>> Ashley: Get out of my way!
>> Jack: No!
I'm staying right here
as long as it takes
until you realize this is
where you need to be right now.
[ Jack groans ]
Voicemail again.
>> Ash: Come on, Ashley.
Wake up, please.
We're running out of time.
>> Ashley: You have to stop!
♪♪
>> Kyle: Thank you.
>> Woman: Yeah.
>> Summer: Well, hello there.
>> Kyle: Summer, hey.
You meeting someone?
>> Summer: Mm, no. Just me. Why?
>> Kyle: It's a little late
past your bedtime, isn't it?
>> Summer: Oh, I couldn't sleep.
I'm starting to wonder if it's
a good idea or a bad idea
to live upstairs from a bar.
>> Kyle: Hmm.
>> Summer: Not having
a good night?
>> Kyle: I'm okay.
>> Summer: That's not
what I asked you.
[ Kyle scoffs ]
>> Kyle: I'm not having
the best night of my life. No.
>> Summer: Well...
would it make it better
or worse if I joined you?
>> Ashley: Are you gonna let
them get away with this?
Really? You're just
gonna stand there?
>> Traci: Honestly, I don't
know what I'm gonna do, Ashley,
you're breaking my heart.
But we don't have time for that.
We've got to find out
what's going on with you.
>> Ashley: I'll tell you what's
going on with me. I'm being held
hostage in my own home.
Now, I can understand this one
doesn't give a damn
about me, but you're
supposed to be my sister!
>> Diane: Ashley, I do care
what happens to you.
But you are hurting these people
who love you by attacking them
instead of letting them in.
>> Ashley: Just shut up!
This is abuse.
Plain and simple.
You say you love me,
then get them to back off.
>> Traci: Jack, it's too much.
It's too much.
This is not what I had in mind
when I called you together.
It's tearing her apart.
>> Jack: It's killing me, too.
What choice do we have?
>> Ashley: Don't talk about me
like I'm not here!
>> Traci: Who are you calling?
>> Jack: I am trying
to reach Sharon.
>> Billy: That's good.
She can tell us how to
turn this thing around.
>> Ashley: Well, I could
probably tell you that,
too, but I guess what
I have to say doesn't matter.
[ phone rings ]
>> Jack: Sharon, thank God.
>> Sharon: Jack, your message
sounded urgent.
What's wrong?
>> Jack: Look, I know it's late.
>> Sharon: Look, whatever it is,
I want to help.
>> Jack: Well, we have
a bit of a family emergency,
and we could really use
your expertise.
Is there any chance you could
come out to the house right now?
>> Sharon: No problem.
I'm on my way.
>> Jack: Thank you.
>> Ashley: Sharon's expertise?
In what? Pouring coffee?
Handing out muffins?
Why would you bring in
another outsider?
>> Jack: An outsider is exactly
what we need right now.
Someone with an objective
opinion who can help us
keep this from escalating
any further than it already has.
>> Ashley: What have
I done to you?
Why are you so afraid of me?
What crime have I committed?
All I'm trying to do
is live my own life, and it's
just thrown you into this panic!
>> Billy: Ashley, look, there's
something going on, okay?
And I think you know it, too.
And-- and you're trying
really hard to deny it.
I don't know if you're scared
or you're embarrassed,
but you don't have to be, okay?
We're your family. We love you.
We're just trying to help you.
>> Ashley: Don't try to act like
I'm supposed to just think
this is, like, normal.
When was the last time you were
locked in your house, Billy?
When was the last time you were
held against your free will?
>> Billy: Ashley, I'm not--
>> Ashley: Don't talk to me!
You're not listening to me,
I'm not going to listen to you.
>> Ash: We have to stop her.
>> Ashley: No one's listening
to me!
What I say doesn't matter.
You are all so vile
and so cruel, and
I don't know what I did to you
to make you treat me this way.
>> Traci: Ashley, I wish that
you could hear yourself.
See what we see.
Hear what we hear.
I know you're struggling.
But if you would stop
fighting us, we could get to
the bottom of this together.
>> Ashley: It doesn't matter
what I say.
It doesn't matter.
You are all believing something
that's not even real,
and you're just waiting
for little Dr. Sharon to--
to show up here and tell you
what you want to hear.
>> Jack: You promised Traci
you would speak to a
professional. This is a way
of fulfilling that promise.
>> Ashley: And I will, Jack!
I will! Someone of
my own choosing,
not your ex-wife, the barista!
>> Billy: Okay. Tomorrow,
we will get you a therapist
of your own choosing.
I promise you that.
>> Jack: Yes.
And our job right now
is to keep you safe,
to get you through tonight.
>> Ashley: Okay, sure.
Thank you so much.
And Sharon's going to
help me do that. Sharon.
She's not even
a practicing professional.
>> Traci: But she's trained
in this field, and she can
share her thoughts.
>> Ashley: Oh, she can share her
thoughts. Thoughts that matter
more than mine.
I don't know who you are.
You're not my family.
I will never forgive you
for this betrayal.
No.
>> Ash: Ashley, wake up!
[ Ash groans ]
Please wake up!
She's freaking out.
She's acting really weird.
She doesn't sound like you,
and they know it.
If you don't do something
really, really soon, they're
going to send us away to one of
those scary places, then I won't
be able to protect you,
but it's got to happen soon!
It has to happen soon
before it's too late.
Ashley!
[ Ash grunts ]
Ashley!
>> Diane: I know this is
breaking your heart,
but Ashley doesn't mean
what she's saying.
She's really not herself
right now.
>> Ash: Ashley!
Wake up!
>> Jack: Don't worry about me.
I'm worried about Ashley.
And you.
>> Diane: Me? I'm fine.
[ Jack sighs ]
>> Jack: I don't know what's
happening with my sister, but
there's no reason you should
have to put up with all of this.
In fact, if you wanted to spend
the night at the club,
I would understand that.
Maybe it's a good idea.
>> Diane: If you want me to go,
I'll go, but I'd rather stay.
You and I are in this together.
And I meant what I said.
If Ashley has more rage
than she needs to vent at me,
I can take it.
She's just so angry and upset.
I don't know if anything
productive can come from this.
She's in such a dark place.
>> Jack: And we have to
pull her back from that edge.
And I'm not going to let her
anywhere near you
until she calms down.
I am here to protect you.
I will always keep you safe.
You know that.
>> Diane: I know that.
And I love you for it.
But do you really think
it's a good idea to bring Sharon
into the mix, given how much
rage Ashley's feeling?
Those two have never exactly
cared for each other.
>> Jack: No, they haven't.
But you're right.
Ashley isn't herself right now.
As much as she hates all of us,
maybe she would
listen to someone else.
>> Diane: Yeah, but is Sharon
even qualified to handle this?
>> Jack: I trust her.
Maybe she can give us some
insight as to what Ashley's
going through, and we can
prepare her for what is next.
>> Ashley: If you care at all
about me, please just
get me out of this place.
[ Ashley groans ]
>> Traci: Ash! Ashley! Ashley!
>> Billy: Hey, hey, hey, hey!
It's okay. Hey.
[ Ashley grunts ]
It's all right.
>> Summer: Well, I won't force
you to tell me why you're
not having a good night.
>> Kyle: Mm. I appreciate that.
You won't force me,
but you will just sit there
quietly until I offer.
>> Summer: I assume
it's the same reason
I couldn't fall asleep.
>> Kylee: Oh. Which is?
>> Summer: We still haven't
found a nanny for Harrison.
>> Kyle: Yeah. Yeah, that--
Yeah, that-- that search
isn't going well, is it?
>> Summer: No.
>> Kyle: We have two adults
who both have full-time jobs
outside the home,
one very active child
who needs plenty of
looking after, and still
no nannies waiting in the wings.
>> Summer: You would think with
all the people we've met, we
would find at least one person
that Harrison doesn't glare at.
>> Kyle: Hmm, well, there is one
person he didn't hate.
It's just not someone that
we've interviewed.
>> Summer: Claire.
>> Kyle: Eh, kid can't stop
talking about her.
>> Summer: Funny. Neither can I.
>> Kyle: Those two really
clicked, which...
kind of makes sense
if you think about it.
>> Summer: Really? I didn't see
any clicking. At all. Mm.
>> Kyle: You didn't? I mean,
Harrison really liked her.
I think it was because she has
this childlike excitement about
everything the rest of us
take for granted, like going to
coffee with her mother
the first time we met her.
>> Summer: I didn't notice.
>> Kyle: Really?
I mean, she was like,
"Oh, boy, I get to
go out in public with my mother
like normal people."
I think it was because
our childhood was such
a horror show.
>> Summer: Wow, you must have
really been paying attention
to pick up on all of that
from just one meeting.
>> Kyle: I ran into Claire
and Victoria again at Society.
>> Summer: Oh. Let me guess,
my sweet, innocent cousin just
couldn't help but fill you in
on her tragic backstory.
Life with her certifiably
crazy Aunt Jordan.
>> Billy: It's okay.
>> Jack: Hey. Hey. Hey.
>> Ashley: Get off me. Get off.
I was a little bit dizzy,
but now I'm fine.
Can you blame me?
You've been badgering me
for hours with this so-called
intervention of yours. Well,
you got to me. Congratulations.
>> Traci: Why don't you come
and sit down with me?
>> Ashley: Stop hovering.
You're sucking the air
out of the room.
I don't want to sit down.
I want to lie down,
alone, in my room.
Oh, for God's sakes.
What do you think I'm gonna do?
You think I'm gonna
jump out the window and
shimmy down the drain pipe
and make a run for it?
I just want some
peace and quiet.
And for what you've done to me
tonight, I think it's the least
you can give me.
>> Ash: Ashley, please wake up!
You have to wake up
before it's too late.
Come on. Wake up. Wake up.
[ Ash groans ]
Wake up!
[ Ash grunts, groans ]
Oh! Yeah!
Oh! That's a good girl!
That's a good girl!
I knew you could do that.
I knew you had it in you.
Come on.
You know what you got to do.
Please! You know
what you got to do.
Come on, Ashley. Get up.
Wake up! Please! Ashley.
I knew you could do it.
[ Ashley groans ]
Please!
>> Ashley: Oh! Oh!
>> Traci: Ashley. Oh,
my gosh! Ashley.
>> Jack: Ashley, Ashley,
we are here for you.
>> Traci: Speak to us.
Come on. What is it?
>> Jack: All of us are
here for you.
>> Traci: Speak to us. Ashley.
>> Ashley: What's happening?
What's going on?
>> Jack: Ashley...
you are here in our home
with everyone who loves you.
>> Ashley: Why?
>> Traci: Why are you here?
>> Ashley: Why are you all
standing around like something's
wrong with me?
>> Traci: Well, you got
lightheaded, and you were
on your way to your
room to lie down,
and then you fainted.
>> Ashley: No, I mean before
that. I mean, how did I--
how did I get here?
>> Billy: You don't remember?
What-- what do you remember?
>> Ashley: I'm not sure, but I--
I know that-- that we
weren't like this.
>> Diane: We were talking, and
things had gotten intense or--
Are you saying that you
don't remember any of that?
We need to get her
to the hospital.
>> Ashley: I'm not going
anywhere unless you tell me
what's going on.
How long have I been here?
What did I miss?
>> Jack: Okay, we will tell you
everything you want to know
later. Ju-- Right now,
just relax. Take it easy.
>> Ashley: How am I supposed to
take it easy, Jack, when
you're starting to terrify me?
>> Billy: I think Ashley's
right. I think we just
need to give her a little break
so she doesn't get overloaded.
She just had another blackout.
>> Traci: You told them
this happened to me before?
>> Kyle: Yes. I admit it.
After all you found out about
Claire, I wanted to know more.
So when I ran into her
and Victoria at Society,
I decided to get more info.
>> Summer: And?
>> Kyle: I really got
to hand it to her.
Claire laid it all out there.
Everything she did,
everything she went through,
she holds a lot of regret
and shame. But she's doing
everything she can
to make amends.
And be part
of the Newman family.
>> Summer: Wow. Two whole chats
with the girl, and you're
already on her side.
>> Kyle: Her side? For what?
>> Summer: I-- I don't know.
To-- to be Harrison's nanny?
Or to try to convince me to
tolerate her? Which FYI,
if it's option B, you're
gonna have to get in line.
>> Kyle: I'm not on her side.
But it sounds like
someone else is.
>> Summer: Yeah. She has
won over everyone else in
the family, but I am just
the cold-hearted cousin
too skeptical
to welcome her with open arms.
>> Kyle: Okay, everyone in
the family is lobbying
on her behalf, or...
everyone in the world
in general?
>> Summer: You know what I think
is interesting?
>> Kyle: Hmm.
>> Summer: Who gets forgiven.
And for what.
And how long it takes.
I think it says a lot.
I'm actually really bored
of this conversation.
>> Kyle: Hmm.
>> Summer: What should we
talk about now?
>> Kyle: Okay, I'm gonna say
one last thing about Claire,
and then I promise I will stop.
>> Summer: Go ahead.
>> Kyle: When I mentioned
how much Harrison likes her...
>> Summer: Yes?
>> Kyle: ...I wasn't pushing her
to be a nanny candidate.
It was just an observation.
>> Summer: Good. Because we
both know that we
have to agree on
Harrison's nanny. Right?
And it is never going to be her.
All done talking about
Claire now?
>> Kyle: Yes. Yes, we are.
>> Summer: Mm.
>> Kyle: What would you like to
talk about now?
Menswear fashion week?
>> Summer: Well, we could talk
about Jabot's summer palette.
>> Kyle: Hmm.
>> Summer: Or we could talk
about the thing that you don't
want to talk about.
>> Kyle: And what would that be?
>> Summer: Whatever's got you
drinking here alone
at this hour.
>> Kyle: Or we could talk
about the weather.
Did you know,
it's supposed to rain next week?
>> Summer: Mm. April showers
bring May flowers. There,
we did the weather.
What's upsetting you, Kyle?
Is it work? Is it family?
Little bit of both?
>> Traci: Yes, I-- I did
tell the family that you've
been having blackouts, but...
you knew that already.
[ doorbell rings ]
>> Jack: I'll get that.
Thank you for coming, Sharon.
>> Sharon: Oh, no need to
thank me, Jack. Um,
whatever's going on,
I want to help if I can.
>> Jack: I know therapy is not
your focus right now, but
any guidance you could give us,
I'd be very grateful for.
>> Sharon: Of course.
>> Traci: Ashley, I didn't call
the family together
to betray your confidence,
or for all of us to
gang up on you.
I did it because it's what
we always do.
When one of us is struggling,
we all gather together,
and we help them through it.
And honestly,
I thought you were trying to
get me off your back
because you promised
you would get professional help.
>> Ashley: I--
I was planning on it.
I was, I swear to you.
I-- I wasn't avoiding, I--
I don't remember.
Why are you here, Sharon?
What, is it because of me?
Who called her?
>> Jack: I did.
>> Ashley: Why, because you
think I'm crazy?
>> Sharon: I am here as
a friend, Ashley.
Nothing more, I promise.
>> Jack: And what I think,
what we all think,
is that you have been
through so much
these last few months,
it's taken something
out of you, too much.
>> Jack: And our concern only
seems to make things worse.
So I thought maybe
having someone
more experienced,
more objective,
might be just the thing to help
ease your emotional load.
>> Ashley: No, I can't, Jack.
I'm just--
I'm too exhausted,
I have to go lay down.
>> Billy: I think
that's a good idea.
I think Ashley should
go upstairs,
and get a little rest.
>> Ash: I did it!
I beat you at your own game.
And I won!
>> Ms. Abbott: You--
you have no idea
what you've done.
>> Kyle: All right, it's not
a very interesting story,
but you asked for it.
I am alone in a bar at this hour
because I left the office
after a late meeting,
and decided to stop in
for a drink.
>> Summer: You're right.
That is not very
interesting...
or true.
Kyle, I'm your ex-wife.
Twice, actually.
I know that you're not usually
sitting alone brooding at a bar
unless something is really
gnawing at you
or you're avoiding going home.
So, which is it?
[ Kyle sighs ]
>> Kyle: You nailed it,
actually.
It's both.
I feel guilty even thinking
this, let alone saying it.
>> Summer: But?
>> Kyle: But I am having
a hard time working at Jabot...
as a subordinate of my mother.
>> Summer: Oh.
I mean, fair enough.
Well, I get it.
>> Kyle: Clearly you do not.
>> Summer: Yeah, no, not really,
since you were the one
that pushed for this
in the first place.
>> Kyle: I was being noble
and self-sacrificing.
You know, "Go, Mom."
The way this is playing out,
though, she was nowhere
near ready to take on
the position of co-CEO.
And I was not ready
to watch her blow
the opportunity of a lifetime.
>> Summer: Well, you've held
that position in the past.
So if anybody knows
what goes into it, it's you.
And this is your mom
we're talking about.
So I know you were
pulling for her.
But if it's your opinion
that she's in over her head,
I'm sure you're not
alone in that.
Have you talked to Jack?
>> Kyle: He doesn't see it
or doesn't want to.
And it's causing a lot of
tension between Mom and me.
[ Summer sighs ]
>> Summer: After working
with my mom at Marchetti,
I can sympathize, believe me.
>> Kyle: I mean, when I
discreetly try to clean up
after a mistake she's made,
I'm the jerk who's overstepped
or looking for fault
where there is none.
And it's not just that
she's screwed up, it's that...
I'm making her look bad.
And make it clear,
I'm the one keeping an eye out,
saving the day.
Honestly...
she's not wrong.
>> Jack: You know what?
Billy's right, I think
we have stressed you
to the point of exhaustion.
That's on us, and I apologize.
Why don't you go upstairs,
get some rest, and know we all
love you very much.
>> Sharon: Maybe one of you
should go with her.
>> Traci: Um, I will do it.
Come on, Ashley, let's go
upstairs, and get you tucked in.
>> Jack: Here we go.
[ whispering ] Thank you.
Okay, I played along,
because you seem to have
a reason to want Ashley
out of the room.
Why would you not want her
to talk to Sharon?
>> Billy: I just think it's fair
that Sharon...
knows what Ashley's
been going through
before she goes up there
and talks to her.
And I think I may know
what's going on.
[ Ash blows a raspberry ]
>> Ash: Don't be such
a sore loser,
you were making
a big fat mess of everything.
>> Ms. Abbott: I had everything
under control except for one
tiny, little setback.
You should have let me stay
in control so I could finish
this thing.
The most dangerous thing
for Ashley is to be around those
people that are questioning her,
and doubting her.
>> Ash: You are way more
dangerous than they are.
>> Ms. Abbott: They don't know
what's right for her, stupid.
They think they do,
but they're wrong.
I'm the only one that can
protect her,
and make things right again.
>> Traci: Ashley,
look what I found
in your closet, oh, my gosh,
do you remember this?
This is the quilt I made you
for your 21st birthday.
I had no idea
you still had this.
[ laughs ] Here we go.
[ Ashley sniffling ]
I'm so glad that I finally get
to do this for you for a change.
Do you remember all those nights
you used to tuck me in
when we were little girls?
[ chuckles ]
You would sneak into my room
after everybody else was asleep.
[ sighs ]
We would talk until way past our
bedtimes about all the dreams
we hoped to have that night.
For me, it was always the family
I wanted to have when I grew up,
you know, and raising ponies.
[ laughs ]
And for you,
you always wanted to grow up
to be a professional
go-go dancer
and a marine biologist.
Do you remember, Ashley?
[ Ashley sobbing ]
>> Ashley: I'm so scared.
Traci...
I need help.
>> Traci: I'm here, honey,
it's-- I'm here, aww.
>> Summer: Kyle, you've worked
so hard to accept your mom
back into your life,
and you've finally
accomplished that.
You're trying to show her up now
after being so supportive--
>> Kyle: I hate feeling
all this resentment.
I mean, she's my mother.
I love her, but every time I try
to move on, let it go,
it just seems to get worse.
>> Summer: Can I be honest?
I kind of had
a feeling something like this
would happen,
the moment that I heard
that Jack promoted her.
>> Kyle: How the hell did you
know that?
>> Summer: Because I know you.
And I'm sure you did have
the best of intentions
when you pushed for your mom
to take the position
that should have been yours.
And who knows, maybe you
wouldn't be feeling so much
resentment if she were
nailing the job, but...
she's not.
And how could she?
Let's face it, she didn't
exactly get it based off
of her resume.
>> Kyle: Well, she has
some qualifications.
The biggest one being
my dad likes working with her.
[ laughs ]
Depending on her,
he doesn't have to share power.
She's happy being second
position as long as
I'm a distant third.
>> Summer: Great, so this is
working out for Jack now,
but can't last forever.
Not that Jack would ever
admit that.
>> Kyle: Yeah,
that'll never happen.
So I'm stuck.
Back off and let her screw up,
which will hurt the company,
and it'll drive me nuts,
or do I try to clean up after
her in some more low-key way?
I-- I don't know what to do.
>> Summer: Okay, those are not
real options.
The only choice you have...
walk away before you reach
a breaking point,
or you stand up.
You prove to everyone
what they already know.
That it's you, not Diane,
who deserves to be Jack's
co-CEO at Jabot.
>> Ms. Abbott: You stupid
little bitch.
You've destroyed all
of my hard work.
Thanks to you waking Ashley up,
her family thinks the only way
to protect her
is to send her to Fairview.
And what do you think
happens to us, powerless?
And all of our efforts to save
her from Tucker are gone.
You think it was tough
being chained to a cot?
You just wait.
You just wait until
you find yourself all alone,
in a corner,
wrapped up tight
in a straightjacket.
You ruined everything!
>> Jack: It was
a fraught situation
that none of us intended.
>> Billy: Ashley was angry.
She was combative.
>> Diane: She claimed that
we refused to listen to her.
>> Billy: And that the whole
evening was a betrayal.
>> Jack: She accused Billy
and me of holding her hostage
when we didn't allow her
to leave.
>> Sharon: And then she had
no memory of it?
>> Jack: No, no, didn't even
remember how she got here
or why we were gathered
in the first place.
>> Billy: Hey, how is she?
>> Traci: Poor thing,
she's so drained
emotionally and physically.
She went to sleep
pretty quickly.
>> Jack: Well, good for her.
I'm sure it helped that you were
there with her, thank you.
>> Traci: Thank you, I hope so.
So they're getting you
all caught up?
>> Sharon: Yes, I'm sure there's
a lot more to the story,
but I get the gist of it.
Yes, I'm really sorry for what
Ashley and all of you
are going through.
I know how terrifying
it must be.
Um, you said before that
she thought you were trying
to lock her up, so she's refused
to speak with a professional?
>> Traci: Well, tonight I think
that would be true, but before,
when Ashley was more herself,
she wanted to get help.
These-- these blackouts
are terrifying her.
>> Sharon: She's
having blackouts?
>> Jack: Uh, we were
about to get to that.
>> Traci: Yes, they are
frightening her, of course.
Uh, but she was out all night,
and couldn't recall a thing.
She promised me that she was
going to go see a specialist.
>> Sharon: But then she didn't
follow through.
>> Traci: She doesn't even
remember now why she didn't.
It's as if we're dealing
with two Ashleys.
>> Billy: Or maybe it's
more than that.
>> Kyle: It's a bold move.
Are you telling me
to turn on my mother?
>> Summer: I also said
you could just walk away.
>> Kyle: Uh-huh.
>> Summer: Believe it or not,
my opinion of Diane has softened
since she first got to town.
I mean, will I ever
completely trust her?
We both know the answer to that.
>> Kyle: Yes, yes, we do.
>> Summer: Whatever, go ahead,
and say it, I'm the skeptical
one that doesn't trust easily,
whether we're talking
about ex-mothers-in-law
or crazy cousins.
>> Kyle: Oh, I was not going to
say that at all.
>> Summer: Yes, I did think
from the jump
that Diane should not have
taken this job.
What she should have done
is turned down Jack's offer,
and insisted that he gave
the position back to you.
I mean, to take a job that she's
not even remotely qualified for,
and to take it from her son,
no less?
It-- it was self-serving
and arrogant.
And Kyle, it was doomed
to fail from the start.
Whether Jack knows it or not,
I know it, and so do you.
With as much as Jabot means
to all of the Abbotts,
can you really afford
to have Diane in this position
of power without the ability
to handle it?
>> Kyle: You're right.
You're right, this is never
going to work.
If I don't do something,
I will suffer.
The company will suffer,
and so will the family.
There's no way around it.
I either walk away,
or take what should have been
mine in the first place.
>> Jack: Wait,
that's what you think?
That Ashley splintered?
That we're dealing with
dual personalities?
>> Billy: I'm definitely not
gonna diagnose Ashley, okay?
I'm not going to do that, but...
I think it's pretty clear
that we all witnessed two very
different personas here
tonight, right?
I mean, even the threat
to go after Tucker.
Ashley apparently referred
to herself in third person.
I had a very odd run-in with her
at Society where I walked away
from that, thinking that
I just had a conversation
with a teenager, okay?
And I didn't want to make
a big deal out of it,
because I didn't want to project
my own experience onto her.
>> Traci: Your own experience?
[ Billy sighs ]
>> Jack: Might as well go ahead,
and tell her.
>> Billy: Okay, um,
a few years ago, I went through
a pretty dark period.
And I was-- I was blacking out.
And I would lose
whole chunks of time.
And I was out and about,
you know, while these blackouts
would occur, and-- and I was not
doing good things.
>> Traci: When was this, Billy?
>> Billy: It was years ago,
but it was after Delia's
death, and...
the truth is, I thought I had
dealt with everything.
But I-- I hadn't,
and I was hallucinating,
seeing Delia's ghost.
>> Traci: Oh, Billy.
>> Billy: I was getting
into bar fights.
There was one--
one particular time
that I woke up in
the Chancellor mansion
with no idea how I got there,
what I was doing there.
There was another...
really bad night
that I'm not gonna get into.
But I was still blaming Adam
for Delia's death,
and I wanted nothing more
than to hurt him,
to, uh, get my revenge.
>> Sharon: Billy, if you need
to take a moment...
>> Billy: It's okay, it's just--
Look, I got some
very serious therapy.
And-- and they treated me
for Dissociative
Identity Disorder.
And I'm lucky,
because I got help.
And I honestly don't know what
would've happened if I didn't,
I know one thing for sure,
Victoria would've banned me
from seeing the kids,
there's no doubt about that.
And she would've been
right to do it.
>> Jack: But you did the work.
You found your way
to the other side of it,
and I will forever be
proud of you for it.
>> Billy: Look, Ashley's
stronger than I am, okay?
And we all love her so much,
and we're all here for her,
so I know,
I'm telling you right now,
she's gonna be okay.
>> Jack: So what do you think,
Sharon, you think there's
a chance this is even
a possibility?
>> Sharon: Billy is
absolutely right.
There are similarities.
But none of us can
diagnose Ashley, including me.
Um, it could be DID.
But there are
other possibilities.
And this is far too serious
for guesswork,
I am going to make some calls
first thing in the morning,
and get you a list of referrals.
Ashley needs to see
a professional right away,
obviously.
>> Jack: Thank you, Sharon.
We are so grateful, listen,
the Ashley we saw tonight
is going to fight us
every step of the way.
How would you suggest
we get over those hurdles?
>> Traci: No, I don't
think so, Jack, I promise you,
that Ashley I took upstairs,
and tucked into bed,
she will go along with this,
100%.
She wants help, she's ready.
Our sister is in there.
I just know it.
I tried to reach in,
and find her, but I couldn't.
It-- it's like she's lost.
And I have never seen her
so fragile or-- or so terrified.
We've got to help her
before it's too late.
