Recap written by Eva

Portia and Finn try to resuscitate Rory, but they are unable to save him and Trina is devastated by his death. Trina goes to the hospital chapel and wonders why God took a good man who only wanted to help people. Trina tells Josslyn that if she had told Rory that she loved him maybe he wouldn’t have gone out on the call that cost him his life.
Josslyn tells Trina that none of this is her fault and that she couldn’t tell Rory she loved him because she wasn’t ready to say those words to him.

Elizabeth finds an earring in Rory’s pocket that doesn’t belong to Trina and Jordan thinks the earing belongs to the hook attacker.

Ava asks Victor to persuade Nikolas to give her more money in her divorce settlement or she will give the video of Nikolas confessing to being responsible for Esme’s disappearance to the police.

Cameron asks Josslyn what she wanted to talk to him about before they came to the hospital. Josslyn tells Cameron that isn’t important now because Trina needs her.

Valentin and Anna is staying in a town just outside Amsterdam because Valentin thinks that Victoria’s favorite jeweler may know where Victor is hiding Lucy.

Elizabeth rushes to Wyndamere and when she sees that Esme is with Nikolas, she tells him they need to talk privately. Elizabeth tells Nikolas that there has been another hook attack so, she gave up Finn and he gave up Ava because they thought they were keeping people safe from the hook attacker, and now they know Esme isn’t the killer.

Spencer tells Cameron he isn’t leaving town now because Trina needs him and he wants to be there when Esme is caught by the police.

Update written by Barbara

At the Abbott house, Kyle returns from his time away sooner than expected, with time to help Summer finish decorating the Christmas tree. Jack and Traci talk about hanging the special Abbott ornaments. Jack, Kyle and Summer make sure that Traci continues to have no idea that Diane is hiding in the family cabin. As Traci leaves to go out for drinks with a friend, she says that she has a feeling that everything is going to be alright. After Traci leaves, Summer urges Kyle and Jack to be careful since they’re leaving to deal with Jeremy.

Summer goes to Jabot and is surprised to find her mother there. Phyllis tells her that she is cleaning out the things from her office. They talk back and forth, with Summer saying that she hopes they can move past what has happened and be a family again.

Phyllis mentions how upset she is about how her daughter fired her as an act of solidarity with Diane, and says that she has no intention to get over it anytime in the near future. Summer remains steadfast that Phyllis being fired was due to her actions, since she encouraged a dangerous man to come to Genoa City in her attempt to get Diane to leave.

Kyle and Jack arrive at Jeremy’s hotel suite and Kyle knocks on the door. Jeremy gestures for them to come in. He lets them know that he heard that Diane left Genoa City again and says what a shame he thinks it is. Kyle tries to get at Jeremy but Jack stops him.

He and Kyle stick to their story that Diane left town with nary a word, and has gone who knows where. Jeremy suggests that perhaps they’ve got Diane stashed until he leaves, but Jack steers Jeremy the conversation to money. He urges Jeremy to accept his offer because it’s the closest he’ll get to reimbursement. Jeremy says he won’t make any promises.

Ashley and Tucker are at Crimson Lights where she continues to be leery of Tucker’s motives behind him wanting her to build a new empire. Tucker tells her that he’s only interested in her happiness and thinks she could be a huge success at it.

She asks Tucker why she would need him then and he admits that she wouldn’t, although he thinks they could be good together. Ashley decides to head home but not before thanking Tucker for picnic earlier.

Jack and Kyle return to the Abbott house and tell Summer about having made an offer to Jeremy. Jack says that now they have to wait because Jeremy was open to considering it.

Ashley comes in the front door, and much to the relief of Jack, Kyle and Summer, who are quiet, Ashley says that she’s going upstairs to take a bath.

Once she has left the room, Kyle says that he hates the idea of Diane feeling abandoned on Christmas and that he wants to quietly go back to the cabin. Summer is taken aback that he would do that on Christmas eve at the Abbott house. Kyle tells her and Jack that they didn’t see the tears in his mother’s eyes when he said good bye to her.

At Chelsea’s apartment, she and Billy have movie night, munching on popcorn and watching “It’s a Wonderful Life.” She says that although a few scenes will be a challenge for her to see, the overall story is filled with hope about someone realizing the value of life.

There’s a knock on the door and it’s Adam, showing up with gifts for Chelsea and Connor. He hesitates when he sees Billy sitting on the couch. Billy says that he was just going to head out. Once he’s gone, Adam tells Chelsea that he assumes she is not up for the big Newman family gathering. She surprises him by saying that she wants to go and tells him that after talking with Sharon, she wants start trying to live a normal life again.

Phyllis goes to the coffeehouse and slumps to put her head down on the counter. Tucker sees her and remarks that it looks like someone’s having “a hell of a day.” Phyllis tells him that she didn’t ask him and he goes on to suggest that she stop fighting the world so hard because it tends to make you feel better.

Over at Society, Devon and Lily tell Daniel that they are greenlighting his gaming endeavor with Hamilton-Winters. However, Devon is a bit concerned because Daniel doesn’t have his creative team together yet and it takes time with huge undertakings.

Daniel says he wants to announce the gaming platform in March, but Devon thinks this three month timetable is unrealistic. Daniel questions him, which results in Lily suggesting that they table the discussion for now.

When Daniel realizes Phyllis is available to be hired, he presses her to join his new gaming platform. He says that since Phyllis is a gamer and a high level hacker, he thinks she’s a good fit for his platform. He tells her that he wants her to join him in solidifying his platform he is going to have with Chancellor-Winters.

Downstairs at the coffeehouse, Billy is waiting for Lily. When she gets there, they speak uncomfortably. When Lily mentions the idea of couples counseling, Billy says that she must think he’s going off the rails. Lily tells him this is not the case, rather, she doesn’t think they can handle what’s going on between them on their own. Billy is amenable and says that he will set something up with couples counseling after the holidays. They hold hands across the table.

Back in Jeremy’s hotel suite, he is on the phone with someone about having unfinished business in Genoa City and mentions that he has some “stuff” to take care of on his own.

Update written by Dustin

At Sonny’s penthouse, Nina found a crayon drawing stuffed in the cushions of the couch with the word “MOMMY” written on it.. Sonny came in, and he said that he was glad that Donna and Nina had started to grow close. Nina recalled that Josslyn had stopped by to point out that Nina was not allowed to spend time with Donna. Nina wondered if spending time with Donna was worth it.

Nina shared that because Nelle had been taken away from her at birth, she had a hole in her heart that she would always try to heal. She said that the more time she spent with Donna the more she was afraid that she was opening her heart to heartbreak at a later date. Sonny understood, but he didn’t think she had anything to worry about. Nina still insisted that she should keep her distance from Donna. Sonny agreed to Nina’s new terms (despite how much grief he had been put through getting Carly to agree to allow Nina to see Donna in the first place), but he said there was nothing he would like more than for Nina to have a close relationship with Donna.

In a private room of Metro Court, Denise told Carly that Drew no longer had a reason to search for Willow’s birth mother. Carly asked about Willow’s biological father. Denise remarked that the check Carly had given her would only cover one deceased parent and that information on Willow’s father would cost Carly more.

Denise threatened to expose Carly for the lies she had told Drew and Willow. Carly was disgusted, but needed the information so she gave Denise another check. She told Denise that she was an awful person. “It could be worse. I could be paying someone to lie about someone else’s parents being dead. At least I own who I am and what I’m doing. Trust me, your life would be a lot easier if you looked in the mirror and did the same,” Denise told Carly.

At the Metro Court restaurant, Drew shared with Willow’s biological mother had died. Drew encouraged Willow not to give up hope. An upset Willow left to go for some air. Outside on the patio, Willow struggled to control her emotions. Drew found Willow, and he realized she was in tears. It was at that moment, that Drew connected all the times that Willow had looked pale, when she had passed out, when she had felt faint, when she said she was “just tired.” “Oh, my God. You’re sick, aren’t you? He asked.

Willow shared that she had Stage 4 leukemia, and she added that she didn’t know how much time she had unless she could find a family member for a bone marrow donation. Drew hugged Willow and did his best to consoler her.

Willow said that although she was receiving chemotherapy, it wasn’t enough. Drew was sympathetic, and Willow asked Drew to promise that he wouldn’t tell anyone that Willow was sick. “Not even Carly,” Willow emphasized.

Carly told Willow she was sorry that her birth mother was dead. She said that Willow had all the family she needed in Port Charles. Willow thanked Drew, and she left. Afterwards, Carly remarked that she hadn’t realized how important it was for Willow to find her birth parents. “Neither did I,” Drew replied.

At Charlie’s Pub, Alexis and Gregory shared cocktails before Finn arrived at the bar. Alexis asked Gregory to give her a chance to talk privately to Finn, and Gregory agreed. Finn then told Alexis that things between him and Elizabeth were over.

Finn left the pub, and afterwards, Gregory said that his family was in Alexis’ debt. Later, outside Charlie’s, Ava encountered Finn. Ava asked what was on Finn’s mind. He totally ignored her and walked away.

At Wyndemere, Ava wanted to discuss her marriage to Nikolas. Nikolas said that while he wanted Ava to move back in, the timing was wrong because Spencer had just moved back in, as well. Ava said she hoped Nikolas would “press pause” on their plans for divorce. Elizabeth arrived in the foyer.

A surprised Ava wanted to learn from Nikolas why Elizabeth was at Wyndemere and why she had her own set of keys to the castle. Elizabeth made up an excuse about Nikolas having volunteered his family’s history for a school project that Aiden was working on. Ava bid Nikolas goodnight, and she left.

Alone in the living room, Nikolas shared that he and Elizabeth would have to be careful because Spencer had moved back into the mansion. Elizabeth replied that that wasn’t their only concern, and she handed Nikolas the bottle of prenatal vitamins. “Congratulations! You’re gonna be a father again… to my child,” Elizabeth said with a smile.

Elizabeth called her ridiculous plan to tell Finn that the prenatal vitamins he had found at GH and Wyndemere were hers. She wanted to tell Finn the truth but Nikolas told her that if she did, Finn would send the cops to Spoon Island and she and Nikolas would likely go down for the false imprisonment of Esme. He warned that this could mean she would be required to serve time away from her boys. Elizabeth couldn’t believe that she had become the kind of person that would go along with Nikolas’ plan. Nikolas said that sometimes you had to do deplorable things because they were in the interest of the greater good. Elizabeth said that if that were true that he must sacrifice his relationship with Ava, so that he could concentrate on the task at hand; keeping Esme off the streets.

Adam brings over Christmas presents for Chelsea and Connor and to make plans for Christmas. Chelsea tells Adam that her therapist and Sharon have both told her she needs to start reengaging with the world, so she has decided to go spend Christmas with Adam and Connor at the Newmans.

Ashley and Tucker have hot chocolate at Crimson Lights and Tucker continues trying to persuade Ashley to leave Jabot and let him help her start her own company. Ashley figures out Tucker wants to create a distraction for her while he tries to take over Jabot. Ashley thanks Tucker for the picnic and tells him that she has learned a lot today.

Billy agrees to go to couples counseling with Lily because he can see it is important to her that they get counseling.

Lily and Devon hire Daniel to create the new gaming platform Omega Sphere for them and Daniel hires Phyllis to oversee the day-to-day operations for the new platform.

Jack and Kyle go to talk to Jeremy Stark to see if they can persuade him to allow them to repay the money that Diane owes him. Jeremy tells them he will consider letting them pay him the money.

Update written by Dustin

Sam met Maxie at the café, and Sam questioned Maxie on why they were meeting. Maxie mentioned that she thought that Sam would be the best possible person to provide her with some well-needed perspective on her current situation. She told Sam about what had transpired between Austin and Spinelli. The lying, the blackmail, the ordering of her and Austin’s compatibility report behind her back and Spinelli’s constant interference in her relationship with Austin. Maxie mentioned that she had trusted Austin when they first met but that trust had faded. Maxie confessed that perhaps Spinelli and Georgie had been right from the beginning and she should have trusted their intuition. Sam advised Maxie to reassess her entire situation using her own intuition and then proceed accordingly.

Nikolas arrived at the gallery, startling Ava. He told her that he would always love her, and she replied wistfully, “If only that was all it took to fix things.” She invited him to join her for takeout, but he said he would not be staying. He admitted that he was only there to make a special delivery. He handed her an incredibly thick group of papers and a pen. Ava looked at the papers and all the happiness drained for her face. “Divorce papers?” she snapped. She believed that something had driven him to go ahead with the divorce and Victor was first in line. After some badgering, he blurted out that he’d had an affair with Elizabeth.

Ava wanted details of the affair, but Nikolas would only tell her that Elizabeth was pregnant. He was determined not to fail another child. He advised her to look at the very generous offer. Ava saw a letter opener on the table and picked it up. She swung at him, but only pinned the papers to the wall. “That’s what I think of your offer,” she murmured. “You could have killed me!” he exclaimed. “Remember that,” she shot back. He apologized, as he’d never wanted to hurt her. “God have mercy on you because you’ll get none from me,” she said coldly, and he left.

Josslyn arrived at Kelly’s with an armful of toys for donation, and Dex offered to help her, but she insisted that she could do it herself. With Spencer acting incredibly rude toward Dex, Dex asked Cameron to cancel his order, and said that he would gladly go to another restaurant. Cameron said that was fine, but Spencer demanded that Dex pay for his order. Dex smugly took out a roll of cash and told Spencer that Sonny paid him well. Spencer punched Dex, who fell on the floor. Dex popped back up, and Spencer dared Dex to punch him.

Cameron separated Spencer and Dex, and Josslyn couldn’t believe that Spencer was already causing problems, freshly out of prison. Spencer explained that Cameron had told him that Dex had put Josslyn in danger, and he yelled at Dex to leave. Josslyn assured Dex that he didn’t have to listen to Spencer. “You have no clue what I do or don’t have to do,” Dex responded, and he left Kelly’s. Cameron didn’t want Spencer to hurt people because of anything he had said. Spencer believed that the attitude of his group of friends had changed in his absence, and he said he didn’t believe he was no longer wanted or needed. Spencer then stormed out. Cameron suggested that, with all the craziness around them, he and Josslyn go somewhere nice, just the two of them. Josslyn said that sounded really nice but they needed to talk first.

Rory arrived outside at the address of an apartment that he had gained knowledge of by improperly looking through Dante’s filed. He knocked. The door opened when he knocked, so he announced himself and went in. The door slammed shut behind him, and the Hook appeared. From outside the apartment, Dante heard gunshots and called for backup. He announced himself and kicked in the door to the apartment. He found a man bleeding on the floor and checked for a pulse. Just then, Rory emerged, bleeding, from another room. He fell onto the couch and told Dante it had been, “The Hook.”

Trina entered Jordan’s office and asked if she’d seen Rory. Jordan informed Trina that Rory was probably around the station somewhere, as his shift had just ended. Jordan advised Trina to stick around because Rory would love to see Trina. “Not for long,” Trina muttered. She excused herself to go to Kelly’s, and she left. A few minutes later, Jordan’s phone rang, and she learned of Dante’s call for backup.

Jordan arrived at the apartment which was now an official crime scene. The suspect lay on the floor with what appeared to be at least one gunshot wound to the chest. Dante explained that he had to have just missed the killer, and the woman they suspected could have jumped out the window. Jordan advised an officer to set up a 10 block perimeter to look for the killer. Jordan didn’t think Rory could wait for the ambulance, so Dante and the other officer carried Rory out of the apartment. Jordan put in a call for the medical examiner and crime scene unit to get to the apartment.

At General Hospital, Portia showed Elizabeth some of her options for wedding dresses. However, Portia was unsure about getting married in February, when “the Hook” killer was still on the loose. Elizabeth thought it would give everyone in Port Charles something nice to look forward to. Portia reminded Elizabeth that she and Finn hadn’t yet RSVP’d. Elizabeth said that she would definitely be there, but she couldn’t speak for Finn, as they had ended their relationship.

Gregory ran into Finn at the elevators on the 10th floor of General Hospital, he insisted on taking him to dinner. He knew that Finn hadn’t been doing well, and he told Finn that Violet had also picked up on it. Finn admitted that he and Elizabeth were through. Gregory wondered if Finn wanted to salvage the relationship, but the conversation was interrupted.

Jordan arrived with Rory, Dante, and the other officers, and Portia, Finn, and Elizabeth got Rory onto a stretcher. Dante revealed that they’d need the antivenom, as Rory had been attacked by the Hook.

At Volonino’s gym, Curtis helped Alexis out with the punching bag. He explained that they needed to “establish a winning mindset” before they tried to catch a serial killer. A short while later, Alexis emerged from the locker room after having changed. Curtis told her that the PCPD had been “tight-lipped” with any information about “the Hook” killer, and Alexis wasn’t sure what else they could do.

Dex arrived at the gym, and thought about Josslyn as he beat up the punching bag. Curtis returned a short while later and eyed Dex, deeming him far enough away to talk to Alexis. As Curtis explained that Ryan didn’t think that Esme was the killer, his phone rang, Jordan asked Curtis to pick up Trina and bring her immediately to the GH, as there had been another attack. While he talked to Jordan, Alexis got a text from Gregory that read, “911 at GH.” They ran out, Dex thought about Josslyn more as he worked over the punching bag.

Spencer ran into Trina as he exited Kelly’s. He sarcastically talked about how he wasn’t supposed to stick up for anyone anymore. Whatever he’d done, Trina said she was sure that his heart had been in the right place, and he probably just needed to work on his execution. He figured he could do that the next time he was in town. He revealed that he was leaving as soon as the terms of his prison release were met, as Port Charles was no longer a home. He said, “I’m going to move on, and I’m going to disappoint strangers” instead of the people he loved.

Curtis arrived with news for Trina that he said Cameron and Josslyn needed to hear, also. The three went into Kelly’s, and Curtis informed the kids that they needed to go with him to the hospital immediately, on Jordan’s orders, as she wanted eyes on all four of them. He revealed that there had been another attack. Trina asked who had been attacked, and Curtis reluctantly answered that it was Rory.

At the hospital, Alexis asked Dante if the Hook killer had struck again. Jordan ordered Dante to go get cleaned up, so he left. Jordan stated that an officer was fighting for his life after a cowardly and brutal attack, and she would do anything she could for justice. “I’ll be damned if we lose another one of our own, and you can quote me on that,” she added, and she walked away.

In the operating room, Finn, Portia, and Elizabeth worked on Rory. Finn ordered Elizabeth to administer the antivenom, but she reminded him that it was in short supply. Finn replied that the poison would kill Rory if the injuries didn’t, so she injected the antivenom into the I.V.

Jordan informed Dante that Mac was at the apartment, and Dante offered to see if Mac needed help. But , Jordan refused and said she wanted him to stay at the hospital, as he needed to see things through for Rory’s sake. Trina and Curtis arrived with Josslyn, Cameron and Spencer in tow. Trina immediately asked how Rory was doing. Portia told her that Rory had lost a lot of blood, and he was bleeding internally. Trina wanted to see him, but Portia added that he was very weak. But moments later Rory was being wheeled to the elevators, and Trina ran over to him. He took his oxygen mask off and groaned that he knew it had been too soon to tell her how he felt about her, but he wasn’t sorry for doing it. “When you know, you know,” he said, and he passed out.

Update written by Barbara

Fresh off their heated conversation at Jabot, Phyllis follows Summer to Society where Summer is picking up a to-go order and relentlessly asks her whether she’s going be fired from Marchetti.

Phyllis continues to blame Diane over and over again for the chaos with Jeremy, causing Summer to call her mother out for taking no accountability in the situation.

Summer tells Phyllis that she already discussed the Marchetti issue with Kyle and they have decided to terminate Phyllis’s employment there, effective immediately.

Phyllis looks aghast and can hardly believe what she is hearing. Summer tells her that she hopes she at least learns something, takes her to-go bag and leaves.

All the while, Adam is at the bar and has been listening to the loud conversation between Phyllis and Summer. He sends a drink over to Phyllis.

Lauren and Michael come into Society arm-in-arm and Phyllis lays blame on them too. Michael quickly reminds Phyllis that he had told her if she went after Diane, it could backfire.

At the coffeehouse building, Chelsea comes down from her apartment. Sharon greets her and asks why she didn’t join Connor to watch him play soccer in the park.

Chelsea tells Sharon that it feels strange and uncomfortable venturing beyond her apartment and the coffeehouse. Sharon gently encourages Chelsea to take a step or two outisde her comfort zone.

Victoria walks in and Chelsea tells her that she would like a chance to make amends. At first, Victoria declines, saying that she is having a car take her to the airport for a business trip. She has a change of heart, however, and lets Chelsea know that she has a little time to spare before her trip and the two women go upstairs to Chelsea’s apartment.

Chelsea apologizes for trying to destroy Victoria’s marriage when she first came to town and for being too pushy about Johnny finding out about his bio mom.

Victoria expresses reservations about Chelsea’s intentions, but Chelsea says that her focus is entirely on getting better.

At Newman Enterprises, Nikki and Nick are talking business and she tells him that she wants him to lead meetings while Victoria is away. She tells him that she wants him to put forth some leadership skills.

Nikki expresses her enjoyment of watching her children shine in the ways she knows they can, with the exception of Nick’s personal life, clearly meaning his relationship with Sally. Nick gets a little impatient with Nikki’s concern about it, but Nikki continues, emphasizing that Sally had faked a terminal illness while in LA. She also asks Nick if he really wants to bring another Ashland Locke into the family.

Nick counters that Sally is nothing like Ashland. He says that unlike Ashland, Sally has learned from her mistakes. He adds that he is not worried about any issues with Summer due to what Sally did to her because he’s sure that Summer wants her father to be happy.

At that moment, Sally comes into the office at Newman and speaks with Nick in a flirting manner after Nikki leaves. She hands him her tablet and asks him to look at the new numbers for her business plan.

With a gleam in his eyes, Nick tells her that he likes what like what sees and starts spouting off information in business language. At one point, he and Sally get close and he says he likes spending time with her, working with her, laughing. The spark between them is palpable and he requests that Sally find time in her busy schedule to fit him in so they can go to dinner sometime. She tells him that the idea of planning dates and taking things slow is new to her because it was the opposite with Adam.

She and Nick lean in to kiss, but she pulls back and says that she has to go pick up a takeout order at Society. As she leaves, she tells Nick that she will pencil him in.

Allie and Noah come into the coffehouse and she excuses herself to go to the patio to take a phone call. Sharon goes over to Noah and tells him that Audra was there earlier looking for him. Allie finishes her phone call and as she’s about to go back into the coffeehouse she overhears this.

When she’s alone with Noah, Allie presses him about what’s going on with him and Audra. Reluctantly, he tells her that Audra came looking for him at the club and in an attempt to lure him back, she kissed him.

He tells Allie that he pulled away from her, with no hesitation, but Allie persists. She asks Noah if he kissed Audra back, even a little bit. He becomes uneasy and says that it happened so fast he can’t be sure. Allie asks him to tell her if she needs to be worried.

At Society, Sally bumps into Adam at the bar and lets him know that she’s not afraid of running into him. She tells him that she thinks their relationship has had a natural resolution and Adam says he’s glad she feels that way.

Sally tells Adam about her business plan for starting an interior design company with Chloe and how she would like to partner with Chancellor-Winters to design for their offices, hotels

Adam wishes Sally success in her undertaking and adds that he hopes Nick brings her the happiness she deserves. She lets him know for sure that she and Nick are officially seeing each other and taking things slow.

Afterward, Sally goes over to Phyllis, Lauren and Michael, bragging to Phyllis about how she and Chloe are launching an interior design business and they will probably be going head-to-head with Marchetti Home and will be their biggest competitor.

Adam looks over from his seat at the bar, intrigued, while and Lauren and Michael head for the bar. Michael comments about ordering a bottle of scotch with two straws. Phyllis is left standing alone, lamenting that “everyone’s lost their damn mind”.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Summer: [ Gasps ] You’re back.

Kyle: I am. And I missed you like crazy. Mm. Tree looks phenomenal.

Summer: Mm, thank you. All we have left are your special abbott-family ornaments. I am so glad that you got back home early. We didn’t want to finish decorating without you.

Ashley: Yeah. Brr! Wow.

Tucker: Alright, what’ll you have?

Ashley: I would love a hot chocolate.

Tucker: You sure you don’t want some fancy coffee drink with foam and extra shots and scalded this and that?

Ashley: Tucker, I’m a very simple girl. Okay. [ Chuckles ] Don’t buy it, huh? How about some cinnamon on top?

Tucker: Of what? Oh, the hot chocolate?

Ashley: Yes.

Tucker: Okay. Uh, hi, sir. Uh, two hot chocolates. With cinnamon. Keep the change.

Ashley: Thank you.

Tucker: Thank you. Thanks for hanging out. It was a lovely day.

Ashley: Yeah. Brr. I’m still kind of shocked, though, that a man like you who loves his creature comforts actually wanted to surprise me with a picnic in the wintertime, no less.

Tucker: Yeah, I loved the look on your face when we got there.

Ashley: Well, it was magical.

Tucker: Oh, glad I can still dazzle you once in a while.

Ashley: Yeah. I mean, as far as picnics go, I will always remember it. A lovely and sweet moment in nature capped off by an offer to fund my very own empire. Please, would you stop being so coy and just tell me what you’re after? Because I’m dying to know.

[ Can opens ]

Billy: Aww, yes. My favorite — popcorn. You remembered.

Chelsea: And you brought my favorite seltzer.

Billy: That’s right. You know, connor picked the wrong night to go help the newmans decorate their tree. Thank you.

Chelsea: Yeah, I’m sure victor and nikki are thrilled to have so many grandchildren around them, but connor’s going to be bummed. He loves movie night.

Billy: Alright, well, we’ll wrangle him next time. So what are we watching?

Chelsea: I have it all cued up. A holiday classic.

Billy: “It’s a wonderful life.” Huh.

Chelsea: Yeah. Why? You don’t like it?

Billy: No, I mean, I like it, of course. Who doesn’t like this movie? It’s just, you know, with everything that you’ve been going through, it’s, uh…

Chelsea: I considered that. Regarding the darker scenes, I mean, I lived it. I’m working through it. I think I can handle a movie about it.

Billy: Okay.

Lily: So, devon and I ran the numbers, did some analysis of our own, and we came to realize this is going to be a very profitable long-term venture.

Daniel: Does that mean what I think it means?

Devon: It means that you can consider yourself hired because we are giving the green light to project omega-sphere.

Lily: Congratulations, and welcome to the team.

Devon: Yes, sir.

Daniel: Thank you.

Devon: Yeah, man.

Daniel: Thank you.

Devon: Of course.

Lily: Yes, of course. Thank you for pitching it to us.

Daniel: [ Sighs ] I can’t believe you guys made your decision so fast.

Devon: Well, when a project this big comes to your door, you got to give it all your attention.

Lily: So we’ll have a contract for you in the next day or two.

Daniel: Great, great. Well, I can’t wait to get started. What’s the next step?

Lily: Well, we’ll work with you on development.

Devon: Do you already have people in mind that you want to hire to help develop the platforming games?

Daniel: Mm-hmm, yeah, I’ve spoken with a few tech guys who sound interested. Now that I know that the project’s a go, I can bring in a primary developer, someone to head up the creative team.

Devon: So you don’t have anybody picked out yet, though?

Daniel: Well, experienced game designers and managers are not going to make a deal on a “maybe.” Until I knew that I had a contract signed and, you know, i know my budget, I was in no position to make any kind of promises to anyone.

Lily: Yeah, no, no, no, no. I think that you’re being very prudent on how you’ve approached people. So take your time. I mean, we want this to be right.

Devon: Yeah, of course. I don’t think you should rush anything. I just figured you ought to be ready to roll.

Daniel: I’m still on track. You know, I’m determined now more than ever to make this dream a reality. I’ll find the team. You don’t have to worry.

Devon: Okay.

Daniel: You’re not already regretting saying yes, are you? With downy infusions,

Kyle: It was the year my mom took me to live in canada. I was sad that I couldn’t be here with dad and the rest of the family. I sent them this ornament so they’d remember me and I could be here in spirit.

Summer: Aww, that’s so sweet.

Traci: [ Gasps ] Well, look who’s home from his trip.

Jack: Kyle.

Kyle: Hey, dad. Traci.

Jack: So, how did the meeting go? Did you get the issue straightened out with the fabric house?

Kyle: Yeah, we had to make some compromises, but, by the end, everyone was comfortable. No problems to speak of.

Jack: Good.

Traci: Oh, the tree is gorgeous, summer. You’ve done a fabulous job decorating.

Summer: Oh, thank you. We just have to put up all of your special abbott-family ornaments before we can declare it completely finished.

Traci: Well, I love going through the ornaments every year.

Jack: It’s a wonderful tradition. So full of memories.

Traci: Kyle, I know that this is going to be an extra difficult year for you, your mother having to leave town because of that man, jeremy stark, and it is just breaking my heart, watching you and summer trying to explain to little harrison where his dee dee went.

Summer: That has been rough.

Kyle: Especially knowing she might never come back.

Summer: Not that we’ve told harrison that.

Jack: We won’T. He needs all the reassurance we can give him.

Traci: Well, it sort of feels like our traditions are more important than ever this year, bringing the joy of the season to that precious little boy any way we can. You know, and it’s something that we all need. That and, I don’t know, a christmas miracle or two.

[ Traci and summer chuckle ]

Kyle: Amen.

Traci: So, I am very excited to go through the box of ornaments.

Summer: But first, who wants some eggnog?

Kyle: Oh. Me.

Jack: Oh, I’m definitely in. Trimming the tree is thirsty work.

Summer: Okay, so four eggnogs? Alright, coming right up.

Traci: You know what? I’ll give you a hand.

Jack: So?

Kyle: We’re going to need more than hope for a christmas miracle to end this threat to my mom.

Jack: [ Sighs ]

Billy: [ Chuckles ]

Lily: No, daniel, don’t worry. Devon and I are fully committed to helping you realize your vision.

Devon: Absolutely. Nothing has changed.

Daniel: Good. Good.

Devon: Yeah. And we understand, too, that building an entire gaming division from the ground up is a huge undertaking for the company. So we want to take our time and do things the right way.

Daniel: Well, I mean, given the level of competition out there and the risks inherent with any big launch, I can assure you that is exactly what I’m going to do, down to the last detail. Every aspect of this platform has to be seamlessly connected. If one area is weak, the whole thing falls apart. It’s unacceptable. Our flagship game isn’t just a way to spend time. It’s about giving people a believable and exciting world that’s immersive and meaningful, somewhere they can have fun and, at the same time, tackle some of life’s bigger questions, where they can face their fears, and learn to find inspiration and purpose.

Lily: I think that’s what i love most about it.

Daniel: And, listen, since we’re discussing timetable, i want to make a formal announcement in march. Let the world know what’s in store.

Devon: Which is in three months, man. Don’t you think that’s a little unrealistic? Smooth dark chocolate, refreshing peppermint,

Daniel: I promise you, I can get far enough along to announce by march.

Devon: Well, I don’t know how you figure that when you don’t have a team put together yet. We don’t have to rush anything, either. You just said yourself that if any part of the omega-sphere isn’t operating at the highest level, then the whole experience falls short, right?

Daniel: Mm-hmm, that’s true. But I’m going to be as honest and as transparent as I can with you guys for this entire process. If I think that there’s going to be a problem, I’m not going to hesitate to share it with you, because invested as I am in this project, I’m not going to lose sight of what’s at stake for all of us.

Devon: Well, I’m glad to hear that, but still.

Daniel: I realize that I’ve set an ambitious timeline, but I have identified the elements I need, and, I promise you, it’s all going to come together.

Lily: Look, let’s just leave it here, right, and just know that devon and I give you our full support to get whatever talent you need.

Devon: We do. Just keep us abreast on your progress.

Daniel: Done.

Devon: Thank you very much. On that note, I’m gonna take off. I need to get back to dominic.

Lily: How are things going on that front?

Devon: They’re going well. He’s got two little teeth coming in, so it’s fun times.

Daniel: You have to be excited for christmas. I mean, experiencing that magic through a child’s eyes, there’s nothing quite like it.

Lily: I know, and now that he’s older, he can appreciate it more.

Devon: I know, I know. I can’t wait for him to make some real memories.

Lily: Well, give me a kiss for me.

Devon: I will do that for sure. And, daniel, congratulations again, man. I look forward to us all working together.

Daniel: Oh, thanks, man. Me, too.

Devon: Alright, take it easy.

Lily: Bye. Um, I should get going, too, but I just want to say I’m so happy that you’re back in town and that devon and I can help make your dream come true.

Daniel: Thank you for trusting me to make this happen. I won’t let you down.

Tucker: Both gestures were from the heart — the picnic and the offer to help you realize your potential.

Ashley: I see.

Tucker: Just wanted to spend some time with you alone in a beautiful setting, and I would gladly help you build your own business separate from jabot. Kind of the way you did when you decamped to paris years ago.

Ashley: Mm. You heard about that?

Tucker: Mm-hmm. I was impressed by it. And with no one to stop you, you were really on the verge of great things. I was disappointed when you closed up shop and merged with jabot.

Ashley: That’s why you came, right? That’s why you’re here? You don’t really want jabot, but you just want to convince me to leave jabot? Or is it maybe a misguided attempt to protect me before you decide to pounce on my family’s business?

Tucker: Boy, you know what’d be nice? If, for once, you just took me at my word. But… I guess I knew that earning your trust was going to take time and patience.

Ashley: And then some.

Tucker: My only interest is you, ashley. Your happiness. I’m simply asking you to expand your idea of what that might look like and imagine a future, a bright future if you were on your own.

Ashley: Okay, settle down. I mean, really, jabot’s in our blood, you know, it’s part of our family. It’s part of me. It’s why I came back from europe.

Tucker: Let jack be the legacy, then. You’re the only abbott with the drive to be a maverick like your father was. And you have so much talent and expertise, I think you should go on your own.

Ashley: Then why do I need you?

Tucker: You don’T.

[ Scoffs, sighs ] Just know that you know how good we are together.

Ashley: Okay, well, I guess it’s time for me to go home. And I do want to thank you because it was a lovely and very surprising day. Thank you.

Jack: Oh, boy. Luan gave me this ornament our first christmas together. You know what? I’m going to give this to allie when she comes home. Tell her the history and invite her to hang it on the tree herself.

Traci: Oh, jack, a surprise from a grandmother she never knew. That’s just magical.

Jack: Despite everything that’s going on, I am determined to make this a magical first christmas for the newest abbotts among us.

Kyle: Mm-hmm.

Traci: Summer, are you sure that you brought all of the boxes down from the attic?

Summer: I thought I did. Are we missing something?

Traci: I can’t find my favorite ornament. It’s little silver ice skates. Katherine gave it to me when I was 6, and it was in a box that had a blue label along with the star that goes on the top of the tree.

Summer: Want me to go check?

Traci: Oh, no, no. You know, I think I might know right where it is. I will go get it, and I’ll be right back.

[ Chuckles ]

Jack: So, how did things go at the cabin with your mother?

Kyle: She’s settled in. There’s plenty of food, firewood, and things to keep her occupied.

Jack: Oh, boy, this has got to be especially difficult for diane. She’s hiding from the world yet again.

Kyle: My mother was alone for so long, spent so many holidays by herself, and now she’s missing her first christmas with harrison. I could tell she’s trying to stay strong, but I know it’s crushing her.

Summer: [ Sighs ] I feel like I should apologize again for my mom creating all of this chaos. I mean, she lured this dangerous man to town by claiming that diane turned him into the feds without even knowing that that was true. This man could resort to violence. We have no idea. I still think that we should go to the police.

Jack: Listen, stark has been very careful about not breaking the law since he’s been in town. Getting law enforcement involved, I think it’s a mistake. It would only bring more attention on diane. No, kyle and I have a plan, and we are going to see it through. Did you know some of your detergent’s fragrance

Traci: Well, this tree is magnificent.

Summer: It really is.

Traci: I have set aside some ornaments for ashley and for allie. When they get home, they can hang them.

Kyle: And the star belongs to harrison.

Jack: Absolutely.

Traci: I just can’t wait to see that, him up on your shoulders, putting the star on the tippity-top.

Kyle: That’s one of those moments I’m going to treasure.

Traci: Well, listen, as much fun as this has been, until someone else gets home, I think I’m going to go have some drinks with a friend.

Summer: Oh, how fun.

Traci: Oh, I will. Thank you.

Kyle: Here, let me help you.

Traci: Oh, thanks. And, kyle?

Kyle: Mm-hmm?

Traci: Look, for what it’s worth, diane is absolutely devoted to you and to harrison. And she is a fighter. And she has so much to fight for. So I don’t know how, but I just have this feeling that somehow everything is going to work out alright.

Kyle: I appreciate your optimism and the kind words about my mother.

Traci: Alright. Mwah. See you later. Oh.

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Jack: So I think that’s our cue now.

[ Door closes ]

Kyle: I’ll be back soon.

Summer: Please be careful. That goes for you, too.

Jack: Let’s go.

Both: For auld lang syne, my dear

for auld lang syne

we’ll take a cup of kindness yet

for auld lang syne

Chelsea: Wow, I’m really happy connor’s not here.

Billy: Yeah?

Chelsea: He used to love to make fun of me when I would sing in the car.

Billy: That’s good. You should keep doing that.

Chelsea: Tormenting my child’s eardrums?

Billy: That and singing out loud. It’s good for you.

Chelsea: Okay. I will. You know, the world had sort of faded to gray, and it feels like I’m starting to see color again, little by little.

Billy: Yeah, I snuck a couple little glances at you during the movie just to make sure you were okay.

Chelsea: Yeah, I mean, some scenes were difficult to watch, but, ultimately, it’s a story about someone who comes to realize the true value of their life, what a gift it is, what they mean to other people, something I’m feeling really strongly these days. So to answer your question, yeah, I’m okay.

Summer: Mom, you were fired. What are you doing here?

Phyllis: [ Clears throat ] I’m emptying out my office, summer. If you think I’m going to steal something, have security follow me out.

Summer: [ Sighs ] I’m disappointed that it’s come to this, but it has.

Phyllis: You say that like you had nothing to do with it, that my firing had something to do with a natural disaster or something.

Summer: Well, I didn’t really have much say in your decision to bring diane’s recently paroled ex to genoa city, did I?

Phyllis: Okay, well, that was what I did in my personal time. I mean, is it even legal to get fired for something you do in your personal life?

Summer: First of all, yes, it is. It’s called a morality clause. It’s in pretty much every employment contract. And, secondly, mom, you were repeatedly warned that if the conflict with diane continued, that you would be let go.

Phyllis: Well, we weren’t fighting in the office. In fact, I did my best to avoid her.

Summer: But you were scheming with nikki and ashley all the while to drive her out of town.

Phyllis: Yeah, but we never did that on marchetti property, so I played by your rules.

Summer: I am so sick of arguing about this. I’m really hoping, now that you’re not with marchetti anymore, that maybe eventually we can go back to being a family again.

Phyllis: Are you serious? You fired me as an act of solidarity with diane jenkins. You want me to get over it and just move on?

Jack: [ Exhales sharply ]

Jeremy: Well, look who’s here. So serious. Oh, please, come in. I heard your mom left town again. Oh, what a shame.

Kyle: Hey, don’t look so smug about it.

Jack: Hey, simmer down. That’s not going to help us at all. Did you know if you turn to cold with tide

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Are you feeling sluggish

Kyle: How my mother ever allowed herself to get involved with a guy like you, I will never understand.

Jeremy: I wouldn’t expect you to.

Jack: Look, diane got involved in a lot of things in L.A. We didn’t know about. We certainly didn’t expect to be involved in this.

Kyle: Well, you don’t have to worry about it now. She’s gone. Whatever the truth is about what happened between you, you scared her enough where she ran out on us without as much as a goodbye.

Jack: I told you not to do this. This is taking us farther away from why we’re here.

Jeremy: Which is?

Jack: We just want to talk. Look, ever since you came to town, you have been very careful about not breaking the law. You’re too smart for that. Well, I am smart enough to get the message. You apparently can elude security at your will, and you are determined to settle whatever score you have with diane. Diane is gone to. God knows where.

Jeremy: [ Chuckles ] How convenient.

Jack: Kyle and I had nothing to do with any of your business dealings with diane. We thought she was dead. There is nothing for you here now.

Jeremy: You wouldn’t happen to have stashed her away somewhere until I leave, would you?

Kyle: Hey, it is almost christmas, and my son is in tears, wondering why his grandmother isn’t there, and I have to figure out a way to explain to him when or even if we will ever see her.

Jack: Clearly, this is affecting my family. I would like to straighten this out now. Look, I offered you money before. You turned me down. Now that diane is out of the picture, we are as close as you are going to get to being reimbursed. So let’s work this out. You can go about your business, and we can get back to our lives in peace.

Jeremy: Hm. No promises. But… I’ll consider it.

Summer: I know that it’s going to take time for you to move on.

Phyllis: You know, you talk about being one big, happy family without any irony in your voice at all. It’s truly fantastic. You know, I sold my hotel so I could work with you.

Summer: But it wasn’t really about working together, and you know it.

Phyllis: All I wanted to do was protect you and support you. That’s all I wanted to do, summer. Yeah, it got messy. But something you should know is your hands get messy when you’re a mom and you’re trying to protect the people you love. And that’s what I was trying to do. And contrary to diane’s belief, no, no, it wasn’t about some petty resentment that I had toward her and her getting close to the abbotts and you and jack.

Summer: Mom, don’t try to pretend that that doesn’t bother you.

Phyllis: It bothers me because she’s trying to peddle some sanitized version of her life in los angeles, and she’s lying and I know she’s lying. I’ll never trust her.

Summer: Okay, well, not everyone despises her as much as you do.

Phyllis: Okay, you know what? You know what? That’s, um… yeah, kyle doesn’t despise her. He wants to believe her lies because it’s his mom, so I get it. But it leaves him susceptible to everything that she’s doing. She is lying, one lie after the other, and I’ve exposed everything, but nobody seems to care. And finally she was caught, and what did she do? Huh? She ran. That’s what she did. But she’s mother of the year, isn’t she?

Summer: I didn’t trust her, either. I defended you. But I’m sorry. I can’t justify you lying about kyle’s mom to a convicted criminal to get him to come after her. You put us all in danger, harrison included. And not only that, but you pitted me against my husband. You hurt me, mom. You betrayed me. Because your sole focus was driving diane away. That is why I fired you. This is on you.

Billy: [ Sighs ]

Chelsea: Well, thanks for spending this time with me.

Billy: No need to thank me. I had a good time.

Chelsea: Yeah, me, too. I think christmas is going to be a lot more meaningful this year, considering everything I’ve been through. Oh, and I have a gift for johnny. I haven’t wrapped it yet, but I will give it to you next time I see you. I know my last one was not a great idea.

Billy: Yeah, the baby blanket.

Chelsea: This one will be better.

[ Chuckles ] And you and victoria, you can decide the appropriate time to give it to him.

Billy: Okay.

Chelsea: And if it’s okay with you guys, I’m hoping the boys, johnny and connor, can spend some time together over the holidays.

Billy: Yeah, we’ll see if we can make that work. You know, I’ll talk to victoria about it.

Chelsea: I apologized to her earlier, the way I apologized to you. Seemed to go well, all things considered.

Billy: Good to know.

[ Knock on door ]

Chelsea: I’m hoping that will make victoria more amenable. You know, the boys have a great bond.

Billy: Mm.

Chelsea: I’m hoping we can encourage it. Hi, I’m angela.

Adam: Hi. I hope this isn’t a bad time. I just brought some gifts for you and for, um, connor. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to interrupt.

Billy: It’s okay. Just about to head out. Well [Clears throat] Thank you very much. I had a lovely time. And, of course, I’ll see you soon. Plenty of more classic movies to watch.

Chelsea: I’ll be sure to stock up on the popcorn.

Billy: Let me know if you need anything, okay?

Chelsea: Thanks.

Billy: Okay.

Chelsea: Bye.

Billy: Bye. Hey.

Adam: I’m still waiting on a few things for connor, but I figured I would get these to you.

Chelsea: Aww, that’s nice. I’ll be sure to put these out for him.

Adam: Yeah, whatever works.

Chelsea: Oh, I’m very excited for you to see the gift he’s making for you. That kid is creative.

Adam: Oh, I can’t wait. As long as I’m here, I figured that we could just discuss the holidays. I assume that you want to do something low-key and avoid the big newman family gathering.

Chelsea: Actually, if it’s okay with you, I’d like to go. I just saw sharon earlier, and she convinced me it’s time to face the world, even the difficult parts. I have to start trying to live a normal life again.

Phyllis: [ Exhales sharply ]

Tucker: Looks like someone’s having a hell of a day.

Phyllis: Who asked you?

Tucker: No one. It was a comment, not a reply. And I withdraw. Word to the wise — stop fighting the world so hard. The more at peace you are, the more things go your way.

Phyllis: Thanks for that.

Daniel: Mom.

Phyllis: Hey, baby.

Daniel: Hey.

Phyllis: Hey. Oh, my goodness. I’m so glad I ran into you. I’m so glad.

Daniel: You’re smiling so hard, it looks like it hurts. What’s up?

Phyllis: Yeah. Um, hey, let’s go.

Daniel: Talk to me.

Phyllis: Um, okay, well, uh…

[ Sighs ] I’m not working at marchetti anymore.

Daniel: Whoa, whoa. What? Why?

Phyllis: You know, summer and I, we mutually agreed we just have different visions.

Daniel: Uh-huh. Okay. What’s the real story?

Phyllis: Uh, does it matter? I mean, it’s all good. Anyway, the worst part about it is I did so much work. I created the entire division and someone’s just going to jump in and just make it succeed.

Daniel: So you’re free and clear?

Phyllis: Yeah. Thanks. I mean, that is the positive spin.

Daniel: Then come work with me.

Lily: Hi.

Billy: Hi. You got here fast. Do you want a coffee or tea or something?

Lily: Maybe in a minute. Should we sit?

Billy: Yeah.

Lily: Okay.

Billy: [ Clears throat ]

Lily: How’s chelsea doing?

Billy: She’s good. She’s getting stronger every day.

Lily: Good. Sounds positive.

Billy: Yeah, I think so.

Lily: You seemed a little off when I came in. Did something happen?

Billy: Adam happened. He showed up at chelsea’s door, and he oozes misery. And I just don’t think that that’s good for her right now.

Lily: Well, it kind of seems like you think you’re the only one who knows what’s good for her right now.

Kyle: I couldn’t get a read on stark. Could you?

Jack: Like all good liars, he’s very opaque, though I must say, your performance was very believable.

Kyle: That’s because my hatred for him is real. Question is, did he buy it?

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Summer: Please tell me it’s done.

Jack: We did everything we could. Now we wait.

Ashley: Hi. Kyle, you’re back from your business trip. How was it?

Kyle: Uh, g-good. Productive.

Summer: What do you think about the tree?

Ashley: Wow. Did you do that?

Summer: Most of it.

Ashley: Beautiful. You did a fantastic job.

Summer: Thank you. I enjoyed doing it.

Ashley: Okay, so you all got very quiet when I came in. Anybody want to tell me what’s going on?

Skin your face will envy?

Daniel: It is official, as of today. Chancellor-winters will be launching my new gaming platform.

Phyllis: What?

Daniel: Mm-hmm.

Phyllis: This is amazing. Congratulations.

Daniel: Thank you. Yeah, I’m just a little excited.

Phyllis: Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Tell me everything.

Daniel: It’s not, you know, just gaming as most people know it. I mean, this is a complex multiverse, and it doesn’t isolate. It expands. And it deals with people’s, like, hopes and their fears and their dreams.

Phyllis: Wow. That’s very cutting edge.

Daniel: Uh-huh. I know. I got a few coders that I’d like to hire. You know, they can get started on the nitty-gritty. But you know what I need? What I need is a heavy hitter. I need someone senior that can come in, they can build, they can manage the team of designers, all the tech people. I need someone I can trust, someone who can see to the day-to-day stuff while I’m staying focused on the big picture. Someone like you.

Phyllis: I love that, because, you know, your sister doesn’t seem to trust me, so…

Daniel: Well, I don’t agree with her. I see things differently. Look, you are an avid gamer. You’re also a hacker from back in the day.

Phyllis: Shh.

Daniel: You love this world. You know the languages inside and out. I mean, this makes sense. I would love for you to join me on this.

Billy: You know, you almost sounded a little…

Lily: Hostile? I mean, maybe so. I just — I don’t feel like i know at all what’s going on inside your head these days.

Billy: Because you have a problem with how much time I’m spending with chelsea.

Lily: No, billy, like I said, this is not just about chelsea, and this is way too big for us to ignore. So if you want to work on this relationship, if you still care about it —

Billy: Lily, yes, of course i do.

Lily: Well, then I think that we need help. I think that we should go to couple’s counseling.

Billy: Okay, what I hear you saying is that you think I’m heading off the rails again.

Lily: No, no. This is not about you. This is about us. And this is really, really important to me. And I don’t feel confident that we can handle this on our own.

Billy: Okay. Yes, let’s do that. Let’s, um… let’s set something up for after the holidays.

Lily: Thank you.

Jack: The only thing we are up to is trimming the tree and trying to engender some holiday spirit.

Kyle: We left some more amounts for you to hang.

Summer: Yeah, traci has them in this box over here.

Ashley: Oh, well, how sweet. Well, okay, then. I guess it’s been a long day. I’m going to go upstairs and take a bath.

Jack: [ Sighs ]

Summer: How did things go with stark?

Jack: He said he would consider my offer.

Kyle: There’s no telling how long he will drag this out for.

Summer: Or if we could even trust him.

Kyle: I’m thinking about going back up to the cabin so my mom doesn’t feel so abandoned tomorrow.

Summer: On christmas eve?

Jack: Wait, kyle, I know you want to do this for diane, but I think that’s risky.

Jeremy: I still have business here genoa city. No, I have some stuff here I need to take care of on my own.

Kyle: I’ll be careful to fly under the radar. Stark won’t have a clue.

Jack: You hope.

Summer: Kyle, I really wish you would reconsider.

Kyle: You didn’t see the tears in my mother’s eyes when i said goodbye to her earlier. I can’t stand the thought of her being up there alone, not on christmas.

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Kyle: [ Sighs ]

Next week on “the young and the restless”…

Victor: That’s up to adam, you know? He’s the one who turned his back on us. If he wants to be back in the fold, then let him make the move.

Tessa: Well, we’re meeting with a pregnant woman after new year’s to discuss the possibility of adoption.

Sharon: Wow, really? That’s amazing.

Daniel: Dad?

Danny: Merry christmas, son. [ Chuckles ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Rory! Rory! Oh, my god, I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry, rory.

[ Trina crying, monitors beeping ] It was…too soon… to tell you how I feel.

[ Crying ] But… I’m not sorry. When you know… you know.

[ Monitors blaring ] Rory?! Rory!? Rory! Rory! Rory! Finn: Going into v-fib! Portia: No pulse!

[ All shouting ] Charging 200. Let’s get a bag, please! Go, go, go! Let’s go. Charging. Clear!

[ Defibrillator charging ] Hey, trina. Finn: Clear!

[ Crying ] Mother. Nikolas. I was just heading over to the island. Now we can ride over together. Hey. Is something wrong? I just — I — I wish you would’ve called first. There is something wrong. Okay, talk to me. What’s going on? I don’t understand this. What is going on? I had an affair with elizabeth.

[ Voice breaking ] What were you getting from elizabeth that you didn’t get from me? My child. Elizabeth is pregnant, ava. She’s having our baby. Nikolas. You look like you lost your best friend.

[ Laptop beeps ] Nikolas: I, nikolas cassadine, being of sound mind and body… it’s ava. Don’t talk. Just listen. I, nikolas cassadine, being of sound mind and body, do hereby acknowledge and confess that I and I alone am responsible for the disappearance of esme prince. I know this because I killed her.

[ Laptop beeps ] Do I have your attention? Oh, good, good. Then come to the gallery right now. Oh, damn. Anna? You okay? Ugh! What? No. I — I’m not okay. I burnt myself. I’m seriously not okay. You know, we’ve been on the run ever since we escaped from ireland, and what do we have to show for it? Nothing. We have no evidence that lucy is alive. And even if she was, we wouldn’t know where to find her. [ Sighs ] I just… I worry we’re never gonna get back to the people who love us. Could be worse. How, exactly? I could have burned

my finger. Oh, my god. You’re ridiculous. Things can only go up from here. Hey, trina, listen to me. My mom, your mom, and finn are the best at what they do, and I’m sure they’re doing everything they can to make sure that rory is okay.

[ Crying ] No, no, no! No! I can’t just wait here! Why hasn’t somebody just told us that he’s okay?! Why hasn’t someone — hey. Why hasn’t somebody — they’re in there. They’re in there right now, working on rory. That means there’s still hope. They have to save him. They have to. They have to.

[ Coughing/sneezing ]

[ Door knocking ] Dude, you coming?

Why don’t we go someplace quiet, where you could forget you’re the mayor for 5 minutes, and I — I could forget that I’m a cassadine. Oh. We’ll have plenty of time to talk on the ride over. Besides, I really do need to check in on spencer. No, you — you can’T. What? I can’t see my grandson? I just meant he’s not at wyndemere right now. Oh, alright. Well, then I’ll ask you — how is it that he was able to get out of pentonville three weeks early? Would you believe good behavior?

[ Laughing ] No, I wouldn’T. What really happened? I mean, who was pulling the strings with that? I’ll give you three guesses, but I bet you could figure it out in one.

[ Door opens ]

[ Door closes ] You’re late. I came as soon as you called. And for future reference, I don’t like being summoned. Well, what you call being summoned, I call doing you a favor. Would you care to join me for a drink? Given your current mood, I’m not sure I should. Oh, no need to worry. Seven parts vodka, one part vermouth, and not a drop of arsenic. Well, in that case, what’s the occasion? To what are we drinking? Your wish has finally come true. My marriage to nikolas is over. He’s divorcing me. Trina, you know what a good doctor your mom is. Same with doc finn. And I can promise you, they’re doing everything in their power to save rory.

[ Crying ] I know. It’s the only thing that’s giving me hope. Because the last thing… that he said to me… and what I didn’t say back to him…

[ Sobbing ] Dr. Robinson, is there an update? I’m so sorry, baby.

[ Crying ] I’m sorry. No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!

[ Sobbing ] No, no, no!

You and portia did everything you could for him. It just wasn’t enough. Hey, can I talk to you for a second? Yeah. Of course. Was rory attacked because of his connection to trina, or was he just in the wrong place at the wrong time? Oh, I-I don’t know, joss, it’s, like, too soon to know. Okay. Okay. But it fits the pattern, right? Everybody who’s been attacked, except for brando, has some connection to trina. Rory, they were dating. Look, all I can tell you is that we’re chasing down every lead. Okay? And I promise you, we’re gonna catch this killer. I can’t believe this. Yeah. Rory had so much to live for. I want to see him. Honey, you don’t want that to be the last image that you have of rory. Besides this, uh — this is now a criminal investigation. Rory said goodbye to me. Now it’s my turn. I just want to say goodbye. Please. I-I promise I won’t touch anything. I understand, trina. Detective falconeri will go with you. Yeah, of course. What I don’t understand is victor already had spencer’s loyalty, so why would he need to get him out of jail three weeks early? Things have only gotten worse between me and spencer, and victor, seeing himself as the head of the family, he stepped in. I mean, he’s convinced that if the three of us live under the same roof at wyndemere, it’s gonna improve family relations. Well, I must tell you that when I visited spencer in pentonville, he did let on that things were a lot worse between the two of you, but he wouldn’t tell me why. I just told him that he should talk with you. It’s not that easy. Why, nikolas? What happened? I betrayed all of the people that I love the most. Ava: I don’t understand. Why aren’t you toasting my divorce? Isn’t this what you’ve been angling for all along? I can’t pretend I’m not relieved that the two of you have finally come to your senses. You implied that nicolas was ready to move on from me, and I didn’t believe you. Turns out you were right. Do you know the gory details? Well, I — I know that nikolas slept with esme. I’m not talking about esme. I’m talking about elizabeth baldwin. Elizabeth? What about her? Well, nikolas has been having sex with her for some time. Ah. I always suspected as much. I just didn’t know for sure. Did you also suspect that she’s carrying his child? Mm! Oh, my gosh. We’re not going to be able to solve everything with romance, you know? I think it’s worth a shot.

[ Laughs ] Did you? But… I feel like we owe it to marty to try to find lucy. You know we do. Because he practically sacrificed himself so that we could get away from whitten. Well, we’re not going to find her tonight, are we? And meanwhile, I’ve discovered a truly excellent case of chateau margaux in the cellar, and in the pantry, all the ingredients I need to make my world-famous beef bourguignon. Is it world famous? Charlotte likes it. Okay. And what do you think you’re going to rustle up for dessert? Creme brulée? Crepes suzette? Cherries jubilee? Or we could just go to bed. Trina, we are so sorry for your loss. Thanks for trying. I just wish we could have done more. I, uh, found this in rory’s pocket. Is it yours? Elizabeth, you, uh — you mind? I’m so glad I got to know you, rory. I’m sorry I couldn’t say the things that came so easily for you. And now there’s no time to say them. You’re, uh, thinking about nathan. At a time like this, I can’t help but remember all of the officers we’ve lost over the years. Well, if you want to talk about it, I’m here to listen. Thanks, but I need to call rory’s parents. Hey. How’s trina? Oh, baby. Oh.

[ Shakily ] Honey. You ready for me to take you home? I just — I just need to be alone.

Why?

[ Crying ] This doesn’t make any sense. All rory wanted to do was help people. His heart was so big. So much bigger than mine. Why did you take him?! I don’t get it!

[ Crying ] Do you think that we could go someplace private and talk? Oh, um… I’m sorry. Trina needs me. You okay? Yeah. I-I’m thinking about myself when I really should be thinking about rory. Yeah. Just the other day, I saw rory at the pc grill with trina, and I was so envious of him. Now I feel like a complete jerk. Spencer. It is not your fault that you love trina, too. When you say that you betrayed everyone, are you referring to the fact that you cheated on ava? Or is it something else, nikolas?

[ Cellphone ringing ] Oh, damn. I’m so sorry, honey. Ugh, I have to take it. Jordan, hi. What’s up? Oh, my god. That’s horrible. Okay. I’ll head right over to general hospital right now. Yeah. Thank you for telling me. What happened? The pcpd lost a very good man in the line of duty. I’m sorry, nikolas, but I really do have to go over to general hospital now. Listen to me. Whatever is happening over there at wyndemere, just promise me you won’t forget what matters the most. Okay? Yeah. It’s gonna be alright. I love you. Love you. Wait a minute. Are you — are you sure elizabeth baldwin is pregnant with nikolas’s baby? You underestimated your nephew. He didn’t just move on from me. He’s starting a whole new family. Well, I can only imagine how you must feel, but… why, if nikolas is capable of jumping from your bed to esme’s and then to elizabeth’s, then, for heaven’s sakes, your marriage was doomed before it even began. Look, the sooner you put this whole ugly incident behind you, the better. You’re all heart. Now, moving forward, you and I both know that a divorce can happen one of two ways — quick and easy or slow and bloody. And you may have nikolas’s written confession, but I have this. Nikolas: The means? I did it with my own two hands, tossing her over the parapet of wyndemere, my family’s estate on spoon island. The motive? Revenge. Justice. Guilt. Take your pick. Esme prince was my son spencer’s girlfriend, and I had sex with her. Now, I know how much you value your family name, and if you think this video won’t come out in divorce court, think again. I thought your son was exceptional. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss.

[ Telephones ringing in distance ] How’re you d oing? Not great. [ Sighs ] I was just breaking the news to roy’s parents. They are understandably hysterical. We might have gotten a lead. This was in rory’s pocket. Is it trina’s? No. Elizabeth asked her if it was hers. She said it wasn’T. Dr. Robinson, dr. Finn, nurse baldwin, I need to speak with you. What are you thinking? I spoke to the lab. Pending the postmortem, they ran rory’s bloodwork. Finn: And? They found trace amounts of snake venom. Which means that potentially, esme is at it again. No, that’s impossible.

Elizabeth, why do you thinkesme prince can’t be the hook killer? I just don’T. And I mean, cameron — cameron, come here for a minute, please. He doesn’t think it could be her either. Cameron: That’s true. Spencer: Commissioner, cam said that esme struggled with his mother. That doesn’t remotely prove that esme stabbed and killed a bunch of people. And, uh, cameron’s not the only one who believes that. Elizabeth: She had her chance to kill me and she didn’t, so doesn’t that mean she might not be the killer? I wouldn’t be so sure. Mayor collins. Jordan. We’re so sorry. Thank you. Officer cabrera was only a rookie, but he was well-respected, and I saw a very long and bright future ahead for him. It’s just awful. Laura. Yeah? Have you spoken with nikolas? Uh, yes. As a matter of fact, I just left him on the pier. He was headed back to wyndemere. Why do you ask? Excuse me. I — I have something I have to take care of. Cameron, I want to make sure you get home safely. I-I’ll be okay. It’ll be fine. I’ll make sure he gets home. Okay. Thank you. Mom, what’s going on? I’ll tell you when I get back. I know getting nikolas to confess on tape must have seemed like a winning strategy to you at the time. What does that mean? Well, it means that if you were to show this evidence to a court now, I very much doubt you’d get the closure you’re looking for. Nikolas confessed to a murder. What kind of judge wouldn’t be affected by that? Yeah, well, unfortunately for you, elizabeth baldwin saw esme alive and well. Now, granted, no one knows where she is right now, but according to your timeline, nikolas confessed to killing someone who’s not actually dead. And that raises a whole host of questions. Mainly, why would nikolas confess to a crime he didn’t commit? Well, I guess the obvious answer is that he is trying to protect you, because he believed you had tried to kill esme. Esme and I were struggling over a letter, and she just did a little flip off the parapet. I had nothing to do with it. It was an accident. Yeah, well, when a court finds out that just moments before that struggle, you had found out that esme had had sex with your husband, who’s gonna believe it was an accident, hmm? But if I open pandora’s box, who knows what’s gonna come out? If you want to risk the spotlight being shown on your duplicitous family. Ha. Alright. I’ll bite. What do you want? This is what nikolas offered me as a settlement. Whoa. My nephew is very generous.

[ Laughs ] Not nearly generous enough, in my opinion. Now, if you want an amicable divorce, you’re gonna need to sweeten the pot exponentially. Oh, but I just want to get lost in us. Do you know what I mean? Just pretend that the whole rest of the world has gone away. It’s just us. But if lucy really is in danger, you know. Well, I haven’t chosen this location completely at random. Oh. You mean that we’re living in this drafty old windmill in the middle of winter on purpose? A drafty old windmill not far from amsterdam, which is one of the diamond capitals of the world, where I just so happen to know a certain diamond dealer who’s not all that particular when it comes to choosing his clients. I take it that he wouldn’t be above doing business with victor. My father likes collecting things. I think with the right amount of persuasion… and a great deal of money, I’m sure. He might be able to tell us where lucy is. Oh, my god. That’s amazing. What are we waiting for? No, no, no, we can’t be too eager. That would send up a red flag. We have to appear aloof. I was born aloof. We’ll reach out to the jeweler tomorrow. Tomorrow? What are we gonna do today? We’re gonna keep each other warm. You know, you don’t have to be strong for everyone.

[ Crying ] I, um… honestly don’t even know how I’m feeling right now. It’s just so complicated.

[ Stammers ] I mean, as a doctor, yes, you hate to lose a patient. You feel so much guilt, thinking that there’s more that you could have done. But as trina’s mom? Her boyfriend was murdered. And I-it’s — [Sighs] It’s heartbreaking. And I don’t know rory’s family. I don’t know his parents, but I can’t imagine what they’re going through right now. Honey, he was so young. He had so much more life left to give. I know. It’s just not fair.

[ Crying ] Dante, make sure that earring goes down to forensics in case it turns out to be a lead. There could be dna or fingerprints on it. Will do. Hey. I tried to pray, but I didn’t know what to say. You will. It’s too late. I had the chance to say what rory wanted me to say. What I should have said… when we went to the pc grill, rory told me he loved me. And I didn’t say it back. I couldn’T.

[ Sighs ] Because you weren’t ready.

[ Crying ] That does not make you bad. It just makes you honest. Honesty hurts. I know. [ Sighs ] Believe me, I know. Rory was so gentle… so kind, so brave. He gave his life… why couldn’t I have given him what he wanted? Maybe if I had… maybe he wouldn’t have taken the risk and — and lost his… no, voicemail. Nikolas, it’s me. You need to call me back right away. I’m afraid you’re about to walk into a trap.

[ Indistinct conversations, telephones ringing ] So, tell me, commissioner, how’s your day been? Back at you, dr. Finn. But since we both have a job to do, there’s gonna be a coroner’s report. Anything else you want to tell me?

[ Blows ]

[ Sighs ] Do you think he knows? Rory? Wherever he is… do you think he knows that I won’t forget about him? Well, I know that I’ll never forget oscar. That’s gotta keep him alive somehow. Even if there’s someone else. My mom says that you have to learn how to love, and you might not get it right the first time or the next time or the time after that, but if you keep putting yourself out there, one day, there’s a chance that it will work out. Like algebra.

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, like algebra. Both of my grandsons. Even if it is under tragic circumstances. Were you guys friends with officer cabrera? What’s that look about? Well, he was trina’s boyfriend, so I hung out with him a couple times. Okay. Not so much for me. Yeah. We wanted to support trina. That’s nice. Uh, be right back. Look, I was planning on calling you tonight to let you know that I got released from pentonville early, but then when we heard the news about rory… it’s okay, hon. It’s really okay. I understand. I was actually talking with your dad about your early release just a little bit ago. Then you know that I take after him.

[ Laughs ] Well, if you mean that you’re both stubborn and you act before you think — no, more like everything I touch causes somebody else pain. Isn’t that a little bit melodramatic, even for you, spencer? No. Because all of this with rory and everything that trina is going through, that’s all on me. How is that possible? Because I’m the one who brought esme to town. Think about everything that’s happened. It’s all gone to hell. The sex tape of joss and cam, trina going on trial, and now all these hook attacks. Listen, spencer, you can’t help trina or anybody else if you’re blaming yourself. Don’t you blame me, grandmother? No, I don’T. No, you’re not responsible for the things that esme does. I don’t blame you at all, spencer. I have faith in you. You’re a much better person than you think you are. Trelegy for copd. Birds flyin’ high, you kn ow how I feel. Breeze driftin’ on by… …you know how I feel. You don’t have to take…

[Coughing]

I know this is just a fantasy,but it would be so nice, wouldn’t it? What, life in a windmill?

[ Laughs ] Skating on the canals in the winter time. Yeah, picking tulips in the spring, and without a care in the world. That does sound nice. It does. Even if it’s just a fantasy. Yeah. We can come back, you know. Yeah. But first, we have to find lucy and bring her home. Home. I’ve lived in so many cities in the world, but when robin said that she wanted to take her whole family to california… the concept of home I-is just lost on me now. Wherever I am, when I’m with you… …it feels like home. What have I ever done to make you have faith in me? During trina’s trial, you knew that if you gave her an alibi, that it might end up putting you in prison, but you testified anyway. I believe in that young man. You know, you were going down the wrong road for a little while there, but you have turned it around. I believe in you. Even if you don’t believe in yourself right now. I love you. Ava has reason to believe that esme isn’t guilty for all the hook attacks, which means she couldn’t have done this to rory. All we can do is trust the police to figure it out. Hey, trina, your mother is anxious to take you home. Okay. Hey. At this point, you know everything I know. Then go home, dr. Finn. Go be with your daughter. Your work is done here. Something tells me yours is not. I’m really sorry for your loss. Thank you.

[ Indistinct conversations in distance ] Hey, joss. Hey. How about I take you home? Yeah, I’d like that. Cam: Dante. Yeah. Do you mind if I got a minute with joss before you guys head out? Yeah, of course. C’mon, spence, let’s give ’em some, uh, space, yeah? So before everything went down tonight, you said you had something important to tell me. Oh, yeah, um, but it can wait. I mean, I can’t really think about anything other than what happened to rory right now, so… what was that all about? I do not know. What about you? Did you tell our grandmother that you’re leaving port charles? No. Because things have changed. Whatever I can do, I want to be there for trina. And I’m not going anywhere until esme is found. I guess I needed a little christmas spirit, just like you did. It’s almost perfect. The only thing missing is an angel on top. Elizabeth, um, would you like to help us? I didn’t know you were here. I’m confident we can come to an arrangement that satisfies all parties involved. Well, I’ll need to see the exact offer in writing, of course. Of course. In the meantime, I truly am sorry that your love story had to end this way. No, you’re not. This is just the ending you wanted. To true love.

[ Glass shatters ] Elizabeth, what’s the matter? You look like you saw a ghost. Did esme leave her room tonight? No, of course not. Are you absolutely sure? Yes, I’m sure. Why? Because a cop is dead, stabbed to death by a hook. Nikolas, don’t you see what this means? I gave up finn, you gave up ava. Everything we sacrificed to protect everyone from esme because we thought she was the hook killer, and now we know she can’t be.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

So you and Marlena were fighting about me white smack dab in the middle of Horton Square, and it got all heated and everything. You’re joking right? I wish Milick got so loud and looked around. All the Christmas shoppers were just standing and. I don’t understand. Why were you two fighting about me?

Did you just say you’re quitting your job at basic life effective immediately. Okay, Eric, come on. Come on. You had one rough night. All right. I know you feel bad about missing some photos. I do feel bad, but it’s not the reason why I’m leaving. All right. What is it? What is it? Is it schedule? Just tell me.

I’ll fix. Listen, there’s nothing you can fix, Brady. I just don’t wanna work with Nicole. Why not? I know it’s a lot of hours to spend with your girlfriend, but it’s, she’s not my girlfriend.

Not anymore. Cole and I broke up.

I can’t imagine why Johnny went, he knows his grandmother’s service is about to start. Yes, he does. I saw him outside. He, he said he wouldn’t come in with me yet because he was looking for a woman. What woman? Ava, how is this possible? And they, they said nobody could survive that crash. I guess I’m hard to kill.

So what did you just spend in Salem this whole time? So my dad said he saw you at the crash site. He’d been drinking a lot. He thought it was a hallucination, but it was real. What do you think? Wait, wait, wait, wait. So, so if. Survive the crash. Does that mean my grandma’s alive too? I’m afraid not. I mean, how, look, after we went through the guard real, I jumped out of the car.

Susan did not, Hey, but what’s going on? Why are, why are you here? Why are you dressed and in a disguise? Why would he be chasing down some woman? I do not know. I saw him earlier and. Peter ran off shrinking a little of our conversation to go after her. Well, whatever it was about, I could have waited until after mother serves.

Where are you? I ticking.

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

Okay. According to this update, all of the shipments have been rero. and our subsidiary should receive everything they need by tomorrow night. Great. So Christ is averted, right? . Ask me again once the deliveries have been made. 10 million worth of merchandise. That is a lot of boxes. Mm. Well, I’m optimistic.

Mm. One of the things I love about you That and your ability to navigate a global network of distribution centers. From your keyboard calling. Thank you. No thanks. Necessary. I mean, we needed to handle this crisis and I didn’t want supply chain and issue to keep EJ from his mother’s service. Yeah. Well, I appreciate it and I don’t think I should keep you here any longer, so go enjoy your day.

I will Take care of the tracking myself. I’m no, I don’t mind staying. You sure? Unless there’s somewhere else you’d rather be. No, no. There is nowhere. Uh, not anymore, at least. Um, Brady and I were supposed to be in New York tonight. He got us tickets to one of my all-time favorite operas, and they don’t perform it that often, so it was special.

Hmm. And then got a new dress and new shoes. We were gonna meet my mother for an early dinner. You know, you were really looking forward. Yeah, I was until Brady ducked me for your sister. So you and Nicole broke up. I’m not sure we were ever back together. We were obviously upset the other day when you came to the office and wanted to talk to her alone.

I just assumed you were having some kind of a disagreement. Listen, it’s a lot more to it than that. Things aren’t easy for you too right now, especially the fact that Jade is. Great. Immediately. Look, you, you, you were so confident before that you’d be able to do this man that you could co-parent and be with Nicole at the same time.

What the hell happen? Things changed. I get it. It’s a complicated situation. Nicole’s gonna feel insecure about the fact that you’re having a baby with your ex. Right? Right. But you please can’t give up. You gotta reassure her that Nicole’s alone that you love and Jada’s gonna be the mother of your child.

And Nicole has to get used to the fact that the family is not gonna look the way she thought it was gonna be. Okay. But please, and, and you guys have been through challenges before. You got through so much more than this. All right. All right. Just, just stop. What, here’s some more. Nicole, she talked Jade into heaven.

An abortion,

uh, this woman Johnny ran after. Must have been pretty important. I’m pretty beautiful. Are you glad that my grand nephew is having lusting thoughts in this holy. I was just speculating. Ladies, please, can someone just tell me if Johnny said anything else? Well, all he said to me was he, he called after her and she didn’t turn around, so he never had a chance to talk to her.

Well, this is very disconcerted. As I said, I saw him earlier and, uh, I didn’t see any woman. Well, maybe at a vision of the Virgin Mary. The blessed mother would never appear to a demara. No finish untaken from experience. I can tell you if any one of us were to hallucinate, we’d most likely see someone evil.

I’m here because I wanted to pay my respects to your grandmother, and I’m incognito because I didn’t think I’d exactly be. I’m not sure I’d buy that. Oh, you think your family wants to see me ? Definitely not. What I can’t believe is that you have any interest in honoring my grandmother, considering what you did there, her.

Okay. I am truly sorry that your grandmother ended up as collateral damaging the war between your father and myself, but it is a war. He started when he tried to make me leave town. I’m sorry, but I could not stand for that. And if I recall correctly, you couldn’t either.

Whew. Look, we wait. The longer my sister languish isnt purgatory. Now we need to reunite my sister with our Lord and Savior right away, but Johnny’s still not back, but that is a shame. But the kingdom of heaven win. You’ll have to leave my sister’s arrival to the pearl gates one minute longer.

I’m sorry. Brady ruined a plant for tonight. Yeah, that’s okay. He already ruined our entire future. What’s one opera, . I’m sorry. I’m having a moment. Oh, no. It’s okay. Brady hurt you badly. You’re allowed to be upset, but I was under the impression that you were getting over it. I am. I mean, I know he only ended things with me and move Kristen in because it’s what’s best for Rachel.

At least that’s what he claims. Hmm. You don’t believe it? Well, I believe that Brady wants what’s best for Rachel, but. He also knows that he can co-parent without co-habitating and moving Kristen in so soon. It just makes me think that he’s had feelings for her this entire time. I’m sorry. It seems to be weighing very heavily on you, but I promise by New Year’s you have forgotten all about Brady.

How can you be so sure he does once I whisk you off to Miami? We spend our days on the most beautiful beaches and our nights in the finest restaurants. You won’t have a spare second to think about Brady.

How’s that sound? Pretty damn good.

Man. Hey, I’m sorry I had no idea you were dealing with. It’s all right. Thank you, Steve.

That’s probably not in the business, but I’m gonna put in my 2 cents because I’m your brother and I love you. So here it comes. Wasn’t Nicole wrong in talking to Jada about her pregnancy? Yeah. But from everything you’ve told me, it sounds like Jada made the decision that was best for her. So to try to blame Nicole for somehow talking her into it, I think that would be unfair.

Brady, the decision about the abortion was, it was up to Jada. Let’s not forget. Nicole went behind my back and gave Jada this whole speech about single motherhood and how hard it would be. That doesn’t really matter. Why didn’t, why did you break up? We broke up because of the same reason we got divorced.

We’re different. We’re not good for each other anymore. I mean, we got it all wrapped up in this whole forbidden love and we didn’t follow through with that and we came crash into the earth. And you remembered why it didn’t work out, Heidi? Nonstop. In fact, we actually got in a fight earlier this morning.

She trailed me over to Sloan Peterson’s and she laid into me for sleeping with. I’m sorry, what? Someone offered to take on my case, you know, thing led to another, why are you looking at me like, uh, sorry. I’m just, uh, proof. I’m surprised. Sure. That’s the path you want to go down. It’s not like I can turn back now.

Eric. Eric, look, she’s attractive. I’ll give you that, but her reputation is abysmal. Did you hear him about what she did? To, to, to, to Paul, Lena and, and chan. And indirectly to Abe. I mean, I don’t know if, do you really want to get messed up with a person like this? Oh, that’s real, really classic. Coming from a guy who’s shacking up with Chris and Damara,

I shouldn’t say anything. Oh, come on John. If you and Marlene are fighting about me, I deserve the right to know. Hey, it’s obviously on your mind, or you wouldn’t have brought it up, so why don’t you just tell me,

doc wants to kick you out of the house, and I have a problem with that. Oh, really? Mm-hmm. . Mm. Because you weren’t exactly welcoming me with open arms. I know. I know. I know. When you first moved in here, I had my suspicions, but let’s just say that I’ve kind of softened my stance. How so? This whole idea that you are solely here to suck Brady back in.

I don’t see that, but it’s all the doxys. I mean, she was, I called one night for the night. I came back here. When I came here. You know, this is because she has these worries here and what they’re doing is blinding her to what is really going on For, for example, the other night we came home from dinner, walked in here, Brady had his arm around you.

Okay. Right, right, right. Okay, hold on. But that, he was just comforting me overseas. Exactly. But. Doc, she jumps to this long conclusion. Says there she is. She’s manipulating Brady again. I bet she gave you an ear pull about that, didn’t you? Well, no, she did. She did? Yeah. She warned me that my schemes would never work.

And see that is, that’s so unfair. You were just upset over losing a friend. Right? Yeah. I knew she must to, uh, kick me out of the house only cause she doesn’t understand why Brady broke up with Chloe and moved you in. And now that he has, she thinks that you’re getting too close to Brady and he’s in danger of falling for you all over again.

And what do you think? I think you belong with your daughter.

Yeah. Yeah, you’re right. I was pretty upset when I found out that my dad kicked you out now. I am starting to think he might have done the right thing. What is that supposed to mean? This war between you two? He didn’t start it. You did. When you faked your marriage to my uncle Jake, you said that you understood that and you said it didn’t matter because Jake wanted to marry.

I was wrong. I was wrong. You, you tried to defraud my. You lied to us. You stole from us. I was wrong. I was wrong to defend you, Jonathan. Where? Where is this coming from? I mean, the day that your father threw me out, you were furious with him. You were as angry at him as I was. Yeah. That was before you killed my grandmother.

Shall we begin? Not yet. Ali, please. With all due respect Aunt Mary Marra, we are not starting this ceremony until my son walks through that door. I’ll give you off the sale for me. Stupid. Well, that’s not Johnny. No, I’m Trip Johnson and This’s the summer Bitch. You killed my mom.

I think your computer wants your attention can wait. Not if it’s about the crisis we’re trying to avert. Right. I said when the shipments went out

and, and. Everything is on its way. Ah, there we go. Success. Nice. Now if I hurry, I can make Susan’s memorial in time. I’m sure EJ would appreciate that. I’d be happy to go with you. Oh, you don’t have to do that. No, I want to, uh, I wanna pay my respects to Susan. She was always really kind to me, but if you’d rather go alone No, no, no, of course not.

Besides, I love having you by my. Okay, let’s go then. Let’s go. Yeah. Cute

trip. EJ didn’t kill Ava. Her death was an accident. She drove off the road. Yeah, with EJ in Hopper Pursuit. He hated my mom. You wanted her gone permanently. So you forced her to crash. That’s. My mother was in that car as well. I was trying to catch up to them to rescue her. I wanted Ava to stop. That’s the truth, ej.

Save it. All right. The last person I wanna hear from is the Tramp who slept in my mom’s boyfriend behind her back.

Susan, his death. But I didn’t kill her. No, I thought she didn’t kidnap her. No, that I did. Why? Why would you do that? I wasn’t gonna let EJ damara push me around, turn tail and disappeared just because he told me to. That is not who I am. I needed to hurt him as much as he hurt me. So you used an innocent woman as a weapon?

Look, EJ Damara, he disrespected me. He needed a gun. He wired you 30 million. And then my grandmother showed up at the airfield. You dragged her off at gunpoint. Why You got exactly what you wanted. Why couldn’t you just leave? Why couldn’t he have just paid me the money? He did? No, he didn’t. First he had to kidnap trip.

You think I belong with my daughter? Does that mean you think I belong with Brady? Oh, I didn’t say that. Yeah, but you don’t want my lineage. Kick me out of the house. Let’s, let’s just say the doc and I, we have a, a fundamental difference of opinion about you. Okay. Which is she thinks you’re a really bad person, and I do.

Would you not shacking up with Kristen Joy? You are living with her. We’ve been over this many times. Okay. I moved her into the house cause I thought it was best for Rachel. That’s all. There’s nothing romantic going on with Christopher. We’re not even sleeping in the same room. Okay. That’s exactly how it started last time.

What are you talking about? Kristen was pregnant when she convinced you to move her into the Carus Palace. Okay. Okay. It was a high risk pregnancy. She needed support. It was either move her in or have Dr. Rolf move in with her. Okay? You think I should sign up for that? All right. The point is she manipulated you.

She warmed her way into your house and then into your bed. There is zero chance, Kristin finding her way into my bed. It’s not gonna happen. Brady, you’re so attracted to Aren. I’m attracted to vodka too. All right. But I managed to control myself because I know the road leads to disaster. Okay? It’s one thing when Christian’s on the run and behind bars, you’re living under the same roof.

Get real Brady. It’s only a matter of time before you can’t find it anymore. Am I attracted to her? Maybe. Okay. Maybe always will be, but I’m not gonna go anywhere near her, Eric, not after what she did. What are you talking about, Brady? What does she do?

Hey, do not speak to Nicole like that. If you want to be angry at someone, be angry at me. Oh, I’m angry with you. All right. I’m freaking en raped. I got language. We are the house of God. I am so sorry. Trip. I understand that you are dealing with a great deal of pain. Well, you pay that you. You were to blame for all of this.

You selfish, sadistic bastard. None of this would’ve happened if you hadn’t ordered my mom to leave town an order that left her alive and well, and it should have stayed that way. But Ava escalated the situation by kidnapping my mother, no ej. You escalated it by kidnapping me.

My father kidnapped trip. Oh, I’m guessing he left that part out. It is the God’s honest truth. He hired a couple of goons to take my son hostage in Seattle. Is he all right? Stephen Kayla rescued him, thank God. But if they hadn’t, who, who knows what would’ve happened? So you see, I am not the only one who dragged an innocent person into this.

Your father tried to one up me and here we’re, but you said trip’s. Okay. Yeah. Stop. So your son was free. He still had my grandmother. My father would’ve done anything. So you get her back and said you drove her off a cliff. Why?

It’s. EJ had me kidnapped. I assume it’s because you didn’t wanna pay your own mother’s ransom. It’s not like you couldn’t afford it, you just didn’t wanna part with the money.

I was so bloody certain that I could get my mother back without having to pay the ransom. I mean, how hard could it be to Outsmart Ara Vitali, right? . You see, he, he’s not even deny. God, you are a penny pinching, power hungry piece of scum, and you cheated out in your own mother. You bullied mine and now they’re both dead.

That is enough now, won’t you stand there arguing. My sister soul hangs in the village. Now I will not listen to another word. Father,

you don’t think I’m a bad. You know, and I really don’t thank doctors either. It’s just that when it comes to you and Brady, I think her view is a little old, I don’t know, colored by our romantic best, or maybe she thinks that your view of me is colored by a romantic past, figuring out I might be. A little biased, but then again, I remember who you were when I first met you, Kristin Blake, for crying out loud, you were a social worker,

Can you believe it? Yeah, I can. I was there. I saw you in action. You, you remember that summer we did the little league team with the kids . I know. And you came and helped out and Oh my gosh. Wow. I might have helped them between the lines. You were so great. No, you were. I had no idea. But you were the one who made a difference in their lives.

You made a difference on a lot of people’s lives. And see, that’s not the work of a bad person. That was a long time, John.

Yeah, true.

I thought, you know, it’s like I said, When you first moved in here, I didn’t know what your motives were. The longer that you’ve been here, my, my concerns have started to fade cause I see it. I see her, the, the other Kristen, the, the good. Kristen. Kristin, I fell in love with.

What did Kristen do?

Come on step. Let’s just go, I don’t know. Not yet. Brady. What happened with. Hey man, can I get those tickets? What? And obviously you’re not using them. I don’t even know what you’re talking about, man. The tickets to the opera that you were supposed to take Chloe to in New York tonight. The opera. Yeah, that was, that was, that was tonight.

Yeah. Seeing as Chloe and I aren’t gonna be able to make it, I was thinking we could exchange them for another performance, perhaps Valentine’s Day. Okay. Hey, my brother and I in the middle, not only do you bail on. But you don’t even remember that you have plans with her. You are one classy. S o p. Hey, do you have any idea how much this night meant to her?

Any idea? And you add insult to injury by not even remembering that you have plans. Is that how much you care about her? Huh? You care about her more than you know, so much so that you toss her aside from my sister Steph. And that isn’t what happened. Man. Whatever you say, pal. Hey, at least now she’s with someone who truly cares about her, who treats her with the respect she deserves and doesn’t make her feel worthless and disposable.

Okay, come on, we’re going now. No, no, no. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Unlike Brady, I’m gonna make sure that you make it to. It’s very noble. Hey, you were denier, you got cloud, right? Why don’t you just, uh, you know, fly the whole company in privately so you can have your own private show. That’s a great idea, Brady.

You know, you should be part of a think tank or something. But New York, it’s so magical this time of year and romantic, isn’t it? Yeah, man, you really blew it. You had the. Wonderful woman on the planet, and you threw her aside like she’s garbage. At least now she’s with a real man.

Brady, what the hell is wrong with you? He’s outta control. That’s what’s wrong with him. Just like his brother. Leave him out. Him. Oh, but you guys have so much in common. You’re both rageaholic jerks who think nothing of assaulting people. Although I must say the priest seems to have calmed down a little bit since he’s stint in jail.

You know, maybe I should call the cops. They can teach you the same lesson. Stephanie, do you really think that’s necessary? No. Hey, Go for it.

Holy. The cops, Stephen.

Now Kristin, I knew back then now she, uh, she had this real calling and I’m not talking about just serving other people, but just serving God. Not very well, I’m afraid. Don’t come. No, no, no, no. Don’t do that. Don’t sell yourself short there. You were always looking out for other people. Feel you looked out for dog.

When she was possessed, you remember that you were one of the first people who realized there was some problem here and you tried to warn everybody else. You remember that? Yeah. It was a very scary time. Oh, yo. I was in denial. I mean, you were the one that got me to see the truth and the two of us, we helped her.

And it’s a running, isn’t it? What’s that? The doc is so convinced that you have all these evil intentions, but you are the one who saved her from the devil, and she’s still so suspicious of you now, even though you proved how much you cared about her, you were a real friend who, Kristen, and honestly, I, I just, I can’t understand why she can’t find it in her heart to.

Be a friend to you. Now,

what happened on the road that night? Ava? Did you lose control of the car? Didn’t you crash it on purpose? Is that how you were gonna hurt my father by killing my grandmother?

Hey, you are John Roman. We were all wondering where you were. Sorry. Just ran into an old friend. Oh, isn’t it? Just wouldn’t wanna let a little thing like the fate of your grandmother soul together the way if you two catch up. I, I, I am so sorry. Please tell me I didn’t miss the service. It. Elvis refused to start without you and then everything got toughy turvy.

When this young man came charging in there, yelling at him, shouting, shouting so loud that I just couldn’t take it. Shouting about what? How your father kidnapped him.

Son, I’m sorry you’re upset. No, I am not Yourself, and keep your damn hands off of me. All right. We’ve tolerated this interruption long enough. Tolerated. Oh, I’m sorry. EJ is me wanting an explanation for my mom’s murder. An annoyance to you. My be to suit to address Mr. Johnson. No, no, no, no. Don’t, don’t try to palm me off on Dr.

Evans or, or pacify me with your fake sympathy. We’re gonna have this out right here, right now. We are going to pay respects to my mother, and you are going to get the hell out of here.

I’m not going anywhere.

Kristen, you know, I love Jacque iHeart, but this total lack of understanding and forgiveness, it’s really frustrating for me. No, I mean, that was a point she was willing to try. Yeah, I remember that. I think it was, it was Mother’s Day. You were pregnant with Rachel. Yeah, and she sat right here and she said, this is a new beginning for all of us.

Well, Clearly it wasn’t because she can’t get past this idea that you’re rotten to the corn. I’m sorry about that. Well, you know, maybe she still can’t see past my mistakes. What she needs to see is how much you love your daughter more than anything, John. Well, that’s why Broody moved you in here. He knows how much you love Rachel.

She needs you in your life. You need to be with her so she can see what Brady and I already see, and that’s, you’re not only a good mother, but you’re a really good person.

No, I’m not, John. I’m not a good person.

Go. Call the cops. Stop. And please, let’s just get outta here.

My brother declined to press charges against Eric. Guess I could do the same for Poor Brady here besides. Shall sentence is temporary compared to the time you’re gonna spend thinking about what a fool you were to let her go. That’s forever

you. Okay? Yeah. You’re just seeing her with him makes me look crazy, Eric. I get it. I know you wanna put your daughter first. But if you love her so much, why don’t you give Chloe up?

Sorry about that. No, Brady’s the one who should be, sorry. Oh, I shouldn’t have provoked him like that, but I,

I hate the way he treated you, but I will make sure you make it to the opera. Best seats in the house. I can’t wait. How’s the bleeding? It looks like it’s stopped, but you have a little bit of blood on your shirt.

Damn, it can’t go to the memorial like that. Well, it’s probably over by now anyway.

She’s having a reception back at the house. You ready to join? I’d love to this young man, he, he claimed that EJ kidnapped him more like screaming at the top of his lungs was a trip. Trip Johnson, I believe that’s what he said his name was. You All right, I’ve gotta get in there.

I would very much like to hear what you’re feeling, but this is not the time or the place. I know you mean. Well, Dr. Evans, but I’m standing right where I am. This is not No, no, no. Why should I let this monster greet for his mother when he took my mother from me, right. That’s it. No, I said I’m not leaving

you to come with me. Right. Peter, huh?

What do you mean you’re not a good person? I. It’s okay being judgemental here. What’d you do?

Hey, you said Kristen did something. What was it, Eric, please just forget it. I can’t because she’s living in my mother’s house. Eric, forget it. She’s sure seems like it. Why is she living with Mom and John? And don’t tell me it’s what’s best for Rachel. You both know. That’s bull. Answer me. Brady, why would you move this cycle into foster parents home?

I didn’t have a choice. What? What do you mean? She blackmailed me? She forced me to move her in and break up with Chloe.

Are these peanut butter, bacon and banana sandwiches? They are Susan’s favorite, have one? Uh, I think I’ll wait till everyone gets here. Yeah. All right. I wonder what’s keeping them. They should have been back by now. Well, it’s an emotional event. People need time. I know, but EJ was pretty adamant on keeping it short.

He was the only one scheduled to speak. Maybe they had an unexpected guest. My God, mom. Hey, can’t you? Okay. I’m glad to see you too, baby. But we gotta get outta here. No, we’re not going anywhere. Nicole called the police death. The police, I’m assuming this is a mystery woman you were searching for earlier.

She showed up under disguise, returning to admire her handy work. No gas. But don’t worry, Ava’s gonna pay you for what you did to your grandma. Hey, get your hand off. Hey, don’t worry, I can handle EJ trip. Just please go. No, I’m not gonna leave you here. Yeah, you have to. Wow. What’s going on? There is a, What you talking about?

My God. Mom, we got, okay. I’m glad to see you too, baby, but we gotta get outta here going anywhere. Nicole called the police anywhere. Yeah, the police, I’m assuming this is a mystery woman you were searching for earlier. Yeah. She showed up in a disguise returning to admire her handy work. No doubt. But don’t worry’s gonna pay you for what she did to your grandmother.

Hey, get your hand off. Hey, don’t worry, I can handle EJ Tripp. Just please go. No, I’m not gonna leave. Yes, you have to. Why? What’s going on? There is a bomb. What mom? Whatcha are you talking about? Talking about right here.

What was that? I don’t know. Thunder, maybe. Hey, well let’s get back to the bombing you just dropped. What do you mean Kristen blackmailed you into breaking up the. What she holding over your head? If you keep insisting that you are not a good person? I don’t think I have to tell an ex none. That confession is good for the soul.

Yeah, well it’s too bad there’s not a priest around. No. Yes. You’re just gonna have to settle for the next best thing and it’s an old friend. So what’s weighing so heavily on your conscience?

You can talk to me. Kristen, I’m here for you.

Hey buddy. Hey, how about I take care of the next one? Hello. What’s this? By your favorite commission, beer Day? Well, that would suggest that you’re my favorite commission. And I guess you are, since you’re the one and only damn, talk about kicking a guy when he is down. Sorry about that. I’m more serious enough.

Any progress on building that case against CJ Damara for kidnapping my son? Well, nothing yet. Thank our trip. Safe. But he could have easily been killed.

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

You know, me, John, I, I spent most of my life on the naughty list. But everything I’ve done that, that’s been wrong. I’ve always felt I was doing it for the right reasons. I don’t doubt that.

Cause Kristen, you have got as big a heart as anyone I know. And let me tell you something. Sometimes when, when we hadn’t kind. Spirit and passion that you do. When we, when we so fiercely go after something we, we really want, we can inadvertently end up hurting people we really love. I know this is the last thing you’ve wanted to do.

Yeah. That is so true. That is so true. What I want, what, what I really want most is I want a loving family. I wanna be a good. I wanna be a devoted wife. Oh. But what I want most, what I want most of all is, uh, I want Rachel to know.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Relaxing music ]

Steffy: Babe, how are you doing with all of this?

Finn: I’m– I’m all right.

Steffy: Mm-hm.

Finn: It’s a lot to process, knowing that sheila’s alive, but I’m going to do whatever it takes to protect the people I love.

Steffy: I know.

Finn: Sheila won’t be free much longer. She made a big mistake. She should’ve stayed undercover or left town immediately after escaping prison.

Hope: Oh, sorry to interrupt. Um. Did you ever hear what happened with our parents or?

Steffy: No. I’m guessing you haven’t either?

Hope: Nothing.

Steffy: I’m dying to know what’s going on.

Hope: I feel the same.

Taylor: I can’t believe we did this.

Brooke: I can’t believe we did it. Oh, and the look on ridge’s face? Oh, gosh. He couldn’t believe we did it either.

Taylor: Wow.

[ Brooke sighing ] Yeah.

Brooke: Are you sorry?

Taylor: I am.

Brooke: You are?

Taylor: That we didn’t do this 30 years ago.

[ Both laughing ]

Brooke: And what better way to celebrate than with this cake.

Taylor: Oh, my gosh. Here, let me help you.

Brooke: This gorgeous cake.

Taylor: Look at it. It’s so pretty. After all these years, we finally did it.

Brooke: We did.

Taylor: Mm-hm.

Brooke: We kissed ridge goodbye. And that’s a kiss we can agree on.

Taylor: Yes.

Bill: Why’re you looking at me like that?

Liam: Nothing. Uh, it’s just a little weird to see you primping. Is that a diffuser?

Bill: Yeah, sure is. Smells nice, right? I’m doing this for katie, liam, all right? She loves this stuff. I want her to feel totally comfortable when she comes over and ideally, she’s gonna stay for the rest of her life.

Liam: Are you expecting katie?

Bill: She agreed to come by for a talk. And I’m hopeful that this is finally the night that I convince my katie to come home.

[ Carter groaning ]

Carter: Today turned out to be a longer day than I expected.

[ Carter and katie laughing ] But I’m not complaining. I got to spend more time with you.

Katie: I was just thinking the same thing.

Carter: Let’s keep it going. Have dinner with me.

Katie: I would love to, but bill called and I agreed to see him.

Liam: Uh, I’m kinda surprised katie agreed to come over.

Bill: Yeah, well, that’s why I’m encouraged. I mean, she could’ve just blow me off, but instead she agreed to come. I’m taking that as a positive sign.

Liam: Yeah. I don’t know.

Bill: I do. After tonight, things are gonna be very different for katie and me.

Carter: So, you’re going to see bill.

Katie: Yeah.

Carter: I have to admit that I’m quite surprised, katie. You know what he wants. He’s gonna pressure you to take him back. Why put yourself through that again?

Katie: He just doesn’t seem like himself. I’m worried about him.

Steffy: Charlie said that my dad was with both of our moms. That has to mean that he’s made a decision.

Hope: Okay, but where is everybody and why haven’t we heard from anyone?

Steffy: I don’t know. This is so weird.

Charlie: Hi. Um, sorry to interrupt. I just wanted everybody to know that there is zero chance of sheila carter breaching this building. Why? Because I have my top security on this and I have eyes in the back of my head. See?

Steffy: Ch– charlie, what exactly happened?

Hope: Yeah, did ridge leave here with my mom?

Steffy: Or mine?

Brooke: Oh, this is sparkling water for you, my darling.

Taylor: Ooh, the hard stuff.

Brooke: Did you ever imagine in a million years that you and I could get to this moment at the same time?

Taylor: Never in a million years. I can’t believe this. I mean, after– after all this time, and– and ridge just waffling back between me and you and– it just became a way of life.

Brooke: I know. It’s horrible. It went on so long that we came to accept it. You and I, we took our power back and it feels incredible.

[ Both laughing ]

Taylor: Yes, it does. It is incredible. Cheers.

Brooke: Cheers.

Taylor: You know, I never wanted to be your enemy, brooke.

[ Taylor laughing ] I’m steve.

Steffy: Well, tell us charlie. Did my father leave with my mother?

Hope: Or mine?

Charlie: Y– you know I– I– I may have exaggerated just a little bit about having eyes in the back of my head. I really don’T. So, I don’t know which of the lovely ladies ridge left with.

Steffy: Why not?

Charlie: Because I didn’t see brooke or taylor or ridge leave the building. But, I do have camera footage, if you’d like to see it.

Hope: No, I– I don’t really think that’s necessary, right?

Steffy: Maybe we should text them?

Hope: Yes.

Steffy: Good idea. Let’s do that.

Hope: Yup.

Steffy: All right.

Hope: My mom is at home.

Finn: What’s going on?

Steffy: Whoa, this is so weird.

Finn: What?

Hope: What?

Steffy: My mom’s at brooke’s too.

Hope: This can’t be good.

Steffy: No.

Hope: We should get over there.

Steffy: We should go.

Hope: Yeah.

Steffy: Let’s go. Together?

Hope: Now.

Steffy: Yup. Thanks, charlie.

Charlie: Glad I could help.

Steffy: Yeah.

Carter: So, what’s got you so worried about bill all of a sudden?

Katie: He just doesn’t sound like himself.

Carter: And it’s on you to fix him?

Katie: No, no. I– I’ve been through every bill mood there is, you know. The highs, the lows, the in-betweens. I just– I’ve just never heard him sound so… vulnerable.

Bill: I’m telling you, liam. Katie and I are on the brink of a new beginning. I’m not saying I don’t have a lot of damage control ahead of me, but I’m willing to do whatever it takes and I think katie realizes that. I just want her to give me another chance.

Taylor: You know, I never wanted to be your life long enemy, brooke. ‘Cause you know why? You’re a bad ass. You.

Brooke: Me?

Taylor: Yes, you. You are. You’re– you’re so creative. You left a mark on the fashion industry, which is huge, and you’re really smart. And the hottest chemist I have ever seen.

Brooke: Oh.

Taylor: You know the best part though? You love your family. You’re a good mom. I could see how ridge was swept away.

Brooke: Well, don’t underestimate yourself, taylor. I have respect for you too. What you’ve chosen to do with your life. How you get up every single morning determined to help people who are struggling. You are a healer and that is incredible.

Taylor: You know, this is the nicest we have ever been to each other.

Brooke: We haven’t had many chances to be nice.

Taylor: Because we’ve been fighting over a stupid man.

Brooke: I mean why? We’re parents. We’re grandparents.

Taylor: Oh, god. How did we do this? How did we let this go on for so long?

Brooke: This is our opportunity to show the world that we can be strong and capable on our own.

Taylor: And that women should never bash each other, especially for a man. We should lift each other up.

Brooke: Exactly.

Brooke and taylor: Yes.

[ Brooke sighing ]

Brooke: Let’s eat cake.

Taylor: Yes! Let’s eat cake.

Brooke: Let’s do it!

Taylor: Can we use your mail opener to cut it?

Brooke: Oh, sure. Of course.

Taylor: You know what? I– I– I want us to make a vow to each other, right here, right now, okay? We will never fight over ridge again.

Brooke: Vow taken.

[ Taylor laughing ]

Taylor: I mean, look, I know that we both played our parts in all of this, but god, the way that ridge just like ate up the attention from both of us for so long.

Brooke: I know! And that was wrong, what he did. He left me, he went to you, he didn’t tell me why, he didn’t tell you why.

Taylor: No. No, and then he asked me to marry him and he basically left me at the altar again! Hm.

Brooke: I’m sorry you had to go through that.

Taylor: Yeah. And I’m sorry that you had to go to through everything you went through too and… you know what I have to say about it all?

Brooke: What?

Taylor: Let’s eat cake.

[ Both laughing ]

Brooke: Yes! Let’s do it!

Taylor: Okay, this looks really good. Okay. All right. You just– you took the big piece.

Hope: Mom, no, no! Put it down.

Steffy: Put the cake down. Not this again.

Brooke: No, no.

Taylor: It’s not–

Brooke: We are celebrating.

Taylor: It’s not what it looks like. Yes, we are.

Hope: Celebrating?

Steffy: The two of you?

Taylor: Mm-hm.

Hope: I– I– I don’t understand.

Steffy: Wait. Weren’t you guys with dad? What happened?

Hope: Did he make his choice?

Brooke: He didn’t choose.

Brooke and taylor: We did.

Taylor: Yes.

Brooke and taylor: Cheers.

Taylor: This is so good. This cough.

[Sfx: Coughs]

Liam: I do miss the old spencer family gatherings. You and katie, me and wyatt, will.

Bill: Yeah. Had some good times here, didn’t we? And the good news is they’re not over, just on pause. After tonight, we’re gonna put those spencer family gatherings right back on the calendar.

Liam: Yeah, yeah, yeah and I– and I know that’s what you want. It’s just, uh, general reminder, katie’s gotta want it too.

Bill: She will. And to that end, not to rush you out of here.

Liam: Right, okay, yeah. Yeah. Hey, dad.

Bill: Yeah.

Liam: Good luck.

Bill: Thanks, liam.

Liam: Really wish I could walk out of here without worrying about you.

Bill: There’s nothing to worry about.

Liam: Yeah, well that sword necklace says otherwise.

Bill: That’s just for protection, which I won’t need once my katie comes back to me.

Carter: Is there any chance bill might be playing on your sympathy?

Katie: Oh, there’s always that chance, but then again, maybe he’s not and something bad is happening or it’s about to happen.

Carter: You and bill aren’t together anymore. It’s not your job to monitor his emotional well-being.

Katie: You’re right. You’re absolutely right, but he is will’s father and that means that whatever he does affects will and I have to pay attention to that.

Carter: You’re right, you’re right.

Katie: I have to go. But I am going to take you up on that dinner another time.

Carter: Count on it.

Hope: What? What is happening? What is happening?

Steffy: I don’t know. Clearly, we missed something.

Brooke: It’s simple, really.

Taylor: Yeah, it really is. We– we– we have been– should’ve done this a long time ago.

Brooke: We had to be ready.

Taylor: And strong enough.

Hope: For what exactly?

Brooke: Reclaiming our lives.

Taylor: Choosing ourselves.

Brooke: Controlling our destiny.

Taylor: Oh, you said the “d” word.

Brooke: Oh, I didn’t say the “d” word.

Taylor: You did. You just said– don’t say it anymore.

Steffy: What are you– what are you saying? I’m so confused right now.

Taylor: Um, just that the competition is over. Yeah.

Brooke: Look, it comes down to this. If ridge is in our lives, that’s great, but if he’s not, that’s fine too. We don’t need ridge to be happy.

Taylor: No, no. We don’T. We don’t need ridge to be happy. We don’T. We don’t need ridge to be happy.

Brooke: I know!

Taylor: Oh, my god. Why didn’t we do this before? We didn’t we figure this out?

Brooke: It’s so true. It’s so true.

Bill: Wow. You look stunning.

Katie: Well, you’ve seen this dress a million times, but thank you.

Bill: It’s not about that. It’s about what’s in it. Thank you for coming, katie.

Katie: Honestly, I’M… I’m concerned about you.

Bill: Well, hey. I’ll take what I can get.

Katie: Seriously, bill. You– you don’t seem like yourself.

Bill: That’s because I’m not. I’m never myself when we’re apart. Don’t do that, katie. Please don’t– don’t guard against me.

Katie: We’ve– we’ve been over this over and over again.

Bill: I know, I know. I– I– I know that, but you– see, you have to understand that I’ve been… I’ve been learning something new everyday about myself, about my feelings for you. I hurt you. I know that. And I regret it so very, very much. All you ever did was love me and support me and I repaid that, fool that I am, by hurting you in the worst possible way.

Katie: She’s my sister, bill.

Bill: Yes, I– I– I know that. I just– I just allow myself to get obsessed with brooke.

Katie: You said she was the great love of your life.

Bill: That’s not true. I didn’t mean that. I wish I could take those words back. You and I share a son and I love you and will more than words could possibly express and I miss us. I miss our beautiful family. I miss the life that we should be sharing.

Katie: The life we would be sharing if you hadn’t thrown it away. And I will never understand why. I will never understand why– how you could be so reckless with everything that we built together.

Bill: Maybe I didn’t feel like I deserved it. Maybe I– I– I don’t deserve– I– I– don’t know, katie. I get… I get in this bad, uh, head space and, uh, I make– I make poor decisions. I make poor decisions personally and professionally. I’m begging you, please. I just need to hear from you that there’s a chance. A chance for your forgiveness. A chance to reunite our family, just a chance to rebuild your faith and trust in me because I swear, I swear I will never let you down again. Just tell me that you will come back to me.

Steffy: Okay, so that’s it. Dad’s not coming back to you?

Hope: Or to you?

Taylor: Look, I know how much you wanted your father and me back together.

Steffy: I wanted it because I thought you wanted it. I mean, your happiness is my motivation.

Hope: I– I just wanted the same happiness for you too.

Brooke: Well, here’s the thing. Taylor and I finally realized that true happiness comes from within. We are all in charge of our own inner peace.

Taylor: Yes.

Steffy: Oh, my gosh. This is… this is amazing.

Hope: I never thought I would see this day. I mean, uh–

Steffy and hope: Mom, I’m so proud of you.

Taylor: Yay.

Brooke: Oh, sweetie.

Steffy: Now, serious moment. Um, that celebratory cake over there?

Hope: Yeah, I think we might want a piece of that.

Steffy: Yeah.

Brooke: Before we dig into it, can you please get some plates and forks from the kitchen?

Hope: Yes.

Steffy: I can do that. Yeah.

Taylor: Thanks. Oh, my gosh. Did you see that? Did you see how happy they are? And how proud they are? This feels so good.

Brooke: They are. It does, it feels so good.

[ Brooke sighing ]

Brooke: And I have you to thank for it, my friend. My friend, taylor.

Taylor: My friend, brooke.

[ Both laughing ]

Taylor: Oh, my god.

Brooke: It’s really incredible.

Taylor: It really is.

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

Brady is at home on the phone with his son Tate. Kristen appears with mistletoe. Brady hangs up and questions what she is doing. Kristen points out that they are under a mistletoe and she’s sure he remembers what that means.

Sloan answers the door to see Nicole and questions what she’s doing there as Nicole sees Sloan and Eric in towels. Nicole tells Eric that she could ask him the same thing.

EJ tells Johnny that Susan was one of a kind and loved him very much. Johnny says it feels like just yesterday that Susan was there with them, enjoying Halloween and now it’s almost Christmas and she’s gone. EJ says that’s courtesy of Ava Vitali.

Ava and her vision of Charlie look over her bomb in the DiMera Crypt. Ava states that it has enough power to wipe out half the church. Ava declares that when EJ shows up at Susan’s funeral, he’s going to be the one resting in pieces.

Brady questions Kristen constructing a paper mistletoe just to hold it over his head. Kristen clarifies that Rachel made it in art class and she hoped that they could hang it together. Brady complains about Kristen encouraging Rachel’s fantasies about them getting together. Kristen claims that she’s encouraging Rachel’s creativity. Brady suggests an art project on the plant that saved Marlena’s life since that’s the only reason Kristen is staying here. Kristen argues that he doesn’t have to continue to remind her. Kristen tells Brady that today is Susan’s memorial so she wants to be there for EJ. Brady can’t believe her as he’s pretty sure that EJ doesn’t want Kristen anywhere near the church. Kristen tells him not to worry because she has a plan. Kristen then exits. Brady wonders aloud what could possibly go wrong.

EJ tells Johnny that Ava took so much from them. Johnny complains that he trusted her and cared for her but he had no idea how damaged she was, that she was capable of kidnapping Susan and driving off the road. EJ admits that even he didn’t think Ava would go that far, but he saw it with his own eyes. Johnny says it must have been horrible for him. EJ responds that he thought it would be the last time he saw either one of them, until he saw Ava at Thanksgiving.

Ava’s vision of Charlie asks if she’s having second thoughts about blowing EJ up. Ava responds that she was just thinking of how great it would be if all of her other enemies could get what’s coming to them too, starting with Nicole.

Eric questions how Nicole found him. Nicole explains that when Roman told her that he didn’t come home last night, she had a pretty good idea of where he might be. Sloan asks if she just started knocking on random doors. Nicole says she used to be a reporter, so it took about ten seconds to track down her address. Sloan calls her a stalker. Nicole walks in despite Sloan pointing out that she didn’t invite her. Nicole questions Eric sleeping with Sloan. Eric confirms that he is and asks what’s it to her.

Marlena and John meet in the town square as they finish Christmas shopping. Marlena tells him about getting Johnny a camera drone and some troll dolls for Holly but she doesn’t know if they will see Holly much over Christmas because of Nicole and Eric. John says they’ll just have to drop that off at Nicole’s and asks if she had any luck finding something for Rachel. Marlena confirms that she did and got her a junior marine biologist kit which excites John. Marlena points out that they both know they can’t give Rachel what she really wants for Christmas and that’s her parents being back together.

Sister Mary Moira appears at John and Marlena’s and complains about the Marlena doll that Susan had given her being evil. Brady remembers Kristen dressing up as Susan and says nice try Kristen.

Nicole calls Eric unbelievable. Sloan argues that Nicole is the one skulking around town, trying to catch Eric with other women. Nicole tells her to stay out of it but Sloan points out that she’s standing in the middle of her apartment, so she’s in it. Eric asks Sloan to give them a minute and promises it won’t take long. Sloan then goes to get dressed. Nicole asks what is wrong with Eric. Eric says nothing. Nicole says five minutes ago, they were planning their future together and now he’s getting in drunken bar fights and hooking up with trashy lawyers. Eric asks how dare she judge him for sleeping with Sloan when she’s hooking up with EJ.

Johnny questions EJ saying he saw Ava on Thanksgiving and asks how that’s possible. EJ admits he had a lot to drink and ended up on the crash site, where Ava was taunting and tormenting him. Johnny questions it being real. EJ explains that Tony and Chad showed up and Ava disappeared, so it wasn’t real and was likely a toxic combination of too much booze and even more guilt. EJ calls it ironic that in death, Ava made him feel as crazy as she was. Johnny is sorry he’s going through this. EJ thanks him for being here with him. Johnny hopes that laying Susan to rest will bring him some kind of peace as they hug. Johnny then exits the room.

Ava tells her vision of Charlie that Nicole destroyed her relationship with Rafe and then just moved on like nothing happened while making a pit stop with Eric Brady in between. Charlie remarks that she moves fast and asks if she and EJ are a couple now. Ava says that Nicole is living in his house so she asks what he thinks. Charlie agrees that she needs to get her comeuppance. Ava says the good news is that Nicole will most likely be accompanying EJ to the funeral which means she can kill two birds with one bomb.

John tells Marlena that this has to be really confusing for Rachel since her parents are living in the same house but they’re not together. Marlena says they know Brady moved Kristen in under duress but she just wonders why. John says he knows that Rachel was doing a lot better when Kristen was gone as they all were and that’s why they have to get Kristen out of their house and out of Brady’s life for good. Marlena then gets an idea.

Sister Mary Moira tells Brady that she came to see Marlena ahead of Susan’s funeral. Brady continues believing she is Kristen dressed as Sister Mary Moira and says this is never going to work. She insists that she is actually Sister Mary Moira. Brady questions her and asks if Sister Mary Moira would be okay with this as he raises the mistletoe and then kisses her.

Kristen goes to the DiMera Mansion and asks EJ for a drink which he gives to her. EJ says she can thank him by leaving. EJ questions what the hell she’s doing here. Kristen asks where else she would be to say goodbye to Susan. Kristen wants to be there for him at the funeral but EJ says over his dead body.

Nicole tells Eric that she and EJ are not sleeping with each other. Nicole says EJ just offered her and Holly a place to stay and it’s just temporary. Eric calls that so generous of him. Eric suggests Nicole should be spending her time looking for apartments instead of keeping track of him. Nicole says she’s worried about him. Eric asks if she was that worried when she encouraged Jada to have an abortion. Nicole asks if that’s why he’s flushing his life down the drain and argues that Jada made a choice, not her. Eric responds that he’s making choices too. Nicole calls them bad choices. Eric says one minute he thought they were going to be together and then they weren’t just like how he was about to be a father and then he wasn’t. Nicole argues that it’s been rough for everyone and that Eric drowning in self pity is not him. Eric asks who the hell he is then. Nicole calls him a good person who is loved and respected while Eric feels he was walked all over which Nicole disagrees with. Eric declares that he realized now while people like Nicole and Sami enjoy being so selfish and sabotaging because they do what they want without worrying about any consequences. Eric understands there’s a bit of rush to it and asks who wants to be the good twin when there’s so much fun being the bad twin.

Ava, in disguise, plants the bomb underneath the memorial table at the church. Ava looks at a framed photo of Johnny and Susan. Ava’s vision of Charlie asks if she’s reminiscing over her adventures in near cradle robbing. Ava states that Johnny was kind to her when EJ was declaring war and Gabi was trying to manipulate her. Ava says that Johnny was on her side and wonders if things would’ve been different if she just let him in to her life. Charlie remarks that Ava may have been Johnny’s cougar fantasy at one point, but now she’s just the crazy lady who killed his grandmother. Ava tells him to go away. Charlie argues that she doesn’t really want that. Ava says she appreciates him helping with her plan but she can do this on her own, so she doesn’t need him here. Charlie reminds her that he’s always with her as her vision of him then disappears. Ava puts the photo down as Johnny then arrives and calls out to her, asking if she’s a friend of Susan’s. Johnny says they aren’t quite ready yet and suggests she wait outside.

Sister Mary Moira is shocked by Brady kissing her. Brady then realizes his mistake and that she really is Sister Mary Moira. She questions what is wrong with him. Brady apologizes and calls it a total mistake. She then pulls out a ruler and starts smacking Brady with it.

Kristen acknowledges that EJ has hated her ever since she sided with Gabi in the DiMera vote. EJ responds that this has nothing to do with business. Kristen questions why he’s being so hostile then. EJ brings up how Kristen treated Susan when she was alive. Kristen admits that they didn’t always get along. EJ argues that Kristen tried to take him away from Susan when he was a baby. Kristen thought they got past that. EJ says she may have but Susan never did and was forever traumatized by what Kristen and Stefano did. EJ tells Kristen that her whole all about family act is not going to work this time because she doesn’t give a damn about him or Susan. EJ adds that Kristen is the last person that Susan would want at her funeral. EJ tells Kristen to get the hell out and let him grieve in peace. Kristen then turns and exits the mansion.

Sloan comes back and comments on Nicole still being there. Eric says that she was just leaving. Nicole tells Eric to enjoy his afternoon delight and says not to say she didn’t warn him as she then exits. Sloan asks if Eric is sure he doesn’t want to go after Nicole and if he’s okay. Eric assures that he’s good and there’s nothing to worry about. Sloan says she’s glad to hear that. Sloan notes that Nicole did make one solid point, that they still have time for love in the afternoon before she has to go to work. Eric likes the way she’s thinking, so they begin kissing.

John questions Marlena wanting him to get close to Kristen again, reminding her that he tried once before and it didn’t work out so well. Marlena clarifies that she doesn’t want him to seduce Kristen, but to be her friend and play on their long history while convincing her that she can trust him. John questions if Kristen would buy in to that. Marlena points out that her family is forsaken and her friend is in prison, so she feels Kristen would be looking for someone to confide in now. John admits it could work and once Kristen is vulnerable enough, he should be able to get her to tell him what she’s holding over Brady’s head. John asks where they start. Marlena thinks she has a way to persuade Kristen to let down her guard. John says the more he thinks about it, the more he likes her plan. John decides if they’re going to get Kristen out of their house, they have to start right now. Marlena asks him what about Susan’s memorial. John tells her to pay respects for both of them because Susan of all people would understand they are trying to save Brady and Rachel from Kristen DiMera. John then walks away.

Kristen returns home to Brady, who is icing his wrist. Kristen comments that he looks like he had a worse day than she did. Brady says she can bet on that. Brady thought she was going to the funeral. Kristen responds that EJ was not interested in her comfort. Brady says he tried to warn her of that. Kristen says so much for family and asks what happened to his hand. Brady explains that he got a visit from Sister Mary Moira, who let herself in, and when he saw her, he jumped to the wrong conclusion that it was Kristen in disguise because it was something she would do. Brady says by the time she convinced him it was really her, it was too late. Kristen questions what he did. Brady admits that he tried to call her bluff by using the mistletoe and kissing her. Kristen laughs at Brady making out with a nun while Brady says it’s not funny. Kristen asks if she freaked out. Brady feels he freaked out as they both were. Kristen continues laughing about it and then asks what would’ve happened next if it was her that he kissed.

Nicole goes home to the DiMera Mansion and pours a drink. EJ asks if everything is alright. Nicole informs him that she just found Eric in Sloan’s apartment and they were wearing only towels. EJ asks if they are together now. Nicole says they are at least for one night. EJ jokes that he didn’t know Eric had it in him to have a one night stand. EJ feels this proves how beneath her Eric truly is. Nicole acknowledges that Eric is troubled and says she shouldn’t be dumping this on EJ, especially today. EJ says it’s fine as he’d much rather be sharing a drink with her than his last visitor. Nicole asks who it was. EJ informs her that Kristen showed up, wanting to accompany him to Susan’s funeral. Nicole calls that nice of her. EJ reminds her that Kristen spent decades tormenting Susan. Nicole understands why he wouldn’t want Kristen to come to the service. EJ points out that Kristen was the only one of his siblings who were available. Nicole questions his brothers not coming. EJ explains that Tony and Anna are visiting Carrie and her family for the holidays, Stefan is dealing with a supply chain crisis at DiMera, and Chad is still grieving Abigail so he couldn’t put him through another funeral so soon. EJ states that it will just be he and Johnny and he doesn’t even know where they stand these days. Nicole offers to go with EJ.

Johnny approaches Ava in disguise from behind but Sister Mary Moira arrives at the church, crying and complaining, which takes Johnny’s attention away. They start to talk and Johnny mentions how hard this must be for her. Sister Mary Moira responds that she wasn’t complaining about that but about Johnny’s uncle, Brady Black which Johnny questions. She responds that Brady gave in to his carnal urges and kissed her which shocks Johnny. She remarks that it tasted like coffee and sin. Johnny tells her to hold that disturbing thought but when he turns around Ava is gone as Johnny says there was a woman right there. Johnny then questions where she is.

Eric and Sloan finish having sex. Sloan thinks they’re going to need another shower and invites Eric to shower with her. Eric says that sounds nice but he has to get to his brother’s. Sloan jokes that he’s no fun. Eric offers to let her go first but she says he can go if he’s in a hurry. Sloan adds that if Eric wants to come back tonight, they can pick up where they left off. Eric says he may take her up on that and goes to shower.

Kristen calls it a thought experiment and asks about if Brady kissed her because history shows that a kiss rarely stops at just a kiss. Kristen recalls times when they would be kissing each other goodbye and then they would suddenly be taking each others’ clothes off and heading straight back to the bedroom. Kristen asks why Brady keeps fighting this when they both know it’s still there between them. Brady tells her to stop. Kristen argues that she knows Brady wants her as much as she wants him. Kristen goes to kiss Brady when John comes home and sees them. Brady quickly moves away. John reminds Brady that he has a meeting. Brady thanks him and says he better get going so he hurries out the door. John remarks to Kristen that it looks like it’s just the two of them.

EJ thanks Nicole for her offer and says it means a lot but asks if she really wants to risk being seen with him in public again. Nicole decides she doesn’t care about that anymore because EJ is her friend and she wants to be there for him. EJ says in that case, they better get ready. Nicole decides to go change. EJ thanks her.

Johnny walks outside the church and greets Marlena as she arrives. Marlena notes him seeming distracted. Johnny tells her that he was just looking for a woman who was in the chapel and looking at pictures but when he tried to talk to her, she wouldn’t turn around. Marlena says that seems a bit odd. Johnny says he turned away for a moment and then she was gone. Marlena asks if he never saw her face. Johnny says she was wearing a big hat and had weird vibes but he just wanted to make sure she was okay. Marlena suggests people just deal with grief in different ways. Marlena thinks they should get inside. Johnny says he’ll be right behind her so Marlena tells him not to be long and heads inside.

Marlena enters the church and finds Sister Mary Moira praying. She tells Marlena that it’s good to see her. Marlena tells her that John is sorry he couldn’t be here today. Sister Mary Moira responds that it isn’t John who needs to apologize, but his son Brady that needs to atone. Marlena questions what Brady did. She explains that she came to see Marlena and instead, her stepson ravished her.

Brady meets Eric in the town square. Eric thanks him for coming. Brady says they have a lot to talk about and asks if it’s true that he was arrested and spent a night in jail. Eric remarks that great news travels fast in Salem. Brady asks what’s going on with him since he missed a whole day at work and he had to reschedule the entire summer swimsuit shoot and rebook the models. Eric apologizes. Brady says it cost him a lot of money and if he wasn’t his brother, he’d probably have to fire him. Eric responds that he’ll save him the trouble and tells Brady that he quits.

Marlena questions Sister Mary Moira saying that Brady kissed her in a romantic way. She argues there was nothing romantic about it but she’s been praying ever since. Marlena doesn’t understand why Brady would do that. She explains that Brady claimed he thought she was Kristen. She guesses that Kristen corrupted Brady’s soul and remarks that Marlena and John should have done a better job keeping Brady away from Kristen. Marlena responds that they are working on that.

John brings Kristen a beer. Kristen asks why he isn’t as Susan’s memorial with Marlena. John calls it a long story. Kristen says she’s got time. John claims that he and Marlena got in to a dispute while Christmas shopping. Kristen jokes about Salem’s greatest lovers having a fight. John calls it a difference of opinion. Kristen asks what they could possibly fight about. John responds that it was actually about her.

EJ and Nicole arrive at the church. Marlena tells EJ that she’s so sorry. EJ thanks her for being there. Marlena says Susan was a friend and she will miss her as they hug. EJ goes to say hi to his aunt, Sister Mary Moira. Marlena then greets Nicole and says she’s sorry about what happened between her and Eric. Nicole thanks her but thinks Marlena should check on Eric since he’s going through some things. Marlena asks if Nicole is here with EJ. Nicole clarifies that they are here as friends since his brothers couldn’t make it, so she thought she would show support. Marlena calls that kind of her. EJ approaches a flower arrangement which he finds was sent from Sami. Marlena calls that very thoughtful. The priest enters and asks if they are ready to start but EJ says they can’t start yet because Johnny isn’t there. Sister Mary Moira and Marlena mention seeing him earlier so they wonder where he could be.

Johnny finds Ava in disguise outside the church. Ava removes her sunglasses and confirms to Johnny that it’s her.

Phyllis: Summer.

Summer, stop. Okay? So, I want to know what you think. Give me an answer. Jack laid down the hammer. He thinks I should be fired. But then you got into the elevator. What do you think?

Summer: I’m here to pick up my take-out and then go back to the office. You really didn’t need to follow me here.

[ Sighs ]

Phyllis: Ugh.

Summer: I don’t want to discuss this in public.

Phyllis: I do.

Summer: I am telling you, mom, this can wait until I get back to the office.

Phyllis: No. I’m sorry. It cannot. So, jack wants me fired, but he’s leaving it up to you and kyle. What do you think? Are you firing me?

Sharon: Where did connor run off to?

Chelsea: Oh, uh, he went to chancellor park to play soccer with a friend.

Sharon: Soccer? Really? In this cold weather?

Chelsea: Oh. Yeah. That boy would play in 10 feet of snow if he could.

Sharon: And why didn’t you go to the park with him? I mean, despite it’s a cold day, but it’s a beautiful day. Wouldn’t it be nice to get out and get some fresh air? Chelsea, what’s going on? Why do you look so uncomfortable?

Chelsea: I’m not uncomfortable. I’m fine. Really. Okay, maybe that’s not truthful. Being out in the world again just feels very strange for me, you know? Even though I wasn’t in that hospital for very long, everything seems new and very, um, intimidating.

Sharon: That’s understandable.

Chelsea: I mean, crimson lights is the only place I feel safe venturing out to because it’s so close to my apartment. I mean, I know that sounds so silly, but it — everything else just feels terrifying.

Sharon: And that’s what made you feel anxious?

Chelsea: [ Inhales deeply ] It’s ridiculous, isn’t it?

Sharon: No, no, not at all. I’m — I’m glad that you feel comfortable and safe up in your apartment and down here in the coffeehouse, but it might be time for you to take a step or two outside of your comfort zone.

Chelsea: I know. You’re right. I mean, I’ve got errands to run, and I keep just pushing them off or asking billy or adam to help me. That’s not fair to them. And it’s not fair to connor that he can’t spend the day at the park with his mom.

Sharon: So, take that step. You can do it.

Chelsea: It just feels like walking out those doors right now would be taking on the entire world. And I’m just not sure I’m ready for that step.

Nikki: So, we have a lot of things we have to take care of while victoria’s out of town. We have some important meetings, and we’re also expecting some proposals.

Nick: Well, the proposals are time-sensitive, so I will work on those. That will expedite the process. Then you can focus on the bigger picture, which is running the business while vick’s gone.

Nikki: Actually, I thought i would handle the proposals and you can take the lead at the meetings.

Nick: Mom, you’re the co-ceo. Why would you want me to run the meetings?

Nikki: Because I think it would be good for the company for you to demonstrate some leadership.

Nick: Huh. You’re not suggesting that I be co-ceo or even ceo of newman, right?

Nikki: Oh, no, not at all. Victoria is doing a wonderful job. Victor and I have no plans to replace your sister or me.

Nick: Alright. That’s good to know.

Nikki: I mean, down the line, I would love to see you take over my position. But right now, I’m happy watching my children step up and shine the way I know they can. With the exception of your personal life.

Nick: [ Chuckles ] Skin your face will envy?

Nikki: Mom, personal lives are personal for a reason. That’s why this topic is not up for discussion.

Nikki: Your father is quite concerned about your involvement with sally.

Nick: Oh, I know. He hasn’t held back at all.

Nikki: Well, it’s about more than just his opinion of her. He’s worried that the tension between you and your brother could be made even worse.

Nick: I’m not gonna waste my life worrying about what adam thinks. If we didn’t have conflict over this, we’d find something else, mom, because that is the nature of our relationship.

Nikki: And I agree that maybe the two of you will never get along. Let’s keep the focus on sally for now. It doesn’t sound like you read the dossier that your father gave to you about her. If you had, you would learn that she faked a terminal illness.

Nick: Yeah, I heard about that.

Nikki: Well, good, ’cause i didn’t want to be the one to break it to you. But now that you know, do you really want to bring another ashland locke into the family?

Sharon: I think it would be a great idea for you to start venturing out. You know? After everything you’ve been through. Just think of how differently you’ll see the world now.

Chelsea: How so?

Sharon: The negative lens that you’ve been seeing through has shifted. Just think how refreshing it will be to see the world in a whole new light — less drab, hostile, hurtful.

Chelsea: That does sound nice.

Sharon: Well, of course not if you’re not ready. You know, it’s also important that you take things at your own pace and continue to consult with your therapist about everything every step of the way.

Chelsea: Yeah, dr. Malone agrees with you. She says I need to start re-engaging with the world, but slowly. You know, it’s like the errands. She wants me to take it step by step, with an end point in mind.

Sharon: That sounds like a good plan.

Chelsea: I’m trying to be more careful and deliberate instead of impulsive and reckless. You know? I’ve had all of these conversations, you know, making amends, and, quite frankly, they’ve been brutal, but also really helpful because it’s helped me reflect on the choices I’ve made so hopefully I can make better choices going forward.

Sharon: I’m so proud of you and the progress you’re making.

Chelsea: Well, saying these things out loud, facing the people I’ve hurt, facing my own shame, it helps me to stop letting the shame control me.

Sharon: See? This is why I got my degree in psychology. It is just so rewarding to see people escape their demons and start blossoming and flourishing, like you are now.

Chelsea: Well, before I do that, I think the universe wants me to finish making amends to all the people I’ve wronged.

Phyllis: Okay, yeah, i brought jeremy stark into town. So what? But, uh, I should get some credit because, um, when he asked me to help him find diane, what did I do? I didn’t tell him. I didn’t tell him anything about diane. I stopped right there. I shot him down.

Summer: At this point, mom, that counts for very little.

Phyllis: I mean, what is this? What has happened to us? My own daughter doesn’t believe me. For the last time, this is not my responsibility. This is what diane did. I didn’t do it. Nikki didn’t do it. Ashley didn’t do it. No one did it but diane.

Summer: Diane wouldn’t even be on stark’s radar right now if it wasn’t for you.

Phyllis: And stark wouldn’t even be here if it wasn’t for diane. And what she did in los angeles when she was lying to everybody, pretending she was dead — come on. This is her responsibility. She takes no accountability. And now she’s paying the price.

Summer: Yes, but everyone has a past, present company included. So, by your logic, does nobody deserve a second chance? Where would that leave either of us, hmm?

Phyllis: Okay. Where is this coming from? This is not how you feel about me, summer. You’re just taking jack’s lead, when he was rattling off my past history and using it against me.

Summer: Actually, I have defended you to jack so many times, earlier today included, but you make that really difficult.

Phyllis: You could say what you want, go ahead and claim what you want, but you haven’t trusted diane from the minute she arrived in town.

Nick: How can you even think about comparing sally and ashland? They’re nothing alike, mom.

Nikki: When sally was still in los angeles, she told everybody she was dying so she could manipulate them, just like ashland.

Nick: We have all done things in our life we are not proud of. But I know sally is not the same person she was in L.A. She’s worked very hard to make some changes in her life. And unlike ashland, sally has learned from her mistakes, and she’s determined to do things the right way.

Nikki: She tried to ruin summer’s life. Summer and kyle almost didn’t find their way back to each other because of what sally did.

Nick: But they did. And that trip to milan turned out to be one of the best things to ever happen to summer’s life. Now, as summer’s father, obviously I don’t condone what sally did to her. But I can see both sides, and I’ve made peace with it.

Nikki: I am so disappointed to hear you say that.

Nick: Well, mom, I’m sorry you and dad don’t agree with this, but whoever I choose to spend my time with is nobody’s business but my own.

Nikki: And I understand that. But aren’t you the least bit concerned about this might affect your relationship with summer?

Nick: No, because summer loves me and eventually she’s gonna see that I’m happy and that’s gonna be the only thing that matters to her.

Sally: Sorry. Am I interrupting something? Who says you have to spend more on skincare I’ve got the n, it’s just my

Sally: Well [Clears throat] Seems like I just walked in on something pretty intense.

Nick: Nah, it’s just my family, as usual, making their opinions known.

Sally: Anything I should be concerned about?

Nick: No. So, how’d I get so lucky? To what do I owe this surprise?

Sally: Well, I need some of that newman business savvy. I’ve got the numbers on my new business plan, so I was hoping maybe you could take a look and share some of your expertise.

Nick: See what you got. Hmm. I like what I see… on the tablet.

Sally: Really?

Nick: Yeah. I mean, it’s great. If I were you, I would bump up the budget just to allow for any variables that you may not have considered. This includes any tax liabilities or expendables. It’ll also give you some wiggle room in case you run into any supply-chain issues or price increases due to market fluctuations. But, I mean, it’s great. I admire your attention to detail.

Sally: Wow. That sounds great.

Nick: [ Chuckles ] I love the smile, but what’s it for?

Sally: Well, I don’t want to cross any lines, but you are very sexy when you talk all business-Y.

[ Chuckles ]

Victoria: Hi.

Sharon: Your usual, I assume?

Victoria: Yes. Thank you.

Sharon: Okay. It’ll be coming right out.

Victoria: Great. Hello, chelsea. How’s everything going?

Chelsea: Um, I’m just taking it one day at a time, trying to tackle some new challenges while also dealing with some past issues. You know, it’s a process.

Victoria: Good for you.

Chelsea: Thank you. Uh, I was wondering if I could take a moment of your time.

Victoria: Oh, actually, I’m — I’m meeting my car that’s taking me to the airport. I’m leaving on a business trip.

Chelsea: Oh. I understand. Well, maybe we can talk when you get back.

Victoria: Chelsea. Uh…on second thought, I-I do have a few minutes.

Phyllis: This has nothing to do with my feelings about diane.

Phyllis: It has everything to do about your feelings of diane. You must have seen how diane has affected your husband. Come on. She left him when he was a little boy. She broke his heart.

Summer: That’s not the point.

Phyllis: It is the point. It’s inevitable she’ll do it again, or she will be driven out of town or — oh, I didn’t ordered that, but thank you.

[ Chuckles ]

Adam: Hey, if your conversation’s a private one, you might want to consider keeping it down.

Phyllis: Okay.

Summer: [ Scoffs ]

Phyllis: Thanks.

[ Quietly ] What I was saying is

[Loudly] Why should I be punished when the inevitable is going to happen?

Summer: Okay, stop! Just stop! Have you ever considered that there might be more at play here than what you know? -Hi, dr. Rick. It’s julie. -[ Gasps ] That’s me. So, what is this about?

Chelsea: Uh, have a seat.

Chelsea: Uh, have a seat. Can I get you anything to drink or…

Victoria: Uh, no, thank you. Like I said before, I’m in a bit of a tight schedule. So, what is this about?

Chelsea: Um…okay. Uh, I asked you to come here so I could make amends. And I’m hoping you’ll be willing to hear me out. Victoria, I owe you an apology. And it’s long overdue.

Victoria: An apology? For what?

Chelsea: Well [Chuckles] I mean, it all started in myanmar. What I did to billy, obviously, was…horribly wrong. Uh, and I acknowledged that earlier, and I apologized to him. But the way I came to genoa city… I tried to destroy your marriage. And it was shameful and unacceptable.

Victoria: I don’t disagree with that. But it was a long time ago.

Chelsea: And more recently. The way I disrupted your family life with johnny. I was so insistent on telling him the truth that I was his biological mother, and I know it caused a lot of stress for you. It was very selfish of me. And I want you to know, truly, for any pain, for any turmoil i caused…I’m sorry.

Noah: You know, that’s kind of too fancy a word to me, but it sounds cool.

Allie: It’s not.

Sharon: Hey. What’s all the excitement about?

Allie: Hey.

Noah: Oh, nothing new. It’s just my girl’s a genius. But I’ve known that since day one.

Allie: I am not a genius, noah. I have just been researching the effectiveness of maceration versus distillation in the scent extraction process. And I had a pretty big breakthrough in my research, so I’m hoping to share that with ashley and some of the other execs at jabot. I think if we alter some of our processes, we could really meaningfully increase our production rates and profit margin.

Sharon: Oh, that’s great. Um, I have no idea what you’re talking about.

Noah: Yeah, neither do I. That’s how I know it’s genius.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Allie: Oh. It’s, uh, mariah.

Noah: Huh. My sister can’t even manage to text me, but she’s calling you. That’s cool.

Allie: Well, you know, maybe it’s about christmas, and maybe it’s none of your business.

Noah: Okay.

[ Chuckles ]

Nick: Alright. Somebody thinks I’m sexy.

Sally: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: And business talk is her thing. In that case, I want to schedule the video conference call for 8:00 A.M. Sharp. We’ll go over the budget cuts extensively. And I want your report on my desk by the end of the day. Marge! Hold all my calls!

Sally: You know [Clears throat] Actually, I think I was wrong about the whole sexy thing.

Nick: I like spending time with you…working with you… laughing and spending time with you. I already said that part.

Sally: [ Laughs ]

Nick: I like it. I know you’re a very busy woman, but if you could fit me in your schedule, maybe you could pencil me in for, like, a dinner or something.

Phyllis: Wait a second. Wait a second. What are you — what are you saying? There’s more going on here than I, uh, know about?

Summer: You know what, mom? There are many levels of emotional fallout from what you did. I mean, did you even stop to think about how many people that you would be hurting in this, how it might affect harrison to have his grandmother ran out of town, for him to lose another important person in his life? Did you think about that?

Phyllis: Oh, diane is not that important to harrison.

Summer: He adores her. He’s already asking, “how many sleeps until dee dee gets back?” Okay? And did you even stop to imagine how hard this would be on kyle? He’s away on business now, so once again he has lost the opportunity to say goodbye to his mother, thanks to you.

Phyllis: Well, not thanks to me. Thanks to diane — because she decided to leave town. She should have stuck around a while longer.

Summer: [ Scoffs ] Did you even consider what the stress of what you did would do to my marriage?

Phyllis: Kyle will not blame you for any of this.

Summer: Maybe not. But if my husband is hurting, that’s gonna change things between the two of us. You know, we’re not even talking about the fact that as long as stark is in town, we could all be targeted.

Phyllis: We’re not targeted. His sole focus is diane. But once again, where is she? Oh, she disappeared. And now we’re stuck with stark.

Summer: Oh, okay. So, you’re just pointing the finger back at her?

Phyllis: Pretty much, yeah. And by the way, I helped diane out when I told stark that i would not help him find her. I shut him down. Do you understand that? It’s over. And I told him to go to los angeles.

Summer: Okay, so, now you’re taking a step back, you’re throwing your hands in the air and claiming that you tried? Mom, you have taken zero accountability for the repercussions of your thoughtless actions. Not to mention the lives that are at stake here. People that you claim to love.

Phyllis: Oh, wow. I guess I didn’t know how high the stakes were.

Summer: You don’t even care. Do you even want to know what kyle and I are thinking?

Phyllis: Um, not really, but — but I’m afraid to ask. So be — be — be nice. What are you thinking?

Summer: Kyle and I have already discussed everything, and we both agree with jack. Your employment at marchetti will be terminated effective immediately.

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Sally: This feels good. Wonderful, in fact. You know, this whole thing is new to me, planning dates, taking things slow. I always felt like I was trying to outrun things with adam. But this…

Nick: I know what you mean. We can just enjoy the journey.

Sally: Look at us. We have all the time in the world. Except for right now. Unfortunately, I actually got a to-go order at society because i did not know where things stood between us and I — I definitely didn’t want to overstay my welcome. So, that was my way of giving myself a time limit, and i really need to go pick up my order.

Nick: Okay.

Sally: Sorry. But… I will pencil you in.

Sharon: Is allie still on the phone with mariah?

Noah: Yeah. Hopefully it’s a big surprise for me. I’m telling you, mom, allie is just…

[ Sighs ] She’s amazing. And brilliant. I’m really glad I get to spend another christmas here with the family and now with her, too. Okay, you don’t look nearly as happy as I do. Is something going on?

Sharon: I wanted to take a moment to speak with you before allie comes back.

Noah: Is something wrong?

Sharon: Audra was here earlier looking for you.

Victoria: I appreciate you making this effort to apologize. I can’t imagine how difficult that must have been for you. Especially since you and i haven’t had a particularly close relationship over the past years.

Chelsea: Yeah.

Victoria: I hope you know that I sincerely do want the best for you in your recovery. But I… I can’t help but having a few concerns.

Chelsea: You think I said all this to you because I still plan to push for a deeper relationship with johnny?

Phyllis: You’re firing me.

[ Laughs ] Wow, this is absolutely unbelievable.

Summer: I never wanted it to come to this.

Phyllis: Uh-huh. Diane — she’s not even in town, and she’s pulling the strings.

Summer: Mom, I told you what the consequences would be if this thing with diane got out of control, and you still decided to contact stark. So, I don’t know what you wanted me to do. Oh. Thank you so much.

[ Exhales sharply ] And you know what? While you’re so busy blaming diane, you’re not even taking a moment to stop and think about how you should be held accountable for your actions. I really hope that this is at least a learning experience for you. I brought in ensure max protein

Adam: Hi.

Sally: Hi.

Adam: I got to say, I’m a little surprised that you would, uh, choose to join me.

Sally: Well, you should be. I mean, I’m not afraid of running into you. I believe we came to a good and natural resolution to our relationship.

Adam: I’m glad you feel that way.

Sally: Besides, I’m just here to pick up my takeout. I would say that it is a surprise to run into you, but we seem to see each other everywhere we go, so…

Adam: Yeah.

Well, genoa city’s not that big, so it’s inevitable.

Sally: Well, you should be careful or you might lose your job if you don’t start showing up to jabot every once in a while.

Adam: [ Chuckles ] Uh, work is work. And it’ll get done.

Sally: Well, with your drive and focus, jabot’s very lucky to have you. Newman’s loss is definitely their gain.

Adam: Losing jobs at newman is a trend for the current patrons of this bar.

Sally: Ohh. Ouch. But true. Now we’re just doing our best to move on.

Adam: So, how are you spending your time these days?

Lauren: Oh!

Michael: Hey, phyllis.

Lauren: Hi.

Phyllis: Mm.

Lauren: Are you dining alone?

Phyllis: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Hey, uh, lauren, I wanted to let you know that your advice to just, um, you know, let diane be and move on — uh, well, that was wrong. Her level of evil has affected all of us.

Michael: Mm. [ Chuckles ] Nice to see you again, phyllis. Maybe we should, uh, have a drink together before you tear my wife to shreds.

Phyllis: And you. You — you’re hired to keep tabs on people by victor. I mean, did you not notice diane’s huge skeleton in her L.A. Closet?

Michael: I’m not sure what you’re referring to.

Phyllis: Mm! Exactly my point. I mean, because of your negligence, diane is the damsel in distress and jack is her white knight. In fact, he’s thinking of going head-to-head with jeremy stark, one of the most dangerous men i have ever met in my life.

Lauren: Uh, who’s jeremy stark?

Michael: He’s an ex-con that diane got mixed up with in los angeles and now, according to victor’s investigators, is in genoa city for seemingly nefarious purposes. Oh, wait. [ Chuckles ] So, I did actually know who the skeleton is.

Phyllis: And diane, as you say, got mixed up with him, but, um, for some reason, I’m responsible for all the problems he’s creating.

Michael: I don’t know if you remember this, but I warned you early on to let this go. I told you that the potential losses weren’t worth trying to destroy diane.

Phyllis: What? Seriously? “I told you so”? That’s all you’re gonna say to me?

Michael: I also remember telling you that this could potentially bite you in the ass, which now seems to be the case.

Noah: Yeah, I can’t say I’m surprised audra asked you about me.

Sharon: Well, actually, she spoke to one of my baristas and I kind of overheard. But don’t worry. She didn’t say anything to audra. Um, I think I see a customer who needs help. I’m gonna…

Allie: You know, I have to say I am really impressed with audra’s level of confidence and entitlement.

Noah: That’s how she’s always been.

Allie: I mean, I-I just don’t understand how she still thinks there should ever be anything between you two. You have repeatedly told her it’s over, right? And nothing has happened since then?

Noah: [ Sighs ]

Allie: Like, you can’t think of anything you might have said or — or done that could have led her on in some way, right? Or can you?

Noah: No, no, not really.

Allie: I know there’s something that you haven’t told me. What is it? Who says you have to spend more on skincare

Victoria: You’re right. I am very curious to know what your intentions are in regards to johnny.

Chelsea: [ Sighs ] Let me assure you, my sole focus right now is getting better. I am not going after johnny. I am not going to do anything that’s gonna make either one of you uncomfortable.

Victoria: Well, that’s good to hear.

Chelsea: I’ve come to realize through working with my therapist that I think I was reaching out to johnny to fill some kind of void inside. And that wasn’t fair to him. And it certainly wasn’t fair to you. You’re an amazing woman who’s done an incredible job raising this beautiful boy.

Victoria: Thank you for saying that.

Chelsea: He’s a really lucky kid. So…thank you for all you’ve done for him.

Victoria: I love johnny. I love him more than words can say. I would do anything for him. The thought of losing him… I’m glad to hear that you want what’s best for johnny because that’s all that I want.

Noah: [ Sighs ] There is something that I need to tell you.

Allie: Okay. Whatever it is, I can handle it.

Noah: Audra came to see me at the club. Now, I figured she just wanted to talk more about the miscarriage, you know, actually have a real conversation for once, now that everything’s been aired out and I’ve had time to process the whole thing.

Allie: But that’s not what she wanted?

Noah: No. No, not by a long shot. She, uh… she made it abundantly clear, with no uncertain terms, that what she really wanted was me. She still thinks there’s this undeniable spark between the two of us, and, um… before I knew what was happening, she, uh — she kissed me.

Allie: She what?

Noah: I pulled away. You know, without any hesitation, I put a stop to it, but I guess she still was able to read into the situation more than there actually was.

Allie: What was there for her to read into? Did you respond to her? Noah, did you kiss her back?

Noah: I can’t —

Allie: Even for a little bit?

Noah: I can’t be sure. I just —

Allie: Oh, so, that’s why she won’t give up?

Noah: Look, I don’t know, alright? It was confusing. It all happened really fast.

Allie: Tell me, noah. Do I need to be worried?

Noah: [ Sighs ]

Sally: Actually, I am in the process of developing a business plan for an interior design company. So I actually don’t have an overwhelming amount of free time for personal matters at the moment.

Adam: Wow. Interior design. Wow, that’s how you’re choosing to follow up running newman media.

Sally: Yeah. Chloe and I are hoping to partner with chancellor-winters and design for their hotels, their offices, their entertainment venues. Once I get my foot in the door, I have no doubt that my company will be a success.

Adam: Well, your fierce optimism never ceases to impress me. I knew it wouldn’t be long until you landed on your feet. So, I wish you nothing but good fortune and success on your new venture. And believe it or not, I hope nick brings you the happiness that you deserve.

Sally: Thank you. I, uh — I appreciate that. And, yes, um, nick and I have decided to…officially start seeing each other. But, you know, we’re — we’re going slow.

Adam: You know, please don’t go slow on my account. You know, despite everything i said, I wish you both well.

Phyllis: “I told you so”? Really? That’s all you got for me? “I told you so”? Well, that’s great. Excuse me. My work is done here. Look at this guy — adam. Look at him. You know he’s co-ceo of jabot? Did you know that? I never see him there. I haven’t once seen him there. I just see him hanging around town, skulking, hanging out at bars. Jack doesn’t fire him. No. Me? All I’m doing is trying to save the abbott family and save my daughter. That’s all I’m doing. And I get fired.

Sally: Lauren.

Lauren: Sally.

Sally: Michael.

Michael: Hey.

Sally: Good to see you. Phyllis, it’s great to run into you, as well. This actually gives me the perfect opportunity to give you a heads-up. You might want to know that you may need to step up your game. I’m sure you haven’t heard yet ’cause we’re still finalizing the details, but pretty soon i am going to be your biggest competitor.

Phyllis: What fantasy are you spinning, sally?

Sally: Oh, it’s very real. Chloe and I are launching an interior design business. We’ll probably be going head-to-head with marchetti home. How exciting is that? Well, have a good day, you all. I know I will.

Lauren: Um…to the bar.

Michael: Yeah. Bottle of scotch with two straws. Bye.

Phyllis: Oh, my god. Everyone’s lost their damn mind.

[ Sighs ] A dental tool is round for a reason.

“The young and the restless”

will continue. Are you feeling sluggish

Kyle: How my mother ever allowed herself to get involved with a guy like you, I will never understand.

Jeremy: I wouldn’t expect you to.

Jack: Look, diane got involved in a lot of things in L.A. We didn’t know about. We certainly didn’t expect to be involved in this.

Kyle: Well, you don’t have to worry about it now. She’s gone. Whatever the truth is about what happened between you, you scared her enough where she ran out on us without as much as a goodbye.

Jack: I told you not to do this. This is taking us farther away from why we’re here.

Jeremy: Which is?

Jeremy: [ Chuckles ] How convenient.

Jack: Kyle and I had nothing to do with any of your business dealings with diane. We thought she was dead. There is nothing for you here now.

Jeremy: You wouldn’t happen to have stashed her away somewhere until I leave, would you?

Kyle: Hey, it is almost christmas, and my son is in tears, wondering why his grandmother isn’t there, and I have to figure out a way to explain to him when or even if we will ever see her.

Jeremy: Hm. No promises. But… I’ll consider it.

Summer: I know that it’s going to take time for you to move on.

Phyllis: You know, you talk about being one big, happy family without any irony in your voice at all. It’s truly fantastic. You know, I sold my hotel so I could work with you.

Summer: But it wasn’t really about working together, and you know it.

Summer: Mom, don’t try to pretend that that doesn’t bother you.

Phyllis: It bothers me because she’s trying to peddle some sanitized version of her life in los angeles, and she’s lying and I know she’s lying. I’ll never trust her.

Summer: Okay, well, not everyone despises her as much as you do.

Billy: [ Sighs ]

Chelsea: Well, thanks for spending this time with me.

Billy: No need to thank me. I had a good time.

Billy: Yeah, the baby blanket.

Chelsea: This one will be better.

[ Chuckles ] And you and victoria, you can decide the appropriate time to give it to him.

Billy: Okay.

Chelsea: And if it’s okay with you guys, I’m hoping the boys, johnny and connor, can spend some time together over the holidays.

Billy: Yeah, we’ll see if we can make that work. You know, I’ll talk to victoria about it.

Chelsea: I apologized to her earlier, the way I apologized to you. Seemed to go well, all things considered.

Billy: Good to know.

[ Knock on door ]

Chelsea: I’m hoping that will make victoria more amenable. You know, the boys have a great bond.

Billy: Mm.

Chelsea: I’m hoping we can encourage it. Hi, I’m angela.

Adam: Hi. I hope this isn’t a bad time. I just brought some gifts for you and for, um, connor. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to interrupt.

Billy: It’s okay. Just about to head out. Well [Clears throat] Thank you very much. I had a lovely time. And, of course, I’ll see you soon. Plenty of more classic movies to watch.

Chelsea: I’ll be sure to stock up on the popcorn.

Billy: Let me know if you need anything, okay?

Chelsea: Thanks.

Billy: Okay.

Chelsea: Bye.

Billy: Bye. Hey.

Adam: I’m still waiting on a few things for connor, but I figured I would get these to you.

Chelsea: Aww, that’s nice. I’ll be sure to put these out for him.

Adam: Yeah, whatever works.

Chelsea: Oh, I’m very excited for you to see the gift he’s making for you. That kid is creative.

Adam: Oh, I can’t wait. As long as I’m here, I figured that we could just discuss the holidays. I assume that you want to do something low-key and avoid the big newman family gathering.

Phyllis: [ Exhales sharply ]

Tucker: Looks like someone’s having a hell of a day.

Phyllis: Who asked you?

Tucker: No one. It was a comment, not a reply. And I withdraw. Word to the wise — stop fighting the world so hard. The more at peace you are, the more things go your way.

Phyllis: Thanks for that.

Daniel: Mom.

Phyllis: Hey, baby.

Daniel: Hey.

Phyllis: Hey. Oh, my goodness. I’m so glad I ran into you. I’m so glad.

Daniel: You’re smiling so hard, it looks like it hurts. What’s up?

Phyllis: Yeah. Um, hey, let’s go.

Daniel: Talk to me.

Phyllis: Um, okay, well, uh…

[ Sighs ] I’m not working at marchetti anymore.

Daniel: Whoa, whoa. What? Why?

Phyllis: You know, summer and I, we mutually agreed we just have different visions.

Daniel: Uh-huh. Okay. What’s the real story?

Daniel: So you’re free and clear?

Phyllis: Yeah. Thanks. I mean, that is the positive spin.

Daniel: Then come work with me.

Lily: Hi.

Billy: Hi. You got here fast. Do you want a coffee or tea or something?

Lily: Maybe in a minute. Should we sit?

Billy: Yeah.

Lily: Okay.

Billy: [ Clears throat ]

Lily: How’s chelsea doing?

Billy: She’s good. She’s getting stronger every day.

Lily: Good. Sounds positive.

Billy: Yeah, I think so.

Lily: You seemed a little off when I came in. Did something happen?

Billy: Adam happened. He showed up at chelsea’s door, and he oozes misery. And I just don’t think that that’s good for her right now.

Lily: Well, it kind of seems like you think you’re the only one who knows what’s good for her right now.

Kyle: I couldn’t get a read on stark. Could you?

Jack: Like all good liars, he’s very opaque, though I must say, your performance was very believable.

Kyle: That’s because my hatred for him is real. Question is, did he buy it?

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Summer: Please tell me it’s done.

Jack: We did everything we could. Now we wait.

Ashley: Hi. Kyle, you’re back from your business trip. How was it?

Kyle: Uh, g-good. Productive.

Summer: What do you think about the tree?

Ashley: Wow. Did you do that?

Summer: Most of it.

Ashley: Beautiful. You did a fantastic job.

Summer: Thank you. I enjoyed doing it.

Ashley: Okay, so you all got very quiet when I came in. Anybody want to tell me what’s going on?

Skin your face will envy?

Daniel: It is official, as of today. Chancellor-winters will be launching my new gaming platform.

Phyllis: What?

Daniel: Mm-hmm.

Phyllis: This is amazing. Congratulations.

Daniel: Thank you. Yeah, I’m just a little excited.

Phyllis: Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Tell me everything.

Phyllis: Wow. That’s very cutting edge.

Phyllis: I love that, because, you know, your sister doesn’t seem to trust me, so…

Daniel: Well, I don’t agree with her. I see things differently. Look, you are an avid gamer. You’re also a hacker from back in the day.

Phyllis: Shh.

Daniel: You love this world. You know the languages inside and out. I mean, this makes sense. I would love for you to join me on this.

Billy: You know, you almost sounded a little…

Lily: Hostile? I mean, maybe so. I just — I don’t feel like i know at all what’s going on inside your head these days.

Billy: Because you have a problem with how much time I’m spending with chelsea.

Lily: No, billy, like I said, this is not just about chelsea, and this is way too big for us to ignore. So if you want to work on this relationship, if you still care about it —

Billy: Lily, yes, of course i do.

Lily: Well, then I think that we need help. I think that we should go to couple’s counseling.

Billy: Okay, what I hear you saying is that you think I’m heading off the rails again.

Lily: No, no. This is not about you. This is about us. And this is really, really important to me. And I don’t feel confident that we can handle this on our own.

Billy: Okay. Yes, let’s do that. Let’s, um… let’s set something up for after the holidays.

Lily: Thank you.

Jack: The only thing we are up to is trimming the tree and trying to engender some holiday spirit.

Kyle: We left some more amounts for you to hang.

Summer: Yeah, traci has them in this box over here.

Ashley: Oh, well, how sweet. Well, okay, then. I guess it’s been a long day. I’m going to go upstairs and take a bath.

Jack: [ Sighs ]

Summer: How did things go with stark?

Jack: He said he would consider my offer.

Kyle: There’s no telling how long he will drag this out for.

Summer: Or if we could even trust him.

Kyle: I’m thinking about going back up to the cabin so my mom doesn’t feel so abandoned tomorrow.

Summer: On christmas eve?

Jack: Wait, kyle, I know you want to do this for diane, but I think that’s risky.

Jeremy: I still have business here genoa city. No, I have some stuff here I need to take care of on my own.

Kyle: I’ll be careful to fly under the radar. Stark won’t have a clue.

Jack: You hope.

Summer: Kyle, I really wish you would reconsider.

Kyle: You didn’t see the tears in my mother’s eyes when i said goodbye to her earlier. I can’t stand the thought of her being up there alone, not on christmas.

Summer: [ Sighs ]

Kyle: [ Sighs ]

Next week on “the young and the restless”…

Victor: That’s up to adam, you know? He’s the one who turned his back on us. If he wants to be back in the fold, then let him make the move.

Tessa: Well, we’re meeting with a pregnant woman after new year’s to discuss the possibility of adoption.

Sharon: Wow, really? That’s amazing.

Daniel: Dad?

Danny: Merry christmas, son. [ Chuckles ]

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Curtis: A few more. Do I? Yeah, no, that’s good. There you go. Good. Well, you certainly have fight. Yeah, actually, I have osteoporosis. I think my doctor would be happy if I were doing this. So you mean you haven’t been doing this for years? No, I have not. I would never come to this gym unless you made me. I’m just trying to look natural. Well, I think it’s important that we establish a winning mindset before we try to catch a serial killer before someone else dies.

[ Suspenseful music plays ] Pcpd. Anyone home?

[ Door slams ]

[ Gasps ]

[ Gunshot ] Detective falconeri. We got shots fired. I repeat — shots fired. Oh, I like that one. Oh…I don’t know. You don’t think it’s a little too frou-frou for me? Oh, no. You have good taste. And pick a wedding dress that makes you happy. Right. You know what? I’m sorry. I just can’t help but think — um, are curtis and i making a mistake by still getting married in february? I mean, how reckless is it of us to push on and have this ceremony that’s supposed to be all about love and connection and… and esme’s on the loose? I-I just don’t know. Something about it just doesn’t feel right. Don’t let anyone stand in the way of your happiness. Not even a killer like esme? Esme will be sure to do more damage again, but she will never take another life. Beautiful.

[ Gasps ] Oh! Nikolas, you scared me.

[ Sighs ] I’m sorry. Your bodyguard gave me the go-ahead to come in. Well, it should, um, fetch a nice price, assuming it’s safe to open the gallery one day. It’s coming, ava. And when I said, “beautiful,” I wasn’t referring to the sculpture. That’s sweet. It’s true. Despite all that’s happened and all that… may happen. I love you. I always will. If only that’s all it took to fix things, right? We have to deal with esme and your son and your uncle, my mistrust, your misdeeds. What are the odds? Let me help. Cameron can help her. I’ve got it. Thank you. Just cancel my order. I’ll go somewhere else. No, no, you ordered, so you need to pay. No, he doesn’T. Not a problem. Your uncle pays me well.

[ Gasps ] Spencer, you ass! Here. I’m good. Come on. Take a swing. Do some damage if you can. Have you seen rory, by any chance? I asked the front desk, but no one could tell me where he is. Uh, he was in my office not 20 minutes ago. He must be around here somewhere. Police!

[ Glass shattering ] When a cold comes on strong, knock it out with vicks dayquil severe. Just one dose starts to relieve 9 of your worst cold and flu symptoms. To help take you from 9 to none. Power through with vicks dayquil severe. Hey! Knock it off! Not here, not now! Thank you. It wouldn’t have helped anything to knock him flat, no matter how much he deserves it. Oh, please. He’s just embarrassed that he fell like a sack of — calm down. Stop it! What are you doing? What? You just got out of prison. Now you’re already causing problems? What did he ever do to you? Cam just told me that he put you in danger. Hey, dex, bud. Get out! Ignore him. You don’t have to go anywhere. You have no clue what I do or don’t have to do. Hey, you’re leaving? No. We haven’t even conspired yet. By the way, this was a good idea to meet here. There’s no way that jordan would frequent a place that sonny owns. Yeah, I had that in mind when I suggested that we meet here. Jordan’s all about propriety these days. Not a bad quality for a cop. Yeah, but the problem is, she overcorrected. The pcpd is remaining very tightfisted about the information the general public could use to make a connection no one else has. That was my intention in printing the killer’s letter, although nothing came from it. So aside from opening up a line of communication, I’m really not sure what else I can do. And I’m not sure what we can do together. Uh, unless jordan might confide in you after all. Not directly, anyhow. Thanks, esparza. Let me know when he shows up. Well, rory’s shift ended, but he hasn’t collected his personal “go back” stuff yet, so he’s probably just, you know, cleaning up paperwork or something. You’re welcome to wait for him here. Oh, I… I don’t — I don’t want to be in the way. I doubt that’s ever true of you. Besides, rory would be happy to see you when he’s finished. Not for long. I just meant that I shouldn’t bother him at work. I’ll go… uh, catch up with cam at kelly’s, maybe see rory there. Trina, what’s wrong? I’ll let you go. Thanks for trying.

[ Telephone rings ] Commissioner ashford. When? What’s falconeri’s position? He stopped responding? Get paramedics and tactical on the scene. I’ll meet them there.

[ Rustling ] Police! Let me see your hands!

[ Coughs ] Cabrera. The hook. What? Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, finn. Oh. Just some pre-wedding stuff going on over here.

[ Chuckles ] What’s up? Nothing’s up. Hey. I, uh… please excuse me.

[ Elevator bell dings ] Finn. Glad I caught you. Hey, dad. Uh, your assistant said you’d be clocking out right about now. Um, I’m taking you to dinner. No, I, uh — I have a lot of case files waiting. Can’t take one night off? I can. I don’t want to. Maybe you need to. Alexis say something to you? You know her better than that. And I know you better than you think. It’s obvious that you’re in a bad way. And not just to me, either. Violet is on to you, too, and it’s taking a toll. Now, what makes you so sure that esme won’t spill any more blood? Well, she can’t fly under the radar with the whole city looking for her. I’m sure she’s just holed up somewhere, biding her time, thinking she can wait it out. But she can’T. At some point, she’ll step into the light and get caught. And our families will have nothing more to fear from her. Please get married. Give us something to look forward to. In addition to the justice coming for our kids and everyone else esme has hurt. It’s a deal. But you have to do your part, too. You have to rsvp.

[ Laughs ] I haven’t gotten confirmation that you or finn are coming to my wedding. It was never gonna be easy for us. But the best things never are. Because those are the things worth having. I might be here for a while. I was thinking about ordering takeout. You want to join me? Wish I could. Other plans? Not hungry. And, besides, I can’t stay long. I just… came to give you these. An early christmas present? Is this from your lawyer? I thought it best that you got it directly from me. Are you serving me?! It’s a divorce, ava. It’s over.

Sam: Hey. Hi. Hi. Oh, thank you for coming. Yes. Of course. Oh, I knew things were getting dire when I was seeking advice from cody bell. Yikes. What’s going on? I just need some perspective. And you’re the best one to give it to me. Okay, I will try. First, I need to know what you think of austin. Um… oh, my god. I can’t believe you didn’t tell me. What — what didn’t I tell you? That you don’t like him. I don’T…not like him. No, no, you “don’t not like” jicama. You “don’t not like” folding laundry, even though it’s, like, one of the easiest household chores ever. But you never look forward to doing it. And you wouldn’t choose it if you were given the choice. Yeah, true. But I-I don’t have to choose austin.

You do. Of course, unless you don’T. You’re divorcing me? Now is as good a time as any. We could begin 2023 with a fresh start. Did you give in to your uncle? Does he have something else on you now? My uncle doesn’t have anything to do with this. Do you expect me to believe that? After months of begging, of prostrating yourself, of putting your life in my hands… see the attached offer. You’ll see that I’m serious. This isn’t your post-nup money, but it is more than generous. And you could take me to court, you could demand more. But it’s best for everyone to not protract a legal battle. With my uncle and my resources, we would keep you mired for years. Bleed you dry. Scott won’t work gratis, not even for you. This isn’t happening. Take a few days. Sit on it. You’re a pragmatic woman, ava. You’ll see that this is the best outcome. You don’t want to divorce me. You’re lost without me, and you know it. Something drove you to this against your will, made you think you have no option other than to divorce me. But you do. I’ll give you one. Just tell me what’s behind this… or who. Nikolas, you won’t be alone. I’ll be at your side. I am so sorry I-I haven’t rsvp’d sooner. That’s okay. But you will be attending, though, won’t you? Elizabeth, my wedding wouldn’t be the same without you and finn. Yes, I — I wouldn’t miss it. Okay. But I can’t speak for finn. Things are not working out with us. We broke up. What’s wrong with violet? She’s worried about you. We were supposed to go ice skating today, but after I got her laced up, she wouldn’t budge off the bench, wouldn’t meet my eyes. It took a hot chocolate with extra marshmallows to pull it out of her. What did she say? “Daddy’s sad.” Then she asked if I knew why. What’d you tell her? That I thought so, too, and I wasn’t exactly sure why. I told her the best thing we can do for you is to make sure you knew you weren’t alone. So we bagged the ice skating and made some art instead.

[ Sighs ] What? I never thought something so helpful could hurt so much. What is it about that punk that makes you want to protect him from sonny? D-dex saved ava’s life. I mean, if he hadn’t gotten her to the hospital on time, avery wouldn’t have a mom. Spencer, you didn’t even know the guy, and you punched him in the face. What is wrong with you? I thought you couldn’t stand him. Oh, so you decked him for my sake? Don’t do me any favors. Okay. Okay. “Welcome back, spencer. Glad you survived super max. Uh, thanks for being a pal.” Clearly, I’m not needed here.

[ Door slams ] Rory: I can’t breathe. Dante: Hang in there, okay? We’re gonna get you some help. Hey. Cabrera said it was the hook. I just missed her. She must have just jumped out the window. Okay. Set up a 10-block perimeter. Find out if anybody’s reported an intruder. Bring in all patrol units to canvass the apartments, set up a dragnet.

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Sighs ] How you doing, cabrera? We can’t wait for the paramedics. Let’s get him up. Let’s get him to the car. Come here. Give me a hand. Put your legs down, okay, buddy? Come on. Let’s go. All right. Let’s go. You’re good, cabrera. We’re gonna get you help. Dispatch, this is commissioner ashford. We have a dead body in the apartment. Get the medical examiner and csu here now. You know something? Spill. Alexis, we got to be careful with what we do with this information. I’m not supposed to have it. I’m a law– I used to be a lawyer. I know how to keep a secret. So how about we — we don’t do anything with the information unless we both agree? Deal? Deal. Okay. What do you got? Okay. I talked with trina last night, and she was talking with ava. Apparently, jordan is getting outside advice about our serial killer’s profile. From the fbi or a forensic pathologist? From the devil himself — ryan chamberlain.

[ Sighs ] Austin was blackmailing spinelli. Blackmailing him? How? Well, it has to do with society setups. Wait. Spinelli’s algorithm? You know about the algorithm? I think I knew that. Not that it really matters, because whatever illegal things spinelli did, you would not use against him or turn him in or use his genius for your own benefit. No, maxie, of course not. But wait. Austin did? Yeah. He forced spinelli to run us, austin and me, through the algorithm, which is a total violation, because I never signed up for society setups in the first place. Which means whatever data spinelli gathered on me, he got by hacking and breaking through firewalls and — and stuff. Wait, maxie. Spinelli would never use your data against you. No, I know that. I don’t love being hacked, but if there’s anyone I trust to do the hacking, it’s spinelli. I just don’t trust austin. Jordan is consulting with ryan chamberlain? I guess to catch a serial killer, you have to talk with a serial killer. Look, I’m gonna go shower, and we’ll talk somewhere private. Josslyn: You kept surprising me and doing the right thing when I least expected it. Now I’ve disappointed you. Is that it? I’d be lying if I said no. I’m sorry about that. Me too. Not for me, but for you. You know, my mom and jason are incredible people who gave everything they had to sonny, trusting that he would do right by them. Instead, he screwed them both over. And I don’t want you to be one of those people. Can you believe spencer? What, he learned that in pentonville? Leave it to him to ruin his own homecoming. Typical. He got too caught up in his own B.S. That he just didn’t think. He never does. What are you doing here? Uh, grabbing food, wreaking havoc, reaping the consequences. The usual. Hi. Hi. I guess I’m still not used to seeing you around. Yeah. You’re not the only one. Did you know that a new rule was enacted in my absence where friends are forbidden from sticking up for each other?

[ Scoffs lightly ] I mean, that’s a broad reading. Sticking up is allowed as long as it’s welcome. Well, I will be sure to consult you next time before I butt in, ’cause cam is so over me. Well, whatever you did, I’m guessing your heart was in the right place. You’re not the same guy who returned to port charles hell-bent on destroying ava. You mean

this is progress? Now you just have to work on your execution. Well, I will get on it. Hopefully, I will have something to show for it the next time that I’m in town. “Next time”? I’m taking off. Elizabeth and i ended things. It all came apart last night. And I thought I was holding it together for violet’s sake, keeping her from seeing what I was going through. But obviously I did another bang-up job. Your daughter is extremely perceptive. She would have picked up on your pain blindfolded. There never should have been anything for her to pick up on. I should’ve done better. I should’ve done better for her. I should’ve seen what was happening with elizabeth sooner and made different choices, better choices. Your assessment of your actions may be a little skewed in light of recent events. Elizabeth and I were… we were trying to build something together, some idea of a family. But that’s all gone. But violet, she needs that. And how do I take that away from her again? Must you? I know you still love elizabeth. Love doesn’t fade away so fast. It may shrink or be eclipsed by other feelings, but it’s still inside there, waiting to re-emerge, sometimes stronger than before,

if both people want it enough. I appreciate that, dad. I do. But you don’t understand. Elizabeth… elizabeth will make up her own mind. You need to know what’s in your heart. Do you want to salvage your relationship? Dante: We need some help here. Jordan: Injured officer. He’s bleeding heavily. We need a gurney stat! Hey. Let’s get him up. Easy, easy. Lay him down flat. All right. Get some pressure on these wounds. -I got it, I got it. -Rory. What happened? We need the antivenom that saved diane miller after her attack. It was the hook. Okay. You ready to go? You said you heard about this from ava? Yeah. She was at spring ridge. Um, she witnessed the interview. Apparently, the pcpd used her as bait for chamberlain. So he answers jordan’s questions in exchange for ava being present. Remind me to pick up ava’s tab for the next hundred years. Yeah, right. Same here. So, esme was an intern when I was at spring ridge. She said that she was a psych major at pcu to explain her interest in chamberlain. Question — did ryan say anything to jordan to hint at where esme can be found? You know, trina didn’t give me the play-by-play, but she did let something slip that caught my attention — chamberlain believes that esme is not the killer. And we’re gonna take his word for it? Alexis, I have pored over chamberlain’s file. That guy hasn’t lifted a finger in anyone else’s interests except his own. So if he says that esme’s not the killer, it’s because it serves him and not the police. Jordan is onto something, and I do believe there is more to their twisted relationship besides psychopath and psychology student. So what do we do with that information?

[ Cellphone rings ] I do believe we’re about to find out. Hey, jordan. Curtis, I’m trying to reach taggert. Do you know where he is? Uh, he’s traveling.

[ Cellphone chimes ] He’s doing a security consult out of town. Portia should be able to track him down. Portia’s busy. Trina’s at kelly’S. Can you pick up trina and bring her to G.H. Immediately?

What’s wrong? It’s happened again. There’s more to this divorce than what you’re saying. Why don’t you just tell me what it is? You know, maybe we can salvage our marriage. There’s nothing I can say to fix this. Well, give it a shot, will you? I think you owe me that much. I was prepared to cut you loose. Do you remember that? Everybody in my life urged me to move on. Everybody told me that you weren’t good enough for me. Some people said that I was lucky just to survive you, and I was so close to listening to them. But I tuned them out. Just yesterday, I told you that I — that I wanted to try, and you ate it up. And now you’ve changed your mind? I don’t — why?! Because they were right — I’m not worthy. I am still the faithless man today that I was yesterday. I don’t understand this. What is going on? I had an affair with elizabeth.

Austin was so great when I met him. He delivered bailey lou. He got knocked unconscious for his trouble. Then I lied to him about what actually happened for months. And when the truth finally came out, he was kind and understanding. Well, that’s good. Then you got to know the best part of austin. Yeah, and I chose to ignore the not-so-great parts. Like how mean he was to brook lynn. Or how he manipulated poor chase into spying on the quartermaines. He was super apologetic about that. But I-I did choose to push that to the back of my mind. But spinelli never liked austin, and he’s liked him even less the last few weeks. Now I know why. I say poor spinelli. Yeah, because it’s never fun to be blackmailed. Especially not when the blackmailer’s dating the mother of your child. Which brings me around to georgie, who also never liked austin. I thought she was just being difficult. Now I think she might have been right. You and elizabeth? One affair wasn’t enough for you? Show scott the offer and get back to me. How did it happen? When? Where? In the bed we shared together? Or did you and elizabeth rut around in the dirt at the quartermaine picnic? I’m not getting into the details. I have a right to know. It’ll only hurt you. Why stop now? So how did the two of you end up together? I wouldn’t have you, so you came on to elizabeth? Maybe — maybe it was the other way around. Did she catch you in her bottomless pit of need that so many fools are too weak to resist? Don’t talk about her like that.

[ Voice breaking ] What were you getting from elizabeth that you didn’t get from me? My child. Elizabeth is pregnant, ava. She’s having our baby. Widen the perimeter. I want every uniform and detective on this. Yes. Have the uniforms check the dumpsters nearby. Even those not on duty. Maybe the hook left some bloody clothes in one of them or something like that. And, also, we gotta take a closer look at the exotic animal smuggler and his cell records. We need to know who he was talking to, who he was texting, who he was meeting with. Yes. Yes. All that. Thanks. Hi. H– are you okay? Uh, it’s — it’s not mine. It’s officer cabrera’S. Isn’t that trina’s boyfriend? Wait. [ Sighs ] Was it the hook? Was it esme? Detective falconeri, get cleaned up. That’s an order. Okay. Was cabrera attacked by the hook? Here’s my statement — tonight, one of port charles’ finest is fighting for his life after a cowardly and brutal attack. My department will do everything to bring this perpetrator to justice. And I’ll be damned if I lose another one of my own. You can quote me on that.

[ Monitor beeping ] Administer the antivenom. We don’t know for sure it was esme — the person with the hook.

[ Sighs ] We’ve got another bleeder. He needs the antivenom. What if the police are wrong? The antivenom’s in short supply. Just do it. If his wounds don’t kill him, the poison will. You’re taking off? As soon as the terms of my release from prison are met, yeah. Then you’re, like, what, going on vacation? No, “vacation” implies a return home, and port charles no longer qualifies. But your family lives here, your friends. So do all the people who look at me like I’m dirt. Do those people have more power over you than the ones who care about you? Those people are few and far between, trina. You’re wrong. And if you’d just open your eyes, you’d see. See what? See who? My eyes are open, which is how I know to look down whenever I encounter someone who I have disappointed. So I’m gonna move on, and I’m going to disappoint strangers.

[ Chuckles ] That’s not funny. That’s sad. Maybe. But it is true. And I am certainly not going to get what I want here. And what’s that? To know how it feels… when you matter so much to someone that it hurts them when you’re gone. I’ve got the reverse down pat. I know all about hurt. Just not the part when it’s returned. Trina. Curtis. Spencer: What’s going on? I think joss and cam should hear this, too. I say that we go to a nice place, just the two of us. -First, we should talk. -Cameron. Josslyn. You, trina, and spencer need to come with me to G.H. Right away. Trina: Why? Police commissioner’s orders. She wants you where she can keep eyes on you. And it’s probably best that you’re under police protection. Okay. What happened? There’s been another attack. Who? Trina, I’m sorry. It’s rory.

What is wrong with me? I burn my life down with peter, and then I turn right around and jump into a relationship with someone who blackmails people. Wait, hold on. Austin is absolutely wrong for blackmailing spinelli, but he is not in the same league as peter. But my mistake was the same. With peter, I chose to ignore the red flags and see what I wanted to see. Austin — not a psycho. Thank god. But not who he pretended to be. Okay. And when did you get confirmation of that? I told you — this just happened. And what did you do? I told austin he wasn’t who I thought he was, and I walked out. And what are you doing now? I’m venting to a friend. Exactly. You’re not in denial. You’re just following your instincts. You’re taking a step back to re-evaluate, to be fair to yourself and to austin, to consider what you want, what you don’t want, what you like, and what you don’t like. Then you can act accordingly. Okay. I can do that. I know you can. Hey, at least my life’s not up in flames. That’s progress. My foot’s stuck. Hey — oh — I’d like to think you’re concerned about me, but it’s just another excuse for you to hate on sonny. I don’t need an excuse. And it’s a waste of energy to tell you anything different when this is what you want to do. You have no idea what I want. Then why don’t you tell me? You know how to surf? Yeah, my dad’s australian. I didn’t really have a choice. Is it hard to learn? Um, I don’t remember learning. I kind of just always knew how. You think you could teach someone? Uh, well, that depends. On what? On who wants to learn. I need you to sit up and drink this for me, okay?

[ Groans ] Or you’re gonna need my help. All right. Come here. Sit up. Damn. What? All of this, it wasn’t supposed to happen.

[ Chuckles ] Well, it did. Thank you for the coffee. Can you give me an update on cabrera’s condition? All I know is, they’ve got him in the trauma room, and he’s bleeding heavily. Mm. You know, jordan’s tight-lipped. She won’t say anything. How’d you hear about the attack? Because I was there when — when curtis got the call from jordan. And jordan sent curtis looking for trina, which suggests to me that this has something to do with the hook. When the police arrived, they called for antivenom. Venom? We both know where that’s been mentioned recently. The killer’s letter. You’re bringing a child into this? You’re subjecting a child to your misadventures with victor and esme? I never meant for this to happen, ava. The sex was a mistake. The baby is not. I couldn’t make this unhappen even if I wanted to. And I don’T. I have to take care of that baby. I have to do right. I got to protect it from victor and esme or anything that can harm it, or anyone who would try to use this baby for their own advantage. I — just, I can’t fail another child. You may not understand any of this. But you must understand that much, don’t you? Keep me posted. Dante: Any news? Mac is on site. Okay. I’ll go see if he needs some help. No, dante, I need you here. Why? I’m not doing anything here. I’ll be much more useful out in the field. You need to be here. You need to see this through — not only for your sake, but, more importantly, for officer cabrera’S. How’s rory? Is he okay? I don’t know. The doctors are working on him now.

[ Sighs ]

[ Door closes ] Nikolas: Please, just take my offer. What’s the alternative — war? I mean, just, what else is there to —

That’s what I think of your offer. You could have killed me. Remember that. Go on. Go be with elizabeth. Be a daddy. Good luck with your do-over. I’m sorry. I… never wanted to hurt you. I hate this. Mm, you don’t know what hate is. Maybe I’ll teach you. It doesn’t have to be like this. That’s true. It could be far, far worse. And who knows? Maybe it will be yet. God have mercy on you, nikolas. You’ll get none from me. Mom.

[ Voice breaking ] Please tell me rory’s gonna be okay. He’s lost a lot of blood, honey, and he’s bleeding internally. And his treatment’s based off of dante’s accounts of what happened.

[ Crying ] Can I see him? Honey, he’s very weak right now. Okay? He’s incoherent.

[ Monitor beeping ] Rory! Rory! Rory, rory, rory!

[ Crying ] Oh, my god. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry, rory.

[ Weakly ] It was… too soon… to tell you how I feel. But… I’m not sorry. When you know, you know. Rory. Rory, rory! Rory! Rory, rory. Please. No, rory. Rory, rory. Please, rory.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Tate, where do you see this resort in Aspen, buddy? It is amazing. Yeah. You know, first of all, first of all, it has a lobby where you can basically ski right into, and then you can, you can go into this hot tub, which is about the size of a lake. Yeah. . It’s this.

You know what, buddy? I’m, I’m gonna have to, uh, I’m gonna have to call you back. Yeah. Okay. I love you too. Bye.

What are you doing? What does it look like? We’re under a missile toe. I am sure you remember what that means.

Well, are you just gonna stand there golfing or are you gonna explain what you’re doing at my apartment? I could ask you the same thing.

Your grandma Susan was one of a kind. She loved you very much.

Yeah. It feels like just, uh, yesterday she was here with us enjoying Halloween. Now it’s almost Christmas. God, I just, uh, I can’t believe she’s gone.

She sure is a beauty. Yeah. With enough power to take out half the church. And it’s all for EJ Damara. Hmm. When he shows up, it’s Susan’s funeral. He’s gonna be the one resting in

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

You constructed a paper missile toe. Just so you could hold it over my head. No. Rachel made it an art class. I think it’s pretty good. She was hoping, uh, we would hang it together. Kristen, I think, no, listen, Kristen, what? You know how I feel about you encouraging her fantasies about us getting together? No, darling.

I am encouraging her creativity. Yeah, well, maybe you should do an art project based on the plant that helped save Marlene’s life since that’s the only reason why you’re staying. Well, you know what? You, you, you don’t have to continue to remind me. Where are you going? Today is Susan’s memorial and I wanted to be there for my brother.

You can’t be serious what you, I’m pretty sure that EJ doesn’t want you anywhere near that. Look, I am well aware of my brother’s feelings toward me, Brady, but, um, don’t worry about it. I have a plan. Oh, you saying that you have a plan is supposed to make me not worry. No, we’ll see. See,

yeah. What could possibly go wrong?

Ava took so much from us. I, I trusted her. I cared, I cared for her. I, I had no idea how damaged she was. I mean, that she’s capable of kidnapping grandma, driving them off the road, killing ’em in the process, even though I didn’t think she would go that far. But I saw her in my own eyes. Yeah. That must have been horrible for you.

I thought it was the last time I would see either one of them until I saw a Thanksgiving.

What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you’re having second thoughts about blowing EJ to kingdom. Come. Of course not. Then what is it? I was just thinking how great would it be if all of my other enemies could get what was coming to them too? Starting with Nicole Walker that you find me. Well, when Roman told me you didn’t come home last night, I had a pretty good idea of where you might be.

So you what? Started knocking on random doors? No, honey. I used to be a reporter. It took me about 10 seconds to track down your address. Wow. Stalker lunch.

Well, excuse me, I don’t remember inviting you in. Seriously, you’re sleeping with her. I am. What’s it to you?

There you turn. Hey, I am please. My feet are killing me, sir. Tell me all about it, sir. Couldn’t sit down. How did you think? Ow. Well, I did pretty well. I got that. Camera, drone that Johnny’s been watching. That’s good. That’s good. Let’s hope he makes a safer choice for his next movie. How about Holly? I found some troll dolls that she wanted.

I don’t know if we’re gonna be seeing much of her over Christmas, because you know Eric, Nicole. Yeah. Yeah. We’ll just have to drop that off. And Nicole’s this afternoon then. Mm-hmm. . So don’t you have any luck finding something for little Rachel? I did what? I got her a junior marine biology kit. Ah, good job.

You know Brady said she’s really into Wales right now. Yeah. But we both know we can’t deliver her what she really wants for Christmas. Mom and dad back together.

Just what sort of voodoo is this? I’m sorry, what? This style is evil. And is this right here? Dear Lord, I came just in time. Yeah? Yeah. Nice try. Kristin.

You are unbelievable. He’s unbelievable. You’re the one that’s sculpting around town trying to catch him in bed with other women. You stay out of this. Hello? You are standing in the middle of my apartment. I’m in it. Will you give us a minute? It won’t take very long, I promise. Fine. We have to get dressed anyway.

What is wrong with you? Nothing. Nothing. About five minutes ago we were planning our future together and now you’re starting drunken bar fights and hooking up with a trashy lawyer who you spent. How dare you judge me for sleeping with Sloan. You’re hooking up with EJ Tamira.

See? So you’re saying you saw Avon Thanksgiving. How is that possible? I had a lot to drink and I ended up at the crash site. She, she was taunting me, tormenting me, but it was. It was real. Tony and Chad showed up and Abra disappeared. So no, no, it, it wasn’t real likely a toxic combination of too much booze and even more guilt.

Ironic, isn’t it? In death. Ava made me feel as crazy as she was. Dad, I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

Thank you for saying that son. More importantly, for being here with me. Look, I just hope that you know, maybe Bla and Grandma Susan to rest will bring you some kind of peace.

So Nicole destroyed your life to be with Rafe, and then she just moved on. I could never happened. And from what I hear, she made a pit stop with Eric Brady in. She moves fast. Mm. And her and EJ are a couple. Well, she’s living at his house. What do you think? I think you’re absolutely right. A person like that needs to get her comeuppance.

I am so glad you agree because the good news is she will most likely be accompanying EJ to the funeral, which means, which means have to kill two birds with one bomb.

You know, doc, this is, it’s gotta be really confusing for little Rachel. I mean, she has her, her parents living in the same house, but not together. Well, we know that Brady moved Kristen in under duress. I, I just wonder why. The only thing I know for sure is that. Rachel was doing a hell a lot better when Kristen was gone.

We all were. That is why we not only have to get Kristen out of our house, but out of Brady’s life for good.

I may have an idea. Christian Dara. Oh, how dare you. Confused me with that godless rich. Now where is your stepmom? My stepmom, you mean Marlena? Yes. I came to see Dr. Marlena Evans in ahead of my dearly departed sister’s funeral. All I found was screaming Light meers Uhhuh . Yeah. I knew you were good at this, but I gotta say this, this oof.

This is good. It’s pretty convincing. I thank you. Pardon? Is, was this really your plan? You’re gonna go to Susan’s Funeral Justice, her sister, the NUN plan? The only plan that I subscribe to is God’s Divine Plan Plane. Okay. All right. All right, sister. Right. I did not know what you are imply. I am not pretending to be Susan’s sister.

I am her sister. Right. You know, this is never gonna work. I mean, what, what if the real sister Mary Mora shows up? Whatcha are you gonna do Sister Mary mo’s? Okay. Okay. You know what if, if your sister, Mary Mora, you think she would be okay with something like this, I.

You have one of those for your sister, Kristen? Yeah, the one and only take this one. I’ll make another that’s,

thank you for that. You can thank me by leaving this. What the hell are you doing here, Kristen? Where else would I be to say goodbye to Susan? I wanna be there for your mother, for you at the funeral. Over my dead buddy.

How many times do I have to say it? EJ and I are not sleeping with each other. Right? Holly and I needed a place to stay and EJ offered. Yeah, what’s very generous of him? It’s just temporary. Eric. Well, maybe you should be spending your time searching for apartments rather than keeping track of me. I’m worried about you.

You’re worried about me. Were you that worried when you encouraged Jada to deport my baby? Is that while you’re flushing your life down the drain, because Jada made a choice, not me. I mean, do, do you even hear me? Jada made that choice, not me. I’m making choices. Too. Bad choices. Yeah. I wonder why, you know, one minute I thought we were gonna be together and then the next minute we weren’t.

Or I was about to be a father and then I wasn’t. It’s been rough for you. Who the hell hasn’t it been rough for? But you’re, you’re, you’re drowning in self-pity. This is not who you are. Who the hell am I? Nicole? You’re a good person who’s loved and, and, and respected. Yeah. Who’s getting walked all over.

That is not true. You know what I realize now people like you and my sister Sammy, why you enjoy being so selfish and sabotaging Because you do what you want without worrying about any consequences. You know what I understand because it, there’s kind of a little bit of a rush to it. I mean, who wants to be the good twin?

And there’s so much more fun in being a bad twin.

Is someone reminiscing over her near Adventures in cradle robbing. Johnny was kind to me when EJ was declaring war, and Gabby was trying to manipulate me. Johnny was on my side.

Maybe things would’ve been different if I just let him into my life.

Sorry, mom. You may have been little Johnny’s Cougar fantasy at one point, but now you’re just the crazy lady who killed his grandmother go away. You don’t really want that. Yes, I do. Look, I appreciate you helping me with my plan, but I can do this on my own. I don’t need you here. Okay. I’ll scream. But remember, I’m always with you.

Uh, excuse me, miss.

Uh, I’m Susan’s grandson Johnny, are you a friend of hers?

Ah, listen, we’re, we’re not quite ready yet. Maybe you wanna wait outside.

Miss this.

Whoa. How dare you press your unclean lip against the flesh of one of Christ’s sacred brides? Wait a minute. What? Whoa. Wait. You were welcomed. You welcomed Satan into your heart and into your home. Oh God. Oh God. I know you’re taking his name in favor. No, no, no. Listen, I’m sorry. You’re the real sister. Mary got this.

I’m trying to. You walked into this room? No. What is room with your child apparently allowed. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. No, Mr. Sister. I’m I I didn’t mean mistake. Cut was Total mistake. No, doesnt cut in. Mister. What are you talking about? What? Something been done? You a long time. Ow, ow. What you doing?

What? Hey, hey. Stop it. We stop. I know you’ve hated me ever since I cited with Gabby on the Dera vote. This has nothing to do with business. Then why are you being so hostile? Why am I being so hostile? Yes. Do you not remember how you treated my mother when she was. Oh, come on. I, I admit that Susan and I didn’t always get along.

You tried to take me away from her when I was a baby. Yes, but we got past that years ago. No, no, you got past it. My mother never did. She was forever traumatized by what you and father put her through. And this whole, it’s all about family act isn’t going to work this time. You don’t give a damn about me or my mother.

And you are the last. As she would want at her funeral, so get the hell out and let me grieve in peace.

Oh, great. You’re still here. Nicole is just leaving. Does she know that? Well, enjoy your afternoon delight. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

You sure you don’t wanna go after her? Nope.

Are you okay? I’m good. Nothing to worry about. I’m glad to hear that

Nicole did make one solid point though. We still have time for love in the afternoon before I have to be at court. How’s that sound?

You’re thinking

you want me to get close to Kristin?

Come on, doc. I think you remember that. I tried that once before and it didn’t work out that well. You know, my power’s a seduction man. No, no, no. I don’t want you to seduce her. Well then what are you talking to your friend, you know, play on the, the long history that you’ve had. Remind her that she can still trust you.

You think she’d buy. Well, her family has forsaken. Her friend is in, in prison. I, I just think, uh, she’d be looking for someone in whom she could confide about now

and why not her old pal, John Black. Huh? Could work. And once she’s vulnerable enough, I should be able to get her to tell me what she’s holding over. Brady’s head. I, there you have Got it. , when you use your mastery psychology to hatch a scheme, no, no, no. It’s not a scheme. This is just plain good parenting.

Oh man. Okay. Doctor, where do we start? I think I’ve got a way that. Persuade Kristen to let down her card

more. I think about it the more I like this plan of yours. , I thought you might

Yes, but where are you going? Well, if we’re gonna get Kristen out of our house, we gotta start right now. Wait. What about Susan’s memorial? You pay respects for both of us. Susan, of all people would understand how desperate we are to save our son and granddaughter from Kristen D.

He looked like he had a even worse day than I did. Yeah, you can pretty much bet on that. I thought you were going to the funeral. Let’s just say EJ wasn’t interested in my comfort today or any other day for that matter, who I tried to warn you about that so much for family. What happened to your hand? I had a little visit from, uh, Susan’s sister, the nun.

Sister Mary Mork was here. Yeah. Yeah. She let herself in when I came around the corner and I found her. I, uh, I kind of jumped to the wrong conclusion because you were telling me that you had this plan to go to the funeral today. Oh, you. Thought it was me in disguise. I had every reason to. Yeah, I mean, it was something that you would do, so, yeah, I did think that.

And so when she finally convinced me of the truth that it was her, it was a little bit too late. Okay. Too late for what? Freddie, what did you do? I tried to call your bluff, Kristen. All right. I took the, uh, the paper missile toe that Rachel had made. Oh my God. You didn’t? And I held it over her head. Oh God.

And I gave her a giant kiss you made out with, I made out with a nun today. I thought it was you

Don. You know, it’s not that funny. It’s not that funny. Okay. Yeah, you’re right. It’s not funny. You’re right. No, it’s not. It’s, it’s, I mean, it’s even funnier. . Okay. That’s okay. Okay. Hold on, prince. So, uh, what did she do? Uh, did she freak out? ? I was looking, I was the fucking freak out. Oh my God. It’s, she’s a nut.

I’m kissing her . She could, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I mean, it wasn’t funny. You should have seen the look on her face. No, I, I would’ve rather seen the look on her face. We were both freaked out. I know

God.

You know what? What? Oh, I’m good. I’m good. You know, I’m gonna stop. I’m just gonna stop right now because I really need to ask you a question. Romeo. What? So if it had been that nun’s habit and you planted that kiss, what would happen next?

Is everything all right? I just found Eric with his slut lawyer, Sloan Peterson. They were alone in her apartment wearing only towels. I see. Are they together now? Well, at least for one night. Eric Brady had a one night stand. Who knew he had it in him? . Oh, I’m glad you find this amusing. I’m, I’m sorry. I know you still love him, but doesn’t this prove how beneath you, the former Father Brady truly is.

He’s troubled, and I shouldn’t be dumping this on you, especially not today. It’s, it’s fine. I’d much rather share a drink with you than my last visitor. Oh, who was it? Kristen showed up wanting to accompany me to my mother’s funeral. That was nice of her. Nice. The woman spent decades tormenting my poor mother.

Yeah. Well, being on the receiving end of Kristen’s malice, I can understand why you wouldn’t want her to come to the service. And yet she was the only one of my siblings who was available. Your brothers aren’t coming. Tony Nana are visiting Carrie and her family for the holidays. Stefan is dealing with a supply chain crisis at the mirror, and Chad, the poor man, is still grieving Abigail.

I couldn’t put him through another funeral so soon, so it. Me and Johnny. I don’t even know where he and I stand these days. Thomas. Well,

maybe I can go with you.

Dear Zone in heaven, what has now forsaken? We have enough. Very good. And for I’m Mary Mor, so. Is everything all right? Oh, is it you, Roman ? Yeah. It’s, uh, it’s me. Thank the Lord about how you’ve grown. It’s good to see you. Thank you. How long has it been my dear? Great nephew, uh, would’ve been in Italy, was the last time we were together.

You were visiting us while my dad was recovering from his accident. Mm-hmm. ? Yes, yes, yes. Huh? Elvis when he roses from the dead, like Lazarus himself. Hey, you, uh, you seem pretty upset. I, I, I can’t even imagine how hard this must be for you. Oh, it’s just too awful to talk about. I know, I know. The, uh, my, uh, grandma Susan’s death is, well, it’s a tragedy, so I.

I’m not talking about my sweet sister’s death. I am referring to your uncle, the Heathen Brady Black uncle, uncle Brady. What? What, what? What about him? He was just, oh, he was overtake by his car. Urges. What? She kissed me.

Oh boy. Uncle Brady kissed you. He tasted coffee and shin. Oh, you hold that disturbing thought for just one minute, please. I’d rather not. Let’s just, there, there was a, there’s a woman right here a minute ago. Where is she?

I think you’re gonna need another shower.

Wanna conserve water and shower with a friend? As nice as that sounds. I have to go in my brother soon. You no fun. Really? Mm. Okay. Fun. Actually, you’re a lot of fun. But if you’re in a hurry, then you can go alone. Hey, will you want to go first? No, you go. Never let it be sad that I’m not an accommodating host.

I would never say that.

If you wanna come back tonight, we can pick up where we left off. I may take you up on that.

Let’s just do a thought experiment, shall. What if it’s me and the nuns have it and you hold up the missile toe and you put your lips on mine and I respond. What are you asking Chris? I’m just curious. I’m just curious. I mean, because the history is that, uh, I kiss, it really just stops at a kiss. Chris?

Mm-hmm. take, you know what I remember, there were times and we’d be at that door and we’d be kissing each other goodbye, and then all of a, we’d start taping each other’s clothes off, and then we would just go straight back to our bedroom. I mean, that is, we made it that far.

Hey, hey, why do you keep fighting this? Know that it’s still there. Us. You wanna stop? Stop. I know that you as much

Oh, oh boy. Hey dad. Hey son. Why don’t you get a meeting with your I do, I do. I have a meeting. Thanks for reminding me I’m late. I better go.

So, so, so. Looks like it’s just the two of us.

Thank you for your offer. It means a lot, but do you really want to risk being seen with me in public again? Am I get a few more tongues wagging?

I don’t care about. You did before you agreed to move in? Yes, I did. But it doesn’t matter anymore. Ej, you are my friend and I wanna be there for you.

Well, in that case, we better get ready. Uh, I’ll, I’ll go change. Nicole. Yeah. Thank you

Grandma darling. How are you? You, you seem a little distracted. Oh yeah. I was just, uh, I was looking for, Woman. What woman? I don’t know. She, she was in the chapel and, uh, she was looking at pictures, but I, and I, I tried to talk to her. She wouldn’t turn around. Well, that seems a bit odd. Yeah. I don’t know. And then I, I just, I, I, I, I, I turned away for a moment.

She was gone. Hmm. So you, you didn’t Oh, see her face. No, I, I, she was wearing some big hat and I just, I don’t know if she was weird vibes. I just wanted to make sure she was okay. I am sure she’s okay, honey. You know, people deal with grief in different ways, that’s all. Yeah. Yeah. You’re probably right. I’m sure it’s fine.

I think we should go inside. Are you ready? Yeah, I’ll, I’ll be right behind. Okay.

Sister Mary Myra. Oh, Dr. It’s good to see you. You as well. John asked me to let you know he was sorry that he couldn’t be here today. Well, he isn’t the one who should be expressing remorse. This ate son of his who needs to. Brady. Ooh, just his name since she was down Mafa. Why? What did Brady do? Oh, I to say this.

I came to see you and he’s dead. Your stepson ravished me.

Hey. Hey, thanks for coming to see me. Sure. Sounds like we got a lot to talk about. What do you mean? Is it true that you were arrested, spent a night in jail? Great news travels fast than seeing them. Yeah. What’s going on with you, man? What? What? I mean? Well, besides me being worried about you, Eric, I mean, you missed a whole day of work.

All right. I’m sorry about that. No, no. I mean, I had to reschedule the entire summer swimsuit. You know, we had to rebook all the models. Look, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry about that. You, you, sorry. You know what? It cost me a lot of money, man. If you weren’t my brother, I’d probably have to fire you. All right.

I’ll save you the trouble. I quit.

Are you, are you saying that Brady. Kissed you in a romantic way? Oh, there’s nothing romantic about it. No. He stuck his fort for a tongue down my merchant throat.

That’s an image I have been praying ever since. Oh, I don’t understand why Brady would do that. He claimed that he thought I was the evil Christian. Well, he thought he was kissing Kristen. I don’t know. I don’t care. That horrible woman has corrupted his mortal soul, which is why you and John Black should have done a better job of keeping your boy away from that.

She deal. Well, we’re working on that.

Beer. Yeah, thanks. Why aren’t you at, uh, Susan’s memorial service with Marlena? Long story. Hmm. Well, I got time,

uh,

duck and I route Christmas shopping, and we kind of got into a dispute. Salem’s greatest lovers. You, I should alert the intruder, eh? It’s more like just a, I don’t know, difference of opinion. All right. What could you two possibly have to fight about? Hmm. Oh, let me guess. should be up at Christmas. Gifts on Christmas Eve.

On Christmas morning.

Actually,

we were fighting about you.

I’m so sorry. Thank you for being here. Of course, she was a friend. I’ll miss her. Thank you.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go say hi to my aunt. Course.

Hello, Nicole. Marlena. I’m sorry about what happened between you and Eric. Thank you. But I, I think you should check on him. He’s going through some things, of course. Uh, You were here with EJ as friends. His brothers couldn’t make it, so I thought I’d show support. Well, that was kind of you.

Lovely arrangement. I wonder who they’re from. They’re from Samantha. Oh, that was very thoughtful of her. Are we ready to begin? Oh yes. Father, uh, no. Is there a problem? We can’t start the funeral yet. Johnny isn’t here. Well, I just saw him earlier. Yeah, I, I, I saw him outside. He said he’d be, Where between Heaven inhale could therefore be,

All: Hi.

Finn: We, uh, ran into each other on the elevator.

Hope: Oh, uh, well I think it’s good you’re both here.

Liam: Yeah, why? To referee?

Steffy: No, actually. Hope and I were having a fairly civilized conversation.

Liam: Why? What happened?

Steffy: My father is coming back home.

Liam: Oh, wait. So ridge is on his way home now?

Steffy: Yeah.

Finn: He must have made his decision. Either he’s gonna spend his future with taylor or with brooke.

Hope: I think we all know what direction this is headed in.

Steffy: I can see it now. My parents married, living blissfully at the beach house.

Hope: I know that’s what you want to have happen, steffy.

Steffy: That’s what’s gonna happen.

Liam: Well, okay, to be fair, the only reason ridge and brooke broke up in the first place was because of thomas’ whole stupid scheme with the fix–

Steffy: I admit, what my brother did was reckless, and I do feel bad for brooke, but it doesn’t erase the bond my parents created.

Hope: Even though a big part of it is based on a lie?

Finn: No. Ridge made it very clear that the cps call had no bearing on him wanting to marry taylor.

Liam: Yeah, true, but he didn’t go through with the wedding, so.

Steffy: Okay, part of me does wish I didn’t say anything and I let my mom tell my father about thomas after the ceremony. They still would be together right now.

Ridge: Did anything happen while I was gone?

Taylor: Well, I–

Charlie: And there he is. The big cheese. The grand fromage. Welcome back to los angeles, oh, exalted one. Get the sense that my timing is a little bad here. I’ll uh, circle back later.

Taylor: Alrighty. So, um, where were we?

Brooke: Well, um, we were wondering if ridge really does feel remorseful.

Taylor: Oh, that’s right.

Ridge: I do. I’m, uh– I’m more sorry than I could say. I’m trying to explain to you–

Taylor: We are not here to listen to your explanations or your apologies, so.

Brooke: No. You are here to listen to us.

Taylor: Yeah. To actually hear us. You’ve put us through a lot.

Steffy: It’s complicated things have been ratherkies last night.

Hope: Well, at least the kids seem unaware of all the concern. They had a blast decorating cookies last night.

Steffy: Yeah, they did. Kelly’s finalizing her list for santa, singing songs. I mean, it does feel normal at times.

Finn: It’s nice considering things have been rather unpredictable lately.

Liam: That’s the understatement of the decade. Somehow, I didn’t have sheila coming back from the dead on my bingo card.

Steffy: It’s complicated enough.

Hope: Yeah. And then we had thomas faking that cps call, trying to ruin my mom’s marriage.

Liam: See, that right there, I’ve given up on trying to predict everybody’s next move.

Steffy: Same, but I do have my suspicions.

Hope: Steffy, we all know you want your parents to ride off into the sunset together.

Steffy: I do.

Hope: Okay, just… you know, ridge has let you down before. That’s all I’m saying.

Finn: To be fair, we just need to wait it out.

Liam: We all know that you both want what’s best for your mothers.

Hope: Yeah, but at this point, it’s almost a guarantee that one of our moms is going to get her heart broken.

Steffy: Well, we do know how much brooke wants this to work out in her favor. I’m predicting a meltdown.

Charlie: Hi, everybody. And what a handsome group you are too.

Liam: Hey, charlie. How’ve you been, man?

Charlie: Well, I’ve been good. I, uh, don’t mean to interrupt, but I have some breaking news that you might want to hear.

Steffy: Is– is this about the raffle prizes for pam’s bake off because we really don’t need to hear that right now.

Charlie: No, it’s about– it’s about your right hand man. You’re co-compadre?

Steffy: What?

Charlie: Your dad. He’s back.

Steffy: Charlie, I know. Yeah, he’s coming home.

Charlie: N– no, no, no. I mean he’s back, back, back. He– ridge is on the premises.

Hope: Already?

Charlie: Yeah. He’s in the office de grand fromage having a tete-a-tete-a-tete.

Hope: So, who’s he with?

Steffy and hope: My mom?

Charlie: Affirmative. And affirmative.

Steffy: What do you mean, charlie? Is my father with my mom?

Hope: Or with mine?

Charlie: Well, ridge is with taylor.

Steffy: Oh, thank god.

Charlie: And brooke.

Hope: Wait, so ridge is with both of them?

Brooke: Taylor and i have been talking.

Ridge: You’ve been talking. Well that’s– that’s good.

Taylor: Is it good? Is it?

Ridge: Yes, it’s good. I’ve always said that you– you guys should talk to each other. You have a lot in common. You have a lot of– a lot of things to talk about, see eye to eye on a few things, right? Why not?

Taylor: Yeah, well we definitely see eye to eye on a few things now.

Brooke: Yup, yup. We have a lot more in common than we even realized.

Ridge: I’ve always been saying that.

Brooke: We’re mothers and we have successful careers and we’ve been waiting for the same man most of our adult life. So, did you… process any of your thinking?

Taylor: Well, I’m thinking he did because he went away to process and gain a new perspective, you know.

Brooke: Of course. And you went away too.

Taylor: I did too. I went away also. I went away to do the same thing and I kind of wanted to stay away, you know, like I’ve done in the past, but then I realized, I want to stay in los angeles.

Ridge: I’m not sure what you guys are doing here, but um, glad you’re back. For the kids.

Taylor: For the kids. For the kids, yup. That’s what this is all about. Yeah. Speaking of our kids, I should’ve told you what thomas did before the ceremony started, I know. But man, I was– I was thrown off balance. I… I kept thinking about all of the promises that you had made me in aspen. Your commitment to me, to our kids. I just… I wanted to believe you. I did believe you. I– I… I took you at your word. But I do want you to know that uh, the time we spent together was um… magic.

Brooke: And I want you to know that, uh, you’ve always been the love of my life, and you still are.

Taylor: You know, I’ve never known you as anything but a– but a wonderful man, a loving father. My heart… yeah.

Brooke: I feel the same way every breath that I’ve taken, every heartbeat has all been for you.

Taylor: My best friend.

Brooke: My destiny. But you can’t have both of us, ridge.

Ridge: I know. And I went away because I… I know I can only be with one of you.

Taylor: No.

Brooke: You can’T.

Liam: So, the three of them are together right now? Ridge, brooke and taylor. In one room.

Hope: Mm-hm.

Liam: Cool.

Hope: Yeah. Sounds pretty intense. I wonder what they’re talking about.

Finn: Well, whatever ridge does, whomever he chooses, I hope he lets the other one down gently.

Steffy: Yeah, my father’s not gonna be a jerk about it.

Hope: But it’s not really fair it’s up to him. I mean, he’s kind of… he has their future in his hands.

Steffy: I’m sure he’s not enjoying this. He’s not going to take it lightly.

Liam: Like we had to witness brooke suffering first hand when she thought it was like, over over and I– I– I do not want to watch her go through that again.

Hope: Yeah, I don’t think she’ll be the one hurting.

Steffy: You haven’t seen my parents together. The love they have between each other, the joy.

Hope: We could say the same thing about ridge and my mom. I mean, I grew up with it. I’ve heard all the stories, you know, about how they first met, my mom catering at the forrester estate. How they locked eyes from across the room and it was love at first sight, but I do have to say, I think that love is going strong.

Brooke: As much as I adore you, ridge, when you left me in aspen–

Ridge: I left you in aspen because I thought you betrayed me, my son and my family.

Brooke: I know. You told me you thought it was my voice, but it wasn’T. It was thomas! But the thing that really gets me is that you didn’t talk to me about it. You didn’t open up, and if you did, we could’ve handled it right then and there. Instead, you ran off to aspen, I followed you there, you walked away from me, I had no idea what was going on. I thought I did something. I mean, oh, my god! Who does that? What kind of man runs to taylor, to propose to her, all the while, he’s still married to me?

Ridge: I’m sorry I hurt you.

Taylor: You hurt both of us, ridge. I didn’t know any of this. Nothing. You came chasing after me, like literally chased me. You chased me up a mountain. Because I was running away from you, and I told you to leave. But you didn’T. You stayed. You stayed me and you convinced me and you pleaded with me and you told me that this time was different. Out of all the other times, this time was different because– because you had seen the light. And you knew what you wanted and that was me. For always. And then you promised me that you would… keep my heart safe. And I bought it. I bought it! And then what happens? We get engaged. And then, what did you do at the wedding? What– what happened at the wedding?

Ridge: What did I do or what happened?

Taylor: Both.

Ridge: Steffy objected.

Taylor: Oh okay, so that’s– that’s what you’re going to say to everything I just said. Sure, steffy objected. She knew that thomas had made that cps call on himself and she also knew how important it was to not start a marriage on a lie. And here’s what I was thinking. The same thing because if what you promised me in aspen was the truth, we would’ve gotten married regardless. But we didn’T. You walked away. You left me there with my heart shattered. Again. You lied! Why? This is wrong, ridge. Everything, everything you have done is wrong! God!

Brooke: Taylor’s right. What’s the #1 retinol brand brooke

Hope: Well then, you should

Steffy: Look, I know all about brooke and my father’s romantic history. Who doesn’t?

Hope: Well then, you should understand why a bond like that isn’t easily broken.

Steffy: I’m not clueless. I know on some level that my father will always love brooke. I just don’t want her to continue to be obsessed over him. Brooke was with my father for many, many years and now, it’s time for my father to be with my mother.

Hope: So now taylor gets a turn? Steffy, this is not how this should work.

Steffy: Look. Obviously, our mothers are fighting over the same man, and that man happens to be my father. You think that brooke needs my father and I think my mom does.

Taylor: We don’t need you, ridge.

Brooke: No. We are not weak women.

Ridge: I never said that you’re weak women. You are strong, independent women.

Taylor: You have no idea how strong we’ve had to be.

Brooke: We have been stuck in this same cycle for decades.

Taylor: For decades! You’ve had it good though. You have two families. One with me, one with brooke. You love two women. Lucky guy.

Brooke: But you can’t have two women. I mean, we both love you, ridge, but…

Ridge: But what?

Taylor: But we’re tired and exhausted, actually.

Brooke: Yes. We are better than this.

Taylor: We’re done fighting.

Brooke: We deserve to be happy.

Ridge: I agree. I always agreed with that.

Brooke: Good. Glad you agree.

Taylor: Mm-hm.

Brooke: Because taylor and I, we’ve made a decision. And we choose us.

Taylor: Yes. We choose ourselves. Our dignity, our self-respect. We’re done.

Brooke: We are done.

Taylor: We’re done.

Brooke: We are.

[ Both chuckling ]

Taylor: Goodbye, ridge.

Brooke: Goodbye. Come on, taylor.

Taylor: Yeah. Oh, one minute.

General Hospital Updates

Update written by Dustin

At Spring Ridge, Ryan informed Heather that he knew she had left town while carrying their child. She didn’t even try to hide it and arrogantly insisted that she had gone to such great lengths to hide her from him that he would never find her. Heather was left completely dumbfounded when Ryan told her that she had been coming to visit him for quite some time. Heather then got very serious and said that it wouldn’t have been possible for either of them to have been parents. Ryan was certain that Heather had known that Esme had an internship at Spring Ridge. He explained that she had found him with something of his that had belonged to a former girlfriend. He admitted that he had always wondered what had happened to his “special chain of keepsakes.” Heather admitted that she had stolen it, and Ryan was visibly irritated. He declared that he would hold Heather responsible if anything landed in the wrong hands. Heather asked if that was a threat. Heather insisted that she had kept it in mostly good shape. Heather told Ryan that she had been wearing the chain on the day she gave their baby up for adoption. Supposedly, The baby had grabbed the chain, and the keepsakes had scattered all over the ground. Heather had thought that she had retrieved all of them. Ryan stated that Esme had used the keepsakes to find him. Heather wanted to hear all about their daughter.

Heather added that she had wanted to protect Esme because the world was full of terrible people like Heather. Ryan spoke about a strong young woman and shared that he and Esme had a special relationship, but he confided that she had been missing for quite some time. He revealed that Ava had thrown Esme over the parapet at Wyndemere although he knew she had survived that incident. He assumed that Esme wasn’t able to contact him right now because she was wanted by the police. “We will make them pay,” Ryan said about the Cassadine clan. Heather noted that Ryan wouldn’t be able to do much from his wheelchair, when he suddenly stood up. “People tend to underestimate me,” he said. Heather smiled broadly and rushed to Ryan’s arms. She was delighted, and she wondered what else Ryan might be able to do. They agreed that they had to find out what had happened to Esme and punish those responsible.

At Wyndemere, Nikolas showed up in Esme’s room to grant her a wish. She was happy that she might go outside to chop down a tree, but Demetrius carried a pint-sized tree into her room. She was angry, but Nikolas acknowledged that he would never allow her to go out to run away. He reminded her that she was nothing more than a vessel until their child was delivered.

Downstairs, Spencer was searching through every liquor cabinet in the place looking for an assortment of alcohol to dull the pain of being brutally rebuffed by Trina. He continued to drink until Nikolas appeared. Spencer announced that Victor had insisted that they stay at Wyndemere. Nikolas replied that it wasn’t healthy for them to share living space. He spied the bottle, and Spencer quickly said that he didn’t want a lecture. He admitted to losing his appetite and running out on his dinner with Victor.

Nikolas offered to listen to Spencer and said that he loved his son. Spencer thought that Nikolas was a “distinct minority.” Nikolas began to name the people who loved Spencer. “She said we’re not even friends anymore,” Spencer blurted out. He told Nikolas about seeing Trina and Rory at the restaurant and that Rory had professed his love for Trina right there for everyone to hear. He admitted that he knew why Trina had rejected him, and he admired her for finding someone with the courage to confess his feelings.

Spencer said he felt like he was still in prison, and he knew when there was no hope. Nikolas reminded him of a childhood book he loved as a kid, a story of a baby bird that had been saved. “Hold onto hope,” Spencer recalled. Nikolas thought it was a good lesson. He didn’t think it was too late, but Spencer was sure that Trina and Rory loved each other. Nikolas revealed that it was hope that got him through the darkest times, even though he kept making mistakes. He thought that he and Spencer both had persistence as a quality, and they didn’t give up on those they loved. He said he knew that Spencer loved Trina.

Back in Esme’s room, she decorated the tree with whatever she could find. She felt alone. She wanted help from her father, and soon after, Demetrius walked in. He handed a box to her. She opened it up and found some ornaments. She said that it meant a lot to her, and he hoped she would stop crying. Esme told her baby that its grandfather had shown her the way.

In Terry’s office at General Hospital, Elizabeth told Finn that she was pregnant after he spotted the bottle of prenatal vitamins. “Another man’s baby,” he said. Elizabeth was sorry, and Finn didn’t believe her. Elizabeth sighed. She told him that it had happened after her return from Monterey when she’d needed someone to talk to. He was angry and reminded her that he had always stood by her. He asked who the father was. “Nikolas,” Elizabeth replied.

Finn stormed out of the office and into his own. Elizabeth followed, as Finn struggled with his rage. He finally smashed a tray of glass items onto the floor. She told him that she had just found out. Finn assumed that Ava didn’t know. He guessed that congratulations were in order, and he promised he wouldn’t bother Elizabeth anymore. He stated that he would call the commissioner to report his suspicions about Esme being at Wyndemere. But, Elizabeth insisted that Esme was not on Spoon Island, and that she oughta know because she had been spending a lot of time there. Her words cut Finn deeply. Finn couldn’t believe what a fool he had been. Elizabeth told him that the boys didn’t know and she made him swear that he wouldn’t divulge the information. He said he would tell no one and left.

Trina wandered around her house and picked up the bottle of perfume that Rory had given her. She thought about their conversation until there was a knock at the front door. It was Ava, and Trina was glad that Ava was there to stop her from making a huge mistake. Trina told her about the three-month anniversary dinner, and she confessed that her heart had been taking her down the path to more heartbreak. Ava told Trina that she had lots of experience in that area. She wanted Trina to have happiness. “Even if it leads to Spencer?” Trina asked.

Ava related that she’d heard about Spencer being out of prison. Trina admitted that she couldn’t pretend to have feelings for Rory, even with all the hurt that Spencer and Esme had caused. Ava also suggested that evidence had been brought to light that seemed to point to another perpetrator being the Hook killer and not Esme. Trina was frightened for her friends and family again because this gave the killer an air of anonymity again.

Ava told Trina to listen to her heart. She thought that her own heart was loud and clear about Nikolas, but she didn’t know if she would listen. After Ava had gone, Trina thought about her friend’s advice. “Welcome home,” read the text she decided to send to Spencer.

Carly arrived at Metro Court just as Drew met up with Denise in the lounge area to discuss Willow’s childhood. Before Carly could make her way to observe, Willow called out to her. Willow announced that she was there for a date night dinner with Michael, but she received a call from him to tell her that he couldn’t make it. She asked Carly to join her instead.

Carly and Willow sat at a table, and Carly asked about Willow’s condition during her first pregnancy. She quickly apologized, and Willow explained that she didn’t like to talk about it because she had had no support from anyone at that time. Carly grabbed Willow’s hands as Willow expressed her gratitude for Michael’s family and the one she had “yet to discover.” She asked Carly about the search that Drew had been conducting, but Carly replied that it was Drew who was running that show. Willow hoped that he would have some news for her soon.

Willow also expressed how kind Carly had been to her and how happy she was that her kids would have Carly as a grandmother. She thought that so much could go wrong. Carly asked if Willow was okay, and Willow replied that she had been thinking of her new baby. She hoped it would be healthy and happy. Carly said she was sure it would be strong and healthy.

In the sitting area of the Metro Court bar, Drew and Denise chatted. Denise stated that the people in the commune had been lost, and he asked if Willow’s mother had been the same. Denise recalled Kali, now Willow, to have been sweet, which was a small miracle, considering her mother. She told Drew about the pregnant, drug addicted Joan, who had joined the commune and then abandoned her baby. Denise said that she was sweet but troubled. The commune leader, Josiah, had asked Harmony and her husband Doug to take the baby.

Drew asked about the baby’s father, but Denise didn’t know anything about him. She was glad to hear that Willow had a good life, husband and family, and she added that Willow’s biological mother had died of an overdose. The conversation drew to a close, and Denise decided to stick around to enjoy a colorful drink from the bar. She confirmed that Drew had been paying for her visit.

Drew made his way to Willow and Carly’s table with an update, and Carly insisted on leaving them alone. Drew thought he should verify the information first, but Willow wanted to hear it. He told her what he’d learned.

Carly found Denise and asked how the conversation with Drew had gone. Denise replied that she had handled the situation exactly as Carly had wanted her to.

At Wyndemere, Spencer received Trina’s text message, and he smiled at Nikolas. He announced that he wouldn’t have to drink anymore. “Hold onto hope,” Spencer said and he exited the room, leaving Ava standing at the door.

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

Nicole has a dream about getting back together with Eric, but then wakes up alone in bed.

Eric wakes up in bed with Sloan, who brings him coffee. Sloan comments that the coffee is hot but not nearly as much as he was last night as they kiss. Sloan asks if he has any regrets about last night.

Kate goes to Jada’s room and brings her tea. Kate comments that Jada looks good and relaxed. Jada responds that she’s feeling a lot better. Jada adds that she’s not happy that Eric is in jail but admits it’s a relief that he’s not right down the hall. Kate then reveals that Eric is no longer in jail as Roman told her they released him yesterday thanks to his new attorney, Sloan Peterson.

Eric assures Sloan that he has absolutely no regrets about last night. Sloan says she can tell something is wrong. Eric says he just has a headache since he doesn’t really drink a lot these days. Sloan offers an aspirin but Eric says he thinks he just needs some breakfast. Sloan offers a a granola bar but Eric says he was thinking something more substantial as they kiss in bed.

At the DiMera Mansion, EJ is on the phone with Susan’s husband Roger, understanding that he couldn’t change his plans considering Susan’s memorial was rather impromptu. EJ remarks that he hopes the woman who murdered Susan is burning in Hell, while Ava watches him from outside the side door.

Kate tells Jada that she thought she knew but Jada says she hasn’t heard from Eric. Kate thought Eric would’ve at least checked on her when he got out to see how she was doing. Jada guesses he feels there’s no reason to now. Kate feels that Eric owes her that much. Jada disagrees and decides she’s glad that Eric is staying away. Jada declares that she and Eric are history, so he’s somebody else’s problem now.

Eric reminds Sloan about how Belle said that getting in to bed with Sloan would be the worst mistake of his life. Eric states that he doesn’t think she could’ve been more wrong.

Johnny goes to Nicole’s room at the DiMera Mansion to get some of Susan’s things for the memorial. Nicole tells him that she’s sorry about Susan and says she was a sweetheart. Johnny apologizes for acting like a jerk when he found out that EJ was letting her stay here. Johnny tells Nicole that he really likes her and he really likes Rafe, so he hoped things would work out between them. Nicole says she was too but she realized that she and Rafe were wrong for each other from the start. Nicole declares that Rafe is a really good person while she is not and never will be.

EJ finishes his call with Roger. Ava looks to open the door but stops as Rafe arrives. EJ asks Rafe what he can do for him. Rafe responds that he needs a statement about Susan’s death as EJ missed two appointments to give him one. EJ doesn’t know what more there is to say. EJ repeats that the ransom exchange went badly, Ava panicked and drove off the road, killing herself and Susan. EJ calls it very unpleasant for him to talk about. Rafe understands and respects that he is grieving, but he needs more details. EJ asks why and says it’s a bit late to bring Ava to justice. EJ tells Rafe to let the dead stay dead, or rot in Ava’s case. Ava remains outside watching him through the door.

Eric tells Sloan about how he left the priesthood the first time for Nicole, but he went back when things didn’t work out, and the second time was on a technicality. Sloan asks if she can presume he won’t run off to the priesthood for a third time. Eric says that’s a safe bet as he had some clear signs that he was on the wrong path anyway. Eric then continues kissing Sloan.

Johnny opens a jewelry box and takes out a cross which he says is a symbol of all things important to Susan. Johnny says Susan was truer to herself than anyone he knew and she never cared what anybody else said or thought about her. Johnny comments that she never changed or even wanted to and he has to admire that about a person. Johnny says he was just a kid when Nicole was his stepmom, but he remembers that she took really good care of him and Sydney regardless of her relationship with EJ. Nicole says they were a delight. Johnny recalls Nicole staying up with him all night and reading him a bedtime story after he had eye surgery. Nicole can’t believe he remembers all that. Johnny says it meant a lot to him. Johnny adds that as much as Sami may have despised her and tried to convince him that she was a horrible person, he never believed her. Johnny says they loved spending time with her and says she was funny. Nicole calls him very sweet. Johnny says he has to get to the church and exits.

Steve goes to the Brady Pub and greets Roman at the bar. Roman comments that he got back from Seattle fast. Steve responds that he and Stephanie are going to fly back for Christmas to join Kayla, Tripp, and Joey. Roman asks how Tripp is doing. Steve says he’s still broken up about his mother. Roman is glad Steve could be there for him and says he was lucky to be in Seattle when Ava was killed. Steve responds that it wasn’t exactly luck.

Rafe tells EJ that if someone other than Ava was in any way involved in Susan’s death, he would want them brought to justice. EJ questions what he’s implying. Rafe finds it strange that EJ is so reluctant to tell him the whole story about what happened. EJ repeats that it’s very difficult for him to talk about. Rafe wants to start with why EJ didn’t call the police when Susan was missing. EJ responds that Ava threatened to kill Susan if he told anyone, so he thought it would be a good idea to handle it himself. Rafe brings up EJ saying that something went wrong with the ransom exchange, causing Ava and Susan to lose control, go off the cliff and die. Rafe asks what went wrong. Nicole then walks in and apologizes for interrupting as EJ greets her. Rafe is surprised and questions what the hell she’s doing here. EJ tells Rafe to use his detective skills and remarks that obviously Nicole spent the night.

Sloan tells Eric that his stamina was impressive but jokes that he has a lot of time to make up for. Eric tells her that casual sex was never in the cards for him since he had standard dreams of kids and a white picket fence but it became obvious to him that was never really in his cards, so he needed to stop fooling himself and getting emotionally involved. Eric wants to make it clear that he’s not really in to getting in to a relationship. Sloan assures that she is the same and that she’s never really believed in happily ever after. Eric is glad they are on the same page. Sloan toasts to no emotional attachment and just pure, wild, passionate sex if he’s up for it. Eric assures that he is and kisses her.

Nicole tells Rafe that it’s not what it looks like and explains that EJ offered her and Holly a place to stay until she finds a place. EJ confirms they are welcome to stay as long as they like. Rafe comments on how generous that is of EJ. Rafe tells EJ to enjoy the consolation prize since both of Nicole’s exes rejected her. Rafe adds that since EJ is determined to stonewall his investigation in to Susan’s death, he will find the information elsewhere. Rafe assures the case is not closed and he will find out the truth as to what happened between EJ and Ava. Rafe says he’ll be in touch and exits the mansion.

Roman asks Steve why he happened to go to Seattle in the first place. Steve calls it a long story to get in to. Jada and Kate come downstairs. Jada greets Steve and says it’s good to see he’s back. Kate asks how Tripp is doing. Steve responds that he’s hanging in there and thanks her. Roman asks how Jada is feeling. Jada says she’s much better and is actually heading to work. Steve asks if she was sick. Jada responds that she took a few days of medical leave, but she’s better now. Steve mentions that he’s heading to the police station as well and offers to give her a ride as he wants to discuss a police matter with her.

Ava hides out in the DiMera Crypt. Her vision of her dead son Charlie appears once again and says he heard today was the big day which Ava confirms. He presumes she has a plan. Ava says it’s simple, direct, and she doesn’t know why she didn’t think of it before. Charlie asks how they are getting their final revenge on EJ DiMera. Ava declares that EJ is going to die.

Eric reminds Sloan that he originally came over to pay his retainer so he still owes her and hopes that’s not the only reason he was welcome here. Sloan invites him to stay another night if he wants. Eric thanks her but says he should get back to the Pub. Sloan points out that he will run in to Jada there. Eric states that he’ll have to face her at some point.

Nicole goes to the Brady Pub and orders a black coffee to go. Nicole asks Kate if Jada is around. Kate responds that she missed her as she just left for work. Kate adds that she doesn’t think Jada wants to see her. Nicole responds that Jada can decide that. Kate remarks that Jada should make her own decisions. Nicole knows Eric blames her for Jada’s choice but argues that she did not force Jada’s hand. Kate questions if Nicole was doing Jada a favor by telling her how horrible her life would be if she had Eric’s baby. Roman points out that he and Kate were both on Nicole’s side and hoping that she and Eric would find their way back to each other. Nicole asks if he’s saying it’s all her fault and that she messed everything up. Nicole thought the baby was her and Eric’s biggest problem but it turns out their biggest problem is that there is no more baby.

Steve goes to the police station with Jada. Jada asks Steve about making a statement. Steve says he wants it on the record and he doesn’t want any secrets from Rafe, so he wants him to hear this too. Rafe then arrives at the station and asks what he wants him to hear. Steve then informs Rafe that EJ kidnapped Tripp and he needs to pay for it.

Ava’s vision of Charlie says he is confused since Ava’s original plan was to kidnap Susan and make EJ pay them back with blood, sweat, tears, and lots of money. Ava points out that EJ kidnapping Tripp changed things. Charlie questions if Ava driving Susan off a cliff and incinerating her wasn’t revenge enough for her. Ava responds that it wasn’t and she’s not going to let EJ live long enough to ever lay another finger on Tripp again.

Johnny goes to the living room of the DiMera Mansion and informs EJ that he took Susan’s cross to the church so it can be on display at the memorial. EJ thanks him and wishes he told him as he would’ve gone with him. Johnny says he didn’t want him to and acknowledges how hard this must be on EJ. Johnny still can’t believe it’s real. Johnny adds that Father Bernard did ask him if they wanted to arrange for some kind of marker in her memory since there are no remains. EJ admits he was thinking about that since he would like a place to visit where he can feel close to her. EJ suggests a plaque in the DiMera Crypt but notes that it’s getting full in there. EJ jokes that last time they added Jake, Stefan came back, so maybe someone else will rise from the dead this time. EJ then suggests they go to the Crypt to find a spot for Susan…

Charlie guesses it’s a good thing that their plan didn’t work out after all. Charlie remarks that he thought they were going to live happily ever after in the underworld but it turns out that Ava is hard to kill. Ava agrees and jokes that she must be on her 8th life now. Charlie points out that Ava had a chance to end EJ’s life while he was passed out on the roadside but she didn’t, so he questions why she didn’t.

Nicole asks how Jada is doing. Kate responds that she’s about as good as she’d imagine. Nicole tells Roman that she knows Kate is not interested in hearing her out, but she never intended for things to turn out this way and she’s sorry that Eric is hurting. Roman responds that Eric is responsible for his own actions, so it’s on him that he assaulted two people and wound up in jail. Roman asks if Nicole has heard from Eric since his release. Nicole confirms she did as he was with his new attorney. They ask her what he said. Nicole reveals that Eric said he never wanted to see her again. Roman questions when that was. Nicole says it was yesterday and asks why. Roman hopes that Eric didn’t get into any more trouble since he didn’t come home last night.

Eric tells Sloan that he knows he has to go back home and he can’t go back to working with Nicole. Sloan talks about how there’s no escape for him. Eric says he just needs time and a reset. Sloan tells him that he’s always welcome here with no strings as they are just friends with great benefits. Eric thanks her and says it’s been a long time since he had a real friend.

Jada questions Tripp being kidnapped and asks if he’s okay. Steve says he’s fine as he and Kayla managed to rescue him and that’s why they went to Seattle. Rafe questions thinking EJ is behind it. Steve says he knows it. Rafe says it makes sense since he knew something had escalated between Ava and EJ. Jada goes over that Ava kidnapped EJ’s mom, so EJ kidnapped her son. Steve explains that when they freed Tripp, EJ lost his leverage against Ava. Rafe says that made EJ desperate and a desperate EJ led to a ruthless Ava. Jada adds that it’s what led to Ava and Susan being killed in the car crash. Rafe says it all makes sense now as that is why EJ was so down at the crash site, since he knew that if he had just given Ava the ransom money then Susan would still be alive. Jada adds that EJ essentially kidnapped Tripp and committed a felony for nothing. Rafe questions Steve saying that he and Kayla rescued Tripp themselves. Steve confirms that they had to work fast and under the radar. Steve says he won’t apologize for doing what he had to do to save his son. Steve adds that Ava asked for his help while conveniently leaving out her part in getting Tripp kidnapped in the first place. Rafe questions why he didn’t get the authorities involved sooner. Steve explains that Ava begged him not to and he agreed to at least until he found that Tripp was safe. Steve adds that he would’ve come to Rafe right after that, but then they found out Ava died, so he didn’t want to leave Tripp. Jada says Steve is telling them now and that’s the important thing. Rafe points out that it’s all hearsay. Steve confirms that Ava told him that EJ kidnapped Tripp but he doesn’t know or have any proof and the henchman wouldn’t name names while now Ava is dead. Rafe bets EJ is feeling pretty good that there’s no proof of his involvement. Steve says that’s why he needs their help in figuring out a way to make EJ pay.

EJ suggests they go to the DiMera Crypt but Johnny stops him and says he doesn’t know if Susan would really want her marker to be in the family crypt. EJ asks why not. EJ knows Susan is technically not a DiMera but she is family. Johnny reminds him that the Devil held her hostage there so he doesn’t know if she’d want her memory to be associated with it for the rest of eternity. EJ decides Johnny may be right since it is gloomy down there and haunted by so many ghosts.

Charlie goes over how Ava and EJ struggled over the gun at the crash site until he fell and hit his head, then Ava was standing over EJ with the gun. Charlie asks why she didn’t kill him and if she lost her nerve. Ava responds that she wanted to give EJ more time to suffer with the guilt of what he did to his mother. Charlie asks if now EJ has suffered enough. Ava declares that he’ll never suffer enough, but she thinks that more people need to pay for the way they treated her and the perfect opportunity has presented itself. Ava declares that today will be their final act.

Jada tells Steve that she’ll do anything to help but points out that Tripp was kidnapped in Seattle which is out of their jurisdiction. Steve knows that limits what they can do. Rafe points out that EJ probably managed everything from here, so if they can prove that then they have jurisdiction. Jada and Rafe decide they are all in. Rafe adds that he’s all for anything he can do to bring down EJ.

EJ pours a drink. Johnny comments that it’s a little early for a drink. EJ says not these days and certainly not today. Johnny asks what happened today. EJ tells him that Rafe came by and tried to implicate him in Susan’s death. Johnny argues that he can’t do that. EJ remarks that Rafe was just angry that Nicole is staying there and tried to take it out on him. EJ brings up if Rafe asks Johnny any questions. Johnny says there’s nothing he could tell him as he only knows that EJ did everything in his power to bring Susan home safely. EJ agrees that he did and adds that Johnny is more than welcome to invite Wendy to the memorial to keep up the cover of them being romantically involved. Johnny thanks him. EJ adds that the entire family is going to be there, so they need to be very careful of what they say to each other so no one hears them talking about what they know. Johnny assures that if Stefan finds out that EJ brainwashed him, it’s not going to be from him.

Eric and Sloan eat together in bed. Sloan praises his cooking. Eric says he’s been cooking for himself for many years while Sloan says she’s been ordering in for many years. Eric suggests they clear the table. Sloan suggests they pick up where they left off. Sloan jokes about handcuffs and Eric getting his priest collar being a fantasy of hers’. Eric says he’s pretty free without the collar. They decide who needs clothing and agree to go shower together.

Nicole questions Roman about Eric not coming home last night. Roman says he even checked with Rafe to make sure he wasn’t back in lockup while Kate adds that they even checked the hospital. Roman is sure Eric is okay but he’s wondering where he could be. Kate asks if Nicole has any idea. Nicole says she doesn’t. Nicole then claims she remembered she had something to do and quickly walks out of the Pub, leaving behind her coffee order. Roman wonders where Nicole went in such a hurry. Kate thinks she was thrown by Eric not coming home. Roman says he’s worried about Eric. Kate responds that Nicole is too but for a completely different reason.

Eric and Sloan get out of the shower together. Sloan then answers the door to see Nicole and questions what she’s doing there as Nicole sees Sloan and Eric in towels.

Rafe tells Jada that he’s glad to see her back at work and asks how she’s feeling. Jada says she’s fine and tired of everyone acting like she’s a fragile little doll. Rafe says people just care about her. Jada just wants to focus on work and put everything with Eric behind her. Rafe says he would love to do the same with Nicole but it seems the universe is conspiring against him. Jada asks what happened now. Rafe informs her that he went to see EJ to question him and didn’t expect to see Nicole there, walking out in a bathrobe which shocks Jada. Rafe says evidently Nicole has moved in with EJ, which he was very happy to inform him of. Jada says she’s so sorry. Rafe says it’s okay as nothing Nicole does surprises him anymore, but he would like to wipe the smug grin off EJ’s face once and for all.

EJ tells Johnny that Harold will serve a luncheon after the service. EJ talks about how the food and music doesn’t matter as he just wants to honor Susan properly and he doesn’t want anyone to forget her. Johnny assures that no one will forget about her.

Ava says it’s a good thing that EJ was drunk that night and his brothers convinced him that he imagined the whole thing, so he still thinks she’s dead and will never see it coming. Ava declares that now she can get revenge on the whole lot of them. Ava declares it will be a memorable memorial as she then unveils a briefcase with a bomb inside and says it’s going to be a blast.
