1
00:00:08,475 --> 00:00:10,410
You didn't come all this way
2
00:00:10,511 --> 00:00:12,412
to watch me troubleshoot
menu issues.
3
00:00:12,513 --> 00:00:14,381
I love it. It's a bonus
4
00:00:14,481 --> 00:00:17,251
watching my brilliant daughter
troubleshoot,
5
00:00:17,351 --> 00:00:19,520
watch you in action.
It's amazing.
6
00:00:19,620 --> 00:00:22,789
Thank you.
So how is Uncle Jack doing
7
00:00:22,890 --> 00:00:24,791
now that he's home from
the hospital?
8
00:00:24,892 --> 00:00:26,693
[sighs] Can you believe
that woman?
9
00:00:26,793 --> 00:00:28,962
I mean, how many times
has she put my brother
10
00:00:29,062 --> 00:00:31,598
-in the emergency room?
-It's over now. Done.
11
00:00:31,698 --> 00:00:33,600
Is it? Is anything really over
12
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:35,335
where Patty Williams
is concerned?
13
00:00:35,435 --> 00:00:38,171
Because her obsession
knows no bounds.
14
00:00:39,706 --> 00:00:42,376
No, it's great. It's the best
and smartest move
15
00:00:42,476 --> 00:00:45,345
selling the Newman Media
components back to Adam.
16
00:00:45,445 --> 00:00:48,282
I'm in. But...
17
00:00:48,382 --> 00:00:50,484
No! No "but."
There are no "buts."
18
00:00:50,584 --> 00:00:54,488
You still need to talk to Billy
about pawning his gift
19
00:00:54,588 --> 00:00:55,956
back to his sworn enemy.
20
00:00:56,056 --> 00:00:57,824
Not in those words.
21
00:00:57,925 --> 00:00:59,459
Okay, well,
what words do you think
22
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,061
won't piss Billy off?
23
00:01:01,161 --> 00:01:03,096
I don't know, but I have time
to think about it
24
00:01:03,196 --> 00:01:05,332
because he's gonna be in London
for a while with Jill
25
00:01:05,432 --> 00:01:07,067
and then when he gets back,
26
00:01:07,167 --> 00:01:08,835
he'll be calm and serene,
hopefully,
27
00:01:08,936 --> 00:01:11,171
and they'll have put most of
their issues to bed
28
00:01:11,271 --> 00:01:13,240
and it will be the perfect time.
29
00:01:13,340 --> 00:01:15,242
[door opens, closes]
30
00:01:15,342 --> 00:01:17,377
No! No, that's not--
31
00:01:17,477 --> 00:01:18,712
What's not what?
32
00:01:18,812 --> 00:01:21,748
I gotta go.
I gotta call you back.
33
00:01:22,683 --> 00:01:24,051
Hey!
34
00:01:24,151 --> 00:01:26,019
What happened?
35
00:01:26,119 --> 00:01:28,455
What happened? Um...
Hmm. Not a lot.
36
00:01:28,555 --> 00:01:30,657
But Jill and I fought
the entire flight to London,
37
00:01:30,757 --> 00:01:33,126
so after about eight hours,
I figured that was enough.
38
00:01:33,226 --> 00:01:34,461
I came home, so here I am.
39
00:01:34,561 --> 00:01:35,963
What'd you fight about?
40
00:01:36,063 --> 00:01:37,831
The son she wishes she had,
41
00:01:37,931 --> 00:01:39,733
the one and only Cane Ashby.
42
00:01:39,833 --> 00:01:43,103
Even though he's a fraud and
a liar and raised by a criminal,
43
00:01:43,203 --> 00:01:45,272
he'll always be more than
I will ever be.
44
00:01:45,372 --> 00:01:47,374
With every word, every syllable,
she made it very clear
45
00:01:47,474 --> 00:01:50,577
that I will always walk
in that guy's shadow.
46
00:01:52,613 --> 00:01:57,584
♪♪
47
00:02:34,054 --> 00:02:35,589
What's up, Devon?
48
00:02:36,757 --> 00:02:39,459
How was the trip?
Lily said you just got back.
49
00:02:39,559 --> 00:02:41,428
Did she?
50
00:02:41,528 --> 00:02:43,163
And you just had to let me know
51
00:02:43,263 --> 00:02:44,898
you've been spending time
with Lily, right?
52
00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:46,533
Just trying to make
conversation.
53
00:02:46,633 --> 00:02:48,168
I wouldn't read too much
into it.
54
00:02:48,268 --> 00:02:49,936
Sure.
You wanna have a conversation?
55
00:02:50,037 --> 00:02:51,772
I know what we can talk about.
56
00:02:51,872 --> 00:02:54,808
You convinced Lily
to bring you in to Chancellor,
57
00:02:54,908 --> 00:02:58,412
and I hear that
you're making hires.
58
00:02:58,512 --> 00:03:02,249
You're bringing on Billy
and Holden. Is that right?
59
00:03:02,349 --> 00:03:04,017
Moves that Lily approved.
60
00:03:04,117 --> 00:03:06,720
It's not bad enough that you're
running my grandmother's company
61
00:03:06,820 --> 00:03:09,489
but now you're gonna load it up
with even more half-assed losers
62
00:03:09,589 --> 00:03:11,658
like yourself
that nobody trusts?
63
00:03:11,758 --> 00:03:13,193
I mean, come on.
64
00:03:13,293 --> 00:03:16,463
When's this clown show of yours
gonna end, Cane?
65
00:03:18,398 --> 00:03:20,600
-Right. Billy--
-No. I know, I know.
66
00:03:20,701 --> 00:03:21,735
You're gonna tell me
that I'm wrong
67
00:03:21,835 --> 00:03:23,203
and that Jill would never
pick Cane over me,
68
00:03:23,303 --> 00:03:24,404
but she would.
69
00:03:24,504 --> 00:03:26,606
She does.
She has for over 20 years.
70
00:03:26,707 --> 00:03:29,643
Is that what she said,
or is that what you heard?
71
00:03:29,743 --> 00:03:32,446
It's always there
in the subtext.
72
00:03:32,546 --> 00:03:35,115
Chiseling away at my ego,
my psyche, everything.
73
00:03:35,215 --> 00:03:37,384
Okay, so it sounds like
that's not what she said.
74
00:03:37,484 --> 00:03:39,686
Can you tell me
what she actually did say?
75
00:03:40,921 --> 00:03:42,723
Okay, she started with
Chancellor
76
00:03:42,823 --> 00:03:45,892
and she said that I should never
be a part of anything Chancellor
77
00:03:45,992 --> 00:03:47,894
and that I should just
start something on my own
78
00:03:47,994 --> 00:03:49,930
so I don't butt heads
with anybody.
79
00:03:50,030 --> 00:03:52,099
That's not the craziest thought.
80
00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:54,034
And then she went on and on
about how brilliant Cane is
81
00:03:54,134 --> 00:03:55,736
and how great he'll be for
Chancellor
82
00:03:55,836 --> 00:03:57,738
and how he and Lily
are getting along so well
83
00:03:57,838 --> 00:03:59,573
and how Lily brings out
the best in him
84
00:03:59,673 --> 00:04:01,241
-and blah, blah, blah, blah.
-I mean,
85
00:04:01,341 --> 00:04:03,543
that does sound like, you know,
86
00:04:03,643 --> 00:04:05,812
that's true,
and I know that it stings
87
00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:08,548
'cause you used to run
Chancellor with Lily, but...
88
00:04:08,648 --> 00:04:10,817
I mean, are you sure
she meant it as a jab?
89
00:04:10,917 --> 00:04:13,320
There's something more.
90
00:04:13,420 --> 00:04:15,789
It was a little bizarre.
91
00:04:15,889 --> 00:04:17,324
What do you mean?
92
00:04:17,424 --> 00:04:19,292
We were fighting
and she got worked up
93
00:04:19,392 --> 00:04:22,062
because I wasn't just accepting
what she was saying as right.
94
00:04:22,162 --> 00:04:24,498
And she blurted out that...
95
00:04:24,598 --> 00:04:27,868
Cane should be the only one
to deal with the complexities
96
00:04:27,968 --> 00:04:30,103
inside Chancellor.
97
00:04:31,538 --> 00:04:33,373
-I don't understand.
-Exactly.
98
00:04:33,473 --> 00:04:35,809
She doesn't want anyone
to understand.
99
00:04:35,909 --> 00:04:38,912
There's something there.
There's something big.
100
00:04:39,012 --> 00:04:40,614
There's a secret
inside Chancellor,
101
00:04:40,714 --> 00:04:44,818
and Jill is terrified that I'm
gonna figure out what it is.
102
00:04:52,159 --> 00:04:54,394
I'm just so grateful
that our family is okay
103
00:04:54,494 --> 00:04:57,397
and that Patty Williams
is behind bars awaiting trial
104
00:04:57,497 --> 00:05:00,200
and she can't hurt us
ever again.
105
00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:03,537
You know what does make me
furious?
106
00:05:03,637 --> 00:05:06,573
Patty and Martin. I mean...
107
00:05:06,673 --> 00:05:08,708
they don't seem to want
to get well.
108
00:05:08,809 --> 00:05:11,211
It's almost as if they enjoy
their mental illness.
109
00:05:11,311 --> 00:05:13,814
And I'm not comparing myself to
either one of them, believe me,
110
00:05:13,914 --> 00:05:16,616
but I am working so hard
at getting better
111
00:05:16,716 --> 00:05:19,186
and getting healthy
and making sure that nobody
112
00:05:19,286 --> 00:05:21,621
gets hurt in the process.
113
00:05:21,721 --> 00:05:24,024
I'm so proud of you.
114
00:05:24,124 --> 00:05:26,259
I know that you've been
working so hard.
115
00:05:26,359 --> 00:05:28,495
I'm not gonna lie
and say it's been easy.
116
00:05:29,930 --> 00:05:31,965
I'm getting it done.
117
00:05:32,065 --> 00:05:33,700
Is there something else
that happened,
118
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,302
something that
you haven't told me about?
119
00:05:35,402 --> 00:05:37,337
No. I was walking around
Paris one day
120
00:05:37,437 --> 00:05:40,774
and I ended up at a café
that I used to go to with Alan.
121
00:05:40,874 --> 00:05:43,276
And I realized that
the last time I was there
122
00:05:43,376 --> 00:05:47,981
I was actually with Martin,
who was pretending to be Alan,
123
00:05:48,081 --> 00:05:50,483
and he's such a horrible
human being,
124
00:05:50,584 --> 00:05:53,386
I mean, how much he enjoyed
deceiving me.
125
00:05:53,486 --> 00:05:57,390
Ugh. Another person
who deserves to be behind bars
126
00:05:57,490 --> 00:06:00,126
and that can never hurt
anyone ever again.
127
00:06:00,227 --> 00:06:02,095
Why are we talking about
these horrible people?
128
00:06:02,195 --> 00:06:05,432
I'm here to enjoy my daughter
and her beautiful family.
129
00:06:05,532 --> 00:06:08,235
You know
the flowers in your room?
130
00:06:08,335 --> 00:06:10,070
-Dominic picked those himself.
-Oh, I know!
131
00:06:10,170 --> 00:06:13,006
Believe me, I know. He explained
every single one of them to me
132
00:06:13,106 --> 00:06:15,508
-in great detail.
-Oh, well, that kid can talk.
133
00:06:15,609 --> 00:06:18,178
Yeah, I wonder where
he gets that from.
134
00:06:19,679 --> 00:06:22,015
I hope you never stop
talking to me.
135
00:06:24,451 --> 00:06:26,586
Mom, I-I...
136
00:06:26,686 --> 00:06:30,390
I need some advice about Devon.
137
00:06:31,758 --> 00:06:33,927
I'm really worried about him.
138
00:06:34,027 --> 00:06:35,762
CANE: You really wanna
do this, Devon,
139
00:06:35,862 --> 00:06:37,831
go off on me like this
in public?
140
00:06:37,931 --> 00:06:39,766
I mean, I'm fine with it.
Have at it if you want.
141
00:06:39,866 --> 00:06:41,768
But you think these nice people
wanna hear all about it?
142
00:06:41,868 --> 00:06:43,536
I wouldn't be saying anything
143
00:06:43,637 --> 00:06:46,406
that people in this town didn't
already know about you, Cane.
144
00:06:46,506 --> 00:06:48,408
You're an opportunist,
145
00:06:48,508 --> 00:06:50,477
[loudly] and you only do things
for yourself.
146
00:06:50,577 --> 00:06:53,446
Everybody knows.
Which makes me ask the question
147
00:06:53,546 --> 00:06:55,315
why are you making
these hires for Chancellor?
148
00:06:55,415 --> 00:06:58,485
Is it to suck up to Jill
or to try and impress Lily?
149
00:06:58,585 --> 00:07:01,488
'Cause it's clearly
not for Katherine's benefit.
150
00:07:01,588 --> 00:07:04,024
So what do you want, then,
Devon?
151
00:07:04,124 --> 00:07:07,060
Hmm? You want Chancellor?
You wanna call the shots?
152
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:08,828
'Cause it's Lily's company,
not yours.
153
00:07:08,929 --> 00:07:10,497
I'm aware of that.
This isn't about me.
154
00:07:10,597 --> 00:07:12,299
Well, it seems like
you're making it about you.
155
00:07:12,399 --> 00:07:13,867
You're making it about
your hate for me
156
00:07:13,967 --> 00:07:15,435
and your dislike
of Lily's decisions.
157
00:07:15,535 --> 00:07:16,903
No, just this decision.
158
00:07:17,003 --> 00:07:18,638
Just this decision's
what I'm talking about,
159
00:07:18,738 --> 00:07:21,274
because it's the wrong one.
You ruin everything you touch,
160
00:07:21,374 --> 00:07:22,809
and this isn't gonna be
any different.
161
00:07:22,909 --> 00:07:24,544
So what do you think,
I wanna ruin the company
162
00:07:24,644 --> 00:07:25,946
that Lily's trusted me to lead?
163
00:07:26,046 --> 00:07:28,048
No, I don't think you want to.
Of course not.
164
00:07:28,148 --> 00:07:30,183
I think you're not gonna
be able to help yourself.
165
00:07:30,283 --> 00:07:32,319
Your track record in business
has been a disaster
166
00:07:32,419 --> 00:07:35,121
up until recently, and any
success you had as Dumas--
167
00:07:35,221 --> 00:07:37,190
that all blew up,
which is why you took a handout
168
00:07:37,290 --> 00:07:39,225
-from your ex-wife.
-Well, the only person
169
00:07:39,326 --> 00:07:40,927
that's gonna blow things up,
Devon, is you.
170
00:07:41,027 --> 00:07:42,829
If you keep on this rampage
that you're on,
171
00:07:42,929 --> 00:07:44,698
you're gonna ruin
your relationship with Lily.
172
00:07:44,798 --> 00:07:46,967
Is my rampage
me trying to protect my sister
173
00:07:47,067 --> 00:07:49,202
and my grandmother's company
from you?
174
00:07:49,302 --> 00:07:51,738
Well, Katherine left me
Chancellor when she died.
175
00:07:51,838 --> 00:07:53,807
I know that. And you didn't
deserve it then either.
176
00:07:53,907 --> 00:07:55,976
Right. So then it's not about
Katherine's legacy
177
00:07:56,076 --> 00:07:58,678
or her wishes
or Lily's decisions.
178
00:07:58,778 --> 00:08:01,014
It's about you
and what you want.
179
00:08:01,114 --> 00:08:02,849
That's not it either.
You're wrong again.
180
00:08:02,949 --> 00:08:06,319
This is about me being able
to see you clearly, Cane.
181
00:08:06,419 --> 00:08:08,588
All right? I can see you
as clear as day,
182
00:08:08,688 --> 00:08:10,490
and I have since day one.
183
00:08:10,590 --> 00:08:13,326
And the same goes for Billy,
same goes for Holden, all right?
184
00:08:13,426 --> 00:08:16,596
You are a con artist,
Billy's obsessed with himself,
185
00:08:16,696 --> 00:08:19,366
and Holden hasn't been anything
more than a glorified gofer.
186
00:08:19,466 --> 00:08:22,068
So the three of you
at Chancellor together...
187
00:08:22,168 --> 00:08:24,304
you're gonna bury the company.
188
00:08:26,473 --> 00:08:28,875
So Jill said there are
issues at Chancellor.
189
00:08:28,975 --> 00:08:32,812
Complexities, not issues.
She said the word complexities.
190
00:08:32,912 --> 00:08:34,714
Okay.
191
00:08:34,814 --> 00:08:36,616
That still doesn't definitively
mean secret.
192
00:08:36,716 --> 00:08:38,785
No, there's a tone.
It's the context.
193
00:08:38,885 --> 00:08:40,820
Of all of it. Her keeping me
away from Chancellor
194
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,956
after all these years--
it never made sense to me.
195
00:08:43,056 --> 00:08:44,090
Okay, but that's not
entirely true.
196
00:08:44,190 --> 00:08:45,725
You've worked at Chancellor
plenty of times.
197
00:08:45,825 --> 00:08:47,494
Sure. And when I think back
on that,
198
00:08:47,594 --> 00:08:50,397
it's clear that I was meant
to stay in a lane.
199
00:08:50,497 --> 00:08:52,165
Even with Lily,
there was boundaries there.
200
00:08:52,265 --> 00:08:55,201
She was there to check in
when Jill wasn't available
201
00:08:55,301 --> 00:08:57,170
to give me power,
but just not enough.
202
00:08:57,270 --> 00:08:59,205
Okay, but checks and balances
are completely usual--
203
00:08:59,305 --> 00:09:01,541
Sally, trust me,
it all clicked, okay?
204
00:09:01,641 --> 00:09:03,610
There's something there.
I know it.
205
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:06,179
Can we just think about this
logically for a second?
206
00:09:06,279 --> 00:09:09,983
You don't get it. It's okay.
I don't expect you to.
207
00:09:10,083 --> 00:09:11,151
Look, Billy,
208
00:09:11,251 --> 00:09:12,886
if there were complexities
to hide,
209
00:09:12,986 --> 00:09:14,654
why would she sell it back
to Victor?
210
00:09:14,754 --> 00:09:15,955
I mean,
Nikki ran it for a while.
211
00:09:16,056 --> 00:09:17,390
Phyllis had it for like
two seconds.
212
00:09:17,490 --> 00:09:19,025
They never found anything.
213
00:09:19,125 --> 00:09:21,895
Of course. They were busy
running the company, you know?
214
00:09:21,995 --> 00:09:23,930
It's a multinational
conglomerate.
215
00:09:24,030 --> 00:09:25,598
There's a lot of moving parts.
216
00:09:25,698 --> 00:09:29,302
I mean, the Maltese Falcon,
the Rosebud, the...
217
00:09:29,402 --> 00:09:31,104
Ark of the Covenant
could be locked away
218
00:09:31,204 --> 00:09:33,640
in some warehouse somewhere,
and nobody would look for it.
219
00:09:33,740 --> 00:09:35,708
Wow. Okay, movie props.
That's what she's hiding.
220
00:09:35,809 --> 00:09:37,410
My point is we don't know
what we're looking for,
221
00:09:37,510 --> 00:09:39,579
but she's keeping something
secret, okay?
222
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,281
She knows that I would find it.
223
00:09:41,381 --> 00:09:43,149
No one else would even
know how to look.
224
00:09:43,249 --> 00:09:45,985
Okay, look...
225
00:09:46,086 --> 00:09:48,421
I know it feels like Jill
chooses Cane a lot of the--
226
00:09:48,521 --> 00:09:49,756
She does.
227
00:09:49,856 --> 00:09:51,858
But that's not what
this is about.
228
00:09:51,958 --> 00:09:54,160
I know I sound a little crazy,
229
00:09:54,260 --> 00:09:56,563
but there's something there,
Sally.
230
00:09:56,663 --> 00:10:01,034
And now that I know, I have to
go find out what it is.
231
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,578
Chancellor is going to end
because of me?
232
00:10:11,678 --> 00:10:14,013
Okay. Well...
233
00:10:14,114 --> 00:10:17,417
just for a second,
let's--let's forget about
234
00:10:17,517 --> 00:10:20,386
all the rest of the staff or
the fact that Lily's in charge
235
00:10:20,487 --> 00:10:22,021
and she's actually
making the decisions.
236
00:10:22,122 --> 00:10:24,924
And let's forget about the fact
that Chancellor's been around
237
00:10:25,024 --> 00:10:28,261
for well over 50 years
under different leadership.
238
00:10:28,361 --> 00:10:31,197
You think that I'm gonna be
the one who kills it.
239
00:10:31,297 --> 00:10:34,033
That's right. You, Billy,
and Holden, yeah.
240
00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:36,269
All right, well, Billy hasn't
accepted the job offer yet,
241
00:10:36,369 --> 00:10:38,972
and Holden is Lily's brother.
242
00:10:39,072 --> 00:10:41,608
-I'm well aware of who he is.
-But you don't care.
243
00:10:41,708 --> 00:10:43,510
So what happened
to all that devotion
244
00:10:43,610 --> 00:10:46,679
about the family business?
Only if it's your family?
245
00:10:46,779 --> 00:10:48,681
Do you think just because
he and Lily share DNA
246
00:10:48,781 --> 00:10:50,683
you should trust him
automatically?
247
00:10:50,783 --> 00:10:53,086
Again--so it only counts
if it's your DNA, Devon?
248
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,855
See, Lily didn't think
that you were gonna give him
249
00:10:55,955 --> 00:10:57,924
an offer to go to Winters,
which is why she thought
250
00:10:58,024 --> 00:11:00,026
it was a good idea for me
to bring him into Chancellor.
251
00:11:00,126 --> 00:11:02,262
It's a dumb idea
to give someone like that power
252
00:11:02,362 --> 00:11:04,597
when they haven't done anything
to prove they deserve it.
253
00:11:04,697 --> 00:11:06,332
I worked with him. I trust him.
254
00:11:06,432 --> 00:11:08,601
-Oh, you're a great reference.
-Okay, well, I'm not
255
00:11:08,701 --> 00:11:10,803
making him CFO, Devon.
I'm giving him a job.
256
00:11:10,904 --> 00:11:12,906
A job where he's gonna
learn the business.
257
00:11:13,006 --> 00:11:14,974
And if he learns the business
well enough,
258
00:11:15,074 --> 00:11:17,076
he will be promoted.
But you understand that.
259
00:11:17,177 --> 00:11:19,145
You're just looking for another
reason to unload on me.
260
00:11:19,245 --> 00:11:21,848
I don't need any reason more
to unload on you, okay?
261
00:11:21,948 --> 00:11:23,349
You stuck around this town
262
00:11:23,449 --> 00:11:24,617
without anybody
wanting you here.
263
00:11:24,717 --> 00:11:26,052
You're with my sister now,
264
00:11:26,152 --> 00:11:27,820
and you got
my grandmother's company.
265
00:11:27,921 --> 00:11:29,789
I loved Katherine,
and she loved me back,
266
00:11:29,889 --> 00:11:31,291
whether I deserved it or not.
267
00:11:31,391 --> 00:11:33,693
She did.
You're good at fooling people.
268
00:11:33,793 --> 00:11:35,728
-You're really good, Cane.
-Will you just use your head
269
00:11:35,828 --> 00:11:39,499
for two minutes? Wh-what would
I gain by destroying Chancellor?
270
00:11:39,599 --> 00:11:41,501
Of course you don't wanna
destroy it on purpose.
271
00:11:41,601 --> 00:11:44,437
It's who you are. Everything
you touch gets ruined.
272
00:11:44,537 --> 00:11:46,172
Look.
273
00:11:48,341 --> 00:11:51,477
We don't have to be friends,
okay?
274
00:11:51,578 --> 00:11:53,646
But your sister's
everything to me,
275
00:11:53,746 --> 00:11:55,481
and she's worried about you.
276
00:11:55,582 --> 00:11:57,684
I don't need you telling me
how my sister feels about me.
277
00:11:57,784 --> 00:11:59,552
She's worried about you.
278
00:11:59,652 --> 00:12:01,421
She's worried that
you're making up all this noise
279
00:12:01,521 --> 00:12:03,156
to distract from something else.
280
00:12:03,256 --> 00:12:05,692
This is none of your business.
Can you leave this alone?
281
00:12:05,792 --> 00:12:06,926
Devon, you need to figure it out
282
00:12:07,026 --> 00:12:08,761
before you start
pushing people away.
283
00:12:10,663 --> 00:12:11,998
ASHLEY: What's going on
with him?
284
00:12:12,098 --> 00:12:13,566
You said he's shutting you out?
285
00:12:13,666 --> 00:12:16,402
Yeah, and it's not because
he's worried about my feelings
286
00:12:16,502 --> 00:12:19,639
or that he doesn't wanna
worry me, I mean...
287
00:12:19,739 --> 00:12:22,242
it's something else.
I just--I don't know what it is.
288
00:12:22,342 --> 00:12:25,178
-You're sure it's not Dominic?
-I think it started that way.
289
00:12:25,278 --> 00:12:27,981
Yeah. He and I had very
different reactions
290
00:12:28,081 --> 00:12:30,583
to Mariah being sentenced
to a psych facility.
291
00:12:30,683 --> 00:12:32,151
Yeah, you mentioned
that he was petitioning
292
00:12:32,252 --> 00:12:33,620
for different sentencing?
293
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,456
Without even bothering
to talk to me about it.
294
00:12:36,556 --> 00:12:38,191
That doesn't sound like you
at all.
295
00:12:38,291 --> 00:12:40,493
I mean, the two of you have
always had great communication.
296
00:12:40,593 --> 00:12:42,295
I know,
'cause we were best friends
297
00:12:42,395 --> 00:12:43,830
before we were ever a couple,
298
00:12:43,930 --> 00:12:45,531
and that's what makes this
so hard.
299
00:12:45,632 --> 00:12:47,934
So you talked to him about it.
What did he say?
300
00:12:48,034 --> 00:12:50,536
Well, I talked to him,
and I felt like he heard me.
301
00:12:50,637 --> 00:12:53,306
He even went to go see Mariah
at that facility.
302
00:12:53,406 --> 00:12:54,574
It didn't help?
303
00:12:54,674 --> 00:12:56,542
It did for a little bit.
304
00:12:56,643 --> 00:12:58,645
I mean, he said that
he found some relief
305
00:12:58,745 --> 00:13:02,181
in talking to Mariah...
and he was fine for a few days.
306
00:13:02,282 --> 00:13:05,585
-What happened then?
-The mood swings came back.
307
00:13:05,685 --> 00:13:08,254
And even worse, I just--
308
00:13:08,354 --> 00:13:11,457
I don't think this is about
Mariah and Dominic.
309
00:13:11,557 --> 00:13:14,294
It's something else. It feels
like this has escalated.
310
00:13:14,394 --> 00:13:16,262
And you actually talked to him
already about all of this?
311
00:13:16,362 --> 00:13:18,665
Yes, and he says
that everything's fine,
312
00:13:18,765 --> 00:13:21,067
that he's all right,
but...he's not.
313
00:13:21,167 --> 00:13:24,771
When he's not angry,
he's withdrawn and depressed.
314
00:13:24,871 --> 00:13:26,673
Even when he's with Dominic?
315
00:13:26,773 --> 00:13:29,342
I mean, he puts a smile on
for Dominic,
316
00:13:29,442 --> 00:13:32,312
but Dominic's smart.
He sees that something is wrong,
317
00:13:32,412 --> 00:13:35,381
that something is different.
This is not like Devon.
318
00:13:36,349 --> 00:13:38,418
I don't know how I can help him
unless I talk to him.
319
00:13:38,518 --> 00:13:41,754
Are you okay with that? I mean,
maybe he'll open up to me.
320
00:13:44,891 --> 00:13:47,126
-I love you...
-Oof.
321
00:13:47,226 --> 00:13:50,630
-The most ominous preamble ever.
-You know what I'm about to say?
322
00:13:50,730 --> 00:13:53,333
That I'm paranoid?
323
00:13:53,433 --> 00:13:55,201
-Okay--no.
-No?
324
00:13:55,301 --> 00:13:58,204
Cane offers you a job
at Chancellor to work for him.
325
00:13:58,304 --> 00:14:00,940
He's working for Lily in a place
that you used to call the shots,
326
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,043
and now...you think your mother
has some ulterior motive
327
00:14:04,143 --> 00:14:06,346
and wants to keep you
far away from Chancellor.
328
00:14:06,446 --> 00:14:07,547
So I'm irrational
329
00:14:07,647 --> 00:14:09,082
-and obsessive.
-No, I didn't say that.
330
00:14:09,182 --> 00:14:10,850
-Those are not my words.
-You kinda said that.
331
00:14:10,950 --> 00:14:12,585
Your mother thinks I'm fixated,
by the way.
332
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:14,487
Hey, no. Let's not bring
the baby into this.
333
00:14:14,587 --> 00:14:17,623
This is between you and me.
That's not fair.
334
00:14:17,724 --> 00:14:20,493
Of course our baby
would want me to say this.
335
00:14:20,593 --> 00:14:23,696
Say what, exactly?
336
00:14:23,796 --> 00:14:28,034
I saw the dynamic between
you and your mom yesterday.
337
00:14:29,736 --> 00:14:32,071
And I get it. Everything
that you're feeling, I saw it.
338
00:14:32,171 --> 00:14:34,574
I get it.
339
00:14:34,674 --> 00:14:36,376
But...
340
00:14:36,476 --> 00:14:39,512
I...wasn't with you and Jill
on the plane, okay?
341
00:14:39,612 --> 00:14:42,248
Maybe I would or wouldn't have
heard the subtext that you did
342
00:14:42,348 --> 00:14:45,251
even if I was there,
but regardless...
343
00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:50,623
I do think you found another way
to fixate on Chancellor.
344
00:14:52,091 --> 00:14:53,960
What you're saying makes sense.
345
00:14:54,060 --> 00:14:56,329
-Don't really have an argument.
-Mm-hmm.
346
00:14:56,429 --> 00:14:58,431
But you're gonna argue anyway?
347
00:14:58,531 --> 00:15:00,366
We're talking about Katherine.
348
00:15:00,466 --> 00:15:02,335
Katherine and my mother's
relationship.
349
00:15:02,435 --> 00:15:04,637
It was very intense.
350
00:15:04,737 --> 00:15:07,640
Lot of love and hate.
In the end, it was mostly love.
351
00:15:07,740 --> 00:15:10,443
-I know.
-But there were secrets.
352
00:15:10,543 --> 00:15:13,279
Mostly on Katherine's side.
353
00:15:13,379 --> 00:15:15,548
A concealed deed,
hidden necklace,
354
00:15:15,648 --> 00:15:18,351
a mysterious music box.
355
00:15:18,451 --> 00:15:19,819
Those were all Katherine's,
356
00:15:19,919 --> 00:15:21,788
so maybe my mother
learned from the best, okay?
357
00:15:21,888 --> 00:15:24,157
Because she does have secrets.
358
00:15:24,257 --> 00:15:26,626
Trust me. Finding out
how I was conceived?
359
00:15:26,726 --> 00:15:30,263
That was a doozy.
That was a...fun one to learn.
360
00:15:32,899 --> 00:15:35,368
Sally, there's a secret
inside Chancellor.
361
00:15:36,869 --> 00:15:39,639
And I have to find out
what it is.
362
00:15:46,279 --> 00:15:49,115
-No, no, you can't talk to him.
-Well, if you want me to help,
363
00:15:49,215 --> 00:15:51,451
I mean, at least let me try.
364
00:15:51,551 --> 00:15:54,487
I'm just afraid that he's gonna
think that I ran to my mommy
365
00:15:54,587 --> 00:15:58,524
and that I'm sharing
our personal family issues.
366
00:15:58,624 --> 00:16:00,560
Well, with a family member.
367
00:16:00,660 --> 00:16:03,029
I know. I'm just--
I'm afraid that I'm gonna
368
00:16:03,129 --> 00:16:05,631
push him away from me even more.
369
00:16:05,731 --> 00:16:08,367
Okay, well, whatever
Devon's going through,
370
00:16:08,468 --> 00:16:11,471
I mean, obviously
it's painful for him, right?
371
00:16:11,571 --> 00:16:13,639
I know it is. Yeah.
372
00:16:13,739 --> 00:16:17,343
Okay, so these feelings--maybe
he's ashamed of them, right?
373
00:16:17,443 --> 00:16:19,846
And maybe it's keeping him
from getting the help he needs
374
00:16:19,946 --> 00:16:21,280
when he needs it the most.
375
00:16:21,380 --> 00:16:23,683
Do you...do you know something?
376
00:16:23,783 --> 00:16:25,618
Have you already talked to him
about--
377
00:16:25,718 --> 00:16:27,787
No. It's just familiar
territory for me.
378
00:16:27,887 --> 00:16:30,189
I know what it's like to have
thoughts that are spiraling
379
00:16:30,289 --> 00:16:32,992
that are overwhelming,
and you think that it's too much
380
00:16:33,092 --> 00:16:34,327
for you to handle.
381
00:16:34,427 --> 00:16:36,829
I just don't want that
for either one of you.
382
00:16:36,929 --> 00:16:39,632
-You love him too.
-Of course I do.
383
00:16:39,732 --> 00:16:43,202
I mean, I wanna help him
for his sake and for yours.
384
00:16:44,604 --> 00:16:47,073
I'm afraid it's gonna
make things even worse.
385
00:16:47,173 --> 00:16:49,408
You really think I'm gonna
go to Devon and say,
386
00:16:49,509 --> 00:16:51,711
"What the hell are you doing
to my beautiful little girl?
387
00:16:51,811 --> 00:16:53,579
You're not the son-in-law
I signed up for"?
388
00:16:53,679 --> 00:16:55,381
You think I'm gonna say that?
389
00:16:55,481 --> 00:16:58,217
No. I-I know
that you would be subtle.
390
00:16:58,317 --> 00:17:00,453
You're afraid that maybe
he'll take it that way.
391
00:17:00,553 --> 00:17:03,890
He's just been so sensitive
recently. Yes. Yeah.
392
00:17:03,990 --> 00:17:05,858
I understand.
It can be a little tricky
393
00:17:05,958 --> 00:17:09,195
when you confront somebody
who has rather erratic behavior.
394
00:17:09,295 --> 00:17:11,297
I have been that person.
395
00:17:11,397 --> 00:17:14,433
I know what it's like
to push people away.
396
00:17:14,534 --> 00:17:16,702
But thank God Jack and Traci
wouldn't let me,
397
00:17:16,802 --> 00:17:19,305
and they made sure that
I got the help that I needed.
398
00:17:19,405 --> 00:17:21,807
I mean, honestly, you've tried.
399
00:17:21,908 --> 00:17:25,177
Why don't you let me?
I mean, maybe I can help.
400
00:17:27,747 --> 00:17:29,482
Okay.
401
00:17:29,582 --> 00:17:31,651
Yes, please talk to him.
402
00:17:33,419 --> 00:17:35,488
I mean,
I don't want him suffering
403
00:17:35,588 --> 00:17:37,623
any more than he already has.
404
00:17:38,391 --> 00:17:40,192
I'm fine.
405
00:17:40,293 --> 00:17:41,527
Lily doesn't think so.
406
00:17:41,627 --> 00:17:43,195
Well, that's between Lily
and me.
407
00:17:43,296 --> 00:17:44,730
-It's none of your business.
-Yeah, well,
408
00:17:44,830 --> 00:17:47,033
she made it my business
when she confided in me.
409
00:17:47,133 --> 00:17:50,570
See, me personally, Devon--
I don't--I don't care about you.
410
00:17:50,670 --> 00:17:52,405
I don't care about
your feelings.
411
00:17:52,505 --> 00:17:54,407
Believe me, I know. You don't
care about anybody's feelings
412
00:17:54,507 --> 00:17:56,042
-except for yourself.
-That's not true.
413
00:17:56,142 --> 00:17:58,177
No, I care about Lily.
Very much.
414
00:17:58,277 --> 00:18:00,780
And whatever's going on with you
has her worried.
415
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,015
Is this your way of deflecting
from what I just said to you
416
00:18:03,115 --> 00:18:04,617
about not being good
for Chancellor or Lily?
417
00:18:04,717 --> 00:18:06,385
-You're turning it around on me.
-If Lily's this upset
418
00:18:06,485 --> 00:18:07,887
how is Abby dealing with it all,
419
00:18:07,987 --> 00:18:10,356
and how is your relationship
with your son?
420
00:18:10,456 --> 00:18:14,293
Cane, don't you ever,
and I mean ever
421
00:18:14,393 --> 00:18:17,396
bring up me as a father
or me as a husband.
422
00:18:17,496 --> 00:18:19,632
-You understand that?
-Why? Because I was the worst?
423
00:18:19,732 --> 00:18:22,368
-You're damn right.
-Yeah, you're right, I was.
424
00:18:22,468 --> 00:18:25,171
I destroyed everything,
and I paid a high price for it,
425
00:18:25,271 --> 00:18:27,173
and I had to fight like hell
to fix it--I still am.
426
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:29,742
But believe it or not, Devon,
you could learn a thing or two
427
00:18:29,842 --> 00:18:31,377
-from my example.
-Oh, really?
428
00:18:31,477 --> 00:18:33,212
We have nothing in common.
429
00:18:33,312 --> 00:18:35,615
Isn't it hard, Devon,
to carry around all that rage?
430
00:18:39,885 --> 00:18:41,721
You know what?
431
00:18:41,821 --> 00:18:43,422
Would you like to
help me with it?
432
00:18:43,522 --> 00:18:44,824
Yeah.
433
00:18:44,924 --> 00:18:50,463
Why don't you allow Lily and I
to fold Chancellor
434
00:18:50,563 --> 00:18:53,299
into Winters like we should have
done a long time ago?
435
00:18:53,399 --> 00:18:57,103
And then you can go
and park your train
436
00:18:57,203 --> 00:18:58,671
-a couple states away.
-Okay.
437
00:18:58,771 --> 00:19:01,474
-And make me real happy.
-All right.
438
00:19:01,574 --> 00:19:05,311
So that's what this is
about then? Chancellor?
439
00:19:05,411 --> 00:19:08,247
2 1/2 billion
isn't enough for you?
440
00:19:08,347 --> 00:19:09,548
We're done.
441
00:19:09,649 --> 00:19:11,617
-What, I hit a nerve?
-I said we're done.
442
00:19:11,717 --> 00:19:13,119
[chair scrapes loudly]
443
00:19:18,190 --> 00:19:20,359
So the baby wanted you
to say all that, huh?
444
00:19:20,459 --> 00:19:22,928
-You were changing the subject.
-Just trying to shake off
445
00:19:23,029 --> 00:19:24,430
the Jill vibes, okay?
446
00:19:24,530 --> 00:19:26,632
I'm sorry if I'm talking
smack about your grandmother.
447
00:19:26,732 --> 00:19:28,434
-I don't do it very often.
-[laughs] Wow!
448
00:19:28,534 --> 00:19:30,302
Already fibbing to the baby!
449
00:19:30,403 --> 00:19:32,271
-I can't believe you.
-Let's talk about you.
450
00:19:32,371 --> 00:19:33,773
-How're you feeling?
-Billy--
451
00:19:33,873 --> 00:19:35,608
Oh, come on. I'm not trying
to change the subject.
452
00:19:35,708 --> 00:19:37,877
I just think we should
get off of the Jill topic.
453
00:19:37,977 --> 00:19:40,913
I think it's better for you,
for the baby, for everyone.
454
00:19:41,013 --> 00:19:43,015
I am...
455
00:19:43,115 --> 00:19:45,217
I don't feel as sick as often,
which is great.
456
00:19:45,317 --> 00:19:48,454
-Good.
-Yes, but little Hector
457
00:19:48,554 --> 00:19:51,657
or Electra Spectra-Abbott
really wants a milkshake.
458
00:19:51,757 --> 00:19:55,327
Well, that baby deserves
a milkshake and a better name.
459
00:19:55,428 --> 00:19:59,231
[laughs] Yeah, I agree. I do.
But I have to watch my sugar.
460
00:19:59,331 --> 00:20:01,367
Which is fine. Totally worth it.
461
00:20:01,467 --> 00:20:03,269
-But...
-But milkshakes are amazing.
462
00:20:03,369 --> 00:20:05,271
I know. Maybe I can watch you
drink one.
463
00:20:05,371 --> 00:20:08,374
Okay. It's a little weird,
but I'm into it.
464
00:20:08,474 --> 00:20:09,942
I'll sacrifice anything for you.
465
00:20:10,042 --> 00:20:12,311
Aw. That's why I love you.
466
00:20:12,411 --> 00:20:14,013
We okay?
467
00:20:14,113 --> 00:20:16,415
Yeah.
468
00:20:16,515 --> 00:20:18,718
Look, I can worry about you
and Chancellor
469
00:20:18,818 --> 00:20:21,620
and a million other things,
and we will always be okay.
470
00:20:24,890 --> 00:20:26,959
You're a unicorn. You know that?
471
00:20:27,059 --> 00:20:29,395
-One I don't deserve.
-Why, 'cause I love you
472
00:20:29,495 --> 00:20:31,697
-no matter what?
-Fixations and all.
473
00:20:31,797 --> 00:20:33,733
I'm gonna keep checking in
on you.
474
00:20:33,833 --> 00:20:35,735
Okay. Good.
475
00:20:35,835 --> 00:20:38,537
And I'll keep checking in
on you.
476
00:20:38,637 --> 00:20:41,006
Actually, let me do that
right now.
477
00:20:41,107 --> 00:20:42,708
How's Spectra-Charles going?
478
00:20:42,808 --> 00:20:45,644
Anything new?
479
00:20:46,846 --> 00:20:48,848
Uh-oh.
480
00:20:48,948 --> 00:20:51,117
What happened?
481
00:20:58,557 --> 00:21:00,292
Spectra-Charles
is run by a unicorn
482
00:21:00,392 --> 00:21:01,894
-and a brilliant partner.
-Yeah, I know that.
483
00:21:01,994 --> 00:21:04,396
-So what could go wrong?
-But you made a face.
484
00:21:04,497 --> 00:21:06,332
I-I always make faces.
485
00:21:06,432 --> 00:21:08,033
No, but this--
you made that face,
486
00:21:08,134 --> 00:21:10,035
you know, where you
kind of froze for a second.
487
00:21:10,136 --> 00:21:11,771
What if I said the baby kicked?
488
00:21:11,871 --> 00:21:14,406
-Is that what happened?
-Maybe. Could have been.
489
00:21:14,507 --> 00:21:18,277
Look, Spectra-Charles
is in great shape, okay?
490
00:21:18,377 --> 00:21:20,079
Audra and I are always
three steps ahead.
491
00:21:20,179 --> 00:21:21,313
We work really well together
492
00:21:21,413 --> 00:21:23,716
and we feed off
each other's ideas and energy.
493
00:21:23,816 --> 00:21:26,218
And you never argue, and cute
little birds bring you tea
494
00:21:26,318 --> 00:21:27,787
and finger sandwiches,
and milkshakes
495
00:21:27,887 --> 00:21:29,188
-don't raise your blood sugar.
-Oh, my God.
496
00:21:29,288 --> 00:21:30,556
-That sounds like a dream.
-Everything's perfect.
497
00:21:30,656 --> 00:21:33,993
Um, no. We do disagree. We do.
498
00:21:34,093 --> 00:21:36,362
And we just talk it through.
We pick our battles,
499
00:21:36,462 --> 00:21:38,898
and in the end we, you know,
500
00:21:38,998 --> 00:21:40,699
make a choice
that we both believe in.
501
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,369
That's a really big deal.
502
00:21:43,469 --> 00:21:45,738
It is. It's a very big deal.
503
00:21:45,838 --> 00:21:48,140
And I am jealous
that she's your partner.
504
00:21:49,542 --> 00:21:51,644
Well, you're my partner
in everything else.
505
00:21:51,744 --> 00:21:54,713
-You heard that, right?
-Ha ha.
506
00:21:57,249 --> 00:21:59,485
You know, I was on the phone
with Audra
507
00:21:59,585 --> 00:22:02,254
-when you came in earlier.
-When I stormed in
508
00:22:02,354 --> 00:22:04,924
-and freaked you out?
-Oh! Is...
509
00:22:05,024 --> 00:22:06,926
Is that--was that what you did?
You stormed in?
510
00:22:07,026 --> 00:22:08,894
'Cause I thought the wind
just slammed the door.
511
00:22:08,994 --> 00:22:11,730
I'm sorry that you had to cut
your call short because of me.
512
00:22:12,832 --> 00:22:15,534
It's fine. We were pretty much
almost done anyway.
513
00:22:15,634 --> 00:22:17,536
So was it something big?
514
00:22:19,171 --> 00:22:21,740
Well, big is relative.
515
00:22:21,841 --> 00:22:23,509
It's not small.
516
00:22:26,078 --> 00:22:28,747
So there's news?
517
00:22:28,848 --> 00:22:30,749
Eventually, yeah.
518
00:22:30,850 --> 00:22:34,153
Okay, what I'm hearing is you
don't wanna share it with me.
519
00:22:34,253 --> 00:22:35,621
No, no, no, I do wanna
share it with you.
520
00:22:35,721 --> 00:22:37,456
-Yeah?
-I do. Yeah. I just, you know,
521
00:22:37,556 --> 00:22:41,060
maybe later when I watch you
drink your milkshake.
522
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,628
So you're using me?
Is that what you're saying?
523
00:22:42,728 --> 00:22:46,131
-That's exactly what I'm doing.
-I'm okay with it.
524
00:22:46,232 --> 00:22:49,401
Okay, well, do you wanna
meet at Society later?
525
00:22:50,703 --> 00:22:52,571
Do they have milkshakes there?
526
00:22:52,671 --> 00:22:53,672
-Damn.
-No?
527
00:22:53,772 --> 00:22:55,140
No. But we can get one after.
528
00:22:55,241 --> 00:22:56,976
-I'll save some space.
-Thank you.
529
00:22:57,076 --> 00:22:59,545
In the meantime...
530
00:22:59,645 --> 00:23:01,180
I'm gonna go check in with Cane.
531
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,117
Mm. Chancellor
and your mother's secrets?
532
00:23:06,085 --> 00:23:08,654
He deserves to know.
533
00:23:08,754 --> 00:23:11,223
And I'm excited
to hear your big news.
534
00:23:13,859 --> 00:23:15,928
I'm excited to tell you.
535
00:23:20,366 --> 00:23:21,367
-Hey, hey.
-Hi!
536
00:23:21,467 --> 00:23:22,468
-Aw.
-Hello.
537
00:23:22,568 --> 00:23:23,569
-How are you?
-Good.
538
00:23:23,669 --> 00:23:25,104
Thank you for this invite.
539
00:23:25,204 --> 00:23:27,239
I was assuming it was just
a mother-daughter breakfast.
540
00:23:27,339 --> 00:23:30,042
Well, Mom took Dominic
to art class this morning,
541
00:23:30,142 --> 00:23:33,445
and I was just hearing about
what a genius he is.
542
00:23:33,545 --> 00:23:36,181
Is it just me, or is he the most
incredible child ever?
543
00:23:36,282 --> 00:23:37,850
-And he's hilarious.
-He is!
544
00:23:37,950 --> 00:23:41,186
-And he's loud and he's goofy.
-Little bit.
545
00:23:41,287 --> 00:23:44,089
And he's messy. But he's also
sensitive and confident,
546
00:23:44,189 --> 00:23:46,158
and he knows that he's loved,
and it shows.
547
00:23:46,258 --> 00:23:48,060
And that's a testament
to the both of you.
548
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,329
I hope you're proud
of yourselves.
549
00:23:50,429 --> 00:23:52,765
I'm very proud of you.
550
00:23:52,865 --> 00:23:55,634
-Thank you.
-Well, keep being proud of me,
551
00:23:55,734 --> 00:23:59,171
please, um, because
I have to go deal with
552
00:23:59,271 --> 00:24:00,739
a fish delivery.
553
00:24:00,839 --> 00:24:03,208
So I--I'll be back soon, yeah.
554
00:24:03,309 --> 00:24:05,344
-Okay. Bye, honey.
-Bye.
555
00:24:05,444 --> 00:24:07,446
Bye.
556
00:24:08,981 --> 00:24:10,749
That didn't seem preplanned
at all.
557
00:24:10,849 --> 00:24:12,051
[laughs] Yeah.
558
00:24:13,352 --> 00:24:15,521
I wanted to connect with you.
559
00:24:15,621 --> 00:24:18,290
You and Abby
have been through a lot
560
00:24:18,390 --> 00:24:21,493
in a short amount of time,
and, uh...
561
00:24:21,593 --> 00:24:25,197
I'm very sorry that I wasn't
able to be here for you.
562
00:24:25,297 --> 00:24:27,766
You have nothing to apologize
for at all.
563
00:24:27,866 --> 00:24:29,301
And we're doing okay too.
564
00:24:29,401 --> 00:24:32,771
Under the circumstances,
okay is...okay.
565
00:24:34,173 --> 00:24:36,141
But what happened with Dominic
was terrifying.
566
00:24:36,241 --> 00:24:38,510
And how have you been
since all that?
567
00:24:41,747 --> 00:24:44,883
Hey. Good timing.
568
00:24:44,984 --> 00:24:47,653
-Is that sarcastic?
-No. No.
569
00:24:47,753 --> 00:24:49,088
I'm being very serious,
570
00:24:49,188 --> 00:24:50,990
because if you were here
a few minutes ago,
571
00:24:51,090 --> 00:24:52,925
it would have got pretty messy.
572
00:24:53,025 --> 00:24:54,326
-Devon was here.
-Oh, yeah?
573
00:24:54,426 --> 00:24:56,528
Letting me have it. Yeah.
He didn't care who heard.
574
00:24:56,628 --> 00:24:59,398
Talking about how much he hates
you or how much he hates me?
575
00:24:59,498 --> 00:25:01,333
Both. Yeah, both.
576
00:25:01,433 --> 00:25:03,502
And about how much
he hates Holden Novak.
577
00:25:03,602 --> 00:25:05,337
You can tell Lily's new brother
to get in line.
578
00:25:05,437 --> 00:25:06,772
He hated us first.
579
00:25:06,872 --> 00:25:09,575
Yeah, so, she was, uh, she was
wrong to put me in charge,
580
00:25:09,675 --> 00:25:11,744
and I hire all the worst people.
581
00:25:11,844 --> 00:25:14,279
Well, Devon's a ray of sunshine.
You know that.
582
00:25:14,380 --> 00:25:17,649
Oh, and, uh, we're gonna destroy
Katherine's legacy.
583
00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:19,852
I'm sure you handled yourself
with class.
584
00:25:19,952 --> 00:25:23,822
Yeah. I mean, it's Lily's
brother, so what am I gonna say?
585
00:25:23,922 --> 00:25:26,558
Tell you what, though.
Makes me wanna go fast and hard
586
00:25:26,658 --> 00:25:29,695
at making Chancellor
an even greater success.
587
00:25:29,795 --> 00:25:32,264
Well, you might not have
Devon's approval,
588
00:25:32,364 --> 00:25:34,867
but you sure as hell
have Jill's.
589
00:25:34,967 --> 00:25:36,869
Speaking of Jill...
590
00:25:36,969 --> 00:25:38,804
what are you doing back
from London so soon?
591
00:25:38,904 --> 00:25:41,273
Whatever fight you think we had,
downplay it
592
00:25:41,373 --> 00:25:43,442
by about two notches,
but, yeah, that happened.
593
00:25:43,542 --> 00:25:45,844
-Wanna talk about it?
-No, I don't.
594
00:25:45,944 --> 00:25:48,447
But it is nice to know
that I was right.
595
00:25:49,982 --> 00:25:51,550
She's got a secret agenda
596
00:25:51,650 --> 00:25:53,819
to keep me as far away from
Chancellor as possible.
597
00:25:53,919 --> 00:25:55,621
She doesn't want me
anywhere near the place.
598
00:25:55,721 --> 00:25:58,290
There's something
deep inside that place, Cane...
599
00:25:58,390 --> 00:26:00,059
the secret or mystery
of some sort
600
00:26:00,159 --> 00:26:02,461
that she does not
want me to know.
601
00:26:02,561 --> 00:26:05,964
So you give me that contract.
I'll sign on the dotted line.
602
00:26:06,065 --> 00:26:07,966
I'll be your new hire.
I'll knock it out of the park,
603
00:26:08,067 --> 00:26:11,870
and I'll find out what she wants
to keep hidden from me.
604
00:26:19,011 --> 00:26:20,879
When you care about somebody
and they betray you
605
00:26:20,979 --> 00:26:24,683
the way that Mariah did,
it's devastating.
606
00:26:24,783 --> 00:26:27,553
And I know she's not Martin
and she wants to help,
607
00:26:27,653 --> 00:26:30,989
and she's trying to...
get better.
608
00:26:31,090 --> 00:26:33,859
But still, it's a broken trust.
609
00:26:33,959 --> 00:26:36,428
And I would imagine you start
asking yourself questions like,
610
00:26:36,528 --> 00:26:38,464
"Who is this person I trusted?"
And, "What's wrong with me?
611
00:26:38,564 --> 00:26:40,365
Why did I trust them?
How did I not know?"?
612
00:26:40,466 --> 00:26:42,935
-I mean, that's normal.
-Yeah.
613
00:26:43,035 --> 00:26:45,337
Listen, I appreciate
what you're trying to do.
614
00:26:45,437 --> 00:26:48,674
I mean that,
'cause you're 100% right.
615
00:26:48,774 --> 00:26:52,544
It was--it was a nightmare going
through Dominic being gone,
616
00:26:52,644 --> 00:26:54,480
and the worst part of it
was watching Abby
617
00:26:54,580 --> 00:26:56,982
struggling with everything.
But...
618
00:26:57,082 --> 00:26:59,985
He's back, and like you said,
he's doing great.
619
00:27:00,986 --> 00:27:03,422
And that's because
of you and Abby.
620
00:27:03,522 --> 00:27:06,525
That's because of you
being there for him.
621
00:27:06,625 --> 00:27:10,596
And everybody deserves
that level of support.
622
00:27:10,696 --> 00:27:13,132
Not just children.
623
00:27:13,232 --> 00:27:14,967
And sometimes
it can be very difficult
624
00:27:15,067 --> 00:27:16,468
to ask for what you need,
625
00:27:16,568 --> 00:27:18,270
and hopefully the people
that care about you,
626
00:27:18,370 --> 00:27:20,939
that surround you,
are there to offer you help,
627
00:27:21,039 --> 00:27:24,576
which is...
what I'm doing right now.
628
00:27:25,511 --> 00:27:28,147
I appreciate that.
What did Abby say to you?
629
00:27:28,247 --> 00:27:29,715
She said she loves you.
630
00:27:29,815 --> 00:27:32,484
-She's worried about you.
-Okay.
631
00:27:32,584 --> 00:27:34,720
I'm gonna tell you
what I tell her every day,
632
00:27:34,820 --> 00:27:37,523
and that's I'm fine. I'm fine.
633
00:27:42,461 --> 00:27:44,930
I have such regret
634
00:27:45,030 --> 00:27:47,166
that I wasn't here for you
635
00:27:47,266 --> 00:27:50,536
and my daughter
and my grandson.
636
00:27:50,636 --> 00:27:52,905
I'm so, so sorry.
637
00:27:53,005 --> 00:27:56,008
And I have been working
so hard to get healthy.
638
00:27:56,108 --> 00:27:58,343
And I want to be present
639
00:27:58,443 --> 00:28:00,979
for the people
that are important to me.
640
00:28:02,481 --> 00:28:04,683
Do you think that I'm not
showing up for the people
641
00:28:04,783 --> 00:28:06,718
in my life? Is that what
you're saying to me, or--
642
00:28:06,818 --> 00:28:10,222
I'm not reprimanding you.
I'm certainly not judging you.
643
00:28:10,322 --> 00:28:13,258
I know, with every fiber
of my being,
644
00:28:13,358 --> 00:28:15,827
that trauma changes you.
645
00:28:17,429 --> 00:28:20,399
And it can be very difficult...
646
00:28:20,499 --> 00:28:22,901
to come back from it.
647
00:28:23,001 --> 00:28:24,836
And it can be very difficult
648
00:28:24,937 --> 00:28:27,673
to even admit
that it has changed you.
649
00:28:31,610 --> 00:28:33,979
You are gonna love René.
650
00:28:34,079 --> 00:28:35,447
Is that the owner
of the agency?
651
00:28:35,547 --> 00:28:38,584
-That's the one.
-Man René or woman Renée?
652
00:28:38,684 --> 00:28:41,853
Man René. French-Canadian,
but he bounces between
653
00:28:41,954 --> 00:28:44,256
New York and Los Angeles
all the time.
654
00:28:44,356 --> 00:28:47,693
So he has built this agency
for content creators
655
00:28:47,793 --> 00:28:49,595
from the ground up.
656
00:28:49,695 --> 00:28:51,163
And he wants to work with us?
657
00:28:51,263 --> 00:28:52,598
-Of course he does.
-[giggles]
658
00:28:52,698 --> 00:28:54,199
He's reviewing
my pitch right now,
659
00:28:54,299 --> 00:28:55,534
checking with his legal team,
660
00:28:55,634 --> 00:28:57,736
and said he's gonna
get back to me ASAP.
661
00:28:57,836 --> 00:29:00,072
Wow. Must have been
one hell of a pitch.
662
00:29:00,172 --> 00:29:02,441
I focus on Spectra-Charles
assets
663
00:29:02,541 --> 00:29:05,143
rather than anything
to do with Newman Media
664
00:29:05,244 --> 00:29:07,045
because that's bye-bye.
665
00:29:07,145 --> 00:29:10,983
But--whatever. He adores us.
He thinks we're superstars.
666
00:29:11,083 --> 00:29:12,784
So he's gonna pitch us
some content creators,
667
00:29:12,884 --> 00:29:16,755
and we're gonna have a love fest
with or without Newman Media.
668
00:29:16,855 --> 00:29:18,557
Well, it's definitely without.
669
00:29:18,657 --> 00:29:20,359
But that is not
public knowledge.
670
00:29:20,459 --> 00:29:23,629
Yeah, no, don't worry.
I didn't say anything.
671
00:29:23,729 --> 00:29:26,565
But Adam, I'm sure, is gonna...
672
00:29:26,665 --> 00:29:29,801
blab to anyone he comes across
very soon.
673
00:29:29,901 --> 00:29:32,504
Let's just hope he doesn't
speak to anyone in London
674
00:29:32,604 --> 00:29:34,239
who might run into Billy.
675
00:29:34,339 --> 00:29:36,008
Okay. That would never happen.
676
00:29:36,108 --> 00:29:37,909
You never know.
677
00:29:38,010 --> 00:29:41,713
Well, Billy's not in London
anymore. He's back.
678
00:29:41,813 --> 00:29:44,583
-Oh, you saw him?
-Yep. He rushed right home.
679
00:29:44,683 --> 00:29:46,818
-Which is why you hung up on me.
-Yeah.
680
00:29:46,918 --> 00:29:48,487
Did you tell him about the sale?
681
00:29:48,587 --> 00:29:51,490
No. I had the chance. He could
tell that there was news,
682
00:29:51,590 --> 00:29:53,859
and I...I just kept
my mouth shut.
683
00:29:53,959 --> 00:29:55,861
Okay, well, where is he now?
684
00:29:55,961 --> 00:29:57,396
He's meeting with Cane.
685
00:29:57,496 --> 00:29:59,431
-Sally.
-I know.
686
00:29:59,531 --> 00:30:02,234
This is bad, okay? Not the whole
selling Newman Media thing,
687
00:30:02,334 --> 00:30:05,003
but the not telling Billy thing.
688
00:30:06,104 --> 00:30:09,374
Well, even though you agree
with this sale, like--
689
00:30:09,474 --> 00:30:11,743
Yes, I do.
It was the right thing to do.
690
00:30:11,843 --> 00:30:13,245
I have no regrets.
691
00:30:13,345 --> 00:30:16,448
Okay, well, the right thing
to do is also to tell Billy.
692
00:30:16,548 --> 00:30:19,351
How much longer do you think
you can keep this from him?
693
00:30:21,453 --> 00:30:23,622
Jill doesn't want you
at Chancellor
694
00:30:23,722 --> 00:30:26,625
because of some unidentified
buried secret?
695
00:30:26,725 --> 00:30:28,660
Yeah. That doesn't sound
paranoid at all, Billy.
696
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,696
There's something in there,
Cane. I know it.
697
00:30:30,796 --> 00:30:32,764
Okay, but you don't know
what it is.
698
00:30:32,864 --> 00:30:35,000
Is it a person, place, or thing?
699
00:30:35,100 --> 00:30:36,435
No idea.
700
00:30:36,535 --> 00:30:38,036
Okay, then why do you
believe this?
701
00:30:38,136 --> 00:30:41,440
Because Jill got worked up
and she blurted it out.
702
00:30:41,540 --> 00:30:42,874
Worked up when you were arguing?
703
00:30:42,974 --> 00:30:44,943
-Essentially, yes.
-What did she say exactly?
704
00:30:45,043 --> 00:30:46,912
It doesn't matter.
It was the look on her face
705
00:30:47,012 --> 00:30:48,580
-when she started to backpedal.
-Billy--
706
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,315
You know Katherine
just as well as I do.
707
00:30:50,415 --> 00:30:53,585
There's a lot to unpack there,
all right, with Jill and Colin
708
00:30:53,685 --> 00:30:55,887
and the tearing down
of Chancellor Place--everything.
709
00:30:55,987 --> 00:30:58,590
So then what, you think
Katherine was hiding something?
710
00:30:58,690 --> 00:31:00,225
I don't know. Maybe.
711
00:31:00,325 --> 00:31:02,260
What are you doing, Billy?
712
00:31:02,361 --> 00:31:04,629
I can't offer you a contract
when you're acting like this.
713
00:31:04,730 --> 00:31:06,198
What do you care?
Gimme the contract.
714
00:31:06,298 --> 00:31:07,766
I'll do the job, and you know
I'm gonna do it well.
715
00:31:07,866 --> 00:31:08,934
But I'm not offering you a job
so you can go have
716
00:31:09,034 --> 00:31:10,168
a treasure hunt
inside Chancellor--no.
717
00:31:10,268 --> 00:31:11,370
I didn't say anything
about treasure, Cane. no.
718
00:31:11,470 --> 00:31:13,839
-Yeah. Yeah, you did.
-No, I did not.
719
00:31:13,939 --> 00:31:16,541
Do you know what Jill's hiding?
720
00:31:16,641 --> 00:31:19,544
Have you known all along?
721
00:31:26,551 --> 00:31:29,087
Ashley,
I know that you're right.
722
00:31:29,354 --> 00:31:30,722
You're completely right
723
00:31:30,822 --> 00:31:32,958
that it takes time
to get back to normal.
724
00:31:33,058 --> 00:31:35,394
And I promise you
that I've gotten there
725
00:31:35,494 --> 00:31:38,296
when it comes to what happened
to Dominic. I really have.
726
00:31:38,397 --> 00:31:41,032
And I'm there for him.
I'm completely there for him,
727
00:31:41,133 --> 00:31:43,402
and I'm there for Abby. It's...
728
00:31:43,502 --> 00:31:45,203
Abby's there for you too.
You know that.
729
00:31:45,303 --> 00:31:47,005
Of course I do.
730
00:31:47,105 --> 00:31:49,674
-Of course.
-Then lean on her.
731
00:31:53,078 --> 00:31:54,880
I get that you're concerned
about her, but I--
732
00:31:54,980 --> 00:31:58,850
-I'm concerned about you.
-I know. And I'm good, though.
733
00:31:58,950 --> 00:32:00,786
Okay. You don't wanna
talk to me.
734
00:32:00,886 --> 00:32:03,688
Well, there's nothing
to talk about.
735
00:32:03,789 --> 00:32:06,391
I'm an expert
at pretending that I'm fine
736
00:32:06,491 --> 00:32:08,460
when it couldn't be further
from the truth.
737
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:09,995
And I learned the very hard way
738
00:32:10,095 --> 00:32:11,997
that that's not
a very good strategy.
739
00:32:14,065 --> 00:32:16,401
Can't you find some way
of just opening up
740
00:32:16,501 --> 00:32:18,570
and letting her be there
for you?
741
00:32:22,140 --> 00:32:24,676
She's got so much
to deal with in her life.
742
00:32:24,776 --> 00:32:26,645
-Nothing is more important...
-She's got her work.
743
00:32:26,745 --> 00:32:29,181
...than you and Dominic.
744
00:32:29,281 --> 00:32:32,484
I mean, whatever you're feeling,
Devon, I mean...
745
00:32:32,584 --> 00:32:34,986
whatever your feelings are,
if they're confusing
746
00:32:35,086 --> 00:32:37,289
or if you feel unsettled...
747
00:32:37,389 --> 00:32:40,358
-she will understand.
-I don't think she will.
748
00:32:40,459 --> 00:32:42,928
I don't know how she would,
'cause I don't even know
749
00:32:43,028 --> 00:32:44,930
how I can articulate
what I'm feeling.
750
00:32:45,030 --> 00:32:46,798
I don't know what I'm feeling.
751
00:32:46,898 --> 00:32:49,768
Well, maybe if you just...
start opening up to her,
752
00:32:49,868 --> 00:32:51,369
it would mean the world to her.
753
00:32:51,470 --> 00:32:53,438
And you don't know what
direction that would go in.
754
00:32:53,538 --> 00:32:55,974
You just need to take
the first step.
755
00:32:56,074 --> 00:32:58,810
I'll think about doing it.
I'll talk to her.
756
00:33:00,212 --> 00:33:03,715
She's given you so much.
She just wants to give back.
757
00:33:03,815 --> 00:33:06,384
No, and I will always
look out for her, too.
758
00:33:06,485 --> 00:33:09,488
I know. I know. You promised me
that on your wedding day.
759
00:33:09,588 --> 00:33:11,590
And I mean it.
760
00:33:13,625 --> 00:33:14,993
Just try to open up to her.
761
00:33:15,093 --> 00:33:17,662
She really wants to be there
for you so badly.
762
00:33:23,735 --> 00:33:27,105
-I know.
-It was just a question.
763
00:33:27,205 --> 00:33:28,807
I didn't mean to nag.
764
00:33:28,907 --> 00:33:30,976
No, it's just...
765
00:33:31,076 --> 00:33:32,944
I know that I should have
told him, okay?
766
00:33:33,044 --> 00:33:36,615
But I've been here before
like this with you.
767
00:33:37,616 --> 00:33:40,819
-Oh, you mean me being right?
-Yeah. Probably that part too.
768
00:33:40,919 --> 00:33:43,488
But, no, you're the one who
brought me the pregnancy test.
769
00:33:43,588 --> 00:33:45,590
Okay. What does that
have to do with this?
770
00:33:45,690 --> 00:33:48,527
Well, Billy was really upset
that I told you first
771
00:33:48,627 --> 00:33:51,863
and it launched us into
this whole conversation about...
772
00:33:51,963 --> 00:33:54,132
honesty and trust
and confidence,
773
00:33:54,232 --> 00:33:56,535
and now, I mean, look at me.
774
00:33:56,635 --> 00:34:00,038
I'm scared to tell him again.
What--what's wrong with me?
775
00:34:00,138 --> 00:34:02,240
Well, why didn't you tell him
when he got home?
776
00:34:02,340 --> 00:34:05,377
Well, I was going to, but he got
into another argument with Jill
777
00:34:05,477 --> 00:34:07,712
and he was in a mood,
and then when I talked him down,
778
00:34:07,812 --> 00:34:10,515
-he was still distracted.
-With what?
779
00:34:10,615 --> 00:34:13,084
I can't get into it, you know,
but it's just more of
780
00:34:13,184 --> 00:34:15,186
how he doesn't think
Jill's being honest with him
781
00:34:15,287 --> 00:34:19,357
or trust him and--ha--here I am
not being honest with him.
782
00:34:19,457 --> 00:34:21,026
Yet.
783
00:34:21,126 --> 00:34:24,496
Okay? You were just
waiting for the right time
784
00:34:24,596 --> 00:34:27,732
to talk to him about it,
about something very important.
785
00:34:27,832 --> 00:34:30,635
And you would have told him
earlier if it wasn't for
786
00:34:30,735 --> 00:34:33,805
one of his damn moods.
787
00:34:33,905 --> 00:34:35,140
Okay, sorry.
788
00:34:35,240 --> 00:34:37,509
I just--I just don't like
hearing you blame yourself
789
00:34:37,609 --> 00:34:39,978
-for the guy's behavior.
-Yeah, I know.
790
00:34:40,078 --> 00:34:41,813
But I can take responsibility
for how I respond
791
00:34:41,913 --> 00:34:45,417
-and my actions.
-Sure. Which is...
792
00:34:45,517 --> 00:34:48,253
why you should tell him,
the sooner the better.
793
00:34:48,353 --> 00:34:50,255
Yes, and I'm going to.
794
00:34:50,355 --> 00:34:52,057
I will. At lunch.
795
00:34:52,157 --> 00:34:55,794
Okay, and you'll tell him
about
796
00:34:55,894 --> 00:34:59,164
giving back Newman Media then?
797
00:34:59,264 --> 00:35:01,866
Well, yeah. Do I have a choice?
798
00:35:02,867 --> 00:35:05,303
You couldn't go five minutes,
Billy,
799
00:35:05,403 --> 00:35:07,205
without accusing me of
something?
800
00:35:07,305 --> 00:35:09,107
So you're not gonna
answer the question?
801
00:35:09,207 --> 00:35:12,143
Is it that impossible for you
to just come to Chancellor
802
00:35:12,243 --> 00:35:14,713
and work for me
and just do the job?
803
00:35:14,813 --> 00:35:17,549
-I already said yes, Cane.
-Yeah, but for your own reasons.
804
00:35:17,649 --> 00:35:19,918
And they have nothing to do with
why I wanted to bring you on
805
00:35:20,018 --> 00:35:21,319
and everything to do with
806
00:35:21,419 --> 00:35:23,355
why people told me
not to hire you, Billy.
807
00:35:23,455 --> 00:35:25,590
Listen to me.
Jill is hiding something.
808
00:35:25,690 --> 00:35:29,494
I know it. I am not
the screwup she says I am.
809
00:35:29,594 --> 00:35:32,197
She's allowed me to stay angry
with her for many years
810
00:35:32,297 --> 00:35:33,898
because she has something
811
00:35:33,999 --> 00:35:37,202
that she wants to
keep hidden from me.
812
00:35:37,302 --> 00:35:39,571
And it's big.
813
00:35:47,779 --> 00:35:49,714
Next week on
"The Young and the Restless."
814
00:35:49,814 --> 00:35:51,216
You made me CEO of Chancellor,
815
00:35:51,316 --> 00:35:52,751
and now you've invited me over.
816
00:35:52,851 --> 00:35:54,152
If I didn't know any better,
817
00:35:54,252 --> 00:35:56,488
I'd think you were starting
to like me.
818
00:35:57,589 --> 00:35:59,324
You look like
you could use a friend.
819
00:35:59,424 --> 00:36:01,760
Settle for me?
820
00:36:01,860 --> 00:36:04,162
We did it. We got it off.
821
00:36:04,262 --> 00:36:06,431
You're free as a bird.
