THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Knock on door ] Hey, michael. Hey. I wasn’t expecting to see you today. Well, it’s kind of a last-minute kind of thing. Well, must be important if you decided to come all the way down here instead of call me. Is that a problem? No, no, just — just, uh, unusual. Well, you know, maybe I’m trying to be a little more spontaneous in my old age. So, uh… what brings you here? Well, I know I shouldn’t be asking this, but… I need a favor that only you can do for me. Hey, anna. Hi. Oh, there you are. Hello. Appreciate you meeting me. Yeah. Sure. Yeah. I have to say, I was a bit surprised by the invite. You know, I’ve been looking out for you since the shooting at the metro court. Yeah. I appreciate that. I’m being very cautious. I — one eye over my shoulder, because apparently, I’ve got a target on my back now. Has anything happened? Like threats or anything like that? No. That’s good — good to hear. Is that why you asked to see me? Because you want to check up on me? No. I just want to let you know that I’m gonna be gone for a few days. If you need anything — and I mean anything — you know, I’m just a phone call away. I cannot remember how long it’s been since you have visited me at my office. This must be really important. What did I do to deserve this visit? It’s not what you’ve done. It’s what you’re gonna do. You see, typically when someone wants me to do a favor for them, they ask me nicely and say, “please.” What do you need? Put this paper to good use… and save a man’s life. Just tell me when and where, and I’m there. That’s my girl. I’m actually really excited about it. Yeah. And after everything you’ve done for me lately, how could I possibly say no? Thank you. Uh… I know I could always count on you. Wow. Well, that is not something I hear every day, and it’s so nice. Hey, diane, can, uh, you give me a call? I just want some kind of an update on when they plan on taking drew back to pentonville.

[ Knock on door ] Um…I-I just need to know. Thanks. Hey. Hey, carly. Um, I know this must be difficult for you. I mean, nobody wants drew to go back to prison. I mean, I keep hoping diane’s gonna call and tell me that she’s figured out some kind of loophole to stop drew from going back there, but… and you know that we’re looking into the judge to see if we can find some kind of bias, but that seems to be a long shot. So, I don’t know. Yeah, she’s doing everything she can. There’s nobody more tenacious than diane. The girls are in school. You know that. So, you must be here to see me. You guessed right. Okay. Please tell me this isn’t bad news. Please. Well, it — it kind of depends on your perspective. That’s cryptic. What’s going on? Uh, nina and i are eloping.

[ Knock on door ] Hi. I, uh, came by to see if things were any better with charlotte. Nina, come in. Oh, this place, valentin, is so beautiful. Charlotte must be so thrilled to finally be in her own home with her dad. What’s wrong? What happened? Who’s the suit? Oh, it’s a gift from sonny. Can you send it back? No. Well, tell me, where does sonny get off sending a goon over here to keep an eye on you? He has a very caring side. Yeah, so did attila the hun. He was worried about me, and he wanted to offer me protection, uh, which I refused, first of all, but I didn’t think I needed it. And now you do? I changed my mind. Did something happen? What? Other than the recent disturbing events? No. And nothing has happened in the last 24 hours since I’ve had protection. And, so you’re living in the metro court? Yeah. Until I move into the new place. Valentin has bought a house for us. Uh, w-wait. When did you go house hunting? I didn’T. He bought the house on his own. Heh. Eh, well, he could have at least made you part of the process.

[ Chuckles ] Unless, of course, you think he’s hiding something. He’s always hiding something. But the house isn’t part of that. You know, this was really meant to be a surprise. Mm. And he is nothing if not full of those.

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, he certainly is. How’d it go with sonny? How did you know he was — you know, esme has to quit sharing every visitor that comes into my office. And it’s not that I have anything to hide. It’s just she needs to learn a little discretion. Esme is not to blame. When a notorious coffee importer shows up here, people tend to talk, and usually in hushed tones. Sonny’s good fodder for the water cooler. Mm-hmm. Well, they’re gonna be very disappointed because he just came to ask for a favor. Nothing illegal, I hope. Mnh-mnh. He wanted to see if “the invader” could help leverage judge albert kim. Eh, he’s the judge that sentenced drew cain to three years in pentonville. What outcome is sonny hoping for? Carly thinks the judge’s sentence was unnecessarily harsh, and we’re hoping maybe we could get the sentence reduced or at the very least, have him moved to a safer facility. Just how does sonny suggest you do that? That’s what we have to figure out. Wow. Eloping, huh? What happened to the big blowout wedding you were planning? Well, I wasn’t planning the wedding. I just told nina she could do whatever she wants with the wedding. I know olivia was helping. Was that tough for you? No. I’m a big girl, you know? Olivia can do what she wants, and we’re too close for something like that to bother me. Well, there’s just so many details, and, you know, things like that. A w-wedding should be about a celebration, not a deadline. Just surprising considering all the noise nina was making about, you know, her big wedding celebration. Well, you know what? Uh, we’re just going to fly down to the island. It’s not gonna be a big deal. It’s gonna be a small ceremony. It’s just, uh… me and nina and whatever kids are — are able to go. Kids. That’s why you’re here? Well, I-I would love if donna could go. It would, you know, mean everything, if you’re okay with that.

Nina, I’m lost. I am just totally lost. Charlotte and i used to be so close, and now I feel like I don’t even know her. Yeah. I know. This must be so difficult for you. Not just me. She’s gonna need professional help. I’ve been trying to find her a therapist. Well, it might take you a while to find someone because she’s in a very serious situation, valentin. You’re gonna have to find the doctor who’s the right fit. I’ve always been able to talk to you, haven’t I? I mean, no matter how raw it gets, you understand me, don’t you? Better than anybody. Probably even anna. I don’t know how it got this way. I mean, this is my little girl we’re talking about. We are going to figure this out, okay? Together. Where is charlotte now? She’s on a bike ride. That’s why I’m doing research and making phone calls. So, you haven’t said anything to her? No, I-I-I just don’t know what I would say if she lied to me, if she denied it. I mean, I don’t know how I would react. Why is this happening? Did I do something to make her act out like this? You told dad what? I explained that I couldn’t go to the wedding, but I’d go to the next one. Okay, that’s not even funny, dante. I’m just kidding. So, you are gonna go? You didn’t turn him down? No, I’m not kidding about that part. I’m telling the truth about that part. I don’t — you have to come. Seriously. Dad asked you to be his best man, didn’t he? Uh, yeah, he did, and I’m honored. I just — I-I can’t go away right now. Right. No, I — that I do get, ’cause the pcpd softball team — I’m sure they really need their star pitcher. Ha-ha-ha. Very funny. Yeah, they probably do, but, no, I just got a lot of stuff going on here. Well, what stuff is more important than dad’s wedding? Charlotte was living with us, now she’s moved out. Uh, scout’s father, drew — we’re dealing with the fact that he’s behind bars. It’s been tough on her. I mean, my job is — look, you seem more annoyed than sonny did. He — he took this a lot better than you. I-I just think you should come, and I-I think it’s important that we be there to support dad. I agree. But dad knows I support him. We’ve had our ups and downs. He knows — he knows I’m behind him and nina’s relationship. Alright. Well, nothing can keep me away. Well, that’s good. You’ll be representing. I don’t think I’ll be the only one, actually. Oh. Dad asked michael to come. Really? Yeah. Well, that’s big, considering the place they’re in. What did michael say? Excuse me. How can I help you? I’m looking for my wife, willow corinthos. She’s a nurse here. Um, I think she’s still on break, but let me check for you. Okay, thank you. I’ll wait here.

[ Exhales sharply ] I wanted to tell you in person. Well, usually when somebody says that, it’s not good news. Well, it’s good news for me, at least. Nina and I are eloping. We’re going down to the island. Oh. Um… well, I-I guess congratulations are in order. Michael, I know times have been tough this past year, but I think we’ve moved past that, haven’t we? Yeah, I mean, everything that happened to willow helped me realize how important family is. Yeah, but nina is your family, so, I mean… I know there’s been a strain between you two, but — yeah, that’s an understatement. But she’S… …she’s tried to really make an effort between you and willow, and nothing would make her happier than spending time with amelia and wiley. Look, I-I have to admit, things have been better with nina. You know, she– she’s trying to respect our boundaries. Nothing would mean more to nina than to have willow at that wedding, and it would mean a lot to me to have you there. So, is there any chance that… you’ll go? This is not your fault. I-I-I wish I had the answers. She is a teenage girl, and teenage girls can be very complicated. This is the cassadine curse, isn’t it? None of this godforsaken family gets to be happy. Please, valentin, do not go there. This is — has nothing to do with a curse, okay? You and charlotte are not doomed. She’s an adolescent who got herself into trouble. She’s struggling, but we will get her help. So overwhelming.

[ Sighs ] I’m sure anna’s been supportive. What does she think? I haven’t told her. I mean, how am I going to tell her that my daughter is the one who’s been tormenting her? You know, if charlotte’s the one who set the fire, she’s going to be facing very serious criminal charges. Mm. Well, we just have to be very grateful that no one was in the house. I mean, if charlotte did do this, she made sure of that. Is that supposed to make me feel better? I’m — I’m just making the point, valentin. She’s not trying to hurt anna. She’s not a murderer. She’s just crying out for help. No, it’s more than that. She’s terrorizing the woman that I love, and I’m trying to keep that from escalating, but am I doing the wrong thing by not telling anna? Y-you know how much donna loves weddings. Of course she can go. Thank you. Because you know how happy she was at michael’s wedding. Yeah. Hopefully both girls can go. Well, that’s the plan. Have you talked to ava? Because avery wouldn’t want to miss it. I called ava. She hasn’t, uh, gotten back to me yet, but I hope there’s no problem there, because it would not be the same without avery. Well, it looks like you thought of everything for your tropical ceremony. Well, you know, um… I’m trying, you know? I think I covered all the bases. Oh, no, wait. That favor that you asked for drew? I’m working on it. Well, let’s hope it comes in time to save drew. Are you sure you want to get into this? I mean, I’ve heard a lot of stories about people who do sonny’s bidding, and sometimes, it doesn’t end well. You think? I’m very well aware of the “methods” sonny uses to handle things. This time, he would like it handled legitimately. Are you sure you and sonny don’t share any similarities? Why, I think I am offended, professor chase. No. I-I don’t know sonny well, but from what I hear, he has a reputation for ruthlessness. I know firsthand how ruthless you can be when it comes to the pursuit of truth in journalism. Really? Do go on. I’m just saying that y-you’re a force of nature when it comes to business, and that’s — that’s a good thing, by the way. This is really very entertaining, watching you try to dig yourself out of the hole you just dug yourself into. Trying to compliment me after you call me ruthless? That is some fancy footwork. Well, unfortunately, that’s the only footwork I’m still capable of these days.

I know that he wants to make peace with dad. There’s definitely been a lot less tension lately. Yeah, but that’s a far cry from michael attending the wedding. But, you know, they have to start somewhere if they want to get back to where they were. Well, I don’t know if they’ll ever get back to where they were, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction. So, is michael going to the wedding or not? I don’t know. I hope so. But I’ll tell you one thing — I am not excited to be on an island with him and nina for the next few days. Wait, I thought you were team nina? I am. I like nina. A lot. Most importantly, dad loves her, but I haven’t forgotten what she did to michael and willow. That’s some serious damage, and we both know how our brother holds a grudge. Yeah, kind of just like dad. Dad. Yeah. Hey, blaze. Hey, kristina. Hi. Oh, this is my brother, dante. We meet again. Michael: I cannot give you an answer right now until I talk to willow first. I get it. I-I just hope that willow does this for nina, because the — the ceremony wouldn’t be the same without wiley there, right? She wants wiley to be the ring bearer, like he was at your wedding, because he’s — he’s — he’s a pro now. Yeah, yeah. Um… it’s just, uh, willow has a lot going on right now and she — she just got back to work. Uh… I’m not sure she’s gonna want to drop all that and — and get on a plane. Okay, I just — I just want you to think about it. Michael, I heard you were looking for me. Is everything alright? Did something happen with the kids? I just don’t know what to do. We can’t involve the police. No, no, valentin, we are not bringing the police into this. She’s a — she’s a teenager. She’s 15 years old. Okay? If — if — if she did do this and the police find out, they will send her away. No, you cannot let that happen. We’re just gonna — we’re gonna have to handle this ourselves. And how are we gonna do that? We’re gonna find another way to get through to charlotte. Hey. We’re not giving up on her.

[ Chuckles ] You know, I’ve always appreciated your support. Well, even though we went our separate ways, valentin, I will always care about you and charlotte. I love her.

[ Voice breaking ] I don’t know what I’d do without your help. Yeah, about that. Um… well, you’re gonna have to deal with this on your own. That’s why I came by, to tell you. I’m leaving town. So, I think valentin feels that this house is a way for him to focus on his daughter. You know, charlotte, he feels, needs a more stable environment. She’s had a very tough year. Weren’t you telling me that victor is keeping her at a boarding school? Right, and then when she did finally come home, she’s been bouncing from house to house. First it was laura’s, and then it was sam and dante. That’s not to say that they weren’t there for her, but, you know, very supportive, but she’s 15, and along with that age comes anxiety and insecurity. Yeah. Mac was having a problem with robin like that. Charlotte needs her father’s undivided attention. I totally understand that, you know? I think maybe valentin feels providing a house for her is the first step in putting her on more solili meantime, you’re roughing it in a hotel. Well, god, I mean, I don’t call room service roughing it. I thought you didn’t want me with valentin. I don’T. However, you should have the final choice on where you live. Okay, so, why don’t we just agree to disagree when it comes to the subject of my relationship with valentin? Okay. So, I asked you here because I need your help. With? Something crucial.

Uh, I paid alexis a visit and suggested she look into the matter for us. You suggested? Well, I got — you know, pretty much politely demanded, is more of a way of saying it. I told her she needs to use that paper and her investigation skills to look into judge kim, because we have to figure out why he gave drew such a harsh sentence. Sonny, we need to do more than look into judge kim. We’ve got to get the judge to commute drew’s sentence or send him to a safer facility. I mean, does alexis understand that? Okay, alexis knows that the goal is to get drew out of pentonville, but it’s not gonna happen overnight. First thing she needs to do is a deep dive into kim’s record. We have to figure out what makes him vulnerable, and then we have an opening. You think alexis is gonna come through? I am confident that she’ll deliver for us. Sorry. That was meant to be a joke, but clearly it didn’t land. You have every right to handle your disease any way you see fit, and if you want to joke about it, joke about it. Go for it. You don’t have to edit your words with me. I’m gonna follow your lead. I feel like I’m constantly thanking you for being understanding, but thank you again. You don’t need to keep thanking me or apologizing. Well, what’s that quote from that movie? “Friendship means never having to say you’re sorry.” I think that’s “love means…” I just… you just don’t need to keep thanking me. I still haven’t told chase. I know you keep telling me to wait until I’m ready, but when will that be? I can’t keep hiding behind my work here, and I wake up some mornings so determined to go over there and tell him the truth, but then I find myself here instead. And I used to lecture my students about procrastination, tell them putting off that term paper won’t make it any easier. This is a little bigger than a homework assignment. Look, you’re gonna tell chase when you tell chase. I’m just being selfish. I just want more time with my son before he looks at me with pity, only sees the disease and not his father. Well, I think you’re wrong, and I don’t think he’s gonna react that way at all, but — but, you know, you’ll — you’ll do what feels right for you, and I-I’m not judging you. Speaking of judges, how are we gonna handle judge kim? Hey, good to see you again. Nice to see you, too. Oh, dante was my hero at the nurses’ ball. Oh. I don’t like to brag.

[ Chuckles ] Since when?

[ Chuckles ] Often. Mm. After brook lynn outed linc on stage, dante grabbed him and dragged him out of the metro court. Nice work, detective. Just doing my job, ma’am. Oh, that’s right. I almost forgot. My brother, the knight in shining armor.

[ Chuckles ] And don’t think I forgot how nice you were the day we ran into each other at kelly’S. Oh — oh, yeah. Wow. That was — that was a few months ago. No, we, uh — we saw blaze a-at — at kelly’s, and — and rocco had been watching her music videos. He was a big fan, and then I saw you guys at rice plaza. You guys were great, but you were so gracious to us. Thanks. Thank you.

[ Chuckles ] Well, you two are practically bffs. Who would have guessed that? No, no, everyone’s fine, okay? Sorry. I didn’t mean to worry you. Oh… well, it must be something important for you to come all the way to gh. Yeah. Look, I, uh… wanted to tell you that sonny paid me a visit earlier, and, um… apparently, he and nina are eloping in puerto rico. Okay. Uh, the last time I spoke to nina, she was knee-deep in wedding planning. It sounded like a huge event here in port charles. I guess she changed her mind. Does this mean we get out of going to the wedding?

[ Chuckles ] No, no. No such luck. Um, we’re definitely on the guest list. Sonny wants us to fly down to puerto rico. You’re leaving town? It’s just for a few days. Don’t worry. And I-I feel silly talking about it, given everything that you’re going through, but sonny and I — we’re going to puerto rico. We’re eloping. You’re — you’re eloping? Yeah. I thought you were having a big wedding at the metro court? Yeah, well, that was the plan, but it got complicated, and it was really stressful, and we just want to get married as soon as possible, and the best solution was to have a small ceremony on sonny’s island. Well, if that’s what you want, I’m happy for you. Hey. You can always call me. I’m not gonna call you. I’m not gonna interrupt your wedding. I sure don’t need sonny after me. Besides, laura’s coming back from london and we’re gonna figure out what to do with charlotte together. Papa? Are you keeping things from me?

You know I’m gonna do whatever you want, so what do you need? Alright. Let’s just look at the recent events, starting with the shooting at the pool. I think that bullet was meant for sonny, not me. He’s got his fair share of enemies. Well, so do I, but I think I’m being targeted in a completely different way. I don’t follow. Alright. After the shooting at the pool, my house was torched, and then my room here was vandalized. Now, what does that tell you? Your enemy’s toying with you. They’re trying to break you down, you know? What do you want to do about that? Charlotte? You didn’t tell me nina was coming over. I was putting my bike away, and I saw her car out front. Oh, I’m so happy to see you. Hey, come here. It’s so nice to see you. How are you? Much better now that I’m living with papa. Yeah, it’s a beautiful place. Are you settling in okay? Yeah. Everything’s perfect. Can you stay and have lunch with us? Uh — uh — no. I’m so sorry. I-I just came over to, um, tell your dad that I was leaving town for a few days. Sonny and I are going to puerto rico. Cool. I wish papa and I could take a trip with you some day. Yeah, I’m not s-sure that a-anna would be so thrilled with that. Yeah, I know, but I was just thinking how great it would be if we could go to europe. Remember, we used to always talk about doing that? That’s right. That is — that is right. Hey, how about this? Why don’t we plan a girls trip, just you and me? And you know what? Maybe I can convince maxie to allow georgie to come with us. You — you like georgie, right? Yeah. I used to see her a lot when my mom was still here, but I’d rather just go alone with you if papa can’t come with us. Yeah. It’s a deal. I love you, nina. Oh, I love you. Alexis: [ Sighs ] Looks like judge kim has a number of high-profile cases. His opinions he wrote for his decision read like bait for a promotion. Can you elaborate on that for those of us that didn’t attend law school? From what I can tell, it seems like he’s trying to impress the judicial board in hopes of a higher appointment. And how does he go about that? Yeah, when judges are trying to climb the ladder, they set new precedents, and they do that with their opinions, and what they want is for those precedents to be appealed and upheld. So, in simpler terms, it looks like judge kim is trying to get the attention from those above him, and if that’s the case, then maybe we can help him do just that. Thank you, for everything you’re doing for drew’s case. Drew’s a good man. He doesn’t deserve what’s happening to him. And, I mean, him being in prison, it affects you, and no matter what has happened between us, you’re the mother of my children. I just want you to be happy. That means a lot. So, from all the research that diane has gathered, it looks like judge kim is hoping for a promotion to the federal bench. I’m thinking he’d be more than happy to meet with the press and cooperate. Yeah, that’s — that’s — that gives alexis a way in. That’s a good strategy. Yeah. It’s all we have for now. Do me a favor. Tell drew to sit tight ’cause I’m doing everything I can behind the scenes to get him out of there. I will. Hey, did you ever find out who austin was visiting in pentonville?

means that he’ll be about lawyers.

The look on your face,I’d say you have a plan. What are you thinking? My guess is this guy has an ego. Most judges do. I hear the same about lawyers. I’m not sure who’s worse.

[ Chuckles ] But what I think is this guy is really career-oriented. He wants to get ahead, which means that he’ll be very susceptible to the lure of publicity. And that’s where you come in. We call him in for an interview. We pump him up. We tell him that we’re interested in doing an article about his decisions, take some pictures, and hopefully, he’ll eat it up. And then you go in for the kill and ask him about drew’s sentence. Hmm. Good plan of attack, counselor. Like I said, ruthless. Unfortunately, we have no information on that yet. Uh, we don’t know who’s pulling the strings when it comes to austin and mason. And trailing betty didn’t turn up anything? Well, I had dex watching her every move, thinking that she would lead us to the boss, but, uh, that didn’t happen. We — we have somebody watching austin, and my guys are, you know, doing everything they can until I get back from the wedding. That’s what you should be concentrating on right now. Yeah, I know. And look, I’m gonna have donna all packed and ready to go. Can’t wait to see her face when I tell her. Please take a couple of pictures of her for me, okay? Okay. And let me know if you hear from ava, because she can just bring avery here and you can pick both girls up at the same time. Thanks. That — that means a lot. It’s been a painful couple years. Yeah. But I just want you to be happy, too. Yeah. I feel the same way. I’ll see you. Bye.

[ Door closes ] So, I am flying down to puerto rico later today for my dad’s wedding. Ooh, a destination wedding. How exciting. Well, they’re eloping. Thank god. Dante. What? No, I’m just telling it like it is. I think they’re being smart by — by keeping it a small family ceremony. Why do you say that? Because I feel like if they had a big wedding in port charles, they’d be asking for trouble. This is where you come in. I need your help because I am almost certain that this threat is coming from inside the wsb, someone with access to the bureau’s resources. You think this is the same person who outed you for being a double agent? I don’t know. I have my suspicions. I mean, just look at the timing. Think about it. None of this started until I was exposed in the press. It — it has to be connected. It has to be. It can’t just be a coincidence. This is revenge by someone who you wronged in a past case? Well, my actions back then hurt a lot of people. They might want payback. You haven’t been an active operative in years. Does somebody hold a grudge that long? I don’t know. I just really need your help in getting some information from inside the bureau.

[ Sighs ] Well, as I’ve said, my influence in there since frisco left is rather limited, and as for this new director, whatever influence I might have is gonna be

[Chuckles] Limited at best. Limited is better than non-existent. Please, will you help me? Find out what is going on and who is after me. It was so good to see you. Hey. Do you remember our handshake? Come on. Yeah. Do it. Alright, I’m gonna have to go to the gallery ’cause I’ve been trying to get ahold of ava with no luck, so I thought I would try her there. I miss you so much, nina. Please come over after your trip. I promise. Okay, see you soon. Okay. Thanks for coming. It meant a lot to charlotte. It’s good to see her smile. We’re gonna figure this out when I get back, okay?

[ Sighs ] Have a nice trip. Fly to an intimate wedding? It would be one thing if it was 200 guests at the metro court. Then we’d be able to blend into the background. But this… yeah, it would just be family, so we’d be front and center. I mean, I know I’ve been pushing you lately to accept nina, but this is a lot. You finally made peace with your dad and nina. It’s — it’s so new. Yeah, so do we really want to put it to the test? Charlotte… what happened to you?

[ Exhales sharply ]

[ Cellphone rings ] Hey. How’s my bride to be? I’m okay. You don’t sound okay. What’s wrong? It’s just — it’s been an emotional day.

[ Clears throat ] Where are you? Uh, I’ve been all over town doing things, but I’m finished now. I’m all yours.

[ Chuckles ] Well, that’s all I’ve ever wanted. Well, you better get packing. We’re getting married.

[ Chuckles ] Yes, we are.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Relaxing music ]

Hope: I’m, uh… I’m sorry to get emotional.

Finn: Oh, hey, there’s nothing to apologize for.

Hope: Well, I appreciate it. It’s been, uh… it’s been hard just trying to keep my head above water and… with that being said, hey, I didn’t mean to get into everything here.

Finn: No, hey, I totally understand. Look, Steffy, she went through the exact same thing. I think that’s one of the reasons you allowed yourself to turn to Thomas. It’s because he is totally committed to you, and only you. But, like I said, I think you can do better than Thomas.

[ Deacon laughing ]

Sheila: Are we really engaged?

Deacon: Yeah, well, you made me work for it before you said yes. There we go. All right. Breakfast of champions.

Sheila: Mm…

Deacon: Oops.

Sheila: You got that?

Deacon: All right. Yup. Cheers.

Sheila: Cheers.

Deacon: Mm. Mmm!

Sheila: Mm. Mmm!

Deacon: That’s good.

Sheila: You know why I didn’t say yes immediately.

Deacon: Yeah, ’cause you were worried about my relationship with Hope.

Ridge: This showdown is gonna stay intimate. Just a few select buyers that won’t know that this is a competition. Dad and I, we’re gonna roll out just a handful of new designs, and whoever sells the most wins, and that line goes into production. Easy peasy.

Carter: Yes, easy peasy. Sounds very thorough. You see this?

Ridge: The diamonds?

Carter: Mm-hmm.

Eric: Well, you got my order, huh?

Ridge: Yeah. You don’t think you’re going overboard a little?

Eric: Donna, look. You see that look in his eyes?

Donna: Mm-hmm.

Eric: He’s picturing all of his designs, wondering if any of them could possibly compete with my opulence.

Ridge: Or maybe, you see, he’s picturing how jewel tones will destroy classic opulence–

Eric: You know, classic never goes out of style.

Donna: You should know.

Eric: Thank you, darling. See? She understands. Look, when I come out on top, you will have learned your lesson. That nothing and no one can hold back Eric Forrester.

Luna: I, um… I don’t think that line can get any darker. What’s going on?

RJ: Nothing.

Luna: It’s your grandfather, isn’t it?

RJ: Yeah. I spoke to my Aunt Donna, and she says, uh… the situation with my granddad is a lot worse than I thought.

Luna: Look, I don’t mean to pry, and you don’t have to tell me anything you don’t want to.

RJ: No. No, no, it’s not that, it’s– come on, I meant it when I told you that I trusted you. I do, okay? It’s just this is– this is a lot. My granddad’s doctor says that it’s cerebrovascular disease or TIA’s. Mini strokes.

Luna: I’m so sorry. Does anyone else know?

Eric: You, uh, you think you’re gonna be ready?

Ridge: Oh, I know I’m gonna be ready.

Carter: Here we go.

Donna: Uh-huh.

Eric: Jewel tones. That’s an interesting choice.

Ridge: He’s not gonna get in my head.

Eric: I’m not trying to get into your head. It’s just jewel– I said jewel tones are an interesting choice.

Ridge: Yes, says the man who can’t design anything without French lace.

Carter: It’s like they’re the same person.

Donna: Seriously.

Eric: French lace is wonderful. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Ridge: Exactly. Don’t fix it. The hands of the master.

Eric: There you are.

[ Carter laughs ]

[ Donna laughs ]

Sheila: What do you think? Should we save this cork?

[ Deacon chuckles ]

Sheila: What?

Deacon: No, I just I didn’t peg you for a sentimentalist.

Sheila: Okay, forget it.

Deacon: No! Hey, hey! Oh, you almost made it. Uh, no, look, it’s a good thing, you know? Um, chalk it up to the new you.

Sheila: You know, it really means a lot to me that you really believe I’m a changed woman. I just… I want Finn to see that too. I want him to believe it.

Finn: I don’t know where things are with you and Thomas, and I’m not asking, but look, I do know that he’s done a lot of messed up things to you in the past. And maybe Ridge and Taylor and Steffy, maybe they’re all right, you know? Maybe Thomas has changed. Maybe he’s new and reformed, and that would be wonderful. But it doesn’t change the fact that you are an incredible person who deserves better than Thomas.

Eric: This never gets old, being back in my office again.

Ridge: Well, why don’t you sit down, relax, take the weight off. Enjoy yourself.

Eric: Oh, I will. After I beat you in the fashion challenge and take back what’s rightfully mine, never to relinquish it again. So, Carter, you’ll make sure that those orders go through?

Carter: Already approved.

Eric: Good.

Donna: Honey Bear, um, we should probably get home if you want to make that meeting.

Eric: Yeah. Yeah, thanks. Time’s running out, Ridge.

Luna: So, Eric hasn’t gotten, like, an official diagnosis yet?

RJ: Donna says they still need to run more tests, but I went online and I looked up possibilities, which you should never do, but I did. And, uh, it’s not good. My granddad’s situation’s a lot worse than when he told me it was just arthritis.

Luna: You know, staying positive can do wonders. I really believe that. For both your mental and physical health.

RJ: I’m trying to.

Luna: I– I mean, for your– for your grandfather. I think he’s got the best setup for it. You know, with– with Donna, she’s always so cheery and loving with him, and you helping him with his collection. You’re keeping him excited and motivated about the future. He’s so lucky to have you, RJ.

Sheila: I’m just saying, maybe this engagement will help Finn to see that I’m not unlovable.

Deacon: Wait a second. You didn’t accept my proposal so that–

Sheila: No, daddy.

Deacon: All right.

Sheila: No, I didn’t. These are two separate things.

Deacon: Okay, just checking. Making sure.

Sheila: But really, it… it might help him see that I am loveable. I do want a second chance with him. I don’t want him to think that I’m the monster that Steffy and the Forresters make me out to be.

Deacon: Okay, well, then, as your fiancé, I vow to do everything I can to make that happen.

Finn: All I’m saying is I think whatever you see in Thomas is because you’ve been deprived of a man who is thoroughly and totally committed to you.

Hope: Okay, well, reality check appreciated.

[ Both chuckling ]

Hope: Uh, but I do think if we are being honest here with each other, I mean, those divided feelings, that cycle that I’ve talked about being a part of for so long. I mean, like you said, Steffy has felt that way too, and she’s always going to have that tie to Liam, um… and I’m not– I’m not saying that you guys are having troubles. Steffy’s smart, and she is insightful. And I cannot imagine her taking your love and your commitment for granted.

Hope: Well, I– I guess I have to thank Kelly for losing her pillow ’cause, uh, this is actually– it’s been nice talking to you. Refreshing. I feel like you understand what I’m going through.

Finn: You’re gonna be all right. You are all right. And you are a strong, compassionate, incredible, beautiful person. And working through this, it’s gonna take some time and energy and it’s emotionally draining, but once you’re on the other side of it, you’re not gonna be sorry. Hey, and at least you already know your own worth. You do. You deserve a man’s whole heart. And he’s out there, Hope. It’s just not Thomas.

Carter: What?

Ridge: What? Here I was so worried about my dad and it seems like it was all for nothing.

Carter: What do you mean?

Ridge: What do you mean what do I mean? You saw him. He’s doing great. He’s at the top of his game.

Donna: Here, let me help. Here, let me help you, please. It’s okay. Here.

Eric: “The hands of a master.” [ Chuckles ] Thank you.

Donna: You’re welcome. That’s okay.

[ Eric grunting ]

Donna: These hands of yours belong right here, okay?

[ Eric chuckling ]

Donna: Right here. We’re gonna get you help, okay? We can get the best doctors in L.A., And, um, nothing is gonna hold you back.

Eric: No, nothing will. Nothing’s gonna keep me from creating this crowning achievement of my career. Nothing.

[ Eric coughing ]

Donna: Are–

[ Eric exhales sharply ]

Eric: It’s all right. It’s nothing. It’s nothing.

[ Both chuckling ]

Eric: I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Here, come here. Come here. Come here.

Luna: It’s obviously weighing on you, your grandfather’s condition. I mean, whatever it ends up being. And the fact that he asked you to keep it from everyone? I mean, carrying a big secret like this is a real burden. I know how it feels.

RJ: What are you? You CIA? Are you deep cover? Is that it? Is that what this all is?

Luna: Oh, my god. [Laughs] No, I just– I just gotta say how lucky I feel. I mean, getting this internship? It’s always been my dream to work at Forrester. I never thought I’d be working here, let alone be helping Eric Forrester! I mean, what? I’m just really grateful for this opportunity. And especially getting to work with you and getting to know you better.

Finn: Hey, Deacon.

Deacon: Finn. Thanks for coming.

Finn: Uh, yeah. I got your text. What’s– what’s up?

Deacon: It’s about Steffy.

Finn: It’s about Steff– what’s– I’m all ears.

Donna: You know, I can’t believe how free and easy you were with Ridge earlier. I mean, here I am trying to cancel this whole stupid competition. You know, relax with you, enjoy ourselves, and you’re– you’re joking with your son.

Eric: Yeah.

Donna: Telling him that time is running out.

Eric: Uh-huh, uh-huh.

Donna: Eric, what kind of dark humor is that?

Eric: Donna, I’m gonna live ’til I die, all right? And I’m gonna enjoy every moment of it, and I think laughter is a much better way to live all of the years and days that I have left. I’m gonna laugh when– when I get the company back from Ridge, and– and I’m gonna laugh when I prove my relevance to him again. And I can only do this because of you… and how much you love me. I love you, too.

Donna: I love you so much.

Eric: Come here. Come here.

[ Phone chiming ]

Luna: One of your millions of followers?

RJ: Hey, there’s only one I’m interested in talking to right now. It’s receiving and they need a couple signatures, so I’ll be right back, okay? Hey, I, um, I wanna say thank you for what you said to me earlier. It means a lot to me. I hope you know that. I’m happy you’re here at Forrester, too.

[ Phone ringing ]

Luna: It’s not a good time.

Woman: When is it a good time? You haven’t been answering my calls.

Luna: Yeah, because I’m busy, Mom. I’m sure this could’ve been a text.

Mother: You have to leave right away. Come home. You can’t be in Los Angeles. I know what you’re doing.

Luna: I’m– I’m– I’m not doing anything.

Mother: You definitely can’t be at Forrester Creations!

Luna: I’m– I’m not.

Mother: It’s on the company website! “Welcome new interns!” You get why you can’t do this. How my sister will react? With Finn? You know your Aunt Li will let you have it.

Luna: I don’t care, Mom.

Mother: And what about Finn?

Luna: I mean, I told you. I’m following my dreams.

Mother: It is only a matter of time before you’re found out. It’ll all come to a crashing halt.

Luna: I gotta go.

RJ: Hey, told you it wouldn’t take long. What’s– what’s going on? What’s wrong?

Finn: You deserve a man’s whole heart. And he’s out there, Hope. It’s just not Thomas.

Finn: You called me over here about Steffy?

Deacon: Yeah. Uh, I know that she took the kids and she went to Europe.

Finn: Yeah, because of Sheila. I mean, she doesn’t feel safe here with Sheila on the loose.

Deacon: Well, that’s completely understandable given what happened in the alley.

Finn: Look, you have no idea how badly I want my wife and the kids to come back, so if you know something, Deacon, if you know something about Sheila, if you know–

Deacon: I do. I do.

Finn: Then tell me. I– I– I need to get my wife back.

Deacon: Finn, what if I told you that I could help the situation? What if I told you that I could ensure that Sheila would never be an issue, not for you, not for Steffy? I– know, I know. She’s a free woman, but she’s not gonna harm anyone.

Finn: What are you talking about?

Deacon: I think you have a pretty good idea about my checkered past. I’ve made a lot of mistakes, big ones, and I wound up incarcerated. But you know what? I turned my life around. I mean, look at this place look at it. It’s– it’s a huge success.

Finn: That’s great. What’s does that have to do with Steffy?

Sheila: Hi, baby.

Deacon: I told you I wanted to talk to you about your mom.

Finn: What’s going on?

Sheila: What’s it look like, sweetheart?

Finn: No. What? No, what, you and Deacon?

Sheila: I– I have struggled my whole life. I have struggled to fit in and get ahead. To try and find someone that truly cared for me, accepted me. And I– I’ve finally found that someone.

[ Finn scoffing ]

Sheila: Someone who loves me. I’m happy. I am so happy. And I just– I hope that you can be happy for me, too.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, good. I caught you before you left. What are you doing here? I was about to change. I have an important meeting at DiMera’s today. Is that what you’re wearing? Just get out of here, okay? It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing because I am the one that’s going to be sitting in that meeting. Excuse me.

Well, now that Maggie kicks me out of Titan, the only place for me to be is by my son’s side.

That’s better.

Oh, Maggie. What are you doing here?

Hello? Hi, can I get some service, please? My boyfriend is lying in bed with a gunshot wound. Who do you have to screw around here to get a pillow fluffed?

Phew.

You. Oh, thank God. You’re finally awake. I could kill you for worrying me like that.

You bastard. Mr. DiMera, I hope you don’t mind your butler let me in. Of course not. I take it you’re here with some follow up questions regarding Dimitri’s shooting. Actually, just one. Why did you lie to me?

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

Well, hello, Leo. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Don’t you hello, Leo me. I know what you did. Excuse me? Save it! Gwen told me about your diabolical plan to kill my boyfriend.

Oh, I didn’t realize you were still here. Oh! Come back. No, no, no, no, no. Don’t rush off on my accounts.

And you went through with it! Even after Gwen promised me you’d called it off. I did call it off. Oh, please. What, are you going to tell me that you had a change of heart with Dimitri lying in a hospital bed? You talk a good game, Kristen. What about all the horrible things that you have done in your life that you have never actually killed anyone?

Not that I know of. Not personally, anyway. And I really don’t think

you’re going to start today. For some measly money.

I did not shoot Dimitri. I swear to you I didn’t. I don’t believe you. But even if I did, and it wasn’t you or Gwen that tried to kill him, then who the hell was it?

There, there, Gabriella. No need to worry your pretty little head about business. Now that Mother’s here, you can just lie in bed and eat bonbons. Just like the real housewives of Salem. Ah, that rapier alimane wit. Although I hate to disappoint you, Viv. But no matter how much you try to charm us with your humor and your generosity of spirit, you are not going to take my job.

Is that sinking in? And I also wouldn’t get too comfortable in this house either. Gabriela, now that you’re my, uh, New daughter in law. Can I give you a little maternal advice? This ought to be good. Don’t underestimate me. Quaking in my boots. Well, you should be because I’m not leaving this house unless it’s feet first.

That can be arranged. I’m staying here, and if you get in my way, you’ll regret it.

Like I said, my wife and I were upstairs when we heard a gunshot. We came down into this room and found my nephew Dimitri on the floor, bleeding. Then we saw the weapon, the one that I showed you. Yeah, I remember.

We dusted it for prints. We found Dimitri’s. But, you know, what was also interesting is that we also found your sister Kristen’s prints on them, too. Great. Mystery solved. It must have been Kristen who shot him. Except that she didn’t. You see, the prints, they don’t even matter. As it turns out, because you know why?

The bullet that the doctors dug out of Dimitri didn’t match this gun. Dimitri was shot with another gun.

You were shot. Isn’t really much of a surprise though, considering what an absolute dirtbag you are. It’s bound to happen eventually. Excuse me? Oh, come now, don’t tell me that the bullet’s suddenly giving you amnesia.

Okay, fine. I’ll remind you. Shall I?

You lied to me. And you got me to marry you. So that you could inherit the von Leutschner fortune, all the while having an affair with my best friend. And that was a despicable thing to do. Gwen, I am so sorry. Oh. You’re sorry, are you? You’re sorry just isn’t going to cut it.

For this room.

Sorry. I didn’t expect to see you here. Vivian, uh, certainly makes sure to mark her territory, doesn’t she? Oh my god, that woman. I can’t believe she surfaced again. Yeah, it’s always such fun when she does. But now that we know that Victor did, in fact, have a will, I had the distinct pleasure of ousting her out of both the house and the company and taking the job of CEO back.

Right. Well, I’m glad to hear that Vivian’s out of the picture, and I wish I could have been there to watch you kick her to the curb. But… But? Victor… My father, he left me in charge of Titan. What? No. Yes, yes, he did. When he named me in his will. Which I happen to have right here.

You brought Victor’s will? I thought in case I needed proof that I had been named CEO. But you haven’t. Victor didn’t name a CEO in his will.

The other 50 percent of my estate, including controlling interest in Titan, shall go to my son. Controlling interest. So you see, Victor may not have specifically named me CEO in this, but he clearly spelled out his wishes. But Alex, he spelled out his wishes when he was alive. He gave me the job. He could have given you the job, but he didn’t.

I mean, don’t you think if he would have wanted you to be CEO after his death, that he would have mentioned it? Maggie,

I don’t know. Maybe he was in a hurry when he made out the will. Maybe he didn’t think it was necessary because he gave me controlling interest. What else? Which means I am in control. Please, no, don’t fight me on this, Maggie. Really. I have considered my options very carefully. I want the job.

So Dimitri was shot with another gun. Is that how you want to play this, Mr. DiMera? Because if you know anything about what really happened to Dimitri, and you’re trying to hide it from me, believe me, I will get to the bottom of this, and I will not hesitate to lock you up. Jada, Jada, you cannot lock him up.

Okay, he had nothing to do with this. Oh, really? Yes, the person that shot Dimitri von Leuschner was Vivian Alamein, my mother in law.

Lipstick? Wallet? Where’s my gun?

Vivian shot Dimitri? Quit this.

I don’t know who shot Dimitri. And spare me the righteous indignation, will you? You are hardly in a position to judge anyone. Considering that when you were screwing my nephew, you were screwing over your so called best friend. Oh, God. I think that high horse you’re on is giving you the vapors. We both know you don’t care about Gwen, only your share of Dimitri’s inheritance, which you blackmailed him out of, by the way.

So spare me the concerned gal pal act, save it for your bratty little daughter. Although, I don’t even think she’d believe it. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go check on my boyfriend. Oh.

Gwen, darling, where did you find that? Darling, somebody left it out on a tray. Can you believe that? I mean, they really, really ought to be more careful. Because somebody could, um, really get hurt. And what are you planning to do with it? What do I plan to do with it? Um, I don’t know. I had a few ideas. I thought about what to do.

And then I remembered how Leo just wouldn’t shut up about that magic penis of yours.

So I thought, perhaps I could work a little bit of magic of

my own and make it disappear.

Please Gwen, you don’t, you don’t, you don’t. You know, I was thinking, it’s been a while since I’ve seen the old MP myself. Now, I will admit that I was equally infatuated with it, although now I’m not really remembering why. Perhaps… It’ll refresh my memory. Um, Gwen.

There it is. It really is a thing of beauty, isn’t it?

Hmm. I suppose, besides the title and the money, of course, that thing of beauty is why Leo fell absolutely mad for you, although I think you would admit that that is a pretty shallow reason to fall in love with someone.

I wonder how lovable he would find you. If he and Matthew Perry there were no longer friends. Help! Help! Sure, sure. Help! It’ll only take a minute! Gwen,

what the hell are you doing? What the hell are you doing? I am telling the truth! Look, I know, I know you want to protect your mother, but you are my husband! If I have to choose between you and her, I’m gonna choose you every single time. I am not gonna let you go down for your out of control, gun toting, lunatic of a mother.

Okay, that is not fair. My mother may be out of control at times, but she is not gun toting. Uh, has anybody seen my gun?

Alex,

I understand that ever since you found out that your father isn’t Justin, that Victor was your father. Your world has been turned upside down. Yeah, it has. And I’m still dealing with that. But that doesn’t change the fact that Titan is my birthright. Victor told me a while back he thought I had a killer instinct.

He knew that I was cut out for the top job. And I know what I’m entitled to. Is this payback, Alex? Excuse me? I mean, when I fired you. I mean, now that the tables are turned, is this your retribution? No, Maggie, of course not. Yes, it’s true that I didn’t agree with some of the things that you were doing to run this place, but…

That’s not why I’m taking the job. I’m not trying to act out of retaliation. I’m taking the job because Victor… It was my father. And this is clearly what he wanted. She can’t…

You can’t give that to her. It’s my property. Mother, you are not helping your case. What case? Dimitri was threatening my son. He was threatening to kill him. I almost went through that once before. I couldn’t endure it again. Besides, it’s not illegal to shoot someone in self defense. Okay, what my mother is trying to tell you, in her own inimitable way, is the truth.

Yes, Dimitri was trying to kill me, and Gabby. And he likely would have, and we wouldn’t be standing here right now had my mother not intervened. And that is why I had a hard time turning her in. And we also want to press charges against Amitri von Bleichner. Yes, definitely. You’re willing to testify this?

Absolutely. Yes, we both will. We can corroborate each other’s story. Okay, well this might mitigate your attempted murder charge. However, you lied to the police, and possessing a gun is in violation of your parole. So, I will be speaking to your parole

officer.

John, listen to me. I saw her with my own eyes. Susan is alive. No, no, no. I know we’d all been meant to believe otherwise, but… Uh, yeah. I’ve got to go. Kate just walked in. I’ll get back to you. Bye. Hey, sorry to barge in like this. Your assistant said you were on a break, though. No, that’s quite all right. Um, did you hear about Susan?

Yeah, yeah, I did. She’s alive. That’s good for her. Um, I need to talk about Phillip. Is he alright? He’s fine. I’m not. He’s leaving town. Who’s Chloe Lin?

Wait a minute! Gwen! Gwen! Put down the scalpel! Look, I am sorry that you feel betrayed, but this is insane. I can’t let you hurt him.

This is gonna hurt you a lot more than it’s gonna hurt him. No, it’s gonna hurt us both. I mean, hurt us, it’s gonna destroy us. And it’s going to destroy you. You wouldn’t be able to live with yourself if you did what you’re about to do.

Gwenny, you are not a violent person.

I know that you have had a hard life. And like me, you have gone to extremes at times to get what you thought you needed or to get revenge against people who have hurt you. But this, this is cruel, and this is out of character for you. Because you are a kind and decent person. And looking at you now, about to inflict this kind of pain on someone?

About to ruin someone’s life in the most horrific way? Even that look in your eyes, Gwenny.

It’s like you’re not the person I know and love. It is breaking my heart. You have no heart. You know that isn’t true.

I am not trying to make excuses, Gwenny. I’m not trying to make excuses.

And I am miserable. A lot of the time. And people don’t know that because I use humor. To cover up how much I hate myself. You’re just trying to you. No, I’m trying to make you realize that I never meant to hurt you. Ever. It’s my desperate need for love that caused me to betray you. And you want to get back at somebody?

Get back at me. Because I hurt you more than Dimitri did. You got that right.

You were supposed to be my, my best friend.

And Dimitri, well, yes, I’m used to romances falling apart, but you, you…

We were supposed to be forever. I thought we were going to grow old together. I thought we were gonna comfort each other, I thought we were gonna make each other love. I thought so too.

And then I did what I always do. I don’t know if this is therapy speak, but I sabotaged myself. Because I felt like I had finally found love. Found a way to be happy. And that made me horribly selfish. So I sabotaged the only friendship that has ever meant anything to me.

I wish we had been honest with you from the start.

I guess I was just hoping, stupidly, so stupidly, that there was just some way we could all get what we wanted out of this.

I know that words are cheap, but I love you, Gwen. You have added so much to my miserable life. And maybe I didn’t tell you enough, maybe I never said it at all, but I have always felt so lucky to have you as a friend. To have you as an ally. And I would be willing to do whatever I had to do to make it up for you.

Please, please, tell me that you are willing to let me try.

Please.

I hope you’re rotten hell, both of you.

Alex, when I learned that you were Victor’s son, as upsetting as it was to you and Justin, it honestly did warm my heart. Because I thought, now that Victor is gone, I can be there for you. Because I, I know that’s what he, he would want.

Is there a point to this or the point? The point is, you’re important to me, Alex. You always have been, but now seeing my husband and you, it makes me feel even closer to you. But I also feel, uh, I believe that if he would have wanted you to be CEO, he would have made you CEO. Maybe he wants the two of us to work together.

Maybe he wanted us to, to be co CEOs. Yeah, I, I just don’t, I don’t see that working out very well, to be honest with you, Maggie. I mean, we don’t see eye to eye on the way we should run this business. So, you’d rather simply take my job? No, no, and that’s… I heard… Like I said, I don’t see it that way, but obviously you do, so I’m telling you right now, if you’re not willing to just give up, willingly, I have no other choice but to just bring it in front of the board, because with controlling interests, all I have to do to get them to remove you Jada

was accusing you! I told you, it’s either her or you! You. Oh, so now she gets charged with attempted murder. You hurt Jada? That’s off the table! Oh ho ho ho! So now it’s only that I was lying to the police and violating my parole. Lucky me! Well, you brought it on yourself, lady! Are you just gonna stand there and let this wife of yours throw your mother under the bus?

Hey, Mother, I’m afraid there’s nothing we can do about it now. Jada knows you violated your parole, and if she acts on what she found out here today, the U. S. Marshals are gonna be knocking down that door any second. Well, I don’t suppose there’s anything I can do other than leave town. Hallelujah!

Gwen, I got your message. Now, I know I gave you every reason to believe it was me, but I promise you I did not shoot Dimitri. Then who the hell did? Vivian Allemane. What? Why would Vivian shoot Dimitri? Apparently she walked in just as Dimitri was about to kill Stephan and Gabby. I’m here to arrest your husband.

Well, that’s the best news I’ve heard all day.

Calling a board meeting won’t be necessary. I’ll go. But I must say, I’m very disappointed. That I didn’t get through to you at all. I knew you were a womanizer. And that you tended to be grandiose. And somewhat full of yourself. But I didn’t think that you were so callous that you wouldn’t respond to what I said, which came from my heart about seeing Victor and you, how it moved me.

Look, Maggie, I’m not telling you that there’s no role for you at Titan. I’m going to need capable people. Yes, you will. But you’re right. Something tells me that you and I teaming up would work out about as well as it did the last time.

If you’ll excuse me, I need to read your husband his rights. Huh. Well, Dimitri’s

finally getting what’s coming to him. Yeah, well, he’s not the only one. Don’t you see what this means? We are going to get what’s coming to us, too. What are you talking about? Oh please, do I really need to spell it out to you? Apparently. Okay, okay, so listen. Dimitri is going off to Statesville. And someone is going to get the Von Leuschner fortune.

Wait. Gwen didn’t hurt you, did she? She came a little close for comfort. But, um, She didn’t draw any blood. How did this happen? Well, I had my gun trained on Gabby and Stephan. Then I heard a shot and felt a searing pain in my back. Wait a minute. Hm? You had a gun on Gabby and Stephan? You promised me you weren’t gonna do that.

I know, I know, and I meant it. After you left the mansion, I was ready to hand over the DiMera shares, but just before I was about to do it, Kristen walked in and pulled a gun on me. Kristen did this? No, no, no, she didn’t do this. Then who was it? Stefan’s mother. Vivian? I managed to get the gun away from Kristen.

I had it in my hand. Then Gabby and Stefan walked in acting all cocky. So you aimed the gun at them? It was an impulse move. And then Vivian walked in and shot me. Wait, if she shot you in the back, how did you know it was her? I guess I came to for a little while after that. Can you please focus on the fact that I nearly just…

I’m trying not to focus on that part.

But the important thing is that you are alive and now that the truth is out. We have nothing to worry about. Ahem.

I think it’s time the new Mrs. von Leuschner needs to pay her in laws a visit. Explain how poor, deranged Dimitri is going off to prison. Therefore, his new wife is entitled to his fortune.

You really think that would work? Well, why not? You’re still married to him, aren’t you? And you and Dimitri, you’ve fulfilled the conditions of the carter cell. Why shouldn’t they pay you? I’m not sure the von Leuschens would see it that way. Well then, you’ll have to persuade them. May take a little time.

And, uh, maybe a little fancy footwork. True, and I have always been good at thinking on my feet.

Yeah, I mean, honestly, there’s not really anything left keeping me here in Salem. I have the Spectator, of course, but that’s all tangled up with Xander, and honestly, that’s not a road that I want to go down again.

The only friend that I had was Leo, and, well, you

know how that turned out. Yeah, well, you always got me. Thanks, I think.

I don’t know, ever since I arrived here in Salem, it’s just been one bloody debacle after the other.

Maybe it’s time that I see what else is out there for me.

Perhaps a sizable inheritance.

Stefan, my dear boy, I would never leave you, but I have no choice. There you go. I think I’ll go back to Amania. It’s our home. It don’t worry about me. Whatever life throws in Vivian Al Lane’s way,

I will always rise like a phoenix. From the ashes.

So. Chloe and Philip are back together. No, I mean, I hope not. I mean Marlena, he got the help that he needed. He really did and he was doing so well, but it’s his obsession with Chloe that made him lose his mind in the first place. So. I mean, what if that happens again?

Philip is a grown man. And, and, Chloe must have believed that he’s changed or she never would have agreed to go to New York with him.

I suppose so. Okay, putting all of that aside. Honestly, I was really hoping that Philip was going to stay in Salem. Especially now, you know, and I suppose that was really, really silly of me to think that you know that he would want to be closer with me now because of losing his father.

Oh,

uncle Vic, I,

dad,

I really hope you’re not mad about Maggie.

But I don’t think you would have dangled this opportunity in front of me if you didn’t want me to grab the brass ring.

Detective Hunter, what can we do for you? Well, Mr. Stark, for once, this doesn’t concern you. Dimitri von Leuschner, you are under arrest for attempted murder.

Vivian’s gone. Thought she’d be saying goodbye to you for at least another hour. Honey, you’re really sad to see her go. You can’t tell me you were happy living with her in this house. It wouldn’t have been forever.

I’m pleased that was with the, the law on her tail. Look, I know she’s impossible. She’s my mother, and I feel bad for her. Yeah, that’s because you have a good heart. But that woman… Your mother? Misery follows her wherever she goes. Right. You may not see it right now, but trust me, I did you a huge favor.

Welcome to Global Airlines. You only travel in style. Better be careful. One never knows who one’s going to run into.

There’s my flight, it’s already boarding. Flight SK84 from Los Angeles has arrived at gate A57. Well, Salem.

Hasn’t always been fun, has it? Certainly been interesting.

There are things about you that I have loved. There’s also a lot of things I’ve hated.

I suppose you could say the same thing about me, though.

I promise you, it might be goodbye for now. You haven’t seen the last of this 16 from Geneva landed at number 8. Teresa! Teresa, would you hurry up already, please? Please proceed to baggage claims belt 2. Oh

you jets, I’m coming.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Jack: Wow. You are a vision. How did I get so lucky?

Diane: You look at me like that and I start to blush. Wow, you’ve really outdone yourself, I can’t– I can’t wait to see what’s next.

Lily: What exactly are your intentions at chancellor-winters?

Jill: Yeah, actually, I’m pretty curious about that myself.

[ Mamie laughs ]

Mamie: Jill, jill, jill. Who but you would show up at a private party to which you were not invited? Well, I can’t really say that I’m that surprised, but, oh, how rude.

Jill: You see, it just– it all seemed a little wonky, this secret investor thing the way it played out, so I just had to come and see firsthand if it was indeed you, mamie, who bought into my company. And if so, why?

Mamie: Well, when this investment opportunity came to my attention, I just couldn’t refuse. Oh, come on, jill, it’s wonderful, isn’t it? To be able to support a successful business and to reconnect with my family?

Jill: Yeah, it’s just fabulous.

Mamie: Oh, it is. Look, I have an opportunity to be a strong presence in the life of my family again. Which is what I was just about to tell them when you flew in here.

Lily: Jill, I know that you two haven’t always gotten along, but we have missed aunt mamie so much.

Nate: It has been away too long since we’ve had her here. Video chats aren’t enough.

Mamie: Oh, my honeys. I’m really so happy to be able to connect with you too, being able to see you here, in person. Oh, come on, jill. Life is so fragile. I want to be with my family. I want to cheer them on, wanna watch them grow. We have to make up for the lost time, yeah?

[ All laughs ]

Jill: This is such a crock. There is something else going on underneath all this and I want to know what the hell it is.

Jill: Let’s be very clear here, mamie. There was no opportunity for you to invest in chancellor-winters. We weren’t looking for investors, you know. We were very happy as we are, right, devon, lily? Am I missing something here? Did we invite anyone in?

Devon: No, we did not.

Jill: So, it seems that this was a back alley deal. Something we should have been made aware of beforehand. And victor, god love victor. He was a silent, minority partner, who to my knowledge, had no desire at all to sell his stake to others and he certainly didn’t need the cash, so why? Why would he put up his stake for grabs?

[ Mamie chuckles ] Did you have any involvement in this?

Victoria: What? No. Absolutely not, I didn’t know until recently that my father was even interested in chancellor-winters. But that transaction wasn’t under my purview.

Abby: Me? No, no, no. I mean, everyone knows that I am totally out of the loop with everything happening at newman or any decision that my dad makes. It’s better that way, I think it makes life easier most of the time.

Jill: So why, mamie? Why all the secrecy, huh? Why the hand grenade disguised as a happy surprise?

Mamie: Oh, jill, you really love making something out of nothing. Like I made some kind of back alley deal.

Lily: Well, aunt mamie, you kind of have to admit, it was out of the blue. I mean, you were just here for the bicentennial gala. Why didn’t you tell us then that you had an interest in chancellor-winters or even right after that?

Mamie: Oh, sweetheart, I love it when you, all of you call me aunt mamie. I really miss being a regular part of your lives. I mean, isn’t that enough right there to explain all of this?

Devon: Sure, but you didn’t have to invest in the company to spend more time with us.

Nate: No one’s upset, aunt mamie. We’re all just surprised, but I think things are coming out a bit harsher than anyone means, right? It’s a loving gesture, you wanting to make the family close again. I think we can all appreciate that. We’ve been through a lot together this past year.

Devon: Yeah, we certainly have, and I can definitely appreciate you wanting to get the family together like this, but you need to know that he is not a part of chancellor-winters. He speaks for himself. He doesn’t speak for me and lily.

Lily: Yeah, devon is right. Because of nate, we are very wary of family making secret moves when it comes to the company.

Mamie: And that is exactly why I’m here. I want to make sure that we can put all of this animosity behind us. That is what drucilla and neil would want too. Life is just so short and it’s really precious. You know, love and family matter above all else. So, that’s why I’m here. Perhaps, I can help you to remember that.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…

Diane: Thank you for this. This special moment, just the two of us.

Jack: I asked abby if I could pay to close the place tonight for a private party. I waited ’til she said yes before I told her it was a private party for two. The place is all ours.

Diane: It’s amazing. You’re amazing.

[ Soft jazz music playing ]

Jack: May I have this dance?

Diane: I would love to dance with you. I can’t believe I’m– I’m a little nervous about tomorrow.

Jack: Nervous? Really?

Diane: Yeah, I know it’s just the icing on the wedding cake, but still, I’ve got pre-wedding nerves even though we’ve been married months.

Jack: You know what? I think that’s a good thing.

Diane: Yeah.

Jack: Anticipation and nervousness and eagerness. I mean, I think it’s a great thing after everything we’ve been through.

Diane: Yeah.

Jack: And we have been through a lot, you and I.

Diane: Mm, I think back to those days when my life was so empty, and now, my days have purpose. But loving you feels like the most natural thing in the world, but I don’t know if I’ll ever get used to feeling so lucky. I mean, for– for so long, I– I don’t know, I felt like I didn’t deserve happiness. And now, this.

Jack: And now this.

Diane: And now this.

Jack: So, I’ve been thinking, what if we took it a step farther. What if we found someone to officiate our marriage at the beginning of the celebration? We could say our vows all over again.

Diane: Ah, jack, we don’t need to do that.

Jack: In front of our family and friends. I want them to know how committed we are. I want them to know this is for keeps.

Diane: Yeah, but the people who don’t support us might never be convinced.

Jack: So, you’re turning me down?

Diane: Never.

Jack: Okay. We will seize the day. We will share our love with everyone that’s gathered there.

Diane: All right. I’m on board, let’s do it.

[ Jack chuckles ]

Mamie: Jill, why is it that you only see shadows and secrets? I suppose that’s just how your mind thinks. But that’s not how the rest of us live our lives. This is my family that you’re in business with. You see the bottom line. I see love and togetherness. This is just not about you, honey.

Jill: Oh, lord, forgive me, mamie, but I know who you really are and I find it very hard not to doubt your motives.

Mamie: [ Laughs ] Okay. So, devon is correct. I didn’t have to make an investment in chancellor-winters in order to spend time with the people that I care about, but why not take advantage of a good business move at the same time?

Jill: Good choice of words. Boy, you really know about taking advantage, don’t you?

Mamie: Oh, no, you don’t wanna go down that road. I sit alongside john abbott all those years that he was building his business empire. I took good care of the abbott children.

Jill: You just stood alongside him? Sorry, honey, that wasn’t you.

Mamie: We have both grown and moved on since our time together at the abbott house. I think that john and mrs. Chancellor and your son, billy, would want us to have peace, not conflict. What do you think, victoria?

Victoria: Well, I– I know that the element of surprise might be unsettling, but ultimately, you are a part of the winters family and this is chancellor-winters.

Jill: Forgive me, victoria, but you have no skin in this game and I have a lifetime.

Mamie: And you want to spend the rest of what we have of our lifetimes bickering?

Jill: You never miss an opportunity to throw my words back at me. Some things never change.

Mamie: Some things never do. Like you thinking that your feelings are the only ones that count. Well, they aren’T.

[ Mamie sighs ] When I was here a few months back, I could see that lily and devon’s relationship had frayed. What do I do, do I lean in, do I help them, do I become the elder that they need to help them build the family legacy? Do what john would do.

Jill: Why do you keep bringing john into this? Oh, I get it. She does that to make me out to be the shrew who didn’t deserve him. This is not about john. It’s not about me, and spare me your heartfelt explanations. Start telling the truth, mamie, for god’s sake. Why? Why did you take over victor’s investment in chancellor-winters?

Mamie: Early on, victor told me about the threat of the company going public. I didn’t want to see that happen, particularly not when the family was so disconnected.

Lily: Well, we definitely appreciate that, but this recent development has caught us off guard.

Mamie: Whether I approached victor or he approached me, it doesn’t really matter.

Jill: The hell it doesn’T. You went to him. That means you were playing an angle. That means you have a goal in mind.

Mamie: And what goal would that be?

Jill: I have no idea. Maybe just to piss me off. Okay, let’s get down to brass tacks, okay? How much is it gonna take to buy you out?

[ Mamie chuckles ] Wowwww… boring. With over 40 delicious flavors, cirkul starts a party for your taste buds. No sugar, no calories, and no artificial flavors. Cirkul. It’s your water, your way. Now with even more flavors. Available at walmart or drinkcirkul.Com.

Mamie: My stake is not for sale, jill. It’s a sound investment.

Jill: Really? So, there’s no number that you would accept?

Mamie: No, actually, there isn’T. I have faith that lily and devon can take things to the next level at chancellor-winters.

Jill: Oh, well, I do too. We’re in agreement on that.

Mamie: I just want to further support their efforts and if that includes you, well then, so be it.

Jill: Wait a minute. Includes me? Includes me? I am the chancellor in chancellor-winters.

Mamie: Can we please stop talking about business tonight?

Abby: Yes, please. I am all for that.

Mamie: This evening is supposed to be a lovely reunion in a room that has meaning for all of us.

Lily: I agree. I think that dad would want us to enjoy being together and not let business get in the way.

Mamie: Amen, so let’s raise a glass and toast. To family, friends, and togetherness.

Nate: Hear, hear. Cheers.

Mamie: Thank you, nate.

Devon: Here’s the family.

Abby: Family.

Mamie: Jill, you are welcome to stay for the festivities, but you have got to stop going on about my intentions.

Lily: Jill, please stay. We have so much to be thankful for.

Jill: Wow, none of you really knows what’s going on here, do you?

Victoria: Uh, well, it certainly is a room full of big personalities.

Devon: And regardless, I am happy that we’re still a private company and we don’t have to answer to wall street or shareholders.

Lily: I’m just happy that we can all be together in person, especially with everything going on.

Jill: You know, I will stay because I have a very strong feeling that we’ve only heard part of the story.

[ Mamie sighs, laughs ]

Diane: I could stay like this all night.

Jack: Yeah?

Diane: Yeah.

Jack: We have to eat sometime and I did arrange for a pretty special, uh, pre-celebration dinner.

Diane: Hm. You take such good care of me, jack abbott.

Jack: You are my greatest source of joy.

Diane: To our love and to our family. So, do you think kyle will stand up with you tomorrow as your best man? He didn’t even bother to show up at our civil ceremony.

Jack: Oh, I think he was blindsided when we asked him on our way to the courthouse.

Diane: Well, tomorrow will be a surprise too, but I– I do want him next to you.

Jack: Well, I think he struggled with the concept then. Life was a little more complicated in those days.

Diane: Yeah, he was heartbroken about summer.

Jack: And he blamed me for his ouster from marchetti.

Diane: Well, you and I are making up for some past hurts. Do you think we can do the same with kyle?

Jack: Are we talking about healing his heart or are we talking about giving him back his old job?

Diane: We can’t heal his heart.

Jack: It’s not that easy, sweetheart. I can’t just cut billy loose to put kyle in his place. It would be mending one relationship by destroying another.

Looking for a bladder leak pad

that keeps you dry?

Diane: I’m not asking you to choose between our son and your brother.

Jack: I know that was never your intention, but it is kind of the reality of the situation. Look, I love our son. I want to work with him. I want him involved in every abbott family enterprise as a third-generation abbott. But billy is also part of that abbott family legacy and it would be a big mistake to cut him loose for personal reasons right now.

Diane: But is it really just personal? Billy has done some questionable things in the past behind your back, things that have compromised the integrity of jabot and the family as a whole.

Jack: He has admitted to us that he was tempted by tucker’s offer that he run jabot on his own. But he didn’t give in. He did not get drawn into that. He held firm. Look, he’s made mistakes in the past, no question about it, but in the here and now, he is not to blame.

Diane: I know you’re loyal to your brother, but how strong is that loyalty to you? You just said that he considered looking out for his own best interests.

Jack: I’m not saying it wasn’t a possibility. I’m saying he didn’t cross that line.

[ Diane sighs ] Hey… this isn’t easy for me. I have to think this through.

Diane: How so?

Jack: Well, if I cut billy loose right now, there are serious ramifications. Not just inside the family or inside jabot, but from the outside world. The appearance of upheaval in the c-suite, the appearance that there is unsteady leadership. Honey, I have worked very hard on my relationship with billy. I think this has been good for us as brothers, good for billy and his self-image and good for his stability.

Diane: What do you mean “his stability?”

Jack: When billy feels isolated and abandoned, he goes to some pretty dark places.

Diane: Is he really that fragile?

Jack: No, not anymore. But I don’t want him thinking I lost faith in him.

Diane: But what about how much our son values your faith in him? You know how much your approval means to kyle?

Jack: I do. It’s a very delicate balance. And I use all of the values and principles that my father instilled in all of us to keep the abbott family legacy alive. Jabot has already been through a lot. We’ve had too many captains steering the jabot ship, not just dad and me, but jill and victor and…

Diane: Jill. [ Laughs ] She’s had a colorful past with the family and jabot.

Jack: And to be sure. And with mamie back in town, that past is all too present.

Diane: Mm-hmm. The two of them do have history.

Jack: Whatever issues the two of them had, well, most of them were settled years ago. I just pray they are able to let go of things now. How– how did– how did this happen? How– how did we make this pivot away from talking about us?

Diane: Yeah.

Jack: Our future together, our love. If our love and commitment are solid, we can conquer anything. I truly believe that. Let’s drink to that.

Jill: Hey.

Devon: Hm?

Jill: What do you two make of this mamie thing? And I promise you, I promise you, if you knew her like I knew her, you would be suspicious too.

Devon: Well, that’s the thing, jill, is we don’t really know her. Or I don’t know her as well as you do. So, it’s hard for me to have an opinion. I just don’t understand why she’s been so damn secretive.

Lily: Look, I get where you’re both coming from, but let’s not make tonight about that. I mean, we’re here, together, in person. The company is strong, it’s growing. Let’s just focus on that.

Devon: That’s fine with me. As long as we’re not at risk of an ipl, then I’m good.

Jill: But there are other issues though.

Lily: Jill, can you please try? Please? Let mamie feel like she’s a part of something bigger with her family and not a threat. I mean, she’s successful, she’s family and she’s not backing down. So, let’s just welcome her.

Jill: Okay, lily, but devon is right. You do not know the history, but okay. All right. I will just hold my tongue unless she comes after me. And then, you know–

Lily: I know. We know. We know.

Mamie: Victoria, I’m pleased to see that you and nate are working together. That’s a brilliant mind you have sitting next to you.

Nate: Oh, mamie. [ Laughs ]

Victoria: Oh, nate is a very impressive man.

Mamie: Mm-hmm. Growing up to follow in medicine like his mother and then branching out to start a path of his own. It takes a lot of grit. I’m proud of you.

Nate: [ Chuckles ] Thank you. That means a lot coming from you.

Mamie: And you may not be his son… but there’s a lot of neil that I see in you.

Victoria: Well, there is absolutely no question that his presence was felt here today.

Nate: That is for sure.

Victoria: Do you know my father adored neil? He was a fixture at the ranch and at newman enterprises and I– I have no doubt that he is very proud of your success at the company.

[ Phone ringing ]

[ Sighs ] I have to take this. Excuse me.

[ Nate sighs ]

Mamie: Well, I can see now that there’s more than a working relationship with your boss. It’s more than you told me when we had our last phone chat.

Nate: Okay, you can stop now, aunt mamie.

Mamie: Why would I do that?

Nate: [ Laughs ] Because I’m a grown man.

Abby: You know what? Um, I am gonna go so the two of you can chat.

Mamie: So, whatever happened to that doctor lady that I– you know, I got really good vibes from that young lady.

Nate: It didn’t work out.

Mamie: Uh-huh. And why didn’t it work out?

Nate: We weren’t growing in the same direction.

Mamie: Oh, and so– but you were growing in the direction of victoria.

Nate: Careful, aunt mamie.

Mamie: Uh-huh. And did this new direction happen after you broke up or was victoria the reason? What was that doctor’s name?

Nate: Elena.

Mamie: Was victoria the reason why you and elena parted ways? Even when I was with the people I love,

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue.

Nate: How victoria and i got involved is a story for another day, maybe, if you just listen and don’t pass judgment.

Mamie: Oh, you ask so much of me.

[ Nate laughs ]

Nate: It really is so good to have you back in genoa city. As you know, I don’t get to see my mom very often, so this is significant and meaningful to me, and all of us here.

Mamie: Mm. I think I hear a but coming on.

Nate: You always had great intuition. I do remember that as a kid.

Mamie: Thank you.

Nate: But yes, please try your best not to pry into our personal lives or cast judgment on any of us. Do you think you can stop yourself from crossing that boundary?

Mamie: Well, I apologize if I came off that way. I certainly don’t want to be seen or perceived of as a busybody. I just wanted to make sure that all of you are happy.

Nate: Well, I can only speak for myself, but I haven’t been this happy in a very long time.

Mamie: Oh, well, then I’m thrilled.

[ Nate chuckles ]

Devon: Hey.

Abby: Hey.

Devon: Sorry if I made you feel like I’ve abandoned you.

Abby: Ah, don’t be silly. This is a huge deal for your family. I know all about the dynamics and the drama.

Devon: Oh, thank you. I just still don’t understand why aunt mamie had to be so secretive about everything.

Abby: Hm. That’s fair.

Devon: It’s just like, especially if she just wanted to get the family together, why didn’t she call us? Tell us?

Abby: Oh, maybe she just wanted it to be a surprise. Is that so hard to believe? Does there have to be an ulterior motive?

Devon: Well, no, it doesn’T. But she could have just said, “hey, this is what I’m gonna do. What do you guys think?”

Abby: I think mamie is doing that tonight here. In her own way.

Jill: Mamie, I’ve really gotta hand it to you. You’ve come a long way from the abbott house.

Mamie: Um, well, thank you for the compliment. Although, I have a feeling that a sucker punch is coming.

Jill: No, not this evening. I mean, I know I’m right. I know you’re up to something because my radar has served me very well over the years, but I’ve decided to put my reservations aside and offer you congratulations.

Mamie: Well, now, that’s rather unheard of.

Jill: I know, but you have come a long way. I mean, you’ve managed to pull this whole thing off without any of us seeing it coming. And that takes some real smarts.

Mamie: I’ve always been smart and capable, jill. You just never liked me very much and so you couldn’t see it or accept it.

Jill: That is probably true.

[ Both laughing ] So, I don’t suppose it’s worth it if I ask you, just what is it you ultimately want?

Mamie: Never show your hand, jill, until it’s time. (Vo) you were diagnosed with thyroid eye disease At humana, we believe your healthcare should evolve with you, and part of that evolution means choosing the right medicare plan for you. Humana can help. Hi, my name is sam davis and I’m going to tell you about medicare advantage prescription drug plans that can provide more coverage than original medicare, including prescription drug coverage, all wrapped up into one convenient plan. With original medicare you’re covered for hospital stays and doctor office visits, but you have to meet a deductible for each. And then you’re still responsible for 20% of the cost. Next, let’s look at medicare supplement plans. If a service is covered under original medicare, then a medicare supplement plan pays for some or all of your medicare deductibles and the 20% coinsurance. But they may have higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage. Humana medicare advantage prescription drug plans include medical coverage, plus prescription drug coverage. As well as dental coverage that includes two free cleanings a year, plus a yearly exam. Vision coverage includes vision exams and a yearly allowance toward eyewear such as lenses or contacts. And hearing benefits include routine hearing exams and coverage toward hearing aids. You’re covered for preventive services like annual mammograms and prostate exams. There’s a zero-dollar copay for routine vaccines and telehealth visits. And you get worldwide coverage for emergencies when you travel. You get all of this in one convenient plan. Plus, there’s a cap on your out-of-pocket costs! So, call or go online today to see if there’s a humana plan in your area, to find out if your doctor is in one of our networks, and to get our free decision guide. There’s no obligation, just good information. Humana – a more human way to healthcare.

Daniel: Considering the fireworks that could have gone off, it sounds like it was actually a pretty peaceful and enjoyable evening.

Lily: Yeah. I mean, I’m really happy that aunt mamie found this new phase in her life and that her investments are doing well. I’m just– I’m so curious as to what led her here.

Daniel: Are you worried that jill’s right? That mamie has a hidden agenda?

Lily: I don’t want to be worried. [ Chuckles ]

Daniel: You know, as an outsider, it seems like jill’s making a bigger deal of this than it is.

Lily: Well, I mean, the mamie-jill rivalry goes pretty far back and I’m in the middle because mamie’s my family but I work for jill.

Daniel: But you don’t think there’s some secret hostile takeover going on, right? It– it’s a minor financial investment, which seems like that’s what mamie does these days.

Lily: Yeah. I don’t know. I guess so.

Daniel: Hey, come here.

Lily: Oh.

Daniel: Yeah. [ Sighs ] Oh, gosh, that feels nice. Mm. It’s my specialty.

[ Lily chuckles ]

Lily: Well, one of them.

Daniel: Yeah? What’s the other one? Oh.

Victoria: Well, that was– that was quite the family gathering.

Nate: And you took it all in stride. Thank you for that.

Victoria: You’re welcome. I’m used to family drama. All kinds.

[ Nate clears throat ]

Nate: I’m worried jill and aunt mamie aren’t gonna be able to find common ground. And that aunt mamie seems intent on sticking around and getting involved.

Victoria: Yeah. You know, her connecting with my dad was curious but… I’m more concerned about you.

Nate: Me? [ Laughs ] Why? I have no horse in that race. If aunt mamie and jill want to duke it out, I can’t stop them.

Victoria: I mean– I mean, were you tempted by mamie’s suggestion that you return to chancellor-winters?

Nate: Not for a second. First, I am certain I am right where I belong.

Victoria: Well, that’s good to hear.

Nate: Second, we both know devon and lily would never agree to that. And even if they did, I’m sure it would be as miserable as the last time, maybe even worse.

Victoria: Some things heal with time and some don’T.

Nate: Why? Are you trying to get rid of me?

Victoria: Not a chance, sir.

[ Diane sighs ]

Diane: Thank you for a delicious dinner and a wonderful evening.

Jack: It was my absolute pleasure.

Diane: It was magical.

Jack: Well, I would expect nothing less on the last night before we renew our vows as mr. And mrs. Jack abbott in front of all our family and friends.

Diane: I can’t wait for our next chapter.

Jack: Together we can handle anything, whether it’s billy’s unpredictability or kyle’s confused defiance or tucker’s endless onslaught. We can handle anything together, as a team.

Diane: We are quite the force of nature together, aren’t we?

Jack: And I could never love anyone as much as I love you right now. Mm.

[ Diane chuckles ] ( )

Jill: Oh, what a night.

Devon: I know. Feels good to be home.

Abby: Uh, absolutely. I am gonna go check on dominic.

Jill: Abby, I was so glad to be able to spend time with you today. And how is your mom doing? I mean, I heard what happened with tucker. Not that we were surprised.

Abby: Yeah, we were and we weren’T.

Jill: I guess. Anyway, give her my best.

Abby: Thank you.

Jill: And kiss dominic for me, okay?

Abby: Will do.

Jill: Boy, I’m really glad that you and abby are settling in here. I’m very relieved that this home is in such good hands. Thank you.

Devon: Uh-huh. Well, thank you for saying that. It means a lot to hear you say that. And I’m just happy that dominic gets to grow up in such a cool place like this.

Jill: I know. There she is. Whenever I’m here, oh, god, do I feel her presence. I hear that voice echoing in the halls. I spent a lot of my youth here, you know. The difficult times and love and laughter and quite a few fights. One of them involving a cake.

[ Devon laughs ]

Devon: What’s really on your mind, jill?

Jill: Well, you think you’re pretty perceptive, don’t you?

[ Devon clears throat ] It’s just that when seeing mamie it– it kind of opened a lot of chapters from old wounds, I guess you’d say with the abbots, you know. And things that you think have gone away, but they haven’T.

Devon: Well, so much of your family and your career is centered around the abbotts.

Jill: Yeah. And I had some pretty wonderful memories of john, I’ll tell you that. But not so much mamie. No offense to the extended winters family.

Devon: None taken at all.

Jill: Perhaps you can understand my skepticism about her, even if you don’t agree with it.

Devon: Of course, I can. Yeah.

Jill: So, would you give me your honest take on this whole mamie thing?

Devon: Oh, my honest take was that I was surprised. Surprised just like you were. And like I told abby, I wish that she would have said something beforehand instead of making this a big mystery game.

Jill: Mm-hmm.

Devon: But, you know, again, I don’t know her very well, so maybe she gets a kick out of stuff like this.

Jill: Oh, she got a kick out of that today, I’ll tell you that. And how could there not be an ulterior motive with her?

Devon: I don’t know. But honestly, you know her a lot better than me.

Jill: Oh, I sure do. And so I know that there is a surprise behind the surprise.

[ Mamie sighs ]

[ Mamie laughs ] Oh. Ah. Oh. Ah. Cheers to me and a perfect evening.

[ Mamie chuckles ] Mm.

[ Phone ringing ] Hello. Yeah. Yeah, I just got back to my suite.

[ Laughs ] Well, it went off without a hitch. They don’t have a clue. But they’re all as curious as hell. [ Laughs ] Yeah, it just went perfect. [ Laughs ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[ Door opens ] So this is where you’ve been hiding out? I haven’t been hiding. I’ve been making a home for us. Charlotte: Papa, why is the door open? The met was amazing. Yeah. Were you really surprised? Yeah. I mean, I knew that we were going to the met, but a first-class tour through the archives? I didn’t expect that. Yeah, well, it makes me very happy to see you so happy. It was like a backstage pass to a taylor swift concert. Wow. I couldn’t believe that you did that for me. Well, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do for you, trina robinson. Enough? Feeling any better?

[ Groans ] Some. [ Sighs ] Thanks, bro. My eyes were really starting to burn. Okay. Yeah, listen, I know they teach the, uh — the gun safety there at the academy. What about the, uh — the pepper spray safety? Oh, that’s funny. I’ll have you know, your little brother was able to defuse a volatile situation without any gunfire. It was worth the collateral damage. Well, good. No driving for half an hour. That’s doctor’s orders. Yes, sir. I’ll, uh — I’ll see you in the lounge when you’re done. Thanks again. Okay.

[ Door opens ]

[ Telephone ringing ]

[ Elevator dings ] Dr. Finn! Congratulate me. Congratulations. Who’d you fire this time? Oh, sadly, no one. Ah. But I did just get reinstated to the hospital board. Hm.

[ Knock on door ]

[Muffled] Come in. I know you’re swamped, but did you get a chance to read my op-ed piece? I e-mailed it to you. And I will check my box as soon as I get a chance. I have a hard copy here. Save you some time. Okay. I’d love for you to read it. And I will. I’m almost done, and as soon as I finish this, I will read it. Thanks. Thanks. Oh.

[ Sighs ]

[ Dramatic music plays ] Skydive. Visit the van gogh museum in amsterdam. Take violet to disneyland. Hot yoga. Read “anna karenina.” Hike machu picchu. Going to racing school. Let me ask you one question, gladys. How are you going to pay for this trip? ‘Cause I already know that you stole sasha’s money to pay back your gambling debt to selina wu. No, that’s not how it — shut up. I don’t want to hear any more lies. I’m gonna make sure that you don’t lie again. Do you understand what I’m saying? Sonny, please — no. What do you want? You want me to listen to more lies? You want me to ignore that you betrayed my trust, that you dishonored your own son and robbed his widow? Sonny, I never meant for — I don’t care what you meant! I know exactly what you did. And now you’re going to pay for it. Daniels, I need you to get a prisoner from the holding cell and bring him to interrogation one. Which prisoner, sir? Cody bell.

[ Screams ] What the hell are you doing here? Drop the syringe. Let sasha go. Oh, I’m sorry. I don’t take orders from mental patients who committed assault and kidnapping. He was trying to save me from you! And the other cuckoo bird sings. Hey, hey, hey, hey. I’m walking out of here, and I’m taking her with me.

Hi, charlotte. Hi. Anna. How do you like our home? Well, um… it’s lovely. Thank you. Jake asked if we could meet at the skateboard park. Really? I was thinking maybe we could — papa, please. He wants to show me a trick wyatt taught him. I finished all my homework at school. Okay, fine. Have fun. Be careful. I always am. Bye, papa. It was… lovely. [ Laughs ] Yeah, sorry about that. She’s enjoying the new house and being close to her friend jake. Sure. Come in. Anna. I owe you an apology. Ohh! I hate that we have to leave today. I know.

[ Sighs ] Our time here went by so fast, but I’m gonna remember every single moment. It was amazing watching you at the museum today. Watching me? Mm-hmm. You’re supposed to be looking at the art. Yeah, but I couldn’t take my eyes off you. I don’t know. You were so in your element. You seemed so happy. Seemed so intense. Be careful, spencer. You’re gonna make me fall in love with you even more. Me? Y-you’re in love with me? You know I am. I guess that works out pretty good, because I am crazy — I mean crazy — in love with you.

[ Knock on door ] So, what do you think? I’m sure it was perfect. Look, thanks, but I was really hoping you’d read it. I always respect your opinion. And I will. I-I’ll read it on my phone during one of my endless circulation meetings. Okay. Oh.

[ Sighs ] Board of directors? That’s a lot of work. What possessed you? My family has donated a great deal of money to this hospital, and I felt it would behoove me to make sure our investment isn’t mismanaged. Okay. Well, now that you’re, I guess, technically one of my bosses, I probably should pretend to be working. Backgammon thursday? Definitely. Okay. It’s time to come clean, gladys. You stole from sasha. And then when she was ready to get her money back, you hired a doctor to mess with her head.

[ Breathes shakily ] Actually, it was worse than that, sonny. What can be worse than that, sam? The doctor was gladys’ poker buddy, and he put sasha on a medication that made her hallucinate when taken in combination with her antidepressant. And that’s when she stabbed cody? I swear, I never asked him to drug sasha. When I found out what he was doing, I tried to make him stop. I did everything I could to set sasha free. Another lie! Sorry, chief. Cody bell isn’t here. What? He’s not in holding. He was let out in the custody of detective falconeri. Said he was taking him back to ferncliff. Oh, boy. Come on, let’s go. Dr. Montague: Get away from the door. You know this can never work. I know it can work. Mnh-mnh. There’s enough propofol in this syringe to turn sasha into sleeping beauty. Only all the prince charmings in the world would never be able to wake her up. Or if she’s just lucky, it’ll kill her. Is that how you want this fairy tale to end, mr. Bell? Don’t listen to him, cody. Shut up! I have nothing to lose now. And that makes a man brave. You want to gamble, cody? It’s gonna be okay, sasha. Dr. Montague: That’s right, sasha. Everything is going to be just fine. Dr. Montague? Oh, good. I’m gonna need your help, janice.

Call security, janice. Don’t listen to him. He kidnapped sasha and assaulted me. What are you doing, dr. Montague? He’s been drugging me since before I even got here. I’m gonna call security. You’re not going to move unless you want sasha’s death on your hands. Now, you listen to me. You are gonna make sure that every security door is open so me and my friend here can get out the back entrance. And if I hear any alarms go off when we walk out, she dies. And you are going to stay here, mr. Bell, or she dies. Now, janice! Cody!

[ Cody grunting ]

[ Both grunting ] Cody. If you wanted to set sasha free, you would have come to me. You would have told me what you did. That would have been thinking of her safety instead of trying to save your own skin. Yeah, but when has she ever cared about anyone else? Never. Never. That’s not true. Brando was everything. Yeah, bran– you said — you said brando was dead because you wanted to collect the insurance money. And then when my father got alzheimer’s, you wanted to worm your way into the family. No. No. I loved mike. Okay. Look. Do not lie to me again.

[ Sighs ] So, how did you manage to get us a private tour through the archives? I pulled a few strings. Oh, did you? Mm-hmm. I had no idea that you were gonna like it as much as you did, though. Are you kidding?

[ Laughs ] Seeing the artists’ work in different stages and hearing the tour guide just talk in such great detail — I loved it, and I feel like it’s gonna make me see art in a different way now. Yeah? How so? Mm. If I tell you, it’s gonna sound ridiculous. Tell me! Okay. Um… I feel like I’ve been looking at paintings through my eyes, my perspective only. And — and after learning about such amazing works of art, like the process, and the politics of the times, the materials, I feel like it helped me to see art from their perspective — like if I’m seeing it through their eyes. I’m sorry. I know that sounded ridiculous. I told you it would sound ridiculous. No, no. No, it doesn’t sound ridiculous at all. I think it makes perfect sense. Sorry. It was in with the article. It’s alright. I guess I was trying to decide what should be next on the list, and somehow the page got mixed up in the article. It’s a very impressive and diverse list. You helped me get rid of one of them. I saw that.

[ Chuckles ] Okay. What’s next? Skydiving.

[ Sighs ] What do you say? You want to help me knock another one off the list? Of course you’d have to pick that one first. Yes, monica, it was pointed out to me that the hospital board is a lot of work. Monica, I’ve got to go. I’ll see you at home. Chase? Are you alright? I’m fine. You’re clearly not fine. Did something happen to brook lynn? No. Is it your father? Did he fall down again?

The E.R.?I was just talking to finn. We should go get him. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, wait. Slow down. What — what are you talking about? Well, you were crying, so I thought that — that my father fell? I got hit with some pepper spray. It’s nothing. Oh. Oh.

[ Laughs awkwardly ] Don’t they teach you how to use that stuff? I hope it — I hope you feel better. Oh, no, not so fast. Wait. You’re not going anywhere until you tell me what’s going on. Nothing’s going on. I was mistaken. Ms. Quartermaine, I can see that you know something that I don’T. Now tell me what it is. So do you really think it makes sense when I talk about art? Mm-hmm.

[ Laughs ] Yeah. Yeah. Trina, when you look at a painting, you don’t just see brushstrokes and style and… balance, I don’t know. [ Laughs ] No, I think that you see the — you see the artist’s intent and you see their passion and the underlying humanity of the painting. And it really doesn’t even come as a surprise to me because I think that that’s just who you are. That’s who you’ve been since the day that I met you. You’re a vibrant person. You’re an empathetic person. And you’ve completed parts of me that I never even knew needed to be completed. And what we were able to share together this weekend is… it’s all I’ve ever wanted.

[ Chuckles ] I’ve been keeping secrets.

[ Laughs ] So I see. Yeah. Well, you know what? So have I. I think that’s the pattern in our relationship. After the fire, you were so despondent, I went looking for another home, and I found this place. And the deal was difficult, so martin stepped in and finessed the negotiation. Oh, god, I knew he was involved. You did? Yes. Because I followed you here one day. I didn’t know who it was that you were meeting, but then I remembered that martin had come to our hotel room with paperwork for you to sign, so then it kind of all made sense. I have given you far too many reasons not to trust me. Yes, you have. Anna: I don’t understand. Why would you feel the need to keep this secret? You never loved my dad. And if he hadn’t gotten alzheimer’s, he’d have seen that. You saw it as an opportunity to come into the family saying how great family is, how much you believed in family. And I let you go along with it because it was m-my dad’s last days and I wanted them to be good days. Or maybe I just believed a bit. I don’t know. It was true. It was a lie, like everything else! You used my dad like you used your son and you used sasha. And I’m gonna tell you right now, the days of you using anyone are over. Cody, let him go. What the hell is going on? Oh, thank god you’re here. This man tried to kill me, and your own officer witnessed it. That’s a lie. Of course she would side with him. She is a very sick woman. And he broke her out of here. Did you see what happened? I called her for assistance. Before she was about to call security, this officer stopped mr. Bell. Is that what happened? No. Dr. Montague was holding that syringe on miss gilmore. He threatened to kill her if I didn’t let him escape. Cuff him. Detective, maybe you should read him his rights. Dante: Will do. Dr. Montague, you’re under arrest. You have the right to remain silent… it’s finally over, sasha. Thank you, cody. Thank you.

No one can ever take away the time that we spent together this weekend. I’ll never forget it. And not just because of this beautiful necklace you gave me. This was actually a selfish gift. Now, whenever you wear it, I’ll be reminded of the incredible weekend that we had together, which I needed. It’s been so nice to have some time away from port charles and all of the distractions there. It’s made me see so much clearer just how much I love you.

[ Laughs ] I love you, too. You know, we still have time before we have to leave. Should we go out for one last meal?

[ Laughs ] You’re making it sound like we’re facing a firing squad. Well, I’m just trying to be considerate. I know that you haven’t eaten since breakfast, and you pointed out that one restaurant near lincoln center. Yeah, I’m a little hungry, but, um… I’d rather just eat here. At the hotel dining room? In bed. Oh, in bed? Oh, okay. That sounds pretty good. Room service it is. Valentin: At first, I kept it a secret because I-I didn’t know if we were gonna close, and I didn’t want to disappoint you. You didn’t want to disappoint me? Anna, I bought the house for you. Oh, for god’S… for us, so that we could move in here with charlotte. We could start a life together. Leave him there while you get the nurse’s official statement. So you thought cody should come to ferncliff for some official reason? Yeah. You know, mac, I thought it would look good on the department if he was evaluated, you know? Very clever. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, technically — you covered your ass. Yeah. So how did cody end up confronting montague? Well, montague was leaving ferncliff. Cody wanted to follow him, but I made him stay here, and I followed him. He looked like he was gonna leave. He took a turn down the dirt road near the entrance, ditched his car and came back here. And you got back here just in time to stop cody? Yeah. You know, this guy’s been drugging sasha for months, nearly killed her. Now, we got a solid witness in that nurse. Cody did good. Yeah, cody did good. That doctor’s going away for a long time. Thank you. I was so afraid this was all gonna blow up in our faces and dr. Montague would get away with it. But he didn’T. Yeah. And gladys won’t either. Can you excuse us for a second? Sure. Don’t — don’t — don’t — don’t leave me here with — I am sure sonny’s gonna do exactly what needs to be done. Sonny, please. Please.

[ Door closes ] I’m sorry. I’m so, so sorry. It was the gambling. It’s — it’s a disease, an addiction. And I had no control over it. I got in over my head and there was no way out. None of this was supposed to happen. But it did happen, gladys. And now you’re gonna pay. Look, chase, I-I think you should speak to your father. About what? My father only puts up with you because of brook lynn. So how could you know something about him falling that I don’t know? I didn’t say that I know anything. Tracy, damn it, just tell me what’s going on. I — oh, god, chase. Your father has als. Oh, my god. Pick something else. Alright. Skydiving is out. Machu picchu will have to wait. Yeah, definitely. I’ve got it.

[ Sighs ]

Ah, can’t we just stay like this forever? Yeah. I wish that the world worked that way. But there are people back in port charles who miss you, like your mom and your dad. Mm-hmm. Thinking about what happened to my dad made me realize how fragile life is. And thinking about what he’s going through right now makes me feel guilty for being so happy. No. Come on. No, they want you to be happy. Your mom might not be terribly pleased with the person who makes you happy, but — I-I just — I just think she’s being protective. Deep down, she knows that you’re a good person. She knows that you love your little brother and that you’d do anything to protect him. I just don’t want him to feel abandoned. He won’T.

[ Knock on door ] Man: Room service. Hey. Alright. You stay here. I’ll get it. Well, it certainly is a very beautiful house, valentin, in a gorgeous location. It’s perfect. I should have talked to you about it. I just wanted to ride in like your white knight and say, “here, anna, here’s a wonderful new home. Come live with me.” But I should have asked what you wanted. But you can’t blame me, ’cause all I’ve ever wanted is a life with you. Victor: My dearest charlotte, it is with a heavy heart that I must write to you and share my concerns about our family’s future, a family I cherish and would give my life for. My concern centers around your father and a path I believe he’s headed down, filled with unhappiness and danger. I’m afraid your father has gotten weak, charlotte. I had so much hope for him. But he’s forgotten how truly important family is since he’s fallen in love with anna devane. Anna has completely manipulated your father. She has taken advantage of his infatuation with her. God knows her charms escape me, but she’s used them to control your father. Her extensive training in espionage has afforded her the ability to mask who she really is. I tell you this — anna devane is not who she seems. Do not trust her. Not for a minute. And it is imperative you never forget you are strong, charlotte. The cassadine women are often the most formidable. Even if valentin brings anna further into your life, I know you’ll never succumb to her so-called charms. You won’t let her destroy what our family stands for. She is a liar, capable of treacherous deceit. Be wary and be warned. Be armed. You must stay strong. You must use any weapon you can to defeat anna, because your father clearly will do whatever she asks. And she will use his feelings. She will use your father and lead him into danger. She will lead him to his death. My dear charlotte, you are the only one who can protect your father from anna devane. You, his most cherished possession, must save him. To guide you, I’m giving you these very special tarot cards. They are powerful tools, charlotte. You’ll find them helpful. Use them wisely. Use them to protect and save your father, a man we both love dearly. Your ally and loving grandfather, victor cassadine.

Woman: Thank you for coming, everyone. Thank you newcomers. Namaste. Nama-hot. Well, that was a lot better than I ever thought it would be. Are you kidding? Right? Oh. Thank you for enduring the class. Oh, I’m glad you enjoyed it. I really did. I feel great. Oh, good. You know, actually, it wasn’t — it wasn’t that bad. So you’ll be back? No. Okay. What’s next? Uh, I guess a shower. No. I mean, what’s next on your bucket list? Oh, uh, I’m gonna wait to decide until after I tell chase. You haven’t told chase yet? No. No. He’s been so happy with brook lynn. And I know when I tell him I have als, it’s gonna break both of our hearts. Chase: Is it true? Yes. Is he here? No. I know this is difficult. Try to stay calm. Our father is dying. He was gonna tell you. Wait. How long has he known? A few months. What? A-and you have, too? No. He only told me a couple of weeks ago. A couple of weeks? How could I not know, but he tells the son who cut him out of his life for 20 years? This has been very difficult for him. Wait, and you knew? No, it wasn’t like that. Like what? Like you and my brother knew that my father was dying and nobody cared to tell me? Chase. Wait. Don’T…even think about it. And thank you, tracy, for being honest with me. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. I really thought that you knew. Yeah, well, obviously, you were mistaken. You saved my life, cody. You believed in me. Yeah, well, I wasn’t the only one. Only one what? That believed in sasha. He’s right. If you and sam hadn’t believed in me, I could have been locked in here for the rest of my life. Or worse. Well, this guy made a compelling case. And you know what, sam, you know, she believed in you from the beginning. She knew from the start there was something wrong, and she was determined to prove it. And when she is determined, it’s best just to stay out of the way… not a good feeling, is it, doc? Now you’re the one in sasha’s place. Trapped, helpless. Sit down, gladys. Sit down. Alright. In these situations, I think it’s always best for, you know, people like you to get everything off their chest before it’s all over. Over? Over? Yeah, I want you to tell me everything without whining and excuses. This is something that you need for your soul. The gambling debt was to selina wu. She threatened me, so I paid her with sasha’s money. I owed her even more when sasha wanted to end the guardianship, so I made a deal with montague to make sasha look unfit. He gave her a drug that was just supposed to confuse her. But, sonny, I swear to you — stop whining. I told you to stop whining. You used sasha, you took advantage of her love and trust, and you locked her in a living hell. Just say it! I used sasha and took advantage of her love and trust. Finish it. And I locked her in a living hell. That’s good. But now you’re gonna have to see what it’s gonna cost you. Frank!

Spencer: Okay. Boarding passes are downloaded and the bellhop has our bags. I’m so glad you left room in your suitcase, because I never would have gotten all the stuff that I brought here. I can’t even get it closed. Let me get it. Let me get it. Thank you. Ooph. Thank you. Okay, you all set? Yeah. Alright. Goodbye, room. Thank you. So you might not have handled this perfectly, but I — I do think the sentiment is kind of beautiful. You really think so? Yeah, I really do. Unfortunately, now that we have the house, the circumstances have kind of changed. Oh, what’s happened? Well, after the fire, I lost focus on what was going on with my daughter. Oh, yeah. You know, she’s had a lot of adjustments this year. Of course. She has. Boarding school. Life with laura and sam and dante and their kids. Yeah, yeah. She seems very happy now, though. But it’s made me realize that I need to give her my undivided attention right now. Okay, I get that. Yeah. I’m so sorry. I bought this house for you, and now I realize that it’s not the right time to ask you to come and live with us. I understand that charlotte — she needs some time alone. She does. Okay. You know, your love for your daughter is — is…very beautiful. Anna, I promise, as soon as everything is right, we’ll move in together. Victor: You must use any weapon

you can to defeat anna. I hope at some point, you’ll read my op-ed piece. I promise I’ll do it as soon as humanly possible. Thank you. Thank you for everything, alexis. Thank you. Hey, I’ve got a question. Shoot.You never read “anna karenina”? I’m starting it tonight. Finn. Finn. I’m so sorry. I-I saw that he was crying, and I naturally — not your fault. It’s not your fault, tracy. It’s — took way too long. We should have told him. I — I should have told him. He had a right to know. You were just trying to respect your father’s wishes. Finn, there’s no good way to handle a situation like this. But I handled it the wrong way. All wrong. Oh, cody, really screwed up this one, didn’t you? Mm. Assault. Kidnapping. My lawyers are going to explain this away just as a misunderstanding. I was merely defending myself. Mm. Yeah. You know, I don’t think that’s gonna happen, but just in case.

[ Groans ] Let’s go, cody. Everything okay? This man assaulted me again, and your officer saw it. Dante? No, mac, I didn’t see anything, actually. What? Mac: Daniels. Get the doctor ready to be transported back to the station and booked for attempted murder, among other things. I’m so sorry, sasha. It’s not your fault. He had a lot of people fooled. Sasha. Hey, you ready to get out of here? Can we go? Absolutely. Thank you. Frank’s gonna take you on a little ride. Sonny, please. To bridgeport, back to your old life. And if you leave bridgeport, I’ll know about it. Talk to anybody, you know, about the fact that we’re related, I’ll know it. If you — even if you put a quarter in a slot machine, I’ll know about it. You do any of those things, and frank’s gonna take you on another ride, which will be your last ride. I understand. Sonny, I don’t know how to thank you for everything. Don’t thank me. Get out of my sight. Don’t touch that luggage, ’cause that’s — sasha paid for that luggage. It’s not yours.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Ava, what the hell are you doing here? I thought you were on the run. Well, now I’m back. And I brought you a little surprise. Not that you deserve it after trying to kill me. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Save me the phony denials, CJ. I know you sent that woman to Bayview to murder me. And that’s why I’m here.

To end this. Now. End it how? See for yourself.

Mother! It’s you, it’s me! Mother? Oh,

that’s baby! So it’s my

You’re leaving Salem. Do you mean with Xander? Aren’t you getting married after all? No, um, now that Xander knows that he’s the father of Sarah’s baby, what he and I had, um, is over. I’m sorry. Yeah, me too. We obviously can’t live together anymore, and there’s no way I can stay at the Spectator, so without a job and no relationship, there’s nothing really keeping me here.

Come on, Victoria. Please just nap a little bit so that mommy can rest too. Ugh.

Sarah? Kate! What’s wrong? What’s wrong is that you have dragged my son into this psycho drama with Xander Cook and now you’ve put a target directly on Rex’s back.

What the hell do you want?

You mean, what am I doing here? You texted me to come over. What? Talk about Sarah’s baby. No, I didn’t. But, Sarah, I don’t have time for your games and your crap. Just stop lying. I’m not lying. I sent you a text. Then who did?

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

What’s that? It’s a text you sent me. That’s not my number. I didn’t send that. If you didn’t send this, who did? I don’t have a bloody clue, but since you’re here, Rex, look, we should talk about the baby. My baby. The one whose father you’re pretending to be. There’s no pretend here. I am legally Victoria’s father.

My name is on her birth certificate. You think a line on a piece of paper is going to keep me from my daughter? No, but a judge will. Then I’ll show the judge a DNA test that shows clearly that I’m Victoria’s biological father and you’re just some pathetic loser that Sarah roped into perpetuating a fraud.

We have been over this. You can fight it all you want but there’s not a court on the planet that is going to award you custody. So get over it. It’s over. Move on. Never. So, what’s the plan, Anzander, hmm? Well, for starters, you’re gonna give up any claim that you have to Victoria, and then you’re gonna divorce Sarah.

Oh, I’m so sorry, Kate. I’m, I’m quite sleep deprived at the moment. What, what are, what are you talking about? Okay, don’t try to play on my sympathies as a mother, because you have put my child directly in the line of fire. The line of fire? Okay. You know, maybe you want to have a romantic relationship with Xander Cook.

That is your decision. But you have been finally woken to the fact that he’s a homicidal maniac. So I do not appreciate you using my son as your human shield. I mean, what do you want, Sarah? Do you want to see Rex dead? Is that it?

Nigel, you were alive, but I didn’t think it was possible. I, I, I have so many questions, I don’t know where to begin.

What, just, you know what, start at the very beginning, like I always say, sweetheart. You, you, you look good, you sound good, are you, are you alright? Are you okay? Are you okay now? Well, especially now love you. Mother, I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you so much. PJ’s car’s down. It’s time to make the move. We have to get that confession.

We promised rape bombs. Don’t worry about it. Hey, Susan. Susan, I’m really glad that I was able to get you reunited with your son back home, but, um… You think you could help me out? Oh! You want me to help you out? Okay, you know what? I could do a reading for you, and, you know, a poem writing, or an oral reading.

No, no, no, not that kind of help, Susan. Just… Maybe you could ask your son to apologize for sending that woman to Bayview to murder me. Oh, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. You know what, son? You’re going to listen to your mama right now. Now you are going to confess your sins.

Right this moment. And you’re going to beg Ava for her forgiveness. Hmm?

Where will you go? Well, um, my parents and Parker are in New York, so it makes sense for me to go there. You know, I just need a little bit of… Time to process all of this and figure out what’s next. Alright. Well, thanks for telling me, Chloe. You didn’t have to. I wanted to. What, you thought I’d just take off without saying anything?

Um, well, in the past you might have. I wouldn’t have blamed you. Yeah, you’re right, but in the past I would have worried that this kind of news was going to send you into some obsessive tailspin. But, like I told you last night, Philip, I know that you have changed and I’m not worried about you anymore. I’m glad.

I’m glad, too. I’m so glad that you’re alive, and I’m so proud of you for doing all that work to get better. And reconnecting with you has been…

It has been pretty great.

New York’s beautiful this time of year. Yeah, I know. And a change of scenery will be good for me, but I will miss you.

Miss you too.

Of course I don’t want Rex dead. What kind of a question is that? The whole reason that you didn’t want Xander near your baby is because you were terrified of him, right? You knew he was a dangerous man. You knew that if he was in Victoria’s life that she would never be safe, right? That’s, that’s right.

Okay. So, it was alright if my son isn’t safe, though? I mean, I, I don’t get that. I, I, it, this plan of yours for him to pretend to be the father of your baby, did you really think that you could pull that off? My, yeah, my hope was that it would, the truth would never come out. Okay, but you knew that it would.

And when it did, Xander would be out for blood, right? I mean, the thing is, I understand you wanting to protect an innocent child, but why would you do that and risk my son’s life? I mean, is that okay? You’d have to ask your son. What the hell does that mean? What it means, Kate, is I didn’t come up with the idea to lie about Victoria’s paternity.

Rex did.

We just got married, you idiot. Your marriage is a joke. She only did it to stick it to me. She did it because she thinks you’re a threat to her daughter, which you are. You guys are both insane. If you think I’ll ever do anything to hurt Victoria, you, on the other hand, I’d have no problem causing you a great deal of pain.

You need to get out of my face and stay out of Sarah’s life and her baby’s. And if I don’t? What are you gonna do, Rex? Are you gonna kill me? Of course you aren’t.

He’s not gonna kill you. That’s my job.

I’ve showed her confessions are good for the show. Now I want you to admit to Ava what you did. And I want you to call off the assassin, hmm? Now I’m alive, sweetheart. There’s no need for vengeance now. There is another

sitting duck waiting for you. Right here in Salem, in fact. Another tag at home. It was accomplice, Xander Cook.

Oh my God. What is it? That’s good. Good. Do you know what to I, I, I have to go. I, I, I just remembered I have a critical business engagement. Well, wait a matter of, it’s a matter of life and death. I’ll be back soon. I love you so much, brother. I’ll be back. I promise. Oh, I forgot about me getting into that boy’s bonnet to make him run out of here so fast.

What the hell are you doing? I’m gonna shoot you, then I’m gonna put the gun in his hand. You know Rex? I know he’s going down for murder. Whose murder? Yours. I’m sure somebody heard you guys arguing. Once they hear this gunshot, they’ll call the cops. By the time they get here, I’ll be long gone. You’ll be dead.

And this poor sucker will take the rap for it.

So, what are your plans? Uh, actually I don’t have any. Just taking it one day at a time. Though I’m sure my mother has my entire life all mapped out for me. I’m sure she does. Truth is, she can plan all she wants. Us karaoke says we don’t stick to the script. Like to keep things interesting. Oh yeah? Like what’s going on with my family right now.

It’s like that show, the one with Cassandra and Rhett. Body and soul? You watch that. I’ve had a lot of time on my hands. Anyway, it’s been wild. First, Vivian shows up out of nowhere. Announces she’s entitled to my father’s entire fortune. Then they find his revised will. Thank God. So she gets nothing. Maggie gets half.

The other half goes to my brother Alex. Oh, yeah, I heard about that. Alex’s victor’s son. Your brother? That must be strange for you. Well, he was always family. Now he’s closer family. Me, Bo, and Alex. Victor’s three sons. Though I’m not sure where I belong in the new configuration, but I’ll figure it out. I’m sure Victor loved you all equally.

Yeah, I think he did. And although my dad and I didn’t have the smoothest relationship of all time, I loved him too. Very much. I just wish I had a chance to say goodbye.

But, luckily… No! That’s not the right word. Uh, it should be… Thankfully. I get to say goodbye to you.

Don’t be a stranger, okay? I won’t.

Bye.

Don’t leave me. Do you think that maybe you would… Want to try to figure things out in New York?

What the EJ is onto us? I don’t know. Well, I know we just missed our one chance to get him on tape admitting what he did to me. I mean, we could, we could wait and try again. No. No, no, no. When EJ saw his mother, that was the time. We’re not gonna get another chance. Look, I guess it’s time. I guess we go back down to the station and tell Rafe the bad news,

huh? You know, to come back, and I’m gonna get Harold to make us some fried bologna and manny sandwiches. Oh, Susan, I don’t really have much of an appetite. Oh, no, no, no. You gotta try one. Oh, they’re so delicious. You think, you know, Harold, he makes that lunch meat so crispy just the way I like it. Yeah, Susan, I think that Harris and I, we’re just gonna head out.

Oh. But um, before, before we do go, I want to say one thing to you.

When I had you in that car, I was in a very, very dark place. And um, I was hurt, and I was angry, and I wasn’t thinking straight. And the issues that I had, they were with EJ, they were not with you. And I never should have dragged you into it. And for that, I was wrong. And I am truly sorry. Live and

you shall be forgiven. That’s what the Bible says and that’s what I believe. Thank you, Susan. Thank you, I really am grateful for that. And I am so glad that you are okay. Okay. Oh, hold on, hold on! Wait, wait, wait! What’s, what’s uh, next for Miss Ava Vitae? I

don’t know, I um, I guess they’re gonna send me back to Bayview. Oh, you

know, given what happened to me and, and Big Crumb?

I don’t have to do this. I’d do it if I’m gonna get paid. I’ll pay you. I’ve got tons of cash in the other room. I’ll just run and get it. Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. I don’t think so. Listen, I know what you’re going through. I’ve been in your situation more times than I care to care. Not holding a gun on someone because I needed money.

I don’t need the money. I do this because I want to. I’m one of those lucky guys, I love my job. So someone hired you. Not back and guessing exactly who did that. Oh, and here he is. Hi, EJ. Come to make sure the job’s done right.

So, pretending to be the father of your baby, that was Rex’s idea? Bonnie Lockhart showed up unexpectedly to Rex’s place in Chicago and saw that I was pregnant and Rex jumped in and said the baby was his. So why didn’t you just tell her or anyone else that Rex was lying? You’re right. Yes, I could have. I could have.

You could have, but instead you decided to take advantage of his feelings for you. Well, hang on. I have always been completely honest about my feelings for Rex from the beginning. He knows that our relationship is purely platonic. Yeah, but you knew that he wanted a lot more, didn’t you? I mean, Roman and I just had breakfast with him this morning and, uh, well, he kind of laid out the, the whole plan, you know.

Even though the truth of Victoria is out, you’re going to stay married. He called me after he told you. He said that Roman was very understanding and that you were less so. Yeah, you’re right about that. Because even though Rex knows this relationship isn’t real, he’s going to do everything he can to win you back.

And you have him believing that the longer you play house together, the better the chances are that you’ll fall back in love with him. But we both know you won’t. I, I can’t predict the future, Kate. Can you? Yeah, in this case I can. Because you strung him along all the way up to the altar. You’re still feeding him false hope.

I knew there was something wrong with you and Rex right from the beginning because he was so secretive and he was so evasive about you. Two days in, before we find out about the birth of our grandchild that turns out not really to be our grandchild. But then again, all of it makes sense now, doesn’t it?

I’m sorry, Kate. I had to put my daughter first. Well, I’m not sorry. I need to put my son first. So you are greatly mistaken if you think I am going to stand by and let him take a bullet for you.

We have a deal, and I will honor my part by releasing you from your obligation to honor yours. Once I start a job, I need to finish it. Besides, this guy’s seen my face, and I don’t like to leave witnesses. Oh, there’s no problem there. I have a terrible memory for faces. I’m sure I’ll forget yours the moment you walk out that door.

You work for me. When I say the job is done, it’s done.

Fine. As long as I still get paid. You will.

I assume that you sent him here because of what I did to Susan. Why’d you call him off? Circumstances have changed. Oh, so?

Turns out my mother is still alive. Uh,

uh, come in, come in. Just, uh, take a seat, just give me a second, I want to finish this.

Okay, now what?

Susan? Yes! Susan

Delilah Banks! No, wait a minute, hold it, should it be me, or… Okay, I can just do confused, it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter. You’re alive. Oh my gosh. I’m not dreaming now, right? No, no, no. You’re not. You’re not dreaming. I’m real. I’m real. And if you don’t believe me, why don’t you come over here and give your good friend a great big hug.

So, Susan somehow managed to get out of the car before it blew up and, what, she’s been living it up across the pond? I wouldn’t say she’s been living it up, but yes, she survived the crash and has been in London this whole time. Oh my god, this is a miracle! Thank you, EJ! Well, thank you for coming here and telling me that.

I… And, thank you for stopping your goon from doing me in. Who are you calling? Who else? The cops. Why? Why do you think? I didn’t tell Ray Fernandes that you just hired somebody to put a bullet in

me. Sir Gray’s on a call. He should be back soon, I hope. He’s not.

Um, can you help me with this on, on my back? Yeah. Yeah? Mm hmm. Okay. Yeah, just go ahead and rip, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, just rip it off. Go ahead. Ooh. Okay. Um.

Thank you.

Like, I’m sorry we couldn’t get EJ to admit that he ordered that hit. Yeah. Me too. I was hoping it would help my case. And maybe even get the Salem PD and Rafe off my back. Maybe into my corner. Well, we may not have gotten the confession from EJ, but I mean, Susan being alive It’s gotta help.

Wait, wait. You were in London all this time? Yes, yes, I was, I was chained up in my ex hubby’s, that bedroom. I, I, I, until Ava Vitale and, and Harrish Michael showed up. Well, you must have done a wonderful job of helping them find you. Oh, yeah, I, well, but when they showed up to Edmund’s place, he took them prisoner, too.

But you know what? Thanks to Lord, we are all safe now. Yes, that’s all that matters. And… It’s a miracle, Dr. Marlena Evans?

Is being here and standing right with you right now. You so dang much. I’ve missed you too, Susan. Look, there’s something I just don’t understand. Uh, uh, so you, you crawled away from the car before it exploded. And, who found you and, and took you to Edmond? You know, much to my frustration and vexation, Uh, I still haven’t solved that one yet.

Doesn’t matter. You’re here now. With all the people that love you most in

the world. I like to say it. On hold. Are you sure you want to do this? Oh, I’m sure. And I’m sure Rafe would leave any excuse to lock you up. That is true. But I’m quite certain the Commissioner would relish the opportunity to put you behind bars as well. And what possible reason could he have to do that?

Well, the only reason you’re not in prison for kidnapping is that Rafe couldn’t find a witness to implicate you. Bonnie Kiriakis never saw your face, but my mother did. You have a point. Given the sheer hell you put Susan through, I have no doubt she’ll want to press charges against you. Unless… Unless what?

I could talk to her. Convince her to let it all go. As her one and only son, she’ll listen to me. But if I’m incarcerated, as you ratted me out to the cops… Forget it. She’ll get on the stand, tell a jury in extraordinary detail what you did to her, and then you’ll end up in a jail cell right next to me.

Despite Rex’s attempts at concealing the truth, you now know

that you’re a father. Do you really want to get to know your daughter in the visiting That is, if Sarah and her new husband would even allow it. But do you want to be free so you could fight for your daughter? So you can claim that little girl as your own. Well done, Counselor. You win. I do. Now, before I leave, let’s relieve, shall we?

Other guy was sent by the gas company to fix a leak. And I’ll talk to my mother, who will find it in her generous heart to forgive and forget. Alright, jackass. Wake up, nap time’s over. This may be hard

to hear, Kate, but… Rex is a grown man, and you need to let him make his own choices. Mm mm. No, it’s not about Rex making his own choices. It’s about me protecting him from a calculating predatory woman, and I’m never going to stop doing that. You’re using Rex. You’re using Rex to keep your ex husband away.

Look, I know that you’re worried about Xander hurting him. No, no, no, no. I’m also worried about you hurting him. And if you do, you’ll answer to me.

Get off me! Just put your right back down on the floor if you like. Dude, you did this? You used the baby to get me over here? Only to have some thug knock me out? I have no idea what you’re talking about. You hired somebody to knock me out! Don’t be ridiculous. No, no, no. We were talking about the baby. It got a bit heated.

You got very emotional and you fainted. Passed out. Shot. Hit your head on the ground. You’ve been out for half an hour. I know you did this. Because this is what you do. You hurt people. You knock them out. You kidnap them. You kill them. So I’ll tell you what, biology or not, you will never be Victoria’s father.

So do her and yourself a favor and stay the hell away from my family.

Chloe, what are you saying? You want me to move to New York with you? Okay, to be clear, I know that we both acknowledge that we have feelings for each other, but I literally just broke off my engagement and I’m nowhere near ready to jump into anything new, so if you did come, I can’t promise you anything, but I would still be really happy if we took this journey together.

And I think a change would be good for you too.

I totally get it. And look, I know I used to say I’d respect your boundaries and then blow right past them, but… I promise, Chloe, there won’t be any more of that. So, from here on out, nothing happens unless you’re comfortable with it. I know, that’s why I asked you to come. You’d really be okay with me tagging along?

At a respectable distance, with absolutely no pressure or expectations? I would be more than okay.

Then yes, I will accompany you to New York. Okay, great. So, this isn’t goodbye for us. But there are a few people that I need to tell that I’m leaving. Me too. Good luck with that. I’m gonna need it.

Yeah, I’m calling because I have some news. No, it’s not bad news. Nicole. Nicole, listen, I’m fine. I will be fine, uh, but I just don’t want to share it over the phone. So can we meet for lunch somewhere? Okay, great. Anywhere except the pub.

Hey, mom. Hey, sweetheart. I am so happy that I’m finally going to have a little quality time with one of my sons. I know how much you value our time together. So do I. Okay, um, I think I sense something here. I think I sense a butt coming. You know how much you value your time with me, butt? We’re not going to be having quite as much of it as you’d like.

Well, I think the worst they can do is send you back to Bayview. And if you go back, I’m going with you. Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to happen. Oh, it will if Dr. Evans says it should. Remember, I asked to be committed so nobody else could use me for their dirty work. Remember? Yeah, and I’m all for therapy, but I think you are way beyond needing to be locked up.

I’m sure if you asked Marlena, she’d just, she’d let you go. Or maybe I don’t want to ask her. I mean, look, we’ve been through a lot together. Almost killed by a fake nurse. Chained up by some crazy guy in London. There’s a lot of dangerous people in this world. And if you’re in there and I’m out here… Who’s going to wash my back?

It’s a nice back, by the way. Hey. I’m crazy. I’m not blind.

Mother! Mother, where are you?

Mother! Oh. Mother, I know you were here. There’s a bouquet of fried bologna mayonnaise in the air.

Where have you been? I just went to see my BFF M. E. M. D. Sorry?

My best friend forever, Marlena hmm?

I told you I had some business to take care of. Oh, more important than being with your mama who you thought you had lushed forever? There’s nothing more important than you, Mother. You know that. But now that all my business is taken care of, you have my undivided attention. Hmm,

this is what I’m going to find out from you, little shunny. When I was gone, did you behave yourself? Were you a good boy? Uh, I would love to say that I was, but where’s the fun in that? Oh,

have to your mom, don’t you?

Oh, I love you too, mama.

Stay away my arse.

Yes, sir, Xander Cook. There’s been a development in my case. Yeah, I just found out that Susan Banks is in fact alive and well. Well that does change things, doesn’t it? Changes everything. All of a sudden I’m a much more suitable parent. So, I want to sue for full custody of my daughter.

Oh, you will not believe what just happened to me. And I want to hear it, I do, but, um… There’s something I need to tell you first. What, what is it?

Sarah. It’s me, you can, you can tell me anything. Really, whatever it is, just, just, just say it.

I want a divorce.

Eric: Thank you.

Donna: You hear from the doctor?

Eric: No, they’re still waiting to set up some new tests, so I gotta wait for that.

[ Donna sighing ]

Donna: Cerebrovascular disease and TIA’s, huh? Mini strokes. If that’s what we’re dealing with, I think we need some answers fast.

Eric: Yeah.

Donna: You okay? Something, you, um, need to tell me or?

Eric: No. Everything’s just fine.

RJ: Hey.

Donna: Hi.

RJ: What’s going on? Is everyone okay?

[ Knocking on door ]

[ Finn sighing ]

Finn: Oh, hi.

Hope: Hey. Um, Steffy texted and said you needed this for a package for her and the kids in Europe?

Finn: Yeah, you guys had it, huh?

Hope: Yeah, Kelly’s sequin pillow.

Finn: Wow. I’m surprised she left without it. Um, thanks for bringing it by. I mean, you didn’t have to come all the way up here.

Hope: Oh, I’ve been up since four A.M. anyways. You know, just trouble sleeping these days. Life.

Finn: Yeah. Well, I can, um, I can relate. It sounds like your life has been a little bit complicated too lately.

Hope: Well, thank you for downplaying it.

Finn: Hm. You know, we don’t get the chance to talk much. Obviously, I’m aware of the whole interaction with Thomas in Rome and I’m not sure exactly where that stands now, but I just wanted to say, you– you’re better than Thomas.

Sheila: Are we really doing this?

Deacon: Oh, baby, we’re doing this.

Sheila: Engaged?

Deacon: I’m gonna get you a ring.

Sheila: I really don’t care about a ring.

Deacon: No, no, no. I’m getting you one. You deserve one. You deserve everything life has to offer, including a second chance.

Sheila: Well, maybe I should have you talk to my son for me.

Deacon: Yeah. Yeah, speaking of that, I’m gonna have to figure out a way to tell Hope about this.

Sheila: Yeah, I wonder how Finn’s gonna react.

Sheila: You know, we should probably keep our engagement on the down low until we figure out how to break the news.

Deacon: Our secret. Our little bubble here. No one messing with it. Sound good?

Sheila: Yeah. I– I still can’t believe, you know, the lengths that you went through. The judge, for me, insuring my freedom and then, on top of all of that, you– you popped the question.

Deacon: I can’t help myself. I’m crazy about you.

Sheila: There’s that word again.

[ Both chuckling ]

Sheila: I just hope you’re not crazy at the expense of your relationship with Hope.

Hope: Well, everyone seems to have an opinion about my personal life these days.

Finn: Sorry. You know, I probably shouldn’t have said anything. You know, especially since I’m speaking poorly about my brother-in-law.

Hope: Welp.

Finn: Well, it’s just we all know his history, you know? And the things that he’s done, especially to you.

Hope: Join the peanut gallery. I mean, you sound like my mom or RJ or my dad.

Finn: Well, maybe you should listen to them. I mean, look, I get it. You guys, you work together, you co-parent Douglas, but there’s just always been this Svengali quality to Thomas. Hope, I’ve always thought very highly of you and I just want what’s best for you.

RJ: Granddad, you sure you’re good?

Eric: Am I sure I’m good?

RJ: Yeah.

Eric: Yeah, I’m good with you at my side. I’m good, yeah.

RJ: So, you’re okay? You know, besides the tremors, you’re–

Eric: I’m okay, I’m okay. I’ve got you. Look at you. I can’t tell you how much that means to me. Look what you’re doing! Look what you’re doing. You’re a great designer, you are, and your loyalty, it means so much to me. I want you to keep this secret from everybody about the tremors, and most especially from Ridge.

Sheila: My fiancé, my fiancé, my fiancé. I like the way that sounds. God, I wish I could just stay like this forever because when the news gets out, it’s gonna send shockwaves through our families.

Deacon: Yeah. Hope and Brooke are definitely gonna be stunned, to say the least. Probably be disappointed, but you know, hey, I gotta believe that after a while, I’m gonna get through to them. Especially Hope.

Sheila: I sincerely wish that for you. And I sincerely wish that Finn could be free of Steffy so that I could have another chance.

Finn: Here you go.

Hope: Oh, wow, thank you. You really didn’t have to.

Finn: Oh, no. It’s the least I can do after you brought Kelly’s pillow all this way. You know, after she won that at the carnival, she wouldn’t let it out of her sight. Right?

Hope: Well, I’m glad they will be reunited soon.

Finn: So, how are you doing with everything? I mean, I know I’m going crazy here without Steffy and the kids and you know, we’re still together. I can only imagine for you. Sorry, I– I don’t mean to overstep. I just, I’m trying to make sure you’re doing all right.

Hope: No, I– I– I appreciate that. Um… okay, if I– I’m being honest, uh, yeah, no, it hasn’t been easy trying to adjust to the new normal and the new schedule for the kids, dealing with work while my marriage is– has fallen apart. Um… sometimes, it just… I get sad. All those years, just… with Liam and his divided heart.

Eric: More than anything, I want this collection to exude opulence. You know what I’m thinking? I’m thinking diamonds through the bodice.

Donna: Diamonds? Gorgeous.

RJ: And expensive.

Eric: Whose side are you on?

RJ: No, I’m just saying, that’s a lot for a design, that, you know, might not–

Eric: You don’t think we’re gonna win this thing?

RJ: No, no, yeah. I think we’re gonna win.

Eric: Okay, good. You know, one thing I’ve learned in all my years of design is that you can’t cut corners with design. You don’t sacrifice quality for speed or cost, and always use the company credit card.

RJ: Yeah. Well, yeah. It’s your company.

Eric: Yeah, you got that right. We should do diamonds on every one of these designs. I’d love to see the look on Carter and Ridge’s face when they see the invoice.

Donna: Oh, you are so bad.

Eric: You got that right. Now, we’re gonna win this thing. We can do it. And when we do win it, I’m gonna take back this company. I’m gonna take back my company and my office and I’m gonna put my final stamp on this– on this fashion house that I created. Forrester Creations.

Deacon: Sheila, did I hear you correctly? That now you want Finn and Steffy’s marriage to end?

Sheila: I’m not saying that, but I can’t forget that Steffy took the kids and went halfway around the world and abandoned my son.

Deacon: Babe, you know why she did that, right?

Sheila: I am not a threat to Steffy. I just want a place in my son’s life.

Deacon: Okay, good. Just checking. Come here. I believe in you.

Hope: A lot has changed for me since that kiss with Thomas in Rome. It was a catalyst for me to address some deep-seated issues with Liam, with myself. And while I never doubted Liam’s love for me, I also, unfortunately, never doubted his love for Steffy either. Which I am sorry, no– that’s– I shouldn’t. That’s inappropriate. I don’t want to undermine what you two–

Finn: No, you’re not. You’re not. I get it. Um, Steffy and the kids, they’ve been, um, they’ve been gone a while and it’s been extremely tough, you know, but I just want my wife and kids back.

Hope: Is there any progress on that front? I mean, I know Sheila is still a threat.

Finn: Yeah, but I– I talk to Steffy everyday. We text and call each other.

Hope: Well, Finn, you’ve always been devoted to Steffy and that commitment, that is a strength. Steffy is lucky to have you.

Finn: You wanna tell her that?

[ Hope chuckling ]

Finn: That’s– that’s really kind though, thanks. Look, and I feel for you, what you’re going through with Liam. And I don’t know exactly where you stand with Thomas, but just hearing what you’re saying and talking about this self-discovery, I just think that you’re drawn to Thomas because he’s totally focused on you and only you.

RJ: So, Granddad went to go get his medication?

Donna: Yep.

RJ: For his tremors.

Donna: Yeah.

RJ: Donna, hey. It’s just us two, okay? You can talk to me.

Donna: Sure. Yeah, of course.

RJ: He’s– he’s– I don’t know, like he’s off or– or something’s off and affecting him. Like, I– I just feel like I don’t know everything that’s– that’s going on with his health because, you know, he said that it was arthritis, he said that it was carpal tunnel and he has these tremors.

Donna: Mm-hmm.

RJ: And we both have seen it. It’s gotten consistently worse, all right?

Donna: Uh–

RJ: Listen. Please, Donna. Tell me what’s really going on with him.

Donna: Listen, you gotta– you have to promise not to say anything to anyone, okay?

RJ: Say– say what to anyone?

Donna: The doctor feels that, um, Eric might be suffering from cerebrovascular disease or TIA’s. Mini strokes.

RJ: He’s having strokes?

Donna: Yeah. And if he has, um, if anything happens like a blood clot or something, Eric could die. And that’s why, um, that’s why he feels like he’s running out of time and, um, why he has to finish this collection.

Donna: Cerebrovascular disease or TIA’s? So, it’s neurological?

[ Eric coughing ]

[ Eric panting ]

Finn: I’m– I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to make you feel uncomfortable.

Hope: No, it’s– it’s okay. I mean, talking to someone other than my family is actually probably the healthy thing to do.

Finn: You know, I do know his history and his obsession. And look, Taylor and– and Ridge and Steffy, they all think that he’s changed.

Hope: I do, too.

Finn: I can only imagine, like, what the difference is for you. I mean, you go from Liam and his never ending divided feelings, to Thomas, someone who is intense and laser focused with his attention on you and only you. I mean, that must feel so good to have that. Look, and I’m sure Steffy feels something similar. You know, she has me, someone who is totally committed to her versus all those years that she was involved with Liam.

Hope: Well, like I said, she’s lucky to have you.

Finn: Yeah, I’m not sure she feels that way right now. But look, I’m not gonna let Steffy get sucked into that old rut. I’m determined to get Steffy back and reunite my family.

Hope: And I’m sure you will. That devotion is admirable.

Finn: I mean, even like, the way you talk about devotion, it’s… it’s almost like you’ve always been chasing it, you know, and now you have that. With Thomas. But, do you really want to be with him? Like, with all that history?

[ Hope chuckling ]

Hope: Well, uh, clearly, I believe in second chances, third chances, fourth chances, fifth chances, but I also believe that people can change. And being with Thomas, knowing that he is dedicated and loyal to me, I mean, that is a big change from the indecisiveness and the heartache that would sometimes come along with being with Liam. Uh… I guess I didn’t realize how much it was weighing me down. Sometimes, it isn’t until that weight is lifted that you suddenly realize, um… how ground down you were. The sadness and the heaviness of it all. Um, and growing up, you know, watching my mom in pain because of a man’s divided heart, I swore that I would never be like her, and yet, there I was, perpetuating that same cycle with a man with a divided heart. I mean, is it really so hard to ask to be loved by a man who just… loves me and only me?

Finn: Hey.

Hope: I’m sorry.

Finn: No, it’s okay.

Hope: No, it’s embarrassing.

Finn: It’s okay.

Hope: I’m sorry, Finn.

Update written by Joseph

EJ asks Ava what the hell she is doing at the DiMera Mansion as he thought she was on the run. Ava responds that she’s back now and she brought him a little surprise, not that he deserves it after trying to kill her. EJ claims to have no idea what she’s talking about. Ava tells him to spare her the phony denials as she knows he sent that woman to murder her at Bayview and that’s why she is here, to end this now. EJ asks how she plans to do that. Ava tells him to see for himself as Harris then brings in Susan, leaving EJ in disbelief. Susan runs up and hugs EJ.

Chloe meets Philip in the park to inform him that she’s leaving in Salem. Philip asks if she means with Xander. Chloe says no as now that Xander knows he’s the father of Sarah’s baby, what they had is over. Philip says he’s sorry. Chloe says she is too but they obviously can’t live together anymore and she can’t stay at the Spectator, so without a job and no relationship, there is nothing keeping her here.

Sarah is at the Kiriakis Mansion, hoping she can rest after putting baby Victoria down for a nap. Kate then walks in and startles her. Sarah asks what’s wrong. Kate complains that Sarah has dragged Rex in to this psycho drama with Xander and put a target directly on Rex’s back.

Rex shows up at Xander’s door. Xander questions what he wants while Bronson loads his gun behind them. Rex states that Xander texted him to come over which Xander denies. Rex says he has no time for his games and tells him to stop lying. Xander insists that he’s not and he didn’t send him a text, so Rex questions who did. Rex then shows Xander the text but Xander says that’s not his number. Rex asks again who sent it. Xander says he has no clue, but since he is there, they should talk about his baby. Rex argues that his name is on the birth certificate. Xander argues that it doesn’t change things and that he can show a judge a DNA test. Rex says he can fight it all he wants but no court will ever grant him custody so he should get over it and move on but Xander refuses. Xander tells Rex to give up any claim he has to Victoria and then divorce Sarah.

Sarah apologizes to Kate and asks what she is talking about. Kate tells her not to play on her sympathy as a mother because she has put her child directly in the line of fire. Kate says Sarah might want a romantic relationship with Xander and that’s her decision, but he is a homicidal maniac, so she does not appreciate using Rex as a human shield. Kate asks if Sarah wants to see Rex dead.

EJ tells Susan that he didn’t think it was possible that she could be alive and says he has so many questions but doesn’t know where to begin. EJ asks if she’s alright. Susan says she is, especially now that she is with her son. EJ tells her that he’s missed her so much as they embrace. Harris whispers to Ava that while EJ is so distracted, it’s time to make the move to get the confession they promised Rafe while he’s still wearing a wire. Ava then tells Susan that she was really glad that she could reunite her with her son but asks if she could help her out by asking EJ to apologize for sending the woman to Bayview to murder her. Susan tells EJ to confess his sins and beg Ava for her forgiveness.

Philip asks where Chloe is going. Chloe says her parents and Parker are in New York so that makes sense. Chloe adds that she just needs time to process all of this and figure out what’s next. Philip thanks her for telling him when she didn’t have to. Chloe says she wanted to and that she wouldn’t take off without saying anything. Philip notes that in the past she might have and he wouldn’t have blamed her. Chloe says in the past, she would have worried that this would send him in to an obsessive tailspin but she knows he’s changed and she’s not worried about him anymore. Chloe says she’s glad that he’s alive and she’s so proud of him for doing the work to get better. Chloe adds that reconnecting with him has been pretty great. Chloe comments that a change of scenery will be good for her but admits that she will miss him. Philip says he’ll miss her too.

Sarah tells Kate that she doesn’t want Rex dead and asks what kind of question that is. Kate argues that Sarah didn’t want Xander near her baby because she was terrified of him and knew he was a dangerous man and that she’d never be safe which Sarah confirms. Kate questions if it’s alright that Rex isn’t safe and says she doesn’t get her plan for Rex to pretend to be the father of the baby and asks if she really thought she could pull that off. Sarah hoped the truth would never come out. Kate argues that she knew Xander would be out for blood when it did come out. Kate questions why Sarah would do this and risk Rex’s life, asking if that’s okay. Sarah tells Kate to ask Rex because she didn’t come up with the idea to lie about Victoria’s paternity, Rex did

Rex tells Xander that he and Sarah just got married. Xander argues that Sarah only did that to stick it to him. Xander says he would never harm Victoria but he will cause Rex a great deal of pain. Rex warns Xander to stay out of their lives. Xander asks what he’s going to do, kill him. Bronson then suddenly hits Rex from behind and knocks him out. Bronson pulls his gun on Xander and declares that Rex isn’t going to kill him, because that’s his job.

Susan tells EJ that confessions are good for the soul, so she wants him to admit to Ava what he did and she wants him to call off the assassin. Susan points out that she’s alive, so there’s no need for vengeance now. EJ thinks back to sending Bronson after Xander and comes to a realization. EJ says he has to go as he just remembered a critical business arrangement that’s a matter of life and death. EJ says he’ll be back soon and rushes out of the mansion. Susan questions what would make EJ run out so fast.

Xander questions what Bronson is doing. Bronson responds that he’s going to shoot him and then put the gun in Rex’s hand. Xander asks if he knows Rex. Bronson says he knows Rex will go down for murder. Bronson explains that he’s sure neighbors heard them arguing, so by the time the cops come, he’ll be gone and Rex will take the fall for murdering Xander.

Chloe asks what Philip’s plans are. Philip responds that he doesn’t have any and he’s just taking it one day at a time, but jokes that he’s sure Kate has his entire life planned out for him. Philip remarks that the Kiriakis family doesn’t stick to the script and they keep things interesting. Philip jokes that it’s like Body and Soul. Chloe questions him watching that. Philip says he had a lot of time on his hands. Philip talks about Vivian showing up and how they found the will and now the estate goes to Maggie and Alex. Chloe mentions hearing that Alex is Victor’s son and Philip’s brother and how that must be strange for him. Philip acknowledges that Alex was always family, so now he’s just closer family. Philip comments on he, Alex, and Bo being Victor’s three sons but says he’s not sure where he fits in but he’ll figure it out. Chloe is sure that Victor loved them all equally which Philip agrees with. Philip acknowledges that he and Victor didn’t have the smoothest relationship, but he loved him very much and wishes he had the chance to say goodbye. Philip then declares that thankfully he at least gets to say goodbye to Chloe as he hugs her. Philip tells Chloe not to be a stranger and says goodbye. Philip turns to walk away but Chloe stops him and asks if he would want to try to figure things out in New York.

Ava asks Harris what just happened and if EJ is onto them. Ava worries that they missed their one chance to get EJ on tape admitting what he did to her. Harris says they could wait until he comes back but Ava is certain they won’t get another chance. Ava guesses they have to go back to the station to tell Rafe the bad news. Susan comes back in and suggests they all sit down and wait for EJ to come back. Ava says she and Harris were going to head out. Ava tells Susan that before they go, she wants to tell her that when she had her in that car, she was in a very bad place where she was hurt, angry, and not thinking straight. Ava states that her issues were with EJ, not Susan, and she never should’ve dragged her in to it. Ava admits that she was wrong and is truly sorry. Susan talks about believing in forgiveness like in the Bible. Ava says she’s grateful for that and she’s glad that Susan is okay. Ava goes to leave but Susan stops her and asks what’s next for her. Ava responds that she doesn’t know and guesses she will be sent back to Bayview. Susan suggests that could be the one place in the world to keep her safe. Ava and Harris then exit together.

Xander tells Bronson that he doesn’t have to do this. Bronson says he’s getting paid to. Xander offers to pay him but Bronson declines. Xander talks about being in Bronson’s situation. Bronson clarifies that he doesn’t need the money but he loves his job. Xander realizes someone hired him and guesses he knows who did that. EJ then bursts in. Xander asks if EJ came to make sure the job is done right.

Kate is surprised to learn that pretending to be the father of Sarah’s baby was Rex’s idea. Sarah explains that Bonnie showed up unexpectedly in Chicago and saw that she was pregnant, so Rex jumped in and said the baby was his. Kate asks why she didn’t just say that Rex was lying. Sarah admits she could have. Kate accuses Sarah of taking advantage of Rex’s feelings for her. Sarah argues that Rex has always known their relationship was platonic while Kate argues that Sarah knew that Rex wanted a lot more. Kate notes that she and Roman just had breakfast with Rex and he laid out his whole plan of how they are going to stay married. Sarah confirms that Rex called her and told her that Roman was very understanding while Kate was less so which Kate admits. Kate says even though Rex knows the relationship isn’t real, he’s going to do everything he can to win her back while Sarah will let him believe there’s a chance she will fall back in love with him when they both know she won’t. Sarah argues that they can’t predict the future. Kate accuses Sarah of stringing Rex along all the way to the altar and still feeding him false hope. Kate talks about knowing something was wrong with their relationship all along and says now it all makes sense. Sarah apologizes and says she had to put her daughter first. Kate responds that she’s not sorry for putting her son first, so Sarah is mistaken if she thinks she’s going to stand by and let Rex take a bullet for her.

EJ instructs Bronson to put the gun down. Bronson argues that they had a deal. EJ agrees to do his part while releasing him from his. Bronson insists that he needs to finish a job when he starts and adds that Xander will be a witness. Xander assures he’ll forget his face. EJ reminds Bronson that he works for him and he’s telling him that the job is done. Bronson agrees as long as he still gets paid which EJ assures he will. Bronson then gathers his things and exits. Xander assumes EJ sent Bronson because of what he did to Susan and questions why he called him off. EJ reveals that the circumstances have changed as it turns out that Susan is still alive, which shocks Xander.

Susan Banks goes to Marlena’s office to surprise her. Marlena can’t believe that Susan is alive and she’s not dreaming. Susan and Marlena then embrace.

Xander questions that Susan somehow managed to get out of the car before it blew up and she’s been living it up in London. EJ confirms she survived the crash and has been living in London. Xander excitedly calls this a miracle and thanks EJ for telling him and for stopping his goon from doing him in. Xander then grabs his phone and says he’s calling the cops to tell Rafe that EJ just hired somebody to put a bullet in him.

Ava walks in to the interrogation room where Harris has his shirt lifted up. Harris then asks her to help him with removing the wire which she does. They get close as Harris thanks her. Harris is sorry they couldn’t get EJ to admit he ordered the hit. Ava hoped it would help her case and maybe get the police off her back. Harris says they may not have gotten the confession from EJ, but Susan being alive has to help.

Marlena questions Susan being in London all this time. Susan explains that she was chained up in her ex husband’s back bedroom until Ava and Harris showed up. Marlena guesses Susan must have done a wonderful job of helping them find her. Susan admits that Ava and Harris got taken prisoner too at first but what matters is that they are all safe now. Marlena calls it a miracle. Susan tells Marlena that she missed her so much. Marlena says she missed her too but she doesn’t understand who found Susan to take her to Edmund in London. Susan says she still hasn’t solved that one yet. Marlena decides it doesn’t matter since she’s here now with all the people who love her the most in the world as they hug.

Xander tells EJ that he’s on hold. EJ asks if he’s sure he wants to do this. Xander is sure Rafe would love any excuse to lock EJ up. EJ is sure Rafe would relish the opportunity to put Xander behind bars too, reminding him that he’s only not in prison because Rafe couldn’t find a witness to implicate him since Bonnie never saw Xander’s face but Susan did. EJ adds that he’s sure Susan would like to press charges against Xander but he could convince her to let it go unless he’s incarcerated after Xander calls the cops. EJ states that Susan will go in to detail on what Xander did to her, so he’ll end up in a jail cell right next to him. EJ questions if Xander really wants to get to know his daughter in the visiting room in prison if Sarah and Rex would even allow it or if he wants to be free so he can fight for his daughter. Xander reluctantly admits that EJ wins and hangs up the phone. Xander agrees to say that EJ and Bronson were never there while EJ agrees to make sure Susan finds it in her heart to forgive and forget. EJ then exits the apartment. Xander then tells Rex to wake up.

Sarah tells Kate that Rex is a grown man, so she needs to let him make his own choices. Kate argues that it’s not about his own choices but her protecting him from a calculating predatory woman. Kate accuses Sarah of using Rex to keep Xander away. Kate adds that she’s also worried about Sarah hurting Rex and warns that if she does, she will naswer to her. Kate then exits the mansion.

Rex wakes up and questions what the hell happened. Rex accuses Xander of using the baby to get him over, only to have some thug knock him out. Xander claims not to know what he’s talking about and that Rex just fainted. Rex insists that he knows Xander did this because he hurts people, knocks people out, kidnaps them and kills them. Rex declares that biology or not, he will never be Victoria’s father. Rex tells Xander to stay the hell away from his family as he rushes out of the apartment.

Philip questions Chloe wanting him to move to New York with him. Chloe clarifies that she knows they both acknowledged that they have feelings for each other, but she just broke off her engagement and isn’t ready to jump in to anything new so she can’t promise him anything, but she’d still be really happy if they took this journey together. Chloe thinks the change would be good for him too. Philip says he gets it and promises to respect her boundaries. Philip states that nothing happens unless she’s comfortable with it. Chloe says that’s why she asked him to come. Philip asks if she’s sure she’s okay with him tagging along which she assures. Philip then agrees to accompany her to New York. Chloe decides this isn’t goodbye for them then, but there are a few people that she needs to tell that she is leaving. Philip says he does too so Chloe wishes him luck with that. Chloe calls Nicole and says she has news but she doesn’t want to share it over the phone, so she asks to meet for lunch anywhere except the Pub.

Philip meets Kate at the Brady Pub. Kate tells him that she’s so happy to have quality time with one of her sons. Philip says he knows how much she values their time together and he does too, but they aren’t going to be having quite as much of it as she would like.

Harris thinks the worst they can do is send Ava back to Bayview and if she goes back, he’s going with her. Ava doesn’t think that’s going to happen. Harris says it will if Marlena says so, reminding her that he asked to be committed. Ava thinks Harris is beyond needing to be locked up and that Marlena would say he doesn’t need it. Harris talks about all they have been through together and says there are a lot of dangerous people in the world. Harris asks who is going to watch his back if she’s in Bayview while he’s not. Ava compliments his back and says she’s crazy but not blind.

EJ goes home looking for Susan. Susan then joins him in the living room and says she just went to see Marlena so she would know she’s alive. Susan asks where EJ ran off. EJ repeats that he had business to take care of. Susan questions it being more important than being with her. EJ assures nothing is more important than that but now all his business is taken care of so she has his undivided attention. Susan then asks if EJ behaved himself while she was gone. EJ would love to say that he was but asks where the fun is in that as he hugs her.

Xander complains about Rex ordering him to stay away and calls his attorney to say there’s been a development in his case as he just found out Susan Banks is alive and well which changes everything as he’s suddenly a more suitable parent, so he wants to sue for full custody of his daughter.

Rex goes to the Kiriakis Mansion and tells Sarah that she won’t believe what just happened to him. Sarah says she wants to hear it but there’s something she has to tell him first. Rex questions what it is and says she can tell him anything. Rex tells her to just say whatever it is. Sarah holds back tears as she tells Rex that she wants a divorce.

Update written by Joseph

Rex and Philip sit together at the Brady Pub. Philip talks about being relieved that they found Victor’s will and Maggie gets to move back in to the Kiriakis Mansion. Philip calls Vivian a very bad person who he’s thrilled to be rid of. Rex relates to wishing he and Sarah could be rid of Xander. Rex adds that Xander has made it very clear that he has no intention of staying away from Sarah or the baby.

Chloe sits at home on the phone with her mom. Chloe talks about everything being new but she hasn’t had a chance to talk to Xander since he didn’t come home last night. Chloe then hangs up when Xander comes home. Chloe asks if he’s okay and asks where he was. Xander apologizes for worrying her and says he slept in his office as the day was just so crazy that he needed time to process it but he knows he should’ve called her. Chloe says she understands. Xander doesn’t know what to say. Chloe responds that while he was gone, she did some thinking too about her moving out.

At the DiMera Mansion, EJ meets with Bronson, the man he had as his hospital contact, keeping an eye on Joyce. EJ explains that he is now representing Joyce and has advised her to remain silent. EJ then tells Bronson that he has a new job for him as he wants him to take over Joyce’s. EJ declares that he wants him to find and kill Ava Vitali.

In London, Ava tells Susan that she has to get them out of here since she lured her and Harris to London with her mental telegrams. Ava suggests Susan try sending a psychic message to someone who can help them out. Susan doesn’t know if she can do that. Ava warns him to figure it out soon or else Edmund is going to end up shooting someone.

Rafe informs Edmund that Ava and Harris were under the impression that Susan was still alive. Edmund calls that impossible since she was blown up in a car crash. Rafe says they believe they came to Edmund’s apartment. Edmund claims he hasn’t seen them. Tripp reveals that they looked up his address before going missing. Edmund says he’ll let them know if they show up. Rafe asks if he minds if they take a look around. Edmund then pulls his gun out and declares that he does mind. Rafe questions what’s going on and what the problem is. Edmund reveals that if he allows them to look around, they will certainly find his guests and he just can’t have that.

EJ tells Bronson that Ava is missing. He brings up Rafe wanting to put EJ away for years and questions giving him a reason to turn up the heat. EJ responds that he’s not worried about Rafe and feels he’s waited too long to get vengeance for his mother. EJ adds that Ava is trying to convince people that Susan is still alive. EJ says that couldn’t be so either Ava is delusional or she’s trying to trick him in to backing off. EJ declares that either way, he wants her dead.

Susan tells Ava that her gifts don’t work like that. Ava encourages her to try. Harris says there has to be someone she can reach. Ava tells Susan to focus and reach out to someone who can come save them. Susan doesn’t think it’s going to work but then she has a vision of Edmund pulling a gun on Rafe and Tripp. Ava asks if she saw something. Susan explains that she saw an image of Edmund pointing a gun at Ava’s son.

Tripp asks Edmund who his guests are. Edmund admits they are the two people they came looking for. Tripp questions what he did with his mother. Edmund questions Tripp being Ava’s son and brings up what Ava did to Susan. Edmund argues that Ava did her best to put out Susan’s light. Edmund remarks that Ava hurt him deeply, so now he’s going to hurt her deeply by killing her son. Rafe tells Edmund that no one needs to get hurt here. Rafe says they all see he’s suffering. Edmund argues that he has no idea and calls Susan his one true love. Edmund talks about wanting to keep her safe from the cruel world. Rafe calls her death a horrible tragedy. Edmund talks about it haunting him. Edmund says they were apart for years but he always hoped they would reunite. Edmund argues that Susan mistook his devotion for obsession because he said he would do anything to take care of her, even kill. Rafe argues that Susan’s gone so he doesn’t have to do that now. Rafe asks for the gun. Edmund warns Rafe to stand aside or else he’ll shoot him first and Tripp second.

Ava asks Susan if she’s saying Tripp is there. Susan responds that it sounds like he’s right out there in the living room and Edmund has a gun on him. Ava tries screaming for Tripp that they are back there. Susan tells her that won’t work since the whole place is soundproof. Susan starts to ramble until Ava yells at her to just stop talking. Ava then pleads with Harris to get out there and save Tripp.

EJ asks Bronson if he wants the assignment or not. Bronson responds that if he wants Ava dead, he will make her dead but he doesn’t know where she could be now. EJ says that he’s working on locating her, but until that happens there’s another sitting duck waiting for him in Salem and that’s Ava’s accomplice, Xander Cook.

Rex and Philip talk about Sarah wanting to keep her baby away from Xander. Rex brings up what Xander did to Susan and questions why he’s not in prison. Philip asks if Sarah doesn’t still have feelings for Xander. Rex says there’s only disgust, noting that Xander lied to Sarah over and over. Philip brings up that Rex and Sarah have had their issues too. Rex admits that he still has a lot of work to do to regain Sarah’s trust. Rex adds that unless Xander found a way to resurrect Susan Banks, there’s no way that Sarah is letting him back in to her life or her daughter’s.

Xander tells Chloe that he knows he just found out that he’s the father of Victoria. Chloe assumes that Xander wants to work things out with Sarah as she knows he loved her for a long time and maybe he still does. Xander insists that he doesn’t love Sarah anymore after she tried to keep his child from him and put another man’s name on his child’s birth certificate. Chloe agrees that he has every right to feel hurt and betrayed which is why she knew she had to tell him the truth that she overheard from Rex and Philip. Xander states that moment proved he could trust Chloe and he knows their relationship is strong and honest which he is so grateful for. Xander declares that he’s going to fight Sarah for the baby and he needs Chloe by his side when he does that.

EJ informs Bronson that Xander Cook kidnapped and terrorized Susan so he’s the reason that she ended up in the car with Ava. Bronson agrees that Xander deserves what’s coming to him but asks again if it’s safe considering EJ is already under suspicion for what happened with Ava, so if Xander takes a bullet then a lot of blowback will come EJ’s way. EJ reveals that he’s prepared for it and that’s why he’s going to frame Rex Brady for Xander’s murder.

Rex admits to Philip that Chloe overhearing them talking about Sarah really complicated things. Philip hopes he doesn’t blame Chloe for telling Xander. Rex understands she just did what she thought was right and that secrets have a way of coming out. Rex adds that Chloe also heard Philip say that he’s still in love with her and asks how she took that. Philip admits it was better than he could’ve imagined after everything he did to Brady as he never thought Chloe could forgive him or consider a relationship with him again. Philip adds that Chloe admitted that her feelings for him came back when he returned to Salem.

Chloe questions Xander wanting to win custody of the baby. Xander knows it’s a longshot with his history but he’s her father and deserves to be his daughter’s life. Chloe asks if he’s hired an attorney. Xander says he’s had preliminary discussions and was advised not to leave town so he apologizes as he knows they planned to go to New York to get married. Xander tells Chloe that he still wants to marry her and he doesn’t want to be with Sarah, especially after what she did. Xander repeats that he loves Chloe and wants to be with her. Chloe responds that she’s sorry but she doesn’t think she feels the same way anymore and she doesn’t want to be with him.

Ava tells Harris that she needs to get Tripp. Harris assures that he won’t let Edmund hurt Tripp. Ava points out that Harris can’t break the chains. Susan offers to help by praying for strength and says prayer is always the answer. Susan stands with Ava and says they are going to pray to the lord. Harris says he’ll take all the help he can get and then he successfully breaks the chain. Ava is shocked while Susan thanks God.

Tripp tells Rafe to move as there’s no point in both of them getting shot. Edmund says he makes sense and adds that this isn’t Rafe’s fight. Edmund tells Tripp to save a place for Ava in Hell and assures he won’t have to wait long. Harris then bursts in and fights with Edmund over the gun.

Ava shouts for Harris and worries about what is going on or if Harris doesn’t make it in time. Susan encourages Ava to have faith, pointing out that the Lord helped break the chains so now they have to hope he will stop Edmund from pulling the trigger. They then hear the gunshot and Ava screams.

The gun fired in to the ground as Harris wrestles the gun away from Edmund. Harris assures that he’s okay as Edmund complains that this is not right. Harris orders Edmund to sit down and not move. Rafe asks for the gun which Harris hands over. Tripp asks where Ava is. Harris tells him that she’s fine and to follow him. Rafe stops Harris but Harris assures Rafe that he doesn’t have to worry as they are done running which Rafe accepts. Harris then takes Tripp to see Ava. Rafe then informs Edmund that he is under arrest as he makes a call.

Ava worries that she doesn’t hear anything after one gun shot. Harris then returns with Tripp. Tripp embraces Ava and is shocked to see Susan is alive, realizing Ava was right. Harris says he will get them unchained. Susan thanks Harris. Harris responds that if she wants to thank him, she can tell EJ to leave Ava alone. Susan agrees to do that and tells him not to worry because EJ will listen to his mom. Harris hopes she’s right about that.

EJ explains to Bronson that Rex Brady has been presenting himself as the father of Sarah Horton’s new child but it’s come to light that Xander Cook is the true father. Bronson notes that could cause bad blood and guesses EJ doesn’t like Rex either. EJ responds that he has no feelings about Rex but they need a fall guy, so Rex is going to have to be collateral damage.

Rex knows it hasn’t always been smooth sailing for Philip and Chloe, but he’s always believed they belong together. Philip responds that he won’t argue that, but he lost his way last time with her as his obsession took over and he did some terrible things. Philip admits he wasn’t well and he hurt a lot of people including Chloe, so he doesn’t want to be that guy again. Rex is happy to hear that and asks what this means for he and Chloe. Philip responds that he is sitting back and letting things happen the way they are supposed to. Philip states that Chloe knows how he feels so it’s up to her to decide who she wants to be with. Rex jokes that it’s crazy that the women they love can either choose to be with them or that thug Xander. Philip declares that he likes their chances.

Xander asks Chloe if she thought he was with Sarah when he didn’t come home last night or that he’d just give up on everything they have. Xander doesn’t blame her for having doubts. Chloe says that didn’t help but this isn’t just about he and Sarah. Chloe informs Xander that when he went to confront Sarah, Philip came over and said he still loves her and never stopped. Xander argues that’s Philip’s problem not Chloe’s. Chloe admits that she has unresolved feelings for Philip and guesses that she always has. Chloe thought Philip was dead so it didn’t matter but then when she saw him, all these feelings came rushing back. Xander asks if that means Chloe wants to be with Philip. Chloe says she doesn’t know since things ended really ugly for them and she’d never want that back but she guesses she needs some time to figure things out. Xander says he understands. Chloe tells Xander that she loves him and she has loved being with him, but thinks maybe somehow they ended up here because Sarah broke his heart and she never thought she’d see Philip again. Chloe admits that she’s not over Philip and she thinks Xander will realize he’s not over Sarah. Xander asks what now. Chloe guesses she will spend one last night here in her old room and then tomorrow, she will pack her things and go. Chloe kisses Xander goodbye and exits as Xander holds back tears.

Harris, Ava, and Tripp bring Susan out to Rafe, who is shocked to see that she really is alive. Susan can’t believe half of Salem came to rescue her. Rafe can’t believe that Edmund held her captive this whole time and asks how she even got here. Harris and Ava explain that Edmund said he got a phone call from someone who said they knew Susan survived the crash and then two men showed up with an injured Susan. Rafe asks Edmund who it was but Edmund reiterates that he has no idea who the man was. Rafe asks if Susan doesn’t remember. Susan confirms she’s coming up blank but says it really does scare her to think that whoever grabbed her is still out there…

The Next Day…

EJ puts a photo of Susan on the mantle at home and calls Bronson, who informs him that he’s about to text Rex and send him over to Xander’s apartment, where he will be waiting. EJ instructs Bronson to call him when everything is done and hangs up.

Rex sits with Kate at the Pub, complaining that she’s not hearing him. Kate assures that she is hearing that he is planning on remaining married to a woman who is using him and letting him raise another man’s child. Rex argues that Sarah is not using him and that they care about each other a lot. Rex adds that he already loves Sarah’s daughter like his own. Rex questions why Kate can’t be okay with this like Roman is. Kate argues that unlike them, she is thinking straight and she knows there is no way that Xander is going to back off and let Rex pretend to be the father. Rex responds that he’s not afraid of Xander while Kate warns that he should be. Rex then gets a text message from Bronson pretending to be Xander, saying he needs to see him at his apartment about the baby. Kate asks if Xander wants to squash him like a bug. Rex informs Kate that Xander wants to see him. Kate urges him not to go but Rex feels it’s the perfect opportunity to set things straight. Kate pleads with him but Rex exits the Pub.

Chloe packs her bags at the apartment. Xander guesses this is it. Chloe tells him that they’ll figure out another time for her to get the rest of her stuff. Xander tells her that she will always have a place there. Xander adds that he thought she should have their dart board. Chloe asks if he’s sure he doesn’t want to keep it. Xander jokes about who’s picture he would put on it between Rex, Sarah, and Philip but never Chloe’s. Xander hugs Chloe as she cries. Chloe kisses Xander goodbye and they tell each other to take care as Chloe then exits.

EJ pours a drink in the living room and tells the portrait of Stefano that it’s all in motion as justice will be served to Xander and then Ava is next. Ava then walks in to the room, shocking EJ.

Rafe and Tripp return to the police station in Salem. Tripp thanks Rafe for letting Ava do this her way. Rafe assures that he’s not doing it out of the goodness of his heart. Rafe adds that Ava and Harris should be in a jail cell or at least back in Bayview. Tripp points out that Rafe knows as well as he does that it was EJ who sent the woman to kill Ava. Rafe declares that is why he’s going to do everything in his power to nail his ass.

EJ asks Ava what the hell she is doing here as he thought she was on the run. Ava responds that she’s back now and she brought him a little surprise, not that he deserves it after trying to kill her. EJ claims to have no idea what she’s talking about. Ava tells him to spare her the phony denials as she knows he sent that woman to murder her at Bayview and that’s why she is here, to end this now. EJ asks how she plans to do that. Ava tells him to see for himself as Harris then brings in Susan, leaving EJ in disbelief.

Chloe meets Philip in the park. Chloe thanks him for coming as there was something she needed to tell him. Chloe then announces that she is leaving Salem.

Bronson shows up at Xander’s apartment and claims he’s from the gas company there to inspect a leak. Xander says it’s not a good time but Bronson warns that gas leaks can be deadly and promises it won’t take long. Bronson then enters the apartment. Rex then shows up at the door. Xander questions what he wants while Bronson loads his gun behind them.

Young & The Restless Transcript

Y&R logo

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Nick: Thank you.

Sharon: Thank you.

Nick: So, I heard you knocked it out of the park with the west coast kirsten divisions.

Sharon: Well, you were such a superstar with the east coast divisions, I could hardly let you show me up.

Nick: Well, what can I say? It’s probably just the dimples. Can I grab a muffin?

Sharon: Sure. So, you wanna tell me what’s going on?

Nick: Um, well, let’s see. Our attorneys have scheduled a conference call for next week.

Sharon: No, I mean, with you, nick. What’s going on with you?

Nick: It’s nothing. I’m good. All right, I’m not that good, but I will be. Don’t– don’t worry about it.

Sharon: See, when you tell me not to worry about something, that makes me worry even more and you know that. Especially when I can tell that you want to punch a hole through a wall right now. So, can you just maybe narrow down what it is I’m not supposed to worry about? And then I won’t start making things up.

Nick: Look, I came here so we could compare updates on our kirsten trips, okay? Let’s not get bogged down with any personal stuff. We are business partners.

Sharon: We were also married, nick, and we raised children. And we still managed to remain friends, good friends. And we’re going to remain friends for the rest of our lives, whether this business together works out in the end or not. So, that’s not an either or thing. Tell me what’s going on. What happened?

Adam: Sally. Sally! Will you please wait? I need to know what happened in the park.

Sally: I don’t care what you need and I don’t want to talk about it so just leave it alone.

Adam: Okay, I’m sorry, but I can’t do that.

Sally: Well, try.

Adam: My brother almost ripped my head off in the park. I would like to know what brought that on.

Sally: Isn’t that a normal state for the two of you?

Adam: Okay. This was different.

Sally: Okay, just give him some space, okay? Leave him alone. He’ll cool off.

Adam: Sally, cool off from what? Please, would you just tell me? It’s important for me to know where my brother and I stand, okay? Look, did you tell him that I kissed you? Is that what set him off?

Abby: Oh, look at you. Looking good. I love you in a suit. I mean, I like you better without the suit on, but you look good both ways.

Devon: Ooh, thank you.

Abby: Wait, you have a late meeting or something?

Devon: Uh, actually we have a late meeting, if you care to join me?

Abby: We do? What are we doing?

Devon: Uh, mamie invited us and the rest of the family to get drinks at the jazz lounge.

Abby: Okay. What’s the occasion?

Devon: Uh, hopefully, she’s gonna tell us she’s the mystery investor in chancellor-winters. Maybe explain why she’s kept it a secret this whole time.

Abby: Well, in that case, let me go change. Got the perfect outfit.

Devon: Yeah?

Abby: Mm-hmm.

Lily: Hi.

Daniel: Hi. I came as soon as I could. What’s up?

Lily: Well, I have a favor to ask you and I could have texted you, but I thought I could be more persuasive in person.

Daniel: You were right. What do you want?

Lily: Um, well, aunt mamie invited us to the club and I want you to be my date.

Daniel: Really?

Lily: Why are you saying it like it’s a bad idea?

Daniel: Well, I’m assuming that she’s gonna announce her new involvement in chancellor-winters, right?

Lily: Yeah, I would assume so.

Daniel: And you want me tagging along for that?

Lily: You’re not tagging along, you’re a part of chancellor-winters. You should be there. And besides, with the guest list, it’s kind of like a family thing and I want to show aunt mamie how happy you make me.

Daniel: Yeah. Yeah. I mean, as fun as that sounds, I’ve got that meeting with my creative team that I’ve already canceled three times.

Lily: Oh, yes. That’s right.

Daniel: Yeah.

Lily: Okay.

Daniel: No. Look, I’ll tell you what, you go tonight, without me. You have an amazing time. And sometime in the near future, let’s get together with your aunt and show her just how happy you really are.

Lily: Okay.

Daniel: Okay.

[ Knocking on door ]

Nate: All right. Pencil down. It’s quitting time.

Victoria: Says who?

Nate: Says me. You and I are off to the neil winter’s lounge for cocktails.

Victoria: We are?

Nate: Yes. Aunt mamie organized a family get together and I would love for you to accompany me.

Victoria: Oh, wait a minute. Did you say family get-together? Does that include devon and lily?

Nate: Apparently.

Victoria: Are you trying to go to war with them again?

Jack: Mamie, do you know how happy it makes me to see you like this?

Mamie: Like what? Energized? Strong? A woman on top of the world?

Jack: Yeah, that about covers it. You forgot to mention beautiful as ever.

Mamie: Oh, no, I didn’T. I just paused so you could say it.

[ Both laughing ]

Jack: I don’t suppose you’re gonna fill me in on what you’re up to this evening, are you?

Mamie: Jackie, I am the luckiest woman in the world. I have two families and one of them is the abbotts. And I will cherish that bond forever. And now, I have to work on building a relationship with nate and lily and devon. And that’s why I put together this special evening. And why I have to take certain steps to truly reconnect–

Jack: See, there you go again. Certain steps. You are gonna drive me crazy with this mystery, mamie. Come on. Hey… it’s me! Your dry skin!

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by… eggland’s best.

Victoria: Come on, nate. You can’t possibly think it’s a good idea for me to– to come with you to a family gathering.

Nate: I happen to think it’s an excellent idea.

Victoria: Well, your cousins are not exactly my biggest fans. I mean, devon and lily still blame me for what you tried to do to them at chancellor-winters. So, how’s it gonna look if you and I walk in together? Like we’re, I don’t know– like we’re trying to rub something in their faces.

Nate: Lily and devon have too much respect for aunt mamie to cause a scene.

Victoria: Well, then maybe they’ll just walk out. And then your poor aunt’s family gathering will be over before it’s started.

Nate: I promise you that is not going to happen. Everyone who’s invited will come and they will stay, which gives me another chance to try to mend the fences with my cousins.

Victoria: I know you want that. I want that for you too. I really do.

Nate: Okay, so come with me.

Victoria: Are you sure?

Nate: Victoria, you and I are in a relationship and I am not about to apologize to anyone for what you and I have. Besides, I’ve become pretty involved with your family.

Victoria: Well, you can certainly say that’s true.

Nate: Well, I think it’s high time you become part of mine.

Mamie: Okay. I’ll tell you, but only because I remember how you used to pout whenever you thought people were keeping secrets from you.

Jack: Wait. I didn’t pout.

Mamie: Yeah, you keep on telling yourself that. I bought out a private investor and I now have a major stake in chancellor-winters.

Jack: Mamie, that is giant news.

Mamie: It sure is. And if everything works out, this is just the beginning.

Jack: Wow. You have really made the most of your investments over the years, haven’t you?

Mamie: Well, being around john abbott for decades certainly didn’t hurt. No. Your father was a brilliant businessman.

Jack: Well, you’ll get no argument there. There’s a reason he’s a legend in the corporate world.

Mamie: You see, jackie, I always had a plan to take care of all of you until you could stand on your own two feet. And then…

Jack: And then you would start your new life as…

Both: An entrepreneur.

Mamie: That’s right.

Jack: And it’s all led you full circle back to genoa city.

Mamie: When the idea of being in business with my niece and nephew hit me, I was willing to move heaven and earth. Even victor newman, just to make it happen.

Jack: Wait, what does victor– he’s the private investor? Mamie, I am so happy for all of you. For, well, all of you except–

Mamie: I know exactly what you’re going to say, jack.

Jack: This is great news for you, for devon, for lily, for chancellor-winters. I just hope you’re prepared for the unavoidable roadblock that you’re about to run up against.

Mamie: Yeah, well. I know it’s not gonna be easy, but I will do whatever it takes to make this happen. Come on, let’s face it. Who can prepare for jill?

Nick: Okay, friend. If you must know, while I was out of town, adam and sally happened to run into each other at the athletic club and they decided to have dinner together.

Sharon: Dinner. Okay, well, that’s not that big of a deal, nick. The two of them went through a terrible loss together, so for them to be able to find some level of peace…

Nick: Oh, there’s more to it than that. After dinner, adam decided to walk sally to her room.

Sharon: Okay?

Nick: Then, he kissed her.

Sharon: Oh, adam.

Nick: I mean, it’s typical adam, you know? He refuses to accept that he’s lost anything, especially to me, and he wants to just get it back, no matter what it is, however he can, whether he deserves it or not and I’m sick of it.

Sharon: Well, I can’t say that I blame you. But what are you gonna do about it? And don’t tell me that you’re gonna confront adam.

Nick: No, not right now. ‘Cause I’m sure I’ll do something I’ll regret. Like rip off one of his arms. I’m sure if you do something like that though, you get some prison time. So– so I wanted to come here. Just focus on my work and not think about him or what he did because when I do, all I can think about is how bad I want that son of a bitch gone for good and out of everyone’s life.

Sally: What difference does it make if I told nick about the kiss? You said that you were sorry, end of story. That’s the truth, right? I mean, unless you want to stir up some more trouble. Is chaos the only thing that makes your life worth living?

Adam: No, sally. That is not what I want.

Sally: Okay, then stop asking questions and just leave it alone.

Adam: Okay. I– I would love to do that, but if you told him, I need to know, not to cause more chaos. I have to know where nick and I stand because I’m trying to rectify my relationship with him and the rest of my family.

Sally: Okay, come on, adam. You and I both know that is a complete lie. I have moderate to severe crohn’s disease.

Adam: What do you mean that it’s a lie?

Sally: Because you’re you, adam. In spite of everything that you have said, everything that you’ve done over the last several months proves that you can never change. You can’t let me go. You can’t let go of newman media. You can’t let go of the anger at your father and the rest of your family for not treating you like you deserve the world. You say that you want to fix things, but they’re just words that you repeat, over and over again. Your actions are what matters and you refuse to stop blowing things up.

Sharon: Well, obviously you did the right thing by coming here instead of confronting adam, especially when you’re this angry and I’m not condoning what he did. We’ve all had to learn the hard way that love is love and we can’t just turn it off, no matter how much we would like to sometimes.

Nick: Adam does not love sally, all right? She’s just a trophy to him. Same as everything else in his life. He doesn’t love. He covets. His entire life is– is based on greed and jealousy and self-pity.

Sharon: There is nothing healthy about adam’s behavior. I agree with that. But when you say that he can’t love, I don’t know. I mean, he’s taken this long struggling to get over sally. Look, the only way that that kiss matters is if it somehow emotionally affected her. Did it?

Jack: How does anyone prepare for jill? That’s a good question. She doesn’t like to be tricked and god knows the animosity between the two of you goes back decades.

Mamie: Just wait until she finds out just how successful I’ve been since she paid me off to leave genoa city. Oh, this is gonna take her over the top.

Jack: Oh, not half as much as finding out you are the new mystery investor.

Mamie: But all I’m doing is replacing an investor. Jill shouldn’t be upset about any of that. I mean, money is green, honey. My money’s as good as victor newman’S.

Jack: That’s all perfectly logical. Logic doesn’t always apply with jill. Go ahead and give it a try. Listen, when you said you invested in chancellor-winters, it was only the beginning. Any chance you’d tell me what else you got up your sleeve? Come on, it’s me. It’s jackie. You can tell me.

Mamie: Oh, look, my guests are arriving. Sorry, jackie.

[ Jack sighing ] Having triplets is…

Lily: Well, it was good to see you, jack.

Jack: Good to see you. I have to be heading home. I’m sorry to do that.

Mamie: No, we’ll miss you.

Jack: Well, I will miss you too. All of you, but, uh, diane and I have to finish planning our wedding celebration tomorrow.

Mamie: Oh, jackie. I’m just so glad to see that you finally found real love and happiness. Although I have to admit, I was a bit worried when I discovered that diane was back and living in your house no less. But I have to admit, she– she really has turned her life around.

Jack: She has done that and so much more, mamie, I promise.

Mamie: I believe you. And I’m looking at that twinkle of joy in your eye. I’m really looking forward to celebrating it.

Jack: Have fun tonight, mamie. Lots of fun. Good evening.

Victoria: Jack.

Nate: Aunt mamie.

Mamie: Hello, victoria. Wow, you’re as lovely as I thought you might be when I was watching you grow up.

Victoria: Oh, thank you. That’s very sweet of you to say that.

Mamie: Oh, you know what? You have to come and see this snapshot of nate that I found when he was a baby. Come on over.

Nate: Oh, no.

Victoria: Oh, I would love to see that.

Mamie: I’ve got it on my phone.

Victoria: Oh my goodness. He’s so chubby.

Lily: Honestly, I’m surprised that you’re even enamored with victoria. Or is it just that she’s useful to you?

Nate: You’re never gonna give me a chance, are you?

Lily: Honestly, nate, this is me trying.

Nate: Then, let’s clear the air once and for all. My feelings for victoria are very real. You don’t have to like her, but you do have to respect my decision. Otherwise, there’s no point in us talking about being a family.

Lily: How do you not realize that you dating victoria throws everything that you two did to devon and me in our faces? Do you really think that we’re just gonna forget that?

Nate: Lily, did you forget that devon tried to take you to court? Or did you forget that devon and abby cheated on amanda and chance? Got caught red-handed, humiliated them, but they’re treated like the happy new couple in town. Everyone’s moved on. I am just as happy with victoria, but all you and everyone else can see is the past. I admitted I crossed a line. And I am sorry I hurt elena, but the truth is I’ve never been more comfortable in my own skin than I am now. With victoria.

Lily: Yeah, nate, that’s what’s scary. It’s terrifying because elena was your conscience and victoria can’t give you that. I mean, she’s pushing you to be bigger and better and collateral damage be damned.

Nate: For the record, I made the effort tonight.

Lily: Yeah, okay.

Nate: But this is over. Enjoy the wine.

Sharon: You’ve gone quiet.

Nick: Yeah. I hate to admit it, but I think the kiss affected sally more than she’s willing to admit. Even more than she’s aware of.

Sharon: And what makes you suspect that?

Nick: I don’t know, but I don’t want to talk about it. I came here to cool down and get some work done.

Sharon: Okay. How do you think we’re doing with that?

Nick: Not great. I’m pretty useless right now. But you did help.

Sharon: I did? How?

Nick: By being the rational person in the room, talking me down. Thank you. I appreciate it.

Sharon: I’m always happy to help a friend keep from dismembering his brother.

Nick: It’s one of the qualities that first attracted me to you.

Adam: I know what nick thinks of me, but I thought you and I, we were in a better place.

Sally: Better than what? Yeah, my heart was broken when we lost our little girl and I was filled with grief and rage, directed at you and the universe. We are in a better place from that, yeah. As friends. As two people working through a shared trauma, but then you had to go and ruin it by kissing me.

Adam: And I apologized for that. I told you that it was a mistake.

Sally: Yeah. But you also said that it was a mistake that you didn’t regret.

Adam: And you know what? I still don’T. Okay? It was a moment. It was an impulsive moment just between us.

Sally: No, it was a lot more than that, adam. Look, I’m just getting my whole life, my whole world balanced and back in order and now thanks to you and this impulsive moment, it’s all teetering again.

Adam: I mean, you’re– you’re not even talking about nick’s reaction to that kiss, are you? You’re– you’re talking about yours. When it comes to your hair, ingredients matter. at humana, we believe your healthcare should evolve with you, and part of that evolution means choosing the right medicare plan for you. Humana can help. Hi, my name is sam davis and I’m going to tell you about medicare advantage prescription drug plans that can provide more coverage than original medicare, including prescription drug coverage, all wrapped up into one convenient plan. With original medicare you’re covered for hospital stays and doctor office visits, but you have to meet a deductible for each. And then you’re still responsible for 20% of the cost. Next, let’s look at medicare supplement plans. If a service is covered under original medicare, then a medicare supplement plan pays for some or all of your medicare deductibles and the 20% coinsurance. But they may have higher monthly premiums and no prescription drug coverage. Humana medicare advantage prescription drug plans include medical coverage, plus prescription drug coverage. As well as dental coverage that includes two free cleanings a year, plus a yearly exam. Vision coverage includes vision exams and a yearly allowance toward eyewear such as lenses or contacts. And hearing benefits include routine hearing exams and coverage toward hearing aids. You’re covered for preventive services like annual mammograms and prostate exams. There’s a zero-dollar copay for routine vaccines and telehealth visits. And you get worldwide coverage for emergencies when you travel. You get all of this in one convenient plan. Plus, there’s a cap on your out-of-pocket costs! So, call or go online today to see if there’s a humana plan in your area, to find out if your doctor is in one of our networks, and to get our free decision guide. There’s no obligation, just good information. Humana – a more human way to healthcare.

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue.

Sally: You say that you want to rebuild relationships, but you don’T. You just want to make them what you want. And if the truth doesn’t work for you, then you rearrange it. You twist it into knots and you will only ever think what you want, but listen to me, there is no us, okay? And– and– and just let me give you a serious piece of advice. Stay away from nick for the time being. And me, okay? Because yes, I did tell nick about the kiss and yes, it upset him.

Adam: Okay. That’s all I needed to know. But take my word for it, um, I know my brother very well and I promise you, me kissing you did not upset him. It’s more than that.

Sally: Okay. Why does it have to be more than that? You crossed a line with your brother and your so-called friend.

Adam: Sally, he would only be that upset if that kiss triggered some emotional response in you.

Sally: Oh, my god enough. Please don’t you dare try and make this into more than it is, okay? Just stay out of my way and out of my life. And for the love of god, stay out of my head.

Mamie: Well, thank you all so much for coming tonight. Wow, I feel as if I’m in a dream. Standing here in genoa city, my home for so many years. In the neil winters jazz lounge, my brilliant nephew-in-law. Surrounded by my beautiful– my beautiful family. Sorry, I’ve missed you all so much. It won’t surprise any of you who know me that I have not stopped keeping tabs on you from the sidelines. And so, I’m aware of many of the ups and downs that you’ve all been through. I also know about some of the anger and animosity that’s been happening between you as well. I don’t mind telling you how much it breaks my heart and know that it breaks olivia’s heart too. And don’t think for one minute that neil and drucilla are not looking down and they’re having their hearts broken too. Which is exactly why I have asked you to be here tonight. To let you know that it is my intention to return to genoa city to whip you all in shape and to make this family the strong powerhouse that it was before and that it shall be again. (Vo) when it comes to nature valley, which camp are you in?

[ Sally sighing ]

Nick: Adam has a hold on you. Maybe he always will.

Sally: Look, nick, please. Okay? We are in such a good place and I really love what we have together. I don’t want to feel this way, okay? I– I– I don’t want to feel confused and– and mixed up. If– if I could straighten out my jumbled-up emotions right now, I would. But you asked me and this is where I’m at. But it doesn’t mean that I care about you any less. Just please tell me I haven’t screwed this up.

[ Sally sighing ]

[ Phone ringing ]

Nick: Yeah, I like that one too. It’s sally.

Sharon: Oh, okay. You should take that.

Nick: Hey.

Sally: Hey, how are you?

Nick: Just, uh, here with sharon, working?

[ Sally sighing ]

Sally: You are not okay. I can hear it in your voice. Neither am I.

Nick: Has adam bothered you again?

Sally: Look, can we please talk this out?

Nick: Sally, I told you I’m–

Sally: Working. Yes, I– I know. I’m amazed that you can actually concentrate right now.

Nick: Well, sharon’s pretty good at grounding me when I need it.

Sally: Remind me to thank her. Nick, please. I– I completely steered things in the wrong direction this afternoon.

Nick: Yeah, they did go south pretty quickly.

Sally: Yeah, I know. I’m sorry.

Nick: Then adam showing up didn’t help. You know what? You’re right. We need to talk. I’m on my way.

[ Sally sighing ]

[ Sally exhaling ]

Mamie: Now, just to be clear, I have no illusions about being able to unify this family from a distance, which is why I intend to do this work from the inside. I have purchased a substantial investment in chancellor-winters from a very influential, very cooperative, secret investor.

Devon: Well, I don’t think it’s a secret because we know that the investor is victor newman.

Mamie: So, now you know. And I hope that you’re as excited as I am to know that I’m gonna be strongly connected to the future that lily and devon are building. In memory of two of our most extraordinary family members, kathleen chancellor and neil winters.

Devon: Yes.

All: Hear, hear. Cheers.

Mamie: And now, nate, as for you. And we all know that you’re in knee-deep over at newman enterprises. And good for you. Good for you. But I just want you to know upfront, it will give me great pleasure to lure you away to rejoin us at chancellor-winters.

Lily: Uh, sorry, did you just say rejoin us?

Sally: Nick, don’t make too much out of this, okay? It didn’t mean anything to me–

Nick: But it meant everything to him.

Sally: Okay. He kissed me. I didn’t–

Nick: How did you feel afterward? Sally, there’s no judgment here, okay? I’m not mad at you, I promise, but I need to know everything. No matter what, just be honest. I need to know how you felt because it’s obvious adam’s never gonna let this go, no matter what he says.

Sally: I had a mixed reaction, I guess. I– I don’t know how I felt. No question, the kiss was out of line. And– and I really do feel like he was sincere when he said he was sorry and…

Nick: And what?

Sally: I don’t know. It’s hard to just see how much pain he’s in, still being in love with me and knowing that I’m with you.

Nick: So, there is a part of you that is still in love with him?

Nick: Adam.

Adam: Nick. Look, um, I was gonna call you later, okay? I have something that I wanna say to you and–

Nick: I’ll go first. You need to stop this. You need to leave her alone. For sally’s benefit, mine, and definitely yours. You know me, my patience has a limit.

Adam: You– you’re absolutely right, okay? I’m sorry, I crossed the line. What I did was wrong on every level and I want to apologize sincerely to you and to sally. Holy cannoli.

[ Nick sighing ]

Nick: I just saw adam downstairs.

Sally: Oh, no, please tell me you didn’T.

Nick: I didn’t lay a hand on him. I didn’t even raise my voice.

Sally: What did you do?

Nick: I warned him that he is gonna leave you alone because I’ve run out of patience.

Sally: I’m sure he didn’t take that well.

Nick: Actually, he did. He says he knows he screwed up. That he was wrong and that he apologized to both of us.

Sally: Well, that’s a relief, right?

Nick: If it were coming from anyone other than my brother, yeah. It’s just another adam newman mind game, but I’m at my breaking point with him.

Sally: Well, I mean, do you really think that’s what he’s up to?

Nick: There is no way in hell I believe he’s gonna leave you alone, sally. He’s just trying to get me to let my guard down.

Sally: Okay. Well, you know what? I– at the end of the day, it– it doesn’t really matter. Adam’s gonna do whatever adam is gonna do and we can deal with it if and when it comes to it. But honestly, frankly, it is the last thing on my mind right now ’cause the one thing that I care about, the only thing that I care about is the reason that I wanted to see you.

Nick: And what’s that?

Sally: I just really want to know if we’re okay.

Nick: I don’t know. I don’t know. That depends on you and what’s in your heart. I want to know the truth. No more deflecting. No more denial. I want the truth. No matter what it is.

Sally: The truth is that I’m falling in love with you too. I am.

Adam: Sharon.

Sharon: Oh, we’re closed, adam.

Adam: Yeah. I– I– I know you are. But the, uh, the lights were still on and your car was still in the parking lot, so I thought I would stop in and say hi. Is– is there anything that I can help you with?

Sharon: Um, as a matter of fact, there is. Could you tell me why you feel that you have to mess things up for everyone who you believe has harmed you?

Adam: Oh, I take it you spoke to nick.

Sharon: I have.

Adam: Oh, I can only imagine how he spun things. But then again, I guess he didn’t need to because, um, I’m guilty as charged. I crossed the line, okay? So, nick has every reason to be upset with me.

Sharon: Well, I agree with that. I feel badly for him.

Adam: Yeah. Yeah, so do I.

Sharon: I doubt that.

Adam: No, no, I– I really, I mean it, I do. Because what nick doesn’t see and what became clear as a bell to me today is that he is fooling himself.

Sharon: Meaning?

Adam: Sharon, sally’s not in love with nick. Sally’s still in love with me.

Mamie: You heard me perfectly, lily. I know that nate left chancellor-winters under less-than-ideal circumstances, but I’m hoping that we can take all of that anger and that sense of betrayal and leave it in the past where it belongs. And that we can invite nate back to rejoin us in our family’s company.

Lily: Yeah. I don’t know if that’s possible, but it’s the word “us” that’s confusing me because you bought an interest in the company from victor, but yet you’re making it sound like you’re gonna be an integral part of it. So, I mean, what exactly are your intentions at chancellor-winters?

Jill: Yeah. Actually, I’m pretty curious about that myself.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

What a relief they found my dad’s will, huh? So Maggie can move back in, kick Vivian to the curb. Better be careful if she hears you say that. She’s gonna remind you once again that she carried you in her womb. As if that means a damn thing. All it does is embarrass me, actually. Since she’s obviously a very bad person, and we are very lucky to be rid of.

Oh God, I wish I could say the same about the very bad person that continues to darken my doorstep. And especially Sarah’s. Xander? Yeah. He’s made it very clear that he has no intention whatsoever of staying away from Sarah. Or the baby.

What’s new with me, Mom? You mean besides everything? No, I haven’t had a chance to talk to Xander about any of it, cause… I, I haven’t even seen him. He didn’t come home last night. Wait, Mom, I gotta go, okay? Are, are you okay? Where were you? I’m so sorry. I, I didn’t mean to worry you. I slept the night in my office.

Yesterday was just such a crazy day, obviously. I, I needed time to process it. But I should have, I should have called you. It, I understand. I just, I didn’t know what to say. No, it’s fine. When you were gone, I did some thinking too. About what? About me moving out. I’m

surprised you took me out for detail. Yes, well, I appreciate you keeping an eye on the patient Ava Vitale shot, but I can take it from here. She’s my client now. Oh, I, I thought you were her client. Yes, well, certain circumstances dictated that the roles be reversed. I’m now representing her, and have advised her to exercise her right to remain silent.

Well, I’m sure she’s going to take your advice, Mr. DiMera. You mentioned there was another job you needed me for? I do. I was hoping that you could succeed where the aforementioned patient failed. I want you to find and to

get us out of here, Susan. Me? Yes, you. You’re the one who lured me and Harris to the big smoke with one of your, your little mental telegrams, right? So, so why don’t you try sending one of those psychic signals to somebody who can get us out? Yeah, can you, can you do that, Susan? I don’t know. Okay, well, you know, you need to figure that out real soon.

Because if you don’t, I’m pretty sure your ex husband, the crazy one, Edmund, he’s gonna end up shooting someone today.

Actually, the people that we’re looking for are under the impression that Susan Banks is still alive. But that’s impossible. I was told she was blown to bits in a car crash. Yeah, well, be that as it may, uh, we understand that they came here. What, to London? No, here to your apartment. I certainly haven’t seen them.

Well, they looked up your address just before they went missing. Well, that’s odd, isn’t it? Well, um, I will let you know if they show up. Alright, uh, do you mind if I have a look around? Well, actually, I do.

Edmund. What’s going on? What’s the problem here? The problem is, if I allow you to look around my flat, then you most certainly will find my guests. And I just can’t have that.

Like sand through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.

Is Ineva Vitale missing? She is. After shooting my client in cold blood, she and another patient escaped bathing into parts unknown. Hm. See? Not that you asked my opinion, but… I mean… Commissioner Hernandez, he’s headed out for years for you to get locked up. Why give him an excuse now to turn up the heat?

Oh, I’m not worried about Hernandez. And I’ve waited far too long to get vengeance from my mother, whom Ava Vitale has had people try and convince me is still alive. What? How could that be? It couldn’t be. So either Ava’s delusional, she’s trying her best to trick me into backing off. Either way… I want her dead.

You know,

I am afraid that my gifts do not work like that, Missy Moo. You know what? You want me to just broadcast the signal out into the neighborhood? You’ll never know until you try. There’s gotta be somebody you can reach. Okay, fine. Alright. Fine, fine, fine. So who do you want me to call? I don’t know. Scott Lanyard.

007 Paddington Bear. Oh, I do love that little bear with his little yellow hat and his blue coat. Okay, Susan, Susan, focus! Okay, just please reach out to somebody who can come here and save us. Okey dokey, Schmokey. But you know what helps? When you’re not yelling at me! Fine. I will be quiet. Oh, you know what?

And I’d also appreciate it if you don’t give me those dirty looks. And that goes for you too, Mr. Handsome Hair Shortcut. Okay. Ready or not, here I go.

You don’t think this is gonna work.

Did you see something? Susan. Susan, answer me. I, I, I, I, I, I, I didn’t, I didn’t get to see the message, I just, I saw this, this image, it hit me. What? An image? An image of what? It wasn’t, it wasn’t a what, it was a phone. It was um, oh boy, I saw Edmund, I saw him, it was vivid, vivid as days long. And, uh, he was, um, he was pointing a gun.

He was pointing a gun at your, your baby boy.

And who are these guests of yours? Well, quite coincidentally, they’re the two people that you came looking for. My mom is here. What did you do with her? Your mother? You’re Ava Vitale’s son? Yeah, I am. Then I’m sure you’re aware of what your mother did to my Susan. Kidnapped her and drove her off the side of a cliff.

Yeah. Yeah, I know what happened. Ava did her best to put out Susan’s light. And it’s a beautiful life that this world so desperately needs. It shattered my heart. Well, I’m sorry to hear that, Mr. Crumb. Well, I hope you don’t take this personally. But your mother hurt me deeply. And now, I’m gonna hurt her deeply by killing her son.

Well, hang on, Mr. Crumb. Okay? No one needs to get hurt here. Oh, I beg to differ. We can all see that you’re suffering. Oh, you can, can you? You have no idea what suffering is. Susan was my one true love. From the moment I first saw her, I knew I was gonna spend my life protecting her. Keeping her safe from this cruel world.

Yeah. Her loss was a terrible tragedy. Her death haunted me. Cast a pall over my every waking moment. Whenever I closed my eyes, all I could see was her face and her hair and that… perfect smile. The smile? Yeah, that’s what I love most about her. I mean, we were apart for years, but I always held up hope that we’d be reunited.

That despite our miscommunications…

It should take me back. I can’t imagine why she would have left you. Although she, this took my deep love and devotion for obsession. Because I said I’d do anything to take care of her. Even kill. I see. Oh. But she’s gone now. See, you don’t have to do that, Edmund. Okay, you don’t. Your life has value. It does, O’Shea.

Please, please just give me the gun, Edmund. Commissioned. I assure you, I have more than one bullet in this gun, and if you do not stand aside, sir, I have no issue shooting you first. And Ava Vitale’s impertinent son second.

My baby boy, Tripp. Is Tripp here? What? Um, it seems like, like he’s right out there in the living room. Oh dear God. And Krum hasn’t gone out? But yeah, old Krum is now and he’s not one to roll up the red carpet for uninvited guests. No. No. Tripp! Tripp! We’re back here! Tripp! Not gonna work, he can’t here you.

No, no no no. See, Edmund, he sound proofed this whole place before, uh, he locked me up in here. Yeah, of course he did. Yeah, and I just wish he me that because I screamed just like you, I screamed with myself, my, my voice got really hoarse, hoarse, hoarse, hoarse, hoarse, hoarse you know, and it, I sounded like I was, I was uh, Elvis on his 3rd encore on the, you know, Aloha from Hawaii via satellite.

Just stop! Stop talking!

Harris, we have to get Tripp. Please. Please, we have to get out there. We have to save him.

Well, Bronson, do you want the assignment or not? Look, you want the Vitali woman dead, I’ll make her dead. I just need to know where she is. She was a sitting duck in Bayview. Now, I don’t know where she could be. I’m working on locating her. But until that happens, there is another sitting duck waiting for you.

Right here in Salem, in fact. Another tiger? Who? Ava’s accomplice. Xander Cook.

Believe me, I totally get why Sarah’s doing this. I mean, anything to keep Xander away from her innocent child. I just, I can’t believe after what Xander did to E. J. DiMera’s mother. I mean, why is he not in prison? Or dead? Sarah doesn’t still have feelings for him, does she? You mean besides disgust? I’m just asking No, no, Phillip.

He lied to her over and over again. Even used her as cover while he kidnapped and terrorized Susan. I know all that. I also know you and Sarah have had your issues. Yeah, I still have a lot of work to do to regain Sarah’s trust. But Xander, unless he’s found out a way to resurrect Susan Banks from the dead, there’s no way in hell that Sarah’s gonna let him back into her life.

Or her daughter’s.

Hey, I, I know a lot has changed. I mean, I just found out that I’m her father to that little girl, but… Which makes me assume that… You want to try to work things out with her mother? I know that you loved Sarah for a long time and maybe you never stopped. I don’t love her anymore. She, she tried to keep me from my own child.

She put another man’s name on my daughter’s birth certificate. And I’m not saying that any of that is okay and you have every right to feel hurt and betrayed. That’s how I knew I had to tell you the truth about what I overheard. From Max and Phillip. Right. And in that moment, you proved that I can trust you, Chloe.

I know that our relationship is strong and

honest. I’m gonna fight, Sarah, for this baby. And, darlin I need you by my side when I do that.

Xander Cook kidnapped and terrorized my mother. Here’s the reason why she ended up in that car with Eva Vitale. Well, that sounds like he deserves what’s coming to him. But I gotta ask, is it safe? I mean, like, like I said before, you’re already under suspicion for what happened over at Bayview. This guy, Cook, takes a bullet.

It means there’s gonna be a lot of blowback coming your way. I’m prepared for it. That’s why you’re going to frame someone else. That makes sense. So who’s our fall guy? Someone who hates Xander Cook just as much as I do. Rex Brady.

You know, I have to admit, Chloe overhearing us talking about Sarah and… It’s really complicated things. I hope you don’t blame her for telling Xander what she heard. No, no, no, no. She just did what she thought was right. And, look, we both know secrets like that that have a way of coming out. So maybe it’s better we deal with it.

I hope so. Doesn’t make it any easier. No. Hey, Chloe didn’t just overhear us talking about Xander being Victoria’s father. Chloe also heard you say that you’re still in love with her. She did it. And how’d she take that? Better than I could have imagined. Really?

After everything I did to Brady, I never thought she could forgive me. Let alone consider being in a relationship with me again. But? But, Chloe admitted, when I came back to Salem, Her feelings for me came back too.

Uh, you want to win custody of the baby? Oh, no, no, it’s a long shot. I have a spotted history to say the least, but I’m a father, Chloe. I deserve to be a part of her life. So you hired an attorney? I had a preliminary discussion with the custody lawyer. She She said it’s probably a bad idea if I leave Salem right now.

I’m sorry, I know we are gonna go to New York and, and get married.

I do still want to marry you, Chloe. I don’t want to be with Sarah. Especially after what she did. I love you. I want to be with you.

I’m sorry, Xander. I don’t think I feel the same way anymore.

I don’t want to be with you.

I need to get to church. I’m not going to let that guy hurt your son. You’re going to be able to break that chain. Uh, maybe I can help? If Harris can’t do it, how are you going to help? Well, I’m just going to pray to God for strength. Prayer. Praying, praying, praying. That is your answer. Prayer is always answered.

So come, and we are going to pray to the Lord to loosen the weakest link. I’ll take all the help I can get. Alright, well you just work your end of it, Mr. Harrison. I’ll work mine. Okay.

Self destruct! Move,

Rafe. No! Touchdown! Both of us are being shot! Boy, it makes sense, Commissioner. Besides, this isn’t your fight. But you, Tripp. Is it? I’ll ask you to save a place for your mother in hell. And I give you my assurance, you won’t have to wait long.

Paris! Oh my god. What is going on up there? What if he doesn’t make it to him in time? Okay, hold on, hold on, Honey,

I mean, look the good Lord, he helped break the chains! Didn’t he? And, and now we have to pray that he’s gonna help Mr. Harris stop, Edmond, from pulling that.

You all right? Yeah. Gun was pointed at the ground when he pulled the trigger. Thank God. No, this is not right. Do yourself a favor. Sit there and don’t move. Mind if I hold the gun? Yeah. Where’s my mom? She’s fine. Follow me. Paris? Rafe. You don’t have to worry. We’re done running. Alright. Scotland Yard

will be joining us. In the meantime, consider yourself under arrest. I

don’t hear him anything. There was only one gunshot, and then… Harris, what happened? What was the worst trip? Oh my god. Oh my god, thank god.

Susan, you’re, you’re alive! Oh my goodness, it’s so good to see you, Dr. Joe Johnson! I guess you were right, huh? Yeah, I guess so. Why don’t I get you two unchained? Oh, yes, I’d like that very, very much, Mr. Michaels. Thank you. Um, you want to thank me, you can tell your son EJ to leave Ava alone. Okay. Um, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, I can, I can do that.

Don’t you worry about Mr. Michaels. My Elvis, he’s such a good boy, and he’s gonna listen to his mama. Yeah, I hope you’re right about

that. Rex Brady has been presenting himself as the father of Sarah Horton’s newborn child. But it’s come to light that Xander Cook is her true baby daddy. Sounds like that could cause some serious bad blood between the two men. I’m assuming you don’t like this Rex guy either. I have no feelings about him at all.

But like you said, we need a fall guy. So Dr. Rex is going to have to be… collateral damage.

You and Chloe. I know it hasn’t always been smooth sailing for you two. To put it mildly. But… I have always believed that you two belong together. I won’t argue with you about that. But, I lost my way last time around with her. Obviously. My obsession took over and I did some terrible things. I wasn’t well and I hurt a lot of people.

Chloe included. I never want to be that guy again. Happy to hear that. Really? So what does this mean for you and Chloe? It means I’m sitting back and letting things happen the way they’re supposed to. Chloe knows how I feel. Now it’s up to her to decide who she wants to be with. Sounds like a good plan.

Because, you know, it’s crazy. Which part? That the women we love… can either choose to be with us, or that thug Xander. I have to say, I like our chances.

When I, when I didn’t come home last night, did you think I was, did you think I was with Sarah? Or that I’d just give up on everything that you and I have? I don’t blame you if you had doubts, Chloe. Well that, that certainly didn’t help, but this is not just about me. It’s you and Sarah. What’s it about, then?

Well, when you went to confront her, Philip came over.

And? And he, he said that he still loves me and that he never stopped. Well, that sounds like his problem, not yours. That’s true, but… Honestly, I have unresolved feelings for him. Since when? Since… always, I guess. You know, I thought he was dead, and it, it didn’t matter, and then, when I saw him, I had all these feelings come rushing back.

So, um, does that mean that you want to be with him? No. I, I don’t know. The way things ended with us was really ugly, and I would never want that back, but I Guess what I’m trying to say is that I need some time to figure things out, okay?

I, uh, I understand.

I love you, and I have loved being with you, Xander. Don’t you think that maybe we somehow ended up here because Sarah broke your heart, and I thought I’d never see Philip again, and if I’m, if I’m being honest, I’m not over him. And I think once you stop being so angry, you’ll realize that you’re not over Sarah.

So, what now? I guess spent one last night here, and… My old room. Tomorrow I will pack my things and I’ll go.

My God, it’s you. You really are alive. Yes, praise the Lord! Well, it’s you too, Commissioner. Well, I just can’t believe half the Salem came Ol Mike. Yeah, I just… I can’t believe that he held you captive this whole time. How did you even get here? Crumb said he got a phone call from someone who knew Susan survived the crash.

Yeah, and he said that next thing he knew, some guy showed up with an injured Susan. Who was it, Crumb? I already told them. I have no idea who the man was. Susan, you don’t remember? No, I’m coming to Blake. Blake, yep. Oh, yeah, but you know what? It really does scare the bejesus out of me to think that whoever grabbed me,

is still out there. Hey, boss. Everything set for today? Yeah. Yeah. But the techs are expiring now. Send him over to Cook’s apartment. Where you’ll be waiting? Where I’ll be waiting. Call me when everything’s done.

Mom, you’re not hearing me. I am hearing you. I am hearing you loud and clear. You’re planning on remaining married to a woman who is using you and letting you raise another man’s child. Sarah is not using me. We care about each other. A lot. And I already love her daughter as if she was my own. You know what?

Legally, she is. So my god, if dad can be okay with this, why can’t you? Because unlike you and your father, I am thinking straight. Okay? That little girl was sired by Xander Cook, and there is no way in hell he’s just gonna back off and let you pretend to be the father. I’m not afraid of Xander. Well, you damn well should be.

Hold on.

Speak of the devil. Oh, God. So what does he want to do? Squash you like a bug? He wants to see me. Right now. No. Rex, please don’t do that. Oh, no. I’m going. This is going to be the perfect opportunity to set that bastard straight. Rex, please! Later, Bob! Rex.

Well, I guess this is it. Yeah, um, we’ll figure out another time for me to come get the rest of my stuff. Anytime. You always have a place here.

I, um… I thought that you should have this. What is it? It’s the dartboard. You sure you don’t want to keep it? You went to such trouble hanging that thing up. Yeah, I remember. But if I keep it, you know, whose picture am I going to put on it? There’s so many choices. Sarah, Rex, Philip, mine.

Never give up, Star.

Take care, Xander.

You

too,

Chloe. All is in motion, father. Justice will be meted out to Xander Cook. And as soon as Ava Vital crawls out from whatever rock she’s under, she’s next.

Thank you, Ray, for letting my mom do this her way. Oh, I’m not doing it out of the goodness of my heart. And by all rights, Ava and Michael should be in a jail cell right now, or at least back at Bayview. Yeah. But you know as well as I do that, it was EJ who sent the woman to kill it. Yeah. Which is why I’m gonna do everything in my power to nail his ass.

Hello, Lee Chang. Ava, what the hell are you doing here? I thought you were… on the run. Well, I’m back now. And I brought you a little surprise. Not that you deserve it after trying to kill me. I have no idea who you’re talking about. Oh, EJ, spare me the phony denials. I know you sent that woman to murder me over at Bayview.

That’s why I’m here. I’m gonna end this. Now. End it how? See for yourself.

Hey, I got your text. Uh, yeah, thanks for meeting me. Um, there was something I needed to tell you. What is it? I’m, I’m leaving Salem.

Yes? Hey, sorry to bother you, uh, from the gas company. We got a word that there’s a leak in the building. Might I come in and take a look? Not really a great time, to be honest, mate. It’s a gas leak, sir. These things could be deadly if we don’t address them. How long will it take? Not long, I promise. Thanks.

How much do you want?

Eric: Have a seat, Dr. Colby, please. I appreciate very much your discretion, meeting us here at the house. Thank you.

Colby: Of course.

Donna: We really wanna make sure that nobody else finds out about this.

Eric: I wanna know what’s going on. What’s happening with me? What’s wrong with me, Doctor?

[ Brooke chuckling ]

Brooke: Wow.

Ridge: Come on. What do you think?

Brooke: I see you’re going with the jewel tones.

Ridge: Yes, and to me, this is the shape of water. The body brings out the shape of the dress and the dress brings out the shape of the body, yes?

Brooke: It’s so sensual.

Ridge: Mm. It’s what dreams are made of.

Kenzie: We’ve all noticed you’re more inspired than ever, ever since you two reunited.

Ridge: Well, I’ve always been inspired by this little nugget. As long as I can remember. I love you.

Brooke: I love you.

RJ: Where is– I just had it. Where’s the burgundy? I can’t find it. Hey, have you– have you seen the burgundy? Thank you. Sorry, Granddad really wants to see this.

Luna: You really care about him.

RJ: Yeah, I do. Especially after what I told you.

Luna: Yeah, I’m serious. I promise, I won’t tell anyone about the tremors.

RJ: I trust you.

Luna: Look, I know a thing or two about family dynamics and I’m not gonna sit here and pretend like I know all of yours, but do you really want to keep this secret about your grandfather from your dad?

RJ: No. Of course, I don’t, but I made a promise to my granddad. If this were up to me, I’d just tell my dad.

Ridge: See, I like the transition in here. Does it flow okay?

Kenzie: Not too snug.

Ridge: Okay, good! I think that’s all we need for today. Thank you so much. Bye.

Kenzie: Carter.

Carter: Kenzie. Wow, man. Very nice.

Ridge: Thank you.

Carter: Yeah. Your dad’s gonna have to bring his A game if he wants to compete with you.

Donna: Well, um, prior visits, you mentioned essential tremors?

Colby: Yes, that was a possible initial diagnosis. After some further testing, we were able to rule out some other theories too. Well, you know our concerns, Eric.

Eric: Yeah.

Colby: Cerebrovascular disease and TIA’s are our main focus.

Donna: What?

RJ: I– I don’t know. I don’t know, Luna. I mean, I just– I feel really caught in the middle.

Luna: Yeah, it doesn’t make it easy.

RJ: I really want to just tell my dad, but I don’t want to betray my granddad.

Luna: It’s really great, you know. Your relationship with your grandfather. I mean, it’s so loving and caring. I didn’t have that with mine.

RJ: You know, here I am talking about me and all of my issues, you’re getting to know– you’re getting to know me a little bit too well, I would think. Come on, tell me, tell me a little about you. Give me just one little juicy Luna secret.

Carter: Ridge, I know this isn’t easy for you.

Ridge: It’s not easy for me. I’m worried about my dad, I’m worried about his health. I know he’s in good shape, but… I know– I know what kind of stress is created by trying to do this whole line by yourself.

Brooke: Add that to the fashion showdown.

Ridge: I’m trying to get through to him, but he’s not listening. I don’t know. There’s something going on with him. It’s almost like something is pushing him to create this line all by himself.

Donna: You knew about this?

Eric: Yeah, yeah. The good news is though that you’ve been able to cross off some of the scarier things from the list, is that right?

Colby: That’s right.

Donna: What’s scarier than cerebrovascular disease? What? Is that– is that neurological?

Colby: To be clear, I don’t have an official diagnosis yet. We need more testing. Make sure that we’re not missing anything else. I just wanted to be up front and honest with you.

Donna: Okay, I’m just hoping it’s arthritis or carpal tunnel or–

Eric: Yeah, me too, actually, but– but the, uh, doctor, the tremors are getting worse.

Colby: How so?

Eric: I was able, not too long ago, to actually pick up a pencil and hold it for a while before it started hurting and play piano with both hands, but now, I mean, this morning, in the office, I couldn’t even hold a pen to sign a contract.

Donna: Dr. Colby, please, um, as soon as you get any more results– actually, you know, why can’t we do further testing now?

Colby: It’s a process, but I assure you, my office will be in touch with the next set of tests.

Donna: No, no. Dr. Colby, I–

Eric: No, no, Donna. It’s okay, it’s okay. Uh, thank you, Doctor. I appreciate you– I appreciate you coming to the house and your discretion here. We’ll be in touch very soon. Thanks– thanks for coming.

Donna: Eric.

[ Donna sobbing ]

Luna: You know, we should really get back to Eric’s.

RJ: What? Wait a minute. Hold on, hold on. Come on. You can’t get off that easy. Plus, he’s– he’s– he’s got a– he’s got a meeting or something. Come on. I wanna hear about the mysterious Luna. Where are you from? I don’t even know where you’re from.

Luna: Okay, okay. Um, I’m from Northern California.

RJ: Okay.

Luna: The Bay Area. Um, my mom had me when she was really young, so it’s always been just the two of us and we’re like artistic free spirits.

RJ: Oh.

Luna: My grandfather and aunt are very driven. They’re very different from us. My mom’s kinda a hippie, so we’d save up all our money and splurge to go to, like, music festivals and art shows and pop up restaurants.

RJ: Well, she sounds like a really cool mom.

Luna: She is. Yeah. Um, clearly, my life is very different from yours. It’s much more modest. Yeah, I mean, we didn’t have much, but my mom always made sure I knew she loved me. And that is enough about me. My life is pretty boring compared to yours, RJ.

RJ: Boring? No. Not at all. Are you kidding me? I have so many questions. You’re even more fascinating now.

Donna: Why didn’t you tell me this?

Eric: I didn’t want to worry you.

Donna: But you– you were hiding the truth from me, Eric.

Eric: No, I– I– I didn’t want to hurt you. I’m sorry. I didn’t want to hurt you, truly.

Donna: I’m a big girl. I can handle this, okay? But not if I don’t know what’s going on with you. Eric, we’re partners, lovers. I mean, you– you mean more to me than I can even put into words. But you have to tell me what’s going on with you so I– so I can help you.

Eric: How are you gonna– how are you gonna help me play “Claire de Lune” on the piano? You gonna help me draw a flounced wrap-over? That’s the kind of help I need.

Donna: I can love you. I can hold you. I can look you in the eyes and– and tell you that you’re not going through this alone. My god, you shouldn’t have to suffer through this alone. I would certainly want that if I were in your position. I thought that you wanted that for me too.

Eric: Donna, I’m sorry.

Donna: I don’t want an apology. I want you to open up to me. I want you to share with me. I want you to realize that I’m your person. Like, what was I just saying to you earlier? That we’re gonna fight this. We’re gonna fight this together. No more secrets, okay? God, this is so unfair. I mean, you’re– I mean, you’re an artist. You’re a world renowned designer. To have your gift taken away like this, it’s– it’s– it’s a crime. We’re gonna fight this, okay? Once we find out what this is, we are gonna get the best doctors, the best therapy, the best medicine. I won’t let my honey bear lose who he is. I won’t.

Eric: All right.

Donna: Eric… I know you’re so strong and you’re so proud and you’re so proud, but if we’re being honest, I have to tell you, I’m really getting scared. Please. Please, Eric, I think it’s really time. It’s time. Time to tell Ridge. Please. The whole family.

Luna: I can’t thank you enough.

RJ: Why? For what?

Luna: I don’t know. Just being so welcoming. Letting me be a part of the inner circle, even as an intern.

RJ: Well, you know, wait until the initiation.

Luna: Oh, stop.

RJ: I’m kidding.

Luna: No, I just– I think you’re super special. I mean, I could tell how amazing you were just by following you online, but meeting you in person, seeing the way you are with your grandfather, it just– all I know is that when your dad finds out why you’ve been helping your grandfather, he’s just gonna love and respect you even more. I’m serious, RJ. I mean, you’re an incredibly special person. You’re kind and talented, generous and very handsome.

Brooke: Oh, I hate to see you worry so much. I have an idea. Why don’t we play hooky for the rest of the day, okay?

Ridge: Huh?

Brooke: Yeah. We could do something, breathe inspiration back into you.

Ridge: What were you thinking?

Brooke: I don’t know. Let’s go to the beach. Take a walk, maybe have lunch on the pier. Go to the spa. You know I always have standing reservations. No? Okay. I know. I’ve got keys to a big empty house with a big empty bed.

Ridge: See, now you’re making sense. I appreciate what you’re trying to do. I just– I– I can’t shake this concern I have for my dad. What is he doing? A whole collection by himself? Why now? Why?

Eric: Donna, we don’t have to get into this now.

Donna: Actually, I think we do. I really think it’s time that you reconsider and tell Ridge and the whole family. You need all the love and support that you can get.

Eric: No, no, no, no. That’s the last thing I want, Donna. I wanna do this alone. I wanna do this my way. Look, I’m a designer. The whole world knows it. And when I finish with this competition, I’m gonna be the best designer. It’ll prove it to Ridge once and for all.

Donna: You don’t need to prove anything else, Eric. You’ve already done that. Look, I– I went along with your wishes, but things have changed. I say we just end this stupid competition and tell them what’s going on. You’re sick, Eric. You’re sick. And– and now, you’re playing games with your son.

Eric: No, no. This is not a game. I’m sorry, honey. It’s not a game, Donna. It’s a very serious competition between Ridge and me. We’re going head-to-head, winner take all. This is gonna be my finest collection. My final line, my last line.

Donna: But if you do this, it could be your final line.

Eric: That’s even more reason for me to do this, isn’t it? Run this company from behind that desk? Don’t tell Ridge, don’t tell anyone, don’t tell your sisters. I don’t want anyone to know. I wanna do it my way. Look, I– I built this company with– with these two hands. I used to be able to thread a needle with this. I did all of it by hand and I can take this company back. I can run Forrester Creations from that desk again and I’m gonna do it, you’ll see. And Ridge, Ridge will see who gets the most orders. There’s only one master here and it’s me. It’s Eric Forrester.

Donna: Yeah.

Eric: Okay.

Ridge: I don’t know what my dad needs from me, I really don’t, but I know what he wants. He wants this competition. Maybe, I’ll just have to beat him and that’ll be the end of it.

[ Donna sighing ]

Donna: Okay, I’m gonna make us more tea, okay?

Eric: Wonderful.

Donna: I love you so much, honey bear.

Eric: I love you too.

Donna: Be right back.

Eric: Okay.

At the police station, Shawn was on the phone with Belle. Jada overheard him say he wanted to get his life back together and be a better husband to Belle. They made plans to go out to dinner. When he got off the phone, he was surprised to see Jada. He told her he thought she was in London with Rafe. She said she came back because Rafe thought one of them should be in Salem.

She wondered if Shawn was ever going to tell her what he did. Jada let her know that no one else knew about it. She said that Talia felt bad about what happened. She left them alone to talk. He was about to explain when she slapped him. He acknowledged that he deserved it. She couldn’t believe that he cheated on her. He told her that he didn’t tell the truth because it would hurt more than the lie. She didn’t think he would ever cheat on her, but she knew their relationship was a lie. She thought he was paying her back for being with Philip and EJ. He said that wasn’t true. He felt like she should forgive him since he forgave her. He will do anything to get her forgiveness.

Audra: You know, I actually think she was impressed, I stood my ground. She even offered to be my mentor.

Tucker: That’s rich.

Audra: Yes, it is.

Tucker: I’d stay away from that.

Audra: Um, I– I think she meant it.

Tucker: No, she didn’t mean it. What she meant to do was flatter you and therefore, control you. Now, you would do well to maintain a respectable distance from Nikki’s mentorship. The good news, however, is that you wouldn’t have to worry about either pleasing or upsetting her if you are still interested in, uh, changing trains and joining me on the jabot express.

Audra: You know, I have to hand it to you, Tucker. Only you would actually believe you could take jabot away from the Abbotts and make it sound easy.

Tucker: It’s more than a belief. It’s a certainty.

Audra: Hm. How so, evil genius?

Tucker: Yeah, you mock. I’m serious as a rattlesnake.

Audra: It was a compliment.

Tucker: Ah, thank you. So, I have put in motion a plan to raise suspicion that Billy Abbott has been embezzling from Jabot.

Audra: How did you manage that?

Tucker: Uh, details are boring.

Billy: Look, Phyllis… I think you’re scared. You owe a lot of money and your usual sources are all dried up, and when your back’s against the wall, you start to get desperate and you make bad choices.

Phyllis: Oh.

Billy: Like getting involved with tucker McCall.

Phyllis: Mm. Wow. Listen to you. All of that from one itty bit of a phone call you overheard. Wow, you should be a fortune teller. I hear there’s a carnival leaving town.

Billy: You haven’t answered my question.

Phyllis: What’s the question?

Billy: You and tucker.

Phyllis: But why would you think I’d be involved with tucker McCall again?

Billy: I’ve seen the two of you together more than a few times. The vibe I get is that the two of you are cooking something up that’s a little south of legal.

Phyllis: Ooh, maybe we’re having an affair.

Billy: You have a better taste than that.

Phyllis: Uh, yeah, we’re finished here, there’s nothing more to discuss.

Tucker: Not even your daughter?

Phyllis: My daughter has no part in this.

Tucker: Well, in this, that’s right, that’s right. But she is eventually, going to need a job, is she not?

Phyllis: She has a job.

Tucker: What do you mean? Marchetti? Here’s the thing about that. Uh… [ Clears throat ] When I take over jabot, and I will take over jabot, make no mistake, I’m gonna streamline it, I’m gonna get back to basics, you know. The cosmetics and scents and all that crap. I just don’t see a place for fashion.

Phyllis: You’re not gonna do that.

Tucker: Watch me.

Phyllis: I’m gonna warn jack. I’m gonna tell him everything you’ve done.

Tucker: No, you won’t, ’cause you know all the dominoes that would fall if you did. You know your role in this little operation. If I go down, you go down. And considering your recent history with the law, your downfall might be a little more permanent.

Phyllis: Wow. You think you have it all worked out, don’t you?

Tucker: You’re good at the game Phyllis, but I’m better. You watch your step from now on. And I would not make any threats you can’t back up. And by the way, the money I transferred will not include your 20% aggravation fee. You should consider yourself lucky I’m not charging you the same fee, for all the aggravation you’ve caused me.

Jack: Mamie, I could not be happier to have you back in town. Why didn’t you tell us you were coming?

Mamie: Oh, and deprive myself of the joy that I get from seeing that look of surprise on your face, Jackie? No, no. You have the best reactions of anyone that I know.

Jack: Oh, Mamie

[ Mamie laughs ]

Mamie: And it never gets old. Your father and I used to just have so much fun just watching you open the presents. Either it be on Christmas, on your birthday, just genuine delight. And awe. And now, I get to see that look on your face every time I show up at your door. Oh, I just love it! I love it.

Traci: But if you told us, we could have got your room ready, and we could have planned a– a special dinner party, maybe, um, invited over your grand niece and nephew.

Mamie: No, see, no, that’s exactly why I like to show up unexpectedly. I don’t like all this fuss.

Jack: Mamie.

Adam: Good morning, Jack. Hey, congratulations, by the way. I heard you and Diane got married.

Jack: Well, thank you. I appreciate that. We haven’t had too many well-wishers.

Adam: Well, I wish you both all the best.

Jack: I appreciate that, and I hope you know i want the best for you as well.

Adam: From your tone, I’m guessing you’ve heard the best is not what I’m getting, lately. But yes, you’re– you’re right. Things have been a little rough since I’ve been fired from Newman.

Jack: Yeah, I imagine that was quite a blow.

Adam: But hey, I will survive, right?

Jack: I have no doubt at all. So, thank you for meeting me today.

Adam: Yeah, I– I wasn’t surprised to hear from you. I heard Billy tapped you as chief negotiator.

Jack: No, actually, I wanted to meet with you, to talk about tucker and whatever dirt you might have on him.

Adam: Yeah, ’cause you and i have a better relationship than I have with Billy.

Jack: I would call it less explosive.

Adam: Yeah, that’s true.

Jack: So, tell me, what have you got? I’m interested.

Jack: You’re not maybe looking for a little leverage?

Adam: No, in the past I probably would have tried to weasel a job out of this. I mean, I am technically unemployed at the moment.

Jack: I already offered you a job.

Adam: Yeah, that’s true. And if I was gonna make a play for something, I probably would go for Billy’s job, co-CEO.

Jack: The position you had before and walked away from.

Adam: Yes, the irony is not lost on me.

Adam: Look, I’ve made a big deal about how I wanna live differently, without all the games. I want to get back to the basics. I wanna put in the work that it requires, okay? This is me walking the walk or at least trying to.

Sally: By telling me that you can’t stop thinking about kissing me.

Adam: Right, look, if I had pretended like it didn’t affect me, that wouldn’t fly. All right, you know me too well. It would be an act that you’d see right through. And if I said nothing about it, you would have been worried what’s really going on inside my head.

Sally: I– I– I think you’re overthinking this.

Adam: Look, when I tell people that I’m determined to live in a more authentic way, everybody gets suspicious or they just immediately dismiss the idea, or they laugh. Okay? Nobody believes it.

Sally: Since when do you care what other people think?

Adam: See, that is the point. If I’m really gonna make this change, I have to stay on track and I have to ignore those reactions. Like the one you just had.

Sally: I didn’t laugh or dismiss you.

Adam: Yeah, you kinda did. You assumed that I was putting on a front instead of just telling you the simple truth. I loved kissing you again and how it felt. It reminded me how good we are together. And for a moment there, I thought you may have been reminded as well.

Billy: You know, Jack, I think you’re right. I don’t think things are working out for me here at Jabot. I should take my energy somewhere else.

Jack: You would not be that petty.

Billy: Tell that to the aggrieved, competitive little brother.
