>> Billy: Hey.
>> Lily: Billy, I can't go for a drink, okay?
I'm so busy, I have so much to do.
>> Billy: Does that include staring off into space?
>> Lily: What?
>> Billy: I was watching you for a second or two.
>> Lily: Okay, well, don't.
>> Billy: Okay, well, does it change your mind if
I bring you gifts?
I brought happy hour to you.
Come on, let me buy you a drink.
>> Tucker: You secretly gathered the capital to buy Glissade,
and you have convinced the board to go along with the buyout.
>> Audra: Yep, and it went as well as I hoped.
>> Tucker: Where is this coming from?
Have you-- you not heard a word that I have said to you?
I have never stopped loving you.
I-- I have-- I have made peace with Ashley, finally.
I have shut that door, and I'm here, and I'm-- and I'm ready
to move on with you.
And we can have the life, the future that we want.
>> Audra: Look, I will have the future that I want, and the best
part is that it doesn't include you.
>> Tucker: But, what we have it doesn't just go away.
>> Audra: No, it doesn't, Tucker.
It gets chipped at by a man who is so selfish that after
a while, there's nothing left but ashes.
>> Tucker: You don't really mean that.
>> Audra: Do you have any idea how many times you burned me?
How long it took for me to realize that there was never
any room in this relationship for anything other than what
you wanted.
>> Tucker: And I don't know what to say.
I'm ready to commit to you completely, right here
and right now.
>> Audra: I think you really believe that.
The problem is, it sounds a lot like the promise you made last
time and the time before that and the time before that.
>> Tucker: I get you're angry at me, but...
>> Audra: I'm not angry.
Now you're making me angry.
This is business.
>> Tucker: Please listen to me.
I love you.
I want a life with you.
That's all I want.
You are all I want.
>> Audra: You know, right now in this moment, I think you, uh...
It might be true, I don't know.
But tomorrow or the next day or the day after that, there's
gonna be some shiny new object that's gonna be more important.
And they have my sincere sympathies.
>> Tucker: Audra.
>> Audra: This is what losing feels like.
And it's only gonna get worse.
>> Jack: I will always be there for you.
You can call me any time, day or night.
Yeah.
We'll talk soon.
>> Diane: I don't suppose you care to share who that was?
>> Jack: That was Traci.
>> Diane: Oh.
Oh, well, how is Traci and Ashley?
Are they okay?
>> Jack: I assume from that tone, you thought I was talking
to Nikki.
>> Diane: Well, I would try to deny it, but it seems kind of
silly at this point.
Yes, I thought you were.
>> Jack: Well, if I haven't made my intentions clear,
let me repeat them.
I am not going to be Nikki's sponsor, but I am going to
continue to talk to my friend going forward, as I always
have, whether you and Victor like it or not.
♪♪♪
>> Kyle: Hey, Victor.
>> Victor: Hey, Kyle.
Why don't you join me for a drink?
>> Kyle: I would, but I'm just grabbing some takeout.
I need to get back to Harrison.
>> Victor: How's Harrison doing after that terrible ordeal?
>> Kyle: He's great, actually.
>> Victor: Really?
>> Kyle: They say kids are resilient, and he's proven that
over and over again.
>> Victor: Wow.
Very nice to hear.
You know, I gotta tell you, I've lived a little longer than
you have, but the parent-child relationship is arguably the
most important thing in life, you know?
Don't ever forget it.
>> Kyle: Agreed.
>> Victor: Yeah.
>> Kyle: Now, if you'll excuse me.
>> Victor: If you don't mind, I'd like to discuss something
with you.
>> Lily: Have you always had this skill?
>> Billy: That sounds like a setup.
>> Lily: Where you just ignore subtle hints to go away?
>> Billy: I'm fully capable of ignoring not-so-subtle hints,
too.
So this is from the office kitchen, so it's about as good
as it gets.
>> Lily: Okay, Billy, I do not have time for this.
I don't.
>> Billy: Salt and vinegar chips.
These are your favorite.
>> Lily: You are ruthlessly charming.
You know that?
>> Billy: I hope it's working.
>> Lily: What, that you're gonna entice me with potato chips,
and I'm gonna help you make Chancellor-Winters into
your image?
No, I don't think so.
>> Billy: I'm hoping to convince you that what I am after is
actually right for Chancellor- Winters, and maybe even you.
>> Lily: I'm not gonna be sweet-talked with snacks, Billy.
>> Billy: Okay, well, cards on the table, there's gonna be a
little sweet-talk and a little bit of pressure, but nothing you
can't handle.
>> Lily: Exactly.
So why bother?
>> Billy: Because I know you know that my proposals
are the right way to go.
>> Lily: Just one.
>> Tucker: This isn't you, Audra.
>> Audra: It is.
I have the money, I have the votes.
Glissade will be mine by the end of the day tomorrow.
>> Tucker: I just don't believe that you would do such a thing.
>> Audra: Look, I don't care whether you do or you don't.
In fact, don't.
Hold out hope.
Hang on to your delusions.
The shock of it all will be that much worse.
>> Tucker: So you say you found some angel investor
to back you and your buyout.
>> Audra: I wouldn't call them an angel.
>> Tucker: Who is this?
>> Diane: I'm sorry, Jack.
I just assumed that you were speaking with Nikki.
And I shouldn't have reacted the way I did.
Of course I understand how important your friendship is
with her, and I would never do anything to get in the way
of that.
>> Jack: I really wanna believe that.
>> Diane: Well, believe it.
>> Jack: As long as Nikki doesn't call too often or
doesn't wanna get together with a frequency that you deem
inappropriate or wants to go to meetings so that we can be
mutually supportive.
>> Diane: Jack, I respect your relationship.
>> Jack: I hope you do.
[ Diane sighs ] >> Diane: So, um,
what did Traci say?
Any updates on Ashley?
>> Jack: Ashley is settling in at the new clinic
with Alan's help.
>> Diane: That's good.
Um, are you going to get dessert?
>> Jack: No, I think I'll just have some coffee.
>> Diane: Okay.
You know, I asked Kyle to join us, but, um, he turned me down
again.
>> Jack: Maybe he had plans.
>> Diane: No, the only plans Kyle has these days is to either
avoid me or irritate me by-- by going behind my back at work.
>> Jack: This is still going on.
How is it you haven't resolved your issues with him
to this point?
>> Diane: I've tried many times, but Kyle refuses to meet me
even halfway.
You know what?
I am starting to think that he doesn't wanna resolve
the conflict at all.
>> Kyle: Yes, Victor?
What would you like to discuss?
>> Victor: You know, Kyle, last time that I visited your home,
I was very happy to see Claire and Harrison getting along
so well.
How's she doing as a nanny?
>> Kyle: Oh, Claire's a natural.
>> Victor: Yeah?
>> Kyle: She's engaged, energetic, always one step ahead
of Harrison's needs.
He adores her.
>> Victor: How nice.
>> Kyle: Couldn't ask for a better match.
>> Victor: Wonderful.
And how's Summer dealing with it all?
>> Kyle: She sees how happy Harrison is.
>> Victor: Uh-huh.
Good.
That's really very important for me to know that Claire's
at a place where she feels comfortable, you know?
>> Kyle: That's very generous of you.
And you're not the only one looking out for her.
>> Victor: Oh, yeah?
>> Kyle: Cole asked me to join him for a beer
one of these days.
>> Victor: Really?
Huh.
>> Kyle: Yeah, it took me by surprise because I barely know
him, but Claire assumes it's just her father
being protective.
>> Victor: Well, it's what parents do.
Yeah.
Talking about parents, how's your own family doing?
>> Kyle: We put the fun in dysfunctional.
>> Victor: Really?
>> Kyle: Hmm.
>> Victor: And your job at Jabot, I understand you still
have to answer to your mother, although she's just learning
the job.
>> Kyle: Hmm.
More fun.
>> Victor: Yeah?
Well, as you perhaps remember, I always told you that you're
wasting your time at Jabot.
You're much too capable, Kyle.
And I just get the sense that you're not quite happy with
your present job.
>> Kyle: Well...
>> Victor: Perhaps it's time to consider a change.
>> Kyle: What did you have in mind?
>> Jack: This tension between you and Kyle isn't just felt
at work.
The two of you can't be in the same room at home.
>> Diane: You've noticed.
>> Jack: Yeah, it's hard not to.
>> Diane: Do you wanna talk to him?
>> Jack: I have talked to him.
He continues to downplay the tension, says he's on your
side, he wants to help in any way he can.
>> Diane: And he also admitted to you that he resents me
for having his job.
I'm not making this up, Jack.
The only help Kyle is offering me is to help me out of
the position that he wants for himself.
>> Jack: As I've said before, it is up to the two of you to
find a way to work through this.
>> Diane: How? How?
When he undermines me at every turn, and he speaks down to me.
You know, it's almost like he's trying to break me,
force me to quit.
>> Jack: Think maybe you're being a little dramatic.
>> Diane: All right, let's talk about the Jasper Foley deal.
>> Jack: What about it?
>> Diane: It was mine.
I saw the benefit of licensing his products, so I reached out,
I made the deal, and then guess what?
Kyle went behind my back and negotiated his own deal.
>> Jack: Are you sure it wasn't just some misunderstanding?
>> Diane: No, it wasn't a misunderstanding.
Kyle contacted Foley before the meeting I had scheduled
with him.
And then Kyle tells me that Foley thought I didn't have
the chops, which wasn't true.
>> Jack: That is troubling, but the deal closed?
>> Diane: Yes, it did.
Under the best terms possible because of the deal
that I had made.
And in spite of Kyle's interference, it's like
he continually goes to great lengths to show me up even
after he's been called out for it.
I'm not wrong about this, Jack.
If there's one thing I can tell, it's when someone's out
to get me.
>> Lily: So have you talked to Jill about how she's doing?
>> Billy: Yeah, I mean, we were in contact, or we have been in
contact every day, but we fell off the last few, so I had
a conversation with Snapper.
He said that she is going through treatment and that it's
been difficult, but she's doing well, so.
>> Lily: Good.
That's good.
>> Billy: Yeah.
>> Lily: And I'm guessing that she doesn't know that I know
about her heart problem?
>> Billy: She does not know.
But that is not because I haven't had the opportunity
to tell her.
It's because I decided not to tell her.
>> Lily: Why?
>> Billy: Because she swore me to secrecy, and she would be
very unhappy if she knows that I betrayed her, even if it was
to you.
And I don't wanna add any more stress on top of what
she's going through.
>> Lily: Well, maybe you shouldn't have broken
your promise then.
>> Billy: I told you because I know how much you care about
her, and I'm hoping that you can understand why I am so intent
on adding Abbott to the Chancellor-Winter's name.
>> Lily: And I still can't tell Devon about Jill's condition?
>> Billy: I'm afraid not.
>> Lily: I don't like keeping secrets from my brother.
>> Billy: I understand that, but it's just the way it's gotta
be right now.
>> Lily: Or until you can use it to get what you want.
>> Billy: Do you have another way of honoring my mother's
legacy and her contribution to this company other than
adding the Abbott name?
>> Lily: Yeah, be honest with Devon.
I mean, what is wrong with total transparency?
>> Billy: Lily, this is what my mother wants right now, okay?
I'm not gonna argue with her.
>> Lily: Devon can be discreet.
>> Billy: Just trust me right now.
The timing is not right.
>> Lily: Uh, sorry, what does timing have to do with it?
I mean, your best chance of convincing Devon and the board
is to just tell everyone what's going on, especially since
Devon and Nate already shot the idea down.
>> Billy: Okay, well, Nate doesn't have any voting power,
and there's nobody that hates change more than Devon, okay?
And I know-- >> Lily: Okay, that's not fair,
Billy.
>> Billy: The proposal that I am going after right now, adding my
mother's name to this company, it's-- it's valid.
It's the right thing to do.
It takes nothing away from you and Devon.
And I think you can understand how important it is for me
to make this happen.
>> Audra: Why would I tell you who the investor is when it will
be so much more fun for you to be surprised?
>> Tucker: But I am offering you, Glissade.
Why would you work for someone else when you can own it
outright, scot-free?
>> Audra: I will be working with someone else, not for them.
And there's no such thing as scot-free with you.
There's always a catch.
Even when you swear up and down, there isn't.
So I am fine with enlisting a little help to take control
of Glissade without any magnanimous gestures
on your part.
>> Tucker: You're actually enjoying this, aren't you?
>> Audra: I'm loving it.
>> Tucker: It's not gonna work.
>> Audra: It already is.
And there's nothing you can do about it.
Accept it, Tucker.
Recognize that you have failed in every way possible.
You know, I am gonna live my life on my terms.
Mine, not yours.
And taking Glissade away from you is the perfect compensation
for every bit of hell you ever put me through.
>> Tucker: Audra.
>> Audra: Don't embarrass yourself.
>> Tucker: I get what you're doing.
Congratulations, you've done it.
Consider me chastened thoroughly.
Consider me put in my place.
Can we move on now?
>> Audra: I am tired of repeating myself.
I told you exactly what it is that I wanted, for you to lose
and for me to win, and now I have.
>> Lily: Okay, let's just say for argument's sake that we add
Abbott to the name.
Then what?
>> Billy: Phase two is you and I take over.
>> Lily: Oh, okay, so here we're at the ego part.
>> Billy: No, it's not ego.
It's for the company's benefit.
And look, I don't even wanna bring up his name,
but Victor Newman, the power monger he is,
he's right about one thing.
You need strong leadership at the top, a definitive voice.
You and I together, we are that singular vision.
>> Lily: Oh, my God.
I mean, you say that with no self-awareness and no shame
at all.
>> Billy: Self-awareness, absolutely.
Shame, no.
Why would I have shame when it's the right thing to do?
>> Lily: And it's selfish.
>> Billy: Why do you say that?
>> Lily: Jill brought you in unilaterally to fill in for me,
and then you decide that you wanna stay, and now you wanna
push Devon to some secondary role.
I mean, you're hijacking his company, his position.
It's like, do you not see what's wrong with that?
>> Billy: No, not really.
>> Lily: I mean, you basically say that you wanna honor Jill's
legacy by adding her name, honoring her contributions
and all of her work, and then in the very next breath,
you wanna cut Devon out.
I mean, what about his contributions and his work?
Like, do you not see the hypocrisy, or do you just
not care?
>> Tucker: Please take a step back
and think about what you're saying and doing.
>> Audra: I know exactly what I'm doing.
I'm winning.
And you lost.
Twice.
Glissade and me.
[ Tucker sighs ] >> Tucker: Okay.
Okay, you wanna walk away from me, then...
Breaks my heart, but okay.
I'm not gonna let you walk away with Glissade.
>> Audra: That's what you're not understanding.
I already have.
>> Tucker: Well, I-- I talked to the board.
They made it clear to me that they're remaining loyal to me.
>> Audra: And it's not at all possible that they told you what
you wanted to hear and said what I wanted them to say?
Is it not possible that after years of watching you in
action, I've been one step ahead of you all this time?
>> Victor: Let me put it this way, Kyle.
There's always an opportunity for energetic, bright, young
executives at Newman.
>> Kyle: You know how much respect I have
for Newman Enterprises.
I've worked there more than once, and we've parted ways
on less than stellar terms.
>> Victor: Well, that's all water under the bridge.
So let me ask you something.
Are you fulfilled?
Do you feel a sense of accomplishment at the present
job you're doing?
>> Kyle: And if I don't?
>> Victor: Well, do you?
>> Kyle: Why do I get the feeling there's more to this
conversation than classic Victor Newman advice?
>> Victor: Well, Kyle, as I said, there's always room
for someone like you at my company, okay?
So let's keep this dialogue open.
>> Nikki: Good evening.
>> Jack: Hi.
Good to see you.
>> Diane: Nikki.
>> Nikki: Diane.
I owe you an apology.
>> Diane: For what?
>> Nikki: The last time I saw you, when I came by to see Jack,
I had just gotten out of rehab.
I was racing for the door.
But I should've taken a moment to tell you how sorry
I am to have put you through that night of hell.
Not knowing where Jack was, learning about the overdose,
how he almost died, trying to help me.
I'm just so sorry about all of it.
>> Diane: Well, I appreciate you saying that.
>> Jack: Ooh, I've been waiting for this call.
Uh, I will be back.
>> Diane: By all means.
>> Nikki: Oh.
Um, I-- I think my takeout is ready, so...
>> Diane: Uh, Nikki, wait.
I think there's more for us to say.
>> Nikki: Do you?
>> Diane: Yes.
Join me.
>> Diane: I hope I didn't make
that seem too ominous.
I won't bite, I promise.
>> Nikki: I think I have a feeling where this is going.
>> Diane: Do you?
>> Nikki: I appreciate you accepting my apology
in front of Jack.
But you haven't entirely forgiven me, have you?
>> Diane: Nikki, I don't wanna argue.
>> Nikki: Well, I don't either, but we can certainly have
an honest conversation.
>> Diane: All right, I'm all for honesty.
You first.
What's on your mind?
>> Nikki: I know you were upset when I asked Jack to continue
as my sponsor.
>> Diane: He told you that?
>> Nikki: No, he did not.
But it wasn't hard to read between the lines.
>> Diane: All right, there was a conversation, but can you
blame me?
>> Nikki: Jack almost died because of me, and it must've
been so hard for you to come so close to losing him
and realizing how far he would go for a friend, a friend that
you would prefer he spend as little time with as possible.
So I can only imagine the friction that that caused,
and I am so sorry if it put your marriage into a precarious
place.
I hope there won't be any lingering effects.
>> Diane: It's really thoughtful of you to be concerned about
my marriage, but Jack and I are as solid as ever.
I just hope that what happened that night doesn't have any
lingering effects on your marriage.
>> Billy: The problems that this company are having are
because of Devon, okay?
It's not my fault that he's so bullheaded that it only has
to be his way, and it makes it impossible for anyone else
to work together.
>> Lily: Yeah, and your solution is just to cut him out?
>> Billy: I'm not cutting him out, it's just, you know,
we need to manage him.
>> Lily: That is very arrogant.
>> Billy: It's good business.
Devon's left me no choice.
>> Lily: No, you always have a choice, and it's not just
your decision to make.
>> Billy: No, I fully understand that, but I believe I can
convince the board with your help.
>> Lily: No, I-- I do not like it.
>> Billy: Devon is still gonna be here, okay?
It's just gonna be in a different capacity.
>> Lily: I understand wanting to add Jill's name to honor her
legacy, but the rest of it feels like a power grab.
>> Billy: Why do you see it that way?
Because I wanna take this company to the-- to the top?
To where I know that it belongs?
Lily, you and me together, we can show the world
the innovation and excitement that Abbott Chancellor-Winters
is capable of generating.
>> Lily: Yeah, and you can make a point to Jack and your family
that screw-up Billy is now a force to be reckoned with,
right?
>> Billy: Tell me honestly, do you really think I'm that
shallow and needy?
Or are you just making excuses because you're too afraid
to take the leap with me?
Too afraid to alienate Devon and your family to go after
something you know you deserve?
>> Tucker: So how did you pull off a move on this scale?
>> Audra: Let me break it down for you.
Before, during, and after the acquisition of Glissade
and all the other companies, I was the one on the ground,
doing the work, negotiating the deals, overseeing
every detail.
The board and staff know that I can get things done because
they've actually seen me do it.
But you-- you, you're nothing but a name cc'd on emails.
>> Tucker: The plan was always for you to-- to head the company
yourself, so of course I let you run the show.
>> Audra: You let me?
You needed me, Tucker.
You needed someone to hide behind, someone legitimate
because your name is toxic, and you're never gonna be able
to escape that.
>> Tucker: You've made some sketchy moves yourself.
>> Audra: I own it.
I know what I want.
And I commit 100% at all times to getting it.
You-- you don't know how to commit to anything, Tucker.
And it's not just me.
I finally figured out that you always seem to want what's just
out of reach.
Ashley, Devon.
You keep chasing after them, making promises, begging them
to give you another chance.
And then when they actually do, you do what you always do.
You lie.
You change your mind.
You let them down.
Because nothing and no one will ever be as important as your
fragile little ego.
>> Nikki: Victor and I are just fine.
>> Diane: Hmm, glad to hear it.
>> Nikki: Why would you think otherwise?
>> Diane: Ah, because I ran into Victor the other day.
And not surprising, the subject of Jack being your sponsor
came up.
You know, for once, Victor and I actually agree on something.
It was a bad idea, and it was risky from the beginning,
and it never should've happened.
>> Nikki: I wouldn't expect you to understand how much Jack's
support meant to me.
He helped me a great deal.
>> Diane: Except he had to almost kill himself to get you
to see the wisdom of going to rehab.
But, hey, you went.
Good for you.
It's not like anyone actually had to die, right?
>> Nikki: Oh, there is the anger that I was expecting.
>> Diane: Well, your husband seemed just as angry when we
spoke, which is why I am so concerned about your marriage.
>> Nikki: Again, Victor and I are happier than ever.
And since you and Jack are doing so well, why don't we
just enjoy our happy marriages and avoid a family feud?
>> Diane: That's a great idea.
All Jack and I want is peace.
You know, it's kind of funny.
This whole thing has made us even stronger.
And look at you.
You are thriving in your sobriety.
I wish you nothing but the best going forward.
>> Nikki: How very kind of you.
>> Diane: And good luck finding a new sponsor.
I know it'll be hard for you to replace Jack, but if I could
make a suggestion...
>> Nikki: As if I could stop you?
>> Diane: Perhaps you could try leaning on your own husband.
If you and Victor are happier than ever, then you shouldn't
feel the need to constantly seek out an old friend who
feels obligated to pick up the phone every single time
you call.
>> Nikki: My friendship with Jack is not subject to your
approval or disapproval.
I'm sure even you can understand that.
>> Diane: Oh, of course.
But if a line were to be crossed, we would have
a problem.
>> Jack: Everything good here?
>> Diane: It certainly is.
>> Nikki: Couldn't be better.
And, uh, now my order is ready.
Have a good evening.
>> Jack: See ya.
What did I miss?
>> Diane: Nothing.
>> Jack: Really?
>> Diane: Yeah.
Uh, you know, I could use a nightcap.
How about you?
>> Jack: Actually, I've made other plans tonight.
I have to leave town.
>> Tucker: You break my heart.
>> Audra: That would require you to have one.
>> Diane: It's such short notice.
>> Jack: You can't object to me going to Paris to check on
Ashley and Traci.
>> Diane: Well, of course not.
I would expect nothing less than for you to be there for
your sisters after everything you've been through.
>> Jack: This family comes together whenever there's
a crisis.
Hey, I'm sorry we missed having dinner with you tonight.
>> Kyle: Yeah, Claire left her wallet here, so I ran
by the tack house.
I got some takeout and came home to hang with Harrison.
We just finished reading a story.
>> Diane: Claire?
So those are the big plans you had where you couldn't have
dinner with us?
>> Kyle: Some people consider spending time with their child
a very important plan.
Certainly more important than spending yet another meal with
people I see at the office every day.
>> Diane: That's not what I meant, and you know it.
Is it really that hard to spend time with me?
>> Kyle: Ease up, Mom.
There'll be other nights.
There will be other dinners.
>> Diane: Yes, and always this tension.
Kyle, we need to find a way to work through this.
>> Kyle: I really don't feel like starting up this argument
right now.
>> Diane: I'm not starting anything because it never ends.
>> Kyle: Because if we don't see eye to eye on some issues at
work, we're not going to agree on every decision at Jabot.
It's business 101.
>> Diane: Okay, I'm not bringing this up because of conflict
at Jabot, but because we're family, and we have to find
a way to work together so that we don't bring this tension home
and poison our lives.
>> Kyle: Mom, you're the one who dragged it through
the front door.
I was perfectly happy reading to my son.
>> Jack: I have asked you and your mother several times
to handle this, and yet here we are.
>> Kyle: Because she doesn't understand I'm trying to help
her, cover for her when she's in over her head.
>> Diane: Oh!
>> Jack: I would ask that you show your mother, my co-CEO,
a little respect.
>> Kyle: It goes both ways, Dad.
>> Jack: Did you go around Diane's back for this
Jasper Foley deal?
>> Kyle: Really?
So, so what?
You're gonna put me in timeout because I colored
outside the lines?
It's business.
>> Jack: It was your mother's deal.
>> Kyle: And it's up to her to finalize it.
As my superior, it's in her hands at this point.
>> Diane: As a matter of fact, it has been finalized.
By me.
So why don't you stop sabotaging me and stop it with
the snide comments and just tell us how you really feel?
>> Jack: Your mother's right.
Just a few weeks ago, you admitted that you were jealous
of her for the position you felt you deserved.
Well, if you can't get past it, we need to talk about this and
find out where we go from here.
>> Kyle: Hmm, so it's all me.
That's it.
It's like you want me to be the bad guy.
>> Diane: Kyle.
>> Jack: Kyle, if we just sit...
>> Lily: This is not about fear, Billy.
This is about doing what's best for the company, which means
doing what's best for my family.
And Devon and I worked really hard to get past it after our
last debacle.
And I'm not gonna do that again.
>> Billy: Lily, I fully understand your loyalty
to Devon.
I understand how much you love him, but it's holding you back.
It's holding this company back.
Look, just remember, okay, for a second, how good we were
at Chance Com.
We killed it, okay?
And we can do that again, but on a bigger scale.
Our savvy, our edge, we can take Chancellor-Winters
to a new height.
You say you wanna do what's right for this company.
How can you not be excited about that?
>> Lily: Wow.
This is really just another high for you, isn't it?
Except this time, you're gambling with the future of
my family's company.
>> Billy: No, that's not at all what this is about.
>> Lily: Are you sure about that?
>> Billy: Are you asking me if I'm excited about the potential
of us?
Yes, 100% I am.
But it has nothing to do with gambling.
It's about recognizing that now is our time.
You and me together with this company, Lily.
So what do I have to do to convince you that this is
our shot?
>> Dawn: I got here as fast as I could. What's happened?
>> Tucker: Audra made an end run and may have actually scored
this time.
>> Dawn: What did she do?
>> Tucker: She claims to have the board in her back pocket and
an anonymous investor ready to buy up all of Glissade.
>> Dawn: Is that really possible?
>> Tucker: You spoke to the board, correct?
And they're all on our side.
>> Dawn: They are.
>> Tucker: She claims to have convinced them to lie.
>> Dawn: What are you gonna do?
>> Tucker: Uh...
I need you on the inside.
So call each member of the board.
Tell them you talked to Audra.
That she got to you.
She convinced you to join her and betray me.
And see if you can find out if there's any truth
to her claims.
>> Dawn: I'll get right on it.
>> Tucker: Also, see if you can find out who's willing to spend
a fortune to steal Glissade out from under me.
[ cell phone buzzes ] >> Audra: Thank you for getting
back to me so quickly.
Everything is set for tomorrow morning.
Tucker is guaranteed to be the lone vote against the sale.
I trust everything is set on your end?
The funds are lined up?
Good.
If everything goes according to plan and I see no reason why it
won't, Glissade will be ours.
>> Victor: You've done a wonderful job, you know.
And I'm looking forward to a very, very productive
partnership with you at the head of Glissade.
And together I think we will be a formidable team.
We'll create a cosmetics company that will crush
whoever comes our way.
All right?
>> Announcer: Next week on the Young and the Restless.
>> Victoria: Kids, um, I would like for you to meet your
sister, Claire.
>> Daniel: You came.
I wasn't sure if you would.
>> Lily: Well, I hope it wasn't a mistake.
>> Faith: You're just in time.
Mom and Dad are about to tell me their whole love story.
>> Nick: We are?
>> Tucker: I'm having trouble breathing.
>> Audra: What the hell?
