1
00:00:02,035 --> 00:00:04,537
>> Mariah: All right.
So, you all got the press
2
00:00:04,604 --> 00:00:06,940
packets, digitally.
There's gonna be a step and
3
00:00:07,006 --> 00:00:09,943
repeat out front for VIP guests
guests and I promise the
4
00:00:10,009 --> 00:00:12,245
best angles because our
guests are so fabulous.
5
00:00:12,312 --> 00:00:15,048
And remember,
this is a celebration.
6
00:00:15,115 --> 00:00:18,685
It's not a press junket,
so no interviews, unfortunately.
7
00:00:18,752 --> 00:00:23,623
Okay?
Have a great event, you guys.
8
00:00:23,690 --> 00:00:26,559
Oh, my gosh.
Thank you so much.
9
00:00:26,626 --> 00:00:28,628
You are a lifesaver
for bringing this.
10
00:00:28,695 --> 00:00:30,363
>> Tessa: I'm dying
to know what it is.
11
00:00:30,430 --> 00:00:33,366
>> Mariah: Um, it's a little
surprise that Sharon has
12
00:00:33,433 --> 00:00:35,335
for later on.
>> Tessa: Oh, well,
13
00:00:35,402 --> 00:00:37,637
you can trust me, I'm family.
You know I can keep a secret.
14
00:00:37,704 --> 00:00:39,639
>> Mariah: No, no, no, no.
Excuse me.
15
00:00:39,706 --> 00:00:42,575
Can you put this in the
lounge somewhere discreet
16
00:00:42,642 --> 00:00:44,644
where nobody can see it?
Thank you.
17
00:00:44,711 --> 00:00:47,547
>> Tessa: Geez.
Playing the wife card usually
18
00:00:47,614 --> 00:00:49,616
gets me a lot farther.
I must be losing my touch.
19
00:00:49,682 --> 00:00:52,585
>> Mariah: No, your wifely wiles
will always work on me.
20
00:00:52,652 --> 00:00:55,121
But in this case,
you're gonna have to wait
21
00:00:55,188 --> 00:01:00,226
with everybody else.
>> Devon: Hey, Billy.
22
00:01:00,293 --> 00:01:02,095
>> Billy: Hey.
Hey, do you have a minute?
23
00:01:02,162 --> 00:01:04,330
I wanna touch base on
a few things.
24
00:01:04,397 --> 00:01:09,569
>> Devon: Yeah, sure.
>> Billy: Thanks.
25
00:01:09,636 --> 00:01:11,938
>> Devon: How are you uh,
settling in?
26
00:01:12,005 --> 00:01:13,907
>> Billy: Yeah, good.
Everything feels good.
27
00:01:13,973 --> 00:01:15,975
It doesn't feel like too much
has changed since I left.
28
00:01:16,042 --> 00:01:18,411
And to that end, did you get
a chance to look at those
29
00:01:18,478 --> 00:01:20,847
proposals I sent over?
>> Devon: I did.
30
00:01:20,914 --> 00:01:23,516
>> Billy: Ah, and you
love them, I can tell.
31
00:01:23,583 --> 00:01:26,653
>> Devon: Well, no, I didn't
have a chance to look at them
32
00:01:26,719 --> 00:01:29,756
enough to make a decision.
And I usually like to weigh
33
00:01:29,823 --> 00:01:31,858
all the ramifications
before I do that, you know?
34
00:01:31,925 --> 00:01:33,893
>> Billy: Yeah.
No, I-- I do know that.
35
00:01:33,960 --> 00:01:36,262
I know that was a sticking
point with Nate,
36
00:01:36,329 --> 00:01:38,798
but Nate was new to the game.
My ideas come with
37
00:01:38,865 --> 00:01:40,934
years of experience.
>> Devon: Right.
38
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,970
I'm aware of that, Billy.
Not always successful though.
39
00:01:44,037 --> 00:01:45,605
>> Billy: Well,
don't take too long.
40
00:01:45,672 --> 00:01:47,340
Some of those ideas have
an expiration date.
41
00:01:47,407 --> 00:01:49,142
>> Devon: Well, they
might have to expire because
42
00:01:49,209 --> 00:01:51,811
I'm not gonna be rushed.
>> Abby: Hey, you two.
43
00:01:51,878 --> 00:01:53,780
>> Chelsea: I told you
they'd still be working.
44
00:01:53,847 --> 00:01:55,582
>> Devon: Hi. How you doing?
>> Abby: Hey.
45
00:01:55,648 --> 00:01:58,017
>> Billy: Looks like date night.
Hopefully, you can convince
46
00:01:58,084 --> 00:02:00,086
Devon to leave the office early.
I think he could use
47
00:02:00,153 --> 00:02:01,521
a little fun.
>> Abby: Uh, actually,
48
00:02:01,588 --> 00:02:04,057
we are headed to the launch
party for Sharon's new company.
49
00:02:04,123 --> 00:02:08,027
>> Chelsea: Us too. Double date?

with this?
57
00:02:45,431 --> 00:02:48,001
I can't seem to zip it.
>> Jack: Here we go.
58
00:02:48,067 --> 00:02:49,669
Up and--
>> Diane: Thank you.
59
00:02:49,736 --> 00:02:51,638
>> Jack: And clasped.
>> Diane: Well,
60
00:02:51,704 --> 00:02:54,073
that's embarrassing. I've been
struggling for 15 minutes.
61
00:02:54,140 --> 00:02:55,942
>> Jack: Well, we all need
an assist sometimes.
62
00:02:56,009 --> 00:02:58,278
Speaking of which,
is my tie too short?
63
00:02:58,344 --> 00:03:00,547
>> Diane: No,
your tie is perfect.
64
00:03:00,613 --> 00:03:03,182
Just like you.
You look extra handsome.
65
00:03:03,249 --> 00:03:05,184
>> Jack: And you look
particularly ravishing.
66
00:03:05,251 --> 00:03:07,186
>> Diane: Mm.
I'm ready to network.
67
00:03:07,253 --> 00:03:10,056
I can imagine that tonight's
going to be a who's who of
68
00:03:10,123 --> 00:03:12,559
Genoa City's business elite.
>> Jack: Well, was that your
69
00:03:12,625 --> 00:03:15,094
nice way of saying conversation
should be pretty dull?
70
00:03:15,161 --> 00:03:17,430
>> Diane: No,
with Mariah in charge,
71
00:03:17,497 --> 00:03:20,166
it can't possibly be boring.
Although, I am still upset
72
00:03:20,233 --> 00:03:22,302
that we lost her to Sharon.
She's been hard to replace.
73
00:03:22,368 --> 00:03:24,003
>> Jack: Well, we can't
blame her for wanting
74
00:03:24,070 --> 00:03:26,573
to work with family.
>> Diane: Speaking of which,
75
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,475
I've been thinking there's
an upside to Tucker figuring out
76
00:03:29,542 --> 00:03:32,879
our-- Well, Kyle's plan.
>> Jack: Do tell.
77
00:03:32,946 --> 00:03:35,615
>> Diane: Well,
Kyle can drop the act.
78
00:03:35,682 --> 00:03:38,284
He can stop pretending that
you snubbed him for the top spot
79
00:03:38,351 --> 00:03:41,754
and you can promote him.
>> Jack: There's plenty
80
00:03:41,821 --> 00:03:43,723
of time for that.
>> Diane: Yeah, but why wait?
81
00:03:43,790 --> 00:03:45,858
I mean, he's certainly
proven himself in our
82
00:03:45,925 --> 00:03:47,727
battle against Tucker.
>> Jack: Yes, he has,
83
00:03:47,794 --> 00:03:51,164
but as I said, there is no rush.
What we have to rush is
84
00:03:51,230 --> 00:03:53,466
getting out of here.
We're gonna be late.
85
00:03:56,502 --> 00:03:59,272
>> Nick: There she is,
the woman of the hour.
86
00:03:59,339 --> 00:04:01,641
>> Sharon: Aw,
you shouldn't have.
87
00:04:01,708 --> 00:04:03,676
>> Nick: Those are
from Noah and Faith.
88
00:04:03,743 --> 00:04:06,779
>> Sharon: Oh, well,
that's very sweet of them.
89
00:04:06,846 --> 00:04:10,683
They both called earlier.
>> Nick: And this is from me.
90
00:04:10,750 --> 00:04:19,659
>> Sharon: Oh, wow.
Oh, my gosh.
91
00:04:19,726 --> 00:04:22,729
I'm really doing this, aren't I?
>> Nick: You really are
92
00:04:22,795 --> 00:04:24,631
and me and the kids
could not be prouder.
93
00:04:24,697 --> 00:04:28,835
>> Sharon: Thank you.
That means everything.
94
00:04:28,901 --> 00:04:32,171
Oh, Simone, could you put
this someplace safe for me?
95
00:04:32,238 --> 00:04:34,641
>> Nick: Thank you so much.
Appreciate that.
96
00:04:34,707 --> 00:04:37,844
I, uh,
saw Mariah upstairs whipping
97
00:04:37,910 --> 00:04:40,480
the press into shape.
>> Sharon: She's amazing.
98
00:04:40,546 --> 00:04:43,216
I know how lucky I am to
have her on my team.
99
00:04:43,282 --> 00:04:45,485
>> Nick: You really are.
It's gonna be a stellar event
100
00:04:45,551 --> 00:04:47,487
and you're not
the least bit nervous?
101
00:04:47,553 --> 00:04:50,957
>> Sharon: You know,
not that long ago, this would
102
00:04:51,024 --> 00:04:53,993
have been very daunting,
but tonight, launching
103
00:04:54,060 --> 00:04:56,863
my own company just
feels like a natural fit.
104
00:04:56,929 --> 00:04:59,999
I-- I had a dream the
other night that put some
105
00:05:00,066 --> 00:05:02,502
things in perspective,
and now, a part of that
106
00:05:02,568 --> 00:05:06,873
dream is reality.
>> Adam: Is that part
107
00:05:06,939 --> 00:05:11,310
of tonight's theme?
Dreams do come true?
108
00:05:19,819 --> 00:05:22,055
>> Phyllis: Hey.
Hey, sorry, I'm late.
109
00:05:22,121 --> 00:05:25,658
I was uh, at the Athletic
Club when I got your text, so...
110
00:05:25,725 --> 00:05:28,027
>> Summer: Oh, yeah.
It's fine. Sorry for the last
111
00:05:28,094 --> 00:05:30,163
change of plans.
>> Phyllis: No problem.
112
00:05:30,229 --> 00:05:32,932
So, why did you wanna
change the venue?
113
00:05:32,999 --> 00:05:35,601
>> Summer: Uh, well,
they are serving this new
114
00:05:35,668 --> 00:05:38,037
specialty cocktail here.
I was really craving it.
115
00:05:38,104 --> 00:05:41,340
>> Phyllis: Oh, this one?
Can I have a sip?
116
00:05:41,407 --> 00:05:43,409
>> Summer: Uh.
>> Phyllis: Mm.
117
00:05:43,476 --> 00:05:46,846
It's hard to get a seltzer water
anywhere in this town.
118
00:05:46,913 --> 00:05:49,282
>> Summer: Well, I hadn't
ordered my drink yet, Mom.
119
00:05:49,348 --> 00:05:51,017
Thank you.
I was waiting for you.
120
00:05:51,084 --> 00:05:54,487
>> Phyllis: Yeah,
just maybe, you know.
121
00:05:54,554 --> 00:06:00,993
Okay, I happen to be aware of
Sharon's launch party in
122
00:06:01,060 --> 00:06:05,064
the jazz lounge at the Athletic
Club, where I was just sitting.
123
00:06:05,131 --> 00:06:10,136
>> Summer: Yeah, I didn't really
want to run into that crowd.
124
00:06:10,203 --> 00:06:12,505
>> Phyllis: Or maybe
you really didn't want to
125
00:06:12,572 --> 00:06:17,643
run into Sharon and Chance?
>> Chelsea: Shall we head out?
126
00:06:17,710 --> 00:06:19,445
>> Devon: I actually
have a few more emails
127
00:06:19,512 --> 00:06:21,781
I need to take care of.
>> Billy: Well, take your time.
128
00:06:21,848 --> 00:06:24,450
>> Devon: I always do.
Uh, do you mind?
129
00:06:24,517 --> 00:06:26,786
It will only take a second.
>> Abby: No, no, we have time.
130
00:06:26,853 --> 00:06:28,354
>> Devon: Okay.
>> Chelsea: No problem.
131
00:06:28,421 --> 00:06:30,223
We'll just meet you guys there.
>> Abby: Okay.
132
00:06:30,289 --> 00:06:38,364
>> Devon: Perfect.
>> Chelsea: Hey, uh,
133
00:06:38,431 --> 00:06:40,533
is everything okay
with you and Devon?
134
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,668
>> Billy: Yeah,
everything's fine. Why?
135
00:06:42,735 --> 00:06:45,571
>> Chelsea: Are you sure? It
seemed a little tense in there.
136
00:06:45,638 --> 00:06:48,374
>> Billy: Just a difference in
business styles, you know?
137
00:06:48,441 --> 00:06:50,343
That's all.
We stay out of each other's
138
00:06:50,409 --> 00:06:52,545
way for the most part.
>> Chelsea: Well, you are trying
139
00:06:52,612 --> 00:06:54,747
to run a company together.
I mean, it is important that you
140
00:06:54,814 --> 00:06:57,116
talk every once in a while.
>> Billy: We talk.
141
00:06:57,183 --> 00:06:59,752
Look, I don't think Devon
expected me to come back
142
00:06:59,819 --> 00:07:01,854
at Jill's request, right?
So, I think he's being
143
00:07:01,921 --> 00:07:04,490
a little aloof right now.
>> Chelsea: Aloof how?
144
00:07:04,557 --> 00:07:06,759
>> Billy: When you walked in,
I was asking him about
145
00:07:06,826 --> 00:07:09,262
a proposal that I sent his way
that he's been taking
146
00:07:09,328 --> 00:07:12,231
his time on.
That's about it.
147
00:07:12,298 --> 00:07:14,534
That's the microscopic tension
that you picked up on.
148
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,870
>> Chelsea: Is he stonewalling?
>> Bily: I think Devon's
149
00:07:17,937 --> 00:07:20,439
used to having autonomy.
He's been running the
150
00:07:20,506 --> 00:07:23,743
company with Lily and now,
I'm here and Nate's back.
151
00:07:23,810 --> 00:07:26,512
Not to mention Jill,
Mamie, and Chance.
152
00:07:26,579 --> 00:07:28,614
>> Chelsea: That's the
opposite of autonomy.
153
00:07:28,681 --> 00:07:32,585
>> Billy: It is.
But Devon's a pro. He'll adjust.
154
00:07:32,652 --> 00:07:35,021
>> Abby: How are things
going working with Billy?
155
00:07:35,087 --> 00:07:38,124
>> Devon: Oh,
we're finding our groove.
156
00:07:38,191 --> 00:07:40,860
>> Abby: I can see that.
>> Devon: He's just used
157
00:07:40,927 --> 00:07:43,462
to working one-on-one with Jack,
fast tracking his ideas,
158
00:07:43,529 --> 00:07:46,132
you know?
We operate a little
159
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:49,468
different around here.
But he'll adjust.
160
00:07:49,535 --> 00:07:52,071
And I'm playing nice. I promise.
>> Abby: Yeah, I could
161
00:07:52,138 --> 00:07:53,940
feel the warmth when
I walked into the room.
162
00:07:54,006 --> 00:07:56,275
But, hey, we are gonna keep work
in the office tonight
163
00:07:56,342 --> 00:07:58,110
because this is a very
important night for Sharon.
164
00:07:58,177 --> 00:08:00,980
>> Devon: Yes. Yes, it is.
And I promise that she and
165
00:08:01,047 --> 00:08:06,252
you will have my full attention.
>> Sharon: I'm so glad
166
00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:09,055
you both could make it.
>> Sally: Congratulations,
167
00:08:09,121 --> 00:08:11,557
Sharon. I'm really happy for you
and your new chapter.
168
00:08:11,624 --> 00:08:13,192
>> Sharon: Thank you.
So am I.
169
00:08:13,259 --> 00:08:17,763
And these two scored
a big win at Newman with Victor.
170
00:08:17,830 --> 00:08:21,767
>> Adam: Things are going well,
so I feel pretty lucky.
171
00:08:21,834 --> 00:08:24,370
>> Nick: Don't be modest, Adam.
It's not about luck.
172
00:08:24,437 --> 00:08:26,806
You tend to go pretty hard after
the things you want.
173
00:08:26,873 --> 00:08:32,144
>> Adam: Well, anything worth
having is worth the effort.
174
00:08:32,211 --> 00:08:35,681
But yes, things are going well,
so we all have something
175
00:08:35,748 --> 00:08:37,550
to drink to.
>> Nick: Just as long
176
00:08:37,617 --> 00:08:39,886
as you remember this night
is about Sharon.
177
00:08:39,952 --> 00:08:43,856
>> Sharon: And I couldn't have
done it without the two of you.
178
00:08:43,923 --> 00:08:48,060
Your input, even at the
beginning, just helped me figure
179
00:08:48,127 --> 00:08:50,563
out what I wanted to create.
>> Nick: Well, it is great to
180
00:08:50,630 --> 00:08:53,065
see you realize that vision.
>> Adam: Absolutely.
181
00:08:53,132 --> 00:08:56,035
And Sally's design
business seems to be
182
00:08:56,102 --> 00:08:58,571
taking off quite well.
>> Sally: Thanks to
183
00:08:58,638 --> 00:09:00,406
Nick's investment.
>> Adam: Have you considered
184
00:09:00,473 --> 00:09:01,974
hiring her to design
your offices, Sharon?
185
00:09:02,041 --> 00:09:04,210
>> Sally: Adam, you can't just
put Sharon on the spot
186
00:09:04,277 --> 00:09:06,612
like that.
Can you go get me
187
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,081
a champagne, please?
>> Sharon: I would like one too.
188
00:09:09,148 --> 00:09:10,750
>> Nick: Yeah,
we'll take care of that.
189
00:09:10,816 --> 00:09:16,489
Let's go.
>> Sharon: Once again, Adam
190
00:09:16,555 --> 00:09:19,158
seems to be your biggest fan.
>> Sally: I am sorry
191
00:09:19,225 --> 00:09:21,060
for the hard sell.
He's just been a huge
192
00:09:21,127 --> 00:09:24,130
cheerleader for my designs.
>> Sharon: And you know,
193
00:09:24,196 --> 00:09:29,735
that's not what I meant.
>> Sally: I'm cautiously
194
00:09:29,802 --> 00:09:34,640
optimistic about us.
Seems like the same could
195
00:09:34,707 --> 00:09:37,810
be said for you and Nick.
>> Sharon: Um,
196
00:09:37,877 --> 00:09:41,547
he's just here as my date.
>> Sally: Just?
197
00:09:41,614 --> 00:09:43,983
>> Sharon: Well,
it's not a date date.
198
00:09:44,050 --> 00:09:48,955
Nick just always manages to
be there for me when I need him.
199
00:10:00,700 --> 00:10:05,004
>> Adam: Champagne.
Sorry about the, uh,
200
00:10:05,071 --> 00:10:08,074
awkwardness with Nick.
>> Sally: I mean,
201
00:10:08,140 --> 00:10:11,177
he seemed fine back at the club.
>> Adam: When we were very
202
00:10:11,243 --> 00:10:13,512
obviously going up
to your suite.
203
00:10:13,579 --> 00:10:15,348
>> Sally: Yeah, I mean,
it's just gonna take
204
00:10:15,414 --> 00:10:17,550
some time for him to get
used to it, I suppose.
205
00:10:17,616 --> 00:10:22,154
Seeing us together in public.
>> Adam: How do you feel
206
00:10:22,221 --> 00:10:24,657
about that?
>> Sally: Well, I mean,
207
00:10:24,724 --> 00:10:26,859
I'd imagine no one's
really that surprised.
208
00:10:26,926 --> 00:10:29,895
Sharon wasn't.
>> Adam: Did she give you
209
00:10:29,962 --> 00:10:32,331
a hard time?
>> Sally: Not at all.
210
00:10:32,398 --> 00:10:36,836
No.
And as for how I feel,
211
00:10:36,902 --> 00:10:44,844
it's wonderful.
>> Mariah: Hi.
212
00:10:44,910 --> 00:10:47,613
Nick, asked me to bring
you this from the bar.
213
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:50,816
I pointed him towards some
muckety mucks over there.
214
00:10:50,883 --> 00:10:54,587
His job is to mingle
and to hype you up.
215
00:10:54,653 --> 00:10:57,023
>> Sharon: Well, thank you.
How are you?
216
00:10:57,089 --> 00:10:58,924
How's everything going?
>> Mariah: It's great.
217
00:10:58,991 --> 00:11:02,161
Uh, the press is here.
So, I gave the green light
218
00:11:02,228 --> 00:11:05,564
to start passing drinks.
And then in a little bit,
219
00:11:05,631 --> 00:11:07,733
I'm gonna signal you
for a short speech.
220
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,702
So, your job is just
to schmooze for now.
221
00:11:09,769 --> 00:11:11,871
And then at the end,
we're gonna pass out the
222
00:11:11,937 --> 00:11:17,243
Jabot gift bags full of goodies.
And here is Jabot now. Hi, guys.
223
00:11:17,309 --> 00:11:19,478
>> Jack: Hi, Sharon.
>> Sharon: Hi.
224
00:11:19,545 --> 00:11:21,447
>> Jack: Congratulations.
>> Sharon: Thank you so much.
225
00:11:21,514 --> 00:11:23,716
>> Jack: We could not be happier
for you with this new
226
00:11:23,783 --> 00:11:25,818
chapter in your life.
>> Diane: It's very exciting,
227
00:11:25,885 --> 00:11:28,087
although I'm not sure
I forgive you for stealing
228
00:11:28,154 --> 00:11:31,624
Mariah away from us.
I was telling Jack earlier that
229
00:11:31,690 --> 00:11:35,194
you're really hard to replace.
>> Sharon: She is irreplaceable,
230
00:11:35,261 --> 00:11:37,930
but you won't get any
apologies from me.
231
00:11:37,997 --> 00:11:40,633
All's fair in business.
>> Jack: Well, you've done
232
00:11:40,699 --> 00:11:43,569
a wonderful job, starting
with the digital invitation.
233
00:11:43,636 --> 00:11:45,504
>> Sharon: Oh,
wasn't that clever?
234
00:11:45,571 --> 00:11:47,606
That was all her idea.
>> Mariah: I mean,
235
00:11:47,673 --> 00:11:49,608
how are you gonna launch a
tech company with paper invites?
236
00:11:49,675 --> 00:11:51,277
Am I right?
>> Jack: Well,
237
00:11:51,343 --> 00:11:53,412
you are missed at Jabot.
>> Mariah: I'm sorry to leave
238
00:11:53,479 --> 00:11:56,315
you guys on the lurch,
but I had to go with
239
00:11:56,382 --> 00:11:59,051
my most favorite mogul.
>> Jack: Working with
240
00:11:59,118 --> 00:12:03,389
family is special.
No argument here.
241
00:12:03,456 --> 00:12:07,059
>> Billy: Hi.
Uh, two champagnes, please.
242
00:12:07,126 --> 00:12:09,128
>> Adam: Chelsea.
>> Chelsea: Hey.
243
00:12:09,195 --> 00:12:11,730
>> Adam: Glad to see you.
I actually, uh,
244
00:12:11,797 --> 00:12:14,800
meant to call you earlier.
>> Chelsea: Is everything okay?
245
00:12:14,867 --> 00:12:16,802
>> Adam: Yeah, I just
wanted to talk about
246
00:12:16,869 --> 00:12:19,138
Connor's latest report card.
You know, it's not the A's
247
00:12:19,205 --> 00:12:21,874
that we're used to seeing,
so I was a little worried.
248
00:12:21,941 --> 00:12:24,477
>> Chelsea: He's just getting
used to his new school, Adam.
249
00:12:24,543 --> 00:12:26,545
You have to let him
find his rhythm.
250
00:12:26,612 --> 00:12:30,683
>> Adam: I guess you are right.
>> Sally: Connor's a great kid.
251
00:12:30,749 --> 00:12:33,018
>> Chelsea: Well,
he's a big fan of yours.
252
00:12:33,085 --> 00:12:36,355
>> Sally: The feeling is mutual.
>> Adam: Billy,
253
00:12:36,422 --> 00:12:39,558
I heard you left Jabot.
That was fast.
254
00:12:39,625 --> 00:12:41,660
>> Billy: Yeah, it was.
Although, I lasted longer
255
00:12:41,727 --> 00:12:44,296
than you did.
>> Adam: Do you have
256
00:12:44,363 --> 00:12:46,232
an office pool on how long
you're gonna last, uh,
257
00:12:46,298 --> 00:12:48,367
back at Chancellor-Winters?
>> Billy: Maybe.
258
00:12:48,434 --> 00:12:50,536
I'm not aware, you know,
I'm not a gambling man anymore.
259
00:12:50,603 --> 00:12:53,205
Although, if you're looking for
a job, I can put a good word in.
260
00:12:53,272 --> 00:12:56,008
Not sure it'll help, but...
>> Adam: No, thanks.
261
00:12:56,075 --> 00:12:59,678
Nothing can rival my co-CEO job
at Newman.
262
00:12:59,745 --> 00:13:02,281
>> Chelsea: What?
Oh, that's big news.
263
00:13:02,348 --> 00:13:04,717
I had no idea.
>> Adam: Yep.
264
00:13:04,783 --> 00:13:07,286
Back in the,
uh, family business.
265
00:13:07,353 --> 00:13:10,556
>> Sally: Yeah, he and Nick are
doing great working together.
266
00:13:10,623 --> 00:13:14,693
>> Adam: Well, so far so good.
But Sally's design business
267
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,163
is really taking off
and it's something that
268
00:13:17,229 --> 00:13:19,298
she built from scratch,
all on her own.
269
00:13:19,365 --> 00:13:21,667
Not like,
uh, sliding back into a family
270
00:13:21,734 --> 00:13:26,138
business like you and me.
It's, uh, it's all her.
271
00:13:27,339 --> 00:13:33,646
>> Devon: Wow.
Who are you looking for?
272
00:13:33,712 --> 00:13:35,814
>> Abby: No, I mean,
I just still kind of feel
273
00:13:35,881 --> 00:13:38,284
awkward at these things about
running into Chance.
274
00:13:38,350 --> 00:13:41,053
>> Devon: Oh,
well, I don't see him.
275
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,390
>> Abby: Well, he would never
miss Sharon's big night.
276
00:13:44,456 --> 00:13:50,462
I wonder where he is.
>> Phyllis: So, about Chance?
277
00:13:50,529 --> 00:13:52,798
>> Summer: Okay, fine.
You're right.
278
00:13:52,865 --> 00:13:55,701
I didn't want to see Chance with
Sharon at the party.
279
00:13:55,768 --> 00:13:59,672
And can that please be the
end of that conversation?
280
00:13:59,738 --> 00:14:01,941
>> Phyllis: Well, I understand
that you don't want to make
281
00:14:02,007 --> 00:14:05,811
a play for Chance at that party,
but that doesn't mean that--
282
00:14:05,878 --> 00:14:07,580
>> Summer: No, Mom,
please, enough.
283
00:14:07,646 --> 00:14:09,782
I don't want any more of
your advice to go for it.
284
00:14:09,848 --> 00:14:12,151
Which by the way, Sharon
heard you giving that to me.
285
00:14:12,218 --> 00:14:14,587
Very unhelpful.
>> Phyllis: Well,
286
00:14:14,653 --> 00:14:16,755
that's very unfortunate.
>> Summer: It is unfortunate.
287
00:14:16,822 --> 00:14:20,859
Luckily, she was relatively cool
about it.
288
00:14:20,926 --> 00:14:24,163
>> Phyllis: I mean,
I stand by my advice, I do.
289
00:14:24,230 --> 00:14:27,066
You know, and that she
was so relatively cool about it,
290
00:14:27,132 --> 00:14:29,435
should tell you something.
Obviously, she's not
291
00:14:29,501 --> 00:14:32,938
that interested in him.
Why should you give up your shot
292
00:14:33,005 --> 00:14:36,508
at happiness when Sharon's not
even going to fight for her man?
293
00:14:36,575 --> 00:14:38,310
>> Summer: You know what?
I think she was kind
294
00:14:38,377 --> 00:14:40,379
of cool about it because she was
considering the source.
295
00:14:40,446 --> 00:14:42,815
She knew the advice
was coming from you.
296
00:14:42,881 --> 00:14:44,583
And honestly,
you know what, Mom?
297
00:14:44,650 --> 00:14:48,354
I'm glad that it happened
because it kind of gave me
298
00:14:48,420 --> 00:14:51,490
this opening to shoot
my shot with Chance
299
00:14:51,557 --> 00:14:58,097
and I did.
I asked him to lunch and
300
00:14:58,163 --> 00:15:03,002
I gotta respect the fact
that he said no.
301
00:15:03,068 --> 00:15:05,738
>> Phyllis: Well,
there is no problem with two
302
00:15:05,804 --> 00:15:10,276
friends sharing a meal together.
I just want you to be happy.
303
00:15:10,342 --> 00:15:12,811
>> Summer: Well, it's not
gonna be with Chance.
304
00:15:12,878 --> 00:15:16,448
>> Phyllis: I'm so mad at Kyle.
>> Summer: Okay, where
305
00:15:16,515 --> 00:15:19,518
is that coming from?
>> Phyllis: I am so mad at him.
306
00:15:19,585 --> 00:15:23,922
I mean, him going on and on and
on about how wrong you
307
00:15:23,989 --> 00:15:27,760
were for being loyal to me while
he did the same exact thing with
308
00:15:27,826 --> 00:15:33,065
his sorry excuse for a mother.
And then he cheated on you.
309
00:15:33,132 --> 00:15:35,434
It's because of him that
you're doubting that you deserve
310
00:15:35,501 --> 00:15:37,436
a chance at happiness.
>> Summer: Look, Mom,
311
00:15:37,503 --> 00:15:39,938
I don't want to hear it anymore.
I don't want you to keep telling
312
00:15:40,005 --> 00:15:42,107
me that I should just keep
going after this guy.
313
00:15:42,174 --> 00:15:45,044
I don't want to do it.
I played dirty.
314
00:15:45,110 --> 00:15:47,379
I crossed lines to get
what I want in the past.
315
00:15:47,446 --> 00:15:49,281
>> Phyllis: Okay. All right.
>> Summer: Well, that's
316
00:15:49,348 --> 00:15:51,450
just not me anymore.
I'd like to think that
317
00:15:51,517 --> 00:15:54,887
I've grown beyond it.
And if I took your advice now,
318
00:15:54,953 --> 00:15:57,790
I would be ashamed of myself.
>> Phyllis: Oh, my goodness.
319
00:15:57,856 --> 00:16:02,094
Was that a slam?
Was that a hit on me?
320
00:16:02,161 --> 00:16:06,799
Well, let me tell you something.
I will never, ever regret
321
00:16:06,865 --> 00:16:07,866
going after what I want.
322
00:16:14,173 --> 00:16:16,342
>> Summer: Mom, can you relax?
It was not a jab at you. >>
323
00:16:16,408 --> 00:16:18,043
Phyllis: It sounded like a jab.
It sounded like you were
324
00:16:18,110 --> 00:16:23,248
calling me immature.
>> Summer: I was not. I wasn't.
325
00:16:23,315 --> 00:16:25,818
Trust me, I know that
I wouldn't even be here if you
326
00:16:25,884 --> 00:16:30,089
hadn't crossed some lines.
>> Phyllis: Wow.
327
00:16:30,155 --> 00:16:34,927
You know, Summer,
you were born of love
328
00:16:34,993 --> 00:16:39,365
and love alone.
It's the same kind of love
329
00:16:39,431 --> 00:16:43,502
I want for you in your life.
>> Summer: And I will have
330
00:16:43,569 --> 00:16:49,174
that when the time is right.
And I'm okay with being
331
00:16:49,241 --> 00:16:55,147
alone until then.
Oh, I gotta go.
332
00:16:55,214 --> 00:16:57,516
I gotta finish up some work
before I call it a night.
333
00:16:57,583 --> 00:17:03,255
>> Phyllis: Okay.
You know I only love you, right?
334
00:17:03,322 --> 00:17:07,259
And I want you to have every bit
of happiness that you deserve.
335
00:17:07,326 --> 00:17:12,564
And you deserve so much.
You know that, right?
336
00:17:12,631 --> 00:17:19,405
>> Summer: I hope that you know
that I want that for both of us.
337
00:17:19,471 --> 00:17:22,674
Goodnight, Mom.
>> Phyllis: Goodnight.
338
00:17:40,392 --> 00:17:42,194
>> Jack: Well,
you're both looking well.
339
00:17:42,261 --> 00:17:44,129
I guess this new job agrees
with you, huh?
340
00:17:44,196 --> 00:17:46,064
>> Billy: Uh,
you know, no complaints.
341
00:17:46,131 --> 00:17:48,200
Let's say that.
>> Diane: Mm. How nice for you.
342
00:17:48,267 --> 00:17:50,135
>> Abby: Hi.
>> Jack: Hi, Abby.
343
00:17:50,202 --> 00:17:52,604
Hey, Devon, we were just talking
about how my brother's
344
00:17:52,671 --> 00:17:55,374
doing at his new job
at Chancellor-Winters.
345
00:17:55,441 --> 00:17:57,910
>> Devon: Oh,
yeah, so far so good.
346
00:17:57,976 --> 00:18:00,679
He's familiar with us,
so he's hit the ground running.
347
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:02,948
>> Abby: You know what?
I anticipate nothing
348
00:18:03,015 --> 00:18:04,817
but success.
>> Chelsea: Me too.
349
00:18:04,883 --> 00:18:07,586
>> Diane: Um, Devon, I'm sure
this is a sensitive subject,
350
00:18:07,653 --> 00:18:09,488
but we're all still
worried about Tucker's
351
00:18:09,555 --> 00:18:12,858
intentions towards Jabot.
He's been awfully quiet since
352
00:18:12,925 --> 00:18:15,394
the news of his scandal broke.
Do you have any
353
00:18:15,461 --> 00:18:17,696
insights about that?
>> Jack: I wouldn't mind
354
00:18:17,763 --> 00:18:19,731
hearing that myself.
>> Billy: Be nice to know
355
00:18:19,798 --> 00:18:21,266
if he's coming after
Chancellor-Winters still.
356
00:18:21,333 --> 00:18:23,569
>> Devon: Yeah, I agree.
I'd love to know all that too,
357
00:18:23,635 --> 00:18:26,138
but, uh, we're gonna have to
find that out from someone else
358
00:18:26,205 --> 00:18:28,340
because we don't speak anymore.
>> Jack: Oh?
359
00:18:28,407 --> 00:18:30,108
>> Devon: Yeah.
>> Jack: Well,
360
00:18:30,175 --> 00:18:32,311
I'm sorry to hear that.
I know Ashley will be too.
361
00:18:32,377 --> 00:18:35,180
She always felt that his
relationship with you and Dom
362
00:18:35,247 --> 00:18:39,251
was Tucker's one saving grace.
>> Devon: Well, he's gonna
363
00:18:39,318 --> 00:18:41,854
have to save himself these days,
if that's even possible.
364
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,989
>> Diane: Well, I guess
no one knows Tucker's
365
00:18:44,056 --> 00:18:46,525
goals at this point.
>> Abby: Well, you know what?
366
00:18:46,592 --> 00:18:49,394
I declare this
a Tucker-free zone.
367
00:18:49,461 --> 00:18:51,730
This is Sharon's big night.
>> Diane: Yes,
368
00:18:51,797 --> 00:18:53,699
that's a good idea.
And I have to say the signature
369
00:18:53,765 --> 00:18:55,234
cocktails are delicious.
>> Billy: That does
370
00:18:55,300 --> 00:18:57,135
look good and there's a tray
right behind me,
371
00:18:57,202 --> 00:18:59,238
so I'll see you in a second.
>> Abby: Yeah,
372
00:18:59,304 --> 00:19:01,273
let's go say hi to Nick.
>> Devon: Let's do it.
373
00:19:01,340 --> 00:19:03,709
>> Jack: Hey, at the risk
of being a little blunt,
374
00:19:03,775 --> 00:19:07,980
how's Billy really doing?
>> Chelsea: You really love
375
00:19:08,046 --> 00:19:10,616
your brother, don't you?
I can hear the concern
376
00:19:10,682 --> 00:19:13,519
in your voice.
>> Jack: I do love him.
377
00:19:13,585 --> 00:19:17,022
And I am concerned that he has
made an impetuous decision based
378
00:19:17,089 --> 00:19:20,492
on his feelings for me.
>> Chelsea: You don't have
379
00:19:20,559 --> 00:19:23,262
to worry about Billy.
I know this may be hard to hear,
380
00:19:23,328 --> 00:19:26,398
but I-- I really think leaving
Jabot has been good for him.
381
00:19:26,465 --> 00:19:28,767
>> Jack: Okay.
That does sting a little bit.
382
00:19:28,834 --> 00:19:31,370
But you know what?
If it's true, I'm all for it.
383
00:19:31,436 --> 00:19:33,972
>> Chelsea: I think Billy
is in this wonderful phase
384
00:19:34,039 --> 00:19:37,609
of new possibilities,
you know? Creating his own ideas
385
00:19:37,676 --> 00:19:41,179
instead of reacting to
what he thinks you want.
386
00:19:41,246 --> 00:19:43,482
He's trusting his instincts,
which are better than
387
00:19:43,549 --> 00:19:45,517
he gives himself credit for.
And he's brilliant
388
00:19:45,584 --> 00:19:49,288
and-- and thoughtful
and I think very happy.
389
00:19:49,354 --> 00:19:51,456
>> Jack: It seems I'm not
the only one here with
390
00:19:51,523 --> 00:19:55,327
affection for my brother.
If leaving Jabot is a good idea
391
00:19:55,394 --> 00:19:58,897
for him, I think spending time
with you is even better.
392
00:20:06,572 --> 00:20:10,442
>> Summer: Chance?
>> Chance: Hi. What's up?
393
00:20:10,509 --> 00:20:12,544
>> Summer: What are you
doing here?
394
00:20:12,611 --> 00:20:14,479
>> Chance: Um,
I'm just reading up on all
395
00:20:14,546 --> 00:20:16,715
things Chancellor-Winters.
It's still a pretty steep
396
00:20:16,782 --> 00:20:19,017
learning curve for me.
>> Summer: But shouldn't you
397
00:20:19,084 --> 00:20:31,530
be at Sharon's launch party?
>> Christine: Oh, God.
398
00:20:31,597 --> 00:20:35,367
Come on.
I'm not in the mood.
399
00:20:35,434 --> 00:20:38,804
I just wanted to come and have
a cocktail, catch up on emails.
400
00:20:38,870 --> 00:20:41,974
No drama.
>> Phyllis: I couldn't
401
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,209
agree more.
Which is why I'm buying.
402
00:20:44,276 --> 00:20:50,482
I'm buying.
I want to apologize to you.
403
00:20:57,189 --> 00:20:58,290
♪♪♪
>> Phyllis: So, um,
404
00:20:58,357 --> 00:21:01,193
I just wanted to apologize for
the way that I acted, um,
405
00:21:01,259 --> 00:21:04,429
last time we spoke.
It was actually Summer who
406
00:21:04,496 --> 00:21:06,698
got me to see that I was--
>> Christine: That you were
407
00:21:06,765 --> 00:21:08,700
behaving like
a bratty little teenager?
408
00:21:08,767 --> 00:21:12,404
>> Phyllis: Well, I wasn't
behaving like myself, you know?
409
00:21:12,471 --> 00:21:16,642
Seeing you and Danny, I just--
just fell into old patterns.
410
00:21:16,708 --> 00:21:19,111
That's all.
>> Christine: Yeah, like I said.
411
00:21:19,177 --> 00:21:21,747
>> Phyllis: Well, just
being combative and angry,
412
00:21:21,813 --> 00:21:25,217
it's-- it's not who I am.
It's not really who I am.
413
00:21:25,283 --> 00:21:26,852
>> Christine: Could have
fooled me.
414
00:21:26,918 --> 00:21:30,989
>> Phyllis: Listen,
um, I promised my kids
415
00:21:31,056 --> 00:21:35,293
that I would change.
And when I made that promise,
416
00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:39,631
I meant it.
I promised Danny.
417
00:21:39,698 --> 00:21:42,668
So here I am,
making peace with you.
418
00:21:42,734 --> 00:21:45,971
>> Christine: And here I am,
not buying it.
419
00:21:46,038 --> 00:21:48,974
I have lived through way
too many redemptions to
420
00:21:49,041 --> 00:21:51,677
believe for a second that
this one's for real.
421
00:21:51,743 --> 00:21:54,146
>> Phyllis: Okay, well, I'm
gonna take that as a challenge.
422
00:21:54,212 --> 00:21:57,482
I'm gonna-- I'm gonna pull
you over to Team Phyllis.
423
00:21:57,549 --> 00:22:01,019
Yeah, I'm gonna change
your opinion of me.
424
00:22:01,086 --> 00:22:05,390
>> Christine: Okay.
So, I guess you'll be
425
00:22:05,457 --> 00:22:09,861
wishing us a bon voyage.
>> Phyllis: Are you
426
00:22:09,928 --> 00:22:11,963
going somewhere?
>> Christine: Yeah, Danny and
427
00:22:12,030 --> 00:22:14,866
I are heading away this weekend.
Just the two of us.
428
00:22:14,933 --> 00:22:19,337
Some great wine,
a cabin with a fireplace.
429
00:22:19,404 --> 00:22:23,975
It was his idea.
He planned the whole thing.
430
00:22:24,042 --> 00:22:29,815
You-- you two are so close now.
I-- I thought that
431
00:22:29,881 --> 00:22:34,386
you would have known.
>> Summer: Chance,
432
00:22:34,453 --> 00:22:36,221
your new job can wait.
You can't be late
433
00:22:36,288 --> 00:22:38,857
for Sharon's event.
And I don't even think that
434
00:22:38,924 --> 00:22:41,026
you have time to change anymore.
You know what?
435
00:22:41,093 --> 00:22:42,861
It doesn't matter what you're
wearing is not as important
436
00:22:42,928 --> 00:22:47,099
as you being there for her.
>> Chance: Whoa, slow down.
437
00:22:47,165 --> 00:22:50,535
I'm not going to the launch.
>> Summer: Why?
438
00:22:50,602 --> 00:22:52,537
Did you guys get into
a fight or something?
439
00:22:52,604 --> 00:22:55,474
'Cause even if you did,
you need to just put it aside
440
00:22:55,540 --> 00:22:57,542
because this is too important.
You gotta be there for her.
441
00:22:57,609 --> 00:22:59,277
>> Chance: We didn't get in
a fight.
442
00:22:59,344 --> 00:23:02,180
>> Summer: Then why aren't
you going?
443
00:23:02,247 --> 00:23:06,852
>> Chance: We broke up.
>> Nick: Mariah really
444
00:23:06,918 --> 00:23:09,087
killed it.
But you know what I love
445
00:23:09,154 --> 00:23:12,524
most about this party?
It's drama-free.
446
00:23:12,591 --> 00:23:15,494
>> Sharon: And to that end,
thank you for being civil
447
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,829
with Adam.
It was a bit of a statement
448
00:23:17,896 --> 00:23:20,766
for him to bring Sally.
>> Nick: Oh, yeah.
449
00:23:20,832 --> 00:23:23,535
Adam is on top of
the world right now.
450
00:23:23,602 --> 00:23:28,006
Back in Dad's good graces
and clearly, Sally's too.
451
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:30,742
>> Sharon: And is it
driving you nuts?
452
00:23:30,809 --> 00:23:32,577
And before you fudge
your answer,
453
00:23:32,644 --> 00:23:34,412
yes, you were civil with
Adam when he arrived,
454
00:23:34,479 --> 00:23:37,149
but there was a bit of an edge.
>> Nick: Yes.
455
00:23:37,215 --> 00:23:40,085
I don't like seeing her with him
because I know he's going to
456
00:23:40,152 --> 00:23:43,855
do something to blow the
whole thing up or hurt her and
457
00:23:43,922 --> 00:23:46,024
I don't know,
I guess I'm also relieved.
458
00:23:46,091 --> 00:23:48,326
Because a happy Adam might
mean that he's not gonna
459
00:23:48,393 --> 00:23:51,363
cause problems at the office
for the next few weeks.
460
00:23:51,429 --> 00:23:56,601
You think I just jinxed it?
>> Jack: Is it presumptuous
461
00:23:56,668 --> 00:23:59,070
of me to assume that
the two of you have found
462
00:23:59,137 --> 00:24:04,242
a way to work things out?
>> Adam: We are headed in
463
00:24:04,309 --> 00:24:07,179
the right direction.
>> Devon: All right.
464
00:24:07,245 --> 00:24:09,748
So tell me, how is Aria doing?
>> Mariah: Oh, she's amazing.
465
00:24:09,815 --> 00:24:12,784
The hearing aids are
working perfectly.
466
00:24:12,851 --> 00:24:16,588
And she gets this smile on her
face every time we say her name.
467
00:24:16,655 --> 00:24:18,256
It just-- Oh,
it makes my heart melt.
468
00:24:18,323 --> 00:24:20,158
>> Tessa: When I sing
to her now, she responds.
469
00:24:20,225 --> 00:24:21,593
>> Devon: Yeah?
>> Tessa: Yeah.
470
00:24:21,660 --> 00:24:23,762
>> Devon: That's gotta be such a
special feeling for you both.
471
00:24:23,829 --> 00:24:27,365
>> Mariah: It's indescribable
joy. How's Dom doing?
472
00:24:27,432 --> 00:24:29,467
>> Devon: He's great.
He couldn't be better.
473
00:24:29,534 --> 00:24:31,570
He impresses me every day
with something new he's learned.
474
00:24:31,636 --> 00:24:34,472
>> Abby: Hi.
Is this the Proud Parents Club?
475
00:24:34,539 --> 00:24:37,242
>> Tessa: Oh, I wanted to
talk to you about the music
476
00:24:37,309 --> 00:24:41,446
classes you have Dominic in.
We wanted to sign Aria up.
477
00:24:41,513 --> 00:24:45,717
Oh, looks like you weren't
as thrilled with
478
00:24:45,784 --> 00:24:48,286
the classes as you were.
>> Devon: Oh, no.
479
00:24:48,353 --> 00:24:50,589
I love the class. I think
it's a really good teacher.
480
00:24:50,655 --> 00:24:53,091
>> Mariah: Uh, I am so sorry,
guys, there are a few things
481
00:24:53,158 --> 00:24:55,327
that I have to take care of.
One of which
482
00:24:55,393 --> 00:24:57,896
I need your help on.
So, I'll talk to you
483
00:24:57,963 --> 00:25:00,031
guys in a little bit. Sorry.
>> Abby: Yes.
484
00:25:00,098 --> 00:25:02,801
Go ahead and I'm gonna text you
all the info on the music class.
485
00:25:02,868 --> 00:25:04,469
>> Mariah: Yes, perfect.
>> Tessa: Oh, excellent.
486
00:25:04,536 --> 00:25:09,941
Thank you.
>> Abby: Your expression when
487
00:25:10,008 --> 00:25:14,145
they mentioned the music class.
Did Tucker show up again?
488
00:25:14,212 --> 00:25:18,149
>> Devon: No, he didn't.
He's listened to what I told him
489
00:25:18,216 --> 00:25:20,652
and he's staying away
from me and Dominic.
490
00:25:20,719 --> 00:25:22,387
>> Abby: Is that why
you made that face?
491
00:25:22,454 --> 00:25:25,857
Because you're disappointed?
>> Devon: No.
492
00:25:25,924 --> 00:25:28,226
Why would I be disappointed?
He did exactly what
493
00:25:28,293 --> 00:25:29,294
I asked him to do.
494
00:25:35,967 --> 00:25:40,272
>> Summer: I-- I
don't understand. I thought you
and Sharon were happy together.
495
00:25:40,338 --> 00:25:46,044
>> Chance: We were, but uh,
happy isn't everything, huh?
496
00:25:46,111 --> 00:25:48,880
>> Summer: What does that mean?
Uh, look, I'm sorry,
497
00:25:48,947 --> 00:25:51,283
I don't mean to pry.
I just-- I'm confused.
498
00:25:51,349 --> 00:25:55,120
You know, the last time I saw
you together, you seemed good.
499
00:25:55,186 --> 00:25:57,722
>> Chance: I agree.
>> Summer: She wasn't
500
00:25:57,789 --> 00:25:59,758
upset that I went to the
concert with you, was she?
501
00:25:59,824 --> 00:26:01,993
>> Chance: No, no, no, no.
It was nothing like that.
502
00:26:02,060 --> 00:26:05,063
No problems.
>> Summer: So, I mean,
503
00:26:05,130 --> 00:26:08,133
what was it? And look,
you can tell me to mind my
504
00:26:08,199 --> 00:26:10,268
own business if you want.
>> Chance: No, it's okay.
505
00:26:10,335 --> 00:26:12,837
I mean, it's not a big
secret or anything.
506
00:26:12,904 --> 00:26:15,440
We just realized we wanted
different things at this
507
00:26:15,507 --> 00:26:18,443
point in our lives.
Well, she realized it
508
00:26:18,510 --> 00:26:21,846
and she told me.
>> Summer: I'm sorry.
509
00:26:21,913 --> 00:26:24,616
>> Chance: Yeah, me too.
But you know what?
510
00:26:24,683 --> 00:26:28,486
She's a smart woman and
I think she might be right.
511
00:26:28,553 --> 00:26:30,555
>> Summer: It's not easy though,
is it?
512
00:26:30,622 --> 00:26:34,059
>> Chance: No, it's not.
We were having fun.
513
00:26:34,125 --> 00:26:36,695
It's a shame to cut
it short like that, but
514
00:26:36,761 --> 00:26:39,397
she knows her own heart better.
And I think it's best
515
00:26:39,464 --> 00:26:41,967
to take care of this now
rather than later.
516
00:26:42,033 --> 00:26:44,369
>> Summer: It still
hurts though.
517
00:26:44,436 --> 00:26:47,605
>> Chance: Yeah.
I am sorry to miss
518
00:26:47,672 --> 00:26:51,676
the launch party.
I wish her nothing but success.
519
00:26:54,412 --> 00:26:57,282
[ glass clinking ]
>> Mariah: Excuse me,
520
00:26:57,349 --> 00:27:01,886
ladies and gentlemen.
It is my pleasure to
521
00:27:01,953 --> 00:27:05,924
introduce the reason that
we are all here tonight,
522
00:27:05,991 --> 00:27:13,465
my mother, Sharon Newman.
[ people cheering ]
523
00:27:13,531 --> 00:27:16,735
>> Sharon: Thank you.
Thank you.
524
00:27:16,801 --> 00:27:20,305
And welcome everyone.
Thank you so much for coming.
525
00:27:20,372 --> 00:27:23,541
Tonight is a very big night
for me.
526
00:27:23,608 --> 00:27:27,746
And as I look around the room,
I realize how much support
527
00:27:27,812 --> 00:27:32,050
I've had getting here.
But there are two people
528
00:27:32,117 --> 00:27:36,988
I need to single out,
Mariah Copeland for coming
529
00:27:37,055 --> 00:27:41,960
to work with me and for planning
this amazing celebration.
530
00:27:44,863 --> 00:27:48,833
And Nick Newman,
who is no longer
531
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:52,637
working with me,
but he helped me
532
00:27:52,704 --> 00:27:56,041
get to this point.
I wouldn't be here without him.
533
00:28:01,179 --> 00:28:07,852
I think everyone here knows how
I came to own this company,
534
00:28:07,919 --> 00:28:13,191
but I won't dwell on that.
From dark places,
535
00:28:13,258 --> 00:28:18,096
light can shine.
So, I am relaunching the company
536
00:28:18,163 --> 00:28:22,367
I inherited as
a brand new venture.
537
00:28:22,434 --> 00:28:28,173
And with the mission to have
a positive impact on the world.
538
00:28:28,239 --> 00:28:31,776
I'm pleased to announce that
I will be donating half of all
539
00:28:31,843 --> 00:28:35,713
profits to causes that are
very close to my heart and
540
00:28:35,780 --> 00:28:40,285
will uplift the community,
namely raising awareness
541
00:28:40,351 --> 00:28:45,490
about underage alcohol abuse.
It is a cause that my daughter,
542
00:28:45,557 --> 00:28:51,096
Faith, asked me to invest in.
We will also be donating
543
00:28:51,162 --> 00:28:58,303
to Delia's Foundation
and to New Hope and the
544
00:28:58,369 --> 00:29:03,875
Abbott-Winters Foundation.
As well as many other
545
00:29:03,942 --> 00:29:08,079
incredible charities.
And we will not only
546
00:29:08,146 --> 00:29:12,083
be supporting these causes
with our monetary donations,
547
00:29:12,150 --> 00:29:14,752
but they will all be
receiving free software and
548
00:29:14,819 --> 00:29:21,626
technological support.
[ crowd cheering ]
549
00:29:21,693 --> 00:29:25,597
Now, I promise
to keep this short,
550
00:29:25,663 --> 00:29:29,067
but there was one more change
I felt was important
551
00:29:29,134 --> 00:29:33,638
to announce tonight.
Just to make this
552
00:29:33,705 --> 00:29:39,878
relaunch complete.
This company needs a new name,
553
00:29:39,944 --> 00:29:45,817
free from its past history.
One that connotes positivity,
554
00:29:45,884 --> 00:29:51,322
optimism, and making the
world a better place.
555
00:29:51,389 --> 00:29:59,230
I give you...
Cassidy First Technology.
556
00:30:14,179 --> 00:30:17,182
>> Phyllis: Uh, no,
I did not know about your trip.
557
00:30:17,248 --> 00:30:21,953
I did not know.
Um, if Danny, uh, had told me
558
00:30:22,020 --> 00:30:24,989
I would have pointed him in
a different direction for sure.
559
00:30:25,056 --> 00:30:28,359
I mean,
cabins are so cold and drafty.
560
00:30:28,426 --> 00:30:31,062
>> Christine: Oh, well, that's
what blankets are for, right?
561
00:30:31,129 --> 00:30:34,766
Ah, just to curl up in
front of a cozy fire.
562
00:30:34,832 --> 00:30:38,803
I can't wait.
The two of us need to get away
563
00:30:38,870 --> 00:30:43,241
from all the distractions here
and focus solely on one another.
564
00:30:43,308 --> 00:30:45,710
>> Phyllis: Well,
I am flattered that you
565
00:30:45,777 --> 00:30:48,947
consider me a distraction.
>> Christine: No, my definition
566
00:30:49,013 --> 00:30:51,950
of distraction
is more off-putting.
567
00:30:52,016 --> 00:30:54,452
>> Phyllis: Well, Danny doesn't
see me as off-putting.
568
00:30:54,519 --> 00:30:56,521
I guarantee you that.
>> Christine: See,
569
00:30:56,588 --> 00:30:59,123
right there, there it is.
Proof that you haven't changed,
570
00:30:59,190 --> 00:31:01,960
just trying to mark your
territory, even when it
571
00:31:02,026 --> 00:31:04,429
isn't yours to mark.
>> Phyllis: Well, you certainly
572
00:31:04,495 --> 00:31:06,197
haven't changed, Christine.
You're still acting
573
00:31:06,264 --> 00:31:08,366
superior to everyone.
>> Christine: Present
574
00:31:08,433 --> 00:31:17,342
company, definitely.
Thanks for the drink.
575
00:31:33,458 --> 00:31:36,261
>> Phyllis: Hey, Danny.
Listen, what are you
576
00:31:36,327 --> 00:31:37,328
doing right now?
577
00:31:43,768 --> 00:31:46,638
>> Summer: What's that smile
for? >> Chance: Oh, I was just
578
00:31:46,704 --> 00:31:49,340
thinking about you busting
in here all worried.
579
00:31:49,407 --> 00:31:51,976
Thinking that I spaced
on Sharon's party.
580
00:31:52,043 --> 00:31:54,379
I bet you would have had a tux
sent over here from Marchetti
581
00:31:54,445 --> 00:31:56,214
and demanded me to change
in the bathroom
582
00:31:56,281 --> 00:31:58,416
if that was the case, huh?
>> Summer: Uh, don't think that
583
00:31:58,483 --> 00:32:02,487
that wasn't my next suggestion.
>> Chance: I knew it. I knew it.
584
00:32:02,553 --> 00:32:05,857
>> Summer: No, I just know how
hard it is to launch a business.
585
00:32:05,923 --> 00:32:08,092
And how much you really
do need that support.
586
00:32:08,159 --> 00:32:09,894
>> Chance: Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
587
00:32:09,961 --> 00:32:12,363
I do feel bad not going,
but we talked about it and
588
00:32:12,430 --> 00:32:15,099
it just didn't seem right
given the circumstances.
589
00:32:15,166 --> 00:32:17,702
What about you though?
Why aren't you there?
590
00:32:17,769 --> 00:32:19,570
You could've gone.
>> Summer: No,
591
00:32:19,637 --> 00:32:21,773
I had a deadline at work,
so I just-- I was stopping
592
00:32:21,839 --> 00:32:24,108
in here to get some fuel.
>> Chance: Oh, well, just
593
00:32:24,175 --> 00:32:27,845
like that, I'm reminded that
I have 10 years' worth of annual
594
00:32:27,912 --> 00:32:30,982
reports to get to speed on.
>> Summer: Well, I will let
595
00:32:31,049 --> 00:32:35,086
you get back to that.
>> Chance: Well, thanks for
596
00:32:35,153 --> 00:32:37,355
looking out for me.
>> Summer: Yeah,
597
00:32:37,422 --> 00:32:40,758
that's no problem.
I will see you around.
598
00:32:40,825 --> 00:32:46,564
>> Chance: See you.
>> Summer: You know,
599
00:32:46,631 --> 00:32:49,567
you can't really work on
an empty stomach, can you?
600
00:32:49,634 --> 00:32:52,937
What if I, um,
bought you dinner?
601
00:32:55,173 --> 00:32:57,275
>> Jack: Sharon, we knew you
would do great things with this
602
00:32:57,342 --> 00:33:00,078
opportunity, but you have
exceeded all expectations.
603
00:33:00,144 --> 00:33:01,979
>> Devon: Yes.
And we both want to thank
604
00:33:02,046 --> 00:33:03,881
you on behalf of the
Abbott-Winters Foundation.
605
00:33:03,948 --> 00:33:05,850
>> Billy: And thank you for
your generosity towards
606
00:33:05,917 --> 00:33:07,785
the Delia Foundation.
It's incredible.
607
00:33:07,852 --> 00:33:11,322
>> Sharon: Please,
there's no thanks necessary.
608
00:33:11,389 --> 00:33:13,791
I've realized at this point
in my life that
609
00:33:13,858 --> 00:33:17,762
I want to give back.
When this company dropped
610
00:33:17,829 --> 00:33:21,566
on my lap, it felt like
an incredible burden at first.
611
00:33:21,632 --> 00:33:24,635
I couldn't imagine being
forced to manage a legacy
612
00:33:24,702 --> 00:33:28,840
from a man who ruined
so many people's lives.
613
00:33:28,906 --> 00:33:33,478
And then, I realized I could
turn it around and do
614
00:33:33,544 --> 00:33:37,915
something honorable with it.
>> Billy: Well, I can promise
615
00:33:37,982 --> 00:33:41,185
you, we'll put it to good use.
>> Devon: Yeah, you've made us
616
00:33:41,252 --> 00:33:42,887
all want to rise
to the occasion.
617
00:33:42,954 --> 00:33:45,857
>> Jack: Hear, hear.
>> Sharon: Jack, would you mind
618
00:33:45,923 --> 00:33:48,926
if I spoke with Billy and
Devon alone for a moment?
619
00:33:48,993 --> 00:33:51,462
>> Jack: Sure. Absolutely.
Congratulations again.
620
00:33:51,529 --> 00:33:54,632
>> Sharon: Thank you.
>> Devon: Jack.
621
00:33:54,699 --> 00:33:57,201
>> Billy: What's up?
>> Sharon: Okay, well, this is
622
00:33:57,268 --> 00:34:03,841
going to sound a little bit odd,
but, um, I had a dream the other
623
00:34:03,908 --> 00:34:07,812
night and it just got me
thinking about something
624
00:34:07,879 --> 00:34:11,749
that I wanna run by both of you.
>> Devon: Well, run it by us,
625
00:34:11,816 --> 00:34:14,719
please. We're curious.
>> Sharon: Well, most of it
626
00:34:14,786 --> 00:34:19,857
was just-- I don't know,
a crazy fever-like dream.
627
00:34:19,924 --> 00:34:24,829
But there was this one part
where Cassidy first joined
628
00:34:24,896 --> 00:34:30,468
forces with Chancellor-Winters.
You know, it's not a bad idea
629
00:34:30,535 --> 00:34:34,439
for us to combine
our technology and your content.
630
00:34:34,505 --> 00:34:37,408
It could be
an unbeatable combination.
631
00:34:37,475 --> 00:34:42,146
Would you ever
consider a partnership?
632
00:34:42,213 --> 00:34:44,315
>> Billy: Well, I mean,
I would love to hear more.
633
00:34:44,382 --> 00:34:46,784
>> Devon: Yeah, we're
definitely intrigued.
634
00:34:46,851 --> 00:34:50,188
>> Sharon: Okay, great.
Um, well, we don't need to rush
635
00:34:50,254 --> 00:34:52,924
into anything and of course,
I am still going to be
636
00:34:52,990 --> 00:34:55,726
donating to your charities,
even if we don't partner up.
637
00:34:55,793 --> 00:34:57,361
>> Devon: Well,
thank you for saying.
638
00:34:57,428 --> 00:34:59,330
How about I have my assistant
put something on the books
639
00:34:59,397 --> 00:35:00,965
for the three of us
to have a meeting?
640
00:35:01,032 --> 00:35:04,035
>> Sharon: That sounds great.
All right. Well,
641
00:35:04,101 --> 00:35:07,371
um, enjoy the rest of the party.
>> Devon: Thank you.
642
00:35:07,438 --> 00:35:17,014
>> Billy: Congrats, Sharon.
>> Sharon: Do you like it?
643
00:35:17,081 --> 00:35:19,217
>> Nick: I mean, you could
have given me a heads-up.
644
00:35:19,283 --> 00:35:21,285
I didn't expect to
get all misty-eyed at
645
00:35:21,352 --> 00:35:23,921
your cocktail party.
>> Sharon: I've been
646
00:35:23,988 --> 00:35:30,027
misty-eyed ever since Mariah
first showed me that.
647
00:35:30,094 --> 00:35:34,665
>> Nick: It's perfect.
The name, your whole mission.
648
00:35:34,732 --> 00:35:37,902
You're building
something special.
649
00:35:37,969 --> 00:35:41,072
>> Sharon: I feel like
Cassie's been guiding me.
650
00:35:41,138 --> 00:35:45,610
She's still a part of
our lives, every day.
651
00:35:45,676 --> 00:35:49,146
Do you feel that too?
>> Nick: Of course.
652
00:35:49,213 --> 00:35:53,618
She would be so proud of you.
And I have never been
653
00:35:53,684 --> 00:35:59,457
more in awe of you.
Tonight, you triumphed.
654
00:36:32,156 --> 00:36:35,159
Join us again for
"The Young and the Restless."
