>> Ashley: Hey.
>> Traci: Ashley, you're up.
I thought maybe you'd sleep
a little longer.
Ooh, how's your cheek?
>> Ashley: Oh, it's okay,
I mean...
Yeah, I mean, actually, just a
couple of hours of uninterrupted
sleep was magnificent.
I haven't had any peace
for so long, awake or asleep.
>> Traci: And you finally do
have some peace.
So, how about the altars?
>> Ashley: Not a peep, nothing,
not since I started figuring out
what happened.
>> Traci: Wow,
I am so happy for you.
And you finally have some
answers, and you're gonna get
more answers soon.
>> Ashley: Yeah, I know.
>> Traci: I wonder if Alan had
a chance to get some sleep.
Oh my gosh, so much pain there.
Physically and emotionally,
to realize what his brother has
put you through, and find his
brother, and then lose him
again in one night.
>> Ashley: It's very tragic.
All the time he spent trying
to save his brother,
and in the end,
Martin's illness was
just too strong.
>> Traci: I don't know Alan very
well, but I imagine he'll just
shove everything aside,
and focus on what he can do,
which will be making all
the arrangements so that you can
check into the clinic today.
>> Ashley: I don't wanna go.
I know he's right though,
Alan's right.
I have to figure out what
happened to me, and I have to
figure out what caused these
altars to appear
in the first place.
>> Traci: My amazing sister,
I'm so proud of you.
>> Ashley: You still feel that
way after everything I've put
you through.
>> Traci: Come on.
>> Ashley: Oh, my God.
>> Traci: Ashley it was so much
worse for you than for any of
us, and look at you,
taking charge of your recovery.
That's how I know
you're yourself again.
>> Ashley: Couldn't have done it
without you.
Well, it's the truth.
I'm not feeling particularly
courageous though, Traci.
I know I have to do it
for a full recovery.
There is one more thing I have
to take care of though,
before I go.
>> Tucker: Are these all
the messages you have for me?
>> Dawn: Yes, they're all there.
>> Tucker: There's nothing from
Traci or Ashley Abbott?
All right, please check and see
if there's anything else.
>> Dawn: Of course.
There are some more messages
about Audra Charles.
>> Tucker: Oh, excellent.
I can't wait to hear what
she's up to now.
>> Audra: Philippe.
Audra Charles.
What a coincidence running into
you last night.
You know, I'd love to continue
our conversation.
When can we get together again?
There's so much more about
Tucker the world needs to know.
Call me.
♪♪
>> Cole: Hey, Mike.
Thanks for meeting up with me.
>> Michael: No, of course.
Some kind of warped breakfast
club for people on Victor's
bad side.
>> Cole: Yeah, well, it would be
a, uh, club of one if I didn't
drag you into this whole
Victor Jordan mess.
And-- and you end up losing your
job because of this.
>> Michael: Don't bother
worrying about that.
Victor and I have done this
dance before.
We eventually work through
these things.
But you're not on the payroll.
How did Victor vent his wrath
on you?
>> Cole: Well, he wants to keep
me away from Victoria
and Claire.
>> Michael: Well, it's a little
harsh, even for Victor.
And unrealistic.
You just found your daughter.
>> Cole: I did, I did.
And there's no way that he's
gonna keep me away from that.
So he's gonna have to come up
with a better way to punish me.
>> Victor: Well now.
Two traitors with
their heads together.
Why am I not surprised?
>> Victor: So, what are you two
conspiring about now?
>> Cole: No one is conspiring
against you, Victor.
We never have
and we never will.
Besides, part of your family is
also part of mine, too.
>> Michael: I've always
appreciated your ability
to hold a grudge.
It's always been exceptional.
But Cole and I were merely
looking out for you.
We just happen to be two of
your biggest supporters.
>> Cole: And as it turns out,
it's the best thing
for everyone concerned.
>> Michael: Exactly.
Your hands are clean now.
No more wasting time worrying
about some explosive secret.
No keeping up pretense as well,
containing that person, who,
by the way, is now contained
legally without any chance
of escape.
>> Victor: This is not about
the outcome.
It's about the betrayal by two
people who I thought
I could trust!
I will not tolerate it.
>> Cole: Okay, Victor, please,
just wait a minute, all right?
Let's just take a beat.
Maybe we can head on back
to the ranch and talk about
this in private.
>> Michael: That's not too much
to ask.
Calm conversation,
cooler heads.
Give us a chance to make
our case.
>> Cole: And then you can choose
to do whatever you want.
>> Dawn: It appears Ms. Charles
has managed to run into some of
the company's board members.
>> Tucker: Happy little
accidents, I'm sure.
So she found a way to get
to them, huh?
>> Dawn: Her main agenda seems
to be reminding everyone of the
cover-up scandal at McCall.
>> Tucker: Nicely done, Audra.
>> Dawn: It's a smear campaign.
She's claiming you're
emotionally unstable
and incapable of running
the company.
>> Tucker: Emotionally unstable?
Very charming.
Yeah.
I don't quite know yet what her
next move is gonna be,
but don't worry.
I taught her most of,
if not everything she knows.
But not everything I know.
>> Traci: What could be
so important, you have to take
care of it right now.
>> Ashley: I need to go see
Tucker.
>> Traci: Oh, Ashley,
do you think that's a good idea?
I mean, it's conflating
the events with Martin
and Tucker that-- that triggered
the alters in the first place.
Aren't you worried that seeing
him will do more damage
or trigger a relapse?
>> Ashley: I owe him
an explanation.
And frankly, I'm doing it more
for myself than I am for him.
>> Traci: You can't do it,
can you?
>> Ashley: Do what?
>> Traci: You cannot walk away
from that man once and for all.
>> Ashley: This is why
I'm doing it.
I wanna say goodbye.
I wanna get some closure.
>> Traci: Well, you can say that
all you want, but you know
Tucker's not gonna allow it.
He says that he's in Paris on
business, but it didn't stop
him from calling you or turning
up at Alan's house last night.
And even after everything that
happened, he would not leave.
>> Ashley: I can't really be mad
at him though, can I?
For showing up the way he did.
God only knows what Martin
could've done to me
if he hadn't.
>> Traci: Okay, fair point.
His timing was absolutely
perfect and I will be forever
grateful.
But it doesn't mean that you
have to engage with him,
especially now when things are
so fragile.
>> Ashley: Okay, I hear what
you're saying, I do.
But I just-- I need to do this.
I need to set the record
straight.
I need to explain what happened
to him. I have to.
I can't go to that clinic
without saying thank you.
Please don't worry.
[ Traci scoffs ]
>> Traci: Like that's
even possible.
Um, I-- I would worry less if
you would let me go with you.
>> Ashley: I've got this.
>> Traci: Are you sure?
You've-- you've got this?
>> Ashley: Yeah.
Why are you worried that I'm one
of my personalities right now?
>> Traci: Well, I had to ask
because, you know, when we got
here, you asked me to watch you.
You wanted me to look
for anything out of character
or unusual.
>> Ashley: I know.
This isn't one of those
situations, okay?
I'm not gonna try to kill
Tucker or even seduce him.
Besides, if I was one of
my alters, would I commit
to going into a clinic where
the whole purpose is to heal me
so I can purge them all?
>> Traci: Okay.
You-- you have
a very good point.
If you are really planning
to go.
>> Ashley: I'm definitely going.
Absolutely.
>> Traci: Okay.
Please forgive me
for doubting you.
>> Ashley: I think
you're entitled.
Although I do find it
a little disturbing that
somebody so close to me
doesn't know when I'm me.
>> Traci: Okay, so I'm not
supposed to worry that you going
to see Tucker might trigger one
of the alters to show up.
>> Ashley: I love you.
I even love fighting with you
sometimes, but you're not gonna
win this one.
>> Traci: Okay, one more try.
Ashley, you are in a very
vulnerable state and you've
said it yourself.
Tucker can be relentless.
[Ashley laughs ]
>> Ashley: Yeah, but I seriously
doubt he's gonna try to follow
me into a mental health
facility, Traci.
Please, just trust me on this,
okay? Please?
>> Traci: Okay.
Promise me you'll be careful.
>> Ashley: I will be.
You know, I just--
I need to do this.
I need to close this chapter
so I can focus solely
on my recovery.
Okay?
>> Traci: Oh, love you.
>> Ashley: I love you.
I'll see you soon.
>> Traci: Okay.
[ Traci sighs ]
[ door closes ]
>> Victor: So,
tell me what you would've done
had I not caught you with that
excuse for a woman
in the dungeon.
>> Michael: We would've dealt
with her just as we did.
>> Victor: You would've
bungled it.
She would've escaped again.
>> Michael: Given that it didn't
come to that, it's hard to know.
>> Victor: You went behind
my back.
You betrayed me.
>> Cole: Look, Victor,
this is on me.
All right, I take full
responsibility for wanting
to keep what he and I were
planning just between us.
The goal was to keep
your hands clean.
The whole intent was just
to protect you.
>> Victor: Let me remind you,
Cole, I do not need
your protection.
>> Michael: All right,
all right, we stand corrected.
But it's over and done with.
There's nothing we can do
to change what happened.
You've already retaliated
against both of us.
But firing me and driving Cole
away from his family,
it's not really a viable
long-term solution.
>> Victor: The hell it isn't.
>> Michael: Look,
you don't believe that.
Let's just talk about
how to get past this.
You tell us what we need to do
to win your trust back.
>> Tucker: It shouldn't matter
what clever little scheme
Audra's cooked up,
because the CFO's of all
the companies I've acquired,
all the board members
should remain loyal to me.
I think I've made convincing
arguments to all of them.
>> Dawn: How will you proceed?
>> Tucker: I make Audra an offer
she can't refuse.
Get her to back down,
smooth things over.
>> Dawn: But why would you waste
your time on someone who's
fighting you at every turn?
How could you ever trust
someone like that?
>> Tucker: It's just business.
She's doing exactly what
I would do if I were her.
>> Dawn: And you can forgive her
for going after you
the way she has?
>> Tucker: She's trying to hit
me where it hurts because
I hurt her.
Let's see if she'll meet
with me today.
[ knock on door ]
>> Tucker: Hey.
>> Victor: There's not a damn
thing either of you can do to
redeem yourselves at this time.
>> Michael: Victor,
be reasonable.
>> Victor: You have been
my conciliary, my attorney,
my friend.
How many years now?
What you did was a betrayal.
>> Michael: Victor, really.
This whole thing has been
resolved to everyone's
satisfaction.
Just please, just let it go.
>> Victor: I refuse to surround
myself with people
I can't trust.
There are plenty of brilliant
lawyers out there I can put on
the payroll right now.
As far as you're concerned,
Cole, why don't you go back
to Oxford?
Bon voyage.
>> Michael: Look, there was
never any conspiracy
against you.
You were offended because we
stepped in.
And we understand.
Cole and I are prepared to
accept the fact that we could've
handled this differently.
>> Cole: We should've trusted
you enough to tell you
immediately what we thought
needed to be done instead of
going and executing it
on our own.
All right, it's not gonna
happen again.
>> Victor: Damn right it won't.
>> Michael: Victor, we deserve
a second chance and you know it.
Look, all's well that ends well.
May I?
The bottom line is I like
working for you and I do
a better job than any other
attorney out there.
>> Victor: That's what you say.
>> Michael: And Cole shouldn't
have to lose the family that
he's just found because of some
miscalculated attempt to save
you, not to mention how unfair
that would be to Claire
and Victoria.
>> Victor: All right.
You're gonna have to prove
your loyalty to me again.
>> Michael: And how do you
suggest that we do that?
>> Tucker: So you intend to take
over Glissade from me?
>> Audra: That's right.
>> Tucker: Sure, piece of cake.
>> Audra: I'm not saying it's
gonna be easy.
I know you have all your guns
pointed in my direction.
But I'm not gonna be
intimidated and in the end,
I'll win for one simple reason.
>> Tucker: Yeah, what's that?
>> Audra: I want it more
than you.
>> Tucker: I think you've
clearly shown that you don't
know what it is I truly want.
And how hard I'm willing
to fight for it.
>> Audra: Glissade was nothing
more than a rebound play
for you. You struck out
at Chancellor-Winters,
you struck out at Jabot,
so this was supposed to be
your consolation prize.
Oh, and it was all gonna be
for Ashley.
>> Tucker: So, um,
just the other day when, uh,
when Ashley came to me and yet
again tried to convince me that
she and I belong together, and I
turned her down flat without
hesitation.
Because despite all this,
I love you.
Was I lying to myself?
Maybe you're the one engaged
in self-deception.
>> Audra: Am I?
You came up with the idea
to pour new life into Glissade
with Ashley.
Then you try to reboot it,
to try to prove something
to Ashley.
Okay, I don't have any of that
baggage weighing me down.
For me, it's just about
the company.
You know, if you were a decent
ex-partner, you'd just let me
have it.
>> Audra: Tucker, please.
>> Tucker: I'm glad to see you.
Um...
>> Dawn: I'll follow up
on those calls.
>> Tucker: Thank you.
Well, sit down, please.
Can I get you anything?
>> Ashley: No, I'm-- I'm fine,
thank you.
>> Tucker: I don't know
where to start.
>> Ashley: I know, the whole
thing is shocking.
>> Tucker: Yeah.
How are you doing?
>> Ashley: Yeah, wow.
>> Tucker: Yeah?
>> Ashley: But, it's okay.
>> Tucker: You look remarkably
great, all things considered.
>> Ashley: Well, that's why I--
I'm here.
I wanted to thank you so much
for showing up when you did.
I honestly don't know what
Martin could've done if you
weren't there.
>> Tucker: It was nothing really
anyone else would've done
the same.
>> Ashley: I don't agree
with that.
And I really need you to know
that I appreciate it.
>> Tucker: Okay,
well, you're welcome.
Glad I happened to be there.
>> Ashley: And I also want you
to know that, thanks to Alan,
I am checking into
a private clinic.
Later today, he's making
all the arrangements.
>> Tucker: Alan to the rescue
again.
No, but really, I'm-- I'm
pleased that you have so many
people supporting you in this.
>> Ashley: I'm fortunate.
>> Tucker: Listen, um,
I don't know all
the details of what was going on
with you.
But...
>> Ashley: You knew, though,
that something was off.
I mean, you started urging me
to get professional help before
anybody thought it was
a serious problem.
>> Tucker: Yeah, I did know
something was off.
I didn't know what it was.
>> Ashley: You faced off
with my family.
You never backed down until
they took you seriously.
So, um,
maybe you guessed.
It seems that I have
dissociative identity disorder,
multiple personalities.
So, don't blame me
for what they did.
>> Tucker: No, the only thing
I knew is you weren't yourself.
>> Ashley: Yeah, I know.
You didn't even know what I was
going through, but you knew
I wasn't me.
How did you-- how did you know?
How could you tell?
>> Tucker: I just knew.
Yeah, I guess I'll always know
what makes the real you, you.
>> Audra: This is Audra Charles.
Oh, hi, are you calling
to confirm my meeting with
Philippe?
Oh, uh, I'm--
I'm sorry to hear that.
Well, I could be available
later today or perhaps tomorrow
if that fits better
with his schedule.
Of course.
Yeah, I-- I understand.
It was such a pleasure running
into him last night.
I'd love to personally thank
him for-- for his input.
Perhaps I could speak
to him directly.
Oh, I-- I see.
Well, thank you so much.
Maybe I'll try him again some
other time.
Damn it, Tucker.
[ knock on door ]
>> Alan: Hello.
>> Traci: Oh, Alan, you're here,
come in, please.
>> Alan: Thank you, thank you.
>> Traci: Oh, boy,
how is the pain?
>> Alan: Oh, I'm just a little
stiff from the fall, that's all.
>> Traci: Did you get any sleep?
>> Alan: Enough, thank you.
>> Traci: Please sit down.
>> Alan: Ooh, aye.
So how's Ashley,
is she awake yet or...
>> Traci: Oh, yeah, she's awake.
She's actually already gone.
>> Alan: Where did she go?
>> Traci: To see Tucker.
She wanted to say goodbye
and thank him for last night.
And I think there were some
things about the relationship
she wanted to put to rest.
>> Alan: Yeah, well, that's--
that's understandable.
How-- how did she seem?
>> Traci: Well, if you're asking
if any of the alters have come
back, I don't think so.
She was very much herself
when she left.
But it doesn't stop me from
wanting to rush over
to his hotel and make sure
she's all right.
>> Alan: That Tucker has a
substantial ego on him and he's
quite territorial when it comes
to Ashley, isn't he?
>> Traci: So should I go
over there?
>> Alan: No, I don't think so.
He showed genuine concern when
he tracked her down last night.
>> Traci: I'll give him that.
But Tucker can be a handful.
>> Alan: Oh, people are rarely
one thing.
But I understand your concern
and-- and your resentment.
>> Traci: Oh, no,
it's not resentment.
It's just that he has hurt the
people I love too many times.
>> Alan: He did something decent
last night.
>> Traci: He did, but you can't
make me trust him.
>> Alan: I promise you I am not
trying to.
Besides, you seem like the kind
of person who gives people
the benefit of the doubt
when you can.
>> Traci: I-- I try to, but when
someone shows me their true
colors, there's no going back.
I also like to think of myself,
though, as someone who can
recognize in people someone who
is decent and kind and generous.
And I see all of those things
in you and I'm very, very
grateful.
>> Ashley: Well, thank you
for not forgetting the real me.
>> Tucker: Please,
how can I forget you?
I-- I do know the real you
and I'm glad I do.
>> Ashley: Well, it's pretty
amazing you can say that after
what my alters put you through.
>> Tucker: More of you to love?
>> Ashley: Okay, sure.
We did jerk you around, though,
pretty mercilessly.
>> Tucker: Yeah, but I never
thought you were doing any of it
on purpose.
I always had a sense you
weren't quite in control.
That's the past.
It's over now and I just--
I want you to be happy
and healthy again.
>> Ashley: Me too.
So, anyway, um,
what happened was, um,
very scary and very difficult
for me to explain.
>> Tucker: Okay,
would you like to try?
>> Ashley: Okay.
>> Tucker: You don't have to.
>> Ashley: I know, yeah,
I got to, I got to, I got to.
Um, so, that fight we had at
the bistro last year, after that
I went to meet up with Alan.
I didn't know he had
a twin brother.
>> Tucker: Martin.
>> Ashley: Yes, and I did not
know that Martin was
impersonating Alan that night.
>> Tucker: You thought Martin
was Alan.
>> Ashley: Yes, and because I
trusted Alan, I ended up at
Alan's apartment and I told him
everything, Martin, everything
about us, the fight we had,
what was going on
in our marriage.
I mean, I spilled my guts
to him.
>> Tucker: Hmm.
>> Ashley: I'm not quite sure
what happened after that, but
Martin was-- he was aggressive
towards me and he was, you know,
he was full of rage and he was..
I blocked it out and I just
simply don't remember, but what
you need to know is I somehow
conflated the two events,
you in the bistro, Martin in
the apartment, and I snapped
and when I came out of it, I--
I just confused you two
and I was blaming you instead of
Martin for what happened.
>> Tucker: Okay.
Yeah, I was very worried that I
was the one that was putting
you through all that.
>> Ashley: I know,
it wasn't you.
And, uh, whatever happened to me
that caused that psychological
break, that made the, um,
personalities come out.
They were trying to protect me.
>> Tucker: I'm so sorry.
I'm really sorry that you went
through all that, any of it,
and I'm--
last night must've just
been hell for you.
After everything that
that psychopath did to you.
>> Ashley: Listen, what I really
need you to know that it
would've been so much worse
for me if you hadn't shown up
when you did.
>> Tucker: No, no.
>> Ashley: I really mean that.
>> Tucker: No, no.
>> Ashley: Anyway, I have to go
to this clinic.
>> Tucker: Okay.
>> Ashley: I'm okay.
I have to go to this clinic and
I gotta do the work, which I'm
gonna do.
I hear it's a fabulous clinic.
>> Tucker: That's good.
It better be.
You let me know if it isn't.
>> Ashley: Yeah, for sure.
>> Tucker: Um,
well, I just-- I wish you all
the healing and-- and-- and
well-being you deserve.
>> Ashley: Really?
>> Tucker: I wish you nothing
but the best always.
>> Ashley: Really?
Even if, I you know, all that
push-pull and the love-hate and
the yes-no and all that stuff?
>> Tucker: No, no, no, there was
never, no, never any hate.
Not from me anyway.
Good luck.
>> Ashley: Good luck to you.
And I want nothing
but happiness for you.
I mean, I hope you're a huge
success with Glissade
and with Audra and with life.
>> Tucker: Here,
I didn't use this.
>> Ashley: It's okay, I'm okay.
Oh, hey.
>> Audra: Ashley, my goodness.
What a surprise
to find you here.
>> Ashley: Please don't think
the worst.
>> Audra: And what would
the worst be exactly?
>> Tucker: Audra, if you
wouldn't mind just giving us--
>> Ashley: No, no, no, no,
I'm leaving, I'm leaving.
And I was just here to say
goodbye to Tucker and I'm sure
he'll fill you in on the rest,
right?
>> Tucker: Of course.
>> Ashley: What I was telling
him, though, was that I really
only wish the two of you
the best in the future.
I hope you have nothing
but success and happiness
and I'm sure that's a little
difficult to believe after
the way I've acted recently,
but I mean it.
>> Audra: That's not really
an issue anymore.
>> Ashley: But please just know
that from the bottom of my
heart, I really want you to know
that I sincerely just want
the best for both of you, okay?
And, um, I won't be seeing you
for a while.
I'm not gonna be in Genoa City,
so, um, it's gonna be a while.
Anyway, goodbye, I'm leaving.
Bye.
>> Tucker: You still wanna
come in?
>> Audra: Not anymore.
>> Traci: Alan,
I have been really, really
worried about you.
Um, everything you had to go
through yesterday.
Losing your brother,
bearing witness.
>> Alan: You know, Martin,
he always had an unhappy life
and I don't know, I guess I was
grieving him before he even...
I'm a man of science, but I just
hope he's at peace.
You know, I mean, not just gone
from the world, but truly
at peace somewhere, finally.
But then I think to myself, is
that for my benefit or for his?
And I just don't know.
>> Traci: Alan,
it can be for both.
You have been carrying around
so much responsibility
for so many years.
I think it's time to put that
burden down.
>> Alan: Thank you.
>> Traci: It is so much for us
to ask you to deal with
everything you're dealing with
for yourself and to help
my sister.
So if there's anything,
communications, anything that I
can do to help you.
>> Alan: Traci, Ashley is a dear
friend of mine.
I am happy to do whatever I can
to get her the treatment
she needs.
>> Traci: Why did I know that's
what you were gonna say?
But please promise me that
you will take care of your
emotional needs too.
>> Alan: Excuse me, but who's
the therapist here?
>> Traci: Come on, I've heard
that doctors are the very worst
patients.
>> Alan: Well, that's true,
that's true.
But I actually think I'm doing
the right thing.
The last thing I wanna be is
at home contemplating how
I could've changed the outcome,
you know?
>> Traci: Yeah, well, then
by all means, you stay busy.
>> Alan: What about you?
You-- you've been through
quite an ordeal yourself.
>> Traci: Uh, I don't know.
Um, I will go have a good long
cry because that is what I do.
No, no, hopefully I'll get some
sleep and maybe I'll read
a good book and maybe I'll write
a good book.
>> Alan: Well, I mean, that's
later, but what about now?
>> Traci: I don't know, um,
I honestly,
I don't know what to do.
Every nerve in my body is
either on fire or it's as cold
as ice.
My mind is trying to cope, but
my body tells me that something
really terrible has happened.
I don't know, maybe it's
adrenaline or cortisol.
You certainly would know more
about that than I do,
but I-- ever since I woke up
this morning, I just--
I can't stop trembling.
>> Alan: May I?
Traci, please.
Let's try it, huh?
>> Traci: Thank you.
>> Alan: Thank you.
>> Cole: Okay, Victor, name it.
I'm up for the challenge.
>> Michael: No, no, no,
hold on, Cole.
Uh, I think we should get a hint
of what the gauntlet is before
we agree to run it.
I've had assignments from
Victor where I've landed in
a Peruvian prison.
>> Victor: Neither of you
will end up behind bars
in any country.
>> Michael: Yeah, okay,
but I still think we should hear
all the details before we agree
to commit to it.
>> Victor: I have a separate
request for each of you.
>> Cole: I'm eager to hear it.
>> Michael: Me too.
>> Victor: Michael Baldwin,
I want you to rekindle your
friendship with Diane Abbott.
>> Alan: Ashley.
>> Traci: Oh, Ashley, I was just
about to come looking for you.
>> Ashley: No, not necessary.
I did what I had to do,
now I'm back and I'm ready
to move forward.
>> Alan: Well, everything's
prepared at the clinic and, uh,
they're expecting you shortly.
>> Ashley: VIP treatment,
I hope.
>> Alan: Nothing but the best
for you.
>> Ashley: Thank you.
>> Alan: Well, they understand
your situation and they will
treat you with nothing but care,
kindness, and compassion.
>> Ashley: Okay,
I appreciate it.
>> Traci: So how did everything
go with Tucker?
>> Ashley: You know what,
really well, really well.
I was able to clear
my conscience and now I can
move on to the next chapter
of my life.
>> Tucker: Audra, wait,
let me explain.
>> Audra: Sorry, Tucker,
but no explanation needed.
You are a free man now,
you can do whatever you want.
>> Tucker: Good, what I want is
to tell you what happened.
Please.
>> Audra: Tucker, I mean this
from the bottom of my heart.
I don't care.
I went over there to hear what
you had to say, but then
I realized, what is the point?
>> Tucker: So you're angry
because I asked you to wait
a second? What is this?
>> Audra: I'm not angry,
I'm bored.
I'm tired of
your games and your maneuvers,
of the way you think that
your priorities are
the only ones that matter.
>> Tucker: Please stop,
just listen for one minute.
Let me explain what happened
with Ashley.
>> Audra: No, please do, Tucker,
explain why you let her believe
that we were still together.
Are you trying
to make her jealous?
Weave your web to suck her back
in because I got away.
No, but that look in her eyes,
that was goodbye, Tucker,
because she can finally see you
for what you are and so do I.
>> Tucker: How long are
we gonna do this?
This dance of ours?
We both know how we feel if--
>> Audra: That, that.
You know, the way that you
always assume that we feel
the same about anything,
but we don't, Tucker,
because I have the emotions of
a normal human being
and you don't.
>> Tucker: Are you at least
curious about my proposition?
I doubt you would've shown up
at my door if you weren't.
>> Audra: You know, you just
think you know me so well.
>> Tucker: Yeah, I think I do,
but first,
please let me explain.
Give me five minutes
and I promise it could change
everything.
>> Victor: And here's my request
for you, Cole.
I understand that Claire's
working in the Abbott household
for Kyle, babysitting Harrison,
is that correct?
>> Cole: You know she is.
What does that have to do
with anything?
>> Victor: I want you to create
a friendship with Kyle.
Get to know him better.
>> Cole: And you want me
to do that, why?
>> Victor: That's of no interest
to you right now.
This is a request you should be
able to fulfill easily.
>> Cole: Well, I'd still like
to know.
>> Victor: I'm trying to protect
your daughter, my granddaughter,
and my great-grandson.
Is that clear?
>> Michael: Well, if that's your
answer to Cole, what's so
legitimate about a request
involving Diane?
>> Victor: They're all part of
the same family, aren't they?
>> Michael: Hmm.
Wait a minute.
There's only one through line
I can think of between Kyle
and Diane,
and that's Jack Abbott.
What are you up to now, Victor?
