Whatever the reason,
it's adorable.

It's like he jumped into bed
in that position and then just

All this joy he brings us

You're actually
serious about that?

You brought out the best,

See, that's more like it.
No, I, uh --

I don't think that I brought out

of different directions.

strong argument for him to drop

I respected that he has to do
what he feels he has to do.

that my children and my family

of what happened that night.

your cockamamie hypothesis
is correct.

Let's assume that I sent
my security team into the house,
68
00:04:09,182 --> 00:04:14,387
to pick up Ashland Locke's body,
put it into his car,
69
00:04:14,454 --> 00:04:18,291
and have them stage an accident
in the ravine,
70
00:04:18,358 --> 00:04:21,961
give you the impression that
Ashland Locke died by himself.
71
00:04:22,028 --> 00:04:24,464
And let's assume that I did that
to protect my son and my
72

that they weren't innocent

nothing would make me feel

Chance doesn't have
enough evidence.

to the D.A. by now.

out to get me?

interested in telling Johnny

who his biological mother is.

with her.
>> Victoria: Exactly.
114
00:06:55,948 --> 00:06:59,418
The decision to give Johnny this
information was left to our

discretion completely.
>> Nikki: [ Sighs ]

On the other hand,
she's not the same woman she was

when you made that arrangement.
She's not a con artist anymore.

She's a mother herself now.
>> Victoria: That's all true.

>> Nikki: And I do think
keeping information like that

problems later on.
121

you think I should break the

>> No. You're his mother.
123
00:07:26,546 --> 00:07:29,615
He's your son.
You're the only mother he's

I don't know what our boundaries
are yet.
128
00:07:40,393 --> 00:07:42,762
I figure, since we're working

>> Billy: Is that so?
130
00:07:44,363 --> 00:07:46,299

I'm really not.
I was just a little bit

surprised.
But I think you're right.
135

The more open and honest we are,
the more authentic the

>> Chelsea: Exactly.
137
00:08:02,415 --> 00:08:04,984
Like we said, the audience will
know if we're being fake.
138
00:08:05,051 --> 00:08:08,888
So back to my original question.
What happened between

you and Victoria?
>> Billy: [ Sighs ]
140
00:08:12,191 --> 00:08:17,897
There's really not one answer to
explain why we didn't work out,
141
00:08:17,964 --> 00:08:20,366
except for maybe the fact that
I've never been able to hold on
142
00:08:20,433 --> 00:08:24,437
to a winning streak.
Truth is, it was
143
00:08:24,503 --> 00:08:27,273
never her fault.
You know?
144
00:08:27,340 --> 00:08:30,309
I mean, she did everything she
could to keep me on the path.
145
00:08:30,376 --> 00:08:33,579
And, uh, I don't know,
for whatever reason, I would
146
00:08:33,646 --> 00:08:37,717
always find a way to slip up.
But it was never her fault.
147
00:08:37,783 --> 00:08:40,086
And that's not me being
self-effacing or trying
148
00:08:40,152 --> 00:08:42,288
to protect her in any way.
It's just the truth.
149
00:08:42,355 --> 00:08:47,026
She was never the cause of me
being at my worst.
150
00:08:47,093 --> 00:08:49,395
>> Chelsea: Oh, that's not what
I meant when I said that.
151
00:08:49,462 --> 00:08:52,064
I just meant, you know, you guys
brought up the extremes
152
00:08:52,131 --> 00:08:53,332
in each other.
>> Billy: Yeah.
153
00:08:53,399 --> 00:08:55,001
>> Chelsea: But I don't think
you're like that anymore.
154
00:08:55,067 --> 00:08:56,702
You know, you're a lot more
in control, a lot more mature.
155
00:08:56,769 --> 00:08:58,838
You've -- You've calmed that
wild side.
156
00:08:58,905 --> 00:09:01,007
>> Billy: You've got a talent
for coming up with new ways to

00:09:01,073 --> 00:09:03,009
call me boring.
>> Chelsea: Tat's not my
158
00:09:03,075 --> 00:09:04,710
intention.
It's not.

how you see yourself?

164
00:09:23,329 --> 00:09:24,797
soon.
There's been some developments
165
00:09:24,864 --> 00:09:28,167
in the case.
>> Nick: That's good for you,
166
00:09:28,234 --> 00:09:30,036
I guess.
>> Chance: Yeah.
167
00:09:30,102 --> 00:09:32,838
I'd like to sit down with you
and Victoria and your dad in the
168
00:09:32,905 --> 00:09:34,807
morning.
We can talk about how things
169
00:09:34,874 --> 00:09:39,912
are gonna proceed from here.
>> Nick: Well, Chance, I don't
170
00:09:39,979 --> 00:09:42,181
see any reason why we need to
prolong.
171
00:09:42,248 --> 00:09:45,718
Vick's out at the ranch with Dad
right now.
172
00:09:45,785 --> 00:09:48,187
Let's go out there and handle
this tonight.
173
00:09:48,254 --> 00:09:50,656
>> Chance: You'd be up for that?
>> Nick: The sooner, the better,
174
00:09:50,723 --> 00:09:53,659
as far as I'm concerned.
>> Chance: Okay.
175
00:09:53,726 --> 00:09:56,062
Let's go to the ranch.
176
00:10:10,042 --> 00:10:12,278
>> Diane: Come to think of it,
Kyle used to sleep like that.
177
00:10:12,345 --> 00:10:14,880
Remember? Thank you.
>> Jack: No, I don't.
178
00:10:14,947 --> 00:10:18,184
>> Diane: Guess I noticed it
when he would have a bad dream
179
00:10:18,250 --> 00:10:21,153
and then come into my room
in the middle of the night.
180
00:10:21,220 --> 00:10:25,124
He would crawl into bed with me
and then spread out,
181
00:10:25,191 --> 00:10:28,894
just like Harrison, and this --
this little three-year-old
182
00:10:28,961 --> 00:10:31,630
taking up the whole bed.
I would just go sleep
183
00:10:31,697 --> 00:10:35,601
on the sofa.
>> Jack: No, I-I don't recall
184
00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:41,107
that.
>> Diane: Oh, I think that was
185
00:10:41,173 --> 00:10:46,445
when I left Genoa City with him.
I look back on that time
186
00:10:46,512 --> 00:10:49,081
with such regret.
No wonder he was having
187
00:10:49,148 --> 00:10:52,985
bad dreams.
I was keeping him from you.
188
00:10:53,052 --> 00:10:57,957
It wasn't fair, Jack.
And I'm -- I'm sorry.
189
00:10:58,024 --> 00:11:01,394
>> Jack: Water under the bridge.
>> Diane: And now it seems like
190
00:11:01,460 --> 00:11:03,896
history is kind of repeating
itself.
191
00:11:03,963 --> 00:11:07,099
>> Jack: Wait. How so?
>> Diane: Well, Kyle missed out
192
00:11:07,166 --> 00:11:09,735
on the first few years
of Harrison's life.
193
00:11:09,802 --> 00:11:12,004
>> Jack: That was a very
different situation.
194
00:11:12,071 --> 00:11:16,675
I -- I didn't mean that to sound
like I was taking a shot at you,
195
00:11:16,742 --> 00:11:20,079
but we both have spent enough
time and energy on past
196
00:11:20,146 --> 00:11:22,715
resentments.
>> Diane: Yes.
197
00:11:22,782 --> 00:11:25,684
The last time we talked about
the wounds from our past,
198
00:11:25,751 --> 00:11:29,288
you were a bit more
antagonistic with me.
199
00:11:29,355 --> 00:11:33,926
Rightfully so.
But, um, I kind of appreciate
200
00:11:33,993 --> 00:11:37,263
the kinder, gentler approach
you're taking with me tonight.
201
00:11:37,329 --> 00:11:39,632
>> Jack: I still don't think
we should sweep everything
202
00:11:39,698 --> 00:11:43,202
from the past under the rug.
>> Diane: No, and I -- I don't
203
00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:45,571
want to gloss over what
happened.
204
00:11:45,638 --> 00:11:47,540
There are so many people
in this town who won't
205
00:11:47,606 --> 00:11:51,944
let me forget any of it.
But you seem to have found a way
206
00:11:52,011 --> 00:11:56,949
to rise above that pettiness.
>> Jack: You've made a lot of
207
00:11:57,016 --> 00:11:59,118
claims about doing the same
thing.
208
00:11:59,185 --> 00:12:03,789
Do you really think you can
let go of past resentments?
209
00:12:03,856 --> 00:12:09,328
>> Diane: Uh, well, for years,
I -- I held on to grudges.
210
00:12:09,395 --> 00:12:13,032
They fueled me.
Jack, I can't believe how much
211
00:12:13,099 --> 00:12:16,769
my life has changed in a year.
I mean, I still have regrets.
212
00:12:16,836 --> 00:12:23,442
And Kyle's pain tops the list.
But here I am, having a life
213
00:12:23,509 --> 00:12:27,413
that I could have only
dreamed of.
214
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,916
I'm rebuilding my relationship
with my son, I'm getting to know
215
00:12:30,983 --> 00:12:35,187
my grandson.
And I have an exciting, new job
216
00:12:35,254 --> 00:12:37,990
that allows me to buy you dinner
once in a while.
217
00:12:38,057 --> 00:12:41,293
>> Jack: [ Chuckles ]
>> Diane: It's unreal.
218
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,231
Almost as unreal as the
two of us sitting here together.
219
00:12:45,297 --> 00:12:46,699
>> Jack: It's all pretty
amazing.
220
00:12:46,765 --> 00:12:49,635
>> Diane: Yeah.
>> Jack: But what do you really
221
00:12:49,702 --> 00:12:54,440
want?
>> Billy: You're killing me with
222
00:12:54,507 --> 00:12:55,741
these questions.
You know that?
223
00:12:55,808 --> 00:12:58,144
>> Chelsea: I'm just trying
to get you to open up, give us
224
00:12:58,210 --> 00:13:01,814
some material for the podcast.
>> Billy: Right. Okay.
225
00:13:01,881 --> 00:13:07,786
Well, to answer your question,
no, I don't think I'm boring.
226
00:13:07,853 --> 00:13:10,022
>> Chelsea: [ Sighs ]
But do you miss
227
00:13:10,089 --> 00:13:13,025
who you used to be?
>> Billy: I'm uh --
228
00:13:13,092 --> 00:13:15,694
I mean, I think everybody
looks back on their past
229
00:13:15,761 --> 00:13:18,297
at a certain age
and feels a little nostalgia
230
00:13:18,364 --> 00:13:21,834
for their youth.
I will also say that
231
00:13:21,901 --> 00:13:26,238
that troublemaking side of me is
embedded pretty deep in there.
232
00:13:26,305 --> 00:13:29,008
At least, that's what my family
believes anyway.
233
00:13:29,074 --> 00:13:31,410
>> Chelsea: Who thinks that?
>> Billy: Oh, everybody thinks
234
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:33,345
that.
I mean, my mom, my brother,
235
00:13:33,412 --> 00:13:36,182
they don't believe that
I'll ever be able to grow up.
236
00:13:36,248 --> 00:13:38,217
I will always
self-sabotage myself.
237
00:13:38,284 --> 00:13:41,420
And when my mom said that just a
few weeks ago, we were talking
238
00:13:41,487 --> 00:13:43,689
about the podcast.
She believes that's a gateway
239
00:13:43,756 --> 00:13:46,892
to the old destructive behavior.
>> Chelsea: Oh, she's just being
240
00:13:46,959 --> 00:13:49,028
overprotective.
Just pushing your buttons
241
00:13:49,094 --> 00:13:52,164
as only a mom can.
>> Billy: Yeah, maybe so.
242
00:13:52,231 --> 00:13:55,034
>> Chelsea: Your mom's not here.
She doesn't get to see you
243
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:56,502
on a daily basis,
so she doesn't recognize
244
00:13:56,569 --> 00:13:59,638
how much you've changed.
Now, Lily -- Lily is the person
245
00:13:59,705 --> 00:14:03,542
whose opinion matters most.
>> Billy: Yeah, I don't think --
246
00:14:03,609 --> 00:14:06,045
Lily's opinion of me isn't much
better.
247
00:14:06,111 --> 00:14:11,617
We had a little, uh, discussion,
and it sounds like she wants me
248
00:14:11,684 --> 00:14:16,956
to quit the podcasts.
>> Victor: If you want my
249
00:14:17,022 --> 00:14:19,525
opinion, I think it would be a
mistake to tell Johnny about
250
00:14:19,592 --> 00:14:21,760
Chelsea.
It would only confuse the boy.
251
00:14:21,827 --> 00:14:24,096
>> Nikki: Darling, you, of all
people, should understand the
252
00:14:24,163 --> 00:14:27,967
importance of knowing where you
came from, who your parents are.
253
00:14:28,033 --> 00:14:29,802
>> Victor: Sweetheart, there's a
time for that.
254
00:14:29,868 --> 00:14:32,137
This is not it.
>> Victoria: Also, Johnny is
255
00:14:32,204 --> 00:14:34,306
dealing with the loss of
Ashland.
256
00:14:34,373 --> 00:14:36,141
I don't think it would be smart
to pile all this
257
00:14:36,208 --> 00:14:38,811
on top of him right now.
I know Ashland wasn't his
258
00:14:38,877 --> 00:14:41,947
stepfather for very long, but
the children still feel
259
00:14:42,014 --> 00:14:43,515
the loss.
>> Nikki: I agree with you about
260
00:14:43,582 --> 00:14:46,418
the timing,
but I do think it would be best
261
00:14:46,485 --> 00:14:50,189
to tell him at some point.
>> Nick: You're all still here.
262
00:14:50,256 --> 00:14:51,824
Good.
>> Victoria: Is everything okay?
263
00:14:51,890 --> 00:14:54,593
>> Nikki: What's going on?
>> Victor: Why are you so late?
264
00:14:54,660 --> 00:14:56,395
>> Nick: Chance is gonna be here
any minute.
265
00:14:56,462 --> 00:15:00,366
[ Telephone rings ]
>> Victor: Yes?
266
00:15:00,432 --> 00:15:02,568
Send him in.
>> Nikki: [ Sighs ]
267
00:15:02,635 --> 00:15:04,737
>> Nick: Apparently, Chance has
uncovered some new information
268
00:15:04,803 --> 00:15:07,006
and he's ready to move forward.
>> Victoria: What
269
00:15:07,072 --> 00:15:09,041
does that mean?
>> Nick: I don't know, but I
270
00:15:09,108 --> 00:15:11,110
didn't like the sound of it,
so I convinced him
271
00:15:11,176 --> 00:15:13,379
to come out here and talk to us.
>> Victor: This going to be
272
00:15:13,445 --> 00:15:16,949
a courtesy call,
or is he bringing handcuffs?
273
00:15:17,016 --> 00:15:19,418
>> Nick: I don't know, Dad.
>> Victor: What was his
274
00:15:19,485 --> 00:15:20,986
demeanor?
>> Nick: Somber.
275
00:15:21,053 --> 00:15:23,622
He seemed weighted down,
but he didn't hesitate when
276
00:15:23,689 --> 00:15:26,258
I invited him to come out here
and speak to us.
277
00:15:26,325 --> 00:15:30,496
Maybe that's a good sign.
[ Footsteps approaching ]
278
00:15:30,562 --> 00:15:32,831
>> Chance: Hello, everyone.
>> Victor: Hello, Chance.
279
00:15:32,898 --> 00:15:34,466
>> Chance: Thank you
for meeting with me.
280
00:15:34,533 --> 00:15:37,970
I think this will be helpful.
>> Victor: Oh, yeah?
281
00:15:38,037 --> 00:15:41,140
Helpful to you or to us?
>> Chance: For the process,
282
00:15:41,206 --> 00:15:44,310
Victor.
Now, I really just need to speak
283
00:15:44,376 --> 00:15:45,944
with the people directly
involved.
284
00:15:46,011 --> 00:15:47,913
>> Nikki: Oh.
Does that mean
285
00:15:47,980 --> 00:15:50,416
I'm supposed to leave the room?
>> Victor: No, you're not
286
00:15:50,482 --> 00:15:53,519
supposed to leave the room.
You can say whatever you want to
287
00:15:53,585 --> 00:15:56,188
say in front of Nikki, okay?
>> Chance: Okay. That's fine.
288
00:15:56,255 --> 00:15:59,058
>> Victoria: It's late.
Can we begin this conversation?
289
00:15:59,124 --> 00:16:01,260
>> Chance: Sure.
But Nick may have misled you
290
00:16:01,327 --> 00:16:06,131
about why I'm here.
This is not a conversation.
291
00:16:06,198 --> 00:16:09,201
I just need all of you to please
listen to what I have to say.
292
00:16:20,346 --> 00:16:21,780
>> Chance: Here's what I have
so far.
293
00:16:21,847 --> 00:16:24,550
A witness spotted Ashland's
vehicle at a gas station
294
00:16:24,616 --> 00:16:27,753
near Victoria's property.
There was security footage
295
00:16:27,820 --> 00:16:31,457
of someone driving that vehicle
away from that gas station right
296
00:16:31,523 --> 00:16:34,760
after you called me that night.
Now, the image is not clear,
297
00:16:34,827 --> 00:16:37,529
but we have determined
that it is not Ashland.
298
00:16:37,596 --> 00:16:41,300
>> Nikki: SO, he had an
accomplice or he hired a driver.
299
00:16:41,367 --> 00:16:43,102
>> Chance: Let me finish,
please.
300
00:16:43,168 --> 00:16:45,337
Thank you.
Now, while it does not look like
301
00:16:45,404 --> 00:16:48,107
Ashland, he does bear a
resemblance to one of Victor's
302
00:16:48,173 --> 00:16:51,210
security guards -- one of the
men assigned to Victoria's house
303
00:16:51,276 --> 00:16:52,778
that night.
>> Victor: He could resemble
304
00:16:52,845 --> 00:16:54,646
a million people.
>> Chance: He might.
305
00:16:54,713 --> 00:16:57,116
But he smokes.
A cigarette butt was found where
306
00:16:57,182 --> 00:17:00,219
Ashland's car was parked at the
gas station -- his brand.
307
00:17:00,285 --> 00:17:03,856
Now, the security footage
from the gas station has gaps,
308
00:17:03,922 --> 00:17:05,557
including where Ashland
would have got there
309
00:17:05,624 --> 00:17:08,894
and when he would have left.
We also have Ashland's ring,
310
00:17:08,961 --> 00:17:11,363
which was found on the floor
at Victoria's house,
311
00:17:11,430 --> 00:17:14,500
and it is very unlikely that
that ring fell out of his pocket
312
00:17:14,566 --> 00:17:16,468
when he was walking
out of the house,
313
00:17:16,535 --> 00:17:18,971
but more probable
that it fell out of his pocket
314
00:17:19,037 --> 00:17:23,175
when he was being carried
or dragged out of the house.
315
00:17:23,242 --> 00:17:26,578
>> Victor: It's all
suppositions -- cigarette butt,
316
00:17:26,645 --> 00:17:28,547
apiece of jewelry.
Come on.
317
00:17:28,614 --> 00:17:31,350
>> Chance: There's more.
The latest piece of evidence
318
00:17:31,417 --> 00:17:35,988
is a bloody fingerprint found
on the door handle of the car.
319
00:17:36,054 --> 00:17:39,992
And the blood is Ashland's.
The print is not.
320
00:17:40,058 --> 00:17:43,829
So, no, this is no longer
a supposition.
321
00:17:43,896 --> 00:17:47,533
And once I compare that print
to your security guards, I'm
322
00:17:47,599 --> 00:17:51,303
pretty sure I'll have a match.
>> Victor: It won't stand up
323
00:17:51,370 --> 00:17:53,172
in court.
>> Chance: Indictments have been
324
00:17:53,238 --> 00:17:54,873
made with less.
>> Victor: I tell you,
325
00:17:54,940 --> 00:17:57,910
you've got nothing.
Right?
326
00:18:01,413 --> 00:18:03,315
>> Chelsea: I can't believe
Lily wants you to walk away from
327
00:18:03,382 --> 00:18:04,516
the podcast.
>> Billy: Let's not get ahead
328
00:18:04,583 --> 00:18:06,185
of ourselves.
She didn't outright say that.
329
00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:08,787
I'm just saying,
it seems like she would be happy
330
00:18:08,854 --> 00:18:12,057
if I either walked away from
being the COO or the podcast,
331
00:18:12,124 --> 00:18:14,059
but she doesn't think
I should be able to do both.
332
00:18:14,126 --> 00:18:16,395
>> Chelsea: That's not true.
>> Billy: Well, she feels like
333
00:18:16,462 --> 00:18:19,131
I'm spending too much time
focusing on the podcast, and I
334
00:18:19,198 --> 00:18:22,534
know what other people aren't
saying -- that I'm using it as a
335
00:18:22,601 --> 00:18:25,037
way to avoid my responsibility
at Chancellor-Winters.
336
00:18:25,103 --> 00:18:27,439
>> Chelsea: Well, I disagree.
The podcasts are a perfect fit
337
00:18:27,506 --> 00:18:30,008
for you.
No offense,
338
00:18:30,075 --> 00:18:32,578
but I said it before.
You're not a corporate guy.
339
00:18:32,644 --> 00:18:34,780
>> Billy: None taken.
>> Chelsea: You're a sensible
340
00:18:34,847 --> 00:18:36,882
risk-taker like me.
You know, you take chances on
341
00:18:36,949 --> 00:18:39,351
love and life and the world.
>> Billy: I hear you.
342
00:18:39,418 --> 00:18:41,553
But I will say, Lily's got
a pretty sharp insight,
343
00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:45,624
and I trust her.
She has not steered me wrong
344
00:18:45,691 --> 00:18:49,661
yet, so maybe she's right.
Maybe I should leave my position
345
00:18:49,728 --> 00:18:51,463
as COO.
>> Chelsea: Well, that's the
346
00:18:51,530 --> 00:18:53,665
most sensible thing you've said
all day.
347
00:18:53,732 --> 00:18:55,868
It's like you always go back
to the C-suite because you think
348
00:18:55,934 --> 00:18:58,770
it's what you're supposed to do,
but you always end up leaving
349
00:18:58,837 --> 00:19:04,309
for your real passion.
Podcast Billy is the real Billy.
350
00:19:04,376 --> 00:19:06,545
The Grinning Soul
is the real Billy.
351
00:19:06,612 --> 00:19:08,247
>> Billy: No, that's -- that's
not me.
352
00:19:08,313 --> 00:19:10,282
>> Chelsea: Stop denying it.
I figured it out
353
00:19:10,349 --> 00:19:13,418
a long time ago.
I know you better than you
354
00:19:13,485 --> 00:19:18,924
realize.
>> Diane: What do I want?
355
00:19:18,991 --> 00:19:25,931
What does anyone want?
Um, health and happiness...
356
00:19:25,998 --> 00:19:30,168
peace.
Beyond that, to be a productive
357
00:19:30,235 --> 00:19:34,306
member of society and -- and to
be a welcome part of my son and
358
00:19:34,373 --> 00:19:36,241
my grandson's lives.
>> Jack: Wow.
359
00:19:36,308 --> 00:19:39,344
This is a letter-perfect answer.
Sounds like you're competing in
360
00:19:39,411 --> 00:19:40,913
a pageant.
>> Diane: [ Laughs ]
361
00:19:40,979 --> 00:19:43,615
Well, do you have a tiara
and a sash for me?
362
00:19:43,682 --> 00:19:46,518
Is that why you're asking me
these questions?
363
00:19:46,585 --> 00:19:48,253
>> Jack: I don't know.
I was maybe hoping for some
364
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,057
honesty that maybe you could dig
deep and tell me what's really
365
00:19:52,124 --> 00:19:55,661
going on, since obviously
we're in a different place
366
00:19:55,727 --> 00:19:59,698
than we were a few months ago,
even a few weeks ago.
367
00:19:59,765 --> 00:20:02,234
>> Diane: We are.
There's no longer
368
00:20:02,301 --> 00:20:06,738
a wall of animosity between us.
>> Jack: And that's a good
369
00:20:06,805 --> 00:20:08,707
thing, right?
>> Diane: Yes, it is.
370
00:20:08,774 --> 00:20:12,444
>> Jack: [ Chuckles ]
>> Diane: Where exactly are you
371
00:20:12,511 --> 00:20:17,249
going with these questions,
Jack?
372
00:20:17,316 --> 00:20:21,286
>> I want to know
what you're thinking.
373
00:20:21,353 --> 00:20:26,325
Where do you think
this is going?
374
00:20:26,391 --> 00:20:29,161
>> Victor: Well, I think we'll
sort this all out.
375
00:20:29,227 --> 00:20:31,863
>> Nick: [ Sighs ]
>> I can't go on like this.
376
00:20:31,930 --> 00:20:34,633
Alright, we are living --
>> Chance: Nick, I advise you to
377
00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:37,436
say nothing more without a
lawyer present.
378
00:20:37,502 --> 00:20:40,172
>> Victor: Chance, let me
ask you something.
379
00:20:40,238 --> 00:20:43,175
What are you doing here?
You're a member of this family.
380
00:20:43,241 --> 00:20:45,711
You're my son-in-law.
You understand the complexity
381
00:20:45,777 --> 00:20:50,115
of this case
as it pertains to all of us.
382
00:20:50,182 --> 00:20:55,454
So...have you forgotten that
you're a member of this family?
383
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,957
>> Chance: Like I said,
this is not a conversation.
384
00:20:59,024 --> 00:21:01,893
So I would appreciate it
if all of you would just listen.
385
00:21:14,506 --> 00:21:15,507
>> "The Young and the Restless"
will continue.
386
00:21:35,761 --> 00:21:38,330
>> Chance: So, there are two
scenarios here.
387
00:21:38,397 --> 00:21:42,234
Both involve a belligerent and
unstable Ashland Locke showing
388
00:21:42,300 --> 00:21:44,836
up at Victoria's.
He's invited in.
389
00:21:44,903 --> 00:21:47,839
He makes threats.
Nick arrives, coming to his
390
00:21:47,906 --> 00:21:51,076
sister's aid.
In self-defense, Nick punches
391
00:21:51,143 --> 00:21:52,577
Locke, and he falls and hits
his head.
392
00:21:52,644 --> 00:21:56,048
Now, scenario number one.
He's injured,
393
00:21:56,114 --> 00:21:59,117
but he's still alive.
These two step outside
394
00:21:59,184 --> 00:22:01,286
for a brief moment.
During that time,
395
00:22:01,353 --> 00:22:04,222
Ashland gets up,
he stumbles to his car,
396
00:22:04,289 --> 00:22:06,758
and he drives off.
And at some point,
397
00:22:06,825 --> 00:22:09,795
he loses control of the vehicle
and he ends up in that ravine,
398
00:22:09,861 --> 00:22:12,597
killing himself in the crash.
>> Victor: Mm-hmm. Go on.
399
00:22:12,664 --> 00:22:14,466
>> Chance: Now, scenario
number two.
400
00:22:14,533 --> 00:22:18,103
Nick's altercation with Locke,
in defense of Victoria,
401
00:22:18,170 --> 00:22:21,106
inadvertently caused the fall
that killed Locke.
402
00:22:21,173 --> 00:22:24,676
Now, Nick did not intend for him
to die, but it happened.
403
00:22:24,743 --> 00:22:28,580
And after Victoria did the
responsible thing and contacted
404
00:22:28,647 --> 00:22:33,485
me, the two stepped outside.
Then, without their knowledge,
405
00:22:33,552 --> 00:22:36,955
Victor's men removed the body.
They placed it
406
00:22:37,022 --> 00:22:39,257
in the rental car.
They staged the accident
407
00:22:39,324 --> 00:22:41,893
to make it look like
that was how he died.
408
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:46,364
And all of that would absolve
Nick of responsibility for the
409
00:22:46,431 --> 00:22:48,734
death.
Now, there is evidence
410
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:53,038
substantiating this version.
>> Victor: It is circumstantial.
411
00:22:53,105 --> 00:22:56,975
>> Chance: Now, there are holes
in this case, and I think it may
412
00:22:57,042 --> 00:23:02,314
be what Nick says he cannot
live with any longer -- a lie.
413
00:23:02,380 --> 00:23:04,349
>> Victoria: He never
said "lie."
414
00:23:04,416 --> 00:23:06,318
>> Chance: I know.
>> Victor: So, Chance, tell us,
415
00:23:06,384 --> 00:23:15,961
which scenario will you pursue?
>> Chance: [ Sighs ]
416
00:23:16,027 --> 00:23:20,232
>> Billy: Yes.
I am the Grinning Soul.
417
00:23:20,298 --> 00:23:24,469
Now, question -- did you know it
was me when you were singing
418
00:23:24,536 --> 00:23:26,571
his praises earlier?
>> Chelsea: Yep.
419
00:23:26,638 --> 00:23:28,940
You didn't realize that?
>> Billy: No, I didn't.
420
00:23:29,007 --> 00:23:30,776
>> Chelsea: Not even when I said
you respect for the
421
00:23:30,842 --> 00:23:32,644
Grinning Soul probably
went both ways?
422
00:23:32,711 --> 00:23:34,412
>> Billy: I thought you were
being supportive.
423
00:23:34,479 --> 00:23:36,381
>> Chelsea: I was, but I was
also trying to get you
424
00:23:36,448 --> 00:23:38,583
to admit it.
Don't worry, I don't think
425
00:23:38,650 --> 00:23:41,186
anybody else knows.
Your secret is safe.
426
00:23:41,253 --> 00:23:44,790
>> Billy: Good.
Is that what you meant when you
427
00:23:44,856 --> 00:23:48,627
said that that is the real me
and that I'm not some dude in
428
00:23:48,693 --> 00:23:52,164
a suit sitting in an office
looking over budgets?
429
00:23:52,230 --> 00:23:56,468
>> Chelsea: Was I wrong?
I just think you're happier
430
00:23:56,535 --> 00:23:58,870
talking into a microphone about
whatever you want to talk about
431
00:23:58,937 --> 00:24:02,040
than sitting in a C-suite.
And frankly, I think
432
00:24:02,107 --> 00:24:04,409
secretly you're hoping
Lily gives you an ultimatum
433
00:24:04,476 --> 00:24:07,245
and you have to decide
between executive and podcaster.
434
00:24:07,312 --> 00:24:09,714
>> Billy: I don't know.
But I do hope
435
00:24:09,781 --> 00:24:12,517
I can make a decision without
Lily having to force my hand.
436
00:24:12,584 --> 00:24:17,389
>> Chelsea: Guess we'll just
have to wait and see.
437
00:24:17,455 --> 00:24:20,292
>> Diane: What exactly are you
asking?
438
00:24:20,358 --> 00:24:23,695
You can be talking
about so many things.
439
00:24:23,762 --> 00:24:26,097
>> Jack: Okay, so let me
clarify.
440
00:24:26,164 --> 00:24:30,569
Us -- you and me.
What are you hoping for from
441
00:24:30,635 --> 00:24:33,672
this tenuous relationship?
>> Diane: Wow, you're not
442
00:24:33,738 --> 00:24:36,208
messing around tonight.
You want answers,
443
00:24:36,274 --> 00:24:39,945
and you want them now.
>> Jack: At this stage, after
444
00:24:40,011 --> 00:24:45,016
everything we've been through.
Who has time to mess around?
445
00:24:45,083 --> 00:24:48,553
>> Diane: There's a lot of truth
in that.
446
00:24:48,620 --> 00:24:53,758
So, if you're asking
if my feelings for you
447
00:24:53,825 --> 00:24:58,463
go beyond friendship,
they do.
448
00:24:58,530 --> 00:25:02,434
You know me too well
for me to deny it.
449
00:25:02,500 --> 00:25:05,770
[ Chuckles ]
When our hands touched before,
450
00:25:05,837 --> 00:25:10,242
I -- I got butterflies in my
stomach.
451
00:25:10,308 --> 00:25:15,146
I felt like a schoolgirl.
[ Chuckles ]
452
00:25:15,213 --> 00:25:19,017
And as conniving as I was
in the past, I was never
453
00:25:19,084 --> 00:25:23,855
able to hide my emotions.
Jack, that bet I made with
454
00:25:23,922 --> 00:25:29,160
myself about earning your
friendship was absolutely true.
455
00:25:29,227 --> 00:25:34,332
There's a part of me
that wants more.
456
00:25:34,399 --> 00:25:37,068
And if I'm being
completely honest,
457
00:25:37,135 --> 00:25:43,408
those feelings are both
thrilling and terrifying.
458
00:25:43,475 --> 00:25:46,311
[ Sighs ]
>> Jack: Terrifying?
459
00:25:46,378 --> 00:25:48,780
I didn't realize
it was that scary.
460
00:25:48,847 --> 00:25:50,382
>> Diane: No, it's not you.
It's me.
461
00:25:50,448 --> 00:25:55,553
It's -- It's, my heart has been
shut down for so long, I --
462
00:25:55,620 --> 00:25:59,090
I didn't feel like I deserved
affection, and I didn't want it,
463
00:25:59,157 --> 00:26:01,426
because then it would make me
feel even guiltier
464
00:26:01,493 --> 00:26:06,097
about everything I had done.
But being back here,
465
00:26:06,164 --> 00:26:12,437
my heart is opening up,
and it feels so good
466
00:26:12,504 --> 00:26:18,910
to be alive in that way again.
But I know, in the end,
467
00:26:18,977 --> 00:26:22,814
there's going to be some pain.
>> Jack: Why do you say that?
468
00:26:22,881 --> 00:26:27,185
>> Diane: [ Sighs ]
Because no matter how deep
469
00:26:27,252 --> 00:26:32,624
my feelings for you become,
I know that you will never feel
470
00:26:32,691 --> 00:26:36,461
the same way about me.
>> Jack: I don't --
471
00:26:36,528 --> 00:26:40,799
>> Diane: You know, I wanted to
delay this conversation forever,
472
00:26:40,865 --> 00:26:44,402
if possible, so I could --
so I could just pretend
473
00:26:44,469 --> 00:26:46,604
for a while longer
that there was still hope.
474
00:26:46,671 --> 00:26:52,410
I just...
I didn't want this daydream
475
00:26:52,477 --> 00:26:55,714
to end.
>> Jack: Well, maybe it doesn't
476
00:26:55,780 --> 00:27:00,819
have to.
I will admit that I didn't see
477
00:27:00,885 --> 00:27:04,322
this coming either.
But it must be clear to you,
478
00:27:04,389 --> 00:27:14,065
I -- I, too, have some feelings.
>> Diane: [ Gasps ]
479
00:27:16,735 --> 00:27:19,270
>> Jack: Diane.
Diane?
480
00:27:19,337 --> 00:27:20,338
>> Diane: [ Gasps ]
[ Sighs ]
481
00:27:30,348 --> 00:27:32,183
>> Jack: You seemed to
drift off.
482
00:27:32,250 --> 00:27:35,286
Where did you go?
>> Diane: I -- I'm --
483
00:27:35,353 --> 00:27:38,790
I'm not sure.
I just -- I think that drink
484
00:27:38,857 --> 00:27:41,960
went straight to my head.
I just didn't have enough
485
00:27:42,027 --> 00:27:47,065
to eat today.
>> Jack: So, did you hear
486
00:27:47,132 --> 00:27:51,169
what I asked?
>> Diane: Um, you wanted to know
487
00:27:51,236 --> 00:27:55,473
where I thought this was going?
>> Jack: Yeah, you're someone
488
00:27:55,540 --> 00:27:59,944
who plans, makes goals.
Now that you're settled again
489
00:28:00,011 --> 00:28:04,716
in Genoa City, I think it would
be nice to make those again.
490
00:28:04,783 --> 00:28:08,019
>> Diane: Well, you're right.
It's -- It's a good idea.
491
00:28:08,086 --> 00:28:10,722
[ Chuckles ]
I just didn't think
492
00:28:10,789 --> 00:28:13,892
that I would be having
this conversation with you.
493
00:28:13,958 --> 00:28:17,962
>> Jack: I'm a little surprised
myself.
494
00:28:18,029 --> 00:28:22,167
>> Diane: So, what exactly
do you mean by "plans"?
495
00:28:22,233 --> 00:28:25,136
>> Jack: Well, I mean, you can't
live in the Athletic Club
496
00:28:25,203 --> 00:28:27,906
forever, now that you have a
job, now that Kyle has let you
497
00:28:27,972 --> 00:28:30,041
back into his life.
I mean,
498
00:28:30,108 --> 00:28:38,817
what is next for Diane Jenkins?
>> Diane: Oh, well, I, um -- I
499
00:28:38,883 --> 00:28:42,220
haven't given much thought
to my living arrangements.
500
00:28:42,287 --> 00:28:45,356
Believe it or not,
I'm taking a come-what-may
501
00:28:45,423 --> 00:28:48,693
approach to life.
I find, if you plan too much
502
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:55,100
for the future, then you
don't have a chance to dream.
503
00:28:55,166 --> 00:28:59,537
>> Chance: What's important here
is that in both scenarios,
504
00:28:59,604 --> 00:29:02,440
Ashland Locke's death was an
accident, and no one meant
505
00:29:02,507 --> 00:29:05,643
for that man to die.
And I believe that 100%.
506
00:29:05,710 --> 00:29:08,179
Nick was protecting his sister.
He had no intention
507
00:29:08,246 --> 00:29:11,015
of taking a life.
So, moving forward,
508
00:29:11,082 --> 00:29:14,018
we can all agree on that.
>> Victor: Yes, we can.
509
00:29:14,085 --> 00:29:16,688
>> Chance: Now, context
is also important.
510
00:29:16,754 --> 00:29:20,058
This man has put your family
through hell -- a man who lied
511
00:29:20,125 --> 00:29:24,662
about a fatal disease,
solely for personal gain.
512
00:29:24,729 --> 00:29:27,899
I mean, a man like that,
you just -- you just don't know
513
00:29:27,966 --> 00:29:31,903
what he's capable of,
how far he would go for revenge.
514
00:29:31,970 --> 00:29:34,739
So, with all that in mind,
a despicable human being
515
00:29:34,806 --> 00:29:40,044
is dead.
Sad, yes.
516
00:29:40,111 --> 00:29:44,983
But not necessarily a crime.
Now, I think, given more time
517
00:29:45,049 --> 00:29:48,386
and more resources,
I certainly could find
518
00:29:48,453 --> 00:29:51,356
a conspiracy that covers up
the real cause of
519
00:29:51,422 --> 00:29:54,526
Ashland Locke's death.
But what would be the point?
520
00:29:54,592 --> 00:29:57,662
I don't see any reason
for anyone to stand trial
521
00:29:57,729 --> 00:30:00,598
for the death of a man
who was not murdered.
522
00:30:00,665 --> 00:30:02,901
He's put your family
through enough trauma.
523
00:30:02,967 --> 00:30:06,204
>> Nikki: So, what are you
saying?
524
00:30:06,271 --> 00:30:10,008
>> Chance: I will present
the first scenario
525
00:30:10,074 --> 00:30:13,912
as my official version --
that he was still alive,
526
00:30:13,978 --> 00:30:17,148
he made it to his car
on his own, and he crashed.
527
00:30:17,215 --> 00:30:21,819
Terrible man died a terrible
death, and no one will be
528
00:30:21,886 --> 00:30:27,025
punished for it.
>> Billy: Alright,
529
00:30:27,091 --> 00:30:28,793
it's getting a little late.
Time to get going.
530
00:30:28,860 --> 00:30:31,563
>> Chelsea: Me, too.
>> Billy: Thank you very much
531
00:30:31,629 --> 00:30:34,265
for the therapy session/talk.
>> Chelsea: Anytime.
532
00:30:34,332 --> 00:30:36,701
>> Billy: You've, uh -- You've
given me a lot to think about,
533
00:30:36,768 --> 00:30:39,938
so I appreciate that.
>> Chelsea: Hey, um, can I just
534
00:30:40,004 --> 00:30:43,107
ask you something before you go?
I don't mean to be pushy --
535
00:30:43,174 --> 00:30:45,910
or more pushy than usual --
but did Victoria mention that
536
00:30:45,977 --> 00:30:48,479
I went to see her
and I asked her about Johnny?
537
00:30:48,546 --> 00:30:50,715
>> Billy: She did, yeah.
>> Chelsea: Well, she told me
538
00:30:50,782 --> 00:30:52,317
she would consider
telling Johnny that I'm his
539
00:30:52,383 --> 00:30:55,486
birth mother,
but I can tell by the look
540
00:30:55,553 --> 00:30:58,189
on your face,
she's not on board, is she?
541
00:30:58,256 --> 00:31:00,858
>> Billy: Just not good timing.
>> Chelsea: Yeah, I understand
542
00:31:00,925 --> 00:31:03,061
that, but the thing is, I'm
kind of in a position now where
543
00:31:03,127 --> 00:31:05,863
I feel like I'm lying to Connor.
I'm withholding information
544
00:31:05,930 --> 00:31:08,833
from him.
He's at an age where he can
545
00:31:08,900 --> 00:31:11,269
understand what's going on.
And I feel like the longer
546
00:31:11,336 --> 00:31:13,538
I wait, the more he's gonna
resent me for not telling him
547
00:31:13,605 --> 00:31:15,139
earlier.
And honestly, I think it could
548
00:31:15,206 --> 00:31:18,243
help Johnny cope with Ashland's
death, finding out that he has a
549
00:31:18,309 --> 00:31:20,211
brother.
[ Sighs ]
550
00:31:20,278 --> 00:31:23,381
Billy, will you please, please
help me try to convince
551
00:31:23,448 --> 00:31:26,884
Victoria?
>> Victor: Well, now, Chance,
552
00:31:26,951 --> 00:31:29,854
I do admire your reasoning.
>> Nick: I'm glad a decision
553
00:31:29,921 --> 00:31:32,490
has been made.
>> Nikki: I hope we can put
554
00:31:32,557 --> 00:31:35,493
this whole episode behind us.
>> Chance: I want you all to
555
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,596
know, I did not come
to this decision lightly.
556
00:31:38,663 --> 00:31:42,066
>> Victor: Of course you didn't.
>> Chance: And I have been doing
557
00:31:42,133 --> 00:31:45,403
a lot of thinking about
something that you said to me,
558
00:31:45,470 --> 00:31:46,938
Victor.
We do what we have to do
559
00:31:47,005 --> 00:31:51,442
to protect the ones we love.
I've always believed in that.
560
00:31:51,509 --> 00:31:55,446
But this situation
involved the law.
561
00:31:55,513 --> 00:32:00,218
And that is something else
that I truly believe in.
562
00:32:00,285 --> 00:32:02,887
And I believe we did find
justice here tonight,
563
00:32:02,954 --> 00:32:06,591
in a different way.
It wasn't by the books,
564
00:32:06,658 --> 00:32:11,529
but I need to believe
we did what was just.
565
00:32:11,596 --> 00:32:15,233
>> Victor: Chance, you did the
right thing, and Abby would be
566
00:32:15,300 --> 00:32:19,470
very proud of you.
>> Chance: Alright, well,
567
00:32:19,537 --> 00:32:21,939
I'm going to go home
and I'm going to try to get
568
00:32:22,006 --> 00:32:25,977
some sleep tonight for a change.
>> Victor: You do that, alright?
569
00:32:26,044 --> 00:32:29,580
>> Nick: Thanks for everything.
>> Victoria: Chance, I'll
570
00:32:29,647 --> 00:32:36,754
walk you out.
Hey, um, listen.
571
00:32:36,821 --> 00:32:41,025
I know it wasn't easy for you,
but you protected the family.
572
00:32:41,092 --> 00:32:43,161
And like Dad said, you did
the right thing.
573
00:32:43,227 --> 00:32:45,463
>> Chance: [ Sighs ]
>> Victoria: It won't be
574

forgotten.
If there's anything that we --

>> Chance: I'm gonna stop you
right there.
576
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:53,371
Don't even make me that offer.
It's not what I expect, and
577
00:32:53,438 --> 00:32:55,173
that's absolutely not why
I did this.
578
00:32:55,239 --> 00:32:58,209
>> Victoria: I didn't mean to
imply that it was.
579
00:32:58,276 --> 00:33:00,144
>> Chance: I hope you can
find peace now.
580

>> Jack: I'm surprised Kyle and
Summer aren't back yet.

>> Diane: Oh, they're young
and in love.
582
00:33:17,228 --> 00:33:19,697
They deserve a romantic
night out once in a while.
583
00:33:19,764 --> 00:33:21,532
>> Jack: I couldn't agree more.
>> Diane: On the other hand,
584
00:33:21,599 --> 00:33:24,102
I need to get going.
I have to be at work bright
585
00:33:24,168 --> 00:33:26,871
and early, and I want to make
a good impression on my bosses.
586
00:33:26,938 --> 00:33:30,441
>> Jack: Are you okay to drive
after that little spell?
587
00:33:30,508 --> 00:33:34,846
>> Diane: Oh, I'm fine.
I just got a little lightheaded.
588
00:33:34,912 --> 00:33:39,183
>> Jack: You sure?
I -- I could drive you home..
589
00:33:39,250 --> 00:33:43,821
or call you a car.
>> Diane: No, Jack, really,
590
00:33:43,888 --> 00:33:47,658
I'm -- I'm fine.
It's nice to know you care.
591
00:33:56,467 --> 00:33:58,870
>> Billy: Look, you've made
some -- some good arguments.
592
00:33:58,936 --> 00:34:00,705
Alright?
And of course, I will talk to
593
00:34:00,772 --> 00:34:03,107
her about it, but right now,
I think Victoria needs a
594
00:34:03,174 --> 00:34:04,976
little bit of time.
>> Chelsea: I just don't want to
595
00:34:05,042 --> 00:34:06,344
wait too long.
>> Billy: Look, Chelse,
596
00:34:06,411 --> 00:34:08,146
I hear you, and like I said,
I will talk to her,
597
00:34:08,212 --> 00:34:10,248
but I can't promise anything.
But if you want to get
598
00:34:10,314 --> 00:34:14,085
what I think you're looking for,
she's gonna need a little bit of
599
00:34:14,152 --> 00:34:17,155
space to come to that decision.
>> Chelsea: Well, it means a lot
600
00:34:17,221 --> 00:34:19,524
to me to even try.
>> Billy: Of course.
601
00:34:19,590 --> 00:34:22,460
I will let you know.
I'll see you soon.
602
00:34:22,527 --> 00:34:24,529

Chance came through for us.
>> Nikki: He made the right
605
00:34:34,872 --> 00:34:37,542
decision, after all.
>> Nick: Still, I'm afraid we
606
00:34:37,608 --> 00:34:40,511
may have compromised the most
moral man in Genoa City.
607
00:34:40,578 --> 00:34:42,480
>> Victor: He knew damn well
he didn't have enough evidence
608
00:34:42,547 --> 00:34:47,385
to hold up in court.
We may praise him till the cows
609
00:34:47,452 --> 00:34:49,754
come in that he made
the right decision.
610
00:34:49,821 --> 00:34:51,989
The fact is,
he didn't want to lose.
611
00:34:52,056 --> 00:34:55,693
>> Nick: That may be.
Doesn't change what happened
612

You should be proud of that.

I hope he'll be okay.
616
00:35:19,083 --> 00:35:21,853

deal with the fact
617
00:35:21,919 --> 00:35:25,156
that he killed a man, although
he knows it was an accident.
618
00:35:25,223 --> 00:35:28,526
>> Nikki: Even though the
investigation cleared him, he's
619
00:35:28,593 --> 00:35:31,729
still going to punish himself.
