Jack: I’d like to think you have better things to do with your time than worry about my personal life.

Victor: If I were you, i would start worrying about yourself.

Michael: Oh.

[Clears throat] What is that I detect in the air?

Victor: Nothing, nothing at all. Everything okay. Right, Jack?

Michael: Um, I need to have a word with you, but if I need to go and come back —

Jack: No, no, don’t. Don’t worry. I’m leaving. But not before I offer one last warning. Stay out of Jabot’s affairs, even if they include Adam. You lost him as an employee and a son. That’s on you. Maybe you should make peace with that.

Michael: Wow.

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

Tucker: Uh-oh, there she is. Where are you headed off to now? Is that your escape bag? Is your partner in crime Stark back?

Diane: [Scoffs]

Tucker: You know, it’d be so ironic if you were to leave town right after Phyllis. I bet she would — she would hop on the first flight back here asap if she knew you were going to be gone for good.

Diane: Whatever. And I am sorry to disappoint you, but I’m not going anywhere. My life is more on track now than it’s ever been. Although yours, not so much. Oh, hey, where is Ashley these days? Oh, that’s right. She fled Genoa City for paris just to get away from you. Sad.

Tucker: Hey, Adam. Been a minute.

Adam: Yeah, it has. Been staying out of trouble.

Tucker: That’s good. There’s just too many choices here. I can’t — I can’t make a decision. It’s impossible.

Adam: Well, everything’s delicious here, so you really can’t go wrong.

Tucker: What brings you here? Brownies? Sharon?

Adam: [Chuckles] Coffee.

Tucker: Mm-hmm.

Adam: Contemplation.

Tucker: Ah, yes, yes, yes. Are you meeting somebody or…?

Adam: Just me tonight.

Tucker: Cool. Well, in that case, let me buy you that coffee…and a brownie.

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

Adam: Thank you. Ah, well, look at us. “Genoa City’s villains get their just dessert.”

Tucker: [Chuckles] Ba-dum-bum.
Former villain.

Adam: Right. Well, at least nobody can accuse us of drinking coffee alone.

Tucker: Mm. The peaceful man… the peaceful man is frequently alone, but never lonely.

Adam: You don’t say.

Tucker: Mm-hmm. I’ll bet you haven’t had a night of peace in ages.

Adam: You would not be wrong.

Tucker: If you seek enlightenment…

[Clicks tongue]

Adam: I’m supposed to confess my sins and get some kind of absolution?

Tucker: Well, may I offer my own truths.

Adam: Knock yourself out.

Tucker: Perhaps you and I are here in this moment of time together ’cause we’re so alike. I have been trying to evolve. I’ve been trying to become the man I’m supposed to be, that i should be. And yet I continue to misjudge situations and underestimate the people in my life. I’d always believed that being honest was gonna hinder my cause for some reason, so I employed subterfuge. And it has bitten me in the ass.

Adam: You know, when you came back to town, you said something about reuniting with Devon and meeting Dom, maybe starting something up with Ashley again.

Tucker: Good memory.

Adam: Mm-hmm. And yet here you are, party of one. Ashley’s in Paris. She left rather abruptly. Pretty big surprise to everybody at Jabot.

Nate: Uh, just to be sure I’m putting in the hours and you’re getting your money’s worth?

Victoria: I never worry about that with you. No, I need your help with something.

Nate: What’s going on?

Victoria: This is what’s going on. It’s the good stuff.

Nate: Nice. Okay, now, I know the company has a lot of divisions, but i didn’t know we had a distillery on site.

Victoria: Well, that’s not a bad idea, but we don’t have one yet.
[ Laughs ] It was a gift. I was told to open it on a special occasion. So, we’re opening it tonight.

Nate: Okay. What’s the occasion?

Victoria: We are gonna forget about business as usual, and we are gonna step outside of the box.

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

Nate: Of course you are. Everybody goes through it.

Sally: Even you?

Nick: Yeah, even me. Seriously, I was worried sick with every kid. Now, it did get easier, but it’s still very scary.

Sally: But you’re a natural. I’ve seen you with your kids. You’ve got, like, a dozen world’s best dad mugs.

Nick: Well, if everybody says it, it must be true.

Sally: [Laughs]

Nick: Look, I got those mugs ironically. Before Noah was born, I wasn’t ready for that. I was a mess, like you are, too, but you’re gonna get through it. I promise. You know, part of the problem is the buildup. Nine months seems like it’s forever. But trust me — it goes by so fast. And then the baby gets here, and everything changes.

Sally: Yeah, then it gets really scary.

Nick: No, no, no. That’s the crazy part. When your baby’s born and you see it and you get to hold it, it’s just — everything makes sense. Right now, everything is like the unknown for you, but I’m telling you, when they hand that baby to you, you can’t imagine loving something that much. The fear goes away, and everything becomes clear to you.

Adam: Victor’s plan du jour is to get me fired from Jabot after which he’ll dangle some irresistible position at Newman, and then he will follow it up with a hearty welcome home. I mean, only — only Victor Newman would view trying to tank my career as an act of paternal affection.

Chelsea: Is he succeeding? Is your job in jeopardy?

Adam: No, not yet. I mean, at least not that I know of. Do you wanna hear what the punch line is? I’M…not happy at Jabot.

Chelsea: Really? Why?

Adam: [Sighs] I don’t fit in there. As much as I try to, I just — I don’t connect to the work or the products that we sell there or the people…

Chelsea: [Chuckles]

Adam: …That I supervise.

Chelsea: That’s frustrating.

Adam: Yeah. As much as I hate to admit it and as much as my father’s methods are infuriating and wildly inappropriate… his instincts are dead on.

Connor: I thought you were Billy.

Connor: Me!

Chelsea: I’m good, thanks.

Johnny: I thought you were Chelsea.

Chelsea: Ohh!

Johnny: No, I didn’t.

Sally: Yeah, it’s fine.

Nick: Doesn’t seem like that.

Sally: I am more interested in what the two of you were discussing.

Adam: Uh, my brother was just alerting me to a potential land mine set by our father, and I was about to thank him, even though his motives were potentially self-serving.

Nick: Well, Adam, I just hope you can use the information regardless of why I shared it. Sly well, I’m just relieved the two of you aren’t battling each other — at least, not now.

Adam: Oh, no, we’re not ready to throw a fist just yet. We are, um — what are we doing? How would you characterize this, Nicholas?

Nick: Just trying to keep our father from causing trouble.

Esther: Oh! Oh, you’re here! Oh. Oh, gosh. Uh-oh, I-it’s too much. Sorry. I-I-I just got caught up.

Devon: It’s okay. You alright?

Esther: I-I-I promise, I’m being discreet and not engaging in office gossip. But I want you to know that I absolutely adore you. You’re Mrs. C’s grandson, and Dom is Katherine’s sweet great-grandchild. And I absolutely love working here for her family and for yours. And I-I-I’m just praying that you and your sister can work things out.

Devon: Oh, thank you very much for saying that. It means a lot to me. But I promise you, we’re gonna be just fine. We are. Sometimes things have to change, and you know, it’s the way things are. But I’m glad that you’re still the same Esther that I’ve always known and loved.

Esther: Oh, back at you, sweetheart. Oh. Mwah.

Devon: Appreciate you.

Esther: I so love you.

Devon: We’ll be just fine. I’ll see you.

Esther: Okay, okay.

Phyllis: You’re an ass.

Tucker: Where are you going?

Phyllis: I’m trying to catch a flight.

Tucker: Oh, yeah?

Phyllis: Mm.

Tucker: Business or personal trip?

Phyllis: Uh, a little bit of both. And unlike you, I will be successful at both

*****†*********************

Tucker: Portugal? Isn’t that where Daniel’s partner and daughter are living now? That’s interesting.

Phyllis: Well, that’s interesting to me, of course. It shouldn’t be interesting to you.

Tucker: Is Daniel going with you?

Phyllis: What I do and what my son does — it’s none of your business. By the way, I told my son to keep away from you.

Tucker: So, he’s sticking around in town?

Phyllis: [Sighs] It’s not your concern.

Tucker: Yeah. He’s sticking around, isn’t he? Gonna work on his gaming platform. Yeah, he’s got a bold vision. When I talked to him, I was really impressed with how creative he is, and yet he’s also savvy, focused. It’s a nice combination.

Phyllis: Leave my son alone.

Tucker: Come on. He’s got the hottest project in town. It would be, uh — [Chuckles] It would be business malpractice if I didn’t try to get a piece of it.

Phyllis: Um, you seem desperate, Tucker.

Tucker: Is that so?

Phyllis: Yeah, because you’re a billionaire. You own a huge conglomerate. You’re here in this sleepy town trying to poach a gaming platform. I mean, what is that? You’re trying to take it out from under chancellor-winters. That’s your son’s company. What are you doing? You know, I’ll tell you. It seems like you haven’t had a win in a while.

Tucker: Mm.

Phyllis: And you’re just kind of jonesing for one. Just saying.

Tucker: Yeah. Well, Phyllis, you have a nice trip. [Chuckles]

Phyllis: Damn it.

Michael: Oh. Well, I’m sorry to hear that.

Lauren: Yeah, Daniel must be so frustrated.

Phyllis: Yeah. So, I decided to be proactive and, um, shop the project around to see if I can get financial backing from another company, and, um, you know, just in case things at chancellor-winters imploded.

Lauren: Wait. What? Without consulting Daniel?

Michael: Why would you meddle with that?

Phyllis: Well, I wasn’t meddling. It was just an exploratory conversation.

Lauren: And you don’t think that’s overstepping just a wee bit?

Phyllis: Well, no, because Daniel gave me the authority. I’m his right-hand man.

Michael: On the technical and staffing side so he could keep his eye on the big picture…

Phyllis: Okay.

Michael: …Like deciding which company to choose to ally himself with.

Phyllis: Well, I just wanted to be proactive. I knew how important this project is to my son, but it has him doubting me again, so, i mean, I don’t know what to do. I can’t win. I mean, do I try too hard? I don’t get it.

Michael: Ohh, Phyllis, i think there’s a common denominator with these problems with the children. Diane. Your intractable hostility towards her. It cost you your job at Marchetti, and from what you’ve already told us, it’s creating friction between you and Daniel.

Phyllis: Um, okay, Diane has nothing to do with this issue right now with me and Daniel. And I don’t want to get lectured about Diane. Please.

Lauren: Too bad

Audra: I assure you I work for you and you alone because you have the drive and instincts of a winner. I want to share in the success Newman Media is gonna become under your leadership, which is why I responded to tucker’s request to go meet with him. I was curious to see what his next move will be so I can keep you informed.

Nate: And?

Audra: Well, Tucker’s original goal — okay? — His big master plan, was to gain control of Jabot and put Ashley at the helm and then do the same thing with Chancellor-Winters, putting Devon in charge, so he can work side by side with the two people he claims to love the most in the world.

Nate: Ambitious.

Audra: Yeah, a little too ambitious. His plan went down in flames. But I know Tucker’s mind, okay? He’s the kind of man who needs a target, and now he’s doubly motivated after this big failure.

Nate: I assume Tucker wants to use you to feed him information about Newman, the way he did Chancellor-Winters, to find some vulnerability?
Audra: I thought that at first, too, but, I mean, he seemed more curious about our interest in Daniel Romalotti’s Omega Sphere Project — because, of course, he’s interested, too.

Nate: Mm. Well, props to Daniel for creating what’s suddenly the hottest new business venture in town.

Audra: Yeah.

Nate: The good news is… I’ve got a secret weapon.

Audra: Which is?

Nate: You

Billy: You know, I’ve had a lot of time to think. I don’t have a job. Living alone at the Grand Phoenix, you know, plenty of time to ponder my loneliness, my likes, my dislikes, my joys, despair. I’ve had a lot of sobering moments. But, you know, it’s like I said last time we were hanging out. When I see you, it’s, uh — you know, it’s like a highlight of my day. I guess I’m realizing in all of this that we’ve — we’ve lived parallel lives for quite some time.

Chelsea: Well, that’s kind of a stretch.

[Both chuckle]

Billy: Well, maybe my issues haven’t been quite as intensive as yours, but, you know, there are similarities there, both emotionally and mentally. You know, this — this journey that we’re on — I don’t know. I guess that’s maybe why we connect. I guess what I’m saying is I’m very grateful for this friendship.

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

Tucker: A, uh — [Laughs] an invitation from the Newman siblings? That’s…a suspicious surprise.

Victoria: No, we — we just wanted to talk.

Tucker: Oh, really? What about?

Nick: Your future plans.

Tucker: Yeah, I figured. Say, did you fill him in on the nasty rumor you started that I’m coming after your company?

Victoria: Oh, that? Uh, no, I — I hadn’t given it a second thought since we spoke, since the idea of you being successful at it is dubious at best.
Tucker: What, then?

Victoria: Oh, we just wanted to let you know that there’s another nasty rumor floating around.

Tucker: Oh. Do tell.

Nick: Your company’s in trouble.

Tucker: Well, you know you’re on top when people feel the need to start gossiping about you. But, uh, I don’t believe rumors. Neither should you.

Lauren: Oh, truer words were never spoken.

Gloria: You know something? I’ve always been curious. I’ve never asked. But why did it end with you and Paul?

Lauren: You know, um, a few reasons. First and foremost was this guy name Shawn Garrett. When I met him, he was, you know, very kind. He said he’d been to all my concerts, and he wanted to start an official fan club for me. And then he became obsessed with me. He tried to ruin Danny’s career. And then he said that he would kill Paul if I didn’t divorce him. So, I did. I did to protect Paul. I tried to pretend to have feelings for Shawn, but when he found out how I really felt? To say that he lost it would be an understatement.

Shawn: [Panting] By the time

Victoria: Yes, as a matter of fact, it is. You know, I think that it’s dinnertime in Paris right now. It must be gorgeous, with the lights twinkling on the seine, lovers walking arm in arm down the Champs-Elysées. And I’m sure that Ashley is glancing out at the Eiffel tower, basking in the fact that she escaped you. You must be so crushed that your plan to win Ashley back failed.

Tucker: Well, I must say, I’m very flattered you’ve been thinking of me so much.

Victoria: I do. I do think of you, tucker, as much as anyone thinks of an invasive species. Very difficult to eradicate, but once they’re gone, everybody’s so blissfully satisfied.

Tucker: Are you trying to tell me you think I should leave town?

Victoria: Ashley’s out of your reach. You’re out of reasons to stay.

Tucker: Well, why should i run away and deprive myself the pleasure of one-upping my enemies?

Victoria: I don’t think you’ve one-upped anyone this go-round.

Victor: That’s putting it mildly.

Adam: Well, I’m sure that you’ll get over it. You usually do.

Victor: Listen to me. I hope that one day you won’t have the same situation with your son, Connor, when he grows up and tells you he wants nothing to do with you, he ices you out of his life. How would you feel about that?

Audra: Devon wasn’t suspicious of me until he realized that we share the same stupid phone alert.

[Scoffs]

Tucker: What? What are you talking about?

Audra: I guess he didn’t share that part, okay? But this is why he asked if we were colluding against him. Now, why would he wonder about something that could have so easily been dismissed as a coincidence? Because from the moment that he heard that you showed up in town in that ludicrous helicopter, okay, like the attention-seeking narcissist you are, Devon wondered if his dear old dad had an agenda to take over his company. Speaks so well of your personal dynamic. Oh. Have I crossed a line? I’m doing you a favor speaking the truth. You could have reconnected with Devon without all the secrets and lies. But whenever you have to choose between honesty and manipulation, you always choose the latter. It makes you feel like the smartest guy in the room. Only this time, your son was smarter.

Tucker: And now he won’t return my calls. And he’s cut me off from my grandson. My relationship with him means more than any company ever could, and yet he won’t give me a chance to explain. I just want to work side by side with him. I don’t want to… I wasn’t trying to rob him of anything. I wanted — I wanted to build something with him. Just like I was trying to do with Ashley.

Audra: Did things go south there, as well?

Tucker: [Chuckles] Yeah. I guess you could it’s not my day.

Adam: You know, if it’s all the same to you, I would really like to enjoy my drink in peace.

Kyle: Huh. You know, I think I know what this is about. You’re having trouble dealing with the fact sally chose the superior brother.
Adam: You know, I don’t recall you being a particularly big fan of Sally’s, and now you are glad she’s involved with your father-in-law instead of me. Hmm. I doubt summer shares your enthusiasm, so you might want to keep that one to yourself.

Kyle: As usual, you’ve twisted my words around. I was just making an observation.

Nick: Son, when are we gonna start meeting someplace a little more happening? Clearly, this place isn’t taking off the way you’d hoped.

Noah: Alright, well, maybe not for a happening guy like you, but I seem to be satisfying all my other patrons. You know, besides, this place is my life now. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Nick: I’m as content as you are.

Noah: Okay, I’m gonna ask you something. Fair warning — you might not want to answer it right now.

Nick: [Laughs] Well, now I’m curious. What’s up?

Noah: This whole sally thing. I’m interested to know how serious it is.

*********”*””””””””””””””””””””””””””

Nick: How serious is the Sally thing? I don’t know, man. How serious is the Allie thing?

Noah: She’s amazing. We love spending time together. We support one another, and i appreciate her more and more every day.

Nick: Same.

Noah: Ah, it’s just — it’s that type of love I could really be grateful for, especially after all the Audra stuff. Every day I wake up and I am excited to nourish our relationship and watch it grow.

Nick: [Chuckles] You sound like a self-help guru.

Noah: What can I say? It’s special. She offers support and stability, consistency. It’s just — it’s really nice.

Sharon: I brewed this pot especially for you.

Chance: Oh, wow. Thank you. What do I, uh — what do i detect, a hint of?Cardamom, peppercorns, clove, and cinnamon.

Chance: Oh, wow. That’s why it smells so incredible.

Sharon: Well, I was inspired to add a little spice after our first supper club dinner.

Chance: That was fun.

Sharon: Yeah. I even decided to do a little research and take a look at what other types of cuisines we might be tempted by.

Chance: Great minds.

Sharon: Oh. You too?

Chance: Yep, and I got one question for you. How far off the beaten path are you willing to go?

Sharon: That’s a really good question. Hmm. Let me think. I’d be willing to try anything and everything.

Chance: You serious?

Sharon: Yeah, absolutely. Life is short. You got to use all of your taste buds, live on the edge. No more solo dinner ruts.

Chance: Ah, well, alright. Bring on the world, then.

Sharon: Why don’t you try that Moroccan spiced coffee? It was the first time I ever made it, and I’m not sure how it turned out.

Chance: [Chuckles] Well, thank you. I appreciate the warning. Ooh, yeah. Not bad

Victor: Son, I’d watch your tone if I were you.

Adam: Okay, just spare me your advice.

Victor: It’s telling, though, isn’t it? Although you involve me as a villain in any of your stories, you always come crawling back when you need me, don’t you? And that time will come again soon. I promise you.

Adam: You really are insufferable. You know, with an ego as big as his, I’m shocked that there’s room enough for you at the table or enough oxygen for you to breathe. I’ve had enough.

Nikki: This is just what he does. I mean, he has some kind of turmoil going on in his life, and he tries to whip everybody up into a frenzy. Darling, you just need to find a way to let it roll off your back.

Victor: No, maybe I’ll try something else.

Nikki: Well, what else can you do?

Victor: Give him a wake-up call. He needs to hit rock bottom, experience a massive failure, before he realizes where he belongs. That boy’s getting out of line. And I’ve had it.

Diane: Good morning. You’re up and at it early.

Jeremy: Being incarcerated has given me a new appreciation for life. I don’t like to waste time.

Diane: Is that the tie I gave you all those years ago?

Jeremy: Mm. I’m flattered you remembered.

Diane: Ooh, I like your style, which is why I am carefully planning how to surprise you with my act of good faith.

Jeremy: Sounds like you’re enjoying your assignment.

Diane: Maybe a little. It’s been lovely being back in Genoa City playing
mother and grandmother, but I am a woman with wants and needs.

Jeremy: Hmm. Yes, you are. Please sit down and catch me up on this plan of yours. I am dying to know all the details

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

Jack: What kind of evidence did you find?

Ashley: Um, Jabot’s financial information.

Jack: Oh, geez.

Ashley: You know, the same reports that Diane was supposed to get for him.

Jack: Diane said that never took place. She never passed on any intel. He confirmed it.

Ashley: I don’t care, okay? They’re both pathological liars. Let’s just leave it there.

Jack: You okay?

Ashley: I’m fine.

Jack: I can’t help but wonder if a part of you wishes you were wrong about Tucker’s motives. I know the two of you have spent a lot of time together. Is it possible that in trying to win his trust, maybe he succeeded in winning back some of yours?

Ashley: I was always in control, Jack. I knew what I was doing, and I still do. You are the one that’s being fooled by a manipulative ex.

Jack: And there it is — the hostility toward Diane that colors your whole life.

Ashley: And you are colorblind

Daniel: And if anyone is giving you the vibes that you’re giving me right now, totally don’t hire them.

Phyllis: What vibes?

Daniel: Yeah, the vibes. No, you are lucky you already have this job. I mean, if this was an interview, it would be over by now. I mean, your lack of focus — it’s exactly what we don’t want.

Phyllis: What are you ta–

Daniel: No, we don’t want. You need to set the tone.

Phyllis: I’m setting the tone. I’m focused. I know what you want.

Daniel: Mm-hmm?

Phyllis: You want passion and loyalty and commitment. I mean, those are the things that I wanted when I was hiring. I know what you mean, okay? I get it. I’m glad you get it.

Daniel: Of course I get it.

Phyllis: Yeah. Too bad your sister doesn’t get it.

Daniel: What do you mean?

Phyllis: Your sister. She didn’t even fight to keep me at Marchetti. I mean, what kind of loyalty did she show to me, her own mother?

Daniel: [Exhales sharply] Look, mom, I am really sorry about whatever happened with you and Summer, but you need to move on. You need to move on to your new job with me. I mean, I am your boss.

[Chuckles]

Phyllis: I know that. Maybe my problem is I shouldn’t be working with my kids. That’s — [ Laughs ] That’s a joke.

Daniel: [ Chuckles ] Yeah, no, it’s not funny.

Phyllis: Oh.

Daniel: No. We’ve got a long road ahead, and I need you focused.

Phyllis: I’m very focused.

Daniel: Good. And, you know, maybe don’t make it so clear that I’m your second choice.

****************””””””””*****”””””””””

Tucker: Yeah.

Ashley: You had one of your mystical vibes that I was gonna barge in with a bottle of wine?

Tucker: Yeah. You’ve been on my mind, of course, so I think I manifested this.

Ashley: Oh, great. Listen. You know what? Diane has infected my entire family like a virus. It’s unbelievable. All the things that she’s done to Jack, she’s also managed to turn my brother into a sucker. Were you aware that she’s working at a division in Jabot? Did you know that? And not just that, but she’s at my house constantly, so there’s no escaping her. Diane is everywhere, and every day I wake up in a new, fresh Diane hell. There’s Diane again! There’s Diane again!

[Sighs]

Tucker: Yes. I’m sorry.

[Laughs] I… I’m sorry that you’re so upset. But I just have to tell you, for me, this is heavenly

Jeremy: Diane, you look lovely. Reminds me how chic you used to look every time we used to go out.

Diane: Charming as ever. You always knew just what to say to make me feel beautiful.

Jeremy: Just stating the obvious. Sit.

Diane: Oh, and thoughtful, too. I see you’ve already ordered my favorite champagne.

Jeremy: Only the best for you.

Diane: Well, I’m hoping this means we have something to celebrate.

Jeremy: Let’s see where the evening takes us.

Diane: I was just about to say the same thing.

Sally: Believe me, ghosting you is the last thing on my mind.

Nick: What’s that?

Sally: What?

Nick: What you just threw away.

Sally: Oh, those are just drafts of the pitch that Chloe and I are working on for Jill and Chancellor-Winters.

Nick: Why don’t you let me take a look at it. I know Jill very well. I might be able to give you some insight on how to win her over.

Sally: Uh, no, no. Really, the drafts are not worth looking at, but I might take you up on your offer once we figure everything out. Did you really think that I was trying to blow you off?

Nick: Nah, I wouldn’t be here if I did. I was just thinking about you. A lot. I was just wondering how you’re doing. I’m hoping the stomach bug. Are you still feeling better?

Devon: I got you some coffee.

Abby: Thank you.

Devon: You’re very welcome. I had the, uh, nanny take Dominic down to the kiddie gym so he can get his steps in for the day.

Abby: Oh, you should have woken me up. I love watching him play there. He loves that big green ball.

Devon: Yeah, he does.

********************†**************

Jack: Yes, she has a past. We all do. But since she’s gotten back to Genoa City, she has done nothing to you.

Ashley: That’s true, but only because she hasn’t been given the opportunity. If she found out she had leverage over me, she would not hesitate to use it.

Jack: That is absolutely absurd.

Ashley: Okay. Look, I am trying here, alright? I really am. And I’ve decided that i understand that you would want your son to reconnect with his mother.

Jack: Yes.

Ashley: Okay. I get that. But you have let Diane back into your life, Jack. And from what I saw right here last night, she’s in far too deep.

Jack: I don’t know what you think you saw, but it’s really none of your business. Whether you like it or not, Diane is part of this family.

Ashley: No, I don’t like it! And as far as I’m concerned, she’s not part of this family.

Jack: She is Kyle’s mother. She is Harrison’s grandmother.

Ashley: I know. I just can’t get the image out of my mind of your son as a little boy crying himself to sleep because he thought his mother was dead.

Jack: Diane has changed. Kyle has forgiven her. As far as I’m concerned, that makes her welcome in our home.

Ashley: I can’t forgive her. I can’t forgive her. Does that make me a bad person? I don’t think so. I don’t. Given the pain she’s caused this family, I think that viper deserves permanent exile from this house.

Jack: Wow. Isn’t it ironic that you, of all people, are opposed to a viper coming into this house?

Phyllis: Hey.

Ashley: I came as soon as i got your message. What’s going on?

Phyllis: Diane’s back.

Ashley: Ugh! And I was hoping we were finally rid of her.

Phyllis: Mnh. She never really ran, by the way. That was just to cover so Jeremy Stark would leave town looking for her. And the worst part for me is my own daughter blew me off for Christmas so she could spend it with Diane and her husband so he could, you know, live out his childhood dreams with his mom.

Ashley: I am so sorry. That must have been very painful.

Phyllis: I’m not done. There’s more. Ashley, my daughter has always confided in me. She’s always trusted me before Diane corrupted her. And my daughter let everybody in town think that I was the one who chased Diana out of town, when, really, there was — i don’t know — a Jabot-sponsored motorcade bringing her up to the Abbott cabin.

 

************************†******************

Devon: Look at you. Look at this jacket. Look at your hat.

Abby: Ooh, I can get you one.

Devon: It’s very cute. Can you?

Abby: Mm-hmm.

Devon: I’d love that. Same size, please. I want to match this guy.
