>> Jack: Hi, Nick.
Morning.
>> Nick: Hey, Jack.
Morning.
>> Jack: Any news
on your mother?
She shared with me that she had
decided to go to rehab.
Very brave decision on her
part, but I wondered how she's
settling in.
>>
>>Nick: Yeah, Dad dropped
her off, uh...
Said she was gonna get
organized and then head off to
her first meeting.
Said she seemed a little
nervous, but determined.
>> Jack: If anyone can do it,
Nikki can.
I really believe that.
>> Nick: Last night, Dad
told me what happened.
How you got Mom to, uh,
finally seek the help she needs.
>> Jack: I take it he didn't
spare any of the details.
>> Nick: Said you drank
with her.
Then hit up your old dealer
and had him drop you off
some pills.
>> Jack: I did.
>> Nick: He said Mom told him
that it was just to shake some
sense into her.
Is that true?
It was just about saving my mom
and not about you falling off
the wagon?
>> Jack: Nikki had given up.
She had no fight left in her.
I could not get through to her.
At that moment, I would've
done anything.
>> Nick: Dad said the paramedics
were there.
You had passed out.
>> Jack: Yeah, that part's
a little hazy.
>> Nick: So, it's true.
You took the pills and
sabotaged your own sobriety.
>> Jack: It was a necessity.
Hey, I saw a friend in danger.
I went out on a limb.
Maybe too far out, but
at least it succeeded.
>> Nick: You know it was crazy,
right?
It's a crazy thing to do, Jack.
I can't even wrap my head
around a gesture like that.
>> Jack: I take it you
disapprove.
>> Nick: It's not my place
to judge you.
I mean, my mom is finally in
rehab and you seem to have made
it out the other side.
You okay?
>> Jack: Yeah.
Oh-- oh, yes.
I'm okay.
This is a one-time thing.
I'm not going back down that
rabbit hole.
>> Nick: Famous last words.
>> Jack: Crazy as I know this
may sound, it was a
tactical move to achieve
a crucial outcome.
>> Nick: Then, I'll take you
at your word.
>> Jack: You can.
>> Nick: All right.
I'm relieved to see you're okay
and that...
I'm very grateful my mom's in
rehab, so thank you for what
you did for her and my family.
>> Jack: Well, that's very kind
of you.
I imagine your father doesn't
share your gratitude.
>> Nick: No, he does not.
>> Jack: Well, I wish Victor
would understand why I did
what I did, and I am concerned
that any progress Victor
and I may have made
was destroyed by that decision.
He probably hates me more now
than he ever did.
>> Claire: Victor, I didn't know
you were coming by.
>> Victor: Well, I just came
to see how you were doing.
>> Cole: Hey, Victor.
Did you come down
to check on our girl?
>> Victor: Cole, my goodness.
How nice to see you.
>> Cole: You too, Victor.
>> Victor: Yeah.
>> Cole: So I'm just, uh,
spending some quality time
with my daughter.
>> Victor: Well, yeah.
How are you doing?
>> Claire: Feel pretty good.
>> Victor: Well, now,
considering the ordeal your aunt
has put you through,
how do you really feel?
♪♪
>> Sally: So, tell me about your
video call with Connor.
How'd it go?
>> Adam: It was tough at first.
You know, I was a lot.
I was talking a lot.
I was saying
all the wrong things.
I was, um, kind of desperate.
>> Sally: How desperate?
>> Adam: I checked myself.
It's a steep learning curve,
figuring out how to deal with
the, uh, OCD.
What to say, what not to say.
But he does seem to be
adjusting to the
residential treatment.
>> Sally: You can tell?
>> Adam: Yeah, he seems more
comfortable, more confident.
He's setting his boundaries
with us.
Trying to do the work.
My kid, telling his parents
what he needs.
>> Sally: Well, he's finally
letting you in, not keeping
it all to himself.
He's learning to look out
for himself.
That's amazing.
>> Adam: Well, he politely
schooled Chelsea and me on words
like disassociation
and reassurance.
>> Sally: Well, you guys will
have to play catch up,
now that he knows more than you.
>> Adam: I just wish it was
about video games or
soccer moves.
But I guess I'll take it.
I can see in his eyes how badly
he wants to get better.
And I wanna hold onto hope.
>> Sally: You should.
Let him see that.
>> Adam: I'm not sure
what else to do.
You know, I feel like
an observer in all of this.
You know, letting an outsider
look after my kid.
>> Sally: But you feel like
Connor feels empowered.
Like he has a say
in all this.
>> Adam: Well, he feels like
they get him.
He's not alone.
>> Sally: That's positive.
You know, you're--
you're feeling
your way through this.
And so's Connor.
>> Adam: Yeah.
I guess.
>> Sally: Why do you say it
like that?
>> Adam: Just, I feel like
my son is moving on without me.
He's leaving me behind.
>> Billy: What you looking at?
>> Chelsea: Did I tell you I get
these daily emails from Connor's
team now?
Just little glimpses
into his day.
You know, signs that he's
eating and coping,
staying active.
>> Billy: That's good, right?
It's nice to know he's doing
regular kid things.
>> Chelsea: Yeah-- yeah, I'm--
I'm grateful.
I live for these.
I check my inbox first thing in
the morning and then I proceed
to check it all day long.
>> Billy: Of course, you do.
You miss your son.
>> Chelsea: I just wanna
hold him.
Make sure he's okay.
>> Ashley: I'm sorry I had to
push our meeting back.
I hope I haven't kept you
waiting long.
>> Alan: No, not at all.
I don't mind waiting,
especially for such a charming
dining companion.
>> Ashley: Have you ordered yet?
>> Alan: Uh, not yet, no.
>> Ashley: Oh, good.
This won't be but a minute. Hi.
>> Alan: All right.
I'm still, uh, surprised to hear
you, uh, call it a meeting
after last night.
I thought this would be less
business, more pleasure.
>> Ashley: Yeah, there'll be
none of that, Alan.
I'm done playing games.
>> Chelsea: I am so spent,
Billy.
I'm so anxious.
I can barely breathe.
Constantly second guessing
myself that I'm-- I'm gonna do
something that's gonna set
Connor back emotionally
or myself.
>> Billy: Chels, you're doing
the best you can.
>> Chelsea: Yeah, oh, and then
also I have this ex
that I have to rein in.
So, I'm constantly worried
Adam's gonna lose it in
front of Connor or his doctors.
I mean, that is a full-time job
in and of itself.
>> Billy: Okay, well, Adam's
an adult.
You can't control him.
He needs to do that.
So, do your best to free
yourself of that burden.
>> Chelsea: I'm trying.
It's not easy.
>> Billy: No.
But you're both going
through this.
And you're doing everything you
can to take care of yourself.
He has to do the same.
At least for Connor's sake.
>> Adam: I hate saying it.
I-- I-- I hate thinking it.
>> Sally: You're afraid to lose
your son.
That's a normal reaction to
something so huge.
>> Adam: But it's just--
it's so selfish.
You know, it's not about me.
It's about getting Connor well
and making him better.
>> Sally: But at the same time,
you're overwhelmed
and you're scared.
It's okay to admit that.
>> Adam: I just spend so much
time blaming myself for what
he's going through and thinking
it's gotta be my fault somehow
when my focus should be on him.
>> Sally: What if you let
yourself off the hook
for a minute?
>> Adam: I'm not sure
that I know how to do that.
I can't find my footing.
>> Sally: Well, that is
what I'm here for.
To be your anchor.
>> Adam: I've dumped enough
on you already.
And at the same time,
I don't know what I would do
without you.
>> Sally: Well, you can
tell me anything.
Things you can't say
to anyone else.
Just don't hide from me
or push me away.
This is my job in Connor's
recovery, to be there for you
so you can be there
for your son.
>> Alan: You seem, uh...
you know, less comfortable
with me than before.
Did I do something wrong?
>> Ashley: Oh, of course not.
It's all my fault.
I overstepped and, uh,
I apologize.
>> Alan: Well, no need.
>> Ashley: Oh, please.
I was flirtatious.
I'm assuming it's because of
all the champagne we drank.
And, uh, I was inappropriate.
And, I'm so sorry if I made
you feel uncomfortable.
>> Alan: Not at all.
In fact, I enjoyed our time
together last night.
Look, I-- I just wanna...
I am content just being here
with you in your hometown.
That's all.
And, um, I'm hoping you might
indulge me, since I've heard so
much about the place.
And maybe you'll show me some
of the sights here in--
in Genoa City.
>> Ashley: We're friends, right?
We can be honest
with each other.
>> Alan: Of course.
>> Ashley: Okay,
let's not pretend.
I mean, you're not here so much
as a friend of mine.
You're here as a psychologist
because Traci asked you to come
visit, correct?
>> Alan: Ashley--
>> Ashley: So don't
patronize me.
I made light of it last night,
but I don't like it.
And I want it to stop.
>> Victor: Claire, I came by to
let you know that whatever you
need, my family will help you.
>> Claire: I appreciate it.
And you're right.
It hasn't been easy.
>> Cole: Well, honey, you don't
have to do this now.
>> Claire: It's okay.
Last night, I had a nightmare
that I was
still in the storage locker.
It was so dark and so cold.
I had no idea how much time
passed when I was in there.
I was so scared that I'd never
see you or Mom again.
Now that I have my family for
real, it's...
The idea of losing that...
>> Cole: We were never going to
stop trying to find you
and bring you back home to us.
And I'm just so sorry that my
aunt was able to get to you and
able to hurt you like
she did again.
I failed to keep you safe.
>> Claire: Dad, no.
You didn't fail anything.
Jordan is a monster.
Was.
Jordan was a monster.
But I don't wanna waste any
more time thinking about her.
And she doesn't get to keep
ruining my life.
>> Victor: Damn right
she doesn't.
>> Claire: I might not be able
to handle the heavy bag
like you, but I can hold my own.
So you can believe me
when I tell you I'll be okay.
>> Cole: Of course you will.
>> Victor: We'll see to it.
>> Claire: I just wish they'd
hurry up and find her body.
Has there been any news?
>> Victor: Well, you know,
the current of that river
is very strong.
And by now, I imagine that
she's in the middle of
Lake Michigan.
You know?
She'll never come back again,
I promise you.
If I were you,
I would not worry about her
one more minute.
>> Jordan: Victor!
Victor,
Victor, where'd you go?
Do you have cameras in here?
I bet you've got
cameras down here.
And a listening device.
Am I your favorite new reality
television show?
So, come on, Victor!
I'm gonna disappoint you
because I am not gonna drink
myself to death.
No, no, no, no.
You know, I am much stronger
than Nikki.
Or any of you.
Why don't you--
Why don't you ask me what
my poison is, huh?
Ask me.
Maybe I'll even tell you.
You want me to drink?
So come, come, join me
at least.
Anybody?
Somebody come have a drink with
me because I am-- I am
not going to die alone here.
>> Nick: For what it's worth,
I told my dad that he should be
thanking you for the incredible
lengths you went to for my mom.
>> Jack: Oh, how did that
go over?
>> Nick: About as well
as you could expect.
He said you two were pretty
wrecked when he found you
together in the suite.
>> Jack: Two addicts,
booze and pills.
It wasn't pretty.
>> Nick: It must've been very
hard to see my mom like that.
And you.
>> Jack: Your mother has worked
very, very hard to shield her
family from the worst of this,
and believe me, this was
the worst of it.
If Victor blames me, it's okay
with me for Nikki's sake.
>> Nick: Yeah, he may come
around once he realizes Mom's
finally getting the help she
needs because of this crazy risk
you took.
>> Jack: Oh, this ceasefire with
Victor has been pleasant for
a while, but it never...
It never seemed to make
much sense.
>> Nick: Yeah, you two are never
gonna be boys, you know?
You're never gonna go and catch
a game together.
>> Jack: And matching
team jackets?
>> Nick: I can't even
imagine that.
Um, I'm betting my dad's anger
slowly goes away as my mom
recovers, you know, and he will
understand that the benefits
far outweigh any residual anger
he may still be feeling.
>> Jack: Yeah, I think you're
underestimating your father's
ability to hold a grudge.
>> Nick: I've seen my father's
grudges up close my whole life.
Look, I hope you know, because
of this, I will always have
your back.
>> Jack: Well, thank you.
I can handle whatever
comes my way.
I have dealt with Victor's
wrath before.
>> Nick: I know you will
risk it again
to help my mom.
>> Victor: So, Cole, you've been
spending a lot of time
at the ranch lately.
Are you moving in or what?
>> Cole: No.
Uh, I just want Claire to know
that her entire family has her
back and that she can count
on me.
>> Victor: Claire, would you
mind if I spoke with your father
privately for a moment?
>> Claire: Not at all.
I actually have plans to be
meeting Mom.
>> Cole: Hm.
>> Claire: Timing's perfect.
>> Cole: Ah.
Nice to see you, honey.
>> Claire: Yeah.
Thank you both for everything.
>> Cole: Thank you.
>> Cole: All right, Victor.
Should I steel myself
for a warning of some kind?
>> Victoria: How's your
relationship with Victoria?
Has something changed?
>> Alan: Ashley, I am not trying
to deceive you.
I'm-- I'm just here because
I wanna see you.
>> Ashley: And because Traci
was worried about me.
I thought it was a good idea.
I did, in the beginning.
I admit that.
>> Alan: Well, look, clearly
your siblings care about you
very much.
But as I understood it, you
wanted help and you were open
to receiving it from me.
And this isn't the first time
we've done this on
a nonprofessional basis.
>> Ashley: Yes, I'm aware
of that.
You helped me before when I was
in Paris and I thought you
might be able to help me again.
>> Alan: But then it was
friendly, nonconfrontational.
That does not seem to be
the case now.
>> Ashley: Well, I was open
to speaking with you,
and I have done so.
But now it feels forced
and contrived.
And frankly,
I feel uncomfortable.
I feel like my siblings have
influenced your perspective
of me.
>> Alan: And why would they
do that?
>> Ashley: Gee, I don't know.
Maybe because they think
I'm unhinged.
It's so insulting.
Like I'm a problem
they need to fix.
>> Alan: Traci and Jack said
that you were afraid of what
was happening to you.
Is that not true?
Is that wrong?
>> Ashley: No, there's been
some issues.
I can handle it.
On my own terms.
>> Alan: Okay.
What are the terms?
What can I do?
>> Ashley: Nothing.
I'm fine.
>> Alan: Ashley, as you say,
we're friends, and friends
should be honest
with each other, right?
>> Ashley: Uh-huh.
>> Alan: Well, since we're being
straightforward and no longer
hiding behind flirtation,
I feel like I should be honest
with you.
Ashley, I'm not sure at all
that you're fine.
>> Adam: I'm so happy
that you're here.
And that you put up with me.
I just-- I hate that we lost
time because I can be an idiot.
>> Sally: Well, I could argue
with you about that last point.
>> Adam: Except, it is true.
>> Sally: What I think is we had
to be apart to know that
we wanna be together.
We learned.
We grew.
Yeah, there was a lot of grief
and anger.
But we came out the other side,
and we are a much stronger
team now.
>> Adam: We are a team,
aren't we?
>> Sally: We are.
And I know you're gonna get
through this with Connor.
>> Adam: Yeah, I just have to go
against my instinct and try to
not lose my mind in
a knee-jerk reaction.
>> Sally: Yeah. Mm-hmm.
Yeah, that would definitely be
a good first step.
>> Adam: Mm-hmm.
I can't just talk the talk,
I gotta follow through.
Especially if Chelsea and I
go see Connor.
>> Sally: I didn't even know
that was on the table.
That's wonderful.
>> Adam: Yeah, the doctors think
that he might be ready for
a weekend visit.
And I am all for it.
But I-- I think Chelsea
might be scared.
>> Sally: To see Connor?
>> Adam: I don't know.
I'm not really sure
where her mind's at.
You know, I've been very, um, up
front about all of my feelings,
so she may feel like she had to
compensate by stuffing down all
of hers.
>> Sally: Or maybe she's just
processing it differently
than you are.
>> Adam: Yeah, but if she's
hiding her feelings again,
last time she did that,
it almost cost her her life.
So, what if she slides again,
you know?
>> Sally: Hey.
Will you promise me something?
Have more faith in Chelsea
and in yourself.
You are both way stronger
than you think.
>> Chelsea: Adam is
a great father.
He can and will
figure this out.
He has to.
>> Billy: Well, props to you
for being open to that.
>> Chelsea: Hm.
Do I really have a choice?
>> Billy: You are the strongest
person I know.
I'm just here to remind you
of that.
>> Chelsea: You're so good
to me.
Always boosting me up.
When does it get to be
too much?
>> Billy: What do you mean?
>> Chelsea: Well, I mean,
how many times in our
relationship have you
supported me?
Have you encouraged me?
And just like it's not my job
to keep Adam on track, I don't
want you to feel like it's
your job to do the same for me.
>> Billy: Oh, no, no, no, no.
No, those are two very, very
different things.
I love you, okay?
I wanna be here to listen
to you, to support you.
I want you to know
that I love you.
There's no place I'd rather be
than beside you, right here.
Whatever you need.
>> Victoria: Jack.
>> Jack: Hey.
>> Victoria: Hi.
>> Jack: How are you?
>> Victoria: Okay?
>> Jack: Um...
>> Victoria: What you did
for my mom.
>> Nick: Yeah, we were just
talking about that
and Dad's reaction.
>> Victoria: You took such
a risk.
I mean, your own sobriety.
>> Jack: Your mother chose
to get the help she needs.
That's the end of the story.
>> Victoria: Thank you
for being there for her.
>> Claire: Mom, hi.
>> Victoria: Hi, sweetheart, hi.
>> Nick: Welcome home.
>> Claire: Thank you.
>> Jack: So, it's great to see
you safe and sound.
>> Claire: And so is Harrison.
Very, very grateful for that.
>> Jack: Yeah, Kyle said
you stopped by to see him.
That was very thoughtful
of you.
>> Claire: Well, he's my buddy.
We bonded over good luck charms.
I just hope we can get back to
those good memories.
>> Jack: Yeah, Harrison is
very fond of you.
>> Claire: Well, it's an honor.
>> Kyle: Well, Kyle and Summer
have struggled for a while now
to find a new nanny
now that Linda left town.
I wish they could find someone
who connects with the boy
the way you do.
>> Victoria: Oh, I didn't know
that Kyle and Summer were
looking for childcare.
Hey, maybe you could throw
your hat in the ring.
>> Ashley: Such a shame.
I mean, obviously, Traci
and Jack have gotten to you and,
uh, have made you see things
that aren't there.
>> Alan: Ashley, your demeanor
has changed drastically
from just yesterday.
>> Ashley: Well, that was
last night.
Now, it's the light of day.
>> Alan: But-- but even today,
I mean...
There-- there's something
unfamiliar about you.
I've known you for years
through all your ups and downs,
but you've always been
yourself.
>> Ashley: And I'm not
myself now?
Is that what all your years
of training is telling you?
>> Adam: Last night, you
couldn't remember how we met.
>> Ashley: Alan, we had a lot
of champagne, correct?
Come on.
>> Alan: Okay.
But, you know, you were being
playful, interested in my
professional take on
your demeanor.
It was like a game to you.
And today, look, you're
completely different.
Cool, deflective, even
indignant that I'm here at all,
as if you are threatened
or something.
>> Ashley: Look, I admit it.
I was teasing you a bit.
But I really don't want you to
feel insulted just because
I don't feel like playing today.
>> Alan: All right, well,
where does that leave us
if you're no longer interested
in my professional take
on your demeanor?
>> Ashley: I'm not.
>> Alan: And
you regret the flirtation?
>> Ashley: I do.
>> Alan: And do you think
there's any reason for me
to stay in town?
>> Ashley: I don't.
>> Ashley: I'm really not trying
to chase you away.
>> Alan: Well, it certainly
feels that way.
>> Ashley: You're right.
But can you blame me?
I mean, look at you, you're
just always studying me.
And if that's going to
continue, then I think
you should go to Vienna
and attend your conference.
>> Alan: Ashley, I--
I just feel like we got
our wires crossed here somehow.
>> Ashley: I don't think so.
It was great catching up
with you, Alan.
Safe travels.
[ Alan sighs ]
>> Claire: You want me to be
Harrison's nanny?
>> Victoria: I don't know,
it's just an idea.
I mean, you did say that you
might like to work with kids,
that it might be
a vocation for you.
>> Claire: Well...
Yeah, after I spent time with
the kids in the hospital.
>> Victoria: But you're so good
with them.
And Harrison likes you so much.
And you've probably bonded,
you know, after everything that
you've been through together.
Maybe you can talk to him.
Maybe he would feel comfortable
talking with you about it.
>> Claire: Honestly, I can't
think of a better job than
taking care of that munchkin.
>> Victoria: I think
it's wonderful.
>> Claire: But I doubt Summer
would be on board.
>> Victoria: Claire does have
a point.
I've noticed that Summer has, uh
an attitude towards her cousin.
Has she said anything to you
about that?
>> Nick: I think Summer's having
a hard time adjusting to having
a new addition to the family.
And I think Harrison's
kidnapping makes it a little
bit more complicated.
>> Victoria: Well, Claire
had nothing to do with that.
Summer should see that by now.
>> Jack: Well, I'm not promising
anything, but if you like, I
would speak to Kyle and Summer.
>> Claire: That would be
amazing.
>> Jack: Okay, well, I'll catch
all of you a bit later.
Um, please give Nikki my best.
>> Victoria: Oh, we will.
>> Nick: We will.
>> Jack: Take care.
>> Nick: Bye.
>> Victoria: Good for you
going for the job.
I think it'll be good for you
and for Harrison.
>> Claire: Time to look
to the future.
>> Cole: Victoria and I have
gotten closer.
We've reconnected.
>> Victor: Hm.
>> Cole: Now, is that a sound
of disapproval?
Because I know at one time that
you were against the idea.
>> Victor: Yes, I was.
>> Cole: And now?
>> Victor: Well, Cole, you seem
to be very protective of both
Victoria and Claire,
and I like that.
>> Cole: Claire's my only child.
She's a chance at joy
that I never saw coming.
And Victoria...
I love them both very much.
>> Victor: I'm very glad
to hear that, Cole.
>> Cole: And I'm willing
to stick around as long
as they're happy.
>> Victor: Nice to know.
>> Cole: But, Victor, there is
something that I hope you can
be honest with me about.
It's regarding my aunt's death.
Her fall into that river.
Is there something that
we don't know?
[ Jordan sighs ]
>> Jordan: This bastard thinks
he can--
Thinks he can beat me?
Beat me?
I'll show him.
Whoa.
Ow. Ow. What? What?
What's going--
Oh. Oh.
Stop biting.
Stop-- stop it, stop it.
Oh, oh.
Oh. Oh.
Victor!
Victor, stop it!
No spiders.
No spiders, please.
No spiders...
Oh.
Okay.
[ Jordan exhales ]
>> Jordan: Just one swig.
That's all.
Just one swig.
Oh.
>> Chelsea: Okay.
Well, since you are so sweet
and supportive and perfect...
>> Billy: I'm gonna need you
to put that in writing.
>> Chelsea: Um, there is
a little more advice I need,
if you can swing it.
>> Billy: Okay.
Hit me.
>> Chelsea: The doctors
at Conner's program, they--
they say that he might be ready
for a visit.
>> Billy: That's great.
That's good, right?
>> Chelsea: Yeah,
so I'm considering going
to the East Coast this weekend.
>> Billy: Only considering?
Why is that?
>> Chelsea: What if he's
not ready?
And what if I go and he
doesn't want to see me? Or...
Or I go, and he does see me,
and it undoes all the progress
he's making.
>> Billy: Hm. Yeah, I--
The doctors are saying it's
a good time to come.
I think I would trust them.
You know?
Maybe you're overthinking
it a little bit.
>> Chelsea: I am, right?
Yeah. Yeah.
I just don't wanna underthink
it and then screw
everything up.
>> Billy: Yeah.
But you want to see your son,
and they're saying it's a good
time to come, so...
>> Chelsea: Right.
I just have to make the best
choice with the knowledge
I have.
>> Billy: Yeah.
And look, Conner feels like
he's ready. Doctor's saying
it's a good time.
Let's take yes as an answer.
Okay? And if anything goes
wrong, then the doctors are
there to support both of you.
>> Chelsea: Okay.
I like that.
Conner seems stronger and I--
I think he's prepared for this.
>> Billy: Maybe this is part
of the healing process
for all three of you.
>> Chelsea: What would I do
without you?
>> Billy: I don't know.
But the good news is you don't
have to worry about that.
[ door slams ]
>> Jack: For you.
>> Diane: Thank you.
>> Jack: How're you doing?
>> Diane: I'm okay.
I was reading with Harrison
in his room, but he fell asleep
a few minutes ago.
>> Jack: Well, he needs
some rest.
>> Diane: Yeah, yeah.
He's, um, he's been sleeping
a lot lately, but I guess that's
normal for someone who's been
through what he's been through.
>> Jack: All we can do is
reassure him that he's safe now.
>> Diane: Yeah.
So, how are you feeling?
>> Jack: I think it was good
that I got out.
Some fresh air.
Fresh perspective.
Look, I know you were upset
by my actions.
>> Diane: Upset?
You spent all night
in a hotel suite
with Nikki Newman,
and you took pills, Jack,
as a recovering addict.
>> Jack: I told you,
that was strategic.
>> Diane: Oh, my God, it doesn't
make it any less dangerous.
And your refusal to admit that
is alarming.
>> Jack: Okay, I-- I really just
wanted to say I'm sorry.
>> Diane: Are you sorry for what
you did, or are you sorry
that I'm mad?
>> Jack: What would it take
to lessen this anger?
[ door opens, closes ]
[ Diane sighs ]
>> Diane: Hi, Ashley.
>> Ashley: Oh, tippy-toe,
tippy-toe. Please stop.
It's so annoying the way you
tiptoe around me.
>> Jack: Have you seen your
friend from Paris this morning?
>> Ashley: Well, yes, Jack,
I did.
We had breakfast together.
>> Diane: Oh, how was that?
>> Ashley: Fine.
I told him to go ahead
and go to Vienna,
attend his conference.
>> Jack: Why would he cut it
short now?
>> Ashley: Because he sees me
as a patient and not a friend.
And I know that you and Traci
were hoping that he would
covertly psychoanalyze me,
right? That failed.
>> Adam: Hey.
Uh, what's going on?
>> Chelsea: Is this a bad time?
>> Adam: Um,
no, no, it's all right.
Um, come in.
>> Chelsea: Hi, Sally.
>> Sally: Hey.
>> Billy: Hi.
>> Adam: Did, uh,
did something happen?
Is everything okay with Connor?
>> Chelsea: Connor's okay.
Um, I've made a decision and
I want to talk to you about it.
>> Sally: I will leave you guys.
>> Adam: No, no, no,
I-- I want you to stay.
Please stay with me.
>> Adam: Um, what is it?
>> Chelsea: I wanna
go visit Connor.
I think we should go together,
if it works for you.
>> Adam: I mean, are you sure?
>> Chelsea: I miss him so much,
Adam.
And if the doctors are saying
it's okay--
>> Adam: I agree, I think that
we can-- we can do this.
I know we can do this.
>> Chelsea: Yeah, but, you know,
we have to be able
to hold it together.
>> Adam: Of course.
Because that's what Connor
needs and that's what
he deserves.
>> Victor: You gotta trust me
when I tell you that everyone
knows all there is to know.
>> Cole: Wait, wait.
That sounds like a dodge,
like you're trying to protect us
from something.
>> Victor: Cole,
if I thought she were alive,
don't you think I would put
a security detail on every
member of my family?
That woman is gone, she's dead.
All right?
So stop worrying.
[ Jordan panting ]
>> Jordan: Get off me!
Just get off.
Get off.
Ooh.
[ Jordan panting ]
>> Jack: Traci and I did not
conspire against you.
In fact, you were on board with
him coming to visit before
he ever arrived.
>> Ashley: Yeah, well, I had
a change of heart.
>> Diane: Why is that?
>> Ashley: Because I don't need
him here.
>> Jack: I want him to stay
a little longer.
>> Ashley: Well, that's just
tough, Jack.
>> Jack: You don't want me
walking on eggshells.
Fine, I will be direct.
>> Ashley: Go ahead.
>> Jack: You are not well,
Ashley.
This family is going to do all
we can to make sure you get
the help you need,
no matter what it takes.
