>> Chelsea: What do you think?
I tried to get us a room
overlooking the harbor,
but those rooms were booked.
>> Connor: That's okay.
We got to see the harbor IRL.
In real life.
>> Chelsea: Oh, IRL.
Thank you for the translation.
>> Adam: And how cool were those
old schooners, huh?
We'll have to take a ride
on one.
>> Connor: Can we do that today?
After we eat?
>> Chelsea: Well, maybe we'll
save that for next time.
We don't want to overdo it.
Plus, we need
to get you back soon.
>> Adam: But today has been
awesome, buddy.
And it is so great
to see you and to be
able to leave campus.
>> Connor: Yeah.
Being able to get out
of there's amazing.
I mean, they are helping me.
You can tell, right?
>> Adam: Mm.
>> Connor: This is fun, the
three of us. Like before.
>> Chelsea: Yeah. So much fun.
>> Connor: Oh. That's like
the millionth hug.
>> Adam: Yeah, and you're
hogging him. I've only
had a thousand.
♪♪
>> Billy: Hey, I got your text.
Or should I say summons?
>> Chance: Yeah, I'm sorry
about that. I really needed to
talk to you. Didn't want to
do it in the office.
>> Billy: I think
I know what this is about.
I'm assuming you heard
some rumblings.
>> Chance: Yeah, you could
say that.
>> Billy: Okay, well, you know
that I would have brought you
up to speed if I could.
>> Chance: No, it's fine.
I get it, man.
>> Billy: There's a lot of
moving parts. Just had to put
the pieces together to make sure
that we had Lily on
our side before, you know,
to guarantee we had the votes.
>> Chance: Wait, what are
you talking about?
>> Billy: What are you
talking about?
>> Chance: I'm talking about
Jill. I heard about
her condition.
It worries the hell out of me.
>> Lily: Why were you
questioning me like that
in front of Billy?
>> Devon: What are you talking
about? I had to say something.
Was I supposed to just
roll over and go, "Yeah,
let's split up the company.
See you later, Lily."
>> Lily: You were interrogating
me like I was a traitor.
>> Devon: What?
>> Nate: You did go at her
pretty hard.
>> Devon: I-- Are
you guys kidding?
I had to make it seem like
I felt a little betrayed or else
Billy would have suspected
something, don't you think?
>> Lily: Oh, well, bravo,
because it was quite
the performance.
>> Devon: Come on, really?
>> Lily: No, it was
a little too real, Devon.
It was like borderline hurtful.
>> Devon: You know this whole
thing isn't going to work unless
I sell it, right?
>> Lily: Then why did it feel
like you were trying
to trip me up?
>> Devon: Why would I
want to trip you up?
>> Lily: I don't know, because
everything is going
according to plan.
Billy is convinced
that I'm going to run
Abbott-Chancellor with him.
And all we have to do is keep
him convinced of that until
we divide the companies.
>> Devon: I understand.
I know what the plan is.
>> Lily: Okay, then why does it
feel like you're trying to
sabotage it?
>> Devon: I don't know
'cause I'm certainly not.
But the fact that you're getting
so upset over nothing,
it makes me wonder if this is
what you really want to do.
>> Chelsea: All right,
all right. I will
ration my hugs from here on out.
Our time is limited and
we have other things to do.
>> Adam: Like diving into this
pizza before it gets cold.
>> Connor: It'd be good if this
day could last a week
or even forever.
Just go back to Genoa City
and everything is normal.
>> Adam: Hm. Well, normal is
never that normal,
but I hear you.
>> Chelsea: Yeah. And we will
all be together again very soon.
And this day has been
perfect just the way it is.
>> Connor: I do have a group
session I have to get back to
and sticking to my schedule
is important.
>> Chelsea: Yeah, absolutely.
>> Adam: Mm-hmm. Well, eat.
We'll have you back
in plenty of time.
>> Connor: This is way better
than the food they serve.
I mean, the food's fine.
Great, really.
I know
the place is crazy expensive.
>> Adam: Where'd you
hear that from?
>> Connor: Some kids were
talking about it last night.
I feel bad you have to
spend all that money
just to make me better.
>> Adam: No-- [ exhaling ]
Connor, that's very
considerate of you, but it's a
non-issue. It doesn't
matter a bit.
>> Chelsea: Your dad's right.
That's what money is for.
To take care
of the people you love.
>> Connor: You're sure?
>> Adam: Positive, okay?
Don't give it another thought.
>> Connor: Thanks.
I still wish it didn't cost
so much.
I feel bad for the kids
whose parents don't have
money or don't have parents
as cool as you guys are.
So, thank you.
>> Chelsea: Sweetheart.
>> Adam: Yeah, we'll always be
here for you, buddy.
>> Connor: I know that.
Even when it seems like I don't.
And I know I'm lucky.
Some of the kids here, you know
their parents don't visit?
Like, they don't want to know
anything until it's all over.
They freak out it's taking
too long.
>> Chelsea: Well, it takes
as long as it takes.
>> Connor: Right.
That's what the doctor says
and for the first time ever,
I feel like I can get better.
That this place
is really helping me.
>> Chelsea: Well, I think your
dad and I can both see that.
>> Adam: Yeah.
>> Chelsea: Yeah.
>> Adam: We're all feeling
pretty hopeful.
>> Chelsea: But there is
one thing.
>> Connor: What?
>> Chelsea: I really need
another hug.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
If that's allowed, I...
>> Connor: Permission granted.
>> Chelsea: We love you so much.
>> Adam: Hey, hey, hey.
What about me? Huh?
Come here.
>> Billy: How did you
find out about my mom?
>> Chance: She told me.
She said you're the only person
she's talked to about this.
>> Billy: So you know why
I couldn't say anything?
>> Chance: Yeah.
>> Billy: She swore me
to silence.
>> Chance: She just told me
today, but it seems like this
has been going on for a while.
>> Billy: Yeah, a little bit.
You know,
she didn't want to worry anyone.
>> Chance: More like she doesn't
want anyone hovering or asking
too many questions, or worse,
showing signs of pity, right?
>> Billy: You know, you
shouldn't say pity and Jill in
the same sentence.
That'll get you fired.
>> Chance: Well, she told me
that everything's under control.
You know, she's
undergoing treatment.
The meds make her kind of tired,
but all is well and all
will be fine.
I can't stop worrying, though.
So please,
is she telling the truth?
Is she covering?
Help me out here.
>> Billy: Trust me, I've had the
exact same thoughts since
I found out.
I've been panicked.
You know, what if she doesn't
make it through this?
But I've also talked to Snapper,
and he seems optimistic,
so I think she's
telling the truth.
>> Chance: All right.
Yeah, I'd feel a lot better
if she was being treated
here instead of London.
>> Billy: Tell me about it.
>> Chance: You know, I can't
help but think of Katherine
when we lost her on the
bucket list tour, and well,
nobody got to say goodbye.
>> Billy: That's another reason
why I think she's telling the
truth. She knows how much
this affects everyone.
And if it was worse, I-- I think
that she would not be hiding it.
>> Chance: Well, that's a
relief. Yeah, I thought about
going to check up on her,
but I'm pretty sure she'd
read me the Riot Act, huh?
>> Billy: I guarantee you
she would. Yeah, I advise
against that. She'll let us know
when she wants company.
[ Chance sighing ]
>> Chance: I just wish there was
something I could do now.
>> Billy: Actually, um, I am
working on something in support
of my mother, her legacy.
I could use your help.
>> Lily: Why are you
doubting me all of a sudden?
Where is this coming from?
>> Devon: Well, for starters,
you're getting pretty
bent out of shape for no reason.
And I'd like to think
that I know when you're
bluffing, and you seem
pretty damn jazzed
about the pitch of joining Billy
and leaving Winters behind.
>> Lily: I mean, I'm trying to
sell my act the way
that you're selling your act.
>> Devon: Okay, sure, fair
enough. I also saw you and Billy
toasting earlier at Society
and you guys looked pretty
pleased with yourselves.
>> Lily: Oh, my God, Devon,
that's part of the performance.
Just like you're selling
your sense of betrayal,
I'm selling my excitement
to jump ship with Billy,
which is an idea that I shot
down in the past. I mean,
you-- you get that, right?
>> Nate: I gotta agree, Devon.
She's gotta sell her enthusiasm
just as much as you gotta
sell your skepticism.
>> Lily: Yeah, thank you.
I mean, okay,
can we go on with the plan now?
>> Devon: No, we can't.
Not yet. Because I think that
Nate is being a little generous
with you because he doesn't
know the full story.
>> Lily: What are you
talking about?
>> Devon: I told Nate about you
coming to me and telling me how
Billy was trying to get you to
join up with him
and basically oust me.
But what I didn't tell Nate is
how long it took you to share
that information with me.
It was, what, weeks?
A month?
>> Lily: I told you why I
waited. Things were very tense
between you and Billy.
I didn't want to make it worse.
>> Devon: I-- I know
know what you said.
>> Lily: And-- and what does
it matter how long I waited?
I wasn't going to go along
with his idea anyway.
>> Devon: Well, you're going
along with it now.
>> Lily: That's part of the
plan. Like, what do you think?
I'm just some liar who's
waiting to betray you?
>> Chelsea: Am I wrong?
It was really good, right?
Am-- am I wrong?
>> Adam: I-- I was just hoping
that I would finally get to see
him. Today, it
definitely surpassed that.
>> Chelsea: I mean, the
difference, Adam, between that
last video call with Connor and
today, it's-- it's amazing.
>> Adam: It's like he
finally turned a corner.
>> Chelsea: Look at you,
being all optimistic.
>> Adam: Hey. Who knew
I had it in me?
>> Chelsea: I mean, I don't want
to tease. This is really serious
stuff, but I'm-- I'm--
I'm giddy.
>> Adam: No, I get it.
It's like a giant weight has
been lifted off our shoulders.
>> Chelsea: Yeah.
>> Adam: So, you're allowed
a gentle jab at my expense.
I was the one who had
the doubts about the facility,
but after today, I can see
they know what they're doing.
Hey, you see that spark back
in his eyes again?
>> Chelsea: Yes, that spark.
That spark. I didn't think
we'd ever see that again.
And when he sat here
and said that, he, like, he
thanked us for being
there for him. Oh!
>> Adam: And he was
worried about the other kids
who weren't as lucky.
>> Chelsea: I know.
It feels like he's really
getting better, Adam.
>> Adam: I'm going to talk
to his doctors. I'm
going to ask them how they
feel about his progress.
Ask them about a timeline
for when he can come home.
>> Chelsea: Okay, okay. Well,
let's-- We just have to
slow down a little bit.
We have to be patient
with the doctors.
>> Adam: Wait, I mean,
I mean, that is patient.
It's involved.
It's advocating for our son the
way that he would want us to.
>> Chelsea: Right, but the
doctors have included us in all
the details of his progress and
everything. I just think we
have to continue to trust them.
>> Adam: Okay, okay. You're
right. Again.
>> Chelsea: Thank you.
What?
>> Adam: You...
don't cut me any slack.
And I mean that in the best
way possible. You don't just
assume I'm a lost cause.
I mean, how many
times have you stopped me
from blowing things up?
>> Chelsea: About as many times
as you've stopped me from
spinning out and
calmed me down.
>> Adam: None of this
has been easy.
>> Chelsea: I know.
But I'm glad we've had
each other to lean on.
>> Adam: Hm.
>> Chance: Well, hang on.
I'm a little confused.
Because when Mamie suggested
reversing the merger,
I know you were for it, but
Devon was dead set against it.
>> Billy: Which is another
reason, for many, I needed to
get Lily on our side so she
could help convince Devon.
>> Chance: But why would Lily
want to tear down what she
built? I mean, she
worked really hard to make
Chancellor-Winters a success.
>> Billy: There's no doubt about
that, but I think that she sees
where the problems are now.
You know,
all this constant infighting.
It's a drain on her,
it's a drain on the company.
With this plan,
we can tighten everything up and
we can get rid of the baggage.
>> Chance: You mean Devon
and Nate?
>> Billy: What I mean is there's
immense potential here,
and we need to be able to
make big and small decisions
without all the fighting.
And let's just be honest,
from the Chancellor side
of things, we don't need
the diversification
that the Winters company brings.
We focus on our wheelhouse.
We expand, we invest on
the things that we do well.
And if we do that,
Abbott-Chancellor
becomes a powerhouse.
>> Chance: Abbott-Chancellor.
You back on that again?
>> Billy: It's part of the plan.
It's a major point.
It's about your
grandmother's legacy.
It's about our family's success.
>> Chance: And the Winters
family be damned?
>> Billy: No, not at all.
They have the same opportunities
and the same benefits we have.
It's a win-win.
>> Chance: Yeah? Is that
how Nate and Devon see it?
>> Billy: Well, you know, Nate
played it close to his chest.
Devon, he was
a little more skeptical,
but he'll come around.
>> Chance: Okay, well, Devon's
opinion is the one that matters.
He's the one with
the board vote.
>> Billy: Well, let's
not forget that my mother
gave him her voting power,
so I have two votes.
Even if Abby decides to vote
with Devon in opposition,
we'll be fine.
>> Chance: Mm, I don't know.
It just seems like a contentious
way to get this done.
>> Billy: I don't think it's
going to get that far.
I'm confident that Lily
will convince Devon that this is
the right way to go.
We'll separate the companies
as friends.
Gave it a shot.
We learned a lot.
No harm, no foul.
>> Devon: No, Lily,
I don't think you're
trying to betray me.
I don't think you're lying,
all right?
At least not to me.
>> Lily: Then who am I lying to?
>> Devon: I-- Maybe yourself.
>> Lily: Oh, okay, so now
I don't know my own mind.
I mean, do you realize how
condescending you are?
>> Devon: I'm not trying to
sound or be condescending.
I'm trying to make sure
that you're not conflicted about
where you want to end up.
>> Lily: Okay, then please.
Explain it to me.
>> Devon: You've explained to me
many times about how Jill
handpicked you
to run Chancellor. Right?
Even over her own son
because she has faith in you.
And you had a lot of
success doing that.
You don't have that same
experience on the Winters side
of things.
>> Lily: So, sorry, am I too
experienced or not experienced
enough? Which one?
>> Devon: No, I'm saying that
they are two different
divisions. And currently, you
mostly handle things on the
Chancellor side, right?
>> Lily: Mm-hmm.
>> Devon: We agreed to run
Winters together.
>> Lily: And now, you're
having second thoughts.
>> Devon: No, I'm trying to
make sure that you're
not having second thoughts.
And that Billy hasn't
gotten into your head about
working together with me.
That's all this is about.
>> Lily: So, sorry,
you put me on the spot in front
of Billy to test my loyalty?
>> Devon: No, it's-- I--
>> Lily: I mean, how dare you
blindside me with a test I don't
even know I'm taking?
I told you what I wanted.
I'm the one who came
to you with this idea.
So, you know what?
If you don't trust me,
maybe I should reconsider
joining you at Winters.
>> Devon: So, tell me,
is this just you being upset?
Or is this you looking for
a reason to join Billy and
actually stay there with him?
>> Lily: Well, I don't have to
look. I mean, you're giving
me plenty of reasons.
Your whole attitude screams
that you don't want me
with you at Winters.
>> Devon: I've already told you,
that is not how I feel.
And like you said, we're
just playing parts, right?
>> Lily: Oh, I don't know.
I mean, it sounded pretty real
when you were asking Billy why
he even needs me to run
the company with him.
I mean, thank you
for that little improv.
>> Devon: Yeah, it sounded
pretty real when you were
talking about ditching Winters.
>> Nate: Hey, hey, hey.
We're getting way off track
here, okay? That's enough.
>> Devon: I disagree.
I think we're very much
on track 'cause I think
I deserve to know,
I think we all do,
if Billy's actually tempted you.
>> Lily: Oh, I want
to know if you actually
are pushing me because you've
realized that you don't
want me at Winters.
>> Devon: Well, why would I
change my mind about that?
>> Lily: I don't know.
Maybe Billy's right.
Maybe you do
want total autonomy.
>> Devon: So, you're going to
argue with me by quoting Billy,
the partner that you claim
you don't want.
>> Lily: Well, Billy
isn't the only one who's
dealt with your control issues.
Right, Nate?
>> Nate: Ooh, no, no.
Leave me out of this.
>> Devon: Lily, I would
understand if you started to
have a change of heart.
I would. I just want to know.
>> Lily: Oh, my God.
I don't know how to
convince you that I have
not changed my mind.
>> Devon: Well, I would
love to believe you.
>> Lily: Okay, you know what?
Believe it or not,
I am great at selling something
when I commit to it.
That's it.
So, if you would both
please leave, then maybe
I can get some actual work done.
>> Adam: Ah, it's perfect.
We can be at the jet by then.
Oh, and if you wouldn't mind
having some chilled champagne on
board, that would be great.
All right, thanks.
>> Chelsea: Champagne? Really?
>> Adam: I'm feeling in the mood
to celebrate.
>> Chelsea: Sounds perfect.
>> Adam: Didn't realize how
stressed I was about this trip
until now.
>> Chelsea: Oh, yeah.
I mean, I don't want
to get ahead of ourselves,
but when Connor said he wanted
things to get back to normal...
>> Adam: I would like
nothing better.
[ phone ringing ]
>> Chelsea: Oh, it's one
of Connor's doctors.
Hello, doctor.
No, it's great to hear from you.
Adam and I were going to
call you before we left tonight.
Should I put you on speaker?
Now?
Sure. Yeah, we're room 711.
Okay, bye.
Um, that was Dr. Hammond.
She's going to stop by.
>> Adam: Oh, well,
she didn't need to
do that. That-- We don't
want to be pushy, right?
>> Chelsea: Yeah, well, she said
since we're still here, she
wants to talk to us in person.
>> Adam: Huh.
>> Chelsea: What do you think
that means?
That doesn't sound good.
>> Adam: Well, it could mean she
wants to talk about
his progress.
Maybe give us a timeline,
like we hoped.
>> Chelsea: Yeah.
Yeah, I'm sure that's it.
>> Adam: Or maybe she wants to
see how the visit went.
Ask about his demeanor
while he was-- he was here.
>> Chelsea: Definitely.
And we will be sure to give
her a glowing report.
>> Billy: So, now that I've told
you about the plan, can I count
on you to have my back?
And not only that,
I'm going to need someone to
do the extra work that this
is all going to generate.
It's not going to be easy
separating these two companies,
especially after we worked
so hard to integrate them.
>> Chance: I'm in.
And I want to be a team player,
I want to do my part.
>> Billy: Oh, I see you having a
bigger role than just your part,
Chance. Maybe even
COO of Abbott-Chancellor.
How does that sound?
>> Chance: Sounds like I'll
need a new suit, right?
Oh.
[ indistinct chatting ]
>> Billy: Just remember, silence
on my mother's condition.
>> Chance: I'm a vault.
>> Billy: Thank you.
>> Devon: Hello, gentlemen.
>> Billy: Hey.
>> Devon: Chance, I, uh-- I
assume Billy's brought you up
to speed on his latest idea?
>> Chance: He sure did.
>> Devon: Yeah?
And what do you think about it?
Think it's the right
move for the company?
>> Chance: Well, I feel like the
more important question
is, how do you feel about it?
>> Devon: I'm on the fence.
>> Billy: Which I don't
understand. I mean, unless it's
for the same reason as always
because it was my idea and
Lily likes it and you don't want
me to get my way.
>> Devon: I mean, actually, I'd
be getting my way by not having
to work with you anymore, so.
>> Chance: What's going to push
you to one side of that fence?
>> Devon: I-- I'm going to go
with however the board votes.
>> Billy: Really?
>> Devon: Yeah.
>> Billy: Even though you know
Lily and I pretty much have this
locked up, you sure about that?
>> Devon: I mean, I guess
you'll just have to wait
and find out, won't you?
>> Billy: Hey, Nate.
>> Chelsea: Dr. Hammond,
please come in.
>> Hammond: Thank you.
I appreciate you letting me
come by.
>> Chelsea: Yeah, of course.
This is after hours for you,
isn't it?
>> Hammond: I was working late,
and this is on my way home.
>> Adam: Is there an issue?
Because we just saw him and
he was in great spirits.
>> Hammond: Yes, I'm aware.
>> Chelsea: Uh, it was a really
nice visit.
He was articulate and very
positive about his progress.
>> Hammond: Unfortunately,
that's exactly the problem.
>> Devon: God, Billy's such
a tool.
>> Nate: His default mode?
To be extremely pleased
with himself.
>> Devon: Oh, I just-- I can't--
I can't stand having
to deal with him anymore.
>> Nate: Then, his smarm
is working.
>> Devon: No, it's--
it's nothing
intentional about him.
It's just the way he is.
>> Nate: I don't know.
He's been taking it
to the next level.
Devon, he's pushing your
buttons, trying to get you riled
up so you'll want to cut ties
with Chancellor and not have
anything to do with him.
>> Devon: Then, you know what?
He'd be right.
He would be right.
I just don't like the fact that
he's clouding Lily's judgment.
'Cause can you believe that
she thought that I was trying to
trick her into admitting some
kind of betrayal?
>> Nate: You basically admitted
to her that's exactly
what you were doing,
so yeah, yeah, I can believe it.
I'd like to know
what's up with that.
>> Devon: That's not exactly
what I was doing. I--
I just know Lily, and I know
that Lily likes a challenge,
and I think that we have to at
least consider the fact that
she might actually be
intrigued by running
Abbott-Chancellor with Billy.
>> Nate: Or you're creating
a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Accusing your sister
of wanting to stay at Chancellor
and driving her to do just that.
>> Devon: All I've been doing is
asking questions and letting her
reveal her true colors to us.
>> Nate: I don't know
about that.
Look, I sat back and watched you
both go at it, and it didn't
sound like that to me.
>> Devon: Well,
what did it sound like to you?
>> Nate: That Lily wasn't wrong
to wonder if you're
the one pushing her away.
[ knocking on door ]
>> Chance: Hey, boss.
>> Lily: Hi.
>> Chance: You got a minute?
Or is this a bad time?
>> Lily: Um, uh, no.
Uh, come on in.
I could use a distraction.
It's been a... a lot going on.
>> Chance: Yeah, yeah,
so I hear.
I just got done talking
to Billy.
He brought me up to speed on
the whole divide
and conquer plan.
>> Lily: Right,
of course he did.
Uh, I mean,
he shouldn't have said anything.
Nothing is final right now.
>> Chance: Well, he made it seem
like it was basically
a done deal.
>> Lily: Well, we still have a--
a board vote to get through.
>> Chance: And with Billy having
his own vote plus Jill's...
Well, seems like
he got that in the bag.
>> Lily: Yeah, maybe.
Uh, what-- what is it
that you wanted?
>> Chance: Look, I just wanted
to come in here
and tell you that I am all in.
I am here to help whenever
you need me.
>> Lily: Well, thank you.
There's going to be a lot
to do if this all happens, uh...
>> Chance: Absolutely,
and this is not me kissing up
or anything, but I do look
forward to working
more closely with you.
Yeah, ever since you got back,
I've been thoroughly impressed
with how you've done things.
>> Lily: That sounds an awful
lot like kissing up.
[ both laughing ]
>> Chance: No, you, uh, you seem
to rise above the infighting,
and I think that is a big loss
for the Winters' side and a huge
gain for Abbott-Chancellor.
[ phone ringing ]
>> Billy: Hey, Mom.
It's good to see you.
You're looking good.
>> Jill: Yes, the doctors all
say I'm their star patient.
I am following their
protocols to a T.
>> Billy: You have no idea how
happy that makes me.
And thank you very much for
telling Chance about
what's going on with you.
>> Jill: Darling, I didn't want
you to have to carry that
secret all by yourself.
>> Billy: Yeah, it's nice to
have someone else to complain to
about how stubborn you are.
And you just let us know, okay?
When you're ready, we'll jump on
a plane and come and see you.
>> Jill: Oh, I will let
you know.
>> Billy: In the meantime,
Lily and I pitched Devon and
Nate. The board call is ready
to go. Abby's on a plane on her
way to Paris at the moment.
>> Jill: How very nice for her.
>> Billy: Yeah, not exactly.
It's personal reasons.
Ashley's going through some
health stuff as well.
>> Jill: Oh, I'm sorry
to hear that.
>> Billy: As soon as she lands,
we're ready.
We'll get things rolling.
>> Jill: Well, now, Billy,
that is actually why I called.
I'm having second thoughts.
>> Billy: What exactly is giving
you second thoughts, Mom?
When we talked about the plan,
you-- you said you liked it.
>> Jill: I did a deeper dive
into the post-merger numbers,
and it showed that combined,
our companies are very strong.
I mean, they're very profitable.
Are we sure we want to risk
splitting them up again?
>> Billy: I-- I think it's
a valid point, but with Lily and
me at the helm,
I assure you, this will be
a smooth transition.
>> Jill: Billy, you can't
protect against the questions
and the rumors.
>> Billy: Mom, look, this is
the only way to add the Abbott
name to the company, okay?
That alone is worth the risk.
>> Jill: Are you sure Lily is
totally on board?
I can't imagine that she'd be so
anxious to share her CEO status
with you, given your history.
>> Billy: Well, I think after
the way Devon reacted to the
idea of Lily sticking with
Chancellor, I think she's more
than ready to part ways
with him.
>> Chance: You know,
this company,
it means something to me, too.
>> Lily: I know.
I'm aware of your last name.
>> Chance: Yeah.
And, uh, you know, I don't like
to throw that around too much,
but ever since I started, I've
showed up, I've done my work.
I sucked it up and
sat at Billy's knee.
>> Lily: Yeah, basked in
the glow of his wisdom.
>> Chance: You know how
he can be.
>> Lily: I do.
And unfortunately, he is as
smart as he thinks he is.
>> Chance: It's really nice to
hear you say that.
>> Lily: Why is that?
>> Chance: Well, ever since
I started, there's been a lot of
jockeying for position here.
Whatever happens with this vote,
whatever happens with
Billy's plan, I really hope
things can settle down.
You know, I look forward to
everyone focusing on the work,
instead of who's going
to come out on top.
And I-- I guess that's
what I really wanted
to say to you.
>> Lily: Well, thank you.
Thank you for your honesty.
It's refreshing.
And I-- I know that you care
about Chancellor-Winters.
Or Abbott-Chancellor or whatever
it's going to be called.
>> Chance: Well, I'll,
uh, let you get back to it.
And it goes without saying,
I'll keep the demerger
under wraps until it's official.
>> Lily: Yes, thank you.
>> Neil: From now on,
we're going to leave our
personal feelings on the other
side of that door.
When we're in this office,
the company comes first.
I want this company to be
the gold standard of how
a family business should be run.
And I plan to set the example.
>> Lily: Yeah, well,
count me in, Dad.
I love your new vision,
and I can't wait to see
what we create together.
>> Neil: See that?
Listen to her.
That's what I'm talking about.
Thank you.
[ Lily exhaling ]
>> Chelsea: Did Connor say
he had a bad time? I mean--
>> Hammond: Connor had
a wonderful time with you both.
He came back to us
in high spirits.
He shared in his group session
how great it was to see you,
that you enjoyed a beautiful
day on the harbor,
he got to eat pizza.
>> Chelsea: Yeah, right.
So, what's the problem?
>> Hammond: That's when
his OCD flared.
It's actually common for OCD
to intrude when good things
happen to the patient.
>> Adam: What does that mean?
>> Hammond: It's like the OCD
rises up to tell the patient
they don't deserve
the happiness they're feeling.
We think this is what happened,
and it triggered a negative
response in Connor.
A punishment by the OCD,
if that makes sense.
>> Chelsea: None of this
makes sense.
>> Adam: Did he
hit himself again?
>> Hammond: It started with
the hitting.
Then he used a pen
and tried to cut his arm.
[ Chelsea gasping ]
Fortunately, one of the nurses
checked in on Connor and
saw what was happening before
he could break the skin.
>> Chelsea: Wait-- well, is he
okay? Can we go see him?
>> Hammond: That's why I wanted
to talk to you in person.
Since Connor did try
to hurt himself again,
we moved him to inpatient status
for his own protection.
>> Adam: I-- I know that you
said inpatient
was a possibility before,
but what does that really mean?
>> Hammond: We moved him to
another part of the hospital.
He can't leave the wing.
He's checked in on more often
than in the residential center,
and he won't see
his regular doctors.
>> Adam: Won't that upset him?
Won't that cause him
to backslide?
>> Chelsea: Yeah, won't-- won't
that undo, um, all the progress
he's been making?
>> Adam: I just-- I--
I don't get it.
How can his OCD still be
so disruptive when he seems like
he's doing so much better?
>> Hammond: I know it's hard
to understand, but
this is the OCD fighting back.
It is weakening.
And so it's hanging on for
dear life, doing anything
it can to regain control.
>> Chelsea: So how long would
he have to be in this
inpatient wing?
>> Hammond: It's hard to say.
It could be a few days,
or a couple of weeks.
[ Chelsea sighing ]
We'll be monitoring his
progress, reassessing
him on a daily basis.
>> Adam: Um, well, thank you for
coming in person
to tell us this.
>> Hammond: I know it's not
the news you wanted to hear,
especially after today, but
I thought it was better to hear
it this way than on the phone.
Do you have any other questions
for me?
>> Adam: Uh, probably,
but I think-- I think right now,
we both need to process this.
>> Hammond: I'll be in touch.
We'll keep you posted.
>> Adam: Mm-hmm.
[ Chelsea exhaling ]
Thank you.
That was not the news
I was hoping for.
[ Adam exhaling ]
>> Adam: I don't know what
to think.
Just when I thought that place
knew what they were doing.
Did they let us take him
too soon?
Are we not allowed to show him
a good time?
Are we never allowed to have fun
with him again, unless the OCD
wants to punish him?
Chelsea, say something.
Say anything.
Don't shut down right now.
>> Chelsea: What do you
want me to say?
>> Adam: I don't know.
Tell me to shut up.
Give me one of your pep talks.
I just-- I need to know
what you're thinking.
>> Chelsea: I don't know, Adam.
I'm just trying to hold on here,
so excuse me if taking
care of you right now
is not my priority.
>> Adam: That's not
what I meant.
>> Chelsea: Well, it sure
sounds like it.
Sounds like you want me to
pull you out of one
of your rage spirals,
and to be honest with you,
I don't have it in me right now.
>> Chelsea: Maybe
I need support.
We take turns, right?
Well, now it's my turn
to freak out.
>> Adam: Hey, okay.
I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have put that
on you.
Obviously, we are both reeling.
You know, it's like-- we had a
great day, and the news...
it's-- it's just, it's whiplash,
and the thought of him
hurting himself like that--
>> Chelsea: He attacked himself!
He attacked himself, Adam!
Our precious little boy took
a pen and tried to stab himself!
>> Adam: I know, I know.
It doesn't make any sense.
That's not who he is. I mean,
it's not who he's ever been.
>> Chelsea: Maybe it is. Wha--
Maybe this has been lingering
inside him all along,
and we just never saw it.
Maybe our son has been
struggling to keep these
thoughts and feelings at bay,
and we just never noticed,
because we've been too
focused on ourselves.
We've been thinking about our
own problems and our own issues,
and our son has been taking care
of himself all these years.
>> Adam: Don't think like that,
okay? This thinking
is not helpful.
>> Chelsea: Don't tell me how
to think! We should have thought
this way a long time ago,
and then none of this
would have been happening.
Maybe...
Maybe we're just two
really selfish people who
never put our son first.
>> Adam: That is not true,
and you know it.
>> Chelsea: Don't tell me
what's true.
I mean--
If this day has taught us
anything, it's that we don't
know anything.
You were about to
order champagne, Adam.
We-- we were celebrating,
and now look.
>> Adam: We should-- come on,
let's sit down. Sit down.
>> Chelsea: How is
this possible?
He was so happy just
a couple hours ago.
We were making jokes and
giving hugs and he...
He wanted to go on a boat.
>> Adam: It's okay.
>> Chelsea: It's not okay, Adam.
None of this is okay.
>> Adam: I know.
It's not right now,
but he's gonna be okay.
All right? And so are we.
We're gonna be okay.
>> Billy: So, what's with all
the sudden questions and doubts?
When we talked about this,
you were all for it.
>> Jill: I don't know.
Maybe it's this treatment
I've been going through.
I've been seeing things from
a different perspective.
>> Billy: But you did give me
your voting power.
So you do trust me, correct?
>> Jill: Yes.
>> Billy: Okay, so this is
the right call, Mom.
It's the right thing to do.
You gotta let me run with it.
>> Devon: Please, man,
don't start this.
Because that's-- that's not why
I questioned Lily.
And if you really believe that,
then maybe you need to stay
behind with her at Chancellor.
>> Nate: Hey, hey, I'm not
judging you. I'm just asking,
the same way you asked Lily.
If you want to run Winters
on your own, just say so.
>> Devon: I want to run my
family's company with my family.
>> Nate: Yeah. Want to
is one thing.
Listen.
You and Lily don't have to do
everything together just because
you're brother and sister.
And that's okay
for the both of you,
but you have to be honest
with each other,
because if you can't at least do
that, then you'll keep insisting
that it's Aunt Mamie or
Billy or Jill causing all
the trouble, when it's you
and Lily letting it happen.
So, I think you both need
to take a breath
before this vote happens.
And answer for yourselves
and each other:
what do you really want?
[ laptop ringing ]
>> Lily: Jill,
I'm surprised to hear from you.
It must be late in London.
>> Jill: Oh, I'm a big girl.
I can stay up as late as I want.
>> Lily: Of course, you can.
Um, what can I do for you?
>> Jill: Tell me that you're
really okay with this conscious
uncoupling plan for the company,
and that you're not gonna
regret it later.
>> Lily: Well, it sounds like
you're having second thoughts.
>> Jill: That is not an answer.
>> Lily: Well, neither is that.
I mean, I assume that you signed
off on Billy's plan.
Not that he needs you to, since
you've given him your proxy
to do with as he pleases.
>> Jill: Yeah, well,
this is a huge, huge decision,
and if Billy gets two votes,
I'm struggling to believe
that it's going to pave the way
for a smooth transition.
I may have to vote my own shares
on this one.
>> Lily: So, which way are
you planning to vote?
>> Jill: Ah, yes, that is
the million dollar question,
isn't it?
Because if we don't get this
right, we could lose
the company that we've
worked so hard to build.
