00:00:02,436 --> 00:00:04,271
VICTOR: I love this omelet. Mmm.
2
00:00:04,371 --> 00:00:06,540
How's yours?
3
00:00:09,176 --> 00:00:10,911
What? Disappointing or what?
4
00:00:11,011 --> 00:00:12,379
-What's wrong?
-Oh, no.
5
00:00:12,479 --> 00:00:16,583
No. I'm just marveling
at the amazing colors
6
00:00:16,683 --> 00:00:18,819
in my fruit salad,
of all things.
7
00:00:18,919 --> 00:00:19,953
-Oh.
-[giggles]
8
00:00:20,053 --> 00:00:22,422
Well, you know,
your doctor tells me
9
00:00:22,523 --> 00:00:25,459
that you have many more years...
10
00:00:25,559 --> 00:00:28,495
where you can enjoy
the various colors.
11
00:00:30,998 --> 00:00:33,634
Thank God the surgery
was a success.
12
00:00:33,734 --> 00:00:36,470
I mean, you were right
when you told me
13
00:00:36,570 --> 00:00:39,006
my condition was temporary,
but...
14
00:00:39,106 --> 00:00:41,074
I couldn't believe it.
15
00:00:41,174 --> 00:00:44,378
I-I just didn't dare have hope.
16
00:00:44,478 --> 00:00:48,048
I was worried that
the worst would happen.
17
00:00:48,148 --> 00:00:50,817
But it didn't.
I knew it wouldn't.
18
00:00:52,119 --> 00:00:54,321
I can only hope
that Nicholas comes back
19
00:00:54,421 --> 00:00:57,391
from what he's facing
feeling like I do.
20
00:00:57,491 --> 00:01:00,394
It broke my heart
seeing him this morning,
21
00:01:00,494 --> 00:01:03,130
so sad and defeated.
22
00:01:04,097 --> 00:01:05,599
Breaks my heart as well.
23
00:01:07,467 --> 00:01:09,069
I think the only good thing is
24
00:01:09,169 --> 00:01:12,172
that he went to rehab
by himself, you know?
25
00:01:12,272 --> 00:01:14,241
That means that
he'll be home soon,
26
00:01:14,341 --> 00:01:17,244
healed and healthy.
27
00:01:17,344 --> 00:01:19,513
Be honest, Victor.
28
00:01:19,613 --> 00:01:22,449
You're just as worried about
our son as I am.
29
00:01:24,184 --> 00:01:26,787
I am, indeed.
30
00:01:32,826 --> 00:01:34,528
Oh, my gosh, it's late.
31
00:01:34,628 --> 00:01:37,297
It's been so long
since I've slept in like this.
32
00:01:37,397 --> 00:01:40,167
We were up most of the night.
33
00:01:46,773 --> 00:01:48,842
Oh, Matt, where are you?
34
00:01:51,511 --> 00:01:54,181
Did you leave town already?
35
00:02:00,087 --> 00:02:05,025
♪♪
36
00:02:33,153 --> 00:02:34,621
NOAH: Let me guess.
37
00:02:34,721 --> 00:02:36,223
Mulberry muffins?
38
00:02:36,323 --> 00:02:37,658
Very good.
39
00:02:37,758 --> 00:02:39,726
Special request from Dad?
40
00:02:39,826 --> 00:02:41,261
How did you know?
41
00:02:41,361 --> 00:02:42,896
Oh, I saw them back on the menu
42
00:02:42,996 --> 00:02:45,232
and I know he was totally
obsessed.
43
00:02:45,332 --> 00:02:47,534
Well, I'm sure
he wouldn't notice
44
00:02:47,634 --> 00:02:50,537
if I kept one aside for you.
45
00:02:50,637 --> 00:02:53,173
Thanks, but I'm not that hungry.
46
00:02:53,273 --> 00:02:55,609
What's wrong?
47
00:02:55,709 --> 00:02:57,678
What makes you think
something's wrong?
48
00:02:57,778 --> 00:02:59,546
Well, I usually have to
put up a fight
49
00:02:59,646 --> 00:03:01,982
to keep you from stealing
one of these.
50
00:03:02,082 --> 00:03:03,483
What is wrong, Noah?
51
00:03:05,018 --> 00:03:08,155
What it always has been lately.
Matt.
52
00:03:09,423 --> 00:03:11,458
What has he done now?
53
00:03:11,558 --> 00:03:15,962
I'm afraid he's using
his history with Sienna to...
54
00:03:16,063 --> 00:03:17,864
play at her guilt
and convince her
55
00:03:17,964 --> 00:03:19,866
that this kindler, gentler
man he is now
56
00:03:19,966 --> 00:03:21,768
deserves a second chance.
57
00:03:21,868 --> 00:03:24,204
Sienna is way too level-headed
58
00:03:24,304 --> 00:03:26,540
to fall for
Matt's manipulations.
59
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:29,576
I mean, you didn't hear the way
she talked about him, Mom.
60
00:03:29,676 --> 00:03:31,845
I mean, she actually
told me stories
61
00:03:31,945 --> 00:03:35,148
from their past about Matt
showing basic human decency
62
00:03:35,248 --> 00:03:36,516
like she was trying to
convince me
63
00:03:36,616 --> 00:03:38,985
that even back then
he wasn't all bad.
64
00:03:39,086 --> 00:03:41,955
Well, I can see
where that would worry you.
65
00:03:42,055 --> 00:03:45,659
Especially considering
all that Sienna knows
66
00:03:45,759 --> 00:03:48,095
about what Matt has put
this family through,
67
00:03:48,195 --> 00:03:50,997
not to mention
how he's hurt her.
68
00:03:51,098 --> 00:03:53,100
It almost feels like
he's already won her over
69
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,103
and...that scares
the hell out of me.
70
00:03:59,973 --> 00:04:01,374
[door opens]
71
00:04:01,475 --> 00:04:04,144
Hey, Noah, I'm going over some
receipts and, uh, looks like
72
00:04:04,244 --> 00:04:07,013
we're gonna need to order
another six cases of the malt--
73
00:04:07,114 --> 00:04:09,816
You really need to start
locking that door.
74
00:04:12,819 --> 00:04:14,187
You know, the way that, uh,
75
00:04:14,287 --> 00:04:15,956
you stormed out of here
the other night,
76
00:04:16,056 --> 00:04:18,158
I thought that
you'd be long gone by now.
77
00:04:19,926 --> 00:04:22,229
You on your way outta town?
You come to say goodbye?
78
00:04:22,329 --> 00:04:25,098
Actually, I came to ask a favor.
79
00:04:32,239 --> 00:04:34,407
For his whole life,
Nicholas has always been
80
00:04:34,508 --> 00:04:37,144
strong and confident.
81
00:04:37,244 --> 00:04:38,879
Fearless.
82
00:04:38,979 --> 00:04:41,548
This morning,
he just seemed broken.
83
00:04:42,549 --> 00:04:44,684
Obviously,
this is taking a toll on him.
84
00:04:44,785 --> 00:04:48,889
Well, he's still in the grips
of his addiction, you know?
85
00:04:48,989 --> 00:04:53,693
I mean, I'm not surprised
that he feels not himself.
86
00:04:54,661 --> 00:04:55,829
This isn't the first time
87
00:04:55,929 --> 00:04:58,465
you've had to deal with
something like this
88
00:04:58,565 --> 00:05:00,767
because of me.
89
00:05:00,867 --> 00:05:04,838
I'm sorry I put you through
that, more than once.
90
00:05:06,873 --> 00:05:09,075
Sweetheart, there's nothing
to be sorry for, okay?
91
00:05:09,176 --> 00:05:10,510
But I gotta tell you,
92
00:05:10,610 --> 00:05:12,946
to sit at home and think
that one of your loved ones
93
00:05:13,046 --> 00:05:15,582
is out there by themselves...
94
00:05:15,682 --> 00:05:18,185
fighting their addiction
95
00:05:18,285 --> 00:05:20,220
all on their own...
96
00:05:21,721 --> 00:05:23,390
That makes me very sad.
97
00:05:23,490 --> 00:05:24,991
Well, I'm sure he wasn't happy
98
00:05:25,091 --> 00:05:26,793
that we surprised him
this morning,
99
00:05:26,893 --> 00:05:28,628
and that's my fault.
100
00:05:28,728 --> 00:05:31,765
I thought my good news
would give him a boost.
101
00:05:33,300 --> 00:05:35,302
I hope he's not too upset
with me.
102
00:05:35,402 --> 00:05:37,704
Why would he be?
I think it helped him
103
00:05:37,804 --> 00:05:40,173
to hear that
you got over your addiction
104
00:05:40,273 --> 00:05:43,510
and the news
that you regained your sight.
105
00:05:43,610 --> 00:05:45,612
I hope you're right.
106
00:05:45,712 --> 00:05:47,314
I know I'm right.
107
00:05:48,548 --> 00:05:51,318
I think we should also
be happy about the fact
108
00:05:51,418 --> 00:05:53,787
that he chose voluntarily
109
00:05:53,887 --> 00:05:55,689
to go to that rehab place.
110
00:05:55,789 --> 00:05:57,691
You're right.
111
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:02,229
What else is troubling you?
112
00:06:04,397 --> 00:06:06,333
I asked you a question
last night, Victor,
113
00:06:06,433 --> 00:06:08,935
and you didn't answer me.
114
00:06:09,035 --> 00:06:12,105
Now that my vision has returned,
115
00:06:12,205 --> 00:06:15,575
where do things stand
between you and me?
116
00:06:19,613 --> 00:06:21,982
Matt, a-are you in here?
117
00:06:22,082 --> 00:06:23,717
[huffs]
118
00:06:23,817 --> 00:06:25,552
Wow.
119
00:06:25,652 --> 00:06:27,921
He didn't even leave a note.
120
00:06:29,856 --> 00:06:32,592
Or a text.
No one leaves notes anymore.
121
00:06:32,692 --> 00:06:35,629
But maybe a text? No. No.
122
00:06:35,729 --> 00:06:37,330
Ah.
123
00:06:38,665 --> 00:06:40,200
I was really hoping
124
00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:44,037
that Matt would finally
be gone this time, for good.
125
00:06:44,137 --> 00:06:46,573
What if he was just floating
the idea,
126
00:06:46,673 --> 00:06:48,842
hoping that someone
would ask him to stay?
127
00:06:48,942 --> 00:06:50,810
Someone like Sienna?
128
00:06:50,911 --> 00:06:52,979
You don't really think
he's hoping for
129
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:55,048
a reconciliation with her,
do you?
130
00:06:55,148 --> 00:06:57,717
I don't know what to think
right now, Mom.
131
00:06:57,817 --> 00:07:00,086
I just know that lately
she's been pretty conflicted.
132
00:07:00,186 --> 00:07:03,723
And I can't blame her.
I mean, it wasn't that long ago
133
00:07:03,823 --> 00:07:06,660
that she was fully committed
to the guy.
134
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,030
And then it all fell apart,
and not just because she met me.
135
00:07:10,130 --> 00:07:12,299
You know, it's because
she found out the truth
136
00:07:12,399 --> 00:07:14,200
about the man she married.
137
00:07:14,301 --> 00:07:19,205
Well, it's never easy to accept
the bad decisions we've made,
138
00:07:19,306 --> 00:07:22,142
even if we didn't know better
at the time we made them.
139
00:07:22,242 --> 00:07:24,344
I'm sure Sienna feels guilty
140
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:26,212
for not seeing Matt's dark side
sooner,
141
00:07:26,313 --> 00:07:29,649
and I know she feels responsible
for what he did to her and me.
142
00:07:30,917 --> 00:07:34,521
She must also know that you
don't blame her for any of that.
143
00:07:34,621 --> 00:07:36,790
Yeah, in her rational mind,
she does.
144
00:07:36,890 --> 00:07:40,460
But deep down,
she still blames herself.
145
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,662
It's almost like
by convincing herself
146
00:07:42,762 --> 00:07:44,998
that he wasn't all that bad
back then
147
00:07:45,098 --> 00:07:47,300
and believing that he really
has changed now
148
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,903
she's absolving herself
of the guilt that she felt
149
00:07:50,003 --> 00:07:51,905
over all the stuff
that he'd done.
150
00:07:52,005 --> 00:07:55,275
Well, if it eases
her conscience,
151
00:07:55,375 --> 00:07:56,776
that's a good thing.
152
00:07:56,876 --> 00:07:59,379
No, no. Cutting Matt any slack
is not good,
153
00:07:59,479 --> 00:08:00,647
and it can be dangerous.
154
00:08:00,747 --> 00:08:02,182
You know that
better than anyone.
155
00:08:02,282 --> 00:08:04,517
Unfortunately, I do.
156
00:08:05,785 --> 00:08:07,921
I'm worried that Sienna
will let her guard down,
157
00:08:08,021 --> 00:08:09,756
if she hasn't already
158
00:08:09,856 --> 00:08:12,258
and that it's gonna
get to a point
159
00:08:12,359 --> 00:08:14,427
that Matt is gonna have to
do something horrible just to
160
00:08:14,527 --> 00:08:17,397
snap her out of believing
that he's a changed man.
161
00:08:17,497 --> 00:08:19,265
Let's hope
it doesn't come to that.
162
00:08:19,366 --> 00:08:20,767
Well, it won't...
163
00:08:20,867 --> 00:08:22,569
if he leaves town
like he said he would.
164
00:08:22,669 --> 00:08:25,772
Unfortunately, what Matt says
and what Matt does
165
00:08:25,872 --> 00:08:27,841
-are two different things.
-Yeah, well,
166
00:08:27,941 --> 00:08:30,510
maybe it's about time
someone held him to his word.
167
00:08:30,610 --> 00:08:32,579
And if he still doesn't go,
168
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,115
maybe I'll just force
the issue myself.
169
00:08:36,683 --> 00:08:39,786
You need a favor from me? Ha.
170
00:08:39,886 --> 00:08:41,287
What do you need?
171
00:08:42,389 --> 00:08:44,357
Do you mind if I sit?
172
00:08:49,029 --> 00:08:51,731
So, Noah...
173
00:08:51,831 --> 00:08:54,734
he, uh, he really flipped out
on me, you know,
174
00:08:54,834 --> 00:08:56,936
after he saw me talking to you.
175
00:08:57,037 --> 00:09:00,473
And it's just I-I really thought
that when you and I were talking
176
00:09:00,573 --> 00:09:03,443
in that conversation,
we were in a better place.
177
00:09:04,644 --> 00:09:07,414
I think you thought
the same thing, didn't you?
178
00:09:07,514 --> 00:09:09,916
Anyway, Noah storms in here
179
00:09:10,016 --> 00:09:13,119
and he starts accusing me
of harassing you.
180
00:09:13,219 --> 00:09:15,755
He was being protective of me.
181
00:09:15,855 --> 00:09:18,324
Right, and I don't blame him.
I mean, in his mind
182
00:09:18,425 --> 00:09:21,127
I'm still the same monster
that I've always been.
183
00:09:21,227 --> 00:09:24,230
And I'm sure you've had
your doubts, but...
184
00:09:24,330 --> 00:09:26,733
am I wrong or
185
00:09:26,833 --> 00:09:28,868
did we agree that,
186
00:09:28,968 --> 00:09:32,872
you know, our life together
I wasn't always a total creep?
187
00:09:34,941 --> 00:09:36,443
You weren't wrong.
188
00:09:36,543 --> 00:09:39,045
And what a relief it is to...
189
00:09:39,145 --> 00:09:41,347
to know that there were
190
00:09:41,448 --> 00:09:43,716
at least one or two moments
in our life together
191
00:09:43,817 --> 00:09:46,019
that I'm not ashamed of.
192
00:09:46,119 --> 00:09:47,787
For me too.
193
00:09:47,887 --> 00:09:50,056
Thank you for saying that.
194
00:09:51,224 --> 00:09:53,593
And, uh,
I guess I was just hoping
195
00:09:53,693 --> 00:09:55,495
that since you were able to
afford me such grace
196
00:09:55,595 --> 00:09:58,298
that maybe Noah and his parents
now might be able
197
00:09:58,398 --> 00:10:00,133
to follow your lead
and do the same.
198
00:10:01,234 --> 00:10:03,436
You can't blame them.
199
00:10:03,536 --> 00:10:06,239
You have been their worst
recurring nightmare.
200
00:10:06,339 --> 00:10:08,741
Right. But when I say
that I'm gonna leave town,
201
00:10:08,842 --> 00:10:10,710
they just jump on that
and they let me know
202
00:10:10,810 --> 00:10:14,781
in no uncertain terms
that no matter how much I do,
203
00:10:14,881 --> 00:10:16,850
no matter how hard I try
and prove to everybody
204
00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,219
that I'm not the same monster
that I've always been,
205
00:10:19,319 --> 00:10:21,955
they will never stop
looking at me that way.
206
00:10:22,055 --> 00:10:25,358
And I just--I flipped out
and I'm sorry.
207
00:10:25,458 --> 00:10:28,528
I apologize.
I'm not proud of how I acted.
208
00:10:28,628 --> 00:10:31,664
And I made some pretty extreme
declarations.
209
00:10:31,764 --> 00:10:34,200
One of them was that
you were gonna disappear.
210
00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:36,436
You were gonna leave town
and never come back.
211
00:10:36,536 --> 00:10:38,972
-So was any of that true?
-Yeah, well, it was true
212
00:10:39,072 --> 00:10:41,141
in the moment, but then I've
had some time to cool off
213
00:10:41,241 --> 00:10:44,511
and I've made
an even bigger revelation.
214
00:10:44,611 --> 00:10:46,346
I'm listening.
215
00:10:47,413 --> 00:10:50,250
I don't need to sacrifice
my entire life
216
00:10:50,350 --> 00:10:52,085
to please the Newmans
or anybody else,
217
00:10:52,185 --> 00:10:54,854
especially when
it's never gonna work.
218
00:10:54,954 --> 00:10:57,790
And I have met some people
in this town
219
00:10:57,891 --> 00:11:02,529
who look at me, and they don't
see a walking horror show.
220
00:11:03,730 --> 00:11:05,899
What are you saying?
221
00:11:05,999 --> 00:11:09,802
I think I'm gonna stick around
Genoa City after all.
222
00:11:16,643 --> 00:11:18,578
-Is this some kind of joke?
-No.
223
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:20,613
-I thought that you--
-That I wanted to leave town.
224
00:11:20,713 --> 00:11:23,216
I did, but I changed my mind.
But my problem is
225
00:11:23,316 --> 00:11:25,185
no matter how hard I try
and avoid the Newmans,
226
00:11:25,285 --> 00:11:27,287
they're never gonna stop
trying to drive me away.
227
00:11:27,387 --> 00:11:30,223
But my gut tells me
228
00:11:30,323 --> 00:11:32,926
that you believe
the change in me is sincere,
229
00:11:33,026 --> 00:11:34,961
and I swear to you that it is.
230
00:11:35,061 --> 00:11:37,764
And what does it matter
if I believe you or not?
231
00:11:37,864 --> 00:11:39,265
Well, my hope is that you can
232
00:11:39,365 --> 00:11:40,900
convince Noah
and the rest of them
233
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,103
to at least consider that
you might be right about me.
234
00:11:44,204 --> 00:11:46,072
Okay, now I know this is a joke.
235
00:11:46,172 --> 00:11:48,708
No. I'm asking you to please--
236
00:11:48,808 --> 00:11:51,778
if you could try and reassure
the Newmans
237
00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:53,546
that I'm not a threat.
238
00:11:53,646 --> 00:11:55,648
Not to Noah, not to any of them.
Not to you.
239
00:11:55,748 --> 00:11:57,884
Not to anyone, not anymore.
240
00:11:57,984 --> 00:12:00,019
And...
241
00:12:00,119 --> 00:12:03,923
I just wanna live my life.
I just wanna be left alone.
242
00:12:04,023 --> 00:12:06,693
Please, Sienna,
I'd be forever grateful.
243
00:12:07,994 --> 00:12:10,196
What makes you think
244
00:12:10,296 --> 00:12:12,432
that I could persuade them
245
00:12:12,532 --> 00:12:15,501
to believe something that you
couldn't convince them yourself?
246
00:12:15,602 --> 00:12:17,270
Well, because if the words
come from somebody
247
00:12:17,370 --> 00:12:18,771
that they care about
and they respect,
248
00:12:18,871 --> 00:12:20,540
then they might hear them.
249
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,141
You're giving me
too much credit.
250
00:12:22,242 --> 00:12:24,377
No. You're one of them now.
251
00:12:24,477 --> 00:12:27,347
You are part of the Newman
adopted family.
252
00:12:27,447 --> 00:12:28,815
And they're never gonna
listen to me,
253
00:12:28,915 --> 00:12:31,651
but they might listen to you.
254
00:12:31,751 --> 00:12:33,987
Come on, what do you say,
please? Just...
255
00:12:35,088 --> 00:12:36,723
Can you help me out?
256
00:12:38,024 --> 00:12:40,793
You're not going to have to
force Matt's hand
257
00:12:40,893 --> 00:12:42,829
to leave Genoa City.
258
00:12:42,929 --> 00:12:45,398
That man is a lot of things,
but he's not stupid.
259
00:12:45,498 --> 00:12:47,800
He's not gonna stick around here
surrounded by people
260
00:12:47,900 --> 00:12:50,270
who absolutely despise him.
261
00:12:50,370 --> 00:12:52,038
He knows that's not good
for his health.
262
00:12:52,138 --> 00:12:54,107
I wish you were right.
263
00:12:54,207 --> 00:12:55,642
But despite what he said about
264
00:12:55,742 --> 00:12:57,910
not being able to get out of
town fast enough,
265
00:12:58,011 --> 00:13:00,113
he has yet to make
a single move to go.
266
00:13:00,213 --> 00:13:02,015
How do you know that?
267
00:13:02,115 --> 00:13:03,549
Grandpa's security team told me.
268
00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:06,653
According to them,
Matt has been in his room
269
00:13:06,753 --> 00:13:08,321
at the ranch since last night,
270
00:13:08,421 --> 00:13:10,490
and he hasn't made
a single move,
271
00:13:10,590 --> 00:13:11,991
no one's seen him packing,
272
00:13:12,091 --> 00:13:15,061
and he hasn't said a single word
to anyone about leaving town.
273
00:13:15,161 --> 00:13:19,098
So all that talk about
starting a new life
274
00:13:19,198 --> 00:13:20,867
as far away from here
as possible--
275
00:13:20,967 --> 00:13:23,036
that was just for show?
276
00:13:23,136 --> 00:13:24,404
Maybe.
277
00:13:24,504 --> 00:13:26,773
Dad said that night that
he wasn't buying any of it.
278
00:13:26,873 --> 00:13:29,108
And looks like he was right.
279
00:13:29,208 --> 00:13:30,910
I wanted to tell him
what I had heard,
280
00:13:31,010 --> 00:13:33,646
but I haven't been able
to get ahold of him.
281
00:13:33,746 --> 00:13:35,882
Well, there's a reason for that.
282
00:13:37,083 --> 00:13:38,951
What is it? Is Dad okay?
283
00:13:39,052 --> 00:13:40,620
He will be.
284
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,023
I was waiting for him to give me
the go-ahead to tell you,
285
00:13:44,123 --> 00:13:46,159
which he did
right before you got here.
286
00:13:46,259 --> 00:13:48,094
Tell me what? What's going on?
287
00:13:48,194 --> 00:13:49,862
Um...
288
00:13:49,962 --> 00:13:53,166
your father has been struggling
with his addiction
289
00:13:53,266 --> 00:13:54,867
these past few weeks.
290
00:13:56,636 --> 00:13:59,872
But it seemed like
he was doing so much better.
291
00:13:59,972 --> 00:14:03,343
Well, you know, he was,
but you know your dad.
292
00:14:03,443 --> 00:14:06,312
He has a way of burying
his feelings
293
00:14:06,412 --> 00:14:08,381
so that nobody worries
about him.
294
00:14:08,481 --> 00:14:12,618
Well, in this case, his feelings
caught up with him.
295
00:14:12,719 --> 00:14:17,757
That's why he checked himself
into a rehab center last night.
296
00:14:21,127 --> 00:14:25,031
I think right now
we should be very grateful
297
00:14:25,131 --> 00:14:27,667
that you regained your sight.
298
00:14:27,767 --> 00:14:30,303
And then we should focus
on our son's recovery.
299
00:14:30,403 --> 00:14:32,972
Oh, I am beyond grateful.
300
00:14:34,674 --> 00:14:38,611
All I wanna do is focus on
helping Nicholas recover.
301
00:14:39,846 --> 00:14:43,416
But I can't do that while the
rest of my life is in limbo.
302
00:14:44,617 --> 00:14:47,987
This morning has been
so great...
303
00:14:48,087 --> 00:14:50,523
you and me having
breakfast together,
304
00:14:50,623 --> 00:14:52,992
coming together for our son.
305
00:14:53,092 --> 00:14:55,194
It all seems so right.
306
00:14:55,294 --> 00:14:58,498
But what's really happening is
307
00:14:58,598 --> 00:15:01,601
we're falling into
our old familiar patterns
308
00:15:01,701 --> 00:15:04,737
without dealing with
what broke us up.
309
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:09,642
We're ignoring the fact
that just a few weeks ago
310
00:15:09,742 --> 00:15:13,646
our marriage broke into
a million pieces.
311
00:15:17,683 --> 00:15:19,886
So what do you want me to say?
312
00:15:21,521 --> 00:15:24,357
I want you to tell me
how you feel.
313
00:15:32,365 --> 00:15:34,100
Well, my goodness,
look at you two.
314
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,002
This is a surprise.
315
00:15:36,102 --> 00:15:38,438
I'm sorry. We are in the middle
of a private conversation.
316
00:15:38,538 --> 00:15:40,773
Well, I didn't even realize
you two were speaking again.
317
00:15:40,873 --> 00:15:43,309
My goodness.
Well, this won't take long.
318
00:15:43,409 --> 00:15:46,078
I just came here
to inform your husband
319
00:15:46,179 --> 00:15:48,781
he won't get away with
his latest sabotage.
320
00:15:58,224 --> 00:16:01,494
I thought
Dad was past all of this.
321
00:16:01,594 --> 00:16:05,531
Noah, your father is never
going to be past this.
322
00:16:05,631 --> 00:16:08,568
This is something that he is
going to have to manage
323
00:16:08,668 --> 00:16:10,470
the rest of his life.
324
00:16:10,570 --> 00:16:12,438
Like Grandma
with her alcoholism?
325
00:16:12,538 --> 00:16:14,340
I know she still goes to
meetings.
326
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,975
Exactly.
327
00:16:16,075 --> 00:16:17,643
But the good news is
328
00:16:17,743 --> 00:16:21,447
Nick has been very proactive
about getting help.
329
00:16:21,547 --> 00:16:24,083
And the fact that he checked
himself into rehab--
330
00:16:24,183 --> 00:16:25,751
that's a very good sign.
331
00:16:25,852 --> 00:16:27,687
Why didn't you tell me
what was going on?
332
00:16:27,787 --> 00:16:30,056
I would have been there
to offer my support.
333
00:16:30,156 --> 00:16:32,225
He didn't want to take you
away from the club.
334
00:16:32,325 --> 00:16:34,193
He is more important
than the club.
335
00:16:34,293 --> 00:16:36,863
Once he had decided
to admit himself,
336
00:16:36,963 --> 00:16:39,365
any delay would have left
the door open
337
00:16:39,465 --> 00:16:41,801
for him to change his mind.
338
00:16:41,901 --> 00:16:43,970
Can I at least go see him?
339
00:16:44,070 --> 00:16:46,606
He's asked that we give him
some time, a few days.
340
00:16:46,706 --> 00:16:49,709
Apparently,
your grandparents stopped by
341
00:16:49,809 --> 00:16:53,012
to see him this morning and
it completely blindsided him.
342
00:16:53,112 --> 00:16:55,314
He wasn't expecting
to see anyone so soon.
343
00:16:55,414 --> 00:16:57,617
I just can't believe
Dad got hooked so fast.
344
00:16:57,717 --> 00:17:00,820
I mean,
this all goes back to Matt.
345
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,688
If he hadn't have caused
the crash,
346
00:17:02,788 --> 00:17:05,157
Dad wouldn't have ended up in
the hospital with a busted leg.
347
00:17:05,258 --> 00:17:09,161
Well, there's nothing
we can do about that now.
348
00:17:09,262 --> 00:17:10,897
I know.
It's just another reminder
349
00:17:10,997 --> 00:17:12,832
that no matter how sorry
Matt suddenly is
350
00:17:12,932 --> 00:17:16,335
for the hell he's put our family
through, the man is toxic.
351
00:17:16,435 --> 00:17:18,237
He needs to go.
352
00:17:18,337 --> 00:17:20,172
Now.
353
00:17:20,273 --> 00:17:24,010
Exactly what is this sabotage
you're carrying on about?
354
00:17:24,110 --> 00:17:27,046
Are you having trouble
with the new company already?
355
00:17:27,146 --> 00:17:29,148
Oh, my goodness, Victor,
why would you think that?
356
00:17:29,248 --> 00:17:33,252
Oh, is it possibly because
when you handed me this company
357
00:17:33,352 --> 00:17:36,389
it had been so utterly decimated
358
00:17:36,489 --> 00:17:39,492
that there'd be nothing
worth salvaging?
359
00:17:39,592 --> 00:17:42,328
Now, I thought you enjoyed
a challenge.
360
00:17:42,428 --> 00:17:44,163
Oh, trust me, I do.
361
00:17:44,263 --> 00:17:47,934
And I intend to take Arabesque
to new levels
362
00:17:48,034 --> 00:17:49,869
and make it a powerhouse company
363
00:17:49,969 --> 00:17:51,671
that will give
Newman Enterprises
364
00:17:51,771 --> 00:17:54,440
-a run for its money.
-Oh, I'll be damned.
365
00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:56,208
Well, good luck to you.
366
00:17:56,309 --> 00:17:57,543
I don't need luck.
367
00:17:57,643 --> 00:17:59,745
-Uh-huh? Really?
-No.
368
00:17:59,845 --> 00:18:01,981
I beat you once.
I'll do it again.
369
00:18:02,081 --> 00:18:04,150
And I'll have the last laugh.
370
00:18:08,621 --> 00:18:10,156
Why you gave anything
to that woman
371
00:18:10,256 --> 00:18:12,491
after what she pulled
with Newman I do not know.
372
00:18:12,592 --> 00:18:15,161
[laughing] She is incorrigible.
373
00:18:15,261 --> 00:18:18,831
Sweetheart, she helped
save our son's life.
374
00:18:18,931 --> 00:18:21,734
Yes, and for that I am grateful,
but...
375
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:23,202
enough about her.
376
00:18:23,302 --> 00:18:25,805
The state of our marriage
is more important.
377
00:18:29,675 --> 00:18:31,944
It sounds dire.
378
00:18:32,044 --> 00:18:34,280
It could be.
379
00:18:34,380 --> 00:18:38,117
Will I be returning
to my suite upstairs or...
380
00:18:38,217 --> 00:18:40,553
am I coming home with you?
381
00:18:43,022 --> 00:18:46,459
You didn't even say goodbye,
Matt.
382
00:18:50,162 --> 00:18:51,797
You know what?
383
00:18:53,366 --> 00:18:55,267
You didn't have the decency
to say goodbye.
384
00:18:55,368 --> 00:18:57,570
I'm gonna make sure
you wish you had.
385
00:18:58,471 --> 00:19:00,272
Where are you, Matt?
386
00:19:00,373 --> 00:19:03,009
I deserve to know.
387
00:19:11,684 --> 00:19:13,519
You sell yourself short.
388
00:19:13,619 --> 00:19:16,255
You have way more sway over
people than you realize.
389
00:19:16,355 --> 00:19:18,958
[phone chimes]
390
00:19:23,029 --> 00:19:24,497
You need to answer that?
391
00:19:24,597 --> 00:19:26,565
This is an important
conversation.
392
00:19:26,666 --> 00:19:29,135
Listen, I don't know why
you think
393
00:19:29,235 --> 00:19:31,437
that I can change
anyone's mind about anything.
394
00:19:31,537 --> 00:19:33,272
I've only been here
a few months.
395
00:19:33,372 --> 00:19:35,374
The Newmans are just now
starting to accept me.
396
00:19:35,474 --> 00:19:37,276
Noah loves you.
397
00:19:39,345 --> 00:19:42,081
And that means that...
398
00:19:42,181 --> 00:19:44,750
he respects what you think
and he listens to you
399
00:19:44,850 --> 00:19:48,054
and he cares about how you feel.
400
00:19:48,154 --> 00:19:51,323
And I say that without
any anger, and I mean it.
401
00:19:51,424 --> 00:19:52,525
I'm serious.
402
00:19:55,127 --> 00:19:57,530
You know, believe it or not,
I actually...
403
00:19:57,630 --> 00:19:59,198
did talk to Noah about you.
404
00:19:59,298 --> 00:20:00,633
What did you say?
405
00:20:00,733 --> 00:20:03,969
I told him I thought
you were telling the truth.
406
00:20:04,070 --> 00:20:06,739
-And?
-And he didn't believe it.
407
00:20:06,839 --> 00:20:10,142
So me pleading your case
isn't gonna sit well with him.
408
00:20:11,110 --> 00:20:12,478
I understand your reluctance,
409
00:20:12,578 --> 00:20:14,346
but you're kinda
my last hope here.
410
00:20:14,447 --> 00:20:16,649
Okay, well, this is not
my job to fix. It's yours.
411
00:20:16,749 --> 00:20:18,984
Sienna, I have to live with
the horror of all of the things
412
00:20:19,085 --> 00:20:20,953
that I've done for
the rest of my life every day.
413
00:20:21,053 --> 00:20:23,122
But I have a chance right now
414
00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:24,757
of being happy.
415
00:20:25,691 --> 00:20:27,259
I had that chance with you.
416
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,696
No, you didn't. We--we didn't.
417
00:20:30,796 --> 00:20:32,932
-All we had was lies.
-Right.
418
00:20:33,032 --> 00:20:35,901
But we had a chance,
and I blew it.
419
00:20:36,001 --> 00:20:37,503
Because I was angry all the time
420
00:20:37,603 --> 00:20:39,138
and I thought I was better
than everybody
421
00:20:39,238 --> 00:20:41,607
and I didn't care who I hurt
to get what I wanted.
422
00:20:41,707 --> 00:20:44,610
But I'm not doing that
right now.
423
00:20:44,710 --> 00:20:47,580
And I just...I just want peace.
424
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,315
And not just for me.
I want that for you.
425
00:20:49,415 --> 00:20:50,816
-I want that for everyone.
-Okay, you know what,
426
00:20:50,916 --> 00:20:52,251
I will see what I can do,
all right?
427
00:20:52,351 --> 00:20:54,520
-Thank you. I appreciate that.
-But listen to me.
428
00:20:54,620 --> 00:20:57,623
If you are playing me the way
that Noah thinks you are,
429
00:20:57,723 --> 00:20:59,425
-I swear to--
-I swear I'm not.
430
00:20:59,525 --> 00:21:00,826
Okay. You better not be.
431
00:21:00,926 --> 00:21:03,129
Because I almost
killed you once.
432
00:21:03,229 --> 00:21:06,265
And next time,
I will not be so clumsy.
433
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:16,308
I'm asking for your help
to put my past behind me
434
00:21:16,408 --> 00:21:18,077
and live my life without
constantly having to
435
00:21:18,177 --> 00:21:19,278
look over my shoulder.
436
00:21:19,378 --> 00:21:21,380
You know,
I wouldn't mind that either.
437
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,783
I get that and I know that's
because of me, and if I could
438
00:21:23,883 --> 00:21:25,751
go back and change everything,
I would, but I can't.
439
00:21:25,851 --> 00:21:27,686
All I can do is try to
do better moving forward.
440
00:21:27,787 --> 00:21:29,688
Okay, listen, I said that
I would try and help, okay?
441
00:21:29,789 --> 00:21:31,390
-Let it go.
-And I can't tell you
442
00:21:31,490 --> 00:21:33,626
how much I appreciate that
you would even consider that.
443
00:21:33,726 --> 00:21:35,394
Okay, you don't have to
throw me out. I'm leaving.
444
00:21:35,494 --> 00:21:37,029
I told you never
to come back here.
445
00:21:37,129 --> 00:21:39,532
-Yeah, it won't happen again.
-Yeah, no, you said
446
00:21:39,632 --> 00:21:41,300
you were leaving town
the first chance you got.
447
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,969
Well, in case you forgot,
we were all on board with that.
448
00:21:44,069 --> 00:21:46,906
No one wants you around here,
okay? Including Sienna.
449
00:21:47,006 --> 00:21:48,607
Yeah, like I said,
I'm outta here.
450
00:21:48,707 --> 00:21:50,242
Yeah, well, let me make
something crystal clear to you.
451
00:21:50,342 --> 00:21:52,211
Whether you change your mind
about leaving town or not,
452
00:21:52,311 --> 00:21:54,747
you're going.
I'll personally make sure of it.
453
00:21:54,847 --> 00:21:57,516
How 'bout I leave you alone
and you leave me alone
454
00:21:57,616 --> 00:21:59,451
and we all live our life
in peace?
455
00:21:59,552 --> 00:22:01,487
Get the hell outta here, man.
456
00:22:12,131 --> 00:22:13,766
Do you believe the nerve
of that creep
457
00:22:13,866 --> 00:22:16,235
coming back here
after I warned him to stay away?
458
00:22:17,203 --> 00:22:20,973
Please tell me he only came
to say his final goodbye.
459
00:22:22,541 --> 00:22:26,745
You know, I thought it was
abundantly clear where I stand.
460
00:22:26,846 --> 00:22:29,215
I wouldn't be asking
if it were.
461
00:22:29,315 --> 00:22:31,217
Of course I want you
to stay at the ranch.
462
00:22:31,317 --> 00:22:33,018
That's where you belong.
463
00:22:34,220 --> 00:22:36,222
But what about us?
464
00:22:36,322 --> 00:22:38,858
I mean, where do things stand?
465
00:22:38,958 --> 00:22:41,293
Do we still have a marriage?
466
00:22:41,393 --> 00:22:44,463
Or is Jack still an obstacle
between us?
467
00:22:45,397 --> 00:22:47,633
Will you please stop talking
about Jack Abbott?
468
00:22:49,835 --> 00:22:51,136
But I guess you never will,
will you?
469
00:22:51,237 --> 00:22:53,072
No, I won't.
470
00:22:54,340 --> 00:22:56,208
But I still love you.
471
00:22:56,308 --> 00:22:57,843
In that case,
I have two choices.
472
00:22:57,943 --> 00:23:01,480
Either I accept your friendship
with that loser,
473
00:23:01,580 --> 00:23:03,315
or...
474
00:23:03,415 --> 00:23:05,885
you and I will not have
a future together.
475
00:23:06,952 --> 00:23:08,487
There is a third choice.
476
00:23:08,587 --> 00:23:10,122
What's that?
477
00:23:10,222 --> 00:23:14,059
All you have to do
is say you were wrong.
478
00:23:18,864 --> 00:23:20,900
Seriously? Nothing.
479
00:23:22,768 --> 00:23:24,436
You know...
480
00:23:24,536 --> 00:23:26,639
You know what?
481
00:23:26,739 --> 00:23:30,509
You're gonna wish...
you're gonna wish...
482
00:23:30,609 --> 00:23:34,113
that you texted me.
483
00:23:34,213 --> 00:23:36,649
That's what you're gonna wish.
484
00:23:36,749 --> 00:23:39,518
You're gonna listen to me
whether you want to or not.
485
00:23:39,618 --> 00:23:41,887
In fact, I'm gonna
leave you a message
486
00:23:41,987 --> 00:23:43,756
that you will never,
ever forget.
487
00:23:45,991 --> 00:23:48,327
Hey, Matt! Hey, it's Phyllis.
488
00:23:48,427 --> 00:23:51,463
Uh, Phyllis, remember, uh,
the woman that you slept with
489
00:23:51,563 --> 00:23:53,632
that you just ghosted?
490
00:23:53,732 --> 00:23:55,601
I-I don't understand this.
491
00:23:55,701 --> 00:23:57,636
I don't--after everything
I've done for you,
492
00:23:57,736 --> 00:23:59,605
everything I promised
to do for you,
493
00:23:59,705 --> 00:24:03,042
everything I did for you
last night...hmm?
494
00:24:03,142 --> 00:24:04,176
Yeah.
495
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:08,447
Uh, you seemed to enjoy
yourself.
496
00:24:08,547 --> 00:24:10,616
And I-I...
497
00:24:10,716 --> 00:24:12,918
I thought that...
498
00:24:13,018 --> 00:24:15,654
there was something...[sighs]
499
00:24:15,754 --> 00:24:17,456
I'm so confused--
500
00:24:17,556 --> 00:24:20,159
some connection between us,
and it just...
501
00:24:21,994 --> 00:24:23,028
What happened?
502
00:24:23,929 --> 00:24:25,497
What happened?
503
00:24:25,597 --> 00:24:30,002
There's no note, there's no--
no message, no email.
504
00:24:30,102 --> 00:24:31,537
I mean, you can go--
505
00:24:34,039 --> 00:24:35,908
What happened to you?
506
00:24:36,008 --> 00:24:37,443
Good morning?
507
00:24:37,543 --> 00:24:40,646
No! No, it was a good morning,
508
00:24:40,746 --> 00:24:43,148
and then you just disappeared!
509
00:24:43,248 --> 00:24:44,683
You disappeared. You were gone!
510
00:24:44,783 --> 00:24:47,386
-Slow down.
-No, you slow down.
511
00:24:47,486 --> 00:24:50,990
You just took your bag
and you just bolted out
512
00:24:51,090 --> 00:24:52,524
at the crack of dawn?
513
00:24:52,624 --> 00:24:53,892
You finished?
514
00:24:53,993 --> 00:24:55,961
Well, I have a lot more to say.
515
00:24:56,061 --> 00:24:58,797
First of all, my duffle bag
is under your bed,
516
00:24:58,897 --> 00:25:01,333
and I put it there so that
it wouldn't be in the way.
517
00:25:01,433 --> 00:25:04,169
And I didn't say goodbye to you
because you were sleeping,
518
00:25:04,269 --> 00:25:06,472
and I don't know if you know
this about yourself, Phyllis,
519
00:25:06,572 --> 00:25:08,440
but when you're asleep,
520
00:25:08,540 --> 00:25:13,078
you have the face of a--
of a--of a really hot angel.
521
00:25:15,481 --> 00:25:17,249
I-I'm like a hot angel?
522
00:25:17,349 --> 00:25:18,917
-Yeah.
-Really?
523
00:25:19,018 --> 00:25:21,387
-And your bag is under my bed?
-Yeah, let's go upstairs
524
00:25:21,487 --> 00:25:23,489
and look--I'd love to see
the look on your hot angel face
525
00:25:23,589 --> 00:25:25,991
when you realize
it's still right there.
526
00:25:26,091 --> 00:25:27,993
-I thought you'd ghosted me.
-No, why would I do--
527
00:25:28,093 --> 00:25:29,595
last night was epic.
528
00:25:29,695 --> 00:25:32,197
You make a grown man hope
he never gets amnesia again.
529
00:25:32,297 --> 00:25:33,832
I wouldn't just cut out on you.
530
00:25:33,932 --> 00:25:35,768
I hate that you think
that I would.
531
00:25:35,868 --> 00:25:38,137
Uh, I didn't know what to think.
532
00:25:38,237 --> 00:25:40,105
-I like you.
-You do?
533
00:25:40,205 --> 00:25:41,940
-I do.
-O-okay.
534
00:25:42,041 --> 00:25:43,609
I like you.
535
00:25:43,709 --> 00:25:45,544
Cool.
536
00:25:47,613 --> 00:25:49,882
Don't--don't...you don't need
to listen to the voicemail
537
00:25:49,982 --> 00:25:51,984
I just left.
538
00:25:52,084 --> 00:25:54,753
[laughing] Oh, no, I think I do.
I think I really do!
539
00:25:54,853 --> 00:25:56,555
I need to hear the verbal
hit-job you dropped.
540
00:25:56,655 --> 00:25:58,123
I used just some strong
language, that's all.
541
00:25:58,223 --> 00:25:59,992
I'm sure. Okay.
Here's what's up.
542
00:26:00,092 --> 00:26:02,327
I spent the morning, because
I was so inspired by you,
543
00:26:02,428 --> 00:26:03,862
trying to put things in place
544
00:26:03,962 --> 00:26:05,964
so that I could build
a whole new life here,
545
00:26:06,065 --> 00:26:07,733
thanks to you.
546
00:26:09,535 --> 00:26:10,936
That's lovely.
547
00:26:12,471 --> 00:26:14,673
I was just thinking of
worst-case scenarios.
548
00:26:14,773 --> 00:26:16,708
That's all.
I've been here before.
549
00:26:16,809 --> 00:26:19,011
Yeah, no, well--not here.
550
00:26:20,579 --> 00:26:23,582
We're not anywhere dangerous.
Not with me.
551
00:26:25,250 --> 00:26:26,718
All right.
552
00:26:27,719 --> 00:26:29,621
What were the things
you were putting together?
553
00:26:29,721 --> 00:26:31,890
Oh, I had to check in
with an old friend.
554
00:26:31,990 --> 00:26:34,226
-You have friends?
-Well, I mean, technically
555
00:26:34,326 --> 00:26:37,896
she's more of an old wife
than an old friend, but...yeah.
556
00:26:37,996 --> 00:26:40,399
And she might just be
my salvation.
557
00:26:49,441 --> 00:26:52,444
Uh, so wait a second.
This is, um,
558
00:26:52,544 --> 00:26:54,313
this is your ex-wife
you're talking about?
559
00:26:54,413 --> 00:26:56,815
The one who tried to, um,
kill you in the desert
560
00:26:56,915 --> 00:26:59,284
-outside Vegas?
-Yeah, yeah. But that was before
561
00:26:59,384 --> 00:27:01,420
my personality shift
from the dark side.
562
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,188
And I actually think
that Sienna clobbering me
563
00:27:03,288 --> 00:27:05,290
is what triggered the
transformation to begin with.
564
00:27:05,390 --> 00:27:07,493
So what are you waiting for,
for her to...
565
00:27:07,593 --> 00:27:10,028
bash you in the head
with a bigger boulder?
566
00:27:10,129 --> 00:27:12,431
-No.
-On your road to redemption?
567
00:27:12,531 --> 00:27:14,032
-Done with all the boulders.
-Oh, okay.
568
00:27:14,133 --> 00:27:15,667
It's just that if
I'm gonna stay in town,
569
00:27:15,767 --> 00:27:19,304
I need to keep the Newmans
at bay, so I could use an ally.
570
00:27:19,404 --> 00:27:21,807
You think Sienna's your ally?
571
00:27:21,907 --> 00:27:23,809
Outside of you, I'm hoping.
She might be the only person
572
00:27:23,909 --> 00:27:25,911
in this world
that actually believes
573
00:27:26,011 --> 00:27:27,579
that my turnaround is sincere.
574
00:27:27,679 --> 00:27:30,682
-No.
-And since she's dating Noah,
575
00:27:30,782 --> 00:27:33,986
she might be able to convince
Noah and, in turn, the Newmans,
576
00:27:34,086 --> 00:27:36,088
to kind of live and let live
where I'm concerned.
577
00:27:36,188 --> 00:27:37,956
It's a fairy tale.
It won't hold up.
578
00:27:38,056 --> 00:27:40,559
-Why--why not?
-Because I know the Newmans.
579
00:27:40,659 --> 00:27:42,561
I've been down this road
with them.
580
00:27:42,661 --> 00:27:44,796
You know, once they decide
you're the enemy,
581
00:27:44,897 --> 00:27:46,765
they don't change their mind.
582
00:27:46,865 --> 00:27:48,400
You'd think saving Nick's life
583
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:50,536
would have absolved
some of our sins.
584
00:27:50,636 --> 00:27:53,639
Yeah, you'd think,
but it doesn't.
585
00:27:53,739 --> 00:27:55,440
I mean, I'm sure they've decided
586
00:27:55,541 --> 00:27:57,676
that you're the reason
that Nick overdosed.
587
00:27:57,776 --> 00:28:00,479
Well, maybe Sienna
can convince them otherwise.
588
00:28:00,579 --> 00:28:01,980
She won't.
589
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,384
She's aligned with the Newmans.
590
00:28:05,484 --> 00:28:07,986
Don't you understand?
She's part of them.
591
00:28:08,086 --> 00:28:11,523
She's not your ally.
This is my advice to you.
592
00:28:11,623 --> 00:28:14,059
Trust no one.
593
00:28:14,159 --> 00:28:16,128
Okay, why don't we just sit down
and we can talk about this.
594
00:28:16,228 --> 00:28:17,496
Damn it, Sienna,
stop protecting him.
595
00:28:17,596 --> 00:28:19,264
-That's not what I'm doing.
-Then why was he here?
596
00:28:19,364 --> 00:28:22,201
To apologize for flipping out
the other night.
597
00:28:22,301 --> 00:28:23,535
Did he also apologize
for not leaving town
598
00:28:23,635 --> 00:28:24,803
like he said he would?
599
00:28:24,903 --> 00:28:26,805
He admitted he may have
gone a little overboard
600
00:28:26,905 --> 00:28:29,274
with the talk of leaving town
and he felt bad about it.
601
00:28:29,374 --> 00:28:31,243
He is preying
on your good nature.
602
00:28:31,343 --> 00:28:32,878
He's taking advantage
of your big heart.
603
00:28:32,978 --> 00:28:34,846
Okay, you think
that I wouldn't know
604
00:28:34,947 --> 00:28:36,582
if somebody was playing me?
605
00:28:36,682 --> 00:28:39,251
-I didn't say that.
-No, you didn't have to. Okay.
606
00:28:39,351 --> 00:28:42,588
Listen to me. I understand why
he is a hot button for you
607
00:28:42,688 --> 00:28:44,990
because of everything that he
has done to you and your family,
608
00:28:45,090 --> 00:28:47,726
but I do not need you
coming in here,
609
00:28:47,826 --> 00:28:49,428
pretending to be a hero
610
00:28:49,528 --> 00:28:51,530
and throwing yourself
in between me and him
611
00:28:51,630 --> 00:28:53,665
when all we were doing
was talking!
612
00:28:53,765 --> 00:28:55,300
I can't believe
what I'm hearing right now.
613
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,402
No, we are talking about
the same man who tried to
614
00:28:57,502 --> 00:29:00,706
kill us both more than once,
who terrorized my mom,
615
00:29:00,806 --> 00:29:02,107
who got my dad addicted
to fentanyl,
616
00:29:02,207 --> 00:29:04,243
and you don't think
that I should be concerned
617
00:29:04,343 --> 00:29:05,811
to find you alone with him
again?
618
00:29:05,911 --> 00:29:07,946
-All right, I get it, Noah!
-No, I think if you did
619
00:29:08,046 --> 00:29:09,715
you wouldn't expect me
to just chill out
620
00:29:09,815 --> 00:29:11,850
when you've clearly gone soft
on this maniac!
621
00:29:11,950 --> 00:29:13,986
I mean, when did it go
from the two of us
622
00:29:14,086 --> 00:29:17,022
being in total sync on this to
you then giving me a hard time
623
00:29:17,122 --> 00:29:19,458
and defending Matt Clark?
624
00:29:21,827 --> 00:29:25,530
You see my siding with Jack
as a betrayal,
625
00:29:25,631 --> 00:29:27,933
but that's not true.
626
00:29:28,033 --> 00:29:30,535
You're the love of my life,
627
00:29:30,636 --> 00:29:33,405
my soulmate, my husband.
628
00:29:33,505 --> 00:29:36,375
Jack is my friend.
629
00:29:36,475 --> 00:29:41,380
But as my friend, I can't ignore
what you did to him.
630
00:29:43,348 --> 00:29:45,384
I don't think you understand.
631
00:29:45,484 --> 00:29:48,253
I don't think you fully grasp
what it has meant to me
632
00:29:48,353 --> 00:29:49,821
to lose my damn company.
633
00:29:49,921 --> 00:29:52,057
Victor, yes, I do.
634
00:29:52,157 --> 00:29:53,759
I know better than anyone
635
00:29:53,859 --> 00:29:56,228
what Newman Enterprises
means to you.
636
00:29:56,328 --> 00:30:00,866
But it's not that it's all about
the loss of my company.
637
00:30:00,966 --> 00:30:03,935
I lost more than that.
638
00:30:04,036 --> 00:30:06,872
I lost you.
639
00:30:06,972 --> 00:30:10,342
And this is the second time
because of Jack Abbott.
640
00:30:10,442 --> 00:30:13,045
But you're the one
who told me to go.
641
00:30:13,145 --> 00:30:15,747
Because you sided with him.
642
00:30:18,150 --> 00:30:20,485
I guess I shouldn't have
pushed you away.
643
00:30:21,653 --> 00:30:23,722
Sorry about that.
644
00:30:25,691 --> 00:30:27,626
Thank you for that.
645
00:30:29,227 --> 00:30:30,395
Look.
646
00:30:32,097 --> 00:30:35,801
I'm willing to let go
of what you did to Jack...
647
00:30:37,302 --> 00:30:40,105
If you can let go of what you
think happened that night
648
00:30:40,205 --> 00:30:44,876
in the hotel suite when Jack
was trying to get me sober.
649
00:30:44,976 --> 00:30:46,278
I mean...
650
00:30:47,946 --> 00:30:52,217
That's the only chance we have
of reclaiming our life together.
651
00:30:53,785 --> 00:30:55,387
But...
652
00:30:56,621 --> 00:30:59,825
I cannot give up my friendship
653
00:30:59,925 --> 00:31:03,328
with the person who made sure
that I still have a life.
654
00:31:07,599 --> 00:31:09,234
I guess...
655
00:31:15,207 --> 00:31:17,509
My love for you...
656
00:31:19,378 --> 00:31:22,314
...is stronger than my hatred
for Jack Abbott.
657
00:31:25,417 --> 00:31:27,419
Thank you.
658
00:31:32,991 --> 00:31:35,160
Let's go home.
659
00:31:46,805 --> 00:31:48,940
You know, I never really felt
like I was at home
660
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:50,942
these last few weeks.
661
00:31:51,042 --> 00:31:53,178
Don't get me wrong--
I was grateful
662
00:31:53,278 --> 00:31:57,182
to be able to recover
from my surgery there...
663
00:31:57,282 --> 00:32:01,153
but it wasn't the same,
you and I on separate floors
664
00:32:01,253 --> 00:32:06,391
and you seemed close by
but you were still far away.
665
00:32:06,491 --> 00:32:08,927
I missed you so much.
666
00:32:09,027 --> 00:32:13,198
I kept waiting, wanting you to
stay that you missed me too.
667
00:32:17,402 --> 00:32:20,305
And I'm grateful that
you were able to be with me
668
00:32:20,405 --> 00:32:24,676
through my whole ordeal,
and this morning with Nicholas.
669
00:32:24,776 --> 00:32:27,078
I would not have been able
to get through either of them
670
00:32:27,179 --> 00:32:28,213
without you.
671
00:32:28,313 --> 00:32:31,249
I missed you more than...
672
00:32:31,349 --> 00:32:33,418
you will ever know.
673
00:32:33,518 --> 00:32:34,920
And I wouldn't have let you
674
00:32:35,020 --> 00:32:38,056
deal with the Nicholas situation
by yourself.
675
00:32:41,927 --> 00:32:43,161
Oh, my God.
676
00:32:43,261 --> 00:32:44,696
-What?
-Am I seeing
677
00:32:44,796 --> 00:32:46,498
what I think I'm seeing
over here?
678
00:32:46,598 --> 00:32:48,834
Phyllis and Matt Clark.
679
00:32:49,801 --> 00:32:51,570
They've been together
for a while.
680
00:32:51,670 --> 00:32:54,673
Oh, well,
they seem pretty close.
681
00:32:54,773 --> 00:32:56,007
Yeah.
682
00:32:56,107 --> 00:32:57,809
Let you and I get out of here,
okay?
683
00:32:57,909 --> 00:33:00,545
-I'll deal with them later.
-No, deal with them now, Victor.
684
00:33:00,645 --> 00:33:01,847
Please?
685
00:33:01,947 --> 00:33:05,217
Be the hero that
you've always been for me
686
00:33:05,317 --> 00:33:10,155
and make sure that Matt Clark
can never hurt our family again.
687
00:33:11,823 --> 00:33:13,825
You are reading too much
into this.
688
00:33:13,925 --> 00:33:16,261
All I said is we should
sit down and talk.
689
00:33:16,361 --> 00:33:18,864
About Matt.
About how much he's changed.
690
00:33:18,964 --> 00:33:22,234
Okay, just because I said that
I believe that he was sincere
691
00:33:22,334 --> 00:33:24,402
doesn't mean
that I excuse who he was.
692
00:33:24,503 --> 00:33:26,505
I am not that gullible!
693
00:33:26,605 --> 00:33:28,139
I didn't mean to imply
that you were.
694
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,674
Well, it sounded like you did.
695
00:33:29,774 --> 00:33:31,309
You are a good person, Sienna.
696
00:33:31,409 --> 00:33:33,211
You always try to see
the best in people, and that
697
00:33:33,311 --> 00:33:35,180
is something that I admire
and would never wanna change.
698
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:36,648
Yeah, except when
it comes to Matt.
699
00:33:36,748 --> 00:33:38,683
Well, yeah, in this case, I'm
afraid you're seeing something
700
00:33:38,783 --> 00:33:40,952
that just isn't there.
I mean, do I have to remind you
701
00:33:41,052 --> 00:33:42,420
what a master manipulator
Matt is?
702
00:33:42,521 --> 00:33:44,322
-No. No, you don't.
-Okay, well, it seems like
703
00:33:44,422 --> 00:33:46,424
-you keep forgetting.
-What, what, that he will say
704
00:33:46,525 --> 00:33:48,527
or do anything
to get what he wants?
705
00:33:48,627 --> 00:33:51,062
No, I have not forgotten.
706
00:33:51,162 --> 00:33:52,898
Okay, good.
707
00:33:52,998 --> 00:33:55,066
Nobody manipulates me.
708
00:33:55,166 --> 00:33:57,369
And nobody controls me.
709
00:33:57,469 --> 00:33:59,604
Including you.
710
00:33:59,704 --> 00:34:03,241
[footsteps retreat rapidly]
711
00:34:05,243 --> 00:34:06,811
I know you don't wanna
believe this,
712
00:34:06,912 --> 00:34:08,747
but Sienna is not on your side.
713
00:34:08,847 --> 00:34:11,116
She's aligned with the Newmans.
They'll come first.
714
00:34:11,216 --> 00:34:12,751
Oh--ugh.
715
00:34:12,851 --> 00:34:15,287
What--this is a private
conversation.
716
00:34:19,491 --> 00:34:21,927
Not talking to you, okay?
717
00:34:22,027 --> 00:34:24,563
So wait a minute now.
718
00:34:26,097 --> 00:34:28,433
Where's your ankle monitor?
719
00:34:28,533 --> 00:34:32,337
I just heard from my security
that you left it
720
00:34:32,437 --> 00:34:34,573
-in your room at the ranch.
-I did, yeah.
721
00:34:34,673 --> 00:34:36,174
-Huh.
-It was itchy.
722
00:34:36,274 --> 00:34:38,944
It was giving me a rash.
Had to go, so...
723
00:34:39,044 --> 00:34:41,546
Phyllis and I got it off.
724
00:34:41,646 --> 00:34:43,682
So you ignored my instructions.
725
00:34:43,782 --> 00:34:46,785
That's never a good idea,
you know.
726
00:34:46,885 --> 00:34:49,220
I have every intention
of honoring our agreement.
727
00:34:49,321 --> 00:34:50,855
I just--I need a little
breathing room
728
00:34:50,956 --> 00:34:52,524
to accomplish the goals.
729
00:34:57,662 --> 00:35:02,734
I think I made the terms of our
agreement perfectly clear.
730
00:35:02,834 --> 00:35:05,637
And I also told you
what would happen
731
00:35:05,737 --> 00:35:08,273
if you didn't abide
by those agreements.
732
00:35:08,373 --> 00:35:11,176
Yeah, you were very clear
with me, Victor.
733
00:35:11,276 --> 00:35:13,078
But the contract
needs a little wiggle room.
734
00:35:13,178 --> 00:35:16,381
Because I'm about to violate
a whole bunch of other terms.
735
00:35:16,481 --> 00:35:19,551
I'm moving out of the room
on the ranch, Victor.
736
00:35:19,651 --> 00:35:22,087
I'm gonna shack up
with my girl Phyllis.
737
00:35:24,923 --> 00:35:26,791
We'll see about that.
738
00:35:33,465 --> 00:35:35,533
Next week on
"The Young and the Restless."
739
00:35:37,902 --> 00:35:38,870
[gasps]
740
00:35:38,970 --> 00:35:40,739
Mariah?
741
00:35:40,839 --> 00:35:41,873
Hi, Mom.
742
00:35:41,973 --> 00:35:44,609
-I like it here.
-Yes, I know you do.
743
00:35:44,709 --> 00:35:47,979
But your regular job
might get in the way.
744
00:35:48,079 --> 00:35:51,583
Yeah. What if it were
my regular job?
745
00:35:52,817 --> 00:35:54,819
Rival star?
746
00:35:54,919 --> 00:35:57,088
Rock club manager.
747
00:35:57,188 --> 00:36:00,425
Meet the new man in charge.
748
00:36:02,661 --> 00:36:04,963
VICTOR: I wish you would
marry me again.
749
00:36:05,063 --> 00:36:08,433
I would marry you
a thousand times over.
750
00:36:08,533 --> 00:36:11,302
You ready to be a bride again,
Mom?
751
