>> Billy: Ash, I hope you can
understand that we have your
best interests at heart.
>> Traci: Please, sit down.
We're just trying to help.
>> Ashley: I think I'll stay
standing, thanks.
This is your idea of helping?
>> Billy: What do you want?
>> Tucker: I'd like to
listen in.
>> Billy: Fine, if that's what
you call it.
>> Ashley: Well, isn't this
just peachy?
The gang's all here.
So, this is an actual
intervention, right?
You included Tucker,
of all people.
You must be desperate.
And you agreed?
What makes you think I'm gonna
listen to anything he
has to say?
>> Jack: Whatever he is doing
here has nothing to do with us.
>> Tucker: That's true.
I came of my own volition.
I wanted to speak with your
family, but I think we all have
the same thing in mind.
>> Ashley: So, it's just a
complete coincidence that you're
all staring at me with so much
pity in your eyes?
>> Jack: No, none of us came
here to trap you.
>> Traci: Jack's telling
the truth.
>> Ashley: It's called a 51-50,
when you try
to put somebody away.
>> Tucker: Ashley...
>> Billy: I think it's time
to leave, Tucker.
>> Ashley: Yeah, you know what?
You don't speak for me.
Go ahead, Tucker.
What do you have to say
for yourself?
>> Tucker: Everyone in this room
is worried about you, Ashley.
>> Ash: This is bad.
This is so, so bad.
Tucker can't be there
right now.
What if she does what she's
planning on doing and she does
it right this minute?
>> Ashley: So?
>> Jack: Ashley,
just ignore Tucker.
He is leaving now.
>> Billy: Tucker.
>> Tucker: Ashley,
your family loves you.
They want what's best for you.
I think you should listen
to what they have to say.
♪♪
>> Ashley: So, you're in charge
of this little shindig, Tucker?
How do you feel about that,
Jack? I know.
I bet you're going to hold him
responsible for this little
get-together.
But don't think any of you are
gonna get off the hook.
I'm going to hold you all
responsible for this ambush
for a very long time.
>> Jack: Ambush?
We came together for you,
not against you, to discuss this
before we approached you.
You have my word.
>> Diane: Ashley,
think about it.
How could we have planned any
kind of ambush if we didn't
know where you were or what
time you were coming home?
>> Ashley: Please stop talking,
Diane.
It makes my head hurt every
time you open your mouth.
You guys, I mean, honestly, the
next time that you plan an
intervention, could you please
just run the guest list by me
first?
>> Traci: Ashley, Diane is
concerned about you, too.
>> Ashley: Well, I'm just
starting to choke on all this
concern, Traci.
>> Tucker: Ashley, do you recall
coming to me recently and
telling me you wanted to get
back together with me, both
professionally and personally?
>> Ashley: When was this
exactly?
>> Tucker: And then do you also
recall changing your mind
and telling me
you wanted nothing more to
do with me, only to flip back
yet again?
>> Ashley: Oh, God.
Billy, weren't you gonna
show him the door?
>> Tucker: And then also your
recent conversations with Audra.
>> Ashley: Oh, Audra.
The town bicycle.
She's got a brain the size of
a pea and you're gonna take
her word over mine?
>> Tucker: Okay, I'm gonna ask
one question, and then, yes,
I will leave.
Uh, just today, you said to
Audra that I should be worried
because she means to do me harm.
Not she, Audra.
She, you.
You were talking about
yourself, right?
As if Ashley were
someone else entirely.
Do you deny saying any of that?
>> Audra: Thanks again.
>> Sally: You made it.
>> Audra: Hey.
>> Sally: Hi.
>> Audra: Hey.
Of course I did.
Um, I need this
like you have no idea.
>> Sally: Oh.
Sensing a tone.
>> Audra: What kind of tone?
>> Sally: Like an I need to vent
before I explode tone.
Which I have some experience
with that.
And we cannot let you explode.
>> Audra: Just please remember
you asked for it.
Oh, but I--
I'm a mess.
Okay, I am a total mess.
My emotions are just all over
the place.
And, um, I-- I-- I just don't--
don't know what to do.
Um, I'm usually always
in control.
You know, always ahead
of the curve.
But this...
>> Sally: Tucker's found a way
to weasel his way back into your
heart, even though you said you
were absolutely done with him.
>> Audra: You know, hearing it
out loud makes it worse.
>> Sally: What did he do now?
>> Audra: He asked me
to marry him.
>> Ashley: Boy, this is
embarrassing.
Well, not for me.
For you.
I'm gonna sleep like a baby
tonight and get on with my life,
but all of you have to live
with how you've treated me.
And you should all be very
ashamed of yourselves.
>> Jack: We just wanna get you
through this.
>> Ashley: There's nothing to
get through.
>> Traci: That's not true.
Ashley, you've told me yourself.
>> Billy: Ashley, what Tucker
just said, is-- is that true?
Did all of those things happen?
>> Ashley: Would you please
not treat me like I'm some kind
of wounded bird?
It's insulting.
>> Tucker: Hey, I understand why
you feel targeted right now.
>> Ashley: Do you really?
Well, that's because
I am being targeted.
>> Tucker: Except that I can
back-up everything I just said.
Certainly the club has security
footage of you entering my room
uninvited when I wasn't there.
Uh, I have a text from you
saying you wanted to get
together and meet, followed by a
text a short time later saying
you never wanted to see me
again. Now, I'd prefer not
to have to produce that
kind of evidence
for your family, but if it will
do some good--
>> Ashley: I think you should.
I would actually like you to.
I want them all to see how I
entertain myself by toying with
him and how his little ego just
kind of laps it all up.
>> Tucker: This is what you said
to Audra.
I wrote it down.
Um, "I'm not who you think I am.
Just tell me where Tucker is so
I can warn him.
You have to keep Tucker away
from her."
Can you explain that to me?
To all of us?
>> Ashley: You're in my home
now, buddy.
How dare you interrogate me?
And you're all letting him.
>> Jack: This is not what
any of us want.
We wanna help you.
Just explain to us what's
happening to you.
>> Billy: Ashley, so far all
you've done is deflect
and distract.
There's gotta be a reason
for that.
>> Ashley: I have explained
it all.
You just are choosing not to
believe it.
And as far as what Audra has
said, I told you at the bar,
Tucker, I had a couple martinis
on an empty stomach.
I got a little silly,
so sue me!
>> Billy: Okay, Tucker, I think
we'll take up from here.
Please, a little discretion.
>> Tucker: Yes, of course,
but...
I have to take that threat very
seriously, no matter how much
booze is involved.
>> Ash: Are you kidding me?
What, I can't even get off this
stupid cot now?
I hate you!
You're evil!
Ashley!
Ashley, wake up!
Don't you understand?
She's gonna kill Tucker.
She's gonna blame it on Audra,
but she's gonna murder him!
Ashley!
Ugh!
>> Sally: I definitely did not
see that coming.
But since you're here having a
drink with me and not with him.
>> Audra: I might have choked.
>> Sally: Because the ring was
so bright and shiny?
But once you got your voice
back, you said...
>> Audra: No.
>> Sally: Yeah,
of course, you did.
>> Audra: Yeah, I'm-- I'm not
getting married, you know?
>> Sally: To him or to anyone?
>> Audra: No one.
Like, why should I?
>> Sally: That is a conversation
for the next drink.
But for now, just--
Why don't you tell me
what you said?
>> Audra: Well, that yes,
we have magic.
But we don't need marriage in
order to be great.
It might actually ruin us.
>> Sally: Okay, those are
very strong words.
>> Audra: And since when have we
ever been a normal couple?
You know, trying to bend to that
would be ridiculous.
We wouldn't be us anymore.
>> Sally: Yeah, I mean, I--
I see the logic in that, but...
I mean, Tucker's a romantic,
seems like, and he adores you.
And he definitely sees himself
as the marrying type,
even if you don't.
How did he take the rejection?
>> Audra: I'm not sure.
>> Sally: Well, you two just
sound great at communicating.
>> Audra: I-- I made it clear
to him that this wasn't
a rejection of him.
That we can still be a power
couple, just without all the
courthouse paperwork.
>> Sally: Did he buy that?
>> Audra: He was disappointed,
but he didn't push back.
>> Sally: I'm stunned.
'Cause from all I've heard,
he doesn't really strike me
as someone who takes no
for an answer.
>> Audra: I mean, he did vow
to stage more romantic proposals
until I was ready to give in.
>> Sally: Well, he's definitely
in for a lot of rejection if
you're dead set
against marriage.
But other than that, that does
sound pretty romantic.
Every waking moment for Tucker
will be about pledging his
undying love to you.
>> Audra: Yeah, except
one thing.
I truly believe that
Ashley is still on his mind.
>> Ashley: So now your
girlfriend is saying
I'm a danger to you?
That sounds like slander.
By the way,
there was no threat.
>> Traci: Ashley--
>> Ashley: Except Audra is
clearly threatened by me.
>> Traci: Take a breath.
We're not the enemy.
>> Ashley: I have given you all
the information you could
possibly need.
Whether you choose to believe
it or not is on you.
I can see you're upset.
I'm sorry.
I admit it, I haven't, um...
I haven't reacted well to any
of this.
Maybe it's just time for us
to close this chapter.
I think we should go hash this
out privately, and then we can
wash our hands of each other
for good.
>> Traci: No, no, no, you are
not leaving this house
right now.
>> Ashley: Please stop.
I know that you're here because
you care about me.
I'm grateful for that.
Can't we just talk?
Please?
I'll explain my behavior,
and then we can go
our separate ways.
I mean, that's the way
to end this.
>> Ash: Ashley!
Listen to me!
She's out there right now
asking to talk to Tucker alone
so she can kill him!
You have to wake up so you can
stop her!
You're our only hope!
Ashley!
>> Sally: So, this is just
a question.
But is Tucker really focused on
Ashley, or...
are you just looking for
a reason to turn him down?
>> Audra: I don't need an excuse
to not get married.
It's not like it's mandatory.
>> Sally: Okay, yeah, no,
that's settled.
Thank you.
Okay, so then, what?
He thinks that she has mental
issues or that she's faking it?
I'm confused.
>> Audra: Yeah, so was I.
Someone like Ashley Abbott
doesn't suddenly fall apart.
You know, that's why I thought
it was a ploy to grab Tucker's
sympathy.
You know, but now
I've seen first hand.
Something is just off.
She is not well, mentally
or emotionally.
>> Sally: That's a really
big assumption.
If you say that to the wrong
person, it could get really
messy.
>> Audra: Yeah, but I'm--
I'm saying it to you.
And I-- I have my reasons.
She was already spinning out
after Paris.
She told anyone with a pulse how
violent and evil Tucker was.
And then, you know, she
suddenly accepts the truth.
That Tucker's version of the
fight is actually what happened,
not her warped version of it.
You know, when it all started,
we thought that she was just
exaggerating to make Tucker
look bad.
But it turns out that,
you know, she actually believed
things happened the way
she said.
>> Sally: That's intense.
>> Audra: Okay, yeah, so she
starts apologizing, right?
Trying to reconnect with him,
wanting to start over.
>> Sally: Wait, just like
forget everything?
Like all her assumptions
and fury?
>> Audra: Yeah, and then she
turns right around and tells
Tucker to stay away from her
forever. She's just...
>> Sally: Yeah, no, those are
some very mixed messages.
>> Audra: Yeah, back and forth.
You know, she goes from
trying to mark her territory
to pretending like she
never said a word.
>> Sally: Yeah, I mean, that's
not normal behavior.
Definitely not for Ashley.
>> Audra: And then today,
things got so wild.
She kept talking about herself
in the third person.
She-- she kept saying things
like, oh, she's pretending like
she still loves Tucker,
but it's all a lie.
All she wants to do
is hurt Tucker.
It is so bizarre.
And then she said something
about she thinks that that's
the only way
we can protect Ashley.
>> Sally: She?
Okay, this gives me goosebumps.
>> Audra: And check this out.
Then Tucker showed up and she
changed her entire demeanor.
She pretended like
it was all a joke.
Look, I've been through bad
breakups before, so I know how
they can mess you up.
But she's beyond that.
>> Sally: Yeah, based on all
this, you're not wrong.
Tucker probably is focused on
Ashley, but not in like
a "I love you
and I want you back way."
More like I'm worried
and you need help.
Man, this must be breaking
her family's heart.
>> Billy: Yeah, Ashley, going
off with Tucker right now
is not a good idea.
>> Traci: You absolutely need
your family around you
right now.
>> Jack: You don't owe him
anything. No reassurances,
no explanations.
You-- you have nothing
to discuss with him.
>> Ashley: You have no idea
what I think or what I feel.
>> Traci: Then tell us.
>> Ashley: Why?
So you can judge me?
>> Billy: We're not trying
to judge you, Ash.
>> Ashley: Really?
Even if I've decided I need to
give my marriage another chance?
>> Jack: You don't want him
back. You can't.
>> Ashley: Come on, Tucker,
let's go.
Let's go talk.
>> Tucker: No, Ashley,
I'm sorry, they're right.
Meeting in private would be
a mistake.
Um...
there is something I think you
should know, that I think you
all should know.
I've asked Audra Charles
to marry me.
>> Audra: You know, Tucker is
all invested in Ashley's sanity
right now.
It's part of so many,
if not all, the conversations
that we have.
>> Sally: In between him
pledging his love to you and
buying you rings.
>> Audra: Yeah, actually, yes.
>> Sally: And that bugs you?
Makes you jealous?
>> Audra: Not jealous, exactly,
but it does make me wonder.
>> Sally: Go on.
>> Audra: Yeah, if Tucker's
sudden marriage proposal
was more about Ashley
and less about me.
>> Ashley: So, you asked her
to marry you?
>> Tucker: Mm.
>> Ashley: Is the ink even dry
on our annulment papers?
What'd she say?
>> Tucker: All you need to know
is that I proposed to her.
>> Billy: Okay, Tucker.
You're done.
>> Tucker: Yeah, so...
whatever we had, it's
in the past.
We're not gonna get it back.
And I think that's better
for all of us.
>> Jack: Gee, why do I get
the feeling that that's the real
reason you came by,
to drop this little bomb?
>> Tucker: No, Jack.
In fact, I was on the fence
about whether or not
to tell you at all.
To tell you.
But I decided that if the
notion that you and I might get
back together sometime in the
future is somehow contributing
to your conflict, then I
thought it would be best for
you to know,
for you all to know.
No, I came here to make
sure that you had your family's
support and that you all knew
what the situation was, and I
just sincerely hope, Ashley,
that you get the help you need.
>> Ashley: Oh, God.
>> Jack: As if we need you
to tell us anything
about our sister.
>> Diane: Okay, Tucker.
You've done your part.
Now, do everyone a favor
and just leave.
>> Jack: Ashley, please don't
get your back up.
We are all on your side.
Will you please,
finally, let us in?
>> Sally: So, you think that
Tucker proposed to you
because of Ashley?
I'm not really sure
I see the connection.
>> Audra: Well, you know,
that he was making a point.
"Oh, hi, Ashley.
Clearly, I am unavailable
and have moved on.
Now, please go see a shrink."
And a message to me.
"See how much I don't love
Ashley and do love you."
>> Sally: Wow.
Yeah, I mean, that's putting
a lot of meaning into,
will you marry me?
>> Audra: You know, I get why
he's concerned about
her mental health.
He feels responsible for
whatever she's going through.
You know, he insisted that she
was the center of his universe.
Made a huge show of basically
worshipping her.
And so, they go off to their
little honeymoon.
It goes to pieces.
And so, I think he feels like
he's the reason why she's
fallen apart.
>> Sally: I mean, after
everything I've heard about
Tucker, I-- I--
I didn't know he had it in him
to feel bad about something
like that.
>> Audra: Same.
But he's trying to play
the good guy, you know?
Pushing her to get help.
But she's just fighting it
every step of the way.
>> Sally: Yeah, I mean,
sometimes the people that need
help are the last ones
to admit it.
But she has a family that loves
her, and I feel like she would
listen to them way before she
would listen to Tucker.
>> Audra: Yeah, I tried to
convince him of that.
I almost thought I did.
But he just can't let it go.
>> Sally: So, where is he now?
>> Audra: I know
exactly where he's at.
>> Sally: Well, wherever he
went, he's back now.
>> Audra: Hm.
>> Billy: Look, um,
Tucker's timing was awful.
It always is, but the fact that
we are all on the same page as
him, that says something, Ash.
>> Ashley: Flip flopping on your
opinion of Tucker.
Somebody get Billy
a straitjacket quick.
>> Traci: Ashley,
Ashley, stop it.
Okay, we get that you're angry.
And I just have to believe
you're acting this way because
deep down inside, you know
we're right.
Think about it.
Your threats to Audra, you can
claim that they're a joke,
but taken at face value,
how would they look to you?
That Tucker has to be careful,
and then talking about yourself
in such a strange way.
>> Ashley: Why do you have to
take everything I say
so seriously?
>> Traci: There is no humor in
suggesting that your ex has
to be careful and that "she"
is going to hurt him.
What did these threats
even mean?
You told me that you were gonna
get close to Tucker and try
to take his company
away from him.
Is that what these threats
are all about?
And how are you gonna steal
Tucker's company?
>> Ashley: What I told you
was in confidence, right?
And it was a joke that you took
and you twisted it into
something else.
>> Billy: No, no, Traci
did the right thing.
Okay, that's information that
we need to know as your family.
>> Ashley: Oh, right.
I-- I bet I'm gonna be
a character in your next novel.
Right, Trace?
The sister of the heroine,
the deranged sister,
who you have to stick
in the tower so she can
howl at the moon.
Howl!
>> Traci: Oh, just stop it,
Ashley, stop.
>> Ashley: I don't even know
who you are.
>> Traci: Well, I'll tell you.
I am your sister
who adores you, and I
hate that I had to betray your
confidence, but I'm terrified
for you and I needed the
family's advice.
These people, your family, who
love you and care about you as
much as I do.
>> Ashley: These people,
so loving and so nurturing,
as if this is my safe place.
>> Traci: Ashley, I only said
what I did because I realized
I can't handle this myself.
You're having blackouts.
This is so serious.
And you promised me
you would see a doctor.
>> Ashley: You didn't give me
a chance, though,
did you, Traci?
You ran right to Jack and Billy
and even Diane.
Talk about betrayal.
I don't think I can ever
forgive you.
I just want to know.
I wanna hear it from you.
Do you think I'm nuts?
>> Ash: You have to wake up.
Please.
She's completely out of
control, Ashley.
She's even threatening to make
me disappear.
But she can't do that, right?
She's not stronger than you.
She can't, right?
>> Ashley: To see you all
looking at me like this,
I've never felt so alone.
>> Tucker: Hello, ladies.
Hi.
>> Sally: Hi.
>> Tucker: Sally, right?
>> Sally: Yeah, Tucker.
>> Tucker: Yes, that's me.
>> Sally: Nice to meet you.
>> Tucker: Nice to meet you,
finally, yeah.
>> Audra: So,
where have you been?
>> Tucker: Oh, in my secret
lair, doing the usual, you know,
scheming, plotting.
Being generally nefarious.
You know how it is.
>> Sally: Yeah, naturally.
Right, yeah.
Well, I'm, uh, I'm actually on
my way out, but it's really
nice to meet you.
>> Tucker: Nice to meet you.
>> Sally: And we'll talk soon.
>> Audra: Yeah, okay.
>> Tucker: Good night.
>> Sally: Bye, good night.
>> Tucker: I would love a drink.
Um, looks like I need to
catch up with you, though.
>> Audra: Hm.
>> Tucker: Hi there.
How are you?
Uh, scotch. Neat. Double.
>> Audra: Water.
>> Tucker: Yeah.
>> Audra: Thank you.
So?
>> Tucker: So, I went
to the Abbott house.
>> Audra: They didn't
throw you out?
>> Tucker: No, I was able
to leave willingly.
I did my best to let them know
what the situation was
with Ashley.
>> Audra: Oh, I see.
How did that go?
>> Tucker: Oh,
a barrel of laughs, man.
Thank you very much.
When I got there, Ashley was
already there, and it appeared
as if they were in the middle
of an intervention.
>> Audra: Hm.
>> Tucker: Yeah.
>> Audra: That sounds brutal.
But at least her family knows
she has a problem
and are trying to solve it.
>> Tucker: Except that a cup
of tea and a warm shoulder
to cry on is not gonna do it.
She needs professional help.
And the sooner, the better.
>> Audra: Right.
So, you went there only to find
Ashley's own family already has
it under control.
Yeah, no need
for you to be there.
Just an outsider in the way.
>> Tucker: Yes.
Thank you, Audra.
As subtle as always.
>> Audra: Meanwhile, I was left
venting to a friend.
>> Tucker: You vented?
>> Audra: Mm-hmm.
>> Tucker: What, pray tell,
did you vent about?
Not about little old me.
You would have nothing
to vent about me.
>> Audra: Oh, no.
I had plenty to unload.
How you just come with so much
baggage. You know,
how you think you
know everything about me, when
clearly you do not.
How you're romantic
and charming.
Just always choose just the
wrong moment to prove that
you're a good man.
Basically, I went on and on
about how maddening and
infuriating you can be.
>> Tucker: Mm-hmm.
Well, what can I say?
I'm a catch.
>> Traci: Ashley.
This is not an attack.
There is no one in this room
who thinks you've lost
your mind.
What we think is that something
serious is happening to you
that we don't understand.
And we're just trying to get
control of it.
>> Jack: Whatever it is,
we will deal with it.
>> Billy: Jack's right, Ashley.
You know, we're a full team
here for you.
>> Jack: We will see that you
get the help you need.
>> Ashley: Do you have any idea
what this is doing to me?
All the memories
it's bringing up.
You know, about Fairview.
When my brain was being
picked apart.
My life was just being picked
apart by strangers.
>> Traci: Okay, we're not
strangers. We're your family.
We love you.
>> Ashley: I know you say
you want to help me, but the way
you're looking at me, I mean,
it just makes me feel like
you think I'm broken and like
I'm just beyond repair.
>> Jack: Ash, I hate seeing you
like this.
I just want to take
your pain away.
We all do.
But none of us can do that on
our own.
We're just not equipped.
For you to find yourself in
a strange hotel room with no
recollection of how you got
there, that had to be
terrifying.
And it's not something we can
ignore. We can't just hope that
whatever caused the blackout
will go away.
Next time, you'll wake up in an
even worse place.
Or God forbid, not wake up.
And we have to deal with it
now, before it gets worse.
>> Ashley: Worse?
You know, it's interesting that
you should say that.
I think everyone in here is
aware of the sketchy situations
you've found yourself in over
the years.
Are you sure you want to start
pointing fingers?
>> Jack: If we're talking about
my use of painkillers,
there's an explanation
for my actions.
I sought help.
I got clean.
>> Ashley: That any one of you
could judge me is just too much.
You are looking for trouble
that just isn't there.
>> Billy: No, we're not looking
for trouble.
We see it.
And I think you do too.
>> Traci: And this is about
finding solutions
and helping you.
>> Diane: You need to stop
lashing out because you're
fearful and angry.
>> Ashley: I think I told you
to not talk.
>> Billy: Let's just back it up
a little bit, okay?
>> Ashley: No, I don't wanna
stop this. Why should we?
You want judgment, if that's
what you're after?
There's plenty of it
to go around.
I think this evening
just got interesting.
>> Tucker: Did you tell Sally
about my proposal?
>> Audra: It might've come up.
>> Tucker: Hm.
And did you tell her as a
result, you tore my heart out of
my chest, threw it on the
ground and stomped all over it?
>> Audra: I made it very clear
to her that I didn't turn
you down.
I turned down the idea
of marriage.
>> Tucker: Yeah, you know,
I've been thinking, though.
Marriage, to me, would be
a completely different animal,
right?
So, I'm thinking maybe she
influenced you a little bit,
nudged you towards saying yes.
>> Audra: Unlike you,
she respects my decision.
>> Tucker: I respect
your decision.
I just don't agree with it.
>> Audra: Well, you're gonna
have to learn how to live with
it if you wanna be with me
because, you know, I'm worth
more than a trip to City Hall
or some big party.
>> Tucker: That you are.
>> Audra: Hm.
>> Tucker: I'm not gonna
lie to you, though.
It really hurt.
When you said no, it just--
I wanna spend the rest
of my life with you, Audra.
>> Audra: And all that is still
on the table.
But marriage is not.
>> Tucker: All right,
what the hell.
Here's to us being
unconventional.
>> Audra: Hey.
I still want everything
with you, okay?
>> Tucker: Okay.
>> Audra: Everything.
I just, uh...
this is what works for me.
>> Tucker: Then this is what you
shall have.
>> Audra: So, um...
do you wanna tell me more
about what happened
at the Abbott House?
>> Tucker: No, no.
No more.
I'm done.
Don't need to.
The guilt, weight,
has been lifted.
Whatever's going on with
Ashley, the Abbott's
will fix it.
>> Audra: You know, you never
had anything to feel
guilty about.
You didn't do anything wrong.
>> Tucker: Are you kidding?
Who are you talking to here?
But, you have my word.
I'm letting it go.
>> Audra: Look at me in my eyes
and say it.
[ chair scrapes ]
>> Tucker: I'm letting it go.
>> Audra: And now you know
Ashley is officially
her family's responsibility.
>> Tucker: And you know Ashley
isn't-- Oh, you didn't want me
to repeat that.
And I want you to know,
from this day, from this second
forward, all my attention,
all my focus,
is gonna be on...
this stunningly beautiful,
unmarried woman
who I'm just head over heels
in love with.
>> Ashley: Come on, guys,
bring it.
Let's see how you stand up to
all this scrutiny you've been
putting me under.
>> Diane: Ashley, please stop.
>> Ashley: Hey, Diane,
what was that name
you went under when you were
in Los Angeles?
Wasn't it Taylor?
Taylor, the friendly
neighborhood realtor.
You wanna talk about my sanity?
Didn't you have
a mental breakdown?
You faked your own death, bitch.
And then you left your only son
to grieve alone.
>> Diane: Okay, Ashley,
I did have a breakdown.
And then I got help.
And those years in therapy
saved me.
I have nothing to be ashamed of.
There is no shame
in getting help.
>> Ashley: Right, well, if this
is the result of all of that
therapy, I think I'm gonna pass.
By the way,
you are never, ever gonna be
a real member of this family
after what you did to Kyle.
>> Jack: That's enough.
>> Ashley: Oh, wait, I know what
this is.
I get it now.
You poisoned them against me,
didn't you?
You did.
You wanted to get me locked
away because you know that
I see right through you.
>> Diane: You don't really
mean that.
>> Ashley: Oh, I do really
mean that.
>> Jack: Diane cares about you.
Whether you believe it or not,
it is true.
>> Ashley: Jackie, how far
do you think the resentment
goes?
How far back do you think it
goes that you have for me?
Do you think it started when
you were just a little boy
and you realized that I was
actually our father's favorite?
>> Billy: Okay, Ashley.
>> Ashley: I mean, just how
bitter are you?
>> Billy: It's pretty clear that
you wanna keep pushing buttons
here and avoid the situation.
Okay, but, uh,
but we're all here for
you right now.
>> Ashley: Oh,
thank you so much.
It's so painfully obvious
why you would want to undermine
me, little brother.
You're just so thrilled that
I've been put on a lower peg
than you, right?
>> Billy: You feel better?
Yeah? 'Cause you've taken
a swipe at me now.
You've taken a swipe at Diane,
Jack.
The only person you haven't
taken a swipe at is-- is Traci,
because you can't do that.
Because she loves us all,
unconditionally, and she
doesn't want anything from you.
She's only here to help you.
So, can you admit
that you need help?
>> Ashley: What if Traci has
some deep-seated jealousy
for me?
I mean, it probably goes back
to when our father called me
his beauty.
>> Diane: Ashley, that's enough.
>> Ashley: Well, I mean,
honestly, it was
very insensitive of Dad.
>> Diane: All right, all right,
all right.
You wanna do this?
Fine.
You and me, Ashley, and we can
trade insults all night long,
and then maybe you'll wear
yourself out and stop hurting
these people who love you.
>> Ashley: Uh,
I can't stand being in the same
room with any of you.
I've gotta get out of here.
>> Jack: No.
>> Billy: Whoa, hey.
>> Jack: Stop, no.
You don't wanna talk right now?
Fine. We will all get some rest
and calmly discuss this
in the morning,
but you're not leaving.
>> Ashley: Get out of my way,
Jack.
So what?
I'm a prisoner in my own
home now?
>> Jack: None of us want this.
But if you won't seek help for
yourself, we will bring help
to you.
>> Ashley: Who are you calling?
>> Ms. Abbott: Who are you
calling, Jack?
Sharon, some other shrink?
You will not put me back
at Fairview.
>> Ash: Oh, gosh.
>> Ms. Abbott: You hear me?
>> Ash: Ashley, please,
you have to wake up.
Ashley, right now.
She's going to take us all down
with her.
Please, I don't want to leave
you for good.
Ashley!
Ashley, wake up!
