>> Sharon: Snacks? >> Faith: Check.
>> Nick: Grandparents? >> Faith: Check.
>> Nick: Directions? >> Faith: Check.
>> Sharon: Oh! Hair dryer? >> Faith: Check.
>> Adam: What's going on here? Okay, what kind of covert
operation did I walk in on? >> Faith: Big news, Adam.
Your kidney's going to college today.
>> Adam: [ Chuckles ]
>> Nikki: Can you believe our
granddaughter is already heading off to college?
>> Victor: I'm so impressed with her.
And what a beautiful girl, you know?
She is -- She is really something.
I think she will be very successful.
>> Nikki: I assume you'll be continuing your chess games
long distance? >> Victor: Ooh, I already have
made the first move via an app. >> Nikki: Yes, of course you
have. >> Victor: Yeah.
By the way, talking about moves, someone told me they saw you in
town talking to a journalist from California.
Talia Morgan? >> Nikki: [ Sighs ]
Does anything happen in this town that you don't hear about?
>> Victor: Sweetheart, have you ever known anything to slip by
me? >> Nikki: Well, truth be told,
Talia initially came to town to write about the impact of
Ashland's death on our family. >> Victor: Hmm.
Sorry to hear that. >> Nikki: But with a little help
from me, she quickly realized that the more compelling story
is Diane's return from the dead. And I was more than happy to
provide as much dirt as possible for what I hope will be a
beautiful hatchet job. >> Victor: [ Chuckles ]
I bet you were.

>> Phyllis: I cannot believe how much fun I'm having working with
you. >> Summer: It has been pretty
great. I am so excited for your ideas
for Marchetti's new home line. >> Phyllis: Mm, so am I.
>> Summer: You know, there's just one thing that's still kind
of distracting me. It's -- It's that article that
Talia Morgan was writing about Ashland.
>> Phyllis: Um, you -- Right. What about it?
>> Summer: Well, I've been on the lookout for it, you know, in
case it takes a negative spin or twists any of the facts.
I want to stay on top of anything that could be
detrimental to Harrison in the future.
>> Phyllis: Oh, of course. Of course.
I mean, Talia -- she's an investigative journalist.
I mean, she only writes about the truth.
She's not gonna do anything to an innocent little boy.
>> Summer: You're probably right, but...
I don't know. I'm still just curious.
Like, what else is there to say about the guy?
Just feels like old news by now, right?
And the article hasn't even come out yet.
Not that I've seen, at least. I mean, where is it?
>> Phyllis: She's probably trying to, you know, get other
sources, um, confirm the information she has garnered.
Wait a second. You still don't trust me, do
you?
>> Jack: These Marchetti projections look very strong.
You're doing a great job, son, setting the company up for
future success. >> Kyle: As much as I'd like to
take the credit, Summer is the driving force.
I take my lead from her creative decisions.
She makes it easy. >> Jack: Always good to have
someone you can count on. Which reminds me, I need to tell
you something and I'm not sure you're gonna be happy to
hear it.
>> Nikki: I have got high hopes
for Talia's story. >> Victor: Now, what exactly do
you intend to accomplish with it?
>> Nikki: Well, I'm hoping that the sheer humiliation of seeing
her crimes in print will be enough to drive her out of town,
this time for good. >> Victor: Yeah. Hmm.
>> Nikki: What? You disapprove? >> Victor: No, no, no, no.
I think Diane Jenkins needs to be dealt with.
I agree. >> Nikki: [ Sighs ]
I'm glad. >> Victor: But I want you to
move with caution, okay? Remember -- Diane Jenkins is
Kyle's mother and Summer's mother-in-law.
I don't want anything to negatively impact that young
family. Beyond that, anything you can do
to blow Diane Jenkins out of the water is alright with me, okay?
>> Summer: I'm sorry. I can't deny it.
I am a little bit suspicious. I can't help it, Mom.
It just seems like there's something off with this whole
thing. >> Phyllis: What?!
Why? I'm on my best behavior with
Diane. >> Summer: I know, and to be
honest, the longer that goes on, the more worried I get.
It doesn't even seem like it's hard for you to stay calm,
which leads me to suspect that there's something else going on
underneath your polite veneer. >> Phyllis: Summer, I'm doing
what you wanted me to do. I'm being nice to the woman.
I mean, I don't have to go and hang out with her at happy hour.
I'm just biting my tongue. It's hard, after everything that
she's done to me, but I'm doing it for you, okay?
I'm just putting on the fake smile.
See? It's, like, a piece of cake.
>> Summer: Mom, I've seen your fake smile, and this is not it.
I just -- You know what?
Never mind. Kyle and I made a pact that we
would stop babysitting our mothers and just trust you two
to not destroy each other. >> Phyllis: That's a good idea.
Stick to that. >> Summer: Don't get me wrong,
Mom. I'm the one that convinced Jack
to invest in Marchetti, and I'm going to do everything in my
power to protect its integrity.
>> Jack: When I implied I wouldn't be replacing you as
co-CEO, I was letting you off the hook.
>> Kyle: Why would you do that? >> Jack: Because I didn't want
to make you feel guilty about leaving Jabot because I thought
this move to Marchetti was a great move for you.
>> Kyle: Yeah, well, I appreciate you making the
transition easy for me, and this opportunity to work with
Summer is really a great fit. And I guess I'm okay with you
filling the position as long as Adam's not my replacement.
No. No, Dad, don't say it. >> Jack: Adam changed his mind.
Look, I honestly believe he is going to be a great addition to
the Jabot family. Besides, it will give
Grandpa Jack more time with Harrison.
>> Kyle: Hey, hey, I'm all for more Grandpa time, but giving
Adam any power here -- that's a recipe for disaster.
>> Jack: I understand your reservations.
Adam is looking for a fresh start, and I honestly think he's
put his worst behind him. >> Kyle: Yeah, I still find that
extremely hard to believe. But I've walked away from the
co-CEO position, so it's your decision.
Still, I'm keeping my eye on him.
>> Jack: I would expect nothing less, but do me a favor.
Please try to stay optimistic. >> Kyle: [ Scoffs ]
I guess I'll have to try 'cause I have so many happy things
going on in my life. In fact, I'm planning a bit of a
surprise, and I'd like to enlist your help.
>> Jack: Okay. Sounds intriguing.
What's the plan? >> Kyle: Mm, a wedding of sorts.
>> Jack: A wedding? For whom? >> Sharon: Faith is headed to
the University of Michigan today.
>> Adam: Wow. Well, congratulations, Faith.
>> Nick: Yeah, we're gonna drop her off and help her get settled
in. >> Faith: I guess I should
clarify. I'm taking your kidney back to
once with you. But it's my big freshman year,
and if it hadn't been for your donation, I wouldn't be able to
go. You made this day possible for
me, and I want to thank you again.
>> Nick: We all do. >> Sharon: Yes, I hope you know
we'll be forever grateful. >> Adam: Well, I'm sure my
kidney will have a much better time with Faith anyway.
So, I wish you a lot of luck and success on your new adventure.
>> Faith: Thanks. >> Adam: Could I, uh, get a cup
of coffee? >> Sharon: Sure.
>> Adam: Sharon, this is a big day for you.
>> Sharon: Yeah. It is. Um, it's an even bigger day for
Faith, though, and I'm so excited for her starting out
this new chapter of her life. >> Adam: Well, I guess, uh,
Faith and I have something more than a kidney in common then.
>> Sharon: What's that? >> Adam: I am starting a new
chapter, too. I'm going to work with Jack
at Jabot. >> Sharon: When did that happen?
>> Adam: Yesterday. But Jack and I have been
discussing it for a while. >> Sharon: I see.
>> Adam: I get the feeling you're not, uh, entirely on
board with this? >> Sharon: Well, it's not my
decision to make. I wish you well.
I just hope that you didn't make this move so that you can stick
it to Victor. >> Adam: No.
I made it because Jack actually values my input and respects my
abilities as an executive. And I value his trust.
So, my dad is a non-issue, as he should be.
>> Sharon: Well, that's great. I'm glad to hear that.
I'm glad you're not channeling your anger into getting back at
Victor. >> Adam: Mm-hmm.
>> Sharon: And instead, you've found something positive to
focus on. That's really great.
I'm sure Sally will be happy, too.
>> Adam: Sally? Wh-- Why did you mention her?
>> Sharon: Oh, she confided in me again, and she's worried
about you. >> Adam: She spoke to you again?
Are these chats between the two of you becoming a regular thing?
>> Sharon: Oh, I... I mean, what does it even
matter, right? You're not interested in being
with her anymore, so I don't even know what difference it
makes.
>> Phyllis: Oh, thank goodness. No more babysitters. Yay!
>> Summer: You know, this isn't a get out of jail free card,
Mom. >> Phyllis: Yeah. Thank you.
>> Summer: Oh -- >> Phyllis: No.
>> Summer: No. Mnh. Me.
>> Phyllis: You don't have to worry about me.
And I know it's not a get out of jail free card.
All I want to do for you, Summer, is help you realize your
dream and help you create something that's long-lasting.
>> Summer: I certainly hope so. >> Phyllis: Well, know so.
This is a great opportunity for me, as well.
And Diane -- she's just, you know, an annoying byproduct.
>> Summer: Seriously? You just can't help yourself
from taking a cheap shot at her. >> Phyllis: No, I can't.
Given our history, I can't. Understand that.
All the tension between me and Diane -- it will die out.
And given that, um, if Diane self-implodes, well, you know --
that might be possible, even inevitable -- will I shed a
tear? No chance.
>> Kyle: The wedding Summer and I had in Milan was beautiful and
unforgettable. >> Jack: I absolutely concur.
>> Kyle: But I know there was one thing Summer regrets.
She missed having a celebration here in Genoa City.
So I was wondering if you'd be okay if I planned something at
the house. Dad, did I ask for too much?
Do you think I'm going overboard with this idea?
>> Jack: No, no, no, it's -- It's a beautiful idea.
My heart just swelled with the thought.
I would be honored to celebrate your marriage in the Abbott
home. >> Kyle: Great. Thank you.
Oh, uh, I haven't told Summer about this.
I wanted to make sure I planned everything first.
>> Jack: I'm sure she will be thrilled.
Listen, we can talk about this some more.
I've got to get to a meeting. >> Kyle: Yeah, sure.
>> Jack: You can count on me to help in any way I can.
Whatever it takes to make this celebration special.
>> Diane: What's this about a celebration?
>> Adam: Excuse me, Sharon. >> Sally: [ Sighs ] I'm not sure
I'm up for dealing with you right now.
>> Adam: Will you please join me on the patio?
It will just take a moment. >> Sally: I'm very busy, but,
um...yeah, I think I could spare a minute.
>> Nick: Everything okay? >> Sharon: Um, yeah, fine.
I was just, um... Anyway, where do we stand on
this list? >> Faith: Everything is almost
packed, shipped, or crossed off the to-dos.
We should be ready to leave this afternoon right on schedule.
>> Adam: Faith's going off to college.
I hope Sharon's ready. But I'm happy for Faith.
Big turning point in her life. >> Sally: Good for Faith.
Happy for her. But I know you didn't call me
out here to talk about the adventures of your niece.
So...what's going on?
>> Adam: I don't mean to beat around the bush.
I know you're busy. How are things going at
Newman Media? >> Sally: Things are going
amazingly well. Chloe and I are setting the
stage for some really big moves. >> Adam: Mm.
Well, it sounds like you and the Newmans are working well
together. >> Sally: Actually, I haven't
had much one-on-one time with Victoria, but Nick is proving to
be a terrifically nurturing and supportive boss.
>> Adam: Hmm. I'm not surprised.
I knew you would work your magic and impress them enough to seal
your position there. >> Sally: Of course you did.
It's the whole reason why you broke up with me, isn't it?
Are we done here? >> Adam: Look -- No.
Please. Will you just let me say
what I need to say?
>> Nikki: Summer will benefit from Diane's departure just as
much as the rest of the Abbotts and the Newmans.
That woman staying in town will be a disaster for everybody.
>> Victor: I couldn't agree more.
But you must remember that it was Summer who encouraged Kyle
to reconnect with his mother, although she knew the risks.
>> Nikki: Yes, but it's obvious she's only tolerating Diane for
his sake. I mean, the woman is not the
kind of mother or mother-in-law that those kids deserve -- or
any kind of grandmother for Harrison.
I just know that when Diane shows her true colors, everybody
will see her for the fraud that she is.
And then Kyle's eyes will be opened and Summer can be loving
and supportive, but not at all surprised.
>> Victor: Yeah.
>> Jack: She's all yours.
>> Kyle: Okay, Mom. >> Diane: [ Chuckles ]
>> Kyle: I will tell you, but first, you need to understand
this is a big surprise for Summer.
So, can I trust you to keep a secret?
>> Diane: Yes. My lips are sealed. I promise.
>> Kyle: [ Chuckles ] I'm planning a wedding
celebration for my wife in her hometown, with all of her family
and friends to witness. >> Diane: Oh, Kyle!
That is so sweet and wildly romantic.
>> Kyle: Oh, I think Summer will love the idea.
>> Diane: I know she will. And I want to do whatever I can
to help make this the spectacular day you both
deserve. >> Kyle: Thanks for offering,
Mom. >> Diane: Yeah.
I am -- I am just so grateful to be here with you and my grandson
at such a happy and important time.
I missed so many of these moments.
>> Kyle: Well, the good news is you're here now.
>> Diane: Yeah. You know, I know this wedding
you're planning is for Summer, but, in a way, it -- it almost
feels like it's for me, too, since I wasn't here the first
time. I am over the moon that I get to
celebrate such a wonderful milestone with you.
It's gonna be so special. >> Kyle: Well, that's the plan.
>> Diane: Yeah. [ Indistinct conversation ]
>> Summer: Looks like we walked in on something.
>> Diane: Oh, just, um, another day of counting my blessings.
But I really need to get back to work.
Uh...nice dress, Phyllis. >> Phyllis: Thank you so much.
It's Marchetti. >> Diane: [ Sighs ]
>> Faith: The last thing to do is say goodbye to Noah.
But I will be back in plenty of time to catch up with him
before we leave. >> Nick: Alright.
>> Faith: [ Chuckles ] >> Nick: And there goes our baby
girl. She's all grown up, ready to
take on the world. >> Sharon: She's my last one.
Mariah's married now, starting a life of her own.
>> Nick: And we're very happy for her.
>> Sharon: Yep. And I remember when Noah left.
Broke my heart a little. >> Nick: Yeah, me too.
But we survived. And look -- now he's back.
>> Sharon: Yeah, you know, and Faith is gonna be back soon,
too. I mean, after all, the holidays
are coming, and -- and there's three-day weekends.
She said that she wants to work for Newman when she graduates,
so I would imagine she'll move back to Genoa City permanently.
>> Nick: Unless she wants to go work at one of our European
divisions. >> Sharon: No.
Don't even think that. >> Nick: [ Chuckles ]
[ Cellphone pings ] [ Groans ]
>> Sharon: What? Trouble? >> Nick: No. It's just my Dad.
He wants to see me. >> Sharon: Oh.
Well, why don't you go and do that?
We still have some time before we need to leave.
I hope it's nothing serious. >> Nick: When it's my dad,
when is it not serious?
Oh, no. What's wrong?
>> Tessa: [ Sighs ]
>> "The Young and the Restless" will continue.
>> Tessa: I just -- I can't believe it.
I really can't. >> Mariah: We had an awful
morning. >> Sharon: What happened?
>> Mariah: Uh, we got turned down by a private adoption
attorney. >> Sharon: What? Why?
I mean, I knew there'd be hurdles, but not right out
of the gate. >> Mariah: We wanted to be open
about our past. We didn't want to hide anything.
>> Tessa: We thought it was better than risking things come
out and potentially delaying or affecting the process.
>> Mariah: So much for honesty being the best policy.
>> Sharon: What did this attorney say?
>> Mariah: Uh, she didn't feel like it would be likely that we
would be chosen by a prospective birth mother when we were
compared to people that didn't have...criminal records.
>> Nikki: I don't know where the time goes.
Can you believe that little Dominic is already a year old?
On top of Faith going off to college.
>> Victor: Yep. All these milestones puts things
in perspective, doesn't it? >> Nikki: Yes, it certainly
does. But something tells me that
you're talking about something more specific.
>> Victor: Well, I can't help but think about Adam's place in
the family. >> Nikki: I'm sorry that he's
let you down yet again. >> Victor: I think this time it
may be different. He promised not to be
revengeful, you know? I mean, he could have evidence
that could cause a lot of trouble for our family, but I
haven't seen it anywhere. >> Nikki: Darling, please
promise me that you won't get your hopes up again.
I mean, you should be focusing on how well your other children
are doing. I know that Adam's distance is
breaking your heart, but it's not your fault that he seems
incapable of being a meaningful member of this family.
>> Victor: I still feel there's a chance that he'll come around.
>> Nikki: Maybe there's just too many wounds, too much anger over
the years. >> Victor: But I'm not gonna
give up on him. He's my son.
>> Sally: I know you have nowhere to be, but I do, and I'm
not gonna let my work slide because of you.
>> Adam: Actually, I have somewhere to be now, too.
Jack offered me co-CEO at Jabot, and, uh, I took him up on it.
>> Sally: When did that happen? Did you have this cushy new job
lined up when you walked out on me at Newman Media?
>> Adam: Mnh. Jack offered it to me out of the
blue after I quit. >> Sally: Huh.
How's that going for you? Bet you're juggling a lot with
this big new job and doing everything in your power to
destroy your father at the same time.
>> Summer: Hey, what was -- what was going on earlier when
my mom and I walked in? You and Diane seemed almost
conspiratorial. >> Kyle: Nothing for you to
worry about. My mom's emotions get the
better of her sometimes, that's all.
She still finds it hard to believe that she was able to get
her life back after all these years.
And, hey, we need to go. We're late for the conference
call with Milan. >> Summer: Oh. Yeah.
>> Phyllis: Eavesdropping a little?
>> Diane: [ Scoffs ] Of course not.
I was just marveling at how happy our kids are.
>> Phyllis: Mm-hmm. And I'd like them to stay that
way. >> Diane: I'd like nothing more.
>> Phyllis: So, that little moment that Summer and I walked
in on? >> Diane: Life is full of all
kinds of moments, but that one was not for public consumption.
>> Phyllis: Oh, that's interesting, considering how
your life has been served up for public consumption today.
Oh, you haven't seen it?
>> Sharon: This adoption attorney's decision is just
absurd, and it's wrong. You too aren't criminals.
Where does she get off saying something like that about you?
>> Tessa: It's true. We haven't actually broken the
law in a long time. >> Mariah: But our records are
far from spotless. I mean, I cringe to think at all
the break-ins and robberies I committed.
>> Sharon: But you were forced into a cult by the people who
stole you from me. They should be the ones taking
all the blame for that. Ian Ward -- he couldn't teach
anyone right from wrong. >> Tessa: I mean, I'm not
innocent, either. I blackmailed you, Nikki,
Phyllis, and Victoria, and I stole Nikki's gun.
>> Sharon: But you did all of that to protect your sister, who
was in very serious danger. >> Tessa: Yeah, well, that part
didn't go over well with the lawyer, either.
Turns out being mixed up with a sex-trafficking operation
does not make us look like the best prospective parents.
>> Mariah: It's enough to have lived through all of that
trauma, but now it feels like we're being punished for it.
Years later. It's not fair. >> Tessa: I was prepared for
this to be a long and difficult process, but I was not prepared
for the person who's supposed to be our advocate to reject us
before we even get started. >> Mariah: We thought we had
gone through some horrible times and we had finally put it all
behind us and moved on. >> Sharon: Well, you did.
And you have. I'm sorry, but this is just
outrageous. I hope that the two of you are
not planning on giving up now.
>> Phyllis: Oh, I guess you haven't seen the latest, um,
posting on Talia Morgan's magazine site.
>> Diane: [ Scoffs ] >> Phyllis: I suppose she
decided to scrap her article on Ashland and do deep dive into
your life. >> Diane: [ Scoffs ]
>> Phyllis: Wow. Well, it's a banner headline
on her site. >> Diane: Oh, and it's what?
It's what? Just a bunch of gossip.
>> Phyllis: No. She's not a gossip columnist.
You know that. She's an investigative
journalist. You know -- because you were
fawning all over her yesterday. >> Diane: Yeah, and this woman
wrote about what exactly? Old news?
Because I haven't done anything wrong in years.
>> Phyllis: Mm. So says you. >> Diane: Look, the people who
matter have moved on from the past, and I don't have the
energy for those clinging to it. >> Phyllis: You've been on your
best behavior since you came into town, Diane.
But after reading this article, everyone will know that you are
the most despicable and the most hated woman in Genoa City.
And that must disturb you in so many ways.
>> Diane: [ Sighs heavily ] "The Long and Winding Road of
Diane Jenkins. Back From the Dead."
>> Nikki: Ooh, this is too good. "Years ago, Diane Jenkins
appeared to be the victim of a vicious murder."
>> Victor: Whoa. So, your handiwork has paid off?
>> Nikki: Oh, you bet it has. Listen to this.
"Now she has returned to the scene of the crime, alive and
well and hoping to pick up where she left off."
But can she really overcome the trail of destruction she left
behind?" I've got to give Talia a call
and tell her how brilliant this article is.
>> Victor: [ Laughs ] [ Door closes ]
>> Nick: Hey, Dad. >> Victor: Hi, son.
>> Nick: Uh, I'm guessing your summons has to do with Faith
leaving today. Did you forget to give her a
gift or something? >> Victor: No.
It has to do with my concern about Sally Spectra.
How do you think she's doing at Newman Media?
>> Nick: So far, she's lived up to our expectations.
>> Victor: Really? But not to mine.
I'd asked her to try to convince Adam to stay with the company,
and she was not able to do that. So, as far as I'm concerned,
she's not up to her task.
>> Adam: I don't want to talk
about my father. I am worried about you right
now. >> Sally: Well, you certainly
don't need to be. >> Adam: Not according to Chloe.
>> Sally: [ Chuckles ] What did she say to you?
>> Adam: She -- She was simply acting out of concern for her
friend and boss. But she accused me of trying to
mess with your head, which was never my intention.
>> Sally: Well, for your information, my head is
perfectly fine. Completely un-messed with.
>> Adam: I certainly want to believe that.
And Chloe was very adamant that I need to make it clear that
there is no future for us as a couple.
>> Sally: [ Sighs ] I cannot believe that Chloe's
actually getting involved in my personal life.
So, is that the reason why you brought me out here -- to follow
through with Chloe's request? You want to give me more reasons
why you don't want to be with me?
Is there really anything that you could say that could hurt me
more than you already have? >> Adam: No, Sally.
Okay? You've got it all wrong.
>> Sally: Then what? >> Adam: I want to say that I'm
sorry.
>> Sharon: That adoption attorney better not have
discouraged you in any way, okay?
We'll find another one. We'll find a better one, one
that can see that you two have gotten your lives together in
spectacular fashion. >> Mariah: You're more than
biased, okay? You're my mom, for God's sake.
>> Tessa: And mine, too, pretty much.
>> Sharon: Which puts me in the perfect position to know that
both of you will be great parents.
>> Mariah: Thank you, Mom. >> Sharon: And neither one of
you are quitters. You know, it takes faith most of
all, but it also takes strength and stamina to be a parent.
And I can testify that you both have that and a lot more.
A mom is someone who speaks up for someone else who just had
surgery and can't talk for themselves.
A mom is someone who knows that their loved one is going through
something, even if they're miles and miles away.
Your past is not gonna make you worse parents.
It's going to make you better because you learned from it.
And you'll know how to keep your own children away from falling
into those same traps. You just watch.
Your kids are gonna be the greatest gift in your life.
And they'll also be your greatest heartaches sometimes,
too, unfortunately. But you will be their rocks.
You'll be there with them every step of the way, until one day
they've grown up and they go out into the world on their own.
But you won't worry about that because you'll know that you
have prepared them for it. And you'll still be there with
them, coaching them through all of life's journeys, all the
highs and lows... because that is what a good
Come here. >> Mariah: [ Sighs, sniffles ]
>> Phyllis: I knew you wouldn't be able to resist.
>> Diane: [ Scoffs ] >> Phyllis: Juicy, isn't it?
And I forgot to tell you -- apparently, it's not just this
article. This is the first of a series
of articles on you. >> Diane: [ Sighs ]
>> Phyllis: Wait till everybody gets a load of this.
>> Jack: [ Breathes deeply ]
>> Nick: Come on, Dad.
You didn't honestly believe Sally was gonna talk Adam into
doing something he was determined not to, right?
I mean, that was never gonna happen.
Adam is nothing if not stubborn. >> Victor: Your brother always
had a chip on his shoulder when it came to doing a favor for his
family, you know? But I still think Sally Specter
should have been able to convince him to stay with
Newman Media. >> Nick: Adam didn't just walk
away from Newman Media and the family.
He also walked away from Sally. I get the impression she was
very hurt by the way he did it, even though he claims to have
done it for her. She just wants to put the whole
situation in her rearview mirror.
>> Victor: Do you really think Sally Spectra is able to run a
company? >> Nick: I know you don't want
to hear this, but she's done everything we've asked of her,
and she's done a great job. And I actually think she's gonna
do an even better job and excel once she gets Adam out of her
system. >> Victor: Yeah, but, see,
that's the point, son. Again, personal feelings -- what
does that have to do with running a company?
Nothing. I don't think she's capable of
it. Besides that, do you remember
that she convinced Summer to move to Milan, thereby
endangering the relationship with Kyle?
I don't trust that woman. I think you should fire her.
>> Sally: So, what exactly are you sorry for?
Because I have a long list of your offenses that are
apology-worthy. >> Adam: And I apologize for
every single one of them, Sally, okay?
I was a cruel jerk. And I feel terrible for lying
to you. And I should have trusted that
you and I -- we could have decided together how to handle
the situation. Instead, I didn't let you weigh
in at all. >> Sally: Yeah, that wasn't fair
to me. >> Adam: I know.
But all I could think about was protecting you and your position
at Newman Media. I mean, the last thing that I
wanted is for my family's distrust of me to impact your
opportunity to shine in your role.
And you have. You have.
You have proven yourself worthy, despite all the doubts that they
have had about you. >> Sally: Yeah.
Apparently, they had more faith in me than you did.
>> Adam: I didn't want you to be collateral damage in this war
that I was gonna re-launch with my family.
But now...there is no war. And I just -- I should've
believed that you and I, as a team, could figure out a way
to keep you out of it. You know, I guess I just --
I have been burned too many times, and I have made mistakes
in my past that I never wanted to make again.
>> Sally: Like with Chelsea. >> Adam: Mm-hmm.
Okay, Sally, you and I -- we were always better working
together. And I should have trusted in
that, should have trusted in us. And I know you have every reason
to think this is just more bull from me.
But you know me. You see right through my lies,
and you have been right about me this whole time.
So, can't you tell this is sincere?
This apology is coming from my heart.
Is there any way that you can forgive me?
>> Next week on
>> Lily: Chelsea.
>> Billy: "Oh," as in that's not a big deal, or "Oh," as in
you're not happy that I spend any time with her?
>> Lauren: We're having a problem with the direction of
the shoot. And if I'm to be honest,
it's with Tessa. >> Adam: Just thought you might
want to know that I've taken a job at Jabot as Jack's co-CEO.
