1
00:00:15,715 --> 00:00:16,850
>> Jack: Phyllis, I'll talk to
you later.
2
00:00:16,916 --> 00:00:18,518
I can't do it right now.
>> Phyllis: Please let me
3
00:00:18,585 --> 00:00:25,191
explain what you heard me say to
Diane, please.
4
00:00:25,258 --> 00:00:26,860
>> Jack: Frankly, you couldn't
have spelled it out more
5
00:00:26,926 --> 00:00:30,397
clearly.
The main reason we finally got
6
00:00:30,463 --> 00:00:33,833
together, the main reason we
kicked our romance into high
7
00:00:33,900 --> 00:00:36,536
gear is you wanted to stick it
to your old enemy.
8
00:00:36,603 --> 00:00:37,804
>> Phyllis: Okay, that's not
what it was at all.
9
00:00:37,871 --> 00:00:40,440
>> Jack: I specifically asked
you if you were flaunting our
10
00:00:40,507 --> 00:00:43,143
relationship in front of Diane
because she was needling you.
11
00:00:43,209 --> 00:00:45,578
You denied that.
I assume you're here to deny it
12
00:00:45,645 --> 00:00:47,080
again.
Maybe I should've listened to
13
00:00:47,147 --> 00:00:49,048
that voice in my head.
>> Phyllis: Whoa, oh, that voice
14
00:00:49,115 --> 00:00:51,117
in your head?
You know who that is.
15
00:00:51,184 --> 00:00:54,020
That's Diane.
She's putting all those thoughts
16
00:00:54,087 --> 00:00:55,955
in your head.
She's doing the same thing to
17
00:00:56,022 --> 00:00:58,324
me, Jack.
That's what she does.
18
00:00:58,391 --> 00:01:01,861
She's trying to manipulate us.
Please do not have her have that
19
00:01:01,928 --> 00:01:04,931
power over you.
Please, Jack.
20
00:01:11,971 --> 00:01:14,240
>> Summer: My dad says Harrison
and Christian are having a ball
21
00:01:14,307 --> 00:01:16,643
at his place.
>> Kyle: I'm glad Nick let him
22
00:01:16,709 --> 00:01:18,378
hang out there.
It's the best place for him to
23
00:01:18,445 --> 00:01:20,580
be tucked away while we wait for
Ashland to be served with the
24
00:01:20,647 --> 00:01:22,482
restraining order.
>> Diane: [ Sighs ]
25
00:01:22,549 --> 00:01:26,519
I hope I'm not interrupting.
>> Kyle: Uh, this is a surprise.
26
00:01:26,586 --> 00:01:31,391
>> Diane: I have been trying to
find you two because...I have a
27
00:01:31,458 --> 00:01:33,460
confession to make.

>> Sally: I did it!
>> Adam: What exactly did you
31
00:02:14,934 --> 00:02:16,135
do?
>> Sally: The deal with
32
00:02:16,202 --> 00:02:17,337
Hartwell.
I closed it.
33
00:02:17,403 --> 00:02:19,973
Can you believe it?
You should've seen how hard I
34
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:24,944
negotiated.
[ Sighs ]
35
00:02:25,011 --> 00:02:29,115
Okay, you are really taking the
fun out of this.
36
00:02:29,182 --> 00:02:32,819
>> Adam: I'm...
I'm sorry.
37
00:02:32,886 --> 00:02:38,224
I know it's a major coup, so
congratulations.
38
00:02:38,291 --> 00:02:43,663
>> Sally: What's wrong?
>> Adam: Just something is on my
39
00:02:43,730 --> 00:02:48,001
mind.
>> Sally: Newman Media related?
40
00:02:48,067 --> 00:02:51,104
>> Adam: No.
Our plan to push Victoria and
41
00:02:51,170 --> 00:02:54,574
Ashland back together, we hit a
snag.
42
00:02:54,641 --> 00:02:56,209
>> Sally: But the text you sent
made it seem like things were
43
00:02:56,276 --> 00:02:58,878
moving along.
>> Adam: It was.
44
00:02:58,945 --> 00:03:01,180
>> Sally: And I thought Ashland
was more determined than ever to
45
00:03:01,247 --> 00:03:05,351
get back together with her.
>> Adam: It was all headed in
46
00:03:05,418 --> 00:03:08,021
that direction.
And Victoria just got back from
47
00:03:08,087 --> 00:03:11,057
her ridiculous spa trip to
Switzerland, so it seemed like
48
00:03:11,124 --> 00:03:15,261
it was just a matter of time,
but something interfered with
49
00:03:15,328 --> 00:03:17,463
our plan.
>> Sally: [ Sighs ]
50
00:03:17,530 --> 00:03:20,934
What?
>> Adam: My father.
51
00:03:25,738 --> 00:03:28,608
>> Nate: Hey.
I am so sorry if I woke you.
52
00:03:28,675 --> 00:03:31,444
I was trying my best to keep
quiet so you can get some rest.
53
00:03:31,511 --> 00:03:33,846
>> Elena: Oh, you didn't seem to
care about that earlier.
54
00:03:33,913 --> 00:03:36,082
>> Nate: Oh, I cared.
>> Elena: [ Chuckles ]
55
00:03:36,149 --> 00:03:38,952
Well, I set my alarm so I
wouldn't miss my shift at the
56
00:03:39,018 --> 00:03:40,920
clinic.
Where are you headed?
57
00:03:40,987 --> 00:03:43,990
>> Nate: Devon invited me to sit
in on a meeting with the head of
58
00:03:44,057 --> 00:03:46,426
his digital marketing agency,
and then we're headed to
59
00:03:46,492 --> 00:03:48,861
The Grand Phoenix to make sure
all the plans are in place for
60
00:03:48,928 --> 00:03:50,229
the launch.
>> Elena: [ Gasps ]
61
00:03:50,296 --> 00:03:54,233
Your first big event as COO.
>> Nate: It's all coming
62
00:03:54,300 --> 00:03:56,102
together.
>> Elena: So, who's all gonna be
63
00:03:56,169 --> 00:03:58,204
at The Grand Phoenix for this
meeting?
64
00:03:58,271 --> 00:04:00,807
>> Nate: Well, Lily just got
back from her trip, so I'm sure
65
00:04:00,873 --> 00:04:02,775
she'll be there.
Billy is not available, so
66
00:04:02,842 --> 00:04:04,877
probably just the three of us.
>> Elena: Good.
67
00:04:04,944 --> 00:04:07,580
I mean, the fewer the people,
the more efficient it'll be.
68
00:04:07,647 --> 00:04:09,048
>> Nate: I will see you after
your shift.
69
00:04:09,115 --> 00:04:11,384
>> Elena: Yes.
Tell Lily I said hi.
70
00:04:11,451 --> 00:04:26,332
>> Nate: Will do.
>> Imani: Looks like we both
71
00:04:26,399 --> 00:04:29,002
>> Nate: Will do.
>> Imani: Looks like we both
72
00:04:29,068 --> 00:04:31,204
have the same thought about
arriving early and getting some
73
00:04:31,270 --> 00:04:33,239
work done before the meeting.
>> Lily: [ Chuckles ]
74
00:04:33,306 --> 00:04:35,575
I didn't know that you were
gonna be in attendance.
75
00:04:35,642 --> 00:04:39,078
>> Imani: Yeah, I decided to
join just in case there were any
76
00:04:39,145 --> 00:04:41,814
legal concerns, so...
I could do my work in the
77
00:04:41,881 --> 00:04:44,817
restaurant until we get started.
I don't want to disturb you.
78
00:04:44,884 --> 00:04:47,620
>> Lily: Oh, no, no, no, please.
I could use the company, so have
79
00:04:47,687 --> 00:04:51,190
a seat.
[ Chuckles ]
80
00:04:58,631 --> 00:05:00,233
>> Devon: Well, thank you for
being early.
81
00:05:00,299 --> 00:05:02,535
>> Nate: I was hoping we could
talk for a few minutes before
82
00:05:02,602 --> 00:05:04,303
the meeting so you could fill me
in.
83
00:05:04,370 --> 00:05:07,340
>> Devon: Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Today, we're gonna be talking
84
00:05:07,407 --> 00:05:09,909
with Gwen Davis, who runs the
digital marketing agency that
85
00:05:09,976 --> 00:05:12,211
Hamilton-Winters has been using
for years.
86
00:05:12,278 --> 00:05:15,782
She's an industry leader, super,
super talented, ton of great
87
00:05:15,848 --> 00:05:20,486
ideas, and she doesn't believe
in bigger being better, so she
88
00:05:20,553 --> 00:05:24,257
keeps her client list pretty
tight out of principle.
89
00:05:24,323 --> 00:05:26,859
>> Nate: I can respect that.
>> Devon: Yeah, me too.
90
00:05:26,926 --> 00:05:29,362
But I have a feeling that she's
a little uneasy about the merger
91
00:05:29,429 --> 00:05:31,664
taking place, 'cause when I told
her about it, she sounded
92
00:05:31,731 --> 00:05:35,268
concerned that our working
relationship would change, so...
93
00:05:35,334 --> 00:05:37,637
>> Amanda: Hey, hi.
I didn't know you were down
94
00:05:37,704 --> 00:05:39,138
here.
>> Nate: I'm a little early for
95
00:05:39,205 --> 00:05:40,473
the meeting.
Are you joining us?
96
00:05:40,540 --> 00:05:42,542
>> Amanda: No, not yet.
I have to run to the office to
97
00:05:42,608 --> 00:05:44,343
grab a few things, but I will
meet you two at
98
00:05:44,410 --> 00:05:46,345
The Grand Phoenix, okay?
>> Devon: Okay.
99
00:05:46,412 --> 00:05:47,814
Mwah.
>> Amanda: Bye.
100
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:55,988
>> Nate: Bye.
>> Amanda: Oh, Elena, hi.
101
00:05:56,055 --> 00:05:57,390
>> Elena: Hey.
>> Amanda: You heading to work?
102
00:05:57,457 --> 00:06:00,226
>> Elena: Yeah, I'm working at
the clinic today, and I know
103
00:06:00,293 --> 00:06:02,128
you're preparing for the big
launch.
104
00:06:02,195 --> 00:06:03,996
Very exciting.
>> Amanda: Yes, it is.
105
00:06:04,063 --> 00:06:06,666
We actually have a meeting to
finalize the details today.
106
00:06:06,733 --> 00:06:08,968
>> Elena: Oh, yeah, Nate told me
about it.
107
00:06:09,035 --> 00:06:14,474
Hey, I have some time before I
have to clock in.
108
00:06:14,540 --> 00:06:17,777
If you have a minute, do you
want to join me for coffee?
109
00:06:21,481 --> 00:06:25,151
>> Adam: Kyle and Summer had a
restraining order drawn up so
110
00:06:25,218 --> 00:06:29,222
Locke has to stay away from the
kid.
111
00:06:29,288 --> 00:06:33,793
>> Sally: Oh.
Well, that's cold.
112
00:06:33,860 --> 00:06:36,329
[ Sighs ]
How does Summer get away with
113
00:06:36,395 --> 00:06:39,665
doing things like that while
people still think I'm the mean
114
00:06:39,732 --> 00:06:42,568
girl?
>> Adam: Well, being a Newman
115
00:06:42,635 --> 00:06:47,340
has its privileges.
>> Sally: Well, Ashland hasn't
116
00:06:47,406 --> 00:06:51,110
left town, and Victoria is back,
so there's still hope for our
117
00:06:51,177 --> 00:06:53,246
plan.
>> Adam: Yeah, it was a good
118
00:06:53,312 --> 00:06:54,881
idea.
It was the perfect way to
119
00:06:54,947 --> 00:06:57,116
showcase Victoria's poor
judgment.
120
00:06:57,183 --> 00:06:59,852
But we're running out of time.
I mean, Locke is probably
121
00:06:59,919 --> 00:07:02,622
already planning his route out
of Genoa City as we speak.
122
00:07:02,688 --> 00:07:06,626
>> Sally: I still have hope.
But if it doesn't work out, not
123
00:07:06,692 --> 00:07:08,528
to worry.
We'll just come up with
124
00:07:08,594 --> 00:07:10,630
something else.
A better plan.
125
00:07:10,696 --> 00:07:14,000
We will put our brilliant brains
together and come up with
126
00:07:14,066 --> 00:07:17,136
something even more clever to
prove that you are the only one
127
00:07:17,203 --> 00:07:22,008
who should be running
Newman Enterprises.
128
00:07:22,074 --> 00:07:27,213
>> Summer: What have you done?
>> Diane: I saw Jack and Phyllis
129
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,882
in the park earlier, and I made
a comment about your possible
130
00:07:29,949 --> 00:07:33,519
move back to Genoa City.
I didn't realize you were trying
131
00:07:33,586 --> 00:07:35,521
to keep that quiet.
>> Summer: I don't understand
132
00:07:35,588 --> 00:07:37,056
what the issue is.
>> Kyle: Yeah, they already knew
133
00:07:37,123 --> 00:07:39,592
we were thinking about moving
back.
134
00:07:39,659 --> 00:07:42,528
>> Diane: Ashland was there,
too.
135
00:07:42,595 --> 00:07:45,198
Jack made it clear that he
wasn't happy that I shared that
136
00:07:45,264 --> 00:07:47,800
information in front of him.
>> Kyle: Okay, what was Ashland
137
00:07:47,867 --> 00:07:49,635
even doing there?
Was he harassing Dad for
138
00:07:49,702 --> 00:07:51,270
information on where to find
Harrison?
139
00:07:51,337 --> 00:07:53,906
>> Diane: Oh, no, no, no, it was
nothing like that.
140
00:07:53,973 --> 00:07:56,542
Ashland and I were just
chatting, and then we ran into
141
00:07:56,609 --> 00:07:59,111
Jack and Phyllis.
>> Summer: Wait, I didn't even
142
00:07:59,178 --> 00:08:01,547
realize that you and Ashland
knew each other.
143
00:08:01,614 --> 00:08:03,950
>> Diane: Oh, well, we crossed
paths a few times at
144
00:08:04,016 --> 00:08:06,686
The Grand Phoenix when we were
both staying there, and then
145
00:08:06,752 --> 00:08:10,022
when we saw each other in the
park, we stopped to chat.
146
00:08:10,089 --> 00:08:12,892
>> Kyle: Ashland Locke is bad
news./
147
00:08:12,959 --> 00:08:15,561
He's in the process of splitting
up with Victoria because of some
148
00:08:15,628 --> 00:08:17,263
pretty heinous behavior on his
part.
149
00:08:17,330 --> 00:08:20,233
>> Diane: I'm aware of that now.
And Jack warned me about him,
150
00:08:20,299 --> 00:08:22,168
too.
And then when I asked Ashland
151
00:08:22,235 --> 00:08:26,172
about it, he came clean about
all the awful things he'd done.
152
00:08:26,239 --> 00:08:29,976
But don't worry, I'm not about
to let him manipulate me.
153
00:08:30,042 --> 00:08:32,411
I made it perfectly clear that
if he is hoping that I'll
154
00:08:32,478 --> 00:08:36,549
intercede for him about
Harrison, he is sorely mistaken.
155
00:08:41,754 --> 00:08:42,889
>> Phyllis: Diane is a master at
pushing buttons.
156
00:08:42,955 --> 00:08:44,957
She hasn't lost her touch.
Unfortunately, we have.
157
00:08:45,024 --> 00:08:47,660
We cannot let her keep on
playing mind games.
158
00:08:47,727 --> 00:08:49,262
We can't do it.
So you know what?
159
00:08:49,328 --> 00:08:50,763
Forget what I said.
Forget it.
160
00:08:50,830 --> 00:08:52,632
>> Jack: How do you expect me to
do that?
161
00:08:52,698 --> 00:08:55,835
>> Phyllis: I was just saying it
so she'd shut up and back off.
162
00:08:55,902 --> 00:08:58,337
>> Jack: We both know it was
never that insignificant.
163
00:08:58,404 --> 00:09:00,773
This wasn't a thoughtless remark
in a heated moment.
164
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,775
>> Phyllis: No, that's exactly
what it was.
165
00:09:02,842 --> 00:09:05,444
>> Jack: Phyllis, you arranged
for her to be in the hotel to
166
00:09:05,511 --> 00:09:08,814
see us coming downstairs after
we made love.
167
00:09:08,881 --> 00:09:10,650
It was calculated.
It was tawdry.
168
00:09:10,716 --> 00:09:13,019
And frankly, pretty hurtful.
>> Phyllis: How could you think
169
00:09:13,085 --> 00:09:15,187
that of me?
>> Jack: Because I am tired of
170
00:09:15,254 --> 00:09:18,024
pretending.
I'm tired of making excuses for
171
00:09:18,090 --> 00:09:20,226
you.
Either you're gonna tell me the
172
00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:25,298
truth or I don't see any way
that we're gonna get past this.
173
00:09:25,364 --> 00:09:28,167
>> Phyllis: What?
Of course we'll get past this.
174
00:09:28,234 --> 00:09:32,838
>> Jack: The truth, Phyllis.
The truth.
175
00:09:39,078 --> 00:09:41,247
>> Kyle: Glad you were astute
enough to realize Ashland
176
00:09:41,314 --> 00:09:43,115
intended to use you to get to
Harrison.
177
00:09:43,182 --> 00:09:45,518
>> Summer: He tried to sneak in
a visit today when Harrison was
178
00:09:45,584 --> 00:09:47,186
in the park with his nanny.
>> Diane: [ Scoffs ]
179
00:09:47,253 --> 00:09:49,755
That was a foolish move.
It'll make you even more
180
00:09:49,822 --> 00:09:51,524
protective.
>> Kyle: Exactly.
181
00:09:51,590 --> 00:09:53,859
In fact, we just took out a
restraining order so he can't
182
00:09:53,926 --> 00:09:57,830
see Harrison.
>> Summer: What, you don't
183
00:09:57,897 --> 00:10:00,466
approve?
>> Diane: No, I wouldn't say
184
00:10:00,533 --> 00:10:02,001
that.
It's not my place.
185
00:10:02,068 --> 00:10:05,037
Obviously, you know what's best
for your child.
186
00:10:05,104 --> 00:10:08,074
And after hearing all the
horrible things Ashland has
187
00:10:08,140 --> 00:10:12,478
done, I -- I see your point.
>> Summer: So why do I feel a
188
00:10:12,545 --> 00:10:14,714
"but" coming?
>> Diane: Because I can't help
189
00:10:14,780 --> 00:10:16,816
but feel a certain amount of
sympathy for the guy.
190
00:10:16,882 --> 00:10:19,752
I mean, I know what it's like to
be separated from a child that
191
00:10:19,819 --> 00:10:23,022
you love, and he does seem to
genuinely care for Harrison.
192
00:10:23,089 --> 00:10:26,025
>> Summer: Makes sense that you
would identify with Ashland, but
193
00:10:26,092 --> 00:10:28,861
hopefully you do realize that
you can love someone and still
194
00:10:28,928 --> 00:10:32,264
be toxic to them, too.
>> Diane: [ Sighs ]
195
00:10:32,331 --> 00:10:35,434
>> Amanda: Well, welcome home.
>> Summer: Hi.
196
00:10:35,501 --> 00:10:37,803
Thanks.
Hopefully we'll be here for a
197
00:10:37,870 --> 00:10:40,239
while.
>> Amanda: Oh, that's great.
198
00:10:40,306 --> 00:10:44,610
And this must be your mother.
>> Diane: Do you see the family
199
00:10:44,677 --> 00:10:47,279
resemblance?
>> Amanda: Yes, I do, and I also
200
00:10:47,346 --> 00:10:50,750
heard that you were in town.
I'm friends with Phyllis.
201
00:10:50,816 --> 00:10:55,354
>> Diane: Ah.
Sadly, I'm not.
202
00:10:55,421 --> 00:10:56,756
>> Phyllis: I'm not making
excuses.
203
00:10:56,822 --> 00:10:58,624
I'm calling out Diane for the
person that she is.
204
00:10:58,691 --> 00:11:00,860
I'm not apologizing for that, by
the way.
205
00:11:00,926 --> 00:11:04,730
I mean, I-I-I can't believe that
you can't see this.
206
00:11:04,797 --> 00:11:06,232
>> Jack: This is not about
Diane.
207
00:11:06,298 --> 00:11:07,733
>> Phyllis: Oh, it's about
Diane!
208
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:12,071
It's all about Diane!
[ Exhales sharply ]
209
00:11:12,138 --> 00:11:15,741
Oh, my God.
I mean, seriously, have you
210
00:11:15,808 --> 00:11:19,879
forgotten all of her insane
history of trying to get in
211
00:11:19,945 --> 00:11:22,081
between us?
>> Jack: You don't have to
212
00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:23,983
remind me of all the bad things
Diane did.
213
00:11:24,050 --> 00:11:25,785
>> Phyllis: I think I do.
I think I do.
214
00:11:25,851 --> 00:11:30,256
I think you've forgotten.
So I was staking my claim --
215
00:11:30,322 --> 00:11:34,360
yes, I was -- and showing her
that we are still solid.
216
00:11:34,427 --> 00:11:36,695
We are solid, and she can't get
in between us.
217
00:11:36,762 --> 00:11:39,432
>> Jack: Don't you see that you
accomplished exactly the
218
00:11:39,498 --> 00:11:42,468
opposite?
Exactly the opposite!
219
00:11:42,535 --> 00:11:46,205
You convinced her and anyone
within earshot in a hotel lobby
220
00:11:46,272 --> 00:11:49,608
that our relationship was
nothing more than a vengeful
221
00:11:49,675 --> 00:11:52,978
little game, a convenient weapon
to use against an old enemy.
222
00:11:53,045 --> 00:11:54,647
>> Phyllis: That's not what I
was doing.
223
00:11:54,713 --> 00:11:57,116
I was not doing that at all.
I cannot believe you're saying
224
00:11:57,183 --> 00:11:58,818
these things about me,
seriously.
225
00:11:58,884 --> 00:12:02,388
We have gotten so close and we
have come so far, and it took so
226
00:12:02,455 --> 00:12:04,056
long.
>> Jack: Yeah, that's my point
227
00:12:04,123 --> 00:12:07,960
exactly.
It took so long that I'd
228
00:12:08,027 --> 00:12:11,163
actually given up hope that it
would ever happen?
229
00:12:11,230 --> 00:12:14,800
Neither one of us were ready to
move to the next step, and that
230
00:12:14,867 --> 00:12:19,472
was fine with me because I
cherished our friendship.
231
00:12:19,538 --> 00:12:24,210
And then you changed your mind
when Diane came to town.
232
00:12:24,276 --> 00:12:25,644
>> Phyllis: Jack, it's not like
that at all.
233
00:12:25,711 --> 00:12:27,513
I can't believe you would think
that of me.
234
00:12:27,580 --> 00:12:29,982
>> Jack: What am I supposed to
think?
235
00:12:30,049 --> 00:12:33,686
I heard what you said.
"I accelerated things with Jack
236
00:12:33,752 --> 00:12:36,122
to shove it in your face,
Diane."
237
00:12:36,188 --> 00:12:40,893
What, you didn't say those
words?
238
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,762
>> Elena: Thank you for waiting.
>> Amanda: Mm.
239
00:12:43,829 --> 00:12:44,864
>> Elena: I'm glad you had a few
minutes.
240
00:12:44,930 --> 00:12:47,099
>> Amanda: Of course, of course.
We have to catch up.
241
00:12:47,166 --> 00:12:50,035
I'm sure you don't even know
that we have Dominic staying
242
00:12:50,102 --> 00:12:52,171
with us for the next few days.
>> Elena: No!
243
00:12:52,238 --> 00:12:54,140
I have to stop by and get my
hug.
244
00:12:54,206 --> 00:12:55,741
>> Amanda: You have to, you have
to.
245
00:12:55,808 --> 00:12:58,577
He is out with the nanny right
now, but he'll be back later.
246
00:12:58,644 --> 00:13:01,347
>> Elena: [ Chuckles ]
Devon is always so happy when he
247
00:13:01,413 --> 00:13:03,415
has Dom.
>> Amanda: Yeah, he is.
248
00:13:03,482 --> 00:13:05,551
He's so cute with that little
baby.
249
00:13:05,618 --> 00:13:08,687
And I have to tell you, he has
thrown himself into parenting.
250
00:13:08,754 --> 00:13:11,357
He takes it very, very
seriously.
251
00:13:11,423 --> 00:13:15,161
He was up until wee hours of the
morning last night, just
252
00:13:15,227 --> 00:13:18,297
researching baby gates, okay?
He's worried that Dominic's
253
00:13:18,364 --> 00:13:20,065
gonna start wandering around on
his own.
254
00:13:20,132 --> 00:13:23,802
>> Elena: You know, it's not an
exact comparison, but Nate is
255
00:13:23,869 --> 00:13:26,772
the same way.
He is so excited about his new
256
00:13:26,839 --> 00:13:29,308
job.
He's all in, reading everything
257
00:13:29,375 --> 00:13:32,211
he can get his hands on.
>> Amanda: Well, I have to tell
258
00:13:32,278 --> 00:13:34,079
you, his hard work has
definitely paid off.
259
00:13:34,146 --> 00:13:37,483
His ideas, his contributions,
they've been great.
260
00:13:37,550 --> 00:13:40,419
And I was worried that, you
know, he might miss the hospital
261
00:13:40,486 --> 00:13:43,856
environment, but he has been
thriving in this new venture.
262
00:13:43,923 --> 00:13:47,159
>> Elena: Well, I definitely
miss him at the hospital.
263
00:13:47,226 --> 00:13:50,162
But don't get me wrong, I love
seeing his enthusiasm and
264
00:13:50,229 --> 00:13:53,432
hearing about everything that
he's doing and hearing about the
265
00:13:53,499 --> 00:13:56,468
people he's working with, even
though I know most of them,
266
00:13:56,535 --> 00:14:02,474
like you and Devon and Billy and
Lily and of course your sister.
267
00:14:02,541 --> 00:14:07,246
>> Amanda: Hmm.
I think I know why you worked
268
00:14:07,313 --> 00:14:11,283
Imani into the conversation.
I just want you to know that
269
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:14,653
Imani and Nate, they have very
little reason to interact.
270
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,990
I keep her very busy.
And I've also made it very clear
271
00:14:18,057 --> 00:14:22,127
to her that Nate is strictly
off-limits, if that's a concern
272
00:14:22,194 --> 00:14:27,566
for you.
>> Imani: So I've been working
273
00:14:27,633 --> 00:14:30,035
on the Downs contract, and the
negotiations seem to have come
274
00:14:30,102 --> 00:14:32,471
to an impasse.
>> Lily: Oh, okay.
275
00:14:32,538 --> 00:14:34,940
I wasn't aware of that.
>> Imani: But I do have some
276
00:14:35,007 --> 00:14:37,343
suggestions that might turn
things around.
277
00:14:37,409 --> 00:14:39,278
>> Lily: Okay.
>> Imani: Maybe we can offer her
278
00:14:39,345 --> 00:14:41,580
some perks in lieu of a salary
increase.
279
00:14:41,647 --> 00:14:45,150
Like working a few days from
home or four 10-hour work days
280
00:14:45,217 --> 00:14:47,453
each week.
>> Lily: That's an interesting
281
00:14:47,519 --> 00:14:49,421
idea for sure.
Have you ran it by Amanda?
282
00:14:49,488 --> 00:14:51,690
What does she think?
>> Imani: Amanda tends to be a
283
00:14:51,757 --> 00:14:53,926
bit more conservative in her
thinking, so...
284
00:14:53,993 --> 00:14:56,128
>> Lily: [ Chuckles ]
Yeah.
285
00:14:56,195 --> 00:15:00,232
Well, look, I mean, I respect
Amanda a great deal, and I trust
286
00:15:00,299 --> 00:15:02,768
her judgment implicitly.
That's why I wanted her on this
287
00:15:02,835 --> 00:15:05,170
team.
288
00:15:09,775 --> 00:15:12,177
>> Devon: So, Gwen, I sensed
from some of our earlier
289
00:15:12,244 --> 00:15:14,847
conversations that you have some
reservations about moving
290
00:15:14,913 --> 00:15:17,349
forward with us.
>> Gwen: I have to admit, I'm
291
00:15:17,416 --> 00:15:19,652
concerned you might decide to
consolidate your digital
292
00:15:19,718 --> 00:15:22,021
marketing efforts with a larger
firm.
293
00:15:22,087 --> 00:15:24,890
>> Devon: Sure, yeah, that's
completely understandable.
294
00:15:24,957 --> 00:15:28,727
And allow me to ease your mind
when I tell you that your team
295
00:15:28,794 --> 00:15:32,431
does amazing work and your
strategies have optimized every
296
00:15:32,498 --> 00:15:35,901
campaign we sent your way, so I
have no intention at all of
297
00:15:35,968 --> 00:15:38,203
letting you guys go.
And I'm still the one who's
298
00:15:38,270 --> 00:15:40,639
responsible for making those
decisions at the company, or at
299
00:15:40,706 --> 00:15:43,676
least the Winters side of the
company.
300
00:15:43,742 --> 00:15:47,913
You want to add something?
>> Nate: I was just gonna second
301
00:15:47,980 --> 00:15:49,715
what Devon said.
>> Devon: Okay.
302
00:15:49,782 --> 00:15:53,319
Well, thank you.
We truly hope that you decide to
303
00:15:53,385 --> 00:15:56,188
stay on board with us, 'cause we
wouldn't be the same without
304
00:15:56,255 --> 00:15:57,489
you.
>> Gwen: That's kind of you to
305
00:15:57,556 --> 00:15:59,058
say.
>> Devon: It's definitely the
306
00:15:59,124 --> 00:16:03,262
truth.
So can we expect you to show up
307
00:16:03,329 --> 00:16:05,264
at our launch party?
>> Gwen: I wouldn't miss it for
308
00:16:05,331 --> 00:16:06,332
the world.
>> Devon: Yeah?
309
00:16:06,398 --> 00:16:07,900
>> Gwen: Thank you for your
support, Devon.
310
00:16:07,966 --> 00:16:09,935
It was nice to meet you, Nate.
>> Nate: Oh, nice to meet you,
311
00:16:10,002 --> 00:16:11,737
too.
I look forward to working with
312
00:16:11,804 --> 00:16:13,038
you.
>> Gwen: Same.
313
00:16:13,105 --> 00:16:16,542
>> Devon: Alright.
Thank you again for meeting us
314
00:16:16,608 --> 00:16:19,211
here.
>> Gwen: Thank you.
315
00:16:19,278 --> 00:16:20,779
See you soon.
>> Devon: Have a great rest of
316
00:16:20,846 --> 00:16:24,049
your day.
>> Nate: [ Sighs ]
317
00:16:24,116 --> 00:16:26,452
>> Devon: Hey.
How come you didn't speak up
318
00:16:26,518 --> 00:16:33,625
when you had something to say?
>> Elena: I hope you don't think
319
00:16:33,692 --> 00:16:36,261
that I feel threatened by Imani.
Because I don't.
320
00:16:36,328 --> 00:16:39,098
I'm just fully aware that she's
interested in Nate.
321
00:16:39,164 --> 00:16:43,635
>> Amanda: Mm, who isn't?
You know, my sister is not
322
00:16:43,702 --> 00:16:46,538
subtle at all.
I think it's just part of her
323
00:16:46,605 --> 00:16:48,607
nature.
And, yeah, she's brash, she's
324
00:16:48,674 --> 00:16:51,377
flirtatious, but I really don't
think she would ever cross that
325
00:16:51,443 --> 00:16:54,113
line.
And even if she did, trust me, I
326
00:16:54,179 --> 00:16:57,449
would totally rein her in.
>> Elena: My only real
327
00:16:57,516 --> 00:17:01,553
competition is his new job.
I mean, we used to spend so much
328
00:17:01,620 --> 00:17:04,957
time talking about our work
days, and now things are so
329
00:17:05,023 --> 00:17:08,594
different.
Honestly, I don't really get the
330
00:17:08,660 --> 00:17:11,997
universe he's navigating.
>> Amanda: Mm, I can relate.
331
00:17:12,064 --> 00:17:15,934
And just like you said, it is
not the same thing at all, but
332
00:17:16,001 --> 00:17:19,671
Nate's new job and Devon's
parenting, it does have a few
333
00:17:19,738 --> 00:17:23,909
things in common.
You see, Devon and Dom, they
334
00:17:23,976 --> 00:17:27,813
have this amazing bond.
It's like they're in their own
335
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,049
little world, and I'm so not
familiar with any of it.
336
00:17:31,116 --> 00:17:35,220
[ Chuckles ]
But I love seeing this side of
337
00:17:35,287 --> 00:17:39,491
Devon.
I love seeing him this happy.
338
00:17:39,558 --> 00:17:45,164
>> Elena: Wow.
That's really inspiring.
339
00:17:45,230 --> 00:17:46,999
You know what?
I think I'm gonna do the same
340
00:17:47,065 --> 00:17:49,535
thing.
I am gonna focus on the
341
00:17:49,601 --> 00:17:54,907
positive, relax, [Chuckles] and
share in Nate's joy.
342
00:17:54,973 --> 00:17:58,544
He was devastated when he found
out he couldn't perform surgery
343
00:17:58,610 --> 00:18:03,315
anymore, and now he wakes up so
excited to go to work every day.
344
00:18:03,382 --> 00:18:06,985
So I guess it doesn't matter if
I know what "incentivizing" or
345
00:18:07,052 --> 00:18:09,288
"core competency" mean.
>> Amanda: No.
346
00:18:09,354 --> 00:18:12,124
>> Elena: Because I do know that
my guy has never been happier.
347
00:18:12,191 --> 00:18:19,998
[ Chuckles ]
>> Allie: Oh, hey, you two.
348
00:18:20,065 --> 00:18:22,835
Where's Harrison?
I didn't see him at home.
349
00:18:22,901 --> 00:18:25,404
>> Summer: He is on a playdate
at my dad's house.
350
00:18:25,471 --> 00:18:27,539
>> Allie: Oh, well, apparently
Harrison has a more active
351
00:18:27,606 --> 00:18:29,808
social life than I do.
[ Both laugh ]
352
00:18:29,875 --> 00:18:32,010
>> Summer: You two should make a
playdate of your own.
353
00:18:32,077 --> 00:18:33,946
He's a big fan of yours.
>> Kyle: Yeah, when he gets
354
00:18:34,012 --> 00:18:35,881
home, I'm sure he'll talk your
ears off about all the fun
355
00:18:35,948 --> 00:18:40,385
adventures he had today.
>> Diane: Allie.
356
00:18:40,452 --> 00:18:43,655
>> Allie: Diane.
Hi, I didn't know you were still
357
00:18:43,722 --> 00:18:45,791
in town.
>> Diane: Oh, I'm sure there's
358
00:18:45,858 --> 00:18:48,293
quite a few people who wished
I'd cut my visit short.
359
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:50,896
>> Kyle: Well, she extended her
stay at my request.
360
00:18:50,963 --> 00:18:53,632
We've spent so much time apart,
I thought we could use the
361
00:18:53,699 --> 00:18:57,135
opportunity to get to know each
other better.
362
00:18:57,202 --> 00:18:59,204
>> Summer: Kyle and I are headed
back to the house.
363
00:18:59,271 --> 00:19:02,207
Do you need a lift?
>> Diane: No, don't go.
364
00:19:02,274 --> 00:19:03,942
Please stay.
I was really hoping we could
365
00:19:04,009 --> 00:19:08,881
catch up.
>> Allie: Um, yeah, yeah, okay.
366
00:19:08,947 --> 00:19:14,186
I'll see you guys back at the
house.
367
00:19:14,253 --> 00:19:15,988
>> Phyllis: Obviously I'm
digging myself in a hole here.
368
00:19:16,054 --> 00:19:17,523
>> Jack: Then stop.
>> Phyllis: I mean, I don't
369
00:19:17,589 --> 00:19:19,391
want to leave here with you
thinking these things about me.
370
00:19:19,458 --> 00:19:25,797
It's horrible.
Jack, this is real.
371
00:19:25,864 --> 00:19:29,768
We are real.
When I made love to you, that
372
00:19:29,835 --> 00:19:33,939
was real.
I like who I am around you,
373
00:19:34,006 --> 00:19:39,678
whether, you know, we're
laughing or...eating doughnuts
374
00:19:39,745 --> 00:19:42,648
under the clouds.
>> Jack: You still haven't
375
00:19:42,714 --> 00:19:45,384
answered my questions.
Why did you change your mind
376
00:19:45,450 --> 00:19:48,053
about us being together?
>> Phyllis: Okay, so you want to
377
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:51,056
know why I threw caution to the
wind and went for you so hard.
378
00:19:51,123 --> 00:19:54,493
That's what you want to know.
Okay, well, you better pull up a
379
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,863
chair, 'cause I have a lot of
things to say.
380
00:19:57,930 --> 00:19:59,565
>> Jack: Sounds like a lot of
rationalizing.
381
00:19:59,631 --> 00:20:01,733
>> Phyllis: No, it's not
rationalizing.
382
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:09,441
You listen to me.
I mean, I -- I love being around
383
00:20:09,508 --> 00:20:15,480
you.
And you're special and -- and I
384
00:20:15,547 --> 00:20:19,651
like what we have, and...I like
that you accept me and you trust
385
00:20:19,718 --> 00:20:22,020
me for the most part.
[ Chuckles ]
386
00:20:22,087 --> 00:20:27,025
And you still like me when I'm
irrational and I fly off the
387
00:20:27,092 --> 00:20:31,630
handle, which is a lot of times.
>> Jack: Phyllis, you can talk
388
00:20:31,697 --> 00:20:35,400
all day, trying to convince me
there's no truth to the words
389
00:20:35,467 --> 00:20:42,608
you hurled at Diane.
I heard them all.
390
00:20:42,674 --> 00:20:46,244
We cannot get around the fact
that you have held me at a
391
00:20:46,311 --> 00:20:52,217
distance for months now.
And suddenly, you changed your
392
00:20:52,284 --> 00:20:54,653
mind.
Something changed that.
393
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:59,625
>> Phyllis: But, see, who cares
what it was or when, why, how?
394
00:20:59,691 --> 00:21:03,395
It doesn't matter.
Why does that possibly matter?
395
00:21:03,462 --> 00:21:07,566
I want you.
I do.
396
00:21:07,633 --> 00:21:12,437
And Diane coming into town,
yeah, I mean, that did help.
397
00:21:12,504 --> 00:21:14,506
It made me see what was in front
of me, because I've been running
398
00:21:14,573 --> 00:21:23,548
away from it for so long.
We're happy, right?
399
00:21:23,615 --> 00:21:26,018
I'm the happiest I've been in a
really long time.
400
00:21:26,084 --> 00:21:29,888
Aren't you happy?
>> Jack: You know how happy I've
401
00:21:29,955 --> 00:21:30,989
been.
>> Phyllis: Okay.
402
00:21:31,056 --> 00:21:35,027
Then that's all that matters.
That we're happy.
403
00:21:35,093 --> 00:21:39,264
We've come so far.
Please don't tell me you want to
404
00:21:39,331 --> 00:21:42,167
give up on us now.
405
00:21:51,243 --> 00:21:53,245
>> "The Young and the Restless"
will continue.
406
00:22:12,898 --> 00:22:14,466
>> Diane: [ Sighs ]
>> Allie: Thanks for paying for
407
00:22:14,533 --> 00:22:16,468
coffee.
You really didn't need to do
408
00:22:16,535 --> 00:22:18,136
that.
>> Diane: Oh, after everything
409
00:22:18,203 --> 00:22:20,405
that's happened, we both know I
owe you more than a cup of
410
00:22:20,472 --> 00:22:24,943
coffee.
I -- I feel I owe you an
411
00:22:25,010 --> 00:22:27,779
apology, too.
I blind-sided you.
412
00:22:27,846 --> 00:22:31,416
Without any preparation or
warning, you found out you had
413
00:22:31,483 --> 00:22:35,687
an entire extended family.
It -- It wasn't a very nice
414
00:22:35,754 --> 00:22:39,524
thing to do.
And I'm sorry.
415
00:22:39,591 --> 00:22:44,963
>> Allie: It's okay.
Actually -- Actually, no, it's
416
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:48,166
not okay.
It was extremely self-serving of
417
00:22:48,233 --> 00:22:50,435
you.
I made my own decision to come
418
00:22:50,502 --> 00:22:54,106
to Genoa City and get to know my
family, and so far, it's -- it's
419
00:22:54,172 --> 00:22:56,641
been pretty good.
>> Diane: [ Chuckles ]
420
00:22:56,708 --> 00:22:58,844
Well, I'm glad to hear that.
>> Allie: Thanks.
421
00:22:58,910 --> 00:23:00,779
>> Diane: And I'm not at all
surprised.
422
00:23:00,846 --> 00:23:04,983
The Abbotts are warm and loving.
And I wouldn't have introduced
423
00:23:05,050 --> 00:23:07,819
you to your grandfather if I
hadn't known that he'd be
424
00:23:07,886 --> 00:23:11,156
thrilled to learn of your
existence and to welcome you
425
00:23:11,223 --> 00:23:13,625
with open arms.
>> Allie: Yeah, but that does
426
00:23:13,692 --> 00:23:16,862
not change the deceptive way you
went about it.
427
00:23:16,928 --> 00:23:20,365
>> Diane: You're right.
I should've handled it
428
00:23:20,432 --> 00:23:23,034
differently.
I could've explained the
429
00:23:23,101 --> 00:23:26,171
situation to you and given you a
choice, and the only reason I
430
00:23:26,238 --> 00:23:28,573
didn't is --
>> Allie: Is because you wanted
431
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,510
to get something out of it.
You wanted to use me to your
432
00:23:31,576 --> 00:23:34,346
advantage.
>> Diane: You're right.
433
00:23:34,412 --> 00:23:39,451
I did.
>> Adam: I admire your hopeful
434
00:23:39,518 --> 00:23:43,555
enthusiasm.
>> Sally: Oh, is that what I
435
00:23:43,622 --> 00:23:45,223
have?
>> Adam: Mm-hmm.
436
00:23:45,290 --> 00:23:48,927
In abundance.
But we are facing a real
437
00:23:48,994 --> 00:23:51,062
setback.
If Ashland's not around to
438
00:23:51,129 --> 00:23:54,099
occupy Victoria's time, I cannot
envision my father deciding to
439
00:23:54,166 --> 00:23:56,635
put me in charge.
>> Sally: Yeah, but how can he
440
00:23:56,701 --> 00:23:58,670
not see that you're the right
person for the job?
441
00:23:58,737 --> 00:24:00,505
I mean, you have all the
leadership qualities that he
442
00:24:00,572 --> 00:24:03,675
wants.
You have innovative ideas and
443
00:24:03,742 --> 00:24:07,712
sometimes -- forgive me for
saying this -- but you can be a
444
00:24:07,779 --> 00:24:09,815
little nasty.
>> Adam: [ Clears throat ]
445
00:24:09,881 --> 00:24:13,285
>> Sally: You embody all the
essential qualities of a CEO.
446
00:24:13,351 --> 00:24:16,221
>> Adam: Uh, well, thank you.
>> Sally: You're welcome.
447
00:24:16,288 --> 00:24:19,357
>> Adam: But you are still
fairly new around here.
448
00:24:19,424 --> 00:24:23,061
You haven't seen how many times
my father has dangled the CEO
449
00:24:23,128 --> 00:24:27,332
position in front of me, only to
rip it away at the last second.
450
00:24:27,399 --> 00:24:29,734
I mean, he's like a bull fighter
waving that thing in front of
451
00:24:29,801 --> 00:24:31,636
me.
>> Sally: [ Sighs ]
452
00:24:31,703 --> 00:24:34,439
Okay.
Well, the next time you have a
453
00:24:34,506 --> 00:24:37,876
shot at the CEO title, you are
gonna succeed because you have
454
00:24:37,943 --> 00:24:41,079
something now that you've never
had before.
455
00:24:41,146 --> 00:24:44,549
>> Adam: Oh, yeah, what's that?
>> Sally: Me.
456
00:24:44,616 --> 00:24:48,520
>> Adam: Well, I cannot argue
with that.
457
00:24:48,587 --> 00:24:52,090
>> Sally: You have been fighting
this fight all on your own.
458
00:24:52,157 --> 00:24:57,095
But now you have me on your
team, and we are unbeatable.
459
00:24:57,162 --> 00:25:01,099
>> Adam: Yes, we are.
>> Sally: So we just have to
460
00:25:01,166 --> 00:25:05,170
come up with a spectacular plan
"B" to get you in the big office
461
00:25:05,237 --> 00:25:08,907
in the big chair, just like you
deserve.
462
00:25:08,974 --> 00:25:14,012
But you know the best part?
We have time.
463
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:17,449
We're not desperate.
I mean, look around, you are
464
00:25:17,515 --> 00:25:21,219
running Newman Media and
succeeding.
465
00:25:21,286 --> 00:25:25,390
And I absolutely love working
with you.
466
00:25:25,457 --> 00:25:30,428
So we should just appreciate
what we have while keeping our
467
00:25:30,495 --> 00:25:36,167
eyes on the prize.
And be patient.
468
00:25:36,234 --> 00:25:50,148
And go slow.
>> Nate: I was about to jump in
469
00:25:50,215 --> 00:25:52,884
and make some suggestions about
growing the business
470
00:25:52,951 --> 00:25:56,688
relationship in light of the
merger, but I thought better of
471
00:25:56,755 --> 00:25:59,457
it.
>> Devon: How come?
472
00:25:59,524 --> 00:26:01,126
>> Nate: The timing didn't seem
right.
473
00:26:01,192 --> 00:26:03,962
Gwen was already saying she was
unnerved by all the changes.
474
00:26:04,029 --> 00:26:06,865
Last thing she needed was a
flood of new ideas coming from
475
00:26:06,932 --> 00:26:09,234
someone she had just met.
Probably not too reassuring
476
00:26:09,301 --> 00:26:11,670
while you're trying to convince
her that things weren't gonna be
477
00:26:11,736 --> 00:26:13,939
all that different.
>> Devon: That makes a lot of
478
00:26:14,005 --> 00:26:15,073
sense.
Very smart of you.
479
00:26:15,140 --> 00:26:18,209
I appreciate it.
But I want you to know that I do
480
00:26:18,276 --> 00:26:20,812
value your opinion, and when you
have thoughts, I want to hear
481
00:26:20,879 --> 00:26:22,981
them.
>> Nate: Doesn't mean you won't
482
00:26:23,048 --> 00:26:25,050
shoot them down, though, right?
>> Devon: No, it doesn't, 'cause
483
00:26:25,116 --> 00:26:26,418
it doesn't mean they're gonna be
good.
484
00:26:26,484 --> 00:26:30,121
But I do promise that I'll
always listen to you.
485
00:26:30,188 --> 00:26:32,991
>> Nate: Cool.
Well, guess we'd better head
486
00:26:33,058 --> 00:26:35,060
over to the meeting at
The Grand Phoenix.
487
00:26:35,126 --> 00:26:41,199
>> Devon: Yeah, let's do it.
>> Lily: Who is in charge of the
488
00:26:41,266 --> 00:26:43,668
swag bags for the launch?
>> Imani: I'm pretty sure Nate
489
00:26:43,735 --> 00:26:46,538
volunteered, which means they'll
get done and get done right.
490
00:26:46,604 --> 00:26:49,107
>> Lily: [ Chuckles ]
I know, he's really hit the
491
00:26:49,174 --> 00:26:51,943
ground running, right?
He's been such a great addition
492
00:26:52,010 --> 00:26:54,212
to the team.
>> Imani: Don't expect me to be
493
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:56,181
objective as far as
Nate Hastings goes.
494
00:26:56,247 --> 00:26:58,883
I've been a fan since he was
Dr. AskMDNow.
495
00:26:58,950 --> 00:27:01,052
>> Lily: Oh, do you know it was
my idea to have him be the
496
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:02,921
spokesperson?
I had to beg him to take the
497
00:27:02,988 --> 00:27:04,055
job.
[ Chuckles ]
498
00:27:04,122 --> 00:27:05,523
>> Imani: Well, you couldn't
have made a better choice.
499
00:27:05,590 --> 00:27:08,426
There's just something about
Nate that makes you feel like
500
00:27:08,493 --> 00:27:13,365
you can trust him with your
life.
501
00:27:13,431 --> 00:27:16,267
>> Phyllis: I mean, I think what
we have is worth fighting for.
502
00:27:16,334 --> 00:27:18,903
>> Jack: Who do you think we're
fighting?
503
00:27:18,970 --> 00:27:22,040
Diane?
Are we supposed to stay together
504
00:27:22,107 --> 00:27:24,275
for the very reason we
apparently got together -- to
505
00:27:24,342 --> 00:27:25,610
spite her?
>> Phyllis: That's not my point
506
00:27:25,677 --> 00:27:33,385
at all.
>> Summer: Hi.
507
00:27:33,451 --> 00:27:35,086
>> Phyllis: Hey.
>> Jack: Hey.
508
00:27:35,153 --> 00:27:37,856
Where's Harrison?
>> Kyle: He's on a playdate with
509
00:27:37,922 --> 00:27:40,258
Christian.
>> Phyllis: Oh, with Christian.
510
00:27:40,325 --> 00:27:42,861
That's sweet.
>> Summer: What's going on here?
511
00:27:42,927 --> 00:27:46,965
Did we interrupt something?
>> Phyllis: No.
512
00:27:47,032 --> 00:27:52,003
I have to get back to the hotel.
Unless maybe --
513
00:27:52,070 --> 00:27:56,908
>> Jack: Don't let me keep you.
>> Phyllis: Alright.
514
00:28:06,284 --> 00:28:09,621
>> Kyle: Sorry, Dad.
I get the feeling our timing
515
00:28:09,687 --> 00:28:13,091
wasn't exactly the best.
>> Jack: It's nothing for you to
516
00:28:13,158 --> 00:28:15,093
worry about.
Phyllis and I said everything
517
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:19,631
that needs to be said.
>> Summer: That doesn't sound
518
00:28:19,697 --> 00:28:22,000
good.
I'm gonna go catch up with my
519
00:28:22,067 --> 00:28:24,536
mom.
Jack, I'll see you later.
520
00:28:30,909 --> 00:28:33,211
>> Jack: So did you get to the
office today?
521
00:28:33,278 --> 00:28:35,547
>> Kyle: Not yet.
I was gonna go in later this
522
00:28:35,613 --> 00:28:37,715
afternoon.
>> Jack: Good.
523
00:28:37,782 --> 00:28:39,784
How's the rest of your day
going?
524
00:28:39,851 --> 00:28:42,053
>> Kyle: Better than yours, I
think.
525
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,356
Want to tell me what's going on?
526
00:28:51,429 --> 00:28:53,832
>> Kyle: Are you going to tell
me what happened?
527
00:28:53,898 --> 00:28:55,667
>> Jack: Gee, what makes you
think something happened?
528
00:28:55,733 --> 00:28:58,336
>> Kyle: It's pretty obvious
something's going on between you
529
00:28:58,403 --> 00:28:59,737
and Phyllis.
>> Jack: You know what?
530
00:28:59,804 --> 00:29:01,406
Don't worry about it.
Phyllis and I will work our way
531
00:29:01,473 --> 00:29:04,609
through it.
>> Kyle: I'm sure you can.
532
00:29:04,676 --> 00:29:07,579
But I'm happy to lend an ear if
you want.
533
00:29:07,645 --> 00:29:09,981
God knows you've been a patient
listener these past few weeks
534
00:29:10,048 --> 00:29:12,350
while I struggled with how to
handle this situation with my
535
00:29:12,417 --> 00:29:14,085
mother.
>> Jack: Actually, that reminds
536
00:29:14,152 --> 00:29:15,787
me of something I wanted to tell
you.
537
00:29:15,854 --> 00:29:19,657
>> Kyle: If it's about my mother
and Ashland making each other's
538
00:29:19,724 --> 00:29:23,361
acquaintance, I already heard.
Summer and I ran into her at the
539
00:29:23,428 --> 00:29:25,597
Crimson Lights.
She told me that you warned her
540
00:29:25,663 --> 00:29:27,332
about keeping her distance from
Ashland.
541
00:29:27,398 --> 00:29:30,034
>> Jack: I made it as clear to
her as possible that man is
542
00:29:30,101 --> 00:29:31,669
poison.
>> Kyle: Dealing with him is the
543
00:29:31,736 --> 00:29:33,738
last thing she needs while she's
trying to put her life back
544
00:29:33,805 --> 00:29:37,108
together.
>> Jack: Uh-huh.
545
00:29:37,175 --> 00:29:39,777
>> Kyle: Dad, I can tell you're
still thinking about Phyllis.
546
00:29:39,844 --> 00:29:42,180
Sure you don't want to talk
about it?
547
00:29:42,247 --> 00:29:45,216
>> Jack: Remember the other day
I told you that I wasn't at all
548
00:29:45,283 --> 00:29:47,819
confident things would go
smoothly for the two of us?
549
00:29:47,886 --> 00:29:52,323
That was 'cause Phyllis is so
unpredictable, and actually more
550
00:29:52,390 --> 00:29:55,693
accurately, she's so completely
predictable.
551

[ Cellphone rings ]
This is Andrew in R&D.
552
00:29:59,697 --> 00:30:01,766
I better take this.
>> Kyle: Go ahead.
553
00:30:01,833 --> 00:30:04,903
>> Jack: Hey, Andrew.
I got the brief that you sent
554
00:30:04,969 --> 00:30:06,471
me.
Yeah, those are some pretty
555
00:30:06,538 --> 00:30:11,075
clever ideas.
>> Diane: It seems like you had
556
00:30:11,142 --> 00:30:14,612
a chance to get to know my son.
>> Allie: Yeah, yeah, Kyle's
557
00:30:14,679 --> 00:30:16,681
great.
And so is Summer.
558
00:30:16,748 --> 00:30:19,350
They make a lovely couple.
>> Diane: Yes, they do.

[ Chuckles ]
It's so wonderful to see Kyle in
560
00:30:22,253 --> 00:30:25,490
a healthy, stable, loving
relationship.
561
00:30:25,557 --> 00:30:27,792
He didn't have the benefit of
being raised in that
562
00:30:27,859 --> 00:30:29,761
environment.
As hard as I tried, I just
563
00:30:29,827 --> 00:30:32,997
couldn't provide him with that
example.
564
00:30:33,064 --> 00:30:37,335
And neither could Jack, despite
all his wonderful qualities.
565
00:30:37,402 --> 00:30:42,674
But I'm just so relieved that,
against all odds, Kyle found
566
00:30:42,740 --> 00:30:46,544
that magic.
>> Allie: Yes, they seem quite
567
00:30:46,611 --> 00:30:48,379
happy.
>> Diane: Yeah, and Harrison.
568
00:30:48,446 --> 00:30:50,582
[ Chuckles ]
I've only met him a few times,
569
00:30:50,648 --> 00:30:54,619
but, oh, he's adorable.
He doesn't know I'm his
570
00:30:54,686 --> 00:30:58,056
grandmother yet, but hopefully
soon, and we decided that he's
571
00:30:58,122 --> 00:31:00,425
going to call me DeeDee.
>> Allie: Wow.
572
00:31:00,491 --> 00:31:03,461
Well, I guess everything seemed
to have worked out quite well
573
00:31:03,528 --> 00:31:06,297
for you.
I hope it was worth whatever it
574
00:31:06,364 --> 00:31:09,334
took for you to become part of
their lives.
575
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:13,204

Okay, Allie.
576
00:31:13,271 --> 00:31:18,309

responsibility towards you.

00:31:18,376 --> 00:31:20,745
>> Allie: You do?
>> Diane: Yes.
578
00:31:20,812 --> 00:31:24,148
And that's why I wanted to check
in and see how you're doing and
579
00:31:24,215 --> 00:31:26,651
make sure you have everything
you need.
580
00:31:26,718 --> 00:31:30,221
And the Abbotts are kind and
generous, but there is a lot
581
00:31:30,288 --> 00:31:34,125
going on in that house.
And I don't know, it might be
582
00:31:34,192 --> 00:31:38,396
easy to feel overlooked.
>> Allie: Listen, Diane, I don't
583
00:31:38,463 --> 00:31:41,933
mean to be unkind here, but if I
needed something, I'd be more
584
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,203
likely to go ask the Abbotts
than you.
585
00:31:45,270 --> 00:31:48,239
>> Diane: Would you?
Really?
586
00:31:48,306 --> 00:31:50,708
Because you don't strike me as
the kind of person who'd want to

00:31:50,775 --> 00:31:56,314
call attention to yourself.
>> Devon: So how was your visit

Yeah.

She's happy with the merger and
loves the roll-out marketing
591
00:32:01,786 --> 00:32:03,821

loves it, too.
592
00:32:03,888 --> 00:32:05,123
>> Devon: That's great.
That's great.
593
00:32:05,189 --> 00:32:06,357
It's full steam ahead for us
then.
594
00:32:06,424 --> 00:32:08,526
>> Lily: Yeah.
And then Billy brought me up to

speed on the compromise that you
reached.
596
00:32:10,561 --> 00:32:13,398
So I guess we'll just figure out
which initiatives to launch
597
00:32:13,464 --> 00:32:16,100
first and how to fit their
announcement into our agenda.
598
00:32:16,167 --> 00:32:18,670
>> Nate: We could do it after
Lily and Devon's welcome
599
00:32:18,736 --> 00:32:21,506

makes the new company special.

>> Imani: That's a good idea.
>> Devon: I don't know if it is.
601
00:32:24,842 --> 00:32:26,144
Do we not want to build up to
it?
602
00:32:26,210 --> 00:32:28,813
>> Nate: Well, we can fit it in
after the introductions of our
603
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,482
management team.
>> Imani: That's brilliant, and
604
00:32:31,549 --> 00:32:34,152
then they can each introduce the
platform.
605
00:32:34,218 --> 00:32:37,355
>> Lily: Well, I mean, it could
work, but I wonder, do we save
606
00:32:37,422 --> 00:32:40,858
it for a bigger finale moment?
>> Nate: Sure, then we can end
607
00:32:40,925 --> 00:32:44,128

reveal of our new logo.

I was not.

00:34:40,678 --> 00:34:43,080
way, but I don't completely
trust you.
640
00:34:43,147 --> 00:34:47,885
And not that I'm angry or upset
with how things turned out, but
641
00:34:47,952 --> 00:34:52,056
I have been warned about you.
And although you were
642
00:34:52,123 --> 00:34:56,360
wonderfully nice to me in LA,
you were also lying.
643
00:34:56,427 --> 00:34:59,030
>> Diane: I get it.
It makes perfect sense to keep
644
00:34:59,096 --> 00:35:01,632
your guard up around someone you
just met who made your
645
00:35:01,699 --> 00:35:04,435
acquaintance under false
pretenses.
646
00:35:04,502 --> 00:35:07,772
But it can't hurt to have new
friends, right?
647
00:35:07,839 --> 00:35:12,710
And I am hoping that someday
down the road, you might accept
648
00:35:12,777 --> 00:35:18,282
me as one of them.
>> Phyllis: You're lovely to
649
00:35:18,349 --> 00:35:20,718
check on me.
Nothing's going on, you know?
650
00:35:20,785 --> 00:35:23,120
It -- It's -- It'll work itself
out.
651
00:35:23,187 --> 00:35:25,756
>> Summer: I am not buying this
phony positivity.
652
00:35:25,823 --> 00:35:27,892
I can see that you are upset.
>> Phyllis: Oh, come on.
653
00:35:27,959 --> 00:35:30,595
I'm emotional, Summer.
You know that about me.
654
00:35:30,661 --> 00:35:34,599
Don't worry about it.
It -- It's nothing, really.
655
00:35:34,665 --> 00:35:37,335
>> Summer: You know, Mom, we're
a lot alike.
656
00:35:37,401 --> 00:35:40,938
This is reminding me of when I
was dealing with all of Sally's
657
00:35:41,005 --> 00:35:43,508
scheming.
I was desperately trying to keep
658
00:35:43,574 --> 00:35:47,211
all of my anxiety inside.
>> Phyllis: That's not the same.
659
00:35:47,278 --> 00:35:49,480
>> Summer: Okay, well, if it's
no big deal, then you should
660
00:35:49,547 --> 00:35:51,249
have no problem telling me
what's going on.
661
00:35:51,315 --> 00:35:53,184
>> Phyllis: Summer!
Summer!
662
00:35:53,251 --> 00:35:56,487
I said it's not a big deal.
Drop it.
663
00:35:56,554 --> 00:36:01,192
Really.
>> Summer: [ Sighs ]
664
00:36:01,259 --> 00:36:04,529
No.
Not until you tell me what is
665
00:36:04,595 --> 00:36:11,836
going on.
>> Phyllis: I don't want to get
666
00:36:11,903 --> 00:36:15,840
into this with you.
>> Summer: Why?
667
00:36:15,907 --> 00:36:21,913
>> Phyllis: Summer, something is
very wrong.
668
00:36:21,979 --> 00:36:24,549
I screwed up.
