>> Summer: Mom, come on.
Don't run away.
Please just talk to me.
You just admitted that you screwed things up with Jack.
>> Phyllis: Okay, listen, keep your voice down.
>> Summer: Okay.
[ Scoffs ] I mean, what did you mean by
that, though?
You were super optimistic about where things were headed with
you guys, and then the second Kyle and I walked in, it was
obvious something was wrong.
And now look at you.
You're terrible at hiding your feelings.
You're scaring me, so please just tell me what's going on.
>> Phyllis: What -- Hey, hey.
Amanda's here, okay?
I have to get to work.
>> Summer: Mom.
>> Phyllis: I have to get to work.
There's a big Chancellor-Winters launch party.
I have to set it up.
People are waiting for me in the ballroom, okay?
We'll talk later.
Shh.
>> Amanda: Is everything alright?
>> Jack: Once they give you a real timetable, then get back to
me.
Alright, thanks.
>> Kyle: I know you said everything's fine, but what did
you mean when you called Phyllis too predictable?
What's going on with you guys?
>> Jack: No offense, son, this is really none of your business.
>> Kyle: We are talking about my mother-in-law.
>> Jack: Yeah, all the more reason to change the subject.
Look, Phyllis and I had a minor...disagreement.
We will find our way through this.
>> Kyle: You said you were taking things slow, testing the
waters, but I'm getting the feeling you blew right past the
casual phase.
>> Jack: What do you mean by that?
>> Kyle: Whatever Summer and I interrupted earlier was more
than just a little spat.
Dad, did your night at Phyllis' turn into something more
serious?
Are you back together?
>> Jack: Believe me, Phyllis and I were not -- are not together
in any meaningful sense.
>> Kyle: Okay, then what went sideways?
The other morning when you got home, you were so happy, and I
know you were questioning Phyllis' timing, but I figured
that was just your nerves talking, not a real thing.
Was I wrong?
Did something else happen?
♪♪ ♪♪
>> Allie: Traci, hi.
>> Traci: Well, hello.
>> Allie: Hi.
Would you care to join us?
>> Diane: Yes, please do.
>> Traci: Sure.
I -- Sure. Why not?
[ Chuckles ] Allie, I am not running into you
very much at the house.
I wonder if we're just keeping different schedules.
I'm kind of a night owl.
>> Allie: And I'm kind of an early bird.
I like to go out for early runs.
>> Traci: Oh.
>> Allie: By the way, I have really enjoyed exploring
Genoa City.
>> Traci: Well, how are you finding it so far?
>> Allie: Truthfully, I'm kind of falling in love with the
place.
I've already asked Jack if I could stay a little bit longer.
>> Traci: Well, that is just wonderful.
I'm so happy to hear it.
>> Diane: Me too.
And in case you haven't heard, I'm thinking of sticking around
myself.
>> Victoria: The problem with going away on vacation...
>> Nikki: Hmm.
A working vacation anyway.
But it sure was nice to have a change of scenery.
>> Victoria: The spa that you chose was absolutely fabulous.
Thank you for arranging such an elegant treat for us.
>> Nikki: Oh, I'm so glad you enjoyed it, darling.
>> Victoria: I did, and I appreciate also that you agreed
to come home early so that we could make it to the finance
meeting.
>> Nikki: Yeah, it -- it was good that we were there in
person.
I much prefer it to video calls.
>> Victoria: I do, too.
>> Nikki: But, you know, the jet lag is gonna start to set in, so
I think we ought to get you home to rest, especially with your
flare-up of your accident.
>> Victoria: Mom, I'm not the least bit tired.
I'd actually like to review the redlines on the Singapore deal.
I'd like to be able to get those contracts out by next week.
I know it's probably gonna take me a while, so if you want to go
home, feel free to -- Is there something wrong?
>> Nikki: I don't know.
You tell me.
You were quiet at the spa, quiet on the jet.
In fact, you haven't talked to me about anything except work
ever since we left for Switzerland.
Honey, I just need to know -- did it work?
Were you able to get Ashland out of your system?
[ Knock on door ] >> Ashland: [ Sighs ]
>> Ashland Locke?
>> Ashland: Yeah.
>> This is for you.
>> Ashland: [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ]
>> Amanda: You two seem upset, so...
>> Phyllis: No, no, no.
It's nothing.
Jack and I, we just had a little argument.
No big deal.
I can fix it before anybody knows the long, boring story.
But you're here to discuss the launch party, right?
>> Amanda: Yeah, I am, but, you know, everybody, they're in the
ballroom.
They're checking out the space.
They're talking logistics, so I'll just let you stay here.
We -- I can meet you there.
>> Phyllis: No, no, no, no.
No, it's all good.
It's all good.
Okay? You -- I'm fine, Summer.
I overreacted.
You know, I do that.
Okay? No big deal, but I need to get to work.
I need to discuss this party.
So we'll talk later.
I'm gonna sign a couple things, then we'll go.
>> Jack: I meant what I said.
Whatever I'm dealing with in my personal life is nothing for you
to be concerned about.
Right now I would rather be talking about Jabot's purchase
of Marchetti.
>> Kyle: Are you rethinking your position?
>> Jack: I looked over your proposal very carefully.
I did my own due diligence.
Played with the numbers a bit.
And despite my early reservations, I think it's the
right move for us.
>> Kyle: [ Chuckles ] This is great news!
And Summer's gonna be just as thrilled.
>> Jack: Well, both of you did excellent work.
>> Kyle: Well, of course, now I have to ask, you aren't doing
this just to get us back here?
I know you had your concerns about the acquisition.
>> Jack: I think you know me better than that.
I learned a long time ago not to let emotions interfere with my
decisions.
No, I didn't want to buy another fashion house, since we just
exited the fashion business, but when I looked things over a
little more carefully, I realized Marchetti still is a
powerful brand, regardless how messy their books are.
>> Kyle: That'll help with the price, for sure, and make the
deal more attractive.
>> Jack: And I will admit, the best part of the whole thing is
that you, Summer, and Harrison will be moving back home, and I
carefully kept that consideration away from my
financial analysis.
>> Kyle: So?
Do we have a deal?
>> Jack: No, well, you're gonna have to run it by the board
first.
They're gonna have to approve.
But I will get that first meeting started and help you
keep moving things forward.
>> Kyle: Dad, just thank you.
I couldn't be more pleased.
And I promise -- promise to wow the board.
>> Jack: I have no doubt that you'll be successful.
>> Kyle: I mean, so much has changed so fast.
I -- Summer and I, we love living in Milan with Harrison,
but it's been nice being around family again.
There's really nothing like it.
>> Jack: Yeah.
The Abbott house is starting to feel like a home again.
>> Traci: I can't tell you how great it is to have so many
members of the family all living under the same roof again.
>> Allie: It's definitely a little strange to be in such a
big, busy house -- in a good way.
I grew up as an only child, so I'm not used to having so many
people around everywhere I turn.
>> Traci: Is this overwhelming for you?
Do you need some more privacy?
>> Allie: Oh, no, actually, I'm really enjoying it.
>> Traci: Good.
>> Allie: I've been hanging out a ton with Harrison, who is just
so adorable, and then of course there's Summer, who's been
incredibly welcoming.
As all of you guys have.
I'm very grateful.
>> Diane: Allie, do you miss LA at all?
For me, I always felt like a transplant, but for you, it's --
it's home.
>> Allie: It is.
But when I think of LA now, all I think of is my dad.
And I think it's a good idea to stay away from California for a
little bit longer.
>> Traci: Well, sweetie, you're grieving.
I know what that feels like.
>> Allie: Yeah, but, Traci, I don't want to overstay my
welcome.
I finished school and I have my master's now.
And it's time to start thinking about the rest of my life.
>> Diane: Oh, that's a daunting thought.
[ Chuckles ] >> Traci: If I might offer just
a word of advice, take your time deciding what you want to do
next.
Stay and enjoy the hustle and bustle of our house as long as
you want to.
>> Allie: That is so kind of you, Traci.
I appreciate that.
>> Traci: Well, it's lovely having you.
I hope that you'll stay a good long time.
>> Diane: Jack must be over the moon with you and Kyle and that
cute little Harrison all under one roof.
>> Traci: Yes.
We're all really grateful to have Allie in our lives, Diane.
>> Diane: [ Chuckles ]
>> Phyllis: Alright, I just have a couple things to take care of
before we go into the ballroom.
>> Amanda: You're not fooling anyone, you know.
>> Phyllis: What are you talking about?
>> Amanda: I understand you not wanting to worry Summer, but,
you know, everyone in the ballroom, they have a lot to
keep them busy for a little while, so why don't you talk to
me?
Why don't you tell me what happened with Jack?
>> Phyllis: Um, okay.
Jack and I, we've been getting along great.
Everything's going great.
And then Diane came to town and goaded me into something
that I shouldn't have done.
>> Amanda: What did you do exactly?
>> Phyllis: I engaged in "PDA" with Jack just to stick it to
Diane.
And then we argued about it here.
Jack walked in, he overheard everything.
>> Amanda: Okay, Phyllis, this sounds really bad.
>> Phyllis: Yeah.
Yeah, it's bad.
>> Amanda: Didn't I ask you if that's what you were doing?
And I believe you said that that was not your intention at all,
that the timing was coincidental.
>> Phyllis: I lied to you.
I lied to myself.
Really.
That woman, I mean, I don't think I understand to the extent
of how she gets to me, Amanda.
Seriously, it's like all of these old habits are coming
back, and it scares me.
Honestly.
I mean, she knows how to take any little insecurity that I
might have, and she knows how to exploit it.
I thought all of that was behind me.
>> Amanda: Clearly it's not.
>> Phyllis: I mean, honestly, I didn't want to hurt Jack, and
what happened between the two of us, I mean...
[ Sighs ] It felt good.
It felt good to stick it to Diane.
It felt good to throw it in her face.
But then he was standing there and the look on his face, he was
so hurt.
>> Amanda: As much as I hate to say it, this does not sound
good.
>> Phyllis: It's the worst.
>> Amanda: Yeah.
Phyllis, you can talk to him.
You can convince him that you didn't mean it.
Right?
>> Phyllis: I don't know.
I'll try.
Honestly, I just -- I feel horrible about doing that to
him.
I detest Diane Jenkins.
I detest that woman.
>> Diane: What do you think the future might hold for you,
Allie?
What kind of career are you interested in?
>> Allie: Well, my degree is in chemical engineering, but I have
no idea how I want to apply it.
>> Diane: [ Chuckles ] I see.
>> Allie: Yeah, I thought I was headed down a very specific path
in LA, but now I am totally rethinking things.
>> Traci: Would you like to tour the lab at Jabot?
After all, that's where Ashley started as a chemist.
>> Allie: Yes, we had talked about that.
She is in a different field of study than mine, but I'd love to
learn more.
Finding that out, that we had that in common, was a really
nice surprise.
>> Diane: I can imagine.
>> Traci: And, of course, that's where Keemo was a chemist.
>> Allie: That's right, Jack told me that, that they had
worked together.
And that's also another reason why I wanted to stay longer
was to learn more about the family I didn't know I had and
the dad I thought I knew.
>> Victoria: You know, on second thought, I do feel jet lag
setting in.
Let's not have this conversation right now.
>> Nikki: Well, darling, before we left, you were very honest
about your feelings for Ashland.
You said that you couldn't just stop loving him on a dime.
And then you agreed to this trip to get some distance, to start
making the emotional break.
I'm just saying that you can be honest now, too.
Did it work?
I'm not going to judge you.
>> Victoria: There's nothing to judge.
>> Nikki: Victoria -- >> Victoria: Look.
I did some thinking in Europe.
>> Nikki: And what did you conclude?
>> Victoria: That I have been running away from my feelings
because they're messy and they are complicated and they're
confusing.
But I can't escape them, Mom.
It doesn't work that way.
I have to face all of the sadness and the pain and the
humiliation and whatever else is there, and I have to -- have to
learn to live with it.
And I've accepted that.
But the rest of you haven't.
>> Nikki: The rest of who?
>> Victoria: The family.
But you and Dad especially.
You all think you know better than I do what I need and you
don't trust me to sort this out on my own.
You think I'm gonna do something wrong and that you're gonna have
to step in and save me from myself, and I'm sorry, but I
feel like I'm being micro-managed right now.
So that's why I've decided I'm not gonna talk this through with
anyone.
Not even you.
>> Summer: Hey, guys.
>> Kyle: Hey, babe.
Dad and I were just going over my presentation.
You're welcome to sit in, if you'd like.
>> Jack: You know what?
You seem to have the framework.
I'm sure you can work it all out.
I got an errand I've got to run, so you can get to it.
Please excuse me.
>> Summer: Well, that was abrupt.
>> Kyle: Yeah, I've got some news I want to share.
Don't worry, it's good, but first, did you catch up with
your mom?
Is Phyllis okay?
>> Summer: I can't tell.
She was acting very weird, even for her.
>> Kyle: Weird how?
>> Summer: She admitted that she screwed things up with Jack
somehow, and then she totally backpedaled.
>> Kyle: Yeah, Dad's upset, too.
Not that I can get him to talk about it.
>> Summer: [ Sighs ] There is definitely something
going on between our parents.
[ Telephone rings ] >> Victor: Yes.
Alright, send him in.
>> Ashland: You're behind this, aren't you?
>> Victor: What's that?
>> Ashland: This restraining order keeping me from seeing
Harrison.
You pulled some strings with the judge or maybe had your lackey
Michael Baldwin do it for you.
Don't deny it.
>> Victor: Why would I deny that?
The boy needs protection from you.
>> Ashland: This is a farce.
I've done nothing to deserve this over-the-top reaction.
>> Victor: This a judge's order.
You best not violate it.
Otherwise, you'll end up in jail.
Come to think of it, why don't you violate it?
We'll all enjoy seeing you behind bars.
>> Summer: It's kind of bewildering.
I thought Mom and Jack were doing so well.
She was so happy that things were finally progressing.
What is it?
Do you know something different?
>> Kyle: When I talked to my dad, I got the impression he was
just playing it more cautious.
>> Summer: He doesn't want to be with my mom?
>> Kyle: No. No, no, no.
That's not it.
Just that he's concerned about getting hurt again.
>> Summer: [ Sighs ] I shouldn't have let Mom brush
me off.
I want to get to the bottom of what they argued about,
see if I can help somehow.
>> Kyle: I think the best way for us to help is by staying out
of it.
They're adults. So are we.
We shouldn't be meddling in their love life.
>> Summer: But if they need our support...
>> Kyle: My dad made it clear he didn't want me worrying.
Let him handle it.
>> Summer: That's basically what my mom said, but --
>> Kyle: No, no "buts."
I think that's exactly what we should let them do.
>> Summer: [ Sighs ] >> Amanda: I think you need to
stop, okay?
You need to stop blaming Diane.
You need to start taking responsibility for what you did.
Okay? You made a mistake.
Own it.
But don't let that stop you.
Fight.
>> Phyllis: Fight.
>> Amanda: Fight.
>> Phyllis: Yes.
I got that.
I went to Jack's and I felt bad.
I really did.
There was so much pain on his face.
I really betrayed him.
I mean, I...
I'm doing everything I swore I wouldn't do.
>> Amanda: I know, I know.
>> Phyllis: I mean, I hesitated.
I-I really did.
I hesitated to get back together with him, and...
and I -- I said I wouldn't revert to my old ways, and --
and he said he wouldn't tolerate it.
Diane!
Oh, but it is Diane, Amanda.
Diane came back from the dead.
I mean, what am I to do?
I want to be in a great, loving relationship, but it's Diane!
It's Diane who is making me do this.
Diane is making me revert to my old ways.
Diane is bringing me down to her level.
Diane is doing this.
[ Sighs ] >> Amanda: Phyllis, the thing
about trying to change, it's a process.
It's not an event.
So you can't help but backslide.
Okay?
We need to look at this as a momentary slip, not as some
proof that you are beyond redemption, okay?
>> Phyllis: Okay.
>> Amanda: Okay, good.
So tell me, where did you leave things with Jack?
>> Phyllis: Uh, I went to his house, we argued.
Kyle and Summer walked in.
>> Amanda: Oh, I guess that's why Summer was here.
>> Phyllis: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She followed me here.
She wanted answers.
She knew something was up.
>> Amanda: You're gonna -- You're gonna try and fix things
with Jack, though, right?
Phyllis.
After everything you and Jack have been through, you -- you've
taken so long to get to this point.
Don't you think that it's worth it to do whatever it takes to
hold it together?
>> "The Young and the Restless" will continue.
>> Diane: I admire anyone who goes into science.
There are so many advances happening so quickly, it must be
a challenge keeping up with it all.
>> Allie: Well, it helps being organized and, of course,
staying on top of the professional journals.
Noah.
>> Noah: Hey, there.
>> Allie: Hey.
How's it going?
>> Noah: Pretty good.
>> Traci: Hey, Noah, you're looking well.
>> Noah: Thank you, Traci.
You too.
>> Allie: Noah, this is Diane.
She -- She bought my father's house in LA.
>> Noah: Yes, Kyle's mom.
I heard you were back in town.
I'm Noah Newman.
>> Diane: Oh, of course.
It's good to see you.
>> Noah: Well, I'm glad you stuck around.
We never got a chance to talk about that episode of
"The Grinning Soul."
Did you listen to it yet?
>> Allie: Of course I did.
>> Traci: Oh, I'm a big fan.
I -- What was the most recent episode about?
>> Allie: Ambition and how to chart your own course for a
successful career.
>> Noah: No.
No, that's not what it was about at all.
>> Allie: Wait, what?
>> Noah: It was about how following your bliss is the
clearest path to success.
>> Allie: Excuse me?
Wrong.
>> Noah: Are we not listening to the same podcast?
>> Allie: Following your bliss?
That was nowhere in the podcast.
>> Noah: Okay, so the guy might have worded it a little bit
differently, but that was the general gist of the episode.
Ambition's not enough.
You have to truly love what you're doing.
Otherwise, why even bother?
>> Diane: It is so interesting how you heard such different
things from it.
I'll have to listen myself.
>> Allie: No, you know, ignore Noah.
He obviously wasn't paying close attention.
Probably doodling.
>> Noah: Hey, I can multi-task.
>> Traci: Okay, okay, okay.
>> Allie: If you say so.
>> Traci: Why don't you two go and settle this somewhere else?
Go sit down, have a chat.
Diane and I have some things to catch up on ourselves.
>> Allie: Alright.
>> Diane: Thank you for keeping me company, Allie.
>> Allie: Of course.
I enjoyed our conversation.
>> Diane: Oh, is enjoyed the right word?
>> Allie: You gave me a lot to think about -- how's that?
And with that said, I am gonna follow my bliss for a refill at
the counter.
>> Noah: Oh, nicely done.
Yeah.
>> Allie: I'll see you at home later.
>> Traci: Okay.
[ Chuckles ] >> Kyle: We'd both like to see
our folks get back together, but we need to let them figure this
out on their own.
Besides, you and I are about to get extremely busy.
>> Summer: Because of the news that you mentioned?
>> Kyle: My dad reviewed the materials we gave him, and he
reversed course.
He thinks it's a good idea for Jabot to buy Marchetti.
>> Summer: [ Laughs ] Oh, God, we did it!
We're coming home!
>> Kyle: Yes, we are.
>> Summer: Oh, my God.
This is amazing.
My heart is racing.
I was starting to get worried that his reservations were too
strong and that we were gonna have to scrap the whole thing.
>> Kyle: We still have to pitch it to the board, so it's not a
done deal.
>> Summer: At least it's a start.
>> Kyle: Yeah, my dad and I were going over my presentation.
He's trying to set up a meeting for tomorrow morning, so I'm
probably looking at an all-nighter.
>> Summer: Nah, I predict that you're already prepared to nail
it.
You'll get your beauty sleep.
>> Kyle: We'll see.
>> Summer: God, this is going to really energize Jabot.
>> Kyle: And who better to convince the board of what a
coup it'll be to buy Marchetti than you?
>> Summer: Could it be true?
We're really coming home?
I've tried so hard not to get my hopes up.
>> Kyle: It's true if we want it to be.
>> Summer: Okay, then let's make it happen.
>> Kyle: I know when you first came up with the idea, you were
only thinking about the positives -- being around the
Abbotts and the Newmans again.
You didn't factor in my mother or Ashland.
>> Summer: This is our home.
Yours and mine.
It's where I want to be and where I want to raise Harrison.
>> Kyle: It'll be good to have Harrison around a strong, loving
family again.
>> Summer: Especially his doting grandfather.
This is gonna make your dad so happy.
[ Cellphone chimes ] >> Kyle: [ Sighs ]
Ashland's been served.
Restraining order's in effect.
>> Summer: [ Sighs ] It's official.
Thank God.
>> Kyle: I hope that's the last we've seen of the guy...
and didn't just pour gasoline on a fire.
>> Ashland: I don't know why I'm surprised.
You're just as ruthless as everyone has always said you
are.
>> Victor: I warned you not to cross me or my family.
You ignored the warning.
So now you got to suffer the consequences, don't you?
>> Ashland: Victor, my mistakes are old ones.
A plan set in motion before I was changed by Victoria's love.
>> Victor: Will you please stop that sentimental crap with me?
>> Ashland: I know you've been in this place where I am right
now -- needing forgiveness for something you've done and lived
to regret.
Why don't I deserve that same opportunity?
>> Victor: You don't deserve forgiveness.
And you're not sorry.
You don't understand the meaning of the word remorse, do you?
Now you're out of options.
You're desperate.
If I didn't have such disdain for you, I'd almost feel sorry
for you.
>> Ashland: Victor, if I could just make you understand how
sorry I am.
>> Victor: You're not sorry?!
I know what you were up to pretty well from the beginning.
You ensnared my daughter.
You made her fall in love with you.
You married her.
That big wedding in Tuscany!
You married her because you wanted to enlarge your
corporation, your empire.
And now you want to use that innocent little boy as a reason
to stay in town?
Ain't gonna happen!
I won't allow it.
Kyle and Summer won't allow it.
The courts won't allow it, so take your money I gave you --
$500 million -- and get the hell out of town!
>> Diane: So, Jack's granddaughter and Noah Newman.
Hmm.
Think there's something budding there?
>> Traci: I have no idea.
I know that Allie is very quiet at the house, and Noah seems to
have found a whole new side of her.
>> Diane: It appears so.
She's really cute with him.
>> Traci: I don't know her very well yet, but my impression is
that she is an intelligent and thoughtful young woman.
>> Diane: I didn't really know her either when I first started
trying to bring her and Jack together, but as soon as I met
Allie, I knew it would be good for both of them.
>> Traci: I have already praised you for that, Diane.
Am I gonna have to continue thanking you over and over?
[ Chuckles ] >> Diane: Fair enough.
Well, Allie is also aware that I had my own agenda, and in fact,
I just apologized to her and owned up to it.
>> Traci: Wow. I'm impressed.
Was she?
>> Diane: Uh...she understood and accepted why I did what I
did.
But she didn't pull any punches.
>> Traci: Good.
I'm glad to hear she's holding her own.
I'm really enjoying getting to know her better.
>> Diane: Yeah, it appears you two have a lovely connection.
I really like seeing that.
>> Traci: [ Laughs ] Oh, brother.
>> Diane: What, too much?
>> Traci: Too much?
Diane, I remembered that you had a little bit more finesse.
[ Laughs ] Listen, I will give you this.
You're doing all the right things.
Keep it up.
>> Diane: [ Chuckles ] >> Noah: I can speak from
personal experience -- any time I've done a job to please other
people, it's been a disaster.
But when I started pursuing my art, doors started to open.
>> Allie: Yeah, but you're a Newman.
Doors open for you.
>> Noah: Yeah, but being a Newman opens up doors in the
business world, and that's where I was the least happy.
>> Allie: But most people don't have the luxury to choose
happiness over a steady paycheck.
>> Noah: Yeah, that's true.
>> Allie: I was raised to chart my own success, fight for my own
career, and that's what I took away from the podcast.
The idea is that you set a goal and then you make a plan for it
and you go after it.
Mindfully, of course.
>> Noah: Okay, so now that you're out in the real world,
what goals are you setting for yourself?
>> Allie: I have no clue.
And that's pretty freaky.
That's also the reason why I've not gone back to California
and why I've just been hanging out, drifting a little.
It is the first time in my life where I don't know what's coming
next.
And, um...I worked hard for my master's.
I assumed I would have a job by now and be happily working.
But then my dad died.
And, um...And then I found out I had a whole other family that
I never knew I had, and that threw everything off course.
[ Chuckles ] So now I am rethinking
everything -- what job I should have, where it should be.
>> Ashland: You don't believe I'm redeemable.
And I can't convince you otherwise.
So I give up -- on that front, at least.
But know this, Victor -- your daughter still loves me.
We still have a bond.
Victoria has not been able to give that up.
So the more you treat her like a child, the more you try to tell
her what to think or how to feel or how to run her life, the more
she is going to resent you for driving me away, and then you
will have your own consequences to deal with.
>> Victor: You're pressing your luck.
We'll be fine.
Now take your $500 million and get the hell out of here.
You'll be alone somewhere.
Now get out.
>> Noah: You got some big decisions ahead of you.
>> Allie: Yes, I do.
>> Noah: Well, believe it or not, I sympathize.
>> Allie: Why wouldn't I believe you?
>> Noah: It's just a figure of speech.
>> Allie: [ Laughs ] >> Noah: Anyway, I've picked up
my life and moved before.
It's not easy.
But now you got me thinking.
>> Allie: What?
>> Noah: I don't know, maybe it's time for you to jump over
to the dark, you know, follow the non-linear path.
>> Allie: No, no, no way.
Right after this, I'm gonna go to the store, I'm gonna buy a
whole bunch of planners, and make a whole bunch of lists.
[ Both laugh ] That's probably completely alien
to you, huh?
>> Noah: Hey, I had to follow a lot of directions for my
sister's wedding.
There was a list coming at me from every direction.
>> Allie: Let me guess, those lists just flew completely over
your head.
[ Laughs ] And you -- you followed your
instinct on designing the space.
>> Noah: Yeah, yeah, you nailed it.
>> Allie: You know, they say that I can read people.
You seem as someone who just follows his gut.
>> Noah: Okay, well, I'll take that as a compliment.
>> Allie: It's an observation.
[ Chuckles ] >> Noah: Alright, let's
compromise.
>> Allie: About?
>> Noah: "The Grinning Soul" episode.
>> Allie: Alright.
Go for it.
>> Noah: Maybe -- just maybe -- the message he was trying to
convey is that there are wildly divergent paths to success and
happiness.
And your mission, should you choose to accept it, is finding
a path that works for you.
>> Allie: Nah.
I'm still right.
You missed the point entirely.
>> Victor: My baby.
>> Nikki: Oh, Victor.
>> Victor: Oh, my baby.
>> Nikki: Mm.
>> Victor: I'm so happy you're back.
>> Nikki: Mm.
>> Victor: Mm.
>> Nikki: I missed you.
I'm so glad to be home.
>> Victor: I've missed you.
Why didn't you stay in Europe longer?
That would've given me a chance to get rid of Ashland Locke.
>> Nikki: I know we talked about keeping Victoria away longer,
but she insisted on coming home early.
>> Victor: Oh.
>> Victoria: Oh, look at who's here.
>> Victor: There you are.
>> Victoria: Hi.
[ Chuckles ] Hi, Dad.
How are you?
>> Victor: What happened?
>> Victoria: Huh?
Oh, nothing, it's just a little flare-up from the accident.
Not a big deal.
Mom and I had the most amazing time in Europe.
>> Victor: Anyway, I want to hear all about your trip to
Europe, I really do.
Meanwhile, I have some good news for you.
Ashland paid me a visit.
We had a very productive conversation.
>> Victoria: About what?
>> Victor: Well, I think our trouble may soon be over.
>> Victoria: Dad, what have you done now?
>> Victor: Now take your $500 million and get the hell
out of here.
You'll be alone somewhere.
Now get out.
>> Ashland: [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ]
>> Next week on "The Young and the Restless"...
>> Sharon: Oh, my gosh!
Welcome home.
Look at you two.
You're glowing!
>> Tessa: Honeymoons do that.
>> Victoria: I want to start over, away from this place, away
from all of the people, and I don't want to just imagine it
this time.
I actually want to do it.
>> Ashland: You really mean that?
>> Victoria: [ Chuckles ] >> Phyllis: You're done?
After -- What, after all of this, this is the end?
>> Jack: Yeah.
>> Phyllis: Really?
>> Jack: This is the end.
Goodbye.
