Update written by Dustin

Curtis wanted to know why Sonny didn’t help him investigate his father. Sonny remembered seeing Marshall drop a bottle of his medication and said the past should stay in the past. He hoped that everything worked out for Curtis and his father. Curtis told him that Marshall left town. Sonny was willing to have his guys track Marshall down. He told him not to give up if there’s a chance they could reconcile.  He told Curtis that he had two very strong willed men as sons and they often didn’t see eye to eye. 

Sasha is blindsided at a Deception celebration. A sleazy photographer bursts into the restaurant where Gladys, Sasha, Maxie, Brooke Lynn and Lucy are having drinks. He begins taking pictures of Sasha and refuses to relent even after Lucy threatens to call security.  Eventually, Austin arrives and intervenes. While Austin is dealing with the photographer, Gladys slips the memory card that contains the photos, out of the camera. 

TJ gets an unexpected gift that arrives in an unmarked box.  He is not able to discern who or where it is from. He opens it and realizes that Marshall has gifted him his clarinet as a parting gift and tells him he wishes to leave him the gift of music and reminds him of their conversation when T.J. said that working on a surgical team was a lot like being part of an orchestra. 

Nina shares her concerns with Brando.  Nina believes that Sasha is really shaken up by what happened at Charlie’s a few nights back. Sasha expressed to Nina that Brando rushed to Sonny’s aid without giving thought to the consequences.  Sasha tells Nina that she has already lost Liam, she can’t lose Brando as well.

Portia and Drew met at The Savoy to talk about Marshall leaving town. Drew blamed himself for Marshall leaving. Drew tells her about the fake job offer so he could do a background check on Marshall. He said Marshall was upset about it. She didn’t think that was enough to make him leave. Drew thought Curtis might have found something out about him. She wished Curtis would have let her help him. Drew told her that Marshall’s past was dangerous. He said it was better that she didn’t know. 

Gladys and Sasha are pursued by the photographer as Sasha is driving them home.  The photographer wants the memory card for the photos he took. He is right behind them and driving erratically, so Sasha increases her speed to try to lose him.

Alexis wanted to know how many people had to die for Harmony to keep her secret about Willow. Harmony says, “as many as it takes.” She strangles Alexis. Alexis pushes her away. Harmony grabbed a rock to bash her in the head. But, Carly appeared and pushed Harmony away. Alexis called the police while Carly held off Harmony. Harmony eventually managed to get away from Carly. Carly tells Alexis that they have to stop her. Alexis assures her that the police were on their way. Carly was afraid that Harmony was going after Willow and Wiley. 

Rory showed up to question Carly and Alexis. They told him everything about Harmony, all the murders she had committed, the stolen therapy notes, her psychiatric file. But, Carly said that it was all a waste of time. She said if Harmony reached the highway, she would escape. Harmony was in the woods and looked at a picture of Willow and Wiley. They were all she had left. She refused to lose them. She ran out into the road and was caught in the headlights of Sasha’s car.  Gladys told Sasha to watch out for the person that appeared in the road.  Harmony screams while Sasha swerves to avoid striking Harmony.

Update written by Joseph

Chanel wakes up with a hangover, wondering what she did last night. Chanel then remembers kissing Tripp. Tripp then shows up at her door with a coffee. Chanel informs him that she was just thinking about him.

Devil Allie has Ben and Johnny chained up in the DiMera Crypt, creating a note from Ben. The Devil warns Johnny to worry about what’s going on with Chanel and Tripp because it looks like they had a rocking time last night, so it sucks to be him. Devil Allie then exits the crypt. Johnny calls out to Ben to wake him up. Ben freaks out realizing he is chained to the wall, questioning what’s going on and where he is.

Ciara wakes up and goes looking for Ben around their apartment. She sees the mug on the table and thinks back to the tea that Allie gave her and then she went straight to bed. Ciara then sees two other mugs next to it.

Shawn asks what Jan wants him to do. Jan argues that he’s an officer of the law so he can pull some strings or call in a favor to get her released. Shawn argues that they won’t let a nutjob with her record out of prison just because she’s pregnant. Jan argues that they are options other than letting her free, like house arrest. Shawn asks whose house, so Jan suggests his. Shawn says she cannot be serious but Jan assures that she is and she wants him to take her home with him.

Eric comes out of the Brady Pub and runs in to Belle. Belle hugs him and mentions that Marlena told her that he was in town. Belle says she’s excited and it’s good to see him. Eric says the same and mentions that Nicole is having breakfast with Rafe inside as they are together now. Belle mentions that she knew and guesses that’s why Eric is outside which he admits. Belle is glad to spend more time with him. Eric apologizes for not being there for her before when she was possessed.

Shawn tells Jan that this is not a simple request since she committed some serious crimes and tried to kill people. Shawn asks if she really thinks a sane judge is going to release her out in to the world to do more damage. Jan argues that she wouldn’t be released out in to the world, but in to the custody of her baby daddy. Shawn tells her not to call him that. Jan insists that if everyone knows she’s living with him, they will know that he’s taking extra special care of her and their baby. Jan argues that Shawn is a detective and was police commissioner, so if anyone can guarantee that she won’t be a danger to the public, it’s him. Shawn tells her it’s not going to happen as she is exactly where she belongs. Jan reminds him that the doctor said she needs to be on total bed rest. Shawn tells her to stay in bed then. Jan asks how that’s possible when every prisoner has to be up by six, in the cafeteria by seven, and back to their cells by eight. Shawn is sure they will make accommodations for her. Shawn offers to talk to the warden about her staying in the infirmary until the baby is born. Jan complains about the amount of diseases flying around the prison and admits she’s not exactly everyone’s favorite prisoner so she doesn’t trust these creeps to take care of her baby. Jan worries that she will end up back in her cell and asks if Shawn really wants to take that kind of a chance with his child’s life.

Belle tells Eric that it all happened really fast and is kind of still a blur, so she’s just grateful that John knew what to do. Belle mentions that she did a lot of terrible things like trying to break up Chad and Abigail plus Gabi and Jake. Eric assures that she is not responsible for any of that. Belle feels that she is but finds it strange that she doesn’t remember doing any of it. Belle says one minute she was at the DiMera Mansion talking to Johnny and then she was upstairs, tied to a bed, and everyone told her she had been possessed. Eric brings up that Marlena said after she was possessed, she had gaps in her memory. Belle says that’s what is strange because she didn’t lose any time at all.

Tripp and Chanel complain about their hangovers. Tripp presents Chanel with an electrolyte replacement drink as a hangover cure. Chanel is hesitant but Tripp insists that she drink it and it will help her forget last night ever happened.

Johnny explains to Ben that Allie is now possessed by the Devil and that Jake was right that Johnny was possessed since Christmas. Johnny adds that he doesn’t remember anything from Marlena’s exorcism until the Devil left him. Ben asks how the hell he got free. Johnny informs him that Allie saved him as she was talking to him, trying to reach out and telling him to fight the Devil so he did and he was winning, but then the Devil must have jumped from him in to his sister. Ben questions what the Devil would want with Allie. Johnny responds that he doesn’t think the Devil is interested in Allie at all as he thinks he wants what he always wanted. Ben realizes that’s Ciara and their baby.

Ciara questions the other tea mugs and wonders why she can’t remember if they were there last night. Allie then shows up at her door and says she brought breakfast, figuring her and Ben would still be tired. Ciara thanks her but notes that Ben is not here and she doesn’t know where he is as he wasn’t there when she woke up. Allie calls that weird. Ciara last remembers Ben taking her to bed after they drank tea. Ciara asks if Allie knows what happened after that. Allie recalls Ben putting Ciara to bed and then they had some tea while they talked about parenting and then she headed out soon after. Ciara calls it weird as she doesn’t remember Ben coming to bed. Allie notes that she was very tired but Ciara says she always wakes up when Ben comes to bed and gets out of bed. Ciara decides to call Ben but it goes straight to voicemail.

Ben tries to break his chains but Johnny warns that he’s going to hurt himself. Ben says he has to get to Ciara. Johnny says he’s tried but the chains are unbreakable. Ben complains about the Devil being after the woman he loves and his baby. Johnny complains that before that, the Devil went after the woman he loves and used him to do that. Ben asks if he’s talking about how he dumped her at a party. Johnny insists it wasn’t him, it was the Devil, and he wanted to make it stick so he called her and taunted her about it and now she hates him. Johnny understands he hurt Chanel in the worst way possible and now she’s off with Tripp. Ben asks how he knows that. Johnny explains that Devil Allie gave him his own private screening of Chanel and Tripp drinking together at the bar. Ben guesses Chanel was drowning her sorrows. Johnny assures that they did a lot more than that and could have even spent the night together.

Tripp informs Chanel that he came to apologize for last night. Chanel asks why and what he did. Tripp says he got drunk, kissed her, and took her home hoping to get her in bed. Chanel reminds him that she was drunk too and is pretty sure she was down to party. Chanel recalls that she led the idea and thinks they only didn’t go through with it because her mom stopped them. Tripp admits he’s kind of glad that she did because if they had gone through with it, they’d be doing it for all the wrong reasons like revenge. Tripp adds that he’s not even sure Johnny and Allie would care.

Eric questions Belle not remembering any of the things she did while possessed. Belle confirms that she only knows what people told her but she doesn’t feel like she lost her memory. Eric doesn’t understand. Belle talks about not having the same experience that Marlena described. Eric wonders if maybe the Devil didn’t have control yet. Belle says he would have had to in order to morph in to EJ or Jake. Belle adds that she never realized she was missing time. Eric wonders if the Devil was making her unaware it was happening and says all that matters is that she’s safe now. Eric hopes that she can put that chapter behind her and move on with her life. Belle wishes she could pretend none of this happened and just move on, but the Devil did so much damage and hurt so many people that it can’t be forgotten or repaired that easily, especially the relationships he wrecked and none more than her own marriage.

Jan tells Shawn that she’s not delusional as she knows how he feels about her, but she can live with that. Jan says no matter how much Shawn dislikes her, he would never take that out on an innocent child, especially not his own because that’s not who he is. Jan calls Shawn a good man and says that’s why she knows he would never want any harm to come to the child. Jan says being a mother made something in her switch because for the first time in her life, somebody is depending on her so she feels like she has purpose and she wants to do everything she can to protect the baby. Jan declares that if something happened in prison, she couldn’t live with that and asks if Shawn could. Jan asks Shawn to talk to the warden for their baby.

Eric tells Belle that Marlena told her about Shawn and Jan. Belle tells Eric that she’s staying with Marlena and John but Shawn wants her to go home. Belle admits she thought about it but they started discussing it and Jan called, so she left. Belle is sure Shawn went to the prison to talk to Jan. Belle thinks Eric will say that it’s Shawn’s baby so she should accept it because she loves him. Eric clarifies that he was going to say if Shawn has to be there for Jan because of the baby, it’s not because he loves her. Belle assures that she knows that but Jan being the mother of his child means Jan will be in their lives forever. Belle asks how to deal with that and how a marriage survives that.

Ben informs Johnny that Allie was in their apartment last night and brought over some tea. Ben recalls putting Ciara in bed and realizes that Allie drugged them both. Johnny confirms Ben was pretty out of it when Allie brought him in. Ben worries that Ciara must have woken up this morning wondering where she could have gone.

Ciara leaves a message for Ben to call her back when he gets it. Allie suggests he must just be busy. Ciara hopes so and decides she’s going to check the garage. Ciara thanks Allie for stopping by. Allie then pulls out the note that the Devil made and claims it must have fallen on the floor. She reads it to Ciara, saying it’s from Ben and that he woke up early and didn’t want to wake her and to have a good time with Allie. Ciara questions how Ben knew Allie would be there. Allie claims she told Ben last night that she would check on her. Allie then remembers that she has something else for her. Ciara says she didn’t have to bring her anything. Allie gives her a baby tuxedo that was Henry’s and mentions having a lot of clothes that he has outgrown, plus toys and bottles that she can have. Ciara calls that very thoughtful of her. Allie guesses she should’ve asked first and worries that she made it awkward but Ciara reassures her. Allie talks about her pregnancy being overwhelming and how she didn’t want to be a mom at first. Allie says seeing Ciara and Ben’s joy lets her see what she missed out on so she just wants to be part of it. Ciara tells Allie that she loves that she wants to be a part of it and they will be grateful for her to join them on this journey as they hug.

Chanel tells Tripp that she is the one who should be apologizing to him for stealing his girlfriend. Chanel says she was supposed to be his friend and broke the bro code. Chanel says regardless of how she felt about Allie, she was his girlfriend and she’s sorry for the way it happened. Chanel talks about how she was hurting because of what Johnny did to her and she’s ashamed that she wasn’t thinking about how hurt Tripp would be. Chanel says she knows now that was so wrong and she’s really sorry. Tripp says at the end of the day, Allie is the one who cheated on him. Tripp thanks Chanel for saying that though and says it means a lot.

Belle tells Eric that everyone keeps telling her that it’s not Shawn’s fault that he betrayed her but he lied to her for months and kept it from her. Eric says she has every right to be angry but says there’s no looking back. Eric wishes he had been more forgiving with Nicole instead of judging her so harshly as it caused him to lose her and his marriage which he doesn’t want to happen to Belle. Belle doesn’t want to lose Shawn but she doesn’t know if she’s ready to go home. Eric tells her that she can’t avoid him forever. Belle asks how to know when she’s ready. Eric tells her that she can’t find the answers by avoiding her husband, so the only way to make it through this mess is to go home and work this out together. Eric hugs Belle.

Shawn informs Jan that he just spoke to the warden and he’s not thrilled about letting a dangerous prisoner back in to the world. Jan asks if she’s really dangerous anymore. Shawn says that ultimately this would be left up to the judge who sentenced her but apparently they have extreme overcrowding. Shawn reveals that if she were to be released in to his custody, it would be solving the warden’s problem. Shawn says he guaranteed that he would be responsible for her. Jan asks if that means yes. Shawn confirms that the judge signed off so it is a yes as Jan excitedly hugs him. Shawn puts an ankle monitor on Jan and warns her that if she tries to leave the house without permission, she will be swarmed by unfriendly cops. Jan remarks that she just hopes Belle will be okay with this. Shawn informs her that she won’t have to worry about Belle because she’s staying at her mom’s. Jan asks if she moved out. Shawn says for now and confirms it’s because of her. Jan apologizes and says she knows it’s her fault and that Shawn feels guilty for not telling Belle they slept together. Shawn declares that he needs to hold himself accountable for his actions. Jan insists that she is sorry. Shawn tells her to stop pretending she cares about his marriage. Jan says she cares about him and bringing the baby in to a warm, loving environment. Jan declares that for now it will just be the three of them.

Belle agrees with Eric that she won’t solve any of her problems by running from them, so she will go get her stuff from Marlena’s. Eric tells her that he’s here for her, whatever she needs. Belle thanks him and says he always knows what to say. Belle adds that if Eric doesn’t want to deal with Nicole and Rafe, he can come help her. Eric says he will take his own advice as he and Nicole are divorced so she moved on with her life and he needs to move on with his.

Allie gives Ciara more baby clothes and talks about all the gifts the baby will get. Allie offers to help Ciara with a registry. Ciara says she’s still really worried about Ben, so she’s going to the gargage to check on him. Allie reminds her that she saw the note. Ciara knows it seems silly but she feels like she really needs to see Ben. Ciara thanks Allie for everything and goes to her room. The Devil remarks that Ciara is stubborn and won’t rest until she finds Ben, so he’ll have to do something a little more drastic.

Ben asks Johnny what if Ciara thinks he just left her and the baby because of the Devil. Ben argues that they have to do something because the Devil is after his wife and baby. Johnny says he’s sorry but he’s tried everything. Ben brings up the Crypt being on Johnny’s family property and asks if anybody ever comes back here. Johnny says sometimes they pay respects to dead relatives. Ben asks how often and when he last came in. Johnny says he came last Halloween to scout locations for his movie and it turned out that John was locked up here but he didn’t find him because the Devil stopped him. Johnny mentions hearing voices the other day and trying to yell for help but nobody heard him. Ben tries screaming for help but Johnny says he’s wasting his time. Ben asks if he has a better idea, so they try screaming together.

Shawn sets up at home when Belle comes in with her bag, surprising him. Belle tells him that she’s been thinking about everything, so she wanted to come home. Jan then comes in and says she knows she should be resting. Jan then says what a surprise to seeing Belle. Belle responds that she could say the same thing and questions what the hell Jan is doing here. Jan reveals that she’s moving in, shocking Belle.

Chanel tells Tripp that she feels cured of her hangover and now she’s hungry. Tripp says he is too so they exit together.

Ciara goes to the Brady Pub and is surprised to see Eric. They hug and talk about how good it is to see each other. Ciara says she was looking for Clyde, hoping he could tell her where Ben is. Eric asks if something is wrong. Ciara hopes not but says she woke up this morning and Ben was gone with a note that he was at work but she just drove by the garage and he was nowhere to be found.

Devil Allie goes to prison to visit Evan Frears aka Christian Maddox, the son of Orpheus, who held Ciara prisoner last year. Allie claims to be a big fan of his work. Christian asks who the hell she is. She responds that she’s his new best friend because she’s about to offer him a chance at revenge on Ben Weston. He tells her that she has his attention. She says they have so much to talk about.

Ben and Johnny continue screaming for help. Ben argues that sooner or later someone will walk by but Johnny says it’s no use. They then hear noise outside. Johnny declares that someone is outside so they are saved as someone then breaks open the door.

Devil Allie tells Christian that she is going to call him Evan because she’s not a fan of Christian. She says they have a lot in common such as being bisexual. He tells her to get to the part where she helps him get revenge on Ben. She says that’s the other thing they have in common, hating Ben. Evan declares Ben is the reason he lost everything and the reason he’s in here. Allie talks about Ben ruining Evan’s plans by rescuing Ciara, otherwise he’d be out living his best life but instead he’s in here while Ben and Ciara are happily married. She declares that now Ben is getting in her way and she just can’t have that, so that’s where he comes in.

[ Steffy sobbing ]

Steffy: Finn… finn, he’s– he’s gone? I don’t–

[ Stammering ] But why? How?

Thomas: Nobody knows yet, sis.

Steffy: He’s dead? Someone shot and killed my husband?

[ Steffy sobbing ]

Brooke: I wonder how it’s going. Telling steffy–

Hope: It’s going to be painful. They’re trying to help her remember finn and the life they shared.

Brooke: It seems cruel, yes. But there’s no way we could have let her go on believing that she and liam were still together.

Brooke: This must be very difficult for them, having to break this news to her. I just feel for ridge. This must be killing him, seeing his daughter in pain like that. I just wish there was something I could do. I wish I could… be there for him.

Hope: Mom… by being here, you’re helping him. And I know that he appreciates it.

Bridget: Yeah, of course he does. Don’t give up on ridge. You two will always work things out. You always have.

Brooke: Until maybe we don’T.

>>Taylor: Sweetheart–

[ Steffy sobbing ]

>>Ridge: I’m so sorry.

[Steffy sobbing]

Steffy: How… how could I forget finn? And now he’s gone.

[ Steffy sobbing ]

[ Steffy sobbing ] I thought– I thought we were together.

Liam: I know. I know. But I’m still here for you. And I always will be.

Sheila: I will be, too. I will steffy, if you let me. I know you probably don’t want me anywhere… around. I’m– I’m assuming that you at least remember that. Finn was my son. And knowing that he’s– knowing that I’m nev– I’m sorry. Just it’s painful knowing that he’s gone.

[ Steffy sobbing ] No matter who you are,

Brooke: Oh gosh, I feel bad talking about my problems with ridge, while steffy’s lying in a hospital bed recovering from a gunshot. She lost her husband. I mean, I’m being so selfish.

Hope: Okay, mom. Stop right there. Those are two completely separate issues. You weren’t selfish for wanting your marriage to survive.

Bridget: Mom, you two are far from over.

Steffy: Sheila. I remember. I remember you’re finn’s mother. You gave birth to him.

Sheila: Yes. Yes, I did.

Steffy: I’m sorry. I know you’re hurting. You just got to know him and now he’S… he’s gone.

Shelia: That’s something I don’t– I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to accept. I don’t– I don’t know if I’ll ever understand it. How could this have happened? It was my last chance to be part of a– a family. To be accepted. And now– I’m sorry for you… too, steffy. And hayes. ‘Cause that precious little boy is going to grow up with no memory… of his father. You have no idea how devastating that is for me. He should– he should be here for years, for– for all of us. None of this should have happened. None of it.

Taylor: It was a senseless act. One we will be reeling from, for a long time to come. But we’ll be here for one another… and we’ll grieve together. Hayes may never know his father. But he’ll know of him… through pictures and stories.

Shelia: I hope so.

Taylor: I know so. And he’ll not be forgotten.

Ridge: We’re not going to forget that someone is responsible. We’re going to find them. We’re going to put them away. Promise you.

Sheila: Yeah, that’s what we all want. I’m going to– I’m going to leave. I’ve taken up enough of your… family moment. But you know what? You could have told me to leave. That I didn’t belong. That I was never finn’s mother. You chose kindness. That coming from you, steffy, that– that little bit of understanding when I know that you’re going through so much pain and grief of your own. It means a lot. So, thank you. You’ll never know how sorry I am. How terribly sorry I am always going to be. I’m amber, I’ve lost 128 pounds with golo,

Bridget: Hey, everyone. I’m just checking on steffy. How is she?

Thomas: Well, we explained… about finn.

Ridge: And she’s starting to remember. So that’s good, right?

Bridget: Very good. Hey, honey. I’m so, so sorry.

Steffy: Thanks.

Bridget: When you say starting to remember, do–

Taylor: Just finn, hayes.

Bridget: Okay.

Steffy: My son. I want to see him.

Taylor: Steffy, maybe we should wait until–

Steffy: Please. I so want to hold him.

Taylor: I understand. Okay baby. We’ll get him.

Bridget: Right now, you just need to rest. Okay, honey, you’ve been through so, so much.

Steffy: I am tired.

Bridget: I think maybe just one or two more minutes.

Ridge: Yeah.

Bridget. Okay.

>>Ridge: That’s fine.

Thomas: Uh, hey sis, uh, hang in there. We’re going to make it through this.

Steffy: My son. Please.

Taylor: I know. We will– we will get him. And you will hold your son again soon.

Liam: We’re all here for you. And we’re going to do whatever we can to help you heal.

Brooke: Do you think we should have gone in too? Steffy’s going to need all the support she can get.

Hope: No. We shouldn’t overwhelm her or liam. They’re dealing with enough stress, as it is.

Brooke: Understandably. Steffy is kelly’s mother.

Hope: Oh, believe me, I get it. I would be freaking out if I were liam. He’s always going to care about her and– it’s what I love about him. He’s going to help her through this. Liam!

Liam: Hey.

Hope: Hey. How’d it go?

Liam: Oh.

Brooke: Does steffy know about finn?

Liam: Yes. Yes. But at first, she was just confused. Like, just struggling to even understand anything we were saying to her. But then– then the memories started coming back and– and you could see the look on her face change. And it was just– it was horrible. I– her realizing that… the husband that she was only now finally starting to remember, is gone. It…

Ridge: You okay?

Taylor: I just want steffy to get better. Focus on her health. Now she’s got this enormous grief to face.

Bridget: Taylor, I’m sorry I didn’t discuss it with you beforehand. I should have. But it… was something you were going to have to face eventually, anyway. And I think she’s really ready.

Thomas: She must be. Once we told her about finn, she started to get her memory back.

Ridge: And maybe that means she’ll get the rest of her memory back as well.

Bridget: Oh, well she’s remembering finn and hayes. I think it’s imminent.

Taylor: I agree. It shouldn’t be too much longer. She’ll be able to tell us about who did this.

Bridget: Yes.

>>Nurse: Excuse me, dr. Forrester. Steffy’s due for another round of pain meds, but her chart says to check with you.

Bridget: Oh, uh, yes. Well, she’s sleeping right now. So, if she wakes up, and she’s uncomfortable, we’ll stay ahead of the pain. But I know steffy doesn’t want to go down the road of addiction again. We’re always cautious, but we’re even more so, in this case.

Nurse: Of course. Thanks.

Ridge: It worries me.

Thomas: Yeah.

Bridget: She’s in good hands. We’re watching her very closely. Are you tired of washing dishes?

Ridge: Not something i thought I’d have to do. Tell my daughter her husband’s gone.

Brooke: I feel sorry for steffy. And for you, too. Ridge, I just want to be here and hold you and support you. Love you, as a wife should.

Ridge: Logan, look, I–

Brooke: It’s hard for me, to see you from afar. To see how much pain you’re in. I feel as your wife, I should be there as an anchor. And that’s kind of difficult because we don’t live together right now. We’ve helped each other through worse times. This shouldn’t be any different. I just want you to know that you can lean on me. I wish you could. I want to be there as your wife. And I want us to be there for each other. So please, just come home. Come home to me, please.

Liam: Yeah. I’ve been so– just– just, uh… worried. Or whatever.

Hope: I know.

Liam: And not even just– not about steffy. I mean, steffy, too, but like kelly, and hayes. And oh, my god, like, what would have happened if steffy didn’t pull through? You know, like, thank god that didn’t happen. I’m still worried. It’s like, you know, kelly and hayes now their– their lives– they’re just to be so radically different, you know, with– with– with finn gone and their mother now grieving in the hospital. And all these– it’s just– it’s a lot. It’s a lot. And I– I’ll step up. That’s it. That’s it. I’ll just, I’ll step up. Like–

Hope: Hey.

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: You always do. Liam, I admire your strength. I do. But, you know, you don’t have to do it all by yourself. You got me.

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: You got me, and I’ll help with steffy and the kids. And we’ll do this together, like we always do.

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: And also, don’t forget that steffy has an amazing support system outside of us. She’s got her family, and we know that they’ll pitch in.

Liam: Yeah. Yes. Yes, you’re right. I just– I don’t know, it’s just– I’m kelly’s father, you know? So I just feel like I have to do my part because it’s– it’s really– it’s my job. It’s my job to be there.

Hope: Hey… yes, it is. But now you can also breathe. Because the worst part is over.

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: She’s awake.

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: She’s recovering.

Liam: Yeah.

Hope: While that is going to be a difficult road– hey. Steffy survived. So, whoever wanted to end her life didn’t succeed.

Sheila: I’m running out of time, aren’t I? You’re already remembering finn, hayes. How much longer until you remember what happened in the alley? Imminent. Bridget said imminent. And the next time you open your eyes, you might be telling everyone what I did. I– I can’t let you do that, steffy. I can’T. I can’t let you send me back to prison.

Bridget: I know steffy doesn’t want to risk facing addiction again. And yes, we’re always cautious, but in this case, we need to be even more so.

Sheila: Facing addiction or facing an overdose because that would solve all my problems. Wouldn’t it? What a shame. Knowing your former… struggle. You must have somehow got your hands on more meds. Be totally believable, wouldn’t it? No one would question. I never wanted it to come to this. An unfortunate end. But a necessary one.

Finn: Oh, my goodness. You’re so fast. You’re the fastest kid ever. You got to wait up for your dad.

Violet: Ooh, so many colors!

Finn: Mm. Pick whatever you want, sweetheart.

Violet: Have you ever gotten your nails done, daddy?

Finn: Me? [ Laughs ] No. N-nope.

Violet: You should get your nails done, too.

Finn: [ Laughs ] Yeah.

Ava: First time for everything.

[ Gloves striking bag ]

Sonny: Whoever he is, you must hate him a lot.

[ Gloves striking bag ]

Portia: N’neka. N’neka, hi. Um, is Curtis around?

N’neka: [ Sighs ] Sorry, Dr. Robinson. He texted me that he’d be coming in late. Do you want to leave a message for him?

Portia: Oh, no, no. I’ve been leaving messages. I just haven’t heard back from him.

Drew: Join the club. Curtis hasn’t been answering my messages, either.

[ Gloves striking bag ]

Sonny: Damn. Love’s stronger than hate. Anybody I know? Something wrong, Dante?

Dante: Uh… I just got a text from Jordan. I’m needed at G.H.

Sonny: Trouble?

Dante: I don’t know yet.

Sonny: Oh.

Dante: I’ll let you know.

Sonny: Okay.

Curtis: Must be frustrating. A son with a badge, won’t share.

Sonny: Me and Dante know where we stand. Like, kind of like maybe you and your father, right?

[ Cellphone rings ]

Brando: Nina?

Nina: Brando. Listen, I know this is last minute, but I was wondering if you could swing by my apartment.

Brando: Is something wrong?

Nina: I just — I just met with Sasha, and I could be overreacting. I probably am. But she seemed kind of fragile.

Brando: Yeah, I’m on the way.

Curtis: [ Sighs ] Looks like you might need those more than me.

Lucy: Ladies. To us. And to the success of the IPO. Deception would not be where it is today without all your hard work and passion. Cheers.

Group: Cheers. Cheers.

[ Laughter ]

Gladys: Hey, uh, since I’m included in the “hard work” and “passion” speech, why haven’t I been given a stock share?

Lucy: Mm! Gladys, you got a nice little raise.

Gladys: Peanuts.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ] Go mooch off your rich daughter-in-law.

Lucy; [ Clears throat ] Excuse me. Uh, hey, what are you gonna do with all your millions?

Maxie: Oh, I’m gonna put a ton of it away for my kids’ education.

Brook Lynn: Expecting a call?

Maxie: Austin was supposed to stop by, but that was, like, an hour ago.

Glady: -[ Laughs ]

Sasha: -Hey!

Glady: Are you shy all of a sudden? What kept you so long? We can’t have a party without the Face of Deception.

Sasha: Well, I am here now, so let’s get this party started, huh?

[ Women cheer ] -Yeah! -Yeah!

Alexis: This is how you show your love for Willow? By killing me and Carly?

Harmony: I didn’t want it this way, Alexis!

Alexis: Where does it end, Harmony? First Neil. Then his brother. Now me and Carly. How many people have to die to maintain the lie that Willow is your daughter?

Harmony: As many as it takes.

Sonny: Oh, you know what? I just finished my workout. I don’t need to climb back in the ring to show you how it’s done.

Curtis: [ Chuckles ]

Sonny: Especially after the great night that I had at your club.

Curtis: If you’re talking about the poker game, Ms. Wu runs the games. I just give her access to the back room.

Sonny: Must be a profitable arrangement.

Curtis: Well, you would know, since you and Ms. Wu partnered up.

Sonny: Oh, Ms. Wu, she’s not my partner. She’s my business associate. Just like you. I mean, treat her as such, and everybody walks away happy at the end of the evening.

Curtis: Oh, I don’t know. Some leave richer, some poorer.

Sonny: Well, life’s a gamble. And there’s nothing riskier than family. You should know about that.

Curtis: That’s the second time you’ve alluded to my father. Why the sudden interest?

Drew: Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

Portia: That Curtis’ radio silence has something to do with Marshall?

Drew: So, what do you know, like, specifically?

Portia: Well, Trina told me that she ran into Marshall on his way out of town, and he said that he was no longer interested in putting down roots in Port Charles anymore.

Drew: Or with his family.

Portia: And you don’t seem surprised by that information. Drew, you know why Marshall left town. Don’t you?

[ Elevator bell dings ]

Dante: How’s the patient?

Rory: He’s messed up pretty bad.

Dante: Mm-hmm. Tj. What’s going on? Is he conscious? Is he saying anything?

TJ: Well, the patient is awake, but he’s not making much sense.

Dante: Mm. You know what? Officer Cabrera, I got this. Thank you. I need to see him.

TJ: Yeah.

[ Monitor beeping ]

TJ: The patient’s name is — I already know the patient’s name.

Dante: Eric and I, we go way back.

Nina: Hey. Come on in. Thank you for coming over.

Brando: Of course.

Nina: Did I ever thank you for helping Sonny overcome the men who tried to rob us?

Brando: Ah, wrong place, right time.

Nina: Yeah. Well, most people, they run from trouble. But you ran right into it kind of deliberately.

Brando: Yeah. Okay, so you didn’t really call me over here to thank me or to rehash what happened at charlie’s. This is about Sasha, so…

Nina: But the two are kind of connected, Brando. Your courage put you right in the line of fire. And that really frightened Sasha.

Brando: Okay, well, I mean, Sasha knows that was a one-off. I have made it a point of keeping my distance from Sonny, so…

Nina: And yet, Sonny’s world still managed to find you. I know that you know this, but, Brando, you have to take this seriously. After losing Liam, she is terrified of losing you, too.

Sasha: Who wants seconds? Next round’s on me.

Lucy: Oh, well, look at you, already spending your newfound wealth. Does Mr. Gilmore have a say?

Sasha: My husband is Mr. Brando Corbin, Lucy. He’s a very special person with his own identity.

Gladys: You tell ’em, honey. It never pays to underestimate the Corbins.

Lucy: I’m teasing. Okay. Another toast. To me. For being so smart to bring you all together to make Deception the jewel in the cosmetic crown. Hear, hear.

[ Women ] -Cheers. -Cheers. -Cheers.

Lucy: Oh, hey! I actually spoke with Brando this morning, and I am hot on the trail of finding you the perfect house.

Maxie: If you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go wash up.

Brook Lynn: And I’ll join you. Excuse me.

Maxie: Okay.

Lucy: Okay. Listen. I really do believe that real estate is an important, important investment. But you can’t drive it and you can’t wear it. So, tell me, what do you want to just splurge on to celebrate?

Gladys: I vote for a hot pink convertible.

Lucy: [ Sighs ]

Brook Lynn: Is it just me, or is Sasha only pretending to enjoy herself?

Maxie: It’s not just you.

Brook Lynn: And you. You’re not even pretending. Is Austin ghosting you?

Maxie: Why would you say something like that?

Brook Lynn: Just, if I’m wrong, tell me.

Maxie: You’re wrong.

Brook Lynn: But some guys can’t handle when the woman they’re seeing can buy and sell them.

Gladys: So, lucy, what do you intend to do with your millions?

Lucy: I don’t know. I haven’t figured it out quite yet.

Sasha: Maybe a getaway in Maui?

Waiter: The face of deception is living it up with the top brass in the Metro Court gardens. No. They’re just getting started.

[ Laughter ]

[ Grunts ]

Harmony: I just wanted to be your friend, Alexis!

Alexis: Then let me go!

Harmony: I can’t! I’m not a murderer. It’s all of you. It was you. You all made me do it.

[ Grunts ]

Alexis: Someone else made you stick a needle in Neil’s arm? Or push his brother to his death? None of that was your fault or your doing?

Harmony: None of it. You’re wrong, Harmony. Or should I say Lorraine?

[ Screaming ]

Carly: Back the hell off!

Ava: Is this your first time getting your nails done?

Violet: Yes.

Ava: [ Chuckles ]

Violet: Ooh, so pretty. I want that color.

Finn: Yeah?

Ava: Oh, do you like this? Oh, I’m glad. Thank you. ‘Cause I was a little worried about it. You know, you could probably get a design in this color if you like.

Violet: Daddy, can I have a design?

Finn: Hmm?

Ava: It costs a little extra, dad. Sorry.

Finn: Whatever you want, sweetheart. You want to go pick out a design?

Violet: Yeah.

Finn: Come on. Here you go.

Nail Tech: Come on, sweetheart. Let’s pick something out.

Finn: Okay.

Ava: My little girl, Avery, she likes getting little unicorns or rainbows and… never too soon to experience the finer things.

Finn: Mm. Yeah.

Ava: [ Laughs ]

Finn: Violet was named “class helper of the week,” so this is sort of her special treat.

Ava: Oh. I bet it’s a treat for you, too.

Finn: Mm.

Ava: If you’re anything like me, there’s nothing more precious than time with your little girl.

Sonny: Your father intrigues me because the first time I met him, he acted like he didn’t like me, like we traded punches in a past life.

Curtis: Maybe you did.

Sonny: Well, that’s Marshall’s problem.

Curtis: You know, my dad, he has no use for people in your chosen profession, but since you’re interested, Sonny, why did you tell me no when I asked for your help to look into his past?

Sonny: The first time I met Marshall was when he came to Port Charles. But let me tell you something. Sometimes the past should be left where it belongs — in the past.

Drew: Portia, I really think that you should speak to Curtis about this.

Portia: And I certainly would if he would return my messages. Or yours. [ Scoffs ] I can only assume that something very serious is going on here. And I get the sense that you know more than what you’re telling me.

Drew: Mm…

Portia: Drew, I’m not asking you to betray a confidence, but if Curtis is hurting, I want to be there. I want — I want to help him. I-I need to.

Drew: I know how much Curtis means to you. I really do. And I know how much you mean to Curtis, so… me keeping silent, that’s not gonna help anybody. I’ll just take the hit from Curtis if it comes to that, I guess.

Portia: Then you do know why Marshall left town?

Drew: Yeah. I helped drive him away.

Maxie: And you’re wrong about Austin. Money means nothing to him. When I first met him, he was hiking in the woods, munching on granola bars.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, until he moved to Port Charles and he started to maneuver for a slice of the Quartermaine pie.

Maxie: No, he didn’t want anything to do with the Quartermaine millions. He just wanted respect for his father. He even turned down that offer your family made to buy him out.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, because he was holding out for voting stock, which, by the way, has more value.

Maxie: Okay, Brook Lynn, what happened to giving Austin a chance? For my sake?

Brook Lynn: Okay, you’re right. I’m just speaking from my own experience. Most guys that I meet are either threatened by my trust fund or want to help me spend it. Look, I hope for your sake that I’m wrong and that nature boy is the exception.

Austin: I am so sorry. I had the world’s most difficult patient, and then I got stuck in traffic. And I should have — you look amazing.

Maxie: Thank you.

Austin: Hi. Everything okay?

Waiter: They’re over there.

Sasha: Thanks for suggesting this.

Gladys: Especially since the tab is on Deception.

Sasha: I really needed a chance to unwind.

Lucy: Mm, come on. I think we all did. But I have to tell you, tomorrow is another grueling day. We have to meet with prospective buyers. And then you have a bunch of interviews with social media and for print. And then I did set up a couple of wine-and-dines for our distributors with you.

Sasha: [ Sighs ] Being the face of deception is a 24-hour gig.

Gladys: [ Laughs ] You make it sound like a bad thing. You’re gorgeous, successful, a multimillionaire. You were born for this.

Photographer: Smile, Sasha. Let’s see that Face of Deception.

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

Brando: Sasha knows she isn’t going to lose me. I’ve made sure of that.

Nina: Yeah, well, you can plan all you want in your life, but you know how life is. It’s unpredictable. What did you say, Brando? You said, uh, “wrong place, right time.” Well, sometimes it’s wrong place, wrong time.

Brando: Okay, I get it, Nina. I do. Bad things happen. Things that we can’t plan for. But, look, Sasha doesn’t have to worry about me taking any stupid risks or being in the line of fire. I’m not in active service anymore. I’m not a cop. And I’m definitely not involved in any aspect of Sonny’s business. I just fix cars.

Nina: Yeah. You and Sasha, you experienced a traumatic loss. Your recovery may not be the same as Sasha’s.

Brando: I know.

Nina: When you have that kind of loss, you’re frightened into thinking that it is gonna happen again any time. And you’re afraid to invest. And you don’t trust your own happiness because you know that that can be snatched away quickly. I k-know the, um… unbearable pain of losing a child. And… that’s a kind of emptiness that never really goes away.

Carly: What the hell are you doing?!

Harmony: I won’t let you take Willow and Wiley away from me! Alexis! No! Please! No!

Carly: Harmony, stop!

Harmony: Alexis! No! No! Please! Alexis!

Curtis: If I didn’t know better, I’d think you were deliberately keeping something from me.

Sonny: You and I haven’t had much — any problems. But I know how much Nina values your friendship.

Curtis: Yeah, Nina’s great.

Sonny: I agree with that. And I just want you to know that I’m not here to muscle in on your club.

Curtis: You and Selina Wu — business partners? Really?

Sonny: Yeah. And I hope everything works out with you and your dad.

Curtis: Well, you might be a little too late. Marshall’s already left town.

Drew: Curtis wanted to find out what Marshall was up to all those years he pretended to be dead.

Portia: Yes. And I know that you offered to help him. So what did you do? Did you hire a private investigator? Did you tap Marshall’s phone, go through the garbage? What?

Drew: I offered him a job at Aurora.

Portia: That’s it? And Curtis knows about this?

Drew: Mm-hmm. You apply for a job, what’s the first thing H.R. Does?

Portia: Run a background check.

Drew: Yeah. Long story short, we actually came up empty, but Marshall found out about it, and he — you know, he felt used.

Portia: Still, still, okay… but do you think that would be enough to drive Marshall away?

Drew: Maybe. Or maybe Curtis discovered something else and confronted Marshall about it?

Portia: Any idea what that “something else” is?

Drew: Look, all I know is that Curtis was trying to protect you and Trina from any trouble that might have been following Marshall around. So, please, try not to judge him too harshly for going behind his father’s back.

Portia: Even if it costs Curtis his father?

Dante: You remember me? I’m the cop who busted you for armed robbery at Charlie’s Pub. Where’s your partner? Is he worse off than you are? You know, I notice you don’t feel like talking very much. I’ll make it real simple for you, okay? Who did this to you?

Photographer Felty: Smile, Sasha. Let’s see that beautiful Face of Deception.

Gladys: Hey, hey, hey, hey! Stop!

Felty: Oh, come on.

Sasha: Stop it!

Lucy: Go!

Female: Who let you in here?!

Felty: Sasha, give me something good. You’re famous.

Lucy: Okay, wait. That’s it. You got enough.

Felty: Come on.

Lucy: I’m gonna call security. You’re done. You’re done.

Felty: Ladies, ladies, ladies, let’s get a shot of the newly minted millionaires on top of the world.

Lucy: -I’m calling security.

Maxie: -That’s enough!

Brook Lynn: Do you want Olivia Quartermaine to know about this? Did I mention she’s my stepmother?

Sasha: Just leave me alone, please.

Austin: No, no, no. Come on, dude. You heard the lady. Leave her alone.

Felty: I’m just trying to do my job.

Austin: Don’t do your job. Just beat it.

Felty; Deception’s loss.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ]

Gladys: Where’d Sasha go?

Sasha: [ Breathing heavily ] [ Groans ]

Felty: Is that on the menu?

Sasha: [ Gasps ]

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

[ Grunting ]

Alexis: Someone’s trying to kill us. Send police to Rana Point.

Harmony: No!

Carly: Harmony!

Alexis: Hurry, please! She’s lost her mind!

Harmony: No! No!

Alexis: I-I-I’ll send for an ambulance.

Carly: We got to stop her. We got to stop her!

Ava: Thank you.

Violet: What’s the most popular color?

Nail tech: This happens to be the most popular color.

Violet: Cool.

Finn: [ Chuckles ] Violet is in seventh heaven.

Ava: Hmm? Enjoy it. I don’t get as much time as I’d like with my daughter. I’ve learned to cherish every moment.

Violet: [ Laughs ] It tickles.

Ava: Wait until you get a pedicure.

Finn: The operative word is “wait.” Great. Now she’s gonna want one of those, too.

Ava: And you’ll let her have one. You’re a good dad. I can tell.

Finn: I try. Of course, I get accused of overdoing it sometimes, but… really, this is the easy part, right? I mean, the hard part is wanting to protect her every single moment, whether I’m with her or not.

Ava: I know exactly how you feel. Last year, I… I almost left the country to protect Avery. I’m glad it didn’t come to that.

Finn: [ Sighs ] Anything for them, right?

Ava: Absolutely anything.

Violet: Daddy, you haven’t picked a color yet.

Finn: Hmm? What was I just saying? Hmm?

[ Both laugh ]

Finn: Okay, I’ll pick a color. [ Smooches ]

[ Monitor beeping ]

Dante: You know who did this to you, don’t you?

Sonny: How you doing? Don’t worry, you’ll be joining your friend real soon. [ Laughs ]

Dante: Hey, I’ll lock up whoever did it to you. You just got to give me a name.

Sonny: Why aren’t you looking Dante: for your dad? Oh, unless you know where he’s headed.

Curtis: I don’t.

Sonny: You know, I can get my guys to track him down.

Curtis: Why do you care?

Sonny: Well, I know what it’s like for, you know, a father and a son to stop trusting each other.

Curtis: I’m sure you speak from experience.

Sonny: I have two very different, strong sons that mean the world to me. We’ve had our differences over the years. We’ve, uh, burned some bridges. Some have been repaired. Others haven’t.

Curtis: I’m sorry. How do you know my father and I haven’t burned our own bridges?

Sonny: Well, only you know that. You don’t think it can be rebuilt?

Curtis: [ Sighs ]

Sonny: Let me just — let me just tell you something. If you think it can… don’t give up.

Portia: -Thank you, n’neka.

Drew: -Thanks.

N’neka: Thank you.

Drew: Look, Marshall was hiding something from his past, and Curtis just had no idea when that secret might surface or what it might lead to. So he was just trying to be proactive, trying to almost dig out that secret before it blew back on his family.

Portia: Marshall is a musician. He has a clarinet in his case, not a machine gun.

Drew: Then why is he being so secretive? Why is he implying that he’s been on the run from something, or someone, from his past?

Portia: I guess I just wish that he would have let me help him find those answers. I could have helped him avoid some trouble in the process. I mean…

Drew: No, there’s no trouble. Yeah, there’s no trouble yet, Drew.

Drew: Just put yourself in Curtis’ shoes for a second. If Marshall’s past does end up being dangerous, the less you know, the better.

Nina: Never mind me. It’s — nobody is going to use me as a model on how to recover from grief in a healthy way. You know what I’m probably doing? Just projecting my own loss onto Sasha.

Brando: Maybe she still seems like the daughter you never had. Sasha still regrets trying to pass herself off as your child. And she thinks about it nearly every day.

Nina: Well, Sasha and I both have done things that we regret. You just tell your wife — I want you to tell her this — that she just needs to focus in on herself and you. And if that’s not enough to make her happy, then this amazing career that she has that has made her so much money.

Brando: Yeah. It doesn’t take the place of Liam. Nothing does.

Sasha: Stop it. Please. Just leave me alone, please.

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

Sasha: Just stop it!

Austin: Let’s go get some dinner.

Maxie: Can we reschedule? I-I don’t want to leave Sasha.

Brook Lynn: No, I’ll stick around. I’ll make sure that Sasha’s okay. You enjoy your night.

Austin: Are you suggesting… I mean, you’re helping Maxie spend time with me?

Brook Lynn: As long as I don’t have to spend time with you.

Austin: That’s funny. Touché.

Maxie: Thank you, Brook Lynn. Um, should we go up to the terrace for the spring tasting menu?

Austin: Or I got a better idea. Why don’t we get a six-pack and some takeout wings and go back to your place?

Sasha: -Just — just leave me alone!

Austin: -Sasha.

[ Sasha groans ]

Gladys: What? Hey! What part of “get lost” do you not understand?!

Felty: Give that back!

Austin: Or you’ll do what? What would you do?

Felty: I’m just doing my job.

Austin: Okay, well, do your job someplace else. Like the gutter.

Felty: She has my camera. That’s theft.

Gladys: Take it back, you filthy, rotten piece of garbage. Let’s go, sweetie. Come on. Carly’s gonna hear about this.

Lucy: Okay. Go, go, go, go, go. Okay. You do know who she’s talking about? Really? Do you not know Carly? Carly, who happens to be the ex-wife of Sonny Corinthos, a very complicated businessman. So I think you should be afraid. Very, very afraid. Because I know from personal experience that Mr. Corinthos has a very bad temper. Short fuse. He doesn’t like women exploited. And you know what? If he’s not gonna handle it, if he doesn’t want to get involved, Carly has a very fearsome lawyer, and she will take everything from you, make you bankrupt without breaking a nail!

Felty: She took my memory card! That has my photos on it!

Brook Lynn: Gladys.

Maxie: Gladys.

Carly: [ Breathing heavily ]

Alexis: What happened to you?

Carly: Harmony drugged me. We’ve got to stop her.

Alexis: Oh, let the police take care of it. They’re on their way.

Carly: And if they’re too late, Harmony’s gonna go straight for Willow and Wiley.

Ava: [ Gasps ] Oh! Absolutely beautiful. You chose the perfect color.

Violet: I like daddy’s, too.

Ava: Yeah?

Finn: [ Blows ] Wow. I really think lavender’s my color.

[ Ava and Violet laugh ]

Ava: Anything for them, right?

Finn: [ Laughs ] Yeah.

Sonny: Hey, baby. Do you want an ice-cream sundae? Yeah? You’ve been a good girl? [ Chuckles ] Alright, here’s what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna pick up all the stuff to make the ice-cream sundae, and I’m gonna bring it to you tomorrow. Is that a deal? I love you, too, sweetheart. Sweet dreams. Bye!

Dante: Oh, there it is. Hey. You’re still here, huh?

Sonny: Yeah. What happened at G.H.?

Dante: TJ got a new patient — one of the guys who tried to rob you at Charlie’S.

Sonny: Really? Some people just, you know, can’t catch a break.

Dante: Uh-huh.

Sonny: How’s he doing?

Dante: Got a broken arm, lost a tooth, lost some blood. Lost some memory, actually, too.

Sonny: Is that so?

Dante: Yeah. Doesn’t know how he got to the E.R. Or who put him in there.

Sonny: Yeah. Memory is a very fragile thing. I mean, I should know that.

Dante: Mm-hmm.

Sonny: How’s his partner?

Dante: Vanished. Thin air.

Messenger: This is for Dr. Ashford.

Nurse: Oh, he’s right over there.

Messenger: Thank you. Dr. Ashford?

TJ: That’s me.

Messenger: Sign here, please. Thank you.

TJ: Thanks. Wait. Who’s this from?

Nina: Brando, I’ve never said this. I’m sorry that you lost Liam, too. Your grief is just as significant as Sasha’s.

Brando: Yeah, Sasha and I, we grieve different ways. Yeah. I guess I get my way from my mom.

Nina: [ Chuckles ]

Brando: Whatever Gladys is feeling, you know. When you step on her toes, she says, “ouch.”

Nina: That’s right. And if you stepped on Sasha’s toes, she would apologize for being in the way.

Brando: My mom’s worried that, um, you know, Sasha’s trying to cover up her pain. I thought that was just, you know, her way of processing it.

Nina: Yeah, she — she insists on toughing it out, right?

Brando: Mm.

Nina: And keeping all that hurt inside, which means that all that pain could be taking an emotional toll on her that no one’s really aware of.

[ Horn honking ]

Sasha: It’s the photographer. I can’t shake him.

Gladys: He wants this.

Sasha: You stole his memory card?

Gladys: That rat deserved it after taking all those pictures of you.

[ Horn honking ]

Gladys: Just to make a fast buck.

Sasha: Oh, God. I’d tell you how much I love you right now, Gladys, but first we need to lose this parasite.

[ Engine revving ]

Rory: Paramedics are on their way.

Carly: Okay.

Rory: How are you feeling?

Carly: Well, Harmony Miller drugged me. I have no idea what was in the syringe, but I’m feeling better. Much better. And Alexis saved my life.

Alexis: You saved mine.

Rory: So you both were targeted because Harmony Miller killed Dr. Neil Byrne, and you found out?

Alexis: Harmony also killed Neil’s brother, Brendon.

Rory: The body that was recovered from the harbor.

Alexis: She pushed him off the cliff, and the river must’ve carried him into the harbor.

Rory: Did she indicate a motive?

Alexis: He was blackmailing Harmony.

Carly: You’re wasting your time talking to us. Harmony took off through the woods. You have got to stop her. If she reaches the highway, she’s gonna escape.

Harmony: [ Panting ] You two are all I have left. And I won’t lose you.

Dante: You wouldn’t know anything about a disappearing robbery suspect, would you?

Sonny: Some guys are just meant for trouble, like those guys who tried to hold me up at, you know, Charlie’s.

Dante: Mm.

Sonny: And then trouble finally caught up to them.

Dante: Yeah, I mean, one of them disappeared and one of them’s beat up in the hospital. But I think the message got through.

Sonny: To whom?

Dante: To them. To whoever else tries to take what’s yours.

Sonny: I’m a victim. You know that, right?

Dante: -Yeah, I know. -Yeah. But, look, I know someone paid for their high-priced lawyer. I know someone got them bailed out. And that’s somebody that did that to be generous or to keep them within reach.

Sonny: Yeah.

Dante: Hey, look… let’s hope the message got through and was received and that’s the end of it and there’s no repercussions. Okay?

Sonny: It’s a — it’s a dangerous world out there. Right? And I just want to say that the PCPD is damn lucky… …to have a good man like you.

Portia: If Curtis knows why his father walked out on him for the second time, that would explain his silence.

Drew: How so?

Portia: Maybe Curtis went after Marshall. Maybe Curtis is in danger. I don’t know.

Drew: Hey. You okay? I mean, we were getting a little worried.

Curtis: Yeah, I saw that you, uh, had left some messages. I’m sorry to upset you.

Portia: Well, you know me — always imagining the worst-case scenario.

Curtis: [ Sighs ]

Drew: Alright, I got to get going. Um… next time, just shoot me a text, give me a thumbs up, let me know you’re okay.

Curtis: We got to talk.

Portia: Yeah. Yeah, we sure do.

TJ: “I wanted to leave you a gift, but all I have to offer is this gift of music. Like you said about surgery, it’s part of one great, unfinished symphony. Your loving grandfather.” [ Chuckles ]

Nina: Listen, Brando, you shouldn’t have to support Sasha all by yourself. If it doesn’t seem like intruding, I would love to help her through this challenging time.

Brando: Yeah. No. No intrusion at all. You’re already helping by bringing this to my attention.

Nina: Right. So together, we’ll make sure Sasha knows that she is not alone.

Brando Thank you.

Nina: You’re welcome. Get out of here.

Brando: I’m going.

Lucy: I know that Sasha’s had issues with gladys in the past. I mean, really, haven’t we all? But tonight, under the circumstances, I’m very glad that gladys is Sasha’s mother-in-law.

Brook Lynn: Oh, the photographer was like a-a tick. He latched onto Sasha. We could not get rid of him.

Maxie: Is she okay? Do you think we should call her?

Lucy: Oh, you know what? I just have a feeling that maybe she’s gonna want to be alone. Okay. Tab’s all taken care of, and I will see you two bright and early in the morning. And hopefully, Sasha’s gotten over the shock of suddenly being rich and famous.

Brook Lynn: Lucy. All the money in the world, and it can’t buy happiness, right, Austin?

Austin: Uh, yeah, for sure. Money doesn’t buy happiness, but, you know, it does pay for a tasting menu upstairs.

Maxie: Wait a second. Hold on.

Austin: And wine pairing.

Maxie: No. I thought you wanted chicken wings.

Austin: Yeah, I changed my mind. As much as it pains me to agree with Brook Lynn, she makes a valid point. I think it sounds nice. A nice, romantic evening. Shall we?

Maxie: We shall.

Austin: Awesome.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ]

Rory: Lorraine Miller, also known as Harmony.

Carly: Please notify Michael Corinthos. He and Willow Tait share a child, Wiley Corinthos, and Harmony could be going straight for them.

Alexis: The police have to find Harmony before she makes it to the Quartermaines’.

Carly: Harmony’s already killed two people. She has nothing else to lose.

Harmony: Willow. I have to get to you… before they turn you against me. You’ll understand. I’ll make you understand.

[ Horn honking ]

Sasha: What’s he doing?

[ Horn honks ]

Gladys: Aah! Look out!

[ Screams ]

[ Crash ]

On the next “General Hospital” —

Portia (to Curtis): I thought that we were in this together.

Jordan: What else do you know?

Laura: And I come bearing glad tidings.

Spencer (into phone): I need you to do me this one favor.

Trina (to Rory): I can, I’m not sure if I should.

Carly (into phone): I need you and Willow to come to the emergency room right now.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Chanel: Oh, what did I do?

Tripp: You got your mind off johnny and allie?

Chanel: Johnny and allie who?

[Both laugh]

[Knock at door] Oh, god. [Sighs] Tripp. I was just thinking about you.

Demon allie: And done. Thank you for your cooperation, benny. And I didn’t even wake you from your slumber. Just had to pop by and get this before I head out to take care of business.

Johnny: What are you doing?

Demon allie: Oh, nothing for you to worry your pretty little head about, bro. If I were you, I’d be more worried about what’s going on with chanel and tripp. Spoiler alert: From what I saw, it looks like they had a pretty rockin’ time last night. Sucks to be you. Sucks to be anyone but me, if we’re being honest.

Johnny: Ben. Ben! Ben!

Ben: What? Ahh! What the hell is going on? What the– where am I?

Ciara: Ben? Ben? Huh. You know, I normally don’t like herbal teas but this one is really delicious, thank you. And it’s already working. I’m already feeling kind of sleepy.

Allie: Well, that’s what it’s supposed to do.

Ciara: Actually, do you mind if I go to bed now?

Allie: No, not at all.

Ben: Well, okay. All right. That’s the good stuff. Let’s go, sleepy girl.

Ciara: Mmm.

Shawn: So what do you want me to do, jan?

Jan: You’re an officer of the law. Pull some strings. Call in some favors. Get me released.

Shawn: They’re not gonna let nut job with your record out of prison just because you’re pregnant. Even if it is high-risk.

Jan: There are options other than letting me free.

Shawn: Okay, like what?

Jan: House arrest?

Shawn: Okay, whose house?

Jan: Yours.

Shawn: No, you cannot be serious.

Jan: Oh, I’m super serious, shawn. I want you to take me home with you.

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

[Soft orchestration]

Eric: Belle?

Belle: Eric! Oh, my gosh, a little birdie told me you were back town.

Eric: That little birdie wouldn’t happen to be mom, would it?

Belle: Oh, well, she’s really excited you’re back. And so am I. Gosh, it is so good to see you.

Eric: Yeah, it’s good to see you, too. Especially this morning.

Belle: Oh? What? What’s the matter?

Eric: Nicole. She’s having breakfast with rafe inside. They’re together now. You probably already knew that.

Belle: Yeah, I did. So, I guess that’s why they’re in there and you’re out here.

Eric: Yeah. Something like that.

Belle: Well, at least I get to spend more time with my brother this way!

Eric: How can I say no to that? Listen, I wanted to say that I’m sorry. I’m sorry I wasn’t here for you before when–

Belle: When I was possessed.

Shawn: Look, jan, you know that this is not a simple request. I mean, you committed some serious crimes.

Jan: Allegedly.

Shawn: Not allegedly. You were a kidnapper and a blackmailer. I mean, you tried to kill people. Do you really think a sane judge judge is gonna release you out into the world to do more damage?

Jan: But I wouldn’t be released out into the world. I’d be released into the custody of my baby-daddy.

Shawn: Do not call me that.

Jan: I’m just saying if everyone knows that I’m living with you, they’ll know you’ll take extra special good care of me. And our baby. I have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Jan: Shawn, you are a detective. You were the acting police commissioner. If anyone can guarantee that I won’t be a danger to the public, it’s you.

Shawn: Yeah, sorry, it’s not gonna happen. You’re exactly where you belong, jan.

Jan: Didn’t you hear what the doctor said? I need to be on total bed rest.

Shawn: Okay, well, then just stay in bed.

Jan: And how is that possible when every prisoner has to be up by six, in the cafeteria by seven, and back to our cells for inspection by eight?

Shawn: Well, I’m sure the prison will make some accommodations for you.

Jan: Yeah, have you seen this place? Do they seem accommodating?

Shawn: Well, then I’ll talk to the warden. I’ll see if you can stay here in the infirmary until the baby’s born.

Jan: Are you kidding? Shawn, do you know how many diseases are flying around this place? It’s like a cough factory. Besides, I’m not exactly everyone’s favorite prisoner.

Shawn: Now, that’s a big surprise.

Jan: I’m just saying I don’t trust these creeps to take care of my baby. Sooner or later, they’ll find a way to get me back into my cell. Do you really want to take that kind of a chance with your child’s life?

Belle: Yeah, it all happened really fast and, honestly, it’s still a blur. I’m just grateful that dad knew what to do.

Eric: Yeah. He had to learn the hard way.

Belle: Yeah. And I did a lot of terrible things. I tried to break up chad and abigail and gabi and jake–

Eric: You are not responsible for any of that.

Belle: Well, I feel like I was. Although, it’s so strange knowing that I did all of those things, but not remembering it, it–

Eric: It’s all gone?

Belle: Well, one minute I was downstairs at the dimera mansion talking to johnny and the next minute I’m upstairs tied to a bed and everyone’s telling me I’ve been possessed.

Eric: Mom said after she was possessed by the devil that there were like these gaps in her memory, like she lost chunks of time.

Belle: Right. And that’s what’s so strange because I didn’t lose any time, at all.

Tripp: So, are you as hungover as I am?

Chanel: I don’t know. Do you feel like your tongue grew three sizes overnight?

Tripp: No. I woke up feeling like someone was hammering on my head but from the inside.

Chanel: Oh, god, same.

Tripp: Yeah. Well, lucky for you, I come bearing dr. Tripp johnson’s surefire hangover cure.

Chanel: Oh, yes, I can definitely use a coffee.

Tripp: No, no. This coffee’s actually for me. This is for you.

Chanel: Oh, what’s in there?

Tripp: It’s an electrolyte replacement drink. So, it’s vitamin-infused water, blended with a banana for potassium, raspberries for vitamin c, kefir, ginseng juice.

Chanel: Okay, I’d rather have the coffee.

Tripp: No, you wouldn’T. The coffee dehydrates you.

Chanel: Okay, but you’re drinking it and you just said that you were just as hungover as I am.

Tripp: I was until I downed one of these amazing electrolyte drinks and then I was a totally new person, ready to face the world.

Chanel: Hmm. Just like that.

Tripp: Trust me, this is years of experience talking.

Chanel: Oh, they taught you hangover cures at medical school?

Tripp: No, not in class, but more like trial and error. It was a fair amount of post-exam celebrating which involved a fair amount of over-indulging. So, drink it. Trust me, I promise after you down this, you’ll be rarin’ to go and you’ll forget last night ever even happened.

Ben: So the devil is in allie?

Johnny: Yeah, he is now.

Ben: But jake was right. You were possessed that entire time?

Johnny: Since christmas.

Ben: And you don’t remember any of it at all?

Johnny: No, I don’T. I don’t remember anything from my grandmother’s exorcism until the moment the devil left me.

Ben: Well, how the hell did you get free?

Johnny: Allie saved me. She was talking to me, she was trying to reach out, begging me to fight, to resist the devil. And I did, I fought. I was winning. And then he just– I don’t know, he must’ve jumped from me into my sister.

Ben: And she’s the one who chained us both up?

Johnny: Yeah, she’s hella strong.

Ben: What would the devil want with her?

Johnny: Man, I– I don’t think he’s interested in allie at all. You see, I think–

Ben: What? Say it, johnny!

Johnny: I think he wants what he’s always wanted.

Ben: Ciara. And our baby.

Ciara: Were these here last night? Why can’t I remember?

[Knock at door] Allie.

Allie: Good morning, cuz. I figured you and ben would still be tried, so I brought breakfast. I hope you guys are hungry.

Ciara: Well, that is very sweet of you. Thank you, but ben is not here.

Allie: He isn’t?

Ciara: Yeah, I don’t know where he is. He wasn’t here when I woke up.

Allie: Oh. That’s weird.

Ciara: Yeah, I mean, the last thing I remember was him taking me to bed last night after we all drank the tea. And– do you–do you know what happened after that?

Allie: Last night? Let’s see. Like you said, you were pretty tired, so ben put you to bed. I hung out for a little while. Ben and I had some tea, ourselves. We talked about parenting. And then I headed out pretty soon after.

Ciara: And that’s it?

Allie: Yeah. He was pretty tired so I let him rest.

Ciara: That’s weird because I don’t remember him coming to bed.

Allie: Well, you were really wiped.

Ciara: Yeah, but I am a very light sleeper. I always wake up when he comes into bed, and I always wake up when he gets out of bed. I’m gonna call him.

Allie: Good idea.

[Line ringing]

[Beep]

Ciara: Straight to voicemail. Hm.

Johnny: Hey, dude, you’re gonna hurt yourself. Ben, you’re gonna hurt yourself!

Ben: I have to get out of here. I have to get to ciara.

Johnny: Look, man, I get it, believe me. These chains are unbreakable. I’ve tried. My wrists are rubbed raw.

Ben: He’s after my wife and my baby!

Johnny: Yeah, and before that, he went after the woman I loved and he used me to do it.

Ben: What, chanel? You’re talking about how you dumped her at a party?

Johnny: That wasn’t me! It was him! And the devil wanted to make it stick so he called her as me and taunted her about it. And now she hates me. And I don’t blame her. I mean, I hurt her in the worst way possible. Now she’s off doing god knows what with tripp.

Ben: How do you know that?

Johnny: Well, allie– the devil, gave me my own private screening. They were drinking together at a bar.

Ben: Chanel was probably drowning her sorrows.

Johnny: No, they were doing a hell of a lot more than that. For all I know, they spent the night together.

Tripp: Feel better?

Chanel: I don’t think it works that fast.

Tripp: Just keep hydrating.

Chanel: Is this your new side hustle, hangover cures, peddling them?

Tripp: Well, first of all, since I paid for everything, no, it’s not much of a hustle. Actually, I came here to apologize.

Chanel: Apologize for what?

Tripp: Last night.

Chanel: Why? What did you do?

Tripp: Well, I got drunk and kissed you. And then I took you home hoping to get you into bed.

Chanel: Well, if you haven’t forgotten, I was drunk too and I’m pretty sure that I was down to party. And, if I recall correctly, I’m the one who had the idea. So, yeah, I think the only reason we didn’t go through with it was because my mom stopped us.

Tripp: Yeah. And I’m actually kind of glad she did.

Chanel: Gee, thanks.

Tripp: I didn’t mean it like that, okay? I meant that if we had gone through with it, we’d be doing it for all the wrong reasons.

Chanel: Revenge, right? Making johnny and allie pay for how much they hurt us.

Tripp: Yeah, and you know what the sad thing is? I’m not even sure they’d care.

Eric: You just told me that you don’t remember any of the things you did while you were possessed?

Belle: That’s true. I only know about any of it because of what people told me. I don’t feel like I lost my memory.

Eric: I’m sorry, I just don’t understand.

Belle: Okay. The way mom described it, she would wake up and days and weeks would passed, right?

Eric: Right. And that didn’t happen to you?

Belle: No. Between christmas and the time that I woke up tied to that bed in the dimera mansion, except for the last few hours, I remember all of it. At least I think I do.

Eric: Well, maybe when you were first possessed the devil didn’t have control yet.

Belle: But there were times when the devil would have to had control. To do the damage he did. Like when he took ej’s form or jake’s form.

Eric: Using bodies.

Belle: I mean, that’s what I was told. But it’s not like I came to and realized I was missing time or I didn’t know where I was.

Eric: I mean, maybe it was trying to smooth out the gaps while you weren’t even aware it was happening.

Belle: I mean, anything’s possible I guess.

Eric: Well, anyway, the only thing that matters is that you’re home now and safe. Just hope that you can put that terrible chapter behind you and move on with your life.

Belle: Unfortunately, as much as I wish I could pretend none of this happened and I could just move on, like you said, the devil just did so much damage. He hurt so many people. And this is damage that can’t just be forgotten or repaired that easily. Especially the relationships he wrecked. None more so than my own marriage.

Jan: I’m not delusional, shawn.

Shawn: Well, that’s debatable.

Jan: I can see how you’re looking at me. And I know how you feel about me. I can live with that.

Shawn: Really? Because that’s news to me.

Jan: No matter how much may dislike me, you would never take that out on an innocent child. Especially not your innocent child. That’s not who you are. You’re a good man, shawn. You always have been. Which is why I know that no matter how this child was conceived, you would never want any harm to come to him or her. And for me, well, knowing that I’m going to be a mother, something in me just– it just switched. Maybe because for the first time in my life, somebody’s depending on me. So I feel like I have purpose. And I want to do everything that I can to protect this baby, to care for it, to love it. So if something were to happen in here, I don’t think I could live with that. Could you? Shawn? Can you please talk to the warden? I’m not asking you to do it for me, but for my baby. Our baby.

Eric: Mom told me.

Belle: Mm-hmm. Did she also tell you that I’m staying with her and dad?

Eric: How does shawn feel about that?

Belle: I mean, he wants me to come home, of course.

Eric: Are you going to?

Belle: Well, I was thinking about it, but then we started discussing it and I just– oh, god.

Eric: What?

Belle: Jan called. So I left. I’m sure he went to the prison to go talk to her.

Eric: Listen, I know this is the last thing that you want to hear right now, but–

Belle: I know what you’re gonna say that shawn’s baby and so I should just accept it because I love him.

Eric: That’s not what I was going to say. I was going to say that if shawn has to be there for jan because of the baby, it’s not because he loves her. Or he ever will. Belle, he loves you.

Belle: I know that. But jan is the mother of his child, which means she’s going to be in our lives forever. How do I deal with that? Does a marriage survive that?

Ben: Allie was in our apartment last night. She brought over some kind of tea that she told ciara helped her sleep while she was pregnant. So ciara drank some of it. She got really tired. I took her off to bed. I came back, I started talking to allie, and–

Johnny: Did you drink the tea?

Ben: She drugged the both of us, johnny.

Johnny: Yeah, were you were pretty out of it when she brought you in here.

Ben: Damn it, man! Ciara must’ve woken up in our bed this morning wondering where the hell I am and where the hell I could’ve gone.

Ciara: Hey, baby, please, please call me back once you get this. Okay, love you. Why is he not answering?

Allie: I’m sure he’s just busy. You know, working under a car.

Ciara: I hope so. I think I’m going to go to the garage to check on him. Thank you so much for stopping by.

Allie: Oh, what’s this?

Ciara: Where did you find that?

Allie: It must’ve fallen on the floor.

Ciara: Is it from ben?

Allie: “Woke up early. Didn’t want to wake you. Have a good time with allie. Love, ben.” So sweet.

Ciara: How did he know you were going to be here this morning?

Allie: I told him last night that I was going to be checking on you this morning. Oh, which reminds me, I have something else for you.

Your mission:

Ciara: Allie, you did not have to bring me anything.

Allie: No, it is no big deal. What do you think?

Ciara: That is really cute.

Allie: It was henry’S. Can you believe how small this is? I mean, it’s hard to imagine that he fit into this at one point.

Ciara: I love it. Thank you.

Allie: I have so many clothes that he’s outgrown. And don’t feel pressured to take them all, but you could start with a full wardrobe. And I also have toys and bottles and they’re all yours.

Ciara: That is very thoughtful of you.

Allie: But I should’ve asked first, right? I mean, you don’t want all these hand-me-downs. You probably want to shop for your little boy yourself.

Ciara: No, no, this is– these are great.

Allie: No, I’ve made it all awkward.

Ciara: You have not made it awkward. Please.

Allie: I think it’s just my pregnancy was overwhelming and really scary. I wasn’t even ready to be a mom, I didn’t want to be a mom at first. So I think seeing you and ben, seeing your joy, your hopefulness, it gives me a taste of what I didn’t have. I guess I just want to be a part of it.

Ciara: Allie, you are so sweet. And I love that you want to be a part of it. And ben and I will be more than grateful for you to join us in this journey. Come here. Oh.

Chanel: If we’re being honest, I’m the one who should be apologizing to you.

Tripp: For what?

Chanel: Oh, I don’t know, stealing your girlfriend.

Tripp: Ah. That. Yeah.

Chanel: I was supposed to be your friend and I kind of broke the bro code.

Tripp: I’m not really sure “bro code” applies to you.

Chanel: Yeah, but still, it didn’t matter how I felt about allie. She was your girlfriend.

Tripp: Followed your heart, right?

Chanel: Yeah, but I’m so sorry for the way that that happened. I mean, that night when allie and I were together for the first time, I was hurting because of what johnny did to me. And I’m ashamed to say, I wasn’t thinking about you and how hurt you would be. And tripp, that was so wrong. I know that now. And I really, really am sorry.

Tripp: Look, at the end of the day, allie’s the one who cheated on me. But thank you for saying that. It means a lot.

Belle: Everyone keeps telling me it’s not shawn’s fault that he betrayed me. But he liked to me. For months, he had every opportunity to tell me that he slept with jan and he kept that from me.

Eric: You had every right to be angry.

Belle: But I should get over it, right?

Eric: I don’t presume to tell you what to do, belle. But from my experience, with nicole, there’s no looking back. I just wish I– I wish I’d been more forgiving. You know, I shouldn’t have judged her so harshly. It cost me to lose her and lose my marriage. And I don’t want that to happen for you.

Belle: I don’t want to lose shawn. I just don’t know if I’m ready to go home yet.

Eric: You can’t avoid him forever.

Belle: So how do I know when I’m ready?

Eric: I can’t give you that, but I can tell you this. You can’t find the answers by avoiding your husband. The only way that you’re gonna make it through this mess is to go home and work this out together.

Jan: Well?

Shawn: I spoke to the warden.

Jan: And?

Shawn: And he’s not exactly thrilled about letting a dangerous prisoner out into the world.

Jan: Am I really dangerous anymore?

Shawn: Look, ultimately a decision like this would be left to the judge who did your sentencing. But–

Jan: But?

Shawn: Look, apparently there is extreme overcrowding here.

Jan: Tell me about it. I had to wait an hour to take a shower with a clogged drain the other day.

Shawn: Well, so, if you were to be released temporarily into my custody, it wouldn’t only be helping your baby–

Jan: Our baby.

Shawn: It would be solving the warden’s problem as well. And since I– since I guaranteed that I would be responsible for you–

Jan: Does that mean yes?

Shawn: The judge signed off, it’s a–so that is a yes.

Shawn: How’s that?

Jan: It’s not a glass slipper, but it’ll do.

Shawn: If you try to leave the house without permission, I’m warning you, you’re going to be swarmed by a whole bunch of unfriendly cops.

Jan: Duly noted. I just hope belle’s gonna be okay with this.

Shawn: You’re not gonna have to worry about belle.

Jan: Did you tell her I’d be moving in?

Shawn: She’s not gonna be there.

Jan: What do you mean? Is she away on business?

Shawn: She’s staying at her mom’S.

Jan: She moved out?

Shawn: For now.

Jan: Shawn, is it because of–

Shawn: Yes, jan, of course it is!

Jan: I’m sorry. Okay? I know this is my fault. Well, I guess it is the devil’s too. And I know that you feel guilty because you didn’t tell belle we slept together. You were just trying to protect her, right?

Shawn: I– I was trying to protect myself. And I need to hold myself accountable for my actions.

Jan: Well, for what it’s worth, I am sorry. I don’t wish these problems on you.

Shawn: Okay, jan, just cut it out. Stop pretending that you care about my marriage, all right?

Jan: I care about you. And about bringing this baby into a warm, loving environment. But I guess for now it’s just going to be the two of us. I mean, the three of us.

Belle: Oh, you’re right. I’m not gonna solve any of my problems by running from them.

Eric: Trust me, you can’t get far enough. So, does this mean–?

Belle: It means I’m gonna go to mom’s and get my stuff and go home.

Eric: Yay! Proud of you. Listen, I’m here for you. Whatever you need.

Belle: Thank you. Oh, you always know what to say.

Eric: Not always.

Belle: You know, if you don’t want to deal with the whole nicole and rafe thing, you can come help me.

Eric: No, I need to take a little bit of my own advice and not bury my head in the sand. Listen, nicole and I, we’re divorced now. She’s moved on with her life and I need to move on with mine.

Ciara: Oh, wow. Look at this. It is official. My baby is going to be the best-dressed baby in all of salem. Oh, my god.

Allie: And he deserves it. I mean, after what you’ve been through, nothing but the best for this little miracle. And I bet he’s going to be showered with gifts too. I mean, what does your registry look like?

Ciara: Actually, I haven’t put much on my registry yet.

Allie: Oh, well, we can take care of that. We’ll go down to the square, I’ll walk you through it, we’ll spend the day together.

Ciara: Actually, thank you, that’s really sweet, but I’m still really worried about ben and I would just like to go to the garage and check up on him.

Allie: Check on what? I mean, you saw his note.

Ciara: Yeah, I know, and I know it seems silly, but maybe it’s the hormones. I don’t know, I just feel like I really, really need to see him right now. Can I have a raincheck?

Allie: Of course.

Ciara: Thank you. So much. For everything. You’re amazing. Mwah.

Demon allie: That ciara is a stubborn one, isn’t she? Looks like she’s not going to rest until she finds ben. So I guess I have to do something a little more drastic.

Ben: What if ciara thinks I just took off? What if she thinks I just left her and the baby?

Johnny: Why would she think that?

Ben: I don’t know, man! I don’t know! Maybe she thinks I’m getting cold feet about being a dad. Who knows what kind of poison that demon’s pouring into her ear right now!

Johnny: Ben, I already told you that is a waste of your time and energy.

Ben: We gotta do something, okay? The devil is after my wife and my baby, johnny!

Johnny: Look, I’m sorry, ben, I have tried everything.

Ben: This crypt, it’s on your family’s dimera property, right?

Johnny: Yeah.

Ben: Does anybody ever come back here?

Johnny: I mean, sometimes to pay their respects, honor my dead relatives.

Ben: Okay, and how often does that happen?

Johnny: I don’t know.

Ben: Well, think, johnny! I mean, when was the last time you came back here?

Johnny: Uh, I was– I came down here last halloween to scout locations for my movie. As it turns out, my grandpa john was actually locked up in here at the time.

Ben: But you didn’t find him?

Johnny: No, my grandma stopped me. I–I heard some voices nearby the other day. I tried yelling out, but–

Ben: But they didn’t hear you?

Johnny: No. I was pretty weak at the time, but–

Ben: Hello! Hey! Is anybody out there? Hello!

Johnny: I told you, you’re wasting your time!

Ben: Do you have a better idea?

Johnny: Hey! Hey! We’re in here!

Ben: Hello! Is anybody out there?

Johnny: Help us!

Ben: Help!

Trelegy for copd.

Shawn: Belle.

Belle: Hey, so I’ve been thinking about, well, everything and so I wanted to come home and talk–

Jan: I know I should be resting but I– belle. What a surprise.

Belle: I could say the same thing. What the hell is she doing here?

Jan: Haven’t you heard? I’m moving in.

Tripp: Hey. So how are you feeling? Did that drink do the trick?

Chanel: You know, I think it did. And now I’m hungry.

Tripp: You know what? Me too.

Chanel: Okay, well, I know a place where I can get you a discount on a ham and cheese croissant. No electrolytes, but very tasty.

Tripp: Okay. Well, lead the way.

Chanel: All right.

Ciara: Eric?

Eric: Ciara.

Ciara: Oh, my god! Hi! It is so good to see you.

Eric: You too. The both of you!

Ciara: Oh, yeah, I’m getting pretty big, aren’t I?

Eric: No, you look great! Oh, my god.

Ciara: Oh, thank you.

Eric: Hey, can I get you a menu?

Ciara: No, actually, I just stopped by looking for clyde.

Eric: Clyde? Why? Why?

Ciara: I was kind of hoping he could tell me where ben is.

Eric: Is there something wrong?

Ciara: Well, I hope not. I woke up this morning and ben was gone. He wrote me a note saying that he was work and I just drove by the garage and he’s nowhere to be found.

Allie: Evan frears, aka christian maddox. Big fan of your work.

Evan: Who in the hell are you?

Allie: Me? I’m your new best friend.

Evan: How do you figure?

Demon: Because I’m about to offer you the chance of a lifetime. How’d you like to get revenge on ben weston?

Evan: Okay. Now you have my attention.

Allie: Awesome. You and i have so much to talk about.

Ben: Hello?

Johnny: Somebody, help us, please!

Ben: Hello! Johnny, you said yourself sooner or later somebody’s going to walk by here. Hello!

Johnny: It’s no use.

Ben: Is anybody there?

Johnny: It’s no use.

[Banging] Wait a second. Do you hear that? Somebody’s outside! We’re saved!

Allie: You know, evan– can I call you evan? I’m just not a big fan of “christian.”

Evan: Call me whatever you want.

Allie: Great. See, we’re getting along already. I knew we’d be pals.

Evan: And why’s that?

Allie: Because we have so much in common. For instance, I heard you play for both teams, so to speak. I, myself, have recently begun exploring the wonderful world of bisexuality.

Evan: Just get to the part where you help me get revenge on ben weston.

Allie: I was getting to that. You see, that’s the other thing we have in common. I know you hate him.

Evan: He’s the reason I’m in here. The reason I lost everything.

Allie: I know all about that. How he ruined your plans by rescuing ciara. If that pesky ceiling hadn’t fallen on you, you’d be out there living your best life. But instead, you’re stuck in here, while ben and ciara are happily married.

Evan: I’ve heard.

Allie: Well, now ben is getting in my way. And I just can’t have that. So that’s where you come in.

Phyllis: Hey, what are you doing here?

Amanda: Hello. I have a chipped nail. I was hoping that one of your wonderful manicurists can repair it for me.

Phyllis: Oh, definitely, definitely.

Amanda: Thank you.

Phyllis: We’ll make room for you. It’s been a while.

Amanda: Yeah, it has been. Work has been keeping me pretty busy. Turns out that merging two large corporations is quite challenging from a legal standpoint. Who’d have known?

Phyllis: And all the personalities involved — ooh, that can be complicated, right?

Amanda: Surprisingly, no. Lily and devon, they agree on most of the important things, and nate, he is excited to join the family business, and I’m thrilled, too, because I get to work with imani and it feels like a family business for me, too.

Phyllis: So no complications, everybody’s happy?

Amanda: Yeah.

Phyllis: Good for you. Wow, I’d like for once to not experience family drama like that.

Amanda: Okay, I’ll bite. Is this about the newmans, the abbotts, or none of the above?

Phyllis: It’s the abbotts this time. Jack.

Kyle: Dad, this is impossible. I know you wouldn’t lie or joke about something like this, but my mother isn’t alive. She was murdered, for god’s sakes.

Jack: I understand that you’re shocked by this. I was every bit as stunned as you are.

Kyle: No, no, no, whatever you were told, it can’t be true. I…I vividly remember her funeral. We — we…we buried her. It was heartbreaking.

Jack: Diane wasn’t in the coffin. If I had known that, I could have spared you so much pain.

Kyle: Okay, okay, okay. If…if she is alive…where has she been all these years? Was she held against her will by — by — by one of the people that wanted her dead?

Jack: No. No, we all thought she was dead because that’s what she wanted us to think. Your mother faked this entire thing, and she has been staying away by choice.

Diane: [ Groans ] Look at me. All cooped up in here like a prisoner in a gilded cage. Oh! I’m going insane. Okay, okay. I’ve got to get out of here. There’s no harm in me taking a walk and grabbing a cup of coffee, is there?

Mariah: Um, do you — do you want to invite your roadies to the wedding?

Tessa: Huh?

Mariah: From your — from your tour. Do — do you invite them?

Tessa: Uh…I don’t know. What’s our head count?

Mariah: I don’t remember.

Elena: Hey.

Mariah: Hi.

Elena: I just heard the horrible news. I’m so sorry.

Mariah: Yeah, thank you. Yeah, we are still shell-shocked, obviously.

Elena: How’s sharon holding up?

Mariah: I honestly wish i could answer that, I just — i don’t know. You know, she’s trying to stay in control, and she’s putting on this whole façade. And I’m just scared it’s gonna come crashing down.

Sharon: Where did I leave that wedding-planning folder?

Jack: I know this is hard to comprehend.

Kyle: What has my mother been doing all this time?

Jack: That is a long and complicated story.

Kyle: Okay, well, let’s start with the highlights, like why did she pretend to be dead?

[ Knock on door ] Don’t tell me. Is that her?

Jack: It damn well better not be. Your heart is at the heart of everything you do.

Amanda: You know, every time I talk to you, your mind always seems to be on jack. Okay, so what’s going on? What’s going on with him and his family?

Phyllis: I can’t tell you. And it’s so complicated and it’s so personal. Kyle’s in town.

Amanda: Okay, well, that’s good, right?

Phyllis: It’s not good. The reason he’s in town is because jack needs to tell him some big news.

Amanda: Does this have anything to do with the son who passed away?

Phyllis: That’s how it started, yeah.

[ Sighs ] Amanda, there’s a person in town from kyle’s past… from our past. This person can create so much danger for kyle, for jack, for so many people in this town.

Amanda: Including you?

Jack: Ashland, um…come in.

Ashland: Hello, kyle. I’m sorry to just show up like this. In fact, I ran into phyllis earlier, and she said I should wait until you reach out to me, and I know that harrison’s probably very tired from the trip, but, um, on the off chance that he’s awake, I would love to see him.

Kyle: Uh…are — are you alright? What happened?

Ashland: Um…

Rey: What we have is more than just physical attraction. I meant what I said before. I love you.

[ Sighs ] I have lived with lies for way too many years. So please just — just tell me. Do you feel the same way?

Sharon: You know that I do.

Rey: I need to hear it.

Sharon: I love you, too.

Rey: Ha ha! You got it? You got it?

Sharon: I got it.

Rey: Whoo! There we go.

Sharon: Whoo!

[ Chuckles ]

Rey: Happy new year, mrs. Rosales.

Rey: Well, it feels like we haven’t traveled more than a couple feet since our wedding, since it happened right over there.

Sharon: Yeah, that was a magical night.

Rey: It was. And our love grows stronger with each passing day.

Sharon: I agree. And I have very high hopes for 2022, also.

Rey: Mm, I don’t know, i can’t imagine being happier than I am right now.

Noah: Mom? Mom.

Sharon: Oh. Oh, noah, I thought I was home alone.

Noah: I was up in my room.

Nick: Everything alright?

Sharon: No, no, everything’s definitely not alright. Faith, what are you doing out of school?

Elena: Oh, my heart goes out to sharon. I can’t even imagine how difficult this must be for her.

Mariah: Yeah, I mean, it’S… it’s just crazy, you know. I keep looking over there, expecting him to walk through those doors like he always does. And he was such a rock. And not just for my mom, but for the whole family. And now my mom feels like she has to be that rock…and that that’s what rey would expect of her, and he wouldn’t want her falling apart, so…

Elena: He was such a pillar and protector of this entire community. Everyone’s devastated by his loss. I’m sorry, am I interrupting your wedding planning?

Mariah: Oh, no, um…we’re just waiting for my mom before we get too deep into our preparations.

Elena: Are you guys still going forward in spite of everything?

Tessa: Sharon’s insisting on it.

Elena: I mean, I could see where she’s coming from. I think we all need a little happiness to focus on and a reminder that life still goes on.

Tessa: Where’s justin?

Mariah: I — I don’t know. Things have been so crazy around here. I’ll go handle it. Hi, sorry to keep you waiting. What can I do for you? I’m steve.

Phyllis: This person who’s in town is not a match for me. She knows it.

Amanda: Oh. So this mysterious individual is a woman.

Phyllis: Mm-hmm.

Amanda: Is it jack’s ex?

Phyllis: Among other things, yes.

Amanda: So are you concerned that she might want to get back together with him?

Phyllis: No, because that would never happen. Jack gets it, and if she even tried, I would take her out.

Amanda: Because you’re trying to protect your good friend jack. It has nothing to do with your hopes that you two might find your way back to each other.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] I’ve told you a million times that there’s nothing going on between me and jack. I mean, it is strictly platonic.

Amanda: Okay, then why? Why are you so concerned that this woman is back in his life?

Ashland: Oh, my! Look at how big you are. How did you get to be so big?

Harrison: Father, you have two big ouchies.

Ashland: Yes, I do. I burned my hand and I hurt my foot in an accident, but I’m gonna be okay.

[ Chuckles ] Um…I’m sorry, I don’t know if this is appropriate, but would it be possible for me to, um… maybe take him to the park for a few minutes or just a bite to eat?

Jack: I think that’s a lovely idea. I’m sure the two of you could use some time together, and kyle and I have our own catching up we need to do.

Kyle: Yeah. Okay, harrison, um…hey. Be a good boy, okay? Alright. I’ll see you in a bit.

[ Chuckles ]

Ashland: Take my hand. Come on, here we go. Kyle. Thank you. Come on, let’s go. Here we go.

Kyle: I know I’m new to being a dad, and every day is a learning experience. But…even though I’ve only been a parent for a short while, i still have a hard time saying goodbye to my son for any length of time. So, dad, tell me, how is it my mother disappeared all those years?

Mariah: I’m so sorry for the delay. We had a death in the family, so everything’s been a little disrupted.

Diane: I’m so sorry to hear that. What — what happened?

Mariah: A car accident.

Diane: Really? Was it one of the owners? Or who — who owns this place anyway?

Mariah: Sharon rosales. It was her husband.

Diane: Did she used to go by sharon newman?

Mariah: Uh, yeah, she did. Have I seen you in here before?

Diane: Um…it’s — it’s — it’s been a while.

Mariah: Okay.

Diane: Thanks. Ohh.

Faith: I’m sorry, mom. I didn’t mean to upset you. Sitting through school was just too tough.

Nick: The principal said it’d be okay if she skipped the rest of the day. I didn’t think it’d be a problem.

Sharon: Oh, I’m so sorry you had to go through that. You know, this has been a really tough time for everyone, but you’ve missed so much school this past year already.

Faith: It’s fine, mom. I’m a second-semester senior. I’m just waiting for my college acceptance letters to start coming in. The rest of the year is basically coasting. But today, I just want to be with my family.

Sharon: I understand. You’re right. Sometimes family is more important than anything. And rey knew that more than anyone.

[ Sighs ] I’m just so grateful that you’re all here with me. It means everything.

Nick: We are all here for you.

Noah: And for each other.

With age comes more…

Noah: Mom, I know you didn’t get much sleep last night, so why don’t you just relax today? Take a nap. We can handle things at the coffee house.

Faith: Yeah, we’ll even have dinner ready for when you get up.

Sharon: No, no, that’s not necessary. Um…besides, I have to meet with mariah and tessa there about wedding plans. I just want to make sure they’re not hedging on the date.

Noah: You don’t have to worry about that. I know for a fact they’re pretty determined to move forward now, so there’s really no need for you to check on them.

Sharon: No, that’s actually all the more reason why I do need to take the meeting, because we’ve got a lot to plan in a little time, and, yeah, if we want to put this wedding together, it’s less than a month.

Nick: Well, I can drive you.

Sharon: Oh, thank you, but that’s alright. Think I can manage myself.

Nick: Well, actually, mariah asked me to stop by the coffee house too. She wanted to talk to me about something regarding the wedding. Do any of you know what that’s about?

Jack: Kyle, I’m trying very hard to answer your questions without letting my personal feelings get in the way. But it’s not easy because i think you deserve to know the truth.

Kyle: I do. That’s right, and I am counting on you to be straight with me.

Jack: Diane claims she conceived this entire deception to get away from the bad things she had done to seemingly everyone in this town.

Kyle: That makes no sense. Does she not think letting her son believe his mother was dead was a bad thing? And not just dead, murdered.

Jack: She claims that she hit a horribly low point, and she saw no way out but to start fresh, to start over.

Kyle: So why come back now? Hmm? Why leave her fabulous, fresh new life for the son she… literally ghosted all those years ago?

Jack: She claims it took her all these years to finally feel that she was ready to face what she had done.

Kyle: I missed her so much. All this time without her. All these memories that I wanted to share with her, and — and I find out she could’ve been there. And you’re telling me she chose not to, and suddenly she wants to make up for lost time?

Jack: Kyle, I wish there was something I could say to take away all this pain.

Kyle: I can’t even begin to process my emotions yet, so let’s just — let’s just stick to the facts, dad. Tell me exactly what happened. She, what, anonymously lured… she lured you to finding out about keemo’s death and his daughter as a — an olive branch? No. The hope that she might get a shot at forgiveness?

Jack: Her method was devious, yes, that’s typical diane. But the truth is, if she had come to me directly, I would have shut her down instantly. No, she waited till allie and i were together to reveal that she was the person that orchestrated this entire thing.

Kyle: And she did all this to what? To soften you up so you could smooth the way to get to me? Was that the idea, dad?

Jack: Yeah. I’m supposed to help the two of you reunite. But, kyle, you are under no obligation to accept her overture. You don’t have to do anything. You can take harrison and get right back on that jet and go back to your wonderful life in milan.

Kyle: Yeah. You know, part of me wishes you never even told me.

Jack: Kyle, that was my first instinct. But phyllis helped me realize it’s not my call, and she’s right. This is up to you, son.

Phyllis: My concerns with this woman have very, very little to do with her being jack’s ex.

Amanda: Well, then what is the problem? Why is she a threat to him?

Phyllis: Because…I know her. And I know what she does. She takes somebody’s weaknesses, their vulnerabilities, and she ma– I don’t want to talk your ear off. Come on, let’s go. I’ll set you up in the salon, and do your manicure.

Amanda: I would love to keep listening.

Phyllis: No, you’ve been such a good friend. We’ll talk later, okay? I don’t want to talk your ear off. Just go relax, have fun.

Amanda: Okay. Alright, thank you.

Phyllis: No, thank you.

Diane: Thank you.

Phyllis: What are you doing out of your room? We had an understanding.

Elena: Sharon, my heart broke when I heard the news. Rey was a wonderful man.

Sharon: He really was.

Elena: You know, when lola and I were roommates, he would always stop by the apartment to fix things and always with a smile. I think that’s what I’ll remember about him most.

Sharon: Me too.

Elena: Yeah, you know, if you ever need anything at all, even just to talk, please don’t hesitate.

Sharon: Thanks.

Elena: Okay, well, I’m gonna head to work, but promise me you’ll reach out if you need to.

Sharon: I will. Okay. So where do things stand with the wedding?

Mariah: Mom, do you really want to talk about all of this right now?

Tessa: We totally understand if you just want to wait a day or two.

Sharon: Would you please stop babying me? I don’t know how many times i have to tell you, I need this. What more do I have to do to convince you? (Cyclist) why is ice t in a speed walking crew?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Mariah: Mom, we’re sorry.

Tessa: We were just trying to be sensitive.

Mariah: And we can’t help but be worried about you.

Sharon: Look, um…I’ll probably be up and down and all over the place these next few weeks. I don’t know when or if the grief and the shock is gonna bulldoze over me. But I can’t sit around, worrying about it. I — I have a life to lead. There are people who count on me. I have things to do, you know? I’ve got errands and order paper towels. I…I… I really need to grab on to whatever I can to stay afloat, and your wedding is just one of those life rafts. So please don’t take that away from me.

Mariah: Yeah, we get it. We really do, and this wedding is gonna be the perfect port in this storm, so, you know, let’s just move forward and no more interruptions or hesitations, okay?

Tessa: Yeah, okay, let’s make this wedding happen.

Mariah: Yeah.

Nick: Yep, I’m all in.

Sharon: Great. What’s next on the agenda?

Tessa: Well, I think I know where to start, and it’s a — it’s a pretty big ask.

Kyle: I need to phone summer before I make any decisions.

Jack: I completely understand.

Kyle: [ Sighs ] Where is my mother now? Is she here in town?

Jack: Unfortunately, yes. I asked her to keep her distance, but in classic diane fashion, she rejected my wish and flew to genoa city and now has a suite at the grand phoenix.

Kyle: Why? Why would she do that?

Jack: She claims she wanted to be close so that she could make her own case in the event that you took off for italy without meeting with her. I guess I should be grateful that she didn’t jump the gun and tell you herself. At least she let me break the news.

Kyle: You know, for years, years, I heard the whispers and rumors about my mother. And some people came right out and trashed her to my face. But in spite of all that, i still tried to believe the best in her. My recollections of her, they’re all loving and fun. For years, it was just the two of us. She used to call me her little hero.

Jack: I’m glad that you were able to hold on to those positive memories.

Kyle: She was a good mom. Always cheering me on in hockey and life. But a good person doesn’t deliberately put their own son through hell. Dad, be honest with me. Is there anything that I don’t know about my mother? Have you told me everything?

Jack: Kyle, the last thing i ever wanted to do was destroy your love for your mother. I thought it best that you always see the good in her, that it would somehow ease the pain of losing your mother at such a young age. And, yes, there are probably many things that you don’t know about her, and you don’t need to know.

Kyle: Well, I read that exposé about her in

restless style all those years ago.

Jack: Kyle, you were a child. And the magazine didn’t cover all of it. She did unforgivable things long after that was published. But now she says there is a reason she did all of those things. And she wants a chance to explain them to you, if you’ll just hear her out.

Kyle: Is she really as bad as so many people think?

Jack: The simple answer is yes. And I struggle to believe that she has transformed herself quite as dramatically as she says. Son, I wish you were not going through this. A part of wishes that she had just stayed dead. It would’ve been easier for all of us, and you could’ve held on to the few good memories you have. But she’s not dead, kyle. She’s here. And she’s not gonna let this go. So you have to decide one way or the other.

Phyllis: I thought jack and i seared into your brain that leaving the room was a bad idea.

Diane: Just leave me alone, phyllis. I don’t want to talk about any of this. I just want to go up to my suite.

Phyllis: Why are you so rattled? Who did you see?

Diane: No one recognized me. I saw nothing but a bunch of old memories.

Phyllis: Oh, visions from your past, maybe one of the suspects who tried to murder you? You know, I have a great idea. Why don’t you reconsider being dead? How ’bout that? Reconsider being dead. – Look, this isn’t my first rodeo,

Faith: I can’t believe rey is gone. Why did this have to happen?

Noah: Hey. Life can be really unfair sometimes.

Faith: I’m so glad you’re here with us. We all need you. Especially mom. I don’t know why she’s pushing so hard and rushing things. We all know how hurt she must be inside. I mean, why won’t she just let it all out?

Noah: Maybe she just needs to keep busy right now. You know, I don’t think she wants us to see her broken down, so that’s her choice to make.

Faith: But we all want to help her.

Noah: I know. But it’s her pain. And she has to feel it and express it however she needs to. And if this is what gets her through the next few weeks, who’s to say it’s not right?

Faith: Yeah.

Tessa: Sharon, I know you and I haven’t always seen eye-to-eye on everything.

Sharon: Well, that’s all ancient history now. We’ve gotten far beyond that.

Tessa: Absolutely. We’ve done so much more than move past our issues. We’ve actually bonded, and you’ve become a true friend and a source of support for me.

Sharon: I feel the same way.

Tessa: Well, I’m really glad to hear you say that because, as much as I would love crystal to be my maid of honor, her legal issues might prevent her from even coming to the wedding, and my family’s out of the picture. So I was wondering if you would stand in for my family and walk me down the aisle.

Sharon: Of course. I’d be honored. And as far as I’m concerned, you are already family.

Jack: Well, I have an update.

Phyllis: Okay. I can tell by your face you told kyle.

Jack: Kyle knows the truth, or as much of the truth as diane deigned to share with us.

Phyllis: Okay. Well, I’m glad you got to him. It was almost too late.

Jack: What do you mean?

Phyllis: Diane snuck out of her room again.

Jack: Oh, god, that woman is shameless.

Phyllis: Don’t worry about it. I took care of it. But she doesn’t that kyle is in town. We’re just buying time now.

Jack: It doesn’t matter what we say to her, what we do to her, she’s always gonna be a wild card.

Phyllis: Unless…

Jack: Unless what?

Phyllis: Unless kyle decided not to see his mother. I mean, what did he say? How did he take the news?

Jack: He was completely blind-sided and hurt by the whole thing.

Phyllis: Okay, what do you think he’s gonna do?

Kyle: Hi, summer. Um…given the time difference, you’re probably wrapping up your dinner meeting. Uh…hey, there’s something i need to talk to you about. Can you call me back when you’re free? Love you.

Traci: Kyle? Kyle, honey, oh.

Kyle: Aunt traci, hi.

Traci: Hello! Oh, I’m so glad to see you. Your dad said you were coming home, but I didn’t know you were here already. Um…so the two of you have talked?

Kyle: I’m still reeling from what he told me.

Traci: We’re all in shock by the news of diane and, um…

Kyle: I’m not sure how to process it all.

Traci: Alright, well, usually, when there’s a problem you need to face, it’s a good idea to maybe talk it through with someone you trust.

Kyle: I tried calling summer and got her voicemail.

Traci: Oh. [ Chuckles ] Well, I could be a close second, you know? You can always tell me anything.

Kyle: I don’t even know where to begin.

And it’s easier than ever to get

your projects done right .

Sharon: Just think how proud I’ll be with my beautiful daughter and daughter-in-law on my arm.

Mariah: Well, I love you, but I actually had another idea. So, nick…I know that you’re not actually my dad, but you’ve been an amazing person in my life, and you’ve loved me like a daughter. And I know what an amazing father you were to my sister, so I was hoping that you could do for me what you couldn’t do for her. So would you walk me down the aisle?

Nick: I’d be honored to do that.

Mariah: [ Laughs ]

Jack: To tell you the truth, I don’t know which way kyle’s gonna go where his mother’s concerned. He needs to absorb this, he needs time to think it through, to talk to summer.

Phyllis: Right, well, at least he’s not running into his mother’s open arms, and that’s good. He’s smart.

Jack: I can’t just overlook the fact that he — he did love her very much. He knew she had issues, but he still thought the world of her. That’s why I tried so hard to protect him from so much of the truth.

Phyllis: Do you regret that now?

Jack: Yeah, I don’t know. Maybe I protected him for too long. I always wanted him to be able to hold onto his cherished memories of his mother at her best, not spend his whole life haunted by her crimes. Today, kyle came right out and asked me if his mother was — is — as bad as everyone said, and, god help me, I could not bring myself to condemn her completely in his eyes.

Phyllis: Alright, well, you didn’t want to pile it on. I understand that. It won’t matter, jack. When everyone in town realizes, “hey, she’s still alive,” they’ll think she’s more wretched than they thought before. That she faked her own death? If she wants absolution, she’s never gonna get it.

Jack: I really don’t care how everyone else is going to react. Right now, I care what this is going to do to kyle.

Traci: Diane’s behavior has been outrageous and cruel. And as a mother, I can’t imagine walking away from your precious child like that.

Kyle: No way in hell I’d ever do that to harrison.

Traci: No, of course not. So I guess the big question is, setting all of that aside, now that you know that she’s alive, do you want to see her?

Kyle: Part of me never wants to see her face again. And then, on the other hand, I remember her being this incredible mom to me. But there’s still so much about her that I don’t know, and she’s this complicated person and i can’t seem to get past the biggest question of all.

Traci: What’s that, honey?

Kyle: How could she let me believe she was dead? I don’t know, aunt traci. What am I gonna do?

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Y&R Update Wednesday April 27 2022

Young & The Restless Update

Y&R logo

Recap written by Christine

Kyle and Jack were at the Abbott house. While Kyle knew Jack wouldn’t lie or joke about this, he was also just as certain that his mother was dead. Murdered. He had vivid memories of the heartbreaking funeral. Jack said Diane wasn’t in the coffin – he wished he’d known so he could’ve spared Kyle the pain. Kyle became open to the idea of Diane being alive, and he asked if she’d been held captive by one of the people who wanted her dead. Jack explained that Diane faked her death and stayed away by choice. Kyle asked what his mother had been doing all this time. The doorbell rang, and Kyle asked if it was Diane. Jack said it better not be. It was Ashland. He was sorry to show up like this, and Phyllis told him to wait until Kyle reached out. However, he’d love to see Harrison. Kyle saw Ashland’s medical boot and bandaged hand and asked if he was okay.

Harrison entered and hugged Ashland. “Father, you have two big ouchies,” Harrison observed. Ashland said he was in an accident, but he’d be okay. Ashland started crying, and he asked if he could take Harrison on a short outing. Jack thought that was a lovely idea, since he also needed some time with Kyle. Kyle told Harrison to be good, and Ashland took the boy and left. Kyle said he was new to parenthood, but he had a hard time saying goodbye to his son for any length of time. He asked how his mother disappeared all those years.

Jack was trying hard to answer Kyle’s questions without letting his personal feelings get in the way, but it was hard because he felt Kyle deserved the truth. Kyle said he was counting on Jack to be straight with him. Jack said Diane claimed she concocted this plan to get away from the bad things she’d done to nearly everyone in town. Kyle didn’t think that made sense. He asked if she didn’t think it was bad to let her son think she was murdered. Jack explained that Diane said she hit a low point and saw no way out but to start fresh. Kyle asked why Diane left her new life to reach out to the son she literally ghosted. Jack said Diane claimed it took her all these years to finally face what she was done. Kyle had missed Diane so much – there had been so many things he’d wanted to share with her, and now he found out she could’ve been there, and she chose not to, and now she was back and wanting to reconnect. Jack wished he could take away Kyle’s pain. Kyle couldn’t process his emotions now. He wanted to just stick to the facts.

Kyle was disgusted that Diane anonymously lured Jack into finding about Keemo’s death and his daughter as an olive branch. Jack said Diane’s methods were devious, which was typical for her, but in truth, if she’d just come to Jack directly, he would’ve shut her down instantly. Diane had waited until Jack was with Allie to reveal herself. Kyle was near tears over Diane. Jack said that Kyle could take Harrison and go back to Milan – he was under no obligation to see Diane. Part of Kyle wished Jack never told him. Jack said that was his first instinct, but Phyllis helped him realize this wasn’t his call. Kyle needed to phone Summer before he made any decisions.

Kyle asked where his mother was. Jack said he’d told Diane to keep her distance, but in classic Diane fashion, she moved to Genoa City. Kyle was dismayed and asked why. Jack said Diane claimed she wanted to be close so she could make her own claim on the chance that Kyle left for Milan without seeing her. Jack guessed he should be grateful that Diane let him be the one to break the news to Kyle. Kyle said that he’d heard the whispers about his mother for years. Some people trashed her to his face. Despite that, he still tried to believe the best of his mother. All his memories of his mom were loving and fun. For years it was just the two of them, and she used to call him her little hero. Jack was glad Kyle had good memories. Kyle said Diane was a good mom, but a good person didn’t deliberately put their son through hell. Kyle asked if there were things about his mother that he didn’t know. Jack never wanted to destroy Kyle’s love for his mother – he’d thought it best that Kyle always saw the good in Diane. Jack said there were things Kyle probably didn’t know, and he didn’t need to. Kyle remembered reading the Restless Style article about Diane. Jack said Kyle was a child back then, and Diane did several unforgivable things long after that article was published. Jack said Diane was saying there was a reason she did those things, and she wanted Kyle to hear her out. Kyle asked if Diane was as bad as people said. “The simple answer is yes,” Jack stated. Jack had a hard time believing Diane had truly had this dramatic transformation. Jack wished Kyle didn’t have to go through this. Part of Jack wished Diane had just stayed dead, so Kyle could’ve held onto the few good memories he had, but she wasn’t dead, and she wasn’t going to let this go.

Diane paced around her suite and said she was cooped up like a prisoner in a gilded cage. She grabbed her hat and sunglasses and left.

At Crimson Lights, Mariah asked if Tessa wanted to invite her roadies to the wedding. Tessa didn’t know. It was clear their minds were elsewhere. Elena came in and hugged Mariah and asked about Sharon. Mariah said Sharon was putting up a facade that Mariah worried was going to come crashing down. Mariah kept expecting Rey to walk into Crimson Lights. He’d been a rock for the whole family, and now Sharon thought she needed to be that rock. Elena said Rey was a protector of the entire community, and everyone was devastated by his loss. Elena noticed the wedding planning stuff. Tessa said Sharon wanted it to go forward. Elena understood. She thought everyone could use a celebration and a reminder that life went on.

Diane walked into the coffeehouse, and there was no barista there, so Mariah served her. Mariah explained that things were a little out of order because there was a death in the family. Diane asked who died and who owned the place. Mariah said it was Sharon Rosales’ husband. Diane asked if she was once known as Sharon Newman, and Mariah said yes. Mariah asked if she’d seen Diane here before. Diane said it had been awhile. She took her coffee over to the sugar and cream station, then for some reason, she got shaken up and rushed out.

Amanda went to The Grand Phoenix for a manicure to repair a chipped nail. Phyllis noted that it’d been awhile. Amanda said the merger was keeping her busy. It was challenging from a legal standpoint. Phyllis assumed managing the different personalities was also a challenge, but Amanda said that Lily and Devon agreed on most of the important things. Nate was excited to join the family business, and Amanda was thrilled she got to work with Devon, so it felt like a family business to her too. Phyllis wished she wasn’t dealing with family drama. It was about Jack. Amanda said every time she talked to Phyllis, her mind seemed to be on Jack. She asked what was going on. Phyllis couldn’t say. She stated that there was a person in town who could create so much danger for Kyle, Jack and so many others in town.

Amanda surmised that this person was a danger to Phyllis too. Phyllis said this person knew she was no match for Phyllis. Amanda asked if it was Jack’s ex, and Phyllis said yes, among other things. Amanda asked if Phyllis was concerned this ex would want Jack back. Phyllis said Jack would never do that, and if this woman tried, Phyllis would take her out. Amanda suggested Phyllis wanted Jack for herself. Phyllis reiterated that she and Jack were platonic, and she noted that she’d already told Amanda this a million times. Amanda asked why Phyllis was so concerned about his ex’s return. Phyllis’s concerns had very little to do with the fact that this was Jack’s ex. She said this woman took people’s weaknesses and manipulated them. Phyllis noticed Diane walk back in, and she hurried Amanda off to the manicurist. Once they were alone, Phyllis confronted Diane about leaving her room.

Diane didn’t want to talk. She just wanted to go back to her suite. Phyllis asked why Diane was so rattled – who did she see? Diane said no one recognized her. She saw nothing but a bunch of old memories. She got into the elevator. “Reconsider being dead!,” Phyllis spat at the closing doors. Jack showed up and told Phyllis that Kyle knew the truth. Phyllis revealed that Diane snuck out of her room again. Jack said it didn’t matter what they said or did to Diane – she would always be a wildcard. Phyllis asked what Jack thought Kyle would do. He didn’t know. Phyllis was pleased that Kyle wasn’t just running into Diane’s open arms. “He did love her very much. He knew she had issues, but he still thought the world of her,” Jack said. He wondered if he protected Kyle from the truth about Diane for too long. Jack had wanted Kyle to hold onto the cherished memories of his mother, not spend his whole life haunted by her crimes. Jack said Kyle asked if Diane was as bad as everyone said, and Jack hadn’t been able to bring himself to condemn her completely. Phyllis said that once everyone in town found out Diane was alive, they’d think she was even more wretched than before. Jack didn’t care about how everyone else would react – he only cared about Kyle.

Kyle went to Society and he called Summer and left her a message. He didn’t go into detail. He assumed she was still at her dinner meeting. Traci ran into him, and they hugged. He told his aunt he was having a hard time processing things. She said that talking to someone you trust could help. He called Summer, but she didn’t answer. Traci offered to fill in. Traci said Diane’s behavior had been outrageous and cruel. As a mother, Traci couldn’t imagine walking away from your precious child. Kyle said he’d never do that to Harrison. Part of Kyle never wanted to see Diane again, but on the other hand, he remembered her being an incredible mom to him. There was so much about Diane that Kyle didn’t know. He didn’t understand how she let him believe she was dead. He didn’t know what to do.

Sharon was at the cottage, which was filled with sympathy baskets and flowers. She was looking for the wedding planning folder, and she found a post-it from Rey saying he’d bought more paper towels. She started crying. She flashed back to the early days with Rey. He’d told her he loved her, and he asked if she felt the same way. She said she loved him too. She remembered their wedding night and their first anniversary. Sharon had told Rey she had high hopes for 2022, and Rey said he couldn’t imagine being happier. Noah came downstairs at the same time Faith and Nick came in.

Sharon admitted she thought she was alone. She demanded to know what Faith was doing out of school. Faith was sorry to upset Sharon, but school was rough, so she asked to leave. Nick added that the principal said it was okay. Sharon softened. She was sorry Faith had to go through that. Sharon noted that Faith already missed a lot of school this past year, though. Faith said she was a second semester senior who already applied to college, so the rest of the school year was basically coasting. She just wanted to be with her family. Sharon agreed and said sometimes family was more important than anything, which Rey knew. Sharon was grateful they were all here with her.

Noah suggested Sharon nap while they handled the coffeehouse and dinner. Sharon had plans with Mariah and Tessa. She wanted to make sure they wouldn’t postpone. Noah knew they were moving ahead as planned. Sharon said that was all the more reason for her to go, since they had a lot of things to get done in a short amount of time. The wedding was less than a month away. Sharon was going to go to Crimson Lights alone, but Nick needed to go too because Mariah had something she wanted to ask him.

Elena gave Sharon her condolences on Rey. When she and Lola were roommates, Rey used to stop by the apartment and fix things, and he was always smiling. Elena would remember that. She offered to be there if Sharon needed anything. Sharon said thanks, and Elena left for work. Sharon wanted to get to the wedding. Mariah and Tessa suggested Sharon might want to take a couple days off planning. “Please stop babying me,” Sharon stated. Sharon didn’t know how many times she had to tell them that she needed this. Mariah and Tessa were apologetic, but they were worried about Sharon. Sharon said she’d probably be up and down over the next few weeks. She didn’t know when the grief and shock would bulldoze over her, but she couldn’t sit and wait for it. She had to grab onto what she could do stay afloat, and the wedding was a life raft. She asked him not to take that from her. Mariah said she and Tessa understood, and they’d move forward without reservations.

Tessa knew she and Sharon hadn’t always seen eye to eye. Sharon said that was ancient history. Tessa said that she and Sharon had become true friends and a source of support. Sharon felt the same way. Tessa wished her sister, Crystal could be her maid of honor, but she had legal issues that meant she couldn’t come back to the US. Tessa’s family wasn’t in the picture, so she was wondering if Sharon would walk her down the aisle. Sharon said she’d be honored. Sharon said Tessa was already family. Sharon would be proud to walk down the aisle with her beautiful daughter and daughter in law on her arm. Mariah loved Sharon, but she had another idea. Mariah knew Nick wasn’t her dad, but he’d been an amazing person in her life, and he loved her like a daughter. She knew he’d been an amazing father to her twin. She was hoping he’d do for her what he couldn’t do for Cassie. She asked him to walk her down the aisle. He said he’d be honored, and they hugged.

Back at the cottage, Faith and Noah looked at pictures of Rey, and she cried. Faith was glad Noah was there. Faith didn’t understand why Sharon was rushing things instead of just letting it all out. Noah didn’t think Sharon wanted them to see her break down. Faith said they all wanted to help. Noah knew, but Sharon got to deal with her pain the way she wanted.

Recap written by Christine

At the Abbott house, Kyle sent Harrison into the kitchen for some of Mrs. Martinez’s cookies. He wondered why Jack had him come to town.

“What the hell makes you think you can show your face in Genoa City after the devastation you have caused,” Nikki asked Diane. Jack and Phyllis were also in Diane’s suite, watching the confrontation. Nikki said she’d been charged with murder, which she was sure thrilled Diane. Diane said she didn’t enjoy any part of this. Diane had assumed Jack had explained her intentions for returning. Jack said he had no interest in making excuses for Diane. Diane said she’d been desperate, and she knew she had to run. Nikki asked why Diane didn’t just go without faking her death. Diane said she’d crossed some very powerful people, and she was afraid they wouldn’t leave her alone. Diane wasn’t thinking rationally, and she’d boxed herself into a corner. “If you had to play dead, you could’ve had the courtesy to stay that way,” Nikki spat.

Diane understood how Nikki felt. Nikki didn’t believe that. Nikki said Diane’s “death” set off a chain of events that wreaked havoc in the Newman family. Nikki and Victor had faced legal charges. Diane noted that the charges were dropped. Nikki assumed Diane was disappointed Nikki and Victor didn’t get life sentences. Nikki said she and Victor suffered – it had been agonizing. Nikki added that Diane’s partner in crime, Deacon, took full advantage of that. Phyllis asked if it was Diane’s idea for Deacon to blackmail Nikki for a murder she didn’t commit. Diane said she’d been a wreck, and she had no control over what was happening in Genoa City. Nikki argued that Diane could’ve come forward and revealed she was alive.

Jack got a text and told Phyllis that he had a meeting. She realized he was alluding to Kyle’s arrival. Jack wanted to take Nikki out of the room, but she insisted on staying. “It’s not like Nikki can be charged with the same murder twice,” Phyllis said. Phyllis grabbed a lamp on her way out of the room, to prevent Nikki from using it to bludgeon Diane. Jack and Phyllis left. Diane was relieved to have a chance to explain what she did and try to make amends. Diane was sure Nikki could relate. Nikki didn’t want to be compared to Diane. Diane said Nikki had changed – back then, she was drinking and violent. Nikki said when she attacked Diane, she was acting in self defense. “So was I, and that’s what you need to understand. I was scared and I was trying to protect myself,” Diane said. Deacon offered Diane an escape route, and she took it. Diane figured Deacon had his own reasons for what he did, probably involving his twisted relationship with Nikki. Nikki said she and Deacon did not have a relationship. She hadn’t thought of him in years. Diane said Deacon gave her a way out, and she was going to repay him by making the most of her life and not making the same mistakes. Nikki didn’t believe a word of that. She said Diane was still the same conniving little bitch she always was, and an apology wasn’t going to cut it, because everyone in town saw through her.

Nikki supposed she understood Jack allowing Diane to reach out to Kyle. She noted that Diane was Kyle’s mother, unfortunately for him. Nikki didn’t want Diane anywhere near her loved ones – she told Diane to stay away from Victor, Victoria and especially Nicholas. Diane said to relax – she had no designs on Nikki’s husband and son. Nikki thought Diane should stay away from Adam too. Nikki was sure people would hate Diane even more now. Diane didn’t think everyone was as unforgiving as Nikki. Nikki said that Diane would find no redemption here. “As much trouble as your murder caused me and my family, we were so relieved to finally have you out of our lives. No one has ever wanted you here, and no one ever will,” Nikki stated. She left. Diane called Jack and left a message asking him to let her know when Kyle was in town.

Jack and Phyllis went to his place and talked with Kyle. Kyle said Summer wished she could’ve come, but she’d asked him to give Phyllis a hug for her. Phyllis accepted the gesture, but she grumbled that it wasn’t the same. Jack asked about Harrison, and Kyle said he was playing upstairs. Kyle heard Rey died. Lola posted about it on social media. Jack said it was heartbreaking. Kyle was going to call Celeste and Lola. Jack thought that would be appreciated. In the few conversations he had with Celeste, she seemed close to her son. Phyllis said things like this made you count your blessings. Kyle agreed and said family was everything. Phyllis excused herself and left. Kyle knew it wasn’t like Phyllis to excuse herself. He sensed that she knew something he didn’t. He also knew Jack wouldn’t have called him here if it wasn’t something major.

Jack said this was about what happened in LA. He thanked Kyle for stepping up at Jabot and giving him the time and space to deal with his son’s passing. Kyle said of course – Keemo had been on his mind ever since he heard he died. Kyle knew it must’ve been painful that Jack missed the chance to reconcile with Keemo. Jack said that he was grateful he got to know Allie.

Jack said he didn’t even realize Keemo was back in the States. He’d received a cryptic anonymous text, and Phyllis responded to it. He’d received hints that lead him to Allie. Jack said that the person was sending him the texts because of Kyle. Kyle didn’t understand. Jack said the texter was someone they used to know. Someone who wanted their forgiveness. Jack wanted Kyle to know that opening or closing this door was completely up to him. Jack would support whatever decision Kyle made. Kyle wanted Jack to just tell him what was happening. “The person reaching out to me was your mother, Diane. She is alive. She is here, and she wants to see you,” Jack said.

At Society, Sally asked Adam how long Sharon and Rey were married. A little over a year, Adam said. Sally didn’t know Sharon that well, but from their encounters at the coffeehouse, she could tell Sharon looked content, like she was where she was supposed to be, and that she and Rey adored each other. She asked if he’d reached out to Sharon. He thought about it, but he didn’t think it’d go over well with her family, given the history. He didn’t want to do anything that would add to Sharon’s emotional burden. Sally didn’t think Adam should worry about Sharon’s family’s perception. Sally thought that What was important was if his visit made Sharon feel better. She said it was never wrong to tell your loved ones you were there for them. Adam was a little surprised Sally was encouraging this. Sally didn’t have an issue with Adam still caring about his ex. He said everyone else seemed to. She told him she wasn’t like everyone else. He knew. She’d be a lot more concerned if he didn’t give a damn about what Sharon was going through. She asked if he really thought his family would have an issue with him reaching out after what he did to save Victoria and the company from Ashland. Adam was wondering if Ashland caused the crash.

Adam spotted Ashland at the bar, and went over and loudly confronted him, despite Sally trying to keep him at their table. “You were supposed to leave town. You were paid a half a billion dollars to do it,” Adam snapped. Ashland said he only agreed to surrender control of Newman Locke and annul his marriage, not leave town. Adam said there was nothing left for Ashland here. Adam theorized that Ashland was sticking around to punish Victoria. Ashland thought Adam wouldn’t mind if that were true. “You have no affection for your sister. You just want to see her brought down a peg,” Ashland stated. Adam said that was rich coming from Ashland. Adam noted that he’d helped Victoria by removing the parasite that was Ashland from her life. Adam asked why Ashland had a bandaged hand and a boot on his foot – was he trying to garner more sympathy? Ashland said he was injured saving Victoria from the car. “You’re probably just faking your injuries like you did your cancer,” a skeptical Adam replied. Adam said that even if Ashland did rescue Victoria, it wouldn’t be enough to win her back, because no one held a grudge longer than her. Ashland said Adam would know. Adam wanted Ashland to do them all a favor and get the hell out of town.

Sally and Adam went back to his office. He wondered why Ashland was still around. Sally said that Ashland probably didn’t have much experience losing, so he might be trying to find a way to be the victor. She didn’t think he should let it get to him. He said it was hard not to when Ashland was sitting on 500 million dollars of Newman money. Victor walked in, and Adam revealed that Ashland was still in town, and he’d looked quite smug. Adam got the sense Ashland was cooking something up. Victor wasn’t going to allow Ashland to take that kind of money from him and mock him. Sally asked after Victoria, and Victor said she was okay. He thought Rey’s death added another layer of trauma to Victoria. He wondered if she knew Ashland was in town. He said they had to do everything they could to keep Ashland away from Victoria.

Adam mentioned that he was thinking of visiting Sharon and offering his condolences. Victor didn’t think that was a good idea. Sally didn’t see why not. Victor said if Adam approached Sharon now, a lot of people would think he was being opportunistic. Adam hoped Victor wasn’t one of those people. Victor said he was not. He appreciated that Adam went his own way and allowed Sharon to do the same. Adam didn’t want it to come off like he didn’t care about Sharon. Victor said Sharon knew the depth of Adam’s feelings, and she didn’t need any added conflict and stress – she had Nick and her children to comfort her.

Ashland went to The Grand Phoenix. He told Phyllis that Kyle texted him saying he was bringing Harrison to town. Now Kyle wasn’t returning his texts. Phyllis asked what Ashland wanted her to do about it. Ashland was wondering if Phyllis heard from Kyle and Jack. Phyllis pretended that when she was at the house earlier, Harrison had been sleeping. She suggested that Ashland just wait to hear from Kyle. Phyllis then changed her mind and said that she and Jack would bring Harrison over to Ashland and Victoria’s later. Ashland said thanks. He didn’t let on that he didn’t live there anymore. Phyllis asked if Ashland was okay after the accident. He lifted his hand and said he had minor burns.

Later, Nikki was exiting the elevator when she saw Ashland in the hotel lobby. She rushed to him and demanded to know what he was doing in town. He said he was here because he loved her daughter. She didn’t care about his feelings. Her concern was about helping Victoria heal. She didn’t want him to see Victoria again. He said she didn’t mind him seeing Victoria last night, when he rescued her. She appreciated him saving Victoria, but it didn’t erase the lies and deceit. Nikki would never forgive Ashland. Nikki thought that if Ashland loved Victoria, he shouldn’t insist on staying and making things worse for her. Ashland just wanted to make sure Victoria fully recovered from the accident, physically and emotionally. Nikki said that wasn’t Ashland’s place. He didn’t agree. She said Victoria’s family would help her recover. He said Victoria had free will and a beautiful fiery independent spirit, and she would decide how she wanted to deal with him. He was fed up with Nikki’s family’s constant complaints. “You’re not gonna be able to get rid of me, short of murder. So I would suggest you get used to seeing my face around here,” he stated. “We’ll see about that,” Nikki replied.

Sharon and Nick were at her place. She thanked him for insisting that she eat so she could keep her strength up. She knew Rey would’ve said the same thing. Nick told Sharon that she didn’t have to go to the morgue if she didn’t feel up to it. Sniffling, she said she needed to see Rey one more time. She didn’t think she could do it without Nick’s support. They hugged. Victoria came in, using her cane for support. Victoria said she was there if Sharon needed her. Victoria said that she was fine – the kids were there for her, and Nick had been wonderful. Victoria offered to bring meals or hang out with Faith. Nick said that was kind, but they had this handled. He said they were about to take off. Sharon excused herself and went upstairs, where she quietly shook and cried.

Victoria wished she’d been able to stay with Rey after the crash, so she could’ve told Sharon he wasn’t alone. Nick said that was beyond Victoria’s control, since she’d been unconscious and lucky to survive. Nick asked if Ashland chased Victoria and forced her off the road. She said he’d been following her, and he said he’d been worried about her driving in the fog while she was upset. Nick wanted to know what Ashland said at the office. Victoria said the details weren’t important now – she made it clear to Ashland that they were done. She admitted Ashland was right – she shouldn’t have been out driving in that state. She felt guilty. He said it wasn’t her fault, it was Ashland’s. Sharon returned. She’d overheard. She wasn’t looking for anyone to blame – it was an accident. Victoria appreciated that. She didn’t come here looking for absolution. Sharon knew why Victoria came.

Victoria went to Crimson Lights. Chelsea saw the cane and offered to get Victoria’s order, so the could have a seat. Victoria said it looked worse than it was. Chelsea said Victoria got lucky. Victoria agreed. Chelsea admitted that came out wrong. Chelsea said she’d been a little off – Rey’s death was so shocking and horrible. Victoria thought Rey’s death must be strange for Chelsea because she tried to kill him a year ago. “What happened last night is something that you tried to make happen before,” Victoria stated. Chelsea said she wasn’t in her right mind then, and she never wanted Rey to die. This was hitting her hard because Rey was a good friend.

Chelsea said Rey had every reason not to trust her, but he treated her with compassion and forgiveness. He was a sweet man who was good with Connor. He was on the road last night because he was taking her and Connor to hockey game. He left the tickets at home, went back to get them, and he never returned. Chelsea knew something was wrong, because Rey would never disappoint Connor like that. Victoria had no idea. She was sorry for Chelsea’s loss. Chelsea said Rey was one of the greatest men she’d ever known.

Nick and Sharon arrived at Crimson Lights after Victoria left. Chelsea approached and said Rey was a wonderful man, and she was truly sorry. Nick wanted to take Sharon home. Sharon had some things to do here, and she wanted to talk to Mariah about the wedding. Chelsea thought that Sharon could put that aside for now while she mourned. “I shouldn’t be mourning at all,” Sharon snapped.

When Victoria got to her office, Victor was there. He announced that Ashland was in town. She knew. Ashland had called her. Victor was angry about that, but Victoria said Ashland was just checking on her. She said that Ashland was out of the company, and the marriage was being annulled so he had no power over them. Victor thought things might be more complex than that. Victoria said she’d told Victor yesterday that she couldn’t just make her feelings for Ashland disappear, and that was even before he saved her life. It wasn’t an issue though because she was moving on.

Victoria learned her lesson, and she wasn’t tempted to trust Ashland again. She wished she’d caught on sooner. She knew Victor tried to warn her. He wasn’t there to scold her. He said that the hour between Victoria’s call to Nikki being cut off and finding Victoria in the cabin was arguably the most difficult moment of his life. He was so glad she was okay. She was sorry she scared him and her mom. She was sorry for so many things. They were sitting on the couch together. He wrapped his arm around her and pulled her close. He didn’t want her to be sorry about anything. He promised everything would be okay.

Update written by Joseph

Jake has a nightmare about fighting Devil Johnny and then wakes up in a panic. Ava wakes up next to him and asks if he’s okay.

Rafe works in his office at the police station and complains about being stuck with all the paper work like he has nothing better to do than stay here all night. Nicole arrives and questions how the hell all the charges against Ava were dropped.

Eric works the bar at the Brady Pub. Marlena arrives and says she had to see for herself that he was really back as they hug. Eric feels bad that he just went back to Africa so soon instead of sticking around and making sure she fully recovered. Marlena assures that she’s fine and that Eric saved her soul and set her free.

Gabi sits at her desk at DiMera Enterprises, reading an article in The Intruder about Ava going free. EJ arrives and asks if she’s having a rough day at the office. Gabi sees EJ and questions if Melinda is just letting everybody out of jail. EJ notes that she seems surprised as he’s sure she would have heard about his exoneration by now. Gabi guesses she blocked it out. EJ informs Gabi that he’s innocent as it turned out the Devil used Belle to set him up.

Belle goes to the police station and sees Shawn. Shawn thanks her for coming to see him but Belle clarifies that she came to see a client. Shawn asks if she will give him a few minutes to make his case first to try and convince her that she should come home. Shawn calls the situation Jan challenging and a total nightmare. Shawn says he misses Belle and he knows she misses him too. Belle argues that Shawn slept with a homicidal maniac whose only mission in life was to drive them apart and now she is having his baby. Shawn says he’s so sorry. Belle brings up Shawn impregnating Jan four months ago on Christmas Eve/their wedding anniversary and allowed her to believe that she interrupted them. Shawn complains that he believed Jan was Belle. Belle continues on that he didn’t confide in her what happened. Shawn explains that he knew it would hurt her and traumatize her, so he didn’t want to do that to her. Belle asks if it never occurred to him that Jan could get pregnant. Shawn argues that he thought it was Belle so it never occurred to him. Belle thinks maybe it should have which Shawn admits. Shawn says he was ashamed and asks what telling her would have done. Belle complains that this entire thing could have been avoided if Jan took the morning after pill. Shawn argues that Jan would have never agreed to that but Belle says she could have gotten a court order because it was sexual assault. Shawn apologizes for being so clueless but he doesn’t have a law degree so the thought never crossed his mind. Shawn says he knew he made the biggest mistake of his life and that’s been compounded by Jan being pregnant. Shawn assures Belle that this is a total nightmare for him and he can’t think of anything that would make him more miserable. Belle responds that she’s just shocked and disappointed that months went by without him telling her the truth and that she had to find out from Jan showing her. Shawn says she has every right to be angry but he can’t change the past or what the Devil did. Shawn promises Belle that he will spend the rest of his life making it up to her. Belle asks how he will do that. Shawn responds that he will prove and show her that she is the most important thing in the world to him. Shawn knows he can do it if she gives him a chance.

Eric is relieved that Marlena is okay but he’s disappointed himself as he really thought he got rid of the Devil for good but he let him jump in to Belle. Marlena argues that Satan is a master of deception.

Gabi asks EJ if she’s supposed to feel sorry for him that the Devil set him up. EJ responds that he didn’t come for her sympathy, but for his job. Gabi points out that the position has been filled and she told her assistant that she was not to be disturbed. EJ brings up recently being co-CEO. Gabi reminds him that when the evidence showed he kidnapped Sami, Mr. Shin fired him. EJ points out that now they both know Satan planted the evidence, so if not for him, he wouldn’t have been removed from his position and Satan is the only reason that Gabi is in that chair. Gabi argues that he can blame the Devil all he wants but the truth is, Johnny is the one who got her in to the chair. Gabi declares that Johnny got her in to this position and then tried to get her in to his bed.

Ava asks Jake again if he is okay. Jake says he just had a nightmare. Ava guesses it was pretty bad. Jake claims he’s fine. Ava puts her hand on his chest and notes that his heart is racing, so he doesn’t seem fine. Ava apologizes if she made things weird. Jake asks if she means weirder than sleeping together without actually sleeping together. Ava tells Jake that she is his friend, so if he wants to tell her about his nightmare, she is happy to listen. Jake claims he can’t remember and gets up to go shower.

Belle asks Shawn what if she gives him another chance. Shawn says he will follow her lead and do whatever she wants. Shawn knows he made a huge mistake and hates that he hurt her but he doesn’t want this to destroy their marriage. Shawn wants to figure this out with her and asks what she wants. Belle responds that she doesn’t want Jan Spears to be part of her life in any way. Shawn assures that she won’t have to worry about that. Belle argues that if the baby is in his life, and he is in her life, then Jan is in her life. Belle thinks it is best if she steers clear since Jan has tried to kill her. Shawn argues that they don’t know what Jan will do and maybe motherhood will calm her down. Shawn points out that he hasn’t heard from Jan once since she told him about the baby. Shawn then gets a call from the prison.

Nicole complains to Rafe about Melinda letting Ava walk. Rafe argues that Melinda just did it and ordered him to arrest Gwen which led to his pile of paper work which is why he couldn’t see Nicole last night. Nicole asks if Rafe could take a break. Rafe says he’d love that and suggests breakfast at the Pub. Nicole stops and remembers seeing Eric working at the Pub.

Eric apologizes to Marlena for not coming back sooner to help with Belle since he was off the grid. Marlena says he doesn’t have to apologize as they all pulled together and saved Belle. Eric questions no one being aware that Belle was possessed. Marlena mentions that Susan Banks thought the Devil got in to Belle, but Ben thought that it was Johnny.

EJ questions Gabi about Johnny trying to seduce her. Gabi explains that she and Jake had big plans and Johnny did too, so she suggested they all work together. EJ guesses Gabi wanted to use Johnny’s shares to take over the company. Gabi says she’s all about business but Johnny wanted more and kept pushing her to ditch Jake, to team up with him in more ways than one. Gabi tells EJ that she refused until she found out Jake was stabbing her in the back, but now they know it wasn’t Jake, it was Satan. Gabi says she wanted to confront Jake about double crossing her but Johnny stopped her and convinced her to ambush Jake at the meeting, to vote Chad out and her in. EJ questions it being Johnny’s idea to make Gabi CEO. Gabi says it was more about the power grab and notes how quick Johnny was to throw EJ under the bus. Gabi adds that afterwards, Johnny wanted to take their relationship to the next level but she found out that Jake didn’t betray her and she tried to fix it. Gabi adds that EJ doesn’t have to take her word for it, as she could ask his son. EJ responds that he wishes he could, but Johnny is gone. EJ tells Gabi that Johnny is in Italy doing some soul searching. Gabi hopes that works out for him. Gabi tells EJ that he’s all caught up now so he can see himself out since she has an international corporation to run. EJ reminds Gabi how well that they used to get along. Gabi asks if he means that was before he booted Jake out of the family business. EJ points out that Gabi and Jake are through, so he asks Gabi to step aside and let him have his job back but Gabi says no. EJ suggests she remember that he’s not as naïve as his son then and he will always respect his father’s legacy, so he won’t let it be run in to the ground by an interloper. EJ warns Gabi not to get too comfortable in that chair as it won’t be long before he puts her in her place and reclaims his. Gabi asks if that’s a threat. EJ calls it a promise and then walks out of the office.

Nicole tells Rafe that there is something he should know before they go to the Pub. Ava walks in and jokes about not interrupting if they were about to go at it on the desk. Rafe asks Ava what the hell she wants.

Gabi goes back to her desk and complains about who is more insufferable, Ava or EJ. Gabi decides she will forget them since Ava is a loser and EJ is unemployed while she is CEO. There’s a knock on the door, so Gabi complains that she’s not supposed to be disturbed, but it’s Jake who enters the office.

Eric asks Marlena if Johnny was possessed. Marlena explains that is what Ben originally thought. Eric asks if it was true since Johnny was in the room for Marlena’s exorcism. Marlena says that Belle as Satan tried to choke her to death but Johnny broke it up. Eric asks if Belle is okay. Marlena says physically she is okay and the Devil is gone, but when he was there, something happened that absolutely devastated Belle..

Jan is informed that Shawn refused her call. Jan complains that Shawn is the father of her child so he can’t just blow her off. Jan asks to call Shawn again and for him to be told that it’s an emergency.

Belle remarks that Shawn should have taken the call from his baby mama and says this is how it’s going to be from now on, when Jan calls he has to talk to her. Shawn argues that he’s taking to Belle now about saving their marriage, so Jan can wait. Shawn gets another call from the prison so Belle grabs his phone and accepts the charges. Belle tells Shawn to talk to Jan because she has nothing left to say. Shawn tries to argue but Belle says she will be at her parents’ and walks out of the station. Shawn asks Jan what she wants. Jan asks if that’s any way to talk to the mother of his child and guesses he’s been talking to Belle. Shawn threatens to hang up but Jan warns him not to if he cares about the life of their unborn child.

Eric is shocked to hear that Jan Spears is pregnant with Shawn’s child. Marlena adds that she feels responsible. Eric argues that Belle and Shawn can’t blame Marlena for the Devil’s work. Marlena explains that Belle is upset with Shawn for not telling her that he slept with Jan. Eric feels he should go check on Belle to see if there’s anything he can do. Marlena is sure Belle would love to hear from him. Marlena asks if he’s bumped in to anybody else since coming back to town. Eric confirms that Nicole stopped by and they talked for a bit. Marlena asks how that felt. Eric acknowledges that he and Nicole are divorced, while he’s committed to the priesthood and she’s committed to somebody else.

Rafe tells Ava that the good thing about the charges being dropped is that he doesn’t have to see her around here anymore. Ava says she didn’t come to see him, she came to see Gwen. Nicole asks why since Ava sold Gwen out. Ava argues that she did what she had to do to save herself but she took no pleasure in it and she came to apologize. Nicole questions believing her making amends with Gwen when she hasn’t even apologized to Rafe setting him up. Ava argues that Gwen didn’t have sex with her best friend or her boyfriend behind her back like some other people she knows. Nicole argues that Rafe didn’t deserve to go to prison and Ava doesn’t deserve to be free. Ava asks who she speaks to about seeing Gwen. Rafe agrees to let Gwen know that Ava wants to talk to her. Rafe tells Nicole that it won’t take long so he’ll meet her at the Pub. Nicole kisses Rafe and then exits. Ava tells Rafe that she will wait here while he goes to check with Gwen but Rafe refuses to leave her in his office and orders her to get out.

Gabi asks what Jake is doing here. Jake says he needed to talk to her. Gabi argues that she already knows how his new girlfriend Ava threw his old girlfriend Gwen under the bus and framed her brother. Jake clarifies that Ava is not his girlfriend, but even if she was, it’s not Gabi’s business. Gabi asks if Jake is okay with Ava throwing Gwen under the bus to save her own guilty ass. Jake argues that Gwen put Abigail and her family through Hell so he won’t lose sleep over that, but he’s not here to talk about Gwen or Ava, but about The Devil.

Shawn goes to see Jan at the prison and tells her that she has one minute. Jan complains about him being so cold to her when she’s really vulnerable. Shawn warns that she has 30 seconds. Jan argues that she knows he cares about their baby as much as she does. Jan starts crying that she’s really scared. Shawn tells her to skip the tears and games and just cut to the chase to tell him what the hell she wants.

Belle goes to the DiMera Mansion and tells EJ that she got his text and he said it was important. EJ informs her that he needs her help to take DiMera back from Gabi. Belle reminds him that she is DiMera’s general counsel, so Gabi is her boss. EJ says that’s only until she advises him on how to get rid of her. Belle asks why EJ would take her advice since he ignores it all the time. Belle reminds EJ that she told him not to hand over his shares to Johnny but he did it anyway and that’s how Gabi became CEO. EJ clarifies that Gabi said it was Johnny’s idea that she run the company. Belle points out that EJ handed Johnny all the power. EJ repeats that at the time, he trusted his son and never imagined he would undermine him. Belle argues that he should have trusted his attorney more. EJ agrees that he should not have been so dismissive, but promises to listen from now on. Belle appreciates that but says she still can’t advise him on this. Off the record, Belle suggests that EJ get Johnny to sign a document handing over his shares and then he can form a voting block to remove Gabi and put himself back in. EJ says there is just one problem with that strategy as Johnny has left town to Italy to find himself. Belle guesses he must first find Johnny to get his signature and that’s all she is going to say about it. EJ knows she’s heard all about him, so he asks how she is doing. Belle says that’s not a question she can answer in just a few words.

Jan claims she’s not trying to manipulate Shawn as she’s been cooperative and completely honest since telling him about their baby. Jan says that’s why when she learned something about their child today, she thought he would want to know immediately. Shawn says he’s here so she can tell him. Jan explains that she had a more thorough exam and she’s afraid there’s some bad news as she has a medical condition with a long, complicated name. Shawn doesn’t buy it but Jan says what she has is serious and she needs to be on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy. Shawn asks what that has to do with him. Jan complains that nobody can rest in prison, so he needs to get her released immediately for the sake of their baby.

Gabi questions Jake wanting to talk about the Devil and asks if he means his girlfriend. Jake repeats that Ava is just his roommate and it’s none of her business, but he needs help and Gabi is the only person he can turn to. Gabi asks what he needs help with. Jake says it’s about a dream that feels more like a memory. Jake reminds Gabi that she left him alone in the conference room at DiMera with Johnny, but in his dream, Johnny seemed possessed with the freaky voice and glowing eyes. Gabi guesses Jake hit his head pretty hard because when she got back, Jake was out cold. Gabi recalls Johnny saying that Jake attacked him. Jake doesn’t remember that, but in his dream, he punched the Devil. Gabi says what she remembers from that day is that she got this job and lost Jake. Jake decides this was a mistake and apologizes for bothering her. Gabi stops him and says they both know the Devil and Johnny broke them up. Gabi asks if he’s thinking they are one in the same.

Rafe informs Ava that Gwen doesn’t want to see her. Ava guesses that she’s holding a grudge. Rafe doesn’t want to see Ava either, so he tells her to get out and not come back. Ava argues that she’s a free woman so she can go where ever she damn well pleases. Rafe warns that Ava got away this time, but if she thinks about hurting him or Nicole, she won’t have to worry about speaking with Gwen because she’ll be in the same cell with her in prison. Ava mocks him playing bad cop and says he never showed her this side when they were dating because if he had, they’d probably still be together. Ava then walks out of the station.

Eric mentions Nicole being with Rafe now. Marlena is surprised she told him and wants to know that Eric is okay. Eric assures he’s fine, acknowledging that Nicole was his first love so they will obviously have a connection but they realized they are two different people who want two very different lives. Marlena asks if seeing Nicole now is just like seeing an old friend. Eric admits his heart skipped a beat when he saw Nicole so she will still have that power over him. Nicole then enters the Pub and sees them.

Jake tells Gabi that there was a time when he, Ben, and Ciara thought Johnny was possessed but it turned out the Devil was in Belle and Johnny was just a jerk. Gabi asks what about his dream since it must mean something for him to come ask for her help. Jake calls it a mistake and repeats that he’s sorry to bother her. Jake tells Gabi to get back to running DiMera all by herself. Gabi blames living with Ava for giving him nightmares. Jake then reveals that he and Ava are now sharing the bed. Gabi gets upset but Jake assures that nothing happened and they stayed on their sides of the bed. Jake then exits the office. Gabi remarks that it won’t last.

Marlena and Nicole greet each other. Marlena says she has to get going and tells Eric that she will be in touch, so she exits the Pub. Nicole informs Eric that Rafe is meeting her here for breakfast at his suggestion. Eric tells her that she doesn’t have to explain. Nicole apologizes since this is a little strange. Eric points out that it wasn’t strange yesterday. Nicole says now Rafe will be walking through the door. Eric assures Nicole that seeing her happy will never make him uncomfortable as he’s truly happy that she’s met someone who will put her first and can give her their whole heart. Eric holds Nicole’s hands and tells her that she deserves that as Rafe walks in to the Pub, surprised to see Eric with Nicole.

Belle informs EJ that she ran in to Shawn at the police station and he wants her to come back home. EJ asks what she wants. Belle cries that she wants to go back in time to stop Shawn from sleeping with Jan so she wouldn’t be carrying his baby. EJ wishes he could help her with that. Belle wishes she could do what EJ did to Sami when he found out she cheated with Lucas. EJ points out that he banished Sami from his life. Belle cries that she wants to banish all of this and erase it forever but she can’t because she loves Shawn. EJ hugs Belle as she cries.

Shawn informs Jan that he just spoke to the prison doctor. Jan guesses she backed up what she said and tells Shawn that she told him that she wasn’t making it up. Jan warns Shawn that if she stays in prison, their child will not survive.

Jake returns home and thinks back to his nightmare about Devil Johnny. Ava asks if he’s still shaken up about his nightmare but Jake claims he’s fine.

Gabi declares that she will get Ava out of Jake’s bed if it’s the last thing she does.

Rafe greets Eric and they hug. Rafe asks when Eric got in to town. Eric says it was yesterday and questions Nicole not telling him. Nicole explains that they didn’t see each other last night and she tried to tell him this morning but they were interrupted. Nicole informs Rafe that she and Eric ran in to each other yesterday morning. Rafe says it’s great and welcomes Eric back, asking how long he’s here for. Eric says it’s just a visit and mentions that Nicole told him about her and Rafe, so he wishes them both happiness.

Belle tells EJ that she feels like she’s never going to be happy again. EJ encourages that she is smart and strong, so she will find a way to make the best of all of it. Belle asks how when Jan is crazy, heartless, and is now pregnant with her husband’s baby. EJ says if Belle wants her marriage to work then it will. EJ believes in Belle and urges her to believe in herself.

Shawn asks what Jan wants him to do. Jan argues that he’s an officer of the law so he can pull some strings or call in a favor to get her released. Shawn argues that they won’t let a nutjob with her record out of prison just because she’s pregnant. Jan argues that they are options other than letting her free, like house arrest. Shawn asks whose house, so Jan suggests his.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Kyle: I’m not sure how long we’ll be waiting for grandpa, but in the meantime, I got a heads-up that mrs. Martinez made some of your favorite cookies. So how about you go to the kitchen and get some of those and go play in your old bedroom?

Harrison: Yum!

Kyle: [ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ] While I wait to hear grandpa’s big news.

Nikki: I cannot believe what I’m seeing.

Diane: [ Sighs ] I know this must come as a shock.

Nikki: “Shock”?! Shock doesn’t begin to cover it. What the hell makes you think you can show your face in genoa city after the devastation you have caused?

Sally: [ Sighs ] I know I keep saying it, but it is just so awful. Poor sharon. How long were she and rey married?

Adam: Um…little over a year.

Sally: I mean, I don’t know sharon very well, but whenever i saw her at the coffee house, she always just seemed so content, happy and at peace, like she was genuinely grateful to be exactly where she was in her life. And rey just adored her — that much was obvious. And vice versa.

Adam: Well, sharon must be reeling. I’m just glad that noah is home from london, and it’ll help her to have all her kids around her.

Sally: Have you reached out to her?

Adam: I thought about it, but I don’t think that would go over well with her family, given my history with her. You know, I think she considers us friends now, but I just —

Sally: Wow, I am used to people thinking the worst of you, but seriously? You can’t even express your condolences to a friend?

Adam: I don’t want to do anything that will add to her emotional burden. She’s got enough to handle right now.

Sharon: [ Clears throat ] Thank you for insisting that i eat something. Um…you’re right, I need to keep my strength up. Rey would’ve said the same thing. And I feel better now, so… we can leave.

Nick: Sharon, there’s no rule about seeing rey at the morgue. If it’s too much for you, i mean, the last time you saw him, you told him you loved him. If you want that to be your goodbye, when you were happy, then just do it.

Sharon: No. No, I need to do this. I need to see him one more time.

[ Sighs ] Thank you. Thank you for being here. Thank you for driving me. I don’t think I could do this without your support.

Nick: Whatever you need.

Sharon: Thank you.

[ Knock on door ]

Nick: Hey.

Victoria: Hey. I’m so sorry.

This is the story of two homes.

Sally: If I were you, I would not be worried about what her family’s perception might be. Sharon will know that your concern for her is genuine, and if it makes her feel even just a little bit better, that’s all that really matters. It’s never wrong to tell your loved ones that you’re there for them.

Adam: Well, thank you for that.

Sally: You’re surprised?

Adam: [ Chuckles ] Um, a little bit.

Sally: Why? Look, I don’t have an issue with the fact that you still care about your ex.

Adam: Well, everyone else seems to.

Sally: Well, I hoped you would’ve realized by now that i am not like everyone else.

Adam: Hey. I do.

Sally: Well, I would’ve been a lot more concerned if you didn’t give a damn about what sharon was going through, ’cause honestly, I can’t imagine anything worse. Do you really think your family’s gonna have an issue with you reaching out to her after what you just did to save victoria and the company from ashland?

Adam: I am still wondering if he somehow caused the car crash. What was he doing anywhere near victoria? That son of a bitch was supposed to be gone a long time ago, and — unbelievable.

Sally: Adam, adam —

Adam: Hey! We made a deal. You were supposed to leave town. You were paid half a billion dollars to do it, so why are you still here?

Nick: Vick, how you feeling? Are you sure you should be out and about?

Victoria: I’m fine. I, um…I haven’t been able to stop thinking about rey since ashland told me what happened. I really — I — I can’t wrap my mind around it.

Sharon: Yeah, neither can I.

Victoria: It’s just not fair. I can’t imagine what you’re going through, and I just wanted you to know that if you need me for anything, if there’s anything that I can do…

Sharon: Um…well, thank you. You know, I’m — I’m fine. I have a lot of love and support around me, and nick has been wonderful. And the kids have been just a well of strength for me to draw from.

Victoria: Yes, your family always does come together when the times get tough. You and nick should be really proud about that. But if there is anything that i can do to help, I mean, if — if you need me to bring meals or maybe hang out with faith, if there’s anything at all you can think of…

Nick: That’s — that’s very kind of you, but I think we’ve got everything handled. We were actually just about to take off.

Sharon: Um, you know, actually, I forgot something in my room. I’ll be right back.

Nikki: Where in god’s name have you been all this time?

Diane: Living a quiet life under the radar while I pulled myself back together.

Nikki: Oh, you had to fake your own death to pull yourself together?

Diane: I needed a fresh start.

Nikki: How lovely for you. So you just gallivanted off to who knows where without a care in the world, leaving a trail of destruction in your wake. Back here, people’s lives were upended. I was charged with murder, which I’m sure you were thrilled to hear about that turn of events.

Diane: [ Sighs ] No part of this was enjoyable for me. I thought jack might have explained why I came back, what my intentions are.

Jack: I have no interest in make excuses for you.

Phyllis: Yeah, I second that. You decided to come back here and face the music. Start singing.

Diane: [ Scoffs ] Nikki, I was utterly desperate. I didn’t know what I should do. I just knew that I had to get away.

Nikki: Well, then why didn’t you just go away? Nobody would’ve objected to that.

Diane: Because I had crossed some very powerful people, and i was terrified that they’d never leave me alone. Okay, maybe it wasn’t rational, but I wasn’t thinking rationally. I had boxed myself into a corner.

Nikki: Oh, and apparently you decided that the only way to get out of that box was to ruin my life. You know, if you had to play dead, you could’ve had the courtesy to stay that way. I have moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.

Victoria: I really wish so much that I was able to stay with rey after the crash, and that way I could tell sharon that he wasn’t alone.

Nick: Come on, that was beyond your control. You were unconscious. You were lucky to survive that accident yourself. I still don’t understand what happened. I mean, why was ashland there? Was he chasing you? Did you force you off the side of the road?

Victoria: No. He was following me. I didn’t realize it. He said he was worried about me driving in the fog and being so upset.

Nick: Because you guys had it out at the office?

Victoria: Yes.

Nick: What’d he say to you?

Victoria: Nicholas, the details aren’t important now. I — I made it perfectly clear to him that things are over between us. But he’s right, I probably shouldn’t have been out driving in that state. You know, mom tells me that i shouldn’t feel guilty, but I do. If I weren’t driving, if i weren’t on that road…

Nick: Vick, this isn’t your fault. All of this is on ashland. None of it would’ve happened if it weren’t for him.

Sharon: Sorry, um…couldn’t help overhearing. I’m not looking for someone to blame. It was an accident, that’s all. I don’t want you to feel guilty. That wouldn’t help anyone. We’re all experiencing a lot of hurt as it is.

Victoria: I really appreciate you saying that. I didn’t come here looking for you to make me feel better.

Sharon: I know why you came. I appreciate the gesture, but, um… nick, I’m ready to go.

Ashland: It sounds like you need to reread our agreement. There was no mention of me leaving genoa city. I agreed to surrender control of newman/locke and to have my marriage to victoria annulled. That was it.

Adam: Why would you even want to stay in town? There’s nothing left for you here. Your career is over. Your former wife despises you. Oh. So it is about victoria. I mean, what move could you possibly have left when it comes to her? Were you angry that she rejected you? Now you want to punish her?

Ashland: Why do I get the feeling you wouldn’t mind if that was my motive? Because, adam, you have no affection for your sister. You just want to see her brought down a peg in any way possible.

Adam: That is rich coming from you. And I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m not bringing my sister down. I’m doing the opposite. I actually lifted her up by eliminating you from her life — an annoying parasite who latched onto its host and wouldn’t let go.

Ashland: I’m sure she’s very grateful to you for that.

Adam: What’s with the little bandage on your hand and the boot on your foot? This another bid for sympathy?

Ashland: I was injured pulling your sister from the wreckage of her car.

Adam: Well, excuse me for not taking your word for it. I don’t know anyone who would believe you at this point. Well, you’re probably just faking your injuries like you did your cancer. And even if you did rescue victoria, it’s not gonna be enough to win her back because there is nobody in this world that holds a grudge longer than my sister.

Ashland: You would know.

Adam: Look, why don’t you just do us all a favor and get the hell out of town?

Diane: I understand how you must feel.

Nikki: No, you don’T. You don’t have a clue. You have no idea how furious i am.

Diane: I bet you’re about to make that very clear.

[ Chuckles ]

Nikki: Your quote-unquote death set off a chain of events that wreaked havoc with my entire family, starting with legal charges for me and my husband.

Diane: That were dropped.

Nikki: Yes, you must have been so disappointed that victor and I weren’t given a life sentence for your murder. But you’ll be happy to know that we still suffered greatly. Just the anxiety and fear was agonizing. Nobody really knew what had happened or who was responsible for it. And, of course, your partner-in-crime deacon took full advantage of that.

Phyllis: Oh, wait a second, i have a question about that. Was it your idea to have deacon blackmail nikki for a murder she didn’t commit?

Diane: No, it wasn’T. Nikki, I know you won’t believe me, but it’s the truth.

[ Cellphone chimes ] I was a wreck at the time. I was barely hanging on. I had no control over what was happening back here.

Nikki: Well, you could’ve come forward. You could’ve let people know that you were alive and end this nightmare.

Jack: Okay, this is getting a little out of control. You wanted to see her for yourself, you’ve seen her. I am late for a meeting with someone.

Phyllis: Oh, the person we were talking about ear– okay.

Jack: Yeah, yeah. Why don’t we go now and you can pick this up later?

Nikki: Jack, you and phyllis go. I still have some things I want to talk to diane about.

Jack: Nikki.

Nikki: It’ll be fine. I promise.

Phyllis: Well, it’s not like nikki can be charged with the same murder twice, so…

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: Just in case, I’m taking this lamp. I warned you not to come out of here.

Diane: Goodbye, phyllis.

Nikki: Have a seat. There are some things we have to get straight.

Itchy?

Diane: [ Sighs ] Phyllis was right about one thing — I put myself in this position by coming back here. I needed to be prepared for people’s reactions, however stressful they might be.

Nikki: Oh, I’m sorry, it’s stressful for you?

Diane: But it’s a relief to finally have a chance to explain what I did and try to at least make amends for it. I’m sure you can relate to that.

Nikki: Oh, please, don’t even think about comparing yourself to me.

Diane: Well, you’ve obviously grown and changed a lot in the years since we’ve seen each other. Back then, weren’t you drinking? You were violent.

Nikki: When I attacked you, I was acting in self-defense.

Nikki: So was I, and that’s what you need to understand. I was scared and I was trying to protect myself. Only everything I was trying wasn’t working. Deacon offered me an escape route, and, yes, I took it. He might’ve had his own reasons for doing what he did, probably had to do with his twisted relationship with you, but that’s between the two of you.

Nikki: Oh, don’t make it sound like we’re still involved. I haven’t given that man a moment’s thought in years.

Diane: All I know is he gave me a way out and a chance to start over, and I’m going to repay him the only way I can — by making the most of this new life and not repeating mistakes of the past.

Nikki: Hmm. Well, you know what, diane? I don’t believe one word of this. You are still the same manipulative, conniving little bitch you always were. And an apology tour isn’t really gonna cut it, because everybody in this town is gonna see right through you.

Chelsea: Hey. Do you — do you want to sit down? I can get your order.

Victoria: Oh, thank you. That’s not necessary. It really just looks worse than it is.

Chelsea: You got lucky.

Victoria: Yes, I did.

Chelsea: I’m sorry, that — I’m sorry, that came out wrong. I just — I’ve been a little off today. Adam told me about rey. It’s just so shocking and horrible.

Victoria: Yes, it is. I — I would think that rey’s death might seem strange to you, since you tried to end his life a year ago.

Chelsea: What?

Victoria: Well, all I’m saying is that what happened last night is something that you tried to make happen before.

Chelsea: I wasn’t in my right mind. I never wanted rey to die. This is all hitting me very hard because rey was actually my friend. My good friend.

Adam: What could ashland hope to gain by sticking around? He’s ruined here, and victoria is done with him.

Sally: My guess is a man like that doesn’t have much experience coming out the loser, so maybe he still thinks he can snatch some sort of victory from the jaws of defeat. In any case, you should not let it get to you.

Adam: Well, it’s hard not to when he’s sitting on $500 million of newman money.

Victor: Hello, hello. Just came by to check in.

Adam: Well, it’s perfect timing because I was just about to call you. You will never believe who I ran into at society — ashland locke, bellied up to the bar, hanging out, having a cocktail.

Victor: Why is he still in town?

Adam: I don’t know. But he looked pretty damn comfortable. Downright smug, actually. I got the sense he was cooking something up, like he’s not done with us yet.

Victor: As if that bastard hasn’t done enough damage already. If he thinks he can take $500 million from me and mock me, he has another thing coming.

Sally: How is victoria doing?

Victor: Doing alright. I think rey’s death has added another layer of trauma to her. Otherwise, I think she’s okay. I just wonder if she knows that that bastard is still in town.

Adam: I’m not sure.

Victor: You know, we have to do everything in our power to keep him away from her, okay?

Adam: Mm-hmm. Speaking of rey, have you talked to sharon? I was thinking about stopping by to see her later and offer my condolences.

Victor: Son, I don’t think that’s a good idea.

Jack: It is good to have you back. Oh! You look good.

Kyle: You too, dad.

Jack: I think italy agrees with you.

Kyle: Summer and I are loving it, and she was disappointed she was too swamped with work to make the trip, but she asked me to give you a hug on her behalf.

Phyllis: Okay, I mean, it’s not the same thing, but I’ll take it. Taking care of my little girl?

Kyle: Like my life depends on it.

Phyllis: Good.

Jack: So where’s harrison?

Kyle: Upstairs playing.

Jack: Okay, eager as I am to see him, it gives us a chance to talk, then.

Kyle: Yeah, first, I just heard about rey. Lola posted about his passing on social media.

Jack: Oh, it is just heartbreaking, and I haven’t had a chance to talk to sharon yet.

Kyle: Yeah, I thought I’d call celeste and lola in a bit.

Jack: I’m sure they’d appreciate that. The few conversations I’ve had with celeste, it sounded like she had a very close bond with her son.

Phyllis: Yeah, when things like this happen, it makes you count your blessings, right?

Kyle: Absolutely. Family’s everything.

Phyllis: Yes, yes. I’m needed at the hotel, by the way, so I got to go. We’ll catch up later.

Jack: Thank you.

Kyle: So…since when does phyllis politely excuse herself?

Jack: What do you mean?

Kyle: She knows something i don’t, doesn’t she? And you wouldn’t have asked me to come all this way unless it was something major, so what’s going on, dad?

“The young and the restless”

will continue. (Cyclist) why is ice t in a speed walking crew?

Adam: Well, I admit, I have been debating with myself whether I should reach out to sharon.

Victor: Well, then your gut is telling you the right thing, okay? She has all the support she needs right now.

Sally: But couldn’t she always use more support? I mean, I’m just saying, why hold back?

Victor: If adam approached her now, a lot of people would misinterpret that and would think that he was being opportunistic.

Adam: I hope you’re not one of those —

Victor: No, son, I’m not. I appreciate the fact that you went your own way and you allowed sharon to do the same thing. It was the right thing to do.

Adam: Look, I just — I don’t want it to come off to her like I don’t care about what she is going through.

Victor: Son, I assure you, she knows the depths of your feelings. She doesn’t need any added conflict and stress. So let nicholas and her children comfort her now.

Chelsea: I know it must seem strange that rey and I became friends. Trust me, no one was more surprised than I was. I mean, he had every reason not to trust me. Yet, instead, he treated me with compassion, forgiveness. He was just a sweet man. Oh, and he was so good with connor.

[ Sighs ] That’s why he was on the road last night. He was about to pick us up for a hockey game.

Victoria: I had no idea.

Chelsea: He left the tickets at home, went back to get them, and never came back. I knew something was wrong. I knew he would never disappoint connor like that unless something terrible had happened.

[ Sighs ] Connor just adored him. He thought he hung the moon. Adam and I, we had to tell him earlier what happened, and it was really, really hard.

Victoria: I’m sorry for your loss.

Chelsea: It was a loss for everyone whose life he touched. Rey was just a great man. One of the greatest men I’ve ever known.

Nikki: I suppose I can understand jack feeling compelled to let you reach out to kyle. You are his mother, as unfortunate as that may be for him. But I don’t want you anywhere near my loved ones. Do you understand me? You stay away from victor and victoria and especially nicholas.

Diane: Hmm. Relax, I’ve got no designs on your husband or your son.

Nikki: And while you’re at it, you should probably avoid adam, too. As much as you thought people hated you back then, that’s nothing compared to how they’ll feel about you now.

Diane: Not everyone is as unforgiving as you.

Nikki: Oh, diane, you are in for a rude awakening. You’ll find no redemption here. As much trouble as your murder caused me and my family, we were so relieved to finally have you out of our lives. No one has ever wanted you here and no one ever will.

Jack: This is about what happened on my trip to los angeles after keemo died. And thank you again for stepping up business-wise. Gave me the space and time i needed to deal with my son’s passing.

Kyle: Of course, dad. Keemo’s been on my mind ever since you told me. Must have been incredibly painful for you to miss the chance to reconcile with him.

Jack: Yeah, it was a difficult time, but I’m grateful I got to know allie. Spent some time with her, got to know her — she’s a pretty amazing young woman. I hope you get to meet her soon.

Kyle: Is that what you wanted to talk to me about? Is there something about allie you want me to know?

Jack: No, that’s not it. I wanted you to know, though, how I first got to meet her so that you could understand the whole story…of who it was that led me to this discovery and why. We hit the bike trails every weekend

Phyllis: Okay, so take this to conference room B. Thank you. Oh, wow, hi. Lots of interesting people coming into my lobby today. How are you, ashland?

Ashland: Uh, I’m okay, thank you. Actually, I got a text from kyle this morning that he and harrison were coming into town, and now he’s not returning my texts or my phone calls.

Phyllis: Okay, what do you want me to do about it?

Ashland: Well, I was wondering if you had heard from him or from jack or if you knew where they were, what they’d be doing.

Phyllis: Um, I saw them earlier, and harrison, he was wiped out from the flight. He was taking a nap. He’s — he’s probably still napping. You should just wait for kyle’s response. You know, or I’ll just get with jack and we’ll get harrison and we’ll bring him to you. We’ll — we’ll come to your and victoria’s house.

Ashland: Okay, thank you.

Phyllis: I heard about the accident. Are you okay?

Ashland: Uh, minor burns, that’s all. Thank you, phyllis.

Jack: Keemo and I were not in touch with each other for many years. I didn’t even know he moved back to the states. In fact, I wouldn’t have known much about happened to him if i hadn’t gotten a cryptic, anonymous text.

Kyle: Okay, that’s strange.

Jack: So strange I almost didn’t respond. And when I did — or more accurately, when phyllis did — there were clues, there were hints that led me to allie. She was just as confused as i was, and it seemed for a time that I would never know who had sent me those mysterious texts.

Kyle: But you finally figured it out?

Jack: I did. The person sending me those texts, their reason for sending them…it was all about you.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] Daddy, what are you doing here?

Victor: My poor girl. Wanted to see how you are.

Victoria: I’m okay.

Victor: I’m glad to hear that. I just wanted you to know that ashland locke is still in town.

Victoria: I’m aware. He called me.

Victor: I paid that man $500 million to leave you alone. He knows it.

Victoria: Dad, please, don’t get frustrated. Ashland was just checking on me after the accident, and even if he did want something else, it’s not gonna happen. We’ve terminated his contract. Our marriage is being annulled. He has no more power over us.

Victor: Legally, you’re right. But I am afraid it’s a bit more complicated for you, right?

Victoria: I told you yesterday, I can’t just make my feelings for the man disappear. And that was before he saved my life. But it’s not an issue. I’m moving on. Ashland knows it, and so do I.

Victor: [ Sighs ] You’re saying that now. But is it gonna be that easy for you?

Nikki: What are you still doing here? Why haven’t you left town?

Ashland: That seems to be a popular question for me today.

Nikki: So answer it.

Ashland: The answer is simple. I’m still here in town because i love your daughter. My moderate to severe plaque psoriasis…

Victoria: I am not the slightest bit tempted to trust ashland again. I’ve learned my lesson. I just…I wish I would’ve caught on a little sooner. I know, I know you tried to warn me, so you don’t have to remind me of that.

Victor: Didn’t come here to scold you, my sweetheart. That’s the farthest thing from my mind. I got to tell you, the hour between when your phone call to your mother was cut off and we found you…was arguably the most difficult moment of my life, okay? I’m so glad you’re alright.

Victoria: I’m sorry I scared you and mom. I’m sorry for so many things, dad.

Victor: Come here. I don’t want you to be sorry about a damn thing, okay? Everything will be alright.

Nikki: Your feelings are entirely irrelevant to me. My main concern is victoria. To protect her and help her heal. And the best way to do that is to keep her as far away from you as possible. I don’t ever want her to come face-to-face with you again.

Ashland: You didn’t seem to mind me being face-to-face with her last night. While I was saving her life.

Nikki: I appreciate you dragging her from the car. But that does not erase all of the things that you did leading up to that moment. Your lies, your deceit. The pain that you put victoria through. I will never forgive you for that. You say you love her? Then why would you insist on staying here and making things worse for her?

Ashland: That is not at all my goal. I want to make sure that victoria recovers fully from the accident, both physically and emotionally.

Nikki: You’re the last person to do that.

Ashland: I disagree.

Nikki: Her family will be the ones to help her recover, thank you.

Ashland: If you get your way, yes. But it’s not a forgone conclusion.

[ Sighs ] Victoria has free will and a beautiful, fiery, independent spirit. She will decide how she wants to deal with me. And quite frankly, I’m getting very tired of your family constantly complaining. You’re not gonna be able to get rid of me, short of murder. So I would suggest you get used to seeing my face around here.

Nikki: We’ll see about that.

Chelsea: Sharon. I don’t know what to say. There are no words. Rey was such a wonderful man.

Sharon: Thank you.

Chelsea: Uh…I mean, I don’t mean to intrude, I just wanted you to know how truly sorry i am.

Nick: Uh, sharon, why don’t you, uh, let me take you home?

Sharon: No, no, um…there’s some things that I want to do here. Plus, I want to talk to mariah about the wedding.

Chelsea: Oh, I’m sure that can wait. I mean, you’ve just been dealt this terrible blow. You should take as much time as you need to mourn your loss.

Sharon: I shouldn’t be mourning at all.

Diane: Jack, it’s me. I’m — I’m so anxious to see kyle and explain everything. Please — please let me know when he’s in town.

[ Sighs ]

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Kyle: Okay, I don’t understand how this mystery in los angeles connects back to me.

Jack: The person who wrote me these texts is someone we used to know. Someone who wants our forgiveness. It turns out these messages about keemo and allie were sort of a show of good faith.

Kyle: But why? I don’t get it.

Jack: Kyle, I’m gonna tell you who it is, but before I do, I want you to know opening or closing this door is completely up to you and I will support any decision you make.

Kyle: This story just keeps getting stranger and more confusing. Why don’t you just give it to me straight, please? Just tell me what’s happening.

Jack: The person reaching out to me was…your mother. Diane. She is alive. She is here. And she wants to see you.

[ Knocking on door ]

Nina: Okay. Okay. I am coming!

Smoltz: Reeves. Grant Smoltz. You haven’t been taking my calls.

Nina: Yeah, there’s a reason for that. How’d you get past the doorman?

Smoltz: I have a gift for improv.

Nina: Oh, well, that’s fantastic. Goodbye.

Smoltz: Oh. Ms. Reeves, this is your last chance to comment on Michael Corinthos and Willow Tait’s assertions that you’re unstable and how you’d be an undesirable influence on your grandson, Wiley. If I were you, I’d want to get my two cents on the record.

Nina: Well, fortunately, I’m not you. I’m calling security.

Smoltz: I’m bending over backward, trying to get your side of the argument on record.

Nina: What are you doing in my apartment?

Smoltz: Look, we both know your case is a long shot. To start, your daughter, the late Nelle Benson, was a murderer. And now you’re capitalizing on her death to give you access to Wiley Corinthos.

Nina: I am actually almost speechless at how you’re grossly distorting the situation.

Smoltz: Alright.

Sasha: Hey. Get the hell out.

Brando: I really appreciate you helping Sasha and I find a home. Although I’m — I’m a little surprised that, uh, you’re still working as a realtor, considering deception’s IPO’s done so well.

Lucy: I know. It’s kind of weird. But listen, I kind of love real estate, and I don’t think I will ever give it up, because, yes, you’re right, the IPO has done very, very well, but I learned a long time ago, do not get too cocky. So what I’m gonna do — I think I’m gonna hire some extra staff, maybe have them do all the grunt work. But I love this. I mean, somehow it makes me happy to find folks their forever home, not to mention the fact that I love going through those beautiful homes and just checking them out. I’m a little nosy.

Brando: [ Laughs ] I don’t blame you.

Lucy: Besides, you and Sasha are my very good friends. So, uh, where is she? Is she gonna join us?

Brando: Um, actually, Sasha and i have discussed in great detail all the things that are important to her and what’s important to me in our dream home. So I’m gonna be taking care of the early searches. And, you know, Sasha’s just got so much going on right now. I’m doing whatever I can to — to make things easier for her.

Willow: How are you doing?

Michael: Fine.

Willow: You sure?

Michael: A little. I don’t know. That — that — that argument was a long time coming. Ever since my father got back from Nixon Falls, he’s — he’s been acting like a stranger.

Willow: I blame Nina. All those months Sonny thought he was a man with no family, he was alone in the world. Clearly, that changed him.

Michael: I agree. And I don’t like the man he’s become.

Willow: Did you mean what you said? Are you really prepared to cut your father out of your life?

Sonny: [ Exhaling sharply ]

Michael: You tore this family apart, and I’m not gonna excuse it or gloss it over. You know, I even — I even thought about changing my name back to Michael Quartermaine, but I thought, why should I do that? Why should I change my last name because of you? It’s best to redeem it. Make “Corinthos” stand for something good, so that when people think about it, they think of me, they think of — think of Wiley. And you and all your lies, your — your disloyalty, violence, crimes — eventually that will be forgotten, like you never even existed.

Dante: Oh. I got your message, decided I would join you.

Sonny: Do me a favor. Put your gloves on so I can let off some steam.

Dante: Yeah, it looks like you got some steam to let off.

Sonny: Yeah.

Dante: Alright, I’ll show you a thing or two. Get my gloves on.

[ Bag thudding ]

Dante: Hey, uh, you know, I heard that the, uh, guys who tried to rob you at Charlie’s, they got some fancy lawyer hired for them and then made bail.

Sonny: Yeah.

Dante: Well, you don’t know anything about that, do you?

Sonny: Okay, l-let me just — can we just — is this an official interrogation? ‘Cause I — I-it — it would just be nice if I could talk to my son instead of a cop.

Elizabeth: Laura and Kevin have been so great about watching Jake and Aiden. And I know it’s the best situation for their safety, but, man, I miss my boys.

Finn: I know you do.

Elizabeth: I just hope that being away from this house and everything that’s going on is gonna be good for Aiden.

Finn: Agreed. Hopefully he can let go of the idea that it’s Franco’s ghost that’s behind the break-ins. You know, if only we had a clue as to who the intruder was, you know, like a fingerprint or maybe an image from a security camera. That would go a long way in convincing Aiden that it was a person harassing you and not a, you know, ghost.

Elizabeth: So far, they haven’t left a trace.

Finn: You know what, though? They’re gonna slip up and they’re gonna make a mistake. But you can’t be here when they do that. I really would like you to reconsider staying with me just until this is resolved.

Elizabeth: I’m sorry. I can’t do that.

[ Car door closes ]

[ Beep ]

Harmony: I’m gonna make this look like a tragic accident. I never meant for it to go this far. But after everything I’ve done to protect Willow, I can’t stop now.

Finn: Chase was attacked in your house, alright? It’s not safe for you to be here. And I get it — you don’t want to be forced from your own home. But desperate times call for desperate measures.

Elizabeth: You’re right. I-I didn’t want to leave. But that was before Chase was knocked unconscious. Jake and Aiden are safe with Laura. Cameron is with friends at the dorm. And now it’s time for me to find someplace to go.

Finn: But not my place.

Elizabeth: I don’t want to bring the danger to your home. I won’t put Violet at risk, which is why I won’t be staying with Jake or Aiden, either. I’m gonna get a room at the Metro Court.

Finn: Are you sure that’s the best option?

Elizabeth: It’s a hotel. [ Scoffs ] Filled with people and security. I’ll be safe there.

Lucy: I’m so excited. I’m gonna set up a bunch of viewings. Of course, I’m gonna fit it into your schedule, right? Because I just know that your perfect dream house is out there waiting for us to find it.

Brando: I hope so. Yeah, I-I-I just think it’s really important for Sasha and I to focus on the future and — and how we move forward together.

Lucy: Yeah. Hey, I really hope that, as time passes, that maybe it’ll ease some of the grief that you and Sasha feel.

Brando: Yeah. Most days, I’m doing okay. You know, then every once in a while, something occurs to me, and my first thought is, “man, I can’t wait to do that with Liam.” And, uh… uh, but, you know, then I remember he’s — he’s gone. But, uh, you know, I’m — I’m focusing more on my love for Liam rather than the pain of losing him.

Lucy: And that is beautiful. Is — is Sasha able to do the same?

Brando: Sasha and I grieve differently. But that’s why I’m hoping that the prospect of our future together is, um, comforting to her.

Nina: So glad he’s gone. But I shouldn’t blame him. He’s only following Michael and Willow’s orders.

Sasha: I’m really surprised that they’re trying to use the press against you.

Nina: Well, Michael, he blames me for the end of his parents’ marriage, and that sleazy reporter is my punishment.

Sasha: I’m — I’m sorry there’s so much discord.

Nina: Yeah.

Sasha: But I-I can’t get in the middle. Michael and Willow are my friends.

Nina: No, Sasha, I would never ask you to choose sides.

Sasha: Thank you.

Nina: Yeah.

Sasha: Look, from Michael’s perspective, it’s probably easier to blame you for what happened. But I have seen enough to know that nobody tells Sonny Corinthos what to do.

Nina: Hey, what’s going on? Something bothering you?

Sasha: Do you, um… do you ever feel unsafe with Sonny?

Nina: Because of Sonny’s business?

Sasha: No, I mean more because of what Sonny needs to do to stay in business.

Nina: Are you — are you referring to the attempted robbery at Charlie’s? Sonny — yeah, he was there, and he was protecting me. And Brando was right next to him.

Sasha: Yeah, that’s — that’s part of the problem. Brando didn’t hesitate. He just ran right into the fight.

Nina: I know how much the idea of losing Brando just terrifies you. But he doesn’t work for Sonny anymore. He just happened to be there.

Sasha: Still, Nina, I-I heard the robbers made bail. I mean, what if they come after Brando as some kind of revenge?

Nina: Sonny’s aware of the bail. And he’s taking care of it.

Sasha: Does that mean that he killed them?

Dante: I’m listening, as your son.

Sonny: I went to see Michael. Him and I got into it, and, uh, he — he turned his back on me.

Dante: I know things have been strained between you two for a while.

Sonny: It’s not just strained now, ’cause we’re done. He — he doesn’t want anything to do with me.

Dante: I mean, I — whoa. Just slow down. Hold on. Hey. Now, just tell me what happened. Maybe it’s not as bad as you think it is.

Sonny: I went to, you know, uh, the gatehouse, talked to Willow, ’cause maybe she could get us together. And Michael walks in, he blames me for using her to get to him.

Dante: Well, yeah. Okay, dad, I can see how he might think that.

Sonny: Oh, really? So now two of my sons see me in the worst possible — no, I don’t want to ta– I don’t — I can’t talk about this.

[ Vehicle bell dinging ]

Harmony: You won’t feel a thing. Okay. Just got to get you in the driver’s seat. A-and then I got to get the rock from the brake pedal to the gas and then the car will go right off the cliff.

[ Rustling ]

The role of Alexis is temporarily being played by Stephanie Erb.

[ Beeping ]

[ Engine shuts off ]

Alexis: Harmony? What are you doing up here?

Elizabeth: I’m glad they have non-caffeinated tea here. I’m wound up enough as it is.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Elizabeth: It’s Cameron. Oh, good. He’s staying with a friend in the dorms tonight.

Finn: Good. Yeah. And your room should be ready soon.

Elizabeth: Okay. This actually feels pretty good.

Finn: Yeah, what’s that?

Elizabeth: It feels normal seeing people out and about, meeting for dinner. You were right. It was good for me to get out of that house.

Lucy: Hey, there.

Elizabeth: Hi.

Finn: Hi, lucy.

Elizabeth: Hi.

Lucy: Listen, um, I hope you don’t mind me asking, but I just wanted to know, how did Aiden’s school project go?

Elizabeth: Oh, uh, yeah, Chase told us that Aiden was questioning you about the spirit world. You should know there was never a school project. He was just using that as a cover story.

Lucy: Oh, wow. Okay, but I can empathize, because, you know, you do tend to get ridiculed if you show any belief in the supernatural.

Finn: There’s an explanation for that. The supernatural isn’t, you know, real.

Lucy: Okay, doctor, we will have to agree to disagree, because I do believe that when our loved ones die, they don’t just disappear.

Finn: Are you the reason that Aiden believes that Franco is haunting his family?

Franco? Uh, we didn’t talk about Franco at all. He was just asking me questions. And he seemed really genuinely curious.

Finn: What you did was incredibly irresponsible, Lucy.

Michael: I want to apologize for having that — that argument in front of you.

Willow: No. No, don’t apologize. Look, as painful as it was to witness the argument, it also helped to clarify things.

Michael: Look, my father always claimed to put his family first, right? It was his justification for everything that he did. He was a dangerous man, but he was loyal to his family. He’s an alleged crime lord, but he’s devoted to his family. And now he just looks like a hypocrite. I mean, where was his loyalty to — to my mother and — and our family? He went after what he wanted, and he wanted Nina.

Willow: Nina obviously wanted him, too.

Michael: My parents… have broken up before, and my dad’s cheated on my mom before, but… …I was too young to understand then, but now? Ah. Being a father, I just — I see how destructive and — and selfish my father’s ways are. I don’t want Wiley having that as a role model.

Willow: I can understand that.

Michael: I want to be better for Wiley. I want him to be proud of the name Corinthos.

Willow: You didn’t just say that to hurt your father.

Michael: No, I said it because it’s true. I don’t — I don’t want to take back the name Quartermaine. Yes, that — that’s the easy way out. But — but Morgan was a Corinthos, and I want to share that name with him forever. What I want to do is I want to remove the stain from our family name and — and tear down my father’s corrupt empire that he built on greed and violence.

Dante: I’m not taking sides here.

Sonny: Well, it just kind of sounded that way.

Dante: Really? Because I said that I, uh, understood Michael’s perspective?

Sonny: I understand that — that Michael wants to protect his mother, but there’s a lot more going on here, Dante. And this should be between me and his mother. What goes on with — with me and Nina, our relationship is no one’s business.

Dante: Hm.

Sonny: So — I mean, that’s what I think.

Dante: So you don’t see how Michael can take you having Nina in your life as being a tough pill for him to swallow? I mean, forget the fact that she kept you in Nixon Falls that whole time. She’s now going around town trying to erase all the bad stuff that Nelle did, too.

Sonny: Right, but we shouldn’t hold, uh, Nelle’s sins on Nina. Nina didn’t know that Nelle was her daughter until after she was dead, right?

Dante: Okay, fine, so put Nelle to the side. Nina’s done enough things on her own personally…

Sonny: Right.

Dante: …Questionable things, maybe even illegal things.

Sonny: Okay, listen to me.

Dante: Yeah.

Sonny: We’ve all done things in our past that we regret. Even you.

Dante: Yeah. You’re damn right I have. I never said I was perfect.

Sonny: No, you didn’t, but sometimes, you know — we should not judge until we’ve walked in somebody else’s shoes. But if that’s what you came here to do, tell me how you really feel.

Harmony: How did you know I was here?

Alexis: Something you said last night. That it was peaceful up here. Harmony, what is going on? Whose car is that? Carly’s?

Harmony: You shouldn’t be here, Alexis.

Alexis: I want to help you, but — but first, I need to understand what happened. When I got home, the living room was torn apart.

Harmony: It doesn’t matter. That doesn’t matter. I’m handling it.

Alexis: You burned some papers in the fireplace, but one of the sheets didn’t burn completely. I-I recognized Neil Byrne’s handwriting. Harmony, those were Neil’s papers. How did you get them?

Harmony: Why did you have come looking for me, Alexis.

Alexis: All the times I mentioned Neil, you never said that you knew him. A-and now you have some of his papers? How is that possible?

Harmony: I wish Neil’s brother never came to Port Charles.

Alexis: Brendon? I-I don’t understand. Are you saying that Brendon had some of Neil’s papers?

Harmony: I was hoping that he would — he would just go away, that he would just disappear!

Alexis: Harmony, what are you saying?

Harmony: He — he was — he was threatening me. [ Breathes heavily ] I had to stop him.

Alexis: Harmony. Did you kill Brendon?

Dante: You really want the truth? Well, here it is. You can be a real prickly son of a bitch. You know that? And you got a mean temper. We all do, but the problem is, once that anger gets ahold of us, we can’t be reached. So you just bit my head off because I said I understood where Michael was coming from. You — you really don’t think that he’s gonna be angry about the fact that you picked Nina over his mom?

Sonny: All I want is for him to act like an adult and respect his father.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Sonny: That’s all. That’s all I want. Is that — is that a lot to ask?

Dante: [ Chuckles ] Alright. I better take this. Maybe after, we’ll both cool down a little bit. What’s up?

Brando: Not exactly sure what I walked in on. You okay?

Sonny: After everything I’ve done for my family… …Michael has the audacity to tell me he’s ashamed of the Corinthos name. All I’ve done my whole life is try to give my kids a better life than I had.

Brando: I understand. If you ask me, that’s — that’s part of the problem.

Lucy: When Aiden was asking me all those questions about the spirit world, he — he wasn’t frightened at all. He seemed really, really interested. And I was not telling him ghost stories. I was just explaining that I do believe there are other planes of existence. And like I just said, Franco’s name never came up. We didn’t mention it. He didn’t, and neither did I.

Elizabeth: It’s okay. Thank you for clarifying. I know your intentions were good.

Finn: If I was out of line, Lucy, I sincerely apologize.

Lucy: Thank you. Apology accepted. You know, I-I get it. This whole situation has to be so nerve-racking for all of you.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Finn: Hey, that’s the front desk. Your room is ready. Um, I’ll tell you, why don’t I take your stuff up to your room and you can stay and finish your tea.

Elizabeth: Okay, sounds good. Thank you.

Finn: Alright. Have a great night, Lucy.

Lucy: Okay, you, listen, don’t — don’t take this the wrong way, okay? I’m just a little worried about you. You look exhausted.

Elizabeth: [ Laughs ] I am so tired. And now I’m hearing things.

Lucy: What? A-at your house?

Elizabeth: No, at — at work. I picked up the phone, and I could have sworn I heard a man say, “Don’t forget me,” which is the same message the intruder painted on a piece of artwork in my house.

Lucy: It’s really scary, huh?

Elizabeth: Yeah. Turns out it was just a patient reminding me to bring him an extra blanket, but for a moment… I don’t know.

Lucy: So, have you had… other moments like this?

Elizabeth: Wait. [ Chuckles ] Do you think I was talking to a ghost?

Harmony: Brendon found Neil’s files, and he found out the truth about Willow.

Alexis: Neil was your therapist?

Harmony: Court-appointed, and I never should have trusted him.

Alexis: You told Neil in a session that Willow wasn’t your biological daughter?

Harmony: I told him everything! Because he told me it was a safe space! And then he lost his license, and then guilt got the better of him. And that’s why I did it. I did it to protect Willow. I didn’t want to do it. Alexis, I begged him not to, but he was gonna tell.

Alexis: Who was going to tell? Brendon?

Harmony: No! Neil!

Alexis: Neil is dead. So is his brother. Explain this to me. What was Neil going to tell?

Harmony: Neil said he wanted to do the right thing, that Willow deserved to know who she really was. So…he was gonna tell. I had to stop him.

Alexis: Neil died of a drug overdose, which never made sense to me. Never seen him use drugs, let alone abuse them. And I was right. It was you. You injected Neil with those drugs. Oh, my god, Harmony. You killed Neil!

Elizabeth: Do you think Franco’s trying to contact me?

Lucy: Well, there are, uh, many documented cases of loved ones reaching out from beyond the grave.

Elizabeth: Documented how?

Lucy: Okay, in a lot of cultures, um, most cultures, really, uh, there are tales of supernatural beings. So why, if the acceptance of ghosts is sort of universally out there, why isn’t there more to that? Think about this. Think about this. This whole thing, these occurrences are really scaring you, right?

Elizabeth: Yes.

Lucy: Okay. But what if — what if you could look at it in a different way? What if you could take comfort in the fact that maybe, just maybe, somehow Franco is still with you?

Nina: Sonny said that he was handling the men that tried to rob us at Charlie’s. And he also told me that the men got the message.

Sasha: And you didn’t ask him what that meant?

Nina: No, I-I didn’t ask him.

Sasha: Because you didn’t want to know what Sonny did?

Nina: I just didn’t think it through.

Sasha: Nina, if — if you are gonna be part of Sonny’s life, don’t you think you have to decide how much you want to know about what he does in the name of business?

Nina: But Sonny isn’t part of my life. Not the way that you mean.

Sasha: But you would like to be involved with him, right?

Nina: I would.

Sonny: You know what, Brando? I just had it out with my two sons. I can’t really do it with you. I really can’t.

Brandon: Just to be clear… I’m not agreeing with Michael. Just the opposite, really. I happen to find Michael’s black-and-white perspective to be a bit naive. And that — that attitude, I mean, that comes directly from the privileged life that you provided. Unlike me, you know, didn’t have a dad around, or you, who grew up with Deke, who I know was violent. Michael — he’s never had to make it on his own. He’s always had you or the Quartermaines backing him up. Michael’s always had you putting him first. Always. And now that you’re finally thinking about your own happiness, he feels betrayed. Personally, I-I don’t think he should be treating you this way. I think he owes you more respect than that.

Willow: You’re furious with Sonny, deservedly so. But saying you want nothing to do with him, that’s a big decision.

Michael: No, my decision’s been made. I mean, you heard my father. If I wanted his forgiveness, I have to beg. I don’t want his — I don’t want his forgiveness. I called him out on his failure to live up to his own code. That’s it. I’m done.

Willow: I-I know. I totally understand what you’re saying. I just can’t help thinking about my own situation. I shut Harmony out of my life, also for good reason. But it’s only now that we’re developing an honest mother/daughter relationship. I missed out on having a mom in my life. I just don’t want you to face that same pain with your dad.

Harmony: When you came to Spring Ridge, I went out of my way to avoid you. Then I saw how much you needed a friend. I thought if I could help you that maybe it might make up —

Alexis: You thought that would make up for killing Neil?

Harmony: I just thought it was all over. And that no one would find out the truth about Willow. And I could just be your friend. And I could try to make you happy. But then Brendon came — came to town. And he found Neil’s files. And then he found out the truth about Willow. And he blackmailed me. We met right there, and I tried to give him money, but it wasn’t enough. And he threatened to tell Michael. And Michael was gonna tell Willow the truth — that she’s not my biological child. [ Crying ] And then we struggled. And then he — he fell over the c-cliff.

Alexis: Oh, my god, harmony. You’re out of your mind. You killed two people.

[ Thud ]

Alexis: What was that?

[ Thud ]

Alexis: Is someone in the car?

Elizabeth: I have thought about the possibility that it’s Franco’s presence behind all of these strange happenings. And in a way, I-it’s comforting to know that it’s just his spirit wanting to be remembered. I mean, it’s tempting. But it’s a stretch for me, especially after Chase got hurt.

Lucy: Yeah, I know. I-I am not trying to convert you or make you into some sort of believer or anything. I’m just offering you an alternative explanation, ’cause, see, if it were me, if it really was me going through this, I would want to do everything possible to figure out what is going on, right? So, well, I just — for me, peace of mind is everything.

Elizabeth: Okay, what do you mean by everything possible?

Lucy: If you were up for it, I would just suggest a very well-respected, trusted medium who I could maybe have go to your house and see if she senses a presence.

Finn: Room’s all set.

Lucy: Oh, and — and I-I have to go. I-I-I have another appointment. I got to go. So — but take care of yourself. Ta.

Finn: I really hope I didn’t scare Lucy away.

Elizabeth: [ Chuckles ] Nah, she’s tougher than that. And she’s used to people discounting her beliefs.

Finn: Mm. She’d have to be tough, considering what she believes in is total nonsense.

Michael: My father’s real business is organized crime and racketeering. Do we really want Wiley to idolize his grandfather?

Willow: Wow. I’ve never heard you say that so bluntly before.

Michael: Well, there’s no reason to — to protect him or to turn a blind eye. I’m not gonna sugarcoat who he is or what he does anymore.

Willow: I’m not defending Sonny in any way. I’m just thinking of you. I just know how much you love your dad.

Michael: I — [ Exhales sharply ] I love the man that my father used to be. I don’t even recognize this man. The father I grew up with had a code of honor. He valued loyalty. And now he’s broken the very code that he instilled in me. Right, I’m not — I’m not saying that I’m blameless. I-I’ve made — I’ve made mistakes in my life, but nothing compared to what my father has done to my family. I can’t forgive that.

Willow: [ Sighs ] I’m so sorry that this rift is tearing your family apart. Hey, I promise, I’ve got your back.

Sasha: Is that the first time you have admitted that to yourself, that you want to be in a relationship with Sonny?

Nina: It was. At least out loud. [ Chuckles ]

Sasha: Look, Nina. All I want is for you to be happy. But being in a relationship with Sonny Corinthos comes with a lot of strings. So I’m just gonna say… be careful, okay? I wouldn’t want to lose you.

Nina: Thank you for your honesty. And I feel the same way about you. I wouldn’t want to lose you, either. Okay, have we talked enough about me? How are you doing?

Sasha: It’s, um — it’s definitely difficult at times. But I’m just — I’m trying to focus on the future. God knows there are plenty of things in my past that I would love to forget… including what I put you through.

Nina: No, mnh-mnh. You never have to apologize to me about that ever again. Okay? We’re way beyond that.

Sasha: Oh. I’ve definitely had to pay a steep price for my mistakes.

Nina: W-what do you mean? Paid how?

Sasha: Just that, you know, you — you — you can’t lie to people and — and get them to love you under false pretenses and — and do things that you know to be wrong and then take drugs to dull the pain and think that it won’t cost you. There’s always a price. The scales get balanced.

Nina: Sasha… do you think that Liam’s death was a punishment of some sort for your past mistakes?

Harmony: There’s no one in the car!

[ Thud ]

Harmony: Just go. Alexis, please. Please. I’m gonna disappear. Okay?

Alexis: You’re really leaving town?

Harmony: Yeah. I promise.

Alexis: Alright, then. I won’t stop you.

[ Vehicle door closes ]

[ Trunk opening ]

Harmony: Alexis, no!

Alexis: Oh, my god. Carly! Carly! What have you done to her?

Elizabeth: Come on. Ease up. Aiden went to lucy with questions. She didn’t seek him out.

Finn: Mm. Did lucy have any other words of wisdom? Let me guess. Commune with the spirits. No, no. Cleanse the house with sage.

Elizabeth: Her heart is in the right place.

Finn: I don’t disagree with that for a moment. I-I just believe that science and common sense will lead us to the answers we need, not a Ouija board.

Nina: I’m begging you, begging you to listen to me. Liam’s death is not your fault. You’re not responsible for that.

Sasha: I know that.

Nina: Do you really know that, or are you just saying that so I’ll change the subject?

Sasha: No, Nina, I, um… I really do understand that.

Nina: I’m so sorry you have to go through this pain. But I want you to remember that there are so many people who love you. So many. Brando just happens to be first in the line.

Brando: I think that you just have to hope that once Michael calms down, he’ll come to his senses.

Sonny: Yeah. Thank you. I-I appreciate your feedback, Brando.

Dante: Hey. Uh, I just want to say one more thing. I’m not picking sides. Okay? I love you and Michael both. And I can understand his perspective. And at the same time, it does not mean that I’m judging you for keeping Nina in your life.

Sonny: Yeah, I see that. And…I apologize. I just get frustrated.

Dante: I know.

Sonny: And I take it out on you and…

Dante: It’s okay. I appreciate it. But maybe, uh, you know, you and Michael should fix this thing before you say something, you go too far, and can’t come back from it.

Sonny: I think you may be a few hours too late for that warning, ’cause Michael and I have — have already gone beyond that point.

Michael: I really appreciate your support on this. Means a lot.

Willow: I love you. I’m always going to be on your side. But I do have to say one thing.

Michael: Yeah, of course. I always want you to be honest with me.

Willow: As you work to distance yourself from your father, you need to guard against adopting the very ruthlessness that you hate to see in Sonny. You’re a good man. But Sonny was at one time, too, I imagine. I-I don’t want you to become the very thing you’re trying to protect Wiley from.

Alexis: Carly, can you hear me? Thank God you’re still alive. Harmony, what does Carly have to do with any of this?

Harmony: She came to your house. She saw Neil’s notes about me, and she — she knew too much. And now you do, too. I can’t let you leave.

On the next “General Hospital” —

Drew (to Portia): The less you know, the better.

Ava (to Finn): Never too soon to experience the finer things.

Maxie (to Brook Lynn): Why would you say something like that?

Dante: Who did this to you?

Nina: That’s the kind of emptiness that never goes away.

Curtis (to Sonny): Why the sudden interest?

Harmony: I won’t let you take Willow away from me!

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[Unsettling music]

Demon johnny: Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?

Jake: I gotta to warn gabi.

[Door slams] Guess I’m dancing with the devil after all.

[Sighs]Va: Jake? You okay?

Jake: [Sighing]

Rafe: Stick me with all this damn paperwork. Like I’ve got nothing better to do than stay here all night.

Nicole: Hey. I just heard that all the charges against ava were dropped. How the hell did that happen?

[Sighs]

[Door closes]

Marlena: So it’s true. The prodigal son returns.

Eric: What, you didn’t believe it?

Marlena: No, you told me on the phone. I just had to see it with my own eyes. Oh, bring it, bring it. Oh, my darling. Mm, mm. How I have missed you.

Eric: I’ve missed you too.

[Sighs]

Marlena: What, what, what– what is it?

Eric: No, it’s just that I– I feel bad that I just went back to africa so soon. I should have stuck around, made sure you fully recovered.

Marlena: No, no, no, I’m fine. And thanks to the help and the love of family and friends, you saved my soul. You set me free.

Eric: [Sighs]

Gabi: [Sighs]

Ej: Rough day at the office?

Gabi: What, is trask letting everybody out of jail?

Ej: [Chuckles] You seem surprised. I was sure you’d have heard about my exoneration by now.

Gabi: Guess I blocked it out.

Ej: Mm. Well, in case you blocked out the other equally-important part, I’m innocent. It turns out that the devil used belle black to set me up.

[Phone ringing]

Shawn: Thanks, uh– thanks for coming to see me.

Belle: Oh, I didn’T. I, uh–I came to see a client.

Shawn: Oh. Well, uh, look, before you do that, can you give me a few minutes to make my case?

Belle: What case?

Shawn: Like, the one where i try to convince you, my wife, the woman that I love more than anything in this world, that she should come home?

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

[Soft orchestration]

Shawn: This–this situation with jan is, um– it–it’s challenging.

Belle: Challenging?

Shawn: It–all right, it’s a nightmare, all right? It’s a total, total nightmare. But I miss you, belle. Look, and I know that you miss me, too.

Belle: This “situation” you’re referring to, let’s just call it what it is. You slept with a homicidal maniac whose only mission in life is to drive us apart. And now said maniac is having your baby.

Shawn: I am so sorry.

Belle: [Sniffles] You impregnated her, what, four months ago?

Shawn: Look, come on, can we not do this, please?

Belle: Yes or no?

Shawn: Yes.

Belle: Yes, on christmas eve. Otherwise known as our wedding anniversary. And did you tell me then that you had slept with her? Or did you allow me to believe I’d interrupted you before you had had sex?

Shawn: I thought that I was having sex with you, all right? But then you walked in, the real belle, and then the belle that was in bed with me, she turned into jan, and I was horrified.

Belle: Oh, so horrified that you confided in me? Your wife, the woman you love more than anything, you told me that moments after it happened?

Shawn: Look, no.

Belle: No. Did you tell me the next day?

Shawn: N-no.

Belle: No. In fact, you never told me at all.

Shawn: Listen, the reason why I did not tell you was because i knew that it was gonna hurt you. Worse than that, it was gonna traumatize you. You’d be devastated. All right? Just as I was. I just–I didn’t want to do that to you.

Belle: And it never occurred to you that that woman could be pregnant?

Shawn: I thought that I was in bed with you. And you’re on birth control.

Belle: But when I walked in on you, it was clear that the woman you were sleeping with was not me. And it still did not occur to you that she could have been knocked up?

Shawn: No, it did not.

Belle: Oh, my god. Well, can you concede that maybe it should have?

Shawn: Okay, yes. Yes, I can. Okay? But like I said, I was rattled. I was ashamed. I was–I was embarrassed. Okay? And even if that thought had crossed my mind, I mean, what would telling you have done?

Belle: God. Shawn, you really don’t get it, do you? This entire thing could have been avoided. She could have taken the morning after pill.

Shawn: Oh, no, no. You know damn well that jan would never have consented to that.

Belle: I could have gotten a court order.

Shawn: Wait, a court order?

Belle: Yes, shawn. What she did to you– making you believe that she was your wife and then manipulating you into bed with her, that is sexual assault. [Sighs] You know, the devil made it possible, but jan is the one who got you to have unprotected sex with her under false pretenses.

Shawn: Well, you know what? I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I’m so damn clueless. But unlike you, I don’t have a law degree. So that thought never even crossed my mind, all right? All I know is is that at that moment, I had made the biggest mistake of my life. And the horror of that mistake has been compounded– exponentially compounded by jan being pregnant. And if you think that this isn’t a total nightmare for me, let me assure you, aside from anything happening to you or to claire, god forbid, well, I cannot think of anything–anything in this world that would make me more miserable.

Belle: And I’m sorry that you’re so miserable. But still, I am just shocked and so disappointed that months went by without you telling me the truth and that I had to find out by some lunatic that you knocked up by having her call me down to statesville and showing me so proudly the fruits of this situation.

Shawn: Hey, listen– listen, you have every right to be angry. You do. Look, worse than angry. You–horrified. Okay? Just like I am.

Belle: [Sniffles]

Shawn: But belle, I can’t change the past. I can’T. I–I can’t change what the devil did. Okay? All I can do is I can promise you–promise you that I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you.

Belle: And how are you gonna do that?

Shawn: Look, by each– by each and every day proving and showing you that you are what is the most important thing in the world to me. You. Belle, I can do that. I can get us back there. I know I can do it. You just gotta give me a chance.

Eric: I’m relieved you’re okay, but I’m also disappointed.

Marlena: In what?

Eric: In myself. I really thought that I got rid of the devil for good, but then I let him jump into my sister.

Marlena: You didn’t let anything happen. Satan is–is a– a master of deception. Has been ever since the–

Eric: Minute he talked eve into tempting adam with an apple.

Gabi: [Sighs] So the devil set you up. Am I supposed to feel sorry for you?

Ej: [Chuckles lightly] I didn’t come for your sympathy, gabriella. I came for my job.

Gabi: Well, the position’s been filled. I mean, I told my assistant I wasn’t to be disturbed.

Ej: Obviously, she recognized me. Until recently, I was ceo of dimera.

Gabi: Co-ceo. And when the evidence turned up that you kidnapped sami, she fired you.

Ej: Evidence we now both know was planted by satan. If it were not for him, I wouldn’t have even been removed from my position. He is the only reason you are in that chair.

Gabi: Look, you can blame the devil all you want, but the cold, hard truth is johnny was the one who got me into this chair. Johnny gave me this position, and then he tried to get me into his bed.

Ava: Jake? You okay?

[Dramatic music]

Jake: [Sighs] Yeah, just had a nightmare.

Ava: Must have been a pretty bad one.

Jake: I’m fine.

Ava: You sure?

Jake: Yeah.

Ava: Hey, you don’t seem fine. Your heart is racing.

Limu emu

Ava: Sorry. Didn’t mean to make this weird.

Jake: You mean weirder than, uh, sleeping together without actually… sleeping together? Sharing a bed with a friend?

Ava: But I am your friend, jake. So if you want to tell me about your nightmare, I am happy to listen.

Jake: You know, honestly, I can’t remember. I’m gonna grab a shower.

[Soft emotional music]

[Phone ringing]

Belle: Okay, for argument’s sake, let’s say I do give you another chance. Then what?

Shawn: Then whatever– whatever you want. I–I’ll follow your lead. Look, I made a huge mistake not being honest with you. I hate–I hate that I didn’t tell you, and I– I hate that I hurt you. Okay, but I don’t want this to destroy our marriage. Just, I want–I want to figure this out with you. I mean, what do– what do you want?

Belle: Well, I know what I don’t want. [Sniffs] I don’t want jan spears to be a part of my life in any way, shape, or form.

Shawn: Well you–you’re not gonna have to worry about that.

Belle: Jan is the– the baby’s mother. If the baby is in your life and you’re in my life, then jan is in my life. Okay? And–and considering she’s tried to kill me, like, a dozen different ways, I just–I think it’s best if I steer clear.

Shawn: Hey, jan– jan is unpredictable, all right? So, I mean, we don’t know what she’s gonna do. So I don’t, maybe– maybe motherhood is gonna calm her down and mellow her out.

Belle: Oh, my god, you’ve got to be kidding me.

Shawn: No, look, I haven’t heard from her once since she told me about the baby. Not once.

[Phone rings]

[Phone beeps] Hello?

[Sighs]

Belle: [Sniffles]

Shawn: It’s statesville.

Belle: As you were saying?

Nicole: So ava tries to ruin your life and she walks? That’s insane. I hope you gave trask a piece of your mind.

Rafe: I would have, had she let me know before she released ava. But she just did it. Then she ordered me to arrest gwen, which led to this pile of paperwork, which is why I couldn’t see you last night. Sorry.

Nicole: No, I’m– I’m sorry, rafe.

Rafe: Yeah.

Nicole: Do you think you could take a break?

Rafe: I would love that. Yeah, I would. Maybe we can grab some breakfast at the pub?

Nicole: The pub?

Rafe: Yeah. That okay?

[Uneasy music]

Nicole: [Sighs]

Eric: I’m sorry I just didn’t come home sooner to help with belle. I was just, you know, i was off the grid. And I know you and john reached out.

Marlena: You don’t have to apologize. Look, we–we all pulled together and we saved your sister.

Eric: Thank god for that. And nobody was aware that she was possessed? Not even shawn?

Marlena: Well… susan banks did think the devil had gotten into belle, but ben thought it was somebody else.

Eric: Who?

Marlena: Johnny.

Ej: Johnny was trying to seduce you? Wasn’t he aware that you were dating my brother?

Gabi: Oh, yeah. He was aware. He just didn’t give a damn. Long story short, jake and I had big plans. And obviously johnny did too, so I suggested the three of us work together.

Ej: [Chuckles] In other words you wanted to convince my son to pool his shares with yours so you could take over dimera.

Gabi: Look, I’m all about business, but your little casanova wanted more. He kept pushing me to ditch his uncle jake and team up with him in more ways than one.

Ej: But you refused?

Gabi: Until I found out that my boyfriend was stabbing me in the back.

[Sighs] I mean, now we know it wasn’t my boyfriend, it was satan. I–I wanted to confront jake, to ask him why he tried to double-cross me.

Ej: So what stopped you?

Gabi: Oh, it was johnny. Johnny suggested that we make jake think we’re all on the same page and ambush him at the shareholder meeting, and vote chad out and me in.

Ej: So it was johnny’s idea to make you ceo?

Gabi: It was less about me and more about a power grab. I mean, you do know your son loves to flex. He was very quick to throw you under the bus, that’s for sure.

Ej: And after your victory, my son continued to pursue you romantically?

Gabi: Yeah, he wanted to “take our relationship to the next level.” But before that could happen, I found out that jake didn’t betray me. And I–I mean, I tried to fix things, but– well, it doesn’t even matter. You could–you don’t even have to take my word for it. You can ask your son.

Ej: I wish I could, but he’s gone. Giovanni is in italy doing some “soul-searching.”

Gabi: Great, well, I hope that works out for him. All right, well, you are all caught up now, so you can see yourself out. I do have an international corporation to run.

Ej: Gabriella… surely you remember how well we used to get on.

Gabi: What? When was that? Was that before you booted jake out of the family business?

Ej: And now it appears as though you and my brother are through. So why don’t you step aside and allow this innocent man to have his job back?

Gabi: [Scoffs] No.

Ej: Well, in that case, then, I suggest you remember I’m not as naive as my son. And I will always respect my father’s legacy. And by that, I mean I will not let it get run into the ground by an interloper. So don’t get too comfortable in that chair. It won’t be long before I put you in your place and reclaim mine.

Gabi: Ej, is that a threat?

Ej: No, no, no, gabriella. That’s a promise.

[Uneasy music]

Trelegy for copd.

Nicole: Uh, rafe, before we go to the pub, there’s something you should know.

Ava: Oh. Hope I’m not interrupting. I’m not sure if you just keep your trysts to the basic black conference table, or if maybe you were gonna sweep all those papers off the desk and go at it right there.

Nicole: [Scoffs]

Rafe: Ava, what the hell do you want?

[Dramatic music]

Gabi: [Sighs] Now who’s more insufferable? Ava vitali or ej dimera? You know what? Forget them. She’s a loser, he’s an unemployed loser, and you’re ceo.

[Sighs]

[Knock at door] Damn it. I thought I told you I was not to be disturbed!

[Tense music]

Eric: Johnny was possessed?

Marlena: Yeah, that’s what ben originally thought.

Eric: Well, is there any truth to that? I mean, he was in the room when the devil left you.

Marlena: Yeah. Uh, but then– then belle tried to choke me to death. I–it was–it was satan. And–and it would have been disastrous if johnny hadn’t come in when he did.

Eric: Belle? I mean, is she okay? I mean, I haven’t spoken to her yet, so–

Marlena: Yeah. Yeah, well, physically– physically, she’s okay. Um, and the devil is gone, but when he was here, something happened that absolutely devastated her.

Jan: What do you mean he refused to accept the call? Shawn-douglas brady is the father of my child, which means he can’t just blow me off. [Exhales] Try him again, please? And tell him this is an emergency.

Belle: Should have taken that call from your baby mama.

Shawn: Look, come on. That is not funny.

Belle: Who’s laughing? This is exactly what it’s gonna be like from now on. When jan calls, you have to talk to her.

Shawn: Okay, well, I’m talking to you right now about saving our marriage. All right? Jan can wait.

[Phone rings]

Belle: Apparently not.

[Phone rings]

[Phone beeps] Detective brady’s phone. Yeah, he’ll accept the charges. Here, now you can talk to her ’cause I don’t have anything left to say.

Shawn: Belle, just come home. Please let me–

Belle: No, I’m gonna be at my parents’.

Shawn: Okay, what, jan?

Jan: Is that any way to talk to the mother of your child? I can hear the anger in your voice. You’ve been talking to belle, haven’t you? We both know how she upsets you.

Shawn: I’m hanging up now.

Jan: You wouldn’t dare. Not if you care about the life of our unborn child. Stuff. We love stuff.

Eric: [Sighs] Jan spears pregnant with shawn’s baby? I mean, she’s done some horrible things, but this is–

Marlena: Yeah. And I feel a bit responsible.

Eric: Mom, belle can’t blame you for doing to devil’s work. Neither can shawn.

Marlena: No, no, no, they– they don’T. Thing is that belle is upset with her husband for his lie of omission. You know, he never told her that he slept with jan.

Eric: Oh.

Marlena: Oh, good. Thank you.

Eric: Well, you know what? I better go check on belle and see if there’s anything I can do.

Marlena: I’m sure she would love to hear from you.

Eric: Yeah.

Marlena: Have you bumped into anybody else since you’ve been back in town?

Eric: Nicole stopped by. Talked for a bit.

Marlena: Mm-hmm. How did that feel?

Eric: Are you asking as my mom, or the highly-esteemed psychiatrist?

Marlena: As both.

Eric: Well, we’re divorced. And I’m committed to the priesthood, and she’s committed to somebody else.

Rafe: Well, the one good thing about the charges being dropped is I don’t have to see you around here anymore.

Ava: Great, well I didn’t come to see you, I came to see gwen.

Nicole: Why? Rafe just told me you sold her out.

Ava: I did what I had to to save myself. I took no pleasure in it, and not that it’s any of your business, but I have come here to apologize.

Nicole: You expect us to believe that you’re gonna make amends with gwen when you haven’t even apologized to rafe for setting him up?

Ava: Oh, okay. Well, you see, gwen didn’t have sex with my best friend, or my boyfriend, behind my back and lie about it. Unlike some other people I know. Mm-hmm.

Nicole: Rafe didn’t deserve to go to prison, and you don’t deserve to be free.

Ava: Who do I speak to about seeing gwen?

Rafe: I’ll let her know you want to talk to her. This won’t take long. Uh, meet you at the pub?

Nicole: Yeah, I’ll, uh, see you there.

Rafe: Okay.

Ava: [Chuckles] Yeah, um, I’m just gonna wait here while you go check on gwen.

Rafe: Yeah, right. After everything you’ve done to me you think I’m gonna leave you alone in my office? Let’s go. Get out.

Ava: Okay, okay, okay.

Gabi: Jake, what are you doing here?

Jake: I need to talk to you.

Gabi: No, I already know all about how your new girlfriend threw your old girlfriend under the bus to frame my brother. And I told trask there’s no way–

Jake: Ava is not my girlfriend. Okay? And even if she was, once again, it’s none of your damn business.

Gabi: And you’re okay with her ratting out gwen to save her guilty ass?

Jake: Gwen put abigail and her family through hell, so no, I’m not gonna lose any sleep over that. But I’m not here to talk about her or ava.

Gabi: Then what do you want to talk about, jake?

Jake: The devil.

Jan: Shawn. I knew you’d come.

Shawn: Ah, ah, ah. Whatever it is, you have one minute.

Jan: Gosh. You’re being so cold to me. And I’m really vulnerable right now. Can you at least show a modicum of compassion?

Shawn: 30 seconds.

Jan: You can act like you don’t care, and like you feel nothing, but I know you do. I know you love our baby as much as I do.

[Sobs] And I’m scared, shawn. I’m really, really scared.

Shawn: Let’s skip it.

Jan: Skip what?

Shawn: The tears. The games. All this manipulative crap. Okay? Why don’t you just cut to the chase and tell me what the hell you want.

Belle: I got your text. You said it was important.

Ej: I need your help to take back dimera enterprises from gabi hernandez.

Belle: I am dimera’s general counsel. Gabi’s my boss.

Ej: Only until you advise me on how to get rid of her.

Belle: And why would you take my advice, ej? Because you ignore it all the time. I told you not to hand over your shares to–to johnny, and you did it anyway. And that is why gabi is ceo. And she got johnny to throw in with her.

Ej: Actually, I just spoke with gabriella, and she informed me that it was johnny’s idea that she run the company.

Belle: Well, you handed him all the power.

Ej: [Sighs] I told you at the time that I never imagined he would undermine me. I trusted my son.

Belle: Well, you should have trusted your attorney more.

Ej: [Sighs] You’re right. I was a fool to be so dismissive. But from now on, I will listen. I promise.

Belle: I appreciate that. But I still can’t advise you on this.

Ej: [Sighs]

Belle: [Sighs sarcastically] Off the record though, I would suggest that you get johnny to sign a document handing over his shares. And then you can form a voting block and remove gabi and put yourself back in.

Ej: There’s just one problem with that strategy.

Belle: What’s that?

Ej: Johnny’s left town. He’s gone to italy to “find himself.”

Belle: Hmm. Well, then I guess you’d have to first find him and then get his signature. And really, that’s all I’m gonna say about it.

Ej: [Chuckles] Terseness. Wonderful quality in an attorney. Means fewer billable hours. And now that you’ve heard all about me, why don’t you tell me how you’re doing. Please.

Belle: Well, that’s not a question I can really answer in just a few words.

Jan: I’m not trying to manipulate you.

Shawn: [Chuckles]

Jan: I have been cooperative, straightforward, and completely honest since I told you about our baby. And that’s why when I learned something about our child today, I thought you’d want to know immediately.

Shawn: Okay, well, I’m here. So tell me.

Jan: Well, as you obviously know, I’m in my second trimester and so I’ve had a more thorough exam. And I’m afraid there’s some bad news. I have a medical condition with a long, complicated name.

Shawn: You are so full of it.

Jan: I am not. What I have is serious. It’s so serious that I need to be on bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy.

Shawn: And, okay, what does that have to do with me?

Jan: Shawn, do you think that a person can get any rest in this hell hole? It is a nonstop cacophony. Shawn, you need to get me released immediately. For the sake of our baby.

Gabi: You want to talk about the devil. You mean your girlfriend?

Jake: For the last time, ava’s my roommate. It’s none of your business, but–

[Exhales heavily] I need help, gabi. And you’re the only person I can turn to.

Gabi: What do you need help with?

Jake: It’s about a dream that I had this morning.

Gabi: You came to talk to me about a dream?

Jake: Well, it’s more like a, I don’t know, it feels more like a memory I– you remember that stunt you pulled at dimera? Afterwards you left me in the conference room alone with johnny?

Gabi: W–what does that have to do with the devil?

Jake: Because in my dream, johnny wasn’t johnny, he was– he seemed possessed, all right? He had the–the freaky voice, the glowing eyes, the whole nine yards, and we went at it.

Gabi: You must have hit your head pretty hard, because when I got back you were out cold. Jake, jake, jake. Can you hear me? Jake! Johnny–johnny said you attacked him.

Jake: I don’t remember that. Okay, but in my dream, I punched the devil. Do you remember anything strange from that day?

Gabi: No.

Jake: You sure?

Gabi: Jake, what I remember from that day is that I got this job and I lost you.

Jake: This was a mistake. Sorry to bother you.

Gabi: Jake, hold on, wait–

Jake: What?

Gabi: Look, we–we both know the devil and johnny broke us up. Are you–are you thinking they’re one and the same?

[Phone rings]

Rafe: Gwen doesn’t want to see you.

Ava: Oh. Someone’s holding a grudge, is she?

Rafe: Mm. I don’t want to see you either. Get out of here and don’t come back.

Ava: Oh, I’m a free woman which means I can go wherever I damn well please.

Rafe: You know what? You got away this time. You so much as think about hurting me or nicole, you’re not gonna have to worry about speaking with gwen, because you’re gonna be in the same cell with her at statesville.

Ava: Hmm. Is this your “bad cop,” rafe? You never showed me this side when we were dating. If you had… we’d probably still be together.

[Phone rings]

Eric: Nicole’s with rafe now.

Marlena: She told you.

Eric: You want to know how I feel.

Marlena: I want to know that you’re okay.

Eric: I’m fine, mom. She’s my first love. Obviously, we’ll always have that connection, but we realized that we’re two different people who want two very different lives.

Marlena: So seeing her now is like seeing an old friend, hmm?

Eric: I may be a priest, but I’m still a human. But to be honest, when nicole, she–she walked through that door, my heart skipped a beat. She’ll still have that power over me.

[Emotional music]

We hit the bike trails every weekend

Jake: You know there was a time that I thought johnny was possessed? Ben and ciara did, too. Turns out the devil as in belle, and, well, johnny was just a jerk.

Gabi: What about your dream? I mean, it must mean something if you came all the way down here to ask for my help.

Jake: [Scoffs] It was a mistake. Again, sorry to bother you. Now get back to running dimera all by yourself.

Gabi: Jake, are you surprised that living under the same roof as ava vitali is giving you nightmares? I mean, I know you’re sleeping on the floor, but–

Jake: Eh, not anymore. In fact, we’re sharing a bed.

Gabi: Oh. Great. Thank you for the update!

Jake: Yeah. Nothing happened, for what it’s worth. I stayed on my side of the bed, ava stayed on hers.

Gabi: Yeah, that’ll last.

Marlena: Oh, nicole. How nice to see you.

Nicole: It’s nice to see you too, marlena. Are you good?

Marlena: Yes. All is well. Uh, but I’m afraid I can’t stay. I’ve gotta be– I’ve gotta be going. I will–I’ll be in touch with you?

Eric: You got it.

Marlena: Bye, sweetie.

Eric: Bye.

Marlena: Bye.

Nicole: Bye.

Eric: Coffee?

Nicole: I’ll–I’ll wait. Rafe’s meeting me here for breakfast. I–it was his suggestion. And I–I–

Eric: It’s okay. You don’t have to explain.

Nicole: Sorry.

Eric: What do you have to be sorry about?

Nicole: It’s just that– well, this is a little strange.

Eric: Wasn’t strange yesterday.

Nicole: Yeah, well– but now rafe’s about to walk through the door.

Eric: You’re afraid that I’m gonna be uncomfortable. Seeing you happy will never make me uncomfortable. Nicole, I’m truly happy you found somebody that puts you first, and can give you their whole heart. You deserve that. You really–you really do.

Rafe: [Sighs]

Eric: [Clears throat]

Belle: [Clears throat] I ran into shawn at the police station and…he wants me to come back home.

Ej: And what do you want?

Belle: I want to go back in time, and stop him from sleeping with jan, and make it so she’s not carrying his baby.

Ej: If only I could help you with that.

Belle: [Sniffles] You know what I wish? I wish that I could do what you did with sami when you found out she cheated with lucas, you know?

Ej: I banished her from my life.

Belle: I know. And as much as I want to banish all of this and just erase it from my consciousness forever, I can’T… because I love him. I love my husband.

[Sniffles]

Shawn: I just spoke to the prison doctor.

Jan: And she backed up what I said, didn’t she? I told you I wasn’t making this up. And now it’s as clear to you as it is to me. If I stay here, our child will not survive. I have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Jake: [Sighs]

[Sighs]

[Unsettling music]

Ava: Hey, roomie.

Jake: Hey. You still shaken up about your nightmare?

Jake: No, I’m fine.

Gabi: I will get you out of jake’s bed, if it’s the last thing I do.

Rafe: Whoa.

Rafe: Hey, man.

Eric: Hey.

Rafe: Hey, hey, hey.

Eric: Wow.

Rafe: When did you get into town?

Eric: Ah, yesterday.

Rafe: Ah.

Eric: You didn’t tell rafe?

Nicole: We didn’t see each other last night, and, um, I tried to tell you this morning at the station, but we were interrupted. Eric and I ran into each other yesterday morning.

Rafe: Yeah, well– that’s great, welcome back.

Eric: Thanks.

Rafe: So, uh, how long are you here for?

Eric: Ah, just a visit. Yeah, nicole, she, uh– she told me about the two of you and, uh– I–I wish you both happiness.

Rafe: Nice.

Belle: [Sniffles] I just, um– I just feel like I’m never gonna be happy again. You know? Like this is a life sentence.

Ej: I understand.

Belle: [Chuckles weakly]

Ej: But I can assure you that it’s not. You are a smart, strong, resilient woman. And I have no doubt you’ll find a way to make the best out of all of this.

Belle: How? Jan is crazy. And she’s heartless. And now she’s pregnant with my husband’s baby.

Ej: If you want your marriage to work, then it will. And if anybody tries to get in your way, they do so at their own peril.

Belle: [Chuckles]

Ej: I believe in you, belle. Believe in yourself.

Belle: Thank you. [Sniffles]

Shawn: So what do you want me to do, jan?

Jan: You’re an officer of the law. Pull some strings, call in some favors. Get me released.

Shawn: They’re not gonna let a nutjob with your record out of prison just because you’re pregnant, all right? Even if it is high-risk.

Jan: There are options other than letting me free.

Shawn: Okay, like what?

Jan: House arrest?

Shawn: Okay, whose house?

Jan: Yours.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Dramatic music ]

Thomas: So, steffy still doesn’t remember?

Ridge: No, she doesn’T.

Taylor: Steffy is trying her best, thomas. It’s going to be so hard on her when she remembers about finn.

Hope: Look, the longer that this goes on–

Brooke: Steffy can’t go on this way believing that she’s married to you, liam. You know, she’s becoming more and more emotionally dependent on you as the days go by.

Hope: But it’s not even that, mom. It’s the fact that she doesn’t even remember finn or that she shares the child with him.

Liam: Okay, listen. You know, I hear you guys, you’re preaching to the choir, and I’m concerned about hayes too. It’s just– from what taylor says, steffy is already regaining her strength. Right? So maybe her memories are not far behind.

Hope: But that could still take weeks or months or even years. We don’t know. Look, liam, if she’s going to find out that she isn’t married to you, then I do believe that you should be the one to tell her as gently and as sensitively as possible. But… steffy should know that you’re not her husband.

Brooke: We know it won’t be easy telling steffy. Knowing what this will do to her.

Hope: It will be a challenging time. But we are all committed to helping her through it.

Liam: No, no, no. I know. I get that. It’s just– like we all heard what taylor just said though, right?

Hope: But we also can’t let it go on forever. Liam, you aren’t married to her. And while letting her believe what she needs to believe right now might seem like the compassionate thing to do, it’s just delaying the inevitable. I truly believe that helping her come to terms with reality and working through that pain will be the kinder thing in the end. Plus, it might actually help her recall who shot finn and her.

Sheila: Why, steffy?

Why did you have to fight me?

Why couldn’t you just

let me be a part of your life?

I never meant for any of this

to happen. Finn is gone.

The son that I loved is dead

and now, now you’ve given me

no other choice.

Taylor: Sheila. How did olay top expensive creams?

Liam: Hey, I hear what you guys are saying, and it makes perfect sense. It’s just I’m thinking, like, if you’re coming from taylor’s–

Bridget: Sorry, am I interrupting?

Liam: No, no, no. Come, come.

Brooke: Maybe you could help. Hope and I are struggling with this plan that liam is supposed to play along with this idea that he is steffy’s husband.

Hope: And we know that you urge caution about telling the truth–

Bridget: Actually, I have just been reviewing steffy’s latest test results with neurology and everything is looking really good. She’s stable. She’s getting stronger. I think steffy can handle hearing the truth now.

Hope: Okay, that’s great. So, I mean, the longer this went on, it’s sort of been really hard to tell–

Ridge: Hey.

Liam: Hey, good timing.

Hope: Yeah, actually, we think that steffy is able to hear the truth that liam isn’t her husband.

Brooke: She’s getting stronger, so we don’t need to keep going on and on about this. Ridge, of course, there’s no pressure here. You and taylor should discuss it. Just as steffy’s doctor. I was just reviewing–

Thomas: Yeah, my mom is a doctor, too, her opinion–

Ridge: And she wants us to be catious, right?

Thomas: Yes. And for good reason. We shouldn’t rush into anything.

Liam: It’s not rushing. Nobody wants to do that. Nobody wants to put steffy’s recovery in jeopardy.

Hope: Well. If liam tells her, then we actually–

Thomas: Hold on, wait a second, why is liam telling her?

Ridge: Tell us.

Thomas: No, no, no, hold on. Look, I’m not saying that you shouldn’t tell her some of it, but– but– but about her husband and what happened to him. And that they have a child together and– look, you and mom should at least weigh in on this.

Liam: I agree with that. I didn’t– you and taylor should have this decision. I don’t want to overstep.

Ridge: I know you will tell her in the gentle, gentlest of ways, but we– this is concerning to us.

Hope: We are all concerned. We want– all of us want what’s best for steffy.

Ridge: You know what I want? I want to be there when you talk to her.

Sheila: I didn’t hear you come in. I’m sorry. I hope you don’t mind; I was just–

Taylor: I know what you’re doing. Sheila.

Sheila: You do?

Taylor: Yeah. Seeing steffy here, knowing that finn is gone, trying to make sense of how that’s even possible. But sheila, you have finn’s son, your grandson. We are so happy that steffy has regained consciousness. Soon, she’s going to remember who did this to her and finn. You want that too, don’t you? Hey, sweetie. How are you feeling?

Liam: Hey. How’s she doing?

Steffy: Much better now.

Thomas: What’s going on? Big brother in the house. Not going to get a hello.

Steffy: I’m glad you’re here. That all of you are here. I just don’t understand why you’re here.

Liam: So, steffy, the reason that sheila is here, is that she suffered a loss as well. We all have.

Taylor: Liam, what are– what are you doing?

Liam: Especially you.

Bridget: Taylor. I know how you feel, but after running all of her latest tests and consulting with the head of neurology and considering her progress, I– I do believe it’s time.

Taylor: I disagree. She’s still too fragile.

Steffy: Wait, for what? What’s going on? Liam, you’re my husband, you can tell me.

Liam: Yeah, uh… steffy, your memory– that– there are some things that you still can’t recall. And we all– we all feel like it’s– it’s our job now to help you fill in the blanks. I’m amber, I’ve lost 128 pounds with golo,

Hope: I hope I wasn’t being too demanding with liam because I don’t want him to think that I’m like being–

Brooke: No, no, no, no, no. Don’t worry. Liam understands why you feel the way you do. Besides, you heard bridget. Steffy is on her way back. And to carry on this illusion that she and liam are a married couple, that isn’t fair to anybody, especially to steffy. Bridget, is everything okay?

Hope: I mean, shouldn’t you be in there with them when they’re telling steffy?

Bridget: Oh, I’m close by if I’m needed, although I’m really hoping that I won’t be.

Brooke: How did taylor react when she found out what liam intended to do?

Bridget: Let’s just say she was not pleased.

Hope well, I’m sure you explained, right?

Bridget: Yeah, I told taylor exactly why I felt that it’s finally time.

Brooke: And I’m sure liam will be very gentle, very sensitive.

Hope: The entire family will be. No one wants steffy to suffer any more than she already has.

Bridget: Right. The reality is no one can protect her from what she’s about to hear.

Liam: Steffy, we are so grateful that you’re recovering. And look at you. You’re getting– you’re getting stronger and stronger every day.

Ridge: It’s what we hoped and prayed for.

Thomas: Yeah, you’re going to be up and around before you know it.

Liam: But there’s– there’s still some things that you have to know that you just haven’t been able to remember yet.

Steffy: That night, you mean? When I was shot?

Ridge: We’re going to find who did this to you. To both of you.

Steffy: Both? You said both of us.

Ridge: Yeah.

Liam: Um, there was someone else with you that night.

Steffy: I was with someone?

Liam: Yeah. Yeah. Finn. Dr. Jonathan finnegan. Does that sound familiar to you at all?

Taylor: Sweetie. He came into your life when you needed him most. An exceptional man.

Ridge: He saved your life.

Liam: Do you– do you remember that? Do you remember him at all?

Ridge: This, um… this is you and him.

Liam: I’m always going to love you and we do have a child together, kelly. But, you have another child. Hayes.

Steffy: What?

Liam: Beautiful little boy. A child that you share with finn.

Steffy: Hayes.

Liam: I’m not your husband. Steffy. You’re married to finn.

Steffy: Finn. Finn. Finn. Finn.

Liam: Yeah. Do you–

Steffy: I remember.

Liam: Do you remember?

Steffy: Yeah, I remember. Finn.

Taylor: That’s wonderful, sweetheart.

Steffy: My husband. My husband. Hayes, my son. My son. I want to see them. Please let me see them. If I go to sleep right now, I can get more….

Brooke: How are the kids?

Hope: Amelia says that they’re fine. Hayes is down for a nap, and she is putting together a puzzle with kelly too. Thankfully, they aren’t aware of what their mom is facing right now.

Bridget: Or what they’re about to face when they realize that finn is never coming home.

Hope: Kelly thought of him like a second dad and hayes, I mean, he’s so young, he’s barely had any time with him.

Brooke: Steffy will make sure that hayes knows how much finn loved him. And that finn would be here for him now if that were at all possible.

Hope: Only it’s not because some maniac with a gun went and– I just hope that steffy is able to identify whoever did this. And I get that it’s going to be horrific for her to relive. But the police barely have any leads, and without steffy’s help–

Bridget: Then the murderer could absolutely get away with this.

Brooke: Ridge will never let that happen. He’ll track down this criminal himself if he has to.

Hope: I just feel awful for steffy. She’s already been through hell and it’s not over yet.

Steffy: Finn and hayes. Where are they? When can I see them?

Ridge: Steffy–

Taylor: You have been through a very, very hard time and there are still some pieces that are– that are missing from that night.

Steffy: I just want to hold my son. I want to be with him and his daddy.

Liam: And we completely understand that. Just know for now that hayes is great. He’s in good hands.

Steffy: Good. Thank– thank you. So, hayes is at home with finn?

Thomas: Actually, hayes is with amelia right now.

Liam: Yeah, I’ve been, um… I’ve been going over the house to just kind of be with hayes and kelly, but usually he’s with amelia.

Steffy: When finn and i are at work?

Liam: Yeah, that’s right.

Steffy: Where is he now? Why isn’t finn here?

Ridge: I should be the one to tell you that you weren’t alone in that alley when you were shot.

Steffy: What are you saying, dad?

Ridge: Finn was there. He was brave and he was protecting you.

Taylor: He loved you so much, sweetheart.

Thomas: Yeah. Uh… finn was completely and totally devoted to you. To the very end.

Steffy: Loved. Very end. Why are you talking this way?

Taylor: I’m so sorry, sweetheart. Finn is gone.

Steffy: Gone?

Taylor: Yeah.

Ridge: He was shot that night and he didn’t survive.

Steffy: Finn’s gone? Finn’s gone.

Liam: I’m sorry, steffy.

Steffy: Why? What?

General Hospital Updates

Update written by Dustin

Sonny arrived at Michael and Willow’s house hoping that Willow would help Sonny in making amends with Michael. But, everything went sideways when Michael showed up and caught Sonny speaking to Willow. Michael said if Sonny had anything to say it should be to him directly.  Sonny told Michael that he never wanted the divorce, but Carly insisted and forced it through. Michael defended Carly and made it clear that she had made the right decision after catching Sonny in bed with Nina. 

Sonny said that he had forgiven Carly for infidelity once when he found Carly in bed with Jax, but Michael felt that his father was trying to justify cheating on Carly. Michael told Sonny that he was done with him and that he had contemplated changing his name back to Quartermaine.  But, he said that he would rather keep the name Corinthos and make the name stand for something that is not at all associated with Sonny’s business, crimes and violence.  Michael said that he and Wiley would make the name something to be proud of and Sonny’s legacy would just fade away. Sonny told Michael that he loved him, but he also said he would never forget the things that Michael had said.  He left Michael’s house, but once he was outside, he said, “Goodbye, son.”

Jordan  informed Liz that someone had jammed the cameras that Chase installed. Jordan also added that it was now clear that this was a deliberate action, possibly by someone who had once again bypassed the security system.  When Jordan left, Aiden argued that Franco’s ghost was behind all of these occurrences. But Finn told Aiden that Franco would never want Liz or her boys to feel unsafe in their home or frightened. So, they should consider living possibilities, and all of this left Liz extremely worried and concerned. Finn suggested the boys should live elsewhere and that Elizabeth should move into the Metro Court until they could find out exactly what is going on at Elizabeth’s house.  Elizabeth objected, saying she didn’t want to leave her home, but she did send Aiden back to Laura’s house.

Chase brought flowers to Brook Lynn and explained why he was late for Leo’s big day. Brook Lynn told Chase that she was concerned about him. Chase reassured her, and when he tried kissing her, they were interrupted by Michael and then later by Leo. Speaking of Leo, he got an explanation for why Chase missed his adoption party. Chase also gave Leo some advice about stage fright.  Leo told Brook Lynn that when Chase was living in the Quartermaine mansion, he would sometimes sing Brook Lynn’s songs.  Brook Lynn was surprised and Chase was a little embarrassed.  He admitted he really liked her demos.

Curtis met Marshall on the pier and confronted him over the sealed arrest record. Marshall said that Curtis had broken the law to get his records and got furious at him for invading his privacy. But, Curtis was more upset over Marshall pretending that he left his family for some life-changing thing. In reality, Marshall was arrested over a protest and sent to a mental hospital for evaluation. Marshall claimed that it was a mistake to reconnect with Curtis, but Curtis wanted to know the truth. Curtis wanted his father to stay in Port Charles. Curtis wanted a fresh start, so he asked about Marshall’s condition. This time Curtis told his father that he wanted answers from him. Marshall told Curtis to read the file he had stolen, because if the answers weren’t in there he certainly wouldn’t be getting any from him.

Alexis met Diane in her office and told her about Harmony’s recent behavior, which included how Harmony wanted to kill the Smoltz story. But, Diane convinced Alexis to run the story. And the duo also made a plan to put Harmony up at the Metro Court, while Diane would meet with Lucy and try to find Harmony permanent living arrangements.

Harmony told Carly that she was just burning personal documents and tax stuff when Carly arrived unexpectedly at Alexis’ house. Carly began grilling Harmony about her connection to Nina. Harmony denied that Nina was blackmailing her and denied that she had ever worked with Phyllis. Carly wanted to know why Harmony had said that she wished that Willow was part of her family. When Miller left the room for a while, Carly looked at the notes she left behind and found some pieces in the fireplace. Carly realized that Harmony was burning Dr. Neil Byrne’s psychiatric file notes from his sessions with Harmony and realized that Willow isn’t her biological daughter. Suddenly, Harmony confronted Carly while holding a syringe, she then attacked Carly. But, the syringe fell on the floor, and the two fought for it. Harmony is later shown sitting in Carly’s car with Carly unconscious in the trunk.  Harmony has a crazed look in her eyes.

Recap written by Christine

Jack and Phyllis were at the hotel talking about the accident. He marveled at the odds of three people they knew in separate cars being in the same accident. Jack thought the merciful part was that, according to the news, Rey died instantly, so he didn’t suffer. He was sure Ashland and Victoria were devastated. Phyllis knew Sharon was having a horrible time. Jack was going to visit Sharon later today. Phyllis shifted gears and said Diane was upstairs, and Kyle was on his way to town. Jack was dreading the conversation he had to have with his son. Phyllis was glad Jack didn’t tell Diane Kyle was on his way, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to restrain herself. Jack grumbled about Diane showing up unannounced and unwelcome.

Upstairs, Diane seemed upset. She remembered Jack lashing out at her. He was angry that she went back on their agreement and came to town before he spoke with Kyle. Diane had explained that she’d thought Phyllis was right that Kyle would leave without seeing her. She came because she just wanted to be close by. Jack said Kyle had the right to leave without seeing Diane. Furthermore, that’s what Jack wanted to happen. Diane wished Jack wouldn’t be so heartless. She asked if it was that impossible for him to believe she’d changed and was worthy of being a Kyle’s mother. He didn’t believe she changed. He couldn’t ignore the past and just take her word that she wouldn’t break Kyle’s heart. He spat that he didn’t want her in their lives.

Downstairs, Phyllis was glad to hear Jack put Diane in her place. He said it didn’t do any good, since she was still here and determined to spend time with Kyle. Phyllis had ways of keeping an eye on Diane. According to Phyllis, Diane was staying in her room, for the most part. Jack was hoping to tell Nikki about Diane soon, but given what happened last night, he was sure Nikki would be focused on Victoria and Ashland. He hoped Diane would stay hidden. Phyllis said Diane would stay hidden if she knew what was good for her. Meanwhile, Diane got fed up with hiding out. She put on her hat and sunglasses and left her room.

Jack was telling Phyllis about Kyle’s travel plans when they saw Diane exit the elevator. They rushed over and ordered her to go back to the room. Diane wasn’t planning to see anyone, she just wanted to stretch her legs and go for a walk. Jack didn’t want any of Diane’s enemies finding out she was alive before he had a chance to talk to Kyle. Phyllis said this was her lobby, and she wanted Diane out of it. She said perhaps they’d send a masseuse up to the room, and a bottle of wine, without arsenic. Diane commented that it sounded like a threat. Nikki came in, and Jack went over to her, while Phyllis hustled Diane back into the elevator.

Nikki wanted to know who that woman was that Phyllis put into the elevator. Jack asked how Victoria was. She was physically fine, but they were all shaken up about Rey. Jack said Rey was a good man. Nikki said Victoria was quite upset, even though it wasn’t her fault. Jack asked how Ashland was, and Nikki said he’d be fine. Nikki asked why Jack evaded her question about the woman in the elevator. She could tell he was hiding something. He asked if she had the time and emotional strength to discuss this. She was doing fine, and her meeting was canceled, so she had the time. He announced that Diane was alive, well and in Genoa City.

Nikki thought that this woman was an impostor, since Diane was dead. Jack said he and Phyllis had spoken to Diane at length. He explained that Diane had made an enemy of everyone in Genoa City, so she faked her own death and started a new life. Nikki spent years thinking she killed Diane in self defense. She asked how Diane pulled this off. Jack said Deacon Sharpe helped. Nikki called Deacon an SOB. He said Diane was still a master manipulator. Nikki insisted on seeing Diane.

“Don’t you dare leave this room without a word to me first, please,” Phyllis said. She and Diane were back upstairs in the suite. Diane wanted the free wine, and Phyllis said no. She wasn’t giving Diane a free massage either. Diane noted that Phyllis lied to her face. Phyllis was unapologetic. Phyllis said she’d lie to Diane until she understood the severity of the situation. Diane did understand. Phyllis said she could take more stringent measures, like taking Diane’s phone, handcuffing her to the bed or locking her in the closet. Diane told Phyllis to stay out of this, because this was about her, Jack and their son, not Phyllis. “This is very much about me,” Phyllis stated, noting that Kyle was her son in law. She refused to go anywhere.

Diane knew Summer and Kyle were married, but she refused to acknowledge she and Phyllis were on the same family tree. Phyllis found it equally abhorrent. Phyllis said whatever Diane did to Kyle affected Summer. Phyllis noted that Diane made an agreement not come to Genoa City until Kyle knew the truth and had time to process this. Diane asked when that would be. Phyllis said she had no idea. Phyllis said Diane was free to broadcast her return and parade around town, but she didn’t think Kyle would appreciate the lack of sensitivity. Diane said Phyllis had a talent for blowing things out of proportion. Diane was going to take a walk in disguise – she had a teeny bit of experience remaining undetected. Phyllis said not in Genoa City. Diane didn’t care what Phyllis believed – the only people who mattered to Diane were Jack and Kyle. Jack brought Nikki up to the room, and she came face to face with Diane. Phyllis smiled.

Kyle and Harrison arrived at the Abbott house. Their plane got in early. Nobody was home, even though Jack had said he’d be there all day. Kyle wondered what came up.

Mariah and Tessa were at home. Tessa was surprised Mariah wanted to be here instead of at Sharon’s. Mariah thought that Sharon would want some space after getting home from the morgue, since it seemed like having all those people around was getting to her. Tessa was surprised Faith decided to go to school. Mariah suggested that Faith wanted to keep busy. Mariah called Faith and left a message saying to reach out if she needed to talk. Mariah thought Rey and Sharon should’ve gotten many years together, but that was lost now. Noah dropped by to check on Mariah and Tessa. Noah felt horrible, but he knew it was nothing compared to what Sharon was feeling. He left the house hoping that Nick could help Sharon the way the rest of them couldn’t. Noah wanted to do something. Tessa suggested that just being there for Sharon would help. Noah felt like nothing would be enough. He couldn’t wrap his head around Rey’s life being cut so brutally short. He said Sharon and Rey were happy together. Tessa said Rey and Sharon worked really hard. Tessa said there was a quiet, beautiful intimacy between Rey and Sharon. Tessa said Rey made an effort to plan romantic nights, and Sharon always had a coffee waiting when he got off work.

“Fireworks are fabulous, but it’s nothing without a foundation,” Tessa added. What Rey and Sharon had felt like it could survive everything. Noah said it survived Sharon’s illness and Adam’s interference. Mariah worried for Sharon, and she felt sick about Rey, but underneath that, she was thinking about what it would be like to lose a person who was your whole life. Mariah felt selfish and guilty for even thinking that. Tessa thought Mariah’s feelings were natural. Mariah wondered if people were insane to even love so deeply when there was so much to lose. Noah said that it was hard to find love, so when you did, you had to hold onto it as hard as you can without fear. Tessa said she was safe and well, and she’d do anything to stay by Mariah’s side, for better or worse. Mariah believed that, and she said Tessa’s reassurance sounded a lot like wedding vows. Mariah thought the wedding should be postponed. Tessa agreed, but Noah didn’t think that was fair to Sharon.

Noah noted that Mariah and Tessa chose a date – Friday the 13th. Tessa knew the next one wasn’t until January. He thought they should honor Sharon’s wishes and have the wedding. Mariah doubted Sharon knew what she wanted since she was in shock after the death of her husband. Noah conceded that in the past, Sharon didn’t always realize what was best for her, but after everything she’d been through, she was stronger than ever. He suggested that this wedding could help Sharon cope. Noah didn’t mean to pressure the couple. He said if they needed to postpone because of their grief, they should do so, but he didn’t think they should push it back for Sharon, when she made it clear that she didn’t want that. Mariah said Noah was pretty smart. Mariah suggested it was the perfect time – saying their vows while they grieved Rey and spreading a little hope and joy.

Nick and Sharon were at her place. He thought she should hold off on going to the morgue until she made plans about Rey’s funeral. Sharon realized it made sense for Celeste to want Rey buried in Miami. She asked what she should do – let Rey be buried in Miami or keep him here, where he built a life with her. He asked if she really wanted his opinion, or if she was thinking out loud. She truly wanted to know what he thought. He thought she should think about what Rey would want. Sharon smiled as she thought back to visiting Miami with Rey. A couple of times, Rey asked if Sharon could see herself moving to Florida and getting away from snowy Wisconsin. She thought he was joking, though. She thought part of Rey never left Miami, more than he was willing to admit. She knew he wished he could spend more time with his family there, and now they’d never get to see him again. She thought Rey would want to be buried near his family, where they could visit him and feel close.

Sharon said she’d call Celeste so she could make arrangements. Sharon was going to do as much as she could to help Celeste with that. Nick wanted Sharon to let the family help her with this, but she said she needed to do this herself. Once she was finished, she could focus on the wedding. Abby and Chance came by with food and condolences. Sharon knew Chance must be shattered to lose his partner and friend. Chance said some kind things about Rey’s impact on the community.

Nick said he’d call Celeste back while Sharon visited with her guests. He just wanted to do this for her. She appreciated that. He left the room. Abby and Chance said they were there for Sharon. Sharon noted that Chance was the last one to hear Rey’s voice. She asked how he sounded. Chance said Rey sounded normal. Sharon said the last time she saw Rey, she kissed him and said she loved him. It was very casual, and they’d done that many times before. She was glad she did that. She had no idea it would be their last goodbye. She cried, and Abby took Sharon’s hands.

Sharon apologized, but Chance and Abby made it clear they didn’t mind. Sharon said she had to keep herself together, or she’d turn into a puddle. According to Chance, Paul often said he respected Rey’s instincts. Rey was a good influence on the younger officers. Everyone knew Rey always had their back, and not just at work. Rey had been kind and patient and supportive with Chance. Chance knew Rey would be straight with him, even when it was tough. Chance would never forget Rey. Later, Abby and Chance left. Nick said Celeste was grateful Sharon was honoring her request. Nick called and made arrangements to have Rey transferred to Miami after the autopsy. Sharon realized that meant she didn’t have that much time to get to the morgue to say goodbye. She asked Nick to go with her. He said yes, but he asked if she was up for that. She wasn’t sure how she could ever be ready, but she knew she needed to see Rey.

Update written by Joseph

In Eli’s hospital room, Beth informs Lani that there is something that she needs to tell her. Beth thinks back to TR warning her to keep her mouth shut. Lani then asks if she’s okay. Beth tells Lani that she found out something tonight that Lani deserves to know.

Paulina asks what TR wants to prove to her. TR says he’s not the man he was back then and he’ll never hurt her again. TR asks Paulina for another chance and then they kiss.

Johnny remains chained up in the DiMera Crypt where he’s forced to watch the screen that the Devil created, showing Tripp and Chanel kissing at the Bistro. Tripp says he got Chanel’s mind off Johnny and Allie. They continue kissing as Johnny is furious.

Devil Allie has Ben drink the tea that she drugged. Ben talks about it being relaxing for his anxiety. Allie brings up how Ben was initially scared to have a baby because of his genes. Ben says he’s grateful that Marlena set him straight. Allie remarks that Ben obviously had nothing to worry about as the baby is going to be absolutely perfect..

TR tells Paulina how long he’s wanted to be with her like this again, like no time has passed at all. Paulina admits that he makes her feel like a young woman swept off her feet. TR points out that the twins are asleep and Chanel is out, so maybe he could sweep her off her feet again tonight.

Tripp and Chanel laugh together about being wasted and forgetting Johnny and Allie as they continue kissing. Johnny remains forced to watch. The waiter comes over and asks if they want to get a room. Chanel responds that it’s not a bad idea while Johnny argues having to watch.

Allie encourages that Ben and Ciara will be the best parents. Ben says he’s sorry but he suddenly feels sleepy. Allie says she will get going and let him sleep then. Allie shows Ben pictures of baby items they could have that belonged to Henry. Allie shows Ben a photo of a baby devil costume and says it’s her favorite which Ben questions. Allie calls it baby’s first Halloween and remarks that their little guy will be the most handsome devil…

Lani asks Beth what she deserves to know but Julie arrives, interrupting them. Julie says she didn’t know anyone else was there. Lani introduces Julie and Beth. Julie asks if Beth is a friend of Eli’s. Lani explains that Beth used to date TR. Julie asks what she is doing here. Lani informs Julie that Beth brought flowers. Beth explains that she met with Eli at the police station right before he went to the park, so she was probably the last person to see him before he got shot. Julie recalls being told that Eli was questioning her about TR and his background and that Beth confirmed TR had turned his life around. Julie asks if she has that right.

TR tells Paulina that he will make her a drink. Paulina stops him and says she’d love for him to sweep her off her feet again, but not tonight and not yet. TR questions if that’s because of Abe.

Abe goes to the Brady Pub and finds Kate working behind the counter. Abe didn’t know Kate was working at the Pub again. Kate explains that she’s just helping Roman out because she has a lot of free time on her hands. Abe doesn’t suppose she’d be interested in coming back to the mayor’s office. Kate thinks he’s fine without her. Abe is not so sure and then orders a double gin and tonic. Kate notes that it sounds serious. Abe responds that it’s just one of those days. Kate points out that she’s not an official bartender but she can listen if he wants to talk.

Johnny continues being forced to watch as Tripp suggests he and Chanel order another round of drinks. Johnny is hopeful that they don’t leave together. Tripp tries to order another round but the waiter decides they’ve had enough and he will call them a cab. Chanel guesses it’s destiny then and asks if they are going to her place or his.

Ben questions Allie dressing Henry up like the Devil for Halloween. Allie says it was adorable. Ben doesn’t remember that and gets weakened. Allie asks if he’s okay. Ben thinks there’s something in the tea. Allie claims it was just tea leaves from England. Ben sees an evil face in the bottom of his cup as Allie asks if he’s alright.

Abe tells Kate that love can be tricky. Abe explains to Kate how he had to bring Jules’ pacifier to Paulina and it looked like they settled in to a new normal as friendly co-grandparents and that’s all, but then Paulina kissed him and it rattled him, but he wishes it hadn’t. Kate asks Abe if he still has feelings for Paulina. Abe responds that he forgave Paulina for what she did but questions how he could ever trust her. Kate thinks he could find a way. Abe understands why Paulina lied to cover up Lani’s birth, but it wasn’t the first time, and he knows if he got involved with her again, then it wouldn’t be the last.

TR urges Paulina not to let Abe get her down on herself. TR argues that Abe doesn’t appreciate her the way he does. Paulina brings up how he used to appreciate her in the beginning and says it was the best feeling in the world, but along with that he had to be the center of her universe. TR says he was a kid. Paulina says she was naïve and it happened so fast with them. TR reminds her that he’s apologized for that. Paulina mentions that she forgave him for that but it’s not so easy to forget. TR asks if she’s trying to let him down gently. Paulina responds that she’s glad he is sober and that he’s here, but she wants to take things nice and slow. Paulina asks if he can understand that. TR clenches his fist behind the couch, but says he can understand. TR declares that he loves Paulina but he will be patient because she is worth it. TR tells her that whenever she’s ready, he will be waiting.

Tripp and Chanel talk about them her living with her mom and him living with his dad. Chanel decides on her place since Paulina will probably be tired from running after the twins all day. Tripp doesn’t know, so Chanel asks if he’d rather go home alone but Tripp says definitely not. Johnny screams that he loves Chanel and wishes she wouldn’t do this. Tripp and Chanel then exit the Bistro together.

Ben tells Allie that he must be seeing things. Allie offers to get him more tea but Ben says no as he’s done. Allie asks if Ben and Ciara are thinking about baby names. Devil Allie remarks that she’s always loved the name “Damien” and says you don’t hear it much anymore because of that damn movie. Ben tells her that something is wrong. The Devil then informs Ben that he’s not Allie as her eyes turn yellow.

Lani confirms to Julie that Beth told Eli that TR was clean and sober for their entire relationship. TR then walks in and asks what Beth is doing there. Julie points out that Beth brought Eli flowers. Beth decides she’s intruded on their family time enough, so she wishes Lani and Eli the best. Beth then exits the room. Lani brings up that Beth said she had something to tell her, but guesses it wasn’t that important.

Abe tells Kate that the lies Paulina told shook him to his core. Abe thought Paulina made Kate’s blood boil. Kate responds that she’s come to appreciate Paulina after a conversation they had a while back, the same day that Abe told Paulina that he could forgive her but didn’t think he could ever trust her again. Abe questions Paulina confiding in Kate. Kate confirms that Paulina told her everything about her story and her suffering, so she understood why Paulina lied to everybody. Kate says she was sorry for judging Paulina without knowing the facts. Kate hopes that Abe will give Paulina another chance because they obviously have feelings for each other and she remembers when Paulina made Abe a very happy man.

Paulina sits alone at home now and thinks back to kissing Abe and then to kissing TR. Chanel and Tripp then come in drunk. Chanel thought Paulina would be in bed. Paulina says she’s wrong and questions what’s going on here. Chanel tries to say goodnight and says they are just going to her room but Paulina says the hell they are.

Ben realizes Allie is the Devil and that the Devil drugged him. The Devil reminds Ben that he was after his baby and he still is.

TR asks how Eli is doing. Lani tells him that he’s the same. TR says he’s sorry but encourages her to hang in there and she’ll get her miracle. TR asks about Beth wanting to tell Lani something. Lani says she doesn’t know but Beth just said she found out something today that she thought she should know. TR finds it strange that she didn’t say what it was. Lani guesses it wasn’t that important if she left without telling her. Julie notes that Beth was distracted by TR coming in and guesses their relationship didn’t end well. TR questions why she would say that.

Abe tells Kate that when he went to Paulina’s, she was expecting TR since he promised to help with the twins but didn’t show. Kate thought she was terrified of him. Abe explains that she was when he first came to town, but he’s using the crisis with Eli since Paulina is so vulnerable. Abe thinks TR sees the opportunity to be there. Kate guesses TR swears that he turned his life around which Abe confirms. Kate asks if Abe believes it. Abe says it doesn’t matter what he believes because Paulina does and that’s what matters.

Paulina declares that Chanel and Tripp are not going in to Chanel’s bedroom. Chanel argues that she owns her own business and makes her own way so she can do whatever she wants. Paulina says not under her roof and while they are both drunk. Paulina refuses to let them try to pay back Johnny and Allie when they just would hurt themselves more in the process. Chanel complains that they just want to have fun. Paulina says they might just be looking for comfort but it would be cold in the morning.

The Devil tells Ben that he has big plans for his baby boy, but he needs Ben out of his way. Ben mentions Ciara. The Devil says she is sound asleep as he didn’t poison her since she is the vessel and he would not hurt the baby. Ben tries to get up, but collapses. The Devil declares that it’s curtains for Ben Weston.

Julie tells TR that it’s been her experience when a relationship ends, things are not going swimmingly. Julie adds that when TR showed up, Beth couldn’t get out of there fast enough. Lani suggests she could have somewhere to be. TR gives Lani pastries from the bakery. Julie comments on Eli’s hospital room having unexpected visitors. TR retorts that Eli is loved by a lot of people. TR assures that he won’t stay as he has a meeting. Julie asks for a moment of his time before he goes. TR asks what is on her mind. Julie points out that TR has been spending a lot of time with Lani and the twins. TR claims he’s just doing his best to lend a hand. Julie is sure Lani appreciates it but warns that those are her great grandbabies too. Julie knows that TR was a grave danger to Paulina and Lani in the past. Julie hopes that it’s all true that he’s really turned in to a new man, but if not and he hurts anybody that she loves, he will have her to deal with. TR says he understands loud and clear. TR assures that she has nothing to worry about and tells her to have a good evening as he then exits the room.

Paulina tells Chanel that she just told her the other day that she wanted a break from relationships. Paulina brings up Tripp reading Chanel the riot act about her relationship with Allie. Tripp admits he feels bad about that. Paulina questions this being how he says sorry. Paulina instructs Tripp to go home and sleep it off. Paulina decides that she will get Chanel some water and call Tripp a cab. Chanel hopes Tripp isn’t upset but she thinks Paulina is right. Tripp says he won’t remember this tomorrow but he’s glad they didn’t screw things up between them, so they can still be friends. Chanel says she would like to still be friends.

The Devil visits Johnny in the DiMera Crypt and asks how the show was. Johnny responds that Chanel and Tripp got wasted, were all over each other at the bar, and then they left together. The Devil asks if he wants to watch them hop in bed. Johnny says he doesn’t want to see that. Johnny asks what the Devil did to Ben. He responds that he did exactly as he promised and dealt with Ben Weston once and for all. Johnny asks what that means. The Devil calls it good news since Johnny won’t be alone anymore as he’s getting a crypt mate. Johnny asks if he didn’t kill Ben then. The Devil points out that no one else alive is in crypts and he’s not sure how much longer Johnny will be living either…

Chanel apologizes to Tripp for being a mess. Tripp says they were a mess together. Chanel talks about pretending to be cool and confident but it really hurts that Johnny went halfway around the world to get away from her. Tripp says if that’s really why Johnny left, then he’s an idiot. They joke about not remembering this in the morning. Paulina comes over with waters and tells Tripp that his cab is there. Tripp apologizes to her. Paulina tells him to sleep it off. Tripp thanks her for making him feel welcome. Chanel then walks Tripp out. Paulina gets a text from TR, wishing her sweet dreams and saying that he will be dreaming of her.

Kate asks if Abe really thinks Paulina would take TR back. Abe says he doesn’t know but she seems to be giving him a chance. Kate says that’s actually not surprising at all since that’s how abusive relationships work. Abe says he’s aware but it’s not easy to watch. Kate declares that if Paulina does take TR back, she feels it won’t end well and she’s going to need someone there to pick up the pieces.

Julie asks Lani if she came on to strong with TR. Lani says she loves Julie being direct and fierce. Julie wonders what Beth wanted to tell Lani. Lani is sure if it was that big of a deal, she will reach out again.

TR goes to Beth’s room at the Salem Inn. TR knocks on the door, saying he knows it’s late but he really needs to talk to her. Beth answers the door and asks what he wants. TR questions what she was doing at the hospital with Lani. Beth assures that she didn’t say anything. TR argues that she was going to. TR thought they had an agreement and that he could trust her, but if he can’t, they are going to have to find some other way to make sure she keeps their little secret. Beth says it’s late and tries to shut the door but he stops her and demands she not shut him out. Beth asks what he’s going to do. TR declares that he’s going to do what he should have done in the first place. TR slams the door shut as Beth screams.

The Devil chains Ben to the wall in the Crypt and tells Johnny that Ben is not dead yet. Ben wakes up and calls out for Ciara. The Devil tells Ben that Ciara isn’t there, but Johnny is, so they can keep each other company while he goes to keep Ciara company and their baby too.

General Hospital Updates

Update written by Dustin

At the Quartermaine mansion, Ned and Olivia welcomed their family and friends to celebrate the official adoption of Leo as Ned’s son, thus making Leo an official Quartermaine. Everyone toasted to Leo, Ned, and Olivia’s happiness.

Leo asked Brook Lynn why Chase hadn’t attended the celebration. Brook Lynn (unaware of what had happened to Chase) wondered the same thing and called Chase to leave a voice message. Olivia then mentioned that she’d encouraged Leo to enroll in theater therapy. Drew asked Olivia what theater therapy was, and Olivia explained that it was an afterschool program for kids on the spectrum to use theater to learn about speech, taking turns, and other cognitive behavior. Olivia asked Leo to recite the poem he was scheduled to read at the school production, at first Leo seemed receptive to the idea, but when it was time for him to do the reading, he screamed “No”, and ran out of the room. Leo told Olivia that he didn’t want to read the poem, either at the mansion or at the school production. Olivia was worried about Leo’s outburst, but Brook Lynn tried to assure Olivia that it was only a case of stage fright.

Also at the Quartermaine mansion, Carly recalled to Sam about Harmony being heavily drunk the previous night. Carly thought the situation with Nina had taken a rough toll on Harmony. Carly then confided to Sam that she felt Harmony knew more about “the Nina situation” than Harmony had let on.

Sam apologized to Dante again for going behind his back and retrieving a file from his phone. Sam told Dante that it had been a long time since she’d been with someone who “played by the rules.” Dante said that he had come down too hard on Sam. Dante told Sam he loved her; Sam told Dante that she loved him, too, and they kissed.

Elsewhere at the mansion, Ned overheard Drew and Michael discussing Aurora and ELQ and wanted to know what they were speaking about. Drew told Ned that the executive coach he’d met with the previous night had suggested a merger between ELQ and Aurora. Michael explained to Ned that merging the two companies would dilute Valentin’s shares and make it practically impossible for Valentin to continue serving with a majority of shares. Ned remarked that if the two companies merged, it would give a clear majority of shares to Drew. Ned wondered where that would leave him. Drew explained that they had not even thought about things that far ahead, the idea was just in its infancy stage.  But, Michael agreed it was a valid way to take power out of Valentin’s hands and put it somewhere else.

At Alexis’ house, Harmony stumbled down the stairs and was shocked at how much she’d had to drink the previous night. Harmony was appalled when she learned from Alexis that she had ordered Alexis a drink and insisted that one wouldn’t kill her. Alexis wanted to know what had upset Harmony so bad for her to get so drunk. Harmony was beyond furious when Alexis told her of Smoltz’s plan to do a five-part series on Nina’s background. Harmony not only refused to cooperate but demanded that Alexis not publish the piece at all. Harmony said that this was just opening up a can of worms that could not be closed. The more people looked into her past the more likely it would become that someone would uncover the fact that Willow was not Harmony’s biological child. Alexis encouraged Harmony to tell Willow the truth and reasoned that if anyone could understand how a person could be a mother to a child she hadn’t given birth to, it was Willow. But, Alexis assured Harmony that it was Harmony’s secret to keep. Harmony continued to push the idea of killing Smoltz’s series outright. “After everything I’ve done for you, it’s the least you can do for me!” Harmony said to a stunned Alexis. Harmony recalled that she had supported Alexis when she first arrived at Spring Ridge. Harmony added that she had stood by Alexis even after Alexis had made it clear that Harmony wasn’t worthy to be anyone’s friend. Alexis left for work and told Harmony that they needed to have a serious discussion to re-evaluate their living arrangement when she returned home. After Alexis left, a distraught Harmony smashed a vase on the floor.  Harmony takes her psychiatric file, which she stole from Brendan’s hotel room at the Metro Court and puts it in the fireplace.  She believes if she burns it, she will be set free from her racing thoughts.  She leaves the room to find matches and comes back to start the fire.  At that moment, Carly (who had been knocking while Harmony was out of ear shot), walks in the front door and sees Harmony preparing to burn the files.

At General Hospital, Chase was waiting for Portia to discharge him from his stay for observation.  Chase was found unconscious on the floor with a concussion at Elizabeth’s house the previous evening by Finn and Cameron.  

Finn and Elizabeth escorted Jordan (at her request) to Elizabeth’s house so that she could check the security feed from the security cameras Chase had installed.  When they arrived at Elizabeth’s house, Elizabeth downloaded the security app just as Chase had told her to do, but when the three of them went to review the footage it cut out right before whatever happened to Chase occurred.  Elizabeth inquired as to how that was possible.  Jordan said that the file had been corrupted.  Elizabeth looked extremely uneasy as yet another mysterious occurrence had not happened at her home.

At Pier 54, Trina found Marshall alone with his bag packed. Marshall confirmed that he was leaving town and said it would be easier on everyone involved. Trina didn’t understand Marshall’s sudden decision to leave. Trina reminded Marshall that he’d told her the truth was always worth fighting for, and she pointed out that Marshall seemed to be ignoring his own advice. Trina said that nothing could be worse than Marshall never seeing his family again. Trina added that she hoped to see Marshall again. Marshall replied that it had been a privilege getting to know Trina.

After Trina left, Marshall sat alone and waited for his ferry.

Selina dropped by the Savoy to provide Curtis with the documents he had requested. Selina placed the file on the bar and warned Curtis that while she hadn’t read the file herself, there would always be skeletons in a person’s closet if someone looked close enough. “Once you cross that line and open that file, there is no going back,” Selina cautioned.

Selina left as Curtis picked up the sealed file and started to go through its findings. Trina arrived and told Curtis that she’d just seen Marshall and that Marshall was leaving town.

Curtis headed to the Pier immediately and caught up to Marshall just as he was about to board his ferry.

“Running away again, huh?” Curtis asked Marshall.

Baker: So steffy, are you sure you’re up for this? You’re ready to pick up where we left off?

Steffy: I can try.

Baker: I know it’s a lot, but we’re hoping that today you can remember a little more about what happened that night you were shot.

Ridge: There’s no pressure. You can do this.

Baker: Now, you said that you’ve been having some memories. Do you remember who shot you?

Steffy: I’m starting to remember.

Taylor: Hi.

Liam: Hi. Any uh… any new information?

Taylor: Nope. But she is continuing to gain her strength.

Hope: Well, that’s good.

Brooke: What about her memory?

Taylor: Parts are still missing.

Liam: What about the part that lets her identify the shooter? Any luck there?

Hope: I mean, it’s scary to think that that person is still out there somewhere.

Brooke: Deputy chief baker and his team are excellent detectives. I can promise you, they will leave no stone unturned.

Liam: Well, they better not. I mean, they need to– to solve the case and put the shooter behind bars because that’s what finn deserves. That’s what steffy deserves.

Taylor: Yes, they do. They do. And we will stop at nothing to hold whoever did this accountable. But please, be patient. Okay? This is going to take a minute. Just don’t set your expectations too high. Steffy hasn’t been able to recall much of anything.

Brooke: Including who her husband is and isn’T.

Eric: Well, apparently no memories have resurfaced yet, but steffy is on the mend. She’s going to be all right. She’s regained consciousness. She’s gonna get better.

Quinn: That’s wonderful news, eric.

Eric: Yeah. It’s unbelievable. For steffy to be gunned down like that, like an animal. And finn… murdered in cold blood.

Quinn: It’S… horrific. And I– I can understand why you’ve been so distant lately. You know, it’S… you’ve a lot on your mind.

Carter: I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to interrupt.

Eric: Carter. I guess you weren’t expecting to see me here.

Carter: Steffy has a lot of people rooting for her, eric.

Quinn: That’s for sure.

Carter: And we all miss having her around the office.

Eric: Oh, I miss her too. I’ve been working from home a lot lately, and I come in here today and I realize that she’s not here. You know, what can I say? I’m a proud, hopeful grandfather. I know she’s gonna recover physically from this. She’ll be back, but emotionally, I worry. When her memory comes back and she realizes what’s happened and finn is gone and… but we’ll all be there to help her, won’t we?

Taylor: Steffy just regained consciousness yesterday. She’s in a– she’s in a very, very fragile state.

Hope: And– I mean, we all understand that, and we all want her to get better just as much as you do.

Brooke: But, do you really think it’s wise to let her think that finn never existed?

Taylor: Oh, well, that’s– that’s not what we’re doing.

Brooke: Steffy believes that she’s married to liam and that she only has one child.

Taylor: That’s right, brooke. Because my daughter is recovering trauma induced memory loss. Now, god willing, it’s only temporary, but we can’t force steffy to conjure up painful memories just because we think she’s ready. That could have damaging, long term consequences.

Baker: Can you give us anything about who put you here? Was it a male? A female?

Ridge: You’re in the alley. It’s dark. See anything? A face?

Steffy: Why? Why do I see… sheila?

And it’s easier than ever to get

your projects done right .

Eric: I have complete faith that steffy will get back on her feet.

Quinn: Well, we’ve all been praying for her, eric.

Carter: And we’ll continue to do so until she’s completely recovered.

Eric: Thank you. I have an appointment. I’ve gotta go.

Quinn: You do?

Eric: Yes. I’ll see you tonight, later. Okay?

Quinn: Okay, yeah. Looking forward to it. Poor eric.

[ Quinn sighing ] I think steffy’s shooting is really taking a toll on him.

Carter: Yeah, I can’t imagine how anxious he must be.

Quinn: Yeah, yeah. Well, he’s been in constant contact with ridge and with bridget, but I– I– I think it’s affecting him a lot more than he’s letting on. At least, I assume so, which is why he took off the way he did.

Carter: Quinn, what’s going on?

Quinn: Well, you know that eric and I have been working on our relationship and– and, I think we’ve been doing really– really well. You know, we found some solid ground. But, who knows? Maybe I’m kidding myself. Maybe my marriage is… is never gonna be the same after my affair with you.

Taylor: You know that I’m not going to risk my daughter’s health to ease your concerns, right?

Brooke: Taylor, I don’t want steffy to experience any setbacks either, but eventually, she is going to have to accept reality.

Taylor: And eventually, she will. But right now, the reality is that steffy doesn’t have the emotional capability to even understand and process what happened that awful night. She is experiencing a dissociative response to trauma.

Hope: We all get that. Liam is bringing steffy peace and comfort right now and that is fine, but at what point in letting that go on does it become a detriment to her recovery, to the kids, to hayes?

Brooke: How long are you going to keep hiding the truth from your daughter?

Taylor: As long as it takes for her to remember everything safely.

Liam: O– okay. All right. We’re all a little on edge here. Obviously, this is a very stressful, very– very complex, a very surprising chain of events and none of us anticipated it.

Brooke: That’s for sure.

Liam: And– and at some point, steffy is going to regain her memory, okay? And when that happens, she’s gonna have… she’s gonna have a lot to grieve. But, in the mean time, I’m just, I– what I want is for her to be able to identify who it was that shot her and finn.

Ridge: Sheila, what about her?

Steffy: Her face.

[ Sheila’s heart beating ] She was here the other day. I don’t want her here. What she’s done to our family.

Ridge: You need to go. Now.

Sheila: Of course. Fine. I– I don’t want to upset her. Steffy, I’m really so sorry, more than you’ll ever know.

Steffy: Seriously, dad, what is she doing back in our lives?

Ridge: We’ll get to all of that. We’ll explain all of that. Right now, you need to focus. Try to recreate what happened that night in the alley. It’s dark. What do you see? Do you see anything?

[ Steffy sighing ]

Steffy: I’m trying.

Baker: What about their clothing or hair color?

Ridge: Anything at all. Anything to find this guy.

Steffy: I can’t, I can’T.

Ridge: Okay.

Steffy: I’m sorry, dad.

Ridge: It’s all right. Don’t be sorry. It’s all right. Take a break. We’re gonna take a break. You just rest. You did a great job, kiddo. Her mind is still a blank.

Baker: She just needs a little more time. I’ll come back later. Try again.

Baker: Ms. Carter. I’d like to speak with you for a moment. And tonight’s winning numbers are 18,

Quinn: I really believed eric would be able to move past our affair.

Carter: Quinn, anyone can see how much your husband loves you. Never forget that, all right? Eric, he’s just… he has a lot on his plate with steffy in the hospital.

Quinn: I know that.

Carter: And not only that, but everything that brooke and ridge are dealing with and how eric’s affected by it?

Quinn: I know, I know. He’S… I just, I don’t know. What if… what if my husband is never going to be able to love me or trust me the way he used to.

Brooke: Now that we can talk privately, I mean, you have to understand how absurd this plan is, liam. Steffy can’t go on thinking that you’re her husband.

Steffy: I felt like I was getting close.

Ridge: It’ll come to you.

Steffy: All I can see is shadows. But nothing’s clear. It’s just… darkness. It all seems so hazy.

Taylor: Hey, cutie. How are you feeling?

Steffy: Frustrated.

Taylor: Why?

Ridge: Baker was here asking more questions.

Steffy: Thought I was making progress, but all I’m getting is just these… fuzzy images.

Taylor: Honey, fuzzy images are more than you had yesterday. That’s progress.

Steffy: But I’m not sure if it’S… if it’s real or am I just… creating a memory from what you and chief baker told me. All I know is I just wanna catch this person. They’re out there and they’re dangerous and… I don’t want them to hurt anyone else.

Taylor: You’re going to remember when you’re ready, okay?

Ridge: Your mother’s right. You will remember and when you do, we’re gonna put that person away forever.

Sheila: You want to talk to me?

Baker: I’m well aware of your criminal past with the forresters. Quite frankly, I find it remarkable that they allow you anywhere near them.

Sheila: My son is dead, deputy chief baker, and I am finn’s birth mother.

Baker: I realize that. And I am sorry for your loss.

Sheila: It’s a mother’s worst nightmare. To think that my son took his last breath in the middle of an alley that he was never even supposed to be in in the first place. Finn was not supposed to be there. He’d be alive. He’d be with me and my grandson. I’m devastated that he’s gone. I’m– you– uh… if you don’t have anymore questions, I could just really use a moment.

Baker: Oh, no, no. I’m done now. Um… but I would like to speak with you later in the future. Ms. Carter, please think. Is there anyone you could think of who would shoot your son and steffy forrester. Hi, I’m karen.

Brooke: I understand we need to be careful and sensitive to steffy’s mental state, but this situation is not sustainable. Steffy needs to know the facts. That finn is her husband and he was tragically taken from her during the shooting. And that he was taken from hayes, his son. A son that she has no recollection of. She’s not even aware that he exists.

Hope: That poor boy does need his mother. And yes, hayes has all of us, but…

Brooke: How long are we expected to play along?

Hope: I do think that deep down, steffy would want to know and… I think you know that as well as I do.

Brooke: She needs to be informed and somebody needs to tell her.

Hope: Well, if anyone is going to tell her, I think it should be–

Liam: Ridge.

Hope: You, liam.

Liam: Me?

Hope: You should be the one to tell her that you’re not her husband.

Taylor: No one’s going to force you to remember anything. You just– you just need to focus on letting us take care of you and healing. The rest will fall into place.

Steffy: I wanna get back home. Back to normal.

Ridge: Um, you will. You’re getting better every day. Everyone’s impressed how quickly you’re bouncing back.

Taylor: We’re just so grateful that you’re still with us, steffy. We… we almost lost you. You’re such a fighter. I have a feeling you’ll be walking out of here before you know it.

Steffy: I just want to get home. Back to kelly and liam. They’re the reason I keep fighting.

Taylor: I know. Why don’t you get some rest, sweetie? Love you.

Ridge: We’ll be right outside if you need us. I’m worried about her. She remembers some things, but nothing about finn and hayes?

Taylor: I know.

Ridge: So, how– how– how long do we wait? How long before she remembers everything?

Taylor: Everything? I– that’s really hard to say. But, we need to be patient, okay?

Ridge: Yep. It’s a long day, huh? Let me buy you some coffee.

Taylor: Let’s do it.

Ridge: Come on.

[ Intense music ]

Steffy: You hurt people to get what you want. You hurt brooke to have access to finn and hayes. Access you’re never gonna have. Everyone’s gonna know what you did, sheila. Everyone’s gonna know the truth. Finn is my husband. Hayes is my son. I’m in control. So, know when to give up.

Sheila: No!

Steffy: You shot your son. We need to get help.

Sheila: I didn’t even know he was here.

Steffy: Well, you’re going to prison for the rest of your life.

Sheila: Put it down, now!

Jack: What are chances that three people we know — three people — in separate cars are in the same awful accident?

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] I can’t wrap my head around it, actually.

Jack: The only mercy in it all, if you can call it that, is that rey didn’t suffer. The news said that he died instantly. Victoria and ashland are not as badly hurt. But, god, they’ve got to be devastated.

Phyllis: I’m sure sharon is having a horrible time.

Jack: Yeah, I’m gonna drop by and see her a little later today.

Phyllis: Mm, that’s nice. Yeah, in between knowing that diane is stuck upstairs in one of my hotel suites and kyle’s on his way from europe with harrison —

Jack: I barely slept last night thinking about the conversation I have to have with my son. When kyle finds out that diane is still alive, it’s gonna turn his world upside down.

Phyllis: Well, I’m glad you didn’t tell diane that he’s on his way. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to restrain herself.

Jack: Oh, which was made abundantly clear when i confronted her about showing up unannounced and unwelcome.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Jack: Not gonna answer me, huh?

Diane: Jack, I —

Jack: We had an agreement! You had no business being here until after I spoke with kyle.

Diane: Right, but — but I — I thought that maybe phyllis was right, that he wouldn’t want anything to do with me, that he would just turn right around and go back to milan and I wouldn’t have a chance to see him. So I — I just wanted to be close. I’m — I know that you can understand that.

Jack: It is still kyle’s prerogative to leave without seeing you.

Diane: And that’s what you’re hoping will happen, isn’t it?

Jack: Oh, you are damn right it is.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Tessa: I was surprised when you said you wanted to come home. I…thought you would want to be with sharon.

Mariah: Well, faith wanted to see moses before school, and my mom made it very clear that we couldn’t do anything for her. So I…I figured she would want some space after she came back from the morgue. Seemed like all those people around her, it was getting to her.

Tessa: Yeah, I was stunned when faith said she wanted to go to class.

Mariah: Maybe she thought being busier today was better.

Tessa: I hope that’s all there is to it.

Mariah: Should I call her?

Tessa: Couldn’t hurt.

Mariah: [ Exhales sharply ] Hey, uh, faith. I know you’re at school and you seem to be holding up alright, but, um, I just — I wanted to let you know, if — if you need to talk or text me or — or even if you want to come by. Tessa and I are always here for you. Okay, I love you. Bye.

Nick: So now that the kids are gone, I think you should hold off going to the morgue until you figure out what you want to do about rey’s funeral.

Sharon: I don’t know why i was so caught off guard by celeste’s request. She is his mother. It makes perfect sense that she would want him buried in miami. I guess I just wasn’t prepared for it, you know? I wasn’t prepared for any of this.

Nick: How could you be? It was…so sudden.

Sharon: So should I just agree to this…or should i fight to have my husband buried here in genoa city where he’s made a life here with me, with so many other people who loved and admired him?

Nick: Are you asking my opinion or just thinking out loud? ‘Cause I definitely don’t want to overstep.

Sharon: No, you wouldn’t be overstepping. I’d really like to hear your take on things.

Nick: Well, in that case, i think you should think about what rey would want.

Trelegy for copd.

Diane: I wish you wouldn’t be so heartless. I explained myself to you. I told you how much it would mean to me to reconnect with our son. Is it really so impossible for you to believe that I could’ve become a better person? Someone worthy of being kyle’s mother?

Jack: Yes, quite frankly, it is almost impossible for me to believe. Whether it’s true or not, i can’t ignore what you did in the past. I can’t just take your word for it that you won’t break kyle’s heart again.

Diane: Jack, please —

Jack: I told you this is why I don’t want you in our lives! And I hope to god kyle agrees.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Phyllis: So you put diane in her place. Good for you.

Jack: Yeah, fat lot of good it did. She’s still here and she’s determined to spend time with kyle.

Phyllis: Um…I have ways of keeping an eye on her. Just saying.

Jack: Well, hopefully diane will cooperate.

Phyllis: Well, she’s cooperating so far. She’s mainly in her room. She’s ordered room service about four times.

Jack: Okay, well, I thank you for any help you can give me. There are a lot of other people in this town who should know that diane is among the living — chief among them, nikki.

Phyllis: Yeah, since nikki thought she killed her.

Jack: Yeah, I was hoping to talk to her in private, soon, but given what happened last night, I’m sure she’s focused on victoria and ashland. I don’t want to add to her woes if the situation’s under control and diane continues to stay hidden.

Phyllis: Oh, she’ll continue, alright, if she knows what’s good for her.

Diane: [ Sighs ] This waiting is driving me nuts. I can’t — I can’t just sit here like this.

Tessa: [ Sighs ] Here you go.

Mariah: Thanks. You know, this used to be rey’s apartment before he moved in with my mom.

Tessa: That’s right.

Mariah: He loved my mom so much. And they should’ve had years and years together, and…that’s lost now. How did this happen?

Tessa: You’re right, it doesn’t make any sense.

[ Knock on door ]

Noah: It’s noah. Anyone home?

Tessa: Oh, yeah, come in.

Noah: Hey. You guys keeping it together?

Tessa: Trying.

Mariah: I imagine we’re doing about as good as you are. Just hating every minute of this.

Noah: Yeah. Yeah, it’s just…

[ Sighs ] I don’t know. I guess I really don’t have any words. Despite how horrible I feel, i know it’s nothing compared to what mom’s going through.

Mariah: How was she when you left?

Noah: Just trying to be strong. Not fall apart completely. I think she didn’t want to be vulnerable in front of us. I don’t know.

Tessa: Mm, that sounds like sharon.

Noah: I mean, that’s why i took off. I’m hoping that, you know, spending some time with dad will help. Maybe he can do something the rest of us can’T.

Sharon: Even though rey lived in wisconsin for years and made it his home, a part of him never left miami. When we would go visit there, he’d have the biggest smile on his face. He loved showing me his favorite spots. We had A…really great time just hanging out in celeste’s kitchen with his family, sitting around a table, laughing, playing cards. Nibbling on whatever celeste was cooking. You know, a couple of times, he asked me if I could ever make myself leave the snow and cold here, go live in sunny florida. He was joking, of course.

Nick: I mean, he wasn’t really joking, right? Especially not in february.

Sharon: I think a part of him never left miami. A lot more than he was ever willing to admit. And I know that he wished that he could spend more time with arturo and lola and celeste, and…now they’ll never see him again. I think rey would want to be buried near his family, where they could visit him and feel close to him.

Nick: Are you sure?

Sharon: I’m positive. Thanks, nick. Talking this out really helped.

Nick: Of course. Glad I could help.

Sharon: I’ll make the arrangements to have rey’s body transported to miami. Do you have a life insurance policy you no longer need? Now you can sell your policy – even a term policy – for an immediate cash payment. We thought we had planned carefully for our retirement. But we quickly realized we needed a way to supplement our income. If you have $100,000 or more of life insurance, you may qualify to sell your policy. Don’t cancel or let your policy lapse without finding out what it’s worth. Visit coventrydirect.Com to find out if your policy qualifies. Or call the number on your screen. Coventry direct, redefining insurance. For people who are a little intense about hydration.

Sharon: I should call celeste back and let her know the plan right away, so she can start getting things coordinated on her end. She’s gonna need to call a funeral home, priest for the services, and…a cemetery. But, you know, I’ll do as much as I can to help her out on my end.

Nick: Well, uh, you don’t have to do all this by yourself, you know.

Sharon: But, nick —

Nick: I’m just saying, let me and the rest of the family take some of this responsibility off your shoulders.

Sharon: It’s really okay. I — I want to do this. I need to do this for rey.

Nick: I understand.

Sharon: And then once everything’s taken care of, i can turn my attention to mariah and tessa’s wedding, because they are not going to delay their marriage because of this, not if I have anything to say about it.

[ Knock on door ]

Nick: Hey.

Abby: Hey.

Sharon: Hi.

Chance: Sharon, we’re — we’re really sorry.

Sharon: Thank you. Me too. He was your partner and he was your friend. I know how close the two of you were. You must be shattered.

Chance: This is a terrible loss for all of us, especially you and your family and all the people in this community that were inspired by him.

Abby: We just wanted to stop by and see how you were doing.

Sharon: Um, I’m hanging in.

Abby: Well, we don’t want to impose, so if you’d like, we can just drop this food off and, you know, come back and reach out another time. What would you prefer?

Mariah: I’m sure you’re just as lost as we are. Trying to figure out how to be there for mom.

Noah: Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I can take care of things around the house, look after faith, make sure she’s doing okay. That’s all important, but… I don’t know, I want to do more.

Tessa: I don’t know, I would just spend time with sharon. Show her how much you love her. That’ll bring her comfort. Maybe in time she’ll be willing to lean on you more. Just by being her amazing kids. That already makes such a world of difference.

Noah: Yeah, maybe. I don’t know, it’s just I feel like nothing’s gonna be enough. Nothing’s gonna take away the agony of rey’s death. His life was cut so brutally short, and I can’t seem to wrap my head around that. I mean, he was just — he was a really good guy.

Mariah: Rey was the best.

Noah: He was great to mom, all of us.

Mariah: [ Sighs ]

Noah: They were ridiculously happy together.

Tessa: I mean, that wasn’t by accident. They worked really hard. They went through a lot of stuff.

Mariah: Yeah, and they always came out the other side stronger for it.

Tessa: You know what always made an impression on me? There was this quiet, beautiful intimacy between the two of them. She always had coffee waiting for him whenever he had a break from work. And he always made an effort to plan these romantic nights — dinners, nights in.

Mariah: Yeah, that was really sweet.

Tessa: Fireworks are fabulous, but it’s nothing without a foundation. And what sharon and rey had…it felt like it could survive anything.

Noah: Adam’s interference, a battle with cancer.

Tessa: The way that rey took care of sharon when she was sick…took my breath away. He was so devoted to her, and she drew so much strength from him.

Mariah: That’s why I am so scared for her to lose him now, and I —

Tessa: What were you gonna say?

Mariah: No, I feel — I feel guilty and selfish for even thinking what I’m thinking. I mean, what’s wrong with me?

Jack: Kyle is gonna call me as soon as the jet lands. As much as I’m — whoa, whoa, whoa.

Phyllis: Oh. Oh, no.

Jack: Hey, where do you think you’re going?

Diane: I can’t stay cooped up in here. I am going crazy.

Phyllis: Well, you should’ve thought about that before you came into town.

Jack: Get back in the elevator now.

Diane: Who’s gonna recognize me? No one.

Phyllis: Oh, until you open your mouth, and then they’re gonna hear your voice and know it’s you.

Diane: I wasn’t planning on speaking to anyone, phyllis, just to walk around the park to stretch my legs. That is literally all I’m doing.

Phyllis: Are you kidding? She’s gonna screw everything up. You’re gonna screw everything up.

Jack: Yeah, and when one of your old enemies knows that you’re alive and in town before I have a chance to speak to kyle, this whole thing could blow up in your face. Are you willing to risk that just because you’re feeling a little antsy?

Diane: [ Scoffs ] Be ready for whatever life throws your way.

Phyllis: Diane, this is my hotel. Get out of the lobby — I’m serious. You don’t belong down here. If you want to relax, perhaps we’ll send a masseuse up to your room. That’d be great. Maybe a bottle of rosé. On the house, no arsenic.

Diane: Oh, that sounds lovely and not a threat at all.

Phyllis: No, let’s get up there. Come on, let’s go.

Jack: I’ll touch base later. Nikki. Hi.

Nikki: Hello.

Jack: I’m glad I saw you this morning. I’ve been thinking a lot about you.

Nikki: Before we get into that, what’s going on over there?

Jack: Where?

Nikki: Uh, phyllis leading some woman into the elevator in quite a hurry, too. Who was she?

Noah: Whatever you’re thinking, I’m sure it’s not nearly as bad as you’re making it out to be. And even if it were, who are we to judge?

Mariah: I feel sick about rey, and I’m so worried about mom. But underneath that, there’s this terror of what it would be like to go through that myself. To lose the person that…you love, who’s your whole life — I mean, how do you even move on from something like that?

Tessa: I wouldn’t feel guilty about having thoughts like that. After a tragedy like this, it brings up a lot of intense feelings and questions.

Mariah: Like, are people insane to love so fiercely when there’s so much to lose?

Noah: No. No, not at all. It’s hard enough to even find love. So when you do, you got to grab it and hold onto it for as long as you can. You can’t be scared of losing it. You just got to live it, come what may.

Tessa: Mariah…I am here, safe and well. And I would do anything to stay by your side, for better or for worse. You believe that, don’t you?

Mariah: I do. You know, it’s funny. The way you chose to reassure me, it sounded a lot like wedding vows.

Tessa: I thought the moment called for it.

Mariah: Well, we’re probably gonna have to wait a while for our wedding. I know mom said we couldn’t postpone, but I — I just can’t see how we should go through with it.

Tessa: I agree. We should wait.

Noah: Well, I don’t think we should just jump to any decisions. That wouldn’t be fair.

Mariah: Well, I mean, we wouldn’t be robbed of anything. A month ago, we didn’t even have a date.

Noah: I wasn’t thinking about you guys. I meant it wouldn’t be fair to mom.

Sharon: Why don’t you stay? I know how much you both cared about rey.

Nick: Yeah, sit down. Let me take this. I’ll put it away.

Abby: Sure, thanks.

Nick: While I’m doing that, let me get back to celeste, okay? You just visit with chance and abby. Like you said earlier, it would be better to get things underway sooner rather than later. Just let me do this for you, okay?

Sharon: Okay. I appreciate that.

Abby: Sharon, if there’s anything that you need, anything we can do…

Chance: Just say the word and we’re on it.

Sharon: Thank you. Things are pretty much under control right now.

Abby: Okay, well, if you change your mind…

Sharon: I appreciate that. Chance, you were the last person to hear rey’s voice.

Chance: Yeah, we — we spoke briefly on the phone as he was leaving the ranch.

Sharon: How did he sound?

Chance: Good. Like his usual self. Nothing stood out, if that’s what you’re asking. It was, uh — it was totally normal.

Sharon: When he was on his way out to go back to the house and pick up the tickets he’d left, I kissed him and said, “i love you.” It was very casual. It was no different than any of the other times we’d done that before, but…just I’m really glad we did that. I’m glad I told him. I had no idea that would be our last goodbye. Good checkup?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Sharon: Sorry about that.

Abby: Please don’t apologize.

Chance: Yeah, we want to hear whatever you feel like sharing.

Sharon: Well, I think I’ve shared enough for the moment ’cause if I get started, I’ll turn into a puddle on the floor, and I don’t want that to happen.

Abby: Understood.

Chance: You know, earlier, when you said you knew how much we cared about rey, you were so right. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner, a better friend. I was truly glad to be working with him again.

Sharon: I know he felt the same way about you.

Chance: And everyone at the force held him in such high regard. I mean, paul would say all the time how much he respected his instincts and what a good example he was for the younger officers and rookies.

Sharon: Yeah, he really liked mentoring. It was kind of — it was his thing.

Chance: I remember he used to say that it’s better to teach someone to do the right things from the beginning rather than make up for the mistakes along the way. You know, he wasn’t just a good investigator. We always knew you can count on rey, no matter what. You know, if things got hairy out in the field, you knew rey had your back. And that went way beyond work. When I was in a crisis, I was changing my mind 10 times a day about whether I was ready to go back to work or not, rey was kind and patient with me. He always gave me stellar advice. You know, he always supported me. Even when the conversations were tough, I…I knew rey would be straight with me. I’m gonna miss that very much. Rey was a good friend.

Abby: To both of us.

Chance: He’ll never be forgotten.

Phyllis: Go. Don’t you dare leave this room without alerting me first, please.

Diane: Okay. So are you going to call room service?

Phyllis: What are you talking about?

Diane: Well, you promised me a bottle of rosé, remember?

Phyllis: Get it yourself.

Diane: On the house.

Phyllis: No, we’re not doing that for you.

Diane: Phyllis —

Phyllis: And by the way, the masseuse, he’s not coming up. If you want a masseuse, you call for it on your own. Got it?

Diane: So in other words, you will lie to my face if it means keeping me locked up in here.

Phyllis: Yes! I will lie to your face until you understand the severity and the stakes of the situation.

Diane: I understand them perfectly.

Phyllis: Well, then act like you understand it, diane. Or more stringent measures will have to be taken.

Diane: [ Chuckles ] Like what?

Phyllis: Well, like possibly taking away your phone or…handcuffing you to that bed. Or locking you in the closet.

Diane: Hey, I’ve got a better idea. Why don’t you leave me the hell alone and stay out of this? Because you are constantly butting in where you don’t belong, and whether you like it or not, this is about jack and our son and me. Not you.

Phyllis: Oh, that’s where you’re wrong. This is very much about me. I’m not going anywhere.

Jack: How’s victoria doing?

Nikki: Physically, she’ll recover. But we’re all pretty shaken up about rey.

Jack: Just so tragic. He was a good man.

Nikki: From what i understand, nothing could’ve been done to save him. Victoria’s quite upset about it, even though it wasn’t her fault.

Jack: I’m sorry to hear that, but thank god she survived.

Nikki: Yes. Her injuries are minor. She’s gonna be okay.

Jack: What about ashland? How’s he doing?

Nikki: He’ll be fine.

Jack: Well, if there’s anything I can do to help, if —

Nikki: How about answering my earlier question? Why did you dance around the subject of that woman who got on the elevator with phyllis? Jack, I know you. I know when you’re being evasive, and if you keep it up, I’m gonna be more suspicious than I am now.

Jack: You’re bound to find this out eventually. I just don’t want you sandbagged. Are you sure you have the time and the emotional strength to handle this? I know you’re dealing with a lot at home.

Nikki: I’m quite well, thank you. And as far as my schedule, I was going to meet somebody here on newman business, but they canceled at the last minute.

Jack: There’s no easy way to say this.

Nikki: My god, jack, how bad can it be?

Jack: What I’m about to tell you is gonna blow your mind and then some.

Nikki: Okay, now you’re making me nervous. Whatever it is, will you please just tell me?

Jack: This is about diane jenkins and a dreadful night years ago when she was murdered in the park. Only she wasn’T. There was no murder — self-defense or otherwise. Because diane is not dead. She is alive and well and here in genoa city.

Why hide your skin

Noah: You have a date set — friday the 13th of may, last one of the year, right?

Tessa: Yeah, the next one isn’t until january.

Noah: Alright, then. You know, mom asked you to go along with the wedding as planned. I think you should honor her wishes.

Mariah: Noah, her husband just died. She’s in shock. I doubt she knows what she wants.

Noah: I’m sure she’s overwhelmed right now, and i agree, in the past, mom has not always realized what was best for her, but I can’t help but thinking that after everything she’s been through over the years, that she’s stronger now more than ever. So if she asks you to go along with the wedding, I think she means it. And who knows? Who knows? Maybe this will help her work through the pain of losing rey. This can be how you two help her cope. And I think the celebration needs to happen now more than ever.

Phyllis: Need I remind you that your son is also my son-in-law, so this is very much about me.

Diane: Hmm. Believe me, phyllis, I haven’t forgotten that kyle is married to summer. I just refuse to acknowledge that you and I are part of the same family tree.

Phyllis: Yeah, well, I find it equally abhorrent. Whatever you do to your son affects my daughter, you got it? You made it an agreement that you wouldn’t show up in genoa city until he had a chance to talk to kyle so kyle could process this.

Diane: And when exactly will that be?

Phyllis: I have no idea. Soon, I guess. Diane, if you want to parade around town and broadcast your resurrection, be my guest. I mean, I’m sure that kyle will appreciate your complete lack of discretion and your sensitivity.

Jack: I’m sorry, I know this is a giant bombshell I am dropping on you. I had hoped to sit with you and tell you all of this in private.

Nikki: I know you wouldn’t lie to me about this, jack, but it isn’t true. Diane jenkins is dead. Whoever that woman is is lying to you. It’s a trick.

Jack: Nikki, I’m telling you the truth. It is diane. I have seen her, I have spoken with her at length several times. So has phyllis. We both heard her sordid story. It is diane.

Nikki: Well, I don’t believe it. It simply cannot be.

Jack: Think back to that time. Diane had made an enemy of pretty much everyone she knew in genoa city with her lies and her schemes and her personal attacks. She felt the walls closing in, and she faked her own death to get out of this town and start her life in a new town.

Nikki: And how is that possible? Because there was a huge investigation into her death. I have spent all these years believing that I killed her in self-defense. So how did she manage to pull this off?

Jack: With a big assist from deacon sharpe.

Nikki: Deacon? That son of a bitch. And she has decided to rise from the dead now why?

Jack: She claims she is a changed woman. That she is reformed. And she wants another chance with kyle. She saw a giant opportunity, and she is still a master manipulator.

Nikki: Take me to her.

Jack: No, wait, nikki —

Nikki: Jack, I want to see this for myself. Does your plug-in fade too fast?

Mariah: I’m not sure you made your point, noah. Tell us how you really feel.

Noah: Alright, I might have gone a little overboard. I’m sorry, I don’t mean to pressure you guys. Obviously, it’s your decision, and if you want to push the wedding ’cause, you know, you’re grieving for rey and it all feels like a little too much to deal with, then by all means, please postpone. All I’m saying is don’t push it back for mom’s sake when she stated very clearly that’s not what she wants you to do.

Mariah: You’re pretty smart.

Noah: Don’t sound so surprised.

[ Chuckles ]

Tessa: Okay, so the wedding is still happening on schedule.

Mariah: Yeah.

Noah: Great.

Mariah: You know, now that i think about it, maybe it is the perfect time, say our vows in front of all the people we love while we’re hurting and missing rey. You know, try to spread a little hope and joy.

Tessa: And promise to be there for each other, no matter what.

Sharon: Thanks, you guys, for everything, for the food and the kind words about rey. That — it really meant a lot to me.

Chance: Well, if you need anything, consider us on call.

Abby: Make sure she doesn’t forget that.

Nick: I will, I promise.

Abby: Take care.

Chance: Bye.

Sharon: Appreciate it, you guys.

Nick: So I talked to celeste.

Sharon: What did she say?

Nick: Well, she is very, very grateful that you’re honoring her request. So I went ahead and made the arrangements to have rey transported down to miami after the autopsy’s finished.

Sharon: [ Sighs ] The autopsy. Oh, that means that I don’t have that much time to go to the morgue and see him. Um…would you go with me right now?

Nick: Sure. You up for that? Earlier, you weren’T.

Sharon: I don’t know how i could ever be ready to walk into that place, but…I need to see him. I need to say goodbye.

Kyle: This is your grandpa jack’s house, remember? He’s gonna be so happy to see you.

[ Groans ] Dad, we’re here! The plane got in early.

Harrison: Grandpa?

Kyle: Dad? Anybody home? Huh. Well, your grandpa said he’d be here waiting for us all morning. Something must’ve come up. Wonder what it could be.

Diane: You have a real talent for blowing things out of proportion when it suits your purpose. All I wanted to do was take a walk, get some fresh air, in disguise. I do have a teeny bit of practice when it comes to remaining undetected.

Phyllis: Not in genoa city, you don’T.

Diane: Oh, fine, fine. Fine! Go ahead and paint me as reckless and egocentric. I know I’m never going to convince you I’m a different person. And you know what, phyllis? I don’t care, because the only people that matter to me here are jack and kyle.

Phyllis: All the more reason to stay inside.

[ Knock on door ] That’s probably jack.

Jack: Change of plans.

Nikki: Where is she?

Proofread by Anita

Willow: Sonny. Hi.

Sonny: Is it alright if I come in?

Willow: Of — of course. [ Breathes sharply ] Um… Michael’s up at the main house.

[ Door closes ]

Willow: There was a little party today for Leo, to celebrate his adoption.

Sonny: It’s official? That’s great.

Willow: Seems really happy.

Sonny: Well, it’s — I think it’s best that Michael’s not here, ’cause I j– I wanted to talk to you in private.

Willow: About…?

Sonny: I just — I-I-I need to ask you a favor.

Chase: I’m sorry I’m late.

Brook Lynn: You should be. But these help.

[ Door closes ]

Brook Lynn: [ Clears throat ] You missed the party.

Chase: I figured. There was a, uh, situation.

Brook Lynn: I’m sure there was. Leo was really counting on you being here and was so bummed when you didn’t show.

Chase: Well, I tried to call, but my phone was smashed, and I don’T…have your number memorized.

Brook Lynn: Well, you should work on that.

Chase: I will.

Brook Lynn: Does your phone being smashed have anything to do with the situation you mentioned?

Chase: Yeah. Yeah. I was knocked out cold.

Brook Lynn: What? Oh, my god. Chase, are you okay? How badly were you hurt?

Chase: I’m okay.

Brook Lynn: Are you sure?

Chase: Yeah. I got a hard head.

Brook Lynn: [ Scoffs ] Don’t I know it.

Michael: Hey, Brook Lynn, do — do you have a minute? I need to talk to you about ELQ.

Finn: This can’t be a coincidence. Chase gets knocked out, and the footage that would show us what happened is mysteriously corrupted?

Jordan: I’d like to get my tech people on it. With your permission, Elizabeth, we can start by accessing the network remotely. If we hit a dead end, we can come in and retrieve the hardware.

Elizabeth: Yeah, whatever you think is best.

Finn: You know, this — this — this all but rules out the possibility of an accident, right? This has to be the intruder.

Elizabeth: Unless you believe in ghosts.

Curtis: Gate’s closed.

[ Air horn blows ]

Curtis: I guess you are too late to board. Looks like you’re gonna have to wait for the next one. That’ll give us an opportunity to talk.

[ Water splashing softly ]

Curtis: [ Sighs ]

Marshall: What’s that?

Curtis: It’s your arrest record. Your sealed arrest record.

[ Bag thuds on bench ]

Curtis: You know, man, I don’t get you. You made it seem like your arrest was some horrible, life-changing incident that justified you leaving your family. But now I know that wasn’t it at all.

Alexis: What would you like me to do? Do you want me to kill the story?

Harmony: Yes! It’s the least you can do! After everything I’ve done for you, you owe me that.

[ Knock on door ]

Diane: Is this a good time?

Alexis: [ Sighs ] I was just having an editorial debate with myself.

Diane: Oh, those are the best. About what?

Alexis: On whether to run Smoltz’s feature on Nina Reeves or kill it.

Diane: Why would you even think about doing that?

Harmony: [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ] I’m gonna burn these, and that’ll be the end of it. Damn. No matches.

[ Knock on door ]

Carly: [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ] Alexis?

[ Knock on door ]

Carly: Alexis? [ Sighs ] I know that’s Harmony’s car in the driveway.

[ Door opens ]

Carly: Hm. Harmony?

[ Door closes ]

Carly: I’m sorry to interrupt.

Harmony: Sure. Just give me one sec. I’m — I’m just burning some personal papers — tax documents, stuff like that.

Brook Lynn: Does this ELQ issue need to be ironed out right this second?

Michael: I’ll — I’ll — you know, I’ll keep it brief. You — you can stay if you want to, Chase. I know you already know enough about this company than you want to, anyway.

Chase: Truth.

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ] Okay, then. Lay it on me.

Michael: Okay. So, Drew and I have been brainstorming, and we think it’s a good idea to merge ELQ and Aurora, thereby diluting Valentin’s shares.

Brook Lynn: I can see the benefit in that. Good thinking.

Michael: I’m worried that Ned is less than enthusiastic.

Brook Lynn: Okay, so now we’re getting to the real problem.

Michael: Yeah, I-I think he — he feels his position is being threatened, and I just — I just want you to know that everything is aboveboard.

Brook Lynn: You want me to know so I can talk my dad off a ledge in case he goes into “scheme mode”?

Michael: Yeah, I-I — it would be nice to avoid the usual, uh, family dysfunction if we can.

Brook Lynn: Okay. I’ll keep an eye on him.

Michael: Alright. Thank you. Was good seeing you, Chase.

Chase: You, too.

Brook Lynn: If only someone had one of those conversations with me before I decided to fake a pregnancy. [ Scoffs ]

Chase: I don’t know. I think that pregnancy wound up doing a lot of good.

Jordan: Thanks. Keep me posted. The team was able to access the cameras and network remotely.

Finn: That’s good news.

Jordan: Yeah. So they’re running diagnostics. If all goes well [Sighs] We’ll have some answers soon.

Elizabeth: Thank you.

Finn: That’s good, yeah. Hey, listen, how concerned should we be that these incidents are escalating — they’re getting more threatening?

Jordan: That’s often the case with stalkers, and there is a need to be concerned. Have you thought of anything else since you were last questioned? Uh, someone close to you that’s no longer in your life that maybe had access to your home at some point?

Elizabeth: No. N-no one. And certainly not with access to the house. I’ve had all the locks changed. And — and you said when you and Cameron got home, the alarm was armed, right?

Finn: And working, yeah, yeah.

Jordan: The ability to circumvent the alarm indicates meticulous planning, similar to when Franco’s studio was destroyed. [ Breathes deeply ] The studio itself was deserted, the floor on the building was empty, and no one was in danger.

Finn: The timing seems deliberate.

Jordan: If I were to lob a guess, I would say that the perpetrator doesn’t want to harm anyone, which is consistent with the other intrusions. While unsettling [Sighs] None of them were violent.

Finn: Until now.

Jordan: What is it about Chase? Why attack him?

Finn: I think the only explanation is that Chase was here to protect Elizabeth, and…the intruder wanted him out of the way.

Marshall: Did you get a court order to open my records?

Curtis: I used other methods.

Marshall: So — so you broke the law. Why would you do that? Why? You have — you have everything to lose, Curtis. You have a successful club, a new home, a wonderful woman with a terrific daughter. Your life is ideal. You have everything I would want my son to have. Why would you risk all of that to get your hands on a file you have no right to see?

Curtis: Because you left me no choice.

Diane: I certainly don’t want to tell you how to run your newspaper.

Alexis: Not to mention, you have a vested interest in the story being published.

Diane: Very true. Michael and Willow are my clients, and Smoltz’s story goes a long way to bolstering their argument that Nina should never be allowed visitation. That’s said — it’s a good story.

Alexis: I know it is.

Diane: How the loopholes in the legal system that allow a person like Nina, with an endless history of bad behavior, to even file a petition in the first place.

Alexis: I know. I-I read Smoltz’s notes. I’ve seen the rough draft. It could be an exceptional feature.

Diane: The why even consider killing it?

Alexis: Because Harmony begged me to.

Harmony: Identity theft’s an epidemic these days, and since I don’t have a paper shredder…

Carly: Doing it the old-fashioned way, huh?

Harmony: [ Chuckles ] Yeah, exactly.

Carly: Mm. That’s smart. You can never be too careful.

Harmony: Well… so…how can I help you?

Carly: Well, you can tell me what’s really going on between you and Nina Reeves.

Willow: If this has anything to do with Nina or her petition for visitation…

Sonny: No, it doesn’t. It’s about Michael. I know we have our — our differences, and it’s not the first time we’ve been estranged.

Willow: Michael told me about how he blamed you after AJ’s death, that he even went so far as to get temporary custody of Avery.

Sonny: Yeah, it was a brutal time, but we reconciled ’cause Carly, uh, built a bridge. But here we go again. Um, Michael’s angry, lashing out, and I don’t — I-I’m sure now Carly is not gonna build a bridge. She’s gonna… encourage the distance. So that leaves you, Willow. I’m — I just — I just want to know if you can talk to Michael. Let him know that I — that I love him, you know?

[ Door opens ]

Marshall: I could think of a lot of other choices — namely, respecting my privacy and leaving it alone.

Curtis: How?

Marshall: By focusing on the future instead of digging in the damn past.

Curtis: Marshall… I thought you were in the witness protection program.

Marshall: [ Scoffs ]

Curtis: I thought you had enemies that had a target on my back, that — that — that could make Portia and/or Trina and/or TJ collateral damage. But it was all a big lie, wasn’t it? Your ass wasn’t in no witness protection program.

Marshall: I never said that. You came up with that theory all on your own.

Curtis: Yeah, but you let me believe it. Why wouldn’t you just tell me what happened, huh? Because the truth — it don’t justify you ghosting your family.

Sonny: Good to see you, son.

Michael: What are you doing here?

Sonny: I just — I don’t like us to be at odds with each other.

Michael: At odds. That’s — that’s a polite way of putting it.

Sonny: You’re angry, and I get it. But I think we should move forward now, Michael.

Michael: Right, and you were, what, just chatting with Willow, waiting for me to come home?

Sonny: No, I wanted to talk to her directly, and I thought maybe she could, you know, work things out between us. And I-I — it’s not fair to put you in that position. I understand that.

Michael: Right. So — so since when did you start caring about what’s fair?

Sonny: I never said I was perfect. I’m just trying to do the best I can do as a father.

Michael: Right, okay, then don’t make your case to Willow. Make it to me.

Harmony: I’m not sure I understand. Nina and i are connected through Wiley.

Carly: I know, but I have a feeling there’s something more to it. When you came to ask for a job at the Metro Court, you said you “owed” Nina.

Harmony: I misspoke. [ Chuckles ]

Carly: Really? Because something’s obviously bothering you.

Harmony: [ Breathes sharply ] Uh, no offense, Carly, but I hardly know you.

Carly: I know when someone’s wasted, like you were last night, and you got really jumpy every time Nina’s name was mentioned, so I just want to know — is Nina blackmailing you?

Harmony: [ Laughing ] No. What? No. I’m sorry, why would you even think that?

Carly: Was it from back when you worked with Phyllis in Manhattan?

Harmony: I never worked with her.

Carly: You were in the same building. Phyllis took care of Nina when she was in a coma. Did you have contact with Nina, too?

Diane: Why would Harmony care if you — oh. Oh, she’s afraid that all of Smoltz’s background research is gonna reveal the truth that Willow is not her daughter.

Alexis: Not her biological daughter.

Diane: Not even her adopted daughter, legally speaking.

Alexis: [ Sighs ] She’s afraid she’s going to lose Willow.

Diane: So, of course, she’s adamant that the story doesn’t run.

Alexis: I told her that she was overreacting, and she just dug her heels in and said that, if I were her friend, I would kill the story after everything that she’s done for me.

Diane: I hope you didn’t agree.

Alexis: I didn’t answer. However, I did tell her we need to — to reevaluate our living situation.

Diane: Reevaluate nothing — kick her keister to the curb!

Chase: [ Sighs ] I miss her.

Brook Lynn: I do, too.

Chase: Actually, I — I miss all of it.

Brook Lynn: You miss pretending to be Bailey’s father to protect her from a complete psychopath?

Chase: Well, maybe not that part.

Brook Lynn: [ Laughs ]

Chase: It was fun, co-parenting with you.

Brook Lynn: [ Laughs ]

Chase: Our little routine in the kitchen…

Brook Lynn: [ Chuckles ] Yeah.

Chase: …And I made the first pot of coffee.

Brook Lynn: Oh, thank God for that coffee.

Chase: [ Chuckles ] Then we’d kick our feet up after bailey went down. Man, we had a nice little groove going.

Brook Lynn: We did, huh?

Chase: [ Breathes sharply ] Minus the time that you were mad at me and refused to talk to me.

Brook Lynn: Only because I overheard you dragging me to Dante.

Chase: Yeah, I still feel really bad about that.

Brook Lynn: Don’t. I know you were just trying to throw Dante off. I get it.

Chase: No, I hate that I hurt you.

Brook Lynn: [ Sighs ] Well, those things that you said… they did hurt… a lot, because… some of them are true.

Jordan: I just got the report. The cameras were jammed.

Elizabeth: Jammed? How?

Jordan: There are devices on the market that are used to corrupt images on surveillance cameras.

Finn: And that’s what happened in this case?

Jordan: I’m sorry. [ Sighs ] Someone did this to you deliberately.

Curtis: I got to admit, your little tales of witness protection and hiding out from gangsters… makes letting us believe you were dead all these years almost understandable, even defensible. So maybe that’s why you lie so much — ’cause it makes you feel better.

Marshall: You don’t know what you’re talking about, Curtis.

Curtis: No?

Marshall: No. You weren’t in my shoes. You weren’t facing what I was facing.

Curtis: You were arrested in a protest that got out of control. You weren’t tried. You weren’t sentenced to prison. Instead, the judge remanded you to a mental institution for evaluation and treatment.

Marshall: Well, look at you. All in the know. Are you happy now, Curtis?

Curtis: [ Sighs ] What do you think?

[ Exhales deeply ]

Brook Lynn: It’s no secret I’ve told my fair share of lies over the years. I would totally get it if you don’t trust me.

Chase: I do.

Brook Lynn: Really?

Chase: Well, maybe not to be 100% truthful all the time, but…

Brook Lynn: [ Laughs ] Impossible.

Chase: …I trust you to do the right thing. You are someone I can count on. You’re someone who – who gets me…like I get you.

Brook Lynn: You get me, huh?

Chase: I’d like to think so, yeah.

Brook Lynn: Then what am I hoping for in this exact moment?

Chase: I better not be wrong.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Leo: Chase, you weren’t there!

Brook Lynn: Leo!

Leo: Why not? Why did you miss my party?

Sonny: I apologize. I should have gone directly to Michael, and, uh, I shouldn’t — I shouldn’t have put you in the middle.

Willow: Do you want to talk to your father alone?

Michael: Well… look, it’s your call. I hate involving you in this, but, uh… since you’re already involved…

Willow: yeah, I’ll s– I’ll stay. Alright.

Michael: [ Sighs lightly ] Okay. I’m listening.

Sonny: I-I just hope that you – you hear what I’m saying, even if you don’t understand, uh… or agree with it. You’re my son. There’s too much love between us to throw it away.

Diane: [ Chuckling ] I’m sorry. That was a little blunt. Even for me.

Alexis: Relax. I’ve already decided that she needs to move out.

Diane: Excellent.

Alexis: Too many warning signs to ignore. [ Breathes deeply ] Still… she was a friend to me when I really needed someone to be, and I feel obligated to help.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

Alexis: She’s desperate to stop this feature.

Diane: So you comply as — what — a parting gift?

Alexis: Why not? I help out Harmony, I pay off Smoltz, and the two of us go our separate ways.

Diane: I understand the impulse. I absolutely do. And, yes, you’re right when you say I have a vested interest in this story running. It would help me a lot. So stipulating to that, I’d like you to consider one other thing. What happened the last time you went against your instincts and you did something wrong to support someone?

Alexis: I lied for Neil and ruined everything.

Harmony: I was a caregiver for another patient in the building, and part of that entailed walking their dog. So we struck up, um — I don’t know how you’d describe it — like a superficial acquaintance with Madeline Reeves.

Carly: Nina’s mother.

Harmony: Yeah, yeah. Nina I was in a coma — I knew that, but that was the extent of it. It wasn’t until she contacted me to help her with Wiley that I even made that connection.

Carly: So you don’t feel like you owe Nina?

Harmony: No. No. [ Chuckles ] I mean, I do feel for her. You know, being deprived of your child. When a woman wants to be a mother, she reaches a point where she will do anything.

Carly: Last night, you said you wish Willow was yours.

Harmony: What?

Carly: Last night. How is Willow not yours?

Harmony: We’ve been estranged for years. That’s entirely my fault.

Carly: Yeah, but you repaired that relationship, right?

Harmony: [ Sighs ] Yeah, we’re — we’re working on it. But, you know, sometimes I still feel that separation, like she’s not, uh, fully mine. Where are my manners? [ Chuckles ] I haven’t even offered you a drink or — or some water. So, um… I’m just going to run upstairs and grab my phone, and I will be right back to take your order, okay? [ Chuckles ]

[ Paper rustling ]

Michael: You know, it’s classic that you say it like that.

Sonny: Like what?

Michael: Like you’re not fully responsible for trashing our relationship, that I’m — that I’m — that I’m somehow to blame.

Sonny: So this is all on me, you’re saying.

Michael: Yeah, dad. It’s all on you.

Sonny: We — we’re — we’re a lot alike in many ways, Michael.

Michael: No. No, we’re not.

Sonny: We both struggle with anger. Mine is hot — yours runs ice cold, but in the end, it’s the same result. We lash out, and we regret what we say.

Michael: No, you’re — you’re right about one thing — I am angry. I am, actually — I’m furious at the way that you treated mom. Did you know that she literally risked her life to hold your business together, and what — you — you pay her back by dropping her for Nina?

Sonny: That’s not what happened.

Michael: That’s exactly what happened!

Sonny: Okay, my business with your mom is my business. I tried to work it out with her over and over again. I did not want the divorce, Michael. She filed for divorce.

Sonny: Yeah. [ Chuckles ] Oh, my god. Do you — do you hear this?

Sonny: What?

Michael: [ Sighs ] Mom filed for divorce because she caught you in bed with Nina. What the hell did you expect her to do?!

Curtis: I get the stigma attached to mental illness. I know it was bad for you, especially back in the day. I imagine it was very hurtful for you, but, Marshall, there’s nothing in this file about a diagnosis. So if you were sick or if the — the judge sent you to a mental institution to avoid a trial —

Marshall: I’m not talking about this.

Curtis: Look, t-there’s no judgment here, okay? I-I’m trying to understand. Can you please help me with that? No matter, uh, uh, how difficult or torturous your ordeal was — and I’m sure it was plenty of both — but you had a wife and two sons, and you thought the best option was to walk away from us?

Finn: If you don’t want to stay with me, that’s — that’s fine. But it can be Laura’s, it can be the Quartermaine’s’, it can be the Metro Court, but it can’t be here, not after what happened to Chase.

Elizabeth: I know you’re right.

Finn: [ Scoffs ] Here comes the dreaded “but”.

Elizabeth: But my instinct is to say put.

Finn: Nope!

Elizabeth: This is my home. I don’t want to leave.

Finn: Mnh-mnh. Even if it means risking getting hurt or, God forbid, worse?

Elizabeth: I can’t explain it. I just have this feeling.

Finn: What feeling?

[ Door opens ]

Elizabeth: Aiden! What are you doing here?

Aiden: Cam told me what happened. How Chase got hit on the head. It’s Franco. It has to be.

Leo: This was my special day. I’m Leo Quartermaine now!

Chase: I know you are.

Leo: And you were supposed to be there, but you weren’t.

Brook Lynn: Leo, sweetie, Chase was planning to come, but he had to help some people who were in trouble.

Leo: Are those people your friends?

Chase: They are.

Leo: More your friend than I am? Do you like them better, and that’s why you didn’t come?

Alexis: It’s always a mistake for me not to follow my instincts.

Diane: Amen.

Alexis: And while killing this feature is not rising to the level of perjury… it does compromise my ethics.

Diane: The Invader is thriving, and so are you.

Alexis: Thank you.

Diane: You are active. You’re engaged. You are a powerful voice for progress and fairness in the community. You’re fighting the good fight, Alexis, just like you did as an attorney. So don’t sabotage your second act. Most importantly, don’t sabotage yourself.

Alexis: That’s quite a closing argument, Counselor.

Diane: I’m Diane Miller, and you are my best friend.

Alexis: Smoltz’s feature has to run. Now what do I do about Harmony?

Harmony: What are you doing?

[ Papers rustle ]

Carly: You’re not burning tax documents. These are notes from a therapy session with Dr. Neil Byrne.

Harmony: What?

Carly: [ Chuckling ] What? “Harmony suffers from intense guilt about the child”?

Harmony: Those are private. Give them to me.

Carly: “Harmony rationalizes keeping the child.”

Harmony: This is all lies. Neil Byrne was a drug addict. Give it to me.

Carly: No. This is what you meant about Willow not being yours. That’s what you’re doing here, right? You’re burning papers that prove that Willow isn’t your biological daughter.

Harmony: [ Grunts ]

Carly: Oh! What the hell are you doing?

[ Both grunting ]

Carly: Get off of me!

[ Both grunting ]

Diane: Harmony provided support when you needed it, yes. But that does not mean you are indebted to her for life, Alexis. There’s a lot you don’t know about Harmony. Clearly, she is a very troubled woman.

Alexis: Yes.

Diane: And that’s sad, okay? But it’s not your job to fix her.

Alexis: I know that. But troubled or not, I’m not gonna like myself very much if I don’t try and help her. She doesn’t even have a place to live.

Diane: Okay. Uh, how’s this? You pay for first month, last month, security deposit on a decent apartment. And until that lease is signed, you put her up at the Metro Court. That’s fair.

Alexis: More than fair. [ Breathes deeply ] Thank you for helping me to talk this through.

Diane: My pleasure.

Alexis: Now I’m gonna go home and I’m gonna have this conversation with my soon-to-be ex-roommate.

Diane: I can come along for moral support. I’ll just stand in the back and look pretty.

Alexis: I need to handle this by myself. However…

Diane: Uh-oh.

Alexis: …Could you talk to Lucy and see if maybe she could do a search, see if she can find Harmony a decent place to live?

Diane: Lucy Coe, the woman who just took her company public?

Alexis: The one and only.

Diane: I suppose as a favor to you, she’ll take the commission.

Alexis: She’d better.

Diane: Very well. I shall deal with Lucy Coe.

Alexis: You’re my good friend.

Diane: I’m your best friend.

Alexis: [ Chuckles ]

Diane: Don’t forget it.

Sonny: I think y-your mom could have, given a little more time, maybe we could have resolved something. But y-you’re — right now, you’re acting like a child. You’re an adult. You don’t have to take sides.

Michael: The sides are clear — you cheated.

Sonny: Okay, before you judge me, not too many years ago, I walked in on your mom in bed with Jax.

Michael: Right.

Sonny: Okay?

Michael: Okay, yeah.

Sonny: So what does that mean?

Michael: Just — just — no, yeah —

Sonny: Huh?

Michael: Just keep telling yourself that. Do — say whatever excuse you need to justify it. Aah. No one’s going to believe you…

Sonny: I’m not jus–

Michael: …maybe except — maybe except for Nina. You know what’s funny? Before all this stuff happened, if someone were — were to have asked me to sum you up in two words, I would say “honorable” and “loyal.” See, that’s — that’s what you used to be.

Sonny: Yeah, I still am, Michael.

Michael: Really? Then where’s your loyalty in — in putting Nina first?

Sonny: I’m —

Michael: Where’s your — where’s your honor in abandoning your family?

Sonny: I’m here. I’m not running. I’m not hiding. I’m trying to make this right. So you know what? All I’m asking you to do, as my son… is to meet me halfway.

Michael: Now, see, there you go again — refusing to take responsibility.

Sonny: I’m taking responsibility! I said —

Michael: Yeah, I don’t — I don’t want I don’t want to hear it anymore. I don’t want to hear it anymore. I just —

Sonny: Yeah, of course.

Michael: Honestly… I don’t want to see you anymore.

Sonny: [ Sighs ]

Michael: From this point on, I want nothing to do with you. I am done.

Chase: Hey, I love hanging out with you, Leo. And I really wish I could have been there to celebrate your adoption, but my other friends needed me, and I can’t be in two places at once.

Leo: No one can, except in comic books.

Chase: Right. So when that happens, when — when I can’t be there for you, someone else has to cover for me.

Brook Lynn: Like those whale pods you were telling me about, buddy, you remember? The whales sometimes have to babysit each other?

Leo: When one has to be away from the pod, the other whales help out.

Chase: Exactly. That is a perfect comparison to Brook Lynn and me.

Brook Lynn: Except the whale part.

Chase: Well, yeah, yeah. Except for that. Okay. Well… uh. But how — how was the party? Did you have fun?

Leo: Yeah. Until they wanted me to perform, and I couldn’t do it.

Chase: Ohh.

Brook Lynn: Olivia wanted Leo to recite this poem that he’s learning for his theater group performance.

Chase: Well, that’s — that’s cool.

Brook Lynn: Yeah, but Leo didn’t want to, which is totally fine, by the way.

Chase: Hmm. Too many people? It can be scary standing in front of a lot of people. I mean, I know that’s how I felt when I performed at the Nurses’ Ball. Hey, can I let you in on a little secret?

Leo: Mm-hmm.

Chase: If you pretend that you’re performing for just one person, it can feel like you’re just in your living room with a friend.

Leo: Like you and me listening to Brook Lynn’s songs?

Brook Lynn: Whoa, you guys listened to my demos?

Chase: [ Chuckles ]

Leo: Yeah. When Chase lived here — sometimes Chase sings them, too.

Brook Lynn: He does, does he?

Chase: O-okay. Uh. Do you remember when you shared your playlist with me?

Brook Lynn: Yeah.

Chase: You may have accidentally included some of your demos.

Brook Lynn: You didn’t think to mention that?

Chase: I thought you wanted me to have them.

Brook Lynn: I got to comb through that playlist.

Chase: I loved singing for you. Do you think you could, uh, say your poem for me?

Finn: I was talking to Chase. I hope you don’t mind. But he — he told me that you think that Franco is behind all the stuff that’s been happening.

Aiden: Ghost can move things.

Finn: Mm-hmm.

Aiden: Franco’s ghost must have moved whatever hit Chase. He’s been trying to reach us.

Finn: Why?

Aiden: Because he’s mad that we’ve gotten so close with you.

Finn: Franco loved you, right? He loved you and your brothers and — and your mom. Would he really want to scare you?

Aiden: Why don’t we ask Franco and find out?

Marshall: I did what I thought was best for my family!

Curtis: It is like we are going in circles! How was it best for you to leave us to grieve? How was it best for me growing up my whole life without my dad?

Marshall: How can you be certain that you all would have been better off had I stayed? Isn’t it possible that the exact opposite is true? That I gave you a gift by vanishing from your lives?! That the real act of selfishness, the — the real mistake was coming back?!

Brook Lynn: Do you want to try it now, bud? Recite it only for Chase?

Leo: Okay. Sit over there and stand over there where I can’t see you.

Brook Lynn: Copy that.

Chase: Okay, buddy, it is just you and me. I am a friend in the living room.

Leo: Spinning through space for eons, our earth — oceans, rivers, mountains, glaciers, tigers, parrots, redwoods — evolving wonders. And our vast array, generations of humans — all shapes, colors, languages. Can I be the only me? Our earth: So much beauty, hate, goodness, greed. “Study. Cool the climate,” advises my teacher. “Grow peace.” Can I be the only me, become all my unique complexity?

Elizabeth: I know you want to help, but I agree with Finn. I mean, Franco loved us. He would never, ever want to frighten us this way.

Finn: Yeah, I think maybe before we start blaming the ghost of Franco [Breathes deeply] we might want to make sure it’s not someone alive and well who’s doing this, you know, for whatever reason.

Aiden: Okay, I guess that makes sense.

Elizabeth: Why don’t you go to your room and grab some extra clothes? You’re gonna be staying with grandma Laura just for a little while longer. [ Sighs ] Thank you for handling that so well.

Finn: What’s there to handle?

Elizabeth: Where do I begin?

Finn: [ Chuckles ]

Elizabeth: [ Sighs ]

Finn: Yeah. Hey, listen. Aiden’s gonna figure this out eventually, you know? This has nothing to do with ghosts.

Elizabeth: Oh, God.

Curtis: When you first got here, I was the one that wanted you gone. And now you regret making contact. Although I’m — I’m grateful that you did. I’m not okay with any of this. The lies, the cover-ups, the questions that still need answers. But I would rather have my father with me, no matter how difficult, then go on believing that he was dead. So can we use this as a turning point? An opportunity to start fresh? No more secrets. What happened in the mental institution? Did you undergo treatment? What was the diagnosis?

Marshall: Why don’t you consult that precious file you’re holding? The one you broke the law to get, the one you violated my privacy to read. And if the answers ain’t there, then you’re just out of luck, ’cause you ain’t getting them from me.

Sonny: You need to be sure about this, ’cause, uh, some words can’t be taken back.

Michael: I don’t want to take them back, okay? You tore this family apart, and I’m not gonna excuse it or gloss it over. You know, I even — I even thought about changing my name back to Michael Quartermaine, but I thought, why should I do that? Why should I change my last name because of you? It’s best to redeem it. Make “Corinthos” stand for something good, so that when people think about it, they think of me, they think of — think of Wiley. And you and all your lies, your — your disloyalty, violence, crimes — eventually that will be forgotten, like you never even existed.

Sonny: I love you. You’re my son. I’m always gonna love you.

Michael: Yeah, so you keep saying.

Sonny: But I’m not gonna forget this. And if you want me to forgive… …you’re gonna have to beg.

Michael: Well, don’t hold your breath.

Sonny: I won’t.

[ Door slams shut ]

Sonny: Goodbye, son.

Alexis: Harmony, we need to talk. Harmony? Harmony, are you here?!

[ Line rings ]

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Alexis: Harmony, will you please call me? I am extremely worried.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Alexis: Diane.

Diane: Hey, honey, I’m just checking in. Did you make it home alright?

Alexis: Yeah, I’m home. My house is torn apart. Harmony’s car’s in the driveway, but there’s no sign of her. I think she’s having some sort of a breakdown.

Harmony: Up there on Rana Point… …it’s a good place to think, right? Wrong. It’s quiet. It’s away from everyone. It looks peaceful, but… looks can be deceiving.

Alexis: I think I know where she is.

[ Car running ]

[ Ominous music ]

On the next “General Hospital” —

Sasha (to Nina): Does that mean that he killed them?

Brando: If you ask me, that’s part of the problem.

Elizabeth (to Finn): I’m sorry. I can’t do that.

Lucy: Then we will have to agree to disagree.

Willow (to Michael): Are you really prepared to cut your father out of your life?

Sonny (to Dante): Do not judge until we’ve walked in somebody else’s shoes.

Harmony: I can’t stop now.
