You always have looked beautiful
in white.
Adam.
Hi.
I, um, heard the news.
You and Billy.
You two are getting married.
Well, where are my son
and that punk?
What building?
On what business?
Well, then find out.
Hello, Victor.
♪♪
It was me.
I did that.
I did all of those things.
- Mitch? - Mitch? Oh, my God!
Matt, you're all right. You're okay.
All I ever do is lie.
MATT: You need to remember something right now, Nick.
This is my game. I call all the shots.
I make all of the rules.
You wanna see your son again,
remember that.
Noah's not dead yet.
You are the one who ran him off the road...
aren't you? Why?
What did Noah ever do to you?
Not a whole lot outside of sleeping with my wife.
Stop this, please. Please don't do this.
I'm not doing anything.
- He's gonna do it. - No, I'm not, Mitch.
Yes, you are. You...
are going to take those drugs
or I'm gonna kill Sienna.
You drew first blood.
[whimpers, gasps]
But I will draw the last.
You are a monster, Mitch.
Okay, stop with the Mitch garbage, okay?
Let's just--let's do this right now, okay?
Please allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Matt Clark.
That's so bad for you, Sienna.
Because I really am as dangerous as they all say.
You're a dead man, Nick Newman,
and when you are lying in the dirt
about to OD for the last time,
you know what I'm gonna do? I'm going after all of 'em!
I'm gonna get Sienna. I'm gonna get Noah.
I'm finally gonna be reunited
with my sweet, beautiful Sharon.
Aah! You?
What do you want? What are you doing here?
Sit down and shut up.
Aah! Aah!
[door opens]
Come on, open your eyes, Nick.
Come on, wake up!
Nick!
You can't be dead. Come on!
Nick!
You're so lucky to have each other,
to be able to look after each other.
Until one of you dies,
and the other one has to watch it happen.
And you're just chained there and you got no food
and you got no water,
not a damn thing you can do about it.
That's what's gonna happen.
[sobbing]
I'm s--I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so, so sorry.
- Hey. - No, Sienna, stay back.
No, no, no, no. He's falling apart.
I know him, Noah. This is real.
He's not gonna hurt me.
Hey, Matt?
- No, no, no, no. - No, no, look at me.
- Look at me. - You really shouldn't, Sienna.
- Don't--don't, okay? No! - You need to take a breath
- so you can calm down. - Nobody can be around me.
You shouldn't be around me.
It's not safe. I'm not safe.
- What is happening? - He's seeing it.
He's feeling it, everything he did.
NICK: You think it's a show?
I would have thought that if his memories came back,
his instinct, it would all come back with him,
all--everything-- the darkness.
Whatever it is, I don't know what came back.
Matt, you're not gonna hurt anyone, not here.
How can you say that? You don't know that.
I don't know that.
I wanted you dead.
I wanted to kill you.
So many--so many things that I...
that I'd--I...
so many horrible,
awful things.
I don't--I don't-- I don't want that.
I don't want that!
I don't wanna see that. I don't wanna feel that.
Because you're right, and it's real! It's real.
And it's--it-- it's way worsethan you think!
[softly] Okay.
You're okay. Okay. You know what?
Look at me. Look at me.
Just look at me right here. Look at me. You're okay.
All right? So tell me something.
You wanna hurt anyone? You wanna hurt anyone right now?
- No. I don't. - No.
- But I did. - Okay.
I really liked it.
I-I-I gotta go. I can't be here.
- No, you're not-- - Okay. Look. Okay.
Breathe.
You're not going anywhere.
[moans]
It's true.
Yeah. Billy and I are getting married.
Um, I-I wish you every happiness.
Truly.
Because you deserve nothing less.
But I can't get that from Billy?
I did not say that.
It's true, but I did not say that.
You think I'm a fool?
No. Never.
Too loving, too caring,
too open, probably, but never a fool, Sally.
You're savvy as hell.
But you also see the good in people,
no matter how limited.
So you're not gonna tell me I'm making a mistake?
People have to make their own call.
Might not be what I would do.
I mean, I would never marry Billy.
- Shocking. - But seriously, Sally.
If anyone's owed happiness, something to celebrate,
it's you.
I hope so.
Billy, uh, also mentioned you're having a baby.
[ahem] I went by Sharon's to see if Nick was there.
He wasn't there. Um...
- I see. - Yeah. I went by his place,
and, uh, I just wanted to see-- maybe he was resting.
I was worried that the ER, uh, released him too soon.
I just wanted to make sure he was okay.
He wasn't at his place either.
- No, he wasn't. - I assume he's not...
- he's not here. - No, he's not back.
Okay.
All right, so, um, I should just, um, it--
It doesn't--I should go.
- Um, maybe--maybe--you could-- - Phyllis.
Phyllis.
Let's you and I have a talk, okay?
Come on in.
I-I can't be here.
Look, I hate me too. I really do,
and whatever you're gonna say to me, I'm okay with it.
Whatever you're gonna do, I'm fine with it,
but it can't be here. It's gotta be out there.
- No, no, you don't touch him! - I'm so sorry! I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
I don't wanna die.
I don't. I don't wanna die.
Not like this.
There's gotta be something I can do to wash...
all of this off of me.
I-I know there's some way to do that.
I can feel that in my skin. I can feel that in my bones.
Please.
Give me a chance to try and make it up to you.
My whole life...
...it can't end without me doing...
at least...one thing right.
[sobbing]
Yeah, that couldn't have felt good,
hearing it from Billy.
Probably should have come from me.
Here.
Well, you know, I saw the groom first,
so lucky me.
He was as classy as you would imagine.
You didn't engage at all, I'm sure.
Look, not to put too fine a point on it,
but he will never be worthy of you.
He will never deserve you. And he knows how I feel.
So do you.
Then you kept it short and sweet, I hope?
Are you worried that he was a jerk
and he rubbed your news in my face and I would be upset?
No, and certainly not about the upset part.
I mean, you're in a committed relationship.
- Very much so. - Yeah.
And we haven't been together for a really long time.
So there's no reason to worry about my reaction.
Although Billy was gloating about the engagement, full on.
But he was trying not to be a heartless bastard
about the pregnancy, so he scored one for humanity.
Wow. You two certainly bring out the worst in each other.
But...
I mean, the baby...
Billy's already in love.
I know the feeling.
I appreciate you being decent, Adam.
Baby's a big deal.
Yeah. Brings up a lot of really big feelings.
You're being generous, truly.
But...
how do you really feel?
So how is Nick doing physically, mentally?
- Both. - Thank you for asking,
but he's doing better physically.
And mentally?
We will help him get better in that regard as well.
How did this happen?
Yeah, how did this happen? Well...
You know when Nicholas was in the car crash with Matt Clark
and suffered such pain that he eventually ran out of meds
and then... Matt Clark gave him fentanyl.
Why'd he give him fentanyl?
Well, that was Matt Clark's business.
You didn't know that?
No. I mean, I knew he was in LA and he ran a club.
- Right? - Yeah, well...
Nicholas must have told you something about that.
I knew about everything
that Matt did in the past, definitely.
I knew about that.
And then the last few months, all the horrible things.
But I didn't know that he was giving him drugs.
I-I never knew that.
And then what happened last night...
And yet, that same Matt Clark
saved his life.
He almost died.
- Yeah. - You must have been terrified.
I shall never forget it.
Never.
I-I gotta get outta here. I can't breathe.
- I gotta get out of here. - Okay, no, no, no, no. Sit down.
- You're okay. Just sit down. - No, I'm notokay. How can you--
[softly] Nick, we need to call the police!
NICK: And say what?
We got a guy here having a panic attack.
Come help us with him?
We'll call Detective Burrow. He'll know what to do.
Burrow can't do anything.
There aren't any charges that are gonna stick.
- Not here, but in Vegas. - Okay, we take him back
to Vegas--what happens? He goes on trial.
Then we all have to take the stand.
Think about everything that's happened.
That all becomes public. If we don't testify,
that case gets dropped.
Why are you arguing with everything I suggest?
Please, let's just take a moment and talk this through.
We have been talking about this for days.
Well, we haven't covered all the bases.
What about the Feds?
The Feds want him on drug charges.
MATT: How many?
W-what do you think the number is?
How many people do you think I've hurt?
Just...ballpark.
He is useless to us now.
Let's go. We're leaving.
Get up.
What are you gonna do?
I don't know. Noah, stay here with your mother and Sienna.
Do not follow me. [snaps] Let's go.
Oh!
Okay, well, that was--
[exhales]
Oh, my God.
How much more damage has to happen before this ends?
VICTOR: I'll never forget what happened that night,
seeing my son like that.
It's an image I'm trying to get out of my head,
but I can't, you know?
Neither can I.
But I want to thank you
because of everything you did
to save Nicholas.
It wasn't just me, Victor.
It was Matt too.
- I know. - I froze.
I just froze.
You know? Only for a little bit.
I didn't know about the drugs. I didn't know.
I-I didn't... know how bad he was.
I just couldn't see it.
And Matt called me over and I looked at Sharon.
I-I remember that I gave her CPR in that cell.
I saved her life.
So I just started doing that, you know?
I just...started,
and Matt was doing his thing, and...
He didn't have to do that, but he did it.
Yep. Well...
I want to thank you for it. I will, uh...
never forget it.
I wanna thank you...
from the bottom of my heart.
I love your son.
I love him.
He's the father of my child.
And he's a good man.
Yeah. He's a good man.
My children are my heart, you know.
I know.
Well, uh, I gotta go.
Uh, when you-- when you, um, talk to Nick,
can you just tell him that I wanna see him? I just...
[tearfully] I wanna see his face.
I'll let him know.
[ahem] Thank you.
Phyllis.
Thank you for coming by.
Thank you.
Sit down.
[sobbing]
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry, Nick.
Just--
- I'm sorry. - Hey!
Stop. Just--
Just calm down.
I'll be back.
How do I feel about what?
You know what, Adam.
Does it matter?
To me, yeah.
Like you said, it was--
it's been a long time since we've been over.
Adam, that's not what I'm talking about, and you know it.
The baby.
We lost Ava.
And I'm pregnant, and I've had time to process it
and to talk about it, and I'm sure you wanna talk about it.
And I'm right here now.
I'm sad.
- Oh. - I mean, not that
you're pregnant.
I'm sad because Ava is not here.
And that's not fair to you, because it's making it about me.
No. You told me because I asked you.
And I get it, I do. I understand.
I mean, I was really scared when I first found out,
and guilty.
'Cause I felt like it was a betrayal somehow.
No, no, never-- no, never think that.
I mean, this is a gift.
And, I mean, you're allowed to be excited.
I am.
I mean, now I am.
You know? But I know that Ava's always...
She's always gonna be with me.
I miss her.
So do I.
At least I can see her in my dreams.
You do? You see Ava in your dreams?
How is she?
Hey, Dad.
Hey, son.
By the way, you just missed Phyllis.
She wanted to reach you.
Yeah, that's gonna have to wait.
I got Matt downstairs in the gym.
What happened?
Did you know that, uh, Noah built a Shadow Room
out here in Genoa City?
What do you mean, he built a Shadow Room?
Who gave him permission to do that? For what?
I don't know, Dad. He did it. But...
he thought if we took Matt to it,
it might shake some of his memories, you know,
and see if this amnesia was real.
Did it work?
He definitely remembered some stuff, and it absolutely...
fried his brain.
- Do you think he was faking it? - I don't.
It seemed pretty real.
I don't know how you fake something like that.
Huh. So what are you thinking?
I mean, he got his memory back.
But the rest of it, the rest of him, I don't know.
I've wanted nothing more
than to get this guy out of our lives forever.
But what if he's already gone, Dad?
How is Ava?
In your dreams. Does she seem...
is she happy?
She's so beautiful, Adam.
What does she look like?
I mean, the Ava in my dreams is more like a feeling.
You know? It's this glow of love.
Her eyes, her smile, her hair.
It shifts, it changes, and, I mean,
sometimes, obviously, I forget when I wake up, but...
My most recent dream of Ava,
we were at the beach.
And the ocean washed away her sand castle.
[both chuckle]
I mean, we just jumped in the waves, and it was...
it was warm and soft and...
safe.
Then I just...
watched her play in the water.
On her own? She wasn't holding your hand?
No. She let go of it.
There was someone else there with her.
Was it me?
I mean, I didn't see,but...
like with Ava, there was a feeling.
You had her, Adam.
She was safe because of you.
Well, you're not arguing with me.
You think Matt might be different too?
Son, the man I saw last night saved your life.
Yeah, I know. Things went black.
Then I went down.
When I woke up, everyone's standing over me.
Then they haul me off to the ER,
and I find out later the only reason I'm still alive
- is because of Matt. - Well, Matt Clark
didn't know who he was at that moment.
Well, he's got his memories back.
But he hasn't gone dark yet.
- You think he might? - Just leave him to me, okay?
And walk away from this? No. That's not happening.
Son, that is what concerns me.
Dad, don't start.
- You need treatment, Nicholas. - I know.
And we agreed-- Matt first, then treatment.
No. I will not stand by, watch you black out and drop.
We thought you were dead, boy!
Matt Clark saved your life. So did Phyllis.
You know how you scared this whole family?
We're not gonna go through that again.
Leave him to me!
Okay. Then what is the plan?
I don't know yet.
I will observe Matt Clark and see what those memories trigger.
I was saving this for opening night.
None for me, thanks.
Uh-huh.
Well...
it really is surreal being here.
I mean, without the outside view, it really could be LA.
Yeah. Bringing Matt here seemed like a good idea
at the time.
It was.
Did you see what I saw?
You had no way of knowing
the effect that all of this would have on Matt,
that he would find it all so overwhelming.
I expected to see Matt. I expected a maniac.
Yeah, well, that was not Matt or even Mitch.
I never even met who that person was.
Matt always got so much pleasure
out of other people's pain...
seeing the fear in his victims' eyes,
ever since he was a teenager.
That kind of cruelty and callousness...
and none of it was there.
Yeah.
The monster's turned into a man.
I call all the shots. I make all of the rules.
- Sit down and shut up! - Aah!
You are going to take those drugs,
or I'm gonna kill Sienna.
Because I really am as dangerous as they all say.
You're a dead man, Nick Newman.
You're so lucky to have each other,
to be able to look after each other.
Until one of you dies,
and the other one has to watch it happen.
You're such a monster.
[gasps]
Please, just make it stop. Please. Please, no more.
No more.
When you have dreams of Ava like that and you wake up...
- Does it break my heart? - Yeah. 'Cause she's gone
all over again?
It's strange, but no.
I mean, yeah, I miss her all over again,
but I feel like, I mean...
it makes me feel like she's with me.
She's part of me.
And I feel...
I really don't know how to put this feeling into words,
but I...
I really feel like we did our best.
And for whatever reason, she just...
couldn't be with us, but...
we did our best.
When you found out you were, uh, pregnant...
- Was I terrified? - Yeah.
Yes, I was. Very much so.
But Billy...
and Audra, they've both been amazing, and...
I really do not wanna let fear
get in the way of me and this baby.
Parenting is not for the weak, that's for sure.
But you're brave, Sally.
You're gonna give this kid the world.
Oh, my God.
- I know. - Oh, my God.
[whispering] I was so scared.
- I was too. - Oh, my God.
Don't ever...
- I won't. - Don't ever--no, swear!
- Swear! - I swear.
Thank you.
Thank me? Shut up.
- No. - Shut up.
Thank you for saving my life.
And for, you know, turning over Matt.
I know you did the second thing for yourself.
No, no. I did all of this for myself.
Listen.
I knew something was off. I knew something was so off,
and I could see it.
You said that Matt got you addicted to fentanyl?
Look, it's, uh, it's a perfect storm of...
Look, don't worry about it.
The point is I'm gonna get through it.
Yeah.
You will. You have to.
- I will. - Yeah.
Listen.
I'd really prefer it if you didn't tell Summer about this.
I'm not gonna tell Summer.
You do that in your own time, okay?
I'm gonna do that. Once the situation's resolved.
All right.
You're gonna go to rehab, right?
What--what's going on with Matt?
Did you turn him over?
I mean, is that what Christine's doing right now?
Or is that just something you told me
so that I would turn him over?
Okay. That's-- that's a lot of questions.
Now I have one more for you. Am I going to prison?
What we witnessed with Matt was jarring.
It goes against everything we know about the man.
Just as Sienna said,
that's unlike anything she's ever seen with Mitch.
Yeah, I mean, even in the beginning
when I fell for him, when things were good...
Pfft. He was never like that.
He was never raw
and vulnerable or remorseful.
I--[huffs] I've never seen that person.
I would imagine not.
But that remorse, even if it is sincere,
it doesn't mean that we have to wipe away
all of our own feelings about what he's done to us.
Okay. But I don't get it.
I don't understand.
I mean, that Matt that all of you know,
the one who tormented you...
I mean, even the Mitch, the cruel Mitch
that I--that I got to know, I mean...
You know, we all adjust our behavior
based on our surroundings, our companions.
But that...I don't know.
SIENNA: Yeah...
No, Mitch was always a cynic.
Ha. You know, his smile, it was always too sharp.
It was like...like he was laughing at you
or judging you.
And, like I said, I found it funny
at first, in the beginning.
I don't know, maybe compelling, but...
then I realized...
That kind of cruelty runs deep.
Yeah. So why's it gone?
NOAH: Is it gone?
Or will it return? I mean, that's what we need to know.
Is he changed forever,
or will the man who tried to kill us come raging back?
I'm guessing that you've heard that my memory is back.
It's true.
I did everything they say that I did.
I did all of those things.
And maybe some other really sick things
that haven't come back to me yet--I don't know.
I'm a vicious human being.
And, uh, it makes sense
what went down between us the last time I was here
alone with you. I get it.
You know, you saved my son's life last night.
Which doesn't wipe away all the stuff that you have done
to hurt my family.
I-I know.
You know, before I walked into that club,
I thought I was this guy...
like just a man who had a soul and didn't have any memories.
And now I have all of my memories back,
but I'm not so sure I ever had a soul.
A man with a soul wouldn't do the things that I've done.
I see you looking at me...
and I'm sure you're thinking what part of me is thinking,
that there's just no way back from something like this.
There's no way a man like me could ever be redeemed.
This kid has no idea what he or she is in for.
I know all of the tricks,
so they're not gonna be able to get away with anything.
[laughs] Okay. Yeah, you say that now.
Oh, what, I should probably knock on wood or something?
It won't even matter.
Because reality is gonna set in...no matter what.
Connor's like a full-blown teen now, isn't he?
Whew. And it is...
fantastic.
I mean, we're always aware of what he's up against
and alert, but yeah, he's a full-on teen.
I'm glad.
Me too.
You're a really good dad, Adam.
And I don't just mean with Connor.
Even in my dreams, you're the dad that Ava deserved.
You don't have to say that.
Why not? It's the truth, Adam.
I'm not talking about you and me.
I'm talking about you and Ava.
And honestly, I'm also talking about me and...
[sighs] this little one.
I really...
I really wanna be the mom
that this baby deserves.
Sally, you already are.
I'm really happy for you.
And for your baby.
You two are gonna be amazing together.
Thank you.
All right.
SALLY: Bye.
What do you think Dad is doing right now?
Should I have followed him anyway?
Why is he...why is he like that?
He's just so stubborn, as if only he can deal with Matt.
I don't know what Nick is doing. I don't.
And that doesn't worry you?
Well, no one's going to get hurt.
At least not right now.
With the condition Matt's in, and Nick--
what he saw here threw him just as much.
He's not gonna take the law into his own hands.
Yeah, but will he hand him over to the cops?
I think so. I hope so.
Okay, and then what? What's next?
Prison, a trial? What?
SHARON: Well, both the Vegas police and the Feds
know what he's done, so yeah,
I think there's a good chance he's going to go to prison.
Okay, but--
but the man that he is now, that--that man is broken.
He's shattered.
You really think he's gonna be able to survive
being punished for his past?
So tell me something.
You think you oughta be punished for your crimes?
I'll tell you what I told the others.
Please have a seat.
I want the world to be a better place,
and I don't think the world can be a good place
until I'm not in it, so, yeah.
I shoulda been gone a long time ago.
You really think so?
I don't get it, man. I don't understand.
I know that it was me.
I know I did all of the things.
But what I don't understand...
is the thought, the feeling that I had
while I was doing them, this voice that said,
"There's a thing you know you shouldn't do.
Don't do that."
And I do it anyway.
I don't get that.
And I don't know if that's gone, you know?
I mean, I want it to be gone.
I don't want that to come back.
But you have free will. No one controls you.
I know that. I know. And it's who I was,
but it doesn't needto be who I am moving forward.
- For how long? - I would do myself in
before I ever went back to being that guy.
And you expect me to take your word for it?
Let me live, and I'll prove it to you.
So now you're bargaining for your life?
Please.
I don't wanna hurt you.
I don't wanna hurt your family. I don't wanna hurt anybody.
I don't want to be that person.
Let me make it up to you.
Let me make it up to all of you. Please.
Just tell me what to do... and I'll do it.
There are pending charges against Matt Clark.
Drug trafficking and kidnapping.
He may not have known that.
But then he went on the run from the law,
came to Genoa City...
and then you were harboring a fugitive.
Well [laughs] I mean...
n-no, I wasn't harboring him.
He didn't even know his name when I met him.
Yeah, but then he did. And then you did.
Well, now you'reharboring a fugitive.
- Not me. - No.
We never put him up in a hotel room
and paid the bill for that.
A-are you kidding me right now?
- Seriously? - You still have our company,
Phyllis, and that's gonna change.
Why...are you acting this way?
[scoffs] What--what happened?
You gave me your word
that if--if I...
I gave you Matt Clark,
then--then you would drop the charges against me
and I would keep my company.
Yeah, well, this is where things are right now.
I will tell Las Vegas PD
that you were knowingly committing a crime
by hiding Matt Clark.
Oh, my God, are you kidding me right now?
I saved your life.
[crying]
I saved your life!
Wh-what's happening?
Why are you talking to me like this?
Who are you?
