[Cell door opening]

Gwen: [Sighs] Well, they told me I had a visitor. Didn’t expect to see you so soon.

Leo: I have something to tell you.

Gwen: About what?

Leo: Your sister.

[Tense music]

Lucas: [Exhales deeply] Ow. Ah. Ow, my head.

[Groaning]

[Dramatic music]

What the hell– what the hell did I do last night?

Kayla: How can abigail be gone?

Steve: Doesn’t seem real.

Kayla: She was just here– she was just here for a physical. She was–she was– she was in perfect health. Our sweet, beautiful niece was so full of energy and enthusiasm for life. And she wanted to have a baby. Now– [Groans]

Steve: I know. I know.

[Soft dramatic music]

Kayla: Oh, jenn. Oh, jenn, I’m so, so sorry. I am so sorry. I’m sorry.

Jack: [Sighs]

Kayla: I’m sorry. I’m sorry.

[Somber music]

Abigail: Well, look what the cat dragged in.

Chad: Abby?

Abigail: Honey, where you been? I was waiting for you. What’s wrong? You look like you just lost your best friend.

Chad: That’s because I did.

[Crying]

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

[Soft orchestration]

Lucas: You can’t blame this on losing adrienne or your son. This is all on you, you complete loser. You’re weak. You’re pathetic. You’re a complete embarrassment. Ow! Ow. Ow! What the hell happened to my hand? I can’t remember. I can’t remember anything after I polished that bottle off. Think. Come on. Think, you idiot. Think. I can’t remember anything after I fell off the wagon, but, obviously, I hurt my hand. Please, god, don’t let me have hurt anyone else.

Kayla: We can’t begin to tell you how sorry we are.

Steve: Listen, we’re here for you. Whatever you need, okay?

Kayla: Right. I mean, do you– do you want to go sit down, go to my office?

Steve: I could get you some tea, something to eat.

Jennifer: Could we see her? I’d like to see my daughter.

Kayla: Of course, honey.

Jennifer: God.

Kayla: I got you.

Jennifer: Okay.

[Soft dramatic music]

Chad: [Laughing softly]

Abigail: You really look like hell.

[Doorbell rings] You better get that.

[Doorbell rings] I don’t think they’re gonna go away. It’s all right, honey, I’ll wait for you.

Chad: [Sniffles] Abby? Abby, come back, please!

[Doorbell rings]

[Dramatic music]

Rafe: Chad. I hate to bother you at a time like this. I’m so sorry for your loss.

Chad: I don’t want your sympathy, rafe. I want you to tell me who did this to my wife.

Gwen: Abigail’s dead?

Leo: She was murdered. Someone stabbed her to death in her bedroom.

Gwen: Was it you?

Chad: Who did this to my wife, rafe? I need you to find who did this.

Rafe: And we will. Csu was here all night gathering evidence; that’s why you couldn’t get back in until this morning. Everything is at the lab right now. It’s being tested as we speak.

Chad: Did you find a murder weapon?

Rafe: Not yet.

Chad: Do you have any suspects?

Rafe: Chad, listen to me, we have every available officer out there right now looking, chasing down leads, searching. We don’t have anyone in custody yet.

Chad: Then what are you doing here?

Rafe: Chad, I came here because I wanted to see the crime scene. I had to ask some questions myself.

Chad: Ask them.

Rafe: Okay. I want you to go with me up to the bedroom. Listen, you can take your time. Whenever you’re ready.

Chad: If I go up there, is it gonna help you catch the person who did this to my wife and send them straight to hell?

Rafe: Yes.

Chad: Okay, then I’m ready.

[Tense music]

[Laughter]

Abigail: Harold was looking at us kind of oddly.

Chad: He’s never seen two people kissing before.

Abigail: In this house, maybe not.

Chad: Mm.

[Laughs softly]

Rafe: Take your time.

Chad: Hey, baby, you missed the best “minions” movie yet. Abby? Abby!

[Tense music]

Jennifer: [Exhales sharply]

[Breathing shakily]

[Soft dramatic music]

[Gasps] No! No! No! No! No!

Jennifer: [Breathing shakily] Can we have a minute alone with her?

Kayla: Take all the time you need.

[Somber music]

Jennifer: [Sobbing]

Leo: Why would you think that I killed abigail?

Gwen: You were in her house last night.

Leo: But you sent me there.

Gwen: I sent you directions to the secret room, where you were obviously lying in wait.

Leo: Um, no, I was drinking mimosas and working out a plan for revenge, which did not include me going all norman bates.

Gwen: Listen, if anyone understands, it is me. I understand the resentment and the rage that you felt when you crept out of that room and into abigail’s bedroom and you got that revenge that you so bloody well deserved.

[Dramatic music]

Rafe: Csu took the bedding for analysis. What’s in this box?

Chad: Some of abigail’s jewelry and some cash.

Rafe: Uh-huh. It looks like the lock’s been tampered with. Was it always that way?

Chad: No.

Rafe: No?

[Mysterious music]

Yeah. Can you give me a list of things that were in there?

Chad: Yeah, and–and, um, I’ll send you some photos that we had taken for insurance purposes too.

Rafe: Okay, great. That would be helpful.

Chad: Do you think this is a robbery gone wrong?

Rafe: It’s hard to say. Some other pricey items were here, like abigail’s laptop, so maybe someone just wanted to make it look like a robbery.

Chad: There was so much blood.

Rafe: Yeah. Well, maybe not all of it was abigail’S. The lab will check to determine if some of it belonged to someone else. We both know that abigail was a fighter, so whoever did this, well, they probably have wounds of their own.

Lucas: Hey, roman. Is my mom here?

Roman: No, she went to see chad.

Lucas: Good. That means I got a little time before she kills me for standing her up last night.

Roman: You haven’t heard?

Lucas: Heard what?

Roman: Lucas, you better have a sit.

Lucas: Please, tell me this has nothing to do with the devil and one of my kids. I can’t take that right now.

Roman: Look, this isn’t easy to say, so I’m just gonna say it. Abigail was murdered last night.

[Tense music]

Jennifer: Abigail johanna, my sweet child, my firstborn. You look so peaceful, like you’re sleeping. You never slept when you were a baby. You insisted on keeping those big, beautiful eyes wide open so you wouldn’t miss a thing. That was you, curious and alert from the moment you came into this world. You were this tiny, tiny little soul, so very fragile, and yet so incredibly strong. And you used that strength to fight. Whatever challenges life threw at you, you faced them. You overcame them with courage and with grace, just like your grandma laura. You always reminded me of her in that way, that strength, that fighting spirit. My extraordinary daughter, nothing I have ever done or will do will make me as proud as I am to be your mother. Take care of her, mom. You take care of my baby. ‘Cause I don’t know what I’m gonna do without her. Oh, jack! Oh, god!

[Sobbing]

Leo: That is a really nice story, guinevere, but it’s fiction. I did not kill abigail dimera.

Gwen: Really?

Leo: Really.

Gwen: Sorry. I just had to ask since you were in her house last night. So tell me, did you see anything?

Leo: What do you mean?

Gwen: I mean, you said that abigail was attacked in her bedroom. You weren’t up there at all, were you?

[Dramatic music]

Leo: Of course not. Now, if you’re done grilling me, I have a question of my own I’d like to ask.

Gwen: By all means.

Leo: You called me yesterday all hot and bothered because abigail had broken your little arts and crafts project.

Gwen: It was a mug that I made for my father for his birthday.

Leo: You asked abigail to deliver it. Instead, she dropped it on the floor, on purpose, which made you real mad. Mad enough that you told me to, and I quote, “find the nearest sharp object and use it to stab abigail through the heart.”

Gwen: Okay, you said you had a question?

Leo: Oh, right. Those instructions you gave me about the sharp object, any chance you followed through with them yourself?

Gwen: I haven’t a clue what you mean.

Leo: Oh, well, then allow me to rephrase. Did you kill abigail? My asthma felt anything but normal.

Chad: So what’s your take? You think it’s a robbery?

Rafe: Well, like I said, it’s possible. Robbery or no robbery, we will find them. We will follow every lead. We will pore over every shred of evidence. We will not stop until we get justice for abigail. If there’s anything you need, you call me.

[Somber music]

Gwen: How could I possibly have killed abigail?

Leo: From all reports, with a very sharp knife.

Gwen: You do realize that I am here in prison, don’t you? I’m locked up 24 hours a day.

[Mysterious music]

Guard: Hey! Rizczech!

Gwen: Oh. Hi, roy.

Guard: You missed bed check. Where the hell have you been?

Gwen: I have a pass to use the library. You can ask the matron.

Guard: We searched the library.

Gwen: Well, I fell asleep in a corner. I just woke up. Come on, roy. Where else could I have been? This place is surrounded 18-foot walls. There’s razor wire and guards with guns.

Leo: Yes, yes, dear, I know. But of all the ways abigail could have died, it happened exactly the way you wanted it to. And you sure did want it to happen.

Gwen: Okay, I will admit, yes, I did have a motive. But I did not have the means. And as far as opportunity, I mean, look around, matty. It’s just not possible.

Abigail: Come here, my love. Let’s make a baby.

[Somber music]

Chad: We can’T.

Abigail: I thought that’s what you wanted.

Chad: It is. I want that so much. But you’re gone. I need you to tell me what to do. How am I gonna tell the children that we do have that they’re never gonna see their mother again?

Jennifer: Go to her, jack.

Jack: I–I– I don’t want to say goodbye.

Jennifer: You don’t have to. Just say whatever’s in your heart.

[Soft dramatic music]

Jack: Abigail, my dear, sweet, precious girl… I’m sorry. For so many things, I’m sorry. I know you’d tell me not to– not to be, but I can’t help it. I am. I’m sorry for never being the father you deserved, for being selfish, for always falling short. All of it. I– I will always regret that. More than anything, I will regret taking you for granted, for assuming we had all the time in the world. I–I was starting to get the hang of it, you know? Being a good dad. And we were getting closer. And, oh, did you make me proud as a journalist, a mother, a human being. You inspired me. You taught me. In your all-too-short life, you gave me so much. Most of all, you gave me– you gave me hope. You were my light, abigail. In my darkest days, the light of your love kept me going and helped me find my way. And now some– someone cruel and dark has taken your light away. I don’t know if I’ll ever find my way out of this darkness.

[Dramatic music]

Are you one of the millions of americans

Abigail: Honey, it’s okay. Come here. Please.

Chad: Maybe–maybe I could just hold you one last time.

[Sobbing]

[Soft dramatic music]

Leo: Oh, come on. Like people haven’t busted out of here?

Gwen: Yeah, sure, people with cash, connections, the last name dimera. I am naught for three.

Leo: I suppose that’s true. So if you didn’t do it, and I didn’t do it, it would appear that somebody else did our dirty work for us.

Gwen: Hm.

Lucas: [Crying]

Roman: Lucas, I am so sorry. I know how much you loved your niece.

Lucas: Abigail was an angel. What happened to her is unimaginable. It takes me back to losing will. You know, no parent should ever have to feel that pain.

Roman: No, no. Is there anything you need? Anything I can get you? What did you do there?

Lucas: It’s nothing. It’s nothing to worry about. I have a splitting headache right now. I’ll take an aspirin if you’ve got one.

Roman: Sure. Be right back.

Kate: I just had a talk with chad.

Lucas: So what? What’s the big deal?

Kate: So the big deal is that he thought I should know that he told abigail that you’re the one who kidnapped sami.

Lucas: What? Oh, what did I do?

[Doorbell rings]

Kate: Oh, god. I’m so sorry.

Chad: Are you?

[ Screaming ]

Kate: Of course, I’m sorry. I’m heartbroken.

Chad: Shh!

[Tense music]

Kate: Where is this coming from? What did I do wrong?

Chad: You tell me.

Kate: I–I’m lost. I’m lost.

Chad: Really? Remember our–our conversation yesterday where I did you the enormous courtesy of telling you that I had told abigail the truth about lucas, hm? And you completely lost it?

Kate: Chad, I was–I was shocked, I was surprised.

Chad: No! No! No! You lost it! And then you ripped into me for not keeping my mouth shut!

Kate: Because I was concerned about my son, that’s why!

Chad: No, you were scared out of youmind that abigail was gonna share what she knew! Even after I told you that you had nothing to worry about, that she wouldn’t tell anyone! You said that that wasn’t good enough! That you–look at me! That you needed assurances that she wouldn’t tell anyone that lucas was the one that kidnapped sami!

Kate: [Spluttering]

Chad: Oh. Oh, what? Am I–was I–oh, shh. Was that too loud? Did you want me to keep my voice down? Huh? No one is here! Ej is at marlena’s with the kids! Tony and anna are gone! Harold is off! And my wife is dead! Is that good enough for your assurance?

Kate: Oh, my god, you think that I killed abigail to keep her quiet? Is that what you think?

Chad: Look at me. Did you?

Leo: I am so sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Although, you don’t seem that broken up about it.

Gwen: I do feel bad for jack.

Leo: Uh-huh.

Gwen: But you– well, you must be ecstatic with the unexpected assist.

Leo: Perhaps I wasn’t clear earlier. I wanted revenge against abigail badly. But I think what happened to her is horrible. It makes me sick, actually.

Gwen: Excuse me, but this might be just a tad revisionist, given as you were right in this very room just the other day joking about how you wanted to slit abigail’s throat.

Leo: Exactly. I was joking. I have to go.

Gwen: Thank you for filling me in.

Leo: I’m sorry for your loss.

[Mysterious music

Roman: Jennifer, I am so sorry.

Jennifer: Lucas, I’m so glad to see you.

Selling your car

doesn’t have to be hard.

Kate: I can’t begin to imagine the pain you’re going through right now, but I know that you can’t possibly believe that I could have had anything to do with abigail’s death.

Chad: I don’t think–I don’t think you planned it.

Kate: Okay, I– what does that mean?

Chad: I–I think that after our little talk, I think that you–you couldn’t shake your worry about lucas. So you came over here to have a–a little chat with my wife to impress upon her the importance of staying quiet. And my abby, she was taking offense to that, so I think that things maybe–maybe got out of hand a little bit.

Kate: Okay. I understand. But it doesn’t matter how worried I was, I would never ever–

Chad: Would never what? Never what, kate? Go to extremes to protect your kids?

Kate: I know you’re upset. I know that you’re exhausted. And I know that you’re not thinking straight, okay? I know that. But look at me. Look at me. Chad, look at me! I would never kill abigail to keep her quiet, and neither would lucas, okay?

Chad: Lucas? Why would you mention lucas?

Kate: Because that’s what this whole conversation is about. Because you told abigail that lucas was the one that kidnapped sami.

Chad: Yeah, but lucas didn’t know that. Or did he?

Steve: Hey, baby.

Kayla: Oh, hi.

Steve: Are you leaving?

Kayla: Yeah, I–I have to go back to the hospital. But lucas is in there with jennifer. Where’s jack?

Steve: He had something to take care of.

Kayla: What?

Steve: He didn’t say.

[Dramatic music]

Gwen: You didn’t have to bloody break it!

Abigail: Honey, you’re lucky that’s all I broke.

Gwen: It’s okay. I’ll just make another one.

Abigail: Great! Make a whole damn set. Lord knows you’re gonna have plenty of time for it.

Gwen: You selfish bitch! I am going to make you pay for this!

[Cell door opening]

[Suspenseful music]

Leo: Please, please still be here. [Sighs] Yes. I’d have preferred an alamainian emerald, but you will do just fine.

[ Dramatic music ]

Taylor: You have news about sheila?

Ridge: Did another inmate kill her? That would be perfect.

Baker: As far as I know, sheila carter still very much alive.

Taylor: As far as you know?

Ridge: What’s going on?

Baker: I’m afraid that she’s no longer in custody.

Ridge: What?

Taylor: Why not?

Baker: She escaped.

Li: Sheila? What are– how are you–

Sheila: You don’t get it, do you? Nothing and no one is going to keep me away from my son. Where is he li? Where is finn?

Quinn: It’s eric’s heart rate. The– the smart ring says that it’s spiking again.

Carter: He’s at the club, right?

Quinn: Yes. Yeah. He– he said he was going to the club. This just seems more concerning than a game of pickleball.

Eric: I should know by now to expect the unexpected with you.

Donna: Well, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Eric: No?

Donna: Here’s looking to a lot more fun to look forward to. Hey. Wait. Wait. Wait. That wasn’t meant to pressure you or anything. I’m happy with everything just the way it is. Like here. I just want to spend as much time as possible with you. That’s all.

Carter: You know, I’m not sure that smart ring that you gave eric was such a good idea.

Quinn: Why?

Carter: If you’re going to panic every time he builds up a head of steam working out and playing pickleball, then to find out that he’s okay, you’re the one whose heart is going to need to be monitored.

Quinn: You think I’m overreacting? Here’s the problem. I’m the one who set the heart rate threshold. So, I don’t know when I’m supposed to be worried. But, do you know who would?

Carter: Who?

Quinn: Bridget, eric’s daughter. She is a doctor. She would be able to tell me when I’m supposed to be concerned. I’m going to call her. I need to make sure that eric is going to be okay.

Eric: You bring such joy to my life. Such ease and wants. I look forward to this time with you so much. And I just hate it– I hate it when I have to go.

Donna: I wish you didn’t have to leave me. You know, I go through serious withdrawal.

Eric: I’m sorry. Soon.

Donna: Soon.

Hope: Did I really just see that? You and eric.

Donna: Ah…

Taylor: What do you mean sheila escaped?

Ridge: How is that even possible?

Baker: We’re utilizing every resource we have to find her. I just wanted you to know right away.

Ridge: You have no idea where she is?

Taylor: Or where she’s headed?

Baker: At this point, sheila could be anywhere.

Li: How are you here, sheila? You’re supposed to be in prison.

Sheila: You know what? Many have tried, but they haven’t been able to keep me behind bars. This is– this is really quite a hiding place that you have burrowed into. It was a real challenge trying to find you. But I was determined. I want to know my son’s final resting place. You tell me now, where is finn? Are you one of the millions of americans

Donna: Hope, what are you doing here?

[ Hope laughs ]

Hope: That is really not the most burning question, is it?

Donna: Okay. Okay. It’s not what you’re thinking.

Hope: Oh, no. Was that not eric who just walked out of there?

Donna: Yes, that– that was eric.

Hope: And you were kissing him?

Donna: Well, I’d like to think it was mutual. What?

Hope: Please tell me that you are not having an affair with eric.

Donna: I’m not. I am. Sort of.

Hope: Sort of? Sort of? He’s– he is married to quinn.

Quinn: Eric’s heart rate has dropped. But I’m glad bridget is coming over so we can get ahead of any other problems.

Carter: Yeah. Yeah. I wonder if eric knows how lucky he is that… you said yes. How smart he was to take you back.

Quinn: I’m always going to be grateful that eric forgave me… for us.

[ Door unlatching ]

Quinn: Oh, good. You’re here.

Bridget: Yes, of course. What’s going on with my dad?

Carter: I’ll let you two talk.

Bridget: Hi.

Carter: Good to see you.

Bridget: Good to see you too. I can tell you’re really concerned about something.

Quinn: Your dad’s heart rate has been spiking.

Bridget: Okay. How do you know that?

Quinn: Because I’ve been monitoring it with a smart ring.

Bridget: Oh.

Ridge: I– I can’t believe this.

Taylor: How did she escape?

Baker: She was being transferred. It looks like she had help.

Taylor: Help?

Ridge: From the inside?

Baker: Prison guard.

Ridge: Oh, okay. So now she’s just running around L.A. No one knows where she is.

Taylor: Oh, thank god. Steffy and the kids are out of the country.

Baker: She won’t be out there for long. We will find her.

Ridge: Are you tracking her. What are you doing?

Baker: Well, we were hoping you could help.

Ridge: Us? What– what– what do we know?

Baker: Your dealings with her recently. Did she say anything about where she might want to go or– or who she might want to see?

Li: How are you here, sheila? You’re supposed to be behind bars.

Sheila: I escaped with the help of a friend. I have resources. You’d be very smart to remember that.

Li: I’m going to the police.

Sheila: Don’t even bother. You don’t think I went through all this trouble just so you could send me back to prison? No. I want to see my son. I never got to tell him goodbye.

Li: There would be no need for goodbyes if it wasn’t for you. You shot him.

Shelia: It was an accident!

Li: Is that how you sleep at night?

Sheila: Ugh. I am trying to say this as nicely as I can. Where is finn? Did you bury him? Did you spread his ashes? I want to see my son. (Dog barking) we love our pets.

Hope: This is unbelievable. You and eric. I know I’m not quinn’s biggest fan, but marriage should still be respected. And I’m going to guess that she has no idea.

Donna: No. No, she doesn’T. I’m asking you please, please don’t tell her.

Quinn: It’s a secret, okay?

Bridget: Okay.

Quinn: Please, please, please don’t say anything to your dad. Because I’ve been monitoring his heart out of love, right? I mean, I want him to be around for a really long time. And, you know, men, they could be at death’s door before they admit something is wrong. Much less go see a doctor.

Bridget: That’s true. And I appreciate that, quinn. I appreciate you looking after my dad.

Quinn: Just– you won’t tell him, right?

Bridget: No. I don’t see any reason for him to know.

Quinn: Okay, good, good. All right. Thank you. So, do you think there’s any reason to be concerned?

Bridget: Well, an elevated heart rate could be caused by any number of things like anxiety. Or exercise. Or… another form of… excitement.

Quinn: Oh. No. Oh. See. Well, you may know that your father and i have been through kind of a difficult time, and I was hoping we would have gotten… past it by now. But– but, yeah, that’s– that’s not going to be one of the reasons that I’m worried about, unfortunately.

Bridget: I understand that. But professionally speaking, I’m not really hearing anything that’s giving me cause for alarm. I mean, quinn, it’s perfectly normal to set goals in an exercise routine and then move past them. It actually sounds like my dad’s heart is getting stronger, not weaker.

Quinn: That’s a relief.

Bridget: But I do want you to keep me posted. And I am going to… talk to my dad. I want to find out exactly what this exercise routine is. And… I promise you, I will not mention your smart ring.

Quinn: I will keep you posted. And I thank you so much, bridget.

Bridget: You know what, quinn? Thank you for caring so much about my dad.

[ Door unlatching ]

Bridget: Dad!

Eric: Hello bridget. What ah– what’s going on here?

Ridge: I’m sorry, chief, no, deputy chief. Did you just seriously ask us if we know where sheila is?

Baker: Your personal relationship with her. Your long-term relationship. That’s an advantage the law enforcement doesn’t have.

Ridge: I’m so sorry. Sheila carter shot my daughter, almost killed her. She did kill her own son. And she was in prison. And you couldn’t hold on to her.

Taylor: Ridge has a point. Listen, chief baker. Sheila– sheila has a very hard time making friends. And the only family that she had was her potential relationship with finn.

Ridge: The only family she had was finn. And now he’s dead because of her.

Li: I mean it sheila. Get out.

Sheila: I will. Once you tell me where finn is. I never meant to kill my son.

Li: My son.

Sheila: I gave life to him! All I ever wanted was to love him and have him love me in return. A chance at a relationship with my son and my grandson. It’s all I’ve been living for. Why on earth would I deliberately ruin any chance of that ever happening? I am still haunted by the events of that night.

Li: You should be.

Sheila: I did– I didn’t even know he was there. When I finally saw him, it was just too late.

Li: My god. I can’t believe you, justifying yourself. You fired a gun at steffy. You pulled the trigger. You intended to kill her. Finn’s wife. Hayes’ mother.

Sheila: She wouldn’t stop. She kept telling me that I would never be a part of my son’s life. That I would– I would never share any time with my son or my grandson. She took brooke’s side. She defended brooke. She doesn’t even like brooke. She did all of this just to hurt me. No, this is steffy’s fault. If it weren’t for her, my son would still be alive.

Li: You’re insane.

Sheila: You have no idea what this has done to me, reliving this horror. I see finn lying on the ground, bleeding. And it just plays over and over in my mind.

Li: Good. I hope it haunts you for the rest of your worthless life. Now, leave.

Sheila: I told you, I’m not leaving until you tell me where finn is.

[ Heart rate monitor beeping ] What was that? Answer me. You tell me now. What was that sound?

Can a cream

really reduce wrinkles?

Eric: It’s not very often that I find the two of you together. What’s the occasion?

Quinn: What’s the one thing– the most important thing that bridget and I have in common?

Eric: Well, the most important thing is me.

Quinn: Right. I– I reached out to your daughter because… I was worried about you.

Eric: Why?

Quinn: Because I think you may be overdoing it at the club.

Hope: Wow.

Donna: I– I– I love him, hope. What eric and I share it’s– it’s– it’s sweet and it’s pure.

Hope: After everything that eric and quinn have been through to try to stay together and now he’s cheating on her with you?

Donna: Okay. Okay. I can see you’re really, really disappointed me and… eric. And please don’t judge us like this. I’m begging you. Please don’t say anything to quinn or brooke. I– look, I just don’t want to upset eric or– or cause more problems in his life than he already has. Can you please not say anything… for me? Please.

Ridge: This is unbelievable to me. How does this happen to me? How does someone like sheila carter, a psychopath and a murderer, just walk out of prison and be on her merry way?

Taylor: Who would– who would help a woman who– who killed her son and shot his wife? Oh, thank god steffy and the kids are far away.

Ridge: Yeah, they are far away. No one knows where they are. Not now, but they will. Baker, what is he doing? The police, what are they doing? Nothing. They got to find her and put it away before… before something else happens.

Sheila: What was that sound? Is there somebody else here? Is it jack?

Li: No. Jack and I are no longer together, thanks to you. You ruined us just like you ruin everything. You single handedly took a wrecking ball to my life. My husband, my son. No more. I won’t allow you to hurt us ever again, sheila, now get out!

Sheila: How many times do I have to tell you? I am not going anywhere until I see my son.

[ Heart rate monitor beeping ]

Li: You need to leave.

Sheila: What is that sound?

Li: You need to leave now.

Sheila: Why won’t you tell me? Get out of my way.

Update written by Joseph

Leo visits Gwen in prison. Gwen says she didn’t expect to see him so soon. Leo sits down and informs her that he has something to tell her about her sister.

Lucas wakes up in his hotel room with a hangover, complaining of a headache. Lucas sits up and sees the bottle of alcohol next to him in bed as he flashes back to stealing the bottle from the Brady Pub. Lucas wonders what the hell he did last night.

Steve and Kayla sit together at the hospital. Steve says it doesn’t seem real. Kayla talks about Abigail just being there for a physical and being in perfect health. Kayla cries that Abigail was full of energy and enthusiasm for life. Jack and Jennifer arrive at the hospital. Kayla and Steve hug them as they cry.

Chad returns home to the DiMera Mansion. He slowly enters the living room and imagines Abigail waiting for him inside as he starts to cry.

Lucas tells himself that he can’t blame this on losing Adrienne or his son. Lucas says it’s all on himself and calls himself a loser, weak, and pathetic. Lucas grabs the bottle to throw it across the room but drops it in pain when he realizes a large cut on his hand. Lucas complains that he can’t remember anything after finishing the bottle. Lucas urges himself to think as he obviously hurt his hand. Lucas prays to God to not have let him hurt anyone else…

Steve and Kayla tell Jack and Jennifer how sorry they are and that they are here if they need anything. Kayla asks if they want to go to her office. Steve offers to get them tea or food. Jennifer responds that she would like to see her daughter. Kayla takes Jennifer’s hand and brings her and Jack to go see Abigail.

Chad cries until the doorbell rings. His vision of Abigail disappears so he yells for her to come back. Chad then goes to answer the door to see Rafe. Rafe hates to bother him at a time like this and says he’s so sorry for his loss. Chad doesn’t want his sympathy, he wants Rafe to tell him who did this to his wife.

Leo reveals to Gwen that Abigail was murdered as someone stabbed her to death in her bedroom. Gwen asks if it was Leo.

Chad asks Rafe who did this to his wife. Rafe says they will find out and talks about the team being here all night gathering evidence, so everything is at the lab now being tested. Chad asks if they found the murder weapon. Rafe says not yet. Chad asks if there are any suspects. Rafe assures they have every available officer out there looking, chasing leads, and searching but they don’t have anyone in custody yet. Chad asks what Rafe is doing here then. Rafe responds that he wanted to see the crime scene and ask some questions himself. Chad tells him to ask then. Rafe wants Chad to go with him to the bedroom. Rafe tells Chad to take his time and they will do it whenever he’s ready. Chad asks if going up there is going to help catch the person who did this and send them straight to Hell. Rafe says yes, so Chad decides he’s ready and heads upstairs. Chad approaches the bedroom and has flashbacks of being with Abigail the last time. Rafe removes the caution tape and tells Chad to take his time as they head inside. Chad steps in and recalls finding Abigail’s bloody body on the bed.

Kayla brings Jack and Jennifer in to see Abigail’s body. Jennifer screams no and breaks down crying when Kayla uncovers Abigail. Jennifer asks for a moment alone with her. Kayla tells her to take all the time they need as she exits.

Leo questions why Gwen would think he killed Abigail. Gwen points out that Leo was in her house last night. Leo argues that she sent him there. Gwen feels he was obviously lying in wait. Leo insists he was working out a plan for revenge which did not include him going all Norman Bates. Gwen responds that if anyone understands, it’s her. Gwen understands the rage he felt when entering Abigail’s bedroom and got the revenge he so wanted. Leo flashes back to being in the DiMera Wine Cellar and putting a knife from his breakfast in to his bag.

Rafe tells Chad that they took the bedding for analysis. Rafe asks about a box in the room. Chad says there is some of Abigail’s jewelry and some cash in it. Rafe notes that it looks like the lock has been tampered with and asks if it’s always been that way. Chad says no. Chad then opens the box and finds it is now completely empty. Rafe asks for a list of everything that was in it. Chad says he’ll send some photos that were taken for insurance purposes. Chad asks if Rafe thinks this was a robbery gone wrong. Rafe says it’s hard to say as some of the pricey items were still there like Abigail’s laptop, so maybe someone just wanted to make it look like a robbery. Chad comments that there was so much blood. Rafe wonders if it wasn’t all Abigail’s or if some of it belonged to someone else. Rafe says they both know Abigail was a fighter, so whoever did this probably has wounds of their own…

Lucas goes to the Brady Pub with his hand wrapped. Lucas asks Roman if Kate is there. Roman says no as she went to go see Chad. Lucas says good because that means he has a little time before Kate kills him for standing her up last night. Roman realizes that Lucas hasn’t heard and tells him to have a seat. Lucas hopes it has nothing to do with The Devil and one of his kids. Roman responds that it’s not easy to say, so he’s just going to say it. Roman informs Lucas that Abigail was murdered last night.

Jennifer cries that Abigail looks so peaceful, like she’s sleeping. Jennifer talks about Abigail overcoming every challenge in life and how she always reminded her of her mother Laura. Jennifer says nothing will ever make her as proud as she is to be Abigail’s mother. Jennifer looks up and prays for Laura to take care of Abigail now. Jennifer cries that she doesn’t know what she’s going to do without her. Jack hugs Jennifer as she breaks down crying.

Leo tells Gwen that it’s a really nice story but he did not kill Abigail DiMera. Gwen apologizes and says she had to ask since he was at her house last night. Gwen asks if Leo saw anything and if he was in Abigail’s bedroom at all. Leo flashes back to hiding in the bathroom but tells Gwen that he wasn’t. Leo then tells Gwen that he has his own question. Leo points out that Gwen called him all hot and bothered about Abigail breaking her mug. Leo said that Gwen was so mad that she told him to find the nearest sharp object and use it to stab Abigail through the heart. Gwen thought he had a question. Leo then asks if Gwen followed through with her instruction by herself. Leo asks if Gwen killed Abigail.

Chad asks Rafe if he thinks it was a robbery. Rafe repeats that it’s possible but assures they will find them and follow every lead. Rafe declares they will not stop until they get justice for Abigail. Rafe tells Chad to call him if he needs anything as he then exits the room. Chad sits down on the floor.

Gwen asks Leo how she could possibly have killed Abigail when she’s locked up in prison 24 hours a day. Gwen flashes back to sneaking back in to the visiting room and the guard asking where she had been after missing bed check. Gwen claims the place is surrounded. Leo says he knows, but of all the ways Abigail could’ve died, it happened exactly the way Gwen wanted it to and she sure wanted it to happen. Gwen admits she had motive but not the means or opportunity, so she calls it not possible.

Chad gets up and shuts Abigail’s empty jewelry box. Chad then imagines Abigail appearing again in the room and wanting to make a baby. Chad cries that they can’t, even though he wants that so much, because she goes. Chad cries for Abigail to tell him what to do. Chad asks how to tell their children that they are never going to see their mother again.

Jennifer tells Jack to go to Abigail. Jack doesn’t want to say goodbye. Jennifer encourages him to just say whatever is in his heart. Jack then sits at Abigail’s side and cries that he’s sorry for so many things. Jack apologizes for never being the father she deserved, for being selfish, and for always falling short. Jack declares that he will regret taking her for granted and assuming they had all the time in the world. Jack says he was starting to get the hang of being a good dad and they were getting closer. Jack talks about Abigail making him proud, inspiring him, teaching him, and giving him hope. Jack says Abigail was his light that kept him going and helped him find his way. Jack states that now that’s been taken away and he doesn’t know if he will ever find his way out of this darkness. Jennifer hugs Jack.

Chad cries that maybe he could just hold Abigail one last time but then his vision of her disappears and he breaks down crying, then gets up and leaves the room.

Leo points out to Gwen that it’s not like people haven’t busted out of prison. Gwen argues that was people with cash, connections, or the last name DiMera, none of which she has. Leo supposes that’s true. Leo says if she didn’t do it and he didn’t do it, it would appear somebody else did their dirty work for them.

Lucas breaks down crying after Roman tells him about Abigail. Roman says he’s so sorry as he knows how much Lucas loved his niece. Lucas cries that she was an angel and what happened to her is unimaginable. Lucas says it takes him back to losing Will and no parent should ever have to feel that pain. Roman asks if there’s anything he needs or anything he can get him. Roman then notices Lucas’s hand and asks what he did there. Lucas calls it nothing to worry about and complains of a headache, so he asks for an aspirin which Roman then goes to get. Lucas then thinks back to Kate telling him that Chad told Abigail about Lucas kidnapping Sami. Lucas then looks over at the alcohol behind the bar and worries, wondering what he did.

Kate goes to the DiMera Mansion and tells Chad that she’s so sorry. Kate tries to hug him but Chad steps back and questions if she is sorry. Kate says of course she is sorry and heartbroken, questioning where this is coming from. Kate asks what she did wrong. Chad tells her to tell him. Kate says she’s lost. Chad reminds Kate of their conversation yesterday where he gave her the enormous courtesy of telling her that he told Abigail the truth about Lucas and she completely lost it. Kate says she was shocked and surprised. Chad shouts that Kate lost it and ripped in to him about not keeping his mouth shut. Kate argues that she was concerned about her son. Chad screams that Kate was scared out of her mind that Abigail was going to share what she knew, even after he told her she had nothing to worry about and that Abigail wouldn’t tell anyone, Kate said that wasn’t good enough. Chad yells that Kate needed assurances that Abigail wouldn’t tell anyone that Lucas kidnapped Sami. Chad then mocks the idea of keeping his voice down and screams that no one is here. Chad shouts that EJ is at Marlena’s with the kids, Tony and Anna are gone, Harold is off, and his wife is dead. Chad asks if that’s good enough for Kate’s assurance. Kate cries questioning that Chad thinks she killed Abigail to keep her quiet. Chad then asks Kate if she did.

Leo tells Gwen that he’s sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Gwen doesn’t seem so broken up about it. Gwen says she does feel bad for Jack, but Leo must be ecstatic about the unexpected assist. Leo clarifies that he wanted revenge against Abigail badly but he thinks what happened to her is horrible and makes him sick. Gwen calls that revisionist since he was just joking about wanting to slit Abigail’s throat. Leo insists that he was joking and then says he has to go. Gwen thanks him for filling her in. Leo says he’s sorry for her loss and then exits the prison.

Kayla brings Jennifer to the Brady Pub. Roman hugs Jennifer and says he’s so sorry. Jennifer then hugs Lucas, crying that she’s so glad to see him.

Kate can’t imagine the pain Chad is going through but says she knows that he can’t think she was involved in Abigail’s death. Chad responds that he doesn’t think she planned it. Kate asks what that means. Chad thinks after their talk, Kate couldn’t shake her worry about Lucas so she came over to talk with Abigail about keeping quiet and then Abigail got offended so maybe things got out of hand. Kate understands but says no matter the worry, she would never. Chad questions if she wouldn’t go to extremes to protect her kids. Kate knows he’s upset, exhausted, and not thinking straight. Kate tells Chad that she would never kill Abigail to keep her quiet and neither would Lucas. Chad questions why she would mention Lucas. Kate says that’s what this whole conversation is about because Chad told Abigail that Lucas kidnapped Sami. Chad points out that Lucas didn’t know that and then asks if he did.

Kayla exits the Pub and runs in to Steve. Kayla tells Steve that she has to get back to the hospital but Jennifer is inside with Lucas. Kayla asks where Jack is. Steve tells her that he had something to take care of. Kayla questions what but Steve says that Jack didn’t say..

Gwen sits in the prison visiting room, thinking back to Abigail breaking her mug and shouting that she would make her pay. Jack then arrives.

Leo sneaks outside where he retrieves his bag from the bushes. Leo opens it up, revealing the cash and jewelry stolen from Abigail’s box. Leo remarks that he would’ve preferred an Alemanian Emerald, but these will do just fine.

Recap written by Christine

It was the day of the Chancellor Winters launch party. Lily toasted to her team, adding that they were all family now. Lily, Devon, Nate, Imani and Amanda were there. Abby walked up. She was planning the event. Nate said Elena got called into the hospital. Imani said she would’ve refused to miss an event this important, and Nate and Amanda told her that it didn’t work that way when you were a doctor. Abby promised them a great night. Billy arrived with Jill on his arm. She hugged Devon. Jill thought the merger was a bold and savvy business move, and it meant so much more because it was family. She marveled about Neil’s children coming together like this. She was so proud of all of them, and she couldn’t wait to see what the future held for Chancellor Winters. Lily said today was the culmination of something special that started when Devon created a business with their dad, when Jill entrusted her and Billy with Chancellor, and when Nate joined them. She was glad he had Elena’s support. She added that Imani and Amanda found each other as sisters and joined the team. Lily knew their mutual love and support would take them to new heights. She said they were part of each other’s history and intrinsic to each other’s futures. She hoped they’d handle business in a way that made their parents and children proud. Everyone toasted.

Chance kissed Abby when he arrived. Since the party was going smoothly, she figured they could have that date night he owed her starting right now.

Nate was nearby when Imani’s date, Giancarlo arrived. Giancarlo admitted he wasn’t sure Imani would agree to join him tonight. She told him he had to be fearless, but as she talked to him, she was keeping an eye on Nate.

Jack chatted with Lily and Billy. Lily remarked at how far she’d come. Devon came and pulled Lily aside to deal with a work issue. Billy was happy Jack came. He raised an eyebrow when he learned that Jack found out about Phyllis’s vacation through Summer instead of through Phyllis. Jack brushed it off, saying he and Phyllis were both adults who didn’t need to get lost in the minutiae of each other’s lives. Billy thought it would be nice for Jack and Phyllis to get lost in the minutiae of each other’s lives. Jack scoffed about getting relationship advice from Billy. Jack changed the subject and asked how Billy and Victoria were dealing with Locke’s decision to stay in town. Billy said he always wanted Victoria to break free from the family, and now she was doing it and going back to Locke. Jack was shocked.

Victor and Nikki arrived, and she quietly reminded him that they were just here to celebrate Chancellor Winters. He promised to be the perfect guest. However, he did need to get a hold of Adam before the evening was out, since he was about to become the CEO of Newman Enterprises. At that point, Lily, Devon and Jill walked up. Victor said Devon and Lily were close to his heart. He’d been thinking a lot about their dad. Victor was proud of Lily and Devon, and he was sure Neil and Katherine were looking down on them. He was sure they’d do well. He told them that their bond was more important than any failures or successes.

While Devon and Lily gave an interview, Jill was across the room with Chance and Abby. Jill tried to get Chance to join the family business. Chance was happy with his job, but he said Dominic might want to join when he was old enough. Chance added that Dom was a Newman and Abbott too, so he’d have options Jill wanted to spend time with Dom. Jill commented approvingly about how lovey-dovey Abby and Chance were. She thought her grandson was glowing. Chance gave credit to Abby. He got a call about a break in one of Rey’s cases, and both ladies were in support of him going to handle it. He promised to try and come back before the party was over. Jill saw an old business rival and went over to say hello.

Jack joined Abby and asked about Chance leaving. Abby said he was taking on an extra work load because he was finishing Rey’s cases. Abby said she was taking over for Phyllis tonight. Abby was surprised that Phyllis asked her to do anything for the hotel. Jack said it wasn’t like Phyllis to leave Devon and Lily in the lurch. Abby said they were in good hands with her, and she had a vested interest in upstaging Phyllis and making sure Lily and Devon had the best night ever. Abby said Phyllis, her team and the team at Chancellor Winters did a great job setting up the party, and it was practically running itself. Jack flashed back to his recent blow up with Phyllis, when he told her they were through because she’d fallen back into her old pattern.

Devon overheard Nate giving an interview. The reporter asked Nate why he pivoted into business from medicine. Without going into detail, Nate said he had an accident that ended his surgical career. Devon flashed back to punching Nate, which lead to the cut on his hand, preventing him from doing surgery anymore. Nate told the reporter that the accident changed everything. The reporter asked if he had regrets. He was nothing but grateful for the opportunity his cousins gave him. He said he was working with family, where everyone’s opinion was equal.

Amanda approached Imani and Giancarlo and commented that they looked like they were having a good time. Imani said they weren’t having too good of a time, as she knew how the company frowned on excitement. Amanda assured Giancarlo that Imani was kidding. Amanda told Giancarlo how happy she was that he was here, and then she exchanged a look with her sister.

Adam sent Victor a text saying that something came up, but he’d come soon. Jack walked over and complimented Nikki’s look. Victor told Jack to stop flirting with his wife. Jack said that they knew the giants whose shoulders this new company was built on – Katherine and Neil. Jack was surprised Victor and Nikki were here and not dealing with personal matters. Jack said Billy told him Victoria left town with Ashland. Jack wanted Ashland to leave, but not like this. Victor hoped and prayed Victoria soon realized she made an epic mistake. Victor also hoped Jack and Kyle didn’t entertain the thought of keeping Diane around. Jack said he had nothing to do with it, but Kyle decided he wanted his mother to stay around a little longer. Nikki groaned that offering Diane a second chance was like giving a cobra a second chance to strike. Jack said Diane was Kyle’s mother. Nikki was sure that Diane wouldn’t be able to keep up the innocent facade for long and then look out. At that moment, Diane came in, and Nikki went over and told her to leave, because this was a private event. Diane sipped champagne and claimed she had no idea, but Nikki was sure that Diane had seen the signs outside about the launch party. Jack came over and said he’d deal with this, and Nikki reluctantly left.

Diane thanked Jack for the rescue, but he said he did it for Lily and Devon. Diane said she thought she could use the spa tonight since Phyllis was out of town. Jack noted that there was a spa at the Athletic Club. Diane liked the masseuse at The Grand Phoenix. A skeptical Jack commented that Diane was dressed awfully nicely for a spa visit. She said she was going to dinner afterward, and she invited him along so they could talk about Kyle, but he declined. Billy came up. Diane said she accidentally crashed, so he didn’t have to threaten to kick her out. That wasn’t what he was going to say.

Abby told Lily that she wished Chance wasn’t called away on a case. Lily asked if Abby wished Chance joined the family business instead of being a cop. Abby supported Chance’s job. She thought he was born for the role.

Billy thought Diane deserved a second chance, so he wished he could ask her to stay. Diane understood that he couldn’t, because her presence could cause drama. Nikki came barreling back over to tell Diane to get out. She threatened to call security. Jill watched it all unfold from a distance. Billy told Nikki that wasn’t necessary. Diane headed to the spa. Nikki said that she felt bad for Kyle, but one way or another, Diane had to go. Jack went to talk to Jill. Billy told Nikki that that could’ve went worse. She broached the subject of Victoria leaving with Ashland. She wanted him to convince Victoria to stay. He said he tried. Lily came up and excused herself and Billy.

Diane ran into Victor on the way to the spa. He told her she was making a fool of herself, and he asked if she thought people forgot what she’d done. She said that she didn’t forget what had been done to her either, but forgiveness didn’t require forgetting, only compassion. She left. Victor couldn’t believe he used to be married to Diane. Victor flashed back to a confrontation they had years ago. She’d come to express her condolences over something. She said she wasn’t a bad person, and she didn’t believe in holding grudges. He said she was the last person he expected or wanted to see. However, he’d agreed that holding grudges wasn’t healthy.

Devon gave Nate a pep talk before his speech. After they parted ways, Abby commented on Nate going from doctor to COO. She said she thought being a doctor was his calling, like Chance was called to law enforcement. He said it used to be when he was a surgeon, but when he lost that, everything changed. He said he was nervous about his speech. She delivered a pep talk too. He appreciated it. He said that if Elena were here, he would’ve gone to her for one. He wanted some advice from her, as someone who used to work at Newman. He said the current plan was to make a speech that was light on the details. He thought they should go into specifics though. Abby thought that he should ask Devon and Lily. Nate said that Devon was stuck on the idea of doing a broad overview. Abby understood how Nate felt, but she thought he should follow Devon’s lead. She said Devon had been doing this for a long time, and he knew what worked.

Lily had taken Billy off to a secluded corner for a kiss. She said making time for him was important business. He was proud of her. She said it was a group effort, but he told her this was her vision, and she made it happen. He was one hundred percent convinced there was nothing she couldn’t accomplish. Devon cleared his throat. He’d found Lily to tell her that the publicist wanted to go over the speeches. Lily asked Billy if he wanted to say a few words. He said she was the one from Chancellor that people wanted to hear from.

Billy ran into Giancarlo and complimented him on what he’d been doing with the marketing department. Giancarlo said Billy’s podcast division had been kicking butt, and the numbers for the Grinning Soul were especially good. Billy pretended he didn’t know who the host of that podcast was.

Imani saw Nate frowning and said that could only mean he needed more Imani. He asked what the deal was with her and her date. She said she hadn’t decided if Giancarlo was worthy of her yet. Imani had been thinking about her talk with Nate earlier, when he said he thought they were missing out on an opportunity if they didn’t share specific plans in their speech. She thought that he should go with his gut. He pointed out that Lily and Devon disagreed. She said tonight was never supposed to be a big tease. She thought this was their only shot to dazzle the crowd. He decided she was right.

Chance was with another cop at Crimson Lights. They were waiting on a search warrant. The other cop said it was a damned shame Rosales wasn’t here. He thought Rey would be proud of Chance. Chance said he asked the captain to put the cop on this case, because Rey and Chance trusted this guy. They got the warrant and headed out.

Best Lines provided by Eva

Billy: Lily. Can we talk?

Lily: Billy, can we please talk later?

Billy: No, bemuse you said some pretty harsh things to me last night, and you’ve been avoiding the conversation ever since.

:Lily I’m not avoiding it. I have a lot going on right now. I don’t have time to talk about Victoria.

Billy: Oh, I understand that. You made that clear last night. But I think it’s only fair that I’m able to explain myself.

Lily: Okay Billy, there’s a very simple solution for this. Just let Victoria and Ashland go. Respect Victoria’s autonomy as a woman and a mother.

Billy: I do.

Lily: No, stop thinking that she’s gonna put your kids’ lives in danger. There’s no need to change the custody agreement. That’s just your excuse to interfere.

Billy: No, that is not what this is about.

Lily: And, honestly, stop trying to think that you can fix Victoria’s life. This is why she wants to leave town and cut ties with her family — because everyone is trying to micromanage her choices, which is exactly what you’re trying to do

********************

Billy: Look, I don’t believe that I am the same person now as I was when I was with her, but because of that experience, I can see how this whole thing is going to unravel, and I am simply trying to stop her from getting her heart crushed her whole life derailed because once again she puts too much trust in someone.

Lily: Okay, if she’s making a mistake, it’s her mistake to make. Look, I know that it’s hard for you to sit back and just watch this, but it’s not on you to fix it. And I hate that on a day when we should be focusing on the event, we’re talking about Victoria.

Billy: Well, the way you say that, it almost makes it sound like you think I might have feelings for her still.

Lily: No, I don’t think that you have feelings for her. I just think that you are way too involved in her life. It goes beyond co-parenting.

Billy: Yeah. It’s a little bit difficult. I mean, we have a big history, you know? I can’t just cut ties like that.

Lily: Oh, you know, I have exes, too, okay? But they don’t cause issues in our relationship.

Billy: Yeah, but they don’t live in Genoa City.

Lily: Well, you know what? Victoria might leave Genoa City. So, is that why you have a problem with this?

Billy: No. This is about her not being able to let go of that monster of a person, okay? That’s what all of this is about.

Lily: Okay. I don’t know how to make this any clearer to you. I am done talking about this. You have to let this go.

Ashland: Don’t open your eyes.

Victoria: [Chuckles] Why shouldn’t I?

Ashland: It might break the spell. You see, I’ve been trying to figure out a way to make last night last forever.

Victoria: Are you afraid that I might see things differently in the cold light of day, that I might regret taking you back?

Ashland: The thought had possibly crossed my mind a time or two, yes.

Victoria: Thank you. It’s a beautiful morning. I’m happy to be here… with you. And I very much appreciate you agreeing to take things slowly.

Ashland: We can take all the time you need, as long as you haven’t changed your mind.

*****************

Jack: So, what is this fabulous idea of yours?

Diane: I would love to treat everyone for breakfast, including Harrison if he’s here.

Kyle: He’s already down for his morning nap. Someone got him all wound up last night, and it took forever to get him to sleep.

Jack: Guilty as charged.

Diane: Oh, who wouldn’t want to spend as much time as possible with that beautiful boy? As a fellow doting grandparent, I stand in solidarity with jack.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Business is so much better conducted outdoors, wouldn’t you say? Is this why people close deals on golf courses?

[ Laughs ] Absolutely. Oh, uh, speaking of bogeys, um, sorry the talk with ned didn’t go well. Eh, landed in the rough, but we got plenty more holes to play. And that is the official end of the golf metaphor. It’s getting a little weird. Yeah. Tell you what, once we show ned this, I think he’s gonna have a little bit of a change of heart. Is th– is this right? The 52% increase, that would mean that the company is — “skyrocketing,” I believe, is the term you’re looking for. It’s incredible. Who’s buying all these shares? You’re welcome. Hey, dex, listen, something’s come up. Personal. Yeah. Um… I’ll get back to you with the instructions. Gentlemen. Sorry for the interruption. Commissioner ashford, how can I be of service to you and the good people of port charles today? Actually, I’m here to speak to mr. Grey. Your office told me where to find you. Yes. They said you were on your way. Well, thanks for the heads-up there, martin. Well, we’re not doing anything criminal till 4:00. I thought it might be a nice surprise. Commissioner ashford, how may I — how can I help? I got a call from the bureau. It’s about your brother. Surprisingly, ava isn’t asking for much. Uh, define “not much.” Well, in exchange for a weekly allowance from my trust fund, all I have to do is remain at wyndemere. She wants you to stay? Thanks, grandmother. My self-esteem can always count on you for a boost. That is terrific. Honey, I’m just trying to keep up, that’s all. The last I heard, you and esme staying at wyndemere was causing friction. So what changed? Ava: I don’t need presents. All I want is for us to be open and honest with each other going forward. Oh, I totally agree. That is why I found the perfect way to thank you for giving our marriage a second chance. What’s that? I want a divorce. A divorce?! What happened to working things out? Don’t you see? This marriage of ours… there’s no saving it. It’s dead. Esme: I’m playing the long game, waiting for just the right moment for ava to learn about nikolas’s infidelity. I see. I knew you’d understand. Indeed I do. That hurts. It’s meant to. Because words can’t possibly express my disappointment. Hi. I’m hoping you can help me. My name is felicia. I know who you are, mrs. Scorpio. You do? Before I retired from the force, I worked under your husband. He’s a good man. I couldn’t agree more. What can I do for you? If you would just listen to me. Your plan is good, but mine is better. Just who do you think you’re fooling?


You did it? Yes, I told you I would. Wait. Does this mean — look, michael, I know you weren’t sold on the idea of my investing in aurora. I specifically asked you not to. I know, but I think the big picture here is really important — the stock. Is soaring. Is that because of you? Well, aurora’s traded on the open market. Anyone can buy in, and I just made sure the right person did. It’s not like I could have stopped her, man. Yeah, thank god you didn’T. Aurora shares are a hot commodity. Okay, um, how many unique investors did we acquire today? I can tell you that.

[ Clears throat ] Uh… well, um, not as many as we would have liked. It looks like carly did buy the most significant percentage of shares. Just how many shares did you buy, mom? So, what has cyrus done now? There’s strong evidence that cyrus could not have been responsible for the attack on you and the mayor when you were in protective custody. Huh. You know, laura confronted him about it. She said he insisted it wasn’t him. She said he seemed genuine. It appears that, for once in his life, cyrus was telling the truth. So who’s responsible for the attack? Unfortunately, the bureau’s investigation hasn’t yet determined who targeted you. Which means there could still be a threat. Does my sister know? I spoke with the mayor before I reached out to your office. That is important. Thank you for the update, commissioner. Give me a call if you have any information or concerns. Oh, I will. Huh. Well, full half of the glass, maybe my brother found religion after all. You don’t have to laugh this off on my account. You can admit you’re worried. Jordan: Mr. Corinthos. Hey, commissioner. Just wanted to say a quick hello. Now you have. Okay. You take care, then. Oh, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You know what? Um… you have something of mine, and I want them back. I don’t blame you one bit for having whiplash. Suddenly, ava’s determined to fix her toxic marriage and work things out “as a family.” God knows what that means. When not too long ago, she was, you know, willing to bribe me with my trust fund to move out and take esme with me. Oh. Wait a minute. Come on. Ava was gonna bribe you to move out? Yeah, it was the exact same deal but in the opposite direction. She was gonna give me five figures a week to take esme and go. You can only imagine how father felt. He was furious. Not to mention hurt. Mm. Oh, come on, now. Put down your animosity for just a minute. Pick up a little thing called empathy. I was willing to make things work with my father anyway. If ava is going to give me money for an inevitability, why shouldn’t I take it? Spencer, your relationship with money has always been problematic. I realize that. Do you, now? Yeah, you’ll be happy and proud to know that my priorities have changed. Really? So what’s most important in your life now? You just said our marriage is dead. I take it you have questions. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I do. Starting with, what the hell is going on? H-how can you say that you want to fix our marriage and then seconds later say that it’s dead? Because our marriage, the one that we’ve been struggling with, it’s been in the death throes for a while. And now that we’re ready to move forward, we have to let it go. Are you leaving me? If you’re leaving me, just say so. Of course I’m not leaving you. I’m doing the exact opposite. By ending this marriage. You want a divorce? We can clean the slate, remarry. For real this time. For keeps. You may think you look all harmless sitting there in your chair. But your eyes, ryan, they give you away. Dr. Chamberlain is here to receive medical attention, not visitors. And you are? Esme prince. And you are? You’re not a nurse. I work at spring ridge. I’m assisting the patient today. You mean inmate. Dr. Chamberlain, do you want this visitor here? Are you sure? One blink for yes, two for no. Is that right? It is. And for more complex communication, you use a board with letters. Is that right? Yes. Got it. Well, looks like you’ve been chatting away one letter at a time. You may be locked in, but as long as you have the ability to express yourself and share your poisonous thoughts with another living being, you are just as dangerous as you ever were.


What, me worry? Why should I be worried? Hardly my first go-around as a marked man, is it? Martin, you just say the word, I’ll get you round-the-clock security. Really? You’d do that for me? For you? No. But you handle my affairs. I can’t risk that information falling into the wrong hands. You are a sensitive son of a bitch, aren’t you? Well, much as I appreciate the offer, I’d have to say no. I’m not really worried about myself. I just don’t want anything to happen to laura. You two have grown pretty close, haven’t you? More than close. We’ve become family. Do anything I have to to protect her. So tell me about these new priorities, spencer. Well, I do not like ava still, and I’m not sure that I ever will. But I can recognize that she is important to the people who matter to me. And if my father loves her… …then that is something that I can learn to live with. Good. I mean, really, really good. And it’s about time. I thought you’d think so. Yeah, I do. I am glad that you have finally realized that you don’t have veto power in your father’s marriage. But you know what? I’m still bothered by something. I don’t understand this arrangement that you have with ava. Grandmother, the deal is to live there. That’s it. Making up with my father is my choice. So reconciliation is free of charge? If it’s costing anybody, it’s me. Of course it is. Spencer, do you really think that you’re gonna be able to reconcile with your father with esme around? I don’t know who you think you are, but if you don’t leave, I’m gonna have to tell the guards you’re harassing him. Who do you think let me in here? Besides, ryan told you he wants me here. You see, we go way back. Don’t we, ryan? One for yes. So, how much time have you spent with ryan? Enough. You may think you’re helping him and doing a service for him, but he is a homicidal psychopath. I’m familiar with what dr. Chamberlain has been accused of. Why do you keep calling him “doctor”? He lost his license to practice before you were born. And for good reason. -If you say so. -Oh, I know so. And he maimed and manipulated and tortured and tormented. You should be very careful. He’s very good at getting what he wants from people. I’ll take that under advisement, ms. — I’m sorry. I didn’t quite catch your name. Scorpio. Mrs. Felicia scorpio. And how do you know dr. Chamberlain…felicia? Do you want to tell her, ryan, or should I? I did not want you taking this big of a risk. But it’s my risk to take. And I respect that. I-I do. But how much is liquid? I met with my financial adviser and I took a calculated risk. Which is not really an answer. It’s the only answer you’re gonna get. Wow. You guys, aurora needed a jump start, and I wanted to speculate. And look! It’s already paid off for all of us. Yeah, it’s paid off. So far. I think it’s time to give credit where credit’s due. I have a ship sitting in the harbor, and every minute that it sits there, I lose profit and goodwill. And may I ask, what’s the cargo? Coffee. And it has a shelf life. Take it up with the harbormaster. Well, I thought because you were so gracious to come over here and say hi that I’d take it up with you. The harbor patrol, they still work with the pcpd, right? They do. But dock bureaucracy is hardly in our purview. I’m sure they’re just dotting their I’S. I’m just asking a simple question. What’s the holdup? I honestly don’t know. And I’m afraid I can’t help you, sonny. Of course you can’T. I don’t know what’s worse, people who — who watch you burn or people who light the match. This isn’t about the harbor patrol or the pcpd. What’s really eating you, sonny?


forget about it. You know what? I’ll — I’ll let my lawyers handle it. I heard about the hearing. It’s front-page news. When you testified, you knew you were letting someone down. That couldn’t have been easy for you. Yep. Well, tell my son that. You want to talk about sons, let’s talk about mine. You talking about your doctor son? And when he first arrived in port charles, did it occur to you or anyone that medicine would be his path? You know, tj was an angry kid. Angry, troubled, rebellious, especially towards his mother. And now look at him. Got to be proud, right? I am. But it was a long road. There were moments where I wasn’t sure we would ever get through, but we did. And I’m sure you will, too. You know, I appreciate this talk, but it’s different. Tj wasn’t hell-bent on… destroying you. Here we go. This calls for a toast. Oh, hear, hear. Yes. Come on. I’m not happy about this. But I appreciate it, if that makes sense. Look, you guys are doing something huge. I’m just honored to be a part of it. I guess there’s only one thing left to say. To you, mom. Yes!

[ Laughs ] And elq and to aurora. May they long reign together. Oh, and here’s to finally being rid of valentin cassadine. Cheers. Cheers. I can definitely

appreciate thedesire to protect one’s family. And a willingness to go to any lengths to do it. Valentin, everything alright? It will be, once the vote at elq goes my way. About that, what’s the probability ned’s gonna come down on your side? I mean, honestly, shouldn’t you and i be formulating some kind of a plan b? A plan b? No, there’s no plan B. Ned goes against his family and comes over to my side or it’s game over. But I’m not worried. ‘Cause he will. Given how ava feels about esme — hates. Ava hates esme. Well, and that makes me think that esme’s presence won’t make anything easier. Mm-hmm. For whom? Anybody. Much to our mutual shock, ava and I are both willing to compromise. Now, as for esme, I am going to ensure that she doesn’t stand in the way of progress. Uh-huh. You sound very determined. I am. And for several of the right reasons. Hmm. Just don’t let money blind you from the lessons you learned when you were without it. I won’T. Really? Well, if that’s the case, then maybe you won’t give up your job. Here? How many jobs do you have? Well, cameron can tell you that I certainly don’t have the patience for serving. He covers my shifts all the time, cleans up my messes. I’m certainly no great loss to this institution. Hmm. I’ll take your word for it. Speaking of cam, how’s his mother doing? See, now, that’s something that I think you should ask him yourself. I’d love to. I just, um… not sure what to say. Well, you can start with, “how are you?” You know, then move on to, “how are your brothers doing?” And then, “how’s your mother doing?” And you can keep “I’m your friend, and you can say anything to me” in your back pocket in case you need it. Well, grandma, you make it sound easy. You’ll never know until you try, spencer. I would like to see you work things out with all of your friends. And trina, too. Trina and I don’t have a friendship. And we never will. Not as long as I’m with esme. You want a divorce just so we can stay together? Exactly. That seems like a lot of extra steps just to end up in the same place. I want us to be on equal footing. Not just emotionally, but financially. Well, we’ve already torn up the post-nups. As far as romantic gestures go, that was quite unforgettable, actually. Divorcing without precondition entitles you to half of my assets, excluding what’s entailed to spencer, of course. Does any part of this appeal to you? There was a time it would have. Not anymore? Nikolas, we’ve just come through one of the biggest challenges of our marriage. You know, we’re still working our way back to each other. We haven’t even… slept together yet, you know. Is that what this is about? That’s not a problem. I mean, we consummated our marriage. We can consummate the end. No, it’s not — it’s not — it’s not about sex, really. It’s about something much deeper. What happens if we sever this union and we’re not strong enough to withstand another challenge? If we untie this knot, there’s no guarantee that we’ll tie a new one.


You know, trina may not be able to be friends right now. And can you blame her? You chose esme. I didn’t want to choose, but esme kept forcing the issue. She can be… territorial. Mm. She’s insecure. She’s alone in the world. Oh, is that what she told you? Yes. I’m sorry. It’s okay. She did tell me that — that she, uh, never knew her biological parents and that her adoptive parents were distant and cold. You know, maybe that’s part of what drew you together. Both of you grew up without a mother. Yeah, maybe esme would have made different choices had her mother been in her life. That’s — that’s rich. You know, you can have empathy for esme and not allow her to control your life. That’s exactly right. Mm-hmm. The key to esme is her past. Ryan harassed and stalked me for years. Before his infatuation with ava, I was his obsession, and that’s the short version. Mr. Chamberlain, is that true? What’s he saying? Well, let’s see. U. B… O… M. He’s saying, “you’re the bomb.” Oh. [ Chuckles ] Yeah. That’s ryan’s version of a joke. See, once upon a time, he crashed my wedding with an active explosive device. Is this young woman your new fixation? Remember, he was obsessed with ava jerome. So he put a knife in her daughter. That’s what he does to women. And he also left his brother to rot in an asylum for months. If he’s willing to do that to his own blood, what might he do to you? I’ll bear that in mind. I’m not exactly sure why I came here in the first place. Maybe it was to see if you’re still a threat. But mostly to show you that many of your intended victims are still standing. Whatever you do, don’t let him get in your head, because the moment that you have served his purposes, he will turn on you, discard you, and probably kill you. It’s not like he hasn’t done it many times before.

[ Door closes ] I know you’ve got a good heart, just like your father. I appreciate your faith, grandmother. I know that me and my father have both let you down, but here you still are. Where else would I be? City hall, maybe, for one. The mayor of port charles shouldn’t have to expend so much energy keeping her grandson out of trouble. The people I love are the best part of my life. I’m right where I should be. Well, if I got my heart from my father, I’m sure that he got it from you. I love you very much. I love you, too. And I promise that I’m going to protect and honor the people who have stood by me. And I will become the man you’ve always told me I can be. I know you will. But now you got to get back to work. I’ll see you later. Okay. How do you really feel? About what my mom did? Uh, you know, angry she did it. Pleased it’s working. There’s something else going on. What is it? Just she invested so much. The pressure is really on us to succeed more than ever. Now we’re in a better position to make that happen. Better, not certain. Okay. So you want me to present the new information to ned? Mom brought up some good points. Right now… we need all hands on deck, not just ned. Well, then… let’s go shore up some prospects. Lucy coe, this setting definitely suits you. Hmm. Hello, there, gentlemen. Michael: Would you like a drink? I would love one. I’ll have what he’s having. As you wish. So…

[ Sighs ] …How’s life post-ipo? Mm. Well, I would love to say it’s all yachting and purchasing vineyards, but no. This — this moment, to tell you the truth, this precious little moment right here is the first break I have had in weeks. No rest for the wicked, huh? Well, I am certainly that. That and savvy and resourceful. With an impeccable sense for business. Wow. Thank you. Look at you two. Okay. Clearly there’s a pitch here, so let me hear it. Aside from loving our kids, I believe parents have two jobs. The first is to raise decent, functional adults. The second is to never give up. What about if… they give up on you? If you’re as tenacious about reconciling with michael as you are about reclaiming that coffee shipment, this stalemate should end soon. Hello, jordan. Carly. Sonny, sorry to keep you waiting. I appreciate you coming by.


Jordan, before you go, are there any developments in trina’s case? I wish I had better news. So what, that means she could go to prison? We all know that esme set her up. Unfortunately, I can only testify to the evidence, not on my personal convictions. I understand that. Don’t give up. These roadblocks don’t last forever. What’s that all about? Eh, nothing, just something — something that’s going on at the docks. Okay. So, uh, you called. I’m here. Are we gonna have it out? We’re not gonna have it out in here. Oh. Alright. The winds are changing at elq, and we want to know if we can rely on your support. Oh, that’s right. There’s a shareholders meeting real soon. And last time, you voted with valentin, and we would love to shift your allegiance to us. Has valentin done a bad job? Valentin’s an effective businessman, but he’s not a quartermaine. It’s a family business. And we believe it is better for the bottom line when a member of the family actually runs it. Hmm. Okay. So just suppose I do decide to back you and this return to nepotism — not judging, by the way — what is in it for me? Can you keep a secret? Oh. Soul of discretion. Well, aurora and elq are merging. Which could portend even more growth potential for deception. Aurora commands a significant, uh, percentage of the market share. With elq, that is only going to expand. Your loyalty could mean nearly nonexistent advertising rates and a significantly higher budget for marketing. Not to mention a much wider global reach. So, wow. You two do drive a very hard bargain. So, what do you say? Can we count on your vote? You know, valentin, if the quartermaines do beat you at this game, you had a good run. It’s not as though you’d have lost to an unworthy adversary. I’m not giving up elq. I’m not suggesting you give up. I’m just saying there’s more to life. I mean, it’s not like you need the company. If the vote goes sideways, you could — you could spend more time with charlotte, take up surfing, focus on that beautiful but dangerous super-spy lady friend of yours. What’s the matter with you? When did you become so defeatist? No, no, no. Make no mistake. I’m not — I have as little intention of losing as you do. You sure about that? I’m just pointing out that it’s not the end of the world if this thing goes south. Matter of fact, if it does, no reason we can’t, too. I hear playa del carmen is lovely this time of year. Okay, you listen to me. You listen close. When nikolas and ava took wyndemere from me, I was at my lowest. And no matter how trivial it seems to you, elq has been my salvation. Message received and noted. Failure’s not an option. No, it is not. Not now. Not ever. You know, a marriage isn’t like an etch a sketch you can shake and start over. Our history will still be our history. Our mistakes will still be our mistakes. All of our triumphs and failures, they will have led us to the same place. Ava, please. Can you just trust me when I say starting a new chapter is the best way to move forward?

[ Knock on door, door opens ] Hi. [ Chuckles ] Hope I’m not interrupting. Spencer told me I could find you here. Mother, perfect timing. Ava and I have some good news. Oh. I hope. Well, I-I hope it’s that you have decided to work things out. It’s good to see you at home, ava, and that you’ve made a commitment to making your decisions together from now on. I know i have. Ava? I know you mentioned felicia, but it seems like you left out a lot of details. Because licentious, duplicitous women like felicia aren’t worth mentioning. She’s one of my great disappointments. Don’t end up on that list yourself. I did what you asked of me. Not all of it. You haven’t told ava that you slept with nikolas. And why not? And don’t tell me it has anything to do with the younger cassadine. If I had exposed nikolas’s infidelity right away, it would have exposed my agenda. Once they find out what I’m up to, it’s game over. They’ll form a united front, I’ll be kicked out, and nikolas and ava will be stronger than ever. And we don’t want that, now, do we? No, we don’T. And I know this is the last thing you want to hear, but ava and nikolas are genuinely devoted to one another. One betrayal may not be enough to split them up. Which is why we need to compound this. Make their split truly and utterly irrevocable. You may have a point, but I’m getting anxious to move on to the next phase of my plan. I need to spread my wings. Mm, and you will. It’s just a matter of time. I hope you know what you’re doing. Trust me, daddy. What I have planned will blow that family apart once and for all.


Thank you. I have to tell you that you two have definitely given me and my little, tiny, measly 1% a lot to mull over. We would appreciate a commitment as soon as you can give one. Valentin can’t beat our offer. Hm. I will… be in touch. Ta, boys. Think she’ll bite? I think she’s tempted. I mean, thanks to carly, the stock is on the rise. We count on lucy, we win ned over with the numbers… then we’re sitting pretty. Well, thank you for lunch. You’ll be earning it. I want you working around the clock to make sure I stay ceo. Ooh. Well, if that’s the reason for this little repast, maybe I should’ve ordered myself the thousand-dollar caviar burger with gold leaf. You know what gold leaf tastes like, martin? It doesn’T. You’re better off with the frittata. So says the last of the big spenders. In that case, I think I’ll get myself a doggy bag, eat the burger alone, and bill you anyway. You don’t have to finesse me into doing my job. Martin, there is one last thing we need to discuss. Ah, yes, my lovely lucy and her pivotal 1%. I told you, she’s already promised it to you. Yes, she has. And it’s the prerogative of a woman to change her mind like the weather. And I’m afraid a mind like lucy’s may be a perfect storm. Valentin, I promise you, I will do everything I have to to persuade her. You do that. You persuade her. And once lucy and ned help keep me on as ceo, then those who think they can control me will be in for a hell of a reckoning. I stepped away for a few minutes. My daughter, my granddaughter, maxie and bailey louise jones — they’re still upstairs with the doctor, but they should be done soon.

[ Elevator bell dings ] So how did quitting go? Official, this is my last shift. Cam was not happy, but family comes first. Meaning your deal with ava? Meaning you, doofus. You are my family. It’s nice to hear you say that again. Yeah, I’m sorry it’s taken me so long. I hope you know you’re my family, too, spence. Of course I do. Come on, what’s more important than family? So no more aprons, no more solo horseback riding on the cliffs. I want to spend every single free minute that I have right by my baby girl’s side. Laura, our conversation helped clarify my thoughts. And you were absolutely right, as usual. Nikolas and i have both made mistakes. But we’re ready to put that behind us and — and move forward together. Um, begin a new chapter. That is music to my ears. Together, we will forge a future where no problem is insurmountable and where love will truly conqueror all. But first, we have to get divorced. Thanks for meeting me. You said it was about the kids. It is. They’re, um… well, it’s a very difficult time for them. And in many ways, it’s easier on donna and avery because they’re young and they don’t fully understand what’s going on. They just want to know that their family still loves them. And I know that we’re all trying to reassure them of that. I mean, josslyn has been terrific. She’s spending tons of time with them, even though she’s got a lot going on right now. I love, you know, josslyn. She’s like a daughter to me. Despite what — what michael said. What’d michael say? Well, he said that, you know, after the divorce and what went on with nina that, uh… I basically threw away my relationship with my kids and… can you believe that? Yeah, I can believe it. And I agree.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Tripp: Two pair, kings and fives.

Steve: Well, dude, now I see why you’ve been making all those reckless bets. Because you thought you were gonna win this hand. Read ’em and weep. Royal flush, baby.

Tripp: Some father you are. I’m over here recuperating from near-death injuries and you won’t let me win one hand.

Steve: Now, son, would you realeel good about yourself if I just let you win?

Tripp: I wouldn’t feel broke.

Steve: Oh, money isn’t everything. Here’s to more than one full pot.

Kayla: Ooh, how’s it going in here?

Tripp: I owe him 32 bucks. And I thought insurance companies were running up hospital bills.

Kayla: Well, if you switch your stuff to gin rummy, I think the tables might turn.

Steve: Oh yeah, good old gin rummy. Kayla: It’s your favorite game. Steve: So, what do you say? When do you think this superhero can get out of here? He’s going a little stir crazy.

Kayla: Oh, well funny you should ask. I just checked your latest scans and how does tomorrow sound?

Tripp: Oh, that sounds great.

Steve: That is great. By tomorrow night you’ll be sleeping in your own beddie bye.

Tripp: Actually, there’s something I wanted to tell you. I’m not coming home with you guys.

Chanel: I cannot believe we pulled this off. Our biggest cupcake order coming in ten minutes after the bakery’s oven goes down.

Allie: What I don’t get is who knows they needs 300 cupcakes early in the morning and places the order at 5:00 P.M. The night before? Like, they had no advance knowledge that they were gonna need 300 cupcakes? Was it, like, a spur of the moment craving?

Chanel: I think it was some weird cupcake emergency. But luckily, sweet bits was up for the job.

Allie: Well, when the going gets tough, the tough get baking.

Chanel: Yeah, well I don’t feel so tough right now. What I feel is bone-tired. I really do appreciate you coming by to help me after hours.

Allie: Well, I really appreciate you giving me my job back after everything.

Chanel: I love how we now call getting serially possessed by the devil “everything.”

Allie: Well, I mean after everything you went through, okay. I wouldn’t blame you if you wanted me to just be someone you used to know.

Chanel: Well, I did get rid of any devil’s food from the menu.

Allie: I noticed. Although I’ve, like, barely had a moment to breathe today. I don’t remember the bakery ever being this busy. Seriously, how did you manage this all on your own for weeks?

Chanel: Honestly? I’m not sure how I did it without you.

Susan: Oh, goody. Oh sweet bits, they are my weakness.

[Gasps] Ooh. Maybe I shouldn’t have said that.

Johnny: Why not? A weakness for sweet bits seems to run in the family.

Marlena: Susan, it was so good of you to invite johnny over to have supper with his grandmothers.

Susan: Well, even if I had to invite you to host it.

Marlena: As long as you cook it.

Susan: Well, you know what? I know how much you two love my gumbo.

Johnny: No one makes it like you do, grandma.

Susan: Well, you know what? I figured that you wouldn’t want to set foot into that creepy dimera house, not with–aren’t these the prettiest cupcakes you’ve ever seen?

Marlena: Not with what, susan?

Susan: Uh-oh.

[Clears throat] I just didn’t want–i didn’t want to force you two to bear witness to something that you don’t approve of.

Johnny: What? You mean like threats, blackmail, bad decor?

Susan: Well, those too. But, no. What I was speaking of, dr. Marlena evans, is–and you might as well know, I think there’s something going on between my son and your daughter.

Ej: Belle, I just wanted to say how sorry I am for the thoughtless thing I said today. I never should have been so unfeeling about a child’s life. All I have to say for myself is that it was a ham-handed attempt to make you feel better.

Belle: Well, I do so want to.

[Tender music]

Make me feel better.

Ej: Belle, we shouldn’T.

Belle: Why shouldn’t we? Take me upstairs. Take me upstairs and make love to me.

Chad: I got to tell you, baby, you missed a great movie. It was the best “minions” yet. Abby? Abby? Oh, my god! Abby? Abby! Abby! Hey, what happened? Abby! Abby!

Abigail: Chad.

Chad: Hey, it’s okay. Hey, I’m–I’m here, okay. You’re gonna be fine. Abby, you’re gonna be fine, baby, okay? Hey, just hang on. Abby? Abby? Hang on for me, okay?

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

[Soft orchestration]

Johnny: What, you think that my dad has a thing for aunt belle? And that’s why she moved in with us?

Marlena: No, but you know that shawn and belle were having some problems lately. Shawn thinks he has to be responsible for jan, and belle can’t bear the idea of being under the same roof that she is.

Johnny: Got it. I can’t blame her.

Susan: And the fact–and the fact that–that belle had a very good reason for leaving her husband’s house, and she had another good reason for leaving her parents’ house. It just doesn’t explain why she went to elvis’s house. I mean, she could have went to the salem inn. She could have went on a spiritual retreat. But no, no. She went straight into–

Marlena: The fact that she went to the dimera mansion does not mean there’s something untoward going on. Belle loves shawn.

Susan: Well, I never said that she didn’T. And I didn’t say that she loves elvis. All I am saying, dr. Marlena evans, is that she is not camping out at chez dimera for the ambience.

[Soft dramatic music]

Ej: Belle, you’re upset. I don’t want to take advantage.

Belle: You wouldn’t be. I just want to forget about everything. I want this. I want you. Take me to bed.

Chad: We’re gonna get help, baby, okay.

[Phone beeps]

[Line trilling] Yes, hello? This is chad dimera. I need an ambulance at 430 lakeview drive. No, I don’t know. There’s a lot of blood. I–I don’t know what happened. I don’t–no, I don’t–i don’t see any kind of weapon.

Abigail: A knife. They had a knife.

Chad: Who–a knife? Who had a knife, baby?

Trelegy for copd.

[Soft dramatic music]

Marlena: Susan, I think we’re making johnny uncomfortable.

Johnny: No. No. I’m not uncomfortable. I’m scared. If mom ever finds out that aunt belle likes my dad, I’m not sure either one of them is gonna make it to their next birthday.

Susan: Oh, yeah. Nobody has to be psychic to know that sami brady dimera would just flip her lid.

Johnny: And we should change the subject. My grandma marlena’s already worried enough about belle, with jan having her baby tonight, and–well, everything, you know.

Susan: Oh, you know what? You’re right. You’re right. You’re right. You’re right. You know what? Dr. Marlena evans, I have been so insensitive. Can you please just forgive me? I’m sorry.

Marlena: Why don’t we just have some cupcakes?

Susan: Okay. Oh, what–these are just–what’s in this? I mean–oh, you know what i like the most is the chai ones that–that–that chanel does.

Johnny: Yeah, I don’t know. I-I just asked allie to give me an assortment, so…

Susan: Oh, so allie’s back at the bakery?

Johnny: Oh, yeah, yeah. That was super fun. Allie acted pretty cool towards me, but chanel pretended like she didn’t even see me.

Susan: Oh, I’m sorry.

Johnny: You know what, grandma susan? You’re better than a ouija board. So why don’t you tell me who chanel’s gonna end up with? Me or allie?

[Dramatic acoustic music]

Chanel: My god, listen to me. “I don’t know how I made it without you.” I mean, that’s a little over the top, even for me.

Allie: Well, actually, it was nice to hear that you missed me. At the bakery, I mean.

Chanel: I didn’t just miss you at the bakery. I’m–I’m sorry. I-I’m sending mixed signals.

Allie: No. I’m sorry if I read too much into what you said.

Chanel: Okay. Yeah. This–this is–this is awkward.

Allie: Yeah. But we found out that we still work well together. So maybe we can find out that we’re still friends.

Chanel: Yeah. And I hope I didn’t come off too obnoxious yesterday when I said “I choose me.”

Allie: No. No. I totally get it. I mean, you need to be the one to decide if you want to be with me or johnny.

Chanel: Yeah. But I was being a little “captain of my own fate” about it.

Allie: Oh, my god, did you notice johnny “dropping in” during our evening rush? It was like he was little red riding hood getting goodies for his grandma.

Chanel: Yeah. I–I saw him, but I didn’t get a chance to say “hi.”

Allie: I mean, he was totally checking in on us. Like, he was talking to me but the entire time, he was looking over my shoulder, obviously looking for you.

Chanel: I didn’t notice.

Allie: I’m really surprised that he left without trying to say, “hi.”

Chanel: You know what? I-I think he understands that–that I need time and space to figure out what I want.

Allie: I guess.

Chanel: And honestly, horton, you were just ready to marry tripp. I think that maybe you need the same thing.

[Soft dramatic music]

Tripp: I hope you’re not upset with me.

Steve: No. No. I’m not upset. You’re single again. You staying with dad and step-mom, it’s gonna cramp your style, right?

Tripp: Well, the thing is, dad, it’s not that.

Kayla: Then what is it?

Tripp: Well, first of all, you’ve both been amazing, letting me stay with you all this time.

Kayla: Well, you’re our son. So of course, we love having you there.

Steve: And it was no big deal because you’ve been spending most of your nights here in the on-call room instead of in your own bed.

Tripp: Yes. But I won’t be doing that anymore, either. I’m not moving across town to a bachelor pad. I’m leaving salem.

Chad: I am applying pressure, but it’s not–nothing’s working! No, just hurry up, please!

[Dramatic music]

Hey, hey, hey, abby? Abby? Hey, listen, I need you to stay with me, okay? I need you to open up your eyes for me, okay. Hey, hey, abby. I need–baby, I need you to tell me what happened, okay?

Abigail: [Mumbles softly]

Chad: What?

Abigail: The kids. Take care of the kids.

Chad: Help! Somebody help!

Belle: Oh, my god.

Ej: What the hell?

Chad: I don’t know what happened. I think–I think somebody stabbed her, but they must still be in the house. I don’t know where the kids are. Please find thomas and charlotte, okay? Please find my kids.

Ej: Have–have you called the police?

Chad: Yes, I called them. Just find my kids!

Belle: We will!

Chad: Baby, baby, the kids are gonna be fine, okay. Hey, the kida are gonna be okay. And so are you. I promise, okay? Hey baby, baby, baby, I just need you to hold on, okay? Okay? Hold on, please. Abby, please. Okay, snacks and popcorn are gonna be expensive.

Johnny: So grandma, how does the story end? Does chanel end up with allie or me?

Marlena: I don’t think it’s fair to put susan on the spot.

Susan: It’s okay. It’s all in good fun. If you get the answer you want. Okay. Well, I’m gonna need something personal. I guess this–this will do just fine. Okay?

[Exhales deeply]

[Clears throat]

[Breathes deeply] I’m getting something. Hold on. Hold on. I’m getting something.

[Chuckles]

Johnny: What?

Susan: Oh, it’s dark chocolate with hazelnut filling.

Johnny: Come on, grandma,

Susan: All right. Just for you, I will do .

[Breathes deeply] Oh, my goodness!

Johnny: Grandma, what–what–what do you see? What do you see?

[Dramatic music]

A long time ago.

Chanel: I know, but he did almost die for you.

Allie: Yeah, and I will always be grateful for that, but that’s all, and tripp knows that. And now I know exactly who I want to be with.

Chanel: Yeah. So–so you said.

Allie: Hey, how’s your mom, by the way? I should have asked.

Chanel: Um, well, you know her. She’s trying to be brave, but I know deep down she is terrified of going to prison for the rest of her life.

Allie: I’m so sorry she’s going through this. How are you doing?

Chanel: Well, you know, mama has a really big personality, so it’s–it’s really quiet without her here. Empty. Lonely.

Allie: Hey.

Chanel: Until tonight.

Steve: So you’re leaving salem?

Tripp: Not forever. It’s just, you know, it’ll be a couple of months before I’m ready to get back to work, so–

Steve: Yeah. So you need a–you need a break. How about you and i take a little road trip?

Kayla: So, tripp, what are you gonna do? You gonna go to the beach, or you’re gonna work on your tan or what?

Tripp: Actually, I talked to stephanie and joey last night about maybe spending some time with them in seattle this summer.

Steve: Oh.

Kayla: I think that is a great idea. I know they would love to spend time with you and see you and–right?

Steve: Yeah. Yeah. I think–I think it’s a great idea. Yeah. Just caught me by surprise, that’s all.

Tripp: Kind of surprised me too. I think it’s that near-death experience kind of thing.

Kayla: I can understand that.

Tripp: Yeah. It got me thinking, you know, about what really matters. For me, that’s family. I really like steph and joe, but I want to get to know them as my sister and my brother.

Steve: Well, that makes me happy.

Tripp: I’ve been thinking about going out there for a while, you know, but it was always, you know, “later, when I have the time.” You know, lying in this bed has made me realize that you never really know how much time you actually have,things that really before it’s too late.

Abigail: Chad.

Chad: Hey, baby. No, it’s okay. Shhh, I need you to save your energy, okay? The ambulance is gonna be here any minute. I promise you.

Ej: We found the kids. Belle’s taking them to her mother’S.

Chad: Are they okay? Hey by, do you hear that? The ambulance is here.

Ej: I’ll go down, show them up here.

[Siren blaring]

Abigail: Chad.

Chad: Yeah, baby?

Abigail: I’m so cold.

Chad: Oh. Hey. Hey, hey, abby, abby? Hey, hey, abby? Abby, I need you to open up your eyes. Abby? Abby? Hey, abby? Abby, don’t you die on me, abby. Abby, don’t you die on me, okay?

Steve: Well, I understand why you’re leaving, but we’re really gonna miss you.

Tripp: I’ll be back.

Kayla: Well, I hope so. Just know that there is a place for you with us and with the hospital. You can come back anytime you want.

Tripp: Thank you for everything. You’ve been amazing.

Kayla: Amazingly selfish. No, really, you are the best intern in your cohort. I mean, you are such an asset to this hospital. You–you just make me look good.

Tripp: Yeah, well, we both know that it was you who made my life easier. I mean, those late night intubation lessons.

Kayla: Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, excuse me, I got to give him a little hug on that. Oh, baby, good luck, all right? Oh, wait, wait, wait. Sorry. Incoming. Oh, oh, I got to go.

Steve: What is it?

Kayla: It’s the er. They’re understaffed, and there’s a stabbing victim coming in. So I’ll see you, okay?

[Soft dramatic music]

Steve: Well, whoever it is, I hope they’re okay.

Chad: They never got her pulse back in the ambulance. So she probably didn’t even know I was there.

Ej: Hey, hey, I’m sure she did.

Kayla: Chad! Chad, are you hurt?

Chad: No, it’s not mine. It’s–it’s abigail’S. Can you please help her?

Steve: So buddy… you sure you want to do this?

Tripp: I know what you’re thinking. That I’m running away.

Steve: No, I’m not thinking that. I think you need to regroup, right?

Tripp: Yeah. That’s–that’s what I’m doing.

Steve: Okay. Have you told your mom about this?

Tripp: No. I–I wanted to tell you and kayla first. I think I’ll tell mom with the car running and my suitcases in the trunk.

Steve: Oh, so you think she’s gonna have a big reaction?

Tripp: Nah. Nah, you know how stoic she is.

Steve: Oh, yeah. Good luck with that. And what about–

Tripp: Allie?

Steve: Yeah.

Tripp: Yeah. That is a good question.

Allie: Well, if you ever want to get out of here for a night, we could go bowling or something.

Chanel: Bowling? Mm-mm, maybe we could go do, like, goofy golf or something.

Allie: I was trying to come up with something neutral, okay? All right, you, me, and johnny can go axe throwing together.

Chanel: Yeah. That’s more like it.

Allie: Okay.

Chanel: Mmm, chef’s kiss. It is the perfect ratio of cardamom and lavender. Did you try it?

Allie: No, I don’t like cardamom.

Chanel: Hm, and here I thought I knew everything there was to know about you.

Allie: But I have learned that I love lavender.

[Tender music]

[Phone ringing] Hey, tripp.

Tripp: Hey, allie, I was just wondering, are you busy right now?

Allie: Not really. Chanel and I were just finishing up work for the day.

Tripp: Is she with you now?

Allie: Yeah. Why?

Tripp: There’s just something I wanted to talk to you both about. Do you think you could come over to the hospital?

Allie: Sure. When?

Tripp: Now?

[Soft dramatic music]

Susan: Hmm.

Johnny: What do you see?

Susan: Honey, it’s just blurry. It’s blurry, and I–i just don’t see allie.

Johnny: What? What is it?

Susan: I–I really–i really–I really need to call elvis.

[Knocking] Oh, here it goes.

Marlena: Oh, belle. You’ve come back.

Susan: Oh, boy, this is bad.

Marlena: What’s going on?

Belle: Uh, charlotte and thomas are in the car with the nanny. Can I bring them up?

Marlena: Of course you may. What’s happened?

Belle: Someone broke into the mansion.

Johnny: What?

Marlena: Okay. Tell me what happened.

Belle: It’s abigail.

Chad: Why won’t anybody tell me what’s going on? I’m gonna go to check to see how she’s doing.

Ej: They told you they need room to do their work.

Chad: Ej, I just–I wanna be with her.

Ej: Chad, come on. Hey, kayla. Hey.

Kayla: I’m–I’m sorry, chad.

Chad: No.

Kayla: We did everything we could, but we lost her. The world is full of make or break moments.

Chad: No, that’s not true.

Ej: Chad, I’m so sorry.

Chad: No, I’m gonna–I’m– you don’t know what you’re talking about. No, dr. Rolf is gonna fix this. You got a phone?

Kayla: No, no, no, chad. Chad, chad, you need to listen to me for a second, okay? You did everything right. You put–put pressure on the wound, you called 911. The emts and the er staff did cpr for over 60 minutes. She lost too much blood. Dr. Rolf cannot help her.

Chad: I can’t give up on her. I can’t give up on her.

Ej: Chad, come on. Let’s sit down.

Chad: No. Ej, it can’t be right. It can’t be. It can’t be.

Ej: Let’s sit down.

Chad: It can’t be.

Ej: Come on.

Allie: Hey, tripp.

Steve: Hey.

Chanel: You’re looking a lot better than the last time I saw you.

Tripp: Yeah. I feel a lot better too. I’m actually getting discharged tomorrow.

Allie: That’s great.

Steve: Hey, does anybody want some coffee? I’m gonna go get some.

Chanel: Oh, hospital coffee? No thanks.

Steve: Fair enough.

Allie: So is everything okay?

Tripp: Yeah. Yeah. No. Everything’s fine. I just wanted to tell you something, and I thought you should hear it from me.

[Soft dramatic music]

Belle: I’m sorry to have to tell you.

Marlena: I’m glad you brought the children here. Are you all right?

Belle: I’m fine. Numb.

Johnny: Belle, what happened?

Belle: I don’t know. The police are at the house right now trying to figure out who got in and how.

Susan: And elvis?

Belle: He’s fine. He’s fine. He went to the hospital with chad and abigail.

Marlena: Is there any word abigail’s condition?

Belle: Not yet.

Johnny: I–I gotta go. I need to be there.

Marlena: Of course. And tell chad we’re praying for them all. Susan, are you all right?

Susan: I just got a terrible chill.

[Ominous music]

Chad: I need to– I need to be–I need to see–be with my wife. I need to see her.

Kayla: Of course.

Ej: I’ll be here.

Chad: Abigail was worried sick about the kids. Will you please go and make sure that they’re okay.

Ej: Belle’s with them. I’m not going to leave you right now.

Chad: Ej, I–I need to be alone with my wife.

Ej: Okay, but if you need anything–anything, you’ll call, right?

[Somber music]

Chad: Where is she?

Kayla: This way.

One prilosec otc in the morning

Chanel: So, let me get this straight. Just when you finally stop hating me, you decide to up and leave town?

Tripp: I never hated you. Okay, okay, I strongly disliked you there for a while, but now I hope we’re friends?

Chanel: Yeah, we are. I mean, you may be the only friend that I’ve made in salem that I haven’t slept with. Oh. Too fresh?

[Chuckles] Sorry. But I really do wish you the best, and don’t stay away too long, okay? And make sure you bring me back a bumbershoot souvenir or something, okay?

Tripp: Will do.

Chanel: All right. Now I’m gonna discreetly exit like your dad did.

[Soft dramatic music]

Allie: You’re leaving because of me, aren’t you?

Johnny: Dad!

Ej: Johnny.

Johnny: I–I heard about abigail. Belle said she was stabbed?

Ej: That’s–that’s right.

Johnny: How? I mean, that–that house is supposed to be like–like a fortress. Do we know who did it? How they got in?

Ej: It’s–it’s harold’s night off. Tony and anna are away. Belle and I– we didn’t see anything. The–the police are searching the house for evidence.

Johnny: Okay. So–so–so how bad is it? Does she have to stay– stay overnight?

Ej: Johnny.

Johnny: No. No. No. It’s–it’s abigail. She can’t–

Ej: Johnny, she died.

Johnny: But–chad, the kids–

Ej: Hey, I know.

Johnny: This can’t be.

Ej: I know. I know.

Johnny: Where’s uncle chad?

Ej: Uh, he’s in there with her. I wanted to stay, but he wanted me to go check on the kids. How in the name of god are we going to tell them about this?

Johnny: Uh, what– what can I do?

Ej: What can any of us do? Help chad. Help the kids get through this. I better go.

Johnny: Yeah. I’ll–I’ll stay. See if chad needs anything.

Ej: Okay, I love you, son.

Johnny: I love you too.

[Exhales deeply]

[Somber music]

Chanel: Oh, this isn’t the lobby. Gio, what are you doing here?

Marlena: Okay. The nanny’s getting the children settled in. Where’s–where’s susan?

Belle: She’s making tea. Why won’t anyone call?

It was just so awful. Abigail was so pale, and there was blood everywhere. And chad–

Marlena: God.

Belle: And the kids. They don’t know, and i didn’t know what to say to them. And the longer we don’t hear anything, the more scared I am that abigail’s–

Marlena: Sweetie, oh, I’ve got you. I’ve got you.

Chad: Can I be alone with her?

Kayla: Yeah. Take all the time you need.

Chad: I love you, baby.

I love you so much. I will love you forever.

My moderate to severe plaque psoriasis…

Tripp: No. I’m not leaving because of you. I can’t go back to work right now, so I’m gonna do some things I never had time to do before.

Allie: You’re gonna go somewhere a little calmer than salem?

Tripp: That place doesn’t exist. Allie, I mean this. I want you to be happy. I really do.

Allie: Hey. Right back at you. And I’m going to miss you more than you know, and so is henry.

Tripp: I’m just going to seattle.

Steve: Oh, I can come back later.

Tripp: No, no, no. We’re good.

Kayla: There you are.

Steve: Sweetness?

Kayla: You know, the patient that–the stabbing?

Steve: Yeah.

Kayla: It was abigail.

Steve: Abigail? Is she all right?

Kayla: No, she–she died. She died.

Steve: Oh. Oh, no, no.

Johnny: Abigail. I don’t think I ever told her I loved her, but I did.

Chanel: I didn’t know her very well, but she was always really nice to me.

Johnny: Yeah. I don’t know if chad, the kids–oh, my god, aunt jennifer, uncle jack. I don’t know how they’re gonna get over this.

[Somber music]

Marlena: Oh, thank you, susan.

[Sighs] Do you–do you think we should call ej?

Belle: Oh, I don’t know. He’s with chad.

[Knocking] Ej. She’s gone, isn’t she?

Ej: Yeah.

Marlena: [Sobs]

Chad: You are my whole life. Thomas and charlotte… you’re everything to us.

[Sobs] Why?

[Sobbing] Why?

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Ridge: Come in here. Please. You and paris? That’s your future now?

Carter: I wanted to tell you, okay? I– I didn’t know where things were going.

Ridge: Oh, okay. What– what about zende? They’re dating.

Carter: They were. Not anymore. It got messy for a while, but zende’s okay with it.

Ridge: Oh, zende’s okay with it. Well, if he’s okay with it, then there’s no problem at all. What are you doing, carter? You keeping secrets? You– you’re not telling me things? What– what is this about?

Quinn: You know, you don’t have to hide your feelings from me.

Eric: What do you mean?

Quinn: I know how you care about your family. I know you’re worried about steffy and the kids in europe and– and ridge living here. You never tell me anything. You just say, “uh, oh, yeah, everything is okay.” And then you run off to the club.

Eric: No, no, you’re right. You’re right. I’m sorry. I just don’t see why I should put any of that on you.

Quinn: Because I’m your wife. I’m your partner. You’re supposed to open up to me. Please eric, don’t shut me out.

Eric: Hope?

Hope: Um. Sorry. Uh– you’re obviously in the middle of something, so I can… I can go.

Eric: You know, is there anything I can do for ya?

Hope: Well, ridge said that you wanted to give some input into the next collection but if this isn’t a good time for you, I– I totally understand. I know things have been pretty crazy lately.

Eric: Well, thank you. That’s very considerate of you. Thank you.

Hope: Well, with everything going on, I’m just trying to be as useful as I can be.

[ Machines beeping ]

Li: This is what you need, finn, rest. Heal from this trauma. You’re getting stronger every day. I can feel it. They didn’t think you survived. No reason to hope. But they didn’t know what a force you were. Or how hard I’d fight to keep you alive.

[ Rhythmic beeping ]

Eric: Hope, you’re absolutely right. This is not a good time. Uh, I have an appointment at the club I can’t be late for. I have to go.

Hope: Oh, okay.

Eric: But we’ll discuss this at uh, a later date. All right?

Hope: All right.

Quinn: But– but you’ll be home later?

Eri y>>I’ll text you.

Quinn: Oh. Okay. Well, I– I love you. Have fun.

Carter: Look, man, my life’s in limbo right now and I feel stuck. All right? I’m frustrated. It’s like I can see what I want. It’s right in front of me and I can’t have it.

[ Knocking ]

Taylor: Hello? I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Pam said that you’re free. I–

Carter: He is.

Ridge: We’re not done.

Carter: He’s all yours, taylor.

Taylor: Okay. Um, what was that? What is– what is going on?

Ridge: Apparently, carter is involved with paris.

Taylor: I thought she was with zende.

Ridge: Yeah, I thought that, too, but things change quickly around here. He wants to have a future with her but he doesn’t seem that happy about it. I’m worried about him.

Taylor: I can see that, I’m sorry.

Ridge: It’s all I can do these days, right? Worry about things, worry about my friends, worry about my family.

Taylor: Family. Yes, I know. I un– I understand that. Like I’m– I’m– I’m glad that steffy and the kids took this trip but– it’s so hard to imagine them being forced to live a life without finn.

Li: No one knows what I’ve done, finn. Nobody knows you’re alive. I need you to open your eyes, finn. Come back to me. Come back to me, finn. New lash paradise mascara from l’oreal paris.

Hope: Um, I’ll get going. But– before I do, I…. I just have to ask, quinn, is everything all right?

Quinn: It’s fine!

Hope: Okay. Well, I– I didn’t mean to intrude but I did overhear you and eric when I came in and it–

Quinn: Everything is fine.

Hope: But you know, eric seemed good. Um, but I was actually– I was asking about you.

[ Knocking ]

Carter: Hope.

Hope: Carter.

Carter: Um, I uh, get the feeling that I’m interrupting.

>>Hope: Oh, no, no. Pam told me that eric has been working from home and I just thought I would stop by and catch him but–

Quinn: Well, that’s hard to do these days.

Carter: He’s not here?

Quinn: Are you looking for eric, too?

Carter: Yeah.

Quinn: Well, you missed him. Just a little while ago, he went to the club.

Hope: Which is actually where I was heading before I came over here. Uh, douglas is at a pool party and I need to drop something off to him. So, once again, I’m really sorry for interrupting and– and for overhearing everything.

Quinn: It’s okay, hope. You didn’t overhear anything. Nothing’s going on. Eric and I are fine. We had a little stumble in our marriage, but we’re working hard to overcome it. And I… I’m lucky to be with eric and I know he feels the same way about me.

Donna: Thank you, lucas!

Eric: Uh, well, um, pickleball is a pretty fun game, I gotta say.

Donna: Well, the outfits are cute. I’ll give you that.

Eric: Yeah, well, the outfit looks pretty good on you.

Donna: Oh, really?

Eric: Yes–

Donna: Well, you look quite dashing yourself.

Eric: Thank you.

Donna: Almost like you actually even play.

Eric: I do.

[ Donna scoffs ]

Eric: I don’t play as much as we say I do, but I play.

Donna: Okay.

Eric: If I played that much I would be club champion.

Donna: Hah, well, I’m– I’m just glad that you didn’t retire from the sport.

Eric: You know, it’s pretty hard to give up something that makes you feel so good.

Donna: Speaking of things that make you feel good…

[ British accent ] Would you like a little honey with your tea?

Eric: [British] A little honey with my tea? Yes.

Donna: Yes?

Eric: Yes. Thank you.

Donna: Okay. Here’s a spot of tea. Honey.

Eric: Just a little. Just drip–

[ Donna giggles ]

Eric: Thank you.

Donna: Oh. Well, not to spoil the mood or anything. I just was, I don’t know, a little surprised to uh, get your message. I wasn’t sure if you were comfortable meeting like this.

Eric: Well, I– uh– I wasn’t able to give it up, I don’t think.

Donna: You’re still feeling guilty about quinn?

Eric: Yes, I am. I– I don’t like keeping things from her. I don’T. But when work is hectic and there’s all this stress in my family, all I can do is think of you, coming here and being with you. There’s a lightness and a levity about you and I– I just can’t uh, give it up. I mean, I need that so much in my life right now.

Taylor: You know, I wonder how li is doing.

Ridge: I’ve been thinking about her, too.

Taylor: I left her a message and I told her that steffy and the kids went out of town.

Ridge: Nothing, huh?

Taylor: That– no, I haven’t heard back from her.

Ridge: Well. We all grieve in our way, right?

Taylor: Yeah but she doesn’t need to struggle through this alone. We’re family.

Ridge: Always will be.

Taylor: Let’s call her. I want her to know that we’re here for her.

[ Machines beeping ]

[Phone ringing]

Li: Hello, taylor?

Taylor: Hi, li. Um, I have you on speakerphone. Ridge is here.

Ridge: Hey, good to hear your voice.

Taylor: How are you?

Li: Keeping busy.

Ridge: Well, are

you back at work or…

Li: I’m really focused on an outside case. Given me a sense of purpose.

Taylor: That’s good. That’s– that’s very important. You know, I- I left you a message and I– I told you that, uh, you know, steffy and the kids have gone out of town. I didn’t hear back from you. So we just– we wanted to– we wanted to check in and see if there was anything we could do for you.

Li: No, thank you. I have everything I need right here.

Ridge: And if that changes, all you have to do is call.

Taylor: You know, li, th–finn’s death was a profound loss for all of us. And, you know… I have a question. Um. It might sound insensitive. I– I don’t want to upset you.

Li: I’m listening.

Taylor: It would

be wonderful if we could get

some of finn’s ashes

for steffy. It would be wonderful if she could have a memorial for her husband.

Li: So you can all say

your goodbyes and move on?

Taylor: Well, so that we can– so that we can celebrate his life, and all the joy he brought to the world.

Ridge: Celebrate the great father he was.

Li: My son had an amazing future. But then he got mixed up in all this.

Taylor: I can hear the– the pain in your voice, li. You know, I am– I am happy to meet you somewhere if you’d like to talk or– or I– I know a wonderful grief counselor who’s so great.

Li: I’m not grieving for my son. Finn will always be with me.

[ Call hanging up ]

Ridge: She hang up on you?

Taylor: Li? She’s–

Li: Don’t worry, son. I’m here. I’m going to take care of you. Get you through this. You will recover. Hi, I’m karen.

Donna: You’re not in a rush to get home or to the office?

Eric: No, no. I’m happy where I am right now.

Donna: Me too.

Eric: You know, you uh… you called this our oasis. Are you certain you never… that you never really want to go anywhere else, and maybe go out together? To dinner, or an event or something?

Donna: Oh, stop. I don’t need all that to know that I’m important to you.

Eric: Oh, you are. All this time with you, this time here and these afternoons. I mean, it’s just absolutely perfect.

Donna: As long as we don’t run out of honey, right?

Eric: Well, we can’T. Because you’re my honey.

Donna: Why? Because I’m so sweet?

Eric: Yeah and mostly because I’m just, I’m absolutely stuck on you.

Donna: Oh, that is so corny! Oh!

Eric: Oh, well come on– oh, yeah?

Donna: I’m sorry.

Eric: Oh, is that what you want?

[ Donna squealing ] Eric: There you are! I’m got you– I got you. Here it is. Here!

Quinn: Did you really come here to see eric?

Carter: I knew there was a chance you could be here, but… no.

Quinn: You can’t do this. You can’t just show up like this.

Carter: I needed to talk to you in private.

Quinn: Why? Did– did you come to your senses and– and give up this crazy idea to get involved with paris again? I mean. Carter, come on. Why are you doing this?

Carter: I have to do this quinn because I can’t be with you.

[ Alarm ringing ]

Quinn: Oh, no.

Carter: What?

Quinn: It’s an alert from the smart ring. Something’s going on with eric.

Ridge: I know you don’t like when I use that word, but, um, the way li was acting was normal, right?

Taylor: You know, some people grieve by–

Ridge: I know. We all grieve in different ways. I get that. But what just happened didn’t make sense to me.

Taylor: Yeah, I– I can understand her not wanting to face what happened. We’ve been there, you know, but… but not allowing steffy to have any closure or to memorialize her husband.

Ridge: It just seems to me like she is not accepting that finn is gone.

[ Rhythmic beeping ]

Li: You’d want them to know. You don’t want steffy and your family to grieve while you’re still here. But I can’t think of what they need right now. I have to focus on you. And you have to focus on getting better. You need to heal. You did what you could for steffy. Now you have to take care of yourself. Steffy’s looking after your son and I’m looking after mine. Finn? Finn, can you hear me? Finn? More protection,

Quinn: It’s happening again.

Carter: His heart rate?

Quinn: It’s spiking again!

Donna: No more honey jokes! Oh!

Eric: Oh, I got– I got a pot of them.

Donna: Don’t you dare!

Eric: You can’t run away from me. Just– just hang on. I’m gonna be all right, I just need to–

Donna: Oh, stop. I’m not falling for–

Hope: Eric–?

Donna: That one!

Eric: No, no, really.

Donna: No!

Eric: I’m gonna be okay. I just wanna catch my breath, that’s all.

Donna: Eric, you okay?

Eric: I think so.

Donna: Eric.

Eric: Soon as I do this.

Donna: I– oh!

Eric: I got you.

Donna: I can’t believe– oh!

Eric: Come here. Come here.

Li: Finn, sweetheart, it’s– it’s mom. I’m here with you. Can you hear me? If you can, squeeze my hand, open your eyes.

[ Rhythmic beeping ] Come on. You can do it. I’m never giving up on you.

Taylor: The loss of a child is one of the most traumatic things a person can experience. There’s no– there’s no normal reaction.

Ridge: I’m not, that’s not what I meant. I ju– I meant she reacted in a way that you weren’t expecting.

Taylor: It’s not what I hoped. She– she’s a doctor. She prides herself on saving lives. And she couldn’t save her son.

Ridge: Ah. Put it that way. It makes sense to me.

Taylor: Yeah. Just… cuts to the– the very core of who she is, you know?

Ridge: So what do we do? How do we help her?

Taylor: Well, she’s– she’s shutting us out. All we can do is, just be there for her.

[ Knocking ]

Baker: Ridge.

Ridge: Baker, hi.

Baker: I’m glad you’re both here.

Taylor: What’s going on?

Baker: Is steffy in the building?

Ridge: No. Why?

Baker: I’ve got some urgent news about sheila carter.

Li: Eye movement detected. No corresponding change in vital signs, no change in awareness, still no response to stimuli. I’ll continue to monitor for other signs of progress.

[ Machines beeping ] Keep fighting, sweetheart. I know you’re coming back to me.

[ Rhythmic beeping ]

[ Knocking ]

[ Knocking persists ]

[ Knocking ] All right, all right, I’m coming. Who is it?

Sheila: Hello, li.

Li: Sheila.

Sheila: Where is my son?

Days of Our Lives Update

Days of Our Lives logo

Update written by Joseph

Allie and Chanel talk at Chanel’s home about having to do extra work at the Bakery. Chanel mentions not feeling tough but appreciates Allie coming over to help her after hours. Allie responds that she appreciates Chanel giving her job back to her after everything that happened. Allie talks about not remembering the Bakery ever being this busy and wonders how she ever managed it on her own. Chanel admits she doesn’t how she did it without her.

At John and Marlena’s, Susan excitedly has a cupcake from the Sweet Bits Bakery. Johnny remarks that it must run in the family to have a weakness for Sweet Bits. Marlena comes in and comments on Susan inviting Johnny over to have dinner with both of his grandmothers. Susan mentions making gumbo and knowing they wouldn’t want to step foot in the DiMera Mansion which Marlena questions. Susan says she doesn’t want Marlena to witness something she doesn’t approve of which Johnny questions. Susan then reveals that she thinks there is something going on between Belle and EJ.

Outside the DiMera Mansion, EJ apologizes to Belle for what he said earlier and being unfeeling about a child’s life. EJ calls it a very ham-handed attempt to make her feel better. Belle says she does want to. Belle then asks EJ to make her feel better as they start kissing. EJ stops and says they shouldn’t but Belle asks why not and tells EJ to take her upstairs and make love to her as they continue kissing.

Chad returns home from the movies, shocked to find Abigail’s bloody body on their bed. Chad frantically asks what happened as Abigail starts to regain consciousness. Chad tries to encourage that she’s going to be okay.

Johnny questions Susan thinking that EJ has a thing for Belle and that’s why she moved in with them. Marlena explains that Belle and Shawn are just having problems lately since Belle can’t bear that Shawn feels responsible for taking care of Jan. Susan says that Belle had good reasons to leave but it doesn’t explain why she went to the DiMera Mansion instead of the Salem Inn. Marlena argues that it doesn’t mean there is something going on. Marlena insists that Belle loves Shawn. Susan clarifies that she didn’t say she didn’t or that she loves EJ, just that she’s not camping out at the DiMera Mansion for the ambience.

EJ tells Belle that he doesn’t want to take advantage. Belle assures that he wouldn’t be as she wants this and wants him. Belle tells EJ to take her to bed as they kiss inside.

Chad calls for an ambulance and says there’s a lot of blood but he doesn’t know what happened. Chad notes that he doesn’t see any weapon. Abigail manages to say that they had a knife. Chad questions who did.

EJ and Belle continue kissing inside and begin to head upstairs together.

Marlena thinks they are making Johnny uncomfortable. Johnny says he’s not uncomfortable but scared because if Sami ever finds out that Belle likes EJ, he’s not sure they will make it to their next birthdays. Susan agrees on Sami flipping her lid. Johnny suggests changing the subject since Marlena is worried enough about Belle after Jan had her baby tonight. Susan agrees and apologizes to Marlena for being insensitive. Marlena suggests they just have some cupcakes. Johnny says he just asked Allie to give him an assortment from the bakery. Susan questions Allie being back at the Bakery. Johnny responds that Allie acted cool towards him but Chanel pretended like she didn’t even see him. Susan says she’s sorry. Johnny then says that Susan is better than a Ouija board, so he asks Susan to tell him if Chanel is going to end up with him or Allie.

Chanel jokes with Allie about saying how she made it without her. Allie is glad to hear she missed her. Chanel apologizes for sending mixed signals while Allie apologizes for reading too much in to what she said. They agree that this is awkward. Allie says they found out they still work well together so maybe they’ll find out they are still friends. Chanel hopes she didn’t come off obnoxious by choosing herself. Allie understands that she needs to decide if she wants to be with her or Johnny. Allie brings up Johnny dropping in during their evening rush. Chanel admits she saw him but didn’t get a chance to say hi. Allie says Johnny was checking in on them and obviously looking for her. Allie is surprised Johnny left without trying to say hi. Chanel thinks he understands that she needs time and space to figure out what she wants. Chanel points out that Allie was just ready to marry Tripp, so she might need the same thing.

Tripp lays in his hospital bed and tells Steve and Kayla that he hopes they aren’t upset about him moving out. Steve understands that he’s single again so he doesn’t want to stay with his dad and stepmom. Tripp clarifies that it’s not that and says they’ve been amazing in letting him stay with them all this time. Kayla and Steve assure that they love having him. Tripp then announces that he is leaving Salem.

Chad remains on the phone with 911 and cries that he’s applying pressure but nothing’s working. Chad tells them to hurry up and hangs up. Chad urges Abigail to stay with him and open her eyes. Chad needs her to tell him what happened. Abigail tells Chad to take care of the kids. EJ and Belle kiss in the hallway until hearing Chad scream for help. Chad yells to them that he doesn’t know what happened but thinks someone stabbed her and they might still be in the house. Chad orders them to find his kids so EJ and Belle rush back out of the room. Chad promises Abigali that the kids are going to be fine and continues pleading with her to stay with him.

Johnny asks Susan if Chanel ends up with Allie or him. Marlena doesn’t think it’s fair to put Susan on the spot. Susan says she’ll need something personal and uses her cupcake. Susan then screams so Johnny asks what she sees.

Allie tells Chanel that she and Tripp were over a long time ago. Chanel points out that he did almost die for her. Allie says she’ll always be grateful for that but that’s all and Tripp knows that. Allie declares that now she knows exactly who she wants to be with. Allie asks Chanel about her mom. Chanel says she’s trying to be brave but she knows she is terrified of going to prison for life. Allie is sorry she’s going through that and asks how Chanel is doing. Chanel says it’s been really quiet without Paulina at home and empty, until tonight.

Steve questions Tripp leaving Salem. Tripp clarifies that it’s not forever but it will be a couple months until he’s ready to get back to work. Steve suggests they take a little road trip together. Kayla asks where Tripp plans on going. Tripp reveals that he talked to Stephanie and Joey last night about maybe spending some time with them in Seattle this summer. Kayla calls that a great idea as she knows they would love to see him and spend time with him. Steve says it’s a good idea but it caught him by surprise. Tripp credits his near death experience for making him realize that family is what really matters so he wants to get to know Stephanie and Joey as his sister and brother. Tripp adds that he’s been thinking about going out there for awhile and laying in the hospital bed made him realize you never know how much time you have, so you have to do the things that really matter before it’s too late…

Chad encourages Abigail to save her energy and promises the ambulance is coming. EJ returns and announces they found the kids and Belle is taking them to Marlena’s while there is no sign of an intruder. The ambulance arrives so EJ rushes to go meet them. Abigail cries to Chad that she’s so cold. Chad urges her to open her eyes and pleads for her not to die on him.

Steve tells Tripp that they understand why he’s leaving but they’re really going to miss him. Tripp assures that he will be back. Kayla hopes so and says there will be a place for him with them and at the hospital, so he can come back any time he wants. Tripp thanks them for being amazing. Kayla calls him the best intern and an asset to the hospital. Tripp says Kayla made his life easier. Kayla hugs him and wishes him luck. Kayla then gets paged to the ER that a stabbing victim is coming in, so she exits the room. Steve hopes whoever it is, is okay.

Chad and EJ talk at the hospital. Chad worries that they never got Abigail’s pulse back in the ambulance. EJ encourages him as Kayla comes out from the elevator and sees blood on Chad, so she asks if he’s alright or hurt. Chad explains that it’s not his but Abigail’s and asks Kayla to please help her.

Steve asks Tripp if he’s sure he wants to do this. Tripp thinks that Steve thinks he’s running away. Steve denies that and thinks he needs to regroup which Tripp confirms is what he’s doing. Steve asks if he’s told Ava about this. Tripp says no as he wanted to tell Steve and Kayla first. Tripp jokes that he’ll tell his mom with the car running and his suitcase packed. Steve wishes him luck with that and then asks what about Allie. Tripp says that’s a good question.

Allie invites Chanel to go bowling if she wants to get out for a night. Chanel says they can do goofy golf or something. Allie suggests they and Johnny can go axe throwing which Chanel says is more like it. They talk about their desserts from the bakery and they end up both reaching for the same box, causing their hands to touch. They get interrupted by Allie getting a call from Tripp, who asks if she’s busy right now. Allie says that she and Chanel were just finishing up work for the day. Tripp says there’s something he wanted to talk to them both about so he asks them to come to the hospital now.

Johnny asks Susan what she sees. Susan says she doesn’t just see Allie, but declares she needs to call EJ. There’s a knock at the door and Marlena answers to see Belle. Susan worries that this is bad. Belle comes in as Marlena asks what’s going on. Belle informs her that Thomas and Charlotte are in the car with the nanny. Marlena asks what has happened. Belle reveals that someone broke in to the mansion and it’s Abigail.

Chad complains that nobody will tell him what’s going on and he wants to go find out how Abigail is doing. EJ stops him and reminds him that they need to work. Chad insists and then Kayla comes out and announces she’s sorry and they did everything they could, but they have lost Abigail. Chad refuses to believe it. EJ says he’s so sorry. Chad argues that they’re wrong and that he’ll get Dr. Rolf to fix it. Kayla encourages Chad that he did everything right and the staff did CPR for over an hour but Abigail lost too much blood. Kayla declares that Dr. Rolf cannot help her. Chad cries that he can’t give up on her and repeats that it can’t be as EJ hugs him.

Allie and Chanel go to Tripp’s hospital room. Chanel comments on him looking better. Tripp announces he’s actually getting discharged tomorrow. Steve decides to go get some coffee and exits. Allie asks Tripp if everything is okay. Tripp responds that everything is fine, he just wanted to tell her something and he thought she should hear it from him.

Belle cries to Marlena that she’s sorry to have to tell her. Marlena is glad she brought the children and asks if she’s alright. Belle says she’s fine. Johnny asks what happened. Belle doesn’t know and says the police are at the house now, trying to figure out who got in and how. Susan asks about EJ. Belle assures that he’s fine and went to the hospital with Chad and Abigail. Marlena asks about Abigail’s condition. Belle says there’s no word yet. Johnny decides he needs to be there so he exits. Marlena asks if Susan is alright. Susan responds that she just got a terrible chill..

Chad says he needs to be with his wife and see her. EJ tells him that he’ll be there. Chad says that Abigail was worried sick about the kids, so he asks EJ to go make sure they are ok. EJ tells him that Belle is with them, so he’s not going to leave him right now. Chad insists that he needs to be alone with his wife. EJ tells Chad to call if he needs anything. Chad asks Kayla where Abigail is. Kayla takes him to see her in the emergency room.

Chanel complains that Tripp just stopped hating her and is now going to leave town. Tripp points out that they are friends now. Chanel jokes that he may be the only friend she’s made in Salem that she hasn’t slept with. Chanel wishes Tripp the best and tells him not to stay away too long. Chanel then exits to let Allie and Tripp talk. Allie guesses that Tripp is leaving because of her.

Johnny arrives at the hospital and tells EJ that he heard from Belle that Abigail was stabbed. Johnny questions how since the mansion is supposed to be like a fortress and asks if they know how they got in. EJ responds that it’s Harold’s night off, Tony and Anna are away, while he and Belle didn’t see anything. EJ says the police are searching the place for evidence. Johnny asks how bad it is and if Abigail has to stay overnight. EJ then informs Johnny that Abigail has died. Johnny cries that it can’t be as EJ hugs him. Johnny asks where Chad is. EJ informs him that Chad is in with Abigail. EJ adds that he wanted to stay but Chad wanted him to go check on the kids. EJ asks how they are going to tell the kids about this. Johnny asks what he can do. EJ questions what any of them can do but help Chad and the kids get through this. EJ decides he better go and hugs Johnny. Johnny decides to stay and see if Chad needs anything. They say I love you as EJ then exits the hospital. Chanel comes off of the elevator and sees Johnny crying, so she asks what he’s doing here.

Marlena tells Belle that the nanny is getting the children settled in and asks where Susan is. Belle says she’s making tea. Belle asks why no one is calling. Belle cries that it was so awful as Abigail was so pale and there was blood everywhere. Belle adds that the kids don’t know and she didn’t know what to say to them. Belle worries the longer they don’t hear anything, the more scared she is for Abigail. Marlena hugs Belle as she cries.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Devon: Alright, so, we’ve taken care of all of the last-minute prs-credential requests, which I think is a great sign that the additional outlets want to send their reporters.

Lily: And what about the changes to the video presentation? Did that get made?

Nate: Not yet. The production team’s working on them now. We should be able to s the revised versions in a couple of hours.

Devon: Good. Hey, billy.

Billy: Hey. Sorry I’m late.

Nate: No problem. I was just giving lily and devon an update on where everything stands for the launch. Looks like legal just gave the all-clear on the final contracts, and all of the footage and music’s been cleared for the promo spots.

Devon: Nice. They cut that pretty close, didn’t they?

Billy: Lily, uh, can I speak to you for a moment, please?

Lily: Uh, can we chat later? There’s a lot to get done before tonight.

Billy: No, I understand that. It’ll just take a second.

Lily: Okay, I’m gonna really need you to focus on the launch instead of on your ex. Can yodo that for me?

Amanda: Now, I know that we told nate that we were good to go, but I wanted to check out contracts one more time, and it looks like we have covered all of our bases.

Imani: Damn, we’re good.

Amanda: Mm-hmm. So now we can move on to the launch party and who you are bringing as your date. You know, I was thinking about that music producer who works with devon, the one that wanted to give you the grand tour. But there’s also the guy from marketing, the one who brought you the cup of coffee. I think that he’s a top contender, hmm?

Imani: Could you be more obvious?

Amanda: What? I just — I want to make sure that you have a good time at the big event.

Imani: No, you want me to focus on anyone other than nate. What are you so afraid of? That I’m gonna cast a spell on elena’s boyfriend and magically woo him into my web? After all, it’s not like she has any reason to feel threatened.

Nikki: I am just sick about this. I keep wondering if the was something we could have done differently. I mean, could we have prevented this?

Victor: Baby —

Nikki: Maybe there was something more that we could have said or done to get through toer to make her realize that she deserves a much better man than ashland.

Victor: Look, you can’t keep on beating yourself up over this.

Nikki: I can’t help it. I just don’t understand why she would choose a relatnship based on completely on lies over her family.

Victor: I don’t understand it any more thanou do.

Nikki: I mean, admittedly, she hasn’t always made the best choices in partners. I mean, there was biy with the gambling and all of that. But she did walk away from him. Why can she not see that this thing with ashland is even worse?

Victor: [ Inhales deeply ] As perplexing to me as it is to you.

Nikki: I just feel like we’re losing our daughter and there’s nothing we can do about it.

Victor: [ Breathes deeply ]

Nikki: Hello.

Victoria: Do you know anything about this?

Nikki: Your father commissioned it and put a sh on it.

Victoria: Really?

Nikki: Really. We understand why you destroyed the one at ashland had made for you, but we felt that it needed to be replaced. And, darling, he may have broken your heart, but he certainly hasn destroyed your spirit or your strength of leadership. And that is exactly what that portrait represents.

[ Door opens ]

Nick: I was hoping to catch you before you left town.

Victoria: Because you thought you could talk me out of it? It’s not gonna happen.

Nick: No, that’s not why I’m here. I promise.

Elena: Ladies. I was just thinking about you two.

Imani: You were?

Elena: Yeah. I was wondering how your mom’s doing.

Amanda: Oh, that is so nice of you to ask. Our mom has actually been following doctor’s orders, and her ib is under control, so i think it’s good news.

>>Lena: It is. I’m glad to hear she’s doing okay.

Amanda: You look ke you hada long night saving lives.

Elena: Very long. It’s been a crazy week at the hospital.

Imani: Mm. I really admire you so much. All the time you put in, you probably never have time for fun.

Elena: Mm, I manage to find the time here and there. But what can I say? I love wt I ha. And long hours are just a part of it.Imani: But I’m sure it was probably easier when you and nate were going through it together.

Elena: Nate is really happy where he’s at, and I’m hpy for him. And that’s what’s important.

Amanda: Spoken like a true partner.

Imani: Speaking of nate’s new career, this is gonna be a big night for him. He’s been working really hard on thisaunch party. But I’m sure he’ll understand if you’re too wiped out to make it. I mean, you — you do look exhausted.

Elena: [ Chuckles ] Well, thanks. Believe me, I know how important this is for nate. And I wouldn’t want to miss it. All I need is a quick nap, and I will be just fine.

Imani: That’s really sweet that you are willing to sacrifice for him.

Elena: Oh, going to a party isn’t really a sacrifice. I’m actually looking forward to having a reason to wear a new dress. And constantly meeting new people is one of the things i love most about being at the hospital. So small talk with executives is not a problem for me.

>>Mani ithat’s so great. Well, I guess you’ll be the life of the party. I look forward to seeing you in action.

Elena: See you both tonight. Looking forward to it.

Imani: What?

Billy: I don’t like the way things ended last night.

Lily: This is not the time, billy.

Billy: Lily…

Nate: We are beininung te with calls from members of the financial press. They all want to get the inside track, a sneak peeof wk t we’re planning to unveil tonight.

Devon: That’s great. Keep them guessing.

Nate: You mean keep them guessing for now, but at the event tonight, we’re gonna get into more specifics, right? Because that was the middle-of-the-road approach we agreed upon?

Devon: Yeah, yeah. No, for sure. We’re gonna — we’re gonna tease what we have up and coming, but the focus of the night is gonna be on our overall vision of thfutue . We’re gonna drive home the message of that logo — two companies, two families uniting to carry on amazing legacies.

Nate: I respect those legacies, and I am honored to be a part of this.But I don’t think we should give the impression that this is just a symbolic change.

Devon: Yeah, no, that’s — that’s — that’s not gonna happen.

Nate: I’m not so sure. Listen, I think we need to go bold, capitalize on all of the attention we’ll be getting tonight. We need to give these reporters something juicy they can chew on and run with. We could talk about our upcoming dcast, building anticipation for their premieres. What do you think, lily?

Lily: I actually am gonna agree with devon on this one. I don’t think that we should go into details and that we should focus on the big picture.

[ Cellphone ringing

Devon: Hello? Yeah, hang on one second. Hey, we have an issue. Do you have the editing rundown?

Lily: Oh, yeah.

Nate: You agree with me, right, billy? The business community needs to hear more specifics about what we’re poised to accomplish.

Billy: We’ve had this conversation. I think the ceos have made their wishes clear. Anything else is above my pay grade.

Devon: Hey, I don’t know what to tell you because we need to have the finished product in hours.

Lily: I don’t understand wh the hold-up is.

Billy: I talked to the producer yesterday. They insted that this revision was gonna be done by this afternoon.

Devon: Do you guys need to put more editors on it? ‘Cause if that’s the case, just do it.

Lily: Yeah, whatever it takes to get it done, just do it.Nate: There’s got to be a way we can get them all the resources they need. Let’s figure out a solution.

Nick: I’m not here to interfere. I’m not gonna make that mistake again. I also don’t have any hidden agendas or secret motives. I kn I’m not gonna be able to talk you out of anything because you’ve made it very clear that no one can do that. I just have to accept that, you know, this is what you want. It’s what you need.

Victoria: Thanks.

Nick: I just cannot stand t idea of you leaving town, though, with all this distance between us… with all this anger. Vick, I’m really afraid I’m never gonna see my sister again. We do it every night

Cstalphyllis sends her apologies for not being here. Shwente o visit her son, but is offering spa comps for your team.

Lily: Yeah. Thank you. Phyllis actually already contacted me. Everything’s okay. Abby itaking over, so it’s all under control.

Crystal: She’s in the ballomowaing for you.

Lily: Oka thank you.

Don: So, abby is doing aa favor for yllis?

Billy: Go figure.

Lily: Well, no, it’s — it’s for us. It’s for the launch. I mean, thiss bigger than a feud with phyllis, you know? She cares abt us. Soke the event a success. Don’t worry.

Devon: No, well, it’s very cool that she stepped up like that. It makes me feel good that she’s involved.

Nate: There is so much positivenerg ebuilding around this launch. I mean, the buzz I’m hearing from the P.R. Team, the intense interest from the business community. It’s all starting to sink in, just how big of a deal this is.

Lily: I know. I’m excited.

Devon: Yeah. Your idea’s about to become a reality.

Billy: Congratulations all around.

Devon: We should go and do a sound check, make sure that’s taken care of,here’s no issues. See you.

Billy: Lily. Can we talk?

Lily: Billy, can we please talk later?

Billy: No, beuse cau said some pretty harsh things to me last night, and you’ve been avoiding the conversation ever since.

Lily: I’m not avoiding it. I have a lot going on right now. I don’t have time to talk about victoria.

Billy: Oh, I understand that. You made that clear last night. But I think it’s only fair that I’m able to explain myself.

Lily: Okay, billy, there’s a very simple solution for this. Just l vicetria and ashland go. Respect victoria’s autonomy as a woman and a mother.

Billy: I do.

Lily: No, stop thinking that she’s gonna put your kids’ lives in danger. There’s no need to change the custody agreement. That’s just your excuse to interfere.

Billy: No, that is not what this is about.

Lily: And, honestly, stop trying to think that you can fix victoria’s life. This is why she wants to leave town and cut ties with her family — because everyone is trying to micromanage her choices, which is exactly whatyou’re trying to do.

Victor: You’ve got to stop taking on all of this yourself. Nothing you could have said would have stopped her from cutting ties with her family.

Nikki: I guess I’m just trying to make sense of something that’s totally illogical.

Victor: [ Sighs heavily ] When I spoke with that obnoxious ashland locke last night, he told me there was nothing we could do to stop them. I just wish I had… wiped off that smug smile. But that only would have played into his hands.

Nikki: Might have been worth it.

Victor: Oh, he would have played the victim card. Would have made her feel more sympathetic to him.

Nikki: So, what did he have to say for himself?

Victor: That it was her idea to leave town and that it was our fault for pushing her away.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] You don’t believe that, do you?

Victor: I don’t understand any of this. I mean, how mu encouragement have we given her? But she has always felt that and she has let us know in the past that she didn’t feel we respected her enough. And I think anything we do now will convince her even more.

Nikki: So, then what do we do?

Victor: [ Breathes deeply ]

Nick: You’ve always been such an important part of my life. You know, you’ve understood me the way no one else can. I mean, how could they? They didn’t grow up the way we did. They don’t know at iwhs like to be children of the greatvictorewman, with all the complications and obligations that go along with that.

Victoria: He gave us everything that he didn’t have as a child. But he put a lot of pressure on us.

Nick: Always fighting for his approval competing to the chosen one. The business world was our arena, with the ultimate prize being, you know, newman enterprises. We learned from the best.

Victoria: And we did it well, sometimes together., We did, and newman for a time.

Nick: We were the best team. Yeah, I mean, there were times, obviously, we had some issues with each other. You know, we fought like hell, but what siblings don’t? But we always kn we could turn to each other. And I hope you know that hasn’t changed for me. I’ll always be here for you.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Is this the part where you expect me to say that things I ll do the same. From the very first touch.

Billy: Hey, will you stop, please? Just let me explain, please, because this is not about me being self-important. It’s not about me trying to be a hero. I’m not simply trying to figure out any way I possibly can to stay involved in victoria’s life.

Lily: Are you sure about that?

Billy: Yes. I have legitimate concerns, mostly because I hurt victoria in the past and I continued to do that after she took me back, until she finally had enough and got rid of me.

Lily: No, you’re making this abt you, and victoria would say that it’s not.

Billy: Well, maybe that’s ue, trt I can’t stop worrying about her, especially after erything I put her through. And you’ve got to be honest. It could have massive effects on my kids. You know that.

Lily: Billy, don’t go there, okay? This is not about them. This is about you. Just because you have children with her does not make it okay for you to try to run her fe.Li

Billy: Look, I don’t believe that I am e sath person now as I was when I was with her, but because of that experience, i can see how this whole thing is going to unravel, and I am simply trying to stop her from getting her heart crushed d her whole life derailed because once again she puts too much trust in someone.

Lily: Okay, if she’s making a mistake, it’s her mistake make. Look, I know that it’s hard for you to sit back and just watch this, but it’s not on you to fix it. And I hate that on a day when we should be focusing on the event, we’re talking about victoria.

Billy: Well, the way you say that, it almost makes it sound like you think I might have feelings for her still.

Lily: No, I don’t think that you have feelings for her. I just think that you are way too involved in her life. It goes beyond co-parenting.

Billy: Yeah. It’s a little bit difficult. I mean, we have a big history, you know? I can’t just cut ties like that.

Lily: Oh, you know, I have exes, too, okay? But they don’t cause issues in our relationship.

Bil>>: Yeah, but they don’t live in genoa city.

Lily: Well, you know what? Victoria might leave genoa city. So, is that why you have a problem with this?

Billy: No. This is about her not being able to let go of that monster of a person, okay? That’s what all of this is about.

Lily: Okay. I don’t know how to make this any clearer to you. I am done talking about this. You have to let this go.

Billy: Look, ly, I don’t want any of this to come between us, okay? I don’t want to focus on anyone else but you. And maybe you’re right. Maybe this has just as much to do with me and my own past as it does victoria. And if that is, then I got some work to do. I’m gonna have to come to peace with that and let victoria live helife.

Lily: Okay, well, I know that was hard for you, and i appreciate you hearing me.

Billy: I love you. And I trust you. And I know that you love me, and I know that’s where all of this is coming from. And we both know that I’m a fool. But I would be the world’s biggest fool if I didn’t listen to you.

Imani: But I’m sure he’ll understand if you’re too wiped out to make it. I mean, you — you do look exhausted.

Elena: Mnh. Good god. I do look exhausted.

[ Chuckles ] Ugh. But of course you do. That’s because you are exhausted. You actually do your work instead of sitting around plotting and scheming.

[ Sighs, chucks ] Why am I letting her get to me?Phone ringing ] Hello? You’ve got to be kidding me. Ugh. Oh, I can’t believe this.

Amanda: Hey, imani, was that dig at elena absolutely necessary?She just got off her shift.

Imani: [ Chuckles ] Well, you were the one who sd shailooked like shead a hong nighT. And she did. I know if I were elena, the last thing I’d feel like doing is putting on a pair of heels and plastering on a phony smile for my boyfriend, no matter how fine he is.

[ Laughs ] Look at you, getting all word up and worried about me. Don’t trip. This is gonna be a great night.

Amanda: [ Shs ]Ig

Imani: Ooh! Well, what do you know? Right on time. It’s my dateor tonight, giancarlo om marketing.

Amanda: Oh, wow. Well, I thought I was right about him. Why didn’t you tell me?

Imani: I was just waiting for him to confirm. So you can relax. Elena has nothing to worry about.

Amanda: [ Sighs ]

Crystal: Devon and nate are in the ballroom.

Lily: Thank you, crystal.

Nikki: The idea that she will find happiness with the man who deceived her is ridiculous.

Victor: Just so damn painful to watch her go through all this, knowing full well this will cause nothing but heartache.

Nikki: [ Voice breaking ] Victor, we c’t lan her walk out of our lives.

Victor: But, sweetheart, what are we supposed to do? Shhas to get out of this trance by herself, you know, let this play out.

Nikki: I don’t know if I can do that.

Victor: [ Sighs ] We’re gonna have to let her go.

Nikki: Brea[ Ing heavily ] Okay everyone,

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Nate: I’m telling you, imani, tonight’s gonna be big. The displays in the ballroom look even better than i expected.

Imani: Yeah, you did an amazing job, nate. You should be so proud.

Nate: I am. It’s exactly what lily and devon wanted.

Imani: Mm.

Nate: But I can’t help feeling like tonight could be a real misseopportunity. Or, to be more precise, we may not be capitalizing on the opportunity we have in front of us.

Imani: What do you mean?

Nate: We have some really innovative, exciting initiatives in the works. But devon wants to focus on the big picture and the family legacy and not get into very many specifics.

Imani: Okay. So, if it were up to you, how would you handle it?

Nate: This is the time to show the world exactly what the merged companies are actually going to do. We need to let the business community see how we’re gonna innovate and druptis

Imani: Mm. I like it a lot. I assume you ran this past devon and li?

Nate: Well, devon wants to take the “let ’em ke gueeping” approach, and lily wouldn’t even consider the alternative. I even tried to get billy to back me up, but he’s taking the “go along to get along” approach.

Imani: Mm. Not your style at all. And not how big things get accomplished.

[ Tablet cses ]

Victoria: The truth is I’m just really red of the constant attacks and judgment of evything that I do.

[ Sighs ] I just wish that you would understand why I’m doing this and why I’m making this move.

Nick: Look, I can’t lie to you. I’m worried. If you leave town, you’re turning your back on this family who loves you very, very much, vick. And I’m afraid ashland’s gonna wind up hurting you again.

Victoria: You don’t know that. You’re just jumping to the worst conclusions.

Nick: I really hope that doesn’t happen. I hope this works out exactly the way you want it to. But you know I’m gonna worry because of who aland is and everything he’s done and all the games he’s played.

[ Sighs ] But when it comes to our personal lives, we have always shown up for each other. We’ve helped each other thugh the most terrible, awful things you could ever imagine.

Victoria: That’s all I’m asking you to do now.

Nick: Well, our relationship is more than just that because wee supported each other’s choice whether they were good or bad. And I can’t say the same for the rest of the family. You remember how badly mom didn’t want me to marry sharon?

Victoria: [ Chuckles ] Vividly.

Nick: But you knew how happy she made me. That’s all that mattered. Itas wy choice, even though i knew you had a lot of issues with her. The same way it was with billy. Dad ted you two being together, but I knew it was your choice to make. It’s your life.

Victoria: Yes. And this is my life now. And I choose ashland. Are you gonna support me now?

Nick: [ Sighs ] Of course I will. But I’m never gonna understa why you’re doing this. And I will always protect you and support you and defend you. Because you’re my sister and i love yound that’s never gonna change.

Nikki: I can’t believe we’re just gonna sit here and watch victoria walk away with ashland locke.

Victor: Sweetheart, what else can we do?

Nikki: [ Sighs ] Even if she does come to rlize that she made a terrible mistake, I worry that her pride will keep her from admitting it. I mean, it could be that he ends up not just breaking her heart, but breaking her spirit, as well.

Victor: Have you forgotten how tough our daughter is? She will get through this.

Nikki: And what if she can never find it in her heart to forgive us?

Victor: [ Sighs ] In the end, she will realize — she has to realize that we have only always wanted what’s best for her. Think all the support I’ve given her — and you. She’ll realize that she’ll be welcome with open arms by us. She mustnow that, deep in her heart.

Nikki: That day can’t come soon enough.

Victor: But, you know… I think I have an idea of what will speed up her decision to come back home.

Nikki: Oh, there’s the victor newman I know and love. Please tell me what you’re thinking.

Victor: [ Chuckles ] No matter who you are,

Lily: Abby has done such a great job. I am so happy this event is in her hands.

Billy: Yeah, and because she’s taking care of the party, that means you two can focus on introducing chancellor-winters to the world and enjoying the night. Look, this is it, you two. This is — this is your moment.

Lily: Hey, it’s our moment.

Devon: No, guys, this night belongs to all of us.

Nate: This night also belongs to our talented and tenacious legal team. You two should be proud of all you’ve done to get us to the finish line.

Amanda: Thank you, nate. It was challenging, but also a joy.

Imani: Okay, let’s save all the compliments and the pats on the backs for later. We havthe whole night ahead of us to toast to all of our amazing talents.

Devon: Yes, we do. Speaking of, it’s getting pretty late. We should get home and get ready for the event.

Amanda: Yes, we do, and you need to practice your speech.

Devon: Oh, I know it already. I’m good. What about you?

Nate: You know it.

Devon: Yeah?

Nate: Ah.

[ Cellphone ringing ] Here we go again. That’s the P.R. Team. Excuse me.

Billy: Okay, I know you want to head back to the office, so, uh, I’ll meet you there.

Ly: Where are you going?

Billy: I won’t be long.

Victoria: Thank you, nicholas. Thank you so much for loving me and for caring about me. It means so much to me. I’m just so glad that you don’t want this anger and this distance to continue between us.

Nick: Well, it wouldn’t be the same without you in my life.

Victoria: I wish that you could share this excitement with me. I mean, I’m — I’m starting a new chapter on my own, away from the family.

[ Sighs ] I just wish that everybody else could understand that I need a little air, a little room to breathe so I canhart my own path.

Nick: Yeah. Sounds exciting.

Victoria: I mean, in a way, it’s like I’m beginning a new life. And I want to be able to share all of the news that I have with you.

Nick: Well, I hope you know you can, uh — you can call me, text me.

Victoria: [ Chuckles ]

Nick: Hell, send a carrier pigeon. Whatever you want, whenever you want.

Victor: Victoria can take a break from our family because she knows damn well that we will welcome her back with open arms. But that does not apply to the company.

Nikki: I’m listening.

Victor: A company she has poured her heart and soul into. It was always her dream to become ceo of newman enterprises.

Nikki: A dream she seems content to walk away from.

Victor: But I know our daughter.

Nikki: So, tell me. What are you tnkinhi

Victor: I’m gonna make a very splashy announcement as to who will run the company as ceo, and that new ceo… will be her brother adam.

Nikki: Go on.

Victor: But you will stay on as co-ceo and rein him in whenever you deem that necessary.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] No, no. I should step down from co-ceo and go back to my old position as coo. That way, I can keep an eye on things without diluting the impact of your decision.

Victor: You’re thinking like a businesswoman, baby. I like that. Once our daughter finds out th her brother adam is nning the business… it’ll be too much for her to bear. To help prevent eeding gums,

Nate: Hey, babe. We should start getting ready.

Elena: I’ve actually got some bad news. You’re gonna be flying solo tonight.

Nate: What?

Elena: I am so sorry, but two doctors called in sick. I have to go to the hospital tonight.

Nate: And there’s no one else who can cover?

Elena: Believe me, I tried, but there’s not really anything I can do. M soi’ummed I’m gonna miss yo biguright.

Nate: No, no. It’s — don’t worry. It’s not your fault. I — it’s just part of being a doctor.

Elena: Yeah, but I’m still disappointed. I an [Sighs] I wanted to be there to support you and devon and lily and…everyone else and show them how proud I am of you.

Nate: I already know that. So does devon and lily. Why do you care what anyone else thinks?

Elena: I don’T. Okay, I ran into amanda and imani at the coffeehouse earlier and I made this whole big thing about how excited i was to go to the party tonight and now I’m not even gonna be there.

Nate: Oh. Okay. So you’re disappointed you won’t be spending timeith imani. Hmm. That’s a first.

Elena: Yeah, well, she, on the other hand, will be thrilled to know that you’re going to the party alone.

Nate: Come on. She’s as invested in making the launch of chancellor-winters a suess as much as I am. She’ll be focused on work.

Elena: Yeah, if you say so.

Nate: And without you there, all I’ll be thinking about is busine.

Elena: Now, that I do believe.

Nate: I’ll miss you like crazy tonight. But maybe when you get home after your shift, we can have our own little private celebration.

Elena: Mm.

Amanda: There. Perfect.

Devon: Yeah?

Amanda: Mhmm. Now you are ready for your big night.

Devon: Oh, thank you very much.

Amanda: I’m glad th we, um, have some time to talk before all the festivities.

Devon: I know. Me too.

Amanda: I want you to know that I’m really proud of you. You know, everything that you’ve accomplished, first with hamilton-winters and now expanding your vision of this family business. You talk about neil a lot. And I know that he is smiling down, watching you and lily build this amazing company together.

Devon: Thank you for saying that. You kn you’re a very big part of it, too.

Amanda: Mm.

Devon: Well, you are. Look how far you and I have come since we met.

Amanda: Yeah, we have come a long way.

[ Both laugh ] Who would have thought?

Devon: Now we’re living together. Now we’re working together. And we are about to embark on this new adventure together.

Amanda: I can’t wait.

Devon: Me neither. You know what?

Amanda: What?

Devon: I think tonight is gonna change everything.

Lily: Well, no, not nearly enough.

Billy: Ah.

Lily: No, but seriously, I know that you say that I could

Billy: [ Chuces ]

Lily: …But it would be lot harder and a hell of a lot more boring.

Billy: Oh, yeah. We don’t do boring.

Lily: No.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

are you sure we have enough marshmallows and chocolate for the s’mores? Oh, this is definitely enough for the entire month. It’s only a weekend trip. I love seeing everyone pitching in together. Oh, we’re going to aiden’s port charles pioneers rally. Oh! Well, what a wonderful idea. Elizabeth is going to love hearing that you’re all going on a camping trip together as blended families. I’m late for work. I, uh — I think maybe I should go talk to cam. No, actually, I’ve got this. When you are visualizing vectors, do you do it in “a,” one dimension, “b,” two dimensions, or “c,” three dimensions? Okay. Um, vectors. Vectors. Visualizing vectors. Is it…”a”? No! It’s “B.” Ugh! “B,” two dimensions, babe. Oh. Who am I kidding? I am never gonna pass the mcats and get into med school, and I’m never gonna fulfill my dream of becoming a doctor! I remember I said the same thing when I was going through this.

[ Sighs ] Yes. But you were still young when you became a doctor. And you had more time and energy. Well, I don’t know what to tell you there. I mean, I haven’t invented a time machine just yet.

[ Laughs ] True. [ Sighs ] Well, okay, look. At the very least, do you have any study tips? Someone did help me once. They said, “don’t think about it as a test. Think about the questions as if you’re dealing with an actual patient — someone that came to you for answers.” And that did the trick? Yeah, it did. It reminded me of why I wanted to become a doctor in the first place. And it wasn’t to do good on some tests, it was to help people. Well, then it looks like we came to the right place. Cameron, a-aren’t you gonna go with everybody else on the camping trip? I got my hands full with my job here, my second job at the metro court pool. Not to mention damage control with joss.

[ Sighs ] Look, I-I don’t want to pry. But, cameron, it’s summer after your freshman year in college. Don’t you think you deserve to have a little fun? I don’t know, roughing it out at pautuck state park is just not my idea of a good time. Not a fan of sleeping in a tent, huh? Or is it maybe the fact that your mom won’t be there? “Confidential message from the office of the dean of students.” Okay. Look, we don’t know for sure if this is bad news.

[ Sighs ] Yeah. But one way or the other, once I open this e-mail… my life won’t be the same. You are way off base, ava. I’m back with esme. Are you trying to deny your feelings for trina? I don’t owe you any explanations. You know how much trina means to me. So I want the truth. What kind of game are you playing? You can’t be serious. Ava can never find out that I — that we… made love? Keep your voice down. I’m only saying if the guilt of it is too much for you to bear and you need to unburden yourself to ava, you won’t be alone. I’ll stand right by your side. Felicia. I take it maxie and bailey lou are still upstairs with the pediatrician? Yes, they are, and when they’re finished, I was hoping you would join us for a family dinner. Sounds good to me. I can’t get enough of that little angel. Yes. Everything is new through a little one’s eyes.


all good. I’m sorry. I know that you miss your mom. Hey, we all do.

[ Sighs ] But I know you also feel the pressure to earn money and be the man of the family. But don’t you admire what finn is doing, trying to keep things as normal as possible for jake and aiden, for violet, too, for that matter? We can’t pitch a tent in the woods and pretend everything is normal when mom is suffering.

[ Sighs ] Your mother chose to get help, and she’s working on getting better. Okay, but we don’t know how long that’s gonna take. I-I-I don’t know what to say anymore when jake and aiden ask why they can’t see their mom. Things will not get better until mom comes home. We came here today to get my father’s bandage changed and maybe have another scan. I heard about your mugging, marshall. I’m so sorry. Oh, my son, he came to the rescue.

[ Laughs ] He, uh, made sure everything went alright. Well, I’m not surprised that curtis came through for you, but I’m sorry he didn’t get there before you got injured. Well, I may look the worse for wear, but you should see the clarinet.

[ Laughter ] Look, let me show you to your room and I’ll let your doctor know you’re here. Thank you, nurse johnson. No, thank you, doctor, for the tutorial.

[ Laughs ] Well, when I left you at the house, you and your father certainly had a lot to unpack. Yeah, a whole suitcase full. If you don’t feel comfortable talking to me about any of it, I mean, we can talk about it another time.

[ Exhales sharply ] Well, I don’t want to talk about it. But I have to. Because what I learned, it might affect you, too. We can do this. Let’s do it.

[ Sighs ] Oh, no, trina. Yes, I care about trina. But my loyalty is to esme. Why is that so difficult for you to understand? Why would you care about trina if you think that she’s the one who hurt your friends? While claiming that esme is behind that revenge porn? Doesn’t that make you angry? I don’t have to explain myself to you. I’m in control of your trust fund, spencer. It was my decision to give you an allowance, but what I give, I can take away. So out with it. What are you up to? Esme, we have both been given second chances — you with spencer, me with ava. The last thing we want to do is to throw those chances away, right? If you can forget what happened between us, so can I.

[ Sighs ] Ava took the first step towards reconciliation, and I need to find a way to reciprocate. Are we talking diamonds or rubies? None of the above. I know ryan can’t hurt me because of his condition, but still. Wait here. Wait here. Officer cabrera, what’s he doing here? Uh, the desk sergeant gave me this assignment to provide backup for the spring ridge guards during transport. The patient is undergoing a series of tests here at G.H. Is there a problem? Unfortunately, no. Everything seems to be in order. I know you can’t talk or even move a muscle, but you can hear me, so listen up. I know it’s legally the correct thing to do to offer you medical treatment, but if it were up to me, I would have taken you down a long time ago. All your victims, all the people you killed — you never gave them a chance to survive. So even though I can imagine you hate your life as a vegetable trapped in a body that can’t do anything, it’s still way better than you deserve.

[ Screams ] You never were very bright.

[ Screams ]


[ Spits ]

[ Gasping ] Felicia, so nice to see you again.

[ Screams ] Officer cabrera, escort the prisoner to the exam room and make sure the room is secure before you hand it off to the guards. Yes, sir. Let’s go. Hey. No, no. I’m okay. I’m okay. Evil like that — pure evil — it can’t win out. I wish it were that easy. You don’t happen to have a silver bullet, do you? No, but I have something better. A baby. Hamilton, how’d it go at shadybrook today? Violet told you? Nothing gets past her. No.

[ Chuckles ] Well, you know, elizabeth, she’s, uh — she’s getting the help that she needs. Why do I sense there’s more to the story? She made it pretty clear that my presence there was making it worse for her. She kind of asked me to leave. Hey, there we go. Ready for this? When I saw your mother in the clinic, she had only one concern — you three boys, not herself. But isn’t that the problem? Shouldn’t her entire focus be on herself and getting better?

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, well, uh, when you get older and you have kids, you’ll see that you never stop worrying about them or putting their needs first. But you’re right. She should be focusing on herself right now, but she won’t be able to do that if she knows that you’re putting your life on hold. That will add to her anxiety. So me going on this stupid camping trip might actually make her feel better? Is it really stupid to spend some time with your younger brothers right now? You know? Go for a walk in the woods, maybe run into a family of deer — just anything to distract their minds from what’s going on with their mother? I guess. You guess. Well, you like finn, right? Yeah, sure, I do. Okay. Well, I know everybody says that hamilton finn is a — is a genius who can cure incurable diseases, and they’re right, but he’s also a human being, and he could use your help right now. I know your mother was counting on you to help out right now. If ever there was a time for a family to come together, it’s now. So how does marshall’s story affect me? Well, it affects you because it affects me. Now, I don’t think I’m betraying any confidence by telling you this. Marshall is well aware that there have been too many secrets, so he’s okay with me telling you everything. Well, I’m — I’m — I’m here to listen, so take all the time you need.

[ Sighs ] After you left us at the house, marshall opened up. I mean, it was like — it was like someone had finally opened the window and let the sunshine in after a lifetime lost in the dark. I mean, he just let it all out. All those years he was away from us, thinking that he was protecting us… and in reality, all the while, he was suffering. And if tj hadn’t have found those pills — the pills that I found you holding? Yeah. After marshall was mugged, the doctors in new york asked if he was on any medication. Now, I know he takes heart medication, but I don’t know what kind or what dose. Tj and I, we had the key card to marshall’s hotel room, so t went up to his room to look for the pills. Now, we were just trying to help the doctors with any information we could. What? A-are you saying that marshall’s heart condition is worse than he initially let on? No. I’m saying that there was no medication for any heart issues. Tj found antipsychotic medication. All these years, marshall has been taking medication… …for schizophrenia. “This is to inform you that you have been found in violation of regulations enumerated under title ix.”

[ Sighs ] “You will be contacted by the dean’s office to schedule a meeting, in which time sanctions against you will be stipulated and possible expulsion will be addressed.” Okay. Well, we still get to meet the dean, so there’s a chance that they’ll impose sanctions while allowing you to stay enrolled at pcu. Thanks for trying to stay positive, but…

[ Sighs ] I don’t need a pep talk. Actually, I-in a way, this decision did me a favor. A favor. How? It’s like climbing a high diving board. It’s so much scarier to climb back down rather than just to take a deep breath and jump. Okay, but what are you jumping into? The way I see it, if anyone’s going to clear my name and prove that I’m not guilty, it’s gonna be me. Okay, well, just know that you’ve got your family and you’ve got me, and, hopefully, cam.

[ Rory clears throat ] Hopefully there’s room for one more supporter. We’re in this together now, so tell me, what do you have in mind for ava? I mean, ava made a huge gesture by returning home to me. She even went so far as to accept you, to reinstate an allowance from spencer’s trust. Those are huge concessions. I have to come up with a fitting response. Well, I can’t wait to hear how the story ends. Here. This is for good luck. Even though I know you don’t need it. Ava, I am not up to anything. For once in your young, irresponsible life, you gotta be honest. Whose side are you on — trina’s or esme’s?

[ Door opens ] What’d I miss?


Oneand put it over and under. Look at that. Pull it tight. Whoa! Square knot. Okay? Saw what I did? Yeah, I think so. All right. Now it’s your turn. And remember, it’s okay if you don’t get it right the first time. Okay. Thanks.

[ Chuckles ] Your advice never changes, does it?

[ Sighs ] What do you mean? The whole, uh, “it’s okay if you don’t get it right on the first time” thing.

[ Chuckles ] You always let chase and i figure things out on our own. Well, if memory serves, you never, uh — well, rarely took my advice. Very true. But I’m starting to. You know, instead of hovering over elizabeth, I’m taking the boys and violet on this camping trip. That’s very healthy, very mature. Mm. But if I know my son, and I think I do, you’re already planning some other way to help elizabeth, whether she wants it or not. That’s not fair — you bringing up mom’s expectations of me. Not when I’ve been disappointing her for a long time.

[ Sighs ] Cameron. Look, cameron, please don’t do this to yourself. You know, you made a mistake just like everybody else. Your mother is really, really proud of you. And beating yourself up right now is not productive, okay? You’re just gonna get bogged down with all of that, and then you can’t be present to help anyone else. Right? What sense does that make? Really, the best thing that you can do right now for your mother is to go on that camping trip, spend some time with your younger brothers. So what do you say? You don’t have to stick around until the doctor shows up. Did it ever occur to you that I might have another reason for sticking around?

[ Sighs ] The last time I saw you, it was, “hello. Goodbye. Have a nice life.” Look, I thought it was for the best. Best for who? You encouraged me to go for my dream of becoming a doctor. And then when I take you up on it, you’re outta here. Not so much as a postcard from the road. Are you telling me you’re going for it? What?! Epiphany, are you grabbing that brass ring? With both hands.

[ Laughter ] You may have run away from your family, but I’m not running away from my future. I may have run away, but if you’re not gonna hide from your future, I can’t run away from my past. That’s right. I’m back to face it, and I’m back to stay. When you spoke to marshall, did he happen to mention when he was first diagnosed with this? It’s been at least 40 years ago. You know, I’ve been saying this all along. There is more to marshall’s story, and I was right. And this explains everything. Marshall walked away from his family because he was protecting us. This was never about some unknown enemy. He was protecting us from himself. So as long as tommy and i believed that he was dead, that was marshall sparing us from the pain, the grief, from the stigma of that disease. Yeah, well, 40 years ago, a-a lot less was known about that condition. Can you imagine the courage it took to walk away from your family to face that illness alone? Or the courage, even more so, to come back and tell the whole truth? It is very, very brave. Um… did you happen to mention if — if he’s had any recent episodes? No, the medication keeps it under control. You know what? I believe that marshall’s biggest fear isn’t what he’s about to do, but what he’s already done by passing on his dna. Now, I’ve read that this disease can be passed along genetically. Is that true? Do you always listen in on conversations and wait for the right time to make an entrance? People say a cop is never around when you need one. Well, now you can tell them they’re wrong. Okay. Well, sadly, I couldn’t get ahold of cam, but I’m glad you’re here. You know, pcu may have made a decision about the title ix findings, but there’s still time before a judge has to rule trina’s case. I’m on the clock right now, but once I’m off duty, we’ll come up with a strategy to exonerate trina. Okay, guys, look, I am touched by your support, but if there are any clues to find, I need to be the one to find them. I can’t involve a member of the pcpd, and I can’t involve you and cam. I need to do this one on my own. Cameron is expecting me at kelly’S. I admire your dedication, son. Even though you’re able to draw an allowance from your trust fund, you still feel an obligation to your friend. That’s our spencer — loyal to a fault. Your timing is not great. I was so close to finding out what spencer is up to with esme. What makes you think he’s up to something? Well, he’s a cassadine, isn’t he? And we’re all gonna be under the same roof. I’m gonna do whatever I have to do to try to get along with your son. But unlike his father, spencer’s choice of female companion leaves an awful lot to be desired. What’s wrong? I know that fragrance. It’s esme’S. So we’ve been dancing around this topic for a few weeks now and we never seem to go there. So, uh… let’s go there. Are you saying that you… that we… are you pregnant, felicia? Oh, god, no! Oh [Chuckles] Is that what you thought? No, no. What I meant was, is that we have bailey lou, a new life of hope and promise. Ryan has nothing. No one except his own twisted self. Then you’re not upset that we’ve never had a baby of our own? Absolutely not. You helped me raise two beautiful daughters, and that’s good enough for me.

[ Elevator bell dings ] I’m here to visit mr. Chamberlain. Sorry, no visitors for this patient. Wait a minute. You intern at spring ridge? Yes, I do. Dr. Gould asked me to sit with the patient in case he needs to communicate. Hello, daddy. I’m about to make all of your dreams come true.


You know it’s difficult for me to fight the impulse to solve a problem. And in elizabeth’s case? I’ve been thinking about… reaching out to her parents. What’s that? No — no opinion? That’s not like you. Are you genuinely asking me for my opinion, or have you already made up your mind? Cam, I’ve got great news. Hi. Hi. Grandmother, I didn’t know you’d be here. Oh, well, don’t let that stop you. You’ve got great news. Let’s hear it. Yes, there is a genetic component to schizophrenia. But your father’s condition isn’t necessarily something that you would inherit. Well, that’s a relief. And I think marshall will be relieved as well. There are so many…factors that could have gone into this diagnosis, and medicine — medicine’s come a long way in 40 years. Whoever treated your father back then was just learning about what they were dealing with.

[ Sighs ] But still… still? W-what are you not saying? If you wanted to be absolutely sure, you could go in for genetic counseling and testing. Lo ok, trina, I admireyour courage and independence, but you’re gonna need more than that to prove your innocence. Let us help you. I appreciate that, but I can’t involve anyone else. Trina, it’s a little late for that, okay? I’m in this, too, not only as a victim of revenge porn, but as your friend. Look, this is happening to both of us in different ways, and we need to work together. Screw it. Let’s just go straight for esme. Okay? We’ll make her tell the truth. And when esme accuses us of assault? Fine. You can stay here. I’ll take my chances. No, you will not. Neither of us are committing a crime, not even to save me from a crime I didn’t even commit. Well, you know all the right words, but fair or not, the burden of proof is still on you. And that’s why I need to find a way — my own way — of proving that esme set me up. It’s no shock that esme’s perfume lingers here. She just stopped me outside. Really? What did miss muffet want this time? Now that she and spencer are back together, esme hopes that you and i will forget the past, and we’ll be closer than we ever were before. And you believe her? I believe esme wants to be with spencer.

[ Laughs ] Ehh. Or spencer’s trust fund. Maybe both. But esme realizes that if things are gonna work out between her and spencer, our happiness — yours and mine — is essential. Hmm. Happy wife, happy life. Is that it? You took the words right out of my mouth. Your plan is working to perfection. The fuse has been lit and it’s only a matter of time before it blows up ava and nikolas’ marriage. What did you do, esme? Let’s just say I made nikolas an offer he couldn’t refuse. Pray tell. What did you offer him? Me.


No. I haven’t made up my mind, which is exactly why I’m asking for your opinion. Look at your daughter. Mm-hmm. See what she’s doing? She’s tying the knots that you taught her. Yeah, and then she’s untying them. I didn’t teach her that. That part she figured out on her own. Serves me right for having a teacher as a father.

[ Chuckles ] Actually, could cameron and i have a moment alone to talk? Oh, sure. Well, anything that you can say to me, you could say to our grandmother, starting with why you were late for work again. Well, you told me that I had to choose. Oh. And did you? It’s all taken care of. Good. Because I am going camping. Are you gonna be able to take care of everything else here? No. I’m sorry, cam. There’s been a change of plans. In order for me to take care of everything, I don’t have time to bus tables. Consider this my notice. If there is any chance that I can inherit my father’s condition, then I want to know all there is to know about genetic counseling. I-I can put you in touch with a specialist. Okay. The more you know about your father’s condition, the — the better prepared you will be to help him. Help him. Right. Uh, well, if it’s one thing I found out the hard way, is that there’s a very fine line between helping and interfering. So before I commit to anything, I’ll wait for the okay from marshall. Of course. Yes, I-I understand. I mean, unless it means that much to you. Oh, honey, I-I want you to do what’s best for you. You know what? You’re amazing. You’re always thinking about other people and not yourself. So if it means that much to you, baby, say the word and I’ll speak to the specialist. Okay, trina, before you say anything else, this is where I get off. Because you’re a cop. Well, the less I know, the more freedom you have to do what you need to do. All I can say is good luck…to esme. What? What are you talking about, good luck to esme? If you and trina are coming for her, esme needs to look out. You know, I like that guy. You know, we can’t sweep our problems under the rug. We went off the rails because we didn’t trust each other enough to be completely honest. I admit, it was wrong of me to invite spencer and esme to live here without consulting you first. And I admit that while spencer and i have reached a kind of détente, esme is a different story. Forget about esme. Speaking of happy wife, there’s something I want to give you. Just you and me is more than enough. And this year, our annual christmas newsletter is embarrassingly filled with all of our blessings, and we can add bailey lou this year. Sounds good to me.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

[ Sighs ] Oh. Right. [ Sighs ] Is it about ryan? No, they need me at the station. Oh. But it shouldn’t take long. Can I, uh — can I meet you at the restaurant? Well, you know, I’m a cop’s wife. I’m used to waiting. Hey, and don’t worry about ryan. The only place he’s going is back to spring ridge. You had sex with your boyfriend’s father? The plan was to break nikolas and ava up, wasn’t it? If there weren’t guards outside this door and I wasn’t handcuffed to this chair, I would hug you. So tell me everything. How did ava react when you told her? Esme, you did tell ava that mewling idiot she married cheated, didn’t you?


You know, curtis, you’ve gone your whole life without knowing anything about your father’s mental illness, so there’s no rush. You know, there’s no rush to see a genetic specialist. And you and your father, you’ve been doing so good lately. [ Laughs ]

[ Sighs ] Why don’t you wait? Why don’t you talk to him and see what he thinks about it? Thank you for understanding. As soon as I get the all clear, I’m taking marshall home. Home. Sounds good, doesn’t it? It sounds real good. Home.

[ Giggles ]

[ Door closes ]

[ Exhales deeply ] Yes. Hi. This is, um, dr. Portia robinson. I would like to set up a consultation with one of your counselors, please. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I have a few questions that require a, um, genetic specialist. I can’t believe we’re back to square one with esme. Not necessarily. Wait. What? You have a new idea? Yeah. We need to forget about breaking up esme and spencer. We need to break down esme’s story to prove that she’s the guilty one, and I know exactly how to do that. I don’t know where your doctor could be. Epiphany, wait. We have some unfinished business, too. I thought you said your clarinet was damaged. Instruments can be repaired a lot easier than people can. Besides, we, uh, never got around to that second date. Are you asking me out? Are you saying yes?

[ Both laugh ] Hamilton, I know how much you want to help elizabeth, but I think the best thing you can do for her is take care of her boys and trust elizabeth to know what’s best for her. Grandpa! Grandpa! I did it! Hey! Good job. You’re quitting your job? Well, yeah. Ava restored my trust fund allowance. I think I should probably be able to get by on $10,000. $10,000 a year? No, cam, per week.

[ Door opens ] Come on, cam, it’s time to go. We have a trip to get to. Lo ok, spencer, you’reon the schedule tonight. I have no one else to cover for you. Finish your shift. I gotta go. Okay. Yeah. No, I guess one last shift won’t hurt. Bussing tables is a lot easier than living at wyndemere with esme, ava, and your dad. I hope you know what you’re doing. Thank you, grandma. Oh, thank you. You made the right choice. Have fun. Okay. Grandmother, say something. Laura: Well, I’m just wondering if ava has given you back your trust fund allowance, what are you giving her in return? Nikolas, I don’t need presents. All I want is for us to be open and honest with each other going forward. Oh, I…totally agree. That is why I found the perfect way to thank you for giving our marriage a second chance. What’s that? I want a divorce. I’m playing the long game, waiting for just the right moment for ava to learn about nikolas’s infidelity. I see. I knew you’d understand. Indeed, I do. That hurts. It’s meant to. Because words can’t possibly express my disappointment. Ah, anything on tap. Actually, I wanted to talk to you about my friend over there. What about him? Well, you know the $100 he gave you? He really didn’t mean anything bad by it. It’s just the other day when you gave him pretzels instead of peanuts, he had this stupid idea that you liked him. I do like him. Come again? I like him a lot. You’re talking about that guy right over there? Yes. Spence. The reason I got so upset about the money, I thought he didn’t respect me. So you’re saying that you could really get serious with him? Yeah. Well, what happens if you guys hit it off and get a place together? I mean, what about his roommate, huh? Huh? What about the car they share and the joint chec king account? Um, I don’t even know what to say here. Excuse me. So? Sorry, bro. She ain’t into dudes. What?! Yeah.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Belle: I can’t believe you. You’re just calmly saying that shawn’s baby might die and that that would be, what, a bright side to this?

Ej: Well, isn’t the child jan is carrying the reason you and shawn are separated? So if worst comes to worst–

Belle: Just stop it. Stop it.

Ej: Oh, come on.

Belle: No, you come on. Why are you saying this? What is wrong with you?

Jan: [Gasping]

Shawn: Come on, it’s okay, it’s okay, jan, it’s almost over, it’s almost over.

Jan: [Gasping] Oh, god, they’re coming so close together.

Shawn: They’ve given you an iv to slow it down, all right? It should kick in soon, all right?

Jan: Oh, god, what if it doesn’t? Oh. What if the baby comes today? It’s too soon.

Marlena: Oh, hi, sarah.

Sarah: Hi. Is kayla on duty?

Marlena: She is. I think she might be in surgery.

Sarah: I need help. I think the antidote is wearing off.

Kate: Lucas? Answer me, are you drinking?

Lucas: Look, that’s not mine.

Kate: Oh, my god. Okay, I think you can do better than that.

Lucas: I am telling you the truth, okay? That glass belongs to your ex-boyfriend, clyde weston. He just left here. I didn’t take a sip of it. I promise you. I swear.

Kate: Okay, I did see clyde leaving when I was coming in.

Lucas: Oh, great, thanks for trusting me, I appreciate that. Oh, wait, you don’t want to do that–no, no, no! Clyde drank out of that glass.

Kate: Trust me. I need it. I just had a talk with chad.

Lucas: So what? What’s the big deal?

Kate: So the big deal is that he thought I should know… that he told abigail that you’re the one who kidnapped sami.

Lucas: [Whispers] What? You got to be kidding me.

Chad: So when you say gwen wasn’t too happy–

Abigail: That I accidentally broke the stupid mug she made for my dad? Ha. It’s an understatement. She also said that she would “make…me…pay.”

Chad: Did she…say how she was…gonna do that?

Abigail: No. No, she was just trying to scare me. Could you not look so worried? The woman’s behind bars. There’s nothing she can do to me.

[Line ringing]

Gwen: It’s gwen. Who else would be bloody phoning you from prison? Look, I need to talk to you about abigail. If I don’t get to spend my father’s birthday with him, then neither does she.

Leo: Don’t you think you’re being a little dramatic?

Gwen: No, leo, I don’T. I asked her for one tiny little simple favor. I just wanted to make sure that my father would receive the gift that I made for him for his birthday. And you know what she did? She smashed it into tiny million pieces.

Leo: That was rude, but–

Gwen: Shh. This is what I want you to do. I want you to find the nearest sharpest object and I want you to stab her in the heart with it.

[Ominous music]

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

[Soft orchestration]

Marlena: What makes you think the antidote is wearing off?

Sarah: Xander and I, uh, went to see my mom to tell her that I had gotten my memory back and that we were together.

Marlena: I know, I was happy to hear that news.

Sarah: Thank you. And while we were there, I– I had a hallucination.

Marlena: What kind of hallucination?

Sarah: I saw kristen…and she had a syringe in her hand. And, marlena, it was so real. And I thought that she was coming after me again and then I realized that it wasn’t kristen, it was victor and he was just holding a pen in his hand.

Marlena: How did they react?

Sarah: They didn’T. They don’t know. I– it happened so fast that they just didn’t catch on, thank god, because I don’t want them to worry, but I– I’m scared to death. Do you know what’s happening to me?

Marlena: The important thing is for you to not to panic.

Sarah: How do I do that? I-I’m seeing things that aren’t there. Am I losing my mind? What did gwen do to me?

Leo: Gwenevere, this sounds a little extreme, even for you.

Gwen: Leo, do you remember our double wedding? You remember that was supposed to be the day that would change our lives forever? And then do you remember being dumped by xander and craig? So here’s the burning question. Why is it that you and i are always the ones who suffer when abigail and chad get to go on living their perfect, happy little lives together?

Leo: I am just infuriated as you are, but–

Gwen: Why is there even a but in this? My god, don’t tell me you’re folding. What happened to the bloke who said he wants to inflict pain on all the ones who hurt him?

Leo: I am that bloke. I told you what I did to sonny and chad.

Gwen: Pfff. Please. Come on, planting sleazy rumors in a tabloid that everybody knows is just chock-full of lies. No, we need to do what they did to us. We need to hurt them the way that they hurt us.

[Beep beep]

Leo: Gwen, I gotta go. My phone is about to die.

Gwen: And hopefully, so is abigail because if she doesn’t–

[Beep] Leo? Leo!

[Huffs]

Abigail: Gwen’s just going to sit around hating my guts like she always does. What’s new?

Chad: Well, while we’re on the subject of people who hate our guts–

Abigail: Oof. Did you talk to kate?

Chad: Yeah, I told her that you know lucas is the one that kidnapped sami.

Abigail: How’d she take it?

Chad: She was not pleased.

Abigail: Well, you told her I was going to keep my mouth shut, right?

Chad: Yep. Pretty much those exact same words.

Lucas: Why the hell would chad do something like that?

Kate: He didn’t have a choice, okay? Abigail got it into her head that she wanted to solve the mystery and she was planning on publishing the article about it in “the spectator.”

Lucas: Oh, my god.

Kate: Yeah, well, she’d already dug up your little friend pete.

Lucas: How? How’d she do that?

Kate: Well, apparently he got himself arrested again, so she was determined to go to wisconsin and interview him.

Lucas: Oh, my god, just what I need. This is great. Perfect.

Kate: Yeah, well, chad tried to talk her out of it, but he couldn’t do it and, you know, he was worried about what could happen to her if she went down to investigate. So…[Sighs] Well, he thought the best way to get out of it was to tell her that it was her beloved uncle lucas who kidnapped sami and frankly, sweetie, I can’t blame him.

Lucas: Well, I can blame him. What if chad or abigail tells ej? What if they tell ej or anyone else for that matter? I’m screwed!

Ej: Didn’t you say that if shawn told you immediately after he slept with jan that you would try and convince her to take the morning after pill?

Belle: Well, yeah, I did say that, but that’s not the same thing. The morning after pill prevents pregnancy–it doesn’t end one. This is a life we’re talking about, okay? And I do not, nor have I ever, wished this baby dead. But it could. It could die. Oh, my god. I am sitting here feeling sorry for myself, and shawn’s probably at the hospital right now freaking out, so I have to go.

Ej: Why would you do that?

Belle: Because whether I like it or not, this is shawn’s baby and this child could– I would never forgive myself if I wasn’t there. The lows of bipolar depression

Marlena: You are not losing your mind.

Sarah: Then why do I think that I saw kristen? The antidote is supposed to reverse the effects of rolf’s drug, right?

Marlena: And it has set aside a lot of the damage you’ve been through. But because of the dosage you have, well, there might… might be flare-ups. I know kayla has prescribed the medication for you.

Sarah: The one that helped abigail.

Marlena: But the dosage may have to be increased.

Sarah: Um… let me ask you something. If we do increase my meds, are these hallucinations something that I’m just going to have live with for the rest of my life?

Marlena: I certainly hope not. But you did have such a large dose, it’s hard to give you any guarantees.

Sarah: Oh, my god.

Marlena: We can… adjust the dosage of your new medication, but…it’s been so effective. You know, I think we have reason to be optimistic.

Sarah: If you say so.

Marlena: I also think you might want to talk to abigail. She’s been through all this.

Sarah: Yeah, that’s a great idea. Thank you so much for talking me down, marlena.

Marlena: Any time at all.

Sarah: [Sniffling]

[Elevator bell dings] Belle, hi, honey, what are you doing here?

Belle: Hi. I was with shawn when you called to say jan was in labor.

Marlena: Yes. Well, she was, uh, admitted a little while ago.

Belle: She can’t have the baby now though, right? It’s so soon.

Marlena: Yeah, it is soon. They’ve have her on some medication to slow down the contractions or even stop them, hopefully.

Shawn: Jan just passed out.

Marlena: Sorry, honey.

[Edgy music]

Ej: I was too direct with belle just now. I thought I was comforting her, but she left deeply offended. You wouldn’t have cared about that, as long as you made your point. I, however, do care. So I suppose I should find a way to…make this right. With no help from you.

[Deep sigh]

Leo: Good lord, I thought he’d never shut up and leave. Seems like everyone around here uses you as some kind of sounding board. So, pops, what do I do about abigail? Or…to her?

Chad: Well, you’re right. Kate and lucas have nothing to worry about. Have I thanked you enough for agreeing not to say anything?

Abigail: I can always stand to hear it again.

Chad: Yeah?

Abigail: Mm-hmm.

Chad: Well, I’m sorry for putting you in that position. I never want to ask you to lie to anyone, especially a member of your own family.

Abigail: Lucas is my mom’s half-brother. I’m not related to sami by blood, not like you and ej.

Chad: Ha ha. Keeping secrets from each other is part of my family’s favorite pastime. Keeping secrets from my wife is not something I’ll ever do again.

Abigail: There’s nothing you can’t tell me. I’m always gonna be on your side.

Chad: You’ve always stood by me.

Abigail: You’re my husband and the father of my children, and I also happen to love you a whole damn lot.

Chad: Oh yeah?

Abigail: Yeah. Uh, speaking of our children, I took my temperature this morning.

Chad: Oh yeah. Are you sick?

Abigail: No. What I am is ovulating.

Chad: Well, okay then, maybe we should probably get out of here.

[Soft, light music]

Time. It’s life’s most precious commodity,

Shawn: Hey.

Belle: Hey. How is she?

Shawn: They, uh… they rushed her to the or.

Belle: She’s in surgery?

Shawn: They said that she had something called a placental abruption.

Belle: A woman in my office had that. It’s where the placenta separates from the uterine wall.

Shawn: What happened to her?

Belle: She lost the baby. I’m sorry.

Shawn: No, it’s all right, I…I asked, so–

Belle: Well, what did my mom say?

Shawn: She said that she’d stay with jan. And I tried to go with her, but they wouldn’t let me. They just– they were all so serious when they rushed her out of there. I have no idea what’s gonna happen to her. Or to the baby.

Kate: Okay, look. Chad gave me his word abigail is not going to say anything.

Lucas: And you bought that?

Kate: Yes, I bought it. She’s not going to send her uncle to prison, lucas.

Lucas: Why not? She sent her own sister there.

Kate: Okay, all right. That’s completely different and you know it is. My point is, abigail hates gwen. She loves you. And she would understand that you were so desperate to keep sami from going back to ej, you–

[Sighs] Oh, my god, you did a bone-headed thing.

Lucas: I know that–thank you for addressing that now.

Kate: My point is, she’s not gonna send you to jail just because she feels like it. She’s a good person, lucas.

Lucas: She’s a good person. She’s an editor at a newspaper, and you told me yourself she was working on sami’s kidnapping story. What if she decides to run the story anyway? What happens then?

Kate: Oh, my god, I mean, god, I… maybe you should just…

Lucas: What? What? Spit it out, I know you’re gonna say it anyway, just say it.

Kate: Well, you’re not gonna like it.

Lucas: What’s new?

Kate: Don’t you think it would solve all your problems if you just told sami the truth?

Lucas: Oh, yeah, that would really work out great for me. Nice idea.

Kate: You don’t know! I mean, how many times over the years have the two of you forgiven each other for doing horrible things? Why wouldn’t she eventually understand and forgive you? Lucas, if you’re thinking of marrying sami, you can’t live with this secret between you.

[Distant background chatter]

Gwen: What are you doing here?

Sarah: We haven’t been properly introduced. I’m sarah horton. Oh, come on. My face has to seem a little familiar. Seeing as how you borrowed it to break up with xander as me. Gotta be a little strange for you, huh? It’s like looking into a mirror.

Leo: Hello?

[Distant laughter, chatter]

Chad: He’s never seen two people kissing before.

Abigail: In this house, maybe not.

Chad: Mmm. So is this whole, uh, whole temperature thing, is it real?

Abigail: It’s pretty reliable. I have some other signs too.

Chad: Yeah?

Abigail: Mm-hmm.

Chad: Well, then, let’s seal the deal.

[Intense percussive music]

It’s started. Somewhere between a cuddle

Gwen: Look, sarah, I-I… I really don’t want to get into this now.

Sarah: Oh, you don’t? That’s too bad. You knew that kristen was holding me prisoner on that island, and you left me there. Stranded. I’d probably still be there if it weren’t for abigail.

Gwen: If it weren’t for abigail, you probably would never have been sent to that bloody island.

Sarah: Oh, yes, please, please tell me–how is it abigail’s fault?

Gwen: That syringe that kristen jabbed you with… she never would’ve gotten her hands on it if abigail hadn’t have left it in the good old dimera secret room. You know she was planning to use it on me.

Sarah: Oh, that’s right. You’re the victim in all of this.

Gwen: I didn’t kidnap you, did I? So why don’t you just go find kristen a-and tell her all your troubles?

Sarah: Oh, I plan to. But I thought I’d start with you first. When they finally got back here, when xander got me the antidote that would end the hell I had been living in, that didn’t work for you. So you made sure I got a double dose of that crazy-making drug.

Gwen: You got the antidote, didn’t you? I mean, look at you. You’re…you’re good as new. You’re perfect. So why are you here bothering me?

[Intense, dark music]

Chad: Do you think today’s the day that we made a baby?

Abigail: I mean, if we didn’t, it wasn’t for lack of trying.

[Giggles] But I feel like we did.

Chad: What? Wow.

Abigail: What are you hoping for? Another girl or another boy?

Chad: Hmm.

[Sucks tongue] Twins.

Abigail: Twins. You realize we’d be seriously outnumbered.

Chad: Even with one more, we’d have to switch to a zone defense. At least thomas and charlotte are old enough to help out.

Abigail: You mean the kids who have clogged literally every single drain in this house with glitter slime?

Chad: Fair. Okay, so maybe another year or two. Our kids are… pretty precocious, aren’t they?

Abigail: That’s what the plumber said. Uh…speaking of our kids, what do you think about taking a little trip with them tonight?

Chad: Tonight?

Abigail: Mm-hmm.

Chad: Where?

Abigail: Well, tomorrow’s my dad’s birthday. I think I’d really like to be with him. So…we could all fly to boston together. What do you think?

Chad: I think that it is a great idea. Seems pretty sudden though. Think that maybe we could maybe leave in the morning? If we leave early enough, we’ll still have plenty of time to celebrate.

Abigail: Mmm… sure. Why not? I mean, what difference does one night make?

Shawn: So what, uh…so what are you doing here anyway?

Belle: I was worried about the baby. And you. You must be scared.

Shawn: Yeah. Yeah, I am.

[Sighs] It’s the baby that I never wanted to happen. And then I started thinking about…’bout whether or not it’s going to be a boy or a girl and…what it would be like to take care of a new baby and–

Belle: Yeah, well, there’s the best doctors here, right? And you said my mom’s with jan. She’ll make sure gets the very best care. She likes her obstetrician, right?

Shawn: You know, this-this thing that… this thing that happened to her, they said that the baby might be-might be deprived of oxygen and nourishment, and that it’s just going to be touch and go and–

Belle: Come here. Come here. You just… you have to keep believing the baby’s going to be okay.

Shawn: I just wonder how long it’s going to be until I hear something.

Belle: No matter how long it takes, I’ll be here with you.

Lucas: Maybe you’re right. Maybe I will tell sami the truth.

Kate: Will you?

Lucas: Of course not! No way. What do you think she’s gonna do when she finds out that i I kidnapped her? What is she gonna say, “let bygones be bygones”?

Kate: Well, no, not right away.

Lucas: No, as soon she finds out that I’m the guy who’s responsible for holding her against her will for months, you know what she’s going to do? She’s not going marry me. She’s gonna send me to prison. And then she’s going to go back to ej. She’s going to go back to ej so fast, our heads will spin.

Kate: Okay, look. Fine. I get it. I get it, I get it, I get it. And honestly it’s not like I want this information to come out either, you know? I mean, if roman finds outut I kept the information from him, that you had kidnapped sami, he’s never going to forgive me.

Lucas: I know, I know. Holding is a grudge is in the brady dna.

Kate: Oh, god, tell me about it. So it’s fine. Don’t tell sami. I mean, truthfully, lucas, I just hated seeing all of this eat away at you.

Lucas: You think I like it? I don’t like it either, you know? I got no choice.

Kate: I know. Tell you what, why don’t we… why don’t we meet here for dinner tonight? What do you say?

Lucas: Together?

Kate: Yes, together. Who knows, I’ll probably annoy you so much that you’ll forget all about abigail.

Lucas: Fine. Fine, I’ll meet you here later.

Kate: Thank you. All right, see you later.

Lucas: All right.

Chad: Keep doing that and I’m going to have to start trying for those twins.

[Abigail giggles]

[Door opens]

Abigail: Hey!

Chad: Hey!

Abigail: Done with your swimming lesson already?

Thomas: Mom, it was over half an hour ago.

Abigail: Oh, my gosh.

Chad: Yeah.

Abigail: It was. Pfft.

Chad: Time flies when you’re having fun.

Abigail: So, what do you guys think about going on a little trip to boston to surprise your grandpa for his birthday?

Charlotte: Can we go on grandpa stefano’s airplane?

Chad: I think the chances of that are excellent.

Charlotte: Yay!

[Both laugh]

Abigail: What do you think, honey?

Thomas: What if my loose tooth comes out? Will the tooth fairy find us in boston?

Abigail: Of course she will.

Thomas: It’s a he. And what about “minions”?

Abigail: Uh…what?

Chad: Uh, mommy has had a lot on her mind. Dimera’s doing a special screening of the new “minions” movie, and I said that we could go.

Abigail: Oh, well, what time is the screening?

Chad: It is…in like an hour. We can still make it, right, guys?

Thomas: Can you come too?

Abigail: I would love to–

[Beep beep] But, uh…oh, boy. I still have to approve the layout for the style section. My assistant’s going to send it to me in one hour.

Charlotte: So we can’t go to the movie?

Chad: Well, is it okay if I take you?

Charlotte: Yeah. We’re going to see “minions.”

Chad and abigail: Yes.

Abigail: But first you gotta change your clothes, okay? So I laid some things out on your bed.

Thomas: Cool!

Abigail: Yeah.

Charlotte: Bye, mommy.

Abigail: Excuse me! Hugs. Give me a hug here, you. Get over here, you. Mm-mm-mm-mm! Okay, I love you. Have fun at the movie.

Thomas: Bye.

Abigail: Bye. Mwah. May it always be that easy to make them happy.

[Both chuckle]

Sarah: You ask why I’m bothering you? Do I really have to spell it out?

Gwen: You got what you wanted, didn’t you?

Sarah: I had to relive the death of my baby! Do you have any idea what that’s like?

Gwen: Yeah, actually, I do.

Sarah: Try doing it twice. And, yes, I got my memory back. Thank you for asking. But even with that antidote, I still have hallucinations. I thought that victor was kristen, and I nearly attacked him.

Gwen: Oh, wow, wish i could’ve been there to see that.

Sarah: You are a miserable human being.

Gwen: I am paying for it now, aren’t I? I’m here, I’m stuck in this horrible hellhole. I have lost everything. I have lost my family, I have lost my freedom. I lost xander.

Sarah: You did it all to yourself. Xander and I are back together, by the way.

Gwen: That is only because my darling sister stopped the wedding. He loved me. He did. We were going to be married. That’s how much he grieved for you.

Sarah: Yeah, we sorted all that out. We’re very…very happy. So, think about that when they take you back to your cell.

Belle: Ej.

Shawn: What are you doing here?

Ej: I wanted to inquire about the baby.

Shawn: You couldn’t care less about my baby.

Ej: I understand how worried you must be.

Shawn: Yeah, you know what? I am worried, and the last thing I want to deal with is you, so why don’t you get the hell out of here? Well, what are you waiting for, huh?

Belle: Mom.

Shawn: Marlena. What happened in the or? Did they stop the bleeding?

Marlena: Yes. They did. Jan is going to be fine. But they had to deliver the baby.

Shawn: They did?

Marlena: He’s small, but he’s alive.

Shawn: He?

Marlena: Oh, yes, you’ve had a son.

[Emotional music]

Shawn: So the baby, he’s, uh, he’s all right?

Marlena: Yes. They rushed him to the nicu. He’ll be there for quite a while.

Shawn: Can I see him?

Marlena: No, no, they’re still evaluating him.

Shawn: Okay. Uh, a-and what about jan? Where is she?

Marlena: They’ve taken jan back to her room. She wasn’t completely out of the anesthesia yet.

Shawn: Okay. Uh… I should… I should probably be there when she wakes up, I think. Um… look, thank you. Thank you for staying with me.

Marlena: Well, I think I’ll go back to the nicu and see if I can get any information for shawn. Honey.

Ej: That must’ve been a lot to take in. I wish you’d say something.

Belle: Just get me out of here.

Ej: Where would you like to go?

Belle: Anywhere.

[Sniffling]

[Distant chatter]

[Line rings]

Gwen: It’s gwen. I need your help.

Chad: Are you skipping the brand-new “minions” movie to scroll through your feed?

Abigail: Pfft. Trust me, if I didn’t have to check this page layout, my butt would be right there in the front row right next to you.

Chad: It’s okay. You’re not really well enough informed of whether or not the minions know spongebob.

Abigail: We got great kids, don’t we?

Chad: We sure do.

Abigail: We’re lucky.

Chad: Yes, we are. Oh, uh, what was the whole tooth fairy thing about?

Abigail: You better get the kids rounded up. I’ll tell you when you get back.

Chad: All right.

Abigail: Hey. I love you.

Chad: I love you.

Lucas: For all I know, abigail could be writing that story right now. By the morning I’d be finished. Will and allie are going to hate me. Sami’s going to hate me for sure, I know that. And I might be headed for prison.

Moderate to severe eczema

[Beep beep]

[Dark music]

[Lucas groans] Ohh…

Ej: Are you feeling any better?

Belle: Even a gourmet dinner can’t erase this day, but the second bottle of wine definitely took the edge off.

Ej: I just wanted to say sorry for the thoughtless thing I said today. I never should’ve been so unfeeling about a child’s life. All I can say for myself is that it was a very ham-handed attempt to make you feel better.

Belle: And I do so want to. Please…make me feel better.

Hey! Rizczech!

Gwen: Oh. Hi, roy.

You missed bed check. Where the hell have you been?

Gwen: I have a pass to use the library. You can ask the matron.

We searched the library.

Gwen: Well, I fell asleep in a corner. Just woke up. Come on, roy. Where else could I have been?

Chad: Abby, you missed the best “minions” movie yet. Abby? Abby!

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Katie: Ah, it’s so good to be back.

Donna: Well, we came here to surprise brooke with this brunch, but apparently she’s at a meeting so, uh–

Hope: Well, uh, she’s missing out because I’m happy that I caught you.

Katie: I’ve just missed everyone so much. I’ve missed being here. As much as I liked being at international and, of course, spending time with will.

Donna: There’s no place like home.

Katie: I just wish I’d been a better sister. Uh, to you and to brooke, I feel terrible that I haven’t been here while she was going through everything that she went through.

Donna: Stop, stop doing that to yourself. You were in touch with us– us constantly. And we always felt your love and your support.

Katie: I just can’t believe what sheila did. I mean, I’m still trying to wrap my head around what she did to steffy and to finn and w she targeted brooke. I just hope that brooke and ridge can get back on track soon.

Ridge: Well, this is pretty cool. Not too shabby.

Quinn: What?

Ridge: Numbers for your jewelry line, evenetter than last year. That’s gotta make you happy.

Quinn: Yeah, thanks. I guess.

Ridge: You guess? This is great work. You don’t feel a sense of ide, maybe?

Quinn: I do. I do. I just have other things on my mind.

Ridge: Huh. Like what? You and my dad, or?

Quinn: Uh… your dad and I are fine. Thank you for asking.

Rge: Huh. Okay. Good.

Quinn: Good, yeah, right, of course,t’s iod. I mean, I don’t see your dad all that often. He, uh– he’s very busy. Spends a lot of time at the club.

R>>Ge: I know! What is that, pickle ball? He just picked that andup I don’t– I don’t know– maybe you should lea.Rn then the two of you can play together and you can spend more time with my dad.

Quinn: I uld love to spend more time with eric.

Ridge: To be fair, you’re luc that you’re spending time with him at all, after what you did with carter.

Donna: ,So I’m dying to know, how are you and bill? Is he still trng to woo you back?

Katie: Um, yes.

Hope: And is it working?

Donna: Not that we’re prying or, you kn–

Katie: No, no, of course not. Um, there’s really not a whole lot to tell, to be honest. He wants us to be together again and he seems sincere.

Donna: Well, I– I’m sure he is. He loves you, katie.

Katie: Well, I– I don’t doubt that, but I– I’m guarded. I mean, we’ve been through so much.

Donna: Every relationship has its challenges but if the love is there… the question is, do you still love bill?

Katie: I– it’s never been

issue of love.

Donna: Well, that’s not really an answer now, is it?

Katie: Okay. Well, ah, I– I guess the way I can answ that is tt for me, loving bill spencer is just I can’t not love him. Even though he can be the single most irritating man on the planet sometimes. I know him very well. And ultimately, ah… I have to wonder if deep down, he might always want tbe with brooke. And– and I’m not saying that because I’m upset. I’m not. It’s just– it’s just the way it is. So, I guess, since we’re on the subject, I don’t really want to put you on the spot but you do live onhe property, you’re married to his son, so has bill been coming around? I mean, now that brooke and ridge are apart, do you think he wants her back?

Paris: Oh, my god, what was that about?

Carte I guess, I, um– I couldn’t help myself. I had to kiss you.

Paris: You had to?

Carter: I needed to. If I– if I overstepped then…

Paris: No, uh, that’s not what I’m saying. It’s just the last thing I expected.

Carter: That’s understandable, uh, after the way we left things.

Paris: Mm, after the way you left things because you were the one–

Carter: I know, I know, and I know that my feelings have been all over the place. You know, I– I thought I– I thought that I knew what I– and then as it turns out, right, as it turns out, it– it was never…

Pis: Ar.

Carter: I’m not making sense right now.

[ Laughing ]

Paris: No, you’re definitely not, but I’m not sure what to make of it either. Because you’re normally so together.

Carter: At work, yes. But in my personal life, recently–

[ Chuckling ] — That’s a whole ‘nother story. Still, I finally see how it has to be.

Quinn: You’re never going to let me forget, are you?

Ridge: Come on, I’m not being cruel. I’m saying you’re lucky.

Quinn: You thin I don’t know that? That I feel blessed that your father took me back? You know, I’m just– I’m just grateful that I married a man who isn’t vindictive and spiteful, because I know eric would never hurt me the way I hurt him.

[ Phone beeps ] Yeahi’ve got to go. I’ve got a distributor downstairs.

Ridge: Hey, quinn.

Quinn: What?

Ridge: I’m just giving you a hard time. I know deep down, you care about my dad.

Quinn: Yeah.

Grace: Ridge.

[ Door slams ] Something’s going on. My daughter is being harassed here at work.

Rge: Id- wait, she’s being harassed? By whom?

Grace: Forrester creation’s O. Carter walton.

Paris: Why?

Carter: Why, why, what?

Paris: Why are you coming to me like this all of a sudden?

Carter: Because I– I can’t go on like this any longer. I can’t keep putting my life on hold. I need– I need to move forward.

Paris: So, carter, what are you saying? You want me back?

Ridge: Carter is harassing paris?

Grace: I realize you and carter are goofriends. And I’m sure you think you know him–

Ridge: I do know him! Ah, this is a very serious accusation.

Grace: It’s happening right now in an office across the hall. I saw it with my own eyes. Carter had his lips all over my little girl again.

Ridge: Again?

Grace: Yes, again. I caught them at his apartment not long ago.

Ridge: At his apartment? Not even here, that–

Grace: He had his lips all over her, just flaunting it in my face after I had expressly rbidden him from getting anywhere near my daughter.

Ridge: Okay, slow down. I’m trying to understand what’s going on here.

Grace: Carter is manipulating my little girl’s feelings. He’s using her. And I won’t stand for it, ridge. And I’m not going to let him do what he did to zoe. It almost destroyed her! And I’m not going to let him treat her the way he treated your father’s wife. Carter’s gotta be stopped.

Katie: So, I was all geared up to talk to brooke about this but she’s not here and you are, so lucky you. Just– yes or no? Has– has bill been coming around, or not?

[ Inhaling ]

Hope: No. Not at all. I mean not coming around for my mom. And even if he had, it would be pointless because my mother is totally and completelyevoted to ridgE.

Katie: Well, I know that, but bill has always liked a challenge, especially when he sees an opening.

Hope: Oh, there is no opening. Trust me, I mean– after these past few months, it is very clear that my mom’s heart belongs to ridge. I mean, now and always.

Donna: That is true love.

Katie: Well, I’m not sure that bill would see it that way. He’s never thought the dressmaker was right for brooke.

Donna: Oh. Well, luckily, bill spencer doesn’t get to choose who’s right for brooke. Hmm?

Katie: Hmm. Okay. Well, now that I’ve grilled hope and we’ve talked about brooke and me, what about you, donna? What man is in your life?

Donna: You are,

and always will be,

the great love of my life.

[ Door bangs ]

Quinn: Well, there’s my handsome husband. Oh!

Eric: Hey.

Quinn: It looks like I got home just in time.

Eric: In time for what?

Quinn: Well, it looks like you were lost in happy thghts. And I hope you’re going to tell me those happy thoughts were about me.

With age comes more…

Katie: So, donna, is there someone special in your life?

Donna: Well, yeah. I mean, I have a lot of special people. My sisters, and my niece. Nieces and nephews. And, you know–

Katie: That’s not exactly what I was talking about, but okay, all right, cool. I get it. We’re not going to intrude. I’m not going to, anyway. But I just want you knoto that there is someone special out there for you. The man of your dreams. And he might even be closer than you think.

Donna: Okay. Okay. Let’s just, um, you know, get back to you and bill.

Hope: Okay, look. For what it’s worth, you twalready share a life together. You share a child. And if he’s what you want then I think you should go for it. I mean, if anything, we have learned recently that life is srt.

Katie: Hmm.

Hope: And you never know what is going to happe I mean, anything is possible. I mean, look– look what happened with eric and quinn, right? She had an affair with carter but he still forgave her and took her back. And that man is a saint, let’s be hones I mt,n–

[ Laughs ] — That is the perfect example of a loving, understanding, committed man.

Quinn: I don’t know what got into me. You don’t have to answer that.

Eric: It’s okay.

Quinn: No. No, it’s not okay. I sound like some insecure wife who needs her husband to tell her that she’s always on his mind. And that’s ridiculous. I don’t expect that.

Eric: No, it’s not ridiculous. Everybody needs to know that they’re appreciated and loved.

Quinn: Yeah. But I–

Eric: But what?

Quinn: Well… well, if I’m being honest with myself and with you…

[ Sighing ] Yes, we’re back together and– and we’re living– living in this home together,but we both have acknowledged that things haven’t been the same between us since– since I betrayed you, and I– um, I take full responsibility for that. I hurt you, eric. I know I hurt you deeply and– and I’m so sorry. I– I can’t apologize to you enough. But I’m also a very patient woman and whatever time you need to take, I want you to take it. Whatever you need to do to get past this, then– then you do it. Becausi believe in our marriage and in our future and– and both of those things are possible because you opened up your heart to me and you– you let me back into this home. And I am so– so fortunate to have such a loving, loyal husband.

Carter: I, um– I can’t sto thinking about everything that happened. And what brought us together and I know this– this is coming out of nowhere especially when I was so adamant about us not being gether. But we have to be. I need this, paris. More tn you can ever know.

Paris: I mean, I never lost hope and I’m glad I didn’T. But I know it’s complicated with zende and my mom, but we’ll make them understand. They’ll understand and they’ll be happy for us.

[ Phone dinging ] Oh, okay. I have a meeting. I’ll reschule, but–

Carter: No, no, no, no, no, ‘s fite. Anwe can’t talk here really any way.

Paris: I can’t wait to be alone with you again. I’ll see you.

Ridge: So, I just had a very interesting run-in with grace. She seems to think that you were in here, making out with her daughter. Tell mshe’e wrong. Do you struggle with occasional nerve aches

Carter: Ridge, look, man.

Ridge: Look what? Just tell me grace was wrong. That’s all I need to hear.

Carter: I can’T. Because she isn’T.

Ridge: Oh, come–

Carter: Look, paris and I–

Ridge: “Paris and I,” how– what, argh– how is it even in the same sentence? You and paris. You know how zende feels about the wom–

Carter: Yes, I do, but–

Ridge: But what? This is starting to be a– a pattern, right? Is there something wrong with you? Is there something wrong?

Carter: I don’t know! I don’t know, man. All I know is I need to move on.

Ridge: Oh, you need to move on, but move on to what?

Carter: With my life, ridge!

Ridge: Easy!

Carter: Look, man, I’m tired of sitting on the side lines and watching everyone fall in lov and– and get married, and start families. I’m sick of it.

Ridge: Oh, so now you wanna start a family? With paris?

Carter: I– I’m not sure.

Ridge: You’re not sure? Well, don’t think about starting a family if you’re not sure. What are you doing? She’s– she’s a nice woman. She’s– is she the one? Is she the one you’re in love with?

Quinn: Stop thinking about that. Focus on eric. My sweet, wonderful husband who’s devoted only to me.

Hope: You agree with me about eric, right? I mean, you know him so well. He’s such a kind, devoted man.

Donna: Uh, yeah, mean, of course I agree. Eric is remarkable and quinn is lucky that she’s his wife. Just as ridge is lucky to have brooke for a wife.

Katie: I just know that ridge is going to go back to brooke. I mean, they’re finally going to have their happily ev after.

Hope: And, uh, what about you, aunt donna? I mean, we want that for you. We want you to have a lifelong love.

Katie: Listen, we all know that bill is the love of my life and eric is the love of yours. It’s just so sad that he’s with quinn.

Quinn: Mmm. I love sharing this home with you. You’ve brought such peace into my life– a happiness I have never known until you. You know, I always went through life alone, right? A single mom, raising a young son. And I was shut off. I– I had my walls up and I surrounded myself with all the wrong people. Wrong men. And I got hurt. But all that changed when I met you. My wonderful, steadfast, loyal husband.

Young & The Restless Update

Recap written by Christine

Devon and Lily were at Nate’s having a work meeting. Billy came in late and apologized, then he pulled Lily aside to talk. She quietly told him to focus on the launch instead of his ex. He didn’t like the way things ended last night. Lily said it wasn’t the time, then she returned to the meeting. Nate said that the business press was salivating for some details about Chancellor Winters’ plans. He wanted to make sure they were going to make some specific announcements about their project tonight at the party. Devon said they were going to tease the up and coming projects but the focus would be on the overall vision of the future – two companies and families uniting to carry on an amazing legacy. Nate was honored to be part of the legacy, but he didn’t think they should give the impression that this merger was a symbolic change. He thought they needed to give the reporters something juicy. He asked what Lily thought. She sided with Devon, saying that they should focus on the big picture instead of the details. Lily got a call about work, and she and Devon stepped away to handle the issue. Nate tried to get Billy on his side. Billy said that the CEOs already made the decision. Everyone started working on the problem with the party. Something that they needed for tonight wasn’t ready.

Billy, Lily, Nate and Devon went to The Grand Phoenix. Crystal, the hotel manager, apologized and said Phyllis wouldn’t be here tonight, because she was visiting her son. Lily said Phyllis already contacted her. Abby was taking over, and she was already in the ballroom. Billy and Devon were surprised Abby was doing a favor for Phyllis. Lily said that Abby was doing this for them, not Phyllis. Devon felt good that Abby was involved. Nate and Devon went to do a sound check. Billy held Lily back. She wanted to talk later, but he said no, because she said some harsh things last night, and she’d been avoiding the conversation ever since. She said she had work to do. He wanted to explain himself. Lily thought the simple solution was for Billy to let Victoria and Ashland go. She thought he should respect Victoria’s autonomy as a woman and a mother. He said he did. She told him to stop thinking that Victoria would endanger the kids. She felt there was no need to change the custody agreement and that he was only doing this to interfere. He denied that. She told him to stop trying to think he could fix Victoria’s life. She said Victoria wanted to leave town because everyone was trying to micromanage her.

Billy said he wasn’t trying to stay involved in Victoria’s life. He had legitimate concerns, mostly because he hurt Victoria in the past, until she finally had enough and got rid of him. Lily said that Billy was making this about himself, and Victoria would say it wasn’t about him. Billy said that could be true, but he couldn’t stop worrying about Victoria, and this could have massive effects on the kids. Lily said that Billy didn’t have the right to try and run Victoria’s life. Billy said he wasn’t the same person he was when he was with Victoria, but because of that experience, he could see how this was going to unravel, and he was trying to stop her from getting her heart crushed. Lily felt that Victoria should be free to make her own mistakes. She knew it was hard for him to watch this, but it wasn’t his job to fix it. She hated that they were talking about Victoria on a day when they should be focused on the event. Billy thought Lily was implying he still had feelings for Victoria. Lily didn’t think he had feelings for Victoria; she just thought he was way too involved in Victoria’s life and that it went beyond co-parenting.

Billy said he and Victoria had a big history, and he couldn’t just cut ties. Lily countered that she had exes who didn’t cause trouble for their relationship. He pointed out that her exes didn’t live in Genoa City. She reminded him that Victoria might leave town. She wondered if that was his problem with this. He said no – his issue was that Victoria couldn’t let go of that monster. Lily snapped that she was done talking about this, so Billy needed to let it go. Billy didn’t want this to come between him and Lily. He said maybe she was right and this had just as much to do with him as it did with Victoria. If that was the case, he admitted he’d have to come to terms with that and let Victoria live her life. Lily appreciated Billy saying that. She knew that had to be hard for him. He loved her, and he knew she loved him too. He said he was a fool, but he’d be the world’s biggest fool if he didn’t listen to her.

Amanda and Imani were at Crimson Lights. After they finished a work discussion, Amanda asked who Imani was bringing as a date to the launch party. Amanda mentioned a couple of coworkers who she thought had shown an interest in Imani. Imani thought Amanda was being transparent about trying to get her to focus on anyone but Nate. Imani asked if Amanda was afraid she’d cast a spell on Elena’s boyfriend. They looked over and saw that Elena was there, across the room. Imani said it wasn’t like Elena had anything to worry about. Elena walked over and asked the sisters how their mom was. Amanda was happy to report Naya’s Afib was under control. Amanda said it looked like Elena had a long night saving lives. Elena confirmed it had been crazy at the hospital. Imani admired Elena for what she did, even though it probably didn’t give her any time for fun. Elena said she found time here and there, but she loved what she did, and the long hours were part of it. Imani imagined it was easier when Elena and Nate were going through it together. Amanda glared at her sister. Elena said Nate was happy in his new job, and she was happy for him. Imani was sure Nate would understand if Elena was too tired to attend the launch party. “You do look exhausted,” Imani added. “Thanks,” Elena replied. Elena said she’d be fine after she had a nap. Imani thought it was sweet that Elena was willing to sacrifice for Nate. Elena said that a party wasn’t a sacrifice; she looked forward to going. Elena left.

Amanda and Imani arrived at the Grand Phoenix. Amanda asked if the dig Imani took at Elena was necessary. Imani pointed out that Amanda was the one who said Elena looked like she had a long night. Imani said that if she were Elena, the last thing she’d want to do was put on high heels and a fake smile for her boyfriend, no matter how fine he was. Imani got a text from her date for tonight, Giancarlo from marketing. Amanda was pleased – this was one of the guys she’d thought was interested in Imani. Imani said Amanda could relax, because Elena had nothing to worry about.

Imani ended up with Nate, who was excited about tonight. Imani told Nate he should be proud of the work he’d done. Nate felt proud, but he worried tonight would be a missed opportunity. He told her how he wanted to make some announcements, but Devon wanted to focus on the big picture. Nate thought this was the time to show the world exactly what the merged company was going to do, and let the business world see how Chancellor Winters was going to innovate and disrupt. Nate told Imani how nobody else would take his side. Imani was supportive of Nate’s idea. From across the room, Amanda watched the pair with narrowed eyes. Later, Devon, Lily, Billy, Amanda, Nate and Imani were together. Billy told Lily and Devon that this was their moment. Devon and Lily said it was all of their moment. Nate stepped away to take a call. Billy told Lily he’d meet her at the office, but he had something to do first. Her face fell when he wouldn’t tell her where he was going. He kissed her cheek and left.

Elena went home and looked in the mirror and realized she really did look exhausted. She told herself it was because she actually worked instead of sitting around plotting and scheming. She got a phone call with disappointing news. When Nate came home, Elena told him that two doctors called in sick, so she had to work tonight. He asked if she could get anyone to cover. She tried, but she couldn’t. He understood. She really wanted to be there tonight and show everyone how proud she was of him. She said she ran into Amanda and Imani earlier and made a big deal about how excited she was to go, and now she wouldn’t even be there. She was sure Imani would be glad about that. Nate said that Imani was invested in the launch, so she’d be focused on work. He said he’d miss Elena like crazy tonight, but maybe once they were home, they could have their own private celebration. They kissed.

Across the hall, Devon and Amanda kissed in their penthouse. She was really proud of him and all he accomplished with Hamilton Winters and with this expanded family business. She knew Neil was smiling down on him and Lily as they built this amazing company. Devon said he and Amanda had come so far since they met – living together, working together and embarking on a new adventure together. Amanda couldn’t wait. Devon thought tonight would change everything. They kissed too.

Billy met Lily at the office. She was dressed for the party, and he felt like the luckiest man in the world. He told her how proud he was of her. She said she could do this job without him, but it would be a lot harder and a hell of a lot more boring. Billy’s errand was to buy a gift for Lily. It was an amethyst ring, which represented faithful love. She loved it, and she loved him. He said he loved her more than he could ever say, and he dind’t want anything to jeopardize what they had. He was letting go of the past and focus on the future with her. She thanked him for prioritizing their relationship. She knew it was a big step. He said tonight was about the realization of a vision – the future of a united family enterprises and of his future with her. He said tonight would change everything. They kissed.

At Society, Nikki felt just sick about Victoria. She wondered if there was anything they could’ve done to make Victoria realize she deserved a much better man. Victor told Nikki that she couldn’t keep beating herself up over this. She didn’t understand why Victoria would choose a relationship based completely on lies over her family. She acknowledged that Victoria didn’t make the best choices with men – she’d been involved with Billy, who had a gambling problem, but she walked away from him. Nikki didn’t understand why Victoria didn’t realize this was worse. Victor was perplexed too. Nikki felt like they were losing their daughter, and there was nothing they could do about it.

Victor wanted Nikki to stop blaming herself. Victor said he spoke to Ashland last night, and he said there was nothing Victor and Nikki could do to stop him and Victoria. Victor punched his fist into his palm and said he wished he could’ve wiped that smug smile off Ashland’s face, but he knew that would’ve been playing into Ashland’s hand. If he’d hit Ashland, he would’ve played the victim, and Victoria would’ve been more sympathetic to him. Ashland had said it was Victoria’s idea to leave town and that it was her family’s fault for pushing her away. Nikki didn’t believe that. Victor didn’t understand any of this. He felt they’d always encouraged Victoria, but she’d let them know in the past that she didn’t think they respected her enough.

Victor and Nikki continued to fret. Nikki said they couldn’t just let Victoria walk out of their lives, but Victor felt they had no choice but to let this play out. He said they’d have to let Victoria go, and Nikki looked like she was about to cry. Nikki said that even if Victoria realized she made a terrible mistake, she might be too proud to admit it. Nikki worried that Ashland would break Victoria’s spirit. “Have you forgotten how strong our daughter is?,” Victor asked. Nikki was concerned Victoria might never forgive the family. Victor thought Victoria would come to realize that the family only wanted the best for her and that they’d welcome her back with open arms. Victor had an idea to speed up Victoria’s decision to come back home. “There’s the Victor Newman I know and love,” Nikki said.

Victor talked about how much Victoria loved running Newman. He said he was going to make a splashy announcement that Adam would be the new CEO of Newman Enterprises. He would leave Nikki on as co-CEO, and she would have the power to rein Adam in as she saw fit. Nikki thought she should step down and become COO again, that way she could keep an eye on things without diluting the impact of Victor’s decision. “You’re thinking like a businesswoman, baby. I like that,” Victor said. Victor predicted that when Victoria found out her brother was running the business, it’d be too much for her to bear.

Victoria packed up her office. She glanced up at her portrait on the wall. She flashed back to Nikki saying that Victor commissioned it to replace the one that Ashland gave her – the one Victoria destroyed. Nikki said Ashland may have broken her heart but he didn’t destroy her spirit or strength of leadership, and that was what the new portrait represented. In the present, Nick walked in. Victoria told Nick that he wasn’t going to talk her out of leaving. He promised that wasn’t why he came.

Nick said he wouldn’t make the mistake of interfering again. He knew he had to accept that this was what she wanted and needed. He couldn’t stand the idea of her leaving town when there was so much distance and anger between them. He was afraid he’d never see his sister again. Nick said that Victoria had always been an important part of his life and she understood him the way no one else did. He understood that, since no one else knew what it was like to grow up as the child of the Great Victor Newman, with all the complications and obligations that went along with that. Victoria said Victor gave them everything he didn’t have as a child, but he put a lot of pressure on them. Nick said they were always fighting for Victor’s approval and competing to be the chosen one and win the ultimate prize – Newman Enterprises. Victoria said she and Nick competed well, sometimes together. He added that they ran Beauty of Nature. She said they ran Newman for a time. “We were the best team,” he said. He admitted they fought like hell sometimes, like every sibling did, but they always supported each other. He said he’d always be here for her. She asked if he was expecting her to say things hadn’t changed for her either. He was just trying to be honest, and he hoped she would be too.

Victoria was just tired of the constant judgments and attacks on everything she did. She wished he’d understand why she was doing this. Nick admitted he was worried Victoria was turning her back on everyone who loved her, and he was also worried Ashland would hurt her. Victoria told Nick that he didn’t know Ashland would hurt her. Nick hoped things worked out, but he was going to worry because of who Ashland was and all the games he’d played. Nick said he and Victoria had always shown up for each other and helped each other through the most terrible things you could imagine. That was what she wanted him to do now. Nick said he and Victoria always supported each other’s choices, good and bad, but he couldn’t say the same for the rest of the family. He noted that Nikki didn’t want him to marry Sharon, but Victoria knew how happy Sharon made him. Nick said Victoria had a lot of issues with Sharon, but she put that aside. Nick thought it was the same way with Billy – Victor hated him, but Nick knew this was Victoria’s choice to make. Victoria said she chose Ashland. She asked if Nick would support her. “Of course I will,” he assured her. He would never understand this decision, but he would always protect, support and defend her, because she was his sister, and he loved her.

What Nick said meant a lot to Victoria. She thanked him. She wished he could share this excitement with her. She was starting a new chapter on her own, away from the family. She just wished everyone understood she needed a little air to breathe, to chart her own path. She said she was starting a new life, in a way, and she wanted to share her news with him. He said she could call him whenever she wanted. They hugged.

Belle can’t believe EJ would casually say that Shawn’s baby might die and that would be a bright side to this as she pours herself a drink. EJ points out that Jan Spears having this baby is the reason that Belle and Shawn were separated. Belle stops him and asks what is wrong with him.

Shawn sits with Jan in the hospital as Jan worries about her stomach cramps. Shawn encourages that they are going to get her an IV to slow them down. Jan asks what if the baby comes today when it’s too soon.

Sarah goes to the hospital and asks Marlena if Kayla is on duty. Marlena responds that she thinks she might be in surgery. Sarah then cries that she needs help as she thinks the antidote is wearing off.

Lucas remains at the counter of the Pub, staring at the drink that Clyde left on the bar until Kate walks in and questions if he’s drinking. Lucas tells her that the drink is not his and that it belongs to Kate’s ex-boyfriend Clyde, who just left. Lucas swears he didn’t take a drink. Kate admits she saw Clyde leaving as she was coming in. Lucas complains about Kate not trusting him. Kate then takes the drink. Lucas tries to stop her by saying Clyde drank out of that glass but Kate says she needs the drink after just talking with Chad. Lucas asks what the big deal is. Kate reveals that Chad thought she should know that he told Abigail that Lucas is the one who kidnapped Sami. Lucas argues that she has to be kidding.

Abigail and Chad sit together in the town square. Abigail tells Chad about Gwen not being happy that she broke her mug and saying she would make her pay. Chad asks if Gwen said how she was going to do that. Abigail blows it off as Gwen just trying to scare her. Abigail tells Chad not to look so worried since Gwen is behind bars so there’s nothing she can do to her…

Gwen calls Leo from prison and says she needs to talk about Abigail. Gwen declares that if she doesn’t get to spend her father’s birthday with him, then neither does Abigail. Leo remains in the DiMera wine cellar and thinks she’s being a little dramatic. Gwen complains that she asked Abigail for one favor to get Jack the gift that she made for him for his birthday but Abigail smashed in to a million pieces. Gwen orders Leo to find the nearest, sharpest object and stab Abigail in the heart with it.

Marlena asks Sarah what makes her think the antidote is wearing off. Sarah tells her that she and Xander went to see Maggie to tell her that she got her memory back and that they were back together. Sarah states that while they were there, she had a hallucination of Kristen with a syringe and she thought she was coming after her but then she realized it was just Victor with a pen in his hand. Sarah says she didn’t let on because she didn’t want them to worry but admits she’s scared to death. Sarah asks Marlena if she knows what’s happening to her. Marlena encourages her not to panic. Sarah asks how to do that when she’s seeing things that aren’t there. Sarah asks if she’s losing her mind and what Gwen did to her.

Leo tells Gwen that this sounds a little extreme even for her. Gwen reminds him that their double wedding was supposed to be the day that changed their lives forever and then they got dumped by Xander and Craig. Gwen questions why they are always the ones that suffer while Abigail and Chad live their perfect lives together. Leo says he’s just as infuriated as she is. Gwen asks if he’s folding as she thought he wanted to inflict pain on all who hurt him. Leo brings up what he did to Chad and Sonny. Gwen blows that off as everyone knowing it was lies. Gwen declares that they need to hurt them the way that they hurt them. Leo says his phone is about to die. Gwen hopes so is Abigail. Leo then hangs up. Leo then picks up the knife from his breakfast tray and puts it in his bag.

Abigail tells Chad that Gwen will just sit around like she always does and it’s nothing new. Chad informs Abigail that he told Kate that Abigail knows Lucas kidnapped Sami. Chad admits that Kate was not pleased but he assured her that she would keep her mouth shut.

Lucas questions Kate as to why Chad told Abigail. Kate explains that he didn’t have a choice as Abigail got it in to her head that she wanted to solve the mystery and was planning to publish an article about it in the Spectator. Kate adds that Abigail already dug up Lucas’s friend Pete and was determined to go interview him in Wisconsin. Kate says that Chad couldn’t talk her out of it and was worried about what might happen if she went to investigate, so he thought the best way out of it was to tell her that it was her beloved uncle Lucas who kidnapped Sami. Kate admits that she can’t blame him. Lucas argues that he can blame him. Lucas asks what if they tell EJ or anyone else and worries that he would be screwed.

EJ reminds Belle that if Shawn told her immediately after he slept with Jan, that she would try to convince her to take the morning after pill. Belle argues that is not the same thing as that prevents pregnancy and doesn’t end one. Belle declares that this is a life and she does not and has never wished the baby dead, but it could die. Belle says she’s feeling sorry for herself while Shawn is probably freaking out at the hospital. Belle decides she has to go. EJ questions why she would do that. Belle responds that whether she likes it or not, this is Shawn’s baby and she would never forgive herself if she wasn’t there. Belle then rushes out of the DiMera Mansion.

Marlena encourages Sarah that she’s not losing her mind. Sarah asks why she thought she saw Kristen then. Sarah argues that the antidote is supposed to reverse the effects of Dr. Rolf’s drug. Marlena points out that it has set aside a lot of the damage she has been through but because of her dosage, there might be flare ups. Marlena knows Kayla has prescribed medication for her that helped Abigail, but the dosage may have to be increased. Sarah asks if these hallucinations are just something she’s going to have to live with for the rest of her life. Marlena hopes not but says it’s hard to give any guarantees. Marlena says they can adjust the dosage of her new medicine but she thinks they have reason to be optimistic. Marlena suggests Sarah talk to Abigail since she’s been through all of this. Sarah agrees that is a great idea and thanks Marlena for talking her down. Sarah then walks away as Belle arrives at the hospital. Marlena greets her and asks what she’s doing here. Belle informs her that she was with Shawn when she called to say Jan is in labor. Marlena confirms that Jan was admitted a little while ago. Belle argues that Jan can’t have the baby now since it’s so soon. Marlena agrees that it’s soon and they have given her medication to hopefully stop the contractions. Shawn then comes out and announces that Jan just passed out, so Marlena rushes to the room with Shawn.

EJ talks to the portrait of Stefano, saying he was too direct with Belle just now as he thought he was comforting her, but she left deeply offended. EJ supposes he should find a way to make this right as he finishes a drink. EJ then walks out of the living room. Leo then emerges from the tunnels and remarks that he thought EJ would never shut up and leave. Leo says it seems like everyone around here uses Stefano as a sounding board. Leo asks Stefano what he should do about Abigail or to Abigail.

Chad agrees with Abigail that Kate and Lucas have nothing to worry about. Chad thanks Abigail for agreeing not to say anything and apologizes for putting her in that position as he never wants to ask her to lie, especially to her own family. Abigail points out that Lucas is her mom’s half brother while she’s not related to Sami, unlike he and EJ. Chad states that keeping secrets from each other is part of his family’s favorite pastime but keeping secrets from his wife is not something he will ever do again. Abigail assures that there’s nothing he can’t tell her as she will always be on his side and she loves him. Abigail informs Chad that she is ovulating, so Chad suggests they get out of here.

Shawn comes back out and informs Belle that Jan has been rushed to the operating room as she had a placental abruption. Belle knows a woman in her office who had that and that woman lost the baby. Belle tells Shawn that she’s sorry and asks what Marlena said. Shawn says she agreed to stay with Jan since they wouldn’t let him go with her. Shawn worries that they were all so serious and he has no idea what’s going to happen to Jan or the baby.

Kate encourages Lucas that Chad gave her his word that Abigail is not going to say anything. Lucas questions her buying that. Kate insists that Abigail won’t send her own uncle to prison. Lucas points out that she sent her own sister there. Kate argues that he knows that’s completely different. Kate says that Abigail hates Gwen and loves Lucas, so she would understand he was desperate to keep Sami from going back to EJ. Kate admits that Lucas did a boneheaded thing but Abigail won’t send him to jail just because she feels like it when she’s a good person. Lucas worries about Abigail being an editor at a newspaper and she was working on Sami’s kidnapping story, so what happens if she decides to run the story anyway. Kate thinks it would solve all of Lucas’s problems if he just told Sami the truth. Lucas mocks the idea of that working out great for him. Kate argues that he doesn’t know and brings up how many times over the years that they have forgiven each other for doing horrible things. Kate asks why wouldn’t Sami eventually understand and forgive him. Kate adds that if Lucas is thinking of marrying Sami, he can’t live with this secret between them.

Sarah goes to see Gwen in prison. Gwen questions what she’s doing here. Sarah responds that they haven’t been properly introduced so she introduces herself and brings up Gwen borrowing her face to break up with Xander as her, so it must be like looking into a mirror.

Leo sneaks in to Chad and Abigail’s bed room. He then hears them coming so he runs to hide in the closet. Chad and Abigail enter the room and start kissing.

Gwen tells Sarah that she doesn’t want to get in to this now. Sarah says that’s too bad. Sarah complains that Gwen knew Kristen was holding her prisoner on that island and she left her there, stranded. Sarah adds that she would probably still be there if not for Abigail. Gwen blames Abigail for Sarah ever being sent to that island. Sarah asks how it’s Abigail’s fault. Gwen brings up the syringe and how Kristen never would’ve gotten it if Abigail hadn’t left it in the DiMera secret room where she was planning to use it on her. Sarah mocks the idea that Gwen’s the victim in all of this. Gwen argues that she didn’t kidnap Sarah, so she tells her to go find Kristen and tell her all of her troubles. Sarah says she plans to but thought she would start with Gwen first. Sarah talks about Xander getting her the antidote and how that didn’t work for Gwen, so she made sure she got a double dose of the crazy drug. Gwen argues that Sarah got the antidote and is now good as new. Gwen asks why Sarah is here bothering her.

Chad and Abigail lay in bed after having sex. Chad wonders if this is the day they made a baby. Abigail jokes that if they didn’t, it wasn’t for lack of trying, but she feels like they did which excites Chad. Abigail asks if Chad is hoping for another girl or another boy. Chad says twins. Abigail jokes that they would be seriously outnumbered. Chad says Thomas and Charlotte are old enough to help out. Abigail asks what Chad thinks about taking a little trip with the kids tonight since tomorrow is Jack’s birthday, so they could all fly to Boston together. Chad calls that a great idea but notes that it seems pretty sudden. Chad asks if they can leave in the morning which Abigail agrees to, asking what difference one night would make as they kiss.

Shawn asks what Belle was doing at the hospital anyway. Belle responds that she was worried about the baby and Shawn as he must be scared. Shawn admits that he is. Shawn calls it the baby he never wanted to happen but then he started thinking about whether it was going to be a boy or a girl and taking care of a new baby. Belle encourages that Jan has the best doctors and care here. Shawn brings up that the baby might be deprived of oxygen and nourishment so it’s going to be touch and go. Belle hugs Shawn and encourages him to keep believing the baby will be okay. EJ arrives and sees them. Shawn wonders how long it will be before he knows something. Belle declares that no matter how long it takes, she will be there for him.

Lucas tells Kate that he’s not going to tell Sami the truth and argues that if she found out that he held her against her will for months, she’ll send him to prison and then go back to EJ so fast. Kate says she gets it and she doesn’t want the information to come out either. Kate worries that Roman would never forgive her either if he found out she kept the information from him. Lucas knows holding a grudge is in the Brady DNA. Kate says it’s fine to not tell Sami, she just hates seeing this eat away at him. Lucas feels he has no choice. Kate suggests they meet back at the Pub for dinner tonight. Kate jokes that she will annoy him so much that he’ll forget all about Abigail. Lucas agrees to meet her later.

Chad gets dressed as their kids Thomas and Charlotte enter their room. Abigail asks what they think about a trip to Boston to surprise Jack for his birthday. Charlotte asks if they can take the DiMera Jet which Chad agrees to. Thomas asks about the Tooth Fairy and says it’s a he. Thomas asks what about Minions which Abigail questions. Chad explains that DiMera is doing a special screening of the new Minions movie and he said they could go. Abigail asks what time the screening is. Chad says it’s in like an hour so they can still make it. Thomas asks if Abigail can come too. Abigail says she’d love to but she still has to approve a layout for the paper and her assistant is going to send it to her in one hour. Charlotte questions her not going to the movie. Chad asks if it’s okay if he takes them which the kids agree to. Abigail hugs her kids and sends them to go change clothes. Abigail jokes with Chad about it being that easy to make the kids happy.

Sarah questions Gwen asking why she is bothering her and if she really has to spell it out. Gwen complains that Sarah got what she wanted. Sarah informs her that she had to relive the death of her baby and asks if she has any idea what that’s like. Gwen responds that she actually does. Sarah tells her to try doing it twice. Sarah confirms she got her memory back but she’s still having hallucinations. Sarah calls Gwen miserable. Gwen complains that she’s paying for it now as she’s stuck in prison and has lost everything from her family to her freedom to Xander. Sarah says she did it all to herself. Sarah declares that she and Xander are back together. Gwen blames that on Abigail stopping the wedding. Gwen argues that Xander loved her and they were going to get married. Sarah assures they sorted all that out and are now very happy. Sarah tells Gwen to think about that as she is taken back to her cell. Sarah then exits.

EJ approaches Shawn and Belle. Shawn questions what he’s doing here. EJ says he wanted to inquire about the baby. Shawn argues that he couldn’t care less about his baby. EJ understands how worried he must be. Shawn says EJ is the last thing he wants to deal with and tells him to get the hell out. Marlena comes back so Shawn asks what happened in the OR. Marlena confirms that they stopped the bleeding and Jan will be fine, but they had to deliver the baby. Marlena announces the baby is small, but alive, and that Shawn has a son. Marlena explains that the baby was rushed him to the NICU and will be there for quite awhile. Shawn asks if he can see him but Marlena says they are still evaluating him. Shawn asks about Jan. Marlena says she was taken back to her room. Shawn decides he should probably be there when Jan wakes up. Shawn thanks Belle for staying with him as he then heads to Jan’s room. Marlena decides to go check on more information on the baby and walks away. EJ tells Belle that it must have been a lot to take in and wishes she would say something. Belle asks EJ to just get her out of here. EJ asks where she’d like to go. Belle has tears in her eyes as she says anywhere and then leaves the hospital with EJ.

Gwen notices the prison guard has fallen asleep. She sneaks back to the phone and makes a call, saying she needs their help.

Chad and Abigail talk about being lucky to have great kids as they kiss. Chad asks Abigail what the whole Tooth Fairy thing was about. Abigail says she will tell him when he gets back. Abigail tells Chad that she loves him. Chad says he loves her and then exits the room.

Lucas remains at the Pub with a drink in front of him on the table. Lucas says to himself that for all he knows, Abigail could be writing that story right now. Lucas adds that Will, Allie, and Sami will hate him and he might be headed for prison. Lucas then gets up and goes behind the bar . Lucas grabs a bottle of alcohol and sneaks out of the Pub with it.
