Alexis: How much have you had to drink?

Harmony: Not nearly enough. Come on, Alexis. Live a little. One drink’s not going to kill you.

Alexis: Oh, my god.

Harmony: You know what it’s like to want to forget your troubles.

Josslyn: “We don’t know what Spencer’s actually up to”? I mean, Cam, what does that mean?

Cameron: You — you guys were wrong about him.

Josslyn: Do you hear yourself? Spencer has to know in his heart, deep down, that Esme is guilty of recording and posting that video. But he convinced himself to blame Trina. Why? Because Spencer was too weak and too shallow to stand up against his girlfriend, and now you’re defending him?

Trina: Joss, stop. It’s okay. Let’s all take a step back.

Josslyn: No, no, it’s — it’s not okay. If you don’t call Spencer out, that’s as good as standing with him.

Cameron: Joss, you’d side with him, too, if you knew what I know.

Josslyn: And what is that?

Spencer: Cameron, stop. That’s enough.

Esme: Is Ava working late at the gallery again?

Nikolas: Ava doesn’t share her schedule with me.

Esme: I can cut a cigar and light it for you. One of the many skills I learned, um, growing up overseas.

Nikolas: Not tonight.

Esme: I know you and Ava disagree about my staying here, but it will all be resolved once you renew your wedding vows.

Nikolas: Ava called off the ceremony. We won’t be renewing our vows.

Ava: Oh, started without me, huh? Am I really that late?

Nina: Mnh. I’m early. And thank you for agreeing to meet me on such short notice. I won’t take up too much of your time. Hey, is the launch from Spoon Island waiting for you?

Ava: Wyndemere can wait. So what is this big news you texted me about, huh?

Nina: Well, I didn’t want you to hear it from someone else, just in case the blowback affects Avery.

Ava: What about Avery?

Nina: Well, Scott, he filed the paperwork. I’m going to petition the courts to get visitation rights with Wiley. So, Michael and Willow be damned, and Carly, too. Carly most of all.

Ava: Hmm. Well, I assume that Sonny knows about this. What does he think of it?

Sonny: How long ago? Where are they now? Okay, well, then you know what to do. Yeah, let me know when it’s done. Alright.

Laura: Hi, Sonny.

Sonny: Hi.

Laura: Is everything okay?

Sonny: Yeah, everything’s good. And if it’s not, it will be.

Alexis: Will you please close out my friend’s tab and put it on my account?

Harmony: Alexis, no, no. You have been way too kind to me. Better than I deserve.

Alexis: If we both got what we deserved, we’d both be back in Pentonville.

Harmony: Don’t say that! I just — sorry. I just don’t want to think about that place.

Alexis: Harmony, what is wrong with you? Whatever is going on cannot be that terrible.

Harmony: [ Voice breaking ] Brendan, please listen!

Brendan: I won’t, but the police will listen to everything I now know — today! No!

Harmony: [ Grunting ] I won’t lose my daughter!

Harmony: I need a cab.

Alexis: No, you don’t. I’ll take you home.

Harmony: No, I can’t.

Alexis: Why not?

Carly: Is everything okay?

Alexis: Harmony’s been over-served.

Carly: Okay, I’ll speak to the bartender. In the meantime, I’m going to get you a room so you can sleep it off.

Harmony: No, Carly, that’s alright. Thank you very much. I don’t take charity. Alright, well, then I will call Willow…

Sam: -Mom. –

Carly: …And see if she can help.

Harmony: No, no. Please don’t call my daughter.

Sam: -What’s going on?

Alexis: -I have no idea. This has been a day from hell.

Sam: What happened?

Cameron: You’re right. Enough is enough. If you won’t tell them, then I will.

Josslyn: Tell us what?

Trina: You know what? I-I can’t do this. I’m out of here.

Josslyn: I’ll come with you.

Cameron: No, look, wait, you guys got to hear this.

Trina: Hear what? That Spencer thinks I’m guilty and that you got his back?

Cameron: Yes. No. I mean, look, I-I do, but there’s limits. Just let me explain —

Spencer: Damn it, Cameron, I can speak for myself. Cameron is right. There is something that you guys should know. And I can’t keep it from you anymore.

Esme: Ava called off the wedding vow renewal? I’m so sorry.

Nikolas: To be fair, she only postponed it… indefinitely.

Esme: [ Sighs ] It’s me, isn’t it? Ava doesn’t want me here. I should just go.

Nikolas: Well, even if you were to move out, Ava and I have changed. And I’m not sure how we recapture the spirit that led us to want to renew the vows in the first place.

Esme: You’ll find that magic again. When two people love each other the way that you and Ava do —

Nikolas: love isn’t the problem. Never has been. It’s a matter of trust.

Esme: I know what you mean.

Nikolas: You and Spencer are still struggling with trust issues?

Esme: At least spence doesn’t believe the awful things that Ava and Sonny think about me.

Nikolas: That you’re responsible for that video of Cameron and Josslyn.

Esme: They just refuse to accept that it was Trina, never mind that all of the evidence points towards her, that she had motive and was physically in the cabin while I was long gone. It’s easier to blame me.

Nikolas: It’s not only Ava and Sonny that believe it.

Esme: You’ve changed your mind about me?

Nikolas: Commissioner Ashford was here today. She was asking questions about you.

Ava: So which side will Sonny be on when you go into court demanding the right to see your grandson?

Sonny: You gotta know, if you to court on this and, uh, lines are gonna be drawn, sides are gonna be taken. And if I don’t take a side, that means I’m taking your side.

Nina: Well, Sonny, I would never, ever ask you to choose me over your son.

Sonny: No.

Nina: I wouldn’t do that.

Sonny: Right.

Nina: So if you have to go against me in court and support Michael’s attempt to block my petition, then I’ll understand that.

Nina: I-I told Sonny that I don’t expect him to take a side.

Ava: Well, that’s noble. But with Scott as your lawyer…

Nina: Scott is not gonna put Sonny on the stand, because if he does, I will fire him.

Ava: Wow, well, you — you feel very strongly about protecting Sonny, huh?

Sonny: Thank you very much.

Nina: Well, wh-what’s a girl supposed to do, Ava? He just — he keeps coming to my rescue.

Ava: Hmm. Sounds like a real hero.

Nina: He is.

Sonny: What are you gonna have?

Laura: Information. From you. Tell me about the robbery at Charlie’s.

Sonny: Ah, you know, just a couple of thugs. Um, Brando did the heavy lifting, and then, um, I was just making sure that, uh, Nina wasn’t hurt.

Laura: All in a day’s work, right, Sonny?

Sonny: Yeah, nobody’s going to be, uh, messing with anybody anymore, especially those guys.

Laura: I wish I could say that about whoever killed Luke. The WSB arrested Jennifer Smith.

Sonny: She didn’t seem too threatening when she showed up after Luke’s memorial.

Laura: And I remember you couldn’t get her on a plane home fast enough.

Sonny: Well, you know, she always seemed hung up on Luke, but being hung up on Luke and, you know, trying to kill him is, like, a big jump.

Laura: Yeah. There’s more.

Sonny: Oh?

Laura: She was caught red-handed with the Ice Princess.

Sonny: Well, case closed. That’s it. Or not.

Harmony: No, Carly, please don’t call my daughter, okay?

Carly: Harmony, calm down. You need to calm down.

Harmony: I’m calm, I’m calm. I’m calm. I just need to find my keys.

Sam: Did something happen?

Alexis: I’ll talk to you about it in the morning. I need to take Harmony home.

Carly: Alexis, don’t worry about her car. I’ll have it brought to your house later.

Harmony: Okay. Found them. Okay.

Carly: Okay, I’m going to put those behind the bar…

Sam: Hey.

Carly: …For safe keeping.

Sam: Hey, do you need help?

Alexis: No, I got it.

Sam: Call if you change your mind, okay?

Alexis: I will. I will. Harmony, come on, let’s go.

Harmony: Wait, my — my bag. Guess I’m not getting that job, huh?

Alexis: Let’s go.

Carly: Are you okay with that?

Sam: Hell no, I’m not.

[ Thunder rumbles ]

Alexis: I’ll take your bag.

Harmony: No, I got it.

Alexis: Okay, why don’t you… I’ll make some coffee. Go lie down, okay?

Harmony: Please don’t leave me.

Alexis: Harmony, what — what is going on with you? Are — are you sick?

Harmony: Terrified.

Alexis: Of what?

Harmony: Not what. Who.

Alexis: Who are you terrified of?

Harmony: Me.

Trina: Okay, Mr. Two-faced. What do you think I should know?

Cameron: Go on. Tell her.

Josslyn: Tell her what? What do you and Spencer know that Trina and I don’t?

Trina: Officer Cabrera, are you following me? You keep showing up to Kelly’s every time I’m here.

Rory: Uh, just getting decent coffee for me and the rest of the squad. It’s been a long day. Uh, you okay, Ms. Robinson?

Josslyn: We’re all friends here. Well, some of us are friends.

Rory: Good to know.

Trina: You were saying?

Cameron: Go on, Spencer, don’t stop now.

Spencer: It’s about Josslyn.

Esme: What did Commissioner Ashford want to know?

Nikolas: She has to talk to you and Spencer. The staff informed her that you wouldn’t be speaking with her without an attorney present.

Esme: I doubt the staff came up with that on their own.

Nikolas: I told them what to say and to send the commissioner on her way as politely as possible.

Esme: Thank you for protecting me. Us. I’m sure the commissioner would love to make me the scapegoat.

Nikolas: Mm, from what the staff told me, the commissioner wasn’t accusing you of anything.

Esme: Well, not openly, maybe, but I’m sure she would much rather be building a case against me than Trina. Spencer was just starting to believe in me again, and if the commissioner turns him against me and then convinces you, too —

Nikolas: That’s not going to happen.

Esme: Thank you.

Ava: Those punks would not have tried to rob Charlie’s when my brother owned it.

Nina: Ava, are you implying that they weren’t afraid of Sonny?

Ava: I’m just saying. If you and I know that his time in Nixon Falls changed him, who’s to say word didn’t get out?

Nina: Yeah, but he’s Sonny Corinthos. You should have seen how he and Brando took those thieves down. Even with guns, those punks didn’t have a chance.

Ava: And here I thought you fell for Mike the bartender, not Sonny the mobster. Guess we’re not so different after all.

Nina: And what do you mean by that?

Ava: Couldn’t resist a bad boy.

Laura: The WSB has Jennifer in custody. So as far as they’re concerned, the matter is closed.

Sonny: You think there’s more?

Laura: The Ice Princess doesn’t just connect to Luke’s death.

Sonny: Mm-hmm.

Laura: It brings the Cassadines into it.

Sonny: Victor?

Laura: Yeah. He’s made no secret that he’s got some kind of a plan in the works.

Sonny: Anything I can do?

Laura: Your friend Brick, that guy has his finger in more pies than I can count. If he hears anything…

Sonny: You’ll be the first to know.

Laura: Will I, though, Sonny? I was the last to know that my grandson was moving back to live at Wyndemere. And with his girlfriend. And it was all because of you.

Sam: Harmony Miller was and still is trouble.

Carly: Alright, well, Alexis doesn’t seem bothered by it.

Sam: Well, my mom made it very clear that her friendship with Harmony was her business.

Alexis: I-I was alone in that prison for a long time, and — and Harmony was my only friend. And not only that, New Year’s Eve, you know, I was sitting right there in that chair staring at a bunch of champagne flutes that I was really thinking about downing. And Harmony sat there and talked to me until I came to my senses. So things would have gone a lot differently if it weren’t for Harmony. I really have Harmony to thank for that.

Sam: I had no choice but to back off just now.

Carly: Okay. Well, Harmony is Willow’s mom, so I’m inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt. But getting so drunk at the bar that you can barely stand, that can’t be good for Alexis. But I’m going to stop because I have no right to give you advice.

Sam: You don’t hear me shutting you down.

Carly: That’s because you’re being polite, which is totally unnecessary since I asked you to use your relationship with Dante to find out what the PCPD had on Trina.

Sam: We have been over this, and you didn’t make me do anything that I didn’t want to do. I made the decision to go into Dante’s e-mails and look up forensic information.

Carly: Yes, but after I badgered you about Trina’s innocence and how Esme was guilty, which is true, by the way, but still, I put you on the spot, and I really hope Dante forgave you.

Sam: Mm, we’ve got a lot of work to do on that.

Carly: I’m sorry. But after you saw the forensic e-mail, was there anything that could help Trina?

Cameron: We’re not talking about Josslyn here.

Spencer: I am. I told Cameron I wanted to believe your story, but honestly, I was just trying to please Josslyn because I know that you two are good friends.

Josslyn: Yeah, we’re good friends. We’re best friends. Not that you’d have any idea what that means. Because friendship is just a word to you, Spencer. No, actually, it’s — it’s more of a commodity. It’s something that you buy, like you buy everything else. So it’s no surprise that you can’t wrap your mind around the fact that I actually believe in Trina because I know her.

Spencer: That’s you, Josslyn. Always ready to fight, do whatever it takes to win.

Cameron: Where are you going with this?

Spencer: Why try to throw all the blame on Esme? After we left the cabin that night, you three were all alone, so did you get Trina to film that video of you getting it on with Cameron? What if this was all just Josslyn’s way of framing Esme?

Josslyn: -Oh, my god.

Trina: -Are you crazy?

Cameron: Son of a bitch!

Nina: I have kissed a lot of very handsome frogs, but I’ve never found my prince.

Ava: Well, I have an actual prince. And I’m starting to prefer the croakers on spoon island.

Nina: Uh-oh. What’d Nikolas do now?

Ava: [ Sighs ] Plenty. And I’m furious. But to be fair, I’m not completely blameless in the situation, and nor is your heartthrob over there.

Nina: What’d Sonny do?

Ava: I’m surprised he didn’t tell you. After Trina was wrongfully arrested, accused of being responsible for this revenge porn video, I went to Sonny and I urged him to have A…private chat with Esme.

Nina: He would never hurt a teenager.

Ava: Yeah, no. But he’s certainly an expert at the art of intimidation. He can terrify somebody without even raising his voice. And I was hoping that he would get Esme to confess, but he didn’t get the chance because Nikolas figured out what was going on and came to Esme’s rescue, and she loved that. She played the poor, innocent waif in need of protection. And then the next thing you know, Nikolas invited Spencer and Esme to stay with us without even asking me first.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Nina: Okay, can you just hold that thought, please? Just one second. Hey, Phyllis. Have you recovered from last night? What? Oh, no.

Sonny: Uh, Spencer’s girlfriend and I, we — we had a little chat.

Laura: How little?

Sonny: Well, you got to understand something. Um, after what Esme did with that tape, you know, of Cameron and Josslyn, that cannot go unchallenged.

Laura: And I’m not saying that it shouldn’t, but this is where we part ways, because I do trust the justice system.

Sonny: Even after Trina Robinson got arrested, and now she could go to prison while, uh, Esme is being protected by Nikolas on Spoon Island?

Laura: [ Sighs ] Okay, first of all, who said that Trina Robinson is going to prison? She’s going to get a trial so she can prove her innocence.

Sonny: Right, but Esme can make that difficult for her.

Laura: Sonny. Yes. If anything happens to Esme now, you are suspect number one, and I will have Robert Scorpio prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law.

Sonny: Laura, Laura, Laura. Okay, listen, I promise you that even if Esme is found guilty, I won’t touch a hair on her head.

Nina: Hey, Sonny, I’m sorry to interrupt, but I just heard from Phyllis. Those two men that tried to rob Charlie’s, they’re back on the street.

Sam: Dante arrived before I could read the details, but the CSU e-mail said that there was more evidence tying Trina to the crime.

Carly: [ Sighs ] This is bad. Diane said the prosecuting is tough and she has a strong conviction record. And even though I know that Esme framed Trina and planted every shred of evidence, the ADA doesn’t know that. She’s going to use that evidence and send the wrong person to jail.

Sam: Yeah, sometimes law doesn’t have much to do with justice.

Carly: Yeah. Look no further than Nina’s right to petition the court for visitation with Wiley.

Sam: Okay, just because she can petition doesn’t mean she can win.

Carly: I don’t know about that. Nina has a really great way of convincing people that she’s a misunderstood saint. Oh, did I tell you that Sonny cut back on his drinking? Which is great, right? It’s great because it’s great for his health, it’s great for his relationship with Donna and Avery, but guess who convinced him? What?

Sam: Nothing. [ Chuckles ] Nothing, I’m just listening to you vent. Do you feel better?

Carly: Yeah, I know, I said I was making a clean break, right?

Sam: Nice try. We both know it’s never clean.

Harmony: Every choice I make is the wrong one. 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. And it didn’t help. It made things worse. So what could I do? I just went for a drink.

Alexis: I have not seen you like this before. What happened?

Harmony: I had one hope, one thing to cling to, and it was — it was her. It was Willow.

Alexis: Did you tell her? Did you tell Willow that she wasn’t your biological child? Is that what this is?

Harmony: No. No, not yet. But I will. ‘Cause she’s bound to find out.

Alexis: Well, she’s not going to find out from me. She’ll find out from you. Did you decide to tell her?

Harmony: No. No, not yet.

Alexis: Harmony, I have no idea what is going on with you, but it — [ Sighs ] It — it can’t be as bad as what I just saw.

Harmony: What happened to you tonight?

Alexis: Do you remember the guy that was in my office, b-Brendan Byrne, Neil’s brother?

Harmony: What about him?

Alexis: He’s dead. I found him face down in the harbor

Harmony: W-where was this?

Alexis: On the pier. I was — I was waiting for the launch to go to Spoon Island, and I look over, I see this body floating in the harbor. And then I called the police, and then they fished him out.

Harmony: And you’re sure it was the man I met at your office?

Alexis: I’m positive. Same guy who tried to wrest money from my guilty conscience.

Harmony: You have nothing to be guilty for.

Alexis: I know that. Jordan doesn’t know that. She was filled with questions, looking for a motive.

Harmony: You didn’t kill him! And if the police think that, I’ll —

Alexis: You’ll what? I’m just —

Harmony: I’m sorry, Alexis. You had such a terrible night. And it’s all my fault.

Alexis: I have no idea what’s going on with you. But Brendan’s death is not your fault. You didn’t murder him. By the way, they think it was a suicide.

Carly: I want you to know that I’m grateful for your friendship.

Sam: I’m grateful for your friendship, too. Now, are we ready for a return trip to the hatchet-throwing gallery? Because I think we could use some frustrations to be let out.

Carly: Oh, okay, like Harmony?

Sam: And Esme.

Carly: It’s a deal.

Sam: Oh, can we drop Harmony’s car off at my mom’s on the way back?

Carly: Yes, and that way, you can check on your mom.

Sam: [ Sighs ] Who insists she doesn’t need my help.

Carly: Come on.

Laura: Jordan confirmed it. The gunmen made bail. So… well, I think we’re done here, aren’t we, Sonny?

Sonny: Yeah. Um, I’ll take care of the bill, and…great talking to you.

Laura: Thanks. I’ll catch up with Ava.

Nina: You knew about this, didn’t you?

Sonny: Yeah, I have my sources. Um, some high-priced lawyer showed up at the arraignment and notified the judge that the bail had been paid.

Nina: By whom?

Sonny: Somebody with deep pockets.

Nina: A friend of yours?

Sonny: Nina. I told you these were punks who would try and take advantage of me because Jason’s gone.

Nina: Well, in other words, you’re saying don’t ask too many questions.

Sonny: It’s — it’s better off in the long run.

Nina: Sonny, I don’t know what it was like with you and Carly, but you don’t need to protect me. I know you. And I also know Mike. It doesn’t have to be either/or. Because they’re both you.

Ava: What are the chances those two can actually pull it off?

Laura: Hmm. I think if you and Nikolas can make a go of it, then anything is possible.

Ava: You didn’t pick a very good example.

Laura: I know there’s tension at home now.

Ava: It isn’t home. It’s a boarding house. Everybody has their own room. Nikolas has his, I have mine, Spencer has his, that French devil has hers.

Laura: Hmm. At least she’s not pregnant. That’s something we have to be grateful for. And when you and Nikolas renew your vows —

Ava: Oh. Oh, no, that’s not going to happen.

Esme: Your son is still a child in many ways. His emotions swing back and forth like a pendulum. But…you’re so much more mature and experienced than Spence. If Commissioner Ashford has you thinking the worst of me, I-I wouldn’t be able to bear it.

Nikolas: You’re right. In many ways, my son is still very naive. But I’m not. I know what you’re capable of. I haven’t forgotten that you helped my son terrorize Ava.

Esme: I-I can explain. I don’t need your explanation.

Nikolas: You’re not the only one that’s driven by demons. The kind that force you to do desperate things.

Esme: We’re alike that way.

Nikolas: My mother isn’t sure that I’ll ever outgrow that part of myself. But you still have time to get it right, and I know the difference between a lonely heart and a wicked one.

Esme: Which one am I?

Josslyn: Hey, what is wrong with you?!

Cameron: He does not get to talk to you like that!

Trina: Are you okay?

Spencer: Some things are worth it.

Rory: I saw the whole thing.

Cameron: Well, then you heard what he said.

Rory: You’re under arrest.

[ Handcuffs click ]

Harmony: Is that what the police think? They think that guy, Brendan, committed suicide?

Alexis: I think they’re still investigating. They don’t know. Maybe it’s likely. I mean, he wasn’t murdered for his money, ’cause he was desperate and in debt. I-I mean, I don’t know, who would want him dead?

Harmony: I got to get out of here.

Alexis: Now?

Harmony: Yeah, there’s something I — I need to do.

Alexis: Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You’re not going anywhere right now. Not in this condition.

[ Knock on door ]

Harmony: It’s the police.

Alexis: It is not the police. I’ve already talked to Jordan. Sam?

Sam: Hey, uh…

Carly: We won’t stay long.

Sam: Yeah, Carly’s just dropping off Harmony’s keys.

Carly: I’m putting your keys right here. Please do not go anywhere, okay?

Alexis: I’ll keep an eye on her.

Harmony: Th-thank you. Thank you all. Sorry.

Carly: Oh, oh! Are…

Trina: Y-you can’t arrest Cam.

Josslyn: Hey, he was provoked, alright? Spencer was pretty much asking to get punched.

Trina: Cameron was just standing up for us.

Cameron: Yeah, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.

Josslyn: Hey, stop talking!

Rory: You’re Spencer Cassadine. You just did 30 days at Spring Ridge.

Spencer: Yeah, how about you take those cuffs off, and then he and I are going to go work this out outside.

Rory: It’s not that simple.

Spencer: You said that you know who I am!

Rory: I saw what happened —

Spencer: How about you cut me a break?! I am sorry. I did not mean that. That was — that was an accident!

Rory: I’m arresting you, too.

[ Handcuffs click ]

Nikolas: Ava is devoted to Trina. She’s convinced she’s innocent.

Esme: If you ask Ava, I’m guilty of every crime after Cain killed Abel. And I have accepted that nothing I do will change how she feels about me. But what do you think?

Nikolas: Ava and Sonny are in no position to judge you or anyone else for that matter. Neither am I.

Esme: So you’re on my side. But you shouldn’t be. Ava will forgive you if you put me on a launch and send me back to Kelly’s.

Nikolas: But I won’t forgive myself if I put you back in Sonny’s sights.

Esme: It means so much to me that you’re willing to give me a chance, but it comes at a price. Your vow renewal ceremony. You and Ava should be saying those beautiful words to each other, and this house should be filled with life and love. But right now, it’s more like four islands in a very large ocean. And it can’t go on this way. If you and Ava can’t or won’t do something about it… …I will.

Laura: Ava, don’t let your pride get in the way.

Ava: Scott said I was playing right into Esme’s hands, and Spencer’s.

Laura: Hmm. He said that? That’s very wise of him.

Ava: [ Laughs ] Yeah, it is, actually. But my biggest problem isn’t with Esme or Spencer. It’s with Nikolas.

Laura: Well, he is a very proud man.

Ava: It wasn’t pride that brought Esme into our home. It was selfishness, arrogance.

Laura: That kind of blind selfishness is a Cassadine trait. I have struggled with it for years with him. I’ve tried to protect him from his own DNA. But now with uncle Victor back and making all this mischief, it’s just gotten worse. I hope to God it doesn’t go on much longer.

Ava; Do fill me in. If we can get rid of Victor, maybe he can take Esme with him.

Sonny: You’re — you’re a contradiction yourself. You’re fighting tooth and nail to, you know, see Wiley. And then you’re kind enough to keep Baldwin from forcing me to go on the stand so that way I don’t have to choose between you and my family.

Nina: Thank you for the compliment, but I know what you’re doing. You’re trying to change the subject. Sonny, these two thugs, they were confident enough to — to hold us up at gunpoint. What makes you think they’re not gonna come after us again?

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Nina: [ Sighs ]

Sonny: Uh, got to go. I got to, uh… I’ll be back, okay? I’ll be back.

Nina: [ Sighs ]

Josslyn: Please let Diane know that she needs to give me a call when her meeting is done. It’s about Cameron Webber, and he really needs her help.

Trina: Officer Cabrera, please just let Cam off with a warning. Remember the guy who gave me the soft drink? Be that guy for my friend.

Spencer: What about me?

Trina: As much as I really despise Spencer Cassadine right now, he didn’t mean to hit you. It was an accident.

Rory: The commissioner was clear. If I look away after a crime has been committed, it’s a breach of procedure and a failure of my duty as a cop. I witnessed an assault. I have to act on that. And Mr. Cassadine hit me. And hitting a police officer is very illegal. Let’s move.

Nikolas: No more talk of leaving spoon island and returning to that room above Kelly’s. Not as long as you remain on Sonny’s radar.

Esme: Alright. Since you insist, I won’t run out on you. And Spencer, of course.

Laura: You let me worry about Victor. It’s much more important that you don’t give up on Nikolas.

Ava: Even if he doesn’t trust me to be a part of decisions that concern us both?

Laura: Ava, you’re strong enough to stand up to anything that threatens your marriage. So you go home. You tell him he needs to trust you. And then you insist that he show you that you can trust him.

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

Carly: Whoa, Harmony, are you okay?

Harmony: I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’m just — I’m — I’m, um — only ever had, like, an occasional glass of wine, so that whiskey went straight to my head.

Sam: I’m gonna make coffee.

Alexis: Yeah, I’m gonna — I’m gonna get the milk and sugar.

Carly: And some water, too, maybe?

Sam: -Yeah.

Alexis: -Yeah. Thank you.

Sam: For what?

Alexis: For not saying, “I told you so.”

Sam: Well, doesn’t matter what I think about Harmony. She’s your friend. And you stand by your friends.

Carly: Um, so, d-do you want to go outside and get some air?

Harmony: Why? So you can tell me in private what a miserable drunk I am?

Carly: No, because I think it might make you feel better. Hey, Wiley’s family has to stick together, right?

Harmony: Why are you being so nice to me?

Carly: Because Willow’s my family.

Harmony: Wish she was mine.

Sonny: Hey. Sorry I took so long.

Nina: You okay?

Sonny: Yeah, there was just a few loose ends that needed to be tied up.

Nina: Alright, as long as you’re alright. I should be going home. Scott and I have a strategy meeting in the morning.

Sonny: Okay. Um, I’ll — I’ll walk you out.

Nina: Okay. Listen, I don’t want to sound like a-a broken record, okay, Sonny, but how do you know that these two guys aren’t going to be hitting charlie’s again?

Sonny: Trust me, they got the message.

On the next “General Hospital” —

TJ (to Curtis): What is he lying about?

Marshall: I’m leaving Port Charles.

Spencer (to Cameron): We just have to stick to the plan.

Chase: Someone wants us to believe this.

Jordan: Who else was involved.

Britt: Advice can lead you in the wrong direction.

Drew: Not everybody that goes gets to come back.

Maxie (to Spinelli): Don’t say that ever.

Sonny: I think you’re making a big mistake.

Jennifer: Hey. Well, it’s been hours. Did you talk to trask? Did she make a deal with ava?

Abigail: I wasn’t able to get ahold of her. I’m assuming she’s still thinking it over.

Jennifer: Honey, what– what is there to think over? Ava admitted that gwen was the one that knocked you out and then helped christy kidnap you.

Abigail: Hopefully, hopefully trask will just grant ava immunity and then she’ll just spill the rest of it. But in the meantime, we st– we got to keep quiet and we can’t tip gwen off.

Jennifer: Oh, you’re right.

Gwen: So how do I look?

Abigail: Beautiful. Beautiful. Doesn’t she mom?

Jennifer: Yes. I can find– hardly find words.

Gwen: I can’t believe it’s finally happening. I’m gonna marry the man of my dreams.

Xander: [Sighs] What a glorious evening. Tonight I’m gonna marry your incredible daughter and then spend the rest of my life trying to make her happy. Isn’t that right, dad?

Jack: I think I told you “dad” is not happening.

Xander: Hm. Pops?

Jack: No.

Xander: Papa? Papi? El padre?

Jack: You know, there’s still time for me to stop this wedding.

Xander: You can’t do that. You’re my best man.

[Cell phone ringing] It’s maggie. It must be about sarah. Hello?

Bonnie: [Clears throat]

Justin: Wow! Ooh, la la.

[Both chuckle] What’s the occasion?

Bonnie: What’s the occasion? Am I not your plus one to the double wedding?

Justin: Well, I’m the officiant, not a guest.

Bonnie: Well, okay, but honestly, honestly, I want to be there for nancy. It’s gonna be super hard for her to watch her ex-husband marry someone else, and especially that creepy leo stark.

Justin: Yeah, I’m not a big fan of leo’s either, especially after what he did to sonny.

Bonnie: You know, it’s a shame sonny couldn’t change craig’s mind.

Justin: It is. I guess there’s nothing anyone can say or do to change his mind about leo.

Craig: Hey. Why aren’t you dressed?

Leo: Hang on a second. Let me drink this in.

Craig: What are you doing?

Leo: I’m documenting my big day for my socials.

Craig: Yeah?

Leo: I need all of my friends to be adequately jealous and filled with a severe case of fomo.

Craig: Well, can we make our priorities a little different so we’re not late to our own wedding.

Leo: Don’t worry about it. It’s fine.

Craig: Are you sure?

Leo: Yes, I’m sure. But I cannot have you see me before my grand entrance down the aisle. So head down to the square and I will see you at the altar.

Craig: Okay.

Leo: Come on, come on. Why aren’t you picking up? The wedding is about to start and I really need to talk to you.

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

[Soft orchestration]

Xander: Thank you so much, maggie. I’ll see you soon, yeah?

[Sighs]

Jack: What did she say?

Xander: She just wanted to wish me well. It was very gracious of her.

Jack: And sarah?

Xander: Well, there’s no change in her condition. Her mind is still all jumbled up in the past.

Jack: I’m very sorry to hear that.

Xander: Yeah, me too.

Jennifer: Hey.

Jack: Hey.

Jennifer: Don’t you know it’s impolite to be more handsome than the groom? No offense, xander.

Xander: None taken.

Jennifer: How are you feeling?

Xander: Like the luckiest man in the world.

Jack: Where are my two daughters?

Jennifer: They are in the lobby getting ready.

Xander: I didn’t see them go in.

Jennifer: Well, gwen thought we should sneak through the back so you wouldn’t get a look at her dress.

Xander: My bride, she always has a trick of her sleeve, doesn’t she?

Jennifer: Yes, she does.

Gwen: Thank you.

Abigail: Just doing my job.

Gwen: No, I mean, thank you for being here for me now as my matron of honor. I know it was under duress.

Abigail: I’m exactly where I need to be and so are you.

Gwen: Where’s chad?

Abigail: He and my cousin, sonny, had to make a quick trip out of town.

Gwen: So he won’t be coming tonight?

Abigail: We were hoping that he was gonna get back in time for the wedding, but it just doesn’t really look like that’s gonna happen.

Brady: I need your help with something.

Justin: What is it?

Brady: I need you to draw out the ceremony as long as possible. Whatever you do, do not let craig and leo tie the knot.

Justin: Can I ask why?

Brady: Let’s just say that chloe and I hope that this match made in hell goes up in flames.

Chloe: [Laughing] And I’m so sorry that joy and parker can’t be here today–

Craig: Oh, last minute, honey; it’s okay. I, um– I did invite your mom. I think that might be a little too much of an ask though.

Chloe: Yeah, yeah, maybe. Maybe too much. I don’t know–

Bonnie: Hey. Hey. Thought you’re gonna bring your hot new beau. Did your date not go well?

Nancy: Oh, no, it went great. We’re–we’re having dinner tomorrow night.

Bonnie: Second date, oh, score. Why isn’t he escorting you to the wedding?

Nancy: Well, because I thought I would go solo and stand on my own two feet.

Bonnie: Good for you. But you know, if you get a little weak, I’m always here to hold you up, all right?

Nancy: Thank you.

Craig: I think it’s time we get this show in the road, huh?

Xander: Couldn’t agree more.

Justin: Okay, two weddings coming right up. With depression, you just feel…blah.

Gwen: Is there something that you are not telling me?

Abigail: About what?

Gwen: About chad not being here?

Abigail: It’s nothing to do with you, I promise.

Gwen: Good, I’m glad. You may not believe this, but… I am really glad that you are here for me today. Obviously, we’ve had our ups and our downs, mostly downs, but you’re my sister. And I’m looking at today as a fresh start for both of us.

Chloe: Hey, we’re about to start. Are you ready, gwen?

Gwen: I am.

Jack: You look radiant, sweetheart.

Gwen: Thank you, dad. My goodness, after longing for a father for so long, to know that you’re gonna walk me down the aisle. Sorry, I’m gonna get all sentimental.

Jack: You’re marrying the man you love; you’re surrounded by your family. Can’t get more sentimental than that.

Gwen: Guess, I’m just not used to being happy.

Jack: Get used to it. I love you, gwen.

Gwen: I love you too, dad.

[Both laugh]

Chloe: Hey, have you seen leo?

Abigail: No, I haven’T.

Chloe: [Sighs] Is too much to hope that that lowlife creep got cold feet?

[Quartet playing]

[Quartet plays “wedding march”]

[Electronic music plays]

Leo: I hope I didn’t show you up.

[Laughter]

Gwen: Well, it’s nothing I wasn’t expecting

Leo: You look stunning, gwen.

Gwen: And you, my darling friend, you look absolutely to die for.

Leo: Thank you, my dear. By the way, great job drawing up that prenup so fast.

Justin: Trust me, it was my pleasure.

[Clears throat] Family, friends, we are gathered here in this iconic square to celebrate the union of not just one couple, but two, not just two souls, but four. So on behalf of alexandros cook, gwen rizczech, dr. Craig wesley, matthew cooper, aka leo stark, I thank you all for being here and sharing in their very special day. Now, as most of you know, marriage is an honorable institution and should not be entered into lightly or unadvisedly. If any person here can show just cause why either couple should not be joined in holy matrimony, let them speak now or forever hold their peace. All right. Moving along.

Nancy: Wait. I have something to say.

It’s started. Somewhere between a cuddle

Bonnie: Nancy, what are you doing?

Leo: What is she doing?

Craig: I have no idea.

Chloe: Mom, this is not the right time.

Nancy: Sweetheart, it’s all right. I need to say this. Craig wesley, though we are no longer married, we will always be family. Nothing will ever change that. So I just want to say from the bottom of my heart, I wish you all the happiness in the world.

Craig: Thank you, nancy. I can’t tell you how much that means to me.

Leo: Yes, thank you for saying that in the middle of my wedding.

Nancy: Oh, and by the way, I just want to say for the record, I have a date tomorrow night.

Bonnie: And he’s quite a stud.

Craig: Justin.

Justin: Okay, well, I think what nancy’s lovely speech highlighted is that we are all here to share and support to these two couples. There’s not a large crowd, but it’s certainly a devoted one. Jack deveraux looking dashing, standing up for his friend and soon to be son-in-law. Jack’s doing double duty tonight. He walked his daughter, gwen, down the aisle as well. You must be very excited tonight.

Jack: I certainly am.

Justin: Yes. And abigail dimera standing up for her sister, gwen. And by the way, you look especially lovely tonight.

Abigail: Thank you.

Justin: Chloe lane, here for her father, craig.

Leo: Are we doing roll call now?

Justin: And chloe, of course, as usual, looking as radiant as ever. And leo, I’m wondering, uh, it doesn’t appear you have anyone here with you today.

Leo: Well, I would have, of course, but there were some scheduling snafus. You know how it goes. But now that I think about it, I should have a best man of my own, so, um… brady, I now pronounce you my best man.

Brady: Me?

Leo: Yes, you, big guy. Make sure you have a nice speech prepared for the reception. Can’t wait to hear all the wonderful things you have to say about me.

Justin: Okay. Now that we have acknowledged the wedding party, perhaps it’s time for a prayer.

Leo: A prayer? We’re not here for a sermon, padre, we’re here to get married.

Justin: Are you sure?

Leo: Uh-huh.

Justin: A little invocation, or maybe even a long one, never hurt anyone.

Leo: How about later? You can, invocate your little tush off after you marry us.

Justin: All right. Okay. Well, then I guess it’s time for the vows. Why don’t we start with gwen and xander?

Gwen: I think that actually leo and craig should go first, because, well, they’ve been so generous to share this beautiful venue with us and– well, xander and I are just so grateful.

Leo: Gwennie, I would do anything for you.

Justin: Okay, ah, well, before we start the official vows, why don’t– is there anything the grooms would like to say? Leo, I’m sure you have something to share with everyone.

Leo: Well, I never miss an opportunity to speak in front of a crowd. Anyway, I would just like to thank you all for coming. Not as large a group as I was expecting, but it’s all about quality, not quantity, right? Anyway, this is the happiest day of my life truly. Standing up here with my dearest guinevere, and her betrothed, xander. If my situation were different, I would be green with jealousy, because, well, need I explain. I mean, the bod, the punim, mm. Gwennie you are a very lucky lady. In any case, there is only one man for me, and that is you, craig. Before we met, I was aimless, lost. My life was dark and empty, and you filled it with your beautiful life. You shone upon me a love and a warmth that I’ve been searching for my entire life. I stand before you not only fabulous, but also happy, fulfilled, and eager to share the rest of my life with you. You’re my everything, my raison d’tre. And I will love you forever.

Justin: Craig, do you have anything to say?

Craig: Uh… well, if I did, I probably wouldn’t be able to get it out. Ditto will have to suffice. Justin.

Justin: Okay, um… then I guess there’s nothing more to do but move on to the official vows.

[Clears throat] Do you, leo stark…

[Sneezes]

Craig: Bless you.

Justin: Sorry.

[Sneezes] I am so sorry. Sorry. Okay, do you, leo stark, take this man, craig wesley, to be your lawfully wedded husband?

Leo: Hell yeah, I do.

Justin: And do you, craig wesley, take this man, leo stark, to be your lawfully wedded husband.

Craig: I do.

Chloe: Oh, my god. It’s really happening.

Justin: Do we have rings?

Craig: Ah. Yes. Chloe?

Justin: Leo, put the ring on craig’s finger and repeat after me. With this ring, I thee wed.

Leo: With this ring, I thee wed.

Justin: Craig, place the ring on leo’s finger and repeat after me. With this ring, I thee wed.

Craig: With this ring, I thee wed.

Justin: Okey dokey. By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husbands–

Chad: Stop! Stop.

Justin: Chad?

Chad: Hey, baby, you look great. Ah, this wedding cannot happen.

Gwen: Chad, don’t do this.

Chad: Gwen, this is not about you; this is about leo.

Craig: What?

Chad: Craig, there’s something that you need to know.

Leo: Chadwick, sit down. There is nothing you can do to stop this marriage from happening.

Chad: Oh, really? How about the fact that you’re already married?

[All gasping]

[Dramatic music]

My moderate to severe plaque psoriasis…

Craig: You’re married?

Leo: Of course not. This is completely ridiculous. Don’t listen to anything he has to say. This is another insulting and degrading attempt to break us up, all because he is disdainful of the intense and passionate love we share, all because he refuses to believe that somebody can change for the better. Distinguished guests, every word out of this man’s mouth is a lie.

Chad: Okay, craig and everyone else, I know you have every reason to doubt me, so don’t take my word for it. Why don’t you listen to world-renowned drag queen, jackie cox.

Jackie: Hello, salem. Greetings. Hi. Sorry to crash the party, but I do love some wedding drama.

Craig: Who the hell is this?

Chad: This is leo’s bff. I met jackie in arizona last year when leo tried to abscond with that emerald.

Leo: Allegedly.

Jackie: Clearly, I left quite an impression.

Leo: Jackie, what are you doing here?

Jackie: Well, I was in new york performing my hit one-woman show, “jackievision,” now on tour, when sonny and chad showed up backstage.

Chad: Sonny got a work call on the way here, otherwise he would’ve had a front row seat. But anyway, we tracked down jackie be–

Jackie: Uh, blue eyes, let me tell the story.

Chad: Right, sorry.

Jackie: The boys made their pitch and offered to fly me on a private jet right here to salem so that I could speak my truth.

Craig: And what is that exactly?

Jackie: Just as chad said, leo is already married– wedded, hitched, boo’d up.

Leo: How would that even be possible? I wouldn’t have been able to get a marriage license.

Jackie: Oh, leo, leo. We both know it’s because you married me using your birth name, super duper matthew cooper. I added the super duper part.

Leo: Jackie, can we go somewhere and talk?

Jackie: Mm, I think this is actually the perfect setting.

Chloe: This is more than I’d hoped for.

Craig: Leo, what the hell is going on?

Leo: Well, well, clearly, chad has paid jackie off. Why else would you be doing this? Why are you spreading these terrible lies?

Jackie: [Laughs heartily] Save it, sister. Read it and try not to weep.

Jennifer: Is this for real?

Jack: I don’t know, but I find this strangely riveting.

Craig: It’s says here that matthew cooper is lawfully wedded to darius rose. Who the hell is darius rose?

Leo: There is no darius rose. This is made up.

Jackie: Oh, no? No darius rose? Hold my purse, mary poppins. You and I need to set the record straight, so to speak. We women are in the know about everything.

Jackie: So you see, I’m not merely jackie cox, drag queen, entertainer, dancer, comedian, billy reid enthusiast. I’m all also darius rose, darius rose cooper, doting husband to one mr. Matthew cooper.

Craig: You’re married to him–her?

Jackie: I’m out of drag. You can use he/him or they/them pronouns. And thanks for asking.

Craig: Leo, tell me.

Leo: Okay, fine. Darius and I were married–

Jackie: Are married.

Nancy: Oh, my god.

Bonnie: Oh, my god.

Leo: But it’s not what it looks like.

Craig: Well, then what is it?

Leo: Darius–darius needed a green card.

Bonnie: He doesn’t seem foreign to me.

Leo: He’s from canada. If he wanted to live and work in this country, we had to get married. I did it as a favor for a friend.

Craig: Okay, so you’re just saying that you’re friends, right?

Leo: Well, we– we did hook up a few times, then we realized we were better off as sisters.

Craig: Okay. Is that it? Is that true?

Jackie: Yes. These days our relationship is strictly platonic. No hanky, even less panky.

Chloe: Okay, well that doesn’t change the fact that leo just tried to commit bigamy. If chad and jackie hadn’t just shown up, you’d be roped into some fraudulent marriage. Dad, come on.

Leo: I’m sorry. Craig, I tried to tell you, but you proposed out of the blue and it was so sweet, and then the wedding got moved up and I just got so wrapped up with imagining fabulous outfits and honeymoons. I really did try and tell you, but it’s not a real marriage.

Brady: He still lied to you.

Leo: To protect a friend. If–if I divorce darius, he loses his green card, he gets sent back to canada. Do you know how cold it is up there when you like to wear miniskirts? They eat moose.

Jackie: Matty, babe, no trash talking a-boot the motherland.

Leo: Ugh, sorry. Very polite people and you know I’m a huge hockey fan.

Craig: Okay, this is obviously a very complicated situation.

Chloe: It’s not that complicated. Dad, come on.

Craig: Leo, I am– I’m not happy that you lied to me, but I get it.

Chloe: What?

Leo: Thank you. Craig, you are a true empath.

Chloe: [Sighs]

Brady: You know what? It doesn’t matter whether– whether you forgive him or not. He’s still married. You can’t go through with this wedding.

Craig: So justin, is there anything you can do to help figure this out?

Justin: Well, I can look at some options, but it’s gonna take some time.

Craig: So this can’t happen today? Is that what you’re saying?

Justin: No. I’m sorry. I can’t sanction this marriage.

Leo: [Sighs] Well, as disappointing as that is, maybe it’s for the best. I mean, look at these angry, judgmental faces. When we do get married, it should be around people who support and love us, not a gaggle of haters.

Chad: Seriously? You’re blaming us?

Leo: Let’s get out of here. Let’s let gwennie and xander continue on with their wedding.

Craig: Fine with me.

Bonnie: Oh, come on, craig!

Nancy: Bonnie–

Bonnie: No, he’s taking him for a ride!

Leo: Will you all get this through your judgy heads? I married darius because I would go to the ends of the earth to help a friend. When I marry craig, it will be for love and love only.

Chad: Yeah, no. I’m not buying that. Darius, tell him.

Leo: Darius, I swear to god.

Craig: Wait, there’s more?

Chad: Jackie, you said you would tell the truth, all of it.

Jackie: Fine. I’ll tell it, but only because I’m a big fan of honesty. Well, at least in certain situations. Anyway, leo doesn’t love you, doc. Sure, he thinks you’re good-looking for your age and have a decent sense of humor, little corny sometimes, but at least you’re not a total sourpuss, or so he tells me. But really what he cares about is that you’re a doctor, that you rake in the big bucks.

Craig: And how does he know this?

Jackie: Because I am leo’s confidant. And from what he’s shared with moi, your entire relationship has been one big flimflam. We hit the bike trails every weekend

Leo: A flimflam? Who’s ever even heard of that expression? What is it from, the dark ages?

Jackie: Mid-16th century, scandinavian origin. It means fraud.

Craig: There is nothing flimflam about leo’s and my relationship.

Jackie: Look, doc, you seem like a decent guy, and I’m proud of you for owning who you are. But to leo, you’re nothing more than a mark.

Leo: He’s lying. I swear, he is.

Jackie: Matty, babe, be real. You’ve been targeting him since the moment you met him at that medical convention.

Craig: Wh– how do you know about that?

Jackie: Because I’m leo’s confidant, remember? When he came home that night, on cloud nine I might add, talking about this rich, hot doctor, we discussed over several appletinis how someone in your position, older, closeted, would be easily susceptible to leo’s charms.

Chad: So they concocted a plan to get you to marry him, illegally, of course, because obviously, well, they’re married, then file for divorce and take you to the cleaners.

Leo: They’re–they’re lying. Craig, I would never do that to you. I signed the prenup, remember?

Jackie: You want to see the text messages?

Chad: Yeah, I’ve seen ’em. They’re not pretty.

Gwen: Wait a minute. If this is true, why would you explode your own plan? Why would you stab leo in the back before getting your own payoff?

Jackie: Because he stabbed me in the back first.

Chad: Brady texted me about the aforementioned prenup, that leo gave up his right to craig’s money.

Jackie: Our money–half of that was supposed to be mine. You screwed me over, matty!

Leo: I tried to call and tell you, but your mailbox was full. My god, do you never delete messages?

Craig: So it’s true? This has all been a scam.

Leo: No, no. It was in the beginning, but along the way, I fell for you. I really did.

Chloe: Ugh, please.

Leo: Chloe, it’s not a lie. That’s why when you so rudely shoved that prenup in my face, I signed it. I didn’t care about your money, I just wanted you. Craig, please look at me. I’m telling you the truth.

Craig: When?

Leo: When what?

Craig: You said you fell in love with me. When did that happen?

Leo: I’m not sure. It might have been when you were defending me to your daughter and telling her how much I meant to you. It might have been when we were lying in bed talking about our future. Or maybe it was when you proposed to me. I don’t know, but somewhere along the way, you stopped being a mark, and you started being the man that I love, please… please, can you forgive me? Can we please move past this?

[Dramatic music]

It’s my 4:05, the-show-must-go-on,

Chad: Thank you for coming, darius. You really helped us out.

Jackie: Thanks. Though I have to say, I feel pretty guilty for wrecking leo like that.

Abigail: Telling craig the truth was the right thing to do.

Jackie: Even if I wasn’t doing it for purely altruistic reasons?

Chad: My driver will take you to the jet whenever you’re ready. You should be able to make it back to new york in plenty of time for your show.

Jackie: I like your style, dimera.

Chad: Back at you, jackie.

Abigail: We want to come see your show one of these days.

Jackie: Anytime. Come as my guests. You’ll have to pay full price, of course. Jackie cox doesn’t do freebies. And bring cash for tips. And there’s a two drink minimum. And don’t forget belinda chinashop.

[Cellphone ringing]

Abigail: Excuse me. Sorry. I got to take this real quick.

Leo: Get out of my way.

Brady: You are not going anywhere near craig again. You understand me? It’s over, leo.

Chloe: Thanks. Dad, I’m so sorry.

Craig: Yeah? Why is that? I mean, you got what you wanted. You and your friends, you stopped me from marrying leo and made a fool out of me in the process.

Chloe: No, it wasn’t about that, dad. You–you’re not a fool. You fell in love. Okay?

Craig: Yeah. Yeah, I fell in love.

[Crying] It hurts so much.

Chloe: I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.

Craig: [Sobbing]

Chloe: I’m sorry.

Nancy: Bonnie, I– I just want to go comfort craig, but it’s not my job anymore.

Bonnie: Oh, honey, I’m sure chloe’s doing a good job. What do you say we blow this pop stand and get us a drink? Mm-hmm. Come on.

Chad: Abigail’s been on the phone for a while. Do you know who she’s talking to or what she’s talking about?

Jack: Well, maybe it’s “spectator” business, maybe she’s just following up on a big lead.

Jennifer: There’s something that the two of you should probably know.

Jack: Okay.

Jennifer: I mean, I wasn’t gonna say anything, but you should really just be prepared for what is about–

Xander: I know salem weddings are notorious for drama, but I didn’t have bigamy and a drag queen wedding crash on my bingo card, did you?

Gwen: Did you really have to humiliate him so publicly?

Chad: Okay, my intention was to tell craig the truth. He was about to make the mistake of his life.

Justin: Well, I think it’s clear that leo and craig are out of the wedding. So what do you two want to do?

Gwen: I mean, I suppose there’s no reason why we can’t still get married.

Abigail: Actually, there is.

Steffy: Thank god. My sweet husband.

Hope: Liam’s my husband, mom, I’m not worried.

Brooke: I’m not saying you should be, sweetheart, but situations like this. Steffy’s husband died, tragically.

Hope: Which steffy still knows nothing about. Mom, she remembers nothing about that night.

Brooke: But when she does, when she starts to remember everything.

Hope: Everyone that loves her will be there to help her through it.

Brooke: Including liam?

Hope: Yes, including liam. That’s the way it should be.

Steff: I need you.

Bridget: I’ve dealt with cases where the trauma of the event was so devastating, the patient blocks it out entirely.

Taylor: Yeah, I’ve dealt with that in my practice too. When it’s your own daughter?

Bridget: I know. On one hand, you wish you could just never tell her what happened. Spare her all that heartache and pain. But the reality is–

Taylor: Finn is gone.

Bridget: Right.

Taylor: Someone took him from us, from everybody that loved him. My daughter, most of all. I just– I just keep wondering if she’s ever going to remember what happened. I–

Carter: What did you say?

Quinn: Oh, come on. Don’t pretend you didn’t hear me.

Carter: I don’t know. You whispered– I don’t– I don’t know if I got that.

Quinn: Wh– okay, so. Fine. So you need me to say it louder? Is that it? I need to be– I need to be louder. Fine! I miss you, too.

[ Sighing ]

Carter: I’ll try not to let it go to my head.

Quinn: Well… you said at first, mr.

Carter: That I miss you? It’s true.

Quinn: And your involvement with paris?

Carter: I did what had to be done, I ended it.

Quinn: For her sake?

Carter: Yes, for her sake. She’d be much happier with zende. He can give her everything she deserves, and more.

Quinn: I don’t disagree with that. But now that things are over with paris, and I mean, they are over, right?

Carter: Yes, they are over.

Quinn: I am so glad to hear that.

Bridget: Well, obviously, you know, we’re going to continue to monitor steffy very closely. And I don’t have to tell you that we need to proceed cautiously. But ridge has really been trying to get steffy to remember who did this to finn and her. And I understand why. But I–

Taylor: But we can’t thrust the horror of what happened to her. She’s– she’s too weak, physically and emotionally.

Bridget: Exactly. I’m really relieved to hear you say that. I’m glad we agree. I’m going to go check on her. Okay?

Taylor: Thank you.

Brooke: Oh, sweetheart, I– I’m not trying to make you feel insecure or question liam’s feelings for steffy–

Hope: Mom, look, liam loves steffy, and he has always been honest with me about that and himself. They share a daughter together, and their love for kelly bonds them together the same way that liam and I– we have a daughter that we thought was lost to us. And now we have a wonderful family. And liam’s ring is on my finger. Not steffy’S.

Steffy: You mean so much to me. My husband by my side.

Bridget: What’s going on?

Steffy: Telling him how much I need him. How much I need my husband. Oh, man, that’s a whole lot of wrinkly.

Carter: So you’re glad that paris and I are over?

[ Quinn scoffing ]

Quinn: For all the obvious reasons. Your relationship with zende, your relationship with the forresters, uh, oh, uh, not to mention the little fact that that woman tried to blow up my life. What happened between us almost caused irreparable damage between you and ridge, you and eric. And now, if they were to– they were to find out that you were doing an end run around zende, trying to lure poor, sweet paris into your love nest?

Carter: Wow. Poor paris into my love nest? That is not what’s happening–

Quinn: I am sure that you didn’t do the luring. I’m sure that it was– it was mutual. And the two of you couldn’t fight your attraction to each other. Why? Why does that sound so familiar?

Carter: You talking about you and me?

Quinn: What happened between us, it’s in the past.

Carter: Mm hm.

Quinn: But I have to admit that I– I do, I do miss– I do miss our talks. The way we used to confide in each other. I don’t have a lot of friends. I know– surprise, surprise, but, um, there’s definitely been a void in my life since– since you and I stopped spending time with each other.

Hope: I’m lucky, mom. I have my husband. You– liam is safe. My family is safe. Our lives didn’t change in the blink of an eye.

Brooke: So many blessings to count.

Hope: Whereas steffy’s world will never be the same. Frankly, I mean– who could blame her if she never wants to remember th– that horrific night ever again? And if she does recall those awful moments, then– how does she handle that? I mean, how do you hear that your husband is gone and never coming back?

Taylor: Oh, honey, I know. I know you want to be here at the hospital, but douglas needs you there too. No, babe, just– just help him with his homework, and I’ll call you if anything changes. All right? Okay. I love you, too. Bye. Hi.

Sheila: Hey. I’m sorry, I didn’t– I didn’t mean to interrupt your phone call.

Taylor: No, it’s okay. I was just, uh, I needed to check in on thomas. Let him know what was going on.

Sheila: How’s– how’s steffy? I gather she’s still not remembering anything?

Taylor: No. No, not as far as that night is concerned. Everything is just a– it’s a blank for her. Oh, I’m so sorry, sheila. I know you are as anxious for steffy to remember what happened so she can tell us who did this as we are. But I promise you, we’re– we’re going to find out who did this. And we are going to put them behind bars for the rest of their lives. Come here.

Bridget: Very grateful to have your husband here with you, steffy?

Steffy: Yes. I knew liam would come.

Bridget: Honey? Do you remember anything else about that night?

Steffy: No. No. I’m trying, but…

Bridget: I think we need to give steffy some rest.

Steffy: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I wa– I want my husband here. I– I don’t want liam to leave me. No, no–

Liam: No, I’m– hey, hey! Listen, listen, listen. I’m not leaving you. I’m not leaving you. I’m– you see those doors? I’m gonna be right outside those doors. I’m not going anywhere. Okay?

Steffy: Thank you. Thank you. I love you. I love you so much.

Liam: Yeah. Yeah.

[ Sniffling ] I’m steve, I lost 138 pounds in nine months on golo

Carter: A void?

Quinn: I– nobody understands me the way that you do.

Carter: Even eric?

Quinn: Don’t get me wrong, I’m– I’m very happy to be back with my husband.

Carter: But?

Quinn: He’s been spending a lot of time working from home. Specifically the guest house, and, uh– he sleeps there quite often.

Carter: Is there A… is there still a problem?

Quinn: I love eric. He’s my husband. And I’m committed to him.

Carter: And I get that. But you still didn’t answer my question. Is there still a problem in your marriage, something going on that you can’t talk about, even with me?

Brooke: Sheila, ah. I didn’t expect you to be here. Is everything all right, taylor?

Taylor: Yep.

Sheila: I think what brooke really means to say is I don’t belong here.

Taylor: Well, of course you belong here. You’re hayes’ grandmother. You just lost your son. And you’re worried about finn’s little boy.

Sheila: And finn’s wife. I’m also concerned about steffy.

[ Hope clearing throat ]

Taylor: Oh, ridge, how’s steffy?

Ridge: Uh, well–

Hope: Has she remembered anything more?

Taylor: What is going on?

Ridge: You– you wanna…

Taylor: What’s going on?

Liam: So…

Taylor: Did my daughter take a turn for the worse?

Bridget: No, no, no. Steffy’s condition has not worsened. No, it– it’s nothing like that at all.

Taylor: OkaY. Thank god.

Ridge: But there is a change.

Brooke: What kind of change?

Bridget: Well, uh, it’s memory deficit. It’s, uh, a little more problematic than we initially realized.

Taylor: What you mean, problematic?

Ridge: That’s–

Bridget: Well, first of all, we all know that steffy does not remember how she and finn got shot, right?

Sheila: Ar– are you saying that that’s the way it’s going to stay, that– that she’s never going to regain her memory?

Bridget: No, no, I’m not– I’m not saying that at all, uh-

Taylor: What are you saying, bridget, please, just tell– tell us, please.

Bridget: This actually has more to do with liam.

Liam: Yeah–

Ridge: All right, li–

Liam: Okay, go.

Ridge: Liam came in the room and she– she was very grateful to see him.

Hope: Well, of course she would be, liam is important to her. This is kelly’s father, they were married.

Liam: Okay, all right, so that, um, that’s the thing.

Hope: What?

Liam: Uh, steffy now thinks, what she thinks–

Hope: Liam, what is it?

Liam: I– okay, so I come into the room and she’s really emotional, right? And– and she’s saying things like, you know, “oh, my god, I’m so glad you’re here. And– and, and I need you. And I need– I need my husband and…” hope, I’m pretty sure that steffy thinks that she and I are still married. Medusa lived with a hideous curse.

Quinn: I could always talk to you about anything. It’s what drew us together in the first place. It was always so easy between us. And I never had to be anyone but myself with you. It was– it was such a refreshing relief, knowing that you didn’t want to change me.

Carter: Why would I want to change you? And you can be yourself around eric too. He doesn’t want to change you either.

Quinn: Yes, but…

Carter: But what?

Quinn: You know what? I didn’t come here to get into all of that. I just came here to give you back your damn key, which I’ve done. So now I’m gonna leave and let you get back to work.

Carter: You sure the key wasn’t just an excuse?

Quinn: Okay. Also, I missed my friend. I know we see each other here at work, but it’s, you know, it’s just– it’s not the same thing.

Carter: And is that what we still are? Friends?

Quinn: I’d like to think so.

Carter: You know what I think?

Quinn: Hmm.

Carter: I think there’s not a woman in this world that is like you. You’re an original among originals.

Quinn: Oh, and don’t you forget it.

Carter: I haven’T. And never will.

Carter: Mm.

Nurse: Your blood pressure is slightly elevated. How are you feeling?

Steffy: Better if my husband was with me. Ask liam to come back right away.

Nurse: Okay, just relax. We’re going to get him. One second.

Hope: Steffy still thinks she’s married to you?

Brooke: What? So she has no recollection of finn whatsoever?

Liam: I don’t think so.

Taylor: But, what about hayes? Does she–

Ridge: Our daughter doesn’t think she has a little boy with finn.

Taylor: Oh my– oh my god.

Brooke: Well, you’re going to tell her, aren’t you?

Hope: She deserves to know what happened to finn.

Taylor: Okay, I– I don’t think that’s a good idea. And I– I’m speaking as a psychiatrist right now. S–steffy is going through a tremendous amount of trauma, and I don’t think we should–

Brooke: Yeah, but to let her go on believing that she’s liam’s wife, when he’s married to hope. I mean, that’s crazy. Uh– bridget, what do you think? Should steffy be told about finn?

Bridget: Mom, there are no easy answers here. Given steffy’s current condition and how fragile she is, I do have to agree with taylor here. We cannot dredge up steffy’s trauma. Not yet.

Nurse: Excuse me. Well, ms. Forrester’s asking for her husband.

[ Hope sighing ]

Liam: Yeah. Okay. We– I mean, we don’t want to upset her. We know that, right? Because her– her condition is fragile, like you just said. Maybe the best thing right now is just let keep believing what she’s believing. I–I– okay. Here we go.

Steffy: Oh, thank god. I thought you might have left.

Liam: I didn’t leave, I told you I was– I was right outside those doors. I didn’t go anywhere.

Steffy: I– I was so scared, liam. I– I was shot?

Liam: Um, yeah, you were. Yeah, but, but you know something? You’re going to be okay. Everything’s going to be okay. Listen to me. You are an extraordinary woman, and you are going to be 100%, in no time. You just got to tell me you believe that.

Steffy: I do. I do. I believe you.

Liam: Good.

Steffy: Yeah, as long as I have you, my husband, by my side. Just please tell me you’re not going to leave me. Please tell me I’m not going to be alone?

Liam: I’m not going to leave you. And you’re not going to be alone.

Update written by Joseph

Jennifer asks Abigail if she was able to make the deal with Melinda for Ava but Abigail says she wasn’t able to get a hold of her, so she assumes she’s still thinking it over. Jennifer complains about Gwen knocking Abigail out. Abigail hopes Melinda will grant Ava immunity but reminds Jennifer that they have to keep quiet as they can’t tip Gwen off. Gwen then comes back in to the room in her wedding dress. Abigail and Jennifer remark that she looks beautiful while Gwen talks about marrying the man of her dreams.

Xander and Jack talk about the wedding in the town square. Xander jokes with Jack about calling him dad. Xander then gets a call from Maggie, so he assumes it’s about Sarah as he answers the phone.

Bonnie joins Justin in the living room of the Kiriakis Mansion. Justin mentions officiating the wedding. Bonnie talks about wanting to be at the wedding for Nancy because she knows it will be difficult for her to see Craig marry someone else, especially Leo Stark. Justin mentions not being a big fan of Leo either, especially after what he did to Sonny. Bonnie says it’s a shame that Sonny couldn’t change Craig’s mind. Justin agrees and guesses there is nothing anyone can say or do to change Craig’s mind about Leo.

Craig and Leo talk about getting ready for their wedding in their room. Leo tells Craig to head to the town square and he will see him at the altar, so Craig exits. Leo then makes a phone call, wondering why they are not picking up as the wedding is about to start and he really needs to talk to them.

Xander thanks Maggie and says he’ll see her soon as he then hangs up. Jack asks what she said. Xander says she just wanted to wish him well. Jack asks about Sarah. Xander says there’s no change in her condition which Jack is sorry to hear. Jennifer joins them. Jack asks about Abigail and Gwen. Jennifer says they are in the lobby getting ready. Xander remarks that his bride always has a trick up her sleeve.

Gwen thanks Abigail, who says she is just doing her job. Gwen thanks Abigail for being there for her as her matron of honor. Abigail responds that they are both exactly where they need to be. Gwen asks where Chad is. Abigail informs her that Chad and Sonny had to make a quick trip out of town. Gwen guesses he won’t be coming tonight. Abigail says they were hoping he’d get back in time for the wedding, but that doesn’t look like it will be happening.

In the town square, Brady asks Justin to stall the wedding for as long as he can and to not let Craig and Leo get married. Justin asks why. Brady tells him that he and Chloe hope this match made in Hell goes up in flames. Chloe hugs Craig and tells him that she’s sorry Parker couldn’t make it. Craig understands it’s last minute and mentions inviting Nancy, but he thinks it might have been too much. Chloe agrees but then Nancy arrives which makes Craig smile. Nancy joins Bonnie, who questions her not bringing her new man and asks if the date didn’t go well. Nancy reveals it went great and they are having dinner tomorrow night which excites Bonnie. Bonnie asks why he didn’t escort her to the wedding. Nancy says she decided to go solo and stand on her own two feet. Bonnie encourages that she will be there to hold her up. Craig tells Justin that it’s time to get this show on the road which Xander agrees with. Justin states that they have two weddings coming right up as Brady watches on.

Gwen asks Abigail if there’s something she’s not telling her about Chad not being there. Abigail promises it has nothing to do with her. Gwen says she is glad. Gwen adds that Abigail may not believe it, but she’s really glad she is there for her today. Gwen acknowledges that they have had ups and downs, but she is her sister and she wants today to be a fresh start for both of them. Jack and Chloe enter the room. Chloe tells them that they are about to start and asks Gwen if she is ready. Gwen confirms that she is. Jack tells her that she looks radiant. Gwen thanks him and talks about wanting a father for so long and now he’s going to walk her down the aisle. Jack encourages that she is marrying the man she loves while surrounded by family. Gwen responds that she’s just not used to being happy. Jack tells her to get used to it and that he loves her as they hug. Chloe asks Abigail if she’s seen Leo. Abigail says she hasn’t, so Chloe hopes he got cold feet.

Brady texts Chad, asking where he is because the wedding is about to start. The music then begins as Xander and Craig stand with Justin at the altar. Abigail then comes out from the Salem Inn and walks down the aisle, then takes her seat next to Jennifer. Jack then walks Gwen down the aisle to Xander. Jack then sits next to Jennifer. Chloe then walks down the aisle and hugs Craig, before taking her seat next to Brady. Leo then makes a grand entrance down the aisle, causing laughter from the audience. Gwen and Leo compliment each other. Leo comments on Justin drawing up the pre-nup so fast. Justin then begins the ceremony of the double wedding and thanks everyone for being there. Justin speaks about marriage and asks if anyone objects to the wedding. Justin then goes to continue, but Nancy stands up and announces that she has something to say. Bonnie questions what she’s doing. Craig and Leo wonder what she’s doing. Chloe tells Nancy that it’s not the right time but Nancy says she needs to say this. Nancy tells Craig that they may no longer be married, but they will always be family and nothing will ever change that, so she just wanted to wish him all the happiness in the world. Craig thanks her and tells her how much that means to him. Leo thanks Nancy for saying that, even though it’s in the middle of his wedding. Nancy adds that she just wants to say that she has a date tomorrow night. Craig turns to Justin to continue the wedding. Justin comments that Nancy’s speech highlights that they are all here to support the two couples. Justin acknowledges Jack being Xander’s best man and also walking Gwen down the aisle while Abigail is standing up for her sister. Justin points out Chloe being here for her father. Leo questions if they are doing roll call. Justin asks if Leo doesn’t have anyone there for him tonight. Leo claims that they had scheduling snafus, but now he thinks he should have a best man of his own. Leo then pronounces Brady as his best man and tells him to give a nice speech at the reception. Justin then decides on a prayer but Leo argues that they are here to get married. Leo suggests they can do the prayer after he marries them. Justin then reluctantly guesses it’s time to continue the vows. Justin picks Gwen and Xander to go first but Gwen thinks Leo and Craig should go first since they were so generous to share their wedding with them and they are so grateful. Leo responds that he would do anything for Gwen. Justin asks if there’s anything Leo and Craig want to say before they start their vows. Leo thanks everyone for coming and calls it the happiest day of his life. Leo jokes that he would be jealous of Gwen if his situation was different and remarks that she’s a very lucky lady but Craig is the only man for him. Leo talks about being aimless and lost before he met Craig. Leo says he’s now happy and eager to share the rest of his life with Craig. Leo calls Craig his everything and vows to love him forever. Justin asks if Craig has anything to say. Craig says he wouldn’t be able to get it out as he wipes tears from his eyes and then motions for Justin to continue. Justin guesses there is nothing more to do but move on to the official vows. Justin goes to start but pretends to start sneezing. Justin then asks Leo if he takes Craig to be his lawfully wedded husband. Leo says hell yeah. Justin then asks Craig if he takes Leo to be his lawfully wedded husband. Craig says “I do”. Chloe complains to Brady that it’s really happening. Justin asks for the rings which Chloe hands over to Craig. Leo and Craig place the rings on each others’ fingers. Justin starts to make it official but Chad runs in, yelling for them to stop. Chad declares that this wedding cannot happen. Gwen asks Chad not to do this. Chad tells Gwen that this is not about her, but about Leo which Craig questions. Chad tells Craig that there is something he needs to know. Leo tells Chad to sit down as there is nothing he can do to stop this marriage from happening. Chad then asks about the fact that Leo is already married, shocking everyone in attendance!

Craig questions Leo, who denies it and calls this completely ridiculous. Leo tells him not to listen to anything Chad has to say as it’s just another attempt to break them up. Leo complains that Chad refuses to believe that somebody can change for the better and declares that every word out of Chad’s mouth is a lie. Chad knows they have every reason to doubt him, so they can instead listen to world renowned drag queen Jackie Cox, who then arrives. Jackie is sorry to crash the wedding but loves some wedding drama. Craig questions who the hell this is. Chad introduces Jackie as Leo’s BFF, who they met in Arizona last year. Leo questions what Jackie is doing here. Jackie talks about performing in New York when Chad and Sonny showed up backstage. Chad notes that Sonny got a work call on the way here, otherwise he would have had a front row seat. Jackie explains that Chad and Sonny offered a private jet to come reveal the truth, which is that Leo is already married. Leo questions how that would even be possible as he wouldn’t have been able to get a marriage license. Jackie says they both know it’s because Leo married Jackie, using his birth name of Matthew Cooper. Leo asks if they can go somewhere and talk but Jackie thinks this is the perfect setting. Chloe tells Brady that this is more than she hoped for. Craig asks Leo what the hell is going on. Leo argues that Chad must have paid Jackie off to spread these terrible lies. Jackie tells Leo to save it and reveals their marriage certificate. Jennifer and Jack whisper about what is going on. Craig reads the marriage certificate which says that Matthew Cooper is wedded to Darius Rose. Craig asks who the hell is Darius Rose. Leo claims that there is no Darius Rose because this is all made up. Jackie then declares that they need to set the record straight.

Jackie Cox removes the drag queen makeup, revealing himself to be Darius Rose, husband of Matthew Cooper. Craig questions Leo being married to him. Leo then admits that he and Darius were married while Darius quickly clarifies that they are married. Leo says it’s not what it looks like so Craig questions him. Leo explains that Darius needed a green card because he’s from Canada, so they had to get married and he did it as a favor to a friend. Craig asks if they are just friends then. Leo admits they hooked up a few times but realized they were better off as sisters. Craig asks Darius if that’s true. Darius confirms that these days, their relationship is strictly platonic. Chloe argues that it doesn’t change the fact that Leo just tried to commit bigamy if Chad and Jackie hadn’t shown up, then Craig would be roped into a fraudulent marriage. Leo apologizes to Craig and claims that he tried to tell him, but he proposed out of the blue and it was so sweet and then the wedding got moved up, so he got caught up in everything. Leo argues that it was not a real marriage. Brady argues that Leo still lied to Craig. Leo complains that it was to protect a friend since if he divorced Darius, he’d lose his green card and get sent back to Canada. Craig calls this a very complicated situation. Chloe feels it’s not that complicated. Craig tells Leo that he’s not happy that he lied to him, but he gets it. Chloe can’t believe it while Leo thanks Craig. Brady argues that it doesn’t matter whether Craig forgives him or not, because Leo is still married so they can’t go through with this wedding. Craig asks Justin if there’s anything he can do to help figure this out. Justin says he can look at options but it will take some time. Craig asks if it can happen today but Justin declares that he cannot sanction this marriage. Leo decides it’s disappointing but maybe for the best. Leo points out all the angry, judgmental faces and says when they do get married, it should be around people who support and love them, not haters. Chad questions Leo blaming them. Leo tells Craig they should get out of here and let Xander and Gwen get married which Craig agrees with. Bonnie starts to argue that Leo is taking Craig for a ride. Leo explains that he married Darius because he would go to the ends of the earth to help a friend but when he marries Craig, it will be for love only. Chad responds that he’s not buying that and instructs Darius to tell them. Craig questions there being more. Chad reminds Darius that he said he would tell the whole truth. Darius then agrees to tell the truth because he’s a big fan of honesty in certain situations. Darius then announces that Leo doesn’t love Craig because he really cares that he’s a doctor, who rakes in the big bucks. Craig asks Leo how Darius knows this. Darius reveals that he is Leo’s confidant and Leo has told him that their entire relationship has been one big flim flam. Craig disagrees but Darius insists that to Leo, Craig is just a mark. Leo swears it’s not true. Darius argues that Leo has been targeting Craig since the moment he met him at the medical convention. Craig questions Darius knowing about that. Darius repeats that he’s Leo’s confidant and says when Leo came home that night, talking about a rich, hot doctor, they discussed how Craig would be easily susceptible to Leo’s charms. Chad adds that they concocted a plan to get Craig to marry Leo illegally, then divorce him and take him to the cleaners. Leo shouts that they are lying and he would never do that to him, reminding that he signed the pre-nup. Darius offers to show the text messages. Gwen interrupts to ask why Darius would blow up his own plan and stab Leo in the back before getting his pay off. Darius argues that Leo stabbed him in the back first by signing the pre-nup, giving up his right to Craig’s money, when half of that was supposed to be his. Darius yells that Leo screwed him over. Leo argues that he tried to call and tell him but his mailbox was full. Craig asks if it’s true then that this was all a scam. Leo says no, but then admits it was in the beginning until he really fell for him along the way. Leo insists that it’s not a lie which is why he signed the pre-nup, because he didn’t care about the money and only wanted Craig. Leo tells Craig that he’s telling him the truth. Craig asks when Leo fell in love with him. Leo admits he’s not sure but it might have been when he was defending him to Chloe or when they were in bed talking about their future or maybe when he proposed, but somewhere along the way, he stopped being the mark and started being the man he loves. Leo asks Craig if he can forgive him and if they can move past this. Craig instead walks away back down the aisle.

Chad thanks Darius for coming and says he really helped them out. Darius thanks Chad but admits he feels guilty for wrecking Leo like that. Abigail says telling Craig the truth was the right thing to do. Chad tells Darius that his driver will take him back to get back to New York whenever he’s ready. Darius tells Chad that he likes his style as they shake hands. Abigail tells Darius that they want to come see his show sometime. Darius says they will be his guests. Abigail then gets a call and steps away to answer.

Brady stops Leo and tells him he’s not going anywhere near Craig again because it’s over.

Chloe goes to see Craig in his room. Chloe cries that she’s so sorry. Craig asks why that is since she got what she wanted as they stopped him from marrying Leo and made a fool out of him. Chloe says it wasn’t about that and he’s not a fool for falling in love. Craig breaks down crying as Chloe hugs him.

Nancy tells Bonnie that she wants to go comfort Craig, but that’s not her job anymore. Bonnie assures that Chloe’s doing a good job and suggests they go get a drink, so they walk off together. Chad comments to Jack and Jennifer that Abigail has been on the phone for awhile, so he asks if they know who she is talking to. Jack suggests it could be Spectator business. Jennifer says there is something they should probably know. Jennifer adds that she wasn’t going to say anything but they should be prepared. Xander and Gwen interrupt. Xander talks about Salem weddings being notorious for drama but he didn’t see bigamy and a drag queen wedding crasher coming. Gwen asks if Chad really had to humiliate Leo so publicly. Chad says his intention was to tell Craig the truth that he was about to make the mistake of his life. Justin declares that it’s clear that Leo and Craig are out of the wedding, so he asks what Xander and Gwen want to do. Gwen supposes there’s no reason they can’t still get married but Abigail returns and reveals that actually there is.

Ashland: Okay, I met with victor and adam, and it’s done. I see no reason to stay in this town one minute longer. You ready to go?

Victoria: Did you really think that I would run away with you, after everything you put me through? Did you really believe that this wasn’t the absolute end for us?

Ashland: I’m not sure what you’re saying right now.

Victoria: I told you whatever you wanted to hear so that you would sign everything away. I wanted out of this marriage and I want you out of this company.

Ashland: No, just — just hold on for one second. Wh–

Victoria: You pride yourself on being one step ahead of everyone else. Are you telling me you didn’t see this coming?

Ashland: Okay, okay, I will admit that I didn’t know what to think in the last few days, but when you agreed to run away with me to tuscany to — to — to get out of this town and start fresh, I thought that was our chance, victoria. I was overjoyed. I didn’t question it. I didn’t want to question it because I actually thought — and I still think — that we can get out of here and we could make this work.

Victoria: [ Groans ] Everything I said to you the past couple of days has been a lie. Not some grand fabrication that “I have cancer and I’m dying,” but a lie nonetheless. And now you know you’ve been deceived. So all of those feelings that you might be having right now of betrayal and humiliation, I know them — I know them well. It’s your turn now.

Sharon: Mr. Anderson, I told you that my husband wouldn’t appreciate — [ Gasps ] Oh, oh, it’s you.

Rey: I’m so sorry to disappoint.

Sharon: I’m not disappointed to see you ever.

Rey: Mwah.

Sharon: Especially in that jacket.

Rey: Mm. You like it?

Sharon: Very sharp. Did you get it for your trip to chicago?

Rey: No, no, not exactly, but I thought chicago would be a good place to debut it. Have you seen connor and chelsea?

Sharon: Not yet.

Rey: Thanks again for being okay with me going.

Sharon: No thanks necessary.

Rey: I know, I know, but it’s a little weird I’m taking another woman and her son to a hockey game.

Sharon: There’s nothing strange about it.

Rey: [ Chuckles ] I’m spending the night in chicago. A lot of wives would disapprove. Thank you for being so understanding.

Sharon: The most important thing is that connor will have a great time. And who are we kidding? I think that you’re more excited than he is.

Rey: Oh, it’s my first live hockey game, huh?

Sharon: Mm-hmm.

Rey: There they are!

Connor: Hey, rey.

Rey: What’s up, buddy? Ready for the big game?

Connor: Yeah, it’s going to be so fun. I get to watch the blackhawks in person, but the best part is i get to go with you, rey. No offense, mom.

Chelsea: Oh, listen, none taken. I’m just along for the ride. I feel like I’m a chaperone for these two because rey actually knows the sport and how to play the game.

Rey: Don’t undersell yourself, chelsea. It’s gonna be a great night for all of us, huh?

Victor: Thank you, son. Well, your deal worked. Ashland locke hopefully will be out of our lives very soon.

Adam: Mm. Well, it was my idea, but when ashland asked if you were on board, you backed me up. And that’s what made it successful.

Victor: We make a good team.

Adam: I’m sure victoria’s gonna be irritated that the plan that worked wasn’t hers. She never got the satisfaction, even temporarily, of throwing me under the bus. She would have loved to see me squirm.

Victor: There’s no place for sibling rivalry right now, okay? Considering what your sister’s gone through, just be happy to be rid of that fraud, okay? You should have feelings of compassion now for your sister, not competition. Alright?

Victoria: Do you know how insulting it is that you thought I would believe you were set up? I mean, how stupid did you think I would have to be to think that someone would go to all the trouble of making it look like you had faked your illness for months? Do you take me for an idiot, ashland?

Ashland: No, no, I do not. But, victoria, what was i supposed to do? With all the evidence that was being built up against me, was i supposed to come to you and say, “hey, that this terrible thing, I lied, I made a mistake”? Would you have forgiven me for that? Could you have forgiven me?

[ Sighs ] No, I don’t think so. And, no, I didn’t actually believe that you were gonna buy into the story that I had been set up. I — not in your head. But in your heart — in your heart, I thought maybe you wanted to believe it was the truth. That’s what I was hoping for.

Victoria: And that’s why you kept lying?

Ashland: I was stalling. I was trying to buy time because I honestly believed that our love would win out in the end, that — that somehow we could — we could go off and have a future together.

Victoria: Future? After what you did to me, we could never, ever have a future.

Ashland: I still think that we —

Victoria: No, stop it. There’s no point in you continuing to lie to me. You didn’t get control of newman/locke, okay? So maybe you just can take some comfort in what you do have — you have money and you have freedom.

Ashland: I don’t give a damn about the money. And I don’t care about the freedom if it means going off without you. All I want is you. Sweet pillows of softness!

Victor: Son… I did give you credit for coming up with the idea that finally got rid of ashland locke. But it’s not enough for you, is it?

Adam: [ Chuckles ]

Victor: Huh? You should be happy we’ll get rid of that son of a bitch. He’s out of our company, out of victoria’s life.

Adam: I agree. I agree. I retract my comment.

Victor: Alright.

Adam: I will try to focus on staying positive.

Victor: Good.

Adam: As hard as this is for victoria, I know that she’s going to move past it, no matter how long it takes. I’ll give her credit for being tough.

Victor: And I do, trust me.

Adam: Mm-hmm.

Victor: She’s endured a lot.

Adam: Yeah, but I also recognize that this is gonna take a while to move past. She’s gonna need time to recover. And even though she is tough, you know, we need to do what’s best for her moving forward.

Victor: Exactly.

Adam: You know the brilliant part of my plan is we get to keep everything that locke brought into the merger. We now have complete control over his empire, along with newman enterprises. I mean, we almost doubled our value for a mere $500 million. That’s a bargain.

Victor: [ Chuckles ] Interesting how things work out sometimes, isn’t it?

Victoria: All you want is me.

[ Scoffs ] Oh, wow, you — you are relentless. And you do not lack commitment, I’ll give you that. Commitment to the scam, not to me, obviously. But you have — you’ve played the dutiful, devoted husband all the way to the bitter end.

Ashland: I’m not playing at anything. It’s what I believe. You have to know that.

Victoria: I don’T. Why don’t you just admit it — admit what you did?

Ashland: I have.

Victoria: No. No, you haven’T. The whole thing. I want to know how you used me. I-I want to know how you could sink to such a disgusting low, lying about a disease that — that ruins so many people’s lives.

Ashland: You want the whole story, you want the truth?

Victoria: Yeah, I do. I do.

[ Laughs ] I think I deserve that.

Ashland: Fine. Here it is. I lied about having cancer.

Victoria: Finally. Finally some honesty. There’s a start.

Ashland: But that’s not the whole truth, victoria. The whole truth is not what you think it is. I didn’t come here with my sights set on newman enterprises. But then this thing happened. I found out my wife was cheating on me and that my son harrison was not my biological son, and in that moment, everything changed for me.

Victoria: You would use your child as an excuse?

Victoria: I was devastated. I was furious. The — the infamous locke ness monster kicked in the gut. But I saw an opportunity.

[ Chuckles ] Something bigger than I’d ever done before. And I channeled all of that righteous anger into going after your family’s company.

Victoria: Well, you didn’t waste any time, did you? You asked me to new york to have dinner with you after you learned about harrison.

Ashland: That’s right.

Victoria: And while we were there, you told me about your cancer diagnosis.

Ashland: I had momentum. I was moving forward.

[ Chuckles ] And it was so, so easy to sell the story that the scans after my heart attack showed signs of cancer.

Victoria: You know…I was surprised that you wanted me around when you were dealing with that news. I mean, we were — we were basically strangers, and now i know why. I know why. Because you knew that it would create an instant bond and that we would have trust and intimacy, and, of course, you would induce compassion out of me. Yeah, it was all very deliberate.

Ashland: That’s right.

Victoria: You know it’s one thing for you to do something like this to me, but how could you let that sweet, little, innocent boy think that you were dying? What defense do you have of that behavior?

Ashland: None. But I did what I could to keep harrison out of it.

Victoria: And that’s why you didn’t fight kyle in taking him to italy.

Ashland: That’s right.

Victoria: Because you could continue your scam and you could get all of your business arrangements in place, and then you would make the announcement that you had miraculously recovered. And you wouldn’t have to look that little boy in the eye and lie to him the way you did to me.

Ashland: I don’t deny any of it. I took advantage of you, of your immense heart. I worked an angle to win your love and your trust.

Victoria: You convinced me and everybody else that you were dying. Death — that was your angle?

Ashland: It was.

Victoria: All of it was to get your hands on my family’s company. And the merger — I mean, the merger was like your ultimate power grab. It was also the most selfish and disgusting move of your entire career.

Ashland: All of that is true. In fact, there was a time that i was even proud of myself. Can you believe that? But then this other thing happened. Something extraordinary. Something shocking. I, honest to god, fell in love with you. I’m steve, I lost 138 pounds in nine months on golo

Chelsea: Now, you behave. Thank you so much, sharon.

Sharon: Hope this will be enough.

Chelsea: I don’t mean just for the snacks. I mean for lending us rey for the evening. It really means a lot to connor.

Sharon: Yeah, I know it does. And I think staying in chicago tonight after the game makes sense.

Chelsea: Yeah, I mean, it’s just so late for connor, you know? The game doesn’t end till after his bedtime.

Sharon: Yeah. And it can get pretty foggy this time of year. It might not be that safe driving home so late. I just want you to bring rey home safe and sound.

Chelsea: We will do that.

Sharon: Um…you know what? Besides, I-I’m gonna have the house to myself tonight, and i can sit on the couch and watch my shows — the ones that rey always pretends to like, for my sake.

Chelsea: Yeah, sounds like a perfect evening.

Rey: So what are you most excited about seeing live?

Connor: A slap shot, ’cause I’m working on mine. It’s a really complicated move.

[ Grunts ]

Rey: Oh, give me some. Yes, sir.

Sharon: So any special requests for the road?

Chelsea: No. Plus, it looks like you put one of everything in here, so thank you. It’s very generous.

Sharon: It’s my pleasure.

Chelsea: Is it?

Sharon: What do you mean?

Chelsea: I just mean you’re going above and beyond to help prepare us for this trip to chicago.

Sharon: Is that a problem?

Chelsea: I don’t know. I get the sense that you’re not happy about this trip. But you’re working hard to come off like you are okay with it, so I just want to know, truly, are you okay with everything that’s happening tonight?

Nick: I keep calling victoria. There’s no answer.

Nikki: Well, I left her at the office a little while ago while ashland was talking to victor and adam. Did everything go as planned?

Victor: Ashland locke accepted the offer to leave. And he signed away control of both companies.

And he annulled his marriage to our daughter.

Nikki: Oh, thank god.

Nick: Wow.

Nikki: Well, I guess adam’s plan worked.

Nick: Good job, adam.

Nikki: I admit, I was a little skeptical, but you really came through.

Adam: Thank you. It’s all about helping the family.

Nick: Does victoria know yet?

Victor: Yeah, I told her as soon as locke left the office.

Nick: How did she react?

Victor: She didn’T. I have a feeling that she’s in the office right now, and I feel that ashland locke is with her.

Nick: Wonder how that conversation is going.

Victor: Yeah.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] I hope it’s nothing more than “goodbye and good riddance.” Victoria did tell me that she intended to walk away from him, but in order to get her to agree to this deal, she had to make him think that they would still be together in spite of the annulment.

Nick: And now he knows that is not the case.

Nikki: I hope so. I have no idea how he’s gonna react or the toll that it will take on victoria. He is just such a terrible person. But her feelings for him were real. She’s still reconciling the relationship she thought they had with the reality.

Nick: Vick’s a very strong, very proud woman. I know she can handle herself. It’s ashland I’m worried about.

Victoria: You “honest to god” fell in love with me. You know, I would be shocked if you even understood what any of those words even mean.

Ashland: I do. And I know they’re true.

Victoria: Those are empty words coming from a man who doesn’t have faith in anyone or anything but himself.

Ashland: I believe that we can get past this, victoria. I still believe that. I have never loved anyone as profoundly as I love you. Without you, if I walk out that door, I will be a lost man, without direction. No idea where to go. For the first time in my life, i don’t know what to do next.

Rey: What do you think — am I too old to learn how to play hockey?

Connor: Of course not.

Rey: Cool, so maybe after our trip, you can take me down to the rink, show me some things?

Connor: That would be cool.

Sharon: Of course I’m okay with rey going to chicago with you and connor. Why wouldn’t I be? And he told me how it happened. You had a business trip out of town, so you asked rey to take connor to the game, and then your trip got postponed, but you managed to get another ticket and you still wanted rey to come.

Chelsea: Well, connor had his heart set on it.

Sharon: I think it’ll be good for rey. He really likes how connor looks up to him.

Chelsea: I didn’t think that you had an issue with rey taking connor to the game. I thought maybe you would have an issue with rey spending time with me, given our history.

Sharon: Do you mean the history between you and me or history between you and rey, given that you once poisoned him?

Chelsea: All of it. I just want you to be comfortable, sharon.

Sharon: Well, I think I’ve made it very clear that my position is this is all behind us, in the past. And I know that you’re doing a lot better — much better than you have been doing in a very long time.

Chelsea: I am. I am, and I would never do anything to undermine that. You and rey have been so kind to me since I came back to town. You’ve offered me friendship again, which is shocking ’cause I really don’t deserve it. I won’t forget it.

Sharon: I’m sure you won’T.

Chelsea: That’s why I just want to live my best life from here on out. It’s also why I’m being up front with you. I hope you’ll be the same with me.

Victor: Why would you say you’re worried about locke?

Nick: We have to watch ashland until we are certain he’s gone for good.

Victor: Well, I told them to watch him all the time. Okay? I asked them to stop watching victoria and follow ashland locke. If that man makes one wrong step, I’m gonna get him.

Victoria: I have no sympathy for you. I have — I have none left to give. You had every opportunity to come to me before tonight, but all I got from you was lie upon lie. And the only reason you came clean is because you were backed into a corner. You got caught. That’s not love.

Ashland: I know it looks that way from your point of view, victoria, but —

Victoria: And then you told me that there was nothing left to hide, but there was — there always was more. And what is so demoralizing is that I knew it. I saw who you were because you showed me who you were over and over again. Taking your — your dead best friend’s identity so that you could start a new life, and then forging a letter so that you could get your hands on your mentor’s fortune. And I believed all of your excuses. I believed them, and I looked past them. I looked past all of your former sins because I wanted to believe that you had changed.

Ashland: I have —

Victoria: I wanted to believe that that was because of me.

Ashland: I have changed. I gave up my life’s work — locke communications group — i did that to show you I would do anything for you.

Victoria: Why would I believe anything that comes out of your mouth? Why? It’s over! And when you walk out of those doors, I don’t care what happens to you.

Ashland: I don’t believe you.

Who’s on it with jardiance?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Sharon: I think transparency is a great idea. Honestly, I’m really glad that we get along these days. It’s a relief. Don’t you think?

Chelsea: It is.

Sharon: Alright, so let’s not go looking for problems where there are none.

Chelsea: I’m really glad you feel that way, because you have nothing to worry about.

Connor: Mom, we should go soon.

Chelsea: I think you’re right. We should.

Rey: I hope I get to catch a puck.

Chelsea: I just hope you don’t catch it with your teeth.

Rey: Oh, well, that would make for a fun night, huh?

[ Laughter ]

Ashland: I deserve your scorn, your outrage, your hatred. All of that is justified, but i think deep down inside you are as conflicted as I am. There is still something between us, victoria. Let’s get out of here. Leave your family, leave this town, and start over.

Victoria: I am starting over. But not with you.

Ashland: Okay. The only thing left to say is… I’m sorry.

Nick: Any word from the security detail?

Victor: It seems that locke is leaving the building alone. Hopefully our daughter’s done with him once and for all.

Victoria: [ Screams ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Panting ] Are you one of the millions of americans

Nikki: Oh, my god.

[ Gasps ]

Nick: What happened here?

Nikki: I thought you said ashland left peacefully.

Victor: They assured me he did.

Nikki: [ Sighs ]

Victor: I bet you…victoria did this.

Adam: I can’t say I blame her for needing to blow off some steam, but seems like the work of someone who’s in a lot of pain.

Nick: I’m gonna call security. Yeah, this is nick newman. When’s the last time anyone saw my sister in the building? Was she alone? Alright, thanks. Security saw victoria leaving the parking garage five minutes ago. No sign of ashland.

Nikki: I’m calling her.

Victor: Please, sweetheart, just give her some time alone, okay? Why don’t we — I don’t know, let’s just get out of here.

Nick: Yeah, why don’t we grab something to eat?

Adam: Uh, I appreciate the invitation, but actually I have some things that I need to take care of, so let me know if there’s anything else that I can help with.

Victor: Okay, we’ll do that.

Nikki: What could have made her do this?

Victor: [ Sighs ]

Nick: Alright, let’s, uh — let’s go with society, okay? I got to make a quick stop, but I’ll meet you there. Mom? Dad?

Victor: I’m sorry, son, I’m checking with security right now. We’ll be seeing you at the restaurant, okay?

Nick: Mom, I know you’re worried, alright? But I think dad’s right — vick just needs some space, alright? Let’s give her some time alone and respect her choice.

Nikki: I just want to help her get through this as best i can.

Victor: [ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ] This is so upsetting. We all will, my darling, when the time is right.

Adam: Sally. I have great news. My plan worked. That’s right. Locke is on his way out of town right now, all thanks to me. Yeah, my father is very happy. He’s very appreciative. No, I don’t know, I didn’t want to push the “can I keep the job” angle. It just didn’t seem like the appropriate time. But, you know, when the dust settles, I will broach the subject with him. I agree. I think ashland’s departure is cause for celebration. Uh, well, let’s meet somewhere. That works for me. I, uh — I will be there.

Rey: Alright, we’re going now.

Sharon: Great, I have two coffees for the road — one for you, one for chelsea.

Rey: Wow, you’re the best.

Sharon: Well, if I’m not the best, I’m pretty high up there.

Rey: You definitely are.

Sharon: Would you please call or text when you get to chicago? I just want to know that you’re safe.

Rey: I will, I will, but don’t you worry — I got connor to protect me.

Sharon: Right.

Rey: [ Chuckles ]

Sharon: Wait.

Rey: You remember that when i get back.

Sharon: I will. I love you.

Rey: I love you. Alright, let’s hit the road.

Connor: Yeah!

Rey: Okay, I got coffee, snacks, my phone, keys, tickets.

Chelsea: Yeah, I have my ticket right here. You have the ones for you and connor?

Rey: For sure. Where are they?

Chelsea: Oh, did you forget the tickets?

Rey: Oh, I must have left them in my other jacket. Mm.

Connor: Oh, no.

Rey: But it’s okay, it’s all good. I’ll drive home, pick them up, meet you guys back here, and then we’ll head out.

Chelsea: Yeah, it’ll be okay.

Connor: I don’t want to be late for the game. Please hurry.

Rey: I will. I’ll be back before you know it, okay?

Sharon: See you soon.

Rey: See you soon. If your moderate to severe crohn’s disease

Chelsea: We’ll just wait out here, get out of the way.

Nick: Hey, I’m glad you’re here.

Sharon: Hey, what’s up?

Nick: Well, it turns out you were right.

Sharon: About what?

Nick: Victoria absolutely does not want me intervening with ashland, and she told me that when I went to see her.

Sharon: Were you at least able to be supportive like i suggested?

Nick: I tried my very best. The good news is ashland has decided to accept adam’s deal, so we’re not gonna have to deal with him for very much longer.

Sharon: Well, that’s good news for victoria and for the newmans in general.

Nick: It’s a giant relief. You know, I got to hand it to adam. He really stepped up for the family. My concern is he’s not just gonna accept a thank-you card for his efforts.

Sharon: What do you mean?

Nick: I think it’s gonna be very difficult to get him out of the ceo seat, so we may have gotten rid of one mess, but there’s another one right around the corner.

Sharon: Well, I hope not.

Nick: You alright?

Sharon: Yeah, just, uh, been a long day.

Adam: Sally? Sally? “Get comfortable and enjoy. Drink to your success. I’ll be back soon.” To a new beginning.

Victoria: Call mom, mobile.

[ Cellphone vibrates ]

Nikki: [ Gasps ] Victoria, where are you?

Victoria: I’m driving.

Nikki: Well, I’m so happy to hear from you. Your father and I are at society. Can you come join us?

Victoria: That sounds lovely, mom, but I need to do some thinking.

Nikki: Okay. I understand.

Victoria: I just wanted to call you and let you know that I’m okay.

Nikki: Well, I’m so glad you did. And don’t worry, everything will work out.

Victoria: Will it, really?

Nikki: Yes, of course it will.

Victoria: Because I really don’t think that anything is gonna be okay ever again. I loved him. I did, and he made a fool out of me. And I kept going back to him. I almost left with him tonight.

Nikki: Victoria, where are you? I will come get you.

Victoria: What is wrong with me? How could I let this happen? I loved him.

Nikki: Listen to me. I want you to pull over right now. Your father and I will come find you. And everything’s gonna be fine.

Victoria: No, everything is not gonna be fine. I keep making the same mistakes with men. [ Screams ]

[ Brakes squeal ]

[ Crashing ]

Nikki: Victoria?! Victoria?

[ Feet shuffling in distance ]

[ Feet shuffling ]

Drew: Ha-ha! [ Breathing sharply ] Oh! Whoa-oh-oh!

[ Both breathing heavily ]

Drew: What is this?

Michael What? What do you mean? What?

Drew: You taking it easy on me because I’m family?

Michael: Oh, since when does our family go easy on each other, huh?

Drew: Aha. That’s a good point. That’s a good point.

Michael: [ Sighs ] Yeah, I suppose I am a little distracted, though.

[ Boxing gloves tap ]

Michael: I, uh — look, Nina’s taking us to court.

Drew: [ Sighing ] Oh. Over Wiley?

Michael: Yeah. [ Sighs ]

Drew: [ Sighs ]

Michael: And I talked Willow into fighting back in a way that, uh, well, let’s just say, might have some serious repercussions.

Drew: [ Sighs deeply ] That’s it. Come on. Get it out there. There you go. Oh, oh. I see, I see.

TJ: Grandpa. Hey.

[ Bag thuds ]

TJ: I just saw Aunt Stella.

Marshall: And?

TJ: She fussed all over me, said it doesn’t look like I’m eating enough.

Marshall: Well, it sounds like she’s back to her old self.

TJ: Right.

Marshall: That’s good.

TJ: Mm-hmm. I made sure to let uncle Curtis now. Nothing’s more important to him than family.

Portia: I’ve seen you go outside the law time and time again to protect your family.

Jordan: And it’s brought nothing but trouble. Which is why I have to play everything by the book.

Portia: Oh, of course you do now, because this is my daughter we’re talking about. Which begs the question… you know what? Never mind. Mnh-mnh.

Jordan: No. You clearly want to say something, so say it.

Portia: I want to know if you’re making this personal, Jordan.

Jordan: I have no reason to make this personal.

Portia: Oh? Oh, really? ‘Cause I can think of one. He used to be your husband.

Jordan: [ Scoffs ]

Curtis: Okay, ladies, take a breath, all right? Before something is said that you can’t take back.

Cameron: Hey, Spencer. Why don’t you put on an apron and — I don’t know — help?

Spencer: All of my energy needs to go into busting Esme right now.

Cameron: Well, some of us can chew gum while we walk. You should try it sometime.

Spencer: You didn’t tell Joss anything, right? About my plan?

Josslyn: Maybe we should try Charlie’s.

Valentin: I considered bringing roses. But they die. Whereas a 2010 Pauillac blend from Bordeaux is immortal.

Anna: I do like roses, though. How are you?

Valentin: I’m better now… that I’m looking at you.

Harmony: No matter what I’ve done, Willow, I’ve done it for you.

Willow: Oh, wait. What do you — what do you mean you did it for me? What have you done?

Harmony: Oh, just, um, for starters, I — I declined Nina’s lawyer’s request to speak on her behalf at the hearing.

Willow: Nina’s behalf?

Harmony: Yeah, and I hope it doesn’t backfire and make her even angrier.

Willow: [ Scoffs ] Mom. There is no depth that woman won’t sink to. First, she asks you to try and convince me, your own daughter, to let her see Wiley, and now she wants you to go against me in court? I mean, how does anyone so underhanded live with herself?

Harmony: I wish I knew.

[ Water splashing softly, bell clangs in distance ]

Alexis: Oh, my god.

Anna: How was your convalescence?

Valentin: Uh, it was too long. Anna, the wine is an apology.

Anna: Yeah.

Valentin: I’m sorry that I stayed away, that I was out of touch.

Anna: I was worried when I couldn’t reach you. [ Breathes deeply ] But I understand your health takes the priority. How’s charlotte?

Valentin: Uh, she’s away at her new boarding school. Seems happy enough.

Anna: I didn’t realize that she was away.

Valentin: Mm. It was a quick decision, but ultimately a good one.

Anna: Oh. Must be very lonely for you when you return home and she’s not there.

Valentin: I’ll survive. I hear you’ve been doing some traveling.

Anna: Not for pleasure.

Valentin: Congratulations. It was a long and winding road, but you stopped Peter.

Anna: I did.

Marshall: Friendly wager?

TJ: Okay.

Marshall: Let’s see who can lift more.

TJ: Ha! That’s easy money, old man.

Marshall: [ Chuckles ] Those are famous last words coming from I-need-more-meat-on-my-bones.

TJ: Okay. Look. That’s according to Aunt Stella. Look, I could weigh a million pounds, and she would still say the same thing.

Marshall: Yeah, you’re probably right. Mm-hmm.

TJ: But I’m worried about her. I hope she finds a way to manage her anxiety.

Marshall: Your Aunt Stella is a tough cookie.

TJ: You know, being strong has nothing to do with addressing mental health challenges. To get help, she has to seek out that treatment.

Marshall: Mm.

TJ: Do you know what’s on her mind?

Marshall: Oh, come on. [ Chuckles ] Your — your Aunt Stella doesn’t confide in me.

TJ: I mean, it seemed that way. You two had your heads together right before she collapsed.

[ Feet shuffling ]

Drew: Whoa! [ Chuckling ] Hey. Ha! That’s what I’m talking about! He’s back.

Michael: Okay.

Drew: All right. Hey. Look, man, you’re — you’re not doing anything wrong, okay? I would fight for my kids the same way.

Michael: [ Sighs ] Yeah, I’m not sure you’d approve of my tactics, though.

Drew: Oh? You’d be surprised. [ Breathes deeply ] Let me guess — you’re employing questionable strategies to ensure necessary results.

Michael: Yeah.

Drew: Believe me, I’ve been there.

Curtis: It is probably best if we do this in private.

Jordan: I don’t think we need to do this at all.

Portia: So you don’t think that we need to address the elephant in the room, especially since it’s gonna impact my daughter?

Jordan: I was with Curtis. Now he’s with you. Neither of those facts have any bearing on Trina’s situation.

Portia: But it could have an impact on how vigorously you pursue other suspects, other theories. Jordan, given that Trina is my blood, are you telling me that you honestly can be impartial?

Curtis: Uh, you know what? Why don’t we step back? Portia, no one is questioning your right to fight for Trina, and no one is questioning your professionalism.

Jordan: Are you in the same room I am? I resent the implication that my feelings towards Curtis have any bearing on my actions as Police Commissioner, let alone something as important as this.

Portia: So you admit that you do still have feelings for Curtis?

Trina: I’m not going anywhere.

Josslyn: Agreed. Spencer’s the one who should leave.

Spencer: How you doing?

Trina: Does it matter?

Spencer: Of course it matters.

Jordan: Then get your psycho girlfriend to fess up already.

Spencer: Can we please not talk about Esme?

Josslyn: Aw. I thought she was your favorite subject.

Cameron: Okay, look, Spencer was just heading out, right?

Josslyn: What are you even doing here in the first place?

Spencer: It is a public space, last I checked. I mean, with Cameron. Just like us, he wants nothing to do with you.

Cameron: Spencer, uh, came to ask about being put back on the schedule.

Josslyn: [ Scoffs ] You’re not actually giving him his job back?

Spencer: I’m sorry, and how is this your business?

Josslyn: She’s my best friend, and you hurt her. That’s why it’s my business.

Spencer: I want to protect Trina, too!

Drew: You’re a good father, Michael. You’re gonna make the right decision for your family.

Michael: Thanks. So, uh, how’s Scout?

Drew: Fantastic. Oh? She — she asked me to coach her swim team.

Michael: Whoa. [ Chuckles ]

Drew: Right?

Michael: Okay, okay. That — that — hey, that’s awesome, man. I’m happy for you.

Drew: Yeah, thanks. Me too.

Michaeel: So, uh, well, now that things are settled on the Scout front, what’s next?

[ Metal clinks lightly ]

Drew: Can you narrow that down a little bit for me?

Michael: I mean, in terms of your career — you know, what’s — what’s Drew Cain’s future look like?

[ Police radio chatter ]

Rory: Are you cold, Ms. Davis? I have a blanket in my squad car.

Alexis: No, I’m just, uh, shocked.

Rory: Do you know the victim?

Alexis: He was face down. I didn’t see him. I hope not. Happening upon a dead body was not in my plans today.

Rory: Uh, what did you have planned? Can you tell me why you were at the pier and — and what you were doing when you found the body?

Alexis: Y-yes. I was on my way to Spoon Island, and, uh, my nephew lives there. I was gonna visit him.

Willow: Mom…really, are you all right?

Harmony: Yeah. Yes. Uh, yeah, it’s just been, um, it’s been a helluva day. Uh. But I’m so much better now that I’m sitting here with you. Can we please change the subject? [ Chuckles ] How’s nursing school going?

Willow: [ Breathes deeply ] I am studying hard for my final exam.

Harmony: Wow.

Willow: Mm.

Harmony: You’re graduating nursing school. I just [Laughs] — I am unbelievably proud of you.

Willow: Well, back at you.

Harmony: What? You’re proud of me?

Willow: [ Chuckles ] Were you not listening before? Yes, you’ve made mistakes, but you’ve taken responsibility and you’ve put all that behind you.

Harmony: I hope you know that… it doesn’t mean I’m not gonna make more mistakes. Willow, you know I have weaknesses, just like everybody else.

Willow: That’s exactly my point. [ Chuckles ] You own up to those weaknesses. You admit who you were and what you did and who you hope to be. It’s honest… and it’s very brave. [ Scoffs ] So am I proud of you? [ Thumps table ] Damn straight I am.

Harmony: [ Sighs ]

Curtis: I think what really matters is that we’re doing best by Trina.

Portia: That’s what I’m trying to do. But you can’t even defend the fact that she’s not even trying to help. Uh. [ Sighs ] [ Voice breaking ] I need to take a minute. Excuse me.

[ Door opens ]

[ Telephone rings in distance ]

Curtis: [ Breathes deeply ]

[ Door closes ]

Curtis: Portia’s under a lot of pressure. [ Sighs ]

Jordan: I know. And I’d be doing the same thing if I were in her shoes. She’s worried about her kid — I get that.

Curtis: Thanks for understanding and for not losing your cool. You know, it’s, uh, I’m sure it’s frustrating, you know, for Portia, not knowing the whole truth.

Jordan: That I am as committed to finding the real perpetrator as you are? I’m doing everything I can to look deeper.

Curtis: I know you are, and, uh, I appreciate it, along with the fact that you called me when they brought Trina in for questioning.

Jordan: [ Sighs ]

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Curtis: Oh, um, Jordan. About, uh, what Portia said about your feelings…

Jordan: work.

[ Ringing continues ]

Curtis: Do what you gotta do.

Jordan: Commissioner Ashford.

Spencer: I’m still your friend, Trina.

Josslyn: Oh, my god.

Spencer: What?

Josslyn: Yeah, Spencer, you’re a really good friend. You know, you’re protecting a criminal who violated us and framed her for it.

Spencer: You know what, Joss? Someday, you’re gonna be embarrassed that you assumed the worst of me.

Josslyn: Oh. Is that a threat? No, I just —

Britt: Ah, ah. Spencer, I think we should leave now. Let’s go.

Spencer: I hope that we can talk soon.

Trina; Thanks, but I think I’ve heard enough from you. [ Sighs ]

Anna: It was always my intention to hold Peter accountable so that his victims could have their day in court, have some kind of closure. But in the end…he’d just given in to his worst impulses, and he was almost a mirror image of Faison. I just — I couldn’t allow that to continue.

Valentin: I don’t blame you. He couldn’t be redeemed, Anna. There was nothing left to do. Just put him in the ground and keep the world safe from him. And Felicia did that.

But it was my call not to summon help. I chose not to. I let Peter die.

Spencer: Now that we’re seated [ Sighs ] Why are we here?

Britt: Your antics cost me the coffee I wanted at Kelly’s. You can order whatever you want — it’s on me.

Spencer: You don’t have to buy me dinner.

Britt: Oh, don’t you worry. You’ll be singing for your supper. So, uh, what’s happening with your friends?

Spencer: Pretty sure they’d say “former friends” now.

Britt: No way. You, Cameron, and Joss have been getting into mischief together since you were adorable little twerps.

Spencer: We grew up.

Britt: Grew up and started threatening each other?

Spencer: That wasn’t a threat. Joss misunderstood.

Britt: Well, maybe you should make her understand.

Spencer: What I was trying to say was she’d be sorry if she accused me of not caring about what happened to them.

Britt: Are you talking about the sex tape? Hey, I don’t — I don’t understand. Why would they think you wouldn’t care?

Spencer: Because I’m still with Esme. Or not not with her, at least. And they think that she’s responsible for the sex tape.

Britt: Okay. What do you think?

Drew: Honestly, I don’t know what my plans are. I mean, there’s Aurora, obviously. I just haven’t — just haven’t really found my sweet spot yet.

Michael: Well, I’d love to bounce some ideas around with you…

Drew: Mm!

Michael: …If you’re game.

Drew: Always.

Michael: Yeah? Okay. ‘Cause I have some thoughts on how to grow digital.

Drew: See, just the way you’re even talking about it, like, that passion, I — I just wish I had as much passion for the company as you do.

Michael: Well, you know, if not Aurora, there’s always ELQ.

Drew: [ Sighs ] Ah. Uh, that’s dicey territory there.

Michael Well, yeah, with our family, what isn’t?

Drew: [ Chuckles ]

[ Water bottle lid opens ]

[ Metal clinks ]

Michael: Now, have you given any thought into getting your shares back from Valentin?

Drew: [ Breathes sharply ]

Valentin: Tell me you’re not feeling guilty.

Anna: I did. Yeah, I mean, I denied medical attention to my own nephew. I waited, and I watched him take his last breath.

Valentin: Could he have even been saved?

Anna: We’ll never know, will we? And I carried that burden. But I don’t know. I mean, now I feel… at peace [Sighs] A little bit.

Valentin: Good.

Anna: I-I realized that we can talk all we want about the responsibility that we may bear in terms to who Peter became. But the fact is, he was an adult, and — and he forged his own path, and at every opportunity, he chose the wrong one.

Valentin: You’re a hero.

Anna: No. God, no. No, no. No. I would not say that.

Valentin: I’m saying it.

Anna: Would you have done the same thing?

Valentin: Yes, I absolutely would have done the same thing. And that last breath that Peter took — I would have enjoyed watching him take it.

Willow: Well, I think I’ll try and grab a quick hug from Michael before heading to the hospital.

Harmony: Ah, young love.

Willow: Oh, not so young anymore.

Harmony: Oh, my goodness. Bite your tongue.

Willow: [ Chuckles ]

Harmony: [ Chuckles ]

Willow: You’re sure you’re okay?

Harmony: Yeah, yeah. Yes, I just — you know, I got to get used to being alone, on my own.

Willow: Uh, what does that mean?

Harmony: Just that I will be moving out of Alexis’s eventually.

Willow: Well [Scoffs] You may be living alone, but you have us, mom. Which reminds me, I’ve been meaning to ask you if you have some free time soon to take Wiley to the aquarium.

Harmony: Really?

Willow: Yes. He’s on this huge aquatic animal kick. I know he’d love it. [ Chuckles ]

Harmony: Not more than I would, so sign me up.

Willow: Okay, great. I really want Wiley to spend more time with his grandmothers, the ones who care and deserve to be in his life — that’s you, by the way. [ Chuckles ]

Harmony: I can’t wait.

Willow: Okay, well, then I’ll text you, and we’ll set it up.

Harmony: Yeah.

Willow: Okay.

Harmony: [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ]

Marshall: So, has my grandson picked a specialty yet?

TJ: Well, I’m still weighing my options. But I gotta say — assisting in surgeries has been really exciting.

Marshall: Ooh, what about it gets your heart pumping?

TJ: Yeah, um, I think it’s the constant mastery that’s required. Like, when I first picked up an arthroscope, it felt so foreign, and now it’s like an extension of my arm.

Marshall: I feel that way every time I pick up my clarinet. Mm-hmm.

TJ: Yes! The surgical team…

Marshall: right!

TJ: …Is like a band, you got your nurses…

Marshall: [ Scatting ]

TJ: …Your anesthesiologists…

Marshall: [ Scatting ]

TJ: …Your surgical techs.

Marshall: [ Scatting ]

TJ: Everyone lending their individual talent to create a symphony, yes.

Marshall: You know, I don’t think I’ve ever heard playing music compared to saving lives. But, hey, man, passion is passion. And I’m so happy that you found yours. Yeah. [ Laughs ]

Rory: So after getting a closer look, you confirmed it was a body in the water and then called 911.

Alexis: Correct.

[ Police radio chatter ]

[ Air horn blows in distance ]

Jordan: I’m sorry you had to see this. Yeah. If you’re done with your statement, you’re free to go.

Alexis: Thank you. I-I would really appreciate it.

[ Police radio chatter ]

Rory: Commissioner? License I.D.s the deceased as a Brendan Byrne.

[ Police radio chatter ]

Alexis: Did you say Brendan Byrne?

Jordan: You know him?

Alexis: I do.

Anna: I did what I did. I don’t think I regret it [Sighs] But I’m not a hero.

Valentin: Maybe none of us are. Well. In the end, you weighed your misgivings over letting Peter die… …against your desire to end the torment of others. And you sacrificed your own peace of mind to do it. I think that’s pretty heroic. You’re not convinced?

Anna: Would you be if it were you?

Valentin: Yes. I don’t have a problem making impossible decisions.

Anna: If Jennifer was framed, our next move is to find this man that she brought to her room. I think once we find Francois Olivier, then we should get the truth.

Valentin: I would never judge you for that. And I hope you would never judge me.

Spencer: Now [Sighs] The evidence points to Trina.

Britt: That doesn’t answer my question. Do you believe Trina filmed and released that video?

Spencer: She swears she didn’t. But so does Esme. So it doesn’t really matter who I believe, because either way, someone ends up hurt.

Britt: Yeah, that’s a really crappy position to be in.

Spencer: Have you ever been there? Where doing the right thing could make people hate you?

Britt: More than once. This is going to shock you, but interpersonal relationships are not my strong suit. Once you’re known for less-than-honorable intentions, it’s hard for people to recognize your good ones.

Spencer: Hard, but not impossible, right? There is still hope for me and my friends?

Cameron: I don’t want to come off like I’m team Spencer —

Josslyn: Oh, I hate this already.

Cameron: But he’s got to be in a weird position.

Josslyn: In what universe?

Cameron: Well, it must be a total mind trip to be told that your longtime girlfriend is actually a nightmare.

Josslyn: Okay, well, I have zero patience for any of this angst that Spencer might be feeling, okay? There’s a right and a wrong here, and it is so glaringly obvious. But Spencer is just so far under Esme’s spell, he refuses to see it.

Trina: I need a minute.

Josslyn: Hey. Do you want me to come with you?

Trina: No, I’m — I’m good.

Josslyn: Sticking up for Spencer? I mean, really?

Cameron: I’m not sticking up for him.

Josslyn: Well, it sure sounded like it.

Cameron: But I-I was just trying to put things in perspective.

Josslyn: There is no perspective.

Cameron: I heard you. There’s a right, and there’s a wrong —

Josslyn: But you don’t agree?

Cameron: I-I do, but there’s just so —

Josslyn: Well, Cam, you’re letting Spencer in here, hanging out. I mean, I ask him to leave, and you say nothing. Whose side are you on?

[ Telephone ringing in distance ]

Portia: [ Chuckles ] I thought you would have left by now.

Curtis: Is that what you want?

Portia: No. But I wouldn’t have blamed you if you did.

Curtis: I had to see that you were okay.

Portia: [ Sighs ] I am now. Curtis, I’m so sorry.

Curtis: About what?

Portia: [ Sighs ] I don’t know. Let me start from the top, um — uh, causing a scene, going off on Jordan when she didn’t deserve it, and somehow I was able to make Trina’s arrest about the three of us…

Curtis: Portia, there’s no apologies necessary, okay? You were terrified for your daughter. Nobody expects you to hold that in. Maybe not, but I could have done a whole lot better job of that. I mean, good God. [ Voice breaking ] I accused Jordan of punishing Trina because I happen to be with you now. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. [ Chuckling ] I’m overthinking everything.

Curtis: I mean, there’s nothing wrong with you, okay? [ Sighs ] You, uh — you were frustrated. I get it.

Portia: And do you think that Jordan will get it, too?

Jordan: How did you know Mr. Byrne?

Alexis: He’s ne– was the brother of my ex, Neil Byrne.

Jordan: Local?

Alexis: Uh, he’s not from Port Charles.

Jordan: When was the last time you saw him?

Alexis: Neil’s funeral. I-it was a while — a while back, a-and then just the other day.

Jordan: So you spent time with Mr. Byrne since he came to Port Charles?

Alexis: No, I wouldn’t consider it “spending time.” He stopped by my office. He needed help.

Jordan: What kind of help?

Alexis: Financial. He — he wasn’t specific. I think maybe he was looking for a job.

Jordan: Why you? And why so long after his brother had died?

Alexis: That’s what I would like to know, especially after the way he treated me at the funeral.

Jordan: How was that? I take it you and the deceased were not on the best of terms.

Drew: Oh, you’re right, you’re right. I gotta stop dragging my feet, and I have to make a decision about those shares.

Marshall: Drew. How’s it going?

Drew: Marshall. How are you?

Marshall: All right. I’m, uh… good. …I’m ready to pursue that job you offered.

Drew: Oh, uh, I-I’m — I’m sorry. The — the board already green-lit another candidate.

Marshall: [ Chuckling ] We just spoke about it a few days ago. You said you were still interviewing.

Drew: Yeah, we were until the right fit came along. I’m — I’m really sorry, but if another opportunity arises, I’ll be sure to let you know.

Marshall: [ Scoffs ] Will you?

Drew: I beg your pardon?

Marshall: It’s hard not to wonder if you ever had any intention of giving me a job.

Michael: Uh, look, I’m gonna go hit the showers, give you guys some time to talk.

Drew: No, that’s — that’s really not necessary. Mr. Ashford, with all due respect, you didn’t follow up.

Marshall: Yeah, yeah. So you had to move on.

Drew: That’s right.

Marshall: More like you and my son — my son — you got all you needed from that fake interview.

TJ: Wait. What does uncle Curtis have to do with this?

Marshall: You want me to tell him or should I? [ Breathes deeply ] Curtis and this man, they came up with a fake job opportunity in order to get me to agree to a background check.

TJ: No.

Marshall: Yes.

TJ: What?

Marshall: I’m just curious — who pitched the idea first? Was it you, Mr. Cain? Must be nice having all that time and money on your hands.

Michael: No, no, that’s unnecessary.

Drew: N– no. Let Mr. Ashford say his piece.

Marshall: Not all of us are born with silver spoons in our mouths, Mr. Cain. Some of us have to work to survive. But then again, you — you wouldn’t understand that, would you? Would you?

TJ: Grandpa.

Michael: Well, he’s [Scoffs] — He’s got you all wrong.

Drew: Ah. Actually, I think he summed up my situation perfectly.

Curtis: Jordan understands the pressure you’re under. She doesn’t hold it against you.

Portia: I still need to apologize. And I will. I will. But I don’t think that I was entirely wrong, Curtis.

Curtis: About?

Portia: I know that you left your marriage behind. But can you honestly say that Jordan has, too?

Curtis: I don’t know, but, um, I do know that, uh, Jordan won’t let her feelings impact the case. With Jordan, work comes first. Work always comes first. Our divorce is a testament to that.

Portia: I saw the look you two gave each other when I said she wasn’t impartial.

Curtis: Jordan believes that there’s, uh, more to Trina’s case than meets the eye.

Portia: Well, Trina feels the same way, too. I’m glad that somebody’s finally confirming it. Good. Uh, okay. So what’s Jordan doing to dig deeper?

Curtis: She’s doing what she can, but you know how it goes.

Portia: She can’t give you any details. Yeah, of course. [ Stammers ] You know what? I don’t even care. It’s at least comforting to know that Jordan doesn’t believe that this case should be closed.

Curtis: Baby… not by a long shot.

Cameron: Look, I’m on the side of truth, okay?

Josslyn: What does that even mean?

Trina: Please tell me we’re not still talking about Spencer.

Cameron: Well, I’m ready to move on.

Josslyn: Well, I’m not. Please promise me you’re not gonna put him back on the work schedule here.

Trina: Don’t block him because of me.

Josslyn: He deserves to be blocked, Trina.

Cameron: Okay. And what if he needs the money?

Josslyn: He doesn’t.

Trina: Okay, let’s just back this up.

Josslyn: He has no right to work here, Cam.

Cameron: Well, Joss, it’s my call. And if he wants his job back, I’m not gonna get in his way.

Josslyn: And if that stands in our way?

Cameron: Well, then maybe you guys have to find another place to hang out.

Anna: You understand that there’s no judgment between us, right? There never is. And oddly…I trust you.

Valentin: And I trust you.

Anna: Your father, not so much. Have you seen Victor lately?

Valentin: No. Why?

Anna: Doesn’t matter. It’s nice that you’re back.

Valentin: Mm.

Anna: I missed my compatriot while you were away.

Valentin: Is that what I’ve been reduced to? I’m a compatriot?

Anna: Do you want to be something more? Shall I open this bottle of wine?

Valentin: Mm-hmm. I would like nothing more, but I have to take a rain check.

Anna: Big plans, huh?

Valentin: Something like that, yeah.

Anna: Well, I can’t promise that this will be here when next you come.

Valentin: I wish I had been there with you when Peter died. And I-I-I understand completely that you are capable of taking care of it on your own.

Anna: I think that it had to be me — doing it without you.

Valentin: I get that. And we have been together all along. I just wish we could have seen it through together.

Anna: [ Sighs ] I wish that, too. I think being alone was what I needed — it certainly wasn’t what I wanted.

Valentin: You had Dante and Drew and F-Felicia.

Anna: Yeah. They were incredible. But in that moment when I looked down and I saw that Peter was gone, all I wanted was to look up and see you.

Harmony: [ Clears throat ] Hey, sorry. Can you remind me where the restroom is?

Waiter: [ Clicks tongue ] Yeah. It’s the second door on the right. Of course, duh. [ Chuckles ] It’s like I’ve never been here before. Thanks.

Alexis: If it’s all right with you, I’d — I’d like to go.

Jordan: Just one more question. You mentioned that Mr. Byrne had fallen on hard times.

Alexis: Yes.

Jordan: Did he strike you as desperate enough to end his life?

Alexis: Uh… do you think it’s suicide?

Jordan: I don’t know. I’ll need to wait for the medical examiner’s report, but I’m not ruling anything out.

Alexis: All right. Thank you.

Jordan: I thought you were heading to Spoon Island.

Alexis: I’m not really in the mood to visit anyone right now.

Jordan: Because you knew Mr. Byrne? Or because the circumstances surrounding his death are suspect?

Alexis: Jordan, if you have any more questions, you need to talk to my attorney. You know her — Diane Miller.

Jordan: I thought you might say that.

Britt: The only thing you have control over is you. Trust your gut — no matter the fallout.

Spencer: Thank you.

Britt: That’s pretty generic advice, but if it helped, I’m happy.

Spencer: You always help.

Britt: Moi? [ Laughs ]

Spencer: I mean it. Since I was a little kid, you’ve always been there for me, despite my [Breathes deeply]

Britt: Many screw-ups. Many, many screw-ups.

Spencer: Having you in my life has made a world of difference.

Britt: Spencer. Listen, whatever mistakes you’ve made, you are worthy of love — remember that.

Spencer: Only if you do, too. Thanks for dinner.

Britt: Anytime. [ Sighs ] I don’t care what you say, Mom. His cat is cute.

Josslyn: I cannot believe you’re not backing me on this. After what Spencer did to Trina…

Cameron: look, I know what Spencer did to Trina. It was all kinds of wrong, but we’re talking about a job here, not matching BFF tattoos.

Josslyn: You’re doing him a favor, Cam, and I cannot understand why.

Trina: Joss, it’s okay.

Josslyn: No, it’s not. It’s not okay. [ Scoffs ] Guys always forgive each other.

Cameron: Well, that’s ridiculous.

Josslyn: But true.

Cameron: No, so, what, I’m just lumped in with all the guys now?

Josslyn: Well, it’s news to me, too, Cam, but apparently my boyfriend is a part of some almighty boys’ club. I could never be civil with Spencer after he stood by that witch —

Cameron: You know, you could if you actually knew what he was up to!

Portia: You know, I never even asked you why you came here to the hospital.

Curtis: I’m more concerned about you.

Portia: [ Chuckles ] Unh-unh. I’m not buying that. Something’s wrong. Is it Aunt Stella or…?

Curtis: No, she’s fine, um, but you are on the right track. Has to do with family.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Curtis: Do you mind if I take this?

Portia: No, no, no. Go ahead. Take it.

Curtis: Hey, Drew. What’s up?

Drew: Marshall was just here.

Curtis: What happened?

Drew: He knows that the job at Aurora was a setup. I tried to convince him otherwise, but he was too quick.

Curtis: How’d he take it?

Drew: Not well. I’m sorry.

Marshall: Don’t be. [ Breathes deeply ] My father’s whole life is built on lies. I suppose at some point he should realize that one day they would catch up to him.

Alexis: Hi. I’ll have a cranberry and soda, please.

Harmony: No. No cranberry and soda. [ Chuckles ] She’ll have what I’m having.

Jordan: Rory, come here. What do you see?

Rory: Uh, red markings near the victim’s trachea.

Jordan: There’s blood pooling under the skin. Was this injury sustained pre- or post-mortem?

Rory: No time to bruise, so it probably occurred in the hours before he was in the water.

Jordan: Very good. And what can you tell me about the shape of the marks?

Rory: Consistent with fingers?

Jordan: Mm.

Rory: So he was grabbed, but when?

Jordan: That’s the million-dollar question. And the answer may tell us if it was suicide, an accident, or straight up murder.

Anna: Were you going on lots of walks while you were recuperating?

Valentin: What? Why would you ask that?

Anna: Because you’ve got a tan.

Valentin: Yeah, walks. It’s amazing what getting your legs moving will do for your mind and your spirit. I’ll see you again soon. Save me a glass of the Bordeaux.

Anna: Well. Bye. [ Sighs ]

[ Knock on door ]

Anna: Did you forget something?

On the next “General Hospital” —

Laura: You are suspect number one.

Esme (to Nikolas): You’ve changed your mind about me.

Cameron (to Spencer): If you won’t tell them, then I will.

Alexis (to Harmony): Who are you terrified of?

Ava (to Nina): What is this big new you texted me about?

Carly (to Sam): Was there anything that could help Trina?

Sonny: Case closed. That’s it.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Brady: Hey.

Chloe: Hey.

Brady: Here to celebrate?

Chloe: Celebrate what?

Brady: Don’t be modest. Slapping leo with that prenup. That was brilliant.

Chloe: I thought so too.

Brady: So how did he take it? Has he left town already?

Chloe: Nope.

Brady: What happened? I know that money-grubbing little creep didn’t sign the thing.

Chloe: That’s exactly what that money-grubbing little creep did.

Leo: How can I be upset? I would do anything for you, craig. Don’t you know that by now?

Craig: Yes, of course I do. I just felt like I put you on the spot insisting you sign that prenup.

Leo: You didn’t insist. You asked, very politely. And I hope you know that the reason I hesitated wasn’t about the money. I felt ambushed. Yet another attempt by your daughter and the haters to put me on a spit. If I hadn’t signed it, you could’ve ruined our wedding day, maybe even our whole marriage, because chloe and everyone else would’ve continued to think that I’m a gold digger. So I caved. I don’t like caving. I’m a very proud man.

Craig: And a selfless one. Just when I think I could’ve love you more. Thanks, babe. I promise you won’t regret it.

Jack: You drove all the way to o’hare to pick me up. You don’t have to carry my luggage.

Xander: You said you’d be my best man, jack. I owe you.

Jennifer: Xander! Gram’s garden looks absolutely stunning, and jack tells me it’s because of you.

Xander: Oh, I said I’d look after it.

Jennifer: I am just so glad to be home. Although I know that we missed so much while we were away.

Xander: Including some very sad news.

Jack: But we’re here to celebrate the good news.

Jennifer: Yes, and the fact that abigail’s home safe.

Jack: And gwen’s matron of honor. Let’s hope that this means that the two of them are finally patching things up.

Gwen: Abigail? What are you doing here?

Abigail: I heard ava vitali had been arrested, and I wanted to talk to her.

Gwen: Why? What could you and ava possibly have to talk about?

Ava: The person who attacked you was your sister, gwen.

Abigail: A lot.

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

[Soft orchestration]

Abigail: I was hoping that ava might finally give me the name of the person who knocked me out at the air strip and helped get me kidnapped. Told her she might be able to use the information to leverage a plea deal.

Gwen: I see. And did she tell you what you wanted to know?

Abigail: Sadly, no. So what are you doing here at the police station on your wedding day?

Jack: So where are my two daughters?

Xander: Actually, they’re taking care of some wedding business, but they should be back here soon.

Jennifer: Wait, you do know you are not supposed to see your bride on wedding day.

Jack: Right?

Xander: Yeah. Sarah insisted on that, and we all know what happened to sarah, don’t we?

Jennifer: I talked to aunt maggie. It’s really terrible.

Xander: I just feel like if I’d been there that night with her, I could’ve protected her. And, well, anyway, I’m not very fond of that superstition.

Jack: It’s understandable.

Xander: And anyway, gwen and I woke up this morning and decided today was the day. We feel like we’ve already had enough bad luck and that finding each other is the beginning of a better life.

Jack: I really hope you do.

Xander: So shall I fill you all in on the details?

Jennifer: Yes! Please!

Jack: Yes! Of course, please! That would be helpful, yes.

Xander: Well, we’re having the ceremony tonight, in the square. And you’re getting two weddings for the price of one.

Jack: Two?

Jennifer: What? That’s exactly what we did. Who’s the other bride and groom?

Xander: Gwen is the only bride. A friend of hers is marrying his boyfriend. There’s going to be three grooms.

Craig: Pretty quiet on the way over here. It’s not like you.

Leo: Just thinking.

Craig: About the prenup.

Leo: You were right. Signing it was the only way to get chloe and sonny and everyone else to believe what you and I already know. I’m not marrying you for your money. I’m marrying you because you’re the love of my life.

Brady: Okay, this states if leo and craig break up, leo gets nothing. You sure leo read this?

Chloe: He did. Every word.

Brady: And he signed it?

Chloe: You know why? Because my father convinced him to.

Brady: Okay, well, at least you have the satisfaction of knowing leo can’t screw your dad over. I mean, justin writes up a good prenup. This thing has no loopholes in it.

Chloe: Yeah, well, brady, is it possible that we were wrong? Is it possible that leo stark wasn’t after my father for his money? What if he’s actually marrying him for love?

Craig: Hey. You and I are getting married in a few hours. I think maybe we should try and get ready.

Leo: True. My toilette does take a while.

Craig: Yes, but there’s only one bathroom. We could shower together, maybe save some time.

Leo: I don’t think that would be much of a time save. Besides, there is something I want to talk to you about before the wedding.

Craig: Okay? You look serious. What is it?

Leo: I have a confession to make. It’s my 4:05, the-show-must-go-on,

Gwen: I came here because I was looking for you.

Abigail: Oh, well, when I came in, you seemed surprised to see me. And what’s with the hat? It’s april.

Gwen: Oh, right, yeah. Just trying to avoid frizzy hair on my wedding day, you know? I came here because I couldn’t find you, and so I phoned “the spectator” office, and they said you were here, covering a story.

Abigail: I see.

Gwen: And the reason I looked surprised is because I didn’t know that ava had been arrested.

Abigail: She has, yeah. She’s been charged with planting the evidence against rafe.

Gwen: And these charges– they don’t have anything to do with what happened to you?

Abigail: No, no, and like I said, you know, she just– she won’t give me the name of the person who helped her do it.

Gwen: I bet it was that pilot. I think perhaps she’s afraid of him.

Abigail: Maybe. Yeah.

Gwen: Right, well, if you’re finished here, shall we go? Because xander’s gone to pick up jack, dad, at the airport. And, well, I know he would love to see you. I think he’d be rather pleased to know that you’re standing up with me. Are you ready?

Abigail: Yes. My phone is vibrating. Hang on. Let’s see. Oh, it’s the office. They’re wanting an update. Do you know what? Can I just–I’ll just catch you at the house, and I’m not gonna be long, I promise.

Gwen: Yeah, of course.

Abigail: Okay. Bye.

Gwen: Bye.

Abigail: Hi, yeah, I’m just down here at the squad room. I just got done interviewing ava vitali.

[Uneasy music]

Ava: So, did you convince the da to give me a deal? Because that is the only way I’m giving you the dirt on your sister.

Craig: Okay, whatever it is, whatever you did, just tell me, all right? Tell me. You’re scaring me. What is it?

Leo: It’s about the guy that gwen is gonna marry.

Craig: What about him?

Leo: His name is xander cook, and I sort of kind of–

Craig: Sort of kind of what?

Leo: Tried to get him to go to bed with me.

Jac: Craig wesley is getting married?

Jennifer: He left nancy…

Both: For a man?

Xander: Yeah. A guy named leo stark.

Jennifer: What? The same leo stark that caused so many problems for will and sonny?

Xander: Yeah, that’s the guy.

Jack: And now craig is getting married to him?

Xander: Yeah, I guess craig had been in the closet his whole life, and now he’s making up for lost time.

Jennifer: No, that’s just poor judgment.

Xander: I wouldn’t know. I’ve never even laid eyes on craig.

Jack: And now you’re going to have a double wedding with the man?

Xander: Because leo and gwen–it turns out, they’re old friends.

Jack: Really?

Jennifer: I mean, I was never crazy about craig, the way he stole my brother’s job, but I mean, nancy worshiped him. She must be devastated by all this.

Nancy: I don’t know why I let you talk me into this, mommy. Look, it is one thing to like a guy’s picture, but it’s another thing to meet him face to face. Okay, I’ll try to believe that. Okay, I will believe that. And, yes, I will repeat after you. I am a great catch. I am charming. I am adorable. And the man I’m about to meet is damn lucky that he swiped right on me. Okay, I’m going in right now to face the… music.

[Lilting jazz music]

Clyde: Nancy?

[Soft music]

Clyde: Hi, I’m clyde. Clyde weston.

Nancy: I’m nancy, nancy miller.

Clyde: Are you sure?

Nancy: I’m sorry. I’m just a little nervous.

Clyde: Well, some of us hide it better than others. Perhaps we should sit down before our waitress runs us over with a big bowl of chowder?

Nancy: Oh, we can’t have that.

Clyde: Right.

Nancy: Oh, thank you.

Clyde: You’re welcome. Well… your picture on the website.

Nancy: What about it?

Clyde: You’re much prettier in person.

Nancy: Thank you. Your picture of you was very handsome, and your picture didn’t lie.

Clyde: Well, thank you. Guess we’re off to a pretty good start here, aren’t we?

Nancy: Oh, I hope so. This is the first time I’ve been on a date in a really long time.

Clyde: Yeah, your profile said that you’re recently back on the market. So am I.

Nancy: I’m divorced. And what’s your excuse?

Clyde: I just got out of prison.

Brady: Look, chloe, I don’t mean to sound cynical, especially for your sake or your dad’s, but the idea that leo is actually in love with craig– I don’t buy it. I don’t think a guy like leo changes his spots.

Chloe: Well, I’m cynical about leo as well, but if he is the gold digger that we think he is, then why did he sign that prenup? Unless he, what, plans on staying married to my father long enough to spend all of his money?

Brady: That’s a possibility. I suppose.

Chloe: I don’t know. Bottom line is, we thought of everything, and nothing worked. It always seems like leo’s one step ahead. I don’t know. I guess leo stark’s going to be my step-daddy, and there’s nothing I can do about it.

Brady: Actually…

Chloe: Actually what?

Brady: Maybe there is.

Craig: So you’re saying you cheated on me?

Leo: Oh, god, no. No, I would never do that. Didn’t I make that clear the night you caught me in bed with chad?

Craig: Yeah, yeah, but you just said that there’s–

Leo: This was years ago, long before I met you. I will admit, I was a bit of a player back then.

Craig: Mm-hmm. What happened?

Leo: Nothing. Xander’s straight.

Craig: But you wanted something to happen?

Leo: Craig. Trust me, when you meet this tall, dark, and handsome scotsman, you will understand why I wanted to get under his kilt.

Jennifer: Are the two of you going to be wearing kilts tonight?

Xander: Oh, I decided to spare jack that. No, I got tuxes for us.

Jack: Oh, my bony kneecaps thank you.

Xander: Actually, speaking of, we should get going. We need to try the monkey suits on.

Jack: Right!

Gwen: My goodness, you’re here! Hi. You’re here. I’m so happy you’re gonna be here for the wedding. Oh.

Jack: Oh, I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.

Gwen: Oh. You know, actually, I was wondering. Would you maybe walk down the aisle and give me away?

Jack: Give you away? I feel like I just got you. Yes, I would be honored to give you away, yes.

Gwen: Oh.

Xander: And when it’s all over, you’ll be my father-in-law. Like the sound of that.

Jack: So do I.

Gwen: Everything is so perfect.

Abigail: Guess who showed up when I was out in the squad room. Gwen.

Ava: How’d that go?

Abigail: Well, I didn’t give you up, if that’s what you’re asking. I told her you wouldn’t tell me who helped you kidnap me.

Ava: Well, that was a good move, because she was probably on her way in here to talk me into keeping my mouth shut.

Abigail: Well, she didn’t expect to see me, I know that.

Ava: So what kept you from telling gwen that I ratted her out?

Abigail: I’m not tipping her off until you give me the whole story.

Ava: That depends on what the da said.

Abigail: She’s interested. But she needs more information.

Ava: Okay. Tell her to come talk to me.

Abigail: I have a better idea. You tell me the story, and I go back to her.

Ava: I already told you gwen knocked you out. What more do you need?

Abigail: You made it very clear that gwen has done worse than that, a lot worse. I want the details.

Ava: Are you certain that the da’s willing to make a deal?

Abigail: Absolutely.

Ava: Great. Then you get me that deal, and then I will give you whatever you need to bury your sister.

Jack: It’s good to see the two of you looking so happy.

Gwen: Yeah, we are, aren’t we?

Xander: Definitely. But we should go get those tuxes fitted. I don’t want to be late for my own wedding.

Jack: Right, right, right.

Gwen: So, you know the next time that I see you–

Xander: I’ll be making an honest woman of you.

Gwen: Yeah, we’ll see about that.

Jennifer: Have fun!

[Soft music]

Gwen: Hey. I’m very happy that you’re gonna be at the wedding tonight.

Jennifer: Yes, I am too. I’m very happy that we have some time alone. There’s something I wanna say to you.

You never know

what opportunities

Clyde: Me doing time, being an ex-con, is that a deal breaker for you? Because if it is, I certainly understand. I see.

Nancy: No, no. You just took me aback, clyde. It’s not a deal breaker.

Clyde: Are you sure?

Nancy: You know, for more than 30 years, I thought that I was married to the perfect man. But he cheated on me. I knew that there was something wrong between us, but, well, I kept asking him, and he kept lying to me. I just met you, and you have been honest and open with me. And I respect that.

Brady: So do you remember yesterday, when we overheard leo talking to someone on the phone named jackie?

Chloe: Yeah.

Brady: Well, sonny seems to think that might be jackie cox. Now, this is a crony of leo’S. Sonny’s pretty sure that the two of them were in cahoots during that peacock scam last year. So if leo is actually trying to scam your father, this jackie cox might know about it, even be in on it.

Chloe: How do we find this jackie?

Brady: Sonny and chad are actually on their way to new york right now to try to track her down.

Chloe: Well, my dad’s wedding is in a couple hours, and this seems like a long shot.

Brady: Chloe, it may be the only shot we have.

Leo: I don’t want there to be any secrets between us. So I thought I’d better tell you you’d be sharing your wedding with a man I lusted after. You mad?

Craig: No. I appreciate you being honest with me.

Leo: Oh, craig. Nobody has ever cared for me the way you do.

Craig: It’s because you make me happy. I love you.

Leo: Maybe we do have time for a shower.

[Knocking at door]

Craig: Oh, boy.

Leo: Oh, well, if it isn’t the groom-to-be.

Xander: Hi, leo. Can we come in?

Leo: Why not?

Craig: Jack deveraux.

Jack: Hello, craig.

Leo: You two know each other?

Craig: Mm-hmm. Yes, we do. What are you doing here?

Xander: Well, jack’s gwen’s dad. He’s also my best man.

Craig: Oh. Well, I didn’t know that.

Jack: I thought as much. That’s why I suggested to xander that the four of us should have a friendly drink together before the wedding.

Xander: It’s a single malt, almost as old as I am. Jack’s treat.

Craig: So you’re xander cook. Leo and i were just talking about you.

Gwen: Look, before you say anything, I know I’m not your favorite person, and for good reason. When I came to salem, I was terribly unhappy, and I took that all out on you and your family, and especially abigail.

Jennifer: Yes, you did.

Gwen: So I wanted to say is that abigail has managed to forgive me. It means the absolute world to me. Because with her forgiveness and xander’s love, I’ve stopped becoming that person who did all those horrible things. So, really, what I’m trying to say for myself here is, I was very angry and spiteful because I just thought that nobody was ever gonna love me. But now I have jack, and I have xander. And for the first time, I feel like I have a family of my own. Sorry, so what is it that you wanted to say?

Jennifer: You know, you’ve lived in this house. You see pictures of family everywhere. So you probably figured that family means everything to me, gwen. And everything to my husband. So what I wanted to say is, jack is really proud of the person that you’ve become, and so am I.

Gwen: Oh.

Jennifer: [Laughs]

[Tender music]

It’s okay.

My asthma felt anything but normal.

Gwen: Thank you, jennifer.

Abigail: Mom.

Jennifer: Whoa!

Abigail: I didn’t know you were coming.

Jennifer: Well, I had to see you for myself. Oh, my goodness. Now I know that you’re really okay.

Abigail: Yeah, I’m fine. I’m happy you’re here.

Jennifer: And you’re going to be gwen’s matron of honor?

Abigail: Yes, I am.

Gwen: I know, I can’t believe it. I mean, I’m actually getting married here in a little while. I need to get dressed. I need to get ready.

Jennifer: Yes.

Abigail: Do you need help getting dressed?

Gwen: No, I don’t think so, but if I do, I will let you know. Thank you.

[Moody music]

Jennifer: Hey. What’s wrong?

Abigail: I just learned some very interesting intel about our bride-to-be.

Chloe: So, what did you say to chad and sonny?

Brady: Told them that leo signed the prenup and that now it’s basically all up to them.

Chloe: Well, did they have any luck finding this jackie person?

Brady: Hopefully, we’ll find out soon.

Chloe: Well, not soon enough to stop this wedding. Ugh. Ugh.

Brady: What?

Chloe: It means I have to go get ready for it. Feel like I’m going to a funeral. I should just get dressed in all black since I am ghoul girl.

Brady: Hey, you do realize that you’re not going to be doing this alone.

Chloe: What, are you ready to go public?

Brady: Yeah. Like I told you back in the good old days, I want the whole world to know that you are my girl.

[Tender music]

Xander: Oh, yes. Should we have another?

Leo: Might want to slow down there, big guy. Don’t want to disappoint the missus tonight.

Xander: I appreciate your concern, leo, but that’s not going to be a problem.

Leo: Lucky her.

Craig: So, jack, you’ve heard about me and nancy, yes?

Jack: Yeah, yeah. Yeah. How’s she holding up?

Craig: Well, she’s in a great deal of pain, and I feel terrible about that, but I just couldn’t lie to her anymore. Let alone myself. Anyway, she’s an amazing lady, and I pray that she finds the right man who she can spend this next chapter of her life with.

Clyde: Hard enough to have your husband tell you he’s leaving you, but for another man?

Nancy: The same man that he is marrying today. He wants us to be civilized, and he invited me to the wedding.

Clyde: Guy’s got some nerve.

Nancy: I might go. That’s kind of one of the reasons I got on the dating site. I just didn’t like the thought of showing up there alone.

Clyde: Nancy, are you asking me to escort you to that wedding?

It’s started. Somewhere between a cuddle

Nancy: Do you feel used?

Clyde: No. To be honest, the day I walked out of prison, the only clothes I had were the clothes that I walked in with, but I’m sure I could scare something up.

Nancy: Really?

Clyde: Yeah, but I don’t think you really want me to take you tonight.

Nancy: It is crazy, right? I’m asking you to be my plus-one at the wedding of my ex-husband and his boyfriend. Why don’t think you should go with me? Because you were in prison?

Clyde: Well, you said it didn’t matter to you, so why I would care what other people think?

Nancy: Then why did you say you shouldn’t go with me?

Clyde: Because I think you’re worried about people seeing you there alone. I think you’re afraid that people will feel sorry for you. And I’d tell you, that just ain’t gonna happen.

Nancy: How do you know?

Clyde: Nancy miller, you go to that wedding and hold your pretty little head up high, just like you’ve been doing ever since we sat down to talk, and people there will see exactly what I see.

Nancy: And what’s that?

Clyde: A beautiful, strong woman who doesn’t need a man to make herself complete.

Chloe: As much as I would love for you to go with me to this wedding–

Brady: What? What?

Chloe: Are you sure you’re ready for rachel to find out about us?

Brady: I haven’t told her yet, but do you how she feels about you?

Chloe: Yeah, she likes me because I’m your friend.

Brady: No, that’s not true. It’s not the only reason.

Chloe: Well, she might not like me if I’m your girlfriend.

Brady: Chloe, I have talked to her about kristen and me. She knows that we will always love her, but she knows that mommy and daddy will never be a couple again.

Chloe: Poor baby.

Brady: Yeah, it’s sad, but… she also doesn’t want her daddy to be lonely. She did tell me that. And when we’re together, she sees how happy that makes me. So I think that she would think that that was a good thing.

Chloe: Are you sure?

Brady: I am.

Chloe: Oh, brady.

[Soft music]

Craig: I’d like to propose a toast. To leo, the man who makes my heart sing and who I’ll soon be lucky enough to call my husband.

Leo: To the bravest man I know, my husband-to-be, who took on all the people he loves because he loves me.

Xander: To my bonny bride. She’s everything that I love in a woman. She’s beautiful, she’s bright, and she can drink you lot under the table.

Jack: To my good friend, xander, who stood up for my daughter, stood behind her, and showed me finally how to see what he saw in her: A young woman who just wants to be loved. And now she is, by both of us. To love.

Craig: Hear, hear!

Xander: To love.

Jennifer: Gwen is the one that knocked you unconscious? She is the reason that you were kidnapped?

Abigail: Yes. Yes, but she doesn’t know that I know that. So we– we got to keep our voices down.

Jennifer: How can I keep my voice down? I just told her how proud I was of her. Do you know how devastated your father is going to be by all of this?

Abigail: I’m sure he is.

Jennifer: Why did she do this to you?

Abigail: I think I know. I don’t want to talk about it until I know for sure that I’m right.

Jennifer: Why haven’t you confronted her about this?

Abigail: Ava told me there’s so much more to know about gwen. I want it all. And ava’s forcing me to broker a plea deal for her with the da. Otherwise, she won’t talk.

Jennifer: Does she have any idea that you are on to all of this?

Abigail: She tracked me down at the police station today. I think it’s because she doesn’t want me talking to ava.

Jennifer: What did you do?

Abigail: I told her that she wouldn’t tell me who her accomplice was.

Jennifer: And she believed you?

Abigail: Yeah. And that’s the way that I want it. I can’t have her going down there and telling ava not to talk.

Jennifer: So this whole miraculous change in her character has just been an act this whole time?

Abigail: I think so. And it scares me, you know, because she’s already done so much to our family. What if she’s planning something else?

Jennifer: Abigail, you can’t let her do anything else to you. Please.

Abigail: Trust me, I’m gonna protect myself. But I can’t do that unless I know the whole truth.

Gwen: The whole truth about what?

[Dramatic music]

To be a thriver with metastatic breast cancer means…

Abigail: Oh, mom and i were just talking shop. I wanted her advice on how to handle a source because I’m not sure he’s being truthful.

Gwen: Oh, right. I’m sorry if I’m interrupting.

Abigail: No, you’re not. I’m your matron of honor, and I’m at your disposal.

Gwen: Well, it was just the dress I bought, I can’t quite do the zipper myself.

Abigail: Oh, yeah, okay, well, let’s go get you into it.

Gwen: Right. Okay.

[Moody music]

Nancy: Clyde, let me ask you something. Are you turning me down about going to the wedding tonight because you’re just not interested? I mean, I’m a big girl, in more ways than one. You don’t have to let me down easy.

Clyde: Nancy, life’s too short to fool around. If I wasn’t interested in you, I wouldn’t waste your time or mine.

Nancy: I already like you.

Clyde: I like you too, nancy. Which is another reason for me to stay away from that wedding.

Nancy: I’m sorry. I don’t know what you mean.

Clyde: On our first date, I don’t want to deal with a bunch of other people. I want you all to myself.

Craig: I hate to question your taste, but xander is not all that.

Leo: Excuse me?

Craig: I’ll be standing near him at the wedding tonight, but I only have eyes for you.

[Knock at door] Oh, my god, what now?

Xander: Oh, hey, sorry, I just jumped in the shower, and I stupidly didn’t check before, but I don’t have any of those little shampoo bottles. You have any extra?

Craig: Uh, the maid, I think left a few this morning–

Leo: I’ll get them.

Craig: So, married.

Xander: You nervous?

Craig: I’m–yeah, no.

Xander: Oh, thanks so much, mate. Cheers. I’ll see you guys at the wedding.

Craig: I take that back. In a towel, he is–

Leo: All that.

Craig: Definitely.

Chloe: So we are going to this wedding together.

Brady: Yeah, we are.

Chloe: So we’re officially a thing?

Brady: Yeah. Couldn’t be happier about it.

Chloe: Okay, well, I am, too, but I really should go get ready for this thing.

Brady: Yeah, you know what? Maybe you should just stay, and maybe we could go to my room. The wedding isn’t for many hours.

Chloe: Oh, you’re right, it isn’T.

[Cell phone beeps]

Brady: God, really? It’s from sonny. He and chad have met with jackie cox. They have something on leo.

Bridget: This is good.

Ridge: Yeah?

Bridget: Very, very good. I am pleased with the progress you’re making, steffy.

Steffy: Mm. Can… I go home?

Bridget: Let’s not get ahead of ourselves right now. Not quite yet, okay, honey?

Ridge: Come here a second. Do you think I could try again? You know, trying to find out again, what happened in the alley, jog her memory a little bit–

Bridget: Ridge, just don’t get disappointed if she doesn’t have answers.

Ridge: I’m not– okay, hey, baby, you awake?

Steffy: Mm.

Ridge: I just want to try one more time, see if– maybe you remember what happened that night. Who did this to you?

Deacon: You were really going to jump?

Sheila: Yes.

Deacon: I just had no idea that you were that depressed.

Sheila: Am that depressed, deacon, I am. I would’ve done it. I just want the pain to go away I have never felt so low and worthless.

Deacon: And then taylor showed up.

Sheila: Yeah. She tried to stop me.

Taylor: Sheila!

Sheila: I was gonna do it anyway.

Taylor: Don’t do it.

Sheila: And she made a move toward me, and she slipped. She saved my life.

Taylor: Don’t drop me! [ Sobbing ] Thank you!

Sheila: And I saved hers.

Taylor: Have the kids been asking questions?

Hope: Uh, well, douglas did ask how long kelly and hayes are going to be there.

Liam: Oh, man.

Hope: Yeah.

Taylor: Well, he’s a very smart kid. I’m sure he’ll figure out something’s going on soon.

Liam: Yeah, probably. I ju– I’m grateful that steffy’s doing better, because at least it’s going to make that very difficult conversation we have to have with them a little bit easier. But– hey.

Brooke: Hi! I heard that steffy was awake.

Taylor: She is.

Brooke: She is? That’s wonderful. You must be so relieved.

Taylor: I am.

Brooke: So where’s ridge?

Carter: Uh, quinn, um, what can I do for you?

Quinn: Well, um, I thought it was time to give this back to you. Key to your loft. I figured enough time has passed. Maybe there was another someone special you might want to give it to. But… I never would have thought… you and paris. It’s true? You’re involved with paris because I saw her face when she walked out right now. That’s why she and zende aren’t engaged. [ Sighing ] Carter, what have you gotten yourself into?

Brooke: So, is ridge here?

Taylor: He is, yes. He’s in with steffy right now.

Brooke: Oh, okay. Yeah. So I probably shouldn’t interrupt.

Taylor: Yeah, probably.

Brooke: Has steffy said anything so far? Does she know who did this to her and finn?

Deacon: Hey. I don’t need to worry about you, do I? I– I mean, right now. Sheila, I know–

Sheila: No you have no idea.

Deacon: Okay, fair enough. You’re right. I don’T.

Sheila: Finn is dead. And my grandson is gonna grow up without his father.

Deacon: And maybe without a mother. Which is all the reason why you need to stay in this world. You gotta be here for– for hayes– I– sheila, you gotta be here for hayes if steffy doesn’t pull through.

Sheila: She’s doing better. Uh, she’s not out of the woods yet, but– but she’s awake.

Deacon: Hey! That’s great– that– that’s good news, right?

Steffy: It’s fuzzy how– I don’t remember being shot at. I don’T.

Bridget: Honey, maybe if you concentrate on why you were there in the first place?

Ridge: Yeah. Why– why were you in the alley with finn? You guys going out for a drink? Maybe? What were you doing?

Bridget: It’s okay, steffy, if you need to rest.

Steffy: No. I– I want to help.

Ridge: You are, you are helping, just try to see if– you remember a face, maybe? Was it a man or a woman? Tall, short? Anything? Who shot you, baby? Hi, I’m karen.

Quinn: So this thing between you and paris, this has been going on since new year’s eve?

Carter: It was a mistake, and it never should have happened. So it was an attraction we’re going to have to fight.

[ Keys jangling ] What?

Quinn: Trying to fight an attraction to you. That’s something I know a little bit about.

Taylor: Steffy doesn’t remember anything about the shooting. Her, finn.

Brooke: Oh, no.

Liam: But bridget did say that, um, that’s relatively normal, right, taylor? Like, we shouldn’t be too concerned about it.

Taylor: Well, I mean, it’s not ideal. But I– I don’t think we should worry. It’s understandable that steffy would suppress this kind of trauma.

Hope: Yeah, but suppress for how long?

Taylor: I don’t know. Right now, steffy is– she’s and out of consciousness. She has to be reminded where she is and what happened. [ Sighing ] But you know what? She’s– she’s made so much progress already. She’s– she’s awake. She’s getting better by the hour. Hopefully, she’ll be able to connect the dots and find out who did this.

Deacon: I get that steffy hasn’t exactly treated you with kindness since you came back. But I can’t believe that you would wish her dead.

Sheila: What I wish is that I could go back in time. Before they got shot and do somethin– just do something to stop it.

Deacon: I’m so sorry, sheila.

Sheila: So am I. I just wish that I could tell finn that. I could see him just one more time. Tell him how much I love him and how sorry I am. He’s gone. And I’m– I’m never gonna get to see him again. I’ll never get to see him again. [ Sobbing ]

Steffy: I want to remember. [ Wincing ]

Bridget: I think she’s had enough.

Steffy: I– I want to remember, but I can’t–

Ridge: It’s okay. It’s okay.

Steffy: I can’T.

Ridge: It’s okay. Rest. Just close your eyes and get some rest. It’s okay. What– I’m sorry. I’m just trying to find out who did this to her.

Bridget: I know, ridge, I know. And it will happen.

Ridge: It will happen. I promise you.

Ridge: We’ll find whoever did this. I know there’s more heartache coming your way, but– I’m here. I’m right here.

Brooke: Has anybody told her, about finn?

Liam: No. I mean, I– I don’t- I don’t think so, but, uh– it’s just– I mean that conversation, it’s going to be impossible. How do we even– she lost her husband, you know.

Hope: Hi, amelia said that the kids are fine. And if we wanted to, she can bring them by the hospital later.

Liam: Oh, excellent. That’s really cool. I would, I– I would like to stay a little bit longer, at least until I can have a– a proper conversation with steffy. Um, actually, maybe I’m going to see if I can go do that now. Do you mind?

Hope: No.

Liam: All right. I love you.

Taylor: You happy with the numbers?

Bridget: Quite happy. You saw the follow up ct scan?

Taylor: Yeah.

Bridget: This is exactly where I would expect steffy to be.

Taylor: What about her memory?

Bridget: Taylor. You, of all people, know we don’t worry about that yet.

Taylor: Yeah, as a doctor. Sure. I’ve been trying to stay positive around my family. Not let them know what I’m feeling. But as a mother, I’m freaking out, bridget.

Bridget: Just remember, she regained consciousness.

Taylor: Yeah, hm.

Bridget: That was our biggest hurdle. Taylor, look at me. You got to hang in there, okay?

Taylor: Yes. Thank you. I’m– I’m trying. I’m trying.

Bridget: Don’t forget, it may not be such a bad thing that she doesn’t recall everything, just for the time being.

[ Sighing ]

Taylor: I can’t imagine what it’s going to be like for her to have to recall that horrific night. To experience those emotions again, and all of that but I know that it’s important, so she can tell us who did this, so we can put them behind bars.

Bridget: Well, it was a good sign that she woke up and knows who she is, who we are. We just need to give her some time to remember the events of that night.

Taylor: But when is she going to remember? When is she gonna be able to tell us what happened?

Quinn: Who knew paris and I would have so much in common. I should go and find her. Give her some advice–

Carter: No, no, no. Please don’T. Don’t do that.

Quinn: What? Professor quinn, how to get over carter walton 101.

Carter: Why is this funny? Why– why are you joking right now?

[ Chuckling ]

Quinn: Are you sure things are really over?

Carter: Yes. Yes. Falling for a woman involved with another man? Fool me once, right?

Quinn: Are you all right?

Carter: Can I tell you the truth?

Quinn: Always.

Carter: I haven’t been all right since you went back to eric. Been a bit of a mess, very confused, and– instead of moving on with a woman who’s available, what do I do? I hook up with zende’s girlfriend, he’s one of my best friends, and then– I let something happen with the woman I knew I couldn’t have. A relationship I knew would go nowhere.

Quinn: Why would you do that to yourself?

Carter: Because I couldn’t go after a woman with actual potential. Couldn’t risk starting something, not when…

Quinn: Not when what?

Carter: Not when a part of me is… still wanting… wishing. I miss you, quinn. I miss you.

Quinn: I miss you, too.

Taylor: It’s so upsetting, knowing that whoever did this is just walking around free.

Bridget: I know. I understand. I really, really do understand your frustration. But you have got to have some patience. You know, we just have to hope that steffy will be able to remember everything.

Taylor: You don’t really believe that she won’t, do you? See, I–I’ve been trying to stay strong for my family. Not wanting them to see that there is– there’s a part of me that is afraid that she’s not going to remember anything. You think the same thing too, don’t you? You think it’s possible& steffy might not remember what happened that night?

Brooke: Must be a little strange for you. Your husband has barely left the hospital since he found out, practically holding vigil at his ex-wife’s bedside.

Hope: Uh mom, steffy is very important to liam.

Brooke: Yes, they share a history.

Hope: And they share a child. So trust me, liam is exactly where he should be.

Brooke: Okay. What about you?

Hope: What about me?

Brooke: Uh, you and liam are a couple. Why didn’t you go in there with him?

Hope: Because steffy is still in a fragile state. She experienced something very traumatic, and I don’t want to overwhelm her. And besides, liam should have alone time with her. Mom, where is all this coming from?

Hope: I just thought you should have gone in there with him, that’s all. I mean, why wouldn’t you go in there? Liam is your husband.

Hope: I know that, mom. I know. And you don’t have to worry because nothing is going to change that.

[ Groaning ]

Ridge: Hey.

Steffy: Dad?

Ridge: You’re all right? You’re in pain?

Steffy: A little bit. Where am I? What happened?

Ridge: Wait, wait, you’re in the hospital, we talked about this. You– everything’s fine.

Steffy: Oh. Yeah, you– you want me to remember.

Ridge: Don’t worry about that.

Steffy: Yeah.

Ridge: Just rest, don’t worry.

Liam: Hey. Room for one more?

Ridge: Sure.

Liam: I, uh– I heard a rumor somebody is up and talking.

Steffy: Liam! Oh, liam.

Liam: Hey! Hey. Oh, my god. Oh, my god. There you are. Oh, boy. Look at you. Look at your smile. You really came back to us, didn’t you? Do you have any idea how worried I was about you? What I would have done if you had left us?

Steffy: I would never leave you. I would never, ever, ever leave you. Thank god you’re here. Thank god.

Liam: Honey, of course I’m here. I’m here.

Steffy: I needed you. Oh, I needed you. I needed you. I needed my sweet husband. Oh, I needed you. My sweet husband. [ Steffy sobbing ] [ Sobbing ]

Young & The Restless Update

Y&R logo

Recap written by Christine

At Society, Nikki frantically called Victoria’s name. Victor asked what was going on. Nikki heard Victoria scream and the sounds of a car crash, then the call dropped. Victor instructed Nikki to call Victoria right back. Nikki did so, and didn’t get an answer. Victor called security and told them to check all the roads between Newman Tower and Victoria’s house and between the tower and the ranch.

At Crimson Lights, Nick said he’d take his drink to go, and get out of Sharon’s hair so she could go home and have a nice night with her husband. With a sour expression, Sharon said she was sure Rey would have a nice night, but it wouldn’t be with her. She craned her neck and looked out to the patio where Chelsea and Connor sat. Sharon brought Nick up to speed on Chelsea, Rey and Connor’s plans. Nick told Sharon that she had nothing to worry about, because a hockey game with a kid in tow was the opposite of romantic. Sharon knew Rey was 100% trustworthy, but she didn’t trust Chelsea. Sharon recognized that Chelsea made an enormous change, but this was an overnight trip, and it was hard for Sharon not to instinctively jump to conclusions when it came to Chelsea.

Nick agreed that Chelsea wasn’t the most trustworthy person, but he told Sharon that her husband was solid. She knew, but she didn’t see why a hockey game had to turn into an overnight trip. Nick joked that Rey must not really want to go on the trip, since if he did, he would already be on his way to Chicago by now. Sharon grinned and said Nick always knew how to make her feel better.

Out on the patio, Connor told Chelsea that they’d miss the puck drop if they didn’t leave soon. Chelsea thought Rey would’ve been back by now too. She called him and left a message checking in. Afterward, she gave Connor a reassuring smile and told him there was still plenty of time to make it to Chicago.

Victor called Nick and asked if he heard from Victoria recently or knew where she’d been driving to. The answer was no on both accounts. Nick learned there may have been an accident, so he said he’d go looking for Victoria. Victor already called the police and instructed his team to look for Victoria. He implored his son to drive safe in this terrible weather. Nick told Sharon what was going on. She was optimistic that everything was okay. Right after he left, Chelsea came in and told Sharon that Rey should’ve been back by now, and he wasn’t answering any of her calls.

Sharon called Rey and got voicemail. She left a message that they were starting to get a little worried because he was late. She asked him to call her back, and she said she loved him. Afterward, Sharon told Chelsea that Rey was probably driving very slowly because of the fog. Chelsea saw what a conscientious driver Rey was when they went to visit her mom. She said he probably just didn’t think it was safe to be on the road. Sharon nodded, but it was obvious that she was worried, so Chelsea asked about it. Sharon wasn’t worried about Rey, but the Newmans thought Victoria may have been in an accident. Sharon theorized that Rey heard about the accident and went to the scene. Chelsea hoped Victoria was alright. Sharon did too.

Chance went to Crimson Lights after his shift at the station. Sharon inquired about any accidents. He hadn’t heard anything. She told him about Victoria, so he called the station to see if there had been any new accident reports since he left.

Out on the patio, Connor pouted because they were going to miss the game. Chelsea told him that Rey must’ve gotten caught up in police work. She promised that even if they didn’t get to Chicago tonight, Rey would make it up to him, because that was the kind of guy Rey was.

Back inside, Chance said that there had been a couple fender benders, but no major accidents were reported, so if Victoria had an accident, it was minor. Sharon was relieved to hear that. She wished Rey would show up. Chance thought he already left for Chicago. Sharon explained that Rey forgot the tickets and went home to get them, but he’d been gone for awhile, and Connor was getting anxious. Chance was concerned because when he talked to Rey earlier, he’d been leaving the ranch with the tickets, and he should’ve been back by now.

In the Grand Phoenix suite, Adam headed over to the window. He flashed back to the first time he and Sally got a room. He remembered their passionate kiss and frenetically unbuttoning each other’s clothes, before falling back on the bed. After the memory, Adam called Sally and told her not to rush, because he could see that the fog was getting worse. He promised he was patiently waiting. Victor called Adam and asked if he’d heard from Victoria. He hadn’t, but he acknowledged he was the last one Victoria would call, even in an emergency. Adam asked if there was anything he could do to help, and Victor appreciated the offer, but he didn’t have a way for Adam to help. Sally entered and overheard Adam say Victoria was strong enough to handle herself in any situation. Victor agreed, and the call ended.

Adam told Sally that Victoria may have been in a car accident, but he didn’t want to jump to the worst case scenario. He said that this kind of put a damper on his celebration with Sally. She was understanding and said they’d have plenty of time for that. She asked if he really thought Victoria was in trouble. He didn’t know, but his dad sounded worried. He just wished someone would call and let him know what was going on. Sally was sure Adam would hear as soon as there was news, but he didn’t think his family would think to keep him in the loop. He lamented that he was always last on the list of contacts, if he even made the list at all. Sally countered Adam’s assertion by reminding him that Victor just called. Adam said Victor only called because he needed information. He felt like he was only a priority when Victor thought he could be useful.

Sally noted that Victor was constantly shooing her out of the office because he wanted to talk top secret things with Adam. Adam asked if Sally was trying to cheer him up by pointing out that Victor was ruder to her than he was to Adam. She asked if it was working. He said he wasn’t worried about being part of the inner sanctum. He just wanted to hear whether Victoria was alright. Sally realized Adam was really worried. “Well of course I am!,” he snapped. Adam was offended because he thought Sally was implying that he’d be happy if Victoria got seriously hurt or worse, because that would improve Adam and Sally’s chances at Newman Locke.

Now Sally was offended, and she decided to leave. “This was a mistake, and I don’t just mean our little celebration here,” she said. Adam softened when he realized he’d upset Sally. She was deeply hurt that he’d even suggested she’d be so cold and calculated about a woman’s life. She thought it was clear that he didn’t know her at all, and while she could take harsh judgments from others, she wasn’t going to take it from him. He clarified that he mean it that way. Sally thought Adam knew she wasn’t the kind of person who automatically assumed the worst of him. He apologized for the cruel and unfair comment. He admitted the truth was that he’d been asking himself that same twisted question. “Am I genuinely concerned about my sister or is a part of me thinking if something were to happen to her, would that be a leg up for me at Newman Locke?,” Adam revealed.

Adam hated that he’d entertained that thought, even for a second. Sally thought the fact that Adam hated it proved he didn’t actually feel that way. He suggested that he was just trying to convince himself that he wasn’t that cold and selfish. He admitted that the plan to pay off Locke was more about impressing Victor than helping Victoria. He’d seen Victoria’s relationship with a con artist as an opportunity, and that wasn’t particularly brotherly. Sally said Victoria would’ve done the same thing if the situation were reversed. She said Victoria and Adam’s sibling bond was based on one-upmanship. Adam took the blame for that. He said he’d spent years looking at Victoria as a rival, so she felt the need to defend herself. Sally wouldn’t let Adam believe he was cold and selfish, because she knew in her heart that he wasn’t. “I wouldn’t be falling in love with someone like that,” she said. “Are you saying that you’re falling in love with me?,” he asked.

Back at Society, Victor and Nikki looked at each other with worried expressions. Nick came in. He’d had no luck finding Victoria, and when the fog got even worse, he decided to get off the road. Nikki wanted to go search, but Victor and Nick both said no, because it was too dangerous. Nick told his mom to let the professionals do their job. “You know, this is my fault. If I had not told my security team to stop tailing Victoria and instead go after Ashland Locke, we now would’ve known where she is,” Victor said. Nikki told Victor not to blame himself. She thought he made the right decision having Ashland tailed, since they all knew how dangerous that man was. Nick asked where Ashland was right now. Victor didn’t know. He was waiting for an answer form his team. Nick was concerned that this car crash Nikki heard wasn’t an accident and that someone had hurt Victoria on purpose. Victor didn’t even want to think about that. Victor got a call that infuriated him – his team couldn’t find Victoria, and they’d lost track of Ashland earlier, and they’d waited to tell Victor instead of informing him immediately.

Victor slammed his phone on the table and ranted about his team’s utter incompetence. Nick defended the security team – it was so foggy out that he wasn’t surprised they lost track of Ashland. Victor’s team called and told him there was a report of an accident. Nick and Nikki were upset when he relayed the news.

Victoria was unconscious in her car, which had hit a tree. Smoke billowed out from under the vehicle. Ashland’s car had also crashed, and he was passed out as well. When he came to, he called Victoria’s name. He saw her car and sprang into action, trying to get to her, but his door was pinned by a fallen tree. He kept calling for Victoria, who was unresponsive. He grabbed his phone to call the police, but the screen was smashed. To his horror, flames suddenly engulfed the hood of Victoria’s car.

Ashland screamed for help, then he grunted in exertion as he pried the door open. He’d injured his leg in the crash, and he quickly hobbled over to Victoria’s car. The flames had traveled up to Victoria’s door now, and Ashland burned himself when he tried to free her. He took off his jacket and wrapped it around his hand to block the flames, then he tried again. This time, he was able to open the door. He checked her pulse and thanked God she was still alive. Lifting her out of the car, he put her over his shoulder and promised he wouldn’t let her die.

Ashland burst into a rundown cabin and put Victoria on a bed. He said she was tough – she’d survived everything he did to her, so she could certainly survive a car crash. He looked at his hand, which was red and blistering, then he returned to encouraging Victoria. She began to cough, and she opened her eyes and saw Ashland’s face. She scrambled backward on the bed, ordering him to get away from her. Ashland urged Victoria to stay still because she might have internal injuries. She bombarded him with questions about where they were and why he was still around. He told her about the crash and fire, and he asked if she had her phone. She didn’t. He asked if she’d be okay without him while he went to look for her phone. She said yes, and he told her to stay put, then he left.

After Ashland was gone, Victoria tried to get up, but she couldn’t walk because she’d hurt her knee. She yelled for help, and Ashland ran back inside. He couldn’t get the phone, because the whole car was on fire. She was sure there must be a house nearby, but he said this was the only structure in the area, so they were stranded. She figured someone would drive by and see the wreck soon. He turned away, and she realized there was something he wasn’t telling her.

Ashland said he was just shaken up because of seeing Victoria unconscious in the car and the fire. He was grateful she was okay. Victoria asked what Ashland was even doing here. She looked fearful and wondered if the crash was actually an accident or if he’d been the one who ran her off the road. He swore he’d never do such a thing. He explained that he’d been concerned about her driving in the fog while she was distraught from their confrontation, so he’d followed her to make sure she’d be okay. The thought of anything happening to her terrified him – he knew she despised him, but that didn’t mean he didn’t love and care about her. He acknowledged he’d hurt her so deeply, and he couldn’t bear the thought of anything like that happening again.

Victoria questioned what Ashland was keeping from her. He changed the subject again, and she called him out on it. Ashland suggested Victoria was suspicious because he’d been dishonest in the past, but she said that she could finally tell when he was keeping the truth from him. She asked him to just tell her what happened. He begged her not to tax herself right now and to stay calm until she received medical attention. Victoria’s memory began to trickle back. She’d seen lights in front of her, and it couldn’t have been Ashland because he’d been following her.

Victoria grappled with the revelation that there had been another car. Ashland assured her that the accident wasn’t her fault. Victoria remembered being on the phone with her mom, on speaker, then she saw headlights come sliding into in her lane. Ashland confirmed this and said Victoria had to swerve to avoid the car. Victoria remembered she lost control of the car, and everything went black. She asked what happened next, and he filled in the blanks. According to Ashland, Victoria swerved out of the way of the oncoming car. Ashland had turned sharply to one side to try and avoid the other car, but he couldn’t get out of the way in time. This third car hit the side of Ashland’s car, while Victoria’s car hit a tree. Ashland then recapped the aftermath of the accident, which was shown earlier in the episode.

Victoria took Ashland’s injured hand and acknowledged he’d gotten burned saving her. “You actually risked your life to save mine.” Crying, Ashland said the last time this happened, he ran and left his best friend to die in a burning car. He couldn’t do that again – he’d had to do everything he could to save her. Victoria asked if the other driver was okay. He told her to rest and not to get upset about the other driver. Agitated, she told him to stop trying to protect her and answer the question.

When Ashland went to get Victoria’s phone earlier, he’d checked on the third car. It was in a ditch, and it was way more damaged than Ashland and Victoria’s vehicles. She asked about the driver. The other driver was killed. Victoria’s eyes filled with tears. She said that was awful. She repeated that all she’d seen were headlights. Ashland was sorry to report that Victoria knew the deceased driver – it was Rey.

Phyllis: Please don’t make me play this game with you, “Taylor.” Let me in. I have a master key. Please don’t make me use it.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

[ Exhales sharply ] Phyllis, wow, what a surprise.

Phyllis: Stop. Seriously? You didn’t think I was gonna figure out your alias when you checked in to my hotel?

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

Diane: Your hotel

? My, my, how things do change.

Phyllis: Stop the act. You know this is my hotel. You know that. That’s why you made a beeline for it when you landed.

Diane: You’re right. I won’t insult your intelligence that way. What I mean is it would be a pointless lie since I know very well what you’ve been up to since I’ve been away.

Phyllis: Oh, do you?

Diane: Mm-hmm.

Phyllis: Oh, is that so?

Diane: I’ve followed the lives of a lot of people in Genoa City, not just Jack and Kyle.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness, listen to you. And I’m on the short list. I’m so lucky.

Diane: You’re running with the big dogs now.

[ Chuckles ] Congratulations, Phyllis. It’s a beautiful hotel. And you fought hard to make this a success. Your success. You know, I’m really quite impressed given —

Phyllis: Okay, cut. Cut the act. Alright, did you follow me and Jack from LA? Is that what you did?

Diane: Don’t be absurd.

Phyllis: Do you have any idea the hell that’s gonna rain down on you if anyone knows you’re here, Diane?

Update written by Dustin

At the gym, Michael is sparring with Drew when T.J. walks in. Michael tells Drew that Nina is taking Michael and Willow to court over visitation rights to Wiley. Michael says that he began a battle that could get very nasty. Drew tells him that he is a good father and that he would do exactly what he is doing if he were in his place.

T.J. and Marshall discuss what T.J. is considering to be his specialty since he is getting close to that point in medical school when students decide. T.J. tells Marshall that he feels a real camaraderie when he is working on a surgical team.

Marshall approaches Drew, while Michael is still with him and says that he is ready to talk about the job that Drew offered him. Drew says that he is sorry but they have already moved on with another candidate. Marshall sees right through the whole scheme. He realizes that Curtis asked Drew to pretend to hire him simply so that Drew could pull a background check on Marshall.

Britt pulls Spencer out of Kelly’s when he and Josslyn get into a heated argument over his apparent blind loyalty to Esme. Cameron tries to talk Joss down and tells her that Spencer has asked to come back to work there. Joss can’t believe that Cameron is even considering allowing Spencer to hang out there let alone coming back to work. Trina says that she needs a minute and when she comes back to the table Cameron and Josslyn are still arguing about Spencer. Josslyn says that she can’t believe that Cameron isn’t backing her on this. Cameron says that the decision to rehire Spencer will be his to make and won’t be influenced by drama that seems to surround them now. Josslyn says, “this is so typical, guys always forgive guys.” Cameron is offended and says that Joss wouldn’t be mad at Cameron if she knew what he was really up to.

Britt gives Spencer a shoulder to lean on. He tells her about the sex tape and the terrible place he is in, being stuck between friends who think he is disloyal and a girlfriend he is pretending to love while he gathers evidence. Spencer tells Britt that talking to her has always made things better. Britt says that Spencer will always do the right thing in the end. Spencer thanks her for dinner and then leaves.

Portia and Jordan are at odds over Trina’s case. Curtis asks them to take a deep breath. They move their conversation to a private office but Portia tells Jordan outright that she can’t be impartial about the case because of the elephant in the room, that being Curtis.

Alexis is horrified when she finds Brendan’s body in the water at the pier. She is even more horrified when the police identify the victim as Brendan. She tells Jordan that she knew him that he was the brother of her ex-boyfriend but she hasn’t seen him since the funeral. Except for a few days prior when he stopped by her office looking for a job. Jordan continues to come up with questions for Alexis and finally when Alexis says she is going home that she no longer feels like visiting Nikolas, Jordan asks if that is because she is not in the mood or is upset over the grisly discovery. Alexis tells Jordan if she has anything further to say she will need to contact her attorney, Diane Miller.

Valentin shows up at Anna’s place bearing wine as a gift. He tells Anna he has heard that she has been doing some traveling. Anna says that the travel has been strictly business. Anna tells Valentin about the night she allowed Peter to die without medical attention. Valentin says that Peter couldn’t be redeemed and that Anna made the right call. He goes a step further by saying that he would have enjoyed watching Peter take it. Anna says that she has missed him and she can’t believe that he never bothered to call. Anna is clearly not pleased with the situation with Valentin. She asks him if he has seen his father lately. Valentin says that he has not seen him in awhile. Valentin then decides he will not be able to stay for the wine. Anna says that it’s his decision but tells him not to expect her to keep it for him. They go to the door and say goodbye, the tension is palpable. Then immediately after closing the door, Valentin knocks again. Anna asks if he’s forgotten something and they share a passionate kiss.

Young & The Restless Update

Recap written by Christine

Ashland came to Newman Locke to pick Victoria up after he signed the papers ceding control of the company and annulling their marriage. She bitterly revealed that she tricked him into thinking she’d leave town with him so that he’d sign everything away. She wanted out of the marriage and him out of the company. She said he prided himself on being one step ahead of everyone else, so she asked if he didn’t see this coming. He admitted he didn’t know what to think over the last few days, but when she said she’d said she’d run away with him to Tuscany, he was overjoyed, and he didn’t question it because he didn’t want to. He still thought they could make this work. He tried to hug her, but she shirked him off. “Everything I’ve said to you the past couple of days has been a lie. Not some grand fabrication that ‘I have cancer and I’m dying,’ but a lie nonetheless. And now you know you’ve been deceived. So all those feelings you might be having right now of betrayal and humiliation – I know them. I know them well. It’s your turn now,” Victoria said.

Victoria was insulted that Ashland thought she’d believe someone would go through the trouble of making it look like he’d faked a cancer diagnosis. She asked if he thought she was an idiot. He didn’t but he felt he had no choice but to tell her he’d been framed. He asked if she would’ve forgiven him if he’d come to her and said he made a terrible mistake and lied about having cancer. He never actually thought she’d believe in her head that he’d been set up, but he was hoping that she’d want to believe it in her heart. He’d been trying to stall things, because he thought that in time, their love would win out and that they could have a future. She was adamant that they’d never have a future after what he did. He still thought they could be together. She told him to stop lying. She said he didn’t get control of Newman Locke, but he could take comfort in having money and freedom. He didn’t care about the money or the freedom. All he wanted was Victoria.

Victoria told Ashland that he was very committed to his scam, playing the devoted husband all the way to the bitter end. Ashland swore he was sincere. Victoria wanted Ashland to admit to everything he’d done. She wanted to know how he could sink to such a disgusting low – pretending to have a devastating disease. She thought she deserved the truth. “Fine. Here it is. I lied about having cancer,” Ashland stated. Ashland said that wasn’t the whole story though. He didn’t come to town with his sights set on Newman Enterprises, but then he found out his wife was cheating on him and that his son wasn’t his. Victoria was appalled Ashland was using his son as an excuse. Ashland had been devastated and furious, then he saw an opportunity to do something bigger than he’d ever done before, and he set his sights on Victoria’s family’s company.

Victoria recalled that Ashland didn’t waste any time – he’d invited her to NY right after he found out about Harrison, then he told her about his cancer diagnosis while they were there. He said he had momentum, and he was moving forward, and it was so easy to sell the story that the scans taken after his heart attack showed signs of cancer. At the time, Victoria had been surprised Ashland would want her around just after he found out he had cancer, since they were basically strangers. Now, she knew he did it because it would create an instant bond and make her feel compassion toward him. She asked how he could let that sweet innocent little boy think he was dying. He had no defense, but he did what he could to keep Harrison out of it. She noted that this was why he didn’t fight Kyle taking Harrison to Italy. He said that was right. He admitted he took advantage of Victoria and worked an angle to win her love and trust. “Death? That was an angle?,” she asked. She said the merger was his ultimate power grab, and also the most selfish and disgusting move of his entire career. He agreed with all of this. He confessed that he’d even been proud of himself at the time, but then he unexpectedly fell in love with her.

Victoria didn’t think Ashland understood what love was. He gently grabbed her arms and told her that he did know what it was. He believed they could get past this. He’d never loved anyone as profoundly as he loved her. He said he’d be a lost man if he walked out that door without her. For the first time in his life, he didn’t now what to do next. She was unsympathetic. She told him he had every opportunity to come clean before tonight, but he’d just lied and lied. She thought that the only reason he came clean was because he’d been backed into a corner – that wasn’t love. She felt demoralized because he’d shown her who he was over and over again – he took his dead best friend’s identity, and he forged a letter to get his hands on his mentor’s fortune. She’d looked past his sins and believed in him because she’d wanted to think he’d changed because of her. “I have changed. I gave up my life’s work, Locke Communications Group. I did that to show you that I would do anything for you,” he said. She asked why she’d believe anything that came out of his mouth. She told him she didn’t care what happened to him anymore. He didn’t believe she stopped caring about him. Ashland knew he deserved Victoria’s scorn, outrage and hatred, but he thought deep down inside, she was as conflicted as she was. He asked her again to leave town and start over. She said she was starting over, but not with him. He said he was sorry, and he went to the door. Victoria turned away, and Ashland took one last look at her, then he left.

Sharon was at Crimson Lights when Rey came up behind her, wrapped his arms around her and kissed her neck. She teased him by pretending to think he was someone else, and telling him that her husband wouldn’t approve. She noticed he had a new jacket and complimented it. He thanked her for being okay with him going on the trip to Chicago. He knew it was a little weird for him to be taking a trip with another woman and her son. She didn’t think it was weird. She thought he was more excited than Connor. He said it was his first live hockey game. Connor and Chelsea came in. Connor said the best part of this trip was that Rey would be there, no offense to Chelsea. She didn’t mind. Connor and Rey got a table and chatted in anticipation of the game.

Chelsea went to Sharon, who was behind the counter, packing a bag of snacks for the trip, and thanked her for lending them Rey. She said it meant so much to Connor. Chelsea, Connor and Rey were going to spend the night in Chicago, since it’d be past Connor’s bedtime when the game ended. Sharon thought it made sense for it to be an overnight trip, since it got foggy this time of the year, and it might not be safe to drive late. She just wanted them to bring Rey home safe and sound. Chelsea assured Sharon that they would. Sharon said she could enjoy having the house to herself and watching the shows Rey didn’t get into.

Chelsea noted that Sharon was going above and beyond to help prepare them for the trip to Chicago. Chelsea sensed that Sharon wasn’t happy about this trip, but she was working hard to make it seem like she was. Sharon said of course she was okay with it. Rey already told Sharon how Chelsea had a business trip and asked him to take Connor to the game, but when her trip was postponed, she decided to go, and she got another ticket for Rey. Chelsea said Connor had his heart set on this. Sharon thought the trip would be good for Rey, since he liked Connor. Chelsea thought Sharon might have an issue with Rey and Chelsea spending time together, giving their history. Sharon asked if Chelsea meant the history between the two of them or the history between Chelsea and Rey – when she poisoned him. Chelsea meant all of it. Chelsea just wanted Sharon to be comfortable. Sharon thought she’d made it clear that the past was in the past. She knew Chelsea was doing much better. Chelsea said Sharon and Rey had been so kind and offered her friendship, even though she didn’t deserve it, and she wouldn’t forget that.

Over at their table, Rey asked Connor if he was too old to learn to play hockey, and Connor said of course not. Rey asked Connor to give him some hockey lessons when they got back.

Sharon was glad that she and Chelsea got along these days. She didn’t think they should go looking for problems when there were none. Connor reminded Chelsea it was time to leave, so she went over to the table. Rey hoped he caught a puck. Chelsea hoped he didn’t catch it with his teeth. Chelsea put her hand on Rey’s shoulder as she laughed at her joke. Sharon watched.

At Newman Media, Victor said Adam’s idea worked, and hopefully Ashland would be out of their lives soon. Adam thought the deal was a success because Victor backed him when Ashland came to Victor and asked if the offer was legitimate. Victor said he and Adam made a good team. Adam thought Victoria would be irritated that her plan didn’t work, because it meant she wouldn’t get the satisfaction of throwing Adam under the bus, even temporarily. Victor said there was no place for sibling rivalry right now. He thought that Adam should feel compassionate toward his sister, not competitive. Victor gave Adam credit for getting rid of Ashland, but Victor sensed Adam wanted more than that. Adam smiled. Victor thought Adam should just be happy Ashland was out of the company and out of Victoria’s life. Adam said Victor was right. He said he’d try to focus on staying positive. He was sure Victoria would move past this in time. He added that the brilliant part of his plan was that they got to keep control of Locke Communications – for a bargain of half a billion dollars.

Nikki and Nick arrived at Newman Media. Nick had been trying to reach Victoria, and she wasn’t answering. Victor revealed that Ashland took the deal. Nick congratulated Adam. Nikki stated that she’d been skeptical, but she acknowledged that Adam really came through. He said it was all about helping the family. Victor nodded approvingly. Victor assumed Victoria and Ashland were talking right now. Nikki mentioned that Victoria got Ashland to sign the papers by telling him they’d still be together in spite of the annulment. Nikki said Ashland was a terrible person, but Victoria’s feelings for him were real. Nick said Victoria was strong and proud, and she could handle herself. He was worried about Ashland. Victor asked why. Nick said they had to watch Ashland until he was gone for good. Victor had told his team to stop following Victoria and to start following Locke. Later, Victor received a report that Ashland left Newman Locke by himself.

Back at Newman Locke, Victoria turned a picture of her and Ashland face down. She took her portrait off the wall and slammed it onto a sharp paperweight until the canvas ripped, then she ran out the door. Later, Victor, Nikki, Nick and Adam showed up. Nikki was horrified when she saw the portrait, because she thought Ashland destroyed it in a fit of rage. Victor thought Victoria did it. Adam thought it made sense for Victoria to need to blow off steam. He felt the destruction of the portrait seemed like the work of someone in a lot of pain. Nick called security and checked on Victoria’s status. He learned that Victoria was last seen leaving the parking garage a few minutes ago. Nikki wanted to call Victoria, but Victor thought she needed some time alone. Nick suggested they all go get some food. Adam couldn’t go because he had something to do. He left. Nikki wondered what could’ve made Victoria ruin the portrait. Nick had something to do, but he said he’d meet his parents at Society. he told Nikki that he thought Victor was right – Victoria needed space. Nick left. Nikki just wanted to help.

Adam went back to his office. He called Sally and said he had great news – his plan worked. She asked about his job status. He said he didn’t ask if he could stay on as CEO of Newman Locke, because it didn’t seem like the right time. He planned to broach the subject with Victor later. He wanted to celebrate, and they agreed to meet at the hotel. Adam went to the suite and found champagne and a note from Sally saying to get comfortable. He poured himself a glass of champagne and toasted to a new beginning.

Back at Crimson Lights, Sharon asked Rey to call or text when he got to Chicago, so she’d know he was safe. He teased that he had Connor to protect him. He gave her a peck on the lips and started to leave, but she called him back and gave him a longer kiss. Chelsea looked uncomfortable. Sharon and Rey said they loved each other. As they prepared to leave, Chelsea made sure she had her ticket. Rey checked his pockets and realized his and Connor’s tickets were still in his old jacket. He’d go home and get them. Chelsea took Connor out to the patio to wait so they wouldn’t be in the way. After Rey left, Nick went to Crimson Lights and brought Sharon up to speed. While Nick gave Adam credit for stepping up for the family, he believed it would be very difficult to get Adam out of the CEO’s seat. He worried that the family may have exchanged one mess for another. Sharon hoped not.

Victoria was in her car, crying. It was foggy, and she was traveling at a good rate of speed. She used her car’s hands-free phone to call Nikki. Nikki answered and invited Victoria to Society. Victoria needed to be alone. She just wanted to let Nikki know she was okay. Nikki said things would work out. Victoria didn’t think things would ever be okay again. She loved Ashland, and he made a fool out of her. She’d almost left town with him tonight. Victoria was so distraught, a concerned Nikki told her to pull over on the side of the road, so her parents could come pick her up. Victoria was crying harder now. “I keep making the same mistakes with men,” she said. There were suddenly headlights from another car shining in Victoria’s face. She screamed and the car started to flip. Nikki kept calling Victoria’s name while Victor looked at her in alarm.

Update written by Joseph

Chloe goes to see Brady at home. They kiss and Brady asks if she’s here to celebrate after giving Leo the pre-nup, which he calls brilliant. Brady asks how it went but Chloe reveals that Leo actually signed it which shocks Brady.

Leo tells Craig that he would do anything for him. Craig felt like he put him on the spot by insisting he sign the pre-nup. Leo hopes Craig knows that he only hesitated because he felt ambushed, not because of the money, and if he hadn’t signed it then it could’ve ruined their marriage because Chloe and everyone would continue to think he’s a gold digger, so he caved. Leo doesn’t like caving because he’s a very proud man. Craig calls him selfless when he thought he couldn’t love him more. Craig kisses Leo and thanks him, promising he won’t regret it as they hug.

Xander brings Jack home after driving him from the airport. Xander feels he owes him for being his best man. Jennifer comes in and praises Xander for looking after the garden. Jennifer says she’s so glad to be home, though she knows they missed so much while being away. Jack says they are here to celebrate the good news. Jack brings up Abigail being Gwen’s matron of honor, so he hopes this means they are finally patching things up.

Gwen arrives at the police station disguised in a hat and coat. She tries to sneak in to the interrogation room but is caught by Abigail. Gwen asks Abigail what she’s doing here. Abigail responds that she heard Ava had been arrested and she wanted to talk to her. Gwen questions what they could possibly have to talk about. Abigail thinks back to Ava telling her that Gwen attacked her. Abigail then tells Gwen that they had a lot to talk about. Abigail hoped Ava might finally give her the name of the person who knocked her out at the airstrip and got her kidnapped, as she might be able to use that to leverage a plea deal. Gwen asks if Ava told her what she wanted to know. Abigail claims that she did not and then asks Gwen what she’s doing at the police station on her wedding day.

Jack asks where Abigail and Gwen are. Xander says they are taking care of wedding business. Jennifer reminds Xander that he’s not supposed to see his bride on the wedding day. Xander brings up how Sarah insisted on that for their wedding and they know what happened to her. Jennifer mentions talking to Maggie. Xander feels like if he was with her that night, he could have protected her so he’s not fond of that superstition. Xander says he and Gwen feel they’ve already had enough bad luck and that finding each other is the beginning of a new life. Xander explains that the ceremony is tonight in the town square and that it’s a double wedding. Jennifer points out that is what she and Jack did, as she asks who the other bride and groom are. Xander reveals that Gwen is the only bride as a friend of hers is marrying his boyfriend so there will be three grooms.

Craig and Leo return to their room at the Salem Inn. Craig comments on Leo being quiet on the way over. Leo says that he was right that signing the pre-nup was the only way to get Chloe, Sonny, and everyone else to believe what they already know, that he’s marrying him not for his money but because he’s the love of his life, as they kiss.

Brady goes over the pre-nup and points out that Leo gets nothing if they break up. Chloe confirms that Leo read every word and still signed it because Craig convinced him to. Brady points out that at least Leo can’t screw Craig over. Chloe wonders if it’s possible that they were wrong and Leo wasn’t after Craig for his money, but is actually marrying him for love.

Craig suggests he and Leo get ready for their wedding. Leo mentions there is something he wants to talk to him about before the wedding. Leo informs him that he has a confession to make.

Gwen tells Abigail that she came to the police station to see her. Abigail points out that she seemed surprised to see her and questions her wearing a hat in April. Gwen claims she was trying to avoid frizzy hair on her wedding day. Gwen says she couldn’t find Abigail, so she called the Spectator and found out she was here covering a story. Gwen claims that she looked surprised because she didn’t know that Ava had been arrested. Abigail confirms that Ava has been charged with planting evidence against Rafe. Gwen asks if the charges have nothing to do with what happened to Abigail, which she confirms. Abigail continues to claim that Ava won’t give her the name of who knocked her out. Gwen suggests it was the pilot and that Ava is afraid of him. Gwen asks if they should go since Xander went to pick up Jack at the airport and she thinks he would love to see her and he’d be pleased that she’s standing up for her. Gwen asks if she’s ready. Abigail says the office is calling her so she’ll just meet her at the house. Gwen then exits the station while Abigail pretends to answer her phone. After Gwen leaves, Abigail goes back in to the interrogation room where Ava asks if she convinced Melinda to give her a deal because that’s the only way she is giving her the dirt on Gwen.

Craig tells Leo to tell him whatever it is. Leo says it’s about the guy that Gwen is going to marry. Leo informs Craig that his name is Xander Cook and he kind of tried to get him to go to bed with him.

Jack and Jennifer are shocked to learn that Craig Wesley is getting married and that he left Nancy for a man. Jennifer recognizes Leo as the guy that caused so many problems for Will and Sonny. Jennifer calls it poor judgment. Xander says he’s never even seen Craig but it turns out Leo and Gwen are old friends. Jennifer talks about never being crazy about Craig after he stole her brother’s job, but Nancy worshipped him so she must be devastated.

Nancy is outside the Brady Pub, on the phone with Bonnie, worrying about meeting the guy she met on the dating app. Nancy tells Bonnie that she’s going in now to face the music. Nancy hangs up and enters the Pub. Nancy then starts to turn around and leave but Clyde calls out to her. Clyde and Nancy introduce themselves. Nancy admits she’s a bit nervous as Clyde invites her to sit down. Clyde tells Nancy that she’s prettier in person. Nancy thanks him and calls him very handsome. Clyde thinks they are off to a pretty good start. Nancy hopes so as it’s her first date in a really long time. Clyde says he’s recently back on the market too. Nancy informs him that she just got divorced while Clyde reveals that he just got out of prison.

Brady tells Chloe that he doesn’t want to sound cynical but he doesn’t buy that Leo is actually in love with Craig because he doesn’t believe a guy like Leo changes his spots. Chloe asks why Leo signed the pre-nup then unless he plans on staying married to Craig long enough to spend all of his money. Brady supposes it’s possible. Chloe feels they thought of everything but nothing worked as it seems like Leo is always one step ahead. Chloe guesses that Leo is going to be her stepdad and there’s nothing she can do about it. Brady responds that actually maybe there is.

Craig asks if Leo is saying he cheated on him. Leo assures he would never do that and thought he made that clear with Chad. Leo clarifies that this was years ago, long before he met Craig, as he was a bit of a player back then. Craig asks what happened. Leo says nothing because Xander is straight. Craig asks if he wanted something to happen. Leo assures that when he meets Xander, he will understand why he wanted to get under his kilt.

Jennifer asks if Xander and Jack will be wearing kilts tonight. Xander says he decided to spare Jack that and they will be going with tuxedos. Xander adds that they better get going. Gwen arrives, thrilled to see Jack is there as they hug. Jack assures he wouldn’t miss her wedding for the world. Gwen wonders if Jack would walk her down the aisle to give her away. Jack would be honored as they hug. Xander adds that when it’s all over, Jack will be his father in law. Gwen declares that everything is so perfect..

Abigail informs Ava that Gwen just showed up at the police station, but she told her that Ava wouldn’t tell her who helped her kidnap her. Ava guesses that Gwen was on her way in here to talk her in to keeping her mouth shut. Ava asks what kept Abigail from giving her up. Abigail responds that she’s not tipping her off until Ava gives her the whole story. Ava says that depends on what Melinda said. Abigail responds that she’s interested but she needs more information, so Ava tells her to tell Melinda to come talk to her. Abigail tells Ava to just tell her the story and she’ll go back to her. Ava asks what else she needs. Abigail says that Ava made it clear that Gwen did a lot worse than that, so she wants the details. Ava asks if she’s certain that Melinda is willing to make a deal. Abigail says absolutely. Ava tells Abigail that if she gets her the deal, she will give her whatever she needs to bury her sister.

Jack says it’s good to see Xander and Gwen looking so happy. Xander reminds Jack that they have to get their tuxedos fitted so he’s not late for his own wedding. Xander kisses Gwen goodbye as he and Jack then exit. Gwen tells Jennifer that she’s very happy she’s going to be at the wedding tonight. Jennifer says she’s very happy that they have some time alone, because there is something she wants to say to her.

Clyde asks Nancy if him being an ex-con is a dealbreaker for her and says he would certainly understand if it is. Nancy says she was just taken back but it’s not a dealbreaker. Nancy says for over 30 years, she thought she was married to the perfect man but he cheated on her. Nancy talks about knowing something was wrong between them but he kept lying to her. Nancy points out that she just met Clyde and he’s been honest and open with her which she respects.

Brady reminds Chloe about how they overheard Leo talking to Jackie on the phone and explains that Sonny is pretty sure it was Jackie Cox, who might know if Leo is trying to scam Craig. Chloe asks how to find Jackie. Brady informs her that Sonny and Chad are on their way to New York right now to try to track her down. Chloe points out that the wedding is in a couple hours and this seems like a long shot. Brady says this may be the only shot they have.

Leo tells Craig that he doesn’t want any secrets between them, so he thought he better tell him that he’ll be sharing his wedding with a man he lusted after. Leo asks if Craig is mad. Craig says no and he appreciates him being honest with him as they hug. Leo says nobody has ever cared for him the way Craig does. Craig says he makes him happy and he loves him. Jack and Xander then show up at the door. Craig and Jack awkwardly greet one another. Leo questions Craig and Jack knowing each other. Craig asks what Jack is doing here. Xander explains that Jack is Gwen’s dad and also his best man. Craig admits he did not know that. Jack says that’s why he suggested they all share a drink together before the wedding. Craig informs Xander that he and Leo were just talking about him.

Gwen tells Jennifer that she knows she’s not her favorite person and for good reason. Gwen admits that when she came to Salem, she was terribly unhappy and took it all out on Jennifer and her family, especially Abigail. Gwen tells Jennifer that Abigail has managed to forgive her which means the world to her, because with her forgiveness and Xander’s love, she stopped becoming the person who did all those horrible things. Gwen adds that she was very angry and spiteful because she thought nobody was ever going to love her, but now she has Jack and Xander so for the first time, she feels like she has a family of her own. Gwen asks what Jennifer wanted to say. Jennifer says that Gwen has lived in the house, sees pictures of family everywhere, and probably figured family means everything to her and Jack. Jennifer tells Gwen that she wanted to say that Jack is really proud of the person she has become, and so is she. Jennifer then hugs Gwen as Abigail walks in and sees them. Gwen thanks Jennifer. Abigail then greets Jennifer, saying she didn’t know she was coming as they hug. Jennifer is relieved to see that she’s okay for herself. Jennifer brings up Abigail being Gwen’s matron of honor. Gwen can’t believe she’s getting married in a little while so she needs to get ready. Abigail offers to help. Gwen says she’ll let her know if she needs anything as she heads upstairs. Jennifer then asks Abigail what’s wrong. Abigail responds that she just learned some very interesting intel about Gwen.

Brady finishes a call with Chad and Sonny, informing them that Leo signed the pre-nup so it’s now all up to them. Brady tells Chloe that he hopes they find out soon if they find Jackie Cox. Chloe worries it won’t be soon enough to stop the wedding, so she has to go get ready for it. Brady reminds Chloe that she won’t be doing this alone. Chloe asks if he’s ready to go public. Brady wants the whole world to know that she is his girl as they kiss.

Xander, Jack, Leo, and Craig have a drink. Xander pours a second drink while Leo comments on Gwen being lucky. Craig guesses Jack has heard about he and Nancy. Jack confirms he has and asks how she’s holding up. Craig responds that Nancy is in a great deal of pain and he feels terrible about that, but he just couldn’t lie to her anymore or to himself. Craig calls Nancy an amazing lady, so he prays that she finds the right man to spend the next chapter of her life with…

Clyde tells Nancy that it’s hard enough to have her husband leave her but for another man. Nancy informs him that Craig is marrying the other man today and invited her to the wedding. Clyde remarks that he must have some nerve. Nancy reveals that she might go and that’s one of the reasons that she got on the dating app because she didn’t like the thought of going alone. Clyde then asks if she’s asking him to escort her to the wedding. Nancy asks if he feels used. Clyde says no but he doesn’t think she really wants him to take her to that. Clyde encourages that people aren’t going to look at her being alone and feel sorry for her. Clyde tells her to go to the wedding and hold her head up high, so people will see what he sees; a beautiful, strong woman who doesn’t need a man to make herself complete.

Chloe says she’d love for Brady to go with her to the wedding, but asks if he’s sure he’s ready for his daughter Rachel to find out about them. Brady says he hasn’t told her yet but she knows how Rachel feels about her. Chloe thinks Rachel just likes her as his friend. Brady assures that he’s talked to her about him and Kristen, so she knows they will never be a couple again. Brady calls it sad but Rachel said she didn’t want him to be lonely and she sees how happy Chloe makes him. Brady thinks Rachel will think it’s a good thing. Chloe asks if he’s sure. Brady says he is and they kiss.

Craig proposes a toast to Leo, the man who makes his heart sing and he will call his husband. Leo toasts to Craig as the bravest man he knows and his husband to be. Xander toasts to Gwen as being everything he loves in a woman. Jack toasts to Xander for standing up for Gwen and standing behind her, showing him how to see what he saw in her; a young woman who just wants to be loved and now she is by both of them. They all toast to love.

Abigail reveals to Jennifer that Gwen is the one who knocked her unconscious and is the reason she was kidnapped. Abigail adds that Gwen doesn’t know that she knows, so they have to keep it down. Jennifer complains that she just told Gwen how proud she is of her and worries about how devastated Jack will be by this. Jennifer asks why Gwen did this to Abigail. Abigail thinks she knows but doesn’t want to say until she knows for sure. Jennifer questions Abigail not confronting Gwen about this. Abigail tells her that Ava told her there is so much more to know about Gwen and she wants it all, so Ava is forcing her to broker a deal for her with the district attorney or she won’t talk. Jennifer asks if Gwen has any idea. Abigail explains that Gwen tracked her down at the police station because she didn’t want her talking to Ava, but she told her that Ava wouldn’t tell her anything. Abigail says she can’t have Gwen going to Ava and telling her not to talk. Jennifer asks if this whole change in character has been act this whole time. Abigail worries about if Gwen is planning something else. Jennifer urges her not to let Gwen do anything else to her. Abigail assures that she will protect herself but she can’t do this unless she knows the whole truth. Gwen comes back in and questions the whole truth about what. Abigail claims that she was just talking about a source for a story. Gwen apologizes for interrupting but says she can’t get the zipper on her dress, so Abigail agrees to go help her with it.

Nancy asks if Clyde is turning down going to the wedding because he’s just not interested and assures that he doesn’t have to let her down easy. Clyde says life is too short for fooling around so he wouldn’t waste their time if he wasn’t interested. Nancy says she already likes him. Clyde says he likes her too but that’s another reason to stay away from the wedding because he doesn’t want to deal with a bunch of other people on their first date, he will want her all to himself.

After Jack and Xander leave, Craig remarks to Leo that Xander is not all that and assures he only has eyes for him as they kiss. Xander then returns to the door in just a towel which takes Craig back. Xander explains that he was out of shampoo and asks if they had any extra. Leo goes and gets them as Craig small talks with Xander to avoid staring at him. Leo gives Xander the shampoo. Xander says he will see them at the wedding and walks away. Craig then agrees with Leo that Xander is all that as they both stare as he walks away.

Brady and Chloe kiss and decide they are going to the wedding together so they are officially a thing. Chloe says she has to go get ready. Brady invites her to his room since the wedding is hours away. They continue kissing until Brady gets a text from Sonny, saying he and Chad met with Jackie Cox, and they have something on Leo.

General Hospital Updates

GH logo

Update written by Dustin

At General Hospital, Liz informs Portia that there are notes missing from one of her exams and she needs the paperwork. Portia snaps at her and tells her she hasn’t finished them yet. She tells Liz to work with what she has until she has time to complete the notes. Liz says that she can’t complete her work without the notes and she has to finish the notes before she looks in on her own patients. LIz tells Portia it is not the nurse’s responsibility to get the doctor to finish their notes. After Portia snaps at her again, Liz

calms things down by taking Portia aside and Portia admits that she’s been so preoccupied about Trina’s case it has made her forgetful. She apologies to LIz. They discuss their mutual problems and how overwhelmed they are.

Liz admits that she has more problems than Cam and the video. She fills Portia in on the break-ins and the strange dream. Portia apologizes for not checking in on her before and then gets called away to see a patient.

Alexis speaks with Finn at addicts anonymous about Harmony and what a good friend she’s been. After inviting her to move in, however, she discovered that she’d been there before. Now she feels like she doesn’t know her at all.

They talk about his relationship with Liz. He fills Alexis in on the stalker and the fact that he basically comes and goes as he pleases in Liz’s home. Finn also tells her about Liz’s dream and the fact that they can’t seem to make heads or tails of it. Alexis suggests Liz make an appointment with Kevin. Maybe through hypnosis Kevin can help her to clarify what is going on.

Liz later bumps into Finn by the elevators. He urges her to speak to Kevin. Maybe he can help her remember something that could be useful. Liz is all for therapy but never thought of using it to try to clear up the dream. When she answers a phone, someone says, “Don’t forget me.” She’s terrified, but it’s just a patient requesting care. When Alexis gets to her office, she finds Valentin spinning around in her chair. They hug and catch up. He says he’s back and better than ever. She senses he wants something. Valentin thinks a media company in the family could be useful and his father agrees with him.Alexis warns that if Victor wants to get close to him, he’s not being paternal, it’s something else. She won’t let her paper be used by the family. Valentin reminds her that you can’t pick your family. “On the contrary, you have to,” she says.

Laura joins Robert, Felicia, and Anna at her place. They inform her that a suspect in Luke’s death has been arrested: Jennifer Smith. So far, there is no evidence that she was working with Victor. Laura doesn’t believe for a minute that Jennifer is smart or capable enough to pull something like the cable car accident along with the theft of the Ice Princess alone. She says the Cassadine family are definitely involved. All of this activity, plus his attempts to manipulate Drew means that Victor is up to something. Robert can think of a surefire way to find out and suggests that Anna use her relationship with Valentin.

Felicia tries to grill her about this “relationship,” so Anna changes the topic and reminds them of the man who was with Jennifer before she was arrested. Valentin shows up on Anna’s doorstep as Robert walks out. “Speak of the devil,” says Scorpio. Anna and Valentin are happy to see each other.

Brad and Britt have lunch outside. They discuss his job interview which Britt is initially hesitant to discuss. Brad senses that she is avoiding the topic and asks Britt what is going on. He wants to know if Terry is having second thoughts about hiring him. Britt says that it is not that. But, flashing back in her mind to Selina threatening to send Britt to prison if she did not do her bidding. Britt asks Brad why he would want to work as orderly? She suggests he work somewhere else other than General Hospital. Brad says that he is open to other things and says that the one thing he wants is for both he and Britt to be living their best lives. Immediately bringing down the mood of the moment, Selina appears and insists she has a job for Brad and that he come with her immediately.

On the docks, Curtis runs into Jordan, they have a brief conversation and catch up but Jordan doesn’t tarry long, she has a lot to do. When Jordan leaves, Selina appears and says she “thought she would never leave.” Her people accessed police files and discovered that Marshall was never in witness protection. He won’t get the records she has found until he holds up his side of their bargain.

Jordan drops by the hospital to check on Portia. The women immediately begin arguing about the Trina situation. Jordan tells Portia she is doing everything she can do for Trina. But, Portia quickly reminds her that Jordan has always been willing to go outside the law for her family. Jordan reminds Portia how much trouble that has caused her in the past. Portia accuses her of making the case personal. Curtis arrives and spots them together.

Harmony flashes back to Brendan blackmailing her as she tries to break into his room at the Metro Court. A maid finds her and asks if she’s a guest. Harmony says that she is and is just having trouble locating her key. She locates the key and goes into Brendan’s room. She quickly locates her psychiatrist assessment and other files related to her. She then goes down to the bar, she orders a double, and the bartender asks her if it’s been a hard day. She says, “ you have no idea.” Harmony flashes back to her confrontation with Brendan and him going over the cliff. Willow pops up and finds her looking flushed. Sitting down, Willow admits she’s a bit under the weather. Harmony promises to be there for her as long as she can be. “Are you going somewhere?” asks Willow. She really appreciates how hard she has been working to rebuild their relationship. Tearing up, Harmony tells her how much that means. Taking her hand, Willow assures her that their past doesn’t have to keep hanging over them. Harmony says that no matter how hard she keeps trying, the past keeps coming after her. Willow asks if this has something to do with Brendan. Harmony is shocked that Willow recalls his name and tells her that whatever she has done she has done for Willow.

Alexis is horrified when she is walking on the pier and finds Brendan floating in the water.

Young & The Restless Transcript

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Adam: If they won’t budge on the price, then walk away. Right, right, right. Well, get on it.

Victor: Where do things stand with locke?

Adam: [ Exhales sharply ] Our conversation couldn’t have gone better. He agreed to surrender control of the company.

Victor: I’ll be damned. Hmm. What about victoria?

Adam: He agreed to the annulment and that he’s gonna walk away from newman/locke. He is actually on his way over here right now to sign the agreement.

Victor: Well, so the end is in sight.

Adam: Uh-huh. Money talks. Locke will soon be out of our lives, out of the company and victoria’s life, so it’s the best possible outcome.

Victor: I still don’t like the way you handled this whole thing. It was very impulsive. Could have backfired.

Adam: It worked, didn’t it? I achieved the objective.

Victor: You will have achieved the objective once he signs.

Adam: It was the cleanest, most straight-forward way to tackle the problem. No tricks, no games — it was just cold, hard cash in exchange to get this jerk to take a hike.

Victor: Hmm. So you want me to believe that you did this for the good of the family, just to show your loyalty, right?

Adam: That’s exactly why i did it.

Victor: I know why you did it. You wanted to prove that you were smarter and more capable than your sister.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] You’re really doing this?

Ashland: Adam is waiting for me in his office right now to sign the paperwork.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] It’s just — you know, it’s a little overwhelming how quickly it all went down.

Ashland: Yeah. Well, adam and your father gave me 500 million reasons to walk away. From our combined company, from our “official” marriage. As long as I have your assurance that you’re on board with me.

Victoria: Ashland, I told you —

Ashland: Tell me again. I need to know if you’re really willing and ready to walk away from everything you have here, from your family, from this company, from your home here in genoa city. And build a new future with me someplace far away.

Victoria: [ Sighs ] The farther away, the better, as far as I’m concerned. After everything that has happened, you know, I could just — I could really use a fresh start.

Ashland: Well, that brings me to the hardest question of all. What about your children?

Jack: That is wonderful news. No, absolutely. If anything changes, you give me a call. I love you too, son. Bye. That was kyle. Summer can’t get away from marchetti, but kyle managed to clear his schedule and he and harrison will be flying in next week.

Traci: So the clock is ticking.

Jack: Yeah, as excited as i am about their visit, I am also dreading what comes with it.

Traci: [ Sighs ] Diane and all of her endless drama.

Jack: I get to sit with my son and blind-side him with the news that his mother is alive.

[ Knock on door ]

Phyllis: Please don’t make me play this game with you, “taylor.” Let me in. I have a master key. Please don’t make me use it.

Diane: [ Sighs ]

[ Exhales sharply ] Phyllis, wow, what a surprise.

Phyllis: Stop. Seriously? You didn’t think I was gonna figure out your alias when you checked in to my hotel? Hi, I’m karen.

Ashland: It’s because I love you so much that I’m asking you this question now. If you’re really ready to cut ties with everyone…I don’t want you to have any regrets. We both have to be sure about what that means. For instance, I would love to take a more active role in harrison’s life, but I know the newmans and the abbotts would join forces to keep me from doing that in the same way you need to think about billy.

Victoria: What about billy?

Ashland: It’s clear, isn’t it? He’s gonna hate the fact that you’re running away with me. And I’m pretty sure he’s gonna try to keep you from his kids.

Victoria: You know, I have been thinking about the impact that this would have on the children, and I actually think that I can — I can — I can reason with billy. I mean [Sighs] He’s not going to keep johnny and katie away from their mother.

Ashland: Are you sure about that?

Victoria: When it comes to determining what is best for the kids, I know that billy usually does the right thing. And depending on where we end up living, we’ll just have to come up with some kind of an arrangement.

Ashland: I’m not sure that’s going to be possible.

Victoria: Why would you say it like that?

Ashland: Because your ex can be vindictive. He’s proved it over and over again.

Victoria: Oh. I know, but…billy is a totally different person now. As ironic as that sounds, as much as he’ll hate to see me doing this with you, I think he’ll take great satisfaction in me finally walking away from my father. He despises him more than anyone, even adam. You’re not even a close third when it comes to the two.

Ashland: Are you really willing to take that risk?

Traci: Jack, I am so sorry you’ve been put in this position.

Jack: Oh, thanks. So am I.

Traci: But you’re doing the right thing. Kyle has to know the truth, and better it come from you where you can at least sort of prepare him. Although, god, how do you prepare a kid to learn that his mother skipped town to save her own skin and let him and everybody else believe she was dead?

Jack: Yeah, I don’t think we can count on diane to show much finesse. She’s been so callous about kyle’s emotions ever since her “death.”

Traci: Okay, I’ve been thinking a lot about the timing on this, jack. Why reveal herself now?

Jack: Oh, there is a reason, rest assured. Diane has a plan. And I am going to make it my life’s mission to figure out exactly what it is.

Diane: Your hotel? My, my, how things do change.

Phyllis: Stop the act. You know this is my hotel. You know that. That’s why you made a beeline for it when you landed.

Diane: You’re right. I won’t insult your intelligence that way. What I mean is it would be a pointless lie since I know very well what you’ve been up to since I’ve been away.

Phyllis: Oh, do you?

Diane: Mm-hmm.

Phyllis: Oh, is that so?

Diane: I’ve followed the lives of a lot of people in genoa city, not just jack and kyle.

Phyllis: Oh, my goodness, listen to you. And I’m on the short list. I’m so lucky.

Diane: You’re running with the big dogs now.

[ Chuckles ] Congratulations, phyllis. It’s a beautiful hotel. And you fought hard to make this a success. Your success. You know, I’m really quite impressed given —

Phyllis: Okay, cut. Cut the act.& Alright, did you follow me and jack from la? Is that what you did?

Diane: Don’t be absurd.

Phyllis: Do you have any idea the hell that’s gonna rain down on you if anyone knows you’re here, diane?

Diane: [ Sighs ] I just — I just wanted to be here, prepared, for once jack tells kyle that I’m alive.

Phyllis: Prepare for what? What are you preparing for?

[ Chuckles ] Honestly, how do you see this playing out? For copd,

Diane: I’ve played it out in my head so many times, you know, seeing kyle again, being reunited with my son.

Phyllis: Okay, well, don’t bet on that happening, and don’t get too comfortable here if you know what’s good for you.

Diane: Is that a threat?

Phyllis: No, just advice. Listen, jack’s hoping — I’m betting — that when kyle finds out that you’re actually not dead, he’s not gonna want to have anything to do with you.

Diane: Gee, thanks.

Phyllis: I think you wasted a trip, diane. Sorry. But on the off chance kyle wants to meet with you, I’m gonna have to ask you not to do that in my hotel. I don’t want the fireworks here. Can you just check in to the athletic club, please?

Diane: [ Chuckles ] Are you throwing me out?

Phyllis: Nothing I would like to do more than to throw you out, that’s for sure.

Diane: Oh, then what’s stopping you?

Phyllis: You know what’s stopping me? If I throw you out, then you get to play the victim, and I’m not gonna let you do that this time. You know what I’m gonna do instead? I’m gonna take your money and I’m gonna ignore you, diane.

Diane: [ Scoffs ] Wow. Wow, you really have a knack for this hospitality thing. No — no, really, phyllis, it’s a gift.

Phyllis: If you create any trouble, I’m throwing you out on your butt.

Diane: Fair enough. But you don’t need to worry. I’ll behave.

Phyllis: I hope so.

Diane: Phyllis [Scoffs] I know it’s going to be very hard for you to accept that I’ve changed.

Phyllis: Oh, please, diane. I know you. You haven’t changed. I’m gonna give you a piece of advice. If people in this town that you’re actually alive and that you had the audacity to come back here, it’s not me you should be worried about. Things will get ugly in a real hurry.

Adam: I’m sorry that you think that of me. That I was purely acting out of selfishness.

Victor: Son, you said in so many words that you thought this was victoria’s fault. That she fell for a con man, therefore she should be stripped of her title. In favor of you.

Adam: Do I think that I’m a better leader than victoria? Hell yes. Because it happens to be true. But the approach that I took with ashland, it wasn’t about proving it to you or to anyone else.

Victor: So you weren’t out to impress me.

Adam: Well, to the extent that you were impressed, that pleases me. Yeah, I won’t deny it. I solved a problem that threatened everything that you have built your entire life. But the goal was to get ashland out, and it benefited the whole family. So whatever happens moving forward, I think we’re all better off for it, myself included. I’d say that’s a win all around.

Victor: I remember when you were a little boy on the farm in kansas. I taught you how to play soccer. Look at you now. You do impress me. But you’ve cost me a hell of a lot of money.

Adam: Well, it’s money, um, well spent. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Let’s finalize this. Until we get ashland’s signature on the agreement, um, I don’t want anything to get messed up, since we’re this close to getting rid of that bastard.

Victor: I’m proud of you.

Victoria: Since the moment we got together, billy has been meddling in our lives. He’s been digging into your past, almost to the point of obsession, and bringing gaines to tuscany to stop our wedding.

Ashland: But see, that’s exactly why I think he’s gonna be so hard on you. He will see the two of us choosing to run away together as proof that he was right to oppose our marriage.

Victoria: I actually think that it will be the opposite. Look, you said that you thought billy was still in love with me secretly and that that was his motivation, but you’re so wrong about that. Billy just doesn’t want to see me hurt again the way that he hurt me, and he wants to see me with some peace in my life. The kind of peace that he was never able to give me. I know it’s not gonna be easy for him to admit, but when he looks into my eyes, the way that you’re looking into them right now, he’s gonna see how much i love you. I love you so much, even after everything that’s happened. And…he’s not gonna be able to fight that.

Ashland: [ Chuckles ] So this really is a yes.

Victoria: I’m ready.

Ashland: [ Chuckles ] Okay. Okay, the world is ours. Where do you want to go?

[ Chuckles ]

Victoria: Tuscany.

Ashland: Of course.

Victoria: I mean, we own the palazzo.

Ashland: Yeah.

Victoria: It’s just so magical there. We had so many beautiful memories there.

Ashland: Okay. Tuscany it is.

Victoria: So go on, go take care of things with adam. I’ll be waiting here for you.

Ashland: Okay. And when I get back, we will start our new life together.

If you have medicare

and medicaid,

Diane: Thank you for reminding me how hated I am in this town.

Phyllis: No charge.

Diane: [ Huffs ] For the record, it’s incredibly difficult for me being back here.

Phyllis: Oh, come on, diane, please. When have you cared about what anyone thinks of you? I am actually interested in one thing.

Diane: What?

Phyllis: How’d you survive after all these years? I mean, you took on an alias and invested in therapy apparently. But how’d you pay your bills?

Diane: Well, uh, once I felt steady enough to venture out again, that I was confident my escape plan had worked, that nobody was going to come looking for me…

Jack: I have been doing some investigating into “taylor jenson’s” life in los angeles over the past few years, trying to come up with clues, something that’s gonna lead me to what diane is after.

Traci: And what did you find?

Jack: For starters, she tried to resume her career…

Diane: As an architect. But it was more competitive and difficult in los angeles. I couldn’t draw on the success of diane jenkins.

Phyllis: That’s one of the downfalls of faking your own death.

Diane: Well, my savings started to dwindle, and I was forced to take whatever job i could find. I — I started working in a real-estate office and answered phones, and pretty soon i learned the ropes and I got my realtor’s license.

Phyllis: It’s hard to picture you hustling, like the rest of us mortals. Even if it was in beverly hills.

Diane: It wasn’t as glamorous as one might think.

Phyllis: Oh, was it not?

Diane: No, I didn’t sell mansions to celebrities. It was small, postwar valley homes.

Jack: Taylor jenson had a modestly successful career as a residential real-estate agent. Hardly the life that diane was accustomed to.

Traci: Well, I suppose if you’re technically dead, it’s best to keep a low profile.

Jack: Yeah, when you’re keeping an eye on all the dollars, it kind of wears on someone as grasping and entitled as diane. My biggest worry right now is she’s gonna try to convince kyle to support her.

Traci: Well, that wouldn’t surprise me a bit. But either way, it’s gonna be kyle’s decision.

Diane: I kept my head down and made an honest living, and little by little, year by year, I made a life for myself in california.

Phyllis: Planning and plotting for the day when you could come back to genoa city and explode into our life again. Wreaking havoc on jack and everyone around him.

Diane: Phyllis —

Phyllis: I’m calling it like I see it. And then keemo’s house went on the market after he died, and you made a beeline for it because you found out that the owner was jack’s granddaughter allie, and you took advantage of a young woman grieving the loss of her father and you misrepresented yourself as a lovely woman…just there to hold her hand, right? Capitalizing on her grief and confusion.

Diane: Just stop. That is not how it happened. You’re just twisting everything around.

Phyllis: Am I? Am I really? See, I know who you are, and i don’t trust a word that comes out of your mouth, diane. And nothing you say or do is ever gonna change that.

Traci: So I guess we just focus on the positive — kyle will be coming to genoa city to spend some time, and he’s bringing that adorable harrison. I’m sure you’re excited about that, right?

Jack: Yes, I am, and I am hoping to convince allie to come out while they’re here. It seems like the perfect opportunity to meet her whole new family.

Traci: Jack, are you sure that’s a good idea?

Victor: Hello, ashland.

Adam: We’ve been expecting you.

Ashland: Hmm. Well, I don’t want to spend any more time here with you than I’m sure you want to spend with me, so let’s get to it, yes.

Adam: [ Clears throat ] Here’s the document. Pretty straightforward. You sign on page three. Which states for $500 million us, you agree to relinquish all ownership and control of newman/locke as well as agree to an annulment of your marriage to victoria.

Ashland: As if I never existed. But then that is the goal, isn’t it? To erase me from newman/locke and from victoria’s life.

Victor: Once you sign, we’ll transfer the funds.

Ashland: Hmm. Two unreadable faces. Well done, gentlemen. But I know that inside both of you must be salivating right now. Scarcely able to believe that i would make it this easy for you. Better skin from your body wash?

“The young and the restless”

will continue.

Jack: Why wouldn’t I want to invite allie here while kyle and harrison are visiting from milan? That never happens. She gets to meet you, ashley, billy.

Traci: Naturally, you want your granddaughter to meet her new family as soon as possible. I’m your biggest supporter. I support that wholeheartedly, jack.

Jack: Yeah, you lobbied for it the last time we talked.

Traci: But that was before i knew about diane. And do you really think that you can welcome her —

Jack: Allie has met diane, and she has been appropriately warned.

Traci: But that doesn’t mean it’s gonna go smoothly. Or that the explosion is gonna be short-lived. Ah. If the goal is to ease allie into the meeting her new family for the first time, do you really think that it’s such a good idea to bring her into such a volatile mix?

Jack: You’re right. You’re right. Telling kyle the news about diane is enough.

[ Doorbell rings ] I’ll get it. Hey.

Phyllis: Sorry I didn’t call first.

Jack: That’s okay. What’s wrong?

Phyllis: You want the bad news or the worse news?

Jack: Um, whatever the news is, tell me.

Phyllis: [ Sighs ] Diane is here in genoa city. Staying at my hotel.

Adam: I’m sure you’ll find everything in order. The agreement exactly as we discussed. As my father, we are prepared to do our part immediately after you sign.

Victor: $500 million to the account you specified.

Ashland: Okay.

[ Clears throat ] Initial page one. Sign page three.

Victor: Alright, it’s done. The money has been transferred. You’re out of our lives.

Ashland: Don’t assume you’re speaking for your entire family, victor. Your daughter —

Victor: Spare me.

Nikki: Is it a bad time?

Victoria: No.

[ Sighs ] I mean, yes, but…I’m glad you’re here. Maybe you can help calm me down.

Nikki: I hear that ashland has agreed to adam’s plan to pay him off.

Victoria: From dad, I assume.

Nikki: Is it true?

Victoria: Yes. But he has one condition.

Nikki: [ Sighs ] What is the condition?

Victoria: Once ashland signs away control of the company and gets the money, he wants me to break all ties with the family and go away with him.

Nikki: What?!

Victoria: He’ll agree to the annulment, mother, if — if i stay with him.

Nikki: Well, you didn’t agree to that, did you?

Victoria: Well, of course i did. What other way was I going to get him out of newman and out of our family’s lives? It’s what you all wanted, wasn’t it?

Nikki: What do you want? That was just a ploy on your part, right?

Victoria: Right now ashland is signing away his entire life. Everything that he’s built, everything that…that we’ve built.

Nikki: Honey, you don’t owe him anything. Not after all of his lies and the way he used you. There is nothing binding you to that agreement. It was just words. Unless… please don’t tell me you want to stay with him.

Jack: This is just the kind of stunt diane would pull — showing up incognito so that when kyle arrives, she can pounce on him for god knows what reason.

Phyllis: Well, whatever the reason is, we are not gonna like it.

Jack: How did she seem?

Phyllis: I don’t know. She went on and on about how she was trying to rebuild her life in the last 10 years, and she wants to mend fences with her son.

Jack: Yeah, sticking to her story like the skilled liar she is.

Phyllis: You know, I said a couple things to her, started baiting her, see if she would lash out at me. She didn’t go there.

Jack: So you believed her?

Phyllis: Well, she was convincing. She puts on one of the best sincere acts I’ve ever seen.

Jack: Wait, then you’re buying it.

Phyllis: No. Not for a minute.

Jack: I don’t like that she’s even close. I heard from kyle that he and harrison are coming in soon.

Phyllis: Yeah, summer called me on my way over here.

Jack: So how do I keep diane away from kyle before I can talk to him?

Phyllis: You don’t have to worry about that. I’ll do that for you. That’s what I’m for. I mean, you have enough on your plate, telling kyle the truth and how he’s gonna react when he finds out that his mother’s still alive.

Jack: I want you to know i appreciate you dropping everything and trying to help me through all this. I mean it, you have consistently been there for me.

Phyllis: I’m happy to do it. I really am. Just so you know, I’m also protecting my daughter, ’cause whatever happens to kyle affects her. So not only am I in “best friend” mode, but I’m in “mama bear” mode. And make no mistake, this is personal for me.

Diane: [ Sighs ] Hmm. “The business world is speculating about recent moves at newman/locke, where chairman emeritus victor newman has abruptly installed his son, adam newman, as temporary ceo.”

[ Chuckles ] Victor’s at it again. Pulling strings, keeping everyone guessing. “Adam newman seen at society with his recently-appointed coo, sally spectra, appearing to mix pleasure with business. Future power couple in the making?”

[ Chuckles ] “Nikki newman to chair arts foundation gala for 10th consecutive year. Her organizational talent par excellence, tireless dedication to worthy causes –” blah, blah, blah, blah. “Mrs. Newman is a bright light in our community, and a powerful voice. A force to be reckoned with.”

[ Sighs ]

Nikki: I’ve been so worried about you, being under all this pressure. And I-I know your feelings for ashland are still strong. Despite everything he’s done, he still has a hold on your heart.

Victoria: Mom, I know. I know I shouldn’t be so confused and conflicted. But [Sighs] God help me, I am. And you’re right, this has been really, really hard. All of the pretending and lying to his face and the hate that I feel for him for what he’s done to me and the family. While at the same time…I feel like I’m grieving the loss of — of my marriage and — and the man that I thought was my soulmate.

Nikki: Well…you must have put on the performance of a lifetime to get him to agree to this deal.

Victoria: Do you know why i was able to pull it off, mom? Because…those feelings are still there for me to draw from. And even though I’ve slowly been putting the screws to him… I just have reconciled it at all in my heart or in my mind. After everything that ashland and I have been through and everything that we’ve shared, I mean, ashland’s love for me, it just — it seemed so powerful and real. I mean, could it have all been fake this whole time?

Nikki: Yes, because he is a sociopath. He knows all the right words to say, put on the perfect act, while feeling nothing except for some sick satisfaction that he was able to dupe us. Darling, don’t be ashamed that you thought it was genuine. We all did. This isn’t your fault. Do you understand, baby? It’s not your fault.

Victoria: I know that, mom. I’m not blaming myself. I just don’t know what to do with all of this love that i have in my heart.

[ Voice breaking ] Where does it go?

[ Sobbing ]

Nikki: In time, it will fade. And then you will heal. And you have your entire family to help you, baby, don’t worry. I know.

Victor: You wanted to be treated as an equal — a man worthy of having his name side-by-side with mine. But you couldn’t do it through grit and hard work. You did it by taking advantage of my daughter’s feelings and by taking advantage of this family’s generosity, by claiming to be terminally ill. That, my man, is sick.

Ashland: You may find this hard to believe, victor [Sighs] But I still admire the hell out of you. I really do. Your devotion to your family. Your commitment to your empire. You’re a shining example for all of us.

Adam: Look, now that everything’s finalized, you should — you should leave.

Ashland: One more thing. My love for your daughter has not changed, even in this moment. She is a remarkable woman, an independent woman, and no matter what, you should be proud of her.

Victor: Get him the hell out of here.

Adam: [ Sighs ] We hit the bike trails every weekend

Diane: [ Sighs ] Was coming here a mistake? Can I really pull this off? If I — if I reconnect with kyle and it goes well, then what? Ugh! Why didn’t I think this through before I left la?

[ Knock on door ]

[ Sighs ] Damn it, phyllis. Now what? Why can’t you just leave me alone?

Jack: What the hell do you think you’re doing?

Adam: I’m glad you got that off your chest. Told him what we all think about him. But let’s not waste any more brain space on ashland locke, okay? It’s over. We won.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Victoria: [ Sighs ]

Ashland: Alright, I just met with victor and adam. It’s done. I see no reason to stay here one minute longer. You ready to go?

Victoria: Did you really think that I would run away with you after everything you put me through? Did you really believe this wasn’t the absolute end for us?

Brad: [ Chuckles ]

Britt: Hmm. Oh, look. Carbs, sugar, and sugar.

Brad: What? We need energy.

Britt: Isn’t this a bit overboard? Hey, it’s not every day I get to help my bestie find the love of her life. Pull up those matches, and let’s ogle some men.

Anna: Oh, thank you so much for coming by on such short notice.

Laura: Happy to do it. It actually gives Jake and Aiden some guy time with Grandpa Kevin, so…

Anna: Oh, that’s sweet. Yeah. Come on in, please.

Felicia: Hi, Laura.

Laura: Hi.

Robert: Laura.

Laura: Hi.

Anna: Hi. So…Felicia and I, we just got back from Tahiti, and we had some information that we wanted to share with you both.

Felicia: It’s a lead on the Ice Princess.

Anna: Did you find the diamond? We did, and, uh, you both should know that a suspect has been arrested in regards to Luke’s murder.

Elizabeth: Dr. Robinson? Dr. Robinson.

Portia: Yes. Yes, yes. I’m sorry.

Elizabeth: We have a problem.

Brendon: My brother, Neil, kept your file in a lockbox, probably wondering whether he should turn you in to the cops. When Neil died, I inherited that lockbox, and I had no idea that I would stumble across all of that incriminating information — such as your daughter, Willow, isn’t actually your daughter.

Maid: Excuse me. Can I help you?

Harmony: Hey. I’m — I was just looking —

Maid: Are you a guest here?

Alexis: Sorry I didn’t get a chance to say hi earlier.

Finn: What? Oh, that’s okay.

Alexis: Your understanding is very moving. I would have been here on time, but I-I got held up at work.

Finn: Trouble in the Fourth Estate?

Alexis: A pushy freelancer.

Finn: Care to share?

Selina: I’ll begin arrangements for the first game.

Curtis: No.

Selina: Mr. Ashford, I’ve been more than fair.

Curtis: My last term is non-negotiable. There will be no games unless I get the information that I asked you for.

Selina: Then we have a deal.

Curtis: Jordan.

Harmony: Yes. Yeah. I just checked in, so… I hope I haven’t lost my key. [ Chuckles ] Ah. There. Found it.

Maid: Enjoy your stay.

Harmony: Thank you.

[ Lock beeps ]

Alexis: So, I invited Harmony to live with me.

Finn: Oh. Well, how did, uh — how did Kristina take that?

Alexis: Better than Sam.

Finn: Ah. Oh. Ow.

Alexis: You know she’s been a really good friend to me, right, at Spring Ridge, and she’s having a really hard time, so I wanted to help her out.

Finn: Well, helping a friend is one thing. Letting them move in, that’s a…

Alexis: Just temporary — until she finds a place of her own.

Finn: Seems reasonable.

Alexis: So I thought. And it turns out that she has more than a passing familiarity with my house.

Finn: What?

Alexis: Yeah. She apparently has been there before. Knew her way around. When she was trying to recruit Kristina with that whole dawn of day thing.

Finn: Ah.

Alexis: After all the time I spent with her at Spring Ridge, I really thought that I knew her. And now that she’s living in my house, I don’t feel like I know her at all.

Robert: So, who was it?

Anna: They arrested Jennifer smith.

Robert: Jennifer smith killed Luke?

Anna: All right. Just hear me out, please. Because it is possible, actually. Not only was the diamond found in her safe, but the WSB has information connecting her to the cable-car inspector who caused the accident that killed Luke.

Robert: So why would Jennifer kill Luke?

Felicia: Well, it was no secret that Jennifer still carried a torch for Luke. We were thinking that she stole the Ice Princess to lure him back to her. Unfortunately, her scheme went south… and he was killed in the process.

Robert: So, is she working with Victor?

Anna: Well, as of now — all right? — As of now, there’s no evidence suggesting that she was.

Robert: So with all the evidence collected over all these months, do we really believe that we have justice for our friend?

Brad: So, obviously, the duckpin bowler is out.

Britt: Obviously. Too bad, though. He’s pretty.

[ Laughs ]

Brad: Yeah. But he’s way too proud of those pins. Swipe! Ah. Number two’s got a nice jawline.

Britt: [ Sighs ] Pet cat. My mother says that’s a sign of weakness.

Brad: You showed these to your mother?

Britt: She was excited to help. Unfortunately, she has different criteria than I do.

Brad: Clearly. Though I suppose one could do worse than Scotty Baldwin.

Britt: Given her history, he is somehow a step up.

Brad: [ Exhales deeply ] Okay. Number three. Ah. He seems adventurous. Danger’s sexy, right?

Britt: Why? ‘Cause he likes to go skydiving and mountain climbing? Those are all outdoor activities, Brad.

Brad: Okay. Sorry. I thought Jason had opened you up to more adventurous things.

Britt: Yeah — like crossing international borders with falsified documents, not whatever that is.

Brad: Mm. It’s called, uh, spelunking.

Britt: Sounds like something you would do in private.

Brad: [ Sighs ] Should we keep doing this? I mean, anyone’s gonna be boring after a killer for hire.

Britt: Jason was not a hired killer.

Brad: Right. That was his steady job. Okay. How about we approach it like this? What exactly is your selection criteria? ‘Cause you’ve got six perfectly good matches here, and you clearly aren’t into any of them. Do you even want to meet someone?

Elizabeth: I’m missing your note from Mr. Clark’s exam yesterday.

Portia: Um, I’m sorry. I-I didn’t get a chance to, um, do that before I left. Um, the pertinent notes from the physical exam are in there, and everything else is the same as it was the day before.

Elizabeth: Yeah, I see that, but I need the notes from yesterday so that I can properly fill out the discharge paperwork.

Portia: And I will do that later. Just do what you can with what you have. Please.

Elizabeth: I can’t.

Portia: Mr. Clark is not critical, obviously, which is why he’s being discharged. Elizabeth, you have everything you need. Maybe you could just help me out a little bit here.

Elizabeth: I have my own work I need to do. I have my own patients that I need to see. It is not the nurse’s job to make sure the doctors turn in their exam notes.

Jordan: We have to stop running into each other like this. How are you?

Curtis: I’m good. You?

Jordan: Still here, so… can’t complain. How are things at home?

Curtis: Those damn reporters, they’re hounding Trina.

Jordan: Do you need the police to step in?

Curtis: We’re handling it.

Jordan: Okay. Well, let me know.

Curtis: Yeah.

Jordan: I just came from Spoon Island.

Curtis: Oh, um, you did, huh?

Jordan: Yeah. Spencer and Esme gave Detective Lopez their statements regarding Joss and Cam’s leaked sex tape. I thought I’d follow up in person. Follow up with both of them… or one in particular?

Esme Prince’s name has come up numerous times throughout this investigation, but I’m just gathering more information to fill out the case.

Curtis: How’s that going?

Jordan: Unfortunately, the staff made it clear that spencer and Esme wouldn’t speak to me without a lawyer, so I’ll have to try again some other time.

Curtis: You’re the police commissioner. Couldn’t you have a detective go out to Spoon Island?

Jordan: You know me. I like to get elbow-deep in a case every now and then. Reminds me of why I became a cop.

Curtis: To make sure justice is served.

Jordan: If I’ve learned anything from my past mistakes, it’s that you can’t have justice without the truth.

Curtis: In that case, Port Charles is lucky to have you as its commissioner.

Britt: It’s not that I don’t want to meet someone.

Brad: That was enthusiastic.

Britt: It’s — it’s just — it’s — it’s very overwhelming. I mean, what? I go from zero men to six? Why do I need that many matches?

Brad: You don’t have to date all of them at once.

Britt: My point is one man is enough trouble.

Brad: Wish I had that trouble.

Britt: Okay. Then let’s find you someone. What are you doing tonight?

Brad: Uh, watching Scandinavian murder dramas without subtitles to see if I can still follow the story and crying. Why?

Britt: [ Exhales sharply ] We’re going to the savoy. I’ll be your wing woman.

Brad: Eh, I don’t know. My chances might be better if I had, like, a job. Hey, speaking of which, have you heard from Terry about me working G.H.?

Britt: I really — I haven’t seen her much lately.

Brad: You’re co-Chiefs of Staff.

Britt: No. I mean, I’ve — I’ve seen her. But we just have other matters to discuss.

Brad: More important than helping your bestie get a job?

Britt: I put in a good word for you. I got you the meeting. I can’t do much else.

Brad: [ Sighs ] I know. You’re right. You’ve done a lot for me — more than I deserve — and I’m grateful. I just haven’t heard anything. I mean, if the answer’s no, then just tell me.

Britt: Well, no news is no news, Brad. And, you know, Terry puts a lot of thought into things like this.

Brad: How complicated is hiring an orderly?

Britt: When the orderly is you? [ Chuckles ]

Brad: Is that really it? Or is there something you’re not telling me?

Finn: So, about this Harmony business. Would you like some advice or just want me to listen?

Alexis: I really just want you to listen.

[ Laughing ]

Finn: That’s what I thought. Well, I’m here if you need me.

Alexis: So, what about you? How are things with Elizabeth?

Finn: Oh. Uh…complicated. My very presence in her life may be causing problems.

Alexis: How so?

Finn: Well, speaking of having an unwanted presence in one’s home…

Portia: Very succinctly put, Nurse Baldwin. I’ll do it right now. Is there anything else?

Elizabeth: Portia… can we — come here. Look, I didn’t mean to come down on you.

Portia: No. You know what? You’re right. I am not doing my job properly.

Elizabeth: You’ve got a lot going on. It’s not like anyone got hurt.

Portia: And I didn’t run out of time to do my notes. Elizabeth, I forgot. I’ve been so preoccupied with everything that’s going on with Trina. [ Sniffs ] It slipped my mind. I’m forgetting things.

Elizabeth: I understand. Y-you’ve — you’ve — you’re going through a lot.

Portia: And you are too. I-I… how are you holding up with everything?

Elizabeth: I’m overwhelmed. I’m exhausted. On top of everything else that’s going on at home, I’m working extra shifts.

Portia: When you say “what’s going on at home,” you mean this mess with Cam, Joss, and the video?

Elizabeth: Among other things.

Finn: Dante’s trying to figure out who’s stalking Elizabeth, but so far, no luck. Jake and Aiden, they’re staying at. Meanwhile, the PCPD, they’ve got patrol cars watching the house. And all of this has taken an incredible toll on Elizabeth.

Alexis: I can only imagine. How are you dealing with this?

Finn: I feel a little helpless. It’s been hard on her, hard on me, hard on the relationship. I mean, I’m not going anywhere. I’m gonna be there for her, even though she likes to handle everything herself. Just I’m afraid I’m the reason that things are getting worse. Feel free to disagree with me or make a suggestion at any time.

Alexis: Kevin?

Finn: Kevin? What does that mean? Oh. Collins?

Alexis: Yeah. Psychiatrist. He helped me. He’s good. And maybe he can help her clarify her perception of that moment.

Harmony: Okay. [ Exhales deeply ]

Robert: Something kind of ironic about Luke dying at the hands of a scorned woman.

Laura: Jennifer had been obsessed with him for decades.

Felicia: Yeah, not to mention she had the nerve to show up at Luke’s memorial service.

Laura: Yeah, except that when I talked to her there that day, it seemed to me that she was genuinely grieving.

Anna: A-and she vehemently protested her innocence. She insisted that she was framed because she said she would never have done this. She loved Luke.

Laura: Yeah. This just doesn’t make any sense to me. You know, if she wanted to get to Luke, why did she need to use the Ice Princess to do that? And then to rig a cable-car accident that would kill a lot of innocent people — I-I’m sorry. That’s just not in Jennifer smith’s league. If you ask me, that’s a Cassadine move.

Anna: Well, exactly, because we had our doubts that Jennifer could possibly be behind Luke’s death.

Laura: No. It has to be Victor.

Anna: Agreed. But unfortunately, we can’t connect him at this time. Meanwhile, the WSB has this evidence implicating Jennifer. And their theory, no matter how implausible, is still possible.

Laura: But the thing to remember about the Cassadines is if everything points to them except the evidence —

Anna: that’s because they’ve arranged for the evidence to point elsewhere.

Laura: Exactly.

Anna: Right.

Laura: Um, there’s something else that I wanted to tell you about. Just the other day, Victor gave me the hard sell about combining forces. Yeah. To protect the family from some ominous threat in the future.

Robert: Let’s not forget that Victor has been after Drew, hoping to trigger that mind-control rubbish of Helena’s.

Felicia: Here’s a thought. Is it possible that whatever Victor is up to is completely unconnected to the Ice Princess?

Anna: No. Because Victor comes to town, all right? He’s planning to use Drew for some nefarious purpose. At the same time — at the same exact time — Luke dies… and the Ice Princess is stolen. It’s not a coincidence. I just don’t believe it’s a coincidence, no matter what the WSB says.

Felicia: Well, what if Jennifer is telling the truth? I mean, if she really was set up, what is it that we can do to prove Victor’s involvement?

Robert: Well, um, I can think of a surefire way to find out if Victor is really involved in this.

Valentin: You know, I’ve always wanted to do that.

Alexis: I have a feeling that’s not your first swivel. Up. Now hug me.

Valentin: Hi.

Alexis: Ooh, it’s good to see you!

Valentin: You too. Good to see the rumors are true.

Alexis: You’re gonna have to narrow that down.

Valentin: While I was away recuperating, word on the street was that you were greatly improving your circumstances. This is nice.

Alexis: Mm.

Valentin: Love the quote.

Alexis: Yeah. So do I. Harmony Miller gave it to me.

Valentin: Who? Wait. Shiloh’s fixer at the D.O.D.? How did that happen?

Alexis: I think she found it online. Tell me — how are you?

Valentin: I’m fine. I’m back, and I’m better than ever.

Alexis: I’m sure you’re happy to be reunited with Charlotte.

Valentin: After the incident with Peter, I sent her away to boarding school.

Alexis: Peter’s dead. I don’t think he can kidnap her again.

Valentin: Wish I could have been the one to have killed him.

Alexis: You would’ve had to take a number.

Valentin: Speaking of numbers, yours are impressive. Circulation is up. Your online presence is spectacular.

Alexis: Why are you being so nice to me? What do you want?

Valentin: Well, I’ve had some time to think, and, uh, it occurs to me that a media company in the family could be very useful.

Alexis: Could it, now?

Valentin: And as it happens, my father agrees.

Bartender: What can I get you?

Harmony: Um, I’ll get a whiskey, neat. Actually, you know what? Can you, um — can you make it a double?

Bartender: Rough day?

Harmony: [ Exhales deeply ] You have no idea.

Harmony: Brendan, please listen!

Brendan: I won’t! But the police will listen to everything I now know — today!

Harmony: No! [ Grunts ] I won’t lose my daughter!

Brendan: [ Screams ]

[ Thud ]

[ Ice clinking in glass ]

Harmony: I just want you to always remember that you are the most important thing to me in this world.

Willow: Okay?

Harmony: I love you.

Brendan: What if I was to tell Michael Corinthos about this information? If Nina Reeves was to find out that Willow was her biological daughter — oh, boy, would that complicate the visitation case.

Harmony: [ Exhales deeply ] Okay. Okay.

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Willow: Mom?

Portia: You think this is the same person who put the wedding ring in your locker?

Elizabeth: I mean, that makes the most sense.

Portia: I’m sorry, honey, but this is terrifying.

Elizabeth: I know.

Portia: I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

Elizabeth: Thank you. I appreciate that.

Portia: And I really do owe you an apology. I-I mean, I’ve been so preoccupied on everything with Trina, I haven’t checked in on you at all.

Elizabeth: No. I mean, I haven’t checked in with you, either. I get it. We’re just stressed.

[ Cellphone beeps ]

Portia: I have to check on a patient.

Elizabeth: Yeah. Go. Go. But we’re okay. All right?

Portia: Yeah.

Britt: The truth is… I-I did — I did speak to Terry about your interview.

Brad: I take it it’s a hard pass.

Britt: No. She hasn’t made a decision yet. But she didn’t shoot it down, either. So that’s a good sign, right? I think she’s actually open to hiring you.

Brad: That’s amazing. So how can I move the needle?

Britt: Excuse me?

Brad: You know how Terry thinks. Tell me how to give myself an advantage. I really want this job.

Selina: Imagine that I have all the proof I need to send you back to prison — for good this time.

Britt: What do you want?

Selina: I have plans for Bradley. And changing bedpans isn’t part of this. This is where you come in. You will keep Brad on the right path. The challenge, Dr. Westbourne, is that while you’re pulling Brad’s strings, he’ll never know that I’m pulling yours.

Britt: Do nothing.

Brad: Do nothing? Wait. Are you afraid I’m gonna embarrass myself again?

Britt: No. No. I-I’m just wondering — do you really want to be an orderly?

Brad: Terry made it clear she wouldn’t consider me for anything else.

Britt: Then don’t work at G.H. Hold out for something better.

Jordan: I told you why I’m here. Your turn.

Curtis: I’m just clearing my head, getting some fresh air.

Jordan: Any chance you’ll need to go all the way to Spoon Island to clear your head?

Curtis: You know me.

Jordan: All right. Well, I’ll leave you to it. Are we good?

Curtis: Uh, yeah, we’re good. Why wouldn’t we be?

Jordan: Because I didn’t get Marshall’s sealed arrest records for you.

Curtis: Uh, pbht, no. I’m — I’m past that. We’re good.

Jordan: In that case, if your thoughts do take you to Wyndemere, don’t let spencer and Esme get under your skin. You have a new family now. They need you.

Curtis: Thanks for the advice.

Selina: I thought she would never leave.

Robert: All I’m suggesting is that you take your closeness with Valentin and maybe use it for some greater good.

Laura: It’s a lot to ask.

Robert: Well, look. If Valentin is on the side of the good guys, as he claims to be —

Anna: Stop. Stop it. Don’t push it. Even if I did get Valentin to tell us something, you wouldn’t even trust it.

Robert: Maybe not, but all I’m suggesting is that you take your relationship with Valentin and…use it for something better.

Felicia: Relationship? What relationship?

Alexis: Since when do you care what Victor thinks?

Valentin: Like I said, I’ve had a lot of time to think about it. And despite Victor’s many faults, I think there’s something to be said about his notion of family unity.

Alexis: These are Cassadines we’re talking about. They take to family like sharks take to chum. If Victor wants to get close to you, he’s not being paternal. He’s hungry.

Valentin: We have a rare opportunity. It’s unprecedented.

Alexis: You tell uncle Victor that we do not have a family paper. It doesn’t belong to me, and even if it did, I would never allow the Cassadines to use it as a mouthpiece. What do you think he wants it for, anyway?

Valentin: Greater good.

Alexis: Said no Cassadine ever.

Valentin: Alexis, don’t turn your back on what’s left of the Cassadine family.

Alexis: I have daughters. And you, I hope.

Valentin: You will always have me.

Alexis: Not if Victor’s attached.

Valentin: Okay. Well, think about it, because I have. And we’ll talk soon. You can’t pick your family.

Alexis: On the contrary. You have to.

Willow: What brings you back here?

Harmony: I just needed to unwind. Please come. Join me. Unless you’re here with Michael. I know I’m just — I’m not his favorite person.

Willow: Michael went to the gym. Oh. I was, um, planning to go to G.H. To study, but I’m a little under the weather, so I decided to have some soup while I study.

Harmony: Do you need to see a doctor?

Willow: It’s mostly my head. It’s probably a stress headache from Nina. Sorry. Sorry. You just said you needed to unwind. You don’t need me dumping all of my stress on you.

Harmony: No. Oh, my gosh. No. You can tell me anything any time, Willow. I will be here for you as long as I can.

Willow: As long as you can? What, are — are you going somewhere?

Finn: Hi.

Elizabeth: Hey. I’m so glad to see you.

Finn: I’m glad to see you.

Elizabeth: Dante called.

Finn: Mm.

Elizabeth: They couldn’t find any fingerprints on the defaced painting other than mine and Jake’s.

Finn: Mm.

Elizabeth: And they couldn’t trace where the paint came from. It looks like we’ve hit another dead end.

Finn: For now. You know, Chase is a good detective. He’s at your place right now. I know he’s gonna turn something up.

Elizabeth: I just wish I hadn’t taken that stupid sleeping pill that night. Maybe I could remember what the figure looked like.

Finn: What if there’s a way you could remember?

Britt: This is the perfect opportunity for you to start over. You can do anything you want with your life.

Brad: I want the life I had before I went to prison. But since that’s not possible, I…

Britt: That’s right. It’s not. So why settle for crumbs of what you used to have? Don’t limit yourself. Have you really considered any other options?

Brad: Do you not want me working at G.H.?

Britt: I just — I want you to have everything you’ve dreamed of. And this is not that. This is a crappy version of it — literally. Don’t limit yourself.

Brad: Well…I’m not qualified to do much else outside the medical field. And with my background, no other hospitals are gonna hire me without someone there vouching for me. Trust me, working at G.H. Is the best thing for me — even as an orderly.

Britt: I’m just saying, keep your options open.

Brad: The only other option I have is working for my aunt. [ Scoffs ] And we both know no good will come of that.

Curtis: Your messenger said you wanted to meet me here. I’m guessing you have some information for me.

Selina: We had a deal — I get you information on Marshall Ashford, and you let me host my poker games at your club.

Curtis: I remember. Were you able to get that police report?

Selina: Yes and no.

Curtis: Either you got it or you don’t.

Selina: My people were able to access witness-protection files, but they came up empty on Marshall Ashford.

Curtis: What do you mean?

Selina: My people don’t fail, Mr. Ashford. There is no file because Marshall Ashford was never in witness protection.

Felicia: I know you’ve been spending a lot of time with Valentin, but a relationship?

Anna: Okay. You know what? We’re getting off topic here. I agree with you, Laura, that there’s too many loose ends that just don’t add up. And — and that’s really because all of these missing pieces are being concealed by Victor.

Felicia: We do still have one bit of evidence.

Laura: What’s that?

Anna: Oh, yes. Thank you. So, Jennifer claims that she had a man in her room, a French naval captain, and she insisted that he was the one that planted the diamond in her safe.

Laura: Does this captain have a name?

Felicia: Francois Olivier.

Anna: Right. But we couldn’t locate him before we had to leave.

Robert: Maybe Jennifer invented him to save her own skin.

Felicia: Oh, no, no, no. I spoke with the bartender there. He confirmed that there was a man that Jennifer was friendly with.

Robert: Well, maybe she lured him to her room as a patsy.

Laura: Wouldn’t be the first time.

Anna: Okay. I don’t want to rule anything out — Jennifer’s guilt or Victor’s potential involvement.

Brad: Don’t work at G.H.?

[ Cellphone chirps ]

Brad: Why the change of —

Britt: uh, hang on. [ Chuckles ]

Brad: Something urgent?

Britt: Um, yes. That. I got a notification from society setups that I have matches to review. As if I forgot.

Brad: Why are you dragging your feet on that? You’ve got a perfectly great selection of guys there.

Britt: So great they need a matchmaker? I’m different.

Brad: Uh-huh.

Britt: I’m using a matchmaker because I have a pushy mother.

Brad: I hope you didn’t put that in your profile.

Britt: Maybe this is hopeless. I mean, what kind of future could I hope for with any of these guys?

Brad: What do you mean by that?

Finn: What do you think about making an appointment to see Kevin Collins?

Elizabeth: Um, you know I’m all for therapy, but I don’t see how talking about it is going to solve this particular problem. And I-I don’t even know where I’d find the time.

Finn: I don’t mean long term. I just — I know Kevin specializes in therapies that recover memories, right?

Elizabeth: Well, yeah.

Finn: Perhaps if you — you work with him, maybe he’ll at least help clarify what you saw. It might lead us to who’s harassing you.

Elizabeth: I don’t know.

Finn: It’s up to you, of course. It might be worth a shot.

Elizabeth: No, it’s — it’s a good idea, but I just need some — let — let me think about it.

Finn: Yeah. Yeah. Of course. Of course. Hey. You sure you’re okay?

Elizabeth: Actually, I’m gonna ask Epiphany if I can take a personal day.

Finn: That’s good. Okay. Well, um, you go home and get some rest. I’ll, uh — I’ll check in on you later.

Elizabeth: You’d better.

Jordan: Portia.

Portia: Commissioner.

Jordan: I ran into Curtis. He told me reporters are giving Trina a hard time. I-I came by to offer my help.

Portia: Well, if you really want to help, you can get the D.A. To dismiss the charges.

Jordan: I wish I could.

Portia: And I wish you meant that. Of course, if you did, you wouldn’t have arrested my daughter in the first place.

Curtis: Okay. Then I’ll just take a copy of the sealed arrest records, assuming they exist.

Selina: They do.

Curtis: Where are they?

Selina: They’re in my possession — where they will remain for now.

Curtis: Ms. Wu, we had a deal.

Selina: And I have every intention of holding up my end. But first, you must uphold yours.

Curtis: How do I even know you have those records?

Selina: Safely stored away. I’ll gladly give them to you after you do what I ask. Have your club ready for me.

Harmony: Don’t look so concerned. I just meant that, you know, soon you’re gonna be graduating nursing school, which is, like, amazing. I am so proud of you. That means you’re gonna be working full time, and your free time is gonna be with Wiley and Michael, your family.

Willow: Well, you’re my family, too. Look, I really appreciate the effort you’ve been making over the last few months to rebuild our relationship. I know I haven’t exactly… made it easy for you.

Harmony: Well, that’s understandable, all things considered.

Willow: Well, I’m happy to keep working on it with you.

Harmony: Willow, that… [ Voice breaking ] That means so much. You know, after all the mistakes I made with you growing up, getting you involved in Dawn of day, there was a time that I just — I didn’t even — I didn’t even hold out hope for a relationship or forgiveness.

Willow: I was angry with you for a long time. I didn’t know if I could trust you again. But, I mean, look at you now. Every time I see you, you are bending over backwards to make up for your past.

Harmony: Unfortunately, the past, it just keeps hanging over us.

Willow: But it doesn’t have to. I have forgiven you.

Harmony: You have? That is so much more than I deserve.

Willow: Oh.

Harmony: It’s just no matter how hard I try to do the right thing… trouble just keeps following me. Right up to your doorstep, even.

Willow: Mom, does this have anything to do with that man that approached us yesterday? What was his name? Brendon Byrne.

Jordan: this is my job. I had no choice.

Portia: Of course you have a choice, Jordan. See, I’ve seen you. I have seen you go outside the law for your family time and time again.

Jordan: And it has brought nothing but trouble, which is why I have to play everything by the book.

Portia: Oh, oh. Of course you do — now. Because it’s my daughter. Which begs the question… you know what? Never mind.

Jordan: No. You clearly have something to say. Say it.

Portia: I’m wondering if you are making this personal.

Anna: Thanks for coming by.

Robert: Oh, if it’s not the devil incarnate. Mm.

[ Birds chirping ]

Valentin: If I’m the devil, does that mean you were speaking about me?

Anna: We were.

Valentin: Good, ’cause I haven’t stopped thinking about you.

Britt: Look at my life. I mean, where would a relationship even fit in?

Brad: Evenings and weekends?

Britt: I work those. I mean, the only reason I had time for my last relationship was because we were on the run from the law and assassins. I couldn’t work remotely.

Brad: [ Sighs ] So you’ve been burned a few times. But that doesn’t mean you should give up. Your Mr. Perfect’s out there.

Britt: No, he isn’t.

Brad: But Mr. Sufficient might be. So go find him. You deserve to be happy, Britt.

Britt: Thanks, Brad. You know who also deserves happiness? You.

Brad: [ Sighs ] No.

Britt: Yes.

Brad: Ah, who am I to argue? So, here’s the plan. Step one — you get your man. Step two — I go get the job at G.H., Then I get my own man.

Britt: Isn’t that step two and three?

Brad: No. ‘Cause step three is you and I both living our best lives. Simple as that.

Britt: Brad…

Brad: What? You don’t like the plan?

Britt: I love the plan. There’s something I need to tell you.

Selina: Good afternoon, nephew. Dr. Westbourne.

Brad: Aunt Selina. Britt and I were just —

Selina: Yeah. I’m sure you’ve enjoyed your time with your friend. Now you must listen to my good news. I have a job for you.

Brad: You, uh — you do?

Selina: Starting immediately. Come, Bradley. We have much to discuss.

Brad: Hmm? Okay.

[ Telephone rings ]

Elizabeth: Nurse’s station.

Man: Don’t forget me.

Elizabeth: What?

Man: Don’t forget me — in room 1011. I asked for a blanket.

Elizabeth: Uh…yeah. Just a moment, please.

Harmony: What makes you think this is about that guy from last night?

Willow: I saw him say something to you when he was leaving. And it wasn’t “excuse me.”

Harmony: It was nothing. I swear. It was — um, he knows Alexis, and I met him at her office.

Willow: Then why didn’t you say so?

Harmony: ‘Cause I don’t know. I just — I didn’t think it mattered. There I go again, making the wrong decision.

Willow: Mom.

Harmony: [ Exhales deeply ]

Willow: Mom, what is going on? Do — do you need help?

Harmony: No. Oh, that’s so sweet of you. No. You don’t have to worry about me. Ever. Okay? I can look after myself, and I’m gonna be here to look after you, too.

Willow: Well, thanks.

Harmony: I know I said it before. But I truly, truly mean it… Willow. No matter what I’ve done… I’ve done it for you.

Willow: Uh, what do you mean, you did it for me? Mom, what have you done?

Alexis: [ Exhales sharply ]

On the next “General Hospital” —

Portia (to Jordan): You honestly can be impartial.

Marshall (to TJ): I’m so happy that you found yours.

Josslyn (to Cameron): Who’s side are you on?

Britt (to Spencer): Do you believe Trina filmed that video?

Valentin (to Anna): I absolutely would have done the same thing.

Drew (to Michael): I think you summed up my situation perfectly.

Alexis: Oh my God.
