fine.

Mom already talked me into a
huge dinner last night and made

me eat a big meal before coming
here, even though she knew I was

she did that?

>> Johnny: Obviously, stuffing
your kid with so much food that

he can't feel anymore is a part
of the handbook.

22
00:01:10,737 --> 00:01:13,973
Well, I was on my way to the
lab, but then I thought, "I'm

gonna come see Noah to start
my day off right."

What do you think went wrong?

lot of people.
31
00:01:34,027 --> 00:01:36,629
And I was figuring I'd take a
hit, but I didn't think it would
32
00:01:36,696 --> 00:01:38,565
be this bad.

>> Allie: Granted, I don't have
any experience running a
34
00:01:41,267 --> 00:01:45,605
business, but giving stuff away
for free seems like a strange

way to generate revenue.

Uh, yeah, that actually seems
like a really smart move.

too, until I realized how it

That man cannot be trusted.

I know technically he may be
Dominic's grandfather, but he
67
00:03:32,712 --> 00:03:35,481
should not be anywhere around

into the station and complained

about all the helicopter noise.

what I'm talking about.

I don't want someone like that
around Dominic.
74
00:03:49,162 --> 00:03:52,198
He could endanger him, or at the
very least, be a negative

think that's a bit much, honey.

really hard on him.

>> Nikki: My heart just breaks
for him.
89
00:04:32,105 --> 00:04:34,741
I mean, this is the kind of
thing that could throw his whole
90
00:04:34,807 --> 00:04:37,644
world into a tailspin,
especially at his age.
91
00:04:37,710 --> 00:04:39,012
>> Victoria: It really has.
92
00:04:39,078 --> 00:04:41,414
It's shaken his foundation.
93
00:04:41,481 --> 00:04:44,484
It's brought up questions that
he never even knew he had until
94
00:04:44,550 --> 00:04:46,519
now.
95
00:04:46,586 --> 00:04:49,355
>> Nikki: Well, I can't begin to
understand how you're dealing
96
00:04:49,422 --> 00:04:55,561
with this, and yet you're
handling yourself with such
97
00:04:55,628 --> 00:04:58,297
poise, as if nothing was wrong.
98
00:04:58,364 --> 00:05:02,769
I am sure that nobody at Kyle
and Summer's vow renewal had any
99
00:05:02,835 --> 00:05:04,303
idea what you were going
through.
100

>> Victoria: Well, believe me,
every second is an uphill
101
00:05:07,473 --> 00:05:09,475
battle.
102
00:05:09,542 --> 00:05:12,679
I just honestly have been trying
to compartmentalize.
103
00:05:12,745 --> 00:05:15,148
And when I'm in work, I lean
into work and get as much done
104
00:05:15,214 --> 00:05:16,883
so I can get home and be with
the kids.
105
00:05:16,949 --> 00:05:19,285
>> Nikki: Well, that can't be
easy with everything going on
106
00:05:19,352 --> 00:05:20,486
at Newman right now.
107
00:05:20,553 --> 00:05:23,256
>> Victoria: It just feels like
everywhere I turn there's an
108
00:05:23,322 --> 00:05:27,060
avalanche of complications
coming at me, at work and in
109
00:05:27,126 --> 00:05:28,327
life.
110
00:05:28,394 --> 00:05:30,496
And it feels like everything is
screaming for my attention these
111
00:05:30,563 --> 00:05:31,698
days.
112
00:05:31,764 --> 00:05:35,234
>> Nikki: No doubt Tucker's
surprise return is one of them.
113
00:05:35,301 --> 00:05:40,640
>> Victoria: Yeah, that is
troubling, especially since
114
00:05:40,707 --> 00:05:43,476
Tucker McCall is always working
an angle.
115
00:05:43,543 --> 00:05:48,481
But right now, I have no idea
what that might be.
116
00:05:54,087 --> 00:05:56,355
>> Nikki: So, what are your
thoughts about Tucker?
117
00:05:56,422 --> 00:05:59,992
Any theories on what angle he
might be working?
118
00:06:00,059 --> 00:06:03,096
>> Victoria: The same angle that
he's always working --
119
00:06:03,162 --> 00:06:06,032
acquisitions.
120
00:06:06,099 --> 00:06:08,434
>> Nikki: And is there some
reason why you think he might be
121
00:06:08,501 --> 00:06:09,702
coming after Newman?
122
00:06:09,769 --> 00:06:10,803
>> Victoria: No.
123
00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:13,940
We're too strong for that, but
he can't be trusted.
124
00:06:14,006 --> 00:06:17,343
Tucker McCall always has an
agenda.
125
00:06:17,410 --> 00:06:20,513
In the past, he went after every
big company in Genoa City, and
126
00:06:20,580 --> 00:06:23,583
while I know he's not coming
after us, I have another plan in
127
00:06:23,649 --> 00:06:26,786
play that I think he might be
trying to sink his teeth into.
128
00:06:26,853 --> 00:06:29,288
>> Nikki: And what plan is that?
129
00:06:29,355 --> 00:06:32,258
>> Victoria: I have it on good
authority that
130
00:06:32,325 --> 00:06:35,294
Chancellor-Winters is about to
go public.
131
00:06:35,361 --> 00:06:38,598
And I have devised a strategy
for Newman Enterprises to swoop
132
00:06:38,664 --> 00:06:42,168
in and become the majority
stockholder.
133
00:06:42,235 --> 00:06:44,937
>> Nikki: And how did you find
out this information?
134
00:06:45,004 --> 00:06:47,039
>> Victoria: It's all thanks to
Nate.
135
00:06:47,106 --> 00:06:49,408
He and I made a deal to work
together while you were in
136
00:06:49,475 --> 00:06:49,976
Los Angeles.
137
00:06:50,042 --> 00:06:52,945
>> Nikki: Really?
138
00:06:53,012 --> 00:06:55,348
Why would he go behind his
family's back?
139
00:06:55,414 --> 00:06:59,018
>> Victoria: Mother, Nate has
become a very savvy businessman,
140
00:06:59,085 --> 00:07:02,288
and he feels that the current
structure at Chancellor-Winters
141
00:07:02,355 --> 00:07:03,923
is limiting his opportunities.
142
00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:07,360
So I told him that I would put
him in charge once we obtain a
143
00:07:07,426 --> 00:07:08,394
majority stake.
144
00:07:08,461 --> 00:07:10,463
>> Nikki: And your father
approves of this?
145
00:07:10,530 --> 00:07:13,266
>> Victoria: Dad's completely
on board.
146
00:07:13,332 --> 00:07:15,201
Nicholas is the only one with
any objections.
147
00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:16,736
He thinks it's too risky.
148
00:07:16,803 --> 00:07:18,871
And I can't lie.
149
00:07:18,938 --> 00:07:21,641
It is a bit of an ethical gray
area.
150
00:07:21,707 --> 00:07:22,875
>> Nikki: Mm-hmm.
151
00:07:22,942 --> 00:07:26,979
Well, I think it might be a bit
of a legal gray area, as well.
152
00:07:27,046 --> 00:07:30,850
>> Victoria: It's a thin line,
but I'm certain that Nate and I
153
00:07:30,917 --> 00:07:34,420
can take care of it.
154
00:07:34,487 --> 00:07:38,791
What's more pressing to me is --
has Tucker McCall come here
155
00:07:38,858 --> 00:07:41,527
because he has the same goal?
156
00:07:41,594 --> 00:07:45,131
>> Chance: Look, I'm sorry, but
you don't think you're
157
00:07:45,198 --> 00:07:46,899
overreacting just a little?
158
00:07:46,966 --> 00:07:48,768
>> Abby: No. I don't.
159
00:07:48,835 --> 00:07:52,238
I have seen the pain and
devastation that man has caused
160
00:07:52,305 --> 00:07:53,739
firsthand.
161
00:07:53,806 --> 00:07:56,275
He's already hurt people that I
love, and I'm not gonna sit
162
00:07:56,342 --> 00:07:59,011
around and allow him to hurt
our son.
163
00:07:59,078 --> 00:08:02,615
And honestly, I mean, I'm a
little annoyed that you're not
164
00:08:02,682 --> 00:08:03,850
supporting me on this.
165
00:08:03,916 --> 00:08:06,752
>> Chance: Look, I just think
you're taking this a little too
166
00:08:06,819 --> 00:08:09,021
far -- because there's something
else that you should know
167
00:08:09,088 --> 00:08:10,122
firsthand.
168
00:08:10,189 --> 00:08:11,991
>> Abby: Okay. What's that?
169
00:08:12,058 --> 00:08:15,428
>> Chance: Well, just because
someone's made mistakes in the
170
00:08:15,494 --> 00:08:19,465
past doesn't mean they can't be
a good parent or grandparent
171
00:08:19,532 --> 00:08:20,499
today, right?
172
00:08:20,566 --> 00:08:23,369
>> Abby: [ Scoffs ]
So now you're talking about my
173
00:08:23,436 --> 00:08:24,570
family?
174
00:08:24,637 --> 00:08:27,173
>> Chance: Look, Abby, all I'm
saying is that I think we need
175
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,977
to keep pushing forward, let go
of the past, focus on the now,
176
00:08:31,043 --> 00:08:33,813
and focus on the future because,
honey, that's all I can handle
177
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,081
at the moment.
178
00:08:35,147 --> 00:08:39,185
My priorities have to be work
and my family.
179
00:08:39,252 --> 00:08:41,554
>> Abby: Well, it's good to know
that your family at least made
180
00:08:41,621 --> 00:08:42,655
the top two.
181
00:08:42,722 --> 00:08:44,857
>> Chance: [ Sighs ] Please.
182
00:08:44,924 --> 00:08:47,260
Please don't start that again.
183
00:08:49,896 --> 00:08:51,898
>> Billy: Okay, smart guy, you
don't have to finish your
184
00:08:51,964 --> 00:08:52,932
muffin.
185
00:08:52,999 --> 00:08:54,600
I'm not going to force-feed you
anymore, alright?
186
00:08:54,667 --> 00:08:55,534
>> Johnny: Thank you.
187
00:08:55,601 --> 00:08:57,136
My stomach says thank you.
188
00:08:57,203 --> 00:08:58,337
>> Billy: Well, good.
189
00:08:58,404 --> 00:09:01,274
And I'll tell your mother to
stop doubling down on the meals
190
00:09:01,340 --> 00:09:02,575
for you.
191
00:09:02,642 --> 00:09:04,844
>> Johnny: Look, I get it.
192
00:09:04,911 --> 00:09:06,579
You guys are just concerned.
193
00:09:06,646 --> 00:09:09,782
But you really don't have to
worry.
194
00:09:09,849 --> 00:09:11,450
>> Billy: Johnny, we're your
parents.
195
00:09:11,517 --> 00:09:12,985
We're always going to worry,
okay?
196
00:09:13,052 --> 00:09:14,720
That's kind of what we do.
197
00:09:14,787 --> 00:09:16,355
We're gonna be protective of
you.
198
00:09:16,422 --> 00:09:19,926
>> Johnny: But I really -- I
don't need protection.
199
00:09:19,992 --> 00:09:23,062
I mean, so, Chelsea's my birth
mom.
200
00:09:23,129 --> 00:09:24,330
Whatever.
201
00:09:24,397 --> 00:09:26,432
I knew I had one. She's it.
202
00:09:26,499 --> 00:09:27,600
I'm over it.
203
00:09:27,667 --> 00:09:29,168
>> Billy: You know, I don't
think it's that simple, buddy.
204
00:09:29,235 --> 00:09:31,470
>> Johnny: You guys are the ones
who are making it so
205
00:09:31,537 --> 00:09:33,639
over-complicated.
206
00:09:33,706 --> 00:09:38,411
I mean, I really just want to
get, like, back to normal.
207
00:09:38,477 --> 00:09:41,647
>> Billy: Well, in my personal
experience, when you don't try
208
00:09:41,714 --> 00:09:45,051
to deal with things, they fester
and they become problems down
209
00:09:45,117 --> 00:09:46,152
the road.
210
00:09:46,218 --> 00:09:49,722
>> Johnny: Yeah, but --
Look, I'm really -- I'm really
211
00:09:49,789 --> 00:09:52,591
not, like, freaked out about it
or anything.
212
00:09:52,658 --> 00:09:58,864
So, if you want me to scream or
cry, I'm sorry, but it's not
213
00:09:58,931 --> 00:10:00,232
gonna happen.
214
00:10:00,299 --> 00:10:02,568
>> Billy: I don't want you to do
anything.
215
00:10:02,635 --> 00:10:05,504
I just want you to know that
we'll be here for you whenever
216
00:10:05,571 --> 00:10:07,773
you need us, with whatever
you're going through.
217
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,544
>> Johnny: I don't want to keep
thinking about this every
218
00:10:11,610 --> 00:10:12,378
single day.
219
00:10:12,445 --> 00:10:16,282
>> Billy: Okay.
220
00:10:16,349 --> 00:10:17,717
>> Johnny: Can we just drop it?
221
00:10:17,783 --> 00:10:22,021
I mean, it's not gonna change
anything, right?
222
00:10:22,088 --> 00:10:24,757
>> Billy: I will tell you this
as many times as I need to tell
223
00:10:24,824 --> 00:10:27,460
you -- nothing is going to
change.
224
00:10:27,526 --> 00:10:29,562
I promise you.
225
00:10:29,628 --> 00:10:32,031
And you also need to know that
no one is gonna force you into
226
00:10:32,098 --> 00:10:33,032
anything, okay?
227
00:10:33,099 --> 00:10:35,067
>> Johnny: Do you really mean
it?
228
00:10:35,134 --> 00:10:36,635
>> Billy: I do.
229
00:10:36,702 --> 00:10:40,039
>> Johnny: I don't want to keep
talking about this all the time.
230
00:10:40,106 --> 00:10:42,008
You said it was my choice.
231
00:10:42,074 --> 00:10:43,843
>> Billy: Absolutely.
232
00:10:43,909 --> 00:10:46,512
>> Johnny: Then I've made my
decision.
233
00:10:46,579 --> 00:10:49,015
So, it's done now, right?
234
00:10:49,081 --> 00:10:50,583
>> Billy: That's right.
235
00:10:50,649 --> 00:10:51,884
It's done.
236
00:10:51,951 --> 00:10:54,086
It's your call.
237
00:11:02,395 --> 00:11:03,596
>> Johnny: Okay, great.
238
00:11:03,662 --> 00:11:06,799
So, it's my choice, and I decide
that I never want to talk about
239
00:11:06,866 --> 00:11:07,566
it again.
240
00:11:07,633 --> 00:11:09,602
>> Billy: Hey, where are you
going?
241
00:11:09,668 --> 00:11:11,070
>> Johnny: School, Dad.
242
00:11:11,137 --> 00:11:12,772
Remember school?
243
00:11:12,838 --> 00:11:14,373
>> Billy: Yeah, I remember
school.
244
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:15,608
I'll give you a ride.
245
00:11:15,674 --> 00:11:18,511
>> Johnny: No, we're actually
meaning at Chancellor Park to do
246
00:11:18,577 --> 00:11:19,912
some sort of nature thing.
247
00:11:19,979 --> 00:11:20,546
>> Billy: Okay, cool.
248
00:11:20,613 --> 00:11:21,414
Well, I'll walk with you.
249
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,149
>> Johnny: Uh, no, we can skip
that, too.
250
00:11:23,215 --> 00:11:24,350
>> Billy: What's going on here?
251
00:11:24,417 --> 00:11:25,651
You gonna be embarrassed of me
when I call out and yell out,
252
00:11:25,718 --> 00:11:27,987
"Johnny, I love you, buddy, have
a good day," in front of all
253
00:11:28,054 --> 00:11:28,821
your friends?
254
00:11:28,888 --> 00:11:29,955
>> Johnny: Don't even think
about it.
255
00:11:30,022 --> 00:11:31,457
>> Billy: How are they gonna
know if I don't announce it
256
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:32,291
to everybody?
257
00:11:32,358 --> 00:11:34,794
>> Johnny: I'd rather they
didn't, Dad.
258
00:11:34,860 --> 00:11:38,197
>> Billy: Hey. Hey.
259
00:11:38,264 --> 00:11:39,532
I love you.
260
00:11:39,598 --> 00:11:41,801
>> Johnny: [ Chuckles ]
261
00:11:55,648 --> 00:11:56,916
>> Allie: Look how many people
262
00:11:56,982 --> 00:11:58,517
showed up for your big opening
night.
263
00:11:58,584 --> 00:12:00,052
It was a great turnout.
264
00:12:00,119 --> 00:12:02,521
>> Noah: Yeah, I was surprised
how many people showed up.
265
00:12:02,588 --> 00:12:05,257
>> Allie: Yeah, everybody was
hanging out, enjoying
266
00:12:05,324 --> 00:12:08,894
themselves, enjoying
the music, the drinks.
267
00:12:08,961 --> 00:12:12,731
I got to say, even in L.A., I've
never experienced anything quite
268
00:12:12,798 --> 00:12:13,232
like it.
269
00:12:13,299 --> 00:12:14,333
>> Noah: Oh, yeah?
270
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,403
I bet you did a lot of clubbing
out in Hollywood, huh?
271
00:12:17,470 --> 00:12:18,804
>> Allie: Okay. Okay.
272
00:12:18,871 --> 00:12:20,806
Don't judge a book by its cover.
273
00:12:20,873 --> 00:12:23,209
I took the occasional study
break.
274
00:12:23,275 --> 00:12:24,276
>> Noah: Mm.
275
00:12:24,343 --> 00:12:26,045
>> Allie: And in my opinion,
this place can rival any
276
00:12:26,112 --> 00:12:28,914
nightclub anywhere.
277
00:12:28,981 --> 00:12:33,652
And I'm sure that, uh, the
people who came from far and
278
00:12:33,719 --> 00:12:38,691
wide to check it out would also
agree.
279
00:12:38,757 --> 00:12:40,893
>> Noah: Far and wide, huh?
280
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:52,271
You, uh -- You're referring to
Audra?
281
00:12:52,338 --> 00:12:53,939
>> Adam: Hi, Sharon.
282
00:12:54,006 --> 00:12:55,374
>> Sharon: Hey.
283
00:12:55,441 --> 00:12:57,409
Um, you want your usual?
284
00:12:57,476 --> 00:13:01,213
>> Adam: [ Chuckles ]
You know what I like.
285
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,985
>> Sharon: Got it.
286
00:13:06,051 --> 00:13:10,556
So, how are things going?
287
00:13:10,623 --> 00:13:14,093
>> Adam: [ Sighs ]
Mnh.
288
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,730
>> Sharon: Ah? [ Chuckles ]
How are you getting along with
289
00:13:17,796 --> 00:13:20,533
Sally these days?
290
00:13:20,599 --> 00:13:23,502
>> Adam: Uh, nothing has changed
since the last time we spoke
291
00:13:23,569 --> 00:13:25,004
about it.
292
00:13:25,070 --> 00:13:27,773
Looks like things are over
between us.
293
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,542
>> Sharon: Yeah?
294
00:13:29,608 --> 00:13:31,944
Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
295
00:13:32,011 --> 00:13:34,180
I thought you two had some
potential.
296
00:13:34,246 --> 00:13:37,750
It seemed like you had a strong
connection.
297
00:13:37,816 --> 00:13:42,655
>> Adam: Well, I thought so,
too, but, um...I guess not.
298
00:13:42,721 --> 00:13:44,557
>> Sharon: Mm.
299
00:13:44,623 --> 00:13:48,694
Hey, by the way, um, I had an
interesting conversation with
300
00:13:48,761 --> 00:13:50,129
Chelsea last night.
301
00:13:50,196 --> 00:13:53,999
And I don't want to alarm you or
anything, but she got me kind of
302
00:13:54,066 --> 00:13:54,867
worried.
303
00:13:54,934 --> 00:13:58,938
Our conversation was rather
disturbing.
304
00:14:14,086 --> 00:14:17,022
>> Johnny: I should have just
waited at Crimson Lights.
305
00:14:29,034 --> 00:14:31,203
>> Johnny: I should have just
waited at Crimson Lights.
306
00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:35,307
>> Chelsea: Hi, Johnny.
307
00:14:35,374 --> 00:14:37,710
I didn't expect to run into you
here.
308
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,724
>> Chelsea: I'm actually really
glad I ran into you because I
309
00:14:51,790 --> 00:14:57,997
want --
Um...I --
310
00:14:58,063 --> 00:15:00,699
I wanted to thank you for all
that time you spent with Connor
311
00:15:00,766 --> 00:15:02,001
at the pool the other day.
312
00:15:02,067 --> 00:15:05,004
He had so much fun with you.
313
00:15:05,070 --> 00:15:07,339
And he -- he really enjoys any
time he gets to spend with his
314
00:15:07,406 --> 00:15:12,811
older...cousin.
315
00:15:12,878 --> 00:15:16,448
He looks up to you, and I really
appreciate how sweet and patient
316
00:15:16,515 --> 00:15:17,316
you are with him.
317
00:15:17,383 --> 00:15:20,052
>> Johnny: You can stop, okay?
318
00:15:20,119 --> 00:15:23,422
I know the truth about him and
you, and it's not going to
319
00:15:23,489 --> 00:15:27,026
change anything because you
are not my mom.
320
00:15:31,030 --> 00:15:34,433
>> Nikki: I can't believe Tucker
would have access to the
321
00:15:34,500 --> 00:15:36,001
Chancellor-Winters board.
322
00:15:36,068 --> 00:15:38,270
Hasn't he been selling off his
assets?
323
00:15:38,337 --> 00:15:40,539
>> Victoria: That whole thing
was a crock.
324
00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:42,775
The only thing that he was
willing to part with was that
325
00:15:42,841 --> 00:15:44,777
Bentley that he tried to give to
Summer and Kyle.
326
00:15:44,843 --> 00:15:46,779
>> Nikki: Ugh, thank God they
didn't accept it.
327
00:15:46,845 --> 00:15:50,082
That gift would have come with a
lot of strings attached.
328
00:15:50,149 --> 00:15:52,885
>> Victoria: Do you think that
he bought Chancellor board
329
00:15:52,951 --> 00:15:54,653
members gifts to get
information?
330
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,423
>> Nikki: I wouldn't put it past
him.
331
00:15:57,489 --> 00:16:00,392
Hey, listen, if you can have a
mole at Chancellor-Winters,
332
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:01,527
so can he.
333
00:16:01,593 --> 00:16:03,996
>> Victoria: Yes, it's possible,
but in my opinion, it's
334
00:16:04,063 --> 00:16:05,464
unlikely.
335
00:16:05,531 --> 00:16:09,635
There is a chance, however, that
Devon made an offhand comment to
336
00:16:09,702 --> 00:16:10,669
his father.
337
00:16:10,736 --> 00:16:12,538
>> Nikki: Oh, I don't think he
would do that.
338
00:16:12,604 --> 00:16:16,041
I mean, it's not like Tucker is
his business adviser.
339
00:16:16,108 --> 00:16:17,843
There would be no reason for
Devon to bring it up.
340
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:19,078
>> Victoria: That's true.
341
00:16:19,144 --> 00:16:22,181
And as far as I know, they've
barely been in contact the past
342
00:16:22,247 --> 00:16:23,382
couple of years.
343
00:16:23,449 --> 00:16:25,517
And besides that, Devon has been
in the corporate world long
344
00:16:25,584 --> 00:16:27,820
enough to know that you keep
something like that under wraps,
345
00:16:27,886 --> 00:16:29,988
especially with someone like
Tucker.
346
00:16:30,055 --> 00:16:32,358
He knows exactly the kind of
person his father is.
347
00:16:32,424 --> 00:16:33,625
>> Nikki: Mm-hmm.
348
00:16:33,692 --> 00:16:37,129
A dedicated corporate raider,
like you.
349
00:16:37,196 --> 00:16:39,231
>> Victoria: Now, don't tell me
that you share the same
350
00:16:39,298 --> 00:16:42,134
disapproving attitude as
Nicholas does because I want to
351
00:16:42,201 --> 00:16:43,669
acquire Chancellor-Winters.
352
00:16:43,736 --> 00:16:45,537
>> Nikki: Not at all.
353
00:16:45,604 --> 00:16:48,874
I am simply saying you cannot
underestimate Tucker.
354
00:16:48,941 --> 00:16:51,510
>> Victoria: Believe me,
I'm not.
355
00:16:51,577 --> 00:16:54,646
Regardless of how Tucker found
out, it would be foolish to
356
00:16:54,713 --> 00:16:56,749
think that he doesn't know
something about the impending
357
00:16:56,815 --> 00:16:57,950
IPO.
358
00:16:58,016 --> 00:17:01,987
>> Nikki: Yeah, well, if he
does, you can be sure that he is
359
00:17:02,054 --> 00:17:04,857
going to make a move to try to
take control of the company.
360
00:17:04,923 --> 00:17:10,195
So I would advise that you keep
your guard up and your eyes
361
00:17:10,262 --> 00:17:11,263
open.
362
00:17:16,902 --> 00:17:19,772
>> Noah: I hope Audra's sudden
appearance hasn't upset you at
363
00:17:19,838 --> 00:17:21,006
all.
364
00:17:21,073 --> 00:17:23,142
I promise I didn't invite her
here, and I no way expected her
365
00:17:23,208 --> 00:17:24,243
to just show up.
366
00:17:24,309 --> 00:17:26,812
Last time we spoke, I was still
living in London.
367
00:17:26,879 --> 00:17:29,114
There's been no communication
since.
368
00:17:29,181 --> 00:17:34,420
>> Allie: I know it's over
between you guys, whether she's
369
00:17:34,486 --> 00:17:39,024
4,000 miles away or just 4.
370
00:17:39,091 --> 00:17:42,694
>> Noah: So, you're -- you're
not concerned?
371
00:17:42,761 --> 00:17:44,296
>> Allie: Not a bit.
372
00:17:44,363 --> 00:17:47,466
In fact, I -- I haven't given it
another thought since last
373
00:17:47,533 --> 00:17:49,301
night.
374
00:17:49,368 --> 00:17:52,471
>> Noah: Well, good -- 'cause
like I said, she's absolutely
375
00:17:52,538 --> 00:17:54,373
no threat to us.
376
00:17:56,408 --> 00:17:58,377
>> Abby: Don't start with what?
377
00:17:58,444 --> 00:18:01,647
>> Chance: Do not read into the
order in which I say things,
378
00:18:01,713 --> 00:18:02,948
okay?
379
00:18:03,015 --> 00:18:05,684
Work, family. Family, work.
380
00:18:05,751 --> 00:18:08,287
You should know now that family
is more important to me.
381
00:18:08,353 --> 00:18:11,523
>> Abby: Well, it hasn't really
felt that way recently.
382
00:18:11,590 --> 00:18:14,526
>> Chance: Abby, it is because I
care so much about this family
383
00:18:14,593 --> 00:18:18,597
that I am just suggesting that
you take a second and consider
384
00:18:18,664 --> 00:18:21,733
whether all this stuff about
Tucker is based on personal
385
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,571
alliances or rivalries -- or if
you actually have our family's
386
00:18:25,637 --> 00:18:27,473
best interests at heart.
387
00:18:27,539 --> 00:18:30,275
Okay? Think about it.
388
00:18:30,342 --> 00:18:31,577
I got to go to this meeting.
389
00:18:31,643 --> 00:18:32,744
I'm gonna be late.
390
00:18:32,811 --> 00:18:35,080
>> Abby: I thought you said your
meeting wasn't for another
391
00:18:35,147 --> 00:18:35,881
couple of hours.
392
00:18:35,948 --> 00:18:37,449
>> Chance: I guess I misspoke.
393
00:18:37,516 --> 00:18:39,618
I don't know.
394
00:18:39,685 --> 00:18:43,489
I got to go now.
395
00:18:45,491 --> 00:18:46,258
Bye.
396
00:18:46,325 --> 00:18:47,292
>> Abby: Bye.
397
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:48,927
>> Chance: [ Smooches ]
>> Abby: [ Sighs heavily ]
398
00:18:55,734 --> 00:19:01,440
>> Adam: You found Chelsea's
demeanor disturbing in what way?
399
00:19:01,507 --> 00:19:06,411
>> Sharon: Well, I don't want to
break her confidence, but I did
400
00:19:06,478 --> 00:19:10,382
tell her that I think she should
get back into therapy.
401
00:19:10,449 --> 00:19:13,185
Whatever Chelsea's juggling
emotionally right now, it just
402
00:19:13,252 --> 00:19:15,454
seems like it's a little bit too
much for her to handle on her
403
00:19:15,521 --> 00:19:16,421
own.
404
00:19:16,488 --> 00:19:18,757
>> Adam: [ Sighs ]
And how did that suggestion
405
00:19:18,824 --> 00:19:19,758
go over?
406
00:19:19,825 --> 00:19:21,493
>> Sharon: Not so well.
407
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:22,661
>> Adam: Mm-hmm.
408
00:19:22,728 --> 00:19:25,297
>> Sharon: But, you know, you
two share a bond because of
409
00:19:25,364 --> 00:19:26,098
Connor.
410
00:19:26,164 --> 00:19:29,034
She might be more open to you.
411
00:19:29,101 --> 00:19:32,738
I think maybe she would be more
open to the suggestion of
412
00:19:32,804 --> 00:19:35,707
therapy if it were coming from
Connor's father instead of me.
413
00:19:35,774 --> 00:19:37,676
>> Adam: Well, unfortunately,
not so much.
414
00:19:37,743 --> 00:19:39,011
I already tried.
415
00:19:39,077 --> 00:19:43,715
It's like the more that I try to
address things with her, the
416
00:19:43,782 --> 00:19:45,517
more she pushes me away.
417
00:19:45,584 --> 00:19:49,121
Last time we talked, we got into
it because she decided to tell
418
00:19:49,187 --> 00:19:51,423
Connor that Johnny was his
brother without me being
419
00:19:51,490 --> 00:19:52,624
present.
420
00:19:52,691 --> 00:19:55,160
Even though we agreed to do it
together, she just decided to
421
00:19:55,227 --> 00:19:56,562
push ahead on her own.
422
00:19:56,628 --> 00:20:00,065
It's like she's in this space
where she just rejects anything
423
00:20:00,132 --> 00:20:02,134
that she doesn't agree with.
424
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,170
And I've just been noticing this
downward spiral of hers for a
425
00:20:05,237 --> 00:20:06,271
while now.
426
00:20:06,338 --> 00:20:08,140
>> Nikki: Yeah. So have I.
427
00:20:08,206 --> 00:20:09,808
>> Adam: Yeah.
428
00:20:09,875 --> 00:20:13,445
And I'm afraid that I am
responsible for her initial
429
00:20:13,512 --> 00:20:15,747
breakdown that she has yet to
recover from.
430
00:20:15,814 --> 00:20:17,182
That's why I want to help her.
431
00:20:17,249 --> 00:20:19,017
I want to help her for her sake
and for Connor's sake.
432
00:20:19,084 --> 00:20:21,987
>> Sharon: You can't put all the
blame on yourself for what's
433
00:20:22,054 --> 00:20:23,622
happening.
434
00:20:23,689 --> 00:20:25,090
>> Adam: I just -- I don't
understand.
435
00:20:25,157 --> 00:20:26,825
I feel like I'm missing
something, like I don't have all
436
00:20:26,892 --> 00:20:28,026
the pieces.
437
00:20:28,093 --> 00:20:30,162
I don't understand how all of
this has led her to have some
438
00:20:30,228 --> 00:20:33,031
new fixation on Johnny.
439
00:20:41,039 --> 00:20:43,241
>> "The Young and the Restless"
will continue.
440
00:21:01,593 --> 00:21:04,663
>> Chelsea: Johnny, of course
not.
441
00:21:04,730 --> 00:21:07,633
I'm not your mother.
442
00:21:07,699 --> 00:21:10,969
Victoria is your mom, and I
would never try to force
443
00:21:11,036 --> 00:21:13,372
anything on you.
444
00:21:13,438 --> 00:21:17,109
>> Johnny: Good.
445
00:21:17,175 --> 00:21:18,944
>> Chelsea: I just...
446
00:21:19,011 --> 00:21:22,247
You know, um, I just thought
since we were already in each
447
00:21:22,314 --> 00:21:25,617
other's lives, I didn't want you
to find out from somebody else
448
00:21:25,684 --> 00:21:28,620
and end up resenting us for
keeping this secret from you.
449
00:21:28,687 --> 00:21:32,891
I didn't want you to wonder
about me.
450
00:21:32,958 --> 00:21:35,360
>> Johnny: So, it was you.
451
00:21:35,427 --> 00:21:38,497
You are why my parents decided
to force this on me now?
452
00:21:38,563 --> 00:21:39,598
>> Chelsea: No.
453
00:21:39,665 --> 00:21:41,867
I mean, it was -- it was
something we decided together.
454
00:21:41,933 --> 00:21:44,069
>> Johnny: But it was your idea
in the first place.
455
00:21:44,136 --> 00:21:48,473
You are why my world feels like
it was just flipped upside down.
456
00:21:48,540 --> 00:21:49,675
>> Chelsea: Johnny, I'm sorry.
457
00:21:49,741 --> 00:21:50,976
That was not my intention.
458
00:21:51,043 --> 00:21:52,144
That was not my intention.
459
00:21:52,210 --> 00:21:54,813
I just -- I wanted you to know
that your birth mother cared
460
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:55,580
about you.
461
00:21:55,647 --> 00:22:01,420
I always have, and I always
will.
462
00:22:01,486 --> 00:22:03,522
[ Sighs ]
And, you know, I mean, this
463
00:22:03,588 --> 00:22:04,656
wasn't just about me.
464
00:22:04,723 --> 00:22:06,825
I thought -- I thought you and
Connor could have a deeper
465
00:22:06,892 --> 00:22:07,826
connection as brothers.
466
00:22:07,893 --> 00:22:11,329
>> Johnny: We're cousins, okay?!
467
00:22:11,396 --> 00:22:15,667
And we know each other plenty.
468
00:22:15,734 --> 00:22:17,402
What about Connor?
469
00:22:17,469 --> 00:22:19,805
Does he know the truth now, too?
470
00:22:24,976 --> 00:22:26,712
>> Sharon: Adam.
471
00:22:26,778 --> 00:22:27,913
>> Adam: Hmm?
472
00:22:27,979 --> 00:22:32,718
>> Sharon: Please don't repeat
this to anyone, but after
473
00:22:32,784 --> 00:22:38,423
talking with Chelsea, I get the
feeling that she's adrift.
474
00:22:38,490 --> 00:22:40,759
She's looking for answers
anywhere she can find them.
475
00:22:40,826 --> 00:22:43,195
She's looking for someone or
something just to make her feel
476
00:22:43,261 --> 00:22:44,329
whole.
477
00:22:44,396 --> 00:22:49,901
>> Adam: Well, based on what
I've seen, that rings true.
478
00:22:49,968 --> 00:22:54,906
>> Sharon: I imagine that Connor
has been a focal point for her.
479
00:22:54,973 --> 00:22:59,678
Ever since he was born, he helps
her feel grounded.
480
00:22:59,745 --> 00:23:03,281
But people and things outside of
ourselves can only help us for
481
00:23:03,348 --> 00:23:06,284
so long if we don't fix what's
going on inside.
482
00:23:06,351 --> 00:23:12,157
And the more and more that
Chelsea gets goes adrift, she
483
00:23:12,224 --> 00:23:14,860
looks around for someone to make
her feel anchored.
484
00:23:14,926 --> 00:23:18,196
And right now, that anchor is
Johnny, and she's clinging to
485
00:23:18,263 --> 00:23:19,297
that desperately.
486
00:23:19,364 --> 00:23:21,299
>> Adam: Yeah, but, Sharon,
that's not fair to Johnny.
487
00:23:21,366 --> 00:23:22,701
>> Sharon: No, it is not.
488
00:23:22,768 --> 00:23:26,605
>> Adam: And it's just as unfair
for her to use Connor to draw
489
00:23:26,671 --> 00:23:27,773
Johnny in closer.
490
00:23:27,839 --> 00:23:30,408
>> Sharon: Well, I don't think
that Chelsea's intentionally
491
00:23:30,475 --> 00:23:33,678
being malicious or trying to be
harmful.
492
00:23:33,745 --> 00:23:36,148
I think she just doesn't really
know what she's doing.
493
00:23:36,214 --> 00:23:39,618
She's trying to stay emotionally
afloat.
494
00:23:39,684 --> 00:23:43,121
>> Adam: Well, then I guess I
can't hold her fully responsible
495
00:23:43,188 --> 00:23:46,658
if she doesn't even comprehend
what she's doing is wrong.
496
00:23:46,725 --> 00:23:49,594
But as much as I'm concerned
about her, my primary focus has
497
00:23:49,661 --> 00:23:55,667
to be shielding my son because I
refuse to let this hurt Connor.
498
00:23:55,734 --> 00:23:57,903
>> Chelsea: Yes.
499
00:23:57,969 --> 00:24:00,172
Connor knows who you are.
500
00:24:00,238 --> 00:24:04,109
I told him shortly after Billy
and Victoria told you about me.
501
00:24:04,176 --> 00:24:04,910
>> Johnny: Mm.
502
00:24:04,976 --> 00:24:08,814
And how'd he take it?
503
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,316
That well? Huh!
504
00:24:11,383 --> 00:24:13,051
Guess that just proves my point.
505
00:24:13,118 --> 00:24:16,721
Having this conversation was a
bad idea all around.
506
00:24:16,788 --> 00:24:20,792
Neither Connor nor I want
anything to change.
507
00:24:20,859 --> 00:24:24,429
So, why don't we just pretend
that we never had this
508
00:24:24,496 --> 00:24:27,866
conversation and bring things
back to the way they're supposed
509
00:24:27,933 --> 00:24:29,034
to be?

00:24:52,724 --> 00:24:53,458
>> Devon: Hey.
515
00:24:53,525 --> 00:24:54,526
Is everything alright with you?
516
00:24:54,593 --> 00:24:55,493
>> Abby: Yes, of course.
517
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:56,528
>> Devon: Yeah?
518
00:24:56,595 --> 00:24:58,430
>> Abby: How did things go with
Tucker last night?
519
00:24:58,496 --> 00:25:00,065
Did he take my hint and just
leave town?
520
00:25:00,131 --> 00:25:01,499
>> Devon: Oh, that was a hint?
521
00:25:01,566 --> 00:25:04,502
[ Both laugh ]
>> Abby: I guess I didn't really
522
00:25:04,569 --> 00:25:07,706
hide my feelings that I truly
detest the man.
523
00:25:07,772 --> 00:25:09,808
>> Devon: Mm, you were far from
subtle.
524
00:25:09,875 --> 00:25:11,309
>> Adam: Mm-hmm. I'm sorry.
525
00:25:11,376 --> 00:25:12,444
I didn't mean to offend you.
526
00:25:12,510 --> 00:25:17,382
I know he is your biological
father, and that makes him
527
00:25:17,449 --> 00:25:20,185
technically Dominic's
grandfather.
528
00:25:20,252 --> 00:25:21,253
Ugh.
529
00:25:21,319 --> 00:25:22,420
>> Devon: Why don't you tell us
how you really feel?
530
00:25:22,487 --> 00:25:24,356
[ Both laugh ]
I'd hate to see your full-out
531
00:25:24,422 --> 00:25:25,657
warnings and threats to people.
532
00:25:25,724 --> 00:25:28,994
>> Abby: So, when I walked away,
was he shaking with fear?
533
00:25:29,060 --> 00:25:30,495
>> Devon: No. Not at all.
534
00:25:30,562 --> 00:25:31,529
Not at all.
535
00:25:31,596 --> 00:25:33,131
The rest of our dinner actually
went really well.
536
00:25:33,198 --> 00:25:36,501
We just talked a lot, talked
about family, talked about him
537
00:25:36,568 --> 00:25:38,670
coming to town to reconnect with
people.
538
00:25:38,737 --> 00:25:39,638
>> Abby: Hmm.
539
00:25:39,704 --> 00:25:41,339
>> Devon: Least that's what he
says he's doing.
540
00:25:41,406 --> 00:25:43,508
I don't know what to make of him
showing up like this.
541
00:25:43,575 --> 00:25:44,309
It's so random.
542
00:25:44,376 --> 00:25:45,543
It's kind of thrown me for a
loop.
543
00:25:45,610 --> 00:25:47,545
>> Abby: Yeah, it was a shock to
everyone.
544
00:25:47,612 --> 00:25:51,082
>> Devon: And from what he said,
he's planning on sticking around
545
00:25:51,149 --> 00:25:52,884
for a while and putting down
roots.
546
00:25:52,951 --> 00:25:56,454
>> Abby: And how do you really
feel about that?
547
00:25:56,521 --> 00:25:58,823
>> Devon: Mnh.
548
00:26:05,297 --> 00:26:08,800
[ Knock on door ]

00:26:14,739 --> 00:26:19,311
>> Billy: I wanted to fill you
in on my morning with Johnny.
551
00:26:19,377 --> 00:26:22,814
I feel like we're making some
progress.
552
00:26:22,881 --> 00:26:23,915
>> Victoria: How so?
553
00:26:23,982 --> 00:26:26,851
>> Billy: Well, his sarcasm is
back and in full effect.
554
00:26:26,918 --> 00:26:28,453
That's for sure.
555
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,088
>> Victoria: That's a good sign.
556
00:26:30,155 --> 00:26:31,523
>> Billy: Yeah, it is.
557
00:26:31,589 --> 00:26:34,225
He was critiquing the
similarities in our parenting
558
00:26:34,292 --> 00:26:35,293
skills.
559
00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:38,129
I guess we're both using food as
a coping mechanism.
560
00:26:38,196 --> 00:26:41,232
I was questioning why he wasn't
finishing his muffin, and he
561
00:26:41,299 --> 00:26:44,002
informed me that you already
force-fed him a massive
562
00:26:44,069 --> 00:26:45,170
breakfast this morning.
563
00:26:45,236 --> 00:26:46,604
>> Victoria: Oops.
564
00:26:46,671 --> 00:26:47,706
Sorry about that.
565
00:26:47,772 --> 00:26:49,607
I forgot that you were meeting
him at the coffeehouse.
566
00:26:49,674 --> 00:26:52,010
>> Billy: It's all good.
567
00:26:52,077 --> 00:26:56,781
He feels less confused and less
angry.
568
00:26:56,848 --> 00:27:01,152
And I'm hoping that this is him
coming to terms with the news.
569
00:27:01,219 --> 00:27:03,421
>> Victoria: I'm really relieved
to hear that.
570
00:27:03,488 --> 00:27:05,323
>> Billy: But don't get me
wrong.
571
00:27:05,390 --> 00:27:10,362
He definitely does not want
anything to change.
572
00:27:10,428 --> 00:27:14,799
And I made him a promise that
nothing would.
573
00:27:14,866 --> 00:27:16,835
>> Victoria: Absolutely.
574
00:27:16,901 --> 00:27:19,537
And I told him the same thing.
575
00:27:19,604 --> 00:27:22,741
I do, however, have one concern.

must tell you that if you keep

that now.

00:29:44,382 --> 00:29:47,051
And judging by last night's
numbers, your warning is pretty
611

that.

about London?

wondering if you came across any

artist funds while you were
there.

couple, but I had really limited

experience.

00:30:42,507 --> 00:30:44,242
>> Nikki: Have you ever heard of
a company called

Private Image Limited?
639
00:30:46,244 --> 00:30:48,179
>> Noah: No, that name doesn't
ring a bell.
640
00:30:48,246 --> 00:30:50,682
>> Nikki: Well, actually,
the fund is called
641
00:30:50,748 --> 00:30:54,919
Wild Beauty, Incorporated.
642
00:30:54,986 --> 00:30:56,521
>> Noah: Why do you ask?
643
00:30:56,588 --> 00:31:00,258
>> Nikki: It's related to some
questions I have about Diane's
644
00:31:00,325 --> 00:31:02,760
time in Los Angeles.
645
00:31:08,166 --> 00:31:10,268
>> Noah: Okay, this is all
sounding a little odd to me.
646
00:31:10,335 --> 00:31:12,437
Why would Diane have anything to
do with the art fund?
647
00:31:12,503 --> 00:31:15,039
She was supposedly living this
quiet life in L.A.
648
00:31:15,106 --> 00:31:17,308
Wild Beauty -- they were
throwing a lot of money around.
649
00:31:17,375 --> 00:31:18,876
>> Nikki: Oh, so, you have heard
of it?
650
00:31:18,943 --> 00:31:21,412
>> Noah: Yeah, I knew someone
who worked there.
651
00:31:21,479 --> 00:31:23,681
>> Nikki: Really?
652
00:31:23,748 --> 00:31:27,018
Was this person a friend of
yours?
653
00:31:27,085 --> 00:31:28,553
>> Noah: Not exactly.
654
00:31:28,620 --> 00:31:31,122
It was the, uh -- the woman I
was seeing in London.

>> Nikki: [ Gasps ] Oh.
656
00:31:32,590 --> 00:31:36,294
The one who --
>> Noah: Yeah. Yeah, that one.
657
00:31:36,361 --> 00:31:38,463
Her name's Audra Charles.
658
00:31:38,529 --> 00:31:41,799
>> Nikki: Well, can you tell me
a little bit about what she did
659
00:31:41,866 --> 00:31:43,568
there, who she worked for?
660
00:31:43,635 --> 00:31:47,405
I mean, it could be very
important, but I-I don't want to
661
00:31:47,472 --> 00:31:48,573
dredge up any bad memories for
you.
662
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,241
>> Noah: Oh, no, no, it's --
it's fine.
663
00:31:50,308 --> 00:31:52,744
Audra was actually already on
my mind.
664
00:31:52,810 --> 00:31:55,680
>> Nikki: Well, I just saw how
happy you and Allie are.
665
00:31:55,747 --> 00:31:58,016
So, why on earth would you be
thinking of your ex?
666
00:31:58,082 --> 00:32:00,551
>> Noah: Well, because suddenly
she's impossible to avoid.
667
00:32:00,618 --> 00:32:02,520
>> Nikki: What do you mean?
668
00:32:02,587 --> 00:32:05,390
>> Noah: Okay, I hadn't seen
Audra since I came back from
669
00:32:05,456 --> 00:32:08,326
London, and then last night
she shows up out of nowhere.
670
00:32:08,393 --> 00:32:10,695
And not only was she in
Genoa City, but she was right
671
00:32:10,762 --> 00:32:12,664
here at the club.
672
00:32:12,730 --> 00:32:15,199
>> Nikki: She came all the way
from London to attend your
673
00:32:15,266 --> 00:32:16,401
opening night?
674
00:32:16,467 --> 00:32:18,903
>> Noah: She said she was here
for other reasons, but -- and
675
00:32:18,970 --> 00:32:21,506
she found out I opened up this
place and wanted to check it
676
00:32:21,572 --> 00:32:22,707
out.
677
00:32:22,774 --> 00:32:26,444
Yeah, but now you're talking
about Wild Beauty, and this all
678
00:32:26,511 --> 00:32:28,012
just seems kind of weird to me.
679
00:32:28,079 --> 00:32:29,447
>> Nikki: Yes.
680
00:32:29,514 --> 00:32:31,816
Very weird.
681
00:32:31,883 --> 00:32:34,886
And very interesting.
682
00:32:34,952 --> 00:32:39,490
>> Devon: Honestly, Abby, I
don't -- I don't really know how
683
00:32:39,557 --> 00:32:42,727
I feel about Tucker coming back
to town, whether it's for a
684
00:32:42,794 --> 00:32:45,263
short period of time or
permanently.
685
00:32:45,330 --> 00:32:47,765
You know, there's nothing bad
between us.
686
00:32:47,832 --> 00:32:49,100
There's no tension.
687
00:32:49,167 --> 00:32:52,337
If anything, there's just been
more distance between us over
688
00:32:52,403 --> 00:32:54,539
the years, which is another
reason why it's so surprising
689
00:32:54,605 --> 00:32:56,708
that he just showed up like
this.
690
00:32:56,774 --> 00:32:59,077
>> Abby: Do you ever wish you
had a closer relationship with
691
00:32:59,143 --> 00:33:00,645
him?
692
00:33:00,712 --> 00:33:04,515
>> Devon: I mean, yeah, of
course I do.
693
00:33:04,582 --> 00:33:08,186
He's my biological father, so I
would -- I would love to have a
694
00:33:08,252 --> 00:33:12,590
tighter bond with him,
especially with Neil being gone.
695
00:33:12,657 --> 00:33:17,295
But at the same time, it's hard
to always trust his intentions,
696
00:33:17,362 --> 00:33:18,663
given his past.
697
00:33:18,730 --> 00:33:21,799
And with Chancellor-Winters
doing so well right now, his
698
00:33:21,866 --> 00:33:24,669
timing is a little suspicious.
699
00:33:24,736 --> 00:33:26,871
>> Abby: Do you think that's why
he turned up so suddenly?
700
00:33:26,938 --> 00:33:32,076
>> Devon: I don't want to think
that, but, you know, it's
701
00:33:32,143 --> 00:33:32,944
Tucker.
702
00:33:33,010 --> 00:33:35,513
And he always has another card
to play.
703
00:33:35,580 --> 00:33:38,783
So I can't help but wonder
what's really going on and what
704
00:33:38,850 --> 00:33:41,886
his real agenda is.
705
00:33:41,953 --> 00:33:44,689
>> Billy: I don't want to
speculate on how Chelsea is
706
00:33:44,756 --> 00:33:48,726
going to react, but I will say
that she seems a lot more
707
00:33:48,793 --> 00:33:51,662
fragile than I have seen her in
a while.
708
00:33:51,729 --> 00:33:53,297
>> Victoria: Come on, Billy.
709
00:33:53,364 --> 00:33:55,967
We both know what Chelsea's
capable of when she's in a bad
710
00:33:56,033 --> 00:33:58,836
place, and it's not our
responsibility to temper that.
711
00:33:58,903 --> 00:34:02,340
The best thing that we can do is
try to keep Johnny as far away
712
00:34:02,407 --> 00:34:03,508
from her as possible.
713
00:34:03,574 --> 00:34:05,910
And in the meantime, I think
that's probably the safest bet
714
00:34:05,977 --> 00:34:07,578
for all of us.
715
00:34:07,645 --> 00:34:10,148
>> Billy: [ Sighs ]
>> Victoria: Billy, Johnny has
716
00:34:10,214 --> 00:34:11,716
got to be our main priority
right now.
717
00:34:11,783 --> 00:34:12,984
>> Billy: I understand that.
718
00:34:13,050 --> 00:34:15,353
>> Victoria: He can't deal with
this kind of turmoil on his own.
719
00:34:15,420 --> 00:34:16,587
We've got to be there for him.
720
00:34:16,654 --> 00:34:20,258
>> Billy: I agree 100%.
721
00:34:20,324 --> 00:34:24,128
But I can't help but be a little
worried about Chelsea.
722
00:34:24,195 --> 00:34:26,931
>> Victoria: Well, then be
worried about her from afar.
723
00:34:26,998 --> 00:34:29,834
Chelsea needs to pull herself
together and stop using our son
724
00:34:29,901 --> 00:34:31,903
as her crutch.
725
00:34:34,872 --> 00:34:36,040
>> Adam: Chelsea.
726
00:34:36,107 --> 00:34:39,644
Hi.
727
00:34:39,710 --> 00:34:40,878
>> Chelsea: Is Sharon here?
728

>> Adam: Uh, she just stepped
back in the back room.
729
00:34:45,950 --> 00:34:48,319
>> Chelsea: What's going on
here?
730
00:34:48,386 --> 00:34:51,122
>> Adam: What do you mean?
731
00:34:51,189 --> 00:34:54,759
>> Chelsea: Are you and Sharon
conspiring against me,
732
00:34:54,826 --> 00:34:56,494
discussing all the things that
are wrong with me?
733
00:34:56,561 --> 00:34:56,961
>> Adam: What?
734
00:34:57,028 --> 00:34:58,162
No. Of course not.
735
00:34:58,229 --> 00:34:59,497
>> Chelsea: Are you all -- What,
you're all working together,
736
00:34:59,564 --> 00:35:00,231
trying to fix me?
737
00:35:00,298 --> 00:35:01,332
Is that why you brought me here?
738
00:35:01,399 --> 00:35:02,266
>> Chance: No.
739
00:35:02,333 --> 00:35:03,734
>> Adam: Chelsea, calm down.
740

or trying to fix you.

Um, we're just -- we're
concerned about you.

concern.

And I don't need your pity.
744
00:35:13,211 --> 00:35:14,679
And I don't need your judgments.
745
00:35:14,745 --> 00:35:17,982
All I am trying to do is spend
some time with my other son.
746
00:35:18,049 --> 00:35:19,450
I want to be a part of his life.

mine!
