.

Ashley: Right?

Tucker: Right.

Ashley: Cheers to us.

Tucker: Yes.

Ashley: Hmm. We have to tell abby and devon about our engagement before they hear about it from somebody else, okay?

Tucker: Okay. How about, “hey, abby and devon, we’re engaged. For real this time.”

Ashley: They’re not gonna be happy about it.

Tucker: Who cares?

Ashley: Well, I care. They were very upset when they found out you were moving in with me. Remember that?

[ Phone chiming ] Oh.

Tucker: Ah! Speak of the devil.

Ashley: Wow.

Tucker: Talk about timing.

Ashley: “Society in 30. Early dinner with devon and me. My treat.” Is that what you got?

Tucker: That’s what I got.

Ashley: Oh.

Tucker: That forces the issue, doesn’t it?

Ashley: Yes. Do we accept?

Tucker: What do we have to lose?

Ashley: The timing is interesting though, don’t you think? Is this a coincidence?

Tucker: It could be that they found out about the engagement and wanna stop the wedding. But it’s not up to them, is it?

Ashley: I can’t take any more fighting, honestly. There’s so much on my plate with this jack and diane thing. I can’t take it.

Tucker: Well, okay. What are you gonna do if they do object? You gonna put the wedding on hold indefinitely?

Jack: Hmm. A preemptive promotion, huh?

Diane: Well, you can’t deny that kicking me up the corporate ladder would send a powerful message to ashley and tucker.

Jack: It might also set off world war iii.

Diane: Well, your sister is to blame for that. What? Threatening to oust you from jabot as long as I’m in the picture?

Jack: Have you given any thought to what position might be suitable?

Diane: Well, my number one requirement is I wanna work closely with my fiancé.

Jack: Ooh, I like that.

Diane: Hmm. But since you asked, I understand that our chief talent officer is set to retire at the end of the month.

Jack: Ha! That’s right. Brenda is retiring. Any key hires go through her desk.

Diane: Yes. It’s a key position. And I know that hr has been interviewing possible candidates, but they’ve yet to fill the position. I would like to throw my hat in the ring if you think that–

Jack: You had me at your fiancé. And yeah, the more I think about it, the more that’s a perfect job for you. I can’t think of anyone shrewder at reading people.

Diane: So you’ll recommend me?

Jack: After everything you have been through in the last few months, feeling like you had no future, I want you to dream big. And yes, I can make this happen.

Diane: Good. Hmm.

Summer: Thanks for meeting me.

Daniel: Uh, how bad did it get after kyle saw mom in the hotel room? I mean, I stayed with her for a little while after I was half expecting to hear sirens and have a swat team show up at the door.

Summer: Well, keep listening.

Daniel: Are you saying kyle turned her in?

Summer: He found out that I knew where she was all this time and that I didn’t say anything.

Daniel: Oh, god. Summer, I’m sorry. I didn’t know.

Summer: I don’t know how we come back from this, but honestly, the only thing that I could think about in that moment was saving mom. So she and I did the only thing that we could.

Chance: All right. Hotel security’s gonna pull the surveillance footage for me.

Kyle: Oh, it’s not like they’ll find anything. Phyllis knows all about cameras and how to avoid ’em. It’s not like she was on her own either.

Chance: You know that’s twice now, man. You’ve come pretty close to incriminating your wife. Is there something you wanna tell me?

Kyle: I hate this. That’s what I wanna tell you.

Chance: Yeah, you’re in a, uh, tough spot, man. I get it.

Kyle: Okay. If there was any other way, but the truth has to come out. Summer has known where phyllis was for weeks. I can only assume she helped her escape. If your moderate to severe crohn’s disease

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by… -you got this buddy.

-During an asthma attack,

Ashley: We can’t be sure if abby and devon even know that we’re engaged, so let’s just cross that bridge when we get to it.

Tucker: Let’S. Very reasonable.

Ashley: Yeah. Then again, knowing abby, if she knew, she would definitely voice her opinion because she’s not shy, if you haven’t noticed.

Tucker: I have. So, you think this is just a coincidence? Just a friendly invitation for the four of us to get together?

Ashley: Maybe. We had a nice time when the four of us ended up at neil’s lounge, right? Wasn’t that kind of okay? Wasn’t it, right? It sounds like fun, maybe, to do this.

Tucker: Hey, and I love fun things, man. I love ’em a lot more than things that aren’t fun.

Ashley: Me too.

Tucker: I know.

Ashley: Okay. Here we go. Oh, “we…”

Tucker: “We–”

Ashley: “…Would be delighted.”

Tucker: “We’d be delighted.” Ugh! That’s brilliant.

Ashley: Mm-hmm.

Tucker: You know, it’s possible they won’t believe a word of it, or at least they’ll be suspicious.

Ashley: Yeah. Or both. Because we did tell them about, you know, the fact that we were considering a fake engagement purely for shock value.

Tucker: Yeah.

Ashley: I think the best thing to do is just be open and honest about both motives, right?

Tucker: Mm-hmm.

Ashley: You know that us being married just strengthens us in case diane becomes a problem at jabot. Although that has to be private information, you can’t tell anybody.

Tucker: Devil’s advocate though. Are we being, uh, unfair to abby by putting her in the middle of all this and making her keep up our pretense with the rest of the family?

Ashley: Honestly, she’s gonna wind up there anyway if diane getting kicked out of jabot becomes an issue with the board. Thankfully, my daughter’s very adept at straddling the fence because she’s both an abbott and a newman. But you know what? Honestly, she’s very much her own person, so she’s not gonna just blindly follow my lead. I guess tonight, we’re gonna find out whether or not I have her support, huh?

Tucker: Yes, we are.

Ashley: Okay. Fingers crossed.

Tucker: Fingers crossed.

Devon: All right. Louise is all settled in with dominic.

Abby: Excellent.

Devon: Yeah. Um, hey, you know that the original plan was just for me to spend one-on-one time with tucker to find out where his head’s at with your mom, right?

Abby: Yeah, but it won’t hurt to have some backup, right? I mean, you shouldn’t have to subject yourself to that all alone.

Devon: No. I mean, it’s not torture to hang out with the guy. He’s got a couple good qualities.

Abby: Okay. If you say so.

Devon: It’s true. The hard part comes when he shows his true colors and then you have to question everything he says or does.

Abby: Yes, that part would be torture, having to second guess everything your father says. But tonight, you won’t have to be doing it alone. I will be there. You will have a second pair of eyes and ears to zero in on tucker. We won’t let him slip anything past us.

Daniel: So mom’s a fugitive again out there racking up more crimes. What the hell is wrong with her?

Summer: She offered to turn herself in to save my marriage, but I told her no.

Daniel: Why would you do that?

Summer: Because she needs more time to figure this out.

Daniel: Summer, that was a mistake. We need to be handling this out in the open, not encouraging her to run and hide from the cops. I mean, it’s just making things worse for all of us.

Summer: I wasn’t about to let her sacrifice her freedom for my– chance.

Daniel: Chance at what?

Chance: I’m done playing games. Where’s phyllis?

Nick: Sorry, mom. I– I don’t mean to snap at you. I’m not upset with you. I’m just frustrated.

Nikki: It’s okay. So, did punching the wall solve anything?

Nick: You know, I think you’ve asked me that like a hundred times since I was six.

Nikki: And I’ll keep asking you that until you give me the right answer.

Nick: I don’t know. I don’t know if punching the wall solved anything, but it may have bought us some time.

Nikki: Is there an update? Is cameron still in town?

Nick: I haven’t heard anything, mom, so I have to assume he is still here.

Nikki: And you will let the police and your father’s security team deal with it, right?

Nick: Yeah. Whatever works.

Nikki: Darling, I understand that you’re worried. You wanna protect your family, but please don’t forget how dangerous it got last time.

Nick: Mom–

Nikki: Cameron kirsten is an animal. He needs to be handled by professionals. If he can hurt you, he will, and he will be trying to do major damage.

Cameron: Genoa city P.D.? I’d like to report an assault. Around here, we like to keep things simple and honest.

Ashley: You’re very relaxed.

Tucker: I’m very relaxed.

Ashley: They’re here.

Tucker: Uh-oh.

Abby: Hi. Oh, thank you.

Tucker: Hi. How you doing?

Abby: Hi. How are you?

Devon: Hey, you two.

Abby: Mom!

Devon: What’s going on?

Tucker: Hey, son. How’re you?

Abby: You look beautiful.

Ashley: Oh, my gosh.

Abby: Hi.

Devon: Hi, ashley. How are you?

Ashley: Good. Really good to see you.

Devon: You look beautiful.

Ashley: Oh, thank you.

Abby: Thank you.

Devon: Yeah.

Ashley: Woo!

Abby: Woo! Well, um, thank you for sending that picture of dominic at his music class.

Tucker: Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Devon: Boy’s a natural

Tucker: Yeah. And not only at the drums. Did you see the footage of him conducting?

Abby: I loved it. Yeah.

Tucker: He’s a natural born leader, so it’s in the genes.

Ashley: Right. Yeah.

[ All laughing ]

Abby: Oh, well, um, let me just tell you, the chef has outdone herself this evening. Um, there is a duck and scallop special that is out of this world.

Tucker: A duck and scallop together special. So it’s like a duck stuff– stuffed with scallops?

Abby: Or separately, you know. However you like it.

Tucker: Okay.

Devon: Should we get wine for the table or you guys want cocktails? What do you think?

Tucker: Yes.

Abby: Oh, why limit ourselves?

Devon: That’s why I love you.

Abby: Ooh.

Ashley: Okay. Stop. Anyway, we were both so happy that you invited us now because we have such great news.

Devon: Really?

Ashley: Yeah.

Abby: Mm-hmm.

Ashley: We’re getting married.

[ Tucker chuckling nervously ]

Tucker: Don’t everyone talk at once.

Devon: Yeah. No. I– I don’t know if we believe you, that’s all.

[ Laughing ]

Abby: I mean, is– is this real or is this for–

Tucker: It’s–

Abby: Diane and uncle jack’s benefit?

Tucker: It’s very real. And the wedding is going to happen very soon.

Ashley: Yeah.

Diane: How about to new opportunities?

Jack: How about to our new life together with lots of opportunities?

Diane: Hmm. No matter what ashley says.

[ Both laughing ]

Kyle: Where’s summer? Is she here? I need to talk to her.

Jack: No, I haven’t seen her.

Diane: Neither have I.

Jack: Hey, what’s wrong? What’s going on?

Kyle: I can handle it.

Jack: Kyle! Kyle! You can’t expect us to sit back when you’re this upset. What’s going on?

Diane: Yeah, we’re here for you. What is it?

Kyle: Okay. I wish I didn’t have to tell you this, but I can’t keep it to myself any longer.

Daniel: I have no idea where our mother is.

Chance: You sure about that?

Daniel: You wanna hook me up to a lie detector?

Chance: What about you?

Summer: I don’t know where she is either.

Chance: Okay. Well, I know she’s been laying low at the athletic club. She’s not there anymore. And I bet you’re the one that hustled her outta there. It’s a big mistake, summer.

Summer: Daniel, will you give me and chance some privacy?

Daniel: No. No, I don’t think I wanna do that. We agreed that we were in this together, remember?

Summer: Look, I don’t wanna drag you any deeper into this. Please.

Daniel: Listen to her. Give her a fair shake.

Chance: As long as she’s honest.

Daniel: Call me.

Summer: I really thought you were on my side there for a second.

Chance: No, I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, but now I know you’ve been lying to me this whole time. We had an agreement. You knew that I would be as fair as the law would allow.

Summer: That’s the catch though, right? “As the law would allow.” I don’t regret any of my actions. Stark forced my mom to do everything that she did, but there– there’s no way to prove it because he is dead now. Chance, she’s in an impossible position. How can the law help her now?

Chance: There is always a way.

Summer: How? Tell me.

Chance: Summer, I can’t do anything if you don’t tell me the truth. We were supposed to be helping each other, all right? We had a relationship built on trust and right now, you don’t trust me and I sure as hell don’t trust you. Ultomiris is for adults with generalized myasthenia gravis

Summer: Once kyle found us, mom knew that she wasn’t safe anymore and she took off the minute that he left. She could be anywhere by now.

Chance: Summer, by refusing to cooperate, you know you’re making this so much harder on phyllis and yourself? You do realize I could arrest you right now, right? Yeah. False statements, obstruction, aiding and abetting a murder suspect.

Summer: Do what you have to do, but I still can’t tell you where my mom is because I don’t know.

Chance: [ Chuckling ] You are playing a dangerous game right now.

Summer: This is not a game to me. You wanna know where she is? Give me a guarantee that she won’t be arrested.

Chance: I can’t do that. Especially now that you’ve admitted you know more than what you’re saying. You’re taking a big risk withholding information like this, I hope you know that.

[ Phone ringing ] Chancellor. Yeah. Thanks. Um, I’m on it.

Summer: Was that about my mom?

Chance: You really expect me to tell you after you’ve given me nothing?

Kyle: Phyllis has been hiding out in a suite at the athletic club.

Diane: What?

Jack: I’m calling the police right now.

Kyle: No, I already did. Chance and I went there. She’s gone.

Diane: How did you know where she was?

Kyle: Summer led me right to her.

Jack: Wait. Summer knew where she was?

Kyle: Has for a while.

Diane: Are you serious?

Jack: She has been lying to us this whole time?

Kyle: She begged me not to tell anybody, but I’m not giving phyllis a free pass. This has to end.

Diane: Yes, it does.

Kyle: Summer has been betraying all of us for weeks. Summer not only knew phyllis was alive, she’s known where she was long before any of us found out.

[ Diane scoffing ]

Abby: How are we supposed to know that this is real? Because it– it feels fake. I mean, are we just supposed to take his word for it?

Devon: Yeah. ‘Cause we’ve been through this before too. And you– you know that marriage is a sacred thing, right?

Tucker: Yes. Of course, I know that. And I’m making a lifelong commitment.

Abby: Hmm. Yeah. Well, meanwhile, my mom is just sticking it to diane.

Ashley: Okay. Just hold on a second, abby. All right? As tucker said, there are real, real feelings here.

Abby: Oh, yeah. Like vindictiveness, hatred, irrational fear. Those are all real feelings. But this is really about diane, right?

Tucker: Well, your mother is right to have her suspicions about diane’s motives.

Ashley: Yes, I am. I’m very right. She’s a danger to our family and to our family’s company.

Devon: How is she dangerous? She’s on trial for murder, right?

Tucker: You guys didn’t hear?

Ashley: Oh, boy.

Devon: Hear what?

Abby: Hear what?

[ Tucker laughing ]

Ashley: Phyllis faked her death. She did.

Devon: What?

Ashley: She faked her death and she’s still somewhere, I don’t know, wandering around.

Tucker: No one knows where. And the police have proof that she’s alive and so they’ve dropped the charges against diane.

Ashley: Yeah.

Devon: What are you talking about?

Abby: Wait, are– are you serious right now?

Devon: There’s no way that happened.

Ashley: Yes, it happened. I mean, it’s fantastic that phyllis is alive, obviously, but now, diane is so full of herself. I mean, jack doesn’t think she can do anything wrong, so she’s more of a threat than ever before.

Chance: You don’t hear too well, do you?

Nick: Excuse me?

Chance: Nick, I told you not to take matters into your own hands when it came to kirsten. I thought you knew how important that was.

Nick: What the hell are you talking about?

Chance: Did you go to this guy’s hotel room, nick?

Nick: Yes, chance. I did. To talk to him.

Chance: There wasn’t an altercation?

Nick: What are you getting at?

Chance: Let me spell it out for you, man. Cameron kirsten has filed a complaint. He would like to press charges against you for battery.

[]

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue.

Devon: Huh. So, now that diane has been proven innocent, you guys just want torment her?

Ashley: I’m trying to protect my family’s company, devon.

Abby: That’s a terrible reason to plan a wedding.

Tucker: Ashley and I know better than either of you what diane is capable of, so.

Ashley: Exactly. She wormed her way into a job at jabot when nobody wanted to hire her. I know what she’s gonna do next. She’s gonna convince my brother to bring her on somewhere in senior management, and she will use that position to wreak havoc within the company.

Abby: Honestly, mom, what can diane really do with uncle jack and billy in charge?

Devon: Yeah. I mean, she doesn’t really have any business experience, so how would she cover her tracks?

Abby: Unless there’s something that we’re missing?

Ashley: We wanted to share this information with you because obviously we want– we want you to know what’s going on in our lives. Please keep it private. Please. If this becomes an issue with the board, I’m hoping that I can count on your support, abby.

Abby: Support? What’s going before the board?

Ashley: I’m hiring tucker to be a part of our senior management team. And I’m also floating the idea of removing jack as ceo.

[ Abby exhaling ]

Abby: I knew it. I knew you were behind this. You are using my mom all over again.

[ Summer sighing ]

Daniel: Hey, where is our favorite detective?

Summer: I was trying to plead my case with him.

Daniel: Any luck?

Summer: I thought that maybe I was getting somewhere, but then he got this phone call and he shot me a look, and then he just walked off.

Daniel: Did he say what the phone call was about?

Summer: I’m guessing it was a lead about mom and he took off after her.

Daniel: This is exactly what we don’t need. Mom getting scared and skipping town because she’s afraid she’s not gonna be treated fairly.

Summer: Well, it’s probably exactly what happened. Daniel, we might not ever see our mom again.

Daniel: No, do not go there. We are not gonna let that happen.

Nick: Cameron’s a liar and an opportunist.

Chance: And yet you charged into his room and you let him have it. You played right into his hands.

Nick: Let him have what? I showed up. I gave him a piece of my mind and told him he had to leave town.

Chance: You assaulted him, nick.

Nick: You wanna know what happened or not?

Chance: Look, I have to take you in. I have to read you your rights.

Nick: What are you talking about? Sharon and I told you what kind of guy he is. He framed sharon for murdering her ex-boyfriend. He is a psychopath.

Chance: That doesn’t make it okay for you to go beat the hell out of him.

Nick: I didn’t do that. I did not hit him.

Chance: Then what was said? What happened?

Nick: I told him he had to stay away from everyone in my family and that he had to leave town. That’s it. He has done nothing but terrorize sharon and stalk my daughter. He killed her cat. Was i supposed to just let that go?

Chance: You were supposed to let me handle it.

Nick: Well, you didn’t handle it, chance. You should heard him with all this crazy talk. He said he was gonna try and seduce sharon.

Chance: Is that when you hit him?

Nick: Who’s not listening now?

Chance: I know what you said, nick, but I have been told otherwise.

Nick: This is the truth.

Chance: Nick, we have been here before, man. We’ve been here. I gave you the benefit of the doubt when ashland was killed. I can’t do that again.

Nick: I was just making a point, all right? But clearly, he is not leaving town. This is his next desperate move.

Cameron: Detective chancellor.

Chance: Kirsten.

Cameron: Wait. You’re just gonna stand here like chatting with my assailant? Or maybe you wanna arrest him at some point, huh?

I have type 2 diabetes,

Abby: All this talk that you are a changed man was just a pack of lies.

Devon: Yeah, man. Are you– this is– you’re trying to pull a stunt like this? Really?

Abby: How are you not disgusted by this selfish, manipulative man?

Ashley: It’s not easy. However, you’re wrong about him. He’s had nothing to do with my plan for jabot. If anything, he’s tried to talk me out of it on many, many occasions.

Devon: Really?

Abby: Is this you talking or him?

Tucker: She’s telling the truth. I have been pushing her to walk away from jabot and leave it to the abbotts, start something new with me, but if this is what she wants, I’m all in.

Ashley: It’s true. And if anybody’s using anyone, it’s me. Tucker says he loves me. He wants a real marriage. Listen, I wanna protect my family’s company, so don’t blame him, okay? I’m the one that made this call.

Chance: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Nick: Let me look at you. Whoever did that to you, I’d sure like to shake his hand.

Cameron: Like you don’t know who did this to me.

Nick: You’re a liar. I never touched you.

Cameron: You didn’t touch me? Look at my face. Look at his knuckles.

Chance: Okay. All right. Let me see your hands.

[ Nick chuckling ] Yeah, it’s pretty banged up, nick.

Nick: This didn’t happen from punching him.

Chance: How’d it happen?

Nick: Like I said, he was running his mouth, so I hit the wall out of frustration.

Cameron: That’s true. He hit the wall with his first punch, but the next three after that? Look at this. What? Do I need any more proof?

Abby: I, uh, please forgive me. I didn’t realize.

Ashley: You didn’t ask. You just assumed.

Tucker: Well, you can understand why she would jump to the worst possible conclusion with me. I’ve given her lots of reason to doubt me and–

Ashley: That’s true.

Tucker: And my intentions over the years. So if I were in her shoes, I’d do the same. Both of you.

Devon: Well, let me say that I’m sorry I misjudged you as well.

Tucker: No apology necessary.

Abby: Look, I’m happy that you’re not on board with my mom’s whole fixation with diane, but I’m not happy that you’re trying to tempt her away from jabot. That’s her legacy. She earned it.

Ashley: I agree with that. And I’m not planning on going anywhere. And I’m not planning on letting jack hand over the keys to the kingdom to diane. And that’s why I’m very happy I– I’ve got this man’s support.

Kyle: Summer shut me out. She was in so much pain, or so I thought, and I pleaded for her to let me help, but she lied and lied and lied some more. She could not have hurt me more if she had stabbed me in the heart. So tell me, how am I supposed to get past that?

Jack: How long did you wait before you called the police?

Kyle: Until the initial shock wore off. Then I knew what I had to do. I had to tell them, even though summer is now in trouble, all caught up in phyllis’s mess.

Jack: You– you did the right thing. I don’t mean to sound harsh, but she had to know there were consequences. And then she broke your heart. This is inexcusable.

Diane: You’re– you’re right. But try to see this from summer’s point of view. How can we blame her for protecting her mother?

Kyle: After what phyllis has done? After what they’ve both done? How– how can you be so understanding?

Diane: No, I– I understand what summer did. Phyllis, not at all. Think about it. She put her children in a terrible position. Forcing them to lie to people they love.

Kyle: No– no one forced summer to lie to me.

Diane: Phyllis did. She knew that summer would do anything she could to protect her mother. Summer didn’t have a choice. All right, all right, kyle. Kyle, think about it. What if the situation was reversed and you had to choose between phyllis and your own mother? Who would you protect?

The thought of getting screened

Devon: All right. Should, uh, we get round two?

Abby: He means drinks, uh, not fighting.

Tucker: Yeah, I think it’s time we said our goodbyes.

Ashley: Yeah.

Abby: Really?

Tucker: YeaH.

Abby: I mean, ’cause we haven’t even gotten our food yet.

Ashley: I know, but we’ve given you so much to absorb in such a short period of time. A lot of stuff.

Tucker: Yeah. Next time. We’ll go somewhere with dominic and we will stay away from wedding talk and business talk and we’ll keep it nice and neutral.

Ashley: Yeah.

Devon: Okay. That’s a good idea probably.

Tucker: All right.

Devon: Yeah. Thanks.

Abby: I, um, I’d like to talk about this more with you. I mean, in private. I don’t wanna fight. I just wanna understand.

Ashley: Of course. And– and I love you. And thank you for the cocktails. And thank you for listening.

Abby: You’re welcome. I love you.

Tucker: Talk to you later.

Devon: Good one. Yeah.

Abby: Good night.

Tucker: Yeah. Good night. Thank you for the invitation.

Ashley: Bye-bye.

Devon: See you, guys.

Abby: Oof! Okay.

[ Devon laughing ]

Abby: Whose idea was this again? Oh, never mind. That’s right. It was mine.

Devon: Yeah. It did not go the way we thought, did it?

Abby: Those two baffle me.

Devon: Oh, me too.

Abby: I– I don’t know who I’m more worried about. Your dad using my mom or my mom using him.

Diane: I am not condoning what summer did, obviously, but we shouldn’t judge her too harshly. She must have been scared to death.

Jack: You’re holding summer blameless? She could have told us at any time, saved us a world of torment.

Diane: And phyllis could have prevented this whole thing months ago. I guarantee that any torment that we’ve been feeling, summer has suffered twice as much. She’s not the villain here. She’s as much of a victim as any of us. I am trying to empathize with what our daughter-in-law has been going through.

Jack: Well, you are a better person than I am.

Diane: Well, first of all, no, I’m not, but summer must have been overwhelmed by the circumstances. Circumstances that her mother created to save her own skin. If we should blame anyone, it’s phyllis. Kyle, I am so sorry. My– my heart aches for you because you have been badly hurt, but so has your wife at the hands of her own mother and that is really unfair. I– I– I think summer deserves our compassion and our forgiveness.

Kyle: You are… amazing.

Diane: Don’t say that. I’m not. I just know that you and summer have something that is really special and I– I don’t wanna see you toss your marriage aside just because her mother is a destructive narcissist. Kyle, I’m not even sure you realize how valuable and– and unique your relationship is, but I just, I don’t want you to lose someone who truly loves you.

Kyle: I– I just don’t know if I can turn the other cheek. There’s been too many lies and too many days of watching her suffer and blaming myself for not being what she needed. Summer didn’t just choose phyllis over you. She– she chose a lie over our marriage. How am I supposed to get past that?

Daniel: Okay. Okay. Let’s just take a breath here and decide our next move.

Summer: I can’t even think about that right now. I might have just lost my mom and my husband.

Daniel: I can’t do anything for you and kyle, but if we put our heads together, maybe we can figure out a way to help mom.

Summer: Everything that we have tried so far has completely failed.

Daniel: So we try again and we keep trying until we find something that works.

Summer: Daniel, she is facing murder charges and there is absolutely no way to prove that it was self-defense. Unless… what if there was a witness? Somebody that saw everything that went down between her and stark that night. Who– who is willing to corroborate her story that– that it was self-defense?

Daniel: Summer, there are no witnesses. Nobody else was there. You know that.

Summer: Yeah, but the police don’T. We’re the only ones who have actually talked to her. There’s a lot of details that the cops don’t know about and stark isn’t around to refute them.

Daniel: This does not sound very feasible.

Summer: Just listen to me. What if– what if– what if there was someone who was willing to come forward for the right price? Who– who is willing to swear that they saw everything?

Chance: Nick, you admitted that you went to the guy’s hotel room. You exchanged words. Your hand is beaten up. His face is beaten up. I have to take you in, man. I’m sorry.

Nick: Fine. I’ll go to the station when I’m ready. I’m gonna go to the ranch first and make sure that sharon and faith are safe.

Chance: No, I will make sure they’re safe, okay? I have to take you, man. Once you go through booking, make sure you call victor, get him on the phone.

Cameron: Sounds like somebody’s getting special treatment ’cause they got a special last name.

Chance: Shut up. Come oN. Come on. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to hire a lawyer and have one present with you while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford one, one will be appointed to you. Come on, come on, come on.

Announcer: Next week on the young and the restless…

Audra: Some people are afraid of their own desires. It’s like they’re ashamed to admit how badly they want something.

Sally: [ Groaning ] Ah!

Adam: What– what is it?

Sally: [ Groaning ] Oh, I don’t know.

Nick: What’s going on?

Sharon: It’s faith. He took her. He took our baby.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

you’re not dressed yet. Sweetheart. One of the upsides of being a gentleman of leisure is not having a set schedule, but you do have an appointment to keep.

Lunch with Ms. Rizek? Ah, yes. That I’m not going.

Yes, this is Gwen Rizek. I’m phoning to confirm a reservation for lunch, right? Yes. It’s for two people at one o’clock. Um, and just so you know, my um, guest is Mr. Vaughn Ner. Dimitri Von Ner. So I would please like a very quiet, nice table in the corner. Private one. Thank you. Well, everything’s set with my interview with the mysterious Mr.

Von Ner. I’m telling you, Matty, this is going to be the spectator scoop of the century. How nice. So while everything’s coming up, roses for you. My life is over.

Yeah. Well, okay. Thanks Jada. Keep me posted. Okay. Sounds like there’s no news. Yeah, she says. They have no new lease. I mean, I don’t get it. How does the mayor of a town just vanish? Beats me? What about that, that Colin Bedford guy, the one that put Abe in the hospital? I mean, he’s in custody, right? No, he was just bl.

When he said he had information about where Abe is, he’d say anything to cut a deal with the cops. Yeah. Are they sure? Sloan Peterson is his lawyer and his sister and she says he doesn’t know anything. Uh, you know, I wouldn’t leave anything out of the two of them, his mouth, so. Well that is a good point, but Bedford’s in a whole lot of trouble.

If he did have Abe stashed away, I do believe he’d say so. I just, I, I think it’s ridiculous. Okay. There’s no way that Abe could have gotten out of that hospital on his own. So someone must have helped him. Someone must have seen him. That’s what I keep telling myself. Yes. Yes. Julie, I’m back in my hospital bed now.

No, no, no, honey, you don’t need to come. No, I’m fine. Well, I’m, I will be once they find out who really took Abe and where he is. Oh,

uh, I, I’ll come back after your call. No, no, no, don’t go. I need to talk to you.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are days of our lives.

Well, you know what, I, I can’t sit around here twiddling my thumbs any longer. What are you gonna do? Well, I’m gonna go talk to John and Steve and, uh, offer my help. Well, I don’t see them turning you down. Me neither. See you later. Oh, no, no. Please be careful. Bring him home. Will do. Hey Michaels. Hello, Kate Roman, we heard you were back in town soap.

Are you coming by for early lunch or no? No, I just, uh, wanted to see if you heard anything from Megan Hathaway. No, I haven’t heard of Peep since she came by the other day. Fuck you, me. Well, Steve says that, uh, that’s reading your bet. Yeah, I thought I would, you know, I thought I’d keep an eye on her. Felt like it’s the least I could do, but I’m assuming that you would prefer it if I just stayed away in mind of my own business.

Really? Do I have to remind you that it is not long before you turn 40? You mean for the umpteenth time? And the codicil to the will says that you, that if I am not married by the time I turn 40, I will not inherit a scent. Yes, mother. I know it has been emblazoned in my brain. Thanks to you not to mention that I read it all right here.

Where did you get that in your room? Where else, and you felt to mention a few pertinent details? Which details? Well, for one, that I need to remain married for at least a year. That’s not all. Let me see. Where’s my absolute favorite part? Uh, yes. Here it is. Now, if it is found that Mr. Von Leischner has entered into this marital contract under false pretenses, then he loses every penny, which means that not only do I have to marry this rice chick woman, but I have to remain married to her for at least a year, and I have to act as though I am besotted with her.

You don’t have to act besotted, just turn on the charm. Romance a bit. Would that be the worst thing in the world? I just got out of prison. I am ensconced in this mansion. I thought maybe I could have a little bit of fun. That might prove difficult if I’m playing the part of the devoted husband.

Okay. Tell me, my darling, why do you think that your life is over? I went to see my mother in Statesville. Why on Earth would you do that? I honestly don’t know. But you loathe her with good reason. I mean, what possessed you to go over there and see her? I mentioned her to that lady cop when she was grilling me.

Jada Hunter. Jada Hunter told you to go and see your mother? No. It just made me realize that I hadn’t visited mommy dearest once since they put her in the slammer. And so you just thought you’d take care of that today? Then did you get it over with mainly, gosh, I can see by your mood that it went swimmingly.

Did you two have a row? Please. I learned a long time ago not to contradict Diana when she’s ranting. Today’s rant was entitled, why Leo Stark is a worthless human being that nobody could ever possibly love.

I’m gonna have to call you back, Julie. Um, oh, yes. Okay, bye. Oh, um, thank you for waiting. Yes. Um, what can I do for you? Um, My name is Paulina Price, but of course, I’m sure you already know that. Yes, it’s, it’s, it’s here on your chart. I know who you are. You do? Mm-hmm. My husband suffered a head injury a few days ago, and they brought him here, and while I was waiting to hear how he was, I saw you taking care of him, and I just want to say thank you.

For what? For everything that you did for Abraham. Oh, I’m just a nurse. That’s what we do. Oh yeah. I know that is not easy. Most people give credit to the doctors for saving people’s lives, but it’s you nurses that take care of people around the clock. I don’t know what me and Abraham would’ve done without you.

Ms. King,

you there? I know that voice. I really need to talk to you. It’s important.

Ms. King is the police.

I’m gonna go now and I’m gonna lock the door behind me. I want you to listen to me very carefully. I don’t wanna frighten you, but that. Man that attacked you is still out there and he, he’s been impersonating a cop, so it’s very important not to open the door, especially if the cops show up. Okay.

Well, you, uh, you probably hate me. Well, I wouldn’t go that far. Look, Harris, I may have hated what went down with you and hope and my brother, but I’m in your debt. You stuck your neck out. For my wife, you saved Katie from Megan and that son of hers and for that, for that I will always owe you.

Perhaps Ms. Rizek isn’t the woman of your dreams. But isn’t inheriting a vast fortune worth being married for one tiny little year to a wife you don’t love? And what exactly do I need this vast fortune for? We seem to be doing pretty well around here, Dimitri. This might look like a mansion, but it’s actually a pool for sharks.

You and I have no choice but to share the demure fortune. With Tony, ej, Stephan, Kristen, Chad, and any other illegitimate child that shows up at the door

and every single one of those sharks wants that fortune for themselves, but none of them can touch the von Leischner fortune. That my darling is all ours. Ours. That is right, my dear Ours. This was part of the plan when I married your father. You’ll be sharing that money with your mother.

Come on, Mattie. How many times have you told me that your mum is a conniving bitch? Honestly, why should you believe a single word that she says? Maybe because it’s true. Stop that. I mean it. Nobody has ever loved me. Excuse me. What about me? You’re my friend. I’m talking about lovers. None of them have ever stuck around.

Well, there was Darius. Yeah. Who was gone the minute he got his green card? And Craig, I was only in that one for the money. Well, yes, maybe at first. But then you developed feelings for him, didn’t you? And look how that turned out.

There was that one night in Vegas with Chris Hemsworth, though. He spent the night with Chris Hemsworth. All right. It was an impersonator, but still he had no trouble raising his hammer, but even he was gone right after the breakfast buffet.

Honestly, I do feel like there was something between Sonny and me, but then Will came back like he always does, and they made up like they always do. What was I thinking? Sonny is a married man. There was never any hope, but that’s what I’m talking about. Every guy I ever go for is either married straight or using me for my American citizenship.

I hate to say it, but maybe Diana was right.

It was an honor taking care of a man like your husband for, as I said, I was just doing my job. Well, I think being a nurse is more than just a job. It’s a calling. Oh, it was a joy taking care of the mayor, and I’m just so sorry that all those terrible things happened to him and that awful attacker, who possibly is the one who kidnapped him?

Yes, yes. Colin, Colin Bedford. He’s a sick, dangerous man, but turns out. He wasn’t responsible for Abe’s disappearance. How do the police know they do? That’s all that matters. Oh, are there any, um, other suspects? No,

I have no idea where my husband is. How he is, I don’t know. I never even see him again.

Dear, dear.

Hello. Is anyone there?

Okay, well I was just leaving to go help John and Steve look for Yeah, sure. Good luck with that. You will call me if you get any information. Will do. Yeah. Bye.

How about at lunch now? Uh, no thanks. I’m, I’m good. You know, now that I’ve come back to Salem, I just gotta really, um, figure out my life. What’s that mean? Yeah, well I’m, I’m staying at my parents’ old place. Don’t know how long I can stay there, so, you know, if I wanna get my own place or rent a place, I’m just gonna have to figure out a job.

Well, I might be able to help you with that one. Yeah. How so? I would happily pay you to get rid of Megan Hathaway.

Are you listening to what I’m saying? Yes, mother. I am. I am. I’m just. I’ll admit, I am not relishing the prospect of having to share my inheritance with a platoon of Damaris. There you go. You see, finding this corso was the best thing that’s happened to us in a long time. Oh, see now there you go again with that US word.

And yet, I’m the one who is being forced to marry a woman that I just met. Now you listen to me. I have sacrificed plenty for you over the years. Just think opportunity to,

how long have you and I been friends? Oh, let’s see. We met in 2006, so if you take 23 and then you subtract the six. Oh, of course I’m not, I’m not asking you to do the math. You big knob. I was just pointing out that I know you really well. Yeah, and so I know everything your mother said about you is simply not true.

Easy for you to say she’s not your mother. Oh, come on mate. If we’re playing bad mother poker here, we both have a winning hand in this.

My mother convinced me that my father didn’t care if I lived or died. That’s why I turned out like this. I drugged. My sister went after her husband. Thanks to dear old mom, I was convinced that if I were to get anyone to love me, I would have to trick them.

So you know what? Everything that our mothers have said about us, it is absolute rubbish. I love you so much, Gwynnie, and not a single trick made me feel that way. Just your genuine adorableness. I catch you Mady.

Doesn’t really help us in the romance department though, does it? No. What you and I need is for two handsome, well-heeled strangers with great asses to show up one day and sweep us off our feet. That doesn’t happen very often though, does it now? Exactly. Should I repay you? Go upstairs, get dressed, have lunch with Ms.

Rizek and turn on the charm. Must I? Yes. Now. Okay. Okay. Look, the sooner you propose to her, the sooner we get all that lovely money. This is why I adore you, mother. You never sacrifice your own dignity upstairs. Okay, now. So what are your plans for all that lovely money?

Don’t you worry about your husband, all right. He’s gonna be just fine. You can’t possibly know that you’re right. I can’t, but I’m a woman of faith and my faith has gotten me through so, And I know that you are a woman of faith too. I usually am, but then, oh, Frank, is there news about A, I’m sorry, what? Well, then why are you here?

I’m here because I was told that Ms. King was here. I need to speak with her.

Well, I must be, must be the guy who, who attacked me. I hope. Hope he’s gone. I hope he’s gone. But if not, I, I have to defend myself. Well,

oh,

I guess I have to wait. Let’s wait till Paulina comes home.

Charlamagne,

what do you think you’re doing here? Cassandra? You and I are gonna have it out once and for all.

Yeah. Dashing handsome strangers. Well, they only turn up in romance novels, don’t they? I think we might be setting our sights too High pointer. No, no, no, no, no. I don’t want you thinking that way. I believe, and it might just be the three cups of coffee I just had. That’s making me feel frenetic and wound up in a good way.

That true love is just around the corner for both of us. Oh, so it’s just the caffeine then talking, is it? No. No. Well, I mean, maybe the caffeine is helping me to feel optimistic, but it doesn’t negate the fact that I am envisioning great romantic futures for both of us. Us. Oh, besides, we have a backup plan.

If neither of us find a man, we just marry each other. Resorting to Eves dropping. Now are we. Did you have a glass pressed in a wall? Oh no. Your voice carries. See, I heard it all the way out from the garden. Oh, into horticulture. Now, are you, I do have something of a green thumb, but guess what we’re talking about?

You, Megan, and I already know about your plant to take over the world and, uh, how are you going to use the vonner money? Don’t you think it’s time I learned what you’re going to do with it?

Uh, okay. Um, let’s define, get rid of, do I convince Megan to leave town or do we take it a step further? Okay. Well, first of all, I don’t need you to play games with me. You’re not going to make me feel guilty. Megan tried to kill me and then she sicked her brainwashed henchman on me. No offense. No none taken.

And if though hadn’t had a last minute change of heart, I would be dead right now. Okay. So I think you can imagine how I feel about Megan coming back into Salem with her demented wealth and putting down roots. I mean, obviously you think she’s up to something or you wouldn’t be keeping your eye on her, would you?

Do you think that, uh, she’s gonna try to kill you again? I don’t wanna wait and see. I just wanna have her neutralized first. Okay. Why don’t you just tell me exactly what it is that you want? Oh, I think you know what I want, and it’s not just about my life. She had plans for Marlena and Kayla. Should you consult with them about your plan?

That would be a waste of time. Neither of them has the killer instinct. I’m the only one ruthless enough to take care of this situation. Ah, yeah. Have you going mad? I want justice and I do it myself, so be it.

Ah, what are you raving about now? I know you read the ballot box. Charlamagne Delacroix. You are not gonna get away with stealing the election from me. Well, I don’t know what you mean. Oh really? You can’t stand. Rhett loves me and not you, and you’re gonna do anything in your power to make sure that you are voted Woman of the year.

Woman of the year, that’s what they’re fighting about. Accuse me of whatever you want. You have no proof and I’m going to be Woman of the year, whether you like it or not.

You wanna talk to me? Uh, you’re a policeman, right? Commissioner? Commissioner Hernandez. And, uh, just came from your apartment. There was no one there. So I came here. I also left you a message yesterday and never called me back. Oh, I, I, I’m sorry. I had my phone turned off. I’m a little behind in my payments.

I see. Okay. Well, um, it, what can I do for you, uh, commissioner? Well, it seems as though you may have been the last person to see Mayor Carver before he disappeared.

Okay, lemme get this straight. You have the killer instinct, but you want me to do the killing? Well, it’s not like you haven’t done it before. If you’re talking about the jobs I did for Megan, I wasn’t right up here. I was brainwashed. Okay. Okay, but you still have it in you, right? You’re a Navy seal, you have advanced combat training.

Yeah. Megan is evil, but she’s not exactly an arm combatant. She isn’t exactly a frail flower now, is she? She tried to ruin your life. She almost cost you your freedom, right? Yeah, pretty much. Okay. So we both know what she’s capable of and we both know sooner or later she’s going to be back at it and that could be a problem.

Mm-hmm. But your problem is money, and I have loads of it.

Why pay me or anybody else. Your husband was a cop. I’m sure he would love the chance to get even with Megan. Okay. I love my husband dearly, but my take on morality is situational. His is absolute. He stopped to John and Steve from killing Orpheus, who’s a monster. There is no chance I could convince him to kill a woman like Megan, even though she may be evil incarnate, which means I’m left with you.

I have done some far out stuff, but never plan to take over the world. So Megan, spell it. How are you gonna do it? Well, do I pass inspection? Oh, you clean up so well. Only a bespoke suit would do all the work for me. Now, how am I going to convince this reporter who is interviewing me that I barely know that I’m mad about her and that she should marry me?

You’re really gonna do that, is he? I am sure you have. Many ways to charm women. Yes, but my aim has never been marriage. What have I just told her? Why I needed to marry her? Have you forgotten about the clause that specifies you must be sincere in your intentions. What little clause is that? Do shut up.

And it may not even be difficult. Apparently Ms. Rizek is desperate for a new man in her life, and I heard something to the effect that Xander Cook used and abused her. You see, she’s primed and ready

and now so are you. What’s this? Well, it’s everything you need to know about the fair mis wrist check. When did you have the time to put this together? I needed some background on my future daughter-in-law, didn’t I? Especially if I was going to expediate the process. Oh, mother, when did you become such an incurable, romantic?

I hope you know, I will be expecting a gigantic six Kara Diamond engagement ring from you. Oh, you think I’m kidding? Of course I do. I’m not. I seriously think you and I should consider tying the knot, then we can have a huge wedding invite everyone we know, invite everyone. We don’t know. Why on earth would we do that?

The bridal registry gwenie with our taste. We’d make a killing. Yes, except for nobody likes us enough to pay a single penny on gifts. Ugh, killjoy.

Oh, I’m so sorry. Are my efforts to cheer myself up boring you? No, it’s not that. It’s just I have to finish getting ready. If I’m going to make it to this interview on time, fine. Go have your glamorous interview. I’m gonna stay here and watch Bunny and Soul. Well, tell me what happens next when I get back.

Oh, Gwenie. When you meet Mr. Vonner, you may not wanna mention my name. Okay. Why is that? We have something of a troubled past. Remember the whole Almanian peacock debacle? He kind of threatened to kill me over that. That was him? Mm-hmm. Oh, for goodness sake, my lips are sealed.

Nobody told me Ms. King was the last person to see Abe, not even Ms. King. Are you accusing me of something? No. No. But, uh, you were working this floor yesterday when Abe regained consciousness, and then shortly after he had regained consciousness, he disappeared. And according to the duty roster, He was assigned as one of your patients?

Well, I have a lot of patients that I see too. Right. Yeah. Okay. We’ll try and think through the day. Was there anyone around that would’ve been suspicious, someone lurking around that shouldn’t have been? No. No. Nothing like that? No. You remember taking care of her? Did you? You’re awake. How are you feeling?

Paulina? Excuse me. I know. I know who you are. You’re my wife. Well, yes. Yes, I remember it well. There was something

you might be able to see a woman of a year away from me. But I will not let you steal my man. Rhett loves me and only me, don’t embarrass yourself. Well, that’s exactly what you’re doing. Desperately holding onto a man who doesn’t love you. You think that Rhett loves you? Oh yeah, I do. The only reason you were able to get your claws into red was because he had amnesia.

So this plan of yours, is it already in motion? Oh, yummy. Yeah, you’re stalling, which makes me believe that you’re having your doubts about it. You underestimate me. Mm. You underestimate the number of enemies you’ve made in this town. So if you want them to bend to your will, you’re gonna have to have an army on your side.

Yes, that’s right. And every army needs a commander. Mm. Well, it sounds like you have someone in mind. That’s right. One who recently arrived right here in Salem.

So Commander Michaels, do we have a deal?

Whatever Megan did to me. I can never be hit, man. Now clearly you are back on the side of the angels. Hmm? Traval. I’m not, yeah, I’m sorry. You’re gonna have to find somebody else. I, okay. Well, you should probably keep your guard up. Though sooner or later Megan is gonna take action against you. Maybe. Hope that could be true, and I don’t like to be backed into a corner.

Okay. It’s just give it some thought. I think you’ll realize that I’m telling the truth and he’ll come around.

Gwen, did you order room service?

You.

Well, I went into Mr. Carver’s room to check his vital signs, and I noticed that he was conscious and very, very confused. That’s what Chanel said. Um, I told him not to worry that he was gonna be just fine, and then I left to notify his doctor of his change in his condition. Okay. And then I didn’t see him again after that.

You don’t remember anyone hanging around outside his room? No. No sir. And that Colin Bedford was handcuffed to his bed. Oh gosh. I wish I could be more, have more help. Yeah. Well, thank you for your time and if you need anything, you just ring that call back. I’ll come running. I don’t want you to know that the mayor is in my prayer

so. This red character at Amnesia and left this woman for that woman.

You enjoy your moment in the sun, honey. Because you may win this award tonight, but you will never truly be Woman of the Year. You’re talking nonsense again. Oh, you just wait. I might have a little. Ace up my sleeve. What Ace?

What Ace? We interrupt this program to bring you breaking news regarding the 2008 mayoral election. We are going live to Carver Campaign headquarters. There’s been a lot said about me and my family during the course of this campaign. Some of it’s true, some of it’s not true, and over the next several weeks I will delineate fact from fiction.

But tonight I want to assure all of Salem. That I am committed to making life in this city better for our children and our children’s children. I am honored. And humbly accept this position as your mayor. Woo.

Ridge: You know exactly what it means. Thomas has been struggling for years with his feelings for hope and he’s figured it out now, right? He’s put it behind him. He’s changed his life and I’m very proud of him. And look at this, I mean, it shows in his work. All of this, it’s sophisticated, it’s elegant, it’s amazing, all of it. So, hope’s line is in very good hands. That’s all I’m saying.

Brooke: I certainly would love to believe that.

Wyatt: I’m sorry. They’re going to wha– what? Wha– oh. Wait, they’re– they’re going for the hope for the future press event, right? That they’re showcasing the new line.

Liam: Yeah, I mean, and you know how intense it gets right before a fashion preview, right? Longer nights, longer hours. Just take that intensity, put it in another country, multiply it by 1,000 and this is what you get. I mean, it’s just more time at the office, more time with thomas, and it’s all gonna crescendo with them going to italy together. It’s like, come on.

Wyatt: But, I mean, this can’t be a total surprise for you. Like, thomas is the lead designer and if hope of the future is going to rome, well, then… I mean, you had to have known that hope is gonna want thomas to go, too.

Hope: I say we put a rush on this. I mean, is there any possible way it could be ready for the preview?

Thomas: Oh, you mean, you love it that much?

Hope: I mean, I do. I mean, I think I can hear the actual audible gasps coming from the audience.

Thomas: I mean, yeah, if you’re wearing it, then they’re definitely gonna applaud.

Hope: You’re being kind.

Thomas: No, I’m not. I’m serious. It’s just honesty. I– you could wear a trash bag and they would still love it.

Hope: [ Laughing ] You know, I think you might have stumbled on our next collection.

Thomas: I think you’re right. Garb-aage chic.

Hope: Garbage chic.

Thomas: It’s gotta be garb-aage.

Hope: Garb-aage.

Thomas: Yeah.

Hope: So wrong to admit that I– that I am human?

Brooke: And what does that mean? Hope, come on, you’ve gotta be honest here.

Hope: I– I might have– have felt a little something.

Brooke: For thomas?

Hope: Yeah, yeah. But it’s fine. Mom, it’s fine. I can handle it. I don’t know.

Thomas: All right. Maybe it’s getting weird. Maybe we just stick with regular clothing.

Hope: Wait, no, no. Or we could incorporate it into our messaging and just have it be a sustainable fashion line.

Thomas: Oh, that’s fantastic.

Hope: There we go.

Thomas: Recycled material… febreze!

Wyatt: So, you basically asked hope to exclude thomas from the whole trip, flat out?

Liam: Yeah. And she basically told me to go kick rocks.

Wyatt: Well, yeah, the lead designer does have certain privileges. I’m– I’m not trying to rile you up here. It– it– it– it’s pesky facts. What– when’s the trip? Is it– is it coming up soon or–

Liam: Yeah, it’s soon. It’s, like, really soon. It’s– there’s a lot of momentum, probably too much for me to stop anything at this point.

Wyatt: Right. Well, um… it’ll probably be fine.

Liam: Really?

Wyatt: You know? Just be positive.

Liam: Yeah? You know how traumatized I was by hope and thomas going to san francisco together, and that was in the same state, in the same country, just for the day.

Wyatt: And the day almost turned into overnight.

Liam: Yeah, exactly. And look how stressful that was. Now I gotta picture the two of them in rome, italy together?

Wyatt: Yeah. One of the most romantic cities in the world.   I’m sorry, I’m sorry, that– that came out.

Liam: Wow.

Wyatt: I didn’t mean that to come out.

Liam: That wa– wow. Almost impressive how unhelpful that was.

Wyatt: [ Whispering ] Wow, I’m so– I’m sorry.

Ridge: And she wants that in rome? The one from today?

Thomas: Yes. I– I– I know it’s kind of ambitious, but I think we might be able to get it done. Also, I have another one. It’s– it’s sleeveless and I know I have a lot of sleeveless options, but I honestly think it’s so powerful.

Ridge: Okay, well, maybe the best option right now is to slow down a little bit. This may not be your last fashion show.

Thomas: [ Laughing ] Okay. I’m just– I know, I’m– I’m– I’m feeling really inspired. That’s it.

Ridge: Good. I like to see you like this. Energized. Makes me happy. But it also makes me a little nervous.

Thomas: Me being inspired?

Ridge: And energized. Yes. You know why? ‘Cause the last time I saw you like that… was when you were, um, obsessed with hope.

Thomas: Uh, right.

Ridge: But that’s behind us now, right? It’s– it’s past us. Makes me happy.

Thomas: Thank you. Means a lot. Um, and I understand why you feel how you do and you’re just– might still be concerned after what steffy said to you.

Ridge: We just don’t want you to fall back on the same pattern. If there’s any reason to think that hope has feelings for you–

Thomas: There isn’T. And she doesn’T. Trust me, dad. There’s nothing to worry about with hope and me going to rome together.

Brooke: Thomas didn’t have to leave, honey. Was it something I said?

Hope: No, no, not at all. He just wanted to find ridge ’cause he’s excited about his new design. I mean, it’s so impressive, mom. And thomas has been so motivated. It’s like he can’t shut off the creativity. He just keeps going and going even though he realizes it might not even be ready in time for italy. I mean, it doesn’t even matter at this point. It’s so gorgeous. It could– it can wait ’til next season. I mean, look, see for yourself. It’s beautiful.

Brooke: Yes, indeed. I mean, he does have his father’s talent, that’s for sure. I told ridge that I might wanna be there. You know, to help out and see the preview and watch your success.

Hope: Oh, I mean, that’s great. But you don’t have to if you don’t–

Brooke: Oh, honey, I want to. I am so proud of you. I want to be there for my daughter.

Hope: Aw.

Brooke: Besides, I think it would benefit you if I was there, in more ways than one. Well, I, uh… I could keep an eye on you and thomas. What’s the #1 retinol brand

Liam: I’m very aware of how romantic the city of rome, italy is. I don’t actually need you to remind me of that. So, thank you.

Wyatt: We haven’t even touched on the culinary aspect of it. I mean, who doesn’t fall in love over a nice authentic italian bowl of pasta and a great bottle of wine?

Liam: Bro, are you for real right now?

Wyatt: I’m just saying the city is vast. History is amazing and I just– I loved it there–

Liam: I’m sorry, do you understand the dynamic that, like, when I talk to you, you’re supposed to make me feel better–

Wyatt: I don’t mean to make you more upset. I don’t mean to rile you up more than you already are. Okay? I’m sorry. I am, truly. Look, I– I– I get– I get why you’re worried. Okay? You have every reason to be. I am glad that I am not in your shoes. But… maybe you could just try again? Talking to hope? Just addressing your very legitimate concerns about thomas? I mean, yeah, he’s important to the line. Great. It probably wouldn’t even be there without him. Fantastic. But who cares? Is– is it absolutely necessary for thomas to be there? Oh, I’ve got it. He can attend the event and he doesn’t even have to be there. Video conference him in, put him up on a big screen. He’ll love it. Ego and everything. People are doing it all the time. Embrace the technology.

Liam: That’s actually, like, a really good idea.

Wyatt: Yes.

Liam: And super outside the box.

Wyatt: You’re welcome.

Liam: Hope will never go for it.

Wyatt: What? Really? She’s that dead set on him being there? Are you sure? Are you sure there is nothing else that you can do to convince hope to tell thomas he can’t go?

Ridge: You know what, thomas? The more I think about it, the more I talk to you about it, the less concerned I am about you and hope.

Thomas: Really?

Ridge: Yeah. I don’t know, the idea of hope all of a sudden just falling for you and having feelings, it just seems a little silly. No offense.

Thomas: No, no, no, no, it’s none taken ’cause honestly, it– it sounds silly to me, too. I mean, hope is all about liam.

Ridge: It’s about liam, about her family, kids.

Thomas: Yeah.

Ridge: Not like her mom. Wait.

Thomas: Okay. [ Laughing ] Yeah, you probably maybe changed the phrasing there ’cause it kind of sounds like you’re throwing brooke under the bus.

Ridge: That’s not what I meant at all. It’s just, she’s a different person. Brooke, she follows her heart.

Thomas: Yeah.

Ridge: She also is gonna follow us to rome if that’s– is that okay?

Thomas: Yeah. Actually, that’S… no, that’s– that’s great.

Ridge: You sure?

Thomas: Yeah. No. Honestly, I think it’s– I think it’s awesome because, well, then brooke will be able to see hope and me working together as a team.

Hope: So, you want to come on this trip in order to be my chaperone?

Brooke: That’s not how I would put it.

Hope: Oh, you don’t trust me.

Brooke: No, I do trust you. I just don’t want you to make any mistakes. I mean, I am concerned.

Hope: Don’t be.

Brooke: Honey, am I supposed to just ignore the fact that you admitted to me that you have feelings for thomas?

Hope: Oh, my gosh, can we please not?

Brooke: And then, you backpedaled and you said you want to have nothing to do with him and that he’s manipulative. But then you told him something else.

Hope: Because it was a cruel thing to say. And I felt horrified that he overheard that.

Brooke: You felt horrified because I believe that you’re having growing feelings for him.

Hope: Do you know how hurtful that is? That– that you think I can’t control myself around a man that isn’t my husband?

Brooke: Honey. I just want you to be realistic.

Hope: I am. And staying true to my wedding vows, I don’t think we’re gonna have a problem there.

Brooke: Okay. I’m not judging you.

[ Hope scoffs ]

Brooke:  And I’m not saying there’s going to be a problem. I am just concerned and I know better than anybody what it’s like to get involved with the inappropriate man. And I am telling you, hope. Thomas would be that man for you.

Brooke: I just don’t want you to do something that you’re going to regret.

Hope: Mom, you should trust me.

Brooke: Honey. Do you understand the danger that you’re in?

Hope: Danger? What are you talking about?

Brooke: If there’s any feelings at all between you and thomas, that could be dangerous.

Hope: Wow. Uh, mom, this is a business trip and thomas and I, we’re work partners.

Brooke: Okay. That’s exactly what I’m talking about. You work together closely, you collaborate, you create. Honey, don’t you see? He’s the designer and you’re the muse. His muse. Don’t you see? This goes all the way back to the greek and roman mythology. And now you’re going to rome, the birthplace of all of that.

Hope: Mom, you are– you’re being ridiculous right now.

Brooke: Honey, the draw between an artist and his inspiration is very strong. It’s undeniable. And you both are going to the most romantic city in the world. I don’t know what’s going to happen. I just wish thomas didn’t have to go.

Hope: Thomas is the lead designer.

Brooke: Okay, I– I understand that. And he deserves to be in the spotlight just as much as you do. I just don’t want you to let your guard down. You need to respect your marriage to liam.

Hope: You don’t need to tell me that.

Brooke: I’m speaking from experience.

Hope: Yeah. Well, I’m not you.

Brooke: Oh, okay.

Hope: I’m sorry, mom. It’s just– this is– this is… it’s like no one believes anything that is coming out of my mouth. Everything is fine. Okay? Everything is under control. Thomas and I are fine, liam and I are fine. I’m not worried, so you shouldn’t be either. All right? Now, if you just would excuse me, I have to finish editing my speech.

Brooke: I just don’t want you to make the same mistakes that I made. That’s all.

[ Door clicks closed ]

Liam: Honestly, I don’t know if– if there’s anything I can say at this point to convince hope. But you– but you– you’re right that I should try. I should– I should do everything I can to stop thomas from going to rome. Because if I don’T… I don’t know, man, I think trouble’s right around the corner.

Thomas: Having a lot of fun playing around with the colors.

Ridge: Do we have something like this?

Thomas: I think we do. Oh, yeah. Very, very close. It’s not exactly the same, but it’s, like, sapphire.

Ridge: What about here?

Brooke: Oh, hi, thomas.

Ridge: Hey.

Thomas: Hey.

Brooke: I saw your latest design. It’s very beautiful. I hope it can be ready for the preview.

Thomas: Oh, thank you. I do, toO. A preview for which I hear you might be joining us.

Brooke: Oh, yeah, I would like that very much.

Thomas: I was just telling dad what a great idea that’d be. That way you can see how great hope and i are together.

Brooke: I’m not judging you. I am just concerned and I know better than anybody what it’s like to get involved with the inappropriate man. Thomas would be that man for you. You need to respect your marriage to liam.

Hope: It’s like no one believes anything that is coming out of my mouth. Everything is fine. Okay? Everything is under control. Thomas and I are fine, liam and I are fine. I’m not worried. So, you shouldn’t be either.

Thomas: I love being in italy with you, hope. Dreams really do come true.

Hope: No. No.

Recap written by Terry

Nick does his best to protect Sharon from Cameron. Sharon keeps a level head and insists that she and Nick will not make the same mistakes as they did with him the first time he terrorized her. She said it’s time to let Victor and Nikki know Cameron is back. She also notes that she and Nick need the resources Victor can provide in order to get protection from Cameron. Nick is hesitant, knowing that his dad’s help comes with strings, but Sharon insists on seeking Victor’s help. Victor vows to do everything he could to keep Sharon safe and posted a guard outside Sharon’s home; also, he’ll have security patrolling the ranch 24/7.

Nick and Sharon learn that Cameron stole the clothing of a security guard at Newman Towers, including ID. Cameron wore the uniform to his hotel room, but then he took it off and placed it in a trash bag.

Ashley and Tucker have a drink. Ashley is upset by the thought of Diane further insinuating herself into Jack’s life. Ashley insists she has to be around to protect Jabot from Diane’s suspected goal to gain respectability, money and power.

Tucker, frustrated with Ashley’s worries about Diane, offers to take Ashley on a romantic vacation – anywhere she chooses. However, Ashley insists she has to stay and keep an eye on Diane. Sshe spoke to the Board of Directors about her suspicions, unbeknownst to Jack. Ashley wants to get the board on her side to keep Diane out of an executive position. Tucker notes it’s going to be difficult to get the board to oust Jack. Ashley wants to enlist Tucker’s help to take down Diane, whom Ashley expects will worm her way into an executive position.

Diane and Jack dance at the club, savoring Diane’s freedom. Diane wants them to walk down the aisle together. Jack loves the idea. Diane wants Summer to be her matron of honor, to prove to Summer that she is important and loved. She also wants the wedding day to prove Phyllis has no power over the family. Diane credits Jack for the happiness they share and Jack happily says he could not be more excited about their future and wants to discuss a wedding date. Diane says she wants a small but elegant wedding and for Harrison to be the ring bearer. Jack agrees.

Kyle follows Summer to the hotel where Phyllis is staying. Kyle insists on their going to the police station, so that Phyllis can turn herself in. Phyllis looks a bit defiantly at Kyle but apologizes for what she’s done. She says she wants to make amends for what she did to Diane and admits that she does need to be punished. Before the police get involved, she wants the chance to clear her name. She claims that she returned to do the right thing, just like Diane did. Phyllis compares her actions to Diane’s, saying that both women returned because they could not be away from their children.

Phyllis speaks privately with Daniel. He can’t believe what Phyllis put her children through. Phyllis promises to never again be separated from her family.

Phyllis explains to Kyle that she resented Diane because she had everything Phyllis wanted and that she wanted Diane to be hurt. Jeremy Stark convinced her to go along with his plan to frame Diane for Phyllis’ murder. She claims that Stark took advantage of both she and Diane and the only way out for Phyllis was to hurt Jeremy. Kyle responds angrily that she killed Jeremy. Phyllis argues that she had to defend herself. Kyle points out skeptically that it’s Phyllis’ word against a dead man’s. She notes that her life is now in Kyle’s hands. She swears to Kyle she will make everything right. He finally agrees to not go to the police for now. He then turns his attention to Summer and asks her how long she’s known that Phyllis was alive.

Young & The Restless Transcript

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Sally: Hello, stranger.

Nick: I’m sorry that I’ve been out of touch, but I can explain.

Sally: Oh, I hope you don’t think we have to be joined at the hip. But what’s going on?

Nick: I had my hands full of something that’s not nearly as fun as being here with you. But I’m here now, and I want to hear everything. How’s baby girl? Is she still doing somersaults in there?

Sally: Actually, things could be better.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Faith: I thought I smelled you baking something. What’s going on?

Sharon: I’m cleaning and baking.

Faith: To distract yourself from current events?

Sharon: It had to be done. Now is as good a time as any. Are you in the mood for some cookies or some croquet? How are your roommates doing?

Faith: Completely freaked out for me. Sad for borgnine. He didn’t deserve that. And they’re worried about you.

Sharon: Me? Why?

Faith: When the mom who sends the best care packages is in trouble, the ladies at five west give a damn.

Sharon: Are you worried?

Faith: I mean, it does kind of feel like we’re living in a horror movie. Dead cat and a stalker? Just don’t go in the basement.

Sharon: That’s not going to happen, okay? We’re going to sort this out.

[ Slamming on door ]

Faith: What the– mom.

Sharon: Are you expecting anyone?

Faith: You?

Sharon: No.

[ Lock rattling ]

Summer: Thank you for meeting me.

Chance: Yeah, I had a few minutes. I’m assuming this is about phyllis?

Summer: Have you heard anything yet?

Chance: Summer, you’ll be the third or fourth person to know.

Summer: What would it take to call off the all-points bulletin?

Chance: Already told you. Bring her in.

Summer: Treating her like she’s a threat to public safety, it’s giving the wrong–

Chance: Look, she killed a man, summer.

Summer: Not by choice. It was kill or be killed.

Chance: All right, well, we need to hear the full story from her. Now, if that’s all you have to talk about, I got a lot of stuff to do.

Summer: No, wait. I– I’m just– I’m trying to picture it in my head so that I can manage my expectations.

Chance: For what?

Summer: My mom’s return. I mean, I didn’t think that it was possible for so long.

Chance: Yeah. You, uh– you got lucky.

Summer: I got lucky?

[ Chuckles ] You want to know how I got so lucky? Especially, considering the fact that stark could have killed my mom and nobody would have looked for her because he’d already faked her death? I got lucky because my mom was smart enough to save herself. I’m just saying that a woman like that who can do that, who can save herself when no one else is going to, that woman, she doesn’t deserve to come home to a prison cell.

Phyllis: You have to call me back, supergirl. Even if it’s bad news, please call me back.

[ Sighs ] Because now that kyle knows where I am… oh. My future is in kyle’s hands.

Diane: I meant what I said. For every aspect of planning a wedding, there are too many choices. I give up.

Jack: So, you’re okay with exchanging vows in a cow pasture?

Diane: [ Laughs ] With goats and hens as our guests? I don’t know. They might be better behaved than some.

Kyle: Wedding planning? I’m going to get as far away from here as possible.

Jack: Seems like only yesterday that you were planning your own vow renewal ceremony.

Diane: Ah, I loved that setting. It was so romantic, until tucker landed a helicopter in the backyard. Oh, we wanted to ask harrison to be our ring bearer.

Kyle: I’m sure he would love that, but he was our ring bearer.

Jack: Is that a problem?

Kyle: Dad, if I were you, I would do the exact opposite of what summer and I did. I think our vow renewal ceremony was bad luck. Everything was going along just fine, and then…

[ Snaps fingers ] Cursed.

Jack: Hey, hey. What’s gotten into you? Why are you talking like this?

Announcer: Additional

sponsorship provided by… -you got this buddy.

-During an asthma attack,

Jack: Kyle, is there something going on you want to talk to us about?

Kyle: No. Nothing. There is nothing I want to talk about. In fact, I don’t want any of this happening in my life at all, nothing– nothing feels right.

Diane: Because of summer? You two are such a team. Is she still sleeping in the pool house?

Kyle: We have a lot going on.

Diane: I know, I know, and I’m really sorry about that.

Kyle: Anyway, I– I– this should be a happy time for y’all and I don’t wanna bring you down.

Diane: Kyle, you know that parents can’t be happy unless their children are. Even an adult child.

[ Sighs ] This is all because of phyllis, who is out there somewhere. Am I wrong?

Kyle: Yeah, I’d better go.

Jack: Hey, you want some company?

Kyle: Yeah, I’m just gonna go to work. I have to solve a few problems there.

Diane: Kyle. We love you.

[ Door shuts closed ]

[ Lock rattling ]

[ Lock rattling ]

Mariah: Knock, knock. Is anybody home? Guess who forgot their key.

[ Sharon sighs in relief ]

Sharon: Mariah.

Mariah: Hey! I’m so, so sorry. I forgot my key at home and I didn’t think that I would be interrupting a croquet match?

Sharon: Um, I was just cleaning out a closet.

Mariah: Mom, if you were really that scared, you should have called the police.

Faith: Next time, say something sooner, so we don’t have to panic.

Mariah: I’m sorry–

Faith: You know that cameron is still out there.

Mariah: I know, I know. I– I wasn’t thinking.

Sharon: This just has us all on edge, which is why I want to apologize for what I’m about to say.

Faith: What?

Sharon: Faith, I think it’s time you leave.

Nick: I’m so sorry I wasn’t here.

Sally: You have a life.

Nick: You’re a big part of that life.

Sally: And I want to hear all about it.

Nick: It’s not a contest. Ladies first. What’s going on?

Sally: Don’t be alarmed. Doctor says we are not in the danger zone yet.

Nick: Already not liking this conversation.

Sally: What exactly do you know about pre-eclampsia?

Nick: Unfortunately, a lot. I’ve been down this road. Elevated blood pressure in pregnancies can lead to complications.

Sally: Yeah, well, um, I don’t have it… yet. And as long as I keep my blood pressure down, and maybe, get, I don’t know, approved for some prenatal yoga classes, then…

Nick: You sure you’re okay?

Sally: Yeah. Yeah, and I’m gonna keep it that way, you know? Very, very peaceful. Very calm. If I could just meditate this headache away.

Nick: Did you tell your doctor about that?

Sally: Yes, yeah. They said it could be from my medication, so I’m just going to grit my teeth and bear it.

Nick: You’re just gonna tough it out.

Sally: For now, yeah.

Nick: What can I do? What do you need from me?

Sally: Just you being here makes me feel better. I’ve told you this before, but you’re like magic.

Nick: I wish that trick worked in every other part of my life.

Sally: What fire were you putting out whenever I was trying to track you down?

Nick: Trying to figure out what will stress you more. Knowing or not knowing.

Sally: [ Sighs ] Okay. Cards on the table. All of ’em.

Nick: Okay. Several years ago, sharon and i put away a very bad man, but now he’s back and he is dangerous. (Tap, tap)

Faith: You want me to leave? I can’t abandon you. That’s against family policy. Tell her, mariah.

Mariah: You’re going to have to give me the updated terms, ’cause I don’t really know what rule she’s breaking.

Faith: Times get tough, we stick together.

Sharon: If anything happened to you, do you think I’d be able to forgive myself?

Faith: But I can protect myself.

Sharon: He knows who you are, where to find you. He knows how much you mean to me.

Mariah: You’re her achilles heel.

Sharon: He knows that I would do anything for you and he is evil enough to use that against me.

Mariah: And as a newly minted member of the mom club, mom’s gonna be a lot stronger knowing that you’re safe.

Faith: But– no. Don’t you see?

Sharon: I’ll be fine.

Faith: You won’t because you’ll be alone.

Sharon: What are you talking about?

Faith: If I leave, who is going to protect you? How the heck did he get past security? And what if it happens again? We don’t have rey anymore, mom. Mariah’s busy with the baby. Who’s gonna be here to play croquet? Or hold your hand when you’re scared, huh?

Sharon: I will be fine.

Faith: You always say that.

Sharon: That’s because it’s always true. Besides, I have nick, your grandparents, and the security team here is actually quite top tier.

Faith: But he got past them anyways, which means cameron is really that dangerous.

Sharon: I love that you want to protect me, but that’s not your job.

Mariah: Sorry, kid.

Sharon: I want you someplace safe, okay? So I don’t have to worry about you.

Faith: You can’t just push me away like that. This is so not fair.

Sharon: Faith, do this for me.

Faith: I will go, but I’m not happy about it. When I text, I want answers immediately, or I’m calling emergency numbers and I’m on the next plane back.

Sharon: Well, thanks for the warning.

Faith: And the second that psycho is back behind bars, I’m coming home. I mean it.

Sharon: Yeah.

Summer: It was self-defense. He coerced her into doing everything she did. I mean– chance, you know my mom, she’s not a criminal. She was doing what she had to do to survive.

Chance: Like I said, it would help to hear all of this from phyllis.

Summer: Why don’t you interview nate hastings and elena dawson? I mean, they were there. They were at the gala, they examined my mom, and they said, in their medical opinions, she was in distress. I mean, that’s gotta mean something, right?

Chance: Just gonna help explain some things–

Summer: He drugged her! He gave something to her that affected her physically and mentally. I mean, how else would he have gotten her to go along with this scheme?

Chance: You don’t know that for a fact.

Summer: But it’s possible. Shadow of a doubt, it could help strengthen her case.

Chance: Look, the only thing that we found in her system was the poison, that’s it.

Summer: Well, did they check for an agent that could have affected her brain? Did they check for that?

Chance: Summer, there is no evidence to back up phyllis’ side of the story, none.

[ Summer sighs ] We don’t even have her word, all we have is hearsay.

Summer: Chance, she’s been through enough, I just want her to be able to come home.

Chance: You do know that any actions you take could result in you being treated as an accessory?

Summer: I don’t scare easily anymore. The only thing that really scares me is the idea of losing my mom forever because I’ve been through that once, and that was enough.

Chance: Look, summer, in the eyes of the law–

Summer: Oh, you mean, in the eyes of christine. ‘Cause she’s the problem, right? She’s got a vendetta against my mom.

Chance: This case has nothing to do with personal grievances.

Summer: Are you new here?

[ Chance chuckles ]

Chance: Okay, so you don’t think she can be fair?

Summer: I think that christine has the opportunity to publicly humiliate my mom. Sure, justice might be blind, but our enemies don’t forget. And that’s when you’re– you’re supposed to be able to turn to your friends, and I– chance, I’m just asking you is there anything that you can do?

[ Chance sighs ]

Nick: So, I gave the guy a very strongly-worded suggestion that he leave town immediately. We will see how brave he is.

Sally: Did this suggestion have anything to do with your knuckles?

[ Nick sighs ]

Nick: Nobody got hurt. And I can take care of myself. Right now, I’m more concerned about you. Are those tears in your eyes?

Sally: It’s just the cat. And your hand. Gosh, this is the saddest thing I’ve ever heard.

Nick: I probably shouldn’t have brought up the cat.

Sally: I mean, who does that? Seriously, the poor thing was so defenseless, I– god, what a monster.

Nick: The cat was just a message letting us know that he can get to us whenever he wants.

Sally: Well, that guy better hope that I never see him.

Nick: Listen to me, sally. If you do see him, you run. You call the police, okay? You don’t talk to him, you don’t even catch him looking at you.

Sally: Okay, well, what does he look like?

[ Sally sighs ]

Nick: Here.

Sally: Oh, my god. I know him.

Nick: You recognize him? You saw him? Where?

Sally: In the park. I met him. Oh, my god.

Nick: I need you to tell me everything cameron said or did. Did he say or do anything that made you feel threatened?

Sally: No. He couldn’t have been nicer. You’re the one that’s scaring me.

Nick: I’m sorry. It’s just, if you knew this guy the way I do–

Sally: He was like, two feet away from me.

Nick: This face?

Sally: Yes. Absolutely.

Nick: Tell me everything.

Sally: Okay, well, I was walking through the park when I got dizzy, double vision.

Nick: Right.

Sally: And then, a man, this man, just came up to me–

Nick: Son of a bitch!

Sally: And he asked me if I was okay, and I– I told him that I had someone else to call.

Nick: Then you called me?

Sally: Yeah, and then, he stayed with me until help came.

Nick: That guy?

Sally: Yeah. He was nice.

Nick: He’s not nice, sally. He’s not. All right, cameron kirsten is dangerous as hell.

Sally: Okay, well, he couldn’t possibly know that you and I are together.

Nick: He is thorough. He is making his way into sharon’s inner circle. I mean, he showed himself to you and to faith.

Sally: Okay, okay, but there’s no way that this guy could’ve staged to be my knight in shining armor. I mean, he was in the right place at the right time. It was a coincidence. It wasn’t some targeted strike.

Nick: How can you be sure of that?

Sally: First of all, no one could have possibly known that I was gonna get dizzy. Not even me. And I have also staged a few accidental meet and greets in the past, I know what it looks like, I know what it takes. This was not choreographed. He had no idea who I was.

Nick: Well, we need to make sure it stays that way.

Diane: Here you go.

Jack: Thank you. Kyle’s right, you know.

Diane: About the curse of vow renewals?

Jack: No, we need to get back to the business of planning our wedding.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Did you get the feeling that there’s more going on with him than he’s telling us?

Jack: Kyle is a grown man entitled to keep the details of his marriage to himself.

Diane: Yes, but how can we help him if don’t know what the problem is?

Jack: By staying out of it.

[ Si

Diane: This is all phyllis’ fault.

Jack: Look, all we can do is be here for kyle when he needs us. In the meantime, we have other problems brewing.

[ Twig snaps ]

Mariah: I kickbox and I know how to use my pepper spray.

Kyle: At the same time? I’m scared.

Mariah: Oh, kyle.

[ Laughs ] It’s you.

Kyle: What was that warning for? Everything all right?

Mariah: No, it wasn’t– it wasn’t a warning, it was– listing my special skills. You know, like you do at the end of a resume. I juggle, I waterski, I speak french.

Kyle: None of which is true.

Mariah: Like you don’t lie on your resume, kyle?

Kyle: Oh, in terms of special skills, I got you beat. I know how to marry the woman of my dreams and turn her into the invisible woman with a heart of stone.

[ Mariah laughs ]

Mariah: I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry, I don’t mean to laugh, it’s just– you look awful. Like you’ve been sleeping on the wrong side of the bed.

Kyle: God, that’s odd, ’cause I’ve had the whole bed to myself.

Mariah: I– what can I say? Grief is– is rough.

Kyle: It’s true. But summer stopped grieving a long time ago.

Mariah: Kyle, it’s been three months. Her mother just died.

Kyle: Mariah, can you keep a secret?

Mariah: Why would you ask me that? You know I can’t keep a secret.

Kyle: Well, you have to keep this one.

Mariah: Um, okay. Yes, I can do that for you. So, what’s happening?

Kyle: It feels like everything’s happening. And what I do next will change the course of my and summer’s lives.

[ Door clicks open ]

Phyllis: Hi. Oh, gosh. I’ve been texting you like a crazy person.

Summer: Well, I have been busy.

Phyllis: I should think so after kyle showing up here.

Summer: I have bad news.

Phyllis: All right. How bad?

Summer: Everything is about to hit the fan.

Phyllis: Everything everything? Okay. You told kyle the whole truth, didn’t you? ( )

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue. And we’re done.

Sally: You look like you need to go.

Nick: I really do. I have to check on sharon and faith. If I leave you here alone, will you be okay?

Sally: Um, yes. Yeah, yeah. I will be extra careful and I already have the voice assistant programmed on my phone. All I have to do is– hold on, watch this. Call nick.

[ Phone ringing ]

Nick: I mean, extra points for ingenuity. I’m not kidding. If you see this man again, you treat him like he is poison, okay?

Sally: Okay. But the same goes for you. Please don’t get into any more fist fights. Even if it is just an innocent wall.

Nick: I’ve called in backup. The right people are on alert. My dad’s security team, gcpd, they’re on this. Cameron kirsten’s time is up.

Kyle: So that’s what’s been going on. What do you think I should do?

Mariah: No, you– you can’t ask me to do that.

Kyle: You’re still my best friend.

Mariah: And as such, I’m obligated to tell you the truth.

Kyle: That’s what I want.

Mariah: No, I– I don’t think that’s actually what you want because if I tell you the truth, it could put our friendship at risk and I– I just can’t risk that.

Kyle: What could you possibly say that would ruin–

Mariah: I have tried very hard because you love her to see the good in summer and accept her. That’s what friends do. But friends also speak up when they see trouble. I don’t trust summer. I never have. I don’t know if I ever will. There. I said it. I’m sorry.

Kyle: You should have seen us in italy. We were so happy.

Mariah: But now you’re here in her natural habitat where she’s surrounded by people who encourage and normalize her bad behavior. I know that you love her, I do, and love is amazing, but the truth is, she chose her mother over you, kyle. She knew phyllis was alive and let your mother get blamed for phyllis’ murder. I– I mean, to me, that is reprehensible. And if you hate me for saying all of this, then you know what? So be it. I love you enough to risk losing you by telling you what’s in my heart. Which is more than I can say for your wife.

Summer: We left here, we went home, he started piecing everything together and I– I had to come clean. I didn’t have a choice.

Phyllis: Okay. Full disclosure, right? Okay. How’heak

Summer: It was horrible. And the insults that he was hurling at me, I mean…

Phyllis: Oh, summer, I’m so sorry–

Summer: No.

Phyllis: I’m so heartbroken over this. I’m so sorry.

Summer: He’s right though. He’s right about all of it. I mean, I– I chose you over everyone. I chose you over his mom and over him.

[ Scoffs ]

Phyllis: I’m sick about this. I really am.

[ Summer sighs ] I want to fix it. I’m sorry. Um, this is all my fault.

Summer: Yeah, it absolutely is, but you know what? We actually don’t have time for that right now because we need to go.

Phyllis: Why? What’s wrong?

Summer: Kyle is furious, mom. You’re no longer safe here. We need to leave.

Diane: I can’t believe a woman as brilliant and confident as ashley is rushing to marry that conman, tucker. And you really think it’s all part of a scheme to take over jabot?

Jack: All signs seem to point that way.

Diane: Well, should i look for another job to try and avoid a family war?

Jack: You aren’t going anywhere. Billy and I are working on figuring this out.

Diane: Well, I’m sure tucker is using ashley’s unfounded fears about her place in the company to provoke her. You know, maybe this was part of his plan all along when he wanted me to gather info about jabot. Maybe it’s part of his long game, something he’s been planning for months or years even?

Jack: Billy and i still don’t know who’s behind this, right now is how do we stop them?

Nick: Hey. I heard you had an eventful few hours?

Adam: [ Sighs ] Uh, yeah. That little girl is keeping me on my toes. Since I can’t watch her 24 hours a day yet, I bought this from the pharmacy. It’s a blood pressure monitor. Doctor said sally might not even need it, but I figured better safe.

Nick: Yeah, it’s good thinking.

Adam: Well, my girl deserves the best. Uh, when I said my girl, I meant the baby.

Nick: Yeah, I know who you were talking about.

Adam: You think I overstepped?

Nick: No, I think that’ll make sally feel better, so it’s smart.

>>Dam: Sure. Sure.

Nick: Hey, before you go, I have a favor to ask.

Adam: Okay.

Nick: I need you to look out for sally for me. I used to pre-rinse dishes cause my old detergent

Mariah: Summer chose her mother over you, okay? And the way that they’re always so busy, it’s like they’re– they’re plotting or scheming and that’s amazing. When that energy is– is focused towards merchandising and marketing, but it is awful when it’s towards friends and family.

Kyle: I’ve known summer for so long. I thought I knew what she was capable of.

Mariah: Summer is her mother’s daughter.

Kyle: That’s easy to say, but you don’t know her like I–

Mariah: I know you and we wouldn’t be sitting here having this conversation if she didn’t break your heart past healing. Kyle, summer has changed you in the following ways–

Kyle: Oh, stop it.

Mariah: No. You need an intervention. Summer is– is going to be summer, but if you’re okay with the lying and the manipulation and always being put in second for the rest of your life then I… I’m going to have to figure out a way not to be friends with you.

Kyle: What? You can’t do that. I– are you serious?

Mariah: No. Yes. Look, I– bottom line, I have a kid now. I cannot be around all of that recklessness. I just can’T.

Kyle: You think I want that for harrison? Full time chaos?

Mariah: You’re choosing it.

Kyle: She’s his mother.

Mariah: Okay. I’m very new at this whole parenting thing, so grain of salt, but at its most basic level, we are supposed to protect our kids, right? Keep them out of harm’s way.

Kyle: Of course.

Mariah: So, if phyllis and summer can do what they did to you and your mother and pretty much everyone else in town, they’re dangerous.

Kyle: What am i supposed to do, mariah?

Mariah: You know what, kyle. And I am so, so sorry.

Adam: What the hell is cameron even doing here? Hey, if he’s looking to cause trouble for anybody, you may need to do something–

Nick: If sharon told you about this guy, I’m sure she said that making smart decisions is not his strong suit.

Adam: I don’t even understand why they would let this guy on the street, so he can continue to torment sharon and hurt other people?

Nick: We are dealing with it, but until he’s out of town and no longer a threat–

Adam: I will look after sally and the baby. No problem.

Nick: I appreciate it. Thank you. And keep me posted if there are any problems.

Adam: Well, what is a problem is that you have now brought this chaos to sally’s door because it’s the last thing that she needs right now.

Nick: He is attacking the margins of sharon’s life, all right? From what I know, he doesn’t know who sally is or how she’s connected to me.

Adam: Yeah, and yet you are asking me to look out for her after you warned me to stay away. So that means you are worried and not just about the pregnancy, you’re worried about this freak.

Nick: We don’t even know if sally figures into his plans, but there’s no harm in being extra careful, right?

Adam: You know what I find telling, nick? Is during this time of crisis, two women in your life need attention and care and which one you’re choosing to focus on.

Nick: You gonna look after sally or not?

Adam: I already told you that I would.

Nick: Then, we’re done here.

Adam: Mm-hmm.

Phyllis: Did kyle use those words? Did he say he was going to the police?

Summer: No.

Phyllis: No? Okay then. Good.

Summer: I haven’t talked to him since our fight though. There’s no reason he wouldn’t go to the police.

Phyllis: Except because he loves you.

Summer: How do i sneak you out of here?

Phyllis: Um, I don’t know. What does it look like on the outside? I mean, what are my chances of getting caught?

Summer: I talked to chance–

Phyllis: You talked to chance?

Summer: It’s not good, mom.

Phyllis: You talked to chance? Wow. Really? You talked to chance? And you’re getting tips from the police about your fugitive mom?

Summer: I was taking countermeasures, yes.

Phyllis: Okay, well, that’s smart. Devious too. I don’t know whether to be proud or cry, quite honestly.

Summer: Mom, are you ready to run?

Phyllis: What if I’m not?

Summer: How can you not be ready?

Phyllis: I’ve been hoping for the best all this time. Maybe I should prepare for the worst, summer. Maybe I should put an end to this and let chance arrest me.

Kyle: Hey, chance. You got a minute?

Chance: Actually, I don’T. I came to tell you exactly what I told your wife. There have been zero credible sightings of phyllis.

Kyle: Until now.

Chance: Who has seen her now?

Kyle: I have.

Chance: You know where she is?

Kyle: Follow me. And we’re done.

Summer: Grab your stuff, put on a wig, you’re not turning yourself in.

Phyllis: Okay, summer, hear me out. Just hear me out, okay? I call chance and I tell him where I am. And I’ll say, I wanted to keep on running but you fought me every step of the way.

Summer: That’s not what I want.

Phyllis: No, but everybody wins. Don’t you see that? Everyone. I mean, chance arrests a big fish, he gets a promotion, he gets accommodation. Kyle’s parents see you as the perfect daughter-in-law who sacrificed everything.

Summer: No, no.

Phyllis: It’s the only way out.

Summer: Mom, we have not struggled to keep you out of prison for this long just to give up now.

Phyllis: I want to give you your life back. You deserve to have your life back. A life that you love so much.

[ Sighs ]

Summer: You would really do that for me?

Phyllis: I’d do anything for you. Anything. Let’s do this.

Jack: This family has been through enough. If there is any way to cut off ashley’s coup attempt before it happens, I want to know about it.

Diane: And her biggest fear is that I’ll have a more powerful role at jabot.

Jack: Seems to be.

[ Diane sighs ]

Diane: Then, why don’t we scare the hell out of her? Promote me. Think about it. This way, we’d show them that the playing field is level and we are ready for battle. She doesn’t have the numbers or the support. She needs to know now before things get heated that we are ready to fight. We want peace, but we’re prepared for war.

Sally: What is that?

Adam: I– uh, I was walking through the pharmacy and I saw a blood pressure cuff.

Sally: And you thought of me? That is so depressing.

Adam: Well, I– I hope that you never need it. Too. Thank you.

Adam: If the next few months are as uneventful as I predict, just donate it to a worthy cause.

Sally: I will do that. It’s the worst gift ever, by the way.

Adam: Well, you’re gonna have to get used to putting on a lot of fake smiles for all the boring gifts from now on ’cause the baby will get all the good ones.

Sally: As it should be. Shouldn’t you be somewhere doing something?

Adam: The truth?

Sally: It’s always a good option.

Adam: I’m exactly where I need to be.

Sally: Hm. Did someone suggest you keep a watchful eye?

Adam: If nick and i are working together, you know it’s for a special cause.

Nick: You okay? Is it faith?

Sharon: Yeah. She’s leaving. I’m sending her away.

Nick: That’s smart. Just until we get this guy back in prison.

Sharon: I know, but–

Nick: You hate it that he’s got any power over you and you’re gonna miss your daughter like crazy. Or maybe this is dragging up some bad memories that you haven’t fully dealt with yet?

Sharon: I’m sorry.

Nick: No, sharon, don’T. Don’t apologize. I know where cameron is. I tracked him down. He’s at the athletic club.

Sharon: What happened?

Nick: I just, uh, let him know that we’re watching him and what will happen if he tries anything else.

Sharon: Do you think you got through to him?

Nick: I hope so. But I’m glad faith is taking off. Just in case this dirtbag tries to press his luck.

[ Banging on door ]

Chance: Gcpd, open up.

[ Knocking on door ] Phyllis, police. Phyllis? Are you sure–

Kyle: She was here.

Chance: Well, another dead end.

Kyle: No. Somebody tipped her off and helped her take off in a hurry. My wife. If you find summer, you’ll find phyllis.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Hello. I was going to give it another ten minutes, then I was going to put a note at the door. Why didn’t you text me, tell me you were waiting? Some things are better said face to face. So, uh, why did you want to see me? I need your help with anna.

[ Sighs ] Uh. We can, uh, talk privately here. Mm. Is this where you met with dex when you hired him to spy on sonny? Uh, sometimes. Why? Because I want your opinion on dex. Is he trustworthy? Would you put the life of someone you cared about in his hands? That was your ticket out. It’s pretty useless now. This is the footage of sonny at the pikeman deal? Mm-hmm. Michael gave it to my mom. She could have traded this footage to the feds in exchange for them dropping the charges against her and drew.

[ Scoffs ] You risked your life to get that footage, and she destroyed it because protecting sonny was more important to her. Okay. Just say it. What? You hate it, don’t you? What’s to hate? You wanted a new car. You got the one you wanted. How could I possibly hate that? Okay, first of all, it’s not a car — it’s a truck. And it’s got four-wheel drive, off-roading capabilities, advanced driver assistance. And you can operate the off-roading capabilities in automatic mode or manual. It’d be perfect for us to go camping. You want us to go camping? Why did you insist on meeting away from the house? Well, blackmail works so much better when there’s no one to overhear. Poor drew. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong girlfriend.

[ Scoffs ] You weren’t after aurora’s ceo — you wanted to take down carly. I don’t know where you came up with this, ned, but you couldn’t be more wrong. I just overheard your conversation with your lawyer, martin. You know, everyone believes that I was the one who handed carly and drew over to the sec, but it was you all along.


Where are you going with this? Have you reconsidered trading the flash drive to the fbi so you and drew stay out of prison? Or do you think that dex may have to testify because he’s on the footage? The footage no longer exists. I smashed the flash drive. Mom, why would you do that?! That — you should’ve held onto it in case there’s no other way out for you and drew. The footage was dangerous. It could have gotten sonny and dex killed. And besides, I have a much better use for dex. You sure you want to hold onto that? There’s no way to retrieve the footage. I don’t want to retrieve it. I want to physically destroy the flash drive. I can’t have anything left to imply that I was ever collecting evidence against sonny. Hey, look, from here on in, I need to be the most loyal, trustworthy, and discreet employee that sonny has. Take his orders, risk your life protecting him to make him richer. And you’re okay with that? It’s not about what’s okay. It’s about survival. You don’t enjoy camping? The thrill of the great outdoors? Sleeping close to nature, catching a fish in a stream and then cooking it over a log fire? I’m a city girl. Okay? I like sleeping in a bed, and I like my fish to be caught and prepared by someone else, preferably a five-star chef. What about fresh air? Hiking? Everything you need in a backpack. Are we hiking or are we running from the bear who’s trying to eat us? What about cuddling up next to each other in front of a campfire? What about cuddling up next to each other in front of a fire pit at the q boathouse? Oh, yeah. I could totally see that. You, me, a warm fire… mm-hmm. …Olivia bringing us lasagna, ned droning on about his beloved elq, and tracy lecturing me — yet again — about how I’m not good enough for you. Okay. Okay. Okay. The q estate might not be the most romantic, but there are alternatives. Such as? Nightclubs, live music. You might even be tempted to get back in the game. Oh, my heart is very much out of the music biz, but it seems like yours is still in it. So tell me again — why did you go back to deception? So much for your “upright and honorable” routine. I don’t really like that it’s come to this, tracy, but a guy’s got to do what a guy’s got to do, and I know that you understand the language of blackmail. I understand more about the process than you do, apparently. You see, blackmail requires leverage. You have none to use against me. Let’s start with deception, shall we? You coerced brook lynn to go back to work there. Where brook lynn chooses to work is her business. Well, that’s my point exactly — if it were up to brook lynn, then she’d be working in music. She’s at deception under your orders. I kind of feel like lucy coe would love to hear that. Fine. Get lucy coe down here. Tell her everything. Did you say you’re looking for lucy coe? You look surprised. Did you — did you think you were getting arrested? Well, given our history, I couldn’t be sure. Mm. Falsifying my death… I’m sure you had reasons for doing that. So did anna. Mm. Uh, so, is this an official inquiry? Uh, no, it’s off the record and personal. Uh… look, that article that was in the sun about anna’s wsb file — that was pretty brutal. How are you hoping I can help? Well, you’re victor’s son, and your father was the head of wsb for a lot of years, gave him a lot of opportunity to plant a lie in anna’s file that could, I don’t know, be used as a time bomb that he could just set off whenever he wanted to. Dante, my father, was a mean and spiteful man. He had full faith in his plan, but he was prepared to exact revenge in the event of his failure, in which I think he felt anna devane could always play a part. He was right. And now he’s making her pay for it. Well, I want to clear anna’s name.

[ Breathes deeply ] So how do we prove that her file was doctored? I was curious about carly and drew’s legal situation, so I asked my lawyer about it, ned. You must have misinterpreted. It’s too late to save this, nina. As soon as you eliminate me, you become the obvious suspect, the one who has the most to gain by sending carly off to prison. Although you took a big risk, and maybe you’ve realized that by now, and maybe that’s the reason why you called a meeting with your lawyer. You must have realized that even though sonny and carly are divorced, sonny would do anything to protect her. When he finds out that you were the one who pointed the sec at carly? You and sonny are done.


You want to come inside? That’s up to you. I don’t want to intrude.

[ Breathes sharply ] I don’t know. Whatever it is that you’re about to say, I feel like I don’t want to hear it on the doorstep.

[ Keys jingling ] I’d offer you a drink, but… would you like some water? No, thank you. I’m going to have a drink. Yeah. Yeah, go ahead. If you don’t mind.

[ Keys jingle ] Go ahead. Go ahead and — and call me a hypocrite. Is that why you think I came here? Mm-hmm, yeah. I mean, yeah, obviously. After all these years I’ve spent upholding the law as a special agent or police commissioner, investigating you for various crimes and questioning you about how you can possibly reconcile breaking the law with being a loving parent, and now you get to find out that I was a criminal myself? Actually, worse than that, um, a double agent, which is to say a traitor. Are you finished? ‘Cause I wasn’t gonna say any of that. Okay. Well, what were you going to say? You know what? You’re upset. I’ll come back some other time. No, don’T. Please wait. I’m sorry. Not on my best. Please stay. What better use do you have for dex? Before I answer that, what’s your assessment of dex?

[Stammers] I guess — I mean, I like him. He took on a nearly impossible job and he did it well. He was under relentless pressure for months and he didn’t crack. And he worked his way into sonny’s confidence, despite being involved with josslyn, which sonny didn’t like. What do you know about his time in the military? He was discharged from the army because of a personal issue, but his combat experience is excellent — the highest rating. He had a bunch of commendations for keeping a cool head under fire, which is one of the main reasons I hired him. But why are you so interested? Because I want you to hire dex to do another job. Why aren’t you angrier? Why aren’t you angry, period? Both my brother and my mom had the chance to set you free, yet they’re leaving you trapped. Michael gave me a job. The job changed. It happens. Oh, okay. So you’re totally fine just working for sonny now. It’s not about what’s fine, okay? That’s the situation that I’m in. I spent months earning sonny’s trust, trying to convince him to let me in. Just tonight, he gave me a lecture about how I’m “in this” now, how I have to commit. Okay? I don’t have the option to leave. Actually, you might. You can just ask sonny to let you go. Do you always eavesdrop on private conversations? I wasn’t eavesdropping, ma’am. I was just doing my job. We’re about to resume poolside cocktail service. Well, don’T. I want privacy. That means no bartender, no guests, no staff, including yourself, just me and mr. Cain. And if anybody has any questions about that, they can contact olivia quartermaine, my daughter-in-law, who’s the co-owner of this place. Wow! That was rude and pointless. Chewing out a hotel employee just to make yourself feel better because it’s not going to keep brook lynn in place at deception. Why don’t you focus on your own problems? Because you seem to have enough of them. As it happens, you are the answer to my problems. Brook lynn: We’ve been over this. I went back to deception because I really love those ladies. And frankly, lucy and maxie really need me. Really? They seem like pretty savvy businesswomen. They are, but they don’t really understand the nuances of promotion on social media. And music? I’ll still do music on a part-time basis. Music is your passion. That’s one of the first things I learned about you. And what happened to change that? I found a new passion. Deception? You. Hey. Am I interrupting? Olivia, no. Please join us. Oh, I-I think that ned is waiting for me out on the terrace. Oh, my dad is probably on phone calls and in his e-mails. Come, sit down. Chase will tell you all about his new truck.

[ Gasps ] A new truck?!

[ Chuckles ] Tell me all about it!

[ Chuckles ] In the l ong run,you’ve done yourself a favor. You are much better off without sonny corinthos. Sonny and I are engaged. Oh. Not for long. Gee, ned, most people say, “congratulations.” Nina, just accept the fact that you and sonny will not be living happily ever after. You know, that tip was anonymous. There’s no way that anyone will be able to prove that you did it, ned. Because I didn’t do it —

you did. No. No one’s gonna have to know who’s responsible for this. Just keep doing what you’re doing. Keep insisting that you didn’t do anything. And the people who know you, the people who really matter, they’ll believe you. Eventually. I have no intention of taking the fall for you, nina. You did this. And you better find a way to clean it up. You — excuse me, nina. The pool attendant just told me that tracy quartermaine closed down the entire pool area because she wanted privacy. For what? I don’t know. But apparently, drew cain is out there. Drew? Drew’s here? Oh. I need to talk to him. No, no, ned! Wait! Ohh.


[ Knock on door ] Yeah. Come in.

[ Door opens ] Hi. Oh, hey. How’d you get in here? Oh, my boyfriend, he’s a cop. Mm-hmm. And the desk sergeant, he bends the rules for me occasionally. Really? Mm-hmm. Mm.

[ Breathes deeply ] Well, I don’t blame him. I would have done the same thing. Mm, lucky me. Mm-hmm. Uh, why are you here? Oh. Did — w– was I supposed to do something or be somewhere? Was there somewhere I was supposed to be? Well, you know, you were supposed to be home, like, two hours ago. Oh. Right. I’m sorry. Just, uh… what? I mean, I figured you were working on a case, but…

[Breathes deeply] I come in here and you’re just sitting here, and I got no text or call. Right, right, right, right. So I just kind of want to know what’s going on. I’m sorry. I’m just, uh, a little worried about a friend. When the news story broke about you, I started thinking about all the headlines that I’ve been through over the years. Yeah. They don’t feel like headlines now. They seem more like takedowns, quite honestly.

[ Sniffles ] Two were seared in my memory — “wife of crime lord dies in a car bomb.” That’s what — the headline I saw the next morning after my wife died. And the other one was “corinthos son killed in a suspected mob hit” — that was morgan. And I was already in hell from all the, you know, pain [Sighs] And grief… it’s a lot to take, you know? My private life all over the world for everybody to read, everybody to see, everybody to judge. And they don’t know what happened to me. They don’t know how I felt.

[ Sighs ] Just like I don’t know why you did what you did. And that’s what I’m here to tell you… that I’m sorry for how you felt. And I’m sorry for what happened to you. Thank you. Thank you for sharing that. I feel as if sometimes, I just… you know… I just get in my own way. That headline was just a takedown — you know that, right? Well, that’s the problem. It’s not. That is the most difficult part of all of this, is that the news story is — is true. I mean, it — it’s — it’s factually accurate. I did those things. There were reasons. There were justifications. Excuses.

[ Whispering ] You’re being hard on yourself. Well, okay. So there was a context then that the media has chosen to leave out, but I can’t deny it happened.

[ Voice breaking ] You know, I made a lot of mistakes at the beginning of my career, and I think I’ve spent most of my life trying to make up for them. Now it’s just come and bit me, right in the most public way. I have done things, allegedly…

[ Both laugh ] …But I’ve done them. Some I, uh, felt there was a reason to do them. There was others that I regret. Yeah. [ Sniffles ] But I always tell myself that… my life, who I am now, should not be limited to the worst things that I’ve done in my life. Right. Just like you. You’re A…great mother. Great grandmother.

[ Chuckles ] You are courageous. You are brilliant. And no — no matter… I will always consider you my friend. For whatever that’s worth. It’s worth a lot. Michael: The peace between me and sonny right now is — it’s pretty fragile. He’s going to be suspicious if I hire dex out from under him. I want you to pay dex to keep working for sonny. Look, since jason died, sonny doesn’t have someone to be his right hand. What about brick? Brick’s great, but he’s based on the west coast. He can’t be by sonny’s side day in and day out. But dex can. And given your description, he’s obviously qualified. In what way specifically? I want dex to use all of his skills to protect sonny, to follow orders, and if he sees trouble coming, he has to tell you, and, michael,

you need to advise him on how to help sonny. When I met with sonny in his office that day and asked him to fire you, he told me that you would have to go in yourself and you would have to ask him. But he never said anything about refusing to let you quit. Everybody knows that we’re together now. It’s not a secret anymore. Sonny can’t just disappear you and expect nobody to ask questions. And he already knows that i don’t want you working for him. It makes perfect sense that you’d quit. But, josslyn — I’m not saying it will be easy, but it can be done. You would just have to meet with him and respectfully tell him that you want out. Except… I don’t want out. You see, ned’s got connections at the sec. He can make this investigation into me and to carly — he can make it just go away. And you think you can force ned into getting the sec to back off? No, I-I don’T. But I think you can.

[ Laughs ] Oh, I love your sense of humor and your imaginative fantasy world. No fantasy here, tracy. You either persuade ned or I tell him the truth — that you dragged brook lynn into potential intellectual property theft, malfeasance, corporate espionage. These are activities that carry the potential for criminal penalties, tracy. So how is your son going to react when he finds out that you put your granddaughter at risk?

[ Running footsteps ] Drew! There’s something I have to tell you. Ned!


You need to not do that. Why are you not taking my calls? I don’t want to. I-I’d like to smash my phone, actually. And I– and I’d like to… put the sim card down the waste disposal. Can I join you?

[ Door closes ] I’m sorry. For what? I’m sorry it — it was my father who’s done this to you. God, I hate victor. I really… I hated him when he was alive, and I-I think I loathe him even more now that he’s dead.

[ Breathes deeply ] You know, if there is a hell… I hope he burns there for all eternity. Me, too. He didn’t do this to me, though. I did this to myself. Well, who is this friend, and what made them keep you here? Uh, you kn ow that hit pieceon anna in the sun about her being a double agent? Yeah. Well, it’s true. What? I — I mean, I just assumed it was a lie. I know. So did I. So I called valentin over here to see if he could help me exonerate her. Well, valentin loves anna. Of course he’ll want to help her. Yeah. There’s some things he said about classified information and about how ugly it is when it sees the light of day, which is why it’s classified. And these are things

i should know, because the stuff that I did for the wsb, the last thing I would want is for it to be plastered on the front page of anything.

[ Breathes sharply ] I just feel bad for anna. I don’t know how she’s going to build her life back again. Hey. It’s possible. I mean, after all, you did. You…want to work for sonny? I want to stay in port charles. -Mostly for you. -Mm-hmm. But also because I-I like it here. I like a lot of the people that I’ve met and… look, it’s starting to feel like home. I haven’t had one of those since I was a kid.

[ Breathes deeply ] Sometimes I forget how different our lives have been.

[ Breathes sharply ] I take so many things for granted. Some things you maybe never had. Well, the advantages of not having things is that, when you get them? You value them and you don’t want to let them go. I like what I have here. I want to stay. You don’t have to work for sonny to stay. I can’t think of anything I’d rather do. Okay, let me get this straight. So, you want me to be what — sonny’s guardian angel while dex does all the legwork? Yes. So instead of trying to get sonny sent to prison, you want dex and i to work together to keep him out of pentonville? To keep him safe, to monitor his business ventures, to provide a — a level head and counsel? Right. So everything jason used to do, now dex and I would be doing together? Yes.

[ Scoffs ] Except there’s one obvious catch. Sonny can never know. I got you. Alright. I got you. Here. Here we go. Here we go. Alright. Okay. Is he breathing? Drew: Just call 911!

[ Water splashing ]

[ Drew grunting ] I gotcha, bud.

[ Drew grunts ] It’s alright. I got you. I got you. My — my adult son just — just fell in the metro court pool… okay. …And he hit his head and he’s not breathing! Alright, come on, ned. Come on, ned. Here we go. Come on. Come on!


Ohhh yesss. To face robert, you know? Not even robert scor I mean, you knew I was a double agent, right? I mean, you knew I was a double agent, right? Yeah. And you know that espionage is a shadowy game. It’s all compromise. There’s nothing either good nor bad. Everything’s a varying shade of gray. And no one can claim to be entirely pure of intention. Certainly not me. Mm. Not even robert scorpio. Mm. I’m not really afraid

[Clears throat] To face robert, you know? I mean, he — he knew everything. Found out years ago. And robin was aware — maybe not of all the gory details, but she knew enough. So who is it you’re worried about?

[ Voice breaking ] Mm. I think the people that it’s going to affect the most that are going to look at me differently are, um, emma and noah. I don’t get it. You or drew or both of you could be sent to federal prison for insider trading, and your priority is to protect sonny? Michael. My problems with the sec are for me and drew to figure out. But when you showed me that flash drive, it proves how vulnerable your father is. Now, pikeman is a defense contractor, right? Yeah. They have ties to government and potentially enemies in government. Yes, a challenge your father has never dealt with before. When you showed me that footage of sonny taking that delivery, it was evidence that he violated national security. If you hadn’t changed your mind, sonny would be in prison right now. Donna and avery’s lives would be destroyed. All of our lives would be in danger. I need you to step up and protect your father. Okay. What — what — what if I’m willing, but dex isn’t? I have a high school diploma, no college courses, no interest in taking any. What kind of a job can I get? Security? Doorman at the metro court. You were in security before, and there’s nothing wrong with making a good, honest living. I’m not as noble as you might think I am. Look, working for sonny pays a hell of a lot more than your honest living, and I’m — I’m good at it. Okay? Ohh. Sonny is paying me to do things I already know how to do, and I’m willing to accept a certain amount of risk. And are willing to break the law. The worst thing I’ve ever seen sonny do is hang me from a meat hook. That could have been a lot worse. But I survived — thanks to you. Ever since the ambush at the warehouse when I saved sonny’s life, his attitude towards me has changed. He’s giving me more opportunities. He’s trusting me more. This is my best option, joss, and I’m going to take it. Unless it’s going to cost me you. Chase did all the research. He could tell you all the specs. Okay. D-does it have four-wheel drive? Advanced driver assist? Hands-free technology? Olivia’s brothers own a garage in brooklyn. Nice. Uh, and to answer your question, yes, yes, and yes. Yes! Then — then — then, don’t think, do. And — and may I ask, what is the special reason you’ve decided to buy this fancy new truck? I came into some money doing the whole singing thing. Like I promised. And now that I’m back to being a cop, I thought I would treat myself with the truck of my dreams. Well, congratulations.

[ Hurried footsteps ] Sorry to interrupt. Olivia, the paramedics are coming up the service elevator. There’s been a slip-and-fall at the pool. Breathe, dammit! Come on! Guys, get in here. Okay. Take over. You got it. Listen, he’s — he’s been unconscious for a couple of minutes. I’ve been doing cpr since we got him out of the pool. I got no sign of any pulse at all. Please start work. Come on! Oh, my god! Ned! Oh, my god! Olivia. It’s okay. It’s okay. Let them do their work. Let them do their work. Okay? He’s gonna be alright. He’s gonna be alright. Shh, shh. Nina:

And you want me? Now you’re getting it. Are you sure? Yeah. I’ve never been more sure in my life. And you know what? A lot of people have decided that I’m not worth it. Well, they’re wrong because you’re worth everything. Is that A…? Yes! Yes! Yes, I’ll marry you! I’ll marry you. I can’t wait to marry you. You must have realized that even though sonny and carly are divorced, sonny would do anything to protect her. When he finds out that you were the one who pointed the sec at carly?

You and sonny are done.

[ Door opens ] Frank said you were waiting. What brings you by?


That’s why I switched my phone off, really — because I’m a coward. And of all the people that could reach out to me, the one person that I dread is emma, because she’s going to beg me to tell her that it’s not true and that I wasn’t a traitor. And I’m going to have to tell her that…

[ Crying ] That I was. But I don’t think you should underestimate her. She’s going to be hurt. She’s going to lash out. Oh! She’s going to want an explanation. You can give it to her. You can tell her you were pulled in over your head. You were manipulated by cesar faison. Mm. I know. I know. I was. But how do you explain that? You know, maybe one day, she’ll want to listen. She might even forgive me. But… the way she used to look at me with such pride, like I was the thing she wanted to aspire to be… I mean, that’s — that’s gone forever.

[ Crying ]

[ Sniffles ] Oh, god. You were pretty wreckedwhen you got back from the wsb.

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, that’s, uh — that’s one way of putting it. Look, you managed to rebuild your life. Yeah, but I had, uh… I had a lot of help. From anna. From my family. And from — most of all, from you. I wouldn’t have chosen any of that… but I survived. And then waiting for me on the other side was you.

[ Breathes sharply ] Someone I never expected with this life I never expected. But now that I got it, I-I don’t — I don’t want any other life. And that’s all your fault.

[ Laughs ] Well, back atcha.

[ Chuckles ] I love you. I love you. Yes, dex is qualified to protect sonny, but who says that he wants to? Or that he’d agree to take the risk of reporting back to me what sonny does? And, yes, it’s in sonny’s best interest, but sonny won’t see it that way. And dex would be a spy, and that can get him killed. I just — I don’t — I don’t see him taking that risk when he can just take the money he’s already earned and disappear. Well, you know dex. Would he really do that?

[ Sighs ] I wouldn’t blame him if he did. I know it would break josslyn’s heart. She cares a lot about him. She truly cares about him. I mean, that’s one of the reasons I came up with this plan. And I know josslyn — her feelings are getting deeper and deeper all the time. And the longer dex stays in port charles, the more devastated she will be if he decides to leave. Well, I don’t know. If he decides to disappear, better it happens now. Are you sure about this? No. I’m not sure about any of this. But I do know I want you to give dex a choice, and let’s see what he decides. You just made this big case as to why you should work for sonny, but you’ll quit if I want you to? I’m very clear that you want me to.

[ Chuckles ] But I’ll quit if it’s the only way we stay together. No. I’m not going to put conditions on our relationship. I’m not going to tell you what you can and can’t do. It’s only going to make you resent me. So I’d rather take my chances and watch you take yours with sonny. You can go be his best lieutenant and risk your life and break the law. Just remember, your life is kind of important to me. I’ll remember. Sonny: What’s wrong? No! It — it’s actually your fault. Because if you hadn’t given me such a spectacular ring, I wouldn’t be thinking about you all the time. And so it leads me to want to see you, which led me to come here. You’re always welcome. Yeah.

[ Chuckles ] Remember when we came back from nixon falls, and, uh, I — I was just convinced that I lost you forever? And you hated me for… withholding the truth about who you were. That you would never forgive me. But what made it even worse was the memory of… how happy I’d been with you. You know, look, we —

[ Sighs ] We’ve all done things we regret. We can’t — you know… can’t forget that. Can’t forget the past. But what we can do is not live there. Yeah. You know what we also can do? Hm? We can also think about the future that we’re going to have — together. Yeah, I want that more than anything.

[ Breathes deeply ] But tonight… I just want you. I’m his wife. When you put him in that ambulance, I need to be riding with him.

[ Radio chatter ] Ned, I’m here. Honey, can you hear me? I’m not leaving you. Not even for a second. What happened? Drew attacked ned and almost killed him. Put your badge to use. Arrest him for assault.

[ Whispering ] What?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Morning. Good morning. Coffee’s ready. Oh, thank you. Oh man. So did you hear from Johnny last night? No, not this morning either. Hmm. That’s strange. I mean, he’s on his way over here with takeout and then he calls you, says he is with Chanel and then nothing. Hmm. I don’t think he’s still with her. Do you?

Uh, six cups of coffee and I still feel like the walking dead. I am so sorry. I can’t believe the police kept us there all night to give them our statements. You didn’t even see what happened with Colin. You were downstairs the whole time. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I, I, I saw them, uh, hauling him out of the pub and, well, you know what I saw because you heard me repeat it about.

600 times. Yeah. They should’ve let you go home, get some sleep, and let you go through all that by yourself. It wasn’t that big of a deal besides saying, I. I’m, I’m willing to do anything that I can to make sure that that psycho gets put away for a very long time. You and me both.

You betrayed me to now you’re gonna pay.

Where in the hell is my husband? You little coward, Paulina. What you doing here? I thought you were still at the hospital. Well, I’m out obviously. Okay. Yeah. And how the hell did you get in here? Why are you interrogating me when you should be questioning him? I wanna know where the hell my husband is, and you’re gonna tell me right now.

Ms. King, this is Police Commissioner Ray Hernandez. I need to speak with you right away about the abduction of Mayor Abe Carver. I understand that you were on duty when it happened, so please call me back at this number as soon as possible. Thank you.

You are finally awake. Oh, thank. God. Oh, we also worried about you, but everything’s going to be fine. Mm-hmm. Because we have each other, my love, and we always will. Paulina’s here. Good morning, sunshine.

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

So no. I haven’t heard from Johnny, but before you say anything, there could be a million reasons why he didn’t call. So he spent the entire night with his ex-wife and there are a million reasons he couldn’t eat next to him. Okay, look, I’m not happy about this and he better have a good explanation. I jump to conclusions about the whole crazy.

Biscuit episode and I was wrong. So this time I am giving him the benefit of the doubt. Fine. Yeah, I understand. I’m just saying it’s really not a good look for him to keep ghosting you. You know what? Trashing Johnny just to score points isn’t such a good look for you either.

Are you okay? Yeah. Why? Because your, uh, your hands are shaking. Uh, um, it’s, it was probably the coffee from the PD last night. I two had about six cups. Right? Right. It was the, uh, the coffee look. Chanel, you had a really close call last night and. You haven’t had time to process it until just now.

I’m really sorry. It’s not your fault. Oh no. Chanel. I should have never let you go up to Talia’s room by yourself. You could have been hurt. We’re worse. Yeah. Well, you, you didn’t know Colin was up there and, okay. Can you, can you believe that Tolia had the nerve to defend him to me? Yeah, she did. Right before she gave you the badge and basically turned him in.

Oh Chanel, she was probably terrified to say anything bad about him cuz she knew he was right there. Terrified. She loved that guy and she did everything he told her to do. Yeah. Yeah, she did like give up her job as a doctor to move to a town that she’s never even been to. To terrorize a bunch of people she’s never even met.

I mean, he must have some hold over her. Are you defending her? She did just go off a building and almost die to save your mother. But she obviously, she feels terrible about what she did. Right? Yeah, I suppose. But that doesn’t change the fact that she betrayed me in the worst possible way. So I don’t care if she apologizes a million times.

I will never. Forgive her.

Oh, you’re awake. I was hoping you sleep in. Yeah, no, I was having a nightmare that Colin was gonna come back for me.

I’m so sorry, Talia. But he’s locked up now. He can’t hurt you. Or anyone else. I know you also know that I’m not gonna let him lay another finger on you again. I do. Okay, good. So get some rest. Okay. You’ve been up all night. Yes. How are you? No, seriously, Jada. I don’t wanna close my eyes again.

So is he still refusing to talk? It would seem so. Look, J do you really think he took Abe? I mean, he didn’t even say anything to me. Listen, Colin escaped from the hospital at the exact same time that Abe disappeared. If he’s not responsible, then I don’t know who else it could be. Oh, you were tossing and turning all night last night, darling.

Is everything all right? I I had a dream. It was so strange.

It was about you, Paulina. Well, it didn’t look like you

stop staring at me and say something. Damn it. Mr. Bedford has been exercising his Fifth Amendment rights ever since he has got here. So now if you will, please go outside. Look, I know he has to get due process from you, but not from me. How to strangle the truth out of it. Paulina, what’s not? What the hell is going on here?

Nobody should be speaking to my client without his lawyer. Present your client. You mean your, your. Psychopathic, murderous, kidnapping brother. He has nothing to do with the mayor’s disappearance. Actually, if I may say something, I do know where mayor cover is. If you let me out of here, I’ll take you to him.

Okay, look, I’m sorry for what I said about Johnny. You’re right. I was being a jerk and I just, I just don’t like seeing you hurt. But if you’re not upset with him, then I sure don’t have any right to be No, I didn’t say I wasn’t upset. Just said. I hope he has a good explanation. Oh, he is a fool. If he doesn’t, you’ve had three guys fighting over you.

Poor Johnny. I, I wouldn’t take your patience for granted. Yeah, and not exactly the overly patient type

I should get to work. Did you have breakfast? I saw your banana still on the counter. Um, No, I’m not hungry. Oh, come on. The best day starts with a good breakfast. I mean, all the studies say it’s true. Come on, sit down. You know you don’t have to keep cooking for me because you feel sorry for me. Okay.

Waffles and a toaster does not count as cooking. And for the record, I don’t feel sorry for you. No, actually, if there’s anyone I feel sorry for, it’s Johnny. You know, because if he doesn’t step up his game, he, uh, nevermind. I’m not gonna keep you in a joke about it. If you’re gonna give him the benefit of the doubt, and so will I.

Well, um, if you’re sure that you’re all right, I should probably go find Wendy and explain to her why I disappeared last night. You didn’t text her? No, my phone died. Oh my God, Johnny. Yeah, she’s probably worried you should go now. I’m on my way. Um, so take care. I’ll see you around

Julie. Oh my God. Chanel, my mother went missing from the hospital. Oh, so you know where Mayor Carver is, but you can’t tell us. You have to take us to him. Oh, you wouldn’t find him without me. Colin, not another word. Commissioner. Ms. Price. I need a moment, uh, with my client alone. Let him finish. Oh my God’s sake.

My husband’s life is at stake. Paulina, please, please, we have to follow the law. We will find Abe, but you want him to walk? Do you want the case to get thrown out? Okay, go please. Paulina,

what the hell are you doing? You told me last night you didn’t know anything about the Marist disappearance. You told me not to tell you if I did. Well, I didn’t mean for you to lie. And even if you did kidnap him, why the hell would you just go and confess it to the cops like that? I didn’t confess. I just said I knew where he was.

Okay. I’m gonna ask you one more time the truth. Colin, do you know where Mayor Carver is?

What do you mean? I didn’t look like myself?

In my dream, I, I woke up in the hospital and you were, you were sitting right beside my, my bed. Mm-hmm. And, uh, everything was blurry and when my vision cleared up, it was you. But it wasn’t. What do you think that means? Uh, you, you were just different and, and you, you weren’t dressed like a nurse. You think I only wear scrubs?

Look, I dreamed one time that I was elected president of the United States, but that obviously didn’t happen. You know how dreams go and you better stop thinking about other women. Mr. Also, I’m gonna start getting jealous. Sorry. Well, I wanna go make you some breakfast sausage and eggs. Here we go. Sausage.

I, I, I thought I was the only one who was having a memory lapse. I hate sausage. No, no, you don’t. You, you do not. You just must have lost your memory. You forget that you love them so much, you know. No, no. I haven’t forgotten that. I hate sausage. It’s slimy. It’s me, pig parts.

Maybe my stomach turns just talking about it. I, I, I, I hate sausage.

I guess I was hungry, apparently, you know, apropo of what you said before about having three guys fighting over me. Yeah. Well, just so you know, I’m totally not used to that. I’m not even even used to guys looking at me. No, come on. I mean, a, my father always told me that I was never gonna get married if I didn’t wear makeup or stop dressing like a slob, a k a, wearing comfortable clothes and drove him crazy that I didn’t care.

Well, First of all, you don’t need makeup or fancy clothes. You are beautiful just the way you are and you’re not caring. It is one of the things I love about you. That’s sweet. It’s true trip. You’re such a good guy. I feel kind of guilty that I’m the one who’s ambivalent. Indecisive.

I hope you know that. I’m totally cool with you seeing other people too. I don’t wanna see other people. Come on. You are a red blooded American guy. I mean, you’re handsome. What? Smart as hell. Really nice. Doctor, you’re a total catch. You could have anyone you want. Oh, well I’m definitely not gonna test that theory.

He’s the only person that I want. Is he?

Thanks, Julie. I’ll be in touch. Okay. Your, your mom is missing. Missing, yeah. Yeah. Julie said that she left the hospital this morning against medical advice, and she thought that she went back to the apartment, but she wasn’t there. Okay. Where the hell could she be here? Okay. All right. Just take a deep breath.

Deep breath. She can’t have gone far. Right. I’m gonna help you find her, but Wendy, she’s waiting for you. No, no, no. This is more important. Well, I, I, I don’t even know where to start looking. Actually, I have an idea.

It’s been long enough. I’m going back to No, Paul Paulina. No. Now listen to me. Abe will be the first one to tell you that we have to follow the law and besides, we don’t even know if Colin is telling us the truth. You said he’s your number one suspect. Who else would take Abe? I mean, yeah, sure I have lots of enemies, but Abe doesn’t.

Everyone loves him. Yeah. Excuse me. Hello? Hi, commissioner. This is Chanel. Johnny gave me your number. Look, I, I know this can’t exactly be called a missing person case, but Mama went missing from the hospital this morning, AMA, and I’m, I’m really worried about her. Mm-hmm. She’s right here. Chanel, oh, what is she in trouble?

Um, no, she’s not. She came here to confront Colin Bedford, but she didn’t tell me that she left the hospital against medical advice. There’s not any chance you can come down here, pick her up, take her back to the hospital. Yes. Yes. I’ll, I’ll, I’ll be right there.

Sheels on her way. I’m not going anywhere until I find out what that psychopath knows about where a is.

You know, darling, that knock to the noggin may have messed up your sense of taste. It’s been known to happen. Well, if you don’t want sausage, what would you like? Uh, maybe a toast tea. Hmm. And perhaps a pain pill for that headache you’re trying to hide from them. It is. It’s throbbing a bit. Yeah. Am mind turning on the tv?

Well, we talked about the news. Remember, it’s. It’s just too upsetting and, and screen time should be limited after concussion. Are you my mother or are you my wife? Oh, post-concussion mood swings. Gonna have to keep an eye on that. Yeah.

Hey, how’s your arm? Do you need any meds? Can you stop worrying about me, Jada, please. Okay. I’ve caused you enough trouble already. I honestly, I don’t even know how you let me stay here. How many times do I have to tell you, you are my sister. I love you. What is this guy call and do to you to make you feel so bad about yourself?

What he did? Nothing. Talia. He messed with your mind? Yeah, because I let him, but as soon as you realize what he was going to do, you turned him in. You should be proud of yourself. E even the newspaper is calling you a hero. You, you know, I, I really think that’s gonna help your case. No, Dana. I am not a hero.

I was scared of him. He was furious with me. Aim over for that one second when he asked me to go away with him. Right. My heart, it, it was bounding and I thought maybe he might forgive me for turning on him. I was relieved. I, I was so relieved that I got like this adrenaline rush, you know. In that moment, I was scared.

Just in that incident, I almost went with him. What is wrong with me? Honey? Honey, there is nothing. There is nothing wrong with you. I miss him. And I know I did the right thing we giving Chanel that badge, but I constantly hear this voice in my head, Jay and his voice, and telling me that betrayed him and his right because I didn’t, I did betray him.

I dunno where a is. I knew it, but the cops don’t need to know that, do they? If I can get them to agree to let them lead me to him, then I’m, I’m sure that I can escape and make everything much worse for yourself. How can it be much worse than colon is? If you try to escape again, you can wind up dead and I don’t think that I can bear that.

Do you? Don’t understand. You’re so selfish. God, you the only family I have left. If you plead guilty. I can at least try for a plea deal. Yeah, there’s gonna be prison time, but if you just admit to everything that you did, I know you mean that’s hard as done. No. That you have done. Colin, you may have not trashed Paulina’s office or.

Spike those biscuits all by yourself, but there’s just no way I can get you clear to what happened on that roof. It’s bad enough that you assaulted a cop. I thank God you actually didn’t kidnap the mayor, but you have to admit to everything that you’ve done.

I want to go to prison. Yeah, well, there’s no choice. So what’ll it be?

Hey, uh, hi. I have brought breakfast. I already ate. Oh, he’s back. Yeah. And he has a name, but he’s back Trip blue in last night. He just made me breakfast. Oh. And tacos. For dinner last night when you never showed up because you were too busy with Chanel? I can explain. Okay. Really? You can explain why you didn’t even call.

I wish that I could have, I was stuck at the police station all night. No cell signal at the police station. I somehow doubt that and don’t they have land? Hey, can I, can I just, uh, can I talk to you alone for a second please? Yeah, I’ll go take a shower. No, he lives here. You can’t just tell him what to do and where to go.

Don’t worry. It’s fine.

Look, are you pleased? Just gonna, at least let me explain this. Fine, explain just what were you doing at the police station. You didn’t betray anyone and God forbid you had left hand with Colin. I told you that he never hurt me physically. Talia, emotionally abusive relationships turn physical almost all the time.

I, I see it almost every day.

Look, I, I, I think you should see a therapist just to work through your feelings and, and everything that that happened and why Dr. Marlena is the best apparently. What’s it matter to work out my feelings if I’m going to prison anyway? Huh? You me? Why are you giving up so easily? Where is that strong woman that I know?

You know the one, the one that you said play football with the guys that was president of her high school class? I wasn’t strong back then either Jada. Okay. It was just an ax, so, so you’re saying it was what a, a facade? Yeah, I guess you can say that. So I didn’t think I’d measure up. Okay. So I put a lot of pressure on myself.

That is the only reason that I succeeded at anything. No, Talia, you succeeded because you are bright. You are so very bright and you are gifted. Okay? You succeeded because you work hard as hell and you are not someone who gives up. Okay.

Oh God, I am, I, I’m, I’m sorry. I am so sorry that I didn’t know that you were hurting and, and, and suffering even back then. I, I, what, what would it hurt? What would it hurt to talk to Dr. Marlene. If you don’t wanna do it for you, would you please do it for me?

Yeah, I will. Thank you.

What, oh, oh. Oh no, they must have cut the cable off. Cause I didn’t pay the bill. My bills are just piling up. I’m not able to manage this household by myself on a nurse’s salary. What, what? What about me? Don’t I have a job? You’re retired. What about a pension? Oh, you don’t have one, I’m afraid. Uh, you owned a business, uh, an ice cream shop, Marshall’s ice cream shop.

Well, that has a Vegas memory. Yeah. Well, it doesn’t matter. You know what I wanna do? I’m gonna pick up a few shifts. Things are gonna be fine. Wait, wait, wait. But my, my, my medical bills. Oh, don’t you worry about that. Well, speaking of work, I’ve got to go. Uh, I’d have my Chanel. Come by and take care of you.

But she’s got a very demanding business and works long hours. Oh, what kind of business? Uh, bakery. Oh, ice cream pastries. Oh, I have a good, don’t I? You do. You sure do. No, I don’t want you to think that you, you’re gonna sit here all day long staring at the walls and talking to cats. Even though the cable is out, you can still watch tv.

I recorded 15 years of my favorite story, body and Soul, and I have them right here for you. You’re gonna enjoy it so much.

Holly, come on. You were hospitalized for hypertension. Oh, but I’m fine now. I’ve been taking my meds. Who we stone. That’s not something to play around with. And why’d you walk outta the hospital? Chanel left me last night to go get me some dinner. Then she texted me, something came up, and I never heard from her again.

Then this morning I saw on the news she was involved with the arrest of Colin Bedford, and no one even had the decency to tell me, okay. Chanel was never in danger, and besides that, we still have not established a definite connection between Abe’s disappearance and common, but he just admitted it. We don’t know if he’s telling the truth yet.

Well, my client was mistaken. No, he doesn’t know anything about Merick Harbor’s location. I’m sorry. All right, so in other words, he was lying. Well, maybe he’s lying now. Maybe this is some sort of tactic she just came up with to get him a better deal. No. Look, I was very clear with him that he needed to come clean with me so I could use any information he had to his advantage.

And I’m certain he just, he doesn’t know what your husband is and that’s the God’s honest truth.

Look, I am really sorry, Wendy. The last thing I’m meant to do was let you down

that that’s it. You’re just, you’re not gonna say anything. I understand. Bet you witnessed a crime bet you had to make a statement. I just don’t understand why you didn’t let me know. A, a, a and I should have, of course, I should have. But look, they were questioning me for quite a while. Right. And by the time that I had a chance to call or text you, my phone had died.

So you didn’t think to ask someone else if you could use their phone? I wish to hell that I would have, but honestly, I, I admit that I was a little distracted. By, by, by all the drama, you know. Okay. I don’t know what else to say. I feel terrible. All right. And I know that no amount of apologizing is gonna make up for the way that I stood you up like that, but is there any other way I can make it up to you?

Le let me take you out to dinner tonight. Anywhere you wanna go? What do you say?

The bed is lumpy. . Right. And I know you’re just sweating the smallest stuff right now, so you don’t have to think about the big stuff, baby. I’m scared. I’m scared. You know, it’s bad enough thinking that queasy Colin had a somewhere, but now I don’t even know where he is or how he is. And in a way that’s even worse.

No. Oh, I know. But you just need to try to close your eyes and rest. It’s gonna be okay. It has to be.

So let me. This straight. Colin said that he knew where Abe was and then he recanted. Yeah. That’s a long short of it. Which story do you believe? Well, I feel like at this point, if he knew where Abe was, he’d give him up. Might help him. Hmm. Now what? Yeah. Well that nurse is the only potential witness that we have at this point, and we don’t even know if she saw anything, but she still hasn’t responded to my calls, so I was hoping that you could follow up with her.

I know we were supposed to go together, but now I have to deal with charging Bedford. Well, if you don’t mind, I have a personal interest in scene as calling case through. Could we switch? Yeah, yeah, sure. I wish you the nurse then. Thank you. Yeah, and hopefully she has something to tell us.

Body and soul. Yeah. I never miss it. I used to tape it every day before they started streaming. My tapes go back 15 years. It’s all queued up. There you go. And you know you’re gonna start from the beginning and you’ve lost your memory, so it’s all new to you anyway. Right, right. All right. I’m gonna go now and I’m gonna lock the door behind me.

I want you to listen to me very carefully. I don’t wanna frighten you, but that. Man that attacked you is still out there and he’s, he’s been impersonating a cup, so it’s very important not to open the door, especially if the cops show up. Okay. You expect him to, no, of course not, but I’m a warrior. Alright, well watch your show and enjoy and get some rest and I’ll see you soon.

Sure. Okay. How about eight o’clock at the bistro? Great. It’s a date. Uh, that’s how you, that’s how you walk around the apartment, huh? Uh yeah. Yeah. You know, as we established, I live here. Uh, and look, for some reason you can’t make it tonight. You know, say you have another emergency involving Chanel. I’m making stir fry tonight.

I, I know it’s your favorite.

Chanel,

have they found your stepfather yet? No, because first your boyfriend said he knew where he was, then he said he didn’t. He’s not my boyfriend. Not anymore. Whatever. Just stay away from me and my mom. Look, I’m trying. Okay, then what the hell are you doing here? I came to make an appointment with Dr. Evans, my sister thought it’d be a good idea to talk about why I did the things I did for Colin.

Look, Chanel, I’m sorry about everything.

I don’t know what else to say anymore.

DA’s on her way. So you couldn’t convince your brother to plead guilty, huh? I tried, but uh, he’s not having it too bad. As I’m sure you know, Trask is going to throw the book at him, especially after all his transgressions after the initial crime. Not only did he escape police custody, he tried to kidnap my sister.

Oh, and he lied. While being interrogated, you know, I am well aware of the charges being brought against my brother, and I’m appalled by what he’s done, but he’s my brother and I love him. I imagine you feel the same way about your sister Colin manipulated her. They were in a consensual relationship. Talia was a willing participant.

Talia takes responsibility for what she did, as does Colin. You know, he’s not been quite the same since our parents died. If you dare try the insanity defense, don’t you tell me how to defend my client. And maybe he should stop worrying so much about my brother and start finding the mayor who seems to have been misplaced on your watch.

In St. Louis? Yes, Julie. I’m back in my hospital bed now. No, no, no. Honey, you don’t need to come. No, I’m fine. Oh, I’m I will be once they find out who really took Abe and where he is. Oh.

You’re not dressed yet, sweetheart. One of the upsides of being a gentleman of leisure is not having a set schedule, but you do have an appointment to keep

lunch with Ms. Riz. Check. Ah, yes, that. I am not going.

Yes, this is Gwen Recheck. I’m phoning to confirm a reservation for lunch, right? Yes. It’s for two people at one o’clock. Um, and just so you know, my um, guest is Mr. Vaughn Noner, Dmitri Vaughn, Mona. So I would please like a very quiet, nice table in the corner, private one. Thank you. Well, everything’s set with my interview with the mysterious Mr.

V Mok. I’m telling you, Mattie, this is going to be the spectator scoop of the century. How nice. So while everything’s coming up, roses for you. My life is over.

Yeah. Well, okay. Thanks Jada. Keep me posted. Okay. Sounds like there’s no news. Yeah, she says they have no new link. I mean, I don’t care.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Carter: Here’s the working itinerary. You’re gonna hit the ground running as soon as you get to rome.

Ridge: Okay, the designs are where?

Carter: Well, they’re bagged, tagged and ready to be shipped. You both will make sure everything is good and intact as soon as we arrive.

Ridge: Okay, what’s–

Thomas: What about the venue?

Carter: We’re working with the officials securing permits, it’s going to be epic.

Thomas: Amazing.

Ridge: Well, that’s good work, carter.

Carter: Pleasure’s all mine. Your designs, thomas, what I’ve seen deserves the biggest spotlight imaginable.

Ridge: Couldn’t agree more. Very proud of you, son.

Taylor: We both are.

Thomas: Aw, thank you so much. Look, honestly, I– confession, I, um– I didn’t know if my designs would be up to par. It’d been a minute since hope and I worked together, and I don’t know, I– I– I didn’t know if it’d be as good as the first time, but honestly, now, it’s like we never fell out of sync.

Hope: Grazie a tutti

per aver participato

alla hope for the future

anteprima moda.

>>Iam: Sorprendente!

Hope: Grazie! [ Laughs ]

Liam: Are you, uh– are you nervous?

Hope: Oh. Well, carter just emailed over the itinerary, and I knew the hype was big, but– [ Laughs nervously ]

Liam: But– but what? Oh, you didn’t expect all the global media coverage and people wanting to actually do business with you?

Hope: I mean, no pressure, right?

Liam: Yeah. Listen. You’re gonna be just fine. And the reason is this. People love your line because they love you. So just be yourself. Also prepare for a lot of new orders coming your way.

Hope: Mm. Thank you.

[ Sighs ] Uh–

Liam: No, I’m not–

Hope: No, no, no, no. What is it?

Liam: I– you know, it’s the– it’s the topic. It’s the topics strule to conveniently ignore. Thomas.

Thomas: Mom, but please stay, ’cause we’re– we’re almost finished.

Thomas: Just gotta go over a few more details for rome.

Carter: I gotta say, rome is one of my favorite cities. It’s perfect for the event, it’s so, so magical. Full of history.

Ridge: Speakin’ of history, that is exactly what thomas and hope will be making.

Thomas: You know, I– it’s actually kind of weird because I’m thinking about it was not too long ago that we were all sitting at this table. Well, maybe not all of us. Some of us, most of us were sitting at this table, and, um, I was being kicked out of the company, and out of the line.

Carter: Yeah, but you proved yourself. You did the work, and now look at you, jetting off to rome with hope. The forrester dream team, taking the world by storm.

Liam: Maybe we should talk about thomas. I’ve been try– I’ve been trying not to bring it up because I also– I just don’t wanna get into a fight with you about it–

Hope: Look, I– i don’t want that either, liam. I understand why you are concerned about thomas. That makes total sense, but what I think the real issue is– is your trust in me.

Liam: No! No. It’s not– I– I trust you. Like, I– I don’t know how I can make that clear.

Hope: Okay, all right, so then trust my judgment in thomas.

Liam: Okay, there’s a difference between trusting your judgment and trusting your intentions. Where your judgment is concerned, it’s a fact that thomas has successfully manipulated you more than once.

Hope: I just– how many times do we have to go over this?

Liam: I don’t know how many times, un– until you acknowledge what thomas is capable of. Listen, hope, I– I’m– I’m so happy that your line has been saved and it’s thriving, and there is no bigger fan of hope for the future than I am, and I am proud of this opportunity you have in rome, but it’s your line. It’s your line. It’s not thomas’s, and he does not need to be there.

Trelegy for copd.

Thomas: You know, this is– this is pretty incredible the more I think about it. I mean, it’s not too long ago, hope for the future was, well, in a rough patch, and now we’re goin’ to rome for a preview.

Taylor: Yes, you are. And it’s all because of you. You saved the line.

[ Phone chiming ]

[ Carter laughs ]

Ridge: What, what’s goin’ on?

Carter: Ah, one of the buyers. They’re very excited to see the latest designs. You and hope better get your rest. I’ve set up so many meetings with the buyers and suppliers, I can’t tell you how many phone calls and emails I’ve been getting.

Thomas: Don’t worry, we’ll be ready.

Carter: Okay.

[ Phone ringing ] International. I should take this. Uh, touch base with you guys later.

Ridge: Uh, thanks for everything, carter.

Carter: Like I said, it’s my pleasure.

Thomas: Yes, sir.

Carter: Hello? That’s good news.

Thomas: Is it just me or is he more on fire than you?

Ridge: He’s always on fire, but no, he’s happy for you, he wants this to work. He knows how far you’ve come.

Taylor: Yes, we– we all do. No, especially– especially your relationship with hope.

Thomas: Well, I– I– I gotta say, I– I– I do understand how grateful I should be for being given another opportunity.

Taylor: Mm.

Thomas: Okay, you two, you have been giving each other looks ever since mom got here, so what’s goin’ on?

Ridge: Look, it’s– it’s a– it’s a big deal, you know? You and– and hope, you’re goin’ to rome. It’s big.

Thomas: I promise you, dad, I’m not gonna do anything to mess this up.

Taylor: No, it’s– it’s not you that we’re worried about, honey. It’s– it’s, um– it’s hope.

Thomas: It’s hope. What– what–

Ridge: There’s been a bit– there’s been a buzz goin’ around, you know.

Thomas: Buzz?

Ridge: You know, there’s been some talk. People saying that she might have feelings for you.

Hope: Thomas is my lead designer. He is responsible for so much of the hope for the future collection, and designers are at press events and fashion shows. And liam, you know this.

Liam: However, this is a unique and really weirdly complicated situation.

Hope: It’s a business trip.

Liam: I– I– I understand that you view it that way, and I believe you. But it’s also exactly the kind of opportunity thomas can, and has in the past, used to get close to you and manipulate you.

Hope: I can’t– I can’t do this. Okay, I– I don’t– I don’t wanna keep arguing this with you, liam. I just want you to understand that hope for the future is my life’s work!

Liam: I absolutely understand that, and I support you in that.

Hope: Okay, so then do you understand that I tried to find a designer that would make it work? I mean, eric, one of the most prolific designers to ever pick up a pencil, even he couldn’t interpret my vision as well as thomas could.

Liam: The designs are done, though. The dresses are made. You don’t need thomas for this next part.

Hope: Okay, I– I get that you have issues with thomas.

Liam: Of course I have issues with thomas. How could I possibly trust him after everything he’s done to us?

Hope: Because I do! I– I’m not some child, liam. I– I work with him every day, I’ve seen the changes that he’s implemented into his life, a– and the progress that he’s made, and not only that, he– he brings a certain artistry, a certain creativity to my line.

Liam: Hope, hope. I’m not asking you to get a new designer.

Hope: But you’re telling me not to bring thomas to rome. And I can’t do that.

Liam: You can’t or you won’t?

Hope: Liam, I don’t want to hurt you. But thomas is my lead designer. He is my partner, and… I can’t imagine being in rome without him. “Look at this skin, baby.

Thomas: Okay, what are the two of you asking me?

Ridge: We’re asking you if there’s any truth to hope being interested in you.

Thomas: You can’t be serious.

Taylor: Oh, we’re very serious, thomas. We know that you’ve changed. But if hope has feelings for you, then that–

Thomas: No, no, no, no. That’s– that’s ridiculous, though.

Taylor: Okay, normally, your father and i would agree with you, but–

Thomas: But you’re what? You’re gonna both get involved in office gossip?

Ridge: Well, that’s not office gossip. It came from your sister, it came from steffy.

Taylor: Yeah. Your sister has her suspicions.

Thomas: Suspicions or paranoia? Because lately, she’s been singularly focused on all the things hope does wrong.

Taylor: Okay, because she’s concerned.

Thomas: Okay, look. Steffy may have her own issues with hope, but it has nothing to do with me.

Thomas: Oh, relax. We’re not accusing you of anything. Your mom and I, we’re on your side.

Taylor: No, yes, and I’m sorry if it sounds like it is. I– we love you so much, and– and we know how hard you’ve worked to get to where you are, and we just don’t wanna see anything or anyone jeopardize that.

Thomas: Okay, well, all right, thank you. Um, hope and I have a great working relationship and we’re co-parents to douglas and that is it, okay? But as far steffy is concerned, maybe she’s just mixing up her signals, right? She’s got her care for me, and– and her issues that she’s got with hope.

Taylor: Okay. Okay. Well, that’s good. So there isn’t anything that hope has done to lead you on?

Thomas: Look, I– I know you’re both looking out for me and I appreciate your concern.

Ridge: Simple question, son.

Thomas: Hope and me work together. We’re co-parents together. That’s where it stops. There is no reason that either of you should have any concern about hope and me going to rome together.

Liam: I’m tr– I’m tryin’, hope, I’m really tryin’, but this is just– it’s– it’s eating me up. You were– you were just in san francisco with the guy, and you were this close to spending the night together.

Hope: Because the plane had mechanical issues?

Liam: I know. And now you’re going to rome. Of all places. I mean, it’s– it’s– it’s bad enough that you’ve been working with him every single day, after everything he’s done.

Hope: What he’s done is design a beautiful line for me, liam. That– that is what is happening here. He’s not manipulating me, he’s not sitting there biding his time. He is committed to hope for the future. And this could be one of the biggest showings of my entire career.

Liam: I believe that. I believe it will be. And you absolutely need to be there, but thomas does not. And do I really need to do the thing where I, like, list all the stuff he has done to us in the past?

Hope: No. No.

Liam: Are you sure?

Hope: Yes. I am sure. He didn’t just wish his way into being a better man. He actually put the work in, liam. He went to therapy. He developed tools to help him deal with his challenges. And all the while, he’s been nothing but a consummate professional with me.

Liam: Okay, but that– that’s the game that he always plays, right? He’s new and improved, until he gets you alone with him and then– why am I– why do I have to say this to you?

Hope: You shouldn’t have– I don’t want to go– keep going over this with you. And– and do I need to remind you that this is thomas’s collection, too? I mean, it is a forrester creations entity and the last time I checked, thomas’s last name is forrester. And I am not about to tell ridge that his own son can’t come.

Liam: Given everything we’ve been through, I think you absolutely could say that to ridge.

Hope: I don’t want to. Thomas is going to rome.

Liam: I, um… I– I don’t– I don’t know what to say. I’m– I’m– I’m at a loss here. I love you, I just– I don’t wanna see it happen again. I don’t wanna see you get hurt and betrayed all over again.

Hope: Yeah, you’re being protective of me.

Liam: Of course, I’m being protective of you.

Hope: Okay, I don’t need your protection, liam. All I’ve ever needed is your trust.

Liam: Trouble is brewing, hope. It’s brewing.

Hope: I need to go to the office.

Living with diabetes?

Ridge: Well, here’s a little tea for that sexy voice you have.

Taylor: [ Laughs ] Yes, I’m just– I’m just trying to sound like your sexy voice.

Ridge: Ah, look at us.

Taylor: Hmm.

Ridge: This is not why you came to see me, is it?

Taylor: No. No, it’s not. I,ou I hated the way that we left things. You know, that whole– whole brooke situation, but this… this is not what I want to talk about right now. There’s more pressing issues. Yes, if– if what steffy is saying is– is true, about hope and–

Ridge: Well, let’s, uh– let’s think that maybe she’s overreacting, right?

Taylor: Thomas is strong.

Ridge: I know. I know he is, but if the person he’s interested in is all of a sudden interested in him, then that’s opening the door to somethin’, right?

Taylor: We gotta believe that– that he has this under control, right? He said there’s no reason to worry, so we’re not gonna worry. But we’re gonna keep our eyes open.

Ridge: Okay.

[ Liam sighs ]

[ Liam groans ]

Hope: I asked thomas

to come back

to hope for the future as lead designer.

Stop trying to protect us

from this man

that does not exist anymore.

He has changed,

and either you can accept that,

or just let it go.

If thomas is my lead designer,

he’s my partner,

and I can’t imagine

being in rome without him.

[ Heartbeat pounding ]

Thomas: Hey! What’s up?

Hope: Uh, not much. Just, uh, still trying to get ready for this preview.

Thomas: It’s kind of crazy. I just had a meeting with, uh, carter and my dad, and they’re honestly, it just sounds like that– that carter is just workin’ his butt off right now, and he’s fielding calls left and right from buyers and suppliers. It’s– ooh, it’s gonna be crazy. Hey. What is it? Is somethin’ wrong?

Hope: It’s–

Thomas: Hope, come on. Hey. We’re partners, right? You can talk to me.

Hope: Well, it’s just as predicted. Liam has an issue with us going to rome together.

Thomas: Well, I mean, I’m– I’m sorry to hear that, but can’t say I’m surprised.

Hope: Well, it just feels like nothing I ever say to him matters.

Thomas: That’s cause he doesn’t believe in me and I don’t know if he ever will.

Hope: But I do and that should count for something because I know the man you are better than he does.

Thomas: That means a lot. It really does, ’cause I mean, it’s just– it’s, uh, it’s amazing, having– having this. You know, our friendship and working together.

Hope: Well, we do make a really great team.

Thomas: I think so, too. So, what did you tell liam about the trip?

Hope: I told him that… you’re my lead designer, and it’s your collection, too. Not to mention it is a forrester creations line, and I think that’s your last name, so, yeah, family business, you kinda have to be there.

Thomas: Wow. Uh, that– god, that means so much to me.

[ Hope chuckles ] It really does. I mean, you saying these kind of things, ’cause like, I– obviously, I’ve– I made a lot of mistakes in the past, and for us to get to this place, that’s– that’s it, right? We’re– all that stuff’s in the past, and… we’ll prove that to liam, right? Because we’re gonna do a great job here. This collection, I mean, everyone is saying it’s gonna be hope for the future’s finest collection and I believe that. And this trip, hope, it could, uh, it could change our lives. Anyway, you have a lot of work to do and so do I. I’m gonna finish up this sketch, which by the way, I think you’re gonna love.

Thomas: It could change our lives.

[ Thomas’s voice echoing ]

Nate: Is it wrong that I get excited when our podcast numbers come in? I know you’re not a fan.

Victoria: Actually, I’ve been listening to it on the treadmill. Yeah. Figured if you were so hot on it, then maybe it was something worth checking out.

Nate: Oh, okay. Um, and?

Victoria: And, well, that true crime series that you recommended is intense. I can see why it attracts so many listeners.

Nate: People can’t get enough of it. The ad sales are a major revenue stream.

Victoria: Well, you can’t argue that. Maybe we should reinvest some of that money into the genre and build on a good thing we have here.

Nate: Already on it.

Victoria: Of course you are. What are you smiling about?

Nate: Victor’s inviting me for drinks.

Victoria: Alone?

Nate: Uh, it just says sometime soon. Doesn’t sound pressing. What’s your best guess?

Audra: I think I know. I just saw victor at the athletic club. We were talking about you.

Billy: So then I said, “I quit, I’m out of here. I’m gonna sell my car, buy a motorcycle and hit the road and see where it takes me.” Then, guess what he said to me back?

Chelsea: Uh-huh.

Billy: Yeah? What did he say? What did you think?

Chelsea: What– what were you saying?

Billy: Nothing vaguely interesting, that’s pretty obvious.

Chelsea: I’m sorry.

Billy: It’s all right.

Chelsea: They released the numbers for the soft rollout for my game last week. You know how omegasphere was quietly testing the waters of their products?

Billy: Oh, yeah. I’m very aware. I’m actually playing and I’m doing pretty well. My– my emotional intelligence rating went from needs improvement to vaguely self-aware.

Chelsea: Hm. So, you’re the one who’s playing.

Billy: Oh, come on. Can’t be that bad.

Chelsea: I have the lowest user numbers for my game. It’s a dud.

Billy: It’s not a dud. It just– it takes time to find an audience. It’s gonna be all right. You know, I wouldn’t worry too much about it. How about I take you out for dinner? We can get your mind off of things?

Chelsea: You don’t have to do that.

Billy: It’s not exactly a chore. I’d like to.

Chelsea: Well, it doesn’t mean you should.

Nikki: Hi, darling.

Victor: Hello, sweetheart.

Nikki: Listen.

Victor: There we go.

Nikki: I just checked on sharon and faith and I am beyond upset. That human garbage poisoned faith’s cat and left it on the porch for her to find. She is devastated.

Victor: I’m well aware of it.

Nikki: That man has got to stop terrorizing our family.

Victor: Sweetheart, cameron kirsten will be taken care of.

Nikki: By whom? Because nicholas is not answering his phone and I’m worried he’s going to take matters into his own hand again.

Daniel: I don’t know how much longer I can take this.

Lily: Take what?

Daniel: I can’t say.

Lily: Daniel, how can I help you if I don’t know what’s going on?

Daniel: Things with my mom and my sister are about to explode and I am worried about the fallout.

Nick: Open up, cameron! I know you’re in there.

Cameron: Hi, nick. Took you long enough to find me.

Nick: You wanted to be found? Here I am.

Cameron: Now what? You gonna come in here and you’re gonna teach me a lesson? Boy, you are painfully predictable. We’re done.

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…

Lily: Okay, what is going on with summer and phyllis and why are you worried?

Daniel: I haven’t been completely honest because I don’t want to risk implicating you.

Lily: Okay, this sounds serious.

Daniel: It is.

Lily: I–

[ Phone chiming ] I have a meeting I have to get to, but I’m gonna postpone it because I wanna hear what’s going on.

Daniel: No, no, no. Don’T. I’ve got some place I need to be too. Um… why don’t we meet up later and I’ll tell you everything?

Lily: Are you sure? You just said things are gonna explode.

Daniel: It’s better this way. I’d rather just text you when I’m free.

[ Lily sighing ]

Lily: Okay, I mean, it’s gonna be hard to concentrate on anything else, but I’m here for you, okay?

Billy: Did I do something wrong?

Chelsea: No. No. You have been as sweet and attentive and– and as loving as always.

Billy: Then why don’t you let me take you out for dinner?

Chelsea: Because you’re doing it for the wrong reasons.

Billy: But you do have to eat, don’t you?

Chelsea: It’s not what I mean.

Billy: Okay, well, I guess I don’t follow then.

Chelsea: You’re–

[ Chelsea sighing ] You’re trying to distract me from my worries. Keep me from thinking about what’s bothering me. You wanna save me. You wanna be my hero again.

Billy: I promise you, I will keep my cape at home. Hey, it’s just dinner.

Chelsea: Dr. Malone and I, we’ve been talking about us.

Billy: I thought we got the green light from her on us, you know, as long as we took our time and kept our eyes wide open.

Chelsea: Well, we’ve been talking about how we initially bonded. You saved me, literally. There’s no way around that.

Billy: Is that a bad thing?

Chelsea: No. But maybe, because of that, you feel like you have to keep saving me and I would never want you to feel that way. I’m– I’m doing well. I’m doing great, actually, but if I’m not, I never want you to feel like it’s because of something you did or didn’t do.

Billy: So, I’m not helping? I don’T…

Chelsea: You’ve been amazing, but it’s not your job to fix me. And even there’s a tiny part of you that feels like it is, we have to talk about it and figure out how to handle it.

Victoria: So, you think that you have better insights than I do as to why my father wants to have a drink with nate?

Audra: Oh, not at all. Um, it’s not a competition. I just, uh, thought I had an explanation and it would be valuable to share it.

Victoria: Please do.

Audra: Well, I spoke with victor after you two headed up to the corporate suite at the athletic club. You know, to go over those figures.

Victoria: Yes, I remember.

Audra: Well, victor seemed really interested in your working relationship. You know, he was quizzing me about it, and of course, I went out of my way to sing nate’s praises as a great boss.

Victoria: As well you should.

Audra: Yeah, well, we were talking, you two came downstairs and left together. That’s when he got really interested. You know, I talked up how inspiring the both of you are as leaders, how in sync you are, so I’m sure that’s why he wants to meet with nate. After the glowing report he got from me, I’m sure he wants to congratulate you on earning your employee’s respect. He probably wants to give you a bonus.

Victoria: Wow, you really do know how to read a situation, don’t you? That’s exactly right. That’s exactly the kind of effusive praise and gesture that my father is known for.

Nate: Thanks for putting in a good word.

Audra: Anytime.

[ Nate sighing ]

Nate: That was audra’s not so subtle way of saying victor saw us coming down the stairs and leave the athletic club together.

Victoria: Yeah, no kidding. So, what if he did?

Nate: Well, it does shed a new light on the timing of his drink offer.

Victoria: How so?

Nate: Does victor really want to sit down with the ceo of newman media, or is this a test of the new guy in his daughter’s life?

Victoria: Being tested by my father isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I think that means that he is taking you seriously. In my book, that’s a good sign.

Victor: So, in other words, you’re worried nicholas will go too far with this cameron kirsten slimeball?

Nikki: Yes, I am. He’s done it in the past and I– I know he’s working with chance and our security team to find him, but I also know his history with that maniac.

Victor: Sweetheart.

Nikki: He will do anything to protect sharon and faith.

Victor: A man must do what he feels he has to do to protect his family, that’s all.

Nikki: Yes, but you and i both know what instincts he’s having right now and after what cameron did to that poor cat, if nicholas finds him, he’s gonna lead with his fists–

Victor: Good.

Nikki: Not his head.

Victor: I’ll be there to back him up, if need be.

[ Nikki sighing ]

Nick: You wipe that smug look off your face, you coward. You’re terrorizing a mother and her daughter. You killed an innocent animal. What’s the matter with you? How’d they ever let you out of prison?

Cameron: I don’t know, man. The justice system, it’s a mystery, right? As far as killing innocent animals, I– I got no idea what you’re gassing on about. I’m here for one reason and one reason only, sharon.

Nick: Oh, you’re gonna stay away from her.

Cameron: Hm, not your call. You’re not married anymore. She’s fair game.

Nick: Are you insane? She despises you.

Cameron: I can change that. I think she’s warming up to me already. You’re in my personal space, nick.

Nick: You shut your mouth. Here’s how this is gonna play out. See, I told the police and newman security exactly who you are and what you’re capable of. If you so much as smile at sharon or faith, they’re gonna haul your ass back to prison before you can say “parole violation.”

Cameron: Empty threat. You got no grounds.

Nick: Your track record is grounds enough.

Cameron: I did my time. I’m reformed and I’ve got the parole board’s stamp of approval to prove it.

Nick: Sharon is not the same woman she was all those years ago when you manipulated her. She’s stronger, more confident and fearless now.

Cameron: Just as beautiful as the day I met her. And you are not gonna get between us this time. I promise you that. What are you gonna do? You gonna hit me? Because I got a legal right to defend myself, nick, so you go ahead. You take your best shot. Do it. Do it. Hit me!

Nick: Yeah, next time, it’ll be for real.

[ Cameron laughing ]

Today, my friend you did it, you did it, you did it…

Chelsea: I’ve upset you.

Billy: No, it’s okay. It’s all good.

Chelsea: It’s my fault. We should’ve had this conversation sooner.

Billy: So now we’re having a conversation on how to handle the situation. Let me ask you honestly. Um, do you feel like I have a need to play hero?

Chelsea: It’s not an indictment. I’m not saying you’re doing anything wrong.

Billy: But you’re talking about it with your therapist, so it’s bothering you, right? Or it’s bothering her.

Chelsea: I think you are wonderful and I adore you, but yeah, I think it bothers me a little bit that your instinct, if something’s bothering me, is to distract me.

Billy: It’s not– I mean, do you blame me for wanting to see you smile?

Chelsea: Yeah, but you can’t stop me from ever having an unhappy thought.

Billy: I feel like that’s a very natural thing, you know. I care about you, so I want to see you joyful. I want to see you happy.

Chelsea: Of course, but it’s not realistic to expect that all the time and you have to trust me that if I’m having an unpleasant thought, I can handle it, and if I can’t handle it, I’ll talk to you about it.

Billy: Okay, well, um, I gotta be honest, that does kind of bother me a little bit.

Chelsea: Do you wanna discuss it?

Billy: I do, but, um, look, I’m not dodging. I’m really not. I have to go meet victoria. We gotta talk about the kids, so, uh… can we just pick this up later?

Chelsea: Of course.

Billy: Okay. Bye. Hey.

Daniel: Hey.

Chelsea: Hey.

Daniel: Hey. [ Sighing ] Sorry I’m late. Been a hell of a day already.

Chelsea: I think I know the reason. It’s me, isn’t it. My game is a flop.

Nate: I should be getting back to my office.

Victoria: Well, before you do that, let’s strategize about this drink that you’re gonna be having with my father.

Nate: Well, I was thinking rye, neat.

[ Victoria laughing ]

Victoria: Let’s figure out what it is he wants and what your approach will be.

Nate: I appreciate your offer, but I’ve been through a lot over the years with victor newman. I’m not worried about a little one-on-one time with him.

Victoria: Well, you know, plenty of men would be unnerved by an invite from victor newman.

Nate: I’m not your ordinary guy.

Victoria: No, you are not and it is undeniable sexy how this doesn’t throw you, not even in the least.

Nate: Mm. I’m finding that few things intimidate me lately. It makes the possibilities seem endless. And I have you to thank for that.

Lily: Well, no, I don’t care if the gaming bloggers want stats now, they’ll get them when I saw say so. Okay. Hi.

Billy: Hi.

Lily: Um, I haven’t seen you, since, uh…

Billy: Since our very awkward double date?

Lily: Yes. That was interesting with the kids, too.

Billy: Yeah, that was weird, even by my standards.

[ Lily chuckling ]

Lily: It was fine though, I mean, once we all loosened up.

Billy: Yeah. So, how are you and– and daniel doing?

Lily: Uh… slow and steady. How are you and chelsea?

Billy: Same-ish. Maybe a little bit more wobbly than steady.

Lily: I mean, I don’t want to pry, but is– is everything okay?

Billy: Yeah, everything’s fine. You know, I just spent most of my life waiting for other people to solve my problems and now, I’m swinging in the other direction.

Lily: Right. Fixing problems you haven’t been asked to.

Billy: Problems, situations, people.

Lily: Well, I am happy that you’re thinking about it.

Billy: Yeah, not sure I would have if certain people didn’t bring it to my attention.

Lily: Now, you just gotta find that balance between saving the world and falling apart.

Billy: Seems easy, huh?

[ Lily laughing ]

Lily: One of the hardest balancing acts I know.

Billy: Something to aspire to.

Cameron: You’re gonna wanna to get some ice on that, sport. That’s gonna leave a bruise.

Nick: You’re gonna check out of this hotel and you’ll be gone in the morning.

Cameron: You’re not hearing me, nick. You’re gonna have to drag me out of here in a bag! I got no intention of leaving. I got things to do, women to seduce. And guess what? I’m free to do that. I have broken no law and I haven’t hurt anyone or anything, be it human, feline or inanimate.

Nick: You have been harassing sharon since you got here.

Cameron: Oh, come on, man. I– I’ve seen her once in the coffee shop and you were there for most of it.

Nick: Which is why I know exactly what your intentions are.

Cameron: Hey, you know what? It– it’s kind of sweet how protective you are of your ex-wife. A little sad because she no longer wants or loves you, but super sweet.

Nick: You are going to stay away from sharon and faith and you will be gone by the morning.

Cameron: Or what?

Nick: You don’t want to find out. My a1c was up here; now, it’s down with rybelsus.

Victoria: Well, I would like to continue this discussion, but I have a meeting.

Nate: Oh, anything I should tag along for?

Victoria: Unfortunately, no. It’s personal, it’s not business.

Nate: And here I thought I was both.

Victoria: Aw, you very much are. I won’t be long, I promise. And feel free to use the office. Knowing that you’re waiting for me here will give me an excellent reason to hurry back.

Audra: Well, well. You don’t seem to be wasting any time, are you?

Nate: What do you want, audra?

Audra: Well, just to admire how you operate. The fact that you and victoria ever get any work done is impressive.

Daniel: I promise that my poor mood has nothing to do with your game. It will find its audience, I am not worried. I mean, I’m dealing with some other stuff and its personal, it’s not professional.

Chelsea: Of course. You’re still grieving the loss of your mom. And here I am making it about myself. I’m so sorry for– for projecting my insecurities onto you.

Daniel: Don’t apologize. Look, you just launched your baby out into the world. Of course you’re gonna be feeling vulnerable.

Chelsea: It’s crazy, right? How a game can make you feel so protective? How things like user reports can make you feel so vulnerable and insecure?

Daniel: Mm, I’ve seen the numbers from the soft launch. They’re not through the roof.

Chelsea: Yeah. That’s putting it nicely.

Daniel: Mm-hmm. But we are getting good word of mouth on social media.

Chelsea: You are?

Daniel: We are. Yeah, it’s like our mental health consultant said, people, they are more willing to talk about their emotional struggles online, and it seems like they are seeking guidance outside of traditional avenues. We’re poised to be that.

Chelsea: How can you tell?

Daniel: I was monitoring this discussion thread this morning and people were already pointing to your game as a positive tool for dealing with anxiety.

Chelsea: Really?

Daniel: Mm-hmm.

Chelsea: Huh. Is it ironic that I’ve been too anxious to look?

Daniel: I totally get that. Um, besides, you know, people online, they can be vicious, but take a look at this.

Chelsea: “This game has helped me practice how I talk to my mom about how upset it makes me when she yells at me.” Hm.

Daniel: You know what that means?

Chelsea: It means we’re actually helping people.

Daniel: We are actually helping people and that is worth a hell of a lot more than numbers.

Billy: Hi.

Victoria: Hi. Thanks for meeting me.

Billy: Of course. You said this is about the kids. Is everybody okay?

Victoria: Oh, yeah. Everybody’s fine. Um, well, we were talking at breakfast and uh, the kids are both very excited about camp.

Billy: Yeah. I’m trying not to take it personal that they can’t wait to get away from us for a whole summer.

Victoria: Well, you should brace yourself because johnny brought up boarding school.

Billy: And I hope you assured him that we don’t plan on sending him this year.

Victoria: Oh, no, not exactly. He wants to go. At first, I thought he was kidding, but uh, he’s not, and then katie got all excited about the idea, so I told them that I would talk to you about it.

Billy: So, today’s the day I find out that nobody actually needs me anymore.

Victoria: What? Where’s that coming from?

Billy: Don’t worry about it. Um, look, you know how I feel about boarding school.

Victoria: Oh, yeah. You hate it.

Billy: Yeah. My own personal experience wasn’t exactly warm and fuzzy.

Victoria: Well, this is about johnny and katie, billy. It’s not about you.

Billy: You’re right. You’re right. And if this is what they want and we visit often, then I’m not gonna say no.

Victoria: So, is that a yes?

Billy: It’s a reluctant one, but I guess this is, you know, good continuity from last year and it is a great place for both their passions.

Victoria: Yes, yes. That is exactly how I feel. Johnny would be able to continue the coding classes that he loves and our daughter has straight as, so she can spend all of her free time horseback riding.

Billy: And you’ve really thought about this. Where’s all this enthusiasm coming from?

Victoria: Well, it’s what the kids want.

Billy: You sure this doesn’t have anything to do with your budding relationship with nate? When you really need to sleep.

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue. Sweet pillows of softness!

Victoria: I hope that you’re not implying that I wanna ship the kids off because it would give me more time to date because you are way too smart to say something so stupid, billy.

Billy: That’s never stopped me before. But you’re right, it’s none of my business.

Victoria: Was that supposed to be an apology?

Billy: Vic, I know that you would never put some guy above our kids and I’m sorry, that was a jerk thing to say.

Victoria: Yes, it was. Where did that come from?

Billy: I don’t know.

[ Billy chuckling ] You know, earlier today, I got chastised for doing something that I thought was the right thing to do and now, I’m taking it out on you.

Victoria: Me seeing nate isn’t gonna be a problem for us, right? Because I’m not sending the kids away, I’m just letting them gO. Those are two very different things. You know, I– I wanna give them the best and if that includes some new school adventure, even though it breaks my heart because I’m not gonna see them every day, I wanna give them that.

Billy: No, you’re right. And it is gonna be hard, but it’s the right thing to do for them.

Victoria: And where did this come from? That nobody needs you anymore? I mean, the kids need both of us, just in different ways.

Billy: Now, I feel really bad because you’re being so nice and I was an ass.

Victoria: Look, holding on to the kids just because it makes us feel better to have them around isn’t gonna do them any good. We have to give them space, and then, we’re their safety net if they ever need us.

Daniel: Chelsea, this game, it was never about zombies or unicorns. It’s about finding real solutions to human problems. That means seeing things from a new perspective. You know, real change? It’s hard. You have to trust, you have to commit, it takes time and it can be scary.

Chelsea: I can attest to that.

Daniel: Yeah. You’re a living, breathing example. I mean, you’ve taken all your pain and all your struggles and you’ve turned it into something positive. Omegasphere.

[ Chelsea laughing ]

Chelsea: Omegasphere.

Daniel: I hope you’re proud of what you’ve accomplished.

Chelsea: Well, I’m getting there, thanks to you. I mean, you should be proud too, you know. You took a chance on me when not many people would have. You’re a good guy who wants to do good things.

Nick: Your security team’s tip was right. Cameron was at the athletic club. He needs to be watched 24/7.

Victor: How did you know that?

Nick: I went and, uh, confronted him there.

Nikki: Oh, my god. This is exactly what I was worried about.

Victor: Did you touch him?

Nick: No, sir. Not a hair on his head.

Victor: There, you see.

Nikki: Oh, my god. Your knuckles.

Nick: The wall wasn’t so lucky.

Victor: Right cross? Uh-huh. Well then, he got lucky.

Nick: I’m sure I got his attention.

Nikki: Yeah, and maybe a broken hand.

Nick: I’m fine, mom.

[ Phone ringing ]

Nikki: It’s the office. I have to take this. Please promise me you won’t do anything rash until I deal with this.

Victor: Okay, there, sweetheart.

Nick: What happened to that security guard who had his uniform stolen?

Victor: That loser? Stuffed in a closet. Stripped down to his underwear, for heaven’s sake. I fired his ass.

Nick: Good.

[ Phone chiming ]

Victor: Oh. I spoke with nate hastings about having a drink with him. Um… okay.

Nick: So, our family is dealing with a stalker, but you have time to go and socialize with an opportunist?

Victor: You’re saying that whilst being involved with an opportunist?

Nick: What does that mean?

Victor: Sally spectra is a noose drawn around your neck. Don’t you see it? Especially now that she’s pregnant with your brother’s child.

Nick: You have no idea what you’re talking about, all right? Cameron’s a threat to our family right now, but you’re wasting time taking shots at the mother of your next grandkid.

Victor: And cameron kirsten will be dealt with. Sally spectra, from now on, will be part of our lives. Ever wonder why kit kats are so delightfully crispy?

[ Daniel sighing ]

Lily: Hi. Oh, wow.

Daniel: Do you have any idea how much I appreciate you?

Lily: I mean, that hug gave me an idea, but I feel like something else is going on.

Daniel: I met with chelsea, talked about the early response to her game.

Lily: Oh, god. I know. I meant to call her and tell her not to look at downloads or active player numbers and just focus on the good the game is doing.

Daniel: I told her the same thing, but I bet she would appreciate hearing it from you too.

Lily: Yeah. I’ll call her, for sure, but hey, what is going on with phyllis and summer and why have you been keeping it from me?

[ Daniel sighing ]

Daniel: As much as I want to be completely honest with you, telling you compromises both of us, so if you don’t want anything to do with it, I’ll just keep it to myself.

Lily: Hey, whatever it is, it’s okay. You can tell me.

Daniel: My mother is hiding out at a room at the athletic club. Cops could be at her door at any second.

Chelsea: Okay, well, it’s definitely not what I wanted to hear, but thank you for letting me know. Bye.

Billy: What happened?

[ Chelsea sighing ]

Chelsea: That was connor’s teacher. He, apparently, is not raising his hand in class and he’s keeping to himself during free time. She thinks he’s shutting down.

Billy: Mm.

Chelsea: I thought he was pulling himself out of this mood. Apparently, it’s just gotten worse.

Billy: Well, I’m dying to figure out a way to fix this, or at least, distract you from being worried, but I won’T.

Chelsea: Thank you.

Billy: Instead, I will ask you, do you need advice? Reassurance? Or just someone to vent to?

Chelsea: You have given me enough reassurance just by making it clear you trust me to handle this on my own.

Billy: I’m learning. It’s an imperfect process.

Chelsea: Right? We’re doing our best. It’s all we can do. So, I think I’m just gonna talk to connor tonight and try to get through to him and maybe some ice cream will help.

Billy: Now that is a good idea.

Chelsea: Uh-huh. One step at a time, right? One day at a time. Thank you for helping.

Billy: I don’t feel like I did anything.

Chelsea: You listened. And now, let me return the favor. What can I do for you?

Nate: You might want to work on your discretion. You shouldn’t talk about your bosses at the office like that.

Audra: Uh, you and I have an agreement. I didn’t think I needed to pretend like I don’t know what’s going on.

Nate: You don’t, with me, but you might want to back off with being so blatant with victoria.

Audra: Well, I think she enjoys a sparring partner. If she respects me as someone who will speak her mind, I’ll be well positioned to take over when she promotes you.

[ Nate chuckling ]

Nate: I appreciate your positive thinking about my ascendance, as well as your own.

Audra: Like I said, we’re in this together.

Nate: By the way, I used the information you shared about the tech team’s video production capabilities to impress victoria with an idea I had for newman’s real estate division.

Audra: Clever. Making newman media useful to newman enterprises. Oh, and I looked at those upcoming negotiations with our ad buyer you– you mentioned and I was able to work some magic.

Nate: So, our mutual aid club is working.

Audra: Which is why I wanna get back to what I walked in on earlier: Victor’s drink invitation. He’s on to you.

Nate: We’re not concerned.

Audra: Well, he may not mind your relationship, but you don’t want him thinking that, you know, you are slacking on the job and encouraging victoria to do the same.

Nate: Victor doesn’t strike me as a clock watcher. He’s a man about results, not hours behind a desk.

Audra: Hm. If you say so.

Nate: Now, nick newman, on the other hand…

Audra: Yeah, he could definitely be an issue. You know, it’s clear he considers you a threat and that is not a man who will back off easily.

Nick: What is your real issue with sally? Because dad, this goes far beyond the protective father thing.

Victor: It’s very simple. You’re wasting your time and energy. You have other things to worry about.

Nick: Dad, you are the one who is fixated on this pregnant woman who has done nothing to you. You need to be focused on the threat that cameron poses.

Victor: And I am, and I will deal with that bastard, but you forget about sally spectra. You start paying attention to sharon and faith, who really need you. I’m here for the dunkin’ run, campaign, commercial.

Billy: What makes you think that I need something?

Chelsea: I can see the concern in your eyes.

Billy: I guess I’m a little knocked off my game. You know, it’s– it’s bad enough that the kids are gonna be gone at summer camp all– all summer, but… now victoria told me that the kids want to go to boarding school next fall and I’m sad and I’m confused because they don’t need me in the same way anymore.

Chelsea: Billy, that is hard. I’m sorry. And I wish I could fix it for you, but–

Billy: But you won’T.

Chelsea: No, but I will ask you a question that a very wise friend recently asked me. Do you want advice? Reassurance? Or just to vent?

Billy: Definitely the last two, with a double scoop of chocolate chip mint ice cream.

Chelsea: Oh, my treat.

Billy: Mm.

Chelsea: Let’s go talk.

Victoria: Oh, hi. I’m glad you’re still here.

Nate: Then, why do you sound on edge?

[ Victoria sighing ]

Victoria: Well, my meeting was with billy and, um, we almost got into an argument. Well, we worked it out, but he made a jab that kinda got under my skin.

Nate: Why do I suspect it was about me?

Victoria: Well, it wasn’t about you, specifically. It was more the idea of us. I think that what we have is confusing to people. They can’t categorize it, so they– they don’t understand it.

Nate: They’re not wrong.

Victoria: What do you mean by that?

Nate: To some, it might look like we’re just colleagues with benefits.

Victoria: I consider you much more than that.

Nate: So, maybe we make it official. How about I take you on a date? And not another one of our working meetings.

Victoria: Are you serious? Like, cocktails and dinner?

Nate: Maybe even dessert and dancing.

Victoria: All right. You’re on.

Nick: You know, you just don’t understand my relationship with sally. That’s fine. Just keep it to yourself, all right? I’ve had it up to here with your judgment.

Victor: Really?

Nick: Yes, sir. Excuse me. I’ve got a lot to do.

Nikki: What happened?

Victor: Hi, sweetheart. Um… to put it simply, our son is… spread too thin. He has a lot of things to deal with.

Nikki: Well, we both agree on that. I just don’t want his temper to get him into trouble.

Cameron: Jimmy, hey. Got a job for you. This one’s gonna require a face-to-face. Bring your right hook, you’re gonna need it.

[ Cameron breathing deeply ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Singsong voice ] Elizabeth. You’re getting off soon, aren’t you? Ugh. Please, please, please tell me that you’ll join me for a drink after work. After everything that’s going on in my life right now, I could really use a night out with my best friend. Okay, I’m just finishing up. I’ve been helping bobbie all day. It’s not fair that they’re making her pull double-duty as head nurse and chief surgical nurse. Ugh, well, hopefully, it won’t be long until they find a replacement for epiphany. Easier said than done. Well, that’s true. Those are some major shoes to fill. I’m not sure anyone can fill them. Anna? Yeah, it’s me. Listen, call me back, will you? Martin! Where’s anna? I don’t know. Actually, I’m here to see another client. Excuse me? Valentin, please don’t start, okay? You know I can’t discuss the details. Attorney/client privilege and all of that. I am paying you to represent anna now that she’s been arrested by the bureau. Listen, I promise you, anna is not in any danger. She’s been released? ‘Cause she’s not returning my phone calls. I went by her townhouse, and she’s not there. She’s got a lot on her mind. I swear to you, she will reach out when she’s ready.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Speak of the devil. That might be her now. No, that’s business.

[ Knock on door ] Yeah? Everything’s set at the warehouse. Just wanted to see if you needed anything else. I’m all set. Something on your mind, boss? Olivia insisted her husband [Sighs] Didn’t point the sec at carly and drew. I’m starting to believe her. I’ve missed this. Mm. You know, we were only on the outs for, like, a few days. Well, it’s a few days too many, if you ask me.

[ Chuckles ] I’m so relieved and happy that you believe in me. Well, you didn’t make it easy. You were the most obvious suspect. But I have noticed how you’ve been committed to being honest with me since our reconciliation.

[ Sighs ] Hi. You two seem very celebratory. I assume that you heard the good news about willow. She had her bone-marrow transplant. Yeah. It’s one of the many things that we’re celebrating. Oh, uh, what are the others? Well, my wife knows now that I wasn’t the one who turned in drew and carly to the sec. Drew: Ned got us into this mess. Ned is gonna get us out of it. He’s had plenty of time to build government contacts, right? He’s got lots of favors owed to him, so if he still knows what strings to pull, he could probably get the sec off our backs. Why would ned do that? We just got to find the right leverage to use against him. That could get us out of this. Sure hope this works.

[ Sighs ] Come on, man. Why haven’t you called me back?

[ Monitor beeping ] Hey, you. Michael. What are you doing here? The doctor said I could sit with you. So… how you feeling? I’m exhausted. But at the same time, I’m so excited. I feel like we might really be able to put all of this behind us, that our family can finally be whole again. Hey. What is that? You know damn well what this is. No, I really don’T. Josslyn, stop. Don’t lie to me. I know everything that’s been going on with you, your brother, and sonny.


Good. Elizabeth, you’re still here. Oh, you guys look awfully serious. What’s going on? We were just given a briefing by the G.H. Board. About? Your future here at the hospital. That was, uh… unexpected. Good unexpected. I think it’s exactly what both of us needed tonight. So… I take it you’re not still thinking about that kiss with your ex? Sorry. I didn’t mean to bring up anything. No, no, no. You didn’t do anything wrong. In fact [Sighs] You’re right. Maybe it’s time I start thinking a little less and just have fun. Mm. No strings attached. All that baggage can wait until tomorrow.

[ Cellphone chimes ] Oh, oh, oh. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Hold that thought. What? Sorry. Hold on. Uh…ah. Unfortunately, there’s one thing that I don’t think can wait till tomorrow. My client’s been trying to get ahold of me.

[ Telephone rings ] Hope you’re up for another visitor. For you? Anything. How are you doing? I’m hopeful for good results but don’t want to get ahead of myself. I still need to stay in isolation until they confirm the bone marrow isn’t being rejected. But I realize how blessed I am, and I have you to thank, drew. You risked everything to bring my donor back. It’s family. That’s what we do. I know this story could’ve ended a lot differently if the sec had found you before you were able to bring liesl back. I’m so glad to hear that you two are on the same page. Last time I heard, olivia, you were convinced that ned turned carly in. If you don’t mind me asking, what changed your mind? I looked into ned’s heart, and I believed him. As simple as that. Yeah. Love is so blinding. Is there something we can help you with, nina? It’s okay. It’s okay, ned. Sonny came around to believe in you, too. You will get through to carly. Wait, uh, sonny doesn’t believe anymore that ned is the one that called the sec? He may not be all the way there, but he’s starting to come around to my way of seeing things. Oh. You must be so relieved. I’ll leave you two alone. What was all that about? What about michael and sonny? Michael told me how he’s been working for months to gather intel against sonny so he can send him to prison. And this flash drive right here, this is video footage that implicates sonny. Okay, well, I don’t have anything to do with that. But you knew what he was planning, and you wanted it to happen. This is why you told me that dex had a plan for getting out of sonny’s world. I know, josslyn. I know that dex was hired by michael to infiltrate sonny’s organization. I don’t understand. I thought my troubles had already been sorted out. Did board have second thoughts? I was present at the meeting. It was our quarterly review of personnel and open positions and the subject of epiphany recommending you to take over as head nurse came up. And? Well, monica gave the idea a ringing endorsement, but the board has to consider everything, including your record and how a promotion might affect the reputation of this hospital. Yeah, I see. And given how your credentials and reputation speak for themselves, it really was a no-brainer. Wait. What? Come on, stop torturing her. It was practically unanimous. The board voted to give you the position of head nurse.

[ Chuckles ]


Wait, are you guys sure about this? I was there when monica quartermaine made her recommendation. She cited your years of dedicated service as well as the letter of support epiphany wrote for you before she passed. I don’t even know what to say. I think you say, “when do I start?” Terry: Monica was called away on some important business. She really wanted to be the one to extend the offer. I hope it’s okay it’s coming from the chief of staff, not to mention your best friend. Um, excuse me, excuse me. The bff is a tier. It’s not a title. Okay. Guys, I can’t even wrap my head around this. I mean, a year ago, with my parents and all that drama, it was such a low point, but I got through it, and now I’m going to be head nurse. And I honestly couldn’t have done any of this without all of you. No, I’m pretty sure you could’ve, but I’m grateful to have played a part in it. I think we all are. Well, then, like portia said, when do I start? Provided the salary terms are agreed on and all the paperwork gets signed, you could start as soon as next week. Did you know that you have very expressive eyes?

[ Monitor beeping ] I do? Even though the rest of your face is covered by a mask, I can see that something is bothering you. What aren’t you telling me? Zeke, hey, thanks for — thanks for getting back to me. Any chance that you can meet this evening? It’s really important. Uh, yeah, I guess I could make myself free. Alright. I’ll come to you. You’re staying at the metro court, right? Um, there’s a bar by the rooftop pool. Yeah, I’m familiar with it. Alright. Alright. I’ll see you there. Bye.

[ Sighs ] Usually when someone does the whole “fake work call” thing, it’s because they’re trying to leave someone else’s place. Aw, come on. Hand to god, I promise you, I’m telling you the truth.

[ Scoffs ] No, no, if you don’t believe me, give me your phone number so I can prove it to you. I know, I know. You said no strings attached, but we could always do a sequel, right? You can put your number in my phone. Ah, I see. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

[ Sighs ] Okay. I guess I will see you when I see you. Business? Here, I thought I handled all your corporate affairs. Should I be concerned? Valentin, hi. I saw that article on anna. I can’t believe someone would exploit her past. Thank you for the sentiment. Yeah. Listen, I got to go. Excuse me. Um… was it something I said? Ms. Devane’s situation is a little more complicated than, uh, appearances might suggest, which… is something I’m afraid you’re about to experience all too well. I’ve got some news for you. What do you know about ned quartermaine? Not a lot. He’s more than capable of selling out his family, but he’s not stupid. And there’s no way he would turn drew and carly in while willow was sick. Doesn’t make any sense. So if it’s not ned, I’m thinking maybe carly was a means to an end. To what end? Carly and I were together for a long time. She knows a lot about me. Things that the feds would want to know. I’m thinking it’s possible that it wasn’t an anonymous tip. The feds pointed the sec towards carly as leverage. Get carly to flip on me. But what about drew cain? Collateral damage. I must’ve been the target all along, and that wouldn’t be the first time the feds came after me through people that I care about. That’s the downfalls of this life, but there’s also benefits, ones that make it comfortable and easy for the people we care about. You just got to bend the rules a little bit, like when you punched that superior officer in the military. It’s not exactly my proudest moment, boss. Well, you got to be proud. You got to be proud, you know? I know he’s a superior, but you know what? He was an abuser. And the only reason he stopped is because you did something about it. That’s what we have in common. We do. But you did break my trust. Which, you know, may take a while to get that back. May not come back. Then why are you even wasting your time with me? Because I see great potential in you. I haven’t seen that in a long time. And I know I can give you what you want. What’s that? A place where you belong. But if you want to succeed, you’ve got to commit. You’re all in now. You understand? Yes, sir. Okay, you can go. I can’t believe michael told you. Michael didn’t tell me that part. I figured that out on my own. That’s why there’s been so much tension between the two of you. Okay, yes, you might be right about that, but I’m not pissed off at michael for planting dex in sonny’s organization. I’m pissed off at michael because he didn’t have the follow-through to finish sonny off when he had the chance. Oh, my god. Okay? And now dex is stuck, or he has to disappear. But you have the power to change that now. What are you talking about? You have the evidence that puts sonny away for life. Please stop thinking about dex. Save yourself — and drew. And please, mom, have the courage to finish what michael couldn’T.


I thought you went home. Yeah, I was on my way out when valentin cassadine showed up. He wants to speak with you. Alright. Let him in. Dex, you can stay.

[ Door closes ] What’s the special occasion? I just got off the phone with hume. Pikeman is making arrangements for that second shipment we talked about. I said I would only continue as soon as pikeman figures out who ambushed me at the warehouse. Does he have answers? Not that they’ve relayed to me. If I’m being honest, I think that pikeman’s probably in the dark about who the sniper was, but admitting to that is probably not a good look for them. Neither is calling my bluff. Nina would love nothing better than for carly and i to be at odds, for carly to think you’re guilty, and for me to have to run around defending you. Well, all I care about is that you know I told the truth. I know. And I am so sorry that I ever doubted you. Well, that’s because I’ve given you reasons in the past to doubt me. But that’s all behind us now. I know that, too. Now what we have to focus on is making sure this conflict doesn’t tear our family apart, and I know exactly how we’re going to do it. Really? How? We’re going to find out who actually threw carly and drew to the wolves. How’s this, martin? Or would you rather go to my crimson office? Not unless you want to explain why you hired me. That’s why I came looking for you. I’m actually sorry we ran into valentin. I wanted to keep this off the record and as low-tech as possible in case my phone records and my computer are subpoenaed. Subpoenaed? Yeah. Why would that happen? Because the feds are leaning on me to give up your identity. Willow, I don’t want to burden you with any outside issues while you’re recovering. I also don’t want to keep things from you, either. It’s okay. Having something else to think about would actually be good for me. So I’m not stressing about if the transplant is going to work or not. Well, when you put it that way… look, when I promised you that I was going to end this vendetta with sonny, I meant it. You asked me to drop it, and all I want to do is make you happy, so… and I had every intention of destroying that evidence against sonny. Sure seems like we’re building up to a “but” here. But now my mom could use that evidence as leverage to set her and drew free. Josslyn: I want to save dex. I want to get him the hell away from sonny. I don’t want him trapped in this world. And I want to save you. You have this evidence. Make yourself a deal. Help drew. Scout can grow up with her dad, and donna can grow up with her mom. Josslyn, there are so many moving parts to this you don’t understand. And this bloodlust that you have toward sonny, it’s going too far. You have to stop. It’s too much. Is it? Yes. He ruined our lives, and he hurt you. Yes. He hurt me. And he hurt your brother. And he hurt wiley. And I know that he hurt you. And I know you feel like you have my back in all of this, but sonny — look at me. Sonny cannot go to prison. Why? It’s better him than you, right? Zeke: Hey, there he is. Hey, thank so much for meeting me. I appreciate it. Sure. Good to see you. Good to see you. Last time was at portia’s wedding. Yes. I was very grateful to have the chance to talk to you and learn that you have some expertise in legal cases like mine. Yeah, speaking of her wedding, does curtis know that you asked me to represent you? No, no, not yet. I was just going to wait till he has a little less on his plate. Besides, this — this might not even go to trial. From your lips. And I assume that’s in reference to the business you wanted to discuss. Yeah, yeah, it is. I’m going to need you to get the sec on the phone and, um — and start working on a deal. Good. Good. Alright. I knew you’d come around and see it my way. Going to testify against carly? No. No, I’m turning myself in.


I need to check on willow corinthos, I need to check on willow corinthos, and then I’m going to expedite elizabeth’s paperwork so she can start asap in her new position.

[ Chuckles ] Job never ends for the chief of staff, huh? Apparently not. Which reminds me, the board has earmarked some funds so that I can have a second-in-command. I don’t suppose I could encourage either of my two favorite department heads to apply? Oh, no, no, no. Mnh-mnh. That’s a negative for me.

[ Chuckles ] I’ve seen firsthand how you can become disenchanted in that job. I much prefer patients over paperwork, so… that’s fair. Huh. If only we knew someone who got off on paperwork. Me? No, that’s a hard pass.

[ Elevator bell dings ] Think about it.

[ Sighs ] How you been? We haven’t talked much since the wedding. Yeah, well, things are complicated. Um, some of it isn’t really my place, you know, to say, but like I said, it’s, uh… complicated, right? Right. Yeah. Curtis moved back in… okay. …But we’re still — we’re just working things out. So I, honestly — I don’t really know. Maybe it’s foolish of me to think that we can salvage a relationship after it’s already been broken. But I’m holding out hope that we can. Yeah. And I have a feeling you know exactly what I’m talking about. Yes, gram, it’s true. I’m walking in your footsteps as head nurse. Ah, thank you. That just — it means the world to me. I’ll call you in the morning. I love you, too. Bye. Well, grandpa, I did it. I’m going to be head nurse. Hope that makes you proud. Hmm. Zeke’s gonna need his room key. Okay. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down here, drew. You want to turn yourself in? Yes. I’m going to testify that this was all my idea and that carly had no idea what she was doing. I can only assume that’s a lie because carly’s the one who bought all the shares of aurora. Look, this is — this is my line of work, okay? It’s not carly’S. I should have stressed to her the legal ramifications. Ignorance of law is not a defense. Where is this coming from? Why are you so suddenly determined to fall on your sword? Because this is ripping families apart. They’re trying to get carly to flip on her ex-husband. Sonny corinthos? Yeah. Okay, yeah, I can see the feds thinking that’s the way to go. Carly’s not going to turn on sonny, and then they’re going to try and pit me and carly against each other. This is not going to stop until somebody pays, okay? And the feds have made it very, very clear that between carly, sonny, and me, only one person has got to go down, and [Sighs] They’ve got such a big presence in their kids’ lives. And you’re not in your daughter’s life, drew? My role in scout’s life, it’s very different. Like, when I came back to port charles, she didn’t even remember who I was. Look, you just got to trust me, okay? This makes the most sense. Somebody has to go down, and it’s going to be me.

[ Voice breaking ] Sonny’s a criminal. I didn’t raise you to be this naive. Sonny’s world isn’t that cut and dry, and you used to understand that. What’s changed? Is it dex? No. I accepted the life that sonny was a part of. It’s the life that I was raised in. I grew up in that house. I bought into the fantasy that sonny uses his power for good. And I always believed that he would do right by you. He hasn’t been that man in a minute. Why should I believe his intentions now? Do you think I look at him and I see my happy childhood memories anymore? I look at him, and I see all of the pain that he’s brought to our family and all of the times that we’ve been caught in his crossfire. Not true, josslyn — really? It’s not? Okay, why don’t you tell that to dex or to willow? Actually, why don’t you go ahead and tell that to morgan?

[ Crying ] I’m sorry. We need to stop. Mom, I’m sorry. We need to stop. I didn’t — I didn’t mean it. Josslyn, stop.

[ Flash drive thuds, crunches ] Just stop.


Look, I wouldn’t be doing my duty as your lawyer if I didn’t advise you against turning yourself in to the sec. You don’t think that you can negotiate favorable terms? If the government can get a guilty plea without going through a lengthy and costly trial, maybe, but it’s definitely going to take some time. Okay. Okay. That’s all I need, alright? Just get the deal in place, but don’t finalize anything yet. I… I still have an ace up my sleeve that might make this whole thing go away. I assume I don’t want to know. Probably not. Right. Alright, I’ll see what I can do in the morning. Just keep in mind that even if the U.S. Attorneys agree on a deal, a federal judge can always overrule it if they deem it too lenient. That’s a risk I’m going to have to take. Hi. I hope we’re not interrupting. No. No, no, no. I was just thinking about my grandfather and all the others that have meant so much to this hospital. It really is such an honor to be appointed head nurse. It’s an honor you absolutely deserve.

[ Chuckles ] Absolutely. And now you don’t have an excuse not to go out with me.

[ Both chuckle ] We have some good news to celebrate. Yes, we do. Terry said that she will meet up with us later. How about we go to the metro court? I can call ahead and make reservations for three or…? Mm, make that four. Finn. Huh? You’re coming with us, right? Uh, no. I mean, I wish I could, but I have some work here that I should probably finish up. But you two go have — have fun. And, elizabeth, I’m really happy for you. Thanks.

[ Chuckles ] Forget something? You locked yourself out of your room. How do you know I didn’t leave it on purpose so you would track me down? Is that your pickup line? Because it needs some work.

[ Chuckles ] Well, we’re both here. Can I order us a nightcap? Oh, that is how we wound up in your room in the first place. How about a rain check? Sure. You have my number. You’re right. I do. Think about it, ned. It would go a long way towards mending some fences if we could actually find the guilty party. Oh. Olivia, I love your unswerving loyalty, but everyone seems to forget that drew and carly are the guilty parties. For all we know, it was some eagle scout accountant on drew’s payroll that tipped off the sec. And even if I proved my innocence, it doesn’t change the fact that drew and michael were so quick to crucify me. The level of distrust between us? I’m not sure we can bounce back from that. Certainly not enough for us to run elq together again. Or… you could be the bigger person. Find them the information that they need. That would turn down the heat a little, don’t you think? You told me the tip to the sec was anonymous. I know, I know. And if it had remained a financial matter, that would have been the case, but now that the fbi is using it to pressure carly to turn on sonny, that’s an entirely different situation. I never thought of that. Well, neither did I. Not that I think she would do it, but if carly does flip on sonny for any reason, it’s likely that both parties will try to find out who you are during discovery. You know what they say. All’s fair in love and war, especially when it comes to rico charges. Make arrangements for the next shipment. But I’m not going to let them unload one crate until we have a real conversation about what threat I am facing. Can you let them know that? Absolutely.

[ Exhales sharply ] Alright. Tony’s outside. You go ahead and — you go ahead and go. Okay. How’s — how’s anna? How’s she holding up? I wish I knew. Whatever carly decides to do with the information, that’s her choice, but it won’t be made out of anger or malice. It’ll all be out in the open. So whatever happens next, I support you and your family, just like you have all supported me throughout this fight with leukemia.

[ Monitor beeping ] Thank you.

[ Door opens ] I see somebody’s awake. How are you feeling, willow? Like I got my immune system wiped out and got shot up with someone else’s dna. Well, that’s a good thing because it means it’s working. I’m sorry, michael, but I do need to run a few tests. Oh, okay. Yeah. I’ll be outside. I love you. I love you, too. Mom, what did you just do? What I should have done the second michael gave it to me. Josslyn, I know what you’re going through. You’re lashing out at the people you love when they prove to you they’re human and they’re reckless with your heart. I get it. It’s a page out of the playbook I used to follow. Hell, I still follow it from time to time. No, no. No, you don’t understand. You’re telling me you want to save me from myself? You just condemned dex. He’s done for. He’s not. Stay here with donna. Where are you going? I’m going to take care of everything.


Look, anna and I, we go back a long way. We don’t always see eye to eye, but we understand each other. When anna’s hurt, she doesn’t want to burden the people that care about her. There’s usually one in every relationship. Yeah, I get that. I’m just not used to being in a relationship where we’re both that person. By the way, I saw a very large and expensive ring on nina’s finger. Does that mean that you have good news to report?

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, that’s right. Good for you. Congratulations. She’s an amazing woman. You be good to one another. Hey, joss. What’s wrong? It’s over. There’s no way out for us now.

[ Elevator bell dings ] I know that life is hard on you lately, and you’ve become a little more cynical. That’s not fair. I’m not saying that as a criticism. No, I know that we can’t be all pie in the sky all the time. I married a tough businessman, not some aspiring rock star that you were years ago.

[ Chuckles ] But… I married a man who put family first. I’m just saying that maybe it’s possible that you’ve strayed away from that a little bit lately. And maybe it’s possible that it’s time to get back to that. I’ll think about that. I got to check in with the chef, make sure everything’s running smoothly. Why don’t you snag as a table out on the terrace? Oh, I think I can manage that. Mm.

[ Chuckles ] I love you. I love you more.

[ Chuckles ] I’ll give you a call. Okay. Have a good night.

[ Gasps ] Zeke: Hey. Oh, my goodness. What a great surprise. Good to see you. Oh, elizabeth, have you met my brother zeke? Finn: Wasn’t sure you’d come tonight. Elizabeth: You weren’t the only one. May I escort you? Sure you want to be seen with me? It’d be my honor. Tracy, it’s drew. Any chance you can circle back to the metro court? Why here? Well, because we have to do this away from the rest of the family. Uh, there’s an important matter that I need to discuss with you. Martin, I never would’ve come forward if I knew that my identity could be exposed — and, more importantly, that sonny could be hurt. Nina, it’s not a done deal. But I’d be lying if I didn’t warn you that you should at least prepare for the possibility.

[ Sighs ] Geez. Listen. Wait, wait, wait. This isn’t over. In the meantime, I give you my word that I will do everything I can to make sure that no one finds out it was you who tipped off the sec about drew and carly. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to get back to the office before anybody knows I’m gone.

On the next “General Hospital” —

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

If you haven’t had dinner yet, we could swing by the pub. You sure you wanna risk another encounter with Lady Whistleblower? Ah, good point. Well, um, how about this? I could pick up some takeout, bring it to your place, that way we could avoid all the gossip columnists and anyone else for that matter.

Sounds like a plan. I’ll see you soon.

Hello?

Hi honey. I’m,

I have units in all the parks by the riverfront around the lake, and nothing yet. Well, does that surprise you? I mean, we don’t even know if Colin’s still in Salem. Right? Right. You know what? How about we go back to the top? Let’s go over everything that we know so far. Okay. Well, we know that when a woke up in the morning, Chanel was with him, but he didn’t recognize her.

So she went to go find his doctor. She left him alone for maybe. 15 minutes. Yeah, 15 minutes long enough for that bastard to grab a wheelchair, get Abe and roll him out of the hospital. And since Abe is suffering from memory loss, he would’ve not recognized Colin and went along willingly, especially since the guy was dressed as a cop.

Oh my God. Poor Abe. He might not even know the danger he’s in.

Oh, silly, silly, silly, silly me. I’ve been so concerned about you getting some rest and I completely forgot that you need to eat. Well, my love. Prepare yourself because I’m gonna go fix us the most delicious home cooked meal. You know, uh,

this just doesn’t seem like my home. I mean, uh, as I said before, this just doesn’t seem to be, uh, the least bit familiar. I’m just, I’m just not sure. Are you sure about what? That you’re my wife.

You need anything, mama? I need those damn cops to find my husband. I am so sick and tired waiting. Of course you are. And mama, I know you hate being told to calm down, but you gotta try to just breathe and stay positive. We don’t want your blood pressure spiking again, and you should probably try to keep something to keep up your strengths.

Your daughter is right if I know Abe Carver, and indeed I do. He would want the woman he loves to take care of herself. Mrs. Williams. Hi. Hi honey. Our patient is refusing to eat well. To be fair, the food is pretty unappetizing. Yeah. Would you mind staying here with Mama while I find her something else?

Like say a burger from the pub? Oh, yes. Oh yes. Oh, make it too, and it’s on me. Oh, no, no, no, no. It’s my tree, darling. Okay, I’ll Thank you, sweetheart. Paul. Oh, Paul. I came as soon as I heard you were admitted. Oh, it’s hypertension. No. Why the hell should I be test? My husband was kidnapped by this maniac, and it’s all my photo.

Julie. Julie, if anything happen, Tova, nothing’s gonna happen to him. Nothing’s gonna happen to Abraham because Abraham is a survivor. And if there’s one person in this town that can handle Bedford, it’s your Abraham.

Relax, Talia. Relax. Alright, that’s me. Yeah. I’m gonna move my hand, but you cannot scream. Not if you understand me here.

Where you want, just tell me, isn’t it clear and it’s.

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

Trip. What are you doing here? I live here unless you gave me the boot when I was back in Seattle. Of course not. I just, I wasn’t expecting you. And how’s Joey? He’s doing well. He’s doing well outta the hospital about six weeks now. And you can already get around pretty much on his own. Wow. Yeah.

Considering how badly his leg was broken, I figured it would take a lot longer. Let’s see. Is okay with you leaving? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. He and his girlfriend were okay with it. Ah, yeah. But don’t get me wrong, my brother was very appreciative that I came out and, uh mm-hmm. I obviously wouldn’t have left if the doctors didn’t give me the all clear.

But he was ready to have his place back and, uh, I had a pretty important reason to come home. Really? What? You

Chanel? Hey, I, uh, I heard about a being kidnapped. I’m so sorry. How’s Paulina holding up? Um, I mean, they just admitted her to the hospital for hypertension. Oh no. Yeah, she was already having panic attacks thanks to Sloan. And then now with Abe being kidnapped by Sloan’s insane brother. She’s scared to death.

So am I. Hey, hey, hey. Look, babe. Abe is gonna be just fine. All right. The cops are not gonna rest until they bring him home safely. Believe that. Because it’s true. You sound like Miss Julie. She’s staying with mom while I came to pick up food. Oh, see, great minds. I came to, uh, pick up some takeouts for Wendy and I And how’s that going?

So far so good. If I could just get, uh, Leo start to leave us alone, other guy is such an ass. Um, I’m. I, I really hope things work out with you guys. I really want you to be happy, G.

You have got to be kidding me. What, what, what happened? It’s a text from the DA’s office. Talia Hunter was released on bail. Seriously. Yeah. And I bet you that conniving bitch is right upstairs.

Come. This is gonna hurt me. Don’t worried I’m gonna hurt you. Huh? You pushed me off a bloody building. Carlin. I was trying to save you. Whoa. You were trying to save Chanel? No. You had a gut to her head. Okay. I was just trying to keep you from doing something that she would regret. I regret. The only thing I regret is that you get in my way.

I wanted that girl and her mom dead instead. We almost didn’t like that. I am so. Very disappointing in you, Talia. We almost had everything that we wanted and then you betrayed me. Hmm, for hmm. Save that worthless, homicidal war.

Hey, I just checked in with Officers Bates and Coffee. They’re going over every second of the hospital surveillance footage. Well, Collin’s pretty crafty, so it wouldn’t surprise me if you avoided the cameras. Yeah, but someone must have seen him trying to sneak Abe out of there. What about Widley King?

Of course, I’m your wife, Abraham. Who else would I be. I mean, my daughter showed you our wedding photo at the hospital, remember? Yes. Still, I, I don’t know. It just, oh, please, please, please, please don’t do that. Don’t do that. Please. Oh, it’s, somebody’s still feeling a little grumpy. Usually Mr. Tiger just makes you feel so much better.

Oh, it usually calms you down, but you don’t seem very calm. Because this just doesn’t feel right. Oh, listen, after what you’ve been through, Abraham, of course it doesn’t feel right for now, but soon your memory will come back. I know it will. I dunno. Look, I’m a nurse and this is just par for the course for what you’ve been through.

Pretty soon everything will start feeling normal again. Me and Mr. T and everything, I promise you. Okay. Okay. I will give it time. That’s the spirit.

Now, you know I am right. Abe would not want you blaming yourself for all this, but I am to blame Julie. If he didn’t marry me, he would’ve never been anywhere near that Colin Bedford. And, and that, that maniac blamed Chanel for happened to his parents and me for covering it up. Well, you knew that Chanel was innocent.

You knew it was just an accident. You were protecting your child, not my husband. This is the second time that Abe has been brutally attacked because my secrets and lies first tr bludgeons him and then he gets a skull cracked. But his animals well, as far as that TR situation is concerned, I think I’m to blame as much as anybody else.

Well, how can you say that? Don’t you remember? I’m the one that told AB Should find you that night. And tell you that he wanted you back. Oh, no, Julie, you was just being a good friend. You could not have known what TR was going to do to him. Well, any more than you knew what Bedford was gonna pull. Honey, please, please stop blaming yourself.

Now listen to me. You’re a wonderful woman. You’re smart as a whip, and you’re pretty, and you’re loyal, and you have. More love in your heart than anybody I ever met. You’re a blessing to all the people in your life, especially your husband and your daughter. They treasure you, Paulina, I think, more than you know.

So no more self-flagellation, you stop blaming yourself. Alright.

Thank you, Julie. I don’t know how I was gonna get through this without you. Oh, babe, you don’t have to worry about that because I’m not going anywhere and any minute now. The police are gonna catch a break from your lips. Julie, from your lips?

Lily King. Oh, she’s the nurse right? Yeah, she was on duty on Abe’s floor when he disappeared. Mm-hmm. It’s possible she saw something. Let’s find out.

Hey, this is police Commissioner Hernandez. I need contact information for someone on your staff. All right. I’m gonna go get dinner ready. You always go cook for my cooking. I do. Oh yes. Oh yes. I know exactly what to do to wet your appetite back in the

this just in folks, we have an update on the search for Fugitive Colin Bedford. We blew the entire plan apart. You’ve ruined it all. For what? The stupid skank, what I, I didn’t do it for Chanel, Colin. I did it for you to keep you from life in prison or worse, the death building. And no one would’ve known where I was if you hadn’t have brought your sister to the roof con.

I was terrified for, for you if you would’ve murdered both of those. One, I. Collin, it would’ve been no return for you. So what you decided to show his bike off a roof? That was an accident. Okay. I was trying to get the gun out of here. Come. You can’t possibly think that I wanted to go off the top of the roof of the Salem ends and my God, if it wasn’t for that awning.

Yeah, you’re right. Andrew’s working out for us and now every cop in the city is looking for you. Culin, what are you still doing here in Salem? And in my sister’s room of all places. Huh? Why didn’t you just run better? A woman that I love? Nah, not chance.

I am going upstairs right now to ring her scrawny little neck. Oh, hey Chanel, take it easy. How am I supposed to take it? Easy when that lying snake is free. Meanwhile, her cycle boyfriend is doing God knows what to ape. All right. First of all, Talia is not free. Okay? She’s out on bail and believe me, she’s gonna pay for what she did You mean worm her weight into my life, into my business, pretending to be my friend, trying to get me to fall for her.

Also, that she could destroy my life. How could I let this happen? Johnny? I, I feel like such a fool.

Free is nobody’s fool. Oh, no. If I hadn’t been so freaking clueless that maybe I could have stopped calling before he hurt Abe, I’m going upstairs to confront tall you. Oh, no you’re not. I have to. She might know where Colin took Abe. Even if she did, do you really think she’d give him up? I don’t know, but I owe it to my stepfather to try.

Fine. You can try, but I’m coming with you.

Well, Everything the way you left him. Yeah. Yeah. Nice and messy, you know. Now straighten up later, cuz right now I am starving. So how about I whip us up some shrimp tacos? I feel like my peppers and eggs, these will blow your mind. Wow, that sounds amazing. But I actually have dinner plans. Yeah. Johnny’s bringing over takeout.

Still hanging out with that guy. Huh? You know, I am. Yeah. Well, I just figured he’d moved to Transylvanian to do a documentary on vampires or married a couple more womb while I was away. He’s stunned. Neither, not too bad. But seriously, it’s uh, it’s fine that Johnny’s still around, you know? And like I told you back in Seattle, I, I, I respect that you’re keeping your options open, but, uh, but I’m gonna make sure that you have no problem.

And making the right choice. Very soon the right choice meaning me, in case you’re wondering. Trip, you seem different in a good way. Hmm. You just seem more confident. Yeah. I think that’s it. Yeah. Well, being away gave me time to think about how much I missed you. But also about what I wanted to change when I got back about myself.

I mean, you see in the past as women that I cared about, I didn’t assert myself enough, you know, when there was competition, I was too insecure or whatever, and I would just end up slightly stepping aside and then have all these regrets.

Well, I’m not gonna do that anymore. Now, from now on, I’m gonna make sure my intentions are known right from the start. Respectfully. Of course. Good for you. So, under the heading of being respectful, but also assertive, Wendy Shin, if you’ll have me, I intend to be your man,

Johnny. No, it is not a good idea for you to come upstairs with me. Well, you’re not going alone. If she’s as crazy as you say she is, she could try something because she’s not gonna hurt me.

Text from Wendy.

Look, Johnny, I need to go confront Talia alone. Why? Because that way she’s more likely to tell me where Abe is. If she feels threatened or ambushed, then she might not talk at all, and time is running out.

Okay, fine. But I am gonna be waiting right here. And if you don’t come back soon, I’m coming up there to get you deal. Thanks.

No, I understand that it’s against hospital policy to give out employee contact information, but this is an urgent police matter. By the time I get to Warren, it might be too late to help. Mayor Carver, please, please help me out in this.

Yeah,

got it. Thank you. Okay, I got it. Nurse Whitley’s contact info. Great. Let’s find out what she knows about Abe’s disappearance. Yep.

Bedford, who escaped police custody this morning. Is believed to be responsible for, what the hell did you do that for? I heard them talking about that awful man who attacked you. Believe me, we don’t need to relive those grizzly details. I absolutely do. I mean, I, I, I’m, I might be able to recover some of my memories.

Oh, believe me, darling. Those memories are best left, forgotten. I don’t even know why this man attacked me. I mean, what did I do to him? Oh, darling, we don’t need to talk about this right now. I want to talk about it. I want you to tell me what happened. So please, Paul tell me,

oh, come on. We

aren’t you gonna get that

you stay for me. Of course. I need you, Talia. I can’t imagine my life about you. That’s why we’re gonna leave sale together. Come on, let’s go. Mm.

Well, you don’t wanna come with me. No, I do. I I just need the pack bag first. That’s all. Forget the bag. You can get whatever you need on the road. Okay. But before we leave, can I ask you something? Colin, where’s Abe Carver? How hell are you talking about?

I know you

up now.

They let Talia Hunter go, Belinda, trash just text me and Chanel like the ful, little heifer mabell. Well, I don’t see how that’s possible. I mean, it’s a fact that you worked for Bedford. She sent you those awful texts. She ransack your office. Not to mention poisoning half of Salem, how could they do that?

Even the see for little heifers are entitled to due process and I doubt Natalia will ever help Colin again. See, that’s how she risked her own life to help me and Chanel on that roof was an awful experience. Thank God. You’re all right. And Chanel too. I wish I could say the same for a. I keep saying that, that look in Colin’s eyes, when he was holding me captive, I was like, rage.

What if he, what if he’s taking out his anger at me out on? What if he’s, he’s punishing me by making sure that my husband never come. It’s just, it truly know, you know, it can’t end this way. Honey, honey, honey, honey, it’s not going honey sweetie pie. It’s not gonna end. It’s not gonna end. Not a chance. We’re gonna be many, many more chapters through our love story with a, and I believe is how.

It’s about time for your first wedding anniversary, isn’t it? Oh, rest, right. You know, oh, with everything going on, it’s just, it’s, it slipped my mind. Well, didn’t slip mine. When you mark my words, Mrs. Carver, in just a very short time, you’re gonna be holding Abraham in your arms again, and the two of you are gonna be celebrating your first wedding anniversary.

And all of Salem is gonna be celebrating Juneteenth. Oh,

who is? Who’s calling? It says potential spam, probably one of those darn telemarketers. I see, I see. Well, I’m gonna go get that delicious dinner for us. You get ready back in

voicemail, Ms. King, this is Police Commissioner Ray Hernandez. I need to speak with you right away about the abduction of Mayor Abe Carver. I understand that you were on duty when it happened, so please call me back at this number as soon as possible. Thank you. All right. I guess we’re just gonna have to wait for her to call us back, or you could visit her in person.

I, uh, I think you’ve made your intentions pretty clear. Remember what you said to me right before I left Seattle that I hoped you come around to realizing that you and I were great together. Hey, see that was a passive statement. I don’t plan to be passive anymore. What do you plan to do? Sweep you off your feet, make you forget all about Johnny Damara and.

All other men, respectfully of course, provided that I’m still in the money. You are. No, you are. Cool. Yeah. So tonight you go ahead and wait for Johnny and his lukewarm takeout. And then when you’re ready for something, a whole lot more appetizing, you know where to find me.

Looks like I’ll get a second chance without homework and a husk after all. No, darling. You can’t. Why not? Because it’s a restaurant full of people downstairs and if you shoot Chanel, they’re gonna hear, they’re gonna call the cops. So strangling my bad hands. Listen to me, okay? We have a chance to get out of here.

If you act impulsive for both women, end up in person. Fuck. Just talk to her. Okay, I’ll There to go away and, and then we can leave. Just like you said, we go far, far away. Okay. Just so can you just, the two of us. Okay. Trust me, I can handle it

fun. Make it quick.

Look, now is not a good time. Okay. Well, too damn bad. You’re gonna make time for what I have to say. Okay, fine. Whatever. Whatever. That’s all you have to say after everything you’ve done to me, girl, please. Okay. Give it a rest already. Excuse me. Are you tired of playing victim all the time. Poor me. I didn’t deserve any of this.

Yeah. Well, the hell you don’t. Okay. You brought all of this on yourself. When you seduced a married man and killed his wife, that is not how it went down. I don’t care what your deranged boyfriend told you. And speaking of Colin, what the hell did he do with Abe? Look, I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Oh yeah, you’re lying. I know he told you. Listen, he hasn’t told me anything. Okay. I haven’t seen or spoken to Colin ever since we got taken to the hospital. Okay. Yeah. And you know who else was in that hospital, Abe, because he had to get brain surgery since your boyfriend bashed him over the head with a rolling pin.

And then after he woke up, Colin kidnapped him. So I need you to tell me where he is. Look, I can’t tell you anything that I don’t know. You know what Colin’s doing is wrong, and that is why you saved my life up on that roof. God, don’t flatter yourself, okay? Your life means nothing. I did it for Colin so he wouldn’t get a murder charge.

As in that’s what you did to his mother. You’re a damn liar. Look, I don’t care what you believe, Chanel okay? But you, you have to leave and you have to leave out. Okay? Leave. Thank you. The hell outta here and don’t come back.

Wow, something smells great. Not half as great as you look.

So where’s your date? Wasn’t he supposed to be here by now? Yeah, he was. I assume he’s on his way. Right? Right. And uh, don’t worry, you know, when he finally shows up late. I’ll make sure I take these delicious tacos into my room and enjoy them all by myself. Right? Or you could cancel on. Cecil be Damara. And he with me.

What, what, what’s, what’s wrong? I think he’s up there. Oh, Colin Bedford, you saw him. No, but I, I saw tall yet, and she claimed to know nothing about Abe, and she said that she hasn’t seen Colin since the two of them went flying off of that roof. But as I was being forced out by her, she. She mouth helped me and she slipped this into my hand.

That’s a police patch, a real one. Holy crap. One Bedford escape from the hospital. He got the jump on. A cop stole his uniform and his gun. That’s it. I’m calling Ray. Here we go. Here we go, darling. Bone appetit. I thought you were making a home cooked meal. Well, this is our home and I cooked it in the microwave.

Now Abraham, you know, I haven’t had the time to go grocery shopping. What with you in the hospital? Fighting for your life? I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I, I thank you. Thank you for this. You are very welcome. Well, you go ahead and dig in. I’m gonna go make the bed so we can turn in right after supper. I, Paul awake.

Oh, what’s wrong? I can’t do that. I can’t go to bed with you.

We have Nurse Whitley’s address. I say we go over there and see what she knows. Oh, who’s driving? I’ll take those. Oh wait. Hold on a second. Johnny Jamira. I better take this. Hey Johnny. What’s up Ray? You need to get down to the pub right away. I’ll, I’m here with Chanel and we think that Colin Bedford is upstairs with Talia.

I’m on my way. What’s going on? Johnny and Chanel, they’re at the pub. They think Talia might be there with Colin. Let’s go.

I told you I could get rid of her. It’s good to see your head back in the game, and I thought you’d gone soft on me

not taking a second chance. Slaughter little right. When he dies down, I’ll sneak back into town and I’ll finish the job off. And little will mama too. Yeah, absolutely. That’s my girl.

Listen, we should probably get going before you went to pack a bag. No, you’re right. I’ll just grab stuff as we go, you know, at a discount store or something. All right then.

Where’s the badge? I put it right there on the table. Where is the badge? I don’t, I don’t know what you’re talking about. Stop lying to me. Stupid little cow. You gave it to Chanel.

It is taking so long. We’re the hell are the cops. Brooke said he was on his way. Okay. Well he needs to hurry. Is that Rafe? No, it’s Wendy. Oh. Oh crap. I totally forgot about her. Uh, Wendy. Hey Johnny. Where are you? I thought you were coming over. I know. Uh, listen, something came up. I’m with Chanel. Chanel? Yes.

We, we ran into each other at the pub and it, I’m, I’m sorry, I gotta go. Oh, thank God you’re here. I bedford’s upstairs with my sister. I think so. Based on what?

Shaw’s badge, that’s the officer they’re calling. Bedford was impersonating. Where’d you get that? Uh, I heard that Talia was released on bail. So I went upstairs to ask if she knew where Abe was and she said no. And then she kicked me out. But as I was leaving, she shoved that badge into my hand and mouth.

Help. We have to get up here. Yeah, stay here.

Everything. Okay? Johnny’s not coming. He’s with Chanel. Oh,

are you okay? Yeah, I’m fine.

And I am suddenly so in the mood for tacos. Awesome.

How come you’re hurting me? This’s is nothing compared to what I’ll do to if you don’t find that badge,

I dunno, maybe felt under the table or something. Just give it up back. Stop you bitch. I know what you’ve done. All right. I mean, I’m gonna make you pay for it. Oh God. Please. It’s over, Colin. Let her go now.

Drop the weapon. Drop it back up.

You are under arrest. No. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney cannot afford. One will be provided for you.

If I hadn’t known Chanel was going to take this long to pick up those burgers, I’d done settled for that hospital garbage. Mm. Pass me that Turkey sandwich, please. Of course. Well, you know how easily distracted kids are these days with their phones. Everything is to this and snap up that, you know? I hope that’s all it is.

And. She hasn’t had another running with that tire. God forbid Colin Bedford, I don’t know how much more trauma my family can take. Hey, I, I, I don’t want you to feel bad about this, but I, I wouldn’t feel comfortable sharing a bed with you and I, I don’t remember who you are. Well, um, this sofa lets out into a bed.

I can set that up for you for the time being. Well, I appreciate that. Oh, of course, sweetheart. And it’s only temporary, right? We have the whole rest of our lives to snuggle together in our marital bed.

Morning. Good morning. Coffee’s ready. Oh, thank you. Oh man. So did you hear from Johnny last night? No, not this morning either. Hmm. That’s strange. I mean, he’s on his way over here with takeout and then he calls you, says he’s with Chanel and then nothing. Hmm. I don’t think he’s still with her. Do you?

Six cups of coffee and high still.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Relaxing music ]

Ridge: I know, carlo. That’s beautiful. It is. E’ perfetto.Ie. All right. Ciao, carlo. Ciao, ciao. Carlo says hello in a special way and I’m very sorry.

Brooke: No, I could listen to you speak italian every single day.

Ridge: And I’m sorry our conversation got interrupted.

Brooke: Oh, don’t worry. You’re doing what you can to make hope’s preview a success and I love you for that. Besides, haven’t we apologized to each other enough? I don’t want to have to say “I’m sorry” to you one more time. And my relationship with taylor may be a bust, but it did teach me to find happiness within myself and I wanna share that happiness with you. We’ve been apart too long, ridge. It is time that I reunite with the love of my life.

[ Taylor sighing ]

Steffy: Can I get you anything? Iced tea?

Taylor: Oh, gosh. Maybe– maybe something with honey. I was screaming so loud, I lost my voice. Are the kids home?

Steffy: Uh, no. Story time at the library and finn is at the hospital, so it’s just us. How you doing?

[ Taylor exhaling ] I know you didn’t really want to get into it at the office, so…

Taylor: I am hurt. I’m– I’m– I… brooke was just accusing me of all kinds of things and… I’m sure she’s still talking to ridge right now.

Steffy: And that worries you because you want to be with him? You want dad back.

Hope: Um, hey. We need to have a talk.

Thomas: Okay, but if this is about our parents.

Hope: Did you know about what your mother did to my mom?

Thomas: Yeah, my mom was here and she was pretty upset. Um, but I don’t wanna get involved in that.

Hope: Okay, well I’m– I’m not trying to come at you at all, I just don’t want all that to affect us.

Thomas: Yeah, right, so let’s just let them work it out.

Hope: But taylor did betray my mom and I can’t just ignore that.

Thomas: Okay, but there’s no reason– there’s no reason to get mixed up in these things.

Hope: Well, unfortunately, I think I already am involved, annoying. Did I ever tell you about my mom agreeing to go on that date with hollis?

Thomas: No. Is that– is that the guy from the restaurant?

Hope: The waiter, yeah.

Thomas: Okay.

Hope: So I thought that taylor was just setting them up out of the goodness of her own heart, being a good friend, but really, she was purposefully trying to do that, and when that didn’t work out, she then started to push my dad my mom’s way.

Thomas: Okay, but you don’t want your parents together?

Hope: Well, no, I just– I don’t want them being manipulated by taylor just so she can make a beeline to your father.

Taylor: My intentions to set brooke up on dates and do all that, that was never nefarious.

Steffy: But mom, I’m not asking that. I’m asking if you want dad back.

Taylor: But see, brooke and I– brooke and I swore off your father, we both did, and then something happened and I started to realize, maybe she’s not keeping her side of the pact, so then, I went to deacon, and yes, I did push him, but that doesn’t mean that I was manipulating her this entire time, but she keeps going on with that.

Steffy: Mom, okay, I– I believe you. I believe you. And brooke is in no position to be pointing fingers, especially with her shady behavior and her shady history. I’m just trying to make sense of this all. It’s a shock. It is a shock. You still want a future with dad.

[ Taylor sighing ]

Ridge: You and taylor told me you wanted nothing to do with me.

Brooke: Well, I just, uh, I needed some time, you know? I needed some space to figure out what it was that I truly wanted. What makes me happy. And yes, every relationship has ups and downs, but you and I, everything that we’ve shared together, that’s forever. Our love is eternal. My a1c was up here; now, it’s down with rybelsus.

Hope: My mom doesn’t need me to defend her and I don’t want you to have to feel like you need to defend your mother either.

Thomas: I’m sorry this is going on. I really am.

Hope: I just– I feel naive. I mean, I actually thought their friendship might last.

Thomas: Yeah, I think we all did, but I’m not ready to give up on it yet. I mean, look, things weren’t exactly great between us recently.

Hope: Hm. But see you earned my trust back, whereas your mom is doing the opposite.

Thomas: Well, we knew everything would get complicated when my dad came back into town. That doesn’t have to interfere with us.

Hope: No, I agree. I don’t want to get in the middle of it.

Thomas: No, that’s really my dad’s place.

[ Both laughing ] Look, I’m not gonna let any of this derail what’s going on with us and the line.

Hope: [ Chuckling ] Well, we can’t let it because we have rome coming up and the showing and I’m already nervous enough as is having to get up on that stage.

Thomas: No reason to be nervous. You’re gonna be terrific. I think we should take our cue from rj. Not get involved in any of the drama because I don’t want any of that to jeopardize our success.

Taylor: Thank you. You know, I never stopped loving your dad.

Steffy: Oh, I know.

Taylor: And you know, that’s not what the pact was about with brooke. It wasn’t about loving your dad. It was about honesty and transparency when it came to him.

Steffy: Yeah, but you weren’t cutting dad out of your life.

Taylor: But I tried to. I was convinced I had. I was moving on. I was done. It’s– it wasn’t just about me, you know, wanting to be with you dad.

Steffy: But you still want to be with him, mom.

Taylor: Do you think that we make each other happy?

Steffy: I think you guys are great together. You have this special connection. But does this mean your friendship with brooke is over?

Taylor: Oh, yeah. I have tried so hard to push down my feelings for your dad, but now I don’t need to anymore. God, even after everything we have been through… I still adore him.

Steffy: Well, he adores you.

Taylor: Yeah, I can only imagine what brooke is saying to him right now because I am– I am certain that– that she wants him back too.

Brooke: Look, taylor and i choose ourselves for a lot of reasons, but we weren’t rejecting you, ridge.

Ridge: Mm, you chose your futures without me.

Brooke: Uh, our futures without the pain and conflict that our tug of war caused.

Ridge: I hurt you both. I know.

Brooke: Yeah, you did. You abandoned our marriage without any explanation whatsoever, and I couldn’t even do anything to fix things. You took off and proposed to taylor.

Ridge: And I hate that I did that.

Brooke: Well, it didn’t end well for her either.

Ridge: It didn’t really work for any of us, did it?

Brooke: Uh, we did get something out of it.

Ridge: You guys did. Yeah, you had a great friendship for a little while. What did I get? Got kicked to the curb and that’s it. It’s just that– that stung a little.

Brooke: Ridge, you have to understand. I mean, we got caught up in the emotion of it, of taking control of our lives. Can you imagine?

Ridge: And I’m not– no, I’m not attacking you. I– I like that you stood up for yourself. It’s– it’s good. I respect it.

Brooke: Okay. I mean, looking back, I– I could have done things differently. Not the part where I chose myself, but the part where I chose taylor as a friend. That was miscalculated. Hm. That’s why… I just wanna focus on us and the possibility of the life that we can share together. – Bedtime!! – Bedtime.

Thomas: If you don’t have any more changes, I wanna get this one over to the patternmaker.

Hope: Thomas, it’s beautiful. I mean, the movement.

Thomas: I knoW. I wanna get it in production for rome.

Hope: This gown with that backdrop. I mean.

Thomas: I know. Did you see the photos that katie sent? It’s breathtaking.

Hope: I know. The entire trip is gonna feel that way. I mean, it’s like, something out of my wildest dreams.

Thomas: Yeah, mine too.

Hope: It’s exciting.

Thomas: Yeah. Well, it’s, uh– it’s the kind of reveal that this collection deserves.

Hope: Well, I’m glad you’re gonna be there.

Thomas: Yeah, me too. Um, I don’t mean to bring things down at all, but…

[ Thomas chuckling ] Is liam okay with us going to italy together?

Taylor: I don’t want to feel insecurity and doubt and–

Steffy: Yeah, that never does any good.

Taylor: No, it doesn’t, and it’s not necessary. You know, even if brooke is spewing her best logan logic to try and make a case for herself with your dad.

Steffy: You don’t think dad will be convinced.

Taylor: I don’t know. I– I am– I am done explaining and defending myself. I… I– I have better things to think about right now. Just you and thomas and my grandkids and how amazing this trip to rome is going to be for thomas.

Steffy: I know. This preview is gonna take thomas to a whole new level.

Taylor: You know what I did? I, um, I mentioned to your dad that maybe I would like to go. That I would like to be there with you and thomas in rome.

Steffy: Me, thomas and… dad.

Brooke: Don’t you see, ridge? There’s no more misunderstandings. No more obstacles between us. It’s almost like a clean slate and rj is back in town with us.

Ridge: Rj’s back. No, it’s great. Things are better. The kids are safe and they’re thriving.

Brooke: Mm-hmm. And we could be too.

Ridge: We’re doing okay.

[ Brooke chuckling ]

Brooke: We’re doing okay, yeah. We’re doing better than okay, I think. We just, um, we just need some time alone.

Ridge: I love that idea, love time alone with you, but let’s try to be realistic for a moment. You told me you didn’t want me in your life anymore. That you want to put yourself first and I don’t want to disrupt that. You just said no more apologies, right? And I’m with you. Let’s not apologize anymore. The best way to do that is to not put ourselves in a situation where we have to apologize. And stop hurting each other and stop doing whatever we did over the years to tear us apart. I love you so much, that’s never gonna change. We gotta be honest with each other. You gotta be honest with you. Do we have enough to make this work? Give this another shot? Or is this just something that we do because it’s easy? Because it’s– it’s a nice, comfortable place to land? Because we’ve called this home for so long.

Hope: Don’t worry about liam.

Thomas: So, liam knows I’m gonna be in rome?

Hope: I told him not to worry about you, and so you don’t worry about him.

Thomas: The trip’s gonna be intense.

Hope: Okay. So then, we should focus on the work and if I have issues at home, then that is where I will handle them.

Thomas: Okay. Rome is a go. Moving on. Um, if we want to speed up production on this, honestly, we could take out some of the detail on the edge.

Hope: No, no, no. But I love that.

Thomas: No, look, promise. If you just take out the external part–

[ Hope’s heart thumping ] We could just make it a much smaller patch here and that’ll be so much faster for them to fix up.

Taylor: You know, thomas is making such a huge impact on the fashion world. I’m just– I’m just so proud of both of you.

Steffy: Yeah, I just wanna make sure hope for the future is a huge success.

Taylor: Yeah, I hope that italy is a huge success for everybody.

Steffy: So, you’re really thinking about coming along?

Taylor: I mean, it would– it would be nice. I would love to be there when your brother’s designs are unveiled.

Steffy: Well, katie is still working on the list and the guests and travel–

Taylor: I can’t– I– I– I haven’t– I haven’t got that far in my head. It’s just a thought right now. Of course, I’d love to be there right now with you and thomas. It would be great to connect with ridge.

Steffy: As a couple.

Taylor: Look, I’m just– I’m just saying that it would be really nice to– to clear the air with him.

Steffy: And you know, I really like that you and dad are still so close and the love is still there, but, um, this time, I’m not gonna push. I’ve learned my lesson. So, know that I support you, but, uh, like you said, who knows?

Ridge: You told me not too long ago that we’re not teenagers anymore. That we can’t just follow our impulses.

Brooke: What? I said that?

Ridge: Oh, you said that. I remember because you were wearing that little blue number and it’s just burned into my brain. I don’t know why.

[ Brooke chuckling ]

Brooke: Yeah, that’s right. I remember. I– I remember that night. That was after dinner.

Ridge: After dinner and things were getting a little interesting and you sent me home. Sent me to dad’s house.

Brooke: What? What was I thinking?

Ridge: You were thinking that we’re grown-ups, and that there are repercussions to the actions that we have and that’s why I want to be a grown-up right now. The last thing I want to do is hurt you. Do I– do I wanna be with you and– and play with you? Yes, absolutely, I wanna do that, but I also know our history and I know the things that have happened and that changes things. I used to have all the answers to everything. Now, I know nothing. I live at my dad’s house. I’m lost.

Brooke: Ridge, you’re not lost. I mean, we all feel that way sometimes.

Ridge: That’s my point. So, maybe this whole thing about destiny, maybe that’s just some word that some writer came up with because he didn’t know what to do with his characters at the end of the book. I don’t know.

Brooke: What?

Ridge: I love the life that we had, the love that we had for each other, for our kids. That’s eternal. That’s never gonna go away.

Brooke: Okay, good. Good. But what about the passion? What about that? Because I know that’s still there. I feel it and I know you feel it too, so I need you, ridge, and you need me. I see that little glint in your eye, that mischievous little smile, so I know you believe it too because it’s the passion and the fire that we have had forever, and that is not going anywhere. That is going to be there no matter what. And I meant it. I really did. I meant it when I said, “I need you.” And you, big guy, you need me. Come here.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Congratulations on your first day at your brand new.

Did it not go well? Oh no. It went great. So great that I quit. All because of your partner, Gwen.

Start date ASAP requirements. Don’t be Chloe Lane. 20. I need your help. I’m in trouble. Big trouble. What is it now, Marty? It’s a nightmare is what it is. There’s a cycle on Halluc. He’s got me the sights. Guess I surprised you, mother. I’m telling him. Boy. Yes you did. You don’t call, you don’t write. Oh, but look, what’s important is that you’re here now in the family home where you belong.

Yet another prodigal son, just what the family needed. This isn’t some sick competition, okay? This is about a child, a life. And I need you to, to be kind to each other and to me, because it, it breaks my heart at the one thing that I have longed for for so long. Something that is a, a blessing and a miracle ends up being fraught and painful.

I need you to help me through this, okay. Whatever the results are, whoever the father is. Can you do that for me please? Ah, Nicole. I have your results.

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

Can we go somewhere private please? I would love to, but I am the middle of dealing with an emergency. Does it have something to do with Colin Jeffrey? Well, it’s about a lot more than that. Abe disappeared this morning, too. Disappeared right out of his recovery room, and the precinct of the two of those things are probably connected.

Oh, where are you Colin? What are you up to now?

Colin, open up at the police.

What do you want? Yes, a warrant. Seriously, do you actually think I would be dumb enough to hide my brother at my own apartment? Maybe not, but if you are helping him, there may be evidence in here somewhere if I were helping him, which I’m not. I wouldn’t also be dumb enough to be leading clothes lying around.

Right.

You know, the department might be better off recruiting some officers who aren’t so easily overpowered by a guy who just fell off a roof. You’ll listen to me, Ms. Peterson. The mayor is missing and your brother might have him, and if you have the slightest idea of where he is, I suggest that you tell me now because I promise you things will not go well for your brother or you.

Could you be a bit more specific? This town is full of psychos. Hello? The one who tried to murder the mayor, not to mention his wife and daughter. Colin Bedford is out to get you. That makes no sense. Uh, you could try showing a little more concern if for no other reason than I’m covering half the rent. I just think you’re being a bit paranoid.

Oh, you’ve never heard the expression. Just because you’re paranoid does not mean they’re not out to get you. Okay, darling, why is Colin out to get you? Oh, thank you for asking. Finally, so here’s what happened. I lost my phone in the park, so I started to panic thinking about how my mentions must be piling up.

So I flagged down this super hot cop to help and it turned out to be him. Colin Bedford pose as a police officer. Yeah. And now he knows that I know that he’s no cop and he wants me dead. How long do you think it is until he shows up at the door?

So tell me. What took you so long to show up here? Yeah. Blame the tired antics of the US government. Let’s just say that they were less than thrilled to grant us our immunity in exchange for the turn of Shane Donovan’s son. So they made sure to make my customs process a rather arduous one. Well, I am just glad that you’re here now, finally, where you belong.

Mm-hmm. Now you remember your aunt Kristin? Oh yes. How could I forget yet? Last time I saw you? My quest for some precious jewels wound up putting my own jewels in quite an unnerving jeopardy, whatever are you talking about? You don’t recall our encounter in Amsterdam? You pointed a gun at my crotch. Oh man.

Yeah. Yeah, that, yeah. Well, I didn’t know you were my nephew at the time, huh? I thought you were some pesky. I s a agent in the thro of Inci Billy Reid. Okay. Enough. Hmm. Let us just let bygones be bygones, shall we? Especially a few two are going to be married. What? What?

I don’t get it. What? Why exactly did you quit your job at the newspaper? Two words. Too many letters. SWE rises in check. All right. What did she do? What didn’t she do? That bitch rolled out the unwelcome mat in so many awful ways. I lost count. Do you know where my office was? Wasn’t on the executive floor?

No, it was in the broom closet. She literally put an old desk in the closet with a landline and a dialup modem. Come on. There’s no way that true that you’re exaggerating. I, I wish I was. And then she was texting me every 45 minutes with some new unreachable sales goal. Maybe she was trying to motivate you.

Oh, come on, sander. She was setting me up to fail. Oh, listen, I know that you stuck your neck out for me for this job. I’m not gonna put up the crap like that from anyone. Don’t be sorry. I I should be sorry. I had no idea she’s gonna treat you like this. Well, you tried. Yeah, I did. I think the problem is you did not.

I’m sorry. What? Please don’t quit. Not yet. Why the hell not? Isn’t it obvious if you quit? Gwen Wenner.

Come on, Mattie. Nobody’s coming here to murder you. Well, another cockeyed optimist. You are Colin Bedford is on the run from the law, or the least of his problems matter if I go yapping to the police about my encounter with him, which obviously he doesn’t want. Hence he’d prefer me to be pushing up daisies.

Come now. What could you possibly tell the police that they don’t already know? I cannot believe you were being so bla about this. The guy is legit scary Gwenny, not to mention blazing hot, especially once he dropped the cop act and started talking in his real accent and a little smile, huh? So charming.

Honestly, I do feel like there was some chemistry between us. See, look at that. He probably thinks you’re hot too. If there was chemistry, you’ve got nothing to worry about. Just focus on something else. Like what? Light your next column. I am not writing about that. Limey. Hunk, if that’s what you mean.

Offering to tell his story is what got him riled up in the first place. Right. I get that. No, um. Actually, I need you to find me some dirt on somebody else.

Mother, I’ve been in America for less than an hour and you’re already trying to marry me off. To my Aunt Mel. Yes. Yes. And you. And you make this outrageous suggestion without consulting me first because I was confident that you go along with it. Look, you too aren’t related by blood, as you well know. And this is hardly breaking new dira grounds.

Didn’t my father raise you to be my brother? Tony’s intended. Yeah. Well that was a long time ago and hardly something I am proud of. Uh, but it was father’s wish and so you saw the wisdom in it, and I see we still do now. I raised my glass to the upcoming NEP tools. Of two superior human beings

outta curiosity. Has a Salem PD ever heard of conflict of interest? Let’s not forget you have family mixed up in this mess too, detective. My sister would’ve had nothing to do with this if it hadn’t been for your lunatic brother and his dry for revenge. Of course, your sister’s the innocent victim, even though she’s the one who’s actually committing the crimes that my brother’s being accused of.

Just finish your search and get out of here already. Okay. I. God, I fed enough in my mind with my boyfriend’s ex being pregnant. Excuse me. Oh, you didn’t know. Yeah. Nicole knocked up. And, um, since you’re bound to ask this, I’ll just save you the time. The baby might be Eric’s,

are you okay? Yeah, it’s just. It’s Abe. I know, I know. Maybe you should. We’re gonna find him, Nicole. I’ll get on the phone right now and I volunteer. Damir is security Force to helping the search. Thank you. Are, are there any leads as to where Abe went? Not yet. Um, listen, I need to go to my office today. Head at the hospital is waiting for an update.

Okay. Well we understand. Okay. I am, I’m if you need me. Thank you, Kayla, for running the test, Uhhuh.

This is, I know exactly who this piece of buttered toast is. Formerly hunky all-American ISA agent Kyle Graham, well still hunky, but now Dimitri von Roiner’s his name and blowing up the world is his game. Did you say he’s not dangerous? Okay, I might, but that’s just because it’s such a good story. So what is this supposed to be?

Some sort of jailhouse interview? Ah, you are a bit behind on the news, aren’t you, darling? No. Not only is Dimitri free as a bird, turns out he’s also got some deeper roots in this town. What kind of roots? Rotten ones. Our little handsome Dimitri here is a Demara, another one of Stefano’s bastards. Mm. Close Megan Hathaway’s son.

Ah, there’s a twist on a twist. Mm-hmm. And my sources say that his plane has just landed in Salem Evil family reunion. That’s what I want you to find out. Why is he here and what does he want? Sounds great. Lady gb, you’re have to get someone else to cover it. I’ve already got one psycho killer after me. I sure shoot and don’t need another one.

Yeah, sure. We’re aware that we’re not blood related, but we’re also not a good math. Yeah. And to put it mildly, this is especially not our age difference. Ah, watch it. And also other. General Incompatibilities, hang on, come on. I think you two could be highly compatible if you gave it a shot. You’re both extremely bright.

Mm-hmm. Charming. Mm-hmm. Charismatic. Put that aside. I propose that you propose Dimitri for practical reasons and I propose that you explain what the hell that means. Well, I have recently been made aware of the fact that there’s a very sizable amount of Von ROI money that Dimitri is in line to collect.

There are strings. There always are. Okay, and what are the strings? The trust specifies that he must be married by the time he turns 40. And how old are you now? 39 and three quarters. Mother. Why have I never heard of this? Trust? I’ll wait for the same reason I haven’t until now. There are some members of your extended family who are hoping that you won’t make the deadline, but the money is yours provided you act.

And how much money are we talking here? More than enough to kickstart our plans. Plans. Oh, that’s right. You weren’t here. Kristen and I want to take over the world. I assume you’re in

Eric and Nicole. They’re not even seeing each other. And Nicole’s dating edit Damara last I heard. She is. So if Nicole is pregnant with Eric’s baby, You can blame your sister for that one. What does my sister have to do with this? She’s the one that spiked those biscuits seems. Nicole and Eric got their hands on a couple and while under the influence got all about ej me birth control.

I see all that’s unfortunate for everyone involved. Yeah, it’s true. I mean, it must bring up some painful memories for you too. I mean, you and Eric. You would still be together. You hadn’t gotten that abortion. You guys could be singing Sweet Little Lullabies, little Eric or Erica Jr. Instead, he might finally get to be a father with someone else.

If you wanna wait to open that until we get news about hey. But I totally understand. Oh, okay. The FO sympathy. You want answers just as much as I do. Better to get this over and done with now, and once we have the answer, you can concentrate on bringing home your dear friend. Sure. Because it’s all about Abe Bright, ej.

You sick and tired of him hanging around, buzzing in your ear with all his sanc. Please, both of you just let me do this.

Well, what does it say,

Eric? It says that. You’re not a match. I knew it. I knew it. The child is mine. Old darling. It’s a miracle. Nothing less. Oh, we can give it a gift.

Congratulations. Oh, Eric, I’m sure of this. Stevens a bit, but in the long run it’s what’s best for everyone involved. We don’t have to go through the awkwardness of you and Nicole raising a child together while her and I in a relationship, and your girlfriend has spared the pain of you fathering a child with another woman.

In a sense, everyone to win it today. I guess that’s it. I wish you best of luck with everything. Thank you,

Dolly. This is a gift. It changes everything. It does.

See, told you you wouldn’t find anything.

Oh, look at there. No people, no clues, no breadcrumbs. Just me. If you feel like grilling somebody though, you could check in with Leo Stark. Why would I question Stark? Well, because he said he ran into my brother earlier today. What? Why didn’t you tell me that when I got here? Hmm. Oh, because it’s not my job to help you do your job.

You withheld vital information in an ongoing case. You wanna arrest me as an accessory? Go ahead. I would love nothing more than to sue you in the department for false arrest,

not.

Look, I know Gwen can be difficult at times, but please don’t close the door on this opportunity. You said yourself, the spectator could be the perfect fit for you. There’s nothing perfect about working with that witch. Ah, I know, but she’s only bullying you because she didn’t get away. You mean because she doesn’t like that I’m living here with you.

Whatever the reason. I know you can overcome this. You’re not afraid of bullies, aren’t you? Hell no. I’ve been standing up to them since I was in high school. There you go. So, you know, the only way to beat a bully is to prove to them that you can’t be pushed around, that they’re not gonna break you, not get bored and move on to the next target.

So, I’m just supposed to be miserable until she’s bored with me. Yes. Perfect. Exactly. But I, I’ll be there to minimize the misery or fight every indignity. She throws you away. And I just need you to fight too. I know you’ve got it in you. Oh, maybe I don’t wanna fight. Maybe I’m just tired, Chloe. It has only been one day.

Yeah, tomorrow’s gonna be the same way. And then the next day and the next day and the next day. Why should I subject myself to that? Do it for me.

Stay in the job for you. Look, Gwen and I are locked in a battle of Will and if you leave, I’ll be on my own against that woman. That woman who you used to love. Yeah. Well now she lives to antagonize me in it. But if you quit, she’s gonna use that as proof that I was wrong about you and everything else and she’ll never stop lording it over me.

I do believe that, Hmm. I mean, from here on out, it’ll just be one battle after another and unrelenting slog of bickering. And also, he’s gonna turn me into the most miserable roommate. You’ll come home every day to a darkened apartment and a brooding Scotsman just staring off into the distance, contemplating how his life turned into such a hot mess.

Mm-hmm. That does sound tragic. How could you possibly do that to me after everything we’ve been through, getting these pictures up on the walls? Okay, stop it. You had me at brooding Scotsman, so you will stick at it. You’ll stay at the job. I’ll give it another try. You won’t regret it, I promise. Mm, we’ll see about that.

In the meantime, pour us a couple glasses of that. Oh, forget the champagne. Let’s go out and celebrate. I’ll tell you wherever you wanna go. Oh, honestly, I’m not really in the mood. I’d rather just stay and put my feet up and watch a movie. Can we just order delivery? Absolutely not. You’re sacrificing yourself for my sanity.

You deserve better. I’m gonna prepare a feast now. I’m not named Cook for nothing. Hey, he’s got jokes for first a toast. To your ultimate victory in Gwen’s inevitable defeat.

Can’t believe the great lady whistleblower would pass on such a juicy story. And I can’t believe that you’ve forgotten how I’m the one who switched the emerald on that. A manian peacock, that va lo MiiR, whatever the hell his name is, needed to Doctor Evil the world. Well, that’s why I think your histories makes you so uniquely suited for this job, except that the guy probably wants me dead for foiling, his plants.

I don’t need another psycho when he put my head on the wall. Very well. We just have to find somebody else then to cover the greatest and largest story of the year somebody else can buy for the Pulitzer. Pulitzer. Yeah. Book deal. You know, you write a story like this, an article like this, and you get a podcast or bestseller or hit series.

I do love crime shows. Mm. Yeah. This is, uh, All the elements here for a great breakaway hit, money, power, hot, untrustworthy guy. You know, I’m actually thinking this could be seven figure deal, seven figures. That’s one with six zeros after. Hmm. At least, but it’s okay. I understand your trepidation. I wouldn’t wanna put you in any danger, so just pretend I didn’t say anything.

Well, let’s not be hasty. I, I do know how to keep myself safer on dangerous men. Are you saying you’re interested, interested? No, I, well, I mean, no. Still No. What good is all that money? If you’re too dead to spend it, find someone else to cover it, that’s fine. You want something bloody done. You have to just do it yourself, don’t you?

You’re gonna write it. You’re dare write. I’m gonna write it. And you know what? If something does come out of this, don’t you dare expect me to share the half with you, Mr. Leo Lion hearted, who’s obviously not. Lock the doors. Now you dunno who’s gonna come calling. Do you?

So this is what you meant by having a plan to finance our mutual ambitions. Exactly. If we keep it in the family, if you will, then we can get the money quickly. And that would save us time having to find a suitable mate for Dimitri and avoiding the risk that she’ll turn out to be a gold digger. Mm, yes.

Much better for me to marry someone’s steady and trustworthy like Auntie Christian. Oh, and look who’s talking Agent Graham. All right, you too. No sniping. Opportunity is knocking and we must answer.

Did you bring the SWAT team with you this time? Hey Eric? Yeah. Any news about your brother and did they find him? No. No, but you did just miss Detective Jada and her search warrant, complete waste of time, obviously, since they didn’t find anything. Right. You heard about Abe? Yeah. You don’t think, no. No. Oh, look, Colin is desperate.

He’s, he’s not a monster. He’s also not stupid enough to put a big target on his back like that. How did you hear about it? Is it, is it on the news? No, not yet. I was, I was at the hospital and Kayla told me, oh, what were you doing at the hospital? Nicole got her results from the DNA test, and I’m not there.

Am I? Oh, you don’t have to pretend you aren’t happy,

Bob. I can’t deny that’s what I was hoping to hear, but I know how much you wanna be a father, and I see you’re hurting. It’s not the right time’s. Probably for the best. Right.

What’s happening, what’s truly happening? We’re having a baby together. I know this sounds strange, but I, I felt it all along that this was meant to be.

So, um, do we share the news or do we keep this to ourselves? Um, I, I think. I think we should wait. Are you worried about your history? I don’t wanna be negative, and I also, I don’t wanna forget that there’s a chance, I mean, a really good chance that I can’t carry this baby to term.

I understand we’ve dealt with this disappointment twice before. But don’t let the past dictate the future. We have to remain positive and the first step is to get you the best care possible and there is no time to waste.

All right. No time to waste. Come and get it while it’s hot.

Egg sandwiches. Well, the one thing I really do know how to make well is a traditional Scottish breakfast, so I made a kinda like dinnertime version of it. So before you have drops cones, we have eggs with crowdy cheese and a weeper a ham. And you’ll be glad to know I spare you the haggas. So here’s some sausages instead.

Hmm. I don’t understand half of what you just said, but it sounds impressive. Well, please withhold judgment until after you’ve tried it, but go ahead.

Okay. There’s a lot of pressure with you watching me right now. Oh, sorry. How does this help? Ooh, okay.

I’m actually really good. Yeah? Mm-hmm. That’s really good. You got some skills, Mr. Cook. Well, I will say that it does pair rather nicely with the champagne. I am sure it does. You know the French stole the idea for champagne from Scott’s Champagne. There’s no way that that’s true. It’s absolutely true. No.

Scottish people invented all kinds of tasty things like hamburgers and pizza. Okay. You were literally just making things up right Now. Why would I do that? I am not a liar. Chloe Le. No Scottish people. Well, very famous inventors. We invented hoverboards. We invented zippers. We invented kissing. Kissing the Scott’s invented kissing.

Well, maybe we didn’t invent it, but we certainly perfected it.

Wow. Do I hear wedding bells? I have already picked out the most gorgeous mother of the groom dress. I gotta hand it to you, mom. You certainly thought this all through. But my answer is no. Kristen. Oh Shirley. You are smart enough to make the right choice and persuade your nephew that this is the best strategy that we have.

Ah, sorry, megs, I’m gonna side with your boy on this. I’m gearing up for a custody fight and showing up in court with my nephew on my arm is not gonna win me brownie points with the judge. Pathetic. A relaxed mother. Plenty of fish in the seat. Yes, and most of them are not suitable for you to marry. If we are not keeping it in the family.

We have to find someone very special for you, Dimitri. Woohoo. Anyone home? The door is open. I’m looking for Dimitri. Yvonne Ner.

I suppose it wouldn’t be so bad to get up close and personal with that. Uh, funny. You were homosexual instead of homicidal. Oh my god, what’s the other homicidal maniac?

Open up. It’s a belief. Yeah. Yeah, I know. What can I do for you, detective? I understand you had a run in with Colin Bedford. Uh, yes I did. It was very brief. Still a little chat, all small talk. I don’t know anything, I swear. Oh, I think you do. And you’re going to tell me everything about the encounter from start to finish.

Unless you’d like to spend the night in Joseph,

I’ll be putting out a statement about the Colin Bedford possible involvement in Abe carver’s disappearance in about an hour. But until then, if there’s any press inquiries, please refer them to the administrator’s office. Uh oh. Okay. That’s great. Thanks so much. Come in Dr. Johnson. Uh, a moment. Um, sure.

Nicole. Hi. How are you doing? She is doing wonderfully well. We both are. Now that we’ve gotten the news, we’re hoping for. Oh, well, I’m glad that’s the case. Please. Uh, have a seat. Go ahead. How can I help? Uh, well, uh, we were concerned about my medical history. You know, if I can carry the baby to term, and as you know, the scar tissue on my uterus has created issues.

Well, I know you’ve had your struggles. Perhaps there have been some advances in treatment since the last time she was pregnant. Anything that could help boost our chances. Well, I’m not a fertility doctor obviously, but I can certainly give you a referral. Excellent, excellent. And, uh, we will remain optimistic and hopeful.

As you should. Well Nicole, I need to go make a statement to the board about, uh, the Abe situation, but I wanna talk to you, um, and I will be getting you guys that specialist phone number. Okay? Thank you.

I’m in your corner.

See you later.

I promise you this, I will move heaven and earth to get us a successful outcome. You will bring this baby, our baby to turn.

I’ll pray for that. I love you, Nicole.

I,

I

speaking that I’m here with you and I just.

I look forward to our future together.

I love you. I love you.

Sorry, Eric. I just can’t risk losing. You call this baby ends up being yours. That test has to come back negative.

You.

Victor: Well, my goodness, if it isn’t jack and billy boy abbott.

Billy: I feel like I’m witnessing a nature documentary here with the two newmans out in the wild. Leader of the pack showing the young upstart how to take over the world.

Adam: You see, this is why I’d rather be at the office ’cause they let guys like him in here.

Jack: How are you two gentlemen doing this glorious morning?

Adam: Well, jack, you are in a good mood given the circumstances.

Jack: Oh, circumstances be damned. Everything’s coming up roses for me. Personal life and professional.

Victor: Ain’t that something? You know, I think you’ve been around your own perfume too much. You seem delirious.

Jack: Oh, how so?

Victor: You let my son go and you put billy boy abbott into his position. And I understand that you are engaged to of all people, diane jenkins.

Jack: I am sorry, victor. Nothing you say can possibly spoil my mood this morning.

Victor: Mm-hmm.

[ Nate sighs ]

Audra: Nate. Uh, come join me. Well, we can have an impromptu strategy session. Or we can go somewhere else, uh, more private if you want.

Nate: Audra, I’m sorry, but, um, I have to get–

Victoria: Oh, hey.

Audra: Oh, uh, I didn’t know you two decided to meet. Anything I can do to help?

Victoria: Uh, thanks, but no. Nate and I, we have a few things that we need to hash out. You know, I just remembered, I left a couple of those files up in the newman executive suite.

Audra: Oh, uh, newman keeps a suite here?

Victoria: Yeah, we have for years.

Nate: Well, um, we might as well just discuss it up there then? I’ll loop you in later if necessary.

Tucker: Don’t you just hate when that happens? You work so hard and then you get dismissed because you just don’t rank high enough for one of those kinds of intimate one-on-one meetings.

Sharon: You would think that you brilliant college kids could come up with a better name for your dorm cat than borgnine. Don’t you think?

[ Faith laughs ]

Faith: But when you see him, he’s totally a borgnine. Definitely not a fluffy or a felix. Where is borgy anyway? He wasn’t upstairs. I thought he was down here.

Sharon: Oh. It’s just an alert about a sale at fenmore’S. It’s nothing about cameron.

Faith: Good. Maybe that jerk finished getting his kicks out of playing his sick little mind games and left.

Sharon: I hope so. But, you know, we need to stay on alert just in case he is still around.

Faith: I was thinking about going out for a little bit. That’s okay, right?

Sharon: Um, I don’t know if that’s such a good idea right now.

Faith: I’m just going to the tack house to see the baby. I– I promise I won’t go off the ranch property.

Sharon: Okay. That should be safe, but stay close and be careful.

Faith: I will.

[ Both screaming ]

Sharon: Faith, what happened? Are you all right?

Faith: Borgnine. He’s not breathing. I think he’s dead.

[ Sharon gasps ]

Sharon: Oh, my god. Faith, get in the house now. All right. I’m gonna call chance. You call your dad now. Now.

Summer: Morning.

[ Kyle sighs ] Did you get some sleep?

Kyle: How could I? Did you?

Summer: Is anyone else here?

Kyle: I sent harrison out with the nanny. Everyone else has left for the day.

Summer: So early.

Kyle: Yeah. Maybe now, you’ll finally come clean and tell me the truth.

Keep it quilted means

you keep it the best.

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…

Summer: You already know the truth. I mean, as crazy as it is, you know everything that’s important.

Kyle: Do I? Do I know the whole truth really?

Summer: Kyle, my mom is alive. Don’t you see how incredible that is? And your mom is off the hook.

Kyle: You never answered my question.

Summer: What question?

Kyle: Last night, I asked you and I wanna know, how long have you known phyllis was alive?

Summer: You know how long I’ve known. You’re the one that told me that daniel saw her. I mean, what– what difference does it make anyway?

Kyle: It makes a big difference and you know it. So just tell me, tell me, when was the first time you saw phyllis?

Summer: Yesterday. Just like you. And, uh, no, I didn’t call you the second I got in there. And maybe– maybe that was a mistake, but I was so overwhelmed seeing my mom and I wasn’t hiding the truth from you.

Kyle: No, you didn’t seem that overwhelmed when I got there.

Summer: That’s because I had been in the room for a second at that point. I had a little bit of time to get used to seeing my mom.

[ Kyle sighs ]

Kyle: You didn’t have that much time. I was following you, summer. I wasn’t that far behind you. I know you didn’t have enough time to react to phyllis being alive. A few minutes at most, that is not enough time to get used to the fact that your mother, who you believed was dead was standing there alive and well in front of you. So just tell me.

Summer: I’ve told you!

Kyle: You have known a lot longer, haven’t you?

Summer: Kyle, come on.

Kyle: Why can’t you just be honest with me?

Summer: I don’t even know why you would think that. I don’T.

Kyle: Okay, I had all night to think back on everything has happened. So many interactions. Little things that just didn’t make sense at the time.

Summer: What are you talking about?

Kyle: The arguments between you and your brother, phrases you used in fights, little glances. Even last night when phyllis said she hid out nearby so she could be close to her kids. That was not the first time she reached out to you.

Summer: I don’t know why she didn’T.

Kyle: Summer, that could not have been the first time you saw your mother. What about yesterday when I found you at the club after you said you were going to work?

Summer: Wait, is that why you started following me around like a criminal?

Kyle: No, that’s not the reason I was following you, but I’m glad I did. All of the times that you ran off without an explanation and lame ones at best, you were going to see phyllis, weren’t you? When were you gonna tell me what you’ve been hiding?

Victor: Jack, I really hope that just because diane is not declared a murderer doesn’t mean that she won’t send your life down to rack and ruin.

Jack: Oh, victor, I am far too happy with diane’s freedom and jabot’s latest profit projections to let you get to me today.

Victor: Well, isn’t that nice?

Billy: And you know me, I’m not one to pat myself on the back, but I will take some credit for the profit margins off the men’s product line. You know the one that you dropped the ball on, adam?

[ Adam laughs ]

Adam: You must be very proud. Grooming products for men. It’s like you’re starting a revolution, billy.

Jack: We are shooting for the moon these days, adam. With billy by my side and diane free and happy, nothing’s stopping us.

Victor: Do me a favor, jack and just keep diane jenkins grubby hands away from my wife’s jewelry. That would be a move in the right direction.

Billy: On that note?

Jack: Yeah.

Adam: Enjoy your breakfast.

Billy: Thank you.

Chance: Okay. You two are good to relax now. I got an officer taking your cat in for examination. Two others searching the property. I would like to ask you a couple questions.

[ Door clicks open ]

Nick: You guys okay?

Faith: I’m fine. Just a little shaken up, that’s all.

Sharon: Yeah, me too, but we’re gonna be fine, okay? We’ll be all right.

Nick: What happened?

Sharon: Faith was on her way to the tack house when she found the cat that she brought home from college just laying on the front doorstep, dead.

Faith: Poor borgnine.

Chance: Do you know how old the cat was or if he had any signs of illness?

Faith: I don’t know his exact age, but he was in good health. I took him to the vet right before I left for break. He had all his shots and a full exam.

Chance: Okay. Well, we’re gonna get our forensics team to examine him, see if we can find out exactly what happened, okay?

Nick: That’s good. But I’m pretty sure I know what those results are gonna say.

Sharon: So do I. There’s no doubt in my mind about what happened, nick. This was cameron’s doing.

Nick: That bastard could still be on the ground somewhere.

Chance: We got that covered. Don’t worry about it.

Nick: I’m gonna go find him myself.

Chance: There’s no need. I got a full team searching the property. Let the professionals handle it.

Nick: Nobody knows this property better than me. I know where to look.

Chance: Nick. Nick!

Today, my friend you did it, you did it, you did it…

Billy: So, what’s up?

Jack: You sound suspicious.

Billy: Well, something’s going on. I can tell by the way you were grandstanding with victor. Not everything is perfect right now, is it?

Jack: We have had our share of triumphs lately, but there has been a recent very troubling development.

Billy: What is that?

Jack: I assume you haven’t spoken with ashley recently?

Billy: No, not lately. Why?

Jack: She made quite an announcement last night at the house.

Billy: Good news? Bad news?

Jack: She and tucker are planning on getting married as soon as possible.

Audra: Just so you know, tucker, I happen to have had private meetings with nate up in my own suite.

Tucker: Hmm. But not the same caliber of meeting that victoria’s getting right about now.

Audra: Our meetings are the kind that I prefer. Strictly business.

Tucker: Is your name audra charles?

Audra: Yes, tucker.

Tucker: ‘Cause I don’t remember any of our meetings being strictly business.

Audra: That was the past.

Tucker: Ah!

Audra: Mm-hmm. I am focused on the bigger prize now. The top spot at newman media.

Tucker: Yeah, but nate. Hmm. Nate. He gets under your skin, don’t he? And it’s just killing you right now how close he’s getting to victoria.

[ Audra sighs ]

Nate: Now, where did you say you put those files?

Victoria: I don’t know. Maybe they’re in the bed under the sheets. Did you look there?

Nate: No, but that looks like a much more comfortable place for files than that hard desk in your office.

Victoria: I think that work can wait. I mean, newman media’s bottom line is doing great these days.

[ Laughs ] Our campaigns are successful. Our bottom line is up. I think that we deserve to take some time off. Celebrate all of our hard work.

Nate: I agree.

Victoria: Yeah.

Nate: Our ratings are up too. Our audiences across all platforms has almost doubled.

Victoria: Really? Tell me more.

Nate: Our demographics are right on target.

Victoria: Right? What does that do to our bottom line?

Nate: The second quarter projections will outperform.

Victoria: Mm-hmm. Year to date or rolling 12 months?

Nate: Uh, it will exceed every quarter in the last three fiscal.

Victoria: Oh, god. Speaking of outperforming.

Adam: Well, leaving jabot was the right move.

Victor: Jack abbott is so full of hot air.

Adam: Yeah, you were right about that all along. There was no way that I was gonna fit in there. God. All those abbotts.

Victor: Very glad you are ready to move on, son.

Adam: Mm-hmm.

Victor: Now, let’s talk about mccall. I have some– some ideas.

Adam: Okay. Wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait. Hold on. Before you go any further, I’m already in the process of making some major moves in the company. I’m planning on shaking up a few things around there.

Kyle: I know you, summer. I can tell you are hiding something from me. I hate to ask you this, but can I see your phone?

Summer: Wait. Are you serious? Kyle, there’s nothing on my phone.

Kyle: Then, you will prove me wrong and I will feel horrible about it. And if that happens, I will apologize profusely. What are these?

Summer: What?

Kyle: All of these texts from a number that’s not in your contacts. “Let’s meet, please.” “Where are you?”

Summer: I– I don’t know. I don’t know that number.

Kyle: “We need to talk.” “Bring bro for fam peace.” All of these messages from the same number. And you replied. These were from phyllis, weren’t they? But it– it sounds like she hadn’t seen daniel. I– how could that be? He told us he’d seen her, that’s how he knew for sure she was alive.

Summer: Kyle, can we please drop this?

Kyle: No, daniel wasn’t the first one she reached out to. He wasn’t the first one who saw her alive. It was you. You were the one she reached out to from the beginning, but– but why? Why? Or because you were the one she knew would lie for her.

Summer: Yeah. [ Sniffling ] She knew that I would help her. That to protect her I would look you in your eyes and lie to your face.

[ Sobbing ] If your moderate to severe crohn’s disease

Kyle: What the hell, summer? You lied about something that directly affected all of our lives for months. How could you do that?

Summer: But kyle, it’s over. It’s finally over. I’m relieved that this secret is out. I– I hated having to lie to you.

Kyle: No, no, no, no. You didn’t have to lie.

Summer: You’re right. But kyle, I was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Yes, I am furious at my mom for what she did and the position that she put me in, but I was just so happy that she was even alive.

Kyle: Come on.

Summer: I– I was desperate to keep her out of jail.

Kyle: No. So, wait. Daniel was covering for you all this time? Why? What would make him do that? Why would it have been so bad if you were the one who shared your mother’s secret?

Summer: I don’t know. He just didn’t want me to have to deal with the questions or accusations, I guess.

Kyle: No, he was protecting you. If you saw phyllis first, that means you saw her when my mother was in jail. You could have cleared my mother’s name and set her free. You could have gotten her out of that god awful place, but instead, you decide to sit back and do nothing!

Billy: We gotta stop this. You know that, right? I mean, there’s no way that we can let ashley marry that conman.

Jack: Ashley marrying tucker mccall would be a colossal mistake, but I don’t know how we’re gonna stop it.

Billy: I don’t know either. But we gotta do something. I mean, we can’t just sit here and let our sister put her faith in that scam artist.

Jack: I’d like to think ashley would realize that herself.

Billy: You know, I was gonna give him the benefit of the doubt until all of this coup stuff started to happen. Because I guarantee you, he is the one driving this.

Jack: Well, I’m not gonna be the one to talk her out of it. She doesn’t listen to me. Listen, I have tried to reason with her for months to no avail.

Billy: How does she not learn her lesson?

Jack: You know, when they first mentioned this engagement, I thought it was just a jab at diane after she’d gotten her freedom, but no, I’m starting to think this wedding is imminent.

Billy: Not if I have anything to say about it.

Jack: Ashley keeps saying that her relationship with tucker is just like my relationship with diane. It is nothing like it. They have nothing in common.

Billy: No, but, you know, let’s just be honest, right? They both have a scandalous past of bad behavior.

Jack: Hold on. She caught him red-handed with jabot financial documents in his hotel suite. She knew he was coming after the family company. She alerted us so we could stop him. Now, we’re supposed to just forget that?

Billy: No. No, ashley’s too smart for that. I don’t think any of this is forgotten.

Jack: What does that mean?

Billy: I think she has something up her sleeve with this marriage thing. It’s too calculated. And I don’t know if tucker’s involved or not, but I guarantee you it has something to do with jabot.

Adam: So, I’ve been, uh, doing my research and mccall desperately needs to be streamlined. It’s crucial that we cut the fat and we sell it off.

Victor: Like what?

Adam: The music department. It’s the company’s least profitable sector and it’s weighing the company down. There’s absolutely no upside.

Victor: Do you realize that music is the very foundation of what tucker built? It’s it cornerstone.

Adam: It was. But going forward, I’ll be focused on newer media and the streaming divisions.

Victor: You realize that a move like that will put you in direct competition with newman media?

Adam: Exactly.

[ Door clicks open ]

Sharon: Oh, good. You’re back.

Nick: There’s no sight of him anywhere. Ranch security and gcpd are combing the property.

Sharon: I think I was more worried that you would find him.

Nick: I’m sure he is long gone. He’d be a fool to stick around and risk getting caught.

Chance: If he was even here. We don’t even know how the cat died yet.

Faith: I’m gonna head upstairs and start calling my friends to break the sad news. They trusted me with borgnine.

Sharon: That’s a very good idea. I’m gonna come up and check on you soon. Look, I know you have your doubts. And as a detective, you don’t wanna jump to conclusions, I get that, but I am more than certain that this was cameron’s doing. I feel it in my gut. Just like the packages he sent me at crimson lights, and right here, right out there on this doorstep. These are messages for me from a madman.

Chance: If they are messages, what do they mean?

Sharon: They’re warnings of what’s to come. (Chef vo) fancy feast.

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue. When it comes to your hair, ingredients matter.

Victor: Son, I gave you mccall to bring you back into our family. Not to use it as a weapon against your sister.

Adam: Okay, you’re assuming the worst of my intentions. That’s not what I’m doing. This, it’s simply good business.

Victor: It isn’T. Not when your last name is newman. You’re cutting off your nose to spite your face, son.

Adam: I don’t have any stake in newman enterprises. I accepted your offer to run mccall. That’s where my focus is. That’s my only concern and priority right now.

Victor: Your priority should be your family above all else.

Adam: Can I assume that you’re gonna have this conversation with victoria when she comes after me?

Victor: Let me warn you, going after newman media is a declaration of war and I will not have it.

Adam: Dad, I am not out to obliterate newman media. I wanna take it over. It was mine to begin with. Do you remember? Do you remember what we created before victoria snatched it away from me? All I wanna do is bring it back to where it started. You see, it’s about family.

Nate: That’s nice.

Victoria: So good.

Nate: Yeah, I like it. You really liked those second quarter numbers, didn’t you?

[ Victoria laughs ]

Victoria: I know that it’s weird, but I just get turned on mixing business and pleasure. That’s just so satisfying on so many different levels.

Nate: I agree. I’m glad you’re satisfied.

Victoria: Well, I admire your determination, and I really love this little distraction, but you know we have work to do.

Nate: Okay. Good. You know, I was looking at newman’s website for, uh, the real estate development. I had an idea.

Victoria: Please tell me. I’m all ears.

Nate: What if my tech team updated the site with virtual tours of the properties currently under construction? It would show off our outstanding work in various stages of production while highlighting our high profile client list. It could make for a great marketing tool. Don’t you think?

[ Victoria chuckles ]

Victoria: I love that you took the initiative to think of something like this. But I mean, I like it. I do, I’m gonna run it past my mother and nick, and see if they’re interested in investing in the concept.

Nate: YeaH. [ Clears throat ]

Victoria: What’s wrong? You’re not worried about my brother, are you?

Nate: I just hope he doesn’t get the wrong idea about my suggestion. I’d hate for him to claim that I’m overstepping again and working on some power play out of my purview.

Victoria: You don’t have to worry about nicholas. I’ll handle my brother.

Audra: Nate and victoria’s growing relationship doesn’t bother me a bit. The closer they get, the better it is for my game plan.

Tucker: Okay. If that’s the truth, then I admire your resolve. But seriously, I also know you. And I know that behind all the manipulations and schemes, you got a big heart.

Audra: Well, um, even if I did have lingering feelings for nate, it’s not like I could do anything about them. Interfering with his budding romance with our boss would ruin everything that I’ve been working so hard for.

Tucker: Oh, that’s a shame.

Audra: Yeah. I guess my only choice is to keep my distance.

Tucker: May I offer you some sage advice?

Audra: That’ll be a hard pass. I don’t put too much credence into your advice these days.

Tucker: Oh. It’s been working out well for me. I walked away from mccall to find myself not only engaged to the woman of my dreams, but, uh… with this brand new golden opportunity staring me in the face.

Summer: Kyle, I promise you I– I wasn’t gonna let diane rot in jail, but by the time I even had a chance to process the fact that my mom was alive, she was already out on bail.

Kyle: No, on house arrest, awaiting trial for murder. And you justified staying quiet how? In the minds of the people of this town, my mother was already tried and convicted. Still today, people believe she is guilty.

Summer: She’s out now. The charges have been dropped.

Kyle: No, no, no, no. You don’t get to think that absolves you from all the pain and the trauma she went through. You didn’t just sit back and stay quiet. You were actually upset with daniel for coming forward, for doing the right thing.

Summer: No.

Kyle: That’s what you were fighting about, wasn’t it?

Summer: No! We just disagreed on how to keep our mom out of jail.

Kyle: Exactly. You wanted to keep it a secret and daniel knew that wasn’t right. And my god, my mother would still be on trial for murder if it wasn’t for daniel!

[ Exhales in frustration ] When were you gonna come forward, summer? After she was convicted and sent off to prison?

Summer: No. I never would’ve let it get that far. I promise you that. I just needed time to figure out a way to protect my mom.

Kyle: This doesn’t come down to time. This comes down to one thing and there is no other way to spin it. You sacrificed my mother to protect yours. If you think you, a child in your care,

Jack: Oh, I confronted ashley about her potential coup plot and put her on notice.

Billy: Yeah? You think that’s gonna stop her? ‘Cause I guarantee you it’s not gonna stop tucker and he’s the driving force behind this.

Jack: She claims tucker was no part of any efforts on her part to reach out to individual board members.

Billy: I don’t care what she claims. Tucker is the one that put the seed in her head. I guarantee it.

Jack: I just like to think that the sister we love and grew up with would not allow herself to be manipulated by this guy again.

Billy: Even if she claims she’s trying to save jabot from a non-existent threat from diane–

Jack: At least, she would ask for a prenup. But to fall into his web of lies and make herself vulnerable and her shares in the company vulnerable makes no sense.

Billy: You know, tucker is a free agent right now. And he’s got money to burn after selling mccall. And jabot looks pretty tempting to a shark like him. Puts him in striking distance of a board seat.

Jack: Whoa! Whoa! Don’t even put that out there.

Billy: Listen, all I’m saying is that ashley could make a compelling argument for expanding the board, which we have talked about, but we’ve always said it has to be a family member. If our sister marries him… it makes him a family member.

Audra: How did you manage to achieve all of that? Snagging ashley, and this mysterious golden opportunity all at once?

Tucker: I just… opened my mind, you see. And I keep it open. Open to each and every possibility. And I’m willing to risk everything because everything you see is an illusion. And with that bit of wisdom, I must bid you good day.

Audra: Uh, was– was that wisdom or just a bunch of nonsense?

Tucker: Hmm. Only when you are able to discern the difference between the two, grasshopper, will you be halfway to enlightenment.

Audra: Yeah. Random nonsense.

Tucker: Namaste, baby.

[ Audra chuckles ]

[ Footsteps departing ]

Summer: Kyle, you gotta believe me, I was trying to figure out a way to keep both of our moms out of prison. I– I only kept quiet to buy time to bring my mom home safely. That’s it.

Kyle: I’m sorry, summer. I can’t accept your justifications. You were only thinking about you and your mother. You completely disregarded how your actions would affect my family, our family.

Summer: No, I was– I was trying to do what was right for everyone.

Kyle: No, no, no. Stop, stop, stop. You have to own up to your actions here. You weren’t just sitting back and watching my mother suffer. You watched me suffer. I was worried as hell about you. I was worried how this would affect our marriage. How it would affect our harrison. I thought you were pushing me away because of something I had done. That I somehow couldn’t be the husband you needed.

Summer: But that wasn’t it at all.

Kyle: No, what was I supposed to think? You kept pushing me away. You kept me at a distance for a reason. One reason. To hide your damn lies.

Chance: Sharon, we don’t know for sure if cameron is behind any of this yet.

Sharon: I’m telling you that I am sure. Cameron wants me to know that I cannot hide from his abuse. That I’m not even safe in my own home with armed security guards. Even victor’s extra security can’t keep me safe. This man is coming for me. I can feel it!

Chance: We need proof. Why isn’t he showing up on any of the security footage?

Nick: It’s probably because he was disguised as a newman guard.

Chance: What?

Nick: One of my dad’s security team was found drugged and tied up and thrown into a closet last night at newman towers and his uniform was missing.

Chance: Why am I just now hearing about this? Did they report it?

Nick: Probably not. Chance, they like to keep things like this in house.

Chance: All right. That’s great, nick, I’m trying to help you and you’re withholding information like that from me.

Nick: Well, I’m telling you now.

Sharon: Isn’t that more proof that cameron is behind this?

Chance: Yes, it could be, but I cannot investigate something that has not been reported, okay? So, is there anything else you aren’t telling me?

Sharon: Look, I understand as a detective, you need to look at things from all angles, but you do not know cameron like we do. You were not there to hear him promise that we would soon find out why he came back here and what he’s after. He’s definitely after revenge. And that poor animal was just his latest victim in his sick and dangerous games.

[ Phone chimes ]

Chance: One second.

Sharon: What is it?

Nick: Did they find him?

Chance: [ Sighs ] No. But the cat was definitely poisoned.

[ Nick sighs ] Hey! It’s your dry skin.

Audra: That tucker mccall, he’s always intruding where he’s not invited.

Victor: Hmm.

Audra: You know, he never misses an opportunity to just drop in and play his little mind games.

Victor: Mm-hmm. But you’re still working together.

Audra: Oh, no. That’s long behind us.

Victor: Ah.

Audra: Yeah.

Victor: Well, he’s of no concern to me, but let me ask you something. How do you like working at newman media? I mean, how do you like working with nate?

Audra: Uh, nate? Nate is amazing.

Victor: Really?

Audra: Mm-hmm, you know, I am learning so much from his instinctive business savvy.

Victor: Instinctive business savvy, how’s that?

Audra: Well, he just seems to know the right moves to make and questions to ask when needed, yeah.

Victor: All right. All signs of a good leader.

Audra: Oh, yes, yes. We all take our cues from him, because his business style… inspires us all.

Victor: Hmm.

Jack: I don’t care if it’s tucker’s idea or ashley’S. I don’t like the sound of any of this.

Billy: Even if ashley is in charge of this coup, she is crazy to depend on tucker. I don’t trust him. I don’t trust him as far as I can throw him and I’d like to throw him through that brick wall.

Jack: Yeah. You and me both.

Billy: I’ll do whatever it takes. I will not let him hurt our sister, even if I have to cut them off at the knees to stop this, I will do whatever it takes to protect jabot.

Summer: Kyle, you’ve gotta forgive me, okay? You’ve gotta forgive me. I will make it up to you if you just let me.

Kyle: I– I just don’t see how that can happen, summer. The more I think about it, the worse it gets. It killed me to watch you and what I thought was inconsolable grief.

Summer: I was– I was devastated.

Kyle: Yeah, but after you found out the truth? How long until you stopped grieving and started putting on the act of the grieving daughter? It is diabolical. I thought I was watching you suffer, but it was all a lie.

Summer: I was suffering lying to you, kyle. It was torture for me.

Kyle: No, and you were so damn good at it. You lied repeatedly to my face! I’m done, I can’t take any more of this.

Summer: Kyle, wait! Look– kyle, I need to know what you’re gonna do, I– please, please don’t– don’t tell anybody where my mom is.

Kyle: My god, you are still putting her first. Expecting me to cover for her after everything that’s happened? I don’t know what’s real with you anymore.

Summer: No, kyle, wait! Kyle!

[ Door shuts closed ]

[ Exhales in frustration ]

Nick: Of course, the cat was poisoned. What more proof do you need? You gotta put him in cuffs.

Chance: There’s still no evidence that proves cameron did any of this. And nick, the cat was outside. This is a ranch. There’s a thousand things out there that could’ve made him sick.

Sharon: This has cameron kirsten’s name all over it.

Chance: I get it. And I am sorry, but this is the way that I have to handle it. Just know I will see this through. You have my word. Now, I’m gonna go to newman tower, and see what I can find out about this stolen uniform. Stay close to home. Keep the doors locked. Call me if you need anything.

Sharon: Okay.

[ Door clicks open ]

Nick: This is so frustrating. I wish there was something more we could do.

Sharon: I can’t believe this is happening, nick. Why is he doing this to me?

Nick: Sharon, you are safe here, okay? And so is faith.

Sharon: You know, there was something that chance said. The cat, he wasn’t outside. Faith didn’t let him out. I didn’t let him out. He was here. He was inside the whole time.

Nick: You think he was inside your house?

Sharon: He had to have been. Cameron was here. He was inside the house. How else could he have poisoned the cat?

Nick: That’s it. I’ve had it. I’m not waiting around anymore. I’m gonna find cameron and put an end to this for good.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Siren wailing ] Esme: Come in. Drew, hey. Hey, hey. I heard the dna test came back, so come on. Well, it’s official. I’m trina’s father. What?!

[ Chuckles ] Congratulations, man. Thank you. Wow, that is the best thing in the whole world. How do you feel? Man, I —

[ Exhales deeply ] She’s a gem. I hit the jackpot, right? Yeah. I got goose bumps. Look at that. I do. I do. I mean, trina’s just such an amazing young woman. Yeah, you know… I do have my regrets about all the time we had apart. Well… but, hey, I’m looking forward to future. That is the curtis that I know right there. Are you — is that why you’re here right now? Am I barging in on some daughter time right — no, no, trina’s staying with josslyn at carly’S. Okay. Okay. So she’s not ready to come back home yet? No, but I am. I moved my things in.

Really? Why you sound so surprised? Well — well, because last time we talked, you said — you said that you were kind of conflicted about your feelings. So does that mean you got everything figured out? I’m zeke. Jordan. But like I said — no, no, no. I heard you loud and clear. I’m just gonna get my drink, and I’ll go.

If that’s still what you want. A tequila soda and a lime. You’re awfully sure of yourself, aren’t you? I’ve always had my way with people. Only child? Uh, no, I have a sister. Why? Hmm. Well, it’s been my experience that many overconfident people have grown up as the sole focus of their parents. Hmm. Well, my confidence and i will leave you alone. Enjoy your drink.

[ Monitors beeping ]

[ Door opens ] Good evening, willow. How are you holding up? I just started my shift, but I wanted to check in on my very favorite patient. You doing okay? Yes, clara, I… I don’t think I can be anything other than absolutely grateful. Grateful is good, but a bone marrow transplant is a very difficult procedure. It’s okay to say you’re in pain.

[ Sighs ] Okay, then, uh… it hurts way more than I expected. I just can’t find a comfortable position to sit in. Well, if it’s any comfort, that’s a common reaction.

[ Exhales deeply ] Now, we just have to find some ways to distract you.

[ Chuckles weakly ] Would you like it if I had your mom come in? My mom? Yes. She’s been camped out here 24/7, barely left your side. I’m sure she would love to see you, if you’re up to it. Laura: Hey. Hey. Got a minute? Of course. What’s up? I need to talk to you about something. As opposed to in about 30 minutes, when I get home from work? Yeah. Yeah, it’s that important. Okay. What is it? Oh, it’s — it’s that important.

[ Chuckles ] I’ve made a decision about something. Um, I know you’re gonna try to talk me out of it, but I’m not gonna change my mind. Okay. Hit me. I’m going to look for nikolas. Or more specifically, I am going to russia to look for nikolas.


Can’t believe chase has been gone for so long. And you know what? He isn’t your waiter. We can’t talk around him. Then why not wait till we’re home? I was going to pull you aside tonight, but then I saw you lounging here by the pool, getting absolutely nothing constructive done. And you haven’t brought me anything yet on the deceptor patent. I’m sorry. Don’t apologize. Don’t make excuses. Fine. Oh, is it chase? Is what chase? Is he too much of a distraction? Because I can tell him that it was me who made the phone call to get him reinstated. Shh! Keep your voice down, okay? Yes, you are the one who called the ccrb to have them look at his case, but chase got himself reinstated. He’s not gonna like it either way. And by the way, brook lynn, really, a policeman? He’s a detective. Uh-huh. Those law-and-order types are so hung up on the rules. Yeah, imagine that. You just need to do your job, okay? And do it fast. I’m just — I’m worried. About what? You. Whatever you have planned. Look, maxie, sasha, and lucy are my friends, and I’m not gonna do anything to hurt them. Hey. Hey, hey, hey. Are you reading the report that I just finished reading? Uh, with the initial numbers for the sales of the deceptor? It almost seems too good to be true. Oh! Too good to be true? Oh, pooh. Come on. That deceptor is flying off the shelves because it’s a fantastic product, and we marketed it, we promoted the heck out of it, and so we deserve to celebrate. What, without brook lynn and sasha? Yeah, just us for now, but then we can celebrate again tomorrow. Maybe mimosas in the morning and champagne for sunset. And, you know, taking that product, the phenomenon that it is, back to home & hearth, that was such a genius idea. Whose idea was it? Oh, that’s right. It was mine.

[ Cork pops ] Ahh!

[ Both laughing ] So, what brings you in today? Um, I have a really sore throat, and my whole body aches, and so I just wanted to make sure that it’s not strep, both for my baby’s sake and so that I don’t spread it at work. Work, huh? Yeah. I, um, got a job at the invader. At least, I think I still have a job. Things didn’t exactly go very well my first day.

[ Chuckles ] And spreading an infection to the whole staff of the paper might be the last straw? Exactly. Okay, um… let’s take a look at you, then. Already working, huh?

[ Thermometer beeps ] Uh, yeah. I wish I didn’t have to. I hate the idea of leaving ace. Well, do you? I mean, do you have to work? I mean, ace is a cassadine. Well, I mean, ace is my son, and I want to make sure that spencer can’t take him away from me by claiming I’m unfit or lacking the resources to raise him. Well, that’s exactly my point. I mean, you do have resources. In the eyes of the law, anyway. W-what do you mean? I can’t give up. I need to at least try to work things out with my wife. I think moving back in, that’s a great first step. Baby step. I’m still in the guest room. Okay. Okay, nothing wrong with taking things slow. Yeah. It just sounds so weird, taking things slow with my wife. I think it sounds smart, man. I’m happy for you. Yeah, well, I just wish everybody felt that way. Oh. Jordan? Yeah. Portia had told her that I moved back home before I got to break the news to her. Aw, really? Yeah. Man, I sure hated for her to find out that way. Yeah, I know you did. That’s not good. I’m sorry, man. So jordan was really upset?

[ Sighs ] She accused me of using her to sort out my feelings. I gotta be honest, I can’t even be mad at her, because that’s valid. Yeah, but not what happened? Not at all, man. I would never intentionally hurt jordan like that. Sometimes, in order to do what’s right, you gotta — you gotta hurt the people that you love. Honey, are you okay? Did I say something to upset you? No. No, I-I — I-I just, um… I have been working double shifts. Whether I come in at dawn or midnight, your mom is always here looking after you. Really? Is that so hard to believe? Do you two not get along?

[ Chuckles weakly ] The thing is…

[ Grunts ] Last year, I found out that the woman who raised me my entire life, the woman I called “mom,” turned out she wasn’t my biological mother after all. Oh, honey, I’m so sorry. That must have come as quite a shock. It did. The woman who I thought was my mom, harmony, I think it’s safe to say that she was a very damaged human being, lost and looking for guidance. She was easily manipulated, easily fell prey to the wrong people. She wasn’t always the protector a good mom should be. I think she tried, but, still, somehow… she was your mom and you loved her. Yeah, I did, even though she let me down over and over again, and even after I found out she wasn’t really my mom. It’s crazy. I — I… my first instinct is to always defend her. Nikolas has been missing for months. Why the sudden push to try and find him now? I think something is wrong, and I think he may need my help. And I found out that there’s a property that the cassadines own in chechnya. He may very well be there. Well, there may be a cassadine property in russia, but that doesn’t mean nikolas is living there.

[ Chuckles ] I know that. I do. It’s just that it’s the only lead that I’ve got. I just don’t believe that my son would completely abandon both of his sons. I — I think that either he is being held against his will or that maybe he’s fallen into some kind of a deep depression. Either way, he needs help. I’m his mother. I’m gonna help him. Yes, you are, and you should.


Okay, to… worldwide domination. Ooh, I like that. Okay, and cruelty-free cosmetics. Oh, I like that, too. Okay. To the deceptor.

[ Glasses clink ]

[ Both laugh ] Really? I mean, that’s it? You’re not gonna fight me on this? You’re not gonna tell me how dangerous chechnya is? You already know how dangerous it is, and I know that once you’ve made up your mind, there’s no point in trying to talk you out of it. Thank you for understanding. I understand all too well. That’s why I’m going with you. Rumor has it that the feds are gonna be offering carly a deal if she gives them sonny. But they haven’t approached her yet? No, it doesn’t even matter. Anybody that knows carly knows that she would never do that to sonny anyway. I mean, they’ve — they’ve been through a lot together, but when it comes to protecting their family, nothing trumps that. So, if giving up sonny is not an option, what is? They will likely pit carly and me against each other. No prison time if you testify against carly, and vice versa. Damn. Only one of you can make that deal. And I think carly might be considering it. Oh, thank you. I’m sorry if I was rude. No, don’t apologize. I appreciate a woman who’s direct. Most men say that, and then… then what? Someone do you wrong? My mood is my own fault. I did something stupid. That doesn’t sound like you. You don’t even know me. Convince me I’m wrong. I kissed my ex. Ah. And then he promptly went back to his new wife. Ooh. Yeah, so…

[ Laughs ] Like I said, stupid. But you know what? What? I told myself I wouldn’t waste another minute, so — and I know you just got one, but… can I buy you a drink? I’m a mom. Three blessings. And on our best days, we can do spectacular things — get everyone fed, off to school, hold down a job, stop the pain from hurting. But we’re only human.

[ Sighs ] And on our best days, we just do what we can. But when we have those rough days, those days when that little voice is screaming in our heads to just run away, we have to forgive ourselves for not being perfect and just know that’s what we can do as moms. I don’t know this harmony, but I can tell that you still love her.

[ Chuckles ] Now, maybe she didn’t have great parents. Maybe when she got you, she thought she’d improve on what she was taught as a little girl. That’s the best we can do as moms — strive to do better for our little ones, not repeat our mother’s mistakes, because we don’t want to make those same mistakes again. So we just strive to do our best so that we can leave things better for the next generation of moms.


why is that? I knew this was a solid concept, but I never dreamed deception would be so successful. Maxie jones, you need to dream bigger. And if you don’t mind me saying so, you really do need a bigger house. What? Come on, we gotta move you on up. Okay, okay, I know. I’m living with three kids in a two-bedroom apartment. That’s insane. But it takes time to find a new place to live, time that I do not have. Okay, that’s why they made computers, though. You know, I don’t do much realtor work these days, not with all this, but I do have access to the fabulous real-estate website still. Why don’t we take a deep dive and scoop you up a dream house?

[ Both laugh ] Okay. You’re acting like I want you to murder someone. As if that’s out of the realm of possibility. Brook lynn, this is just business. Well, maxie, sasha, and lucy are great bosses, and deception’s doing really well. Well, all that’s gonna change, and soon. What just happened? I thought you might need some water. Willow: Thank you. I don’t mean to be nosy… but I have to assume that the woman who’s been here every day looking after you, making sure you get your pain meds the minute they’re due to be given, is your biological mom. How did you find her? Oh. No. [ Laughs ] She’s not my mom. She’s my mother-in-law. Really? As devoted as she is, I could have sworn she was your mom. Well, that’s carly, and I love her dearly. And she has a really big heart. Well, good for you. I never got along with my mother-in-law. That’s too bad. I’m so thankful to have carly in my life. Well, I’m sure she’s thankful to have you in her life. It’s just a shame that your biological mom died without you getting to know her. My biological mom is alive and living right here in port charles, but I want nothing to do with her. Well, drew, I get that carly wants to put the kids first, but you’re my guy. I know you, and I know you feel the same way. Absolutely. Are you kidding me? I’ve missed out on so much of scout’s life already. The last thing — the last thing — I want to do is miss out on more. Is there some scenario where you and carly could beat the charges together? Yeah, well, I’m working on it. Nothing concrete yet. Alright, well, just know that my offer to help still stands. I know that, and I appreciate it. But it does seem so extreme. What does? Well, the merger between aurora and elq never happened, so nobody made any money. Just the opposite, actually. Okay, so is this one of those slap-on-the-wrist deals where you do community service or pay a fine and then everybody’s on their way?

[ Exhales deeply ] Not likely. Not if the us attorney’s office wants carly to flip on sonny. Okay, let me get a big “ahh.” Ahh. Good. Okay. Accepting financial support from your baby’s father, it doesn’t make you unfit.

[ Sighs ] I’m just terrified that I’ll lose ace. You have rights, esme. But, anyway, as far as your throat, it does look irritated. I don’t think it’s strep, though. But we’re going to do a culture just to make sure, okay? A-and what about the muscle aches? You endured a horrible ordeal when ace was kidnapped, right? Well, so did you. Yeah. Yeah, I did. And I had trouble sleeping. I had trouble eating. Did the same thing happen for you? It was awful. I mean, my baby coming home was all I could think about. I think you’re under a lot of stress right now. I did have a panic attack at work yesterday. How are things going at home? I’d imagine living with spencer and laura is pretty tense, right? I mean, it’s not the best situation, no. Um… I actually tried to leave the other day. Have they threatened to cut you off if you decide to leave town? Uh, just the opposite. Spencer says he’ll follow me wherever I go.


You want to go with me to chechnya? What about your job? What about your job? I got jordan ashford to agree to take on the job of deputy mayor, so the city is left in very good hands. And besides, there’s e-mail and there’s zoom if there’s any kind of an emergency. Well, I have plenty of vacation time banked.

[ Chuckles ] Okay. Wait a minute. What about esme and spencer? Don’t we think they need a little bit of supervision? That’s really more like refereeing, and they are adults. They have to learn how to figure things out sooner or later. They can’t just keep coming to you or me to do it for them. Do you really want to leave spencer and esme to their own devices? Yeah. How about I see if alexis and her daughters are okay with being on spencer watch? Oh, I like that. Okay. I can always ask sonny to keep an eye out, too. Then it’s settled. We’re going to chechnya.

[ Laughs ] It looks like it is. Okay. Okay. We’ve got to find somebody who can speak the language and who knows how things work in that part of the world. Right, um… where do you think one would find such a person? I know who to ask. Oh, look at this one. Look at that three-car garage. It’s got a beautiful patio off the master suite. Giant pool. Gorgeous, sexy jacuzzi. Beautiful. What — look at the chandelier. Look at the — you could throw the most beautiful parties. It is gorgeous. And look at that kitchen! Wow. Wow! But, lucy, why are you showing me mcmansions? I can’t afford any of these. And besides, who has an outdoor pool in upstate new york? It’s so impractical. You say impractical, I say necessary. You know, swimming is very, very good exercise. Lucy. Okay, maybe it’s a little extravagant. I have three kids. Extravagant for me is not eating their leftovers for dinner. Very cute. Okay. Didn’t we just agree, though, that you’re gonna dream bigger, think bigger? That’s what I’m trying to get you to do. Come on, dream bigger. Okay, I need a bigger house… mm-hmm. …So that all of my kids can have their own rooms. Georgie will be over the moon, and james, he’ll finally stop bugging me. Wait a minute. Wait for it.

[ Gasps ] Okay, look at this one. Look at it. Oh, tree-lined neighborhood. It says “good schools,” excellent schools. Big backyard. Wow. Four bedrooms, three baths, and walk-in closet. Did you say three bathrooms? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Okay, talk about the lap of luxury. I am in love. And, look, it even has a little white picket fence. Ohh. Aww!

[ Both laugh ] When did I start liking white picket fences? Does that mean I’m a grown-up now? I think you become a grown-up when you became a mother. But you know, you do you. You get to do whatever you want and what you think is right.

[ Both laugh ]

[ Gasps ] Wow! I love it. So, the mechanic tells me, “a rabbit ate your engine.”

[ Both laugh ] Not possible. Actually, it happens a lot more than you think, especially in the snow. The engine is still warm, and the rabbit is looking for a source of heat, so it curls its way up by the engine and starts chewing on the hoses. Oh.

[ Chuckles ] When they popped that hood, rabbit fur everywhere.

[ Laughs ] So not a fan of bunnies, huh? Uh, no. Not anymore. Where are you from? How do you know I’m an out-of-towner? I’d remember if I’d seen you before. Alright, well, you got me. I’m new to port charles. This place is starting to look better by the minute. Wow! Nina reeves is your mother? I read crimson religiously. Oh, it’s a shame she didn’t get a chance to raise you. I mean, I’m not sure it’S… really a bad thing. Harmony had her faults, but nina…

[ Sighs ] …Is a train wreck. Oh, honey, I don’t believe anyone’s all bad — or all good, for that matter. We’re all flawed and imperfect. Some of us give in to our good instincts. Some of us give in to the bad ones. Life is complicated. But it sounds to me like the universe wants you in each other’s orbits. Nina’s aunt liesl saved your life with the bone marrow transplant. I think the universe wants you in each other’s lives. No, no. Nina’s made too many mistakes that every time I give her an inch, she takes a mile. Yet you forgave harmony for her mistakes.

[ Sighs ] Is nina really that unforgivable? Yes. Yes, that’s — that’s exactly what I’m saying. So, if you were to get a call saying that nina had died in an unexpected car accident, how would you feel?


This house, it does seem perfect for me. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms, an amazing kitchen, good schools. But, lucy, can I really afford it?

[ Sighs ] Come on. Look around you. Think about what an amazingly successful year we’ve had here at deception together. Right, but what about next year and the year after that, and the year after that? Okay, okay, okay. That’s a valid point. But all we’re going to have to do is come up with more and more products, new and better products, and we can do that together, as long as we just put our minds to it. Come on, maxie. Live for today. To living for today. Mm-hmm. And to deception. To deception.

[ Laughs ]

[ Glasses clink ] I hope you don’t mind that I got your phone number from brook lynn, but I have a problem with something, and you were the perfect person to talk to about it. Oh, no, no, no. It’s not official city business. No, it’s personal. Uh, my son has been missing for a few months now, and I have reason to believe that he might be in a home in chechnya. And the thing is, my husband and I don’t speak russian, and we have never been to that part of the world, so we were sort of hoping that you might know someone who could act both as a translator and as a guide. So, would you happen to know anyone who would fit that bill? Uh, well, kevin and I would like to leave as soon as we can. In my opinion, you need to do what’s best for you and that baby. I agree, but laura does have a good point. I mean, I can’t take care of ace all by myself, and if I leave town, then I’ll have to get a full-time job. But maybe not. People need money to eat and to buy clothes and put a roof over their head. Yes, of course, but do you honestly think that spencer would let his baby brother go hungry? I don’t want to be dependent on anyone. I respect that, I really do. But maybe moving out of port charles with your baby would be better for you. Sounds to me like you’d be more comfortable without ace’s family watching your every move. The situation is just so untenable. You know, at some point, something’s gotta give. And thank you for talking this out. I know that you have enough on your plate, so I really appreciate it. Well, it is awkward being in my own house and staying in the guest room. Yeah, I — I bet it is. But I owe it to myself and to portia to hang in there, make it work. I’m proud of you. And that kiss, man, it just confused everything and it brought up feelings that were better off buried.


and the truth came out about who she it was just a question.

[ Monitors beep ] You don’t play fair, do you? It was just a question.

[ Sighs ] When harmony died and the truth came out about who she really was and all the bad things she’d done, I still miss her, and I never stopped loving her. And, yes, I wish she were still alive. Your biological mom isn’t dead. No, she’s not, and she very badly wants to be in my life and my kids’ lives. And if nina were to die tomorrow…

[ Sighs ] …I think I would feel another loss, like I did with harmony. But with nina, it’s — it’s so much more complicated. Does it have to be? My relationship with my mother wasn’t perfect, but I would do anything to see her again.

[ Pager beeping ] Oh. Oh. I gotta go. I’ll see you later, sweetheart. Thank you, yuri. What? Did yuri say he can’t help us? Just the opposite. He’s between jobs. He said he’d love to help us. That’s excellent. For the first time in weeks now, I-I actually believe there’s a chance that I will see my son again. Someone is gonna call you with the result of your throat culture. And in the meantime, here’s a prescription. It’s gonna help you manage your pain. Thank you. So just, you know, eat healthy, fluids and nutrient-rich foods. Okay. So, take care of yourself and that baby. Will do. And, um, I’ll think about what you said. I really hope that things work out with you and portia, man. I really do. Well, time will tell. Drew, let me know if you need anything. Only if you do the same. You got it. See you, man.

[ Sighs ] Hey, it’s drew cain. Um… we gotta move up the meeting regarding the sec. I… I want to talk about a deal. Where’s tracy? Gone. More pté for us. Ugh, I hate pté. Really? Me too.

[ Both chuckle ] So, uh, what’s going on with you and your grandmother? I wish I knew.

[ Sighs ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

It’s actually really good. Yeah. Mm-hmm. You got some mad skills, Mr. Cook? Well, if I say so myself, it does pair rather nicely with the champagne. I’m sure it does. You know the French stole the idea for champagne from the Scotts Champagne. There’s no way That’s true. It’s absolutely true. Ah, Scottish people invented all kinds of tasty things.

We invented hamburgers, pizza, okay, you’re literally just making things up. Now. Why would I do that? Scottish or famous inventor as, what else did we come up with there? Zippers, hoverboards. Kissing. Kissing. The Scott’s invented. Kissing. Well, maybe we just. Perfecting it.

Oh, I’m just glad this time you didn’t slap me,

yo. I just wanna make sure that all units know unequivocally, this is our top priority. It’s all hands on deck situation. Okay, well keep me posted.

Oh, well, how’d the arraignment go? I may bail. Yeah. Good. Yeah. Well, your sister will be relieved. Yeah. Well, it helped that Talia expressed great remorse for her actions, and I assured the judge that she will testify against Colin. Right. Well, unfortunately that will all be moot if we can’t find him. What do you mean if you can’t find him?

Call and escaped.

Wait. You can’t just put me in jail. I’m an innocent civilian. I didn’t do anything wrong. You had contact with a known fugitive and you failed to report him to the police. I was scared. Okay. I was shook. Look, look at what he did to my phone. I was worried he would do the same thing to me if I ratted him out to the fuzz.

You sure you weren’t keeping quiet so you could write about this in your column? You know, clout chasing as they say. What? No, no, I wasn’t chasing any clout. Detective, please do not put me in jail. I am not suited for it. It won’t come to that Leo just so long as you tell me every detail about your encounter with Colin Bedford.

Thank you. Yes, I am more than happy to help, but is there any way you can leave my name out of it? I do not need another target on my back. Another one. Believe it or not, Colin Bedford is not the only evil European dreamboat who might be out to get me. A couple of summers ago, I incurred the wrath of one of Salem’s, shall we say, newer bad boys, Dimitri Von Weisner.

Sorry, me. I’m gonna have to side with your boy on this. I’m gearing up for a custody fight and showing up in court with my nephew on my arm is not likely to win many brownie points with the judge. Pathetic. Oh, relaxed mother. Plenty of fish in the sea. Yes, but most of them are not suitable for you to marry Dimitri.

If we’re not gonna keep it in the family, then we have to be very careful finding you an incredibly special woman to marry. Yahoo. Anyone home The door was open. I’m looking for Dimitri Vonner. I’m Dimitri. And you might be Gwen first check editor in chief at the Spectator. Ah-ha. So you’re a reporter. Mm.

And also my friend, but I take it you’re here on business. Yes, I am. I’m, um, actually hoping to get the scoop on your nephew. He’s, uh, was in quite the stir and um, I’m sure that our loyal readers would love to know a bit more about Mr. Tall, dark, and Handsome. Well then it seems that you’ve come to the right place.

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

sister. Hmm? You have yet to introduce me to your charming friend here. Oh. Oh. Well forgive me. Um, Gwen, this is my sister, Megan Damara. Megan Gwen, pleasure to meet you. Likewise. So how do you two know each other? Um, but you like to tell her or shall I? Oh dear. Um, well, Uh, Kristen blackmailed me into helping her escape police custody.

Such a good friend, good friend that I am. I returned the favor helping Gwen out of a jammer too, including obtaining her, pardon when we were at Statesville together, which I am still very grateful for. And, uh, forgive me if I’m being too intrusive, but what brought you to prison?

Well, um, my sister Abigail, your Uncle Chad’s. Deceased wife was being a bit of trouble, and I mean that with absolutely no disrespect at all. She was a wonderful woman. I still grew her loss actually, but being at a very vulnerable time and place in my life, I perceived her to be quite a threat. Um, so sort of shipped her off to a deserted island,

but, um, she was eventually rescued, wasn’t she? Um, yeah, but when she found out that I was responsible for shipping her to said island, well, you get the picture. Sure. Yeah. It sounds like, um, Well, it sounds like it was a trying time for you. Yeah, it was more trying for Abigail actually. It’s something I will always regret doing to her, but anyway, enough about me.

How about you? I have been following your story, Dimitri. I find it quite fascinating and I would really love to get an interview with you. Sorry. But I’m not interested in doing press.

Let’s not be so hasty.

What happened after he destroyed your phone? He just walked away. The creep. Do you remember in which direction? West? No, east up left. I’m, I’m directionally challenged. Needless to say, I didn’t follow him since he was the one with the gun. Okay. Uh, is there anything else that I should know? That’s everything.

I swear you’re well then. Thank you for your time, Mr. Stark. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, wait, wait. I answered all of your questions. So, in the interest of reciprocity, I think it’s only fair, you answered some of mine bad. What? Your sister, Talia Hunter.

Wait, Colin took the mayor hostage. Well, we don’t know that for sure, but it’s, it’s a hell of a coincidence. This is all . Yeah. I mean, Chanel and Paulina must be so freaked out. Are there any leads, Jane’s questioning a potential witness as we speak?

Just when I’m starting to forget what that felt like. I can’t believe you slapped me again and I can’t believe you kissed me again. And Gwen’s not even here to witness it. So it’s not for her benefit. No, it wasn’t. It was for your benefit. For mine, I meant for our benefit wasn’t a performance. I meant it.

I, oh, no, Chloe, I just, I’ve been feeling kind of a vibe between us and I thought you were feeling it too. Was I wrong

actually, if I’m being honest, you weren’t completely off base.

So I, I wasn’t imagining it. You, you did feel a spark too, right? Maybe.

Okay. Yes. I, I did feel it. And not just tonight. Ever since you and I moved in here together, I’ve sensed that there’s, you know, something between us. Yeah. See, I’m just happy to know. I’m not going mad. You don’t seem too thrilled. It’s because I’m not Well, why is that? I mean, I mean, you said you were moving on from Brady and that that ship has sailed, so That’s true.

Brady and I don’t have a future together. What’s the problem? The problem is, ugh. I hate that I’m attracted to you.

Listen, Talia, I just want you to know that Colin’s escape has absolutely no bearing on your situation. Okay? Your bail’s been granted and you’re free to go. You just need to be very careful. Yeah. I just can’t believe all this is happening. Like what was Colin thinking? Hopefully the police will find him and they will come back.

Safe and sound. Pray to God that you’re right. Listen, I, I have to go home, but, um, do you have any questions? No, seriously, just thank you so much for all of your help. Yeah, of course. You have my number. Don’t hesitate to call me if you need anything. Okay.

Anywhere? No, not yet. So you don’t have any idea where Colin might have gone? No. I, I mean, I suppose he might be going back to New York, but then again he doesn’t have many friends there to speak up. Right. Okay. Well, you think on it, if anything comes to mind, he let me know, right? Yeah, of course. All right.

Wait, before you leave, um, I owe you an apology.

What questions do you have about my sister? Well, how are things looking for her? I do know she was arrested for being Colin Bedford’s partner in crime. She wasn’t his partner. No. From what I hear, they were regular Bonnie and Clyde, and I don’t mean Lockhart in Weston. Or maybe I do. Those who both did go to prison for killing people.

My sister didn’t kill anyone, but she did trash Paulina’s office and drug those biscuits. I wouldn’t say her hands are exactly clean in all this. Well, that’s because Colin was extremely manipulative and she was naive. She didn’t know. Well, it’s not like she didn’t have a choice. You didn’t have a gun to her head.

Well, that’s easy to say if you’re not being abused. Okay. Are you saying Talia was trapped in an abusive relationship? Can I quote you on that?

Mother, please. I’m suffering from some serious jet lag, and the last thing I need right now is to be grilled by the fourth estate jet lag to meet Tri Dira. We do jet lag. After all. This isn’t just any reporter, Ms. Rice, check risk check. Yes, that’s what I said. Is a friend of your aunt, I’m sure she doesn’t have a malicious agenda.

No. No, of course not. Honestly, I, I just want to get your story out there and there are already some quite, uh, uncharitable rumors floating about. I would just like to give you the opportunity to clear them up. Okay. Well, the thing is, I don’t give a damn what people think. So let the rumor mill churn. Are you sure that’s wise?

Would you like to just give it a thing? Thank you so much for the opportunity, but my answer is no. My son. Can we please have a private word together

if we must?

We.

Listen to me, Dimitri, you do not want to miss this golden opportunity. What do we hear, what people say about us? This is not about pr. This is about making that reporter the future. Mrs. Von Leischner.

Congratulations on your immunity deal, Kristin. Very impressive. How you managed to keep pulling rabbits out of your hat. Ah, well, I am no magician. It’s, oh, thanks to my sister this time. So you made an ally, have you? Mm-hmm. Maybe you don’t trust her. Of course not. She is a dememer. Yes, as is her son.

Obviously. He seems to be feisty. I guess that’s a word for it. Yeah. Well, I’m quite feisty myself too, if you haven’t noticed, and, uh, I’m very determined to get that interview. I’m going to do everything in my power to make that happen.

You can be serious. You want me to marry that? That rice checks woman Riz check. And you rejected my other idea. So, because I won’t marry my own aunt, now I have to marry the next stranger that walks in off the street. She’s hardly a stranger. She and your aunt were prison mates. So she’s a fall mother.

This is, this is even worse, Dolly. Her crimes are child’s play compared to what you and I have done. That is not the point. The point is, oh, wouldn’t you want me to be. In love with the person I’m going to marry. That is a luxury that we don’t have time for. If you want to inherit the enlo or forcing, you have to be married by the time you are 40, which is fast approaching.

So forget about love and go in there and convince Lois Lane to marry you as soon as possible. I’m sorry, Lois Lane, but this interview is over. Actually, I’m more of a Clark Kent. Okay, fine. Maybe I am a Lois Lane. Well, besides, don’t you want your sister’s side of the story to be told, especially since you know she was being abused?

I shouldn’t have told you that. Look, I get it. I know people don’t like talking about that stuff, but I can relate. My father was physically abusive. Well, this was more like emotional abuse. See, I can relate to that too. My mother was the queen concert of all forms of emotional manipulation in blackmail.

If you ask me or my therapist, a woman should wear a crown. Look, I, I appreciate your empathy, Leo. I do. But I can’t continue this conversation with you right now. I need to focus on finding Mayor Carver and Mr. Bedford. Sure. Of course. And I don’t mean to sound insensitive, but I do have a journalistic responsibility to print what you’ve already given me.

I understand I can’t stop you from printing what you’re going to print, but as someone who’s been abused yourself, I would hope that you would have some idea of what my sister is going through, so hopefully there’s a, a heart in there somewhere and you keep my sister’s name out of your call.

And why do you feel it’s, you owe me in apology? I don’t know. I mean, for one, you went to the hospital because of me. Hmm. And I don’t know, you just, you spent so much time and energy looking for the person responsible. And if I would’ve just said something sooner, you know, if, if minute my guilt, things wouldn’t have gotten as bad.

So I, I just wanna say that I’m, I’m really, I’m really, really sorry. Okay. I appreciate your apology. I respect you taking responsibility for your actions. I just wish I could say the same thing about Colin. Yeah. You know, all this time I thought he was the victim, you know, because of like what happened to his parents, and that’s how I kept rationalizing.

What he was asking me to do for him, but I swear, I, I swear I never thought that he was this dangerous. Okay. I, I never genuinely thought that he was gonna hurt anybody.

Well, something tells me that he hit it pretty well. Yeah. Obviously I just feel really bad that I dragged my sister into all of this. I know. This is like a really bad look for her that I’m caught up in like this huge scandal. Yeah. Well, Jada doesn’t care about that. She cares about you. She loves you. Why?

She hired the best damn lawyer that she could find. Now my advice, I wanna make things up to your sister. You do whatever the hell bell tells you to do. Okay?

Oh my God. What the heck? Howdy, howdy, howdy. Sean, you’re home. Why didn’t you tell me you were flying back? I’m sorry. It just, you know, things, uh, just all happened very quickly. Have you been drinking? Uh, yes. And if you ask me, not nearly enough,

Sean, what’s going on? Did something happen with your dad? Nope. He’s uh, Still in a coma. Nothing’s changed. It’s all quiet on the Western front. So then why are you guzzling all this beer? Um, be, that’s a good question. Let me, um, hold, let me think about that one. Um, Maybe it’s because I shot my dad and I put him in a coma.

Okay, come on Sean. Listen, I’m gonna say this to you for the umpteenth time. It was an accident and everyone knows that, and everyone has tried over and over to get you to know that, so you’ll stop torturing us. Accident or no accident Bell, my old man is hanging on by a thread, not to mention my wreck of a mom who can, who’s just doing everything that she can just to try to stay positive.

Okay. Every day goes by, I gotta sit there and I gotta see her suffering, knowing that there’s nothing that I can do to help her. In fact, you know what? I think that, I think that I just made things worse. So that’s the reason why I came home. Sean, your mom does not blame you for what happened? Yeah, maybe not consciously.

Okay. In any case, After we got my dad situated, I just felt that it was best to, to make myself scarce. Well, from what you’ve told me, he’s got a, a team of world-class doctors and, you know, maybe they’re gonna find a way to bring him back to us. I just, I hope, I hope that Megan doesn’t find out where he is at.

Oh, come, my mom, she’s, she’s got enough on her plate as it is. Uh, yeah. About Megan. Um, EJ told me that she’s actually back in Salem. Wait, what? Yeah, she’s staying at the Damir mansion.

No. No. Where are you going? Where do you think I’m going? I’m gonna go give that bitch a piece of my mind. Yes, mother. I am well aware that there is a time crunch, but I’m not turning 40 tomorrow. I’d like to, you know, explore my options. What options. You’re not seeing anyone. And the last romantic encounter you had with Billy Reid was all an act.

Am I correct? You really don’t see how crazy this is, do you? Well, maybe a little crazy is what we need in this fortuitous situation, Dimitri, that inheritance money is rightfully yours. And let me let you in on honorable secret. I have big. Plans. Plans that require significant funding. So you need to put a ring on her finger, but why this woman, mother?

I mean, I’ve only known her for two minutes. I don’t know anything about her. Well, let me bring you up to speed. She is successful, she’s smart, she’s beautiful, but she has a delightful accent. That’ll be a wonder to wake up to every morning. What more do you need to know? Oh, I don’t know off the top of my head.

Uh, do you have a priest in mind for the ceremony or maybe we go with an Elvis impersonator? Oh, and you know what be helpful is, uh, knowing whether or not the bride to be is, uh, single. I did not see anything on her finger, but nail polished. So as far as I’m concerned, she’s fair gain. Now go in there and sweep that woman off her feet.

Well, you are taking this whole reporter thing very seriously. Yes. Well, I, I think I do have quite knack for it. I think I get that from my dad. Oh yeah. It’s too bad that you couldn’t bond with him over it. I mean, considering you did steal the paper from him and my friend Jennifer, my dad and your friend Jennifer, do have another paper in Boston that they’re running and they’re just fine.

Thank you for asking. Not that you cared. So you have a knack for being a reporter. I mean, good for you. How is it working with your, uh, ex? It’s the least enjoyable part. Especially considering the fact that he’s insisted that he bring on his little bird. He must mean Chloe Lane. Mm. The boring third rate singer, which my precociously perceptive child calls the evil one.

How do you know? Well, my Precociously Sharp eye daughter, uh, told me that Chloe and Zander were playing house together. Oh. Oh. And then I saw them yesterday and uh, they were kind of cussing up together. Oh.

You know, Zander says that there’s nothing romantic going on between them, but. To be honest, I think it’s just a matter of time before they have a romp in the hay. 10. Well, selfishly, I am relieved that that human barnacle has finally detached herself from Brady. I am sorry for you. They’d have to deal with her.

Oh. But if you want, I could, um, give you some pro tips on how to disappear the love, some pitch. I mean, if that is, if you wanna get back with Sander. I really appreciate that, Kristen, but that is literally the last thing I want. Oh, I said so yes, I’ve decided that it’s time for me to hop off the Zander.

Merry go round. Since he’s not really serving me anymore, given his very fickle nature, I need to put the rate behind me and move on with my life. Maybe even find someone new.

I don’t understand. Like why would you be upset about having feelings for me? Because you are you I clears it, right? Huh? Oh, come on, Xander. Like you can’t figure it out. You left me in the clutches of a Mexican drug. Lord, you, you shot Brady. You locked Nicole in a shark cage and, and you’re the literal clown who kidnapped Susan and Bonnie.

Well, that seems all your PowerPoint presentations missing is the slides. Look, if I’m so bloody awful, why do you have feelings for me? Because I’ve, I’ve seen another side of you. I’ve been sneaking peeks at me in the shower. Have you?

No, boy, just mean I’ve seen another side of you as a human being. You know, when you confessed your remorse about Susan’s death, I could tell that you really meant it. I guess there is a little heart. In there and you’ve gone to bat for me with Gwen and getting me that job at the paper, and you’ve just, you’ve been really kind to me and ugh.

And then you go and make me this beautiful dinner.

Are you saying that you might actually like me after all clothing? Like, like, like me, Todd, help me. Well, if that’s the case, I have a suggestion. Stop fighting your feelings cause that’s always a losing battle. Put down your harpoon and just

give into what your heart desires.

Ah, this, this is a really bad idea. We, we would live together. We work together. This could get really complicated, really fast. We’d have to commit to anything, Chloe, but we just take it day by day, see where it goes. Yeah. Especially since you’re still getting over Brady. And what about you? Are you really over Sarah?

Mm-hmm. And I told you I was, look, it’s like what you were saying to me about you and Brady still have feelings for her, but I know that ship is sail. Speaking of ships, I just realized that I’ve been involved with like half of your male relatives, Brady, Phillip, Damos, Victor’s godson, Daniel, sorry. So I should learn from my past mistakes and just swear off all Kiki men since it never seems to work out.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m the best in the whole bunch and you’ve never been with me. Seriously, Chloe, I think we should stop overthinking this. I say we try that kiss again and this time. Don’t focus on what you should or should not feel, and then you’ll have your answer. Are you sure you wanna risk getting slapped again?

I’m willing to take my chances

at this point. Dear Reader. You probably believe you’ve heard everything there is to know about Colin Bedford and Talia Hunter’s sorted tale of revenge, but you would be mistaken for lady whistleblower. Half uncovered the latest, greatest juiciest new bombshell to date. According to Talia’s sister, detective Jada, hunter Talia has been the victim of emotional abuse inflicted upon her by Mr.

Bedford. Talk about a twisted relationship.

Select all.

Delete. Oh, I hate having a conscience. Damn you, detective. Oh my God. I am so happy that you may be, I heard about Colin, um, was Leah Stark? Give any hope. Ah, not really. When Leo ran into call and he was still wearing Officer Henshaw’s uniform. Hmm. And there was no sign of Mayor Carver. Great. So we’re back to square one.

Oh, I’m, I’m so sorry guys. Don’t, don’t worry about it. We’re not gonna stop until we find them. Yeah. I mean, is, is there anything I can do to help or, yeah. Yeah, you can go home, lock your door, and then let the police handle this. Yeah. You know Ray’s right. Colin is probably very upset with you about turning on him.

You need to be very careful, Talia. I’ll have one of my officers give you a left home. Okay? Thank you so much. Yeah, listen, if you hear anything from Colin, call me right away. Okay? Yeah.

We’re so sorry for the delay, but have wonderful news. After a brief but uplifting pow wow. My son has decided to do the interview. Isn’t that right? Mere? Yes, that is correct. But like I said, I’m pretty worn out for my travel. So if we could please schedule Liz for some other time. Yes, yes, of course.

Whatever is convenient for you. What about tomorrow? You too can have a nice chat over dinner. Um, could we perhaps make it lunch? I’m, I’m quite anxious to get this story out before the intruder descends, you know? Well, either way, we’ll gather your contact information from Kristen and we’ll send along the details.

Right. Okay. Brilliant, brilliant. Um, I look forward to hearing your story. Mr. Honner. Please call Dimitri.

I am so glad that this worked out. Something tells me that this lunch is gonna be an exciting opportunity for both of you.

Sean, no. Give me the keys. Well give you, give you my keys. What? What are you, are you the valet now or something fell. You’re in no condition to drive and confronting Megan right now is not gonna change anything. Be Listen to me. My dad. My dad is fighting for his life because of that bitch. Right. She messed with his head and she, she kept him from his family.

You think that she doesn’t deserve to, to answer for that? Of course I do, but there’s nothing that we can do right now, so just give me the keys.

You know, I suppose that as much as I’d like to, I, I, I can’t, I can’t place the blames squarely on Megan’s shoulders because, Because I’m the one that pulled the trigger.

Sean, just, why don’t you put that down and come to bed? Why? Hmm. I got two beers left, and you know what they say? No soldier left behind Sean. I really think that you’ll feel better if you get some sleep. I said, no Bell now will just leave me the hell alone.

What’s the verdict? He was nice. Nice, nice. Hmm. Now I was kind of hoping for steamy or lovely or Please. And to whisk me away to Paris. Okay. You’re gonna have to settle for Nice for now. Okay. Okay. Nice. It is. Please. I didn’t get slapped this time. That’s progress, isn’t it? No, don’t push it. Okay. Well, in the name of not pushing it, I am not gonna kiss you again, even though I really wanna, so, um, what should we do?

Any ideas?

I think that we should. Get back to that dinner.

Look, I’m, I’m sorry that I snapped at you. Okay. I’m sorry, but look, I just, I want to be left alone. Well, you’re drunk. And you’re not thinking straight, and the last thing you need is to be alone. Listen, I’m fine. I’m fine. You’ve got my keys. You know I’m not going anywhere. I’m gonna be right here. Okay. So just, just please, just go to bed.

Okay. I’ll wait up for you.

I love you.

So Kristen, do you have any ideas where Dimitri and Gwen can dine together tomorrow? Why not Should leave that one detail up to me mother. What about shenanigans? Is that place still open? No, it went under years ago. Rather fitting though. Considering what you two are plotting, whatever do you mean? Ah, my Spidey sins tell me that you believe that you found Deri here.

A wife subtlety was never my mother’s strong suit. That’s very discerning of you, Kristin. Yes. I believe that Gwen, what’s her name, will be a pseudo means to an end. Oh, how romantic quote from Wordsworth. What’s most important to me and Dimitri is that he inherits what’s rightfully his, and if it turns out to be a love match between he and this charming British woman so much, the better.

There you are. Here I am. So how did it go with z Yvonne Leischner? Did you get lost in his eyes and have trouble finding your way home? Even better. He offered to give me an exclusive interview at lunch tomorrow. You lucky double. How did you manage to score such a hot story with an even hotter hunt? Some gwenny magic, I suppose.

Meanwhile, I’m over here with Bks for my column tomorrow. Oh dear. No big scoops for Mattie. I had one, a great one. In fact, it was, but someone had to go and guilt me out of it. God, why would I say anything to that idiot? Much less that TA was in an abusive relationship. Oh, look, I, Leo Stark is relentless and provocative and.

You were obviously upset. Thanks for trying to make me feel better. But we both know that he’s going to print every word that I said. I mean, it’s, it’s Leo Stark, right? Yeah, that’s Leo Stark. Listen, if what you said ends up in his column, we’ll deal with it. Okay? Thanks. Yeah, and listen, if you wanna go be with your sister, I understand.

No, I, I’ll go later. Right now the best way to help my sister is by finding Colin and Abe. Otherwise, she can take the fall for everything that Colin made her do. Well, that is not gonna happen, I promise. Well, let’s find that bastard.

Thank you so much for sending me home officer.

God, I could use a long hot shower.

Officer Shaun.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Ridge: All right, everyone just take a breath. Why are we fighting here? What’s going on?

Brooke: Taylor has been playing me for months.

Taylor: Stop it, brooke! That is not true!

Brooke: Oh, god!

Taylor: That is not true!

Brooke: It is true. She broke our pact, ridge. She destroyed our friendship. She used me, and the only reason she did that was to get to you.

[ Restaurant chatter ]

Hope: Hey, hello again.

Deacon: Hey.

Hope: Hey, dad.

Deacon: Hi, hope.

Hope: You okay? You seemed a million miles away.

Deacon: Yeah, I wish. Uh, I don’t suppose you have a space shuttle I can borrow?

Hope: [ Laughs ] Uh, no? Why, what’s going on?

Deacon: It’s about your mother.

Thomas: All right. This is the one I was telling you about. What do you think?

Steffy: I think it’s stunning.

Thomas: Well, I’ve kind of changed up everything. The– the color, I revamped the bodice, and it was all last minute, but I just had to go with my gut.

Steffy: Well, it’s paying off. Look at it now.

Savannah: It’s one of my all-time favorites, thomas.

Thomas: Thank you. Yeah, I, um– I kind of decided to do the floral thing.

Thomas: You know, I was gonna go with a solid color, but I feel–

Steffy: No, no, you can’t go wrong with florals. Hope’s gonna love it.

Savannah: Hope loves everything thomas does.

[ Thomas chuckles ]

Savannah: You and hope work great together. So in sync, almost as if you were a couple.

Steffy: Okay, well, thank you, savannah. Uh, thomas and I, we actually have a meeting, so, if you don’t mind, um…

Thomas: Can you let alterations know this is a go?

Savannah: Of course. No problem.

Thomas: Yeah, thank you so much for your help.

[ Steffy sighs ]

[ Door shuts ] Don’t freak out.

Steffy: Don’t freak out?

Thomas: Yeah, savannah was just making a harmless remark.

Steffy: So, she’s not sensing a vibe with you and hope?

Thomas: There’s no vibe to pick up on, okay? What she said was just completely random. There’s nothing to worry about when it comes to hope and me.

Hope: Okay, so, what do you mean by that? Why is there an issue with mom?

Deacon: Well, I guess you’re gonna find out eventually.

Hope: Find out what?

Deacon: I tried to get with your mom. I– you know, I asked her if there was a chance of us having a future together.

Hope: You did?

Deacon: Yeah. And she shut me down very nicely.

Hope: I’m sorry, dad.

[ Deacon scoffs ]

Deacon: I just– it was stupid.

Hope: No, it’s– it’s not– it wasn’t stupid. You two shared a very special bond once upon a time.

Deacon: A long time ago. But you know what? I got the very best gift possible out of it. I got you. I should know by now that your mother doesn’t want anything besides friendship, and I– I never would have even reached out to brooke if I hadn’t listened to…

Hope: Uh, uh, listened to who?

Deacon: Taylor.

Taylor: No, no, no, she is– she is– she’s making– do you– you– you are making…

Brooke: So ridiculous.

Taylor: …Things up, brooke. What you’re saying isn’t even true.

Brooke: No, no, no. You know what? I know exactly who you are. Okay? She was pretending to have a friendship with me when all she really wanted, ridge, was you.

Taylor: Stop it, just stop! None of that is true.

Brooke: Taylor, you are not digging yourself out of this one.

Taylor: Okay.

Brooke: You know what she’s doing, ridge? She is setting me up with other men, so that she could have a clear path to you.

[ Exhales in frustration ] Your hair is damaged,

Steffy: Thomas, I have heard those words before.

Thomas: Okay, nothing is going to happen.

Steffy: I know you believe that.

Thomas: It’s not even a thought in my head.

Steffy: Yeah, maybe not in your head.

Thomas: Okay, look, hope and i are too focused on the line, uh, to care about anything else. We’ve got italy coming up, and– and douglas and anything besides that, not on our minds. But you can be as paranoid as you want.

Steffy: Oh, okay. So, as– as co-ceo of a multibillion-dollar company, I’m just being paranoid? Gotcha.

Thomas: I get it. I get it. You– look, we– we all have a lot going on, and with rome coming up, we’ve got the fashion preview and press events.

Steffy: Yeah, it’s a lot. There’s a lot on the line, thomas. And not just financially. Durability, reputation. Your reputation.

Thomas: I understand what’s at stake as much as anyone, okay? But I’m not gonna do anything to jeopardize hope’s line or her marriage.

Hope: That’s shady. Oh, taylor trying to set up mom with you or hollis so she could go snag ridge. That is…

Deacon: Just ’cause it looks like a duck, and walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck…

Hope: Okay, dad…

Deacon: Smells like a duck…

Hope: I mean, I know a little more about taylor than you do, and I know that playbook, and this is certainly a page straight out of it.

Deacon: I just hate to think the worst of her, I mean, I’m not trying to throw her to the wolves here, okay? But, I mean, taylor definitely broke your mother’s trust.

Hope: No, they had a pact, and– and mom was loyal to that agreement.

Deacon: Oh, I don’t know, I– I don’t think the two of them are gonna be agreeing on much of anything in the near future.

Hope: No kidding. I mean, do you think taylor was ever mom’s friend to begin with or, like, has she been planning this the entire time? I don’T…

Deacon: I– you know, I– who knows? I– I– I don’t think so.

Hope: This is wild. I mean, does mom know? Someone has to tell mom.

Deacon: Oh, don’t you worry your pretty little head. Yep. She knows.

Hope: You told her?

Deacon: No. No, no, no. She figured it out by herself.

Hope: That’s sad. That’s sad. It’s like, one step forward, 10 steps back.

Deacon: I think, probably, right now, as we’re speaking, taylor and brooke are duking it out.

[ Whispers indistinctly ]

Taylor: I don’t wanna fight with you, brooke.

Brooke: Mm-hmm. You should have thought of that before you double-crossed me.

Taylor: Oh. Oh, okay. That is not what I was doing.

Brooke: [ Laughs ] Oh, really? What would you call it then?

Taylor: I would call it “retaliating,” because I knew that you didn’t keep your side of the pact.

Brooke: Will you stop?

Taylor: No.

Brooke: Stop with all your excuses, okay?

Taylor: Oh, my god.

Brooke: You’ve been scheming this for months. All those lunches at il giardino.

Taylor: Oh, come on, brooke. It’s the hottest restaurant in la, we love the food.

Brooke: You were trying to set me up with hollis. And when I told you that that just wasn’t gonna happen, then you went to deacon, and suddenly, deacon is calling me out of the blue trying to make a move on me.

Ridge: Why would deacon think he had a– a shot at you? I don’t understand.

Brooke: Oh, well, because of things that taylor said to him. I mean, she urged him to go after me. She said that, “this is your chance. This is your opportunity to be with brooke since ridge is off limits.”

Taylor: That is true. But that didn’t all happen at once. Brooke, I spent so much time with you and deacon when we would go to the restaurant. That’s how that started, and I actually saw a connection, so don’t start trying to make this into something that it’s not.

Brooke: Just stop already. You set deacon up for heartache, and you sold me down the river, all because you wanted to clear your future with ridge. Clear the path to ridge. That’s what you wanted. Why don’t you just admit it already? Admit it, taylor. You already confessed to me. So? Ridge is here. Why didn’t you tell ridge what happened?

Ridge: Is it true? If you’re making a to-do list today… 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, available now at walmart.

Thomas: Come on, steff, we’ve talked about this so many times.

Steffy: You think I want to be focused on you and hope?

Thomas: Then stop. What have I done to make you question my integrity?

Steffy: I am not pointing the finger at you, thomas.

Thomas: Kind of feels like you are.

Steffy: You know I love you. You know I’m proud of you, and I recognize all the dedication to the line as a designer, as a fatheR…

Thomas: Then what more do I have to prove to make you believe in me?

Steffy: I do believe in you. But that doesn’t mean I still don’t have concerns about you and hope spending so much time together.

Hope: Well, this is a disappointing development.

Deacon: Hmm.

Hope: Mom must be really upset.

Deacon: She’s definitely hurt and she feels betrayed by taylor.

Hope: Well, she should. I mean, a world-renowned psychiatrist. Please. I mean, pushing two people together, knowing that you have a soft spot for mom, and she not only used mom, but she used you.

Deacon: All right, wait, hang on a second, I didn’t get used, I’m a big boy, I knew what I was doing, all right? I figured, “what the hell, why not give it another shot? I got nothing to lose.”

Hope: No, that family is beyond frustrating. I mean, taylor and steffy, they’re hypocrites. They are. They always give me and mom a hard time about being logans when taylor went and betrayed mom. Please, I hope this entire thing blows up in her face.

Taylor: Okay. I– I know that this doesn’t look good for me right now, and I get that. But what I did was not all… manipulative and shady.

Brooke: Yeah. Keep telling yourself that.

Taylor: Yeah, brooke, I will. You know, maybe, with a little bit of time… once you’re not so angry… maybe, you can see this, um, from a different perspective. I– I– I trusted you and our friendship, too. But it’s over now, right?

Brooke: Yeah. Yeah. Pretty much seems that way.

Taylor: It does.

Brooke: I mean, when you had deacon call me to come over to il giardino, you were here talking with ridge and trying to secure your future with him.

Taylor: Uh-huh.

Brooke: Isn’t that right?

Taylor: Well–

Brooke: I mean, I happened to overhear some of your conversation, ridge, to…

[ Chuckles ] So much for vowing to not fight over ridge, right?

Taylor: Well, yeah, you have your part in that, too, but yes, that is– that is true. I hate this.

Brooke: I hate this, too. I mean, we’ve made peace, taylor. We vowed to be friends. I just never expected this from you.

Taylor: Oh, god.

Brooke: My friend, taylor.

Taylor: My friend, brooke.

Ridge: Can I talk to, uh, brooke in private for a minute?

Taylor: Okay, that’s a good idea, but don’t let all the stuff she’s saying make you think worse of me.

[ Brooke laughs sarcastically ]

Brooke: Yeah.

Taylor: You haven’t heard both sides.

Ridge: We’ll talk later.

Taylor: Okay.

Ridge: I can see how hurt you are.

Brooke: I am hurt. I mean, I… I just feel so gullible, and so blindsided.

[ Brooke scoffs ] I don’t know, I– I don’t want to talk about taylor and how she– how she, uh, broke my trust.

Ridge: Okay.

Brooke: But I would like to talk about… you and me. And what our future looks like from here. When it comes to your hair, ingredients matter.

Thomas: We are heading to italy. So, this should be an exciting time for the family, for the company, and for hope for the future.

Steffy: It is. Rome is a magical place, and I have watched people get swept up in the beauty and romance of it all.

Thomas: Okay, but not hope and me, right? Because we are just colleagues. We– we work together, and that’s it. Strictly professional.

Steffy: Yeah, I know that’s your intention.

Thomas: I promise to you that nothing’s going to happen, and I’ll back it up. If something ever did happen, I’ll buy you a new car.

[ Steffy chuckles ] I’ll buy you a new house. That’s how confident I am nothing’s going to happen. I promise there will be no drama in italy.

Niente.

Steffy: I– I can’t help, but be apprehensive, and I’m not trying to rain on your parade or anything.

Thomas: Okay. Rome is going to be awesome. We are the talk of the town, right? Why can’t you just have some faith, and know that everything’s gonna be okay?

Steffy: Hope you’re right.

[ Door clicks open ]

Thomas: Mom.

Taylor: Hi.

Thomas: Perfect timing, actually. I have some sketches I want to show you.

Taylor: Oh, good. I– I wanna see the sketches.

Steffy: What’s going on with you? You seem upset.

Taylor: No. No, I– I don’t want to… I– I just– I don’t want to–

Thomas: Mom, obviously, something’s going on, what’s up?

Steffy: Tell us.

Taylor: Brooke and i got in a fight.

Steffy: Like, physical?

Taylor: Yeah. Well, kind of. Yeah, um, then, your– your dad walked in on it.

Thomas: Okay, what were you fighting about?

Steffy: Yeah, I thought you two were super close.

Taylor: Me, too. Um, she thinks that I broke the pack, and I think it was the other way around. It’s complicated, uh… but I did end up forcefully suggesting to deacon that he reach out to brooke and, uh, try to make a life with her. Which initially, was– was because they’re– they’re cute together, and I thought it would be a good idea, but anyway, uh, long story short, um… brooke is accusing me of– of scheming.

Steffy: Wait, but hope is trying to… she’s been trying to get her parents back together for years. What’s the difference?

Thomas: Yeah.

Steffy: Timing. And because it’s coming from me. So, brooke found out, and she’s accusing me of trying to get her out of the way, so that… I can be with your dad.

Thomas: Okay, so, um, what does this mean? Does this mean that your pact with brooke is over?

Taylor: Over. It’s– it’s done.

Steffy: And does that mean you now wanna… be with dad again?

Taylor: I have never not wanted your dad.

Brooke: Oh, god! The nerve of her! You have every reason to be upset. But I gotta tell you, I find it really hard to think that taylor is as calculating as you think she is.

Brooke: Yeah, yeah, well…

[ Laughs ] Oh, ridge. There is so much going through my head right now. I– I can’t even begin to tell you. But I– I don’t wanna waste any more time thinking about taylor. I want to focus on you and me and our future together. I never thought that this would be a possibility again. But I want you to know… that I never stopped thinking about you. Never stopped wanting you. Longing for you. Wanting you back home with me. I can’t believe it. I, uh– I chose myself, and I chose a friendship– a friendship with taylor… over the man that… the man, you. Over you, a man that I’ve loved most of my life.

Ridge: Yes, we’ve been through a lot. And we’re here. But honestly, do you… you really still believe in eternal love? Because I don’T.

Brooke: I do believe in eternal love. And I still believe in our destiny.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Nick: All right, I’ll make you some tea, you can go and check on faith.

[ Lock clicking ]

Sharon: Nick.

Nick: Just got to make sure everything’s locked up.

Sharon: Nick.

Nick: You know, we can’t get comfortable, because if we do, that’ll be the opportunity that cameron needs.

Sharon: Okay, nick–

Nick: Hey, this bolt is loose. I’m gonna have to fix that. You should close these curtains. What about the guest room?

Sharon: Nicholas!

Nick: What?

Sharon: Calm down.

Nick: Sharon, we have to be proactive.

Sharon: I know, we will. And I’m going to go and check on faith, but I am not going to alarm her.

Nick: Yeah. It’s probably best. What about the tea, is that too much?

Sharon: I think that’s an excellent idea. Listen, we are not going to freak out about cameron. We can’T. We are going to remain calm and rational. I’m not gonna make the same mistakes I made with him last time. And I’m not gonna let you do that either.

[ Door slamming ]

Tucker: You still seem agitated.

Ashley: Well, I am.

Tucker: Even after?

Ashley: After what?

Tucker: Mind-blowing sex, man.

Ashley: Oh, that.

[ Chuckles ]

Tucker: I’m in my happy place. You should join me.

Ashley: I can’t, not while diane jenkins is–

Tucker: Oh, diane jenkins, diane jenkins!

Ashley: Easy, easy.

Tucker: I got an idea. Right now, we go to the airport, you and me, and we fly anywhere in the world. Vacation. Take you away from all this diane jenkins stress.

Ashley: I can’T. Not while this stress wants to marry my brother, and destroy my family. Not a chance.

Tucker: Mm. Worth a shot.

Ashley: [ Sighs ] You don’t honestly think that I’m gonna walk away from this fight, do you?

Tucker: All right, so you’re not afraid of diane. Congratulations. I am. And if you’re not careful, you’re gonna strangle her.

[ Chuckles ] You’re gonna be fitted with your own ankle monitor.

Jack: It’s been a very full day. May I take you home?

Diane: Yes, you may. But not yet. I never want this day to end.

Jack: Then I will hold you in my arms as long as you want.

Kyle: What the hell is phyllis doing here?

Summer: Kyle, you followed me here?

Kyle: I was worried.

Phyllis: I can explain.

Kyle: I don’t give a damn about your explanations. We are going to the police station right now, and you are turning yourself in. Strong enamel is your best defense

Additional sponsorship provided by…

Summer: I know that this is a huge shock.

Kyle: You think?

Summer: I mean, it is for all of us, I– I’m still getting used to it myself. Seeing my mom in the flesh like this, it’s amazing.

Kyle: That’s one word for it. How long has phyllis been here?

Summer: Daniel, could you please wait in the hallway? In case somebody else comes, you could head them off.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Kyle. Well, I’m– I’m sure you have a lot to say to me, right?

Kyle: Damn right, I do! Summer was broken because of you. My mother was facing life in prison because of you.

Phyllis: Aw, your mom is so innocent. Isn’t she? She’s never committed a crime, she’s never hurt anybody or put anybody through pain, right?

Summer: Mom, please.

Phyllis: Uh– it’s okay, babe. I’m sorry. Kyle, I’m sorry. I really am. Please, believe me. Oh, god. I’m sorry, I– my head’s spinning. I– I– this is so hard for me. I know I put a lot of people through pain, and one of those people is your mother, and I am so sorry. Kyle, please believe me. That’s why I’m back. That’s why I’m here. I want to make amends. I want to make things right.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Love won, jack. We won, because of you. You made this possible. Your love, your compassion, your patience. You let me back into your life when everyone was telling you to run the other way. And I saw you struggle, I saw– I saw how hard it was for you to trust me, and I– I just wanted to be worthy of that trust.

Jack: I have never loved you more.

[ Diane chuckles ] And I couldn’t be more excited about our future.

Diane: When we were dancing, I was thinking about how I could have never had this kind of day as the person I was before. But I’m free of the past, of– of so much bitterness. Falling in love with you again, seeing your grace, your generosity of spirit, learning from you… I’ve found a compassion of my own. Even for phyllis. As angry as I am with her, I also pity her.

Jack: I thought we weren’t gonna talk about phyllis tonight.

Diane: You’re right. Let’s talk about you some more.

Jack: No, I got a better topic. You said earlier you can’t wait to get married.

Diane: That’s right.

Jack: So, when? When can we be pronounced husband and wife?

Ashley: Diane is unfinished business for me.

Tucker: Mm-hmm.

Ashley: I can’t focus on anything else until I handle that, which is why I need your help.

Tucker: A very wise woman once forced me to become a better man in spite of myself. And, uh, I kind of like who I’ve become. Feels very good. This, however, feels very… aggressive.

Ashley: Are you not hearing anything I’m saying to you? I’m doing this for the right reason. I want to save my family, and the abbott legacy, which, by the way, used to be jack’s reason for existing until diane hijacked his brain.

Tucker: Do you really believe that diane is after jabot?

Ashley: Yes. She’s not marrying jack because she loves him, she wants access to respectability, to money, to power.

Tucker: And jabot is her ticket?

Ashley: Yes, she will convince jack to give her her position that she’s not qualified for, and she’ll use it to claw her way to the top, which is why I– you know, as I told you, I spoke to the board.

Tucker: So, your idea is to weaponize the board against jack in order to save jack?

[ Ashley sighs ] I don’t like that word, “weaponize,” but…

Tucker: Whatever.

Ashley: Yeah, it’s the only way.

Nick: How’s our girl?

Sharon: She’s awake, and, um, on high alert. She’s snuggling with borgnine, I think he makes her feel a little safer. But now that we’re back home, she’s gonna try to get some sleep.

Nick: This is crazy. It makes me want to hunt down this creep and run him out of town myself.

Sharon: Nick.

Nick: I know, I know. Calm and reasonable.

[ Sighs ] Calm and reasonable, but it is getting harder and harder to be rational about this. This madman is on the loose. We don’t know why he’s here or what he’s planning on doing.

Sharon: Maybe, it’s time we let victor and nikki know what’s happening. Why give your family just any eggs

Nick: I’ve already alerted ranch security. If we bring my dad in on this, it’s gonna turn into a whole different situation, and I’m not sure I’m ready for that.

Sharon: Well… your dad does have resources that we don’t have access to.

Nick: I know, but if we ask for his help, he’s gonna want something in return.

Sharon: Well, his family is in danger. He would do whatever it takes to protect them.

Nick: He absolutely will, but I’m telling you, he will use it as leverage to get something he wants from me, like… make me work with adam at mccall, which he’s already tried to do and it’s never gonna happen.

Sharon: Oh, I think you’re overreacting.

Nick: [ Sighs ] Am I? He hates my relationship with sally. We already have the police on this, sharon.

Sharon: Well, you said yourself, they’ve come up with nothing on cameron so far.

Nick: I do hate the waiting.

Sharon: Yeah, I know. You’re horrible at it. Nick. If you take matters into your own hands, I don’t know if we will be so lucky as we were last time. It’s a miracle that we’re actually still here after what went down in that plane.

Nick: I know.

Sharon: We should have worked with victor from the start last time, instead of waiting until I was framed for frank’s murder. This time, we know who cameron is, we know what he’s capable of, and we need to be reaching out for all the support we can get. We need your father.

Tucker: If I’m gonna ride shotgun on this thing, we need to analyze every angle.

Ashley: Mm-hmm.

Tucker: Like, when things don’t go according to plan. ‘Cause jack, if nothing else, is beloved by all. Yes, he is.

Ashley: Mm.

Tucker: And it’s gonna take real artistry to convince the board that he’s unfit. And billy’s on his side. And traci, well, she just wants to get along with everyone. What about kyle? I don’t see us getting his vote. And do you want to bring abby through the ringer?

Ashley: Okay, okay, you’re right. I know, there’s parts of this plan that require some serious finessing, but nobody finesses better than you. Right?

Tucker: Mm-hmm. But if you– if you come at the king and you miss… jack would be lionized, he’d be untouchable, and diane would be right there with him. And you would’ve lost your family in the process.

Ashley: I’m not going to fail. Period. It won’t happen.

Tucker: Mm-hmm.

Ashley: And then, diane will lose, you know, her access to respectability, power, and money, and she will lose interest in jack. And she’ll move on to the next jeremy stark, and jack will be sadder, but he’ll be wiser.

Tucker: Thanks to you.

Ashley: Yes. Thanks to me. I’ll save my brother, I’ll save my family.

Tucker: Mm.

Ashley: Oh, and by the way, diane will get a long overdue karmic kick in her ass.

Tucker: Hmm.

Ashley: Don’t you want to be along for the ride, baby?

Tucker: All right. I’m in.

Ashley: Mm.

Tucker: But if we’re going in full throttle like this, I have a suggestion.

Ashley: Of course.

Tucker: We get married immediately.

Diane: Okay. Before we set an actual date, there’s just a few details I wanna run by you.

Jack: Okay, but I pre-agree to almost everything.

Diane: [ Chuckles ] Good idea. Okay, I’d like it to be small, yet elegant. After our big announcement at the gala, I’m a little gun shy about grand gestures.

Jack: Understandably. Small and intimate is ideal.

Diane: Good. And I’d like harrison to be our ring bearer.

Jack: That would be my choice, too. He will steal the show, you know that, don’t you–

Diane: Oh, oh, I– I hope so. And normally, I would ask kyle to walk me down the aisle, but I’m assuming that you’re going to want him to be your best man, so…

[ Sighs ] …I would love it if we walked down together. Because that’s how we’ve done everything since you let me back into your life.

Jack: I love that. I would like nothing better.

Diane: Good. And… mm. I do have one more idea.

[ Sighs ] If she’ll accept, I would like summer to be my matron of honor.

Jack: Summer? You’re certain?

Diane: Yeah, our family means everything to me, jack, and I want our wedding to reflect that. And since phyllis pulled this horrible stunt, summer’s been– well, she’s been lost to us. I want her to know that she’s important, that she’s loved, and I want our wedding day to prove that phyllis has no power over our family.

Kyle: If you’re so damn remorseful, and want to make amends, and do the right thing, turn yourself in!

Summer: Kyle, that isn’t the answer.

Phyllis: No, it’s okay, summer. I know how kyle feels.

Kyle: No, you have no idea how I feel.

Phyllis: You’re right, you’re right, I have no idea how you feel. [ Sighs ] I should be punished for what I did. I realize that. I will accept punishment, but please, kyle, no police. No police, not until I clear my name.

Kyle: And there it is. You just made it about saving your own ass.

Summer: Kyle, please.

Phyllis: That’s okay. I know I was wrong, and I am so sorry. In a million ways, I am sorry. But that’s why I’m back. To do the right thing, kyle. Just like your mom did. I’m here to take responsibility, and have accountability. And I’m gonna start by admitting that I resented your mother.

Kyle: Oh, that’s an understatement.

Phyllis: I did. Because she had everything I wanted. She had a family, she had a son who loved her. And my kids wanted nothing to do with me. And I was alone. I was completely alone. And then, jeremy stark started whispering in my ear, and I tried to push him away, but he kept coming back. And I am ashamed to say that I wanted your mother hurt. And so I gave in to jeremy’s plan.

Kyle: So, you’re a victim?

Phyllis: Yeah. Just like your mom. Because jeremy took advantage of your mom when she was weak and vulnerable, just like he did me. But then, I realized…

[ Sighs ] …I was in too deep, and the only way to save myself… was by– was by hurting jeremy.

Kyle: By killing him.

Phyllis: Yes. But it wasn’t murder, kyle. It was self-defense.

Kyle: Your word against a dead man’s?

Phyllis: But it’s true. It was self-defense, and that’s why I need more time. I need to find a way to clear my name. Kyle, please. [ Gasping ] For my family, my life. I mean, it’s in your hands right now. Hey, dad. I got an a on my book report.

Kyle: How do you plan to clear your name? And how do you expect to stay hidden? Because the gcac isn’t exactly in the middle of nowhere.

Phyllis: Hey, listen, it wasn’t the smartest thing to do, but I couldn’t stay away. Um… I couldn’t be away from my babies, so…

[ Phyllis sighs ] You know the idea that– that daniel is just on another floor, and– and that, you know, summer might come here to have a meal at the restaurant, it just– it gave me comfort.

Summer: Kyle, I can’t lose my mom again. I know that you understand how that feels.

Phyllis: Hey, um… let’s look at this, um, rationally.

Kyle: Rational? You?

Phyllis: You remember when your mother came back, right? Back from the dead? And you were so angry at her. Like you are at me right now. And it took some time, kyle, but you forgave her, and the two of you have built this amazing relationship, and, oh, my gosh, it’s so beautiful to watch. It truly is. And all I’m asking for is just time.

Kyle: No, it’s totally different.

Phyllis: How’s it different? Uh, well, I mean, your mom was gone for years and years, so, in that sense, yeah, ’cause, for me, it’s just been A… but these are the similarities. Your mother was unhappy and the idea of a brand new life seemed very, very appealing and I completely understand that. But we couldn’t be away from our babies, so we had to come back. And you see, that is the same. You see that, right?

[ Chuckles ] Kyle, I need time.

Kyle: No.

Phyllis: I will make this right, I just–

Kyle: No, no, no. Stop. Stop. I watched summer cry herself to sleep. I watched her retreat into her grief to a point I didn’t know if she could ever return. You did that. And then you magically reappear with all your tears and your victimhood and your apologies, and you expect summer to risk it all to help you avoid a punishment you deserve.

Phyllis: I would never put my daughter in harm’s way.

Kyle: It has already happened. I feel guilty even being in this room. It makes us all complicit. And you don’t even give a damn because all you think about is yourself.

Phyllis: That’s not true.

Kyle: Hmm? Aiding and abetting. Obstruction of justice. Collusion. We could all go to jail for being in this room, and then what happens to harrison? Have either of you thought about that?

Nikki: It’s late, is everything all right? Is faith home?

Sharon: Uh, yeah, she’s upstairs asleep, hopefully.

Victor: So, what is going on?

Nick: It’s cameron kirsten.

Nikki: What about him?

Sharon: He’s back in genoa city.

Nikki: What?

Victor: They let that slimeball out of prison?

Nick: Yeah. He’s definitely here.

Nikki: Oh, no!

Sharon: For a few weeks now I’ve been receiving these mysterious gifts. Um, a champagne bottle that apparently has blood on it, uh, a postcard from denver, colorado, and then a cigar box with a matchbook inside from the southside hotel, and that was delivered here despite security.

Victor: But have you seen him?

Sharon: Yes. Tonight at the coffeehouse, nick was helping me close up. Mostly he just taunted us and then he left, but the scary thing is, he approached faith when she was in chancellor park and pretended to be an old friend.

Victor: Have you called the cops?

Nick: Yeah. We brought chance in on this. He, uh– he told us what cameron’s been up to. Apparently, he got out of prison, moved out to la. He got a new girlfriend, one that looks eerily similar to sharon. He then beat her up, ended up back in prison, did more time, but now he’s out again. Back to playing his old sick mind games.

Sharon: Chance has the police looking for cameron, but so far, nothing.

Nikki: Maybe we should put additional guards at the gate and a patrol around the perimeter?

Victor: That’ll be done before we get back to the house. This is unbelievable.

Nikki: Well, I would feel much more comfortable if sharon and faith stayed at our house for the night.

Sharon: Oh, that is so nice of you. Thank you. That’s really up to faith. She can be a little bit stubborn, but thank you so much for the offer.

Victor: I promise you, I’ll do everything I can to keep you safe, okay? Join me in the

“The young and the restless” will continue.

Summer: No, I– I wouldn’t do anything to hurt harrison ever.

Kyle: No, no, no, it has already happened. If this goes on any longer and the cops catch you, how do we explain mommy’s in jail?

> Summer: It’s not fair!

Kyle: It’s the reality, summer.

Summer: Kyle, we get it. My mom has made huge mistakes. I know. And she’s willing to accept the consequences, but she deserves a fighting chance. Kyle, if we don’t help her find a way to clear her of killing stark, then she’s gonna be at the mercy of christine, and that’s not justice!

Kyle: Maybe she should have thought about the consequences before she framed my mother for murder, killed stark, dragged you into this mess. I will never forgive you for this.

Phyllis: Kyle, I’m gonna make this right. I swear to you. I swear to you, I’m gonna make this right. I just need time, just a little bit of time, and only you can give that to me.

Kyle: Oh, you are relentless.

Summer: Please. Kyle, please.

Kyle: No cops… for now.

[ Summer sighs ]

Phyllis: Okay, uh, go. Go ahead.

[ Daniel whistles sharply ]

Daniel: Not what you had planned, huh?

Phyllis: [ Chuckles ] No. Not at all.

Jack: You know I love summer and I would like nothing more than to see her stand up for you, but I– I don’t think she will accept and I don’t want to see you get your feelings hurt.

Diane: Well, I have to at least try. Just like I have been trying with her.

Jack: I know, I know.

Diane: [ Chuckles ] Okay, so when you asked me to marry you at the cabin, I kind of– kind of had a little day dream about what our wedding day would look like.

Jack: Uh-huh.

Diane: And that included having summer accept me as part of her family. And I’m not ready to give up on that. I have my life back, jack, and I want to do what my heart says is right. And that includes being there for summer.

Jack: And I say, by all means, follow your heart.

Diane: You know what else my heart is saying?

Jack: No, what?

Diane: That it’s time to go home and make love to my husband-to-be.

Jack: I like that idea. In fact, I wish that had been my idea.

[ Diane chuckles ]

Ashley: I gotta tell you, it’s kind of strange that you’re so laser-focused on getting married.

Tucker: Hmm. I just– I want… validation. Affirmation of… I want the ring on my finger also to– to say to the world, “ladies, I’m spoken for. I am out of circulation.”

Ashley: Oh, that ring really stopped you from circulating before, didn’t it?

Tucker: Yeah, I know. I know what it’s like to lose you now so I’m not gonna let that happen. And when you set the date, I’ll know you’re finally ready to let me into your life, and when you say the vows, they’ll come from your heart, and they will be forever.

Ashley: Hmm. Well, then. You think you know me so well.

Tucker: I do know you so well. You wanna know the kicker? Not only will marrying you be a dream come true for me, but it will give me the legal maneuverability to take over jabot. Totally throw jack and diane off their game. If you had a bladder accident today,

Phyllis: How you doing? Really?

Daniel: [ Laughs ] You know, kyle just tore out of here, he might be ready to set a match to your future, and you’re worried about me?

Phyllis: Well, of course I’m worried about you. I’m a mom, that’s what we do, we worry, all the time.

[ Laughs nervously] I’m a mom, even though you think that I am a vindictive psychopath most of the time.

[ Daniel laughs ]

Daniel: You know, when I saw you on the floor at the gala, when stark said that the two of you were married, I– you know I attacked the guy, right?

[ Phyllis chuckles ] I hated myself, because of all the things that were left unsaid between the two of us, and I– I hated the world because you weren’t in it anymore. But you were. You were there. You were there at your memorial and you saw me in pain, you saw me grieving, and you just– you just let me feel that.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Um… I did. And I’m sorry. I’m lucky you’re talking to me. I know that. And I know I put you through pain– it kills me. But I’ll let you talk about it as long as you want, even if it takes years.

Daniel: You know I love you, mom. And I’m so glad that you’re back, but forgiving you? I can’t believe that you would do the things you did to your own children.

[ Door slamming ]

Summer: That was a shock, right? Seeing my mom like that?

Kyle: You didn’t seem shocked.

Summer: I don’t understand.

Kyle: You came face to face for the first time with the mother you mourned for months and you were so calm. You were rational. Might sound crazy, but it’s almost as if you were more surprised to see me than phyllis.

Summer: That does sound crazy.

Kyle: Yeah? Because I’m pretty sure that wasn’t the first time you’d seen phyllis, was it? How long have you known phyllis was alive?

Victor: I want security outside this door 24/7, patrolling the perimeter of the ranch at all times. Clear? Thank you.

Sharon: Thank you so much, victor.

Nick: I talked to your head of security. They’ve got an entire team tracking cameron’s whereabouts. Hopefully, they hear something soon.

Victor: Sometimes I’ve the feeling that our security is more effective than the cops are.

Nick: That is exactly what I’m counting on.

Victor: How’s faith?

Nikki: Well, sharon, you were right. She wouldn’t budge. When I asked her to sleep up at the main house tonight, she said nobody is going to scare her out of her own home.

Nick: That’s my girl. As stubborn as her grandpa.

Nikki: Well, I guess if a guard is here, I can live with that.

Victor: Yes. It’s all taken care of, okay?

Sharon: Thank you so much, victor. I really do feel a lot better just knowing that we are actively doing something to protect faith and to find cameron.

Victor: Sharon, I want you and faith to get some sleep now. I will make certain that someone is watching this house at all times, all right?

[ Nick sighs ]

[ Door creaks open]

[ Bag rustling ] Somedays, I cover up because of my moderate

Phyllis: Well, I will tell you something. Um… I don’t really understand… why I do some of the things I do myself. I do know that I hurt the two people that I love most in the world… and I put myself in my own personal hell, you know?

Daniel: [ Chuckles ] Yeah, you kind of dragged us along with you.

Phyllis: And I’m gonna make it up to you. I just can’t do it in a prison cell. I can’t go to prison. Daniel, I can’t go. I can’t go. But I am done running. I will never run again, and I will never, ever be separated from my family again. Do you understand? Do you believe me?

[ Door clicks open ]

Kyle: Well?

Summer: Kyle, I don’t know what you’re talking–

[ Jack and diane chattering ]

Jack: Oh. Hi, there.

Kyle: Hi.

Diane: Hi. Uh, gosh, summer, I know this must be hard for you, watching us celebrate my freedom when your mother is out there somewhere, and I’m– I’m sure you’re really worried about her. But I have a feeling everything will work out for phyllis. She’ll come back, she’ll get the support she needs for whatever’s ahead, and she should. For you and daniel. And I’m– I’m just so glad that you have kyle to lean on, because as long as you continue to keep letting each other in, love and trust can move mountains.

Jack: That is absolutely true.

Diane: Yeah.

[ Door clicks open ]

[ Ashley and tucker laughing ]

Ashley: Oh, this is fantastic, you’re all here!

Tucker: Hey!

Jack: Uh, we were just headed up.

Ashley: Oh, no, no, no, no. Please just stay for a second.

Jack: You know what, it– it’s kinda late–

Tucker: No, no, no, no, it’s– it’s not too late because we have to celebrate. We have to toast to the fact that this– this miracle of a woman has decided to marry me yet again!

Ashley: [ Cheering ] Yay!

Tucker: And as soon as humanly possible.

Ashley: Ooh, okay. Mm. Mm. Mm.

Tucker: Yeah.

Sharon: Hey, whatever happened to the tea you were gonna make me?

Nick: I’ll do it right now.

Sharon: No, no, I’m– I’m just kidding. Really, all I want is to just tuck myself in bed.

Nick: I don’t know how you can be so calm, I mean, just knowing cameron’s out there is making my skin crawl.

Sharon: Well, I just keep telling myself that we can handle this, you know? We know him, we know he’s dangerous, diabolical, we know he’s not afraid of going back to prison. And we have got victor’s entire security team and the police on our side. He doesn’t stand a chance.

[ Phone pinging ] What is it?

Nick: It’s from my dad. One of his security team was found tied up, drugged, and stuffed into a closet at newman tower.

Sharon: Oh, no.

Nick: And his uniform was missing.

[ Unzipping ]

[ Sighing ]

[ Clothes rustling ]
