say, I have not missed a beat

>> Victoria: And you don't have
6
00:00:13,947 --> 00:00:16,750
to worry about me anymore.
I am back on my game.
7
00:00:16,816 --> 00:00:19,552
Ashland is in the rearview
mirror, and I am focused on
8
00:00:19,619 --> 00:00:22,322
moving the company forward.
I don't suppose you saw the
9
00:00:22,389 --> 00:00:25,992
video call with the division
heads earlier?
10
00:00:26,059 --> 00:00:28,428
>> Victor: Yes, I saw it.
Very impressive.
11
00:00:28,495 --> 00:00:33,366
And I fully support you wanting
to acquire more companies.
12
00:00:33,433 --> 00:00:37,604
But, sweetheart, uh, be careful
doing that, okay?
13

>> Adam: Thanks for meeting me.
>> Chance: Adam, I came here to
14
00:00:44,878 --> 00:00:48,515
make one thing very clear.
The Ashland Locke investigation
15
00:00:48,581 --> 00:00:51,050
is closed.
His death was ruled an accident.
16
00:00:51,117 --> 00:00:53,887
So there is no need for you to
fish around for any fresh dirt.
17
00:00:53,953 --> 00:00:56,656
You understand?
I'm done playing games with you.
18
00:00:56,723 --> 00:00:58,091
Move on.
>> Adam: Look, I'm sorry.
19
00:00:58,158 --> 00:01:00,627
I don't know if I can now,
not after seeing some pretty
20
00:01:00,693 --> 00:01:04,197
incriminating evidence against
Victor, evidence that you
21
00:01:04,264 --> 00:01:07,434
obviously chose to ignore.
No, I think now would be a
22
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:10,470
pretty good time for you to
consider righting this wrong
23
00:01:10,537 --> 00:01:12,739
because it would be a pretty
terrible thing for you if proof
24
00:01:12,806 --> 00:01:16,176
came out that you covered up a
crime as a personal favor to
25
00:01:16,242 --> 00:01:28,421
your father-in-law.

>> Adam: This doesn't have to
29

I'm just curious -- why wasn't
30
00:01:56,783 --> 00:01:59,752
certain DNA and fingerprint
evidence followed up on?
31
00:01:59,819 --> 00:02:02,255
>> Chance: How'd you come by
that information?
32
00:02:02,322 --> 00:02:05,658
>> Adam: [ Chuckles ]
Maybe I found a laptop on a
33
00:02:05,725 --> 00:02:08,995
bench in a park that a police
lackey left behind.
34
00:02:09,062 --> 00:02:11,598
Okay, but let's get real.
The how and where of it is not
35
00:02:11,664 --> 00:02:13,833
relevant.
It's that the evidence exists
36
00:02:13,900 --> 00:02:16,769
and what it could prove that
matters.
37
00:02:16,836 --> 00:02:18,705
Now, I know that you're not
somebody who could be bought
38
00:02:18,771 --> 00:02:21,374
off, but something clearly
happened.
39
00:02:21,441 --> 00:02:23,343
What happened?
Did Victor intimidate you to
40
00:02:23,409 --> 00:02:24,811
falling in line with the
Newmans?
41
00:02:24,878 --> 00:02:27,347
>> Chance: No one intimidated
me, and I am not about to be
42
00:02:27,413 --> 00:02:30,450
intimidated by you, Adam.
I did my job.
43
00:02:30,517 --> 00:02:33,052
I made a judgment call, and I
have no remorse about my
44
00:02:33,119 --> 00:02:34,888
decision.
>> Adam: I find that hard to
45
00:02:34,954 --> 00:02:36,623
believe, knowing you as well
as I do.
46
00:02:36,689 --> 00:02:39,926
Quite frankly, Chance, it seems
like you've lost your way.
47
00:02:39,993 --> 00:02:42,195
>> Chance: You are the one
that's lost your way, pal.
48
00:02:42,262 --> 00:02:45,431
And you are headed down a
dangerous path.

get together and chat and make

00:03:06,953 --> 00:03:10,657
sure that we're all on the same
page.
56

Right?
'Cause we're on the same team.

Okay.

Um, there is something important
60
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,438
I'd like to discuss, but maybe
we should wait for Billy.

I, uh...

00:03:33,479 --> 00:03:37,150
I don't -- I'm sorry if I gave
you the wrong impression, but

00:03:37,216 --> 00:03:38,217
that -- that was a mistake.

down a dangerous path?
65
00:03:49,295 --> 00:03:52,332
I wasn't anywhere near Ashland
or his body the night that he
66
00:03:52,398 --> 00:03:53,866
died, Chance.
>> Chance: You know exactly what
67
00:03:53,933 --> 00:03:57,170
I'm talking about, man.
And it's disappointing to see,
68
00:03:57,236 --> 00:03:59,505
Adam.
You are just falling right back

ways in the name of vengeance.
70
00:04:03,242 --> 00:04:06,045
>> Adam: Oh, that's funny.
You are the one that is ignoring
71
00:04:06,112 --> 00:04:07,614
crucial evidence.
>> Chance: Yeah, but you're the
72
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,482
one that's blowing up your own
life.
73
00:04:09,549 --> 00:04:13,019
Look at you -- alienating your
family, pushing Sally away, the

00:04:13,086 --> 00:04:15,288
one person who had a good
influence on you.
75
00:04:15,355 --> 00:04:18,024
And now you're claiming that you
got your hands on a
76
00:04:18,091 --> 00:04:21,327
police-issued laptop, and you're
threatening a cop who used to be
77
00:04:21,394 --> 00:04:23,196
your friend.
You don't see anything wrong
78
00:04:23,262 --> 00:04:25,732
with what you're doing here?
You hate your father that much?
79
00:04:25,798 --> 00:04:28,468
>> Adam: No, my father deserves
to be punished for manipulating
80
00:04:28,534 --> 00:04:32,405
his family -- and more
importantly, the truth.
81
00:04:32,472 --> 00:04:36,776
As I recall, you used to believe
in the truth, Chance.
82

thought through each and every

and every single one of them is
84
00:04:42,115 --> 00:04:46,119

00:04:46,185 --> 00:04:48,721
But I want you to consult with
me as you continue.

consult with you.

89
00:04:54,460 --> 00:04:55,728
anything?
>> Victor: Hey, son.
90
00:04:55,795 --> 00:04:57,997

>> Nick: There's some numbers I
91

want to go over with you.
>> Victoria: Oh, okay.
92
00:04:59,766 --> 00:05:01,934
Well, I've got to check in with
marketing, but I'll be back in a
93
00:05:02,001 --> 00:05:04,137

In the meantime, Dad is here
94
00:05:04,203 --> 00:05:10,743

counsel to give.

He's wrapping up his final

idea, to be honest, and I'm
glad.
103
00:05:31,330 --> 00:05:32,632
I am.
>> Devon: Yeah.
104
00:05:32,699 --> 00:05:34,534

host, someone who has his
105
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,470

will carry on.

bring up?
>> Nate: Yes.
109
00:05:44,177 --> 00:05:47,747
Um, I've been doing some
research about what it would
110
00:05:47,814 --> 00:05:51,284
take to start our own music
festival.
111
00:05:51,350 --> 00:05:54,821
The numbers are promising, not
to mention the fringe benefits,

like elevating our name
recognition on a much larger
113
00:05:58,057 --> 00:06:00,593

The way I see it, it's a win,

It's alright.
You know, we've been working

uh, the moment was

It happens to the best of us.

that never happened?

00:09:06,078 --> 00:09:08,147
>> Devon: Yeah, I think the idea
is interesting, too.
164
00:09:08,214 --> 00:09:10,249
That's what I said to you when
you pitched it to me.
165
00:09:10,316 --> 00:09:12,985
I'm just saying that right now
isn't the best time.
166
00:09:13,052 --> 00:09:14,854
This is our first year as a
company.
167
00:09:14,921 --> 00:09:18,124
We're brand-new, and we're bound
to have some hiccups, some bumps
168
00:09:18,190 --> 00:09:20,293
in the road.
And I think that it's a smart
169
00:09:20,359 --> 00:09:23,296
thing for us to keep a hold of
our cash to be prepared for that
170
00:09:23,362 --> 00:09:26,365
sort of thing and not just take
a big swing at something that
171
00:09:26,432 --> 00:09:28,267
could be a miss.
>> Nate: I think that approach
172
00:09:28,334 --> 00:09:33,973
is unnecessarily defensive and
too conservative.
173
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,977
But I guess it's your call.
I've got to get to another
174
00:09:38,044 --> 00:09:48,087
meeting.
>> Chelsea: Today actually marks
175
00:09:48,154 --> 00:09:51,157
our last episode of the podcast
because our founder,
176
00:09:51,223 --> 00:09:54,493
Billy Abbott, has decided to
focus on his day job.
177
00:09:54,560 --> 00:09:56,829
And I guess that could kind of
be the theme of this whole
178
00:09:56,896 --> 00:09:58,798
episode, right?
Goodbyes.
179
00:09:58,864 --> 00:10:00,166
>> Billy: Mm.
>> Chelsea: How to navigate
180
00:10:00,232 --> 00:10:02,835
them, what you can learn from
them.
181
00:10:02,902 --> 00:10:04,203
>> Billy: Yeah.
And you know what?
182
00:10:04,270 --> 00:10:07,740
Goodbyes don't always have to be
heart-wrenching and tragic.
183
00:10:07,807 --> 00:10:11,444
You know, they can be civil,
amicable, maybe even a little
184
00:10:11,510 --> 00:10:12,611
uplifting.
>> Chelsea: Yeah.
185
00:10:12,678 --> 00:10:14,046
Actually, this isn't the first
time Billy and I have said
186
00:10:14,113 --> 00:10:15,348
goodbye.
I mean, we've parted ways
187
00:10:15,414 --> 00:10:17,216
before.
>> Billy: That is true, but we
188
00:10:17,283 --> 00:10:19,218
don't have to get into that
right now.
189
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:21,153
>> Chelsea: Except, you know,
the audience might be intrigued
190
00:10:21,220 --> 00:10:23,022
by the fact that, you know, we
were an item once, you know,
191
00:10:23,089 --> 00:10:24,724
once upon a time.
>> Billy: Well, that -- Yeah,
192
00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:26,325
that -- that was a long time
ago, Chels.
193
00:10:26,392 --> 00:10:27,593
>> Chelsea: True.
It's ancient history.
194
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:30,463
Not sure why I brought it up.
>> Billy: I don't know. Maybe --
195
00:10:30,529 --> 00:10:33,833
Maybe because with goodbyes
there is a sense of loss.
196
00:10:33,899 --> 00:10:38,504
But there's also room for new
beginnings.
197
00:10:38,571 --> 00:10:42,408
>> Chelsea: Mm-hmm.
>> Billy: And I guess that is
198
00:10:42,475 --> 00:10:45,544
time to wrap it up.
>> Chelsea: Well, I'll let you
199
00:10:45,611 --> 00:10:48,481
say the final goodbye.
>> Billy: Okay.
200
00:10:48,547 --> 00:10:53,986
Um, look, I just want to say
that this has been an amazing
201
00:10:54,053 --> 00:10:56,555
experience.
I've learned a lot.
202
00:10:56,622 --> 00:10:59,458
And I really want to thank each
and every person that has
203
00:10:59,525 --> 00:11:01,527
listened.
I wouldn't have been able to do
204
00:11:01,594 --> 00:11:04,630
it without you.
So, thank you for your time.
205
00:11:04,697 --> 00:11:08,868
I'm gonna miss it.
And with that, I will say
206
00:11:08,934 --> 00:11:16,275
goodbye for now.
[ Button clicks ]
207
00:11:16,342 --> 00:11:18,377
>> Billy: [ Chuckles ]
>> Chelsea: That was good,
208
00:11:18,444 --> 00:11:21,981
right?
>> Billy: Yeah.
209
00:11:22,048 --> 00:11:25,951
Yeah. It was great.
>> Nick: [ Sighs ] Vick seems
210
00:11:26,018 --> 00:11:29,055
good to me, Dad.
Strong and focused.
211
00:11:29,121 --> 00:11:33,125
I don't think it's an act.
>> Victor: I tend to agree, but
212
00:11:33,192 --> 00:11:36,028
what do you think about all the
eagerness with which she is
213
00:11:36,095 --> 00:11:39,298
suddenly making all these
acquisitions?
214
00:11:39,365 --> 00:11:42,201
>> Nick: I think she's a little
overzealous in her desire to
215
00:11:42,268 --> 00:11:44,904
remove any stain Ashland left on
her or Newman.
216
00:11:44,970 --> 00:11:50,509
But I totally get it.
I mean, he absolutely humiliated
217
00:11:50,576 --> 00:11:53,913
her -- and not just once.
Now, she was able to get some
218
00:11:53,979 --> 00:11:58,217
payback by getting you back your
money from Ashland.
219
00:11:58,284 --> 00:12:03,823
But she did love him, Dad.
>> Victor: Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay.
220
00:12:03,889 --> 00:12:07,960
Her taste in men, i tell you,
has always been her Achilles'
221
00:12:08,027 --> 00:12:09,728
heel.
>> Nick: Vick's got a lot to
222
00:12:09,795 --> 00:12:12,798
prove to herself right now.
When she came back from New York
223
00:12:12,865 --> 00:12:16,769
and she said she wanted things
to be different, I know she
224
00:12:16,836 --> 00:12:18,270
meant it.
>> Victor: Yeah, I just wish we
225
00:12:18,337 --> 00:12:20,406
had been able to get
Ashland Locke out of town before
226
00:12:20,473 --> 00:12:22,608
his demise.
But things are the way they are,
227
00:12:22,675 --> 00:12:25,678
aren't they?
And if your sister wants to
228
00:12:25,744 --> 00:12:32,685
prove herself, let her prove
herself in spades.
229
00:12:32,751 --> 00:12:36,422
>> Adam: I was fortunate enough
to stumble across a certain
230
00:12:36,489 --> 00:12:42,428
police report.
>> Sally: How do you stumble
231
00:12:42,495 --> 00:12:45,331
across a police report?
>> Adam: Well, that part isn't
232
00:12:45,397 --> 00:12:48,100
important.
What is in it is what matters.
233
00:12:48,167 --> 00:12:50,636
The report details the
investigation into Ashland's
234
00:12:50,703 --> 00:12:52,905
death.
And it includes a lot of
235
00:12:52,972 --> 00:12:56,542
evidence against Victor that
Chance willfully ignored.
236
00:12:56,609 --> 00:12:59,111
And it's evidence that needs to
come out.
237
00:12:59,178 --> 00:13:01,447
>> Sally: Damn it.
Adam, for a minute there, I
238
00:13:01,514 --> 00:13:03,749
thought you were actually being
sincere and straightforward with
239
00:13:03,816 --> 00:13:05,518
me.
You don't need a sympathetic
240
00:13:05,584 --> 00:13:07,052
ear.
You need help taking down
241
00:13:07,119 --> 00:13:08,754
Victor.
No, you used our history and
242
00:13:08,821 --> 00:13:10,589
what we once had to work me over
again.
243
00:13:10,656 --> 00:13:13,392
>> Adam: Okay, look, I will
admit that I needed you to
244
00:13:13,459 --> 00:13:17,196
listen long enough to tell you
what is going on.
245
00:13:17,263 --> 00:13:19,999
But that doesn't change the
facts with a huge possibility
246
00:13:20,065 --> 00:13:23,169
here.
This is a gold mine of a story.
247
00:13:23,235 --> 00:13:25,504
It's the kind of story that
could make a young media mogul's
248
00:13:25,571 --> 00:13:28,174
career.
And I'm willing to give you all
249
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,444
the evidence you need to run it.
All you have to do is publish
250
00:13:32,511 --> 00:13:34,513
the truth and reveal to the
world my dad's cover-up.
251
00:13:43,756 --> 00:13:47,193
>> Devon: Hey, you know that my
opposition to the music festival
252
00:13:47,259 --> 00:13:49,995
idea has nothing to do with any
personal issues between me and
253
00:13:50,062 --> 00:13:52,364
Nate -- 'cause I said the same
thing to you about my concerns
254
00:13:52,431 --> 00:13:54,333
that it would be stretching our
company too thin.
255
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:58,003
>> Lily: Yes. Yes, you did.
But you also said that we should
256
00:13:58,070 --> 00:14:01,240
explore it more, which is
exactly what Nate did.
257
00:14:01,307 --> 00:14:04,310
And he's right.
You haven't looked at the data.
258
00:14:04,376 --> 00:14:07,313
So, can you give it a little bit
more consideration?
259
00:14:07,379 --> 00:14:10,616
>> Devon: Absolutely, I can.
I don't have a problem doing
260
00:14:10,683 --> 00:14:12,518
that.
And this is not some kind of
261
00:14:12,585 --> 00:14:15,254
attack on Nate, either.
This is just business.
262
00:14:15,321 --> 00:14:17,923
Our company is doing well and
it's stable right now and I'd
263
00:14:17,990 --> 00:14:20,826
like to keep it that way, not
risk at all by exceeding our
264
00:14:20,893 --> 00:14:24,964
grasp.
>> Billy: Are we okay?
265
00:14:25,030 --> 00:14:26,398
>> Chelsea: We're good.
I promise.
266
00:14:26,465 --> 00:14:29,435
>> Billy: Okay, 'cause I don't
want this to be awkward at all.
267
00:14:29,501 --> 00:14:32,171
>> Chelsea: It's not.
It won't be.
268
00:14:32,238 --> 00:14:34,940
But I meant what I said before.
Can we just never bring this up
269
00:14:35,007 --> 00:14:37,042
again, please?
>> Billy: Well, yeah, of course
270
00:14:37,109 --> 00:14:41,313
we can, but we have been so
great at being open and honest
271
00:14:41,380 --> 00:14:43,115
with each other, both on and off
the air.
272
00:14:43,182 --> 00:14:44,984
I'm just not sure that's the
best way to handle this.
273
00:14:45,050 --> 00:14:49,121
>> Chelsea: It is. For me.
>> Billy: Okay.
274
00:14:49,188 --> 00:14:51,924
>> Chelsea: And truly, Billy, I
wish you the best of luck back
275
00:14:51,991 --> 00:14:53,325
at your COO position.
I do.
276
00:14:53,392 --> 00:14:58,897
>> Billy: Thank you, Chels.
And, listen, I will, uh, pack
277
00:14:58,964 --> 00:15:02,067
this up and send it wherever you
need it, you know, wherever you
278
00:15:02,134 --> 00:15:03,669
want to set up shop so you can
continue the podcast.
279
00:15:03,736 --> 00:15:04,937
>> Chelsea: I've been thinking
about it.
280
00:15:05,004 --> 00:15:07,773
Um, I think doing the podcast by
myself -- it's just not gonna
281
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,009
work.
>> Billy: Come on.
282
00:15:10,075 --> 00:15:12,878
You're really good at this.
And if this is about flying
283
00:15:12,945 --> 00:15:15,547
solo, we have a whole list of
people that you can work with
284
00:15:15,614 --> 00:15:17,650
at Chancellor-Winters.
>> Chelsea: You've really looked
285
00:15:17,716 --> 00:15:19,752
out for me, and I appreciate you
having me back and having such
286
00:15:19,818 --> 00:15:24,290
faith in me, but, um, it just
wouldn't be the same.
287
00:15:24,356 --> 00:15:27,693
>> Billy: Okay.
Do you mind me asking what
288
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,462
you're gonna do next?
>> Chelsea: [ Sighs ] It's just
289
00:15:30,529 --> 00:15:34,433
something I'm gonna have to
figure out on my own.
290
00:15:43,842 --> 00:15:47,646
>> Nick: Hey.
Glad I ran into you.
291
00:15:47,713 --> 00:15:51,717
Feels like a brand new day, huh?
>> Chance: I wish it did, Nick.
292
00:15:51,784 --> 00:15:54,086
Thought we were all gonna be
able to move on from all this,
293
00:15:54,153 --> 00:16:01,994
but something's happened.
>> Nick: I thought the case was
294
00:16:02,061 --> 00:16:03,796
closed and we were out of the
woods.
295
00:16:03,862 --> 00:16:06,832
>> Chance: Yeah, well, someone
got their hands on all the
296
00:16:06,899 --> 00:16:09,401
evidence that I uncovered about
the events the night Ashland
297
00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:13,038
died.
All of the evidence.
298
00:16:13,105 --> 00:16:16,442
>> Nick: [ Sighs ] How?
They read the police report you
299
00:16:16,508 --> 00:16:22,014
filed?
Who we talking about?
300
00:16:22,081 --> 00:16:25,684
Adam.
>> Sally: You're right.
301
00:16:25,751 --> 00:16:29,088
If Victor orchestrated a
cover-up, it would be one hell
302
00:16:29,154 --> 00:16:30,356
of a story.
>> Adam: No, no, no, there's no
303
00:16:30,422 --> 00:16:33,325
"if" about it.
I'm not asking you to take my
304
00:16:33,392 --> 00:16:35,427
word for it.
I can show you a police report
305
00:16:35,494 --> 00:16:38,797
that proves all of it.
>> Sally: If I publish this
306
00:16:38,864 --> 00:16:44,036
story, it is the end of my
career at Newman Media.
307
00:16:44,103 --> 00:16:46,905
>> Adam: Do you really want to
work for a company owned by a
308
00:16:46,972 --> 00:16:50,609
man who staged a car crash to
cover up the fact that his
309
00:16:50,676 --> 00:16:54,346
favorite son killed his
daughter's ex-husband?
310
00:16:54,413 --> 00:16:57,049
>> Sally: What?
>> Adam: I told you it was
311
00:16:57,116 --> 00:16:59,284
juicy.
>> Sally: You actually expect me
312
00:16:59,351 --> 00:17:03,355
to believe that Nick murdered
Ashland?
313
00:17:03,422 --> 00:17:06,625
>> Adam: It was an accident.
Ashland was threatening
314
00:17:06,692 --> 00:17:09,428
Victoria, and to protect her,
Nick punched him.
315
00:17:09,495 --> 00:17:12,464
>> Sally: Yeah, I knew that he
hit him, but I thought that's as
316
00:17:12,531 --> 00:17:15,501
far as it went.
>> Adam: Well, apparently he
317
00:17:15,567 --> 00:17:18,871
inherited dear old dad's boxing
skills because one punch is all
318
00:17:18,937 --> 00:17:21,540
it took.
He hit Ashland, he hit his head
319
00:17:21,607 --> 00:17:24,209
on the fireplace in just the
right spot, and the miserable
320
00:17:24,276 --> 00:17:26,979
bastard died.
>> Sally: Oh, my God.
321
00:17:27,045 --> 00:17:29,348
>> Adam: Yeah.
Well, good riddance, as far as
322
00:17:29,415 --> 00:17:32,418
I'm concerned.
>> Sally: But this -- this
323
00:17:32,484 --> 00:17:34,153
sounds like a clear-cut case of
self-defense.
324
00:17:34,219 --> 00:17:35,454
So, why would Victor cover it
up?
325
00:17:35,521 --> 00:17:39,024
>> Adam: Because the chess
master cannot resist playing
326
00:17:39,091 --> 00:17:41,627
the game.
As far as I know, my siblings
327
00:17:41,693 --> 00:17:45,130
had nothing to do with this.
It was all dear old dad, and the
328
00:17:45,197 --> 00:17:51,537
story should reflect that.
>> Sally: This is insane.
329
00:17:51,603 --> 00:17:56,041
>> Adam: It's also potentially
award-winning, Sally.
330
00:17:56,108 --> 00:17:58,710
Okay, look, even if my family
cans you, there's gonna be a
331
00:17:58,777 --> 00:18:01,313
bunch of other media companies
that will be dying to hire you.
332
00:18:01,380 --> 00:18:04,183
>> Sally: I am skeptical that
anyone would want to hire
333
00:18:04,249 --> 00:18:06,418
someone who goes after their own
boss.
334
00:18:06,485 --> 00:18:07,853
>> Adam: I think you'd be
surprised.
335
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,656
I think people would really
respect the fact that you did
336
00:18:10,722 --> 00:18:12,558
the right thing.
>> Sally: I'm not sure it is the
337
00:18:12,624 --> 00:18:14,660
right thing.
>> Adam: What my father did was
338
00:18:14,726 --> 00:18:17,796
blatantly wrong.
He used his power and his
339
00:18:17,863 --> 00:18:19,731
influence to interfere in the
justice system.
340
00:18:19,798 --> 00:18:22,134
He should face repercussions
for that.
341
00:18:22,201 --> 00:18:24,036
>> Sally: Okay, but what about
Chance?
342
00:18:24,102 --> 00:18:27,673
Because if I publish this story,
it also exposes his complicity.
343
00:18:27,739 --> 00:18:31,910
>> Adam: He was complicit.
I confronted him with what I
344
00:18:31,977 --> 00:18:33,812
knew.
I gave him the opportunity to
345
00:18:33,879 --> 00:18:37,483
fix it on his own accord.
He flatly refused.
346
00:18:37,549 --> 00:18:40,185
>> Sally: So now Chance has just
become someone else you're
347
00:18:40,252 --> 00:18:44,356
willing to throw under the bus
in your battle against Victor?
348
00:18:44,423 --> 00:18:53,131
Like you did with me?
>> Adam: I didn't toss you
349
00:18:53,198 --> 00:19:01,106
aside, Sally, okay?
I protected you, not only when
350
00:19:01,173 --> 00:19:07,513
it comes to your job, but to the
all-out war I am about to start.
351
00:19:07,579 --> 00:19:12,751
[ Sighs ]
>> Sally: So you finally
352
00:19:12,818 --> 00:19:13,819
admitted the truth.
353
00:19:26,198 --> 00:19:27,866
>> "The Young and the Restless"
will continue.
354
00:19:47,152 --> 00:19:50,289
>> Nate: Devon just cannot help
himself.
355
00:19:50,355 --> 00:19:55,193
No matter what I'm advocating
for, if I say "A," he says "B."
356
00:19:55,260 --> 00:19:58,597
And it's especially frustrating
because I cannot tell what the
357
00:19:58,664 --> 00:20:03,635
hell is going on with him, why
he's being so antagonistic and
358
00:20:03,702 --> 00:20:06,271
can't give me the slightest
opportunity.
359
00:20:06,338 --> 00:20:08,273
>> Elena: And I get it.
You want to make your mark with
360
00:20:08,340 --> 00:20:11,109
the company.
But I guess I'm still trying to
361
00:20:11,176 --> 00:20:15,147
understand why you're so angry
about all of this.
362
00:20:15,213 --> 00:20:20,586
>> Nate: [ Sighs ]
Maybe the reason I'm so upset is
363
00:20:20,652 --> 00:20:27,125
because I was looking forward to
this next chapter in my life,
364
00:20:27,192 --> 00:20:30,996
joining the business world and
working with family.
365
00:20:31,063 --> 00:20:33,765
It was going to be my second
act.
366
00:20:33,832 --> 00:20:37,836
But it's becoming nothing but
frustration.
367
00:20:37,903 --> 00:20:44,076
>> Elena: But if it really is
just trouble and conflict and
368
00:20:44,142 --> 00:20:48,380
you feel like there's no way to
actually figure anything out and
369
00:20:48,447 --> 00:20:52,684
find a solution, then maybe it's
not worth it.
370
00:20:52,751 --> 00:20:57,689
Maybe you should just walk away.
>> Devon: Billy. Hey, man.
371
00:20:57,756 --> 00:20:59,625
I look forward to hearing your
last podcast with Chelsea.
372
00:20:59,691 --> 00:21:01,627
>> Billy: Yeah. Cool. Thank you.
>> Devon: I'll see you guys.
373
00:21:01,693 --> 00:21:02,594
>> Billy: Later.
>> Lily: Bye.
374
00:21:02,661 --> 00:21:06,632
So, how'd it go?
Is the audience gonna shed a
375
00:21:06,698 --> 00:21:12,070
tear when they realize that you
and Chelsea are parting ways?
376
00:21:12,137 --> 00:21:23,482
>> Billy: [ Sighs ]
>> Chloe: Hey there.
377
00:21:23,548 --> 00:21:29,221
>> Chelsea: Oh. Hey.
>> Chloe: Is everything okay?
378
00:21:29,287 --> 00:21:34,092
>> Chelsea: I'm fine.
>> Chloe: I was going to meet
379
00:21:34,159 --> 00:21:37,162
Kevin here, but it doesn't look
like he's here yet.
380
00:21:37,229 --> 00:21:39,798
You want to talk?
>> Chelsea: [ Sighs ] I've just
381
00:21:39,865 --> 00:21:41,566
had a hard day.
I don't have the energy to get
382
00:21:41,633 --> 00:21:45,570
into it with you again.
>> Chloe: I wasn't trying to
383
00:21:45,637 --> 00:21:48,774
start anything.
I just want to make sure that
384
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,277
you're alright.
Did something happen?
385
00:21:52,344 --> 00:21:54,646
>> Chelsea: [ Sighs ]
I don't want to get into the
386
00:21:54,713 --> 00:21:58,417
details.
I just, um...
387
00:21:58,483 --> 00:22:03,221
I messed up.
And I feel really stupid.
388
00:22:03,288 --> 00:22:07,826
>> Chloe: Oh. Um...
Okay, well, if there is anything
389
00:22:07,893 --> 00:22:10,062
I can do to help...
>> Chelsea: Thank you.
390
00:22:10,128 --> 00:22:16,201
>> Chloe: I'm sorry things have
been not so great between us
391
00:22:16,268 --> 00:22:19,404
lately.
You know I still love you,
392
00:22:19,471 --> 00:22:22,007
right?
The whole idea behind us not
393
00:22:22,074 --> 00:22:25,143
working together was to protect
our friendship.
394
00:22:25,210 --> 00:22:28,213
So just remember that I'm here,
ready to listen and offer
395
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,384
whatever support I can.
>> Chelsea: Thanks.
396
00:22:32,451 --> 00:22:36,788
It just feels like lately I,
um -- I just can't catch a
397
00:22:36,855 --> 00:22:41,093
break.
[ Sighs ]
398
00:22:41,159 --> 00:22:42,494
I think I'm just my own worst
enemy.
399
00:22:42,561 --> 00:22:46,598
So, fortunately, I'm afraid
there's nothing you or anybody
400
00:22:46,665 --> 00:22:55,741
can do to help.
>> Sally: What I suspected all
401
00:22:55,807 --> 00:22:59,077
along was true.
[ Scoffs ]
402
00:22:59,144 --> 00:23:03,115
I asked to know the truth, and
now I -- I really don't even
403
00:23:03,181 --> 00:23:08,420
know why I wanted to know.
>> Adam: Look, I -- I never
404
00:23:08,487 --> 00:23:11,656
wanted to hurt you, Sally.
>> Sally: I mean, you couldn't
405
00:23:11,723 --> 00:23:13,959
trust me enough to let me all
the way in, could you?
406
00:23:14,025 --> 00:23:17,529
>> Adam: Would you have gone
along with my plan?
407
00:23:17,596 --> 00:23:19,164
Or would you have tried to talk
me out of it?
408
00:23:19,231 --> 00:23:22,200
>> Sally: What difference does
it make now?
409
00:23:22,267 --> 00:23:24,903
>> Adam: You said that our
relationship was more important
410
00:23:24,970 --> 00:23:27,839
than this job.
I couldn't risk it.
411
00:23:27,906 --> 00:23:31,309
>> Sally: So, in other words,
you didn't respect my
412
00:23:31,376 --> 00:23:34,546
priorities.
[ Scoffs ]
413
00:23:34,613 --> 00:23:37,048
>> Adam: You said that you were
afraid to publish the article
414
00:23:37,115 --> 00:23:40,252
about my dad's cover-up because
you might lose your job.
415
00:23:40,318 --> 00:23:42,654
And you know what?
I think that that shows that now
416
00:23:42,721 --> 00:23:45,390
you've had a chance to sit in
that CEO chair, you've realized
417
00:23:45,457 --> 00:23:48,160
that it is an opportunity of a
lifetime and it would be a
418
00:23:48,226 --> 00:23:51,763
mistake to give it up.
>> Sally: Wh-- That is so
419
00:23:51,830 --> 00:23:55,967
patronizing and smug.
Do you expect me to tell you
420
00:23:56,034 --> 00:23:58,870
that you know what's best for me
and to thank you for what you
421
00:23:58,937 --> 00:24:01,339
did?
>> Adam: You told me that you
422
00:24:01,406 --> 00:24:03,975
wanted me to be honest.
So, now you're upset that I'm --
423
00:24:04,042 --> 00:24:07,913
I'm telling you everything?
>> Sally: I thought for some
424
00:24:07,979 --> 00:24:10,348
reason that hearing the real
reason why you dumped me would
425
00:24:10,415 --> 00:24:16,588
give me some closure.
I wanted to believe that what we
426
00:24:16,655 --> 00:24:22,327
had was something special.
>> Adam: We did, Sally.
427
00:24:22,394 --> 00:24:27,299
We did.
I guess I'll be honest about
428
00:24:27,365 --> 00:24:31,703
that now, too.
>> Sally: Part of me actually
429
00:24:31,770 --> 00:24:34,206
thought that we could come back
from this.
430
00:24:34,272 --> 00:24:37,209
>> Adam: [ Sighs ]
>> Sally: But now I see that
431
00:24:37,275 --> 00:24:41,713
we -- [scoffs] I personally
need to just give up on that
432
00:24:41,780 --> 00:24:49,120
dream because vengeance always
comes first for Adam Newman.
433
00:24:49,187 --> 00:24:54,326
You know, I never wanted you to
protect me.
434
00:24:54,392 --> 00:24:58,563
All I wanted was your trust.
But you just couldn't risk
435
00:24:58,630 --> 00:25:01,299
losing your chance at revenge
by confiding in me.
436
00:25:01,366 --> 00:25:02,534
>> Adam: Look, can I just say
something?
437
00:25:02,601 --> 00:25:05,237
>> Sally: No. No, you can't.
No, because nothing you say now
438
00:25:05,303 --> 00:25:06,838
is gonna matter.
It's not going to change
439
00:25:06,905 --> 00:25:08,640
anything.
What you said before was true.
440
00:25:08,707 --> 00:25:11,243
The words don't matter.
I see you.
441
00:25:11,309 --> 00:25:13,578
>> Adam: Mm.
>> Sally: I understand you.
442
00:25:13,645 --> 00:25:18,884
I know that you have one
priority, one singular goal --
443
00:25:18,950 --> 00:25:22,954
going after Victor.
[ Scoffs ] And I personally
444
00:25:23,021 --> 00:25:25,257
think it's gonna be your
downfall, but that is all on you
445
00:25:25,323 --> 00:25:27,959
now.
So, you know what?
446
00:25:28,026 --> 00:25:31,529
[ Exhales heavily ]
Thank you very much for the
447
00:25:31,596 --> 00:25:35,834
scoop, but I'm not about to make
you any promises or deals.
448
00:25:35,901 --> 00:25:42,307
The days of me doing what you
wanted -- they're over.
449
00:25:42,374 --> 00:25:54,319
I do what I want now.
[ Door slams ]
450
00:25:54,386 --> 00:25:55,387
>> Adam: [ Sighs ]
451
00:26:02,661 --> 00:26:04,296
>> Nate: You think I should just
walk away from
452
00:26:04,362 --> 00:26:07,432
Chancellor-Winters?
>> Elena: I mean, you've been so
453
00:26:07,499 --> 00:26:12,804
frustrated lately.
>> Nate: I am.
454
00:26:12,871 --> 00:26:18,310
And I appreciate you listening
to me vent, but I'm not ready to
455
00:26:18,376 --> 00:26:20,946
give up entirely.
I made a commitment to my
456
00:26:21,012 --> 00:26:24,516
family, and I want to honor
that.
457
00:26:24,582 --> 00:26:26,785
And if I did leave, where would
I go?
458
00:26:26,851 --> 00:26:29,721
>> Elena: You could always go
back to medicine.
459
00:26:29,788 --> 00:26:32,624
Don't you miss it at all?
>> Nate: Listen, I mean, I
460
00:26:32,691 --> 00:26:34,893
closed that door and it can't be
reopened.
461
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,129
>> Elena: I'm sorry, but I don't
agree.
462
00:26:38,196 --> 00:26:42,067
I think the door can open and
close both ways.
463
00:26:42,133 --> 00:26:45,403
You are incredibly talented, and
you can do whatever you want.
464
00:26:45,470 --> 00:26:51,576
>> Nate: This is what I want --
a career at Chancellor-Winters.
465
00:26:51,643 --> 00:26:58,116
It's off to a rocky start, but
I'm not walking away.
466
00:26:58,183 --> 00:27:03,021
>> Billy: Look, uh, things got a
little, um -- uh, a little
467
00:27:03,088 --> 00:27:06,324
awkward, a little confusing
between Chelsea and I today.
468
00:27:06,391 --> 00:27:10,495
>> Lily: Okay. How so?
>> Billy: Well, um, we were just
469
00:27:10,562 --> 00:27:13,598
doing our thing, you know, our
banter back and forth.
470
00:27:13,665 --> 00:27:16,601
And I think somewhere in there,
we got our wires crossed, and
471
00:27:16,668 --> 00:27:20,505
she -- she took it as something
else.
472
00:27:20,572 --> 00:27:25,210
>> Lily: Something else?
>> Billy: Something more.
473
00:27:25,276 --> 00:27:27,512
>> Lily: Okay.
What exactly happened?
474
00:27:27,579 --> 00:27:29,447
>> Billy: She kissed me.
>> Lily: She kissed you?
475
00:27:29,514 --> 00:27:32,250
>> Billy: She kissed me, and I
set her straight right away,
476
00:27:32,317 --> 00:27:34,085
okay?
I told her that the moment was
477
00:27:34,152 --> 00:27:37,922
misinterpreted, and -- and I
think that she's just feeling a
478
00:27:37,989 --> 00:27:41,926
little lonely.
And, uh -- And, you know, I
479
00:27:41,993 --> 00:27:46,798
think that's what it is.

Please come in.
Have a seat.
484
00:28:05,050 --> 00:28:07,919
You know, I thought the video
conference went rather well.
485
00:28:07,986 --> 00:28:10,288
Are you on board for everything
that we've laid out?
486
00:28:10,355 --> 00:28:12,424
>> Sally: Yeah.
I've already started working on
487
00:28:12,490 --> 00:28:18,830
the things that we talked about.
Unfortunately, I'm here about
488
00:28:18,897 --> 00:28:21,332
another matter.
>> Victoria: Well, what would
489
00:28:21,399 --> 00:28:24,836
you like to discuss?
>> Sally: It has to do with
490

Adam.
>> Victoria: Oh, yes, of course
491
00:28:28,540 --> 00:28:30,708
it does.
Have you and my brother gotten
492
00:28:30,775 --> 00:28:33,011
back together?
>> Sally: No. No, no, no.
493

It's nothing like that.
Believe me.
494
00:28:34,179 --> 00:28:39,217
That is not happening.
But Adam did come to me today
495
00:28:39,284 --> 00:28:42,487
with a proposition.
He claims to have evidence
496
00:28:42,554 --> 00:28:48,226
regarding Ashland's death that
would -- how do I say this? --
497

>> Victoria: Ah, I see.
501
00:29:05,510 --> 00:29:07,145
>> Sally: You don't seem very
surprised.
502
00:29:07,212 --> 00:29:10,315
>> Victoria: I have been dealing
with my brother for a very long
503
00:29:10,381 --> 00:29:12,617
time.
I expected some sort of attack
504
00:29:12,684 --> 00:29:15,353
sooner rather than later.
That's just who he is.
505
00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:19,124
>> Sally: I'm sorry.
>> Victoria: Well, if he risked
506
00:29:19,190 --> 00:29:22,060
showing his hand, then he's
being careless.
507
00:29:22,127 --> 00:29:24,496
So, he either wants the
information about what he's
508
00:29:24,562 --> 00:29:28,066
doing to be out there, or he's
so wounded that he doesn't give

Because we know this isn't about

So, what do you want?

You just want Vick out of the

Is that the goal?
You want to be CEO of

position away from me again.

have the job.

and I have come, you always

in the past that makes you the

victim, when in reality, right
now you're the one making the

killed A.J. Montalvo.

refuse to get, Dad, is you
didn't save me.
544

to terms with all that.
>> Nick: I thought you had, too.

with all the ways Dad has

little, neat box?

How are you coming to terms with
taking a man's life?

00:31:48,773 --> 00:31:51,109
And you're a grown man.
You're not an impressionable

hands.
553
00:31:55,446 --> 00:31:58,383
I hate to say it, but those
feelings that I'm sure you are
554
00:31:58,449 --> 00:32:02,186
having -- they're not gonna
just fade away.
555
00:32:02,253 --> 00:32:05,890
Even I couldn't completely shut
them down, as repressed as mine
556
00:32:05,957 --> 00:32:09,060
were.
To this day, I will still hear a
557
00:32:09,127 --> 00:32:11,329
phrase or I will still see
something that reminds me of my
558
00:32:11,396 --> 00:32:15,533
mother's farm, and it all comes
flooding back, all the pangs of
559

guilt and shame, all the
questions about my own morality.
560
00:32:20,938 --> 00:32:25,543
You know, I ask myself, "When
I killed that man, was it really
561
00:32:25,610 --> 00:32:30,948
an accident, or deep down, did I
want him to go down as hard as
562
00:32:31,015 --> 00:32:33,451
he did?"
See, these are all things that
563

are gonna be bubbling in your
subconscious for the rest of

And as far as Chelsea, I don't
know.
573
00:33:16,961 --> 00:33:21,566
I mean, maybe she's just missing
some sort of connection or she
574
00:33:21,632 --> 00:33:26,070
feels a little bit lost, which I
can understand, you know?

Yes. What have you missed?
Um...there was more tension
582
00:33:55,867 --> 00:33:59,437
between Devon and Nate.
Nate wants to move forward with
583
00:33:59,504 --> 00:34:02,540
the music festival idea, and
Devon thinks that it's too
584
00:34:02,607 --> 00:34:04,909
risky for the first year of our
merger.
585

>> Billy: Yeah, I can see
Devon's point there.

>> Lily: Yeah, I can see both of
their points, but ultimately I
587
00:34:10,481 --> 00:34:13,584
think it's a good idea.
I mean, think what a festival
588
00:34:13,651 --> 00:34:16,487
could do for our company.
I think it's next-level
589

Just seemed like the right thing

to do.
>> Victoria: For the record, I
595

wouldn't trust anything that
Adam says from this point on.

bastard for everything that he
put me through.

that I would be telling you
