THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

All bugging me fully paid my rent.

Hmm. It’s Brady who’s almost here. So he is gotta talk to me about something. Okay. I’ll just let you two co-conspirators talk then. Wait, you said you just wondered who doctored those biscuits instead of Chanel? We would do something like that. Oh God. I mean, I have a lot of enemies in this town. I should probably hire a private investigator or throw a monkey wrench into the police investigation.

Yeah. Well, how are you gonna do that? If I knew that I would already be doing it. Hmm.

Brady. Oh hey, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were busy. No, it’s fine. I was actually, I’m just leaving. Don’t you worry. I’ll figure everything out. I always do. Okay.

What’s up? Oh, two’s still a thing, huh? Yes. We’re still a thing. Why? Mm. Ah, no offense. Just, um, Doesn’t everybody hate her?

Mm-hmm. Best chocolate brownie on the planet. Try a free sample. You’ll think you, you’re in heaven. It’s no use mama. People are so scared of what we bake. I couldn’t even pay someone to try one. Ooh, Chanel Dupree. Don’t you even think of giving up? Yeah. We’ll tell that to Sloane Peterson. She lost two court cases and that hasn’t slown her down, and so she can’t get me put in jail.

Then she’s trying to run my business to the ground. I told you we won’t let that happen. Now let’s just go home and come up with a plan because long you stay here, you just keep getting upset. I can’t leave. I have to stay here, close up and just get everything ready for tomorrow. If there is a tomorrow, oh, well, well, well, let me help you.

No, no, it’s, it’s fine. I, I, I wanna do it myself. I, I need to just clear my head and I, and I need some alone time and that’s why I sent Talia home. Oh, well, okay. Okay. You’re the boss. Okay. Oh, alright. I’ll see you later then. Okay, good. See you then. Mm-hmm. And thank you mama. We’re trying to help. Oh, you know, you know I’m there for you, baby girl, always.

What do you mean? Talia told me wasn’t true. You saying she lied to me? No, I’m not saying she lied. That would be assuming too much. It, it’s just, it’s just what? There’s this one thing, something she said that doesn’t line up with what really happened and it’s obviously really bothering you. You need to tell me what it is, Jada.

Hey,

God, tell ya, you won’t believe how much I missed you. I missed you too, and I’m sorry I’m late. The police want to talk to Megan. What for?

It’s not suspicious of anything, are they? No, no, no, no. Chanel was there too. They just wanted the firm of the timeline for when the biscuits got doctored. That’s all.

Hey, don’t worry. Okay. They have no idea that you are the one that put me up to it.

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

Okay, so going after Chanel and her bakery was my idea. For saying that I put you up to it. That’s kind of harsh. Don’t you think? I mean, are we not in this together? Yeah. No, we are definitely, I agree to do this. It’s, it’s just, it’s a little hard seeing I’m the only one out there and you just have to lay low.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, it is hard on this end too. My mother was the one that Chanel pushed off that roof. I know that. And you think that I like sending you out to do my work for me? No, I, I don’t think that at all. Look, I’m sorry. Okay. I, I should have never said that. You put me up to it. I wanted to help you and I still do, and I’m so grateful.

I know how much I’ve asked of you, and I know how much you’ve done for me.

And there’s that worry. Look again. Where’s it now? I don’t know it. It’s just what? Just say it. Look, it’s not just about me, Colin. The police are looking really hard into Sloan. She’s their number one suspect and she has no idea that her own brother is behind what happened.

Yes, it’s true. A lot of people do hate Sloan, but I’m not one of them. In fact, she and I decided to take our relationship to the next level. Hey, congratulations to you. You’re giving me your blessing. Yeah, no judgments. All right. I’ve just heard the rumors that Sloan is the one who tempered with the biscuits.

That’s exactly what they are. Brady rumors, I mean, take that from somebody who was a victim. Really, really. I know. I, I assume you’re okay now. It’s all right. It’s okay. I’m fine. What the hell was that like? Hard to remember. I don’t like to talk about it, but look at first, the first thing I was thinking that yes, I thought it was Sloan who tampered with the dough.

All right. But I am her alibi is all the reason why. I know she had nothing to do with it. All right, good, good. You know what, I’m just looking out for you, right? And I know you too, Brady. I know you’re not here to talk to me about Sloan. No, I’m not here to talk about Sloan. I’m here to talk about Chloe and how to keep that bastard Xander away from her.

All right. You can turn around now. Uh, I’m sorry, I, I should have called first. Oh no, actually is kind of unexpected, but I do have a small window of time. My zoom call with Jeff Bezos got pushed back. Oh, wow. Well, when you do speak to Jeff, give him my love. Of course. Um, so, uh, I, I wanted to give you, This, uh, though I’m not really sure where to put it.

Oh. Um, how about here? Ah, why didn’t I think of that? What’s one? Well, I had a hard time finding a card that said I’m, I’m sorry. I almost killed you without Dart. Thank you very much. But I am healing up nicely. I’m happy to report. That’s good. So how often are you changing that bandage? You’re supposed to change it.

Only if you don’t want it to get infected. Uh, okay. Not sit down. I’ll, I’ll do it. Really? Yeah. Well, it’s the least I can do after you save me from almost eating that drugged up skit. All right. Sorry if this hurts. Oh my goodness. Look at that thing. Oh, you’re such a man. Oh, I never had any complaints on that score before.

And promise me that you will change this regularly. Okay? Like every day, price, every day. I won’t able to do it as well as you. You’re regular Florence Nighting, aren’t you? Mm. Thanks. And you are not. A regular Mr. Clean. Ah, yeah. Sorry about that. I mean, if it’s the clothes on the floor you find offensive, you should know that they’re, they’re not all dirty.

Some of them I just haven’t folded yet. Ah, to be honest, Chloe, I’m starting to feel that this place is a bit of, uh, uh, pet not indicative of my current financial status. You know, I was busted when I moved in here. I’ve be saving up some money and I think I’m ready to finally start looking for a new place.

Mm. You and me both. You need someplace new. Yeah. Like yesterday,

every time I see Chloe Xander’s there just hovering, hanging around, playing darts with her, whatever, he’s obviously gunning for her, and the thing is, Chloe’s been hurt recently with some of the things that I’ve said. Happened to walk that tight rope with Rachel. She, she, she may be open to him. Does anything happen yet?

Nothing that I know of. Okay. Then take my advice. Don’t get all worked up for no good reason. All they could be doing is hanging out and throwing guards. Just like you said, you know Chloe, she’s smart and she’s gonna see right through Xander’s Act. See, that’s it. Nicole is a smart cookie as well, and she didn’t exactly see through Zander, Zach either, did she?

I guess you have a good point. Look, it’s nice of you worrying about my sister, but we knew going into this that the cops would suspect her. And I damn sure didn’t want them worrying about you, especially since you’ve put so much on the line.

Your lawyer may have pulled a rabbit out of her hat. But you are not off the hook. You listened to me, Sloan Peterson. You have lost and you will keep on losing and losing. So how about you’ll find something better to do with your time than trying to hurt me and my family trying to drag us to court to satisfy your sick need for revenge.

When my daughter and I, we have done nothing wrong. Do you hear me?

There is definitely no evidence tying someone to that. No Paulina’s office being trashed, right? Because thanks to you getting those keys, there was no forced entry and they can’t know anything else we did on Sloan either because she’s innocent. More importantly, she’s a damn good lawyer. She’s never gonna let them railroad her.

Yeah, but Colin, don’t you think we should probably tell her what we’ve been doing? No. No. That would make her an accessory yet. Plus she would never go for something like this. After she wasn’t able to nail Chanel and her mother in court, she had to pump the brakes. She would never risk a law license doing something illegal, which is when I had to step in.

Change the game. We need help. Of course,

Talia told you that she went straight home after dinner at Chanel’s Place the night before all this went down. Right? I remember, but I was there Rafe, she didn’t, she didn’t come home until hours later. You sure? She would be pretty hard to miss? I mean, we can’t even turn around that place without bumping into each other.

No. I mean, how do you know that it was the same night? Because I vividly remember it. It was when it was when you and I admitted that we have feelings for each other.

Hi.

Hey, Chanel, Alex. Hi. Hi. Did I read right? You’re engaged to Johnny Damara? Let me guess, lady Whistleblower. I was an spectator today. Is that not true? What is true is that Johnny and I both had my biscuits, which turned out to be tainted with hallucinogens and I told Leo owe that and not to make anything of it, but we all know to him the truth is just an irrelevant detail.

Right. So the creep does what he usually does and wrote whatever he thinks is gonna sell papers. Yeah. To the moron to actually read that crap. Oh, sorry, my, that didn’t come out the way I meant it. Nah, I think it did. Look, I know you’re still pissed off at me about everything that happened with Allie. Okay.

Another topic I don’t wanna talk about. Regardless, this whole thing, the drugging of the biscuits, it’s ridiculous and I truly feel for you, and I can only imagine what it’s doing to your business. No, it’s killing it. Which is exactly why your little girlfriend Sloan did it. Well, it’s not my girlfriend’s.

I mean, yeah, we hooked up, but that was over a long time ago. Well, maybe it shouldn’t be. What do you mean? Well, if you’re really sorry about what happened with Allie, make it up to me. Get SW back in your bed.

You want me to get Sloan back in my bed, boy, because you can sweet talk her like crazy and then screw a confession out of her.

Are you kidding me? Look, look, the, the cops keep saying that they don’t have any proof to prove that Sloane is the one that’s doing everything to me and my mom, even though it’s beyond obvious that it’s her and that doesn’t tell you anything. What it tells me is that someone outside of the PD needs to talk to her and that someone is you.

Look, all you gotta do is call her up, tell her how much you miss her, and then show her a good time. Ah, and then you can just steer, you know the pillow. Talk to biscuit though. And psychedelics. Hey. Yeah, look, Chanal, I mean this in the nicest way possible, but are you sure you’re not under the influence of some drug biscuits and psychedelics?

I feel for you. I really do. But you gotta forget about it because I’m not doing it. Oh, come on, Alex. Why not? It’s not like this is outta character for you. Oh, okay. Well, Aside from my general misgivings about this, I’m sort of hooking up with somebody else now. So when has that ever stopped? You just make it a threesome.

Y’all know you have experience with that. Ha on please, Alex. I would forgive you for everything that happened in the past. If you will, please just do whatever it takes to get me what I need to, to just to stop this nightmare with Sloan.

Connie. Everything’s gonna be okay. Trust me, you hold it right there. Shady missile toe. Uh, it’s lady whistleblower and I will not hold it right here or anywhere for the likes of you. You are such a bottom feeding hack, you know that. Oh, come on counselor. You can’t still be upset about that one little article I wrote about you ages ago.

Oh, you mean the one where you called me a psycho and, uh, accused me of going after Paulina Price? No. Shrugged it right off. Of course, I’m still mad at you. Well, first off, I’m not a hack. And second, the bottom happens to be where the good stuff is. Oh, I’m well aware. That’s why I stopped you just now, huh?

Mm. I figured you’d want some dirt for your next column. What kind of dirt? The police commissioner and his favorite new detective. Trust me, it practically writes itself. You forgot it was the same night. Hmm. Jose, we opened up to each other about our feelings. Yeah, I, I did. Right. Well, anyway, um, it was really awkward here, so I went straight home.

You know, the next day you were drugged from those biscuits. Yeah. Sorry, again about my behavior. It’s, it’s fine. Um, anyway, um, The point is I remember exactly what time it was, and I know for a fact that my sister did not come straight home from Paulina prices that night. Okay. Well, obviously you’re convinced that Talia isn’t telling us the truth, so what do you wanna do about it?

I don’t know, like getting involved in everything. It’s kind of the last thing I expected moving to New York. Right. But when we met, there was an immediate connection. At least for me anyway, um, I think putting my medical career on hold kind of proves that I felt it too. I’m gonna make this up to you, Talia.

I swear. Don’t worry, no one’s suspicious.

Who is it? It’s my sister.

I don’t know why she would be calling. I literally just left her. Let her go to voicemail. Maybe she’ll leave a message. No, I always answer her phone calls.

Hello? There you are. I was wondering why you weren’t picking up. Oh, sorry, my phone was buried in my bag. What’s up? Remember when we said we might need to clear some things up? After your interview, you wanna clear some things up? It just a small point. Something you said to the commissioner. Something I told the commissioner wasn’t clear.

It’s about when you got home the night before, uh, the issue with the biscuits and after you had dinner at Chanel’s. You said you went straight home, but I was home after dinnertime. And you weren’t? Yeah, right. Um, I had a headache and um, I went to the drugstore and I got aspirin, but that couldn’t have taken that long.

You’re right. Sorry, I must have forgotten. Um, I was late because I took a walk to the lake. I thought that the night air might help my headache. Well, I guess it did because when you got home, you didn’t mention it. All I wanted to do by then was just to go to sleep. Anything else? I think that’s about it.

Great. Talk to you later. Right on. I’m not so sure

something wrong. You could say that

the commissioner. Commissioner Hernandez, Mr. Straighten arrow, accent on the strait. Sadly, the very one, forget it. People read my column for dirt on people like you not Captain America. Oh, I mean, You don’t think that they would wanna read on Captain America as you put it? Hi on drugs and macing on his lead.

Detective, please tell me it is Detective Sean Brady. No, it was Jada Hunter. Ah, boring. Who cares about a little tongue between coworkers. That tongue flies right in face of Mayor Carver’s new fraternization policy. I thought that just meant they couldn’t be in the Elks or Shriners or something. What it means is that you could launch a campaign to get Mayor Carver to have to enforce his own policy against one of his greatest political allies and a close friend.

You could blow up the Mayor’s office and the Salem pd. I’d be like, Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford put together. You’d be a real force in Salem. One to be reckoned with, feared, and you’d get exactly what you wanted. The two cops who were on your ass would be out on theirs perhaps. But most importantly, I just think everybody should know the truth, don’t you?

The thing is, when Nicole succumbeded to Xander’s Charmer, whatever you want to call it, she was settled with an arrogant. Self-absorbed neglectful husband. That would be, that would be me.

I don’t know. I think my situation with Chloe and me is a lot more like yours in Napoles than you think. More than I’d like to think. Meaning you call yourself a neglectful husband. I haven’t exactly been the best boyfriend either. Alright. Kristen and Rachel have been treating. Chloe liked dirt while I’ve just pretty much been sitting back and saying, Hey, Chloe, you’re gonna have to deal with it.

You know, why don’t just play this my way? Hey, let me tell you something. I wish somebody would’ve told me, forget Sandra, he’s not the problem. He’s a. Here’s a symptom. Yeah, I’m the problem.

Oh God. Dunno why you’re slow. You eager to move. I mean, Salem end’s great. Yeah, it’s a little too great, especially when the bill arrives and I’m outta work and I’m just, I’m running through my savings. But it’s more than that. I, so, Well, it’s an in, it’s a place you stay when you’re on your way somewhere else.

But I’m not going anywhere and I’m not going anywhere with Brady, certainly not with Rachel. I don’t have a job. I don’t have a life, and I just, I want something someplace. It’s yours. Yeah. But not that I can afford it, and to be honest, I’m, I’m just worried that I’m gonna end up in a place like this. So you need a place that’s a step down from where you live, and I need to step up and why don’t you take that step together.

You mean we can find a place together? Oh, Xander, that sounds horrifying. You know, I actually thought you’d sparked the idea. Okay. Well, you’ve just recently been nice to me and. Since I did dart you, I’m not gonna dwell on the fact that this place is a pigsty, but I’m gonna point out the obvious, which is you own a newspaper and I am basically broke.

So you wouldn’t wanna live in a place where I can afford half the rent. We wouldn’t, we wouldn’t split rent. We, I know you don’t have a job, so just make wherever we find look like I don’t live there, and we’ll call that REM for the time being. Oh. Sounds like you need a housekeeper, not a roommate, Chloe.

Um, look, one of the most irritating things about becoming your friend and getting to really like you, is I want to atone for what I did to you and a bunch of other people. So in that sense, you’d actually be doing me a favor if you allowed me to give a ma helping hand when she’s, as you say, Basically broke.

That’s Hannah. That’s it’s very sweet. I swear it’d be totally, completely platonic and, and this is very hard for me to say, but I will be neater, not just neater. How about cleaner? So we are now officially in negotiation.

You’re in sex. Therapy with allie’s. Grandma, it’s not sex therapy, it’s therapy. It’s not funny. All right. It’s a little bit funny. All right. Okay. And I know you got a million things you can throw on my face right now, and I’m sure it looks utterly ridiculous. Me telling you, no, you can’t ask me to use sex for nefarious purpose.

Well, we both know it wouldn’t be the first time. No, it would not here. You’re serious about this, aren’t you? Yeah, I am. After I started speaking to Dr. Evans, she’s starting to make me realize that, uh, I’m pretty screwed up and Chanel, as much as I would love to help you throw Sloan back in her cage, please do not ask me to sleep with her.

Or I’m gonna end up right back where I started.

Honey, you look so glm. Come on Talia. We were a great team. We totally dodged a bullet. No we didn’t. What do you mean? We were completely in sync? I was all like, and you said, oh, I just had to take a walk around the lake. What you said you were reading my mind. No, it was more like Jada was reading mine. My sister knows me, like the back of a book, Colin.

I don’t just forget things. I don’t get through med school by forgetting. What are you saying? I’m saying that my alibi that night can’t be, I just forgot that won’t fly. Especially since I came up with it after the fact. Then why didn’t you account for it in the first place?

I am sorry. Okay. I guess I just, just wasn’t thinking. Yeah. Yeah, you weren’t thinking, look, it’s just that they separated me and Chanel and I didn’t know what they were saying to her, what she said. And then I was dealing with the commissioner. Babe. Let’s just, my, my charm just didn’t work on him. Okay. No, no.

I, I get it. It’s just, this is really important to me cuz that bitch killed my mother. You, you do get that right? Uh, I thought so before I got here. But now, but now what? I don’t know Colin. I’m just confused. Okay. Cuz I actually know Paulina and Chanel now and hey, they seem like really nice people. They seem nice.

Talia, do you not know an act when you see one? I don’t think it was just an act. Okay. I, Chanel told me about everything that happened in London unless she told you. If she pushed my mother off a roof, then she did not tell you everything unless she told you that her rich mommy flew to London and paid for everything to be covered up.

Then she did not tell you everything.

I’m sorry. I I, I just, I get so worked up. This is obviously so triggering for me. Yeah, this is extremely. Important. Look, I know that. Okay. I do. I promise. I just need to ask you one thing. Yeah. Are you still on my side?

Jada was bothering him. This is vague, but it didn’t feel like I was talking to my sister. Alright, what can you figure out why Talia’s always a stream of consciousness all over the map, but there is these hesitations when she was answering my questions. Maybe she was just trying to remember. No, no.

Talia’s memory is scary. She remembers what she did for her 12th birthday party, but, but now she forgets that she had a headache and then she forgot that she walked around the lake. Wait, she said that? Yeah. Yeah. And she’s also the one who forgot to set the security systems. All this from someone who never forgets a thing.

All right, Jada, if this is too much, I can put you on another case. The department cannot ask, you cannot ask any officer to investigate their own. No, no. Thanks for the golfer, but it’s too late to back off now.

You need to have a little bit more faith in Chloe Xander. Yeah, he may be making a play for her, but she more than most knows exactly what he is capable of. You’re right. No, you’re right. After what that jerk put her through, I can’t imagine she would involve herself with him and she knows what he, what he did to Nicole and how much Nicole regretted getting involved with him.

Exactly. And Chloe’s not gonna let. Xander entered her life in any meaningful way. Yeah. No, you’re right. Whatever they, they hang out. They play darts. It’s not like they’re moving in together. Right.

Well, this place looks pretty promising, doesn’t it? Nice fuse. Plenty of immunities. I mean, it couldn’t do any harm to go look at it, right? I guess not. Let’s do those future room, lets find a place and move in together.

No more jokes about it, I promise. And for what it’s worth, I think it’s, you know, uh, brave they are going to therapy. I agree. Although I’m not really sure I wanna know. Who I really am

enough about me. You’re going through hell right now. Is there, like, how about I float you along? Something to just keep the business going until everything gets, you know, blown over. That is, that is very, very sweet of you. But I, I can get a loan from my mom and besides all the money in the world, can’t buy me back my customers.

But you know, as, as much as all this sucks on the bright side. You offer me a loan, which is like, so generous. And then my new employee, I, I told her that I couldn’t afford to pay her. And you know what she said? Hmm? She said that she would work for free. Wow. That’s amazing. She’s amazing. And you know, she’s, she’s only worked here for a short time, but it’s just like, like this whole thing has hit her just as hard as it’s hit me.

You can’t let Chanel and her mom get into your head. Okay. And babe, we have nothing to feel guilty about with a good gas here. Yeah, but maybe we should just back off a bit, you know? Give things time to just go away. No, we can’t do that. Have to keep, apply pressure. You just have to be really careful of what you say to your sister.

Yeah, yeah, of course. Bye. I should get going.

I need you. I can’t do any of this without you now. I love you, right?

I love you too. Here’s my girl.

Oh, hey, uh, you work at sleeps, right? I met you the other day, Talia. Yeah, that’s, that’s me. Hmm. Sweetness. Are you the one that sold her a tainted biscuit? I did, and I’m sorry. I’m really, I’m really sorry. Was that really necessary? I didn’t even eat the biscuit. That poor girl just works there. It’s not like it’s her fault.

I just keep thinking. My sister gets out of medical school, becomes a baker’s assistant in Salem. And as a doctor, she would have access to the drugs that were put in that dough. Okay, but why? Hm. She didn’t even know Chanel until she got here. They seemed to get along and well, she sure doesn’t seem like a disgruntled employee.

Yeah, she always told me that she loved that job. Okay, so what’s her motive? Hmm? Why would she decide to drug half the town? You know, you’re right. You’re right. It, it makes no sense. It has to be someone else, someone with a real motive. Which brings us back to Sloan Peterson. So the cops are all over you because of the sweet bit’s druggie incident.

Yeah. Especially because of the way you went after Paulina Price. Hmm. Look, I couldn’t break into Paulina’s office and I didn’t drug those bloody biscuits. And yet what better way to get the commissioner and his lead detective off your ass by getting them thrown off the force. Look, I saw those two with my own two eyes.

All you have to do is keep my name out of it and quote, anonymous source. You really think a column by me is gonna be enough to throw the investigation off track? Let’s find out, shall we?

Michael: Jack, they’re doing an autopsy. Until it’s finished, none of these findings are conclusive. But according to my source, it appears to be a homicide.

Phyllis: Hey, baby. I know it’s a shock. I know it’s a shock.

Summer: I got– I got this call from somebody offering to explain what happened to my mom. But I didn’t know that it was you. It didn’t sound like you.

Phyllis: I was in a coffee shop, and I– I gave the waitress some money. She’s the one who called you. That was the only way I could know that you would get here alone.

Summer: Oh, my god. Daniel, he was just–

Phyllis: No, no, no. We’re not calling da– shh, shh. We’re not calling daniel. You’re the only one who can know I’m alive.

Summer: Not even daniel?

Phyllis: No, not even daniel. I can’t trust him.

Summer: What? What do you mean?

Phyllis: It’s not that he’s not trustworthy. Listen, baby, he’s going through so much right now and he might want to do the right thing, you know what I mean? And tell people about my secret.

Summer: No. Daniel is going through hell right now, mom.

Phyllis: Summer, listen to me. You’re the only one who can know that I’m alive. I mean it. You’re the only one I can trust. You’re the only one who can know what happened. And what I need to do because of it from this moment forward.

Additional sponsorship provided by…

Summer: I don’t understand. You can come home now. What else needs to happen?

Phyllis: Oh, summer, there’s so much I need to explain to you.

Summer: No, mom, you need to listen to me. Whatever this is, this– this stunt that you pulled. You’ve hurt so many people. And daniel and I have been devastated, but we need you. So whatever you did, it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter to me. And it’s not going to matter to anyone who loves you.

Phyllis: [ Laughing ] Summer, um–

Summer: No! The only thing that matters, mom, is that you’re alive. You’re alive! And you’re– and you’re going to come home with me.

[ Phyllis sniffling ]

Audra: I had no idea. You know, I see you as such a pro, I forget you’re on a learning curve, too. Maybe I can tag along on the next trip.

Nate: Thanks for understanding.

Audra: I’ll hold the ship afloat while you’re gone.

Nate: I appreciate that, audra.

Audra: Oh, you know, I wonder if elena might be able to join you, you know, since she couldn’t make it last time. I bet she will love to go.

Nick: I hadn’t thought about inviting elena. I wouldn’t want to seem unprofessional by asking if my girlfriend could tag along.

Audra: Oh, um, I’m sorry. I might have misunderstood. I just thought that you invited her last time you were traveling on business.

Nick: I did. Good thing she couldn’t make it because it was nonstop work. She would have been bored stiff.

Jack: Homicide?

Michael: Apparently.

Jack: How is that– how can they know for sure?

Michael: No longer being the D.A., I can only get so much information. My source was taking a risk by telling me as much as she did.

Jack: Wow. There’s a lot to wrap my head around.

Michael: Yeah, join the club.

Jack: If they think it’s murder, there’s going to be a full out investigation, right?

Michael: By the local sheriff’s department? Yes. Since the lake itself is in an unincorporated area.

Jack do the authorities have any leads? Can they tie phyllis’ murder to stark’s death in any way?

Michael: You know as much as I do, and I don’t have a whole lot to go on, jack. But what I do know, what I do know, in terms of diane’s defense, this is a double edged sword.

Jack: That makes no sense. I would think stark’s death would indicate there was much more at play. Especially if he’s murdered.

Michael: All right, listen–

Jack: Diane is out of commission. I mean, unless somebody thinks she’s a mob boss who can call a hit inside prison and have it carried out while she’s in there. No. Basic– basic intelligence would tell you she’s not involved in that. She didn’t kill stark, she didn’t kill phyllis. And this latest development–

Michael: Jack! Jack, until I learned more about stark’s murder, I don’t know what any of this means.

Jack: At least we know this guy can’t testify against her in court.

Michael: True. However, he also can’t exonerate her. We used to struggle with greasy messes.

Nick: Dad actually warned you about mccall and what would happen if you didn’t acquire it?

Victoria: It wasn’t so much a warning as an I told you so. Just tell me, please, that you turned down his offer.

Nick: Vic, come on. There’s no way I’m bailing on you to go and babysit adam. I’m pretty sure mom’s not going anywhere either.

Victoria: Can you imagine our mother and adam running a company together? That’ll be the day. So what else did dad have to share? Any other suggestions that I should know about?

Nick: Uh, didn’t learn much, except that mccall seems to be in shambles, and… he thinks adam’s going to need the full support of the family to write the ship.

Victoria: He’s gonna need a lot more than that.

Nick: I actually think this was just some play to get me and adam to back away from sally.

Victoria: Yes, that seems about right.

Nick: Once I realized what he was up to, I rejected his offer and walked out.

Victoria: You know, leave it to our father to buy an entire conglomerate so he can try to manipulate all the people around him.

Nick: He doesn’t seem to know when he needs to let people manage their own lives. And with a baby on the way, it’s just going to get worse. He can’t see it. I mean, the more he pushes sally away, the more he risks being shut out of his granddaughter’s life.

Phyllis: Listen to me. Okayyou need to listen to me. I wish I could come home… but unfortunately, it can’t happen.

Summer: Why? None of this makes any sense.

[ Phyllis sighing ]

Phyllis: I made some mistakes. [ Sighing ] I did some stupid things. I trusted the wrong man.

Summer: Stark?

Phyllis: Yeah.

Summer: Tell me what happened.

Phyllis: He manipulated me, you know? Um… he played on my deepest, darkest fears, you know? And he convinced me to marry him and then we had this plan to take diane down and put her in prison for the rest of her life.

Summer: Mom… what have you done?

Phyllis: I don’t know. I’m just being honest with you. I’m just being honest, summer.

Summer: How did you think that it was gonna–

Phyllis: I wasn’t thinking. I was out of my mind. I wasn’t thinking. Then, when I finally came to my senses… and I told him I didn’t want to go forward with the plan anymore, he threatened me. He was gonna kill me.

Jack: The more I think about it, the more I believe that stark’s death proves diane didn’t kill phyllis.

Michael: I don’t understand your logic, jack. Yeah, I agree that diane being in jail rules her out as a suspect in stark’s murder, but how? How does that absolve her of phyllis’s death?

Jack: To me, it’s obvious. Phyllis is poisoned. Days later, stark is murdered. That’s just a coincidence? Come on, one person could have killed both of them.

Michael: There’s no evidence to suggest that.

Jack: Yet. And maybe there never will be any. But think about it. Stark is a known criminal, out on parole, involved in fraud and money laundering and god knows what else on an international scale. He’s been hanging out with some very dangerous people who are experts at hiding evidence. Maybe he crossed one of them. His past caught up with him and phyllis. I’m steve, I lost 138 pounds in nine months on golo

Michael: I get why stark would be the target of a killer, but why phyllis?

Jack: I don’t know. Diane was never certain where stark got the funding to carry out his schemes. Whoever he was dealing with back then maybe felt shorted when he went to prison and they wanted their money back. And maybe that was the money that he was pressuring diane for.

Michael: If that were the case, why wouldn’t stark have taken the money you offered him initially?

Jack: No, that was a direct response to diane. A not-so-veiled threat that this is about more than just money.

Michael: Even if your theory were correct, despite the lack of evidence, it only accounts for a hit on stark. Again, why phyllis?

Jack: She was his new wife. Whoever these people are came to town knowing that his former partner in crime lived in genoa city. Maybe they thought that was phyllis.

Michael: It was diane.

Jack: Well, we know that. They thought they were looking for taylor jensen. Any woman in town could have been taylor jensen. Maybe phyllis’s murder is a case of mistaken identity. Maybe she’s just collateral damage.

Michael: Jack, I know you’re looking for an answer, but that is not it. There is a mountain of evidence that exists, and it points to a premeditated crime perpetrated by diane.

Jack: I will do anything I can to get justice for phyllis. I feel she deserves at least that from me. Diane didn’t do this. I have to defend her.

Michael: Okay, jack, the two of us are committed to the same two causes. Justice for phyllis and diane. But right now, we only know one thing. Diane is the only suspect in phyllis’s murder that is still alive to talk about it.

Nate: Hi.

Elena: Hey. Your message said you have some news. What’s up?

Nate: I have to go home and pack.

Elena: Okay. Why? I’m heading to L.A. For work.

Elena: For how long?

Nate: Just a few days. But when I get back, I would love to go somewhere with you. A short vacation, you know? One week, just the two of us. Where would you like to go?

Elena: Okay, wait, back up. So, you’re going away on business?

Nate: Wall to wall meetings out west with some streamers we’d like to acquire. But I realize what I really want to do right now is get away with you somewhere. You know? No work involved.

Elena: I see.

Nate: We’ve been kicking it around for quite a while now. Why not make it happen?

Elena: We can discuss it. But who is we?

Nate: What do you mean?

Elena: Well, you just said that there are some streamers on the west coast that we would like to acquire, so I’m wondering, are you going alone or are you going with someone else?

Victoria: You know, it makes no difference what you and sally think. Once that baby arrives, there’s no way in hell that you’re gonna be able to keep it away from dad. Not to mention, this is not your fight. Sally and adam are the parents, so really, it’s up to them.

Nick: Thank you for the reminder.

Victoria: It’s the truth, nick. Hey, um, I’m gonna be going to los angeles for a couple of days, and I need you to take the reins. I hope that’s not too much to ask.

Nick: Sure. Mom going with you?

Victoria: No, she’ll be here.

Nick: Well, she’s the co-ceo. Shouldn’t she be in charge?

Victoria: Look, we both know how much she loves seeing you in more of a leadership role. So the job is yours for a couple of days. Deal with it.

[ Nick chuckling ]

Nick: Okay. Um… you going alone?

Victoria: No. Did you have a chance to look over those p&l reports that I sent you?

Nick: Hold up. If mom’s not going out of town, who are you going with? Don’t tell me–

Victoria: I know what I’m doing, nick. Leave it alone.

Summer: Why didn’t you come to me before? Why didn’t you tell me that stark was making threats? Jack got all this extra security for us. He could have had you covered, too.

Phyllis: Jack wouldn’t have lifted a finger for me. And then, you and daniel… I thought you hated me. I thought everyone hated me.

[ Summer sighing ] And that prompted me to do something really… stupid and idiotic, you know?

Summer: Mom, daniel and I, we never hated you. Yes, we disagreed with you, but, mom, we love you. We’ve been wrecks since that night.

Phyllis: I know. I know. I’ve been watching you. I saw how much pain you were in. I’m so sorry. [ Sobbing ] That’s why I needed to meet with you. I wanted you to know that I am okay. I couldn’t go through with it. And listen, I understand. I really understand if you and your brother hate me and never want to forgive me.

Summer: No, no. Those days are over, mom. That’s not gonna happen. We are on your side, no matter what.

[ Phyllis sighing ]

Phyllis: Summer… when you find out what I did… I don’t think you’re gonna feel that way. I don’t think you’re gonna be on my side.

Summer: Mom… how guilty are you? Welcome to my digestive system.

“The young and the restless” will continue.

Nick: You telling me to leave it alone makes me ten times more concerned.

Victoria: Okay, let me make this easy for you. As ceo of newman media, nate will be accompanying me to los angeles. The meetings that we will be attending pertain to the various streaming platforms that we would like to acquire. While I could certainly handle them on my own, it makes sense that the head of newman media would be present, don’t you think?

Nick: I’m sure you know all of the reasons why this is a terrible idea.

Victoria: And I’m sure that you’re aware that I’m really not interested in your opinion.

Nate: So yeah, I’ll be on my own in california.

Elena: Sounds dull. Wish I could join you.

Nate: Too last minute, huh?

Elena: Yeah, but when you get back, I should be able to take some time off.

Nate: Great. Any thoughts on where you’d like to go?

Elena: No, but I’ll look into it while you’re away. Maybe something scenic, maybe something intimate. You have any preferences?

Nate: Surprise me. As long as I’m with you, I’ll be happy.

Elena: That’s really sweet of you.

Nate: Okay, let me get home and figure out what I’m packing.

Elena: Mm, I hear cali’s having a heat wave, so it should be pretty hot.

Nate: I will keep that in mind. Bye-bye.

Phyllis: Well, what I did, it’s not important. The important thing is that jeremy stark manipulated the whole situation to make it look like…

[ Sighing ] It was all me. If anybody found out about what we did, I would be the one who would be implicated.

Summer: So… none of it was real? The poison, the… the ambulance crash, it wasn’t–

Phyllis: No, it wasn’t real.

[ Summer sighing ]

Summer: So, if you’re alive, and all of that was fake… that means that diane’s innocent.

Phyllis: Diane’s innocent? There’s nothing innocent about diane. Everything diane touches dies. Everything. She lies, manipulates. She drives wedges between people. Good god, you know that now. Jack and ashley, me and jack, you and me, you and kyle. You’re either on diane’s side or you are her victim.

Summer: I know, I know. God. I know diane has been causing problems for me and kyle way before this.

Phyllis: And the worst thing she did, she let her son believe that she was dead for years and years. He’s still dealing with the aftermath of that.

Summer: You just did that exact thing. Mom, you faked your own death. You– you– you abandoned your children.

Phyllis: My children are adults. They’re not little kids. And I couldn’t go through with it. I’m here now. But diane let kyle believe that she was dead for years. I would never do that to a little child, who doesn’t understand death or loss.

Summer: God, just… I can’t believe that your priorities are so out of whack that you would let us all suffer like that. You would let the people who love you believe that you’re dead. No. Mom. You’re coming home with me, okay? You’re going to make things right with everyone in genoa city.

Phyllis: I can’t do that. You don’t know the whole story.

Summer: If it’s because of stark, if it’s because you’re afraid of him, you don’T… you don’t have to worry about that anymore. He’s dead, so he can’t hurt you. And everything else we can straighten out. I promise you that.

Phyllis: They found him. Oh, no, I thought I’d have more time.

Summer: Found him?

Phyllis: Jeremy stark is the reason I can’t return to genoa city. Because… I’m the reason he’s dead.

Jack: Hey, I’m sorry for coming by after visiting hours, but I pulled a few strings because this can’t wait.

Diane: Why are you here again?

Jack: I have news.

Diane: I told you I don’t want to see you. Nothing’s changed.

[ Sighing ] Why are you doing this to me?

Jack: I am here because I love you. Because we have spent too many years apart and I don’t want to spend another day without you. And I think the news I have might actually get you out of here.

Sometimes, the lows

of bipolar depression

Diane: I don’t want you here, jack. It’s not your choice. You don’t have a say. I’m the one in the cell. I’m the one who’s staring at these walls and I am telling you to stay away.

Jack: Once you hear what we’ve discovered–

Diane: You know what? I don’t care what it is. Michael can tell me.

[ Scoffing ] Don’t you get it? My life is over. There is nothing left to be done, and the sooner you accept that, the sooner we can all just move on.

Jack: Don’t do this. Don’t push away the people who love you. You can’t give up.

Diane: This is not about giving up. It’s about doing what’s best for my family and not subjecting you to the pain of my experiences. You all did just fine in the past without me being in your lives and you can do the same again. And that’s the way it has to be.

Summer: You didn’t– you didn’t kill jeremy stark.

Phyllis: I’m afraid I did.

Summer: Why? H– how?

Phyllis: You and daniel were in so much pain. I couldn’t go through with the plan. And then he told me if I pulled out of the plan and I sent him back to prison, well, he would never let that happen. And he said killing me was A… a victimless crime.

Summer: He said that to you?

Phyllis: Yeah, he did. He put his hands on me. And he said that I was his now.

Summer: Oh, my god, mom.

Phyllis: And the whole thing would cost me. And I tried to escape. And he stopped me. And he pushed me away. And he picked up scissors and he came toward me and he was gonna slice my throat. He was gonna kill me. Summer, I couldn’t let that happen. I couldn’t let it happen. I couldn’T. And he was strong, but I was desperate. I was desperate, and I took my nails and I put them into his face. And I took those scissors.

[ Gasping ] And it went black. I don’t even remember. I don’t even remember, but it went black. And I looked down and he was in a pool of blood. I killed him to protect myself.

[ Summer exhaling ] I didn’t want to die.

Summer: What– what– what did you do then?

Phyllis: I cleaned up the room and I wrapped him in the shower curtain. I made it look like one of his criminal buddies from prison did it.

Summer: Oh…

[ Phyllis gasping ] I sealed my fate. I can never go home. I have to come up with a plan to fix this.

Summer: No, mom, I’m not gonna let you think like that. It’s not too late. We can go to the police and we can make them understand what happened.

Phyllis: No. Shh. Shh. Stop it. That’s not gonna happen. Okay? You got it? That’s not gonna happen. You must never, ever tell a soul about this.

Nick: You may not want my opinion, but I’m gonna give it to you anyway.

Victoria: Of course you are.

Nick: This is a mistake. You taking nate on this trip with you, you can call it business all you want.

Victoria: Because it is.

Nick: Are we really gonna play this game? You’re obviously involved with this guy.

Victoria: I have known nate for a long time. We’re friends. We’re colleagues. That’s it.

Nick: Oh, come on, vic.

Victoria: Stay out of it, nick. It’s none of your business.

[ Nick scoffing ]

Nick: You know, we both know when you mix business with pleasure, you tend to, uh, throw judgment out the window.

Victoria: I can’t believe you went there. Nate is nothing like ashland. And by the way, you’ve been in the same exact position before, so don’t be such a hypocrite.

Nick: How long do you think it’s gonna be before people realize you’re having a fling with your subordinate?

Victoria: Well, I don’t know. How long before people noticed that you and sally were together? (Vo) red lobster’s finer points of fun dining:

Nick: There are some clear and obvious differences with you and nate and me and sally, but let’s just forget about that for a second. I’m sure you think you have control of this situation. I think you’re playing with fire. Everything is going great for you right now, vic, but you feel like you gotta take this big risk.

Victoria: Don’t be ridiculous.

Nick: He’s got a girlfriend. He’s got this whole life outside of newman media. I mean, what are you doing? Are you working towards a relationship with this guy, or are you just having fun?

Victoria: You know, nick, just as you asked me to respect your privacy with sally, I would ask you for the same courtesy.

Nick: I care about you, all right?

Victoria: I care about you, too, even when you’re a complete knucklehead.

Nick: Well, I can’t shake the feeling that you’re about to blow up everything that you’ve worked so hard for.

Victoria: Well, I’m sorry. You’ll have to excuse me if I don’t see it that way. So, are we finished? I have a lot I have to do before I go to los angeles.

Nick: Yeah, sure. Safe travels. Of course, I will look after everything while you’re gone.

Victoria: I appreciate that.

Nick: I really hope you don’t end up regretting this trip.

[ Victoria sighing ]

Elena: This is dr. Dawson.

Audra: Hey, it’s audra. Uh, where are you? Did I catch you at a bad time?

Elena: Oh, I’m just catching up on some cases, and apparently I have to go home and help nate pack for his trip to los angeles. You know, things are actually getting better between us.

Audra: Really?

Elena: Yeah. He’s been really sweet lately. Um, if you have time for coffee tomorrow, I can catch you up on it.

Audra: Can’t wait.

Jack: I know you have spent a lot of your adult life on your own. Living a secret life with no one you could trust, no one you could count on. Was just you against the world. I am offering you a way out of that, if you will let me. My purpose these days, my purpose in life, is to be the man you can depend on. To do everything in my power to see that you walk out of here a free woman and I am not staying away. I’m not. Not now, not ever. And not because you need me. Because I need you.

Diane: Jack…

Jack: Marry me.

Diane: What?

Jack: I’m serious. We’re already engaged. Let’s seal the deal. Let’s do it now, sooner rather than later, before the trial. I want to be your husband through every moment of this ordeal. But you have to trust me. Believe in me. Marry me.

Phyllis: Listen to me. If you tell anyone that I am alive, diane will get off. And I will pay and pay and pay. The authorities will hunt me down. They will not stop until they find me and I will spend the rest of my life in prison, or I’ll be looking over my shoulder. Is that what you want for me?

Summer: I don’t want to lie to the people that I love. But I don’t want to lose you, either. I can’T. I can’t lose you again. I don’t have the strength to do that. Mom, I need you.

Phyllis: I’m sorry, baby. I’m sorry I put this in your hands. I’m sorry I put you in this position. It’s not fair.

Summer: No, it’s not fair. I’m just scared. I’m scared that if you don’t come with me right now and clear all of this up, I’m just scared that I’m never gonna see you again.

Phyllis: Ah, no, no. I don’t intend for that to happen. That will never happen, okay? All right? Hey, listen to me. It all boils down to this, okay? You either save your mother-in-law… or you save me. All right? Because if I reveal myself, diane will be exonerated and my life will be over. Or… you give me time to come up with a plan that works. Summer, all I need is time. I just need time, okay? Can you do that? Listen. Whatever you decide… I love you, supergirl. All right? Whatever you decide, I love you. I’ll never stop loving you. ‘Kay? I have to go.

Steffy: Amelia has the kids. Oh, we could go back to bed. Pick up where we left off.

Finn: Mm… I would love that more than you know. But my mom’s coming over.

Steffy: Yeah. Unless I call and reschedule.

Steffy: It is tempting.

Finn: Yeah?

Steffy: But I have plans, too. I have some unfinished business with someone.

[ Alarm buzzing ]

Sheila: [ Sighs ] You’ve got to find a way out of here.

Bill: So, let me get this straight. The two of you, on your own, without consulting me, acquired a streaming channel that no one is watching.

Wyatt: Well, I mean, I wouldn’t say no one’s watch– that’s why we got it so cheap. Do you see? Liam?

Liam: Uh, right. Yeah. So– so we just figured instead of, you know, building a new one from the ground up, we would acquire and– and rebrand an existing channel devoted to all things fashion.

Wyatt: Yeah, I mean, just change direction. Update it a little bit. You know, movies, new and old. Documentaries that feature some of the famous designers and– and models throughout the years.

Liam: Uh, and, you know, interviews with up-and-coming influencers. Live coverage of– of shows.

Wyatt: All the award shows. It’S…

Liam: You hate it.

Liam and wyatt: He hates it.

Liam: That’s it.

Wyatt: Yeah, we gotta go back.

Bill: No. I love it.

Wyatt: What?

Bill: And besides, you guys deserve a new toy. You held down the fort at spencer publications while I appeared to be awol with sheila.

Wyatt: [Laughs] Yeah.

Bill: I’m proud of you guys.

Liam: Thanks, dad.

Wyatt: Aw, look at this guy. We’re glad to have you back.

Liam: Personally and professionally.

Wyatt: Yeah.

Bill: Well, no one’s happier than I am. I lost precious time, those… disgusting months with sheila. And I want to get it back. Starting with the time I lost with my katie.

[ Katie moans sleepily ]

Carter: Morning, sunshine.

Katie: Morning. Are you watching me sleep?

Carter: Mm. What can I say? I love looking at you.

Katie: I like looking at you.

Liam: So, uh, katie, huh?

Wyatt: So, she’s back on your agenda?

Bill: Never left it. I just got sidetracked. But I’m back now. What?

Liam: No– nothing. No, it’s just, uh… I don’t think– we don’t want to be negative.

Wyatt: No. Never.

Liam: But–

Wyatt: No. Yeah, just, you– you have a history with, um–

Liam: With katie. And– and with brooke. And…

Wyatt: Yeah. You– you really– you really believe you have another shot with katie?

Bill: Absolutely.

Carter: [ Chuckles] Ah, waking up, you… sleeping beside me…

[ Katie chuckles ] I done something right.

Katie: Mm.

Carter: Starting my day gazing at such beauty.

Katie: [ Giggles ] Well, you make me feel beautiful. That’s not all you make me feel.

Finn: You’re going to see sheila?

Steffy: Yeah.

Finn: Why?

Steffy: I have a few things I need to say to that murdering psycho. I just want to see her. I wanna see her behind bars. Finally caged like the animal she is.

Sheila: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, O.C. Keller. Any chance that I can get back on the, uh– the prison computer system? You know, I sent an email earlier. I want to see if I got a response.

Guard: Can’T. Visitor scheduled.

Sheila: Who?

Guard: You just gotta wait and see. Still living with odors?

Finn: Look, I just– I don’t like the idea of you being alone in a room with sheila.

Steffy: It’s prison. There’ll be guards. You have nothing to worry about. Though I love that you do.

Finn: Just what– why don’t you let me come with you?

Steffy: I want you to have a nice time with your mom. I’ll be fine.

Finn: Okay.

Steffy: ‘Kay. I love you. I’ll be fine.

Finn: I love you. All right.

Katie: [ Moans ] Why can’t we just stay like this? Just stay in bed all day long?

Carter: That would be awesome.

Kate: Mm.

Carter: But duty calls for me, and you have a date with bill. [ Chuckles ]

Katie: Oh, my god, it’s not a date. He just– he just wants to talk.

Carter: Yeah. Keep telling yourself that.

Katie: Maybe we’ll just talk about will.

Carter: Mm. You know that’s not true.

Katie: I’m sorry if it bothers you.

Carter: It doesn’T. I just don’t trust bill.

Katie: Well, I have a question.

Carter: Shoot.

Katie: Why are we talking about bill?

Carter: Bill who?

Katie: Hmm.

[ Giggles ]

Bill: You guys want a water?

Liam: Ah, no, we’re good.

Wyatt: Thank you. You– you and katie ha– have been through a lot together and– and not all good. Well, that could be said of any couple, wyatt.

Wyatt: True.

Liam: Uh, well, you know, I– I’m not sure just any husband falls for the wife’S… sister.

Wyatt: Yeah, dad. I mean, katie hasn’t been the same ever since you were with brooke.

Bill: Yeah, I know. I know, wyatt. I broke katie’s trust. But I can win it back.

Liam: Oh, he sounds really sure about it.

Bill: All I need is time and access.

Wyatt: And I take it that katie hasn’t been giving you either?

Bill: Not yet. But that’ll change. Not overnight. But I will get another chance with katie, and I won’t blow it next time.

Liam: And what about carter?

Bill: He’ll move on.

Wyatt: Well–

Liam: Okay.

Wyatt: I– it’s hard to argue with you when you’re this determined. You know, I mean, you have been known to pull off the impossible–

Liam: Technically, he just did.

Wyatt: Mm.

Liam: Right? With, you know, securing a confession from sheila, sending her back to prison for life.

Guard: Prison secure.

[ Door buzzing ]

Man on radio: Jail 5 and 7,

Steffy: Had to see you in your natural habitat. I gotta say.. suits you. (Music throughout)

Bill: First thing I’m gonna do when katie comes back to me is whisk her off to the stella maris. A month, maybe two. However long it takes for us to really rediscover each other.

Liam: Yeah, cool. That’s– yeah. That’s– yeah. I– I mean, uh, I don’t know. Katie might have some trouble getting away. It just depends on the timing, ’cause, like, as if– if, say, it conflicted with the hope for the future launch–

[Cross chatter]

Bill: All right, all right. Can you just slow your practicality roll and allow me to do my visualization.

Wyatt: You got a vision board for that?

[ Liam snorts with laughter ] Put it up in the–

Bill: Keep it up, clown.

Wyatt: ‘Kay.

Bill: Keep it up. But watch, the two of us on the stella maris, and either before or after, we’re gonna do some house hunting.

Wyatt: Wow. You– you are really planning ahead here.

Liam: Yeah. Yeah. Maybe too far, too fast.

Bill: Oh, here it comes.

Liam: I don’t know. Listen–

Bill: Here it comes.

Liam: I’m just– you– I love you. I’m just saying– I’m just saying it’s possible that you’re underestimating katie’s connection with carter.

[ Katie sighs ]

Katie: Wow.

Carter: Mm-hmm. You can say that again.

Katie: Ha. Okay. Wow. Mm, I think I have it solved.

Carter: What solved?

Katie: The problem with world peace.

Carter: [ Laughs ] Okay.

Katie. No, no. No more war. No more traffic-induced road rage. Even congress might get along. All they have to do is wake up with carter.

Carter: Mm.

Sheila: Problem solved.

Carter: I aim to please.

Katie: Seriously, no one could be in a bad mood after what we just did now.

Carter: Mm. You have a point.

[ Both moaning ] What’s that look?

Katie: I’m gonna ask a, um, slightly inappropriate question.

> Carter: Mm.

Katie: It’s just that I’m curious. What was it like with quinn?

[ Katie laughs ]

Li: So good to see you.

Finn: [ Chuckles] It’s only been, what, two days?

Li: Too long.

Finn: Hmm.

Li: Is this a rare day off for you?

Finn: Uh, I pulled a late night shift.

Li: Oh. So, you and steffy will pass each other at the door.

Finn: Hmm. Well, if we’re lucky.

Li: I know it’s challenging. You have the kids, two demanding careers. I assume that’s where steffy is right now, at forrester?

Finn: Actually, she’s at the prison. To see sheila.

Li: What? Why on the earth–

Finn: She wants to tell sheila how we really feel about her and the hell that she put us through. And not just steffy and me, mom. You, too.

Steffy: Surprised?

Sheila: So, why– why are you here, steffy? Are you here to berate me, humiliate me? Kick me while I’m down?

Steffy: Do I really have to choose?

Sheila: You could show just a little human compassion. You know, put yourself in my position, being set up by bill spencer. What if you found out finn never really loved you, that your whole life was just a scam?

Steffy: First of all, that would never happen. There’s no reason to scam me because I’m not a sociopathic killer. And second, hell will freeze over before I ever feel an ounce of sympathy for you. You’re getting everything you deserve. Okay everyone, our mission is complete balanced nutrition.

Liam: Listen, regardless of how it turns out with katie, it’s really nice to have dad back.

Wyatt: Yeah. Vision boards and all.

[ Liam laughs ]

Bill: Thank you, guys. And– and look, I– I have nothing against carter. He’s fine. He’s a good guy. He’s not good enough for katie, and I told them both, I will fight for the woman I love. For my family. And I will win. Katie will come back to me.

Carter: No. No. No, thank you. No. Pillow talk with you about quinn is a lose-lose situation. I’m gonna pass on that question.

Katie: Oh, come on. Come on.

Carter: No.

Katie: I’m a modern woman. I can talk to you about anything. And I’m just– I’m curious. It just– it was so out of character for you. So, I’m asking because I really want to know the answer. I mean, what was it with quinn? Was it just sex?

[ Carter grumbles ]

Carter: Looking back, it was a bad time for the both of us. Quinn and eric, they were having issues, and my love life kept blowing up in my face. And… we felt very unseen. Except when we were together. Just ignited. And it was the guiltiest I’ve ever felt in my life. But to answer your question, there was a powerful attraction and it made for incredible sex. But in the end, that’s all it was, because she left. This. This, katie. This is real. We just made love. That’s so much better. In fact, it’s the best thing ever.

Katie: You’re right. It was love. And it is the best.

Finn: Sheila has messed with your life a lot longer than you and I even knew. And I know how we don’t talk about it anymore, but I imagine it’s still painful. Knowing that dad had an affair with her. That sheila gave birth to me.

Li: Honestly… I wish I never found out. Sometimes ignorance really is bliss.

Finn: Yeah, this whole sheila thing really tore our whole family apart.

Li: You’re right. My marriage didn’t survive sheila. But you did. Steffy did. I did. I won’t let my mind dwell on the past. The only thing that matters now is that you, steffy, and my precious grandchildren are finally safe from sheila carter.

Sheila: How can you be so cold? Heartless? You know, your husband, son, and I, we all share the same blood. Instead of you respecting that and encouraging a relationship between finn and his mother, hayes and his grandmother, no, you shut me out at every turn.

Steffy: And I always will. Count on that. Oh, sheila, sheila, sheila. You have no one to blame but yourself. Your crimes finally caught up with you and landed you in prison. And now you’ll stay here for the rest of your miserable life. And as far as my family is concerned… you don’t exist. Hayes will never know you.

Sheila: No, that’s not true, because… I’m his grandmother. Finn isn’t gonna let you.

Steffy: If you actually think that, you’re delusional.

Sheila: He’s my son. Finn may be mad, but deep down, he loves me. He could’ve let me die when I had the heart attack. But he didn’t, he saved my life. What more proof do you need?

Steffy: Fins saved you because that’s what he does. He’s a kind, loving man who tries to see the best in people. Even worthless people like you. But I’ll remind him of what a monster you are. And then I’m gonna wipe you from his mind. We will never think about you or talk about you again. My children, they are not gonna know your name. You will be completely erased. Guard?

Sheila: I am going to be back. I am not going to be locked up in this place forever.

Steffy: Guard?

Sheila: You haven’t seen the last of me, steffy.

Sally: God, this is amazing. I mean, it’s just… amazing.

Nick: It is.

Sally: I mean, it’s like some kind of miracle that they can just take a picture of the baby, my baby, and here it is. In black and white. Its– its perfect little everything. And to hear the heartbeat again. Did you hear it?

Nick: Yeah, I did. Nice and strong.

Sally: Man, I… I thought I was in love with this little one before, but it’s–

Adam: It’s incredible.
[Chuckles] I can’t believe we’re having a little baby girl.

Adam: Doesn’t it look like she’s sucking her thumb?

Sally: [Laughs] Totally.

[Laughs]

Nick: I’m glad the appointment was moved from yesterday to today. Built up the anticipation.

Sally: I’m sorry, what?

Nick: I was saying, it really worked out that the sonogram was moved from yesterday to today.

[Chuckles] You know, this baby’s gonna be very lucky. It will be spoiled by every member of the Newman family.

Sally: Oh, yeah. Not really exactly ready to face that fact.

Adam: Yeah, why don’t you just let us enjoy this perfect moment before unleashing the threat of the Newmans?

Nick: I’m just saying. It’s gonna be loved.

Sally: Agreed. Yeah, our… little girl is going to have a whole lot of love. Some might say more than her fair share.

Adam: She’s already spectacular.

Sally: Little chamomile.

[Both laughing]

Sally: What’s up?

Nick: It’s nothing that can’t wait.

Sally: If you need to go deal with work, you can go. I mean, you were already here for the big reveal at the doctor’s office. If you need to go, go.

Nick: I probably should get it out of the way.

Sally: Okay, yeah. Don’t worry about me.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

[ Nate sighing ]

Adam: Dr. Nate hastings.

Nate: Adam. You know I don’t practice medicine anymore.

Adam: Ah. You’re right. You quit being a doctor to do something really important. Run a media company.

Nate: Is there something I can help you with?

Adam: So, things are going well over there at newman media?

Nate: Couldn’t be better.

Adam: That’s good. From my experience, you have everything you need to be successful at that company.

Nate: And what exactly would that be?

Adam: Well, you have two things going for you. One, you’re not a newman, and two, you’re not intimately intertwined with one. So, you’re in good shape.

Victoria: The operation budgets are still way too high.

Nikki: I will find a way to get them down ten percent.

Victoria: 15. Oh, my goodness. Am I in the wrong office or did we step back in time on a time machine to when victor newman was ceo?

Victor: I may be away from the office, but… I’m still in the ring. Always a contender.

Nikki: Well, hello darling. I didn’t know you were going to be here today.

Victor: I came here to tell you both some good news.

Nikki: Oh?

Victoria: I don’t really like the way he’s smiling right now.

Victor: You’re looking at the new owner of mccall unlimited.

Victoria: Oh. Is that all? You scared me for a minute, I thought it was something important.

Nikki: Now, victoria.

Victoria: He knows what I mean. Buying mccall is like buying a– a horse or, um, a car or like a trendy coffee machine. It’s fun for a minute, but it doesn’t really change the world.

Victor: And now it begins. The competition, I mean.

Nikki: Yes, of course.

Victoria: You know, if you’re still planning on putting adam in charge, that’s– that’s a relief. Because he’s certainly doomed to fail. Thankfully, it’s not gonna be on my watch. So, as far as I’m concerned, it’s a win-win situation.

Kyle: Love you, harrison. Hey. How are you feelin’?

Summer: Kyle–

Kyle: I’m sorry, I– I know I keep asking. It’s only because this isn’t who we are. I don’t even recognize us anymore, and I miss us.

Summer: I do too. Okay? I’ve been shut down, and I– I’ve shut you out, and I– I– I shouldn’t do that.

Kyle: No, but– but I understand why you would. You need time and space and I wanna give that to you. You know I would do anything for you.

Summer: I know.

Kyle: But you gotta let me in.

Summer: Kyle, I– I know. But right this second, I– I have to go.

Kyle: What? Go where?

Jack: Wait, first phyllis, and now jeremy stark died? How is that possible? Wait– wait a minute. How– how did he die? Was he poisoned?

Chance: I don’t have all the details right now. His body was found in a different jurisdiction.

Jack: So he was on the run. Was it an accident?

Chance: I don’t know. All I know is a fisherman found him washed up on the shore of pheasant lake, that’s it.

Jack: Well, this is some blow to the da’s case against diane. I guess there was somebody out here who wanted stark dead and didn’t mind taking phyllis with him.

Chance: Okay, don’t get ahead of yourself.

Jack: Oh, now you wanna slow things down? You didn’t waste a second arresting my fiancé. Now, you wanna take some time and look at the facts?

Chance: Nothing has changed. We go where the evidence leads us.

Jack: I knew you were on the wrong track. I told you as much. Take this as a lesson, detective. Things are not always as they seem.

Diane: Hi. You look like hell.

Michael: I’m too much of a gentleman to return the compliment.

Diane: No, no, it’s good. It means you’ve been up all night working on my case.

Michael: That I have.

Diane: Well, that’s what I wanna hear. Now, tell me how the hell we’re getting me out of this mess. Sometimes, the lows of bipolar depression

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…

Nate: I like to think I’m succeeding at newman media because of my own abilities.

Adam: Hm. You definitely are. I didn’t mean to offend you. But you have to admit, some of the big moves that you’ve been making are just an extension of what sally was implementing.

Nate: There’s some of that. But something I learned the first day of med school: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Adam: Hm. It’s good advice.

Nate: Listen, sally was a good fit for newman media. She was doing a good job. And I made a point of telling victoria that.

Adam: Ooh. I’m sure she loved that.

Nate: It was not well taken. But I want you to know that I didn’t go campaigning for this job.

Adam: No, no, don’t– don’t worry. Sally is much better off out of that snake pit. The constant stress of being under the newman microscope, every decision being challenged, relentlessly questioned. She doesn’t need that. Especially now that she’s pregnant.

Nate: From what I’ve seen, she doesn’t have a thing to worry about. Nick would do all he can to shield her and his baby from too much family scrutiny.

Adam: His baby? Oh. You didn’t know.

Nate: Know what?

Adam: Sally’s beautiful, unborn bundle of joy, she’s mine.

Victor: My darling, you will change your mind once you realize that mccall will give a number of newman divisions a run for their money.

Victoria: Okay, well, who doesn’t enjoy a little healthy competition? Bring it on.

Victor: Mark my word, you’ll be kicking yourself for not buying mccall when you had a chance to do so.

Victoria: You’re putting adam in charge, correct? So, if history truly has a way of repeating itself, I’m pretty sure you’re gonna be the one with all of the regrets, daddy.

Victor: Don’t be so cocky. Adam has changed. As the new head of this big conglomerate, and a baby on the way, he’d have a far greater sense of power. He’d be someone to be reckoned with. I promise you. I love you both. Don’t work too hard.

Victoria: He’s gone overboard. He has. Has he forgotten what adam is capable of? He has no idea how hideously this venture is going to fail.

Nikki: You’re disappointed that you lost mccall, aren’t you?

Victoria: No– [ Scoffing ] I walked away.

Nikki: Because you’re afraid that when your competitor is your father, you’ll never win.

Chance: The timing of stark’s death is definitely concerning.

Jack: Oh, I’ll say.

Chance: It doesn’t erase all the evidence that points directly to diane, though.

Jack: Oh, I think it puts a rather big question mark on every aspect of the case against diane. Thank you, detective. I’ll be in touch.

Chance: [ Sighing ] Gee. Hey. I’m, uh, I’m sorry. I feel like I’m runnin’ off all your customers.

Sharon: Well, if it’s any consolation, I know exactly how you feel.

Chance: What do you mean?

Sharon: Well, you wouldn’t believe how seriously people take their coffee. I mean, it’s gotta be the exact right temperature and the right strength. I mean, demands go on and on.

Chance: Oh, so now you’re comparing caffeinating the masses to police work, yeah?

Sharon: Well, they’re both life and death situations.

[ Chance chuckling ] That’s why people get so worked up.

Chance: Yeah, yeah, I guess you’re right. I guess you’re right. But you know what, coffee’s not gonna do it for me right now.

Sharon: Hm. Well, you’ve come to the wrong place then.

Chance: No, I just mean I– I need somethin’ a little bit more substantial. You know, you did agree to let me take you to dinner sometime. And I know it’s, uh, a bit early, but I think now is the perfect time.

Diane: Michael, I can’t thank you enough for taking my case.

Michael: Thank me when the murder charges are dropped.

Diane: And I can’t imagine what this is costing you.

Michael: I think you’re misunderstanding our business relationship. This is actually costing jack quite a lot.

Diane: No, not financially. I mean it. At least 90 percent of the people in this town wanna see me fry, and I’m sure that includes lauren.

Michael: Yeah. Lauren’s not happy, no. But this isn’t a popularity contest. You think phyllis gave a damn about how many people cared about her? What we cannot do is get bogged down on how people feel about us. We deal in facts. And the first thing we do is focus on the problem that’s right here in front of us: Building a strong defense.

Diane: So, tell me all the evidence they have against me.

Michael: All right, well, we’ll discuss that later. First, you walk me through exactly what happened the night phyllis died. The bad, the ugly, the potentially embarrassing, all of it. Because if you withhold anything from me, even the slightest detail, you can find yourself another lawyer.

Kyle: You’re not gonna tell me where you’re going?

Summer: Do I need to check in with you before I go somewhere? I– I’m running an errand.

Kyle: Wait, let me come with you.

Summer: That is very unnecessary. Just like it was unnecessary for you to track me down at neil’s jazz lounge and yell at chance.

Kyle: Hey, hold on. I just don’t think it’s the healthiest thing in the world for you to be hanging out in the place where your mother died.

Summer: You know what, kyle? My mom was unpredictable. And yeah, she drove me crazy, but we’re a lot alike. So, if I need to mourn her in this crazy, unpredictable way, then you just need to understand that.

Kyle: Okay, okay. I get it. Just be careful.

Summer: Besides, this errand, it could bring us all some closure. I used to wait to run my dishwasher

[ Michael sighing ]

Michael: There’s a gap in your timeline.

[ Diane scoffing ]

Diane: I have to account for every second the night of the gala?

Michael: You were alone for a period of time between wishing that you could strangle phyllis to death and her collapse in the lounge.

Diane: So, christine wants to prove that I wasn’t putting myself back together after phyllis attacked me. What does she think? That I ran out and grabbed some poison and somehow slipped it into phyllis’s champagne?

Michael: Actually, no. The poison wasn’t in phyllis’s drink, it was found inside of her mask.

Diane: Her mask? I didn’t even know that was possible.

Michael: I mean, why would you? You’re not a murderer. Were you alone at any time in phyllis’s hotel room?

Diane: Yes, then. After everyone left.

Michael: Ah, see, there. There’s your opportunity.

Diane: To what?

[ Michael sighing ]

Michael: The empty vial of poison was found in that suite.

Diane: Michael, that doesn’t make any sense. How could I run out and get some poison in the amount of time that it took me to brush my hair and put on some lipstick? W– what’s that?

Michael: It is an online receipt. According to this, you purchased the toxin online a few days before the gala.

Diane: What? Absolutely not.

Michael: You know, using your credit card.

Diane: Michael, I didn’t do that.

Michael: A crime of passion is one thing, but christine’s gonna try to say that this was premeditated. That you had a plan.

Diane: The only thing on my mind before the gala was jack announcing our engagement. I didn’t buy any poison! Online or otherwise. Michael, look at me. I am telling you the truth. I had nothing to do with phyllis’s death. Find jeremy stark. He’s the one behind all of this.

Michael: All right, all right, I’ll find everybody. But it won’t be pretty, and it won’t be easy.

Diane: Well, do whatever’s necessary.

Michael: Christine’s gonna have your family testify against you.

Diane: I know.

Michael: I saw you and phyllis fighting. They heard you threaten phyllis’s life.

Diane: Jack and kyle will understand. They’ll downplay it and explain the extenuating circumstances. They’ll do everything they can to help.

Michael: And what about summer?

Diane: Summer will do everything she can to see that I spend the rest of my life behind bars.

Kyle: Give me two minutes. Can you do that? Just talk to me. What’s going to bring us closure?

Summer: Answers. That’s what I need. That’s the only thing that’s gonna bring me any peace or quiet–

Kyle: I want that too. I want morning espressos at our place in milan and harrison correcting our italian. We were so happy.

Summer: Are you saying that we should just run off to italy to escape our problems? I–

Kyle: I meant what I said at the door last night, summer. And I know you heard me. I meant every word. No matter what happens, you and I will always belong together. I don’t care how long it takes, I’m not going anywhere.

Summer: Answers, kyle. That’s what I need, and then we can work on us.

[ Front door closing ]

Kyle: Dad.

Jack: Hi.

Summer: What’s wrong, jack?

Jack: It’s stark. He’s dead.

Nikki: Darling, whether you admit it or not, I know you’re still smarting for losing mccall to your father.

Victoria: Yes, it would’ve been nice to add mccall, but having adam tethered to it made the idea untenable.

Nikki: I totally agree with you. You made the right decision.

Victoria: Unfortunately, now I have to live with adam lording it over me until his predictable demise.

Nikki: Hm. Well, this acquisition is gonna be big news. Lots of fanfare. Press releases.

Victoria: Yeah, I know. I’m sure dad’s gonna wanna make a big splash to help adam.

Nikki: Might be a good time to get away.

Victoria: What do you mean? Like, as in a vacation?

Nikki: Well sure, why not? You know, take a few days for yourself. Just relax a little bit.

Victoria: Well, I do have that trip to los angeles coming up.

Nikki: No. That is for business.

Victoria: I know that, mom, but I could add a few days for vacation. I mean, you and I both know that I would probably turn it into back-to-back meetings, but for me that’s fun. And I promise you, I would get a massage and I would see the ocean. I mean, it would probably be from a window, but I would see it.

Nikki: You are only happy when you’re multitasking, just like your father.

Victoria: Mom, that’s not true. I know how to squeeze in a little r and r from time to time. Just ask nate. He’ll back me up on that. (Music throughout) Harry and david makes mother’s day easy. Share a gift made with love with a mom in your life. Choose from hundreds of stunning baskets and towers. It’s the perfect way to say thank you for everything. Harry and david. Life is a gift.

It’s the most wonderful

time of the year

Chance: Sharon, this was your choice?

Sharon: I know, I know. Don’t say it.

Chance: I mean, we could’ve gone anywhere in town and this was your choice?

Sharon: How was I supposed to know that the dining room was closed for a private event?

[ Chance groaning ] We are supposed to be distracting me from this case, and you literally brought me back to the scene of the crime.

Sharon: Well, who knows? Maybe you’ll have an epiphany while you’re here.

[ Chance exhaling ]

Victor: Well, I understand congratulations are in order.

[ Adam chuckling ]

Adam: For what?

Victor: You’re having a daughter.

[ Adam smacking his leg ]

Adam: That’s right. How’d you find out?

Victor: Your brother told me.

Adam: Hm.

Victor: How nice, man. Makes me very happy.

Adam: Sally and I, we are– we are very happy.

Victor: Mm-hmm.

Adam: But I also know that you don’t care for her, so I’m not really buying how pleased you are about the situation.

Victor: Well, I gotta tell you, another newman. She’ll live to be in the next century, be a shaker and a mover, innovate things. Makes me very happy. It really does. Okay? I have some news of my own.

Adam: All right. Let’s hear it.

Victor: I bought mccall unlimited. I’m the new owner. And you will start working there tomorrow morning.

[ Adam exhaling ]

Adam: You bought mccall?

Victor: I bought mccall. For you, your sons, your daughter. It’s a legacy that will go on forever.

Adam: Wow, that, um, that escalated quickly.

Victor: What do you mean by that?

Adam: My new baby with sally. It went from potential embarrassment to now being used as leverage to get me to take a job. Makes me wanna avoid mccall altogether.

Michael: The only thing that will bring summer some semblance of peace is clearing your name, and hopefully in the process, discovering the person responsible for her death.

Diane: Which seems close to impossible now that I see this evidence.

Michael: Including, but not limited to, trying to explain the fact that an unconscious phyllis was holding your engagement ring.

Diane: Oh, no, no, that was in jack’s pocket. And then jeremy bumped into him on the dance floor and he must’ve taken it.

Michael: You have no proof of that.

Diane: Well, no, because it was all happening so fast, and there were a lot of people.

Michael: Okay, okay, we can revisit that. Right now, we have to discuss what might be the most damaging piece of evidence against you, provided by me.

Jack: Yeah, stark’s death definitely adds a whole new layer of mystery to all of this.

Kyle: Summer? Hey, hey, are you all right?

Summer: I guess I’m just gonna have to live with all of these questions going unanswered. I– I’ve gotta go.

Kyle: Hey, can you stay for a little while? We can talk about this.

Summer: I don’t want to talk about jeremy stark. He’s a disgusting, manipulative criminal who tricked my mom into marrying him and probably had something to do with her murder. I’ve gotta go.

Kyle: Hey, let me go with you.

Summer: No. I am going by myself. I’ll call you.

[ Door slamming ]

Jack: Uh, what’s going on with her?

Kyle: Wish I knew. If you’ve had sensitivity, those zingers can really cause

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue.

Nikki: So, nate, tell me something. Do you think victoria has the ability to relax outside the work environment?

Nate: I say she’s the boss. And if she says she has that ability, then I say she does too.

Nikki: Oh boy, it’s disappointing to hear you kiss up to her like that.

Nate: I mean it. I– I wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t true. Victoria is a great boss. And she wouldn’t be where she is today if she didn’t excel at prioritizing or having impeccable instincts.

Nikki: Fine. There’s no point in talking to you when you’re going to team up against me.

[ Nate chuckling ] So, if you don’t mind working those extra hours, and clearly you don’t, have at it. I mean, it’s paying off. Newman enterprises is poised for world domination.

Victoria: Nose to the grindstone.

Nikki: And on that note, I shall leave you. Buzz me if you need me.

Victoria: Thank you, mom. So, what brings you by?

Nate: I was hoping we can go over some ideas I had for langston, but if you’re busy, I can wait.

Victoria: Oh, one second. Hey. Would you, um, make sure that all of the contracts are uploaded for the whitsett meeting? Thanks. So, you were saying?

Nate: What’s goin’ on? Whitsett?

Victoria: Oh, yes. Um, I’m– I’m headed to L.A. For a shopping spree.

Nate: Ah, rodeo drive?

Victoria: No, I’m just in the mood for something a little bigger. Streaming platforms.

Nate: Wow, that wounds media-related. Strange I’m just hearing about this now.

Victoria: Ah, well, better now than after it’s all said and done. But since these, um, these new acquisitions would be under your purview, if you happen to have time to pop over to the left coast, why don’t you join me?

[ Summer sighing ]

Summer: Daniel? It– it– is it you?

Daniel: Who else would I be?

Summer: No, are you the one that– are you the one who–

Daniel: The one who has been your brother your entire life? Yes, that’s me.

Summer: What– what are you doing here?

Daniel: Um, I come here a lot, actually. You know, clear my head. Today’s another one of those days.

Summer: Does it, um, does it usually work?

Daniel: Nope. Glad we ran into each other though.

Summer: Why?

Daniel: Well, I haven’t talked to you recently.

Summer: I’m not ready.

Daniel: Neither am I. So, you first.

Phyllis: Michael, um, it’s phyllis. Listen, diane is out of control. I’m terrified. She tricked jack into proposing to her. She’ll get rid of anybody or anything that might stand in her way. I know you probably think I’m being overly dramatic, I’m really serious this time. Please listen to me, that woman just attacked me and threatened to kill me. God help me, michael.

[ Phyllis panting ] I can’t believe I’m saying this. I’m actually afraid of that crazy bitch.

Diane: She sounds terrified.

Michael: Because of you?

Diane: No. The phyllis that trapped me in her hotel suite was anything but scared. She was accusatory. She was goading me into fighting back.

Michael: Hm, that sounds on brand for her–

Diane: Yeah, you saw phyllis the night of the gala. How did she seem to you?

Michael: Fiery, on the attack. You saw her.

Diane: Right, right, so why would she leave that message if she was really scared for her life? Why’d– she would leave you a voicemail? Does that make any sense?

Michael: She wasn’t thinking clearly.

[ Diane sighing ]

Diane: [ Chuckling ] Okay. What else don’t I know about?

[ Diane scoffing ]

Michael: When the police searched jack’s home, they found a letter from phyllis among your things.

Diane: What letter? She never sent me a letter. What?

[ Scoffing ] Michael, I have never seen this before in my life. W– where was this found?

Michael: In your bedroom.

Diane: Someone planted it there.

Michael: Mm. So, someone made their way into your very secure home and left that letter there?

Diane: No, I’m not saying that jeremy could have gotten access to jack’s house. But someone else could have.

Michael: Who? Who?

[ Diane sniggering ] Oh, you’re kidding me. You’re accusing phyllis of being an accomplice to her own murder? Moderate to severe eczema

Chance: This was a lot better than I expected.

Sharon: You know, the food here is the same as in the dining room, it’s just smaller portions and tinier plates.

Chance: Well, the food was great, but the company was just outstanding. Thank you, sharon. This has been a, uh, a perfect distraction for me right now. Sorry. Ah, hell. Hey, uh, I gotta run and take care of this. I’m so sorry. Thank you. This has been a very amusing afternoon.

Sharon: The pleasure was all mine.

Chance: Let’s do it again sometime. You know, maybe make it a proper dinner with, uh, with big plates and everything.

Sharon: I would really like that.

Chance: Can I walk you out?

Sharon: Um, you know, actually, I think I’m gonna stay, just for a little while. Finish my drink and have someone wait on me for a change.

[ Chance chuckling ] But you go. Go get some bad guys.

Chance: All right. I’ll see ya.

Sharon: All right. Well, see ya.

Daniel: I think that you need to open up.

Summer: Says who?

Daniel: Well, mom would. Just, whatever you’re feeling, just get it out there. You know, it could be dark or crazy or funny–

Summer: You know what, I actually think the world would be a better place if more people kept their emotions inside. Stuffed them down so that they didn’t cause problems.

Daniel: Well, that’s the exact opposite of what we should be doing.

Summer: Everybody grieves in different ways, daniel.

Daniel: I know, but you are mourning our mother like– like an angry, reclusive pain in the–

Summer: Hey! I just found out some pretty shocking news, okay?

Daniel: Okay. What?

Summer: Our new stepdad.

Daniel: Stark?

Summer: He’s dead.

[ Daniel scoffing ]

Daniel: Okay. Wait, this is for real? He’s dead? Just like that? How? When?

Summer: I don’t know. Nobody is telling me anything. They’re treating me like a toddler. But hey, you know what? They’ll probably talk to you. Why don’t you– why don’t you go find chance. He’ll tell you what’s happening.

Daniel: Maybe. Yeah, um, why don’t you come with me to the station?

Summer: So you can keep an eye on me? Daniel, please. I don’t need constant supervision.

Daniel: Okay, fine.

Summer: Good.

Daniel: Listen, I will back off. That doesn’t mean that I’m not still worrying about you. And I will be around whenever. Okay? Hey. I love you.

Summer: I love you too.

Diane: Let’s just look at this from a different angle. What if jeremy had an accomplice? Someone who kept his secrets and did his bidding.

Michael: Just like you did when you were laundering money for him in L.A.?

[ Diane sighing ] It’s all gonna come out in trial. You better get used to people pokin’ into your past and using your sins for their own private entertainment. But I digress, go ahead.

Diane: Phyllis and jeremy conspired together before to get me to leave town. What if he was just using her to gain access to jack’s house? I mean, phyllis walked in and out of there as she pleased. She visited summer and harrison.

Michael: All right, talk me through it. Convince me.

Diane: Michael, I found her in our home, alone, right before the gala. She could’ve planted the letter then, and gained access to my credit cards.

Michael: Go on.

Diane: Look, phyllis could’ve been part of jeremy’s plan. And if this letter is in her handwriting, which I’m assuming it is, then doesn’t that prove that she was in on it?

Michael: Hm. Why would she involve herself in a setup that requires her own death?

Diane: Well, I– I– I don’t know. I don’t know, but she was just so set on revenge that she would do anything to make me suffer?

Michael: Look, I can’t see her framing you for murder.

Diane: Michael, if you’re not willing to look at phyllis as the bad guy, then I have already lost this case.

Michael: Look, I know you’re searching for answers, but you won’t win any points in court, or with your attorney, who’s still grieving the loss.

Diane: What if phyllis’s death was an accident? What if they were just setting me up for an attempted murder, and then I– I– I don’t know, the ambulance exploded before jeremy could give her the antidote. Or what if jeremy turned on phyllis at the last minute and gave her a lethal dose of poison?

Michael: It’s farfetched.

Diane: Maybe. But what if phyllis’s murder was a revenge plot gone horribly wrong? For bathroom odors that linger.

Victor: Of course, you’ll run mccall. It’s yours to run. If you think you can make something out of it.

[ Adam chuckling ]

Adam: Look, if I agree to do this, I want some guarantees.

Victor: What are they?

Adam: Total autonomy. From newman. And from you.

[ Victor chuckling ]

[ Victor laughing ] In your dreams, son.

Adam: Look, make it a reality or this deal is dead.

Victor: And you come to your senses, son, before making another stupid, rash decision. Think of the legacy you could provide. For your sons, for your daughter, for yourself. For years to come. Or what would happen to you if you walk away from this?

Adam: It’s– it’s an amazing opportunity.

Victor: Uh-huh.

Adam: I’ll let you know.

Nate: You’re inviting me to go away with you to L.A.?

Victoria: I’m asking you if you’d like to join me on a business trip.

Nate: Do you think that’s wise?

Victoria: Just a few minutes ago, you were telling my co-ceo that you are willing to go wherever I say, and now you’re questioning me.

Nate: That is not what I meant.

Victoria: If your hesitation stems from the other night–

Nate: It does.

Victoria: Well, that’s not a problem then. I mean, you said that the incident was a mistake, and you don’t strike me as the type of man who would make the same mistake twice.

Nate: I like to think that’s correct.

Victoria: And also, you’re an adult. You’re capable of vast amount of self-control.

Nate: True.

Victoria: All right, so what’s the problem? I’m about to purchase some companies that might change the scope of your division. I’d think you’d be interested in that.

Nate: I am very interested in the business, yes.

Victoria: Good. Then you’ll join me.

Nate: L.A. It is.

Kyle: What does stark’s death mean for mom? Is she any closer to getting released? It’s not like she could’ve had anything to do with whatever happened to stark.

Jack: That’s what I tried to tell chance. They still don’t have all the facts.

Kyle: Does mom know? Does michael know?

Diane: I need to see jeremy. Can you figure out some way to get him in here?

Michael: To what purpose?

Diane: So I can get him to tell me the truth about what happened.

Michael: He’s on the run.

Diane: What?

Michael: The last time he was seen was shortly after the memorial. I mean, maybe when his little grift fell apart, he was afraid he’d go back to jail.

Diane: So he’s just disappeared? No. No, no, no, no, we need more time.

Michael: Listen. I’ll do what I can on my end, but keep thinking of details. Anything that will help us clear you.

Diane: All right, find him. Find jeremy stark, because he is the key to everything.

Michael: All right, all right, I’ll be in touch. Hey! Kyle, I’m glad you called, I was just talking to–

Kyle: There’s something I need to tell you.

Michael: Oh, why does this not sound good?

Kyle: Stark is dead.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[Wind whistling]

This place has been running on low-level auxiliary power. We just got the main power back on.

Ha! Imagine if we’d come all this way to be thwarted by a power failure. Here it is. Everything I’ve ever worked for lies behind this door.

[Dramatic music]

What are you saying? Wh–the cassadine technology from the ’80s was deadly. Are our friends walking into a trap or–or what?

I don’t know. I–I can’t say for certain. But from what ethan heard, victor’s plans have been decades in the making. So god help our friends if they’re swept up in that. God help all of us.

You guys look so happy, so in love.

Well, that’s, uh-

that’s because we are.

And it’s our wedding day.

[Laughs]

Well, let me know what they say, okay? Thank you, martin.

Nina.

Why were you talking to your lawyer?

[Dramatic music]

[Heavy clunk]

[Tense music]

[Sighs] Mikkos, old boy, you did not disappoint. Finally, after all these years, the end is in sight. It’s in there. Fetch the prisoners. It’s time they earned their keep.

Was ethan able to tell you anything else?

Apparently, victor told his personnel that the only people guaranteed to be safe when he finally executes his plan are the people closest to him.

What the hell does that mean?

Nothing good for the likes of us.

Scott, he’s been so preoccupied, you know, worrying about aunt liesl. We’re all worried about aunt liesl. I called martin grey to look into a matter for me.

Are you in trouble?

No, nothing like that. It’s–it’s just something that I have to do. And I also want to open up a-

a trust for amelia and wiley. You know, I’m sure michael and willow have that covered, but I figure it’s the only way I can spoil my grandchildren.

You’re gonna have plenty of opportunity with that. Have faith.

Easier said than done.

How can I cheer you up?

[Soft dramatic music]

Mm.

[Laughs]

This helps.

Hey.

If it isn’t the groom. Hi.

This, uh, what you’re wearing to the wedding?

Ugh.

[Chuckles]

How do you put up with him?

[Laughing]

I manage.

Hi.

Oh, mom, you look incredible. I would hug you, but I don’t wanna wrinkle anything.

Oh, get over here, get over here. I love you. Are you kidding me?

Aw. I love you too. Can I help the kids get ready? Do you need anything? Any water or some juice? I don’t know.

I’m–I’m good. Thank you. Everything is perfect.

[Knock on door]

[Soft dramatic music]

We have a major problem.

What’s wrong?

The hair and makeup artists’ plane was canceled. They’re not gonna be here in time to prep you.

[Sighing] Oh. Is that it?

What do you mean, “is that it?” Do you know anything about beauty?

I’d say he knows it when he sees it.

I can do my own makeup.

Okay, that is not gonna happen. Your only job today is to feel pampered and walk down that aisle. Besides, I called in backup. Blq and sasha are coming with some deception products. I am not gonna let anything ruin this night for you.

Maxie has instructed us to remove the groom.

All right. I know better than to argue with maxie. I will, uh, grab my suit. Do you want me to bring the kids too?

Uh, amelia’s sleeping.

I don’t want to wake her. Take wiley and I’ll bring amelia with us.

[Chuckles]

What?

No, it’s just the last time I’m seeing you before you become my wife. I just want to remember this moment.

[Tender music]

I’ll never forget it.

Mm.

Feel better?

I wish I could stay like that all afternoon. But today’s about celebrating michael and willow. And don’t you look handsome.

That’s a lot coming from the editor in chief of “crimson.”

I wish I could’ve helped, you know, do something for the wedding like network designers to make sure that willow got the perfect wedding dress, or choose the flowers. You know, fantasizing what it would be like to be mother of the bride.

Willow’s gonna come around. Trust me on that.

Yeah, hold that thought, okay?

Mm-hmm.

[Knock on door]

[Sighing] Okay.

Daddy!

Hi! Come on in. Come on in. Let me see this dress. Give it a twirl. Wow, that’s a beauty. Thanks for bringing her by.

Oh, yeah, of course. Avery’s so excited about the wedding.

Ohh.

Wow! Dress beautiful! You are beautiful. Are you ready to be a little flower girl with donna?

Can I have a snack first?

Yeah, let’s see what we can find in the kitchen.

[Both laugh] Come on.

Oh, my gosh. Is she not a knockout or what?

Ah, she sure as heck is.

So what do you have there?

If victor has said that only people closest to him will be safe, then we can assume that there will be devastating consequences for the rest of us-

for the rest of the world, quite frankly.

The guards seem to think that “those closest” meant people who are in proximity to victor.

[Laughs] What are the odds that victor doesn’t give a damn what happens to his henchmen?

No, that man will only keep people alive that are useful to him. But he does have spencer and ace. What if the people “closest to him” are the ones that he cares about? I mean, if he’s even capable of that.

Oh, come on, man! What’s taking you so long?

[Sinister music] Ah, finally. Welcome to our distinguished guests.

What is this dump?

This is the future, my boy. Oh, imagine, liesl, just in a few moments, you will be performing scientific wonders right here in this room.

You cannot expect me to work in these conditions.

Oh, don’t be deceived by appearances. You have everything you need.

It’s off.

I hope you all realize just how privileged you are.

Not the word I’d use.

You are about to witness the dawning of a new age.

Come on, come on. What’s the holdup?

It’s jammed.

Well-

[Scoffs] Unjam it.

What do you think is in there?

The pathogen that I was telling you about.

The one that will kill everyone on this planet? We can’t let him get his hands on it.

Maybe they won’t be able to get the door open.

A broken door will not stop victor cassadine.

[Both grunting]

[Dramatic music]

It’s here. It’s all here. At last, the power to set the world right.

This is only a theory, but what if victor has some kind of bomb?

Yeah, that would certainly fit his doomsday scenario.

What could he possibly accomplish with a bomb?

I don’t know, but it would explain why he’s gathering his loved ones around-

to protect them.

Trina robinson was a stowaway.

Yeah, so he wouldn’t have been counting on her presence.

Doesn’t explain obrecht. I mean, apparently he was obsessed with her at one point. But since her return to port charles, you know, his focus has been on other things.

So unlikely she would count as a loved one. Why take her then?

Maybe he wants something from her.

Hey. Ned wanted you to have this.

Oh, really? Well, where is he? We can’t toast without him.

He’s helping olivia in the kitchen, said to not wait on him.

Well, then let’s not wait on him.

I’m with you.

Don’t leave me out.

Well, I wasn’t gonna leave you out. Now that you said that, maybe I will leave you out.

Ah.

[Tender music]

For you.

Thank you.

For you.

Thank you.

I wish you all the happiness in the world.

Thank you.

To michael and willow.

You are so beautiful.

The perfect bride.

I barely recognize myself. Thank you.

Our pleasure.

Glad we could help.

Well, every wedding has to have at least one crisis. Yours just happened. We made it through. Smooth sailing from here on out.

Uh, maybe not. Did anyone tell you about the changes to the guest list?

There were changes to the guest list? How come the wedding planner’s always the last to know?

Easy, maxie.

Tracy is here. And drew will no longer be at the ceremony.

Why won’t drew be there?

Well, he’s tracking down a lead on victor, and if he finds victor, that means he can bring liesl home.

Oh, thank god. I have been really worried, and so have james and georgie. It’s gonna be okay, willow. Drew will find liesl and bring her home safe.

And then I’ll be able to get my transplant.

Best wedding gift ever.

It’s not all good news, is it?

[Soft dramatic music]

It’s just a little gift for willow.

That’s nice.

It’s nothing really.

What is it?

It’s a bracelet from gelhorn’S.

Oh.

What do you think?

Oh, it’s beautiful. It’s spectacular. Definitely boundary-crossing.

Excuse me?

Nina. Willow made her boundaries very clear, did she not?

I just want her to know that I’m thinking about her.

[Sighs] I know this is difficult for you. And I’m sure that your heart is in the right place, but you can’t start showering willow with gifts. It’s not gonna work. And she may even think that you-

you’re trying to bribe your way into her life.

Well, it’s my-

my daughter’s wedding day. I can’t just do nothing.

You can if you wanna have a relationship with willow in the future.

Future? You say it like it’s certain that we’ll have one, that… willow will have one.

You have to honor her wishes, no matter how painful it is.

Just one cookie? It just does not seem like enough. I mean, you–you could have a lot of cookies. You know what I mean?

But there’ll be wedding cake.

Yes, yes, there will be plenty of wedding cake. Did you show your dad your-

your flower girl walk?

She nailed it.

[Laughter]

Of course. Okay, well, then you two should get going ’cause you don’t wanna be late, right?

You gonna be okay?

Yeah.

All right.

I’m glad you’re gonna be there.

Yeah.

[Gasps] Oh.

I’ll save you some cake.

[Chuckles] You better.

I’ll stick around, okay? I’ll keep an eye on her.

All right. Okay, flower girl, you ready? Let’s go.

You have the best time!

[Sonny chuckling] You did the right thing.

Why does it feel so wrong?

Look, drew is gonna find victor. He is, and he’s gonna bring liesl, trina, and spencer home. I believe that.

Right. But it’s still a very dangerous situation, so… you can tell me how you’re really feeling.

I’m worried. I’m really worried. But I have faith in drew. And if anyone can save willow, it’s him.

Wait, willow, if drew’s not gonna be there, who’s walking you down the aisle?

My soon-to-be mother-in-law.

And it’s my privilege.

Are you nervous? I had butterflies when I married brando, and it was in a car repair shop with only the owner and his wife in attendance.

I have butterflies, but in the best way. Marrying michael in front of all the people we love, it just…feels like my whole life has been leading to this moment.

Well, before we all cry all our makeup off, let’s get you in your dress.

Um, actually, ladies, uh, josslyn and I are gonna take it from here if that’s okay.

Okay, then we’ll leave you to it. You could get married in your robe. You’re the most beautiful bride.

It’s true. See you down the aisle.

[Tender music]

Don’t hesitate to call if there’s more changes to the guest list or if you have a dress malfunction.

Let’s go, maxie.

Okay–hey! My phone will be on. I can be back in five minutes.

Do not worry. Everything’s gonna be fine.

Brook lynn, stop manhandling me!

[Door shuts]

[Indistinct whispering]

Is everything okay?

Super.

Yeah. Yeah.

Uh, you two are up to something. Spill.

As much as you’ve been looking forward to marrying michael, we’ve been looking forward to welcoming you to the family.

[Knock on door]

[Gasps] Oh! They’re here.

[Laughing]

Hi. Come in.

Hi there. Willow. Are you ready to become one of us?

Are we certain that liesl obrecht is a captive? Maybe she’s a collaborator. She could have gone willingly with victor.

Well, I mean, she disappeared from the nurses’ ball right in the middle of a magic act with her grandson and his sister. I don’t think she did that on purpose.

When luke and I crossed paths with her back in 2013, she was hardly a doting grandmother. I mean, she admitted to putting you into a coma, and she knocked me out in order to escape. She and victor are two of a kind. I can’t believe you would ever trust her.

Well, I’m not gonna nominate obrecht for sainthood, but she’s a different person to what she was ten years ago.

Yeah, since faison died. I mean, right around the time that he did, you know, she started to realize the tragic consequences of her obsession. She’s lost two children now, and her grandson and her niece, nina, are the only family she has. Wait, isn’t she supposed to be donating bone marrow to nina’s daughter?

Mm.

I–I don’t think she left this town willingly.

I mean, it’s not like cassadine yanked her off the street. I mean, that-

that stunt that they pulled at the nurses’ ball, that took a lot of planning.

It sort of implies that she is pivotal for some reason. And given that she is a brilliant researcher, I bet victor wants her for her skills in the lab, not her sparkling conversation.

So if victor needs something that only obrecht can give, maybe that means what he has isn’t a bomb.

A far more sinister weapon.

[Dramatic music]

In this canister is the pathogen mikkos and I developed.

Forgive me if I don’t applaud.

But there’s still one step we have to take before we can begin. And that’s where you come in, my dear liesl. I take it you’ve read all the material provided you by my scientists that have been working on this.

Their notes were thorough and made interesting reading.

Ah, good. Then you’ll know all about the pathogen. You know its modes of transmission, as well as the antidote. And since this pathogen has been untouched for decades, I need you to check that it’s still viable and can be effective. Then I’ll need you to do the same with the antidote. You’ll find, uh, a microscope and slides here. So shall we begin our work?

You fool! What are you doing? The pathogen is airborne. If you open that, we’ll almost certainly die.

[Scoffs] Really? Do you think I’m that stupid? To handle a pathogen that’s potentially active?

Are you sure?

Well, of course I’m sure. Mikkos and I developed this pathogen so that it’d only be activated by uv light. That’s why it’s down here in this bunker, so far away from the sunlight.

Still, I–I cannot study this pathogen in–in these conditions. I–I need a controlled environment and protective clothing.

Well, I’ll pretend not to be insulted by your lack of faith. Now get on and do as I say. You have to prove that this pathogen can be effective, as well as the antidote. And then once you’ve done that, I’ll release it into the atmosphere, and humanity can finally pay for the damages done to our planet.

You’ve always made me feel like a part of your family. I am so grateful.

Aw, well, now that you’re finally marrying michael, we wanted to officially mark the occasion.

[Laughter] Oh, donna, give her the present. First something old.

[Tender music] My brother, luke, gave this to me. We were walking one day, and it was in the window of a jewelry shore. And I admired it, and next thing I knew, luke went right in and he bought it for me. He said he was flush and he’d rather spend the money on his baby sister than blow it on a card game. So it’s not only from me. It’s from your great…. your great-uncle-in-law.

[Laughter] Luke would’ve liked you a lot.

You think?

Yeah. Luke admired people who were true to themselves. And he admired people who had lots of courage. And you have an abundance of both.

There you go.

Thank you. This means so much to me.

You mean so much to all of us. Right, donna?

Right.

[Laughter]

Okay, okay, something borrowed.

[Sighs] So my mother gave this to me. And, uh, well, one day josslyn’s gonna wear it when she gets married. Come here.

[Whispers] So pretty.

Thank you.

Um, and, uh, something blue.

Wow. Thank you.

You’re welcome.

[Exhales shakily]

Hey. How are you feeling?

Like a spencer.

[Laughter]

Should I return it? Or should I keep it in hopes that someday willow will accept it from me?

You don’t have to decide tonight. Hold onto it for a couple of days and see how you feel.

Yeah.

In the meantime, I could use a cup of tea, or actually, maybe something even stronger. Can I get you something?

You don’t have to babysit me, ava.

Oh, is that what we call two friends sitting around talking these days?

Sonny was worried about me too. He offered to whisk me away to some tropical island.

And you turned him down?

I’m fine.

Oh, nina, I saw the look on your face when you said goodbye to him, and… I’m gonna stay, and we’ll talk for as long as you need.

You have a lot going on. I heard about trina. You must be going out of your mind.

Yeah. No, I am. But there’s really not much I can do. The pcpd is-

is searching for her. And–and trina’s smart and capable. She can take care of herself, and I was reminded of that fact last night when I was speaking with her mother while you were at wyndemere.

Carly told you.

Uh-huh. And I take it the two of you did not have a very productive conversation.

Well, nothing will ever be productive as long as that woman’s around.

Well, nina, get used to it, ’cause carly ain’t going anywhere.

[Dramatic music]

Wait, something new.

Oh, come on, I think amelia fills the bill.

Absolutely.

[Laughter] Thank you all for being so kind.

Look, we know that it’s your day, but it’s kind of ours too.

Yeah, ’cause weddings aren’t just about romantic love. They’re–they’re about new families being created too.

That’s right. And you’re our new family in every way that matters. I mean, you make michael and wiley so happy. I mean, I feel like you’ve been a part of us forever. You fit in effortlessly.

Willow?

[Tender music] You’re my sister like josslyn and avery.

[Laughs] I am, donna. And I am so lucky to have you for a sister.

Oh, no, don’t cry.

No, it’s just–it’s fine. It’s, um–ah. It’s tears of…joy. I have always dreamed of a family like this. People who look out for each other no matter what, who protect each other, who love each other fiercely and unconditionally. And now that dream has come true. And now that I’ve found you all to hold onto…

hey. We’re gonna hold onto you too, you know. We’re not letting you go.

Here, I better take these to the kitchen. Don’t want olivia to have a meltdown because there were used glasses in here on the wedding day.

Thank you.

I, uh, got something for you.

Oh? You didn’t have to do that.

Yeah, I did. Uh… someone, eh, very important to us couldn’t be here today. And we’re gonna honor his spirit. Our grandfather, mike.

Thank you.

Yeah, it tore me up that I wasn’t able to-

to be here for his last days, and dad gave me those. He said mike is, you know, always with us. I figured you could use a little of our grandfather’s love on your wedding day.

That’s very generous of you, bro. Thank you.

I–I want ’em back when you’re done.

Oh, yeah? We’ll see about that.

Hey, uh, just be-

you know, seriously, I’m–I’m proud of you. Not just, you know, for the life you’ve built and for marrying willow, but, uh… I know what it took to invite our dad today.

Yeah, well…

[Clears throat] Well, yeah, well don’t give me too much credit. Willow wanted to include him, and I would do anything for her, so…

okay, well, however it happened, it’s progress, and-

and I appreciate that.

Mm.

This thing between the two of you, it’s-

it’s ruining you guys. And the only way it’s gonna end if you’re both willing to bend a little bit. Am I wrong about the thaw?

[Clears throat]

Victor doesn’t have a conventional weapon. It’s a biological agent.

And he needs obrecht’s expertise to activate it.

Right.

Biological warfare? Well, victor’s certainly capable of it.

That explains liesl being there, and–and his comments about those close to him being safe.

The code inside the ice princess necklace either leads to a safe haven for victor and his friends, the ones he wants to stash, or the biological agent itself.

Oh, my god, laura and everyone, they–they don’t know what they’re walking into. We have got to warn them.

[Dramatic music]

[Sighs] Well?

I’m sorry, victor. The pathogen has degraded.

You sure?

I triple-checked. It is no longer effective.

Well, that is disappointing.

But perhaps I shouldn’t take your word for it. Perhaps I should send you up to the surface and release the pathogen. If it is indeed harmless, then it shouldn’t be a problem for you, should it? Guard, why don’t you, uh, take dr. Obrecht outside.

You bastard.

Oh. So you’re revising your scientific evaluation?

The pathogen is intact.

[Chuckles] Wonderful news. I thought as much.

Not quite. The pathogen appears viable under the microscope. But I must test it and the antidote on a human subject to be certain you have the effect you want.

Well, that shouldn’t be a problem. We have plenty of human subjects.

Test subjects are supposed to give their informed consent. And I definitely don’t give mine.

Or mine.

Oh, we don’t require your consent in this case.

Do you really want our deaths on your hands?

Oh, I’m sure dr. Obrecht will do her very best to make sure that doesn’t happen.

That pathogen kills.

Yes, that’s right. Mikkos and I developed the pathogen to be lethal to the vast majority of human beings. Now, there is a small percentage that will have a natural immunity. And we have developed an antidote for we cassadines and our descendants.

How can you do this? How can you sentence millions of people to death? Are you really that greedy?

Oh, no, this isn’t about money. No, I wouldn’t make the same mistake my brother did. No. I’m doing this for the greater good.

By committing mass homicide? You’re britt’s mother. I know you have a conscience. Don’t do this.

How are you feeling?

[Sighs] I’m, um, just all over the place, you know? I’m just, um… filled with so much emotion and love for michael and willow. And I just pray they get the future they deserve.

Drew’s making sure they will.

I know. And I want drew and all of victor’s hostages to come home safe. I just…

so how do you feel about sonny attending the wedding this evening?

I know willow wanted him to come, so michael agreed. It’s a sacrifice. I know it’s difficult for michael to be around his father.

And what about you?

I’ll be fine. I’ll be fine, you know? This is about michael and willow and-

and their love, right? And I know sonny is capable of rising to the occasion, and I intend to. Michael’s our son. We can be happy for him. That’s all.

You’re a good mother, carly.

[Both laugh]

Where do you think I learned it from?

Aw. Thank you, baby.

Things are bad now. They won’t always be. Hang onto the bracelet, and give it to willow when she’s ready.

Will that day ever really come?

I know it hurts being excluded from such an important day in your daughter’s life.

It does, ava. It really does. But it’s just the latest manifestation of the giant chasm between me and my daughter, the chasm that I’m running out of time to traverse. My daughter, she has stage iv leukemia. And it kills me that I can’t be by her side. I can’t support her. I can’t console her. I can’t do anything. And it didn’t have to be that way. She could’ve gotten that bone marrow transplant months ago if carly had told the truth. So this is on carly, and I made sure she knew that last night.

Oh, I’m sure that went well.

And then she insists that–that willow hates me, and I only have myself to blame.

That’s carly.

And then she has the audacity to lecture me about consequences when she’s never faced any. I know that I’ve made mistakes with willow. I know that. I never said that I didn’T. And I will face any and all challenges to try to have a relationship with her. But carly, she gets to have this close relationship with willow, she gets to be at her wedding, regardless of all the things that she’s done?

Life is just not fair sometimes.

Well, ava… I intend to balance those scales.

Michael!

Hey.

Look at my dress and basket with flower petals.

Wow. Best flower girl ever. You and donna are gonna be great.

I agree with michael 100%. Glad you’re here, dad.

Yeah, me too. Thanks for inviting me.

Oh, yeah, thanks for coming. It’s–it’s important to willow.

[Footsteps approaching]

Hi.

Hey.

Michael. Handsome as ever.

Ah, thank you.

You look good too, uncle sonny. Nice suit.

[Clears throat] And?

Oh, yeah. Hi, dante.

Oh. Hi, brook lynn.

Can I see donna?

We saw her heading to the gatehouse. I can take you.

Okay, I guess the florist sent the bouquets in a separate van. Apparently now there’s a shortage of peonies. Brook lynn, I’m gonna need your help if I have a meltdown.

Oh, boy, okay. Everything cool in here?

Yeah, yeah. We’re good, brook lynn. Thanks.

[Clears throat] So… is everything okay here?

You know what? I’m–I’m here to support willow and michael, if they’ll let me.

-That’s it? -Yeah.

Whoa!

Oh, sorry.

I’m sorry.

Oh.

Defcon 1?

Worse. Defcon 5. A centerpiece is missing.

[Chuckles]

What?

Well, it’s the opposite. The lower the number, the higher the emergency.

Whatever. Thankfully, maxie said to order an extra one, so it is waiting in the refrigerator.

Brook lynn.

Yeah?

[Soft dramatic music]

You didn’t-

you didn’t say goodbye after the ccrb meeting.

Right, um… I had to pick up leo, and you were talking to dante.

Well, uh, thank you for showing up. It meant a lot.

Don’t mention it.

How’s willow doing?

She is in, uh, good spirits. She rested most of the morning, so I hope the day’s not too much for her.

Hey, well, you know what? There’s a lot of people here to make sure she’s okay, and I’m sure the excitement about marrying you is–is gonna get her through the day just fine.

Yeah, I hope so.

What, you don’t think so?

No, I’m–I’m over the moon about marrying willow, and I know she feels the same way. I just wish that-

you just wish that liesl obrecht was found in time to give willow a bone marrow transplant.

Don’t lose faith, michael. If anyone deserves to have fate on their side, it’s willow.

Liesl, let me, uh–let me sweeten the deal for you. Once you’ve determined that the antidote is effective, I’ll send you back to port charles with enough doses for you and your family. That way, you can save your great-niece’s life in more ways than one.

I will do as you ask, victor.

No! Okay, okay.

Excellent. Well, you have all you need, and I’m sure it’s within your capabilities.

[Door thunks open]

Oh, and liesl, do remember, your great-niece is running out of time, so it’s in your interest to work as fast as you can.

[Door thunks closed]

Did you reach them? Did you reach laura?

None of them. Just a message stating that their phones were out of the area.

Okay, you have to keep trying. Because if we’re correct, and victor has a biological agent, then laura and valentin, they’re going to need help. And I think that you need to call the wsb.

Do you suppose that this changes their calculus at all?

It must.

Please. Please call them. Our people are gonna need backup before it’s too late.

I was hoping that you and carly could reach a détente.

I tr–I tried. I did. But carly will never forgive and forget my keeping sonny a secret in nixon falls.

Yeah. And like it or not, michael and willow listen to her.

But I am not the only one who needs to face the consequences of her actions.

What–what does that mean?

You know what? I may not be able to do anything for willow. But I can make damn sure that carly gets what she deserves.

Nina, what did you do?

Aw. Isn’t your niece adorable?

[Laughing] Oh!

I got amelia’s dress just for the wedding.

[All fawning]

Okay, this calls for a picture.

Okay, all right.

Okay.

Let’s sit over here.

We’ll sit next to you.

You, donna-

okay, everyone.

Ready.

Okay, that’s good. Everybody line up nice and smile. Look up.

Amelia. Amelia, look.

Carly, look up.

[Laughter]

Here, here, grandma. Let me–you sit.

Hi, amelia.

Oh, okay.

You gotta be in it.

Thank you.

Aw, she’s so tired.

I’ll set one up for all of us, okay?

Yeah, she just woke up.

All right.

It’s gonna be a timer. Ten seconds, okay?

All right, joss. Oh, it’s green. All right, hurry up, hurry up. Ready? Almost. Everybody smile.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

I thought you were gonna sleep day away. Oh, who saw? Is that Mr. Keeping me up all night? Hmm. So you enjoyed your new bed and your new room. And your new room. Well, can you tell, I mean, it is a new bed and then new room, but it’s not a new home. We, we lived here once upon a time as husband and wife. I remember.

I do. It’s the happiest time of my life and now you’re back here where you belong. Pretty soon, your divorce from Lee will be final and we’ll be back to being Mr. And Mrs. Steph and Damara again forever. This time. For now, do you think we completely press in the place? No, no. I think we could go for another minute.

I didn’t tell EJ and I don’t want him to know, so it has to be our little secret.

You haven’t touched your breakfast

penny for your thoughts.

You haven’t even touched your breakfast. No appetite. You’re still thinking about Polly’s rant last night, aren’t you? I mean, how can I not God, Eric, it seems like every time something awful happens in this town, I’m the one that’s getting blamed for it. It’s so unfair. It is. I know,

I know. You know, I’m sorry. I should be focusing on the positive, you know, like you and I are officially a thing now. You sing. Sounds so official To hell with everything else, Eric, Brady and I are officially thanks. Hey, I, I already feel better. Good.

Are you sure you want to eat that? Sloan? What? I’d expect retaliation if I were you after drugging all of Salem’s breakfast, including mine.

Hi.

Sorry, it’s just, um, no, no, I, I understand, but I promise I am not hallucinating anymore. I even skip breakfast just to be sure. I am not happy with you two. I’m not happy at all. I dunno what, what’s wrong? Am uh, please tell me that Sloane Peterson didn’t go public with what she saw. Not that I know of. And I don’t give a damn about that kiss that happened between the two of you when you were hallucinating or whatever.

What I do give a damn about is there has been no arrest. In this insane drugging debacle, you know, the only person that’s paid a price is my stepdaughter, whose career is in jeopardy. So what is the hold up? Why the hell is Sloan Peterson still walking the streets?

Really? No one, and we can’t even give this stuff away. People see me standing here smiling, and then they just turn, tell and run. Even old Mrs. Weaver, who is always here bright and early every morning, you know, I’m so sorry. Those breakfast biscuits were my recipe. I feel terrible. Why? It’s not your fault.

It’s not like you drug those biscuits. What are you feeling guilty about?

Morning girl. Morning mama. I have a bearclaw. On the house.

Maybe I’m not in, in the mood for a BigLaw. Not in the mood. Since when have you ever not been in the mama? Not you too.

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

Remember you said that to me earlier, Patty, for your thoughts. Ej, this is where you, this is where you jump in. Sorry. I, um, honey, is, is something bothering you?

I’m just a little tired. I mean, Aren you, after all that racket coming from Stefan’s room last night. Oh yeah. That was quite a performance and I’d say Act three was a bit unnecessary. Yeah, that’s, that’s the problem. Those noises weren’t a performance, not this time. It was all too real. A bloody siren call to troubled waters.

You think they heard us downstairs? I think they heard us in Cat Mando. But who cares? Not me. I love you. I love you. I can stay with you like this all day. Yeah. Mm-hmm. What are you doing the rest of the year wide open. We both know we do some pretty important plans today. We certainly do. Yeah.

Please. You know, It’s one thing for Paulina Price who’s totally ignorant to how the law works to make an accusation with absolutely no proof whatsoever, but it is unseemly, if not despicable and unethical for someone with a law degree to do the same. I assume you do have a law degree in Melinda. Yeah, and I also have a brain, which is why I deduce that you are the only person that hates Chanel Dupree enough to want to kill her business.

And don’t even get started on these conspiracy theories that her and her mother are masterminding a frame up because both of us know that that is patently ridiculous. Ms. Trask, if you don’t mind, I believe that Sloan pointed out that you have no evidence to prove that she ever tampered with the biscuits, which means this is heading towards slander.

Would I be correct, Sloan? Oh, this is not slander Mr. Brady. It is personal, you see, because I was also drug by whatever the hell was in those biscuits. I ended up assaulting Stephan Damira and I wound up spending the night in the hospital. And do you know who was in the room? Across from me, the police commissioner.

Oh. How awful for you. I’m so sorry, but why should I give a damn? Since I had nothing to do with this? Here’s why you should give a damn Ms. Peterson. You have caught the wrong people in your net, powerful people who do not like being screwed with. So get your affairs in order because I am going to make sure that you go down for this and you will go away for a long, long time.

We don’t have the evidence that we need to tie Sloan to any of this. Oh, no fingerprints. No, no security footage. Oh, detective Hunter interviewed Chanel and Talia, her new employee. Your sister? Yes. Yeah, who accidentally left the security camera off. She’s still new with the job.

And Sloan Peterson is still walking streets. With all due respect, Mr. Mayer, we can’t even be sure that Sloan was the perp. We checked the security cameras this morning. There is no way that anyone could have tampered with these. Baby. I, I’m so sorry. It’s, it’s just with everyone is sale. I’m so worried about being drugged.

Suddenly got got a little worried myself because I know that was a one-time awful thing that you and Talia had nothing to do with. Uh, so gimme that delicious beer claw. In fact, gimme a whole tray of ’em. I’ll show you how much I support you. You know not to mention how much I love Sweet Fit, and it’s the finest bakery on the planet.

Oh Mama. It’s okay. Look, you don’t need to prove anything to me or Talia. We both know that you’re on our side. It’s just I’m feeling a little sensitive this morning because Sweet Bids business is doing really bad for the first time ever, and. Well, we all know who’s to blame that evil. Sloan Peterson, she came to Salem to ruin me, and she thinks I took her mother’s life.

And that isn’t news. But what is news is she’s succeeding. Her plan to destroy me is going real, real well. Oh,

Oh, look after me baby girl. I will not stand idly by while Sloane continues her heinous attacks on us. On your business, on decency itself, and I swear to you, should now mommy your phone. Oh, it can wait. No, no, mom, it’s okay. Just take it. It’s not like I’m going anywhere. Okay, honey, but I’ll be right back.

I love my mama and trust me, she can move mountains when she puts her mind to it. But it’s not like she can single handedly convince everyone to trust our treats. Talia, I I don’t think I’m gonna be able to keep you on. Hey, don’t worry about me right now. Okay. Listen, I’ll be fine and so will you. And yes, unfortunately people are worried about what sweetest has to offer.

But it’s gonna make eight grand recovery. I know it. Okay. And it’s gonna be better than ever. Come on, you’ll see. I appreciate your optimism, but I don’t know. I look, I, I still think you should keep your options open. Okay. So I, Hey, I, I can reach out to my friend trip and I, I can see if he could put in a word for you at the hospital.

No, you’re a doctor after all. No, listen, I’m a baker now. This is where I belong. Look, I, I, I don’t think you’re hearing me. Okay. There is zero money coming in. You can’t work for free. Sure, I can. Why would you do that? Because I believe in you. Look, I know that I’m new to all of this. What Chanel working here with you?

I don’t know. It just, it all seems right, like it was like sort of meant to be or something. You know? How tall you, you’re the best.

Are you saying that you believe that Sloan is innocent? Mr. Mayor, as you know, we don’t have any definitive evidence and until we do. Is my job as an investigator to study all of the facts and keep an open mind. I’m with my detective here. Hey, is it possible that maybe, maybe you’re too close to this, could be, um, clouding your judgment?

Maybe it is because it is personal, deeply personal. Hmm. I love my family and I love this town, and right now both are under attack. You can spew your grandiose threats all you want on Melinda, but you know damn well that if these Salem Keystone cops actually had anything on me, I’d be in custody. Not necessarily, and since it’s fairly obvious that this crime was committed on the night before, everyone was tripping on those biscuits.

You’d better start inventing your alibi for saided night. She doesn’t have to invent one because she was with me all night. Yeah. Well, you better hope someone can corroborate that Ms. Trask in order for somebody to corroborate that. That means they would have to have been there. Sloan and I are not into that kind of thing.

When we spend the night together. We like just to be two of us together and what a wonderful night it was.

This, this is preposterous Stephan moving Gabby back into my family home without consulting me acting like it’s his God-given, right? I should start eviction proceedings. Oh, you’re forgetting one thing, brother. You see my name’s on the deed, seeing as I own the place before I was shot, before you came skulking back into town.

Stephen bakes an excellent point and I must say it feels wonderful to be back home where I belong. Hmm. Hungry Sweetss. Mm-hmm. And you know, we gotta keep our strength up. Mm-hmm Mm. It is such a beautiful day already. Sun shining already outside. Weather’s perfect. Perfect. Inside too. They say it’s going to get cloudy later.

That could be a possible storm. Is that so? What a shame. Wouldn’t want to get caught in it. What is that supposed to mean? Hmm hmm. Better time babe. Better get to work. Don’t wanna be late. I’m, uh, heading that way myself. I’m sure Nicole and Gabby can hold the fort in our absence. No, Nicole can. Excuse me.

Yes. See, Gabby is coming with us because I hired her.

You hired Gabby? I did. I’m sorry. I meant to mention that to you. Must have slipped my mind. Mm-hmm. It also must have slipped your mind to run it by me, but now that you have, you can go ahead and fire her. Oh no, you wouldn’t do that, Sam, me. Now would you sweetheart? Oh, of course not, darling. Well, I guess it forced to me then.

Gabby, you’re fired. Gabby, you’re rehire Stephan as coce. I’m sure you’re aware of the bylaws in regards to hr. But let me refresh your memory just in case every executive level hire must be approved by the C E O in our case, both c e o. Hmm. Well, I do know those bylaws inside and out. So you’ll be relieved to hear Gabby’s not coming on as an executive.

Oh, well then congratulations Gabby. You must be joining the custodial staff. Oh, wow. Uh, no, actually she’ll be a consultant and obviously I don’t need you to cosign on that. No, of course Nazi, we consulted on that and he’s absolutely right. It’s a man ej. Looks like he got caught in the rain.

Why so quiet Melinda? Trying to figure out how you’re gonna put an ex priest in front of a jury and accuse him of lying. Oh, I would love to sit front, row and center for that. You’ll have a front row seat. All right, and perhaps I’ll remind the jury that this ex priest posed illegally as a paralegal to interfere with a police investigation.

I seem to remember that you weren’t so happy about that. How things have changed. If you’re done with your empty threats, you can go now. My boyfriend and I would like to enjoy our breakfast alone in peace.

Hey, thanks for having my back. You didn’t really need me. You did great. Come on. What’s wrong? You know and recognize bluster when you see it. I know I came off all like big and confident and oh, seems like I can prove my innocence here. But Eric, I’m honestly, I’m terrified. I’m terrified that, that they’re coming from man, that they’re not gonna miss.

Seems to me the trick here, nailing down exactly when those biscuits got docked. You know, I was thinking the same thing. The more we can nail it down, the more we can start eliminating suspects. Yeah. And zeroing in on the purp. No time like the present. What are you calling? Well figured. If we’re gonna go back to the beginning, we might as well start with the source.

Oh, step right up folks. Best pastries in town. Buy a long shot. Hey, you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You, yeah. Buy muffin a cookie, something. Okay, mama. It’s okay. We, we probably shouldn’t sound too desperate. Oh. It’s Jada. Hey, did you arrest her? No. Did you arrest Sloane Peterson? I’m sorry, Chanel. The investigation is still ongoing, which is why I like to go over everything with you again, people, I already told you everything that I know, which unfortunately isn’t much, but yeah.

Right. Oh, okay. No, I, I get it. Right. No problem. Do you have to go to the station? Yeah, I do. And they want you there too?

A consultant for one thing. We have no need for a consultant. Oh, see, that’s where you’re wrong. We have a very urgent need for a consultant and with Gabby’s energy and intelligence and incredible work ethic. Don’t forget that. That too, I am hoping she can assist us in building a well-oiled machine of a company that will help rid us of as much waste and any efficiency is possible.

Yeah, and I just can’t wait to dive right in. Great. So as any good evaluation starts at the top to your brother, Gabby’s first order of business will be to evaluate you.

You want to evaluate me? Mm-hmm.

If there are any inefficiencies at the top brother, it certainly doesn’t stem from me. Well, I’ve been focusing on the day-to-day at the company. You have been wasting valuable time and manpower, plotting and scheming to divert LE’s shares to our new consultant here. Come to think of it, I may need a consultant on my own to look into how you, Stephan, have been dragging us down.

What do you say, Nicole? Are you interested in the consultant position? Oh, uh, well, I have a job. A basic black, a treasure division for sure, and you have served us very well there. But at Basic Black, you are off on your own with Brady working remotely like a satellite, orbiting the mothership. Why don’t you come on board and join us here at the Mira Enterprises right by my side where we can make great use of your considerable talents.

Wow is a bit sudden. But of course I accept excellent. Looks like it’s going to be one big happy family of corporate headquarters. From now on,

ah, free samples. Get your delicious. Just breakfast treats now before they’re all gone. Well, are you changing careers? No. Well, this is, this is off abortion now. Oh. Sloan’s attacks have have hit up business harder than we could have imagined. Mm. Oh, you know what? Here, here you try one. Maybe it’ll help, but the people see the Marin, I think.

Uh, hey.

It’s delicious. It’s delicious. It’s delicious. It is mouthwatering. It is the perfect way to start your day. Haha. How’s that? Perfect. Oh, but um, see, see what I mean. No one. No. Mm-hmm. You know, that’s a shame. Where, where, where is Chanel? Oh, Rayen Jada asked her to go to police station with Talia. They didn’t wanna go over everything that happened before those biscuits got tainted and maybe find that needle in the haystack.

They missed the first time around, but on stage you are gonna play because you are a pro. Well, thanks for coming back in. No problem. All right. Everybody doesn’t the big a lot of trouble. If you would just arrest the woman who did this. If the evidence leaves us alone, we will do just that. Chanel, why don’t you stay here and, oh, wait, you talking to a second?

Well, we just wanna get an account from both of you so we can compare notes. Now it’s better to do that separately.

All right. Thanks again for coming in. Sure. But as like I said, I already told you everything I know. I realize that. But if you could pretend that you haven’t told me everything you know, and tell me again in as much detail as possible, the winds and the wearers, starting with the preparation of the dough, the night you bake those biscuits up until the following morning.

Okay, well let’s see the preparation that night. Well, it was tall, his recipe, so I know this is kind of intense, but it’s just routine. Okay. Promise I’m not gonna shut to bright. Lighten your eyes or bark any questions at ya. Don’t need to be nervous. Well, I thank you, but um, I’m actually not nervous at all.

I’m just here to help however I can so you can nail the person who’s doing this to my friend Chanel. She’s trying to ruin her business and her life.

All the ingredients were delivered by our regular supplier that afternoon. Uh, it would be, um, whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, yogurt, honey butter, and buttermilk. Okay. So they couldn’t have been tampered with before you got to work? No. If, if something was off with them, then I would’ve known. And you didn’t stray from Talia’s recipe?

No, not at all. It’s a great recipe. Well, normally it is. We made a lot of those biscuits. I mean, it’s a new item and we were giving away free samples. Um, anyways, when we were done with the dough, um, we set it aside to rest, and then we close a little early for the day. Since we’re usually busiest in the morning, in the afternoon, things slow down.

How early did you close. What time? Uh, about four Talia and I said goodbye. We went our separate ways and then I went home to my mama’s and then I came to the police station and I talked to you. That’s right. Yep. You were looking for your sister and I was maybe a little too pushy. I mean, talking to you about her, you know your possible feelings towards her.

I remember. Yeah. Yeah. But let’s stick to the topic at hand, shall we? So where’d you go after you left here? Oh, um, I went back to the square. I wound up going back to the square so that I could grab dinner from me and my mama from the bistro. And before I left, mama told me about Sloan’s threatening text, and I was angry.

Really, really angry. Horrified, actually. And then I ran into Sloan and I actually got there just in time because Sloan and Chano were having this. Knocked down, drag out fight and I had to stop him. Sloane was saying all sorts of like cruel things about Chanel and her mom, and then she stormed off. Chanel was actually very, very upset.

She made a cut on her arm. I just tried to calm her down. So we went back to Sweet Bitch. There is a first aid kit in the kitchen, TAA patch me up and the dough, it was still there resting. Untouched and we turned off the security system when we went back in so no one could have gotten in there before then.

And um, when we were done, Chanel asked if I wanted to have dinner with her and her family. I guess I was just really excited about that. It was such a nice invitation and I really wasn’t expecting it. So, um, I forgot to just turn an alarm back on. You were excited. Chanel’s a new friend. That’s exciting, right?

Sure. Yeah. And you forgot to turn the alarm on? Yes. Um, she even asked me to do it, but I guess I just wasn’t thinking. And what time was that at? Uh, probably 15 after five, somewhere around there. And you returned to work when? Five the next morning. So roughly 12 hours unaccounted for. Ado just sitting there in the kitchen with no alarm set and no security camera on, which is all my fault.

I, I, I, I really can’t believe I forgot. This is not Holly’s fault. I mean, it’s not like she’s in the habit of turning on the security system, you know, she hasn’t even been working there that long. Right? So later at your place, nothing to tell. We had takeout from the bistro and just sat around the table talking, listen, nice evening.

And then I went straight home to rest up for the next morning. Well, you know the rest, it was a disaster.

Thanks again, ladies. We appreciate your cooperation. Yeah, I just hope this helps nail Sloan and that she’s locked away for good. She’s the only one who could have done this. Yeah, I agree. I can’t think of anybody else who would wanna hurt Chanel like this. Well, I’ll see you at home later. Um, hey, uh, you don’t have to come back with me.

I’m just gonna go and lock up for the day or for the rest of our lives. Chanel, stop. Don’t say that. Okay. The customers will come back. I know it. We’ll see.

Hi. Were they here? Is there a new development of Shanova? Just going over the timeline. There’s a 12 hour window when those biscuits could have been tampered with. Well, you got your work cut out for you. I just saw Sloan and she’s got a solid alibi for the night before Eric Brady. He spent the night with her.

She could have slipped out during the night while he was asleep. No villa proven it. Any other suspects we’re working on it.

Hey, ugh. It’s a hell of a way to start a day. Don’t let trash get underneath your skin. You got the truth on your side. You would be shocked how little that actually matters. I didn’t drug that dough, though it wasn’t me. Someone did. Someone drugged it and made everyone in this town go totally nuts, including you and Nicole.

Well, well, well, Mr. Damira, you outdid yourself. Oh, I’m glad you approved. Oh, not only approved, I was impressed as I was with you. I put you on the spot there, but I knew I could count on you. Mm-hmm.

Ready to go beam up to the mothership. Excuse me. Oh, I’m just messing with you brother. Figured we could carpool though. No more the merrier. Right? You can drive. Oh, I intend to brother. Let’s do this.

I dunno if we could only think of someone else who could have done this. I mean, who else has it in for Chanel, that’s a tough one. Since everybody in this town seems to just love that girl and her mother. Melinda did make one good point though. I mean, at first I thought for sure it was Paulina and Chanel that were doing this, but why would they hurt Chanel’s business by drugging half the city just to get at me?

No. Well, no, it wouldn’t be worth it. You’re right. So if we’re gonna figure this out, we need a first thing. Who was the intended target exactly. Was it Chanel or was it me and I have 5:15 PM as the time they left Sweet bits for the last time that day without setting the security cameras check. Yeah, the rest was pretty inconsequential.

They both had dinner with Pauline and Abe. Yeah, I got that too. Yep. And then your sister went straight home after that. Chanel stayed behind and they didn’t see each other till 5:00 AM the next morning. So check out, huh? Oh yeah. 5:00 AM Yep. Got it. Wait, what did you just say?

Thanks for watching everything. Oh, it was no problem, baby girl. Well, uh, you are officially relieved of duty. I’m just gonna close up for the day. Well, how’d it go at the station? I’ll fill you in later. All I can think about right now is I’m gonna lose my bakery. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You are not. I will not let that happen.

No. It’s gonna be okay, sweetheart. I promise you. No, mama. It’s not. Yes, yes, daughter. It is. And I’m going to convince you of it tonight. Mm-hmm. Over a wonderful meal, which I will cook for you and Talia, and we’ll have a lovely meal and then we’ll figure out how to get your business up and running again.

That is really sweet. But I already sent Talia home. For the day.

I don’t understand. All I did was ask you what happened after Chanel and Talia left sweet bits, and you not only haven’t answered, you seem kind of upset. What’s up, Jada? I just realized.

Natalia told you is not true.

[ Relaxing music ]

Ridge: My boys. Look at us, huh?

Taylor: Such handsome fellas.

Ridge: I know! And the forrester men back together, in this building!

[ All chuckling ]

Brooke: Oh, we are so excited to have you home, rj.

Rj: Good to be home, mom.

Taylor: Oh, my gosh. I– I think you are– you are overjoyed right now.

Ridge: I am overjoyed!

Brooke: He’s beaming!

Ridge: And I’m beaming. Know why I’m beaming? Because I’m here with these– they were boys five minutes ago, now they’re men.

[ Rj laughs ] And the possibilities are endless.

Steffy: What are you asking, liam? Is there something more drawing hope to thomas?

Liam: That’s what I’m asking you. Do you think that?

Steffy: Like… what? The collection? Thomas coming up with these new designs?

Liam: No, not– not work.

Steffy: Okay, so… douglas? Their role as parents? Douglas is always gonna keep them connected. And you know that. The four of you have been navigating that for a while… okay, so if it’s not work or parenting, why do you think hope and thomas wanna spend all this time together?

[ Liam sighs ]

Liam: Listen, douglas is always gonna tie hope and thomas together. That’s not– I’ve made peace with that.

Steffy: But you’re worried about something else now?

Liam: That’s what I’m asking. Should I be?

Steffy: And I already told you no!

Liam: I know, I know, but the– ugh. It’s just the feeling. The feeling is not going away. I mean, I– look, I admit it. I thought that thomas was gonna be out of the company, right? I thought that he was gonna be out of hope for the future, and turns out that’s not true, and I’m trying to make peace with that too, but I also don’t wanna come off as this overbearing, overprotective, controlling husband.

Steffy: Okay, nobody thinks that. You love hope, you’re worried about her. Her well-being matters to you. There is nothing wrong with that. But I honestly don’t think that you need to be concerned about thomas having feelings for your wife.

Hope: I think you might’ve gotten here just in time, thomas.

Thomas: Why’s that?

Hope: Oh, to rescue your half-brother.

Thomas: Oh, yeah?

Brooke: Yeah, ridge has been putting on the pressure for rj to work here.

Rj: Yeah, well, too bad for him I inherited all of his stubbornness, so…

Ridge: And what else did you get? You got my ambition and you got your mom’s ingenuity. So this is not about pressure. It’s a proud dad saying, “there’s a lot of potential here.”

What are folks 60 and older

up to these days?

Steffy: You’re worried about hope having feelings for thomas?

Liam: What? No! No. I don’t think so. No, it’s just– [ Sighs ] I mean, something– something keeps drawing hope back to thomas. I just don’t know what it is, that’s all.

Steffy: She always likes to see the best in everyone, so.

Liam: Well, yeah, but that’s the– like, I keep, you know, I keep thinking of all the horrible things he’s done to her, and yet he’s still in her life.

Steffy: Yeah, okay, you can’t ignore the fact that they work together, they share a child together, raising a child.

Liam: I promise you, I’m not ignoring anything. If anything, it’s the opposite. I’m on high alert all the time, and I hate it. It stresses me out.

Steffy: Do you need me to tell you that you’re crazy?

Liam: Yeah, probably.

Steffy: I can’t stop you from worrying, liam.

Liam: And I can’t– I know that I can’t ask you to– I’m– I’m not asking you to do anything creepy or weird, like spy on hope, okay? It’s not your problem.

Steffy: Right, ’cause… that would be weird.

Liam: I–

Steffy: And crazy.

Liam: I didn’t mean it like that. I’m just– I just don’t know– I wanna know–

[ Groans ] I wanna know what I’m dealing with, that’s all. That’s all. I wanna know what I’m dealing with, and… maybe… I’ve underestimated hope.

Steffy: Underestimated her how?

Liam: I don’t know. I mean, you know, I– I keep asking myself, like, “well, how could she put up with all these things that thomas has done, all the things he’s put her through?” But, like, she puts up with me. She puts up with how much I care about you. She puts up with our history. She puts up with our family. She puts up with all of that.

Steffy: Yeah, but hope and i are past that. There’s– we don’t have any issues–

Liam: That– that’s my point. That’s what I’m saying. I mean, maybe hope just really is that generous, and… I can’t see it because… I’m not.

[ Steffy sighs ]

Steffy: Liam, I– I gotta get to work.

Liam: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Steffy: But just know that… thomas is in a much better place, okay? My father has forgiven him, and thomas knows how lucky he is to have it, have this chance, and I promise you, he is not gonna sabotage it. Okay? It’ll be fine. Like I said, I promise, all right? All right, I gotta head out.

Liam: Okay.

Ridge: My father built this company for his kids, and now I wanna share it with you guys. Thomas, can you please just tell him how good it would be to have him on board?

Thomas: Well, honestly, I– I don’t know if he needs to come on board, or wants to. I mean, I’ve been seeing the stuff you’ve been doing recently. It’s– it’s innovative, and I’m impressed.

Rj: Thanks, man.

Ridge: How is that helping, thomas?

Taylor: You know what, why don’t you just be happy that rj’s home?

Ridge: I am–

Thomas: Okay, look, look. Hey. You’re a forrester, right? You’re rj, ridge jr. If you want a place here at the company, it’s yours. You have birthright here as much as I do.

Ridge: Well said. And very true.

Rj: Come on, dad. You don’t want all of your kids working here, do you?

Thomas: Hey. Just know you’re welcome.

Rj: I appreciate it.

Brooke: Okay. I can understand why your father wants you to work here. I would love to have you here as well. But, we, as your parents, we’re not gonna be pushy. We’re going to allow you to follow your own path.

Ridge: Yeah. What your mom said, absolutely. As long as your own path, maybe it leads you back here into this office, that’s all.

Brooke: [ Laughs ] Oh, god.

Ridge: What? When you dare to transform your hair

Liam: Sorry! Sorry, sorry, sorry. Hi!

Wyatt: I was just texting you.

Liam: I know, yeah.

Wyatt: You totally missed the meeting, man.

Liam: Okay, I– it was–

[ Laughs ] Got here soon as I could. Just a last-minute thing, wasn’t– wasn’t something I planned.

Wyatt: Oh, unlike this meeting that’s been on the books for weeks now.

Liam: Are you okay? Did you handle it?

Wyatt: Yes, I’m fine.

Liam: All right.

Wyatt: And yes, that’s what I do. Probably better you weren’t here anyway. You’d screw things up. Clients like me better.

Liam: Oh my god, yeah, you’re not upset at all.

Wyatt: I will be if you think you’re gonna get a free lunch out of this.

Liam: I mean, I’m a little hungry–

Wyatt: Nope.

Liam: Why?

Wyatt: ‘Cause you gotta work a little bit for me to be able–

Liam: No. Just–

Wyatt: No. Expense account–

Liam: One–

Wyatt: No.

Liam: One appetizer.

Wyatt: I’m gonna tell dad.

Liam: I’ll eat my spring rolls, you can give me the whole play-by-play of how you, you know, closed the deal and saved the company and yadda-yadda-yadda.

Wyatt: You know what? I got a better idea.

Liam: What?

Wyatt: How about you tell me where the hell you were? Because I know you, and I know something’s eating at you. So why’d you bail on me?

Liam: I was with steffy.

Taylor: Okay, so, sorry to interrupt. This is– this is pretty wonderful, huh?

Ridge: Yeah.

Hope: It absolutely is, because I can’t believe that rj didn’t tell anyone that he was coming home.

Taylor: Okay, well, if your mom had known, she would’ve– she wouldn’t have been able to keep it to herself. She would’ve been too excited.

Hope: Yeah, it’s true.

Rj: Hey, thomas? I think we need to have a little talk.

Thomas: I think I know what this is about.

Rj: You up to your old tricks again, thomas?

Thomas: Yeah, look, um… I did some pretty terrible things. I hurt both of our families. But I’m not gonna do anything like that again.

Rj: So I’ve heard.

Thomas: Yeah, look, I– I was ostracized from the family, from the company and it hurt, really bad, but it caused me to turn inward, you know, look at myself and figure out my issues and I think I did, so I think I am a different person now.

Rj: Okay. I– I hope so.

Thomas: Hey, we all change, right? Even you.

Rj: Listen, I– I’ve been away for a while, thomas, doing my own thing, but that doesn’t mean I was kept out of the loop. I kept up with everything, okay? So, like, I just– like I told mom and dad, I just– I don’t wanna get involved in any family drama, okay?

Thomas: I don’t wanna start any.

Rj: I still have to put you on notice. I can’t let you mess around with my mom and dad again, or my big sister.

Thomas: Yeah. I respect that.

Rj: Okay.

Thomas: So, we’re good?

Rj: Yeah. Yeah, we’re– we’re good. I don’t know, I figure if our moms could get along, at least become friends, there’s no reason we can’t be.

[ Taylor and brooke chattering ]

[ Laughing & chatting ]

Thomas: Yeah. You know, I, uh… I never thought I would see that happening.

Rj: Yeah, it’s gonna take some getting used to. Now, I’m not gonna lie, it’s actually one of the reasons I came back. Mom and taylor have been rivals, I think, for my entire life?

[ Chuckles ] Like, I had to see it for myself.

Thomas: Yeah, I know. I know. Hey, look, um… we, uh, we haven’t exactly been that close recently, but you know you’re my half-brother and we can change that, right? We can spend more time together and I think we should. Well, hey, I mean, we have the same name, right? But you got stuck with our dad’s name too, and that– that kinda sucks.

Rj: [ Laughs ] Yeah. Yeah, it’s definitely– it’s hard to make a name for yourself when you share yours with someone as legendary as ridge forrester.

Thomas: Yeah, no kidding.

[ Both chuckling ]

Brooke: Wow! Lots of laughing coming from over here.

Ridge: Yeah, what are you guys talking about?

Rj: Oh, you know, just the trials and tribulations of being forrester men, saddled with the insurmountable legacy of our amazingly talented and well-respected father.

Thomas: Well put.

Rj: How will we ever measure up?

[ Laughs ]

Steffy: Dad, charlie’s going on about some huge surprise? What’s–

Rj: Surprise.

Steffy: Rj?

[ Rj laughs ] Oh, my god. Rj! What? Oh, my goodness!

[ Laughing ] Oh, my god. I don’t feel my age. Why should my skin?

Wyatt: You missed the meeting because you were with steffy?

Liam: Well, ye– and traffic was awful, by the way.

Wyatt: Dude, we have been working on this deal for weeks now. I cleared my whole afternoon.

Liam: Yeah, it’s not like I wanted to be late, man. I– I just, time got away from me, I’m sorry.

Wyatt: Time got away from you.

Liam: I texted you and I told you I was running late.

Wyatt: Oh, must’ve been some kind of emergency, then, with kelly? Better have been.

Liam: Kind of.

Wyatt: Hm.

Liam: Kind of a mini-emergency. She left her homework at steffy’s, and then– and then we started talking, and, uh, yeah. That’s all.

Wyatt: About?

Liam: What do you think? Thomas.

Wyatt: Great. Our favorite person.

Liam: Who’s– who’s our server today? Is it–

Wyatt: Mm-mm. Uh-uh. No foodsie ’til you explainsie–

Liam: Why?

Wyatt: What’s going on? I thought you and steffy already got into this?

Liam: We did. We have. We’ve– she– she’s still insisting that I have nothing to worry about.

Wyatt: Is there any reason why you should be?

Liam: I– I– I want to believe her. I do.

Wyatt: Okay. So then you’re gonna stop bugging her? You’re gonna stop flaking on meetings and everything? Is that it?

Liam: Oh, my god, wyatt. It’s this one time.

Wyatt: Yeah, but it’s just not like you! You’re mr. Reliable! Okay, if this is gonna throw you off your game here, then you need to find some way to get past it. We got quarterlies coming up.

Liam: Then we want the same thing because I do wanna find a way past it, and that’s why i was talking to steffy. I want– I want– I want… assurance.

Wyatt: And did you get it? Because I don’t wanna hear that you bailed on me for nothing.

Liam: Steffy says that she and thomas and the whole family are in a really good place right now, so…

Wyatt: Aw. Terrific.

Liam: Maybe that means thomas will keep his damn head on straight.

Wyatt: Fine. I forgive you.

Liam: Aw–

Wyatt: A little bit. A little bit. Because I know steffy and the family have been going through a lot lately, with the sheila thing and ridge going mia and thomas disappearing and reappearing like a magic act.

Liam: See? You get it. Forresters need all the good news they can get right now. And I need all the bruschetta I can eat right now. Please? Please? Please.

Wyatt: Fine.

Liam: Yes!

Steffy: I can’t believe you’re here. Where have you been hiding? Why didn’t anyone tell me that you were here?

Rj: Well, nobody knew.

Brooke: He just showed up.

Rj: Yeah, I wanted to surprise everybody.

Steffy: Well, you succeeded. Look at dad’s face.

Ridge: What about my face?

Steffy: Your face. [ Laughs ] No, it’s lit up. So is brooke’S.

Brooke: I know. We’re so happy.

Steffy: I can tell. Especially dad. You must be so happy to have your son back. No offense, thomas.

Thomas: No taken, stef.

Taylor: [ Chuckles ] And these two are actually getting along.

Steffy: Kinda like you and brooke.

Rj: Steffy, you’re still a rock star.

Steffy: Obviously. See, this is the kind of energy we need around here, okay?

Rj: Oh, no, please, don’t you also start. He’s– he’s enough to handle. You’re a whole lot tougher.

Thomas: She is pretty tough.

Steffy: Yeah.

Rj: Nothing can keep you down, steffy.

Steffy: I could say the same about you, mr. Adventure-seeker. What, you were, like, scaling mountains and jumping off of them? So, what are you doing now? What brings you back to L.A.?

Rj: Aw, you know, I’ve just got some opportunities, but i really wanna just stick around, spend some time with my family.

Steffy: I think that’s an excellent idea.

Brooke: I think it’s a great idea. Yeah.

Ridge: And you know what? We still haven’t figured out what he’s gonna do for a job while he’s here, but that can wait. We don’t have to do that right now, just because I have a request.

Rj: If he tells you to offer me a job, I already have one.

Ridge: Okay, “request” is not the right word. I– I have, um… I have an idea. And this is something that would mean a lot to me, and it’s actually the first time we can do it, because these two ladies finally get along, and I’m totally on board.

Taylor: Okay, what– what is it? What?

Ridge: Can we just all get together and have a picture of the two mothers and all the kids? Can we do that, please?

Brooke: Oh, a picture? Yeah. We should do that. Let’s do it. Okay, rj, come here!

[ Overlapping chatter ]

Hope: Here, I can take it.

Ridge: No! I– no, you’re gonna be in the picture.

Hope: Okay, so then are you gonna do it?

Ridge: Hang on. Yeah, you need to be in it because you’re not my daughter, but you’re part of my family, have been for a long time, so.

Hope: Okay. I love that.

Ridge: Okay. You. Eat your heart out. This is how you do selfies.

Rj: Oh, all right, dad.

Steffy: Gotta turn it the other way.

Rj: Come on, show me how it’s done.

Ridge: I got it! This, right?

Taylor: Well, you– yeah.

Steffy: Go like that.

Rj: There you go.

Ridge: Oh, yeah, yeah.

Steffy: Okay, your thumb’s–

Ridge: I can’t even believe–

[ All complaining ] Hey, shh, shh! Stop, stop, stop! Just take a moment, take this moment. Look at us. We got half-brothers and half-sisters and mothers and dads, and we’re all here, and… people always tell me I– I have two families, and I don’T. I have one. One beautiful, blended family, and I wouldn’t change a thing.

[ Mouthing ] Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Taylor: Very nice speech.

Ridge: All right, we’ll start from the beginning. Okay, what do I do?

Steffy: Hit the button.

Taylor: Make sure you get all of our heads.

Rj: There you go. Big circle.

Ridge: Yeah, yeah. I know!

Brooke: You got it.

Ridge: Okay.

Steffy: No, don’t go–

Taylor: Don’t go up.

Ridge: Okay, ready?

Brooke: Okay.

Victor: Tucker mccall. I’ll be damned.

Tucker: Morning. Uh, the deal is finalized. Contract signed. So congratulations, you’re now the proud owner of mccall unlimited.

Victor: Excellent. I have pre-approved the wire transfer, and I will put the money into your account as soon as we end this conversation. Anything else?

Tucker: Uh, no. No, that should be it.

Victor: Good. Well, tucker, on a personal level, you’re probably relieved no longer having to deal with the vicissitudes of running a huge company. So you’re free of any responsibility. No ties to anyone. Congratulations.

Ashley: So I thought that maybe things would be better now with diane gone, but no such luck. Even though she’s in jail, her presence is everywhere. Because jack is going on and on about how she’s innocent. He’s convinced. And he’s gonna do anything he can to save her, of course. But I couldn’t stand it anymore. I told him that this desire he has to marry diane is just gonna wreak havoc with our family and the company. And guess what his solution was. Again, he’s telling me I should move out. I can’t believe him.

Abby: Uh… mom, maybe uncle jack’s right? Maybe you should move out.

Sally: God, this is amazing. I mean, it’s just… amazing.

Nick: It is.

Sally: I mean, it’s like some kind of miracle that they can just take a picture of the baby, my baby, and here it is. In black and white. Its– its perfect little everything. And to hear the heartbeat again. Did you hear it?

Nick: Yeah, I did. Nice and strong.

Sally: Man, I… I thought I was in love with this little one before, but it’s–

Adam: It’s incredible.

[ Chuckles ] I can’t believe we’re having a little baby girl.

Christine: So where are things at with jeremy stark? Any luck tracking down my key witness?

Chance: Uh, nothing so far. This guy knows how to disappear. But this has fired me up even more to find him.

Christine: Well, I think michael might be searching for him too, since he and jack are certain that he’s the killer. I… wonder if he’s had better luck.

Jack: Glad you could make it.

Lauren: I have to say, I was very surprised to hear from you. I thought you’d be too busy trying to clear your fiancee of murder charges. You’ve certainly kept michael very busy.

Jack: Go ahead, say it. You hate me for convincing michael to take diane’s case. Hey! It’s your dry skin.

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by…

Lauren: I could never hate you, jack. But I sure as hell wish that you had gotten another defense attorney.

Jack: I know how difficult it is for michael to be taking diane’s case right now.

Lauren: No, you really don’T. So you know what? I think we should just handle things the way that we’re handling things at home.

Jack: How is that?

Lauren: To not talk about it. We’re not saying a word because anything leads to an argument. And I could– I– I could really use a friend right now. And I think you could too.

Jack: Yeah.

Lauren: You seem very, very stressed.

Jack: Yeah, it’s been a tough time. Especially at home. Summer is understandably devastated. Kyle is shaken by the whole thing. The two of them aren’t talking. Ashley and I shouldn’t be in the same room together. Allie moved in with noah to get away from all the tension, and, well, tracy was the smart one and took off for new york. Anyway, I’m glad I have a purpose, a real goal, A… direction to occupy my days.

Lauren: Yeah. I mean, michael is so occupied– broke my own rule there.

Jack: How are you doing in all this? You just lost your best friend.

Lauren: I miss phyllis… every day.

Jack: Yeah, it’s a big loss for a lot of us.

Lauren: And I just don’t see a resolution that’s gonna give anyone any peace.

Ashley: Are you taking jack’s side?

Abby: I’m not taking a side. It’s just if you’re so unhappy–

Ashley: It’s my home.

Abby: And you’re miserable there.

Ashley: I’m not gonna let jack chase me away.

Abby: It’s not a turf war, mom.

Ashley: It kind of is, and you’re clearly taking jack’s side.

Abby: I’m not, I just want you to find some sort of peace of mind.

Ashley: Okay, but I’m not gonna let my brother kick me out of my home.

Abby: Okay. Well, since you’re clearly gonna be stubborn about this, I’m gonna go to the kitchen and check on a couple things. But when I come back, if you’d like to look at some video of dominic at the zoo yesterday, it’s so cute. He is all about the giraffes.

Ashley: I would love to see that. That’ll cheer me up.

Abby: Okay.

Adam: Doesn’t it look like she’s sucking her thumb?

Sally: [ Laughs ] Totally.

[ Laughs ]

Nick: I’m glad the appointment was moved from yesterday to today. Built up the anticipation.

Sally: I’m sorry, what?

Nick: I was saying, it really worked out that the sonogram was moved from yesterday to today.

[ Chuckles ] You know, this baby’s gonna be very lucky. It will be spoiled by every member of the newman family.

Sally: Oh, yeah. Not really exactly ready to face that fact.

Adam: Yeah, why don’t you just let us enjoy this perfect moment before unleashing the threat of the newmans?

Nick: I’m just saying. It’s gonna be loved.

Sally: Agreed. Yeah, our… little girl is going to have a whole lot of love. Some might say more than her fair share. My moderate to severe plaque psoriasis…

Adam: She’s already spectacular.

Sally: Little chamomile.

[ Both laughing ]

Sally: What’s up?

Nick: It’s nothing that can’t wait.

Sally: If you need to go deal with work, you can go. I mean, you were already here for the big reveal at the doctor’s office. If you need to go, go.

Nick: I probably should get it out of the way.

Sally: Okay, yeah. Don’t worry about me.

Nick: I’ll call you afterwards.

Sally: Yeah. You walking out too?

Adam: No, you can go ahead.

Nick: Oh, okay. I’ll call you later.

Sally: Bye.

[ Clears throat ] Are you thinking that she looks like you? ‘Cause I gotta be honest, I think she looks a little bit more like me.

[ Laughs ]

Adam: You don’t think that there’s miracles, and then you see something like this little girl. Our baby girl.

Abby: Here you go, dad.

Victor: Thank you, sweetheart. There we go. Now, wait a minute. Your mother ran out of here in a hurry. What was that all about?

Abby: [ Sighs ] Uncle jack and mom have turned their home into a war zone over diane, so I was trying to convince her to move out for a while.

Victor: I don’t think your mother can be convinced to move out of her own home.

Abby: You know her so well.

Victor: I don’t blame her being frustrated with people who are defending diane jenkins. My goodness. There you are, son.

Nick: Hey, dad. Hey, abby.

Abby: Hi. Can I get you a coffee or anything?

Nick: Uh, no, thanks. I’m not gonna be here that long.

Abby: Okay. Don’t break anything.

Victor: We won’T.

Nick: What’s up? I was in the middle of something important.

Victor: I just purchased mccall. The deal is finalized.

Nick: Well, there you go. You got what you wanted. That has nothing to do with me, though.

Victor: Well, it does, son, because adam will run it. And the company is in somewhat bad shape. Will take quite some effort to straighten it up.

Nick: Oh, I’m sure. Why are you telling me this?

Victor: I want you to join adam at mccall. Hi, I’m lauren, I lost 67 pounds on golo. Happy mother’s day! Oh my gosh! My mom deserves the best, and the best gifts are from harry and david. Chocolate. Yummy! Cheese. Gouda. Wine. What’s that? It’s from harry and david. Aww. Thank you!

Nick: You cannot be serious. Why on earth would I join adam at mccall? I have a job, dad. A great job, at newman, in the family business. I have zero interest in some consolation prize that you bought for adam just so you can keep him out of trouble.

Victor: I understand your point of view, son. But hear me out. Victoria, your sister, has your mother to back her up. Adam is about to embark upon a very difficult job trying to straighten out that company. I want you to help him.

[ Scoffs ]

Nick: Ah, you’ve outdone yourself this time. It’s impressive. But that is never gonna happen.

Victor: You told me the other day that you and adam and sally actually get along for the sake of the child. Why can’t you do the same thing for the sake of family unity?

Nick: Here we are back to me and sally, and this time you even brought up the kid. It’s an all-time low. I don’t have time for this.

Victor: Son, please sit down. I’m not finished yet.

Sally: You know, I have to say, you have been pretty amazing navigating this whole thing.

Adam: Uh, I’ll take that. It definitely hasn’t been easy.

[ Sally sighs ] I don’t wanna overstep, but… I am so excited.

Sally: I know, right?

[ Laughs ]

Adam: But I don’t wanna say anything to upset you or– or nick. I just… I wanna stay in my lane.

Sally: The daddy lane.

Adam: [ Chuckles ] That kinda has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?

Sally: It does, yeah. So, question number one, asked and answered. Question number two… how do you feel about having a little girl?

Adam: I– I love it. I definitely love it, but… I’m baffled.

Sally: Baffled how?

Adam: Oh, I have no idea about little girls.

Sally: Yeah, but you have nieces.

[ Adam scoffs ]

Adam: It’s not the same. Uncles get all the fun stuff. Dad… I mean, how am I gonna be able to say no to our perfect little daughter when she’s looking up at me with those big blue eyes?

Sally: They could be brown.

Adam: Well, no matter what color they are, I am not gonna be able to say no. I wanna be wrapped so tight around her little finger.

Sally: Well, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. At least you’ve been a parent. I mean, I know nothing about kids, and my parents sucked.

[ Chuckles ] But you’re a wonderful father to connor, and he’s a great kid.

Adam: Yeah.

Sally: And so is christian.

Adam: Oh, that’s– that’s thanks to nick and– and chelsea.

Sally: Yeah. I mean, they’re part of the mix, but… I think that there is nurture and nature involved in how a kid turns out.

Adam: Yeah, that’s– that’s exactly what I’m afraid of.

Sally: What do you mean?

Adam: Maybe a reason that I’m glad we’re having a girl is because there’s less of a chance that I’ll screw the kid up, either from my genes or influence.

Sally: So if we had a boy, you would be worried that the kid would turn out like you?

Lauren: You probably don’t wanna deal with christine. Should we just go somewhere else?

Jack: No, no, no. I’m not running. I know diane is innocent. Christine will have to admit that too when the truth comes out. I’m– I’m sorry. The topic’s kinda hard to avoid.

Lauren: It’s all hard. You know? This morning, I got up, I was so excited to meet with this new designer.

[ Voice breaks ] You know, and the first thing I wanted to do was I wanted to go pick up the phone and I wanted to call phyllis and tell her about it. But I couldn’T.

[ Sobs ] Because she’s gone. And not just gone. This horrible, pointless death where I didn’t even have a chance to say goodbye to her. Ugh, before you know it, I was a mess and I wanted to cancel my meeting, and…

Jack: But you didn’T.

[ Lauren sighs ]

Lauren: I wanted to. But then you called. And I could hear phyllis saying to me, “stop with the waterworks and get your sorry self out of bed.”

Jack: Yeah, that is phyllis.

Lauren: That was phyllis. How could she be gone? Her spirit, and… her never-ending energy.

[ Sighs shakily ] What are we gonna do without her?

[ Knocking on door ]

Tucker: You came.

[ Laughs ] Come on in.

Ashley: Do you need any help packing?

Tucker: No, I’m good.

Ashley: Where are you going?

Tucker: I hear sri lanka’s nice this time of year. Maybe peru.

Ashley: Just like that, huh?

Tucker: Mm-hmm. There’s nothing keeping me here. I sold mccall. So whatever that company was to me before, an ego trip, my life’s work or a possible legacy for my son, it’s victor’s now.

Ashley: You’re quitting.

Tucker: I… [ Laughs ] I’m embracing my future outside of genoa city.

Ashley: Right.

Tucker: Right.

Ashley: So you said you had something for me.

Tucker: Oh, yes. Yeah. Just wanted to make good on one thing before I left. I wanted to get one of those– those big ceremonial checks, you know?

Ashley: [ Laughs ] Right.

Tucker: But this will have to do. So, you see that?

Ashley: Yeah.

Tucker: There you are. Mccall’s debt repaid, with market-rate interest.

Ashley: Thank you.

Tucker: You’re welcome. So… right? No debt between us anymore.

Ashley: Mm-hmm.

Tucker: No more you using it to keep me under your thumb, which has been a blast, but… game over now.

Ashley: So it’s just like that. You’re leaving.

Tucker: I am exploring other corners of the world.

Ashley: So in other words, you’re a coward.

Tucker: Whatever you say, ashley.

Ashley: I mean, what about devon and dominic? You can’t just leave. You can’t just walk away.

Tucker: Devon wants nothing to do with me.

Ashley: So you’re just gonna slink off like that? It’s unattractive.

Tucker: [ Scoffs ] I look good on a private jet.

[ Ashley laughs ] It’s not slinking off.

Ashley: Look, you know what? I– I had a– I had a plan. I thought it was a pretty good plan. I just wanted you to mend your relationship with devon, you know? ‘Cause yours is a story of redemption, and it– it meant a lot to me that you were gonna be redeemed, so–

Tucker: You know, I– I don’t need to be redeemed by you.

Ashley: Heard. You’re right.

Tucker: Okay. Wait a minute. I’m sorry. Wait! You see, this is what you do to me.

Ashley: What? I make you say mean, stupid things?

Tucker: Yes. You know that I tried with devon and I’ve tried with you. Obviously, it didn’t work.

[ Laughing ] I think dominic is the only person in this town who can stand me. You know, I don’t like to admit defeat, but I’m defeated, ashley. There’s nothing– nothing left for me. There’s no place for me here.

Ashley: There might be a place for you. Why don’t you move in with me? We’re done.

“The young and the restless” will continue. (Vo) get them to open up.

Tucker: Move in with you.

[ Scoffs ] Is this the bright idea that just came to you?

Ashley: I– I– I gave it some thought.

Tucker: What the hell are you talking about? I opened a vein to you the other day and you just shut me down. Now, you wanna be roomies? Wow. You know, you say I’m the one who enjoys the game. You’re the– you’re the game master. So, no. No, thank you. I’m not biting. I’m not moving in with you. I wouldn’t do it even if you were serious about it.

Ashley: We wouldn’t share a room. Obviously, you’d have your own guest room.

Tucker: Oh, well, in that case, sign me up. Uh, if there’s nothing else–

Ashley: There is something else. Yeah. Your son. Your grandson. You know, you need to stick around so you can fix things with them, and I think it would be very intelligent if you did that. Yes, because then I could watch and make sure that it happened.

Tucker: Yeah, I– I can do that from this room if I wanted to stay. I don’t wanna stay.

Ashley: There also is unfinished business with us. You were right. What you said the other day about me putting walls up where you’re concerned. And by the way, rightfully so. However, when I see you packing and everything, I’m just– you know, I’m not ready for you to go.

Christine: Oh, lauren, hi. I’m happy to see you. Could we talk for a minute?

Lauren: Oh. Uh, yeah. Come on.

Christine: Okay. I really just wanted to see how you were doing. I can’t imagine everything you’re going through, and I know you can’t be happy with michael defending diane.

Lauren: You know what? I’m– I’m not happy with any of it, actually.

[ Voice breaks ] Mostly about losing my best friend. But I’m– I’m so damn angry at my husband that we can’t even grieve this together. And I don’t understand. I mean, he and phyllis were so close. How could he possibly defend this monster? I– I’m sorry. I– I’m sorry. I know this, uh, can’t be easy for you either.

Christine: Yeah. I mean, it’s not exactly the case I would’ve chosen to prosecute, but as da, it goes with the territory. I have a job to do. [ Chuckles ] And I’m doing it. Just like michael’s doing his.

Jack: So what are you doing to find stark? He’s the guilty party, you know.

Chance: Actually, I don’t know that.

Jack: Oh, come on. He’s had it out for me and diane. Framing her is payback.

Chance: Oh, for when you two set him up on larceny charges for a necklace?

Jack: What are the police doing to find him? You tracking him? You– you got any leads?

Chance: You know, I don’t have to have this conversation–

Jack: An innocent woman is behind bars.

Chance: If you have a problem with how the case is being handled, the da’s right through there.

Jack: Oh, yes. I know. She wants to put her away.

Chance: She will have a fair trial, jack. So let me do my job.

Jack: A fair trial. She had everything she could possibly have wanted. Why would she throw that away? She has been set up. Stark had every reason to wanna hurt phyllis. You find him, you find your murderer. Unless the gcpd isn’t up to the task.

Sharon: Excuse me. Excuse me, gentlemen. Can we tone this down?

Christine: Jack, please step away.

Jack: Things aren’t always as they seem.

Adam: I know it’s not logical. But, yeah, I’m– I’m afraid if we had a son that he would turn out to be a little mini-me, and… that’s the last thing the world needs.

Sally: Okay, do I need to point out connor and christian again?

Adam: Yeah, but maybe they turned out great in spite of me, not because of me. I mean, it’s not like I’m some stellar role model or have my act together. I mean, I don’t even have a job right now.

Sally: Okay. All right. We’re shutting this down right now because as our baby girl’s co-parent, I need you to be confident.

Adam: But I’m just, I’ve screwed up a lot.

Sally: Yeah, you have. You’ve made some terrible choices, but you have owned your mistakes. You’ve learned and you’ve grown, and you know how to love. I see it every time you’re with connor. That kid means everything to you, and he adores you right back. He is smart, he’s kind, he’s funny. He’s everything like his father, so I don’t wanna hear any more about how you’re gonna screw up our kid, because it’s impossible. Okay? She’s– she’s gonna be perfect.

Adam: Well, thank you for believing in me. And I will do my best to put aside my fears and insecurities for you and for our baby girl.

Sally: Thank god. She’s gonna need a heck of a strong dad.

Adam: I thought you just said that she was perfect.

Sally: [ Sighs ] Yeah. Except for the fact that she might inherit all of my worst traits.

Victor: Please sit down, son. Maybe it’s because I’m getting older, okay? But you’re my sons, and I want nothing more than to see the two of you get together. So if you work together at mccall’s, that might happen. Instead of the two of you competing for a woman whose only skill seems to be to pit one brother against the other.

Nick: That is not what’s happening.

Victor: Nicholas, listen to your father. I’ve been around men. That’s exactly what’s happening. You’re too close to see it. She has both of you where she wants you.

Nick: You know, I just… I don’t appreciate being patronized.

Victor: I am not patronizing you, son. I’m trying to help you.

Nick: By asking me to join some business venture with adam, which you know is never gonna work. We will be at each other’s throats constantly. Give me a break, dad. Why can’t you do this? Why can’t you just focus on the fact that you have a new granddaughter coming and quit playing these games?

Victor: Granddaughter? Hi, I’m john and I’m from dallas, texas.

Nick: You know what? That was a mistake. That was not my news to share. It was adam’S. But we just found out this morning at sally’s sonogram appointment.

Victor: Oh, yeah. The three of you. How cozy.

Nick: As I’ve told you many times, we are making this work like adults.

Victor: Adam must be very happy having a girl, along with his two sons.

Nick: Yes. He’s excited. We all are. Sally is gonna be an amazing mother. But there’s something bigger going on here, dad. It is a new baby. Okay? It’s a new life. Now, I know how crazy you are about your grandchildren. So why can’t you just take a step back and wait for this beautiful little girl to get here in a couple months, hold her in your arms, and fall in love with her, and forget everything else? Please.

[ Victor sighs ]

Adam: Is this where I give you the pep talk that you just gave me?

Sally: Yeah, but this is totally different. ‘Cause we’re actually having a little girl, and I was a little girl. And I was a terror.

Adam: Oh, come on.

Sally: I was–

Adam: You were probably adorable.

Sally: I was stubborn. And a pain in the ass.

Adam: Oh, okay. So a lot’s changed since then?

Sally: Exactly. Look, I’m– I’m not– I’m not known for my patience, and I get short-tempered whenever I don’t get enough sleep, and I am super opinionated. And I know that mothers get into it with their daughters. What if she hates me?

Adam: Okay, just– stop. Come on. You sound ridiculous.

Sally: Is anything that I just said not true?

Adam: You can be a pain in the ass, but… we’re talking about traits that our daughter could inherit from her mother. She will have fire. She’ll be smart and sensitive, and she’ll be funny as hell. And she will have all that love that you never got from your parents. Shall I go on?

Sally: Why is all this so crazy-making?

Adam: No, believe me, we– we are just getting started. We’re gonna be second-guessing ourselves for the rest of her life.

Sally: Mmm. And loving every minute of it.

Adam: Yep.

Sally: Until she comes home late. Or what if she dates a guy that we don’t like? Or, what if she decides that, you know–

Adam: Okay. Okay. Why don’t we just save the crazy-making for after she’s born? Okay?

Sally: You’re right.

[ Chuckles ] It’s just…

[ Sighs ] I already love this little girl with my whole heart. You know, loving her is the easy part. But this responsibility is huge.

Adam: It is.

Sally: Like, scary huge.

Adam: It is. But you’re not gonna be alone. Girl dad is right here.

[ Sally chuckles ] When nick mentioned the newman clan and all the smothering that would entail.

Sally: [ Sighs ] Oh, yes. What is not to love? You know? Endless judgment from victor and nikki and victoria on everything from schools to, you know, what diapers I choose, and… you know.

Adam: Don’t freak out about it, okay? I promise that I will fend them off. And so will nick.

Sally: Well, I’m so grateful for that. But I do think that there is one newman who I love to the moon that we should include in all of this, and soon. Connor.

Sharon: I’m sorry about jack coming at you like that. You’re doing everything you can.

Chance: Yeah. It’s part of the job.

Sharon: Well, now I can understand why you’re rethinking your career.

Chance: Yeah. Uh… it’s crazy. I was pretty much ready to walk away from the gcpd. This case has changed that.

Sharon: How?

Chance: There’s certain people in this town, they think they are above the law. Whether it’s trying to get away with something or taking matters into their own hands, there is a complete lack of respect. And I am so sick and tired of being yelled at, and manipulated, and second-guessed. I’m gonna do something about it.

Sharon: Wow, this has really lit a fire under you.

Chance: Yeah. I will do whatever it takes to get the truth. Phyllis and her family deserve that.

Ashley: Look, if you feel beaten, then go. But this is not a good time in– in sri lanka. It’s monsoon season. And it’s almost winter in peru. So I think you should, you know, just stay, for a while, anyway.

Tucker: Why, so you can just keep jerking me around? You know, I’ll take my chances with the monsoons.

Ashley: Okay, what I said the other day about us not riding off into the sunset together?

Tucker: Mm-hmm. And… that you never made me any promises.

Ashley: Right, right. You know, maybe I was a little–

Tucker: A little wrong?

Ashley: I was… hasty.

Tucker: Ah.

Ashley: ‘Cause you pushed buttons that I didn’t even know I had. And I don’t know, maybe whatever this whole thing is, maybe we can make it work.

Tucker: If we’re under the same roof.

Ashley: Yeah.

Tucker: What about that guy you live with? What’s his name? Jack?

Ashley: Yeah, there is jack.

Tucker: Oh, yes. Yeah, there is jack. I see what this is about. This has nothing to do with us.

Ashley: This is not about that.

Tucker: No, this is you wanna use me to stick it to jack.

Ashley: This is not about that. No, it’s not. He’s got enough going on in his life right now. You know what? This is embarrassing. It’s like I have to beg you to move in with me. Why don’t we… just think of this as a grand experiment? We’ll just see if we can make this work, and if we can’t, well, then you fly off to sri lanka and follow your monsoon, and– and… if it does…

Tucker: I just– I don’t know why when you say it like that, it’s such a turn-on. (Dog barking) we love our pets.

Ashley: So? Do you accept my offer?

Tucker: How stupid do you think I am, ashley? I’ve gotta have some assurance that you have real feelings for me and you’re not just screwing with me again. I can’t take it.

Ashley: You broke my heart in ways that I didn’t think it could be broken.

[ Voice breaks ] And when you came back to town, I swore to myself that I would never let you close enough to me again to hurt me.

[ Sobs ] And then when I bought your debt, I thought I would be okay ’cause I would– could– could control you, so. And then when you said that you were leaving, I thought that was great because then maybe my life would be better, but now I’m thinking maybe I was…

Tucker: Hasty?

Ashley: I was wrong. I really don’t want you to go. I mean, you paid off your debt, right? And the playing field is level. So why not play?

Tucker: I’m only gonna play if you admit that you want me as much as I want you.

[ Scoffs ] You can’t do it, can you?

Ashley: Look, I–

Adam: You wanna tell connor? I haven’t even broached the subject with chelsea yet.

Sally: Yeah, but from what I know about your son, I feel like he would love to have a little sister.

Adam: He’s a big fan of yours. But don’t you think it would be confusing for him? Why you’re with nick, you’re not with me? If he has a new baby sister and the child’s mine? And he’s still getting used to having johnny as a biological brother.

Sally: Yeah, but they love each other.

Adam: Yes, they do. But I wanna handle this responsibly. Will you let me talk to chelsea about the best way to go about it?

Sally: Yeah, of course. And then there’s christian.

[ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ] But, I mean, I guess I can talk to nick about that. Or should we all talk about it together?

Adam: The awkward negotiations of a modern family.

Sally: Yeah. Especially when we’re trying so hard to be open and honest and mature. It’s exhausting.

[ Laughs ]

Adam: Well, no matter how complicated it gets, I am certain about one thing: That this little girl is gonna be loved every day of her life.

Jack: I’m not here to make trouble. I forgot my tablet.

Chance: What do you got? What? No. Are you sure?

[ Sighs ] Damn it. Yeah. I– I appreciate the call.

Jack: That phone call have anything to do with diane’s case?

Chance: You know, I’d like to know that as well.

Jack: What does that mean?

Chance: They found jeremy stark. He’s dead.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

[Knock on door]

[Soft dramatic music]

H-holly?

Sorry to keep you waiting.

[Knock on door]

[Door opens]

Come in. Hi.

Hi. I’m sorry to barge in. I know that you’re recovering.

No, it’s good. I-I’m happy for the company.

Um, so I just got this call from valentin. I thought he would be here. And he left me this cryptic message, and I texted him back. I even called him, and it’s radio silence.

Yeah, he doesn’t have a choice.

Sounds like you know where he is.

He’s with laura and curtis and drew. They’ve–they’ve gone to find victor, bring the hostages back.

Sounds risky.

It is. But valentin was determined to go, no matter the risk.

Mommy, what’s that?

This is a very special gift.

But it’s not your birthday.

Even better. It’s a gift that your daddy and I are going to give to each other tonight. But we can’t do that without your help.

What do you need me to do, mommy?

Family is about coming together, celebrating the good times and comforting each other through the bad.

Today is a little bit of both.

Yeah.

But we’re not gonna cry. There’s gonna be no tears. I mean, we heard drew. He’s gonna find liesl. Willow’s gonna have her bone marrow transplant. And before you know it, we’re gonna be celebrating michael and willow’s ten year wedding anniversary.

Hear, hear.

I like the sound of that.

Yeah.

And we’re all gonna be stronger, because this family’s bonds are unbreakable, no matter what life throws at us.

[Door slams]

Whoa.

What was that?

What on earth was monica thinking, planting daffodils all the way up the drive? It looks like the easter bunny threw up out there. Thank god I’m home to put things to rights.

[Sighs] Hello? Isn’t anyone gonna welcome me home?

[Splutters] Welcome home, tracy.

That’s better.

Granny, what a nice surprise.

Oh! And what have I told you about calling me that?

Mother dear, why don’t you give us some notice for once?

Ned, dear, thank you for that heartfelt greeting.

Hello, aunt tracy. Welcome home.

Thank you, michael. That’s much better. Now what is she doing here?

Mmm. Oh. Wow. Not that I’m complaining at all, but what was that for?

How soon can you drop everything and get away with me somewhere?

What do you mean, go away? What are you talking about?

I promise you, all you’re gonna–you need sandals, uh, maybe some sunglasses, bikini, sunblock-

forget the bikini. We’ll–we’ll travel light.

Okay, slow down.

No. I don’t want to. ‘Cause you know what I wanna do? I want us to fly to the islands and soak up the sun. Okay? We’re gonna have a moonlight dinner on the beach and let the world just go right by us. Is that a deal?

I love you so much. But I also know what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. So the answer is… no deal.

[Dramatic music]

All I wanna do is spend some time alone with you.

Mm.

I know we’re both busy. You got “crimson” and the hotel, and I got, you know, a business deal coming in.

[Dramatic music] But I think we–we can carve out a little long weekend and go to the caribbean. I know that-

that willow is a factor. We’ll have our phones. If her condition changes, then, you know, we’ll get on a plane and come back to port charles in a few hours.

Clearly you have thought of everything.

Yes.

And I love you for that.

And I love you.

[Laughs]

So? We both need a change, come on.

Yes, yes.

Right?

Oh, exac-

we need this.

Yes. And I’m not arguing with that, but I want you to be honest with me, sonny.

Yeah.

Okay? Are you suggesting this because you were invited to michael and willow’s wedding and I, very specifically, wasn’t?

I was invited here today, tracy. What about you?

I don’t need an invitation. This is my house. All: It’s monica’s house. Alan gave it to her.

Oh, my god, because he was an idiot!

Mother, we are thrilled to have you here. But as usual, you didn’t let us know that you’d be visiting, which makes me wonder, why now? Are you concerned about elq’s latest share price?

Ugh! If I live to be 100, I hope I never hear those three letters ever again. As a matter of fact, there’s a lot of much more important things happening out there in the world. And while you all were spending time entertaining… aj’s worst mistake-

also known as my mother.

Yes, well, my sympathies. As I was saying, while you all were wasting time, I was risking life and limb to rescue luke’s son, ethan.

Oh, robert, you can’t believe what I’ve just been through. It feels so good to be back. Diane, nice to see you again.

Mm.

Oh. Did I just walk in on some high-stakes legal negotiation?

No, forget about that. I can’t believe I’m looking at you here in the flesh. You know you took quite a risk.

Yes, but it was worth it. There’s nothing that victor can hold over my head anymore. But you already knew that, didn’t you?

[Sighs] Felicia went down to south america, according to mac, on an errand. I never heard any more after that. Now, I’m assuming that the two of you found ethan and set him free.

But it took more than the two of us. We ended up getting some extra help from a most unexpected source.

Tracy, you took on victor cassadine’s goons all by yourself?

It started out as a solo mission, but then I ultimately got a little help.

Okay, hold on. Are you saying you found victor? Where is he? Were you able to stop him?

He, unfortunately, was not at the auction, so, much to my dismay, I did not get to put an end to his miserable life.

Tracy quartermaine’s back in town?

[Chuckles] Well, that explains the creepy feeling I had this morning like there was something crawling over my grave.

Felicia and I were able to locate ethan, but if it weren’t for tracy and her sizable bank account, ethan would still have a bullseye on his back. Fortunately, tracy came through when needed, so there’s no reason to hide anymore. My son is free, and so am I.

Hm.

[Clears throat] Holly, at some point, I have got to ask you, who is your plastic surgeon? Because I see no traces of burns or even a scar. In fact, you look good as new.

Diane, I realize that I-

I have some explaining to do.

No, no, no. Let’s see if I’ve got it. You fooled victor into thinking that you were toast, literally, in that cabin fire. Of course, this was after I had been duped into thinking that you had drugged robert’s drink so that you could steal the ice princess. In other words, for your brilliant plan to succeed, you needed a witness, otherwise known as a stooge. And I was cast in the role.

Valentin texted me, you know, right before he got on the plane.

I’m sure he was thinking about you. I’ m sure you’re wondering why,at such a fraught moment, he was thinking about me. So I’m gonna just let you see for yourself.

Okay, “must be quick, cousin. I don’t know when or…”

[Sighs] “Or if I’ll be coming back. But as the executor of my will–” oh, I–I didn’t realize that you were the executor of his will.

Mm, keep reading. Um, “I trust that you will make sure “charlotte is taken care of and loved. “And I’m cc’ing martin on this too. Gotta go.”

Thank you for showing me that.

Of course. You and valentin are a real thing. That’s nice.

If I wasn’t stuck in this bed, I’d be with him, you know? I’d have his back. But, uh, I can’T. It just feels awful not being able to do anything.

Well, it’s awful when you feel powerless, you know, when you feel like you’re failing someone when they need you.

[Clears throat]

You’re not failing valentin, though. Oh, I guess that’s not what you mean. If you wanna talk about anything, I’m just sitting here. I’m not going anywhere.

It’s okay. Thank you, though. It’s–it’s not my story to tell.

Okay.

[Soft dramatic music]

I’m worried about valentin. I am. But the two of us have learned to trust each other. It’s funny, because I used to lump him into being one of the horrible, homicidal cassadines.

[Chuckles]

It turns out, he’s one of the good ones, and, now I think, because of you.

I don’t know. I think that we’ve changed each other, valentin and I, for the better.

I apologize if you feel used. Th–that wasn’t the intent.

Robert, don’t sugarcoat it. Because you’re right.

Mm.

We needed an unimpeachable witness, or victor would never have believed that I’d stolen the necklace. All I can say in my defense is that it bought me time to find my son. And it kept the real necklace out of victor’s hands.

Until now. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m thrilled that your son is safe and that that fire was as fake as the necklace you tried to pass off as the real thing. But your brilliant plan didn’t prevent victor from getting his hands on the actual ice princess or keep him from taking all those hostages. Word of advice: Next time–hm. Mm. Trust me a little more and use me a little less. Excuse me.

Ah-

diane, let me walk you to the car.

Oh, that’s special. No, I can find my car by myself. Thank you.

Is it my imagination, or did she take that rather personally?

I didn’t-

I didn’t plan this getaway because I–I feel guilty. If anything, I wanna say thank you.

Thank you?

Yeah.

For–for what?

For urging me to go to the wedding when you can’T.

Well, don’t give me too much credit.

I know… how important it is for you to have a–a daughter, and–and how much you want to go to the wedding. But instead of being resentful and bitter, you put willow first. You’re only thinking about her.

Willow’s a person. But you don’t get it. You don’t care. The only thing you care about is that she’s yours. No wonder willow doesn’t wanna be with you or around you. And instead of you facing that fact, you wanna blame it all on me.

I own my part. But it’s your fault that I don’t have a chance to earn willow’s forgiveness because we’re running out of time. My daughter’s dying,

and it is your fault, carly. Don’t–don’t make me out as a saint, sonny. Because I’m not. I’m far from it. I am glad that michael put his anger aside, at least for the day, for willow. You know, there’s no promise for tomorrow for any of us. But I truly want this to be the happiest day of my daughter’s life.

It will be.

So the way it works, wiley, is that I give one ring to daddy, and he gives one to me. And it means that we promise to love each other until…

until when, mommy?

[Soft dramatic music]

Until forever.

But like I was saying before, we’re going to need your help. So before uncle drew walks me down the aisle to stand beside your daddy, the flower girls, avery and donna, will go first. And then you will follow them, carrying the rings. Do you think you can do that?

Whatever you need, mom.

Oh, I knew I could count on you.

Do I have to wear a tie?

You get to wear one. And that’s because you’re a big boy now and mommy’s counting on you.

Until forever?

Yes, sweetheart. Until forever.

So, um, tracy, you haven’t told us, about how long might this little visit be lasting?

Don’t let us keep you, mother. We know what kind of whirlwind life you lead. Here today, gone tomorrow.

What have I walked in on?

Um… well, there’s actually gonna be a wedding tonight.

A family wedding? I wasn’t invited? Who’s getting married?

Willow and me.

[Laughs] Because the first one was such a rousing success?

Well, I mean, the first time we got married, we weren’t in love. We were just trying to, uh, protect wiley from–from nelle. So…

well, not my fault that monica left that out of the christmas letter.

Yeah, quite, but the point is, now we are very much so in love-

actually, we just had our second child together-

so it’s time to make things official.

Well, I can’t say that I’m surprised, because serial marriage seems to run in your family. I can’t count the number of times carly said “I do” to sonny and then got divorced because… she didn’T.

Well, michael and willow are getting married for all the right reasons. Can you say that about your, what, six trips down the aisle?

[Laughs]

Ooh! That sounds like a fun parlor game. Counting my mother’s former husbands. Well, let’s start with her first husband, my father, lord larry ashton.

Okay, well, then, um, dillon’s father was paul hornsby.

Uh-huh, and you married mitch williams even though you caught him in bed with susan moore, who would later become jason’s biological mother after her affair with uncle alan. That’s three, if anyone’s keeping track.

Enough! All right. I admit that my marital track record is not exactly spotless.

Well, that’s putting it mildly.

Okay, as fun as this has been, I need to go tell the bride-to-be about one more shock.

[Soft dramatic music]

What did carly mean, one more shock?

What else have you been keeping from me?

you, I’m-

I’m really worried about them, especially that little baby. He shouldn’t be there. He should be with his mother, no matter what anyone thinks about her.

Hopefully, spencer has access to him. Turns out, he’s quite devoted to that little boy.

[Cell phone chimes] Ooh, okay. It’s my friend diane. It sounds kind of urgent.

Sure, yeah. Oh, okay. No, no, fine. Thank you for the visit.

Yeah, uh, she’s usually very unflappable, so I can’t imagine what this is about, but duty calls. I’ll let you know if I hear from valentin.

Thank you.

You be well. Yeah.

[Somber music]

A lot’s happened in port charles since you were here last.

So I can see. What exactly did I walk in on?

Well, we were deconstructing a dinner we had last night.

A working dinner?

Mm, something like that.

At the very least, I hope it was… productive.

Well, yes… and no.

Oh. The da and the defense attorney have learned to coexist. How very modern and enlightened of you.

Well, without cooperation, the law is… just words.

I don’t know what that means.

There’s no spirit behind it. There’s no soul. There’S…

no heart.

Hello!

Grandma!

Oh-ho-ho! Come here! Oh, let me look at you. You’re so handsome.

Somebody’s gonna be the ring bearer tonight.

[Gasps] Is that somebody you?

I told him he was a big boy now, and that comes with responsibilities.

Oh, it doe-

you better go practice!

[Laughs] Slow down.

I’m okay if he runs.

[Laughs]

I was so afraid this day would never happen, and now that it’s here, I just-

I’m gonna put all my worries aside. I’m gonna soak up every moment.

I hope tonight is everything you want it to be… even if…

even if what? Carly.

Well, for starters, tracy’s here.

Well? Anybody gonna tell me what I missed?

Okay, um… well, willow is sick.

Oh, michael. All brides get last-minute jitters.

No, willow has… she has stage iv leukemia.

Leukemia?

Yeah. She was diagnosed shortly after she found out she was pregnant.

Why didn’t you tell me? And you–we had phone conversations! It didn’t occur to you to mention this?

Mother, don’t blame brook lynn. Michael and willow wanted to keep this news private, first, and then, by the time they were ready to share the news, you were unreachable. Clearly, you were on your way to ethan.

What can I do?

[Soft melancholy music]

I’m sure willow’s wedding’s gonna be nice, especially since the quartermaines are gonna all out ’cause they’re letting me in.

Yeah, the quartermaines have some nerve. They lord that over you. You know, they managed to keep their hands clean this time, but it doesn’t mean that quartermaines don’t play dirty, especially if their precious elq is at stake. You know, drew and car-

don’t stop. What about drew and carly?

[Dramatic music]

Hi.

Hi!

Okay, what’s wrong?

What–what do you mean, what’s wrong? I just wanted to see you and catch up.

Oh, okay. I was worried that… you were upset with me because I canceled our last dinner plan.

Must be something about me and dinner plans.

What’s that supposed to mean? What’s wrong with you? Why are you drinking so early?

Okay, if you must know, it’s about robert scorpio.

Oh, the da. You were supposed to have a date with the da.

Dinner, just dinner.

And that’s your story, and you’re sticking with it.

Okay, it was kind of a date, but then he ended up having car trouble, which led to him receiving an extraordinary dry cleaning bill from me.

Sounds like it potentially could’ve been a lot of fun.

[Snorts] Okay, we kissed.

[Gasps]

And we might have kissed again today, had we not been interrupted by–wait for it-

his ex-wife, holly sutton.

[Dramatic music]

You may have saved your son, but there’s a lot of good people still in harm’s way out there.

Ah, yes. Felicia told me about anna. How’s she doing?

She’s lucky to be alive, no thanks to victor.

What about laura?

Kind of dropped off the grid, along with curtis and drew. She wants to corner victor and rescue the hostages.

I always knew victor was dangerous, but it seems like he’s spinning out of control.

That’s because he’s getting close to implementing his plan, whatever it is.

I know you wish you could be with laura and the rest.

I feel so bloody useless, chained to this desk. I can’t help anyone.

Maybe you can. Do you know, can anna have visitors?

Sure. Why?

Well, firstly, I need to apologize to her, and… you both need to hear what ethan told me.

[Quiet dramatic music]

Thank you, tracy, but we’re already doing everything that we can.

Problem is, we don’t know if liesl obrecht will be found in time.

What does that frau from hell have to do with this?

She’s a donor match for willow.

They were all set for a bone marrow transplant when obrecht disappeared from the nurses’ ball.

And the police think that victor kidnapped her.

But we know we’re not losing hope, right? Willow and I are getting married tonight, and it’s gonna be everything she wants. Now, if you’ll excuse me…

michael, I meant what I said. I have contacts everywhere. If there is anything you need… you’ll be surprised what I can accomplish when-

when I put my mind to it.

Well, thank you.

[Soft music]

We ll, it’s no secrethow I feel about carly and her holier-than-thou attitude, and drew-

he’s just an enabler. And, you know, I’ve been thinking about what happened the other night a lot, about how carly had to be the one to go to willow and tell her that my aunt liesl was missing.

Yeah, but she told willow because she didn’t want willow to hear from somebody else.

Baby, are you on my side?

Yeah, I’m on your side. Is that the same night that you asked me to do what I could to find liesl, that I let you down?

No, no, you did everything that I asked you to do, and more.

Then you gotta let go of this resentment you feel towards carly and drew, ’cause it doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is us.

[Moody music]

I know tracy can be a handful…

mm-hmm.

Okay, more like two hands full, but she loves her family, and after tonight, that makes me her family too.

Helpbut see the good in people, even tracy.

She’s welcome to be there.

All I want is to walk down the aisle on drew’s arm and slip one of-

what?

[Melancholy music]

[Sighs]

What is it?

[Doorknob turns]

Hey.

So, uh… you tell willow the news?

What news?

Drew’s not gonna be able to walk you down the aisle.

Uh, what’s wrong? It’s not like drew to back out at the last minute.

No, no, he has the location on victor cassadine. And we know, wherever victor is, liesl is there too.

Yeah, drew’s gone to find liesl and bring her back.

Somebody needs to tell maxie that drew’s not gonna be at the wedding. You know how sensitive she is about her seating chart. Unless you, tracy, might want to fill the empty seat.

Or maybe mother has other plans.

No, I wouldn’t miss it. My wedding gift is gonna be my contact list of specialists from manhattan to mumbai.

I know you mean well, but if you really wanna help, you’ll make this day all about michael and willow.

[Moody music]

Are you implying that I would try to steal the spotlight?

You? Never.

Grandmother, let me-

let me show you to your guest room, huh?

My guest room? I have my own room.

Uh, actually, that’s drew’s room now.

Why would he take my room?

Because it’s got the best view.

That’s why it’s my room.

Okay, you know, you can share my room, okay? And that would be great because we have a lot to catch up on. Go ahead.

It is so like monica to give my room to yet another of alan’s illegitimate offspring. What is wrong with her? Why doesn’t she just pay them off and show them the door? Why does she ask them to move in?

Tracy…

no, don’T. Do not give me another lecture on “this is monica’s house.”

I’m not trying to lecture you. I’m trying to thank you.

I don’t want drew risking his life for me. No, no, somebody has to stop him.

Hey, no, no, we’re not gonna stop drew. He would be so proud to walk you down the aisle, but he’s doing what he thinks is right, for you and for all of us.

[Soft music]

You are right. Nothing matters more to me than what we have.

All right, don’t tempt me now.

Oh, would I do that?

Probably, but if I don’t go, then I’m not-

yeah, you’re gonna be late. You’re gonna be late for the wedding, and we don’t want that, because who’s gonna be blamed for that? This guy. I know. Let it go.

As long as I don’t have to let you go.

[Soft guitar music]

Never.

Holly’s back in town, and more beautiful than ever.

Really? What happened to the…

oh, you mean the third-degree burns? Well, turns out, that was all part of an elaborate scam to fool victor. Yeah, robert and his ex work seamlessly together. They’re quite the pair.

They have not been together for years.

[Scoffs] You could’ve fooled me.

I’m sure that robert was happy to see holly, but it was your dry cleaning bill he was picking up.

Yeah, that’s just guilt. Look, nice try, my friend, but the more I think about it, the more I realize holly came back into town just in the nick of time, just before I risked having a second date.

[Knocking at door]

Yeah. I was just thinking about you. I need you to use your connections to track a plane without anyone knowing. Can you do that?

Before I do that, there’s someone who I think you should talk with.

[Suspenseful music]

It’s good to see you, holly.

That’s incredibly generous, given… what I put you through.

No, it’s okay. I mean, victor put you in a very difficult situation.

Yes, but I could’ve… I could’ve resisted, and instead, I helped him frame you for a murder that never happened. I put on a wig and your overcoat, and I shot lucy with your gun.

Hmm. It’s not your best moment, is it? But at least you used a rubber bullet.

Yes.

Right. Then you knew she wouldn’t be hurt or die.

Why are you making excuses for me?

Because I’ve been backed into corners before and forced to do things I didn’t wanna do to help someone that I love. I mean, that’s why it’s called a devil’s bargain. You’re gonna suffer either way, right?

Thank you for understanding.

How is ethan?

[Sighs] Alive.

[Both laugh]

In one piece.

Good.

And on his way to australia.

Wonderful.

When victor faked my death in monte carlo and killed my sister-

my half-sister, paloma-

god knows where he was holding me, and I kept waiting for him to interrogate me, but he never did. He didn’t want me to talk. Victor… just wanted me.

To get close to robert.

Yeah. And then, one day… he had ethan, and I’ve no idea where he was holding ethan. Could’ve been in the cell next to me, or–or in a compound on the other side of the world. But victor made one thing very clear: That my son would only live if I agreed to cooperate.

So you played along until you could figure out your next maneuver, right?

At your expense.

Right. So, yes, it happened to me, so I get to choose who I blame for that, and I don’t blame you. And you really should stop blaming yourself.

[Laughs softly] Again, thank you.

Right, now that we got that out of the way, we can have a strategy session. I was expecting to see valentin here, but–well, since he’s been beside your bed through this whole entire ordeal…

he’s not here.

[Sighs] He’s with laura and curtis and drew. They’ve–they’ve gone to find victor.

[Dramatic music] What?

When ethan was victor’s captive, he persuaded his guards to play with cards with him. Ethan’s very good at cards. He can make any hand come out exactly the way he wants, and he let his marks win just enough that they’d keep playing… and talking, which is how he learned that victor plans to revive a technology that the cassadines developed in the ’80s.

You a quitter?

You know… maybe.

You a quitter? Why would you give up so easily?

There’s nothing to give up! I’m just gonna go back to doing what I do better than anybody else, and that’s besting robert in court, and he can have holly sutton if he wants.

What if he wants you?

Yeah.

You know, life is too short to stand on ceremony. If you feel something, say something.

You okay, hon?

It’s a mixed blessing, having my mother home with us.

[Laughs] Yes. My feelings are also mixed. It’s the blessing part I’m not exactly clear on.

[Chuckles]

[Soft music]

Gratitude is not your best event, but have at it.

Look, I turned to you when chase was really in trouble, and you came through. I mean, if you hadn’t pulled all the right strings, chase might never have gotten his badge back. I owe you.

You’re right, and don’t you forget it, because I won’T. Bag, please.

[Laughs] Mm. I–no! You’re–you are actually going to be late for this wedding.

All right, listen.

Hold that thought, okay? Till I get back.

I want–I want pictures, lots of them.

And, uh, wedding cake. You know why? ‘Cause it’s good luck.

Well, I don’t need any luck ’cause I have you.

[Tense music]

Martin, it’s nina. W–I just need to know, have you had the conversation with the SEC about carly and drew?

Carly, since drew can’t be here, I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have give me away than you.

[Soft music]

Me?

Yeah.

Are you sure?

I–I’d be honored. Are you okay with it?

Me? [Laughs] What do you think?

Okay, well, I mean, if I’m gonna play my part, I’d better go get changed.

Hey. Your mother is putting up a brave front, but if something happens and drew doesn’t come back…

hey, come on. Don’t lose hope. Hey, drew will make it back with liesl, okay?

Okay. But it could be doubly heartbreaking for carly if it all goes wrong. She’s so in love with drew.

No, martin, I haven’t changed my mind.

[Dramatic music] Just the opposite. I want you to go all out and expose drew and carly for engaging in insider trading.

Just make sure to keep my name out of it.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Come on, Wendy. Pick up. Damn it.

Hey G. Hey. Something wrong. Uh, yeah, yeah. Something is wrong. Windy is. Rejecting my calls. She’s obviously still upset that I proposed to you. Really? But didn’t you hear me Word drugged like everyone else who ate those tainted biscuits. Apparently she did not hear that she, uh, no, she left town right after she ran into us left town.

Where’d she go? Well, where do you think to see Trip?

Where Johnny? Yeah. He called four more times, so I blocked him. Yeah, I, I don’t get it. If he’s marrying Chanel, why don’t he keep calling you? Oh, probably to alleviate his guilt by groveling, but forget it. I’m not giving him the satisfaction anyway. I don’t wanna deal with him right now, especially since you and I are technically on our first date.

Hmm. And how’s it going so far in your estimation? That is well, considering you made a scrumptious dinner and then insisted on doing all of the dishes. I’d say it’s going great. I can’t wait to see what you have planned next.

Thank God he showed up. When you did that form for you would be missing in your lobe. Or worse. Yeah, once I got your texts, I got here as fast as I could. Excuse me. But who are you? Sorry, mom. This is Harris Michaels. He’s been helping Aunt Hope look for you and Papa. Oh. I, I’m Hope Sister-in-law, Kayla Johnson.

Nice to meet you. I’m glad you’re safe. Well, thank you. But my husband isn’t, in fact, he’s being held captive in a villa. Not for you’ll never hear. Believe who kidnapped. My parents. Actually, I know who it was. The only way. I could be the man I’m meant to be.

Just to get rid of you. No,

no. Damnit, you’ll listen to Pete Brady and, yes, yes, that, that is your name and that is who you are. Your full Brady. The best man. I know. You’re the love of my life. And it’ll never, ever change. Just like I know that your love for me is never gonna change. And no matter what you say or what you do, you’ll never convince me otherwise.

Because you know what? There is one fundamental truth between I’m trying you and Megan, that is the. We love each other to the very depths of our soul.

So then what happens here today? Nothing will ever extinguish that love. Not anything. Ralph couldn’t do it. Nobody else could either. So many people both. Helped tried to keep us apart, but they couldn’t do it. They couldn’t.

Hey, so many things, so, So many obstacles. So many obstacles have stood in our way. And you know what? We’ve overcome them. Every single one of them. So you could stand there with that gun pointing at me with your finger on the trigger, telling yourself that you’re better off without me. But you know what?

I’ll never ever really believe it. Cause what’s what’s talking at you? It’s your heart. It’s the truest, purest part of you and it knows the only place you belong is with me

with your fancy face. I’m your fancy face Baseball.

Just told me I should write fight songs. That’s what we do half the time. We’ve been together forever through thicker and dinner, like the day that we promised.

The best things life was a of friendships and traveling. Why make me much better ever?

It’s unruly. Sometimes it comes at.

And the,

still love you.

Hi, love you.

The one true love of my life. I love you. Oh, William.

No.

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

So is Beau who’s keeping Stephanie’s parents hostage? How do you know that? Well, when I checked out Victor Kiki’s Childhood Home, that’s, that’s when I ran into him. And you didn’t say anything. I, I know I should have spoken up earlier. I’m sorry, but I You didn’t wanna lose hope.

See, you just kept your mouth shut even though my parents’ lives were in danger. Oh. Mentioned that somebody came by the place, but he. Didn’t say it was you? No, I asked him where you were. He denied it and I didn’t really believe him, but I, you know, I just told myself there’s no way he could hurt his own sister, and if he had hurt her, then what?

I, I was wrong. Okay. I was wrong for not telling everybody I. I’m sorry. That’s why I finally came clean to Hope. Did you tell her about Bo? Not exactly. I sent her to the Villa, but I did not tell her that Bo was alive. Oh, she obviously knows now. You can’t imagine what she’s going through.

Fuck is he? He had his phone, his lemonade, ambulance, ambulance. Hey, he’s gonna help mom. I’m so sorry. I’m gonna, he had the gun pointed at you and I didn’t, I didn’t know what to do. I, I, I, I couldn’t tell me. I didn’t do, it’s gonna hurt. How do you know that Michael said he was brainwashed, that he wasn’t the man?

You don’t understand. I got screwed to him. I came back to.

Hear my heart. I shot him.

Look, I’m sorry to hear that Wendy left town, but. If she won’t take your calls, then maybe you should just give her some space and, and then when she comes back to town, you can explain what happened. What if she and Trip are together? By then, I told you the guys got a thing for her. Oh, right. Well, what else can you do?

I was gonna go to Seattle tonight, but my flight got canceled.

Oh, great. Now my texts aren’t even going through. She must have blocked my number. Damn it. These. The drug biscuits really screwed everything up, huh? Yeah. You can blame Sloan Peterson for that. Please tell me the police were able to prove it was her. Not yet. God, that is so obvious. She tried to destroy my business and she may have succeeded.

I’m really sorry you’re going through all this tuchi. Well, well, if it is in Salem’s newly engaged couple, so tell me when’s the big day?

Uh, well, to be honest, I haven’t really thought of anything else, uh, for our date yet. Oh, that’s fine. I mean, I showed up out of the blue. No, no, that doesn’t mean I’m giving enough though. Okay. I mean, not a few traveled, you know, like 2000 miles to get here at least I can do is bring my A game, right? So, We were going out.

Okay. We can go to a club or something. Um, well, you’ve seen my dance moves, right, son? Are you really willing to subject yourself to that level of public humiliation? Yeah, that’s good point. Yeah. Uh oh. We can go to the pier. They have a, they have a Ferris wall there, you can see like half the west side of Seattle in the waterfront.

And, uh, you don’t like Ferris wheels? Well, it’s. Okay. It’s not that I don’t like them, it’s just that I have a strange phobia of getting stuck in them. Come on. That’s, that’s not gonna happen. All, it’ll be fun. We can just stay home. No, no, no, no, no, no. You, you did not come all this way to hang out in this apartment.

Okay, so we are going to ride the Ferris wheel, which will not get stuck for promise. And then we walk around the pier. There’s some cotton candy. I am going to show you a good time, even if it kills me.

Okay, let’s go. I’ll want you back. Good call.

What? Well, maybe seeing hope will shake off my brother’s brainwashing. You don’t think you’d hurt, or do you? No, I mean, he, he couldn’t bring himself to hurt your father, so I can’t imagine he would hurt. Hope. Have you heard from her yet? No. But her son Sean arrived in town. He went straight there. So I’m hoping he’ll be in touch soon.

Well, you know what? We can’t wait. Steve is in trouble and we need to go rescue him. Okay. Um, if hope’s there, I’m sure I’m the last person she wants to see. So in the meantime, I’ll return banks to local authorities. You can’t. He bribed them last time. That’s how he got free. Then I’ll contact the ISA and I’ll return these as well.

I just, I, I wanna say that I regret not telling you the truth sooner. I’m really sorry.

I just didn’t wanna lose hope. Blood pressure is dropping. We need to stabilize him. Hang on. Fighting. I can’t. I’m sorry man. You cannot be here. I’m not leaving. Not shall I know he’s okay. It’s fine, but stand. Get me the puddles.

Uh, thanks.

How you doing, buddy? I honestly don’t really know how to answer that. I’m just, man, I’m trying to process the fact that, that my dad’s alive and thanks to me, I might lose him all over again. Hey, buddy, listen. What was a fighter after everything he’s been through, do you think one little bullet is gonna take him down?

I don’t think so.

Yeah, you’re right. You’re right. He’s gonna be okay. Like he’s gotta be.

Oh God. Go on. Ready?

Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What are you doing? Wait, why are you stopping? Wait, what are you doing? What? I’m so sorry. Here. Stop. He’s gone. Yeah. Oh please, no.

Oh, come on. Don’t be stingy. Give lady whistleblower all the juicy deeds. Share your premarital bliss with all of Leo. I don’t know what you heard, but hey honey, I heard all the tea. My spies. I mean, sources told me that Johnny got down on his knee in this very spot and asked for your hand in marriage again, and you said yes again.

Look, that’s true, but it’s okay. Chanel girl, let’s see the ring. Come on. Show that bad boy off. Okay. I can’t, there isn’t one. What? No ring. You cheaps skate. Surely a damira can afford to give a lady a proper rock. Leo, I am going to say this one time in hopes that you’ll stop talking and go away. Huh? Chanel and I.

Are not getting married. Wow. Okay. You don’t have to yell, you know? What is it with you two anyway, off again on again. Married, divorced, doing the dirty with the other one’s. Twin sister, few millennials, you’re so hard to keep track of. There’s nothing to keep track of. Johnny isn’t interested in me anymore.

Oh. Is there someone else? Oh, come on. I won’t print it. I’m just curious. Johnny, if you don’t tell him, he’s just gonna make something up. Fine. I’m dating Wendy, shit. Oh wow. That must have been awkward. How did she handle the news of your engagement?

Okay. When you said you’d show me a good time, even if it killed you, I didn’t think you were being literal. Yeah, me neither. I did try to tell you that Ferris wheel was a bad idea. Well, at least we didn’t get stuck that No. That would’ve required us to actually get on a ride. Yeah. Yeah. I wonder if I’m the only clutch to manage to trip in fall getting into one of those, uh, Ferris wheel pods or whatever they’re called.

Right. Operator allow so hard and not as hard as you did. I just, I couldn’t help him. Ok. The way you missed. That little step in the face that you made when you fell. Hey, I injured myself. Oh, come on. It’s just a bruise. Yeah, just like my ego. Okay, well look on the bright side. You said you’d showed me a good time and I had one, even if it was at your expense.

Oh no. Where’s Papa? This is where I left him. Uncle Beau wasn’t upstairs. Do you think he took him somewhere else? Or maybe Hope got through to him and he let your father deal.

I think he escaped. That sounds about right. Well, Papa did get free. Where do you think he went? So Michael’s knew Beau was alive and he said nothing. Son of a bitch. Yeah. He said that he didn’t tell my mom because he thought that he was gonna lose her. And, uh, I guess his, his conscience got the better of him, and so he sent her to the villa.

And, uh, once he relayed the story to me, I raced over there too, and I, I didn’t, I didn’t know what to expect. I, and I get there and my dad just got a gun and it’s, and it’s pointed at my mom. And it’s like all I could think of how was how Michael said that Megan had turned him and that he had, that he had probably shot and killed Kate.

And I just, I just knew that there was no damn way I was gonna let that happen to my mom too.

I understand. It looked the same way to me. Yeah, but you were both wrong. Like my mom had gotten through to him. He was the same, same man that we once remembered. And I mean, he would call her fancy face. Look, which means it, it means that I shot my dad for no reason.

Look, and if he look at he dies. Oh my God. I.

Please must be something more you could do. We tried everything. I’m three. Too late. I already lost you once. I can’t lose you again, please. Three easy. Four. Oh. There we please. Come on please. Wake up. Open your damn eyes. Would you open them please? Oh. Oh, wake up. I understand that this is difficult. No, we don’t understand.

We were apart for so long and I just got him back and we didn’t get any time together.

So let’s get the, how it ends.

I’m very sorry. There’s anything we can do. He’s calm dead.

Fancy face.

Thank God. Welcome back. Welcome, welcome back, Brady. I missed you. I missed you.

Wendy was obviously upset. Not that it’s any of your damn business, but I hope to smooth things over by explaining to her that I was high on biscuits. Biscuits, biscuits. What are these biscuits everybody keeps talking about? Are they some new designer drug? Am I missing out? He’s talking about my breakfast biscuits.

Oh, so you are the hookup. My. When did our little Pat TCA break? Bad? Okay. I didn’t break bad Leo. That would be Sloane Peterson because of her half the town was on a powerful hallucinogenic. So if you want something juicy for your column, you should just go ahead and write that. Okay? I’m afraid I can’t.

Why not? Well, thanks to Chanel and her previous hot tip, Sloane is threatening to sue me for libel. So unless you have concrete proof,

you don’t. I can tell by your expression. Right. I don’t. Well then I’ll be running my original story. Johnny and Chanel Salem’s answer to the bene reunion and poor Wendy Shin, the jilted arod left out in the cold. The story practically writes itself. We’re not even together. We only did this because of the damn drugs.

Or is it possible that the drugs brought your true feelings to the surface?

Food for thought.

I come bearing a peace offering. Gross peace. Yeah. Maybe I should have said a Pease offering. Wow, man. You are Roll today for your bruise obviously fell with the swelling here. It looked like your shirt. I, I appreciate that, but it’s fine. No. It’s sore and swollen.

It’s pretty cold. Yeah, that’s the point, which I’m sure you know, Dr. Johnson, you just enjoy torture me, don’t you? I have been told I have a slight Sadomasochistic Street. Wow. Okay. Well, what have I gotten myself into? Seriously? Do you want me to stop? No, no, actually, it’s starting to feel pretty good. I’m glad.

We know what my kid make it feel even better. What this

look, I’m sorry. Hey, come on. There’s nothing to be sorry for. Listen. Uh. I hate to leave you like this, but I need to get over to the Titan lab and make sure Kayla’s all right. Yeah. No, no, no, no. You should go. Yeah, you should go. I’m gonna stay here with my mom and, uh, we’ll, uh, I’ll call you. I’ll call you if something changes.

Okay. Good? Yeah. Oh, do you have my, you have my phone? Oh, yeah, it’s right here,

Stephanie. Hey, Stephanie. Papa, I was just calling Sean to see if he knew where you were. Uh, we’re at a local hospital. Sorry, the connection’s bad. Did you say you’re at a hospital? Yeah. Are you okay? Yeah, I’m fine. So is Sean.

It’s your Uncle Bo.

I’m so, so sorry. For what? Just I had a gun on you. I was gonna kill you. No, you weren’t. I didn’t believe that for a second. No matter what, Ralph did you, I knew that you would never hurt me, and he really messed with my head. Tried to make me forget who I am. Forget our love. You may have messed with your head, but you could never touch what’s in your heart.

Nothing can erase our love. Not Ralph, as it turns out, not even dead. I can’t believe you’re really here, I believe. I thought I’d lost you forever. Sorry for what you went through.

What’d he say? Let’s. Let’s never be apart again.

Listen about what Leo said about the drugs, somehow revealing our true feelings for each other. Yeah. Please, Leo. Lives for the drama. And besides, I, I already know that Wendy’s who you wanna be with. Well, the question is, does Wendy wanna be with me? She, uh, she probably hates me right now. Maybe I can help with that.

Well, don’t, don’t tell me you wanna broadcast this story too, only to the person who matters. You already tried calling, so now it’s my turn. But Lee already tried that. Okay. Didn’t work. If Wendy’s not gonna listen to her own brother, I doubt she’s gonna listen to her ex-roommate, especially if she thinks you stole me from her.

You’re probably even blocked too. Okay? Which is why I am going to call Tripp. He and I are friends, so he should answer, and then I can explain to him what really happened.

This could be about Kayla. Oh, of course. Take it. It’s Chanel. Chanel, why would she be calling? I don’t know, but after the way she screwed you over, I might as well. Here’s what she have to say. Huh? I hear congratulations are an order trip. You have to let me explain what Wendy saw. Wasn’t real, not not real.

Okay. So, so what are you saying That she, uh, she imagined it, that she was hallucinating? No, she wasn’t. But Johnny and I were, what, what are you talking about? When Johnny proposed and I accepted, we weren’t in our right minds. We were high on biscuits. Okay. Okay, now I’m really confused. And then we’re way past April Fools.

So, hey, look, I know it sounds crazy, but I’m telling you the truth. Johnny and I accidentally ingested a powerful hallucinogenic, so did a lot of other people in Salem. It is a long story, but Johnny and I aren’t engaged. He wants to be with Wendy,

Steve. Oh my God. Tell how good it’s to see you, baby. Are you all right? I’m fine. She definitely is. I took her to get checked out after everything that happened, but she insisted on coming here before she even got out of that hospital gown. Stephanie said that Bo’s been shot. Yeah, I’m wait near from the doctors.

Hope is in there with him now. Well, what happened? Who shot him? It was me. I, uh, I made a terrible mistake

almost there. Hold on. Stop. Stop. Oh, okay.

You did all this? Mm-hmm. Well, you know, when we’re together, anything is possible. Hey, I was thinking that what if we buy this place from Victor? Huh? Then we would have a place to get away to you and I to be alone. Maybe have some. Romantic time. What do you say? What do I say?

I think it sounds pretty spectacular. Brady.

And speaking of Victor, do you think we should call him? Huh And the rest of the family tell me Good news. The good news, the Spectacular Miracle visit, at least our children. Yeah, yeah, I, we should do that. It’s like right on the top of my list of things to do.

But right now, this is some US time and we deserve it cuz we were torn apart a long time ago. But despite the odds, we found our way back to each other. Don’t we always. Now we get to spend the rest of our lives together, ready the way it was meant to be. You know? To our future. To our future.

Let’s move to the fireplace. Love you. I wanna share life with,

oh my gosh.

I never thought I could be this happy.

What? I just love you so much.

I love you. You are my heart and always will be.

Oh, I think so. Perfect. It feels like a train.

Oh, Mrs. Brady,

welcome back. You look familiar. Do I know you? Perhaps you saw me earlier. I’m Angela. I work here in the trauma unit. It’s right, I’m the hospital.

Did they already take? No, they took him to surgery.

Wait, wait. They took surgery after you pass out? His heart started beating again. I’ve never seen anything like it. I mean, it was a true miracle. Oh my God. Thank you. Thank you. God, thank you. No, no wait. He’s not outta the woods yet. But it’s clear he is not giving up. And I suspect you may be the reason. Yes.

So you were drugged? Yes. Yes. That’s what I’ve been trying to explain to you and, and it really. It mess with my head. You know, I was lost in, in my memories of my wedding to Chanel. Uh, but, but now that I’m sober, I, I, I swear to you that you are the only woman I want.

That sounds so crazy. It must be true. See, believe me, actually I do. Oh, thank God. You have no idea how happy that makes me. Now things can just go back to the way they were.

Hey grandma. Oh, thank you sweetie. Yeah. Where’s Chad? He, uh, he went back to the hotel to get some of my clothes. I figured he might wanna change into something fresh. Thank you. Any word on Uncle Beau? Not yet. What is taking so long? Sean? I’m, I’m sure they’re doing their best. Well, I can’t just sit here and do nothing, so I’m gonna go get some answers.

Hey, come on. How’s dad? I almost lost him again. But he’s in surgery. Yeah.

Hey, hey. Oh, thank God. You’re all right. Yeah. Thank God. Same for you. Sean told me that you got through to my brother. I did, but he was fighting and you know how stubborn he is. I do. So I just kept talking to him and talking to him until, until they finally go through and call me a fancy face. And you and dad would be together at this very moment if it wasn’t for me.

Hey, hey. Uh, how to cold? Thanks. Well, he’s uh, he’s out of our hair. He is in ISA custody. Did you guys find Steve? Yeah, we did. Everyone’s at the hospital. The hospital. Why? What happened, Sean? It was an accident. You had a split second to make a decision and you did what you thought was best. Kayla’s right buddy.

So listen, why don’t we all focus our energy on Bo, send him some prayers so he knows we’re here for him. Yeah.

Doctor, how is he houseful? Mr. Brady made it through surgery and his vitals have stabilized. Thank God.

Hey, I see there is something you should know first. His injury caused a lot of damage to his system and as a result, There is a new complication. What? What complication? Tell me what is it? I’m afraid Mr. Brady has lapsed into a coma.

Ridge: If we’d known you were coming, we could’ve thrown you a party with big “ridge jr.” Banner.

Brooke: Oh-ho!

Rj: That– that would’ve been fun, but honestly I’m– I’m happy to spend some alone time with my parents and my sister, my favorite people on the planet, but seriously I– I really did miss you guys.

Brooke: We missed you, rj.

Ridge: Life is just not the same without you here.

Brooke: The baby of the family. Always knew you’d come back home.

Hope: Now, we just need to find a way to convince rj to stay forever.

Brooke: Yes!

Thomas: Yes, my half-brother is back in town.

Taylor: Yeah, I bet brooke is so excited.

Thomas: Yeah, dad too.

Taylor: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Yeah, I bet he’s really excited. I’m sure he’s feeling really proud right now, having all of his kids in one city. You, steffy and his only child with brooke. How do you feel about it, mom?

Finn: Wow, did I win the lottery or what?

[ Steffy laughing ] Every morning, I get to wake up and see your beautiful face. This incredible force of a woman just lying there, snoring her head off.

Steffy: Stop that! I do not snore!

Finn: When I first heard it, I thought it was the sea lions on the beach.

Steffy: What?

Finn: Or like a wild parrot.

Steffy: Stop. No, I don’T.

Finn: No, in fact it was my gorgeous wife just laying there, drooling just a little bit.

Steffy: Whatever, you know you love it.

Finn: I do. I love everything. I love everything about you.

Steffy: Don’t even.

[ Finn grunts ] Do not talk to me about snoring.

Finn: Oh, does the truth hurt?

Steffy: Yeah. You know, especially after a night of one of your overnight shifts and you come in like a 90 year old man, sounds like you have a chainsaw, just like cutting down trees–

Finn: Yeah, okay.

[ Steffy imitating a chainsaw ] Okay yeah that’s, um, that is accurate, that’s a good one. Okay, you got me there.

Steffy” well the truth hurts, so.

Finn: Does it? Come here.

[ Steffy laughs ]

Liam: Hey, steffy? Oh, sorry.

Steffy: No.

Finn: No, no worries liam, come on in.

Liam: I know I’m interrupting, I know that, I’m sorry.

Finn: No, no we were just, you’re not– we were just talking about steffy’s snoring.

Steffy: Don’t even think about weighing in.

Liam: I– don’t– dude, I plead the fifth.

Steffy: Smart man.

Finn: Yeah, very smart.

Steffy: Oh, I have kelly’s homework for you.

Liam: Ah, thank you, thank you, thank you. Um, do you have a second?

Steffy: Yeah. Yeah. What’s, uh, what’s goin’ on?

Thomas: You, uh, you haven’t given me an answer.

Taylor: Huh? Oh, what about rj being home? I mean, am I happy? Yeah, why?

Thomas: I mean, look he’s– I know that you– you like him, he’s a good kid. Got no issue with him.

Taylor: Of course not, honey. I mean, come on, he’s– he’s ridge’s son, he’s your brother.

Thomas: Half-brother.

Taylor: Whatever. He’s family.

Thomas: Right.

Taylor: Mm-hmm.

Thomas: Dad and brooke created him together.

Taylor: You mean they–

Thomas: Oh my god.

Taylor: Is that how conception works?

Thomas: Haha, mom, I’m just saying that him being back, it could change all the dynamics.

Taylor: Maybe, I don’t know. How do you feel?

Rj: Hope, you’ve been seriously killing it. The line is so hot right now, not to mention all the philanthropy it’s generating.

Hope: Aw, thank you, rj. That’s so sweet and thank you for letting me run ideas by you.

Ridge: Ah-ha! So, you’ve been paying attention to the family business after all.

Hope: Oh, let me guess, your dad is already trying to recruit you to work here.

Brooke: His father would like nothing more.

Ridge: No, all I’m saying is that, you know, your sister and I, we run this joint, so we can probably find you a nice table next to donna and pam.

[ Rj chuckling ] Angel soft toilet paper is… strong… and soft!

Steffy: Liam, I understand you wanting reassurance about thomas and trust me, it wasn’t easy for me to forgive him too, I was upset.

Finn: I was hesitant. But, I saw how important it was to taylor and the family, so I sucked it up and I’m glad I did.

Steffy: Yeah, me too, and it’s nice having thomas back in our lives. Look, I wouldn’t have forgiven him if I didn’t truly believe he’d changed.

Liam: I know, I know, I know, I just– I wish it were that simple for me.

Steffy: I…

Finn: Okay, I know it’s more complicated for you, liam, but, uh, I gotta work.

Steffy: Yeah, yeah I gotta get to the office too so, uh.

Finn: Why don’t you, uh, call me about this later?

Steffy: Okay, I’ll call you. I love you.

Finn: All right. Have a good day.

Liam: I– I don’t want to put you on the spot, I swear. The problem is that I trust you. You’re telling me thomas is improving, he’s really working on himself, he’s making great strides, okay, cool. What’s the degree, though? Like, uh, like how much of a change are we talking about? Is this a radical change? Is this enough of a change that I don’t have to worry about him working with my wife all day and all night?

Taylor: I feel like I kinda asked you first, but okay, fine. How do I feel about rj being back? I’m happy, I am– I am– okay here, I am happy that brooke and ridge have their son back home.

Thomas: Are you though, really?

Taylor: Yes! Am I happy that they have their son back home? Of course, I am! I mean, I know what it was like, you know, when I was away from you, thousands of miles away. It’s A… it’s a terrible feeling, you know? And rj, rj left home when he was so young, you know. He was probably like, what, this big? And now, he’s probably, like, this big?

Thomas: Kinda like this big. He’s like– he’s big. He’s almost out of school!

Taylor: You know what, babies are always gonna be our babies and you’re gonna feel the same way about douglas when he gets older. I mean, I… I look at you and I cannot believe how old you are.

Thomas: Thanks.

[ Taylor laughs ]

Taylor: Come on, if you’re old, then I’m ancient. Come on, it’s gonna be nice to see your half-brother.

Thomas: Yeah, it is. It’ll be great and I’m– and I’m looking forward to catching up with him.

Taylor: Good, I mean, I think there’s going to be a lot to catch up on, I– I do. And hopefully you and steffy are going to be able to spend a lot of time with him, you know? It’s important. Um, don’t think I don’t notice you are still dodging the question.

Taylor: Yeah, I… I do seem nervous. I– I– I know that there are some factors at play here and you’re wondering how I feel about rj being back and if, um, if I think his presence is gonna get ridge and brooke back together and I would say… probably so.

Ridge: I’m only kidding! You wanna come work here, you get your own office and we’ll put “rj” or “ridge jr.” Or– or “mr. Forrester” on the door.

Brooke: Well, now that’s a pretty sweet deal, rj.

Ridge: It is and I’ll make it even sweeter. You know what? Own parking spot, next to mine.

Rj: You’re crackin’ me up.

Ridge: What?

Rj: You’ve– you’ve gone from offering me an internship to just, like, handing me the keys to the company.

Ridge: I’m not a good negotiator, everybody knows that.

Rj: No offence, dad, but come on, you know how I feel. This is a fashion house, forrester creations. It’s a company that granddad and grandma built from the ground up. One that mom helped innovate, one that you and steffy have been running like pros and that’s awesome and I’m proud of this place and everything you guys have accomplished but… I really wanna try to do my own thing, you know? Establish my own identity.

Ridge: By being an influencer?

Rj: Yeah, I’m– I’m building my brand. I’ve got a lot of followers. I’ve– mom, hope, can you please back me up on this?

Hope: He does have a ton of followers. He is doing quite well.

Brooke: Yes, he is. Gosh, so much pressure, right? Sorry, honey. Will you stop, please? Don’t drive our son away before he’s even spent one night here. – They get it.

Steffy: Here.

Liam: Thank you. Here’s the thing, you’re just– you’re the only person I know who is both close to thomas and at least capable of being objective about him.

Steffy: Liam, I wouldn’t lie to you. If I had any misgivings about thomas, if I doubted him, then I wouldn’t have accepted his apology. I wouldn’t have rehired him at forrester. Remember, we were not in a good place.

Liam: Oh, I do remember.

Steffy: I blame thomas for taking away my parents’ chance at a future together.

Liam: As you should have.

Steffy: And we hit a rough patch and I honestly didn’t think I’d be able to trust him again.

Liam: So, what– what now? Is it– is it just that you, like, feel it in your bones? I mean, you sure you’re not caving into pressure because it’s the sisterly thing to do?

Steffy: I truly believe thomas is a different person.

Liam: Really? Like, what– so, what made the difference for you?

Steffy: I know my brother. I know when he’s struggling and I can sense when there’s something to be concerned about. And right now, all I feel is… his calmness, his humility, his determination. Thomas is not hung up on hope anymore. He is focused on being a dedicated father and a designer and my father and my mother sees it too. I gotta tell you, it’s– it’s really a wonderful time for our family.

Thomas: Okay, so, you– you do think that rj being back in town could bring dad and brooke back together?

Taylor: There is no doubt in my mind.

Thomas: And you’re– you’re, what? You’re just cool with that?

Taylor: I am– I am– I am– I don’t know, I’m indifferent? I don’T… you know, they– they share a child together and…

Thomas: Yeah, dad shares multiple children with you.

Taylor: Oh– oh, yes and… this isn’t just about sharing a child, obviously. You know, there… brooke and ridge are gonna wanna spend time together with the family and– and, because that’s what families do and– and you and steffy are gonna be a part of that. And you know what? I’d even be able to have some big, crazy dinner with both families, which could be kinda fun.

Thomas: Okay.

Taylor: Come on. We can put the “fun” in dysfunctional.

Thomas: Mm.

Taylor: It’ll be really good to see rj.

Thomas: Okay, yeah, well as much fun as we could have, um, this could still cause you a lot of pain.

Taylor: I trust my friendship with brooke and all I care about is honesty and transparency from her when it comes to ridge because that’s what our pact is. Friends first.

Brooke: Ooh, I can’t believe you’re back, I just don’t wanna let you go.

Hope: Mom, I don’t think he can breathe.

Brooke: Oh, I’m not squeezing too tight, am I honey?

Rj: No, no, you’re fine, mom. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss your hugs.

Brooke: Oh, my sweet boy.

Ridge: Also, we have a gym here at forrester, I don’t know if you knew that.

Rj: Yes, I know we have a gym, dad.

Ridge: It’s open 24 hours. You could take pictures of yourself in the mirror, doing whatever you guys do.

Rj: That’s very funny, dad, but, you know, that’s not really my kinda thing. That’s a nice pose though.

Ridge: Thank you and we could work out, once a month or whatever, you know, you think is appropriate.

Hope: Okay, you know what? He only just got home and I don’t think we should be pushing so hard to get him to work here just yet. I don’t want him feeling cornered, so–

Rj: No, it’s okay, I don’t feel cornered. I know my dad’s just lookin’ out for me.

Ridge: I am looking out for him, that’s what I’m doing.

Hope: Okay.

Ridge: Also looking out for the company a little bit because I know how talented you are and you could help us.

Rj: Thank you, dad. That’s high praise coming from you, actually. I really appreciate it, but… I mean, I don’t know, I– I just, I really wanna try to do my own thing, you know?

Ridge: Well, I hope that doing your thing will bring you back to this office, working with me. Martial arts is my passion.

Taylor: I don’t wanna talk about me anymore, I wanna talk about you and how you feel about ridge jr. Being home.

Thomas: Okay, look, I don’t exactly know what you mean. Like, how do I feel about what?

Taylor: How do you– thomas. How do you feel about your half-brother being home?

Thomas: I don’t know. Good, I guess? Look, it’s– it’s not like we, uh, hang out all the time and like you adorably pointed out, um, I am much older than him, like really old apparently.

Taylor: Super old.

Thomas: But at least not ancient. Okay look, and especially after everything that’s gone down recently… I don’t know, look, I’m sure that we’ll get together and we will bury the hatchet.

Taylor: Hm, I think that’s a good idea and there is no time like the present. Come on, let’s go.

Thomas: Why do you have to be so pushy?

Taylor: Uh, have you met me? Come on, let’s go, age before beauty.

Thomas: Ancient before old.

Taylor: Oh, my god, you did not.

Thomas: Yup.

Taylor: Come, thomas, let’s go. Come on!

[ Thomas sighing ]

Steffy: Don’t feel bad for having reservations.

Liam: Huh, reservations. That’s– that’s, uh, diplomatic, especially when hope’s spending her entire work day with thomas, well into the night.

Steffy: Well they’re– they’re creating a line, that’s what designers do and there’s a lot of pressure to perform.

Liam: I know. You know what? You’re– I– I know that, you’re right. I’m proud of hope’s career, I want to be supportive, I want her to succeed. It’s– it’s just that when it comes to thomas specifically, she… I don’t wanna talk this to death and– and hope knows how I feel.

Steffy: Your opinion has changed?

Liam: I can’t really put my finger on it, I just… I started thinking maybe it’s not just thomas. Maybe there’s something… with hope that keeps bringing her back to him.

Ridge: Door is always open.

Brooke: I think he gets the picture, ridge.

Hoep: Yeah, loud and clear.

Ridge: What he doesn’t get is that he was given a talent. Same talent that your grandfather has and thomas, zende, sometimes me. It’s a gift, you can create things. But you have something else and that could make you the best out of all of us because you inherited your mom’s brain.

Hope: Okay, ridge is right there.

Ridge: Yeah.

Hope: You got the best of both worlds and while I don’t want to add to the arm-twisting by ridge sr. Over here, working here does have its perks.

Rj: Oh, no, there’s no doubt about that. The work you guys do here is amazing and it’s known worldwide, I mean… I’m not gonna lie too, it has opened some doors for me but… I just, I wanna try to pave my own way, whatever that is.

Taylor: Oh, my gosh, there he is.

Rj: Taylor, hey!

Taylor: Hey. Wow, look at you, it’s wonderful to see you!

Rj: It’s great to see you too. Thomas.

Thomas: Little brother. It’s good to see you. I missed you.

Rj: It’s good to see you too. I, uh, I was just sayin’ how I’ve been keeping up with hope for the future. Dude, incredible work, truly. You’ve– you’ve really developed into a world-class designer.

Thomas: Thanks, man. I appreciate that.

Rj: But, uh, I do believe your success is because you take after dad.

Thomas: Our weird, mischievous father.

Ridge: What– what is that? Where’s that comin’ from? There’s nothin’ weird about me. I created the two of you, right?

Thomas: That’s a good point, yeah sure.

Ridge: It’s not a question, it’s a great point!

Thomas: Sure, yeah.

Ridge: My two boys, all grown up. This is the kind of moment that a man, a father lives for, ’cause I helped raise both of you with these two amazing women. I love you guys. Glad you’re home.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

Oh, what do you, what do you mean? Oh, yes, Kayla Andrew. Sounds like, I know it sounds crazy, but that’s what Megan told us, but that’s who it was. What are you talking about? When we were on the island, we found another cryogenic tube. Um, we just assumed that Megan had been keeping somebody else alive. We thought it might have been Stefano, but then Ralph said it was not Stefano.

He was about to tell us who it was when Megan walked in on us. Marlena, what do he say? I’m saying I think Megan might have been telling the truth. Truth. We’re done, Megan. We’re done. There’s nothing left to say.

Commander Michaels, I’m, uh, I’m Hope son, Sean Douglas. Brady. Hey, your mom showed me pictures. Very proud of you. Come on in. Thanks. So, um, Why are you here in Greece? Uh, well after my mom told me, not only is my aunt Kayla missing, so is my uncle Steve figured I’d come here and see if I could help. You have any leads yet?

Nope. Not a word on any of them. I went to my mom’s room, she’s not in there, so I’m assuming she’s out looking for them now. You know where she’s at. Yeah, I do. Hey, is anybody out there?

You gotta get yourself outta here, man.

Oh, thank God we found you. You don’t know how good it is to see you, but where’s dad? Is he in another room? He’s not here. He’s being held captive. But what do you mean who is holding him?

Anybody here? Hello.

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

My God, Bo Alive. Let’s definitely one for the books. Keep him for Salem. So all this time, Megan has kept him locked away in some cryogenic too. That’s what it sounds like. Okay. Well, if Bo has Kayla’s and Kayla’s, okay. Bo wouldn’t hurt his own sister at hell. Bo wouldn’t hurt anybody. I’m not so sure that’s true.

Of course it is. Andrew, you know Bo, I know how he used to be, but Megan also told us that. He was the one who killed Kate.

Oh.

Be another way outta here.

It’s gotta be

is alive. You’ve actually seen him. Yeah. On the island where Megan was keeping us, I managed to get away from Ralph and I just ran right into him. So Megan’s had him all this time. Cryogenically preserved just like Marlena and Kate and me. If you and Paul managed to escape, why didn’t he just take you back to Salem?

Because Beau doesn’t wanna go back to Salem.

This possible.

Am I seeing what I think? I’m

you.

That’s not possible. My brother wouldn’t kill anyone, let alone my wife, Kate. I didn’t wanna believe it either. But Megan was adamant that Thomas Banks was not the one who killed Kate. It was Beau. Let’s just, let’s just back up here a second. Since winter, we believing a word that comes outta Megan Hathaway Smart.

I say, Andrew, judge us right back to that prison. We get the truth out of her tonight. By any means necessary. Yeah, I don’t think that’s a good idea. You’re a civilian and it’s long past visiting hours. Yeah. What if I have an ISA agent at my side? Even if I could get you in there, there’s no guarantee that Megan would give us any other information that she hasn’t already given me.

Andrew’s Wright partner here. If she’s lying, which she is. I doubt that she’s gonna change her story now. I’ll just have to give her a reason. You’re not gonna do that. First of all, Andrew won’t let you anywhere near her. And secondly, that isn’t who you are. See what the hell am I supposed to do? Am I supposed to wave around here and find out if my brother who’s now suddenly alive kills a woman?

I love?

I know this is so hard on you. It’s hard on everybody. But we are focusing way too much on Megan here. We’re not going to get any answers tonight, and I think you’re gonna know all your strength when you do get the answers. So why don’t I drive you home and you can, you can get some rest.

None of this makes any sense, ma. After all those years of being held captive, bow doesn’t wanna go back to his family. To, to his life in Salem? No, he doesn’t. That’s why he is holding me here, Megan and Ra, for using those prisms to make a serum. And that’s why Megan was holding Marlena and Kate and I, because she wanted to use us as Guinea pigs to test out her youth serum.

And, and so that’s what Uncle Bell wants. Now the this serum, oh, that’s part of it, but he really wants, is to use it for a. A fortune. He wants to build his own empire like Victor did. Since when does Uncle Beau wanna be anything like Victor? He may have Keri’s blood, but he is always been a Brady at heart.

Mom, what is going on? None of this sounds like Uncle Bo. No, it doesn’t. He’s not himself. Not at all. And now I’m afraid that your father’s gonna pay the price.

A cross face,

no air events.

All right. Okay.

Take one.

My mom went to my grandfather’s childhood home. What? Why would she do that? Well, your cousin Stephanie, put together a list for places to search. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. My aunt Kayla mentioned something about Victor on the phone, and that’s the reason why you guys are searching his properties. Yeah, but my mom texted me yesterday and she said that the farm was a dead end.

Well, I was the one who searched the farm, and that’s what I told your mother. But that wasn’t really, that wasn’t really true. The place wasn’t empty. Okay. Well, did you find something? No. I found someone who? Your father?

I can’t. Paris didn’t tell me what I would find. Just said I would, I would understand what I got, but never, I mean, never in a million years I ever think. I think it would be you.

How. How is this possible? How that you’re here? That, that you’re, what am I dreaming? Am I? No. Is it real? No. Dream. And you’ve been here this whole time, just the past few days. Harris found you here? Yes. He found me.

I don’t understand. He told me this place was a deserted. If he knew you were here, why didn’t he tell me? Why did you lie to me? I told him to lie.

All right. Here you go, kid. Thanks. I don’t, don’t, don’t thank me yet. You know, I would’ve spiked yours, but I know you have to drive back to the field office, Coco Doc’s weakness, which you indulge. You know? I do. Hmm. No marshmallows. Those are only for Marlena. I can’t take my life on my hands by busting into her stash.

Hey, listen, before you showed up, I made up a late night snack here while I was working on the case. So, um, feel free to help yourself if you want. Thanks.

You thinking about Roman, huh? Isn’t it that obvious? Well, only to someone who knows the situation here. Well, I have reason to worry about him, don’t I? What with Bo being alive and learning that he’s the one who might have killed Kate. Yeah, it’s um, so after take in, that’s for damn sure. I just can’t help but think if there is a way that I put, if not told him, oh, no, no, no, no.

Can’t even think like that. Can’t tell him the truth. Uh, Even if it hurts, it’s always the right thing to do. And besides, we’re talking about Megan Hathaway here. I’m gonna, I’m gonna bet you dollars to donuts. There’s a hell of a lot more to the story than she’s saying. Certainly possible. I’m more like probable, you know, right now let’s just focus on getting Aunt Kayla back and, and there’s as crazy as the sounds bow, but you know what we need to keep in mind that.

The, if this is Bo and if he has done all these terrible things, we have to remember that he was under Megan’s influence, and I know from personal experience just how powerful. It influences, but I also know that it’s reversible. Yeah, that’s what I’m hoping for. Yeah, me too. So with any luck, this story ends with Bo getting well and reuniting himself with hope.

What are you thinking about? You don’t think that can happen? No, I, uh, I hope you’re right. That bow makes a full recovery and I know how happy that would make on hope. Mm-hmm. And the rest of the family for that matter, I guess I. I, I just can’t help thinking about Harris Michaels and how this is all going to affect him.

No, no, no. That’s, that’s not possible. You, you couldn’t have found my father cuz he’s dead. I, I know this is shocking and I know this is what you’ve all believed for a very long time, but I am telling you the truth. Your father is alive. Sean, I’m not lying to you.

Oh my God. I Wait, does my mom know I, oh, wait, wait. Hold on. Wait a second. Wait, wait, wait. You said that you found my father at Vicker’s Childhood Home, right? Wait, you told my mother that the place was empty? Yes, I did. Okay. Why would you lie to her? I like that. I was afraid to lose her. You, you said on a bitch you didn’t, you didn’t tell my mother that her own husband is alive, that you’re upset.

I felt terrible about that. That’s why I sent her to Victor’s home. And listen, I felt I knew. That she needed to see him for herself.

My God,

my, my father is, my father’s alive. There’s, there’s something else that you should know. What? He’s not the man. You remember

you told Harris. Not to tell me that you were here.

Why would you do that? I figured your boyfriend wouldn’t want the competition. You are involved with him, right? Yeah. I was, I thought you were dead.

Wow.

If I had known you were alive in the love of my life,

you’re the only one I want.

Yeah. Well, I don’t want you.

Okay, here we go.

How could Uncle Vo hold you and dad prisoner? I don’t know. I just, I just think that Megan got into his head somehow. I get that, I think. But no matter what’s going on with Uncle Vo, no matter how Megan May have messed with his head, you don’t think he’d hurt dad, do you? Well, he hasn’t so far. But that doesn’t change the fact that we need to get him out of the cellar, and we’re not gonna do that if we’re standing around here.

So when we all get back together, we can talk about how we’re gonna help fa

meeting you here.

Thomas Banks, you’re supposed to be in jail. Didn’t you get out? That’s a funny thing. Turns out cops are criminally underpaid, so you bribed them. And I wasn’t the first one. Some Americans swept, screwed ’em outta what they thought was theirs. Three very PCI prisms, speaking of which, I’ll be taking them with me.

And now that I got what I want, I’ll be on my way except for my revenge.

Harris Michaels, why would you be worried about him? I spent some time with him when he was being deprogrammed. He was so guilt ridden over what he had done under Megan’s control, his torture for him, the regret, the time lost. The only thing that seemed to lift his spirits was the possibility of a relationship without hope.

Only He was reluctant to pursue it because of. Well, sculpt of Uncle Beau. I see. But I encouraged him and told him to go for it. I mean, since Uncle Beau is thought to be dead and. Now that we know otherwise. I mean, obviously I’m thrilled for all of us, but I mean, after everything that Michael’s has been through, I hate to get his heart.

What do you mean? My father’s not the man I remember. I think he’s been brainwashed by Megan Hathaway. Look, I don’t, I don’t know who he was before, but something was off and he pulled a gun on me. Yeah. I mean, he doesn’t know you. I mean, he probably thought you were a threat. He knew Kate Roberts, right?

Yeah, of course he, he knows Kate. Would he perceive her as a threat? Where are you going with this? We know that Megan had Bo on the same island where she was holding Kate and the rest captive. Yeah. But we also know that Kate was killed by Thomas Banks. We don’t, we don’t know that Thomas Banks denies having anything to do with Kate’s murder.

Yeah. What do you expect him to do you think He’s just gonna confess? He, he has an alibi. No, no, no, no, no. There’s no way. There’s no way that my father would kill Kate. No.

Look, the father you knew wouldn’t have. But that’s what I’m, I’m trying to tell you, something’s changed. Look, I know what Megan’s brainwashing can do to somebody. Firsthand because it happened to me when I was under her control. I killed two men in cold blood and I have to live with that every single day and all the other horrible things I did when I wasn’t myself.

Okay, so do you wait, do you think, do you think that my father would hurt my mother if he’s under Megan’s controls? You think that my mother is in danger? I honestly, I don’t know, but I know how much they love each other. I know how strong their connection was. And if anybody can bring Bo out of this, it’s your mom.

And it’s just better if I wasn’t there. Damn it, we, if you don’t know what my father is capable of, why the hell did you send my mother out there alone?

You don’t want me. That’s what I said. You don’t mean it. You can’t mean it. You don’t. What’s the matter with you? What’s wrong? Foam? Are you angry? Are you mad? Are, do you blame me for not finding you sooner? Is that it? What? What is it?

If I had known that you were alive, I never would’ve stopped looking for you. I would’ve spent every waking second looking for you. Oh my God. All these years. All these years. Great. So worry. I was always there when I wake up in the morning when I get into bed.

Had lost you. Look at me.

I thought that I’d seen you for the last time I touched you for the last time I thought you were dead.

That was the last time.

I am no longer that man thanks to Rolf. You could say I was reborn.

Rolf,

you were a reborn Brady. Don’t call me that. What? Brady? That’s not who I am. Oh, it is. I am Victor. Kik, his son. I have Kiki’s blood running through my veins. I’m gonna make something of myself like he did. Why would you have to do that? You’re already a wonderful man. You’re a great husband. Grandfather, I know you’re, you’re a grandfather.

Wait until you meet. Little bow. So you’re named him after you.

He looks just like here, baby.

But you’re see for yourself. Our family and friends of love who missed you,

you’re gonna be so happy and thrilled when you come back home with me. I’m not going anywhere with you. You’re, yeah, you’re just like them. You don’t listen. Just like Steve and Kayla. Steve and Kayla, they are,

Kayla is taking care of something for me and Steve is locked up in the wine cellar.

Yeah, Steve locked up. Can’t let you do that. Put it down now

put it down.

Oh kid, it’s, uh, it’s kind of you to think of this guy. You know, it’s, um, you got a really big heart here, but if, if Michael’s loses hope, that’s not on you. If I encouraged him, yeah. With the best of intentions though, you know, love doesn’t come with any guarantee. I think you know that better than anybody.

I mean, I, I, I’ll go, I don’t wanna bring up something so personal here, but I think about you and my son Paul, quite a bit. You know, the, the connection that you two had, I found that to be really, really special. And then for one reason or another, you know, it just doesn’t work out. Uh, actually, I should probably let Paul tell you this, but.

He and I decided to give it another shot. No way. Yeah. Really nice. Can’t tell you how happy I’m for you. That’s great. Thanks. But with everything else going on, it just seems kind of trivial, trivial. Come on. What are you talking about, man? There’s nothing trivial about love. I, I’m not. Assuming that the two of you, I love running like that.

I’m just, I’m trying, I’m trying to, I really stuck my foot in an air, haven’t I? No, you haven’t. You haven’t. But you know, Paul and I haven’t gotten as far as to call it love. Yeah. And we know it could be a challenge, you know, making it work with my career with the ISA and his baseball career, but we realize that.

You think we have something really special? And you’re right. Something to hold onto. Um, we just wanna see how far it can go. Well, I am only wishing the two of you the very best and Andrew, you know, you know, God and I, we’ve, we’ve, we’ve had, you know, a lot of ups and gallons over the years, but I wouldn’t trade a moment of that.

You know, I guess what I’m, I’m trying to say is that there is a risk that, that relationships aren’t gonna work out. But, but what you have to do is you have to, you gotta weigh the rewards. And when you do that, that, that, that risk is what I hope my kids will always want to take

revenge. Obviously you’re the little bitch that shut my ear little off. He was an accident. I don’t think so. Judge Strap and me telling me a terrible story about Suzie’s fiery crash and then you didn’t hesitate to ma may Ma. Still says scratch. Quite honestly, it’s an improvement. I think I’m everything right.

You can’t blame Chad. You are struggling over the gun and whose fault was that missing? Because little blue eyes here, I gotta walk around Madison Earlobe now you know what they say? One good turn deserves another. My God, you are afraid that my father was gonna hurt my mother. Why didn’t you just go to the farm with her?

Who is that? Is that my mom that Stephanie, she and Chad are trying to track down Stephen K’s and sos. I know we’re there. I’ll go to them. You get to your mom as fast as you can

reach for the gun again, you’ll regret it. Okay.

I wanna check on Steve. Why don’t we both go to the cell and see how he’s doing. Steve is staying put.

You’re coming with me.

Chair girl, sweetness. Oh, where are we going? Where you taking me? I’m not taking you anywhere. This is the end of the line. You’re not making any sense. What are you talking about? The end of the line.

I can’t be the man I’m meant to be with you in the world.

That don’t mean to get too biblical, but it’s an ear for an ear, my friend. You can’t just shoot him. What if you miss? Oh, a pretty good shot, but. If I happen to hit there, just set it there. Well, it’s just collateral damage in it. Now you hold real steel. We would want you to lose your baby maker. Now, would we?

Looks like he showed up right there.

Hey. Oh, hi. Wheres Andrew? Well, he had to head back to the field office, finish up his report for the isa, and wanted to see how the investigation’s going on. Megan’s claims. How’d you leave Roman? Well, he was a lot calmer once I got him back to the pub. His head is spinning, you know, trying to imagine that Bowie has been alive all this time.

I can’t even wrap my head around this. I mean, all these years thinking that he was gone. Could he really be back?

How can you even say that and what in God’s name does that even mean? You can’t be the man you’re meant to be? If, if I’m in this world, don’t sing, I’m making a new life for myself, becoming the man I was born to be. And you people, you, you keep pulling at me, yapping at me. You’re like, and now here, here, you’re ruining everything.

I’m Victor Koch’s son, and I’m becoming the man I’m supposed to be. You keep trying to pull me back to that life. Oh God.

Back to that old love.

The only way I could be the man I’m meant to be.

This to get rid of you? No.

No. Dammit.

You’ll listen to Pete Brady and Yes. Yes. That that is your name and that is who you are. You’re pro Brady the best man. I know. You’re the love of my life. It’ll never, ever change. Just like I know that you are in love for me, it’s never gonna change it no matter what you say or what you do. You’ll never convince me otherwise because you know what?

There is one fundamental truth between, between you and Megan that is that we love each other to the very depths of our soul.

So don’t matter what happens here today, nothing will ever extinguish that love. Not anything. Ralph couldn’t do it. Nobody else could either. So many people both have tried to keep us up. Barbara, they couldn’t do it. They couldn’t,

and so many things, so, So many obstacles. So many obstacles have stood in our way. And you know what? We’ve overcome them, every single one of them. So you could stand there with that gun pointing at me with your finger on the trigger, telling yourself that you’re better off without me. But you know what, you’ll never, ever really believe it, because what’s what’s talking at you?

It’s your heart. It’s the truest, purest part of you and it knows the only place you belong is with faith,

with your fancy face. I’m your fancy.

Just told me I should write fight songs. That’s what we do half the time. We’ve been together forever through thicker and dinner, like the day that we promised.

The best

with friendships and.

Make me much better ever.

Easy At times it’s unruly. Sometimes it comes at

the deep in.

And the,

I still love you.

You

are the one true love of my life. I love you.

Transcript provided by Suzanne

Billy: No comment. The family is requesting privacy at this moment. No need to call tomorrow ’cause you’re gonna get the same two words. Know them. Learn them. No comment.

Kyle: You doing the same thing I’ve been doing?

Billy: Trying to find new and exciting ways to tell these reporters to buzz off?

Kyle: Mm. Mariah’s coming back from maternity leave early to help us manage the situation.

Billy: That’s good. All hands on deck. We’ve been at this for a few hours right now and I don’t see it slowing down.

Kyle: I was hoping work would be an distraction from my family’s problems. Instead, the problems are swallowing up everything else.

Jack: Have you had any luck getting a trace on stark’s money? Well, that’s a disappointment. Have you tried overseas? That’s where he usually stashes his cash. Okay. Leave no stone unturned, please. My fiancé’s freedom is at stake.

[ Groans ]

Ashley: You okay? Sure I don’t have to ask you what that phone call was about.

Jack: What is happening to diane is in travesty of justice.

Ashley: Okay, and you’re gonna set things straight.

Jack: Well, I’m certainly gonna help.

Ashley: What does that exactly mean? Who were you talking to?

Jack: Michael put me in touch with a financial forensics expert who is working on diane’s defense.

Ashley: Okay. Well, michael’s her attorney, so let him handle things, jack.

Jack: I’m trying to help him.

Ashley: What kind of help can you provide?

Jack: I am trying to save my fiancee from a life behind bars.

Ashley: I get it. So, you’re gonna make sure that once again, diane doesn’t have to take responsibility for her actions.

[ Daniel groaning ]

Daniel: No!

Lily: Hey. Hey. It’s okay. You just had a bad dream. You okay?

Daniel: Mm-hmm. Yeah, um, it’s just a dream. Just a dream.

Lily: Hey, I’m here, okay? You’re okay.

Victor: Tucker, my man.

Tucker: Thanks for meeting me.

Victor: Thank you. It’s a rather strange venue for you to choose to have this meeting. I mean, considering what happened here.

Tucker: For me, it’s just a bar with a good bourbon selection and good music.

Victor: That’s a really cavalier description of this place.

Tucker: I can tell you that phyllis would feel the same way if it were me in the morgue.

Victor: Uh-huh.

Tucker: Anyway, you ready to talk business?

Victor: Yeah. So I read through this contract, I liked it. I put my signatures to it. And so can you. Um… then, your company will become mine.

Tucker: You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?

Victor: I don’t give a damn how I feel. When it comes to business, I’m cold as ice. You know that. So, would you sign? Unless, of course, you have some reservations. That’s me before dawn powerwash.

Announcer: Additional sponsorship provided by… eggland’s best.

Lily: Do you remember your dream?

Daniel: I was, uh, outside of the coffee house and I see mom at the end of the street, so I started racing towards her. It was like just as I got to her, suddenly I was back in my house in savannah. It was– it was just like before I came back to genoa city. Heather wasn’t there, lucy wasn’t there. I mean, the house, it– it just felt bigger. Emptier. Really lonely.

Lily: I know. I had that happen when my dad died. It’s like I would wake up and think for a second that he was back and–

[ Lily sighing ] Or I would be walking somewhere and see someone that I thought resembled him.

Daniel: It actually happened.

Lily: Really?

Daniel: Yeah. It was the day at the memorial. There was this woman there who must have been her height. I– I saw her like just real quick from the side, but I mean, I still had to do a double take. Obviously, it wasn’t her, but you know, for a minute there gave me hope. And then, it’s just back to reality. That kind of crushed me.

Lily: I know. I’m sorry. But listen, once you get through this wave of grief, you’re gonna have random moments that remind you of your mom and it’s gonna help keep her spirit alive.

Daniel: I’m really glad you’re here. Does– it helps being with someone who gets it. Look, I also, I know it’s a lot, so if you need to go–

Lily: Where would I go and why would I?

Daniel: I’m just saying. You know, if you wanna pretend like what happened here between the two of us, it didn’t happen, then I’d understand.

[ Pours drink ]

Billy: Here you go. Cheers to you because you’ve been burning the candle on both ends.

Kyle: Yeah. I’m doing everything I can to help my parents. I’m fielding media requests and whatever else I can do to help my dad free up his time because he needs to be spending it proving my mother’s innocence.

Billy: Have you talked to her lately?

Kyle: Briefly. At the arraignment. Dad went to visit her this afternoon. She told him not to come back. She doesn’t want us to visit her, supposedly for her own good.

Billy: I’m sorry, man. That’s tough.

Kyle: I’m hoping she’ll change her mind. She needs to know we’re in this together, doing everything we can to get her out of there.

Billy: Look, it’s good that you’re supporting her and of course, you would and jack for that matter, but you cannot neglect your own life in the process. You know, you’re telling me that this situation is affecting your marriage. Take it from the king of failed relationships, you’ve got to fix that problem before it’s too late. You cannot lose summer.

Jack: Maybe this is not a good day to take jabs at diane. I thought on maybe some basic human level, you might actually sympathize with her plight.

Ashley: Why would I?

Jack: She’s being locked up for a crime she didn’t commit. That doesn’t resonate with you? At least you know what it feels like to be wrongly accused.

Ashley: Oh, I do, indeed, because of diane. And just for the record, I think she’s rightfully accused.

Jack: Wow. You take some pleasure in saying that, don’t you? Like you won something. You are wrong. She is innocent and she is suffering and because she has been denied bail, she refuses to even see me.

Ashley: Okay, well that’s the wisest decision she’s ever made. Listen to her and move on, please.

Jack: Even if you actually believe diane was guilty of murder, the level of spite in this conversation is outrageous. She was framed, ash.

Ashley: You keep saying that. But the way I see it, she had every reason to want phyllis out of the picture so she could have everything. So she could have the loving relationship, the job at marchetti, the home in the abbott mansion and your ring on her finger.

What are folks 60 and older

up to these days?

Tucker: I have no reservations about selling my company. I’m done with this town and I’m done with mccall unlimited. It used to be my passion, now it’s just a burden I no longer wish to carry.

Victor: Oh, my god. How touching, tucker. You expecting my sympathy or what?

Tucker: I think I know you a little better than that.

Victor: All right. If it makes you feel better, I just want you to know that your company will continue to thrive, you know. Although, I may change its name.

Tucker: I couldn’t care less what you call it. I just– I’m looking forward to it not being my problem anymore.

Victor: Well, then why don’t you put that pen to paper.

Tucker: Just for due diligence, I would like to look it over one last time.

[ Victor laughing ]

Victor: Do I need to remind you that you are the one who came running to me?

Tucker: Mm. I know that. And I’m gonna sign it soon. You have my word.

Victor: Well, in that case, I’m looking forward to the confirmation of your signature.

[ Both sighing ]

Kyle: Summer moved into a guest room.

Billy: Uh-oh. Separate rooms is the first step towards separate lives. Are you two fighting?

Kyle: That’s the thing. We’d almost be better if we were. She’s just completely shut down. She said she’s moved rooms because she didn’t want to wake me with her tossing and turning. But I think she can’t bear to look at me. She’s convinced my mother killed hers.

Billy: That’s a relationship dilemma I’ve never dealt with.

Kyle: Yeah. And the only solution I see is to clear my mother’s name, not only for her innocence but for my marriage. Summer is so inside her head right now.

Billy: What do you mean by that?

Kyle: She only comes out of her room when she wants to spend time with harrison. And when she does, she puts on a good front, laughing and smiling and reading stories. But once she’s alone again, she completely shuts down.

Billy: Sounds like she’s dealing with grief in her own way.

Kyle: I get that. And I want her to have all the space and time she needs, but I’m not so sure she can heal on her own. So, I don’t know what to do because if I can’t talk to her, I can’t help her. And every time we do talk, it only makes things worse. The only solution I see is to clear my mother’s name.

Billy: I hear you. But you’re dead wrong.

Kyle: Why did I even start this conversation with you?

Billy: Because you need someone to talk to and I’m the only one here. You may not like my advice and I can’t force you to listen to me, but there’s a better way to help summer.

Jack: You seem to think I accepted everything diane said without any doubt. I had my doubts. I expressed them. I took a good look at them and I set them aside. Here’s what I believe. Diane is not capable of committing what she’s been accused of.

Ashley: And here’s what I believe. I think she is absolutely capable.

Jack: And I did not choose diane over phyllis. My relationship with phyllis had run its course long before diane came back into my life. One did not preclude the other. And just so we’re clear, while I am defending diane, I am mourning phyllis’s loss. I loved that woman very much and she was once a part of my family.

Ashley: Okay. But here’s the thing, jack. You know that I was never a phyllis fan, but even I saw what was going on. You took every opportunity to turn your back on phyllis when diane came to town. You did. And there was still something going on with phyllis. You know that. You can’t deny it.

Jack: Diane did not steal anything from phyllis. Not her job, not me, not any part of her life. Phyllis was an amazing woman, but she had a habit of getting in her own way a lot and you know that.

Ashley: Kind of sounds like you’re blaming phyllis for her own murder and that’s worse.

Jack: I want the actual killer of phyllis to face justice every bit as much as I want diane to be exonerated, but I believe diane is in jail right now for a crime jeremy stark committed.

Ashley: Yeah, you’re right. Diane’s a martyr. She is paying for all the sins that everybody else has committed. I see that now.

Jack: Diane is not perfect. No. She has made more than her share of mistakes. She’s hurt a lot of people. But unlike you, I believe people can change, people can grow, people can transform and I think diane has changed. And I think she is incapable of murder. So, I am going to defend the woman I love, the woman I intend to marry.

Ashley: Oh, my god. You still intend to marry her. You are such a fool. And you are reckless, jack. Not just with your legacy, but with my family’s and I’ve got a problem with that. I’ve got a big problem. You are willing to tie the entire abbott clan to a woman who’s gonna drag everybody down with her! Hi, my name is tony cooper.

I used to wait to run my dishwasher

Lily: We’re still in bed, so I think it’s a little late to pretend nothing happened.

Daniel: But you want to?

Lily: No. No. We have a connection and a history and I think we both wanted and needed this.

Daniel: I’m just glad this won’t mess things up between the two of us.

Lily: No, it won’T. You know, we don’t have to pretend like nothing happened, but we also don’t have to make it more than it was.

Daniel: And when I look at you, the lonely feeling that was in my dream just feels very far away.

Lily: Well, I’m really happy that I can help you find some solace from things, but no one else can help you but you. I know that grief transforms you and you will carry the loss of your mom with you forever. And there will be times that it feels like it just happened, even though it’s been a long time, but you have to take care of yourself. That is the most important thing right now.

Daniel: That’s what I’m trying to do.

Kyle: Billy, you’re not listening. I have tried every approach. She doesn’t wanna be around me. She doesn’t wanna look at me or be in the same room as me, so pushing her isn’t going to work.

Billy: Kyle, you’re a good person, okay? Of course, you’re gonna respect her time and her space, but you take that too far, those wounds, they become scar tissue. The distance becomes a chasm. Trust me, it’s really difficult to get back to where you were.

Kyle: What are you suggesting?

Billy: You gotta get her to listen. You go home. You make sure she knows how much you love her. You don’t mention diane, you don’t mention phyllis, you don’t mention any of the noise that’s swirling around you. You reassure her that you are not going anywhere. And when she’s ready to open up that door to you, you are standing there waiting with open arms.

Audra: Drinking alone?

Tucker: No, I’m here with all my friends.

Audra: [ Chuckles ] Well, that’s what happens when a guy burns every bridge.

Tucker: Hmm. Did you drop by just to rub it in?

Audra: Not necessarily. So, what are we, uh, drinking and thinking about?

Tucker: That’s funny you should ask. I was just thinking about the difference between being alone and being lonely. You know, I spent months in that ashram alone.

[ Laughs ] I never felt as lonely as I do right now.

Audra: Hmm. Look, I– I know I gave you a hard time about ashley, but I’m sorry it didn’t work out.

Tucker: I have no idea how I got here. Sure has been a long and winding road though. You know when I never felt lonely when I was young, just starting out in the music business.

Audra: Yeah. I’m– I’m sure a young tucker mccall was really alone.

Tucker: No, but it was all exciting, being around engaging, interesting people and managing bands, signing new artists.

Audra: All right. All right.

[ Chuckles ] Those glasses are pretty damn rosy. What you loved was signing artists to contracts they didn’t understand so they could make hits for you without getting properly compensated.

Tucker: Yeah. The good old days.

Audra: Okay.

Tucker: You and I had some good times, didn’t we?

Audra: We had our moments.

Tucker: Hey, I’m gonna go back up to my room. Would you join me? Moderate to severe eczema

Announcer: The young and the restless will continue.

Billy: Thank you. See you later. Hi.

Lily: [ Laughs ] Are– are you heading out?

Billy: Yeah. Yeah. Just grabbing some takeout.

Lily: Yeah. Yeah, we’re gonna eat as well.

Billy: How you holding up?

Daniel: As good as I can be, I suppose.

Billy: Yeah. I thought I should let you know that the media scrutiny around diane’s case is only growing, especially now that leanna love’s article published today. I really hope you don’t have to deal with any of that garbage, but you might.

Daniel: Mm. Thanks for the heads up.

Lily: We’ll get the pr team to draft a statement.

Daniel: I appreciate it, but that’s not necessary.

Lily: No, I know, but you’re an employee now now at chancellor-winters, so just direct any questions to us.

Daniel: I can handle it.

Lily: I know. Just let me do this for you.

[ Chuckles ]

Daniel: She’s hard to say no to.

Billy: Really? I hadn’t noticed. You’re in good hands. Lily knows how to take care of people. That’s why she’s in the big chair.

Lily: We should probably get a table, so have– have a good night.

Billy: Yeah, you too. Goodnight.

Audra: This is the contract for the sale of mccall unlimited?

Tucker: Mm-hmm.

Audra: That’s a big deal. This could be very rewarding for you.

Tucker: Hey, but you wanna know the best part? Check this out. It’s victor’s pen. I stole it from him.

Audra: This is a big change. No wonder you were ruminating on your start in the music business. It’s the foundation of your empire.

Tucker: It was the foundation.

Audra: You said you wanted to be free, right? There’s your ticket.

Tucker: It wasn’t supposed to end this way, audra.

Audra: Okay. It’s just one chapter coming to an end.

Tucker: What– whatever comes next for me, it’s not gonna happen in genoa city, I’ll tell you that.

Audra: So you’re definitely leaving town then? Makes sense. You’ve always been more of a big city kind of guy.

Tucker: Hey, you know, the money from this sale will mean that I can start over anywhere. What do you say? You wanna blow this town? Hm? Come on, let’s go. You wanna be my right hand again?

Billy: Got all your favorites. And I was thinking that maybe we can go have a picnic in the park because it is a beautiful night out there.

Chelsea: Two meals together in one day. You are setting a dangerous precedent.

Billy: I am willing to risk it if you are.

Chelsea: [ Laughs ] Let’s live on the edge.

Billy: Yeah.

Chelsea: What?

Billy: Nothing. Nothing. I’m just– I’m happy.

Chelsea: Well, I’m glad you’re happy

Billy: And I’m feeling lucky.

Chelsea: Why? I know the ceviche is really good. It’s society but–

Billy: [ Laughs ] Actually, speaking of society, I ran into, uh, lily and daniel while I was there.

Chelsea: Huh? How’s daniel?

Billy: He seemed okay, but I think your instincts were right to give him a little bit of space right now.

Chelsea: Okay. Well, good. I’m glad I didn’t approach him then.

Billy: You know, I picked up on a little something between the two of them.

Chelsea: Really?

Billy: Mm.

Chelsea: Something romantic? How do you feel about that?

Jack: You won’t allow me to marry the woman I love. That is ridiculous. My relationship with diane has nothing to do with you, and it will hardly bring down the family name.

Ashley: You know you had a problem with me going on a date with tucker, but it’s okay for you to marry a murderer.

Jack: Okay. I’ve had enough of that conversation. Diane didn’t kill anyone.

Ashley: You don’t know that for a fact! And what about the fallout? What about when word gets out that you’re marrying a woman that’s going on trial for murder? You don’t think people are gonna be affected by that one, jack? People like summer, like daniel. You don’t think jabot’s reputation is gonna take a huge hit trying to survive that?

Jack: I’m doing everything I can to exonerate diane before this ever goes to trial.

Ashley: Well, good luck. Let’s just push the physical evidence aside. What about the– the– the history diane has with phyllis, the hatred that goes back decades. She faked her death. Remember that? Diane faked her death. Let innocent people be arrested for it. When the word gets out about that, people are gonna understand that she’s absolutely capable of killing phyllis. They’ll know that if–

[ Door slamming ]

Kyle: Don’t bother trying to hide what you’re arguing about. I could hear you from outside the door.

Jack: No, I’m sorry. This is a difficult time for all of us, especially you and–

Kyle: Dad, I– I don’t wanna get into it right now. I need to talk to summer.

Jack: Can’t you see the pain he is in? We have enough heartache, enough misery in this house without you injecting your bitterness. If you can’t hold back your rage for diane, I suggest you move out. (Vo) get them to open up.

Audra: You’re moving fast, tucker.

[ Sighs ] You know, we went from an invitation to your suite to an invitation to anywhere in the world.

Tucker: Yeah. Is that a yes?

[ Audra laughs ]

Audra: You know, I have senior executive position at newman media with room for growth.

Tucker: You’re telling me that working for victoria newman is a dream of yours?

Audra: No, but I’m learning from her, okay, and I plan to teach her a thing or two as well.

Tucker: Ah, yes. Always an agenda, right?

Audra: You taught me well. Besides, genoa city has grown on me. Now, there are some fascinating people here too.

Tucker: I should have known you’d hedge your bets just like ashley and devon. Just like them, you’re pushing me away because you think– you think there are greener pastures somewhere, right? Let me tell you something, audra, most of the time there aren’T.

Audra: Oh, my god. You know what your problem is? You crave to be the center of other people’s lives. And when you don’t get total devotion or allegiance, you turn bitter. Now, I guess all that work you did on yourself didn’t really take. Ashley is right. You haven’t changed, but I knew that all along.

Tucker: I’m sorry that I asked you up here. I guess you should go, huh?

Audra: Yeah. Don’t wallow in your misery too long, tucker, because when you finally come out of that hole, no one will care you’re back.

[ Door slamming ]

Daniel: Did running into billy– was that awkward?

[ Lily laughing ]

Lily: Uh, yeah. A little. But I mean, we broke up months ago and, you know, I’m entitled to my own personal life too.

Daniel: Sure. Sure you are. But, you know, I couldn’t help notice that you were avoiding eye contact with him.

Lily: Yeah. Well, I mean, maybe the timing wasn’t ideal.

[ Laughs ]

Daniel: Look, everyone’s got complicated feelings when it comes to their exes, but, you know, you’ve been so generous listening to me talk about heather, and now losing my mom that I just– why don’t you let me repay the favor by listening to whatever you have to say about billy.

Lily: Well, thank you. But I mean, how long have you known me?

Daniel: Really? Um… many, many years. I– I don’t know. Too many to count.

Lily: Right. And how many times have I, you know, wallowed over a failed relationship?

Daniel: I can’t think of any.

Lily: Yeah. I just, I– I don’t do it. You know, even with kane. It’s like, that hurt a lot but, you know, I was back on my feet in no time.

Daniel: I don’t know how you do it. You know, you’re not the love him and leave him type. You– you get in a relationship and you’re committed and you’re caring.

Lily: I don’t know. I just, I don’t– I don’t like looking back. I wanna look forward. And I think it has a lot to do with being a cancer survivor. You know, when you go through something like that, you realize that life is way too precious to get bogged down by a failed relationship.

Daniel: Are you insinuating that I should be more like that?

Lily: [ Laughs ] No, I mean, you’re different. You– you wanna know why something didn’t work. You know, you need to analyze all the details. Like, I– that’s not me. Like, we’re just, we’re different that way.

Daniel: Maybe that’s why we get along so well.

Lily: Yes. Maybe.

[ Daniel chuckling ]

Daniel: Can you, um, can you do me a favor though?

Lily: Oh, god. What?

[ Laughing ]

Daniel: Can you wallow just a little bit? You know, just for me. Just give me something. Anything.

[ Lily laughing ]

Lily: What?

Billy: I guess I’m relieved if lily’s moving on with– with daniel. You know, she deserves more than I could give her in the end and uh, I hope that’s what she’s looking for.

Chelsea: Look at you. That healthy attitude of growth and maturity.

Billy: Pretty impressive, isn’t it? I’m just simply taking a page out of your book, you know? You– you seem to have really good relationships with your exes.

Chelsea: Except when I went off the deep end over adam and sharon.

Billy: You had a stroke. I would chalk that up to a severe medical issue.

Chelsea: Oh, that’s generous. But the rough patch I went through definitely lasted longer than I care to admit.

Billy: But you came out the other side. I mean, look what you’ve overcome. And I see a fully realized beautiful woman in front of me that deserves happiness.

Chelsea: Well, you make me happy.

Billy: Back at you. You know, I guess that’s why I’m– I’m okay with lily and daniel because it allows me to move on as well.

Chelsea: And is that what you’re doing?

Billy: Pretty sure I am. Yeah.

Chelsea: You know, conner is spending the night tonight at the ranch.

Billy: Is that right?

Chelsea: I can’t believe I just said that out loud.

Billy: Yeah, you did say that out loud, but you can’t take it back now.

Chelsea: I don’t wanna take it back. I’m feeling very strong emotionally, mentally.

Billy: But?

Chelsea: But it’s been a long time since I’ve been with someone.

Billy: It’ll be okay. It’s like riding a bike.

[ Chelsea laughing ] Tv: Try tide power pods with 85% more tide in every pod.

Lily: Look, I don’t think about billy. You know, we had a moment and it was beautiful, but it’s over. So, I am here with you now. Very present.

[ Laughing ]

Daniel: Still no regrets?

Lily: What? Of course not. No. What happened with us was organic and natural. You know, it’s funny ’cause I feel like we’ve known each other for a very long time, since we were teenagers and we have always managed to navigate all the twists and turns of our relationship and I hope that continues. Whatever is meant to happen will happen. And you know, with billy, I mean, if we’re meant to be friends, then we will be. And if we’re not, then we won’T.

Daniel: That is very zen for a ceo.

Lily: Yeah. I may continue to surprise you.

[ Both laughing ]

Billy: You know what? I just realized that I forgot the food downstairs. Can I– can I go get it?

Chelsea: Don’t you dare.

Billy: No? You’re right.

Chelsea: Mm-hmm.

Billy: That’s a stupid question.

Chelsea: Mm-hmm.

Billy: But I am gonna ask you one more time.

Chelsea: I am.

Billy: Are you sure you’re okay?

Chelsea: Yeah.

Billy: I can ask another way, you know.

Chelsea: No. I’ve never been so sure.

[ Chelsea panting ]

Kyle: Summer? You don’t have to open the door or say anything. I know you can hear me. I’m not gonna let you push me away. I’m worried about you and I wanna make it easier for you. I don’t know how yet, but you need to know I’m not going anywhere. I’m gonna keep trying until something works. So, my latest idea is this: But talking but to– together. I– I– I promise you, if you open this door, we don’t have to say a word. I just wanna hold you. Summer, please open the door.

Ashley: I am so sick and tired of you trying to kick me out of my own home. And you’ve been doing this ever since you got back with diane and it’s just more evidence of how she has infected your attitude towards this whole family.

Jack: You are the one who has instigated all conflict, both with and about diane, all because I wouldn’t give into your preposterous demand that I ban the woman I love from this house. That’s not going to change. The minute diane is released, she’s coming back here.

Ashley: Are you threatening me? ‘Cause I’m not going anywhere. This is my home too, jack. It’s my birthright just as much as it is yours.

Jack: This is untenable, ash. This is not gonna work.

Ashley: Then you better move out. Why don’t you find yourself a nice little house next to whatever prison that diane is sent to once she’s convicted? And once that happens, I’m sure the jabot board will remove you before you take the entire company down with you. So yeah, you’re gonna have your nice little jailhouse wedding, but diane’s gonna cost you everything that ever meant anything to you.

THIS STILL NEEDS EXTENSIVE EDITING!

okay, I think that we’ve got the entrées covered. I just hope we have enough appetizers.

Are there 50 more guests coming that I don’t know about?

[Laughs]

We can always order pizza.

Ah! Bite your tongue. If you weren’t the groom, I would throttle you right now.

Okay, hey, hey.

Why aren’t you dressed?

The same reason you’re not dressed. The wedding’s not for hours.

Yeah, but I’m cooking.

Okay, I will do you a favor. I will stay out of the kitchen. But there has to be something else I can do to help get ready.

You’re supporting willow. That’s more important than anything. So how is she?

She’s sleeping soundly, and so is amelia. How are you?

Just trying to be cool, pretending to be checking his work on his phone.

Michael, you’re not working.

No, no, no, I just had to make sure that a project was on track for later. Putting it away now. Besides, I am getting married today.

[Laughter]

You are.

All right. I’m gonna head down to the gatehouse soon, help willow get her things ready when she wakes up. And it’s tradition, remember? I was the one who helped her get ready the last time she married you.

Oh, yeah.

That’s right, you did. And she looked lovely then, and she’s gonna look lovely today.

She’s gonna blow you away, michael. Just wait till you see her.

Oh, I bet. I can’t wait to see my beautiful bride.

Moll, what did dr. Navarro say?

It’s highly likely that I have endometriosis.

How likely?

It’s an unofficial diagnosis. We won’t know for sure until the results of the biopsy are back.

Oh, a biopsy.

[Dramatic music]

Mother, I’m not gonna disappear. I’m not even wearing a parachute.

You’re gonna have to indulge me. I searched the globe looking for you. And now you’re next to me. I’m not letting go.

Hey, I appreciate the save.

Mm. Much though I hate to admit it, tracy is the one who saved the day.

I still can’t get over you showing up at a black market auction dressed in all white. You do have a flair for the dramatic, don’t you?

Well, wardrobe critique aside, I couldn’t very well let luke’s son get executed. Although, I didn’t expect to spend that much money to save him. What was holly thinking driving the price up to 10 million?

You only paid 4.

It should have been 2.

Well, I think it’s incredibly kind of you to save luke’s son, no matter what the price.

That’s easy for you to say. But to tell the truth, I only got involved because victor cassadine was behind the auction, and I will not rest until I prove that man killed luke.

Any news on your father?

You mean have I had any updates in the five minutes it took me to get this cup of coffee?

Yes, that’s what I mean.

No.

Oh. I can’t just lie here, do nothing.

Look, take it easy, will you? You just got out of the icu. Doesn’t mean you’re ready for dancing.

[Machine beeping]

I’d settle for a little walk.

Look, I know how frustrated you are.

So frustrated.

Your job is to heal. Victor will be caught, and he’ll be dealt with.

Really? Haven’t we been saying that for the last six months?

Okay, but now he’s overreaching. He’s getting close to his goal, and he’s overconfident. He’s making mistakes-

letting me live, for one, and kidnapping laura’s grandsons for another.

I think we’re making some pretty big jumps. Just because victor wanted information on project demeter doesn’t mean-

it’s not a guarantee that he’s headed for the spot right here on the map.

Robert, thank god you’re here.

I pulled in to see anna. What’s happening?

We have a lead on victor.

Show me.

Yeah, so this is a map I think my seal team used when we were working on project demeter.

Demeter, demeter… victor was interested in that.

Exactly.

Well, what are all these locations?

We’re not sure, but we think they’re connected to mikkos cassadine.

Look at that one right there. You recognize that?

1981. [Chuckles] A good year for stopping mikkos.

Right, and then that’s cassadine island right there. So I think it stands to reason that all of these different sites are somehow related to the cassadines, right?

But why are they spread out? There’s no logic in that.

Trina was able to provide us with the heading from the haunted star. If we combine that heading with this map of circled locations, there’s one shared point.

It’s that island right there, right off the coast of greenland. That’s where we think victor is headed.

It’s a long shot, but that’s all we’ve got.

He’s a cunning bastard. I think I’ve figured out how to find them.

[Dramatic music]

Let me guess. Valentin?

He’s not answering my calls. And now his voicemail is full, probably from all the messages that I’ve left already or from members of the board with whom I’m in constant contact with.

Sorry, dad. I know valentin’s at the hospital. Maybe I could head over there, ask him to give you a call?

No, it’s not your responsibility. It’s his responsibility. Elq’s stock has taken a major hit, and our ceo is mia. Michael and drew were right. Only a quartermaine will truly make elq a priority, and only a quartermaine should run elq.

Is it drew?

No.

Oh, ned. He wants to talk about elq. You’ll have to call him back eventually, you know?

Yes, I will, but not right now. I’m trying to stay focused. I’m racking my brain. What my father told me about his master plan, I just wish we’d cracked the code.

[Knock on door]

Hi. I’m so sorry to bother you. How are you feeling, anna?

Yeah, I’m actually feeling better, you know? Are you all right?

Since the demented man that has my daughter is your father, I’d like you to tell me everything that you know about victor cassadine.

Anna and I always suspected that luke’s death wasn’t an accident. But how did you find out?

The longer I lived with it, the less sense it made. Luke spencer dying in a random accident, in switzerland of all places. What was he doing there? Certainly not there for the chocolate or for the skiing. He used to go to switzerland, zurich, do his banking, and get out. So I went to see that twit jennifer smith in prison. Something about her having the ice princess diamond just didn’t add up. She’s a schemer, but she’s a nincompoop. Certainly couldn’t mastermind a theft from luke spencer. So when I looked her straight in her vapid eyes and she told me she’d been framed, I knew she was telling me the truth.

The wsb just wanted to tie it all up. As far as they were concerned, they got the diamond back. Case solved, except it wasn’T.

Too bad nobody ever bothered to tell me, luke’s widow.

[Stammers] We thought you were getting on with your life. We didn’t have actual proof.

No, you didn’t want me in on it. You wanted to do it your way. And meanwhile, I spent 14 months trying to prove that luke has been murdered by myself.

Oh, tracy, luke wouldn’t want that.

If the site belongs to the cassadines, wouldn’t victor already know about it? I…

yes.

We’ve been assuming that the code etched into the diamond has been a set of coordinates. But what if it’s completely unrelated?

The best information we got is the heading from trina. And that site in greenland is directly on that heading.

You know, we have so many pieces of this puzzle, but we’re missing that one crucial piece that just brings it all together.

Robert.

Hey, did your contact help?

Satellite imagery has a ship parked in the cove there just off greenland. Interesting point is there’s not supposed to be anything there. But there was a research station back in the ’50s, and then they abandoned it. What’s even more interesting is that the ship is running in the dark, no transponders.

That’s it. That’s the haunted star.

We got them. We got victor.

Okay, how soon can you get the wsb there?

Well, I can’T. There’s a problem.

Well, the way dr. Navarro explained it, endometriosis develops when the tissues that usually line the inside of the uterus grow on the outside of the uterus. They’re usually non-cancerous, but these growths can cause painful periods, which I have definitely experienced.

And how long has this been going on?

I don’t know, a few months maybe. But mom, I mean, remember, I’ve always had bad cramps. But lately they’ve just gotten more and more intense.

Sweetie, you have to take your health seriously, all right. You can’t get so wrapped up with work that you put self-care on the back burner.

Yeah, I wonder who I inherited that from. I seem to recall you not necessarily leaping to get your bone density checked.

Okay, okay, we’re not doing tit for tat right now. Do as I say, not as I do.

Yeah. I hear you, mom. It took me a while to realize that each month was getting worse. And honestly, when we decided to have a baby, I was looking forward to getting pregnant right away so that I wouldn’t have any periods at all.

You’d have a whole lot of other things.

Yeah, well, it didn’t happen, so I’m back to dealing with this.

Is there a treatment?

Dr. Navarro says usually hormone therapy is prescribed.

Okay, so that’s bad because…

the hormone is estrogen.

The treatment stops ovulation, mom, which means I wouldn’t be able to get pregnant.

We were told that trina made contact. Yeah?

Yes, yes, she found a satellite phone. And she was able to relay the ship’s heading.

Your daughter is a very brave woman.

I would rather her be cowardly and safe at home. And I’m sure you can imagine how terrified I am right now not knowing what’s going on with her, whether she’s safe, whether they found her or not. What about jordan? Has she reached out to you at all, or maybe your agency?

No. Sorry, there’s been no updates on victor’s whereabouts. Listen, I really understand how you’re feeling, ’cause I’ve been in your position.

I have too. And if we hear anything, we will tell you directly. You have my word.

[Tense music]

What?

It’s ned again.

I think that you really need to take that call.

Okay. I will. I’ll be back in a minute.

Dr. Robinson-

anna, please, please, I’m here as-

as a mom right now, not as a doctor, a mother who’s very terrified for her child. And I hate to ask you this right now, but I need to know, how much danger is my daughter really in?

Is victor cassadine, is he-

is he capable of harming trina?

I’m sorry I took so long to get to you.

I’m sorry victor used me to make you do his bidding. You were in prison too. Besides, the mess was entirely of my own making. I should have seen victor’s men coming.

It seemed there were quite a few participants at that digital auction. You had quite a following, none of whom were admirers.

You know me. Rob from the rich and give to the poor, plus a small commission for personal expenses. The poor are fine with the arrangement. But the rich tend to be sore losers.

Any particular charities you are benefiting these days?

A couple of orphanages and a wildlife sanctuary in zimbabwe. I’ve been out of commission for a while, so they’re definitely gonna need some funding.

Befo re you go running backto monte carlo or wherever, you’re going to need some time to recuperate. Please reconsider.

I’m sorry, mom. I can’t stay with you in port charles. Too many people after me. It’s best that I continue to australia, where I know the players, who’s got deep pockets, and equally important, who not to cross. I need an influx of cash to continue my charity work and pay off a couple of the bastards who want to kill me.

I don’t suppose there’s any point at all in asking you to be careful.

I will if you will.

Who are you to tell me what luke spencer would or wouldn’t want for me?

I’m his friend, someone who knew him and knows that he genuinely loved you, tracy. And he wouldn’t want you spending your time and your money trying to avenge him. I think it’s good that you’re coming back to port charles. You need your family around you right now.

[Laughing] Have you met my family?

Valentin, you really are alive. I was starting to wonder.

Ned, knock it off. What do you want?

Need I remind you that since you are not dead, you’re still the ceo of elq.

Yeah, I have other priorities at the moment.

Did you even listen to the messages that I left you?

No. Listen. Anna has been in the icu. She’s been fighting for her life. You’re the chairman of the board. I figured you could handle anything that comes up.

I have been for months. But that was when you were dead. Now you’re very much alive. Is it too much to ask to put out a statement? The shareholders, the board members, the general public are all very curious as to why you pulled that stunt.

Okay, it wasn’t a stunt. My daughter’s life was in danger. Victor cassadine had to be stopped.

Yes, let’s talk about your father, who I understand is now a wanted man. Not a good look on the heels of your disappearance. No one understands what the hell is going on, let alone our ceo’s involvement in it. Look, from our shareholders’ perspective, you have perpetuated a major fraud.

My attorney will be handling that.

Cut the crap, valentin. You need to step up and do your damn job.

Wherever you go, you have to keep in touch. No disappearing off the face of the earth this time.

Hey, that goes for you too. Look. Victor knows you weren’t really burned in that fire you and robert staged. He knows you tricked him. He’s not likely to forget.

Good.

Satisfying though it may be to know you got the best of a megalomaniac, is going back really good idea? I mean, is there anything left in port charles for you now?

I realize how frustrating this is.

The wsb won’t act because of jurisdictional issues?

When has that ever stopped them before, robert?

There must be someone you can call, robert.

It’s all about the increased scrutiny on intelligence agencies that we have to put up with these days.

You said there was nothing on that island. What difference does it make what nation it belongs to?

Look, four innocent people have been kidnapped, and one of them is an infant.

And another is a bone marrow donor for a woman with stage four leukemia.

Exactly. I just don’t see how anyone could object to sending out a rescue team under these circumstances.

Nobody hates red tape more than I do, and I’m doing my best to plow through it, but it just takes a bit of time.

They don’t have time.

And neither do I. The hell with the wsb. I’m getting our families home now.

that you could never get pregnant?

No.

The hormone therapy is not permanent. Once molly stops taking the medication, ovulation will resume. And that’s probably why dr. Navarro wanted to wait. Until we know exactly what we’re dealing with, it’s all speculation. And worst case scenario, baby, this might be a speed bump, not a dead end.

But what if it is? I mean, I’ve already done a search on endometriosis. I know that it can cause infertility.

In some cases, definitely not all.

Right. Okay. I know you’re right. We just need more answers. You know what? I’m gonna note some questions. I’ll do research and ask dr. Navarro also.

[Tense music]

Hey, there’s an er patient I needed to check in on. Will you be okay for just a bit?

I got this.

Yeah, sure, go.

Okay. It won’t be long.

I’ll be okay. I need to check my messages. I’m waiting on discovery for a case.

Okay.

Talk to me.

I’m just being irrational.

You’ve got nothing-

possibly. You know, feelings are not always rational. Tell me how you really feel.

[Crying] I feel like I just got told that I’ll never be a mom.

[Sighing] Oh, baby.

I’m just realizing what a ridiculous question that was for me to ask. I’m asking the woman who victor cassadine shot if he’s capable of harming someone. Oh, trina. I’m sorry. I really don’t know what I was thinking. I’m so sorry.

You’re not thinking. You’re feeling helpless, aren’t you? Because your child’s in danger.

[Machine beeping] And I’m feeling useless because I can’t be out there to help bring trina and spencer and ace back safely.

Well, don’t even think about getting out of that bed, ’cause that’s not happening. As much as I would love for you to be out there leading the charge.

I’ve been told I can’T. You’re not gonna get any answers out of these agencies. You know, they’re just-

they have to be really careful about the information that they put out there. But I’m gonna be very straight with you. Victor is ruthless. He hates me, but he is very smart. And he knows that trina is his leverage over spencer. So he’s not going to hurt her. You see, because then he would lose spencer.

Okay, but see, what I’ve heard about victor, I mean, does he really care about his family?

I believe he does. He could have killed valentin, but he didn’T. He went for me, and he let his son live.

Portia, there are some very good people out there on that man’s trail. And we’re gonna get a break soon. I feel that.

I pray that you’re right. And I pray that they find victor. But I’m also getting the feeling like it might be too late.

Ned, I’m not gonna get into it right now, but there’s more at stake than elq stock.

My point exactly. If our stock doesn’t rebound, there are real world consequences for our employees. It’s our responsibility to protect not only our shareholders, but our employees’ livelihoods.

Okay, ned, what do you want?

I want you to either get back to work or step down so I can officially take over.

Ned, that’s not gonna happen. I am not stepping down. Once my father’s been apprehended, I will recommit to elq. In the meantime, I trust you can handle whatever might come up. Goodbye, ned.

Valentin, valentin!

[Dramatic music] Unbelievable.

Thank you, we’ll be there. Okay. We’ve got a charter plane fueled up and ready to go. I’ve got a helicopter coming here in less than an hour. We can use the helipad on the roof.

Oh, that’s great. That gives me just enough time to get home, update the family, and then get what I need.

Right, and for me to check in at the club.

Yeah, I have to check in with kevin too.

I’m in.

No, no. You’ve got to stay here and keep putting pressure on the wsb to act quickly.

I can do that anywhere.

No, you can’T. Listen, my friend, you and anna and valentin are the only ones who are going to know exactly what’s going on. So I need you here as backup.

Laura-

listen, this is the right way to do it. You know that.

Stay in touch.

Okay. Lean on the wsb. Okay? Meet me back here in less than an hour.

You got it.

I am gonna head to the club and brief n’neka and retrieve a little something.

Yeah, you do that. And what about portia?

Yeah, I’ll see portia before I go. She’s still upstairs in her office trying to distract herself with work.

Well, I’m sure she’s gonna appreciate the fact that we finally have a lead.

Yeah.

How many roses did you get?

Enough to fill the baskets, of course.

I can’t believe we were able to pry these baskets away from donna and avery. Donna has been practicing nonstop. She can’t wait for avery to get here so they can practice together.

Oh, that is adorable.

And donna insists that her big brother deserves the best flower girls ever.

[Laughter]

I really appreciate how hard the whole family’s working to make this day so special for willow.

And you, michael. We all love you for some reason.

[Laughter]

I know, I’m just being stupid.

Stupid? My daughter? Impossible. Honey, it’s very normal to be upset when you think something’s not right with your body, and especially if it’s something that you were counting on that you might not be able to do, like get pregnant. It’s very upsetting.

I mean, logically, I know that I could still be a mom even if I am infertile. Being a parent is so much more than just biology.

Absolutely. But we’re also getting ahead of ourselves here, right? We don’t even know if you have endometriosis until the biopsy comes back, yes?

Dr. Navarro seemed pretty certain. And I have all of the classic symptoms.

One step at a time.

Right.

And stop looking-

I’m taking this. Do not look at the internet to get your medical information. It’s just gonna leave you terrified.

I know, but mom, sitting around and waiting is just not in my dna.

I know, it’s not mine either. I’d be all over this thing, looking and trying to face the worst news head on.

Yeah, exactly. Knowledge is power.

So they say.

Yes, petite, she’s doing a lot better. Oh, you know what? I’m gonna let you go. I’ll give anna your well wishes. I love you too. What’s going on? What happened?

We think we know where victor is.

Where?

A small island off the coast of greenland.

Greenland? What’s in greenland?

According to the satellite, the haunted star and nothing else. But robert thinks that there was some kind of a lab there that was abandoned in the ’50s.

Mikkos preferred his underground bunkers. They were easier to conceal.

Okay, do you remember anything about a cassadine holding in greenland?

No, not at all.

Okay, well, I guess I’m about to find out. I am leaving with curtis and drew in less than an hour.

I’m going with you.

Oh, good. Great.

No, wait. I can’t do that.

Okay, I understand. Anna needs you. I’ll keep you updated as much as I can.

Laura, good luck.

[Dramatic music]

Look, the situation is critical. I need the director to authorize an operation now. Okay? It’s critical. I’ll be waiting for the call.

Robert, someone bothering you?

Not for long.

I’m sensing this is a bad time.

No, no, no, no, please. Come in. I’m waiting for a call. I can’t do anything. So what brings you by?

Well, I was at an arraignment. And I was on my way out when I heard your dulcet tones. So I’m glad I ran into you.

Wait, wait. Well, you didn’t really run into me. You came to me.

That’s absolutely-

that’s absolutely true. That’s actually true because I have something for you.

Oh, my day is about to look up.

[Both chuckling] Well, what do we got here?

That’s my dry cleaning bill.

I have unfinished business in port charles.

Good or bad?

That’s yet to be determined. Are you–are you up for a few questions?

Go ahead.

When you were victor’s prisoner, did he ever mention what he was up to, anything about his organization?

Well, I was there so long, the guards did get rather comfortable with me. They talked in front of me more than they probably should have.

Tell me everything.

Glad to be the catalyst of such mirth.

Do you really think that I would go running home to the bosom of my family to be embraced and comforted? My family doesn’t do team sympathy. We should have “survival of the fittest” engraved on our family crest. But it makes us sharp and strong. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Ned.

Shall I pour you a drink?

No, I’m okay. Maybe later. So were you finally able to reach valentin?

For all the good it did.

I’m sorry, ned. Look, I wish I could pitch in or strategize with you.

No, no, no, no, you need to focus on your family. I’ll handle elq.

I appreciate you understanding. Look, at the end of the day, we both want elq to thrive, despite whatever our differences may be.

Maybe we aren’t so different after all.

How’s that?

Look, today is not the day to talk business. But one day soon, I’d like to sit down with you and drew, talk about elq. It might be time for some changes.

Hi, guys.

Hey.

Michael, is willow around?

She’s at the gatehouse, resting.

Oh, okay. I need to speak to her. Obviously, I don’t want to disturb her, but-

what’s up?

What’s going on?

I can’t walk willow down the aisle today.

What’s this?

Why not?

We got a lead on the haunted star.

You found liesl?

I think so. I mean, I hope so. Curtis, laura, and I, we’re headed there right now.

Drew, “thank you” doesn’t even seem like enough. I know you can handle yourself, but you’re also putting yourself on the line.

Are you kidding? This has to be done. You don’t have to thank me. You know I would do anything in my power to rescue those hostages from victor and get liesl back here.

I just pray it’s soon.

Are you in any pain now?

No, mom. I’m okay right now. But I mean, ask me again in a month, and I will be curled up in the fetal position.

[Sighs] You know what really burns me up?

What?

Even though I’ve been experiencing some of the symptoms for a while, I never thought anything serious could be wrong with me. I mean, I’ve always been so healthy. I’m a vegetarian. I drink plenty of water. I exercise when I can. God, I mean, how could I be so foolish? Why did I put this off for so long?

Molly. Molly, don’t do that now. What’s the point, right? The good news is you’re getting it checked out now. I mean, women way too often put their health on the back burner. You know that whatever happens, your sisters and i are here for you.

I never doubted it.

That’s all I know. I hope it helps.

You’ve given me a better idea of what victor’s up to.

Passengers, we are making our final approach to port charles airport. Please fasten your seatbelts and secure your carry-on items.

I want more time with you.

This is just goodbye for now. Buckle up, mom.

Bill?

Let’s go back, shall we? Hold your finger right there while I start the engine. Next thing you know, motor oil all over me and my beautiful suit.

It was an accident.

Uh-huh, uh-huh. Vosburg versus putney, the offending party assumes all risk for the party affected.

Okay, I’ll pay the bill. Just don’t sue me.

[Laughs] Thank you.

Look, once again, I apologize for the evening’s disaster.

[Tense music] Yeah, who am I kidding? Come on, you’d look great wearing a paper bag.

Well, let’s not test that theory, shall we? No, w–no.

What do you mean no?

No, no. I don’t want you to kiss me like this. Well, as I recall, it didn’t end too badly.

You know, every guy really wants to hear something like that.

Of course, there’s always room for improvement.

Ah. Practice makes perfect.

Hey, how did things go with dr. Robinson?

Uh, well, I tried to convince her that victor wouldn’t hurt trina because she’s his leverage over spencer.

Did she believe that?

She wants to. I think she’s really trying to.

Do we believe that?

I don’t know. I wish–I wish I had more confidence that we were gonna pick up his trail.

Then you’ll be glad to know the haunted star has been located. Laura, chris, and drew are gearing up to go after victor as we speak.

That’s good. What about you?

[Dramatic music]

I know where I should be.

So do I.

I will bring trina home. That is a promise.

Hey.

Have everything you need?

I do.

Well, where are you going? Can you tell me?

I’m going to an island off the coast of greenland.

I wish you didn’t have to go. I’m grateful because I know willow’s life depends on it.

Michael and willow are my family.

Please be careful. Please.

I’ll see you soon.

Please come back.

I’m gonna come back.

Everything okay?

Everything’s okay. And now that you’re back, I’m gonna leave.

Thank you again, mom.

I’m here for you.

[Soft music] And you.

Thank you.

You’re looking better. Good talk?

Yeah. How’s your “patient”?

Oh, I see definite improvement.

[Both laughing]

Well, hey, thank you for giving my mom and me some time to talk. It really helped.

We’ll get through this together, moll.

I know. I’m glad you’re back. I mean, my mom was definitely comforting, but she can’t do this.

[Knock on door]

[Dramatic music]

There’s one lesson in business that I’ve been slow to learn: Work can’t love you back. You figured that out before I did, and I admire you for it.

Yeah, well, don’t give me too much credit, because willow was the one who set my priorities straight.

Hey. Wow, those baskets look great.

Yeah.

[Laughs]

That’s nice to see.

How about that? It just goes to show you, family really is about coming together, celebrating the good times and comforting each other through the bad.

Today’s a little bit of both.

But we’re not gonna cry. There’s not gonna be any tears, right? Because you heard drew. I mean, he’s gonna find liesl, willow is gonna have her bone marrow transplant, and before you know it, we’re gonna be celebrating michael and willow’s 10-year anniversary.

Hear, hear. Hear, hear.

I like the sound of that. You know what? And this family is gonna be stronger because this family’s bonds are unbreakable, no matter what life throws at us.

[Door slams]

What was that?

What on earth was monica thinking planting daffodils all the way up the drive? It looks like the easter bunny threw up out there. Thank god I am home to put things to rights.

[Dramatic music]

Helicopter is 10 minutes out. We should really go up to the roof. I just hope to god that victor doesn’t find what he’s looking for and leave before you even have a chance to get there.

Well, we can’t think like that, okay? Our mission is to rescue trina, spencer, ace, and liesl, and that’s what we’re gonna do.

Amen to that. You got everything you need? Hi.

Yeah, I did. Is that bag what I think it is?

I’m just happy we’re not going through airport security.

Me too.

So how long is this flight?

About seven hours, plenty of time for us to go over everything and know what we’re gonna do when we hit the ground.

Perfect.

Okay.

I changed my mind. Is it too late to hitch a ride?

[ Brooke laughs ]

Rj: Aw, nice. Look at us.

Brooke: Look at us. Rj, I– I still can’t believe you’re here.

Rj: The look on your face when you saw me… priceless.

Ridge: It was good.

Rj: Hey, don’t you laugh too hard. I got you too.

Ridge: You know what? Your surprise was so good, you almost didn’t make it in the building.

Rj: Almost. Keyword almost. All right? Ridge forrester jr. Always finds a way.

Ridge: Apparently, he does. Yes.

Brooke: Okay. You know what? You can play a trick like that on me anytime you want as long as it means you’re home, okay?

Thomas: Sorry, mom. Just… just one more second. When inspiration hits, you know?

Taylor: Oh, no, I do. I do know actually. You know, inspiration always used to hit your dad when we were just sitting down for dinner. So, I always… always kept extra napkins laying around so he could sketch on ’em.

Thomas: Yeah. Yeah. No, I remember. Um, okay. Sorry. Uh, what’s up?

Taylor: Um, it’s kind of annoying. I stopped by to really just see how things are going with hope.

Thomas: With hope?

Taylor: Yeah.

Thomas: They’re great.

Taylor: Okay. So, I have to ask. No urges or desire?

Thomas: That’s a very weird conversation to have with my mother.

Taylor: That’s a very fair conversation considering everybody’s worried. So…

Thomas: Okay. Mom, I– I promise I’m not having any urges or desires. Okay.

[ Laughs ] I– I’m not gonna try and manipulate anyone or force you and dad together. I– I honestly, I just wanna be the best designer I possibly can and I wanna prove to everybody that they can trust me, especially you.

Taylor: Oh. You don’t need to prove anything to me. I– I’m not the one, you know. I wouldn’t have backed you if I didn’t trust you. You know that, right?

Thomas: Yeah. I– I appreciate that. Thank you. I’m great.

Taylor: I know you are. You’ve done a lot of work on yourself and it’s all paying off, and I’m very proud of you. So is your dad.

Thomas: Aw. Thanks, mom.

Taylor: Yeah.

[ Taylor laughs ]

Thomas: I get it. I get it. Look, I’ve made strides before forward and then I fall back and I appreciate you looking out for me.

Taylor: Yeah. Look, you’ve– you are working harder than you’ve ever worked before and it shows, you know. But doesn’t mean that it’s not challenging working with hope day in and day out ’cause you’ve loved her for a long time.

Thomas: It’s not challenging. Yes, I do love hope. I still do ’cause she’s my friend, right? We’re coworkers. Co-parents. She’s a great person, right? But– but I’m not pursuing her in any way. I– I– I don’t want to be with her. I– I know she doesn’t want to be with me–

Taylor: I know, I know.

Thomas: And she’s with liam. And I respect their relationship and I will never, ever do anything to break them apart.

Taylor: Okay. Okay. I’m sorry I asked. I get it. I love you. Have I told you how proud I am of you?

Thomas: You just did, but it’s okay. You can tell me again ’cause I really like hearing it.

Taylor: Oh, my god. I am so proud of you.

Thomas: Thank you so much.

Taylor: Oh, my god. Sorry to just bombard you with all the questions.

[ Taylor laughs ]

Hope: Hi. Hi, taylor. Hi. I was actually– I was just about to go over some designs with thomas.

Taylor: Oh.

Ridge: Are you ever not on that thing?

Brooke: Ridge!

Ridge: What?

Rj: Check it out.

Ridge: That’s us. You uploaded the picture of us.

Rj: Yep.

Ridge: That’s got 3,000 likes already.

Rj: Yep.

Ridge: And this… you get paid for this?

Rj: Yes.

Ridge: Wow. Well, enjoy it.

Rj: Mom, I almost forgot. I come bearing gifts.

Brooke: Oh, you got me something?

Rj: Oh, yeah.

Brooke: Oh, chocolates.

Rj: Not just any old chocolates. It’s chocolates from switzerland.

Brooke: Chocolates from switzerland? I can’t believe this. Thank you, sweetie. Wait. Wait. When were you in switzerland?

Ridge: Boy gets around.

Rj: You know, it’s great seeing you two so happy. I know you guys have been through a lot lately.

Ridge: It’s an understatement.

Brooke: Yeah. But things are better now.

Rj: Yeah. I’m happy to hear it. How are all my brothers and sisters doing?

Brooke: They’re great. Bridget is in new york working at the hospital and rick’s still at international.

Rj: I know. We linked up in paris.

Brooke: Yeah, that’s right. And hope, she’s doing fabulous with her family, liam and the kids. And oh my gosh, her line, hope for the future is going crazy. It’s so successful.

Rj: I’ve– I’ve been keeping up with the latest and its fire. I gotta admit.

Brooke: Yeah.

Rj: Dad, how’s steffy?

Ridge: Steffy’s good. I mean, you know her. Force of nature, she’s got kids and a husband, a house and she’s running this company with me. It’s all effortless with her.

Rj: Yeah. Well, I’m glad that her and finn can finally put the whole sheila nightmare behind them. We all finally can, which is good.

Brooke: Hm.

Ridge: Didn’t ask about thomas. Didn’t ask about your brother.

Rj: Yeah. How– how is my big brother?

Ridge: He’s good. He’s doing really well. Have you spoken to him?

Rj: Um, no. Not in a while.

Ridge: Huh. But would you say that things are okay between the two of you? I’m steve, I lost 138 pounds in nine months on golo

Thomas: Okay. So this is what’s so amazing about lace, right? And– and keeping with the boho design. But you put it in there sort of as a base and then you can add something else on top of it like– like leather.

Hope: To give it a little edge.

Thomas: Exactly.

Hope: I like it. And we could also play with the colors and use the leather to create kind of a richer, darker tone, but then use the lace to soften it up.

Thomas: Like taking both worlds and bringing them together.

Taylor: You know what, kind of like the two of you. You know, I’ve– I’ve– I’ve never seen you guys so creatively in sync and it’s– it’s pretty cool. I’m– I’m sorry that liam is not okay with this, you know?

Hope: Oh, you know, hopefully, he gets used to it because we are co-workers.

Taylor: Yeah, of course. And god, he– he has no reason to be concerned anymore.

Thomas: Yeah. And that may be true, but he has every reason to be skeptical of me. I mean, I’ve– I’ve done some pretty horrible things in the past and hurt their relationship and I never want that to happen again. And I promise that I will, moving forward, you know, win him over. Are you okay?

Hope: Yeah. Yeah. It’s just everything is, I don’t know. We’re finally coming together with douglas, with hope for the future. And heck, I mean, even our moms are besties now.

Taylor: Yeah.

Thomas: I don’t– I didn’t see that coming.

Taylor: Yeah. Nope. Neither did I.

Thomas: I don’t think anyone could have.

Taylor: No. No. Look, brooke and I will always care about ridge. We really will. But you know, it’s– we have families with him, but it’s– it’s nice just to be done with all the drama.

Thomas: It is. You know, and dad, he wants the best for everyone honestly. I think that he really respects your friendship with brooke and I don’t know, he wants– he wants this family to be great. This– this very big, very weird and complicated family.

Rj: What’s my relationship like with my brother?

Ridge: Yeah. That’s the question.

Brooke: We understand if things are a bit complicated between you and thomas.

Rj: Complicated… it’s just what he did was messed up. Making that call to cps pretending to be mom. I’m not gonna lie, it hurt when you two got separated, but I can’t get caught up in all the family drama. I just can’T. I’ve watched my brothers and sisters go at it against each other just too many times. The whole forrester-logan rivalry, it isn’t fun, especially when you’re a forrester and a logan. And I’m proud to be both. I have great parents and amazing brothers and sisters. We’re all really, really blessed.

Ridge: Could have used your sound mind a few years ago.

Rj: Well, I think I needed to step away to develop it.

Brooke: You’ve really grown up, rj.

Ridge: We’re both proud of you.

Rj: Thank you, dad. I hope I’m not coming across like I don’t care. It’s just, I really don’t wanna get caught up in any of the family drama. It’s one of the reasons why I haven’t been back in so long.

Brooke: Of course. I mean, we understand. We don’t want you to have to feel like you need to pick a side.

Ridge: No, not at all. Family is supposed to help and inspire. It’s not something we should run from.

Rj: I’m not running, dad. I’m just trying to stay focused. You know, I think this whole latest encounter with sheila really proves that our family is much stronger unified than fighting against each other. Hell, if dad and bill can get along, there’s no reason our family can’t, right?

Ridge: Yeah, that’s a good point. Um, we’ve been doing pretty well.

Brooke: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Pretty well. It’s even better now though, right? Now that he’s back home? And I’m not gonna let you leave. I’m not. Okay everyone, our mission is complete balanced nutrition.

Hope: This is the collection so far.

Thomas: I wanted vintage hope for the future to inspire the collection, not– not be a reboot, right?

Hope: No, but showing its growth and development.

Thomas: Yeah. As we all have grown and developed over the time since hope for the future was launched, right? Actually, this one was zende’S.

Taylor: I– I love it. I– I love everything. I really do. I’M… you guys are a– a good team. You– you really are. You collaborate very, very well. I– I bet the bond is strengthened even more from parenting douglas together.

[ Door opens ]

Charlie: Sorry for the intrusion, but you might wanna lap up this grand cru before I spill it. Some might call it news, others might call it gossip.

Hope: What is it?

Charlie: Well, here I am, hard at work when the front desk wakes me– walkies me and says that ridge forrester is trying to get in the building.

Thomas: That’s the news, charlie?

Taylor: What?

Charlie: Well, security said ridge forrester was at the entrance, but ridge forrester was in his office working.

Hope: So someone is pretending to be ridge and trying to break into forrester.

Charlie: Oh, the tale of two ridges is far more complex than that my friends.

Thomas.: Can you get to the point?

Charlie: Well, the ridge at the front entrance was a real ridge. The ridge in this office was a real ridge. What? Two ridges? Two ridge forresters? How can that be? Well, there was a big ridge and a little ridge. Well, not so little anymore, I guess you’d call–

Hope: Are you talking about rj? Like our rj?

Charlie: Bingo.

Thomas: Why didn’t you just say that in the first place?

Hope: Thomas, our baby brother is home.

Thomas: Yeah.

Ridge: Well, what do you think? You– you just gonna stay for a while or you– you just gonna stay until the next festival kicks off?

Rj: That’s a fair question. But no, I’m not just passing through. I’ve– I’ve– I’ve really missed you guys. I miss being home.

Brooke: Oh, honey. You don’t know how good it makes me feel to hear you say that.

Ridge: So maybe since you’re gonna stay for a while, you could be in the office.

Brooke: Uh, ridge…

Ridge: Yeah. He could work as– as an intern.

Rj: Dad?

Ridge: What?

Rj: What are you doing? You know how I feel about the fashion industry. I–

Ridge: I know, but it’s been a while and maybe now coming back, it– it would be different. You know, you could spend some time with me, with your granddad. We’d just be here and we’d, I don’t know, we’d love to have you.

Rj: I– I appreciate the offer, but I got my own thing going on.

Ridge: Yeah. The– the online stuff.

Rj: Yeah. I mean, that’s stuff, being an influencer, it allows me to travel the world. Collaborate with so many artists. And–

Ridge: I know because you are an artist. We– we– we are artists.

Brooke: Ridge, don’t pressure him. Okay? He’s just finding his–

Ridge: I’m– I’m not! I’m just talking about the sketches you used to make. And they were good. You remember? They were good.

Rj: Dad, thank you. I appreciate it. But come on, isn’t it already busy enough here between you and granddad and hope and steffy? And not to mention thomas and zende are killing it.

Ridge: Just because they’re designers it doesn’t mean that we don’t have room for you. What?

Rj: Dad, I’ve got my own followers. I’m– I’m building my brand. I’m making my own content and it’s–

Ridge: Okay. I know. I– I get that. I’m– I’m hip to all that. But here’s the thing. Wait. Hey, if you’re gonna create some stuff here, you design some stuff here, you could make your brand bigger. Get more followers. You know what I’m saying? Please.

Brooke: Yes, I know what you’re saying, but can you just stop for a second? He just got here.

Ridge: I know.

Brooke: Look, he’s– he’s here. I don’t wanna scare him away, ridge. Stop. I really missed you so much. I did. I missed you.

Rj: I missed you too. Martial arts is my passion.

Hope: Wait, so rj is here in los angeles?

Charlie: Not just in los angeles, but in the building, mon amie. In fact, he’s in the office de grand fromage with brooke as we speak.

Thomas: Wow. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen rj.

Charlie: Well, he is not such a kid anymore. In fact, he turned out to be quite the handsome jack. Chip off the old block, if you ask me. You can tell tell ridge I said that, okay?

Thomas: Okay.

Charlie: Okay. Well, I will get outta your hair and charlie, will go back to what charlie does best and that is keeping forrester safe from neferocity.

Thomas: It’s not a word, charlie.

Charlie: Oh.

Taylor: This is exciting. Your little brother’s back.

Hope: I know. We– I was actually talking about rj with my mom this morning. I mean, she always misses him, but sometimes it just hits her really hard. So, I am sure that she is thrilled. So I am… I’m gonna go see our brother.

Thomas: Yeah, you go ahead. I’ll catch up.

Hope: Okay.

Thomas: Yeah.

Taylor: Um, okay. Um… why didn’t go with hope to see your brother?

Thomas: ‘Cause I have stuff I have to do right now.

Taylor: Really? Have you talked to rj at all?

Thomas: No. Not in a while.

Taylor: No? Why?

Thomas: Because being at odds with his mom makes for some pretty awkward conversation.

Taylor: Okay. But you’re not at odds anymore, so.

Thomas: He doesn’t know that.

Taylor: Yeah, because you haven’t talked to him in a while. See? See how that works? Come on. It’d be good for you to reconnect with your brother.

Thomas: Do you have to do the psych thing all the time?

Taylor: Do you have to avoid the psych thing all the time? I wanna know how you feel about rj being back.

Thomas: You know, I could ask you the exact same question. How do you feel about the only child that dad and brooke ever had being back?

Rj: So we’re cool, dad?

Ridge: Yeah. I’m just happy you’re home.

Brooke: We both are. And don’t worry, there’s gonna be plenty of time to figure out what you wanna do while you’re back here in la.

Rj: Well, I mean, I know I wanna work on my online brand. But don’t worry, dad, I’m not gonna slack off.

Ridge: I’m not– why do you– no, I know. I’m– I’m not worried about you slacking off. I know how you get when you’re passionate about something. I just don’t want you to forget that you have designer blood running through your veins. That’s all.

Hope: Rj.

Rj: Oh, hey, hope.

Hope: Excuse me. Come here. Come here. Hi. Oh, my gosh. I can’t believe you.

Rj: What?

Hope: When we talked yesterday, you didn’t tell me you were coming home.

Rj: Well, I wanted to surprise you and all of them.

Brooke: And what a wonderful surprise it was.

Hope: Well, you look great.

Rj: Aw, thank you. So do you. Not to mention you have been killing it with hope for the future.

Hope: Ah, yeah. Well, thomas does deserve some of the credit, but what about you? I mean, I’ve been keeping up to date on all your exciting adventures.

Rj: Yeah. It– it’s been amazing, but I, you know, I was ready to come home. I missed everybody, especially you.

Hope: Does this mean you’re going to stay for more than a week?

Brooke: He better be.

Rj: Yes. I… like I was telling mom and dad, I’m gonna be hanging around for a while and my plans are open.

Ridge: That’s what we like to hear.

Hope: Well, you were certainly missed. Right, mom?

Brooke: Yes. So much.

Hope: Oh, my gosh. Look at you. I mean, it feels just like yesterday that we were running around these halls and having dance parties in the showroom after everyone left for the day.

Rj: Yeah. Such are good times.

Hope: Yes, they were. And now we get to have some more. It’s good to have you home, rj.

Rj: It’s good to be home.

Hope: Oh, group hug.

Brooke: Let’s do a family hug.

Hope: Everyone get in here. I’m so happy.

Kyle: Marchetti’s operating expenses rose because the employee headcount increased when we acquired those textile factories from Newman. If you had looked carefully, you would have noticed–

Billy: That wasn’t at all condescending, was it?

Kyle: If you had looked carefully, you would have noticed that those costs are more than offset by the contractor fees. Not to mention all the other added benefits of bringing manufacturing in-house.

Billy: Yeah, see the problem with that is that historically deals between Jabot and Newman haven’t worked out very well for Jabot.

Kyle: I made that deal with victor with my eyes wide open and it led to Adam’s departure. Paved the way for your return. So, how about a thank you, instead of criticizing?

Billy: No, I’m not criticizing, Kyle. My issue is with victor. I wouldn’t put it past the guy to force a bunch of troubled properties on Jabot.

Kyle: Targeting those factories was my idea, not Victor’s. I knew exactly what I was doing. The numbers are high right now, as expected, but everything is going according to plan.

Billy: Yeah, I still think we need to pay attention–

Kyle: Billy, Billy! I don’t need your opinion. I have complete autonomy over Marchetti, so whatever you think about my business decisions doesn’t really matter.

Billy: Just trying to get the lay of land before I actually dig in.

Kyle: The land is just fine.

Billy: Good to know. Since you are in the office today, I do have an idea on how to bring jabot and Marchetti together. If you’re willing to listen.

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

Billy: This is not my first stint at Jabot.

Kyle: No kidding. You’ve been CEO how many times? Co-CEO, your mom fired you, my dad fired you. Everybody has fired you.

Billy: But there’s a positive there, I’ve learned from my mistakes. And I’m also bringing the experience that I have from working at Chancellor-Winters when they went through their merger. I know how to bring two companies together. And under the current configuration, jabot is not maximizing the potential of having Marchetti under its umbrella.

Kyle: Thanks for your input, but our strategy of keeping Marchetti and Jabot separate from the beginning has proven successful. I see no reason to change course.

Billy: Sometimes, you gotta think outside the box, Kyle.

Kyle: And what about the Jabotiques? Weren’t those another one of your failures?

Billy: I’m gonna let that one slide because you’re under tremendous personal pressure.

Kyle: Yeah, I know you pride yourself on being that guy, the innovator, the idea guy, but sometimes, outside the box is just outside of the box.

Billy: And sometimes, it’s exactly what you need. And because this idea involves both Marchetti and Jabot, you can’t unilaterally veto it.

Kyle: And by the same token, you can’t unilaterally implement it. It’s my dad’s call.

Billy: Great. I’ll talk to jack, see what he has to say.

Kyle: Fine by me.

Billy: Wonderful.

Kyle: I’m going to lunch. I know what you’re trying to do, distract me with stupid business ideas. Thanks.

Billy: You’re welcome.

Adam: Uh, I’m sure if you look hard enough in your psychology books, that’s probably a symptom of some disorder.

Sharon: I don’t doubt that.

Adam :So, uh, who’s the gift for?

Sharon: Um, it’s for Mariah and Tessa. It’s their surprise baby shower this afternoon. They didn’t get to have one before aria was born, so…

Adam: Mm. Afraid they might jinx things?

Sharon: In a way. They were with the baby’s mother in Portland for weeks until she went into labor, and then Mariah insisted that it wasn’t necessary. But, you know, this has been such a long journey for them. I think it’s time to just soak up the joy.

Adam: Hmm. Well, not to mention, it’s your first grandchild. How is that not reason to celebrate?

Nikki: No, that’s not it. It’s about letting things play out on their own. I mean, someday soon nicholas is going to wake up and realize that sally is totally wrong for him. And then it will be his decision to break up with her. If we interfere, I worry that it could blow up in our faces.

Victor: Baby, what if that never happens? What if she decides to carry this charade on indefinitely?

Nick: And what charade would that be?

Victor: A charade that you are involved with, son. The hell is the matter with you? You carry on with a woman that’s pregnant with your brother’s child. Are you mad? Why are you doing this? You torment your brother.

Sharon: No, i am being maternal. It was just A…reflex because I know that you hate leaving Tessa and the baby at home, and who could blame you? But I’m always glad to see you.

Mariah: Well, I am going to be heading home soon, but I just wanted to come here, pick up some treats and some much-needed coffee on my way back from jabot.

Sharon: The office? Why? I thought you were on parental leave.
Mariah: I am, but, uh, with Diane’s arrest, I just thought I could put in a few hours at work. I mean, she can’t handle her own pr crisis.

Sharon: The whole situation is so horrible.

Mariah: Yeah.

Sharon: But I’m sure that jack will really appreciate you stepping up at a time like this. You know, on the other hand, it’s also okay for you to put yourself and your family first. I mean, the first few days with your new baby are so precious.

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

Sharon: Oh, look how cute. I am so grateful to know this sweet little girl.

Mariah: Yeah. This is from this morning. It was her first time waking up in her new room. Although she had, uh, been up for a few hours before that ’cause she needed to be fed. And it definitely wasn’t daytime out. The sun was not out, uh, but, uh, there’s no need to get into that. I am extremely grateful for every second.

Abby: Even when they’re fussy and they’re having their meltdowns.

Mariah: Uh, though, right here, she happens to be very cute and very, very bubbly. Are they not like this all the time?

Sharon: Oh, yeah, they are. They’re always a bundle of sunshine and rainbows.

Abby: Oh, yeah, and I’ve heard they stay that way. Yeah, the terrible twos are just a myth.

Mariah: Wow. Okay. Well, the less cute moments make the cute moments 10 times better. I mean, just look at those cheeks and those eyes. Oh, God, she’s an old soul.
[Gasps] I have become one of those people that won’t stop gushing about their kid.

Michael: What could I possibly have done to be worthy of that compliment?

Nikki: Ah, it’s what you didn’t do. Now, I know you have a soft spot for Diane and I will never understand why, but the way you refused to rush to her rescue at Phyllis’s memorial, trust me, we all got the message, loud and clear. If the best attorney in genoa city thinks she’s guilty and won’t go near her with a 10-foot pole, well…

Michael: Well, yeah. Well, have a seat, please. Nikki, our constitution assures all citizens are innocent until proven otherwise, even the ones who don’t measure up or haven’t earned your seal of approval.

Nikki: According to the constitution, yes. But the founding fathers never met Diane. We know what she’s capable of. She’s dangerous and now Phyllis is dead.

Michael: Correlation doesn’t equate causation.

Nikki: Your clever tone has me a little worried. Please tell me I don’t need to be.

Michael: Last night, I got a call from jack asking me to represent Diane.

Victor: You know, otherwise, you’d have to ask for a leave of absence and then I would have to approve it and then I might be inclined to fire you.

Michael: We wouldn’t want that.

I just wanted to come in first to make sure the place was warm enough and, you know, there wasn’t anybody with any strong perfume, or nobody was, like, hacking up a lung. I know, I sound ridiculous. It’s a little embarrassing.

I would definitely say that that is an understatement. You know how when you’re a kid, you think that your mom is the most beautiful person in the world. That’s how I saw her. That’s how I’ll always see her. You know, this is, um… just paint and paper. Um, it resembles her. But my mom, she… she was an adventure. I mean, she crackled, she dazzled.

[ Chuckling ]

She was unpredictable– you know, at the center of all of that there– there was this intense, just laser focused love. And it was that intensity that touched everything that she did, for better or for worse. I need to tell you, sometimes it was really hard to– to watch her just waste that brilliance. That sheer power that she had on the wrong things because she was that amazing. She really was and she shouldn’t be gone. No, I mean, not yet. Yeah, even in this, um, horrible, senseless death, I feel like she’s still trying to teach me. You know, she’s trying to teach me how to love better and to fight harder for and I feel like she’s trying to teach me how to protect the ones that you love and care about the most with everything that you’ve got. I just wish I could have learned those lessons while she was still alive. And I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I didn’t understand. I’m sorry that we fought. I’m sorry that I spent so much time away from you and I’m sorry that I won’t get any more time with you. I love you, mom. I always will. Why give your family just any eggs
