THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 You were looking for me. Hmm? Me. Shut the door.

Um, what’s this about? Well, it’s about your sister Lee, the company Jet and the city of Jakarta in that order, I know what your sister’s been up to, Lee, and so do you, don’t you?

Thank you for coming. I’m sorry to tell you from work. That’s no problem. Stop for a lunch break. Anyway. My message may get some urgent. It is. It is. I have something to ask you about your brother.

Wait, so Ava caused a crash that killed your grandmother and she’s dead too. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, I, uh, she tried to get away, drove off the road with my grandmother in the backseat. Was it an accident? Uh, I, I don’t, I don’t know. You know, my dad, my dad seems to think that she crashed the car on purpose.

Oh my God. That’s,

VJ Damara, don’t let me ever hear you take the Lord’s name of van ever again. Did you hear me?

This is who you hired as your lawyer, Nicole, please. Oh, no, no, no. I recognize the name. My soon-to-be ex-husband is police Commissioner Ray Fernandez. So I’ve heard quite a bit about you. All good? I assume. Oh, well, I’m sorry that I can’t return the same sentiment you see my. Client here hasn’t exactly told me much about you yet.

From what I’ve gathered, you’re the reason why his girlfriend aborted their baby

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Excuse me, but that is not true. What the hell, Eric Jada is the one who took your baby from you, not me, but yet when it’s out, blame Eve, right? Father? And other thing that surprises me is seeing you turn around and hire the serpent herself as your lawyer. Low life. You know, I find it curious, you casting aspersions when you yourself are in bed with Mr.

Loli.

My apologies sister. I didn’t know you were coming, seeing you after everything was, that was quite a shock that Aunt, sister, Mary, moreover, banks to you. Yes, of course. Damn. Are you gonna invite me in and tell me what Jesus’ name happened to my four sister or not?

Yeah. My, my dad, you know, he, he went after Ava for, for lying about her marriage to Jake defrauding the company for his shares. And I, I, I, I don’t know. She, she, she must have just lost it, so she was going down anyway. Might as well take someone with her. And punish your dad in the process. Right? Oh, Johnny, I feel so terrible for you and for Tripp to lose his mom in this way.

I, I can’t even imagine. And you, you lost your sweet grandmother. Oh, Johnny, I am so sorry.

Um, I, I’m not sure what, Getting out of found my sister, Stephanie.

Okay, we’ll do it that way.

You see, a couple of weeks ago I was gonna take Chloe on this romantic getaway. We’re gonna fly to Miami. So when I called to book the company, jet, you know the jet that’s reserved for execs of this company. The jet that literally has my name plastered on the side of it. Right. That one, it was unavailable out for servicing, supposedly.

Oh, how unfortunate. I know. So anyway, I was talking to one of our managers today and he happened to mention how that specific. Shouldn’t be due for servicing for at least another couple of months. So naturally, I did some digging. Turns out the Jet’s logs were hacked. Now your sister, she’s very good with computers, right?

I mean, that’s why we hired her. Anyway, the Jets logs reflected that that plane was out for servicing, when in fact it had been commandeered for a clandestine trip to Jakarta by your sister, and everyone here at Damara was none the wise.

To everyone except you, Lee,

Kathy, he seems so serious. Sorry, I was just a little, um, distracted about something earlier. Looking at something in the mail, but you know what? Forget it. Don’t worry about that. I am just excited about something and I hope you will be too excited about what, Wendy? Will you be my maid of honor?

Well, what are you saying? Um, well, we haven’t even really known each other that. I mean, don’t you have like a whole list of eager girlfriends just fighting for the top spot? Um, yeah. Um, you probably might not believe this, but I don’t really have many girlfriends. Right. Well, and so I’m not sure why you pivot to Lee.

Might I remind you, Lee, that I was. The day you realized your sister hadn’t shown up for work, you seem to be a little confused as to what happened, even maybe, dare I say, perturbed , if I recall correctly. Is this ringing any sort of bell up there in that head of yours? You chalked it up to her working remotely, either for her benefit or for mine, and then you left to check up on her, right?

Um, yes, I do remember that. Hmm. What must you have found when you checked up on Hurley? Because when I dug up the plane’s logs, Unaltered logs. Turns out at that very moment, the plane was already wing. Its way over to Indonesia, and here’s the kicker, every expense for that flight. Look at me. The fuel in flight, meals in flight entertainment was all signed off for by one Mr.

Lee Shin,

which tells me you knew your sister left town and you must have. Why she left, what the purpose was of her little jot on the company’s dime. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. Here’s the truth.

I’m waiting. Okay. I did know about my sister’s Little John to Jakarta, but after the fact, and I do know why she. I also know who went with her.

Hello Ali. Johnny was just telling me the terrible news about his grandmother. Yeah, I, I know about it. Trip told me. Johnny, I’m so sorry. I wanted to tell you in person. It’s just there’s been so much going on. Thanks. Wait, how long have you known? I talked to Trip on than. So you’ve known since Thanksgiving and you didn’t say anything to me.

Chanel, you’ve been going through so much. You and your mom got arrested. I didn’t wanna pile on. Look, I’m sorry. I should have told you. I will never keep you out the loop again. Okay. Oh, sh Chanel, there’s nothing to could have done. Don’t blame Ally. All right. I know you’re right. Both of. It’s just like, it’s all been so overwhelming, like Allie said, and it just, it just seems like it never ends.

What do you mean just what’s going on now with Abe? Wait, what’s going on with him? It’s nothing like what Johnny and his dad are going through, but he’s bad.

I think someone needs a refresher in his manners. I thought you, my family guys, hey they Steph hammered into you Honor and all that. I’m a businessman, aunt, sister, Mary Mara, but all the same You are, right. Where are my manners? You’re very, very welcome here, I suppose I’m just still surprised to see. He’s surprised.

Isn’t that just facial? Well, lemme tell you what surprises me, hearing about the untimely loss of my poor sister in the kidnapping Gone wrong. No less from anyone except my own nephew. So tell me exactly where were you in a time of need chasing girls for money or both for your information? EJ is the reason you are walking free no matter what.

Clarice Darrow here has led you to believe I was with EJ when he called the DA to drop the charges. You’re welcome. It seems like you two have a, a lot still to work through, so I’m just gonna get out of here. No, no, no, don’t go. Nicole is leaving. You know, I have a business to conduct anyway, but, um, here’s my business card.

Settle my feet anytime that, uh, you’re available. My home address is on the back.

Let me stop you. I’m sure Mr. Ron is waiting. You know, how many times do I have to tell you I am not seeing e. I had no place to go. He offered me and Holly a place to land. And so you accepted without any hesitation,

you know, I don’t wanna get ahead of myself, but this could be a real opportunity for us. An opportunity for what? Exactly. To have a real relationship and. , I helped turn it into something very special. I, you probably don’t know this. I mean, why would you know this? But I, I had a sister named Ariana. Ha. Yeah.

Tragically she’s gone now. But I named my daughter after her. I wanted to honor her, but nothing can replace that bond that sisters can. It’s really special and soon you and I are gonna be sisters-in-law, but I’m hoping that in time we can make it feel like we’re real sisters and not just related by marriage.

That would be, that would be amazing. Yeah. Yeah. Amazing. I, I’ve had such a great feeling about you. I mean, the minute I met you, I just felt like I could trust you and, and that really means a lot to me. Okay. Please, please, Wendy, just say Yes, please. Gabby, there’s, there’s something you need to hear.

The truth about Wendy’s trip is that, um,

come on Lee, don’t stop now. Well, it was your nephew Johnny, who actually commandeered the jet when, why? Yes. Yes. It, um, it, it seems that Johnny and my sister, the two of them have well, um, Hit it off, shall we say. Hmm.

I see. And so I assume to impress her, he whispered her away on a little romantic getaway. Hmm. On dam mayor’s dime. Yes. Yes. And um, I’m right. Uh, as you said, I did sign off on the expenses. But after the fact, what else was I supposed to do? I’m not sure I’m catching the meaning here. Well, um, to put it bluntly, he’s the boss’s son,

but just because the city council is cowardly and trying to avoid a scandal doesn’t mean that Abe has to kneel, fallen his sword. Yeah. I mean, mayor carver’s a fighter, a damn good one, right? I mean, he’s. Through how many crises before he’s gonna get through this one. I hope you’re right. Both of you and I mean, sure.

The city council may be trying to avert a scandal, but there is only one true villain here. Sloan Peterson. What’s wrong with you? AJ’s mother died and yet he still found the time to call the DA and drop the charges. He did. For you, and yet you stand here in front of me making underhanded comments like some silly wounded school.

Boy, anyone know the worsts part? Is it you and this woman you just met? Confront me here and accuse me of killing your baby. Now, we talked about this and even you agreed that it was Jada’s choice about her own.

After everything that we’ve been through, I am devastated to see you behaving. Like what? Say it, Nicole. What?

You’re not the special man. I thought you were.

Believe me, I know EJ has history and a pretty ugly one compared to you these past few days. He’s a saint.

You know what? You right about ej? I’ll just keep my opinions to myself. We’ll see. And as for me, I am not a saint. I don’t deny that, but neither are you. And as Jay’s decision about the abortion, that is her choice. We do agree on that. But that little private chat that you had with her, how hard it is to be a mother and raising a child on her own.

God, would you listen to yourself, all these insults and accusations like I’m some fallen woman, because I took EJ up on a place to say when I had nowhere to go. Oh yeah. And of course it’s my fault that Jada got an abortion, even though it was her own choice. You are blaming me for things that I haven’t done and I am sick of it.

Yeah. Well, I’m so sorry that I am impossible to deal with because you know what? Your opinion doesn’t matter anymore.

You make it sound like we’re breaking up. Yeah. Well, we’d have to be together to break up. Lucky for you. We never made that mistake. No, I wasn’t chasing women or money in my mother’s hour of need, and I assure you I did everything I could to bring her home safely. But when you are dealing with a lunatic, that crazy woman grabbed my mother.

And backed outta her very own deal. All I hearing is excuses. Excuses, excuses, excuses. Next thing you’re gonna my

look,

I’m not trying to justify my failings, I’m just trying to give you the whole picture. And ask for forgiveness even when I truly don’t deserve it.

I don’t know much about this Sloan Peterson person, but I know that my Uncle Chad is not a fan. Oh, trust me. No one is a fan. All you need to know about her is that she’s trying to ruin Chanel on her mother. And yet again, my mother gets dragged through the mud for something I did. Don’t blame yourself.

Chanel. Okay? You’re gonna get through this. You all will, hopefully very soon. I know you’re going through a lot too, Johnny, and I want you to know we are here for you. You know that, right? Yeah. Thank you. Uh, you know I had better get going. I did come here looking for Wendy. I should probably try and catch her at.

What did you need to see her about? You didn’t say? Oh, uh, nothing important. Just, uh, wanna see how things are going at the mirror?

I’m sorry if you wasted your time digging into this missing jet mystery. Um, I, I felt like I had to play dumb. I was just trying to protect my sister and her crush. Not to mention your c. , I assume it all makes sense now. All the pieces seem to fit together. Hmm. And, uh, hey, look at the Bright side. Jets back.

Uh, you can use it to whisk Chloe away to Miami. Uh, right now. , if you’d like , we will be going to Miami. But just on a different timeline, huh? Yeah, we’re thinking New Year’s. Oh. Um, the day I’m marrying Gabby, Exactly. And obviously she’s told you Gabby has that she invited both me and Chloe, right? Obviously, but we’re not gonna be there.

We decided it’s not for us. We sent in our IV P yesterday, let you hear it from me. Right? And let’s be honestly, do you really want your bride’s ex-husband. And his new lady in attendance. Do you, uh, think I’d feel threatened because I, I assure you I wouldn’t be, uh, you’ve been very clear that you have no lingering feelings for Gabby, and, uh, she’s been clear as well that she holds nothing but resentment for you now that, um, you’ve returned and treated her with so much, uh, rudeness and insulting behavior.

But, but hey. I get it. So have a wonderful time in Miami.

Hey, wait, what’s wrong? Whatever it is, you can tell me. We can fix it.

So we both agree we have to keep their. Your dad’s and my brothers. Hey Gabby and s Stephan Can’t help you feel okay with that? No, not really. Me neither. I just, I know that being a maid of honor means putting everything else aside to make sure the bride stays perfect. I guess I’m worried about being up for the job.

Because as it is now, I’m on thin ice damara, and after playing hooky, I have a ton of work to catch up on. I guess what I’m saying is I wouldn’t wanna let you down. Are you kidding me? That’s you . You couldn’t possibly let me down ever. Unless you refuse to be my maid of honor, so please, please, please say you guys, Wendy, please.

Yeah, I’d love to think you. Think you, you.

Well, perhaps in your grief you have forgotten, so I will remind you. God is in charge of forgiveness, not me.

I wasn’t asking you for his forgiveness. I was asking for you. Well, right now I’m more concerned about the immortal soul of my sister. So when is the funeral? Oh, I’ve, nothing’s been arranged yet. Nothing. She’s been arranged, been busy. Have we? I’d hate for you to interrupt your important schedule for something so trivial as the passion of your own mother.

It’s in its true graces that I am here. My sisters’ beloved son has managed to both fail her in love and now in this shame on you, air Mr. Mirror. Shame. Shame, shame.

So this is how we’re doing this that are in spiteful probably for the best. Otherwise, we’d make the same mistake. Fine. Cutting.

This is really happening, isn’t it?

In case you can find another way through. I can’t. Maybe our mistake was trying to recapture what we once had,

forgetting all the things that made us wrong for each other. That day in the office when we fell, we had a. We kissed. Yeah. And then your phone rang in, was in the

Wendy. Hey, what are you doing here? It’s. We don’t have to keep our friendship a secret anymore. Remember, it’s our cover now. In fact, it’s probably better for people to see us together. Let ’em think what they think first we’re a secret. Then we’re drumming up wild gossip. What a whirlwind friendship chip.

Anyway, um, I went looking for you earlier just to check. Make sure you’re okay. I spoke to my dad and he was asking if I had any second thoughts about, you know, about keeping our secret about Stephan. I told him we’re both on board, but I wanted to make sure with you I was. Then Gabby called,

oh, you scared the hell outta me. , sorry. Uh, you were somewhere else totally absorbed in whatever you were looking at. Yeah. The perfect target, , that, that, that arrived today, Steph and Chloe aren’t coming to the wedding. Yeah, I know I spoke with Stefan a while ago. What I didn’t know is that you had invited him in the first place.

Yeah. Sorry, I didn’t tell you. I was just, I, I mean, I assume that you’d want a handful of high ranking execs from Damira there. So that was, um, the only reason for the invitation. What do you mean? Um, I, I don’t know. Maybe a part of you wants to show s Stephan that you’re really moving on. I just want Stephan and everyone else to know how happy I am and I am marry the most wonderful man.

I am the luckiest woman. I’m the lucky one. Hey, actually, I forgot to tell you. I saw your sister today. I asked her to be my maid of honor. Oh, um, you saw Jane when, yeah. She didn’t skip out on work. She, she came during her lunch. Well, what did she say? Well, she said yes, but after some persuading, and actually she seemed weirdly uneasy about it.

Gabby was laying it on pretty. About how we could be like real sisters, how close we could be in. She’s seemed genuinely excited about it. I thought she was gonna break out one of those heart BFF necklace sets. Whole time I was trying to smile. Dead inside. Look, I’m sure Gabby didn’t even notice. If you can go face to face with Dr.

Rolf, you can handle anybody. I don’t know. I kept trying to leave. I must’ve been sweating and squirming. It got so bad. I almost blurted out what we did.

Yes.

Let’s talk about what you did.

You down there? Hmm?

Just what are you? You are right. I you should have got to work immediately. Planning something to honor mother. Uh,

While we’re working at the particulars, I want you to stay here. Oh. No argument. I’m going to speak to Harold about setting up a room for you. Stay right here.

Stop staring with your old man

there, a room at the crossroad somewhere.

The call about Jada. It was either the worst timing possible. And the best if we’d actually gotten started.

It would’ve made it harder when things blew up, which was inevitable. Yeah, inevitable.

I guess

Well, I can’t imagine why Gene Wen would be uneasy about being a maid of honor. Well, I think she’s, she’s concerned about the responsibility that come to it, but I told her that she couldn’t disappoint me. So is she resolved All good. I don’t know. Still feels like there’s something that she wasn’t telling me.

Well, you know what I think? I think that you two just don’t know each other all that well yet. You think there’s something she’s not telling you, but I think she’s probably just thinking about what to have for dinner, and that’s very jing wet. I think you should just put this out of your head. I bet the two of you are gonna end up being really good friends.

Yeah, that’s what I told her. Well, you know what they say about great minds,

uh, uncle Stephan. Now we, we were just talking about, uh, we, we, we, your little romantic getaway to Ja.

Yeah, I figured it was you who hacked into the logs for the jet. Why you chose Jakarta as your getaway destination. Hmm. Lano. But I hope you kids had fun because it’s gonna be the last trip you take for a long time on the company’s dime. Of course. And just a fair warning.

Nothing gets by me.

Is it just me or is this getting harder by the minute?

Thanks, voicemail. Hey. Hi, it’s me. Um, I, I’m sorry that I ran out on you and mama before. I just was, I was too emotional. Um, but, uh, gimme a call back when you can. I, I wanna know what’s going on with you and those dim widths at the city council. Okay. Talk soon. You okay? I don’t know how we’re gonna do. But we need to find a way to keep Sloan Peterson from ruining all our lives.

Hello, Eric? Hi. I’m here because I, we have a matter of my bill to discuss. Yeah, no, I am, I assume. I guess it’s just, I didn’t expect to see you here this fast. You and Nicole seemed really in the thick of it. Yeah, well, we actually realized we had nothing else to say.

Should I go? No.

If I stay, you know what that means?

I think we both know what it means

and Jada.

It’s like doing ra. I gotta do the right thing. I can’t stay with Jada, especially when my heart belongs to someone else

As, as angry as I was with you. I never stop loving you. Thank you.

Oh, Eric. This time, no, we. You gotta screw it up, I promise. Yeah.

And sister, you disappeared on me. Apparently one of your invades has an evil sense of humor. Uh, how do you mean? I asked, which was my beloved sister’s room, and she. Pointed this way, put this gas perfume foul, and the air could not be Susan’s. Well, this was mother’s room, but I’ve been letting a friend use a temporarily.

Oh, a friend. I knew you were chasing girls Elvis, just like your namesake. But I pray to God that you were not fornicating in your mother’s mouth. Oh, for.

For Pete’s sake, aunt Sister, yes, my friend happens to be a woman, but that’s all she is. A friend. That’s what they all say. But I pray that is true in your case. Your soul is in enough jeopardy as it is.

Hmm. Looks like someone’s planning a memorial

tasteful affair for attack lady,

but Susan Banks wont be the only one late to rest that day.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

No offense dear Meemaw God, but this is disgusting. I thought you were getting used to it. Did I say that? Mm-hmm. . You also said that you were starting to feel better, which proves that while my grandmother’s hangover recipe may not win any points for, uh, It does work if you say so. Have I ever stayed you wrong?

Oh, too many times to count . Ouch. I’m just kidding. Ej. Now you were really kind to me last night. You needed a friend

and frankly, so did I. Oh, I’m glad I could be there for, Back at you, Ms. Walker. Back at you

What’s going on here?

You there? Fuss? What are you doing here? Well, hi. Could you call in sick for a second day in a row? Just wanna make sure you’re okay. That’s very nice of you. But I, I’m fine. Uh, the doctor who did the procedure said I can go back to work tomorrow. I see. So, uh, guess that means, yeah, I, uh, I got the abortion, so you want to be my lawyer.

You just said your sister won’t represent. I have other options. None better than me. Is that so? Oh, it’s so since you don’t believe it, why don’t you hire me for yourself and find out?

Good morning. Hey Abe. Hi sweetheart. How you holding up? Well, I am missing our king size bed. Thousand threads. Count sheets, but I’m hanging in there. And what about you, kiddo? Must have been nice spending the night at home. I’m very grateful that bail got me out on bail, but I will not be okay until mama is free.

They never should have arrested her in the first place. They need to let her go. Abraham, please, please tell us. You have some good news on that front. I’m afraid. Not

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Hey. Hey. If you’re looking for Paul, the Chanels in there with her now. Yeah, no, I let her go ahead of me. I just saw Abe go in there too. Do you want me to go in there and break it up? Uh, no. No. It’ll do Paul, some good to spend some time with her family and. That’ll give us some time to talk about my brother.

Yeah. Yeah. When we went for that drink, I, uh, I wasn’t expecting to walk in on that. Yeah. Nicole picking EJ up off the floor after Eric Dham. Neither did I. Yeah. It was so strange, strange seeing him like that. And he was belligerent to hangry and been drinking and assaulting people, including you. No, I, I hated the way that he behaved and.

How outta control he was. But I don’t know. My heart is just breaking for him. You know, I, I can see how much pain he’s in, and now you’re having second thoughts about not taking his case. I just can’t get the image outta my head, you know, my big brother sitting in jail all alone with nobody in his corner.

So what do you. I don’t know if that would be such a good idea because of my reputation. I try not to judge people, but when everyone and their mother calls me an ambulance chaser, it’s hard. I get it. But the thing that all those haters fail to mention is I tend to catch what I chase.

You sure? You don’t want anything to eat? No, I’m not hungry. You sure you’re feeling okay? I walked in. I couldn’t help but notice you were taking a pill. Oh, they’re, they’re just for. Which is basically gone. I just feel terrible about missing work. I mean, the department’s understaffed as it is. No, no, no. Jay, listen to me.

What’s important to me is that you take care of yourself. Listen, if you’re not ready to come back to work, no, I am hanging around. Here is the last thing I want to do.

If you wanna ask me something, just. Ask. I don’t mind talking to you about this. Okay. All right. Yeah, it’s just tough. On Thanksgiving, you told me that you decided that you weren’t gonna keep the baby, and I know that Eric hooked, otherwise. He did. But in the end, I, I had to do a space for me, which was totally your right.

I assume Merick understands that yes, but he was still not happy that I had changed my mind and ended the pregnancy without telling him. Was he angry? No, he was confused, very upset.

His new girlfriend on the other hand, must be very relieved. I would assume so. Nicole made it pretty clear that she did not want me to have the baby.

Somebody’s gonna answer me. I mean, I walk in here and find you two hugging on my dead grandmother’s bed. Yes, Johnny. It’s not what it looks like really? Cuz it looks like the two of you just got it on. Johnny, you don’t understand. Fuck Dad. I get that you’re grieving. Okay. But it doesn’t give you the right to have sex with RA’s wife.

Yes, I do need a lawyer. Paulina Price’s husband is like an uncle to me and her daughter is dating my niece. Boy, your niece should get as far away as possible from Chanel Dupree. She killed my mother. I know I heard you get in into it with Paulina, but she said it was an accident. Oh, that is a complete lie.

My father was Chanel’s College Profess. That little slut seduced him, a married man twice her age with two children, and then in a jealous reach, she pushed my mother off the roof of the building and claimed it was suicide. That doesn’t sound like Chanel. I mean, she’s a good kid. Oh, well obviously that good kid is adapt to hiding her homicidal tendencies.

You know, most those all sociopaths are these actual events occurred that why wasn’t she arrested years ago? Because Paulina covered. She buried the evidence. She gave the school a very generous donation to make it all go away, and my father kept that secret for me for a very long time. But honest Buddy told me the truth, which I’m telling you right now.

You do believe me. Yeah, it’s just a lot to take in.

I didn’t do it.

My dad couldn’t bear the pain, so he started drinking, eventually drank himself to death.

I loved my parents so much. Now they’re both gone.

You know what? It feels like you have what means most to you in this school? Taken. Yes, I do.

Look, I know you don’t like Rafe, but he’s a good guy. He doesn’t deserve this. Rafe is a good guy, which is why I would never cheat on him with your father. No offense. No. Take him. Okay. Well, Nicole, if you’re not hooking up with my dad, then what are you doing? Simple. I had no place to go. So there’s no place else to go with this.

I called everyone in my overseas contacts. Oh, no one can work any jurisdictional magic and make these charges disappear. What about even the people you know in Scotland? Unfortunately none. Their hands are tied. I even called one of Shane Donovan’s contacts at the American Embassy in in London, and was he any help?

She, and unfortunately, no. Come on. Don’t they understand that what Chanel did was it was an accident. Excuse me. Oh, gas winter. What city? Council president. I wonder what he wants. One way to find out,

do you understand the kind of pain that I’m in? Did you lose your parents tragically? No, you’re very much alive and still a part of my life. And how can you empathize with me? Because I recently learned I was going to be a father. It was a complicated situation. I broke up with my ex and she decided she was gonna have the baby first.

And way we agreed we were gonna co-parent. I was really happy

she decided to have an abortion. She had entered her pregnancy before I even knew it was done. That must have been very painful. Yes, it was. And compounding the pain. It’s the woman that I love went behind my back and she told my act to her pregnancy. I’m sorry.

I am guessing something stemming from that situation is what, uh, landed you in this posh establishment. Give the lady a price. Sounds like we both got screwed. I don’t know about you, but I’m not the type of person to just roll over and take it. Someone pushes me, I push back. I’m a fighter and I’m willing to fight for you if you’d let me.

Well, what exactly did Nicole say to you? Well, she asked me why I’d wanna be tied to a man forever. Who didn’t love me, and she reminded me of how incredibly difficult that would be. What, yeah. And then she ran down a list of reasons of why single motherhood would suck, and that even if I, you know, had this baby and was juggling a child and being a cop, that I would feel at both, even with Eric’s support, I cannot believe Nicole did that I can, she was not going to let anything stand in the way between her and Eric.

Not me, not her marriage to you. I’m definitely not my pregnancy. You and Rafer getting divorced. What? Johnny? Johnny, that’s none of your concern. You’re right. You’re right. And, uh, sorry for prying Nicole, and I’m sorry for jumping to conclusions about what I walked in on. It’s okay. EJ was nice enough to offer me and Holly a place to stay after I blew up my life yet again.

That’s all this was. Now if you gentlemen will excuse me. Um, I’m gonna go take a shower and get to the office.

Well, that was awkward. Ever hear of knocking? Yeah. Yeah. I would have. I just didn’t think I needed to. I, I wanted to feel close to, uh, grandma Susan. She and I spent a lot of time together in this room, and I thought maybe I’d feel her spirit or something. I don’t know. It was, it was dumb. No, it’s not dumb and all.

Son, would you like me to move Nicole to a different room? No, no, no. Grandma was, she was all about being generous. She’d liked that someone you care about staying here and I’m sorry for going off on you earlier. Ah, I suppose I can’t blame you for thinking the worst of me, given what you learned in Jakarta, that Lee and Rolf brainwashed your brother and you kept quiet.

I was under the impression that you were going to keep quiet about it as well. I hope you’re not having second thoughts, son. There’s just so much bad blood between Sammy and me. The last thing I want is to be estranged from Eric too. Well, it sounds like you’ve made up your mind. Well, I have, but this still concerns you.

So if you don’t want me to, Hey, Val, listen to me. I would never wanna stand in the way of you representing your. All right. I want you to do what you feel is right. You are the best husband ever, . All right, I’ll go tell Eric that you decided to take his case. That right, it won’t be necessary. I’m sorry. You don’t have to defend me, sis.

I heard someone else. Who

me.

I see. Well, uh, thank you for reaching out to me directly gas. Oh, yes, yes. I’ll, I’ll, uh, I’ll get back to you with an answer as soon as. Please do not tell me he’s asking you to cut some damn ribbon when your family’s in crisis. It’s a bit more pressing than that. Well, what is it, Abe? The city council is asking me to resign as mayor effective immediately.

The city council is asking you to resign as soon as possible. Well, why? Why? Why are they doing this? Well, the way ca put it, the optics are not good. The mayor of being married to the governor elect, who allegedly is covering up a murder, optics are not the truth. Now, someone over there asked to know that I’m the reason, I’m the reason why they want Abe to reside, and I’m the reason why you can’t enjoy your big win.

Oh, no baby. No, no. I’m sorry mama. I have to go. Hello. Chanel. Chanel.

Okay, Eric, you’re angry with me. That’s fine. Be angry, but do not hire this snake out of spite. Find someone else. Anyone else you call Justin. Kek. I think I was in preschool the last time. That guy won a case. Shut up. Hey, don’t talk to my lawyer that way. Well, you wouldn’t be defending her if you knew how she operated.

Do you know what she’s doing to Paul and Chanel what I’m doing to them? How about what they did to me? That little slut murdered my mother and then her mommy goes and papered over her with hush money. Okay, Eric, if nothing. Think about what hiring her is gonna say to Abe. As far as I know, Abe’s always up for justice.

Yeah. Well, Sloan’s not out for justice. She’s out for revenge. And anything that will inflict the most amount of pain on Abe’s family. Yeah. From what I understand, Ms. Peterson here, she exposed a crime and coverup. So if anyone’s the victim, it’s her.

Hey, where the hell does Nicole get? After everything that went down. Instead of leaving you alone, she decides to lecture you especially about something that’s so personal and so private free. Listen, don’t misunderstand me, it was 100% my decision to have this abortion. If I was ready to be a mother, no one, especially Nicole would change my mind about that.

Okay? Yeah, that’s fine. But she’s still, she had no right to pressure you. Oh man. You know, I forgot how incredibly selfish Nicole can be when she’s trying to get something that she wants. And what she wants and has always wanted is Eric,

well, this, now there’s one less obstacle on her way. I wouldn’t be so sure about that. What does that mean? Let’s just say. Eric wasn’t too happy when he found out that she interfered.

I told you, I’ll keep my mouth shut and I will. What about Lee’s little sister? Wendy’s not gonna say anything. You need to look, relax. Got nothing to worry about.

Thank you, son. Don’t, don’t thank me. I feel horrible about keeping this secret. I think Stephan has a right. So you said, yeah, I’ll say it again. What Ralph did, erasing Stephan’s memories for Gabby. That’s messed up. Like I said before, I didn’t become aware of the brainwashing until after the fact. Didn’t stop from taking advantage of it, using it to take the company back, and I will not apologize for that.

For doing what was absolutely necessary to protect father’s company and your legacy. This was about family Giovanni. Is the only reason Wendy and I are keeping our mouth shut as wrong as we both think this is. She doesn’t wanna destroy your brother’s life, and I I don’t wanna destroy yours either.

You’re suffering enough after losing Grandma. We all are.

Well, Chanel’s not picking up. You want me to go find her? No, no. Give her a little space. She’ll calm down. But you, you must be asking yourself if jumping that broom with me on Juneteenth for such a good idea. You wouldn’t, would never regret marrying you. Even if, um, I’m about to cost you your. You know, I already intended to step down as mayor and accompany you to the state capitol.

That was before Sloane Peterson dropped this bomb on us. Well, she’s not going to derail plans. Oh, hey babe. Come on. We’re at the center of an international scandal. Now, even if I took off that, which has already ruined my chances of being a successful governor, oh, we don’t know that. Well, here’s what I do.

There’s absolutely no reason for you to bow out when I’ll probably never even be sworn in.

Hey, uh, is, is Wendy home? Uh, no. I, I think that she probably went to work and. Ali is at the bakery and I, I’m all alone. Chanelle, what’s going on? You okay? Ho? No I’m not.

You hurt me correctly, Ms. Trask. I no longer wish to press charges against Eric Brady. I see no reason to continue to waste our time or the taxpayer’s money on such an unfortunate. Thank you for doing that. I know how hard it is to resist the urge to stick it to Eric. I promised you I dropped the charges and I’m nothing if not a man of my word, generally speaking.

Of course, . Of course. Well, I’m gonna get going. I look forward to seeing you tonight for dinner. I’ll have chef. Make us up a nice dinner with a special dessert for Holly. Oh, and I’ve also asked Harold to get her room ready right next to yours. Of course, ej, uh, about us moving in. Mm-hmm. , I’m not sure it’s a good idea.

Eric, listen to me. I know that you’re going through a hard time right now. I’m fine. No, you’re not. You just spent the night in jail, which is where sharks like Sloan Peterson spend their time circling trying to get to vulnerable people like you, please. And I’m sure she gave you her big pitch about how she’s the best, right?

But don’t fall for that. Why are you making such a big deal? Except that her offer, because my own sister refused. Bella wants to take your case. You changed her mind, Eric. Yeah. We’re a little too late for that, isn’t it? Okay, great. Then unsettled. So why don’t we walk across the street and see about getting these ridiculous charges dropped?

Sounds like a good idea. It’s trash. Detective Brady,

and what if I choose not to?

Okay. All right. All right. I’ll let them out. What was that about? Well, uh, EJ declined pressing charges against Eric. Excellent. That means the DA doesn’t have a case unless you want to be responsible for prosecuting your brother-in-law. It’s not that simple. Why? What do you mean? SK is going after Eric for assaulting a police officer, whether I wanted to or not.

I thought you wanted to move in. I did, but ej now your son is accusing us of having an affair . So, so that, that doesn’t bother you. It was a misunderstanding. Well, even if it was how, how long until the rest of your family starts gossiping about us and then the entire town. Look . My life is a hot mess.

Right now, and, and I really, I don’t wanna deal with this since when does Nicole Walker give a rat’s ass what anyone in Sadam thinks? Uh, since I now have a young daughter, but not so young that she wouldn’t notice dirty looks when I drop her off at school. Or whispers and finger pointing when we walk through the square.

I just don’t wanna expose Holly to that. Would you be doing anything wrong by living?

No. Would you be choosing the best possible situation for your family, I suppose then it’s settled. You and Holly are going to move in here and you can stay for as long as you want. Anyone who has an opinion on that can bloody well shove it.

Glad you decided to eat something. Thanks for looking out for me, boss Hunter. I will always have your back on the job or off. I appreciate that and I hope I didn’t come off as petty earlier. No matter how I feel about Nicole, I mean she is still your wife, not for much longer even so I shouldn’t have gotten.

I heck not. I mean, it’s understandable. You have every right to be upset. She, uh, she basically ruined your relationship with Eric from day one. Yeah. You meet with all her unannounced visits to his room or her decision to offer him a job, or better yet to come over and give him another comforting hug. Oh, those were great, weren’t they?

I loved walking in on those, but, but, but remember, we’re just friends. Yeah. Friends who can’t keep their hands or lips off of each other. I mean, Eric said that he was in denial about his feelings about her, and I believe that, but Nicole , you’re right. You know, I don’t think I’ve ever met a more passive aggressive, just selfish.

Sorry, I’m doing it again. No, no, no. Hey, go ahead. Let all out. As much as I love to keep ripping, Nicole, it’s, it’s just not productive, but it’ll feel good. Mm. Not in the long. If I really wanna get past this, I have to rise above. Meaning when I made this decision, I, I had to ask myself, what is it that I really want?

And I decided that it wasn’t being a single mother, not under these circumstances.

It was the hardest decision that I’ve ever made that I, I made it and. I need to honor my decision by focusing all my energy on creating the life that I want. You know, so any trash talking negative self pity, I, I just need to put that aside and do what my daddy taught me and be the bigger person there.

Go d your daddy Marks, he was a wise man. Yeah. So I mean, Nicole. Eric, no more power to her. Obviously, I, I wasn’t up to the task. Don’t sell yourself. Sure. Fix was in. I wish I would’ve known. No, I did know and I chose to ignore it. You know, I, I looked right past the fact that when you get involved with Nicole Walker or Eric Brady, you choose to end up like all the rest that have come before.

Just a speed bump on their never ending road toss. Uh, well, gps let assistant know where the next exit is. . , get me the heck outta here, right? Oh man. Sorry,

Fernandez.

Okay. All right. Okay, well, uh, thanks a lot for letting me.

Something up at the station. Yeah, I guess you could say that Eric, spend the night in lockup. What, Sean? Why can’t you just refuse to cooperate with prosecution? Look, Trask has other witnesses from the bar that night. If this goes to trial, she’s gonna call me and I’m gonna have no choice but to testify.

This is outrageous. Who are you calling?

Melinda? SLM Peterson. No, actually I’m calling about my new client, Eric Brady. No, you listen. I just handed you not one, but two career making cases.

And you can settle up by putting an end to this witch hunt against Mr. Brady

Trask. Agreed to drop all the charges, so said I’m free to go. Yes, sir.

I don’t even know how to pay you. Oh, personal check. Venmo, PayPal. We start with breakfast. . I’d like that. Hey Eric, you can’t just leave. We need to talk. There’s nothing left to say.

And surely this, this Sloan person has to know that her mother’s death was an accident. No, she doesn’t. She’s convinced that it’s murder. Can’t you talk to her, help her see things from your side? Oh no. Gee, you don’t understand. She is so angry, so hell bent on revenge that she is not gonna stop. She’s not gonna give.

She is determined to take me down. She has made that her life’s mission. Me and now my mom and Abe, my Aunt Bell will not let that happen. What is already happening? I am destroying my parents’ lives. Yeah. You listen to me, Mrs. Carver. We will get you out of here and get you to Capitol City and we will weather this.

Just like we have every other since you captured my heart. Okay. Okay. You’ll be sworn in as governor and I’ll be right there by your side as first gentleman. Just like we planned. You know, the city council. City Council may have done me a favor. What are you doing? Giving them my answer. Hello Cass. I just wanted to, uh, Give the city council my answer to what they’ve asked of me, and I’ve been, and he has decided he’s not going to step down, not now, not ever.

Eric got drunk and assaulted EJ and. I can’t, Eric’s never even raised his voice. I can’t imagine him putting hands on anyone, let alone a cop. No, you haven’t known Eric that long. It’s not the first time that this guy has spiraled outta control. Really? Oh yeah. He dodged a bullet hunter and something tells me that this is just the beginning of St.

Eric’s fall from.

Whoa. Whoa, buddy. Slow down there. Big guy. Sorry. The food and lockup was akin to something that a cat regurgitated. I was gonna say not great, but yeah, I can be, uh, overly blunt at time some. Sure. You find that very unappealing. Absolutely not. It works for you. It works for me too. And thank you again. I really appreciate this.

Hey, Eric. I’m, I’m glad to see you out. DJ told me he dropped the charges. He had nothing to do with getting me outta lockup, my lawyer did. Thank you. Sloan Peterson, Al Squire. Pleasure to meet you. Nicole Walker. I’m Oh, I know exactly who you are. Mrs. Robbins, Roberts, Keka Dam. Cook Brady Hernandez. I forgetting.

Anybody like me, your reputation precedes you.

Oh, seeing Eric, like this just really scares me. He can handle Sloan maybe, but what about his. You know, he was drinking and driving the last time he was in a place this dark, some really bad things happened. I know. Listen, I understand your concern, honey, but Eric’s come a long way since then. Yes, right now he’s love a rough patch, but he’s gonna get through it.

I pray. You’re right. You have that go Pauline’s waiting for me. You want me to go with you? Help explain, uh, Eric’s choice of attorney. Uh, no, I think I got it. I will. Tell Abe that even though Sloane got her tentacles into my brother, there’s no way in hell I’m gonna let her cause any more damage to his family.

Paulina, what are you doing? You heard me? Councilman Winthrop, my husband is staying put. No, no. You don’t have to worry about any trouble arising from a being married to a governor at an invest. How can I be so sure easy? Because I won’t be Governor Beth. I know. I know. I’ve been elected, but I haven’t been sworn in yet, and I’ve decided that I never will be.

Why didn’t you tell me any of this when we were together? Because I was ashamed. I had an affair with a married man, and I didn’t want anyone know about it. Not you, not Allie, remember, would’ve judged you. I know that now. I honestly thought that all of this was behind me, and then this Sloan Peterson showed up in town and, and then all of a sudden I’m being arrested in the middle of the square.

I’m so sorry I wasn’t here for that. I left Salem at the worst time possible. I I wasn’t here for you. I wasn’t here when my grandma Susan died. What? Your, your grandma died. Allie didn’t tell you? No, but she, she probably didn’t wanna lay anything else on me, but I am so sorry Johnny. I know how much you loved her.

I did.

I mean, I’m just going on about my life and, and you, you’re, you must be hurting so bad. I am. Yeah. Um, so is my dad, coach Lee Projections. I know they’re here somewhere. Oof.

So much for instantaneous relief.

I’ll get it housed.

Oh my God.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Oh, please. Let the bad sun go away.

Good morning, sunshine. Oh God.

Hey, handsome. What you in for?

Oh no,

there’s no hot water. The other is you just have to turn on the shower 10 minutes before you wanna take a shower.

Oh, you look adorable. Show up last night. I, uh, wasn’t expecting to sleep over. Oh, just go take a shower and grab one of, uh, race ropes. I don’t want whatever. You’re making a good cold

and I’ve decided. I’m owning this. Look, you’re gonna wake up to me in this row for the rest of your life. Oh, that’s fine by me because I know how easy it is to take it off.

Johnny. Hey, what’s going on? Hey, uh, I’m, I’m sorry to call you so early. I just, I had to know, do you still think we’re doing the right. Johnny, I’m just not sure anymore. God, I hate keeping it quiet. Wendy. You have to. Okay. You can’t tell Gabby this is so unfair to her. Look, you don’t know Gabby like I do.

Okay? If she, if she finds out, did my dad and your brother brainwashed Stephan, she’s gonna make him pay, you know, you know how tortured she is. Knowing Stephan doesn’t love her. It doesn’t love her is an understatement. I can’t stand the sight of her. Yeah, exactly. Okay. And she will be out for blood if she finds out that Lee and my dad had anything to do with it.

So please just stick to the plan. Okay then. Okay. I will try to put my dance aside.

This is our little secret and it will stay that way, Wendy. I didn’t know you were home

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

You have to stop calling so early. The phone woke alley up. Oh God. Did, did she hear you? Its me. Call you later. Sorry about that. No, it’s fine. Chanel Henry a daycare, so I got plenty of sleep. Um, when did you get back During the night. Did you see my note about why I was gone? Yeah, I did. Um, mind me asking who you were talking to just now?

Oh, it was Johnny. Did he go along on this trip you took? Yeah. Oh, so the two of you went on some mysterious trip together and now he’s calling you first thing in the morning. What happened between you two? Unless, of course, that’s the thing that you’re promising to keep a secret.

Oh, thank you. You’re welcome.

Best way, best ranch shadows I’ve ever had. Oh, of course there. It’s cause I’m an excellent cook. So, um, after we get married we can move in here. Um, Hey, I do this every morning. . So not happening . So you’d rather stand Salem in? No, I mean that’s not what I. I don’t know. I don’t wanna move in with my brother again.

I guess we can find our own place. Yeah, exactly. And when we do, you can spend a couple morning learning how to make.

Oh no. What a shame.

Now what? Don’t look at me now. I’ve really never approved of the facing public property, but it sure does look like the public opinion’s turning against you. Oh, I know how much you hated it when I was released on bail, not. I’m very happy the judge will let you out. Those spirit claw you make her to die for.

And then there’s the fact that the inmate who took your old cell is none other than your mother.

Paul,

I didn’t expect to see you here. Hmm, and I didn’t expect to see the dude who married me to Abe in the next L. I didn’t expect to see that either. You are Marlena’s son and he used to be a priest. They picked up the wrong guy. Right? Wrong. Oh, what? Don’t keep me a suspect. What’d they get? You? Assault and battery.

Ooh. Ex priest has a temper under the right circumstance. Yes, he does. Mm. So who you assault and batter? SMUGs. Son of a bitch who’s had it coming for a very long time.

Oh my God. What did we do? Isn’t it?

But how, how did it happen? You don’t remember? I’m going to try and not take that personally,

but that much drink could cause havoc on anyone’s memory. So, yeah, I, I, I do remember the two of us getting pretty. Yeah, I was a wreck over my mother. And you were a wreck over Eric. So last night we decided to drown. Our saw was in alcohol and then we came back here. Line Rapid. Oh God. Oh God. Eric was right about what?

I get dumped by a man and I get drunk and I turn into a helpless.

Okay. Okay, Mary. I’m not a hopeless sled and maybe I didn’t sleep with ej. Uh, come in

good morning, sunshine, or maybe I’m dead wrong.

I have to get going now. Yeah. I have an appointment with the florist. I know how much you’ve been looking forward to that. Oh, um, how long does it take for the shower to warm up? It’s okay. I’ll just, you don’t have to be there while I’m picking up the table decorations so I can just show up later. Say I love everything and hit the floor is my credit card.

You get hun. Quick . See, I told you. We make the perfect. Or we will mind you learn a few recipes. Yeah, I’ll get right on that. Okay. I’ll see you. Love you. I love you too.

That’s why I did what I did. What I told Johnny I to keep quiet about was, Oh, I get it. The two of you’re hugging up, right? Oh, that’s fine with me. Honestly, it’s not my business. We don’t want other people finding out, you know, my brother, his dad. Yeah. No, I, I will not tell anybody thanks. It’s just, it’s it’s pretty new and, and we just wanna keep it to ourselves for now anyway.

Yeah, I mean, like I said, what you and Johnny do is none of my business . Well, the thing is, I know, but she used to be married. Oh yeah. That might have been a sore subject for her before, but, um, she has much bigger things to worry about now. If you wanna come after someone, you come after me. Oh, I intend to.

My mother wasn’t even in town the night your mother died. Oh. But she showed up fast enough to make sure she cut a check to the college to cover your ass. That’s a crime. My mother, she was trying to protect me. She knew I was getting railroaded. It must be nice to have a mother takes care of you like that because of you.

I don’t have that. Or a father. The only protection I have is my knowledge. Do you know? You’re the reason I had the Uck so hard. Yeah. So that you could find out what it feels like to have everything that you cared about, taken away from you.

Baby, you look like you’re dealing with a world class hangover. Well, because I am. You’re not gonna toss your cookies, are you? Because I, I can’t take that. Even when Chanel was little. I can’t, I’m not gonna do. So you punched EJ because you were drunk? Something I wanted to do a long time. Mm oh. EJ seems to rub just about everybody the wrong way.

Yeah. He likes to do that. Mm. My youngest daughter used to be married to Johnny, his son for a while. Oh. I made a mistake of thinking, thinking that he’d wanna make a good impression on the mother of his daughter-in-law. , but he called Chanel a gold digger. To my face, it sounds like something he would do.

So what did he, what did he do that made you wanna haul off and punch him?

What he said about Chanel wasn’t true. He only said it because he wanted to hurt you and her. And what he said about me was, The only reason why he said it because he liked to look on my face, so I decided to rearrange his.

I brought you some breakfast. Ooh, yeah. I’m gonna take a hard pass some breakfast. Ooh. Especially that green stuff. Ah, ah, ah. The green stuff is a guaranteed hangover. Cure my mi Mar’s recipe . You had a Meemaw. Mm-hmm. , Meemaw Banks. My mother’s mother, she passed down the recipe and my mother swore by it, used to brew it up for me.

It offers almost instantaneous relief. Word of honor. Instantaneous, huh? Mm-hmm. . Oh, here’s fun. Near eye.

Oh, I don’t think this is made right. Mm-hmm. , it’s supposed to taste like that. Mother always said the only way to make sure it doesn’t come back up is to gag on the way down. No drink up. Then I’m in good shape. Mm-hmm.

she always looked out for me. Especially when I couldn’t look out for myself.

Tony, uh Gabby. Hi. Hey, um, I’m really sorry about Susan. Yeah, thanks. Uh, I really miss. She was one of a kind that’s killing my dad. I wish I’d been here for Oh, that’s right. Yeah. At the accident you were jet sitting around the road with Wendy. Yeah. You know about that, huh? Lee was, was ready to fire Wendy. I had to talk him down.

You do know that taking the company Jet out is a little over the top. Wendy, just start at that top. Yeah, I guess you’re right. Question for you though. Made you pick Indonesia as your romantic getaway?

I can’t believe Chanel was in jail. Yeah, that’s not all. Wow. I’ve been gone a long time. Honestly, it all happened really, really fast. But why? Well, there was something in Chanel’s past that I didn’t know about.

Wendy, you’re back. I just found out that you got arrested. I’m so sorry. Thanks. But you’re here. So what does that mean? They dropped the charges? No, I’m just out on bail. Um, I thought you were gonna open sos. Oh, I did. And then my day pretty much fell apart.

That grows on you, doesn’t it? Oh yeah. like a fungus , but I am feeling a little bitter. Thank you, cook for pad. I just provided the recipe, mom, not just for this, but for letting me stay the night. Sleeping in the office leaves something to be desired. Waking up in Egyptian cotton sheets is the bright spot of my morning

I wonder how Eric’s morning is sleeping one off on a caught in a jail. I’d say his morning is exactly as he deserves.

Paulina, can we not talk about last night anymore? Ah, I got my own EJ to deal with. Is he the reason why you. It’s a she. Hell have no fury, like a bitch with an ax to grind. I’m sorry. She’s not just going after me. She’s making it her business. Go after my daughter. What? I wouldn’t give, not the smirk of that phase of her.

Well, go ahead. Take your best shot.

I can’t believe Eric was drunk. I mean, he’s been sober since, since he caused that accident that killed Daniel. He told me last night, it’s just, I never seen him that drunk. I feel awful for him. , you’re joking. I mean it. He called you a slut. Me The devil encounter then punched me in the face. I. And then you backed me up when I decided to press charges against him.

I had several martinis by then. You’re not having second thoughts, are you?

Now that I’m sober, yeah. I’m having second thoughts.

She’s ready to take me. Now that there’s this set of bars between us, actually I just came to check out how you’re enjoying your new accommodations. Bit of a comedown from Governor Elect. I’ll be back on top. You’ll see. I wouldn’t hold my breath if I were you. And by the way, your daughter, she um, she says hello.

You stay away from my baby. Your devotion to her is touching, but once you worry, you’ll be able to fight all her battles for her as soon as the two of you are serving time for which you did to my mother. I know how painful your mother’s death must have been, but that doesn’t change the fact it was an accident.

No, push my mother off that roof when we both know it. I don’t know any such thing. And you, you convinced the authority that my mother killed herself. So look, you can just drop this victim act. This is not gonna work for you anymore. This is not an act. I’m on this side of the boss. You did that to me because my mother was your victim and I’m your victim.

This Sloan sounds like someone you don’t wanna cross. Tell me about. Do you think she’s the one who wrote Murderer on the Window? Yeah. Who else would do something like that? She is not going to stop trying to make my life hell. You wouldn’t even crossed paths with Sloan’s mother if she hadn’t invited you and lied to you up until that roof and then she attacked snow.

And then I tried to push her off of me and she lost her balance and fell. That’s really how it happened. Yes. Yeah. You know that and I know that, but nobody’s gonna convince Sloan that her mother wasn’t out to get me. Why was that? Her husband was one of my professors and I had an affair with him. Oh. And right before he drank himself to death.

He told Sloan that her mother’s death wasn’t actually a suicide like everyone thought he told her that I pushed her. Oh my God, that’s awful. And never since then, Sloan has been out to get me and it’s working. And now I am being charged with murder and my mom is, is in jail for supposedly covering it up.

And what scares me is that I don’t think Sloane’s gonna stop there. I’m afraid that she’s not gonna stop until she goes after everyone that I.

So wait, if I went to Jakarta, what, where should I stay? What should I do actually, what should I buy? Uh, you know, I, I, I really don’t know much about the place. We made us come back right when we got there. I could see that it was beautiful though. Uh, maybe you and Lee could go there for your honeymoon.

Good. I’ll put it on the list. Yeah. You guys haven’t made plans. Well, no. How come? I mean, you, you’re getting married in a couple of weeks. Lee’s been really busy and I dunno, anything about planning honeymoon? I’ve never been on one, so Really? Yeah, my first husband and I, we didn’t have a lot of money and romance wasn’t in the picture when I married Stefan.

I fell in love with him later and actually talking about going on a honeymoon when I lost him. I don’t even know why I’m telling you all of this because Stephan. Nothing to do with me or probably never did. So, you know what, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry about Susan. Gabby. I have to tell you something.

Oh, blueberry pancakes. The blueberries were in the fridge. You did not have to do this. You guys have been so nice about letting me stay here. Please. You’ve hardly even been home. Yeah, but you’re going through such a rotten time here. I’ll get this up. Hey, if the woman wants to make us pancakes, let her make us pancakes.

Anytime I can help with the cooking, just let me know. Thanks.

Mm. These are great. Let’s see.

Hmm. Hmm. They really are. Yeah. I was starving. Maybe eating something will help make you feel better. Anyway, I, I don’t need a distraction. So tell me about your trip. . So, um, it sounds like it was exciting. Why did you rush back? You know, I hate to disappoint you, but it was mostly work stuff.

What did you wanna tell me? It’s about your wedding, eh, ladies, I made it. Hey. Yeah, right on time to help me pick everything. Yeah, you go ahead. I just gotta. Talk to Johnny about his little trip to Jakarta and uh, I’ll be right there. Go easy on him. Okay? Yeah. Find me later. Yeah.

You were just about to tell her what I did. Stephan, right?

Erica’s such a knack for making you feel guilty. Did he learn that while studying to be a priest? I don’t feel guilty. . I don’t, I just don’t think he should have been thrown in jail. He punched me in the face. Well, because you said he was stupid enough to lose me and the baby. I thought you didn’t remember anything from last night.

Well, that’s hard to forget. It’s junk as I was,

um, by the way, uh, did we have sex?

No good.

I could call the DA’s office and tell them I no longer wish to press charges or Sean Brady. He might not be so forgiving. I know.

If you would like me to make that call, I will for you.

If you think that nailing you and your daughter makes me happy, you’re wrong. I loved my mother. Nothing that I do will bring her back to. Chanel didn’t start this, your daddy did. When he seduced her, Chanel did the seduce her, and I’m sure this wasn’t the first time he used his position to take advantage of a pretty female student.

Any good PI will have no trouble digging up his other conquests. So if you wanna blame somebody for your mother’s death, you blame him. I just had a thought. Why don’t you pull some of those strings? You’re so famous for pulling. Get you and Chanel thrown into the same joint that your other daughter’s serving.

Time in for murder. God, get this snake outta here. Don’t let her in here again. I can’t just take you upstairs. Miss Brady’s here. Who? Oh, Brady, your lawyer. Oh. Oh. Good lot to, well, you can also tell Ms. Brady that I have hard evidence that details what you did to cover up Chanel’s crime. And tell her I said good luck to her because she’s gonna need it.

What are you gawing at?

I know Eric hurt me, but I don’t think he should spend any more time in jail.

As you wish,

straight to voicemail, it’s EJ Dira. Ms. Trask, please call me back at your earliest convenience. It’s about the assault charges I filed last night.

Satisfied. Yes,

I’m willing to do what you want. But don’t you think Eric deserves to find out that he can’t get away with treating you like rubbish?

I didn’t want to witness that scene anymore than you wanted me. Fortunately I couldn’t exactly leave the room.

Well, I have good to despise pulling a price. Hmm, I know, I heard. Well, just so you know, if she thinks that that two bit bimbo lawyer of hers is gonna get her out of this one, she’s gonna be sorely disappointed. Phil Brady’s not a two bit lawyer. She’s not a bimbo. And how do you know? Because she’s my sister.

Alright, well I would stay and help with the dishes, but I actually have to run the visiting hours at Salem City Jail. Just started, I am actually going to walk out with you. Um, it’s time to pick up Henry from daycare and I also said I’d taken see Santa at Barons also. I’m gonna stop by the bakery and check on the wedding cake design for your brother’s wedding.

Wait, you’re doing the cake for Lee and Gabby’s wedding? Yes. . No . Yeah. And the man was very specific about what he wanted. Why am I not surprised? Yeah, it’s okay. I mean, he seems really excited about marrying Gabby. I’m sure you’re really excited too. Oh yeah. Excited. That’d be me.

Okay. I saw the look on your face when I showed up. You’re just about to tell Gabby what you learn. Ja. What? What I learned. What are you talking about? Look, I already talked to Ralph. He told me everything. You know it talked to my sister. She said you keep her mouth shut. She said you would too. Have you changed your mind?

Nope. I won’t say anything. You sure your dad was in on this? You seem pretty eager to get something on him. Not anymore. All right. Not after he. Lost his mom. Her revenge doesn’t appeal to me. Get that. You made the right decision. Look, I said I’d keep my mouth shut. I didn’t say I’m okay with what you did to Steph.

I’ll tell you the truth. I think it sucks. I think you suck. I don’t care what you think of me, just stay outta my way. Must be nice just going through life without a. Hey, uh, is everything okay here? Yeah. Yeah. I was just telling your, uh, your fiance here. What a lucky guy he is. I’ll see you guys.

What are you doing here? Sally? Here? No, she and Chanal are gone. Come in. How much did she hear when I called earlier? Oh, she is heard me say that I keep the secret. Ah, uh no, it, it’s okay. She thought that you and I were hooking up and I said she was right. And that we don’t want anybody to know. Nice.

That’s Allie for you. Jumping to crazy conclusions. . Well, it was worse than that. She was all for it. Well then I guess we’ll just have to keep her thinking she’s right about us. Um, anyway, the reason that I came over was because I just had a major run in with your brother. Why? He got me talking to Gabby and he thought I was about to tell her what he did.

Were you? No, no, not at first, but then she started talking about how much she loves Stephan, and I could tell she still does. And so, yeah. Yeah, for a second I thought about telling her the truth and that’s when we walked up. So she still doesn’t know anything. No. And your brother made it very clear that we would pay if she finds out, gets like.

I think it’s gonna be harder to keep the secret than we thought.

The tables are gonna look really pretty. What’d you think? I’ll just be looking at you . Who are you talking so intently with Johnny about. Oh, well he can’t believe that. We haven’t picked our honeymoon yet. Huh? We should do that tonight. I can’t wait for this wedding to happen. Me neither. You know Johnny said you were a lucky guy, but I think we’re both lucky.

Thank God I found you.

I’m so glad to see you, but. Why did that cop say he was bringing me up here to see my lawyer? Well, bell was here, but she had to take an important call. So they said we could have a quick visit until she gets back. How are you? Are they treating you all right? Oh, takes more than a jail cell to keep me down, but, uh, some idiot cop let’s Sloan come down there and glow.

She’s having quite the morning. What? What do you mean someone scribbled a murderer on the baker? Oh, what? Yep. And it’s gone now. But Sloan showed up while I was cleaning it. Oh, well, she’s still in here. You know, I, I don’t, I don’t want you to have to deal with her again. You, you can get out of it. No, no. I’m not going anywhere.

Chanel, no, I mean it. You were here for me when I needed you. You’re my mama and I love you and I am going to do the same thing for you.

That’s really your.

Then, I’m sorry if I offended you. It’s okay. So why is she just here to see Paulina then? I mean, isn’t she gonna defend you too? I asked her, but she refused. Why? Well, let’s say I got a little hostile with her husband and he ended up on the ground. You knocked him down. It’s funny, you don’t really seem like the kind of guy I do a thing like that.

It’s been a hard week. I mean, I found out some things I didn’t want to know. That’s no excuse.

Sometimes life it gets so hard to take. Yeah. And anger’s the only thing that keeps you going. Acting out on that anger. Leave you needing a lawyer, which you still do need, right?

Yes, I definitely do. So what about me?

Well, I have to take a shower and get going. I promise Holly that I’d find us a place to live today. Oof. That could take more than. Well, I can’t leave Holly with Maggie indefinitely, and I kind of miss being with her . I have an idea. Why don’t you and Holly stay here until you find something? Oh, I, I, I, I couldn’t impose after all these years, you haven’t realized that Harold and the staff do all the work,

Yeah. But you’re still grieving for Susan and you are still grieving for your hopes for you and Eric.

Yeah, misery really does love company. Unless you have a better offer than the Dira Mansion. I don’t think so.

Oh, okay. Fine. Except . Good. Good. Oh,

to New Beginnings, thank.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Go home with you. Sorry, pal. I look, I know I have had a few drinks. I am not drunk. I, okay. Calm down. I wasn’t suggesting anything lascivious. I was nearly offering you one of our many guest bedrooms. Oh well honey, are you sure or better use for them than to rest the weary head of the fellow damage saw and I wouldn’t be any trouble.

No trouble at all, truthfully told I could use the company. Okay. What the hell? Ow. Oh, you’re a little more blotter than you originally forget. Oh, lemme talk. You come here. I’m fine. No you are not. You’re a mess. Come here.

Oh God. Give me a strength. How are you doing with ej?

Leaving now? If you excuse us leaving. What the hell you going? Not it’s any of your business, but she’s coming home with me,

Jada. Don’t worry about it. Okay. All right. Just feel better. All right.

Uh, from the look on your face, I think it’s safe to say that that didn’t go well. Yeah. Trask isn’t backing down. I didn’t think she. Yeah, she’s gonna charge Paulina with this so-called coverup. So now she has to spend the night in jail. Oh, Paulina was elected like two seconds ago. The pavers are gonna have a field day with this.

Yeah, I’m sure that had nothing to do with draft’s decision. Isn’t that woman? She lives to see her name on the front page. How’s Paulina doing? Well she said she thinks she can handle whatever Sloan and craft dish out now that Chanel’s outta jail so well for now. She could still be extradited the uk. So you bet you were cut out for your counselor.

Hmm. So does Stephanie. I know she’s supposed to be some PR genius, but I don’t know how you spend this one.

Alex, what are you doing here? Well, when you canceled on our day, you said you were busy and I thought maybe you wouldn’t find the time to eat. So thank you. That is so thoughtful. And also unnecessary. See, when you told me that you were busy, I assumed with work. My bad.

Okay. Well, it’s shorthand and typing at a hundred words per minute. Shorthand and typing. Yes. I have to wear hat and gloves and fetch the boss’s coffee too. Okay. Let’s just go at this from another direction. What are you good at? Fast learner. Mm-hmm. fast fingers. Mm-hmm. , excellent fashion sense. Okay. Well, you just advised my brother that he should not wear a shirt for the rest of his life.

Exactly. Look, Sonny, I get why you can’t give me a job at Titan, but could you at least give me a reference right. Well, I know Paulina won’t, so, so we definitely have our work cut out for us. Yeah.

Sunny, I know you don’t have to be doing this and I certainly don’t deserve it, but I do appreciate it. Um, right now I have nothing better to do.

Yeah, your doppel was wrong. Sometimes my schemes actually do work. Like tonight. For instance, I wasn’t really gonna go visit EJ dressed like Susan. I just needed Brady to see me in a new light. And guess what? It worked

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

I thought, uh, you were putting Rachel to bed. Yeah, she was stalling. Her grandfather wanted her too. Tell her another story. Were you having a full on conversation with that doll? Well, I don’t know how much you heard. Just enough to be concerned.

You know, I, I took this job, right, trying to put the bad guys away, and still there’s so many of ’em out there that are just running around free. And meanwhile, I’m arresting the likes of Pauline and Chanel. I know, I know. It’s been a rush couple weeks. But you have tomorrow off, you can relax and regroup.

No, not anymore. Jada just called, she said she needs a couple days off medical leave. Is everything okay? Yeah. Yeah. She said she’s fine. She’s just recovering from a medical procedure. Really? What kind of medical procedure? What did she say? He said, I’m going home with him. Are you drunk? Passing judgment, Derek.

Whew. How? Out of character, you’re drunk and you’re going home with him. I am not drunk. And even if she were, it would be none of your damned. You know what? You stay outta this. This isn’t a good idea. You remember what happened last time? Oh, are you referring to when I slept with Xander? If you’re worried about my marriage or my reputation, well stop because it’s shot to hell.

Yep. Nicole Walker, fallen woman. Well, I’m worried about you. You, you are butting in. Yeah. Well, you remembered that was the biggest mistake of your life. She’s looking at the biggest mistake of her life. So you’re gonna double down and go home with this poly. The hell is wrong with.

What happened to that candy dish? Oh, uh, uncle Vic is watching his blood sugar.

I’m sorry. Was that your stomach? Neither that, or a small plane is coming in for. Didn’t you eat dinner yet? I’m on a budget of $0 a day. I cleared out the donuts at an AA meeting for lunch. Leo, you’re in aa? No, but they were free. Oh my God. Okay, I think I can take a hint. What? Hint? I’m gonna go talk to Cook, see if he can lift with something up.

I hope I’m not overstepping. No. I think we’re way past that point for anybody.

Oh, son, your phone

will, well, let me know what’s up. It’s Leo. That’s not what it looks like. I told Chad he could go home to his kids, but he said he’d stay. So I was just showing him how grateful I am for his health. We’re in the middle of a crisis here. What’s going on? Well, we were about to issue a PR statement for Paulina, but then, um, I normally wouldn’t share this, but it’s about to hit the news any minute now.

Pauline has been arrested for what? The DA came up with some bogus charges about a criminal coverup. It’s all just an obvious ploy to keep her name in the. , which is sort of hard to counter because, well, they’re not exactly untrue. We’ve been wrestling with a revised statement, but I, I don’t know. It’s just, it’s sounding more generic than I want it to be.

Oh. Do you think a fresh set of eyes would help, or? Well, if you’d be willing to take a look, that would be amazing. Obviously, I don’t have any other plans anymore, and I did stick my neck up to steal that file from Sloan. So I got skin in the game too, and she knows also my friend and I would love to help her and her mom.

Let’s give her a little look. Oh, what do we have here?

Oh yeah, they are in a hell of a mess.

Uh, Jada didn’t tell me what kind of procedure and honestly, it’s, it’s not really my business. Right. Well, no, I mean, I’m just asking because, um, Eric told my mom that Jada’s pregnant, she is . Wait, do you think this has something to do with the baby? Well, I mean, isn’t that likely, how many medical procedures do pregnant women have?

Do you think that, uh, what She had an abortion? No. No, no. Especially because she told my mom that she was. Going through with the baldness and Eric is so excited about being a dad. No, I just, I just hope nothing went wrong. Why don’t you just go ahead and say it, Eric? Huh? Call me a slut. I’m calling you anything.

I think he’s sleeping with EJ is a big mistake. I didn’t say I was gonna sleep with him. I said I was going home with him to his. To his guest bedroom because I don’t have a house because I blew up my marriage to be with you, and now you and RA both hate me and I’m sleeping in my office. I don’t hate you.

Of course you do because you think I talked your girlfriend into having an abortion. I just don’t know why you talked to her at all. She doesn’t have to listen to any more of your, get your hands off for her.

So what are you so concerned about? I just, you know, I think it’s a little strange you talking to inanimate objects. I mean, Rachel and I have been playing dolls so much. Uh, the Dawson, I are on a first name basis. How maternal, by the way, we got, um, Rachel’s Christmas list. She texted it to me and, uh, it’s, she texted it.

Yeah. That’s how they’re doing it these days, apparently. So, but we have all the traditional items. We have, uh, bike, we have a real pony, we have, uh, wrong. New item added to the list. Um, she says, more than anything in the world, what I want is for mommy and daddy to be married.

What? No, Sunny’s fine. He’s just in the other room getting us some food. All right. So Cook said, what are you doing on my phone? I’m talking to your husband. Well, hi. Hi. Yes. No, everything’s fine. I was just helping Leah look for some jobs online. Yes, I remember everything that he did to. But a lot, a lot has changed since you’ve been gone.

I, it’s can look. Can we just, can we talk about this? When you come home for Christmas, we’ll have snow and missile tell,

what do you mean you’re not coming home?

You put Rachel up to this, didn’t you? Of course not Every kid wants their parents to be together. Rachel’s no different. Yeah, but now she actually thinks it’s a possibility because you blackmailed your way into this house. Well, I don’t see it that way. I don’t think there’s any other way to see it.

Kristen, I’m sure you didn’t bother telling her that. She’s getting her hopes up for nothing. Okay. If I wanted to get married to you, I wouldn’t whisper it in Rachel’s Sierra. I would just make it a condition of our agreement. In another month, Marna, Kate and Kayla are gonna get sick again. I will just march you to the altar.

In exchange for the organ. It’s going cure them. Yeah. Mm-hmm. . And you’re just working your way up to that, aren’t you? No, I’m not. And I never,

Jada told me the other day that she and Eric broke off. Well, yeah, but they’re still gonna raise the baby together. I mean, Eric has always wanted to be a father and he would never ever leave Jada High and drive, but Ray said that. Ray said that Eric and Nicole back together. Yeah, having a baby is complicated, but still Eric would be a really good dad.

Now you worried about him, aren’t you? Hopefully it’s nothing. I’ll give him a call tomorrow. You wanna get outta here? Yeah, I’m gonna try to get Paul rained in the morning, so there’s not really anything else I can do here tonight. So what do you say? We, uh, drown our sorrows at small bar. Sounds like a plan.

All right, let’s go.

You don’t have to go home with him. Oh. Are you offering an alternative? A room at your dad’s bar, perhaps. Maybe next door to your ex with an axt grind. I’m trying to overlook. You beat a Dirtbag because your mom died. You keep my mother’s name out of your mouth. Where do you suggest I go, Eric? He probably thinks you should go to house if you don’t stay out of this.

I swear. Swear. What? What? Hmm? You gonna knock my block off? Go on, take a. You know, it might make you feel better to blame me for your screwed up life, but the fact of the matter is it’s all on you. You didn’t have to lose your baby. And Nicole, that was your choice.

Oh, what? Your job, your job? No, no, no. Of course, of course. I understand. Why, why wouldn’t I understand?

Look, I, I’ll talk to you later. Okay. Bye. What? No, I. Not tonight.

Sunny. I’m sorry. Yeah, me too.

Hmm.

It’s wrong. You don’t like it? Oh, what’s that smell? Oh, stinky tofu. The best I’ve ever had. Mind you. All right here in the little town of Salem. I couldn’t believe it. And you need to try it. Okay. If you start to feed her, I’m outta here. Oh, great. No, no. We have well established boundaries. Boundaries.

Hmm. I mean, that’s delicious. Maybe I’m more of a tofu fan than I thought. Ah, broadening boundaries. That’s my specialty.

Okay. So you guys have both read the statement. What do we think? I think it looks solid. We’re kind of. Tepid. I mean, I really think that you need to go on the offense here rather than just running away from the accusations. Yeah. Pauline can’t admit to anything. There’s an ongoing case. No, I’m not saying we gotta get into the details of it.

What I mean, Chad, is there anything that you wouldn’t do to protect your kids? No. No. What parent wouldn’t, I mean, at the end of the day here, isn’t that all that Pauline is really guilty. Why should she have to apologize for that? No, you’re right. She shouldn’t. You just gave me a great idea.

What the hell is wrong with you? Oh God. Are you okay? I think so. What’s going on? Your brother assaulted me. Is that true? Well, I didn’t push myself to the ground. What happened? He got his niggers in a bunch because his girlfriend had an abortion and he decided it was Nicole’s fault. Oh, here, that’s fright.

So was Nicole’s personal life. Alright. Right. All right. All right. All right. Calm down. Okay. Come on Eric. Let’s go outside. Hey, go. What? Get your hands off of me. Have you been drinking? Have you? Yeah, I had a drink so, Eric, you don’t drink anymore. What’s a choice of not an alcoholic? Tonight I chose to have a drink.

How many did he have? I don’t know. He just got here. So you had a drink and you got in a car and you drove and you came to a bar to drink more. What are you the alcohol police? No, I’m just a friend. Yeah. Like I said, let’s go outside and get a nice breath here. I said gets your hands off.

I look skeptical because I am. What’s stopping you from upping your auntie on your blackmail? Grady? When I got out of prison, you wouldn’t talk to me. You wouldn’t even look at me. And now, . I, I, I mean, I had to break through that wall somehow. And now look at us. We’re living together, we’re raising our daughter, and I’m not gonna keep giving you ultimatums.

Really? Mm-hmm. . No, I don’t wanna force you into something that, uh, you don’t want. But what we had was always real.

Right. Yeah. I, I’m glad to hear you say that. You are. I am. Because if you are since. About not wanting to manipulate me into a situation against my will. If you truly do love me and care about me, prove it and just give me the orchid.

So why isn’t we coming home for Christmas? It’s the same old stuff. He’s doing another movie for Peacock and they want the writer to be on set. They’re filming over Christmas apparently. You don’t think he’s lying, do you? No,

of course not. Well then why don’t you just go out there and see him? Because I can’t, and it’s not like he exactly encouraged it. And besides, Gabby’s already made a bunch of plans, Ferrari this winter, so.

Hi. I guess my answering your phone didn’t help. Hey, why, why did you answer my phone? Well, I, I called you and you didn’t hear me, so I thought I could let him know that you were here. I forgot. I’m kind of a trigger for him. Sonny. I swear I was not trying to make any trouble. Yeah. Well you don’t have to try Leo.

You just do.

Yeah, I’m gonna go. I, I really appreciate your help. Uh, looking at the one ads. See ya. We wave.

Why don’t you just stay for dinner? I mean, the, the food’s almost ready. That way you won’t have to have stale donuts Again,

it’s, it’s better, but it’s just, it’s still sounding a little flat to me. Hmm. It is closer though.

Do you know what’s missing? It’s pulling his voice. She would never say, my daughter, she would say My little. You’re right.

There you go. That’s perfect.

If you really want me to believe that you’re not being manipulative anymore, Kristen, if you really want me to believe that you wanna stop blackmail me by using Marlena, Kate, and Kayla’s lives. Then just give me the orchid now.

Oh, Brady, I would really love to do that, , but, um, what would stop you from kicking me out? Calling the cops and then going back to ’em is, Well, I’ll, I’ll tell you what would stop me. Number one would be Rachel’s reaction to having her father kick her mother out on Christmas and send her back to prison. As far as Chloe is concerned, I can’t go back to Chloe Kristen.

She’s with Stephan now. Yeah, but you’re, you’re gonna still move me out and, uh, that would crush Rachel. Rachel? Mm-hmm. , how are you? This living arrangement isn’t so terrible. Isn It you might, you, you really might want to ask Dad and Marlene No. And I’m asking you. I’m asking you, Brady. I mean, we’re raising our daughter together.

She’s happy. I’m happy. Isn’t there just a little part of you that’s happy too?

Oh my God. Are you okay? Yeah. Yeah, I’m okay. Two assaults in one night, and one of them an officer of the law. Aren’t you going to arrest him, officer Brady? Well, are you pressing charges? Why wouldn’t I? Well, EJ. Eric didn’t mean of course he did. Just like he meant to hurt you when he accused you of killing his baby.

You don’t owe him anything. Nicole, not a damned thing.

You’re right. I don’t if EJ wants to press charges and I’m not gonna stand in his way.

I’m sorry man. I don’t have a choice.

To teamwork. Hey, I always said three heads are better than two. Hey, cheers.

Hmm. Well, I hate to tell you this, pal. There’s only two fortune cookies. I didn’t know you’re gonna be hanging out. No worries for you. . Thank you. All right. What does your mind say here?

Help. I’m trapped inside of a Fortune cookie factory. Huh? Top that one. Wow.

What? Oh, it’s silly. Oh my God. What does it.

You’re looking at the man of your dreams.

Do you need any ice for that jaw? All I need is some ice for my scotch. Can I get you anything? Uh, no. Nothing. I think I’ve had enough for the night.

How are you doing?

Not good, Eric. I, I feel responsible for him going off like that tonight. You can’t blame yourself. You even, you agreed that I talked Jada into having an abortion that doesn’t excuse Eric’s behavior tonight. Yes, he wanted a baby, but JD didn’t. She realized that when she was talking to you, and if Eric can’t accept her choice, that’s his.

Yeah, I suppose, but coming from a woman who can’t have a child, I’d do anything to be in her shoes to be having a baby with her,

aj, my, my head is spinning. I don’t know what to think or, or how to feel. It’s just that after Eric got drunk behind the wheel and killed. D I know. I just never thought he’d drink again.

You’re worried about him. His sister is his lawyer, his brother-in-law, his arresting officer. He’s going to get off with a slap on the wrist and hopefully that’ll be the wake up calling needs,

and this is, Is a bonafide criminal and he’s getting me arrested if he pressed charges. I don’t have a choice. Bill. Can you help me here? Do something. I’m sorry I can’t.

Do I look happy? Hmm. While answering the question with a question is still an answer, Kristen, if you suddenly think that I’m just gonna decide to, to marry you, look, I’m not that delusional. No, no. I’m talking about baby steps. We could just start right now by, uh, spending the night together. That’s not a baby step.

Mm. Come on Brady. We’ve had sex before. I have never known you to turn me down. Oh, come on. Hey, now you just wanna give into your feelings. Say, screwing it. Why don’t we just go make love right now?

Oh my God. Oh my God. This one is perfect. Highly paid. Executive assistant, self-starter, organized, thinks outside the box. That is me to a t. Oh wait, it is me, , Paulina’s looking for my replacement. What? That’s not funny. I’m sorry. I just, I can confidently say that Paulina will never find anyone else like you.

You know, you’re right about it.

Right? Well, for our finished year, I should, should probably get home. Thank you for staying really. Yeah, my pleasure. Not sure how much I helped, are you kidding me? I couldn’t have done it without you, both of you.

Well, we’ll see you tomorrow. Hey, thanks for the tofu. Hey, you’re welcome man. Good night. Have a good night. Nice chat.

There’s toilet trees in the bathroom and aspirin for the headache you’re going to have in the morning. And if you would like your thing sent here, I can just, oh yeah.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Sunny boy. Which one of these should I wear camp right now? Alex, I’m in the middle of a game. Oh, I need your help.

Wait. No, no, no, no, no. Alex. Alex, come on, man. And all of humanity is destroyed. Thanks to you. Oh my God, you’re such a nerd, dude. Please just tell me which one I should wear. Why do you always do this? You’re a grown ass adult, can’t you dress herself? Yeah, I’m pretty damn good at it, but I’m having another date with Stephanie.

I don’t want any mistakes, so please just tell me which one of these I should wear. Neither.

So how’s that? Chris Muscle is coming along there, kiddo. Good, good. May I take a peek? It’s not finished. Jack. No peeking. All right, mind, never mind. And how about you? What would you like for Christmas, young lady? Oh, my present’s already on the. I knew grandbaby. Mm, no greater gift than that. I’m so happy for Eric.

I mean, I know this situation is terribly complicated, but he’s always wanted a child, and when this baby arrives, he will be over the moon.

Hey, Jada, you. I just wanna see how you were doing.

Jada, if you’re listening, I just wanted you to know that I’m here for you if you need anything. Anything at.

Hey.

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

You look lucky. You just shall ghost. Isn’t that where you are now? Don’t be so silly. Could a coach do?

I, I don’t, I don’t know. I don’t know. Um, how is this even possible? Oh, I know, I know, I know. You think that I died in a car crash. I don’t, I don’t think that I, people saw the car explode. You were in it. Hell is Elvis fresh one shit. Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated. Yeah, that was Mark Twain.

I know. I don’t say, I think it was the King Brady. Yeah. Oh. He tricked the world into thinking that, uh, he met his maker. And you know what to,

oh, thanks. I. I was gonna call you sooner. I am. I’m so sorry about your mother. I appreciate that. Not something tells me that’s not the reason why you’re upset.

No, it’s not. I’ll take a wild guess and say that it’s about Eric.

What makes you say that? Well, I’d say Wild guess is a bit of a mis. And I saw your soon-to-be ex-husband the other night. Oh yeah.

Did he tell you the whole sorted story? Rafe told me that you were leaving him for Eric and that there might already be trouble in Paradise. He didn’t divulge what that trouble might be, but I assume that’s the reason for your upset. If you want to talk about it, you, Jesus. It’s a long story. I heard nothing but time.

Can I join you?

Hey Eric. I think you bartended folded a disappear act. I’m sorry about that. What can I get you? Scott Schmid. Hey, this is on the house. Hey, thanks. You have no idea how much I needed this after the day I’ve. Yeah, I knew what you mean.

Seriously, if you really wanna impress him, when I say go shirtless with a chest like that, anybody, it’d be putty in your hands. Who invited this horn ball? Well, if you must know, I came with my own, of course. Great. Well now you can leave, but I have a proposition for you. Yeah. The answer is no. So please feel free to see yourself out.

Go. Okay, see, this is the exact opposite of go. And here it is now, Alex K. What I’m about to show you is going to blow your mind.

Just fix this sentence there. What do you think? I think this is just about ready for print, but let’s read it again out loud just to make sure. Okay. Governor Elect Price maintains the charges against her daughter are politically motivated. She has no doubt the matter will be resolved well before January when she’ll be sworn in as the next governor of this great.

Sounds good to me. Great. Let’s pack it in. Yeah, just in time for me to meet Alex, you have another date.

Hi Abe. Tell Paulina we’re just about to send out that.

Oh my God. When did this happen?

Okay, I’m on it. Bye. What’s going on? Pauline has been arrested

so. What do you think?

Let me get this straight. Leo. You want me to hire you as my executive assistant? Is that not clear from the presentation? Can your brother not read? Oh, I can read. I just can’t believe you actually have the nerve to ask me to hire you for a job after the way you tormented my baby brother. Someone did not get the memo.

Your baby brother and I are buds now. We’ve put all that behind us, right? Jackson? Hmm. It’s a work in progress, huh? I have plenty of experience. I just left my position as executive director of candidate Affairs for the Governor Elect. I was instrumental in her victory. Think of the wonders I could do for you.

Yeah. I already have an assistant Leo, and even if I didn’t, I would still never hire you. But don’t you need someone to tell you what shirt to wear? I could be that guy. I have impeccable taste, obviously. And I would be available to you whenever at your beck and call 24 7. Yeah. And that way I could play my video games in peace.

It’s a win-win. So, what do you say, boss? Tempting. But it’s a hard no, it’s a regular, no. Now, if you would, excuse me, I have a date to get ready for.

Stop it. Just stop. This is not about you and I not being able to have a baby together.

Come out watching. About you going to Jada.

I broke a trust. I can’t be undone,

can’t go back. Jada’s baby is gone now and I have to find a way to live.

And I’m happy for Eric too, even though. The situation is complicated. Just like you said, you well, having babies makes complicated situations pretty uncomplicated. Hmm. I can’t finish. Oh boy. I’m telling you. Put a lot of work into that list and I can’t wait to see it. So lemme see what we got here. Number one.

Ooh, a dream house for Granny Marmar. Do you know? It’s okay for you just to call me Grandma. Mommy said you liked that name. Mommy’s confused. Let’s see what else we have here. Um, we have a pony, huh? Real? Not stuck. . Duly noted. Real pony. What? We have number three. We, Hmm. What is it? What I want most for Christmas is for.

My mommy and daddy to get married.

This is unbelievable. I wish

one turf cookie. You didn’t think you were gonna get rid of me, so easy. Did you ? Does Marlena know? Oh, well, you know, I haven’t spoken to Dr. Marlena Evans, but Oh, I’ll just, I’ll just call her. Call her. Yeah. What? I’m sure she’s super busy, so there is no need to bother with that. No, it’s not gonna be a bother.

She’s probably gonna come right home as soon as she hears about this. Well, Brady. No. No, Brady. Brady. It’s me.

What the what? What the hell is wrong with you?

I’m shocked and I can’t believe Paulina got charged. I’m shocked too. I figured there wasn’t enough evidence, especially since she wasn’t charged right away. Well, maybe Trashcan and Scotland Yard were just biting their. Building their case or maybe they were waiting for just the right moment to humiliate her.

I can’t even imagine she and Chanel are both going through right now. That’s so unfair. Chanel obviously mean to kill that poor woman. It was, it was an accident, and Holly knew was just trying to shield her young daughter from a scandal like any mother would. What do you wanna do? Well, first on the list, we scrap our statement and start all.

When mommy and daddy get married, I’m gonna be the flower girl at their wedding. Well, you know, sweetheart, uh, weddings aren’t a thing that Santa Claus can deliver. Why not? He’s giving you a grand baby. Oh, fuck. Can’t you listen pretty well? I, I think what Granny Marmar is trying to, I mean, grandma, I think what I think what.

He’s trying to say here is that when, when two people decide to get married, it’s up to them not, not not Santa Claus. Well, it’s gonna happen. How can you be so sure? Mommy told me. Mommy told you that she and your daddy are getting married. She said it was very possible. Well, the thing is that all kinds of things are possible.

I just don’t want you to get disappointed. You know, because not, not all mommies and daddies are married. I know, but my mommy and daddies will be, huh.

Damnit Chris, what are you, what do you do at pretending to be. I just wanted to see if I could still pull it off. And based on your reaction, I passed with flying colors. Yeah, way to go. I mean, you must be really proud of yourself. You dressed up as a dead woman. Is this just for kicks or No? No, of course not.

I just, I needed to practice before I visited dj, I’m sorry, you, I’m sorry. You’re gonna visit EJ as his recently deceased mother. Well, he and I are still on the outs since I sided with Gabby over him, and I thought since I can’t console him as his sister, perhaps I could as his mother,

Kris. Have you completely lost your mind? So Jada had an abortion and Eric blames you. That’s the gist. Why? Because you had one conversation with a woman. He believes that I talked her into it, and that was not my intention. At least I didn’t think it was. I dunno, maybe, maybe deep down is what I really wanted for Eric and Jada not to have the spawn for the rest of their lives.

Look, even if that were true, it’s not as if you drove Jada to the clinic and forced her to get the procedure at gunpoint. In the end, the decision was hers, but he still thinks I shouldn’t have stuck my nose. He has to know you’ve never been one to keep your opinions to yourself. Well, maybe I should have this time.

It’s ironic, you know, I thought things would be better between Eric and me if there were no baby and now there’s no baby and things are worse, much worse. And I don’t think there’s any coming back from it.

Dude, you’re looking at that. Drink the way I usually look at women. Yeah. It’s been a while. Ah, I’m sorry. No, I’m not an alcoholic. I just, I don’t drink anymore. Right. Well if you are just gonna stare at it, I’d be happy to take it off your hands. . All meats. Rosses. Hmm. Listen, I’m glad we got this little chance to talk.

The Bella Magazine cover was a monster hit. I already told Brady I can’t wait to get you and Nicole back on the cover again. So how fast can we get the two of you back in the studio? Cause I don’t think that’s a good idea. Are you kidding me? Bella hasn’t gotten buzz like this in years. Listen, I, I I don’t wanna see you repeat yourself.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I, I want to continue the. I mean the people are itching to see you and Nicole back together. Yet, Alex, you don’t. No. Listen, I know it’s not the right season, but I’m thinking for the next issue we go swim with, people are dying to break the winter blues. Are you comfortable on the speed off?

Well, it really doesn’t really matter what you mean. Wear as long as it’s you and Nicole back in that comfort again. That’s all that matters. People are calling you the perfect couple. You know you got people online calling you Eric Cole. It’s wild. Shut the hell up.

I can’t believe your brother turned me down, poured my heart and soul into that presentation. Yeah. Well, I mean, you gave it a good old call. It’s try. Maybe next time don’t include the photos of you in a bubble bath. I was just trying to show that I have, you know Yes. Well I could see your through the bubbles.

Damnit. I don’t know what I’m gonna do now. I’ve been pounding the pavement for days. It’s my only option is to take that job at Buddy’s Burger Barn. Hey, I mean a job’s job. This head was not meant to wear a paper hat. But you’re right, that might be my only option. Thanks for trying to cheer me up. I’ll see ya.

Leo, Wayne. God. Um, look, I’m, I’m pretty much recovered now, which means I will be going back to being CEO and when I do, I will need an a.

What are you saying, Jackson? Oh my gosh. You’re actually gonna make me say it. Um, okay. How do you feel about working for me at Titan?

Dude, What is your problem? You need to get in your head that I’m a photographer, not a model. Yeah, but there will be no more covers than Nicole me. Do you understand? I understand that you want the one that makes the decisions, and I hope you recognize that. I can just go over your head with this because Nicole and Brady are the ones in charge.

Nicole, be opposed to this just as much as I am. If not, how quick you’re gonna quit. Really? You would really do that. Yeah. If I’m forced. Why, what, what, what is going on? Let something happened in between you two. Did you guys hook up?

Nicole?

It seems to me that emotions are running high right now. I’m sure As soon as Eric calm down, he’ll realize that Jada’s decision is not your fault. You don’t underst. This is no longer just about the baby, which was bad enough. Then what’s it about? Lots of ugly things were said. Things that neither one of us can come back from.

Even if they were said in the heat of the moment. Sometimes you cross a line and there is no going back.

Well, I can relate to that.

I crossed the line and my mother’s dead.

Kristen. Kristen, look at me. Listen to me. Listen to me. You can knock over to E J’s dress as his deceased mother. Number one. He is gonna see right through it. Number two, that’s really cruel. I thought it would be just the. It would be an act of mercy. How do you figure that? Well, Tony said that EJ blames himself for Susan’s death.

I thought I would appear as this vision of his dearly departed mother to use his mind, assure him that her death wasn’t his fault. I didn’t know that. That was your your plan, huh? Can’t believe I’m saying this, but that actually might be helpful to him. I don’t. Surprisingly compassionate of you, given that he just fired you.

Well, he is my brother

even. So, given that you, uh, you used three human lives as bargaining ships to get me back into your life and you blackmailed me into breaking up with Chloe, and we all know that’s the tip of the iceberg of the criminal activity that you’ve been a part of. It’s still very surprising to me that you would be that selfless.

I mean, I admit that I haven’t behaved all that honorably lately, but I’m completely evil. I mean, maybe this is a chance for me to balance the scales. Hell, he’s still little, little.

May you watch Frosty now? Well, you certainly may. Sweet.

Grandma and I, we, we just, uh, want you to know that no matter what happens with your mommy and daddy, they love you very much no matter what, just like we do. You got that? Got it. , enjoyful, frosty honey.

Hi. I’m telling you, doc Kristen is just stooped to a new low, giving this little girl’s hopes all up about something’s never gonna happen. Are you sure about that? What do you mean? Are you sure it’s never going to happen? What are you talking about, doc? You can’t really think that’s on the table. We both know how she manipulates people and events.

I mean, she managed to get Brady to break up with Chloe. She managed to get him to invite her to live at the townhouse. What makes you think she won’t manipulate him into marriage? If that’s the case, then you and I gotta figure out a way to stop her. I agree. How do we do that?

I don’t believe it. You would hire me back. Hey, surely you’re not forgetting that you falsely accused me of sexual harassment along with a bunch of other terrible things that you have done. No, I have not forgotten, but I have. Forgive him because I have a heart As big as all the outdoors that you do, j.

Not to mention a truly adorable smile, not to mention a boatload of other winning and glasses. Let’s not get carried away. Okay? Okay. I will stop the gushing. It’s just that, uh, I’m very touched and very grateful that you would make this offer. But, um, what about the optics? Let’s, I have a PR team. They’ll handle the messaging and like I said before, I couldn’t care less what people think.

Not even your. Not even your Uncle Vic who thinks I am the scum of the earth and hates me with a vengeance. Okay, well when you put it like that, uh, yeah. That old curmudgeon would kill you. Yeah, no. Or he’d fire me, which means we would both be out of Aja. True. Well, thanks for the offer, . It means more than you know, that you would consider me like that, that you would want to help me in that way.

You know, maybe I still can. How? Take your laptop back out. We’ll comb for the Wanted ads. Maybe you missed something. Come on. Fine. Let’s comb. Okay. I am almost done with the intro. Uh, . Cool. I think I’m gonna flip these last two paragraphs. Yeah. Yeah, that’s a great idea.

Aren’t you supposed to be going to dinner with Alex? Uh, yeah, but I, I still have some time. Things must be going well for you too. Yeah, he um, he even surprised me with a romantic Thanksgiving dinner. It was, it was very sweet.

I guess he’s, uh, not all that bad after all. No, he’s not. He, he actually turned out to be a really great guy. Good. I’m happy for you.

I’m right, aren’t I? Something happened between you and the gun of your business. It’s not my business. You two are both my shining stars. Yeah. Well, not anymore. I told you there’s not gonna be any more covers. Yeah, but understand that just, I mean, really do yourself a favor and let it go. Okay. Fine. You got it.

But just so you know, for a former priest, you got some rage issues.

I’m gonna go wait for my date over there.

I, I was so bloody certain that I could get my mother back without having to pay the ransom. I mean, how hard could it be to outsmart Ava Vitali? Right. The problem with playing games with Ava is that she’s out of her mind. Mm-hmm. , I know firsthand it’s impossible to anticipate what Ava would do next. Let me.

You are going to tell me that this isn’t my fault, just like everyone else. Oh, no, no, no, no. But maybe it’s your fault. Just like maybe it’s my fault that Jada got rid of Eric’s baby.

Oh, makes sense. Right. Since both you and I had a history of being our own worst enemies, a tendency. Self destruct, yet we still haven’t managed to learn our lesson.

How the hell did we get so screwed up that my friend? It’s the million dollar question. Oh, yes.

Well, I guess it’s time to take the shell on the road. Kristen. No, no. You listen. You can’t what I thought you understood. Look, it seems that you, it seems your heart is in the right place for a change. Okay? But it’s not a good idea. Like I said before, EJ will probably figure it out. He’ll know it’s you.

It’ll scar him. He’ll probably hate you forever. I think it’s a terrible. Terrible idea to ease his suffering, to do something kind for Susan and him, I mean, Brady, to think of, wow, how I treated that, that woman all these years, I mean, praying on her innocence, her big, generous heart.

And now that she’s gone, I. I am never gonna get a chance to say I’m sorry, and to thank her for all that she’s done for me.

You know what? I’m really gonna miss her.

Okay.

So what’s going on here?

As the investigation moves forward, we encourage everyone to keep an open. Yeah, but still not stretching the right time. Not quite. Okay. Try cutting that line

and that one too

better. It’s getting there. Definitely still needs work. What about your date with Alex?

Hey, Steph. You on your way? I’m really sorry. Hey, we’re crisis suddenly came up. I’m stuck here at the office. Oh, bummer. Can I get a rain check? Of course. Thanks for understanding. I’ll text you later. All right, sounds good. Good luck.

I need to get the hell outta here.

Shall we get another round wellow in our own misery a little bit longer? Ooh. Uh, as much as I would love to, um, I should get going. I need a, a place to stay tonight. What do you mean? Well, since I told Rafe that I was moving on with another man, seemed kind of awkward to be living in the same house, so I’ve been staying in my office.

What about Holly? She’s staying with Maggie until I find a suitable place for us, which I thought would be with Eric. Do you know how that story turned out? Well, you person stay with Maggie too.

in the house with Victor. I think not. Someone would either end up electrocuted or pushed out a second story window, . And since my couch in my office is killing my back, I’m probably just gonna check into the Salem.

You could come home with me.

Uh, Kristen and I were just reminiscing about Susan. . I see. How was dinner with your grandparents at ice cream for dessert? Ooh, in the winter. Wasn’t, wasn’t too cold. Nope. Well, then we’re gonna have to spend a little more time brushing your teeth tonight, right? All right. It’s time for bed. Come on, we gotta go camp John.

Hmm? Can you tell me a bedtime story? You do the best voices. That’s a f. Goodnight, grandma. Goodnight. And I’ll see you and you tuck me in, mommy. Ah, you sure will. My little angel. Okay, let’s go.

I know that, look, you are about to bore me with one of your tedious lectures, aren’t you? No. No lecture. But I do think it’s time that you and I had a talk. And here we go.

Christmas elf. I do look good in tights. Mm-hmm. , but I hate Children. Pass. Okay. Um, . Okay. What about the, uh, the manager of domestic sales at Basic Black? I think that was closed old job. Those bitches turn me down once. I am not crawling back to them. Hard pass. All right. Oh, what about this book Illustrator?

Mm, I don’t know. Kind of seems at a left field. Why? How It’s perfect. You love art Plus, I mean, you’re really good at it. Tho those photos of those paintings you showed me on your phone, they were like, Impressive as hell. Do you remember those? Yeah, of course I do. You’re really talented, Leon, huh? Okay, well in that case, put that one down as a maybe.

Here we go. Maybe M A Y N. I know how to spell me.

We can’t send this out. It’s still not right. And maybe we should just sleep on it. There’s no time. By morning everyone will know about the arrest if we don’t stay ahead of the narrative. Now we’re gonna be behind the curve. I think we need to start over. Oh, okay. No, I can do this. It’s fine by yourself?

Yes. Yes. You should go home. It’s almost time to put the kids to sleep anyway. I got it.

No, no, no. Jack can handle the kids. This is too important. Okay. I really don’t mind. I do. And you do this by yourself. You’re gonna beat her all night. Two of us get done half the time. Are you sure? I. I am not a band ship. You gave up your day with Alex. We’re in this together. Thank you, God.

You keep brushing. Okay? And I’ll look for monsters under your bed.

Hey. I think you’re looking for monsters in the wrong place. All right, dad, look, if this has anything to do with what you saw, come on kid. What? Don’t you just talk to me. What the hell is going on with you and Kristen? There’s nothing going on. Okay. She was upset about Susan. I was just consoling her a little bit.

It’s no big deal. Yeah, and you’re so sure about that, aren’t you, dad? I was just trying to put my anger aside for a moment, you know, just for the sake of peace, just for Rachel’s sake, I’m not gonna fall for her again. So wait, hell, that’s gonna happen. I promise you that.

I understand that you are filling Rachel’s head with ideas of you and Brady getting married. Oh, and what’s wrong with that? What’s wrong with that? Well, it’s manipulative to start. And you’re also setting your daughter up for a lot of disappointment. Well, she won’t be disappointed if Brady and I actually do get married.

Like I know that you’re used to your schemes blowing up in your own face, but now you’re involving somebody else who’s going to get hurt. So please stop. I’ll take that under. Hey Doc, my Priscilla, the pig voice isn’t up to snuff apparently. Would you mind joining us, please? Duty calls Grandma . Well, I guess we’ll have to finish this little chat some other time.

Yeah, your doppelganger was wrong. Sometimes my schemes actually do work. Like tonight, for instance, I wasn’t actually going to visit EJ dressed like Susan. I just, I just needed to get Brady to see me in a different light. And guess what? It works like a charm. Go home with you. Oh, sorry. Sorry. Absolutely not.

Look, I might have had a few, but I am not drunk. I Alright, calm down. I, I wasn’t suggesting anything lascivious. I was merely offering you one of our many guest bedrooms.

Oh, okay. Are you sure? Hmm. What better use for them then to rest the weary head of a fellow? The damaged. And I wouldn’t be any trouble. No trouble at all. Truth be told, I could use the company. Okay. What the hell, right?

you appears to be a lot more blo than you first, or Hold on one second. One second. Let me help you get any help.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 I miss you so much. Well, at least we got to have Thanksgiving together, right? Wasn’t enough. I started missing you as soon as it was over. Me too. Are you. Did I pick a bad time to come? No, I, there’s never a bad time to see you. And what is it? It’s just that. On Thanksgiving, when I went back to my cell for the first time, I felt like I’m never gonna get outta here.

I told you all interview requests. Go to my assistant first. Yes, I know I don’t have an assistant anymore. Figure it out. Oh, Abraham. Oh, it’s so good to see a friendly face. . Well, the press is hounding you, huh? Oh, I try to talk policy, but all those vultures want to ask me about is you now. Oh, I’m so sorry, sweetheart.

Oh, that’s okay. That’s okay. My poor babies all as I think about anyway, but I have had an epiphany. Oh, really? About. , the one Sure Fire way to help Chanel out of this situation. Oh, well that’s great. That’s great. Can I help? I mean, I’ll, I’ll do whatever you need. Oh, well I’m glad to hear that because you are the only one who can do it.

Do what? . It’s simple Fire Melinda Trask.

Okay. What the, you looking for an assault charge counselor? No, actually, I’m looking for you. You’ve been ignoring my calls and you’re holding my client without an arraignment or a bail hearing. It’s outrageous and unethical and you’re not gonna get away with it. Tommy Moore.

Eric, I told you I don’t wanna talk Jada. It’s not Eric.

Okay. Hey, now look, I know it’s really early to be talking about morning sickness, but I want you to be prepared. I used this tea during all of my pregnancies and it was a godsend, and I hope it works the same for you. That’s, that’s very kind of you. But, um, I’m not planning on having any morning sickness.

Okay, look, I know you’re really tough, and I know your wrist is toxic, but you’re not going to be able to will this away. All right? Well, you’re gonna find out soon enough, so no, you, you don’t understand. Uh, I’m not going to have morning sickness because I’m not going to have a baby. I ended my pregnancy.

What did you say to Jada? To Jada? Just tell me the truth. Did you encourage her to have an abortion? I can’t believe you’re asking me. I asked her the question, yes or no. Did you push her to terminate that pregnancy? Is that what that bitch told you?

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

Stop it. Stop trying to make Jayden the bad guy. Well, if she’s accusing me, she’s not accusing you. I’m asking you a question. Whoa. Whatever it is. She’s obviously lied about our conversation. She said you asked her why she would wanna have a baby that would tie her to me forever. What was an honest question?

Wait a minute. Is she suggesting that I told her to get an abortion and you believed it? Oh, no, no, no, no. I’m gonna settle this. I’m gonna clear things up with her. That’s, no, there’s no point. Of course, there’s a point. I’m not gonna let her walk around and tell lies about me, making me sound like some kind of maniac, telling her that I, I want her to get an abortion.

I mean, there’s no point in you going over there to tell her what you meant. It’s too late, too late. She had an abortion. Nicole

Baby’s gone.

You ended your pregnancy. Eric and I were planning to have the baby, but I changed my mind. And if you don’t understand, then no. I, I, I understand if, if that’s what you wanted to do, I, it’s so judgment Jada. I am just surprised because when we first talked to you, were conflicted with this Thanksgiving. You seem set.

What happened?

I mean, the longer I thought about it, even though I was gonna be sharing a baby with Eric, still I’d be alone half the time. I’d be raising that child as a single mother and have full-time job. It was just, it would just be too difficult for me. And also being tied to Eric.

She’s joking, right? You, you actually expect me to fire Melinda Trask, so she can’t carry through on prosecuting Chanel. I am dead serious, Abraham. Sloan Peterson is harnessing that woman’s hatred from me, uh, to railroad my daughter. I, I understand. So then you can see why this is the only answer. Maybe I can’t do anything about Sloan, but a pink slip from you would end the threat from that heartless DA for good.

So can you make that? No, no. Pauline, I’m sorry. I can’t fire Melinda Trask. Oh, such dramatics Ms. Brady. A bit over the top. If you asked me, you might wanna tone it down once we’re in the courtroom. What courtroom You’ve been holding Chanel and limbo since the minute you had. She’s in prison awaiting trial.

The courts are just a little backed up right now. Last time I checked this was America. She has a right to a fair and speedy trial and, and this entire alleged crime didn’t even happen in this country. Well, I’ve been working very closely with Scotland Yard on this prosecution. Since the perpetrator is using my jurisdiction to evade responsibility, not to mention any of the subsequent laws that may have been broken in Salem to keep this cover up going.

We both know why you’re holding her without bail, and so you can feast on all this publicity, right? It’s not every day you get to prosecute the governor’s daughter. A woman is dead, Ms. Brady and the Governor elect might be involved. And so what? Now you track me down to. Whine about it. Your client deserves better.

You know what? Actually she doesn’t. Now, if you excuse me, I am late for lunch.

Did I go overboard with the food? I just felt like I needed to do something. You’re here. That’s enough. Doesn’t feel like. But at least I can look you in the eyes and tell you that you are not going to be here forever. You don’t know that. Well, I do know that you have so many people who love you, and we are going to do everything we possibly can to get you out of this.

Hey, no, my time can’t be up. I have 30 minutes. Uh, Chanel has another visitor.

What is she doing here?

You must be the girlfriend. I’m Sloan Peterson. Yeah, I know who you are because she even allowed to be back here. It’s up to Chanel. You say the word no, escort Ms. Peterson right back out. Up to you. So Chanel please tell her to go. You do not owe her anything. No, it’s fine. Let’s hear what she has to say.

You sure you’re gonna say?

I guess I should say thank you. But I’m not really feeling that grateful. It’s things that you slept with my father and murdered my mother. We’ve never formally been introduced Chanel Dupre. I’m your worst nightmare.

Chanel didn’t murder anybody. What happened to your mother was an accident. Well, I am so glad you think so, but just because you’re sleeping with the defendant doesn’t make her innocent. Okay. Listen, there was nothing accidental about the way my mother met her in. I know the full story. Chanel was tricked by your mother to go up to that roof, and then things got tense and she fell.

So why don’t you just leave Chanel. Such passion. I can see why you like her, but you and I know the real truth about what happened, don’t we? Chanel, why are you here? Because I needed to see if you would lie to my face the same way you’ve lied to everybody else about what happened that night.

I’m sorry for your loss. I really am, and I would give anything to change what happened that day, but it’s way more complicated than you think. Complicated, huh? I read the initial police report. You know, you told the campus authorities that it was your fault that night, and then after you had. Sleep on it and think about it.

All of a sudden it was an accident. That’s not how it happened. My words were misinterpreted. Oh, sure. They were. Maybe by now you’ve even convinced yourself that it was an accident. Remember, your mother convinced you. I mean, she sure did work hard to cover it up.

It must be nice to have a mother that works that hard to fight for you. My mother would have until you took her away.

The district attorney serves at your pleasure, right? You do the hiring and firing well technically. I can

theoretically, who would I put in her place? Bell seems like a smart cookie sale. I’m would be lucky to have such a qualified da. So you want me to rig her case by hiring her, her own lawyer to prosecute her? No. Well it sounds bad when you put it that way. It is bad. Okay. Okay, fine. Well just find someone else.

Appoint the cast of law ought to Salem for all I care. Just get rid of Melinda Trash. Sorry, as before she. Anymore to hurt my baby.

Move out of my way. Please. No, your lunch is gonna have to wait. I don’t know what you expect to happen here. I have said everything I have to say. Oh my God, Melinda, is this really the hill you wanna die on? You wanna punish some young woman for an accident that happened years ago in another country? Yeah.

Well, the British government may still wanna file extradition papers for Ms. Dupree. In the meantime, they’ve asked us to ensure that she doesn’t disappear, and yet you’re not willing to make that argument in front of a judge in open court. You think I’m purposely slowing down the wheels of justice? You filed to put a stay on a bail hearing and then made sure the busiest judge on the circuit got it late on a Friday afternoon.

Judge Ellis made a fair ruling. He rubber stamped your request just like you knew he would. Okay, looks like you figured me out. Okay. Too bad there’s not much you can do about it. Yeah. Yeah, you’re right. Mm-hmm. . Oh wait.

Are you. I’m fine. Well, it’s okay not to be.

I’m not gonna cry over Eric or my decision. I’m convinced it was what I, I needed to do.

Did Eric try to stop you from terminating the pregnancy? I didn’t give him a chance. I just told him a little while ago after it already happened.

So how does he react?

Shea had an abortion. That’s right. She did.

And you think it’s my fault You confronted her, didn’t you? No, I didn’t confront her. I just talked to her. That’s all. And I certainly didn’t talk to her about doing this. I, she didn’t even mention she was considering it. Maybe that’s because she wasn’t until after she spoke to you. Wasn’t even part of the conversation.

We didn’t even discuss it as a possibility. Eric, did you try talking her out of it? No, because by the time she told me she had already gone through with it. She didn’t consult you? No. You were the last person who spoke to her before she made a decision. Eric, I swear I did not put that. Why did you even speak?

Why

this pregnancy is loving your damn business?

A wri of habeas corpus, huh? Mm-hmm. manning you to appear in court and justify your reasons for holding Chanel in Definit. I know what it says. Good. Then you’ll also know that you’ll have to appear in front of an impartial judge. My client has constitutional rights, and you are duty bound to explain why you’ve decided to take them all away.

You think they’re so damn smart, don’t you? I think I’m doing what’s right for my client. Ms. Dupree is getting bail today. Madam da. Can I give you a ride to the courthouse?

Sloan, I would give anything for your mother to still be alive. True. You would to get yourself off the hook because she didn’t deserve what happened to her. Which part? Because your assault on my mother didn’t start on that roof. It started the first day that you hooked up with my father. Did. You didn’t care that he was married when you started sleeping with him?

I did, but he didn’t seem. And I, I tried to put it outta my head and I was really young and it just happened. Nothing just happens. You made it happen. No. Hell she did. Your father was the adult in the situation. You stay out of this. It, it wasn’t something that I was looking for. He pursued me. So you were the innocent girl and he was the predator is.

Did your mama give you that talking point? Or maybe it was your lawyer? Let’s not pretend like you were a child. You were of age. I was in college. You were an adult living in a foreign country all by yourself. Okay. I’m, I’m not saying that I’m proud of the affair, but he was the married one. Well then if you knew it was wrong, why did you keep doing it?

Because,

I dunno. Don’t know why you kept going back to that rooftop to meet him time after time after time. Like you didn’t know he had a wife. Like you didn’t know he had a family. Don’t play innocent like you didn’t want it. Like you didn’t set out to take everything from her. Stop it. Just stop it. Leave her.

Are you really asking me how this is any of my business? Yes. I’m asking you We’re together, Eric. Oh my God. And this isn’t some minor issue. Can you imagine how I felt when I showed up at the pub on Thanksgiving and heard you declare that you were planning on raising Jada’s baby together? And I told you that you told me.

I was the last to know when I told you that I didn’t know that you already knew because you were spying on us on Thanksgiving day. I wasn’t spying. I came there to see you and what I found was you and Jada celebrating that she decided to have your baby. And you know what? It didn’t, this didn’t look like a couple that had broken up.

It looked like it looked like.

It looked like a couple getting back together. Okay? So I wanted to find out what was going on. So you didn’t think about coming to meet with that question. Do you really wanna do this? Do what? You happened to run into me that night at the square. That’s when you told me Jada was going to keep her baby.

You know why? I can’t help but. So I wasn’t there. When were you planning on telling me?

Eric was surprised when I told him he had wished that he was a part of the decision and he wasn’t, because I, I was afraid that he was gonna talk me out of it. I mean, he insists that he wouldn’t, but it’s just a lot cleaner this way. Well, I’m, I’m very sorry you had to go through it alone. I’m used to being on my own.

Did you talk to, to anyone else before you made the choice? Actually, I did have one conversation about it. He’s a friend. The last person I call a friend, the decision to have the baby was between Jada and me and everyone at the Thanksgiving table. Just not me. You got sick, cold. It all happened just in the moment.

All I know is what I saw, and I thought I might be losing you. So I wanted to find out what Jada’s intentions were. So I asked her if she was ready for this baby to be linked to you and to her forever. Even though you were with me, and that’s all you said, that’s all you asked of her? No, no. I talked to her about what it was like being a single mother.

I made it all out to be a terrible fate. Didn’t sugar coat it? I told her it was hard because it is, but he didn’t do it to scare her off. Yeah. Well, according to Jada, she said she gave her a friendly reminder that you weren’t going.

Oh, that’s true, isn’t it? I was just being honest. Come in, Nicole. You’re not being honest. Now I’m saying that you said all this in innocence to a woman whose obviously conflicted about going through with her pregnancy. I didn’t know she was conflicted and ha, I’m not pretending anything, Eric. Hell, you’re not.

Obviously, you know, your words can sway Jada’s decision about getting an abortion or getting rid of the child in which she. You got exactly what you want. Didn’t you

please tell me that Nicole didn’t pressure you into getting an abortion? No. No, she didn’t. But she did paint a pretty harsh picture of what single motherhood would look like, which made you rethink having your. Huh, whatever her motives were, uh, it really helped me to reevaluate the pros and cons. You know, I have, I have friends that say that having a child is the best thing that ever happened to them.

And one day I would love to be a mother. I really would just not like this. You know, not now you actually. I went over to scare your ex-girlfriend into ending her pregnancy. What else am I supposed to think? Oh, you were the last one who talked to her before she made a decision. Actions have consequences, Nicole, but you never learn, do you?

What does that mean? It means over and over you act impulsively without thinking.

Are you talking about me jumping into bed with Xander? Oh my God. How would you even be bringing him up? Well, because this whole speech about my impulse, is it just sitting in the holster? No, I think the reason you assume I pushed Jada into her choice. It’s because deep down you. Don’t trust me.

I am never gonna be good enough for you. Emma. Stop with a self pity. Would you self pity? It’s not, I’m not feeling sorry for myself. If anything, I’m feeling guilty. You know what? Yes. I was feeling threatened by Jada’s pregnancy and yes, you know what? I was hoping that she wouldn’t keep the baby there. I said it.

I would do anything for you for Chanel, then fire the witch. You put my daughter behind bars. I would do it if I thought it would make things better for her. Would you hurt her? Abraham? She would send Chanel to prison for life if we let her. I can’t let that happen. And we won’t. We won’t. I promise you, but, but if I did this, the press.

All over it. They’d be all over you and the city council would impeach me. Oh, let them try. All Ians have been sent to prison for less. Now if we, if we try to help with Chanel in this way, that we’d be, we’d be in the cell right next to her.

Hold on to this one. Chanel, she’s passionate, loyal, a lot younger than my dad. You leave her out of this. I’m paying her a compliment. If only you’d have figured out you liked girls a little bit sooner, maybe my mother would still be here. What do you want me to say, Sloan? I’ve already said I shouldn’t have had the affair, but that doesn’t change the fact that your dad had all the power in our relationship.

And Y all your anger and all your bitterness isn’t going to change that. Do I sound bitter? I’m sorry. That kind of comes with the territory when you find out that your mother’s suicide was a murder that’s. Look, I’m sorry that you had to find out the way that you did. You are sorry. Once you moved on with your life, did you ever stop to take a minute to think about how my brother and I were doing, how we were handling our mother’s death?

Enough? Will you just leave her alone? No, I won’t. Not until I get an answer. I want to know. Chanel, did you ever stop and think for a second what it felt like to us to watch our father slowly drink himself to death?

I didn’t think so, and it was all because he was holding in that terrible secret that he didn’t reveal to us that he was on his deathbed. His death bed.

I’m sorry. Yeah, I heard you the first time. For someone who says, a have no power, be sure to have enough to destroy my life.

Okay. Okay. We can’t fire Melinda Trask, but we can’t just let them roll over my baby. You trust me more than anything in the world. And you believe me when I say that I will fight for Chanel every step of the way. I will not stop fighting for your daughter and neither will Bill. She’s the smartest, most tenacious lawyer I know.

And if anyone can outfox. Linda Trask, it’s Bell.

Oh, I’m glad I found you. Oh, what’s going on? I need to talk to Chanel. Can you bring her up? Uh, she’s already in the interrogation room. She has visitors. Yeah. Yeah. Ellie came to see her and, and Sloan. Peterson. Wait, Sloan’s in there. You left them alone in there. Like Chanel agreed to speak to her. My hands are tied here.

Why is there something going on? Yeah, he could say that. All right. You have said everything you need to say. So now it’s my turn. Well, you have no say in this. Yes, I do. Important. I see you talk about your pain, and I can see that it hurts. But Chanel has a life and she has a future. And yes, she made mistakes, but she has worked to become a better person.

And honestly, is this even about your mother anymore? What is that supposed to mean? I said you can’t figure it out. When you first got to Salem, did you confront Chanel? Did you ask for an apology? He tried to get a big payday. You don’t know me. You don’t know what I’ve been through, and I am owed restitution along with revenge.

God, please tell me her time is up. All she did was come in here and her rationale and try and make her feel more punished than she already is. Chanel, you’re going home What you made bail.

Finally some honesty. Yes, I am being honest and I am sorry that I went to Jada without you knowing, but I’m not sorry for wishing that we could avoid a, a huge complication in our lives now that we’re back together. He said, you saw me Thanksgiving dinner and my dad hosted.

Yeah, and you must have seen me when I was happy, and part of that was because I got back together with the love of my life, and part of that was because I was going to be a father. You know how much that means to me? Of course I do. I hope it would mean something to you as.

We were both so surprised when we learned feta was pregnant. Yeah, so a so just decided to get back together and it’s something that you were planning or hoping for.

We can’t always plan the things that are gonna happen in our. But it doesn’t mean that I didn’t want it

and you, I couldn’t give you the baby that you always wanted. Is that what you were gonna say?

You know, someday. Someday I’ll have a child. God willing. It’s too bad that Eric won’t be the father. He would’ve been great. Even though I’m mad as hell at him. He’s still one hell of a guy. Yes. Yes he is.

I’m sorry that you got hurt. What’s next? Focus on my job. Mm-hmm. , no. Figure out what I want in life and, and work on making that happen. Yeah. Well, I have a feeling you’re going to do just fine. Well, I’m used to taking care of myself. Yeah. I can relate. But it’s nice to have someone in your life too. Yeah, it was nice while it lasted.

I wasn’t gonna say that. Are you sure?

Are you sure you were gonna say how grateful you were? That Jada could give you a child of your own when I’m not capable. Could you believe, I was gonna say something so hurtful cause a few minutes ago you were willing to think that I talked Jada into ending her pregnancy and it You didn’t seem to care that you hurt me then.

I didn’t think that. Yeah. Well, you know, you. Her getting an abortion had a lot to do with my conversation with her. Here. I, I know how much you wanna be a father,

but you chose someone who can’t make that happen happened. I told you how satisfied I was with El Ree Holly. Yeah. Maybe. But once you found out Jada’s news, you got so swept up, so swept up that you forgot I even existed. That’s true. You are a part of this dream, Nicole. Really? Really? I mean, did you call me over to let me in on the plan?

Did you even mention me in your big announcement? No, you didn’t. You didn’t think of me at all. So, how the hell could I be part of your dream,

mama? Oh. Oh my baby. Oh, I made bail. Oh yes, we heard. We heard. Oh, thank the Lord be called and told us to come right over. You see? You see, I knew you could do it. Well, it was a bit of a Hail Mary, but it worked. . I was so happy for you to preach. Well, thank you, bill. Thank you. How did you do it? Oh, well, I had to force trash to appear in front of a judge and prove that there was no case to hold you without bail.

Oh, well, nicely done. You tried the right lawyer. , thank you so much. Bail. Well, we still have a long way to go, but it was a good first step. So what do we do now? Well, as soon as you pay the bail, Chanel’s free. Oh, well just tell me where to take the check. My little girl needs to come home. not so fast.

You stay away from my daughter. We have had enough of your. The judge has ruled nalin that she has, but this isn’t about Chanel. What are you talking about? Here you go, detective, do your duty, please. What? What is this? Wait. Chanel can still the home though, right? Chanel has seen granted bail, but her murder charge is not the only crime that’s stemming from this unfortunate incident.

What other crimes? How about the coverup that follow? Mastermind by na, our shiny new governor elect. Detective,

I’m sorry to do this, but uh, calling a price. You’re under arrest for criminal conspiracy and obstruction of justice. No. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of. So you have the right to an attorney. You cannot afford an attorney. I will be appointed for you

Jada. Look, I know that you pride yourself on being independent and not needing anyone, but um, I really hope that we can remain friends cuz I really. . I feel the same way about you, Kate. Great. That’s important because with my history, I really need a friend in the Salem pd. Believe me, . You know what? Yeah, I’ve, I’ve heard some stories about you.

Yeah. Well, don’t believe them. I mean, they are true, but don’t believe them . So is there anything else I can get you cuz I can do better than tea ? No, I, I think right now I think I just need some rest. Okay. But you’ll, you’ll call me right? Yeah, I just, right now I just, just feeling tired. Yeah. I think it’s probably, it’s all catching up with

Kate,

even though I know I, I did what was right for me. It still doesn’t make it any easier. Sweet. Oh, honey. I know. I know. Oh, you need to get it out. You really need to get it out.

That’s right. I’m sorry. I never meant to make you feel like it didn’t matter, but you can’t help. It can. Shea decided to end her pregnancy without telling you, and you can’t be mad at her, so you have to take it out on me because I’m an easy target. And after Xander and, and all the other mistakes I made, this is just a one more way to disappoint you.

Stop just,

this is not about you and I not being able to have a baby together.

About what you did, about you going to Jada,

you broke a trust. I can’t be undone,

can’t go back.

Jada’s baby is gone now and I have to find a way to live with that.

Live without being a father or live with my role in it.

You can.

You can’t just say something like that and walk away.

Why now?

Where do we go from here?

I don’t know. No.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

What I did to Uncle s Stephan, I have no idea what Wendy and I went to Jakarta. We found Dr. Rolf. What is Ralph doing in Jakarta? You know exactly what he’s doing there. He’s in a secret der funded lad that you shipped him off to, and he told us all about what you and Lee Adam do.

There’s no sense in life Before he tried to wipe our memories. Ralph told Johnny and me how you had him brainwash Stephan. That’s ridiculous. Which part? Okay. Let’s forget for the moment that what you’re talking about is impossible. Why would I do something like that? Because Ralph made Stephan forget all about his love for Gabby, so Gabby could love you instead.

Why are you looking at me like that? Sorry. I guess I am staring. I just

can’t get over how beautiful you are and how lucky I am that you’re in my life. Thank you. That’s, that’s really sweet. And I’m really lucky too that you’re in my life.

Sorry to interrupt then, don’t. Chloe and I are trying to enjoy a nice breakfast. Oh, this is only gonna take a minute. I need to know if you’re planning on coming to my wedding.

I know you’re feeling a little insecure right now about Eric. Is that so strange? He’s gonna have a baby with another woman, Brady, which was not intended. Look, I know it’s not the easiest situation. Okay? But the bottom line is you two belong to.

What? Oh, have you suddenly changed your mind about that as well? No, no, no. Of course not. It, I, I believe that actually I, I know that Eric has always wanted a child of his own. Now someone else is gonna make his dream come true.

What do you mean? There’s no baby? I mean that I’m not pregnant anymore.

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

helm. Rolf is a liar and a sociopath, yet you trust his word over your own. What possible reason would he have to implicate himself if it wasn’t true? Perhaps the good doctor presents the prominent role I now play in the DER family business. Or perhaps that prominent role, but you in a position to harness his twisted.

Admitted that you were the one who told him to brainwash stuff and Johnny taped the confession. And where’s that recording now? Ralph arrested and then he tried to do the same thing with our memories. Why would he do that if he was lying? What did that maniac do to you? What now you’re. Did he hurt you?

Jwe hurt me. That freak had a strap down to a table about to inject us with some experimental drug, like a couple of lab rats. Did you know he was going to do that?

So Rolf tried to reboot your memory. Yeah, mine and Wendy’s. Right after he confessed that you and Lee had a mess with your brother’s brain to make him forget all about his feelings for Gabby. I didn’t have anything to do with that. For God’s sake, Johnny, why on earth would I give a damn about that? You didn’t care about one thing.

Control. And you knew that if you could turn Stephan against Gabby, he’d vote for you and you could take the company back.

Yes, Gabby, we will be attending your wedding. I distinctly remember saying we wouldn’t dream of missing it. Right. Well, you didn’t RSVP and New Year’s Eve is just around the corner, so I need to get a precise headcount. Oh, okay. Well, we don’t exactly have the RSVP card on us. Well, I have another one right here.

I told you, Hey, I spoke to Eric. He is committed to being a father, but he’s also very much committed to you. Come on, Brady. Come on, come on. What? I heard Eric talk about the baby on Thanksgiving and, and he was, yeah. He was practically glowing about being a father. Well, yeah, he’d okay. He’s excited about being a father.

Why wouldn’t he be? I mean, it’s finally going to happen for him. He, Nick, it’s not an ideal situation and I understand you’re having some, you know, big feelings here. Big feelings. That’s all you could come up with. Look, what I’m trying to say is, you got this, you got this. You have been through too much with one another.

Think about how the challenges you, he was on the other end of the world for how many years. You still found your way back to one another, didn’t you? You can work it out and know that you can.

God, you, you had a miscarriage. I’m Jah. I’m so sorry. I I wish you would’ve called me. I didn’t have a miscarriage. I, I made the decision to terminate my pregnancy. I.

What? What are you saying?

I had an abortion.

Do you trust Eric? Of course I do. Okay, good. Then trust in what you have. Because historically, Nicole, uh, when you don’t do that, that’s when you get into trouble.

What are you saying, Brady? I’m saying don’t do anything that you will regret. Nicole, I hear you. Okay, but this isn’t just about giving Jada and Eric Space or whatever. I mean, she was really into him. What if she uses this baby to try and rekindle their relationship? Mm-hmm. Uh, she doesn’t seem like that kind of a person at all.

The kind of person who wants to be with the father of her child, Nicole. Just because you share a child with someone doesn’t mean you belong with them. Okay. Look, you have Holly. Eric is not the biological father. Right. But Daniel isn’t here to complicate things between Eric and me. Jada is

Jada. I don’t understand. You told me you wanted to have the baby. I changed my mind without telling me it’s my body, my choice. You said so yourself? Yes. Yes, I did. But I mean, I thought we had a plan. I told you how excited I was to be a father to our child. I thought you were excited about that too. Why wouldn’t you just at least talk to me about it?

I know how much you wanted to have this baby, which is why I was afraid. I was afraid that if I told you about my decision, that you would try to talk me out of it.

Uh, Stephen, wait. Wait for what? Well, I know that, um, Stephan said that. You know, he wouldn’t dream of not going to your wedding, but we haven’t had a chance to talk about it yet. What’s there to talk about? Unless you guys aren’t in sync about this. Is that what it is? He wants to go, but you don’t. No, I didn’t say that.

No. Well, what are you saying? Because I need to know the verdict. I, I need to know. Okay, Gabby, the verdict is we will attend your wedding. Chloe is feeling a bit ambivalent at the moment, but. I will talk her into it because I know that we won’t have a wonderful time. So that’s a yes. Oh yeah. You know me, Gabby.

I love a good train wreck. I can’t wait to watch Lee Shin make the biggest mistake of his life. You actually think I instructed Dr. Rolf to strap you to a table and wipe your memory? I don’t know what to believe. The thought makes me. Doesn’t, because apparently this is the kind of thing he does considering he already made Steph and forget about his love for Gabby.

Well, this is the first I’m hearing of all this, and I promise you if I ever see Dr. Rolf again, I’ll deal with him. Actually, let me make some calls. Lee,

do you remember when. And we took father’s Bentley out for a toy ride. What about it? When father saw the scratch on the door the next day, he suspected what you had done. But when he confronted you about it, you looked him right in the eye and denied it. Didn’t it even blink? No. No. Of course, when I got you alone, I forced you to confess.

I. It seems to remember you kept poking me with a sharp stick. No, I wasn’t going to give up until you told me why you took the car , and then finally you admitted it was to impress some girl. Your point, even then you were romantic. You do anything to get the girl?

Maybe things haven’t changed.

I always tell when you were lying to me back then. Do I need to bring out the sharp stick?

You’re right. I was the one who asked Ralph to brainwash that in the mirror. Rolf told you I was party to this, that I ordered him to brainwash. He told me it was Lee, but I know that it was both of you. And how would you know that? Because Wendy overheard her brother talking to Aunt Kristen . Oh, now Vaz a reliable sauce.

Look, dad. I know you okay. You’re just like, no, no, you don’t leave anything up to chance. And when I just told you about Rolf, it’s pretty obvious you weren’t surprised about the news. So just come on after everything we’ve been through the last couple days. Can you just drop the act? Just be real for a second.

Okay. Yes. I’ve known for some time that Ralph conditioned your uncle to erase his connection to Gabby. I didn’t make that happen, but I did take full advantage of it. I used it to solidify Stefan’s connection to me and the family, and you should be glad I did it.

Now to be clear, I had nothing to do with Wolf’s brainwashing scheme. That was all Lee and Kristen. So you’re telling me you only learned about this after the fact? That’s right. And by then, and it was already a Fatto Ri Lee had his own personal reasons. I’m sure your new friend Wendy. Could cast more light on his motivations than I can.

Why would aren’t Kristin even want to do this? I’m sure that’s not that hard to figure out. What does she care about most in this world?

Brady. Brady, right. She was very interested in using Stephan to get Chloe Lane out of his life. Rolf swore to me that neither you nor Johnny would be hurt, so you admit that he was working for you. I discovered by accident that Rolf had saved Stephan’s life, that he was keeping him in a secret facility, and yes, I made a request.

I asked him to help me. Finally, some honesty, I don’t understand why this is so important to you. When I first got to Salem, I overheard you talking about keeping Gabby and Stephan apart, and then when I compared notes with Johnny Damara, it seemed like his father was also involved. Why did it matter? Well, honestly, I thought I could.

Use it as leverage to get you to gimme that promotion. I already gave you the job and I appreciate that. If you still wanted to hurt me, no, just the opposite. I love you. Okay. I was worried about you. Worried about me, how I was afraid this crazy scheme can blow up in your face. I mean, I’ve seen how hard you’ve fallen for Gabby, but if this isn’t real, please it.

Real. I love her. She loves me. Only me if you’re planning on coming to my wedding to cause trouble. No, no, Gabby, I will not be causing the trouble, but I certainly will enjoy observing it. Easy. Everybody knows what this wedding is about, and that is you holding onto power at. My family company. I know you think that everything is about you, but I am marrying Lee for the right reasons.

I love him and he loves me. If you say so, guess we’ll find out New Year’s Eve. You sure As how Will and and Chloe, I hope you’re not too uncomfortable. I’m assuming you’re reluctant to accept my invitation because of Brady. What does Brady have to do with any of this? Well, you’ll be seeing him at my. I just hope you’ll be okay with that.

Hey, I shared child with Kristen. There’s no way in hell we’re getting back together. Uh, you kind of already did, huh? You, you claim to love Chloe, but if I’m not mistaken, you broke up with her and moved Kristen in. Oh, gosh. I was, I was just doing what I, I, yes. What, what is right for your. Yeah. Okay, so let me get this straight one more time.

You ended your current relationship, so you could be with Rachel’s mother. Why should I believe that Eric wouldn’t do the exact same thing? I would never put in pressure on you to do something you wouldn’t want to do. So what are you saying? If I would’ve called you, you would’ve just sat there and listened without judgment?

Yes, it’s easy to say now. I know things between us ended it badly and I know that it was my fault. Are you, are you about to ask me if I did this to punish you? No, I’m not saying that’s what I was thinking. I’m just trying to understand. This wasn’t an easy choice for me, but it was the right one. It had nothing to do with punishing you.

It had nothing to do with you, period.

Can I ask you a question, please? Thanksgiving day, you made it. You made it very clear about your decision to have the baby. I mean, what was it? What was it that changed your mind?

I thought it was what I wanted, but that was before I had time to process what it would really be. Being a single mom and a cop, it, it was just, just too much.

You weren’t gonna do this alone. We were gonna do this together. I’m you’re saying that now, and I’m sure you believe it. I believed it too, to the fact that even if we didn’t have a relationship, that this baby could still bring us joy and that we can make it.

I would, but then I, I spoke to,

You, you spoke to Nicole. She knows how it is to raise a child alone. She helped me realize that it’s gonna be a struggle. And even though I know you said you, you would share a part of that with me, but half of the time I would be alone. And another part of it, I, I just couldn’t take the pain of burying a child with whose father doesn’t love me and being tied to him for the rest of my life.

So when did you and Nicole have this conversation about the baby? She came here, the other. She came here to see you. She had walked in on Thanksgiving dinner and sauce together. Wait, she was here. Well, apparently she walked in and walked out. So when she came here to see you, what exactly did she say? She said a lot of things.

She asked me some questions like, why would I wanna have a baby that’s gonna connect me with you forever? What else did she say? She was just telling me how it was for her being a single mom, and she painted a very clear picture of what that would look like, and then she finished by reminding me that if I had this child, that she would be a part of my life forever.

She said on that? Yeah, she did. And I have to admit that I didn’t think about how hard it would be. There are so many women in this country with unwanted pregnancies that don’t have a choice, sadly, but I did.

It’s just the other day that this pregnancy wasn’t unwanted.

In your conversation with Cole changed. I don’t know if it was her intent, but her visit definitely helped me decide to not have this baby.

You need to trust me when I tell you that my situation with Kristen is nothing like Eric’s situation with Jada. Eric does not wanna be with Jada. Okay. He ended his relationship because he wants to be with you. Yeah, and I ended my marriage so that I could be with him, but that was before he found out about this baby.

Eric is gonna find a way to work this thing out with Jada. There is no reason why this child has to come between the two of you.

Why is Brady coming to your wedding? Lee invited him. Work politic. You know, and just so there aren’t any other surprises, we invited Brady with a plus one. I’m assuming he’s gonna bring Kristen. Anyway, I’m just gonna leave this RS repeat card with you guys. Can you please send it as soon as you can?

Fuck. I didn’t set out to do any of this. When I discovered that Rolf was keeping Stephan’s body on ice, I, I began to monitor the situation. I, I, I thought possibly I could use it for my advantage of the company, how

everyone still thought of me as just shin’s son. I thought if I could retrieve one of Stefano’s sons, He would help quicken my ascent up the corporate ladder. But then you fell for d i I tried to stuff my attraction down. I knew that Gabby and Stephen were married, but once my feelings passed the point of no return, he realized that bringing back Stephan would cause you to lose her.

And that was not a loss I was willing to accept. So you learned about what Rolf did, but you, you kept quiet about it because it wasn’t any of my business. None of your business. Hey Stephanie, is your brother mean? What if that happened to you? What? What if after your accident, somebody got inside your head and your heart and erased all the love you ever had from mom?

Honestly, I would sincerely thank that person. For doing me a favor, I don’t believe that believe what you want. Now. I am eternally grateful that we produced you and your little sister, but other than that, loving Samantha Brady has caused me nothing but humiliation and heartbreak. Ha ha. Oh, I see. So you were just doing your brother a favor and taking the company back from Gabby.

Just a bonus. Must be good looking down at me from that high horse. If you care about your uncle’s feelings or even the ethics of what Dr. Rolf did to him, what are you saying? I’m saying that this isn’t about you defending someone’s right to love. They want, this isn’t about love at all. This is about resentment and revenge payback.

You swore that you would make me pay for the way I heard vital,

and now you have your chance.

Obviously Nicole didn’t tell you that she came here. I don’t want to talk about Nicole.

I wanna be here for you. For me. Yeah. I wanna be here for you. I, I’m, how are you feeling? I’m fine. Can I get you anything to eat? I’m not hungry. I, I just need to rest Of course. Yeah. Oh, you just let me know if you need anything. I mean, I can take you to your doctor for a follow up if you need. Uh, Eric, it’s, it’s, What

you’ve handled this as well as I could possibly imagine, and I I, and I’m sure that if I would’ve made a different decision, I know that you would’ve done the right thing and been a good father,

but you’re off the hook now. Oh, the hook. You and I are broken. I am not having your child, so there’s no reason for us to be in each other’s lives.

I, um, listen that, that, that was my polite way of saying to leave me alone. Next time. I can’t promise it. I’ll be so nice.

I just don’t see how Jada having this baby won’t come between Eric and me. Doesn’t have to. I said, look, hey, you brought Eric into Holly’s life, right? Holly adores him right? Yes, she does. Mm-hmm. . But Holly doesn’t have a father. This baby will have a mother. Mm-hmm. . And this baby is also gonna have a very cool stepmom.

You come on, you’re gonna be a great stepmom. And at one. And what? At one point when the time is right, you’re gonna go to Jayden, say, jf, I’m really excited about this. I’m gonna be very supportive of this blended family and I’m gonna love this child that you have with Eric. Just as much as I love my. Now say Brady, I can do that,

I suppose. No, no, no, no. Don’t suppose, I suppose wrong word. Do it. Go into this positively and let Jada know that you care enough about this to make this happen. I am urging you back for everyone’s sake. Don’t do anything to screw this up.

Uh, so you seem a bit determined to go to this wedding and you are hating the idea more and more. This Brady, uh, I just, you worried about being around him? I don’t love the idea of being around him on New Year’s Eve, especially if he’s with Kristen. I mean, the reason I took that promotion from Lee was to put some distance between us, you know?

No, I understand that. So look, if going to that ridiculous wedding is going to make you feel uncomfortable, screw. Forget about the wedding, really? Oh, you’re the best. Yeah. Look, I, I am sorry that I put any pressure on you whatsoever. It was just not worth it. But I do remember a place that you did want to go with me.

And where’s that? Miami. Really? You, you still want to go away? Yes. Yes. I, let’s forget about this sham of a wedding and ringing the new year together on the beach, huh? That sounds perfect. Does, doesn’t it? It does. All right. Okay. So

Damara, Chloe Lane will not attend. Regrets to the happy couple. Sounds like an excellent choice, and I will get this to a male box asap. Sounds good. And we will bring in the new year and start fresh. Put Gabby and Brady behind us for good.

Look, I get that. You want to hold on to Gabby, but you have to know that this isn’t fair to. Gabby loves me. I don’t doubt that, but I’ve seen Gabby with Stephan. It’s still painful to have him hate her like that. She’s over him. She wouldn’t be marrying me if she wasn’t. Okay. How do you think she’d react if she knew she’s about to marry the man who made her exs?

Stop loving her. I know all about Gabby and Stephen’s. They weren’t this perfect romantic ideal when they first met. They were bitter adversaries and then they ended up falling in love. And now Stephan has moved on with Chloe Lane. From what I hear, he was infatuated with her and before he ever got involved with Gabby, you really are doing some work to justify this.

I don’t care if you think what I did was wrong, I care about what you’re going to do now that you. What you mean? Am I going to tell anyone?

If you did, I’d lose my job. I’d lose Gabby. I could go to prison. Well, I know I don’t have the right to ask you this. But you left me no other choice.

I’m asking you. No, I’m, I’m begging you Jing one as my sister. Please keep quiet about this. Convince Johnny to do the same.

Yeah, you’re right, Brett. I was angry at you for the way that you treated Ava, and that’s why I started Investigat. I wanted to teach you a lesson,

and after the way Ava treated your grandmother, God rest her soul. Do you still feel the same way that you’d hurt your own father for her? No. No. What she did was horrible, unforgivable. I told you that woman was a menace and now she’s cost me my mother. Look, dad, I’m sorry. Okay. I I If, if, if me taking Ava’s side against you contributed in any way to, to have us losing Grandma.

Susan, I’m sorry

I didn’t blame you. So

I dunno. You know, I just feel like. If I would’ve done things differently, grandma Susan might still be alive.

I really am sorry, dad. It’s okay. It’s,

we both did things that we wish we could take back, but if there is, one thing I do know is that your grandmother would want us to put all of this behind us and be a family. Yeah, I want that too. But if we’re gonna move forward, and Uncle Stephan has a right to know what was done to him.

Sing one.

You know what it was like growing up in our house, the pressure father put on me.

I finally have everything I could ever want. Position of respect

the woman of my dreams.

But my life is in your hands. You never told father about the penalty. Please don’t tell Gabby about this. Tell me about what,

no, no, no. Jonah, you can’t tell s Stephan what was done to him. He’s got a right to know Dad, please. You need to think about it, Johnny, if you tell him, not only could I lose Dira Enterprises, but I could also go back to prison for my complicity. Please. I just lost my mother. Please don’t take anything else away from me.

Uh, we were just talking about gen who my hers first Love. Oh, would what can’t I know about Lee’s first left? I didn’t want you to be jealous, even though you’d have no reason to be. You sure about that? Because when I walked in, you had a pretty guilty look on your face. Oh, you misread my look. I was just glad to see your beautiful face.

That’s what I was him. That you don’t have to worry about my brother’s feelings for you, Gabby. You see, I can confirm that he would do anything to keep your heart. Good to know. Um, anyway, before I left, things were pretty heated between the two of you. Is everything okay? Probably was a little upset with me.

The most important thing is that Jing Wen and I have come to an understanding, I get why she took the jet and we’re ready to put this whole episode behind. Right. This,

what’s going on? Uh, my dad just told me about Grandma Susan. I can’t believe it. Very sorry for your loss, Johnny. Thank you. I thought I heard a tense conversation. Tense, Johnny, it sounded like you were blaming your dad for Susan’s death almost as if what happened was his fault. Oh, is that what you heard?

Just caught the tail end of it. I already told you. I’m guilty. I felt, aj, you don’t need to feel guilty. It’s abundantly clear that Ava was outta control. This whole mess is her fault. Johnny. Don’t blame your father. He needs you right now.

You’re right, you’re right. I’ve, uh, I’ve, I’ve been too hard on him. What’s done has done, and I know that he only wants what’s best for this family.

I admit, I, um, I went to a dark place there for a minute.

I do trust Eric and yes, Polly and Eric and I, and, and this baby on the way will be a family.

We’ll make it work. Eric, ready, have you speak to Nicole alone?

This is not how I imagined any of this going. I mean, we got what we wanted, right? My father and your brother admitted their complicity in the brainwashing of Stephan by Dr. Rolf. If we don’t keep quiet about it, my brother will lose everything. Yeah, my God. Lose everything too. And he’s. Uh, he’s already lost his mom.

My grandma, she died in the most awful way. Johnny, I’m so sorry about your grandma, especially her dying that way. It’s awful, like you said. Yeah, she was just, uh, she was such a sweet, caring person and just. Yeah, to think about, uh, what our last moments must have been like. Uh, it’s just, it’s so sad.

So we both agree we have to keep their secrets. Your dads and my brothers. Gabby and s Stephan can now you feel okay with that? No, not really. Me neither.

Did that kiss, Nick, you forget about Chan who? Chan who?

Pass. Doesn’t matter. Kevin, what matters is. Here us, there’s you and only you. I feel the same. The only thing that matters is us You.

So sorry for what you’re going through, rj.

It’s, it’s all this anger. I don’t know how to deal with it. Of course, you’re angry to lose your mother in that horrific and senseless way.

I know I mentioned this before, but I am here for you, brother. Whatever you need. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate that. If it happened to me, if somebody I loved deeply was taken from me, I know you do the same.

Oh, hi. Uh, sorry, I’m just on my way to the mailbox. Yeah. Oh, is that, uh, is that Lee and Cab’s RSVP card? Yeah. Uh, s Stephen and I will not be attending. See, yeah, we’re going away for the weekend, so there’s more room on the dance floor for you. And Kristen, I’m just assuming she’s your plus one. You know what?

Nevermind. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said anything. Do you know if Nicole’s at Basic Black, I need to run something by her? I, I would, I would wait a bit. Actually, I just came from the office and Eric was there to talk with her. Oh, is everything okay? I don’t know, but I got the sense that he was definitely upset about something.

What is going on? How could you, how could I What? What did you say to Jada? Jada? Tell me the truth. Nicole. Did you encourage Jada to have an abortion?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Good morning. Hey, good morning. How you doing? Good. Just working away. What’s. Well, I just wanted to check in, see how you’re doing since our talk last night. I’m fine. Yes. Jada, having your baby is unexpected, but that’s not gonna change anything between us, just like you said. Right? Yeah. And I, I meant, I know.

So she’s really going through with a pregnancy, huh? Of course, she’s, why wouldn’t she? No reason. I, I was just asking. Oh gosh. That’s my, my other line. I gotta run. Okay. I look Nicole.

Oh, hi. To make up for the one we didn’t have yesterday. Oh, thank you so much. Um, that means a lot. I definitely missed this Thanksgiving without dessert. Not the same. . Well, we could, uh, have a slice for breakfast if you haven’t eaten already. Don’t you have to get to work? No, my schedule’s pretty open this morning.

Okay. Yeah, of course. Yeah. Come on in then. So, uh, speaking of work, have you heard from your sister? No. I guess she’s still out of town with Johnny Damara.

Hello El. Anybody home?

Nobody here. Good. We can talk, just start off by saying that we freaking rock Jakarta was a success. Yeah. Things got a little dicey, but we got the information we needed from Dr. Ross. Now we have to decide who to confront with it first. My brother or your dad.

Go away. How? I don’t wanna be the disturbs. This my sleep.

Bloody How? How didn’t you hear me? I said go away.

I am not Harold,

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

Yes, you, uh, you no realize, mum, I’m hallucinating. Uh, I’m seeing things that aren’t there. Just like at the crash site, you aren’t seeing things then just like you’re not seeing things. Now I am real.

And so is this, this, it’s my imagination. I, I, I, I, I hit my head last night. Tony and Chad brought me back here. Yeah, your brothers may have saved you last night, but. You all be so lucky tonight. I have a wait, say hello to your mother in how,

oh, Oh,

I wish we had that damn recording of Ralph admitting that he brainwashed Stephan on my brother’s orders. Yeah, that would definitely make things easier. Yeah, I mean, I, I can’t believe he nuked the tape. That was the hard evidence that we needed. Now my dad’s just gonna, you know, deny any involvement, brother probably will too.

But we know, I mean, we, we know they. And they shipped Ralph out of the country to cover up their tracks, and I still can’t believe my brother would do something so horrible. I mean, I know how much he loves Gabby, but this is way over the line. Look, it’s very possible that the brainwashing was my dad’s idea.

It’s totally his. With Stephan by his side, he’s got all the shares he needs to ous Gabby become c e o again, he’s exactly where he wants to be. Oh, so is my brother. A part of me thinks, just drop it now, let him get married and live happily ever after. But, I can’t do it. I can’t stay silent knowing what I know.

I have to confront him.

Okay. He’s not logged in at work yet. He must be with Gabby Jing went at better show at the office today. If, if she misses one more day of work, I swear it. Ah, relax. Enjoy your breakfast.

Okay.

Oh, hmm. Delicious. You know, when rave tossed the pie in the trash that Nicole made, I thought, man, he must really be done with her. Yeah, I haven’t seen him this Ben outta shape since Sammy cheated on him with ej. Just, I, I don’t get it if all the women in this town just keep stopping all over Brave’s heart.

I thought that Nicole would be different. They were friends before they got married, right? Close friends. I liked her. I liked her for my brother. I even was rooting for them to get back together when he was dating that horrendous mafia Princess. I’m not gonna miss that bitch. No, it’s true though. I’m not, you know?

Yeah. well, I’m sorry for what happened to Rafe. Yeah, me too. I’m just, I’m surprised. You know, who knew that Nicole would hurt my brother worse than Ava? Absolutely. James. I’ll have marketing get that to you today. Okay, bye.

No, not none. Well, well, well look who’s here. Did you get lost on your way to the executives? Huh? You’re very funny. I brought you an almond latte. Oh, thank you. Chloe’s my favorite. Of course. Well, I mean, with your big new job, I’m surprised you had time to stop by. Well, actually, with my big new job at Damer Corporate, um, one of the things I have to do is now oversee basic black.

You got Kristen’s job? Mm-hmm. . And she got my man.

What does a guy have to do to get some breakfast around here? Hello, brother. Hey. What? Cigars? Cigars? Yeah. I hear congratulations are definitely in order. ? Yeah. My mother told you about the baby. No, no, no, no. Nicole. Oh, well hey, she is one of my best friends here. Yeah, of course she is. And I’m glad you two can talk.

I mean, this baby is a blessing, obviously, and mm-hmm. , gosh. I mean it’s uh, it’s very exciting. Yeah. It’s throwing us for a loop a little bit. It clearly complicates your reunion with Nicole. What’s the deal with Jada? I mean, where does that stand? Well, it’s over. I bet Chad has decided to keep the baby, which I’m really happy about.

I mean, we can co. Yeah. Okay. So, um, it’s gonna be you, Nicole, her kid, and Jada plus your kid. Yeah, yeah. . Okay. It’s gonna be a little more complicated than I’m sure you wish, but you and Nicole, you guys will work it out. Yeah.

So you really don’t want me to come with you to confront your brother? I’ll be fine. What if he panics and what hurts me? They would never do that. How can you be so sure after Rolf tried to drug us and Jakarta? Okay. We don’t know if he was ordered to do that. You could have gone rogue. Well, I intend to find out, so why don’t we just both go see my dad first.

Connie, we. That we’d have a better chance of getting information if we split out. Yeah, I know, but stick to the plan. Divide and conquer.

Would you rather have a coffee I a dog and I’m over.

I think I might still be drunk considering the amount of fine single mal put away yesterday. Where was this?

And my mother’s crash site.

Brave was with me for a bit. Took a swig of my flask. If you can leave that and then a bit later on I saw Ava Fatali. Sorry, when I was hallucinating, obviously. Fact, she devil is running hell for what she did to my mother.

I’m so sorry. I can’t begin to imagine the pain that you’re going through right now and just know if there’s anything. That you need. I’m, I’m here. I appreciate your guidance, brother. You and Chloe were there for me tonight. It happened

what night in my life. It was a great comfort. I’m glad. Oh, and uh, please offer my gratitude to Chloe as well. I’ll tell her, see her in a bit. So I’ll let her know. You two seem to be getting closer.

We are. God, you must be seating. Oh. Just finding any opportunity to throw her wedding blands in my face. Is that right? It’s one pathetic attempt after another to make me jealous. You know, I wish she would just stop wasting her energy and get it into her head that Chloe is the only woman in my mind.

I know this situation with Brady Suck. But imagine the look on Kristen’s face when she finds out that you’re still part of Basic Black. I mean, that’s a little consolation, isn’t it? Yeah, I know right? . Uh, but Brady insists that he thinks that Kristen put Lee up to offering me this promotion. What do you think?

Well, I was just more curious if Stephan had anything to do with it. But I asked Lee and he insists that it was up to him and ej. Hmm. And what about Kristen? Apparently Kristen no longer works at Dera, so to prove that I was given oversight of basic Black. But you’re still suspicious of Kristen Always. I still can’t believe Brady broke up with you and moved Kristen into his home.

Mm. He thinks that’s what’s best for Rachel. So living under the same roof as a total lunatic. Well, that total lunatic happens to be Rachel’s mom. Listen, Brady has clearly moved on and so have I. You know how those two raised their child? It’s. It’s no longer my concern.

We do realize that Jada and I are not the first former couple to give co-parenting a shot. I know that. Mm-hmm. , look at us. We come from the most successful blended family. I know. Exactly. You know, and I don’t care about half or step. I justm really blessed to have you all in my life. We got emerging families, you know, you know, raising a kid with an ex, you know, it’s not for.

As a matter of fact, sometimes frankly it can just not make any sense at all. Yeah. Like you and Kristen,

if, I don’t know why I have to keep saying this, but I will. The only reason I moved Kristen in is because it’s what’s best for our daughter, and you’re honestly telling me that there’s no better options than moving Kristen under the same roof as our. What would you have me do? I know. I know. I’ll move ’em all into granddad’s house.

If Kristen could have another stab at it, of course, because I’d prefer that than her going after my mom again, listen, Hey, you don’t have to worry about your mother because I’m gluing everything in my power to make sure that Kristen doesn’t hurt. Marlena. Hear me? Okay. But anyway, , we shouldn’t even be talking about me.

We should be talking about you. You’re gonna be a father . You know how much is, this is gonna change your life, man. Yes, I know. I’m scared, but I’m happy and be honest. I can’t stop thinking about it. You know, just the idea. Hold little baby boy or even a baby girl, and I know. Under the circumstances sits a little crazy, obviously, but I’m really happy Brady

Do you think maybe you and s Stephan are moving a little fast? Who are you? My mother . She asked me the same thing actually, but in her defense, she’s Team Brady all the way. Mm. That makes two of us. Mm. Well, you’re gonna have to get off of it. Okay. Cause I’m not gonna sit here and pine after some dude who’s insisting on playing house with a bride of Chucky

You know what? S Stephan and I, we like each other and we’re excited to see where things go. Okay. Well if that’s the case, then I am happy for you. Thank you. Well, it looks like we’re both starting new chapters in our lives. You’re dating Stephan and I got back together with Eric. I’m sorry, what?

So Nicole’s leaving rave to go back to our ex-husband. Not surprising, Eric’s the love of her life, but. Their marriage was over and done with a long time ago. No. Why would you wanna go backwards? Rehash relationship that’s already run its course, especially when she’s made a commitment to someone else.

Are we still talking about my brother or are we talking about you, me and Stephan

to answer my question. Okay, fine. Yeah. I can’t help but see the parallel. Nicole couldn’t stop obsessing over her ex after he got back either. Come on. Okay. They are nothing alike. Eric came back to town. Stephen came back from the dead. Okay. And and you think I’m obsessing? I mean, once I got over the shock that Stefan was alive and not interested in me, I moved on with you.

Come here. Look, trust me, I’m, I am not gonna make the same mistake that Nicole is making. Seven is my past and you are my future.

Okay. I, um, still have some extra time before I have to go back to work. Uh, wanna show me your childhood bedroom? Although I’m not allowed to have boys in there, you know, it’s no one’s homes, so maybe.

Hold. Hold that thought. Hold on,

J Wayne, you’re back. Oh, I might find you here. Is everything okay? I need to talk to my brother. It’s important.

The more time Chloe and I spend together telling you the better it gets.

I see a real future with her and I think she feels the same way,

which is wonderful to hear. Stephan, I’m glad someone in his family has finally found happiness again. Hmm. She does make me happy. You know, she’s a strong, independent woman, which I love, but she’s also very kind and compassionate as you saw firsthand, which is a huge improvement over that. Dreadful Gabby Hernandez.

Hmm. When I think about the lengths that conniving Snake went to, to retain control of father’s company, I just, and just how far would you go for control?

Well, dad, aren’t you gonna answer my question?

Wendy, would you like some pie? I’m not hungry. Let me guess. You ate on the plan. I really need to talk to you alone. You’re being very rude, Lee. That’s fine. No, it’s not. Okay. This is Gabby’s home. You come in here unannounced, barely even say hello and ask her to leave Gabby, I’m sorry. This is really important and you can’t wait say bitching one.

Gabby already knows everything she does. Oh yes. I told her exactly what you and Johnny Deir have been up to.

Joey. Thank God you were here, son. I’ve been trying to reach you for days. Is that right? Yes. I, uh, I have something I need to tell you. Interesting. I have something I need to tell you too, dad. You’ll need to wait. This is, this is important. And what I’m going to give you two, some privacy. Uncle Stephan, don’t feel like you have to leave because of me.

It’s, it’s best we talk. Ste. Thank you for your understanding. Of course.

You sure we’re in a hurry to, uh, get Stefan out of there. Why was that something you don’t want your brother to know? Stefan already knows, and now unfortunately, I have to tell you. Okay, fine. Fine. What is it? What’s, what’s so important? I’m afraid I have some distressing use. About your grandma Susan.

Grandma Susan. What? She okay.

Your grandmother is dead.

So how was Nicole when you. A little on edge. She told me that when you told her that Jada was pregnant, she stormed off and the two of you hadn’t spoken since. I assume that’s changed. I just spoke to her on the phone and, you know, I just was following up for our conversation last night after I told her that Jada decided to have the baby.

Mm-hmm. , I, how’d she take it? I, I assured her that nothing’s gonna change between, Jada and I are going to be sharing a baby together, but she is the woman that I love, that I want to be with. I’ll always have my heart. So you ended your marriage with Rafe and decided to get back together with Eric? Well, not exactly in that order.

You know, you. Telling me from us that I either need to commit to my marriage or end it. And, and I tried to commit Chloe. I really did. Oh, honey, I’m not judging you. Trust me. It’s just that when, when Eric came back into town, so did our connection. I don’t think it ever left, but I was with Rave. I really messed up.

Instead of being brave and honest, I was a coward. and I knew I was still in love with Eric and a married Rafe anyway. And now he’s, he’s hurt and he’s humiliated and beyond angry and, and he has every right to be. Well, you didn’t exactly set out to hurt Rafe, and you know Eric didn’t set out to hurt Jada, but at least they’re not married.

So that breakup will be a lot easier. Not necessarily. What does that mean? Jada’s pregnant. Oh my God, seriously? Yeah, so I’m not such a clean break. Oh wow. Is she keeping the baby? I think so. However, I am. I might have advised her not to.

You told Jada to have an abortion. ? No, of course not. I would never do that. Then what exactly did you say? Well, I just pointed out that motherhood is a full-time job and being tied to a man who’s in love with someone else is really difficult. Former couples raise kids all the time, but it’s not easy. I didn’t say that, but it is possible.

Well, just because it’s possible doesn’t mean you should. and you felt like it was your place to inform Jada of this? Well, if I were in her shoes, I would want someone to inform me to be straight with me, that having kids in some temporary arrangement that you could just bail on when things get hard, you are in this for the rest of your life.

Yeah, but it’s, it’s not your life, Nicole. It’s Jada. I know I was just trying to help and encourage her to decide if this is something that she really wants. Okay, so no agenda, you’re just offering her some food for thought. Oh, come on Chloe. We both know how hard it is to be single mothers juggling a child and a career and, and Jada may have to deal with the stress of co-parenting with a man who broke up with her to be with a woman that she can’t.

People make it work. I know, but damn it, Chloe, I will not lose Eric again. So that’s what this is. We’re afraid that that baby’s gonna threaten your relationship with Eric.

Wouldn’t you be? I mean, look how Kristen used Rachel to come between you and Brady. Jada’s. No, Kristen. I know. Fuck God. I’m sorry. It’s just that Eric and I have been through so much and we finally got back together again. Yeah. But when he found out about the baby, he didn’t decide to stay with Jada. Right.

And I’m pretty sure that’s what she wants as well. Assuming she knows how he feels about you. Yeah, Jay did say that she wasn’t gonna fight for this relationship. Eric said, this baby isn’t gonna change anything between us, and I wanna believe that I really do. I wanna be secure about me and us, and that nothing is gonna come between us again.

But you know what? No matter what Eric promises or no matter. How he intends for this to go. The truth is, it’s when that baby is born, Jada and Eric are gonna fall in love with it. Yeah. But. Not with each other. Eric loves you. He always has, and he always will.

Yeah, maybe I shouldn’t have said anything to Jada.

You know, the thing is, given the circumstances, I just think it’s best for everyone. If there’s no baby,

you and Nicole, you’ll figure this out. You’ll work it out. You always do. Yeah. I know Nicole and I can be together, and Jayden and I, we can co-parent. We can all raise a healthy, happy child who’s part of a family who’s gonna love him or her. Uncon conditioned. Absolutely. And here’s the baby mama right now.

Mike. Oh, hey Jada. Hey, you and my brother Brady. Uh, yeah. Nice to see you again. Nice to see you as well. And congratulations. Um, My daughter Rachel, by the way, can’t wait to meet her new cousin. I plan to be a very doty uncle. So if you need anything, uh, after the birth, before the birth, uh, after the baby’s not a baby and it’s driving you bananas, just gimme a call.

I’m your guy. Okay, thanks. Sure. Uh, Eric, can I talk to you? Uh, yeah, of course. Okay. Uh, that’s my cue. Um, congratulations again and um, I will talk to you soon. Yeah.

Oh, Brady’s obviously very excited. It’s fine. So what do you wanna talk about? Is everything okay?

Okay, sir. Uh, I, I, uh, I, I, I just, I, I can’t believe Grandma Susan’s dead. She’s dead. It’s inconceivable. Anna know. Uh, have you, have you told Sydnee? I am. I called her a school this morning, needless to say, a little sister. How did this happen?

Mother was kidnapped and held for ransom. I managed to, I managed to track down the purpose, and we agreed to meet at the airfield where I would wire her ransom money and she would release your grandmother. But as soon as the transfer went through, she turn the tables on me. How? How she grabbed Susan, dragged her off by gunpoint and threw in the car.

I, of course gave Chase, and she, she, she drove off the road. You keep saying she, she, it’s a, it’s a woman. A woman who did this. Who? That’s right. Who, who was it? It was Ava Vital.

You seem surpris. I am. I didn’t think you’d want Gabby to know about this. Well, my fiance and I have no secrets. I told her what you were up to the minute I found out you did. Yes. So what do you have to say for yourself?

Lee don’t, don’t be so hard on your sister. So she played okay with the A boy. It’s no big deal. No big deal. She begs me for a promotion, finally gets one, and before HR even finishes processing the paperwork takes off from parts unknown with Johnny Damara on the company Jet. Hey, listen, you said you weren’t gonna overreact, okay?

What you did was outrageous, disrespectful, and in incredibly irresponsible pretending you’re telecommuting, ignoring my calls, blowing off your new jobu. When? How could you, I had a very good reason. Oh, well, this ought to be memorable. You’re certain the drug will only erase their. It won’t hurt them.

Okay, then do it. Ralph, the minister, the drug.

Go ahead, tell us your. Good reason for gallivanting to end Indonesia with that ditton playboy. And why shouldn’t fire you on the spot? Wait, calm down. Calm down. Father is gonna go ballistic when he hears about this. You know, I’m, I’m gonna, I’m gonna head out to the square. I’m gonna get some of that nice relaxing herbal tea that you like so much.

And, uh, at the time I get back, hopefully things will be straightened up.

You know what? I know you and Gabby have this girl power thing going, but if you think she can save you from what you have coming, oh, I’m not the one who needs to be worried about what’s coming. What are you talking about Gabby? Stephan and what they’re going to do when they find out what you did to keep them apart.

Sova did. Yeah. It’s terrible. Why? Why would she, why would she even want to kidnap grandma? Who knows what motivated that woman to do anything. She was psychotic

damage on Roman. I tried to warn you. What are you trying to say? This is my fault. You knew she was in the mafia? Yeah. She left that behind her. Apparently not. Apparently she was more than capable of committing vicious, violent, homicidal acts.

But how would you know that you would take it that far? No, no.

I, I was, uh, I was stubborn. I was stupid. And even after she defrauded our family, I. I still wouldn’t listen, and you vanished her from Salem to protect me, and I fought you on it. I defended her, and then she kidnapped my grandma. That had nothing to do with you. It was all about getting revenge on me. Had nothing to do with you if I hadn’t gotten involved with they in the first place.

It’s just none of this. None of this would’ve, uh, none of it would’ve happy make. Son, look at me. Look at me. This is not your fault.

I am so sorry. Thank you. I’m sorry. Thank you.

Your grandmother was a very special person and we will find a special way to honor.

All the things that she did to make our lives better.

Yeah. She, uh, man, that, uh, that gift to hers was, uh, something, uh, something special. Yeah. Yeah. She was the first person who realized I was possessed. The devil raised our memory.

Yeah. Yeah. Kind of like you wanted Dr. Roth to do to me and Jakarta.

Wow. Gorgeous. You and Eric are literally the perfect couple. Well, I mean, I guess these pictures turned out pretty well. Pretty well, they’re amazing. Bella Magazine is gonna sell out at the stands and it’s gonna break the internet. . Okay? You’ve been spending way too much time with Alex Kriyas. , what’s this?

It’s a man moving in on my woman. You’re a woman. What century are you in? Apologies to my strong, independent, consensual companion. Ah, that’s more like it. Uh, how’d you know I was here? Your assistant? Are you too busy to let me take you to breakfast? Mm. I might be able to squeeze you in Uhhuh, . All right, Nicole, you wanna join?

Oh. Oh, no thanks. You, you too. Go. Are you sure? Uh, yeah, I, uh, I have a lot of work to catch up on. Okay, well I love you. I’ll call you later. Love you. Bye bye.

How to get back to leave before he goes nuclear and his sister.

So how’s PJ doing? Not well. He got drunk yesterday at the site where his mother was killed. Thought he saw Ava. Oh, well I heard no one could have survived that. No, he did say he thought he was hallucinating. Mm. Poor guy. Johnny was with him when I left the house, and Johnny had just gotten back from a trip overseas.

Mm-hmm. . Well, hopefully it was a big comfort to him to have his son nearby. Hope you’re right. I tell you, your grandmother died in a horrific crash, and you take that as an opportunity to hold ridiculous accusations against me. I’m sorry about grandma. Look, I, I, I’m, I’m more than sorry. I’m in shock, but that still doesn’t change what you tried to do to me and.

Wendy, Wendy Lee, sister, what the hell does she have to do with this? She came with me to Jakarta. We went there together to track down Dr. Roth, and guess what? We found him and we know everything. What is it you think you know? And you told Dr. Roth to inject us with some kind of memory erasing drug, but he didn’t cuz we stopped him.

Are you sure you didn’t take any drugs in Indonesia? Because that sounds preposterous. It’s. Okay, you can stop pretending because we know what you tried to do to Uncle Stephan.

You sure you’re feeling okay? Jet lag can cause confusion. You did it didn’t you? Did what? Ordered Dr. Rolf to inject me and Johnny with a memory erasing drug.

Do you hear yourself? That ? That’s absurd. Oh yeah. Almost as absurd as you telling Rolf to brainwash Stephan the Marin to hating Gabby so you could have her for yourself. Yeah, that’s right brother. Despite your best efforts, Johnny and I still remember everything Ralph told us. And from the look on your face, it’s clear he was telling the truth.

I thought I’d find you . Well, where else would I be? I don’t have a home and that’s no one’s fault but my own. Your home is with Eric? Yeah, sure. Right next door to his baby mama. I know that that can be awkward. Have you talked to him? Yeah, I just came from the pub and, and, and he, uh, loves you more than anything in the.

And he is over the moon that you two are back together and he’s also over the moon. That Jada’s keeping the baby Nicole. He is looking forward to becoming a father. I know that’s hard for you. It’s reality. I guess. It’s something that I have to get used to.

So decaf is supposedly better for the baby. Eric, I went a little nuts and I went online and I bought six books and I wanna know everything that I can. Things they’ve been a little complicated and I wanted to tell you again how excited I am that you decided to keep this baby because there’s nothing I wanted more than to be a good father, Eric.

Stop. You need to listen to me. There is no baby.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

. Hello. I, I thought that you were having Thanksgiving in New York with, uh, Chad and the children. I was. Jennifer’s brother, Mike and Nancy Miller had us all over for dinner. Nancy Miller, uh, Craig’s ex-wife. That’s right. Apparently she and Mike are seeing each other now, and that’s a good thing. Well, Mike’s a good guy.

Certainly a step up from Clyde Weston. But then it wouldn’t be.

I’m glad that you were able to be with family today. I imagine that the holidays have been especially painful this year. That’s why I decided to come back to work, see what’s going on at The Spectator. Checking up on me. Are you? You are working away. When I came in, big story. Could be you snapped that laptop shot as soon as you saw me, almost like you didn’t want me to see what you were writing.

You’re joking, right? No, this is a serious question. Did you kidnap Bonnie and Susan?

Oh, aj, it’s me again. Listen, will you call me back when you get this? I know you wanna be alone, but I’m just worried about you. I just hope you’re not doing anything. Oh, I hear the door. Maybe that’s you. Oh, Chad. Sorry. Disappoint. I know. Not at all. I was just happy you were Hij. I’m just worried about him.

Mother. Is that you?

Do you need any holler? It’s not your mother you dumb clock.

Yes, again.

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

The article’s about pulling a price. The governor elect’s daughter has been charged with murder. Every news organization in the country is covering this. Would you rather The Spectator didn’t? Are you kidding? It’s happening right here in Salem. You have access to the inside story. You can scoop every newspaper in the country.

I’m hardly what you’d call a seasoned reporter. Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute. Are you afraid that you are not up to writing this story? Is that why you wouldn’t let me look at your draft? No, I mean, . Yes. I mean, there’s something more too. What are you not telling me? Chad doesn’t want me to write about Paulina and Chanel.

Chad, Chad has no business telling you what to write or not to write. I I’ll take care of this right now. Please. Yeah, there’s, there’s, there’s more. Okay. I’ve told Chad that I would do what he wants.

So how come you dropped by, I thought you were gonna spend the holiday in new. Uh, I was, and actually Thomas and Charlotte are still there. Jennifer promised to take ’em for all the holiday fun they can handle. Sir, you didn’t want to join them? I did, but I figured I should come and check on ej. I heard what happened to Susan.

You think I kidnapped two women? Well, I remember what you told me after you quit your job. That your boss wanted you to do something illegal and you decided that meant kidnapping. Yeah. Well, you wouldn’t tell me what she asked you to do, and when I tried to press you on it, you gave me a very vague answer, baby, I know you.

I know that you’re holding something back and it’s big. When you came into the room, when I was watching that news report about the kidnapping, I saw the look on your face. I know Susan Bonnie. I was. What’s your boss ask you to do? I told you Rednecks, who’s a small drug company, right? Whether had to bring a new painkiller to market and they’re gonna claim that it’s not addictive, but it’s a lie.

I don’t wanna be a part of an operation like that. Well, you didn’t tell me that. I mean, my God’s did. Or I’m a doctor. That company has to be stopped. Well, I need you’d say that, which is why I didn’t tell you. But if they’re trying to get people addictive, she dunno who my boss is, what she does to people that crossing.

And you do how her talk. Hmm. That doesn’t sound like an executive of a drug company. That sounds like Ava Vitali.

Are you really here or am I that drunk? Of course I’m here. Did you think you could get rid of me that easily? So you are really here, but your, your car went off the embankment. The petrol tank exploded. A fireman told me that no one could make it our alive. Huh? Well then I guess that means I’m dead.

Yeah. It’s not that bad. Actually. Maybe you’d like to join me.

I can’t believe that Chad would ask you to bury a story this big, and I can’t believe that you would agree to do it. Yeah, well that’s because my main source is my dodgy ex former lawyer, Sloane Peterson. She said she had all the dirt on Chanel’s arrest, and she promised me an exclusive. And did she deliver?

I’ll say she showed me all the evidence that she sent over to the DA, and it looks pretty damning. But Chad said, if I do not fact check every word that Sloan gave, The spectator could be open to a liable suit and it could be put out of business. So you decided not to print it? Well, not exactly. I’m still in the process of getting it vetted.

See, the thing is, I, I don’t wanna cost the, the spectator this exclusive story of the year, but then I don’t wanna put my byline on on something that could be a lie. So, Tell me what should I do?

I don’t know about you, but these chairs I don’t think are very comfortable. I’m lucky for us, this is a very big house with a whole lot of rooms, and a lot of those rooms do have beds in them. So , I really appreciate your attempt at Sty. Is that a. You are impossible.

Oh, sorry. Hey, I didn’t know the two of you were in here. , Maggie. Hi. Happy Thanksgiving. Oh, it’s so good to see you too. So good. We’re just having a little Thanksgiving dinner. Again. Yeah. Hey, my parents are in Seattle with Trip and Joey, so Alex invited me over to Share Your Leftovers. Oh. Trip. He must be having a miserable holiday after what happened with Ava.

Yeah. That’s why mom and dad stayed out there. Yeah. You know, it must be so hard trying to be a good son to a mother like her. I still can’t believe what she did. Yeah. Or Susan Banks. She was such an innocent, she, she shouldn’t have died the way she did. I can’t help wondering if it was all a terrible accident or if Ava drove her car off of that embankment on purpose.

What do you think you’re doing? Boy, you must be loaded. Thought it was fairly obvious. Oh, but for all you know. I’m not really here. I’m just your version of a pink elephant hurt. You calling for your mommy feeling a little guilty. Are you suggesting that you are my conscience? Well, you are the reason all this happened.

You could have just given me the money and taken your mother home, but no, no. You had to prove that you were smarter than me, that you were better than me. And so what did you do? You took. The only son that I had left and kidnapped him didn’t really work out the way you planned, did it? No, because my boy is alive and well.

And your mother, what’s left of her? That’s right. She’s down there. How do I know about for sure? Anina. What? For sure. You’re forgetting one very important detail. I don’t have a conscience. So you are here in the flesh and you made it out of that crash alive. So perhaps my mother did too.

How’s EJ doing? This is probably a stupid question. I’m sure he is devastated. He is. He blames himself. Assistance Jeff. Now he’s convinced himself that he deserves to suffer because of it. Well, he didn’t prove that Ava’s marriage to Jake was a fraud and force her out of. Although I can’t imagine he expected her to retaliate like that.

Well, actually, actually what? I’m afraid that’s not all he did

you think I’d work for the likes of Rav retaliate? I don’t think that you would want to, but you were so desperate to make money and get us out of here. And the more I started to think about that, the more things started to add up, we’ll sings. Okay. Bonnie said that the guy who grabbed her was wearing a blue suit.

You have a blue suit. I love blokes too. She said that she could tell that there were major muscles under that suit. A lot of OC are well built. My mom said that the kidnapper texted her from Bonnie’s phone saying not to worry because she’d be with Mimi. Do a lot of blokes know Bonnie’s life so well that they can mention her daughter by name?

Would a lot of blokes know how to keep two women prisoner in the kiya as shed because they used to work there as the gardener. He, my wife, are the da. I am the wife who loves you and doesn’t want to believe that you did this even though a lot of the pieces fit. Sandra, if you had something to do with this, you have to tell me now.

EJ kidnapped Trip Johnson? Not personally, but he gave the order. Well, I don’t think he intended to harm the young man. I just think he just wanted to be able to trade him for Susan. Oh yeah. That makes it better. Well, let me guess. He, he, he, he figured that if he just kidnapped the poor kid, he could save himself 30 million bucks.

Well, that was only part of the reason. I think he did it primarily for, for leverage. What Leverage well, can, can, victims are killed sometimes, but mu ransom is paid. But you know that I think he was just trying to keep his mother alive. Yeah, I guess I can see that. Listen, I devoted this to you because you’re my brother and I trust.

But there’s one thing that troubles me. You work with Trip sister Stephanie? I don’t work with her. I work for her. But you do consider her as a friend? Yeah. So, so I need you to tell me that you won’t tell her that EJ had anything to do with her brother’s kidnapping. Both of our families have been through a real ordeal.

Thank God. Tripp is safe and Bonnie’s gonna be okay. Yes, she will be. Eventually, what does that mean? I told you she wasn’t in great shape at dinner. Yeah. You know, it’s, it’s hard to recover from being afraid for your life, but she will get better once they catch that clown that did that to her. Right

on. Maggie, do you know something about this guy? I just left Sarah and, uh, she has a theory about what happened. It sounded kind of farfetched to me. Hmm. Can you tell us what she said?

You have to keep it to yourself. We will.

Well, she’s afraid that the man in the clown mask. Might have been zander.

I can appreciate that You want to make the most ethically sound decision. Well, you know, I don’t really have a reputation for truth telling. We both know that, and if any report is gonna be accused of slander, it’s. . So you have to be careful with what you write, but you have been, well, that’s only cause I have you teaching me and backing me up.

Look, the public is a right to know what’s going on in Paulina’s life. So you think I should ignore what Chad wants? Chad is a good guy, but look, he’s working for a Pauline’s PR team. He may have been doing her bidding when he asked you to bury the story. Yeah, I know. I thought of that too, but, I just don’t wanna hurt or upset him anymore than I have.

Look, journalists and PR teams have been fighting since the beginning. I’m telling you right now, you’re gonna have to make a judgment call. Yeah, judgment isn’t really my best event.

The past I would agree,

but I can appreciate. The hard work that you’ve been putting in and how determined you are to be a good reporter really, really makes me feel better about not hiring Xander.

Will you please say something, Sarah? I just feel, I dunno if so hurts because of me. What? I said, look, I went out and I got what I thought was a good job so. Pay off all our debts and moves into a real home. And you said you believed in me. You have no idea what that meant to me. That, that you think I’m a changed man now?

Seems like you think I did something that, but led to two women getting killed. I didn’t want to say that. I just felt like I had to because of a blue suit and some muscles. No, it was more than that. That company that you said you worked for, redneck Victor said he’d never heard of it. I told you it’s a startup one that’s about to market a new pain medication according to you.

So there shouldn’t be any problem looking it up, right? He talking. Well, it’s had to have been around long enough to have a website. Oh, so my, so my word’s not good. You’re seriously gonna look it up. What’s wrong with that? Fine. If you don’t believe me. Go ahead.

Oh, Susan is definitely dead. And you are the soul of honesty. I made sure of it. You wore. Who do you think yanked the steering wheel and drove us off the cliff? He deliberately did that. Of course I did. It was the only way to get even with you. God, I actually believed.

Actually believe that you just ran off the road. Come on. We both know that 30 million didn’t mean anything to you. I wanted to cause you the maximum amount of pain and suffering,

and I realized I could do that with one hard turn to the right.

So you can go ahead, search all you want, search through the brush, search through the wreckage. You’re never gonna find her. So how are you alive? Because I jumped out of the car before it rolled into the embankment. Susan,

Susan was definitely in it when it blew up.

Your mommy is dead

and now it’s your turn.

You are glad you didn’t hire Xander for the job. What does that mean? Xander asked me for a job at The Spectator when, right after your accident, Y I was in the hospital waiting for you to be discharged, and Xander came up and asked me right there. I had no idea. I had just offered you the job. I knew how you still felt about Xander, so I decided right then and there, it was not a good idea for the two of you to be working closely together.

And so you turned him down. I turned him down, and now you seem to be thriving at the Spectator, so I could see it was a good idea. It is a good idea for the two of you to keep a great deal of distance from each other. Uh, actually we haven’t been doing that.

Look, Sarah and um, I. The company’s website, it’s right here.

You think I would rat out my own brother? So after what happened to Abi Girl getting that so far-fetched? No. But then Clyde Wesson tried to kill me. EJ showed up and he saved my life. Not to mention he just lost his mother and I know how much he loved her. I’m not gonna play along, so you won’t say anything to Stephanie.

Thank you. I’m worry about ej. Carol tells me that he’s been gone for hours. God knows where he is ended up. Don’t worry, ej, I’m about to put you outta your misery.

You and Xander have been seeing each other? No. No. Nothing like that. I mean, we’ve just, just been bumping into each other every now and then. I’m, it was a bit awkward at first. I can imagine. But now I’m just glad I, I, I think we can be friends. Are you being straight with me? Yeah. I, I, I, I just saw him the other day actually, and he told me about his new job.

I told him about my job, you know, like that just, it’s all friendly. Honestly, I’m just glad that he doesn’t hate me anymore. Are you sure that that’s all it is? Because I remember how in love with him, you.

And now he’s married to Sarah. I don’t wanna see you hurt anymore. I appreciate that. But really this has all just forced me to take a really hard look at the reality of my life. And the reality is that sand doesn’t love me. He loves Sarah and he’s very committed to their life together, and he’s happy. So I’m happy.

Because he is my friend now and I want, I want what’s best for him.

Oh, God. I, I don’t, I don’t know what to say. I. I mean, I should have known that you wouldn’t make up some complicated lie about where you were working, and I can’t believe that I accused you of kidnapping Bonnie and Susan. What is wrong with me? Nothing, absolutely nothing wrong. You’re perfect. You swore that you would never go back to the life that you were living before and I didn’t believe you.

I’m so sorry. You have nothing to apologize.

I mean, look, there’s even a posting for your job. There it, yeah, right here. Vice president in charge of sales. Wasted no time putting that up. Yeah. Would they must have realized what a loss you were. My mom even told me that. You taught this out with Maggie? Yeah. Well, and I’m gonna call her and tell her what a huge mistake I made.

I’m, you ever forgive me.

You and I better try to find dj. Any ideas where to start? Yes. as good as any, oh, it’s. Hello? Hey, this is Tony. Yes. Chat now. We’re just gonna go out to find him. You did where? Thank you. We’ll be right there. Pray knows where he is. Okay. This seems to be drowning his horn, neither our site. You know where that is.

Right, right, right. Let’s go.

I am glad that you and Zander have gotten to a good place. Didn’t see that coming, did you?

I’m proud of you.

I didn’t expect to hear those words from you ever again.

You’ve earned it. So, uh, why don’t we see what you’ve got from Sloan. Give me all the words and we’ll see if we can come up with a slap for your story. Well, right now. Yeah, sure. What star Thanksgiving.

I, I think it would feel good to be advising a daughter mine again. Oh, Chuck,

why don’t you call me dad and, uh, not just occasionally,

I’m gonna get my things. Take him upstairs, get unpacked. We’ll get down here. We’re good to work. Okay. How can I have him repay you?

Make me a Turkey sandwich.

Sarah really thinks that Xander kidnapped Susan and Bonnie. You have to keep this quiet, Alex, if Victor finds out, I just don’t know what he’ll do. I mean so much for this new leaf that Xander supposedly turned over. From what you’ve told us, Sarah doesn’t have much to go on. Maybe she. Overreacting. That’s what I said.

I, I mean, this guy would’ve to be out of his mind to do something like that to dad’s wife. I mean, Xander’s a member of the family. Yes. But he’s desperate to get his hands on some money. But he has to know how Sarah would feel if he committed a crime to get it. Sarah, I know would be done with him, and it seems to me that he really does love her.

Oh, he does. That’s why I don’t see how he would jeopardize what they have together, not after everything they’ve been through with Kristen and Gwe.

Darling night, I don’t blame you for being suspicious, given the life I’ve led. That was years ago. I should have known that you wouldn’t do something like that. Yeah, I made you feel terrible. Must survive. I dunno what to. Let’s not talk about it. Why don’t we, uh, just scoff down the, or the leftovers, your mum over.

Yeah, that sounds like a plan. I have so much thankful for. We both do.

Hey,

there’s nothing left in this fast.

Oh, my head is sw. Ah yeah. Hey, hey. Ava. Ava, she was here. Djj. That’s not possible. She had a gun. I tried to take it from her and I fell okay. I thought, I thought she was gonna kill me. Listen you, you drank a boat load. Sure. You really saw her. I’m telling you, she was here. She pointed a gun at me. If she was here and she meant to kill you, stopped her.

We gotta get into the hospital. No, I’m not going to any hospital. Listen, you fell down, you hit your head, you were unconscious. That cut. Bear cut’s gonna need stitches. Don’t you understand? I fell when I was fighting aver and she got away. We need to find her. Okay? You too. You have to be quiet about what Sarah said to me now.

Mm-hmm. . You bet. Okay. Well, I’m gonna check on Victor and make sure he, he isn’t raiding the fridge. It gives him indigestion. Oh yes, you too. Night, Maggie. Good night.

Now what were we talking about right before Maggie showed up? Oh, I remember. I remember. Slow down tiger. Why? I think. It is a good thing that Maggie showed up when she did. You weren’t having a good time. Oh, I was having a good time. And what’s the problem? I, I just, I just have this feeling that even I should take things one step at a time.

I hate doing that. I know. But think about how much we’ll both be looking forward to our next date. So there’s gonna be a next date. Mm-hmm. . I think the odds are excellent. Well then in that case,

may I walk you out? I would like that.

Thank you.

My mom’s outta everything. It’s even a bottle of wine in here. Ooh, this is the good stuff. Hmm. It needs to be chilled. Yeah. You think so? Hmm, definitely. Maybe the, uh, ice machine is working today. Oh. We can only help. I will find a cork screw, um, here.

I ever think that he would make up an entire company.

Thank God he’s so understanding.

You are phoning me on Thanksgiving. You wouldn’t believe what just happened. Tell me. Well, I got back to our room and Sarah accused me of being behind the kidnapping. Why? She figured out the whole thing. I, for God’s sake, what did you do? I stood there like a fool and tried to deny it. So are you in trouble?

No, because Sarah decided to prove that Rednecks was a fake company by looking for a website, and she found one. How did you know that? Because I built it and I put it online. I’ve never done one before, so it’s a bit simplistic, but um, I thought it would. Doing a pinch. Oh my God, you saved my. I dunno to thank you.

It’s no need to thank me. That’s what friends are for. You don’t believe me? You don’t think she was Willy here? I’m sure she seemed real to you. I talk to me. That rubbish. She hates you. You passed out on the ground. Why didn’t she finish you off? I, I can’t answer that. Okay. Okay. Let’s go. Let’s go.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Thought I might find you here.

Happy Thanksgiving, honey. Same to you. Mom.

Come in. Thank you.

Is that new? Oh no, that was, uh, that was a, a gift from Susan Banks. I was, I was just thinking about her. I heard the news and I’m sorry. I know you two were close. Well, I’m sorry that I couldn’t host today. I just didn’t really feel like it. But did you have a nice time at the pub? I did. . And I wanted to share some news that I’m very thankful for.

Oh, I’m gonna be a dad.

If you’re looking for Eric, he’s out. Actually, uh, I came here to see you

Leftovers for you and Zander. Thank you, mom. I was hoping you would join us for dinner. Yes. So was I, but Xander wasn’t feeling well. I thought he might rally, but he stayed in bed all day. Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. Um, so where is he?

Here you are. You sure we’re right? Yes. I told you Jack in New York with Jennifer and Chad’s taken the children out there to be with them for the holiday from the old bat and her husband have been asleep for hours.

God, you look terrible. I feel terrible. Look quite, I dunno what I’m gonna do. I feel like my whole life is gonna go up and smoke. Okay. Look, we’ll just let’s calm down and, and just tell me the whole story. Yeah.

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

Eric, I know how much you’ve always wanted a child of your own. It’s just, it’s wonderful news. I heard that you heard what? The hesitation No, I, I wasn’t. I, I didn’t. It’s okay. . I know what you’re thinking. Really? What am I thinking? Jada and I hardly know each other, and it probably wasn’t planned, which is all true.

But she did decide to keep the baby. Oh, and And you’re fine with that decision. It is complicated, but, but Kate of all people helped her with her decision and, uh, not that I know what Kate said to her. Okay. But, uh, uh, darling, you said it was complicated. What does that mean because of Nicole?

It’s been a long day, Nicole, and I’m pretty tired, so Yeah, of course. You’re tired. You’re, you’re in your first trimester and not to mention the triptofen. It looks like you were really having a nice Thanksgiving dinner. How would you know that? I stopped by earlier and I saw y’all sitting around the table sharing what you were grateful for, and I couldn’t help.

But over here at Eric say that you two were gonna raise the baby together. So if you were there, why didn’t you say anything? I didn’t wanna interrupt. So you just left. Well, I, I was afraid that I would spoil the heartwarming moment by bringing up the fact that Eric broke up with you a few days ago to be with me.

I went by your place, Steph said you’d gone out. Since you’ve been ignoring my calls, I figured I’d try and track you down. Well done Hernandez, putting those crack detective skills to work

I’m gonna need that statement about how my mother and Ava Lata wound up crashing through that guardrail and perishing and a raging in front.

You already know most of it. When I met up with Ava to pay the ransom, she lied and said my mother was dead. But then she turned up at the stra. Susan did

that. Psychotic bitch grabbed her and dragged her off a gunpoint. I pursued in my. He was swerved hard and

it’s just never meant to lead Jada on, of course, not. That isn’t who you are, mom. Jada saw Nicole and I kiss him. That’s why she decided that she wanted to end our relationship. Oh, how do you feel about that? I understand. I don’t blame her. I mean, but that doesn’t mean I’m walking away from my responsibility and I never told her what I thought she should do about the p.

Do you want the baby? Of course I do. I mean, people do it all the time, right? Co-parenting without living together, I mean, we just gotta figure a way to make it work together. Nicole and I can be together and that’s what we want. It’s just TA and I have to figure out how to raise this child. I just hope Nicole understands that and she’s okay about it.

So you’re here to what? Give me hell for ruining your little happily ever after. With Eric? No, Jada. I’m not here to give you hell. I I’m here to fight. To what? To make sure I understand that my co-parenting with Eric will never lead to anything else to make sure that we’ll be very business-like about it.

Well, let me be clear, Nicole. I have enough self-respect to not want to be with a man who’s in love with someone. And Eric knows that. I see. I’m assuming his intentions towards you haven’t changed, but you allowed to take that up with him. Dude, I, I’m so sorry. Eric and I never meant for this to happen. We never meant for you or RA to get hurt.

Oh, please just shut the hell. Excuse me. You heard me?

Why do I get the feeling? Because you’re still not telling me the whole story. I know. Detective White dude.

Well, this feels extreme. Even for Ava. I would ever drove her this far. I’ve got a hunch that it was more than some deal she made with you to leave town.

Who knows what drives a lunatic like Angel Vital. I guess I should say drove.

You’re hindering my investigation. Ej, I could arrest you for obstructing justice.

I won’t. Not after everything that you’ve been.

I appreciate that.

I see you’ve heard the news about Ava and Susie, the car wreck. Yeah, the spectators all over it. Right. You’re reporting. I went horribly wrong. How so? Oh, first that nosy body, Bonnie Keaker, she stumbled onto the shed, Ross Hole in Susan and Justin came home and I knew it was just a matter of time until he figured out that Bonnie was missing and they found both her and Susan.

I just, I should have taken that as a sign and ended the whole thing. Asco. But you wanted your payday. Yeah, exactly. So I managed to move Susan right before they rescued Bonnie. Well, so much for that. And Bonnie, she’s, she’s all right. Is she? It’s all right. As she Good, I suppose. But obviously Susan wasn’t Neely as lucky.

Uh, Xander went out to get some air. Hopefully he’ll be back soon and maybe then he’ll finally feel like eating something. Well, there were a lot of leftovers. No one, um, had much of an appetite tonight. How come? Oh, you know, the drama with Bonnie, I mean, I mean, thank God she’s all right. But you saw how upset she got when Rafe was questioning her.

Let me guess. Victor got on her case and ruined Thanksgiving dinner. Listen, as soon as we sat down to the table, poor Bonnie started having these flashbacks of this creepy clown holding her hostage and she got startled by the cork popping and, and her wine glass knocked into the gravy boat and it was just, oh God, it was downhill from there.

Or Bonnie, do the police have any leads on Ava’s accomplice? , as far as I know, all they have is Bonnie’s description of a muscle bound man and a clown mask. Blue business suit,

a blue business suit

kind of like this one.

What you offered. I didn’t expect you to take it. Commissioner Dudley do right? Drinking on the job,

Oh, what can I say? He’s spent a hell of a week. Rough one, huh? Yeah. I mean, obviously nothing compared to what you were going through, but

Nicole and I are getting divorced.

I’m sorry to hear that.

What thought? Considering how much you hate the two of us, he’d be gloating right now. I guess I’m not in the gloating mood.

So what happened? Wait, let me guess. It has something to do with Samantha’s twin brother.

And then I thought I’d come to terms with, uh, becoming a. And then there was a heartbreaking loss of McKenzie. I mean, I know I have nieces and nephews and, and Holly, it’s kind of where I feel that fate has intervened. It’s not too much to hope that all things can work out. Right, right. No, of course not.

You, you said that you’re hoping that Nicole will understand. So I guess you haven’t yet told her that Jada is pregnant and wants to keep the baby. No, I haven’t. And I know it’s a sensitive subject. Of course it’s because you, because you in a call want her to have a baby together. Yeah. And as you know, Nicole can’t have children cuz she can’t care to turn.

I just hope she didn’t feel threatened by this. How dare you? How dare I tell you? I’m sorry, . You’re not sorry. You got exactly what you wanted. So don’t pretend to feel bad for me or that you even care about me because you’re fake sympathy. It just makes it all worse. I’m sorry. I.

Imagine you’re me. I’m new to Salem. I meet this guy. He’s divorced. I’m divorced. His ex-wife seems to be happily remarried. This guy and I, we go on a few dates and we click, we have real chemistry. I be sure it moves, moves pretty fast. I’m, I’m living next door to him. We see each other every day, but. From what I can tell, he, he really likes me and I definitely like him, and so I, I think everything’s great.

But then all of a sudden, his, his, his ex-wife keeps coming around, keeps finding reasons to show up at his door. She even gives him a job. And she swears, she swears that there’s nothing going on between them. And then one day I show up at his office to pay him a visit, and I, I see him locking lifts with his ex, and then later that day, I find out that I’m pregnant with his baby.

So at the same time that he’s, he’s cutting me loose. I find out that I’m tied to this man for the rest of my life.

Really angry. Why the hell wouldn’t I be? Well, I would be too. So I, I, I hope you don’t mind me asking if this is how you feel, if this is how this guy makes you feel, then why would you wanna have a baby that ties you to him forever?

So many times I could have ended it. Greedy, cowardly. Look, Ava can be extremely scary. She’s insane. You know, she was operating outta the Dara crypt. I walked in there yesterday and I caught her talking to the walls. Goodness just got worse from there. And she finally lost it and ordered me to kill Susan.

What? What did you say? I refused, of course, but I was about to take Susan back up to the house when Ava ripped my mask off in front of Susan to give me more, I. In other words, if you didn’t kill Susan, Evan would know what you’d done. Sarah would know. In the end, I just,

I couldn’t bring myself to disappoint her yet again, and I, and I just, I let Susan, then what happened? I. Somehow Ava got Susan back and apparently the ransom handoff went bad. They got into a car chasing, driving off a cliff.

Zander, Zander. This is not your fault. You tried to save Susan. You, you helped her escape. You were not the one behind the wheel of that car. Of course, it was my fault. Agreeing to snatch Susan in the first place. If I hadn’t, Susan would still be alive.

So what are you talking to him about? That’s Sanders suit, his blue suit. Well, surely you don’t think that, I don’t know, mom. I mean, a lot of things are starting to add. Such as last night, Xander told me that he quit his job because his boss asked him to do something that was very wrong. So what was it? He was vague, but he did say that his boss was a woman.

Oh, come on. You don’t think the Xander is working for Ava mom? This sickness came on suddenly, as soon as he heard that Susan and Ava had died. You know that I love Xander and I, I want to believe in him, but he was under a lot of pressure to get this job, and he is the type of person that Ava would hire to do something like this.

Xander’s, not that man anymore. I didn’t think so either. Share why All the suspicion all of a sudden, because it, it doesn’t feel right. And an ethical boss feeling ill after hearing about a terrible tragedy. That doesn’t sound so strange to me. Okay. Then what about the fact that the kidnapper was keeping Bonnie and Susan in the Kiki shed?

Which is where Xander worked when he was the gardener. He knows the grounds. He knows how to get around unnoticed. And remember that Victor said that he had never heard of the company that Xander claimed he worked for. It was a startup, or maybe it doesn’t exist. Maybe Xander made up this job because he was working for Ava Vitali.

Yes, Cole and I are getting divorced because of Eric.

How’d you know? Now the two of them were destined to be together. Everyone knew,

it seemed like every time those two separated, they always ended up finding a way. Come back to each other.

I once thought Samantha and I had that kind of connection. Clearly I was mistaken.

Well, I’m not sure how unbreakable Nicole and Eric’s connection is. Seems like there’s already trouble in paradise.

Eric, this baby complicates things between you and Cole. I think you have to address this with her honey, and I think you’ve gotta do that very soon. Oh, mom, that’s where I was heading next actually. Good, good. Look, this will be. A difficult conversation to have and it could get complicated, but you know what?

You and Nicole have been through so much together and you love each other, so I, I just know you’ll find a way to work this out together.

I cannot believe you just asked me that. Well, it’s, it’s a legitimate. Look, Jada, I know you’re resentful of me. That’s putting it wildly, and I, I, I don’t blame you. I’m just trying to give you some perspective here. Okay. Look, I have been a single mother for years and believe me, my daughter was a surprise and I love her with my whole heart.

But you, you don’t wanna go into parenting with a negative attitude. I cannot ask for your perspective. Okay, that’s fine. I just wish someone had warned me. I’m sorry. Warned, this is the wrong word. I wish someone had painted a realistic picture of motherhood for me. What the hell is that supposed to mean?

It means it’s true what they say about babies. They change your life forever and you need to decide. Before it’s too late. If you’re ready for this change. If, if this is something that you really want, I mean, for example, have you even considered how this would affect your career? Brave told me that I can take leave anytime I want.

Okay, that’s wonderful. But how much of that leave will be paid? And not to mention before you have the baby, you’ll be sitting behind a desk for a. And for an ambitious young detective, that’s gotta be a big setback. Okay? Enough. And when you do go back to work, you’re gonna be exhausted and torn and, and crying all the time, and not just because of your hormones.

It’s guilt. It’s guilt because you love your job and you love your baby, and you try to put your whole heart into both and it’s impossible. And it, and it leaves you feeling bitter and, and not to mention depressed. And yes. We’ll be there for you a hundred percent, but even with that support, Jayda is, is the hardest thing I have ever done.

And of course, I’m, I’m gonna be in Eric’s life now, which means I’m gonna be in yours meant I am just trying to figure out a way to, to work this out, get. I am trying to help Jada. I’m just trying to help get out.

I am going to keep telling you this until you hear me. Zander, this was not your fault. Okay? Ava promised that Susan would not get hurt. Yeah, and I was stupid enough to believe her. I, I know Ava. Ava, and I think that when she hired you, she was telling the truth. This was supposed to be a simple kidnapping, but like you said, it took a horrible turn.

And if you would’ve known how this would’ve turned out, you never would’ve taken that job. You know, when I let Susan go, I, and I thought there’s a good chance she’d run straight to the cops and tell them that you were the one who took her. I almost confessed to Sarah, but then I remembered when Susan.

Begging for her life, she swore to keep her mask shut. But I thought, what if life, by some miracle, she doesn’t say anything. So you didn’t tell Sarah?

I just told her I quit my job and then I saw the news and I got my miracle. Susan will never say anything. Ever again. You didn’t want Susan to die and you did not kill her. Ah, but I, I terrorized her. I, I grabbed her, I drugged her. I tied her up. I I’m not a changed man, Gwen, and the same worthless piece of garbage I’ve always been.

Hi, Hey. That’s not true. Your intentions were good and honorable. This was about you being a supportive husband, a provider. I thing I’ve ever provided Sarah with his pain. I should just tell the truth. No, no. I have to. I This is no choice. No. Yeah. Hell, you don’t have a choice of snow. But Eva is dead and Susan is dead.

Bonnie never saw your face and I’m certainly not gonna bloody say anything. What do you mean that

I could have given you up the other night? I didn’t. I. Even after everything we’ve been through,

like I said to you before, Xander, I still care about you.

I understand you probably better than anyone. Which, um, I’m pretty sure is why you are here.

You trusted me with your secret, and I promise you is.

Sarah. Hmm, darling, when Zander first got his job at the pharmaceutical company, I was skeptical of his honesty at first because he, he wasn’t giving you any details. But now, now what? You, you think I should just believe him no matter what? I think then in this case, you. Letting your imagination run wild.

Xander has a blue suit, so do a million other men. I know. I know. No Lava Vitali was in the mafia. Okay. I’m sure she had a dozen. Muscle bowel enforcers on her payroll.

Honey, I’ve been married to a change man for a very long time, as you know, in spite of what I said to you the other day, which now I regret because. I never like it when people plant seeds of doubt with me regarding Victor’s behavior, artist honesty.

Anyway, the key is truth. To trust that your husband is being honest with you, unless you have overwhelming evidence to the contrary, you think that Xander’s being honest? Yeah, I think Xander loves you more than anything, and now that he has you. I don’t think he’d do anything to risk losing you again.

And now I need to get home to Victor . Okay. Thank you for the food. Oh, you are most welcome. Yeah. And everything is gonna be all right, sweetheart. I promise.

Have you, I love you more

travel and Paradise between St. Eric and her ex-wife to tell, yeah. Excuse me.

Yeah. Colin, what’s up? All right, I’ll be right there. Well, I’ve gotta head back to the station. Sure. I can’t persuade you to come with me. Maybe tomorrow. Definitely tomorrow fine. Okay. But tonight I’m going to sit here with my single malt and wallow just. Promise me you won’t get buying the wheel. My driver’s parked just down there.

All good. Good. And uh, be careful. It’s a blind turn right? Don’t wanna end up like my mother.

No.

What are you doing here? I didn’t draw a holiday shift. I wanted to catch up on some paperwork and, uh, clear my head. You okay? Yeah, it’s just, it’s been a day. Yeah. I hear ya. You’re not wearing your wedding ring. Yeah. Well, Nicole and I talked earlier. We had divorced. I’m sorry. Just figured no point in dragging it out now, even if.

Nicole doesn’t end up going back to her cuz of your pregnancy. My pregnancy will not be an issue.

Nicole. Hey, my God. Oh, I’m, oh, I’m so happy to see you. I was just trying to call you to see if we can meet up. I’m sorry I didn’t call sooner. Yeah. Uh, same. I just wanted to tell you. Jed has decided to have the baby. Oh yeah. But it won’t change anything between us. Ah, are you sure?

I know it’s alive and it’s all happening at once, but we can handle it. We always have whatever life throws at us, we always find a way to make it work. . Listen, Jada and I, our relationship is over and we’re gonna co-parent, and that’s it. I love you and only you,

I promise it’s gonna be okay.

Have you made a decision about the.

I have,

I was gonna go through with a pregnancy until I’ve had time to think about it, to consider what my life would really. Be like, if I did

and I realized,

realized what?

I can’t do it after all.

You feeling better? I, I am. Yeah. The fresh air me good. Good. I’m glad you were out in the cold for such a long time. You must be freezing. Not as bad as I thought. . , something smells good. What better than sweaty gym socks, that’s for sure. Yes. Mom brought us a bunch of leftovers so we can dig in if you have your appetite back.

Uh, I do, and I am starving. Just let me unpack this really quick. Before the cockroaches or any though, why is it right and I will just move your blue suit so we have somewhere to sit, something wrong with. I was just, uh, thinking that maybe over dinner you could tell me if you were the clown that kidnapped Bonnie and Susan.

That’s strange that happened.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Alex, what’s on this? Well, what does it look like?

You said there was a work emergency. There is. It’s Thanksgiving and you have been working way too hard and you promised me a second date, so this is it.

Okay, so, um, just, uh, pop it in the oven for 45 minutes and then let it cool before you serve. Oh, and, um, there’s homemade whipped cream in the fridge if you lift a bowl in there.

Thank you. The least I could do. So enjoy your dinner.

I guess this is goodbye.

Judah and I talked earlier and very thankful, very happy to announce that she has decided to have the. And she and I are looking forward to raising our child together.

Should I go help Kate and your dad with the dishes? Oh no. They got it covered. It’s just not my style to sit around and not help. Yeah. Well, you have an excuse. I do. Um, you’re pregnant. That . Yeah, that, well, it’s a little early to be playing that card, don’t you think? Especially considering that I’m still taking down bad guys as a badass police detective.

That’s a good point. But to be honest, I think it was my dad and Kate’s way of giving us some time to talk. Yeah, I, I picked up on that too. Good. So you can sit back and relax. Can I serve you another piece of. Now that I can do myself, you know, I just, I want to tell you how much I appreciate it, and I’m glad you stayed for Thanksgiving dinner.

I hope it wasn’t too awkward. It was a little but mostly nice. Much better than being alone on the holidays.

Ej, it’s Ray Fernandez. Sorry to bother you again. I know this is a difficult time, but it’s very important I get the full story of what transpired between you and Ava Vitale. I’d like to set up a time for you to come down to the station and give your statement. Or I can come to you, whatever would

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

Allow me. Thank you. You’re welcome. I know your parents are in Seattle with Trip. Can’t have you spending Thanksgiving all alone. Oh God. I feel so awful for Trip. Yeah, me too. Well, I hope you haven’t eaten already. Just a granola bar from the vending machine at the police station. Hmm. How’s Chanel doing?

She’s hanging in there. Abe was able to pull some strings so he and Allie and Polly know were able to have Thanksgiving dinner with her. Good. I’m glad. Speaking of Thanksgiving dinner, didn’t you already eat with your family? Yeah, but you know, it was kind of a hot mess. Bonnie’s still a bit traumatized over Ava and Susan, and she just keeps going on and on about how easily she could have been killed, but she wasn’t.

Thanks to you and your dad.

Ej

hi. Excuse me for interrupting a. Harold thought it might be all right if I came in. I,

I just wanna offer you my condolences. You and Johnny, um, Johnny’s out of town. I, I haven’t spoken with him yet. Oh, so he doesn’t know about Susan. I don’t think so, and I have no idea how I’m going to tell him, especially since this is all my fault.

So what can I expect from a Hernandez family? Thanksgiving? Well, it’s just gonna be me, you, and rave. So I think this is gonna be low key. Low key’s. Good. Right. No drama for a change. Hey Lee, can I get you a beer? Well, actually, Lee brought a really nice bottle of wine. Oh, we can have that for dinner. Yeah, I take a beer.

All right, J, you know what? Sure, why not. All right. Three beers coming up. Hey, thanks for inviting me. Yeah, man. Of course you know you’re gonna be family soon. Oh man. Oh my God. Where’s la? Is she in her room? Oh, she stayed over at Sunny’s after the parade. Oh, all right. I made her favorite cornbread with Jala.

Oh, um, sorry. She, uh, was talking with Holly about this cheesy Christmas movie they wanted to watch. I told her it was okay.

You upset? No, no, no. That’s just, uh, yeah. Nicole and Holly we’re here. Wouldn’t even be an issue. And they’re not here. You know why? Because Nicole is a ridiculously fickle person who doesn’t appreciate the amazing husband that she. Nicole ruined everything. I swear to you, one day she’s going to realize what an idiot she was for leaving you for Eric Brady.

She’s gonna regret the hell out.

Another benefit to being pregnant. . What is, oh, you’re eating for two. It’s almost like you got a free license to use as much as you want. , listen, pregnant or. I do not need permission for that.

What? Nothing. It’s, you know, I’m just really happy. I’m really happy you decide to keep the baby. I promise you, jd. I’m gonna be there for a kid. A hundred. I’m calling to be a good dad. I know. You’ll, and you said the other day that you already wanted to be a father. I, I did. Just never thought it was gonna happen.

You know, my life went different directions and I became a priest in a different kind of father . Right. And after you left the priesthood, oh, I just didn’t think it was in my cards.

What about you? You always wanna be a mom. My ex-husband and I, we discussed it, but we were so busy with our careers that we decided to put it off. Hmm. Which I’m glad we did because our marriage didn’t last. Sure we could have co-parented like you and I are going to do, but you would’ve been really complicated.

Hey, you were not gonna make this work. You believe that, right? Yeah, I do. But, but why? One? I just can’t help but wonder how Nicole’s gonna feel about this. I mean, what is she gonna say when she finds out that I decided to keep this baby?

Hey, Nicole, Helen. Hey, happy Thanksgiving. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving. . Uh, how’s, uh, how’s Chanel? Did they let her out for the holiday or No, the bail didn’t come through in time. Oh, no, I, I’m so sorry you didn’t get to see her. Well, actually we did. Mm-hmm. , uh, all and my wonderful husband here made a Thanksgiving feast and they let us share with Chanel at the station.

Oh, I’m so glad to hear that. I’m sure she was so grateful. Well, uh, how about you and Holly? What’d you do for Thanksgiving? Well, she had dinner with Maggie and her family, and. Supposed to host a gathering with Rafe, but you know, we’re getting divorced now. Yeah. So sorry to hear about that. Yeah. I hate hurting him.

I was over at his place packing my things and it was, it was pretty tense. I bet it was. But, He let me help out by baking my mom’s pumpkin pie for his family. Well, nobody made a better pie than Faye Walker’s . Oh, again, now you didn’t let me finish. Nobody except my wife and my stepdaughter. That is the same.

Well, since you missed out on Thanksgiving dinner, I’m, Hey, well we grab a table and dig her to some leftovers. Uh, Melia. Are you sure? Yeah, of course. We sure. It’ll give us a chance to catch up and give me a chance to, uh, have a little bit more stuffing . . Well, that sounds lovely. Thank you. . Yes,

I wasn’t exactly a hero. I literally just walked in the shed with my dad and we found Bonnie. Well, you didn’t know what you were walking. , that freak in the clown mask could’ve been there. I wish he was. I think half of Salem bought out those Halloween masks. I, who knows if they’re ever gonna find the guy.

Well, if an Insane clown Posse breaks in here, I’m confident you’d protect me. Oh, definitely. You kidding me? I’m not letting any bozo. Get my girl . Anyway, let’s eat. . Wait, are you telling me that the Kriyas Klan doesn’t start with a clam chowder, appetizer? Something tells me you’re more a Cornish game hens than be blank gravy.

Okay. Whoa, you’re, you’re forgetting that I grew up in Adrian’s house. Me and my brother, we used to fight over these bad boys right there. Stephanie Johnson. You are about to indulge on a rare culinary delicacy. Grandma Joe’s stuffing muffin. Oh, you know about Grandma Joe stuffing muffins . Yes. We’ve eaten them only every year.

I thought I was about to blow your mind now, Alex, you did blow my mind. I thought I was going to spend tonight alone eating a microwave frozen Turkey dinner, but now my Thanksgiving is truly complete.

Mm-hmm. . Mm-hmm. . Mm-hmm. . Mm-hmm. . Oh.

How could you possibly be responsible for Susan’s death? I mean, for what I understand Ava kidnapped her and then drove the car off the road. She did all that to retaliate against. punished me for what I did to her. What did you do? I found out that her and my brother’s marriage wasn’t real. She faked the whole thing as part of some scheme with Gabby Hernandez, and so I exposed her, took back all her shaz of the mirror and left it with nothing.

Well, she, she can’t possibly blame you for that.

She was committing fraud. I thought I didn’t stop there.

I bashed her from Salem.

Johnny was starting to develop feelings for Ava and I didn’t want her anywhere near my son, so I threatened her in prison. If she ever returned. Needless to say she didn’t comply. She came back and kidnapped Susan.

She demanded a huge ransom and I arrogantly thought I could out maneuver out. All I did was provoke her father, and now my mother is dead.

Ej, please don’t blame yourself for this. How can I? Huh. My ego, my vindictiveness, my absolute refusal to relinquish control is what got my mother killed. Just like it. Got advocate or killed. Oh, no. No. I thought I could handle ply on my own.

Was fighting my time to get my revenge. And Abigail is dead because of it, and it so easily Could have been your daughter. Yes, bill told me. But there’s no way that, that you’re responsible for what, what Clive did or what Ava did. I am responsible for my own action.

I should have told Chad right away that Clyde threatened our family, but instead of sharing what I knew, trusting my own brother so that we could work together to neutralize the threat, I was prideful and selfish. Now, Chad is a widower with. I didn’t speak up with Eva. I didn’t listen. Tony begged me, begged me to pay the ransom, but once again, I knew best both times it was all about me and two innocent women paid the price.

Tony warned me. Warned me that Ava was dangerous and unpredictable, but I, I had to show her I had to win,

declare Czech mint, so while I was running around playing stupid games. My mother was locked up somewhere. Scared out of her mind. You did the very best you could. No. No, I didn’t. I let down the one person who loved me unconditionally my entire life. I could have saved her, but I didn’t.

I didn’t. Ej ej, you’re right about part of that. Your mother loved you unconditionally. She would never wanna see you punishing yourself like this. She wouldn’t, she wouldn’t wanna see it happen,

maybe. Alright. But I was a terrible son.

She deserves so much better.

Cook did a good job with these. Mm-hmm. , maybe a little bit too much sage, but, Hmm. Tasted great to me. Hmm. Well, I have a very sophisticated tongue pal. I mean, palate, . I’m in palate. I bet you too. Hmm. There’s one left. Come on. I know you want it. . I, I couldn’t possibly have another bite. I think you can. Okay.

You ready? You are not feeding me, Alex. All right, fine.

I am all about respecting your boundaries. Ah, go. My God, he’s a GOs mcal. Oh my God. Hmm hmm. So I’m assuming Nicole is spending Thanksgiving with. I don’t know. She didn’t say what her plans were when she was here earlier. Wait, Nicole was here earlier. Why? Yeah. She came to pack up some of her things and, and she made a pumpkin pie.

Oh, I love pumpkin pie. You came, hold on a second. So she, she dumps you for another man and then she thinks that baking is gonna make it all better. You, you should have shoved that pie right in. Actually, after she left, I did throw it in the trash. Good. Oh wait. Um, there’s no pie. All right. Look, I am not exactly Nicole’s biggest fan right now, but she, I mean, she was just trying to help.

She feels guilty. Well, she should feel guilty. She should be consumed with. You, you’re with me, right, Lee? Look, she took your heart. She broke it into a million pieces and where she’s gonna live, happily ever after. With Eric, maybe not,

you know, call. She understands how much I’ve wanted a child. She’ll be okay with it. Are you sure about that? The man she’s in love with is having a baby with another woman. How could that not be hard? Well, I never said it was gonna be easy, but I will make it clear that it’s, she’s not gonna affect our relationship.

She’ll definitely be supportive if you say so. You’re doubting that, look, I’m not trying to throw shade, but real talk. The Nicole Walker that I’ve seen is incredibly insecure and territorial. There is no way she’s gonna take this news and.

You’re not eating much. I know. It can’t be the food. Ah, no. Everything’s delicious. Something wrong.

It’s just that, uh, before I, I ran into you, I had gotten some upsetting news. What happened? I don’t know if you know, but Jada Hunter is pregnant with Eric’s baby. Oh, good. Gravy. We hadn’t heard. She found out around the same time Eric ended things with her to be with me. Oh, now that’s some unfortunate timing.

Yeah, I, she wasn’t sure if she was going to keep it, and then I walked in and overheard her and Eric telling Kate and Roman they were gonna have the baby and they. Raise this child together. That’s a big decision. I mean, it kind of ties them together in a certain way. Yeah, it sure does. Oh, well, honey. Well, but what does Eric say about your relationship?

Nothing. I mean, I, I ran outta there before he saw me, but it seemed pretty clear Eric’s gonna dump me and stay with Jada and the baby.

I must have been a great disappointment to my. She worked so hard to mold me into a good person. What all she got was an egotistical, ruthless son of a bitch. No, I can tell you for a fact you were never a disappointment to your mother. You were the love of her life. She was so proud of you. She would talk about.

How charming you were. What a good son. What a good father. I think she was a bit biased. Yeah. . Only because she loved you. So

you know, from the day you were born, you were the center of her life. You,

you were Elvis. You are a beloved son.

You know, it was funny. Um, mother was often scared of a very unha, but when it came to protecting her family, she was fearless. Well, You never wanna underestimate the mother’s love for her child. Jada is pregnant with Eric’s baby. She is. I love it. Nicole and the kids what she deserves. Gabby, come on. You can’t tell me he doesn’t warm your heart.

That karma gives her a swift kick in the ass. There is a baby involved. This is a tough situation for. or hear me out, this could be a great situation for Jada. Maybe her and Eric will finally get together again, and that will leave Nicole with no one, which actually warms my heart to no end. Gabby, I know you’re trying to be supportive of your brother, but I, I’m not so sure this is helping.

I, I, I might the only one seeing the bigger picture here. Okay, cool. What are you doing? I am going to send Jada and Eric. Hey, baby. No, no, no. You are not. Why not? No. Well, for one thing, you don’t send baby gifts until around when the baby is born like a baby shower. Is that not true? Oh, I guess, yeah, I guess it is.

Yeah. And for another thing, we are not gonna gloat. Okay. Why think about Nicole. I mean, it’s Thanksgiving right now. Okay? I do not wanna be thinking about my soon-to-be ex-wife. Can we just focus on happier things? Yeah, yeah. Like our upcoming wedding. Yes, exactly like your upcoming wedding. That’s fine. I’d rather talk about us anyway.

I’m glad to hear it. Ted. You know what, I actually, I wanna make a toast. It’s my little sister and her fiance. I’m really happy for you two. Well to love and to laughter forever sa sad Salu salo.

I really thought Eric and I were finally gonna be together and put all our troubles behind us. Mm. Honey, I’m so sorry. Oh, what a miss. Yeah, especially because. Always wanted children so much, and we all know how old fashioned he is, so I think he feels he owes it to the baby to be with a mother. Plus, he and Sammy came from a broken home and we all know how messed up she is, and he just doesn’t want the baby to turn into another.

Sammy, you know, you need to talk to Eric about this. Yeah. Well, I would’ve liked to have had this discussion before he and Jada told the world that she was carrying his baby. I do agree with you. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. My Eric needs a, a chance to explain, Ben, maybe he misunderstood. Oh, no, I understood.

And like I said, it’s crystal clear. I’m out and Jada and the baby are in.

Now I’m gonna talk to Nicole. I honestly believe that we’re not gonna have a problem with her. Is this like a faith thing? No, it’s just, you know, once I talk to her, I’ll make sure she knows that she has nothing to worry about that. You gotta trust me on this. Okay. I trust you. Thank you. Are you sure you don’t want any help cleaning up?

Oh, no, I got it. Well, in that case, I think I should probably head upstairs and finish packing. Whoa. Whoa. What’s the. Well, I know I said I would stay until the end of the month, but now I’m thinking I should probably move out tomorrow since I have the date off. Well, you know what I’ve been thinking now that you’ve decided to have the baby, maybe you should move out.

After all.

I don’t get it. Why shouldn’t I move out? Well, You know, I mean, if it’s okay with you, I, I just wanna be involved with this pregnancy as much as I can. I mean, I could take your doctor appointments or, or, or, or birthing classes, just whatever. I mean, it’ll be a lot easier if you were close by. It’s not like I’m moving out of the state.

You can still be involved even if I’m not living down the hall. Yeah, I know. But what if you have a late night craving? I could, you know, I could come to the kitchen. And you know you’re gonna just need a lot more help once the baby comes again. What about Nicole? I never said that we weren’t gonna have to figure things out, but by the baby’s sake, we’re just gonna have to put our best foot forward.

Well, you know, I can, and I know you can. . Nicole doesn’t even know that we decided to keep this baby. Yeah, but I’m gonna talk to her soon. I’m, you saw how wonderful it went with my dad and Kay. Right. That’s a little different. That’s the point is, is that a baby can bring people together. Just, you know what?

Let’s just give it a chance. Let’s take it step by step.

Okay. I’ll stay for now.

Go. You know, I think you should go back over to the pub and talk to Eric. What? I just can’t crash his family’s Thanksgiving dinner. They’d be glad to see. What, what am I supposed to say? Oh, I overheard you telling your dad you’re done with me. And you know, besides, he should be reaching out to me. I’m the one who.

Handed my marriage to be with him. Okay. Now that part I agree with. This is all Eric. Now is not the time to stand on pride. Maybe not, but the boy’s going to break up with her then he is going to have to make the first step. We have no idea if that’s what Eric is planning,

you should go and talk to him. Abraham, me, you. Yeah, you, you know, you’re basically his uncle. What would I say? Well, you can start off by telling him, he’s being a big dummy. I don’t think that’s my place. Why not? I mean, Nicole’s like a throw to you, right? Yes. Yes, she is. And while I would view almost anything for you, I just don’t think I should interfere in this.

Yeah, I understand. Well, I don’t, you are not going to put Eric in his place then. I will.

That was quite possibly the best Turkey dinner I have ever had. Wow. Even without the gilet and gravy. Thank you for doing this. It was amazing. It’s my pleasure. Did you save room for dessert? I really couldn’t eat another. Really, may I present an alternative? Mm-hmm. , go for it.

I know this was probably an unconventional second date. Probably not what you had in mind, right? But I promise you, I’m going to up my game next time. Bungee jumping skydiving , Alex? Yes. It was perfect.

You and my mother had quite an unlikely friendship.

She was so warm and compassionate, and her enthusiasm was contagious. She suddenly did idolize. Her beloved, Dr. Marena, Evan. Hmm. She made me a gift when I got married. She made a doll that looked exactly like me. . Oh, certainly does sound like Mother , but she went to such trouble for it. I mean, she even made a, a minia.

Dress of the gown that I was wearing when John and I got married in 1999.

I think it was the most touching gift I had ever been given.

I wish told her there’s a lot. I wish I told her.

Well, certainly I inherited many qualities from my father, my ambition, my temper, but if I have any good in me at all, it came from my mother.

She was the best.

I have to tell. That was a lot better than pumpkin pie. Mm-hmm. , how about a second? Don’t mind if I do.

Oh, then I should be just about ready. You guys can go sit at the table. Are you sure you don’t wanna. Well, no. Come on man. What kind of host would I be if I made you guys clean up? Okay, well then we’ll see you in there. Alright? Okay. I get that there’s no pie, but does that mean there’s no dessert at all?

Come on.

Thank you so much. Mm-hmm. , Paulina for wanting to help but Abe’s right. I, I, I really should deal with Eric on my own su. Abe . Thank you for dinner. . I’m sorry that he’s such a donor. You are not a Don . You were a bit of a donor. , what’s your title? Why don’t you come over without place and have some coffee?

Thank you. I just think I wanna be alone for a little while. Okay, honey. But you know, if you need anything, anything at all, don’t hesitate to call. Thank you so much for saying that, especially with everything that Chanel’s going. And Paulina, I’ll be praying for her. Come on. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Oh, what’s her? One less piece of advice. Now. I still think Eric is making a big mistake if he stays with Jada out of some sense of obligation. But honey, if you love him, then you can’t just sit. And let ’em slip away. You two have been through too much for you to give up without a fight.

I know I said I was going to unpack, but I think I could use a nap first. Oh, yeah. It sounds like a good plan. You need to rest. So are you going to see Nicole? I will. I just, I’d stop by and see my mom first. Tell her about the good news with the baby and all. She just lost a dear friend. I was just hoping I could help lift her spirits.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Yeah, we are gonna miss you today, but I am, uh, glad you guys are there for trip. Let him know we’re thinking about it. All right? Yeah. Love you too, sis. How’s trip? Uh, four kids having a tough time. I mean, losing his mom right before the holidays. But your aunt ca and Steve are looking after. Well, at least he’s in good hands for sure.

But that also means we’re gonna have two lost people for Thanksgiving dinner. So I hope you and Jada are hungry. Otherwise we’re gonna have a tunnel leftovers that about Pa Jada. There’s something you need to know.

This is Brady. Hi, happy Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving, and please call me Kate. I’m just getting used to my married name. Oh, congratulations on your wedding, by the way. I heard it was a lovely ceremony. Well, yes, it was as lovely as it could be on your deathbed, but you’re totally recovered now, right?

Yeah, no, I’m feeling great and I came up to tell you that dinner will be ready in an hour. Uh, well actually I wasn’t planning on coming to dinner. I had a lot of packing to do. Packing Eric didn’t tell you I’m moving out.

The last time we were here in this kitchen when I was arrested, uh, you know, I had asked you what you thought about starting our relationship and uh, he never really answered me well. There was a lot going on. True. Yep. Yeah. But now here we are, back in the kitchen. So I’m gonna ask you again, what do you think?

No, Chanel is still in police custody. My Aunt Fells trying to get her bail, but I haven’t heard anything, so thanks. Yeah, it was really good talking to you too. Uh, again, trip. I’m so sorry about your mom. Take care of yourself. Okay, bye

Chanel.

Can you look disappointed? No, I’m, I’m, I’m always happy to see you. I just thought it was Chanel.

Mama. Oh, Chanel my poor baby. Oh, I haven’t stopped thinking about you. Not even for a second. Same. Happy Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving. My precious girl

like sands through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

I was praying that I was gonna see you today. I should have come sooner. I wanted to, but they’ll advised me to stay away. Said it’s what’s best for you right now, which makes no sense. You needed your mama wasn’t here. Oh my darling girl. I’m so sorry. No, mama. I’m the one who’s, sorry. Wow. You are moving out.

Why? Well, because living here might be a little awkward now that Eric and Nicole are back together. What, when did that happen? Uh, pretty recently. Well, I, I’m so sorry. I mean, I’m sorry not to have you here, but I can understand you wanting to make a clean break. Well, unfortunately that may not be possible.

Why not? So, uh, Jada’s pregnant

and you don’t seem too happy about it? No, I, I, I am. It’s, it’s a blessing. It’s just, you know, I’ve always wanted to have children, but it was obviously not. Of course not. I mean, well, because Jada and I, I mean, we’re not on the best of terms. Something happened. Yeah, yeah, it did. I mean, right before I, I got news about the baby Nicole and I decided to get back together.

Are you here? I came to get the rest of my things. Yeah. Well I already told Eric I’d have him sent over to the pub. Yeah, well you, you shouldn’t have to do that. And I came here because I thought you would be at the station. And also to avoid, well this, that is so Nicole. Yeah. Always taking the easy way out.

I heard about the accident last night. Yeah. Well, it’s still on our investigation, huh? Yeah, I, I know, I know you can’t talk about it. I just, I know we had our issues with Ava, but I still feel terrible about what happened. Yeah, yeah, me too. I heard EJ was there. He must be devastated. Couldn’t even get him to gimme a statement.

I can’t even imagine what he’s going through right now.

I got everything Holly and I need for now. I’ll, I’ll send for the rest later. How is Holly? She’s a little confused about everything that’s going on, but you know, generally she’s okay. It’s with Maggie right now until I find a place to settle down.

Still cooking Thanksgiving dinner. Yeah. Well, uh, I made a promise I want to let Ari and Gabby down. You know, they’ve been looking forward to this. So is I Sorry you had to do everything. I’m wrong. Oh, it’s fine. I make deal turkeys in the air fryer. Just have to, uh, make a couple. Oh my God. I was supposed to make my mom’s pie.

Please tell me you have another dessert. Well, actually I did send Gabby to, uh, go to Sweet Pit Spa. They were closed. Okay, mom, I could still make it. No. Why not? They’re still time. I said, no, you cannot have Thanksgiving dinner without dessert. Please, Ray, if it’s the least I could do, if not for you, then for your family, fine for Ari.

It’s the only reason I’m saying yes. Hey, one pie coming up.

I’ve been baking a lot to keep myself from worrying about Chanel 24 7. In a weird way, it kind of makes me feel close to her. Hey, is uh, is that big mama sweet potato pie? Yes. Chanel and Paulina used to make one every Thanksgiving, so I figured it was a good choice, . Um, but anyway, how Salani, I heard you went down to Maryland to tell her about.

Yeah. Yeah, she, she misses her family, obviously, but I assured her that her, her sister’s getting a lot of support. I, I heard that you, you got a chance to see Chanel yesterday. Yeah. Trask wasn’t allowing visitors, so I had to get special permission from Rafe. But yeah, um, it was really good to see her. It was good to spend some time together.

Has Paulina been able to see her yet? She’s at the station right now. Oh. And I, I would’ve been there with her, but she asked me if I could come check on you. Oh, that’s very sweet, . How you holding up? Uh, honestly, I’m terrified. Just the other day, Chanel and I were talking about our future together. You know, getting married, possibly having kids.

And now it’s like, but if we have no future, sweetheart, you have absolutely no reason to be sorry. But I ruined your big day. You were elected governor and instead of being able to celebrate, you were publicly humiliated because of me. Please. The only person to blame for how it all went down is that horrible da.

She insisted that Detective Brady arrest you at the worst possible moment. Yeah. And now the whole world knows that your daughter committed murder.

You know that incident that Chanel was involved in, Paulina filled me in on the whole story. Yeah, it was just an accident. Chanel did not intend to hurt that woman. Do you think a jury will believe that? It’s hard to say. You know what concerns me is, is the coverup. Paulino meant well, but, well, it’s, uh, it could be a problem.

I’m just so sorry that Chanel and her mom have to go through this.

I do too, Allie. But we have to be strong for them. That’s. That’s all we can do for now.

You are not a murder Russian now. You were only defending yourself. That woman lured you to that roof and attacked you because I was sleeping with her husband. Well, that still doesn’t give her the right to put her hands on you. You were just a young girl. I was a college student, old enough and smart enough to know that I shouldn’t be going to bed with a married man.

A married man was your professor. He had all the power and he took advantage of it. He preyed on you. Chanel. Okay. Even if he did, even if he did lie to me and lead me on, it doesn’t change the fact that I was the one who pushed Martha Bedford off of that building. You were fighting her off. If you hadn’t pushed her, you might have been the one who fell to your death.

What happened was a tragic accident. No one is to blame no matter what that what that spiteful daughter says. But daughter, oh my God, I forgot. You didn’t know Chanel. Sloane Peterson is not just some random lawyer. She’s not? Nope.

She’s the daughter of Martha and Nathan. She’s hell Ben, on revenge.

So what’s the plan? Uh, I’m not sure with Jada being pregnant now, I don’t, I don’t know where I stand with Eric. I met with our divorce. God, I’m sorry.

You know what? I haven’t really thought about it yet. I haven’t really thought about it. Okay. Well I figured there’s no reason to wait. So, um, after the holiday you might as. Get a lawyer and I’ll do the same. Okay? And don’t worry, I’m not gonna fight you or drag it out just because you were in love with your ex-husband the whole time we were married, right?

Uh, we’ll just, um, we’ll just call it irreconcilable differences.

After we talked and Cole and I, we realized that we couldn’t deny it any longer. We loved each other. We wanted to be together. Well, I’m not surprised. And uh, as long as you’re happy, that’s very important to me. So, uh, Nicole is ending her marriage to Rafe, obviously. Yeah. And I decided to end things with.

But before I could do that, I got a call from rape that Jada had fainted. So Nicole and I went to the hospital and that’s where Sarah broke the news to Jada and I. So Jada was pregnant. Yeah, which was a total surprise. I mean, we were careful and while it’s a blessing, It’s just the timing couldn’t be any worse, obviously.

So what does this mean for you and Nicole? That’s a good question. So does, does Eric know about the pregnancy? He was there when I got the news. Okay. That didn’t change anything. Not for me. I’m not looking to trap a man who wants to be with someone. No, no, no. Absolutely. I mean, I, I understand that, and I have to admit that before you came into the picture, I, I was encouraging Eric to get back with Nicole, probably saw their undeniable chemistry along with everyone in Salem.

Okay. I also saw you and Eric together, and it’s very clear to me that he has feelings for you. Not as strong as his feelings for Nicole, but you are carrying his baby now. And for a man like Eric, that carries weight. Meaning what? Meaning that I don’t think you should give up on that relationship so easily.

I mean, it’s not for your baby, for you.

Eric is pretty committed to Nicole and she’s already told rape that she wants a divorce. It’s a pretty done deal. Yeah. I don’t know the, the number of times those two have gotten together and broken up. I mean, I really, I couldn’t even count them, you know? I mean, if you are really interested in a relationship with him, kind of in your way, fight for him.

I appreciate your advice, Keith, but Eric’s made his decision and now it’s time for me to make. On whether or not I’m going to keep this baby.

So you’re thinking of terminating the pregnancy? I grew up in the church, so it’s not my first inclination, but I also believe in a woman’s right to choose Stu. Under these circumstances, it’s just not ideal to bring a baby into this world. Uh, no. I mean, they aren’t ideal circumstances, but knowing Eric, I think he would be in favor of keeping the baby.

Yes. He’s, he’s made it clear that he’s gonna support whatever decision I make. Okay. Well then you need to figure out what you want. I, I wanted to be with Eric, and if Nicole wasn’t in the picture, I, I think I would’ve been happy to raise a child with him, but I, I don’t think I’m prepared to be a single parent, and so I was thinking that maybe baby, maybe I shouldn’t have this baby.

Obviously, I still love. And I want to be with her. We’re just gonna have to have a long conversation of how this is gonna work. If Jada does keep the baby. If she hasn’t made a decision head, is she leaning one way or the other? I don’t know. It’s her decision to make, and I’ll respect it, whatever it turns out to be.

But if you add your way, like I said, of course I want to be a father. Never got to be a father at a little McKinsey. I just hope that whatever decision Jada doesn’t make, it’s not because of what I’ve done. Although, although what? No, I would understand. She doesn’t want to have a baby with a guy who left her for his ex-wife.

So there was no mystery client? Nope. Sloan is the one who’s blackmailing us to avenge. Your mother, Nathan? He, he told me that he had two kids, but he never told me their names. I can’t believe this. So his daughter has been here in Salem, lying and wait for over a year. Goes back much further than that.

Sloane was in law school when Martha died. Initially, her father claimed it was a suicide, but on his deathbed, he admitted to Sloane that that was a lie. He passed away before she could find out more, so she launched an investigation of her own and managed to dredge up the evidence that I had buried long.

Now she wants us both to pay for it. Trask threatened to have you arrested if I didn’t talk. Did you Bell shut it down pretty quickly. But Trask could still charge you for covering up my crime. I won’t let that happen, mama. I will not let you pay for something that I did. Don’t you worry baby. I’ve been in plenty of jams and I’ve always gotten out of them.

Now, trust me, this is no. You and I, we’ll be just fine.

Today was supposed to be our first real holiday as a couple. Chanel and I were so excited to spend Thanksgiving with you and Paulina. You know, maybe that could still happen. I highly doubt Chanel will make bail. Well, I still haven’t stepped down as mayor, so perhaps I could pull a few strings and we can all spend the holiday together.

I didn’t realize how much I really needed to talk to someone about this. Thank you so much for listening. Of course. Anytime. Well, I better get back to packing. So, um, are you leaving today? Um, my rent’s paid till the end of the month, so, um, I’ll be staying for a few more days. Well, in that case, I think you should take a break and join us for dinner.

I don’t think that’ll be a little awkward. Of course it will be awkward. Thanksgivings are always awkward , but it will give you and Eric a chance to talk.

I’ll think about it. Okay, fair enough. And one more little piece of. At the end of the day, forget about Eric. Forget about Nicole. Guess it’s your life, your body, it’s your decision.

Can I run a hypothetical by of course, if Nicole wasn’t a. And you found out that Jada was pregnant, how would you feel? Would you have wanted to raise a child with Jada? I think so, dad, everything’s just happening so fast and it was early in our relationship and Jada is a good person. We did along well.

There’s no point in bringing it up because Nicole is a factor. I love her and I always will. It’s why it’s just become such a big mess. Well, that’s quite an understatement. Just just heard the news. J’s pregnancy. How does she sound? Well, not to break a confidence, but I don’t think she could feel worse about having conceived a child with a man who’s in love with someone else and always has been.

Okay. So, um, Just, uh, pop it in the oven for 45 minutes and then let it cool before you serve. Oh, and um, there’s homemade whipped cream in the fridge. I left a bowl in there. Okay. Thank you. Least I could do. So enjoy your dinner.

I guess this is goodbye.

I promise you, baby, I will get us outta this mess. , thank you. And I am so grateful that you’re looking out for me, mama. I’m just, I’m worried about what this is doing to everyone else who’s getting dragged into this. Like who? Well, I’m sure Abe’s reputation is taking a hit and then there’s Allie. I had to tell her what I did.

Mama, I’m so ashamed. Oh no. I’m sure she understands. You said she does, but. Now that she knows about my past, what if she decides that she doesn’t wanna be with me anymore? That is never going to happen. What are you two doing here? Well, since you couldn’t come to Thanksgiving dinner, we brought Thanksgiving dinner

before I go. I just wanna tell you again how sorry I am. You are such a good man, and you didn’t deserve this. I don’t know about that. Maybe I did and you and I hooked up. I was still with Ava.

Who’s some sort of carmic intervention?

No, I don’t believe in any of that.

If you’ve, you’ve always been such a good friend to me all these years, and I just wish that we could still be friends that we can. Resume what we had before things got complicated.

Yeah. Yeah. I just, I don’t, I don’t see how that’s possible.

Please, not now.

Okay. I understand.

So we may need another place setting because I asked Jade to, to join us for dinner, although I’m not sure that she will. Maybe I should go talk to her. No need. I would like to join. And if you still have room at the table, of course we do. Um, maybe we should go check on the dinner. Okay.

Hey, I’m really glad you decided to join us for Thanksgiving dinner. I just had a really long talk with Kate and she was great. She offered me some really good advice and it gave me some clarity about our situ. Have you made a decision about the baby yet?

I have.

All.

Okay. Who wants more pie? . Not me. I am stuffed. Me too. Yeah. Everything was delicious. Thank you for including me. Well, it was lovely to have you with us. Okay. You know what we haven’t done yet is go around the table and say what we’re thankful for. It’s a big part of our Thanksgiving ritual. Yes, it is. So I’ll start.

I am very grateful that Katie was able to make a full recovery and very, very grateful that she did me the tremendous honor of becoming my wife.

I am grateful too for being here. And for being married to you? My love, my husband. I’m also grateful for my children and my grandchildren that they’re all healthy and I really wish they were here, but they’re not. But I am mostly grateful for everyone who is here and that we could share this Thanksgiving together.

Okay. So who would like to go next? I will, Jada and I, we had a conversation earlier. I’m very thankful. I’m very thankful to announce that Jada decided to keep the baby. Oh. Oh, you’re going to be raising this baby together. Oh.

Alex, what’s on this? Well, what does it look like?

You said there was a work emergency. There is. It’s Thanksgiving and you have been working way too hard.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Come on one. I make heels and you walk so fast. I know, but Sweet Pits is about to close. I remember you saying how much you like the Flowerless chocolate cake. Huh? My watch must be slow. Where are they Just closed early. I mean, one of the owners was just accused of murder yesterday. Should have had dessert at the restaurant, Eva with no dessert.

I had a really lovely time. Yeah, it was our second first date. I wanted this one to be perfect. It was.

What are you up to now? Jen? What are you doing in Jakarta? Why don’t you return my calls?

So by the time you called me back, this is not just sister. Oh my God. Ro what the hell are you doing with my sister’s phone? I received your message warning me about Jin Van Only. It came too late.

Sorry, did you hear what I said? I have to tell you something. Sorry. I thought I saw a roach. I am getting paranoid

I,

something’s happened, hasn’t it? Something bad, something terrible, and I did it on an A P B out on a late model four door sedan drivers. A woman named Ava Vitali at 10 20 is a Salem airfield field. Victim’s name is Susan Banks. She might still be a passenger in the car, so I want all units to proceed with caution.

Ava Vitali is considered armed and extremely dangerous.

EJ is right behind you and seeing as he used to drive race cars, it’s only a matter of time before he catches up to. What’s the plan when he does

Eva? You’ve got no place to go now, but prison. Oh, better. Yes. Hell, and once I catch up with you, I get to decide what are you gonna do? You gonna drive all the way to Seattle. The Damaris will hunt you to the ends of the earth. You know that, just shut up. Okay. Shut up. I am trying to think. I didn’t say anything.

Oh, you know what? I, I, I, I’ll, I’ll stay. Shut up. But, um, just please, please Ms. Stanley, please just keep your eyes in descriptive. Romine, it would be horrible if we get to an accident. I be. Ej, look at you. You’re scared. EJ is the one who should be shaking in the boots, but you let him get the upper hand and now he’s chasing you.

You’re running away. Rule number one, vitals don’t run. You should have shot that son of a bitch when you had the chance. I am not scared. You’re crying like a baby because I lost everything, not everyth. Yeah, it’s true that Steve didn’t want you, Rafe didn’t want you. Jake Stead trip abandoned you to move across the country, but you, you still have me, mother.

I’m still here, and we can be together forever, just like I always wanted. And you can still win this. You can still hurt ej. You know what you have to do?

I don’t know. What the hell is he doing?

Oh my God. No, no, no, no, no.

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

Do you still want dessert? Maybe later. I am so glad I ran into you guys. She doesn’t mean that. No, really? I uh, just got my wedding invites. See, I wasn’t lying when I told you they were ready. Aren’t they great? The paper is Heritage Talk. They are lovely. And, uh, very heavy. You know, you can almost slit someone’s throat with these, well, hang on to them.

I’m gonna save me some time.

You want me at your wedding? Oh yeah. I wouldn’t want you to miss a celebration.

You still haven’t told me why. You have my sister’s phone. I saw all the calls you made to. You were right to be worried. She was here on a fishing expedition. What happened? Oh, she pretended that you’d sent her to me. She also pretended to know you’d used me to eliminate Stefan’s feelings for Gabby, but you told her she was wrong.

Unfortunately, I hadn’t received your warning yet. She knows. Damn. Where is she now at the moment? She’s somewhat, uh, indisposed.

You’re starting to scare me. Just tell me what you’ve done and we can figure out a way to handle it. I promise Sarah that I was a changed man, that her love changed me, but she finds out what I. She’ll never forgive me. She’ll see me. For what? I really,

I broke my word to you. I don’t understand. What do you mean you don’t have to do this? I’m not gonna tell. I promise. I promise I crossed my heart enough to. You know, the rest

hate.

I quit.

Bob,

I hope you two haven’t made New Year’s Eve plans because, well, if you have canceled them, cuz this party’s gonna be better than anything. You two can dream up. Okay, Gabby, listen actually, uh, Steph and I are probably gonna be out of town on New Year’s Eve. We were thinking of going someplace warm. Miami maybe.

Aren’t you? You’re working for Lee now, right? I mean that’s, that was a big step for you. No, I’m pretty sure Lee would want you at his wedding. I mean, for your sake. I hope you haven’t bought airline tickets. No. Cavi. We have not purchased any airline tickets. You can take this back and give it 20 of your friends because we’re not gonna need it.

Chloe is gonna be my plus one. How nice. It is nice when fate steps in and brings the right people together. Don’t you think

you have my sister in restraints and Johnny too? Two. Your sister and Mr. Damara arrived. But I didn’t know that. She engaged me in conversation inside the lab. Young Damara was hiding in the hallway and recording our conversation. I wouldn’t have known this was happening, but my equipment caused her microphone to feed back.

Surely. Now you understand that I had to detain them. How did she get onto this? H? How did Johnny get involved? All I know is what sound’s. Uh, destroying it will be simple enough, but that still leaves you with a problem. How to solve my sister and Johnny from going straight to Gabby? Once they get back to Sam, telling her everything.

Lucky for you. I haven’t been idle since you and EJ sent me to a Jakarta. I’ve been working on a robotics program that’s quite exciting. But to complete it, I require a set of human vocal chords. Two would be even better.

Are you talking about removing their vocal chords? Uh, it’s possible now, now you listen to me. I have a much better idea.

Wendy. Wendy. Wendy, are you awake, Wendy? Getting there. Um, what happened, see, I heard, was feedback from the mic. Yeah. My mouth was coming at me with a needle. Yeah. Yeah. I, uh, I found you, you, you were out cold. And then, uh, and Dr. Strange left, came at me with another needle. We. He spilled his guts. Not totally.

We still don’t know my dad’s involvement. God damn. Why do you have to figure out what we were up to? Because he didn’t get his reputation by being stupid. Yeah. When he comes back, he’s not gonna let us off with a warning, that’s for sure. I don’t think we can count on the local cops to come to the rescue.

We gotta find a way outta.

Yeah, this is Commissioner Ray Fernandez, a Salem pd. I’ve got a kidnapping here, so I thought I’d get the Bureau involved. Right. Yeah. It’s uh, it’s a high profile case. Victim’s name is Susan Banks, mother of ej d. Yeah, right. Those DMIs and the kidnapper is Ava Vitali of the Philadelphia Vitalis. Yeah, right.

I thought you’d be interested Now. Right now my 10 20 is the Salem Air Strip. I came here because e J’s brother told me that EJ was gonna be dropping off the ransom, and uh, well, it looks like things didn’t go as planned and Vitale may have taken off with Ms. Banks. Yeah, I got every one of my man out there looking for ’em right now.

Hold on a second. Yeah, I got one of ’em calling in right now. Yeah. What do you got?

Okay. How bad is it? All right, gimme the exact location and the crash, right? Damnit Eva. Dammit.

You quit your job, but you just started. You said it was such a great opportunity. Yeah, I know. A bit of a shot. I had no choice.

I still don’t understand the job. It just. It wasn’t what I was told it would be. Actually, there’s been a change of plans. I’m gonna go meet EJ and get the money and you’re gonna stay here. Stay here. Why to kill Susan? A boss asked me to do something that I knew was wrong and I thought of you and I. I just couldn’t go through.

Can you hear me? Don’t do it. Get my mother down there a kidnapped her. I know Tony told me David deliberately drove off the road bloody of mine. Get a damn hold to yourself. Okay? The rescue squad is on the way. They have a much better chance of getting your mother than you do. Okay? Look at that cliff.

Don’t see any chance getting down there, so I just stand here and do nothing. My mom is in that closet. Hey, thanks.

You told me that this rednecks company was legit. So what’s with your boss? Why is he asking you to do something dicey? Well, it wasn’t, he was a woman. None of that matters. Now I, it’s just like I said, she made the job had to be something that it wasn’t. I don’t were there anymore. What’d she want you to do?

Ah, I’d just rather not talk about it. I’m just trying to understand this thing that she wanted you to do that you didn’t wanna do. Was it unethical or was it worse than that? Right. Was it like cooking the books or something? Yeah. Yeah. Why that? Huh? That’s the case, and you did the right. And I’m really proud of you.

This is the chance. My mother.

My mother,

you know, we are in luck. I hear the chef is making his famous Creole tonight. Hopefully that will help us forget about our little run in with Gabby. I’m all for it. I just have a question. Okay. Raise your hand, Chloe. Um, why did you say that we wouldn’t dream of missing Gabby and Lee’s? Okay, well you weren’t there, so I don’t expect you to remember, but I certainly will never forget at Maya and Gabby’s wedding,

she played me as soon as we exchanged vows. She turned on me, kicked me right out of the house. So yeah, I can’t wait to see what she has in store for Lee. You think she’s gonna do the same thing to him? I don’t know, but I know she doesn’t love him yet. She’s making a big to-do about the wedding. I can’t wait to find out why.

Before we hang up, I want to know you are clear on what I want.

Mm-hmm. . Mm-hmm. , Justin. So we’re on the same page. Good. When my sister gets back home, she better be empty-handed.

Cubby, I didn’t, uh, hear you. What’s wrong with Wendy?

So you’re both of awake. You feel refreshed after your nap. You better let us go. Me brother will be mad as hell when he finds out what you did to us. Oh, I wouldn’t be so sure about that. What are you gonna do? Keep us strapped to these gurneys forever. I don’t take it too well when people come to me under false pretenses and then secretly record my conversation, oh yeah, that must really bother an honorable guy like yourself.

That recording you made. Four kitty. No one will ever get to hear it.

I demand to speak to my brother. Fred, you just listened. He and I had a very fruitful chat on your phone. Fruitful how he gave me strict orders to ensure that the two of you never tell anyone what you heard here today.

This will take a few seconds, so sit tight. Hmm. And I’d like to have a choice.

Thank you. Yeah. So you think Gabby doesn’t love Lee? Why? I don’t think Gabby is capable of loving anybody in case she’s too obsessed with money and. Why do you think she ended up with Lee? Hmm. Lee’s father is chairman of the board and can help her climb back on top of Tamara. The only question is, why didn’t Gabby just go for the old man himself?

He’s married. When has that ever stopped? Gabby cab? I dunno. I guess she figured maybe Lee would be more helpful and clawing her way back to the top. I don’t. And why is she so anxious to have you at her wedding? I don’t know. Well, I think I do. I don’t think it has anything to do with money or power. It has to do with you.

That was the head of the maintenance crew for the company Jet. You know how we suspected Wendy was playing hooky from work? Yeah. Well, she did it in style. She and Johnny commandeered the jet and took off for Indonesia. We Why? What’s in Indonesia? I could tell you if she would return my calls. And you have no idea why they went?

No, she and I were whenever that close. Right. So why is it that you were telling on the phone whoever that was, They needed to make sure Wendy was gonna come back empty handed. What are your faces gonna bring back?

So, Dr. Wolf, can I ask you something you can ask? I can’t guarantee an answer that will satisfy you. I’m trying to figure you out. Do you have like a soul feelings? Just anything good. Get to me. What do you mean a beautiful sunset? A great sushi Miles Davis. What are you trying to say? We’re here because of Gabby, because we think she got a rat deal from my brother, hey, and my dad.

Why would you come so far and put yourself in Graved danger for a personal means nothing to you? Because what happened to her is wrong. She just found out that Stephan is alive. He was the love of her life. Good. Now, Stephan wants nothing to do with. Hasn’t there ever been someone in your life meant everything to you?

Hey, maybe, maybe love is the farthest thing from your brain right now, right? But what if it just happens anyway? He was meant to be till someone like you screws it up. Doesn’t it scare you just a little bit? He’s messing with the natural order of things. It does, doesn’t it? Here’s one way you can make things right.

Just let us go. Just let us go and we’ll let Gabby know the truth. I let Gabby knows the truth. Little fools, she does know the truth. Only she’s forgotten. It sinks to this. You wanna find it just as effective on your memories of today, what’s in that needle? A handy little mixture. I invented, I call it c r s 17.

What does CS stand? Can’t remember stuff. . So you two will return to Salem believing that you came here for nothing. Is that so horrible?

There is one thing I’m curious about. Why did you say that quitting your job was such a terrible thing, Liz, isn’t it? You know how much I’ve wanted to find a good paying job, and I, I really thought I’d got it sorted and I was gonna be able to take care of you, killing me to walk away from that job. I feel like I’ve let you down.

Again, I know that you wanna be the provider, but it means more to me that you wanna make an honest living. You, you found out that this job wasn’t on the up and up and you quit. I admire that. Oh, don’t say that. No, I do. I love you so much. Oh God, Sarah, I love you. Mm-hmm. so much. I dunno what I do.

I need a blank.

It’s gonna freeze. Death. The fire’s almost out.

Freeze’s my mother. I’m sorry sir. No one could have survived that blast.

Even the most ambitious people are capable of falling in love, okay? Be that as it may, you know how many times I’ve told Gabby there is no chance for her and me. She doesn’t seem like the type to take no for an answer because that’s stubbornness. It’s all based in green for her, it’s not love. I saw her face after she saw us kissing and she was upset.

Right? So why would she react by waving her wedding invitation in her faces? I don’t know. But I’m sure she wish she wouldn’t have done that. . She is going to regret it even more the day of her wedding. You and I sitting front and center holding hands, we get it. Why do you wanna hurt?

No, I, I don’t wanna, uh, no, it’s not about that. I, I wanna get through to her. That’s it. I don’t care about Gabby enough to wanna hurt her, and I don’t care who she marries. Hey. I only care about you

saying I want Wendy to come back empty handed. That was just a figure of speech. I don’t want her shopping for souvenirs. I won’t her back in St. Lu tomorrow. Why though? I need people. I can count on not, not flighty girls who take off on a whim with a guy and, and go halfway around the world. What are you gonna do when she gets back?

Fire her on, give them a break. I mean, she and are actually kind of cute together. Cute. How? Oh, I ran into them in this square a couple days ago. I dunno. There was this energy between the two of them and I was curious, so I asked Johnny about it and he admitted that he has a crush on your little sister.

Oh, well. So let him take his fresh out to dinner. Not to Indonesia on his daddy’s jet. Johnny Damara is a spoiled little rat. No, someone’s a little angry. You’re angry. Yeah. I’m really angry. So what if Johnny took Wendy on a romantic getaway that was a little over the top? Just let them enjoy it.

Who wants to go first? Seems to be up to me. Mi mind catch, elaborate

Bear my manner. Ladies first, of course,

Oh, lucky for me. You have very good veins. Please don’t do this. Come, don’t say anything. You should have thought as the consequences before you lied your way into my lab. You’re going to feel a little pinched now. I forget your hands offer.

Well, I do know one talent that can make you a millionaire. If I was willing to share, which I’m not, stop it.

my time at rednecks might be behind me. But I did learn one thing I need to think about more than just money. When I’m looking for a job, I’m gonna be proud of the way I make my living.

Great job is out there. You’ll find it. It might be a bit tricky explaining why I can’t ask my old boss for a reference though. Yeah, but people leave jobs on bad terms all the time. It doesn’t mean that you have bad people, you’ll survive. I don’t wanna deal with that women anymore. So Do you want the shower first?

No, you go, I’ll be waiting for you. That sound to that

I’m sorry.

I wish the hell this hadn’t happened.

No reason to stay here though. Good morning. You can leave your car. I’ll have an officer take it to your place. You can ride with me down the headquarters. Headquarters. Why? I’m gonna need your statement ej about what?

Tony told me that Ava had kidnapped your mom, but he didn’t know the rest, so I’m gonna need that from you. Why he’s not gonna bring my mother back? Ej. Ava did this. I wanna make sure that we get it all into public record. I am not gonna relive this nightmare. For the sake of public record,

I’m going home. AJ

ej.

I am touched that you are standing up for my sister, but would you be so generous if you were still c e o and your new employee went for a joy ride on the company Jet? Okay, look, just think about it. What’s more important? Some wasted jet fuel or true love?

Gabby Hernandez, I do believe you’re an old softie. Hey, watch her. You’re calling old buddy.

All right. You’ve convinced me you don’t have to be consequences. She skipped out on work. Okay. Well just tell her that she’s crowned for a week. I promise not to overreact after all. No real harm was done.

You were great. You were so bad at yourself.

Yes, I promised you desserts. Uh, that’s okay. I’m over it. Me too. Although I hate to think we came back here for no reason.

Uh, I’m moving too fast on I. You’re still not over Brady? No, I’m not honestly, but I do wanna move on with my life. I mean, he moved Kristen into his house five seconds after we broke up, so to hell with both of them. Hmm. Well, if there’s anything I can do to help facilitate that transition,

Hi. This is turning out to be one of the best nights I’ve had in a long time.

oh my God. Ej, what happened?

Ej? Hey, are you okay? Ej, were you in an accident? No. Thought my mother was, she’s dead.

Oh, I love these. They look expensive as hell, but they’re still. That’s what I thought. Look, thought the box was already opened. Oh, I’m sorry. I couldn’t wait to take a peek. And actually I’m gonna, I’m gonna keep this one for myself as a reminder that this is actually happening. That it’s real. Oh, it’s real.

All right. But it’s December 31st, midnight. We’ll be a married couple. Yeah. Bringing in the New Year’s husband in life. I can’t wait

versus Lewis English. Dude, what do you think you’re doing? But you may have been able to destroy our recording, but uh, we can still undo everything that you did. And once we get back to. That’s exactly what we’re gonna do. I am going to tell Gabby personally what you did to step’s mind, and she is gonna come after you with more than a scalpel.

You ready to roll? Yep. Can leave me like this? Stop. While you’re a brilliant scientist, I’m sure you can figure your way out of it. Nice. Yeah.

What are you watching? Uh, news bulletin about Susan Banks’s kidnapping. Did they say who did it? Same thing that Bonnie told me. Some guy in a clown mask.

Then what was. The bulletin. Did Susan tell him who did it? Susan couldn’t say anything. She’s dead.

No more. Bruce? No. Want you to?

She’s

gone. It’s all my fault.

 Hey mom. Oh, Sarah honey. I’m so sorry I had to rush out to work. I missed your anniversary party, so I just, I wanted to drop this off. Oh, whoa. That was so sweet. But it was, um, last minute. So the frame is empty , but it is steel for your 11th. And I thought if you took a photo at the party last night, or maybe we could take one tonight, that, that would be lovely.

You don’t like it? No, no, no, no. It’s not that. What, what’s wrong? It’s, you know, it’s Bonnie Justin. He’s terribly worried about her, and so am I.

What the, oh my God. Buddy buddy, sweetheart, Justin. Okay, I praying Brandon here. You sweetheart. Sweetheart, who did this to you? The evilest clown you’ve ever seen.

Where are we? And when are we gonna get there? And most importantly, when the heck are you gonna let me go? What? With all the questions. Aren’t you supposed to be psychic? You know what? It doesn’t work that way, Uhuh. It’s not like I’m some side show Fortune Taylor from Peach Six. And you know what? It doesn’t take a psychic to see that you are one Sorry.

Excuse for a clap. Oh yeah. How’s that? You’re not very whimsical. You’re just rude. Rude, rude. And you’re kind of boring. Oh, well, I’d prefer you to be the boring kind of a captive. So why don’t we try that for a change. What do you say? Like I said, rude. Who’s ever rude is a rude clown. Why don’t you just sit back?

And be quiet so we can enjoy the ride in silence.

Alice, rusty, this has not been too much for her, for all of us really, but I’m relieved that you and Eva have made an agreement. I just want all of this to be over. As much as it pains me, I have every intention in doing whatever that evil woman wants, whatever it takes to ensure the safe return of my mother.

Come on mom. You know you want to kill her? Kill Susan Banks. That is not the deal I made with EJ the deal. Since when is EJ honored to deal with you? He kidnapped your son. He thinks he can win this. You need to make him lose. I just upped the ransom. He is about to lose 30 million. You are Ava Vitali. This isn’t about the money EJ disrespected you and we both know there is one way to answer for that.

He needs to suffer. You need to make him suffer. We both know how this ends. True revenge. The mother has to.

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

Honestly is isn’t what I expected a clown car to look like. I mean, it’s roomy in the inside, but I mean, it didn’t seem all small on the outside or not very clown like either clown French, can you cram in here, Mr. Griffin? Y you who I supposed to. It means you never shut up and it’s driving me crazy. What happens to silence?

Well, I don’t like silence, so either you start answering the questions or I’m gonna start to sing Elvis’s back headlock in chronological order. All right. All right. You know what, Mr. Co, I’m gonna set the scene for you. It was year 1953 and it was a hot blistering August day in Man Fish when a handsome young man walks right into the Do On Records and he away.

Hi,

this is not a real clown car. Okay? Don’t mind. It’s a. And I don’t know how many clowns I can cram in here cause I don’t have any clown friends. You happy now? No. And you showed darn angry. I’m angry. I’m just frustrated on the club. Mr. Clown,

how about I ask you a question? Okay. Shoot. Wait, don’t shoot. Ask one. Watch with the silly hat.

Huh? Yeah. Mr. Crown are calling me Shelly. Well, you know what, for your information, my haage cold and so when you unti me, I grabbed my hat, my lucky hat. Mind you, I’d my bag. See, I like to be prepared for the weather for misfortunes. Well, doesn’t seem so lucky to me. Given the circumstances. I mean, you know what?

As long as I have this little head on my head, everything’s gonna be alright.

So you don’t have any clown friends soon? Just the clown wife. Don’t start that again. Xander said that Bonnie texted saying she was gonna go visit Mimi, but didn’t say. Right. Um, well, Justin just spoke to Mimi and, uh, it’s clear that the text didn’t come from her mother and that Bonnie never went to Chicago.

Uh, wow. Okay. I understand why you’re all so worried. Where’d she go? Um, . We don’t know. . The last we all knew is that she, Headed out to the garden shed. Okay. Okay. Uh, someone in a clown costume tied you up in here. Yes, he is. So, Creepy. Like the clown clown. That makes you heavy jeebies. Okay. All right, LA So let’s just figure this out.

Uh, Maggie said that you came down here to get some lanterns. Yes. Yes. For her and Victor’s anniversary party to be the centerpieces on the table. Right. So when you got here, this creepy clown, evil bozo was just lying in Wait. No, no. And he wasn’t lying. And wait, he found me here after I found Susan Banks.

Charlie, I don’t think, don’t think. Act, your precious trip could have been killed. Yeah. But he wasn’t. Okay. He’s safe now. And we made a deal and EJ agreed, yeah. To give you lots of money. Great. But since when has it been about that 30 million is a big payday. Sure. But to destroy a man, to crush his soul, that is how you become somebody.

The Vitali that you used to be, the Vitali that you’re destined to be. Again, show EJ what happens when you mess with a Vitali, not just any vital mom. Ava Vitali put him in his place. The best way to do that. Put his mother in this place.

I spoke to my banker. And the necessary funds are in place. I was under the impression that this was going to be an electronic transaction. It is. There’s just one more thing I need to deal with

over

Susan May be insufferable, but she’s innocent. She’s done nothing wrong, which is why her death will hurt EJ even more, and you’ll get the payback you deserve. Awful, less facing. Susan might be innocent, but she is annoying as hell. Insufferable, like you said, EJ will be devastated, but the rest of the world, they will breathe a sigh of relief when she finally.

I know you want me to shut up and I know I can be a bit annoying, but I do think that I deserve to know where we’re going, especially considering you aren’t very forest coming by the lash location. How’s that? Uh huh uh, I mean, you told me that we were in a soundproof bunker, some undisclosed NoCal, when really we were in old stinky victor’s old, stinky garden shit.

And I, I, I don’t mean to sound on great bull scenes that you haven’t killed me at all, but don’t you think this is getting a little boring, this kid laughing stuff? Well, You and I are on the same page when it comes to that.

I think I might be even more ready for this to be over than you are. And since you asked somewhat nicely, I guess you do deserve an answer. I do, gee, you’re gonna tell me where we’re going? Yeah. I’m taking you home.

Ava just texted me the location she wants to meet at the airstrip in 30 minutes. Do you really think that that firearm is necessary? I’m sure there’s been more than one poor soul who’s made the fatal misstep of meeting up with Ava. Vital, unarmed. If I left this gun here, it would be a grave mistake, and possibly my last and this cloud had Susan in here too.

Oh, yes. I walked right into this. And this clown is trying to get EJ to pay for the return of his mother. He had Susan all trust up like a Thanksgiving Turkey, same as me, except obviously he didn’t think it was worth as much. So where’s Susan now? Clown God only knows where right before you two burst. I’m sorry.

So Justin and Alex are down at the shed. Yeah, they’re just trying to figure out where Bonnie disappeared to. Well, we all know Bonnie can be a little scattered. Yeah. But she didn’t just get lost on the grounds. I’m sure she’s gonna turn up, I hope. Speaking of which, yes, when I left for work, my husband was here.

So where is Zander now?

I devil himself here, down you.

That didn’t. You’re on the DER grounds, aren’t you?

What the hell are you doing here? Hey, she have to help me. This crazy. He,

he did exactly what I asked him to.

Don’t tell me you’re not in Missy’s clown. Oh God, no. My relationship with this clown is purely profess.

You just think that my grandson Gianni trusted you. I stood up to you for you. Okay, daddy, shame. Shame on you. He’s gonna be so disappointed in you. Oh, how am I ever gonna survive? Now go stand in the corner. Will you do something? Maybe you can. Summon up the spiritual world and top the ear off of some dead damara.

I need to have a word with this clown. Hey, you know what? Since you guys are gonna be talking about me and my welfare, hopefully, um, I think I should be parted to this conversation. Or not. Okay. I’m just gonna flip over here and see what we have. Oh,

I know you weren’t very bright, but it’s only now that I realize you are a total moron. I told you the place I was keeping Susan being compromised and I had to move her. Who told me you’d let me know when your son was safe? Yes, and I just got word that Steve just rescued. Trip. Great. Then we can finally end this.

Get our money from EJ and offload Money Motor Map.

Actually, there’s been a change of plans. I’m gonna go meet EJ and get the money and you’re gonna stay here. Stay here. Why? To kill Susan.

What are you talking about, Ava? We had a deal. No one gets hurt. No one gets hurt. Oh, well then it’s clear. We have had a little bit of a misunderstanding here because my goal from the very beginning has always been to hurt EJ for what he did. To me, that’s become very clear to me that our only path forward is to take away someone.

He. And that’s what we did. And now the next step of the plan is to trade the person he loves for a vast sum of money. I didn’t sign up for murder money. Money means nothing to ej. He was born with it. He will always have it. He will always get more. You need to take away something that he cannot replace.

He has to pay in.

I knew you had a screw, but now my God, you’ve totally lost it. Come on. Lucky hat, I’m taking you home back to your son. Are you sure about that?

Lord. Lord, I know you.

This is a Demy game. Avery and I have been playing, but I have no doubt that I will bust her because she’s reckless. Her moves are erratic. But that’s what makes her so dangerous. It’s also what makes her fallible. I was hoping I can’t talk you out of this, at least let me come along with a backup. She wants me to come alone at this highly sensitive moment of our negotiations, unwilling to make that compromise.

Tony, as much as I want to end Ava tonight. My mother’s safety is the priority. This gun is a last resort, I assure you.

Hello. physically, you’re all right, but I’m sure this ordeal was very upsetting. I’m just glad it’s over, you know? Oh God. My, my hands are still shaking. Geez. Here’s some kind of meal tea. It’ll help sooth your nerves. Oh, um, I think maybe a. Hello. Island iced tea might work faster for me, though. I will take care of that.

Thank you. Thank you, darling. Okay. Can you, uh, tell us anything more about what happened about this man who took Susan? Honey, how many right now? I’m, I’m, I’m just more interested in drinking than talking. Can we just put this off just for a little bit, please? Uh, no. No, you can’t. Cause as long you wait, more likely you are to forget something.

Something that could save Susan Banks’s life.

Susan beat your captor

boy. How would you do this to me? Why the hell did you do that? You brought Susan here and added me. I just returned the. And now you have no choice but to do what needs to be done.

Ah, will you look at the time? I have a date with EJ at the airstrip. So I’m gonna take your car. I’m gonna go get the money from EJ and tell him the terrible news about his precious mom.

Oh, and if it’s any consolation, Susan, there’s a very nice spot right here between Stefano and Andre. So when your son finds your body, he won’t have fire to go to bury.

Bonnie, do you remember anything else about this clown? Any details could be incredibly helpful. Like I told you and everyone else already, he was wearing a clown mask. No, that he never took off. And a suit like a clown suit? No. A blue business suit like the one you always. Thank you. Looks so. Quit. Uh, you’re not implying.

And then it was Alex. No. Lord, no. How at anyone so sweet and with such a sweet face ever hurt anyone? No. Okay. Just the record. Alex was here with me and Maggie during the time that this clown was down at the shed.

So, uh, you remember any more details? Oh, come on you guys, guys. No, I’m no good at describing people to the cops. I mean, really the last time I did this, I Id the wrong person. Okay. Well then maybe you can think about not just what he looked like, but maybe what he sounds like. Can you describe his voice? He was muffled and kind of strange.

Come on. I, I, I can’t do this. Okay. I, I don’t know what you guys want from me here. Okay? Okay. Okay. Okay. That’s enough. Um, you’ve been through a lot, so can we just finish this up? Okay. Yeah. Right. Uh, Bonnie, if you do remember anything else, anything at all, please let me know. Okay? Thank you.

Hold on. There is something, wait. Even though this guy wore a clown mask, he wasn’t very clown like, what does that mean? Well, first of all, he wasn’t very funny. In fact, he was downright mean and creepy. No, no, no. I mean, if this guy really did work in the circus, there’s no way he’d be a clown because his build, you know, and the way he carried himself, he, he was.

He was more like the strong man, you know?

Hey, Mr. Andrew Clown. I, I mean Mr. Cook, Mr. Clown Cook. Gender. You don’t have to do this. That, that heartless lady with the soul decisive a piece, she doesn’t get to boss you around. Right? I promise you. I promise you, you know what? If you just let me live, you know, live the long life that God intended me to, I promise you.

Look, until I saw that you were involved in any of this, not even my sweet, sweet, sweet.

That’s close enough. Ej,

where’s my mother? I want to see her. Oh, you’ll get what you want after I get what I want, except I think it’s become clear. We have good reason not to trust one. Go hell with your trust. Bj, I want your money. So unless I get an alert very. Very soon that you’ve wired me the $30 million, I’m gonna call my associate and tell him to put that bullet in your mother’s rainless little head.

Nope. Nope. Won’t tell anyone.

I’m sorry, Susan. The stakes are just too. I can’t even trust Ava or Amy. Now she’s just gonna murder me in cold blood. You’re not getting it. Sarah would never understand this and things were just getting back on track. I have to do it for her. No you don’t. Please just no more talking. Let me make this harder for both of us.

Okay? Okay. I’m Spanish, Spanish fan. I’m gonna listen. I wanna listen to you. I promise Sarah that I was a changed man, that her love changed me, but she finds out what I did. She’ll, she’ll never forgive me. She’ll see me for what I really am. Okay, hold on, hold on. For, but you don’t have to be, you don’t have to be that you, you don’t have to do this.

I’m not gonna tell. I promise. I promise I crossed my heart and hope get, you know, the best. Maybe you won’t, but if I don’t do this for my, just how spy tell everyone,

and I cannot lose Sarah against Susan. I just, I can’t

Oh, sorry.

It’s done. Where’s my mother?

Nice dream business with you.

Leaving him with our leasing arrival. Oh, I’ll release her to you. Or should I say I’ll release her body to. No. Yeah, no. Yes, yes. Ej. I’m afraid, and it’s true. Your dear old mommy is dead,

got a shower and help you wash away some of that guilt didn’t. You are wrong.

Well, here we are, father, yet again. We are for one of my brothers to return.

Ah. Like father, like son. Isn’t that right?

I just hope EJ keeps his cool. Where is he?

How did you get him? The door was open. Where the hell is ej?

Wow. Huh? That look on your face. Ej, it is worth more to me than 30 million. Damn you. You thought you could take my sun trip? You could threaten my flesh and blood and then just pay me off. If it’s true, my mother’s dead.

No next.

A night, huh? I’m just glad you’re safe right here next to me. Next to my hero,

five 12.

So EJ is on his way to the airstrip right now to make the exchange? Yes. Well, why the hell didn’t one of you call? Well, he was about to call you when neighbor’s call came in, and at that point the ball was already rolling, so he had no choice but to act. Listen, commissioner, I’d be lying to you if I said I wasn’t worried about my brother.

By giving your own personal experience, I’m sure you understand we’re not dealing with your average kidnapper. The rules don’t seem to apply when you’re. With Ava Vitali.

Go ahead, ej. Kill me. But you and I both know I won. I be and I will gladly go to migrate. Known that. Come on.

Before you, if you make it a quick. Oh, okay. I don’t mean to be difficult, but I don’t know any quick prayers. I’m, I’m a, I’m a God-fearing Bible or something, Christian, you see. And I met my sister, my sister Mary Moore around. I mean, she’s the one who’s quick with the first Oh, okay, okay. Okay. I’ll, I’ll come up with something.

Um, oh God. God. Just stomach prayers so little time. I just, oh, oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. I got one. I got one. Okay. And then I wanna say, Not ready.

Oh Jesus, half mercy. Poor, poor man’s soul. A father,

just forgive him. He knows not what he’s done.

I’m ready you.

I can’t do this. I can’t shoot you. Oh, oh. Will Right. I against my prayers for my life of an answer, even though I didn’t have a chance to say it. Oh, okay. You know what? Let’s, um, what do we do next? I mean, I, there, there, there, there is a, um, supply room at the Brady Pub that, um, it’s great for Holden Camp at your store.

Covered before I changed my mind. She Oh, oh, oh, okay. Okay. You know I,

she’s telling the whole world what I did. Right.

I laughing, kicking through the grace of God. You gotta favor right now that thou kill. Can we get, I mean, how many times one night can a girl get a gun? Don’t worry, honey, it’s gonna be the last time. Unless EJ puts his gun. Now.

Okay. Susan Uhuh, how about you and me? Take Oh, is that what you wanna do, ej, quit the gun down now. Still good? Still good.

Good you.

You are not going to believe what happened. Someone kidnapped Susan Banks and of all places was holding her in the Kiya shed. And Bonnie didn’t go to Chicago. She found Susan and the kidnapper grabbed her too, but don’t worry because Bonnie’s okay. But he took off with Susan. God knows where. Oh, and this is the weirdest.

The kidnapper was wearing a blue suit. Anne, are you ready for this? A clown mask. Isn’t that crazy?

And that bozo still has Susan,

Sarah, I’m so sorry for this. I have to tell you something.

It’s official nerves are dulled . Well, I’m glad, but mine aren’t. When I find this clown, he’s gonna be very sorry that he ever laid a finger on my wife. Honey. Honey, I’m okay. No really. Honestly, right now I am just worried about Susan. No, I know she seems like a tough old bird, but she was really scared Rachel Finder and he’ll, uh, bring her home safe.

I hope you’re right. I hope you’re right.

Damn.

Oh my God. Here’s a tip, Susan. Don’t startle the person with the gun. Well, I’m sure, I’m sure, but I, I, Richard realized that I lost my lucky hair. We have to go back. Right now. Freaking kidding. Here’s another bit of advice for you. Keep your mouth shut. Are you gonna lose your unlucky head too?

I’m coming. Mother

is right behind you. And seeing as he used to drive race cars, it’s only a matter of time before he catches up to you. What’s the plan when he does

Eva? You’ve got no place to go now, but prison. No better yet. Hell, and once I catch up with you, I get to decide what are you gonna do? You’re gonna drive all the way to Seattle. The Demaris will hunt you to the ends of the earth. You know that? Just shut up. Okay, shut up. I am trying to think. I didn’t say anything.

Oh, you know what? I, I, I, I, I’ll stay, shut up. But, um, just please, please miss down. Please just keep your eyes in descriptive road. I mean, it would be horrible if we get into an accidental, be here. Tell ej, look at you. You’re scared. EJ is the one who should be shaking in the boots, but you let him get the upper hand, and now he’s chasing you.

You’re running away. Rule number one, vitals don’t run. You should have shot that son of a bitch when you had the chance. I am not scared. You’re crying like a baby because I lost everything, not everything. Yeah. It’s true that Steve didn’t want you, Ray didn’t want you, Jake dead trip abandoned you to move across the country.

But you, you still have me mother. I’m still. And we can be together forever, just like I always wanted. And you can still win this. You can still hurt ej. You know what you have to do.

I know. What the hell is she doing?

Come on one. I’m in heels and you walk so fast. I know, but Sweet Pits is about to close. I remember you saying how much you liked a Flowerless chocolate cake. Huh? My watch must be slow or they just closed early. I mean, one of the owners was just accused of murder yesterday. I should have had dessert at the restaurant even with no dessert.

I had a really lovely time. Yeah, it was our second first date. I wanted this one to be perfect. It was.

What are you up to now? Jen? What are you doing in Jakarta? Why don’t you return my calls?

It’s about the time you called me back. This is not just sister. Oh my God. Ro, what the hell are you doing with my sister’s phone? I received your message warning me about Jin Van Only. It came too late.

Sorry, did you hear what I said? I have to tell you something. Sorry. I thought I saw a roach. I am getting paranoid

I

Something’s happened. Hasn’t it

something bad? Something’s hurt,

and I did it on an A P B out on a late model four door sedan drivers, a woman named Ava Vitali Vitality. A 10 20 is a Salem Air. Victim’s name is Susan Banks. She might still be a passenger in the car, so I want all units to proceed with caution. Ava Vitali is considered armed and extremely dangerous.

EJ is right behind you and seeing as he used to drive race cars. It’s only a matter of time before he catches up to you. What’s the plan when he does

Eva? You’ve got no place to go now, but prison. No. Better? Yes. Hell, and once I catch up with you, I get to decide what are you gonna do? You’re gonna drive all the way to Seattle. The Damaris will hunt you to the ends of the earth. You know that? Just shut up. Okay, shut up. I am trying to think. I didn’t say anything.

Oh, you know what I.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 I don’t think I’ve seen a smile like that since 12 year old Alex discovered the Sports Illustrated swimsuit.

You’re home. Yes. Live and in person. Oh, good to see you. Good see you. How is the visit with the twins? Arizona was great and warm. Good. Joseph and Vic send their love really well actually , they, uh, said to tell you that they didn’t miss you at all. But I think that’s their way of sending love . I’ll give ’em a call.

Now I’d like to think that my return was responsible for that big grin, but I have a feeling it had something to do with a woman, not just any woman. Dad, I shared my first kiss with the woman of my dreams. Wow. I can’t wait to hear about it, but first I need to track down my dream. Girl. Where’s Bunny? How how?

We’re down here. We get up by the joke. Keep it down. I removed your gag so you could eat, not violate the noise ordinance. Well, I’m an overachiever. I could chew gum and walk at the same time too. Why didn’t you And time me so I can show you. You’ll be out of here soon enough. And two, then you need to eat something.

Why would I eat anything you gave me? You, Lisa, with fertilizer. Why would I poison you? I don’t know. Why would you wear a clown mask and terrorize people like a. Talk to your pal Susan. She resisted it first, but she’s been eating. Nothing terrible happened to her. You’ll come around eventually. Eventually.

What do you mean by that? How long are you gonna keep us in this hell hole? Until EJ Dara pays his mother’s ransom.

Where the hell is an neighbor calling? You realize this all could have been resolved by now if you simply paid the ransom. If you’re assuming that Ava Vitale would make good on her promise to let my mother go, well, all she wanted was money, and who’s to say that once you got the 20 million, she wouldn’t ask for more.

We cannot negotiate with terrorists. But haven’t you yourself become one by kidnapping the woman’s son? Ava needed to learn how far I would go to get my mother back. And how’s your brilliant plan working out now? Because from what I see, it looks like a good old fashioned standoff.

I admit. I overestimated Ava’s human. But she knows I have trip and she knows, I mean business. I mean, what kind of a woman would gamble with the life of her only living son, A woman who’s up against a man who’s willing to gamble with his mothers?

It hasn’t. Steve called, maybe he hasn’t found troop yet. There’s nothing to report. Or maybe the rescue went south. Maybe Steve busted in all cowboy style only to find trip’s, lifeless body, and now he’s afraid to call you. Don’t worry, mom, even if Steve can’t save your precious trip, you still have me.

Always.

What can I get ya? Shot of bourbon.

Anything else? Yeah,

the location of this kid.

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

Oh am sorry to report dad, that Bonnie is not home. Oh. Could you go out? Uh, maybe on a magnificent mile. Come again. Aunt Maggie told me last night that Bonnie went to go see her daughter Mimi in Chicago. Really? Yeah. Apparently there was some kind of an emergency. She was supposed to set up an anniversary dinner for Aunt Maggie and Uncle Victor.

Then she just took off. That’s odd. What she didn’t tell you. Not a word. Which is not like Bonnie at all. What’s taking your son so long to pay up? You two are on good terms, right? Well I know he loves you, but he sure has taken his sweet time forking over the ransom. Wait. You can understand him. It shows you how long you’ve had us tied up together.

I’m working on it. Suz. Hey Pennywise. It’s been fun, but I really need to get the hell outta here. I get it. And since I want this over just as much as you do, since I will not let this situation destroy my life. I will get you out of here. I’m sure Demer will pay up Ben very soon. You better hope so, because my husband is due back today and when he finds out about this, he will not be as casual about my life as EJ is about his mother’s life.

No, I’m sorry. I’m just frustrated. Okay. You’re not eating. I’m leaving. Okay, bozo. It’s only a matter of time before my husband realizes I’m missing. And boy, let me tell you when that happens. Tell me what you ever hear Of the tears of a clown.

A watched phone never rings. Stop. Stop talking. Okay, that’s fine. Not a word. Think of me as a, uh, a silent partner. Are we Sure The patchy is up to the whole trip Rescue. Steve will come through. I trust him. . Oh, that’s amazing. What? Just that you continue to trust somebody that’s put his own family over you again and.

That isn’t what happened, isn’t it? No. Then how would you describe it? You don’t know anything. I’ll tell you what I do know, mother, that I am the only one that you have ever been able to really count on. Not Trip, not Jake Damara and sure as hell, not Steve Johnson.

Sorry. Don’t recognize him. You sure? Look again, I. Look, we get a lot of people coming in and outta here all the time. What’s this all about anyway? Someone snatched this kid from his apartment. We have reason to believe that whoever took him frequents this establishment. Are you a cop? You see me flashing the badge?

Well, you never can be too careful these days. I hear that. So view ain’t five. Oh. And why are you so interested in some punk kid who went missing? It’s not me who’s interested. It’s my boss. Yeah. And who’s your boss? I am.

And who the hell is this? Hey, you don’t talk to the boss that way. Oh, okay. And who is this? Go ahead. Tell him. You never heard of the vitals, the Vitali Grand family. Well, sure. They. Run Philly since the time of prohibition. Oh, you’re damn right. We have, we, yeah, the vitals run Philly, and I run the vitals.

This is my boss, Hava Vital, and this kid, this picture right here, that’s my son and I want him back. Safe and San, or somebody’s heading for a slumber party with the fish down in Lake Washington,

just leave me alone. Go away.

Who are you talking to? Who’s coming on, Nick? Nothing. I just, um, I thought I saw a rat. What the hell are you doing here? Who’s watching? Susan? Susan’s fine. Don’t worry about her. The DJ pay the Ranson. Not yet. Why the hell not? This is supposed to be a quick job. It’s, we’re already on day two. It’s taking so long.

He’s got my kid. Okay.

Something to take the edge off. Thank you. And how you’re under a great deal of pressure. I don’t mean to be judgmental about this. No. Don’t you know I care about Susan. You think I’m not worried about my mother. Of course you are. Which is, I’m concerned that you’re allowing your pride in your stubbornness to influence your decision making.

That’s not what this is about. It seems like you’re trying to teach Ava a lesson. Why wouldn’t I? That woman made our family a target. You know, the quickest way of ever coming this debacle is to let the boy go. I’d be giving up all my leverage over Ava. Is that what you’d have me do? Surrender and trust that woman not to hurt my mother.

Am I interrupting?

Hi, honey, it’s me. Um, I just got back from Arizona. Alex told me that you’re visiting Mimi. I hope everything’s okay. Uh, can you gimme a call when you get this? I wanna make sure that, uh, everything’s all right. Love you. I’m sure everything is fine. Dad. Something was wrong. She. Brian? Yeah, yeah, of course. You know what the emergency is?

Probably some new toy that her granddaughter wants. She’s probably scouring every toy store in Chicago as we speak.

I will never understand rich people. I mean, come on, EJ Deira has more money than God and Elon Musk put. Why won’t the cheap son of a bitch pay the grandson? Doesn’t he even care about his mama? Of course he cares about his mama and just, who are you calling? The son of a female dog, Missy. Susan? Yes. That’s my name, sweetheart.

Don’t wear it out.

So instead of paying you around some EJ kidnap trick, I knew I shouldn’t have trusted that bastard. Ah, that’s it. We have to call the whole thing off and let Susan go before someone gets hurt. How do you know if we let Susan go that EJ won’t still do something to trip? Hmm mm-hmm. No. I cannot risk it. And besides, if EJ doesn’t pay Susan’s ransom, then you don’t get paid either.

So how was the money? I don’t want Susan’s or trips blood on my hands. Oh, since when did you grow a conscience? See Sarah. Okay. Since I married someone who believes me, I’m bad enough. I kidnap Susan For you, I mean, someone ends up dead, no one’s gonna die. How do you know? Because I, look, I can’t go into detail.

Okay. But I’ve got a plan in Motion to rescue. No offense saver, but that doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence. It’s gonna work. Okay. Trust me. Trust you. Stay the course. Okay, go back to Susan and wait to hear from me. I dunno what you’re asking of me. Really? How hard is it to babysit one woman? That’s just, it’s so long as just one woman.

I won’t have you talk in that trash about my Elvis. What In the multiverse of madness is going on. I’m hearing your thoughts. Yes, sweetheart. And I’m hearing yours. Some of them are downright filthy, by the way. Like that fantasy you were having about Mr. Justin Kiya is dressed as a fireman, rescued you from a Burnham building and that big old hose mouth got like, Stop.

What? Stop getting inside my brain. Where you in such a cranky pants? You gotta admit it’s pretty cool. I have you known my powers helped those sweet star crossed lovers, Ben and Sierra West on several occasions. You gotten their house. Mm. Okay, now that sounds like fun. Hardly. First time Sherra was kidnapped and presumed dead.

And then that main Nash deal, Satan possessed EL Horton and kidnapped Sherra. Oh, oh oh. And then there was this other time, okay, okay. I don’t need a Supernatural soap Opera Digest recap. Sorry, that was not nice. Hey, it’s not like you can control all the thoughts in your head, right? You were just letting your fear do the talking thinking.

Aren’t you scared? Hmm. You know, my pastor likes to say faith is the enemy of, and I have faith that my Elvis will save us. Just like the king. Nothing means more to that boy than his mama. Oh, um, I didn’t see you come in , obviously. We were just discussing Oh, I knew exactly what you were talking about, ej and frankly, I’m shocked and I I can explain.

Tony, I told you I was not going to retaliate against Susan. Did you not tell your brother? Oh, man. Yeah. Oh, of course I did. Well, apparently you didn’t get through. Because I just heard EJ tell you that, that he can’t trust me not to get revenge on Susan for breaking my crystal heart. That’s what you heard?

Mm-hmm. , but never fear boys. My heart aches no more. Tata, you see ej. Susan is safe. No she isn’t. Hannah.

All right. Whoever took the boss’s kid left one of your match boxes behind in his apartment. Yeah. But like I said, we get a lot of people in and out of this place. Uh, here it’s a kind of establishment that if you want a job done, no questions asked. Unfortunately, for you, I have some questions with all due respect, Ms.

Vitali, but if you’re familiar with our rep, then you would understand. I can’t give you any answers. Is that right? Yeah. Now, if the two of you would, excuse me, I have some paying customers I need to tend. What the hell? What are you doing?

Well, now that I have your undivided attention, tell me where I can find my son or my friend here is gonna make you cry for your mommy.

Who, who would do such a terrible thing to Susan? Ava Vitale. Uh, she’s squeezing AJ for ransom. I forgot to sake. Tony, why don’t you take a full page out, out the intruder, I’m sorry, ej, but I don’t feel right about keeping something of this magnitude from my wife.

Because all of this mess is all your fault. My fault Tony Damara. Why are you doing this? Doing what? Why are you berating your poor brother when that mafia princess has abducted his mother? Well, if you really must know my poor brother in. Has kidnapped ever Vital sun trip,

there’s nothing on. That’s why me and the misses cut the cord. Air it peacock.

Thank God you hurt. Oh. Oh, thank you. No, I’m okay. I’m okay. I’m so damn. Glad to see you too. Ah, yeah. Glad to see you too, buddy. Hey, let’s get you one time. Oh, thank you. What are you guys wearing?

Colossal idiot. How could you let this happen? Huh? Who are you calling? An idiot. You’re the one who told me to kidnap Susan Banks without making sure that your son was safely out of VJ’s reach. Oh, okay. And whose bright idea was it to hold Susan Hostage on their family estate? No one ever goes in that shed.

Well, apparently that’s not true. How is I supposed to know that Bonnie was gonna go down there looking for lanterns of all things? I mean, it’s not, the woman isn’t exactly a, a member of the garden club. Is she? Where was I supposed to bring her anyway? Here to the Amer Crypt. Least it’s private. Yeah, until one of Stefano’s Spawn wants to pay their respects.

Not to mention all the ghosts you believe. That sort of thing. Okay. Look, we both made some decisions that. Really worked out the way we wanted. There’s no reason to point the finger. I mean, this new complication could actually work in our favor. How’d you figure we could ransom Bonnie too? What Victor Kakkis has just as much money as the Damaris do.

No, I couldn’t. I couldn’t do that to my cousin Justin. He’s been good to me and in my family. That makes him kind of a. Huh? Look at you getting all sentimental. I really hope this Dr. Sarah is worth all the trouble. She’s worth everything. How else would I let you talk me into this ridiculous scheme? A scheme that can still pay both of us?

Hey, look, I should be hearing from my associates about rescuing trip very. These associates, friends from your days in Philadelphia, you don’t need to worry about it. Okay? Why don’t you just go back to the shed and make sure that no other family members of yours decide to take up gardening in frigging November?

Honestly, dad, I was starting to think that I didn’t even have a shot with Stephanie. It was like everything I did to be charming, just annoyed this girl, and I’m talking about things that have never, ever, ever failed me. It might I add and then all of a sudden I done. You listening. Oh, what’s that? I thought you wanted to hear about my epic first kiss with Stephanie.

I do. I’m sorry. I just can’t stop thinking about Bonnie. You’re really worried about it. Why didn’t she just tell me? That she was gonna go see Mimi. Maybe she didn’t wanna bother you because she knew you were visiting with the twins. You know what, I have Mimi’s number. Why didn’t I think about that before?

I’ll just give her a call. You can reach her. There you go.

Mimi. Hi, it’s Justin. I’m good. I’m good. How’s. Oh, okay. That’s great. Give her a big hug for me. Okay. Hey, listen, uh, can you do me a favor? Can you, uh, put your mom on the phone?

Oh, I see. So she’s not there and you haven’t heard from her.

Justin should be home from Arizona by now. What time? How the heck should I know a friend, Mr. Clown has my hands tied up. I, I can’t even see the pretty watch. My granddaughter shouldn’t bought me for my last birthday. I wasn’t asking you for the time. Well, you just said what time is it? No, I was thinking, what time is it?

And you, eavesdropped Grain dropped her, whatever.

I didn’t even realize I was listening. Can’t you turn it off? I’m sorry, but you’re driving me bananas. Ooh, bananas. Yeah. Peanut butter. Bananas . Mm, peanut butter. Banana and bacon sandwich. What you doing? Huh? Why are you describing a sandwich? I don’t mean to, you just said banana and it made me think of the king’s favorite peanut butter and banana and bacon sandwich.

Okay. First of all, And secondly, how could you be thinking about food at a time like this? Because you rejected Mr. Clown’s offering and I needed sustenance to fuel my telepathic powers. See, watch my belly is full. I might be able to send a distress message straight into my Elvis’ psyche. You keep hanging your hopes on your boy Susie.

I’m gonna trust that my Prince Charming will come to the rescue.

No, Mimi, I’m sure your mom is just fine. We probably just got our wires crossed. I I will call you as soon as I hear from her. Okay, bye. Bonnie isn’t with Mimi. She hasn’t talked to her in days, so are you sure that Maggie said Bonnie went to Chicago? That I’m positive. Okay. Where are you going to find Maggie So we can figure out where my wife is?

Hi, honey, it’s me. Um, I just got back from Arizona. Alex told me that you’re visiting Mimi. I hope everything’s okay. Uh, can you gimme a call when you get this? I wanna make sure that, uh, everything’s all right. Love you. I’m sorry mate. Never meant for you or Bonnie to get caught up in Ava’s. Hopefully this will be over soon.

Do you seem marvelous? You worried that DJ’s men have already killed trip? Don’t, don’t say that. You know what’s a possibility, right? A guy like ej, he’s not gonna wanna mess to clean up. It’s much cleaner to just get rid of Tripp. Just take his body, drop it in the Puget Sound. Shut up. Shut up. Steven’s gonna save Tripp unless they take him out too.

Oh, don’t. Don’t enough. Please, mom, please, mom, look, I’m not trying to upset you. I just think one of us should be realistic about this. EJ is not some innocent mark. Okay. He, he’s, he’s somebody that thinks that the rules don’t apply to him, and usually he’s right. It is only a matter of time before he finds his mom takes out that buffoon.

Xander. It’s not gonna happen. I’m not sure you really believe that, but look at the bright side. If everyone else is dead, you still have me. Assuming that EJ doesn’t kill you too,

how could you pull. Handsome Dr. Trip Johnson into your blood feud with his maniac of a mother. I didn’t even realize he knew the lad. Oh darling. I developed a debilitating case of carpal tunnel when I was banging out my treatment for the Aamer story, and Dr. Trip treated me and my aching, aching, typing hands.

Mm-hmm. , I don’t remember that. Well, you were away at the time you were with Chad rescuing Abigail and Sarah from Bris Island. You must have been pleased with why they took care of you. Oh, he is a wonderful, that side manner, yes, he’s strong and confident, but tender. He does. Mm-hmm. , bj, why would you want to hurt a decent, wonderful, sexy man like that?

What does sexy got to do with anything? I haven’t hurt him. I cannot believe what I’m hearing. I’m sorry. Did you miss a part where Ava Vitae snatched my mother from this very house? I only went after her son to even mistakes. Well spoken like a true Dera. I am a true Dera. And may I remind you that you are perfectly fine sister-in-law being at Amer when it grants you access to.

A priceless wine cellar. Luxurious trips, 40 Crystal hearts, Gotti. Those privileges come with risk and responsibility. Tony will tell you. Ah, ej, I understand your motives for going after the young lad, Tony, I hadn’t finished yet, but ej, you have to admit, it’s only made matters worse. Susan will come back to us.

But first you’ve gotta let Tripp Johnson go.

I think that we should get you to a hospital. Be checked out. I’m fine. You sure don’t. I look fine. You look good to me, but I’m not the expert. Sweetness. Well, he seems good to me. I am. Okay. All right. I, I’m just really hungry. . Well, we can fix. But first

Wiki, wiki, eggs, and bakey. Hey,

tell me why EJ Damara hired you to kidnap my son. I got nothing to say to you. Well, we’ll see what more you have to say to the Seattle Police Department because they’re in route, by the way. And what a shame, huh? I mean, we were just getting to know each other. Someone is gonna want to talk to you right about him.

Steve, did you find my boy? Hey mom. Oh, trip. Trip. Are you okay? I’m fine, I’m fine. Dad and Kayla found me. I’m, I’m safe. Ugh.

Let’s hope they put that piece of garbage away for a long, long time. Yeah. And let’s hope he rolls over on his boss, EJ Damara. I just want to go home. That is a fantastic idea. You’ve had a long couple of days. Yeah. Hey, Did that loser say anything about ej? No, it wasn’t exactly chatty. I mean, what is this all about?

That’s a very good question. EJ already exposed my mom’s take Mary to Jake and forced her to leave Salems. Why? Why would he need to kidnap me? Well, Ava said it was because she defied him and came back to town. It was not like she has any power and why we care so much. That’s what I’d like to find out. Ej, I’m, I’m sure you’re worried about your mother’s safety, but.

Trip is innocent. Hey Jay. I think if you let ever Vital Sun go, I think she’ll see reason and return your mother to you unharmed, assuming I pay her 20 million. Well, at this point I think she wants it to be over. Oh.

Yes. Hello, ej. I thought you’d like to know that my son is safe and sound. Oh, and that degenerate that you hired to take him. He’s cooling his heels in, uh, Seattle jail as we speak. You’re bluffing.

Nope, I sent you a picture. You might wanna check your phone.

Yeah, I figured that. You may not believe me. So I had my son send a selfie to prove that he’s out of danger. Alright, you have your son. I won my mother. Oh, you can have her, but that little stunt that you pulled is gonna cost you an extra 10 million. What? Oh, you heard me? I won 30 million or I put a bullet in Susan’s head.

13 million.

Fine. I’ll pay you whatever you want, but I want to know that my mother is alive and well. I’ll send you proof. Nope, no more pictures. I want to see her in person. No way. Hey, you are this close to getting the biggest payday of your life, but if I don’t see my mother’s face, you won’t get anything. I’ll send you a location.

If you try and double cross me again, it’ll be Susan who will pay.

What did Maggie say? She showed me the text from Bonnie and you know, it’s just like you said, something suddenly came up and she had to go to Chicago to visit. Why would Bonnie send that text if she, if she wasn’t really gonna see her daughter? I don’t know, but I don’t like this. Maggie said that the last time she saw Bonnie, she was headed to the gardening shed to pick up some lanterns.

Lanterns. Yeah. She was gonna use them for decorations for Victor and Maggie’s anniversary dinner and nobody’s seen her since. Not that I know of. What are we waiting for? Let’s go.

What was E j’s endgame here? I mean, what if you weren’t able to find me? That’s another good question. From what I can tell, the guy didn’t plan on killing me. I mean, he was waiting for something. But what I’m the last person to make excuses for EJ d. But he’s no dummy and I’m sure he has a pretty good reason to do something this extreme.

Do you think my mom is lying about why I was kidnapped? No. We don’t know. I don’t bet you any money. Ava did something to provoke him. Bonnie, buddy, are you in here? Come on, Phil. Oh my God.

Oh, ej, for what it’s worth, you’re doing the right things. I’m glad you think so. Well, 30 million is not exactly spare change, but at the end of the day, it’s just money is. Well, what else would it be? You’re getting your mother back. Do you really think that this is over between me and Ava that. Take her money and leave for good.

Why wouldn’t she? Or for starters, because it’s Ava Vitale, she’s not right in the head. I told you that Steve would save your brother. Yay. I’m so relieved. Hmm. And now EJ is gonna have to pay him. I’m gonna be said for life. 30 million richer. I mean, minus Sanders. I mean, what more could I have asked for?

Nothing except, except, except 30 million is nothing to a guy like ej. He’s just gonna hit a couple buttons on his phone and barely know that it’s gone. So, so, and Jay’s gonna be annoyed for a day and then move on, but is that really punishing him for what he did to you for that pain? The humili. Making you grovel, running you out of town, making you hide in a crypt with your dead son.

What are you saying, Charlie? I’m saying if you really want to make EJ pay, we should kill Susan Banks.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

. Oh, hey Brady. Uh, how did your meeting go at Titan? Uh, it was long for, the main takeaway is Alex Kakkis is thrilled with your Bella cover shoot that you did with. He would shut up about the chemistry that the two of you had. He said that it sizzled off the page. He’s so excited. He wants to do a second cover shoot with you.

Oh God. Shoot me now.

I hate you. I know that I hate you more.

Jing Wen logged in from Jakarta. Are you sure? No, I am not questioning the competence of the IT department. I just thank you for the information.

What are you up to, little sister? What’s wrong? It’s your hands freezing. Really? It’s like a hundred degrees in here. Maybe you’re just cold blooded. Maybe you’re getting sick. I’m fine. Okay. Maybe I’m a little nervous. No, Vicky, I’m, I’m sorry. I’m, I’m sorry if I, uh, made you uncomfortable. No, it’s not you, it’s what we’re about to do.

I mean, we really tracked down the mysterious Dr. Rolf more like the unhinged Dr. Rolf. Based on everything he’s done, he’s a really dangerous guy.

Is that what this is? Are we talking about my cold hands or your cold feet? Do you wanna abort the mission?

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

Hello? Chloe, what are you doing here? I work here now What Basic Black is operating out of Dera Enterprises offices now? No, I’m no longer at Basic Black. I was given a promotion to Dera. You gave your girlfriend a promotion. Your fiance did. Lee didn’t tell you

the hell are you doing in Jakarta? Inua. I know you’re not there onto mirror business after spending 36 hours to get here. No, I don’t want to abort the mission. I’m totally committed to this. If Lee’s involved in something shady you, I need to know. I’m glad you still feel that way. I do and I hope against hope that there’s some other reason he sent Dr.

Rothfield that doesn’t have anything to do with the plan to brainwash Stephan. I hate to think that Lee’s capable of something so vi. Well, that’s the difference between us. I know all too well what my father is capable of, but I do hope you’re right. Yeah. Well, whether I am or not, I dunno why I’m so dense, you know?

Pride myself on being tough, right? Having nerves of steel. Look, it’s, it’s completely understandable. Okay? You’re going up against an actual mad scientist with formulas that can warp your mind. It’s a little outta your wheelhouse. Oh, but not yours. Mine too. Yeah. But Wendy, I’ve got your back, I promise.

Okay.

How’s that feel? Yeah, it’s good.

Um, I will get my nerves under control. I know you will got faith in you.

It’s my brother.

Look, uh, like hell no. Uh, excuse me. You could never look like hell. It’s just that, uh, I think you’re wearing the same thing you had on yesterday. Yeah. Well, um, I was here all night. You slept here. Unfortunately, sleep was not involved. Okay. You were here. So where was Holly? Maggie’s They had already planned to sleep over.

Ah, look, I know we’re a little behind. With everything, with with Chloe leaving and with you, dealing with this modeling shoot, but you working yourself to death, it’s not gonna help anyone. You’re gotta take care of yourself. All right. I know Brady, I, I wasn’t working, um, you Ray fight or something. It was more like an uncomfortable conversation.

Mm-hmm. , lemme take a wild guess. It was about,

I know that RA wasn’t thrilled about you doing a shoot with Eric, so if it helps, I can talk Alex into dropping the second cover idea with you, Ray Brady. It wasn’t, it wasn’t about the cover

last night. I. Told Re that Eric and I wanna be together

here. Nicole’s laptop, figured she needed for work. I’ll send the rest of her things over. Nicole’s not here. I haven’t seen her since yesterday. She didn’t stay here last. No she didn’t.

I’m sorry. I don’t want to hear it.

Nicole, in no uncertain terms told me that she’s leaving me for you, but you’re saying that she didn’t stay here last night.

It’s complicated. Ah-huh. Right. I mean, of course it’s gotta be awkward moving your ex-wife in under the same roof as your now ex-girlfriend. Where’s Jada getting kicked out? Jada’s not getting kicked out. Oh no. Well, I can’t imagine that she’d wanna stay anyway. I mean, given the circumstances. Or even that you and Nicole would want her to or am I missing something?

Yeah, you’re missing something. Jada’s pregnant,

huh? Nick Guy. I can’t say that I’m surprised to hear this. You and Eric, you always kind of find a way back to one another. Out Rafe, take it as about as well as you’d expect,

right? I should have never married Rafe in the first place. I know that now, and once I did, I should have never. What, what? I just can’t help feeling that I’m getting exactly what I deserve.

What did you do to deserve a job at Damer hq? I mean, must have been good to overcome 16 negative performance reviews. All of which were written by Kristen, uh, and they were all false. Now that she no longer works here, they have magically disappeared from my file. And when did this all happen? Mm, last week.

Maybe Lee told you and you forgot. No, I don’t forget things. Mm. Especially not ridiculous, horrifying things. Then maybe your fiance’s keeping secrets from you.

Come on Jing One, you’re never away from your phone. You avoiding me for some reason. Let it go to voicemail. Can’t. Lee knows I’m surgically attached to my phone. I’ve already missed a few of his calls. He’s bound to get suspicious. Does he usually call you several times? Controlling big brother much. I mean, maybe there’s a work emergency.

That could be why he keeps calling. Yeah, or maybe he’s onto us, which means there’s not any time to waste. We need to go find Ralph. Come on.

call me as soon as you get this. It’s urgent.

In cute secrets from me, Stefan, you just said he didn’t tell you about Chloe’s. Well, probably because he didn’t think it was worth mentioning. And you know, I understand why you wanna work at Demer. I know. I know you’ve been having a hard time at Basic Black and it must be a relief to get away from Brady now that you’ve broken up.

I have no idea. Oh yes, yes I do. Oh, great. The engraver finally sent the proofs from my wedding invitations, Elliot. Elegant. Right. Oh, that is lovely font. Thank you. Wait a minute.

You getting married New Year’s Eve? Yeah. I mean, what could be better? The whole world throwing a party for us. Champagne. Fireworks. You look a little unsettled. Stephan, what? You have a problem with me getting married so soon?

Rolf, my sister Ngn may try to contact. Not to tell her anything. Not a word. Did I just hear you take Ralph’s name in vain? What’s going on? Is there a problem? Oh yeah, it’s a big one.

Okay, don’t worry. I will be right out here the whole time. Just speak to normal volume. The mic is very sensitive. It’ll pick up everything. You never thought you’d be using your fancy film equipment for something like this? Well, you’d be surprised when I was a kid. I, uh, I wanted to be an FBI agent, even learned a few tricks of the trade from my stepdad, Rafe.

Sounds like you’ve had quite a past. Johnny d and I will tell you all about it when we get home. Wendy S And remember, if you need any backup, any backup at all, just use a secret word black belt. Got it. Okay.

Dr. Ralph, I presume.

Why would you even say that, that you’re, you feel like you’re getting what you. Because I’ve made so many bad choices. Brady, I mean, I cheated on Eric with a man. I detests. I blew up EJ and Sammy’s marriage. I blew up Ray’s relationship with my best friend, well, my best friend at the time. All right, let’s, let’s, let’s look, let’s look at that.

First of all, one would argue that you did Rafe a favor there. Second of all, as far as EJ and Sammy are concerned, uh, they can take most of the credit for their relationship falling apart. Okay? Oh my God. Will you stop trying to make me feel better? I’m no better than Ava. Uh, she’s a mafia princess. She’s a ruthless criminal.

She tried to frame rape. Remember? She tried to send him to prison for God’s sake. Yeah. Well, I broke his heart. I kept telling him that I loved him and I wanted to be with him. You were saying what you believed at the time. You know what, if anything, you , you lied to yourself is what you did. Even so. But at some point when I stopped lying to myself and I knew that I was falling back in love with Eric, I still told Ray that I loved him and wanted to be with him.

And now, now, now what you told Ray, that you and Eric have decided that you want to be together. I mean, look, it’s gonna be tough. Onri Reef’s not the only one. When Eric went to tell Jada the news, She had some news of her own to share.

Jada’s pregnant. She didn’t fame because of low blood sugar. Ah, Obviously you’re the father.

You knocked her up knowing that you are in love with another woman. This conversation, well, does Jayden know that you’re leaving her? Huh? Does this change your plans for the future?

So Jada just found out herself last night after she fainted the doctors ransom tests and, okay, what does that mean? I mean, for you and you and Eric. I don’t know. After Eric told me that Jada was pregnant, I was thrown and so rattled and I just took off and I, I haven’t spoken to him since.

So whatcha gonna do? You gonna sit here and feel sorry for yourself? You gonna drive yourself? I have an idea, maybe you should call Eric and I don’t know, talk to him. Maybe I don’t wanna hear what I know. In my heart he’s gonna say, I mean, you know Eric, he’s such a good guy and he has always wanted a child of his own.

So I’m sure he’s gonna do them right thing

and stay with Gina.

Are you okay? How are you feeling? I’m fine. They only kept me overnight as a precaution. I’m just here to get my stuff. What? What are you talking about? You can’t expect me to stay. Where are you gonna go? I don’t know. Uh, maybe the Salem in or Steven, Kayla can help me find a place. Hey Jay. Jack, do you need hand?

Oh, thanks. I’m fine. No, I’m Can’t be lifting heavy boxes.

You told him.

Oh my God. Where the hell do you get off? Talking about my body to my boss? I’m sorry, I just, just what? Trying to explain why you’re not riding off into the sunset with his wife. You know, don’t let me stop you. You can have Nicole, because I want nothing to do with you ever again.

So there’s no other reason for your sister to be in Jakarta? None whatsoever. She said she was working remotely today. She tried to make it look as though she was logging in from Salem. But our IT department was able to pierce the VPN she created and pin down her actual location. Oh, maybe she’d be playing hooky.

No, Jing. Gwen doesn’t do hooky. She used to email her teachers saying she was too smart to need to follow anybody else’s rules. She’s ended up acing the test anyway. Well, in other circumstances I would admire her. But how did she find out where you stashed Ralph? I have no idea. The only person I told was ej.

But why does she even care about Ralph at all? I mean, let alone to track him down halfway across the world. The only possible reason I can think of is that she somehow suspects what we did to Stephan.

Who the, how are you? I’m Wendy Chen.

Maybe you know me as Lee sister. Jean. What, ah, the technology, what account your reputation precedes you? I was, I’ve heard so much about you. Oh good. I hope, of course, Lee sent me here To personally ensure that you have everything you need.

Oh, this lab is just as beautiful as you said it would be. The facilities are state of the art. I have however, had amassed that event in my food fly colony. Oh dear. So our fresh supplier of your will be much appreciated. I trust you can see more fruit flies. I’ll get right on that. Thank you. I’m surprised you didn’t let me know you were coming.

Oh, I’m sure he sent you an email. You probably just missed it. He was determined to give you a royal welcome. After all, he’s extremely grateful for everything you’ve done for him. Ah, you mean my years of faithful service to the mirror enterprises? Of course. There’s that, of course. As well as,

You know, the way you brainwashed Stephan Damara to fall out of love with Gabby Soly could have her for himself.

Of course, I don’t have a problem with your wedding date. Why would I care when you get married? Well, then why’d you bring it up? I, I don’t, it’s just, I don’t know why you’re getting married. So. Okay. You are a bells and whistles type of person, and that takes time. Then again, impetuous is your middle name.

You’ve always followed your every whim. Mm-hmm. Nope. There is no whim. Okay. I have known Lee for years yet, weeks ago you stood in front of me and told me you loved me and now what? You’re getting married to what? Throw it in my face. You’re lucky. That’s the only thing I threw on your face. Oh, really?

Belligerent much. I was engaged to Lee way before you magically rose from the dead. And I, I’m sorry, but you told me my marriage did not bother you. It doesn’t. It’s.

It’s an important day for me. The first time I stepped foot in Salem, it was New Year’s Eve. No, I know. Unfortunately, I was there the day that Vivian unleashed you onto this town. Think of all the, the pain and suffering. We could have all been spared if you just, Steve, where you came from. Oh, guys good. Uh, Gabby don’t you think you’re being just a little bit harsh?

I do not. Okay. Look, I know you’re feeling some things and maybe rejected, but you’ve moved on. Stuff has moved on. You guys seriously? Stefan’s moved on. You you moved on with With who? With her.

So, so what’s the deal? You, you go trick or treating with Holly and then next you’re a couple. You knew I had feelings for. True. Yeah. Yes. You haven’t stopped reminding me. And, and, and, and you, uh, you work very fast, don’t you? I mean, you’ve been broken up with Brady for what, like five minutes and Brady just moved Kristen into his house.

Really? Really. So why shouldn’t Chloe be able to move on with her life? No reason at all, I suppose. And, and, and next you’re gonna tell me that, uh, your wedding date is at Christmas. Now, uh, see, Stephan and I we’re taking things slowly. Oh. But not too slowly. Right. Good for you. Yep. Good for you. Why don’t you tell me where you register?

I’ll buy you steak knives. I don’t know what’s taking Lisa Long. I’m gonna go find him.

Thought she’d never leave.

Jayden, can we at least talk? There’s nothing to talk about. You want to be with Nicole, so go. I don’t need you in my life. I am very capable of taking care of myself, but this isn’t just about you anymore. And that’s the point, isn’t it? You’d probably be with Nicole right now if I hadn’t learned that I was pregnant, but you.

And that involves me. We’re in this together. You know, I’m gonna give you two some privacy. Jada, if you need anything, just say the word. Thanks, Ray. Yeah, and listen, if you need to take any time off, I’ll let you know down the line depending on what I decide to do, right? Yeah, I understand.

Like I said, I’m gonna go back, Jada, wait.

We have separate rooms and you paid your rent through the end of the month. Don’t feel like you have to rush out.

Okay? I guess I could take some time to think things through. I know you have decisions to make,

but before you do, I just want you to know one. What’s that?

You do not know what Eric is going to do. Oh, just because Jade is pregnant doesn’t mean he’s going to stay with her. Hey, this is the 21st century people co-parent all the time, and they aren’t couples. This is Eric Brady we’re talking about. Do you really think he’s gonna walk away from his own child or the.

Of his child. I mean, look at you and Chloe. Chloe and I are a completely different situation. No, you’re not. Yeah, no. Because you love her and she loves you, and you broke up with her and moved back in with Kristen because she’s the mother of your child. Am I right?

Didn’t your sister just get into town? I mean, why would she know anything about Stephan? Much less care about what happened to. I don’t know. I, I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure out what could be driving her. Okay.

I’m, I’m, unless what, do you remember recently when we were talking in the conference room? Yes. We opened the door and, and she was right there. She said she dropped her phone. Right, right, right. She, uh, maybe she was actually eavesdropping, did we say? We were talking about Rolf. Right, right, right. But but you, you didn’t mention Jakarta.

We, you just said that he was overseas. Yeah, but it’s, it’s, it’s all starting to add up now. Jing Gwen has always been too curious for her own good. Mm-hmm. or ours. Seems. Well, Lee, you are gonna have to track down your little sister and get her in line before she finds out what you did to Stephan.

Brainwashing. Stephan. I don’t know where you heard that. I got it straight from the horse’s mouth. My brother, or are you calling me a liar? Of course not. I’m just surprised he confided in you. Well, we tell each other everything. The ferry close. I see. And he was extremely grateful for what you did. Making sure Stephan didn’t come between him and Gabby there.

I was happy to have, yes. Okay. Okay. Now we just need to get my dad’s involvement on record.

Working at Damara headquarters has been really enlightening. Hmm. Zing. All the alliances. This seemed to change by the. Oh, it is an invigorating place to work. After all, change is the spice of life. Very true. And also, a few weeks ago, Lee and EJ Derro were mortal enemies. And now what was that? What was that?

I didn’t hear anything. I’m registering a sudden electromagnetic interference.

I seem to have found the source and it is you.

Your brother didn’t send you Diddy. Jing. Then what are you really doing here? You’re varying via, don’t you come near me, old man. I have a third degree black belt. What doing with that ready?

Wendy. Wendy.

I don’t know why I lost my cool and I, I don’t know what kind of reaction she was trying to get outta me, rambling on and on about her wedding like that. I mean, was she trying to make me jealous? Clearly, I keep telling her I feel nothing but contempt when I look. Are you sure about that?

What I did to Stephan? You mean what we did to him? Oh, credit. Where credit is duly. It was your idea, which you gladly went along with. Yeah, but if I’m found out, no one’s going to care. You see, it’s one of the advantages of my reput. Everyone expects me to be underhanded and devious and see since Brady and Chloe have already broken up, if Stephan does get his memory back, it’ll make no difference to me.

But on the other hand, if Gabby does find out what you did to Stephan. Oh, hanging too. It’s going on

this situation with Kristen and me. It was extremely complicated. I know, I know. But what’s pretty simple is the two of you are together again, raising your child. Jada is not Kristen. Well, neither am I. You know when EJ and I were together, I was so desperate to hold on to him. I stole your sister’s baby after I had a miscarriage and EJ stayed with me and he is hardly a man of honor and.

Whereas we both know that Eric believes in the old-fashioned traditional definition of family, as if that’s what we grew up with. Well, maybe that’s what he’s always dreamed of, and he’s never been so close to having it as he is now. I’m sorry. I’m sorry about all this. And I’m sorry that I allowed us to get too.

Yeah, well, it’s a good thing you realize this sooner rather than later that you were in love with Nicole. Although I have suspected it, I just was, I just chose to be in denial about it. I thought we were always safe. If you’re referring to birth control, it’s not a hundred percent like Sarah told us when she first gave us the news.

I know you. It’s your body, it’s your choice, and I’ll support you in whatever you want to do. Really, Eric, I’m kind of surprised since you were a priest that you’re so open-minded. I left the priesthood twice, so I’m not gonna be dog manic or make any demands, but if this makes a difference, I always wanted a.

I never, I never thought I could have one on my own. I’m only telling you this, so you know, if you do decide to carry the baby, you can count on my support financially in any other way he want.

I’ll be there a hundred percent for this baby and for you if you want me to be. And where does that leave you in, Nicole?

I can’t ask Eric to turn his back on the one thing that he’s wanted his whole life. He’s wanted you his whole life. I know you’ve spent a lot of your life thinking that you don’t really deserve happiness, Nick, you are wrong. You do. You do. And so does Eric, and my hope is that two of you kind of find that happiness together.

Thank youre. Thank you for being the best friend anyone could ask for.

Ah, there you are, laptop. I took it by the pod, but you weren’t there. Sort about Jada’s news. Because that really throws a wrench into your plans with Eric. But uh, clearly you’ve already moved on Ray Rays just being a friend. Oh, right. Okay. Is he? Well, that’s great. But, uh, you know, no one knew you should keep your options open.

Just don’t never come crawling back to me.

Am I sure I hate. Let me count the ways you still don’t seem convinced. Well, you seem very eager to throw whatever this thing is that we have going on in her face. Well, of course, I wanted her to see that. I am very happy with you. You are the only woman for me.

Am I interrupting something? Kristen was just asking for her job back and she got upset when I said I couldn’t help her. Not without AJ’s approval. I am only second in command after all. Well, it was worth a shot. Well, since there’s nothing you can do for me, there’s no point in me wasting your time or mine.

Hmm.

Lee, are you lying to me? What are you talking about? Well, you told me you talked to EJ about getting Kapi Sheik back to me, but you just told Kristen you couldn’t even get her her old job back at de. You, you made it seem like getting Gabby Sheik back to me was very doable. Why? Why did you tell me you had the power to help me?

They’re two completely different situations. Gabby EJ sees Kristen as a traitor. He doesn’t want her anywhere near him, but since you are out of Dara, you’re more of a minor annoyance to him. He doesn’t need two fashion houses. Right. Yeah. Thank you. You, you’re the best. Yeah. Question. Um, did you manage to find your sister?

Mm, yeah. Well, it turns out Jwe was playing hokey. That’s strange. But she was so eager about getting this job at Dara headquarters. What, why would she blow it off on her second week at work? You don’t know Jing Wen as well as I do. She is, uh, full of Surpris.

Wendy. Wendy. Hey. Hey. Can you hear me? Oh my God. What did he do to you?

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Can’t believe we’re finally here. Beautiful downtown Jakarta, you only tell us what, uh, 36 hours. No, I’m so tired. I don’t know who I am, let alone my time. It is now. I thought a private jet was supposed to save time. Yeah, well, even if private plane can’t fly through a monsoon, so, Ugh. Real horizontal bed.

Hey, be careful with that stuff. That’s got my film equipment in it. It costs a fortune. Yeah. What you totally don’t need. Look, I’ve never been to Indonesia before and as a filmmaker, I want to document my experience. Okay? Listen up scsi. We’re not here to make a movie. We’re here to find out if your dad and my brother brainwashed Stephan.

Got it.

Ej, we need to talk. What are you doing in my chair? It’s not your chair. Okay, well, what are you doing in ejs Chair? Ejs outta the office today. Attending to a personal matter. Okay, well, I’m here attending to a personal matter myself. I want my company back

and something wrong. Should I go get those puppets back from Henry to make sure that we do this right? You wanna make dumb jokes or kiss?

You are telling me there was no Mr. Re client or the, the threats, the extortion. You weren’t representing someone else. It was just me all along. So you decide to put me and my daughter through hell for the money? No. I wanted to make you suffer for revenge. Revenge For what? For what? Just who the hell are you?

It’s true. You’ve killed someone. Yes. I, I did. I don’t buy a Dupree. You’ve never hurt anyone. But I did, and I have lived with it for years. But you never said anything I was gonna tell you a couple of weeks ago, but I, I couldn’t and I didn’t want you to know, but. Now everyone is going to know that a woman is dead and she’s dead

because of me.

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

This isn’t your company, Gabby. We kicked you out. Remember I’m talking about Gabby Sheik. Which is now part of Dara. Why on earth would we give it back? Because you have basic black, why would you need another fashion house? Because Gabby Sheik makes us lots of money and Dara is like companies that make us lots of money, right?

But it’s my company. I built it from the ground up. It’s my concept. It’s our company. And maybe you should have done a better job at retaining the rights. It has. My name Gabby. The answer is, You can go

say there’s nothing you can do to change my mind. Oh, well how about this?

Am I interrupting?

I know why. You don’t have to bite my head off. Okay. Well, you don’t have to start sentences As a filmmaker,

I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I am nine degrees of Chet Laed. I’m here to find out if my brother did or did not do something. She really reprehensible. I’m just trying to think that maybe he did.

I don’t wanna know. I think maybe I have to look, I guess, uh, I guess I’m just so used to everyone in my family being willing to do anything to get what they want, if it means anything. If Lee is involved in brainwashing stuff and he did it because he really loves Gabby, my dad just did it for. We’re force of habits and the deras have been taking over people’s brains for generations.

It’s kind of like handing down the family recipe for pasta, fa, joli. They’re sweet in kind of a creepy way. Thank you. From what I heard at the office, your dad and my brother had this together. They sent wolf out of the country to cover their tracks. Now we need to figure out what he knows.

First we gotta find him. No, first I need to take a shower. I feel like I was born in these clothes.

Something tells me you stepped on a whole lot of people as you claw your way up in this. So I guess I’m not surprised that you have no idea who I am. So you think that I’ve wronged you somehow, you and your daughter. So to pay us back, you started digging for dirt and found out about that incident in London.

It was not an incident, it was a death, and I took that death very, very personally. Dupre. You need to know that you are looking at someone who is going to love you no matter what. I’m not so sure about that. Well, it doesn’t matter. I am. I don’t want you to know this about me, but you deserve to know the truth.

You better sit down.

Lee, your fiance and I were just talking shop. Oh, bilingually. By the way, will you tell this little minion here that, uh, Gabby Sheik is mine and that I’d like to have it returned to me asap, Gabby. There’s no way in hell EJ is going to return that little dress shop of yours. It’s mine. Gabby, lemme just talk to EJ about it, see what we can work out.

Oh man. Lee, it looks like your personal life and your professional life are on a major collision course. I mean, you’re in love with Gabby, you’re working for ej. Looks like you’re caught between a rock and a Dera place. Will you please just shut up? Hmm. So touchy pre-wedding jitters bride. Lee, unless you have some business here, I’ve got work to do.

I was actually looking for Jing Wen, but she wasn’t in her office. Where is she’s working remotely today. Really? From where?

What are you doing? Answering work? Emails. I have to keep people from wondering why I’m not in the office. Right. Are you going to get dressed? Am I distracting you? Yeah, cuz you’re dripping water everywhere. Ah, there’s already water everywhere. It’s humid as hell. At least imagine. Tell us more of a dry heat.

Hmm. Uh, well, before I get dressed, I had a thought in the shower and I wanted to share it with you that you should stop shaving your chest hair. Nope. Don’t shave my chest tears. I just don’t grow any. Anyway, the thought that I. Was Rolf in his experiments, right? How he lives for them. I don’t think there’s any way that he would’ve ever agreed to come here if my dad and your brother didn’t set him up with some kind of lab, a high tech one.

That sounds like a good place to start. Hey, Stephanie. It’s uh, it’s Chad. Look, I just wanted to give you a heads up. Apparently Sloan gave Gwen Rez check her file on Chanel. Um, I, I, I convinced her to sit down and, and run the story about trash instead. I think that we should still probably get together and figure out how we want to move forward.

Um, just gimme a call. Okay. Bye.

That was nice. I’m glad you proof. We should stop though, because Henry’s in the other room and he could wander back in. I don’t like it, but you’re right. Can’t traumatize the kid. Yeah. Ally has enough to deal with as it is. It all happened when I was living in London and I was still in college. Um, university.

And it was my senior year and I had an affair with one of my professors. And she was the woman who died? No, no. Um, she was married to him and, um, he was the very dreamy doctor Nathan. Bedford,

I was struggling in his class and you know, the bread, they, they grew up reading Dickens and I was just lost. And so I thought that’s why he was getting me extra attention and he was trying to, I, well I thought he was trying to help me, um, catch up in his classes and I, um, I would go to his office. Office hours cuz he asked me to.

And he, he really seemed like he, he cared about what I, what I thought. Hmm. I’m sure he did. Anyway, uh, we were reading Bleak House and he took me to the rooftop of the English department and he wanted to show me some of the locations from the book. And Ali, oh God. It was, it was beautiful. The sun was setting over the Tims and he pointed out to where Chancery was and ah, I, I leaned over to try to see it and I got scared and he.

He pulled me back and he kissed me

and it was, it was thrilling to me. And that was the start of the affair

and the start of. The worst thing that has ever happened to me.

So I love my wedding present. A new bride per book. Yeah. Hello. That’s between, uh, that and what to, uh, expect on your wedding night. , you’re so hilarious. So how are you? Just don’t ask me that because I am really doing fine, except when Roman is always asking me how I’m doing and then that drives me crazy.

Well, that’s because he was scared he was gonna lose you. So was I. I know. And are you, you both went through a love. So how are you doing? You probably have a lot on your plate with this Paulina situation. . Yeah. Stephanie and I have been on full damage control since the story broke. Yeah. How’s that going?

Given how you feel about her? You remember that? Yes. I remember it. Dying. I wasn’t dead. And how did you So elegantly put it really into her. Well, yeah. And then I also said that I wasn’t ready for anything to happen between us. Yeah. Well is that still the case?

It doesn’t matter. It’s a moot point. She’s dating Alex Carri.

Oh, well this is domesticated now, isn’t it? Oh yeah. Maybe later we can watch a cooking show. Oh yeah. Mm-hmm. , you gotta say, it is hard to believe. A couple weeks ago you couldn’t stand me, and now I put, apparently you can sort of call . You have to admit, when we first met you were. Obnoxious. Ouch. The touche.

I was trying to be disarming. Well, it wasn’t completely your fault. He was bad timing. Meaning the last guy I dated, he came on strong like you did. Like I was the end all and the be all. I mean, I really fell for it. But then he just, um, well you spell Ghosted, , and, um, there you were following the exact same playbook, so I wasn’t about to let you or any man play me like that Again, those months were, Oh, they were magic.

And it wasn’t just about the sex. He would give me books to read that I never heard of, and he’d ask me questions about what I thought and what I felt about those books, and, and then it would be days later and we will be lying in bed and then outta nowhere, he’d say, oh, I was thinking about what you said.

And it was just it. It made me feel like he not only listened, but he actually took what I said serious. It was the polar opposite of mama. He, he actually treated me like I was an adult. But you were a kid. Chanel, he was your teacher. He, he used his position and his status to, sorry, go on.

Um,

you know how it goes. Um. I fell head over heels in love with him and I was gonna marry him and I was going to inspire him to finish the novel that he knew he had in him. And what about the wife?

Uh, you’ll be stunned to hear that he told me the marriage was loveless and toxic and that he was just there for the kids, and now the kids were gone. How long were you two together? Almost the whole semester.

And then one night I got this text from him saying to meet him on the rooftop hour up our. Special place only when I got there. It wasn’t him,

it was the wife.

Just how personal is this vendetta of yours? It’s finally clicking into place, isn’t it?

I didn’t see it before, maybe because I never. But I’ve seen a picture and now I can see a slight resemblance. Yeah, people always did say I had her eyes. Dr. Bedford’s wife, the one who Chanel murdered.

Shouldn’t pick up. Wonder where she is? Well, she’s probably at home. Right? I’ll see if I have her new address. Well, I know where it is. She’s, um, staying with Allie and Chanel. When did that happen? Wendy said, Johnny set it up. Okay, well, um, I guess I’ll head over there now. One head over with me. Actually, I’m gonna get the Gabby Sheik paperwork ready so that when EJ gives me the, okay, I can hit the ground running.

Oh, hang on. I just got a weather report here. It says once EJ gives the, okay, hell will freeze over and I’ll see you tonight. You know, I think, um, I’m gonna wait for you to come back here with him. Did I not mention that I have work to. The printer should have the wedding invitation proofs within the hour, and I thought we could look them over together.

You’re sure you wanna wait? Well, I mean, I’d like to get them approved as soon as possible. Okay. I’ll be back as soon as I can play. Nice.

Any luck? I’ve been using my access to damer files, to local police corporate expenses and so far I don’t see any payments for lapse on your Carta. Did you try using my father’s too? Nothing. But what if they’re disguising? The lease is just regular office space. All they do lease a lot of buildings here.

Whatever it is, it would take a lot more power. Right to, to power a full-blown lab. You’re right. Than an actual office. I’ll, I’ll look up electricity pills.

Bingo.

She, she must have read the, the text because she, she knew about the, um, the rooftop and she. She’d set the whole thing up and when, when I got there and she saw me, she lost it. And I can’t even tell you the thing she called me, but the nicest one was home wrecker. And I should have just turned around and left, but I was, I was so stupid young.

You were young. Anyway, I don’t know why, but I, I tried to explain to her that he was unhappy with her and that he loved me and that he was going to divorce her and marry me, and she just looked right at me and said, he’s mine, and then she slapped me. She never said she loved him. Just, he’s mine.

And then she told me that he was lying to me and that he would never leave her or their bay water flat with a garden bitch. And then I said, oh, and I shouldn’t have, I should have, what did you say? Is that flat? Yours too. And, oh, God, ally, she lost it. She, she just, she charged me like a rocket. And I, I, I tried to get away.

I tried it, but it all happened so fast and I tried to push her away, but, but I, I didn’t realize how close we were to the edge and then,

I can still hear her scream,

and then I looked over the side and she was lying there in a pool of blood and

I killed her rally. I killed her.

My mother was the strongest, smartest woman I’ve ever known. She was the reason I became a lawyer. I always wanted to be just. I was actually in law school when I, uh, I got the call, they said she’d killed herself, which didn’t make any sense. But, uh, but then my dad called and uh, he said it was true. What exactly did he tell you?

That he told her he wanted a divorce and she couldn’t take it, so she jumped off a building, but, Again, didn’t make any sense because she’s a fighter. She would never do that. So your father never told you about Chanel? Oh, you mean his side piece? Watch it. No, he didn’t share that part of the story with me.

And when he resigned his position, I thought it was because he was grieving. Of course, now I know the truth. And when he stopped working on that novel that he always talked about, he started drinking himself to death. When you first started to blackmail me, I looked into his whereabouts. I saw that he died a couple years ago.

When he was dying, he took my hand and he told me that my mother hadn’t really killed herself. It was at his funeral that I decided to find out what had really happened, which is when I found out that your precious little Chanel had killed my mother.

What happened next?

I didn’t know what to do. I, I just stood there frozen for a long, long time, and then all of a sudden the campus. Burst through the door of the rooftop, and they took me down to their office and they asked me what happened, and I couldn’t even really hear what they were saying because I just kept hearing her in my head.

I kept hearing what she said to me that, that I was a slut and a home record, and she told me that she had children and that I had ruined their lives. And, and so then I just, I just blurted out, it’s my fault. It’s my fault. And I told them that I was having an affair with her husband and that. I pushed her and I even signed a statement.

I don’t understand. I mean, obviously there was no trial

and no one seems to know about this. How did you keep it quiet?

Are you at all interested in the truth, or do you just wanna be a self-righteous victim? Oh, I know the truth. I read her statements. She admitted she pushed my mother. Well, sh she admitted she pushed her only to protect herself. No, she didn’t lure your mother to that roof. She didn’t lunge at your mother.

If it was self-defense, why did you cover it up? You hid the evidence, the surveillance photos, the. Not to mention the hush money you gave this school. Well, she’d been through enough. She got off Scott free. She seduced my father, killed my mother. And then you just went and cuted it up.

So Stephanie’s dating Sonny’s brother. It was one date. How do you feel about that? I think that she can do better, but I’m a friend, so I’m gonna support her because that’s what friends do. Oh, I. Um, what happens when you decide that you want to be more than France? I don’t know, Kate. I don’t know if or when I will be ready to move on.

I, I’m, I, I might never move on with someone else again. I might never be with anybody else, ever again. Oh, come on. Don’t say that. I think I know Abigail would want you to fall in love. I just hope that you don’t wait too long. Oh, Stephanie and Alex May have crashed and burned by then. I’ll fallen madly in love.

Thank you. You know, I am ashamed to admit that I have certainly ghosted my fair share of women, although I was pretty upfront about what. intentions were, you know, I wasn’t looking for love or any type of commitment. Just a good time. Looking back on that now, it’s a pretty crappy thing to do. Hmm. And why were you so scared of love?

I wasn’t scared of love, I just, I was averse to it. An important distinction.

I honestly think it’s cuz of my mom. Angelica. Yeah. Yeah. She always, she always told me growing up the entire time that love was this trap full of misery and pain and upbeat was. Yeah, she was a pretty bitter woman after my dad left her for Adrian. So rather than getting hurt again, she just went from one meaningless fling to the next, and I guess I kind of followed her lead.

Could I tell you this though? The woman wasn’t wrong. If you don’t care, you don’t get hurt.

But then, But what my mom went on to live this really sad life after my dad was gone. She just became kind of desperate. That must have been really hard to watch, especially after my dad and Adrian seemingly had it all. You know, I told myself this whole time that I was just like my.

That I would never have what they did,

and I met you.

When you said you were going to wait for Leah, I didn’t realize you meant in my office. Shut your office. Well, could you keep it down please? The noise is driving me nuts. I can’t focus. Oh, it’s the printer. Sounds private. Maybe you should take it in the hall. Martin. Hi. Yes. Did you send over? No, no, no, no. I don’t have the name of the fonts.

I dunno them off the top of my head, but you know what? I am in my old office. You know what? They could be here. Hang on a second. Wait. See? Ej, did it move so much here?

Hi. Hi, can I help you? I’m Lee Shin Jing. Wen uh, Wendy’s brother. Is she here? The new roommate? No, I’m sorry. Um, Ellie told me she left town. Oh. Um, did she say where she went? No, not as I recall. Sorry. Well, thanks for your time. For sure. And if, uh, I hear from all and she says anything, we’ll be sure to let you.

I’d appreciate that. Take care. You too.

This is Lee in. I need you to locate my sister. So if we’re right, Dr. Ralf slab is only a few miles away and with Jakarta traffic, that should be what? An hour? We better get a move on. Wait, wait, wait. We don’t even have a plan. Even if we do find this guy, he’s not just gonna admit that he brainwashed someone.

Uh, then I’ll say I’m here on Lee’s behalf, uh, that he wants me to make sure he has everything he needs. Okay. Yeah, and I’ll, I’ll say that my dad sent me. Oh, too risky. I’m sure he knows you’ve been on the office with your dad. It’s better if I go alone. I’ll, I feel like I’m in on everything. Trick him into confessing.

No, no, no. We, he’s just gonna deny it later. We need proof. Okay. Uh, I can use my phone to record him

and actually I have a better idea after the campus cops took my statement. I called my mother and she was on the next plane to London telling her about Nathan what happened. It was the hardest thing that I’d ever had to do. She just went into mother bear mode and when she got there, she met with the president of the school and she convinced him that it would be a huge scandal if the truth came out.

A distinguished professor having an affair with a young, impressionable student and, uh, she also offered to make a sizable donation. Make it all go away and the president agreed, they issued a statement saying that Martha, Committed suicide and the surveillance photos and my statement, they all just disappeared as far as anyone knew.

I was never there that night.

So how did Sloan and her client get all this evidence? I have no idea. How long have you been plotting all this? About a year. I tracked you and Chanel down to Salem, set up my practice here using my mother’s maiden name, Peterson. I didn’t want you to see me coming. And then I waited for the perfect moment to make my move to do as much damage as possible when I was running for governor.

Write smack dab in the public. You know, you are very much like your mother. You find out your father’s a lion cheat who said your mother committed suicide to cover his butt down zero 60. You go blaming someone else lies, threats named calling blackmail with no reflection. There might be another side to the story and that maybe your mother isn’t quite the feminist saint that you make her out to be.

Don’t you say another word about my mother? I’m just saying you.

And Chanel is like me and vice versa. So you have, uh, metaphorically lured me to the rooftop. You talking smack you threatening me thinking you got me in your clutches. But as I said, my daughter and I are very much alike. Someone charges me, I shov back hard. So you might want to think about where you might land.

You need to listen to me. That woman attacked you. It was self-defense. I go at her. She’s the one who lured you to the rooftop in the first place. I was sleeping with her husband. That professor prayed on you. Tell me, after this happened, did he even try and help you? I never saw him again. He was forced to resign.

Poor. Allie, you don’t understand the guilt. I, I kept pushing it down, trying to deny it, and that’s why I was in the party scene when we met. But don’t you see it’s all come back because, because I never paid for what I did. I killed that woman. And now, I have to face the consequences

no matter what you say. Chanel is going to prison the hell she is. Now I know it must be hard for you to accept the fact that your father was a drunken sex addict, and your mother lured a young woman to the roof that night to punish her, humiliate her, make her pay. She instigated that fight. Chanel was only defending herself and.

I am not going to let your neurotic need to rewrite history, ruin my daughter’s life. No. She is gonna get what’s coming to her, what she deserves, and so are you. And that’s a promise. Sorry I never met you folks. Sound like a fun couple

baby.

Everything. Okay. Um, Chad left me a message about the situation with Paulina. I’d, I’d better go check in. Okay. If you must. Thank you for coming by and helping me out with Henry. Hmm. No problem. But, Before you go, do you think maybe we could go on another date? I think I would look forward to that.

I don’t wanna hold Stephanie back when I can’t promise anything. Oh God. There you go again, always having to be fair. Always having to do the right thing. I don’t even know why I like you.

Oh honey. If I push you, it’s just because I want you to be happy again. Yeah, yeah. I know. I know. Yeah. I’m so glad I was able to find my. Thank you Martin. I’m gonna, I’ll be waiting for your email. Okay. Time for you to go. I’m waiting for me. Wait somewhere else. I don’t wanna wait somewhere else. Okay. Too bad.

Get your hands off me. I want you outta here now. No.

Did you find my sister? She logged in from where?

Hey. Hey. You ready for your hidden mic? Oh, I am now. I wasn’t about to let you get anywhere near me until I showered. Okay. Uh, Lift up your shirt.

Just gonna take this in, uh, right here,

this mic. We’ll pick up everything that Groff says and I will be right outside. So I guess the film equipment came in handy after all.

How’s that feel? Feels good. I mean, it’s fine.

Am I making you nervous? Why would I be nervous? I dunno. You tell me.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Client never wanted a,

my client has no comment at this time. Of course, governor Elect price believes in justice. That’s why she’s asked me to remind everyone that in this country, a person is innocent until proven guilty. Well, I’m sorry to hear that. That’s all for now. Thank you.

What now?

Oh, hey, you read the intruder?

They’re all sharks and they smell blood in the water.

Bloody clothes. Damn. We do now.

Right. Well, we reached out to the Accused Bakery sweep bits for comment, but it seems that there’s some sort of a cover up that is expanding faster than the. Dough in their ovens? No. Oh God. How am I supposed to do a cover story on this? And I can’t even get comment from anybody.

Hi Gwen’s. Check from the Spectator. I know who you are, Gwen. Yeah. Your, um, sister-in-law’s girlfriend who’s just arrested for mad. You know, there’s unidentified sources that say that there’s some sort of a cover up going on. So tell me, when did Allie know this? What does

Ra It’s Allie. Um, I’m calling because. I need to see Chanel and they won’t let me. They’re saying that trash is not allowing visitors. If there’s anything that you can do, let me know. Show me back please,

Alex. Hey, I heard about Chanel. Thought maybe you could use a friend.

I don’t care what that fool trash says. I’m coming down there to see my baby girl. I’m the governor elect. What’s she going to do? Arrest me, Paulina. Listen, as a mother, I understand where you’re coming from. But as your daughter’s attorney, I have to ask you to just stay away. Okay. You and Abe need to avoid the press.

Good morning, Ms. Dupree.

Sleep well. I just thought after a long night in lockup, you might be ready to have a little chat with me. So what do you say? Are you ready to confess to murder,

like sands through the hourglass? So are the days of our lives.

You okay? Yeah. That’s a dumb question. No, it’s not. I mean, what else are you supposed to say? I’m not. Alex, well, let me see her. I mean, I watched them take her into a cell last night and then it’s alright. And then, I mean, I came home and Henry asked me why Chanel’s not here to do his favorite goodnight puppet show with him , he likes her funny voices better.

So I had to do both characters through tears. Obviously he knew something was wrong, but he eventually, he passed out. Did you get any sleep at all? No. I couldn’t sleep in our bed. I mean, I came out here, but this couch sucks, but I knew I wasn’t gonna sleep anyway. Yeah, I get it. I’m sorry. I, I don’t, I don’t even know what this is about.

Like how could this happen? Chanel arrested for murder and they’re saying that they have all of this evidence. God knows where they got that. Yeah, actually I know where they got it.

Since when are you a reporter for The Spectator? I’m asking the questions. Thank you. Okay. Tell me, so when did your husband find out that his sister was dating a murderer? No fricking comment. Especially after everything you did. The Chad and Abigail. You have some nerve accusing anyone of anything. Don’t think I’m not gonna write about.

Maybe he won’t answer your questions, but I will.

I tried to squash that story, but the intruder isn’t really big on facts or integrity or, what’s that word again? Oh yeah, truth. Well, I’m well aware of the depths to which the injury will sink. The problem is their readers will believe this trash. I mean, all they care about is boosting click numbers, but all they have to do is feed their readers These sensationalized lies like this.

I was the target before. Saw the scars from the hatch job first. They went after my one night stand with Glen Resk, and then my alleged affair with Leo Stark Lime rat. Good morning, governor Elect price. I have your schedule, your call log your half, half vanilla soy with just a dusting of turmeric.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find your favorite pastry that bearclaw from Sweet Bits. So I took the initiative of making you a cake and a mug in the microwave. You fired Mary. Uh, but I’m Leo, I don’t give a damn what your name is. I’m kicking your ass to the curb. You are done here, but I I, I’m the only one standing between you and all those blood thirsty reporters out there.

I just told them I saw Barbara Streisand putting in her advanced order at the Brady Pub for 800 taken baked turkeys for all those weird underground mall employees. She has those press vs flanked over there in a wild goose chase. But they’ll be back. But you won’t. I’ll take my chances with the press.

But you are the voucher I need to get rid of. Cause you are the reason that my daughter was arrested for murder.

It’s just a matter of time. Chanel, trust me, it’ll be better for all of us. Even you if you just confess what the hell is going on here? You know damn well you can’t question my client without me present. I was merely checking in with our guest here and since you finally decided to join. I’d like to ask you a few questions Chanel, and get the answers we are all looking for, and I assume that your attorney has had a chance to look over the file of evidence that we have.

Yes. As a matter of fact, I’ve had a chance to look it over and that’s exactly why I’m here to insist that you drop all of these charges.

Why would I believe a single word that came out of your mouth? You never know. Maybe I have some insights that could be valuable to you. . Yeah, not a chance. What do you think the state bar would do if they found out that you coaxed Leo Stark, your client? Into lying to the police gui to dignify that with the, and how do you think that the state bar would react if they found out that said obstruction of justice led to the wrongful arrest of an innocent party?

Namely me, you know, if this really is your line of questioning, I would say that there’s no proof that I had any knowledge of my client’s true intentions. And with the information that my client gave me, I acted in his best. Also, I am currently available for council. So why don’t you hop on over to my website, uh, you know, for the little piece you’re writing, why don’t you go to Hill?

Actually,

better question. Do you have any knowledge of who gave Melinda Trask the dirt on Chanel dupree? And the answer, ding, ding, ding. Is me. Great. Your skeezy lawyer friend is the one who had evidence on Chanel. Where did she get it? I don’t know. And for the record, Sloan is no longer my friend or anything else for that matter.

Ever since she has proven to me that she’s nothing but a ambulance chasing she Devil. Yes, that should pretty much be on her business card. And now it turns out that she’s blackmailing Chanel’s mother for some mystery. Not that I even had a clue about that when I stole the file of evidence from her apartment.

Oh, wow. I mean, thank you. Please do not thank me yet. It’s not the end of the story. Sloane somehow got the file back. She gave it to the da. Why on earth would I drop the charges when I have everything I need to convict your client right here in this little file. Right. Listen, I know you’re really busy, so you might have forgotten, but we’re in Salem.

Oh, is that where we are? Yes. And the incident in question actually happened when Chanel was living abroad in the United Kingdom. So Ms. Trask, you don’t actually have jurisdiction. So I’m just gonna go find someone to uncuff you and get you out of here. Oh my God, thank you so much. I wouldn’t thank her just yet.

Ms. Dupree, because you aren’t going anywhere, I have obtained permission from Scotland Luard to question your client on their behalf, . Okay? You think a judge is gonna buy that? Mm, I’m sure. Or else I wouldn’t have gone through the trouble. Okay. We’ll see at the arraignment, but until there’s a ruling, my client’s not answering any more of your questions.

Okay, sure. Fine by me. Oh, uh, Ms. Brady, did you happen to see your husband out there when you were making your call? What do you want with Sean? Well, we’re gonna need someone to haul in Chanel’s mother for question. If your client won’t talk, maybe Governor elect price will

Ms. Price. If you would just let me explain what the hell is there to explain. See, Stephanie Johnson told me. Everything. So now I know that you, you, you took sw, you are the one who left that Sloan Peterson into my safe. Well, no, no, she didn’t tell you everything because she left out the part about being an accident.

I only opened up that safe in my capacity as your assistant to execute your executive orders. You said I could have an advance on my salary. Remember, that’s what this is about. The payback said shyster, and I didn’t want to interrupt the newly elected governor of this great state. So I opened up the safe and I took the advance from petty cash.

Not a penny more you can check, but I had no idea those documents were in there and no idea that sneaky Succubus was gonna smash them out from behind my back. I know you probably want to kill me right about now. Don’t gimme any ideas.

How did Governor Elect price persuade the voters that she was the Law and Order candidate when she has a daughter in prison for murder and another on the way there for that same charge. And then the journalist goes on to, to say that Hanau was let away in handcuffs on election night and then declares their guilt as if he’s judge, jury, and executioner.

I mean, it seems like he’s, he’s, he’s coming at this like he’s got a personal vendetta. You know? There’s not a single fact. Okay. Okay. But until we know the full story, let’s stop focusing on the little details. Fact or fiction. Right now, our only job is to take care of Paulino and her family. So the question is how do we spend this?

What do you want with my mama? I think you know, Ms. Dupree, that this file has evidence that your mother is an accomplice after the fact that she covered up your crime to cover your ass. And that is, as I’m sure you know, illegal and I think the good people of this state should know who they elected as their.

I’ll just go get a detective and go down to our campaign offices. And if Sean isn’t available, well, I’ve planned people on staff that can make the arrest. No, no. Wait, I will answer your questions. No, Chanel don’t. Yes. Do this. Yes. Ask me anything you want and I will answer. I will not let my mother pay for something that I did.

Wait, I think I got it. Okay. You said that reporter wrote the articles if it was personal. Well, our venomous district attorney makes everything personal, right, that she does from what I’ve read and heard. She was determined to put Pauline’s daughter Lonnie behind bars for the rest of her life and would therefore be deeply disappointed if not infuriated, that that did not happen because Pauline had forced her hand, made her cut a deal.

So if she couldn’t get one daughter, then you get the other one that could work. That’s brilliant. You’re brilliant. Okay. Let’s keep the spin focused on our clients. But, okay. How do we, how do we drive this home? How do we get this story about a da with an ax to grind to a media outlet that doesn’t do hatchet jobs?

Well, I, uh, I have an in, what’s the only reputable newspaper in town? Of course, uncle Jack owns a spectator. Yeah. But Jack’s visiting Jennifer in New York, but they did hire a new reporter who I think is a year to make her mark. And you know, this person more intimately than I’d like to.

Check’s daughter. Great. What do you think Gwen Riz check will do you a favor given her history. I don’t know. I’ll make it happen. So you are the one who gave evidence against Chanel Dask. Guilty.

Right. So first you try to railroad me and now you are going after the governor elect’s daughter. What did you, did you vote for the other guy? No, no, no. I don’t get involved in politics. There’s way more money in the middle. Yeah. There’s also lots of money in fabricating evidence. Isn. Fine. Don’t take my word for it.

Never. Well, why don’t you be the judge? I can just send you the file. What’s your angle here? I have no angle. I’m just doing my duty as a good citizen. Besides, I think the people deserve to know the truth that that mommy of two murderers just got elected as governor. Keep an eye out from my email.

Look, I had no idea what was in that file, had anything to do with Chanel, and if I had known that, I would’ve burned the damn thing right then and there. Yeah, but you didn’t know, I mean, you were just trying to help. Yeah, and then I ended up causing a colossal mess.

Look, right now, I am here for you and to help you any way I possibly can. That’s it. Thank you.

Oh my God. Okay. Ray said that he pulled some strings. I can go see Chanel. That’s great. You gotta go. Oh yeah, I know. It’s such a relief. He said I can go right now. Perfect. Good. Cool. Hey, um, oh my, what am I gonna do about Henry? I obviously can’t bring him there and my new roommate’s outta town. I can babysit.

Really? You don’t? You don’t mind? I don’t mind. What do you mean? I just told you whatever I can do to help. You just said I don’t want my mother to pay for what I did. Is that an admission of guilt? Mr. Dpri? You do not answer that. Okay, fine. Let’s start with an easy one. Do you recognize this woman in this photo?

Yes. What’s her name? Martha Bedford. And this one, is that you? Yes. When I was in college. And here is the copy of the incident report. Is that your signature at the bottom indicating that this is your sworn statement?

Yes. So you admit you are the one who murdered Martha Bedford. Okay, we’re gonna stop right there. Don’t say another word. I can bring her mother in here if I need to. You know what? You can bring in her mother, her grandmother, the Pope, or the Easter bunny. This interview is over.

I did not give you the okay to open my safe, did I? Did I? So since you took that upon yourself, my little girl was arrested for murder. But she didn’t do it right. She’s innocent, isn’t she? Ms. Price? I understand exactly what your daughter is going through. I too have been falsely accused and it’s traumatic.

It’s horrible. I still have nightmares about it, except Chanel isn’t being falsely accused, is she? She’s guilty of sin.

Yeah, more lies from the desk of Sloan Peterson. I swear to God, if I get a virus from opening his attachment, I’m gonna bloody kill.

Oh my God. Hello Gwen. Sorry. I know you just, um, you just started at the Spectator and, uh, and boy do I have, I have a big. Story for you. Trust me, you are gonna want this byline. Not as big as the fish that I just landed.

You’ve tricked me. I turned my back for one second. Counting the money to pay you back and you pluck a personal file from safe. That’s theft. And now you’ve returned to the scene of the crime. Call the police. I have no problem testifying against her. I see you’re back to your old tricks, Mr. Stark. You just said your back was turned.

So how can you testify as a witness? Uh, no, you said that. I said my back was turned and now I retract that statement. I will have no problem telling the cops I saw you reach into that safe. Now I see it. I kept asking myself over and over, why, why would she hire this little pip squeak? And now it’s so clear.

Go, you’re done here. I’m just trying to help and you’re making things worse now just get. Fine, but you have not seen the last of me Peterson, and mark my words. You will eventually be very, very sorry. You ever messed with me in such an appallingly, deceitful way,

and good luck finding turmeric in this little burg I bought out Salem’s entire supply for you.

So, Another daughter made a mess and you swoop and clean it up, but yet again, all your power and money couldn’t save it from blowing up in your face. You know, I really thought this finger paint would come off a little easier, but we’re just gonna have to give you a bath later. For now, you do your thing.

Block time. It’s block time. Yeah. No, mommy must have forgot something. Good work. Yeah. Good work. Oh.

No, I don’t want my mother involved. Chanel. You do not say another word. Counselor, how about you and I have a little chat outside. Huh?

Don’t test me, miss Broody. I will haul in Paulina Price. Oh, please. If you’re going to, you would’ve done that already. I’m here to see my girlfriend finally, and nobody is going to stop me.

Alex, I didn’t expect to see you here. Well, ally went to go see Chanel, so I offered to stay. Henry. Oh, well that was nice of you. I, uh, I came by to see Allie too. I wanted to see if she was doing okay and if she needed help with what to say. You know, the press approaches her. Ah, so you’re here on a PR mission for the governor?

Yeah. Hmm. She was only elected yesterday and already as a major crisis. I’m just here to help however I can. Well, that makes two of us came here with the same message and, uh, Ended up becoming the backup babysitter. Oh, well, looks like you’ve got everything under control on this front. Yeah.

Hey, it’s okay buddy. Hey, it’s okay. Hey, mommy’s gonna be back soon. Promise. Okay. She’s gonna be back soon. Come here. Come on, let’s go. Alright. Alright buddy. She’ll be back soon. Shell be back soon. Maybe I’m needed here. After all,

the prisoner isn’t allowed. Any visitors. Well, commissioner Ray Hernandez says other. Here is his written authorization.

I, I’ll have to have a word with the commissioner actually, last time I checked Ray reports to the mayor, not you. So Yes, you can go in. She’s in there. Thank you.

The mayor, huh? Huh? You mean Mr. Paulina? Price? If he thinks he can sweep all of this under the rug too, then he’s in for a rude, awake.

Leo, are you okay? No Jackson, far from it. I am utterly miserable console me.

Oh, um, I was actually just doing some early Christmas shopping Ferrari, so I should probably, you know, get back. Yeah. You’re such a good daddy. I wish I had an adorable daddy buying me gifts, but this is for sure going to be a screw gear for little old me. You sit for a few. Just a few. I promise I won’t keep you.

Not that I could or should. Unlike me, you have a life, you have a job, a husband, child, family, and friends. Why would you wanna squander time trying to cheer up ale? Mazel like me.

Do you? Um, Do you wanna tell me what’s going on? Where to begin?

Aside from hating myself for being the most annoying person on the planet, by all accounts,

my new career is over before it even began.

I am not quite sure as to what you’re referring. Please. Let’s just skip this part. Okay. Your assistant just threatened to perjury himself. I think we both know where we stand. Well, that man is no longer my assistant. Okay. If you wanna do it that way, fine. Let me just spell it out for you. You lied about the murder of TR Coats to protect your eldest daughter, Lonnie.

Common Knowledge. Right, right. And now Trask knows what Chanel did and how you covered it up. Are we on the same page here now? So two daughters, two crimes, and two coverups. So now it’s only a matter of time if we’re slapped with handguns and let away and disgrace. Does that sound about right? Governor?

I am gonna give you an SJ p r exclusive. Are you, you ready for this? Da Trash Targets Governor Elect and Family over Old Grudge. Hey, uh, Gwen, are you listening to me? I, if you want to be a reporter, you’re gonna have to pull yourself off social media or whatever it is a, a stupid game. You’re, you’re playing and, uh, and focus on the news that’s happening right in front of you.

You know, I r l Baby. Fyi, I am not on social media and I’m not playing a stupid game. In fact, I’m doing research on my. New article. How does this headline sound? Right? Okay. Damning evidence surfaces in Governor elect criminal cover ups what I happen to be in possession of a copy of the evidence against Chanel and her mother.

The reporter never reveals her sources. And what the hell since you’ve seen so obviously invested. Sloane Peterson. Peterson gave you that. Me and Trask. And while Trask is gonna take it to the court, I’m gonna take it to the presses. Oh. Ah, no, no. You can’t publish that. Watch me.

Oh, Dupree. I was so worried about you. Oh, I’m good. Horton. Now that you’re here, and I’m so sorry for where you must be going, forget about me. You’re the one who’s in here. You’re the one who’s being falsely accused. I just, I miss you so much. So does. Oh, sweet Henry, is he here? Is, is he? No, no, no. He’s home.

He’s with Alex. And then I realized I wanted to go all the way home, but I couldn’t. Oh, no. How come? Oh, I wanted to run home, but I realized. I have no legs. Wha What do you mean you have no legs? We a tick. I have no legs either. What do we do? I dunno. But maybe it’s good. Now we found each other you mean because we both have no legs.

Yeah. We’re the same. We’re the same. Well, since we found each other, whatever shall we do, maybe we should kiss. You want me? To kiss you.

Alright. Here goes nothing.

Okay. Well, I mean, it’s not like he actually gave Peterson the file. Of course not. The last person I would ever be in cahoots with is that miserable skank. It was an accident. Did you explain that to Paulina? Madame? Governor Scrooge would not hear it, so she bagged me right out the door like I was a common criminal.

I’m never gonna have my happy ending. Like Bob crotch it. It’s crotch it. Leo, what’d I say? It doesn’t matter. Okay. Just maybe this isn’t the end of the story, you know, maybe Pauline will be visited by three ghosts tonight. I, I doubt it. No, no. I, even though it was an accident, it’s still my fault, son for opening up that damn safe without Ms.

Price’s permission. That was, uh, That was not cool. No, it wasn’t. Even though I didn’t have my usual alleged ill intentions, uh, Jackson, I really was turning the corner. I had a decent job. I was eating well, cutting back on the booze, reading all these self-help books about how to be a decent person. My favorite of which, by the way, is called Stop Fetching and Get a Life, which I highly recommend, and then I blew it.

Okay. Well, you know, on the bright side, you didn’t mean to hurt anyone. You, I mean, at least not this time. True.

I guess. I’m so used to crossing lines. I don’t even see them when they’re right in front of me.

Those allegations haven’t, haven’t been proven. I don’t know that you knew the, the whole reporter thing, but if Abigail were here, she would tell you. Then you need multiple, reliable sources. You can’t print it until you can verify it. Right. Well, I appreciate the, uh, crash course in journalism 1 0 1. Yeah.

Cheers. Thanks. But I’m, I’m good. And, uh, I think the, uh, documents that Sloan sent seem legitimate, so if they’re good enough to ask, but I would go to Jack.

But he’s focused on Jennifer right now. Please, Gwen, I’m begging you don’t publish this.

Give me a reason why not to jack your dad. He trusted you. He gave you this chance. I know you helped Jennifer get the help that she needed. Which shows me that I know that you, you want to be a better person. Keep that going and use the chance that he gave you for good. Don’t do trust dirty work. You know, from experience that Sloan isn’t somebody who who can be trusted.

You have to decide which side do you want to be on it.

Why are you doing. You broke our deal. Well, I stole the file. You stole it back. All fair and love in politics. But we were back to square one. I would’ve paid you all the same. Now you got nothing. When you gave that file to the da, you lost all your leverage. Your client must be thrilled. You cost that dirty blackmail, a ton of money.

I guess since everything’s out in the open now, I’ll let you in on a little secret. This was never about the money.

I had this amazing opportunity and I blew it off to smithereens, but hey, that’s what I’m best at, isn’t it? I threw away an incredible. Access to power. A decent salary. At least I still have all the turmeric a girl could want. I’m sorry. Really? Really?

Um, have you had breakfast, Jeff? Hello? Did grab this on my way out the door. Why? Come in now. Have a bite with me. I would love to, but like I said, I’m poor than Bob Crot. Come on you. You bought me dinner last night. All right. I owe you one. You really wanna be seen with the disgraced ex assistant of the soon to be disgraced Governor Elect.

I could care less what people think. All right. And you and didn’t look like you could use a friend. Are we friends now? Jackson? Mm-hmm. . Let’s just. Let’s start with breakfast. Okay,

well I guess our puppet show knocked him out cuz little Hank is sound asleep. he is. So brushes, I know. You know, our date last night didn’t really, uh, end the way a date is supposed to, you know, a good date anyway. And how does a good date end? Oh, oh. I suppose since we now know that we make such a good team, what else should we possibly do?

Hmm. Maybe we should kiss

fine. I’ll go with your story and I won’t publish the file. Thank you. Until I can verify it’s true. Off the record. I hope it’s not Why, so that I can write the story that I’d prefer to write. Trashing Sloan Peterson and Melinda Trask.

This wasn’t about a payout. It’s always been about a payback. You are telling me your mystery client never wanted a check. No more games. Ms. Peterson, tell me who the hell your client is. Who wants to hurt me in my family? Tell us me. Write this second, or one of us is gonna leave this room in a whole world of.

There is no client. The person who wants payback is me.

Why Belinda? Why are you so hell bent on punishing my client? Why? Why do you let your personal feelings or your need to be vindicated or whatever? Why do you let that prejudice? You like this, to prejudice me? Are you insinuating that I’m in breach of my professional obligations? Have you not let it sink in that I have incontrovertible evidence that this woman committed murder and got away with it, but you don’t.

You know damn well that no evidence is incontrovertible. You know what else I. Is it you are just prolonging the inevitable because Ms. Dupree is going down and so is her mother. This is all so crazy. They’re saying you killed someone. I know you Dupree. I know you better than anyone. There is no way that you could do anything like that.

No way.

I am sorry. I’m so, so sorry, but you’re wrong. I did kill someone.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Are you nearly done? You’ve about worn out that carpet. Well, we can certainly afford to replace it. Now that you’ve decided not to pay for your mother’s ransom, would you calm down? I’ve told you I’m handling this well, of course you’re handling it by comedian. A major felony of your own

trip’s gonna be, okay, Ava, I’m gonna bring him back. Safe. Promise me Steve Promise. I promise I’m gonna bring him home. Safe and sound

Dam. Eva, why aren’t you answering my calls? I’ve tried being patient, but obviously you had no plan B when Egypt didn’t pay up right way to get some mother back. I’ve had some uh, Complications on my end. So you need to wrap this up right now. I’ll not my wife, find out what I’ve done for you

pregnant. Are you sure? That is what the test indicates, but it’s not possible. Are you not sexually? We are, but we use birth control well, um, as you know, birth control isn’t a hundred percent effective.

I assumed this is a complication

you wanna be with.

When I asked you that a few hours ago, you adamantly denied it. I know. I know. Wife, and I’m so sorry. Why did you marry me? Because I loved you

tense.

I still have feelings for you. You’re a wonderful man, right? Oh, don’t just, don’t you stop. Stop humoring me. Okay? Just tell me the damn truth.

When you realized that you could have Eric back, you regretted getting involved with me, didn’t you?

I was just.

A substitute for your real love

like sand through the hourglass. So are the days of our lives.

I feel terrible. You don’t deserve this. You were so good to me. Oh, oh, stop. Just stop it, right? I don’t need you feeling sorry for me. You’re trying to absolve your feelings of guilt by telling me how good I was to you or whatever. I don’t give a damn about that anymore. Okay? I just, I just want the truth.

I understand. Okay. Okay, good.

You told me just a few hours ago you didn’t have any feelings for Eric. Yeah. I mean, you swore to it. In fact, as I recall, and I meant it at the time I did it, is just that things changed. Apparently everything changed. You honestly expect me to believe that you just had these feelings now since the last time I’ve seen you a couple hours ago.

No. Now these feelings, Eric, they’re not new. They didn’t just dawn on you. No, they didn’t. No. Okay, so we got married in June.

When you stood in front of me and you looked me in the eye, you promised to have hold and cherish me. Did you wanna be with Eric then?

No. No. Oh no. It was before we even sat our vow, wasn’t it? It was the moment that he came back into town.

No, be fun. When we, when Eric came back into town, I was, I was confused and I was infected in ways that I, I just didn’t expect. But, but when I looked in your eyes and I. My vows. I wanted to be with you. I wanted to be with you forever, so please, please don’t erase that. Why not? You just did.

He just told you, I don’t give a damn what you just told me. I wasn’t the one and you knew it. Hell,

please forget that I said that. I’m so. That is none of my business. I’m going to let you talk. Is there any chance that the test could be wrong? Uh, stupid question. I know these tests are very, very accurate. No, not, not a stupid question. Um, yes, they are very accurate, but I would be happy to run it for you again.

Just let me know. Okay? I am gonna let you two talk.

I dunno where to start, even know what to say.

Me neither. If only this. A happy surprise, but those seem to be in very rare supply these days, unlike unhappy ones.

Ah, Kayla, I thought you were working late. Obviously Steve is just comforting me. It’s okay, Ava. I am not. But I do wonder why you’re here. Tripp told us that you were moving to Seattle because of, uh, some problem you were having with ej. Yeah. Well, EJ doesn’t get to tell me what to do or where to go. End of story.

You call kidnapping Trip Johnson a felony. I call it a solid defensive maneuver. Tony, Eva put me in a corner when she took my mother. What else was I supposed. You pay the ransom , please don’t be in a standoff with this woman. She’s unpredictable and dangerous. Swallow your pride and just why the funds, Tony, me, you need to trust me on this.

I have no doubt whatsoever that my mother is safer because of what I’ve done. Not the opposite.

Bad day.

I didn’t see you there. That’s my surprise. I mean, given the way you barged in here and made a beeline for the bar, it’s obvious that you needed that drink. Just unwinding. What are you doing here? Chris was shopping. No, I’m working. Actually, today’s my first day at the Spectator. Hell of a start too.

You know, Paulina Price gets elected and her daughter gets arrested. Chanel was arrested for Madda. Yeah. You really don’t know the whole body town’s buzzing over it. Ah, I’ve been busy. I my first day of work too. Oh, so you were finally gainfully employed, are you? I am indeed. Well, don’t leave me in suspense.

Tell me everything.

Sounds like it’s a big problem with ej. Nope. Why are we even talking about that jerk? Just forget him. I said, I would help you, Ava, but I’m not gonna keep my wife in the dark. Keep me in the dark about. You know, and Steve’s gonna have to explain it. I’ve gotta take care of something.

I’m counting on you. I’ll keep you posted.

What’s going.

Trips been kidnapped.

I have a’s son, that’s checkmates. As soon as she will realize this and it will all be over. You seem awfully confident, don’t you. Now tell me how the negotiation’s been since you sent Ava a photo of trip being held at some point as she bombard with calls, a flurry of texts. No, I didn’t think so. She went ready, silent, didn’t she?

Give her time? A mother who’s desperate to save her son doesn’t need time. She replies immediately by saying she’ll do anything she can to get him back. She’s just trying to prove that she’s tough. Oh. Or she’s trying to give you a hint that she cares more about the money than she does the welfare of her son.

Hey, I know you think you have the winning move here, but it’s possible that what you’ve done, it’s brought you that much closer to losing your mother.

So the company’s called redneck, eh? Yes. A pharmaceutical startup. Right. Okay. That’s very exciting. Our job’s a job, right? And I needed the money buried under a mountain of debt from the Salem in as well. You know, isn’t your wife a doctor? Sarah’s still on probation and reduced salary on five bills to pay.

You know, it’s funny. In all the time we were together, I never remembered. You mentioning being interested in pharmaceuticals and, um, don’t companies like that hire people who are experienced in the field? Not necessarily. I mean, they, like you say, I had tons of potential and you know, I’m a hard worker and that’s an experienced con artist now what’s that supposed to mean?

It’s just that. While we’ve been sitting here, I’ve been discreetly scouring the internet for this so-called company and, um, can’t find a thing. Nothing. It’s almost as if it doesn’t exist. It’s brand new, a startup. So, I mean, there should be some sort of mention of it if it’s startup or not even a bare bones website.

But there isn’t. Just tell me. Why are you lying about your job?

Sorry. Fuck. I wanna be honest with you, but it’s, it’s complicated.

Well give it your best shot.

When I accepted your proposal, I wanted more than anything to be your wife. But,

but, but that was before I knew Eric left the priesthood,

so I was right.

I was right. You, uh, you regretted getting engaged. Pretty much from the moment I put that ring on your finger.

So our marriage was a farce from the beginning.

You got another unhappy surprise today. Is that what you’re saying? To me? Finding out that I’m pregnant is the last thing I expected.

This is the timing that’s really hitting me. The timing.

Can we please not pretend, I saw you about an hour ago, Eric, kissing your ex-wife.

You saw I went to Basic black looking for you, and there you were locked in what looked like a very passionate kiss with Nicole.

I guess shooting that magazine cover. Really stir up some old feelings for you.

Were you planning to tell me? Yes, yes. I was planning on telling you, and then Rave called to tell you I fainted, and now we know why.

Look, it’s been very obvious to me for a while now that Nicole has very strong feelings. But it wasn’t until today, until I saw the two of you kissing until I can see the look in your eye that you have right now that your feelings for her are just as strong. She just didn’t admit it. You want to be with Nicole despite.

Despite her marriage.

Call it what you want.

I will not call our marriage a farce. I loved you on our wedding day, and I still love you now. Just not enough.

You remember, do you remember we had a fight few weeks ago and I passed you? If you rushed into marrying me cause you were afraid of the feelings that you have for Eric because you said No,

it wasn’t. Was

and I were over for a long time and I, I felt neglected by him. And he felt guilty for not putting me first. We were never in sync. But you were in love, right? You were in love. That’s the point that I’m trying to make.

You were just tough. You just using me. You loved him. So I was convenient way for you to get over that. I was Your escape wasn’t I, wasn’t I to?

Okay.

I admit it. It’s made fun.

I’m so sorry.

Two minutes on a laptop and you’re convinced I’m lying. Deny it me once. And I know you, there’s a reason why you are knocking back all those drinks. You’ve had a stressful day. Hmm. Right. Here’s how I think your day is going. You need a job. Yeah. But, um, there isn’t really a job out there for a man with your very special, unique talents and the pressure is on because you have to provide for the new.

And, uh, you can’t let her carry the load on her own. Cuz that would be quite, um, humiliating, especially since all the other kayakers men are doing a fine cracking job at it. Yeah. So you put on that very nice suit and you tell the Mrs you are off to start your new job and then you pop out two wild away the hours at a coffee shop or a pub perhaps to make it look like you’re putting in eight.

Of work until you go home. Am I close? You think you’re so damn clever, Gwen, you can be further off base. I am working. Problem is the job that I took is just a wee bit illegal.

Travis been kidnapped. Ava came over here to tell me that, oh dear God, all we have to go on so far is that photo, which was taken a couple of hours ago, and what appears to be his apartment. So my guess is he’s not far from there. I’m so sorry. I mean, who would wanna do this? Who, who? I mean, what could they possibly want from trip?

I don’t know, but I know who’s behind it. E. You think EJ kidnapped? Your son looks that way. Oh, that son of a bitch. I’ll kill him myself. Favor, I’m concerned I haven’t heard back since I text you. My latest negotiating starts. Surely we can get these talks going again since we each have something the other wants.

It’s not in your best interest to ignore. Fine. I won’t. Oh, you are gonna wish you had just paid up a miserable son of a bitch.

Where’s my mother? Where’s my son? You lost your advantage when you kidnap. Now I’ve got as much on you as you’ve got on me hotly. Ooh, look at that. I make you nervous. You’re not used to that. Are you squaring off with someone when the odds aren’t stacked in your favor?

You have met your match and it scares the hell.

Play. Wait, Kayla, listen. Listen. When I heard about this, my first instinct was to confront ej, but that’s not the smart move. Not when trip’s. Safety is our priority. I don’t understand why EJ would do this. He threatened Ava to get her to leave Salem when she came back. I guess this is his way of making good on the threat.

What about Joey? Was he at the apartment when they came and took Trip? Joe’s fine. I talked to him. Apparently they covered their bases by getting trip to call Joe and tell him he went camping. But I think we should keep Joe thinking that, at least for now. I still don’t get it. Why would EJ involve trip in this if this problem is really with Ava?

I think there is something that she’s not telling you.

You wasn’t working for Ava and she had you turn, fuck. Well, at least I know where she went now, after I turned her down, she turned up when I was in hospital, she wanted me to get revenge on ej.

Didn’t expect to see you here or you. Sandra and I just bumped into each other. Yeah, after you were called into work, Victor and Maggie’s dinner fell apart and I didn’t feel like calling it at night yet. So popped in here for a drink and Zander has been filling me in on his new job. Fascinating. I’m sure there’s lots of things he hasn’t even told you about.

I never intended on keeping the truth from you.

The truth is, is I’ve been in denial about my feelings for Nicole for a while. A while is in the entire time we’ve been together. Jada, I honestly believe that Nicole and I were done. No matter what I was feeling, she was married to somebody else and I kept telling myself that I needed to accept it and move on with my life.

And that’s when you got involved with me, I think. I think you’re an incredible woman. I’m not incredible enough to make you forget.

I honestly thought I could go into a new relationship and genuinely give the best of who I am myself, no matter what I felt for Nicole, but I couldn’t. I’m sorry.

Get out.

I said.

That had to hurt because it really hurts saying it, oh enough. Walk away. Just go, no, I’m not gonna walk away. Until you understand that I loved you enough to marry you. I swear, Rafe, I thought if I committed to you and I went all in to be the best wife that I could be for you, that it would end my feelings for Eric once and for all and be the beginning of a lifetime of loving you well.

Wow. Nice try.

Blame you for eating me or you wanna cut me out of your life forever. But I want you to know, and when I said my vows to you, I meant every word and I wanted them to be the last vows that I’d ever said, oh, come on. That’s, if, that’s just when, if wedding vows ever meant anything to you.

That is not fair. Ra. Oh, sure it is. Marriage is just a game to you. No, that is not true. Well, I think that Victor and Lucas would disagree. EJ would disagree twice. Oh, please, RA, don’t do this. What am I doing? Huh? I’m just telling it like it is. I mean, you are who you are. Nicole. I mean, you, you, you even cheated on Eric.

The love of your life was Xander of all people. Why don’t you stop? No, I’m not gonna stop now, baby, cuz I’m on a roll. And while we’re here, why don’t you, why don’t you actually tell me how long you’ve been cheating on me with Eric? I haven’t been cheating.

Yes, Eric and I kissed today, but. It, it just happened. It wasn’t planned. You and I had a fight and Eric and I, we were, we, we were just in the moment. It’s all right. Well, you did what you’ve wanted to do for months now what happened next? Huh? Guessing that led to the conference table? No. No. We stopped right away and we talked.

Did you, what You guys talk about what you wanted each other? Even though, uh, Eric’s got a girlfriend and you have a husband, we acknowledged our feelings for each other and then what we’ve been suppressing for all these months now, God, that’s cuz uh, what’d you guys do next? Did you come up with a plan?

Plan, how you were. Break up with me and Jada as quick as possible so you can get back to your, your feelings.

Well, you got what you wanted, Nicole, and clearly in the end, that’s all that matters to you.

Honestly, I was quite surprised. To hear about the work that Zander’s doing? Quite shocked, actually. Shocked. Oh, why? Well, you know, pharmaceuticals not really something I thought that Zander was ever interested in. And, um, I didn’t even know that he was qualified to work in that, um, particular field, but, All know how very smart Zander is and what a good work ethic he has.

So, um, I think that they are very lucky to have him. Don’t you think? Yeah. I’m very proud of him

hospital and they might need me to come back

for a second there. I thought that you were, tell her. Why didn’t you

honor amongst thieves, I suppose,

and look, despite everything that’s happened, I still care about you thunder, as much as I would just love to boss you and Sarah up. Um, I don’t have it in me to hurt you like that.

Well, thanks. I guess,

so you are free to go about with Ava’s bidding, but as somebody who’s been there and dodged that bullet, All I can say is, well, best of British luck to you.

I’m sure Ava’s holding something back, but she didn’t admit it. Well, we can deal with that later. Right now, trip comes first. I’m gonna get on the first flight to Seattle. Well, you better make sure that there’s two seats because I’m coming with you. Oh, no you’re not. Oh, yes I am. You are not going up against EJ alone.

Wake up, Ava, your lost chance. Give me back my mother. Cause you don’t wanna find out what happens if you say no. All right. Well, you give me back my son first. And then we’ll discuss what it’s gonna cost you to get Susan back. I’m not gonna be strong armed by a piece of trash. Oh. Oh, I see. So you can threaten me, bully me.

Leave me homeless. John, you committed fraud. You used my son. And if not for my extraordinary compassion, you be in prison right now. You conniving Ingrid. Oh, watch it. Ej. You piss me. I’m gonna have to call my associate and tell him to put a bullet in your mother’s head.

Stop. Pastor, you’re lucky. You are lucky. You’re lucky that my father is here. Otherwise, you would’ve wound up in the Crip next to your fake husband.

Sweetness. EJ being behind. This isn’t a reason to come with me. It’s why you should stay home and let you fly solo while I sit here and stare at my phone. Not a chance. No. I’m gonna call John. I’m not gonna do it alone. I’m gonna get Black patch. On the case? No, you cannot put him on the spot like that.

Marlena just got out of the hospital and he needs to be with her. You know, you tell him about Tripp and he is not gonna be able to turn you down. Listen, I don’t even know what I’m walking into. I’m not gonna put you at risk. Have you already forgotten who came to the rescue in Hong Kong when somebody I know.

Was brainwashed, baby. You just got out of the hospital yourself. And I am perfectly fine now and I am not gonna stay behind while my stepson is in grave danger. I love that boy with all my heart. And if you are walking into danger to save his life, I am going to be there to have your back. Yes. There’s no arguing with you.

No, there is not. And let’s come back.

Go find Nicole. I’ll be fine. We haven’t even talked about, I don’t know what I’m going to do about this pregnancy, but don’t worry about it, Eric. It’s not your problem. Not my problem. Jada. I, I care about you in this pregnancy. We need to figure this. What’s there to figure out? You told me who you want to be with.

There’s nothing else to say. Listen, if you’re trying to give me an easy way out, I don’t want it. We need to make decisions together about this baby. All right? And I want to be here for you. I’m not just gonna walk away.

Five, but we’re not gonna come up with any answers tonight.

I’m exhausted. I need to close my eyes and regroup. So please listen to me when I tell you I need you to go.

You, Schumer. I’m.

I should give this back.

I shouldn’t have accepted your ring or your love.

I didn’t deserve it, and I, I didn’t deserve you.

You deserve someone who’s worthy of you, and it’s, it’s not me.

I did everything wrong in this marriage. And you did everything right?

Yeah, except that it wasn’t Eric.

Oh, Erica. Hey. Hey. Are you okay?

I was just with re Oh God. I told him everything. It was awful. I’m sorry. It’s done. So, um, how’s Jada?

Shit? Jada’s pregnant.

Okay. We make this flight. We’ll be in Seattle in five hours. Ah, what about Stephanie? She’s gonna wonder why we dis. Uh, with all that mess with Paul, and this is the last thing she needs to worry about right now. Well, I’ll call her and tell her that we’ve got outta town for a couple days. Okay? We’ll tell Joe and Stephanie everything after we rescue trip.

Come on,

leave, go assess your options. Soon you realize you’re loud. Now get out. Okay. But I’d start getting my money together if I were you. I am running out of patience. But worse comes to worse. I can always send you a lock of Susan’s sayer. Say you have something to remember. Bye. Do you want no idea who you’re with?

No.

This has gotta announce. Spare me the lecture. What lecture? I’m trying to help you face reality. Dammit. Don’t you understand that she’s unbalanced. Pay her off before something happens that you can’t control.

Do they need you to come back in? Nope. I’m good. Wonderful. I’ll, I’ll get you a drinking. No, no. I was, um, I was thinking that we could go to Julie’s place for a late night dinner and you can tell me all about your first day and maybe we can discuss a new living situation. . Let’s get Cody

cool at Call me if you’d like to talk, talk about. Um, yeah, well I’m working at the Spectator now and, um, I said to Zander that I would write a piece about the company he’s working for cuz startups need all the publicity they can get. Right. Consider it, consider it my way of making amends. They, thanks, thanks.

But, uh, that won’t be necessary.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Bonnie went to the shed. Yeah. No, I mean that’s right. We were talking about centerpieces and she said the garden shed. I back. That’s right. What the hell is she doing down there?

Who are you and what are you doing here? I know who you are. You’re, you’re Susan Banks. Oh my God, honey. Who?

A brother with a gun to his head.

Oh, sweetness. Come on. Haven’t we established that I can fend for myself when you’re working late? Yeah, well, I stopped by the pub, had a bullet chatter with your brother and uh, then he insisted on telling me all about his new fly fishing rod. No, I’m not getting any ideas. Okay, listen, I’m just gonna have one beer and head home, so don’t work too hard.

Yeah, I love you.

Hey buddy, haven’t seen you in a long time. Hey, do you mind if I join you? Well, I don’t think I’d be great company. Oh, what’s going on? Nothing good.

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

God, honey, did this to you.

Oh. Oh my goodness. How Kiki did you come back from the dead to save Me? Oh, no, honey. Oh wow. Lord Sent Heavenly me. You. Oh, hardly. I’m Bonnie Kikis. Oh, you Justin Sch new wife. Yeah, that’s, oh my God. Definitely has a specific time. Doesn’t name show. If the Lord didn’t send you, then who did? Coincidence came down for a couple of planters.

Well, I mean, there is no coincidence. It’s the Lord and he’s working in mysterious ways. Okay, speaking of mysterious ways, honey. Who did this to you?

Come on. Trip. Trip. Pick up. Damn it. It went straight to voicemail. I guess EJ wasn’t kidding with that photo. Yeah. Well, he’s gonna find out that he messed with the wrong Vitali. Do you really think EJ is gonna pick up? You know what? It doesn’t matter.

Ej, listen, you son of a bitch, you lay one finger on my son and I will kill you. Well, it’s nice to see that you care about the health and welfare of one of your sons. Really, really? Whining right now. I mean, EJ Damara could kill trip and it’s still, mommy loved him best. Huh? What is something funny? No, I just, I think EJ definitely bested you and you can’t say that you didn’t have it coming,

buddy. Listen, are you sure you’re not just jumping the gun here? I mean, so Eric took pictures of Nicole. That’s work. That doesn’t necessarily mean there’s anything going on, but there is. There is. Look, it’s not just the photo shoots. Okay. Yeah. Ever since Eric came back into town, there’s been this, so Paul, between he and Nicole, are you sure you’re not just being possessive?

I know dudes can do that sometimes, so I’ve. Look, I keep finding them in each other’s arms and there’s always an excuse, but after a while, you know, well, I understand why it’s not exactly ideal for your wife to be working with her ex, but that doesn’t necessarily mean those, uh, explanations aren’t true. I mean, they’re still friends, right?

Good friends, Steve, I believe. But they were always and will continue to be more than friends. Okay. They were divorced, it was messy. Eric took off, he came back, and then Nicole hired him so they can work together, be together, cuz um, they never stopped loving each.

What are we doing? What we’ve been wanting to do for months?

Looks like your precious trip isn’t getting out of this anytime soon.

EJ doesn’t waste any time, does he? I have to call Zander. You don’t wanna do that. Trust me. Would anyone, uh, like a drink Bob? Waiting for Bonnie? I can murder a beer.

What now? Ah, sorry. I got a text. Dam it. This is something emergency at the office and gonna have to call in. I’m so sorry. An emergency. It’s this hour of the. At a pharmaceutical startup, who knows what it could be, but it’s a good sign, right? That they need him

clown. Yeah. I mean, you don’t see that very often, do you? Do you mean like a clown? Like some kind of joker? No, I don’t mean a clown. Like some kind of a joker. I mean a clown with a red nose and a shelter bottle only. He didn’t have a shelter bottle because he needed to tie me up cuz you wanna need his hands free.

Um, But honey, it wasn’t a real clown. Yeah, he just said he was, he’s a man dressed up as a clown. He was in disguise so that I wouldn’t be able to tell who the kidnapper was. Okay. Why would someone wanna kidnap you? You know what? I just don’t know. I don’t, but you know what? The man, the clown, the man dressed up as a clown.

Well, he has a Bosh co name, the Ring mesh. You heard the cold? No, no, I made it up. I’m very creative and being tied up because really boring. So could you just tell me where we are in Keri’s Garden? She, why are you here at the garden? Chicago Nu. I came down to get a couple of lanterns from Maggie and Victor’s 11th anniversary.

Oh, that my, I gotta tell you, wherever this club was, he sure as hell know how to tie a mouth. Thanks for the compliment.

So this pull between them, have you spoken to Nicole about it? Yeah, the knife. And what’d she say? She denied it. But you don’t believe her like that, Steve, that’s not the point. She doesn’t want to admit it to herself, let alone to me she, she doesn’t want to feel this way. She just, Dude, I know it’s hard, but maybe you just need to trust her.

That’s good advice. Yeah, exactly what I said to Jada. All right, Jada. So does she think, um, Eric and Nicole are.

Well, she, uh, certainly gives every indication that she believes that. Yeah. Because every time she sees Eric and Nicole together, she finds a way to tell me all about it. So you think Jada is serious about Eric? I dunno, I don’t know that. Well, I think she thinks that it’s serious. Um, uh, she always talks about, uh, Eric being God’s gift to the world.

Pretty sure he feels that way. Wow. Well, Jada has a tough exterior, but she is still pretty young. She’s new to town. She’s got no. It’s got a new job, man. I hope this whole thing doesn’t end in end in tears. Yeah. All the way around. We, we haven’t been fighting this for months. We , we just lost our heads for a all.

I didn’t. I kissed you just now because I wanted to. That’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now. I mean, every time I’ve seen you actually, and every time I fight it, it just gets stronger.

Eric, I want you, and from the way you kiss me, just.

I think you want me too, Nicole. We were once married. We’re always going to be attracted to one another. This is more than just an attraction. The way I feel about you now is the same way I felt when we got married and years before that. Can you honestly say we just lost our heads and there’s not a hell of a lot more to it.

You got married and you, you just got home from the courthouse and I was at your, your doorway. Do you remember? I remember

I was there because I wanted to tell you how I felt about.

Just after even Pauling his wedding, it just seemed like we should just talk. But that’s when I found out you and Rafa just got married, so my feelings didn’t really matter anymore. Wait, no, that, that’s, that’s not true. It’s fine. It’s just with briefing. I’m.

Fuck you and, and Jada. I mean, it’s a thing, but it it’s not what we have. She knows it. Believe me. She knows it. What are you saying to me? That’s your break with Jada and you break up with Raven. We just let the chips fall. They may. I mean, Jada and I, we haven’t, we haven’t made any promises or anything like that.

I mean, we’re getting to know each other really. But Nicole, you’re married. It matters That really matters.

Okay? Now, I’m not saying you’re right or you’re. But if you’re this jacked up about it, I think you need to tell Nicole how you’re feeling. I did. No, no. What I just heard you say was that you asked her how she’s feeling. What you need to do is tell her what you just told me. Okay. Not the advice I was expecting from you.

Well, I know Kayla and I have had more than our share of ups and downs over the years. And one thing I know is that you can’t solve a problem by ignoring it. Right? Yeah. Well, point taken. Point taken. Hmm. So can we change the subject? How about those cups? Yeah. Hey, Jed. Oh, fancy seeing you here. What? Well, I, I meant, uh, because you live here.

Oh, yeah. Great. Are you okay? Uh, actually, I, uh, I got some work things to go over with Rafe. Okay, well, I’ll leave you too. Hang in there buddy. All right. Okay. You.

So what’s going on?

Give that to me. Are you really gonna let EJ get away with this? You’re just gonna give up 20 million. I don’t care about the money. I only care about trip. Yeah, we know that. The important thing is EJ knows that, can’t you see? He’s bluffing. He’s not gonna hurt trip. This might be photoshopped for all we.

But if you give Susan up, you give up any leverage that you have. Okay? And then what am I supposed to do then? Nothing. Nothing. What if you are wrong? What if you are wrong? And EJ does hurt trip, mom. You are reacting like EJ wants you to react. He wants you emotional, not rational. This is my son we are talking about.

Yes. And because he’s your son, you’re e quivering mess. You kidnapped E J’s mother. Did he fall apart? No, he regrouped and he went straight for your Achilles heel. Because EJ is ruthless. That is what you need to be right now. We both know that you’re up to that particular task.

It’s up to you. Are you going to beat EJ at his own game or cave like a house of card?

You get away from her? I tell. I will say back. Sit that down. Stay back. Listen lady. You do not want me to lose my tender. If you don’t wanna be stirred like a male, hey, get outta here. Not gonna happen. How?

Xander has a very important new job. Sarah. Tell Mathusla, hear all about it. He’s an executive at redneck. Why would rednecks need an executive? No. Red Max. It’s a pharmaceutical startup and he’s in upper management in charge of the entire sales department. I, if it’s so major, why haven’t I heard of it?

So you kidnapping me now too. I bet your boss didn’t count on a two for one deal, did he or she? This isn’t gonna work, you know? Do me a favor.

Who did you decide to call someone who can make this all go away?

Steve Johnson. Steve Hit’s. I need to see you. It’s an emergency

Now you’re playing the game.

Something’s going on at the station. Uh, not exactly. Okay. But something’s bothering you. I just saw Nicole and Eric at Peace Black. Oh yeah. I know. I was there when he showed. You were there. Mm-hmm. . I went to talk to Nicole about the pictures you told me about, and um, turned into another big fight. I’m sorry.

Yeah. Turns out I was all ticked off about Nicole modeling four, Eric, but it only got better from there because I found out that Nicole was gonna be in pictures with Eric on the cover of Bella. You were kidding. No. No wonder you got in a big fight. Yeah. Um, I’m tired, so. Okay. Yeah. Well, obviously you feel the same way about this whole thing as Ivy Jada.

Hey, Jada. Jada. Hey Jada. Jay,

Bri and I have been fighting. So much lately, and I hate it. I hate it because I know the kind of man he is. He’s, he’s not jealous, he’s not possessive. He just wants to know the truth, and there’s part of him that knows that I’m keeping something from him. Oh, God.

And the last thing I wanna do is hurt him. And I love him. I do. And this, this should be a good marriage, but it’s not. It’s not because I, oh God. And he was so right about this. He was so right. I married him. I married him. Sorry, I could forget about. It is such a horrible thing to do to him, and I did it to a man and he deserves so much better.

No wonder if you wanted to forget about me. Look at the way I treated you when we were married. What kind of man would marry a woman like you and then run for the hills?

I live with so much regret. I’m sorry

we really screwed things up, didn’t we? All the pain

and after all that, I, I may still love you.

I always will. I think.

Eric, I just, I had to say this to you, but if you don’t wanna be with me,

it’ll hurt. Oh God. Will it hurt?

I’ll accept it.

But no matter what I, I need to end things with RA because it’s not fair to treat him like a consolation fries, because every time I look at him, all I can think about is being with you.

No, I house is away. I,

I know no one can hear me. It’s okay. It’s okay. Maggie knew I was coming down here. Sooner or later, someone’s gonna find us. Rednecks sounds made up to me. You’ve really never heard of it. How could he? It’s a startup. You know, 90% of all startups fail. Stop that right now. Not to worry. Most of those failures didn’t have Senator Cook in the key management.

You, uncle Victor, is your faith in me that keeps me going.

Happy anniversary, Maggie. Oh, thank you. Many, many, many. I’m gonna think that one over. So what was the emergency? All taken care of. Hmm. Oh, now, now it’s my turn. The hospital , yes, but the ER is really understaffed, so here a happy anniversary. Mom. Victor, I’m sorry. That’s okay. Don’t wait up. Well, I guess it’s just gonna be the four of us for dinner.

Maybe we should just call the whole thing off. No, no. You and Victor are gonna have dinner together and start to work out two differences. Let the healing begin and Bonnie and I will, what is keeping her? She should have been back by now. She’s been abducted by aliens. Well, I’m gonna go and look for her.

Thanks for seeing me. What’s going on? Trip told me EJ forced you to leave town. Yeah, well, I came back. I don’t like being pushed around. I never knew that about you. Okay. But EJ somehow found out that I broke the deal. So what’d he do? Threatened to send you to prison? Oh. It is much worse than that.

Son.

Should I go?

If I stay, you know what that means?

I think we both know what it means

and

it’s like you and I gotta do the right thing. I can’t stay with Jada, especially when my heart belongs to someone else.

As, as angry as I was with you. I never stop loving you. Thank you,

Eric. This time we, you, no, we are not. You gotta screw it up, I promise. Yeah, let’s not.

It’s ra what?

Hey ra. What’s going on Eric? Listen. I’m at the hospital. You gotta get down here. It’s Jada.

Well, thanks Joe. Yeah. No, no, everything’s fine. I just want to check in with you. Love you too. All right.

Trip told Joe he was going camping. Yeah, right with a gun at his head.

All right. It looks like this picture was taken in his apartment in Seattle. I don’t think EJ would take it much further than that. Wait a minute, this doesn’t make sense. So EJ is mad at you for coming back to town. He kidnapped trip. That’s overkill and it’s way too risky. Hey, what’d you do, Ava? Nothing. I don’t believe you, but I don’t have time to drag it out of you.

Where are you going? Where do you think I’m gonna get EJ to release trip and then I’m gonna shove his teeth down his throat. Okay. No, Steve, you can’t do that, do you? You cannot go talk to him. You just can’t. Why the hell not Ava

have my phone? Wait. Damn it. Oh. God put some water in my pocket when that jerk grabbed me. Did you see my phone anywhere? Hey, come on. Where do I get food? Maybe Xander’s right? Maybe Bonnie did fall. I’m gonna go look for her. The hell you are. It’s dark out there. Xander. Why don’t you, uh, offer to go? I was just going to, I.

Oh, Maggie did, did I just hear your phone? I think maybe you got a text. What? Oh, oh, it’s from Bonnie. Something came up, uh, with Mimi. She’s on her way to Chicago. Happy anniversary. Oh, well. At least we know she’s all right. Ugh. Can’t breathe again. Los Xander looks like it’s just gonna be the three of us. Oh, absolutely not.

It’s your anniversary. You don’t need a third wheel. You wouldn’t be Sandra, please stay. Have a nice romantic dinner, Sarah, and I’ll be in touch soon. We’ll set something up. Sandra, wait. Um, fix her. Don’t you wanna congratulate Sander on his new job, or do you wanna spend the night in the garden shift?

Sander, congratulations on your new job. Don’t be so enthused. It was fine. Maggie. Heartwarming. Thank you Uncle Victor. Have a lovely dinner. I’ll walk you out. Huh?

At least you broke the ice. You did. Thanks for trying. Oh, he’ll come around and even if the evening it didn’t turn out as planned, things are starting to look up for you and Sarah.

Appreciate her. What happened? What’s wrong? Sarah’s examining her now. Uh, we were at the pub talking and she’s fainted. What room is she? Sarah? Hi. She, uh, well, she’s much better. She’s alert and talking. Okay. Why, why does she faint? I’m thinking it’s low blood sugar. She said she hadn’t eaten much today. Um, but we drew some blood, so we should have some.

Can I see her? Yeah. Yeah.

I told Cook there would only be two of us for dinner. You know, after all these years. I still get tickled when I say cook. There’ll just be two for dinner.

Oh, I think he was a little disappointed. I’m not. Hmm. I can tell. Well, so sue me if I went you old to myself on our anniversary, Barry, you was the best thing that ever happened to me. Then I think this would be a very good time for you to echo the sentiment. It would only go to your head, which is already swollen enough, , even if it is the truth.

You know what we are, Maggie? Mm-hmm. Lucky. Mm. Damn lucky. Yeah.

You just thought I’d check on you too,

just as well, even though no one can hear you. Like I told you, people know I’m here.

You sent Maggie a text. You’ve been called away. Family emergency. So thinking up and made me, I’m on my way to Chicago. Happy anniversary. What? Are you gonna keep us in here forever? Look. As soon as our son pays up, you’ll both be out of here. Hopefully there’ll be any moment. Now you’re not going to get away with this.

It’s so stupid of you to deal with the deras. You know what? And the Cga family is now gonna come after you. Your life. Stupid is gonna suck in more ways than you can imagine. How do you know about Mimi? You know me. You know me.

Why don’t you want me to talk to e j? Because he’s furious with me. You know how vindictive he is, and if he finds out that I told you, who knows what he is gonna do to Chad, what is it? You’re not telling me nothing. You’re a. Steve, what the hell? Does it matter why or how this happened? Please just go find trip.

Please. Look, our son, he is a good guy. He’s just like his father and he doesn’t deserve this, Steve. He doesn’t deserve it. Of course, I’m gonna find our son and I’m gonna bring him back. Thank you. Thank you.

I was still with Eric in the office when you called. Uh, I just wanted to see if Jada was doing all right. Yeah, well, uh, Sarah said it was just low blood sugar. Oh. Eric’s in there with her.

Can I get you anything? I mean, do you want some water? I’m fine.

It’s a good thing that re was there when he fainted. Yeah, he was there. There. Jada, is there something wrong?

What’s, uh, what’s going on? Well, I wanted some privacy. Yeah. Um, to say I was sorry about.

I was making a big deal outta nothing. Mean the cover shoot. Like it’s just work, right?

No, Rafe, um, you are right.

It’s, it’s more than that. I, uh,

Just say it.

I, uh,

I wanna be with Eric.

Okay. So, Before I went to go see Rafe, I went somewhere else.

Hi. Oh, that was fast. Um, the lab hasn’t finished your full blood work panel yet, but I did get some preliminary results and I think I know why you painted. Really? Um, what is it? Eric, um, I think I should speak to Jada in private. Oh, um, sorry. No, it’s, it’s okay. I, I want him here.

Are you sure? Okay.

Oh my.

I’m pregnant.

Dam it, Eva, answer the phone.

Ah, youj won’t stop calling. He must be terrified for his mother’s. Good. Let him suffer. I want that son of a bitch to experience the same type of pain he made my mother feel.

I’m so proud of you, mom.

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

Oh, aj, there you are. I have good news. Anna was able to get in touch with the designer of her sacred Crystal Heart. Crystal Heart, yes. The one that Susan accidentally broke. Annas commissioned a new one, so Susan can be the sigh of relief. You can also tell your mother that it’s safe to come out behind in.

Mother isn’t hiding from Hannah tummy. She’s been kidnapped.

I brought you some dinner. Oh, sorry. It’s nothing fancy. Oof.

You know, I don’t want your next sandwich. Ronald McDonald. I got a whole plate full of catfish, nooks. Just wait for me at my son Elvis’s house. So why don’t you just let me go. Sorry, I can’t do that. Oh, but of course you can. My Elvis, he’s loaded. He’ll give you anything you want. Trust me.

I want you back with your son just as much as you want to be there. Cause you have to be patient. . It’s easy for you to say, Mr. Clown I, you’re not the one just tied up and sitting around with a bunch of gardening tools in horse manure. I do apologize for the setting. Why are you doing this? Mc clowns, you are supposed to bring Hess and joy, not fear and child you to be ashamed of yourself.

Mr. Clown, what kind of a miserable person does such a thing?

Thank you. There you go. . So tell me about Xander’s new job. Well, he was hired by a pharmaceutical startup called, uh, rednecks full-time. Mm-hmm. . Yes. I’m very proud of him. He worked really hard to get this job. Good friend him. Yeah. If I’m being honest, we really need the money. I didn’t realize things were.

Well, Xander racked up quite the bill at the Salem in, and I’m still only working part-time at the hospital until they can confirm that I am no longer suffering from what Kristen did to me. Hey, I’m sorry that things been tough. Oh no. It’s okay. Xander and I are in this together, so we will land on our feet.

I have no doubt. Thank you. And there are perks to working part. I get to do house calls. came back from one at Brady’s. Whoa. Is he sick? Nope. No. It, um, it was for Rachel. How was she? She’s okay. She had a major tummy ache, which I diagnosed as an over indulgence of Halloween candy. . . Yeah. I’ve suffered from that more than one time in my life.

Me too. . I’m poor.

How was it? You mean seeing and Rachel? Yeah. Uh, truthfully, I don’t think I’m ever gonna recover from losing her. I know what you’re thinking. It’s hard for me too. Yeah. And also, The Alexander to blame for it. Am I right? Yeah, yeah. You are.

Sushi delivery . Hi. Hey, you. I figured you’d be working through dinner, so I thought you might like some raw fish and maybe some company. Yes, please. Both counts. Come on, . So how was your night? Oh man. Pretty much craziness. Ever since the election. Why? What’s going on? You didn’t hear? No, I mean I’ve, I’ve been swamped mostly approving marketing copy for our upcoming collection.

Right. Yeah. Yeah. That and your, your new role, what do you mean? I mean, I heard your moonlighting is Arab’s top model.

Fuck. Hey York,

have you heard about Paulina Price? Yes. She got elected governor and I’d like to thank my vote. Helped. Mm-hmm. , that’s the old news I’m talking about after the election. What do you mean? Maggie? Her daughter got arrested for murder, knowing that, I don’t understand. Lonnie was arrested last summer for murder?

No, no, no. Not Lonnie, the other daughter. Shut down. Yes, that’s the murder. Oh, how awful. And on the night her mother was elected governor. Oh, Helena must be just beside herself. It’s mother’s worst nightmare. Let me tell you. I, I’m. Xander, he’s your husband now, not to mention I’m the one who encouraged you to forgive him after switching those babies.

Yeah, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t still be angry with him. That would make me a hypocrite. Don’t you think that would make you human, painfully human? What? Sandra did hurt us both very deeply. I didn’t think I was ever gonna be able to get. I’m glad you did, for your sake. Well, you’re the reason that I was able to let go of that pain and anger.

You helped me see the kind of man that Vander’s capable of being a good and decent man and that I am very proud to call my husband.

Are you proud of your chef, Mr. Cloud? Hmm? You proud of your. What, why are you doing this to me? What? What? What’s in it for you? Huh? Ask for me. Are you a man or are you a clown?

EJ again, no Alexander. The answer is call either. All these men keep trying to tell you what to do. Yeah. Including you. I make my own decisions. Hello? What took you so long to answer. Will you relax? Relax. It’s easy for you to save. How much long do I have to hold onto her? Just a little while longer. And how long is a little while?

The woman is scared and hungry. Okay. So I feed her, I tried that. All she wants is catfish nuggets. Well, that’s not my problem, actually. Is your problem, Ava? You said this would be quick and easy. You get the money We give her back. No harm, no foul. Okay. That’s still the plan. Just calm. Stay the course. Stop trying to handle me, Eva.

I have a life, a future, and if you don’t finish this, I will. Oh wait. Hey, hey. What does that mean? It means get me my money or I’ll let Susan Banks go. Okay. Listen, Zander. Zander.

My mother, she tried to warn me that someone was after me, but I thought, I thought it was Johnny John. Why would Johnny be after you? He was very angry when I sent a away. Oh. And apparently she’s even angrier because I exposed her for the fraud. She really is. Ever since I proved that she wasn’t actually married to our late brother, she’s been lying and.

Get her revenge and she’s using your mother to exact it. I should have locked up that mongrel when I had the chance, put her ass in Statesville, and now my poor mother is the one paying the price.

Okay. You’re upset that I got pulled into that Bella photo shoot. I, I just would’ve liked to have heard about it from you and not one of my detectives. One of your detectives who happens to be dating Eric? No agenda there. Okay. Okay. Listen to me. Jada did not do anything wrong. This, this is just another example of a lack of communication between you and me, honey.

I was gonna tell you. Okay. Why didn’t you? Well, because it, it just happened. Something came up with one of the models that we hired, and so Alex Kakkis asked me to step in. Mm-hmm. and, and, but you’re absolutely right. I should have told you first thing and now,

Now there is something that I want you to hear from me. Okay. Actually, something that I wanna show you.

What. Why? Why am I looking at a photo of my wife draped all over her ex-husband? Like I said, this was Alex’s idea, and at first it was supposed to be a. Brady and me, and then he thought it would be better if it was Eric. Why? Why would it be better? Well, because according to Alex, I didn’t have any chemistry with Brady.

Oh, that is great. Great. So you and Eric, you guys are just crackling with it, huh? No, I mean, it’s all subjective, right? Who has chemistry? Who doesn’t? But Alex side, didn’t he? Great? Of course he did. You know what? Because everyone in this damn town is seen. So why don’t you, why don’t you just stop trying to hide from me the fact that you and.

Still have feelings for each other.

You know? You are kind of an inspiration. I am. Yeah. You’re an example of forgiveness, perseverance. I mean, after everything you and Xander have gone through, you’ve never stopped loving him. Well, except for when it wasn’t me. That doesn’t count. . Well, thank you for ruling on that. Mm-hmm. . What about you? What about me, son?

I know how long it took for you to get over. Nicole, how’s it going with Jada? It’s early. Mm-hmm. . I like being around her. I think she would say the same thing about me. Mm. Well, well see. That’s pretty important. Enjoying your partner’s company can come in handy if you’re ever, I don’t know. Sharing a roach infested hotel room, huh?

Hmm. , nothing. Nevermind. Listen, I must admit, I still have a little anger towards Sander, even though I’m working very hard. If I’m forgiveness for him. I appreciate that. I’m spent a lifetime preaching forgiveness, telling people that it’s not a one-time thing. It’s a, it’s a continuing process. Well, If it’s any help, I can promise that Xander is truly changed.

He’s not the same man that let us believe in other couple’s baby belonged to us. I know that he will never do something that terrible again. Good news, you should be going home soon. Oh, thank the Lord for small favors. Oh, did you get in touch with my Elvis? Is he gonna send a cowry after? You didn’t concern yourself with the details.

Yeah. I just have to ask you one thing, Mr. Clam, how do you live with yourself? I bet your mom was just so disappointed in you. My mother is a drunken train wreck, so I really don’t give a damn what she thinks. Sure. And there’s gotta be showing that matters to you. You got a wife, I mean, how does she feel about her man being a dirty, low down kidnapper?

I can’t believe that Xander is making Sarah move to a Fleabag hotel because Victor called him a loser. Uh, he’s a proud man . Proud Schmid. Victor’s mean to me all the time. And I put up with cranky mats because, hello? The amenities here. Hello? Yeah. Well, you know how stubborn teriyaki man can be. Well, do I ever, I’ll tell you.

Victor and Justin had an hour long stare down over which movie to watch on Peacock

I’m sorry, Maggie, I, I shouldn’t be bragging on your husband. You know, I just think he’s a hoop. No, it’s okay. I know you put up with a lot from him. Do you know it’s my anniversary time. Oh, honey. Really? Yeah, I married Victor 11 years ago to the day, Maggie. Yeah. Congratulations. Are you, gosh, what are you guys doing to celebrate?

Oh, just Victor and I were just gonna just, just be together if, were you not doing anything with family? Well, I can’t, I can’t see my daughter. Or my son-in-law because of Xander’s, ridiculous. Qui with Victor. That’s not right. No, no, no, no, no. Those two need to make a move on. Well, they can’t because they won’t even talk to each other.

You know what, mag pie, I think you should let Bon Bon handle this one. Well, that’s very sweet of you to care so much, but

do you really think you can fix this? I know I can. I’ll get this family back on track. You just watch and see

has this vital woman, she made a ransom demand. Ah, no idea. She told me to await further. Ah, she’s tying with you. You know, we should get the police involved. I don’t think that’s a good idea. Tommy, listen, I’m aware that you hate Ray Fernandez, but if we could use the department’s resources, I’m sure that he’d be more than willing to help, especially after what Ava did to him.

Maybe you are right. Perhaps I should bring Reef into this

is my mother. All right. Oh, well. Hello to you too, ej. Yeah, she’s fine for now. You ready to hear my demands?

Why the hell is it taking you so long to get back to me? Oh, I would watch my tone if I were you. Well that is if you ever want your kids to see their southern FRA granny again, I swear to you, if you do anything to harm my mother, there will be no safe place on a FU to hide from me. AJ wanna antagonize her.

The hell I don’t. You realize you’re in no position to make any threats. We are the ones making the threats. I’m the one calling the shots. Just tell me what you want. I thought you’d never. Well, in exchange for the safe return of your mother, you are going to give me 20 million.

Oh. You do have a wife. I didn’t say that. Oh, you didn’t have to. I know things. Oh yeah. I was warned. You’re psychic . I am . Did you make you nervous? I believe in all that nonsense. Oh, I assure you missed a clown. It most certainly is not non. You see, the universe has blessed me with the gift of Second Son, and that’s how you knew I was married.

Now tell me you’re wearing your wedding ring.

The one and only. Is everything okay with Mom and Victor? Well, um, not exactly what, uh, what’s wrong? Well, honey, I hate to be the bear of bad news, but your mom is in a right state. Did she say why? Well, you do know today is your mom on Victor’s wedding anniversary, right? Oh my God, I totally forgot. Yeah.

Well I figured with all the fussing and fighting between Xander and Victor that it had well, slept your mind. She told you about that. Well, honey, we live in the same house. It’s . Kinda hard to miss. Um, but tonight you and Victor and Xander are all gonna put that behind you. Okay, you’re gonna grab your hunky husband and you’re gonna come up here to the mansion for dinner.

Oh, well, I was, um, just about to order dinner for one at the pub and, and Xander’s working late. Honey, you could have Roman Brady’s warmed up chowder any day tonight. You and Zander are dining with family. It is high time to carry out this plant gathered under one roof, and your mother and Victor’s anniversary is the perfect time to do it.

Okay? Okay. Got it. Good. See you later. Bye-Bye.

Hey, do you decide what you want? Um, well, uh, change of. Looks like I’m going to be playing referee all night, honey. It was just a photo shoot. I know what it was. Nicole, I’m not sure you do. I, I mean, you’re assuming that Eric and I wanted to be on the cover together, which we did not. And like I said, this was Alex’s idea.

He insisted, why are you looking at me like. Because I wish that you would respect me enough to stop trying to gaslight me. What? Stop. I wouldn’t do that. You’re acting like I am not seeing what is right in front of me. Could you just listen to me? Please? Please. Okay. Eric and I were told to. Act like we were attracted to each other, and that’s what we did.

Modeling is acting. I was playing a role, honey, what you are seeing here is just pictures. That’s it. Picture, yeah. Pictures. Pictures, yeah. Pictures of my wife looking like she wants to tear the clothes off of R’s husband.

Look, I, I knew doing the photo shoot was a bad idea. I should have trusted my instinct.

Why didn’t you?

Because. Alex wouldn’t take no for an answer, and I got caught up in the excitement of modeling. Again. You know what this, this isn’t even about the pictures.

It’s about us. Our marriage,

this stupid photo shoots just forces us to face the real issue.

There’s no issue.

I need you to be honest with me.

I need you to be honest with yourself.

This thing between you and Harry never really went away, did it?

How many times do I have to tell you, Eric is in my past? You are my present and my future. I have a husband and Eric has a girlfriend, and there’s, there’s nothing romantic between us anymore. I mean, we’re friends. Yes, we work together. Yes, but that’s it. End of story.

I hear you, bud, about what?

But it sounds to me like you’re not just trying to convince me. You’re trying to convince yourself.

What is this all about? Well, it’s about the dinner party that I am throwing in honor of your. Really? Yes. Really the dinner party to which Zander and Sarah will be attending.

I mean, I just told Sarah that it was important to you and she agreed that the occasion was very important, so she’ll talk Sandra into it.

Oh, you really are a miracle. I’m so impressed. . So is Justin attending? Um, well, unfortunately, no. He is in Arizona visiting the twins. But on the bright side, when Sandra and Victor are reunited, they will give this family so much more to celebrate. We’re all back together again. Right. Oh, well, let’s just hope the boys behave themselves tonight.

We’ll get him back on track. . Alright. You got me? Yeah. I’m married. . So does Mrs. Clown know what you’re up to? Just leave my wife out of this.

No, no. Mr. Clown, I can’t do that. In fact, you know what I’m gonna send her. Message right now. What? Who I need you, Mrs. Clown, I you, to reach out to your wayward husband, make him stop his shameful and wicked wage and that’s enough. I’m putting the gag back in

me. You.

Do you really think I’m gonna let you steal even more money from my family than you already have? Oh, I didn’t realize you were the type of man that valued money more than your mother’s life. My mother is priceless to me. Okay, then prove it. Pay the 20 mil. You get your mommy back, and we can all go on with our lives.

Just like that. Just like that. You should be grateful. I’m not asking for more. I’ll give you your money. So how do we do this? What do we need for the exchange? . Oh, and risk. Risk. One of your hired goons taking me out on site. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no. Not a chance. You are gonna wire the funds into an offshore account and I will text you the info.

And then what? Well, once I see that the been transferred, I’ll tell you where you can collect. Mommy. Weirdest.

I’ve never been so proud. I’ve never loved you more.

Please, please.

Hello darling. Well, finally you answered, I was about to send out a search party. Sorry, Pam. I’m still stuck at the office. I guess they really wanted to hit the ground running here at Rednecks. What’s up? Uh, well, Bonnie just called, she wants us to come to dinner tonight at the Mansion. It’s Mom and Victor’s anniversary.

Oh, Sarah, I, uh, I know, I know, I know, I know. I know that you are still mad at Victor, but Bonnie said that Mom is really bummed about the Rift in the family, and it would just mean the absolute world to her and to me. So please, baby. Please, please, please. Will you come?

Since it’s from Maggie, you are the sweetest. How far are you from the mansion? Not far at all, as it turns out. Oh, well, perfect. I will see you there.

Well, I’m gonna go upstairs and change, and I’m gonna check on Victor and we don’t wanna start the evening with him in a lousy mood because he can’t find his cuff links. ? No, you check on Moneybags. I check on Cook. I wanna thank you Bonnie so much. It means a lot. Oh Maggie, it’s my pleasure. . You’re so sweet.

Listen, be before we go. Do what we need to do. Okay. I actually have a question for you. Yes. Um, you remember when Justin and I were first dating, you had me over to the house for dinner? Yeah, I do. Okay. I remember coming in and sitting on the table, the two. Charming stainless steel lanterns. Now I checked it out.

11th anniversary is steel. So I was thinking they would make the perfect centerpiece for our table tonight. Oh, do you know, that’s a lovely idea. I, um, I’m Missy, I keep them in the back, in the gardening shed. Oh, okay. Okay. I’ll, I’ll run out there. I’ll grab him. I’ve seen him in. Uh, bye . Bye. It’s done now.

Going back now. I kind of wish you made EJ sweat a little longer, but I’m happy for you. Pretty soon you’ll be swimming in cash and then you can go back to being the power player you always meant to be. Aren’t you glad you listened to your good son?

So how harsh you have to come up with the train. A million. I can help you move assets around if you like. Thank you, Tony. I appreciate the offer, but that won’t be necessary. You are going to pay it, aren’t you? I’m going to do whatever it takes to bring my mother home.

Look, I understand why you’re upset and why you reacted the way you did to those pictures, but let’s just go home and talk about it. I thought we just did.

What more is there to say?

Did you see these photos? I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to interrupt. Oh, no, no, no, no. I was just leaving. We both were. We’re about to head home. No, actually, I’m gonna go. I’m gonna go and get a beer alone. Besides, I’m sure the two of you have a lot of catching up. Cause I mean, this incredible photo shoot. Ra, no, listen, I’m not interested in what you have to say.

Ra, wait, please wait. Damnit. Hi. This I’m Go talk to No. No. Okay. Did you see how upset he was going after him is only gonna make things worse? Did you tell him it’s not what he thinks it is? Of course, I.

He’s not stupid. Eric, Nicole, what do you mean? Oh, come on. He sees what’s going on.

The last time I saw Bonnie, she was heading out to the gardening shed.

Hey, now where would I be if I were.

Let me notice. As soon as it’s taken care of,

he did it. You wired around some money to Ava’s account? Not exactly. What does that mean? Not exactly.

Well that must be EJ letting me know that you just made the transfer . That didn’t take long. Do you see the kind of respect you command when you listen to me?

No, no, no, no, no, no. What’s wrong?

What are you saying, Nicole?

Alex? Chloe Rafe, everyone sees it. She’s what? The connection between us, the chemistry, it’s still there. You can’t deny it. Not in those photos, none. When we’re in the same room together,

we don’t have to do this right now. Listen, emotions are high. All.

Let’s just not say anything that we wish we wouldn’t have said.

Like what? Something honest

you. Are you tired of fighting it? And I know I am. I’ve been fighting it since the day you came back to town. Lying to myself pretending that I’m over you, pretending that I’m not jealous of you and Jada. I’m trying to do the right thing. I’m just trying to, I’m trying to give you the space and I try to respect your marriage.

I started, I started seeing somebody. No matter what I do, I always find myself like where I started. Same place with you.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

A good table tonight. It down will Better. Please go.

Hi

Chad. Paulina just gave me the rest of the night off, so you’re a free man. Great. I’m glad I could have you ready? Yes, just in time for our reservation bistro. Thanks again for your help, Chad. Couldn’t have done it.

Hmm. Enjoy your victory while you can Ms. Price.

Well, I have to say this has got to rate as one of the best days in my life. . I feel the same way and that is why we are about to have a great celebration. Yes, champagne included my treat. . Hi Sean. Oh well. Oh, almost my, so serious detective with something wrong. Yeah. As a matter of fact, there is, I need Chanel to come down the station.

Well, why, what forward? I have a warrant for her arrest? Uh, is this some kind of joke? Afraid it’s not. She now the pre, you’re under arrest and suspicion of murder.

Aren’t you thirsty? I am having second thoughts actually. What? It is Too late for that. Oh, come on Jackson. It’s gonna be a fun night. I promise. Not just fun but memorable. We’ll laugh. We’ll cry. Happy tears. Of course. We’ll take goofy selfies and post them to our socials. No we won’t. Fine, then we will laugh and cry and eat the Chile sea bass here to die for.

It’s very expensive, by the way. $46. But the sky’s the limit. Again with that look. What, what? Just wanna make sure you actually brought your wallet. Of course. I brought my wallet. Why would you even ask that? Just in case we having, uh, an oopsy moment when the check comes. Oh, ye of little faith. Prepare to have your shallow preconceptions of me shattered Jackson Kakkis.

See, I got an advance in my salary. It’s bringing a hole in my pocket. Well, look who it is. Oh God. What are you? What are you doing here? Did you bring him here as some kind of threat? He’s headed in for me since the night you were stabbed. Relax, Leo. I didn’t come here for you.

I came here for her.

Where’s your partner in crime? Oh, you mean my partner in crime fighting? Yeah. Despite your best efforts, our client won our election and is off celebrating. Well, you’re drowning your sorrows with martini sorrows. Oh, no, no, no honey. I’m the one who’s celebrating. But you lost. Good boy. You are way behind with times.

Oh, looking for someone? Uh, yeah, I thought my husband would be here. Oh, you shouldn’t be long. If you just wanna wait. I just sent him out with an arrest warrant. Wish he should be serving right about. Now

murder. What? No. There there must be some kind of mistake. No. No. Afraid there isn’t a mistake. It’s gonna be okay, baby. Well, what is this all about, John? Honestly, I don’t know. It’s the DA’s idea. So Trask put you up to this. Yeah. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney. You cannot afford one for you. No Ms. Price. Madam Governor, like is this true? Do you have any comments?

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

This is one defeat. You can’t spin, counselor, you have nothing left to blackmail. Poll price with not that Stephanie gave her the original. Yeah, that’s what Alex did with it. Didn’t realize he was moonlighting for sj p r. They’re friends. Friends, right. Anyway, Alex stole my file, so I stole it right back from him.

What are you talking about? I owe it on prize’s new system, Leo Stark one, and only thanks to him I got access into Paulina’s Safe and the information that rightfully belonged to me.

I knew you didn’t come here to palm me then why were you just hiding behind Sunny like a human shield. I was just trying to lighten the moment. I mean, you’re not mad at me anymore about what happened to your brother? Leo, I don’t know how to break this to you, but I don’t think about you at all, especially when I have much, much more pleasant things to dwell on.

Oh, charmer, he sure is. Well, we would invite you to join us, but Sunny and I have lots to talk about. Mm, no we don’t. Yes we do. No, we don’t. Yes, we do. Hey, how if he gets too handsy, I will. Thanks. You know, your brother could afford to show more respect. Oh, yeah. And why would he? Why would he do that? Isn’t it obvious I am a key member of our new governor’s team?

I’d go as far as to say I’ve made myself indispensable to her. You may wanna record the news tonight. Your husband’s bound to be all over the coverage. Coverage of what? Wait, who did he go arrest? I am so glad you asked. You see, camera crews are gonna be there to document Paulina Price’s, historic victory, but they’re also gonna bear witness.

So the governor elects very first scandal. Wait. This is about Paul . My guess is she won’t even make it to inauguration day before she has to resign. You’ve sent Sean to arrest Paul for what? Sadly, Ms. Price is not the subject of the warrant. But our new governor has worked really hard to cover up the heinous crime committed by her daughter.

Remove those handcuffs. Now, this is an outrage. What is happening? Oh, don’t you worry. Don’t you worry, baby. Is it? Let her go. You get away from my baby. I can’t do that. I’m sorry. Here, Colleen, do not interfere. Okay, well, I’m going to interfere this. This doesn’t make any sense. Murder Uncle Sean. There’s no way.

Governor Elect Price. Did you know there was a warrant for your daughter? Mayor Carver, do you have any comment on your stepdaughter’s arrest? Who was the victim? All right, come on, come on. Let’s get you down. Mr. Priest, Chanel, do you have any comment? She has no comment, but I can tell you this is a mistake and a travesty.

Mama, I thought, look, no, baby, don’t you say, don’t you say anything. Don’t you say anything. I promise you this will all, this will all be okay. Chanel give.

Hi, Holly. Holly. Let’s go this way. Let’s go this way. Come on, come on.

Uh, well, I guess a toast to your boss to winning the election. Cheers. Okay. What’s with the lousy mood? All of a sudden, tell your snarky brothers comment, hurt my feelings. You have feeling. Ha ha. Hilarious. This is a serious question, which I’m not gonna dignify with an answer. Look, I know I’ve screwed up in the past, but I’m doing my damnedest to make amends to the people I’ve heard trying to make a decent living, trying to be a productive member of the Salem community, and he.

Treats me like I’m gum on the bottom of his shoe. You can’t blame him for being a little curious as to why he invited me out here. As a matter of fact, I am too. I told you why. If you hadn’t recognized Clyde Weston’s cologne and identified him as your attacker, I’d be in prison right now. Great. I’m very glad that the right person was punished.

But you didn’t have to take me out to dinner. I know. I didn’t have to. I wanted to and we have a history after all. You gone what? What should I not bring up our past that we used to be married? It is kind of a big deal. Yes, but it doesn’t make the case that you think it does. Leo. Sing as you know, uh, you blackmailed me.

So using the term married to describe what we were makes me a bit queasy. I only blackmailed you after you and will thought you killed me and rolled my body up in a rug to dispose of fine. None of that would’ve happened if you hadn’t gone after me and Will in the first place.

Well, this is fun. Yes. We haven’t even worked at appetizers yet.

Is it mirror? Are things getting tense over there? You know, I’m not sure Sonny even knows why he’s here. It’s not a date isn’t. No. No. God no. Sunny and will are solid, but hey, let’s just, let’s ignore them. Let’s focus on our big night. And it is a big night. Mm-hmm. , isn’t it? Mm-hmm. . Ah. Hearing those election results felt even better than I thought it would.

You made that happen. Oh, I was a small part. Would you please, please stop being so humble. Okay. A medium sized part. And so were you, thank you again for hitting that file from Sloan. I know you felt like you were betraying her. If that’s all it took to garnish a date with you, I’d do it all over again. I am sorry, and I take that back.

I’m not gonna be that guy again. What guy? The guy that just comes on too strong and pushes way too hard. Calling this a date would be, um, presumptuous maybe, but. What if it is a day?

So you still think I’m bluffing fine, but don’t come crying to me whenever all hell breaks loose. Which should be any moment now, by the way.

Okay, so you have the. What’s your number?

You wanna buy the file back? Name me a price. You’ll have it tonight. I guess. I can’t blame you for thinking that Paulina can buy her way out of this one, but you humiliated me. You used someone that I cared about to get what you wanted,

so you forced me to up the. What are you talking about? It means that Paul is about to get what’s coming to her, and she will have no one to blame, but you and Stephanie,

I guess this Samir Carver, but I want you to get security to escort the reporters away from Ms. Price’s door. Yes. Thank you. Thank you. Hey, why did you drag me in here when you know Chanel needs me? Those reporters out there are the reason you are going to be swamped. We’re just lucky your office is right off the square.

I’m so lucky. Look, I’m worried about unless you are, but this isn’t about her. She was arrested for murder, but this story isn’t about her. This is about you. The governor elect those reporters out there, they are going to ask you questions. You don’t have the answers for ’em, or maybe you do.

You’re arresting Chanel. For what? You know that warrant your husband is currently serving? I don’t think I’ve ever had an easier time having a judge sign off on be. Oh, nice work Detective. How’d it go? You know exactly how it went. I’ve got uniforms out front trying to keep the reporters at bay. Oh, I’m sure they have so many questions and I hope all those photographers got you.

Good side. Mr. Pree, uh, you know why you’re here, right? Actually, Chanel, you don’t have to say anything. Let’s get her down to booking so I can start questioning her. Yeah. Sean, what is going on? I, I don’t know. I don’t know all the details, but I’ll fill you in later. Okay. Come on.

Okay, look. Can we start over? Leo, why don’t we just get the check and leave the check For what? We haven’t ordered anything. No, but we got the drinks and actually waiter. Sunny. Stop. Stop. The last thing I wanted to do tonight was.

Looking back, I’m sure there are things that we both regret. That we both regret. No, I don’t regret a damn thing. Okay, fine. Well, there are things that I regret, but we also have had our fun, right? No. No, we did not. Well, it’s never been boring. Can you at least say that?

Okay. I’ll give you that one. I just want us to get along. Thank God. What? It’s not that I don’t think you want to get along Leo, but you always have some ulterior motive, an angle, and if by chance you are looking for another sugar daddy, I wanna make it very, very clear that this ring I’m wearing, it means a lot to me.

You think I asked you out to try and seduce you and take your money? I’m not not thinking it Well, I am beyond hurt and insulted, which is something I’m very used. Besides, I don’t need a sugar daddy. I have a great job. Now then what do you want? Friendship. Seriously? You say that like it’s some insane fantasy.

Like, who does Leo Stark think he is trying to have friends? Okay. No, that’s, that’s not what I meant. Yes it is. Yes it is. It’s fine.

The truth is I don’t have very many friends. It’s distressing. Yes, there’s Gwenny whom I adore, but I don’t have a single gay male friend in Salem. Not one. And you want me to be the one? Well, Sonny, you’re successful, you’re popular, you’re funny, which is very important to me because I’m hilarious and have been told many times that I should do standup.

My point is maybe you have no idea what it’s like to be lonely, but I’ll give you a window. It sucks.

What are you not telling me? Paulina Abraham. I heard Chanel say something. I know what you’re thinking. That your wife is keeping yet another secret from you that thought had entered my. I really believed I had this under control. And what? Under control? Oh, look, Paulina. Paulina, I want to help you, but I can’t help you if I don’t know what this is.

And there’s no time to waste if Chanel is going to be charged with murder. So, Please for the sake of your daughter.

I was being blackmailed for something Chanel did when she was younger and the blackmailer said I had to pay up or, or the police would find out the truth. I hired Stephanie Johnson to handle it. That thought she was your campaign manager? Yes. Yes, but it was more than that. The proof was in a file and Stephanie, she, she got it back for me and, you know, the, the blackmail was over.

Chanel was safe. At least I thought she was. So what did you do with this file? Well, I put it somewhere where no one could get to it. I just, I don’t even understand how this all got out of control. Who is it? Who was blackmailing you? Sloan Peterson. That witch. What did you do? Only would I had been threatening to do from the very beginning if I didn’t get what I was asking for.

You went to the cops even better, I’m sure you won’t be surprised to hear that Da Trask was very, very interested in the contents of that file.

Come on. Come on, answer.

Pharrell, you’d be willing to to date, because up until now everything you’ve said has been pretty much the opposite. I. And I had my reasons, but maybe it’s time to rethink those reasons. That is the best news that I’ve heard all year long.

It’s Chad,

do you need to take that? I’ll, I’ll give you some privacy. Um, No, no. I’m here with you. Notifications are silenced. Look at you. Look at me. Election’s over. Hmm. I deserve a night without alerts. Work is done for the day. You sure? Yeah. Whenever it is. It can wait. Right now I have something more important to focus on.

Cheers to that

Sam Bell. Allie, I was just trying to call you. Have you seen Chanel? Yeah, Sean just brought her through. I tried to follow, but I fight through all these reporters. Is she, is she locked up already? Oh no, she’s still here in the station. They just took her down to booking. Gosh, she must be so scared and there’s nothing I can do.

Do you know what this is about? No. No. Paulina had just finished her victory speech. Everything was great, and then all of a sudden Sean showed up with a warrant, said the charges were murder. Wait, what? Murder? How can that be?

Okay. Now turn to the right.

Sounds like you’re getting a lot of alerts. Something in the news. Dana Ste. Why aren’t you picking up? No, I guess she’s busy. I’ll know where she is. Good luck. You’ll need it.

This girl. I don’t know how she did it, but somehow Sloan got into my safe and she stole back the evidence. How’d she get her hands on that evidence in the first place? Well, she’s representing some mystery clients. You wouldn’t tell me who and, and, and, uh, the evidence was just sitting in. I plan to shred everything, but I haven’t had a moment alone since I got my hands on it.

So if the DA was able to secure a warrant yes. For Chanel’s arrest, that means Melinda Trask has that file right now. Oh, and she hates me, says I strong armed her into giving Lonnie that plea. So you think she’s taking it out on Chanel? Oh, I know she is. Oh my poor baby. I need to go see my daughter. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Until we have a plan. Until we have a plan, we have to keep our distance from post reporters. What we need to sit here. We need to do something. Look, I. One step at a time. We cannot help Chanel until we have a plan, and until you tell me what she did.

Stephanie, Chad, why are you doing here? Why are you ignoring my calls? Hey, we’re in the middle of something here, bud. Right? Um, sorry, I’m, I’m sorry to interrupt. I, I, I really am, but you need to check your phone. Why, what’s going on?

You’re serious, aren’t you? About wanting a friend. Why would I joke about that? Because literally everything is a joke to you, Leo. You enjoy nothing more than making someone look like a total idiot. That’s how you see me. Is there any other way? So I like to keep people laughing because, like I said, being funny.

It’s my greatest talent. And yes, I enjoy scandalizing people by being outrageous because it keeps them at a distance. But you know where that gets you right here with somebody thinking that you’re playing a prank when you’re trying to reveal a piece of your heart to.

I’m sorry. It’s fine. It’s my own fault. I act like a clown. I don’t expect people to look beneath the surface level. I just didn’t expect you to be like everybody else.

When did this happen? Right after Paulina gave her victory. How did this happen? I’m still trying to sort all that out, but I just ran into, uh, Toone and she was all too happy to let me know what she did. She got the documents back and she used them. Wait, but that’s impossible. But how did she get him out?

Polina Safe

said he helped. So bitch. Oh, Alex, what are you doing? Hey, get up. Huh? Get up. What? What did you do? You little rat.

I wanna help Chanel so bad, but I don’t even know who to call. I’ve never felt this helpless. It’s gonna be okay girl. Help any way I can.

Where Sonnel is she? Okay? Transcos are in interrogation. She wants to be the one to do the initial. Chanel’s by herself. That can’t be good. Well, this is what trash does. Make the arrest publicly, catch the suspect off guard, rush them through booking. She wants Chanel to be scared and desperate, so she’ll say whatever she needs to say to get outta that room.

Sean, you have to help her please.

It’s just you and me right now. Miss D. And, and I need you to understand that the truth is your only way through this, the truth. All right, let’s stop this right now. Excuse me, but you’re not allowed to be in here Chanel. Do you want representation? Huh? Do you want my help? Do you want me to be your lawyer?

Yes. Good. This interrogation at, so.

You might wanna think twice about that. Chanel Mrs. Brady’s been hanging around the station tonight. Do you really wanna trust your fate in the hands of an ambulance chaser? Chanel has stated her preference for counsel, so anything you wanna say to her, you say through me, it’s not too late to change your mind.

She’s my lawyer now. There you go, Ms. Trus. I’d like a few minutes to confer with my client, so if you wouldn’t mind, or even if you do mind,

Allie was really afraid that you were gonna be in here alone. But listen, you are. Alone anymore.

Detective, don’t you have an arrest report to write up? I’ll get to it. Why are you doing this? I’m just doing my job, Allie. But if you know something, then you can help your friend by making a statement. Just leave it alone. Okay. I’m just trying to be helpful by arresting Chanel in front of half the town.

Chanel’s not doing herself any favors in there. Okay. You might think that letting Bell take over is a good idea, but I’m just trying to get to the truth. Well, I don’t know anything, and even if I did, I wouldn’t tell you my girlfriend is not a murderer and you know this because, because I would know like, I’m sorry, Allie, but that’s what we call misplaced loyalty.

Right. She’s been keeping a very big secret from you from every. That’s all gonna come out now.

Alex, take it easy. Just tell me what you did, Leo. Tell me what you did. Just tell me who you’re working for. Don’t lie. I don’t lie. Call Le Price. Get off me. Admit it. Just admit it. What did you do? Wait, wait. How am I supposed to admit anything? I don’t know what you’re talking about. Let him go, Alice. Yeah, please.

It’s okay. Glad I wasn’t being paranoid before. Hey, Can we just, what’s going on? Okay. Leo, did Sloan Peterson go to Paulina’s office today? What? Answer the question. What? I, yeah. I, I, I owe Sloan some money, but what does my business with Sloan have Anything to do with you? It doesn’t, except when your business is stabbing.

Our friends in the back,

I just can’t believe that Chanel’s been carrying this. Burden around for so long. You too. Oh, babe, I’m, I’m so sorry for keeping this from you, and please don’t, don’t hate me for lying to you yet again.

I.

And I get why, oh, you kept this hidden. This wasn’t your secret to tell. You understand. I’ll do anything I can to help you and your daughter. Thank you. Thank you, Abraham. Thank you.

Kicking the DA out of here doesn’t mean that she’s going away for good. She’s gonna wanna sit with you and she’s gonna have a lot of tough questions, but the good news is I’ll be here to make sure you don’t say anything that’s gonna hurt yourself. Okay. Thank you. Now, Allie said that your arrest came as a surprise to.

was it a surprise to you, or did you see it coming? No, I, I thought it was all over. That Mama was helping, helping make it go away? Well, that she had this file, the one that Ms. Trask has now. What’s in the file? I am supposed to tell you everything. Actually, you know, it’s probably better if you don’t give me the details.

The police still have to show me what they have, and it’s probably better that I see that without any preconceptions. They have that file, then they have everything they need. So you’ve seen what’s in that file. Mama, show me a copy. Okay. Chanel, I want you to understand that in a court of law, it’s not always about the.

It’s about what they can prove is true. Okay.

What documents I, I don’t understand, and what does this have to do with Paul and Hiss daughter? Just tell us what happened when Sloane was in the office. Why is this important? Just tell them everything. Leo, I already told you. She showed up because she wanted money. Did you give it to her? Well, it wasn’t that simple.

I didn’t have any cash. Paul had promised me in advance and I wanted to get rid of Sloan, so, so you opened Paulina Safe, the combination was just sitting there. You opened it in front of Sloan. Well, how else was I supposed to get the money out? I took what I needed and I closed it right back up. Obviously not.

She said you helped her. What? No, no, I didn’t help her do anything. Did you turn your back for even a second? No.

Oh geez. Answer the question, Leo,

maybe. Okay. You’re gonna have to do better than that. Well, I, I had to count the money. Right. And we know that staying focused is in my strong suit, neither’s Math. Well, congratulations, Leo, you just destroyed your boss’s career and her daughter’s life.

Uh huh. Well, thank you for the update.

They’ve cleared out most of the reporters. Just a few stragglers left, hoping to catch a sound bite from you. Hmm. Which they’ll twist and use against my Chanel. Well, don’t say anything for now. Why? Need to get down to the station. Look, why don’t we, why don’t we call down there and check. It it We’ll see if Ali knows what’s going on, huh?

Yes. Good idea. Good idea. Oh,

Helen El, are you at the station? I’m here. Where are you? Um, in my office. Trying to avoid the press. How’s my baby? Have you seen her? No. She’s in the interrogation. Oh my God. She’s all alone in there. No, she’s not alone. Um, my Aunt Bell’s in there. I think she’s taking on the case. Oh, thank God. Thank God.

Well, if you see her, you tell her to hold on. Okay. Tell her mama is coming.

So for now, you just stay quiet and you let me do all the talking. Okay. Oh, it’s Allie. She’s out in the station and she said she just spoke to your mom and she’s on her way soon. I can’t believe this happened on our election night. Well, they obviously planned it that way.

I trust that you and your shiny new client are getting to know each other, but I still have questions that need to be. Well, they’ll have to wait. It’s been a long night and I still need to see your evidence . Okay, you wanna stall? Fine, but since it’s too late for an arraignment, it’s also too late for a bail hearing, meaning your client is gonna be our guest for the night downstairs in the lockup.

Detective, please escort our newest guest down to recorders for the evening. Uh, Chanel, everything is gonna be okay, Sean. We’ll keep you safe and I’ll have you out in the morning. Okay, here we go.

Best Cuffer before you walk her down there as befits a murder suspect.

I really got Paul and his daughter in trouble, huh? Yeah. Looks pretty bad or kid. Well, Alex seems to think whatever happened that I did it on purpose. And did you What? I would never do anything to Paulina or Chanel. If Sloan stole something from Paulina Safe, she did it while I wasn’t looking. You believe me, right.

God help me. But yeah. Yeah, I do.

I can’t stay here any longer. I need to be with my daughter. Look, I know that. And I would do my best to shield you from those reporters. So are you ready for this? Oh, I have to be. We’ll get through it together.

All right. Let’s go.

Well, now we know Sloane used Leo to get that file. Are we sure he wasn’t working for her? I don’t know. So we should probably get started on this right away. Yeah. I’m sorry, Alex, but I have to go. My phone is going to explode if I don’t at least release a statement and I need to go find Paulina. Yeah, of course.

Oh, we’ll do this again another time. I’d like that a lot

you. Yeah, let’s go.

Congratulations, madam Governor Elect, Mr. Mayor, you both won hard fought elections. But I wonder at what price? What are you doing here? Are you here to glute something like that? Paulina, you know, it would’ve been so much cheaper for you just to pay me when I asked, but now the whole world is gonna know what Chanel did and how you covered it up.

Well, here’s what I. That you are a miserable, heartless cow. Now get outta my way. I’ve gotta go see my daughter

snow. Oh my God. I’m so sorry. Don’t touch the prisoner. Oh, she’s not a prisoner detective. This contact is inappropriate. Whatever you need, I’m here for you. Okay. I love. I love you too, Chelsea Brady. Take her away.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Aren’t you thirsty? I am having second thoughts actually. What? It is Too late for that. Oh, come on Jackson. It’s gonna be a fun night. I promise. Not just fun but memorable. We’ll laugh. We’ll cry. Happy tears. Of course. We’ll take goofy selfies and post them to our socials. No, we. Fine. Then we will laugh and cry and eat the Chilean sea bass here to die for.

It’s very expensive, by the way. $46. But this sky’s the limit baby. Again with that. Look what? Look, just wanna make sure you actually brought your wallet. Of course. I brought my wallet. Why would you even ask that? Just in case we having, uh, an Oopsy moment when the check. Oh ye of little faith prepared to have your shallow preconceptions of me shattered Jackson Kakkis.

See, I got an advance in my salary. It’s bringing a hold in my pocket. Well, look who it is. Oh God. What are you? What are you doing here? Did you bring him here as some kind of threat? He’s headed in for me since the night you were stabbed. Relax, Leo. I didn’t come here for you.

I came here for her.

Where’s your partner in crime? Oh, you mean my partner in crime fighting? Yeah. Despite your best effort. It’s our client won our election and is off celebrating. Well, you’re drowning your sorrows with martini sorrows. Oh, no, no, no honey. I’m the one who’s celebrating. But you lost. Good boy. You are way behind with times.

Oh, looking for someone? Uh, yeah, I thought my husband would be here. Oh, you shouldn’t be long. If you just wanna wait. I just sent him out with an arrest warrant. Wish he should be serving right about. Now

murder? What? No. There there must be some kind of mistake. No. No. Afraid there isn’t a mistake. It’s gonna be okay, baby. Well, what is this all about, John? Honestly, I don’t know. It was the DA’s idea. So trash put you up to this. Yeah. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

You have the right to, an attorney cannot afford one. I will provide for you. No Ms. Price and Adam. Governor, like is this true? Do you have any comments?

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

This is one defeat. You can’t spin, counselor, you have nothing left to blackmail. Poll price with not that Stephanie gave her the original. Yeah. That’s what Alex did with it. Didn’t realize he was moonlighting for sj p r. They’re friends. Friends, right. Anyway, Alex stole my file, so I stole it right back from him.

What you talking about? I owe it on a surprises new system, Leo Stark, but one and only thanks to him I got access into Pauline’s Safe and the information that rightfully belonged to.

I knew you didn’t come here to pumble me, then why were you just hiding behind sunny like a human shield? I was just trying to lighten the moment. I mean, you’re not mad at me anymore about what happened to your brother, right? Leo? I don’t know how to break this to you, but I don’t think about you at all, especially when I have much, much more pleasant things to dwell on.

Oh, he’s a sharmer. He sure is. Well, we would invite you to join us, but Sunny and I have lots to talk about. Mm-hmm. No, we don’t. Yes we do. No, we don’t. Yes we do. Hey, holler. If it gets too handsy, I will. Thanks. You know, your brother could afford to show more respect. Oh yeah. And why would he do that? Why would he do that?

Isn’t it obvious I am a key member of our new governor’s? I’d go as far as to say I’ve made myself indispensable to her. You may wanna record the news tonight. Your husband’s bound to be all over the coverage. Coverage of what? Wait. Who did he go arrest? I am so glad you asked. You see, camera crews are gonna be there to document Paulina Price’s historic victory, but they’re also gonna bear witness to the governor.

Elect’s very first scandal. Wait. This is about Paul. My guess is she won’t even make it to inauguration day before she has to resign. You’ve sent Sean to arrest Paul for what? Sadly, Ms. Price is not the subject of the warrant. But our new governor has worked really hard to cover up the heinous crime committed by her daughter.

Remove those handcuffs. Now. This is an outrage. You look what is happening. Oh, don’t you worry. Don’t you worry, baby. Is it? Let her go. You get away from my baby. I can’t do that. I’m sorry. Do not interfere. Okay, well, I’m going to interfere this. This doesn’t make any sense. Murder Uncle Sean. There’s no way. I don’t.

Governor Elect Price. Did you know there was a warrant for your daughter’s arrest? Mayor Carver, do you have any comment on your stepdaughter’s arrest? Who was the victim? All right, come on, come on. Let’s get you down. Mr. Priest, Chanel, do you have any comment? She has no comment, but I tell you this. Steak and a travesty.

Mama, I thought, look, no, baby, don’t you say, don’t you say anything. Don’t you say anything. I promise you this will all, this will all be okay. Come,

let’s go. Let’s go this way.

Uh, well, I guess a toast to your boss to winning the election. Cheers. Okay. What’s with the lousy mood? All of a sudden? Oh, your snarky brothers comment hurt my feelings. You have feelings? Haha. Hilarious. This is a serious question, which I’m not gonna dignify with an. Look, I know I’ve screwed up in the past, but I’m doing my damnedest to make amends to the people I’ve heard trying to make a decent living, trying to be a productive member of the Salem community, and he treats me like I’m gum on the bottom of his shoe.

You can’t blame him for being a little curious as to why he invited me out here. As a matter of fact, I am too. I told you why. If you hadn’t recognized Clyde Weston’s cologne and identified him as your attacker, I’d be in prison right now. I’m very glad that the right person was punished. But you didn’t have to take me out to dinner.

I know. I didn’t have to. I wanted to. And we have a history after all. My God, what? What should I not bring up our past that we used to be married? It is kind of a big deal. Yes. But it doesn’t make the case that you think it does. Leo. Sing as you know. Uh, You blackmailed me. So using the term married to describe what we were makes me a bit queasy.

I only blackmailed you after you and Will thought you killed me and rolled my body up in a rug to dispose of. I, none of that would’ve happened if you hadn’t gone after me and Will in the first place.

Well, this is fun. Yes. We haven’t been working with appetizers yet.

Is it mirror? Are things getting tense over there? You know, I’m not sure Sonny even knows why he’s here. It’s not a date, isn’t it? No. No. God, no. Sonny and Will are solid, but hey, let’s just, let’s ignore them. Let’s focus on our big night. Hmm. And it is a big night. Mm-hmm. , isn’t it? Mm-hmm. . Ah. Hearing those election results felt even better than I thought it would.

You made that happen. Oh, I was a small part. Would you please, please stop being so humble. Okay. A medium sized part. And so were you, thank you again for hitting that file from Sloan. I know you felt like you were betraying her. If that’s all it took to garnish a date with you, I’d do it all over again. I’m sorry.

And I take that back. I’m not gonna be that guy. What guy? The guy that just comes on too strong and pushes way too hard. Calling this a date would be, um, presumptuous maybe. But what if it is a date?

So you still think I’m bluffing fine, but don’t come crying to me whenever all hell breaks loose. Which should be any moment now, by the way.

Okay, so you have the fire. What’s your number?

You wanna buy the file back? Name me a price. You’ll have it tonight. I guess I can’t blame you for thinking that Paulina can buy her way out of this one, but you humiliated me. You used someone that I cared about to get what you wanted,

so you forced me to up the stakes. What are you talking about? It means that Paul is about to get what’s coming. And she will have no one to blame, but you and Stephanie?

Yes. This is Amir Carver. I want you to get security to escort the reporters away from Ms. Price’s door. Yes. Thank you. Thank you. And why did you drag me in here when you know Chanel needs me? Those reporters out there are the reason you are going to be swamped. We’re just lucky your office is right off the square.

I’m so lucky. Look, I’m worried about unless you are, but this isn’t about her. She was arrested for murder. But this story isn’t about her. This is about you, the governor elect. Those reporters out there, they are going to ask you questions. You don’t have the answers for ’em, or maybe you do.

You’re arresting Chanel. For what? No. That warrant your husband is currently serving. I don’t think I’ve ever had an easier time having a judge sign off on fell. Oh, nice work Detective. How’d it go? You know exactly how it went. I’ve got uniforms out front trying to keep the reporters at bay. Oh, I’m sure they have so many questions and I hope all those photographers got you.

Good side. Mr. Pree, uh, you know why you’re here, right? Actually, Chanel, you don’t have to say anything. Let’s get her down to booking so I can start questioning her. Yeah. Sean, what is going on? I, I don’t know. I don’t know all the details, but I’ll fill you in later. Okay. Come on.

Okay, look, can we start over? Leo, why don’t we just get the check on the, the check for what? We haven’t ordered anything, but we got the drinks and actually waiter, sunny. Stop. Stop. The last thing I wanted to do tonight is.

Looking back, I’m sure there are things that we both regret. That we both regret. No, I don’t regret a damn thing. Okay, fine. Well, there are things that I regret, but we also have had our fun, right? No. No, we did not. Well, it’s never been boring. Can you at least say that?

Okay. I’ll give you that one. I just want us to get along. Thank God. What? It’s not that I don’t think you want to get along Leo, but you always have some ulterior motive, an angle, and if by chance you are looking for another sugar daddy, I wanna make it very, very clear that this ring I’m wearing, it means a lot to me.

You think I asked you out to try and seduce you and take your money? I’m not not thinking it Well, I am beyond hurt and insulted, which is something I’m very used. Besides, I don’t need a sugar daddy. I have a great job. Now then what do you want? Friendship. Seriously? You say that like it’s some insane fantasy.

Like, who does Leo Stark think he is trying to have friends? Okay. No, that’s, that’s not what I meant. Yes it is. Yes it is. It’s fine.

The truth is I don’t have very many friends. It’s distressing. Yes, there’s Gwenny whom I adore, but I don’t have a single gay male friend in Salem. Not one. And you want me to be the one? Well, Sonny, you’re successful, you’re popular, you’re funny, which is very important to me because I’m hilarious and have been told many times that I should do standup.

My point is maybe you have no idea what it’s like to be lonely, but I’ll give you a window. It sucks.

What are you not telling me? Paulina Abraham. I heard Schnell say something. I know what you’re thinking, that you, your wife is keeping yet another secret from you that thought had entered my mind. I really believed I had this under control. And what? Under control? Oh, look, Paulina Paul, I want to help you, but I can’t help you if I don’t know what this is.

And there’s no time to waste if Chanel is going to be charged with murder. So, Please for the sake of your daughter.

I was being blackmailed for something Chanel did when she was younger and the blackmailer said I had to pay up or the police would find out the truth. I hired Stephanie Johnson to handle it. That how she was your campaign manager? Yes, yes, but it was more than that. The proof was in a file and Stephanie, she, she got it back for me and, you know, the, the blackmail was over.

She know it was safe. At least I thought she was. So what did you do with this file? Well, I put it somewhere where no one could get to it. I just, I don’t even understand how this all got out of control. Who is it? Who was blackmailing you? Sloan Peterson. That witch. What did you do? Only would I had been threatening to do from the very beginning if I didn’t get what I was asking for.

You went to the cops even better, I’m sure you won’t be surprised to hear that Da Trask was very, very interested in the contents of that file.

Come on. Come on. Answer.

For real, you’d be willing to to date, because up until now, everything you’ve said has been pretty much the opposite. I know, and I had my reasons, but maybe it’s time to rethink those reasons. That is the best news that I’ve. All year long.

uh, it’s Chad,

do you need to take that? I’ll, I’ll give you some privacy. Um, no, no. I’m here with you. Notifications are silenced. Look at you. Look at me. Election’s over. Hmm. I deserve a night without alerts. Work is done for the day. Are you sure? Yeah. Whatever it is, it can wait. And right now I have something more important to focus on.

Cheers to that

Allie, I was just trying to call you. Have you seen Chanel? Yeah, Sean just brought her through. I tried to follow, but I fight through all these reporters. Is she, is she locked up already? Oh no, she’s still here in the station. They just took her down to booking. Gosh, she must be so scared and there’s nothing I can do to help.

Do you know what this is about? No, no. Paul had just finished her victory speech. Everything was great, and then all of a sudden Sean showed up with a warrant, said the charges were murder. Wait, what Murder. H, how can that be?

Okay, now turn to the right.

Sounds like you’re getting a lot of alerts. Something in the news. Damn it, Stefan, why aren’t you picking up? No, I guess she’s. I’ll know where she is. Good luck. You’ll need it.

This girl, I don’t know how she did it, but somehow Sloan got into my safe and she stole back the evidence. How’d she get her hands on that evidence in the first place? Well, she’s representing some mystery client. She wouldn’t tell me. And, and, and, uh, the evidence was just sitting in the safe. I plan to shred everything, but I haven’t had a moment alone since I got my hands on it.

So if the DA was able to secure a warrant yes. For Chanel’s arrest, that means Melinda Trask has that file right now. Oh. And she hates me. Says I strong armed her into given Lonnie that plea deal. So you think she’s still get it out on Chanel? Oh, I know she is. Oh my poor baby. I need to go see my daughter.

No, no, no, no, no, no. Until we have a. Until we have a plan, we have to keep our distance from those reporters. What? We can’t just sit here, we need to do something. Look, I know that one step at a time, we cannot help Chanel until we have a plan and until you tell me what she did,

Stephanie. Chad, why are you doing here? Why are you ignoring my calls? Hey, we’re in the middle of something here, bud. Right? Um, sorry, I’m, I’m sorry to interrupt. I, I, I really am. But you need to check your phone. Why? What’s going on?

You serious? Aren’t you about wanting a. Why would I joke about that? Because literally everything is a joke to you, Leo. You enjoy nothing more than making someone look like a total idiot. That’s how you see me. Is there any other way? So I like to keep people laughing because, like I said, being funny. It’s my greatest talent.

And yes, I enjoy scandalizing people by being outrageous because it keeps them at a distance. But you know where that gets you right here with somebody thinking that you’re playing a prank when you’re trying to reveal a piece of your heart to,

oh, I’m sorry. It’s fine. It’s my own fault. I act like a clown. I don’t expect people to look beneath the surface level. I just didn’t expect you to be like everybody else.

When did this happen? Right after Paulina gave her victory speech. How did this happen? I’m still trying to sort all of that out, but I just ran into, uh, to Sloan and she was all too happy to let me know what she did. She got the documents back and she used them. Wait, but that’s impossible. But how did she get him outta PUIs safe?

Sloan said he.

So bitch. Oh, Alex, what are you doing? Hey, get up. Huh? Get up. What? What did you do? You little rat.

I wanna help Chanel so bad, but I don’t even know who to call. I’ve never felt this helpless. It’s gonna be okay. Yeah. Help. Anyway, I, I’ll help any way I can.

Where Stella is she? Okay. Transcos are in interrogation. She wants to be the one to do the initial. Chanel’s by herself. That can’t be good. Well, this is what trash does. Make the arrest publicly, catch the suspect off guard, rush them through booking. She wants Chanel to be scared and desperate, so she’ll say whatever she needs to say to get outta that room.

Sean, you have to help her please.

It’s just you and me right now. Miss D. And, and I need you to understand that the truth is your only way through this, the truth. All right, let’s stop this right now. Excuse me, but you’re not allowed to be in here Chanel. Do you want representation? Huh? Do you want my help? Do you want me to be your lawyer?

Yes. Good. This interrogation at, so.

You might wanna think twice about that. Chanel Mrs. Brady’s been hanging around the station tonight. Do you really wanna trust your fate in the hands of an ambulance chaser? Chanel has stated her preference for counsel, so anything you wanna say to her, you say through me, it’s not too late to change your mind.

She’s my lawyer. There you go, Ms. Trask. I’d like a few minutes to confer with my client, so if you wouldn’t mind, or even if you do mind,

Allie was really afraid that you were gonna be in here alone. But listen, you are not alone anymore.

Detective, don’t you have an arrest report to write up? I’ll get to it. Why are you doing this? I’m just doing my job, Allie. But if you know something, then you can help your friend by making a statement. Leave over. Okay. I’m just trying to be helpful by arresting Chanel in front of half the town. Chanel’s not doing herself any favors in there.

Okay. You might think that letting Bell take over is a good idea, but I’m just trying to get to the truth. Well, I don’t know anything, and even if I did, I wouldn’t tell you my girlfriend is not a murderer and you know this because? Because I would. Like, I’m sorry, Allie, but that’s what we call misplaced loyalty.

Right? She’s been keeping a very big secret from you, from everyone. That’s all gonna come out now.

Well, Alex, take it easy. Just tell me what you did, Leo. Tell me what you did. Just tell me who you’re working for. Don’t lie. I don’t lie. Call Lena Price. Get off me. Admit it. Just admit it. What did you do? Wait, wait. How am I supposed to admit anything? I don’t know what you’re talking about. Let him go, Alice.

Yeah, please. It’s.

Glad I wasn’t being paranoid before. Hey, what’s, can we just, what’s going on? Okay. Leo, did Sloan Peterson go to Paulina’s office today? What? Answer the question. What? I, yeah. I, I, I owe Sloan some money, but what does my business with Sloan have Anything to do with you? It doesn’t, except when your business is stabbing.

Our friends in the back.

I just can’t believe that Chanel’s been carrying this burden around for so long. You too. Oh, babe, I, I’m so sorry for keeping this from you, and please don’t, don’t hate me for lying to you yet again.

I can never hate you. And I get, oh, you kept this hidden. This wasn’t your secret to tell. You understand. I’ll do anything I can to help you and your daughter. Thank you. Thank you, Abraham. Thank you.

Kicking the DA out of here doesn’t mean that she’s going away for good. She’s gonna wanna sit with you and she’s gonna have a lot of tough questions, but the good news is I’ll be here to make sure you don’t say anything that’s gonna hurt yourself. Okay. Thank you. Now, Allie said that your arrest came as a surprise to.

was it a surprise to you, or did you see it coming? No, I, I thought it was all over and Mama was helping, helping make it go away? Well, that she had this file, the one that Ms. Trask has now. What’s in the file? I am supposed to tell you everything. Actually, you know, it’s probably better if you don’t give me the details.

The police still have to show me what they have, and it’s probably better that I see that without any preconceptions. If they have that file, then they have everything they need. So you’ve seen what’s in that file. Mama, show me a copy. Okay. Chanel, I want you to understand that in a court of law, it’s not always about the.

It’s about what they can prove is true. Okay.

What documents I, I don’t understand, and what does this have to do with Paulina’s daughter? Just tell us what happened when Sloane was in the office. Why is this important? Tell them everything. Leo, I already told you she showed up because she wanted money. Did you give it to her? Well, it wasn’t that simple.

I didn’t have any cash. Paul had promised me in advance and I wanted to get rid of Sloan, so, so you opened Paulina Safe, the combination was just sitting there. You opened it in front of Sloan. Well, how else was I supposed to get the money out? I took what I needed and I closed it right back up. Obviously not.

She said you helped her. What? No, no, I didn’t help her do anything. Did you turn your back for even a second? No.

Oh geez. Answer the question, Leo,

maybe. Okay. You’re gonna have to do better than that. Well, I, I had to count the money. Right. And we know that staying focused is in my strong suit, neither’s Math. Well, congratulations, Leo, you just destroyed your boss’s career and her daughter’s life.

Uh huh. Well, thank you for the update.

They’ve cleared out most of the reporters. Just a few stragglers left, hoping to catch a sound bite from you. Hmm. Which they’ll twist and use against my Chanel. Well, don’t say anything for now. I need to get down to the station. I look. Why don’t we, why don’t we call down there and check. It it We’ll see if Ali knows what’s going on, huh?

Yes. Good idea. Good idea. Oh,

Helena El, are you at the station? I’m here. Where are you? Um, in my office. Trying to avoid the press. How’s my baby? Have you seen her? No. She’s in the interrogation. Oh my God. She’s all alone in there. No, she’s not alone. Um, my Aunt Bell’s in there. I think she’s taking on the case. Oh, thank God. Thank God.

Well, if you see her, you tell her to hold on. Okay. Tell her mama is coming.

So for now, you just stay quiet and you let me do all the talking. Okay. Oh, it’s Allie. She’s out in the station and she said she just spoke to your mom and she’s on her way soon. I can’t believe this happened on our election night. Well, they obviously planned it that way.

I trust that you and your shiny new client are getting to know each other, but I still have questions that need to be. Well, they’ll have to wait. It’s been a long night and I still need to see your evidence . Okay, you wanna stall? Fine, but since it’s too late for an arraignment, it’s also too late for a bail hearing, meaning your client is gonna be our guest for the night downstairs in the lockup.

Detective, please escort our newest guest down to reporters for the evening. Uh, Chanel. Everything is gonna be okay, Sean. We’ll keep you safe and I’ll have you out in the morning. Okay, here we go.

Best Cuffer before you walk her down there as befits a murder suspect.

I really got Paulina, his daughter in trouble, huh? Yeah. Looks pretty bad. We’re kid. Well, Alex seems to think whatever happened that I did it on purpose. Did you? What? I would never do anything to Paulina or Chanel. If Sloan stole something from Paulina Safe, she did it while I wasn’t looking. You believe me, right.

God help me. But yeah. Yeah, I do.

I can’t stay here any longer. I need to be with my daughter. Look, I know that. And I will do my best to shield you from those reporters. So are you ready for this? Oh, I have to be. We’ll get through it together.

All right, let’s go.

Well, now we. Sloan used Leo to get that file. Are we sure he wasn’t working for her? I don’t know, but we should probably get started on this right away. Yeah. I’m sorry, Alex, but I have to go. My phone is going to explode if I don’t at least release a statement and I need to go find Paulina. Yeah, of course.

But we’ll do this again another time. I’d like that. It’s a lot

you. Yeah, let’s go.

Congratulations, madam Governor Elect, Mr. Mayor, you both won hard fought elections. But I wonder at what price? What are you doing here? Are you here to glute something like that? Paulina, you know, it would’ve been so much cheaper for you just to pay me when I asked, but now the whole world is gonna know what Chanel did and how you covered it up.

Well, here’s what I know that you are a miserable, heartless cow. Now get outta. I’ve gotta go see my daughter. Oh,

Chanel. Oh my God. I’m so sorry. Don’t touch the prisoner. Oh, she’s not a prisoner detective. This contact is inappropriate. Whatever you need, I’m here for you. Okay. I love you. She, I love you too, Chelsea. Take her away.

It means I’m finally an A-list. Gay. Wow. Does that mean we’ll actually get a, a good table tonight? It damn will better. She’s coming.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Relax. She’s fine. Susan is being well taken care of. For the moment, don’t you do that? Okay. Let me get one thing clear here I am calling the shots. Now I have your mother, and if you do exactly what I tell you to maybe just, maybe I will return her to. In one piece.

We have had a productive morning. My love. Indeed. We have. We have performed our civic duty and celebrated with a lovely little shopping spree. Well, actually the shopping spree was your, My reward is a leisurely lunch. And what’s on the menu for today? She’ll see Sean Douglas. Happy Election Day. Yeah, you too, grandpa.

Have you voted yet? You should go right now while the lines are still short, darling. I’ll do it later, grandma. I will. But, um, I’m actually, I’m, I’m here to see you. Me? Yeah. Uh, this is, uh, this is really awkward. Um, and I’m really sorry, but. I need to look in your shopping bag, . Why? I’m afraid you’ve been accused of shoplifting shop.

Timmons? I don’t think so.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Were you just about to cover up Tim’s poster with ours? Were you? Were you? It was an impulse. A bad one. I know, but after almost torpedoing Paulina’s entire campaign, I just wanted to do everything possible to make sure she wins. How is my future governor? Oh, I don’t know how you do this.

I’ve had butterflies all morning. I am a nervous wreck. Oh, what’s them? And you ran an excellent campaign, Paulina. You know, you did it without any major missteps or scandals and consider. The intense scrutiny that you get when you run a campaign. Well, you were pretty lucky. You have no idea. Breathe sunny, boy.

Keep that gaze forward. Not up. Alright. Oh, your palm should be directly underneath your shoulders. That’s where they are. No, they’re not. Just they are. You need to hug your elbows a little closer to your hips, bud. Keep ’em straight. There you go. And try not to be such a grump. Okay. You know why I’m a, a grmp?

It’s cuz I hate yoga. It’s never been my thing. Well, that’s because you never gave it a chance. Okay. Now we are going to transition into a downward facing dog. Hips. Raise up back, straight legs straight. Great. I’m gonna push your heels into the ground. Yep. I hate this. I hate. Oh dude, this really isn’t that hard.

You just gotta stop being so negative. Oh, oh my God. I can literally feel the tension releasing from my body. I can stay in this position all day long, baby. That’s because being a dog comes so naturally to you. You sneaky son of a bitch.

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

based on the early returns I’ve. , we’ve got a pretty good lead on my opponent. . Hey. And that is wonderful. Yeah. So any updates on your ratio? Oh, let me check. Mary. Get in here. Uh, it’s still Leo, Ms. Price. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, I’m sorry. It’s gonna take me a while to get used to that. You know, Mary’s been my only assistant for so long.

Well, since I am so grateful to be gainfully employed and find you to be, although a bit diva ish, also funny as hell and smart as a whip. You can call me whatever you want. . Yeah, a bit diva ish. In a good way. Anyway, I assume you called me in here for some election updates, so mail-in ballots and early exit polling.

Have you slightly ahead of Tim ends? Yes. All right. , . You see, I told you. You did. You did. But. I don’t want to count my chickens too soon, you know? I also have some phone messages for you. There is one from your sister Tammy, one from Governor Mitch. End three. From that bch Sloan Peterson

Sloan, what’s going on babe? , don’t you play dumb with me? You duplicitous little creep. I know you took, it took what? A file. I, I, I still don’t know what you’re talking about, baby. Hold on. It had to be you because nobody else has been in my apartment. Why Alex? Why, why? I thought we were friends. Why would you betray me like this?

I wouldn’t worry about Paulina. Everybody at Canvas this morning intends to vote for her. Hey, I’m telling you she’s got this in the bag. Mm. I hope you’re right. I know I am. And after she’s declared Governor, you and I we’re gonna go out to dinner and we’re gonna celebrate on me. Really sweet Chad. Um, but I already have plans tonight.

Plans, well, I’m, um, I’m going out with Alex.

Someone accused me of shoplifting. I know, I know. It’s completely crazy. But the clerk Saxons claims that. You left without pain. So listen, if I can just look in the bag, we can clear this whole entire thing up and we can come on, we can prove that she’s wrong. Of course. Waste of time. Tad insulting. I know, but I know you’re just doing your job, darling.

So go ahead. Have a look.

It is a mink stole full. Of course. But doesn’t it look lovely and real? I assume you, you have a receipt of this right? Show him the receipt. Why would I have a receipt? Because you are the one who paid for it. No, ma’am. I did not pay for it. I thought you paid for it.

Oh.

Oh, I see you and hen did some major building. We built the Brady Pub, actually, where W Woman Works, . Yeah. Let me help you with that. How was the bakery today? Great. Um, our employees are really excited about having the rest of the day off to vote. Henry’s napping, I assume? Yep. I put him down about 15 minutes ago.

Oh, yep. Oh, oh, it’s this, this, oh. Some media outlet. They won’t interview me. So Stephanie got the questions in advance so that I could go over them. You know, it just occurred to me. You’ll be a public figure. My girlfriend’s gonna be famous. Mama has to get elected first. Didn’t Sloan Peterson come to see you once before?

Why does she keep pestering here? She tried to hit me up for a job as my in-house council. I turned her down flat, but she just can’t take hell no for an answer. uh, you know, I’ve gotta, I gotta check in with my campaign manager. So I will meet you at the square. Mm-hmm. and we’ll go vote together. Alright?

Absolutely. . Uh, so what’s next on the agenda? Mary? I mean, Leo, uh, let’s see. You have an interview in about 10 minutes. K D J Y, and in the meantime, would you like me to set up calls for those messages? I’ll get to them later, except for the ones from that witch Sloan. She can go kick rocks. Sloane, you gotta calm down.

Okay. I will not calm down when I have been lied to and betrayed and it’s so stupid of me when, because it was obviously whenever you blindfolded me and handcuffed me to the bed, oh, don’t wanna hear this. Mm-hmm. And you, you were so slick telling me that story about how your cousin, or that she put some guy in the same position or whatever so she could steal from.

Why you were doing the exact same thing to me. All right, babe, I think you’re giving a little bit too much focus and attention to this little anecdote. Okay. You saw me leave your apartment. What? What did I do? H hide the file somewhere. You think I, it was hidden. You know, I had wondered that too. And then I remembered that it was Halloween and your aunt had just so happened to come to the house with that stupid trick-or-treating little brat.

And then I thought, whoa, that must have been, whenever he gave her the file, that’s when he passed the file off. You got Aunt Maggie involved in this? Of course. I didn’t get her involved. Sloane, you got things mixed up here. You got it all wrong. No, Alex, I have it exactly right and I just hope that it was worth it because you can say goodbye to the best sex you ever.

So Al Alex asked you out to dinner. Actually, I asked him, oh,

as a plot twist. Um,

Why the, why, the change of heart? Well, because after he took that file from Sloan and he saved Pauline’s campaign as well as my job and yours, so I just, um, I wanted to, you know, show my gratitude. Do you disapprove?

I mean, I think you could probably could have just sent them a thank you card. Going out to dinner is gonna, uh, make ’em think that you’re interested in them now that you’re willing to give ’em a shot. Well, maybe I am.

Um, wow. Some of these questions are very personal. Oh yeah. Like. , your girlfriend Allie, has a young son. What is your role in his life? Let see. Ooh. Um, any plans to get married? Children of your own? Like do they really think I would give this information a perfect strangers? Well, what about giving that information to me?

So Sloane is still harass. Threatening to send in her enforcers if I don’t pay her exorbitant legal fees. That woman is trash. Ah, the worst. And look, Ms. Price. I know you said you wouldn’t give me an outright loan, but now that I’m on salary, is there any way I could get in advance just to get her off my back?

Normally I would say no, but no one deserves to be in that conniving woman’s clutches, so yes. I will give you an advance. Oh, thank God. Thank you. So just how soon can I get that advance As it happens, I have some extra cash in my safe. Uh, speaking of which, there’s something else in there that I need to dispose of.

Discreetly. Do we happen to have a shredder? We certainly do. Is this something you want me to take care of and shred for you? No, no, no. I’ll handle it myself. Now, where is that combination? Oh, what, oh, it’s time for my interviews. We’ll have to do this later. I promise you won’t forget. You have my word. No one deserves to ever have to be tethered to that vicious snake.

Okay. So was Sloan telling the truth? I mean, I wouldn’t say it was the best sex I ever had, but No, you definitely top 10. You idiot. Not about that. About you stealing from her. Oh, I wouldn’t exactly call that stealing. But yeah, I took the file. Well, what was in it? Having a clue what? You stole something without even knowing what was in it.

That doesn’t even make any sense. Alex.

Look, if I tell you something, what? You keep Ines. Okay. Stephanie asked me to. What, why? Unless you know the better sunny boy plausible deniability. The important thing is your cousin seemed very, very grateful. So you committed a crime just to score some points. Uh, no. No. She was scared and she was upset, and I hated to see her like that.

So. Besides the side benefit for this is that she does seem a little bit warmer towards me. She asked me about the dinner tonight, like on a date. Mm. Actually, I’m not so sure about that. This dinner with Alex is gonna be a date then. Well, I guess I’ve come to realize that he isn’t the jerk. I thought he was, I mean, he tanked his relationship with Sloan just to help me out.

No, that doesn’t answer my question. Right. Uh, I. I was just explaining that I’ve changed my opinion of Alex, at least somewhat, but to actually answer your question, I’m, I’m not saying that going out to dinner with him is a date. Just that I, I have an open mind. must be thrilled about your newly open mind then.

I bet. Well, if he is, he has you to thank for it. Me. What did, what did? After my ex ghosted me, which I told you about, I shut down emotionally. There was no way I was gonna let anyone else hurt me like that again. But then getting to know you, that connection we shared made me wanna open myself up again and get back out there.

And since you’re not interested, what? Who said I wasn’t?

Well, I’m glad we got that all sorted out. I am just so mortified that that clerk actually believed I meant to shoplift. Wouldn’t have been the first time though, would it? Doug. Sorry. Shouldn’t have said that. Well, the cat’s out of the bag now. The incident your grandfather is referring to happened at Bartlett’s Department Store hundreds of years ago when I was just a teenager.

Grandma, I’m not, I’m not judging you. Okay. Oh, I’m judging myself, sweetie. I’m still embarrassed about it, and the, the item that I had my hands on was very expensive. As a matter of fact, it was also a mink. Real fur in those days. Sad to say. Anyway, they hustled me down to the police station and, and threatened to book me when Grandpa Tom and Uncle Mickey came to my rescue.

What do you mean you’re holding my daughter, Julie? We’re shoplifting Dr. Horton. See you and two other girls were picked up in Bartlett’s department. Shoplifting, Julie. Right? I’d suggest you get down here just as soon as you can. Alright? I’ll be down there in 20 minutes. Will the hospital need you? Dad?

I’ll make close the door. What’s you ready? Julie’s in some kind of trouble with the police. The police, she and two other girls are being held for shoplifting. What? I’ve gotta get down there right away. Mickey, I want you to come with me. How about Ben and Addie? Have the, have the police notified them apparently.

Why not? They’re Julie’s parents. They should be the first ones to know. Julie said her name was Julie Horton, not Olsen, Horton Police think she’s my daughter. Why that crazy kid? Julie’s not crazy Mickey, but she’s in some kind of serious trouble. Now, the sooner we get down there, the quicker we can straighten it out.

Are you gonna tell mom? No. I don’t want to worry, Eric. I’ll tell her it’s a, an emergency at the hospital. You try to reach Ben and Addie while I talk to your.

Now you will call that photographer first thing in the morning. Oh, yes. All right. Now about for music. Oh, Tom, do you think that we should have an accordion player at the wedding reception or a piano? I’m holding up the Beatles or a jazz combo, but no folks, singers. I draw the line at that. Uh, shoe fly baby daddies in the corn.

I’m not at my wedding now. Tom, what do you think? Well, anything Tony and Marie want is okay with me. Look, I, I’ve gotta go downtown. Oh. Oh, that call was an emergency then. Yes. In a way, Kelly. That must have been over 50 years ago. Oh, I think more, yeah, it was 57 years ago. To this very day.

Um, let’s start with the marriage question. Oh, well, considering what happened between Johnny and me, I am in no rush to tie the knot anytime soon. That doesn’t mean I can’t see us getting married someday. Yeah, same here. You know, obviously I love being with you and I’m really happy with how things are going right now, but they’ve only been dating for like three months.

Yeah, exactly. . So I am very cool with taking things slowly. Well look at us all in sync. Yeah. . Okay, so question number two. Mm-hmm. children. Well, I do love helping you raise Henry. Does this mean that you want more children? You know, as bad as things got between Johnny and me growing up, the good times, a hundred percent made up for it.

I don’t know. I think, I think that having a sibling can be really good for a kid. Yeah. It was lonely being an only child, and I can only imagine what it would’ve been like if Lonnie had been around when I was growing up. Mm-hmm.

I guess, yeah, I, I am open and more kids, you know, a couple years ago we were partying our way through London, not a care in the world, and now here we are talking about our future, like actual full-blown adults. It is so weird. Very weird, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

When did I say I wasn’t in. You made it pretty clear to Alex yesterday when you said that there was nothing between us and there never would be. I can’t believe he told you that. He didn’t I happen to walk in when you said it? Uh, I didn’t realize that. I’m sorry. No, you don’t need to apologize. I actually like knowing where things stand.

Well, let me explain. You don’t have to. No, I really, I really do need to. I, I need to. Um, Alex accused me of having feelings for you and, and, and I just, I didn’t, the question made me uncomfortable and I didn’t know how to respond, so I just blurted that out. So are you saying you didn’t mean what you said?

Stephanie said that she wanted to thank me for helping her out, but who knows if nothing else, at least now she doesn’t think I’m complete. Maybe she’ll give us a chance. Well, I would not push it if I were you. I know, I know. I know. I gotta play cool. I know. And as much as I hate to admit it, you were right before, I shouldn’t have been hounding her like that.

I should have just backed off a little. Maybe now as a reward, the universe intervened and is bringing us closer together. Okay. Well, uh, I think the universe has bigger fish to. But that being said, I’m glad that Stephanie’s finally given you a chance. Thank you. And I’m sure as hell not going to blow at this time.

Hello, Leo, Ms. Peterson, how may I help you? I’m here to see your boss since she isn. Returning my call, so I decided to pay her a visit. Well, she’s not here, as you can clearly see. Next time I would recommend making an appointment. Oh, really? Well, next time you hire an attorney, I would recommend you expect to pay.

I’ll have your money soon. Soon. Is as bad as never in my book. No, this is legit. I swear I can have your money tomorrow. Well, tomorrow doesn’t work for me, so I guess I am just gonna have to send my associates on the job. They can be here in 10 minutes. Whoa. No, no, no. Wait. Whoa, wait, wait, wait. I, I can get your money now.

Okay.

This price was going to give me the money before she was called away. I’m sure she wouldn’t mind my taking care of this myself. She’s a big fan of initiative.

Sean Douglas, I’m so happy you decided to join us for lunch. Yeah, I think actually he was, Trying to make sure that we didn’t dine and . No. Hey, near is everybody. How are your Hey. Hello. Yourself there, Mr. Mayer? Yes, sir. , we presume that you are well on your way to, uh, happy reelection today. Well, it’s looking pretty good, , but you know, it is, it’s, it’s not over yet.

And, um, well I may not have the job for very. Uh, look between us, if Paulina wins her election, I’ll be stepping down this mayor moving to the capitol with her man. That’ll be quite a gesture, eh, Paulina, we just heard that, uh, you may be taking away our precious Abe. Maybe not. I just received some very troubling news.

Hey Alex, am I doing this right? Looks good to me. We are doggy style suits. You, Jackson. It’s called Downward Dog. You ass. And what are you doing here? Ah, I can’t believe I’m gonna say this, but I need you to get dressed. I’m here to take you out to dinner to celebrate my new job. Wow. What’s with the look? I didn’t think you were serious about that.

Oh, I never joke about dinner dates. Sunny. This isn’t just about celebrating me and my success. It’s also about celebrating you. Me. Why me? Well, thanks to your very impressive olfactory senses, you were able to identify Clyde Weston as your attacker, thereby keeping my finally toned fanny out of prison. So let a grateful gal take you out for a night on the.

I promise you won’t regret it.

Okay. Obviously there’s an attraction between us

and part of me thinks that it would be really nice to pursue that and, and to see where that. And the other part, the part you’re obviously listening to, still grieving Abigail. I’m, I’m not ready to start seeing anyone. Not in any serious way,

and I don’t. Wonder if I ever will be. So I, while I, I may have overstated things to Alex. I don’t want you to have to sit around and, and, and wait and hope that

I, I, I sound like an egomaniac right now, and I, I, I, I can’t even finish the sentence. No, no, not at all. I, I appreciate your honesty.

I am really glad. You wanna start dating again though? Even if it’s Alex, wouldn’t be my first choice. No. But if that’s who you want to date, no. Then I support you. That’s what friends do, right? Friends?

Well, alright. Uh, now that, that incredibly awkward conversation is, should we get to work? Yeah. Yeah. We should get to work. Okay.

Hmm. Troubling news, Alina, well, maybe I’m overreacting, but I just ran into Phillips who owns the of men. She told me she didn’t vote for me and that a lot of the other local business owners didn’t vote for me. Apparently they’re still angry about that whole price town business. They’re claiming I’m just a shill for big business.

Well, that’s not true. Well, true or not, this really could hurt my chances. Ms. Price, we need to talk. Well, is it about these small business owners? I’m sure Timmons is behind it, but don’t worry. I was already anticipating something like this, so I’ve got a rebuttal all set to go. I just need your approval.

Stephanie, you’re a godsend. Is there anything else we can do to help? Yes. Go and vote. Oh, well, Gary, the lady, let’s get to it. Oh.

Yeah. And I love you too, Lonnie, darling. Yeah. I said thank you. Thank you for calling and thank you for your support throughout the campaign. Yeah, you, I’m gonna hand you off to your father now, okay? Mm-hmm. . All right. Hey, hey, sweetheart. Oh yeah. This is a big day here. So how are we doing on damage control?

I think we were able to turn the narrative around in time to reach the voters. Think he was just congratulating me on avoiding any missteps over, uh, Ms. Price compared to, uh, some of the other political bombshells, the state of scene price town ranks pretty well. Hmm. Okay. Everybody, they just called my race and.

I won. Yeah.

Wow. Where are you going Out? Just out, out to dinner by yourself? No, not by. With Leo Stark. Seriously. Why? I know. Because I have been cooped up in this house ever since I got out of the hospital and I decided that I needed a night out. Okay. Even if it is with Leo Stark. Huh? And how does will feel about you going to dinner with another man?

This is not another man. Okay. Let me just say again, it’s Leo Stark. It’s your ex-husband. Oh God. You’re right. Just hearing that makes my skin crawl. Thank you for reminding me, and not that it’s any of your business, but he just wants to thank me for clearing his name for the murder. All right. Celebrate his new job.

Oh see, celebrate equals festive equals more than a friendly dinner in my book. Oh, none in mine. It’s just a meal. Hmm. And a change of scenery. I am in desperate need of, I am not. Looking for romance. Okay. Well that makes one of us. Yes it does. Because you are single and I am not. So don’t compare you going out with Stephanie.

To me, going out with Leo, because it’s not only annoying and ridiculous, it is disrespectful to me and to Will. All right, you got it. I got it. I get it. No comparison. But I will tell you this, I am hoping, and by the end of the night, I have sweated Stephanie right off her feet, okay? They’re neck and neck with only a few counties left to report.

We might not have a definitive answer tonight, I swear to the Lord above. I’ll flip my wig if I have to wait till tomorrow morning. wait. They’re calling it. You did it.

Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you all. So, Very much, and I am honored that the good people of Salem have continued to support me and have found me worthy of serving another term as their mayor.

But I regret to inform you as grateful as I am that. , I intend to step down and hand the reins to my very, very capable deputy mayor. Now, I, I, I do not make this decision lightly, but as you know, my, uh, wife Paul, the price. It has just been elected our new governor.

Thank you. So I believe that it is my duty to support her with the best of my abilities, and so I will be. with her to the state Capitol. . Now that being said, it will be my pleasure to turn this microphone over to the woman of the hour. My incredible wife, Paulina Price.

Thank you. Thank you for this warm welcome and I, I can’t tell you how blessed I feel to be taking on such, such an important. , but I wouldn’t have been here without my support team, starting with my incredible campaign staff,

and of course my amazing husband, mayor Abe Carver.

Oh, as well as my two wonderful, wonderful daughters. Lonnie Price Grant and Chanel Dupree, come here baby,

who truly, truly are the wind beneath my wings. There really is nothing, nothing more important. Then

Julie.

What’s all this? It would be anniversary to you. My darling. Anniversary of what? Your life of crime. . Oh my.

By now, if you know me, you know when I commit myself to something, I fight heart and soul for it. So I look forward. To dedicating my heart and soul to the good people of this state.

Congratulations. I, uh, just heard the news. Can you believe it? I am now the executive director for the governor of the state. Do you know what this means? Getting a raise? No, it means I’m finally an A-list. Gay. Wow. Does that mean we’ll actually get a a good table tonight? It damn will better. She’s coming.

Hi

Chad. Paulina just gave me the rest of the night off, so you’re a free man. Great. I’m glad I could help. You ready? Yes, just in time for our reservation to bistro. Thanks again for your help. Chad. Couldn’t have done it without you.

Enjoy your victory while you can Ms. Price.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

 Ha Ha ha. Gotcha. You. No, no, don’t be out. I’m gonna get you one way or another. Bacteria invested. Little bastard guitar, whatever. I’m sorry.

Oh, good. You’re here. You’re glad to see me. Oh, sweet. Chloe quit her job at Basic Black to go to Damara headquarters. And you did that, didn’t you? I didn’t hear you come in. Well, I heard you talking about me. What? You said my name. Oh, so that must mean your Stephan Dam. Excellent deduction. Who are you? I’m Wendy Sh Lisa.

Nice to meet you. You still haven’t told me who you were talking to about me and why,

boy, what happened Was John here, he told me something that he didn’t want you to tell you. And you know me. I, Anthony, most honest person since Colonel Tom Parker, his own self. Well, I mean now they’re saying that old Tom. He’s not so honest, but I am. And you know, I don’t like to keep secrets between you and I show him, I’m gonna tell you what he said.

Come on grandma, get it over with Elish. You boy is just sick at heart from everything that’s been going on this past few weeks. Is he? Yes. He is just missing his ex. Something fierce. His acts the lovely.

Are you wishing it here, honey, you’re No, no, no. I was talking about Ava

Like sand through the oas. So are the days of.

Don’t even think.

You know, usually the stray is more effective than the can itself. He was empty. Huh? You got him. So fair play to you. Ah, I’ll get some more ro spray when I go out. Only like it will be the last can we need. Does that mean that the job interview went well? Yeah, I did connect with, um, one prospect that seems promising.

This is so exciting. Can’t wait all about it.

I don’t keep up with Chloe’s comings and goings anymore. So you had no idea that Lee Shin had offered her a job at Damari? Nope. Lee said that you didn’t put him up to it, but, but what You think he’s lying to you? I think I have good reason to believe that whenever Chloe has a big sudden change in her life that you orchestrated, I barely know Le.

My relationship was with his father. I mean, so why would he take orders from me? He reports to ej. EJ fired me. You really expect me to believe that you’ve just stopped pulling all the strings because you’re living here now, Chloe, quitting basic black only benefits one person, and that would be you.

Kristin, maybe Chloe does benefit. She could have, uh, decided that a job at Damara was to step up for her. And if you cared about her, like you say you do, you might try being supportive. Frankly, I’m surprised at least she would offer her any kind of position at Damara given her personnel file. It’s only full of bad performance reviews from you.

Okay. You know what? Maybe he doesn’t care about my. Or he thought that she would do a better job if she wasn’t so distracted by you. He probably found out that you had broken off with her and moved on with me. I moved you in here, but I haven’t moved on. I love Chloe more than I ever have. Well, you’ll get some perspective now.

I didn’t get Chloe that job, but uh, I do think it’s a very positive change for all three of us.

You’re not saying very much because I’m embarrassed. I was talking to myself. Do it a lot. Why did you say my name? Well, I was working on updating our electronic records and your file jumped out at me as problematic. Not that according to our HR records, you’re dead. Yeah, I’ve been running into a lot of that lately.

Hey, while you’re at it, you mind fixing my voter registration? That’s a tricky one. That’s what they said. What does it feel like to be you? I mean, it must be weird. Just wake up and suddenly realize you’ve missed four years of your life. It’s good to be alive. But if I’m honest, it hasn’t been easy. I can imagine your wife has your job and she’s engaged.

My brother, you’re behind on the times. See, Gabby doesn’t have that job anymore, and as far as I’m concerned, Lee can have her. You know, she’s interesting. And it is pretty impressive, right? The fact that she has a prison record that she became CEO of Damara Gabby is interesting on paper. Well, she must be really smart.

She’s also beautiful, huh? You know, she used to impress me too, but not anymore. In fact, I kind of hate to think about our time.

Well, I would hate to see my brother get hurt. Could you maybe tell me what happened to make you change how you feel about her? You must have loved her once. Are you sure you’ll never love her again?

You told your grandmother that you still have feelings forever. Uh, well, I, uh, I, I didn’t realize it, you know, until I was talking to her about it. She’s, you know, she’s got a way of knowing things that you, you don’t wanna admit. Mm-hmm. even to yourself. Yep. That’s right. I You should it by and dad, I know, but I know I told you I was over it and Yes, her lie about being married to Jake was low.

It was also. Johnny Ava’s a master manipulator. She played up to your uncle Jake after he broke up with Gabby. Then she and Gabby cooked up this phony marriage after he died, and she made you an ally with her sad story about her deep love for her dead husband. I know that. Now, look, son, I hope you’re not being hard on.

Being taken in by a woman doesn’t make you weak. It makes you human.

You gonna get over by

mother’s, right? And fortunately, Ava will never set foot in this time again. Again.

Charlie, what are you doing here?

So the good brother, he still wants you to move in with him, doesn’t he? Wants you to bake him cookies. Scrub his floors. Is that the life you want? Well, no. Didn’t think so. I miss my son. On your son too. You have a son right here. Hi name’s Charlie. Nice to meet you. You know, I, I hear that it’s cold and rainy in Seattle, but things seem to be heating up nicely in Salem.

Don’t. Don’t you want your revenge against EJ Damara? Don’t you need that revenge? I thought so. So put the gun in the bag and stop thinking about wimping out. Yeah. Well, here’s the problem. I’m not sure I can, ah, well, you know, I’d hate to jinx the jar by talking about it before. It’s a sure thing, so you can’t tell me.

Well, let’s just say it makes good use of some of my skills and it could pay really well. Mm, and I shouldn’t be like worried that you won’t tell me any of the details. You know, I’m a changed man, don’t you? Yes, I do, and I’m very, very proud of you, but I rubs you, big boy. Oh.

Maggie wrote you a check. Yes. Why?

I don’t even know you yet. Here you are asking me to talk about something. So, Well, I was hoping you could put my mind at ease about, I told. I’m afraid my brother will get hurt, right, because now I’m back and I used to be married to Gabby and you were very much in love from what I hear. Could you maybe tell me what made you change your mind about her?

I don’t remember.

Oh, okay.

I assume that, uh, you’ve heard all the rumors as to why and Well, how I’m back. That Dr. Wolf guy. Yeah. See, people don’t seem to die in my family. More like they get deactivated and put into cold storage till they’re useful again. Oh yeah. So Gabby seems convinced that when Wolf brought me back, he did something to erase my feelings for her.

Well, do you think that could be true? Wolf swears up and down. He did no such thing. Gabby bought it Marks for me. Guess I stopped loving around my own. I see. You don’t seem reassured. I guess I’m not. Hmm.

Gabby is my past and I’m very much looking forward to my future. Is there someone else

might say that?

Well, There she is.

I broke it off with Chloe and I let you move into this house because if I hadn’t, you would’ve let Marlena, Kate and Caleb die. That’s the kind of woman you are. That’s the kind of woman you’re always gonna be so you can fix it. So Chloe changes job. I didn’t get finish. You can fix it. So Chloe changes jobs, but you’re not gonna change the way I.

I love her. I always will. He used to say those same words to me and you know you meant them.

And Victor hadn’t made me believe that our little baby was dead, was a lifetime ago. The lifetime of our little girl. Listen, keep your voice. Don’t you want her to hear everything that we’re talking just.

I am just trying to remind you, Vanessa, feel hook up. Remind you that whatever, whatever woman I loved before, she doesn’t exist. I don’t even know if she ever existed. Kristen did. Okay? Oh. No matter who I am, I have the means to keep Marlene and the others alive, and that is the only reason why you are in.

This is not the only. Rachel likes us being a family, and I want us to be a happy one. I’m not gonna, that’s never gonna happen. I understand that. I, I don’t know. I don’t know. You know what? , Chloe, Chloe will be better off. You’ll see. I mean, she’s accepted reality, even though you haven’t, that’s why she took this job.

So now you can just focus on us, you, me and Rachel. You blackmailed your way into this house and I’m never gonna change the way. Why am fighting again

the things we do for our children? Isn’t that Ra? Yes, mother. Oh, excuse me. I’ve been waiting for this cold all day. Thank you for getting back to me so quick. Hey, uh, thanks for not actually telling him what we were talking about. You what? I don’t like my only son, but, um, I mean, if you did do something terrible to his own brother, then yeah, I think the truth should come out.

So do you, uh, Have any of your, you know, vibes about me being on the right track or Johnny. Okay. You know what, my guess they, they, they, they only tell me what they want me to know. And, you know, I en crushed my fingers. That, that, that, uh, Elvis had nothing to do with the scrambling of your Uncle Stephan’s brain.

Me too. But look, if he did, then you, you know. You’re gonna have to prove it. Prove it in front of God and everyone else.

Mom came to see me this morning and offered us a little bit of money to tide us over. Took one look at this place. Huh? I told you I’d get us out of here. You don’t have any face in me. No, of course I do. But honey, if it embarrasses you to accept the money, then I will go and tell her, no,

Sarah, don’t go yet.

What’s with the doubts? Mom? Jake hated e. I’m sure that he wouldn’t mind me going after him, but it not like this. You know, Susan was his aunt or something. Do I have to say this again? Nothing is going to happen to Susan. We are holding her for a big ransom to hit EJ where he lives. His wallet. Come on, mom.

Be your authentic self. An evil bitch. Great. Well, I’m so glad to know my son thinks so highly of me. I’m in it as a compliment. Look, you already hired Xander. You told him the whole plan. You promised him his cut. There’s no turning back now.

Chloe, this is Wendy Shin Lee’s sister, Wendy. This is Chloe Lane. Hi. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you too. Wendy, could you give us a minute please? I need to speak with Chloe in private. No problem.

So I stopped by the end this morning. See you. And you had already. What are you doing here? Well, actually, Wendy’s brother offered me a job here and I accepted it. That’s great. Congratulations. Yeah. Thank you. I, I really hope this works out. I’m a little surprised and I thought you loved your job at Basic Black.

I do, but I can’t spend that much time with Brady anymore. I had to get outta that office. Mommy and daddy weren’t fighting honey.

It sounded like you were honey. Sometimes adults have to raise their voices when they’re talking about important things. I don’t like it. It makes my tummy hurt. Well, I didn’t know your tummy hurt. Shit. It was kind of hurting all day. Sweetie. Why don’t you tell me about that? I thought it’d go away, but it just got worse.

Oh, sweetheart, she’s feeling a little feverish. Show mommy where it hurts on your tummy right here. That could be her appendix. I mean, we should get her to the emergency room.

I’m sorry, love. I was an ass then. Oh, you were? Yes I was. But you know, I love Maggie. I just, I hate the idea that she thinks I can’t take care of you. No, she loves you too. She was just trying to help. I’m not gonna live off of you or her, but that’s my problem. I, I dunno. I’m just jumpy. I’m stressed that this job’s gonna fall through like all the others.

No way. I have a good feeling about it. It’s not anything illegal though, right? Bloody,

what? What is it? Nothing. It’s um, it’s actually a good thing they want me back for a second interview. See? See, I told you I had a good feeling and just to prove that I have complete.

And I’m all that charm. You both know you have. I’ll do best. You know that you can’t prove anything. That didn’t have been, no. But if my dad did do something to ste I’m gonna find out what it was.

Oh, hey, what does I say? Uh, you know what? I might be onto something. Fuck you. You be careful. Janna Damara, I mean, made you think this soldiers fun and game for I I have sensing some danger in this house. Well, then it’s a good thing I’m leav. Charles Ragona where she, which Grandma . And thank you again for covering for me.

Which grandma? That boy’s too nervous for his own good.

What’s. Oh, uh, he had to go someplace.

Mother, is there something wrong? Wait, so bumped over somebody else’s grave

land As long as we’re. Trust me, you’re doing the right thing.

I’m sorry. These premonitions of yours have been worrying you. Sometimes my gifts just feel like this heavy load, but I also know when you are not being honest with me. I thank you. Pardon? I walked in on you and Johnny with your heads together. Are you really talking about Ava?

Oh good. It’s you. Look, before you tell me what you found out. There’s something I have to tell you. My grandma knows what we’re doing, which grandma? My dad’s mom. No, don’t worry. Okay. She, she doesn’t know anything about you and, and she also promised that she wouldn’t say a word. So you sure you can trust her?

Yeah. She might be a little weird, but she doesn’t break a promise. So what do you got? I talked to Ste a day. How’d that happen? Well, I was working in the conference room and he just walked. I got him talking about him and Gabby good work. I said he has no idea why he stopped loving her. So Ralph did something to him.

Well, he said Gabby thought the same thing, but I swore he did it. Yeah, of course he’s gonna say that. Now. I bet that’s why they got rid of him because Gabby started sniffing around. That’s the other thing I wanted to talk to you about. I figure if Lee smuggled Dr. Ralph Outta town, he didn’t have a fly commercial, so he seems logical that he would use a Damer yet, but it turns out he hasn’t booked one for months.

Did I come all the way over here just for you to tell me we hit a dead end? No. I also found. That he requested a list of former damara pilots. Oh yeah. Yeah. Seems pretty suspicious to me. Get a copy of the list. Uh, do I look like an amateur?

It’s pretty long. Damara doesn’t seem like a very stable place to work, but I can start running background checks and see what we find. You know what? I don’t think you’re gonna have to do that.

She runs a little warm. I don’t think she has a fever. Hey, um, you feel like you have to throw up a little bit? Mm-hmm. , how much Halloween candy did you have since last night? Just one or two pieces. One or two pieces. You sure that’s what you said about your Easter basket and you were sick all day from that?

Remember honey, I have sweet tooth too. Look, Hey, I don’t, I don’t think we gotta go to the emergency room, but I do want you to lie down on the couch for a little bit. Okay? Okay.

Emma, mom, patient, I think you’re gonna feel a little icky for a while, but she’s gonna be okay. Yeah. I mean, you sure? It’s, she had too much Halloween candy. Oh, I don’t know. Let’s see.

Uh, I know, I know radio. She had a bone marrow transplant. I mean, don’t you think we should just get her checked out? Are you questioning my parenting? No, I’m not. I just don’t know what it would do if anything happened to her. Listen, she also gets motion sickness, right? I don’t wanna put her in a car while she’s nauseous.

Oh God. I just, I wish doctors would make house calls. I know one that might, okay, we’ll call them her. Sarah h.

Yeah, well, please tell her if she is willing to come, that I would be forever in her debt.

Interesting meeting place you picked at. Oh, where’d you wanna meet? Orton Town Square. Uh, I enjoy making deals like they’re surrounded by dead people. Okay, well you’re on the Dememer property. Aren. You didn’t have to go through the front gate, and Susan happens to be in the main house right now. You aren’t asking me to grab her tonight, are you?

Oh, I’m asking you to grab her right now.

You don’t seem too happy about your new job.

Actually I’m, I’m kind of miserable about it. Yeah, it must hurt, but, uh, you’re doing the right thing. For what it’s worth. I know that Brady cares about me, and maybe he still even loves me, but moving Kristin in with him after everything that she had. And him swearing to me that he would never be with her again.

I just, I don’t understand it and I never will. I’m so sorry. I just, I look at him and I, I think about all the plans that we made for our future, and now knowing that none of those plans are gonna happen. I decided that not seeing him is better than seeing him under these circumstances. You’re taking care of yourself.

I’m trying to.

I just wish it didn’t hurt so much.

Hey, things are gonna get better. Come here. You’ll see.

So how is she. I hear a lot of rumbling, which I think is your tummy’s way of saying that it wants more fruits and vegetables and less candy. But I like candy. Who is candy is. So good, but maybe only a couple pieces a day and after a meal and in turn you won’t feel like you have to vomit all the time. Is that a good deal, I guess?

Uh, yes. She’s also been under a lot of stress the last couple months. Well, um, a stress can lead to it 28th, um, but the situation has been taken care of. Brady and I mm-hmm. have handled it. Yeah. So, um, there’s. No emergency here, right? No. Her abdomen isnt tender, which means it’s not your appendix. Thank goodness.

Well, thank you. Thank you for coming over, Seth. Mm-hmm. . I’m always happy to, Rachel, I brought something for you and I only do this from my most. Some special variations.

What do you think? I love you. Love them. They’re yours,

Here we go. There you go. You always like sunglasses. Even when you were a baby , I think you’re gonna be feeling better soon. Okay. Try her with, uh, some sips of water and if she can keep that down, then you can move on to the tea or a carbonated drink. Yes, another drill. Good

Thank you.

Please. Um, let me pay you for your time and trouble. I was happy to do it for Brady and Rachel. I know it couldn’t be easy. I liked taking care of her again. I’m always gonna care about her. Please send me a bill. It’s the least I can do after kidnapping me and nearly ruining my life. I don’t want your money.

Xander’s not working. Xander has a job interview right now. We’re fine.

There’s one name on this list I’ve heard before. Ned Granger. He’s done a lot onto the table. Work for my family. In the past, my Aunt Kristen used him to kidnap two women and I thought my family was. I should have thought of his name before. Why is he not in prison? Well, uh, one of the women that my aunt Kristen kidnapped was my uncle Chad’s wife.

Her name was, uh, Abigail. Um, anyway, Chad figured out what was going on and Granger told him where Abigail was in exchange for a deal. My dad and your brother would still know that Granger’s breathable. So if they wanted to get rid of Ralph, odds are they would’ve hired him to do it.

Don’t like my only baby boy calling me liar. That’s not what I was doing. Johnny’s quite good at convincing people to do what he wants. I wonder where gets that from. I suspect he’s. Angry at me regardless of what he says. At the contrary,

if he asked you to choose size between him and me, I did no. Look, if he did, I wouldn’t do it. I wouldn’t do it because I love you both and I won’t watch fish for the two of you.

You can’t ask me to grab Susan right now. Haven’t made a plan of egg noses in the house. I’ve made the plan. I know exactly who’s in the house and how it operates. This has to happen now, or somebody’s gonna get cold feet. It must be an easier way to get money out of VJ than trying to kidnap his mother from under his nose, find out when she leaves the house.

Okay? For one thing, I don’t know how long she plans to stay here for another. We could both use that ransom money sooner than later. So, So everything you need. Floro. Formm the old school, isn’t it? Yeah, it still works. You know how to use it. Just don’t get caught. Oh, really? Hadn’t thought of that. Be kind of the old gal.

Don’t hurt her. She’s someone’s mother. She’s someone’s grandmother. Yeah. I’ll treat you with kid gloves, latex. Anyway, hopefully soon this little be over.

So you think if we track down this greener guy, he lead us to wolf? I sure hope so, because if we can find Wolf, we’ll be able to prove that. My dad and your brother did brainwash my Uncle Stephan.

I’m sorry, I’m, I’m probably getting Musk out on your jacket. No, no, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to just . No, it. It’s okay. That felt better being pulled into someone’s arms and being pushed away. I just can’t stop thinking about Brady. I wish I could forget about him for just a few minutes. Maybe I can help with that.

You look like a movie star. I do not. Yes you do, but I lie to you. Okay. Here sweetie. Here’s some club soda. I’m sort of hungry. I mean, that’s good. That’s good. That means you’re feeling better. You’ve jettison the waste basket. Ah,

I’m glad you’re not finding anymore. Yeah. Well, there’s one thing that your dad and I can agree on is that we love you very, very much. Hey, you don’t ever have to worry about us. Okay? Come

I don’t worry Animals. Hm.

Calm down, mom. If anybody knows how to pull off a kidnapping, it’s you.

I know I never made you proud, but right now you are my pride and joy.

Ooh, I’ll go to Chuck on dinner. Oh, you know what? I already did that. You know your cook. She’s gonna make us those catfish nuggets that I love so much. We’re having fried catfish, . Sure. And she’s gonna add a lot of side pepper spicy when she pound in them out. Oh good. I look forward to that. Coming out in the morning,

Huh? I’m just.
